You and Rainbow Dash are in a battle across the dimensions to save Equestria.

You are regular. Everything about you, your life, and your hobbies, are just regular. Nothing more, nothing less. But you were content.

And oh, were you were in for it.

A/N: Hey everypony! This is my first fic and I'd really like to hear your thoughts on where this is going so far. It's in Second Person and I plan to add some romance in the future. I hope you enjoy :3

An Average Day

A/N: Well hello there, good reader. This fic isn’t exactly inspired by anything, but I suppose I wrote it because I’ve been

asked for “Creative Input” for the last few weeks. I guess has driven me to write a fic of my own. It’s my first, so criticism is

welcome. Expect the worst. xD

You are regular. Everything about you, your life, and your hobbies, are just regular. Nothing more, nothing less. But you were content. Life was easy, you can get average grades in school without trying, you played your fair share of sports, and you can hold a conversation. Oh, and you were obsessed with a TV show called My Little Pony. Still normal, right? To state the obvious, you hadn’t told anyone. If people knew you liked that show, you’d be dubbed homosexual for the rest of your life! Yeah, no. You were just fine with being a closet brony. But sometimes, things happen in people’s lives that isn’t so normal. And oh, were you were in for it.

The sound of your favorite song interrupts your slumber, causing you to groan and slap the “off” button on your alarm clock. Reluctantly, you crawl out of the warm bliss of your bed and get ready to face the boring day that is sure to come. Quickly washing off any remnants of sleep from your appearance, you walk downstairs to eat breakfast. Another boring day. You sigh. Hearing the school bus pulling up outside your house, you quickly take your last bites and head outside.

You pick an empty seat near some of your friends and reach into your bag to pull out your treasured iPod. Hitting shuffle, you put the device in your pocket and proceed to do what you do every day. Stare out the window. You sigh to yourself yet again and rest your arm on the window. You hear the “Smile Song” come on and you can’t help but feel a little gleeful. That happiness is quickly drained as one of your earpieces is swiped out of your ear.

“Hey dude what are you listening to?” One of your friends says, putting the earpiece in his ear. You watch in silent horror as his face turns from one of disgust to one of amusement. He burst out laughing. “Pahahaha! You’re a BRONY? That’s so... GAY!” he says throwing the earpiece back at you. You are at a loss for words, to say the least. “HEY EVERYONE! THIS KID HERE,” He yells, pointing at you. “LIKES MY LITTLE PONY!” Most of the kids on your bus burst out into uncontrollable laughter. You do your best to slink down as far as you can into your chair.

Your mind is put into mental breakdown mode, still processing what just happened. Okay, everyone knows I’m a brony now. What do I do? I can move to a deserted mountain! Or maybe kill everyone on the bus! Suicide isn’t out of the picture either... You bury your face in your arms. My life is over, I will never be happy again. Your thoughts are interrupted by a rough shaking of the bus. Latching onto the seatbelts below you, you hold on for dear life as the bus is rocked in all directions. The shaking comes to a stop and you fall to an abrupt stop.

“Ugh... Wha- What just happened?” You hear the green unicorn in a nearby seat say. Wait a minute. GREEN UNICORN

You double take and rub your eyes to make sure you aren’t seeing things. Then, another white colt rises from the floor.

“WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU?” He shouts, pointing a shaking hoof at you. He seems to notice his distinct lack of hands. “WHAT THE FUCK AM I?” You looked down at your hands. Or at least where your hands used to be. Replacing it was a set of hooves. Mixed feelings. For starters, you were ecstatic that you are a pony and probably in Equestria! On the other hand, you had no idea why or how you were. Looking around, you could tell that everyone else has become a pony as well. Confused even more, you look out the window to see absolute darkness other than wide expanse of flat surface, which has a grey shade to it.

“Exhibit A, right here. You see that? It’s easy as that to cross dimensions. And now that I’ve taken over Equestria, I can continue to spread my Chaos elsewhere.” a familiar voice boasted.

“You won’t get away with this, Discord!” was that... Rainbow Dash? You mentally squeed with joy at the thought of seeing your favorite pony. But your thoughts trailed back to what Discord had said... He had taken over Equestria? But how? What happened to the the Elements of Harmony? Was the rest of the Mane 6 with her? a flurry of questions went through your head.

