Previous Chapter

"Um, h-hey, I- uh"

Oh no, what do I do? I don't know anybody here! What if they question me and don't like me? Could I be considered as a threat? Nobody knows me, so I'm just a stranger here.

"Dude, are you okay?" The dragon asked.
"Um, actually I have to... Be somewhere!"

Before I knew it, I took off. I had to find somewhere where I can think this all over before I make a impression that I didn't want to stick on me, or however that works. I don't know what these creatures are like, but judging from the way humans act, I didn't want to find out.

I made my way down the hallways and through crowds of students before i found a room that nobody was in, and it had a key in the door. I flew in there and shut the door behind me as I saw a flash of green/blue light.

As I caught my breath, I looked around and saw that the room i was in was less- castle-like- than the rest of the place. The walls were brown or crimson in different lights™ and the floor had a navy blue carpet. There was a bunk bed and a dresser, and a nightstand with fluorite and rose quartz (cool rocks), along with a fancy light stand for it. That must be what caused the light as i got in here.

Anyways, now what? I'm suddenly in a world of creatures that are all interested in me because I'm an alicorn, so I cant just blend in, and I have no idea what to say. What if I just introduce myself and let that be it? What if they're nice? Or not? What if I'm the only one here? Should I be cautious? Okay, so the first people I met were nice, but they were ponies. Other creatures might... Maybe I just need to sleep. Its been- I don't even know how long.

I stopped pacing the room, and layed down on the bottom bunk. I was so tired I probably could've fallen asleep right there if it weren't so cold. There was a blanket, but it felt off. It was warm. Naturally warm, as if it were alive. It probably was something I haven't seen made yet, or wasn't possible where i was from. Strange.

I was panicked and wasn't thinking straight, so I got comfortable and fell asleep.I was really surprised that nobody had found me yet. Tomorrow, I'm going to go out and talk to someone. Speaking of which, I thought applejack was going to send one of her friends to help me. Well, there's always tomorrow.


This morning, I don't know why but I was tired and nopony woke me up. Maybe my- oh.
All of a sudden, my memories came back to me. Where I was, who I met... How I panicked and where I was. And what I said I would do today. And this blanket- I'm keeping this. Wait where is it? Nevermind that- why is it so quiet? where is everyone?

I got up, and as soon as I did, the door opened. This wasn't anypony I've met before; she was a violet pony with different shades of purple in her hair. Oh, she was also an alicorn! Maybe there are more here? I might ask about that later. she looked familiar too.

"Hey, are you okay"

On second thought, maybe I don't know her.

"No, I don't know if I am"
"Wanna talk about it?"
"Who are you? Where am I? Who were those- the 5 other creatures outside the building?"
You must mean ocellus, smolder, Gallus, Silverstream and Yona, right?"
"Uh, what?"
"Come with me."

She led me down a few hallways, and thankfully nopony was there. We went outside and she took me into the big star castle, several different hallways, and into this strange looking throne room. There were about 7 thrones around a crystal table, and 4 ponies were sitting in them waiting for us. Oh, and there was a dragon there. Nothing too much, just some new people.

"So, I'm sure that your confused, right?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, I hardly know how I got here. You might not believe me, but I'm from-"
"Another dimension?"

So now its my turn to be surprised. I've known this pony for 2 minutes, she wasn't surprised seeing me, was very understanding, and guessed my-

Unless this is the twilight that applejack told me about. That makes more sense...

"Look outside." She told me.

The 4th wall was a whole window, so I looked out and the sun had just set. The strange thing was that I could see the same stars that I could see from home. How does that make any sense? Is this the same universe, and even more so is this the same galaxy? Why are the stars the same? How does this pony see what I saw?

It was twilight (haha so funny) outside, and I was sitting in a castle next to a school on at least another planet with a pony who I met not a half hour ago, sitting In front of a window that looks like I have shaders on with 5 ponies and a dragon. this is a lot for me to process, and I'm just waiting for an explanation.

"So, I brought you here to tell you what's been going on."
"Thank god."
"Me and my friends brought you here for a reason. We need you, and I think you need us."
"Do you mean you can help me get back home-
or wherever I need to be?"
"Well no, but actually yes."
"I don't follow."

"We can help you get yourself back home, but we cant bring you there, since your the one who brought you here. We just.. showed you the way."
"Um, okay. Why me?"
"We'll cross that bridge when we get to it."

Okay...

"So you know who I am?"
"Oh! Speaking of which, where are my manners-
I'm Twilight Sparkle!"


I introduced myself to her and all her friends, and I don't think it will be hard to remember their names. Everypony here was nice to me, and everyCREATUR... I didn't even try to talk to... Why do I feel guilty? Its just me avoiding people. This isn't new.

"So, what do you need me for exactly?"
"I'll tell you once everyone's here."

Right as she said that, Fluttershy and Applejack walked in talking about something I couldn't make sense of.

"Oh, you're back! How was it? Did you learn anything?"
Then applejack said "Well, it was great! we fixed the problem with the- um, that's my seat."

Then I realizes she was looking at me. All the thrones were marked with the symbols that they have on their flanks for some reason. I don't even know what they are.
"Oh, sorry."

So I got up and stood for the rest of the conversation making it ever so slightly more awkward.

Then Rainbow dash said "So, can you tell us about your world? what sports did you play? when did-"

And at that moment, we heard a royal fanfare in the distance, and something, like a cart, was pulling up. I could hear it shaking. I think someone important was arriving. Was it the person in charge of everything? was it a super important message? Did this place have royalty?
Well; kind of, yes, and definitely. You'll see.

"There's our final guests! Now I'll be better able to explain to you and we can show you around." Twilight said grinning. I hope stuff like this is normal. Not for me, I'll decide when I think things are normal.

Author's Note

I'm still working on longer chapters, and when I get better, I'm lowering the deadline for them getting released. Shouldn't be too long actually, it was pretty easy to think of stuff this time. I have a general understanding of where I want this story to go, I just need to put it into words. One more thing, I'm also looking for an editor. One to make some chapters longer, and put in some better wording.
