Things I wish I had not Seen... (Doug's POV)
A Great Surprise Gone Sour
After a dubstep party going awry, Doug finds himself awake in Equestria with his brony buddy, Zach. Except... their favorite pony is not who they thought she was. This one-shot is the story of what happened that day.
(We might continue this, but it’ll probably be without the other, because syncing this all was a pain in the plot. -Jaiden)
“Dude, put your drink down and get up there! Don't just hang back!” Tristyn called ahead as he began to walk up to the stage. I sighed and put my Monster down and reluctantly joined him.
“If I make a fool of myself, you're going down with me.” I shot back. He just smiled and went back to headbanging. After the song “Bang-A-Rang” by Skrillex ended, I was already panting. I got off the stage and went back to the counter to see that my Monster was gone. I couldn't find it anywhere. “There goes two dollars out of my wallet for nothing...” I decided to just head back to the stage and continue going crazy.
A few more songs was all it took for me to loosen up, at the cost of me being hot, sweaty, and worn out. I went back to the counter to buy some water, when I saw my Monster back where it belonged. At this time, I wasn't really thinking, so I just simply resolved the mystery with the idea that maybe I didn't look hard enough. I took a few gulps of the cool Monster, and sighed in relief. I put it down and moved to rejoin Tristyn on the stage, but suddenly found myself lying face-first on the floor. “Ow.”
I rolled over and opened my eyes. That didn't accomplish much, however, as my vision was blurred to hell. I tried mouthing a word close to 'help', but nothing came out. I raised my hand off the ground in attempt to grab onto something, but even that took an immense amount of effort. I let it rest on the floor as I tried blinking a few times to clear my vision, all attempts however were in vain. I felt tired simply from the dancing, and now something else was making me even more sleepy. I couldn't really put my finger on it, as my hand was laying unresponsive on my stomach. The last sounds that my brain registered was the loud dubstep playing the background and my name being called by a familiar voice. Then... Everything went silent and my vision went blank... And I drifted to sleep.
I woke up with a mouth full of dirt. Problems I have with this? I'm probably outside. Second problem I have with this, I'm apparently lying face-first in the ground. Third problem I have with this, I can't speak or see because my face is getting a mouthful of dirt. I rolled over onto my back, spat out any dirt that nested itself in my mouth, and opened my eyes to the blinding sun. That was a bad idea. The sudden change to the lighting burned my eyes for a couple of seconds, causing me to cover my eyes in reflex. After giving myself a moment to recover, I reopened them. To say I was shocked was an understatement. I was surrounded by an open field, basking in the sunlight. I looked up to see the sun literally right above me. I guessed it was right around noon. I decided it was time that I sat up and surveyed my surroundings. To the right of me, there was a forest of vast proportions. To the left of me, I saw what looked to me like a town. Now, usually if you see a small town or village around the country-side, you would see dull looking buildings, the occasional car, and maybe a barn. That's my view on that anyways. Now, what I see right now is completely opposite from what I'm used to. Everything was colorful. There seemed to be plenty of cottages and small homes. Off in the distance, I could see a large red barn. Not a dull red, but a shining red. Outside I could see a few figures milling about, probably going about their daily business of chores.
I stood up, dusted myself off, and tried to recollect the events prior to me ending up here. I was at a dubstep rave party with my friend, Tristyn. They gave us a free Monster on the way in. I drank it, and bought another one. I put it back on the counter and went back to dancing... Came back to find it missing, so I went back to the stage. Came back later to find it had reappeared... Assumed it was just my mind screwing with me earlier, and happily drank some of it. That's... All I can seem to remember. Now... I'm here, in an open field... in the middle of nowhere. "Well, fuck."
I decided it best to head into the nearest town to ask for directions, or more importantly, ask where the heck I am. And so, I began my trek towards this unknown town. About twenty minutes into it, I had reached my destination. I was standing right outside a... tree house? The heck? That isn't normal. I surveyed around a bit more and noticed something off... very off. I was expecting to see normal people, you know. Humans. Instead, I saw creatures milling about normally like people. Not just creatures. Ponies. Not just regular ponies, no. I'm talking cartoon ponies. Ponies that can talk, and act just like humans. This all seemed strikingly similar to my favorite show...
I froze, realizing what town I had just entered blindly. I'm in Equestria, and more specifically, right outside of Ponyville. Seriously? Not that I have a problem with this, but how in the hell did I get here? Am I currently high off my ass? I considered punching myself in the groin. How good was the idea? Well, I know I'm not hallucinating, because I just felt immense pain that I haven't felt in years. After rolling around on the ground in pain for a few minutes, I stood up slowly in pain. Again, I dusted myself off and tried to regain my train of thought.
“Okay, so... I'm in Equestria... and I'm in Ponyville... BEST. DAY. EVER!” I shouted out loud to no one in particular. I can hang with Twilight, and Pinkie can give me a welcome party! I can hang out with all of the ponies and even find some of the background ponies like Doctor Whooves and Derpy!
Wait wait wait... Okay. Calm down, Doug. They aren't going to react kindly to a human just waltzing up to them and giving them a hug. Nope. Okay... Best bet would be to talk to Twilight, she might have been behind this whole mess, knowing her. I walked up to the front door of the tree house and knocked. For some reason, even though I was expecting it, I was still surprised to see Twilight Sparkle standing there.
“The library is closed... temporarily...” She went wide-eyed, but she wasn't as shocked as I thought she'd be. She calmed down and turned back towards the staircase, “Hey! There's another one of you!”
I practically skipped a heartbeat when I heard that. Another one of you? Is she saying that there is another human? Holy crap.
I heard a voice come from upstairs,“What do you mean there's another one of me?”
“I mean there's another human!”
“What? Really? Hold on, I'll be down in a minute!”
“Uh... Okay!” I turned back to Twilight, “I should probably come in and stay low, huh?”
“Yea... That would probably be best, heheh...” She looked nervous, I guess it's just from us being freaky bi-pedals and such.
I walked in and surveyed the room. As expected, it contained several books lined up in shelves. All of them were well-organized and seemed to be cleaned on a daily basis. Other things included the kitchen and there happened to be a comfy couch beside me. I decided to sit down and wait for this human to appear. “Guess I'll be sharing my dreamworld with another human, I wonder if it is someone I know?” I thought aloud.
