I singed to avoid thinking about the situation in which I was currently. "Would you please shut up?" a statue asked."You already sang that song like a billion times! And I mean literally!" he stated. "You know, I never thougt that I could make the god of chaos mad by simply singing a parody of a child's song" I replied. "The problem is that you sing bad on purpose!" he answered. "Trust me, it has a purpose that in the end will benefit both of us" I said as I saw a group of fillies and colts directing towards our location,"speaking of it, it is about to be fullfilled by those students" I finished. "What are you talking about?" he asked. "Just watch, Discord" I replied. He simply didn't respond, so I assumed that he understood and he was preparing for whatever was going to to happen. Due to me watching My little pony I knew perfectly what was going to happen. Even if this was an anthro version of equestria. After Cherelee gave the lesson to the students about Discord and His regin and after she punished the CMC for discussing, one of them did THE question. The one that reminded me that I wasn't in a cannon universe. "Who is that pony, miss Cherelee?" Scootaloo asked pointing towards me. "That is not a pony scootaloo, is a creature that is called a human" she said. "Not much is known about him, exept that he commited many crimes against equestria" she added. "hey, that sounded like I was a traitor" I Complained internally. "Also it is believed that he was the first creature ever to have a car in equestria" she also said. "Wait, how do they know about about cars?" I asked myself. After listening to what celestia seems to teach about me and moving on to whatever place they had to, I noticed that the statue of discord started to tear apart until he finally surged from the stone. "It feels good to finally strech after being in the same position for at least a thousand years" he claimed. "And now for helping you to gain power you will free me as well, because if not the next time I will sing even worse" I said mentally, knowing that he could hear me. He simply rolled his eyes, and with the snap of his claw I fell free in the grass. "Now you are free. Do whatever you need to do, because now I have some chaos to cause" he said as he popped out of existence into who knows. I got up from the floor and I went to a nearby fountain to look at myself. Black t-shirt? Check. Blue jeans? Check. Shoes? Check. After checking I had all my clothes I hid in some bushes. I took everything from my pockets and verified that I had my smartphone, my keys, my wallet and most importantly, the controller to unlock the doors of my most inportant car. The Koenigsegg one:1. Being the only megacar in the entire world, only seven were produced by the company. And I had one. Anyways, I checked on my void smartphone the location of my nearest car. It seems like this happens to all the displaced, because my totally op car happened to be the nearest one. Can you guess where did the gps pointed to? Correct! Into the castle! "Ok, so i think that I will have to wait until Celestia notices that discord went missing so that she dispatches some guards to 'defend' the city. Then I am going to sneak in through secondary hallways to avoid being detected. Probably when I reach the place where it is it will be heavily guarded with magical spells to detect any thief, but I still have that virus that according to that displaced Aiden it should work to deactivate even the strongest spells. If it does, I shall make sure to thank him for the virus the next time I see him. When I get the car MAYBE , JUST MAYBE I will let her know that I am back, somehow." After making that plan I waited to obious signs of discord that Celestia would notice. When I saw chocolate milk raining I started moving. I reached the wall of the castle and started looking for an open window. I found one that was low enough and climbed into the castle. Luckily there wasn't any staff right there so I had time to hide behind the nearest pillar and start sneaking nearer and nearer to my precious car. At least I had to hide from 2 patrols, but apart from that the journey to my car was uneventful. As I expected when I arrived, There was a massive vault door where my car could fit in. "It's time for the truth" I said as I opened the development software and transfered the virus to the vault door through wireless connection. As he promised, the door opened without any more complications and there I saw the object from which Celestia separated me for a long time. My one:1. I reached my pocket and used the controller to unlock the doors. "Seems like the car parts that I bought from that void guy last for a really long time" I said to nobody to particular when I saw that electronics seemed to work. I opened the driver's door and I proceeded to enter the car and close the door again. After putting on the racing harness, I went to activate the gps. "Ok google" I said." Open maps and place the following waypoints: throne room, main castle entrance and nearest canterlot entrance". "Waypoints established" the phone replied. Without further ado, I started the engine. ---------< "Thank you twilight for saving Equestria once again" Celestia said as she congratulated her student and the elements. As she prepared to say the next thing a guard busted in. "Princess! The statue that was next to discord is no longer there! He is possibly free!" It took her some seconds, but she realized what pony, or in this case, person, was missing. "Tell the guards to check the vault and..." Too late. As she was saying that she heard that something was coming towards the castle. The next thing she knew, a luxury car busted into the throne room and started making some drifting donuts until it stopped facing the recently destroyed door. The window of the car lowered and the pony inside looked at Celestia and the elements. "Did you miss me Celly?" He said. "Zephyr" she only managed to say before he closed the window and started screeching the tires until he launched himself, leaving confused looks and two fire strips. "Make all the royal guard units to stop him at any costs" she finally managed to say to the confused guards. ---------< After personally confronting the princess ( which was a strategically dumb move by the way) I made my way to the main entrance after making my car jump through some stairs. "Waypoint reached" the phone said. I looked at the last waypoint and I saw that at least I had to drive 3 kilometers to exit the city. "To all the units, we have a code 1 in progress. The suspect is driving an unknown car, license plate charlie five uniform charlie kilo five" a female voice in my radio said. "Since when does the royal guard have radio?" I asked myself. I only got more questions when I heard a very earthly sound. The siren of a cop. "Stop right there!" A guard shouted. Of course, instead of halting the vehicle I floored the gas and I activated the nitro I gained from the donuts I did in front of Celestia. ... Yeah, video game logic. Anyways, that meant that Celestia gave the order to pursue me to all the royal guards in canterlot and right now I was possibly the most wanted racer in Equestria. ---------< "A pursuit right now? Are you sure?" "Yes. We heard of it in the royal guard radio." "Ok, we will take the helicopter right there." "This is going to be on all first pages." ---------< I look at my side and I see on the sky a helicopter. "I wonder how much time has passed since I was imprisoned" I thought. "Ok google, which year is now In Equestria?" "This is the year 1002 After the banishment of the princess luna of equestria" It said. "150 years, not bad" I said to the air as I thought of the guys that were imprisoned for at least one thousand years. That would be insufferable. As I evaded another blockage from the royal guard I saw that now I had only 1 kilometer left until the exit. I tuned the car radio to see if there was any other frequency, and I was plesantly surprised when I found a radio station. "Breaking news: an unknown pony just busted out from the canterlot castle and right now it seems to be heading to the outside of the city. Stay tuned for more information." "Well, it seems that right now I am all over the news" I said as I saw that 500 meters ahead they were lifting the bridge in a desesperate attempt to stop me. "No you don't" I shouted as I activated the nitro once more and I prepared for the upcoming jump. As I lifted in the air I looked how all the cops started to break fearing the jump of the bridge. All except one. The cop jumped behind me and also landed behind me. I took a closer look at the car that was chasing me and, when I realized which car was, I could only think of one word. Shit. Author's Note Here is the first chapter. If you find any typos, spanglish and errors in general please coment below. More op cars, downhill battle and eurobeatSo, I told you what I thought, but nothing about the car that was chasing me. It was another Koenigsegg. But not any Koenigsegg. It was a fucking Agera rs. I may have a megacar, but the Agera is fucking fast. So fast that before being displaced it was the fastest accelerating car in the world. Althrough It can't go faster than mine. But It didn't matter, because we were in a mountain pass going downhill. Wait. Mountain pass going downhill. Do you know what time it is? IT'S EUROBEAT TIME! As the eurobeat kicked in, I remembered that I was being chased by the agera, so I started with the evasive maneuvers. I saw that ahead there was a sharp turn, so I slowed down a bit to take that turn with a drift. I thougt that with the trick I would get further from the cop, but I was in for a surprise, as the cop also drifted along the turn. "heh, so I suposse that I surprised you, huh?" a voice in the radio transmitter said. "Not bad, but that was just a warm up" I replied through the transmitter. "who are you, by the way?" he asked. "I shouldn't tell you as I am a fugitve, but since Celestia knows me I am going to tell you. you can call me Zephyr" I said as we took a second turn. "So Zephyr as in need for speed rivals?" he asked. "Yes, as in- WAIT, WHAT?" I managed to say. "Well, I am going to assume that you are a human as well" he said."since you are Zephyr I think that you can call me fate" F-8 concluded as both of us took a third turn. I chuckled at the reference. "Anyways, I think it's time I get away from you. Being more time in stone is not my idea of fun" I ended stating. After that small exchange I Acelerated after exiting a new turn, and I activated the nitro I gained by drifting in the corners. Only to see him do the same. "So you thought you could get away from me so easily? I heard him say. I was starting to get pissed off, but I remembered one of the most important rules when driving: do not let emotions drive you. I took a deep breath and I focused In the road. "Ok google, how much until the end of the mountain pass?" I asked. "The map indicates 10 kilometers" it replied. "Good. So now I must find something I can use to break the pursuit" I said aloud accidentally. Good thing I did, because I got an answer. "The nearest pursuit breaker is at 5 kilometers" the phone said. "Since when the phone could tell me these things?" I asked myself. ---------< After attacking another corner I took a look at the map, and I saw something that would at least make me gain more distance from him and make the pursuit breaker effective, but it could be a bit dangerous. Right ahead there was a light right turn, followed by a sharp left turn, so I could start drifting in the right turn for then using the weight of my car to change the attacking side and exit the sharp corner at a higher speed. Basically a Scandinavian flick, better known by the internet community as 'NANI!?KANSEI DORIFTO!?' or simply inertia drift. I may have learned the technique from a T.V show, but as my mother used to say, 'reality beats fiction', so impossible, it was not. But it seems that destiny wanted to make it difficult, because right ahead I saw some cars going in the opposite way, so when I oversteer I would have to press the gas harder to avoid crossing the yellow line. As I aproached the right turn, I prepared mentally for the maneuver I was about to perform, and when I reached the beginning of the turn, I gently oversteered the car being careful at the same time that the car stayed in the line, and I saw the cars passing next to me centimeters away. When I was about to exit the turn to enter the sharp one, I violently countersteered being careful of not hitting the railing of the turn, and I managed to do the drift missing the railing by at least 5 centimeters. When I exited the drift I saw that F-8 did the drift at a much slower speed, giving me more distance as I activated the nitro. "Pursuit breaker at 1 kilometer" the phone announced. I started looking for it and, after advancing some meters, I saw it: a green sign indicating that the pass ended at 5 kilometers and other distances. The pillar that supported the sign was near the edge of the asphalt, so I thought of using the rear of the car in a 'deer evasion' scenario to hit it. I alligned myself with the sign, and when I was like 100 meters away, I mentally prepared and started drifting, and when I hitted the sign, time seemed to slow down as I corrected my course that was altered by the hit. Seems like F-8 saw what I did, because he instantly started breaking as he saw the sign falling, meaning that I managed to block the road and end the pursuit. "This is not over!" I heard him shout in the transmitter. He was right, my escape was only the first of many. "Yes!" I shouted, celebrating my sucsessful escape. "Breaking news: the canterlot fugitive managed to escape the forces of law and order after an intense pusuit. The recordings show that he managed to stop the last enforcer after destroying a sign. Stay tuned for more information." "Wow, that was fast" I said to myself. After getting further from the pursuit end and reaching a highway that would take me to Ponyville, I decided to stop for a little bit and let everyone know that I was back. I put my transmitter to all the frequencies and I said: "I am the one that defies rules. I am the nightmare of a cop. I am the enemy of the corrupt ones, for I AM ZEPHYR." With that, I launched myself towards the everfree, as I thought of how all of this happened. Author's Note Second chapter in one day! Next time we wil