Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Inside William his house , location Everfree

After his calm tea and some food William felt a little tired even with the sun still out so he went back to bed.

"Hopefully some rest will do me some good I'm happy what ever brought me here made a clearing"He thought still feeling sore as he headed to bed having the most peculiar dream.

It was of earth but a strange version it showed human in robes and armour fighting with each others and beings of myth laughing of the destruction left in their wake
"What the fuck , well pretty accurate though I mean without magic humans already kill and fuck up a lot so this is rather realistic representation" he said in his dream unknown someone was watching him in the dream realm.

His dream switched over to what can only be described as a magical battlefield with houses torn asunder but it seemed empty except for 3 humans well if you can still call them that one had wings another had a skeletal hand and one seemed normal but had the attire of an alchemist bottles of potions hanging on their belt

"Did I play to many fantasy RPGs cause this dream is strange" William said irritated as the three seemed to do a ritual and spoke in a language he didn't understand which was followed up by a giant flash of light that pulled more light from everywhere around it as the surrounding area in the dream turned to a normal field but on the person with the skeletal a skull of what seemed to be a horned beast similar to a dragon from some fantasy game started to disappear as well as some of the strange features of the three people

"Ugh well at least things look better I don't know what that glowing light that is going to where they stand is though seems to Come from everywhere, ugh strange dreams" William sighed

"I agree thou art a strange creature with strange dreams as for why thus doesn't wake this is normal for thine kind I take" a unknown voice rang

"Who is there?" William looked around and notices an anthropomorphic Lady with dark night sky blue hair with stars in it , a horn and wings that seemed to wear a regal dress and had hooves instead of feet he looked in shock

"Well my dream just got weirder either my subconscious is trying to tell me something I didn't expect to like or I have a visitor in my dreams" He replied looking at The anthropomorphic alicorn till he recognised what the regal dress style made him remember.

"Thou art indeed strange hasn't gotten thee a visit during restless night of terror before during thine stay within Equestria? Or hast thou been so secluded by thine herd that thou doesn't knowest me and why hasn't thou broken in tears from this sight in your dreams?" She asked as if asking a child

William just looked in shock at who he was talking too "I uhm ... Sort of know of you but honestly what do you mean a herd and why are you here, I'm pretty sure it was still day when I decided to nap? And why would I cry?" He asked her

"Thou are a stallion aren't thou , how would thee not know what a herd is if thee are in Equestria , art thou feeling well does thine head mare not take thour wellbeing in regard? She asked confused

" head mare? Stallion? Listen your Highness I'm sorry but I'm not a pony so the term stallion doesn't fit my race but what do you mean with head mare and you haven't told me yet why you have come in my dream?"

"Thou art a funny stallion or what thine species term for it may be. As for thine question we were wondering what creature would be sleeping in the epicenter of a magical fluctuation and having such troublesome dreams" she replied but with a hint of compassion for a unknown reason

"So basically curiosity good to know well I'd rather not have well anybody snooping in my head cause honestly I'm starting to feel a headache" he replied

"What does thou mean with anybody , thus thou mean anypony?" She replied

William nodded while holding his head in his dream against the pain

"Thour rest is being disturbed by pain in thine head but does thou not need comfort young stallion thou art handling the pain well but thou aren't crying did thine herd mothers treat thy poorly and why art thou putting up such a strong front thine need not hide thine emotional side of thine princess" Luna asked worried and is ready to try and use a memory prying spell on William but as she does so the pain becomes worse and makes William wake up in cold sweat more sore then before and with a heavy headache

"Ouich what the hell did Luna do and what did she mean with those strange terms , ugh and worse she was treating me as a weak wall flower that's just" he let's out a wince of pain

"bloody headache and what the hell was she trying to do? Well better try to figure things out later" he sighed as he layed down on his bed then got up

As he stood up his head felt like he got hit by a darn truck and he seemed to gain a fever "What the actually hell did she try to do and why did she look like a anthro fan art drawing and not a pony , well she was still attractive though" William thought as he looked for an aspirin and walked to the kitchen sink and turned a nob "

Right no water pipes in a forest , ugh well it isn't advised but to hell with it , I'll take it with soda then" he grabbed a bottle of cola out the fridge and took the aspirin with some cola

When he sat down hoping the medication would kick in he heard someone or some pony shout outside

