Chapter Two: Strangeness with Happiness

Chapter Two - Strangeness with Happiness

I felt awake. I could feel myself looking around. But there was nothing, just blackness all around me. A strange feeling was inside of me. Is this a dream?, I thought. I suddenly heard a voice somewhere. It sounded as a whisper, but I knew it sounded at least a few meters away from me. It gradually grew louder, loud enough so I could hear the voice more properly. The voice sounded feminine. It didn’t sound as if someone was talking to me directly. I noticed I actually wasn’t hearing the voice with my ears. I sensed it in my mind. The voice was talking to me in my mind. This is a really weird dream, I thought again. The voice started talking again, but more clearly.

“Hello there,” The feminine voice said, “You have a lot of hope in what you believe in so much don’t you?”

“What, what do you mean?” I stammered, I was confused. This felt so real, but it felt fake at the same time due to the darkness.

“I think you do know what I mean. Somewhere deep inside of you, you have a hope of something. You believe in it so much that your mind even thinks it’s real, as if you could just go, or meet what you believe in. Your hope is so strong, that you can imagine it so realistically.” The voice boomed in my mind. It sounded as if it echoed through the darkness.

When the voice had finished talking, I knew what it had meant. It probably was talking about Equestria. The way that I imagine myself living in that world, as if I could grasp it, be in it as in it being so real that I could actually be standing in Equestria. I had always hoped that if I died I would live in Equestria. I believed in it as if it were a religion maybe.

“I can read your mind. I see that you seem to understand what I am talking about. If you could live any dream that you have. Live in a world that you hope and believe in so much, a world that you put so much faith into. Would you leave your own life, on Earth, give up everything you ever lived for. For a new world that nobody could ever live in? This is your only one chance.” The voice whispered into my mind.

“You mean, that I could actually go live in Equestria? I would be leaving my family, my friends, and my small music career forever? In exchange for a world so much better? This is a huge choice. I would be sacrificing many things for something so wonderful.” I answered back painfully with sorrow. The thought of living in Equestria is wonderful, but leaving everything behind? I need time to think of my answer.

“As I said before, I can read your mind. I know that this is a very hard decision. But this is a one chance only. I can only transport children between worlds. So that they can still have a long life ahead of them as they enter their dream world. So that they can have enough time to start over and make a living. I can only give you ten minutes before I have to move on to another child.” The feminine voice said everything as if she didn’t even care if children had to leave their whole life behind them to enter their dream world.

I thought about it. Nothing is better than Equestria. This is what I’ve imagined for three years. I’ve always lived in Equestria in my own thoughts. But now it could come true in a single answer. I would be leaving everything behind in my old world. But I would be young enough to start over in Equestria. I knew what my answer would be. I had only about four more minutes before the strange voice would leave me and never ask me this again.

“Yes, yes I’d rather live in my dream world. Even if my family finds me dead on my bed. If they think I died in my sleep of a sudden death for no reason. I would live in Equestria. Although I would miss my old life. I would have enough time to become comfortable in my new life, because I am still young. Yes, I am ready.” I answered strongly.

I awoke to the sounds of high pitched squawks and low growls. The sounds of winds rushing through rough leaves. I slowly opened my eyes to see tangled branches and leaves above me. Through tiny holes in the trees I saw the sun’s rays trying to break through. I stood up and looked around me. This isn’t my bedroom, I thought. But then I remembered that strange dream. I wondered if it had really come true, but this isn’t Equestria. Something popped into my head, this must be the Everfree Forest. It didn’t seem much scary to me, except for the constant noises of annoying birds and growling animals in the thick undergrowth. If this was the Everfree Forest then I’m going to have to find my way out in order to get my new life started. I sniffled a little bit, I had to try to remember all the faces of my family and friends. They’re probably already planning a funeral for me. All of my Brony friends on the Mlpforums.com site are probably blaming the bullies at school. My fans on Youtube are crying, knowing that I’ll never upload any mixes from now on. I held back my tears though. I had to be strong, I’m in Equestria now. I’m thirteen and I still have a long life ahead of me. I’m starting over in a new and better world. A world filled with peace and happiness. A world of ponies and everlasting friendship.

