Paint it Black

"YEEEEHAAAAW!" "Just the good ol boys, never meanin' no harm, beats all you never saw been in trouble with the law since the day they was born,..." I sang my favorite show was on TV the Dukes Of Hazzard, I enjoyed watching this show, not just because of the comedy, not just Daisy, it was that all American muscle car the 1969 Dodge Charger R/T The General Lee, I loved that car cause I was currently building one.

Six months ago I bought a 69 Dodge Charger at a junkyard for $700, it wasn't in pretty bad shape just some paint and some suspension work, it had a 383 in it, but some of the parts were missing, I put a 440 Magnum racing engine that I me and my grandpa bought and built with a 727 TorqueFlite automatic trans in it a while ago, when I bought it was fading code T3 “light bronze metallic” with some rust on it and a torn up tan vinyl top with worn out tan leather upholstery, I did some body work to it and painted it primer black and I'll be repainting it orange next spring and be putting new upholstery in it, I was trying to build the car from how it looked in the first season of the show cause those General Lees were built specially for the show, I had almost everything for the car, the Dixie horn to the decals and the Vector wheels and the Goodrich Radial T/A tires, which I haven't put on yet, right now they are siting in the back seat, I just have black steel wheels and old tires on it for now, plus the wheel well trim and the rocker trim that I bought at a swap meet last month, it also had the trim from the old vinyl top and I decided to leave it on cause it made the car look more beautiful with it on, and a Cobra CB Radio, I kept all that stuff in the trunk cause I figured it would be the safest and easiest place to remember where it all is, I didn't have the paint or the roll cage or the push bar in it cause it was expensive to do I had to save some money to do it.

My folks didn't like the idea of me building it cause they thought it is a waste of time and money, I'm only 20 years old and I had my whole life to work on it.

"You'll never finish this car John!" My mom yelled out at me while was giving the engine a good tune up, My mom looked at me very disappointingly.

"Mom, I will get this car done okay, it's always been my dream to build one of these, you know!" I told her, but she didn't care.

I could tell my mom thought it was a waste of money to buy this car, but it was a once in a life time chance to get or the car was going to the crusher so I bought it at the last second.

I went back inside to relax in the living room and saw my little sister Nicole watching My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, I liked the show cause of its comical references and it's story lines I watched the with her while we were home by ourselves, my folks thought it was weird I watched it as well, I've seen a lot of episodes including the Equestria Girls movies, I practically was a fan or what they call a brony of the show by now, but it didn't bother me.

"Hey Nicole, what episode is on?" I said ruffling her hair.

"The episode where Applebloom wants to stay home alone but Applejack thinks she can't take care of herself so she stays home and get really over protective of her." She replied, I sat on the couch and relaxed and watched the show.

My favorite character from the show is obviously Applejack, she was a fair country girl or pony I should say, I always thought it would be cool if she was a Dukes Of Hazzard fan and they would do an episode where they did a reference from the show on My Little Pony.

Later that day I decided to give the General a test run to see how the tuning in the engine was, the car ran like a jack rabbit racing Richard Petty, I clocked it a 107 on a dirt road, man this thing was fast.

I came to the river edge to let the engine cool off a little then a saw something down the river, it was a dirt pile that was right at the end of the river, an idea came to my mind, I got back in the Charger and drove to where the pile was and figured it was be a fun idea to jump this small river, I mean it was only a 30 foot jump its not that far I'll could easily clear it.

I lined myself up and backed up about a 1/4 of a mile to get some good speed and I put my racing helmet on, my heart was pounding as I revved the engine and then it was the moment truth.

I took a deep breath, "You can do this John." I sighed

I narrowed my eyes and stomp on the gas pedal to the floor and with a roar of the engine the car launched forward, my heart was racing and so was the car a I was hitting 96 mph and I was 20 feet away it was no turning back and then the car hit the ramp.

"YEEEEHAAAAWWW!" I yelled out at the top of my lungs as I took off a hit of joy spread through my body but it suddenly it all went away when the car started to nose dive forward towards the water, then suddenly I felt my entire life flash before my eyes as the car hit the water and started to sink with me in it.

Author's Note

Writers note: I decided to do a My little Pony meets Dukes of Hazzard style story, I'm giving it a shot, Plus a lot of Hal Needham references such as Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, and Stroker Ace, So enjoy my friends.

John is 20 years old and is 6ft 1 and has light brown hair and wears a red plaid shirt blue jeans and cowboy boots

Twilight

I sat in the bushes waiting for Twilight to come but I still wasn't sure what here reaction would be, a person from the human world in Equestria? will she help me get home or will I be stuck here forever, and what will happen to my car.

I decided to go back to the river where my car sunk and to see how deep it sunk down, I could see the CB antenna poking out of the river, it looked like it had only sunk about 6 feet down so it would be to pull out... But how? I wondered, they obviously wouldn't have tow trucks here.

About a hour later I heard hooves clopping towards the spot where I was hiding, I rushed back into the bushes.

"This is where we heard the voice Twilight!" Said Scootaloo.

"Um... Hello?" Said Twilight uncertain.

"Twilight? Is that you." I asked.

"Yes it me, um... who are you?" She asked.

"My name is John, and I need your help." I said.

"Ok I can help you, but could you come out of the bushes so we can see you." She asked.

"Um... Okay if you promise not to be scared or runaway." I said.

"I promise we won't get scared or runaway, we are here to help out in any way we can." She said kindly.

"Okay." I said, I stood up and walked out of the bushes and showed myself to the rest of the Twilight's friends, they all looked at me with wide eyes like they never seen a human before, but Twilight smiled at me.

"Your in a human form." She said, "So you must be from Canterlot High then."

I completely forgot that she was in the human world in the show, but that wasn't the world I was from, I had to tell her that I was from that world so she will think that I came here by accident from that world, but I was here by accident from my world where this is a TV show.

"Yeah I am from Canterlot High." I said.

"How did you get here?" She asked.

"Well I was driving my car through the woods on a dirt road and I tried to jump the river and I crashed into the water and somehow I wounded up here in your world." I told her.

"You crashed your car in the river and that's how you ended up here?" She said trying to think was that possible.

"What's a car?" Said Rainbow Dash confused.

"A car is something that they use to get around in." She explained.

"Don't you people have trains in your world?" Applejack asked.

"Of course we do but cars are more reliable to use for when you need to get somewhere fast and easy." I said.

"Well John, why don't you come back to town with us and we will get you back to Canterlot High, I have a portal to that world." She offered.

I wanted to go home but that was not my real home to go to, I couldn't tell them I wanted to go back to a world where this is a cartoon, and plus I couldn't leave my car here in the river.

"Well I would like to go home but I have to get my car out of the river, cause I put a lot of work into it and I hate to leave it here." I said.

"We be more then glad to help you out John, right ponies!" Said Twilight.

"That's right!" They all said.

"Well let's got to the river and see what we can do to help you." Said Twilight.

We walked down to the river and to show them where the car was.

"So John how do you know Twilight?" Said Spike.

"Well..." I started "Back at Canterlot High all the students talk about you and your mysterious magic powers you have, and the Battle Of The Bands where you and your friends defeated a group called The Sirens, and that big mishap at the Friendship Games with the human Twilight."

Twilight laughed. "That was a weird afternoon where I meet my human self, how is everyone doing back there, is Sunset Shimmer still in the band, and is my other self enjoying Canterlot and how is Principal Celestia?"

There where so many questions I couldn't answer but I tried, "Everybody's fine, no problems there and everything is normal as can be." I said.

"That's good I'd really like to go back there soon and see my Canterlot High friends." She said.

We made it to the river and I pointed out where the car was, "There it is, you can see the antenna sticking out of the water."

"Hmm?." She murmured, it looked like she was coming up with an idea to get my car out. "I've got it, okay it looks like we'll need some rope and a couple of yokes and we'll need Bic Mac here to help as well." She instructed.

I had no idea what their plan was to get my car out but I hope it works, and what really worried me was will I ever get home?

Helping Hooves

We had gathered the tools and equipment to retrieve my car, I took the rope and tied it around my waist and had Big Mac hold the end of it so the current doesn't carry me off, I dove into the water and hooked the rope to the frame of the car and swam inside and put it in neutral so it would be easier to pull out, I emerged out of the water and swam back to shore to help out, I tied the ropes around the yokes of Big Mac and Applejack.

"Ok you ponies ready!?" I yelled out.

"Eeyup." said Big Mac.

"Heave!" I yelled, with a strong pull from both Applejack and Big Mac the car started to move slowly out of the water, we had pulled it about 7 feet out of the water to the shore when it got stuck on something, "Hold it!" I yelled, "I think its stuck on something?"

I dove back into the water to see what it was stuck on, I looked under at the front driver side tire was stuck on a big rock that was blocking it.

I emerged from the water. "It's stuck on a rock!" I said.

"Don't worry John," Said Twilight, "Me and Rarity can use our powers to help you raise it out of the water a little."

And with a purple and blue flash of their horns the car raised up and Big Mac and Applejack started pulling again and at last my car was out of the water.

The ponies looked in awe as they got their first glimpse of an automobile.

"WOW!" Rainbow Dash yelled, "This thing is cool looking."

"Thank You." I said.

"What kind of car is this John?" Twilight asked.

"This is a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T." I announced, "It looks a little rough underneath, well, I get after it with some tools I could fix it right up I guess."

"Front looks a little banged up." Said Applejack. "I could help you strightin' it out." She offered.

"Thanks Applejack." I said.

I opened the driver side door and a wave of water fell out, I looked inside the car and everything was ruined the CB, the decals and the upholstery were all wet and ruined I was bummed, "Oh no!" I cried.

"What's wrong John?" Whispered Fluttershy.

"My CB radio is wet, my decals are ruined and so is my upholstery." I sighed.

"You know John, we can fix all this stuff for you." Said Twilight.

A bolt of hope spread through me, "Really!? You can do that for me?" I asked.

"Of course we can," She said "I can fix your... radio, and Pinkie Pie can paint your decals on the car, she's good at painting, and Rarity can make you some new upholstery.

"Oh cool, thank you girls so much for helping me out." I cheered, "Do you ponies have a place where I can stay and work on my car?" I asked.

"Ya'll can stay at the farm with me and my family John." Said Applejack.

"Really?" I asked.

"Sure ya can, you can put your... car in the barn and work on it." She offered.

"Okay." I said. "Now all we have to do is get the car to your barn and I can get workin' on it."

I tied the ropes to the front of the car and got behind the wheel to steer it and with the help of Big Mac and Applejack they pulled the car to Sweet Apple Acres.

Sweet Apple Acres

On the way to Sweet Apple Acres the Cutie Mark Crusaders wanted to ride in the car on the way there, I opened the car door and helped them in and told them to be careful in there.

"Wow," Gasped Scootaloo, "This is awesome, it's like 20% cooler on the inside, how fast can this thing go?" She asked,

"Really... Fast." I simply said.

"Faster than Rainbow Dash!?" She asked.

"Not that fast but pretty fast." I said.

As Applejack and Big Mac pulled and I steered the car the rest of the ponies walked next to the car examining it all over, I looked at my surroundings, Equestria was beautiful, if people could see what I'm seeing they would think this place would be a perfect place for children to be where everypony is really nice and you could not have to worry about pollution and war.

"Hey what does this button do?" Scootaloo asked pointing at the horn.

"That's the horn." I said, "But I don't think you should..." Suddenly Scootaloo pressed the horn but I did nothing, that was a bad sign that meant the battery in the car was dead, "Oh no!" I cried.

"What's wrong John?" said Twilight.

"The battery for the car is dead." I said.

"Don't be upset with my magic I can fix your car up in a jiffy for you to make it easier." she said, after she said that I was relieved that she could do that for me.

We made it to Sweet Apple Acres, Big Mac opened the barn door up and pushed my car inside, the girls watched as I walked around the car looking at the damage that was made, the hood was dented but was fixable, the front control arm was cracked but that can be welded back together, I popped the hood to check the engine out.

"Whoa!" gasped Rainbow Dash, "What's that?"

I turned to her with a smirk on my face, "That Rainbow Dash is a 440 Magnum 4 barrel V8 by Mopar Performance engine, pumps out at least 475 horsepower." I announced.

"That's a lot numbers." Said Twilight.

"Horse... Power?" Said Applejack confused.

"Oh, That means its a unit of measurement at the rate of how much power the engine puts out." I stated.

"Why is the word "horse" used in it." Pondered Rainbow Dash.

A million things went through my head about that question, "I'm not sure?" I shrugged.

I turned back to my engine and gave it a once over check of everything, then I unscrewed the wingnut on the air cleaner and took it off and noticed something.

"Ah, no wonder I didn't make the jump." I said, the carburetor was not set up properly, I wasn't getting enough fuel to the engine, I didn't tighten a seal all the way so that made air fill up in the line, giving me a lower count of horsepower.

I went to the trunk and got out my tool box, and also notice that I didn't have enough weight in the trunk and that's why the car nose dived into the river, Just when I was about to start working on the control arm a purple glow of light surrounded my car, I turned around to see Twilight using her magic to repair my car.

"Twilight what are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm using a reverse damage spell to fix your car." She said.

I watched as the dents on my car straightened out, "Wow!" I said in awe, the magic worked on every thing the damaged axle, the wet interior and the dented up front end, after she was done I inspected the work she did for me, everything was perfect.

"You did a great job Twilight!" I said.

"Thank you John and your welcome, happy to help." She said.

I opened the door and noticed that the seats were cleaned, but I wanted to take the black leather out and put tan leather in instead, then an idea came to my mind.

"Excuse me Rarity," I asked Rarity turned around and looked at me, "Do you think you could change the upholstery in here to a light tan if you could." I asked.

Rarity walked over and look at the interior, "Hmm," She hummed seeing what she was going to work with, "I most certainly can help you out, what are you looking to have?" She asked.

"Well... what I want is the seats, the carpet, the vinyl dash and the roof in here a nice saddle tan, if you could do that." I asked.

Rarity took some calculations in her head on what to do, and she gave me her estimation.

