Sweet Apple Acres after the rescue

Big Macintosh, had been doing the most fighting to ward of the timberwolves, when AppleJack had arrived she helped her brother out while Zecora watched over this beings unconscious body. Although she couldn't help but wonder what he was. She picked him up due to his smaller stature and ran off towards her hut with no warning to the apple siblings. AppleJack and Big Mac were too caught up with the fight that they didn't notice Zecora running off with this being. Once the battle was complete they simply looked at each other and sighed glad that they were out of harms way before AppleJack speaks up. "Hey there Big Bro, Ah am gonna head back towards the barn, party is starting soon and we need to be there for Spike. If'n ya want to go see what all this is about go ahead to Zecoras hut, ah know ya been there a few times so ya know your way." She encourages him with a smile and tip of her stetson hat before she headed back to the farm. Big Mac however, was going to take her hint and started his trek towards Zecoras Hut.

Zecoras Hut

She had carried him a good distance into the everfree, following her usual patterns. However upon her arrival at the hut he had slowly awoken from his slumber. The moment the door opened up, and the creak of the door was heard he kept silent scared for his life. He didn't bother to panic, he knew if he did perhaps this thing would pick up on the change in his breathing patterns and think he was awake. Thoughts ran through his head on just what exactly this thing was going to do to him!

He felt something soft underneath him, he didn't know what it was but it seemed like a hammock? Maybe a makeshift bed of some sort? The sound of a boiling pot was causing him to begin to shake his fear betraying his "Sleeping" form. He opened one eye slowly and looked over there stood an anthromorphic zebra? He noticed a cloak nearby and figured it was the one he met in the forest. Looking down, he found that his cloak was removed, and he was left with torn pants and shirt from the earlier battle. Attempting to sit upright, to quickly run he noticed her back turned at just the right moment! Taking the initiative, he swiftly moved towards the door and...

Big macintosh was standing on the other side of the door and gave a few knocks, opening it up to see him right there. However, this thing was too fast and swiftly moved passed him as Big Macintosh looked slackjawed then at Zecora who seemed to frown. "He got out while you were about?" All Big Macintosh could say in his stupor was, "Eeyup..."

Everfree Forest

"What the fuck are those things?! They looked almost human but not! Wait a minute..." His sprint through the forest slowed down to a stop. "Anthromorphic Zebra, giant red stallion..... Where am I? This isn't earth!" He stomped the ground in frustration only to grunt in pain from his previous injuries that have not healed.

"You are in Equestria!" A deep voice came from behind, causing him to immediately turn around. The moment he did so, he was grabbed by the top of his head while he ran in place as he was lifted up off the ground by Big Macintosh. "Woah there, no need to be runnin' off again ya hear? Ah don't bite none not unless you mess around with mah family ya hear? So whats yer name?" He stated as he then began to slow down to not moving at all with a sigh he spoke out. "My name is Vex."

Big Mac was happy he was finally getting through to Vex, setting him down it seemed he didn't attempt to run this time. He simply let his legs fall beneath him as Big Mac seemed to walk around and sit down in front of him in a cross legged position. "Now, we both have questions fer each other but ah am sure ya wanna figure out some things so you go ahead and ask first Vex."

He had so many questions running through his head but one stook out more then any other. "Have you seen anything like me at all before?" Big Mac simply shook his head, "Can't say ah have really, yer the first one of your kind ah met and your kinda funny lookin' my turn. What is your species called?" A smile slowly crept upon his face, in this world he awoke in with nothing but terrors this was welcome in his eyes. "I am what you would call a human, and I originate from a planet called earth." This caused Big Macintosh eyes to raise, "A human? Ain't ever heard of them before and you say your from another planet? We may need to get you out of these here woods, Zecora that Zebra you ran from? Was trying to heal you but since ya ran off she couldn't leave mid way on her potion. So now ya gotta deal with it, so lets go Vex back to the hut." He grunted a bit, grumbling under his breathe as Big Mac seemed to help him up bit by bit.

Zecoras hut as they are heading back

Zecora was grabbing some herbs and other things in the back of her hut where she had her own garden of exotic plants. She had entered back into her hut with a frown across her face, she moved towards the book stationed beside the cauldron.

"We can't have this human running off again, especially giving the pain hes in. I am sorry Big Macintosh, but this thing is awash in my mind." She sighed as she began to put some of the ingredients in the pot just before they had arrived. The cauldron bubbling more so a tint of slight red. There was a knock at the door as Zecora closed the book and opened it up allowing them in. Big Macintosh was the first to enter, and the thing behind him followed seeming to smile a bit.

