  1. “Awww my head"
  2. >Your head is killing you, not any more than a usual hangover                                                            
  3. >but still                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       >Fuck                                                                                               
  4. >What didn’t feel like a usual hangover was the pain on the back of your neck, a Tingling sensation across your body and the stinging light shining in your eyes.                        
  5. “God i hate the sun”                                                                                           
  6. >Wait....its September in a big English city; it’s not normally this sunny...
  7. >your jimmies remain at half rustle while you try to stand up
  8. >objective 1: check if you’re hurt
  9. >objective2: stand up
  10. >objective 3: find out where you are
  11. >your vision is still blurry so you feel behind you to see what you’re leaning against
  12. >Feels like a tree                                                                                                                                                              
  13. >Well that explains the pain on the back of my head.
  14. >You feel the back of your head and check for blood, success you’re not bleeding
  15. >You drag yourself up, leaning on the tree and shielding your eyes from the sunlight
  16. >Okay that’s two steps down now for the third
  17. >You look around, studying your surroundings,  trees everywhere... nothing suspicious here.....
  18. “TREES EVERYWHERE!!”
  19. >You live in a city not fucking Sherwood Forest what happened?
  20. “Ok just think about this logically”
  21. >You say to yourself
  22. > the adrenaline from the situation obviously helping with your hangover
  23. >You got drugged
  24. >And now you’re in a forest
  25. >Easy, this a practical joke
  26. >You’ve been dropped of in some....... Nearby fucking nature reserve as some cruel joke
  27. >That’s okay
  28. >just some hidden camera show, maybe they’ll show up soon to tell me which cheap show I’m on..
  29. >Lovely, it will give me a chance to kill them with my bare hands....
  30. >With your situation figured out you decide to start walking, the edge can’t be that far out surely
  31. >You continue on for what seems like 30 minutes? Maybe longer, you’re not a good judge of time
  32. >you still see no signs of civilisation, just trees and wildlife, great
  33. >As you walk you start to sing to yourself to pass the lime
  34. >Oceans by Evanescence
  35. >The sound must have woke up something in the woods as what seemed like a chicken appears in your peripheral vision, just to your right.
  36. >Without breaking you’re stride, or song, you kick it into a nearby tree, seemingly killing it or knocking it out.
  37. >fucking hate animals
  38. >anyway
  39. >You carry on walking past the tree
  40. “CROSS THE OCEANS IN MY MIND...AHHHHHHHAHHHHAHHH...wait?”
  41. >You stop and think
  42. >I could be lost for a while; i may have to do some bear grills like survival shit here
  43. >You better keep that bird for food
  44. >You walk back and look at your ‘kill’ you immediately sense a disturbance in your jimmies....
  45. >Picking the......thing...... up by its tail you give it a thorough examination....yep defiantly a thing..
  46. >Bat wings, chicken body, shark teeth, snake tail
  47. >looks like something from a Tim Burton film
  48. >it almost looks familiar but you don’t know where from...
  49. >You sling it over your shoulder and carry on walking
  50. >When you finally escape you can hand it over to the lab coats at Birmingham uni
  51. >Maybe they’ll let you name it...that’d be the shit
  52. >You carry on walking; you try to think how long you’ve been walking
  53. >instinctively you pull out your iphone from your left pocket
  54. >3:00 in the afternoon, well those must have been some pretty strong drugs
  55. >you move on to checking the map..
  56. >Nothing..no satellite signal...your jimmies rustle slightly before you think
  57. “ it’s probably the trees, can’t get a signal”
  58. >You proceed to check your phone and as you thought no signal
  59. >Master of deduction
  60. >Upon realizing that you have your phone you stop and check your other pockets
  61. >Knife check, wallet check
  62. >This was pretty reassuring, you knew now that when you did reach the end of this forest you could pay for a train ride home or a hotel or something.
  63. >That is if you are anywhere near a town and haven’t been dumped in some nature reserve somewhere.
  64. >You carry on for EXACTLY 23 minutes before seeing the edge of the forest
  65. “Finally, you can get out, get a train home and find out who did this to you so you can cut his ..........wat”
  66. The sight you saw rustled you beyond imagination

  69.  