As if on cue, the human stood on the balcony in camouflage shorts and a Metallica fan t-shirt with a skull that was sporting wings. I finally scanned his face and nearly flipped a hand basket.
The human looked down at me and practically had the same reaction. “Doug?”
“Zach...?”
“You two know each other?” Twilight piped up, interrupting both our trails of thoughts.
“Y-yeah... Online, I mean... Still. I know him pretty well.”
“Online?”
I facepalmed and so did Zach. “Online is sort of... A method of communicating with other people around the world. Extremely popular.”
“Interesting... So... How did you guys meet?”
“"Well..... Basically Doug's friend Kyle wanted me to voice act for him so I met his friend called Isaac after that, then I met Doug. Sounds complicated but yeah."
“Ookay... Right. Now that we're done with the introductions... What say we get onto something... else?” She asked while batting her eyes seductively.
I quickly answered, "Can we... Have a moment?"
She rolled her eyes, "Fine. But not too long!"
Zach jumped off of his mini-balcony and joined me. Before I could say anything though, Zach whispered to me, “She's in Heat, I could... Smell her.”
“You know when a mare is in heat?”
Before he could answer the incredibly awkward question, Twilight had apparently grown tired of waiting and had decided to pounce me. Before I knew what was going on, I was on the ground, pinned under Twilight in an... awkward way.
“Oof!” I gasped as the air was knocked out of me. “Twilight, what the heck are you doing?”
“Having a little fun...” She giggled.
“Oh dear... Zach? A little help here?” He had already grabbed hold of Twilight's horn and started to rub.
“What're you- Oh... Wow... That's actually working?”
“I've read too many... Detailed fics...”
“Wow, dude.” I scooted myself out from under her. “Let's get out of here, then?”
Zach nodded. Twilight let out a moan then collapsed to the floor “Book it.”
We run out of the tree house and traveled a good distance away from Twilight. “She won't be like that for long, what can we do now?” He looked to our right and saw the Mayor's office.
"Mayor Mare's office?"
I nodded, “Good idea, she should be experienced with things like this.” So, we ran to the Town Hall and entered through the front double-doors. There was a desk in the main room with a pony behind, but she wasn't the mayor, but probably the secretary.
She happened to be looking down at a document at the time, and didn't notice us come in.
“Uh... Zach, you might want to handle this one... I don't do well when I have to be social...”
He nodded, “Alright.” He cleared his throat, “Excuse me, can we please see the mayor?” She looked up and... froze. After a few seconds of all of us staring at each other, she looked in a book and finally nodded. We looked to our left and saw a lone staircase. Deciding that was the way to the mayor, we ascended. As we continued however, a green portal appeared on the wall beside Zach. As it sucked him in, the only words that he could seem to get out was “Help!”
As I stood there dumbstruck, the only thoughts that were cruising inside my head was, “The fuck?”
“Fuck.” Alright, pull yourself together, Doug. Zach will be fine... He's just probably getting raped by Twilight, not a big deal... Aw shit! As I took a deep breath to calm myself down, my thoughts returned to Mayor Mare. Hopefully, she would be able to fix all of this. I finished the rest of the stairs and knocked on her door.
A muffled “Come in,” replied from the other side. I opened the door to see Mayor Mare herself writing something on a clipboard. “H-hello, ma'am?” She put down her clipboard and looked up. However, instead of locking up like her secretary, she simply raised an eyebrow. “Uh... What are you?”
“Uh'm... Well, thanks for not flipping out... Heh.” She seemed unamused by this remark. I cleared my throat and continued, “Anyways, I'm a human... That's not important right now... You know Twilight Sparkle, right?” She nodded. “She's... uhm... gone into heat, apparently... And she has my friend.”
She looks at you with an unreadable face, “Ah, yes. Twilight... She hasn't found a coltfriend, yet... So, I'm sorry, but I really can't help you. But I'll say it now: Everypony goes into heat this time of year, so be careful.”
I stared at her blankly, “So... You can't help us?” She shook her head. I felt growing anger at the unhelpful answers I was getting, “Aren't you afraid of the possible sexual interaction between different species? We're both human!”
She looked taken aback from my outburst, but regained her composure quickly. “I would assist you, but as you can clearly see,” she points to the mass of paperwork to the right of her. “I am very busy.”
I sighed in frustration, then another idea came to mind. “Would it be possible for me to write a letter to Princess Celestia? I'm sure she would be a bit more concerned with her prized student's well-being...”
“How would you know of her role under the Princess...?” I froze, I hadn't expected that.
“Ehm... She told me?” I attempted meekly. “Why would she tell someone that she doesn't even know, let a lone a different species?”
Gah... Why must she keep changing the topic? I don't want to wipe out time by mentioning MLP from our world. That, would be catastrophic as fuck. “She wanted to learn more about my species, and felt it would be best to not keep secrets from me.”
She seemed to accept that answer, but still looked wary of me. “Right... Anyways, Princess Celestia is out of the country on a diplomatic visit to the Zebrasian plains. No messages will be received till after she returns. Listen, I would do something, but I'm stuck here.” Once again pointing to the mass of paperwork near her.
“You're kidding me... This is bloody inconvenient. Do you know anyo-anypony that could help me?”
She rubbed her forehead for a moment in frustration. “Honestly, I don't know. The more time you spend here, the more time your friend has to endure whatever Twilight might be doing to him.”
I sighed, “Fine... Thanks for the talk, I guess...” I walked back down the stairs and into the lobby. I saw the secretary, who seemed to still be apprehensive of me. She noticed Zach wasn't with me and apparently got curious. “Where's the other thing that you were with?”
I shot her a look at what she had called him which caused her to shrink back down. “Unicorn mares in heat and portals. Anything else you want to ask?” She shook her head in fear. “Right, I'm off to save my friend from being brutally violated, have a nice day.” I walked out of the Town Hall and made way for Twilight's Treehouse.
“Mares...”
Fifteen minutes later, I arrived at Twilight's tree house. I tried the door, and it appeared to be unlocked. I rushed inside to see no one in the living room. I heard moans coming from upstairs, and made my way up there. What I saw... Well... Should not be seen. Ever. Twilight was on top of Zach... wrecking his virginity. Okay, I'm done, this ends here! I charged at Twilight, wrapping my arms around her into a bear hug. Quickly, I grabbed hold of her horn. She stops talking and her face scrunches up in... whatever she's feeling.