"Well, it will take some time but I will do it for you." She said.

"OH, why thank you Rarity." I said with joy.

"But I work for money, not for free, okay?" She stated.

And it was like a punch in the stomach, I didn't have any money! "Um Rarity a little problem though, I don't really have any money right now, but I can work for it if you have any work?" I asked.

"Actually I do have a job for you that you can help me with." She said.

"Okay sure, what do I need to help you with?" I said.

"Well, I'm expecting a shipment of fabric and materials on the train from Manehatten tomorrow, and it's a lot for me to get back the boutique in one trip and I was wondering if you could use that contraption of yours to pick it up for me and bring it back to the shop, and I'll be more than glad to re-upholster your... your... car for free, if you could do that for me darling." She said.

"Okay... I guess I can help you with that." I said, Rarity went inside and did some more inspecting, I turned around and saw Spike on the hood of the car holding his head up staring at Rarity with hearts in his eyes, now I knew Spike had a very strong crush on Rarity and I know he never could express his feeling for her in front of anyone or anypony or even her.

I tapped Spike on the shoulder, "Hey, you like her huh?" I asked.

"Uh... umm... I.. I.. Umm..." He muttered.

I put my hand on his shoulder, "Hey it's okay your secret is safe with me." I said.

"Say John," Said Twilight, "Shouldn't we get you back home to Canterlot High I'm pretty sure that your friends are wondering where you are." She said.

I had to say something so I came up with a false story, "Well I don't have to get home right now, it's summer vacation back home and as far as anyone knows I'm out of town on vacation as well." I said hoping that will work.

"Ok John," Said Twilight "As long as your friends know your out of town and you we can get home as well you can stay here as long as you want." She finished.

"Sweet." I simply said.

"Ooh, ooh whats this do!?" Said a giggly voice, I knew that was Pinkie Pie, then a loud beep came form the car and scared Spike half to death and he ran out of the barn faster than Rainbow Dash and then Dash started to laugh.

"Oh boy Spike if I would have known that you could ran that fast, I would challenge you to a race any day." She laughed.

"Ooh, how bout this button!" Said Pinkie.

"Eastbound and down loaded up and truckin',

Pinkie Pie turned on my CD player.

Oh we gonna do what they say can't be done,"

"Ooh, Ooh, I love this song, but I've never heard it before, so I'm not sure what its about, but I love it anyway!" She screamed.

I climbed in the car shut the CD player off.

"Oh, come on I was just starting to like that song." She said depressingly

"Pinkie I would really appreciate it that you wouldn't mess around with my car." I said nicely.

"Oh I'm sorry." She said sadly.

"That's okay I just didn't want you to break anything in there, Okay." I said.

"Okay! (Squee)" She smiled and jumped out.

"Come on girl's" Said Twilight, "Let's go I'm pretty sure John's got a lot of work to do with his... car."

I said good bye to the other girls and they left but only Applejack and Applebloom stayed, cause it was their barn of course.

"This must be a special machine ya got here John." Said Applejack.

"Yeah, I saved this car from going to the crusher." I said.

"The crusher!?, What in tarnation is that?" She asked.

"It's a big machine that crushes old cars like this one down to a size where you don't recognize it anymore, and it gets piled up in a junkyard under a whole bunch of scrap." I said.

"My Celestia, ya must have been one brave hero to save this big feller'. " Said Applejack.

"Yeah." I sighed.

I went back to work on tightening the seals on the carburetor and giving every thing on the car one more check over, I wondered if I could get some orange paint and I could finish building the car here in Equestria, I mean if Rarity is gonna reupholster the interior for me why not get the others involved in helping me, it would be like a friendship project, I just got to figure out what they can do to help cause I'm pretty sure none of them know anything about automotive engineering.

That afternoon I got hungry and I found Applejack in her kitchen cleaning, "Excuse me Applejack, do you have anything to eat here I'm kinda hungry." I asked.

"Well sure I do," she said, "Ah got some fresh apple pie I made today."

"That sounds good, I would love a piece." I said.

She cut me a piece and handed it to me on a plate I could tell they didn't have silverware here so I pick the piece up with my hands and took a bite.

An explosion of flavor burst through my mouth it was probably the best apple pie I have ever eatin'.

"OH... MY... GOSH!" I said, "This is the best pie I've ever had in my entire life."

"Why thank ya John, I'm glad you like it." Said Applejack blushing.

I stared back at her and gave a blushing smile as well.

Goin' for a Ride

After I ate my piece of Applejack's Pie I went back out side and explored the farm, I grew up on a farm with my folks and I was practically doing almost all the work feeding the chickens, bailing hay and doing odd jobs for them, I walked up a hill and saw the apple orchard, it stretched out far as the eye could see.

I looked over the orchard in awe, "Wow!" I exclaimed, it was the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen in my life, I heard hoof steps from behind and turn to see Applejack walking up next to me.

"Beautiful ain't it." She said looking over it as well.

"It's amazing." I sighed, "It's like an ocean of apple trees, it makes me want to get in my car and just go for a long drive through the orchard."

"It does?" she asked.

"Yeah." I replied.

"Let me ask you something, what is it with you and that... that... contraption?" She asked.

I turned and looked at Applejack and sighed, "Well, Back in my world we have what you ponies here would call a series of adventures in books, but back home we call it a television show."

"Uh... A television show?" She said confused.

"Yup," I said, "It's kinda like... you know... comic books with moving pictures and different episodes and adventures with the same characters." I explained.

"So... What does this have to do with your... car?" Applejack asked.

"Well," I started, "There is a show that I love back in my world called the Dukes Of Hazzard, and that show is about two good ol' boys that drive around in a car that looks just like the one sittin' in the barn down there, and in every episode they do what right in their town called Hazzard County," I continued.

I spent about at lest an hour of talking to her about the plot of the show, who Bo and Luke Duke were, and what the General Lee was and all the cool stunts it did, Applejack smiled in awe as I talked to her, she was interested in every little detail about the show.

All she said was "WOW!" I could tell she was already in love with the show, "So all you have to do is paint the car orange and put a zero and a one on there and your done right?" She asked.

"Close but not quite there's more stuff I've got to put on it." I said, "Come here I want to show you some pictures of what the car looks like from TV." We walked back down the hill and headed towards the barn.

"That Boss Hogg sure sounds like a real meany." Applejack said sternly.

"Like I said, He'll do anything to make sure he wins." I said.

"And that Sheriff sound like a real nasty varmin' too." She added.

"Oh, Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane kew kew kew!" I imitated. "He's not really that bad, he's dumber then he looks."

We went into the barn and I went into the glove box and pulled out some pictures I've taken of General Lee's from car shows, "Here's what I want it to look like when it's done." I said.

"Wow, that's one mighty fine looking machine, what's that paintin' on top on the car?" She asked.

She was pointing out the confederate flag, I'm pretty sure she wouldn't understand what the flag stands for, but it's really something you don't want to talk about to a pony who want to hear about war and slavery, "Oh that, that's just a decorative flag they put up there, and plus it looks awesome on the car." I said.

I looked at Applejack and smiled at here and an idea flooded into my mind, "Wanna go for a ride?" I asked, Applejack's eye's grew wide.

"Ya' mean starting up your machine and ridin' it around like 'em Duke fellers from your show!?" She asked, I nodded, "Um... Sure 'ah guess."

"first let me show you how I start it." I said, I turned the key, with a crank and a growl the engine roared to life. "Yeah, that's music to my ears." I sighed.

Applejack was amazed at how loud the Charger was, "Whoo howdy!" she gasp, "This thing sure is loud."

I drove the charger slowly out of the barn and headed for a dirt road that lead through the orchard, I drove at a steady speed of 40 mph through the orchard and let the wind blow through the Charger and through my hair and Applejack's mane.

We came to an intersection in the road that lead to three places, one was to Ponyville, one was to Fluttershy's and the last was a long hilly road, perfect to hill hop with the General, give the suspension a good work out, so I started to turn in that direction.

"Wait!" Yelped Applejack, "What are you doing?"

"Um... I'm turning down here?" I said confused, "Why what's wrong?"

"That road leads to the Everfree Forest!" She shuddered.

I knew a little about what was in the Everfree Forest such as timber wolves, three headed tiger goat snake animals and other monsters I've seen from the show.

"Oh Applejack," I protested, "I bet all the monsters in the forest will run for miles when they hear and see this thing speeding down the road."

Applejack sighed in worry, "I hope your right John."

I drove the General down a hill really fast, it was like a roller coaster taking off from the top of the summit, Applejack gave a loud "Whoa" and we rode up the hill and the General jumped what must have felt like five feet into the air, Applejack gave a loud "Yee Haw" when we jumped I could tell Applejack was lovin' this, we drove for about two miles on the hilly road hopping the Charger over hills until we came to a fallen tree in the road.

I stopped on front of it and figured turn around, "Well," I sighed. "I guess we turn around."

I backed the car up and turned around and then as soon we were turned around we both gasped, six large timber wolves were standing in front of the car growling with their wooden fangs and staring at us with their glowing green eyes.

"OH MY CELESTIA JOHN WE'RE TRAPPED!" Applejack said in short heavy breaths.

I was scared too but I wasn't gonna let them hurt me or Applejack or the General, I gave the car a loud rev that made them back up a little then I gave another louder rev that caused one of them to jump, I looked over at Applejack, "Put that seat belt on." I said sternly and she did, I gave the car one last rev and put the front brakes on and stomp the gas pedal to the floor to gave the General one heak of a burnout, dirt and tire smoke filled the air with the burnout I was doing to scare the timber wolves away, they backed up enough that I took the brake off and the car hurdled forward the wolves jumped out of the way but one didn't it got on the hood while the car was still moving and looked at me dead square in the face.

Applejack screamed and covered her eyes, "GET IT OFF GET IT OFF!" She cried, the only idea that came to my mind was I slammed on the brakes and the car came to a dead stop and the wolf was sent hurling toward a tree and was smashed into a bunch firewood.

I looked at Applejack and cupped her face, "Are you okay?" I asked.

"Uh... John?" She stuttered looking out the front of the car, the timber wolf was putting itself back together.

"AW CRUD!" I gasped then heard growling from behind and saw the rest of the timber wolf running towards us, "DOUBLE CRUD!" I put the pedal to the floor and we raced off with those things in pursuit.

The timber wolves were fast and they were gaining on us, "How fast are things?" I asked.

"You don't wanna know!" She said looking in the side view mirror.

"Don't you worry they can't touch the General, COME ON BOY!" I said patting the dash and puttin' the pedal to the floor.

"VRRROOOOOMMM"

We came to a split in the road that had one that would lead out of the forest but another wolf was in the way so I turn down the open road.

"Uh John!?" Applejack said.

"Yeah?"

"This way is no good!" She cried.

"Why?" I asked.

"CAUSE THE BRIDGE IS OUT!"

I looked ahead and saw the wreaked bridge that had a ramp in front, and the only thing that came into my mind was... we got to jump it, it was do or die.

"HANG OOOONN!" I yelled, I was doing about 90mph and I gripped the steering wheel hard, we both started to scream and the General hit the ramp and we went flying into the air and over the river.

We were about 35 feet in the air a million things were going through my head, "Are we gonna crash? Are we gonna make it? whats going to happen?" But reality brought me back when I notice we were making it across and we were starting to land perfectly and a wave of joy went through me.

"YEEEEEEE HAAWWWW!"

I screamed in joy as the General landed on all four tires and the car kept on going, I looked in the rear view mirror and saw the timber wolves on the other side of the river growling and howling in anger that we got away, we were out of the Everfree Forest and away from those timber wolves that's one place I won't be going back to anytime soon, I slowed the car down and brought the General to a stop, my heart was still pounding cause I just jump my 69 Dodge Charger over a river and landed perfectly unharmed.

I looked at Applejack who was in a catatonic state of shock but she quickly snapped out of it, Applejack looked me, "Are you alright?" She asked.

I turned to her with my wide eyes, "That... Was..."

"AWESOME!" Screamed a voice from above, it was Rainbow Dash flying towards us and stopped just outside the driver side window, "That was so amazing, I was flying above when I heard this loud growl that I never heard before and I flew to see what it was and I saw you two in trouble and was just about to help when I saw this thing making all that cool smoke and noises and you hit that timber wolf and slammed him into the tree, awesome, and the way you making this thing move through the forest, AMAZING, And then I was scared when you were approaching that bridge and I was just about to fly down and help you when your car went VROOM over the river and you yelled YEE HAW and then you went BOOM when you guy's landed, that was the most awesome thing I've ever seen in my life!" She said really fast like Pinkie Pie.

I stepped out of the car and looked at the General to make sure everything was okay and notice something weird, "Not a scratch on it!?" I said, the General was not dented or scratched or anything it looked the same after Twilight used her magic on it, she must have done something else to the General?

"Could we go back to the farm." Applejack asked, "Cause I could use something to drink after all the screamin' and yellin' I did."

"Yeah sure." I said.

"Ooh, can I go for a ride too!?" Said Rainbow Dash, "I wanna see this thing in action again."

"Um, Okay." I said, I put the seat back and help her in through the window, after she was in I was just about to open the door when I decided to climb through the window like a real Duke boy.

Applejack gave me a funny look, "Why did you do that?" She asked.

"That's how they get into the General Lee in the show." I replied, I started the car back up and peeled out back on the dirt road back to the farm.

Welcome back folks, hope you enjoyed the last chapter where John and Applejack had a run in with the timber wolves and made a daring escape, and a successful jump, and now chapter 7.

Family time with the Apples

The sun was just starting to down while we were on our way back to the farm, Rainbow Dash was in awe as I drove the general back, she wanted me to drive really fast for her but I didn't, cause I had to conserve what fuel I had for the Charger.

"What's in the box?" Rainbow Dash asked, I turned my head to see her looking at two boxes with my Vector wheels in them.

"Those are my wheels for the car." I said.

"Why are they in here?" she asked, "Aren't they suppose to be on the car?"

"No, those are the one that I'll be putting on for when I start rebuilding the car into the General Lee." I said.

