Meeting the Mane Six in Ponyville
"So, this is Ponyville?" Aka asked looking around seeing the anthro ponies enjoying their day like any other, as he and Zecora arrived in town.
"Yes, it is a peaceful place compare to another, as we will soon meet the ruler." Zecora said as she waves to some ponies as they wave back.
"Rulers, you mean like the mayor of something?" Aka asked wondering how this world works like who rules here.
"No, not the mayor, we are going to six special friends I know including one who is one of the princesses who rule this land." Zecora answered.
"Princesses, that sounds something from an old fairy tale." Aka recalled some books he read back in his old world though most of them didn't have all the pages and were destroyed too.
"Four Princesses to be exact, two ruling together and the other two rules on their own intact." Zecora explained.
Aka looks around again noticing that the townsfolk are eyeing him with curious looks and whispering among each other, he can probably tell that they're wondering who or 'what' he is walking in Ponyville with Zecora. He can also see the worry look in their eyes wondering if he's a threat to the town as they can see the sword on his back out in the open like it's no big deal and fear that he's dangerous, which they're not entirely wrong on that.
"Looks like they aren't liking me here already." Aka stated, not really sure how to respond to that since he spends most of his life alone surviving against the demons.
"Do not worry, they'll warm up to you soon though not in a hurry." Zecora stated knowing Aka will have to earn the ponies in Ponyville's trust which is not always easy.
"I guess." Aka said.
Truth is; this is the first time that Aka has ever seem something that has so much life in both the people living and the buildings intact like every day is a peaceful day for them, nothing like the places in his old world where all life is dead killed by the hands or claws of the demons as the land itself becomes a wasteland. He grew up barely knowing anything else in life besides fighting against demons endlessly every day, all the other things he learned were from his parents until they died sacrificing themselves when he was 10-years-olds. He never got experience anything outside of fighting and surviving like going to school, hanging out with some people and making friends, wanting to spend more time with his parents as they watch him grow up. Never a single chance to try living a normal life like anyone though to be honest, his life would've been anything but normal either way.
He just wishes, even though he knows it was pointless, that he could his parents were still alive with him now and hope to not have to worry about demons every day like he could die at any moment. Like he almost did when the demons finally caught him.
Maybe this new world can help him feel at ease, being at peace for the first time in years. Although he hopes that his new life on Equestria won't be too peaceful, he always sees himself as a man of action.
"Hey, Zecora!" Aka snapped out of his thoughts when he heard someone calling out to Zecora and saw three little girls running up to them.
"Hello Crusaders, I see you're having a day of wonders!" Zecora agreed them.
"We sure are, we were just doing some fun things while thinking of helping other colt and fillies with their cutiemarks." Applebloom said.
"Then we saw thinking we could we say hello." Sweetie Belle added.
Scootaloo look up and down looking at Aka thinking she seem him before, then she remembers.
"Hey girls, isn't he the guy he helped in the Everfree forest?" Scootaloo asked pointing at Aka. Applebloom and Sweetie Belle look at him realizing she's right.
"Yeah, I think he is." Applebloom amazed to see him up already.
"You helped?" Aka asked.
"Yeah, we were with Zecora when we found in the jungle, we carried you all the way to her hut." Applebloom explained.
"Well, in that case thank you for helping me. I'm Aka Redgrave." Aka introduced himself.
"Glad to meet you, I'm Applebloom."
"Hi, I'm Sweetie Belle."
"The name's Scootaloo, and don't you forget it!"
"And together, we are THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" The young girls shouted together.
"They sure are full of energy." Aka complimented.
"Yes, exciting bunch like they had too many sweets during lunch." Zecora commented.
"So, your first time in Ponyville?" Applebloom asked.
"Yeah, so far the town looks great with all the positive in the air." Aka commented the town.
"Yeah, it's to relax for a while, but I'm more of a mare of action like Hi-Ya!" Scootaloo shouted posing some karate moves.
"And I learned them all from the one and only, Rainbow Dash!" She bragged about her idol.
"I'm already liking this kid." Aka whispered to Zecora as she giggles.
