This is the story of an aspiring cartoonist named Harold DeMatt.
He’s 15 years old, and he’s running away from his troubles in New York. He's dealt with bullying problems, the abuse and negligence of his corrupt parents and struggling with school. But after his beloved older sister, Lana died in his arms, Harold decided to set off to escape his demeaning life and fulfill his last promise to her.
On the fourth night of his journey, a near-death experience involving a tornado sends Harold to the unlikeliest of all places: Equestria, a land of peace and harmony. For the first time since Lana's death, Harold felt happy and decides to restart his life with a fresh new start before the princesses can send him back.
It would seem easy for Harold if not for two major problems: The bad memories of New York coming back to haunt him; and being treated as an outcast by the ponies of Ponyville (except for the Mane Six, Spike and other certain ponies).
With these two problems getting in the way for Harold's plans for a clean slate, it may seem impossible! Can Harold earn everypony's trust? Can he fend off his insecurities during his stay? Can he muster up the courage to stop an ancient evil from threatening his newfound friends? More importantly, can he fulfill his promise to Lana so he could move on?
