My Little Pony From One World To Another And Back! by NickClash BCommander

The princesses, the guards, the Elements and the group of 8 humans were taken quite aback by what they had just heard! The party of 8 humans, especially, were the most disturbed by this news as they had thought and hoped that they had lost those Timber Wolves back in the woods! But if they really had followed them all the way to the strange, old-fashioned, intelligent, pony-inhabited town that they were at now, then some serious shit was gonna down!

The princesses quickly ordered one of the guards to leave them and gather some of the other guards outside and defend Ponyville from the deadly Timber Wolf pack! The guard wasted no time and ran out of the room, to the other guards outside and ordered them to go stop the Timber Wolves as fast as they all could!

The group of 8 humans didn't know what they should do now. They all had 2 options and both of them each had consequences. 1) They could help the ponies fight off the Timber Wolves and defend their town. 2) Or they could take advantage of this unexpected turn of events and try to escape from their captors while they're distracted and preoccupied with eliminating the Timber Wolf threat and restoring order and peace to their small and happy town.

If they chose option #1, they would be risking their own lives trying to stop and defeat the Timber Wolves, but by doing this, they might earn the trust and respect of the locals and maybe even the princesses at the same time. However, while the princesses, their guards and Twilight and her friends had seemed friendly when interrogating them, there was no guarantee that this would be enough to convince them all that they were no threat to them and that they would let them go.

On the other hand, if they went with option #2, they could wait for the right moment and then make a quick escape out of the hospital, out of Ponyville and head somewhere they could lay low until they figured out their next course of action and how they planned to find a way back home! Unfortunately, doing this would also cause the ponies to all mistrust them and before long, they would be on the run and considered wanted fugitives! They could only imagine seeing wanted posters of them wherever they went and with them being hunted down by Equestria's local authorities and any bounty hunters that came after them and being seen as criminals and having to be on the run for years, if not the rest of their lives, didn't sound that very appealing to them either!

While their first option seemed like a wiser choice, they all knew that if the princesses, the guards and Twilight and her friends deemed them as even a minor threat to them and the other ponies, they would most likely be locked up or worse, get sent to some government lab like in the movies! But if they just escaped and ran, they would just be making themselves look even more dangerous and suspicious to the ponies then they already appeared to them! If that happened, they might as well kiss their freedom along with any chances of them ever returning back to their world with them!

'This is fucking crazy!' Tony thought. 'And I need a cigarette right now or I'm gonna lose it!"

"Oh, man!" Michael thought out loud. "What should we do!?"

All the ponies in the room, of course, heard Michael say this and they turned their attention back to him and the other 7 humans who they could all see looked very nervous, confused and worried. "What's the matter, you guys?" Twilight asked them. "And what did you mean when you just said, 'What should we do!?'"

Realizing his mistake, Michael mentally scolded himself for his stupidity as he quickly tried to think of what to say to Twilight. "Uh, nothing," Michael quickly lied as he was unable to think of a clever and convincing answer to give Twilight. "I-I just tend to say random things every now and then, that's all!"

Applejack, being the Element Of Honesty, immediately saw through Michael's lie and then spoke, "And why would you do that?"

"Well, it's...uh, simple really," Michael lied again as a bead of sweat began to pour down the side of his face. "It's-it's...uh...it's because I like to talk to myself!"

"Really? Is that so?" Rarity questioned as just like Applejack, she and the others weren't being fooled by Michael's terrible attempts to lie to them one bit.

"Oh, yeah! I love to talk to myself!" Michael once again fibbed. "Everyday, I deal with a lot of stress and anxiety and talking to myself and using my imagination is a healthy and non-violent way that helps me deal with it! My schoolwork, family, friends and chores usually keeps me very busy and I don't have the time or money to see a counselor or a psychiatrist, so talking to myself and using my imagination is the next best thing that I can do instead!"

"For me, it's smoking a nice, good cigarette, drinking a tall glass of beer and watching MTV!" Tony chimed in. "Now, can I have a stinkin' cigarette already because I've never gone this long before without one!"

"Tony, this isn't the time for this! You can have a cigarette later, but right now, we have bigger problems to deal with and-" Gary scolded him, but was interrupted.

