The night dragged itself into the early hours of the morning, the sky above Ponyville putting on its best display, glowing peacefully as the town slept below. Of course something needed to break the peace, and so that's what happened. In the form of a red meteor that would be, on the approach, it looked like an ordinary falling star, but as it grew closer it came clear that it wasn't just that… something more, definitely… it had shape like that of some crystal, a glow of bright red one too as it flew through the atmosphere.
Twilight had devoted her time and studies, even prioritising it over her very friends. The studies of the Void, this alternate realm where the laws of what we came to know as science itself simply couldn't be arsed to obey its laws and with that ideology it of course decided to ‘wing it’... that's what the hip pegasi say isn't it? The Void could be accessed by forcing it open with a ‘Torsion Beam Device’ as well as a crafted Void Key, doing so allowed access into the Void. Twilight would work on refining and harnessing the energies encountered the Void daily and often into the night. It had consumed her, driven mad to uncover its secrets and find the uses as well as reason for its existence.
Her glance turned to the clock, 02:53 it flashed. At the same time an alert came through her main computer, that signature beep sounding to draw Twilight’s attention. She sighed as she dropped the wrench onto the tool cart before rolling over on her favourite wheeled chair. The monitor reads the following “Foreign object on approach to Sweet Apple Acres”. When Twilight had finished reading that, her attention turned to another alert; beep to be heard again. This time it was something different “Energy surge at Sweet Apple Acres”. Seconds later a whole slew of warning overcame the system, the disruptive powers of the Chaos energy from the meteorite was far too much for the system as a tripped the failsafe, suffocating the room of light as the power cut out.
There was a loud boom as the space object crashed through one of Sweet Apple Acres many tree domes. Exploding into red and black crystal. 5 trees were showered in the red crystal, encasing them like ice. The tree domes were originally made to protect trees from that kind of damage but whatever the meteor was made of, the barrier didn't stand a chance.
When Twilight heard the sudden explosion from afar, she tore off the lab coat and threw it carelessly onto the lab floor. She rushed to the corner of the room and opened a capsule using both her hand and retina. Inside the large metal capsule it was her prototype exo suit, she happily put it on. Being back in the exoskeleton was a welcome thing; making mobility far greater for her alone was enough of an advantage as it was, never mind practically being a mini Megaspell Chamber which could be carried everywhere.
Twilight twisted a few dials and flipped a few switches, the corners of her vision glow blue. The exo had a wire that dug into the nape of her neck and intertwined with her brain stem. Now connected the suits primary heads up display interlaced with her optical nerves. Allowing her to see a mini map of the entirety of Ponyville.
Twilight sprinted up the stairs from her basement lab, through the main hall, up more stairs and out onto the balcony. She grabbed the telescope that was conveniently strapped to the railing. Sliding it into a more suitable position, she looked through it and aimed it at the crash site. The telescope combined with her exo gave her a better view of the craters contents through the crystal tree dome.
In the center of the crash site was a large chunk of red crystal in the center was a large biped, no visible signs of fur. The only hair was on top of his head and a little on his face. His clothes were gone leaving him totally exposed. Since he wasn't a pony he had no sheath, obvious reason Twilight dubbed the creature as a HE. He had a rather muscular build, and showed signs of slight malnourishment.
With a quick build in magic and flash of light stemming from her horn, she disappeared from her current spot on the balcony. The teleport sent Twilight through a quick dive in a dimension of broken physics, the void, it allowed her to cover the distance quickly before silently coming out of the void at the other end. Twilight had chosen a spot within an intact tree, of course this tree provided a view into the crater and this spectacular creature... could that be what Lyra spoke off. Swiping the touchpad on her arm she got an accurate X-Ray of the human. His bones had multiple fractures and dislocations.
Judging by the relaxed expression and dark rings around his eyes it looked like he was deceased and died peacefully. Whatever he was he was likely dead. Another noticeable feature was that it's neck had a large bruise on it. Almost as if it hung itself, suicide wasn't common in Equestria but Twilight could tell this thing WASN'T Equestrian.
Swiping the pad again, Twilight's eyes flash blue. This time she got a good view of the creatures internals. It was in that moment she saw the main reason of his death. His entire stomach was filled with alien crystal, it was perfectly solidified. Almost as if the crystal was a liquid turned solid. ‘Poor Stallion…’ With one final swipe her eyes flash green, this time examining his magic. The entire outline of the creature exploded into lime green color. For a moment it caused her vision to go static. The amount of magic energy that the, crystal was packing was enough to power Canterlot for years! It was a fusion of Chaos, Harmony, Darkness, and light.
Utilising powers she'd learn from the local 'bassist' Vinyl Scratch, she did her best to get a response from the creature. The first attempt was very simply smacking a pocket of high pressured air against the ground to create a large 'booming' sound. Twilight watched and waited for the Crystal’s reaction.