  70. >Ponyville....it was unmistakable...colourful ponies, big eyes and everything..all talking, carrying things walking along a dirt road leading into town it was fucking >...........unmistakable.
  71. >You dived behind a tree sitting to catch your breath
  72. >This cant be a hallucination you’ve been awake for hours, you pinch yourself repeatedly to test if it’s a dream, stare at your hands to check for a trip
  73. >nope  all ten fingers completely clear.
  74. >The thing next to you, you knew you recognized it from somewhere, a cockatrice, capable of turning you to stone by looking at you
  75. >thinking about it your lucky to  be alive..
  76. “okay”
  77. >You whisper to yourself
  78. “Need to scout this out make sure I’m right”
  79. >It could be a different place, as in no mane six or ponyville, what if they don’t speak English?
  80. >What if the date is different and all the ponies I know are dead?
  81. >You scout out the town and.....
  82. >yeah it was ponyville... you could see Rarity’s house, the tree house, the town hall, everything you even think you saw the cmc running around.
  83. >Okay you need to calm down and think.
  84. >You fling your cockatrice over your left shoulder and move into the forest...
  85. >it had started to rain so you needed somewhere dry collect your thoughts
  86. >You find a large rock and a fallen down tree forming like a makeshift camp
  87. >Lying down on the soft leaf layered ground you begin to weigh up your options
  88. >Do you want to live in equestria? Do you want to go home? If this really is the equestria you’ve watched for the last year can you use it to your advantage?
  89. >All your life you’ve had one dream, all the work, exams and planning was all leading to you being a scientist or politician, someone with power and responsibility.
  90. >Somebody with a worthwhile life, who made a difference who helped people and made their lives..........
  91. >easier............
  92. >Sod it you just wanted the power.
  93. >You wanted to be rich, able to afford all the things you could never have....
  94. > holidays, big homes, you wanted to be famous, not too famous, just well known and respected...you wanted to be....
  95. >*THUMP*
  96. >OWW!!!!!......
  97. >In your excitement at the situation you had forgotten that you where lying under a fallen tree and you ended up banging you’re head pretty hard
  98. >You lie back down rubbing your forehead
  99. >Believe it or not
  100. >Here you are somebody
  101. >You’re an alien, you have knowledge of alien technology, you know equestria is pretty much in the medieval times in terms of technology
  102. >With your knowledge you could do anything
  103. >If you just went home or lived a normal life in equestrian you would be living type of life you hated
  104. >9-5 job, family maybe, completely expendable just another cog in a machine
  105. >But
  106. >Here I know their personalities
  107. >Their life styles
  108. >Their leaders
  109. >Their weaknesses

  113. “POWER BUT NO FOOOOOOD”
  114. >You had just realized you haven’t eaten all day     
  115. >the sound from your stomach being a dead giveaway
  116. >You can’t eat the cockatrice; the fucking thing can turn people to stone! It’s too valuable to eat
  117. >You couldn’t go into town now, you’d probably get the zecora treatment, yeaaah you need to keep a low profile.
  118. >You turn around now lying on your side
  119. “I’ll try and get some sleep, then get food”
  120. >You knew you needed someone to get you food
  121. >You needed someone you could reason with
  122. >Someone logical, someone you knew well, their personality, their mannerisms
  123. >Someone easily trusting and gullible
  124. >There’s only one option really, You think as you nod off to sleep
  125. >planning your next steps in your mind
  126. __________________________________________________________
  127. __________________________________________________________
  128. >You wake up refreshed and  .......staaaaaaaaaaarrrrving!!!!
  129. >You stretch your body, clicking your neck and arms.
  130. >You begin to get up, stopping just before hitting the tree
  131. “You’re not getting me this time tree!”
  132. >Yeah you showed that tree
  133. >Rolling over to your left you get up, stretch properly and look up toward the sky
  134. >Looks like night time
  135. >You check your phone, 6:24
  136. >Perfect the town should be quiet
  137. >You grab your phone, wallet, knife and uuhhhhh cockatrice.... before heading out.
