Prologue: When dreams come true and are ruined

I had just gotten back from my reunion with my fellow athletes from the olympics. I was in the 100 meter dash and won gold 4 times in a row. I also happened to be a brony as many others were. As i was saying, I had just gotten home when i heard a click and then a pop. I tried to find where it came from, looking all around my 2 story house, but came to no avail. I felt sleep start to take its toll on my body, so I decided it was time to get some rest. I heard that pop again, but I let it be, as I was probably just some wires or something. I soon felt my self succumb to sleeps endless pull on my body.

I had no dreams that night, just darkness.

I eventually woke up in my velvet bed, (as I was a fairly rich person from all the fame of an olympian) as a flash blinded me. A loud thunder crash scared me, was it raining? Then some sort of sinkhole opened in my bedroom, or more specifically under me, causing me to fall into the hole in the ground. a sudden stop on grass made me realize that I had just hit the ground below, or so I thought as I blacked out.

I woke up in a very soft bed. my eyes were covered, even though I could see very clearly the inside of my bandage. I tried to move my left hand to remove the bandage, but was held down by what felt like a pair of hooves. as i mentally screamed at was was on my left arm, i felt something warm grasp the bandage. the bandage was then covered in a sparkle like air and lifted off me. when i opened my eyes, I saw a pair of eyes staring back at me, being a color of eyes I didn't know existed; Sky blue.

seven creatures were in the room, but i couldn't recognize them due to my eyes being slightly blurry. Then a voice came up.

"Hm... so the creature you somehow summoned is awake now, princess twilight."

Did I just her the voice say princess twilight, as in the princess of friendship in MLP Friendship is Magic?

"Is he ok? nurse red heart?" The voice that sounded just like twilight sparkle.

"his anatomy is similar to a pony, so he was fairly easy to do surgery on. I think he is waking up right now" the voice that I concluded had to be nurse Redheart.

"where the hell is this place?!" I shouted in a slightly loud voice.

"oh hello my names twilight sparkle! your are in the land of Equestria! I accidentally summoned you when I was practicing a new teleportation spell."

"You have got to be kidding me." I said with frustration.

"No sir, or are you a female? anyway yes you are in Equestria, and if I may ask, what is you name?" twilight said with enthusiasm.

"Equestria... with the ponies right? I think i just died of happiness if thats true! oh, my name is Wyatt," I said with a smile, starting to get up and stand out of the bed I now knew was a hospital bed.

"Hi wyatt! is it ok if i run a few tests on you so i can learn about your species? what do you call your species anyway?" twilight sparkle questioned me.

"Can we go to a place that not in a hospital?" I said with a small laugh.

"Sure!" she said as we start to head off to her castle.

interrogation and exploration

As me and the pony twilight sparkle arrived at her castle with a slow pace, I spoke up.

"Wow! I never thought your castle would be so big!" I exclaimed.

"uh... how did you know that this was my castle?' twilight questioned.

"Oh.. um I had a dream about it?" I said quickly lying to hide the truth about their world and ours.

"Strange. The magic in Equestria must have caused that." twilight pondered.

"Sure, I guess." I said sarcastically.

Twilight opened the door. I couldn't believe this. I was living my dream. Entering twilights castle, in equestria! All of a sudden, I realized what was going on, as the lights were off. That could only mean one thing. total silence for like 3 seconds, just long for me to express my feelings of what was about to happen.

"Twilight! Duck!" I quietly shouted, as the lights came on.

"Whaaaa...." she didn't get to finish because of the craziness that just happened as Pinkie Pie jumped on top of me, and the party starting, knocking me to the floor.

“Hiya! my names Pinkie! I've never seen you around here before! what your name?!" she shouted into my face with a smile so happy it could kill.

"Pinkie! get off of Wyatt! he just got back from the hospital! you could hurt him." she said with a look of care in her eyes.

"uh, pinkie pie right?" i questioned.

"Howd you know my last name?" she was practically vibrating.

"Lucky guess?" i said, with my secret hidden away.

"Hm...okie dokie lokie!" pinkie pie exclaimed.

" If Pinkie pie threw you a Party, get ready to dance bro!" a stallion that I recognized as Soarin, but I said nothing, also wondering what he was doing in Ponyville. As he was clearly drunk on what seemed to be be hard apple cider, I left him be. The party kicked into full swing, bass booming, everyone dancing in one way or another.

“Hey, twilight!” I shouted barely over the bass.

“Yes Wyatt?” she responded.

“Can I go see someone?” I questioned.

“Do you know them?” she responded.

“I’ve heard of her...” I said once again sarcastically.

“So it’s a her?” she smirked.

“Yeah, I heard someone talking about her as we walked to your castle.” i spoke.

“Oh...ok” she said with a sigh. “Go talk to her.”

“Thanks” at least she didn’t try to pry who it was.

As I walked up through the crowd, people noticed me and pushed me further, then stopping in front of pinkie pie.

“ Oh hi! Oh-my-gosh I almost forgot!” she paused for a second,“everyone! It's time to ask Wyatt questions!” she screeched.

I was instantly pushed up to the front. The music turned down, and the DJ left the stand to stand in the crowd.

“Okay! Who wants to ask Wyatt FIRST!” Pinkie said into the microphone.

This went on for a while.  They asked about my personal life, and the subject of relationships was brought up.

“Any more questions?” i asked.

A bunch of ponies I recognized raised their han-er whooves.

“Okay um, you with the blue mane!”

“How come a handsome stallion like you hasn't gotten a marefriend yet?!”
