The Other guy

24 Hours ago.

I woke up in a cold sweat. It's that same dream again or flash back I guess. I looked at my alarm clock it says 1 am. 'Great another sleepless night.' I thought to myself. I got out of bed and headed towards the bathroom.

As I entered my bathroom  I looked in the mirror. I was a decent looking twenty seven year old  I had short blonde almost white hair. I had emerald like eyes with a couple of scars over my right eye. One of them went straight down my face while the other one was diagonal  going down to my bottom lip. I washed my face off. As I looked back at the mirror a reptilian like face looked back at me. It had brown scales all over it's face with large teeth coming out of it's mouth. I proceeded to punch the mirror breaking it in the process. ' The war is over Chris calm down.' I thought to myself. I looked at my hand. I had shards of glass in between my knuckles. " Fuck." I said.

I walked towards my kitchen with blood trickling down my hand.  As I made my way to the kitchen I opened the fridge  and grabbed a bottle of whisky. I then proceeded to walk to the family room and sat down on the couch.  I pulled out the first piece of glass. Owe dear god that hurt. Alright time to for number two. I pulled out the second one. It took every fiber of my being not to scream. "Come on Chris you've been threw a lot worse than this." I said trying to comfort myself. Blood started to flow out of my body. Alright last one. I took a deep breath as I took the last one out. That was the least pain full of the three.  'This is going to hurt.' I took a deep breath as I poured the whisky onto my hand. " Bloody Fucking Hell!" I yelled.  

" Are you trying to wake everyone up." A Masculine voice said. I looked and saw my farther walking towards me. He was twenty two years older than me. But, because of Quzacion ageing he looked like he could be my older brother. He had sapphire like eyes and short white hair. "Let me look at that." He said. I handed him my hand. He grabbed a bandage and wrapped it around my hand. " You shouldn't waste whisky like this." He then proceeded to take a drink of it.  He then hands it to me.

" So what are you doing up?" I said taking a drink of the whisky.

" I've always been a night person." He said " I love to star gaze. Trying to get a bearing of where we are in the galaxy." He then proceeded to take a drink. " Of course now the galaxy is a lot smaller than it was when I was your age."

" So what's your plan for today." I said.      

" I have an interview with a law firm in town at two." He said. " You?"

" Have a few cars that need to be worked on." I said.

" Ahh.... Chris" He said. "You could do much better than a nine to five mechanic." He said. This speech again. " You created an organization that played a major part during the Wraith War."

" Dad I lost too much during the war." I said. " I just want a normal life now. I want to be there for my remaining children."

     " That's understandable." He said. " Just know that whatever you do. I'll be here for you. I'll always have your back."

"Daddy." I heard a female voice say. I looked and saw an eight year old girl with long blonde hair.

" Hey Luka, did I wake you." I asked as she sat right beside me.

" I had a bad dream daddy." She said. She made her way to my lap.

" Luka." I said. " It's okay. Just tell those bad dreams to go away." I gave her a big hug and kissed her forehead.  I heard a knock on the door. "I'll be back." I walked towards the front door. I opened the door. " It's one in the morning. You better have a damn good reason..." I looked and saw a man with greying black hair and an eye patch over his left eye. "Admiral" I said. Admiral Seth McNave a friend of the family.

" We have a problem Chris." He said. " The Wraith have returned."

present  ( Chris's POV)

" What the hell." I said looking around. I feel wet, I noticed I was lying down in water. Out of all the places I could of ended up it had to be a fountain.  I get out of the fountain. I then press a button on my ear. " This is Moriland." I said. " To any and all survivors please come in ."  I looked around and saw I was in some kind of medieval village.

" Moriland?." A voice said. Great it's Price. Jerry Price former Earth senator for AOSHR and the newly elected President of the United States. We never saw eye to eye on anything. So needless to say I voted for the other guy. " Where are you."

" In some village." I said looking around. " You?"

  " In a city by the looks of it." He said.

" Is Luka with you?" I asked worried about my daughter.

" It's alright Chris, She's with us." he said. Oh thank god. " We'll...."  the line went dead.

"Price..." I said. " The bastard hanged up on me." I looked around to gather my bearings.

" Excuse me darling." A feminine voice somewhat posh said. I looked and saw a white horse with a purple mane looking at me. Wait does it have a horn? It's a unicorn that's... Awesome.

" Did you just talk." I said.

" Yes I did dear." She said. Well that's a first. She walked towards me. " So what are you."

" I'm a Quzacion- Human hybrid." I said. " My name is Chris Morriland."

" I'm Rarity." She said. " So why were you asleep in a fountain."

      " Ahh." I said. " Well you see..."  How should I proceed. " I went threw a portal and ended up here." Wow that sounded a lot better in my mind. " So where am..." *achoo.* " I?"

" In Ponyvile." She said. "Come with me." She started walking away.

" Excuse me?" I said. * Achoo.* Great I got a cold now. Must have been in that water for a long time.  

" Well dear." She said. Why does she keep calling me that? " You have a cold. The best thing for you to do is take a warm bath, a nice cup of tea and rest. I'm willing to help you out if you want dear." She has a point. "Now come along." Might as well.

later

   I lied down in a hot bath. "It's been one hell of a day." I thought.

" Chris you there." Dad said threw the earpeice.

" I'm here dad, good to hear your voice." I said.

" Yours too. Price told me he made contact with you" He said. " We made contact with the planets species. you wouldn't belive..."

"That were in a  world of talking horses or ponies I guess." * Achoo.* I said.

" You okay." Dad said. " You sound terrible."

