My name is Daniel Fischer. I am 20 years old, and my life was pretty good. My life schedule was just go to work as a programmer, come home, play video games, watch television, and sleep. Occasionally I would go out with some friends, but every other day I stuck to my normal schedule. My friends and family would say My life is boring and I should do more with it, but I wasn't complaining.

I didn't mind the direction my life was going, and I wasn't doing anything to change it. But so many people worried about me and I just ignored their warning.

One thing I recently discovered was something I never thought would change my life. It was a tv show on The Hub called My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I wasn't a brony yet, but I liked what I had seen so far, which only included the first few episodes. When I say it changed my life, I meant it literally. Little did I know, my life was going to get a lot more interesting.

One night, I was sitting down at my computer playing some video games when it happened. I was just about to take a break, when I was interrupted by a huge flash of light, blinding me. I closed my eyes, but that didn't help at all. This went on for several minutes before I could tell I wasn't in my computer chair anymore, or even my house. I felt my entire body being transported.

My arms and legs were shorter, and I couldn't feel my hands or feet anymore. I felt a horn growing out of my forehead, and a tail growing out of my flank. My face also grew longer, about the length. of a horse. This whole time I had my eyes closed to keep out the blinding light, so I couldn't see this transformation. My body felt like it stopped transforming after a few minutes.

With this transformation over I started to hear a voice talking. It wasn't talking to me, but to someone else. "Fluttershy, you weren't supposed to use your element yet! You need to wait!" The voice scolded.

"Ha! You may have five of the elements, but you need all six to do anything." Another voice said. The blinding light started to fade away and after a few seconds, I knew for sure that I wasn't in my house anymore.

I was in a big dark room. The room looked very ancient and mostly abandoned. pillars covered in moss lined the sides of the room, and the moss was spread all over the floor and walls as well. Moon light shone through the windows and through the dim light I could see something that really surprised me. I saw six multi-colored ponies and two larger ponies.

I identified the two large ponies as Nightmare Moon and Princess Celestia. The six smaller ponies were Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie. It was Twilight who was scolding Fluttershy about using her element too early. The room I was in was the room where main six discover the elements of harmony. Nopony noticed me in the room while I observed and Identified everything, since I was behind Nightmare Moon. The main six and Celestia were standing tall and resolute against Nightmare Moon, except for Fluttershy, who was cowering behind Twilight.

My first reaction would have been to scream, but I was too scared and shocked to do anything. I just watched the scene play out, although it was slightly different than what I saw in the show.

When I looked down I saw that I had not only been taken to Equestria, but I had transformed into a unicorn pony. My fur was dark blue and my mane and tail were a dark yellow. My mane only went down to my neck, and my tail only went down to my knees. Looking behind me, I also noticed that I didn't have a cuitie mark I wasn't very fit as a human, and that was reflected in my appearance, as I was a bit fatter than the average stallion.

It was after making this discovery that I actually screamed, causing everypony to jump and turn towards me. I tightly closed my eyes and laid down when I felt something coming out of my horn. It was electricity, flowing through my horn, and flying out of my horn straight towards Nightmare Moon, zapping her.

Nightmare Moon didn't get a chance to turn around and see me zap her, so she was more surprised than anypony. She just stood there, unable to move from both surprise, and mild paralysis.

Twilight gasped, "Magic!" said Twilight said excitedly. "The sixth element is magic!" Her horn started to glow, and the element stone in front of her opened, revealing a tiara with a six-sided star which floated down onto Twilight's head. Her eyes started to glow white, along with the other five. A rainbow formed around the six and shot towards Nightmare Moon.

Her eyes widened in fear. "No! It can't be!" That was all she said before the rainbow beam hit her. The blast created a bright flash of white light which lit up the entire room. The light reminded me of when I was teleported here. The main six's eyes stopped glowing and they were back to normal. Princess Luna laid on the ground.

Princess Celestia approached her cautiously. "Luna," she said, "is that you?"

Princess Luna immediately stood up and hugged her. "Celestia, I've missed you so much," she cried. Tears were streaming down her face as she said this.

"I've missed you too," Celestia replied. She was crying now too. Pinkie Pie sniffled, and soon she was crying her eyes out. "Now that you're a princess again, Luna, there's something else we need to figure out." she said, wiping tears from her face. She looked at me. "Who are you? And why are you here?"

I panic more than I ever have before. "Please don't hurt me!" I started cowering, not knowing what she was going to do about me. Some electricity was still radiating from my horn. "My name is Daniel, and I don't know why I'm here. I was sitting at home when I was transformed into a pony and teleported here. I didn't mean to hurt your sister, please don't hurt me or throw me in a dungeon."

"Why would we do that?" said Twilight. "It was because of you that we were able to use the elements of harmony. If anything, we would like to thank you." She started approaching me, along with the other princesses and ponies. I fearfully back away.

"Oh, you poor pony." Fluttershy flew to me and got me to stand up. "You don't have to be scared." She hugged me to show that everything is okay, and it actually helped quite a bit. "We won't hurt you."

"Thank you." I say.

"Hey! How can we trust him? He could be a spy!" said Rainbow Dash. "I don't trust him."

"Rainbow, first me, and now this pony. Stop making those assumptions about everypony." Twilight turned to me. "If you were transformed into a pony, then what were you before you came here?"

"Before I came here, I was a human," I replied.

"Liar! You're just a Spy!" shouted Rainbow, pointing an accusing hoof in my direction.