The creature stuck inside the crystal was not affected sound blast. The sudden noise shift only seemed to crack the crystal. It was like a bug trapped in Amber, no response, not a single sign of life. Even if the male was alive it wouldn't be able to move.
In Twilight's mind this discovery had to be brought back to the lab, It had to be studied. These combined magics, it didn't work; it wasn't possible. Only one type of magic could be used at time due to the limits of Focus. Attempting to use more than one type at a time caused heavy drain and has been proven to cause damage to the users who attempted the feats. This thing needed to be studied. The second blast of pressurized air hit the crystal as Twilight jumped back, hoping the crystal would finally shatter.
Rather than shattering the crystal grew spiderwebbed cracks all around it. It all slowly melted, going from solid to semi liquid. Almost like snot. All the magnified magic was absorbed into the creature's skin. The crystal globs went from red to a colorless grey. The naked creature was crumpled in the puddle
Twi' approached the pile of liquid and reached down to lift the creature out of it. She wasn't going to risk pulling it into the Void. What she already knew and understood couldn't be applied to this, the results of this much contained power being pulled into the void could be instantly fatal for the both of them.
The creature was ice cold, cold enough to feel thought her exo. His skin shifted around like rubber from how cold he was. Now that the crystal was removed from his body he smelled oddly like copper or blood....even though he didn't show signs of bleeding.
Twilight knew she'd have to find a discreet way back to her castle...and the laboratory. If she was saw with this thing it could cause major controversy and no one wanted to prove Lyra right at this point, fortunately the back way existed. Twilight began to carry the creature out of the crater as she gazed up the night sky, wondering if it did come from behind the atmosphere.
The creature's body was limp like a puppet without strings. Bits and pieces of the slime trailed down his skin and dripped onto the ground. It was quiet out that night, the only sounds were that of the crickets chirping, and the frogs croaking.
She trekked her way along the lake on the borders of the forest, avoiding most of the built up area of ponyville before finding herself around the back of the castle. Using her magic she unlocked the doors from the inside before pulling them open.
The creature doesn't move, it's body just sloshed around with her movements. Its eyes twitch but it was barely noticeable. Black mist seemed to leak from the shadows, attracted to the creature, they bleed into his skin, the chaos, the darkness, all that magic began to overload her exo suit.
Luckily failsafes had been added to the exosuit. Several vents at the back of the suit opened up, along with an additional pair on the legs. All additional energy was converted to heat as a pair of compact turbines used for jump assist became cooling fans, forcing out burning hot air. The legs however; passively cooled.
She brought him through the castle while her suit tried to remove the excess energy. Once in the basement laboratory she placed him on an empty table in the middle of the room, throwing a small pillow under his head to support it. "What am I going to do with you..." she mumbled under her breath.
Seemingly at her words the creatures eyes snap open and he lets loose a choked gasp. It's eyes are bloodshot, his fingers and toes curl. His mouth opens and let's loose a scream of complete and total AGONY. His veins are black from the mix magic that coursed through them.
Lights flicker and the energy spikes go off the charts. The screams grow louder and louder, his eyes roll up and turn black. Black particles raise up and swirl around the room. They knock over anything that wasn't nailed down. It grew to the point one of the monitors exploded, so much energy, it was nearly nuclear.
If this energy continued it could potentially rip the entire castle apart, she had to channel it into something. Of course being the anti-social freak Twilight had became played to her advantage; many of her experiments came into the category of super weapons and mega spells...and of course the Void.
The issue still stood however, Twilight had to find a way to channel this energy incase it continued to flow from the creature. Nothing she had could handle the energy from him, her only choice would be to harness the Void.
The creature rolled off the table onto his hands and knees. He vomit crimson liquid crystal onto the floor, the more he threw up, the more the energy seemed to decrease. Twilight remembered how the red crystal seemed to magnify magical energy. If the creature had that stuff in his body it manipulated his magical field, increasing its potency, and overall power. It was remarkable that he hasn't completely blown up yet. The creature got to its feet, clenching its fist, his teeth gritted, his eyes shut tight, each step he took towards the lab table hurt.
His skin felt like it was burning, he fell on one knee, gripping a glass beaker on the opposite table. He screams and smashes the glass, aiming the sharp end to himself, in a swift movement the deed was done. Blood spurt from the open wound. The magic pulses that emanated from his body dulled down, the life from his eyes fading.
While he was in the deed of practically killing himself, Twilight was at work with her Torsion-Beam device. She slammed a suitable Void Key into the slot and activated it in a rift mode. The entire room became locked in time, Only Twilight being able to move and interactive with the objects inside the room. She came over to him and pulled out the glass before trying to perform a revival spell on him. Although with this much suspended magic within the rift it may be blocked by the collections of energy that form out of the suspended magic in the rift.
Despite all the magic being suspended it seemed to analyse the revival spell, like a living entity. The wound around the creature's neck sealed shut from the combined healing magic, not even leaving a scar.