  138. >You where smart enough to leave a trail leading you to the edge of the Forrest.
  139. >Peeking your head out from behind a tree you look around town.
  140. >Closed stands, house lights on, perfect
  141. >You had two objectives
  142. >Get something to cover up your pet dead bird thingy
  143. >Then find twilight’s tree house and charm my way into her letting me stay and have something to eat.................
  144. >You had weighed up pinkie but you decided on twilight as you figured she’d be easier to charm
  145. >you say charm but you mean bullshit, bullshit like you’ve never bullshited before
  146. “Yeeeeeaaaaaah that should do the trick”
  147. >Random pony:”did you hear something dear?”
  148. >Shit nigga
  149. >You practically full faceplant as you try to get under a nearby window.
  150. >full sneak mode engaged
  151. >You hear the above window opening and see out of the corner of your eye a bright yellow pony stick her head out and look around.
  152. >Random pony: “must have been my imagination”
  153. >Just like Skyrim
  154. >You get up of the floor now crouching as you creep around town
  155. >After a few minutes of aimless wondering around you spot Rarity’s boutique with, just as you expected, cloths left on the washing lines.
  156. >Jackpot
  157. >You wanted some cloth to cover up your cockatrice , you had a cunning plan for this cockatrice and you DO NOT want to lose it.
  158. >grabbing one of the large sheets
  159. > which looks like a bed sheet or something
  160. >you tie up the cockatrice with a nearby stick
  161. >it looked like some classic hobo style shit going on
  162. >but it was perfect for the story you’re giving twilight.
  163. >You casually walk to the library, knowing now you have your story set and ready
  164. >Arriving at twilight’s house you knock and await a response
  165. >After a short period the door was answered by a confused looking spike
  166. >Spike:”uuuuuuh who are.....”
  167. “Hello i’m looking for a twilight sparkle, i was sent by Celestia.” You say in as cheery and nonchalant voice as you can manage
  168. >The surprised looking spike shook his head quickly then replied
  169. >Spike: “sure she’s just upstairs” he pulls you inside and runs to the stairs
  170. >Spike “TWI! THERES SOMEONE HERE TO SEE YOU”
  171. >He really is just like a little kid, I used to do that whenever my mum asked me to get my sister...
  172. >Twilight: “WHO IS IT” she shouted back
  173. >Spike “I DON’T KNOW HE SAIS CELESTIA SENT HIM”
  174. >Twilight: “..........I’LL BE RIGHT DOWN”
  175. >You close the door behind you and place your ‘hobo stick’ down next to the door
  176. >You begin to rock on your heels as you wait for twilight, hearing frantic moving of books and paper up stairs.
  177. >You see the door open and twilight trot down the stairs, she looks just like the show, a little shorter than you imagined but...
  178. >Twilight: “I’m sorry for taking so long, i don’t normally get visitors from the princess, i assumed it was a check up so i did a little cleaning up, I’m a little surprised the princess didn’t .....Send ....a......let......ter...........”
  179. >The purple unicorn stares blankly at you for a few seconds looking you up and down.
  180. “Ah, the princess said you might react like, is there some where we can sit so i can explain?”
  181. >She shakes her head a little before replying “ummm ofcorse, spike can you go make us some tea?”
  182. “FUCK YESS i could do with some tea right know, milk and two sugars please”
  183. >Spike proceeds to look daggers at you before being interrupted by twilight
  184. >Twilight: “spike! We have a royal guest we should be catering to his every need!”
  185. >Spike “but twilight”
  186. >Twilight “royal guest” she said through gritted teeth
  187. “yeeeeaaahhh and speaking of catering do have any food?”
  188. >Spike “  I’ll have a look around” spike trotted off to the kitchen in what seems like a bit of a huff
  189. >Twilight “now if you follow me to living room we can get down to business”
  190. “After you”
  191. >Told you she was gullible
  192. >Heh if I can pull this off I’ll deserve an Oscar
  193. >Don’t get ahead of yourself now this is the hard bit, screw up and you’re in deep horse shit
  194. >Okay just try and be calm.