"Rebuilding it?" She asked, "Why do you have to rebuild it, it looks good the way it does."

I laughed, "Oh its gonna look way cooler then it does now when I start building this thing into the finest machine on four wheels you'll ever see." I stated.

"What will it look like?" She asked.

Applejack grabbed the photos from the glove box and handed them to Dash.

"WHOA!" She gasped, "That. is gonna. look. AWESOME!" She screamed.

We made it back to the farm I parked the car in the barn and opened the trunk, Applejack and Rainbow Dash helped me unload the parts from the car and set them on the workbench cause I was going to try and start working on it tomorrow, I said goodnight to Rainbow Dash and gave her a hug and she took off flying to her home, I followed Applejack into her house.

"Applejack!? Is that you!?" Called a voice from inside.

"Yeah Granny Smith it's me!" Applejack replied.

I almost forgot Granny Smith lived here with them, I don't think Applejack mentioned me to her all day today, and she's probably gonna act really spooked when she sees a human in her presents, I stepped back outside as to not be seen.

"What's wrong?" Applejack asked.

"Um... I don't think your Grandma will understand who or what I am." I said nervously.

"You ain't got nuttin to worry 'bout sugarcube, Granny Smith is one of Ponyville's honest pony there is." She said.

We walked into the house and I saw Granny Smith in the kitchen fixin' dinner for her family, "So you must be the feller' Applebloom keeps jibber jabbering on about!"

"Granny Smith this is John." Applejack introduced.

She said approaching me she extended her hoof to me, "It's nice to meet ya' sonny."

I stuck out my hand and shook it, "Likewise mam." I said returning the complement.

We all sat down at the table for dinner and had salad and baked potatoes and pie for dessert, then after dinner we all sat in the living room and I told them about my life and my car and most of all... the Dukes of Hazzard, they loved it, I reenacted scenes and quotes from my favorite episodes.

Luna's moon was high in the sky later that night and it was getting close to bedtime for everypony.

"Where are you gonna sleep tonight, John?" Applebloom asked.

That really didn't come to my mind of where I was going to sleep tonight, "I guess I can sleep in my car tonight?" I said.

"Oh you don't have to do that John." Said Applejack, "You can sleep on the couch tonight." She offered.

Applejack brought me a blanket and a pillow and I got comfortable and felt something hopped on my legs, It was Winona, Applejack's dog, she cuddled up on my lap and snuggled with me, I petted her head and relaxed myself and fell asleep on the couch.

That night I dreamed that the General Lee was finished and I was driving it through the orchard, I was doing donuts and burnouts in the General and all the girls were cheering me on I was having the best dream ever until something jumped out from behind a tree... It was a big timber wolf, I slammed on my brakes and tried to back up but I was surrounded by more timber wolves, I was so scared until a blue aurora appeared and out of the aurora was Princess Luna... she was so beautiful in person even though this was a dream.

"Thou shall vanish and never return to this human's dream!" She said in her royal echo, and she stomped her hoof and with a beam of light from her horn they all vanished into thin air, Luna turned to me and approached me, "Don't be afraid John, I mean you no harm."

"She knows my name?" I said, I climbed out of the window of the General and stood in front of her, "You must be Princess Luna."

"Thus has thou heard of me, yes?" She said.

I nodded, "Of course you're the Princess of the night able to see ponies dreams and protect them from bad dreams." I said.

"Twilight has told us much about you." She said.

"Us?" I said confused.

"Me and my sister Princess Celestia." She reassured me.

"Well, thank you for saving me from that thing." I said thanking her.

"Actually I had to create this illusion as a way of getting inside your dream, Please don't be mad at me for putting you in danger like that." She said.

"I'm not mad at all, but why?" I asked.

"Twilight wrote to us the moment she got back to her castle to inform us of your presents here in Equestria, and thought it would be a easier way to examine you so I could make sure you're not a threat to Equestria."

"I can assure you I am not a threat to Equestria." I said with a calm smile, "What gave you the idea of the Timber wolves?" I asked.

"Rainbow Dash went and told Twilight about yesterday and you little chase and sent us another letter." She said.

I laughed, "Kinda figured she would do that after that happened."

"Well, that is a nice carriage you have." She said, I was clueless as to what she said until I saw her looking at the General lee.

"It is nice, but that's no carriage." I said, I led her over towards the General, "This here is a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T aka The General Lee."

"It certainly is beautiful they way you describe it." She complemented.

"Thanks." I said, I looked at the car and back to Luna and got an idea, "Wanna go for a ride?" I asked.

Luna smiled with a blush and nodded, "I'm one for having fun." She said, she walked to the side of the General and with her magic she tried to open the door but it wouldn't open.

"Door's must be welded shut in my dreams." I said mentally.

"How does thou get in?" She asked.

I smiled, "Like this!" I jumped up threw my legs in first and slid down into the driver seat, "Climb through the windows."

"Um, I think I'll try an easier technique." She said as she disappeared and reappeared in the front seat.

"You ready?" I asked Luna, she nodded, "Hang on." I said bringing the General to life and doing a burnout, we rode through the orchard and I did some hill hopping and donuts... Princess Luna was having fun, she told me I could do anything I want in my dreams so I concentrated real hard and before I knew it we were in the Hazzard County town square, I made Roscoe and Enos appear and made them chase us and got the General Lee up on two wheels doing a lap around the square, Luna got scared a bit but she let out a whoop of excitement.

"It's now time for you to wake up John." Luna said, I stopped the car and let her do her magic, the visions were fading and I could hear my name being called.

John.

"John its time ta wake up now." said a voice, I was dazed in my sleep not knowing what was happening.

"No mom... I don't wanna go to school... it was cancelled... it's a holiday... I'm sick... just a few more hours." I mumbled, then I heard laughing, I woke up to the sight of Applejack rolling around on the floor laughing.

"That's exactly how Applebloom is in the morning!" She laughed, I let out a sigh and smiled, Applejack stopped laughing and stood up, "Come on sugarcube breakfast is ready." She said, I stood up and stretched and put my t-shirt on and walked into the kitchen to eat and ready to start a new day in Equestria.

Welcome to Ponyville

We all sat down at the table and had pancakes and hash browns best breakfast I've ever had, I still had a lot of things on my mind I was thinking about will I ever get home and what about my little sister she'd be lost with out me, I mostly took care of her and helped her out with her school work... I sure did miss her, would I ever see her again?, after words I helped with the dishes and cleaned up Applejack was grateful for the help.

"Thank ya John." She said.

"It's no problem, I'm a guest in this home and I'm glad to help." I said.

"Ya alright sugarcube?" She asked.

"Just thinking about my little sister." I sighed.

"Ya miss her, don't ya?" She asked, I nodded, "Don't worry you'll see her again as soon as we figure out a way to get you home."

I felt a sigh of relief when she said that cause she was always honest, "So... whats going on for today?" I asked.

"Well don't you remember Rarity asked ya if you would help her pick up a load for her at the train station." She said.

I almost forgot about that, "Oh yeah! We better get to that."

We went to the barn and just as I was about to get into the Charger a small voice called out... it was Applebloom,

"Hey sis can I come too?" She asked.

"I don't know Applebloom, if John doesn't try any of those fancy move and jumps with his car I'd be okay with it." She said looking at me.

I looked at Applebloom she had a puppy dog face that struck my heart, that look reminded me of my little sister Nicole, she would always do that when she wanted to ride in my car, I smiled "Hop in."

"YAY!" she screamed, I opened the door and flipped the seat forward and she got into the backseat.

I got in and turned the key and the engine roared to life, we drove out of the orchard and down the road towards town.

"Wanna listen to some country music from my world?" I asked.

"Sure." They both said.

I pulled out a CD that said "The Best of Kenny Rogers", I put in the player and selected my favorite track.

Applejack and Applebloom both swayed their heads to the music, "Who is this?" Applejack asked.

"This is Kenny Rogers, one of my favorite country singers." I said.

"He has a beautiful voice." Said Applebloom.

As the song went on both the girls enjoyed the music of Kenny Rogers, we drove nice and slowly towards town enjoying every second of this moment, I started to sing a few notes and Applejack stepped in and sang the chorus notes, the song ended and the girls sighed.

"That was the most beautiful song I've ever heard." Said Applejack.

"Me too!" Added Applebloom.

We crest a hill top and saw Ponyville ahead, I was nervous as to bringing a machine like this to a town who would not know what to think of my car.

"Why'd ya stop John?" Applejack asked.

"I don't know Applejack, What if they think my car is a monster, or what if I'm rejected here?" I said nervously looking down, then I felt a Applejack's hoof on my hand I looked at her and she was smiling.

"You have nothin' to worry about folks in Ponyville are really understanding, trust me they'll like you and The General Lee both." She said with a reassuring smile.

Then in a flash of purple Twilight appeared, "Hey John, I'm glad your here!" She said.

"You are?" I asked.

Yes! Princess Celestia and Princess Luna are in town waiting for you!" She said.

"They are!?" I said.

"Of course, we've set up a ceremony for your bravery from yesterday, saving Applejack's life and yourself from the timber wolves." She said.

"REALLY!" I gasped.

"Yes and I've here to help escort you and welcome you to Ponyville." She said.

"What about Rarity's shipment at the train station?" I asked.

"Oh don't worry Spike's got that taken care of."

Meanwhile at the Ponyville train depot...

"Come along now Spike dear." Said Rarity.

"(Grunt) G'ah... Ugh... C-coming Rarity!" Said Spike struggling trying to carry a mountain of boxes.

"Don't dottal now Spike, we have to make it back in time for the ceremony, and I've also got to find the perfect dress to wear since the Princesses are here." She said.

Twilight got into the front seat while Applejack got in back.

"Quick question Twilight." I asked.

"Yes."

"Yesterday after I jumped that river, the car didn't even have a scratch on it... like it was indestructible." I said.

"It is." She said.

"What?"

"Don't think your the only one in this world who watches TV." She said.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Well... Where you're from, I stayed with the human Applejack for a while and human Big Mac is a Dukes of Hazzard fan as well." She said.

This blew my mind I was surprised that Big Mac's human counterpart is a Duke fan as well, "Really!" I said surprised.

"Yep, one day I was curious when the first time I saw a TV and Big Mac turned it on to me and it was on this channel called CMT and the show was on and I watched several episodes of it that day, So when I saw the car and those decals and stuff I kinda figured that you would be building this into the General Lee, so while I was using that reverse spell I put a strength spell on the car to make it ten times stronger than it was."

My mind was totally blown away from this, the only thing I did was grabbed her into a big hug.

"Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" I said repeatedly.

"You're welcome, John!" She said trying to make me let go.

I started the car and drove down the hill, as we came down the hill I saw the town square filled with ponies and a big stage for me.

"JOHN LOOK OUT FOR THAT WAGON!!!" Twilight screamed.

I turned my head and saw a wagon full of hay that broke a wheel... I couldn't react in time..., Suddenly the driver side of the car was up in the air and the whole world was on an angle... WE WERE ON TWO WHEELS!

"WHOA!" I screamed. trying to hold the General steady as we two wheeled into town making quite an entrance. a bunch of ponies moved out of the way trying not to get in the way.

"Set this thing down!" Applejack screamed, I tuned the wheel to the right and with a thud the car was back on all four tires, I stop just in front of the stage.

I suddenly heard the sound of cheering and applause, I stepped out of the car and saw the entire town of Ponyville cheering at me from my stunt, I turned my head and saw Princess Celestia with a smile on her face, and I looked at Princess Luna who waved at me, the applause died down and Princess Celestia spoke.

"My fellow Ponies, It is a honorary day for this young human, for being the first human in Esquestria and also having the very first machine like this here as well," She said, "That was quite a entrance that you've made, now I know what my sister was talking about."

I smiled, "Thank you." I said.

"For your bravery from yesterday of saving Applejack's life we would like to offer this golden metal of bravery to you." And with her magic the metal levitated over my head around my neck.

"Would you like to give a speech?" Celestia asked.

I never gave a speech before so I walked up onto the stage and spoke, "Thank you all for being so nice to me and accepting my presents here in Equestria, and also I would like to say... What the heak?" And every pony looked at me weird, then a strange figure was approaching down the road... it was a brown 1969 Porsche 911, how is this possible? I wondered, everpony darted out of the way and the car crashed into a bush.

"OH NO!" Was the only thing I said.

One of the Princess's guards approached it, "What are you crazy!? who do you think you are!"

"DUN DUN DAHAHAHUN!" Out of the car came Discord wearing an orange cape and a mask that said "CHAOS" on it, "I AM CAPTAIN CHAOS!"

"And this is my faithful companion Kato!" And he held Fluttershy's bunny Angel who didn't look to happy wearing a mask. "Say hello Kato!" The guard just looked at Discord sternly, "Been a guard long?" He asked.

All I could do was laugh. "AHAHAHAHA! THAT IS FUNNY! THAT IS FUNNY!" I said.

"Discord! what are you doing here?" Yelled Twilight.

"Well when I heard that there was a human in Equestria, I figured I might as well show up in style." He said, changing into Boss Hogg's white suit.

"Let me guess you watch TV too?" Said Twilight.

"Of course my dear, I can't be the master of chaos if I don't watch it." He said, "So this is the famous John, I've heard so much about, and this must be your car as well too, huh."

"Yep that probably the fastest machine in Equestria now." I said.

"Well then, you'll have to be careful of that or else justice will protect and serve." He said changing into Sheriff Buford T Justice, and I laughed again.

"Tell me you can conjure up any car?" I asked.

"You mean like this?" and with a snap of his fingers a Black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am with gold trim appeared, it was the Bandit Trans Am.

"Ooh, Nice choice of car Discord." I said.

"Whoa!" Gasped Rainbow Dash. "That, Is, Awesome!" And she jumped into the front seat.

"You can keep that Dash." Discord said, "I got about a million of others I can get, Well I go to be going now cause I've got a three headed Venus fly trap I have to feed, if I leave him home alone too long he tends to eat the couch." and with a snap of his fingers he disappeared.

