Yo, What's up people? I'm here, writing my first MLP FanFic! I honestly don't have anything to say, so...

Enjoy the first chapter!


Chapter 1: Unexpected Events

Ryan's POV

I grumbled as the alarm clock buzzed in my ear. "Mmmph.…stupid… fucking…. clock…" I put all my effort into moving my hand over the snooze button, and let it fall to silence the irritating noise. I then proceeded to pull the covers over my head to block out the sun shining into my room. Why the hell were my curtains open? I shut them every night. Ugh… Who cares… too… tired… I'm going back to bed…

"TIME TO WAKE UP!" Oh god. Why is my mom trying to get me up this early? There's nothing going on this morning… at least I'm pretty sure there isn't. It's hard to keep track of my schedule with all the things going on lately…

"Meeehhhh… Go away… I want to sleep… It's Saturday…" I heard her walking closer. She better not do what I think she's gonna do…

"Come on! I'm getting you up early every weekend now, because you need to get used to doing it all the time. You have too much trouble waking up on the weekdays, so this might help. Now I'll give you to the count of three. One… Two…" Ugh. Fine.

"I'm going; don't take the covers off me!" It's always freezing in my room, more so in the morning, so this is the worst thing she can threaten me with. I sat up, stretching a bit, and rubbing my eyes to adjust to the light. Dragging myself out of bed, I pulled the covers around me and walked over to my dresser. I usually take a shower first, but I had taken one the night before. Looking in the mirror, I saw the face of a tired 15 year old. I had a large mess of shaggy brown hair on my head, as well as light brown eyes. I wasn't too tall, but I wasn't that short either. Basically, I was your average teenager. After getting dressed, I went downstairs to grab something to eat. I hadn't had much food last night, and my body hated me for it. Rummaging through the fridge, I managed to come up with a chocolate chip muffin. Yum. I pretty much ate the entire thing in one bite, satisfying my hunger for a while. Not really knowing what to do with my day, I went and sat on the sofa to relax. The week was hectic enough, and I like to take advantage of the time I had for myself to do nothing. Little did I know, my life was about to become A LOT more complicated…

Twilight's POV

"Well, Ms. Sparkle?" I sat there, almost paralyzed by the nervousness that was running though my body. The four professors stood there, looking at me in a very intimidating way. They expected me to hatch a DRAGON EGG. What do I do?! Trying my best not to completely panic, I took a few steps back from the egg. Come on Twilight, you can do this. You can do this… Ok. Close your eyes and focus. Concentrate. Even with all my willpower, nothing but a few sparks came out of my horn. I tried again, but nothing happened at all this time. Looking up towards the teachers, I could see that they were losing their patience. One of them looked at her watch. "We don't have all day." I had to do something, and fast! I tried over and over again, but to no avail. Even when it finally seemed like I had done it, it ended in nothing but another failure. Ready to give up, I sighed, and looked up at the professors.

"I'm sorry I wasted your time…" I closed my eyes in shame. I heard them writing things on their clipboards using magic. Just as I went to get up and leave, I as startled by a loud boom that came from outside. I felt a great power surfacing, and my horn started glowing. A bright beam of light was sent towards the egg, causing it to hatch. Before I could get the chance to be excited, I completely lost control of my magic. I couldn't really tell what was going on, only that there was quite a bit of chaos being created. I couldn't do anything to stop what was going on, only release all of the magic that was stored inside of me. Suddenly, I felt a hoof being placed on my shoulder. Turning my head, I was shocked to see Princess Celestia standing right behind me! The flow of magic was somehow cut off at that point, and I was honestly glad. All the chaos that I had created was fixed.

"Twilight Sparkle!" I was worried all over again. I had just caused a bunch of trouble for all the ponies present. Eying the roof, I also saw a large hole. I'm pretty sure that wasn't here when I came in… I prepared to apologize, but was cut off. "You have a very special gift! I don't think I've ever come across a unicorn with your raw abilities!" I was in shock at the praise she was giving me.

"Huh?" She continued on.

"But you need to learn to tame these abilities through focused study."

"HUH?"

