FILLER CHAPTER! WHOOOO! All that waiting for a filler chapter, yeah life can suck.

I was planning to make this a really grand chapter, revealing a really big mystery plot Ive had in my mind, but then this ended up being filler so I could tie together all the other plots into a good timeline, sorry I'll get to work on the next one ASAP.

But since I was half way through it and I found a way to tie in a whole bunch of other stuff that you guys dont know about, it sort of had to be a filler.

Anyway if you spot any errors or loopholes please let me know, I'm tired as hell so there might be a loophole in the dialouge somewhere, I'll fix that.

"So why are you here Ditzy? Shouldn't you be at work or something?" I asked her as she walked in.

"Oh, it's my day off; I just wanted to see if you had woken up yet."

"She spent her day off checking up on me? Wow… This wouldn't have happen back on earth…" It felt good to know that someone cared or somepony, especially since we had just met a night ago.

"I brought you some muffins Michael" she said with a bubbly smile on her face.

"Heh heh, wow thanks d- AAAAAAARRRRRHHHH!" I screamed as pain bored into my brain. I clenched my head with my fists.

"Oh no! Are you okay?"

"Urrrh, its fine I think I'm used to it by now. I have a sugar crash whenever my friends stay over for the weekend anyways." The pain was sharp and constant, like a migraine.

"Hmm, we could go and see if Zecora has a potion for it. I'm sure she will!" Encouraged Twilight. "Let's go Ditzy!"

"But I want to stay here with Michael" Ditzy protested.

"Actually, I think it's better if you go Ditsy" I added. "I think I just need some peace and quiet right now."

"Oh sure…all right." Ditzy had a hint of sadness in her voice. As the two ponies strolled out with the front door closing behind them I thought:

"Wait, did I just kick Ditzy out? Argh I'm so stupid, she's got to be the friendliest pony ever. Man I feel like such a dick." For a while it was all just a mesh of pain when I tried to think, I heard footsteps and Spike came down the stairs.

"You're still here?" He asked me.

"Yeah, and before you ask yes I know what I did at the party. Even though I can't remember half of it, just hope I didn't do something I regret. AaaaAARH!" Another strike of pain came into my head, like a power drill.

"Are you okay?"

"Sugar crash, migraine, nuff said." My stomach grumbled and I realised I hadn't eaten since last night. "Oh man I'm getting hungry" I said to myself. "Well time for breakfast, or is it lunch. Hell I don't know." I stood up and… "Whoop, light headed." I fell to the floor with a loud THUD! "Urh…"

Something came back to me at that point, my vision blurred up and I could see it again. I had a virus and was really sick, when I got up off the couch I got light headed and fell over. I faded back into reality.

This whole scenario had happened to me before, well except for the dragon, but I remembered everything I had learned about them now, and all the games I'd slayed them in. Including Skyrim…

"Holy crap, I can remember now. Ha-ha! I remember this!" I sat up and clapped my hands.

"Uh remember wh-"

"So Spike…*yawn* is it true that dragons have scales hard as rock?" I interrupted.

"Only the older ones but-"

"And are dragons really fireproof?"

"I'm not sure…I guess-"

"What about your wings huh? Where are those?"

"Uh…"

"Woah that was a mouthful, wow I'm tired." It was true I had that morning feeling now that I think about it. So after waking myself up and sharing the muffins with Spike for breakfast (I didn't like the idea of eating hay very much) Twilight came back. Good thing to because the spikes of pain were increasing, I was getting one every 10 seconds or so now. "Please tell me you have that OW! Potion…"

"Right here" she levitated a small bowl over to me, I grabbed it and skulled it down. Next second I found myself gagging and chocking because a cough just HAD to come as I was drinking. It went on for almost a full minute until I could talk again.

"Damm, that really went down the wrong way, but at least the headache is gone." I tried to brighten up the atmosphere a bit. "By the way Ditzy, did you make those muffins?"

"Yup! Did you like 'em?"

"So first you can sing and now you can cook? Anything you can't do?" She let out a little giggle, and then I turned to Twilight. "By the way, do you know any place where I can get some work?" I didn't want to tell anyone bit I felt bad just mooching off of Applejack.

"Well, there is sugar cube corner. But then again you would have to put up with Pinkie being…Well Pinkie."

