The Human of Equestria
Chapter 5: The Train Ride Up
Previous Chapter"That. Was. Awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, having finished The Avengers movie. I smiled, seeing that the mares enjoyed the movie. "I must admit, the design for Captain America's suit was fabulous. Even if it got very dirty." Said Rarity, smiling.
AppleJack got off the couch, walking into the kitchen. "Mitchell, ya'll got any apples?" She asked. AppleJack likes to eat apples, who would've guessed. I nodded some, getting up off the couch and walking to the fridge. I opened the fridge and got out an apple, tossing it to her.
AppleJack caught it in her hoof and took a bite, enjoying the fruit. Fluttershy was hiding behind some pillows, scared of the aliens in that movie. "I-Is it over?" Stuttered the yellow pegasus. Rainbow Dash sighed and said. "Yes Fluttershy, they won."
Fluttershy peeked out of the pillows. It took sheer willpower to stop myself from 'awing' at the sight. I just realized that Twilight was missing. I looked around, wondering where she went. "Pegacorn? Where'd you go?" I asked, and heard Twilight from the basement. "Down here!"
I walked down the steps, looking at both rooms. I noticed her in the smaller room where my Xbox 1 was. "Twilight? What're you doing down here?" Twilight pointed to the Xbox one and all the wires. "What does this do?" I tilted my head a bit. "You wanna learn about a Xbo--"
A letter suddenly appeared out of thin air and floated in front of her. She levitated it and started reading it to herself. "Um...where'd that come from?" Twilight looked up and responded. "It's a letter from the princess. They get sent right to me."
"Princess? You never told me about a princess." Twilight's eyes widened slightly at this. "Oh, I totally forgot to teach you about Equestria and the monarch system! I have to--- I quickly placed a hand over her mouth prevent her from speaking.
"Ok, ok I get it." She said, her voice muffled from my hand. I took off my hand and Twilight began to speak again. "Celestia says that she wants to meet you in pony." She said, smiling.
Royalty? Wanted to meet me? No one's ever requested to meet me. I nodded a bit, but I must've looked nervous because Twilight spoke up after a minute or two. "Don't worry, she's very kind. She won't do anything to hurt you."
"Well...if you say so. When do I have to meet her?" I asked. And Twilight gave me an answer I wasn't prepared for. "5 hours! And since the train to Canterlot takes about 3 hours, we should leave around now." She said. Your hand glowed purple and using her magic, Twilight dragged you by the hand.

We finally made it onto the train. I showed the girls my iPhone and what it could do. I somehow still had wifi cause...magic I guess. So I let Rainbow Dash watch The Avengers, Age of Ultron while we rode the train.
Besides that not much happened. I got to see the many different colors of the mountains and the fields of grass. Honestly nothing on Earth even compared to the beauty around here. I could get used to this, though I was worried about my family.
"So Twilight, how many pegacorns are there?" Twilight frowned a bit, 'correcting' me. "Alicorns. There are four in total. Princess Celestia, who raises the sun. Princess Luna, who raises the moon. Princess Cadence, who watches over the Crystal Empire. And Me, the Princess of Friendship."
Hearing this, I was shocked. I was about to bow down but Twilight cut me off. "Y-You don't have to bow! I'm not exactly used to the whole Princess thing. Just treat me like your friend!" She said with a smile.
I nodded and got back up, but froze for a second. I looked at Twilight in a confused manner. "Y-You think of me as your friend?" I asked, not believing what she just said. "Well yeah! Why wouldn't I? You showed us some of your interesting things from where your from!"
Rarity continued the conversation, overhearing what we were talking about. "You invited us into your home despite just meeting us." And then, Rainbow Dash finished it. "And you showed us that super cool 'movie' thing!"
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. These ponies were so unbelievably kind. They were amazing, honestly. "Thanks girls." Pinkie shoved a brownie in my mouth, smiling. I just shrugged and tried to chew and swallow down the brownie that was lodged in my mouth.
We finally arrived at Canterlot, upon stepping out, I was immediately surrounded by guards. They didn't look at me, or anything. They just surrounded me like a barrier. Twilight walked up behind me and whispered. "Sorry, it makes ponies around here feel safer." I nodded, whispering back. "Don't worry, if I were a pony and saw a big hairless monkey then I'd run scared too."
We walked through town, I could tell that several ponies were a bit...snobby. They looked at me like some kind of animal who deserved to be locked in a cage and perform for them. Honestly, almost every pony here had a punchable face. I only pray that whatever the princess looks like wasn't as punchable as these ponies.
We walked into the large castle doors, my jaw once again dropped, and Rainbow Dash once again had to lift my jaw for me. We walked through the halls, I looked around at the glass, smiling. The glass seemed to tell some kind of stories. Hell if I knew what they were about.
We finally made it to the throne room. I looked up at the being on the throne. She was tall, but she didn't look that much taller than me. The only way she'd be able to be taller than me would be because of her horn. She walked up to me, giving me a motherly smile and she held out her hoof. "Mitchell, correct? We have much to discuss."