“Why, I already have. Take a look around you. Do you see the your precious town of Ponyville anymore? No. Do you have the Elements of Harmony to stop me? No. Do you have your little friends anymore? No. You have nothing left, and you say you’re going to stop me? Please, entertain me.” Discord stated mockingly, a devious grin growing on his face. You pushed aside one of your pony classmates and looked out the window for a sign of Rainbow Dash. Sure enough, she and the villianous figure stood a few meters apart, the former with a sorrowful look on her face. She began to trot away from Discord when she spotted the bus you and your dumbstruck classmates. You give a friendly wave and smile in her direction and she looks at you quizzically. You motion for her to come toward the bus with a wave of your hand, er... hoof. Making a quick flight over to the bus, you crawl out the emergency window to meet your idol.

“Oh my gosh, is it really you, Rainbow Dash?” the inner fanboy inside you talking.

“Uhh...” She begins, obviously confused, “Yep, in the flesh!” The sheer excitement taking over your mind, you blurt out the first thing that pops in your head,

“YOU’RE SO AWESOME!” her countenance wore an expression of surprise, before she burst out into hysterical laughter. You realize the stupidity of what you said and look down at your hooves. Clearing your throat and straightening your poise, you intend to get some answers.

“Where is everyone else?” You say. Your seriousness catches Rainbow off guard, who is still rolling on the floor laughing.

“What do you mean?” She says, still trying to regain her composure. She seems to remember the situation at hand and sighs. “Right. I don’t know. But I assume my friends as well as the rest of Ponyville are either dead or imprisoned somewhere.” She looked longingly into the distance.

“I...” Oh crap, What am I supposed to say to that?” “I... Wha... How?” you managed to say.

“Discord’s back. He did THIS to Equestria, and took everypony away.” Rainbow stated bluntly.

“What about you?” you inquired.

“Hm?”

“Why weren’t you taken?”

“Well, you said it yourself! I’m the super awesome Rainbow Dash and he couldn’t catch up to me!” She says, puffing out her chest. “Can’t say the same for everyone else, though...” You place a comforting hoof on her shoulder and she looks at you thankfully.

“Is there anything we can do?” You ask hopefully.

“Not really, no.” There was a brief silence as you think of what to say to that.

“If it makes you feel any better, whatever we have to do to get you friends back, I’d do it. For you.” She looks at you with a questioning gaze, “A-and for the good of Equestria!” you quickly add on. Dash giggles and punches you in the arm as a “thank you”.

“Where are you from? I haven’t seen you in Ponyville before.”

“Well, I uh...” Should I tell her about being a human? But what if she freaks out! “You see...” you are interrupted by a flash of light, followed by Discord appearing where it once was.

“Well well, it looks like you’ve made a friend! How adorable. Now, I have a proposition for you ponies. I’ve devised a little game for you to play. Oh how fun it will be! As you are well aware, I am capable of cross-dimensional actions. And so, there are 6 dimensions to travel to! In each, you’ll have to find one of the 6 Elements of Harmony and its pathetic embodiment. Exciting! Once you have all 6 and your little friends regrouped, then you can use your magical friendship to destroy me. Sound simple enough?” I don’t get it. He’s just letting us take back Equestria? Just like that?

“I accept your little game, Discord.” Rainbow Dash states. A devilish grin began spreading across his face. He snaps his fingers and you appear in a regular looking Equestria. Behind you, a dozen ponies begin to scream. You had managed to forget about your classmates until now. You’re going to have a lot of explaining to do...
“One small thing,” Discord began, “Everything in every dimension is going to want to kill you. Now have fun!” He snaps as fingers and disappears.

Well, this isn’t going to be good.

A/N: So what’d you think? Terrible? I agree! In all seriousness, please leave a rating and your response in the comment section below. I’d accept all criticism! How is the pacing? How is the grammar? How is the spelling? How is the plot? Tell me everything! Also, do you mind if the first mini paragraph and the description are the same? And of course, the most important question, should I continue? If you guys don’t like where it’s going I can end it right here and right now. Thanks for reading!
