"Will, do you think you could maybe explain some of the 'technology' around the house?" Twilight asked as I was sitting on the couch reading my book on dimensional travel.
I closed the book and spoke up, "Sure, since it'd be helpful," I said standing up and stretching.
I walked to the center of the room, "Up there's a light," I said pointing up.
"I know what I light is," She giggled.
I blushed a little, "Oh, really? Good. Well, I'm sure Rainbow could help you with either the TV or laptop, but like I told her, the only thing allowed on the computer are the games, like Team Fortress 3 and Solitare. Anything you can find in the Start Menu. Anyway, next is the kitchen appliances," I said turning around to face her. I only found her on the couch reading my book, "Twilight," I groaned.
"What? I knew the only way I'd get you away from this book is to distract you. I'm already done with the novel you gave me, and the entire Harry Potter series from your bookshelf."
"What about the book on Greek Mythology?" I said picking it up off the table.
"Oh, that's right! I guess I'll read that next. I guess I was just wondering if you found anything in this book about how we got here."
"All I've found so far is a theory, that isn't very helpful," I said sitting back down next to Fluttershy, who was listening to her iPod and petting her bunny, whom she named Angel.
"What's the theory?" Twilight asked crouching and putting her head on the armrest of the couch.
"Well, I'll quote it how about that?"
"Works for me."
I cleared my throat, "Once a thought, what-if, or alteration, no matter how vauge or descrptive, comes to mind, it becomes it's own, functioning dimension, with it's own course of history and time. And, even though an unorthadox means of doing so is currently undiscovered by humans, travel between these dimensions is possible."
Twilight had a pretty stern look on her face from my description, "I'll have to think about that overnight. Speaking of which, we should turn in. It's getting late," She said looking out the window.
I looked at my watch. 11:42 P.M. She was right. Any thinking to be done, can't be done with low energy. I tapped Fluttershy on the shoulder. She jumped. It appeared she was sleeping.
"What time is it?" She yawned.
"Bed time," I said. Her head fell back and she looked almost to tired to move. I picked her up to take her to my room.
"What are you doing?" She asked in a gentle manner.
"You're too tired to walk to bed. I'll carry you," I said with a warm smile.
"That's really nice of you," She said nuzzling her head into my arm.
"Hey, Will?" Twilight tugged on my shirt, on the way there.
"Yeah?"
"Is she supposed to sleep in my bed?"
"That was the plan. Why?"
"I kind of toss and turn a lot in my sleep," She said blushing a little.
"Oh?" I thought of the options. My bed was the only one that didn't have someone else in it. I didn't know it, but I was blushing. It was the only option I had, since all the beds were queen size, "I guess I can put her somewhere else," I sighed.
"Where?" She asked as I put her down on my bed, "Oooh, okay. Well, good night," She said walking away. I swear I heard a giggle from her.
I walked back out to the living room and picked up Angel. I walked out onto the porch and put him in the cage I got for him. I stood there for a second and looked up at the moon. Seeing the familiar formation that some say look like a dinosaur, I was reminded of God. I may not have a strong religious feel, but I do believe in the big guy, and look up to him every once in a while. I clamped my hands, closed my eyes, and prayed that he could hear me.
"Dear, Lord. I thank you for this wonderful time. Ever since I moved to this new home, I've had only good things happen to me. You have lead my luck, so please, continue to do so, and if possible, give hope for these girls, and let them return to their home. If you're able to hear any of this, please, give me a sign." I looked up to the sky and watched as the moon glistened at me. I saw it sparkle, and a shooting star flew across the night sky. As I was about to head back inside, five sparkles fell from the sky. I thanked the lord and walked inside, a tear in my eye.
Little, did I know those sparkles had something to do with my future. However, that's not important now.
I was the last one awake. AJ and Rainbow went to bed several hours ago and Rarity had fallen asleep, making the tux for Hunter. Pinkie had tuckered herself out with her constant jumping and skipping. Twilight had gone to bed, during my talk with the Lord and Fluttershy had already fallen asleep. As I walked in to my room, Twilight was already wiggling around, and Fluttershy was curled into half a ball under my blanket. I took off my jeans, and for the first time in about ten years put on some pajama bottoms. Walking over to my bed, my heart was beating faster than Sonic the Hedgehog could run. I was not only happy about my previous encounter, but was about to sleep in a bed with an extremely beautiful girl. Granted she was very timid, and was a pony on the inside, for a human on the outside, she was extremely beautiful. I inhaled deeply and got into bed. I faced myself away from her, just so the perverted half of me didn't get any ideas. I quickly drifted off to sleep.
