We made our way to the bakery, we walked in silence till we reached our destination. When we did, Sunset said one word.

“Explain.”

“Like you, I am from another world. However, I am not from Equestria,” I said.

“Really? Then where are you from?” she asked, I could tell by her tone she didn’t believe me.

“I’m actually from an alternate Earth. Like, another, nother human world. Except there, things are, let’s say, a lot less bright and colorful. And there, there exists one specific TV show. Wanna guess what it’s about?” I said.

“What does that have to do with anything?” she asked.

“It has to do with everything!” I said with a delighted tone and wide smile, “It is a cartoon about Equestria, after all. And your ex teacher’s new student is the main character!”

“Huh….well you definitely don’t act like somepony from Equestria. You’re clearly used to having a human body, and you know what a TV show is. But what other proof do you have?" Sunset asked.

“You caused 5 friends to split apart. Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Rainbow. I just arrived so I shouldn’t know that, but I do.” I responded.

“Ok. I’m more inclined to believe you now, but I still have questions,” Sunset said.

“Ask away, Miss Shimmer,” I said.

“What portal did you go through?” she asked.

“None. I was struck by lightning and wound up here, that’s why I looked a little messed up. Must’ve been magic lightning or something, I don’t really know. Magic only existed in fiction, you’d know more than me,” I said.

“I’ve never heard of any form of teleportation like that,” Sunset said.

“Me neither. Like I said, magic only existed in fiction. Unless it was really, really, rare, or purposely hidden from everyone,” I said.

“Ok….well, if you’ve seen the show, what will happen in the future?” Sunset asked.

“Twilight eventually becomes an alicorn princess, then you 2 meet. While I don’t remember the details, she wins, you lose. But with my help, we can change that. So what do you say? Shall we work together?” I asked while holding out my hand.

“If you know my plans, why are you helping me? Aren’t I technically the villain?” Sunset asked, guess she was still suspicious of me.

“Because I like you, you're a villain I that I could say, 'I would like to see her win'. That, and also because this is a situation where siding with the villain would be the much more fun outcome. So I ask again, do you accept? Shall we team up?” I answered then asked.

Sunset pondered my offer for a moment, then looked at me with a sinister smile.

“Let’s do this,” she said, holding out her hand.

We shook on it, and I began laughing.

“Hahaha. Hahaha! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!”

Sunset gave me a deadpanned look.

“Really? Did you have to do that?”

“Trust me. When the time comes, you’ll do the exact same thing. At least I think so, like I said I don’t 100% remember everything. We should probably focus on that.”

Author's Note

if any of you were in this situation, how long before you decide to go to the hospital to see if the magic lightning did anything serious?
