There was a soft whisper of wind as it passed through the leaves of trees. A dark haired young man was lying on the grass under a fairly large apple tree. He was tanned and looked to be pretty lean.
He was wearing a green shirt along with a black pair of pants. Oddly enough, he had no shoes on. The rustling of the leaves slowly stirred him awake. His eyes started to openbefore he flinched as a shaft of sunlight struck his face.
With a soft annoyed groan, he scooted to the side a little, moving out of the light so he could see properly before laying his head back in disbelief. It looked like he was in a forest of Apple Trees. With a small crack, an apple fell from the tree and struck him on the forehead.
"Oww!" he shouted as he rubbed the spot, feeling like he was going to grow a huge bump from that apple that rolled next to him. He growled and picked it up "Geez, Isaac Newton eat your heart out" he then began to laugh, just at the absurdity of the situation.
Then he heard a female voice speaking in a happy and loud tone "It came from over here" the girl said said sounding excited.
The young man blinked "Why does that voice sound familiar?" he asked himself, mumbling just under his breath. The second female voice that followed only furthered his confusion.
"Yer just hearin' things" the second girl said with a southern drawl. It wasn't so thick that you couldn't under stand what she was saying, but thick enough that she sounded cute when she talked "Who'd be out here in the middle of the farm?"
"I'm telling you, I heard someone shout ow, and then a lot of laughter, and then I thought to myself: What if someone is throwing a party? How can I not be part of any party? And who can't benefit from my party cannon" the first voice said happily.
He stood up "That can't be them, they aren't real" he chuckled nervously. Sure, he had wanted to meet them when he watched them on tv, but he had never thought it would have happened. That would just be silly.
His thoughts were confirmed when the two people...er ponies...walked around a tree and stopped, staring at him with wide eyes. Of course, he was sure his face mirrored their expressions.
"What in tarnation is that?" the pony on the left asked. She was a blond haired, orange colored pony with a cowboy's hat on, and she looked like she could deal some pain if the muscles in her sides were any indication.
Her companion, a pink pony with a darker pink hair color, was jumping up and down in excitement, her eyes wide "I don't know, but wowee look at it! It is a weird creature alright" she had quickly surrounded him and was bouncing up and down, looking him, using her hooves to lift his arms.
That was it for him, suddenly, everything went black and just before he lost consciousness, he felt himself hit the ground.
When he came to, he didn't know how much time had passed, but he knew enough had passed since he was now laying in a surprisingly soft bed.
His forehead was also cold, though he quickly found out the cause was an ice pack that had been placed on his head 'Oh great, I just hit my head, it was all a..dream?' he thought to himself as he looked around, not recognizing the room he was in.
"Oh, you are awake" a soft voice came from the stairs as a light yellow pony appeared, her bright pink hair falling in front of her eyes "You are such a strange animal, I am glad you weren't seriously hurt, I had no idea how to help you when Apple Jack and Pinkie brought you in so I just did my best" she walked up next to the bed to examine him.
He brought his hand to his head, rubbing it gently 'Apple Jack? Pinkie?' he thought 'If I am right and if this isn't a dream, then she must be' his eyes turned toward the soft eyed female next to the bed "Fluttershy" he whispered.
She made a soft eep and hopped back, her wings fluttering "Y-y-you c-can t-talk?" she asked, slipping into the shy pegasus that he had come to know every time the show came on "a-and how...do you know my n-name?"
He gave her a small smile and ran a hand through his hair "Ah...sorry to startle you" he said softly "I...I don't know how I know your name" he gave a little chuckle. He didn't know what made him lie to her, but he didn't think it was best if she knew that she was part of a cartoon.
"Amnesia?" she asked, all business again.
"Selective I think" he answered in the same tone before he grinned and held out his hand to her "I am very sorry, I have forgotten my manners, it is a pleasure to meet you"
She looked at his fingers curiously "No hooves, claws, or paws" she said softly as she raised a hoof to his hand. He gently curled his fingers around it and shook once, watching her as she watched his hand. Her cheeks turned red before she smiled "It is nice to meet you too...um Mr..?" she wondered.
