Chapter 2: Hospital Interrogation; An Alien In An Alien World

The townsponies watched as the Mane 6 and the strange being were making their way through Ponyville. Most of them were badly injured, but the worst were probably Rainbow Dash, who was being carried by Twilights magic, and the furless pony creature. They whispered amongst themselves, trying to figure out what happened to their friends. All they knew for certain was that the mares were fighting a monster that entered Ponyville and caused a ruckus. Although none of them was there to see it happen they could only speculate what happened by seeing the state the Mane 6 were in and from an explosion they heard, coming from the battlefield.

Nopony or the alien either heard what they were saying about them or they simply didn't care. Ever since they left for the hospital they haven't spoken a single word to each other, besides an occasional 'How are you holding up?' and 'Will you be fine?'. That doesn't mean they didn't try to talk with Trider, but every time they asked him or said something to him, he kept deathly silent. They couldn't tell if he was just so exhausted or he was still too angry with all of them. Eventually they stopped trying and just focused on getting to their destination.

Soon the Ponyville Hospital was in their sight. They picked up their pace for just a tiny bit, so they could relieve their pain. As they walked through the front door, the mare at the counter noticed them and gasped at the state they were in. Immediatelly she called for a few doctors and nurses so they could help their patients. Applejack and Rarity were sitted down on the chairs in the waiting area, while Rainbow Dash was put on a gurney and taken to one of the medical rooms.

A nurse that was inspecting Applejacks wrist and stomach asked. "What in the name of Celestia happened to you girls?"

The cow-mare pointed her thumb at the alien, who was still standing in the middle of the hallway. "We got into a bit of a brawl with that fella over there, but don'cha worry one bit, we settled it and he won't hurt anypony." Her face then changed to that of worry. "Speaking of which, he himself took quite a beating, so he might be in more serious condition than us."

A doctor gave a look at the man and asked. "You sure? He doesn't seem to be in that much pain?"

"Ah know, maybe he is just a lot tougher than anypony or maybe he is just putting on a facade, but what I know is that we kicked him hard enough to make him crash through a wall."

At that all attention was directed towards the alien. Finally a doctor decided to approach him. "Ummm, excuse me sir. Are you feeling okay?"

Trider gave no reply as he continued to stand there, with his head lowered, almost like a statue. It made everypony nervous, so the doctor tried asking him again. And again there was no reply. The stallion then tried a bit more daring approach. He put his hand on his forehead and lifted it up so he could look directly in his eyes. However his eyes were closed and that made the stallion even more confused. In that moment he did something that would make his name be written in stone for every future generation to see.

He slapped him.

Everypony gasped and then held their breath, waiting to see what the alien will do to the doctor. But nothing happened, not even a twitch came from him, as he just continued to stand there.

"I don't belive it, he's actually unconscious." The doctor said in awe.

At that everypony released their breath and relaxed, seeing that the man was unconscious. Soon it clicked in Twilights head at what the stallion was implying. "Wait you mean to say he fainted and he is still standing up even after losing all of his motor control?"

"That is exactly what I'm implying, miss Sparkle."

They continued to stare at Trider, until Applejack decided to break the silence. "What in Tartarus is this guy?"


Alcohol.

That was the first thing Trider smelled, but it wasn't the kind you would drink. No, it was the kind used by doctors.

"So I'm in a hospital, huh. Guess I really pushed myself past the limit this time." he mused.

Then he could hear sounds of muffled footsteps. "No, they don't sound like footsteps, they click too much." He could also hear sounds of birds coming from his right and voices belonging to people, as well as laughter of children. "They must've of left the window open."

Next he decided to finally open his eyes. It was difficult, because as soon as he opened them they began to burn from the searing light that assaulted him. Eventually though he was able to fully open them and he took in his surroundings. He was lying in a bed covered by thin sheets and an IV tube connected to his arm. The room itself wasn't anything impressive. It had tiled floor with blue walls and a green ceiling. There was another bed beside his, but it was currently unoccupied. On his right was a nightstand with a lamp, jug of water and a glass. Suddenly he realised just how thirsty he actually was and quickly reached for the jug. He immediatelly learned that was a mistake, as pain surged throughout his entire body, especially his left side.

Only now did he notice he wasn't in his clothes and only wore a hospital gown and a pair of boxer. He also had bandages covering every part of his body and his right leg was put in a cast. "Okay, I really went overboard this time. Still not as bad as the foodtruck incident though." He shivered at the memories of that particular mission.

