Unlikely hero

"I am sorry but Nova Gateways are one way and I tried to find your world but I can't find you earth in the multiverse so I am sorry but you are here... Forever" Celestia stated as her ears lowered against her head, a million things were running through Jason's head at that moment, he was trying to figure out how to react, whether to be upset or angry or depressed.

"Well shit" was the only thing he could say as his mind was trying to figure out how to process this information.

"I know it is difficult to work your head around Jason but it's true, I am truely sorry that I can't help you" Celestia added with a frown before she remembered something important "oh that's right, Jason, what is the average life span for your species, and when does it reach maturity?" She asked attempting to change the subject.

"Um what? Oh right um well.its roughly 80-120 I think and usually reach sexual maturity 16-18, why do you ask?" He asked.

"I am just asking because the average ponies life span is Roughly ten times that and same with sexual maturity, how old are you?" She asked the now flabagasted Jason.

"What....How..... Um I'm 25, how can ponies live that long?" He asked getting more confused.

"Well it was due to an event called the Cataclysm, which was in short, the last human in Equestria sacrificing his life to save every race on the planet, the details are vague because it was around the time that I was a young filly but I do know that this human was powerful, magically and physically" she said which caused everyone to look at her in shook. "Oh and before I forget, since just about every time a human has arrived, trouble has followed shortly after, so to get prepared I have assigned Iron Star and Morning Star to train you with swords, spears, axes and hand to hand, and they will be staying at your place with you" she said with a smirk before she teleported away.

'Da fuck?' "Wait what? You two are staying at mine?" He asked the two guards who simply smiled and nodded "well double shit" he sighed before laying back on the hospital bed.

"Don't worry we won't enter your home until you have arrived, we will be staying at a hotel for the night" Morning or Iron said.

"And visiting hours are up so you all can see him tomorrow " Redheart said as she ushered every pony out of the room before she walked back to Jason as hugged him "I am sorry" she said quietly before leaving.

"Thanks" he muttered before he removed his top and sighed before letting himself fall asleep.

(The next morning)

Jason was awoken by the sound of his room's door locking, he slowly opened his eyes to see a hooded figure at the end of his bed, the figure wore black leather armour that reminded him of Skyrims Theives guild armour, it's face was covered up to just below its eyes by a dark cowl, it wore a pair of gauntlets which were dark tinted metal with red gems on the middle of the inside and the outside of its palms, it had a broad sword strapped to it's back, along with several knives on its chest and a dagger on its upper torso, but the most defining features of the figure is one, it's burning ice blue eyes that burnt holes into ones soul and the fact that the creature appeared to be human.

"What? Who.... Who are you?" Jason asked as he sat up.

"My name is not important young one, but what is important is that you have returned..... And so have they" He stated in a low gruff voice before he walked over to next to Jason and unslung his sword which he placed on the bed side table, he then retrieved two envelopes from one of his pockets and placed them with the sword "this sword was your father's and he would have wanted you to have it and these letters are for your eyes and Alicorn eyes only" he said turning to look at Jason "they are enchanted for only those chosen can read it," he added.

"What? My father is back on earth" Jason added looking at the sword then back at the man who simply chuckled.

"I guess he never told you, oh well you will learn the truth soon enough" he stated before fading away second before the door was kicked in and the star sisters entered with sword drawn along with princess Celestia, who managed to only see his outline and his eyes which locked onto the mares "They are returning, so prepare as they will but remember a slayer's intuition is needed to sniff them out" he said before fully vanishing.

"Okay that was creepy, so what the honest fuck is going on?" Jason asked as he got up and got dressed.

"Tha....that was one of the Storm Brothers, they were the first humans to arrive here, they fought to protect Equis from danger, whether it was from war or from evil, they were there, when they entered this world from their's, they bodies were altered to become ageless, which was a gift and a curse. There was three of them, I can't remember their names only what they were nicknamed, the oldest being dubbed the Mimic as he was able to copy and magic that was used against him, the next was dubbed The Fog-Walker, who you just met, he can produce fog or mist from his body which he can manipulate at will and the youngest but no less powerful was The Slayer who was able to kill even immortal beings, but two of the brothers died at the Cataclysm so he is the last" she explained to Jason who simply nodded before grabbing the sheathed sword and letters.

"Right and how am I involved?" He asked looking at the letters and pocketing them for later.

"Well at first I didn't think you would be but now you just may be out only hope" 'well shit, this week just gets better and fucking better'.

"So not only am I trapped in this world, but every adult is at least ten times my age and now I have to fight off an ancient evil?" He asked which Celestia nodded "well fuck I need a drink, and also this seems like one massive set up" he growled as he slung the sword over his shoulder and walked to the now open door but stopped "wait.... Why the fuck are you here Celestia?" He asked her.

"Well I sensed a large power level in your room, I had placed a spell on it so I would know if you were in danger" she said.

"Was it over 9000?" He asked.

"Excuse me?" She replied.

"Sorry just another reference " he said as Redheart arrived and looked at the door then at Jason then at the mares then back at the door.

"I don't wanna know" she said before handing him a clip board and a pen which he filled out "okay your free to go and also here is my number so you can ring me if anything is medically wrong with you or you want to catch up" she said, offering him a slip of paper.

"So you all have mobiles, okay well I don't know if mine will work here" he said pulling out his two phones which were surrounded in a gold aura.

"Now they do, and I also added my number and Iron star's and Morning Star's also, but a question, why do you have two?" She asked him.

"Well one is for personal use like friends and games and the other is for work so all my clients numbers and my schedules are on it" he stated.

"Alright but I never asked, what was you job back on earth?"

