Final hours

Knowledge.

It's needed in a land with no law and if you have it you'll survive longer.

Waking up in the morning isn't as bad anymore but I felt something warm and pink next to me or sleeping beside me.

I looked to see Pinkie resting her head on my stomach I didn't mind much since she was asleep.

Her poofy mane kept tickling my chest. But the thing I kept looking at the most was her chest I mean sure I'm a guy and but she's a pony or what ever you call a pony with human features.

Still they all look pretty hot I mean come on who wouldn't tap that but they're a different species and that would be sick. Would it.

I tried to move but to no avail so I did the most likely thing that pinkie would like to be woken up by. So I tickled pinkie on her sides she started squirming and then giggling into full blown laughter.

"S-stop I-it Robert." Pinkie said trying to make me stop tickling her

Her laughter and then turned to pleas so I stopped and she slowly caught her breath she seemed happy but then turned to me and asked "Why did you do that."

"Well I thought it would be the best way to wake you up." I stated

"Oh sorry for sleeping on you it was cold I want to get warm to slept on you to get warm."

"It's alright Pinkie. You were kind of warm though are you feeling sick or anything."

"Oh no its not just uh it's nothing."

"Alright well we need to get to library without any delays. Wake up everyone in five minutes well I get breakfast started."

"Yes sir." She said giving me a salute. I chuckled at her antics I wonder how she's always happy but then I remembered what twilight said.

Don't try to figure out Pinkie your head will hurt a lot less. She's right about that.

"So what's on today's agenda." Ruby asked

"Well we need to go to the library this time with no delays. After finding the map to nearest observatory. We need to find a car." I said eating breakfast

"So no more delays we get to the library and get out of Boston and then where."

"California." I stated

"Woah Cali are you sure we want to go west I mean don't get me wrong I would love to go but what about mutant bears,wolves,pumas,and mountain lions."

"I'm not to sure about going to California." Twilight said

"And why's that."

"Didn't ya hear your sister. Mutant wildlife." AJ stated

"Look it's our best bet to get you girls home. Who's with me."

"I am." Rainbow said

"Me too." Pinkie shouted

"Fine I'll go but we better get to library fast." AJ said

"Alright then let's go." We packed up everything and proceed out the backdoor going through the forests.

"So what's making you doze off so much?" Twilight asked

"Just the journal I'm reading in the journal Krystal said that they were training children to shoot." I said

"But you taught me to shoot when I was ten." Ruby stated

"Yeah but that was for survival. They just wanted an army."

"Hmm what exactly did she see."

"She shot a fake gun and a barrel exploded engulfing three men in flames."

They gasped as they heard that I imagined they never heard of that type of violence.

"Oh my kids had to endure that." Fluttershy said

"That's messed up." Rainbow said

We walked some more until we saw wrecked buildings many of them gone and almost destroyed.

I thought this was going to be an easy trek through the city but I saw something that made my skin crawl. A wolf with its skull exposed seeing its brain matter out and somehow it was still alive.

"Oh shit a fucking wolf. You girls might not want to look." Ruby warned

"Why not." Twilight said she looked at the wolf it's skull broken the brain intact and somehow alive. It's paws pad ripped open exposing the blood. It's side ripped of its skin and exposing its ribs and innards.

I vomited then and there I've seen them many times before but this just took the cake. I could help but look at that wolf and feel sorry for it.

"Hey Robert you okay." Ruby asked

"Yeah I'm okay I know I seen them many times before but this. Its just sick."

Seems like Fluttershy couldn't stand seeing it either and vomited too. I took a waterfall and swished the water and spit out the rest of the bile.

"Are you okay Fluttershy."

"No it's just-" she then buried her head into my chest and started crying.

"Oh those poor animals I just can't stand seeing them like this. I wish I could just leave this Celestia forsaken world and go back to my home." I reached over and patted her shoulder.

"It's okay Fluttershy I promise any animal that looks like that I will end their misery. I promise." I whispered in her ear

"You promise you'll end their suffering starting with that one."

"Yes Fluttershy I promise I will end his suffering." She gave me a small kiss. It was kind of awkward since the girls were staring and she did have a little bile on her lips. But I didn't mind it one bit.

I broke our hug and whistled towards the wolf. As soon as he saw he ran towards me looking to kill me. As soon as he was ten feet in front of me I took out my revolver and shot it the bullet went through the exposed part of the head of the wolf. It drop and bled to death. Fluttershy had her eyes closed she didn't want to see any of it.

"Let's go we're near the library." I stated we got to the center of town and entered the library and oddly enough it was still in intact. It was about midday when we got here.

