Prologue
As I was done watching all of Gen. 4 of MLP on Netflix up to season 7 I was thinking about all the Fanfics where someone goes to Equestria like A Journey Beyond Sanity, I'm A Pony, Death to nightmare, and A wish come true. I wished it would happen to me, sure I would miss my family and they would miss me but there wasn't really anything holding me here. As I was drifting to sleep I felt something akin to a presence.
Throughout my dream I saw many different scenes from many different shows and movies I liked. Including the house of Steven Universe, the Bullpen of NCIS headquarters, the great hall of Hogwarts, the Firehouse of the original Ghostbusters, the Cinese restaurant of the 2016 Ghostbusters, Bricksburg from The Lego Movie, and a few more. When I woke up I had a splitting headache.
"Are you felling well, I found you after you fell." I heard a voice ask. I struggled to sit up as my whole body was sore and felt off. "You shouldn't stress yourself, let me get some cream from the shelf."
It was then that I realized that the voice sounded vaguely familiar. I was finally able to open my eyes and then I found out why the voice sounded familiar. I couldn't believe my eyes at who was taking care of me, all I could do was stare in shock. "When I found you, you were entangled in flora, my name Is Zecora. I don't mean to sound like an old dame, but what is your name?" I was shocked but told her my name was Kayden.
We talked for a while and I ended up telling Zecora that I was human, though I have no idea why. When I told her she was surprised but not overly so. She explained that all beings in Equestria were in some way or another magical and the most common trait was sense.
When I looked at her puzzled she explained that my 'aura' was different from everypony else's. She then remembered that when she found me there was a bag nearby and gave it to me. When I looked inside I saw a bunch of stuff I didn't expect, pretty much all my stuff was there with a lot of stuff I wanted too, and that was just in the first few pouches.
From what she told me I was able to deduce that this was a month before the Summer Sun Celebration. She told me to stay overnight so she could keep an eye on my wounds. When morning came she saw that I was healed a lot faster then she thought, but she said I was all healed. She offered to let me stay with her for as long as I needed. I accepted.
While I was exploring my bag I found that I could go into it and that each pouch became a room, and all the rooms were labeled, too which I gave a victorious shout. While in the main room of my bag I found a note that said the vault room was for a house and groceries until I got a job.
I told Zecora I was going out for a bit but she stopped me. "It would be wise to put on a disguise." she told me, I then remembered how they acted to her in Bridle Gossip and that I was a Changeling. I thought for a moment before deciding on one of my OC's. Cake Filling he had a white coat with pastel blue colored mane, tail, and eyes with a three layer light blue cake cutie mark, and was a unicorn. She nodded her approval and warned me about the Poison Joke.
When I got out of the forest I was on the path to Ponyville. When I walked into town there were a few buildings I recognized like Town hall, the Spa, Sugarcube Corner, and Rarity's Boutique. As I made my way to Town hall I heard a gasp and felt a rush of wind. 'Well there goes Pinkie Pie.'
As I got to Town hall I walked up to Raven Inkwell-the Mayor's secretary-and asked to speak with Mayor Mare. When she asked what about I told her I was looking to move into Ponyville, she sent me in a short while after.
"Oh, a new face, welcome to Ponyville, what can I do for you?" She asked with a smile.
"Thank you for seeing me Madame Mayor, I was looking to buy a house here in Ponyville and was hoping that you had one for sale." I told her.
"Yes, I do believe we have two vacancies at the moment, The Golden Oak Library and a house next to the local bakery Sugarcube Corner, which would you like?" She told me the two options and I immediatly knew which one to take.
Ten minutes later I was walking out of Town Hall with the deed and key to the house next to Sugarcube Corner. I knew that Pinkie would have everything set up by the time I got back from Zecora's. I started my trek back to Zecora's.
When I got back to her hut I dropped the disguise and told her that I was able to get a house. She congratulated me and said she would miss having someone to talk to. I gave her a friendly hug and told her I would visit weekly. By the time I was leaving it was already almost sundown so I had to hurry.
Despite the forest not scaring me to much during the day, I did not want to be in hear at night. What with Manny Roar the manticore, the Cockatrice, and who knew what else. When I got inside my house I noticed that it was unnaturally dark and smirked to myself. The light's turned on and I heard a chorus of "SURPRISE".
