It was a good two hours before everyone would believe us. And even after Twi, Alex and I wasted a good half-hour on the rest of the real Mane 6, even their faces still showed doubt. The other five humans tried to contribute, but even their points confounded them. And by the time we were through, questions were already pouring out of them. I won't go into details, but it was dark out by the time we were done and just about everypony was exhausted. Walter was the first to change the subject. "Has anypony seen Spike around?"

We heard a voice coming from the upstairs room. "Sorry guys, I was just taking a nap." Yeah, right. All of us knew right off the bat he was lying.

"Spike, we know you're lying. You've been evesdropping, haven't you?" Twi spoke up.

"Okay, fine. You got me there. But shouldn't you guys be doing something to fix this mess?"

"Come down here first, then we can sort things out."

Spike wandered down the steps of Twi's staircase until his poor little green eyes met one of the wierdest things any of us had probably ever seen: Two sets of the Mane 6 and me. His words after that almost made me laugh. "Wow. Two Raritys?"

A couple of us humans laughed before suddenly realizing the situation was serious. "Well, are you going to help or what?" Twi said.

"Um, right. Well, as said by these guys, er, girls, we should probably go see what's going on in the barn." And just as though our prayers had been answered, (LOL not.) we all jumped at the sound of an explosion and the sight of a bizzare cloud formation over Sweet Apple Acres out of the library window.

"C'mon! We can't just wait here!" Bill chimed in.

Everypony raced out the door to find that the cloud formation was really compiled ash. Even worse. As we neared the barn, it looked fine. It would have been completely fine with all of us if it weren't for the fact that a creepy (and loud) whoohing noise was coming from the inside. A brave Applejack bucked open the door to find that the entire inside of the barn was a massive vortex of black and purple, and nopony approved of that. Especially Applejack, who kept gawking at it.

But before we could figure out what to do from here, we heard an all too familiar voice behind us. "Have fun." And just like that, all fourteen of us were sucked into the vortex and all was black. Now I know what you're thinking. Discord. Eeyup, he pushed us in, and now we're swirling in the interdimensional portal between Earth and Equestria. But something happened that made all of us question his plan, or what we thought it was. He came with us.

It wasn't until we found ourselves all in a swirling blue tube similar to the one in the intro for Doctor Who that we noticed he was in there with us. "Hello again!"

"Discord! What are you doing in here? What the hell is even going on here?" I found myself speaking up.

"Listen to me! We have a few minutes in here before we get to Earth, so I might as well explain to you what's going on."

"So you aren't trying to kill us?"

"Don't get crazy ideas! I never actually hurt anypony! Anyway, let me explain the reason you're in here. It's Hasbro. I used to work for them a couple of years back when FiM was in development."

"A couple of years? Hasbro? So you are a human... But you were have supposed to be imprisoned for thousands of years!"

"Time works differently here! Ever read the Chronicles of Narnia?"

He got me there. Narnia was a fictional place where time was percieved much faster, so that the characters of the story could be gone for years and neither their parents or siblings would have noticed a minute of it. This was all making sense, and maybe a little too much so. "Yeah I have. What's your point?"

"TV stations and animators are really hired by the government to explore alternate dimensions, and document their findings. The more interesting ones make it to the public disguised as comedy. Twisted, if you ask me. I was one of the luckier ones to be sent to a more friendly environment. Unfortunatley, I modified the world to the point where people became afraid of me, then eventually terrified. To pacify them I had to create new characters to defeat me, and those were Princess Celestia and Luna. They turned me to stone for about four thousand years until the Mane 6 showed up. I didn't create them, they were perfectly natural. I knew they would defeat me, so I had to put off time to expiriment more, so that's where that dilusional maze came from. That's when I discovered that TV studios are really ripping apart our universe, and it has to be stopped. So I brought in you, and the link between Earth and Equestria slowly turned into this wormhole that we're in now. Make sense?"

Everypony was astounded by Discord's story, and not one of us knew how to respond. Eventually a timid Fluttershy stepped in. "So... You're a good guy?"

"Now, I don't quite know about that, but right now, I am fighting for a legit cause."

None of us knew how to respond to that, so Applejack stepped in. "Hold on, everypony! Here we go!"

We could all see that the wormhole was ending, and we still had no idea what to expect from this. Suddenly, the end of the tunnel stopped, and all fifteen of us were tossed into the portal. And a couple of loud, dark seconds later, we found ourselves thrown into the living room of a small house, which later turned out to be Bill's. On our backs. It hurt.

I raised my head, and to my sort-of-surprise, all of us had turned into humans. I could only trust that us real humans were in our own bodies. Remembering how to stand as a human, I quickly got to my feet. "Is everyp... I mean, is everybody okay?" I heard muffled curses emerge from the heap of people in response.

"What happened?" A voice that sounded like RD said. She stood up to find that she was now a scrawny teen girl with orange hair and a tomboyish face. Surpringly enough, she had clothes. And she freaked out. "GAH!!! WHAT IS THIS?!?"