I wandered through the Everfree Forest as if I already knew this place. I actually did, sort of, in a way. I wasn’t really scared of the place, except the fact that I was alert for cockatrices, and also swamps where a hydra could be living in it. I also avoided caves where dragons and ursa’s could live. I kept marching forward through the deep undergrowth. It was quite chilly in the Everfree Forest, without the sun it was shadowed and cold. I’m glad I wore my hoodie and jeans and shoes to bed.

As I wandered endlessly through the Everfree Forest I was gradually going to give up until I had found a small dirt path. I decided to follow it, it either had to lead out of this place, or at least lead towards Zecora’s house. I wonder what would happen then. I suddenly felt nervous and scared at what would happen. Maybe they would think I’m some kind of deformed ape. What happens if my worst fear comes, they don’t understand what I say?

I followed the small dirt path until the trees started to clear up. The shadows were fading into sunlight as the world started to brighten up. I started into jog, but then it turned into a run as I quickly moved towards the edge of the forest. The fresh air hit me as I burst into the field in front of me. I had to blink in order to get used to the bright sunlight. The sun’s rays warmed my skin as I looked around. It’s as I imagined it. The equestrian breeze flowed and whirled around me. The field had a rich green color to it and the sweet aroma of flowers entered my nose. Butterflies and bees were flying around peacefully in the lush field.

I looked beyond into the distance and noticed a bundle of cottages with pink rooftops not far away. It all seemed so real. But this is actually real. It was Ponyville. In my dreams I had never thought I would actually see it with my own eyes. But here it was, off in the distance a few miles away. I watched as to what I think I saw were ponies. Ponies with many varieties of colors. I couldn’t see them properly, but I knew they were ponies. I slowly started to walk towards Ponyville, as I planned what I would do when I had actually gotten there.

Would I say hello? Would I try to speak to them in my language and see if they could understand me? What if they were afraid of me because nopony ever has ever seen my species before in this land? Maybe I could just make some peace with the ponies if they didn’t understand what I say. It was gradually getting darker in the sky as night became to be. The sun started to set and rays of pink, blue, and purple glowed around it. Hopefully maybe one of the ponies would be nice enough to let me in for the night at least, I thought hopefully.

Chapter Three: The Meet and Guide

Chapter Three - The Meet and Guide

By the time I had reached the edge of Ponyville it was night. The moon was full and the stars seemed more beautiful in Equestria. It was chilly out in the cold. I wondered how long I was in the Everfree Forest to arrive in Ponyville so late. I was probably transported to Equestria in the afternoon. I decided to suck it up and take my chances. I walked into the shadowy village and looked around to see if I could be able to see anypony anywhere.

“Psst!,” I heard a whisper to my left, I turned to see who it was. My heart thudded, it could be a pony.

“Hey, get over here!” The whisper said sharply, and loud enough so only I could hear it. The voice was coming from behind a set of barrels.

I slowly walked over to the set of barrels between two cottages. Maybe it’s not a pony, surely if I can understand the language, I thought. I slowly moved around the barrels to look behind them. My eyes widened in shock as I raised my hands over my mouth. It was a boy, just like me, he looked to be about around my age. He had tanned skin, as if he had been playing in the sun a lot.

“Hey, who are you? I’ve never seen you around before, let alone a human.” The boy said as he stood up. He reached out his hand towards me. I knew it was a handshake. I reached out my hand and shaked his nervously. I was still stunned to find another human in this world. Could there be more?

“It’s dark, you should follow me. Afterwards we can talk.” The boy said leading the way between the two cottages and into the main road through Ponyville.

I followed obediently, confused and stunned by the sudden surprise. It was dark out, but I think we passed the sugarcube corner, given that I knew what it would look like. We turned to a right as I asked him a question.

“Hey, how did you get here? In Equestria, I mean?” I asked, hopefully waiting to get an answer.

“Same as you. I’ve been living here for about a year. Never knew that strange voice would send someone else here. We’re almost there to my house. I need to explain some things before I can let you out in Ponyville tomorrow,” The boy answered, “ The name’s Alexander, call me Alex if you’d like. I’m thirteen”

I noticed a house up ahead, it seemed like we were heading for it. I guessed it might be Alex’s house. It must be cool to be thirteen and live by yourself. It’s also nice to know someone who’s the same age in a new world. “I’m Justin by the way.” I responded.

