Upon entering the next door, I found herself surrounded by a forest in what appeared to be a mountain. Taking a sniff of the air, I guess that I was also near the ocean with the salty smelly air.

“Now where am I?” However, when I reached for my saddle bag, I realized that I was still a pony. “Well, guess this is a pony world. Although, where in Equestria is there a mountain forest near the sea?” I would have continued on. Talking to myself till I found somepony. If I hadn’t heard a roar in the distance.

A moment later, one of the tree’s in front of me was pushed out of the way, as a gigantic snowman gazed down at me.

“AAAHH!” I screamed, falling onto my hunches. Stumbling backwards. All the while, my life began to flash before my eyes. Unfortunately, it wasn’t of anything pleasant.

Instead, as the beast loomed closer, I was reminded of a time when bullies would circle up on me at school. Not for any reason in particular even, but just because it was fun. Then, there was that one conversation I had with my dad prior to all of this…

“Now, honey,” my dad asked, looking at my pony plushies, “don’t you think you’re getting too old for that?”

“Okay, okay, you found me!” A stranger’s voice shouted out from behind me.

Perplexed, but relieved to see the snow beast backing up, I looked over to see a smaller snowman jump out from behind a rock.

I recognized the little snowman immediately.

“Alright, now it’s my turn,” Olaf said jumping up and down.

Meanwhile, I was lost for words. Not so much of the living snowmen though. Even killer ones would have just been so-so at this point. However, the fact that these two had nothing to do with My Little Pony caught me off guard. Not that my Frozen fangirl wasn’t fangasming, but still. So what the heck—

“Oh, hey,” Olaf said, having noticed me, “didn’t see you there. You lost….” He look to my horn and gasped. “It’s another pony!”

I blinked. “Wha—”

“Is it really necessary to make such a mess?” Another, somewhat, familiar voice shouted in the distance. Then, said voice slowly trotted past the trees, to reveal none other, that the fan created pony: Snowdrop.

“Oh!” I said out loud. “So this is some kind of cross-over universe?”

Snowdrop paused in midair as she looked with her pale eyes in my direction. “Huh? Sorry there, miss.” She began to fly closer. “You okay, we didn’t mea—”

“Hey, Snowdrop, it’s another talking pony. Just like you!” Olaf explained. “Only it’s got a horn on it’s head instead of wings!”

Eyes widen, hoof almost having brushed on my face, Snowdrop landed and flinched back. “Oh… Um, a… um, er, pony?” She looked away from me.

I sighed. “Yeah.” Standing up, I took a step forward. As I did so, my nervous sigh turned into a wide grin looking at Snowdrop.

Truth be told, Snowdrop has always been one of my favorite pony characters. Cannon, OC, or otherwise. Heck, I even had a Snowdrop plushie back home that I would curl up with when I had a really bad day. Which, thinking about it, happened quite a lot back home.

I shook my head. “Well, it’s nice to meet you, Snowdrop. I’m a huge fan.”

Snowdrop blinked and looked curiously at me. “You are?”

I was about to answer, when a thought occurred to me.

Maybe, just maybe, saying right away that this world was likely just a figment of some guy’s imagination and love of a cartoon was a bad idea. Besides, if I knew Snowdrop like I think I did, I didn’t want to startle her too soon with such heavy knowledge.

“I mean,” Snowdrop said, noticing my pause, “I guess it’s nice to have a fan of my work.” She rubbed her neck. “But really, it’s no big deal. Most of the weather ponies just mass produce my designs.”

“Um…”I thought, before an idea struck me. "Oh yeah, I mean, back in… I always did admire your snowflakes. And how you inspired Princess Luna despite your handicap, that was amazing.”

Snowdrop smiled at me. “Thanks… Didn’t get as many compliment as you would think. It’s nice to be noticed. Always happy to hear that I could make at least one pony smile.”

‘Oh you have no idea,’ I thought. Then caught myself once I realized how long I had been staring into Snowdrop’s eyes. Not that she could see, but it still felt rude.

“Well,” Olaf interrupted, placing himself between us, “it’s nice to meet you…”

“Huh? Oh, um, Pixel.”

Olaf smiled and spread out his twig arms. “Hi, I’m Olaf and I like warm hugs.”