know more about Zephyr and who really is. The other side of the coin"I am the one that defies rules. I am the nightmare of a cop. I am the enemy of the corrupt ones, for I AM ZEPHYR." Click. "...the misterious fugitive identified as..." Click. "...racers in the online community recieved with euphoria who is known as the first racer..." Click. "...Zephyr's pursuit is right now the trending topic in all media..." Click. "... ponies expect the government to give answers soon..." Click. The sound of changing channels in the television of one of the many sitting rooms distributed throughout the castle could be heard by the ponies that were watching it, which right on this moment were the elements and the two royal sisters, and they couldn't believe that despite all the efforts of the royal guard, this apparently simple guy managed to escape a code 1, the maximum priority given to a fugitive suspect ever. Then, after some moments, Twilight did the questions. "Princess, who is Zephyr? I had never read about him. And how some ponies knew about him?" Celestia stood there thinking how to answer the question, until she decided to say it all. "Well twilight, I think it will be better If I start from the beggining..." ---------< (152 years ago) Celestia has been worried for the safety of her little ponies at least for six months now, as she had been recieving reports of a strange metal carriage that visited the towns near to the everfree and was scaring some of the inhabitants, so she sent an order to capture the carriage and the creature behind it. She was in the middle of another court day, listening to the ~~fucking~~ nobles and their complains, when a random royal guard busted in the throne room. "Princess! The carriage and the creature are in the entrance! And he is asking for an audience!" "He?" she thought for a moment before ordering to let the creature pass and cancelling all the appointments with the rest of the nobles, and then she proceeded to wait. Finally, the doors opened, and a tall creature of almost the same height of the princess appeared escorted by four guards, wearing a simple white shirt and blue trousers of an unknown material. After the guards were dimissed, the creature spoke. "So, you wanted something from me?" He simply asked. It seemed that the creature didn't knew her, because he was speaking in such a relaxed way, so she decided to present herself. "I am..." "Princess Celestia of equestria, raiser of the sun and for the moment of the moon, and bla, bla, bla. Of course I know you" he said after interrupting her. "I am Zephyr, nice to meet you" he said before she could react as he extended his hand. She also extended her hand and suddenly she found it being grabbed by his hand and being shaked. She supossed that it was some sort of greeting so she simply tagged along with it. After recovering from that experience she did the obious question. "What are thou Zephir?" ---------< The elements couldn't believe it. Zephyr knew her and even though he treated her as an equal, even if she was far more powerful than him. "After the introductions he proceeded to explain me that he was from a race known as the humans, and told me about him and the humans in general, at first I was worried about the wars they had, but after I told him about our story, he made good points on how we were not so different, exept for magic." "How?" Twilight asked. "He told me about how they lacked any magic, refering to it as an 'excuse to explain complex things', and how they compensated all of that with only technology to the extent of being able to travel long distances and landing in the moon and coming back." Twilight was surprised. She knew that reaching the moon with any magic that wasn't the elements or alicorn magic it was impossible, but according to her mentor these humans did it with no magic at all. "Actually, if it wasn't for all the technology he showed and told me about we would still be in the same era as 150 years ago" she concluded. "But princess, why did you had to imprison him? He seemed like a cool guy" Rainbow Dash asked. "It happened that the way he drived, as you could see, It was very dangerous and in various situations he almost injured some ponies while performing his tricks with the car, so I warned him and told him to stop doing it, but he disobeyed and I emmited an arrest order against him, but he simply escaped without us knowing where he went. We never knew where was his home, as he never told us. Finally, one day we setted a trap to flat the tyres of the car, and when he got out I shot at him a stone spell, turning him in stone. I decided to keep the car in the royal vault, and I placed the statue in the garden." "You did well, racers don't stop until it is too late, princess" a male voice added. Everyone turned to see another human, but this one had a blue police officer uniform and it seemed that he has been hearing for a long time. "Officer Destiny" she said to the newcomer, "I heard that you were close to arresting him, don't you?" "Yes princess, but I came to tell you something in private, if you don't mind". "Of course" she said as she politely asked everybody present to retire."So, what did you wanted to tell me?" "It's about Zephyr. I think I know why he acted like that before being imprisoned". ---------< Meanwhile, somewhere else near ponyville, a certain Koenigsegg was driving towards the everfree in the highway 42 west, as he listened to the radio stations and what he learned on it was worth it. "So they now have internet, huh? Well, when I arrive home I shall share my awesome comeback in the social media, just like the real Zephyr would do" he said as he took an exit near to the everfree and started his offroad journey towards his place. His home. Author's Note Possibly worst chapter up to now, using an excuse that can almost be compared to johnny wick. But I want to move on and get as soon as possible to the main plot. Until then, see you soon. Home sweet home and void stuffAfter going through the forest for a couple of kilometers, I finally managed to reach my home, which in only 2 years has suffered many changes, althrough they are not visible from outside, because I was going underground. I reached the garage door and I used my phone to open it, and I was greeted by a ramp that took me to an underground garage. After reaching the bottom I parked my car in one of the various parking spots I had, and if you thought that I only had one car, then you are for a surprise, because I actually had more than one. First, I had a Tesla model S, an electric car that looked as a regular car, so If I wanted to enter a city for any reason in incognito, this was a good car to use. Thanks to it's fixed gear, I can accelerate really fast to the 100 kilometers, and with a top speed of a bit more than 200 kilometers per hour it was a car that was also suitable for racing. Second in the list I had a Subaru Impereza Wrx Sti, and this was the first car I used to practice the manual transmission. When I managed to dominate it, It became the second most used car by me, as in the void they really like quarter mile (400 meters) drag races with manual transmission, making the art of shifting gears a determinant skill to win those races. I also had the Pagani Zonda R, which had a special space in my heart because when I was only a child I managed to buy it in the phone version need for speed undercover, being the most expensive car in that game, and I remembered my exitement when I drove it for the first time. I used it in friendly regular races across the multiverse, in real earth circuits and also in fantasy ones, such as sector 8. Seriously, if you think of the track, it surely exists somewhere in the multiverse. Of course, when there was an interdimensional tournament I would use the Koenigsegg, so I could try to end in the best position and win good prizes for my position. I actually managed to be between the top 20 of one thousand in one of those competitions. After shutting down the engine I went to the door that led to the rest of my home, and when I opened it, I knew I would have to make some cleaning. I went to the service closet and took everything I needed to clean, and started with the tedious task. ---------< After what it seemed to be hours, my house turned from a dusty ruin into an (almost) brand new house. The four bedrooms of my family clean, the kitchen shined, the sitting room as new, toilets unclogged and the underground swimming pool with clean water. After so much effort, I decided to sleep like a rock. ---------< I woke up the next morning before the sun came up, and I decided to check on my interdimensional bank account, so I could see how many speedpoints I gained from the pursuit. When I first found out of the currency being speedpoints, I thought that it was a joke, but I learned later that due to racing being a dangerous carreer needed to balance harmony and chaos in the different universes and at the same time being a fun activity that you needed to be extremely lucky to be a racer, speedpoints were a really valuable currency, to the extreme of 1 speedpoint being the equivalent to 10 dollars. I opened the bank account and I found out that the recent pursuit that I had gave me 2000 speedpoints. That was above the usual, as I generally recieved less than a thousand speedpoints per task acomplished, but taking into account that the pursuit had a high impact on the media, I supposed that It was ok. I checked the total balance of my account and I found that I had in total more than three million points. That's right. Three. Million. I might be a millionarie, but for being a racer it was under average, but I didn't care that much, because it was more than enough for retiring for more than 10 years. But of course I wasn't going to retire, racing is life and I didn't intend to change it. After that I contacted the interdimensional property services, and I recontracted the water and electricity services, as they were cut off after I was imprisoned and I was running on the emergency reserves, which sooner or later would run out. Due to the void being the void, all the sevices were restablished as soon as I ended the call, I went to my good old computer to upload the pursuit I escaped. I connected my dashcam to the computer, I did some basic editing such as cutting off unnecessary parts and the video was ready. I opened a web browser and proceeded to create accounts in various sites, such as a video sharing site called MyVideo, which I supposed it was an equestrian version of Youtube. At least the site names did not have horse puns. While the video uploaded, I decided to check all the news webpages to get up to date. I first opened the canterlot times, and an aerial photo of my car escaping was the the first thing I saw. I did not expect that, as I was released at the same time as discord. I found out that the royal guard had a very clean record, and most of the pursuits ended with an arrest, so the media found it surprising that I managed to escape them, almost causing a crisis in the royal guard. I can't believe they are so intolerant to failing. Errors exist to learn from them, not to simply give up. Inspirational quotes apart, I found out that the street racers of equestria had a forum, and I read many comments on how exited they were that 'the first racer of equestria' was back, and that they were waiting for me to appear in one of their many nocturnal meetings to challenge me, so I decided to take the initiative, and I wrote an invitation: "Tomorrow at 9:00 pm, at the outskirts of ponyville. -Zephyr Ps: I will come in a different car." And at the same time that I sent the invitation, I got notified that the video finished uploading. This gonna be good. Author's Note I noticed that quality was decreasing, so now I am taking more time to write the chapters and keep up a good work. I will come with the next chapter soon, and we will know more about other characters. ReadySilverstreak started reading again the forum that had almost broken after that message, and he saw how all the community was going nuts over the possibility of meeting that pony, or in this case, human, that according to what his grandfathers said, was the very first creature to drive a 'self propelled carriage', as it was called back in that time, and he was not going to miss the opportunity. He wanted to personally see the human that racers almost idolized after his sucessful escape and return to the world of street racing. for him, he was a hero, not only because he used to be close to the family, but because he was the guy that gave hope to the racing community, the reason why the community became active once again. Many still remained skeptical of the authenticity of the message, but in general you could feel the euphoria in the chat, which it was about to be skyrocketed. Many in the forum started posting a link to certain video in MyVideo, but at first he decided to ignore it, until he got fed up with so many ponies posting it and he decided to open it. The first thing that he saw was the point of view from a car going at high speeds through canterlot while avoiding the royal guard. It also showed other external perspectives and you could also hear the radio communications of the royal guard. It took him some seconds, but when he saw who published the video, he knew why ponies were going crazy about the video. It was clear the message he wanted to transmit. Nopony in his right mind would dare to publish such stunt after escaping no more and no less than the princess of the sun. But with that video, he showed that if any calculator divided by the number of fucks he gives about the princess, the calculator would give error. Or at least the description of the video said that. It would be a matter of hours before the video reached all main media. Silverstreak decided to leave his computer and he went to check his car for tomorrow. ---------< Not many hours later in the Canterlot castle, the elements were preparing to leave the castle, and while they were waiting for the train while watching the tv, the news broke in most of the channels. "URGENT: Not many hours after his escape, the now most wanted criminal, Zephyr, has posted a video in which he shows his point of view while escaping from the forces of law and order yesterday. Also, unofficial sources say that he will meet racers tomorrow at night, at an unknown location near Ponyville. Stay