"What are you, my mom?" Tony told Gary rudely. "I don't give a crap about all this lame chit-chat and this stupid nuthouse that we're all in!"

All the ponies didn't find Tony's bad attitude very funny and between Tony and Michael's lying, they were beginning to wonder if they could trust the 8 humans or not. Rainbow Dash, however, strangely found Tony's rude demeanor and way of speaking somewhat interesting and since Rainbow wasn't one for long, boring and well-detailed conversations herself, the rainbow-maned, blue, Pegasus pony felt like she could really relate to him.

"I know, right?" Rainbow Dash agreed with Tony. "With everypony, it's always talk, talk, talk!"

"Same here, uh... you're name's Rainbow Dash, right?" Tony asked Rainbow, who nodded her head. "Well, Ms. Dash, if you think you hate listening to all this dribble, this is nothing compared to what I have to put up with back home! I get a headache just listening to all my college teachers giving all their boring lectures every week! Arrgh! Just thinking about it makes me wish that they would all just shut up!"

"Hahaha! I know what you mean, brother! There's way too much talking going on and not nearly enough action and excitement going on either!" Rainbow Dash smiled. "You're a cool guy! I like that!"

"Well, you're not too bad yourself! If only I knew more people like you back home, then maybe my life wouldn't be so boring and frustrating, but that's nothing a little beer and a few cigarettes can't cure!" Tony replied.

"Ahem!" Twilight interrupted. "I know you two are having a moment, but need I remind you that Ponyville is currently being attacked by Timber Wolves and neither you Michael or your friends have answered our questions about what is bothering you!"

"I already told you!" Michael said. "I was just talking to myself and using my imagination!"

"You can go ahead and drop the act, sugarcube!" Applejack revealed. "I know you're lying! We all do! Plus, you aren't doing a very good job lying so it's easy to see that you're clearly lying through your teeth! If you're gonna lie to us, then at least put some effort into it!"

"What are you talking about? I'm not-" Michael tried to lie again in vain, only to be cutoff.

"There's no point in trying to lie to us, Michael! Applejack is the Element Of Honesty and you cannot lie to her without her seeing through you and your deceit anymore than you can go back and prevent what has happened today!" Celestia explained. "Lying and dodging questions won't get you anywhere here so you might as well come clean and say whatever it is you have on your mind!"

"Yes, Michael! Whatever you're worried about, you can tell us, but whatever you have to say, make it quick! Timber Wolves are attacking the town and the longer we stay here, the more ponies are gonna get hurt!" Twilight chimed in. "No more lies! Just explain what's bugging you and your friends and I Pinkie Promise that we will hear you out!"

"If I do that, will you promise to let us go?" Michael asked.

"That's up to me and my sister to decide," Princess Celestia spoke. "We can't make any promises that we'll do that right away, but the sooner we get everything sorted out, the sooner you can all be on your way! I swear!"

Realizing that lying was useless and that the lives of innocent ponies were at stake with every passing second, Michael sighed in defeat and spoke, "Alright! I'll talk!"

"Remember when Ned said that we're from another world, which technically makes us aliens?" Michael continued as he saw the princesses, the guards and the Elements nodding their heads while listening to him. "Well, think about it! We're on another world where we're the only humans! By now, I'm sure that our presence alone has shaken up your peaceful town and its citizens!"

"Well, yes, but crazy stuff happens here in Ponyville a lot, anyway, so I don't see what's the big deal," Rainbow Dash said.

"We're beings from another world that no one on this planet has seen or heard of before! It's a very big deal!" John replied.

"What are you trying to say?" Rarity asked.

"Look! Imagine what would happen if any of you ended up on our world and were seen by all the humans there!" Claire explained. "They would all freak out!"

"You mean just like we and everypony else did when you first arrived!" Princess Luna asked.

"Yes, but it would be much worse!" Alice replied.

"What do you mean?" Twilight demanded.

"Oh, for pete's sakes!" Michael facepalmed as he yelled. "On our world, everyone would panic, then they would call the police and the government would capture all of you and send you to be studied and subjected to countless tests and experiments where you would be miserable and locked up cold, dark and empty cells for the rest of your lives!"

