Ugh finally I’m here this should be good. I thought as I payed the cab for driving me to comic con. Have to say this will be fun. As I walked up to the entrance and scanned my pass in. Oh I know what you're probably thinking who the hell is this shit head and why should I care? Well I’m John mercer, why I don’t know could be my gunmetal grey irises or my not good nor evil lifestyle, Meh I don’t care, I’m six foot even and two hundred and fifty pounds most of which is in decent muscle mass. I have mud brown hair and pale skin, I blame my Irish heritage on that last bit, I’m here at comic con dressed as my favorite Star Wars legends character type the grey force users. With my earned mandalorian armor and grey cloak I look intimidating. Especially with my revan like mando helmet with purple red and blue highlights and my belts and holsters for my various tools and sabers as well as guns, shame all my shit got stolen at the airport. Oh well such is life.

A few hours have passed and it’s been grand met others who were dressed as their greys had fun with a mock greys vs Jedi and sith. And meet mark hamill he liked the idea I had and got to talk with him about his other works as well, truth be told he is awesome, although he did basically point out that I didn’t have any gear, to which I told him the airport got it stolen. This is great walking around taking pictures and having fun.

With the daze I was in I failed to notice the person in front of me till they run into me. The impact caused me to stagger but the worst was the twelve year old little girl who fell and broke the glass figure she was holding. Seeing this made me frown as it was surprisingly a mlp twilicorn figure. Once she saw that she looked down and started to sniff and tear up. Speaking calmly I crouched down.

“ hey are you hurt or anything?” I asked my voice muffled and deepened by the helmet I had on.

She looked up at me with tears nodding her head but then looked to the now broken collectible. Looking back up she points to a patch that shows she is mute but has a dry erase board. Quickly grabbing it she writes

I was getting that for my sister she loves the show I was rushing to find my mommy and wasn’t paying attention to where I was.

Looking at that made me sad...hey just because I’m a ass part of the time doesn’t mean I am all the time.

“Oh well that stinks where did you buy it from?”I asked looking around for any booths nearby.

Quickly erasing her previous message she scribbles down a new one. They are back this way I was eager to get it for my sister but got lost when a large crowd cut me off from my mommy.

Looking at my wallet I not I only have a fifty left but know I have plenty on my bank card. I sigh and standing up I offer her a hand up she takes it and quickly gets back to her feet looking around I notice a security guard and a woman hurriedly heading towards us. The little girl curious looked where I’m looking and smiles as she runes toward her mom.

The woman dropped to her knees and hugs the girl as the security guard walked over to talk.

“Evening sir thank you for finding her. We have been looking and were beginning to fear the worst.” He said as I pulled my helmet off.

“No problem she kind of run into me.” I reply as the woman and child come over.

“Thank you sir I’ve been looking all over for her, where was she if you don’t mind?” She asked as the girl frowns looking back at the shattered glass.

“Well she was rushing to find you when she bumped into me unfortunately the little figure she was holding didn’t fair as well as she did” I said motioning to the glass pile.

“Oh dear that was meant for her sister, oh Anna, Lilly will be heart broken.” She says as she looks to the little girl who now has started to cry.

The security guard who until now looks uncomfortable coughs and says. “I’m sorry about your item it is unfortunate that it was broke. Seeing that your child has been found I must be going. Have a good day.” As he leaves he grabs his radio and leets the rest know the girl was found.

In my head I’m torn I was gonna use that for a meal tonight but that girls face that really must have meant a lot to her sister….. well shit guess I can dip into my bank cash.

“Hey do you know where it was you bought that?” I ask getting the mothers attention.

“Oh sir you don’t have to well just have to get something else.” She said as she goes to leave.

“Hey I feel bad had I not been daydreaming I would have warned her before she bumped into me and it ended up broke. Besides she looks so down please let’s just go and look ok.” I reply giving my most sincere tone.

“Oh ok but they aren’t cheep.” She says as the little girl looked up to me with a hopeful smile, damn if that look doesn’t get me every single time.

As we move on the woman who I learned was named Marie was here because her oldest who was sixteen was in the hospital because of a accident on her way to school and was originally going to come with but due to her getting paralyzed she couldn’t. The figure was meant to be Anna’s get well soon gift. Soon we found the booth and a soon as I saw the price I winced but I said I would and well I did but ouch two hundred bucks.

The person at the booth smiled as he handed the figure to Marie as Anna hopped up and down happily. Marie thanked me and as Anna hugged me with my nice deed done the guy manning the booth compliments me.

“That was real nice of you to do. Don’t see it much anymore.”

“Yeah well Im nice sometimes,have a good one.” I said as I headed off to continue my looking.

A few minutes later someone taps me on the shoulder to get my attention. Turning I find a person decked out in mando armor.

“Can I help you?” I ask confused as to why this person was needing my attention.

“I saw what you did for the girl. That was pretty nice… hey if your interested there is a guy who sells all sorts of gizmos and props. I feel like you deserve something for your actions.” He said pointing at a rather odd looking tent.

“Um sure I guess...let’s go.” I say equally curious and cautious.

As we enter I’m amazed at what I see all manner of different items gun replicas swords even mini ship stands from all sorts of science fiction worlds. The guy manning this booth was dressed as the merchant from one of the resident evil games. As he looked on he first looks from me to the mando next to me.

“So this is your pick.” He says as his eyes narrow at me.

“Yeah guy bought a glass figure after a little girl broke hers I think he deserves it.” The mando says leaning against the counter.

“Um ok what is going on? I’m kind of confused.” I say getting their attention.

“Yes well have you ever heard of a displaced?” The mando asked

“A little I’ve read stories about it… wait am I being displaced?” I ask stepping back

“If you want my friend here is capable of doing a lot you just so happened to catch my attention. Of course do you know where we will send you?” The mando says scratching their gauntleted finger against the chest plate.

“A friend said they usually see them sent to some dimension whose inhabitants are from the show my little pony.” I say cautiously.

“Bingo so what would you like before we send you off of course your basic stuff guns sabers parts and crystals. Anything else.” The mando says.

“Well....ok, I’ll bite, a ship and an army of droids ,and, or clones, to run it would be useful. With basically all the machines and tools to make more and build what I need.” I said showing him a picture of my ideal ship which is basically an ssd with mon cal wings and engines with four lucrehulk ships fused with it and two star destroyers and two venators docked to it as well as several varieties of smaller ships such as frigates dreadnaughts and cruisers.

“Wow you don’t do light do you?” The merchant said as he saw the ship.

“Pays to has everything you might need. Of course the knowledge for the various force abilities, on data banks, along with the various schematics and and fabrication tech to make materials for what I need.....oh and if it isn’t too much could I have a mp3 with all the music from here I like certain songs and it helps me relax.” I said looking at the sabers.

“Generally that is a given although the mp3 isn’t...I think we can slip that in. Of course you will have to learn how to use all of the powers we won’t send you in with deus ex powers right off the bat, the basics will do for now. Now with that do you want canon equestria or not.?” The mando said as weird dust flew into a kylo ren style lightsaber hilt.

“Non canon, I mean yea let the events happen but not as they were in the show.” I said as I stared mesmerized at the hilt .

“Alright well grab the hilt and you’ll be off you’ll end up on the bridge of you massive ship on route to Equis. Oh and have fun.” he said as he hands me a communication remote.

Picking up the saber I ignite the blade as a gray saber blade erupts from the hilt standing at a long swords length. So amazed by the sight I don’t even register as I fall through a portal and black out.