That was nice of Discord for giving a car to Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash was hopping around in her own car, I popped the hood to see what it had underneath, there was a 6.6 liter (400 cubic inch) 4 BBL V8 with a Turbo Hydra-matic engine in it, "Wow this is amazing, John! will you show me how to drive this." She asked.

"Sure..."

"Wait!" Said Pinkie "Before you do that we got to have a PARTY!" she screamed and she blew off her party cannon, I guess drivers ed comes later cause I never turn down a party, and the rest of the day all we did was party.

Afterwords me and Rainbow Dash drove around in the Trans Am giving it a good run through the countryside, it was a little hard for Dash to drive at first but she got the hang of it, I taught her how to do a burnout and how to powerslide around corners... she was a natural at it.

As night came around I was back at the farm laying on the hood of my car staring at the stars, "Maybe I can stay here for a while, but I'll have to at least try and find a way home somehow." I sighed.

I went back inside Applejack's home and laid on the couch with Winona and went to sleep.

Author's Note

Well it looks like there's a new toy for Dash to play with, I chose that Kenny Rogers song cause of the movie 'Six Pack' with him and the song in it, and the Captain Chaos thing came to me from watching Cannonball Run last week. you all stay tune for my next chapter ya hear!

Building a Legend

Celestia's sun was just starting to rise when I woke up, I got up and got dressed and went up stairs to find everypony was still asleep in their beds, I went back down stairs and walked out to see the rising sun... It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, Celestia herself rose her sun high in the sky.

I went into the barn and looked at the charger, "Well buddy," I said putting my hand on the hood, "Today's the day we build you into a legend."

About thirty minutes later I heard the sound of a rooster crow outside which was the alarm clock for the Apple family, I just finished putting the Vector wheels into the Goodrich tires and started to raise the car of the ground, I grabbed the floor jack in the trunk but It was going to work on dirt so I found a 2x4 in the corner of the barn and started to raise the car, I got the front of the car high enough to tried to look for a stand to set the front of the car on, cause you should never go under a car with the floor jack holding it up or else the car will fall and seriously injure you or worse.

As I looked for a jack stand I heard Applejack from inside, "Hey John! Ya out there?" She called.

"Yeah, I out here looking for something to set my car on cause I'm changing the tires." I replied.

"Oh I've got these stumps right here for when I change the wheels on the apple cart." She said as she went and found them.

"Perfect!" I said with joy.

"Wanna help me today building the car?" I asked.

"I'm sorry sugarcube I'd love to help Ya'll but me and Big Mac got to get some of these apples picked before the end of the week or else we won't make any money." She said.

I felt sorry for her when she told me she was behind on her farm work and I knew what it was like cause when my grandparents needed help on their farm I would help out in any way I could, "Do you want a hand or anything?" I asked.

"Nah, that's okay I'm pretty sure your legs wouldn't be able to buck a tree." She said.

"You gotta point," I replied, "Just remember if you need me I'll be In here working alright?" I said.

"Sure thing." She said and her and her brother walked off into the orchard.

I took the jack and lifted the car off the ground and stuck the stumps under the car and lowered the car down gently, the car stayed on the stumps pretty sturdy and I took the wheels off, I set the old tires and wheels aside cause they would come in handy later.

I took the electrical air pump and pumped the tires up, then I fitted the wheels onto the car.

I was adjusting the suspension under the rear axle when I heard, "Yo, John, where are you!?" It was Dash.

"Right here!" I said sliding my head out from underneath, "What's up?"

"Nothing just came by to see what happenin" She said.

"Building the car today." I said standing up.

"Cool can I help!?" She asked.

"Of course, but I got to go buy some orange, black, red, white and blue paint first, wanna go?" I asked.

"YEAH!" She said doing a flying back flip.

"Well, help me lower this thing down and lets go." I said.

"We lowered the car down and drove out of the barn to Ponyville, we drove across a bridge and saw the paint store where the owner was painting a sign, I hoped they had paint that would be able to stick to the General.

We stopped just in front of the store, the owner had a smile on his face and greeted me with a welcome, "Welcome to Easel's Paint Shack, how may I help you?"

"Yes, do you have some paint that would stick to metal." I asked

"We sure do, what colors?" He asked.

I gave him the list and he went and got 1 large can of primer gray paint, 1 can of black and 3 small cans of red, white, and blue, I grabbed some spray nozzles and a petal pump for the sprayer and some painters tape.

The orange paint was a problem cause I wanted the matching paint from the original General Lees, 1975 Corvette Flame Red Code 70, a color that was only available for GM models in 1975.

I ran out to the car and got out a metal paint swatch with the color on it, I walked back in and handed the swatch to him.

"Um... Can you dye a color to match this?" I asked Easel, he looked at the swatch and smiled.

"I think I can match that for you, it will take an hour or two but I'll get that color for you sir." He smiled.

Rainbow Dash was helpful enough to pay for the paint cause my currency of money was useless here, I'll have to repay Dash with something later for that.

We put the paint and stuff in the trunk and decided to stop over at Rarity's for the upholstery, We went inside the boutique and was greeted by her.

"John! Rainbow Dash! Welcome!" she smiled.

"Good morning Rarity," I smiled, "I was passing by seeing if you had that upholstery yet?"

"Sorry darling, but leather is kinda hard to come by here in Equestria, but I do have some tan vinyl that I could use." She said.

I took the roll of material and looked at it, it was better then anything. “This could work.” I said, “Do ya think you redo the entire seats?” I asked.

Rarity smiled, "Of course darling, just tell me what you want done and I'll do it." She said.

"Just the two front seats and the back seat, and see if you can put some new foam patting in them too.” I asked.

"Okay, it shall be done by 3:00 prompt." Rarity smiled.

It was 12 o'clock and me and Dash decided to go for a walk around town, I was getting hungry I didn't eat breakfast yet, "Hey Dash, I'm starving."

"Well how about we go to Sugarcube Corner." She said.

I thought I was a good idea, "Okay." I said as we made our way to the bakery.

I stepped into the bakery and the aroma of fresh baked sweets filled the air, it reminded me of the local bakery in my hometown that I would take my little sister Nicole to when she would get done with school and I would pick her up in the Charger and take her there.

"Wow, that smell is the best scent in the world." I sighed.

We sat down and Pinkie bounced out of the kitchen and hopped towards us, "Hey Rainbow, Hey John!" She smiled, "What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Came here to eat Pinkie." Dash said.

"Okay what would you like, I would recommend the Banana Ramma Nana Muffins cause they're so bananay or how bout the Wakey Cakey's with chocolate frosting, whipped cream and sprinkles..."

Pinkie was talking way too fast for me to understand, "Hold it!" I said putting my hand up, "How bout' just a plain blueberry muffin, okay?" I asked.

"Okie doki loki!" She said and she disappeared into the kitchen.

"So what do you need to do to finish you car?" Dash asked.

"I need to paint it, put a roll cage in it, install the CB, build a push bar on the front and put the Dixie horn in."

"What's Dixie?" Dash asked, I whistled the first 12 notes of Dixie to her, "Oh cool." She said.

My muffin came and I started to eat it, as I ate it I was thinking about where to get metal pipes for the roll cage and the push bar, maybe there some pipes I could find the hardware store.

"So how's the Trans Am?" I asked.

"AWESOME!" She shouted.

"How come you didn't drive it to the farm?" I asked, "Where is it now?"

"Well, the thing stopped running and the car came to a halt, I don't know why?" She said.

"How long were you driving it?" I asked

"Um... Quite a while." She smiled half way.

"You probably ran out of gas." I said, "Did the car sputter when it stopped?"

"Yeah."

"Then it's out of gas." I said, Looks like I'll have to find out how to make fuel here too, maybe Twilight could help with that, she's a science pony and she can, make gas from corn or switch grass and make ethanol,... or moonshine I giggled.

"What's so funny?" Dash asked.

"Oh, nothing." I said.

Another thought came to mind, Twilight said that Pinkie could paint really, really good, I wondered if she could paint the rebel flag on the General.

"Hey Pink-" I was about to call when she was suddenly next to me.

"You rang?" She smiled.

"Yeah, I was wondering if you could paint?" I asked.

"Ooh, what do you want me to paint you, a rainbow, a picture of Twilight's castle, or a picture of Twilight's castle with a rainbow arching over it?" She said hyper

"Um, no, but thank you, I was wondering if you could help me paint this flag on top of the car for me?" I asked.

"Oh that's easy." She smiled.

"Well after I find some pipes for the roll cage and some metal for the brush guard and when Rarity gets done with the interior of the Charger we can all go back to the farm and start painting it up." I said.

"Okay, I got nothing else to do today so I'll can get off early." she squeed.

"Cool." I said, I finished my muffin and stared out the window looking at how beautiful Ponyville was, I wish my little sister was here to see it, she would never want to leave, "Hold the phone, what is this!?" I said staring at a pony pulling a wagon of pipes.

"Hold the what?" Dash said confused.

I got up and ran out the door towards the cart, "Excuse me sir?" I yelled, he looked over at me.

"Yes, how may I help you?" He said.

"I was wondering where you got those pipe, cause I'm looking for some." I said looking in the cart.

"Well I was on my way to recycle it, but if you want to take it off my hooves help yourself." He smiled.

I grabbed some 2" pipes and a flat sheet of metal that was with it which was perfect to build a brush guard, I took a rope and tied it around both ends of the pipes so it would be easy to carry, and decided to head back to Rarity's to see the progress she has gotten done.

On the way there we decided to stop over at Twilight's, the castle was huge, much bigger in real life then it was on TV, I knocked of the door and a purple aurora opened the door, "John! Hello how you doing?" she asked with a smile.

"Doing great." I smiled.

"What's with all the pipes?" She asked.

"It's for the General."

"Oh!, won't you come in." She invited.

Once I walked in I stood in awe, this place was huge on the inside, "TRAIN LEAVING ON TRACK 4 ALL ABOARD!" My voice echoed.

Twilight and Dash giggled at the echo, "What was that!?" Spike said form the other end of the hallway, "Oh hey, John!" Spike smiled as he walked towards me.

"Hey Spike." I said.

"John, last night I wrote to my Canterlot high friend Sunset Shimmer about you, but she hasn't gotten back to me yet." When Twilight said that I got very nervous, I had to tell her the truth about me and Equestria.

"Um... Twilight."

"Yes John?"

"Can I talk to you in private." I said a bit sadly.

"Sure." She said a bit worried.

We went into her library where we both sat down on a couch, I was extremely scared of telling her this.

"Twilight, I need to tell you something I hope you would understand."

"Whats wrong?" She tilted her head.

"I'm not from Canterlot high."

"What do you mean?" She said.

I took Twilight's hoof and held it, "You must promise me you'll never tell anybody about this okay!?" She nodded in nervousness, "Twilight,... I'm from a world where this world is a hit television show called My Little Pony; Friendship Is Magic," Twilight just stared at me, it looked like I broke her brain.

"W-w-w-w-wh-a-a-what!?" She shuddered.

"It's true Twilight." I responded, I told her everything about the show, how I knew her friends and about the mirror portal and the fandom, her reactions were really lost she kept looking at the floor and it looked like she was about to have a heart attack, I comforted her and told her to relax.

"I don't understand, why would somepony write stuff about us!?" She shook. "Are our lives a lie?"

"No Twilight there not." I said reassuringly.

"Then why me and my friends? why not just Princess Celestia?"

"Twilight, you and your friends and your adventures and lives bring a lot of joy to people, they love you guys!" I said.

Twilight looked up and smiled. "Really!?"

"Yeah!" I smiled, "Millions of people love you girls, including my little sister she adores you, you be surprised at how many of your fans would kill to be in the position I am in, I'm probably the luckiest guy in the entire universe." Twilight smiled she felt more relaxed at the thought of her and her friends making people happy from their adventures.

"But how did you end up here?" She asked.

"That... I don't know Twilight, but I intend to find out how and why I'm here." I said, "But the more important thing right now Twilight, you must promise me Twilight, that you'll never, ever tell anypony this, especially Princess Celestia, or Pinkie Pie cause she'll make a huge deal of this in a heart beat."

"I promise John, cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." She promised, "It's good to know that they can learn from our lives."

"Yeah." I sighed, "How about you come with us and help me build a roll cage for the car."

Twilight smiled, "Okay." She nodded, "John, even though you don't know how you got here, I will do everything I can to get you back home."

I smiled at Twilight, "Thank you, please, I don't know what my family would do if they lost me." We exited the library and left her castle to go pick up the car cause it was close to three.

We approached Rarity's boutique and I saw the new upholstery in the car, It was amazing, she sewed the seats up and polished the dash panel, "Well darling is that how you wanted it?" She asked.

I hoped in the car and sat in the front seat and felt the new comfortable vinyl seats, "mmmmm!” I hummed in comfort, “It's perfect!" I said jumping out give her a hug.

“You’re welcome, John.” She replied.

“I don’t know how I’m gonna repay you, Rarity?” I said.

“Don’t worry about a thing, darling,” she replied, “You saved Applejack’s life, that’s about as much of a payment that I’ll take.”

That was so thoughtful of her to do that for me, but would still have to do something for her just for the work.

Me, Twilight, and Dash put the pipes in the trunk and got in the car and picked up Pinkie we headed over to the paint store and picked up the paint.

Easel was right out with the paint waiting for me, I checked the match of the paint with the swatch, it matched to the perfect shade, I put the paint in the trunk and we headed back to the farm to build this car into a legend.

We got to the farm and parked the car in the barn and got everything ready to go, I showed Twilight how I wanted the brush guard to be build, I took a marker and drew out the outline for her to cut out the piece with her magic,I took some old newspapers and the painters tape and covered the pieces I didn't want painted and the glass, then I poured the primer paint into the sprayer and sprayed a coat of primer on, while that was drying Twilight had finished the brush guard, she did an excellent job it was the way I wanted it, we welded the brush guard to the front of the car, we were getting good, next was the roll cage we took the pipes and made dimensions on it to cut it, we took each pipe in the car one at a time, with Twilight's magic she welded the pieces together.