I look back at Zach, who's still lying on the ground. “Shit... Zach, are you alright? How's your virginity doing?” No response... I turn back to Twilight, just in time to hear her blood-curdling scream. On instinct, I let go of her horn, in fear that I might be causing permanent damage.
Twilight stopped screaming and was breathing heavily. “Twilight? Are you oka-Whoooa!” The next thing I know I was surrounded by a green aura, and am now floating in mid-air.
“Always fool the sympathizer...” She chuckled at my remark. “Fool. Never let your guard down.” Okay, that does not sound like Twilight at all. Something is not right here.
“Yo, Zach! How are you doin' back there?” I said, unable to face him behind me. Still no response. Ugh... Time for Plan B, time to toy with her mind.
“Twilight, do you really think Celestia would smile upon this...?”
“Not if she doesn't know you exist. How do you know about Celestia?”
Okay, time to mind-fuck her completely... And possibly break time. This is going to be fun. “I'm not from this world. You're Twilight Sparkle, and I know you're not usually like this. You're not that kind of pony. Somepony brought me here against my will. I'm all glad and happy about that, because this is a very happy place compared to my original world. But, I wasn't expecting this! You're trying to rape my friend! I will not let that happen!”
She stopped in place for a minute or two, trying to take in what she had just heard. She regained her composure, however, and began laughing. “I... know I'm not myself... You try being in heat. Anyway, your friend seems to enjoy it.”
“You hypnotized him or something, he's out of his control. You have magic. Of course he might enjoy it, it's called SEXUAL STIMULATION!”
She frowns at the outburst, and glares at me. “Look at him.” She rotated me with her spell so that I was facing Zach. His irises seem to be fading from purple to green, then back again. It looped over and over again. “See? Only partially controlled, I only enhanced his senses.”
“... Some friend you are.” I looked away.
“Aww, don't blame him, he only enjoyed the ride.” She looked at me with those bedroom eyes. Oh hell no.
“I wasn't talking about him, I was talking about you.” I glared at her.
Twilight scoffed, “I don't even know what you two are. Can't be friends wit-” Suddenly, Zach shot up, coughing. He looked around and saw me being held with a green aura. “Chrys-” was all he could get out before he fainted again.
“Chrys...?” I gave myself another look around... and then at Twilight's horn... then everything hit me like a shit ton of bricks on my head. “C-Chrysalis...?” She took a step back.
“H-how do you know who I am, filthy human?!” She shot back, angry that she could no longer play her games with us.
“You never masked your damn magic color. That's why. That, and I know who the hell you are, your invasion on Canterlot. Everything.”
It looked like she was taking a mind-fuck storm to her brain. “How...?”
“Television, my dear Watson... Television.”
She shook her head, and regained her composure. “Enough of this nonsense! I've had enough of these games! You will surrender your body to me!”
Oh, hell no. I'm saving my body for someone special back home, damn it. She placed her hoof on my crotch and began to whisper to me and began to blink seductively. “I bet someone as... Handsome as you wants something like your friend got? Hmmm...?” Okay, sensitive spot touched. Fuck this. Not happening.
Her horn lit up, but nothing happened. She frowns, but instead began to push me towards the bed. I've had just about enough of this.
“Enough.” She stops at this and looks at me curiously, waiting for me to continue. After a few seconds, she shrugs and licks her lips, and pushes me onto the bed. As I fell back, my foot came into contact with her jaw, knocking her back a few feet. I got back up, and stated angrily, “I have someone I love back home, and I will not allow you, Chrysalis, to take my own FUCKING virginity away from me. Kay? Have a nice FUCKING day.”
I turned back to Zach, who had regained consciousness again. I grabbed his shoulder and began walking towards the stairs. Something, however, held me in place. I looked back and saw that his irises were again, green. He was smiling, too. Something cracked inside of me, then. I punched him square in the face, knocking him backwards onto the floor. Chrysalis recovered and teleported above Zach. She casted a spell, knocking me backwards. Unable to keep my footing, I tripped on a book that was lying on the ground, and hit my head on the edge of a shelf, knocking me out cold...
…
…
…
“Ugh...” I groaned, trying to lift my head to see where I was. Unfortunately, my eyes felt like they were glued shut. After a few seconds, I opened them slowly. My vision, however, was still blurry as hell. After a few minutes of trying to clear my vision through repeated blinking, I was able to see Chrysalis... Going at it with Zach on the bed. Egh... I have to stop this. I tried to get up, but found that my wrists were restrained to the bed that I was on. Of course.
I tried to yank free of the magical shackles, but the attempts were futile. Shortly afterwords, Chrysalis finished with a loud moan. Sexy. Wait what? Aww... Crap. She turned to me with a flushed face. “Having a hard time waking up, I see... Maybe I can assist with that?” She put on a smug grin.
I went wide-eyed, “Nope! Nope! Nope!”
“Oh, shut up. You'll enjoy it.” Before I could refuse more verbally, she created a magical gag that she tied around my mouth. Seriously? “Your mind is stronger than his, so this will have to do.”
I began to stare at Twilight with hate-filled eyes. This damn bug was about to take away his virginity. If I let this happen, my girlfriend would never forgive me... Probably think I'd done it with another woman and cheated on her. No... I can't let this happen... But what can I do? “Don't make put a blindfold over your eyes...” She sat on my chest.
I closed my eyes, and began to think back to memories with my girlfriend. How happy I was could not be described when I was around her. We've had so many great times with each other... And now this bitch was about to ruin everything! I began to shake from anger and frustration that was building inside of me. She ignored this and began undressing me, beginning with my trousers, and then my shirt. All that was left was my boxers. She licked her lips. “Come on... Loosen up... Enjoy yourself...” She giggled. However... Instead of feeling anger or hate... I felt... Lost. My head was hung low, and my eyes were filled with lost hope.
She chuckled at this, and took off my boxers. Finally, she began to go at it. To top it all off, she casted a spell that enhanced my senses and pleasure tenfold. I was having a hard time breathing, and I was trying to focus on something else... Anything else other than this. Chrysalis noticed this and pulled my chin up to look in my eyes. I could feel my resistance begin to weaken... My fortitude... Everything was slowing down... As if I my own energy was being drained. My eyes began to soften... Anger was leaving me...