Unable to hold it in, I let out a fan squeal. “I know!” I said as I hugged back.

“Um, anyways,” Snowdrop interrupted, “why don’t you come with us back to the castle? I’m sure Elsa wouldn’t mind a little more company. She’s also looking for a way to… Get me home as well.”

I raised an eyebrow at Snowdrop’s pause, but shrugged it off. Knowing that sounded like my best option for the moment. “Sure, be happy to.”

We made our way towards Elsa’s castle in silence for awhile. Never talking, always moving, while I did my best to keep away from Marshmallow. Even though I was aware that it wasn’t going to kill me, a part of me just couldn’t get over how he remained of some of my sadder moments in life with his massive bulk.

Truth be told, I was rather short back home. Not dwarfish, but small enough to always feel insignificant next to everyone else. Then, to make it worse, it seemed as if everyone taller just wanted me to grow up. As if it was my fault I still like toys and couldn’t stand my ground when someone found something funny to taunt me with.

The older I got, the worse things it seemed to get.

At least with this little adventure were proving to be a nice escape. Once I got over the fact that I wasn’t going to die, I had the best laugh I had since… well, in a long time.

“You okay?” Snowdrop asked, a bit closer than I would have liked.

“Oh, um… Yeah! To… Totally. I mean, we much further?”

Snowdrop tapped on her hooves a few times. Supposedly counting or something “I think so. Maybe 100 more wing flaps and—”

“Hey!” Olaf shouted ahead of us. “The castle’s right over here.”

“Oh,” Snowdrop nodded, “well then.” She held out a hoof to me. “Shall we?”

I looked quizzically at the hoof, until I realized that she might have wanted someone to lead her inside. “Um, sure thing.” I took her hoof, and found an intense heat radiating from it into me. However, before I could walk forward, she lifted me off the ground and dragged me along.

“Whoa!” I cried, as we zoomed out of the forest.

“Sorry!” Snowdrop answered back as we fly by some people till we reached one of the castle’s back doors. “To fast?”

“No… No!” I responded, brushing myself from those flowers she pulled me through. “I mean… geez, you’d think after being on a TARDIS I could handle that.”

She tilted her head at me. “A TARDIS?”

I blinked. “Oh right! Twelfth century or something for both worlds. I’ll explain in a bit. Right now, you mentioned Elsa?” I felt as if talking to Elsa was the first step in me finding the next door.

“Of course,” Snowdrop nodded, opening the castle’s door. “You’ll really like her. She can be a bit…”

“Overbearing?” Olaf questioned right behind us.

Snowdrop shrugged. “She means well.”

I almost answered before I heard a rustle from behind us. Turning, I saw Marshmallow sulk back into the forest.

“Oh don’t worry about him.” Olaf assured me. “He just likes his alone time.”

‘Story of my life.’ I thought, thinking back to all those nights alone in my room… Rather than joining any clubs because I was afraid of ridicule. Or because I preferred to read fanfictions instead of join a sports team.

No, I mean, it wasn’t as if I didn’t have any friends. We just didn’t hang out anywhere aside from school.

“Hey, Snowdrop, who’s you’re friend?” Someone said as I was brought to attention.

We had walked inside the castle for a little while. If my limited knowledge of the movie was correct, I’d say we were halfway to the courtroom.

“Oh, this is Pixel.” Snowdrop explained. “She came from the same world I did. I’m taking her to meet Elsa.”

Not technically true, but I’m sure I could explain more once I meet the queen.

“Oh,” the woman Snowdrop had been talking too nodded. “Can I get you anything? You need—”

“I’m good.” Snowdrop said rather fast. She grabbed onto my hoof and I felt that warm feeling again. “Come on, let’s not keep her waiting.”

I gawked at Snowdrop’s sudden attitude, but shrugged it off. I knew she was often depicted as being rather prideful in wanting to be independent despite her handicap in many stories. This version seemed to be no exception.

Although, there was that one story about her and Nyx falling in love.

Gosh, they were so adorable together when then cuddle and… Wait, am I blushing?! Oh, I hope she doesn’t see me… Wait, she can’t see me! For that matter, why do I care? Even more so, why do I care!? I don’t have a—

“Elsa?” Snowdrop called out, letting go of my hoof as we entered the throne room. “Elsa, you around?”

