The Portal to Equestria: Reloaded
Chapter 4
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI woke up the next morning and yawned.
"Oh man, it's morning already?" I said to nobody In particular.
"Oh well, I best get up and start moving. I don't want to sleep through my first full day as a normal human."
I got out of Dash's bed and stood on the cloud floor. It was harder than the bed.
"How is this harder then the bed? They are both made out of clouds, so shouldn't they both be soft and fluffy?" I wondered to myself.
"Speaking of which, how can I even stand on these?" I pondered my question for a bit.
"Twilight must have cast a spell on me." I deduced.
I decided to leave the matter of the feel of clouds un-answered, because frankly I didn't care anymore.
"I wonder where Dash is."
I looked around the room and in a few moments I had found a note on Dash's bedside table.
"Dear Drew,
I tried to get you up, but you wouldn't wake up. I promised Derpy that I would help her with her mail rounds today. Anyway, I'm going to be awhile, so just make yourself at home!
Love,
Dash"
"Well that answers that question."
I decided against going back to bed and instead shuffled over to the bedroom door.
I opened it and stumbled backwards in surprise.
"This is beautiful." I mused.
The room was very large and a certain glow about it. There was a coffee table and two couches surrounding it, one in front and one on the right. The couch in front of the coffee table was facing a medium sized flat screen T.V. sitting upon a table with two cabinets under it. A little bit to the left of the T.V. was a fireplace and there was another couch in front of it.
"I might as well see what things Dash has to watch." I thought to myself.
Upon looking closer at the two cabinets, I saw that they both had labels on them. The left cabinet's label said "DVD's and DVD Player" and the right cabinet's label said "Video Games and Consoles", I decided to look at the DVD's and opened the corresponding cabinet.
"Wow, this sure is a ton of DVD's." I mumbled to myself as I shuffled through the assorted bunch of DVD's.
I got to the back of the cabinet and found a lone DVD, it was the only one to have a blank case.
"I wonder what this could be." I thought to myself.
I opened the case and found proof of something that I had be wondering about ever since I got to Equestria.
"My Little Human: Friendship is Magic." I read the title of the DVD aloud to myself.
I thought about watching the DVD right then and there, but then I decided against it.
"I'm gonna watch this with the others." I said out loud.
I heard a grunt in agreement and immediately turned around to confront whatever was in the room with me. All I saw was a turtle laying on the couch.
"Oh, its just you Tank." I said with a sigh of relief.
I sat on the floor for a minute, then scooted over to the other cabinet. I laid the interesting DVD down on the floor and then opened the cabinet.
"Well, I'll be damned!" I muttered to myself.
Dash had a ton of game systems that I had back on earth. The only difference being the name of the consoles. Like instead of Dreamcast it was called Ponycast, instead of NES it was called PES, and so on.
I decided to try out "Sonic Adventure" on the Ponycast, luckily for me it was already hooked up to the tv. I looked around on the game system for a power button, I couldn't find one anywhere. I did manage to find what I assumed to be a headset type of thing. I saw that it had a power button on the side of it.
"Hmm, I wonder what this is for..." I thought aloud.
Then something finally clicked in my brain.
"Wait didn't we have something like this back on earth?" I thought hard to try and remember.
"Oh yea! It was a prototype thing that companies were working on to make it so people could control electronics with their mind!"
I put on the headset and pressed the power button.
"Welcome to your new Ponycast wireless controller. Please say "Connect to Ponycast" to start." The headset said in a robotic voice, it sounded like Dash's voice, but I just thought of that as a coincidence.
"Connect to Ponycast."
"Connection Successful. Would you like to power on the the console?"
"Yes."
"Booting up Ponycast."
The T.V. screen flashed and it automatically started up Sonic Adventure.
"How do I play the game?" I thought to myself.
"Think Start." the headset answered.
"Start" I thought.
The game actually reacted as if I had pushed the start button.
"This is gonna be sweet." I said aloud.
The rest of the game acted the same way that the start screen did, all I had to do was think the controls and the game complied to my thoughts.
"Just what do you think your doing with my stuff?"
I instantly stopped what I was doing and turned around to see who it was.
As soon as I laid my eyes upon who it was, I immediately froze in place.
It was Dash.
"Oh crap." I thought to myself.
"Oh Crap is not a correct command, please try something else." the headset replied.
Oh, how I still hate that headset.
THIS IS A QUESTION
Alright so you all keep saying to add more depth and stuff, but I really don't know how. Could you all please explain to me what you mean? If it helps, you can take a passage that I didn't do to well on and edit it to show me what you all mean. Thank you for your time guys. Btw, this is not meant to be one of those 'comment now' things, I really just want help so I can make this story a more enjoyable experience for you all.
