Mirror Mirror on the wall....RGRE.
Prologue
Load Full StoryNext ChapterI stared at the mirror with a look of contemplation on my face. I owned a small library in a small corner of the DC area. It was fairly successful and many from the area came to get books, I got employees working there, and I would help them myself occasionally when my job was slow.
"Uh, boss?" an employee in charge of putting the books in their slot asked. Her name was Sarah...she had dark skin onyx eyes woo-like hair tied into a ponytail, she was looking at me slightly amused at the way I was Caressing it. I liked mirrors, what can I say?
"Sorry, Sarah," I said sheepishly as I slowly stood up...I pressed a...wait a minute; there was no button....did the button break off or something.
Suddenly the edges of the mirror began to glow a bright white. A stark contrast from the bronze it used to be. Both Sarah and I took a step back; very confused at the turn of events.
"When the glow dimmed, something stepped out of the portal. A person dressed like Indiana Jones from its looks, if only he were a she. and that she was golden with wings and a tail, very tall.
Sarah was petrified, I was frozen in disbelief..."Sarah...is...that an alien?" I asked, whispered. My eyes never left the strange creature.
Not a word was spoken by Sarah, and her mind paused. It normally does not pause. It's not supposed to pause. However, her mind undoubtedly refused to function when the strange creature came through the wormhole.
"Sarah..." My voice brought her out of her funk, causing her to blink as she rubbed her eyes.
"Uh boss, is that an-"
"Alien?" I asked, my eyes never leaving the strange humanoid creature, "Yes, I was just going to ask you the same question."
"Technically, you are the aliens," the creature speaks, her eyes narrowed, "Who are you...and how did this house get in Canterlot."
"Canterlot?" I asked, confused; I would have laughed if not for the situation at hand, "Is that supposed to be a joke?" I also noticed her question was not aimed at me but at Sarah..like I was like I was...an employee.
She was getting slightly nervous, her eyes glancing between the alien and me repeatedly.
"Excuse me...but I am the boss around here..." I said sternly, "If you wish to speak, you must speak to me."
She finally turned to face me, looking me up and down with a...wait a minute, was she checking me out?
"Stallions don't own anything around these parts." the creature said firmly her lips quirked upwards, "even if you look strange, yet uniquely....different in your own right."
I flinched.
Did she....did she?
My employee's eyes actually hardened at that, "Listen here, alien." Sarah spoke, her eyes slightly angry, "My boss, despite him being skinny."
"Hey!"
"Lives with his mother!"
"I am working on it!" I said indignant.
"Short as a motherfucker!"
"I am 5'8, which is average and high for males."
"He is my boss and has a good heart too, he deserves respect just like everyone else, " Sarah finished standing up for me.
I grumbled slightly but couldn't help but have a flicker of admiration for my employee standing up for me. The alien creature looked at her, stunned for a slight moment.
"I..see.." the creature said after a moment, "Well, I think we got ourselves off the wrong hoof.."
Hoof?
"What..."
"Names Daring." Daring raised a hand for hers to shake, "Daring Do."
"What kind of name is daring to do?" I asked bluntly, causing Sarah to elbow me harshly, electing a cough from me. "James." I managed as I shook hands with hers, she got on her knee raising my hand and planted gentle kiss to it sending a small shiver down my spine.
"A fine name to one Tarturus of a stallion."
Tarturus?
"What?"
She smirked and looked into my eyes. After a minute, she slowly looked at Sarah.
"Sarah." She responded, "Welcome to Earth."
"Earth?" Daring asked, tilting her head confused. "That is the name of this building?"
"Planet." I corrected, causing her eyes to widen as her neck snapped towards me.
"What?"
"Planet." I repeated, now slightly amused, "Does any of this look different to you?"
Her eyes hardened as she analyzed me up and down once again, then at Sarah. Daring then turned slightly, gazing in at the library. Since we were in my office, barely anyone was watching, she slowly turned back towards me, "What the buck is this place!" She screamed, but before she could do anything, my hand was on her lips...
"Not so loud..." I whispered into her ear, "Our world does not take kindly to strangers."
She licked my hand, causing me to retract it, my face a look of disgust.
She turned to Sarah..."You believe that I am an alien, do you..."
"I had never seen a creature like you before." Sarah admitted, "I think you might be an alien."
Daring took a step back, "Then that means..." she glanced at the mirror, which was glowing..."Hold on for one moment; this doesn't make any sense...how can a mirror placed in my bathroom be a portal to another world..."
"Wait, what?" I asked hesitantly, "Your bathroom?"
She looked at me flatly, "Yes bathroom, ever noticed the dripping wet hair?"
"Well....no..I thought your hair was supposed to be like that," I admitted sheepishly,
"From you, I'd take that as a compliment." She flirted, "Thanks, beautiful."
"Handsome." I corrected, blushing slightly at the compliment, not used to receiving praise from females, "I am handsome, not beautiful."
"You ain't a mare."
"No...no, I am not."
I tilted my head confused now, Sarah was glancing between us as Daring got out her notebook and jot stuff down,
"I...got to head back.." She slowly tilted her head back to the mirror. She placed her hand on the mirror's edge, only to trip and fall right through. It startled Sarah and me as we rushed to the mirror. I touched it, but Sarah grabbed it and pulled it back.
"Are you insane!" she screeched...but I shook my head.
"Maybe..but look, it's solid," I said as I continued to feel it with my other hand.
She looked at me, confused, then at the mirror, and hesitantly began to feel it.
"You're right; it does feel solid," Sarah muttered. Her eyes were on the mirror as she tried to push through, but nothing worked."What the fuck?"
