A Story inspired by various MLP IRL videos, and the story of my OC. Note, any similarities to other stories like this or real life people are completely coincidental. Also this main character's human name is not mine, or the life he has.

Also note that this is my first fanfic story to be told in first person.

The year is 2019 in a small town in Canada. Where in Canada, you might ask? That will be up to interpretation.

But back to the story. There is one person in this town who might not seem that important at first, but soon his life will change. That person is...me

That young adult walking around the town is me, Andy.

Description: Black hair, tan skin, and brown eyes. He wore a red hoodie, blue jeans, and grey shoes.

I was on my way home from work, feeling quite tired. You see, I started working full time as a clerk at my local Best Buy after moving out of my parents' house. Although recently, I've been going through some rough times. About a week ago, my girlfriend, Janna and I split due to a job opportunity out of town that she had been seeking. I was devastated, and all the work I was doing made me question the decisions I've made. I have yet to tell Mom and Dad about it, though I'm in no rush at all. But there was something that always gave me joy no matter what happened to me; filmmaking and watching cartoons. You see, I'm an aspiring filmmaker, and I wanted to make a living out of it since I was a kid. However, inconsistent pay days and taxes have kept me from going anywhere with this goal. As for cartoons, you're about to find out.

As I opened the front door to my home, I took my hoodie off, revealing a black t-shirt with a picture of Twilight Sparkle.

That's right, I'm a brony. I don't think an explanation is needed.

"Another day, another dollar…..and migraine," I said as I hung my hoodie and walked up to my bedroom.

My room was full of movie posters, and collectables. Many cartoons had stuck with me over the years; Spongebob, Gravity Falls, Adventure Time, and most important in this case; My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

For years, MLP has brought me joy. The characters felt so compelling, the animation and storytelling so well done. There was something about it that was different from cartoons from my younger years. I felt like I had connected with these characters. I felt like they were my friends, despite how cheezie or even childish it sounded in my head. The show had concluded its eighth season a few months ago, and while I was mixed on the season as a whole, I still had fun.

However, I was worried. I had heard nearly a year ago that the next season could be its last. When the show ends, I'm gonna feel like I lost an entire group of friends.

I laid on my bed, exhausted, like I could just lie there and never get up. I looked at my phone to check the time, which had a picture of me and Janna from my birthday a few months back. Looking at it just made me feel worse.

I heard knocking, but just assumed it was only wind. But then the doorbell rang, so I had no choice but to get out of bed. But to avoid embarrassment, I quickly swapped out my shirt with a plain black one.

The doorbell continued to ring as I made my way downstairs, "Yeah, yeah, I'm coming," I said, tired and uninterested, "I swear if your another one of those pranksters, I'm calling the cops."

I opened the door, and it was just my friend, Fred.

Description: Brown hair, tan skin, glasses, turtle neck shirt, sweat pants

"Hey Andy," Fred said with a grin on his face.

I sighed as was not in the mood, "What do you want, Fred?"

"I was just wondering if you wanted to go out tonight," Fred said, somehow unaware of my disinterest.

"Dude, I we've been over this, I don't drink," I tell him, "Besides, I haven't been feeling too good recently."

"Let me guess, It's about Janna?" Fred guessed.

"No! …..Well yes," I answered honestly despite not being okay with it, "Although it's mostly about work."

"I feel ya," Fred responded, "But it's Friday. Now is the perfect time to relax!"

I knew it would come off as rude, but I had to tell him, "I was relaxing, but then you showed up."

"Come on, man, don't be like that," Fred told me before I slammed the door in his face. I did not at all have the will to leave the house tonight.

Fred was about to knock on my door again, but then something on his shoulder. It was a raindrop. He saw how dark the clouds were and immediately ran off to avoid getting soaked.

I noticed the sounds of the pouring rain, but didn't care. I closed all the blinds as I didn't want anyone to see me. Yeah, my friendship with Fred is a bit….rough. You'd think as a guy who watches a show about friendship, I would be quick to hang out with friends as much as possible. But no. Fred was just a guy who was around me and nothing more.

Feeling hungry, I walked to my kitchen and checked in the fridge for something. I managed to save a slice of pizza from the other night. I decided to watch an MLP episode on Netflix, but as soon as the episode was starting, the doorbell rang again.

"Fred, I swear to God!" I said as I approached the door. But when I opened it, it was a UPS guy. Knowing that he probably heard me, I blushed from awkwardness.

"I'm sorry, did I come at a bad time?" The UPS guy asked.

"What? No, just thought you were someone else," I tried to explain but then told, "But what are you doing here?"

"Are you Andrew Bickle?" The UPS guy asked.

"It's 'Andy', but yes," I answered, "Although, I don't remember ordering anything recently."

"Well, this package is from your parents," UPS guy told me as he gave me a box.

I was a bit confused by the shape of the box, "Really? If my parents were mailing me something, they would have texted me about it."

The UPS guy just left the package on my doorstep, "Hey, I just deliver," he told me as he walked back to his truck.

So I took the package inside and placed it on a table in my bedroom. I grabbed a scissor to cut the tape that was keeping it shut, then the box started shaking. I was a bit scared as I thought at that moment that it was a small animal and I accidentally hurt it with the scissor.

But then out of the box came a strange glowing orb which left a trail of light when it moved. I got down on the ground, thinking that it was going to hurt me.

Then it went inside of the mirror on my dresser and caused it to change colours on its own. I was confused as anyone would be in this kind of situation. I took a closer look at my mirror and realized something about its new look.

"Purple with diamonds?" I thought to myself, "Where have I seen this before?"

I go to my DVD shelf and try to jog my memory. But then I noticed my DVD copy of My Little Pony: Equestria Girls and took it out of the shelf. I looked at the cover and looked back at the mirror. The two looked exactly the same.

I then started laughing at myself from how silly it sounded, "Now I know I've been watching too many cartoons," This had to be a just a coincidence. And as questionable as what that package was, why would my parents send something like this to me? The only people in my life that know I'm a brony are my college friends.

But my curiosity got the best of me as I approached the mirror again. I was about to touch it until I heard the doorbell ring AGAIN. I jumped from surprise and my whole arm went inside.

"What the hell?!" The rest of me got sucked in on it's/my own.

And this time it was Fred again at the door, "Andy, you still there?" of course by that point, I was gone.

I felt like my head was spinning as I saw streaks of purple, blue, green, yellow, etc.

I was slowly losing consciousness.

When I woke up, I was somewhere else, "What happened last night?"

I looked around and found myself in what looked like a purple library.

"Strange, this looks a lot like Princess Twilight's library," I said, but then I realised what I said.

"Wait, can I be?" I wondered as I looked down at my hands, but they weren't hands, they were….hoofs.

I saw a mirror in front of me, and I was a pony. So what was my reaction? I literally screamed like a girl, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

My scream echoed throughout the castle.

To be continued.