I chuckled and said: "Nah I don't mind her, reminds me of someone actually…Wait a second… Ditzy! You should work at sugar cube corner with me."

"Err, no no. I've already got a job as a mail mare, I'll be fine."

"If you say so, but you really have a talent for baking muffins."

After waving Twilight and Spike goodbye and Ditzy going off to do…Well whatever she wanted, I headed to sugar cube corner. It was still awkward going through town, everyone was staring at me like I might go backshit crazy and murder someone, and others just looked at me and whispered to each other. I got to sugar cube corner and saw Pinkie sucking down a milkshake.

She spotted me, jumped up, and gasped. "MICHAEL! Why are you at sugar cube corner! Did you come to see me?" And what a surprise, she was bouncing around again.

"Well actually I…" I put my hand on her head to try and get her to stop bouncing. "I came to see if you could get me a job at the shop."

"That'd be super totally awesome! C'mon you can come meet Mr and Mrs Cake."

A smile crept onto my face "at least the days will be a lot more interesting now" I thought. I noticed she left her milkshake behind, I peered into the cup. "Smells like strawberry, these ponies are more advanced than I thought."

After Pinkie pushing Mr and Mrs Cake to give me a job, they caved in pretty quickly even without knowing if I could cook or not. Makes me wonder if Pinkie got her job that way, can she even cook?

"Okie dokey lokie! You start tomorrow; this is going to be SOO much fun!"

"I still can't believe you got me a job so easily…Huh…I don't know why but that reminds me, who's that Rainbow pony again?"

Pinkies words all glued together: "Oh you mean Rainbow Dash she loves to prank we should go see her, but she's usually napping at this time also she lives in cloudsdale so we can't get up there without a spell, we should go ask Twilight for that!"

As she dragged me by my shirt back to the library, an idea struck. "Say Pinkie, you said there was a forest or something around here right?"

"Mmhhmm" she muffled through my shirt.

"Let's go see one tonight, Fluttershy wouldn't have to know, since she sort of hates the idea of going into that place."

She spat out my shirt "That's a great idea, we could get Twilight and Applejack and Rainbow Dash to come, Rarity wouldn't like getting her hooves dirty though, and Fluttershy would be scared stiff if she went in there. Oh! And we could-"

"Woah woah woah! Slow down already, you're going like 90 miles an hour here. Let's just focus on getting that Rainbow one first." We both walked through the door to the library…again! It felt oh too familiar walking into there.

"Back so soon?" Twilight asked, she was reading a book with a beaker on the front cover.

"Well, not by choice" I shot a quick glare at Pinkie. "But we need a favour, I read about a cloud walking spell in one of the books you lent me." Sudden realisation had struck me, "Oh crap those are supposed to be back tomorrow." I muttered to myself. "Anyway me and Pinkie were wondering if we could go visit Rainbow something with it."

"Rainbow Dash? Why do you want to go and see her?"

"I was hoping to get some of you guy- uh…Ponies to go and see some wolves. That reminds me, do you want to come?"

Hmm, I don't know. We would have to get some supplies ready, and we would need to find the right time, also I would need time to prepare the spell."

"Twilight, it's just a simple trip into the woods, we aren't going to war here. Besides, I've studied wolves a bit back home in school. Wolves won't-"Mid-sentence the world de-materialised in a split second, leaving me in an empty void. "Wait…What! Oh god what the fuck is-"again the world materialised. But I wasn't back in Twilights library; I was standing in my classroom, right behind someone.

I stared at my hands, they were ghost like and transparent, mist was emanating from me. I could only see the outline of my hands; the rest was a transparent, faded white glow. I tried to scream, but my words only came out as a whisper, and as I stumbled back, I expect to fall back onto another student's desk, but ended up flat on the ground. I clambered up and stared at the person, they were blankly staring at the teacher, looking very bored. I stretched my hand out, shaking like an earthquake. I slowly lowered my hand onto the students shoulder, it went right through! I tried again, a few quick swipes, the student didn't even know I was there.

"What is this place?"I thought, seeing as how I couldn't speak. I looked up to the white board; I remembered the words it had scribbled on it: "The balance of nature."

