Arrival

Previous Chapter

Aiden awoke to the feeling of dirt, it was in his face, he felt his own head throbbing with pain, and his throat hurt like all hell decided to pay him a visit, and it tonged his throat. He stood upright, a bit wobbly getting up, he hissed in agony, similar to when he got back from a digital trip, but he immediately shrugged it off. Ignoring the immediate pain he looked around, only to see a forest.

'Let's see, we're in a forest. Heh, my one weakness.', Aiden thought as he checked his surroundings, indeed he was in a forest, and forests were literally out of his turf, the plants were vibrant, very vibrant. The color could only exist in other part of the world, well his world, if any of that shit was actually true.

He took out his phone to see if it was alright, it was... better, bigger, lighter, and the battery could last for a shitload of time, he liked these changes, and it also came with some new things, 'Memory Wipe', 'Berserk', 'Control', 'Reader'. He didn't know what these meant, but these could be of use, he would have to test them out some time. That is when--

Caller: Discord.

'Him again?'

He was hesitant to answer, but once again, his gut told him to answer. He tapped 'Answer', and slowly pulled the phone up to his ear, with the utmost caughtion, he didn't trust him, and he had every right.

"Aiden?", he asked with concern.

"I'm here."

"Good, I Just wanted you to know, thing may get a little odd, and trust me, from your view, that's going to be an understatement.", he spoke with a tone.... a devious one.

"...Why did I see that character from that show, 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'? In my dream, may I add."

"Oh, who was this character?", again he spoke in a tone, with anticipation.

"Discord. Why?"

There was silence, a thick, slimy, eerie silence. Until it was abruptly broken, by Discord.

Inhale,"Oh how do I explain this... ahh, okay, you are in an alternate version of Equestria, you know like Marvel's Earth-616, in this case, it's Equestria-616, that's the original, in the show, here things are a tad bit different. The ponies are humanoid, and magic is real here. And every thing that happened in the show happened here, just with humans. So the reason you saw me, in my real form, was because I was carrying you between dimensions, where Faust was never born, My Little Pony never existed, you died in that car crash, Fallout is actually real, you name it, I was taking you between those realities.", a few moments passed, but to Aiden it felt like years.

Aiden was dumbfound, he was unable to believe how insane this man really was . Either way, it was making his head hurt.

"I honestly don't know whether your crazy, or this is real."

"Oh this is real, head south and you'll see.", Aiden looked to find a star, the sun was thankfully setting, which allowed him to see the stars, specifically Polaris.

"Alright, I'll humor you."

"Good enough for me. Also I put some new features on your phone, like a very strong internet connection, rides still arrive at your whim, and I also put a hideout of yours some where in the nearest town, with unlimited supplies, ammo, and materials, plus a map, and faster loading rate. Toodles.",and with that he hung up.

'Oooooooooookkkaay. Nevermind, if I got a map then I won't need Polaris.

Aiden looked around the sky looking for the sun, so he could tell which way was south, east, west, the whole shebang.

'Didn't he say something about, a map...that's convenient.'

Once more, he pulled out his trusty phone and set a marker for the hideout, it led to the right of Aiden, hopefully out of the forest, Aiden was almost helpless in forests, with the lack of technology around being the reason. He did say he still get cars, cool.

'Car on Demand... Motorcycles... Dirt Bike.'

"You are good to go, your ride is ready."

His map pointed...... right behind him? Turning around, he seriously didn't expect to see his order show up right behind him, and yet... there it was, sitting there waiting for him.

"How the fuck?", he sighed deeply, "I won't even question it!"

Aiden walked over to the the bike, expecting it to be rigged with a bomb, once again to his surprise........ there wasn't? As he qualified it 'safe', he put his leg on the other side of the seat, revved up the engine, and set sail, metaphorically speaking. The map showed he was half-way out of the forest. Then there were the wolves.

'Of course.'