  195. >Twilight sits on the floor across from you, you where sitting on a settee with a small coffee table in-between you , it was a little small but you where able to fit.
  196. >Twilight looks full of questions so you decide to pre-empt her
  197. “I’m sure you have a lot of questions”
  198. >Twilight “oooh like.. Who are you, what are you and why are you here?” she says with a consummate smile on her face
  199. “Yeah like those, basically Celestia recruited me to deal with the changeling problem equestria has been having, you may have heard about the attack on the wedding?”
  200. >Twilight “i was there actually”
  201. >nice touch
  202. “really? Celestia never mentioned that, well my people are experts on dealing with changelings so they sent me to help with the problem “
  203. >twilight: “you’re people?”
  204. “oh yes I’m a hairless monkey from a place called Simonium you may have heard of us?”
  205. “i haven’t actually”
  206. >Ha I’m one step ahead of you bitch!
  207. “Well we are a nomadic people, quite a lot like the zebras really”
  208. >You had a feeling after the whole zecora and ‘dont judge a book book by its cover’ bullshit she’d fall for this one
  209. >And surprise surprise, you can see her visually click and her body language loosen up
  210. >Twilight: “Sorry, i was just a little suspicious as the princess normally sends me letters about important matters like this”
  211. >She lowers her head looking a little dejected
  212. >Shitshitshit i hadn’t thought of this
  213. “ummmmmmmm....well....it was classified information, had the changelings intercepted the letter my life would be in danger.......she did say you where her most trusted and talented student, she >probably just trusted that you’d cope”
  214. >The mention of ‘trusted and talented’ seems to have done the trick
  215. >Thinking about it
  216. >You can’t remember the princess actually showing any approval to twilight
  217. >You hadn’t even finished your thoughts before being interrupted by an exuberant
  218. >Her eyes widened and so did her smile
  219. >“did she really say that??”
  220. >Careful now
  221. “yeah she was literally singing your praises, saying you where the best student she’s ever ha........UGH!”
  222. >Before you’d even finished you where buffeted by a star struck twilight hugging you tightly
  223. >You’re mind crossed quickly to the thousands of autists who would kill to be where you where now >but you’re train of thought was, again, interrupted by
  224. >“Thank you! Thank you so much, I’ve been waiting so long to hear anything like that from the princess!”
  225. >“ooooooh I’m so excited!” she said clopping her hooves together like a little filly “I’m going to go tell all my friends about this!”
  226. >Awww that was adorable....NO STICK TO THE GAME PLAN MAN! You need to ask her about staying the night... and for food....God I’m so hungry....
  227. >Almost as if on cue spike walks in, carrying a silver looking tray with tea and sandwiches...
  228. >Daisy sandwiches......
  229. >fuck me I forgot about those...
  230. >I’ll have to work on getting a hold of some meat once I’ve paid my ummm...........
  231. >‘visit’
  232. >To the changelings tomorrow
  233. >Spike: “I’m not interrupting anything am I?”
  234. >Twilight’s sudden hug and burst of emotion had left her sitting on your lap without realizing
  235. >This elicits a deep blush from both of you as she hopes onto the seat next to you
  236. >“oh no....nothing i just got some very good news from mister....”
  237. >She gently slaps her forehead with a hoof
  238. >“how rude of me i haven’t even got your name mister...”
  239. >...........................................................
  240. “Anonymous....Anonymous unknown”
  241. >Smooth, but I could get used to this
  242. “just call me anon, all my friends do”
  243. >spike:“ahem”
  244. >Oh yeah i forgot about spike and my precious food
  245. >Rabbit food..... but still, foooooood
  246. “Cheers spike”
  247. >you take the tray of him, you place the tray in the middle of the table and help yourself to the sandwiches and other treats, cakes and biscuits predominantly
  248. >Tea as well, perfect, weak, milky and sweet how I like it, even the sandwiches where good, would be better with a big slab of ham but hey beggars can’t be choosers
  249. >twilight “Wow you must have been hungry”
  250. >Oh yeah i forgot all about puplesmart and spike
  251. “yeah I’ve been travelling for two days and i haven’t had much to eat”
  252. >twilight “Couldn’t you have just stopped and bought some food?”
