The Butterfly Effect

After discussing the plan with her friends Twilight brought Victor to Dean Cadence’s office and knocked on the door.

“Come in, oh hi T-Twilight...” Cadence answered as Twilight walked in with Victor right behind her.

“Cadence, this is well Victor Light, I know he looks weird and you probably won’t believe me when I say this but Victor here is from an alternate reality, one where his kind lives” Twilight introduced as Victor waved slightly.

“U-uh hi?...So um Victor was it? What brings you here?” Cadence asked with a mixture of curiosity and fright.

Victor explained to Dean Cadence what he is, why he’s in there world, and was wondering if he could enroll in the college that Twilight and her friends were enrolled at.

“So you say you have a PHD in engineering and a Master’s in physics which you were currently working on getting your PHD in?” Cadence asked.

“That is correct” Victor replied.

“Well then...why don’t you show me a formula and I’ll see if it’s Master’s degree level” Cadence suggested with an amused yet smug look on her face.

Victor returned the smug look as he cracked his knuckles before asking if she had a spare white bored he could use.

After levitating a whiteboard and dry-erase marker to him Victor immediately started writing a formula. Twilight’s eyes lit up as she watch Victor’s hand move fast, creating equation after equation. Dean Cadence on the other hand was just as impressed as Twilight.

Once he finished Victor handed the board to Dean Cadence who’s face turned from impressed to amusement.

“This is the formula for toast” Cadence chuckled.

“Yea but you never said what type of formula” Victor replied causing Twilight to giggle.

“Very well then, Victor Light I hereby accept you into Ponylot University” Dean Cadence said as she shook Victor’s hand.

====================================================================================================

“Dude congratulations on being accepted in!” Rainbow Dash said.

“Yea, this calls for a party!” Pinkie Pie shouted as she yanked a large pastel colored canon from her hair.

“What the?” Victor said as he tried to process what he had just seen.

“Trust me I’ve tried to figure it out myself but It didn’t get me anywhere” Twilight whispered.

“H-hey every-eep!” a light yellow Pegasus mare started before noticing Victor and hid behind another humanoid creature who looked to be at least three fourths as tall as Twilight but with lavender and green scales.

“Hey Fluttershy, Spike what brings ya here?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Heya Dash, Fluttershy asked if I wanted to hang out with you guys so I said sure...” Spike started before trailing off as he noticed Victor.

“Oh this is Victor, I know he looks weird but he’s harmless in fact he’s from an alternate reality” Twilight explained which just confused the young drake.

“Uh okay? But um what exactly are you?” Spike asked.

“I’m a human, in fact where I come from the world is populated by humans. But due to a failed calculation I ended up here” Victor sighed.

“Uh alright I guess?” Spike shrugged as he walked away leaving the shy Pegasus mare without a hiding spot.

“It’s okay, Fluttershy was it? I’m harmless I swear” Victor said as he knelt down to make eye contact with the mare.

“H-hi” Fluttershy timidly replied as she took the hand that Victor presented.

“So then darling where are you planning on staying?” Rarity asked.

“Well since all the dorms were filled up there was one other option...” Victor replied.

“Which is sugarcube?” Applejack asked.

“Dean Cadence said that I could live in one of the off-campus houses” Victor explained.

“Oh where, where?” Pinkie Pie shouted in excitement.

“It’s like a couple of blocks away, but it’s near a grocery store” Victor explained.

“Congratulations” Twilight replied.

“Thanks, but there’s still one problem” Victor said with a sigh.

“Which is?” Spike asked.

“Money” Victor sheepishly replied.

“Oh don’t worry darling I’m sure you’ll be able to figure something out” Rarity reassured.

“Yea, don’t give up hope” Twilight added with a smile.

“Thanks” Victor replied.

“No problem darling but we will need to get you some better clothes” Rarity responded.

“Why? What’s wrong wrong with them?” Victor asked as he looked over his clothes.

“It’s just...they’re not matching, not even a hint of style” Rarity replied as she tried to hide an overly dramatic dry heave causing everyone to bust out giggling and laughing.

“R-Rarity I think *snort* their fine” Victor commented.

“Oh on the contrary darling you have no sense of style, besides that lab coat looks like it’s seen better days, tell me when have you last washed it?” Rarity asked now serious.

“Uh like two weeks ago” Victor replied.

“Well then, tomorrow after classes meet me at Carousel Boutique” Rarity said with a wink and a smile.

“Sure?” Victor replied, while not knowing what to expect.

====================================================================================================

Victor had just gotten to his hopefully temporary home which looked to be two stories tall with the first floor being T-shaped while the second floor was L-shaped, when Victor walked in he was greeted to a flight of stairs that undoubtedly led to the second floor, the first door to the right was the kitchen, nothing really special, it was just L-shaped with an island in the middle.

The next part of the house was the living/ dinning room that also held some sliding glass doors to the yard.

“Might as well see what’s upstairs” Victor thought as he decided to ascend the staircase.

Once Victor reached the second floor he noticed there was three doors, two were undoubtedly for the bedrooms, however there was one for the bathroom.

“Perfect” Victor sighed as he walked in and started getting ready for a bath.

As Victor took off his shirt he noticed something on his left shoulder that was defiantly not there before, it looked to be in the shape of a Swallowtail Butterfly, the markings was also similar to the butterfly species but it looked like it was either a scar or a birthmark.

“What the hell” Victor said under his breath as he touched the mysterious shape.

It didn’t burn, or was painful, it was simply there but after all that had happened Victor decided not to question it and went to take off the rest of his clothes before filling up the bathtub and sitting in.

====================================================================================================

After finishing his bath Victor entered one of the bedrooms to see that it was unfurnished. The next other bedroom he entered however was furnished with a twin sized bed off to the corner, next to the bed was a desk that held a laptop, on the opposite wall was a TV that was next to some more sliding glass doors while on the opposite side stood a bookcase what really tied the room together was the square coffee table in the middle that had eight cushions along the side.

Victor turned around to see a dark velvet red collared coat with a sand yellow button up shirt, a black tie, and black dress pants. On the floor by the door was some black dress shoes.

“That must be my uniform”- Victor thought as he stretched before laying down in his bed -“I hope everyone back home is doing alright” Victor thought before turning over to sleep.