Big Macintosh had him sit back down where he was resting prior, and when he did so Zecora brought a small bowl made out of some coconut. "Here drink for the pain to dull, otherwise your body may give you an earful!" She gave a comforting smile, as he simply gave a skeptical look Vex still didn't trust Zecora and he didn't know why. However, with Big Macintosh giving him a nod of approval he just sighed and sipped of the concoction. Vex eyes opened wide as he dropped the bowl, and fell unconscious a look of betrayal in his eyes. "W-what?....."

Big Macintosh and Zecora frowned as he fell to the world of sleep, and Big Macintosh picked him up. "I will inform Applejack but it won't be a simple task." Big macintosh sighed as he spoke out, "Eeyup, gonna take him straight to Twilight maybe she can help with understanding him?" With a wave, he left Zecoras Hut and as he walked forward into the everfree and through Sweet Apple Acres. "Ah am sorry Vex, but ah don't know what to think of ya, ya seem like a nice guy but we don't know if your a danger. Simply put, ah am sure yer gonna have quite a few choice words if'n ya ever see me again."

Canterlot Castle (Throne Room)

A knock echoed within the throne room, as if to signal Princess Celestia of a visitor. "Come in." On queue, the door slowly began to open as the guard called out, "A Sir Big Macintosh has come by, and uh he seems to have brought a strange creature draped over his shoulder?" This caught the Princesses attention, as she looked over at her sisters throne, to see it vacant and gave a nod. "See him in, but have guards position at the windows and doorway." The Guard saluted and moved back out, shortly after Big Macintosh entered. The doors slowly closed behind him, as he moved forward and when he got close he carefully laid Vex down on the ground in front of her.

He gave a bow before speaking up towards her, "Princess Celestia, this creature was found in the Everfree forest but seems to come from another world as they have stated. They said their name is Vex and they come from another world called Earth, I managed to get him to trust me to go to Zecoras but after putting him to sleep..." He let out an audible sigh, "I don't think things are going to be easy for him here. He seems to be rather small compared to us, however he has some combat prowess as he managed to run and fight off some Timberwolves for who knows how long." He complimented at least to lighten the mood with a smile of his own.

Princess Celestia was surprised by this information, slowly moved down from the throne a sway of her hips with each movement, the slit in her beautiful white dress that seemed to hug to her every curve that had an open top that let her beautiful bust be allowed to breathe and viewed by any who saw her contained behind the veil and straps that went to each shoulder. Her rainbow flowing mane moving with a nonexistent wind before she knelt down in front of him and lifted his chin. "Mr.Macintosh, you may stand, but why did you bring him to me?" This threw Big Mac off a bit before he spoke up, "Ah, uh well don't know if he may be a threat to equestria? Ah mean, better safe then sorry?" He responded seeming a little confused by her reaction.

"Well then, if you think he may be a threat then I will see to it that he is put into a secured room where he will be visited by our finest doctors and nurses, we must ensure that anything we gather is not inaccurate if we are to determine if he is a threat." She called out to the guards who quickly entered, Big macintosh slowly standing up and moving aside with her permission. "Sir Light Chasm, please take this "human" To the doctors chambers and make sure he is confined to the bed, we don't want him escaping." With a nod and salute he picked him up with ease and ran off into the hallway, leaving Big Macintosh looking in sorrow before looking back to Princess Celestia. "Why the long face?" She stated before he responded. "Ah missed Spikes party, pretty sure he may be upset ah wasn't there?" He seemed to have a worried look on his face as Princess Celestia simply smiled. "No need to worry about that Big Macintosh, I am sure that he will understand once you explain to him the truth." He simply gave a nod before he looked back about to say something but was enveloped in a bright light and disappeared from the throne room before he could speak.

"A human?.... From another world?... An alien so to speak? This is rather troublesome, for now I will have to keep him a secret and I am sure things won't get too hectic right?" She spoke out loud before she returned to her throne and continued her duties.

Vex Dream World

He had awoken in nothing but a dark void all surrounding him, laying in the middle of a white circle. He rubbed his head as he looked around, "Where am I?" His voice echoed into the darkness before a voice responded back, "You are inside your head, your dream world you could say, and it would seem that you don't really have any dreams going on right now. Perhaps it is because you are in another world?~" The voice seemed to echo back causing him to be paranoid, "Who are you?! Why am I asleep all I did was....." His face turned to that of shock, "Oh seems you finally realized it, yup you were drugged and put to sleep, seems that your new friend didn't know if you could be trusted!" The voice echoed back before he felt a hand touch his shoulder, "But that doesn't mean you have to let that get to you without a chance for revenge." The voice was alluring and feminine, sounded somewhat motherly as he turned around there he saw Nightmare Moon.