"Jason" he said smiling "Just call me Jason"
"What a weird name" a happy voice came from the foot of the bed, causing the both of them to jump, and look towards the source of the voice, seeing a familiar pink pony. She smiled brightly "Hi Jason, I'm.."
"Pinkie Pie" he said automatically, seeing her face flash confusion for a second before she giggled.
"Right, that is so cool, how did you know what I was going to say?" she asked curiously.
He shook his head "I didn't, I just knew your name"
"Then how did you know my name?" she asked, placing her hooves on the edge of the bed, looking excited "Do you have some superfantabulous mind reading ability?!"
He laughed "No, I am not completely sure how I know it" he shrugged as he sat up, leaning back against the head board. He rubbed his face "I don't even know how I ended up in that forest" at least that part was true.
The last thing he remembered was kicking off his shoes and flopping down onto his couch to watch some tv. It'd been a long day and he was a little tired. Not even ten minutes had passed before he was out.
What had happened after that? Was this some sort of elaborate prank? But who would do this to him? He didn't even know anyone who could do something this big.
Jason suddenly realized that Pinkie Pie had vanished and looked at Fluttershy "Um..where did Pinkie go?" he asked before the aforementioned pony appeared above him, seeming to be stuck to the ceiling.
"So you don't know where you came from or where you are going? That is alright! You can stay here in Ponyville with us until you can get your memory back! Ohmygosh, then we could help you get back to where you belong" she suddenly gave a gasp "I have a party to plan!" then she was gone, zipping out of the house before either he or Fluttershy could say something.
He chuckled "Well, she is easily excited isn't she" he said. He'd always imagined what it would be like to meet Pinkie Pie. Now that he had...he wasn't completely sure he could deal with her on a regular basis. She was pretty hyper active.
Fluttershy gave him a small smile and nodded "She is, but she..um..means well" she looked a little uncomfortable. Of course, she always looked uncomfortable about something "Um...if you need help..I know a pony who can help, she's really smart"
"I'd love to meet her, thank you Fluttershy" he said smiling. He chuckled when he saw her blush a little.
"P-please get some rest, I'll get her to come by tomorrow" she said as she headed for the stairs "Call if you need anything" and then she too was gone.
He sighed and sunk back against the pillow, thoughts running through his head. He knew where he was. He was in Equestria, Ponyville to be exact. How he got here was a mystery, but he supposed that it could be worse. He could have ended up in a far darker fictional world.
Pretty much every creature in this world was nice, aside from a few unmentionables. He rubbed his eyes. A human in the My Little Pony universe. He'd read plenty of stories about this, but this was unreal. How was he supposed to deal with this situation?
He flopped around for a couple of seconds and sighed, relaxing again "I hope I can figure this all out" he said softly and closed his eyes, soon drifting off. His last thought was that it'd been a long day, but that was no reason for him to be so tired.
At the same time, in another place, two figures were sitting int he dark, staring at a crystal ball that showed Jason sleeping. The first shadowy figure to speak had green eyes and a light female voice "What is that foul looking creature?" she asked examining the boy.
The second figure was yellow and red eyes "That, my fine little dear, is called a human and he was brought into this world because you tried to use my magic without waking me first, now I am about as powerful as a Unicorn, and not a well trained one either"
"If your magic had done what it was intended to do, this wouldn't be a problem" the woman said "What I want to know, is why it didn't work and instead brought this...human here?"
The red eyes rolled "My magic is one of destruction, meant to unravel the balance of magic and recreate it in interesting and comedic ways, you disregarded the recreate it part and so the world had to find a different way to balance everything, hence the human" he chuckled "But I suppose this could be fun to watch, and he could prove to be useful"
The woman scoffed and shook her head "You better be right" with a flash of magic, she was gone.
"I will be right" he said softly "And once I have my magic returned, you and every little pony in this world will be under my control"