Alex only nodded back as we reached his house. It looked almost identical to all the other cottages, except that each one looked slightly different. Alex took a key out of this pocket and slid it into the keyhole, turning it and pushing open the door. I walked in after him and took off my shoes, I always do that. He sat into a nearby chair and motioned me to sit on the couch.

I took the time to look around very quick before I sat down on the couch. I noticed that the front door was in with the living room. A hallway led to a few other doors in it’s corridor. I sat down on the couch, which was gray. He said he wanted to talk to me on the way here. I wondered what it was.

“You must have been recently transported to Equestria, right?,” He smiled and continued, “I’m going to have to tell you some things though. Things here are slightly different than the way they are in the TV show. I had to learn it the hard way,”

He paused for a second and I nodded, I didn’t really have anything to say. “I have to teach you some stuff before you go out and start hugging some ponies and such things like that. First off, they don’t consider themselves animals here, remember that. Some other things are about your size. It’s kind of embarrassing when you’re looming over everybody. The best way to talk to anypony here is to politely kneel down, it makes them feel more comfortable when you’re the same height as them.” Alex paused again, he must be thinking on what to say next, I wondered why he was teaching me all of this. It seems reasonable, and since he’s been here a year like he said, this stuff must be true.

“The ponies here in Equestria, they don’t like to have you act as if they were handled as pets. You know, the way humans usually act around cats or dogs. Petting them and talking to them weird. You gotta act like the ponies are humans, like us, or you’ll just be thought of weirdly.” Alex looked at me like he was waiting for a response from me.

“Look, I think I get it now, they don’t act like animals, I got that. I have to act like they’re humans, not some kind of pet where I pet them and talk to them sweetly all the time, I think I already know that. Can I just get some sleep and start a living here?” I responded quickly, I'm pretty tired.

Alex looked at the floor. “Man, it’s harder than you think here. I know more than you. I was transported to Equestria with a group of guys. There were four of us. Three of them were sent to the jails of canterlot. You don’t understand that they think of us differently than the way that we think of them.” Alex sighed.

I was shocked. My thoughts were true. “Do the ponies understand our language?” I asked.

“If you wear this medallion you do,” Alex pulled an amulet out from under his t-shirt and showed it to me. It was laced with gold chain links and a crystal that shined with the color pink. “I’ve got another, three more in fact, that were owned by the other guys.” Alex took another amulet that was exactly the same and handed it to me. I took it carefully and put it over my head and onto my neck.

“I think I should explain some more, and why the other guys were put in jail. At first, I hope you’re like, not in like, attracted to another pony are you? It’s a pretty bad problem here if you do. Just to tell you ninety nine percent of the ponies here in Equestria are attracted to their own kind, as we are with our own kind. So you’ve got no chance if you were like the other guys. Even if you did say you loved another pony here, it’s going to end up tragically, so don’t even try. You could try to get a pony to love you I guess, it’s going to take a lot of patience though.” Alex looked and nodded at me to see if I understood.

I nodded back in response. Well, I hope those guys weren’t really THAT crazy with the ponies here. It’d be a little horrifying to see a guy run up to a favored pony and start hugging them randomly. It might be a little cute though. Alex continued on with his speech. I looked at the wooden clock he had on this wall and it was a little past midnight. I hoped we finish this soon.

“You actually have to work for a living here. You earn cash, or bits as it’s called here. I’m going to have to explain this to you, even if it seems crazy. You still need cash for the food and such still. Every world has their own currency I guess. From what I know, the technology here isn’t great. Mostly everything is either controlled by an infused metal box that contains magic that lasts basically forever, like my clock over there on the wall,” Alex pointed out. I had already seen it, I usually do wonder how ponies got their lamps and ovens to work.

