Flight to Epuestriaby Bric_A_Brac_INKSPLASHChaptersThe flight (prologue)Next stop Fucking pony world73 questions to ask a humanThe flight (prologue)A month ago, if you had told me I would be on a crashing plane headed into the ocean, I would have believed you were insane. But here I was in that very circumstance, just sitting there thinking about how I got into this, so let me explain how I got here. One month ago, I awoke to a fairly average Monday morning. I sat up groggily, my alarm clock driving holes in my skull and almost slamming it off my table, but I managed to restrain myself. I cleaned my teeth and got ready, as is my regular routine, but then I received a text from my brother Silas, who said he was heading to Disney in Florida for a vacation and wanted me to come. I was always the anti-social brother, and despite being too terrified to attend when I was younger, I accepted. However, I have teleophobia, which means I am afraid of flying, but it was my brother. How could I say no? So I agreed oh, how I should have realized this would end up being one of the worst mistakes I ever made in my life. After packing my belongings, I arrived at the airport a week later. And as a writer, I brought my phone, books, laptop, and clothing. I met with my brother, said hello, and we hugged. "You look worse for wear, Liam!" Silas smiled. We headed into the building and went into security That part was easy after all and that wasn’t the part I was scared of. We then got out of security and sat down, my brother got on his phone and played games while waiting to board the plane, I was shaking like a leaf, ready to fall any second. "I swear if I have a panic attack in here I will end myself on the spot." We got on the plane and I walked in, feeling the walls close around me, I felt sick to my stomach. My brother looked at me and said, "Bro don’t look so sad you’re going to Disneyland for Christ sake and car crashes happen way more than plane crashes." I just look at him with annoyance. I love my brother, but he can be so annoying. We both sat down, and to my horror, I got the window seat, though because of my shyness, I did not complain. The pilot started talking, but I was too scared to pay attention. Instead, I found comfort in closing my eyes reaching down putting my seat belt on so tight I could hardly breathe. The plane started moving, we are in the sky. It has been a couple of hours, even though it felt like a lifetime. I had plenty to do, like trying not to throw up on my brother or cry. The speakers in the plane buzzed to life, and the pilot spoke, “Ok folks, we’re about to have some turbulence. Please just stay calm and I will try and keep us in the air!” "What?...What does that mean...?" “it’s probably nothing calm down.” my brother said . Then it happened. At first, it was a slight shudder, like the plane itself was vibrating. I put my hand on the wall of my seat; it felt warm then hot I burned my hand. ”Ow!" I said, pulling my hurt hand away. Then we heard an explosion the left-wing engine was on fire. the pilot started again “Everyone needs to stay calm I’m going to try and land on the water God save us all!” I was scared and frozen All I could do was cry everything was quiet I was ignoring everything I was shaking and I felt sick, like I was going to die. The motion of the plane started going downward but it was not the pilot doing it, We were crashing and I knew it I hugged my brother and waited for impact but it never came and with a flash of red, hot white light, I felt numb. Channel Five news: "Hello, America I’m Jessica Mary thank you for watching channel 5 news. Well folks, we have some bad news as a plane was found crashing near the coast of Florida, Witnesses say one of the wings caught a blaze and the plane was crashing into the ocean and that the plane disappeared before it hit the ground, a video of the incident was submitted to our news station not long after, we can not disclose who it was who sent the video, but we can say that what your about to see is shocking!" The news woman points to a screen behind her while playing the video. The video shows a plane on fire falling out of the sky and right before it hits the ground, a flash of purple and white light enveloped the plane and it was gone. "This is a mystery, folks the likes we haven't seen sense the Malaysia Airlines 370 incident nine years ago, email us at channel five news for any additional info about this event that you can give on the situation." I could not see properly and I felt like my entire body was in a washing machine. I looked around for my brother and when I turned, I saw nothing . ”Well, he was gone.” The plane crashed, everything was on fire, and dead bodies were everywhere I tried to get out of the wreckage. It was hard to move I hurt so much I could not stand as I crawled out I saw that my leg was broken but I’m not dead, luckily. "First I need to find Silas" I look around." I would look around seeing the crash around, I see that I am practically up side down hanging from the seat belt, and from the hole in the side of the plane I could see deep brush of trees. "I’m in a forest; I need to calm down," I think to myself. "Fuck, first I agreed to this stupid trip and now my brother is dead." I just sit and cry. I try to unclip my seat belt I succeed, I fall and flip landing on my leg which hurt like a bitch because this how I descovered that it was broken. Sometime later, I must have decided to go to sleep because I woke up next to the wreckage. The fire had been extinguished so I’m not in danger of burning. I decided to walk I don’t know where, just somewhere; I need to think. Well, I would walk if my leg was not broken. "Fuck, this hurts." I wipe tears from my eyes, then I see a light in the tree line, "Is that a cottage?" I take a closer look and see something in the window. I start to crawl closer and closer until I reach the front door. I stand, using the door handle to hold my weight, groaning in pain. I knock on the door as I say, "Hello, sorry but there has been an accident We need medical attention!" choking back a sob. I hear a gasp and what sounds like horse steps, like clopping on wood? the door opens and what I see is something from a fever dream I fall on my ass as I look up and see a small yellow horse with pink hair looking terrified with big eyes right at me. "WHAT THE FUCK!!??" I then, thankfully, fell unconscious. End chapter one Author's Note This is my first story, so please let me know how I can improve it. I created this in my final year of middle school, at the beginning of 2023. Well, this chapter, I mean, I only posted it in "2024" because it did not meet the publish requirements at the time, but now that I am in high school, I had the opportunity to rewrite it and make it better, and though I am still not perfect, I will probably rewrite it in the future when I get better at writing in general. Question of the chapter: Whats your fav story in your favorite's in your library? Mine is the story A Demons Second Chance by Perfectly Insane Next stop Fucking pony world"SPIKE!!!! SPIKE!!!!!" "GET OUT OF BED AND GET UP HERE PLEASE!!!!" It was a pretty nice Sunday mourning all things considered well, for everybody but a particular dragon because Twilight had stayed up all night again, witch was not a surprise to the small dragon assistant, He was so used to it in fact that he pretended he couldn't hear her just so he could get five more precious seconds of sleep while he could. she had stayed up to "do some research" about a weather manipulation spell, so she stayed up looking at weather activity or reading about it all night. Spike gave a deep sigh as he crawled out of bed and yelled "coming twilight!" Spike quickly scrambled up to the balcony of the small tree house going up the stairs and there she was a half asleep Alicorn princess of friendship slumped over a desk with some ink, a quill, and a ton of books stacked everywhere. Spike cautiously stepped around piles and piles of books all from what he could see were books on weather magic that were used by unicorns, or books on unfinished spells that had something to do with weather. "Um Twilight why did you need to study weather magic anyway, why not just have Rainbow dash do whatever it is you need done?" "Because Spike, it was Rainbow who asked me if I could figure out a way for the weather to be taken care of while she was away doing a show in Cloudsdale with the Wonderbolts." "Okay and?" spike said with a raise of his eye brow. "What does that have to do with me?" Twilight gave a yawn and started again "I just need some coffee, Oh also before I forget I need you to go into town and get some lab supplies from Dr.hooves." "well there goes the idea of going back to bed." spike muttered then said "sure Twi whatever you need i'm here." "Thank you spike I promise to pay you back later." Twilight said as she levitates a list of things to spike without even looking at him. Spike sighed and walked to the kitchen to make some coffee, grabbing a gem from his hidden stash on the way. About a hour later after Spike had left to go into town, Twilight was doing an experiment with a vile of rainbow liquid. Twilight focused on it her horn lighting, The power in the spell matrix making her horn start sparking like a bunch of fire works. The vile shook then