No response.

“Oh, hey, Snowdrop.” A familiar voice from the movie, answered. A moment later, I saw it was Anna. She looked over at us after having straightened out a vase. “You’re back sooner than usual. Elsa is… Is…” She stared blankly at me.

I began to nervously look around the room. “Um… Hi.”

“Run.” Olaf whispered to me. However, it proved to be too late.

Eyes widen, face bursting with joy, Anna squeed, and then raced towards me. Crushing me into a hug, she squealed, “Oh my god, it’s a unicorn! Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! You’re so cute!”

As I fought to be free, I felt another set of limbs tug at me as Snowdrop shouted, “Anna, release!”

Before my air supply could run out, Snowdrop was able to loosen me from Anna’s grip. We both stumbled backwards, as Snowdrop landed on her rear as I plopped into her lap.

“You alright?” Snowdrop asked with a groan, trying to get up.

“I…” I began, looking into her eyes.

There was a long pause between us. A moment of awkward silence that shouldn’t have been there. Till at last, Anna was able to break it.

“Sorry there.” She apologized. Although, her wide eyed, girl in love with unicorn face my mom would always tease me about lingered. “In any case, I suppose I better let Elsa know. So, um… You two just wait here. I’m sure she’ll be pleased to meet you.”

I nodded. “Likewise.”

She gave me a smile, and then was off. Leaving me alone with Snowdrop and Olaf, who had been distracted by something, leaving it just me and Snowdrop.

“If it mean anything…” Snowdrop rubbed her chin, then burst out laughing. “Oh no. there’s no question, you got it worse than I did with her.”

I rolled my eyes. “So happy to have made your experience with her less horrify by comparison.” I brushed a piece of mane out of my face.

She giggled some more at me. “Though, trust me, it was quite an experience to be showered with attention.” She then became very silent and look in a different direction.

I frowned. But before I could say anything, I realized that I too would rarely get showered with that kind of love back home. Sure, my parents would, mostly mom, would hug me. However, for the most part, no one had ever shown me that kind of affection. Not that I was possible on Snowdrop’s same level with her disability, but I guess that’s why I was so drawn to her animation. Every time I watched it, I just felt so bad for her, watching most of world push her to the side, only to be loved when she found a purpose.

“Yeah, I know the feeling, Snowdrop. Always feeling like nothing you do if right?”

She twitched her lip. “Colts and fillies always finding a way to get a rise out of you. Even when they could be doing a lot of better.”

I rolled my eyes. “Yeah, and the only escape is in what you love doing.”

My eyes snapped open as she approached me, smiling wide. “Well, don’t worry.” she assured me, lifting up my chin. “I can be your friend if you like.”

“Um…” I stared, mesmerized by her… Wait, I’m not crushing on her, am I?

I’m straight…. Well, as a human anyways. Which currently, I am not. Still, was this real, or just some fan fiction most mares are into mares thing? I never got that, but I suppose that made some sense with Equestria’s… Right, dealing with the possibly beautiful mare holding my chin in front of me. “Ye… Yeah. I mean, I guess. I…” I loosened up. “Yeah, guess we could be friends.” For as long as I’ll be here… Which won’t be that long.

My stomach cramped.

Snowdrop blinked, then quickly lowered her hoof. “Well, I…I.."

“I see you found a new friend, Snowdrop.” A cough interrupted us.

We both tensed and backed away from each other. Then we turned to see Elsa, in all her glory.

“Oh, um, queen Elsa!” I bowed at the famed Disney character, shaking nervously. “It so nice to meet you.”

She chuckled. “Huh, a pony that knows how to address me. Perhaps you could learn a thing or two from him, Snowdrop.”

I nervously looked up to see her smirking at Snowdrop.

Snowdrop facehoofed.

I glared at Elsa. “Um, I’m a mare.”

Elsa blinked at me. “Oh… Oh! I am sorry, little one. I did not mean to offend. I am sure you must have had a rough day.” She made her way to her throne and took a seat. “Please, would you mind telling us a bit more about yourself?”