“Now here’s the most important part of my speech before we get to bed. It’s the food, Justin. We humans do need meat to survive, but here, killing an animal and cooking it is horrifying. You may get jailed for murder, this happened to one of the guys with me. Apparently he killed a doe, I knew he was stupid from the start. You have to get used to being a vegetarian here. Although we do use eggs in some recipes. The only protein you’ll find is the same way vegetarians in our old world found theirs. Eatings nuts and such. Another subject is that if you ever get sick from a sickness that humans have, but ponies don’t have, don’t worry about it. The professional unicorns up in Canterlot can heal anything with their magic,” Alex rubbed his eyes and stood up and stretched, “Well, I guess I’ll set up a bed on the couch for you. Remember all of these things I told you, it’ll help you a lot. Tomorrow morning I’ve got to get to Applejack’s farm to pick some apples. It’s my job. I’ll help you get accustomed to a pony first. They’re pretty used to having me around, so they’ll trust you too hopefully.”

I watched as Alex covered the couch with some sheets. He gave me one of his extra pillows and a blanket for me to wrap myself in. He told me to wait for him in the morning, due to because he didn’t want me to wreck havoc on my first day in Ponyville. I laid down on my supposedly bed, the couch. I closed my eyes and went over all the things Alexander had told me recently. I’ll have to remember them in order to get around here.

Chapter Four: First REAL Day in Ponyville

Chapter Four - First REAL Day In Ponyville

I woke up and found myself in an unfamiliar room, but then I remembered that I was now in Alexander’s house in Ponyville. I pushed my blankets to the side and stretched. I looked at the clock on the wall and noticed it was eight thirty seven in the morning. Alex wasn’t currently awake yet. The house was also lit up by the sunshine shining through the windows. I didn’t know what to do. I wondered if I should wait for Alex to wake up, or either go and wake him up myself. I decided that I wanted to have a longer day to become acquainted with the ponies here. It’d be a little strange at first, being human and all, but I should be able to get along just fine. If Alex could do it, I could too. Hopefully.

I walked into the hallway and wondered which door was Alex’s room. I slowly moved around, not making too much noise. I opened a door and found a room. It wasn’t exactly Alex’s room, but it was pretty messy. There were bookshelves lining the wall, books were scattered all over, and a desk with papers. This must be his study room or whatever, I thought. I walked into the study room. I wasn’t curious about the books, or the papers on the desk. I was curious about the window in the room. I had actually never seen a pony yet in Equestria. I walked towards the window and looked outside. The sun was bright, the rays were even warming my skin through the window’s glass. It was bright, but I eventually got used to the light. My eyes widened. It really was real.

I saw ponies with many different kind of styles of manes, colors, and some were even wearing clothes. They all greeted each other whenever they noticed somepony they knew. When I looked up I could see a few pegasus’s flying, they were moving fast, as if they were late for something. Some unicorns would be sitting on a bench, or at an outdoor table reading their studies. It was an amazing sight, ponies with high intelligence that could think like humans.

“Hey, Justin, you ready? You can’t stay inside and watch ponies from my window all day. I have to introduce you to a friend I got in town before I go to Applejack’s.” Alex said urgently.

I moved away from the window and followed Alex out of the study room. “Alex, since we live here in Equestria, where do we get our clothes? I mean, where do we even get new clothes? I’ve only got one pair of clothes. The ones I’m wearing.” I asked.

“Oh, um, the way I did it was that I asked Rarity to size me. So she did. At first she was kind of confused on how to make clothes that fit our kind of bodies. But she learned how to do it quickly. Now I get all of my clothes from Rarity, not for free of course.” Alex answered as he opened the front door.

I followed him out into the sunlight. I sniffed my clothes and I stunk a little, I guessed it’s probably because of my venture in the Everfree Forest.

I followed Alex as he planned to take me to see one of his friends here in Ponyville. I felt as if I was being spied or watched. Everywhere I looked somepony was watching me as I passed by. Alex had told me it’s because they never expected to see another Human in Equestria, but I think I agree with the ponies, they probably never did expect to see me. Alex started to walk towards a bench that was shaded by a tree it was under. There was a stallion that was laying on it, reading a book. The stallion was a unicorn with a red mane, his fur color was white. I noticed his cutiemark also, it was a cutiemark of a blue hoof with wind whirling around it. I didn’t really know what it was meant for, probably running or something.