exploded in her face, Twilight´s eye twitched as magic enveloped the broken mess as it was thrown agenst the wall with a yell. Then twilight just laid her head down on the table groaning a headache taking over. After a while twilight got up and looked up at the sky in contemplation. with a sigh Twilight then said, "Maybe I do need some sleep I don´t want another want it need it situation", Twilight would shudder at the memory. As she says this she sees a bright light flash blinding her, after her vision clears she sees what looks like a giant fire ball falling from the sky heading directly towards-"FLUTTER SHY´S HOUSE!!!" Twilight would scream as she immediately fly's over to Flutters house. Flutter shy was having a pretty good day so far, well besides angel hitting her head on a table while trying to do bunny parkour again. But besides that everything was good, she fed her animals, and then made some tea and sat on the sofa with a book. But randomly out of no where a huge BOOM was heard outside, and being the quite skittish pony she was immediately fell to the ground grabbing any and all of the animal friends she could reach, and hugged them while hiding on the ground. After a while she found silence take over but she was still suspicious so she waited longer, then she said "um friends do you think its safe yet?" Body shaking. "Should I check it out? my animals friends could be in trouble!". And with a few chitters of a couple animals and finally a angry bunny named angel breaking free from her hold and pointing at the door. "Your right I really should check it out" Flutter shy said getting up. Flutter shy´s motherly side was taking over as she started walking to the door, she stopped when she heard knocking on the door, she gasped freezing in place, as she heard a male voice say,"Hello sorry but there has been an accident we need medical attention!" Flutter shy´s eyes went wide now knowing that the possibility of somepony or worse somepony´s being hurt was indeed a possibility. Flutter shy walked to the door opening it and what she saw was both scary but also not scary at the same time, her eyes went wide as she looked at the thing in front of her who she thought looked like a hairless monkey with only a mane. The thing then screamed as it looked at her saying,"WHAT THE FUCK" as it fell onto its backside and fainted. Not knowing what to do she took him inside and got him in a bed taking care of him as he slept, using this time to examine his body she felt more comfortable doing this as he looked more like an animal than pony so she got to work looking over his injury's, she thought that if it does get mad about it they would probably be happy about it later anyway. The pony´s of Ponyville looked up to see a purple streak in the sky it would have been more normal if it was blue, but non the less they moved on with there day. Twilight after seeing the fireball heading right towards flutters house immediately started flying over. "IM COMING FLUTTER SHY JUST HOLD ON!!" she yelled as loud as she could almost reaching the royal canterlot voice. But as she got close she realized the thing missed her house but did land close by. Whew Twilight wiped her forehead of sweat now looking at what looks like more wreckage now than a fireball. Curiosity quickly over took her feeling of fear as she summoned a note pad and landed next to the wreckage, as she got close she immediately smelled something awful like burning hair mixed with rotting, and wanting to know more she cast a examining spell on the area and found that the smell was coming from dark shaped blobs all over the ground that look like rocks, but on closer examination, twilight gasped at what the spell was telling her. "Its a body a DEAD BODY!" Twilight said as she took a step back and shuddered. She desided to come back to that later but not before she takes a quick sample and quickly teleports it into a storage pocket dimension. Now looking around, while covering her nose, she notices that the entire wreckage is made of metal and not the kind of metal you would find from lets say a sword or building, its steel witch at this point is only in certain machinery that can really only be found in ether the royal labs or some pony who managed to get some by mining the proper metals and making it from there witch the magic in takes to do that and make this much, it would take years. Twilight continues to take sample after sample but in the corner of her eye she sees a trail of blood lead into the forest, she goes to follow it but thats when she hears a scream from flutter shy's cottage. "WHAT THE FUCK!" At first Twilight panics but the scream sounds more male than female so she calms down but still she trots over to flutters house going over to help if she can. Fluttershy heard another knock at her door and jumped, "Fluttershy its me Twilight can I come in?" "Um yes come in i'm in my bedroom" Fluttershy said loud enough so Twi could hear. as Fluttershy heard the door open she heard her friend trot down the hall way and start to say something. "I dont know why you couldn't just open the do-WHAT IN TORTUROUS IS THAT!" Twilight screamed stopping her sentence half way. "No idea Twilight", she said. "I found it knocking on my door and when I opened it and it fainted." "Hmm" Twilight sat in thought. "Well now that I think about it it kinda looks like one of those human creatures lyra is always talking about." "Yeah, I thought that too but im not sure, couldn't it be a monkey of some sort?" 'No, I dont think so Shy look here" Twilight points at the clothing on its body. "It´s wearing some sort of clothing much like the cat people of the badlands, witch gives me the idea that this thing is intelligent and self aware, and I know monkeys are smart but not that smart." "I guess I get what your saying, I sure have not met any monkeys who really cared much for clothing anyway so your probably right." Flutter shy says. Fluttershy glances at Twilight, who was looking at the sleeping "human" she summons a clipbourd in a flash of magic, she takes note after note looking at the body. The body its self was pretty big maybe double the size of a normal pony stallion, they wore a red hoodie, black jeens, and shoes. "Also another thing the gives the idea of this thing being a human is again the clothing Lyra said they valued culture right well the clothing being these colors seem to do the opposite of camouflage witch if the clothing was for survival it would be more black or made of darker colors right, so it makes sense if the clothing was a cultural thing rather than for survival." "Yeah I guess that makes sense, if you think so..." Fluttershy said nervously after Twilight´s quick analysis. "Yeah, I cant believe there here I mean it could have something to do with that thing that fell from the sk- "KNOCK KNOCK", Twilight was cut off from the sound of knocking at the door. "I´ll get it" Fluttershy said then scrambled to the door. Twilight was left in silence for about five seconds before Fluttershy ran back into the room, "Its Lyra!!!" "WHAT SHE CANT BE HERE! you know how she gets about humans imagine if she saw one!" Twilight half screams. "I know but I cant just make her leave what do I do?" Fluttershy stammers. "lets both talk to her, and you can close the door to the room he is in when we leave." Twilight suggests hopfully. Both Twilight and Fluttershy leave the room closing the door behind them,they walk to the living room and twilight opens the door, and Lyra is there with a concerned look on her face. "Oh hey Twilight, I saw the fire ball thing falling at flutters house and i wanted to know if everything was ok?" "Yeah everything is fine i saw the thing too so i came over shes fine and I am going to look into the thing that fell after I leave Flutters." Twilight says with a everything is fine look on her face witch looks kinda wierd honestly as lyra is used to seeing twilight stressed as all hell but Lyra soon thinks nothing of it. "Well can I come in?" Lyra asks. "No!" Twilight yells as she trys to block more of the door. Lyra looks even more confused as Fluttershy comes in front of twilight and says "What Twilight is meaning to say is that I told her my house is a mess and I didint really even want her to come in sorry" "Oh, ok then, I can leave sorry bye." Lyra began. "no its fine just come back later and we can have tea." Fluttershy says. But just then as Lyra was about to leave everyone hears a voice say "WHERE THE FUCK AM I AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINGS!" Both Fluttershy and Twilight´s eyes go wide at this, but Lyra Is who reacts the most at the sight of the human she freezes. "RUN you need to run now!" Twilight says to the Liam. But he just stands there eyes wide not understanding whats happening he just says "you fucking talk too?" But now its too late Lyra´s eyes go slit much like a cat who is about to pounce witch actually is not that far off as Lyra literally does pounce, she runs and jumps into Liam while screaming "HUMAN" knocking him into the bathroom landing ontop of his stomach she kicks the door closed locking it. Liam groans from the impact, but when he opens his eyes all he sees is lyra´s face inches from his. "~Hi" Lyra says with a mix of fascination and seduction. "God help me." is all he could get out before it was too late.