I began to remember all of my memories... My family... My friends... And my girlfriend. My eyes hardened again, and I looked at Zach on the other bed. He laid there with his mouth open, drooling on the bed, his eyes flutter open and closed, and his eyes are still green. I began to feel more going on... Down there. I looked back to Chrysalis, and she had begun to speed up. I looked away, again, hoping to not witness what was happening. She noticed this and began to grow slightly frustrated. “Time for a little trick...” She giggled. I looked back up to see Chrysalis's face collide with mine, and then both merge together. I feel as if my mind and memories are being violated.
“It's because they are.” A female voice emanated from seemingly everywhere.
“Get out of my head, Chrysalis!” I shouted. “Tsk, tsk, tsk... Doug, you should know better than to keep secrets from your friend, that's just mean. Hahaha!” A memory played back in his vision... It was my girlfriend's birthday, and we were cuddled together outside, enjoying the bonfire...
“Such pure love... So much compassion... I need it...”
My girlfriend spoke, “I love you, Doug.”
As I was reliving the sweet memory, something strange happened. My girlfriend had gotten on top of me, I looked back at her, and then back at myself. I was naked. She was going at it with me. What the hell is going on...? This isn't right... I tried to stop her, but I couldn't move a damn muscle. Not that this wasn't awesome, something wasn't right here...
Chrysalis
. I noticed a green tint in one of my girlfriend's eyes. No! All the anger and hate that had been building up inside of me came rushing out like wildfire. No love was in me right now, just hate. Pure, angry hate. The sudden lack of love dispelled Chrysalis from my mind, and we returned to the real world... Or Equestria, for that matter. I snap my vision back to Twilight, or rather Chrysalis, and shot my face as far as I could. I was face-to-face with her, filled with immense rage. She seemed to back off at this, not liking the sudden changing of feeling. She clambored off of me.
“Fine.” Green flames engulfed her body as she transformed into the true Queen Chrysalis.
Surprisingly, she removed the plug from my mouth. “I have obtained plenty of nutrition from you and your friend there. Any last words before I get rid of you both completely?”
Eager to speak up, I eagerly replied, “Yeah, two things actually: Where's Twilight?”
She giggled, “In the basement, tied up, being guarded by a few of my own minions.”
Eager to keep it going as long as possible, I continued, “Alright, two: What if I were to tell you that the princesses were on their way here, right now?”
She outright laughed at this, “I looked into your memories, remember? Something about the Zebrasian Plains?”
Damn... Forgot about that. “And what of Luna?”
“One thousand years on the moon can make you lonely, we have spies everywhere. Let's say she's... Preoccupied.” She chuckled.
Now, I'm just bullshitting her. “And how did you make such a comeback after Princess Cadance and Shining Armor defeated you?”
With a smug grin on her face, she replied. “Aww... Now that would be telling too much.”
“Why care? I'm obviously going to die soon, anyways.” Nice move, Doug. She moved to speak, but I interrupted her, much to her irritation. “Oh, and another thing. What exactly have you been feeding off of when you were 'doing' me? I've done nothing but think about general stuff and life. Mostly, anyways. I was hating you, even before you revealed your flea-bitten, true form.”
Ignoring my insult, she shook her head, “I can't seem to drain you fully, your mind is too strong. But your friend is more than enough. Apparently he wanted to screw Twilight badly. On second thought, I'll take him back to the hive and use him as my personal meal. And I'll send you back with a wiped memory...”
I jumped at that, “You BITCH!” I threw my shoe off and it flew at her horn, bouncing it off it.
She begins to wail in laughter, “Fool! You really think I'm that weak?”
I shrugged, “It affected you when you were in Twilight's form, was worth a shot.” She smiled and turned towards Zach. Oh, not again... She changed back into Twilight's form and climbed onto the bed on top of Zach. She readied herself to mount him again.
CRASH
The door smashed open, revealing the two princesses of Equestria with Twilight not far behind them. Chrysalis jumped off of Zach due to being startled and faced the doorway.“Oh, thank Celestia... And Luna... And Twilight... Nevermind, mind helping us out... Please?” Celestia nodded and fired a bolt of magic at Chrysalis. She dodged and returned to her normal form to fly out of the window. Celestia and Luna took chase, while Twilight remained here with us.
Twilight began to approach Zach, who's eyes were still glowing bright green. “Wait... Green... Hold on. Twilight, stay away from him!” She stopped in her tracks and noticed the eyes, too. She backed up a bit.
Zach quivered and stuttered, “P-please don't h-hurt me...” Looks like he's hallucinating from the lack of energy.
“Wait, Twilight, you don't know if the Chrysalis that ran is the real one or was just a decoy.” She nodded and casted a spell to scan him.
“He's real. It's not Chrysalis. Some of her effects are just taking time to wear off...”
Zach began to curl up into a ball, the horror getting to him. “Oh shit... That really is him! Twilight, there has to be something you can do! Tell me there is something you can do!”
Twilight looks at me, still magically chained up to the bed. Realizing what had been done to us, her face turned red. Giving a few seconds, she regained her composure, or some of it anyways. “He's... Dying... She must have put some sort of long-lasting spell to stop him from regaining his strength... I don't know how your bodies work... So I don't know what to do... I'm... So sorry...” She removed my binds, allowing me to walk up to Zach.
“No... DAMN IT!” I punched the wall in anger, leaving a dent in the wood. Zach was visibly shaking. I grabbed hold of his hand, trying my best to reassure him, even though he's hallucinating. His hand felt unnaturally cold. “It's cool, dude... Just... Hang in there, buddy.” I turned to Twilight, “Could Celestia or Luna lift the spell?”
“I... Don't know... I've never heard of a hex this bad... Nor have I seen one...” She said solemnly, feeling horrible herself that she can't do anything to help the poor creature. I turned back to Zach, and noticed that blood had begun to pour out of his nose and his mouth. “Shit! Come on, buddy... We're in Equestria... We just got here... Don't leave me behind, bro...” Tears began to flow from my eyes.
Anger began to flow even more freely as the realization began to hit me, “I should have known... Guh... We were brought to this world, thinking that we would experience true friendship and love for the first time, and we end up getting FUCKED by the worst villain in Equestrian history! Dammit!” Twilight recoiled at my foul language, not wanting to take the brunt of these harsh words. “We were used as sex slaves for nourishment! What the fuck kind of being does that?” I breath heavily for a minute and take a few seconds to catch my breath and calm myself.
