“What?!” Everybody except for Fluttershy shouted, causing me to flinch and cover my ears.

“Ow. That was extremely loud. Why are you shouting?” I asked without realizing that I had just told the happiest, most peace-loving beings in the multiverse that I didn't value my own life. They all looked concerned about my mental health, though it was obvious that Rainbow Dash was more than a little pissed off and Applejack was slightly angry as well.

“How can you not value life?! That's insane!” Rainbow Dash said in a raised tone while flying over to me so we were face to face.

“I never said that I don't value life. I just don't value my own life. If my death meant that someone else would live, I would gladly give up my life. At least I would be remembered for something rather than being forgotten and left behind as an unimportant speck in the sands of time.” I said while cracking my neck and getting out of the bed, allowing our size difference to really set in as they only reached my waist while standing on the ground normally. Dash still seemed rather angry but Applejack intervened before she could say anything else.

“That's enough Rainbow. Joseph don’t seem like the type that listens to words.” Applejack said before pulling Dash away from me by her tail. I just chuckled before running a hand through my hair.

“If we’re quite done talking about my unstable mental state, can we get out of here? I’d like to move around a bit before you have me talk to whoever runs your government. And I’m just assuming that that's what you plan to do since that's what some people would do back where I come from.” I said before looking out of the hospital room window and grinning as I saw as small ledge just underneath the window that would be perfect for me to parkour off of. Twilight snapped out of her concern and smiled.

“Yes. Nurse Redheart says that you're good to go, though we shou-” Twilight was saying before I opened the window, stepped onto the ledge and hopped down before landing with a roll so it would hurt less. I could hear worried shouts from behind me and chuckled before leaning against the wall. Dash had been the first one outside since she could fly while Twilight and the others ran outside. They weren't too happy about me jumping out of a window, but I just shrugged it off. I can do what I want with my life so what they thought about my way of living didn't matter to me.

Twilight had me go back inside and properly sign out with Nurse Redheart before we started making our way to Twilight's house since, surprise surprise, she summoned me while trying a summoning spell that she read in a book and it apparently brought my bed as well. When I heard that my bed came with me a grin spread across my face, since they most likely hadn't discovered my duffel bags that I had actually hidden inside of my bed frame in case I ever needed to quickly leave my house. Thank you past me for being prepared for anything that you thought could happen.

When we arrived at Twilight's house, we entered to find that the lights were off causing me to smirk as Twilight turned the lights on only for us to be greeted by everypony in Ponyville. Pinkie quickly hopped up to me while smiling.

“So Joseph were ya surprised? Huh? Were ya? Were ya?” Pinkie asked excitedly as I grinned before leaning forward so my face was closer to hers.

“Nope! I know about a being similar to you when it comes to inexplicable abilities, so I kinda expected it when ya ran off. Not to mention the fact that I’m always thinking about all of the possibilities for what could happen.” I said while booping Pinkie on her nose and standing up straight again. Everybody, except for Pinkie, went rigid when I said that I wasn't surprised. Pinkie instead just giggled when I booped her nose.

“I know that! We both know the script after all!” Pinkie said happily before hopping away leaving me laughing as she broke the fourth wall, confirming that the possibility of me being in a story was true. I always did wonder how others would react to my odd behavior if they were to read a biography of my life. Everybody else joined in on my laughter when Pinkie had shown that she was okay. Obviously I had quite a few ponies to talk to including the fan favorites Lyra Heartstrings, Bon Bon AKA Sweetie Drops, Derpy and Time Turner AKA Doctor Whooves.

All in all I enjoyed the party to an extent and I was even able to impress some ponies with my voice impressions and accents. Pinkie loved my Joker impression, which I had based off of Mark Hamill's Joker. Rarity loved my French accent, especially when I threw in some actual French words just to be fancier. Applejack liked my southern accent which I based off of a combination of stereotypes and actual southern accents. Fluttershy quite enjoyed my ability to change how my voice sounds especially when I made myself sound like a girl, though it was rather difficult since my voice isn't anywhere near that high anymore. Twilight was obviously more interested in asking me questions about where I'm from and what my universe is like. During the party I kept being drawn to the unicorns using magic and several questions slowly began to fester in my head.

'If I'm in a world of magic does that mean I could learn magic? How did humans know about magic and these fantastical creatures if magic doesn't exist in my universe? Did it exist at one point and end up running out?'

I couldn't get these thoughts out of my head, so I decided to go downstairs to the basement where Twilight said my bed was. I checked the bedframe to make sure that my three duffel bags were still there, and sure enough they were. I grinned before covering the hole back up with my mattress and laying on my bed.

Today had been very unexpected at first, but it turned out rather well despite the townsponies wasting their precious time just to welcome me to Ponyville. They're much too caring for their own good.

Author's Note

No Joseph cannot see past the 4th wall, he simply knows that it exists. He doesn't know what will happen he just thinks of everything that could happen and tries his best to plan around those possibilities. He's a very paranoid person and is the kind of person that would have a zombie apocalypse plan just because there is a 0.001% chance of it actually happening.

This chapter may get a rewrite in the future, but for now it will do.