Question of the chapter: what got you into writing fanfiction on here or what made you want to start reading on here: For me it was the fact that I am a writer/poet and I use fanfiction as practice for my own storys that arent fanfiction like actual books that I plan to sell eventually not that this story is not something a care about its just more of a hobby more than somthing I want to do for the future. also I want to keep my dads dream alive by making an actual super hero universe much like marvel or DC but it was my dads originally me and him brainstorm powers and heros all the time it would be nice to bring it to life sometime you know. but with all that said if there are any writers in the comments please give advice I will happily take it. Thank you sincerely your friendly neighborhood writer KILLA-WATT. 73 questions to ask a humanAuthor's Note Hey welcome, Im back and I know its been a while but school sucks so you know. but the new chapter is here so please enjoy. will edit this and make it better and at that point I might unsubmit the chapter then resubmit so sorry if I take the chapter down for a small bit. 73 questions to ask a human Ok, so first I wake up in some random house, with a bunch of fucking wild animals all looking at me from around the bed I had been sleeping on. And, well, this scares the fuck out of me. I mean, if you wake up in a random bed and you see a goddamn bear looking at you from the corner, you aren't running out of that room? But of course it wasn't that easy, as when I left the room, I saw three small, horse-looking things. One purple, one yellow, and one green—well, the yellow one could have been cream in color? Whatever, it doesn't matter; what does is that now I am locked in what seemed to be a bathroom with a green horse, who had jumped on me like a fucking cat trying to catch a mouse. "What!? Let me go, What even are you?!" I said, trying to break free from the hold of this green horse. The horse thing smiles as it puts its hoof up to my mouth and says, "I will be asking the questions here; also, for what I am, I'm an anthropologist." she said, shushing me. "What!? That answers nothing?!" But it just ignores me and continues on its tirade, its hooves digging into my chest, threatening to crush a rib. Also, something else that's concerning is the fact that I feel something invisible forcing my hands and legs to the floor. Its horn glows, and a couple of bags are sat next to it on the floor. With a swish of its horn, a notepad and a pencil are levitated out of the bag and are left floating in front of the horse's face. It smiles at me with the stare of a predator about to eat its prey. I gulp down air as I am literally at this thing's mercy. I could hear knocking and yelling on the other side of the door, but for some reason, as the door would be enveloped in a green glow, the noise from the other side would quiet down. It would look at the door as it was enveloped by this energy and yell, "Twilight, stop yelling; I am in the middle of an interview. Also, I told you I was good at magic; you always seem to forget I went to the same school you did!" It would scoff at the apparent attempts to yell back with a response, but the voices just dimmed even more as the door would be illuminated with what I could only describe as magic. Then, the thing turned its attention back towards me. It’d gasp as the weird stuff on my hands would lift them both into the air. She would look at my hands with wide eyes, as though they were the most beautiful thing she had ever seen, and she would twist and turn them uneasily, as though she had studied to be the most excruciating chiropractor in the world. I tried to tell her to stop, but the sparkly stuff always made me keep my mouth shut. For what seemed like ten minutes, I just sat there and watched her practically caress my hands while the slight vibrations coming from the bathroom door kept strong. I could hear the green horse cackle slightly as she began to speak. "So, these are hands?" She would say as her hot breath blew into my hands, making me shiver with discomfort. I could feel my mouth loosening as she either gave me a chance to speak or was distracted by my hands. "Um, yes? Listen can you please let me g-" I would be cut off as I am forced to shut up again. "Huh..." she would say as she licked her lips, which was my breaking point. I finally lost my shit and screamed as loudly as I could. I struggled to rock myself back and forth enough to get her off of me. But eventually a loud as hell bang could be heard from the door causing the mint horse to jump and slip and fall off of me. "Twilight! Are you trying to give me a heart attack!? I'm trying to conduct some serious experiments in here, like, why are you the only one allowed to experiment on ponies!?" The only response was another bang on the door, which caused the door hinge to make a whining noise as if it were in agony. This surprised the horse, and with a swish of its horn, it appears to have attempted to keep the door closed with that sparkly stuff. BANG BANG BANG In a burst of pink and purple, the door cracked and flew at her, knocking her out. The yellow and purple horses approach the mint one to see if everything is okay, or so I believe, but I didn't think about it since I just knew I needed to go, so I take the risk and ran. So, with my newfound freedom, I stand up and haul my ass out of the cottage, and as I do, I try to cope with the fact that horses can now apparently talk, as well as the fact that I'm the only survivor of a plane crash in a place I don't know, and as far as I can tell, I am fucked. So you could imagine my relief as I see a village in the distance. I run like the wind, dodging falling tree branches and other hazards, the pain from the crash fading as adrenaline takes over. I cast a quick glance behind me and immediately regret it, as I see the mint horse chasing me and gradually catching up, I quickly face forward and focus on speeding up, my eyes wide with fear. "HUMAN! COME BACK! I WILL NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!" I hear the creature yell from behind me, which scares me even more, giving me tunnel vision of the town I'm fleeing to, but as I try to speed up, I lose my balance and land on my chest. Rolling on my back, I prepare to attack as I watch the mint pony slowly walk towards me, then stop and just stand there menacingly. I quickly notice that it is quietly muttering to itself in an unintelligible sound, similar to a quiet sqeek. I just stare, hoping to stand my ground. Perhaps I should try to make myself appear bigger? That's what they say you should do with animals like this, right? But soon my prayers would be answered as a flash of purple light would appear in front of as the purple unicorn thing was now in front of me holding its hoof up blocking me from my attacker. "Lyra, you need to stop! As the Princess of Friendship, I cannot in my right mind allow you to continue acting like this!" As soon as I hear the words "princess of friendship," I become confused. But it's good to know the name of my attacker now, but if what's being said is true, am I technically being saved by royalty? Guess it's best to wait and see. "No Twilight, finally I can show that my lifelong obsession isn't pointless! I need to learn more about him" Lyra had said. Twilight would sigh and reply. "What if I helped you interview him? But you have to follow the conditions of doing it inside, allowing the human to stop the interview, and not continuing the interview as you were before, deal?" "Okay, fine" Lyra said, and then she hurried to the cottage, where I could make out the yellow pony watching us from a distance. After they had both gone inside, thanks to the yellow pony who by the looks of it stated demanding Lyra go inside, and with a stare Lyra ran inside. Then that's when the pony who I know knew was named twilight, Strange name but I decided not to question it. "You okay?" I heard Twilight say with a sigh. "Um, Yeah? Mind telling me what that was all about?" I said with clear confusion of the situation I have landed in, causing Twilight to blink then immediately bow down and apologize. "Oh my Celestia! I need to apologize for her behavior!" After she bowed she got back up and said, "I will explain everything on the way back to the cottage. "Um okay, I'm not getting trapped in a bathroom again am I?" I say, with a fake chuckle. "Oh goodness no, heh..." A moment of awkward silence would pass. "Let me just explain on our way back, yeah?" "Sure, I don't mind as long as I figure out what the fuck is happening." Twilight flinched when she heard my curse word; I would keep this in mind for the future. Twilight explained to me that the Lyra pony was obsessed with humans because our species was apparently a myth in this world. Which I found strange because unicorns were also considered myths where I came from, and I'm not sure if Lyra was even a unicorn; just because they look like something doesn't mean they're called that. I should probably ask. "Yes?" Twilight looked ahead, her thoughts seemingly elsewhere. "Lyra is a unicorn correct?" Twilight looked at me in confusion as I said