The thirst slowly turned into a burning sensation, so he again reached for his salvation, this time however slowly and crarefully. He grabbed the handle of the jug and lifted it up and brought it towards himself and just like that began to chug from the jug itself, spilling some of it onto the sheets and his bandages.

As he was 'drinking' the door to his room opened up and in walked a nurse. She was looking at the clipboard she was carrying and it wasn't until she heard a large gulp she lifted her gaze. They stared at each others eyes, none moving. Trider slowly lowered the jug onto his lap, wiped his mouth and gave her a toothy grin. "Helloooo nurse."

Instead of saying anything she just slowly began to back off towards the door and closed it when she was out. "Oooookay, rude much?"

He didn't dwell on the scene too much as he quickly finished the rest of the jug. When he was done he put it back on the nightstand and began to mull over his thoughts.

"That female looked a lot like the ones I saw in my dreams. Though I guess I wasn't dreaming and it actually happened. And if they were real then that means I really am on another planet." he thought. "But if that is the case, then how did I get here? What happened to the men who were chasing me? More importantly though, is there a way I can go back?"

More and more thoughts began to flood his mind, until the door opened and in walked a stallion wearing a doctors coat, followed by the nurse that was in here not just a moment ago.

"Good afternoon sir. I see you're finally awake, we were kind of worried you will never get up." the stallion said. "How are you feeling anyway?"

Trider just gave him an annoyed look, before he replied. "Who the fuck are you?"

The doctor staggered a bit at profanity, not expecting it, but he quickly recovered. "Ah, yes excuse me, where are my manners. My name is doctor Remedy and this here is nurse Red Heart, I belive you already met her?"

The man still looked at the two with skeptical eyes, but didn't want to be too rude to the people who possibly elped him. "I did and the name's Trider. Trider Lykosgrothia."

The nurse and doctor exchanged a confused look, before the stallion spoke up. "That is an interesting name, kinda weird though."

"Oh I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you over the fucks I don't give about what you think. What did you say about my name mister Remedy?" he said growling, baring his fangs.

The doctor backed away, sweating. "N-Nothing. Nothing at all."

"Thought so." he said in satisfaction. "Spineless coward."

The doctor wasn't all that tall, maybe around Triders height. He had a pale green coat with brown hair and tail. On his nose he had a pair of thick rimmed glasses, that made him look older than he probably was. He wore a white coat over his ochre shirt, which extended to the knees of his dark brown pants.

The nurse wore the sterotypical nurses uniform, the kind you would find in cartoons, TV-shows or more adult material. The blouse as well as the short skirt were snow white, just like her fur. Trider bet that from a distance it looked like she wasn't wearing anything. Her mane on the other hand was a nice pink color, which went really well with her nurse appearance, and was done in a bun, so it didn't get in the was when she was working. She looked very attractive, even to the grumpy Kanisar.

He was brought out of his ogling, when Remedy cleared his throat. "I know miss Red Heart is a very beautiful mare, but right now we need to check on how well you are recovering." The nurse handed him over a clipboard she was carrying and he then continued. "I'm going to ask you some questions and I want you to answer them for me. Understood Mr. Ly.... uh?"

"Just Trider is fine and yes I get it."

Satisfied he began to go over the questions one by one. "All right then Trider, first up. Do you fell any pain at the moment?"

"Only when I move, otherwise I'm peachy."

The stallion nodded and went onto the next one. "Are you currently experiencing any headaches or throbbing in you head?"

"No." he grumbled. Before the doctor could continue, Trider decided to cut him off. "Doc do we really have to do this? Can't you just leave me rest or something?"

Remedy quickly replied. "Not a chance. You had several broken ribs and a punctured lung when you came in. And don't get me started on all the cuts, bruises, as well as broken leg. The worst however was the damage your head received, we were certain you had a concussion. It's a miracle you're alive, even more that you woke up after just four days. So yes this very necessary."

Unable to argue with the expert, he grumbled and gave in to the torturous questioning that followed.

After fifteen minutes they were finally finished with all the questions and the Kanisar sighed in relief.

The stallion looked through all the questions once again, to make sure they didn't miss anything. "Alright, it seems you' re recovering rather nicely, you should be out in just a few days."

That got Trider confused. "Few days? By the way you were telling me how damaged I was, I should be here for a few more weeks."

"Well yes, if you were another pony you would have to stay here for another week or more, but by looking at how fast your body is healing itself, with just a few more healing spells you will be out in four days tops." the doctor explained.

"Spells? Am I in some sort of voodoo hospital or something?" he thought.