tuned for more information. The reactions from the elements were mixed: Twilight was fuming of anger, Fluttershy and Rarity had looks of concern, Pinkie was eye wide and Applejack had a poker face. However, the most curious reaction was the one of Rainbow Dash. "That was awesome" she managed to say under her breath. "Did you say something, darling?" Rariry asked. "Ah, um, no?" Dash lied. It seemed like Applejack did not notice, because nothing else was said. Right now, the only thing she thought about was meeting that creature that Celestia catalogued as a 'threat', because apart of having a good set of skills to avoid the royal guard, he simply seemed inoffensive, and she was pretty sure that she could take him down alone. ---------< The royal sisters just finished watching the news, and Celestia was the first to speak. "We need to duplicate the reinforcements in ponyville Luna, he will be close and I do not want accidents happening..." "I think that we should not, sister. He might be testing us. From what I could see from him he could easily escape even when he is in disadvantage, so sending guards will only result in him gaining more influence over ponies, and you don't want that happening, don't you?" Celestia sighed."I think you have a point there, sister. I will tell the guards to not interfere in poniville tomorrow." "Wise decision, sister" Luna said before retiring to her chambers, thinking of the point she made. "YOU don't want that happening..." ---------< Ok, I had a good look at the different reactions of my video, and I found quite a strong support, which surprises me since what I did is ilegal, but it seems like they got quite a good entertainment, because my video was trending and I got at least half million views in such a short time, which is a large number considering that this world has way few creatures on it. Anyways, I need to see which car I am going to bring to the meeting, so I went to the garage. I instantly discarded the one:1 and the Zonda, since it would attract too many stares and I was not going to drive the one:1 as I said in the message. Then, the Tesla seemed too 'normal' and I wanted to save it for incognito, so I was finally left with the Subaru, which seemed as a good option as it looked more like a racing car, but yet it seemed as a regular street racing car. You know, even if I am a fast learner 150 years can oxide your skills, and shifting manually the gear is a bit complicated, so I thought that a little bit of practice before the event would be necessary, so I took the keys of the Subaru and I took the car to the nearest route. ---------< I did good on practising some gear shifting, because It took me dozens of attempts before I managed to shift the first gear without stalling. Also I practised some drifting and high speed turns with the Subaru to get used to the car, as I did not usually use it for other type of races rather than quarter miles, and I could say that now I was ready for the event tomorrow. It was almost night when I arrived home, and after parking I started recalling memories of the escape pursuit, more precisely when I was being chased by the Regera. And I thought of the conversation. Another human. And he is in the side of law. Since it seemed that technology has been around for quite a long time, I decided to make some research on his persona. I started by searching news about humans, and I saw that most of the articles dated from at least two years. And when I opened the first one and I saw the face of my rival, I froze. "It... it can't be possible" I managed to say. Author's Note Sorry for the very late update. I was organizing better my story so it makes more sense. SetI woke up the next morning with the sun already up, and it was on purpose, as I needed energy for the meeting today at night, so I was pleased that I could sleep so many hours. 'It can't be him' I thought again. Since last night I couldn't stop thinking about my rival. Which were the odds? It was more likely that I win the lottery rather than him appearing in the same Equestria I was. I decided to dimiss the thought and I decided to prepare a lunch before the event. ---------< After eating my lunch, I went to my Subaru and I took it to the mechanical section to check the condition of my car. I opened the front and I looked at the oil and coolant levels, and also I did a general inspection of the different parts there. Also I checked that the wheels were in optimal conditions to make sure I had a good grip for the race. As everything looked fine, I took the car back to the garage and now towards the exit. I parked the car In front of the main entrance and I made my way towards the sitting room in my home. I throwed myself in the couch and I entered youtube in my phone, in order to listen some music. Even if I had been impisoned for a century and a half singing the same songs over and over again, it never gets old, so I selected a song composed by Imagine dragons. Even If I had problems on singing the fast paced parts of the song, I simply conformed with singing the regular parts and the chorus, which personally, I think is the part that described me the best. After the song finished, I decided to play some games in my computer, but this time I aimed at something different to racing games. I selected a random game and I started to kill time. ---------< I was in the middle of a game of enter the gungeon when an alarm that I set 1 hour before the meeting went off, so I paused the game and I quickly grabbed some important stuff, such as the car keys and, since I was going to be with strangers, a taser. I bought it after I almost had an incident with another racer in a tournament, and since I am not good at hand combat, I bought it for self-defense. Ponies may have a record for being peaceful creatures, but since this was the underground world, I could not risk getting into a fight and be almost defenseless, so I had it as a safety measure, even if it would not work in pegasi due to their natural resistance. After double checking that I had everything I needed, I exited the house and I sat down in the car, ready for tonight's event. ---------< Right now I have been for 15 minutes in the route that circles ponyville, and I decided to slow down my pace as I already familiarized with the track I intended to use in the meeting. Also, I was looking for other cars, and I would try to overtake them. If they are racers, they will try to defend their position and speed up, thus starting a race. I was looking for my first victim when I saw behind me a black car, which it seemed to be similar to the one used by toretto in the fast and furious movies, but since I was not very informed on the models, I could not give a guess. Besides, this is equestria, a complete different place to earth, so cars should have different names. When it was closer to me, I accelerated my car to match his speed, and I saw it do the same, trying to overtake me. It confirmed that it was a racer when in a sharp curve the car drifted, so I decided to meet the racer. I turned on the intermitents as I slowed dowm my car at the side of the road. The other driver seemed to understand, because he also stopped at the left side of my car. I lowered my window as we stood in the darkness of the forest that surrounded the route. "So are you headed to the meeting don't you?" A male voice asked. "I was going to ask the same" I replied. "Do you know where it is? I still haven't found any place with many cars around" he asked. "I don't know, I have not chosen a place yet" I replied with a smile as I turned on the internal lights of my car. I should imagine that his brain was processing what was going on, but before he could react, I extended my hand through my window into his car. "I'm Zephyr, nice to meet you...?" "Silverstreak, Speedy Silverstreak" he managed to answer. Now it was time for me to be surprised, because the Silverstreak surname was very familiar to me. "Wait, do I know your family?"I asked. "My great grandfather, Sonic Silverstreak" he replied. My god, it hasn't been more than a few days and I am already meeting familiar faces. What a luck. "It is good to see that the Silverstreak family is alive, and that they are still interested in the motorsports" I answered. I remembered back to a century and a half, when the first pony became interested in my 'contraption'. At first he simply watched, but later he got interested on how it worked, and he started asking me questions, which I happily answered, as long as I knew how to. He even told me that he worked on replicating the engine before I started to be chased by the princess. "So, did he finally manage to introduce cars to the world, huh?" I asked curiously. "Technically, yes". "What do you mean?" "According to what he said, not many years after meeting you he managed to show a prototype that the royal guard took with all the other designs, and nothing is known about the destination of it. We tried to claim the authory of the first prototype, but since it was confiscated we do not have the evidence, officially the creator of the first car is a scientist that worked in one of the royal factories" he explained. "Anyways, any racer knows that you were the one that gave him the knowledge to build the first car, even if public documents show otherwise" he ended. At the same time, another car passed us driving dangerously at high speed, and with a nod we floored the gas of our cars and we started to follow the new car. ---------< We had been chasing the car for a good time now, and, unexpectedly, the new driver started to slow down in a straight and turned on the right intermitent, and we did the same. I saw an instant later a rather large group of cars parked, so that only meant one thing, it was here. The place was as big as half a parking lot of a big supermarket, and you could see from there the lights of the houses of ponyville. The car at the front went to the left, and we did the same, in order to find a free spot after the car. As expected, next to the place where the car parked, there was a big spot enough for Silverstreak and me. After parking the car and shutting down the engine, It was finally time for the great reveal. I opened the door of my car and I sat on the front of my car, waiting for the stares of the ponies to turn to me. Time for the show. Author's Note I had been busy lately with exams, and I wrote the chapter whenever I had free time, so if you find any errors or inconsistencies on the story please comment. Also thanks to the user Speedy Silverstreak for letting me use his oc. Go...It did not take much time for them to notice me, and in that moment I thought why I thought in first place that a social gathering was a good idea, because I had never been a fan of big concentrations, and much less when I was the center of it. I had never been the social type, and I conformed with the ocassional, almost monosylabe chat I had with my classmates. My heart started pumping at a high rate as I thougt of being the focus of the meeting, but at the same time, I wanted it. I guess it was the side effect of being lonely for almost two centuries, and Discord didn't count. He simply rambled nosense about his glorious days and what he planned to do when he broke free, and it was annoying how repetitive he was, so I paid him back with purposedly bad singing skills. Anyways, I was being surrounded by more and more ponies right there, so I had to think of some lines to break the ice. I lifted my hand and in a matter of seconds all the ponies went quiet and payed attention to me. "First of all, I want to thank all of you for coming here, knowing that I am wanted by princess Celestia and you are risking being caught right now, but that shows that all of you are really brave and you are not easily scared by her" I started with. I knew from the forums that racers did not have a good concept of the princess of the sun, as she was completely opossed to any type of motorsport. Guess it was my fault. As they cheered, I decided to continue."Now, to start with the event, we are going to make races in groups of four, and it will go all aroud ponyville, starting and finishing right there" I explained as I pointed to the road. "I will be looking at the races, and If your performance is outstanding, you might be selected for a final race against me, so do you best. May the best racer win" I ended as the crowd went wild and I went to the side of the road and waited for the first race to begin. ---------< As the races were being held, I had been asked by some of the younger racers questions regarding why Celestia imprisoned me. Of course I answered to show that I was not a threat, only a racer, if not the best in equestria. I think I should watch my ego, maybe somebody has beaten me in term of skills already. As the third race in which Speedy decided to participate was going on, I heard what it seemed to be a disscussion, so I decided to see what was happening. When I arrived at the scene, I saw a group of ponies that were circling a mare and a stallion that were discussing, almost shouting at each other. "This is not a place for weak mares like you!" I heard the pegasus stallion exclamate. "Oh, care to elaborate?" The unicorn mare asked in a moking tone. I instantly realized what they were discussing about, and in that moment I was completely determined to not let the stallion win over her, because I was not going to tolerate any type of segregation. I opened my way through the crowd into the center of the circle. As soon as the both of them saw me they went quiet, like if they knew that something important was going to happen. "Can someone please explain what's going on?" I demanded in a serious tone. "The problem is her, mares should not be allowed in here, they do not belong here!" he almost screamed in my face. "Oh yeah? WHY NOT?" I retorted him with a very unamused look. I couldn't believe that he was that sexist and irrational. Anyone on his right mind should know that his agument was very weak, and possibly the result of being taught the wrong things. I was simply met with silence so I decided to adress the issue so this would not happen in the future. "I thought so" I replied to his silence. "Everyone, listen well! I DO NOT FUKING CARE about you sex, race, or whatever other diference you have with the others, It should only matter how good you are behind the steering wheel, and because of that, both of