It was late a night in Ponyville, the foals were sleeping under the warm hug of their blankets, helping them to relax after the tiring day of going to school and later play with their friends. Their parents were also resting, resting with their special somepony after a taxing day of work doing what they love with the people they care for. The animals were resting for they felt peace, they only knew peace because the only danger they knew was on the Everfree Forest and it never went beyond that. The equestrians were happily sleeping under Luna's protection and her beautiful silver moon, embracing everything in Ponyville into a feeling of safety, security and peace for that was what all of Equestria felt under the wise rule of their princesses, for they always knew what was best for their ponies and they always cared for them, for Celestia and Luna, their ponies were everything and they would constantly try to help them in everything they could. And after centuries of struggles and practice, Celestia (and later on, Luna) learned how to maintain their ponies into Harmony for they knew nothing else but the joy of seeing their little ponie happy with their lives, never worrying over things that didn't affected their lives and the best proof of all of that harmony was being shown in this particular night in Ponyville, for everypony were resting in this lovely night. All of them, except for one pony that was still up in her wooden house, a library, practising new spells and learning the ways to protect Equestria with the same providence as her master, confident and second mother has been doing over the course of centuries in Equestria.

This pony in particular (so enthralled in learning about how to govern a kingdom) had a violet coat, it was soft and silky with signs of hiding a beauty that would only be shown to that one who tried to show her the ways of true love. She had a purple mane with a pinkish stripe, her mane was smooth and it was always being moved by the wind whenever it touched her for she always used the best protectors for her mane and coat. She had a tattoo (also called cutie Mark by the ponies) on her flank that was a purple star with six tips, it symbolized her specialty with magic, a field that was one of the most researched but still one of the biggest mysteries in the kingdom of Equestria. She had wings common of a Pegasus, capable of soaring over the strongest storms, ready to be tamed and send her to the highest altitudes so she could see the magnificence of Equestria. She had the strength of the Earth Ponies, capable of understanding the ground and ready to use it for everypony's benefit, capable of breaking through the stronger rocks and capable of taking down the strongest opponents. She had the horn of a Unicorn, whose power was as limited as her understanding of the world, showing how far she would be taken through knowledge, wisdom and patience. Her face (while showing the signs of tiredness for over 2 days of being awaken) showed a fire unlike any other, a fire common of those heroes of the past that would fight Discord himself for the protection of anything that was good and noble, she had the fire of a youth desiring to take the torch of wisdom and integrity so she could keep on leading her friends into the prosperity she has always known, it was the fire of passion capable of going over the harshest obstacles just to achieve the impossible, it was the fire of a dedication capable of enduring the strongest hardships just to obtain the holy knowledge that was needed to save the others from the dangers of ignorance. She had all the features of a new princess of Equestria, eager to learn the ways of the just and become a paladin of justice to protect the ponies of evil like Sombra. While she wasn't sure of when she would be ready to take the mantle of Princess of Equestria, she knew that all she could do for now was to study and prepare herself for when the day would come, she would be ready, for she had everything she needed: The Elements of Harmony, her friends and loved ones and lastly (but not less important), her books, holders of knowledge of all the times avaiable and ready to bring her the information she needed, her name was Twilight Sparkle and with the confidence that comes of too much time without sleeping and not coordinating well enough her thoughts, she decided to give the command that would seal her ultimate fate, the command that would give her the biggest challenge she would ever face in her life, for she said:

"Spike! Fetch me the book 'The History of the Griffonian Empire".

The Library of Ponyville (fountain of knowledge for those who seek it, fountain of boredom to the rest) was still awaken in the middle of this pacific night in Ponyville. Its librarian, the newly formed alicorn Twilight Sparkle, was trying it's best to learn the history of the surrounding nations that borders Equestria. That way she would be preparing herself for the day when the diplomatic missions will come and that way be capable of protecting Equestria diplomatically and building new bridges so everybody could know the meaning of Harmony. But for Twilight Sparkle, reading history wasn't enough this time, she had to do something better, something that would allow her to learn in ways that no other pony has ever attempted. And thus, in her excitement, she decided to use a spell that would allow anypony to watch the contents of a book firstpony.

Sadly for Twilight, because of her drowsiness (created for her lack of sleep for over two days), she overlooked a few factors that, would she has been fully awake, they would have been avoided, thus, making the following tale the more tragic, for she mixed two spells (creating a new type of spell, one that would allow her, not to see, but to travel to the books she decided to. While Spike fetched her the book, she didn't realized that he was too tired and, instead of the history of the Griffonian Empire, he gave her a book about the Multiverse Theory. And lastly, Spike, the only witness and entity that knew what Twilight was trying to do tonight, was so tired that he decided to go to sleep and, since tomorrow was a free day and he already gave Twilight her dinner, he wouldn't wake up until very late tomorrow. With all this factors joint together, Twilight would encounter the best, and worst, moment of her life.