"Girls, I'm taking Aka to see Twilight, hoping she could shad some light on his situation." Zecora explained.
"Cool, I think my big sister Applejack is at her castle with the others." Applebloom informed.
"Thank you, we'll be off now." Zecora said walking off.
"See you girls around." Aka said farewell to the crusaders as he follows Zecora.
Zecora and Aka made their way through a street or two until they reach a very big and tall castle made entirely out of crystals shining. Aka felt impress as he whistled at the sight, thinking that this Princess Twilight must have paid a lot of money to get a castle like this.
If only he knew.
Zecora knocks on the door a couple of times, they waited for a moment and the door open by a certain purple dragon boy.
"Oh, hey Zecora, what brought you here today?" Spike asked greeting his zebra friend.
"Hello Spike. Is Princess Twilight here today?" Zecora asked.
"Yeah, she's in the map room with the others." Spike answered.
"Good, because I have brought a friend who could use some help." Zecora said gesturing to Aka.
"Hey there." Aka greeted with a smirk.
"Whoa, never seen anything like you before. New in Equestria?" Spike asked opening the door letting the two in.
"From another world." Aka said shocking Spike.
"For real!" Spike surprised.
"Yep." Aka smiled.
"Boy, Twilight is gonna be in for a surprise when she meets you." Spike said as he leads them to the map room he mentioned earlier.
"Did someone say, Surprise?" Pinkie suddenly popped between in front of Aka.
On instinct, Aka quickly took out his guns pointing at Pinkie who freeze with her hands in the air like she just got arrested by the police.
"Whoa, dude, easy!" Spike pushed the guns away.
"This is Pinkie Pie, she's a friend!" Spike said calming Aka down.
He looks at Pinkie in the eyes knowing that she's good at heart and wouldn't hurt a fly, he smiles as he put his guns away.
"Sorry about that, when you lived in a world where everything is trying to kill you every day it's best to make the first move before your finish." Aka explained.
"Wow, you must be one tough cookie to handle all that." Pinkie commented.
"It's part of the charm." Aka winked at Pinkie who blushes as she giggles.
Soon, everyone made their way to the map where Twilight and the rest of the mane six is sitting on their own thrones.
"Twilight, Zecora is here with someone you should probably meet." Spike announced as he enters the room with Pinkie, Aka, and Zecora following him.
"Hi Zecora, how've you been?" Twilight greeted.
"Swell, Twilight, this young stallion or "Man" as his species call themselves need some help as well." Zecora said gesturing her hand to Aka.
Aka got a good look at the girls seeing them with awesome curvy figures that anyone women in his world would be jealous and wish to have a body like that. His eyes were especially on two girls in the room like the one with the cowboy hat and the other with rainbow-colored hair, they look sexy in their own way like Pinkie he met earlier. Something was telling him that he's going to get to know them more than just the normal way, feeling an urge to want them for himself.
"What's up ladies, name's Aka Redgrave: the definition of stylish and awesomeness!" Aka bragged introducing himself.
"Well, darling, you certainly do the style. These clothing your wearing are indeed stylish as they scream you from inner." Rarity amazed of Aka clothes upon closer look at them.
"Easy there, Rar, don't want to give folks the wrong idea." Applejack teased, Rarity huff at the cowgirl then back to Aka.
"Greeting Aka, I'm Rarity Belle, the most fabulous fashion designer you'll never meet!" Rarity said shaking his hand.
"Nice to meet you, I have been thinking of changing a thing or two of my looks lately, except the jack that stays." Aka said holding onto his jacket showing it's his most prize possession, beside his necklace. He also notices something about Rarity's last name.
"You wouldn't happen to know a young named Sweetie Belle?" Aka asked.
"Yes darling, she's my little sister." Rarity answered knowing he must have met her in his way here.
"Oh, then you must be the big sister Applebloom mentioned." Aka pointed at Applejack.
"Yep, the name's Applejack, nice to meet you partner." Applejack greeted as she walks up to him and they shake hands.
"I bet can't guess who I am." Rainbow Dash said flying above him.
"Hmm, I say you're Rainbow Dash. Scootaloo was showing off some karate moves." Aka mentioned.
