A man named Eric was contacted by an old friend from collage to help test a newly developed form of entertainment known the Reality Simulator. A Device that is claimed by his friend to be the future of entertainment, capable of inserting the user into virtually designed realities with enough extremely realistic detail to make any modern videogame seem trivial. Eric agrees and becomes the first to test out this Reality Simulator.
However, something goes wrong and Eric is trapped in a what he assumes is a very strange virtual world and is left to question what is real and what is not...
Note: The Alternate reality tag is here because the MLP universe is not entirely the same as the show.