When the intense magic eventually died down, she cleaned him up and clothed him, taking him upstairs and setting him into a bed in a spare bedroom. The thick sheets tucked tight around him for warmth while the middle of winter raged on outside. Twilight only managed to sleep for around six hours herself before she woke up.
//First person pov: Ember//
I sit up in bed, my head throbbed, my eyes itched and my vision was a blur. The only thing I could see was the purple sheets. 'Purple...? T-this isn't my bed?" When my vision cleared I looked around crystal walls, holographic photograph of the elements of harmony, a bookshelf, a holo tv, a computer, and some other futuristic technology.
"This isn't my room! O-oh god....I'm losing it! W-where am I?!" I shakily curl up in the covers. My heart rate increased, the last thing I could remember was clicking a download link on my computer then...nothing. It was like I was plunged into an empty void of nothing.
Twilight could hear me panicking from the other room, she wasn't in her exo suit ,simply in her pyjamas. Her curiosity wouldn't allow her to prevent herself from walking in practically unarmored. She pulled the covers off herself and threw on some more presentable attire, before leaving the room, and heading down the corridor to his room. Her hand grasped ahold of the door handle and twisted it, pushing open the door to see what the creature was like while awake.
My head instantly snapped in the direction of the opening door. When my eyes locked with Twilight's all the color drained from my face. 'W-what the fuck is that thing?' I thought to myself as I slowly backed up against the headrest of the bed. Clearing my throat I open my mouth to speak. "Who....or what...ARE you?" I speak in clear Equine language. My eyes darted around the room, looking for anything that I could possibly use as a makeshift weapon.
"That question is applicable to the one who asked it in this situation." Twilight said as she closed the door approaching the end of the bed and sitting down next to me, rather fearless. "You speak the language of my people, surely you must know something about us?" My fearful expression turned slightly confused, my eyes squinting.
"No! weird...pony...unicorn...winged...THING!" I only seemed to squirm further away from her. “In my eyes you look like some....child's fantasy!! W-where am I? Why am I here? Why does my head hurt?!" My chest rises and falls rapidly, I was panicking. To be sure I wasn't dreaming I pinched myself hard to be sure. When I felt the pain I was sure....this was no dream.
She wasn't exactly amused by the insult of being called a child's fantasy creature. Twilight knew the panicking wouldn't do me any good, wouldn't help her question me as well. "Calm down, you're panicking...all your questions will be answered in good time, all that matters now is that you need to calm down." She tried to speak with the softest, kindest and most caring voice she could; although she wasn't a Fluttershy, Twilight had it in her mind that she wasn't too bad. It wasn't smart to try and approach any further and so she stayed sitting on the end of the bed.
Closing my eyes I slow my breathing, I was rolling dice if I trusted her so I took the chance. "O-ok....I'm calm...c-can I get a name?" I asked her calmly but stuttered a little.
"Twilight, I'm Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship, I expect your name too?" The reply was expected, of course she'd want my name as well, after all it was only fair. Twilight kept herself on the end of the bed still. Waiting for the next I’d say. This was nothing irregular with the panicking, she'd often have Fluttershy come to her in dire need of comforting...after all friendship was truly carrots.
"I'm....Ember...a Homosapien or simply human. Sorry for coming off as rude but what exactly are you?" I ask and tilt my head. The anxiety and fear I felt was replaced with a burning curiosity. She the body of a human but many of the features were that of a pony. ‘Alicorn huh?’
"Well nice to meet you Ember." She held out her hand, hoping for a handshake from him or some kind of contact at least. "I myself am an Alicorn. A pony with both wings of a Pegasus and the horn of Unicorn." She turned to face him so I could see her better, her arm still extended in request for a handshake.
"Oh...well...where I'm from that species is considered a myth. I'm surprised that you actually exist...also...ponies don't speak." I fidget nervously and shake her hand. My once ice cold skin was surprisingly warm. "You have soft fur Miss. Sparkle" I smile.
She smiles and blushes when I manage to shake her hand. "Believe it or not...humans are actually mythology here." This, now this was getting crazy. Was it possible that there was more of these humans? Where were the humans? Is this time travel? The thoughts seemed to rush through both of our heads as we continued to try and make sense of it.
"Hmmm....in that case maybe I came from an alternate dimension?" I rub my chin and look her in the eyes. "That reminds me....where did you find me?" I raise a brow and scoot closer to Twilight.
"Not saying it isn't impossible...but I found you in a crater, surrounded by this weird crystal stuff which I may of shattered..." She wasn't joking when she spoke, although Twilight didn't get a good grasp on what had happened after she shattered the crystal, using the harnessed power of compressed air, learnt from Vinyl Scratch. She didn't know if I knew or understood what had happened to me at the time and what that crystal actually was.
