Life never really goes how we expect. It's a lesson we all learn in time, favorably or not. For Caden, waking up in Equestria is one of many twists his life has taken down an unexpected road. As he tries to unravel how he arrived there, he'll meet others whose lives have also twisted in ways they didn't expect or hope. A journey awaits that features not only new faces but many old and familiar ones from the MLP FiM universe.

Note: There is no Equestria Girls in this universe. That will probably answer a lot of questions ahead of time. :)

This is my first fanfic! Please, please PLEASE leave constructive criticism. It's the only way I can learn and improve. I hope you all find the story entertaining!

Many many MANY thanks to a dear personal friend for doing the editing on this.