We went our separate ways as we entered the library. Pinkie lead me into the children's section of the library she seemed pretty happy about me with her.

POV of Twilight

"So Twi do you trust Robert yet." AJ asked

"I don't know yet. He seems pretty reasonable but just his outside that bothers me."

"What bothers you so much that you don't trust him. If you don't mind me asking." Fluttershy asked

"Well he seems pretty calm about killing those monsters and how calm he was when Pinkie left him. Leaving him and several of those monster against him."

"Look Twi Pinkie apologized for leaving him and once she came back to us her hair was poofy of that isn't enough evidence then I don't know what is." Rainbow said

"Also he looked sick when he saw the poor wolf like that and wanted to end it's misery. And he comforted me when that happened." Fluttershy stated

"Twilight you can believe anything you want but me,Applejack,Rainbow,and Pinkie trust Robert."

POV of Robert

"So why are we in here again Pinkie." I asked

"Well silly we are going to find some books on your world I want see what you have to offer here." Pinkie said happily

"Hey Robert can we talk to you." Twilight asked

"Sure what is it Twi?" I asked

"How did your sister know our names even though we never ever told you."

"I think it's time I told you girls the truth about how my sister knew you girls."

"A long time ago around 2010 there was this show called my little pony friendship is magic. It was a very popular show amongst adult males and females. Anyway it follows six ponies their names were Twilight Sparkle,Applejack,Rainbow Dash,Fluttershy,Rarity,and Pinkie Pie."

They were stunned by this revelation but I wasn't done telling them on how they met.

Anyway You Twilight met your friends one by one first it was Pinkie Pie she knew your were a new pony so she planned a party for you. Then I believe you met Applejack next. She had a family reunuion that day. Then you met Rainbow Dash and proved she can clear the clouds in under 10 seconds. After that you met Rarity who gave you a makeover. After that you met Fluttershy who was helping some birds sing. She was extremely shy until she talked to Spike your assistant and dragon friend. A few hours later an evil being named nightmare moon attacked and you went to the library to find as solution. Your friends agreed to help you. Your first trouble was a mudslide applejack told you to let go of something I don't remember any way she was telling the truth and she saved you. Next a manticore was about to attack you but them Fluttershy help out the manticore it had a thorn stuck in its paw so she pulled it out. After that you girls got scared by some trees that looked scary but pinkie sung a song that made you laugh at the scary things. Next you girls encountered a river which you couldn't cross but you girls heard crying it was a serpent that had its mustache cut. Rarity cut her own tail to show here generosity. After that a rope bridge was cut off so Rainbow crossed it and was talking to a few Pegasi who called themselves shadowbolts and offered her a spot which she refused to help you girls. Finally you got to an old castle which had the elements of harmony after a little spat you revealed that each of your friends were elements of harmony. Applejack element of honesty. Rarity element of generosity. Fluttershy element of kindness. Rainbow Dash element of loyalty. Pinkie Pie element of laughter. And you Twilight element of magic. You girls defeat nightmare moon who was actually Princess Luna princess Celestia younger sister. After that was done you stayed in ponyville with your friends." After my gigantic speech they were stunned that I know that. They were actually crying.

"Girls are you okay?" I asked

"Robert could you please leave we would like to be alone." Twilight said

"Uh sure." I exited the children's section of the library and made my way to Ruby who was reading through the looking glass.

"So you told them everything on how you know them." Ruby asked

"Yeah they needed to know I didn't want them to figure out on their own it would complicate things even more."

"Better now then later I suppose. I just hope they aren't mad at you."

POV of Twilight

We were stunned that Robert knew about us he knew everything. Here we were just a fantasy and nothing more.

"H-how did he know." Fluttershy asked

"Was he lying that he knew what happened or was he telling the truth." Rarity asked Applejack

"He wasn't lying he knew about us." Applejack said

"I just can't believe we are just a story here." I said frowning and crying

"But what if he was trying to protect us." Pinkie said

"What if he wanted to tell us instead of us finding out by ourselves."

"Yeah you're right pinkie he was looking out for us." Rainbow stated

We all smiled at this he wanted to tell us so we didn't find out by ourselves. Wee got up looked for Robert.

POV of Robert

After a few minutes I heard the door to the children's section of the library open I didn't look back until I felt a gentle tug on the sleeve of my shirt. I turned to see Fluttershy I looked at her she proceed to pull me into a hug. I was confused because the rest of the girls proceed to hug me too.

"So you girls okay?" I asked they only nodded

"Well I think I should get dinner started." I said they let go of me and smiled I smiled back and walked away. They must of figured it out.