this. "Yes? Wait, you came from that metal bird thing right?" Twilight spoke with a strange sense of urgency that I hadn't noticed from her before. My eyes lit up with excitement, and I responded. "Yes, how did you know that?" "It fell from the sky and exploded on impact with the ground. But that is beside the point; if you came from the metal, you know where it came from. Are there no unicorns where you're from? Twilight spoke quickly, making it difficult to understand what she was saying. "Nope, where I come from, unicorns and Pegasi and stuff like that are myths, kinda like how humans are here, like you said." As I said this Twilight used magic to summon a clip board and a quill, and with a few quick strokes of the utensil, the clip board vanished. I would just look on in amazment as I had never seen anything like it before. "What?" Twilight would ask. "What was that?" I would say in both amazement and confusion. Twilight appeared to nearly pass out when she heard what I had to say. As if what I said was the last thing she would ever think I would say. "YOU DON'T HAVE MAGIC?!?!" One hair would stand out from the rest of her well-combed hair, and she would snap, her eyes twitching. Which made me jump back in terror. This seemed to shake her out of it, and she began to take deep breaths, She would proceed now that she was much calmer. "Let's go inside shall we?" I suggest you listen to this for this part. https://youtu.be/_YMBoDcdRd4?feature=shared As we entered the cottage, I noticed the yellow mare Twilight had said was named Fluttershy looking sternly at something else; that something appeared to be Lyra, who was on the sofa practically vibrating with the power of a split atom. Lyra attempted to stand when she saw me, but Twilight stopped her and began speaking. "Remember our deal, you will interview him on his terms okay?" Twilight would say with a stern look. I just looked at them with caution, but really I just wanted to get this over with. Lyra would nod, with what looked like a non-fake agreement, and stand up with an excited smile as she began speaking. "I have waited a long time for this!" Lyra would say with a giggle. "Twilight, will you please get me a whiteboard and marker?" Twilight rolled her eyes as Lyra spoke, and with a swish, a large whiteboard appeared. Lyra would scribble on it while mumbling to herself; when she was finished, the board appeared to have a list of questions about human culture, biology, and, of course, magic; there was also a Venn diagram labeled ponies vs humans. I looked forward in shock, still attempting to mentally prepare for what was about to occur. "Okay to begin my presentation I have to acknowledge the elephant in the room and say..." she would quickly look over at twilight who was eyeing her with a stern look. "Sorry, I must say sorry, Mr. um...? What is your name, human?" "Liam" I answered. I then heard Lyra Squeak and under her breath "Oh my Celestia, a real human name!" Then continue with what she had been trying to say before. "Well, I must say sorry Mr. Liam, because of my actions I may have caused some little problems." She would say with a forced smile, and seeing as it was not helping the awkward tension, she just moved on. "But there is something you must know about me, and that is that human beings fascinate me, fingers, toes, their tiny noses, brownish hair, and tannish skin. I mean, would it be too much to ask to see the world they're living in? and even though everybody tells me that it's old and fake mythology, I refuse to not try and solve the mystery that I have studied for all my life, that being the study of anthropology! And I am born with the rights to study whatever I please, and with that, I think it's been long enough. Let's get along with the interview, shall we?" At this point I had sat down and Twilight and Fluttershy were drinking tea while listening to the ponies ramblings, though I have to give it to Lyra she knows what she wants that's for sure. I would nod at Lyra who in turn nodded at me. "okay, so first what do Humans eat? like y'all eat plants like us or...?" Lyra said starting things off. I was kinda confused why that was her first question but its whatever. "Um, humans are actually omnivores, meaning they eat meat and plants, though some humans choose to only eat veggies or non-animal products for several reasons." With that Lyra would check of her list, and write in the Venn diagram. "Next is do humans Have magic?" This time Twilight would answer with no and explain that we had talked on the way in, Lyra nodded but was clearly irritated that she could not hear my answer but she excepted it non the less. "Do humans only have one language?" To this I would answer no and explain that humans where I come from live in several different places and that different kinds of humans have lived and grown up with different languages. Lyra listened intently and wrote down what I said word for word. "Do humans communicate with animals or help them with getting ready for waking up from hibernation?" I sat there and confused and stared blankly but eventually said no. "What? Then how do the animals and stuff live, what's next the weather moves on its own where you are?" she would say with a chuckle but I just stared blankly. "Wait, where you come from, the weather does move on its own?!" Twilight stood up with wide eyes, and without saying anything, she summoned three clipboards and flipped the whiteboard over to use the other side. "Okay, sorry Lyra but I need to calculate this." And before anyone could react, the clipboards and whiteboards were already brimming with weather equations and other advanced concepts that I couldn't comprehend. "Okay, so what your saying is that where you come from the weather does its job on its own without any outside force or action?" With that, I responded yes. Twilight's eye twitched as she quickly began erasing and redoing equations on the clipboard and dry erase board while continuing speaking. "Uh huh, so where you come from, the thing I've been trying to do with magic for weeks and weeks without sleep, every painstaking hour of research, and every book from Star Swirl the Bearded's work that I studied for this very thing that I've been unable to do for little more than a month has all been for nothing! as where you come from, the weather not only works by itself, as it does in the Everfree forest, but it also works without the use of magic!?" As she finished her rambling, she slammed the marker that had been in her magic into the Whiteboard while slowly turning her head at me with a disturbed expression and her hair in all sorts of wack. "Liam, do you know how much power it would take to pull something like that off without using magic and still having the weather to do its thing, to even move a moderately sized group of altocumulus clouds?" Twilight would pick up the marker and write a small equation before continuing to speak. "It would take 10-50 megatons of TNT, which is equivalent to..." And with the marker slightly shaking as she began writing it, the marker slowly gliding across the surface as it wrote the answer, "2.092 x 10+17 joules." When Twilight looked at her conclusion and all the millions of numbers and concepts she had written down, I'm pretty sure she broke, as Fluttershy had to quickly force her to sit down and drink some water. "She will be fine, this kinda just happens sometimes stress I guess." Fluttershy would say with a shy smile. Lyra who at this point was sitting on the couch holding a pillow up while hiding behind it in fear. "Remind me never to be alone in the same room as Twilight." Lyra said, causing Twilight to start feeling bad about her behavior; still, she just sat with Fluttershy, taking deep breaths. "Okay well Im going to continue where I left off." Lyra said standing back up and using magic flipping the board back to her side. "But I am curious, if it takes so much power to move the clouds, how do they move where your from?" "Um, the wind." Immediately Twilight was up staring me down. "The WIND?!" Fluttershy quickly got Twilight again and Lyra continued with her interview. And the interview continued from there. I tried my hardest to answer each question, which led to a long night of explaining what Christmas is and the different types of wars we as humans have fought; I avoided mentioning a lot of the really bad stuff so as not to scare anyone. We discussed the differences in our various myths and legends; I even explained some of our technology, as well as our government and hierarchy, and while I tried my hardest to answer everything, everything I said was probably heavily simplified, as my simple monkey brain is too smooth to understand complex shit like every branch of government and each one's job or something. And then everything came to an end, and Twilight and Lyra left, saying something about exploring the metal crash site tomorrow. Fluttershy offered to let me stay on the couch, so I agreed and passed out, hoping to return home. END CHAPTER
