When I got to my clothes I found they were no longer black and were normal again. I wasted no time putting on my clothes and running down stairs. I found twilight handing a scroll to some little pule and green lizard thing. It blew fire on the scroll and then walked out through the front door. Twilight was just turning around when I came up to her and talked to her in a calm voice.

"Twilight did you by any chance find a black orb?" I asked

"Yes I did why do you ask?" she responded

"Well it is mine and I would kind of like it back."

"Sorry I can not do that."

I narrowed my eyes. "What do you mean you can't do that?"

"Sorry but it was giving off high levels off dark magic to give it away would be highly irresponsible of me it could easily corrupted any pony using it."

"Twilight I went through a lot to get that orb and I would really appreciate it if you gave it back I really don't want us to end up fighting over it seeing as we just met and all and besides I'm not a pony."

"Sorry can't do that and besides you said it yourself if I had to I could put you down if need be."

By this point I was losing my patience I was not going to be denied something I was nearly killed over. "I said probably and I would like for it not come to that anyways I would like for us to be friends so I will say this on last time . !" I said that last part in the most menacing voice I could utter a voice that have brought mighty rulers to their knees but it did nothing to her she took it as if nothing.

"This mare has nerves of steel... I like it."

I was actually bluffing I couldn't attack anyone over a possession even if I nearly died for it.

"Oh calm down you'll get it back when I'm certain it will not cause any harm to any pony." She said walking away with a smug smile,

I dropped my head in defeat. Not many have noticed when I bluffed and she did it without a problem. One of two things could be happening. One she could be incredibly smart or a mind reader. I looked back at her and she had a three books levitating in front of her seemingly reading them at the same time.

"I guess she a nerd then well that sucks I always wanted to meet another mind reader."

I looked around the room and noticed I was surrounded by books.

"must be a library."

"Hey twilight could you tell me about your world well at least the basics so I can you know live here and all."

She looked up from her books with a gleam in her eye.

"I feel I have made a grave mistake"

---

Three hours. She lecture me for straight hours. Well I guess it was worth it I found out there are four races of pony alicorn, pegasus, earth pony, and unicorn. Also that the two rulers apparently raise the sun and the moon. I had no comment on that just let her keep on talking. Anyways now I walking with her to some unknown location at night with no I no idea why.

"Where are we going?" I asked

"To the sugar cube corner." she told me

"And what is that exactly."

"A bakery."

"Cool so why do I have to go and what type of bakery is open at night?" I asked

"You're going because I want you to and to answer your second question this one does."

I rolled my eyes. " Oh yeah what was that lizard thing I saw earlier?"

She seemed to get upset by that question. "That was spike my number 1 assistant and he is not a lizard he is a baby dragon." she said in an annoyed tone.

"Well sor-" I stopped talking as I looked at the building in front of me. "OK what the fuck." In front of me stood a giant ginger bread house. Not even fucking around the thing looked completely edible I probably would have tried to eat it if it weren't common sense. Anyways twilight motioned for me to follow her which didn't make any sense since there were no lights coming from the windows but I still followed.

Just as suspected when we walked in there were no lights well at lest for the first two second there weren't. The light turned on to reveal a room full of ponies.

"SUUUUURPRISE" They all yelled then gained a shocked look on their face as they realized I wasn't a pony. They just stared at me either to scared to scream or just in shock. Me on the other hand was about to walk back out. Which I would have had not the pink earth pony from come running up to me with a large smile.

She jumped on me nearly causing me to fall but I caught myself before I fell and she somehow clung to me. "HII'MPINKIEPIETHISISYOURTHANKYOU FORSAVINGUSFROMAMANTICORESUR PRISEPARTYWEREYOUSURPRISEDHU HHUHHUH!?" She said so quickly I just barely could understand what she asked.

She was all up in my face so I had to lean back a bit before I answered her. "Yes." I said plainly which seemed to be enough for her cause she jumped off of me with and disappeared into the crowd. To tell the truth I wasn't really surprised but I wanted to be polite.

The crowd of ponies quickly surrounded me and pelted me with questions of all kinds like "What are you?", "How did you beat a manticore?", and "What's your name?". I tried answering questions but I couldn't get one word in without getting bombarded with more. Eventually I got annoyed so I took A deep breath and said."

"SHUT UP." I was immediately responded to by complete silence. "I can see you all have question but can I sit down first I'll answer any question you have unless I do not want to answer them." I didn't wait for any type of agreement from the crowd. I walked over to a booth and sat down twilight sat next to me. The ponies crowded around the booth.

I cleared my throat. "OK who's first." Everyone raised their hooves. I was surprised they didn't start yelling again. Then again they weren't very scared of me when they saw me. I looked through the crowd and pointed to a blue mare with a pink mane. "Ask away."

"Yes well my name is lotus and I'd like to what happened to your wings."

"Ah yes well to answer that question I'll say never get hit with black lightning never ends well." She seemed confused by that I didn't care. Next I pointed to a magenta earth pony mare with pink and light pink striped mane. "You

"Well uh my name is cheerilee and I want to know what are you exactly." She asked.

"Simple enough I am a human African american to be precise."

She seemed to be taken by surprise by my answer "But you have wings."

