My brother and I

Sorry for the long wait but I have excuses! First I went to the great wolf lodge, then I went on a five day cruise to the Bahamas (with no laptop), and now there’s all this school work I missed, midterms are here and I just got my laptop back from having a C in German class. It’s been crazy. Oh yah, and writers block there was some of that too. So again I’m really sorry for those who cared about this story.

I looked up at the alicorn and suddenly I really didn’t care if she (if you couldn’t tell it was a she by looking at her then there’s something wrong with your eyes) was imposable or illogical, all I cared about was that she could help my brother.

“Please. Help him.” I said scooting back so she could get a better view of him.

Her horn glowed a faint yellow and she lowered her head to Billy. He began to glow with the same light that surrounded the horn.

“His physical injuries are not that bad though he is unconscious.” She stepped back and the glow from her horn diminished. “He will be fine.”

Thank god that that’s over, now I can plan out what I’m going to do next. Well, this could still be some sort of drug induced dream, but I didn’t really want to risk jumping out a window to see if I could fly only to figure out I’m not dreaming. I really hope I’m dreaming though.

“So… um… what happens now?”

“You come back to the party with us of course!”

“AGH!PINKINMYFACE!”

I don’t know how she got so close to my face without me noticing, especially considering what color she was, but the pink pony was now hopping around me in a circle spewing out words faster than I could keep up.

“Hi! I’m Pinkie Pie! What’s your name? What are you? Why are you so tall? What’s your favorite flavor of ice-cream? Who is he? Is he your friend? What’s his name? Is that your stuff over there?”

Now that last question I heard.

“Stuff? Where?”

“Over there.” She pointed to a small, almost pathetic pile of things over by a cracked pillar.

“Let’s see shall we?” I got up and started to make my way to the pile.

Unfortunately there wasn’t anything to useful in said pile. Well, when I say useless I mean nothing that could use as of now to get me home. In the pile was this; 37 cents (quarter, 2 nickels, 7 penny’s), a rubix cube that I am 90% sure was not solved earlier, a model ship Billy got from our trip to the Bahamas about a month ago, Billy’s alarm clock, and probably the most useful thing ever, a roll of duct tape.

I looked around a bit more and behind the pillar I found my laptop bag! Actually it’s just a black gym bag that I use to carry my laptop when I go places but I’m still calling it a laptop bag. Anyways inside there was no laptop, to my dismay, but instead my Dungeons and Dragons stuff; the three core rule books, the second addition monster manual, about four sets of dice, pencils, paper, and my school TI-83 Plus graphing calculator.

“Well, this sooo useful.”

“What is all that?”

I turned around to see the purple unicorn, the one with the pink streak through her hair (mane? Gah! Whatever!), curiously looking over my shoulder, trying to get a peak of what was inside the bag.

I scooted back a bit so she could see.

Just some books and dice and-“ I stopped mid-sentence because I noticed how she stopped paying attention after I said books.

“YOU BROUGHT BOOKS? CAN I SEE? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE?”

“Um, yah sure, here.” I said handing her the core monster manual a little intimidated by her enthusiasm (and I thought I loved books).

“Thanks!” She said before her horn started glowing violet while a similar glow encompassed the book that began floating in front of her.

Now, my sanity was already skating on thin ice as it was, but now it’s like sanity is eating chili cheese dogs while doing jumping jacks on thin ice. I mean magic. MAGIC!! That is so cool, imposable, but cool! God, I love magic.

You see, Billy thinks he has classified what type of nerds we are (we admit it because we sit inside on computers all day rather then play outside or do some other sporty thing). He is what I like to call the ‘useless fact repository’, full of interesting, though somewhat pointless, information, like how much a bee weighs or why magnets work.

While I, on the other hand, am the fantasy/book nerd, loving all things mythical, magical and printed on paper. I play games like Skyrim and Dungeons and Dragons, while trying to learn all I can about the mythical beast and creatures, and would rather read a book then watch a football game.

Anyway, the unicorn (I still need to get her name) stared at the book a bit, flipping through a few pages before her face scrunched up in confusion.

“What language is this written in?” she asked.

“English.”

“English?”

“Yes, English, you know the language I am currently speaking to you with.”

She looked at me for a few seconds before cocking her head to one side.

“But you’re speaking Equestrian.”