"Oh I was a handy man, I was a certified carpenter, electrician, plumber, brick layer and concreter, it was a bitch to get them all but when I did I started my own business in my back water town and seeing as there wasn't really any certified tradies in my town, I made a very decent living" he stated with pride "also I was at uni to become an architect if you were gonna ask" he said.

"Ah do you are gonna be very useful and busy in ponyville" Redheart said which made Jason raise an eyebrow.

"Why do you say that?".

"Well between Rainbow dash's failed stunts that end up her going through a building and basic wear and tear, you will get plenty of business" she replied before she began leading the group out of the room to the main lobby before Celestia stopped and her ears fell against her head.

"I feel like I have forgotten something very important" he said as she rubbed her chin.

(Canterlot, Royal bathing chambers)

Inside the Royal Bathing chambers resides several different bath types, one in particular is designed for Celestia herself as it is about chest deep for her, this is the very bath that Celestia decided to take Luna into to have some bonding time together. Thanks to Luna's condition, her wings and magic aren't strong enough to use and the water comes up to her mouth so her Big sister was holding her above the water in the middle of the bath until she teleported away leaving the weakened Alicorn on a small marble island in the centre of the bath unimpressed.

(PonyVille outside of Jason's house)

"You know I can't for the life of me remember, it must have been nothing" Celestia said with a shrug as Jason began unlocking his door "I have to introduce you to Luna, i think you two would ge..... oh buck" she said teleporting away.

"Um okay" the three remaining uttered before they entered the house.

"Okay so welcome to my place, you rooms are the last on the left and right" he said pointing down the hallway "and while you do that I am gonna check on my stuff" he stated before watching them head to the rooms, after they had left he walked to his fridge and checked that it was working before grabbing a beer. As he sipped his beer he walked to his garage and checked a monitor that he had set up to connect to his solar battery "okay good we have power but I need to reset up the rest of my panels" he muttered before returning to the house and locking the door only to come face to face with a bright orange mare with a steel grey mane and tail in a tank top and shorts and a Hot pink mare with red mane and tail who was wearing a yellow sundress "I'm hello who the fuck are you and how to fuck did you get in my house?" He asked shocked which made them giggle.

"Told you he would have this reaction" the pink one said as the orange one gave her a coin purse "and before you ask I'm Morning and this is Iron"she said with a smile.

"How?" Was Jason's only response.

"Well guard armour is enchanted to make all the guards look identical so they can not be targeted by those who they have had a bad encounter with" Iron said.

"Um okay question? Are you two related?" He asked which they nodded in reply "okay cool I'm want a beer?"

"Sure" they said in unison, Jason walked back to his kitchen with the mares and grabbed them both a beer before a knock was heard at the door.

Jason walked to the door and opened it slightly to see half the mares for the day before "um hello?" He asked keeping the gap minimal so they could only see his face and his body an nothing of his house.

"Hey Jason we went to pick you up from the hospital but Nurse Redheart said you had already been released so we came here to invite you out to the Library" Twilight stated 'something ain't right'.

"Why to the library?" He replied.

"Oh you know to hang out and stuff" she replied.

"Hang out..... At a library?" He asked skeptically.

"Yea it'll be fun" she answered which half of the mares behind her face palmed.

"Right" he said as he started to close the door but she stopped it with her magic.

"Please Jason, we wan to be your friend so can you please come.... That if you want to" Fluttershy asked quietly but cutely which caused Jason to sigh.

"Fine, but that's cheating and I am bringing the stars with me, give me a moment to change " he said closing the door and locking it before they had a chance to ask if they could come in. It's not because Jason didn't like them it was just he didn't trust them and h didn't want his things stolen or broken the door reopened and Jason walked out in shorts, trainers and a superman hoodie, following him out were the two guardmares who hadn't changed. As he was locking the front door he felt something poke his calf causing him to look down at Twilight how was poking his leg sleeve tattoo "having fun?" He asked causing her to jump an nearly impaled his thigh.

"Um I just wanted to know why your leg has a snake coiled around it?" She asked him pointing to the colourful rainbow serpent around his leg.

"Oh that's easy, one of my mates wanted to try doing colour tattoos instead of black and white, so I volunteered, cause one he is my best mate an two shit free sleeve tattoo" he said a he began walking with the group.

"But why a rainbow snake" Skittles asked him.

"Well it's part of his culture, it's called the Rainbow Serpent and it is part of something called the Dream Time" he explained.

"Oh can you tell us more about it or the dream time!" twilight asked with a pen and notepad.

"I can't off the top of my head but I am sure to have a book on it somewhere at my place you can read" he stated which caused her to get a crazy smile before she stopped him.

"Really you have books at you place that I can borrow which are about your world?" She asked hitch he nodded, causing her to wrap her arms around him and squealed happily.

"Buckin' egghead" rainbow dash muttered as Morning and applejack pried Twilight off Jason.

"Um Jason how does tattooing work?" Rarity asked curiously as she eyed his leg.

"Well you get a special needle, add ink then the ink is stabbed into you leg to make a tattoo" he said making all the mares including the guards winch.

"Um excuse me Jason but would that hurt?" Fluttershy asked worriedly

"Oh it hurt a lot, the scales were the worst part as my buddy had to go extra slow while doing it, the second most painfully part was when he was tattooing on my upper inner thigh, let's just say I found out I am turned on by pain" he said rubbing his putter thigh "but my friend did a good job so he was happy and I made him happy and got a awesome tattoo so I'm happy" he chuckle as they arrived at a large oak tree that was a house "well that's new".

"This is the Golden Oak Library, it's also my home" Twilight said, 'why are the lights off? I spidey senses are tingling'.

Twilight opened the door and ushered him in which made him raise his eyebrow "ladies first" he said which caused the mares to raise an eyebrow in confusion, so jason just grumbled and entered only to be blinded by a bright light.

"SURPRISE!!!"
