This story is a sequel to Before the Night

A sequel to Before the Night. Bald Ostrich, consort and coltfriend to Princess Luna before her banishment, finds himself in modern day Equestria. Will the Royal Sisters remember him? Will adjusting to modern, Equestrian life be difficult for somepony who was once not a pony? This, is Dawn of a New Day

So there I was, minding my own business and helping my buddy out as a beta tester for one of his coding projects, when all of a sudden—

Surprise!

I got turned into the character I'd been making. More importantly, I got teleported to the middle of nowhere. It sucks that I've been placed in this kind of dangerous situation with nothing but the clothes on my back, but at least I have some superpowers to help me survive.

A teenaged boy is transported to Equestria. Being a Brony himself, he fantasized about this scenario a number of times, even thinking up situations in which he's transformed into a pony or other Equestrian creatures. He however did not think up any situations in which he is transformed into an Elder Dragon from the latest Monster Hunter game in the series Monster Hunter World. Unfortunately for him, he's been transformed into the angriest and scariest of the Elder Dragons in the game, Nergigante the Extinction Dragon, on the plus side, he's able to speak instead of just roaring and grunting, so the language barrier's not gonna be problem.

What IS going to be a problem is the fact that he looks like an angry demon dragon that breeded with a porcupine. And that there are other Elder Dragons and Monsters from the series such as Rathalos, Odogaron, Deviljho, Bazelgeuse, Vaal Hazak, Zorah Magdaros, and Xeno'Jiiva. Not to mention the fact that a number of the Elder Dragons have enough power to alter the very landscapes with their presence, with Xeno'jiiva having enough power to be given the title Elder Dragon God. Naturally having so many powerful monsters be clustered in one spot, a number of important people Ponies have taken notice. Celestia wishes to further understand the new arrivals, while Tirek plans to absorb the power of the Elder Dragons to make it his own. It doesn't help that a few of the monsters have their own agendas as well, and to put our protagonist even further up Shit-Creek without a paddle he can't remember his own name.

Even a blind man could tell you that shit's about to hit the fan at the speed of Sonic the Hedgehog.
Who is not going to be in this fanfic, I just used his name for hyperbole purposes.

A young human male dies after getting into a fight and goes to meet Death in the after life. Once there he is offered a second chance at life in a new world, and new form. And the new form he choses for his new life is the four tailed beast Son Goku. Now follow him as he makes his way through the world that he now calls home.

All he wanted was to buy the last copy of Summer Wars, that was literally it and what does he have to show for it? Absolutely nothing since he bought it, and had ended up entering Equestria as one of the most ferocious villains of said movie. But hey at least there's one pony who is willing to be his friend right?

Join Ethan/Love-Machine and his weird friends on the funny, exciting, adventures they'll all have together or at least that's what they're all hoping, but knowing Ethan's luck it isn't going to end well for him. He has only one thing to ask?

"Why Me?"

Oh, um... Hello. My name is Lewis... or at least, I think it is. I have arrived in this odd place known as Equestria, a continent filled with creatures known as Equines, or Ponies, if you prefer. The world I'm on, known as Equis, Midguard/Midland, or Equus, is also home to Changelings, Griffons, Dragons, and other creatures, some of which are entirely alone in terms of species, like the "God of Chaos" (God of Chaos my ass), Discord, the Draconequus... then there's the Hydras, the Timberwolves, the Manticores, and also the Cockatrices, which I'm immune to, surprisingly... I thank my poltergeist-y-ness... which also kept me from getting controlled by Discord... Anyway, I'll explain what I can remember from my past as much as I can...

Huh? Oh hey! Didn't see you there! Considering my eyes cant exactly move at the moment.... Anyways! Nice to have an audience! What? You cant hear me? Thats alright, my mouth cant move anyway. So! Your probably wondering how I got here eh? Well, it involves a convention, a costume, and a very stupid decision. Got some cool gloves out of it though! Eh, ok they're not that cool, well to me anyways. Back to what I was saying...
.....
What was I saying?
......
Eh, it doesnt matter! Because I can feel my prison breaking and my freedom is at hand!
Let freedom ring!!!

Greetings weary traveler/bored reader. Let me regale you with my tale. The tale of a mere mortal, with nothing particularly special to his name, brought to a magical land of dragons, minotaurs, griffins, and of course ponies. But he came as no mere human. He came as the epic warrior, the manliest of swordsmen, that most dashing of multiverse travelers, the mighty Gilgamesh! What adventures will this powerful and magnificent warrior find in his travels? HELL IF I KNOW! LET'S STRAP IN AND SEE WHERE THIS GOES!

May 25, 2014: I GOT FEATURED! HOLY CRAP THANK YOU SO MUCH!

To escape from Tartarus is nearly impossible, even for one of great magical power. When you've lost your powers and are little more than a withered old centaur, it's even harder. But Tirek has a plan, one that will draw in a creature from a world where life is cheap, hats are plentiful, and gravel is king. Will the Spy take the opportunity to enjoy a well-earned vacation in this new world, or will he see the population of friendly, innocent ponies as just a fresh selection of backs to stab? It could be both!

(Takes place before the beginning of Season 9.)

The son of Princess Amore has lost everything and has to find his place in the world of a thousand years ago. Hoping to find a reason to move on, he wanders aimlessly everywhere accompanied by his faithful escort, a female warrior from his homeland, in a relentless search for traces of the past they left behind. In the course of their journey they meet a musician of extraordinary abilities, who unexpectedly joins them, determined to bring his art to every corner. Together, they gather their courage and embark on a dangerous mission to try to save the Crystal Empire, in which they must overcome the adversities along the way, discover themselves and build together not only their own destiny, but that of all of Equestria.

Turbulent times were upon the Equestria of a millennium ago. Dealing with the consequences of one evil after another and working for the sake of harmony required enormous sacrifices; sometimes the efforts of the good were in vain and the cost very high. At the end of one dark stage, much had been lost, but one sunny day heralded the beginning of an era of celestial peace. There is just so much that time erased, so much history lost from one generation to another, that the passing of the years managed to tear the roots of the past from the memory of those who live today; although some long-lived beings keep the memories of yesteryear as scars and carry with them wounds that never finished healing.

Lives, forgotten events and unanswered questions; much finds explanation in these very pages, in the epic adventure never told by any other manuscript in history, because you had to be there to live it.

To understand the present that surrounds us, one must first look beyond the crystal.