"I found the place girls" Rd shouted but as she flew above it she crashed and made a lot of noise

William recognised the voice since it was perfectly similar to the show but Rainbow Dash her shouting and the crash only made his headache worse

"Really the worst time to have a headache" he sighed and looked outside at a crashed anthropomorphic Rainbow dash

Well she is dressed thank God this place isn't all nude like the cartoon cause dear god if it weren't for that then well I don't know hmm still without clothes they'd look good too ... No don't think that, She Is a anthropomorphic Pegasus with cute blue fur a white tank top and a short black training short on for god sake he thought

While William was arguing with some inner demons and morals Rarity Fluttershy and twilight approached the house seeing Rd get up from her little accident

"This is interesting this place has such low amount of magic like a blank spot the grass here shouldn't be growing but it is probably the lack of magic must have pushed part of the Everfree back and this creature it's house it looks far beyond what I could guess" Twilight's voice rang out a overly enthusiastic interest (which is never a good sign)

"I must say the creature has some taste I was expecting a disgusting cave like structure or worse" Rarity responded

"Rainbow dash why were you laying on the ground?" Twilight asked

"I flew to close to this place and poof, I fell down I couldn't fly That's what happened I'm done with all this weird stuff let's get the stallion somewhere safe and find out what's going on"Rd responded bluntly

"I agree, I have so much to research about this weird stallion its home and itself" Twilight replied

William was looking outside and noticed a expression on twilight her face of pure well over enthusiastic interest as he looked outside the mares noticed him but his first instinct was locking the door and moving away

"Wait we are here to help you dear , though I must say you have a nice attire of clothing on" Rarity replied trying to woo the strange stallion out with ment compliments

"Don't worry girls I'll use a simple spell to unlock the door"twilight got ready in front of the door as her horn glowed but the purple glow got absorbed by the house and door leaving twilight in shock

" Yeah that doesn't seem to be working, Hey come out big guy if you can fight a manticore and kill a direwolf some mares ain't going to scare you?"

"Uhm... Maybe we should let it be i... Mean it might never seen ponies before and remember its a stallion" Fluttershy said softly

"That's it, yes I've never seen ponies before but the one thing that scares me is the purple unicorn with the overly enthusiastic face that , and she even tried to break in with I don't know what that purple magic so and a blue Pegasus which previously stated she want to take me from my home but hell no I'm staying here go find somepony else to drag out of house and home" he responded angrily

"Wait he can talk?!" Twilight seemed more exited

"Yes it seems so dear but it seems both you and Rainbow Dash have already made the poor stallion uncomfortable Darling maybe me and Fluttershy can talk to him" she said kindly

"We wouldn't want the poor dear to have an episode" Fluttershy said to her friends who sighed deeply and nodded

Episode? he thought. What do they mean with that , ugh I swear my Brony knowledge ain't helping jack shit here but as long as the abduct friendly Pegasus and professor house cracker stay out I guess I can trust them since Fluttershy seems to be the same like the show soft and caring so she wouldn't do anything

"Uhm ... mister Everfree stallion can we please come in me and my friends are worried about you since... The Everfree... Is a dangerous place" she asked in a kind soft voice

Damn Fluttershy why are you so kind and cute , I just can't say no he thought

"Uhm ok you and your white friend can come in but no funny business"

"Hmm that's wonderful Darling also may I see your exquisite clothes I saw you wear I wonder what kind of clothing your kind wears" Rarity said while William opened the door still holding his machete

"You can but those two can't come in" he glared daggers at twilight and rainbow dash

"I'm very sure they didn't mean to frighten you Darling" Rarity replied as she and Fluttershy walked in they looked around both amazed and in shock for a certain Smell was missing

"So are you OK you don't have to keep holding that sword now nopony will hurt you"Fluttershy said smiling and William put the machete next to him unarming himself causing the yellow Pegasus to make a shee noise

"Too cute noise , sorry that noise you just made was adorable" William then thought about something as he rushed to lock his uhm bedroom

"Why did you lock that room Darling" William smiled "Uhm just embarasing hobbies" he lied , he didn't want to explain the mlp plushies and figurines in his bedroom

"I'll let you see my clothes later miss can I offer you two anything to drink" he said smiling Fluttershy noticed William his teeth

"You're a carnivore?" Fluttershy asked scared

"More like omnivorous though my race is labeled as carnivorous because the amount of meat we eat but uhm don't worry no pony or horse meat or well whatever is sentient here cause that would be against my ethics" he replied a bit nervous not wanting to scare the mares

Fluttershy seemed calmer while twilight outside was taking notes and following the conversation rainbow just seemed bored as can be.

