So I now live in a land of talking rainbow ponies, oh well,

I just got home from work, it was a long day, so I decide to go to bed early,

Next morning I wake up in a tree house, and i’m apparently living with a sentient purple horse, oh and she talks, wonderful!

Did she say MAGIC!?

The unicorn has explained to me that I’m on the planet Equus, Equestria, and that I somehow appeared on her floor, she also told me that the entire town’s residents are ponies, i’m still more than a A little shocked, but at least I have something to work with,

And now comes the bad part, she’s taking me to her lab for scientific research, just great

The lab is darker than the other parts of the library, it’s filled with machinery, research tables, vials, and potion bottles, both empty and full, in all, it’s very intriguing,

I can’t look around for very long before Twilight is hooking me up to a machine, I wait patiently in my seat as she collects the scientific readings spilling out of her contraption, “ok, so you may be from another universe, definitely another world, no magical properties, but a similar intelligence level to the average pony.”

“Hold on a sec, magical properties?” I ask

The Twilight’s eyes widen “wait you don’t have magic?” She asks

I shake my head, surprisingly Twilight lets out a loud ‘SQUEEEEE’ before taking a few deep breaths “heh, sorry it’s just” Twilight Squees again tapping her hooves excitedly “here on Equus there’s magic in almost everything, especially in unicorns and other magical beings, there’s a lot to show you.”

It takes me a while to process this info, meanwhile thoughts circle my head, how can magic be real? is this a trick? Why me? Lemme guess there’s flying horses too?.

I’m not sure how, but one word manages to escape my lips, ”how?”

The tour: part 1

Twilight and spike are taking me on a tour, kinda exited, kinda scared, mostly curious, they told me our first stop was a place called Sugar Cube Corner the town’s bakery, it sounds nice enough, but they told me to be prepared for anything,

“So why’d you tell me to be prepared?” I ask

“You’ll see” Spike replies, a visible smirk on his face, yup add ‘worry’ to the emotions list,

After some walking, we arrive at a place that looks almost like a weird gingerbread house that’s been splattered with chocolate “here we are,” Twilight says merrily,

i follow her into the small bakery, eyeing the decor as I pass I notice that there’s several tables scattered about, columns on the walls painted to resemble peppermint, a pink counter with an even pinker pony behind it, ponies seem to give me curious or confused glances as I walk, I try my hardest to act friendly,

I’m taken by surprise when the pony at the counter rushes up to me, a sincere and friendly smile like no other on her face, “Hi, I’ve never seen a pony like you before, I’m Pinkie Pie, but my friends call me Pinkie! What’s your name?” The pink pony says cheerfully,

“I’m... Ella.” I say simply, the pink pony’s smile grows brighter

“Cool! Ella Mc Ellerson!” Pinkie Pie giggles “We’re gonna be best friends!” I’m taken aback by this, but have no time to speak before the pink pony gasps “ohmygoshomygoshomygosh!” Pinkie Pie bounces, and confetti seems to come out of knowhere “I just had the best idea ever! A PARTY!” She announces

“Ok Pinkie, we really should be going,” Twilight forcibly pulls me out of the bakery before speaking “Heheh, maybe we should have told you about that...”

“YA THINK!?” I yell, Spike snorts, “Oh shut up!” Is all I can say “And Twilight, is she actually gonna throw a party?” I ask, Twilight nods better prepare for THAT,

“ON WITH THE TOUR” Spike yells

Carousel Boutique, that’s apparently where we’re going, “Alright, So a pony named Rarity lives here, I’m letting you know, she’s a tad over dramatic and can get a bit... carried away” Twilight says,

“Well alright then, sure wish you’d warned me about last time...” I say, a bit annoyed,

“Yeah, I know” Twilight replies “And...” Twilight shifts nervously “If you don’t mind me asking...” Twilight paws at the ground with her hoof, “What exactly... are you?” She finally says, I can tell she doesn’t like what she’s saying but I’m not really bothered by it,

“Is that all? I’m a human, from earth, not much to it” I say, she nods, clearly relieved that I didn’t take the question personal

“Welp, we’re here” Spike says, the Boutique is light blue, with pink and purple accents, the roof resembles a Carousel, and there’s oval windows at the front,

Before long, I’m walking into the shop, the foyer has a light colour scheme, with a checkers pattern floor, and there’s several doors,