"Crystal? Hmmm...well when I was at home I ordered a crystal online. I originally thought it would be a good present for my mom on her birthday...you know what I mean? It was pretty....but when clicked the link to buy it I passed out....then I felt something squeezing my neck. Then when I woke up...I felt like everything inside me was tearing itself to pieces...It burned...it felt....s-so....p-painful..." I looked down. "I heard voices....they...they screamed in my mind...." My pupils shrink and I grip my head.
"How are you feeling now? Are you okay?" Twilight was quick to take an interest to my well being, I was likely the first of my kind in Equestria, and could potentially be a scientific breakthrough, she had to keep me alive. "Do you need me to get anything in particular?"
"Just....water...please...." I murmur and look down at my hands. There was a brief moment when the veins pulse black. My tongue was dry as sandpaper, I swore that I could hear whispers in the very corner of my mind.
"Right away, don't go anywhere!" Twilight rushed out of the room and down the stairs, coming back up roughly a minute later with a large glass of water for him. She parked her ass on the edge of the bed again and held out her arm, this time offering the glass of water.
"Thanks..." I take the glass and eagerly gulp it down, my eyes closing. The water washed away the dry vomit taste in my mouth. When I was done I set the cup down on the dresser beside me. "Ok.....where exactly am I? What world? Country? State?" I ask while adjusting the purple shirt.
"You are in Ponyville, Equestria." Twilight smiles as she answers the question. "The names of our geographical cities and towns are based around our species as you'll probably see. Not sure who came up with all the pony puns.”
"Heh like Prance or Laspegas?" I say in a joking tone. Slowly I raised myself out of bed, my bare feet pressing against the hardwood floor. 'I could really go for a shower at the moment...' Mentally I screamed at how foul smelling I was. Surprisingly to Twilight it smelled rather......intoxicating?
"Yes, like that." She got a little giggle out of the joke. Twilight observed as I climbed out of bed and stood upon both legs. The line regarding the shower puzzled her. "A shower? You're joking right? You smell great!-I uh mean, you don't smell at all!" She hesitated half way through that and the blushing of embarrassment was quick to follow.
"Uhhh.....do you have a sweat fetish or something? I smell like complete crap right now..." I give Twilight a dumbfounded look.
"I'm not joking but you smell really good and I don't know why." She bit her lip gently as more of the intoxicating fumes filled her nose. "Of course I'm not stopping you from getting a shower."
Walking over to the further part of the room I opened the bathroom door...well more like it opened itself. I left my "smelly" shirt on the bed with Twi. When I entered I couldn't help but stare at the shower. It looked more like one of those med vats from Star Wars...you know the one Luke was put in episode 5?
I pull my pants off and step over to the shower. When I grew close the glad tube slide away for me to enter. To be honest I was a little nervous about going in, but one whiff of myself was more than enough to convince me, to get my ass in there.
The moment I stepped into the capsule the door shut and I was suddenly drenched head to toe in freezing cold water. I yelped and flailed around, my hand hitting the touch screen panel on the wall. Accidentally I turned the water from ice cold to boiling hot. I screamed in pain as the water burned me slightly. Quickly I set the temperature to medium, I sigh in relief when the water came out normal. "STUPID SPACE SHOWER!!!" Twilight could hear me scream from the shower.
She giggled upon hearing the reaction to the brat that was her shower. Twilight decided she ought to prepare some clothes at least for him. Soon she had laid out some casual clothes for him while she got changed into something to match the mood.
I examine the settings for the shower, Scrub, soap, shampoo, wash, and dry. I click soap and I felt goopy purple soap rain down on my head. It smelled like lavender, sweet, sweet lavender. Like...her....Ember blushes softly and shakes his head. 'Am I seriously crushing on a fucking pony? We barely even know each other' I thought as I clicked scrub. The sides of the capsule open up to reveal sponges, mechanical arms attached to them reach out and start scrubbing my body. The muck, grime, sweat, and a bit of mud went down the drain. 'I mean....In a way...she is pretty hot...' I blush harder and slap myself. "No....bad brain..." I mumble.
While I fantasised in the shower, Twilight had got out her pair of in-ear headphones and began listening to a mix of funk and acid jazz. While she did this; it occurred to her that she should prepare something for m to eat; but what was the main question.
I pressed the shampoo option and once again shampoo soap rained down in the waters place. Smiling I reach up and scrub my hair, my fingers scratching and rubbing away the dirt. The sponges scrub a little faster before I press the stop button. Both mechanical arms retract into the walls of the capsule, taking the sponges with them.
Finally I click on the wash option, the soap turned to normal water, washing away the soap, and into the large drain below my feet. When it was all said and done I press the dry option. Like a large hair dryer warm air shot from all sides, drying me off in moments. "Gotta hand it to you space shower....maybe your not so bad..." I chuckle and step out. Picking up the smelly clothes I toss them down what I believed to be a hamper.
Opening the bathroom door I walk into the room. I was still completely naked, my masculinity hanging free. 'No towel in the bathroom...I give this home 4 stars' I mentally snickered.