"Rainbow!" Twilight scolded. "If he's lying, then how do you explain his lack of a cutie mark? She pointed to my flank. "I've done research on humans before, but I don't much about them."

"A human? I thought they were mythical creatures, along with the place they're from," said Celestia. "I guess it makes sense, humans are just an evolved form of monkeys."

"Shall we get going, Celestia?" said Luna, "We don't have all day."

"That's right. Twilight Sparkle, as interesting as this discovery is, I'm afraid we have royal duties to get to back to in Canterlot. I would like for you to learn more about the current situation and report to me your findings."

"In Canterlot?" asked Twilight.

"No Twilight, after seeing you with your friends, I've decided to make you a permanent resident in Ponyville."

"Really?" Twilight gasps.

"On one condition, you also report your findings to me on friendship every week. I Couldn't take you away from such good friends like this. I believe friendship will teach you some very valuable lessons."

"Yes! Of course!" Twilight jumped circles around the entire group excitedly. "Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"That means our new best friends will always be with us!" said Pinkie. Twilight's friends all pulled her in for a group hug, all of them laughing and shouting excitedly. "This calls for a party! For both Twilight and Daniel!"

"Goodbye everypony, and thank you." said Celestia.

"Thank you all." said Luna. The two princesses uses a teleportation spell and with that, they were gone.

"Can somepony explain something to me?" I say, causing the ponies to remember that I was here and turn to face me. "Firstly, how did I even get here? Secondly, what was that thing I did?" I had no idea how I was able to use magic like that, and I wasn't sure if I could do it again.

"Allow me to explain everything, but first, we need to tell you our names. I'm Twilight Sparkle."

"I'm Rarity."

"Ah'm Applejack."

"I'm Rainbow Dash."

"I'm Pinkie Pie, but you can just call me Pinkie, all my friends do, and that's everypony."

"Um... I'm Fluttershy."

I already knew all of their names, but I decided to pretend I've never seen them before. I knew of fanfics about the main six going on Earth and finding out about their tv show. I wasn't sure how they would react to this news, and most of the time they don't take it very well. I also didn't want Rainbow thinking I'm a spy any more than she already does, so I figured it would be best to not say anything about it.

"It's nice to meet you all."

"The two ponies you saw earlier were Princess Celestia and Luna. They rule Equestria together. I'll talk about that more later," said Twilight. "I'm not actually sure what to do with you. The princess didn't give me much to work with." She walks a few circles around me, observing me. "You look like a fully grown stallion in every way. I wouldn't have believed you if you had a cutie mark."

"Yawn," said Rainbow Dash. "Can't you explain this stuff when I'm not around? You're boring me."

"Come on, let's go home now, I need to throw parties for Daniel, Luna, and Twilight, let's go." Pinkie Pie bounced towards the exit.

"Yes, I need my beauty sleep, and standing around talking isn't helping." said Rarity. Everypony except for Twilight headed for the exit.

"Girls! I'm not finished!" Twilight gave an annoyed sigh when she realized everypony was gone. "Fine! We can talk about this later." She caught up with the group before we could get any further.

"Great, so where will I stay?" I ask. "It's getting late, and I'll need a place to rest.

"He ain't stayin with me." said Applejack coldly.

"Even if I trusted you, you're not a pegasus. You'd go right through my house." muttered Rainbow Dash.

"Um... you can stay with me, if that's okay with you." Fluttershy mumbled.

"Really? I wouldn't want to be a bother."

"It's fine. I take animals into my house all the time."

"I guess I'll stay with Fluttershy then."

______________________________________________________________________

When we got back to Ponyville, each of us went our separate ways. I agreed to see Twilight in the morning so she could tell me more about Ponyville and Equestria, and answer any questions I had. Rarity told me to come to her boutique so she could get my measurements incase I ever wanted an outfit from her. Rainbow Dash and Applejack just ignored my goodbye and walked away. Pinkie Pie told me she was going to start preparations for a welcome party, and Fluttershy led me to her cottage on the outskirts of Ponyville.

"Right this way. It's that house there," said Fluttershy. The cottage was small and surrounded by trees, with two windows on the front. She approached the door, opened it, and motioned me in. "Sometimes I take care of a few animals here in the house. The guest bedroom is upstairs, which is where you can sleep."

I step inside and suddenly, a rabbit jumps to me and starts scratches my leg repeatedly. "Hey there, little rabbit," I say. The scratching didn't really hurt at all, so I just ignore it. "What's his name, Fluttershy?" I pick him up with my magic to stop him from actually hurting my leg.

She takes the rabbit out of my magical grip. "His name is Angel, he's my pet." She carries him to his bed, scolding him on the way there. Angel glares at me before hopping into his bed and going to sleep.

"Thanks again for letting me stay, Fluttershy."

"It's no problem, really."

While Fluttershy was busy putting Angel to bed, I trudged up the stairs and into the guest bedroom. I was through quite a bit today, I didn't realize how exhausted I actually was until I got into the guest room. I climbed into bed and get comfortable under the blankets when some very worrying thoughts entered my mind.

What am I going to do? What if I can't get home? I can't be thinking like that, I need to be optimistic. I will get home. Tomorrow, I'm gonna go to Twilight's house and learn more about this place. That'll be great, learning everything I already know about this place. I have to do everything I can to make sure they don't find out the truth. At least I'll find out how I was able to use such powerful magic. I think I'll also talk to Rainbow Dash and Applejack and find out why they don't trust me. I'll do all that tomorrow, but for now, I need some sleep.

Those were my last thoughts before I slowly drifted to sleep.
