Hello there loyal readers and welcome to my very first My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Fan-Made Novel story. This story was mostly inspired by the youtube videos done by StormXF3 and No1c00l, check out their videos, you'll love them and you'll see where my inspiration came from. That and I've been wanting to write up a fan-made novel story for quite a while now.
For the timeline, this story takes place in between episodes 8 and 9 of Season 5, however a later Season 5 character will be shown cause when I started writing chapter 7, I had just seen that episode and I wanted to include that character in here. Now, I won't say anymore about the story as I would just spoil it, however if you guys really like it, I will consider writing a sequel for next year. Also note that if you have any constructive cristism that could help me with future stories, don't be afraid to write it down.

Friendship Through the Worlds
Chapter 1: Twilight & Friends
As you sit in your seat and read this story, I want you to think on the following questions. Do you often think on the friendships you made throughout your lifetime? Do you think about your best friend from the age of eight and wonder where that person is? As I have learned over the years, friendships come and friendships go. In this world, I've seen good friends turn into enemies and other friends who don't see each other after their last meet. Friendships are also affected by travel plans as a person moves from where they come from to a place far away.
When I started off, I didn't have any friends until I was in the third grade. Jeff, Lisa, Connor, Patrick and Ryan were my pals for life and we always stood together, fighting off bullies if we had to and playing sports games when we got the chance. We also worked together on assignments and had study groups together. Yes, we were unseperatable.
Yet years later, another elementary school opened up and my pals moved off to that school while I stayed at my old school. I stayed there for two years before finally joining them at the other school. We became the unseperate group once more, but only for one year. In High school, we seperated once more. Ryan and Patrick joined me in the Catholic High School while the others went to a public school. The three of us remained as buddies, but soon we seperated again as I moved to New Liskeard in Northern Ontario, Patrick moved to Edmonton and Ryan remained in Toronto.
Now I'm at the age of twenty five and many of the friendships I once had are gone while others are just far away from me. But I'm not alone in that department, as I continue to see friendships fall apart all around me. If Friendship is magic, then I'd say it's run out a long time ago. Or so I thought until the day I met someone who knows a great deal about friendships.
My name is Matthew and this is my story of meeting those My Little Ponies.
It was a typical summer's day in New Liskeard, I had just come back from the local Wal-Mart store after getting some more items for my collections. Anyways, I entered into my house and heard...nothing. My little cat was fast asleep and my parents were living far off from me, so there's no one to greet me as I come in. I sighed deeply, kicked off my shoes and walked over to the living room to watch some television. As I turned it on, there was the TV show 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'. Now I know what you're thinking, that's a girl's show. Well in all fairness, it's a good show and men can watch it too. Besides, it's got good animation, voices, music and all that stuff.
The mane 6 are just some of my favourite characters, but probably the best one of them all is Twilight Sparkle, the princess of Friendship. I couldn't explain why, but I always did like Twilight Sparkle. Sometimes I wished she was real, then maybe I could talk to her about some of my problems, but then I snap back to reality and remember it's just a television show and she's not real.
On this night, the network was showing the season 5 opener where they faced off aganist Starlight Glimmer for the first time.
"Honestly, she's too much like Sunset Shimmer's old dark self," I thought to myself. "Still, they'll beat her, they always do."
I was feeling rather hungry at that moment, so I got up, went to the kitchen and whipped up some spagetti with tomato sauce. I soon finished and was about to watch another episode of My Little Pony when I heard the phone ring. I walked away from the kitchen table and went to answer the phone.
"Hello, Matthew speaking."
"Hey Matt, long time no hear," said the voice on the other end.
"Patrick? Is that really you?"
"Of course it's me buddy, and I'm not alone, Ryan's here with me. I returned to Toronto just a few days ago and now we're coming up to see you, hope you're okay with that."
"Of course it's okay with me, you guys are always welcome up here. Will it just be you two though?"
"No, Ryan's girlfriend Emily will be with us as well, is that okay?"
"Yeah it's fine, I'm looking forward to seeing you all."
"Alright buddy, see you tomorrow."
With the phone call over, I hung up and went back to the table to eat my supper. I looked up to the screen and gasped as it started to glow. Right away, I thought something was wrong with it, even though it was only two years old. I went over to turn it off when the light turned into an explosion and blew me across the room. I bashed into a wall and was knocked out cold.