“I'm sorry, Twilight... You shouldn't be hearing my foul language... You shouldn't be witnessing this... Just... Everything we came to see... It's all... Wrong...” I was interrupted by Zach lurching up and grabbing my shoulders as he began to stare into my eyes. By now, his mouth was covered in blood. He uttered my name, “Doug...” He stared into my eyes for one final second. Time slowed down as he released my shoulders and fell to the floor. In mere seconds... I had just witnessed my friend die in front of me...
“...” I leaned back against the wall I had just punched... Not caring for splinters or nails that might have exposed itself from the indention. A look of pure sadness and lost hope overcomes my face as I look at my dead friend's body. Twilight stared at the lifeless corpse. She wasn't faring much better, with tears in her eyes... She had just witnessed another sentient being die.
“All.. All I've ever known was making my friends happy... And cheering them up when they weren't...” I began to choke from the oncoming barrage of tears. “Whenever a friend was down... I would do my very best... to cheer them up... To tell them that everything was okay... Now... One of my friends is dead... I've... Let him... Down... Oh God...” I began to cry profusely onto my friend's body.
I heard another familiar voice, a booming one to be exact.
“THE EVIL VIL-” It stopped, probably after noticing Zach and me.
I had guessed it to be Luna, but I didn't bother looking. I couldn't really think properly right now. A moment later, I heard more hooves clopping against the ground. I assumed Celestia had returned, I tried to look up, but with my tear-filled eyes, I could not. I could feel the god-like aura surrounding me as she approached... I felt... Like an ant under its queen... I could do nothing, but continue to cry over the sudden death of my only friend in this new world...
A moment later, I began to feel the wind pick up. Through my wet eyes, I could see movement where Zach's body lay. He shifted his body onto his stomach and began to spit out blood, while at the same time gasping for air. I was speechless... I had just witnessed my friend die, and then come back alive. I finally looked up to see Celestia, Luna, and Twilight all casting some sort of spell. Everypony's faces seemed to be fixed in frustration from the effort put into the spell. A minute later, all three of them collapsed from exhaustion onto the ground, breathing quite heavily.
“Holy shit...” They just brought my friend back to life. I had no response to this right now. I would have hugged for them that, but they look really exhausted right now. I turned back to Zach, and he was returned to his original position on his back, but he was looking straight at me.
“W-wha...?” I couldn't speak straight. This doesn't even seem remotely possible!
He didn't say anything in response. “Zach? Are... You alright?” He shook his head slowly in response.
“Uh... Can you talk?” He shook his head again. “What... Can you do, then?” He raises his left hand and uses two fingers from his right hand to tap it against the left hand's palm. “I... Don't follow...”
He continues to tap his left palm in a specific pattern. “Wait... Morse code?” He nods vigorously. I facepalmed. “Seriously, dude?” I chuckled, wiping the tears from my wet eyes. He shrugged at my comment. “Ha... Good to have you back, buddy. Now, onto the matter of why you can't speak.” I turned back to the three beside us. Twilight seemed to have regained her stature first, so I decided to get her attention. She looked up and saw Zach alive along with me sitting beside him. Before I could ask her a question, she jumped over to us, pushed me out of the way, and gave Zach a tackle hug. “Yay! It worked! Oh Celestia, I can't believe it!”
I had fallen backwards onto some more books. “Why am I always getting pushed backwards...?” I sighed, getting up. She looked back at me and gave a sheepish smile, “Sorry...” She climbed off of Zach as well. I smiled, “What, no hug for me?”
“Well... You didn't die...” She stated in a matter-of-fact tone. Wow. Harsh words, Twilight, harsh words.
I made an over dramatic sad face and looked down to the ground to notice something... quite embarrassing. I was still naked, and so was Zach. Oh fuck.
I covered my private area and spoke up immediately, “On second thought, maybe a hug at this point isn't such a good idea...” I cleared my throat.
“What do you mean?” Twilight asked, obviously curious as to why I was covering up my... Sensitive area.
“Um... You know how ponies don't always wear clothes?” She nodded slowly. “Well... Us humans kind of have to, it's not exactly socially accepted to go walking around nude in public.” I glanced at my southern parts for a second, hoping she would get the notion. Her face went apple-red as she realized what I was talking about.
“O-Oh, oh my!” She looked away. “I, I'm so sorry!”
“It's... Uh... Fine... I just need... Something to cover myself with.” Twilight used her magic and opened a spare door on the other side of the room. She grabbed a blanket from the room and levitated it to me. After promptly covering myself, I turned back to see Zach already dressed up in his original clothes. “Sneaky bastard...” I muttered. He got up and walked to Celestia and put his hand on her neck. He opened his mouth and pointed a finger towards his neck. She seemed to get the notion and backed up a bit to cast another spell. As she was lowering her head in preparation, however, Zach grabbed his head and fell to his knees. “Za-” He interrupted me as he yelled out in pain.
“Zach!” I rushed over to him and got down on my knee beside him. “Celestia! What's wrong? What's going on?”
“I... Don't know... This shouldn't be happening.” Her eyes darted left and right, trying to figure out a solution to this sudden outburst of pain. I pulled his hands away from his face and saw his eyes. They were flashing green, again. “Oh no... His eyes...” The three saw them and gasped. The moment they all saw the green eyes, the color returned to normal, and he no longer seemed to be in pain.
“Ow.” Zach muttered. We all let out a sigh of relief when he returned to normal. “You done flipping out, Zach? You're scarin' the shit out of me, man.” I nervously chuckled.
“I hope so.” He croaked. Cripes, that doesn't sound good. I double checked his eyes, and I wish I hadn't. His irises were still green, just without the glowing. He seemed to be acting normally, though.
“Dude, you do know that your irises on your eyes are green, right?” I asked, somewhat afraid of what could happen next.
He just shrugged, “I look better with green eyes. Oh well.” Wow, nonchalant much?
“Dude, you just got raped, killed, and revived. And you're not worried about how your eyes are green now?” I asked incredulously.
“What? When did that happen? I... Can't remember anything.” He replied with a look of confusion on his face.
“Wait, what? You don't remember anything? Nothing at all?” I asked, surprised by the fact that all that's happened, I have to be the only one who's scarred for the rest of my life.
“No... Just waking up coughing, with Chrysalis holding you with Telekinesis. And being pulled through the portal, of course, and everything before that.” he said, still sort of confused.
“Oh... Wow. Well, you got kidnapped, raped, killed, and brought back. I got raped, too. Any questions?” I said with a chuckle.