  253. “Don’t have any money, well no bits at least”
  254. >You flash some five pound notes you had in your wallet for that extra believability
  255. >twilight looks at you strangely “isn’t the Princess paying you for this?
  256. “No actually, it’s more a favour, im shure the village elders will pay me when i get back”
  257. >Village elders? Seriously? Okay just run with it
  258. “so yeah until then i guess I’m just winging it”
  259. >Twilight “That’s terrible they should be giving you more help”
  260. >spike “heh ‘winging it’ that sounds like something dash would say”
  261. “yeah she probably would”
  262. >twilight “wait, you know dash?”
  263. >Your eye twitches
  264. >shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit common man calm down shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit JUST PUT ON YOUR COOL FACE!
  265. “ummm yeah kind of....cyan Pegasus, rainbow mane, crashed into me earlier while practicing tricks”

  267. >Phew
  268. >After that little close shave the
  269. >Thinking about it
  270. >There were quite a few ‘close shaves’ maybe it’ just me overacting
  271. >Anyway I haven’t exactly given her any reason not to trust me
  272. >Yet.....MUHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
  273. >Meanwhile the three of you continue talking for a little while
  274. >Well, they were talking, you where merrily stuffing your face and nodding in agreement
  275. >After a while you stealthily checked your iphone for the time, wasn’t that late about 10:30
  276. >twilight “wow is that the time, spike you need get to bed mister!”
  277. >Again! This is getting creepy now
  278. >spike “come oooooon twi its Saturday tomorrow!! Why can’t i stay up?”
  279. >Good it’s Friday, i was wondering but i couldn’t read the pony language on the calendar
  280. >“now remember spike you have plenty of chores....you have to help me organize the library send that pile of notes to the princess”
  281. > She points a hoof at a large and obviously neglected pile of letters
  282. >“and you promised to help rarity with her orders remember, know you wouldn’t be my top assistant if you neglected your chores would you?
  283. >spike “i guess not”
  284. >......fuck it I’m gonna have a little fun here
  285. “as...what?.....I’ve never heard of that before..”
  286. >twilight “really, assistant, you know like a helper someone who does chores or jobs for you”
  287. “ooooooohhhh you mean like a slave....”
  288. >This immediately causes twilight to spit out her drink in shock
  289. >While spike, on the other hand, is giggling franticly
  290. >twilight “oh nonononononoonononono spike does his chores because he wants to, it’s his job..”
  291. “Oh so you pay him then”
  292. >Twilight “well no, it’s complicated..”
  293. >spike “yeah twi why don’t i get paid!”
  294. >Twilight begins to push spike out of the door
  295. >twilight “heheheh he gets a bit cranky when he’s sleepy I’ll...put him to bed, I’ll be back in a bit”
  296. >spike “i don’t wanna go to bed i wanna talk about why i don’t get pa-*THUMP*“the door is slammed shut mid sentence
  297. >You couldn’t help but laugh out loud
  298. >This whole night was worth just for the look on twilight’s face just then
  299. >You walk around the library for a few minutes while twi sorts out spike
  300. >Nothing you didn’t expect
  301. >Piles of notes, letters for the princes, a metric fuck ton of books oh and you cannot forget yourchobo stick with my cockatrice inside, I’ve got big plans for that cockatrice

  305. >“spike is not a sla-......*sigh* oh forget it, do you want me to get your bed ready”
  306. >you snap out of your giggling fit long enough to reply
  307. “Yes please if isn’t too much trouble”
  308. >“oh it’s nothing, especially for someone doing so much for equestria”
  309. >Oh yeah i forgot about that
  310. “yeah about that, if is is’nt too much trouble could give me hand getting some ingredients for my ‘changeling repellent’ tomorrow?”
  311. >“absolutely! I’ll do anything to help keep equestria safe! What do you need?”