"Alright" she took a moment to yawn.

"I think I have everything I need. Now let's try it out before going to bed", she started to activate the spell, her drowsiness didn't allowed her to start it sooner but, in the end, she managed to do it.

"Just to make sure that the spell works, once tested out, I'll go to sleep, promise". Speaking to no one, Twilight started the spell and for a moment, everything started the way it should: she first felt a little pull, the book said that this pull was normal, since it meant that the book was trying to send her to the moment she wanted to watch. Then, a big portal started to open up, just like the book would say, Twilight went closer to it so she could start to gaze at one moment of history, she saw a big fog at first but overtime, the image started to clean out, showing big buildings and bipedal creatures. Once she saw the bipedal creatures she started to realize that something was amiss.

"Wait", she said, "why are there bipedal creatures in a history book about griffons?" Twilight started to wonder what was going on, why the book was showing those big buildings, those weird creatures and some weird machines instead of Griffons, Twilight wanted to know what was happening and she wanted to stop the spell, but she soon found out that this task was now unstoppable. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't stop the pull, that was getting stronger and stronger as time went on, neither stop the portal from opening each time wider and wider. By this point, Twilight tried to scream but, unbeknown to her, even her voice was getting pulled into the mysterious rift that she opened and once she was pulled inside, she felt the biggest pain she ever had to endure in her life.

It was torture, she felt every single bone on her body being broken piece by piece just so they could be reshaped, some bones were starting to grow and others were starting to leave (like her horn and wings). She felt a burning flame in her skin, like if she was being bathed with acid and cauterized with a flamethrower never had she felt such anguish. To make all of it worse, she could feel her magic being ripped off from her. Her Earth Pony magic, Pegasus magic and Unicorn Magic, they all left her and without it she was now even more vulnerable to pain. This was in so much anguish that her mind wasn't capable of thinking anymore, all she knew now was pain and, not too long after that, mind decided to shut off. Now darkness was her new friend.

August 5th of 2015. Caracas, Venezuela

It was simple afternoon near the station of Bellas Artes (Beautiful arts), a human of 1.80m of height and 60 Kg of weight. Dark hair, dark brown eyes, with a badly shaved beard and a very long hair that wasn't even brushed, which created a mess of a hairstyle, was walking down the street from one of the Bus stops that were located in Bellas Artes, specifically, he was coming back from today's summer class from his college, the USB, and he was now walking to the Metro and, once he could take the subway, he would finally be able to go back to his house and he already had the rest of the afternoon planned: he was going to research a bit more of history, watch some Youtubers like The Fiery Joker and ProJared, he would read some fanfiction, listen a bit of music and, after all that, he may or may not study for tomorrow's class. He already had the rest of his day planned when, suddenly, a girl felled down the sky. Right in front of him.

He looked at the fallen very carefully, while a group of people started to gather after seeing the girl falling as well, and after noting that she didn't had any clothes on, he quickly decided to not look at the zones that he shouldn't look at (more out of respect than any other reason whatsoever) and he then started to think what to do with her. It wasn't an easy decision, after all, should he help her at his own risk or let her be? It could be some kind of trap after all. Luckily for him, the girl fell in an hour where the streets were very populated, so the people started to crowd faster than he could even realize. Perhaps he wouldn't have to do anything, perhaps someone else would do something or at least that was what he hoped, he didn't wanted to deal with it, even if it looked like God wanted him specifically to be the one that would deal with her. He looked at the people and, just as he predicted, they were all trying to think what to do with the girl, always thinking and expecting others to do something, but never taking the initiative. He would call them cowards or pathetic, but that would make him the same thing (after all, he didn't wanted to deal with her and wanted someone else to do it) so he couldn't call them out. Actually, no, screw it, he was a coward, so everybody else were also a bunch of cowards.

"So what will you do?" He looked up and saw that the one who asked was a middle aged woman besides him, he notice that she was in her 60's more or less but she was holding a lot of bags filled with food, he looked at her face and listened to her question again

"Will you take her to a hospital?" asked the elder miss, the coward youngster thought about it, he was the closest to the girl and nobody else looked like in the desire to help her (whether it was for selfishness or for lacking the means to help her, he did not know nor cared). This would block his plans for tonight (very unfair in his opinion) but neither God or his mom would approve of him ignoring a girl in distress, he had to do something.