"Yeah, yeah it's coming back to me now. This was when we had to do a project on an animal and how it affects other animals…Wait…Then that means…" Hastily I stepped forward to where my desk was, I hadn't noticed but I had appeared right behind it. I spun around and…There he was…Me! I looked the same, had the same doodles in my book, the same bored stare I give, it was like looking in a mirror, only a different stance. I passed my hand through his head, this time he seemed to notice, he cocked his head up and spun around. Curious if he could see me or not I waved to him. With a shrug he turned back around, "we I obviously can't see me…Wow that sounded weird." I tried passing my hand through again, he turned around again, this time reaching out a bit. His hand went through me as well; as he pulled back he stared at it for a few seconds, and then rubbed both his hands together.

"Hmm" I thought. This time I stepped completely through him I turned back to watch this give off a little shiver. He was obviously cold when I had walked through him, he looked around curiously, and it seemed like something I would do. He looked to the left, right, up, then straight at me. I heard him let out a 'hmm' before looking back at the board.

After that I walked around the class for a bit, it was all coming back now. But why couldn't I remember this after I came to that pony world? And if I can go right through people, how am I standing on solid ground? But if I was cold when I walked through me, then am I a ghost? Eventually I got annoyed at my teacher going on and on, so I stepped through the door and outside. As soon as my foot touched the ground, I faded through that as well. I was falling in an endless void, my voice was becoming stronger as I struggled to yell, I came out of the void and I was falling from the sky. I saw buildings underneath me, it was ponyville! I was going to land on top of Twilights library. "H-hey, I'm back! But I'm fucking FALLING!" I yelled out to anyone. Before I knew it I struck the roof of Twilights library, but I didn't hear a splat, or felt my bones crushing, I saw was my body just lying on the floor, unconscious. That was the last thing I saw before crashing back into myself with a bright blinding light.

I shot up and looked down at myself, back to normal, colour and everything! I looked around; I was back in Twilight's library.

I started to ramble on: "Oh god did that really just happen? Holy crap what was that? Why was I back there?"

"Michael, clam down. You fainted, what happened?"

"I don't know, I was here talking to you, then reality sort of, caved in on itself." I tried doing gestures with my hands; they didn't turn out very well. "After that I was back at school, but I was a…Ghost I guess…I was white and misty, barely visible. Weird thing was Twilight…I saw myself there, before any of this had happened. I think it was a week or two ago…"

"That's strange, I've never heard of that kind of magic before. I'll write to Princess Celestia about this, but I'm afraid that we might have to delay that wolf outing for a while."

"Wait…Princess! Twilight we've taken a big enough risk letting everyone in town I'm here. Why the hell are you going to tell the king and queen?"

"Michael, you took that risk. And I have to write to Princess Celestia for my studies on friendship, and I think this would make an excellent letter."

"What are you so scared about?" Asked Pinkie.

"Pinkie, I'm a human teen in a hollowed out tree in the middle of a town full of flying, magical, farming ponies. Reasoning with a royal purple unicorn, and explaining all of this to a hyperactive pink pony all while trying to not go back-shit insane, and hoping this is all just one giant dream…And now… Twilight wants to tell the two most powerful ponies in the country that I'm here. The light doesn't get any greener Pinkie."

"Michael, we don't a king or queen, just two princesses." Said Twilight.

"Okay then….I'd go into a detailed argument but it gets boring and it just stops the plot of the story."

"The what?"

"Foreshadowing,so. About this letter thing, you really think it's a good idea?"

"Why wouldn't it be, Celestia could try and find out how you got here, about these visions you're having, and even help you get home." The word 'home' struck me with a bit of sadness. Would I really have to leave so soon?

"Ehh, I still don't know. Can't really trust many people in this world."

Pinkie jumped in front of me and said: "you can trust us can't you?" I wasn't one for emotional talks, especially with ponies. I tried to stall while I thought of a way out of there.

"Oh wait, that reminds me I was supposed to do something…" I lightly hit myself on the forehead, trying to make up an excuse. "Uhh what was it…Um…Oh yeah; I have to get those books back to Twilight! I'll go get 'em." I dashed out the door, trying to lose sight of the library in the buildings. I got outside the town and leaned against a tree, "whew that was awkward." I started walking back to the farm, a rustling in the trees was following me, at first a shook it off thinking it was wind, but the air was still. Listening for it, I made my way up the path, going slower than usual. "Yeah, something's definitely following me" I thought.