"That's perfect, that will keep the roof from caving in on me, in case I roll over." I said, "Okay next is the doors."

"Doors?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah we're gonna weld them shut." I added.

"Why?"

"Well you weld the doors shut on a racing car for safety purposes." I said.

"How do you get in?" She asked.

"Climb through the windows." I smiled.

"Oookaayy" Twilight said unsure about that.

"John, do you think if I told someone about the... you know, will they think I'm crazy?" She asked concerned.

"Well that is if they believe it's true, but just try to think of it as a good thing, young boys and girls learn from your lives and your adventures." I said, "Just live your life as it is and remember how many people are learning from you."

"So it's like I'm a teacher?" She asked, I nodded, "That makes it even better." She said giving me a hug knowing that everything is alright.

We finished the doors and now it was time for the orange paint, I filled the sprayer with the paint and sprayed it on the car, after two coats of orange we were ready for the 01, the flag and the name, that's where Pinkie came in.

"Okay this is what the flag looks like, do you thing you could paint that on there?" I said.

"Easy peasy lemon squeezy!" She squeed.

"Okay," I said looking away and started to get the door ready for the 01, "Let me know if you need..."

"Done!"

"WHAT!?" I jumped up and saw the flag finished in just 20 seconds, I was shocked, "HOW THE... HOW DID... HOW DID YOU GET THAT DONE SO FAST!?"

"It was easy (Squee)"

I was amazed at how fast she could paint, I let her do the name on the roof the 01 and the checker and rebel flag on the back between the back window and the trunk lid.

I put the trim on and installed the final pieces, Twilight and Dash where outside and it was time to unveil the car, but not yet I wanted all the girls here to see this.

"Dash!" I called from the door.

"Is it ready!?" She said anxiously.

"Not yet, go get Applejack, Big Mac, Rarity, Fluttershy, Spike, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Applebloom so they could see this." I said.

"Got it!" She said and she zoomed off.

About 15 minutes later after I polished the car and got it looking shiny everypony was out front.

"Pinkie open the doors." I said revving up the engine, as Pinkie opened the doors the GENERAL LEE rolled out of the barn.

(DIXIE HORN)

Mouth were agape, smiles were huge and a loud, "THAT. IS. AWESOME!" came from Rainbow Dash.

"Wow look at the cool paint job." Scootaloo cheered.

"Looks like my work paid off, Darling." Rarity said.

"Wow it even looks better in real life then on TV." Twilight said.

"Boy, you sure did a nice job building this car into somethin' special." Applejack smiled as she walked around the car.

"Eeyup." Said Big Mac.

"Hey don't give me all the credit, you all helped too, and I thank you guy's from the bottom of my heart for helping me do this." I smiled.

They all smiled from the compliment, I knew that they were good friends.

"Who wants to go for a ride!?" I yelled.

"We do!" The Cutie Mark Crusaders said in unison.

"Me too!" Said Dash.

"Alright hop in." I said helping the girls through the windows and into the back seat, Dash flew inside the car without trouble, I revved up the engine and did a peel out.

"YEEEEEEHAAAWW!" We whooped as we did donuts in the dirt and took off down the dirt road doing hill hops, I was the happiest I've ever been in my whole life, the girls were having a blast, we jumped a creek and I hit the Dixie horn as we jumped.

"Man this feel so great to give the General Lee a good run." I said.

"This thing is fast." Scootaloo screamed.

"Yeah!" Dash cheered, “It can do amazing things!”

“It’s not just the car, it’s also who’s behind the wheel!” I said.

Suddenly I heard a siren, I looked in the rear view mirror and saw a 77 Dodge Monaco Police Car, It was a Hazzard County Police Car, and Discord was driving it.

"Alright you Duke boy, just pull over now cause I'm gonna give ya ticket for speedin' kew kew kew!" He said imitating Roscoe over the CB.

I picked up the CB, "Oh yeah, well you have to catch us first." I laughed.

"D'ooh HOT PURSUIT, I love it I love it, Gee kew kew." Discord laughed.

"Buckle up girls and hold on!" I said putting the pedal to the floor.

The General sprinted through the country side with the engine roaring, and a siren in pursuit, the General drifted through curves with ease, we turn of the road and rode through a field, I saw a small pond that had a jumping mound and I headed for it.

"John what are you doing?" Sweetie Belle screamed.

"Hang on!" I yelled, and the General soared into the air and over the pond.

"YEEHAW!" (DIXIE HORN)

The General landed with a thud, "THAT WAS AWESOME!" Dash screamed.

We looked back and saw Discord crashing into the pond.

"WHOA!" I screamed.

"Should we help him?" Applebloom asked.

"Nah, he looked alright." Said Dash who was looking back at Discord who was on top of the police car that was sunken cursing us, We all laughed and headed back to Sweet Apple Acres, it had been a fun and eventful day for us day for us I built my car, got into my first car chase and jumped a pond in the newly built General Lee, what better way to end the day.

Author's Note

This was my imagination of how the ponies saw the finished General Lee.

A Way Home

Author's Note

Welcome back folks, in Ponyville the sound of birds can be heard in the distances... but now the sound of a roaring powerful engine can be heard from a mile a way.

A Way Home

It has been about a week since me and the girls built my car into the General Lee and I was adjusting okay to Equestria, Twilight was gonna be helping me make fuel for the car, we were gonna make separate corn field for making the Bio-fuel, I still had gas in the General only a quarter of a tank, I just had to not use it as much, Discord was no help cause he was never around for me to ask him if he could make gasoline appear from his magic, fact the last time I saw him he was sailing on top of a police car in a pond.

I had found out that Applejack needed my help, because the harvest this year is important for her family, money has been tight in her household, she told me that her annual Apple Family Reunion was happening in a few weeks and she needed all the help she could.

I helped out on the farm as much as I could, with carrying baskets and pruning trees, and cutting them down, it was pretty much a job for me to work for them, I didn't want her to pay for my labor me cause she needed the extra money, I told her in return you could let me stay at the farm and I'll help out as much as I can, I was even building a trailer for to haul apples much easier with those old tires I had on the General, I was going to haul it behind the General for them.

Applejack even made a room in the loft of the barn, there was even a door that lead into the upstairs house hallway part so I could get to the bathroom, it was comfortable sleeping up there little cold at night but nothing that a nice warm blanket to keep me warm.

The thought of how to get home was still buzzing around in my head, Twilight said she was doing everything in her power to figure out how I got here.

It was a beautiful day I was on my way to the school to pick up Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle, it was a nice day to be driving the General and pick up the girls from school, I was giving the General a good workout, I was hopping hills and drifting through curves I pretty much had the back roads of Ponyville memorized, the spell that Twilight put on the General was really helping out, I was putting it to the test of jumping over hills and hitting dips in the road that launched me and the General into the air, I reached town and the ponies waved to me as I drove by, I could say the General Lee was now a part of Ponyville, I stopped in front of the school waiting for the bell to ring.

As I waited for the girls two ponies approached me, it was Lyra and Bon Bon, "Hello there John," Said Lyra, "Wow, I never thought I would get to met the first human in Equestria in person!" She jumped.

"You act as if I'm a famous celebrity." I chuckled.

"Of course, you're friends with Princess Twilight and you are also the one who saved Applejack's life and made quite an entrance at the welcoming ceremony." Said Bon Bon.

"Well, what about The General Lee here, he's more famous than me." I said patting the roof.

"How famous?" Bon Bon asked.

I spent about 10 minutes talking about the show to them.

"You and the girls really did a great job of building it." Lyra complemented.

"Thank you." Just then the school bell rang and all the colts and fillies came out, as soon as the girls saw me they came running.

"Hey John!" Said Applebloom, "You picking us up?"

"Yeah, hop in." I said helping them in through the windows, "Put your seat belts on." I said.

"Wow it's really him!" A squeaky voice said, I turned to see Diamond Tiara, I remember from the show she was kinda a snake in the grass to the girls, but if I remembered correctly she forgave herself for all she did bad.

"I heard he took on a hundred Timber wolves." Said Silverspoon.

"It was actually six, and it wasn't just me fighting them, it was my trusty friend The General Lee." I smiled.

"What else can this thing do?" Diamond asked.

I smiled, "You wanna see something cool?" I asked

"Yeah!" They said in unison.

I slid into the driver seat revved up the engine and did a burnout, a group of young ponies came to watch.

(DIXIE HORN)

"YEE HAW!" I screamed as I did a peel out down the road.

"YEAH! THAT WAS AWESOME!" Scootaloo cheered.

"So what do want to do today girls?" I asked.

"Lets ride this thing around the fields." Scootaloo suggested.

"Nah, I'm running low on fuel right now so we can't do much driving around till I have a fuel source for the General." I said.

"Then lets go to the farm and go to our clubhouse." Said Applebloom.

"Okay." I said, I drove the girls back to the farm.

Meanwhile behind a pile of bushes... Discord was waiting for the General Lee

We drove by a big pile of bushes and I saw a police light bar, "Oh dang, it's Discord!" I said as we drove by."

"Ooh, Ooh, there they are, kew kew kew, I'll get 'em this time HOT PURSUIT!" Giggled Discord pulling out of the bushes with a blaring sirens.

"Oh great, I really don't want to be chased cause I don't want to run my tank dry." I said.

"Alright, now you just pull over now, I'm gonna give ya a ticket for speedin' Yuk kew kew." Discord said over the CB.

I picked up the CB and spoke, "Come on Discord, I low on gas right now and I don't wanna chase." I said.

"Well then, how about I make you a deal, if I don't catch by the time you get to Sweet Apple Acres, I'll full your fuel tank." He offered.

"And if I lose?" I said nervously.

"Oh you have to be my personal servant for a week." He chuckled.

There wasn't no way I'm going to do that, lose and become his maid, "You girls better hold on to somethin', cause I'm gonna have to stand on it now." I said putting the pedal to the floor.

I had the petal to the metal as Discord chased us, He seemed to know how to drive pretty well, How he learned... I don't know, I also wasn't sure how much gas i was using but hopefully it's enough to get to the farm.

"Come on John, faster!" Said Applebloom.

"I got my foot to the floor, kiddo." I said checking my mirrors.

I gave the General all its got, we kicked up dust on the road and made it hard for Discord to see, the girls on the other hand were having the time of their lives.

"Stupid dust, I can't see a dog gone thing." He said turning on the windshield wipers.

We hopped hills and drifted through curves with ease, we even ran through a puddles spraying water back onto Discord causing the windshield to get muddy, Discord started to fall back and a wave of adrenaline jetted through my body, I gave a Burt Reynolds laugh as he we left Discord in the dust.

"YEA HOO!" I cheered.

"YEA HOO!" Cheered Scootaloo.

"WHOO HOO!" Cheered Sweetie Belle.

"YEE HAW!" Screamed Applebloom.

We power slide into the farm watching Discord bringing up the rear with the Patrol car covered in dust.

I climbed out of the window and approached Discords car, "Well, I made it here, so I won."

"Fine." Discord sighed and he gave me my fuel, a large red Jerry can appeared with gasoline in it, I opened it up and smelled it to make sure it was gas and not chocolate milk, it was gas alright, Discord and the Patrol car disappeared in a flash.

I put the gas into the car and it gave me a full tank, there was about a 1/4 left in the can so I put it in the car just in case I run out of fuel somewhere.

I dropped the girls off at their clubhouse and drove back to the barn and I backed the General into the barn to give it a tune up.

I popped the hood on the General reveling the engine, I took the tools off the workbench and took the air cleaner off and cleaned the carburetor, "Hey John, whatcha' doin'?" Asked Applejack who brought me a glass of lemonade.

I took the lemonade and took a sip, "Oh nothing, just givin' the General a tune up." I said putting the glass on the workbench.

"Hey thanks for picking up the girls for me." She thanked.

"Hey, no problem it's what I like to do is help out." I said, I was so nice to Applejack ever since I came to Equestria, I feel strange when ever I'm around her, I like her a lot as a friend but I fell it could be something more, people back home would think it's strange, a man and a pony in love, but she's just like a human being, she talks, she works and even cooks her own food... am I in love with her? I remember when we had the run in with the timber wolves, I threw one off of the General and I held her face and asked her if she was okay, I was worried about her at that moment, but she was tough, even when we ride in the General Lee together she enjoys it, we have a lot of fun together driving around on her off time.

Applejack looked at the engine, "John?, do you think you could tell me a few things about engines?" She asked.

I smiled, "Sure, this here's the carburetor..." I spent a good hour teaching Applejack the basics of engine work, I showed her how to check the oil, check the spark plugs and showed her how to disconnect and reconnect the battery, The original engine in here was a 383 Magnum, I still got it, it's sitting in my grandpa's barn it just needs some new parts for it, he helped my buy the 440 crate motor out of a catalog, and together we built it, we even souped it up to pump out more horsepower, I kept the old engine in case I blew the motor in the General or bought another Mopar, I'm hoping one day I'll save enough money to put a 426 HEMI in it... or if I wanted to give it some ground breaking power a 528 HEMI that pumps out 610 HP that'll really crack asphalt.

"Hello?..." A voice called, I turned around to see Twilight.

"Hey Twilight!" I smiled.

"Hey Twi." Said Applejack.

"Hey, Applejack can I speak to John for a moment?" She asked.

"Sure Twilight, what's wrong." I asked nervously.

"John can I show you something?" She said.

"Sure." Twilight and I walked down to the river where I first crashed, "This is the spot where I crashed and came her in this world." I said.

"John I found something in the river that you need to see." She said and she pulled out these six amethyst crystals.

"What are these?" I asked.

"I'm not sure," She said looking at them, "But, to my theory it my be how you got here."

I looked at Twilight with hope she was right, "Do you think?"

"I hope so." She said.

"How do they work?" I asked.

"I'm not sure."

I picked one up and looked at it and looked at the others, Twilight used her magic on them as she tried to activate them herself, but nothing, I took them and set them into a circle hoping something would happen.

"Hmm, nothing." I mumbled.

"I just don't understand, what are these?" She pondered.

