Chapter 13: Alternate universe
Knowledge?
...
Anger?
...
Peace? Strength?
...
Oh that's just perfect. My consciousnesses are gone.
"Look, Firefly! A fan of mine!" I heard a familiar voice say. I got up from the ground to see me, except I was wearing a monocle and had fancy clothes on. So did Firefly, who followed close behind.
"Nice costume kid, I can barely tell the difference!" Firefly said.
"You look just like me!" The other Stargazer chuckled.
"I AM you!" I said, pointing at the other Stargazer.
"No, you can't be. You don't look famous." He said.
"Ye-...Wait, you're famous?" They gasped.
"I cannot believe you haven't heard of me." Myself said.
"I am Stargazer, Worldwide known Astronomer." he said.
"Pfft. I was never famous in my universe." I breathed so they couldn't hear.
"Oh my, you seem to be dirty, do you have a place to stay?" Firefly asked.
"Well, because I am you, I'll have to stay at your house." I said to Stargazer II.
"Oh sure. I have no problem with that at all." He said.
"Come. Join us for dinner as it is almost evening." He said, and I followed.
"Wait, isn't it easier to fly?" I said. He scoffed.
"Flying is for normal ponies, but for famous ponies such as I, there is no need to fly like a foal." He replied.
Wow. This guy isn't even close to my personality.
There was a carriage and Stargazer II and Firefly hopped in. They motioned me inside.
"No thanks, I think I'll fly by myself." I said. They shrugged and the carriage floated up as the Royal Guards were hooked to it. I flew alongside the carriage, until I saw a yellow pegasus with a yellow and black mane and tail inside of a jail when we arrived at Canterlot. I flew to the side and looked through the bars of his cell.
"Hey! Pssst. Bumble!" He turned around to see me, and instantly frowned.
"Hi Stargazer. Where's your fancy outfit? Lost it because my wish came true?" He asked.
"What wish?" I asked.
"The wish were you will have a miserable life for throwing me in prison!" He yelled.
"Calm down!" I told back at him. He spat on me, his saliva landing on my shoulder. I wiped it off as it was nothing. He then looked concerned.
"You aren't Stargazer." He said.
"More or less. I'm from a different universe." I said, and he looked shocked.
"No! No! This is just my insanity coming back to haunt me! No! No!" He started whimpering for a while, and then he turned back to me.
"Leave... Before I do something bad..."
"What? No, I-"
"LEAVE!" He yelled, trowing a hidden knife through the bars, just grazing my mane. I flew away quickly.
"AND NEVER COME BACK!" He yelled afterwards.
What in Celestia's name is going on here?!
I arrived at my other self's house, and boy, was it huge. It was like one of those mansions you would see in a movie, except it was at least twice the size. We had a dinner fit for a king, and we went to an announcement that Stargazer II was going to make, because he was the Mayor of Canterlot.
"Citizens of Canterlot!" He said through the microphone, everypony calming down.
"I would like you to meet my biggest fan, uh..." He came close and asked,
"What is your name?"
"Stargazer."
"That can't be that is my name!" I grabbed the microphone out of his hoof and said,
"Actually, I am not his fan. I am him from an alternate universe." I announced. There was a moment of silence, and everypony bursted into laughter.
"That fan is quite the comedian!" Somepony called from the crowd. Stargazer II also announced some kind of competition that I didn't pay attention to. We then went back to his home and got ready for bed. Stargazer II led me to the Guest's room, which was more like a king's room. There was a king sized bed, velvet carpeting, everything!
I relaxed in my temporary bed, and drifted off to sleep.
I opened my eyes to see Stargazer II sitting in the bed with me, smiling.
"What are you-"
"Shhh, shhhh." He put a hoof over my mouth. He then graped the back of my head and leaned me in for a kiss.
That's right. A kiss. I punched him in the face and sped out of the mansion, and flew down to a pond from below. I got tons of water in my mouth and spit it out. I then hurled inside a nearby bush.
Oh god, not only is my other self in this world rich and famous, but he's gay!
