I Thought You Loved Me?

The Arrival

Load Full Story

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! I heard coming from the side of my bed. I rolled over on my small twin sized bed, the same bed that I had slept in since… well forever if you think about it.

My bed laid on my brown carpet without a bed frame. The mattress was covered by a dark blue sheet, I have three blankets for my bed. One that is a tan blanket with the design of a blue unicorn stitched into it. My second is a tan blanket with the design of forest like bears and moose stitched into it. My last blanket is a light blue sheet really in the design of blue fire. A sheet that I usually wear as toga of blue flames.I also have two pillows for my bed. One which had a cover in the same dark blue color as the sheet that covered my bed. My second pillow was the same size as the first and had a cover that was a dark green background with both logos of the Philadelphia Eagles on it. The Eagles being my favorite team in the NFL.

My room was of average size, being on the second floor of my house in a small township just outside of Salt Lake. My room having a large poster of the Hufflepuff emblem that I made myself with the help of a friend hanging on my wall. Along with a few Eagles merchandise hanged in random places across my room.

I opened my sleepy green eyes to see that it was my phone that was it fact making the sound. The sound coming from the alarm clock that I had programmed into my phone to wake me up.

I grunted in annoyance and stretched out my arm to grab the small plastic device in the low lighting. The sun’s rays just beginning to shine through the semitransparent blanket that I used for a curtain for the small window in my room. The window being right above my head. I used my right index to press the ‘dismiss’ button on my phone alarm clock to stop the stupid beeping coming from it.

I placed my phone back on the small wooden nightstand that was located right next to my bed as I climbed out of bed.

I rubbed my sleepy eyes with the palms of my hands the same thought flying through my mind. “Ugh… why do set an alarm for Saturdays.” I groaned internally. That was when realization had come to me. I instantly grasped for my phone, looking at the time. It was 9:43, and I had realized why I always had an alarm for Saturdays.

“Shit, the finale!” I gasped out loud quickly looking for the remote for the flat screen tv that was a few feet in front of my bed. I quickly found on the side of my bed and I pressed the power button. My tv beaming to live. The tv being originally on the last channel that I had watched before falling asleep last night, that being the news. The morning news on the channel about to end when I turned my tv on. Not interested in the news of the morning I quickly pushed in the channel number for my favorite channel on Saturday mornings, the Hub Channel.

“Hello, you are watching the Hub Channel. Next up is My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.” A commercial on my tv said. In case you are wondering, I am in fact a brony. I have been a brony for a little over a year now. I got a little hell from my family when they found out that I like a show for ‘little girls’, but I didn’t care and I still don’t.

“Morning in Ponyville shimmers. Morning in Ponyville shines. And I know for absolute certain. That everything is certainly fine.” I heard coming from my tv. The central character of the show. Twilight Sparkle. Beginning the episode with a musical number.

“Hmm… a musical number to start an episode. Interesting choice. Eh... maybe it is just a one-time thing.” I thought to myself, placing my hand on my chin as I continued to watch Twilight trot through the streets of Ponyville, continuing to sing her little song.

“Morning in Ponyville shimmers. Morning in Ponyville shines And I know for absolute certain. That everything is certainly…” Twilight sang reaching the end of her song. What seemed like a bucket of water getting dumped on her head. I couldn’t stop myself but giggle at the purple unicorn’s misfortune. Despite Twilight being favorite character of the show. I couldn’t stop myself from admiring this show’s sense of humor.

My internal thoughts were interrupted when I heard Twilight continue to speak.

“Rainbow Dash, that's not funny!” Twilight called up into the sky. “Terribly sorry, darling. I'm afraid I'm... I'm not good with the thundery ones.” Of the character of the show Rarity said. The white unicorn having the cutie mark of the cyan pegasus Rainbow Dash, a tricolored lightning bolt. “Something tells me everything is not going to be fine.” Twilight gasp as the theme song of the show began to play.

“What the hell?” I thought out loud. “Hm… this should be interesting.” I said, regaining focus as the show continued.

The show continued with all of Twilight’s friend's cutie marks getting switched. As mentioned before Rarity with Rainbow Dash’s. Rainbow Dash with Fluttershy’s. A yellow pegasus with three pink butterflies as her cutie mark. Fluttershy with Pinkie Pie’s cutie mark. A pink earth pony with three balloons, two blue, and one yellow. Pinkie Pie with Applejack’s cutie mark. An orange earth pony with three red apples. And finally Applejack with Rarity’s cutie mark, three blue diamond shaped gems.