After everyone was done saying surprise the pink mare herself came bouncing up to me. When she got to me I put a hoof on her mouth before she could speak and said "Let me guess, you were walking through town when you saw me and then you went *GASP* and rushed off to get this party set up because you've never seen me before and if you've never seen me before then that must mean I'm new because you know everypony and I mean everypony in Ponyville and if I'm new then that must mean I don't have any friends and that made you so sad so you threw together this party for me and now I have lots and lots of new friends," then after a pause,"no I was not surprised but you made a good effort, and your names are Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Fluttershy." By the time I was done talking and pointing everyone out her eyes had shrunk to the size of pinpricks and the other girls had their jaws dropped in shock over what I just said.
I took my hoof off her mouth with a smirk, after a few minutes I grew nervous as she just stared at me, by this time the others had snapped out of their shock. I heard Rarity say "I-I think you broke her darling."
Pinkie then rushed up and put her face in mine and asked excitedly "How did you know that, are you psychic!"
"Eh heh-heh," Was my nervous reply. "let's not dwell on that right now, let's get back to the party." I told her nervously with a toothy grin.
"Okie-dokie-lokie!" she responded, but not without giving me a look that said we would talk about it later. I asked them to stay after the party was over.
After everyone else left Rarity spoke up. "You asked us to stay, Cake?"
"I don't mean to bother you girls but, do you think you could help me unpack?" I asked them to which they agreed. "Great, just stay out of the rooms labeled Electronics, Memories, Vault, and Pets. At the word 'pets' Fluttershy's eyes lit up.
After I told them that they gave me a bit of a puzzled look. I simply pointed to my bag, that got me even more puzzled looks except from Pinkie. I then opened the flap on my bag and jumped into it. I heard several gasps. "Come on down." I called. With all their extra help I was done unpacking in an hour. After we were done unpacking they all went home. We discussed many thing and I answered Pinkie's question. "I am psychic in a sense." I put my hoof down on answering any questions they had.
In the morning I went to Sugarcube Corner and asked for a job. Mrs. Cake told me that there was a part time position. I accepted the offer. She asked me if I had a specialty to which I told her I was particularly good at decorating and giving sweets great filling/butter cream frosting, I'm pretty good with Fondant too. She was delighted to hear the fondant part as she soon told me that neither she, her husband nor Pinkie were very good at fondant.
After I was done there I went to Rarity's to see If I could help her with her outfits. When I got there I went inside and heard a younger voice call out. "Just a second." After a minute I saw a little white filly walk out of another room.
"Hello there little filly, I'm looking for Rarity do you know where she is?" I asked her, I decided to not freak to many ponies out by interrupting them and guessing what they're going to say, when knowing full well what they were going to say.
"Sure follow me," Sweetie Belle told me. "I'm Sweetie Belle by the way, what's your name?" Sweetie asked as she led me to what I presumed to be Rarity's work/inspiration room.
"My name's Cake Filling, Do you live here Sweetie Belle?" I asked the little marshmallow filly.
"Yep, Rarity's my big sister." She replied with a happy squeak. When we got to Rarity's workroom Sweetie called out. "Rarity, there's somepony here to see you." After she said that the door was surrounded by a wavy light blue aura and opened.
"Who is it?" she asked the filly.
"He said his name was Cake Filling," Sweetie responded.
"Tell him I'll be down in a moment." Rarity told the little white filly.
"Actually Rarity, Sweetie Belle brought me up." I told the marshmallow mare. She froze and rushed out off the room and slammed the door behind her.
"Cake, how wonderful of you to stop by, did you need something?" She asked me, though she seemed a bit nervous.
"I could come back later if this is a bad time." I said to her as I turned to leave.
"NO, I-I I mean it's not a bat t-time at all." She told me, but I wasn't convinced, though I stayed anyway. "Now what did you need?"
"I wanted to ask if you were looking for hired help?" After I told her the reason for my appearance she brightened up.
"Oh, how wonderful of you to ask, Cake!" Rarity exclaimed and led me back downstairs. "Do you have any experience with sewing?" She asked as she led me to her storage room.
"Minimal with sewing, but I am very good at the color aspect." I told her. "I took a home ec class in school that taught me the basics, I was able to pick out the best color combination in that class as well as all my art classes."
"Wonderful, so all I have to do is teach you how to follow the sewing patterns." She said to herself. As we continued talking about this stuff and my past I thought to myself 'today was a good day'.