The flight (prologue)A month ago, if you had told me I would be on a crashing plane headed into the ocean, I would have believed you were insane. But here I was in that very circumstance, just sitting there thinking about how I got into this, so let me explain how I got here. One month ago, I awoke to a fairly average Monday morning. I sat up groggily, my alarm clock driving holes in my skull and almost slamming it off my table, but I managed to restrain myself. I cleaned my teeth and got ready, as is my regular routine, but then I received a text from my brother Silas, who said he was heading to Disney in Florida for a vacation and wanted me to come. I was always the anti-social brother, and despite being too terrified to attend when I was younger, I accepted. However, I have teleophobia, which means I am afraid of flying, but it was my brother. How could I say no? So I agreed oh, how I should have realized this would end up being one of the worst mistakes I ever made in my life. After packing my belongings, I arrived at the airport a week later. And as a writer, I brought my phone, books, laptop, and clothing. I met with my brother, said hello, and we hugged. "You look worse for wear, Liam!" Silas smiled. We headed into the building and went into security That part was easy after all and that wasn’t the part I was scared of. We then got out of security and sat down, my brother got on his phone and played games while waiting to board the plane, I was shaking like a leaf, ready to fall any second. "I swear if I have a panic attack in here I will end myself on the spot." We got on the plane and I walked in, feeling the walls close around me, I felt sick to my stomach. My brother looked at me and said, "Bro don’t look so sad you’re going to Disneyland for Christ sake and car crashes happen way more than plane crashes." I just look at him with annoyance. I love my brother, but he can be so annoying. We both sat down, and to my horror, I got the window seat, though because of my shyness, I did not complain. The pilot started talking, but I was too scared to pay attention. Instead, I found comfort in closing my eyes reaching down putting my seat belt on so tight I could hardly breathe. The plane started moving, we are in the sky. It has been a couple of hours, even though it felt like a lifetime. I had plenty to do, like trying not to throw up on my brother or cry. The speakers in the plane buzzed to life, and the pilot spoke, “Ok folks, we’re about to have some turbulence. Please just stay calm and I will try and keep us in the air!” "What?...What does that mean...?" “it’s probably nothing calm down.” my brother said . Then it happened. At first, it was a slight shudder, like the plane itself was vibrating. I put my hand on the wall of my seat; it felt warm then hot I burned my hand. ”Ow!" I said, pulling my hurt hand away. Then we heard an explosion the left-wing engine was on fire. the pilot started again “Everyone needs to stay calm I’m going to try and land on the water God save us all!” I was scared and frozen All I could do was cry everything was quiet I was ignoring everything I was shaking and I felt sick, like I was going to die. The motion of the plane started going downward but it was not the pilot doing it, We were crashing and I knew it I hugged my brother and waited for impact but it never came and with a flash of red, hot white light, I felt numb. Channel Five news: "Hello, America I’m Jessica Mary thank you for watching channel 5 news. Well folks, we have some bad news as a plane was found crashing near the coast of Florida, Witnesses say one of the wings caught a blaze and the plane was crashing into the ocean and that the plane disappeared before it hit the ground, a video of the incident was submitted to our news station not long after, we can not disclose who it was who sent the video, but we can say that what your about to see is shocking!" The news woman points to a screen behind her while playing the video. The video shows a plane on fire falling out of the sky and right before it hits the ground, a flash of purple and white light enveloped the plane and it was gone. "This is a mystery, folks the likes we haven't seen sense the Malaysia Airlines 370 incident nine years ago, email us at channel five news for any additional info about this event that you can give on the situation." I could not see properly and I felt like my entire body was in a washing machine. I looked around for my brother and when I turned, I saw nothing . ”Well, he was gone.” The plane crashed, everything was on fire, and dead bodies were everywhere I tried to get out of the wreckage. It was hard to move I hurt so much I could not stand as I crawled out I saw that my leg was broken but I’m not dead, luckily. "First I need to find Silas" I look around." I would look around seeing the crash around, I see that I am practically up side down hanging from the seat belt, and from the hole in the side of the plane I could see deep brush of trees. "I’m in a forest; I need to calm down," I think to myself. "Fuck, first I agreed to this stupid trip and now my brother is dead." I just sit and cry. I try to unclip my seat belt I succeed, I fall and flip landing on my leg which hurt like a bitch because this how I descovered that it was broken. Sometime later, I must have decided to go to sleep because I woke up next to the wreckage. The fire had been extinguished so I’m not in danger of burning. I decided to walk I don’t know where, just somewhere; I need to think. Well, I would walk if my leg was not broken. "Fuck, this hurts." I wipe tears from my eyes, then I see a light in the tree line, "Is that a cottage?" I take a closer look and see something in the window. I start to crawl closer and closer until I reach the front door. I stand, using the door handle to hold my weight, groaning in pain. I knock on the door as I say, "Hello, sorry but there has been an accident We need medical attention!" choking back a sob. I hear a gasp and what sounds like horse steps, like clopping on wood? the door opens and what I see is something from a fever dream I fall on my ass as I look up and see a small yellow horse with pink hair looking terrified with big eyes right at me. "WHAT THE FUCK!!??" I then, thankfully, fell unconscious. End chapter one Author's Note This is my first story, so please let me know how I can improve it. I created this in my final year of middle school, at the beginning of 2023. Well, this chapter, I mean, I only posted it in "2024" because it did not meet the publish requirements at the time, but now that I am in high school, I had the opportunity to rewrite it and make it better, and though I am still not perfect, I will probably rewrite it in the future when I get better at writing in general. Question of the chapter: Whats your fav story in your favorite's in your library? Mine is the story A Demons Second Chance by Perfectly Insane
Next stop Fucking pony world"SPIKE!!!! SPIKE!!!!!" "GET OUT OF BED AND GET UP HERE PLEASE!!!!" It was a pretty nice Sunday mourning all things considered well, for everybody but a particular dragon because Twilight had stayed up all night again, witch was not a surprise to the small dragon assistant, He was so used to it in fact that he pretended he couldn't hear her just so he could get five more precious seconds of sleep while he could. she had stayed up to "do some research" about a weather manipulation spell, so she stayed up looking at weather activity or reading about it all night. Spike gave a deep sigh as he crawled out of bed and yelled "coming twilight!" Spike quickly scrambled up to the balcony of the small tree house going up the stairs and there she was a half asleep Alicorn princess of friendship slumped over a desk with some ink, a quill, and a ton of books stacked everywhere. Spike cautiously stepped around piles and piles of books all from what he could see were books on weather magic that were used by unicorns, or books on unfinished spells that had something to do with weather. "Um Twilight why did you need to study weather magic anyway, why not just have Rainbow dash do whatever it is you need done?" "Because Spike, it was Rainbow who asked me if I could figure out a way for the weather to be taken care of while she was away doing a show in Cloudsdale with the Wonderbolts." "Okay and?" spike said with a raise of his eye brow. "What does that have to do with me?" Twilight gave a yawn and started again "I just need some coffee, Oh also before I forget I need you to go into town and get some lab supplies from Dr.hooves." "well there goes the idea of going back to bed." spike muttered then said "sure Twi whatever you need i'm here." "Thank you spike I promise to pay you back later." Twilight said as she levitates a list of things to spike without even looking at him. Spike sighed and walked to the kitchen to make some coffee, grabbing a gem from his hidden stash on the way. About a hour later after Spike had left to go into town, Twilight was doing an experiment with a vile of rainbow liquid. Twilight focused on it her horn lighting, The power in the spell matrix making her horn start sparking like a bunch of fire works. The vile shook then exploded in her face, Twilight´s eye twitched as magic enveloped the broken mess as it was thrown agenst the wall with a yell. Then twilight just laid