"Is he going to be okay?" a timid voice asked. "He flew quite a distance."
"What is he anyways?" another voice asked, "I've never seen a creature quite like him before."
I thought I hit my head so hard that I was hearing voices. I groaned as I slowly got up, but I felt something press up aganist my right shoulder and slowly push me back.
"It's better if you stay still, you hit your head pretty hard there when you flew," said a third voice. Then she cried out, "Pinkie, don't eat that, it's his dinner!"
"Sorry!" cried a fourth voice.
I groaned yet again and rubbed the back of my head. Thankfully I wasn't bleeding back there, but I still felt banged up. Finally my focus came back into play and what do you think I first see when that happened? I see Twilight Sparkle standing there in front of me.
"Yeah, I hit my head pretty hard, I swear I'm seeing ponies outside the TV Screen," I groaned to myself.
I slowly got up, walked down the hallway to the washroom and splashed my face with water. I took one look in the mirror and said to myself; "they are not real, don't kid yourself."
A shout came from down the hallway, "hey Pinkie, don't eat that! You don't know where it's been."
"Rarity, it's just food, like what we have back in Equestria."
"Yep, I'm still delusional," I thought to myself. I continued to spray myself with water until I had enough. Finally I returned to the kitchen and found no one there, apart from my cat. "Finally, back to my senses."
I sat down and started eating my dinner, when all of the sudden, my orange cat Bridget got up and started hissing at something underneath the table.
"What is it girl? What are you hissing at?"
Bridget continued to hiss, and then jumped underneath the table. Moments later, there came a yelp and a blue pony with a rainbow mane popped out from under the table.
"Hey Seriously! Cut That Out!"
I jumped out of my chair in complete shock, I couldn't believe my eyes. There, flying in my house, was Rainbow Dash, one of the Mane 6, and the fastest flyer in all of Equestria. As I stepped back, I accidently stepped on the tail of the Fashion Pony herself; Rarity, who was hiding under my sink, but forgot to tuck in her tail.
"What the heck? This can't be real, you can't be real! I've offically gone nuts, yeah that's it."
"Did someone mention nuts?" shierked another voice. I turned around and saw Pinkie Pie, the party pony, standing there.
Applejack, the hard working earth pony of Sweet Apple Acres, came out of her hiding spot next, sighing deeply, "Pinkie, you weren't suppose to let him know we were still here. You were suppose to remain hidden."
"Opps sorry, my bad."
She then realised what she did, "uh whoops."
I silently counted them, there were only four, there were still two hidden. I sighed deeply and called out, "you can come out now. I know you two are hiding."
A purple pony entered the kitchen first, followed by a yellow pegasus. The purple one was Princess Twilight Sparkle and the yellow one was Fluttershy, a kind and timid pony.
"Yep, I've offically lost it. They always said this day would come, and now it's here."
Twilight Sparkle walked up to me, "I know this may seem strange to you Sir, but we are for real, but we meant you no harm when we came. The explosion was purely by accident. You're not hurt, are you?"
"No, I'm fine, but how do I know this is for real and not in my head?"
"I think you proved that we're real when you stepped on my tail Darling," snapped Rarity.
Twilight held out her hoof and looked up at me. I knew what she wanted me to do. I held out my hand and gently grabbed her hoof. Her hoof felt so real. I was stunned and surprised, this was definetly not in my head at all, this was for real and the mane 6 were actually in my home. But why?
"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm..."
"Twilight Sparkle."
"Yes, but how did you know my name?"
I pointed to the television screen and the ponies gasped, for they could see their homeworld; Equestria. They could see other ponies, except for themselves.
"How is this possible Sugarcubes?" asked Applejack, "why are we here and not there?"
"It's Starlight, she did this," said Twilight.
"Starlight. As in Starlight Glimmer, the unicorn that once tried to take your cutie marks?"
They all looked at me surprised. "Well yes, it is that Starlight Glimmer, but how did you know that? And how do you know who we are?"
"You're part of a TV Show, it's kind of like a story from a book, only you get to see the story being told on a screen," I explained, knowing full well that Equestria doesn't have televisions. "I often watch you six along with the other ponies, so I know a great deal about you, and the enemies you face back in Equestria."
