Water, Water Everywhere...

I thought my life couldn't get any weirder.... It did finding out how a fight with my dad got me into the land of Equestria? Here I am getting ahead of myself.... I may as well introduce myself... My name is Travis and I am 17 years old. I have light brown hair and baby blue eyes. Most of my pals at school say i have my head in the clouds... Maybe because of my gambling habit at my age. And so let my story unravel...."

-At School-

"Travis? Travis!" My teacher Mr. Decker called from the front of the room breaking me from my day dream. He has an irritated look on his face... This is the third time I'd been caught zoning out in class today... Things just aren't going my way... "If you'd please answer this question for the class since you think you're smart enough to not pay attention."

* I probably should mention that Mr. Decker is my Math and science teacher... Tough break right? This guys life is wrapped around numbers.*

"What is the likeliness of getting 2 heads when you flip 2 quarters?"

"The answer is 25% or one-fourth." Mr. Decker's face turned a bit pale when I said the answer like he'd seen a ghost, but he continued the review.

*The Final Exams will be a total pain. Most of the exams are completely stupid. Easy... way to easy.*

- After School-

I hoped onto my bike. "Travis Rille!" I turned to a familiar voice to see a middle aged man heading in my direction. He is wearing a black suit and a purple tie with yellow poka-dots. Talk about no respect for fashion to make it worse he is wearing busted up athletic tennis shoes.

*At times like these being me is torturous...*

"Yes Principal Smith? Can I help you?" He gets right next to me wearing a sad face. He had given me three detentions in the past 2 months. So by the look of his face he was going to give me another one.

"You know why I'm here. It's about the look you gave Mr. Decker," His voice strict and intimidating but I could tell he didn't want to be because there was a slight waver in his voice.

*What face? I don't remember making a face....*

"What face? I don't recall doing that... if i did." I gave him a confused look that seemed to throw him off.

"He told me you gave him a terrifying death glare, but by the look on your face it seems you didn't do it on purpose. So I'll let you off the hook." He gave a sigh and turned away. "Have a nice day and a safe trip home."

"Sure thing Principal Smith. Have a nice day." I ride towards home pedaling a bit faster than i normally do because the more distance i get the freer i feel. School is a prison to me, something that holds me back. If only I could get out of it and fly away with wings of my own never being held down strapped to the ground.

Maybe dad is home so i can play him in chess or poker. Him and I have always played games after his long day of work and my school days. I open the door only to see the floor covered in water. "Looks like mom left the water running again." I made my way to the sink to find it isn't what is on. "That is weird... It's normally the sink... the only other water had to come from the bathroom." I make my way towards the bathroom to hear the sound of running water. I try to open the door but it's locked. "Well... that is great. Maybe i could bust the door down... No dad would kill me... He'd kill me for water being all over too. I'm going to get in trouble anyway so i guess busting it down won't be so bad."

*The door is made of a very thin wood I would know since my dad and I put it up. Since it is soaking wet it should easily break.*

"One." I touch my shoulder to the door. "Two." I lean away lowering my shoulder. "Three!" I ram the door with my shoulder making a sizable hole in it only big enough for my arm to go through. "Thank you water damage." I reach my arm inside the hole and unlock the door and open it.

"Mom must have left the sink on." It wasn't the sink. it was the tub, the cold water turned all the way on. "Dad is not going to be happy with this. May as well start cleaning after I turn this off." I turned the water off then went to the back room for some extra towels and started to wipe up the water.

-In Equestria-

A Changling is heading home to the hive. In order for him to gain rank in the army he must return alive with good information. What better information than a book of forbidden spells! It landed and went straight to the queen. She is going to be so proud.

"My Queen! I have brought you a book." The eager changling announced with excitement. He was tired from carrying the book but he was on a adrenaline high.

"A book? What book?" Chrysalis asked in a rather disgusted attitude still recovering from the wounds she received from the Canterlot wedding her mood is rather... sour.

"A-A book of forbidden spells." The changling said intimidated and less excited now. To be honest he was scared. So scared he nearly pissed himself.

"Forbidden you say? Interesting give it here." She said her tempered anger gone and replaced with a soothing voice.

The changling flew over with the rather large book and gave it over. Then turned flew back and sat down. His adrenaline high gone it was beginning to take it's tole. He slapped himself to keep awake.

Chrysalis looked through the book skimming each spell with no interest, until one caught her attention. "To summon a creature of destruction from another world. Most interesting. We shall try this spell tonight." She said with an evil laugh. All the changlings in the room laughed with her.She stopped laughing and at once all of them stopped. "Make preparations we will have a guest this evening and for many to come.

• In the human world -

The front door swung open and my father stood in the doorway. He is a rather heavy built man. Looks about 35 but is actually 43 years old. His hair is the only thing that gives away his age being that it is turning grey. "She did it again didn't she?" His voice sad and wavering as if he would burst into tears any second.

"Yeah... Only this time it was the tub left on. Also I had to bust a hole in the door to unlock it." I said the last part a bit quieter than the first hoping he wouldn't be mad.

"You what?!" My father's voice turned angry almost hostile as his eyes hardened and glared at me. It made me rather uncomfortable that he was glaring at me with such hostility. He looked ready to beat the living daylights out of me.

"I had to bust a hole in the door so i could turn off the water because the door was locked." I said trying to keep my cool. I knew this pushed his buttons but when dad starts crying he doesn't stop till he passes out. He won't listen now I know. Years of dealing with him while mom haunts the house.

Dad literally turned so red that if he was in a old cartoon hot steam would be forcing it's way out his ear. Picturing that made my smile a bit but as i did he rushed me nailing me in the face with a solid punch. In a sudden reflex i twisted my left leg using the force of his punch and lifted the right and round-housed him in the hip. The kick floored him. Dad laid there stunned I was just about a shocked as he was. I remember taking Karate lessons from Uncle Luis but i never knew i could do that reflexively.

Dad stared at me like a cornered wounded animal. To be honest it scared the crap out of me. I never seen dad's face look like that. I took a glance outside it started to get dark. Dark enough that I would get lost in the woods if i ran. I cursed myself in my head and looked back at my father. He was sitting in his favorite chair now minus the wounded animal face. He now seemed very calm, relaxed even. I knew what this meant i was going to be sent to boarding school.

At the moment he opened his mouth it snapped closed and his eyes widened with shock as he gulped. I gave him a confused look and got the hint that something was behind me. I froze and looked to the left with just my eyes and looked back at dad and he nodded slightly. I slowly turned my head to the left to look behind me.

"WHAT THE HELL?!?!" A large black starry portal was on the wall with green tendrils of magic sticking out grabbed my left arm and another grabbed my right arm I felt them start to pull. I started to struggle to hold my ground. They had a tough grip to break. I looked at my father and smiled. I raised my hand and waved bye. "Love you dad." I jumped up and let myself get pulled in. I knew that I couldn't break free from the tendrils so I let them pull me inside.

I could hear my father shouting but then it died away as the tendrils pulled me. Then i could feel a pulse go through me then i coughed up a silvery substance. I stared at it until I lost consciousness.