“Rarity!” Twilight calls

“Just a moment Darling, I will be there in a jiffy!” Says a British voice from upstairs, before long, an Ivory mare with a curly violet mane and sapphire eyes is walking down the steps

“Ah, Twilight, it’s good to see yo-“ Rarity pauses and turns to look at me, she seems a bit confused but continues, “Oh, you brought... guests, well that’s... good” she seems unsure of the words she’s saying, but forces a smile anyway,

“Yes, Rarity, this is Ella, Ella this is my friend Rarity” Twilight says nervously,

“Hi.” Rarity says flatly,

“Heheh, uh, hi.” I say a bit nervous,

“Well then Er, Ella, A pleasure to meet you” Rarity says, before sticking her hoof out to me, I shake the offered hoof before going into silence “Ella, darling, would you excuse Twilight and I for a moment?” I nod before Rarity starts dragging Twilight in her magic toward the corner of the room

“Twilight, who exactly is she?” Rarity asks

“Eh, she’s an alien, no big deal”

“Ah well that settles it” Rarity says calmly, before she and Twilight walk back into the foyer

“Oh you’re back” I say

“Hello again” Rarity says much more calmly than before “Why don’t I show you some of my outfits?” She asks

“Well alright then” I say, before following her to a mannequin housing a short purple skirt, and small silver shoes, I was shown many more outfits that day, dresses, tuxedos, shirts, all modelled for horses, but I have to say, the craftsmanship is good.

Sorry about the hiatus, I’m currently suffering from severe writer’s block so I hope you’ll be patient.

Wake up horse

Wood...

I felt wood under my back, I open my eyes to be quite surprised by my surroundings,

I’m lying on a cherry brown wood floor, with a table in the centre of the room, atop that table I see a wooden bust of a horse head, the walls are lined with tall crevices serving the purpose of bookshelves, there’s a spiralling staircase behind me leading up to a room, I can’t see inside due to the distance, but I know I’ve never been here before,

I’m drawn out of my thoughts by the sound of footsteps, I look up to see a lavender horse coming down the stairs, only she’s very small, and her snout is abnormally short, (so confused...)

“Oh you’re awake” the horse says it’s only then I realize she has a horn, what is going on? I’m in front of a freaking unicorn, still I decide to respond

“Uh... hi there Miss... uh, unicorn” I say as I wiggle my hand slightly, a desperate attempt at a wave, still I shove that thought aside as the lavender unicorn and I are pushed into silence,

Luckily the unicorn breaks the silence by speaking “So, um, my name is Twilight Sparkle, uh, what’s yours?”

“I’m... Ella...” I say as the unicorn goes farther down the steps towards me, “so, if you don’t mind me asking... where’s your owner?”

“Owner?” Twilight says as she cocks her head to the side “what do you mean, i’m A full grown mare!”

I step back at this, I really hope this is just the expired milk...

Author's Note

This is my first story, so the characters are probably a bit OOC, but i hope you can enjoy it, constructive criticism is appreciated, but I will probably not get around to fixing it for quite some time.

Meet Spike

I eventually got over my magic freak out, somehow, and now Twilight says I’m being introduced to someone, I don’t know what to expect, and I’m a little uneasy about meeting another one of these horses, but I carry on,

I’m in front of a bedroom door, shifting nervously, “It’ll be alright, he’s one of the friendliest people I know” with this reassurance, I knock on the door, only to here a small grunt from inside, “Twilight, what did I say about waking me up?” This was a childlike slightly raspy voice that came from behind the door,

“Sorry Spike, but we have an... interesting visitor i’d really like you to meet” Twilight replies

The other voice, which I now know as Spike, let’s out another tired grunt, before replying, “oh alright” he says, quite annoyed by the disturbance,

To my surprise, the one that opens the door is not a pony, it’s a small lizard - like animal with colourful green spikes, dagger pupils, and little wings on it’s back, in other words, it’s a small dragon.

Th creature seems to be staring at me with wide eyes, it takes me only a moment to realise i’m staring back,

“Uh, sorry” me and the dragon say in unison “that was wierd” we both say again “MAKE IT STOP!” We both yell,

I grunt so does the dragon, we both start laughing, before I finally speak “so, the name’s Ella, I assume you’re Spike?” I say, the dragon nods, I nod too, “So what do you like to do Spike?”

He shrugs and says, “I dunno, play hoof ball, help save the world, play O&O”

“Riiiight... “ I say gonna have to learn pony customs... I think