Luckily Twilight wasn't in the bedroom, instead she was downstairs making me something in the kitchen. "I've left some towels and clothes in the bedroom for you!" She called up from downstairs on what appeared to be a camera. She didn't lie either, as when he was in the bedroom he was greeted with a selection of casual clothes, although designed for a female he could probably make them work.
I put on a pair of blue boxers that appeared to have a symbol of a cloud shooting a rainbow bolt. 'Interesting design...' I slipped on a pair of purple jeans, an orange shirt, and socks. The "hoof shoes" didn't fit my feet so I just slipped on 3 pairs of socks.
Leaving the bedroom I followed the smell of food. Walking down the large crystal stairs I looked around in wonder. The castle was fucking HUUUUGE! "Dayum....this place is nice..." I say under my breath. Walking down I followed a glowing arrow with a sign labeled "Personal Dining Area" Smirking I walked in. 'Convenient...'
"Oh hey! So how'd you find the shower?" Twilight said as she span around to face me, leaning against the counter top as she questioned me. Twilight seemed to be cooking some sort of bread...she wouldn't have meat would she? Horses don't eat meat…
I sit down at the dining room table near the kitchen. Looking over at Twilight I snort when I heard her question. "You mean the space shower? Honestly? 5/10...might not shower for awhile." I snicker. 'Not that she would mind...' I thought back to the moment where Twilight said I smelled good, but to me I smelled like shit. 'This is weird....' I say mentally.
"Well you shouldn't really jump straight into the shower like that. C'mon this is basic stuff you ought to know this, Ember." Twilight joking remarked as she returned her attention to the bread she was preparing.
"Hey not every day you get dropped into a futuristic world filled with talking ponies..." I roll my eyes and wait for her to finish the bread. "What are you making by the way?" I ask curiously, raising a brow. It looked like normal bread but smelled a little bit....off. My stomach growled rather audibly.
"It's just bread to be honest, well the wheat is wild harvested, straight from the Everfree and tastes pretty good to be honest." Twilight drew out a bread knife and cut several slices off. "Any particular toppings you'd like?"
"Peanut butter and Jam?" I ask and drum my fingers on the table. It was surprising how well I was taking this "new dimension" shit, a normal person would be freaking out and going bat shit crazy. "So....what next after this? You know...after we get settled in?"
"Well what would you like? I'm just trying to get you comfortable first of all." Twilight mentioned as she spread out some peanut butter and jam on the slices of bread before bringing it over to the table on a plate. "Here you go." Twilight said as she lowered the plate onto the table.
"Well...hmm...nothing really comes to mind...other than a meal" I say as I pick up the sandwich and take a bite. I savor the flavor of a fresh sandwich. The jam tasted heavenly, having no factory material in them. "Mmmmmm yum"
"Are you sure nothing comes to mind? Because I thought you would of had some ideas by now." Twilight said teasingly as she leaned on the table for a few seconds before returning to the counter to dish up her food.
Twilight answered as she brought her meal over to the table. "Yes, of course."
"You first...I'm interested in what you might have to ask me..." I grin. Twilight looked to be the curious type, curious women always seem to be cute in my eyes. That and bold women who can kick ass.
"What the hell are the things on the bottom of your feet?" It wasn't perhaps the most important question to ask but someone was going to ask at one point, for Twilight of course had hooves while I had what she considered weird flipper things with stubby little fingers on them.
I couldn't help but laugh a little but managed to keep myself calm. "Hehe...well they are called toes...they help me balance and swim. The webbing between each toe helping me swim through the water."
"T-toes? Do you mind if...I get a...c-closer look at them?" It was an awkward question to ask. But she so badly wanted to get a better look at them, wishing to understand them and their uses further.
I shrug and pull the socks off letting her see my feet and toes. It felt a little weird but hey it was reasonable. I mean I was a new creature that they haven't seen before. "Go ahead..."
Twilight quickly hopped off her chair and got onto the floor, touching and feeling these strange pieces of his body. "These are so weird...I've never seen anything like it..." Twilight didn't exactly stop touching my feet after she said that line either. Little did she know she was treading on dangerous waters.
My breathing hitches because my feet were ticklish. Twilight could see and feel my feet squirming, desperately trying to get away from her. "Nngg..." I bite my lip to keep from laughing. ‘Must….contain….laughter!!’ I but my bottom lip hard enough to draw blood.
Twilight stops as soon as she sees me struggling. "A-are you alright? Did I do something wrong?" She takes a step back with a worried look on her face. Both her ears folded back and pressed against the sides of her head. She had the most heart wrenching expression I have ever seen
"N-nah just...er...a little....ticklish..." I say the last part quietly, a faint blush spreading across my cheeks.
My eyes spotted the devious smirk that spread across her face when she heard the quiet part of what I said. She edged back over and starting touching my feet again this time with intention to properly tickle them
"Oh shi-AH!! NOOO HAHAHA PLEASE NOO!!" I start laughing and squirming around in my seat. My eyes shut and I cry tears of laughter as she tickled me. "No moreeee!! Hahaha!" I thrashed around. Extremely ticklish around my feet apparently.
