What is this?
Long-ass intro
Load Full StoryNext ChapterI live my life just like any other brony. I lead a normal life, have a lot of friends, and just happen to enjoy My Little Pony every once in a while, despite beong a 17-year-old, male. One day, while I'm watching one of my favorite episodes, the Hearth's Warming Eve one, I get to thinking, I wonder what it would be like to actually be there, watching their play? In their world? Just as I finish that thought, I hear something loud happening in my closet, I turn to look and see some sort of portal forming. I look inside and the other end of the portal looks... familiar. I take a closer look and accidentally fall in. As a look around I wonder, Why does this place look so damn familiar?
“Hey! Who are you?” I turn around and see a bright pink pony with a mane a darker shade of pink.
“Pinkie Pie?” I ask in shock. That’s why this place is so familiar! She began to talk insanely fast, like she did when she threw that party after she first met Twilight in the pilot.
“Are you a human? I’ve never seen a human before! Well, except for the time when I visited this guy who took care of Dashie for fifteen years! He seemed nice, even though made me cry! I didn’t catch his name! How can you stand walking on your two hind-legs like that? Are those fingers? Don’t go near my friend, Lyra with those, she’ll FREAK OUT! How did you get here? And why did-”
I was finally able to stop her with a simple hand-gesture, which was amazingly effective. “Pinkie, I love you! You’re my favorite pony, but right now, it’s getting a bit too much!” I say as I rub the sides of my head, trying to reduce the effects of my already-unbearable migraine. How the hell can anypony put up with her?
She continued to talk, gradually gaining speed as she went. “Oh, sorry! I tend to talk a lot! I don’t try to; Twilight thinks I might have ADD or something, whatever that is! I noticed that spells ‘add’ like adding numbers! Isn’t adding fun? Like this one time-“
“PINKIE!”
“Oh sorry… again!” there was a long awkward silence, until the pink pony finally said, surprisingly calmly, “So, how did you get here?”
“Well I don’t really know to be honest, this portal formed out of nowhere in my closet back on Earth-”
“CLICHÉ!” Pinkie shouted with a sing-song tone in her voice.
“What?” I asked confused.
“Well it’s just that portal from your world that leads to ours! That’s been done to death! Too many bronies are writing that in their MLP fanfictions! It’s so cliché now!”
Damn! I forgot! That IS a cliché! How could I forget that? I thought. “So, um…” I started, awkwardly, “I’m gonna go back to my world now, and think of something more original and be back using that method, OK?”
“Sounds like a plan!”
“OK! There’s the portal!” I pointed to the portal a few feet to my left, “I’m gonna go back to my world and write that out of the story!” So I left.
*****************
(As I’m leaving through the portal, from a narrative POV)
“OK! Bye, weird looking, humaney friend!” As Pinkie Pie’s new friend was leaving, she saw a small black, rectangle thingy fall out of his pocket. The portal quickly disappeared as he left, otherwise she would have made an attempt to return it. He didn’t waste anytime writing that out of the story, did he? Pinkie thought. She went to go pick the rectangle up, wondering what it was, she saw a button with a square on it and decided to push it. She then saw this picture:
“HA! That’s my friend, Twilight! Look it’s my friend, Twilight!” Pinkie yelled as she shoved the device in Bon Bon’s face, who happened to be walking by.
“Leave me alone I’m very busy!” the latter yelled, with an annoyed tone in her current voice.
“What the hay is this?” Pinkie wondered aloud, looking at the black brick. “I should take this to Twilight, she might know what it is! She’s really smart!”

(later, at the Twibrary)
“Spike, where are my quills?” asked a certain purple unicorn.
“Where they always are: In your desk by the fiction section, why?” her similarly-colored assistant replied.
“Because I need them.”
Not wanting to question her for details, knowing that her answer would branch off into more questions, which, in turn, would branch off again into even more questions, he decided to leave it at that.
“HEY, TWILIGHT!” Pinkie yelled as she popped out of the drawer Twilight was looking in for her quills.
“AAAUGH!” Twilight screamed in shock, as she was not expecting Pinkie Pie, or ANYpony for that matter, to be in her desk. “How the hay did you get in there?!”
“I was wondering,” Pinkie took out her brick-looking thing. “What do you think this is?”
Twilight was too confused to speak. It took great effort to complete a simple thought, “I-I… I don’t… know! Where’d you get it?”
I can’t tell her about the humans or the fourth wall yet, it is not yet time. She could end up betraying me once my battle against the fourth wall begins. I still need time to learn to trust her. Pinkie thought to herself “I just found it lying in the street!” she lied.
“Well whatever it is, we should ask Rainbow Dash, she might know!”
*****************
(later, Rainbow Dash shows up to the Twibrary)
“How the hay should I know?” The Wonderbolt-wannabe responded when questioned about the device. “It looks like something Rarity would use, let’s ask her!”
*****************
(this process repeats until the rest of the Mane Six, and for some reason, Lyra, are all gathered at the Twibrary)
“Oh my Celestia! Are those FINGERPRINTS?!?!” the mint-colored, unicorn asked in excitement when presented Pinkie’s new-found treasure.
“What-prints?” Rainbow Dash asked even more confused than ever.
“Umm, nothing!” the embarrassed Lyra mumbled.
“Lyra, what are you even doing here? Shouldn’t you be hanging with your girlfriend, Bon Bon?” the pegasis taunted.
“She’s not my girlfriend!” Lyra argued. “Why does everpony always assume that? So we hang out together, yes! But that doesn’t mean we’re dating! We’re just really close friends! Nopony thinks Vinyl Scratch and Octavia are going out! Or Derpy and Carrottop!”
“Geez! Sorry! Why so suddenly hostile?”
“Sorry, after hearing that everyday it gets really annoying! It doesn’t even make any sense!”
“Guys!” Twilight yelled. “We’re losing focus on what’s important!”
*****************
(meanwhile, back on earth, in my POV)
“OK, an original way to get to Equestria! Original, original, original!” I pondered. “A child’s wish? No! I wake up as a pony one morning? No! A magic well in my backyard that takes me to Equestria? NO! I think Inuyasha already did that last one! Dammit! This is a lot harder than I thought!” I decide to call my brony friend, David, to see if he has any ideas. I reach for my iPhone to find it’s not in my pocket. Oh dear God! “DID I LOSE THAT IN EQUESTRIA?!?! SON OF A BIT-”
*****************
(back in Equestria)
“So does anypony have any idea what this could be?” a purple unicorn asked, hoping for any kind of story.
“Ooh! Me! Me! Me! Pick me! PICK ME! MEMEMEMEMEMEMEME!” Pinkie yelled, eager to give her story.
“Applejack? Any ideas?” Twilight asked.
“Sure! Ah got one!” Applejack responded.
“Aaaawwww!” a disappointed Pinkie Pie exclaimed.