I opened my mouth to question the ‘us’ part, when a large boulder rolled past me, unfolded into one of those old trolls—that mind wiping grandpa troll who’s name I could never remember—and took a seat next to Elsa.

“Another one?” he said, looking closely at me. Or rather, at my horn. “Next thing you know, they’ll be popping up like weeds. Though, you survive having meet Anna?”

“Hey!” Anna’s voice cried out from somewhere.

We looked around, but when we couldn’t see where she might have been, I answered, “Just barely. If not for Snowdrop here.”

The two of them laughed, before grandpa troll said, “In any case, please, tell us a bit about yourself, dear.”

I took in a deep breath. “Alright. Though, bear with me if this is a bit hard to believe.”

So I told them nearly everything about me. I told them that I was actually a human turned pony—which caused a stranger reaction from Snowdrop that I couldn’t read—and how this happened. Thankfully, Snowdrop was able to back me up a little by explain the chaos god. Nobody in the room seemed to like that one bit. Still, I was able to ease most of them up by explaining how he was sending me on some wild goose chase through many different worlds, and hadn’t interacted with me in any of them.

“So,” Elsa pondered, scratching her chin, “this place is just some stop on your journey?”

I nodded. “More or less. He told me, to keep moving on, I had to find a door that would carry me on.”

“Fascinating.” Grandpa troll nodded. “A whole multiverse of worlds.”

I was also about to explain to them the whole fiction concept, when I noticed that Snowdrop was sulking. I don’t know why, but I decided to leave that little detail out. Besides, even if there world was supposedly fiction in my world, they clearly seemed to exist. Besides, who's to say that, if some scientist found a way to travel dimensions, every world I visited couldn’t have been reached again?

So instead, I said. “Yeah, it is something.”

“Well,” Elsa nodded, “we can try to help you find this, door, you speak of. If you wouldn’t mind giving Grandpaie and the other troll’s the chance to look over it once you’re gone. So as we might find a….” She grumbled. “Find a way to get miss Snowdrop home as well.”

Shrugging, I answered, “I suppose so. Though, I’m not sure it still works once I cross through. But I’d be happy to stay for a little while after that.” I found myself saying that with more enthusiasm than I should have.

I then noticed Snowdrop perk up simultaneously at that.

Elsa clasped her hands. “Wonderful! Grandpaie, if you wouldn’t mind, have some of the troll’s look around the castle doors and see if they find anything strange about them. Though, is there anything else you can tell us about these doors, Pixel? I’d hate just to barge into everybody’s homes just to look through their closets.”

So I told her what else I knew, all while I noticed Snowdrop looking away from me whenever she thought I was glancing at her. Kicking the ground, all while whistling an innocent tone.

The next few hours was spent with just me and Snowdrop wondering the halls as trolls and servants alike where opening and closing doors left and right. It had started off with an escort by Elsa as well. Constantly overbearing us, and always putting herself between Snowdrop and I. Till at one point, Snowdrop feel back, and flew me off so we could look on our own for the door. After that, it was the best possible time for me.

Sometimes we would look for the door. Most of the time, we talked about things only kids our age or a bit older would on a relaxing afternoon.

“We may be entitled to our opinions, but how can you like strawberry ice-cream the most?” Snowdrop questioned me.

“Hey, I like pin—Strawberries. Is that quite a crime.”

She shook her head. Then, playfully, teased, “You don’t need to be oh so sensitive about colors with me.” She chuckled. “Guess I now know how prince… Queen, Elsa feels.”

I laughed and smiled as we walked along.

While the more adventurous worlds on my journey were… Exciting, this was much more peaceful and down to earth. As Snowdrop and I talked about silly things such as favorite flavor of ice-cream, I had forgotten all about my little quest. The thoughts of my own home world where put on hold as I chatted it up with my new friend. So much so, that at one point we didn’t even bother to look at any doors.

That was, until I bumped into to someone.

“Pardon…” the man began, before looking at us. He then gave an irritated groan, muttered, “dumb ponies.” And was off.

Ear flattened on my head, I began to think back to the world that I supposedly wanted to go back to. For that matter, all the adults who seemed to look down at me more and more as I got closer to the end of high school.

