"WHAT? YOU KNEW ABOUT IT? ALL THIS TIME?"
-
>"Calm down Anon, I can explain."
-
"Twilight! I thought we were friends!"
-
-- later --
-
>Being the only human in Equestria wasn't always easy.
-
>It has been what? Almost a year?
-
>One year since you have first woken up in Equestria, a year since you've been kidnapped form your life.
-
>Year since everything you knew was taken away form you.
-
>But it didn't matter. Not for long, anyway.
-
>You've discovered a new world, met a race of pastel colored horse and made new friends.
-
>Or at least that's what you thought.
-
>...
-
>It hurts.
-
>Your heart, your feelings.
-
>Your alleged best friend that graciously allowed you to live in her castle has betrayed you.
-
>She was not your friend and you were not her guest. She was a liar and you were... you are... her prisoner.
-
>All this time you've been searching for a way home.
-
>To return, to let everyone know that you were alive, or just to know that your home still exists?
-
>You don't know for sure, but that didn't bother you right now, because you've finally found it, and it's clear that you have to go.
-
>I's been hiding in the hoofs of your friend, former friend.
-
>Bu that doesn't doesn't matter now either, you're going home.
-
--later that day--
-
>"Anon, please! Listen to me! It's not safe!"
-
"You've been through it before."
-
>"Yes, and it turned me to a human and spike to a dog. What if it turns you into a pony!"
-
"Gee, Twilight that's... I've never thought of that."
-
"I mean, being a pony? For the rest of my life? Can you imagine how horrifying that must be? I mean, how could anyone..."
-
>"I'm not joking Anon!"
-
"Well, neither am I. Do you have any idea how many things do I have to catch up on? Books, movies, cartoons, games!"
-
"And all my friends probably think I'm dead! They care about me and I need to let them know that I'm a live."
-
>"I care about you too."
-
"..."
-
"If you really mean that, you will open the damn thing."
-
-- moments later --
-
>OOOOOOH FUCK! WHY IS EVERYTHING MADE OF COLORS! AAAAARRRRGH!
-
-
-- some more moments later --
-
>You're blind, your head is spinning, and you're lying flat on some cold hard surface.
-
>But at least the colors are finally gone.
-
>Ughhh, where are you? Is this Earth?
-
>Come on Anon, you know you can do it, sit up.
-
>Why does your head spin so much?
-
>Gooood... now open your eyes... slowly, slowly...
-
>...
-
>Pavement... blue sky... grass... ughhh... houses?
-
>Yes... those are definitely houses.
-
>Houses... with roof tiles?
-
>They don't have those in Ponyville, right?
-
>Well, you're not in Equestria anymore, that's for sure.
-
>And that big building in front of you? that must be the Canterlot high!
-
>You've never heard of town called Canterlot before Equestria, but once you'll find out what state you're in it shouldn't be a problem for you to get home.
-
>However, first you need to get off the ground.
-
>Just push yourself up and...
-
>Wait a minute?
-
>Why?
-
>Why are your fingers green?
-
>Nonononono, this isn't good! It's not just the fingers!
-
>You shouldn't be green! you've never been green!
-
>Why the fuck did you insist on coming through that portal!
-
>Why didn't you listen to Twilight? She was right about this!
-
>Wait... No, she wasn't.
-
>You still have fingers, not hooves!
-
>Let's call it a tie.
-
>"Hey, are you all right? Can i help you?"
-
>Who is that?... And why is he yellow?
-
"No I... uhhh.. I tripped..."
-
>Why is he looking at you like that? And why is his hair blue?
-
>"You sure you're okay, dude?"
-
"Yea.. I'm positive, thanks for asking."
-
>...
-
>*fhew* Anon, that was close.
-
>Get of your ass and stop being so conspicuous, just try to blend in.
-
-- some time later --
-
>There's lots of people, and all of them different colors.
-
>Red, blue, orange, magenta, green, white...
-
>Not a single black person though.
-
>Is that a good or a bad thing?
-
>Hmm...
-
>Well one thing's for sure.
-
>Wherever it is you are, It's not your Earth.
-
>...
-
>Why did you have to be green anyway?
-
-
-- even later --
-
>You can't just keep roaming like this forever.
-
>If Twilight was right, it will be a few more days before she can open the portal again.
-
>You need to find a place to sleep.
-
>Wasn't she supposed to have some friends around here?
-
>Now, if only you could remember where did she say they lived.
-
-- even more later --
-
>Knock knock.
-
>Please let this be the right door. Please let this be the right door. Please let this be the right door.
-
>...
-
>Yes!
-
"Hi, I'm Anon, are you Sunset Shimmer?"
-
>"Do I know you?"
-
"Twilight didn't tell you about me?"
-
>How typical of her, leaving you out of everything.
-
"I'm Anon, the only human in..."
-
>Damn, you'll need to find a new way to introduce yourself.
-
>Why is she looking at you like that?