"I don't know either Twi," I sighed standing up, "I just know that this sent me here some how," I stepped into the circle crystals were in, "We just got to get them t-WHAAA!" I screamed as I fell through the earth and the next thing I new... I was under water.

I swam to the surface and took a breath of air and realized I was in the river where I tried to jump the General... I was home.

I swam to the shore line and stepped out of the water, I turned around and looked out at the river and realized that Twilight must be worried about me, I jumped back into the water and went under a saw another purple flash and something floated right into me, it was Twilight.

I grabbed her and swam to the surface, one we surfaced I looked at her, she look really, really different, she still was animated but in a three dimensional look.

"Twilight! You okay!?" I exclaimed.

Twilight looked at me confused, "What happened, John? Why do you look so different?" She said shaking.

"That's cause we are in my world." I replied.

She checked her surroundings and then looked at her reflection in the water, "What happened to me?"

"I think that the laws of... animation or cross dimensional universe travel, your body has to have a certain form to use in a world?" I said trying to make sure I was right.

"I guess so?" She pondered, "We have to get back through that portal."

"Here you stay here while I see if the portal is open." I said as I jumped back into the water and swam a 6 feet down, I felt the ground surface and it felt solid, I resurfaced, "Nothing!" I yelled to Twilight.

"Maybe it's in a different spot, try a little farther out." She replied, I took another deep breath and went back under, as I searched for the portal I saw one of those amethyst crystals in between a rock, I picked it up and looked at it and wondered it there was more here, I resurfaced for another breath.

"Twilight! look!" I said holding up the crystal,

"It's one of those crystals, how is it here?" She said.

"I think there's another set of them at the bottom! I'll Look!" I called back, I took another deep breath and dove back under, I had found all six of the crystals under the water, I came out of the water and handed them to Twilight.

Twilight set the in the same circle as before, I step threw and the next thing I knew I flew into the air on the other side in Equestria.

"Oof!" I grunted with a thud landing on my back, suddenly a purple flash came and Twilight came out of the portal and landed right on top of me.

"Oof!" She grunted.

"G'ugh" I spat out from her landing right on my stomach.

"Oh, I'm sorry John!" She said hopping off me. "You okay?"

"Yeah," I said standing up, "Reminder, lets put the crystals vertically instead of horizontally."

"Good idea, cause it one heak of a throw when you come through." She said.

On the walk back I had a lot of excitement built up in me cause I found a way back to my world, but I also felt upset that I was going to be leaving, it wasn't like I wouldn't see all of them again, it was Applejack, I really wanted to tell her I like her.

"You okay, John?" Twilight asked, "You seem quiet."

"I'm fine it's just... I-I'm... just that now I found a way home and I would just hate to up and leave the farm in it's dire need of help." I said.

"It's okay, Applejack's got us and will help her out with the harvest." She said cheering me up.

I stopped and Twilight turned to me, "Okay, I need to tell you something Twilight." I said.

"What is it?" She questioned.

"Have you ever... ya know... liked someone that you were afraid you would never see them again and was never able to tell them how much you care about them?" I said in a bit sad tone.

"Yes," Twilight responded with her head down, "You've probably seen my adventure to human world?"

"Yes," I knew exactly what she was talking about, Flash Sentry.

"I meet a boy there and he was so nice to me that I feel in love with him, but we never did get to express our love for each other." She said sadly. "Why?... Do... do you feel this way about... Applejack?" I was too nervous and locked up inside to answer, the only thing I could do is nod. "Oh John." She said sympathetically, "I know it's hard telling somepony you like them."

"Yeah." I sighed, "But I've seen so much of Applejack's life on TV and learned so much more about her in person, It's just like my life, I basically had to fend for myself cause my parents both work long full time jobs, and seeing her with Applebloom made me realize that how I was there for my little sister too, we both share a similar taste in country music and have a bit of a thrill for riding around in the General Lee, so there's a couple things we have in common, she's even honest like me sometimes, and a hard worker, and even a caring... pony, someone who understands and listens, that's the real reason why I like her so much." I sat on the ground feeling like some person just let out his feelings and no one cared.

Twilight put a hoof on my shoulder and gave me a hug, "Applejack will understand." She said comforting.

"Thank you Twilight." I said returning the hug.

"You know you don't have to go home, you can still stay in Equestria or use the portal from your world to this world any time you want." She suggested.

"You really think so?" I said with hope.

"Of course, you set up one portal here and the other at your home and you can come her any time you want!" She smiled.

"Yeah," I smiled big, "It's like going to your next door neighbors, only cross dimensional." We continued to walk back to the farm.

We made it back to the farm, Applejack had a wagon loaded with apples ready for shipment soon, I wasn't ready to tell her I love her just yet, I just want to tell her that I'll be gone for a little while.

"Howdy there Twi, Hey John!" She waved.

"Hey!" I smiled, "Applejack I need to talk to you." We walked into the barn, I turned to Applejack, "Guess what, we've found a way for me to get home." I sounded like a fool just saying that.

Applejack looked at me with happiness and sadness, "You... found a way home?" she said with a bit of sadness in her voice.

"Yeah, we found these crystals at the bottom of the river and they can send John back to his world!" Twilight said.

I could tell that Applejack was a bit upset that I was leaving, I did want to do what Twilight did to Flash was just up and leave her, I made up my mind.

"Twilight, I don't want to leave." I said as Twilight looked at me with shock and confusion.

"What! Why?" She asked.

"I want to stay and help here on the farm." I said.

"But John, I thought you wanted to go home?" Applejack said, "Don't you want to see your family?"

"Oh I can still go see them and come back here." I said.

"What?" Applejack asked.

"These crystals can teleport form this world to my world any time I want." I explained.

"You really want to stay here and help out around the farm?" She asked, I nodded. "If that's your decision then your more then welcome to stay." She said reassuringly.

I kneeled down and hugged Applejack, "But I do have to go home first." I said, Twilight and Applejack raised their eyebrows, "I need to get a few things and check in with my family and tell them what I'm doing."

"Okay, cause your family is probably worried about ya'." She said.

"Yeah, my mother is probably close to calling the national guard to come look for me." I joked.

I set the crystals on the inside frame of the barn to make it big enough for the General to get through, I set them up in a rectangle, "Okay now I need to go through first and make another portal big enough for the General." I said.

I stepped through the portal and landed on the ground again with a thud, "Ugh, gotta make those entry's more safer." I stood up and took the crystals and found two tree parallel to each other and put them on the tree in a shape big enough for the General.

I got them set up and stepped back through, I grabbed my keys and was just about to get in the General Lee when, "Can I come too?" I turned to see Twilight, she wanted to go with me again to the real world.

"Why?" I asked.

"I want to see more of your world and learn about the... you know." She said meaning she really wanted to see the fandom of My Little Pony.

"Are you sure?" I asked, Twilight gave a reassuringly and stern nod. "Okay, hop in."

"How long ya' gonna be gone fer'?" Applejack asked.

"About two hours top's." I said sliding in the window, I started the General and looked over at Twilight, "You ready?" I asked, she nodded, I put it in drive and drove forward, and with a purple flash we were back in my world.

We drove to my hometown, I told Twilight to stay low so to not be seen, "Welcome to Covington, Georgia, Twilight!" as we drove through the town square.

"Wow!" She said peeking up from the front seat.

"You know this was the filming location for the first 5 episodes of the Dukes Of Hazzard, when I was 6 years old I never knew this area was famous for being in numerous movies and TV shows." I said, "And when my uncle introduced me to the show I was hooked on it for life."

On the way people where taking pictures of the General as I drove by, Twilight did her best to stay out of sight.

We got to my house I pulled into the driveway and saw my moms car in the driveway, "Oh boy, let's just hope she understands."

"What are you going to tell her?" Twilight asked.

"I don't know, I'll just have to make something up like I always do." I frowned.

"Just tell her that you have a job at a farm and you have a place to live and will be home after the harvest." She suggested.

"I'll try that, I just hope it works." I said lifting myself out of the driver side, "Um, could you hide in the garage if my mom come out to see the car?" I told her.

"Okay." She said as she used her magic and teleported herself inside the garage, we had two garages one connected to the house and the garage the in the backyard was the one I used to do my work in.

I walked in the backdoor to see my mother on the couch on her phone, "I have to call you back Mr Wright," She said hanging up the phone, "There you are! Where have you been!?" She exclaimed.

"I've been busy... working." I said.

"You know we were worried about you we were just about to call the police." She said in a stern voice. "Why haven't you called or told us where you were?

"I meant to call but I... left my phone here, and I meet someone to help me with my Charger and we built it into the General Lee." My mother looked out the back window and saw the car.

"Wow!" She gasped, "That's what you've been doing?"

"That and I found a job."

"A job, where?" She asked.

"Um... just some farm outta town, I've been working in an apple orchard." I said trying to be truthful.

"Oh, well that good you got a job and you got your car finished." She said.

"Yeah it's sort of a surprise, also I'm living at the farm till the harvest is finished, and I came back here to get a few things." I said.

"How long?" She asked.

"Just few more weeks till the harvest and then I'll come back home." I said.

My mother hugged me, "I'm proud of you for being responsible for doing something like this, I have to go and meet a guy about work so could you wait for your sister to come home, she really missed you."

"Sure, tell dad what I'm doing and tell him I love him too." I said to her.

"I will sweetie, bye, I'll see you soon." She said, I waved bye to her as walking out the door.

I walked out to the garage and saw Twilight reading a Mopar magazine, "Wow, machinery like this must be really powerful!?"

"Would you like to see the show?" I asked, Twilight was a bit nervous as she sat on the couch, I went to Netflix and found the show, "Ready?" I asked, she nodded.

After about watching five episodes she was smiling with pride, "This is amazing, I never though we could make show like this be so good."

"You ain't seen nothing yet!" I said, I heard the sound of a door hitch unlocking... it was Nicole!

"Quick hide!" I told Twilight.

The back door opened and my little sister Nicole came running in and gave me a big hug, "Johnny! I missed you!" She cried in my arms.

"I missed you too sweetie!" I said shedding a tear.

"When I saw you car out front, I knew you be home." She sniffled holding me tighter.

"Nicole, I want you too meet somebody, or somepony I should say." I smiled as I broke the hug.

"Somepony?" She tilted her head.

"It's okay, you can come in here now." I said into the kitchen.

I watched as Twilight peeked her head out of the doorway and smiled at her, I looked to see Nicole's eye's grow and her mouth opened, "This can't be real, I must be dreaming?"

"It's not a dream Nicole, it's real!" I said.

Twilight approached her, "Hello, Nicole, I'm a friend of your older brother." She greeted, she extended her hoof and Nicole reached up and touched Twilight's hoof, Twilight smiled at her, "It's okay sweetie, there's nothing to be afraid of." She said in a calm voice, Nicole suddenly hugged Twilight.

"You are real!" She whimpered, "How are you here?" She asked, "And how do you know my brother?"

Me and Twilight spent about the next 20 minutes telling her the whole story of how I was found in Equestria and how I saved Applejack and how we built the General Lee.

"Wow!" She sighed.

I had a good idea floating around in my head, "Hey Twilight, why don't you show her some magic while I... uh... go out to the garage." I mumbled.

"Okay." She replied.

I went outside and opened my garage door, I grabbed one of my large tool boxes and put it in the trunk, then I reached up in the rafters of the garage and pulled down my Martin Warthog bow and arrow set, I wanted to show Applejack my archery skills and also from protection from other things... like timber wolves... if it ever happens again, I eyeballed my ammo box of m80 firecrackers figured it would be fun to tie them to the bows and light 'em off, I'll have to be REALLY cautious of handling those.

I grabbed a couple odds and ends for my stay, I grabbed my second CB Radio for CB fun figured if Discord can use a CB why not Applejack and the others, I could give them CB handle's, that'd be cool.

I took the crystals out of my pocket and put them on the garage door frame in a rectangle for the trip back, a thought came to my mind... I had to show Nicole Equestria, this would mean the whole universe to her to see it.

Nicole visit's Equestria

I had just finished putting my things in the trunk of the General and made a double check to make sure I had everything I needed, I grabbed a 5 gallon gas can that was filled with fuel and put it in there as well.

I went back inside the house and found Twilight with Nicole in her room showing her collection of My Little Pony figures to Twilight, "And this is my little diorama of you library, Twilight." She said presenting her old Golden Oaks Library it to Twilight.

Twilight smiled in awe as she saw the creativeness she had, "Wow, sweetie that is amazing!" She said.

I figured she was occupied at the moment, I went to my room and got a quick change of clothes and grabbed my sport duffle bag and put some clothes in it, if I wanted to show Applejack the show I would have to take my small TV with a DVD player built in, I grabbed the TV and the Dukes of Hazzard Series and some of my favorite Burt Reynolds movies such as Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, Hooper and Stroker Ace,I took my things I was gonna take with me out to the General and put em in the trunk.

I went back inside and saw my sister and Twilight taking, they were talking about Equestria, "I wish I could see Equestria too, I would love to meet the other ponies and Applebloom." She said with hope.

I knew she was gonna ask about that sooner or later, I opened the door, "Well guess what kiddo, you're the luckiest little girl in the entire world right now, cause... you get to come with us for the day and see it."

Nicole's eye's went as wide as the Cutie Mark Crusaders eye's, "ARE YOU SERIOUS! REALLY?!" She jumped, Me and Twilight nodded, Nicole jumped up and gave a big hug, "YAY!!! I GET TO SEE EQUESTRIA!" She cheered.

"Sweetie, there's one thing you have to know," Twilight approached, "You must not tell any one about the show, okay?"

"What do you mean, Twilight, why can't I tell anyone about the show?" She asked.

I knelled down, "Sweetie when I told Twilight the truth about the show, it was really difficult for her to absorb, she wasn't sure of how to understand it till I told her how much the show means to a lot of people here," I said, "Now we must Pinkie swear to not tell anyone about the show," I stuck out my pinkie and looped it with hers.

"Cross are hearts, Hope to fly, Stick a cupcake in our eye!" We said in unison.

We walked out to the garage with Nicole on Twilight's back, "How are we gonna get to Equestria?" She asked.