“I... Need to think...” He exited the bedroom. Huh... Well, I guess we all need time to think. I looked back towards the three ponies who happened to be talking to each other on the other side of the room.
“So... That awkward moment aside, what now?” I asked, curious as to what would happen to us next.
Celestia walked away from the group and up to me. She seemed to be smiling again, that is good. That smile seemed to put me at great ease. “Well, human...”
“Doug... Name's Doug.” I corrected.
“Right. Well, Doug, it would be rude of me to keep me from your home, your family probably misses you a great deal, as do your friends.” I was shocked to hear this. I wasn't exactly ready to go back home. I'm in Equestria... Why would I go back now? I know my family probably misses the heck out of me, same with my girlfriend and friends...
Hey! Listen!
What. Was that my phone? I looked behind me and my clothes were thrown against the shelf. I went up to my jeans and took out my phone. I had received a text message. Strange... There wasn't any signal. Oh, right. My phone loves to glitch out a lot, probably just took it awhile to register. I clicked a button to view the text, and it was from my girlfriend.
“I'm breaking up with you.”
I froze in place, my heart skipping a beat. I took a step back and began to shake... I couldn't think straight... Something cracked inside me. All of the stress that I’d experienced today had finally taken its toll on me. My eyes rolled inwards, and I collapsed, losing consciousness. The last sounds I heard were gasps from the other ponies in the room.
I awoke from my sudden sleepy-time and opened my eyes to see I was resting on a bed in Twilight's room. Coincidentally, it was the bed that I was raped on. I jumped up in attention, fearing that Chrysalis was still in here. After a minute of looking around, my recent memories came flooding back to me, and I calmed down. Then, I remembered the text message.
“Fuck...” I put my hands over my face and pressed my thumb upon my temples in frustration. “What the hell could have made her even consider doing that? I don't even... I... No. I'm not going to let this get to me. I'm in freaking Equestria. You know what? I'm going to stay here. Or at least for a while. I... Need a fucking break from this mess...”
After that little episode of me talking to myself, I got up and began walking towards the door. After further observation, however, I noticed I was still in the nude. I searched for my clothes and found them lying against the shelf. I saw the phone on the ground and went to pick it up. I froze halfway, considering my options. I shook my head, “I've had enough of this damn phone.” I pulled back, put on my clothes, and walked downstairs into the living room. There, I found Twilight in the kitchen with Spike cooking up some eggs. Zach wasn't in the room, though. And Princess Celestia, and Luna were nowhere to be found, probably back at the castle.
“Morning, guys...” I mumbled.
“Good morning, Doug! I'm glad to see you're alright, you gave us such a scare when you fainted!” She exclaimed, excited to see me okay. Spike's eyes went to pin-pricks when he laid eyes upon me.
“Heh... Well. That's kinda what happens to a guy when he finds out his girlfriend breaks up with them. Well, to me anyways.” I chuckled dryly. Twilight looked up into my eyes with surprise. “Oh... Oh my... I’m so sorry... I-I didn’t know.”
“Heh... It’s alright, it happens a lot in my world, just wish we could have talked about it. Then again, I am in Equestria. Point is, Twilight, I’m not really looking forward to getting back to my world. Mainly because, the first feeling I’m going to get is sadness.” I sighed and smiled, “I’d like to be happy for once, and this is my chance.” She nodded with a small smile in understanding. “I think Princess Celestia wouldn’t have an issue with that.” I noticed Spike was still frozen in shock from seeing such a weird creature.
I looked towards Spike, “Hey there, buddy. Name's Doug. Who might you be?” I held out my hand for a handshake with a smile. Obviously, I knew who he was, but I think It'd be best to keep it on the down low that there's a show about them in my world.
He seemed to ease up when he figured out I could talk, and be well-mannered. Still, I could see the doubt in his eyes. He held out his claw rather reluctantly and we shook hand to claw. “Hey... Name's Spike.”
“Don't worry, Spike. He’s a friend of mine, and he’s not the only one.” She said to reassure him. Thankfully, it seemed to ease him up, but he decided to get back to washing the dishes. Speaking of Zach, “Right, where is he anyways?”
“He’s in the cellar, been in there for a couple of hours. Actually, I was about to bring him his breakfast, would you mind doing it for me?” She asked, levitating a plate of scrambled eggs to me.
“Sure thing, be back in a bit.” I grabbed it and walked up to the cellar door and opened it. It was quite dark in there, save the one lit up candle on the desk in the corner of the small room.
“Yo, Zach, I got some eggs for ya, you want some?” I called out as I began the short descent downstairs. No response... Hmm. Probably fell asleep overnight. I walked up to the desk to find Zach resting his head over a scroll. Out of curiosity, I lifted his head gently and grabbed the scroll. Out of curiosty, I skimmed over the writing and was surprised. It was a complete recollection of the events leading up to him being teleported, waking up after I had been knocked unconscious by an inconvenient shelf, mentioning my name, and then being revived. In other words, it was a journal. Honestly, this could be used to spawn a whole new wave of fan fiction. Let’s hope not. I placed the plate in front of his face. As expected, the scent of the eggs caused him to wake up. He took a big wiff of the scent and slowly sat up, stretching his arms out. When he opened his eyes, he went wide-eyed as soon as he laid eyes upon the scrambled eggs, and began to dig in.
“Well, Zach, we’re here in Equestria, finally living our dream. It was freaking hell in the beginning, but I believe this will all be worth it. Seriously, no amount of trouble could amount to the crap we’ve experienced last night.” I shivered in disgust at the thought.
“You got that right.” He replied thoughtfully, followed by another loud burp. I looked down, and he was already leaning back in pleasure as he patted his belly.
I raised my eyebrow in curiosity, “Was it that good, man?”
He nodded with a grin. “Best damn eggs I’ve ever had.” I chuckled, maybe I should give it a taste?
“Maybe I should give eggs another try, then. In this world, it’s bound to taste brilliant.” I said, rubbing my belly in anticipation. He nodded vigorously, “You won’t be disappointed.”
“Alright, man. Guess I will, you comin’?”
“Yeah, gimme’ a sec.” He said, hopping out of his chair and heading upstairs with me. Once back in the kitchen, Twilight noticed us both about to grab a plate of eggs. “Hey there, glad to see you’re feeling well... Oh dear, I’m so sorry, I never caught your name.” She apologized, wanting to know his name for future reference.