"I KNEW IT!" I heard someone yell from the back of the crowd. Everyone turned to face a mint green unicorn mare with a white and mint green mane and tail. She looked smiled sheepishly. "Uh sorry."

"Yeah so anyways I'm a... special type of human."

"What that's suppose to mean."

"So next question." I said not wanting to answer that certain question mainly because I was ashamed of it the answer. the ponies raised their hooves. This time I pointed to a little orange pegasus filly with a purple mane and tail.

Thankfully she didn't press on the what am I matter "How did you beat the manticore." She said excitedly

"Oh that it was simple really all I had to do was kick it in the chin hard enough to put it on it hind legs long enough to jab a few pressure point paralyzing it for a few hours it should be fine now."

Everyone looked at me with jaws on the floor.

"What?" I shrugged "Can I get a drink?" I asked

A second later the pink pony pinkie pie was in front me with a mug sitting on her head.

I raised an eyebrow. "Cool." I took a sip. "MMMM what is this?"

"Hard cider." She responded

"Cool." I put it down deciding to drink the rest later. "Hey uh if this is suppose to be a party where the music."

A look of realization found its way on her face. she turned around and yelled. "VINYL!" A second later music came on on and the ponies stopped crowding around me and went on to dance and what not. Except for the mint green pony who came trotting up to me along with a tan earth pony mare with a pink and purple fluffy mane and tail.

"Hello I'm Lyra and this is my marefriend bonbon are you really a human with wings?"she asked

"Yep."

"Told humans exist bonbon."

The mare next to her spoke back and a slightly annoyed tone. "Yes I can see that I said I was sorry didn't I."

"Yes because i was right." The mint green mare gloated. The other rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Oh can you tell me about your species like what you eat, wear, and do and stuff."

"Yeah sure why not but not right now later you can stop by the library since that where I'm staying now."

"Oh OK then bye." with that her and her marefriend walked off disappearing into the crowd.

I turned to twilight who was looking at me funny. "What?"

"How can you talk about beating a manticore like it's no big deal!?" She said in amazement

I shrugged "I've done a lot of things in my life that manticore was like one of the less dangerous things I've been up against but between you and me it a bit more strength then it should have taken to kick that thing so high up."

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'VE FOUGHT MORE DANGEROUS THINGS!" She yelled good thing the music was blaring or all eyes would be on us.

"I mean what I say have you ever met a werewolf?" I asked

"Uh no wait you have."

"Yeah they are incredibly mean well most of them but that's a story a story for another day."

She looked like was going to respond but was interrupted by a the blue pegasus from earlier landed next to her.

"Twilight you'll never guess what just happened." She said

"Uh what happened?"She asked

"I saw spike- oh hey." She said when she noticed me. " Thanks for saving us my names rainbow dash fastest flier in eqeustria whats your name."

I was going to answer but twilight interrupted me.

"Rainbow what about spike?"

"Oh yeah." She said tapping her chin with her hoof in contemplation. "I forget so anyways how fast can you go with does wings?"She asked completely unaware or just ignoring the fact that twilight looked like she was going to explode.

I was still going to answer though but I was interrupted agian. This time by the orange earth pony.

"Twilight yall won't believe what I jus saw spike- Hey ain't that feller who saved us." She said in a southern accent.

Twilight opened her mouth to say something but I interrupted her before she could utter a word.

"Yes I am my name is Desmond who are you." I asked extending a hand to shake which she did roughly.

"My name is applejack owner of sweet apple acres nice to meet ya." She said still shaking my hand.

"APPLEJACK!" Twilight yelled

"Yes sugarcube."

"What did you spike doing."

"Oh uh I forget."

Twilight eye twitched then she dropped her head to the table.

"Well that was interesting." I said picking up my mug and taking a sip the hard cider. "Applejack you would happen to need any workers down at sweet apple acres would you?"

She looked surprised by the question but still answered "As a matter a fact we do why ya askin'." I would like to point out she was now sitting across from me in the booth.

"Well in my few hours here I've come to the realization that I am going to need a job to support myself if I am going to be living here."

"Well alright then we'll talk bout it later for now let's enjoy this little shindig."

I nodded and picked up my mug and drank the rest of the cider. "whew that's good stuff."

"Twilight darling you will not believe what I just saw spike- Oh my aren't you that creature that saved us from that dreadful manticore oh and my name is rarity." said the white unicorn mare from earlier

Twilight head shot up when she heard spike. "Wait, wait what about spike." she asked desperately.

"Huh oh yes what was it oh my I've seen to forgotten." She smiled sheepishly.

Twilight had enough. "I've had enough I'll go see what going on with him myself." She got of her seat and left.

"What's got her so mad." Said rainbow.

I shrugged

The night went on pretty well. Rarity asked about earths fashion to which I told her I didn't really keep track which seemed to upset her a bit. Rainbow asked for a race after my wings healed to which I agreed and twilight eventually came back after finding out from pinkie that spike went home and not finding out what he was doing. Now I was back at the library with twilight getting ready to go to sleep.

"Twilight when do you think you'll be finished with my orb."

"It should be done by saturday."

"What's today Wednesday."

"OK then goodnight I guess I'm sleeping in the room I woke up in."

"Yes you will goodnight."

with that I found the room and went straight to sleep. That night I didn't have good dreams.