" I woke up in a fountain of cold water." I said. " Needless to say I have a cold now."

" Well that sucks." He said. " We found out that were in a place called Canterlot, You?"

" Ponyvile." I said. " How many people made it."

" Counting the two of us." He said taking a deep breath. " about a hundred in total."

" What!" I said. " We had two hundred soilders, and over four hundred civilians. How  did we lose so much?"

        " You know how the wraith are." He said. He has a point there. "When do you think you'll be here."

" A couple days at the most." I said guessing. " As soon as I get better I'll be on my way" I waited for a while and he didn't say anything. "Hello?" And they hung up on me again just freaking great.

" Dear." Rarity said. " Are you alright. Who are you talking too?"

" I'm fine." As I said that she opened the door and stepped in.  " What are you doing?" I said covering my privates.

" I thought you could use some help." She said.

" I'm fine." I said. I could tell that I was blushing. " I'm naked can you leave?" Why am I blushing?

" Why? I'm also unclothed." Rarity said. She's right she was naked...

"It's considered taboo where I'm from to be naked in public." I said. " Especially in front of a pretty lady like yourself." Did I just say that? I maybe southern but I aint that southern. She's a horse for pete's sakes. Then again she is technically an Alien so would it count? I shouldn't be thinking about that.  

" I understand." She said leaving the room. "Mind if I ask you some questions."

" Go ahead." I said.

" Why do you have those scars." She said.

" War." I said.  "I don't like to talk about what happened."

" Okay I understand. Do you have a special somepony."She said.

" A special what?" I said. " I'm sorry I don't know your terms.

" Sorry." She said. " Is their some pony... I mean Human I guess. that is in your life. Someone who you would like to spend the rest of your life with." Owe that's what she meant.

" No." I said. " I've had too many bad relationships. So I gave up looking for someone. It's better for everyone that way."

" Well That's unfortanent " She said. " You probably would have made a good Coltfriend... for somepony."

   " Colt friend?" I asked. " What's that?"

" Well I presume your a stallion." Rarity said. "Since you don't sound like a mare. a colt is a young stallion."

" Oh...  boy friend is my peoples term." I said. " What about you do you have a special some pony?"

" Oh havens no." She said. " I'm always busy. If I'm not working then I'm off with my friends on some wild adventure."

Well I'm clean enough. " Hey are my clothes dried yet" * Achoo.* Damn it.

" Not yet dear." She said. " This should cover you up enough." A towel levitated towards me.

" You guys are telepathic? Neat." I said. I stepped out of the tub and grabbed the towel. I then proceeded to wrap it around me. I then walk over to the mirror to make sure I don't have any extra scars on me. " Nothing new." I said.

" You okay in there." Rarity said.

" Yeah." I said. " I'm okay." I walked out of the bathroom. "If I hadn't said it before. Thank you for your kindness."

" It's okay." Rarity said. " I'm a very generous person. Now come on the tea should be ready."  I proceeded to fallow her to her kitchen.  

" So what do you do for a living?" I asked.

" I create fashion." She said. They have clothing!

" Wait so if you guys have clothing." I said. " Then why are all of you naked?"

  " Unlike your species." She said. " Clothing isn't a necessity. It's used for formal gatherings and such."

" Oh okay." I said.  " How far are we from Canterlot?"

" Why do you ask?" She said.

" The other people I came here with are there." I said.

" I'll take you there." She said.

" No you've done so much for me already." I said. "I couldn't impose on you anymore."

" it's okay." She said. " I don't mind. my schedule is open for a couple of days."

" Well thank you miss Rarity." I said.

" Your most certainly welcome mister Chris." She said with a smile on her face.  

" Rarity are you home?" A female voice said.

" I'll be back." Rarity said.  " Actually want to come with."

" Nah." I said. " Don't want to intrude more than I already have." Rarity then leaves.  

" Moriland come in." Price said over the  earpiece.

" I swear if you guys hang up on me one more time." I said.  I decide not to finish my train of thought.

" Sorry we where having technical difficulties." Price said. " So your in a place called Pony vile?"

" Yeah." I said * achoo* Oh come on.  I then proceeded to take a sip of the tea. It had a sweet almost honey like taste to it.

" We made contact with the rulers of this country." Price said. "They offered us asylum in exchange for are loyalty towards them."

" Okay then." I said. " Hey Jerry can you put Luka on."

" Alright Chris." Price said.

" Daddy?" Luka said. The sound of her voice made my heart melt.

" Hey Luka." I said in a soft voice. " How are you doing."

" I'm doing fine daddy." She said.    

" That's good to know." I said. " I'm sorry that I'm not there. I'll be there as soon as I can I promise." * Achoo.* Oh come on. I took another sip of the tea.  

   " I'm... scared" Luka said.

" Everything will be alright .... Hello?" I said. Again really. " Freaking  Chinese crap." I said.  I took the ear piece out and put it on the table.   *CRASH*.  " The hell was that." I ran towards the door.  I looked and saw  Rarity with a  pony with lavender fur and a dark purple mane. I looked further and saw....  He's a humanoid! He had dark blue hair by the looks of it.  He and the lavender pony were  fending off five ponies and kicking ass at the same time.

one a Pegasus by the looks of it flew behind him. " Johan look out." the Lavender one said.  I stick my hand out. I could feel energy  going threw my body as a blue sphere appeared out of my right hand.  It fired out of my hand and hit the Pegasus right in the stomach making him fly sideways  hitting a wall.  The guy looked at me. He had emerald like eyes and had my jaw line. weird.

" You missed one." * Achoo* I said.

" Thanks." He said.
