  2. >Sleep is being a bitch tonight
  3. >You turn to your iPod dock

  15. >Hearing the ambient tunes fade in, you turn on your back and stare at the ceiling
  16. >It's relaxing, but it's not working
  17. >You swear you just saw a flash of light from the corner of your eye
  18. >You quickly sit up and look about your room
  19. "...Ugh. Now I'm starting to see shit."
  20. >You fall back on your bed feeling defeated
  21. >Fatigue is setting in, from not being able to get any sleep ironically
  22. >You feel like shit
  23. >Then the light flashes again...and again
  24. >It's beginning a pattern
  25. >It flashes once, then after a few seconds it flashes again, the time between each decreasing as it continues
  26. >You get up from your bed to confront the cause of this light, music setting the mood
  27. >It's coming from...your closet
  28. "No way, not again."
  29. >The time between flashes became nonexistant as the light gleamed past the closet door
  30. >You really should've closed it last night
  31. >Memories of fear flood your mind as you're brought back to that moment eight years ago
  32. >Nobody believed you when you told them, not even your parents
  33. >And now the light had returned
  34. >You hoped you weren't going crazy
  35. >The closet door was slowly opening, revealing the light and blinding you
  36. >You weren't going to squander the chance to figure out what was happening this time
  37. >You walk forward, the light engulfing you
  38.  
  39. >You open your eyes
  40. >Sleep is being a bitch...this...morning?
  41. >You sit up, only to be greeted by trees. Lots of trees
  42. >It seems you're in some kind of forest, with no idea how the fuck you got here
  43. "The fuck is going on here?..."
  44. >You get to your feet and lean against the tree closest to you
  45. "Alright...I was in bed. It was almost 4 in the morning...some kind of light. And now a forest...A really really colorful forest."
  46. >You look to the sky through an opening in the trees, the sound of what seems like a jet approaching fast
  47. >Well, at least you're on Earth
  48. >Some reassurance would help, which is why you're waiting for the jet to pass by
  49. >When the sound comes to its peak, though, your hopes are smashed by a passing rainbow
  50. >A rainbow...that just flew by
  51. >What the fuck
  52. >You lean back against the tree and groan, crossing your arms and smacking your forehead with a wrist
  53. >If your reality wasn't already shattered before, the rainbow that just flew by hammered it to shit
  54. "Ugh...Well I'm not getting anything done by just standing here...As much as I don't want to, I gotta start moving."
  55. >You decide to head in the direction the rainbow was headed
  56.  
  57. >This sucks
  58. >Having to trek through the forest in only a shirt and sleeping pants
  59. >At least you decided not to sleep in the nude last night
  60. >Finding civilization was going to be tough enough, you didn't need to be naked for it
  61. >Passing a line of trees, you come across a dirt path that conveniently curves in the direction you're heading
  62. "Fuck yes, this is going to be easier than I thought."
  63. >As soon as you step on the path you hear a female tone humming a theme from a long-forgotten toy commercial
  64. >In the distance, what looks like a pink minature horse with a curly-looking mane and tail hops out of the forest and onto the road, continuing to hop and hum as it makes its way down the path
  65. >A pink minature horse
  66. >With a mane that looks like a natural hairstyle...well...as natural as curly can look on a horse
  67. >Not to mention it could sing
  68. >You swear you could spot some blue and yellow mark on its flank
  69. >You decide to follow the horse, moving back in the forest and following the path to better conceal yourself
  70. >Hopefully it will lead you to civilization
  71. >The thought of a town filled with other pink ponies invades your mind for an instant
  72. >After a few minutes of following, you lose sight of the pink horse
  73. "Dammit..."
  74. >You step out of the forest back on the path
  75. >A field of blue flowers greets you
  76. "Hey, not bad."
  77. >You decide to pick one up and keep it
  78. >Blue -is- your favorite color after all
  79. >You kneel down to pick one from its stem
  80. >Before you can touch it, a voice rings out
  81. >"Stop! Don't do it!!"
  82.  