"Twilight Sparkle, I'd like to make you my own personal protégé here at the school!" WHAT?!

"HUH?!" She looked at me with a smile.

"Well?" I turned to look at my parent's reactions to all this. They nodded their heads furiously, astonished at what the Princess had offered me.

"YEEEEEESSSS!" I jumped a few feet in the air out of excitement. She laughed and put her hoof up to get my attention.

"One more thing, Twilight." I was confused at what she was saying.

"More?!" Gravity took its effect, and I fell to the ground, a little dazed. I saw her point to my flank, and I was suddenly even more excited.

"My cutie mark!" It was a large pink star, with little white stars surrounding it. I jumped up, and hopped around in circles, happier than I had ever been. "Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!" I couldn't believe all the amazing things that had happened to me today. My parents started laughing at my reaction.

"Hey, wait a minute. Who is that?" I stopped hopping for a second to see what the professors were looking at. Lying on the floor, in the corner of the room, there was a colt. Although I couldn't really get a good look at him, I was pretty sure he wasn't moving. Did… did I do that…? The worry spread thought the room. "Oh Celestia, is he alright?!" One of the teachers trotted over to him, and felt his chest with his hoof.

"He's OK… just unconscious." A sigh of relief was shared between everypony. I moved a little closer to him. The first thing I noticed was that he was a unicorn. He had a peach colored coat, with a shaggy brown mane. He was wearing a red jacket with a hood on it, as well as a pair of blue pants. He looked about a year or two older than me. He was definitely knocked out cold. I had no idea how that had happened, but I hope it wasn't my magic. This wasn't my major concern though. I know that he wasn't here before I had hatched the egg, and I hadn't seen anypony else come in afterwards. So… where DID he come from?


"How long do you think until he wakes up?" It had been about an hour since the strange colt had appeared, and we had taken him back to our house. He was still unconscious, so he'd been put into one of our spare beds. I honestly felt responsible for him, mostly because it was probably my outburst of magic that knocked him out in the first place. I insisted that I be there to apologize when he woke up. My mother looked at me and sighed.

"I don't know Twilight… Hopefully soon, so we can get this whole mess sorted out." She wasn't that happy that I had forced her to do this. She was also concerned for his wellbeing, as anypony would be, but she didn't see the reason that we had to take him back to the house. Looking back into the guest room, I saw him lying there. The clothes he was wearing when we'd found him were folded and placed on the dresser. They had been removed to check if he had any injuries, but he was perfectly healthy, save for a bump on his head. His cutie mark was what intrigued me the most. I would definitely have to ask him about that later. Lost in my thoughts, I almost didn't hear the rustling coming from his bed.

"Ugh… My head hurts something FIERCE. What happened…?" He was rubbing his head with his hoof. I was about to say hello, but he continued talking to himself. "Wait… What happened to my hand…?" He looked down at himself. His eyes opened to the size of plates. "What happened to ME?!" He looked up to finally notice me and my mother standing there. It seemed as a good a time as any to introduce myself.

"Hello! My name is Twilight Sparkle! What's your name?" He stared at me in shock.

"B-but that's not p-possible…!" He then had a revelation of some sort. His face reddened. "WHERE ARE MY CLOTHES. GIVE ME MY CLOTHES NOW." He seemed really embarrassed about something, thought I didn't know what it was. My mother simply obliged to his request. "Now please, leave the room for a moment… please?" I was confused.

"Why? And why are you being so bossy?" He closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"Look, I'm just in a little bit of shock at the moment. Can you just… please leave the room for about a minute? Please?" My mom looked at me.

"Come on Twilight. Do as the poor colt says. He's probably just trying to process what happened." She started shoving me out of the room. Before closing the door, she took a quick look back inside.

"Just call out to us when you're ready for us to come back in, OK?

"Sure. Thank you."

