Ok guys sorry for the delay I haven't been in the best of health for some time now but it looks like I'm in on the mend . So two things you can expect from now on, more frequent updates and longer chapters. Oh and there will be some interesting appearances in certain chapters. So I hope you guys enjoy :D
Peter awoke with a start and began to look around himself.
He was on a street that seemed completely deserted except for two men and a woman walking.
Was it all a dream? If it was then I need to lay off the energy drinks. Peter thought to himself as he got up from the cold concrete floor.
Peter got to his feet at the very second a man bumped into him from behind. As peter turned to face the man his heart nearly exploded inside his chest from rage and fear.
There standing before him was a man he had spent so long searching for, the man who had ruined his life and taken away a person so very dear to his heart. It was then that peter realised where he was.
Only too late…
The man began to run from peter and head towards the two men who were walking up the street, at the same time the old owner of the store came running out through the entrance.
"STOP THAT MAN HE HAS ROBBED ME!" The memories began to rush through peters head like a storm of horror and sorrow as he watched the worst day of his life unfold before him for a second time.
Wait, Parker you absolute IDIOT! Just use your powers and you can stop him! Peter thought to himself. Peter then began to run towards the man and attempted to use his web shooters.
However Peter did not have his web shooters and quickly tried to super jump towards the man, But as he attempted it so simply jumped a pathetically small distance and fell face first to the ground. Peter looked up to see how far away the robber was, only to be met with pure horror.
The man was wrestling to keep his gun in his hand with one of the men who had been walking on the street. A man who Peter knew all too well.
The grey hair, the rounded glasses and the age spots, along with the brown leather jacket and the grey formal pants. There was only one man that it could be.
Peter watched in horror as the criminal freed himself from the old man and aimed straight for his heart.
And fired…
"NOOOOOOOO!" Peter screamed at the top of his lungs before falling to his knees in horror and sadness.
All seemed hopeless, the same feeling he had on the day in question over two years ago.
Peter raised himself off the cold and wet floor and walked slowly towards the elderly man's dying form. He knelt down next to him and held his hand in his, as the blood dripped onto his legs.
Peter began to cry silently, I failed you, I'm so sorry there was nothing I could of done! Peter thought. Peter then began to feel threatened and soon looked around to see the same gunman who had just taken his life from him stand above him and aim straight for his head.
And fired…
Peter awoke screaming as hard as he could, still trying to comprehend what had just happened.
What the hell ? Peter thought to himself as he began to observe his surroundings. He was in a large incredibly beautifully decorated room, lined with golden posts and silver framed paintings of the grandest designs and red silk curtains covering most of the windows, except for a large empty doorway that lead to a large balcony, where the sun's light could be seen glowing brightly.
Peter then gulped and prepared himself as he got out of the king sized bed he had been sleeping on and trotted over to the gold adorned mirror.
He swallowed one last time and looked at himself in the mirror.
There looking back was… A pony, He had a white coat of fur that shined in the light of the room and a brown mane and tail, His eyes were a beautiful hazel as were the bottom of his hooves, He then noticed something rather odd, apart from the obvious.
On his side by his flank there was a tattoo of some sort, this would seem pretty cool normally to Peter, however the tattoo made him panic when he realised that it was a tattoo of his Spider symbol on his costume.
Crap what am I going to do? Should I jump out of the window or run out of the door? "That will not be necessary Mr Parker," Said a strong yet soothing feminine voice from behind Peter.
Peter turned to see who had spoken only to be met with the princess he had talked to before he had passed out from shock. Being in a strange place Peter didn't know what to do but this princess was royalty so he did the only obvious thing that came to his mind and bowed lowly to the floor.
"Please Mr Parker you do not have to be so formal especially when you are not even from these lands," Peter had a few questions that needed answering but he didn't want to start an argument with a princess that he assumed had highly trained guards outside the room.
"Forgive me princess Celtia was it ?" Peter asked. "It is princess Celestia Mr parker and I understand you have some questions?" "Yes but first things first how do you know my name?" "Well Mr Parker being the ruler of a kingdom for more than five thousand years has given me some certain powers, which include being able to read minds, and yes Mr Parker you heard me right, I said five thousand years,"
Peter began to put the pieces together in his head and came to a realisation. I'm talking to an immortal princess who happens to be a strangely beautiful looking horse and that can also read minds and from what I remember hearing earlier, can also use magic…If Deadpool was here he would fit right in, Oh crap she can read minds Parker and you just called her beautiful in your head, DAMN IT YOU DID IT AGAIN SHUT UP!
