Twists and turns in life

Somewhere in Europe there lives a boy at the age of 17 in a country called The Netherlands.

He was very depressed, He lost his parents, and his friends didn’t want to talk to him because he is poor. The only thing that kept him happy for time to time was a show called My little pony. He watched every episode of the show during the time he lived in his parents’ house.

He had a part time job at the supermarket where he works about 4 days a week for a small fee, It’s not much but it’s something.

One day before his birthday he got fired because he asked for more money. Thanks to that he was forced to live on the streets because he didn't had the money to pay the rent. Now it’s even worse than before, he was getting sick and was somehow not able to walk. He had no money to pay a doctor or a hospital when he lost all hope to get a new home or a family. He tried fall asleep to gain some energy for the oncoming days.

--- Chapter 1: A rough start ---

It’s your birthday today but it was a day like every day filled with sadness and depression. You knew today a new episode would come out for My little pony, but you didn't had the money to stay in a house or to even own a Laptop to watch the show.

“Oh yea in a few hours a new episode will come out for the show” you say with a low voice.

You sighs “ My last hope for -some- happiness fly’s by like a leaf in the summer wind”.

You close your eyes to get some sleep until the next morning. As expected it was a restless night, cold, dark and full of unwanted people.

The day after your birthday was yet again a regular day like every other day. Later in the afternoon a old man walked by and saw you in the corner of the street with your arms around your legs to keep yourself warm.

The man walked to him and spoke to you with a nice warm voice.

“hello young man, are you alright?”.

You look up with a surprised look on your face, when you whisper,

“I’m fine thank you for asking”

“It looks like you got some problems on your hands young man” he replied with a heartwarming voice.

“I’m cold, lonely, sick and poor it could not get any better” you say annoyed.

“I can’t walk, I don’t have money to pay a doctor” you say while turning away from the old man.

“I can sense a lot of pain in your heart, come with me I will give you something to eat and a place to sleep for the time, doesn't that sound like a great idea?”

A small smile starts to grow on your face as you nodded.

"good I will carry you to my house, if that’s ok of course?"

"it's fine, since I live on the street, I lost some weight. So I'm not that heavy."

After the man carried you inside his house, he went inside the kitchen to prepare a proper meal. You were waiting for him while you looked around as you saw allot of antique furniture, which looked like it was more then a hundred years old. as the old man returned from the kitchen he placed a plate with some meat and vegetables you started right away with eating the meal he prepared for you.

after a few hours you were put in a chair as the man started to tell stories about other worlds filled with dragons and other wonderful creatures.

"you know son there are people that believe there are other world in the universe filled with wonderful creatures, like dragon’s, but one world stood out of the rest it is called Equestria and its filled with beautiful flowers and bright colors, there are so called ponies who live there together in harmony." He said

Somehow that sounded pretty familiar to you. you were silent for a moment as you remembered the show you were watching at your home before you were kicked out the house.

you started to laugh "That sounds just like the show I was watching at my home, it was called My little pony: Friendship is magic. it somehow kept me happy till i was forced to leave."

The man looked at you before a big grin started to spread across the old man his face.

"Hahahaha". "I know that show too, my grandchildren always watch it on the television."

As the man moved on with his stories you sometimes dozed of in the chair. He noticed that you have fallen asleep when he peeked at his watch. he sees it's passed eleven and he wakes you up.

"he wake up..."

he pokes you in the belly but you kept on sleeping.

he rubs his chin when he had an idea. he slowly walked next to me when he yelled in your ear,

"BOOO!!!!"

"WHAAA! WHAT WAS THAT GOOD FOR!" you shout at the old man before you both shared a moment of laughter when he silenced you,

"It's passed eleven, it's time for you to get some sleep if you want to regain some energy to take on an other day."

you nodded in agreement as he lifted you up. He brought you to your bed that he prepared for you when you were eating your meal. he places you inside your bed and you pull the blanked over yourself as you give the old man a final look as you say,

"I don't know how i can repay you for this..."

"There is no need, I totally forgot to introduce myself, My name is James, and you are?"

"The name is Jack..."

"Well Jack just lie down and take some rest, I will see you tomorrow morning, Good Night Jack."

"Good night James..."

as James leaves the room you close your eye to doze away by the sounds of the wind and the rain that falls on the roof above you. As you fall asleep you showed a smile on your face by the thought you have a new home and a family.

you made a small wish in your head "I wish if its possible to live with James forever in the colorful world of Equestria."

A few hours passed as a white light filled your room.

"What is going on here... where did this light come from..."

at that same moment a unknown voice came out of the light.

"Fear not young one, we followed you for a few years and noticed you were lonely and sad and we can grand you a wish."

you were still a bit shocked by the light and it took some time to realize that it could grand one wish.

"Eh... everything i wish will come true?" you ask.

"yes and i have an Idea what your wish would be but i need to warn you I can only take you Jack and not the man called James... "

"NO! I won’t leave without him. What will he do when he find out I'm gone."

"Don't worry, when you are in Equestria no one will remember you... but there is one more thing you need to know, I understand you know allot and that's why I need to remove your memory. The next morning you wake up you are free in the new world."

"please Wai-" you blacked out after the light disappeared.