"Magic." I smirked.

I made a double check to make sure I had the things I needed, I help Nicole into the front seat and Twilight used her teleport magic into the back seat and started up the General.

"John don't you need to open the garage door?" She asked nervously.

"Nope." My little sister covered her eye's as I drove forward, and with a bright purple flash we were back in Applejack's barn, I pulled up further so that we were out of the barn so she could see the beauty of Equestria, I looked over and saw Nicole covering her eye's and balled up, "It's okay sweetie," I said softly stroking her hair, "We're here."

Nicole pulled down her hands and saw herself completely cartooned and then looked out the window and saw Equestria, She let out a soft long gasp. "We're... we're..." She was in a loss for words.

"Yes sweetie, we're in Equestria." I said comforting.

Nicole looked like she wasn't wasting time she tried climbing out of the window and was having trouble, "Here sweetie let me help you." Twilight insisted as she teleported herself out of the backseat and in front of the passenger side door, and with a glow of her horn she levitated my little sister out of the window, it was really cute how she smiled when she was in Twilight magic aurora.

"Thank you Twilight." I said as she help her out of the car.

"Yeah! thank you." Nicole said as she hugged Twilight.

"Sure thing sweetie." She replied returning the hug.

I climbed out of the General and looked around for Applejack, but she was no where to be seen, she must be out somewhere in the orchard. "Twilight, could you watch her while I go and look for Applejack?" I asked.

"Of course." She nodded.

I walked through the orchard looking for Applejack and found her bucking a tree for apples, I noticed that she is very coordinated when she bucked the trees and the apples fell right into the baskets.

"Hey Applejack!" I called.

Applejack turned to me and smiled, "Hey you're back!" She replied.

"Want some help?" I asked walking up to one of the baskets.

"Sure." She replied.

I picked up one of the baskets and we began to walk back to the barn, "I brought a guest with me." I said.

"Who?" She asked.

"My little sister." I smiled.

"Really!?" She smiled, "Is she gonna be staying long?" She asked.

"Um... I brought her here to show her this world of magic and enchantment, she always wanted to see a world like this." I said as we walked back to the farm, I just hope my sister can keep it to herself no to tell anyone or pony that this is a TV show.

We made it back to the barn to find Twilight and Nicole next to the General waiting for me, "We're back!" I called, my sister turned her head and it looked like she was trying to hold back her excitement and walked over towards us, "Applejack I would like for you to meet my sister, Nicole." I said.

Applejack trotted gently towards her, "Howdy there sugarcube, your brother has told me lot about ya'." She said.

"Really?" She asked.

"Of course ever since he's been here, he always talks about you and your family." She replied.

"I know he really cares about me and our family." My sister replied.

"Wanna meet Applejack's sister, kiddo?" I asked.

Nicole gave a small smile, "Yeah." She smiled.

We walked through the orchard towards the CMC clubhouse where they were making plans on helping their friends get their cutie marks.

"Hey girls!" Applejack called up to their window, Applebloom poked her head out, "Yes Applejack?" She called.

"Come down here, there's someone I'd like you to meet." I said, I watched the three come out of the clubhouse and down the ramp, "Girl's, I'd like you to meet my little sister, Nicole." I introduced.

"Hi!" She smiled.

"Hello!" The said in unison as the trotted up to her, "It's so good to finally meet you." Applebloom said. The girls started to talk and they decided to show her their clubhouse.

"I've got to get back to my castle, I have to write some notes about what I've seen in your world." She said.

"Okay Twi, see ya'" Applejack waved.

"See ya' Later Twilight." I called.

I looked back up at the tree house hearing how much fun the girls were having up there, "I think she's in good hooves now with the girls." I said, "Would you like to see some of the stuff I brought back from my world?" I asked Applejack.

"Sure." She replied.

Me and Applejack walked back to the barn where I opened the trunk to the General and took out some things, I took out a box of tools and my duffle bag and then I took out my Mcculloch Eager Beaver chainsaw.

"What in tarnation is that?!" Applejack yelped.

"It's a chainsaw." I said, "It's used for cutting wood at a faster pace."

"Really?" She awed, "Do ya' think it could cut up firewood and cut some dead branches down?" She asked.

"Of course," I replied, "That's exactly what it does."

"Really? Then let see it can cut through that big ol' log." She bet me.

I smirked as I pulled the cord, the saw buzzed to life as I walked over to the log and lowered the blade onto it, it was like slicing warm butter and with in 15 seconds the cut log fell to the ground, I shut the saw of and turned to see Applejack's expression of awe.

"Boy Howdy!" She cheered, "That thing can cut wood faster then me or Big Mac."

I took the saw into the barn and set it on the work bench "Yeah, me and my grandpa went camping in the mountains one time and we needed a chainsaw and we bought this at a used hardware store and we cleaned it up and put a new bar and chain on it and made it run like brand new." I said sitting down on a hay bale.

"Wow, working on things and making em' run like new must be a thing you and your grandpa must be good at?" She said.

"Yeah, my grandpa taught me a lot of things about working on motors and how to be a independent do it yourself kinda guy." I said.

"He sounds like a good person." She complemented.

"He is." I smiled.

"You must really care for him." She added.

"I do," I sighed thinking about him and... Kevin, I started to let out a sad sniff.

"You okay sugarcube?" She asked.

"Yeah, it's... just that ...after... Kevin... passed away, I pretty much was his second hand around his house." I said a bit depressed.

"Who's Kevin?" She asked.

"My uncle, my grandpa's only son." I said sadly.

"Oh, that's sad." She comforted.

"Yeah, he was the one that got me going on the Dukes of Hazzard and it was his favorite show when he was a kid, he loved them old shows and them trucker movies, he even used the name Snowman from the movie Smokey and the Bandit as his CB handle when he drove a semi truck, he was everything to the family, till ...he passed away at 33." I said with a sniffle.

Applejack gasped, "My word so young, what happened?" She asked.

"Well, he was bit over weight and he had an enlarged heart and he smoked cigarettes and was a truck driver, and one night in January he started coughing really bad and it turned out he had caught pneumonia which is an infection that you get in your lungs, and he went into a coma and... (Sniff) ... He died two d-days later while we were all at the hospital." I cried.

"Oh sugarcube come here!" She comforted me into a hug.

Applejack's warm embraces comforted me so much that I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her back, "Thank you, that makes me feel a lot better, it was so tragic after he passed, my family was sad, including my grandma, after he passed... my grandma lost a part of her life that she would never get back... and about 7 years later... (Sniff) she... joined him." I said shedding another tear.

Applejack hugged me again to comfort my sorrow loss that I was feeling.

"I know right now that my Uncle Kevin is driving his big rig on that long highway in the sky and my Grandma is riding shotgun in the front seat with him." I sniffed looking up at the sky knowing they've been watching over me.

"I know what it's like to lose someone close to you... I've been through it as well when... my folks passed." She sniffed.

I returned the hug and stroked her mane in comfort, that was another thing we had in common, we've both experienced tragedy in our lives, I wanted to tell her how much I had feelings for her but now really wasn't the time.

I stood up and walked back over to the car pulled out my bow and arrow which was my Uncle's and now I owned it and take good care of it. "This was Uncle's and I took up archery a while ago and... I'm okay, but I still need practice for a good target." I said putting it on the side of the workbench.

The next thing I took out was the TV, "What's that?" Applejack asked.

"It's called a TV." I said.

'Tee-vee?" She said.

"Yeah, it's what people use to stay entertained in their homes instead of books." I said.

"Oh, is this the thing you watch the Duke's of Hazzard on?" She asked.

"Yep." I replied. "Maybe later I can set it up in the living room and we can watch a couple episodes I brought with me." I showed her the DVD box set.

"Okay." She answered.

"Hey John!" A childish voice called, I turned to see Nicole and the CMC's "Is it alright if Nicole stay's for supper?" Applebloom asked.

"Um... I don't know, Dad might come home soon and wonder where you are." I said.

"What if we go back and write a note saying that I went to a friends house for dinner and... SPENT THE NIGHT!" Nicole smiled with hope.

"Well.......?" I tried to think but there it was, the puppy dog face both Nicole and Applebloom were giving me, I couldn't say no. "(Sigh) Alright." Suddenly I was tackled into a hug.

"YAY!!!" She cried.

"Okay, but if you're gonna spend the night we have to at least do more then leave a note, okay sweetie?" I said.

"Mmhm." She nodded.

"Alright, I'll be right back I gonna go call Mom and tell her what were doing, Okay?" I said, she nodded again.

I walked back through the portal and wound up back in the garage, I stepped outside and grabbed my phone out and called my mom.

After three rings, "Hello?"

"He mom it's me, um, just to let you know that I dropped Nicole off at her friend Katie's, Alright?" I said.

"Okay, is she getting a ride home later?" She replied.

"Uh, no she say's she's gonna spend the night with her and come home tomorrow." I informed.

"Is she going with her to school tomorrow?" She asked.

My mind kinda stopped for a second, "Uh... Yeah I would think so, I mean they do go to school together." I replied.

"Okay, thank you sweetie for letting me know and I'll tell your father as soon as I get off the phone with you." She said.

"Alright Mom I see ya!" I said.

"Hey! have a good time working at the orchard and make some good money." She replied.

"I will Mom, thank you, I love you, Goodbye!" I said.

"Okay, bye hon' I love you too, bye!" And she hung up.

After putting my phone away I walked back through the portal and was back in the barn, I walked outside to see Nicole with the girls waiting with smiles on their faces.

"Well?" She asked impatiently.

"She said, okay." I replied.

"YAY!!!" They screamed.

Later that day we invited everyone to the farm to meet my little sister, Twilight, Spike, Pinkie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash who was pulling the black Trans Am behind her cause it was out of gas and had been sitting below her cloud home, she looked out of breath from pulling, then it hit me that she was a Pegasus and she wasn't as strong as an earth pony.

"Oh geez, Rainbow Dash you didn't have to pull the Trans Am here, if you would have told me I would've towed it with the General." I said.

"Oh..." She said with wide eyes, "I didn't really think of that."

"Here lets put some gas in the tank and get it filled." I offered.

"Yeah, but I think you should take care the Trans Am now." She said.

All I did was stare at her, "What!!!" I said with a small smile, "You haven't even seen Smokey and the Bandit yet, and you're tired of driving it around."

"It's not that, its just I don't have a place to keep it like how you do with the General." She said.

"Oh... you want me to keep it in the barn for safe keeping I see." I figured.

"Yeah, and anytime I want to drive it I'll come by and take it for a spin." She said

"We should race sometime." I said.

"Totally!" She replied with challenge.

I turned to see Pinkie talking to Nicole asking here what her favorite desserts were and what kind of party favors she likes, Fluttershy was admiring how sweet and cute she was, even Rarity admired her denim coverall skirt. "I do say sweetie, I've never seen denim fashioned in a way like that before." She said.

"Really, my mommy got these for me at Kmart." She replied.

"What's a Kay-mart?" Rarity asked.

"It's a store." She replied.

"Well I've never heard of it, I would really like to see it someday." She said.

"Well I don't know, I don't think they would allow ponies in a store where I'm from." She replied.

"Oh, really?" Rarity inquired, "Your world must really have some strange rules."

"Yeah, it does." She said.

"So since were all here how about we have a little party..."

"OOH, A WELCOME TO EQUESTRIA PARTY?!" Pinkie jumped blowing off her party cannon.

"Ummmm... Okay." I replied.

Later that day we had a small little party with the girls and I was in the living room hooking up the TV to the wall, thankfully the house had electricity, the TV worked and I decided to get everypony in the living room to watch the first Dukes of Hazzard episode "The One Armed Bandits".

"Soooooooo... What is this thing called again?" Dash asked looking at the disc.

"It's called a DVD." I replied.

"And this has a movie inside it?" She asked.

"Of course." I said taking the disc and putting it in the player, once the disc was in the main title screen appeared and I selected episode 1 "One Armed Bandits".

The episode opened up with the episode previews, giving the girls a tasted of what they were in for, then the opening credits rolled

"Wow, that was cool!" Dash exclaimed.

"You ain't seen nothin' yet." I added.

"Welcome to Hazzard County."

"WOW!" Dash exclaimed as she saw the General Lee in the show jump a hill and blew the dixie horn.

The girls watched as the Balladeer introduced the Duke boys, Bo and Luke Duke as they chased the sheriffs car.

"You drive like my fannie whips apple butter?" Applejack said trying to figure out the southern contents of that meaning. "That Cooter reminds me of my cousin Hayseed Turnuip Truck." She added.

The next scene was where they introduced Sheriff Roscoe and Boss Hogg as he was having breakfast of coffee and raw liver (Yuck!), well at least he don't dunk it, "I can tell I don't like them already." Applebloom grunted.

Later we meet Uncle Jesse and notice how much he's like Granny Smith. "Boy that Jesse Duke sure is handsome." The girls snickered at what she said.

"Awe, that very sweet how Bo has a crush on that girl Jill." Fluttershy.said

Next scene was introducing Daisy, as she was serving beer to a bunch of rowdy drunks, when she was in that fight Applejack said, "Boy howdy, she sure knows how to fight." she as she watched her knock a beer glass into Bo's face.

Next scene was in the junkyard, reminds me of the time me and my friends went off roading and I drove my car down some old dirt trails and kicked up a lot off dust.

We watched the episode and I could tell the others liked it some much their eyes were glued to the screen.

I had to explain a couple of thing in the show about the real life, such as saying Grace, and the fun of automobiles and some southern culture meanings and Moonshine.

I kinda had to cover Spike's eye's just for fun during the truck hijacking scene cause of Daisy's lack of clothes, Rarity also added, "My goodness, she's almost naked, and does she have to wear that in front of those stallions like that?"

"This. show. is. AWESOME!" Dash exclaimed as she watched the parking lot chase.

Later in the show they introduced Enos and he's crush for Daisy, "Awe, Enos is so sweet to Daisy.” Fluttershy said softly.

"That girl Jill doesn't realize how much Bo loves her." Applejack said, that kind of got me, cause it was the same thing between me and Applejack, I still didn't know how to approach her.