I then felt a hoof pull me into a hug. “Don’t worry about it. Guess this place is still getting use to us. Although, try to avoid the children for as long as possible.” She shuddered. “You think Anna was bad, try surviving a herd of human fillies.”

I chuckled. “Well, you try not wanting to hug such an adorable mare if you meet one and let me know how long you last.”

She raised an eyebrow at me. “Oh, adorable, huh?”

I began to chuckle nervously, realizing that her hoof was still wrapped around me. To top it off, her face seemed to be moving ever more slowly towards me.

In a panic, I ended up slipping on some carpet. Which might have been alright, if I had stumbled us into a wall. Which, as it goes, had a hidden button on it. As such, the wall began to spin around, and Snowdrop and I were tossed into a secret passage.

“You know,” Snowdrop said, pulling herself up, “this is not what I had in mind when looking for your door.”

I groaned, having landed on my face. “Oh tell me about it.” I shook myself off and looked around to see that we were in some kind of tunnel that only lead one of two ways. While it wasn’t pitch black, without any torches, I had a feeling it would be once it got dark outside. “So what do we do?” I felt along the wall. “Doesn’t seem to be anyway to open this door from this end.”

“Let’s just wait a bit.” Snowdrop suggested. “I mean, I’m sure someone saw us fall in and will have us out in no time.”

I nodded. “Right.” I then started to say something, when I noticed Snowdrop fuming. “You okay?”

“Fine,” she grumbled.

“…Okay.”

We didn’t speak, didn’t move. In fact, we both seemed to be keeping from each other after that little incident.

Then, after some time had passed without the trap door opening, I spoke. “So, um… Is there anything we haven’t covered?”

Snowdrop picked herself up and turned her head down a hallway. “I don’t think anyone’s coming. Maybe we should find out where this goes while there’s still daylight for you to see.” Without waiting for a response, she walked forward.

“Oh, um… Okay.” I said, worried that I may have hurt Snowdrop’s feelings when I backed away from her possible kiss. I mean…. Oh heck with it! So maybe it was just because I had a Snowdrop plushie back home I would sleep with at night. Either way, I was crushing on Snowdrop. Whatever that made me a lesbian or someone that could like both genders was still in the air. However, the debate of if I liked her was no more; I had a crush on Snowdrop. That sweet, funny, mare who understood some of my pains back home, and was just a pleasure to be around. Besides, it’s not like any of my crushes back home liked me.

Noticing my silence as we walked, Snowdrop would occasionally look back at me. Only to keep moving forward, head down.

“Hang on!” I said at one point. “I think this is a room right here.”

“Oh?” Snowdrop looked around. “Where?”

“I’ll show—” I began to reach a hoof out to her, but she just backed away. “Or you can just follow my voice.”

She slowly nodded. “Yeah.”

We walked inside the room, and even though I couldn’t put my hoof on it. I felt an odd sensation towards it. Was the door nearby?

“Well,” Snowdrop muttered in an emotionless tone, “we better feel around so we can get you home.”

I silently agreed as she started to buzz around the room, feeling the walls.

“Snowdrop, are you alright?”

“Never better.” She said bitterly.

I, in a mild bit of anger, lite up my horn an encased her in my magic.

“Hey! What the….” She struggled in my grasp. “Pixel! Is that you? Put me down?”

“No, not until we sort this out.” I stomped.

She narrowed her eyes at me. “Yeah, and what’s that?”

I sighed and lowered her to the ground. “That’s what I like to know as well.”

A bit peeved, but saddened, she looked away from me. “Well, I…” A tear rolled down her eye. “You see I… Grr. Either way, don’t take offense, Pixel. I like hanging out with you, I do. You’re probably the first pony my age who enjoys just having a casual conversation with me.”

I blushed. “I can say the same thing about you.”

She chuckled, then frowned. “Maybe we shouldn’t have ditched Elsa just to hang out. Aside from the lecture I’m sure to get, I’ve gotten too close to you.”

I stomped a hoof. “And just how is that a problem?”

Quivering, she lowered her head, and muttered, “You’ll be leaving.”

I drew closer. “What?”

“You’ll leave, just like everypony else, alright!” I feel on my rear. “Sorry. I… I just… Look, can I tell you something.” She took a seat next to me. “Heart to heart.”