"Hmm I don't think a stallion like you would have any red wine laying around" Rarity asked

"I actually do I only drink it on special occasions though still if it you want some well you two are my guests and have been polite and didn't act strange , what Do you want yellow miss" William said since he thinks since no pony introduced themselves it be well um strange to call them by their names

"I... I am Fluttershy and.... I'd like tea if it isn't thats ... Alright for you.. " she said in a soft tone

"Some nice soft calming tea for the cute calming Pegasus" he smiles at her but his actions made the two mares confused

"I am Rarity , outside are two of my friends Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle"she said still trying to act normal even at the strange behavior of the stallion

"I'm William , William Cross" he said kindly

William came back with multiple glasses a red wine bottle and multiple cups and tea
"Here's said tea for the soothing Pegasus and Red wine for the well mannered Lady" William Says as he prepares their drink and hands it to them

"What a gentle colt , still your action's are a bit strange darling"Rarity said

"And how am I strange is it impolite to ensure guests are well taken care off?" He asked confused

"... She uhm doesn't mean that I mean...uhm ... The compliments and... Way you talk... Is a bit... "Fluttershy said something really softly so William couldn't hear the rest of the sentence

" uhm , I'm sorry miss Fluttershy I didn't catch that" William responded with a smile

"She means your a crazy stallion that doesn't make sense and gives compliment like a mare would which is bucking crazy" RD responded irritated from being locked out

"Rainbow Darling mind your language , stallions are sensitive" Rarity and twilight responded to her

William just laughs "what from the word bucking if it synonymous for what I think it is you don't need to worry about that , sorry I'm just.. Well first Luna in my dream acting as if I'm supposed to be a delicate wall flower its well funny to which extreme you think it goes bit annoying too but more hilarious in this situation" he replied still trying his best not to break into more laughter

The only thing he gets is worried looks from Fluttershy and Rarity

"So ... No Smell of any female in a house and a stallion all alone , oh poor dear" Rarity and fluttershy hugged William only causing William to be confused

"Maybe the lack of a mare broke the poor stallion to become like that since I don't Smell a mare around" Twilight said while looking inside "he probably doesn't even know anything else who knows how much he is hurting under it all"

"Or He really became tougher then other stallions" Rd responded

Fluttershy and Rarity were crying in the hug causing William to feel sad and try to dry their tears "OK girls what's going on what's with the waterworks , was it something I did or said sorry I'm confused"

'It's nothing deary its just whatever made a stallion end up alone and here well strange we can only imagine how your herd mothers treated you and how hard it was for you until now"

Fluttershy nodded still crying while William tries to comfort them.

"There there you two shouldn't worry I don't know what a herd mother is or well the rest really why you are so sad but honesty I'm OK and have a good life minus the well lack of water and annoying critters" William responded while smiling

Fluttershy and Rarity were no longer crying but looked in shock at the stallion only imaging worse but seeing the smile of the strange stallion they are happy and hug him

"Uhm thanks for the hugs" he said confused

"OK now I can't even stand this , this stallion hasn't been raised well I don't mind the feminine side but this is just wrong" Twilight said

Fluttershy looked at William "Are you sure you don't wanna come with my friends ,you must have it hard " she asked looking up at William looking cute as can be

"I'm sorry Flutters ,I can't leave my home it's well the only thing I have from where I come from" he replied as he smiles at her

"don't worry I'm a tough cookie so don't. Be sad also it might just be a racial difference since I'm no pony I mean I'm not actually from around here" he replied

Twilight outside heard William talk "

"So you aren't native to the Everfree , so are you a lost predator did someone summon you with magic may we come in I'd like to take notes and well rather not be in the open?"Twilight asked

William sighed and let her and Rainbow Dash in
" I'm letting you in no funny business I stay in my house and no dragging me against my will" he said in a threatening tone as he stared at Twi and Rainbow

"Come on you don't have claws have weird hoof things you walk on, your not that scary" Rd replied

"Well I'm happy you think so but well the manticore thought different" he replied