"Ooh, that jailbreak look like fun, especially if has balloons." Pinkie giggled, mentioning the blow up Daisy doll.

"Now girls you are gonna see one of the greatest car chase in this show." I said as the car chase began, It stared off as LEE 1 jumped over Roscoe's 74 Dodge Monaco, "That General Lee was the first one to make a jump on camera, after that it was repainted and used for another episode and then sold to a junkyard and sat for 30 years in a junkyard, till one day a guy saw the car and bought it, saved it and restored it to is original beauty." I told them.

The chase went on till it ended at the orphanage with the big party for Roscoe and it got him re-elected as Sheriff and the show ended with the General Lee taking off down the road.

"Well...?" I asked the girls?

"That show was great!" Applebloom said.

"I loved it!" Scootaloo jumped.

"That is the best tv show ever!!!" Dash shouted.

"The style's of there clothing is unusual." Rarity added.

"Well this show was made in 1978, and that how people dressed." I explained.

"Big Mac did you like it?" I asked.

"Yup." He replied.

The rest of the girls had a mix of positive respones, it was also getting late and the others had to get back to their homes, My lttle sister went upstairs with the Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle and got ready for bed.

I was tired myself so I walked upstairs and walked passed Appleblooms room and heard laughter, I opened the door to see them jumping on the bed, "Okay girls it's time for bed, my sister has school in the morning." I said as the stopped jumping and I smiled as they got snuggled together in bed, "Alright, sleep tight you girls." I said as I turned off the lights.

I walked down the hall towards the loft to the barn and passed by Applejack's room, "G'night John." She said.

I turned to her to see her taking off her hat and putting it on her bed post, "G'night Applejack." I said, I was just about to walk away till I stopped and stepped back into her doorway, "Applejack?" I asked.

"Yeah?" She asked looking at me.

"I... Uh..." I was frozen in place, I couldn't even think of a way to began of what I had to say, I've never really talked girls back home, I wasn't an outcast in school it was cause I was too shy and nice to people, plus I was always busy doing odd jobs around town.

"What?" Applejack said with wonder.

"Nothing." I smiled, as I left her doorway and out to the barn loft, as I stepped outside I sat on my cot feeling terrible, "Ugh, whats wrong with me." I grumbled, "Why can't I talk to girls especially someone who's like me, honest, gosh... Maybe if I get a goodnight sleep it will help." I sighed, I took my shirt off and pants and put my sleeping shorts cause it was little warm but cool that night and lied down and began to fall asleep, hopefully soon I can get the courage to tell her how I feel about her.

A Bad Nightmare/ Confessing Feelings

Author's Note

sorry it took me over a year to get to the next chapter, but I’ll get this story done down the road.

A Bad Nightmare/ Confessing Feelings

The warm rays from Celestia's sun shined bright down upon the land, I was driving the General Lee through the orchard with Applejack in the front seat and Nicole and Applebloom in the back, we were heading to a nice spot by the river to have a picnic, the cool breeze from the wind blew through Applejack's hair, I smiled as I looked over at her and she did the same to me when she smiled.

She knew that I liked her and I knew that she liked me but I just haven't got up the courage just yet to tell her.

I figured after eating I was going to ask Applejack to go for a walk with me and as soon I felt in the right moment I was going to tell her.

It felt like my life couldn't get any better then this.

"JOHNNY LOOK OUT!" Nicole screamed from the back seat as I looked forword to see a large timberwolf in the middle of the road.

I jerked the wheel suddenly to the left and the car went off the road, suddenly they car hit a fallen down tree and the car went up into the air on an angle.

The car crashed down hard and did four long barrel rolls, I felt myself being thrown from the front seat and out the window.

Next thing I knew I saw on the ground, hurt, I tried to stand up a bit I looked over to see the General on it's roof and Applejack, Applebloom and Nicole in the car badly hurt.

"OH NO!" I gasped trying to get up but my leg was broken, "APPLEJACK! NICOLE! APPLEBLOOM!" I screamed.

"JOHN HELP US!" I heard Applejack called.

I was moving slowly trying to get there as fast I could, next thing I saw was a small fire starting in the front on the engine.

"OH MY GOD!" I shivered, I have to get them out before the gas tank explodes, I couldn't go any faster cause of how bad my leg hurt, and for some reason it felt like an invisible force was holding me back.

Then I heard something that stopped me cold, a loud growl from the timberwolf as it came aroung the back of a large rock, and three more timberwolves followed, the circled the car and began to dig inside the General.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" I hear a shrieking from inside... it was Nicole. "HELP!!!"

"NO!!!" I heard Applejack call out as she tried to fight them off.

"NO! STOP!" I called out trying to rush over, but the more I tried to move, the more the slower it was for me to get to them.

Next thing I saw was the fire getting bigger and moving up the car, I had to save them but I was stopped when another timberwolf stood infront of me with a growl.

"JOHNNY! HEEEEEEEEEELLLLP!!!" Nicole screamed as I looked up to see the car's flame get bigger.

...Suddenly.

"BANG!!!"

The bright blast blinded me as I turned away, I turned my head back to see the timberwolf that was in front of me was now in pieces on fire, I looked up to see the General Lee engulfed in flames, the warmth of my heart inside of me went cold, and the inside of my body went numb, there was nothing left but a deep void.

"NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" I screamed in sadness as I watched the car burn.

"JOHN, WAKE UP NOW!!!" Called a voice.

(GASP) I snapped awake in the loft, I looked around to see it was still night time, it was only a dream, I looked down into the main floor of the barn to see the General Lee intact, I got up and quickly walked down the hall and looked in Applebloom's room to see her and my sister sleeping peacefully in bed, Nicole was hugging Applebloom as if she were a stuffed animal.

"Oh thank god! oh thank god!" I sighed as I quietly closed the door, I leaned up against a wall and slid down it, my heart was pounding harder then the pistons in the General as I tried to calm it down, “It was only a dream.” I shivered as I hugged my knees and began to cry.

"John?" A quiet voice called I looked over to see Applejack, awake at her doorway looking at me with worry.

"Oh thank heavens you're okay too!" I said as a I went over and embraced her into a hug.

"John, what's wrong sugarcube?" She asked.

"Oh Applejack, I had the worst nightmare." I sniffed, I stood up and went into her room and sat down on her bed. "I dreamed that we were riding in the General Lee and we got into a wreck and I was thrown from the car and I got a broken leg ...and You, Applebloom and Nicole were still in the car and these timberwolve started to attack and then the car... caught on fire and then... it... blew up... with you and our sisters inside it and I couldn't save you, I COULDN'T SAVE YOU!" I shivered into her arms.

"Shh, shh, it's alright sugarcube, it was only a bad dream." She said comforting.

"I couldn't save you." I repeated crying.

"Shh, it's alright, we're okay nothing bad like that is ever gonna happen to us." She said softly.

"I know, that's not the only thing though, I'm worried if something like that ever happend and I couldn't save you, your family or my sister, I would hate myself for the rest of my life." I sniffed.

"No, no, don't say that John, I've been in danger so many times before and me and my friends have came out of it alright." She said.

"I know, it's just that... I care about you so much." I said truthfully.

"...What?" She asked.

"Applejack, the reason why I choose to stay here is because I care about you, and I haven't been able to tell you how I feel till now." I knew now I have to say what I have to say, and I will take any reaction she'll have towards it. "Ever since the first day I came here and we escaped from those timberwolve the first time I felt a sudden connection between us, I realized that we share so much in common that I've built up deep feelings for you, I know I seem crazy telling you this now but its the truth Applejack, I care about you... a lot, and if you don’t feel the same way I do, ...I'll understand." I said.

I looked away from Applejack and began to cry again cause I knew she probably didn't feel the same way about me, I think I just hurt her feelings and now she's gonna want me to leave or leave Equestria.

I then felt her hoof on my hand, I look up at her and she was giving me a heartful smile, I smiled back at her as she embraced me with a hug, I heard a sniff from her cause she was starting to cry too.

"Oh John, I didn't know you felt that way about me." She sniffed.

"I do, and I'm glad that you know and accepted my feelings." I replied.

We broke the hug and we looked into each others eyes, there was a pause between us as blushes began to glow across our faces and we started to close the gap in between us, our lips meet with a soft press, ...it felt so... magical when we kissed, it was a very soft kiss, just the lips, the void I felt in me began to grow warm that it felt like something was added to my life, I reached up and cupped her face and stroked her cheek with my thumb, I broke the kiss we were still close just our noses were touching, I leaned my forehead against hers.

"You mind if I sleep in here tonight?" I asked, Applejack tilted her head to the question, it looked like she was thinking I was saying the wrong thing. "I mean, I just don't want to have anymore bad dreams tonight." I said properly.

Applejack smiled softly, "Sure sugarcube." She replied, I slid off the bed and laid down on the floor, "You don't have to sleep on the floor darlin'" She said, "The bed is big enough for the both of us."

I was a little nervous of that at first as I climbed into bed with her, I had to make sure I wasn't gonna do anything funny, you know, sleeping in bed with a girl or mare I should say, "That kinda sounded wierd.", but as I laid my head on the pillow I felt Applejack give me a kiss on my forehead.

"Somethin' my ma' use to do for me as a filly if I ever had bad dreams." She smiled, "G'night John." She said softly as she layed her head on the pillow facing me, she snuggled up towards me and wrapped one of her hooves around my arm.

I smiled at her, "Goodnight Applejack." I said as I placed my hand on her hoof that was holding me and I kissed her forehead as well, I laid back and felt happy that she was safe and I was going to protected her if anything ever happened, cause I knew deep down I am strong enough to, my eyes felt heavy as I started to close them without looking away from her, and then I fell asleep in her arms.

I awoke in a dark deep void and saw a dark blue arua come towards me, I didn't feel scared cause I knew it wasn't going to harm me.

"Princess Luna?" I asked out.

"Dear John, is thou alright?" She asked.

"Yes." I nodded.

Princess Luna sighed in relief, “That good, I was so worried, I know I made those bad dream disappear last time, but I think human dreams are different from pony dreams, and I couldn’t get here in time to stop it before the worst happened.” She approached me and put a hoof around me and gave me a hug, “I know that must have been worst nightmare you must have ever had.” She said laying her wing over me.

“It was.” I replied.

“John, does thou really feel that way about Applejack?” She asked.

I looked up to Luna and nodded, “Yes Luna, I do.” I replied, “How did you know?” I asked.

“I could sense it by how you look at her, and especially when you were trying to save her in your dream.” She said.

“Yes, I’ve already told her how I feel about her.” I replied.

“That’s good, cause she feels that same way about you as well.” Luna added.

“Really?” I asked.

“Yes.” She replied, “Before your dream she dreamt of you and her dancing at what she calls a “barn burner”, ...John, Applejack really does care for you as you do for her.

“I know.” I answered, “But I know that I can never have a real relationship with her.”

“Why’s that?” Luna asked.

“It’s just that...”

It was hard for me to explain to her, me a human in love with a pony, it’s strictly forbidden in my world, but here I wouldn’t think that the laws of love matter as long as you’re happy, but I have a family in the real world that needs me too, I wouldn’t want to just stay in Equestria forever and leave my family, I know it wouldn’t work, ....but.... I really love her.

“....John?” Luna said getting my attention.

“Never mind, I’ll have to figure it out on my own.” I said.

“Very well, is thou ready to wake up?” She asked, I nodded, and with a blur aura glow of her horn my eyes fluttered awake and I was still in Applejack’s bed, I looked over to see her still facing me, she looked so beautiful sleeping, I placed my hand on her cheek and stroked it with my thumb.

I watched as her eyes fluttered awake she looked at me and smiled.

“Mornin’.” She softly yawned.

“Mornin’.” I said back.

We both looked at each other, I leaned over and softly kissed her on her lips, I felt deep in my heart that I can do this, I was gonna stay with her. Me and The General Lee.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders

As the car sunk into the river with me I was doing my best to escape, I undid the seat belt and was just about to climb out of the window when suddenly their was a purple flash of light that surrounded me and the car, I fought for my life and escaped the sinking car and started to head towards the surface.

I reached the surface and suddenly I felt different, my surroundings were all bright and colorful and so was me... I was a cartoon.

"WHAT THE HECK!?" I cried out, I looked at myself, I looked like something out of a Lauren Faust cartoon, I had to figure out what happened and where I am.

I crawled out of the water and walked around to see where I was but I couldn't find anything, then I heard the sound of laughter there must be some kids nearby I figured they could help me out and I could figure out where I am.

I followed the source of the laughter of where it was coming from and came to some bushes and peeked through them and my heart nearly stopped from what I saw, it was Scootaloo, Applebloom and Sweetie Belle, they were playing ball and enjoying themselves, my mind started to race, I was in Equestria, in a cartoon, how did I get here?

I was still hiding in the bushes watching the little fillies play when suddenly I stepped on a stick and made a loud "CRACK", then they looked in my direction and I ducked down.

"Um... Hello is somepony there?" Said a voice from the other side of the bush.

I couldn't let them see me, I'm pretty sure they've never seen a human before, I got to make myself known so they don't look through the bushes and see me.

"Um... Hi there, don't be afraid, I'm just a little lost that's all." I said calmly.

"Why don't you come out, we won't hurt you." One of them said.

"Um... I'd like to but I'm afraid if I showed myself you would get scared." I told them.

"Scared?, Why would we get scared?" Another voice asked.

"Um... Let's just say I'm different okay." I said.

"How... Different?" Another voice said.

I had to figure out something to make these fillies understand, then an idea came to my mind... Twilight.

"Hey you... ponies know Twilight Sparkle right?" I asked.

"Yeah, You know Twilight!?" They asked.

"Um, sorta could you bring her here and let me talk to her, I think she will understand and help me out, could you do that for me please?" I asked.

"Sure we can do that for you." They said. "Just wait here well be back with her in no time." And they took off towards town.

I sat in the bushes wondering what will I say to Twilight will she understand, how will I get home, but most of all how am I going to get my car out of the river?
