Hey everypony this is a fic that me and a buddy diamondMAN have been thinking about working on for a while now so enjoy

Hi. I am Steel Diamond and I would like to tell you how I ended up in Equestria.

*flashback to 3 days before the train wreck*

I was working my usual shift for UPS (United Parcel Service), hauling packages to customers that ordered them. After finishing my shift for the day, my boss called and asked me if I could work the night shift for tonight. I thought to myself. “this could get me some more money that I need.”

I accepted and started the night shift. In that night alone, I had delivered 50 to 100 packages. I felt good with myself and punched out at around midnight. I got home at 1am, and got to bed around 1:30.

THE NEXT DAY (2 days before the crash)

I had arrived at work the next morning tired, but ready for the day. My boss called me into his office as I was about to start my shift. “Steel, it has come to my attention that you are in need of a new truck.” I nodded and said, “Yeah. I need a new truck. My other truck almost died three times last night.”

I was given the keys to my new truck, which happened to be an 18 wheeler big rig truck. As usual, I worked my shift, delivering packages and all that good stuff. I got a call from my boss as I was about to deliver my last package and he said I had the night shift again, and he said there were important packages that couldn’t wait for the morning.

So, here I am. Driving a semi truck at night with a trailer full of fragile goods. I got back to the depot at about 11:30 pm, got home at 12, went to bed at 1:30.

*2 days later* Day of the crash

I was starting my shift when my boss asked me to go to the main warehouse to get a load of supplies for a construction site. I agreed to the job.

I started driving on the interstate. About halfway to the main UPS warehouse, I saw a car broken down car on a set of train tracks and I heard a train coming. I had a choice. Either let the person die and keep my job, or save the person and risk paying the ultimate price. I chose to save the person. I drove up to the SUV that was stuck on the tracks and shunted it out of the way. I had no time to jump clear as a fully loaded coal train hit my truck, killing me INSTANTLY.

*in an unknown location*

I was lying on I think was either red carpet, or a solid stone floor. I got up and looked around, surprised to even be alive after that train crash. At first, the colors were trippy. “what the fuck am I seeing?” I walked around for about 30 to 40 minutes when I heard someone talking. I didn’t catch the name of whoever was talking at the time, but whoever it was sounded like they were royalty or something.

I shrugged and kept walking along until I was either hopelessly lost, or until I could figure out where the hell the entrance to this place was. I came across two very large golden doors. “this must be the entrance to this place” I pushed open the doors and found out that it wasn’t the entrance, but the throne room.

I looked around to see if anyone was there, but sadly, no one was there. I was about to walk out when the golden doors shut behind me. I thought ‘oh fuck’ and tried to open the large doors, but to no avail.

After failing to open the large doors, I looked to see if there was another way out. There were large windows, but I instantly thought against jumping out the window and potentially to my unfortunate death. “What do I do now? I can’t open those doors since they are made of solid gold, and I am not jumping out the window to my death. How do I get out now? I am so confused!”

As soon as I had finished that sentence, I heard faint footsteps or.. hoofsteps I couldn’t tell, but they were headed this way. I hid myself behind the throne and wondered what would happen from there. I decided I would try to get out of this huge castle at night.

I heard the doors open and I heard someone coming my way. I didn’t say a word as the hoofsteps got closer and closer to me. I almost pissed myself when I heard someone say this: “somepony find whoever it was that left that THING in the castle!”

I kept still and silent as whoever it was began searching for me. This lasted until about midnight. I managed to sneak out of the castle without being seen, or so I thought. As I approached the exit to the castle, I was surrounded by guards. I facepalmed and blamed myself for being such an idiot.

“Fuck! I was so close too! I guess this is what I get for trying to be stealthy.” I thought as I heard metallic hoofsteps coming in my general direction. I turned to see two ponies with a horn and wings each. I thought ‘I’ve officially gone crazy’ I stood there looking at them completely dumbstruck. They were looking at me the same way.

I rubbed the back of my neck with my hand. “this is awkward.” The large white one asked, “who are you?” I replied “I am Steel Diamond. Who are you?”
“I am Princess Celestia, Mr.Steel Diamond and might i ask how you got in here?” Celestia asked staring right at me i was too scared to move it felt like she was staring right into my sould