“Hey, Silver Sprint! I want you to meet this new guy in town!” Alex called to Silver Sprint waving his hands and pointing at me.

When we were close to Silver Sprint I didn’t really know what to stay. I was wearing my speaking amulet but I just couldn’t think of anything. So I said the most simplest thing I could think of.

“Hi.” I greeted.

“Alex, is this another human? I’m kind of busy for meeting anyone new. But I’ll talk for awhile. So, I’m Silver Sprint. Nice to meet you, welcome to Equestria I guess?” Silver Sprint said glancing at me from his book. He must be studying for something.

Remembering what Alex said, I crouched down a little so Silver Sprint didn’t have to look up as much. “Alex said that I could hangout with you for the rest of the day. You know, introduce me to some of your friends, go do some stuff? I could read with you if you’d like.” I regretted saying that last part.

After Alex left Silver Sprint had told me that he was studying on lands that were across the seas of Equestria. I never knew that there more places in the world of Equestria. In fact, I had always thought of Equestria as one huge stretch of land.

“Okay, you should read this book about The Lost World.” Silver Sprint levitated me a book. It looked pretty old. The gold letterings on the cover were worn out and the title was pretty faded.

I opened it to the first page and it was a map. Above it read “The Lost World”. I read it and actually found some cool information. There’s a place called Zevera where zebra’s live, and another landmark called Concordia. There was a mythical myth about Concordia. There was once a stallion who ventured into the temples of Concordia. He was never heard and seen from again until ten years later he had come back. Apparently, he was supposed to be old. But he looked the same age as he did when he left. It was as if he had time traveled through time so fast that it felt like forever, but to him it felt like only five hours. I was confused. Ten years?, five hours?, time travel?, what?, I told Silver Sprint about the book but he didn’t really have anything to say. He was to cooped up in another book about an island called Ib’xian.

After a long time of studying with Silver Sprint, I had wondered why I had never seen anypony of the mane six walk by. Surely I would have seen Rainbowdash in the sky, or Pinkiepie doing something crazy and funny. But I didn’t. Maybe I’m just in the wrong part of town. Suddenly, I saw Rarity not too far from me. I don’t know if I should’ve introduced myself, or if I should just be like I had seen a celebrity and go up to her and talk like crazy. But I let her past. I don’t have the courage to go up to one of the mane six and introduce myself yet for some reason. Did Alex introduce himself to the whole mane six yet?

During my whole time of thinking in my mind I didn’t notice Silver Sprint getting up from the bench and levitating his books in a stack until he started to trot away.

“Hey, where are you going?” I asked, pushing my thoughts away and followed Silver Sprint.

“Oh, I’m going to Twilightsparkle’s house to drop off these books, then I’m going for a run. I thought that you could stay at the bench until Alex comes back, in an hour or so. I’m really busy.” Silver Sprint responded.

I watched him walk away and decided that maybe I’m not fitting in right. I’ve got to some how get a friend who could at least be funny, not a brainiac like Silver Sprint. He may be really athletic, and smart, but he’s not the kind of guy I’d hang out with in my freetime.

I sat on the bench, I probably looked pretty lonely. Being one of the only few humans in this world sitting alone. I decided that I’m going to explore Ponyville myself tomorrow and I might even get the courage to meet one of the mane six also. I think I had taken a nap because when Alex came to get me I was sleeping.

On the way back to Alex’s house I told him about my first day in Ponyville by myself.

“Well, I guess tomorrow you could go roam around by yourself. It’s not always easy, it wasn’t easy for me. The best way to become acquainted with somepony is to get a job. I’ll suggest that for you.” Alex had said after I had finished telling him about my boring day.

While Alex was getting ready for bed I went into his study room again, something told me that I was really curious about those papers on the desk that I saw this morning. I had noticed this morning that I had seen a picture of an orb that looked pretty shady to me. I looked at it and read a note nearby it.

"A human who practices the magic in Equestria, will become unhealthy and insane. One who does learn magic, will become insane in the process, as to that they’re not supposed to be able to learn magic. Magic is a power that can never be explained. It has no nature, structure, or behaviour.Only those who were meant to have magic may learn it’s secrets."

