“Shhhhh, I think he’s waking up,” somepony said as the pony in the bed opened one eye slowly. After he had traveled through the portal, Twilight and her friends brought him to Twilight’s library. They had spent half the night contemplating on how to tell Princess Celestia, when he woke up.
He had an odd coat of dark blue, like that of the darkest nights, and had a mane of black. He was a unicorn and his cutie mark was odd, it was a book with the night on it, surrounded by a magic aura. As he looked around, they found that he was calm, like he knew where he was.
“Hi, I’m Pinkie Pie. What’s your name?” Pinkie Pie started, not wasting a single second to miss making a new friend.
The unicorn in the bed started to sit up to get more comfortable, but was too weak to do so and just stayed there.
“Hey, I’m Anthony. I don’t mean to be rude, but can I have some help out of this bed? I hate to speak and be in a bed at the same time,” Anthony asked, throwing the blankets off of him and shifting over to the edge. Apple Jack and Twilight helped him out, and he found a spot to lean on.
“Well howdy do Anthony, I’m Apple Jack. So what can you tell us about your self?” Apple Jack said, not letting the unicorn have a moment to form a lie.
“Well, I’m sure that you know that I’m not from Equestria, as Twilight might have told you. Where I’m from is completely different from here. Like how here you all have to walk, while in mine, we drive motor vehicles around to get-”
“Wait a minute, how do you know my name? I never told you what my name was, and how do you know how we get around?” Twilight asked, making everypony look at the unicorn quizzingle.
“Shit, I was hoping not to get into all of that too early,” he said, not realizing he opened more doors for questioning then he thought.
“Get into what?” Twilight asked. “And what was that you said?” The unicorn hung his head in shame for letting out such a little phrase and forgetting where he was.
“Alright, this is going to be long. I suggest you all get comfortable, and probably some food. I’ll be rambling on for quite a while.” The ponies all got seated and had Spike make up some sandwiches. “Ok, so, I am from a world that has a population of over seven billion people. Just people. Humans are the dominant species in my world. We are the only one able to vocalize naturally, we are the only one able to think and solve problems on a large scale, and we are the only ones able to have an imagination.
“Now, we have intelligent creatures on our planet, but not as advanced as us. We have our own governments, countries, militaries. We are unfortunately the only one that goes to war over land, money, or ideas. One example of this is during what we call the Middle Ages, we had the Crusades; wars over different religious ideas. They had no point other than to give certain people more power.
“Another unfortunate thing about humans is a greed problem. When some people get too rich, they don’t want to even lose one cent. They just want more money, for no reason other than the fact that they can. They will never use it and they don’t care if their children suffer for it later, only them, them, them. Sorry, that stuff really pisses me the fuck off,” He took a second to calm down before he continued. Thankfully they didn’t ask him about anything else.
“Now, in my world we have TV shows, video games, movies, etc. We have a show called My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and it has become one of the biggest shows on TV in the shortest amount of time. It is watched by millions, me being one of them. I have a theory on why we have this show and you all actually existing; parallel universes.
“I believe that there are actually hundreds of universes, all running parallel to each other. I theories that the different worlds want to mix, but can’t, so the universe’s information is transferred and infects different people in all. So yours was sent to one person in mine and now we have the show. This also means that there are different realms as well, not all of them friendly,” Anthony was now tired out from all the explaining. He believed his theory to be correct, and so did Twilight.
“That makes perfect sense. I think then your universe is the most easily penetrated, make it the one I could make a portal to the easiest,” Twilight said, all excited. She now was excited at the other possibilities.
“That would be right, but be careful if you decide to open other portals. I suggest getting me, because I might know the universe, or at least be of some help with different histories. Now to get to a topic I don’t know how to talk about. Hum, got it!
“Another problem humans have is words. There are hundred of words in the English dictionary and only maybe a dozen words or considered “bad” words. In our world, we have what is called the Internet. It’s a virtual holder of all the information in my world. If it existents, it’s on the Internet. When we mature, we look up some of the more…um…adult rated things on the Internet. You have no idea how much information you can learn from something until you start looking.
“Any way, when you go to a school and everyone uses those words, they become second nature to use. I have unfortunately fallen into that group. I’m pretty good at not saying certain things, but a word or two might slip from time to time, so be ready. I apologize in advance for any and all I will say.” He decided that then would be a good time to open the floor to any questions. None were asked, mostly because they had all been up through the entire night and hadn’t slept. The unicorn was tired too, but was able to not show it. The other ponies said their good-byes and left.
“Here,” Twilight said, helping me to the spare bedroom. He didn’t complain as she helped him there, Anthony knew it would be pointless. The unicorn was out before his head hit the pillow. Twilight pulled the blanket up and covered him and went to her own room. The sun was up, but that didn’t matter, sleep did. Celestia would have to wait till later to hear about the new friend Twilight had made last night.
