The Realm of Ponies and Magic

Celestia's Sun was slowly starting to rise as the warm rays bathed the land in its warmth. Tomz was peacefully sleeping until the rays of the sun peaked through the windows of the old castle and started to poke his eyes telling him it was time to get up.

Tomz slowly opened his eyes as he blinked a couple of times to get the sleep out of his system. He sat up and stretched earning a couple of satisfying cracks. Once he was no longer tired and sleepy he stood up from the bed and yawned. "Alright, what's on the agenda today," He asked himself until it clicked
"Oh right..small pony town."

Tomz POV
I gotta say, I slept like a baby, that bed sure is something. I started to make my way to the castle's library to do a double-check and just to make sure I didn't miss anything. About 10 minutes later, I gathered everything I needed to know about this world. "Okay to review: Two pony princesses that can control the celestial bodies, ponies that can control the weather, Elements of Harmony and...I think that's pretty much it"

I started my journey as I left the castle and started following an old dirt road that was leading me to the exit of the Everfree Forest. As I was walking down the dirt path I noticed a sign to my right. It said: Welcome to Ponyville. Home of the Elements of Harmony.

"Huh...that wasn't here yesterday. Maybe Applebloom was pulling me to fast for me to see it?" I asked myself as I continued to walk. After a few more minutes I finally reached the town as I looked around and took a deep breath. 'Okay, here goes nothing' I thought to myself. With that said I entered Ponyville as once more I was the center of attention.
I heard a couple of whispers coming my way

"What is that?"

"What's with the paintbrush and fountain pen?"

"It looks weird"

I rolled my eyes as let out a quiet sigh. "Geez, guys thanks for the warm welcome" Now that I had a better look at this town. I saw ponies shopping for food or some other necessities. I continued to walk through the small town until I felt some kind of magical presence coming toward me at an alarming rate. I sidestepped just in time to see a rainbow blur flying past me. That rainbow blur turned out to be that rainbow pony from yesterday. She was wearing a white sleeveless shirt and a teared up blue jeans. I also saw she had a pair of wings on her back.

"What are you doing in Ponyville you monster and how did you do that!" She demanded.

I just gave her a warm smile "Easy dear, I just dodged your tackle by sidestepping."

She growled at me and spread her wings. She then launched herself at me to try and tackle me again but I just teleported behind her making her confused and angry.

"Look Miss we can do this all day or you can be a smart pony and calm down so we can discuss this like normal people..um..ponies" Come on I do not wish to fight you but if you keep pushing my buttons I will fight back.

She took up a fighting stance as she glared at me.

"You still didn't answer my question, what are you doing in Ponyville," She asked me again though she was keeping her guard up

I looked at her and started to think of an answer. I know I'm here to make first contact but how do I make her believe me...hmm... You know what I'll just wing it and hope for the best.

"I woke up in that forest over there and once I realized I was lost, I started to search for some kind of civilization. It's nice to see that my search has been fruitful.
I know that my appearance is frightening and scary but I'm not a bad guy or some scary monster that wants to eat you and rule the world. I mean I saved those three fillies back there yesterday and escorted them here." Okay, now I told her half the truth. Let's just hope she will drop the whole fight thing so we can be civilized. To my surprise that did get a reaction from her. How do I know this pony is a girl..um..well...breasts.

"Wait you're that Nephilim creature the crusaders talked about yesterday?"

I smile and nodded. "Pleasure meeting you sweetheart, quite a pleasure. Name's Tomz"

After a couple of more minutes, she finally relaxed and flew over to me.

"Thanks for that by the way...I didn't know what would I do if I lost Scootalo:" She told me to which I nodded once more

"So may I have your name dear?" I asked her

"Hmm oh right. I'm Rainbow Dash, the fastest pony in all of Equestria!" She proudly told me as she put a hand on her chest.
It looks like we got a pony with an ego.

I nodded at her. "well like I said before it is nice to meet you. So what kind of pony are you?"

"I'm a Pegasi. Don't you have ponies where you're from?" She asked me as she raised an eyebrow

"Well we do but...they don't fly..or talk...or have magic...or walk on two legs:" I answered. It took me some time but I figured that this was one of those Anthro realms where animals ear clothes and are more human-like in appearance. Like Sonic or those furries...hey I should visit Sonic to see how is he doing.

"That's strange. Oh since your already here, let me show you around. You will get a grand tour from one and only Rainbow Dash!" She exclaimed proudly.

"You know what, that's exactly what I wanted to ask you. Lead the way" I told her as I gestured with my hand.