“It’s Zach. It’s good to meet you.” He said with a smile, holding out his hand for a handshake. She accepted it and smiled as well.
“Well, it’s nice to meet you, Zach. Princess Celestia has asked me to look for homes for you two to stay in while you both are here. I have an ample amount of space for one person, but not both.” She stated, pointing her hoof at the living room to the right of us. “I can talk with my friends to see which can house the other, but I’m sure my friend, Applejack, will have plenty of space. Plus, it will give me a chance to introduce you both to everypony in town.”
“Sounds like a plan, Twilight. Let me just eat some eggs to fill up my belly, then we’ll go.” I said while grabbing a plate of eggs, a fork and knife, and a cup of orange juice. I then moved to the table and took a seat.
She nodded with a small smile, “Take your time.” I grabbed my fork and picked a piece of the scrambled eggs, and took a bite. I began to chew on my first bite, and immediately felt the need to spit it out. Unfortunately, Zach seemed to notice my discomfort and raised his eyebrow. I shrugged and painstakingly swallowed the vile food, and proceeded to take a gulp out of my orange juice to wash out the horrid taste. My taste buds happily accepted the orange juice as a replacement for what I had just digested a second before.
I sighed, and then chuckled, “I guess somethings will never change...” For once though, I decided to finish up the plate in favor of being polite to Twilight and Spike. I forced a smile and commented, “It’s good.” She nodded with a smile in approval. I guess this was her cooking. Oh well, always time for eating out sometime today, I honestly want to try a Daisy Sandwich. I went back to the kitchen and cleaned off my plate, leaving it in the sink. I walked out of the kitchen and sat back down at the table to finish my orange juice, and it seemed Zach had already gotten a second serving. I decided to strike up conversation with Twilight to kill the silence.
“So, Twilight, do you have any plans on where we’ll be going first?” I asked, turning towards her.
“Well, I was thinking that we could probably pay Mayor Mare a visit, to mainly get you two situated in this town as registered citizens. Afterwards, I plan on having us visit my friends.” She said before taking a sip of her coffee.
“Right,” I looked back towards Zach, who had already finished his plate. He was leaning back against his chair, while patting his belly. “Lovely.” I chuckled. If only I could agree with you. Twilight went up to the table and magically picked up Zach’s plate, returning it to the sink. “You two ready?”
We looked at her, and then at each other. We both nodded, stood up, and then walked out of the tree house. Finally, the dull, boring, and grim days of Earth are over for us. Now, a tale of friendship and light-hearted fun begins for the two lone humans. How bad could it be?
Attempting to Remember... (Zach's POV)
I'm writing this in a diary in fear that I will forget the events that happened last Tuesday. I don't know if I want to remember, but I might be able to figure out how I got to Equestria and why. I'm currently sitting in Twilight's basement, there is a lamp on the desk and I have several pieces of paper and I'm going to write all of what I can remember down.
First off. Before I came to Equestria, I was sitting at the computer. It was 11:30 PM GMT +0, That's England's time. My friend Doug lives in America. He has central time I think. So he would be GMT -6. Anyway. I was talking to him over Skype and we where discussing what best pony was. After a hour of talking, I got tired and decided to go to sleep. So I got undressed all to my boxers, then climbed into the bed, switched off my light and closed my eyes.
Then. I woke up. On a wooden floor. No, this wasn't right. For several reasons; 1. I explicitly remember sleeping on my bed. 2. The house I live in doesn't have wooden flooring. So I decided to groan, it was painful to be face-first on wooden floor. "Ow." I looked up, and this was no house I had seen before. I checked my watch. it said it was midday. This wasn't right. There was no light coming through the windows. So i got up, my clothes where laying next to me. That was strange. So I put them on; A T-shirt with Metallica printed on it and joggers. Then i had a look around. The house had absolutely zero technology inside of it. Not even light bulbs. There where candle lanterns on the wall but no matches. So I left the lanterns where they should be and waited for my small amount of night-vision to set in. It took around 5 minutes. But the moonlight had been amplified enough so I wouldn't trip over anything. I got up from my hiding place and had a look around. It was a Library. A very familiar looking library.
The library was all wooden, it had a cobblestone fireplace and some stairs to my left. Being naturally curious I ascended the stairs and then paused as I thought I heard a sound. The sound didn't recur so I continued up the stairs and slowly crept to the first room. I turned the door knob slowly and looked inside. My fears where immediately confirmed. There was Twilight Sparkle laying on her bed. I shut the door. Totally frozen. Several thoughts ran through my mind; How did I get here? Was it a accident? Am I dreaming? Will I ever get back home?
I didn't want to leave my family. So I found what looked like a sofa downstairs and sat on it. I'm in Equestria. I looked outside. The sun had just started to rise. I heard a door open upstairs, I got up quickly to find Twilight descending the stairs. She yelled in surprise and I held my hands up "I'm not going to hurt you!" She calmed down a little "Wh-What are you?" She immediately went from scared to curious that was kinda cute. "I'm a Human. Humans are bi-pedal as you can see." She thought for a moment. "I don't think Humans exist. How did you get here?" I thought for a moment. "I could ask you the same thing. I have no clue." She walked over to the kitchen and entered it, I followed.
For the next few hours we engaged in talk about what the science was like back home, I showed her my watch and asked her what the time was. She said it was midday so I set my watch to 12PM after around 15 minutes I needed the toilet. "Twilight, where's the toilet?"
"Oh, there's a bathroom upstairs, second room on your left." She replied
"Thanks." I ascended the stairs and opened the door to the toilet. After 'doing my business' Twilight called out from down the stairs "Hey! There is another one of you?" I was confused. Had I been cloned?
"What do you mean there's another one of me?"
"I mean there's another human!" She sounded shocked
"What? Really? Hold on, I'll be down in a minute!" I rushed to get clothed again. It took me a while because I was in a rush. Then I exited the bathroom, closing the door behind me and.. I was confused. It was my friend Doug that i had been talking to a few hours ago!
"Doug?"
He replied with a equally confused: "Zach...?"
“You two know each other?” Twilight piped up, interrupting my confused state
“Y-yeah... Online, I mean... Still. I know him pretty well.” Doug replied first
“Online?” Oh no. Don't mention the fandom! Don't wipe out time!
