Enigma Problems

chapter one.

Awakenings and theories

Toby awoke to a strange noise and a bright flash coming from his bathroom. He rose groggily from his bed and checked the time.

"3 AM? Just fucking brilliant." he said to himself as he dug through his closet looking for his cricket bat. "this better be good" Toby thought as he approached the bathroom door. He gave a bang on the door with his bat "hey! anyone in there?" he called through the door.

A muffled grumble was the only response he got.

"Great. First somethings in my house, now its probably drunk. Fucking perfect" he mumbled under his breath.

"Last warning asshole! Come out or I come in!" He called again

Toby couldn't quite make out what the response was, he thought it was something along the line of "Gotta study".

"Study? Great, my house has been broken into by a drunken university student." Toby thought. "Alright! I'm coming in!" he shouted. He grabbed the handle and turned, the room was almost completely black, save for the moonlight pouring in through the window. He scanned the room for any signs of life, until his eyes settled upon a strange nude woman, curled up in the fetal position.

"Perfect! I've been broken into by a drunk, nudist (or kinky) university student with narcolepsy, why must this happen at 3 AM?" He thought as he examined the scene. His charitable side begins to take over when he notices her shivering. He grabs a clean(ish) towel and drapes it over her.

"What are you doing here?" he says in a "tsk. tsk." tone as he goes to pick her up.

"I'll put her on the couch, at least then I can keep an eye on her"  He reasoned as he wandered off to the lounge room. He set her down on the couch gentley, she mumbles vaguely then yawns softly.

"Cute..."He thinks.

Twilight awakes again to find the bathroom had disappeared, "Am...I back home?" She thought, her vision blurred.

"You're awake. Good." said a voice that from Twilight's perspective, came from a giant blur. From the sound of its voice she determined it was male.

"Wha-.....where am I?" she asked, she went to rub her eyes with her hoof, which she did without issue, but something was odd about her hooves. They were....soft and fleshy.

"well that depends on why I found you in MY home at 3 AM Little Missy"

"Oh.....sorry, I was just worki-OHMYGOSHWHEREAREMYHOOVES!?" She said, noticing that her hooves were now soft, pink, fleshy hands.

"New theory. Stoner"

"Hooves?" He questioned, drawing her attention towards him, her vision now focused.

"Sweet Celestia! What are you!?" She blurted out thoughtlessly. The creature took a blank expression.

"I'm called Toby. Give me your name and one good reason I shouldn't take you to the funny-farm, Missy" Toby stated blankly.

"I-I'm Twilight, Twilight Sparkle" She replied sheepishly. Toby collapsed in laughter. Twilight, while confused by this humor, decided to examine the new creature mentally.

He had very little hair, save for his dirty blonde stubble and mane (which was messy enough to rival Rainbow Dash's). His body was long and slender, and not extremely well muscled, but reasonably fit-looking (note: stop making your characters muscley fic-writers).

"BAHAHAHA!! Twilight fucking Sparkle!?" Toby guffawed on the floor. "next thing you'll be telling me you're from a land of magic and rainbow explosions!" He said, beginning to regain control of his fit of laughter.

"Why are magic and rainbooms so funny to you!? They're serious business!" Twilight scolded. To no affect, as Toby continued laughing for a good 2 minutes.

"A-alright alright! How about we talk some more over breakfast? Say, some chicken?" He suggested

"...what?...."

End of chapter one!!!!! Finally!

A/N: I'm sooooo sorry this took so long! School conspires against me and skyrim takes up my non-homework time. Also, I'm looking for pre-readers, I can't really show my Real life friends because they'll be too gentle (need non-biased feedback) so if you're interested go ahead and shoot me a pm and I'll get back to you after a little test of your abilities (note to self: think up test)
