Why did I touch a random sword

Rex stood alone in his room. He was exhausted. He had justed finished his shift at the crappy restaurant he worked for. His clothes reaked of cheap tomato sauce. He had a sour expression on his face. His stubbled chin still had pieces of oregano stuck to it. His black hair once tied up now hung loosely around his shoulders.
Rex sat down on his bed enjoying the comfy mattress. But his expression soon returned to a grimace. He remembered how earlier in the day a rude jackass had throw his plate of spaghetti at him. To make it worst apparently it was because the entitled man didn't get served faster. Even though rex was the only waiter on shift as his coworkers called in sick. A nasty case of the flu.
He could only take in a breath as he laid his hands as found their way to his apron. He quickly threw it to the ground before grabing his normal clothes. A pair a jeans and a black t-shirt. He took a quick glace to himself using his phone as a mirrior. "Not my nicest outfit but sure beats pasta stains."
He sighed. Rex debated on what to do next. Sure he could go back out and hit up a local bar but his funds were tight. He could try hitting up Tinder. Perhaps he would get lucky. But that thought was quickly pushed aside. Rex was many things, lucky was not one of them.
Rex poundered away letting his mind race away untill. 'Ding dong' The sound of his door bell brought him back to reality. He started making his way to his front door grabbing his yellow hoodie on the way. When he opened the door he saw nothing. Only the snow covered ground.
Rex felt uneasy. The dead quiet of night the quiet falling snow. There weren't even any cars passing by. He quickly stepped away from the door slaming it shut. He scoffed. "Probably just some kids playing a stupid prank." He turned walking back to his room.
But when he returned to his room something felt off. He blinked several times rubbing his eyes. But when he looked back it was still there. A sword perfectly balancing on its tip stood in the middle of his room. He was obviously confused by the object. His windows were closed and locked. There shouldn't be any way for it to have entered.
But here it was defying the laws of gravity. He was about to run out as fast as possible. He had seen enough movies to not touch strange an probably cursed swords. But as he turned to leave something drew him back. A feeling washed over him like a stream of water. No it was stronger it was a pull like the sword was some sort of magnet pulling him in. He reached forward as he moved closer. His finger reached out wrapping around the hilt of the blade.
The blade finally moved in his grip. As he held up the blade he felt something. Like electricity in his hand. It wasn't painfull at first . In fact it felt quite nice, powerfull even. But then he looked into the blade. He saw his reflection. His eyes once a hazel brown were a vibrant yellow. A golden hue that shocked him.
He was shocked an unsure of what was happening. He tryed to drop the sword but it didn't move. His grip around the blade only tightens as he yells out. Pain filled his arm as lighting swirled around the sword. He frantically waved the blade around cutting several pieces of furniture. He then slashes the wooden floor beneath him. Instead of normal gash in the wooden ground a tear in reality started to form. The tear in reality turned into a swirling rainbow vertex. By the time rex saw it was to late.
He screamed attempting to grab whatever he could but it wasnt enough. " Fuck! Fuck! Why did i have to touch a stupid random sword!" He then found himself falling light fadeing from his veiw was he started to pass out.
meanwhile in ponyville
Twilight sparkle quick ran around her library. A purple glow swirled around her horn as she levitated several scrolls into her bag. Her freinds stood around her the firmilar main 6 an her baby dragon companion spike.
They watched her frenzy with concern unsure of why they were called. Applejack step forward blocking the purple alicorn for a momment. "Calm down suger cube! Can ya tell us why you called? "
Twilight stood still for a second before taking a quick breath. "Im sorry girls just give me a sec- oh here!" The alicorn then brought a scroll setting it down on the table for everyone to see. "Ok so I got a message from the princesses. They said they were summoning a hero of some sorts to help defend equestria....I'm not really sure from what but this map should tell us where he appears."
As she grabbed a few more scrolls the ponies looked amoung themselves. Fluttershy looked panicked along with rairty. What possible thret could require summon a hero other then themselves. Rainbow dash looked excited as well as pinkie. Rainbow was excited for a new adventure while pinkie was excited to meet a new freind. Spike looking at the map.
Spike's eyes opened wide."uh twilight?" The young dragon asked. His voice filled with a sense of worry. " yes spike what is it?." Spike gulped as he asked. "Uh how far away is he post to summon from?"
Twilight raised her eyebrow. " Uh I assume not to far away. The letter said that the relic she sent was supposed to bring him to us. A mark on the map will appear in the shape of a blade were he appears."
Spike nervously pointed at the map. "Uh twi hes not near us hes.....in the dragons lands." True to his word a mark in the shape of a small sword appeared over the map in a rocky an volcanic area. Twi eyes widen. While dragons were allies with ponies there no telling what type of species was summoned. If the hero was a changling or a even griffin there could be an incident.
The ponies around her were all silent. No one dare said a word. Not untill twilight spoke herself. "Oh shit!"