Author's Note

What do you think? Will Justin gain any true friends? How long will it be before the ponies become used to Justin's presence there in ponyville? What do you think Alex is truly studying about?

Justin seems pretty lonely. Alex seems like a nice guy, but he isn't a kind of guy Justin would hangout with though.

Chapter 5

Chapter Five - Sucking It Up

I heard a noise behind me as Alex walked into the study room.

“Hey, you know it’s a little rude to sneak into my studies. It’s okay though, it’s really not anything important I’m studying about. Just some basic magic history for my classes.” Alex said behind me as I stared at the note.

“You’re not studying pony magic, are you Alex? I mean, like being able to wield and use it.” I turned around and looked at him and expected an answer.

“Why would I be? You’ve probably read that note I found inside an Equestrian History book. Magic makes us insane and unhealthy. We’ll have sudden bursts of magic, which may kill us, and others around us. I’ll never risk any dangers like that here,” Alex responded calmly, “Now come on, I’ve made us some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and some milk on the side.”

I stared at Alex blankly, he looked away and moved out of the room silently. There was something strange going on. I decided I’d keep out of it and try to live a peaceful life in Equestria. I walked out of the room and ate some of those peanut butter and jelly sandwiches Alex had made me. The bread was toasted.

It was a new day of my life in Equestria. Alex and I had already started to get ready to leave. He told me that he had ordered a copy of his key to his house from the local locksmith. It was going to be finished by the end of the day when the pony locksmith was done finishing all of this orders. I had to promise him that I would at least try to find a job, and make a new friend. Friends make living here a lot more easier, and fun.

I was standing outside Alex’s house, I didn’t know where to start. He had given me a map to Ponyville though. I could only just stare at the piece of paper deciding where to start. I was feeling pretty nervous. I decided I would go to the pony square. The center of Ponyville where all of the main events happened everyday. I didn’t really feel like finding a job, but I had to or either I would have to get Alex to pay practically everything for me.

While passing the Sugarcube Corner I was deciding over if I should just suck it up. Stop being so nervous and just go try and meet some ponies for once. Maybe If my first pony of the mane six that I introduced myself to was Pinkiepie, it’d might be a little easier. I’m okay with Pinkiepie being crazy in every sort of way. Although I’d never want to be in a locked room with her for a whole day probably.

I decided to suck it up and be a true man, or Brony at least. I started to walk up to the entrance of Sugarcube Corner when I heard a familiar high pitched voice near me. I knew who it was, I smiled as a reflex for knowing who it was,

“Hey! I’ve never seen you around before! Where did you come from? You look exactly like Alex! Well, not exactly, exactly, but you know what I mean! We should become friends, and I’ll even throw you a party for being new to Ponyville!” Pinkiepie giggled as she smiled at me through the opened windows of Sugarcube Corner. She burst through the entrance door carrying a small wagon.

I knew what it was going to be.

I watched in awe as the small wagon broke the laws of nature. It opened up from the top as I watched a party cannon and an oven appear. Pinkiepie giggled and laughed as the oven opened up and balloons, glitter, and all sorts of party decorations flew out and blasted us both. Even though it was pretty surprising and colorful and fun, I couldn’t help but at least cover my face to protect myself. I heard the party cannon make a sharp boom noise as it shot. A huge pile of cake mix downpoured on us.

Well, I was completely covered in sticky cake mix batter and glitter and colored paper strips. I had to admit, it was a pretty strange sight. But I couldn’t help but laugh by how completely strange we both looked. I felt like some kind of goo monster. It’s pretty hard to move in cake batter.

“Oopsy daisy! It looks like I did it again! I totally forgot to put the cake mix in the oven! Looks like I switched’em again!,” Pinkiepie giggled. She’s always happy when she see’s someone else smiling, “Hey! I’m Pinkiepie! So, whats you’re name?” She asked with a grin.

For some reason I couldn’t think for a second, but I finally got my senses back and said something through all of the gooey cake batter, “I, er, am Justin. I’m new in Ponyville. How do I get out of this stuff?!” I asked.