What happened durning my sleep could be debated about what it was. It could have been a nightmare or it could have been a sight into the future. Either way, I didn't like it. It didn't help that it was the most vivid dream, I'd ever had. So vivid, that it could be turned into a novel.
"Well, there it is girls. This is the church, where Hunter is getting married," I said parking the car.
"I can't wait to see Hunter in that develish suit I made him!" Rarity said getting out.
"I'm so happy for him," Fluttershy said as quiet as always.
"Let's get it over with," Rainbow said unenthusiastically.
"Brighten up Rainbow," Twilight said putting a hand on her shoulder.
"But it's going to be so boring! It's not like your brother's wedding!"
"Yer' just upset, 'cause you don't get t' do a Sonic Rainboom," Applejack boasted.
"Exactly!" Rainbow yelled.
"Come on, girls. Hunter said the vows will start at around 5 o' clock. It's five to 5 now!" I said walking in.
"About time!" Hunter said as I ran in.
"You should have warned me earlier, that it was in Central Kalamazoo. You know how long it takes to get to my small town as it is, let alone Kalamazoo!"
"Sorry, that my cell phone doesn't like calling your house, what with you out that far into the woods,"
"Okay you two, knock it off. This is supposed to be a happy day," A voice off to the side said. We looked over and saw Maranda, Hunter's fiancee. I had never met her in person, so considering her appeaence, especially in her wedding dress, I felt a bit jealous. Hunter smiled and walked over to her. The priest walked up to the two.
"It's 5 o' clock. Shall we begin?" He asked in a noticabley German accent.
They both nodded.
Everything went nicely. The audience was seperated by gender. Men in one aisle and women in the other.
Everyone cooed as Hunter put the ring on Maranda's finger, and I, of all people, had a tear roll down my cheek.
"You may kiss the bride," The priest closed his book and nodded to Hunter. Maranda jumped up and touched her lips to Hunter's. I swallowed the happiness for my half-related brother, but then something caught my eye.
Off to my right, there was something shining. It had directed everbody's attention. It was coming from the girls. They were each enveloped in a bright white light and the light was dimming.
"NOO!" I screamed and jumped up. I climbed up on the back of the bench and ran on it like a balance beam, to avoid running into people's feet. The girls were sitting on the far left of their aisle, the closest to the guys, but I was on the very left of the room. I got to the other side and tried to grab Fluttershy, but I was shot back across the center aisle by a bolt of rainbow colored lightning. As I sat there and watched them dissapear, it seemed like an eternity passed. Evenutally, they were gone. The bright light dissapeared with the girls, leaving only their dresses. I got up and limped to them. I fell to my knees and cried into the dresses. A moment later, Hunter was at my side with his hand on my shoulder. I barely even noticed him and continued to cry into the dresses of my closest friends. What caught me off guard was I got a hand on my other shoulder. I looked in their direction, to see a woman my height, that had long flowing hair of green, purple, and blue, in a white gown, eventually she spoke, with the voice of an angel.
"Thank you for your efforts, to help these young girls. I, am Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria. During your time caring for them, I found a way take them back to their dimension. I wish I could have done so, with more warning, but alas, I couldn't. I'm sorry for your loss. I know you've grown attached to them, but they do not belong here. They will miss you as much as you will miss them. Take care of yourself, brave hero," She said as she enveloped herslf in the same light and floated toward the ceiling.
I awoke with Fluttershy trying to awake me by shaking me around. My eyes burst open and she was so glad she wrapped her arms around me with a hug that melted my heart. 'It was just a dream.'
I returned Fluttershy's hug except more tightly, and with a much greater reason. Eventually she tried to break free, but I wouldn't let her.
"Will, is something wrong?" She said wiping a tear from my face.
"I'm just glad your alright. I had a really bad dream, is all," I said crying into the shirt she had on.
"Oh, you poor, thing. It's alright. Nothing bad happened," She said petting my head.
As little as I knew, all the others were in the doorway, crying as well, at the sight of me crying, even Rainbow Dash. As I sat there crying into Fluttershy's stomach, I feared to face the truth that, one day...Hunter's wedding would come, and that there's a chance that dream will come true.
A/N-Yes, I cried trying to write the part of the wedding dream. I'm not that emotionally strong, and it didn't help that I'm writing this about me roughly seven years in the future.