Ryan's POV

Twilight's mother closed the door. Well, that just happened. I just met Twilight Sparkle. A fictional, multicolored, magical pony (Eheh, I MIGHT be a SLIGHT brony…). I'm a now colt. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?! This kind of stuff happens in FanFiction, not real life! I looked down at the clothes that she had brought over to the bed. It was my red hoodie, a white t-shirt, and a pair of jeans. They were the clothes that I had been wearing before taking my nap, but they had been changed in size to fit me better. Struggling a bit, I fit them onto myself. As I did this, I noticed something that shocked me quite a bit. On my flank, was Twilight's cutie mark! What was even stranger was that it was only on one side, and not the other. My train of thought was disrupted by a knocking on the door.

"Are you almost done in there?" It was Twilight.

"Yeah, you can come in now!" They walked in slowly, and sat down on one of the couches. Twilight looked at me.

"So, now that you've had some time to think, do you think we could get your name?" Ooh, this is a good opportunity to do something I've wanted to do for a while; change my name. It's not that I don't like my name; it's just kind of boring…

"Sure! My name is Leonidas Craft, though I'd prefer you call me Leo." She nodded.

"Now that we've been formally introduced, would you mind answering a few questions?" Oh boy, questioning time. This should be fun trying to explain where I came from…

"I guess you have the right to do that, seeing as I appeared out of nowhere, heh…"

"Yeah, that would be the first thing we're wondering. Where DID you come from?" Here we go…

"What if I told you that I came from a different universe where ponies can't talk, and magic doesn't exist? To top it off, I'm not even a pony." I think that I heard their jaws hit the floor. Twilight just started stuttering, trying to comprehend what I had just told her.

"What? Wait, WHAT?" I figured that I'd blow their minds a bit more.

"Also, I know all about this world, and will happen in the future, because you and everybody else here is from a television show that I watch. A television show is like a visual story on a piece of glass, by the way." Twilight just fell over from information overload. Her mother just laughed nervously.

"You're kidding, right? This is just a joke! Heh, heh…" She saw my serious expression. "You aren't joking, are you?" I shook my head. She closed her eyes and muttered under her breath. "Oh sweet Celestia, what have we gotten ourselves into…" Looking back at me, she asked me another question. "Ok, let's just move on from that question, at least for the time being. Second question: How do you have the same cutie mark as my daughter? No two ponies should be able to have the same cutie mark." Ah, they must have seen it when they took my clothes off.

"I honestly don't know, partly due to the fact that I just became a pony today. I was just confused as you are. Actually, I have a question for you. Is it possible for a pony to only have a cutie mark on one side of their body? Because I notice that you have one on both sides, while I do not."

"No, before you or Twilight, It has never happened before." My eyes widened.

"Wait, did you say Twilight only has her cutie mark on one of her flanks?!" She nodded, and gestured to Twilight. She did a full 360, and there appeared to only be one cutie mark. "Well, that's different than how the story goes…" Twilight's mother was about to say something else, but somebody else barged into the room, who I guessed was Twilight's father. He was levitating a scroll in the air with his magic. He walked over to me.

"Apparently, this is for you." He levitated it over to me, and dropped it on the bed. I tried to pick it up with my hooves, but this proved to be a much tougher task than sliding on a t-shirt and pants. After failing to do so quite a few times, I looked back to Twilight's father.

"Heh, it's a long story… Would you mind…?" I nodded my head at the letter. He got the message, and brought it up in front of me where I could see it. I read it out loud.

"Hello, this is Princess Celestia. I would like you to come and meet me at the castle, there are a few things I would like to discuss with you. I hope to see you soon." I looked up at them. "That's what it says." I can't say that I'm really surprised that she wants to speak with me. The ponies just looked at me in shock.

"The princess wants to speak with you?!" I shrugged.

"Well, I'm a mysterious colt who appeared out of mid-air, and also has the same cutie mark as the most powerful unicorn to ever grace Equestria with her presence. I'd think she's probably a little curious, don't you think so?" Twilight blushed a little.

"I wouldn't say most powerful…" My god she was cute. I guess everything looked cute when it was cartoony though…

"Well, I guess that we'd better get going…" They all looked at me funny.

"What do you mean, we?" I chuckled.

"Heh, do you think that I have any idea of how to get to the castle?" Twilight's mother looked at the ground.

"Right, should have thought of that…" She looked back up at me. "But why do we have to be the ones to take you to her?"

