Note from the author: well thankfully dragon outcast allowed me to use the OC that he sent me for another story as the random mare.

"Hi," Dylan responded.

The mare had a black colored coat almost as dark as midnight. The mane and tail was a shade of crimson, a bit unkept. Her eyes shined blue.

"Why are you sitting out here alone?" The mare asked.

"I have nothing better to do, so I just figured I'd sit here."

"Well I know a place we can go, if you would like to follow me."

"Well…"

"Please?" The mare grinned.

"Alright…" Dylan sighed standing up.

The mare started walking away and Dylan shortly followed. After a few minutes the mare asked "So what's your name?"

"Cuber," Dylan responded.

"Nice to meet you Cuber, I'm Cameron," she replied.

"So Cameron, where are we going?"

"Just follow me and you'll find out."

After a few minutes they arrive at a field of flowers just past the crust of the Everfree Forest.

"This is what you wanted to show me?" Dylan said as the smell of the flowers hit his nose.

"Mhmm," Cameron responded.

"Well, honestly, I know this looks, feels, and even smells real, I know this is a video game, it's nothing like reality…"

"What is reality Cuber?" Cameron said walking next to Dylan, "Reality is what you make it, I'm sure you know this, if it smells real, looks real, feels real, who's to say it isn't?" Cameron said walking in front of Dylan looking at him in the eyes.

Dylan reached down and plucked a flower and held it up, "Well I was real interested in programming, and when I see this, I can tell it's just pixels in a computer game," Dylan let the flower go and it flew away in the wind.

Dylan looked back up to see Cameron inches away from his face, "If you believe hard enough, anything could be real, even the softness of touches… the warmth of others…" Cameron leaned in and kissed Dylan.

The action caught Dylan by surprised. Cameron pulled away blushing, she smiled showing her teeth, Dylan noticed something about them.

"I can't help but notice that you have fangs for teeth," Dylan pointed out.

Cameron's blush reddened, "It's uh, it's nothing."

"No it's not nothing," Dylan started, making Cameron frown, "They're beautiful," he said kissing Cameron. She smiled and kissed back.

When they pulled away they were both slightly blushing, "So, uh, I gotta go back to my friends, see ya later?" Cameron asked, adding Dylan as a friend.

A screen popped-up in front of Dylan "Cameron wants to be your friend," with an 'Accept' and 'Decline' button. Dylan clicked Accept and said "Yeah, see ya later."

Cameron waved goodbye and ran back to her friends. A message popped-up in front of Dylan "Now that you have a friend, you can open up your friends list, go ahead and open it now."

"Open my friends list," Dylan said, right after he said it the friends list opened showing a box with only one name on it, 'Cameron'. Another message showed "Now that you have friends you can send them messages and see when they were last online."

Dylan clicked on Cameron's name and it showed her profile, but instead of showing just 'Add friend' or 'Block' it showed 'Send a message', 'Remove friend', and it showed a dialog that read 'Last online: Now'.

"Close my friends list," Dylan said, and the friends list disappeared. Dylan walked over to Sugarcube Corner.

When he arrived he walked up to the counter and met a NPC, Pinkie Pie, "Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie, what can I get for you?"

"Just a cupcake would be fine."

"One cupcake coming up! That will be 3 bits!"

A screen popped-up "A cupcake is 3 bits, would you like to pay now? Current bit amount: 2000."

"Of course I want to pay now," Dylan said. The screen disappeared and Pinkie Pie went off to bake a cupcake. After a minute she came back and hoofed Dylan the cupcake. He took it and walked over to a random seat.

After sitting down he looked around the room and saw a lot of other ponies eating, Dylan took a bite of the cupcake and a thought came to his head "How they make these games so realistic I don't know."

Seconds later a stallion walked up to him and said "Hey, can I sit here, there are no other tables."

Dylan shrugged, "Sure."

The stallion sat down across from Dylan, he had a dark blue coat, black mane and tail, his mane looked like Roxas from Kingdom Hearts and his tail looked like Rainbow Dash's. He was a male Pegasus and his eyes were dark red. "I'm Shadow Moon," he said, "You?"

"Cuber," Dylan responded.

Trying to stir up some conversation Shadow said, "You wanna know something I don't get?"

Dylan took another bite of his cupcake, "What?"

"Why are we eating these cupcakes, when we can just eat actual food outside the game?"

"Well, I actually never thought of that…" Dylan thought for a moment "Probably to save money," they both had a chuckle.

They sat there for a few minutes eating their cupcakes and chatting. "Anyway, I gotta go," Shadow said.

"See ya," Dylan responded as Shadow walked away. A friend request popped-up from Shadow and Dylan accepted it.

Dylan got up and left Sugarcube Corner and started wandering around. He reached a lot of places, Rarity's Carousel Boutique, Sweet Apple Acres, The Golden Oaks Library, and even the train station.

After walking all the time it got late, Dylan brought up the menu and clicked the Log Out button. Another menu popped-up saying "Are you sure you want to log-out?" There was two spaces, one had 'No' and the other was blank.

Only instinct told Dylan the blank was 'Yes' and he tried to click it, but nothing happened. After a while of trying he couldn't get a response from it.

"Open up my friends list," Dylan said, he clicked on 'Send a message' and wrote on a virtual keyboard, "Hey, have you tried logging out yet?" and sent it to both his friends.

After a few minutes he got responses, Cameron saying, "I don't see anything to click to log-out."

Shadow said, "I can't, there is no 'Yes' button."

Dylan and everypony else was stuck in Equestria.

Note from the author: I JUST HAD TO! 'Stuck in Equestria' I just had to do it. So, so far in this story we have to characters already dating. Also Shadow Moon has come in to play. I could still use some more OCs since we're going to need quite a few to make some groups for later chapters.