you, when this race finishes, will race each other in a duel, and then we will see how much physical aspects matter. Now get ready because it is about to start!" I ended stating in my small speech. "DUEL! DUEL! DUEL!" I Heard the ponies repeat after my speech, and I could understand their euphoria. When the race is 1 versus 1 it is more exciting as there is a winner and a loser, nothing more, nothing less. As the crowd began to disperse I got near to the mare which was sitting in her car, which I recognised as the one that showed me the path to the meeting. It was a black car, similar to a mitsubishi lancer evolution. I looked at her. She was a deep blue skin unicorn mare, with black... hair? mane? and was in a black jean with a t-shirt that complemented the colour of the jean, and a pair of white shoes. So long story short, she looked preety much different than the other mares that simply went to see the event, she looked more... decent. She saw me coming and she tensed up a little bit, so I decided to rectify that by talking to her. "Are you worried about the duel?" I asked to her, and I obtained a nod in response. "Don't worry, I saw you driving when I was coming here and I'm confident that you will be able to beat him." I assured her. "If you win, I can guarantee you a place in the race against me, if you want" I told her to try to cheer her up a bit. "Thank you" she replied in a sincere tone. "It was nothing, I hate it when there is this type of ponies that believe in segregation are in the races, I just made sure that my voice regarding the matter was heard." I paused for a moment. "I hope you to see you again miss...?" "Stella, only Stella" she answered quickly. "Stella..." I repeated under my breath as I positioned myself again next to the finish line. Quite a fitting name for her look. ---------< Not many minutes later I saw Speedy crossing the finish line in first place. I did not expect less from him knowing his background story. That and also I saw him from a satellite network I bought at the interdimensional market, which costed me ten million speedpoints, but it was also useful to avoid Celestia and her guard, until I was caught. I had the phone muted and that costed me the double lifespan of a human in stone. Even though, it is still a good investment useful to spy anything with a strong energy signal that can be a threat. As soon as the last competitor reached the finish line, I saw both Stella and The pegasus cars position for the upcoming duel. Since It was a special race I decided to do the countdown, so when I saw them with the seatbelts on, I placed myself between the two cars, ready for the countdown. "GET READY!" I announced to the racers, and I was replied with the sound of engines revving. "3... 2... 1... GO!" As soon as I said the famous start word, both cars launched themselves towards the course, passing mere centimeters away from where I was standing. I quickly positioned myself at the side of the road and turned on my phone to watch the race from above. I had already targeted both cars, so I would not miss part of the race. After a long initial straight the first left turn appeared, which was very wide, so if you had the right speed and the right set of wheels you could take it without the need to drift and exit within the optimal course. I saw from above how Stella managed to clear the turn with no need of drifting, while the pegasus thought that drifting was a good idea at that turn. What a noob. It would be useful only if he was first, to defend the position. Later on the race, they both aproached a ravine, so in order to continue they both had to go down through 2 hairpins designed to let the descent of cars through there, and there, where I was expecting her to drift at a slower speed, she did something I only expected to happen at Initial D, but she actually managed to pull out. Stella car approached the inner side of the hairpin, and, at a higher speed than what I expected, she took her right wheels offroad and she drifted the hairpin at a speed that exceeded any normal grip. At that moment my mouth was very inviting to any insect that wanted to enter, and I also saw her perform the same trick at the second and last hairpin. With the time gained from those tricks, she had the race won. I simply stared at the screen of my phone, waiting for her to arrive at the finish line. Did I also mention the reactions of the ponies surrounding me? Because I also decided to share the race with the ones nearby, and I could tell from their faces that they were as surprised as I was. Not many minutes later, I saw her crossing the finish line, and ten seconds later the pegasus managrd to reach the finish line, but he decided to continue and get away from the meeting. Back to Stella, she was recieved by a crowd that at first cheered but then started to murmur, probably about how a mare had beaten a stallion. But I could only think of her skills, and how she would be a great rival to beat in the final race. After a few set of races all the candiates had participated, so I considered that it was time to announce my rivals. I managed to group all the ponies near to me, and I told them to follow me, as I would choose the cars that were to race me. First I went directly to the cars that were parked near to me, Stella and Speedy cars, and I announced that they had passed. They were met with 'woos' and applauses. Then I went to announce the final car. As I approached it, I saw that it was similar to a Dodge dart, but the mystery was in who was the driver, so I did an obious question. "Who is the driver of this car?" The last thing that I expected was the answer coming in the form of a certain multicolor mane pegasus. Author's Note Please, If you see any plothole, DO NOT hesitate to comment and explain which is (if it is something I will develop later I will tell you). FEEDBACK is HIGHLY apreciated and important for me to correct the story. Never buy in internet from guys with strange names(At least 152 years ago) I was sitting in front of my computer replaying need for speed rivals like for the nth time playing in the racer carrer on the chapter in which Zephyr steals the Koenigsegg one:1 from the police, when I recieved a call in my phone. I exit the game and attend the call. "Hola, quien habla?" I say to the person on the other side of the phone. "It's me bro" I get a reply in spanish. I almost forgot that today is the day in which Juan, my elder brother calls me from an university in the USA, as he went to study abroad, while I decided to continue my studies here in South America due to not having enough funds and still being in the last year of high school. "So how is life treating you at university, Juan?" I asked. "Well, we have the exams right around the corner, and I can't say that I regret studying an engeneering carreer." He answers. "And what about you, Seba?" "Well, right now I'm in the middle of a vacation, so I spend time either reading or playing games. Right now I was playing rivals". "Cop or racer?" "Racer" "Hehe, always the rebel one, don't you?" "Of course, it is more exiting being chased". I also talked about the grades that I got on my first year, and when he started lamenting that he would not be able to be for my 18th birthday I told him that I understood the reasons behind it and I told him not to worry. After ending the call, I decided that instead of keep playing, I would read some mlp fanfiction, specially the ones with humans. I found the site when I was searching for scenarios in which humans go to equestria, and since then I read many other stories in the site, mostly with humans, and I got a special interest on the displaced stories: common people getting wrecked by void guys and also by the royal sisters when they imprison the main character for an insane amount of years, only to make him pissed off and seeking revenge when they are freed, or they prove themselves that they are not a threat. What annoyed me a bit about the stories is that they always had powers (no offense meant, some are awesome to read), in a way that in some stories the characters are overpowered, and thus the story loses it's fun. After finishing reading some chapters of the story of auric, I decided to check on internet for offers of collectible cars. I was a fanatic of cars, althrough I had never driven one in my life, but when I get the chance, I will apply for the driving license and I will do the good stuff with it. While surfing through different sites, I came across a model that I had seen before: a rather large model of the Koenigsegg one:1, but in this case, the price caught my attention; it was at half the price I saw in other sites. I instantly opened that product and saw the guy that was selling it, a John V. Dweller. 'Strange name' I thought as I started to enter the data of my master card my father gave me to buy the model. I couldn't lose that offer. ---------< After contacting the guy and coordinating the delivery through mail I decided to play in my phone some asphalt 8, because on that moment I wanted some physics-defying action. I choose a quick race on sector 8 with some S class cars and again I play with the Koenigsegg one:1. ---------< After finishing on first place (again) I turn off the phone and I prepare dinner,some pasta with tomato sauce, not so complicated, and I go to sleep. ---------< (Some days later) As I hear the engine of my mother's car fading away in the distance, I go to my computer and start playing some need for speed undercover. As I am being chased by the police on a level 5 pursuit, I hear the bell of the door. I pause the game so I could attend the door, and when I open the door I see a mailman with a package under the arm. "Sebastián Rodriguez?" He asks. "That would be me" I answer. "Please, sign here" he requests as he hands me a sheet of paper and a pen. I sign the paper and after handing back the receipt the man gives me the box. "Please enjoy" he says in a misterious tone as I close the door. After closing it, I proceeded to open the box, and what I find is what I expected, the scaled Koenigsegg one:1 on the original box. After retiring the box with the car I found a note attached at the bottom of the cardboard box. It said: 'Good luck, you will need it tomorrow'. It was weird at the moment, so I decided to ignore it and I proceeded to unbox the car; I looked at all the components and I couldn't believe how detailed it was; the doors, the engine, the wheels... After admiring the car for hours, I saw that it was getting dark, so I decided to go to sleep and skip dinner, as I had an abundant lunch, and thus I wasn't hungry, so I took off some of my clothes and I felt like a rock over the bed. I woke up the next day to the sound of birds. I went to the bathroom to clean my face, and when I went to prepare my beakfast, I noticed something strange: I did not hear any car pass next to my house. That was strange, as my house was quite near to a main road, so there was a constant stream of cars passing. I decided to ignore it for the moment, and I proceeded to pepare a sandwich and some milk. When I finished, I decided to check the weather, so I went back to my bedroom to put on some comfortable winter clothes, but when I opened the door, I saw something I did not expect. Outside there was a big forest wall that in some places had what it looked as roads, and as I walked around the house, I simply saw more trees and trees. Sudenly, I realized that I wasn't home anymore, so I started breathing heavily to avoid screaming and panicking, and I entered my home quickly, as my breakfast wanted to get out of my stomach. After the uncomfortable moment in the bathroom, I decided to check my smartphone which I had left yesterday next to the car, but when I reach the table I notice various things: First, the car is not there, instead I see an object with the Koenigsegg logo, and second, I see a note under the object. "Your adventure starts now. V.D." it said. "Qué mierda significa esto?" I asked myself. I grab my phone and the object and I start looking at it, and I notice that it has two buttons: one with an open lock and other with a closed lock. I press the one with the open lock and hear something coming from the garage. I cautiously advance towards the garage door and open it, and when I turned on the lights, I had to slap myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming. NO. FUCKING. WAY. Right in front of me I had a Koenigsegg one:1, one of the most powerful cars in the entire world, and I had suddenly realized what was that object in my hand. It was the door controller for it, so that could mean one thing. I bought a 7 million dollar car for 200 dollars. After my brain ended processing what I just saw, I thought about my situation. "I am in the middle of nowhere, so what I have in the fridge will run out soon. I need to move and find a place to restore my reserves. Should I use the car knowing that I had never driven before?" I asked myself. ... "Fuck it, I'm going to practice" I finally decided. I walked towards the garage entrance and I opened it. Then I walked towards the car and I opened the door. I sat down as I closed the door, and then I placed on the seatbelt. Safety first. "How do I start the engine?" I asked myself as I started Tapping all the buttons, until I saw the one that said start/stop. "let's do this" I cheered myself as I pressed the button and got greeted by the rumbling of the engine. ---------< If I learned something from my practice, is that I am a fast learner: I got the hang of the gas and brake pedal, and I got the feel of how much the steering wheel controlled the front. When I thougt that I had enough, I decided to start my quest of finding civilization by opening the maps in the phone. In that instant, I noticed several things. First I saw that the phone indicated that it was the year 1848, and then, that the signal bar was replaced with an infinite symbol, as well as the battery icon. When I opened the maps app and I zoomed out, I saw THAT word. The one that made me realize where I was. And what I was. And that made me realize that the complete name of the guy that sold me the car was John VOID Dweller. Equestria. And I had been ~~wrecked~~displaced by a void dweller. ... ... ... FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- Author's Note Third chapter. So now we know more about Zephir, but how he ended imprisoned? You will find out soon.