  83. >You're suddenly tackled on your back by...oh hey, it's the pink horse
  84. >The voice indicates it's a she
  85. >As if suddenly figuring out you're dangerous, the pink horse jumps off of you and backs off
  86. >You sit up and look at her, taking in her appearance
  87. >She seems to be doing the same
  88. >You two stare at each other in silence for a few moments
  89. >She decides the break the silence
  90. >"What are you?...Where did you come from? What's your name?..."
  91. >The questions come out at a break-neck pace
  92. >Some of them you can barely understand
  93. >You stand up and she gasps, seeing that you walk on two legs
  94. >"How do you go to the bathroom like that?"
  95. >Being a horse, she wouldn't know how a human does its business
  96. >You find it hilarious that this is the first question she raises after seeing you stand on two legs
  97. >You burst out in laughter and lean on a tree
  98. "Oh man, I haven't laughed like that in a while."
  99. >The pink horse smiles at you and slowly walks towards you
  100. >"Well I'm glad I could make ya laugh, mister..."
  101. "Anon, my name's Anon."
  102. >You're talking with a pink horse
  103. >Countless hours of reading fanfics and playing videogames kinda numbed your surprise of this
  104. >Honestly you kinda hoped something strange would happen to make your life more interesting
  105. >The phrase 'be careful what you wish for' comes to mind
  106. >"Well nice to meetcha, Anon! My name's Pinkie Pie and you're my new friend!"
  107. "Friends already? But we've barely met. And you don't know a thing about me."
  108. >You give her a confused look. She replies by holding a hoof to her mouth and giggling
  109. >You have to admit, she's kinda cute
  110. >"Weeeeell I can tell that you're not from here. Aaand you like the color blue."
  111. >She can tell just from looking at you that you're not native to these parts
  112. >She's never seen a human before, that's for sure. Unfortunately this could also mean humans don't exist here
  113. >If they did, you're sure this forest wouldn't be here and these horses would be dissected for science
  114. >Humans can be real dicks sometimes
  115. "So how do you know I'm not from here?"
  116. >"Duh! Nop0ny would touch a poison joke field. Oh wait, did you lose a bet or something?"
  117. "Huh? Poison joke?"
  118. >And did she just say 'nop0ny'?
  119. >She gasps
  120. >"You've never heard of Poison Joke? It's a mean plant that plays jokes on ponies that touch it. I mean, I like playing pranks on people, but this plant goes too far! Before I knew what it was me and my friends ran into this field chasing Applejack's sister. Next thing you know my tongue swelled up and I couldn't talk! My friend Fluttershy's voice got super deep, Applejack turned reeally reeeally tiny, Twilight's horn went all flobby and wobbly, Rainbow Dash couldn't fly right, and Rarity's hair went all wacky!"
  121. >This mare sure had a lot of energy
  122. >You couldn't help but smile as she panted, out of breath, after her speech
  123. >Your confusion doubled, though. Apparently her friend "Rainbow Dash" was a Pegasus, seeing as she could fly, and Twilight a Unicorn, since she had a horn
  124. >"Man, this plant sounds like a huge ass."
  125. >She gasps
  126. >"Hey, that's not a nice word. If my friend Cranky head you say that, he'd be so mad."
  127. "Why? Does he not like curse words?"
  128. >"No way. It's because he's a donkey, silly."
  129. >Apparently 'ass' is a racial slur out here
  130. "Sorry about that. I'll be sure to only use it when referring to one's buttocks."
  131. >Pinkie laughs
  132. >After you share your story of how you got here and answering almost every question she posed earlier, Pinkie Pie offers to take you to Twilight's place
  133. "The unicorn you mentioned earlier?"
  134. >She nods ecstatically
  135. >"She's sure to know something about how you got here. She's probably read every book in Equestria!" She finishes with a giggle
  136. >You shrug
  137. "Sounds like a plan. Let's go, Pinkie Pie."
  138. >The pink mare smiles and leads you around the Poison Joke field
  139. >Exiting the forest, you're greeted by a landscape full of life and color
  140. >An apple orchard to your right
  141. >The path before you lain over rolling hills
  142. >A town in the distance
  143. >It's a strange setting, but you could get used to it...