"Okay, I guess I understand," said Rainbow Dash, still rather confused. In fact, five of the six were still confused, but not Twilight Sparkle. For I knew she and her assistant Spike the Dragon had travelled to another human world where they met human counterparts of their pony friends and had seen technology similar to the tech in my world. "Yet, we know nothing about you."
"Well the name is Matthew, but you can call me Matt for short."
"Okay Matt for Short," cheered Pinkie Pie as she bounced about.
"Uh, actually it's just Matt," I said, rolling my eyes. This is something Pinkie would normally do. In fact you say 'call me Silly', and she'll call you Silly. "Anyways, why don't you tell me of what actually happened before you got here."
We all gathered in the living room and sat around in a circle with Twilight Sparkle in the middle.
"A short while ago, we were in my castle when the magical map showed us there was a town with a friendship problem. All of our cutie marks were shown above that spot, so we got on board the train and went to the town. The scene was horrible, ponies were without their cutie marks, but this time, they were being enslaved by Starlight Glimmer. We confronted her and chased her into the mountains, after telling the villagers how to get their cutie marks back of course. Anyways, we soon had her cornered, but she wouldn't go down easily. We fought our hardest aganist her and for a moment, it almost looked like we were going to win, that's when she said it; 'If I can't beat you here, then I'll just take you out of your comfort zone'. She unleashed a powerful blast that blinded us and made us vanish from the town and reappear in your living room."
"This does bring up the obvious question Darling," Rarity pointed out, "do you think Starlight Glimmer was absorbed by the blast as well?"
"It's hard to tell, I can't sense her anywhere near here. It's possible she was sent to a different world, but I'm not sure."
"Well good ridence then," snorted Rainbow Dash, "I've had enough with that Starlight Glimmer, she's been a royal pain in our necks since the day we met her."
"I have to agree with the last part Sugarcube," said Applejack, "but we don't know if she went to another world or if she's actually here."
"Oh please, if anypony can find Starlight Glimmer, it's Twilight!"
"Uh Rainbow, have you forgotten that we only learned about what Starlight was up to when we arrived at the town? I can't track her from that far of a distance. Applejack's right, she could be anywhere on this world, and she could be our only ticket back home."
The ponies went silent after that, they knew Twilight was right, "we never really thought of that," said Rarity. "So I guess we got to start looking for her again."
"Alright, come on everypony, let's go!" shouted Rainbow Dash.
And they charged to the door. I ran ahead of them and blocked them, "are you crazy? You can't just go out there in a world full of humans! They will want to capture you and use you as lab experiments! Either that or kill you."
"Oh my, that sounds horrible," whimpered Fluttershy.
"Plus too, there's more to this world than what you see here. If you want to find Starlight Glimmer, then you're going have to trust me and stay here."
"Forget it, I'm not sticking around here!" snapped Rainbow Dash and took off for the other door.
She didn't reach it though as something grabbed her and dragged her back to the group. Twilight had used her magic to bring Rainbow Dash back, "oh yes you're going to stick around! Matthew's right, we know nothing about this world, I vote we stay with him until we come up with some way of finding Starlight Glimmer and getting home. I won't have her hurt any of the humans on this world, we're going to find her and we're going to stop her." She then turned to me, "I promise you that we won't let her hurt you or any other humans."
"It's a Pinkie Promise! Even though Twilight said it!" shouted Pinkie Pie as she bounced up and down again. How she's able to bounce about I'll never know.
"And where I ask you Sir are we going to sleep?"
"Well Rarity, I do have spare bedrooms, normally used for guests, you six can use them."
"Thank you," Twilight bowed to me in respect, "you are a gentlecolt, uh gentleman Matthew."
And with that, the ponies set off to find rooms to sleep in. I sighed and went back to my spot at the kitchen table. Of course by now, my dinner was rather cold, so I had to heat it up before I could eat it.
I just shook my head and looked down to the ground, what began as a normal night with the promise of seeing my old friends again, turned into one of the craziest nights of my life and truth be told, I still wasn't sure if I had gone crazy. If I hadn't, then I knew I had a job to do, protect the ponies from the outside world, but how would I be able to protect them from Starlight Glimmer if she ever showed up?