OP car and video game logic"Row row row your boat, gently down the CLIFF..." I singed to avoid thinking about the situation in which I was currently. "Would you please shut up?" a statue asked."You already sang that song like a billion times! And I mean literally!" he stated. "You know, I never thougt that I could make the god of chaos mad by simply singing a parody of a child's song" I replied. "The problem is that you sing bad on purpose!" he answered. "Trust me, it has a purpose that in the end will benefit both of us" I said as I saw a group of fillies and colts directing towards our location,"speaking of it, it is about to be fullfilled by those students" I finished. "What are you talking about?" he asked. "Just watch, Discord" I replied. He simply didn't respond, so I assumed that he understood and he was preparing for whatever was going to to happen. Due to me watching My little pony I knew perfectly what was going to happen. Even if this was an anthro version of equestria. After Cherelee gave the lesson to the students about Discord and His regin and after she punished the CMC for discussing, one of them did THE question. The one that reminded me that I wasn't in a cannon universe. "Who is that pony, miss Cherelee?" Scootaloo asked pointing towards me. "That is not a pony scootaloo, is a creature that is called a human" she said. "Not much is known about him, exept that he commited many crimes against equestria" she added. "hey, that sounded like I was a traitor" I Complained internally. "Also it is believed that he was the first creature ever to have a car in equestria" she also said. "Wait, how do they know about about cars?" I asked myself. After listening to what celestia seems to teach about me and moving on to whatever place they had to, I noticed that the statue of discord started to tear apart until he finally surged from the stone. "It feels good to finally strech after being in the same position for at least a thousand years" he claimed. "And now for helping you to gain power you will free me as well, because if not the next time I will sing even worse" I said mentally, knowing that he could hear me. He simply rolled his eyes, and with the snap of his claw I fell free in the grass. "Now you are free. Do whatever you need to do, because now I have some chaos to cause" he said as he popped out of existence into who knows. I got up from the floor and I went to a nearby fountain to look at myself. Black t-shirt? Check. Blue jeans? Check. Shoes? Check. After checking I had all my clothes I hid in some bushes. I took everything from my pockets and verified that I had my smartphone, my keys, my wallet and most importantly, the controller to unlock the doors of my most inportant car. The Koenigsegg one:1. Being the only megacar in the entire world, only seven were produced by the company. And I had one. Anyways, I checked on my void smartphone the location of my nearest car. It seems like this happens to all the displaced, because my totally op car happened to be the nearest one. Can you guess where did the gps pointed to? Correct! Into the castle! "Ok, so i think that I will have to wait until Celestia notices that discord went missing so that she dispatches some guards to 'defend' the city. Then I am going to sneak in through secondary hallways to avoid being detected. Probably when I reach the place where it is it will be heavily guarded with magical spells to detect any thief, but I still have that virus that according to that displaced Aiden it should work to deactivate even the strongest spells. If it does, I shall make sure to thank him for the virus the next time I see him. When I get the car MAYBE , JUST MAYBE I will let her know that I am back, somehow." After making that plan I waited to obious signs of discord that Celestia would notice. When I saw chocolate milk raining I started moving. I reached the wall of the castle and started looking for an open window. I found one that was low enough and climbed into the castle. Luckily there wasn't any staff right there so I had time to hide behind the nearest pillar and start sneaking nearer and nearer to my precious car. At least I had to hide from 2 patrols, but apart from that the journey to my car was uneventful. As I expected when I arrived, There was a massive vault door where my car could fit in. "It's time for the truth" I said as I opened the development software and transfered the virus to the vault door through wireless connection. As he promised, the door opened without any more complications and there I saw the object from which Celestia separated me for a long time. My one:1. I reached my pocket and used the controller to unlock the doors. "Seems like the car parts that I bought from that void guy last for a really long time" I said to nobody to particular when I saw that electronics seemed to work. I opened the driver's door and I proceeded to enter the car and close the door again. After putting on the racing harness, I went to activate the gps. "Ok google" I said." Open maps and place the following waypoints: throne room, main castle entrance and nearest canterlot entrance". "Waypoints established" the phone replied. Without further ado, I started the engine. ---------< "Thank you twilight for saving Equestria once again" Celestia said as she congratulated her student and the elements. As she prepared to say the next thing a guard busted in. "Princess! The statue that was next to discord is no longer there! He is possibly free!" It took her some seconds, but she realized what pony, or in this case, person, was missing. "Tell the guards to check the vault and..." Too late. As she was saying that she heard that something was coming towards the castle. The next thing she knew, a luxury car busted into the throne room and started making some drifting donuts until it stopped facing the recently destroyed door. The window of the car lowered and the pony inside looked at Celestia and the elements. "Did you miss me Celly?" He said. "Zephyr" she only managed to say before he closed the window and started screeching the tires until he launched himself, leaving confused looks and two fire strips. "Make all the royal guard units to stop him at any costs" she finally managed to say to the confused guards. ---------< After personally confronting the princess ( which was a strategically dumb move by the way) I made my way to the main entrance after making my car jump through some stairs. "Waypoint reached" the phone said. I looked at the last waypoint and I saw that at least I had to drive 3 kilometers to exit the city. "To all the units, we have a code 1 in progress. The suspect is driving an unknown car, license plate charlie five uniform charlie kilo five" a female voice in my radio said. "Since when does the royal guard have radio?" I asked myself. I only got more questions when I heard a very earthly sound. The siren of a cop. "Stop right there!" A guard shouted. Of course, instead of halting the vehicle I floored the gas and I activated the nitro I gained from the donuts I did in front of Celestia. ... Yeah, video game logic. Anyways, that meant that Celestia gave the order to pursue me to all the royal guards in canterlot and right now I was possibly the most wanted racer in Equestria. ---------< "A pursuit right now? Are you sure?" "Yes. We heard of it in the royal guard radio." "Ok, we will take the helicopter right there." "This is going to be on all first pages." ---------< I look at my side and I see on the sky a helicopter. "I wonder how much time has passed since I was imprisoned" I thought. "Ok google, which year is now In Equestria?" "This is the year 1002 After the banishment of the princess luna of equestria" It said. "150 years, not bad" I said to the air as I thought of the guys that were imprisoned for at least one thousand years. That would be insufferable. As I evaded another blockage from the royal guard I saw that now I had only 1 kilometer left until the exit. I tuned the car radio to see if there was any other frequency, and I was plesantly surprised when I found a radio station. "Breaking news: an unknown pony just busted out from the canterlot castle and right now it seems to be heading to the outside of the city. Stay tuned for more information." "Well, it seems that right now I am all over the news" I said as I saw that 500 meters ahead they were lifting the bridge in a desesperate attempt to stop me. "No you don't" I shouted as I activated the nitro once more and I prepared for the upcoming jump. As I lifted in the air I looked how all the cops started to break fearing the jump of the bridge. All except one. The cop jumped behind me and also landed behind me. I took a closer look at the car that was chasing me and, when I realized which car was, I could only think of one word. Shit. Author's Note Here is the first chapter. If you find any typos, spanglish and errors in general please coment below.
More op cars, downhill battle and eurobeatSo, I told you what I thought, but nothing about the car that was chasing me. It was another Koenigsegg. But not any Koenigsegg. It was a fucking Agera rs. I may have a megacar, but the Agera is fucking fast. So fast that before being displaced it was the fastest accelerating car in the world. Althrough It can't go faster than mine. But It didn't matter, because we were in a mountain pass going downhill. Wait. Mountain pass going downhill. Do you know what time it is? IT'S EUROBEAT TIME! As the eurobeat kicked in, I remembered that I was being chased by the agera, so I started with the evasive maneuvers. I saw that ahead there was a sharp turn, so I slowed down a bit to take that turn with a drift. I thougt that with the trick I would get further from the cop, but I was in for a surprise, as the cop also drifted along the turn. "heh, so I suposse that I surprised you, huh?" a voice in the radio transmitter said. "Not bad, but that was just a warm up" I replied through the transmitter. "who are you, by the way?" he asked. "I shouldn't tell you as I am a fugitve, but since Celestia knows me I am going to tell you. you can call me Zephyr" I said as we took a second turn. "So Zephyr as in need for speed rivals?" he asked. "Yes, as in- WAIT, WHAT?" I managed to say. "Well, I am going to assume that you are a human as well" he said."since you are Zephyr I think that you can call me fate" F-8 concluded as both of us took a third turn. I chuckled at the reference. "Anyways, I think it's time I get away from you. Being more time in stone is not my idea of fun" I ended stating. After that small exchange I Acelerated after exiting a new turn, and I activated the nitro I gained by drifting in the corners. Only to see him do the same. "So you thought you could get away from me so easily? I heard him say. I was starting to get pissed off, but I remembered one of the most important rules when driving: do not let emotions drive you. I took a deep breath and I focused In the road. "Ok google, how much until the end of the mountain pass?" I asked. "The map indicates 10 kilometers" it replied. "Good. So now I must find something I can use to break the pursuit" I said aloud accidentally. Good thing I did, because I got an answer. "The nearest pursuit breaker is at 5 kilometers" the phone said. "Since when the phone could tell me these things?" I asked myself. ---------< After attacking another corner I took a look at the map, and I saw something that would at least make me gain more distance from him and make the pursuit breaker effective, but it could be a bit dangerous. Right ahead there was a light right turn, followed by a sharp left turn, so I could start drifting in the right turn for then using the weight of my car to change the attacking side and exit the sharp corner at a higher speed. Basically a Scandinavian flick, better known by the internet community as 'NANI!?KANSEI DORIFTO!?' or simply inertia drift. I may have learned the technique from a T.V show, but as my mother used to say, 'reality beats fiction', so impossible, it was not. But it seems that destiny wanted to make it difficult, because right ahead I saw some cars going in the opposite way, so when I oversteer I would have to press the gas harder to avoid crossing the yellow line. As I aproached the right turn, I prepared mentally for the maneuver I was about to perform, and when I reached the beginning of the turn, I gently oversteered the car being careful at the same time that the car stayed in the line, and I saw the cars passing next to me centimeters away. When I was about to exit the turn to enter the sharp one, I violently countersteered being careful of not hitting the railing of the turn, and I managed to do the drift missing the railing by at least 5 centimeters. When I exited the drift I saw that F-8 did the drift at a much slower speed, giving me more distance as I activated the nitro. "Pursuit breaker at 1 kilometer" the phone announced. I started looking for it and, after advancing some meters, I saw it: a green sign indicating that the pass ended at 5 kilometers and other distances. The pillar that supported the sign was near the edge of the asphalt, so I thought of using the rear of the car in a 'deer evasion' scenario to hit it. I alligned myself with the sign, and when I was like 100 meters away, I mentally prepared and started drifting, and when I hitted the sign, time seemed to slow down as I corrected my course that was altered by the hit. Seems like F-8 saw what I did, because he instantly started breaking as he saw the sign falling, meaning that I managed to block the road and end the pursuit. "This is not over!" I heard him shout in the transmitter. He was right, my escape was only the first of many. "Yes!" I shouted, celebrating my sucsessful escape. "Breaking news: the canterlot fugitive managed to escape the forces of law and order after an intense pusuit. The recordings show that he managed to stop the last enforcer after destroying a sign. Stay tuned for more information." "Wow, that was fast" I said to myself. After getting further from the pursuit end and reaching a highway that would take me to Ponyville, I decided to stop for a little bit and let everyone know that I was back. I put my transmitter to all the frequencies and I said: "I am the one that defies rules. I am the nightmare of a cop. I am the enemy of the corrupt ones, for I AM ZEPHYR." With that, I launched myself towards the everfree, as I thought of how all of this happened. Author's Note Second chapter in one day! Next time we wil know more about Zephyr and who really is.
