>Well you seem to have fallen backwards and hit your head, Sir.

>Why your brain has the voice of Michael Caine is beyond you..

>ANYWAYS Brain, what’s the situation?

>Well, we saw a 4 legged quad-pedal creature that spoke, then you fell backwards, hit your head, and blacked out.

>I guess that sums up things.. Thanks brain.

[Mysterious Creatures POV]

 

“No.. nononononono! That wasn’t suppose to happen!”

>He wasn’t supposed to get hurt! Celestia damnit!

>While in the middle of your panic, you get an idea.

>You lift him up with your magic and float him over to his..  machine.. The one that moves really fast.

>Leaning him up against one of the wheels, you magic open the door and have a look around..

>You only see one thing, it must be his saddle.. So you think.

>You grab his saddle with your mouth and then lift him off the ground while using magic and make your way back to your hideout.

>Which conveniently enough wasn’t very far from the house you decided to make your appearance at.

>You set his stuff down in the corner, then set him down in the chair.

>Taking off your hood and gown you quickly run to your supply crate and pulled out some bandages not sure if you were going to need them.

>With further inspection of the subject, he does infact have a little bleeding coming from the back of his head as well as a lump.

>Flickering your magic you snugly wrap the gauzes around his head and making sure it was secure you start to concentrate all your magical power to open up a portal.

>The sheer importance of this cannot wait, you’ll tell him when he wakes up.

>You grab his things, them him and make your way through.

>With a crackle and some fizzling the portal closes.

>You are Anonymous and you are… moving? What the hell?

>You’re pretty sure you hit your head and blacked out, why would you possibly be moving…

>Wait.. That creature from before.. Did it kidnap you?

>Jolting awake out of your slumber like a goddamn zombie.

“Ow.. My fricken head..” rubbing the bump on your head, noticing the gauze wrapped around your tender lump.

>You noticed that the creature from before is backed up against the wall of what seems to be a moving cart?

>You must’ve scared the hell out of it.. Well serves it right for kidnapping me.

>Time to get some damn answers.

“You..”

“What are you..?”

>Dumbfounded that you spoke, the creature tries to mutter some words, but to no avail.

“C’mon, you spoke before I’m pretty sure you can do it again, no need to be scared.”

> …

> …

>“Well.. I..I am a Unicorn.”

“Uhuh.. Well seeing as everything else I’ve woken up to hasn’t made any sense, what’s your name?”

> …

>“I.. I-I’m uhh.. *ehem* My name is Twilight Sparkle.”

>You can’t help but snicker at the silly name.

>“Hey! What’s so funny?”

“Oh nothing.. Just a thought.. Anyways why did you kidnap me?”

>Crossing your arms expectantly while raising your brow.

>“Oh hehe.. Yeah I was going to tell you why I was in your world before you.. You know had your accident”  she smiles sheepishly.

>“You see.. My teacher, Princess Celestia and her sister Princes Luna have been using their minds to search the universe for somep0-er.. Someone like you.”

“But what for and why..? I was kinda ya know.. Living out my life and suddenly I’m kidnapped by a tiny talking Unicorn.. Why me?”

>“Well it’s because a grave danger has been threatening our land and you’re the only one who can help.”

“Well from what you told me.. Why out of ALL the galaxies and planets in the universe did you choose me? Especially out of millions of my own kind!?”

>That kind of lashes off your tongue when you said that.

>You didn’t mean to be so harsh but damn.. Why me man? Why me?

>She shrinks back a bit at your outburst but recovers.

>“Well it has something to do with your human mentality and spirit.”

“Oh please.. Enlighten me.”

>“Well, we’ve been researching your kind for quite some time now”

“That isn’t creepy or anything..”

>Twilight just glares at you.

“Continue..” you say calmly.

>“Anyways.. Humans just have something about them that makes them special.. Their willingness to help others in need.”

“You do know that not all humans are the same, right?”

>“Yes, and that’s why we chose you.”

“Well isn’t that lovely, I’m chosen out of millions.. I must be very special..”

>“Well yes, why wouldn’t you be?”

>Apparently, Twilight doesn’t seem to sense your sarcasm.

“Twilight.. Me? Being special? C’mon now.. I’m a nobody.. Honestly, how could I possibly ever save your world?”

>“You shouldn’t doubt yourself like that Anon..” She says with a worried look on her face.

“Well still, why am I so special?”

>“You’ll have to speak with the Princesses about that, I was just sent to come and escort you back to my world.”

“Well, where are they?”

>“We’re on our way to go seem them as we speak!”

“Well, alright then.”

>

>

>Silence fills the cart of what seems to be a train cabin.

>Could explain why your moving.

>Pondering on some thoughts, you decide to ask Twilight about her malevolent rulers.

“So… Twi, is it alright if I call you that?”

>“I don’t mind, all my friend call me that! You’ll have to meet sometime.”

“Anyways, Twi, I was wondering.. What are you rulers like?”

>You almost instantly regret asking.

>Man this unicorn can talk really fast.

>“Wellyouseetheprincessesareallpowerfulrulersofthelandofequestria!”

“Woah woah woah.. Twi, you’ll have to slow down a bit.”

>“Sorry about that.. hehe” obviously blushing from embarrassment.

“You were saying?”

>“Well the land we live in is called Equestria, and it’s ruled by two princesses, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.”

“Two princesses? How does that work? Wouldn’t that you know.. Mess up the whole Monarchy thing?”

>“You see.. Princess Celestia makes the Sun rise and set everyday, and..”

“Luna raises and sets the Moon?”

>“You’re a quick learner Anon.”

“So you have two demi-goddess Princesses that raise and set objects that usually take their own coarse where I come from?”

>“Well pretty much, yes.”

“Fascinating..”

>“Anything else you’d like to ask?”

“Yes.. how does two princess work politically? I’m still a bit confused about that.”

>“Well as you can see th-”

>*ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR* *TSSSST*

>The train comes to a screeching halt.

>You turn your attention towards Twilight.

“I guess we’ll have to find out won’t we?”

>Twilight nods, then uses her unicorn magic to open a cupboard above you.

>Hey! It’s your backpack!

“You grabbed my backpack for me? Twilight, you shouldn’t have.”

>“Well I figured you’d need some of your things.” She says smiling brightly.

>If only she knew of the evil that you had in your backpack..

>You open it up a to see that in fact, your labtop complete with charger are in there.. Hmm.. What else did you leave in here.

>Your personal stash of weed.. Wait? And seeds? Oh lucky day!

>You’re not sure if this place has this lovely herb you hold dearly, but they do now, you grin to yourself.

>Rolling papers? Bowl? Sweet shit.. You’re mostly set.. Hmm.. What else.

>You zip open your side pocket to find your ipod charger, you would gloat to yourself.. But you’re not sure if they have Electricity in Equestria.

>Better safe than sorry.

>You double check your pockets to make sure your ipod is with you and thankfully it is.

>There is a God.

>Content you zip back up your belongings and throw your bag over your shoulders.

>As you make your way out of the train cabin, you turn to Twilight.

“After you Miss Sparkle.” gesturing her out the door.

>So the Adventure begins..