With that Rainbow Dash started to show me around Ponyville. She showed me the Town Hall, then some kind of house-made entirely out of sweets by the name of Sugarcube Corner. She said that her friend Pinkie Pie works there. We walked passed a giant treehouse which was a library for some reason, a giant faires wheel, or something along those lines. She mentioned her friend by the name of Rarity works there and that she makes dresses along with other clothing.
I nodded and continued to listen. She then pointed to a direction outside of Ponyville and told me that there was an apple farm by the name of Sweet Apple Acers and that her friend Applejack along with her family works there. After a while, we finished our little tour as she looked at me.

"That's all of Ponyville for ya. I gotta run, I''m on weather patrol duty. It was nice meeting ya Tomz. See you later" She told me as she then flew away leaving a rainbow track behind her.

" Nice meeting ya as well Rainbow," I told her as I waved at her as she flew away. Hmmm...I guess I can explore more of this small town.

With that set in mind, I started to walk around and admire the place. I was still getting stares and glances from the ponies that passed by me but I didn't think much of it. At some point, I saw a giant castle that was attached to the side of the mountain. The hell? In what nine circles of hell can that castle stand at the side of the mountain? Unless it has some kind of support beams that hold it like that....but if there was an earthquake the whole city would fall on the ground below.
My head started to hurt as I tried to rationalize the logic of the mountain castle and I decided I will just leave it be. As I was walking something bumped into me as I heard a small "ouch". I looked down and I saw another pony....but she was pink. She had a pink fluffy mane and was wearing a blue shirt with yellow sleeves and a pink skirt that had three balloons on it. She also had blue eyes. The two of us were locked in a staring contest for a while until I decided to introduce myself.

"Um...Hello" I greeted her. She then jumped in the air as she gasped and ran to Asgore knows where leaving a trail of dust behind her.

"Huh...well that was something," I told myself as I continued to explore. I then heard someone was calling my name as I saw the three fillies from yesterday.

"Heya Kiddos, How's your day goin--OOF" I didn't get to finish as all three tackled me to the ground.

"I can't believe you came back !" Scootalo shouted as she squeezed me in a hug.

"Yeah well when you left me yesterday I just had to come back to see more of your lovely town," I told her as I patted her head. "um girls mind letting me go so I can stand up?"

"Oh right right," Applebloom said as all three of them let go of the dead hug and stood up along with me.

"What brings you to Ponyville?" Sweetie Belle asked me.

"well like I told Scootalo. When you three left I just had to come back to check out this town of yours."

"That's nice of you. Ponyville has a lot of things to offer. Come on let's show you around" Scootalo told me as she grabbed my hand again.

I smile at her "That won't be necessary girls. Rainbow Dash already showed me around town." Once I told her that her eyes changed into stars

"You know Rainbow Dash!?" She asked me with excitement as I nodded at her.

"Yeah, I met her when I entered the town. You know her?" I asked Scootalo back.

"Aha, she is the most awesome pony in all of Equestria!" Oh right that reminds me

"Rainbow Dash mentioned you, are you two related or something?" I asked the small orange pony

"Well we aren't blood-related but I see her as a big sister and she is awesome !" Scootalo answered me.

So they arent' blood related but they have a sister like bond with each other. That's nice to hear. They remind me of me and DeeDee. She is another Guardian like myself. She justs guards the Book Realms. The two of us have the same brother-sister bond. That does bring back memories.

*FLASHBACK*

"Tomz is that your sock on the ground?" DeeDee asked me as she pointed to the lone sock on the ground.

"yes" I simply responded back.

"well pick it up," She told me

"Ok" I responded back.

.
.
.
.
.

"Why is that sock still there, I told you to pick up," DeeDee asked me with a raised tone in her voice

"Ok" I simply responded back to her.

"When I get back, that sock better be in its rightful place," She told me before she left.

"Ok" I answered back.

.
.
.
.
.

"TOMZ!!! I TOLD YOU TO PICK UP THAT SOCK BY THE TIME I GET BACK AND IT'S STILL THERE. GO AND PICK IT UP !!!" She yelled at me

"Ok" I responded

.
.
.
.
.
.

That sock is still on the floor to this day.

*FLASHBACK END*

Those were the good times.

"Anyway's what can I do for you three?" I asked them as they started to think.

"Oh I know, we can show you our clubhouse?" I raised an eyebrow to that

"Clubhouse?" I asked

"Yes. Me, Scootalo, and Sweetie Belle are the Cutie Mark Crusaders and we are trying to get our cutie marks so that's why we have our little clubhouse.

I thought it wouldn't hurt so I nodded at their suggestion.

"Very well girls, let us go and check out that clubhouse of yours," I told them as they squeaked.

Scootalo grabbed my hand once more as she started to lead me to their clubhouse along with Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. While we were walking I realized we were leaving Ponyville and that our surroundings slowly started to be filled with rows and rows of apple trees. I looked down at Scootalo.

"Um, Scootalo...where are we?" I asked her as I looked around.

"We are entering Sweet Apple Acers. Our clubhouse is just behind the farm" Scootalo told me as I nodded.

