Zake is finally coming home from college. It's been four long years. He wants to go see his sister,his little brother and his mom,and dad. He parked in the driveway to be greeted by his family.
"Zake!" yelled his little brother and sister.
"Come here you!" yelled Zake as he dropped his stuff and hugged his siblings.
"Zake..." said his mom as she walked and hugged her son.
"Mom I'm back!" exclaimed Zake
"Zake all it's good to see you!" exclaimed his father as he hugged his son.
"Thanks dad let me get my bags inside." said Zake as he entered his house.
"So you got any girlfriends?" asked his father as he followed him.
"No dad, not yet." Zake replied laughing.
"Ok I'll met you down stairs ok." said his father. Zake went downstairs and saw his family waiting for him. Then he noticed the news was on, he turned his head to see a devastating attack.
"I'm here in New York City were a nuke went off several minutes ago and it......." the reporter was cut off by static. (they live outside of Chicago city)
"Anyone in these areas should evacuate instantly, Miami, Washington D.C, San Dieago,and Chicago should evacuate imeadiatly." then the T.V turned into static.
"Oh no!"he ran to get his family when he saw a nuke go off nearby. All he saw was his family burning, alive. Then he was pushed back several feet then all he saw was white. He woke up in a field. Then he got up he turned around to see a cliff. He saw a city on the mountain,a forest, and what looked like a small town in the distant.
"Where am I?" Zake asked himself. He decided to head to the town. He didn't know how to get to the city. So he started to climb down it seemed like forever but after a hour or two he made it to the bottom. He looked up to see a rainbow being formed.
"That's so cool." he told himself. He looked to his left and saw his brother, he looked up, he had no eyes he made an evil laugh, and disappeared.
"Jonny, is that you please don't leave I'm here." he saw nothing but all he heard was a soft voice saying "why". It was faint but he could here it. He ignored it and headed toward the town. He was tired, hungry, and sad. His family was killed by who knows and he ended up in some Random place. He finally got to the town. When he entered all he saw was ponies, he didn't move or say anything he was really, freaked out and scared. Then a orange pony came up too him he took a step back.
"Sorry ah scared you, can you talk?" asked the curious pony.
"I.... Can talk, but... How can you talk?" asked the frightened Zake.
"We all talk." she pointed out everyone....every pony.
"But on earth we ride ponies, they don't talk." he noticed that the pony was very confused about what he said. Then a white Pony with wings and a horn came out of nowhere and every pony bowed. Zake stand still very scared.
"Sorry about everything, my name is Princess Celestia. Your not on earth anymore you in Equestria." Zake nearly passed out because of what she said.
"Oh but what happened how did I get here?" asked the frightened Zake. The white pony just looked at him. Them it started to rain.
"We need to get you inside here follow me." He followed her to a tree.
"What are we doing here?" asked Zake.
"We are going to talk to my star pupil." she replied while opening the door. She was greeted by a small purple dragon.
"Um Princess I don't mean to be rude or anything but who is that?" asked the dragon.
"Oh i didn't get your name." said the Princess.
"Zake, my name is Zake." answered Zake
"That's a nice name." said the Princess.
"Nice to meet you Zake." said the Dragon.
"Um, nice to meet you to." said the confused Zake.
"Princess!" yelled a purple unicorn. She ran up to her and hugged her
"Um Princess who is this?" asked the purple unicorn.
"Zake this is Twilight Sparkle, Twilight this is Zake." said the Princess.
"Hello." said Zake.
"Hi Zake." said Twilight Sparkle. Then a orange pony came in.
"Hey Twi did you see that...oh hi."said the orange pony.
"The names Zake, Yours?" asked Zake.
"Oh my name is Apple Jack, um Twi can you help with apple bucking tomorrow?" asked Apple jack.
"Yes of course um Zake do you wanna help?' asked Twilight.
"Sure, I'll help." said Zake.
"Twilight can Zake stay here?" asked the Princess.
"Of course we have a guess bedroom." replied Twilight.
"Ok well I have to go to Canterlot for a important meeting please take care Zake." said the Princess leaving followed by Apple jack.
"So let me so you your room." said Twilight. Twilight opened the door to a plain one bed and one bathroom bedroom.
"Thanks for letting me stay." said Zake.
"Any time. Also you might want to know what happens in Equestria." said Twilight going into the library.
"Yeah of course." Zake walked into the library. They spent what seemed like hours. Twilight would tell Zake what the Elements of Hamony are and what is Equestria. He was absorbing so much information he had a headache. After they finished he went to bed.
"Thanks Twilight." said Zake as he entered his room. He looked out his window, he looked up to the night sky, what seemed like forever. Then a small breeze came into the room, them he heard what seemed like a door opening. He went to the door and opened it he saw nothing. Then he went to bed wondering what was that sound. Then the same sound happened he opened his door to see nothing. Then he closed the door and went to bed.