“Oh silly me!,” Pinkiepie laughed in glee. She quickly licked herself clean, cake batter and all. She quickly ran inside Sugarcube Corner and ran back out with a vacuum cleaner. I didn’t know this was all possible, but it must be possible in Equestria at least, but Pinkiepie actually did get me clean with a vacuum cleaner. It was pretty strange.

Chapter Six, Part 1/2

Chapter Six - I Really Need Some New Clothes

The day had moved by really fast after that. I finally did actually have a fun time for the first time in Ponyville. In fact, I’ve actually never laughed in such a long time. Pinkiepie will always get others to laugh and smile in any way possible. I learned the “fun” way to make cupcakes. I actually got to meet her younger siblings Pumpkin Cake and Pound Cake. They are so obnoxious and crazy. They might even grow up to become ponies like Pinkiepie even. She said that she’d teach me how to ice skate like a pro. But I kind had of let her down when I told her that I could only ice skate with two legs, not four. Gummy her pet alligator was gumming the bottom of my jeans when Alex walked into the Sugarcube Corner.

“Justin, so you’re over here! I’ve been looking all over for you! I see that you’ve got a new friend,” Alex looked over at Pinkiepie who ate a cupcake whole, wrapping and all, “We should get going now. It’s getting late and you’ll be able to get up tomorrow morning and meet some more ponies. Come on.” Alex said tiredly and urgently.

“Aww, does he really have to go already? Well, maybe I’ll see you again soon! Be sure to always visit whenever you want a snack or to party!” Pinkiepie watched Alex and I leave. I waved goodbye as I started out the entrance door.

Alex and I started to walk towards the direction of his house when he stopped me and pulled something out of his pocket.

“Hey, the locksmith finished the copy of my house key. Take it and you’ll be able to get back to my house during the day if you need some rest or whatever.” Alex handed the key over to me. I reached for it and grabbed it then put it into my pants pocket.

I really need some new clothes, I’m going to have to visit Rarity’s clothes store the next day whenever I can. I was pretty full also, from eating at the Sugarcube Corner, so I denied Alex’s hay smoothie. I don’t even want to know how THATS supposed to taste like. I’ll try it out sometime later.

I awoke to the strangest dream ever. For some reason, I was a pony in my dream. It was probably because I’m living in Equestria right now, but it was even weirder than that. Most of the dream ony lives. Just had to use my knowledge to figure it out. For an example, Twilight’s house is the only treehouse here on the map, so it’s pretty obvious.

was blurry and unclear, the sounds were silent. But I was sure I was in love with somepony in my dream. I remembered the information Alex was telling me three days ago, I didn’t want to be like the two other guys in the jails of canterlot in the dungeons. I’d better stop eating so much sweets before bed I guess.

I still didn’t really know my way around Ponyville yet. I had to use Alex’s map so I could get around. I could see every shortcut and also every landmark here. It doesn’t say where exactly everypony lives.

I followed the map, took the winding turns, looked for the shortest way through Ponyville to Rarity’s house. Ponyville actually looks bigger than it seems, especially with the Pony Square, the town center. It’s huge. I’m probably going to know my way around pretty quickly. Just need to know where everything is exactly.

I followed a dirt path towards Rarity’s boutique. When I thought about it, it’s going to be kind of weird. Am I just supposed to ask her to make clothes for me? I knew that I would have to order it, that means I would have to explain what I wanted to be made. This was going to complicated.

My hand twisted the doorknob as I swung it open.

Chapter One: The Beginning

Well, I guess this could be called the introduction. Maybe because I still haven’t introduced myself huh? You’re probably thinking why a story is talking to you. You’ll find out later why I guess! All I’ve got to say is that you can call me Justin Yang. Haha, funny how my name’s the same as the author’s name, eh? It’s because I have something to tell you. I’ve discovered something that many have wished it were true. But they eventually gave up on that hope, lost it all. You probably want to know what it is. I believe in something. I believe in it so much that I even think it’s real. Another world, so far away, it’s so different from ours, it’s beyond our own imagination. I often have dreams, thoughts even of myself immersed and living in this strange world that I believe in.