"Well maybe you got lucky" Rd responded as she and twilight walked in

"Lucky I think scorching the flesh of any creature trying to attack you is enough to make a point" he replied

"But how did u make metal hot I don't sence a lot of magic here and what are you? Where is your mare or what your species name for it maybe and how doesn't this place have any sent of mare's at all" Twilight asked looking at William

"One electricity no magic , two I don't have magic where I come from so any magic related question will be pure speculation in the future , I'm a single man or stallion as you call it since I had bad relationships and I'd rather stay alone and this house wasn't build by a mare it was build by me and well some people I hired back where I came from, as for what I am human or well homo sapien , I could lookup in one of my books what the precise scientific categorisation is , and my apologies if I seem strange but coming from a place where my race is the only sapient creature and where magic and most things I've seen until now are the stuff of legends and hmm old pony tales I think your term would be I might seems strange because of that"

"Wait wait wait if you don't have magic how do you control the weather?" Rd asked

"We don't ,weather clouds the sun and moon all work by themselves , I noticed here the clouds move by themselves too but considering what you said it is abnormal yes" he replied while twilight was still wrapping her head around what William said about his world

"Thats impossible everything has magic" twilight looks at William as she then prepares a spell to scan the magical energies inside William to proof him wrong

"Wow what are you planning to do?" William took a few steps back and grabbed his machete

"Just a little magic spell to check how much magic you contain cause I don't believe a place without magic exists" twilight replied

"Uhm.... Maybe that isn't a good idea if his habitat doesn't have any magic or not a lot it could harm him...." Fluttershy replied

Twilight didn't listen and cast the spell but just like with the door the magic got absorbed before doing its function sadly for William it got absorbed into him causing him to cry in pain as he began to become feverish

"Oh no ... Sorry I just wanted to do a little test if you had any magic I , if a weak spell like this already affects him ambient magic in the area must cause him discomfort" twilight stated

"In normal pony " Rd replied

Fluttershy was about to speak but William as he cried in pain started to speak

"It's very simple my body sees the magical energy as an invading power isn't attuned to it and is well getting harmed by it" he winced out in pain

"So the stallion is an egg head too" Rd replied

"Well Thats the best theoretical explanation , I'm impressed a stallion figures it out" Twilight said looking at William with a big smile

"He is in pain he needs help" Fluttershy said while trying to take care of the human

"If he can't handle magic we can't do much for him" Twilight replied

"Oh that just can't stand if we can't take him out for care we must bring the care here we can't let this well mannered gentle Colt just fend for himself" Rarity replied

"What about the slow exposure tactic" William replied still sweating and in pain but trying to not show it too much

"What do you mean darling?" Rarity asked

"Well my body isn't used to magic a slow exposure would have milder effects so my body can adapt to it slowly though it means I'm Still stuck here for a while but it should help" he replied

"That's a clever idea but you said before you had no water and I don't think you have food for the entire period , and well we can't always be there to take care of you" Twilight replied

"Awe come on he doesn't need constant babysitting I mean sure he has been raised bad for a stallion but it made him tougher and he is a smart one . With help of some of us at times He surely can last here till he can handle magic" Rd said proudly

William laughed and coughed "yeah a little fever ,stiffness and headaches ain't bringing Me down, as for water well I have a little idea but I'd need a certain fabric that is used as filling in shoulder pads some metal pipes a bit of plastic and other well things I can give you the list" William said

"Oh no no Mister you are sick you aren't doing any weird things, you rest" Fluttershy said sternly

"Yeah I know its hard for you but just let us mares handle things darling" Rarity said comfortingly

"Well I just thought since Rd can't fly around the house and magic is so low I'd use my kinds knowledge and maybe make an electric water pump with a filter so I can pump water from a nearby source without well having a glass of water and fish or having to bother you to much" William replied

"Electricity?" Twilight looked at William

"Right most things here work on magic uhm.... I could explain it in detail later since I do not know how technological far you ponies are" he replied

"Oh how interesting an information exchange a hole new outlook on existence wait till I report this to the princesses" she said happily

William just laughed and the happy ,hyper Twilight

"Now you stay and rest well I'll have to go home and take care of some animals , can some pony stay here to keep an eye on him?" Fluttershy asked

"Sorry Darling I have a lot of work to do" Rarity replied

"I need to take care of spike and need to reorganise the library and also prepare a letter to the princesses " Twilight said as her ears went backwards out of regret