The episode continued with Twilight finding out that she had accidentally cast a spell on the Elements of Harmony that changed her friend’s cutie marks. Changing their destinies along with them.

“You know… despite being the Element of Magic. Twilight sure does mess up a lot.” I thought to myself as I watched Twilight sing a small song about her screwing up.

Me becoming a little emotional as I watched Twilight lay on her purple staring out the window of her tree house for a home.

The show went to a commercial break with Twilight crying into her bed. I looked down at my phone to see that only about seven minutes had passed.

“Huh, the writers must be planning a lot of stuff in this episode.” I thought out loud, and I had no idea just how much.

The rest of the episode continued with Twilight helping her friends regain her cutie marks through a musical number.

When Twilight was able to return all of her friend’s cutie marks back to their original owner to headed back to her library to finish the spell in the notebook that she had received from Princess Celestia. The notebook being the same book that had changed her friend’s cutie marks in the first place.

“What the hell!” I said after seeing Twilight being consumed by the light. I had heard from fellow Bronies that the third season was going to be the last one, but I hadn’t expected them to end the series by killing off Twilight.

The show went to another commercial break and I look back down at my phone to see that there was still at least one more scene left in the episode.

“Huh, what is the show planning?” I thought, I mean I heard that Twilight was supposed to become a princess in the finale, but I hadn’t taken it that seriously.

The show continued with Twilight earning her wings and becoming a Princess alongside Princesses Celestia, Luna, and Cadence.

The episode ended with Twilight becoming the newest Princess of Equestria.

I liked the episode, I mean it wasn’t perfect. I wasn’t one for the musical aspect of it, but it was alright. I guess.

My thoughts were interrupted when a bright light began to catch my eye. I turned off my TV and looked over toward my closet.

“What the hell?!?” I said, a bright bubble of some kind of light hovering about three feet above the ground.

I had to cover my eyes with my hand as the light only shined brighter. The bubble of light finally exploding in a flash of blinding light.

“Shit!” I exclaimed, shoving my head into one of my pillows. As my vision became filled with whiteness.


On a small green planet in the middle of the Milky Way galaxy a species of intelligent horse-like lifeforms. In the small town known as Ponyville, the horse-like creatures were celebrating the ascension of one of their own into becoming the next princess.

She being a purple pony-like creature with a pair of feathered wings on her back and a single horn sticking out of her head. Her horn allowing to cast magical spells. Her magic taking the form of a magenta aura around her horn.

“Were so happy for you Twi.” One of the alicorn’s, the name of the type of creature on the planet, said to her. The alicorn’s full name being Twilight Sparkle. The pony that was speaking to Twilight being an orange pony without a pair of wings nor a horn of magical power. This subspecies being known simply as Earth ponies.

The pony in question going by the name of Applejack. “Thanks, AJ.” Twilight said to her friend. The rest of Twilight’s friends being present.

Rainbow Dash, a cyan pony with a single pair of wings protruding out of her back similar to Twilight’s, just smaller. Rainbow looking similar to the pegasus ponies from Greek mythology. Rainbow Dash being a tomboyish pony.

Rarity, a white pony with a horn protruding out of her head, similar to Twilight’s, just shorter. Her looking similar to the mythological creature known as unicorns. Rarity being able to use her magic to make fantastic dresses.

Pinkie Pie, a pink earth pony similar to Applejack. Pinkie spending most of her time making other ponies laugh.

Fluttershy, a yellow pegasus pony similar to Rainbow Dash. Fluttershy spending most of her time with her animal friends.
“Thank you all.” Twilight said to the rest of her friends. “I never thought that I would be able to do this. At least, not without you girls.” Twilight said to her friends, small tears forming in her eyes. The purple alicorn embracing her friends in a giant hug.

“You deserve it, Twilight Sparkle.” Twilight heard from an all too familiar voice.

Twilight pulled out of the hug and turned her head toward the voice. The voice coming from her former mentor. Another white alicorn more than doubled her size by the name of Princess Celestia.

“Thank you, Princess.” Twilight said with a slight blush.

“Please Twilight, you may call Celestia for now on.” Celestia said to her former student. Twilight was taken aback by her former mentor words.
Twilight’s thoughts were interrupted by the soft voice of one of Twilight’s friends.