Princess Celestia began to giggle as he looked at Peter, "Thank you for the lovely comment Mr Parker but I assume you would like to know why you are here and why you are a pony? She asked. "Yes that would be great please, and please your highness, call me Peter.
She gestured towards two large chairs in the middle of the room and a table between them on which sat a bowl of grass and mixed fruits. Both sat down upon the chairs which caused peter great discomfort until he was showed how to sit comfortably in his new body.
"Now then Peter, I would like to be as much of a help to you as I can be as I would imagine you are perhaps a little scared right now, but you need not worry you are perfectly safe here, Equestria is a peaceful land Peter and Everypony here is equal, So please ask away what questions you might have," Peter didn't need to thing he already had the questions who needed answering in his head. "Ok princess Celestia, how exactly did I get here from New York and where exactly is here?" "Unfortunately Peter that is a question I cannot answer, for I have asked my top adviser on the matter and he simply cannot fathom how you got here, and trust me if he cannot figure it out then it is a serious matter, but I want you to rest assured that I will try everything in my power to discover how you have been brought to us. Now then to answer your second question this is Equestria as you already know and to this question I have an answer,"
Peter was slowly awaiting the response in anticipation, "This is a separate plain of existence from your own Peter, a completely different realm, here magic exists and there has been no fighting or wars for over six thousand years."
Peter tried to take in what he had just heard and slowly slid back in his chair, he decided to ask another question that he feared the answer to. "How do I get home?" When peter asked this question the princess's face turned from one of kindness to one of sadness and pity and peter knew the answer before it even left her mouth.
"I am very sorry to tell you this Peter but… You can't, I am afraid that I know of no spell powerful or any magic strong enough to open a gateway to another world, I am so so sorry but it seems that for now anyway, you are stuck here,"
Peter didn't even know what to feel at that point, sorrow, anger, sadness, and strangely enough curiosity were the ones he was experiencing at the moment.
"Ok then princess two final questions if I may, what should I do if I am stuck here?" "As it happens Peter I have already arranged for a place to stay for you, It will be in the town of Ponyville and you will be staying with my dearest student and one of my closest friends, Twilight Sparkle. That is of course if it is what you wish," Peter thought about this for a second and then made up his mind. "That should be fine princess, I mean hell this could even turn out to be kind of fun."
"Now then Peter, I believe you had a second question?" The princess asked. "Oh yeah I did, what exactly is this tattoo on my side here?" Peter asked as he pointed one of his hooves to the symbol on his flank.
"Ah yes. That peter is your cutie mark." "My cutie mark? Em … What exactly does it mean?" Peter asked truly confused at this point.
"A cutie mark is given to a pony at a certain point in their life when they realise their special talent, it defines the pony in question, for instance as you can see mine is the sun, that is because I am the goddess of the sun and raise it every day for my people, yours is a spider because… Well I think you should know that. Spider-Man."
Peter's heart sank when she finished, not only did she know he was Spider-Man but she also knew his real name, but he knew he could trust her so he wasn't too worried, however he was still a little on edge.
"Ok so how do you know about Spider-Man and how do you know that he is me?" Peter asked with a worried expression on his face. "Very simple Peter, when I read your mind I decided it best to know a bit about you and the first thing I discovered was of you being a hero by the name of Spider man in your world of Earth, If I may say I am quite Honoured to have a great hero such as yourself in my presence, and also quite intrigued as to what powers you have."
Peter thought for a few seconds before deciding it would be better for a demonstration than to simply tell her about his abilities, so he stood up walked towards the nearest wall and stood there.
"Well Princess this is one of my powers and my personal favourite." Peter watched the princess gasp as he began to slowly ascend the wall with his spider powers and plant himself on all fours directly on the roof, "Ta Da!" Peter said proudly as he leaped back to his seat from the roof without making a sound.
"Absolutely incredible," The princess said with an open mouth, "I prefer Amazing but I can live with it heh heh," Peter laughed with an amused smirk on his face."
"What other powers do you have Peter?" The princess asked with all the giddiness of a school girl, "Well lets see, Super strength, Super speed, Super reflexes, Oh and I can survive falls from heights that others couldn't, Oh yeah and there is this sixth sense of mine that allows me to tell where danger is coming from even before it happens, I just call is spider sense."
"Amazing Peter absolutely amazing, but how did you obtain these powers?" "To make a long story short princess I was bitten by this super advanced genetically altered spider and instead of killing me it gave me my powers."
The princess simply sat there dumbfounded and amazed at what she had seen and been told.