"What!?" everypony in the room shouted together in shock and horror upon hearing this.

"You heard me, right!" Michael spoke.

"But-but why?" Fluttershy asked in a very shaky and nervous voice. "We-we would never attack anyone, unless they-they attacked and hurt us first, that is!"

"While that may be true, fear is a very powerful and dangerous thing!" Ned explained. "It wouldn't matter if you're friendly or hostile because when you're a new and alien species from another world, people are always gonna be afraid! People fear what they don't know and understand! That's just how it is!"

"But--" Rarity tried to say, but was cutoff.

"No buts!" John stopped Rarity. "On our world, no matter how friendly you appeared to be or what your intentions are, you would be feared by many and caught by the government who would lock you up and run countless tests and experiments on you with or without your consent and against you will for the rest of your days period!"

"Still, I don't see what any of that has to do with-" Twilight admitted, but was interrupted.

"Now, imagine that kind of scenario, only with it happening to us with you on this world instead!" Michael instructed.

"I don't know what that would be like! I'm sure that nothing like that would ever-" Twilight was saying, but stopped herself as realization struck her, her friends, the guards and the princesses all at the same time. "Oh!"

Princess Celestia quickly regained her composure and facing the group of 8 humans, she said, "Okay. You have a point. We all understand now why you've been so nervous around us, but I promise you that that is not our intent and that we imprison nopony in Equestria unless he/she has committed any crimes first!"

"But the other ponies of Ponyville still fear us so how will they react when they see us out and about again, walking down the streets of this town?" Gary asked.

"Then, we'll just have to show them that they have nothing to fear," Twilight announced. "Just like how we showed Ponyville that our zebra friend, Zecora, who lives in the Everfree Forest, was nopony to be afraid of and neither should you be!"

"Right," Michael replied, making a mental note in his head to ask Twilight more about this Zecora character and the Everfree Forest whenever he got a chance to do so.

"Wait! Did you just say that Zecora is a zebra?" Eddie asked in a excited voice. "I love zebras! Their black and white stripes are awesome!"

"Can Zecora talk, too, just like you can?" Eddie continued.

"Of course, she can!" Twilight answered. "All Zebras on Equis can talk!"

"Hold on! You mean ponies aren't the single dominant species on this planet!? You mean there are other intelligent and dominant beings like yourselves that you share Equis with!?" Ned demanded.

"Why, yes! There's us, ponies, zebras, buffalos, minotaurs, griffins and dragons just to name a few!" Twilight stated.

"MINOTAURS! GRIFFINS! DRAGONS!" John exclaimed in shock and amazement.

"Yep! But if I were you, I would stay away from the griffins and dragons, especially the dragons! The dragons are by no means friendly and they won't hesitate to roast or slaughter anypony that gets on their bad side!" Twilight replied.

"Are all dragons like that?" Gary asked.

"No. Not all of them. In fact, I have my own personal dragon assistant, Spike, and he's a real nice guy who's always happy to lend a hoof whenever me and my friends need him!" Twilight revealed.

"No way!" Eddie spoke excitedly. "I have to meet him! I've always wanted to see a real dragon!"

"Sorry to interrupt, but that will have to wait till later! Now, that you've answered our questions, it's time we deal with our current problem, which is stopping the Timber Wolves before they can cause any more harm and chaos than they already have!" Princess Celestia announced. "Everypony, come with us! It's time to get rid of the Timber Wolves and restore peace and safety to all the ponies of Ponyville!"

Princess Luna turned to face the group of 8 humans and spoke, "That means you, too!"

"But what about the other ponies, Princess! Won't they panic even more when they see us again!" John reminded Princess Luna.

"Well, if thou helps us eliminate the Timber Wolf threat, the ponies of Ponyville will be most grateful to you!" Princess Luna replied. "If thou wishes to gain their trust and respect, this would be thou's chance to do so!"

"You got me there!" John answered as he and his friends grabbed all their backpacks and other belongings and followed the princesses, the guards and the Elements out of the room and the hospital and out onto the deserted streets outside.

As the group of 8 humans followed the ponies, Gary thought, 'This place just gets crazier and crazier! What have we gotten ourselves into!?'