"I can't stay I only have weather duty in two days but Scoots and I were going to hang out "Rd replied sadly

" Uhm if you want she can come as well I don't mind extra company and well I might know a few things to keep her entertained , I mean not because I'm feeling bucking awful right now that I'd want to come between you having fun with a friend"William replied

"But you aren't feeling well you need to rest" fluttershy said

"I can handle a manticore , so I think I can handle a little filly and Rainbow Dash also don't worry" he replied

Fluttershy smiled but looked a bit confused as to how William knew who was ment with scoots

"That's very kind of you darling most stallions wouldn't like another their foal in their house at all" Rarity replied

"Well I'm no pony but I think I get what you're getting at instincts right?" William replied

"I need to add this to my notes since most stallions don't really attach well to other their foals even if adopted I mean if it's a friend of their own foal they well aren't so instinctive but it's good to hear not all stallions are like that , well not that most stallions can do much considering their" Twilight got interrupted by William

"Just don't tell me right now and well maybe treat me like I am and not according to your status quo since I'm not from around here remember" William said

"Darling we will try our best but we can't help our upbringing" Rarity replied

William smiled "I know and Rainbow the guest room you'll be staying in is there" William pointed to the hallway "7th door to the right"

"Awesome , scoots can meet a though stallion ,just don't try anything buster" Rd said looking at William

"Don't worry ,I'm not like that I just don't wanna be a bother and I'd rather not come in between you and your friend so I thought why not turn it into something nice for the kiddo" he said smiling

"Well we have to go girls and Rainbow don't go to far we don't know how tough William is as a stallion" Twilight replied looking at Rainbow Dash

"Don't you worry Twi , I won't make him have an episode" she replied

"Episode?" William asked

"It's nothing Darling , you rest up first and I'm sure Twilight will explain it later" Rarity replied

"Yes I will as for water ,Rainbow could you maybe get him a water cloud for now until well the things he asked for are made so we can see what he planned I'm rather interested what this stallion is going to do but of course We'd have a mare supervising him" Twilight said

William sighs "mare supervision well I guess that's something I'll have to get used to" he said annoyed

"We are sorry darling its only for your wellbeing" Rarity replied

"It's... Just to make sure you're safe , I'd rather not see you hurt since you already went through a lot" Fluttershy said kindly before giving William a hug

I'm getting hugged by my favorite pony and my third favourite is staying with me i feel well partly lucky since well somethings are off he thought

"Alright later William" Twilight said

"Later Twilight" William said smiling

"Later Darling and oh I must see your clothing next time or maybe even get your measurement's I already got a idea for a beautiful attire for you" Rarity said in her ladylike voice(idk what to call it)

"Well I'd love to see what you can come up with but I got no pony currency" he replied

"No worry darling, it will be a gift" she replied smiling

"Aah a generous and kind Ladylike Mare who isn't stuck up , I must say it's a pleasant change compared to some of my kind" William replied

"Uhm ... I'll go to I need to take care of some animals , don't strain yourself to much please and rest" Fluttershy said in her soft caring voice

"Don't worry Flutters , I know my limits and I'll take it easy" he replied

After that the 3 mares left

"So what are you going to do now?" Rd asked

"A little rest I mean, the magic does make me feel like I've been stampeded over by a bunch of Buffalo's" he said jokingly

"Alright I'll just be chilling here" she replied a bit bored

"Hey if you need to get something for your entertainment or if you want me to keep you Busy I could well get something" he replied

"Nah you probably have a lot of egg head stuff anyway" Rd replied

"Hmm I got some comics up in the attic that I used to read" he replied

"Comics are they awesome ones like Daring Doo" she said hyper

"Looks like the cool Pegasus has a egghead side too" William said smirking

"Hey not my fault it's so awesome you should read a Daring Doo comic" she replied in a slightly embarrassed manner

"Hmm I have some Indiana Jones comics that could keep you Busy and you can have the others as well since I can read them on well something else" he replied causing Rainbow to fly up in happiness rushing to the attic and to grab multiple boxes of comic's down do fast William had no time to respond

William laughs "have fun , I'm hitting the hay if you need food or drinks they are in the fridge " he pointed at the fridge

"Won't it be hot in there since you know no magic?" Rd asked

"You'll have to get used to the no magic but good comfort part, goodnight Dashie" William said before going to bed