"Well Peter it seems to be nearly one O clock and I have told Twilight you would be arriving at Twenty past, now do you have any more questions or needs?" Peter pondered for a moment, he had no questions but there was still one problem.
"Yes actually princess, would it be possible to change my cutie mark to something else?" The princess looked at him suspiciously obviously in thought and then realised what he was planning as a smile formed on her face. "Now why would you need that to happen Peter? You wouldn't be planning on carrying on your occupation here now would you?" Peter had to give her credit, she was smart and caught onto him in an act. "Well maybe but only if it is necessary as in if danger is around, I don't like seeing innocent people or em ponies get hurt when I know I can stop it." The princess began to think for a few seconds and then formulated a plan for him.
"To answer your question Peter Yes there is something I can do, and I think I have the perfect idea." She stood up from her chair and walked over to a chest on the floor where she used her magic to open and pull out a worn looking red and blue backpack, Which peter immediately identified as his, but he was still staring at the princess's horn which was glowing a light blue and swirling with magic, Peter was lost in its beauty and didn't realise the princess pull out a very familiar red and blue jumpsuit suit from the bag.
I believe I can make a spell that will only show your real cutie mark when you are dressed in this and show a different one when you are not dressed. She motioned to peters Spider Man suit which had been converted to a pony shaped one, this brought up one more question that peter had forgotten to ask and it was a pretty obvious one, "Princess I almost forgot, how exactly am I a pony? The princess walked towards him and stopped at the side of his chair. "Ah yes, now that I can answer, you see peter humans do not exist here in Equestria and since this land is so powerful and rich in magic, the magic of the world changed your form to that of the dominant species of the planet, that being ponies." Peter thought about this for a second and strangely enough it made sense to him. "Now what do you think of my idea for you Peter?"
Peter looked at his suit and realised that if he wasn't going back home then it was his duty to help the ponies of this land in any way he could.
With great Power comes great responsibility.
"I think it's an excellent plan princess, so do you want to go ahead and cast the spell that will change my mark?" The princess nodded and closed her eyes peter then felt a warm fuzzy feeling where his cutie mark was and looked down to see that his cutie mark was now that of an atom. Pfft always the science geek Parker even in a different universe. Peter thought to himself. The princess then looked at the Spider man costume and charged it with the same spell as she had peters cutie mark and then set it down on the table in front of him and smiled. "Now then the spell has been cast and your true mark will only appear when you wear this costume, oh and yes you can have this saddle bag to keep it in." The princess put a black saddle bag on the table and placed the costume inside of it along with Peters web shooters. Peter then proceeded to put the saddle bag on and face the princess. "Ok your highness I think I'm all set to head to Ponyville, How will I be getting there?" Peter asked. "Well Peter if you weren't running late I would tell you to use your wings," Wings? Peter thought to himself but he then noticed his reflection once more in the mirror and gasped, there on either side of his body were two white wings, he didn't notice them before because they blend in so well to his fur. This day just went from weird to scary to plain awesome, I HAVE WINGS WOOH NELLY! Peter thought to himself with a large smile on his face.
"However peter you are running late so I will have to teleport you to the outskirts of Ponyville myself, oh yes and I need to quickly go over our backstory with you, ok now make sure you remember all of this. Your father is one of my personal guards who recently completed his tenth year of active service in the elite guard, your mother is a book store owner in Manehatten and you have just graduated from Collage at the Canterlot royal Collage. You were born in Cloudsdale and you are training to become an active royal guard just like your father. Now do you have all of that?"
"Yes princess I should be able to remember it all just one more thing did you say tele-.
Peter was engulfed in a bright light and felt his entire body fill with energy and before he could even blink he was standing in the middle of a field near a dark looking forest.
"Port... Oh … Well that was, strange. Hmm that must be Ponyville over there." Peter said as he looked towards a large colourful town in the distance that looked like something from a Disney movie. If this place gets any more cute, its going to give me diabetes for sure, oh well off we go Parker time to go meet this Twilight person.. I mean pony, damn I'm gonna have to get used to this pony thing , Hopefully the princess will be able to find a spell to send me home but until then, look out equestria, Peter Parkers coming to get ya. Peter thought to himself as he jogged towards the town in sight.
Little did he know that he was being watched from above.
Okey Dokey Lokey Fokeys that wraps up chapter three and I must say I enjoyed writing the conversations between Celestia and Peter very much. Now I am afraid I have some tragic news to tell, at precisely 6 O clock last Saturday evening, Peters sandwich was eaten by a murderous pigeon. Let us all bow our heads and say a word or two for our friend who was taken from this world too soon… You will be missed sandwich…You will be missed :'(