"Ticklish around the hooves...I'll have to add that to my notes." Twilight stopped, acknowledging that I wasn't exactly enjoying it. "Interesting hooves."
I sigh in relief going slack on my seat, thankful she stopped. "I...*pant*...really...*wheeze...* Hate...that..." I groan and catch my breath. Shaking the last tickles away it was my turn to ask a question. "Hmmm....well my turn...you little minx...Hmmm...how does it feel when I do THIS." I reach out and scratch behind her ear. Little did I know it was a...sensitive...spot.
As the hand began to scratch she completely lost her balance and fell onto the floor as she moaned out in pleasure. After a few seconds on the floor she came back to her senses, realising I stopped scratching behind her ear. "Get down here and scratch behind my ear!"
My eyes widen when I heard her moan and I felt all the blood rush to my cheeks. The thoughts that rushed through my mind made my head spin. I didn't know what to do in this situation. "U-uh...e-excuse me?"
"What are you waiting for?" She said as she looked up at me. Twilight herself now lying on her back on the floor.
"Isn't this a little.....weird?" I ask and look her up and down. Every curve, every attractive feature about her. Back in my world I was...kinda a furry. Punching my inner thigh I bite down on my lip.
Twilight continued to stare up, cocking her head to the side slightly. "This ear isn't going to scratch itself." She began to make a beaconing motion with her hand, beckoning me to come closer.
I cough nervously before kneeling beside her, my hand reaches out behind her mane, and my fingers dig in. They start to slowly scratch in a circular motion. ' This is so weird...' I thought and try my best to hide my embarrassed expression.
She gasped loudly as the hand began to scratch again. Twilight was in pure euphoria and she couldn't get enough of the sensation. Unfortunately scratching there yourself didn't give the same results as someone else doing it.
I look away, glad to see that she was enjoying herself. It felt a little awkward for me since I never "felt up" pony ears. 'Jeez she must really get a kick out of this...' My fingers press down hard and I scratch a little faster.
She gasped again as the fingers pressed harder, letting out a cry of pleasure as I began to scratch faster. Each rub and scratch bringing her closer and closer to the edge.
I press 2 fingers down on the most sensitive spot and then gently pinch. Checking her reaction. 'So she likes this eh? I'll remember that...' The thought was now stored in the corner of my mind for possible use in the near future. While the both of us sat on the floor enjoying a good ol' bit of ear scratching a very particular Pegasus had entered the castle unnoticed.
"I gotta hand it to you Twi, you'll do anything to be scratched behind you ear." The rainbow maned pegasus known as Rainbow Dash snickered, as she watched Twilight jump upwards in surprise. Trying to act as if nothing was even happening, she kept her hand on my head hoping I wouldn't rise up and be seen.
I was confused for a moment then I realize the dilemma. 'Oh shit...someone else is here!!' My body presses flat against the floor and I army crawled under the table. I could only see the bright blue fur of the new person...pony? I didn't bother to check for any more features than what I saw. Last thing I needed was to get spotted and have her go screaming to the whole town about a monster.
Sadly Rainbow Dash had already seen me. "Twi? What the buck is that? You made some new android, and all you do is order him to scratch behind your ear? Is this some sort of cruel joke?"
Twilight tried her best to shrug it off but R.D. wasn't buying it. Thankfully she didn't scramble away hollering about a “monster in Ponyville”.
"Come on Dash this is nothing, I've got everything under control." I could tell just by Twilight's tone that she really didn't. Dash was more interested in me anyway as she flew over and started poking and prodding me. Getting uncomfortably close from time to time. He large cartoon eyes staring into mine. It gave me the creeps.
"Um...hi? You're erm....colorful?" I try to come up with a compliment that could break the tension in the room. In this kind of situation I kinda wouldn't know what to say or do. From the looks of her muscular but slim figure I hypothesized that she was an athlete.
After bending down to get an even closer look, which became really uncomfortable for me, R.D stood back up and looked over to Twi. "I think you're TOY is broken twilight. It won't even speak right."
"Screw you too Skittles..." I grumble and cross my arms, I took offense to that. I was used to taking flack but I draw the line at being insulted by a flying gay pride banner and being called someone's “toy".
"Fuck you, you pink-skin mokey. Grow some fur on your bald ass." Rainbow was no stranger to having to make comebacks and she wasn't going to let a hairless fuckcolt nab her like that. Her teeth grit, her fist clench like she would sock me in the face.
"Oh you wanna fight bitch? Because I'm not stranger to slapping snarky ass hoes, who act like their high and mighty. You know we HUMANS BREAK horses where I'm from." I poke her chest with annoyed snarl. It felt good to knock someone or well...somePONY off their high horse. Especially if that somepony an overconfident, hot headed, bitch.