her head down on the table groaning a headache taking over. After a while twilight got up and looked up at the sky in contemplation. with a sigh Twilight then said, "Maybe I do need some sleep I don´t want another want it need it situation", Twilight would shudder at the memory. As she says this she sees a bright light flash blinding her, after her vision clears she sees what looks like a giant fire ball falling from the sky heading directly towards-"FLUTTER SHY´S HOUSE!!!" Twilight would scream as she immediately fly's over to Flutters house. Flutter shy was having a pretty good day so far, well besides angel hitting her head on a table while trying to do bunny parkour again. But besides that everything was good, she fed her animals, and then made some tea and sat on the sofa with a book. But randomly out of no where a huge BOOM was heard outside, and being the quite skittish pony she was immediately fell to the ground grabbing any and all of the animal friends she could reach, and hugged them while hiding on the ground. After a while she found silence take over but she was still suspicious so she waited longer, then she said "um friends do you think its safe yet?" Body shaking. "Should I check it out? my animals friends could be in trouble!". And with a few chitters of a couple animals and finally a angry bunny named angel breaking free from her hold and pointing at the door. "Your right I really should check it out" Flutter shy said getting up. Flutter shy´s motherly side was taking over as she started walking to the door, she stopped when she heard knocking on the door, she gasped freezing in place, as she heard a male voice say,"Hello sorry but there has been an accident we need medical attention!" Flutter shy´s eyes went wide now knowing that the possibility of somepony or worse somepony´s being hurt was indeed a possibility. Flutter shy walked to the door opening it and what she saw was both scary but also not scary at the same time, her eyes went wide as she looked at the thing in front of her who she thought looked like a hairless monkey with only a mane. The thing then screamed as it looked at her saying,"WHAT THE FUCK" as it fell onto its backside and fainted. Not knowing what to do she took him inside and got him in a bed taking care of him as he slept, using this time to examine his body she felt more comfortable doing this as he looked more like an animal than pony so she got to work looking over his injury's, she thought that if it does get mad about it they would probably be happy about it later anyway. The pony´s of Ponyville looked up to see a purple streak in the sky it would have been more normal if it was blue, but non the less they moved on with there day. Twilight after seeing the fireball heading right towards flutters house immediately started flying over. "IM COMING FLUTTER SHY JUST HOLD ON!!" she yelled as loud as she could almost reaching the royal canterlot voice. But as she got close she realized the thing missed her house but did land close by. Whew Twilight wiped her forehead of sweat now looking at what looks like more wreckage now than a fireball. Curiosity quickly over took her feeling of fear as she summoned a note pad and landed next to the wreckage, as she got close she immediately smelled something awful like burning hair mixed with rotting, and wanting to know more she cast a examining spell on the area and found that the smell was coming from dark shaped blobs all over the ground that look like rocks, but on closer examination, twilight gasped at what the spell was telling her. "Its a body a DEAD BODY!" Twilight said as she took a step back and shuddered. She desided to come back to that later but not before she takes a quick sample and quickly teleports it into a storage pocket dimension. Now looking around, while covering her nose, she notices that the entire wreckage is made of metal and not the kind of metal you would find from lets say a sword or building, its steel witch at this point is only in certain machinery that can really only be found in ether the royal labs or some pony who managed to get some by mining the proper metals and making it from there witch the magic in takes to do that and make this much, it would take years. Twilight continues to take sample after sample but in the corner of her eye she sees a trail of blood lead into the forest, she goes to follow it but thats when she hears a scream from flutter shy's cottage. "WHAT THE FUCK!" At first Twilight panics but the scream sounds more male than female so she calms down but still she trots over to flutters house going over to help if she can. Fluttershy heard another knock at her door and jumped, "Fluttershy its me Twilight can I come in?" "Um yes come in i'm in my bedroom" Fluttershy said loud enough so Twi could hear. as Fluttershy heard the door open she heard her friend trot down the hall way and start to say something. "I dont know why you couldn't just open the do-WHAT IN TORTUROUS IS THAT!" Twilight screamed stopping her sentence half way. "No idea Twilight", she said. "I found it knocking on my door and when I opened it and it fainted." "Hmm" Twilight sat in thought. "Well now that I think about it it kinda looks like one of those human creatures lyra is always talking about." "Yeah, I thought that too but im not sure, couldn't it be a monkey of some sort?" 'No, I dont think so Shy look here" Twilight points at the clothing on its body. "It´s wearing some sort of clothing much like the cat people of the badlands, witch gives me the idea that this thing is intelligent and self aware, and I know monkeys are smart but not that smart." "I guess I get what your saying, I sure have not met any monkeys who really cared much for clothing anyway so your probably right." Flutter shy says. Fluttershy glances at Twilight, who was looking at the sleeping "human" she summons a clipbourd in a flash of magic, she takes note after note looking at the body. The body its self was pretty big maybe double the size of a normal pony stallion, they wore a red hoodie, black jeens, and shoes. "Also another thing the gives the idea of this thing being a human is again the clothing Lyra said they valued culture right well the clothing being these colors seem to do the opposite of camouflage witch if the clothing was for survival it would be more black or made of darker colors right, so it makes sense if the clothing was a cultural thing rather than for survival." "Yeah I guess that makes sense, if you think so..." Fluttershy said nervously after Twilight´s quick analysis. "Yeah, I cant believe there here I mean it could have something to do with that thing that fell from the sk- "KNOCK KNOCK", Twilight was cut off from the sound of knocking at the door. "I´ll get it" Fluttershy said then scrambled to the door. Twilight was left in silence for about five seconds before Fluttershy ran back into the room, "Its Lyra!!!" "WHAT SHE CANT BE HERE! you know how she gets about humans imagine if she saw one!" Twilight half screams. "I know but I cant just make her leave what do I do?" Fluttershy stammers. "lets both talk to her, and you can close the door to the room he is in when we leave." Twilight suggests hopfully. Both Twilight and Fluttershy leave the room closing the door behind them,they walk to the living room and twilight opens the door, and Lyra is there with a concerned look on her face. "Oh hey Twilight, I saw the fire ball thing falling at flutters house and i wanted to know if everything was ok?" "Yeah everything is fine i saw the thing too so i came over shes fine and I am going to look into the thing that fell after I leave Flutters." Twilight says with a everything is fine look on her face witch looks kinda wierd honestly as lyra is used to seeing twilight stressed as all hell but Lyra soon thinks nothing of it. "Well can I come in?" Lyra asks. "No!" Twilight yells as she trys to block more of the door. Lyra looks even more confused as Fluttershy comes in front of twilight and says "What Twilight is meaning to say is that I told her my house is a mess and I didint really even want her to come in sorry" "Oh, ok then, I can leave sorry bye." Lyra began. "no its fine just come back later and we can have tea." Fluttershy says. But just then as Lyra was about to leave everyone hears a voice say "WHERE THE FUCK AM I AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINGS!" Both Fluttershy and Twilight´s eyes go wide at this, but Lyra Is who reacts the most at the sight of the human she freezes. "RUN you need to run now!" Twilight says to the Liam. But he just stands there eyes wide not understanding whats happening he just says "you fucking talk too?" But now its too late Lyra´s eyes go slit much like a cat who is about to pounce witch actually is not that far off as Lyra literally does pounce, she runs and jumps into Liam while screaming "HUMAN" knocking him into the bathroom landing ontop of his stomach she kicks the door closed locking it. Liam groans from the impact, but when he opens his eyes all he sees is lyra´s face inches from his. "~Hi" Lyra says with a mix of fascination and seduction. "God help me." is all he could get out before it was too late.

