Chapter 1
"Well this was expected," grumbled Jon as he dragged himself to his car after a long, exhausting night of no sleep. Jon was a fairly normal 19-year-old human male. He did average at school and acted rather polite and dressed quite well, both a bit unusual for his age. He was 6 feet in height and around 150 pounds. He wasn't very materialistic and didn't have a full time job, but his part time job would get him by. "I wish I could just have a fresh start" Jon said slowly breaking into tears as he drove off to school. Under fulfillment of success had been Jon's problem as a child, he was never satisfied with the work he would put out but was always too depressed to be able to motivate himself more, and his medication had stopped doing their job a long time ago. He was having his normal inner conflicts with himself as a car sped passed him as he looked at it go by he could have sworn he saw a bumper sticker that said "Be Careful what you wish for, for it may come true." "Well that's a bit odd," he said to no one but shrugged it off as the car had been going quite fast and his eyes could have been deceiving him. As he sunk into the driver's seat while taking in the sweet,melodic sounds of the music he was listening to, possibly the only thing that he found a true passion for, he began to day dream of himself all alone on a gigantic stage playing music for the thousands. "Someday I'll get there…" he said as he slowly drifted from the daydream and focused his eyes back to the road.
-Meanwhile in Canterlot-
"Do you think he saw the message?" asked a royal blue alicorn to a taller, white alicorn sitting next to her. "Only time will tell" said the white alicorn, "Only time will tell…"
-Later, Back on Earth-
As Jon pulled into his driveway, he sighed, "Only 10 minutes late" he said with a touch of nervousness in his voice. "SO WHERE WERE YOU?" screamed a voice, as Jon shut the door, "here we go" he thought to himself, sighing as he walked into the living room. "I was at school dear," Jon said quickly wiping the frown off his face. "Until 10:10?" the voice yelled back, "Yes dear, today is my late day and it is quite windy out" Jon said shakily, "You didn't talk to that bitch did you?" the voice said angrily, "No dear" said Jon quietly as he remembered his best friend who he was forced to give up or risk losing his girlfriend. "Good. Now be a dear and fetch me some wine?" the voice said with a very fake cute tone to it. "Yes dear" Jon said as he smiled as he set his phone on the coffee table in front of him and went to get a bottle of wine for his mate. He placed a cup and the rest of the bottle of wine on the table and kissed his mate on the cheek and said "I'm going to bed sweetheart, I'm really tired from school, don't stay up too late" he said as he turned into their bedroom and shut the door, hoping for some sleep tonight. "WHAT THE FUCK DID I SAY JON?" screamed Jon's mate, Vanessa as she slammed the door open, Jon sat up from his sleep groggily. "What? What time is it?" he groaned as he rubbed his eyes, the clock next to him read 1:32. "What is it sweeth-" "Oh cut the bullshit!" Vanessa half-slurred, half-shouted as she stumbled over to the bed. "LOOK AT WHAT I FOUND!" she screamed shoving his phone in his face, the screen was opened to a picture of Jon and his best friend Abby. "Why are you looking through my phone?" he said as he looked at the picture, "and what's wrong? That is just me and Abby from summer camp a few years back?" "You know I hate her!" Vanessa yelled at him. "You know what? Get out!" she yelled getting mere centimeters from his face. "What?" Jon said sitting on the edge on the bed. "I SAID GET OUT!" she yelled at him, he was left with no options it appeared so he complied with what she said and began to get dressed. "I should have known" she said watching him slip on his shoes. Jon wished that Vanessa would be more understanding sometimes but that was how she was and he knew she could get out of hand. "AND DON'T COME BACK!" she yelled throwing his phone at him as he trudged through the wind and down the steps, the phone smashed against the ground and he sighed as he kept walking forward. He found his way to the bus stop and laid down, not sure what to do, he looked up at the stars "At least it's a clear night out" he said. "Oh wow! A shooting star!" he said sitting up. "I wish I could just start over somewhere, somewhere far from here…" He said trailing off. As soon as he finished his sentence rain began to fall gradually picking up into monsoon like conditions. "Not quite what I wished for but…but…but" he looked straight up to where a dark, looming cloud had formed. " O-Oh my…" He said stuttering at the terrifying sight above him. "Wish for it, and it shall be granted" said a woman's voice from above. The last thing Jon saw as he fainted down on to the bench was a bright white flash and then the ground-rattling crack of thunder.