“Twilight… what’s that?” Fluttershy asked Twilight, pointing her yellow hoof at a white ball of light a hovering a few feet above the ground.

“I don’t know.” Twilight said to Fluttershy, cautiously approaching the white object. Having to shield her eyes from the blindly light. “Princess, did you do this?” Twilight asked Celestia, still not comfortable calling the white alicorn by anything other than Princess.

“No, at least, I don’t think so.” Celestia said to Twilight, sharing the same look of confusion as the rest of Twilight’s friends.
Twilight continued to cautiously approach the hovering ball of light.

“Be careful, Twi.” Twilight heard apple say from behind her. Twilight heeded her friend’s warning and slowed her pace slightly, but still continued. Her curiosity getting the better of her.

“What is this thing?” Twilight thought to herself, her extended hoof only about a foot from the ball of light now.

“Touch it, Twi!” Twilight heard a muffled call from one of her friends (most likely Pinkie Pie), her brain completely focused on the ball of light in front of her. Twilight inching closer and closer, like a fly heading toward a fly trap.

When was finally a few inches away from the strange ball of light she couldn’t take the anticipation any longer and she poked it.
At first, the ball didn’t seem to do anything. Only a small ripple forming in the whiteness of the ball.

“Ugh… that was disappointing.” Twilight thought.

That was when the white ball exploded in a flash of blind light.

“AHH!” Twilight cried out as she was consumed by the light.

“Twilight!” All of Twilight’s friends cried out as their friend was confused by the strange ball of white.
When the white light from the ball dissipated Twilight along with the white ball that she touched was gone. The only thing in her place being a scorch mark in the green grass. The scorch mark being some kind of ancient symbol that look like an upside down horseshoe.

Ω


“What the fuck!” I screamed internally. Me robbing my eyes multiple times in a manner just to regain some of my vision. Me unable to see anything but straight whiteness. My ears were also ringing from whatever had exploded inside my room.

“Am I died? Is this what heaven is like?” I asked myself internally. I had never considered myself a religious person, but right now I was beginning to question my choices.

My thoughts about heaven began to leave me as my vision slowly began to return to me. Me only be able to see small flashes of colors. There being many black spots in my vision.
The ringing in my ears had come to a stop and my hearing returned while still muffled. Then I heard something.

“Ah, what happened?” I heard a voice, a female voice. The despite being muffled sounded only a few feet in front of me.

“Ah, my head.” The voice continued, my hearing being completely restored, my vision still blurry.

“Last time I take advice from Pinkie.” The voice said, and my heart stopped.

“Pinkie!” I screamed internally. Then I relistened to the voice again, and it sounded oddly familiar.

As my brain continued to process what was happening to me., my vision was restored, and my mouth dropped in shock.
What was standing in front of me, wobbling back and forth on unsteady legs, was of all the things in this world, was a pony. Not just any normal pony, however.

The pony was, I’m guessing, about four to five feet tall if she was standing straight up. Her coat was a lavender purple and her mane of a darker shade of purple with two streaks of lighter colors, one a lighter shade of purple and another pink. Her tall was in the same color scheme as her mane. The most intriguing figure of her was that she had a single pair of feathered wings coming out of her back, along with a single pointed horn protruding out of her head.

I continued to stare blankly at the purple pony in front of me in a state of silent shock. The pony in her own state of confusion. Her still not noticing me.

When she finally shook the last of the cobwebs out of her system she lifted her head and her purple eyes widened as she laid eyes on me for the first time.

The two of us continued to stare at each other in dead silence. I had no doubt in my mind that the purple winged unicorn pony that was staring back at me was in fact the recently crowned alicorn Princess of Equestria...

Twilight Sparkle!


Author's Note

The first chapter of my Twilicorn story. I hope you all enjoyed, and I am planning on, at least another two-three more chapters in this miniseries.

I know I said that I would make this only a one-shot, but as the story processed I realized that if I include all of the ideas in my head than the story would just be too long.

Twilight has arrived in the human world, what will happen to her. There is only one why to find out. Tune in whenever I decide to write chapter two.

The character 'me' is, in fact, a slightly fictionalized version of myself. Aside from the fact that I can't sleep past about 7 am anymore. I am an Eagles fan, a Hufflepuff, and a Latin student. I will be playing Oceanus in my High School's Ludi Romani. And yes, I really do wear my blankets like a toga. Why, because I'm a Nerd and a Geek, that's why.