Question of the chapter: what got you into writing fanfiction on here or what made you want to start reading on here: For me it was the fact that I am a writer/poet and I use fanfiction as practice for my own storys that arent fanfiction like actual books that I plan to sell eventually not that this story is not something a care about its just more of a hobby more than somthing I want to do for the future. also I want to keep my dads dream alive by making an actual super hero universe much like marvel or DC but it was my dads originally me and him brainstorm powers and heros all the time it would be nice to bring it to life sometime you know. but with all that said if there are any writers in the comments please give advice I will happily take it. Thank you sincerely your friendly neighborhood writer KILLA-WATT.
73 questions to ask a humanAuthor's Note Hey welcome, Im back and I know its been a while but school sucks so you know. but the new chapter is here so please enjoy. will edit this and make it better and at that point I might unsubmit the chapter then resubmit so sorry if I take the chapter down for a small bit. 73 questions to ask a human Ok, so first I wake up in some random house, with a bunch of fucking wild animals all looking at me from around the bed I had been sleeping on. And, well, this scares the fuck out of me. I mean, if you wake up in a random bed and you see a goddamn bear looking at you from the corner, you aren't running out of that room? But of course it wasn't that easy, as when I left the room, I saw three small, horse-looking things. One purple, one yellow, and one green—well, the yellow one could have been cream in color? Whatever, it doesn't matter; what does is that now I am locked in what seemed to be a bathroom with a green horse, who had jumped on me like a fucking cat trying to catch a mouse. "What!? Let me go, What even are you?!" I said, trying to break free from the hold of this green horse. The horse thing smiles as it puts its hoof up to my mouth and says, "I will be asking the questions here; also, for what I am, I'm an anthropologist." she said, shushing me. "What!? That answers nothing?!" But it just ignores me and continues on its tirade, its hooves digging into my chest, threatening to crush a rib. Also, something else that's concerning is the fact that I feel something invisible forcing my hands and legs to the floor. Its horn glows, and a couple of bags are sat next to it on the floor. With a swish of its horn, a notepad and a pencil are levitated out of the bag and are left floating in front of the horse's face. It smiles at me with the stare of a predator about to eat its prey. I gulp down air as I am literally at this thing's mercy. I could hear knocking and yelling on the other side of the door, but for some reason, as the door would be enveloped in a green glow, the noise from the other side would quiet down. It would look at the door as it was enveloped by this energy and yell, "Twilight, stop yelling; I am in the middle of an interview. Also, I told you I was good at magic; you always seem to forget I went to the same school you did!" It would scoff at the apparent attempts to yell back with a response, but the voices just dimmed even more as the door would be illuminated with what I could only describe as magic. Then, the thing turned its attention back towards me. It’d gasp as the weird stuff on my hands would lift them both into the air. She would look at my hands with wide eyes, as though they were the most beautiful thing she had ever seen, and she would twist and turn them uneasily, as though she had studied to be the most excruciating chiropractor in the world. I tried to tell her to stop, but the sparkly stuff always made me keep my mouth shut. For what seemed like ten minutes, I just sat there and watched her practically caress my hands while the slight vibrations coming from the bathroom door kept strong. I could hear the green horse cackle slightly as she began to speak. "So, these are hands?" She would say as her hot breath blew into my hands, making me shiver with discomfort. I could feel my mouth loosening as she either gave me a chance to speak or was distracted by my hands. "Um, yes? Listen can you please let me g-" I would be cut off as I am forced to shut up again. "Huh..." she would say as she licked her lips, which was my breaking point. I finally lost my shit and screamed as loudly as I could. I struggled to rock myself back and forth enough to get her off of me. But eventually a loud as hell bang could be heard from the door causing the mint horse to jump and slip and fall off of me. "Twilight! Are you trying to give me a heart attack!? I'm trying to conduct some serious experiments in here, like, why are you the only one allowed to experiment on ponies!?" The only response was another bang on the door, which caused the door hinge to make a whining noise as if it were in agony. This surprised the horse, and with a swish of its horn, it appears to have attempted to keep the door closed with that sparkly stuff. BANG BANG BANG In a burst of pink and purple, the door cracked and flew at her, knocking her out. The yellow and purple horses approach the mint one to see if everything is okay, or so I believe, but I didn't think about it since I just knew I needed to go, so I take the risk and ran. So, with my newfound freedom, I stand up and haul my ass out of the cottage, and as I do, I try to cope with the fact that horses can now apparently talk, as well as the fact that I'm the only survivor of a plane crash in a place I don't know, and as far as I can tell, I am fucked. So you could imagine my relief as I see a village in the distance. I run like the wind, dodging falling tree branches and other hazards, the pain from the crash fading as adrenaline takes over. I cast a quick glance behind me and immediately regret it, as I see the mint horse chasing me and gradually catching up, I quickly face forward and focus on speeding up, my eyes wide with fear. "HUMAN! COME BACK! I WILL NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!" I hear the creature yell from behind me, which scares me even more, giving me tunnel vision of the town I'm fleeing to, but as I try to speed up, I lose my balance and land on my chest. Rolling on my back, I prepare to attack as I watch the mint pony slowly walk towards me, then stop and just stand there menacingly. I quickly notice that it is quietly muttering to itself in an unintelligible sound, similar to a quiet sqeek. I just stare, hoping to stand my ground. Perhaps I should try to make myself appear bigger? That's what they say you should do with animals like this, right? But soon my prayers would be answered as a flash of purple light would appear in front of as the purple unicorn thing was now in front of me holding its hoof up blocking me from my attacker. "Lyra, you need to stop! As the Princess of Friendship, I cannot in my right mind allow you to continue acting like this!" As soon as I hear the words "princess of friendship," I become confused. But it's good to know the name of my attacker now, but if what's being said is true, am I technically being saved by royalty? Guess it's best to wait and see. "No Twilight, finally I can show that my lifelong obsession isn't pointless! I need to learn more about him" Lyra had said. Twilight would sigh and reply. "What if I helped you interview him? But you have to follow the conditions of doing it inside, allowing the human to stop the interview, and not continuing the interview as you were before, deal?" "Okay, fine" Lyra said, and then she hurried to the cottage, where I could make out the yellow pony watching us from a distance. After they had both gone inside, thanks to the yellow pony who by the looks of it stated demanding Lyra go inside, and with a stare Lyra ran inside. Then that's when the pony who I know knew was named twilight, Strange name but I decided not to question it. "You okay?" I heard Twilight say with a sigh. "Um, Yeah? Mind telling me what that was all about?" I said with clear confusion of the situation I have landed in, causing Twilight to blink then immediately bow down and apologize. "Oh my Celestia! I need to apologize for her behavior!" After she bowed she got back up and said, "I will explain everything on the way back to the cottage. "Um okay, I'm not getting trapped in a bathroom again am I?" I say, with a fake chuckle. "Oh goodness no, heh..." A moment of awkward silence would pass. "Let me just explain on our way back, yeah?" "Sure, I don't mind as long as I figure out what the fuck is happening." Twilight flinched when she heard my curse word; I would keep this in mind for the future. Twilight explained to me that the Lyra pony was obsessed with humans because our species was apparently a myth in this world. Which I found strange because unicorns were also considered myths where I came from, and I'm not sure if Lyra was even a unicorn; just because they look like something doesn't mean they're called that. I should probably ask. "Yes?" Twilight looked ahead, her thoughts seemingly