The other side of the coin"I am the one that defies rules. I am the nightmare of a cop. I am the enemy of the corrupt ones, for I AM ZEPHYR." Click. "...the misterious fugitive identified as..." Click. "...racers in the online community recieved with euphoria who is known as the first racer..." Click. "...Zephyr's pursuit is right now the trending topic in all media..." Click. "... ponies expect the government to give answers soon..." Click. The sound of changing channels in the television of one of the many sitting rooms distributed throughout the castle could be heard by the ponies that were watching it, which right on this moment were the elements and the two royal sisters, and they couldn't believe that despite all the efforts of the royal guard, this apparently simple guy managed to escape a code 1, the maximum priority given to a fugitive suspect ever. Then, after some moments, Twilight did the questions. "Princess, who is Zephyr? I had never read about him. And how some ponies knew about him?" Celestia stood there thinking how to answer the question, until she decided to say it all. "Well twilight, I think it will be better If I start from the beggining..." ---------< (152 years ago) Celestia has been worried for the safety of her little ponies at least for six months now, as she had been recieving reports of a strange metal carriage that visited the towns near to the everfree and was scaring some of the inhabitants, so she sent an order to capture the carriage and the creature behind it. She was in the middle of another court day, listening to the ~~fucking~~ nobles and their complains, when a random royal guard busted in the throne room. "Princess! The carriage and the creature are in the entrance! And he is asking for an audience!" "He?" she thought for a moment before ordering to let the creature pass and cancelling all the appointments with the rest of the nobles, and then she proceeded to wait. Finally, the doors opened, and a tall creature of almost the same height of the princess appeared escorted by four guards, wearing a simple white shirt and blue trousers of an unknown material. After the guards were dimissed, the creature spoke. "So, you wanted something from me?" He simply asked. It seemed that the creature didn't knew her, because he was speaking in such a relaxed way, so she decided to present herself. "I am..." "Princess Celestia of equestria, raiser of the sun and for the moment of the moon, and bla, bla, bla. Of course I know you" he said after interrupting her. "I am Zephyr, nice to meet you" he said before she could react as he extended his hand. She also extended her hand and suddenly she found it being grabbed by his hand and being shaked. She supossed that it was some sort of greeting so she simply tagged along with it. After recovering from that experience she did the obious question. "What are thou Zephir?" ---------< The elements couldn't believe it. Zephyr knew her and even though he treated her as an equal, even if she was far more powerful than him. "After the introductions he proceeded to explain me that he was from a race known as the humans, and told me about him and the humans in general, at first I was worried about the wars they had, but after I told him about our story, he made good points on how we were not so different, exept for magic." "How?" Twilight asked. "He told me about how they lacked any magic, refering to it as an 'excuse to explain complex things', and how they compensated all of that with only technology to the extent of being able to travel long distances and landing in the moon and coming back." Twilight was surprised. She knew that reaching the moon with any magic that wasn't the elements or alicorn magic it was impossible, but according to her mentor these humans did it with no magic at all. "Actually, if it wasn't for all the technology he showed and told me about we would still be in the same era as 150 years ago" she concluded. "But princess, why did you had to imprison him? He seemed like a cool guy" Rainbow Dash asked. "It happened that the way he drived, as you could see, It was very dangerous and in various situations he almost injured some ponies while performing his tricks with the car, so I warned him and told him to stop doing it, but he disobeyed and I emmited an arrest order against him, but he simply escaped without us knowing where he went. We never knew where was his home, as he never told us. Finally, one day we setted a trap to flat the tyres of the car, and when he got out I shot at him a stone spell, turning him in stone. I decided to keep the car in the royal vault, and I placed the statue in the garden." "You did well, racers don't stop until it is too late, princess" a male voice added. Everyone turned to see another human, but this one had a blue police officer uniform and it seemed that he has been hearing for a long time. "Officer Destiny" she said to the newcomer, "I heard that you were close to arresting him, don't you?" "Yes princess, but I came to tell you something in private, if you don't mind". "Of course" she said as she politely asked everybody present to retire."So, what did you wanted to tell me?" "It's about Zephyr. I think I know why he acted like that before being imprisoned". ---------< Meanwhile, somewhere else near ponyville, a certain Koenigsegg was driving towards the everfree in the highway 42 west, as he listened to the radio stations and what he learned on it was worth it. "So they now have internet, huh? Well, when I arrive home I shall share my awesome comeback in the social media, just like the real Zephyr would do" he said as he took an exit near to the everfree and started his offroad journey towards his place. His home. Author's Note Possibly worst chapter up to now, using an excuse that can almost be compared to johnny wick. But I want to move on and get as soon as possible to the main plot. Until then, see you soon.
Home sweet home and void stuffAfter going through the forest for a couple of kilometers, I finally managed to reach my home, which in only 2 years has suffered many changes, althrough they are not visible from outside, because I was going underground. I reached the garage door and I used my phone to open it, and I was greeted by a ramp that took me to an underground garage. After reaching the bottom I parked my car in one of the various parking spots I had, and if you thought that I only had one car, then you are for a surprise, because I actually had more than one. First, I had a Tesla model S, an electric car that looked as a regular car, so If I wanted to enter a city for any reason in incognito, this was a good car to use. Thanks to it's fixed gear, I can accelerate really fast to the 100 kilometers, and with a top speed of a bit more than 200 kilometers per hour it was a car that was also suitable for racing. Second in the list I had a Subaru Impereza Wrx Sti, and this was the first car I used to practice the manual transmission. When I managed to dominate it, It became the second most used car by me, as in the void they really like quarter mile (400 meters) drag races with manual transmission, making the art of shifting gears a determinant skill to win those races. I also had the Pagani Zonda R, which had a special space in my heart because when I was only a child I managed to buy it in the phone version need for speed undercover, being the most expensive car in that game, and I remembered my exitement when I drove it for the first time. I used it in friendly regular races across the multiverse, in real earth circuits and also in fantasy ones, such as sector 8. Seriously, if you think of the track, it surely exists somewhere in the multiverse. Of course, when there was an interdimensional tournament I would use the Koenigsegg, so I could try to end in the best position and win good prizes for my position. I actually managed to be between the top 20 of one thousand in one of those competitions. After shutting down the engine I went to the door that led to the rest of my home, and when I opened it, I knew I would have to make some cleaning. I went to the service closet and took everything I needed to clean, and started with the tedious task. ---------< After what it seemed to be hours, my house turned from a dusty ruin into an (almost) brand new house. The four bedrooms of my family clean, the kitchen shined, the sitting room as new, toilets unclogged and the underground swimming pool with clean water. After so much effort, I decided to sleep like a rock. ---------< I woke up the next morning before the sun came up, and I decided to check on my interdimensional bank account, so I could see how many speedpoints I gained from the pursuit. When I first found out of the currency being speedpoints, I thought that it was a joke, but I learned later that due to racing being a dangerous carreer needed to balance harmony and chaos in the different universes and at the same time being a fun activity that you needed to be extremely lucky to be a racer, speedpoints were a really valuable currency, to the extreme of 1 speedpoint being the equivalent to 10 dollars. I opened the bank account and I found out that the recent pursuit that I had gave me 2000 speedpoints. That was above the usual, as I generally recieved less than a thousand speedpoints per task acomplished, but taking into account that the pursuit had a high impact on the media, I supposed that It was ok. I checked the total balance of my account and I found that I had in total more than three million points. That's right. Three. Million. I might be a millionarie, but for being a racer it was under average, but I didn't care that much, because it was more than enough for retiring for more than 10 years. But of course I wasn't going to retire, racing is life and I didn't intend to change it. After that I contacted the interdimensional property services, and I recontracted the water and electricity services, as they were cut off after I was imprisoned and I was running on the emergency reserves, which sooner or later would run out. Due to the void being the void, all the sevices were restablished as soon as I ended the call, I went to my good old computer to upload the pursuit I escaped. I connected my dashcam to the computer, I did some basic editing such as cutting off unnecessary parts and the video was ready. I opened a web browser and proceeded to create accounts in various sites, such as a video sharing site called MyVideo, which I supposed it was an equestrian version of Youtube. At least the site names did not have horse puns. While the video uploaded, I decided to check all the news webpages to get up to date. I first opened the canterlot times, and an aerial photo of my car escaping was the the first thing I saw. I did not expect that, as I was released at the same time as discord. I found out that the royal guard had a very clean record, and most of the pursuits ended with an arrest, so the media found it surprising that I managed to escape them, almost causing a crisis in the royal guard. I can't believe they are so intolerant to failing. Errors exist to learn from them, not to simply give up. Inspirational quotes apart, I found out that the street racers of equestria had a forum, and I read many comments on how exited they were that 'the first racer of equestria' was back, and that they were waiting for me to appear in one of their many nocturnal meetings to challenge me, so I decided to take the initiative, and I wrote an invitation: "Tomorrow at 9:00 pm, at the outskirts of ponyville. -Zephyr Ps: I will come in a different car." And at the same time that I sent the invitation, I got notified that the video finished uploading. This gonna be good. Author's Note I noticed that quality was decreasing, so now I am taking more time to write the chapters and keep up a good work. I will come with the next chapter soon, and we will know more about other characters.