I turned around and called out: "Look, I know you're there so just come out already." There was no answer, "okay then…" I walked up to where the rustling had come from last and gave the tree a swift kick.

"Wooaah" said a pony falling from the tree.

"You again!" The pony was black with a white mane; up close it was obviously male.

"Heh I like you kid, you managed to find me, and you have a keen sense. We can talk more later." He attempted to take off but I grabbed his hoof and pulled him down.

"How about we talk now, why the hell are you stalking me?"

"Stalking is such an ugly word, I prefer investigating. But I will tell you more about myself later, I promise." He twisted my hand around and forced me to let go before flying off into the tree's again.

"Stupid bush ponies." I tried to listen for him again as I made my way back to the farm, "guess he's gone for good this time" I thought. Inside the farm big Macintosh was drinking some apple sider. I didn't want to be around when he got drunk off that stuff, who knows what could happen. When I got up to the guest room, I realised how many books I'd taken out. I figured I might as well pick up some of my stuff while I was there, so I stuffed my IPod in my pocket.

"Why has this world got to be full of magic, and ponies! Actually…Might not be such a bad thing." I muttered to myself. "Wait a second, Twilight's still at the library…So that means…Aww crap!" I scooped up the books and dashed out of the barn.

"Taste the rainbow!" Big Macintosh called out, he sounded half drunk at the time.

Running along the path I spotted Applejack.

"Howdy Mich-"

"Sorry, off to save the human race!" I interrupted. When I got back to Twilights library, forgetting that their doors didn't have handles, I fell through it trying to lean against it. Looking up I could see a Dragon burning a scroll and the ashes flying away. Scrambling up from the books I said to myself: "Oh no no no! Why the hell did you send that to her?"

"The princess had to know, and- wait, how did you know that was going to the princess?" Reasoned Twilight.

"You were talking about it two minutes ago, do the maths."

Spike closed the window, turned and said: "Why are you so afraid of letting Celestia know?"

"Well call me paranoid but I don't think letting the government know that a human is here would be the brightest idea. If you've ever watched one of those movies about the government hunting down an alien and doing tests on him, you'd get it."

"Him?"

"Uh…I mean it…Shit, well if there's no way to stop it…Gaah, I don't know. But if we can't go see the wolves, then could we at least try the spell? I've always wanted to walk on clouds."

Pinkie hopped into the room and cheerfully said: "You should try it Michael, its super fun! Can we Twilight, please?"

"Well…I have got some business with Rainbow Dash on my checklist…So I guess we can go visit." Said Twilight, she was walking towards the door "knowing her she will probably be napping on a cloud somewhere."

When we got out of the library I asked: "So um, quick question. How are we going to get up to the clouds huh? More magic?"

Twilight responded: "Well actually we were going to take the-"

"We're going to take the hot air balloon!" Interrupted Pinkie and she skipped around to the back of the library.

"Wait, you have a-" turning the corner I saw a fenced off area, with a deflated hot air balloon tethered to the ground. "Daaaaaaaaamm! When you said royal you really meant royal!" Twilight had already gotten the balloon ready by the time I'd said that.

Up in the air Twilight asked Pinkie and I: "Are you ready?"

"I've got nothing better to do on a hot air balloon, sure."

Twilight's horn glowed as she shut her eyes and concentrated. I couldn't help trying to stare into the magical light, but it was like looking into the sun. An explosion of light, I looked at my arms and I could see a faint purple aura fading away. A lone piece of cloud came towards the balloon, I reached out and grabbed it, and it felt like cotton candy in your hand. Just then I had a brilliant idea, I let it go and struck my fist down against it, the cloud was still floating and in one piece but it felt like I hadn't hit anything.

"That should do it, I'll just get the balloon down so-"

"Heh, I've always wanted to say this" I muttered to myself. I opened the basket and spotted Rainbow Dash on a large cloud below. "Allons-y!" I yelled as I jumped out from the basket, landing face first in cloud. It was like landing into a pile of fleece, soft enough not to get hurt, but stable enough not to let you fall.

As I sat up I couldn't help but laugh, it was so much fun just jumping into clouds.

"Whee!" Pinkie yelled as she crashed down next to me. We didn't know why we were laughing, but we couldn't stop, didn't want to stop.