My response? "You. A human." She took it surprisingly cool under the circumstnces. She took a quick survey of the room, which looked like a lodge. There was a nice stone fireplace on one wall, where the opposite wall had an arch leading to another room. I was honestly surprised that they could stand up, let alone walk, which is what RD did shortly after the rest of us got up and examined ourselves. I had the idea for everyone to stand up and state who they were. Applejack was a highly freckled, stout girl, which I would have guessed, Rarity was a chubby, pale girl with a slightly snooty-looking face (which I honestly laughed at), Twilight and Fluttershy both were nerdy looking scrawny girls with fairly long brown hair, while Pinkie Pie... Who we found hiding away below us... well, she was still herself. She soon found everyone staring at her. Discord spoke up first, who by the way, looked like a stereotypical businessman with a bald head and one of those 'professional' faces on all the time. "How are you not human?!"

"Well, I didn't want to be a human, now did I?"

I had no idea if her breaking the fourth wall this time would help us or break us. But, she was proof that it had happened, so that could help us. It was certainly interesting to see a pony compared to a human side-by-side, mainly because there was a drastic height (and color) difference. She was only about three feet tall. And naturally, I, again, was the one to break the awkward silence.

"Can... we continue?" It must have been weird for the other humans to find out that the person that was telling them what to do all this time (me) was a scrawny teenage boy with fairly long brown hair (still me). And as it turns out, Alex was a teenager that looked a lot like me, except blonde hair. Steph looked like the stereotypical diner waiter with her curly black hair. Walter was a scruffy, but not short man that looked like a lumberjack, Jackie (honestly) looked like a hippie (no further comments, except that she didn't act like it at all), and Francine was a bubbly African-American lady (OMGLOLWUT). And what I thought was the funniest part was that Bill looked like a younger version of Bill from Left 4 dead. I made no comment.

"Well, what now?" And sure enough, nobody knew what to do. The other six humans and Spike (who was a short, lean cute latino boy (WTF) with short, dusty hair and a round face, BTW) seemed relieved of that. I had no idea what any of the Mane 6 could do here pertaining to their abilities in Equestria, so I asked them to give it a shot. I had another WTF moment, officialy making this the craziest couple of days in my entire life. Bill, Jackie, Dash and Fluttershy still had their wings. Intead of being small and sleek, they were surprisingly large and feathery to be coming out of their backs. Of couse, human physics is much different than Equestrian physics, so they probably couldn't fly nearly as fast, but that's going to come in an insane amount of usefulness. If we ever find out what to do. And Steph, Alex, Rarity and Twi could still use magic, to my surprise. They found themselves easily moving objects around the room. However, Francine and Pinkie's 'pinkie sense' didn't work at all and Discord could't do nearly as much as he could before. I tried to conjure some electricity to my hands and soon found myself looking like a mage in Skyrim. Still friggin' badass. But still... You'd be surprised at how fast one gets used to the surprises of magic.

Although I was confused about why we could still use magic and wings, I didn't question it. We were going to need it, no doubt. I still wanted to know what we were going to do from here... "Discord. What now?"

"Um, could you turn off those... hands of yours? You're kind of freaking me out." I looked down to find that my hands were still sparking with blue lightning.

"Oh... yeah. Sorry." I said as I shut off the power to my arms. "So, seriously. Where do we go from here?"

"Right. I may need to have some thinking time before I can plan this out, but I know that we need to destroy or at least disable the machine that's opening up these wormholes." I was interested to know if Twilight had done any research on this area of space-time physics.

"Yo, Twi! Do you recall learning about this stuff?

"It's not just stuff, but yes I have. I got a lesson a couple of months back from the princess... *GASP* WAIT A MINUTE! Did she know about this beforehand? Did you?" She raised a hand at Discord.

And Discord, being the sly little mother hubbard he is, said "Yes. I sublinimaly altered Celestia's thought process to give you the 'wrong' lesson and foreshadow you on what could be next. But you didn't bring that to concern, didn't you?"

"Not really... But altering the princess' thoughts? You're more powerful in magic than I expected..."

"Yeah, well you didn't seem to think much of it when you used the Elements of Harmony, now did you? You could have killed somepony with that, and I'm sure as hell that you could have done a lot more damage than just turning me into a stupid statue. Well, I suppose your intentions with it weren't to harm, so I'm safe there."

"But who origionaly made the Elements of Harmony?"

"I did, along with making the two princesses. I knew that Alicorns were powerful, but they would need something else to help."

"So you made the origional Alicorns. What the hay now."

"Well, I did make the two most powerful, but Alicorns actually occur naturally. You see, breeding works very wierdly in Equestria. Because there are three different outcomes on what the breed of pony can be, there are three different chromosones..." He continued screwing with our heads using genetic science until our heads were about ready to explode. I can wrap up what he said in a nutshell, though. Alicorns are a rare output of a male unicorn and a female pegasus. There.

"Wow... I had no idea." Twilight seemed rather dumbfounded, which in return made me feel rather smart.

"Of course you didn't, dear. I never told you."

It was around this time that I had only eaten twice since this entire ordeal started. "Hey Bill. Yah got food? Ahm stavin'..." Well, there's my inner Applejack.