ReadySilverstreak started reading again the forum that had almost broken after that message, and he saw how all the community was going nuts over the possibility of meeting that pony, or in this case, human, that according to what his grandfathers said, was the very first creature to drive a 'self propelled carriage', as it was called back in that time, and he was not going to miss the opportunity. He wanted to personally see the human that racers almost idolized after his sucessful escape and return to the world of street racing. for him, he was a hero, not only because he used to be close to the family, but because he was the guy that gave hope to the racing community, the reason why the community became active once again. Many still remained skeptical of the authenticity of the message, but in general you could feel the euphoria in the chat, which it was about to be skyrocketed. Many in the forum started posting a link to certain video in MyVideo, but at first he decided to ignore it, until he got fed up with so many ponies posting it and he decided to open it. The first thing that he saw was the point of view from a car going at high speeds through canterlot while avoiding the royal guard. It also showed other external perspectives and you could also hear the radio communications of the royal guard. It took him some seconds, but when he saw who published the video, he knew why ponies were going crazy about the video. It was clear the message he wanted to transmit. Nopony in his right mind would dare to publish such stunt after escaping no more and no less than the princess of the sun. But with that video, he showed that if any calculator divided by the number of fucks he gives about the princess, the calculator would give error. Or at least the description of the video said that. It would be a matter of hours before the video reached all main media. Silverstreak decided to leave his computer and he went to check his car for tomorrow. ---------< Not many hours later in the Canterlot castle, the elements were preparing to leave the castle, and while they were waiting for the train while watching the tv, the news broke in most of the channels. "URGENT: Not many hours after his escape, the now most wanted criminal, Zephyr, has posted a video in which he shows his point of view while escaping from the forces of law and order yesterday. Also, unofficial sources say that he will meet racers tomorrow at night, at an unknown location near Ponyville. Stay tuned for more information. The reactions from the elements were mixed: Twilight was fuming of anger, Fluttershy and Rarity had looks of concern, Pinkie was eye wide and Applejack had a poker face. However, the most curious reaction was the one of Rainbow Dash. "That was awesome" she managed to say under her breath. "Did you say something, darling?" Rariry asked. "Ah, um, no?" Dash lied. It seemed like Applejack did not notice, because nothing else was said. Right now, the only thing she thought about was meeting that creature that Celestia catalogued as a 'threat', because apart of having a good set of skills to avoid the royal guard, he simply seemed inoffensive, and she was pretty sure that she could take him down alone. ---------< The royal sisters just finished watching the news, and Celestia was the first to speak. "We need to duplicate the reinforcements in ponyville Luna, he will be close and I do not want accidents happening..." "I think that we should not, sister. He might be testing us. From what I could see from him he could easily escape even when he is in disadvantage, so sending guards will only result in him gaining more influence over ponies, and you don't want that happening, don't you?" Celestia sighed."I think you have a point there, sister. I will tell the guards to not interfere in poniville tomorrow." "Wise decision, sister" Luna said before retiring to her chambers, thinking of the point she made. "YOU don't want that happening..." ---------< Ok, I had a good look at the different reactions of my video, and I found quite a strong support, which surprises me since what I did is ilegal, but it seems like they got quite a good entertainment, because my video was trending and I got at least half million views in such a short time, which is a large number considering that this world has way few creatures on it. Anyways, I need to see which car I am going to bring to the meeting, so I went to the garage. I instantly discarded the one:1 and the Zonda, since it would attract too many stares and I was not going to drive the one:1 as I said in the message. Then, the Tesla seemed too 'normal' and I wanted to save it for incognito, so I was finally left with the Subaru, which seemed as a good option as it looked more like a racing car, but yet it seemed as a regular street racing car. You know, even if I am a fast learner 150 years can oxide your skills, and shifting manually the gear is a bit complicated, so I thought that a little bit of practice before the event would be necessary, so I took the keys of the Subaru and I took the car to the nearest route. ---------< I did good on practising some gear shifting, because It took me dozens of attempts before I managed to shift the first gear without stalling. Also I practised some drifting and high speed turns with the Subaru to get used to the car, as I did not usually use it for other type of races rather than quarter miles, and I could say that now I was ready for the event tomorrow. It was almost night when I arrived home, and after parking I started recalling memories of the escape pursuit, more precisely when I was being chased by the Regera. And I thought of the conversation. Another human. And he is in the side of law. Since it seemed that technology has been around for quite a long time, I decided to make some research on his persona. I started by searching news about humans, and I saw that most of the articles dated from at least two years. And when I opened the first one and I saw the face of my rival, I froze. "It... it can't be possible" I managed to say. Author's Note Sorry for the very late update. I was organizing better my story so it makes more sense.
SetI woke up the next morning with the sun already up, and it was on purpose, as I needed energy for the meeting today at night, so I was pleased that I could sleep so many hours. 'It can't be him' I thought again. Since last night I couldn't stop thinking about my rival. Which were the odds? It was more likely that I win the lottery rather than him appearing in the same Equestria I was. I decided to dimiss the thought and I decided to prepare a lunch before the event. ---------< After eating my lunch, I went to my Subaru and I took it to the mechanical section to check the condition of my car. I opened the front and I looked at the oil and coolant levels, and also I did a general inspection of the different parts there. Also I checked that the wheels were in optimal conditions to make sure I had a good grip for the race. As everything looked fine, I took the car back to the garage and now towards the exit. I parked the car In front of the main entrance and I made my way towards the sitting room in my home. I throwed myself in the couch and I entered youtube in my phone, in order to listen some music. Even if I had been impisoned for a century and a half singing the same songs over and over again, it never gets old, so I selected a song composed by Imagine dragons. Even If I had problems on singing the fast paced parts of the song, I simply conformed with singing the regular parts and the chorus, which personally, I think is the part that described me the best. After the song finished, I decided to play some games in my computer, but this time I aimed at something different to racing games. I selected a random game and I started to kill time. ---------< I was in the middle of a game of enter the gungeon when an alarm that I set 1 hour before the meeting went off, so I paused the game and I quickly grabbed some important stuff, such as the car keys and, since I was going to be with strangers, a taser. I bought it after I almost had an incident with another racer in a tournament, and since I am not good at hand combat, I bought it for self-defense. Ponies may have a record for being peaceful creatures, but since this was the underground world, I could not risk getting into a fight and be almost defenseless, so I had it as a safety measure, even if it would not work in pegasi due to their natural resistance. After double checking that I had everything I needed, I exited the house and I sat down in the car, ready for tonight's event. ---------< Right now I have been for 15 minutes in the route that circles ponyville, and I decided to slow down my pace as I already familiarized with the track I intended to use in the meeting. Also, I was looking for other cars, and I would try to overtake them. If they are racers, they will try to defend their position and speed up, thus starting a race. I was looking for my first victim when I saw behind me a black car, which it seemed to be similar to the one used by toretto in the fast and furious movies, but since I was not very informed on the models, I could not give a guess. Besides, this is equestria, a complete different place to earth, so cars should have different names. When it was closer to me, I accelerated my car to match his speed, and I saw it do the same, trying to overtake me. It confirmed that it was a racer when in a sharp curve the car drifted, so I decided to meet the racer. I turned on the intermitents as I slowed dowm my car at the side of the road. The other driver seemed to understand, because he also stopped at the left side of my car. I lowered my window as we stood in the darkness of the forest that surrounded the route. "So are you headed to the meeting don't you?" A male voice asked. "I was going to ask the same" I replied. "Do you know where it is? I still haven't found any place with many cars around" he asked. "I don't know, I have not chosen a place yet" I replied with a smile as I turned on the internal lights of my car. I should imagine that his brain was processing what was going on, but before he could react, I extended my hand through my window into his car. "I'm Zephyr, nice to meet you...?" "Silverstreak, Speedy Silverstreak" he managed to answer. Now it was time for me to be surprised, because the Silverstreak surname was very familiar to me. "Wait, do I know your family?"I asked. "My great grandfather, Sonic Silverstreak" he replied. My god, it hasn't been more than a few days and I am already meeting familiar faces. What a luck. "It is good to see that the Silverstreak family is alive, and that they are still interested in the motorsports" I answered. I remembered back to a century and a half, when the first pony became interested in my 'contraption'. At first he simply watched, but later he got interested on how it worked, and he started asking me questions, which I happily answered, as long as I knew how to. He even told me that he worked on replicating the engine before I started to be chased by the princess. "So, did he finally manage to introduce cars to the world, huh?" I asked curiously. "Technically, yes". "What do you mean?" "According to what he said, not many years after meeting you he managed to show a prototype that the royal guard took with all the other designs, and nothing is known about the destination of it. We tried to claim the authory of the first prototype, but since it was confiscated we do not have the evidence, officially the creator of the first car is a scientist that worked in one of the royal factories" he explained. "Anyways, any racer knows that you were the one that gave him the knowledge to build the first car, even if public documents show otherwise" he ended. At the same time, another car passed us driving dangerously at high speed, and with a nod we floored the gas of our cars and we started to follow the new car. ---------< We had been chasing the car for a good time now, and, unexpectedly, the new driver started to slow down in a straight and turned on the right intermitent, and we did the same. I saw an instant later a rather large group of cars parked, so that only meant one thing, it was here. The place was as big as half a parking lot of a big supermarket, and you could see from there the lights of the houses of ponyville. The car at the front went to the left, and we did the same, in order to find a free spot after the car. As expected, next to the place where the car parked, there was a big spot enough for Silverstreak and me. After parking the car and shutting down the engine, It was finally time for the great reveal. I opened the door of my car and I sat on the front of my car, waiting for the stares of the ponies to turn to me. Time for the show. Author's Note I had been busy lately with exams, and I wrote the chapter whenever I had free time, so if you find any errors or inconsistencies on the story please comment. Also thanks to the user Speedy Silverstreak for letting me use his oc.