I opened my mouth to retort, probably with something witty like ‘no YOU’RE speaking English.’ When the rainbow maned Pegasus called out:

“If you two eggheads are done with your books over there we’re all ready to go home.”

“Yah, I got a party to set up!”

The unicorn and I looked at each other for a second before I packed up all the stuff on the floor into my laptop bag, excluding the monster manual which I let the unicorn hold on to (with magic!) and went to join the other ponies that were still grouped near Billy.

“So where are we going?” I questioned.

“Ponyville, duh, that’s where the party’s going to be!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed, with the same smile that I’d seen on her since I got here.

“Ponyville, right, and how will we get there?” I asked.

The purple unicorn who still had my book in her magic aura smiled somewhat mischievously.

“Oh, you’ll see.”

“What is that sopo-“

   I was interrupted yet again as I was blinded (yet again) by a bright flash light. There was a slight pain, mostly in my eyes, but also in my forehead. As the light subsided my vision.

“Whoa……”

In retrospect it wasn’t really a ‘whoa’ worthy sight, just a quaint, medieval looking village with thatch roofs and wooden walls. What was ‘whoa’ worthy however was the multitude of multi-colored equines that were the town’s inhabitants, all helping prepare what looked like a festival of some sorts.

It also just occurred to me that we have teleported…

Sanity gained a few pounds from eating those cheese dogs.

My spacing out was interrupted by a light tap on my shoulder.

“I will take him to medical care.” The white alicorn (dang I really need to learn names here) said referring to Billy, who was draped across her back. “You should become acquainted with the others. I will be out after to tell the town of you.”

She walked (trotted?) away to what I assume was a hospital with a much smaller younger looking alicorn that I guess I hadn’t noticed before following her.

I turned to the other ponies behind me to see that Pinkie had left, I assume to help the festivities she was so excited about.

Much awkward shuffling commenced before I did what I usually do to break awkward tension; something stupid and/or embarrassing.

“So… nice place you got here. My name is Mitchell, but most people just call me Mitch for short.”

There were a few murmurs of thanks before the purple unicorn whom I let hold on to my book stepped forward.

“Well, my name is Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends Applejack, “

The orange pony tipped her Stenson, greeting me with a southern “Howdy.”

“Rarity,”

The white unicorn politely waved her hoof to me and gave a refined “Hello.”

“Fluttershy,”

To this I was greeted with an “Eep!” as the yellow Pegasus tried to shrink further behind Rarity.

“Rainbow Dash,”

It might have been the narrowed eyes and small nod I got instead of a ‘hello’ but I had a feeling Rainbow didn’t trust me much, which is understandable all things considered.

“And you’ve already met Pinkie pie.”

“Indeed I have.” I affirmed with a nod. I then looked toward the village and all the celebrations

You know, it’s been a long day, many imposable things have happened, I still kind of think this is a dream and I think my brain may be broken. But so help me if I didn’t want to enjoy myself before it all came crashing down.

“And I believe she said something about a party.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There then commenced to be a party which I shalt not go into detail, but instead I will summarize the important things that took place.

First, I was informed that Billy is fine and awake though he will remain in the hospital for the night.

Second, the town was informed of my presence and the fact that I was no harm. I think they’re taking this really well, and by well I mean that almost all conversation stops and I have an open path wherever I go. It could be worse though.

Third, Pinkie brought me a slice of cake with ‘welcome to Equestria’ written on it (yes, on one slice).

And finally, I learned that Twilight would be staying in Ponyville to study the magic of friendship… and Equestria’s two newest residence, aka: me and Billy.

After the party died down Twilight invited me to spend the night at her place (she was the one to be learning from me I suppose). Which I graciously accepted, though the only question answered that night was me asking Twilight where I could sleep.

As I fell onto the spare mattress Twilight brought out, sleep becoming unavoidable despite the numerous questions whizzing about my mind like so many bees.

My eyelids slowly drooped and I drifted off to sleep.

**Brain.exe* is rebooting, please stand by.*

Tomorrow will be very interesting.

Ok this took way[u/] longer than it should have, and I’m so sorry for those of you who waited for this. I personally don’t think it’s my best work, but I had to get something out otherwise I might of quit writing. Anyways no one has given me any suggestions for what episode they want me to do next so unless I get some on this chapter I’ll just start with the third episode.

Hope to see you guys next time!

Spleedude :P
