A new life in a new land

A new life in a new land ch 2

     I opened my arms to catch her, and caught her in my arms,  she was really excited to see me. She said,

” Oh my Celestia, you are a real human!  I KNEW HUMANS WERE REAL !!!!”

she was so cute so I  couldn’t resist hugging her and said,”  Lyra is that your name?” She nodded smiling “you are so cute.” she turned as red as an apple at that .

Twilight lifted Lyra with that magic of hers and said,” Lyra, I need him for research!”

“But Twilight I want to show Bonbon that humans are real!”

“Twilight.” She turned to me as I said,” I would like to go with her for a while” Twilight groaned and said,” Fine, at least I could write my letter to the princess.”

Lyra then asked me to follow her, so I followed the little light green unicorn through the town, the other ponies had looks of  confusion of their faces. Then we approached a small house, she opened the door with her magic and then I walked in, the doorway was a little shorter then a human one, so I had to bend down to get in.

“Bonbon” lyra shouted.

“What is it now Lyra ?” she came out and then stood there is shock when she saw me, she was a small, wingless, hornless pony, with a pink and blue mane and tail and had an image of three pieces of candy for what these ponies call a cutie mark.

”Lyra ..is that a real…”

“Yep” Lyra said

“Hello BonBon” I said, as I walked towards her. I turned to Lyra and winked at her as I approached Bonbon, Bonbon started to back up, I reached down and lifted her up to which she became as stiff as a board and had a funny scared look on her face. I laughed and set her down next to Lyra . Lyra giggled at her expression.

“You should see the look on your face BonBon” Lyra said to her.

Lyra then said,” I am going to take him up to my room, I have so much to ask him!!!”

Lyra then galloped up the stairs and I followed her to her room and we walked in. She ran over and locked the door  and then sat on the bed, strange, she was sitting up like a human, I wonder if any of these other ponies do that.

“So, Tell me all about you and your world.” Lyra said.

I told her about my world, but in a more positive light, thinking back to words of Carl Sagan.

“We have found cures and vaccines for many illnesses, we  invent and refine agriculture, we discover hidden chapters within our own origins, We have even walked on our moon by figured out how objects move in space, liquefying oxygen from the air, we built the big rockets needed and we set out to the moon and the stars. We have robots on mars, a planet 35 million miles way from ours. We even have a strong idea of how our entire Universe came to be, we call it, the Big Bang, and our technology is incredible, we can talk to one another from across the world with our computers and cell phones.”

She was just staring at me with her mouth open. I looked at her and patted her on the head and said,” I take it you find the information insightful.”

She smiled brightly and I heard a “Squee” sound like what a dog toy would make, and said,” OH YES!!! This is all so amazing, I never knew humans were capable of all that! Its incredible!

   Just then we heard a pounding at the door, Lyra looked confused them looked at me, she said,” BonBon, have you finally come to see that Humans are real. As she opened the door she got stiff as a board, as two larger Pegasus stallions dressed in gold amour with roman style helmets were standing at the door.

“The Royal Guard?” Lyra said.

“Ma’am, we have been sent Princess Celestia, We understand you left Twilight Sparkle’s library with a Human, We need to Interrogate this human in Canterlot with the Princess.” One of the Pegasus Guards had said.

“Interrogate me”  I thought. One of them then approached me, this pony said,” sir you need to come with us right now.”

Lyra looked at me with a sad face that made my heart go awwww. I said to her,” its okay, I’m sure whatever this is about will be over soon and I will be back.”

    I followed the two Pegasus guards outside to which a golden carriage waiting. I decided to go along with this, not like I can much of a choice, I was in their world now, I assume these gaurds must be the pony version of law enforcement, as someone who tried to become a police officer in my world, I had to respect them. They hooked themselves up to the carriage and started to fly, and carriage started to lift as I saw the town of ponyville get smaller below me.  The carriage was moving quite fast, though I wondered how the Pegasus guards ran on air while they flew, but the physics of this world might be different from where I came from. Soon I watched as we flew towards a large mountain with a castle on the side of it. I though to myself, “I hope they don’t have a large earthquake anytime soon.”

    We arrived on a small platform and landed, they unhooked from the carriage and asked me to follow them. I watched as I saw more of them all over, some were grey unicorn guards. I asked one of the guards a question?

“So this Princess of yours, is she your ruler or is she the daughter of a king or queen of yours?”

The guard responded saying,”No, she is the co ruler of our country along with her sister Princess Luna, Princess Celestia raises the sun and governs Equestria during the day and sets the sun and Princess Luna raises the moon and governs during the night. Although they are over a thousand years old, so we don’t know who their parents were.”

“Ah..okay, I said.

     We reached two giant door and they started to glow yellow and blue and opened, as I walked in, I was amazed by how big this place was. Then I looked ahead and saw two large ponies standing at the end of the room, they looked as big as regular horses would be. The tallest one was white and was wearing a gold crown, breast plate and gold shoes on her hooves, her mane was a mix of colors and it seemed to move on its own, she was very beautiful, though I wasn’t sure what you would call her, as she had a long unicorn horn and wings. Next to her was another winged unicorn, she was a little smaller had a dark blue coat and a dark blue mane and tail the resembled the night sky itself, she had a more serious look on her face.

    I approached the two Princess, The white one who I think was Princess Celestia was looking straight at me, then to her guards and dismissed them . She then dismissed her guards and asked me to follow her and her sister. We walked down the hall and into a room that looked very nice, it looked much nicer then any hotel room I have ever seen.

then Celestia turned to me and said,” So you are the Human my student wrote to me about.”

“Yes” I responded and continued,” I don’t know how I got here.”

“I see.” said Princess Celestia

The dark blue princess approached me,” Tell me human, are there more of you here?”

“No, not that I know of, I ended up here alone.” I responded.

Princess Celestia then responded,” Very well, then I have something important to tell you, but you must keep it secret from everypony you meet.”

I looked at her and said,” understood.”