Go...It did not take much time for them to notice me, and in that moment I thought why I thought in first place that a social gathering was a good idea, because I had never been a fan of big concentrations, and much less when I was the center of it. I had never been the social type, and I conformed with the ocassional, almost monosylabe chat I had with my classmates. My heart started pumping at a high rate as I thougt of being the focus of the meeting, but at the same time, I wanted it. I guess it was the side effect of being lonely for almost two centuries, and Discord didn't count. He simply rambled nosense about his glorious days and what he planned to do when he broke free, and it was annoying how repetitive he was, so I paid him back with purposedly bad singing skills. Anyways, I was being surrounded by more and more ponies right there, so I had to think of some lines to break the ice. I lifted my hand and in a matter of seconds all the ponies went quiet and payed attention to me. "First of all, I want to thank all of you for coming here, knowing that I am wanted by princess Celestia and you are risking being caught right now, but that shows that all of you are really brave and you are not easily scared by her" I started with. I knew from the forums that racers did not have a good concept of the princess of the sun, as she was completely opossed to any type of motorsport. Guess it was my fault. As they cheered, I decided to continue."Now, to start with the event, we are going to make races in groups of four, and it will go all aroud ponyville, starting and finishing right there" I explained as I pointed to the road. "I will be looking at the races, and If your performance is outstanding, you might be selected for a final race against me, so do you best. May the best racer win" I ended as the crowd went wild and I went to the side of the road and waited for the first race to begin. ---------< As the races were being held, I had been asked by some of the younger racers questions regarding why Celestia imprisoned me. Of course I answered to show that I was not a threat, only a racer, if not the best in equestria. I think I should watch my ego, maybe somebody has beaten me in term of skills already. As the third race in which Speedy decided to participate was going on, I heard what it seemed to be a disscussion, so I decided to see what was happening. When I arrived at the scene, I saw a group of ponies that were circling a mare and a stallion that were discussing, almost shouting at each other. "This is not a place for weak mares like you!" I heard the pegasus stallion exclamate. "Oh, care to elaborate?" The unicorn mare asked in a moking tone. I instantly realized what they were discussing about, and in that moment I was completely determined to not let the stallion win over her, because I was not going to tolerate any type of segregation. I opened my way through the crowd into the center of the circle. As soon as the both of them saw me they went quiet, like if they knew that something important was going to happen. "Can someone please explain what's going on?" I demanded in a serious tone. "The problem is her, mares should not be allowed in here, they do not belong here!" he almost screamed in my face. "Oh yeah? WHY NOT?" I retorted him with a very unamused look. I couldn't believe that he was that sexist and irrational. Anyone on his right mind should know that his agument was very weak, and possibly the result of being taught the wrong things. I was simply met with silence so I decided to adress the issue so this would not happen in the future. "I thought so" I replied to his silence. "Everyone, listen well! I DO NOT FUKING CARE about you sex, race, or whatever other diference you have with the others, It should only matter how good you are behind the steering wheel, and because of that, both of you, when this race finishes, will race each other in a duel, and then we will see how much physical aspects matter. Now get ready because it is about to start!" I ended stating in my small speech. "DUEL! DUEL! DUEL!" I Heard the ponies repeat after my speech, and I could understand their euphoria. When the race is 1 versus 1 it is more exciting as there is a winner and a loser, nothing more, nothing less. As the crowd began to disperse I got near to the mare which was sitting in her car, which I recognised as the one that showed me the path to the meeting. It was a black car, similar to a mitsubishi lancer evolution. I looked at her. She was a deep blue skin unicorn mare, with black... hair? mane? and was in a black jean with a t-shirt that complemented the colour of the jean, and a pair of white shoes. So long story short, she looked preety much different than the other mares that simply went to see the event, she looked more... decent. She saw me coming and she tensed up a little bit, so I decided to rectify that by talking to her. "Are you worried about the duel?" I asked to her, and I obtained a nod in response. "Don't worry, I saw you driving when I was coming here and I'm confident that you will be able to beat him." I assured her. "If you win, I can guarantee you a place in the race against me, if you want" I told her to try to cheer her up a bit. "Thank you" she replied in a sincere tone. "It was nothing, I hate it when there is this type of ponies that believe in segregation are in the races, I just made sure that my voice regarding the matter was heard." I paused for a moment. "I hope you to see you again miss...?" "Stella, only Stella" she answered quickly. "Stella..." I repeated under my breath as I positioned myself again next to the finish line. Quite a fitting name for her look. ---------< Not many minutes later I saw Speedy crossing the finish line in first place. I did not expect less from him knowing his background story. That and also I saw him from a satellite network I bought at the interdimensional market, which costed me ten million speedpoints, but it was also useful to avoid Celestia and her guard, until I was caught. I had the phone muted and that costed me the double lifespan of a human in stone. Even though, it is still a good investment useful to spy anything with a strong energy signal that can be a threat. As soon as the last competitor reached the finish line, I saw both Stella and The pegasus cars position for the upcoming duel. Since It was a special race I decided to do the countdown, so when I saw them with the seatbelts on, I placed myself between the two cars, ready for the countdown. "GET READY!" I announced to the racers, and I was replied with the sound of engines revving. "3... 2... 1... GO!" As soon as I said the famous start word, both cars launched themselves towards the course, passing mere centimeters away from where I was standing. I quickly positioned myself at the side of the road and turned on my phone to watch the race from above. I had already targeted both cars, so I would not miss part of the race. After a long initial straight the first left turn appeared, which was very wide, so if you had the right speed and the right set of wheels you could take it without the need to drift and exit within the optimal course. I saw from above how Stella managed to clear the turn with no need of drifting, while the pegasus thought that drifting was a good idea at that turn. What a noob. It would be useful only if he was first, to defend the position. Later on the race, they both aproached a ravine, so in order to continue they both had to go down through 2 hairpins designed to let the descent of cars through there, and there, where I was expecting her to drift at a slower speed, she did something I only expected to happen at Initial D, but she actually managed to pull out. Stella car approached the inner side of the hairpin, and, at a higher speed than what I expected, she took her right wheels offroad and she drifted the hairpin at a speed that exceeded any normal grip. At that moment my mouth was very inviting to any insect that wanted to enter, and I also saw her perform the same trick at the second and last hairpin. With the time gained from those tricks, she had the race won. I simply stared at the screen of my phone, waiting for her to arrive at the finish line. Did I also mention the reactions of the ponies surrounding me? Because I also decided to share the race with the ones nearby, and I could tell from their faces that they were as surprised as I was. Not many minutes later, I saw her crossing the finish line, and ten seconds later the pegasus managrd to reach the finish line, but he decided to continue and get away from the meeting. Back to Stella, she was recieved by a crowd that at first cheered but then started to murmur, probably about how a mare had beaten a stallion. But I could only think of her skills, and how she would be a great rival to beat in the final race. After a few set of races all the candiates had participated, so I considered that it was time to announce my rivals. I managed to group all the ponies near to me, and I told them to follow me, as I would choose the cars that were to race me. First I went directly to the cars that were parked near to me, Stella and Speedy cars, and I announced that they had passed. They were met with 'woos' and applauses. Then I went to announce the final car. As I approached it, I saw that it was similar to a Dodge dart, but the mystery was in who was the driver, so I did an obious question. "Who is the driver of this car?" The last thing that I expected was the answer coming in the form of a certain multicolor mane pegasus.

FEEDBACK is HIGHLY apreciated and important for me to correct the story.
Never buy in internet from guys with strange names(At least 152 years ago) I was sitting in front of my computer replaying need for speed rivals like for the nth time playing in the racer carrer on the chapter in which Zephyr steals the Koenigsegg one:1 from the police, when I recieved a call in my phone. I exit the game and attend the call. "Hola, quien habla?" I say to the person on the other side of the phone. "It's me bro" I get a reply in spanish. I almost forgot that today is the day in which Juan, my elder brother calls me from an university in the USA, as he went to study abroad, while I decided to continue my studies here in South America due to not having enough funds and still being in the last year of high school. "So how is life treating you at university, Juan?" I asked. "Well, we have the exams right around the corner, and I can't say that I regret studying an engeneering carreer." He answers. "And what about you, Seba?" "Well, right now I'm in the middle of a vacation, so I spend time either reading or playing games. Right now I was playing rivals". "Cop or racer?" "Racer" "Hehe, always the rebel one, don't you?" "Of course, it is more exiting being chased". I also talked about the grades that I got on my first year, and when he started lamenting that he would not be able to be for my 18th birthday I told him that I understood the reasons behind it and I told him not to worry. After ending the call, I decided that instead of keep playing, I would read some mlp fanfiction, specially the ones with humans. I found the site when I was searching for scenarios in which humans go to equestria, and since then I read many other stories in the site, mostly with humans, and I got a special interest on the displaced stories: common people getting wrecked by void guys and also by the royal sisters when they imprison the main character for an insane amount of years, only to make him pissed off and seeking revenge when they are freed, or they prove themselves that they are not a threat. What annoyed me a bit about the stories is that they always had powers (no offense meant, some are awesome to read), in a way that in some stories the characters are overpowered, and thus the story loses it's fun. After finishing reading some chapters of the story of auric, I decided to check on internet for offers of collectible cars. I was a fanatic of cars, althrough I had never driven one in my life, but when I get the chance, I will apply for the driving license and I will do the good stuff with it. While surfing through different sites, I came across a model that I had seen before: a rather large model of the Koenigsegg one:1, but in this case, the price caught my attention; it was at half the price I saw in other sites. I instantly opened that product and saw the guy that was selling it, a John V. Dweller. 'Strange name' I thought as I started to enter the data of my master card my father gave me to buy the model. I couldn't lose that offer. ---------< After contacting the guy and coordinating the delivery through mail I decided to play in my phone some asphalt 8, because on that moment I wanted some physics-defying action. I choose a quick race on sector 8 with some S class cars and again I play with the Koenigsegg one:1. ---------< After finishing on first place (again) I turn off the phone and I prepare dinner,some pasta with tomato sauce, not so complicated, and I go to sleep. ---------< (Some days later) As I hear the engine of my mother's car fading away in the distance, I go to my computer and start playing some need for speed undercover. As I am being chased by the police on a level 5 pursuit, I hear the bell of the door. I pause the game so I could attend the door, and when I open the door I see a mailman with a package under the arm. "Sebastián Rodriguez?" He asks. "That would be me" I answer. "Please, sign here" he requests as he hands me a sheet of paper and a pen. I sign the paper and after handing back the receipt the man gives me the box. "Please enjoy" he says in a misterious tone as I close the door. After closing it, I proceeded to open the box, and what I find is what I expected, the scaled Koenigsegg one:1 on the original box. After retiring the box with the car I found a note attached at the bottom of the cardboard box. It said: 'Good luck, you will need it tomorrow'. It was weird at the moment, so I decided to ignore it and I proceeded to unbox the car; I looked at all the components and I couldn't believe how detailed it was; the doors, the engine, the wheels... After admiring the car for hours, I saw that it was getting dark, so I decided to go to sleep and skip dinner, as I had an abundant lunch, and thus I wasn't hungry, so I took off some of my clothes and I felt like a rock over the bed. I woke up the next day to the sound of birds. I went to the bathroom to clean my face, and when I went to prepare my beakfast, I noticed something strange: I did not hear any car pass next to my house. That was strange, as my house was quite near to a main road, so there was a constant stream of cars passing. I decided to ignore it for the moment, and I proceeded to pepare a sandwich and some milk. When I finished, I decided to check the weather, so I went back to my bedroom to put on some comfortable winter clothes, but when I opened the door, I saw something I did not expect. Outside there was a big forest wall that in some places had what it looked as roads, and as I walked around the house, I simply saw more trees and trees. Sudenly, I realized that I wasn't home anymore, so I started breathing heavily to avoid screaming and panicking, and I entered my home quickly, as my breakfast wanted to get out of my stomach. After the uncomfortable moment in the bathroom, I decided to check my smartphone which I had left yesterday next to the car, but when I reach the table I notice various things: First, the car is not there, instead I see an object with the Koenigsegg logo, and second, I see a note under the object. "Your adventure starts now. V.D." it said. "Qué mierda significa esto?" I asked myself. I grab my phone and the object and I start looking at it, and I notice that it has two buttons: one with an open lock and other with a closed lock. I press the one with the open lock and hear something coming from the garage. I cautiously advance towards the garage door and open it, and when I turned on the lights, I had to slap myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming. NO. FUCKING. WAY. Right in front of me I had a Koenigsegg one:1, one of the most powerful cars in the entire world, and I had suddenly realized what was that object in my hand. It was the door controller for it, so that could mean one thing. I bought a 7 million dollar car for 200 dollars. After my brain ended processing what I just saw, I thought about my situation. "I am in the middle of nowhere, so what I have in the fridge will run out soon. I need to move and find a place to restore my reserves. Should I use the car knowing that I had never driven before?" I asked myself. ... "Fuck it, I'm going to practice" I finally decided. I walked towards the garage entrance and I opened it. Then I walked towards the car and I opened the door. I sat down as I closed the door, and then I placed on the seatbelt. Safety first. "How do I start the engine?" I asked myself as I started Tapping all the buttons, until I saw the one that said start/stop. "let's do this" I cheered myself as I pressed the button and got greeted by the rumbling of the engine. ---------< If I learned something from my practice, is that I am a fast learner: I got the hang of the gas and brake pedal, and I got the feel of how much the steering wheel controlled the front. When I thougt that I had enough, I decided to start my quest of finding civilization by opening the maps in the phone. In that instant, I noticed several things. First I saw that the phone indicated that it was the year 1848, and then, that the signal bar was replaced with an infinite symbol, as well as the battery icon. When I opened the maps app and I zoomed out, I saw THAT word. The one that made me realize where I was. And what I was. And that made me realize that the complete name of the guy that sold me the car was John VOID Dweller. Equestria. And I had been ~~wrecked~~displaced by a void dweller. ... ... ... FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- Author's Note Third chapter. So now we know more about Zephir, but how he ended imprisoned? You will find out soon.
