Darkness and Magic

"So let me get this straight," I started pointing out the names of the ponies, "you're Rarity," I pointed towards the silver one.

"How do you do darling," Then I pointed to the pink.

"And you're Pinkamena Diane Pie. Can I call you Pinkie?"

She nodded, "Of course, everyone does silly! Well, apart from my parents of course."

I nodded, and turned to the next two, "You're Apple Jack, and you're Fluttershy, correct?" The orange one, Apple Jack nodded, and Fluttershy shyly nodded. I then looked at the last one, "Well, I've seen you on Youtube before. You're Rainbow Dash, She proudly stood up, and I just sighed, "Calm yourself girl. Alright, so we can go ahead, and figure out a way to get you girls back in your world!"

"Wait, I came here so that I can study you," I was just a study specimen for them, or Twilight rather, so I refused to do so.

"I'm not going to be your study specimen Twilight. You need to go back to your world. Who knows who is looking for you girls. Besides, I want to wonder why the five of you are here. Twilight explained herself, but what about the rest of you?"

"We all wanted to see where our friend Twilight was going. There was a portal she jumped through, and we followed her through before it closed," Twilight shrugged her shoulders, and I sighed in frustration.

"Well, my little sister comes home in about 6 or 7 hours. For now, I guess I can research you girls. Twilight, follow me, you can probably help me a little," She nodded, and I looked at the other ponies, specifically Pinkie, "All of you, stay in the house. Don't leave or break anything. I'm looking at you Pinkie."

"What are you talking about silly? I would never break anything," I slightly stared her down as I walked towards my room. I then remembered the cannon.

"No party cannons!" I saw Pinkie already had one out, and she nervously smiled as she pushed it back behind her, "Hm, Twilight, who should I put in charge?" She pointed her hoof at Fluttershy, "Are you sure? Isn't she not.. you know... assertive?" She shrugged her shoulders again, and I sighed, "Very well, Fluttershy, make sure they don't mess with anything, alright?"

"U-Uh... I don't think this is...," I knew what she was going to say, but I had no time to lose.

"Look, I know you're too shy, but I know you can do this. Just be a little more... assertive. Not too assertive, but just enough to show authority," She nervously nodded as I walked to room with Twilight, "Alright Twilight, let's see how most of you are," I scrolled through the wiki, and asked Twilight to confirm each piece of information, "Hm, most of your personalities really match your names. Those tattoos on your flanks also state it represents a distinguished characteristic you girls would have. Well, I think I should get to checking on the girls. I have to pick up my little sister in about an hour, so I need to make sure the home isn't in tatter while I'm gone. When I leave, you're in charge. You're the most mature one in this group... wow that's weird saying that to a pony."

She nodded as we walked towards the living room. I found that all the girls except Fluttershy were asleep, "Whoa...," Fluttershy heard me, and she yelped, jumping behind the couch as she did so. I walked behind the couch to check on her, "Sorry," I pat her on the head to soothe her, and she slowly began to do so, "How did you get them to fall a sleep?"

"I sung them a lullaby. It was pretty easy. They won't be awake for a while," I smiled as I walked towards the door. She quietly asked, "Where are you going?"

I grabbed my jacket as I turned to answer her, "I have to pick up my sister from school. I'll be back in about 30 minutes or so. Twilight will be in charge, but I still think you did a stellar job. Thanks Flutters," She blushed a light shade of pink, and even though I was weirded out, I still smiled.

I proceeded to walk out the door, and all I could do was sigh. This was my life..., and I'm glad I'm taking all along for the ride. Literally and figuratively...