"This is where me and my family work and live at. This is our farm." Applebloom told me which got my attention

"So you're telling me you and your family take care of the entire farm?" I asked her with a bit of disbelief

"Yep, the entire Apple Family takes care of the farm including me," Applebloom responded.

Huh well, I guess there's a first for everything.

After a while, we walked passed the big red barn, and soon we got to the small wooden house. The three ponies walked in as they gestured me to follow them. Though there was one problem. I don't think I'll fit in there, given my height. I walked up the stairs that the little clubhouse had and to my surprise, I fit in perfectly. Is this house one of those things that appear small on the outside but are actually big on the inside...kinda like The Doctor Who's Tardis. I started to feel a slight headache and I stopped thinking about it and decided to accept it. Once inside I saw the clubhouse had a decent setting. three small chairs and a table in the corner. One wall was filled with drawings that some were crossed so I decided to ask about them.

"Hey, Sweetie Belle, what's with those drawings. Some have a huge X over them.?" I asked as I pointed on them.

"Oh, those are all the ideas we have to get our cutie marks. The ones that are crossed didn't work."

Oh, I get it now. They did try a lot of them, and some of them were really dangerous if I can judge by the drawing. How are they still alive is beyond me.
The three of us continued to talk as they shared their cutie mark adventures. I noticed the sun was slowly starting to fall, then all of a sudden a growling was heard. The three ponies looked around until they noticed it was coming from me. I just chuckled.

"Yeah...I didn't eat anything since yesterday so I guess I'm hungry a little" I told them as I stood up.

"Oh let's go to Sugarcube Corner, if your hungry then that's the best place to get some food," Scootalo said as she looked up at me.

"Oh well if this Sugarcube Corner is getting such praise, I suppose we can go and grab a bite," I said as we started to leave the clubhouse and walk back towards Ponyville.

We reached Ponyville in a couple of minutes and we were walking towards the big house made out of sweets. I really wonder if those are edible, it really looks like it. One thing I noticed is that the whole town seemed deserted somehow. Where did everyone go? I didn't get to answer that question as we made our way towards the door. The girls gestured towards the door as we all entered the candy house. We found ourselves in the darkness. Nothing was on.

"Girls..where are the lights?" I asked them as I searched the walls for the light switch.

*CLICK*

"SUPRISE!!"

"HOLY MOTHER---!" I grabbed my chest as I jumped a little because of the jumpscare. But then I found out that they planned some kind of surprise party..but for who? The next thing I know all I see is pink.

"HI! I'm Pinkie PIe and I made this party just for you! Were you surprised? Huh? Huh? HUH?" The pink fluffy pony from before asked me as she was glued to my face.

"Um.." I began as I grabbed her and pulled her off me and put her back on the ground. "What is all this?" I asked

"Well duh this is your Welcome to Ponyville Suprise party." Pinkie told me with a bright smile on her face.

"Yea I can see that but I don't think all of this was necessary but thank you for the party none the less," I told her with a faint smile.

Pinkie Pie nodded. "Alright everypony, LETS PARTY!!" She shouted as the rest of the ponies cheered and started to dance to music

Now as for me....well let's just say that I still tried to get used to the whole situation. I looked around as I saw ponies dancing and singing, some were playing party games. Something then got my attention. Food. I saw a table that had cupcakes, punch, drinks. You know typical party food. Now given that I didn't eat anything since the day I arrived in this realm I decided it wouldn't hurt. I walked towards the table as I sat down at the available seats and took a single chocolate cupcake and took a bite...and oh boy was it a good cupcake. It was filled with cream and some other flavor that I couldn't pinpoint...easy to say that was one of the best cupcakes I ever had. I was looking at the various ponies having the time of their lives until I heard my name being called.

"Hey Tomz" Rainbow Dash called out to me as I turned towards her.

"Hello, Rainbow, fancy seeing you here. What's up?" I asked as I glanced beside her and I saw a couple of more ponies with her. I recognized the two from the day before. One had orange fur and a blond mane, she was wearing a green shirt with rolled-up sleeves and a blue skirt and she had a cowboy hat on her head. The other one had white fur and purple curly mane. She was wearing a light blue shirt that also had rolled up sleeves, dark blue skirt with three diamonds on it. She also had a horn on her head.

"I wanted to introduce you to my friends. This Is Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Twilight Sparkle"

"Howdy partner, name's Applejack" The cowboy pony introduced herself.

"Pleasure to meet you, acquaintance. I am Rarity and I must say that outfit looks dashing on your darling" The white one with curly mane introduced herself.

When I looked at her something just screamed "DIVA"

"HI!! I'm Pinkie Pie but you already know that! Do you like your party? Howarethecupcakesaretheygooddidyoutrythepunchwhatgamesdoyoulike mpmpmmphfhfmf" The pink pony began until Applejack covered her mouth with her hand.