"Huh, wha?" Startled a sleepy Rainbow Dash nearby.

"Wait were you napping?" I asked her "shouldn't you be at your job or something?"

"Wait, you're standing on cloud." She poked her head below the cloud, "Y-you're flying!"

"Hey rainbow!" Called out Twilight as she descended."

"Oh, Twilight did a spell on you guys" Rainbow flew up to meet Twilight. As she did I quickly sat down, took off my shoes, stuffed some cloud in them and slipped back into them.

"Watch this." I whispered to Pinkie, "What didn't I tell you that humans can fly?"

"You can?" Asked Twilight, "didn't you need the spell to get up here?"

"Course he can't Twi" said Rainbow flying over to me. "He hasn't even got wings; yep you can't fool a Pegasus."

"Of course I can, I just didn't tell you because you already have Pegasi so I didn't think you'd be interested. And if I can't fly, then how can I do this?" I lifted my foot up and pressed against the cloud in my shoes, walking up through the air like stairs around Rainbow.

"I should really tell you guy's erm…Ponies, things more often, who says you need wings to fly? Wings are overrated." The two ponies just stared, mouths hanging open. "Yep, that's humans for ya, always changing. That's why I didn't fly before, couldn't until now. Who knows, maybe tomorrow I'll wake up and I can use magic, we can't tell what's coming next."

I walked back down to Pinkie who was giggling at me. "So can you really do all that stuff?" Asked Pinkie.

"Nah, I just like to mess with people sometimes" I had my head so far up in the clouds I'd forgotten about Twilights letter. "…Wait a second…Hey Rainbow Dash, is there a town in the clouds, I mean you can shape them so you could build with 'em."

Rainbow shook her head and flew down. "Well there's cloudsdale, but it's getting late" she said pointing to the sunset over the hills. "But I shouldn't show you now, it can get really chilly up here and that storm is tonight and-"

"Alright, alright. We're going already. Back into the balloon I guess."

We waved goodbye to Rainbow Dash and Twilight asked: "So you can really fly Michael? But how?"

"Heh, heh. It's all wibbly wobbly science stuff." When we had landed I started heading back to the farm, Pinkie caught up with me though and started going on about how Twilight would have been all over that cloud walking trick if she hadn't given up on her 'Pinkie sense'. I had no idea what that meant but I was in a world on ponies; nothing really made any sense any more, I just went along with it all.

Back at the farm I took the cloud out of my shoes and just let them float back up. When I went into the barn and into my room, I also noticed that I still had my IPod in my pocket "I really need to get you fixed" I thought. "Ah well, maybe tomorrow then." Climbing into bed I put it back on the bedside table with everything else. I fell asleep quickly to the hum of Rainbow's storm overhead.

In my dream I was back in that ghostly form, only I was outside this time, still in the outskirts of that pony town. I walked along, wondering where I was now. I saw something resting on a stump nearby, talking to itself, as I got closer I could recognise it. "No…Th-that's not possible!" I screamed at myself in my head. It was another human, but it wasn't me this time he was different. He was taller, older looking, different clothes, different hair colour, different face, different everything! After a few minutes of hitting my head trying to understand…Well, anything at this point I heard him talk again.

I looked up to see a bunny approach him; I could slightly hear him say:

"Hey little guy, it's okay I'm not going to hurt you." At least that's what it sounded like, I wasn't sure. "My name's-"I couldn't hear the other part of that, I wished I could have. Then the bunny took a leap and bit him, watching him hop around cursing at the bunny was kind of funny, he hopped around for around a minute. "-asshole" That's all I could make out before reality sort of collapsed again.

I woke up wondering what the hell had happened, was there really someone else here? Or is it just me trying to deal with being the only human? Hell I don't know, but if he really is here, I'll find out soon enough.

I went downstairs to have some breakfast; luckily Applejack had some apple-pie left over, along with a glass of apple juice.

"Ya'll might want to get a sweater before ya go out there."

"Why? It's just the same as any other day right Apple-"I swung the door open, and I was staring into a snow wonderland.

Ya ever had that feeling that you have to get something done, but then again you just cant be bothered? Yeah...

PS: This had to be filler to tie in the rest of the plots I plan on doing, plots thast actually last through the story instead of every day ones!