"I suppose I will... I'll take her to my home so she can have a good rest and once she wakes up I'll ask her what can I do to help her", the old miss was looking at him with a reassuring face and responded:

"I'm so glad to hear that. It's such a good thing that young kids like you can still help a lady in distress, I'm too old and I cannot help her, I can barely help my own family..." she then started to rant about how difficult was to find food for her 3 grandchildren while her daughter and son in law had to pay the electricity and other services. Meanwhile, a faint sound of a motorbike started to get closer to them. It started low, but then it gained strength as the biker grew closer to it's destination. The biker passed in front of the crowd, but only the meticulous young man noticed him. He was starting to get tired of the miss's speech when he suddenly saw the biker stopping in the corner of the street he was going to before the girl fell in front of him. The biker shouted something and then took out a gun and quickly shot a man that was nearby to him. Everybody stopped talking and looked at the murder scene and saw the body falling to the ground, the biker looked at the crowd with a murderous intention, the intimidation worked and the crowd decided to ignore the crime (a few hours later, when the cops would finally arrive and make some questions, nobody would dare to say anything, allowing the murder to be happen with total impunity).

After the biker was gone, the crowd went back to their discussion about the girl, the woman was now talking to another man besides the coward young man. Once the young man of messy hair noticed the man besides him, he quickly stepped closer to the girl and (as subtle as possible) checked his pants to see if his cellphone was still in his pockets, they were.

"Yeah", said the man (with the looks of never having visited a bathroom in his life) that decided to join the conversation, "We all saw the girl falling from the sky, perhaps she's an alien of high position and we could be rewarded for being nice to her, or perhaps she may decide to marry you. Nonetheless, it's a good thing she wasn't noticed by that biker. Who knows what could have happened to her".

Reward... perhaps it wasn't such a bad idea to take her with him, yeah, maybe it would be a good thing if he takes her with him, bye to today's plans, but hello for a potential reward.

"Alright, you convinced me, I'll take her with me and check her up, and once I make sure that she's healthy I'll help her to find her home. After all, she's a lot safer than here", he quickly pointed towards the murder scene, the public turned themselves toward the next street and saw the murder scene, the body was now starting to ooze blood from the head while people simply passed besides the body (avoiding looking at it). The biker was nowhere to be found, already gone from the scene and very soon the cops would come to ask about the body, who knows what they would think about the girl.

"You're all right when telling me to take her, it's not safe in this streets"

"It's not safe anywhere". Interrupted a middle aged man that was close to him.

The young man deeply breathed and tried to be patient towards the man that interrupted him and decided to proceed.

"Besides, the Bible says 'Love your neighbor the same way you love yourself', it wouldn't be a good thing if I leave her here, whether this streets were safe or not". The people looked at him with reassuring nods and approving his attitude, they decided to complement him

"That's the way young man, I'm so glad the young man are so nice and good hearted like you", said the middle aged woman with various bags, the people was now happy with this resolution and left. The middle aged lady, before departing, decided to ask the young man a very important question: "Mister, do you have enough money to take her on a bus? If you don't, then I can give you a bit for her".

The young man assured her that he had enough money (even though he hadn't checked his wallet), calming the lady and making her depart. In that moment, the young man realized that he forgot to check if he actually had enough money to take the bus and quickly took out his wallet to see... and he didn't had enough money for the bus. Now he hoped that the Metro allowed him to take with him a naked woman, otherwise it would be a very long way home on foot. While he was going to the entrance to the Subway, he couldn't avoid looking at the man murdered, he noticed the hole passing through his skull. He noticed that he still had his money, wallet and other belongings with him (quickly understanding the meaning of that). He saw the blood making a puddle besides him and how everybody was ignoring the body, too afraid to do something and too busy with their own problems to even care.

He hated that.

He looked at the young girl and noticed her purplish hair with a natural pink stripe, her face gave an air of innocence that broke his heart, for he knew that it wouldn't last too long. He decided to make sure that, once the day that her innocence would break comes, he would be there to comfort her... if he wasn't the reason of her affliction of course. He proceeded his way and started to think what he would be telling his grandfather once he appeared with a naked girl in the house. Now that was a challenge in itself.

And that way, Twilight would start her new journey into a world that would, very soon, defies everything she knew about right and wrong, a world that didn't knew the word mercy would put her to the test in more ways that she could even comprehend. Now, she was in: Venezuela.

Author's Note

And here it is my third story, from the 3 stories I want to make, this one will be the second longest and the hardest to write. I really hope you like this because it will be something that you may haven't seen before.

I'm also going to try to emulate the style of the books made here in Venezuela (I'll try to emulate the Magic Realism) so you may find here some things different from what you're used to.

If you don't like the way the singer talks in English, don't worry, that's the point.

Tags may be changed over the course of the story