"Sorry about that. Pinkie just loves meeting new ponies." Applejack told me to which I nodded with a smile.

"it's cool, don't worry about it" I answered her.

"Hi, my name is Twilight Sparkle and I 'm sorry for asking you this but what are you?" She asked me. She had lavender fur with a dark purple mane and a single pink streak that was running through it. She also had a horn on her head like Rarity. She was wearing a school uniform..or a librarian uniform...or something in between...I don't know.

"Pleasure meeting you Twilight. To answer your question, I'm a Nephilim." I told her as she pulled out a small notebook and quill and started to write the information I gave her.

"Fascinating. I have so many questions for you!" She gleamed.

I just chuckled. I then put my attention to the last pony. She was hiding behind Applejack. She had yellow fur, pink wavy mane, and a pair of wings on her back like Rainbow Dash. She was wearing a white sleeveless shirt with a green dress.

"What's your name dear?" I asked her as she flinched a little and hid behind her mane.

"oh...um..I'm...." She muttered the rest.

"Excuse me I didn't quite catch that," I told her

"Oh..uh...I'm Fluttershy," She told me a bit louder.

I smiled at her and greeted her back. "It is nice to meet you Fluttershy"

She gave me a small nod in response.

After that Pinkie grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the chair I was sitting on. "Come on, let's play pin the tail on the pony."

Once the girls saw my actual height their eyes grew wide and their jaw dropped a little. I saw Rainbow Dash crossed her arms and had a proud smirk on her face like she won a bet. All of them were around my chest height maybe a bit lower.

"Told ya, pay up" Rainbow Dash grinned proudly as Applejack murmured something and gave her a couple of golden coins.

"That must be their currency," I told myself as I was being led by pinkie to the center of the room.

"So how do you play this pin the tail on the pony game?" I asked the pink party pony.

"It's easy. We blindfold you and spin you around a little bit. The goal of the game is to pin this fake tail on the pony's backside while blindfolded" Pinkie explained the rules to me.

This seemed easy enough.

I put on the blindfold as Pinkie and the rest of her friends spun me around for a couple of moments. Once I felt their hands left me I started to walk in the direction as they guided me towards the pony poster. Once my hands reached the poster I pinned the tail and took off the blindfold. To my surprise, I put the tail right between the pony's eyes.

"Oh...well at least he has a good haircut now," I told as I heard Pinkie and her friends laugh at my failed attempt.

The next couple of hours we spend partying, drinking, eating, and telling jokes to each other. After a while, the party was reaching its end as ponies slowly started to go home. I along with Twilight and the rest of her friends decided to stay and help Pinkie clean up. Soon everything was tied up and clean.

"That was one of the best parties I had. Thanks for that Pinkie" I told her with a smile on my face.

"Aww don't mention it, Tomzy" She responded with my new nickname.

"Well, It was a lovely night darlings but I have to get home. I need my beauty sleep and I still have a couple of orders to finish. I'll see you tomorrow." Rarity told us as she gave as wave goodbye and left.

"That was one fun party, I'll see you, tomorrow girls. Those apples won't harvest themselves" Applejack told us as she left as well.

"Thanks for the party Pinkie." Rainbow then looked at me "I'll see you tomorrow big guy" After that she flew away.

"Um...I also have to get home..my animal friends will get worried. It was nice to meet you Tomz" Fluttershy told me with that quiet and soft tone of her voice as she also flew back to her home.

Wait.....where the hell am I suppose to stay the night!? Well, there is also that old castle I can stay at.

"Hey, Twilight It just hit me that I don't have any place to stay"

Twilight looked at me with a smile. "You are more than welcome to stay at my library."

This took me by surprise "Really, are you sure? I don't want to impose or anything" I asked her.

"Oh nonsense Tomz. You are my friend and I don't leave my friends hanging." She responded back.

Wait...we are friends already? Who knew I only had to introduce myself to reach the Friend Zone.

After we said goodbye to Pinkie, Twilight and I walked back to her library home as she opened the front door as she let me in and closed the door behind me.

"Um I think it is the guy who is supposed to let the girl in first," I told her with a smirk.

Twilight giggled. "well aren't you a Gentlecolt. You can sleep on the couch tonight and I'll settle the guest room for you tomorrow." She told me as she handed me a pillow and a blanket.

"Thanks, Twilight but this is more than enough," I told her as she smiled at me.

"Well goodnight Tomz,I'll see you in the morning" She yawned and walked towards her room which was on the second floor judging by the stairs.

"Night Twilight." I bid her goodnight as I put the pillow on one end of the couch. I took off my jacket and put it on the floor beside the couch. I then sat down and took off my boots and place them beside my jacket. After that was done I finally lied down on the couch and covered myself with a blanket and drifted off to sleep.