elsewhere. "Lyra is a unicorn correct?" Twilight looked at me in confusion as I said this. "Yes? Wait, you came from that metal bird thing right?" Twilight spoke with a strange sense of urgency that I hadn't noticed from her before. My eyes lit up with excitement, and I responded. "Yes, how did you know that?" "It fell from the sky and exploded on impact with the ground. But that is beside the point; if you came from the metal, you know where it came from. Are there no unicorns where you're from? Twilight spoke quickly, making it difficult to understand what she was saying. "Nope, where I come from, unicorns and Pegasi and stuff like that are myths, kinda like how humans are here, like you said." As I said this Twilight used magic to summon a clip board and a quill, and with a few quick strokes of the utensil, the clip board vanished. I would just look on in amazment as I had never seen anything like it before. "What?" Twilight would ask. "What was that?" I would say in both amazement and confusion. Twilight appeared to nearly pass out when she heard what I had to say. As if what I said was the last thing she would ever think I would say. "YOU DON'T HAVE MAGIC?!?!" One hair would stand out from the rest of her well-combed hair, and she would snap, her eyes twitching. Which made me jump back in terror. This seemed to shake her out of it, and she began to take deep breaths, She would proceed now that she was much calmer. "Let's go inside shall we?" I suggest you listen to this for this part. https://youtu.be/_YMBoDcdRd4?feature=shared As we entered the cottage, I noticed the yellow mare Twilight had said was named Fluttershy looking sternly at something else; that something appeared to be Lyra, who was on the sofa practically vibrating with the power of a split atom. Lyra attempted to stand when she saw me, but Twilight stopped her and began speaking. "Remember our deal, you will interview him on his terms okay?" Twilight would say with a stern look. I just looked at them with caution, but really I just wanted to get this over with. Lyra would nod, with what looked like a non-fake agreement, and stand up with an excited smile as she began speaking. "I have waited a long time for this!" Lyra would say with a giggle. "Twilight, will you please get me a whiteboard and marker?" Twilight rolled her eyes as Lyra spoke, and with a swish, a large whiteboard appeared. Lyra would scribble on it while mumbling to herself; when she was finished, the board appeared to have a list of questions about human culture, biology, and, of course, magic; there was also a Venn diagram labeled ponies vs humans. I looked forward in shock, still attempting to mentally prepare for what was about to occur. "Okay to begin my presentation I have to acknowledge the elephant in the room and say..." she would quickly look over at twilight who was eyeing her with a stern look. "Sorry, I must say sorry, Mr. um...? What is your name, human?" "Liam" I answered. I then heard Lyra Squeak and under her breath "Oh my Celestia, a real human name!" Then continue with what she had been trying to say before. "Well, I must say sorry Mr. Liam, because of my actions I may have caused some little problems." She would say with a forced smile, and seeing as it was not helping the awkward tension, she just moved on. "But there is something you must know about me, and that is that human beings fascinate me, fingers, toes, their tiny noses, brownish hair, and tannish skin. I mean, would it be too much to ask to see the world they're living in? and even though everybody tells me that it's old and fake mythology, I refuse to not try and solve the mystery that I have studied for all my life, that being the study of anthropology! And I am born with the rights to study whatever I please, and with that, I think it's been long enough. Let's get along with the interview, shall we?" At this point I had sat down and Twilight and Fluttershy were drinking tea while listening to the ponies ramblings, though I have to give it to Lyra she knows what she wants that's for sure. I would nod at Lyra who in turn nodded at me. "okay, so first what do Humans eat? like y'all eat plants like us or...?" Lyra said starting things off. I was kinda confused why that was her first question but its whatever. "Um, humans are actually omnivores, meaning they eat meat and plants, though some humans choose to only eat veggies or non-animal products for several reasons." With that Lyra would check of her list, and write in the Venn diagram. "Next is do humans Have magic?" This time Twilight would answer with no and explain that we had talked on the way in, Lyra nodded but was clearly irritated that she could not hear my answer but she excepted it non the less. "Do humans only have one language?" To this I would answer no and explain that humans where I come from live in several different places and that different kinds of humans have lived and grown up with different languages. Lyra listened intently and wrote down what I said word for word. "Do humans communicate with animals or help them with getting ready for waking up from hibernation?" I sat there and confused and stared blankly but eventually said no. "What? Then how do the animals and stuff live, what's next the weather moves on its own where you are?" she would say with a chuckle but I just stared blankly. "Wait, where you come from, the weather does move on its own?!" Twilight stood up with wide eyes, and without saying anything, she summoned three clipboards and flipped the whiteboard over to use the other side. "Okay, sorry Lyra but I need to calculate this." And before anyone could react, the clipboards and whiteboards were already brimming with weather equations and other advanced concepts that I couldn't comprehend. "Okay, so what your saying is that where you come from the weather does its job on its own without any outside force or action?" With that, I responded yes. Twilight's eye twitched as she quickly began erasing and redoing equations on the clipboard and dry erase board while continuing speaking. "Uh huh, so where you come from, the thing I've been trying to do with magic for weeks and weeks without sleep, every painstaking hour of research, and every book from Star Swirl the Bearded's work that I studied for this very thing that I've been unable to do for little more than a month has all been for nothing! as where you come from, the weather not only works by itself, as it does in the Everfree forest, but it also works without the use of magic!?" As she finished her rambling, she slammed the marker that had been in her magic into the Whiteboard while slowly turning her head at me with a disturbed expression and her hair in all sorts of wack. "Liam, do you know how much power it would take to pull something like that off without using magic and still having the weather to do its thing, to even move a moderately sized group of altocumulus clouds?" Twilight would pick up the marker and write a small equation before continuing to speak. "It would take 10-50 megatons of TNT, which is equivalent to..." And with the marker slightly shaking as she began writing it, the marker slowly gliding across the surface as it wrote the answer, "2.092 x 10+17 joules." When Twilight looked at her conclusion and all the millions of numbers and concepts she had written down, I'm pretty sure she broke, as Fluttershy had to quickly force her to sit down and drink some water. "She will be fine, this kinda just happens sometimes stress I guess." Fluttershy would say with a shy smile. Lyra who at this point was sitting on the couch holding a pillow up while hiding behind it in fear. "Remind me never to be alone in the same room as Twilight." Lyra said, causing Twilight to start feeling bad about her behavior; still, she just sat with Fluttershy, taking deep breaths. "Okay well Im going to continue where I left off." Lyra said standing back up and using magic flipping the board back to her side. "But I am curious, if it takes so much power to move the clouds, how do they move where your from?" "Um, the wind." Immediately Twilight was up staring me down. "The WIND?!" Fluttershy quickly got Twilight again and Lyra continued with her interview. And the interview continued from there. I tried my hardest to answer each question, which led to a long night of explaining what Christmas is and the different types of wars we as humans have fought; I avoided mentioning a lot of the really bad stuff so as not to scare anyone. We discussed the differences in our various myths and legends; I even explained some of our technology, as well as our government and hierarchy, and while I tried my hardest to answer everything, everything I said was probably heavily simplified, as my simple monkey brain is too smooth to understand complex shit like every branch of government and each one's job or something. And then everything came to an end, and Twilight and Lyra left, saying something about exploring the metal crash site tomorrow. Fluttershy offered to let me stay on the couch, so I agreed and passed out, hoping to return home. END CHAPTER
