Equestria, Canterlot throne room.

In the large throne room of Canterlot castle stood two unicorns and a dragon. The unicorns were shining armor captain of the royal guard and Twilight Sparkle personal student of the Princess and sister of Shining. The Dragon was Twilights number 1 assistant and little brother figure, Spike. They were summoned by the Princess to welcome a guest who was a relative of an old friend of hers.

"Shining do you know who the pony that we're supposed to meet is? Because Princess Celestia was pretty vague about who she was bringing." Twilight asked her brother while worrying about her discovery of a certain alicorns return from the moon.

" I'm not sure what to tell you Twiley, all I know is its a dude who is a great descendant of somepony Celestia used to know in the past. " As a matter of fact, Armor did know something about the new arrival. Celestia told him that the new arrival was from a far off land strewn with violence and war. At first, this made the captain cautious about the visitor coming today, but he figured he would trust his ruler's judgment.

As the hours ticked by spike occupied himself with the latest power pony comic just to stave off boredom. Right as he was getting to the point where filly second was about to clock the mugger in the jaw a light started to form in the middle of the room. "Hey, guys I think we're about to meet the guy." Spike pocketed the comic and turned his attention to the middle of the room.

The light started to dim as the spell revealed its two occupants, Celestia and me. "Holy crap I think we left my right kidney back in that Bifrost knockoff, "I exclaimed while holding in my lunch.

" I'm sorry Joe I should have warned you about teleporting for first-timers. It will pass momentarily but first I would like you to meet some ponies. " she pointed her head towards the other occupants in the room. I followed where she was pointing and was meet with two unicorns and a young drake with different facial expressions towards me. The tall white one glared at me and looked he was ready for me to make the first move. The lavender one had a look that just screamed 'Tell me everything.' honestly it scared me. And finally, the dragon had a look of fear and uncertainty. Being the gentleman I am I went to introduce myself.

"What's up? Names Joe who might you be?" A simple enough introduction, not too long not too short but just right.

The first one to regain their senses was Twilight who introduced everyone for me. "Hello, good sir my name is Twilight Sparkle. This is my brother Shining Armour." The guy just snorts at me after his introduction. " And this is my number one assistant Spike." Spike just pokes his head out from behind Twilight and quickly waves at me before retreating back behind her. " and I would like to extend to you a fair welcome to Equestria. "

"Thank you for rolling out the welcome mat Twilight and Spike you don't have to hide from me I'm not going to harm you." I thanked and reassured at least two of the three that was meeting me, but Shining still held that glare. So I decided to do something about it. "Alright dude what's with the death glare? Is it that you're sizing me up or are you mad that I'm better looking?" That got everyone except for Shining to laugh at my low blow.

"First off I'm staring at your weapons and whether or not you'll use them against us. And second I'm wondering how exactly you know the Princess?"

"Shining there is no need for- I raised my hand to stop Celestia from defending me while keeping my eyes on the prick.

" To answer your first concern, the weapon on my back won't harm a fly without the magazine. "I said while tossing him the magazine which he caught in his magic. " And as for how I know the Princess, my family has known about her and this world since she came to my ancestor Arminius and gave him a gift that would benefit both mine and this world. So you questioning me about why and what I'm doing here is like questioning where to take a leak, the bathroom or the fountain in a public park." It looked like my rant was pissing him off, but in the animal kingdom, you have to show who the alpha is.

While Shining was trying his best not to rugby tackle me Celestia decided it was time to intervene before blood was spilled. "Alright enough. Shining could you please go and make sure everything is set for the festival tomorrow." With a silent huff, Shining left to do what he was ordered. "Well with that out of the way, Twilight regarding the letter you sent me I believe Joe should go with you to help with the preparations in ponyville, this will also give Joe an excellent opportunity to see our land."

"An excellent idea, this will give me a chance to get to know these two better." I agreed while pointing at Twilight and Spike. "So how are we getting there?"

My answer came in the form of a chariot pulled by two pegasi, seriously I saw a train on our way to our destination. The irony of ponies pulling other ponies was either lost or dismissed by my travel companions as we headed towards ponyville, but I figured this was the daily routine for them so I let it be. Twilight seemed to be fixed on Nightmare moon and her return. I would have told her the details but Celestia told me that I was just to assist but Twilight has to figure it out. Since we were an hour away from touchdown I decided to pull out my Avengers comic with Deadpool assisting. This did not escape the eyes of the young drake who wanted to read it when I was done while Twilight just rolled her eyes. Halfway through explaining who each character is to Spike, our destination was in sight. "Target in sight, prep landing gear and assume landing positions," I yelled out to the two grunts pulling us, much to their annoyance and Twilight's embarrassment. When we landed I quickly jumped out with a roll while the other two just stepped down. "Alright area secured at ease."

" Joe please stop that you're making a scene. " Twilight yelled in frustration. "Okay let's just get through this checklist so I can back to work." While she was going over the list with Spike, I looked at our surroundings. The place we were sent was a quiet peaceful-looking town with german styled houses with thatch roofs. After a quick look around, I saw a pink, very pink, earth pony walking towards us. The pink pony stopped in front of us and Spike was trying to get Twilight to be friendly.

"Come on Twi at least give it a shot."

With a huff of defeat, Twilight turned to the local and said. "Hello." After that the pink pony she let out a huge gasp that lifted her off the ground and then she was off.

As we processed the event that just happened, I verbally shared my thoughts with the others in my best Cajun accent. "Ohhh, des place gun be fun."