The response from the Pegasus came quick, a backhanded slap right across my face. It had enough force to even make Tirek go crying to his mother. If there is one thing I should have known; don't try and call an athlete out for a fight.
My head snapped to the left, reaching up I grab my jaw and snap my head back. Now I was angry, I spit onto the floor. "Nice hit. My turn." I lept into the air and performed a spinning kick to the side of the head with a loud CRACK. She might have known karate but I knew many martial arts skills from my time back on earth. She fell to the floor with a loud thud.
Twilight wasn't going to stand for it and simply grasped ahold of both of us via telekinesis, parking both their asses onto a chair at each end of the table. The strong magic field pinning us both in place. Dash squirmed and and was screaming at me. “LET ME AT EM!! I'll make you eat those words you bucking bastard!!!” She roared.
I had a bruise on my left cheek while RD had a thin trail of blood down the side of her head. " Strike a nerve Skittles?" I say snarkily with a small grin. Twilight's magic field seemed to slap me and I grunt, deciding that it would be best to keep my mouth shut.
"The both of you are acting like foals fighting when there is no need to fight." Twilight sat herself in the middle of the table. She didn't let us go however, still holding us down with her magic.
I roll my eyes and look away, Twilight's magic field felt like a thin invisible layer was surrounding my whole body. 'This feels so weird...' I thought as I pulled against it "Hmph..."
"Dash, just go home...if you tell anyone about this; I'm giving Scootaloo a pair of working wings so she can follow you everywhere." Rainbow wasn't exactly happy about that, but it was a valid threat as she was always being pestered by the little filly.
"Ugh...fine, you win this time APE" Rainbow crosses her arms when Twilight freed her from the magic bindings. She used the table cloth to whipe away some of the blood.
"Can you let me go now? I promise I won't turn blue bi-buddy over there into a pony and cheese sandwich." I put on a rather strained smile.
"I'll let you go when Dash has left. Dash...get out of here." She was out of the room in seconds, knowing Twilight meant business one time she said she would cancel the Thuderdrone (android Wonderbolts) show at the next Summer Sun Celebration and she sure as hell did it. It took Rainbow 2 days of scrubbing the castle toilets to convince her to reconsider.
"What a LOVELY friend you have there Sparkle." I roll my eyes, my voice dripping with sarcasm. Despite Dash literally bitch slapping me I held a new respect for her, it took some balls to insult someone minutes after they just met. “Are all your friends assholes?”
"Only a few.....Don’t take Rainbow Dash’s insults too hard...she is the most loyal person you'll ever meet" Twilight sighed as she stood up from the table. "Now….where were we?” Not wanting to go back to the weird ear scratches I thought of my response fast.
"Hmph...well it's your turn to ask a question..." I walk to the fridge and grab a small bag of ice from the fridge. Pressing it against my swollen and bruised cheek. ' Damn it this fucking stings...' I sat back down at the table. Keeping the ice against the bruise.
"What do you actually eat?" It was a solid question, after all she needed to get a better understanding of humans, why not start with diet? The question made me freeze, contemplating on a response.
Opening my mouth and with one finger I point to my canines. "We humans are Omnivores...we eat fruits, veggies, nuts, AND.....meat..." To ponies it was the most taboo thing to eat meat. Save for fish which actually help Pegasi fly.
I could see how repulsed Twilight was, and she was quick to tell him how it was in Equestria. "You see...here, it's heavily frowned upon to eat meat...can you live without it?” I bite the inside of my cheek and mentally curse.
"Yeah...passed as a law roughly 20 years ago after a bunch of Pegasi abducted and ate a cow...no one can eat unregistered meat. Gryphons eat meat but they hunt hydra and other monsters.” Twilight was secretly recording our conversation on her phone that was in her pocket.
"Jesus....that's gross...I'm guessing cows are sentient here?" I ask, recoiling at the thought of a pony eating meat. I once again drummed my fingers on the table. This world was so confusing and made my head hurt. Looking into Twilight's eyes I looked mildly interested
"Cows are sentient yes...you alright there? You look like you've got something bothering you?" Twilight looked into my eyes with such care. She may have only known me for a day but she couldn't help but feel attracted to him.
"It's just so hard to wrap my head around this new world. Talking ponies and cows? What's next!? Centaure? Talking cockroaches? DRAGONS?! This all SHOULDN'T be real for me, it's seriously fucking with my head. Like....overloading it....like....like..." I take a deep breath and cut myself off before I could continue my rant.
"You need to slow down, take it one step at a time. Take all the time you need I'll listen." Twilight leaned eagerly against the table. Waiting for my next words.
"I'm only human.........not some fancy unicorn with magic...not some fast lightning bolt Pegasus...not some...strong PONY! I'm weak...small in a world of creatures who could fuck me up without so much as breaking a sweat...." I place both hands on my head and rest it on the table. This world wasn't meant for me, I could never fit in. For all I knew I could be killed tomorrow and displayed in some museum like I'm the fucking big foot.