"What! You sent me here to get haunted by my family." tears were slowly coming out of his eyes.
"Please send me back to my world." said Zake.
"I can't you'll die!" yelled Luna.
"At least I'll die like the rest of my family!" yelled Zake running out to the Train tracks. He entered the train and took the seat. Crying.
"Are you ok?" asked a Unfimilar pony.
"No I'm not ok." replied Zake.
"I'm Spritfire, we are going to Canterlot for our show do you want to come." said Spirtfire.
"Sure."He followed her to the next train cart that said Winderbolts only.

"Hey the names Soarin." he said he followed them to the last seat.
"So Zake why were you crying?" asked Spirtfire.

"Why am I'm under arrest?!" asked Zake.
"The Princess wants to talk to you." said a guard.
"I'm not going to talk to the Princess!" yelled Zake. He heard a guard whisper to the other guard.
"Where are we going to take the prisoner?" Zake punched him off and kicked the other away. He ran to the front of the train, with two guards chasing him. Zake looked back at the guards the to the front of the train. He saw his sister!
"Your going to burn.........." he ran passed her crying then ever seat was filled with his sister. Then he saw his family standing in front off him. All of them did not have any eyes they were hollow and blood was coming out. He stood still the he was tackled to the ground. Then a guard punched him out cold. Zake woke up being dragged into a castle. Then he was shoved on the ground. He slowly got up and saw the mane 6, the princesses, and spike.
"Why did you attack a guard?" asked the Princess.
"They attacked me!" yelled Zake. He turned to his left to see his sister.
"No..... I told them to arrest you. You need help." said Celestia.
"No I need to go to my planet." replied Zake.
"Like I said you'll die on earth." interupted Luna. Then the ground was shaking. Then a Changling fell into the window and took Zake.
"Zake!" yelled the mane 6. They were to late, he was captured. Zake was being lifted of the ground then he saw Rainbow Dash following them. Zake looked down to the waterfall. He quickly punched the Changling which made him let Zake go. Zake was trying to glide to the waterfall. The highspeed wind was pushing him away. Then he couldn't glide. He was heading straight for the forest. Then he stopped like someone was holding him. He looked up to see Rainbow Dash and Futtershy, holding him.
"Thank you." said Zake.
"Anyday!" yelled Rainbow Dash.
"Oh your welcome." replied the shy pony. They slowly flew Zake back to the castle. When they dropped him, he asked a question.
"Please, send me back to my world." he said.
"For the last time I can't." He heard her mutter something to herself.
"Why would a Changling want Zake?" asked Twilight.
"I need to go back to my world before it gets out of hand." said Zake.
"I can't." replied the princess. Zake turned to his right to the mane 6 and then he turned to his left to his his dead family, waiting for him.
"I know!" yelled Twilight.
"Well." said the princess.
"His love for his family." said Twilight. Zake fell to his knees, he felt a hoof, then 5 more.
"Get off please" he said. They quickly got off. Then he rushed out of the room.
"Should I go get him." said Spike.

"Hey why were you under arrest?" asked Soarin.
"Long story." replied Zake. All he was thinking about was why were they still were following him. Then a large black cloud of lightning formed above Cantelot. It was raining really bad.
"He follow us!" yelled Spirtfire. They all ran to a hotel that said wonderbolts HQ on the top.
"Wow." Zake muttered to himself.
"Well here we are Zake." said Spirtfire.
"You r-remembered my name." said Zake.
"Of course I did." replied Spirtfire. Zake saw Soarin was a little mad for no reason. They went upstairs to a bedroom.
"Uh Spirtfire w-what is that the new human?" asked Blazeshot.
"Yes Blazeshot he's going to stay here for a while." said Spirtfire.
"Zake this is Blazeshot who is best at diving straight down into the ground with out breaking a bone." said Spirtfire.

"Ok but I can't stop that, only you can, facess your fear and kill it." said his father.
"Oh I never thought of it like that. But do you know why I'm here." He looked back at where his father was, he wasn't there.

"Hi Spirtfire." he said Lazily.
"Well I talked to the boss and you are now a Wonderbolt!" she said Happily.
"Thank you so much but what will I do?" asked Zake.
"Oh you will help us with business deals and other stuff around that line." said Spirtfire.
"Spirtfire are you coming!" yelled Soarin.
"Oh yeah, Zake do you want to go swimming with us." asked Spirtfire.
"Yeah sure." she went to the down stairs into the pool. He went downstairs to the pool. Then he took a bench and took his shirt off. He started to tan. He heard ponies laughing and playing in the water.
"Hey Zake come into the water it's nice!" yelled Spirtfire.
"I'm going to tan a little while then I'll go in." replied Zake.

Soarin snapped out of it and started yelling, then Zake threw him into the pool. He got back on the bench, and put his shades on that he had in his pockets. He heard hooves coming his way.
"All are you mad that you were threw into the pool." said Spirtfire.
"Your next!" yelled Zake getting out of his bench and picking her up. She squirmed until she was thrown into the pool. Zake started laughing. Then Soarin and Spirtfire got out and threw him into the pool. After they were done Zake went back into there room.

"Correct." said his dad.
"I just wish you could be here with me." he started to cry.
"I know that Jessie would love this place, and Jonny would mess around. They would love this place." he really started to cry now.
"Why am I here dad?" asked Zake.