"That's me, the fastest pony alive and 20% pure awesome!" Rainbow Dash said proudly, Applejack roll her eyes knowing her friends like to brag on and show off sometimes.
"What about the other 80%?" Aka wondered, then Pinkie pop front of him again, but this time he knows better.
"Hi, you already know me as Pinkie Pie, Best Party Planner in all of Equestria!" Pinkie smiled popping some balloons and confetti out of nowhere somehow with two cupcakes in each hand.
"Here, this is for you." Pinkie handed Aka a cupcake with written letters in frosting 'NBF' with a heart shape next to it.
"Thanks." Aka said before eating the cupcake.
Fluttershy walks up to Aka looking at him thinking he's scary because of how he looks and that he also carries a big sword on his back. Though she can tell that Aka doesn't mean any harm to others, especially with everypony else being calm around him knowing that he's a friend as he was with Zecora too.
"Hi…" Fluttershy greeted softy as Aka heard that.
"Hey there cutie, got a name?" Aka asked as she finish eating the cupcake.
"I'm Fluttershy." Fluttershy said though quietly.
"Fluttershy, that name suits you." Aka complimented, Fluttershy smiles glad that he could hear her even though she sometimes speaks lower for anyone to hardly hear.
"She's shy when it comes to meeting new faces, but she'll open up to you when you get to know her more." Rainbow said landing next to Fluttershy.
"I can see that." Aka nodded.
"Greeting Aka, my name is Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship." Twilight said spreading her wings.
"And you already know me as Spike the Dragon, Twilight's number one assistant and friend to all!" Spike said standing next to Twilight as he spread out his own wings.
After introductions, Zecora begun explaining to the mane six about how he found Aka in the Everfree forest yesterday as he fell from the sky like a meteor.
"So, that loud explosion we heard, was you?" Rainbow asked, surprise of the fact that Aka is still standing from the crash.
"Yep, still not entirely sure how I even got here in the first place. All I remember is fighting against demons like I do every day and the next thing I know; I woke up in Zecora's hut." Aka said.
Twilight was doing some thinking, base on what she heard from Zecora and Aka she believes there may be a connection to all this somehow, especially the part about Aka fighting against demons in his old world.
"Hey Twilight, doesn't this sound like that Sparda story book from yesterday?" Spike asked, wondering if it could be the cause.
"Wait, your world knows about Sparda?" Aka asked shock.
"Not really, we only found about him just yesterday when Spike brought me the book." Twilight said, then she starts getting an idea of where this is going.
"Spike, do you still have that in your room?" Twilight asked her dragon friend.
"I'll bring it here, right away!" Spike said knowing what Twilight is thinking mostly as he ran out to his room.
Aka looks at the table that is also appears to be a map of Equestria and probably beyond country.
"Nice table, it even as the 3-D effect." Aka said waving his hand through the mountains.
"This map shows us the whole world, beyond that of our homeland Equestria, it also alerts us if there's a friendship problem in any place it summons us there." Twilight explained.
"I see, and how does it alert exactly?" Aka asked.
"Whenever our cutie marks glow like crazy." Rainbow answered pulling her pants a bit shows him her cutie mark.
"Wow, nice way to show off such a nice rear." Aka flirted, Rainbow blush at the comment as she pulls up her pants back.
"I got the book!" Spike announced coming back with the book.
Spike hands the book to Twilight as she flips through the pages until she found the one page she last read.
"I knew it! Somehow the words I read was a dimension-teleportation spell, but it can only bring those who is Sparda's descendant by blood. Which explains about the red ball of light" Twilight explained.
The look at Aka as he smirks.
"Sparda is a famous legend in my world, especially the part where he married a human woman and have kids. So, yes, I'm Sparda's descendant." Aka said as the group eyes widen of shock.
"No way!" Rainbow said finding it hard to believe, yet at the same time she knows it's the truth.
"This is the biggest discovery in the history of Equestria, I got to inform the Princess in Canterlot!" Twilight excited.
Aka smiles, thinking that this new will be not be so bad, considering he's in a magical world of anthro animals mostly ponies and will get involved in something big.
"This is going to be fun!" Aka smirked.