Everyone makes fun of me, that sometimes even think that I’m crazy. But I won’t give up my love. Even if it’s only about an animated cartoon series. You’re probably guessing what the cartoon series is already. Maybe you’ve guessed it right or wrong. Either way you’re going to love this story that I’m going to tell you. I hope that you keep reading!

Chapter One - The Beginning

I opened my eyes to the darkness in my room. I turned my head to my desk lamp next to me where my alarm clock stands. As I slowly regain my consciousness, I notice that it’s six thirteen in the morning. I always thought that I was special because I could wake up for school almost at the time that I was supposed to wake up. Knowing that it was time to get ready for school I go into the same routine that I do every weekday, that I have done every year of my life so far. I pushed my graffiti styled blankets off of me and slid over the edge of my bed. I stretched and cracked my back.

I walked over to my closet and chose a gray and black striped hoodie out of it. I knew today was going to be a hard day. A hard day of studying, having annoying teachers who really seem like they don’t even pay attention to themselves. As I finished undressing and then dressed into my fresh clothes for the day, I grabbed my backpack and headed out my room. My door seemed loud at the time. Given that only I was the only one awake in the house, and it was dark and silent. My younger sister should probably wake up soon. It’s almost six thirty and we both leave for middle school with the city bus that picks us up comes around seven ten. Since I had a little bit of time to myself I started up the computer in the living room and turned on the lamp next to it.

I watched as the windows symbol on the computer screen appeared and glowed until it took me to the starting screen. I quickly typed in my password to my account and opened up the internet. I spent the rest of my time before the bus came checking out my Youtube inbox. I looked behind me and made sure my younger sister was still in the bathroom putting on her makeup and putting the finishing touches to her hair. I quickly went typed in Mlpforums.com into the address bar at the top. I had a few notifications saying how cool my mixes are on Youtube. Oh yeah, I didn’t mention that did I? I’ve been a Brony ever since when My Little Pony Friendship is Magic came out in two thousand ten. I’ve lived through the 4chan wars and when the brony fandom started up. I’ve also starting creating mixes and remixes. Although I can’t say if I’m good at it or not yet.

“Justin! Come on! Get your shoes on, it’s almost seven ten!” I heard my little sister yelled at me as she ran down the stairs from the living room that went to the front door.

“Yeah, yeah, Molly.” I answered back to my little sister and quickly hit the start menu and shutted down the computer. I didn’t want to be late for the city bus again as I did the day before.

I ran down the stairs and put my feet into my shoes, pushing them in and adjusting them quickly without my hands so I could get out the door faster. Right when I walked out the door the city bus was already at the bus stop in front of our house. I quickly ran down my lawn and got into the bus. Swiping my bus pass to get in. Man, I can’t wait to get home.

After a long day of surviving bullies who knew that I was a Brony. They found out I was one after I showed my face for the first time on Youtube. It was kind of funny that some of my fans were actually from my school. They liked my music, but they ignored the pony thumbnails and such. I walked into my bedroom and dropped off my backpack at the bottom of my bed and climbed in. I propped up my pillow and closed my eyes. I imagined myself in the world of My Little Pony, Equestria. I could see myself standing there. In the fields of rich greenery and sweet smelling plants that made my nose happy. The equestrian breeze flowed through my hoodie and swirled through my fingers. It was certainly better than this world I lived in. A world filled with war, pain, sorrow, and of all things, a world without peace and happiness. One might find peace and happiness somewhere on Earth, but it would soon be consumed by the darkness of the world.

I would usually imagine myself in Equestria. Imagining awesome and fun activities I would do with the mane six. I would imagine quests and battles of epic proportions. I would usually imagine myself as a human there. I usually thought what would really happen though. Would Fluttershy call me Justin The Ape? Would Twilight try constantly to understand my species and where I came from and my origins.? Would Rainbowdash even find me cool? Would Vinyl Scratch think my music is so good that she’d want to learn from me? There is one thing I do think about a lot. Even if I do get a chance to be in Equestria. Would they even be able to understand my language, not think of me as some kind of alien like they did with Zecora, would they try to stay away from me as if I was some kind of monkey with a strange disease? After a long time of imagining I eventually fell into a nap.