"Uh, yeh. Wait right here guys." Bill wandered over into the next (far less crowded) room, that was supposedly the kitchen. And about twenty minutes later of Twilight and Discord pointlessly arguing, Bill eventually came back out with a huge pot of pasta. "Come and get it! Bowls are on the counter in the kitchen." Us humans welcomed the food, but the ponies were reluctant on finding an appetite for the stuff. Even Pinkie Pie, who eats human food all the time. She said it looked too... noodly for her. Well, guess who made up a word today.

After all of us chowed down (and liked it, I should add), we tried to get Discord to talk about his plans for the next few days. His response was to train ourselves for the next few days and to try to get to know eachother. He didn't seem interested in what we were doing, so the rest of us just went into the other room to discuss what to do.

"Alright everypo- I mean everyone, we need to split into groups to find out what we can and cannot do here." Twi said with a strict tone. Since everyone knew that she was the best at magic and group leading, nobody had a problem with her being our temporary 'leader'. After a few short minutes of conversing and arguing, we split up into groups outside depending on what type of pony we were in Equestria. So I got stuck in a group with Steph, Alex, Twi, Rarity, and Spike. Not that I'm complaining or anything.

"Well. Does anyone know where we can train?" Rarity spoke up. This is about the time that I wondered if I could still use my internal phone. You'd expect someoneone to go insane with that kind of knowledge, but it was nice to be able to look up things only when I wanted. In response to Rarity's request. I launched up Google Earth (like a baws, I might add) and instantly found a small, uninhabited valley adjacent to where we were. Ended up just east of where we were now.

"Alrighty then, I just found a small valley just east of here. Uninhabited. How's that sound?"

"Fine with me. It's dark out though... How do we get around?" Steph asked. It was a bizarre moment after she said that that both Twilight and I made our own means of unnaturaly bright light. She flashed up her hands (which looked surprisingly like flashlights built into her palms), which were now glowing, while I re-sparked my hands up. There was a couple muffled laughs afterwards, and just like that, our point had been made.

We started east out the back door, with me leading and Twi in the back of us. Finding direction was fairly easy, mainly because most phones are directly connected to sattelites, and because I pretty much am a phone right now, you can see where that'll go. I can explain it as this: When I want to pull up something, a mental overlay above my eyes happens, so I can see it, but nobody else can. That reminded me... I hadn't used the real-time communication on my phone since I was in Arizona. Which legitimatly felt like a week, even though it was really three days. I tried pulling up Facebook first, but then regretted it right away and pulled up Youtube instead realizing that I was probably being searched for. I hadn't seen anyone that I actually knew in... Well, on Earth, just about a day. I went over to the Upload page to see what I could do there... And supposedly, I could actually upload my memories. And it wasn't until I accidentaly did that that I found that out. Long story short, I immediatly erased that sucker. Going back to reality, I was surprised to find out that no time had actually passed. So I guess I can't mentally call anyone after all. Can't tell if good or bad... Or friggin' awesome.

Still realizing that I was in Bill's grassy back yard, I saw a brick wall that seperated the yard and a mountain, which had the valley at the other side. I realized that I had an opporitunity to show Rarity, Twi, and Spike a little of my own skillset. I lived in a very dense neighborhood, so the only shortcuts that we knew about were the ones over fences and walls. "Watch this. Just a useful trick to getting around as a human that you should know... It's called freerunning. Essentially getting from point A to point B in the fastest, most boss-like way possible on foot. Taught me some stuff, like this." I started running towards the brick fence in front of us as Twi and Rarity looked on in worry. Spike was egging me on, and the two humans didn't seem to care at all.

It wasn't until just before I started to jump the wall that something absolutley insane happened. Now I've had some crazy rushes and adrenalin surges before, but this was an exception. Mainly because both of my legs exploded in a fury of sparks as I soared up and over the wall, without swinging my legs over as I usually did while jumping crazy things. It wasn't I nearly crashed into a mound of dirt that I had realized wht had even happened. That certainly must have been a spectacle for the bystanders, seeing a human launch himself up and over an eight foot fence without touching it.

"HAH!! DID ANYONE SEE THAT? That TOTALLY wasn't what I mean't to do, BUT WHO THE HELL CARES! THAT WAS FRIGGIN' AWESOME!!" I guess I noticed my legs were still flowing with power, so I tried to do it again as I jumped back over the wall, again with a little too much ease. This time I ended up on the roof of Bill's house on accident with a loud crash. I found everyone in my group staring up at me with a rather dumbfounded look on their face. Rarity was the first to respond to that one.

"What the... How is that even possible?"

"Who cares. If he can teach us how to do that, we'll be useful as hell." Alex replied.

I leapt down from the roof and let out a small wave of sparks that fried the nearby Twilight. Although I was shocked by what I had done (dammit, no pun to see here), Twi was the one to respond with an impressed tone of voice. "Wow... Well, you're one to pick up on magic like no other."

I smirked and replied with a smartass "I know." I still love magic. More so now, though.
