I sat there looking at all the trees around me. There was no site of civilization anywhere, it was just forest as far as the eye can see. I started to think of what could lead up to this. I just couldn't there's no possible explanation to this, but then again I did just fight a manticor and lived so, what is possible. And plus I died there should be no way I'm alive right now, and even by the slightest chance I did survive how did I end up in a forest. Not only a forest but a forest filled to the brink with mythical creatures. This is going to be a long day. Suddenly sounds of snapping branches crackling leaves and hooves came from behind me.

"geez twilight why are we chasing that thing" I recognized the voice it was one of the ponies from earlier.

"the princess thinks its the only thing that can defeat whatever is causing the darkness." wait hang on. I'm some chosen hero from another world to save this one from sure destruction. You've got to be kidding me, and apparently I'm chosen by royalty too.

"wait so were pinning all our hopes on this one unknown creature" said the white one.

"rarity's right sugar cube . That sounds a little fishy t' me" said the orange one

"I know,i know but if we don't all of equestria could be destroyed." said the purple unicorn who I've now placed as twilight. " come on girls we don't have all day the princess is waiting for us. Let's go." by now the wound on my arm was seeping to much blood. I knew that if I stayed here I would die of blood loss.

I should probably go with them if I want to survive. And if I go with them I bet I could get answers to why I'm here. If I knew that I could probably find a way home if it even exists. I slowly and quietly crawled out of the bush, trying not to hurt myself.

I sat back down at the tree and let out a cough to get there attention. Apparently I only got the yellow ones attention. She let out an eep and flew into the trees.

" what is it now darling" said the white unicorn said turning to were the yellow one should have been. She wound up seeing me in the process. She let out a gasp and very dramatically fell into a plushy throw pillow that appeared out of nowhere.

All the action caught the attention of the others. They all turned and looked at me. Their eyes lingered on me, they all just stared, except the blue one.

"there he is get him" said the blue one flying at me. I didn't have time to tell her to stop so I did the only thing I could do. Dodge. I rolled out of the way just before she could hit me,causing her to go head first into the tree. I looked down at the unconscious mare, then up to her friends, then back to her, then back to her friends.

At that moment I said the stupidest four words I could have said at that moment " I didn't do it" all the ponies let out a gasp hearing me talk. They ran over to see if their friend was alright. The purple unicorn aka twilight walked... cantered... trotted over to see if I was ok.

"your zack right?" she asked

"y-yeah why?" I replied questioningly

"princess celestia co ruler of equestria would like to meat with you to speak of matter of utmost importance"

"ok? Sure but one quick question did you have to say it like that?" she looked at me confused. "never mind. But um I don't think ill be able to make it if I keep bleeding like this."

"r-right. Fluttershy do you think you can do anything about this wound"

"sure twilight" she said quietly

She slowly walked over to me and started to examine my wound. She looked at it for a minute before jumping back in surprise.

"whats wrong?' I asked as I looked over to my wound. To my surprise the wound was slowly patching itself up right in front of my eyes. twilight started to scan me with her horn.
"this is amazing it's like nothing I've ever seen before. I've never heard of magic like this either. whats going on?" she said directing the question to me

"i dint know this is new to me to. In case you haven't recognized I'm not exactly from around here." twilight gave me an unamused look causing me to shut up.

"hmm, I'd like to study this more if your willing to help. But first we must get to the princess do you think you can make the trip now?" asked twilight.

I rolled my shoulders checking the wound. "yeah I think ill be fine now I'm in no pain. The only problem I see now is how were getting to the princess"

"I don't see a problem were going to walk to the library and talk to her. Why would there be a problem?"

"How am I going to walk through the town without causing a mad panic. I'm an unknown five foot tall creature."

"trust me you'll be fine."

"what if they all panic and run, or what if they all attack to try and stop me, or what if they're all afraid of me like fluttershy?"

"Trust me I'm sure no one will be that afraid, I mean we were just in the center of a chaotic chimera trying to take over all of equestria"

"wait what happened?"

"a while ago a chimera going by the name discord broke free of his prison. He wanted to spread chaos all throughout equestria and take back the throne."

"so what happened to him?"

"we eventually were able to use the elements of harmony to turn him back to stone."twilight said matter of factly.

Well I'm fucked if I ever piss them off "remind me never to get you guys mad"

"alright I will. are we ready to go now?"

with that we were off. The trip through the forest wasn't very eventful I wound up learning and memorizing their names. Rainbow dash keeped giving me looks. I could tell she didn't trust me just yet and I didn't really care.

Around 20 minuets of walking we exited the forest. Not to far away was a small village. It looked sort of medieval. Except for the few strange and overly colorful building here and there. The village was a good 10 minute walk from our location. I spent all of that time hardening myself for whatever may come my way.

When we entered the village everything stopped. The only sounds were my feet and the six set of hooves around me hitting the dirt. I felt every pair of eyes fix on me, and if looks could kill lets just say I'd be long dead.

The library where we were meeting the princess was on the other side of the town. We were casually walking for around a minute before we realized that the town was slowly starting to fallow us.

"does anyone else feel like running to the library instead of being fallowed?"

"oo sounds like fun" said pinkie before hopping away. I along with everyone else shortly fallowed her lead. We all ran towards the library twilight opened the door with our magic and we all filed in.

pinkie had abruptly stopped in the middle of the doorway. me not paying attention tripped over her and fell. I rolled into something unknown. A little oh and a crash of a cup hitting the ground was heard.

Beneath me was another pony. She was a bright white with a tint of pink. Her pastel colored main flowed in a non existing wind. Her magenta eyes were captivating they displayed wisdom through them, and they were more beautiful than anything else I've ever seen. She had both wings and a horn that complemented her horse figure. She had an aura of leadership and love around here that could affect anything.

I was on top of her for an uncertain time frame. It took me a while to fully compute what was happening. When I finally did realize what was happening I immediately jumped off.

"oh my god I'm so sorry I don't know what happened. I think I tripped on something, please forgive me."

"it's ok strange one. I'm sure you did not do it on purpose." the alicorn replied

"thank you for your forgiveness. I am Zack Martin it's a pleasure to meet you."

"hello zack I am glad to finally meet you. I am princess celestia."
