Okay so this strange pony is my new roommate and to be honest...I rather like it. By that I mean I am not freaking out at the fact that I don't know who my roommate would have been. On a different note the room is actually nice! except for some rouge trash lying around on the ground. She led my to a hallway with three different doors.

"Okay.." Lyra began. " This room is mine..." She pointed to the door on the right. " you are NOT, repeat NOT, allowed in there. kay?" I nod and she points to the left. " That is your room. Used to belong to a friend, but she moved out and that is the bathroom!" She finished as she pointed to the center. I responded in the only way I knew...

"Cool." I mentally face-palmed at my choice of word. She giggled and patted me on my back.

"stupefied huh? Well your room has a closet and bed along with a dresser. So have fun and call if you need anything." With that she left and I began to unpack. I put my clothes away and set up my electronics. Surprisingly this world of ponies had outlets! That mean POWER FOR MY MACHINES!! sorry...I went all Dr.Richtofen there... Anyway after I set up in my room I brought my xbox 360 out and quickly went into the living room to make sure there was a T.V., THANK GOD there was. Okay I'll say it now so you won't ask...YES I AM A GAMER!! I love video games, books, and almost anything that I can use to drown out the worlds sorrows. Besides alcohol and other drugs, thank you very much.

Anyway on with my life. I began to set the xbox up when I heard a ruckus happening outside. I got up, opened the door, and took a look. Outside was another human surprisingly and a slightly beaten pony. Both of which were being stared down by a small group of pegasi. There were 3 in total and all of which had strange...oh what are they?..CUTIE MARKS yeah those. The two that were most noticeable were the two upfront. One had a brown coat with a almost white sandy colored hair. His cutie mark was a dumb bell. The other was a orange-brown coated pony with a brown mane that covered his eyes. His cutie mark was three basket balls.

"Hey hair-less! hand over the freak and we will be on our way." Said the pegasus with a brown coat.

"Yeah! we just wanna talk." The other pony agreed. I look at the human and pony to get a brief look at them.

The pony was a unicorn and had a forest green coat with a well kept brown mane. He was about 3ft 8in his cutie mark is a bow getting a arrow knocked. The human was 5ft 3in tall with a muscular build and rather skinny. He was white and had brown hair with blonde on the tips and some areas of his hair. The pony and human look almost scared with very noticeable hints of anger. The pony was constantly looking around for something while the human was keeping his eyes on the pegasi in front of them. Now I my be a bit of a anti-social hermit, but I HATE bullying. With a angry sigh I went back inside to my room and began to look for the one thing I never thought i'd use. It was a 9 inch Bowie knife my brother gave me as a going away gift. I smiled evilly and grabbed the blade from it's sheath.

I hid the blade behind me and I ran back out side and yelled

" HEY LEAVE THEM ALONE!" Everyone attention was to me. I looked at the pegasi and walked over in between the group of bullies and the two students. I kept the blade hidden as I talked Hoping to reason with them, the blade was really just a insurance policy.

"Look..." I began "...What is going on here? What have these two have done?" I asked as calmly as I could. The pony with the dumb bell cutie mark smirked and walked in front of me.

"Well...that FREAK over there has a cutie mark that isn't right and that human is defending him." He said with spite in his voice. I shook my head and just sighed.

"You...I...My god are you fucking stupid?" I asked. He flinched at my language. " Your harassing a pony because of what his talent is? That is like breaking the neck of a small puppy."

"Yeah well... what do you know your a human!" He retorted.

" Yeah a human with this..." I said pulling the blade out and showing him. Everyone gasped and backed up.

"wh-what a-are you g-going to d-do with that?" He asked.

"Nothing...if you leave them alone and never bug me, him or him again." I said pointing to each of them. They all nodded and ran off. I smirked and mumbled "Heh...ponies...ain't got no back-bone." as I looked to make sure the ponies were gone I saw a small compound bow with a quiver next to it. I went, picked it up, and went over to them to see if they are okay.

"Hey you two alright?" They nodded until the unicorn saw what I was holding.

" YOU FOUND IT! I thought those flank-holes broke it!" He said while taking the bow and quiver from my hands. He inspected it while the man smiled and held out his hand.

"Hey thanks for stepping in there. I thought I was going to have to crack a few skulls. My name is Kevin and this is Spilt arrow." He said as the pony merely gave me a "hey" before going back to his bow. He told me how the pegasi were giving them a hard time and followed them here.

"So we were coming to our dorm here and then those ass holes showed up. And well...you know the rest." I nodded in a apologetic way then got an idea.

" Hey I just set up my xbox wanna come in and relax for a while? You know so those jerks don't find out your dorm number." He thought is over then agreed. I led him to my room which was just one room down from his and showed them the room.

" So welcome to casa de slayer and lyra! make yourself at home while I get ice for your wounds." I finished off with a mock bow and left to gather the stuff.

'huh...bullies. Maybe this world WILL be interesting after all...' I thought as I gathered the medical supplies.