“I suppose so.” I responded, feeling a mix of unpleasant emotions run through me.

“Well… I don’t know what you may have heard about me, but before I came here, I was all alone. Even when I because the world famous, Snowdrop, creator of the snowflake, I was always alone. My mom died when I was young, even in the weather factory I don’t have any friends. Even princess Luna, who I looked to as a mother, only had limited time to interact with me because of her duties.”

I wanted to question the whole ‘mother’ thing. Since I clearly remembered seeing her in the short. However, now wasn’t the time, and besides, I always thought the story might have felt much stronger if that was the case anyways.

Snowdrop continued. “So then I came here, meet Elsa, and for the first time… I felt truly loved.” She lowered her eyes at me. “Don’t you dare breathe a word to anyone, but I think she considers me her daughter sometime. Would be nice. And of course, I have Anna, Olaf, Marshmallow, Sven and Flyn, who I should show you sometimes. As annoying as they can be, the trolls and little girls I’ll visit sometimes…” she got really quiet then. Taking in a large breath, she said, “Sometime, I’m thinking that I don’t want to go back to Equestria. A part of me doesn’t want those trolls to find a way. I want to stay here. I want…” she held a hoof to mine. “I want you to stay here with me, Pixel.”

I pulled my hoof back and jumped away. “What? I… Snowdrop.”

She sat up and advanced towards me. “Come on, Pixel. Didn’t we have fun together today?”

“Well, I… Ye… Yeah, we did, but—”

“And didn’t you say your world was as miserable as mine?”

I stopped and stared down. Finding it hard to protest with what she said. Was it really worth it going home? In only the past few days, I’ve been having more fun than I’ve had my whole life. I’ve made friends, had an amazing adventure, meet a beautiful mare…

Who had still been inching closer to me.

“Well, I…” I muttered as I found myself pressed to a wall with no escape.

Snowdrop sighed and looked away from me. “No. Look, I… Pixel. I didn’t mean to do that.” She groaned. “You probably think I’m selfish to try and keep you to myself.”

I frowned, and made my way towards her. “Hey, I never said it wasn’t a bad idea.”

She perked up. “Really?”

I bit my lip. “Well…” I looked into those beautiful, pale white eyes. Knowing the one thing I could do to make them sparkle for all time. “I… Maybe. I mean…”

“Hey,” Snowdrop assured, placing a hoof on mine. “I don’t want you to feel like you have to do this. I mean, if there really is a good reason for you to get home, that’s fine.” She inched closer to me. “But…”

I weakly smiled and lifted up her chin. “You know… this world is rather nice.” My heart beamed as I looked at her smile. “You know, I… I’ll promise I’ll think about it. Okay?”

She nodded blissfully. “That’s good enough for me.”

In a fit of emotions, I lifted up her chin with my hoof. “Besides, I do know one thing.”

Her eyes started to half close. “Yeah,” she said dreamily, “what’s that?”

“There’s one thing this world can offer me my world can’t.” Then, before I could utter the cheesy line of herself. We found our lips closing the distance with each other, as we became one pony. One pony from two different worlds, who saw no reason to get back to their home while they had everything they could want right in front of them.

All of the sudden, a bright light pierced the darkness. “Snowdrop, Pixel?” Elsa shouted. “Are you—WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING!?”

Eyes snapping open, we pulled apart and nervously looked back and forth between ourselves and Elsa as the ice queen crossed her arms and began to tap her foot.

“So, um…” Snowdrop began to kick at the ground. “We found a secret passage that could have ended badly for someone if they stumbled upon it… I’d consider that a good day.”

Author's Notes:

Hey everypony! Pixel here and this chapter was made by ajvasquezbrony28, the creator of Elsa's Snowdrop.

This was their idea on the plan, so don't hurt me shippers! *hides in a box labeled "Pixel is definitely not in this box"* Not my fault! Also, the second part is being edited by someone by the name of TJHoofer. My other editor is having a bit of trouble with their internet, so I decided to ask him since he helped edit a chapter in a story around tiny humans and giant ponies... I think you'll know which one since I made a chapter for it once. Anyways, hope you like this chapter, comment if any mistakes were found.