-
"Anyway, I'm one of Twilight's friends, I came here from Equestria, through the portal, the same way you did."
-
"I need a place to stay until the portal opens again and... I wanted to ask if I could crash in your house for a few days."
-
>There must have been a better way for you to say that.
-
>"Look, I don't know who you are, or what crazy things you're talking about... But I'm sorry, I want you to leave."
-
>Fuck, it's all or nothing.
-
"You were born as a horse, unicorn to be exact. That symbol on your shirt?
-
"It appeared on your flank when you were a filly and finally found your special talent.
-
"You grew up in in a castle on a side of mountain called Canterlot as a protege of princess Celestia, you..."
-
>"All right, I believe you! Get in!"
-
>...
-
>"Don't do that again, okay? Can you imagine what would happen if someone heard you?"
-
>"..."
-
>"Anon, was it?"
-
"Full name Anonymous, but everyone calls me just Anon."
-
>"Well 'Anon', would you kindly explain to me what the heck is going on?"
-
-
-- later that day --
-
>Salty, chewy, fatty.
-
>Who cares that it's a junk food?
-
>You've almost forgotten how dead animals taste like.
-
>Murder, has never been so delicious.
-
>Every bite makes you want to go and slaughter a whole zoo.
-
>Oh, how much you've missed the simplest of human pleasures.
-
>even just talking to someone with two legs feels great.
-
"... and then she falls right on my face, knocks me over, and we both end up on the ground."
-
"I shake it off like nothing happened, and get up again. But she? She's still on the ground mumbling about me being an asshole or something."
-
"So, I want to be nice, offer her hand and *snort* I'm like 'are you ok? did I hurt you'. She *cha* she *heh* she turns around and *hah*
-
"and she's like 'BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!' jumps right back up the tree like a cant and starts making this weird noise like *heh* like"
-
"*iiiiik*, *iiiiik*, *iiiiik* *hehehehuhahaha*"
-
>"bwhahahhaha"
-
"*ahaha*"
-
>"*haha*"
-
"So *heave* anyway... that's how I first met Rainbow Dash."
-
"..."
-
>"But don't tell her I told you that, she'd kill me."
-
-- even later that day --
-
>"It's getting late, we should go to sleep. I gave a school tomorrow and you..."
-
"No thanks, I've already graduated once and I'm not interested in any of that teenage drama."
-
"I'll just take a look around the city, or visit some places or something."
-
"It's not like this is my first time in another dimension, remember? I can manage."
-
>"Yeah, right."
-
...
-
>"So umm... where do you want to sleep? I don't have a guest room."
-
>"My bed is big enough for two people... but... umm..."
-
"Ohhh, that... don't worry about it... I'll seep on the couch."
-
"As far as places to sleep on your first night go, this dimension is heavenly."
-
"In Equestria I had to do with a pile of leaves and twigs."
-
-
-- that night --
-
>The couch is fine.
-
>A little bit too old, but fine.
-
>At least it's big enough for a human.
-
>And the blanket is so soft and warm. Snuggling in it feels so comfy.
-
>Nothing like those glorified towels that ponies call blankets.
-
>Constantly wrapped in their own fluffy fur, those little things have no idea how to appreciate this level of softness.
-
>...
-
>This place is different.
-
>Wherever that portal took you, it's not the Earth you came from.
-
>How does that portal work anyway?
-
>Why did you turn green and not into a pony?
-
>Maybe it's broken?
-
>What if you turn into a pony when you go back?
-
>You don't want to be a pony! That was just a joke!
-
>Twilight was right, coming here was stupid.
-
>She could have at least warned you that people here had colors.
-
>It would have tipped you off that this was the wrong dimension.
-
>Fucking book horse.
-
>...
-
>Nah, it's not her fault, ponies have pastel colors too, it must have been completely normal to her so she just didn't mention it.
-
>Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to be a pony.... it could be so cool.
-
>At least, flying and magic would.
-
>Being an earth pony would suck.
-
>...
-
>What if you wouldn't be a pony at all?
-
>How about a gryphon? Now THAT would be cool.
-
>Not every one who's a human here is a pony in Equestria.
-
>You're pretty sure you saw three guys that were supposed to be diamond dogs.
-
>...
-
>Ho..
-
>HOLY SHIT!
-
>Buddha Jesus Allah Odin! THE DOGS!
-
>When Spike want through the portal he turned into a dog!
-
>Which means...
-
>If you were to buy a dog and bring it back to Equestria...
-
>You don't even care if you're going to turn into a pony or not.
-
>You're going to have your own frigging DRAGON!
-
>...
-
>But what breed should you get?
-
>No offense Spike, but dragons are cooler with wings.
-
>You can't just buy a puppy and then put it away when it doesn't grow wings.
-
>It doesn't matter, dragon is a dragon, and you're not going to love yours any less just because it doesn't have wings.
-
>...
-
>You should really go to sleep.