"Because I'm pretty sure that little Twilight here feels quite a bit guilty about zapping me out of my life, and bringing me here in the first place."

"Eep!" Twilight looked a little embarrassed. "H-He's right… I want to help him, because I'm probably the one who caused all this…" Her mother rubbed her head with her hoof.

"Ok, fine. We'll bring you to the castle…" I nodded.

"Thank you for your assistance." I tried to get out of the bed and stand up. The moment of truth. Will I be able to walk on four legs? I collapsed to the floor. The answer isss… no. Sheepishly, I looked up at the ponies staring at me. "Eheh, a little help please?"


"Hello, Mr. Mysterious. Would you be so kind as to tell me your name, and perhaps a bit about yourself?" I was currently standing in the throne room, along with Princess Celestia. Twilight's family had helped me learn to walk on four legs, so that I didn't look like a bumbling buffoon walking around town. I had met Twilight's brother, Shining Armor, and he was a cool guy. The group of us had made our way to the castle. We were stopped by the royal guards at the entrance, but after showing them the letter that the Princess had sent me, they let us through. When we had finally made it to where Celestia was residing, she asked the others to wait outside for a short while, wanting a little privacy. Now, I was focusing on the matters at hand. I kind of thought that I should tell Celestia my real name, just in case she could see through my lies.

"No problem. My name is Ryan Rendace. Don't tell the others, because I told them that my name was Leonidas Craft. I don't really like my name that much, so I figured this would be a good time to change it. I come from the planet called earth, which I'm pretty sure is located on a different plane of reality than Equestria is. I am not a pony, but a member of a species called humans." She nodded.

"I thought that you seemed a bit different…" She wasn't that surprised, but I guess that she's seen some even crazier stuff in her long lifetime.

"Do you know how I could have gotten here? I don't really understand that much about magic." She thought for a moment.

"Since you appeared after Twilight's chaotic magic, I would have to say that is the cause." I was still confused.

"But didn't everything that Twilight cause get fixed after her stream of magic was stopped?" She looked at me suspiciously.

"How did you know that? I haven't said anything about it." I sighed, and explained about the whole 'Knowing the future' thing to her. She still wasn't surprised. I admire her ability to keep composure with all of the crazy things I was telling her.

"Anyway, can you answer my original question?"

"Even though the chaos that Twilight's magic caused was reversed, you might know from what you've told me that there was still a very big hole in the roof. That's because her magic only caused the baby dragon to grow. It didn't directly cause the hole. The same thing applies to you. I would have to guess that in the midst of all that was going on, an interdimensional portal opened up that you just happened to fall through. Her magic didn't CAUSE you to get here, it only opened the portal. When the magic was reversed, the portal closed, leaving you stuck here. As to why you became a pony, I have no idea."

"So what should I do now? Is there any way to get me back home?" She shook her head.

"The magic that was used to bring you here wasn't any spell that I know of, so I don't know if there's any way to open another portal." Well, that's a bit depressing. I don't know if I am really OK with the idea of staying here forever. I don't exactly love my life back on earth, but I'm not exactly ready to give it up. "I was actually wondering something… What would you say to becoming my personal student, along with Twilight?" I wasn't expecting that. At all.

"ME?" She nodded. "But… why?"

"I can sense a very powerful magical aura emanating off of you. Since it doesn't look like you'll be leaving Equestria anytime soon, you need to learn how to control it. Also, considering you have the same cutie mark as Twilight, I would have to guess that your special talent is magic." Hmm… she's probably right… I sighed.

"I accept your offer." She smiled.

"I'm glad. Now, where will you be staying?" Oh. I hadn't really thought about that when I had agreed… "If you want, I can arrange for you to stay with Twilight." I nodded.

"Yes, that sounds good." We talked for about fifteen more minutes. I told her about some of the things in my world. She found much of it quite interesting. Once we were done speaking, she accompanied me out of the room, where Twilight and her family were waiting. They bowed when the Princess entered the room. She looked at Twilight.

"Twilight, I'd like to meet your fellow student." Her eyes widened.

"HUH?!"