I almost panicked. But Doug got it. “Online is sort of... A method of communicating with other people around the world. Extremely popular.”
“Interesting... So... How did you guys meet?” I was almost sweating bullets. This time I spoke:
"Well..... Basically Doug's friend Kyle wanted me to voice act for him so I met his friend called Isaac after that, then I met Doug. Sounds complicated but yeah." Totally bypassed the fandom. At least Twilight won't try to figure out how we know about her and the whole of Equestria.
“Ookay... Right. Now that we're done with the introductions... What say we get onto something... else?” She asked while batting her eyes seductively.
Doug quickly said: "Can we... Have a moment?"
She rolled her eyes "Fine. But not too long!"
I hopped down from the mini-balcony sort of thing and stood next to Doug, facing away from Twilight I whispered to Doug: "She's in Heat, I could... Smell her."
He replied with a really tough-to-answer question: "You know when a mare is in heat?"
Before i could answer, Twilight pounced Doug, pinning him to the floor. I was knocked back a little and was surprised by the sudden movement.
"Twilight, what the heck are you doing?" Doug
"Having a little fun..." She giggled.
"Oh dear... Zach? A little help here?" I had already grabbed hold of Twilight's horn and started to rub, hoping that all the fics I read about it being a sensitive hub of nerves where true. Apparently they where as Twilight seemed to pause. Then I started to pull her off of Doug.
He was surprised "What're you- Oh.. Wow.. That's actually working?"
"I read too many.. Detailed fics."
"Wow, dude." He scooted out from under her "Let's get out of here then?"
I nodded. Twilight let out a moan then collapsed to the floor "Book it."
We run out of the tree house and traveled a good distance away from Twilight. “She won't be like that for long, what can we do now?” Doug looked to me for answers. I looked to my right and saw the Mayor's office.
"Mayor Mare's office?"
He nodded, “Good idea, she should be experienced with things like this.” So, we ran to the Town Hall and entered through the front double-doors. There was a desk in the main room with a pony behind, but she wasn't the mayor, but probably the secretary.
She happened to be looking down at a document at the time, and didn't notice us come in.
Doug whispered to me; “Uh... Zach, you might want to handle this one... I don't do well when I have to be social...”
"Alright." I cleared my throat: "Excuse me, can we please see the Mayor?" She looked stunned, but understood what we said, looked in a book of some sorts and then nodded. We headed over to the stairs. But as i started to ascend the staircase, a portal opened up next to me, I was being pulled by something into it.
I could only yell out "Help!" before the portal closed.
I opened my eyes to reveal that I was being kissed.. By Twilight on her bed in her bedroom. She broke the kiss and looked at me. I looked back up at her, she had me pinned and I didn't really want to hurt her anyway.
She smirked then casted a spell.
That's all I can remember after that. Everything after that is just blank. There are points where I can remember, but just spots.
Then I shot up, coughing. I looked around and saw Doug being held with a green aura.. Wait. Green? Then I looked at my self, I was naked. The realisation hit me like Mjölnir (Thor's hammer, that thing hurts) That wasn't Twilight! THAT WAS CHRYSALIS!
I tried to jump at her, when I realised that she had been draining my love with... Sex... So I could barely move she lit up her horn before i could finish saying "Chrys-" Then my memory blanks again..
When I eventually awoke, I spun round so I was facing the floor and starting coughing up blood like no tomorrow, I was gasping for air now, it felt like I had just been stabbed, several times, through the heart. I turned round, to see my friend Doug looking at something, from my angle I don't know what it was. I couldn't speak or move anything else at this time, so I'd just have to lay there.
Whilst looking at him he muttered "Holy shit..." then he looked back at me, seeming half surprised. "W-what..?"
"Zach? Are you alright?" I couldn't speak so I shook my head slowly.
"Uh. Can you talk?" I shook my head again. "Well.. What can you do?" I though for a moment. Then thought back to the weeks I spent learning Morse code to become a radio amateur.
I started tapping my fingers against my hand to say I'm talking in Morse code
"I... Don't follow..." I tap my hand in a specific pattern. "Wait? Morse code?" I nodded my head vigorously. "Seriously dude?" I shrugged. "Ha.. Good to have you back buddy. Now, onto the matter of why you can't speak." He turned to face Twilight who was standing next to the seriously-worn-out princesses.
Then I was Tackle hugged by Twilight, It was enjoyable, but I was naked at the time. She apologised and got off of me.
"What? No hug for me?" Doug sounded sad
"Well you didn't die.."
"On second thought, maybe a hug at this point isn't such a good idea."
“What do you mean?” Twilight asked
“Um... You know how ponies don't always wear clothes?” She nodded slowly. “Well... Us humans kind of have to, it's not exactly socially accepted to go walking around nude in public.”
“O-Oh, oh my!” She looked away. “I, I'm so sorry!”
“It's... Uh... Fine... I just need... Something to cover myself with.”
I saw my clothes and put them on quickly. Then I got up and wandered over to Celestia, I put my hand around her neck, opened my mouth and pointed towards my neck. She backed up and started to cast a spell.
However, before she could I encountered a extreme amount of pain and fell to my knees, clutching my head. I fell to my side and looked at the others, they all gasped.
However, as soon as the pain arrived, it was gone. I got up and tried to speak "Ow." Yeah I could speak again. They all let out a sigh of relief, "You done flipping out on us Zach? You're scaring the shit out of me man."
"I hope so." My voice was croaky like hell but understandable.
"Dude, you do know your irises are green right?" I shrugged.
"I look better with green eyes. Oh well."
"Dude, you just got raped, killed and revived and you don't care about your eyes being green?"
"What? When did that happen? I.. Can't remember anything.."
"Wait, what? You don't remember anything? Nothing at all?" Doug looked confused..
"No.. Just waking up coughing, with Chrysalis holding you with Telekinesis. And being pulled through the portal of course, and everything before that."
“Oh... Wow. Well, you got kidnapped, raped, killed, and brought back. I got raped, too. Any questions?” he said with a chuckle.
At that point I blanked. I had to think this through. I stood up and looked at Twilight, then at Doug.
"I... Need to think..." I exited the bedroom, heading towards the cellar. I found some parchment, and a writing feather thing, with a ink pot. Pulled up a chair and started writing...
That leads up to now, where I have finished writing the past events for today. I'll think of this as a diary of sorts. But I still need time to go over what has happened.
I may add to this journal, I may not.