Twilight knew she had to comfort me in one way or another. "Come on, you're scared...you're acting irrational." She pulled up a chair beside me and offered a hug as a gesture of kindness.
"Ok...I-I’m ok..." I sniffle and hug the purple pony back. The truth was that I was scared....so so scared. "What am I gonna do
Twilight....I-I just wanna go home....I wanna see my family...or let them know I'm safe..." I wipe away the tears that were slowly making their way down my cheeks.
"To be brutally honest...I'm pretty scared of you, you almost destroyed my entire lab...although you don't remember that do you?" Twilight was telling the truth. She was just as scared, possibly more scared as than I was.
"What? Destroy your lab? No...no I don't remember that....What happened?" I ask interested. Pulling from the hug I look into her eyes, waiting for a response. When I did overload myself with magic it left my memories on lockdown.
"You see...you said a minute ago that you didn't have any magic; yet when I initially brought you in you had effectively overloaded and almost tore the lab and the foundations of this castle to shreds..." Twilight explained quickly and more seriously.
"No Twilight I don't use magic of any kind. It must have been a fluke or something...I mean it would be cool to have magic. Like some kind of fantasy movie. Sorry about the apparent "magic overload" but probably it was a one time thing. Smiling I gave her a quick scratch behind the ears. "Likely won't happen again...."
Twilight stopped me before I could reach behind her ear. "You stay here, I'll be back in a minute." She got off the chair and galloped down to her lab. Returning a couple minutes later with some equipment. Twilight laid it out on the table; it seemed to consist of a small metal cube, a light, and a weird antenna thing.
"Uhhh....what the heck is that thing and what are you gonna do with it?" I ask cautiously and scoot back in my chair. The sudden thought of being sliced open by my new friend occurred to me. I shook the nasty thought away and payed close attention. 'She wouldn't do that....would she?' While I was deep in thought twilight had time to set up her neat little invention.
"Right so what I'm going to do...basically I'm going to try and channel the magic energy from you into this; if you're a dud nothing will happen. If there traces they'll be enough to power the light, but~, of you are active, you'll cost me a new light." Twilight spoke as she prepared the equipment to begin the test.
"Oh um...ok..." When the test began the light slowly and gradually began to glow. When I suddenly twitched my fingers there was a loud pop and the bulb exploded, momentarily blinding me. "GAH!!!" I just about nearly fell off my chair from the small, magic induced, explosion from the small bulb.
Twilight shielded me from the shards of broken glass. She even jumped herself as it happened although she expected it. "Woah! ...you now owe me a new bulb..."
"Erm....I don't have any cash....." I blush embarrassed and look away. I didn't even know what their currency was here. "Ok...so I'm a walking, talking, lightbulb assassin?" I raise and brow.
"Don't worry about buying me another bulb, I can cover it myself...and you've got a lot more lights to destroy before you get that title." She giggled as she cleared the equipment from the table and set them on the kitchen counter.
"So now what Sparkle? I'm all settled in....I don't have any more questions right now...soooo?" I shrug not sure what to do now that we finished our little science experiment. I stood up and poured myself some water which I gulped down. " You can ask me whatever I guess...I'm down for anything! Heh…” I felt beads of sweat trailed down my forehead. ‘why is it so fucking hot?’ The smell affected Twilight, as well as her judgment. I couldn't see it but she had lust on the brain.
"You're up for anything eh~? How about we...have a little fun?" Twilight's tone turned suggestive. She never really got laid before, so getting laid with a human would be something else entirely.
"Uhhh sure! Got any board games?" I ask, completely clueless to what she was hinting at. I was a virgin despite my rather attractive looks. In school all the girls would hit on me but I would just keep ignoring them. "Don't know if you got cards in this world..." I chuckle.
Twilight knew her message wasn't getting across, she'd have to show him herself. Her hand reached down and took a small coin out of her pocket, she tossed it across the table in hopes of distracting me. While I was distracted she unbuttoned her shirt, revealing the lack of bra underneath, before whistling to regain my attention. "So I'll say it again...you wanna have some fun~?"
When I turned my head back I saw her rather large tits. For a moment I thought some blood trickled down from my nose. "U-u-uh...didn't we j-just meet each other?!" My cheeks burned with a blush. I sweat more and by now Twilight was almost overwhelmed by my scent.
"So what? Who cares?" Twilight said as she leaned across the table. "It's a one time opportunity; take it or leave it."
I look away half of me wanted to fuck her brains out, but my logical half said no. "I want....my first time to be special...with someone I love...you know?" I mumble. ‘What is getting into that mare?! It's like she is a whole different pony.’
"I'm starting to think you don't care about me, c'mon...I know what you thought about in the shower, I know you want to fuck me..." Twilight said as she took the rest of her shirt off; trying to lure me into it.
I shook my head my eyes looking for some reasonable way to escape. Sadly I found none, either take the chance....or flee....
'What am I gonna do?'