Before he could sound his thoughts the stallion cut him off. "Since we are done with your health, I would like to ask you to tell us a bit about yourself and your kind, also we would like to collect some samples for testing."

Trider narrowed his eyes and glared at the doctor. Remedy got nervous and began sweating. "No." was all Trider said.

The doctor looked at him confused. "No? but we need to know more about you so we can give a proper treatment and-"

He was cut off, as Triders glare hardened. "I said no." he said in a growl. "I am thankful for you treating my injuries and all, but I will not talk about me or my kind to any of you. As far as I'm concerned you could only play nice so you could learn more about my kind and our weaknesses." The stallion was even more confused, but he didn't want to say anything as he feared that he might upset him and he would become violent.

"I understand. I guess we are done then, have a good day." He quitely walked out of the room and closed the door behind him.

As soon as he left Trider relaxed his muscles and sank into the bed, tiredness washing over him. He noticed that the nurse was still here, so he looked at her and asked. "Why are you still here?"

The question caught the mare off-guard and she scrambled for a bit before she regained her composure. "Oh, I just wanted to tell you that you will have some guests come by tomorrow."

Trider tilted his head in confusion. "Guests? Who in hell would come to visit me?"

Red Heart fiddled with her arms for a bit before she answered. "It's the mares you fought when you came to town as well as a few more important guests."

His eye twitched at the mention of the girls. "Those guys? Why in the hell would they want to talk to me?" he thought. While he was lost in his thoughts Red Heart decided to leave. "Maybe they want a rematch? Heh, if they want one I'll give it to them." he smiled at the thought of settling it once and for all. However his train of thought was derailed when he remembered something else the nurse said. "Important guests? Wonder who they will be? Eh, probably just some law enforcement, who would like to stuff me in jail. I would certainly like to see them try."

He continued to ponder about what tomorrow will be like, but tiredness quickly became too much to bear and he fell asleep.


Next day

The sound of knocking awoke the sleeping Kanisar, but he refused to acknowledge that he was waking up and ignored the noise. However the knocking continued until a voice spoke up. "Mr. Trider your guests have arrived."

"Guests what gue...? Oh, right." he thought as he slowly opened up his eyes and rose to a sitting position. "Tell them to fuck off, cuz I'm not in the mood to see their faces."

There was a pause, before Red Heart replied. "They insist on coming in and they don't care if you are willing or not."

Trider put a hand to his face as he grumbled. "Fine." he sighed. "But tell them to at least put some bags over their heads, cuz I was serious about the face thing."

The doors suddenly opened up and in came a fuming Rarity. "Excuse me? Is that any way to speak to lady, you barbarian?"

"Wouldn't know cuz I haven't seen one yet." Trider replied with a grin.

Rarity could only gape at what he said, before rage washed over her. "Why you little piece of -"

Applejack decided to intervene, before this escalated too far. She got behind the mare and grabbed her by the arms and began to pull her away from the man. "Wow, easy there Rares ya just got out of the hospital and he is still in it. Don't try to pick a fight with him even if he is bedridden."

Rarity only huffed, before she clamed down and went back to her friends. Trider saw that there were all the girls he fought yesterday, plus three additional.

One of them was a short mare with long pink hair which curved at the end, her tail done in similar fashion. He couldn't exactly see her face as she was hiding behind her mane as he was looking at her. "I can practically smell cowardice on her." he thought. Next he noticed the butter yellow wings on her back that were the same color as her fur. She wore a large green sweater with floral pattern on it and a knee long sky blue skirt.

The other two however were extremely different from the others. For one they had both a horn and wings, and were taller than anyone in the room, even himself. Another thing he noticed was that they were waring different jewelry as well as crowns, which made him belive they were either royalty or high-class nobles, and he didn't like neither of the two.

The shorther one had dark blue coat, with matching wings. Her hair and tail reminded him of the night sky, black and full of sparkles which reminded him of the stars. It was weird however that it moved on its own like it was caught in an eternal breeze, even though they were indoors. She wore a few shades lighter blue two piece dress, which exposed her arms and stomach, while on her head rested a black crown and on her chest was a black necklace with a white moon insignia embedded in it.

The second mare was a complete opposite of the shorter one. She was at least a head taller than the dark one standing at about 6'7 feet. Her coat was white, even whiter than Raritys or Red Hearts, it was like at the surface of the sun, it was practically radiating. Her mane and tail were a mix of of light blue, pink, darker blue and green and just like the other on hers too was flowing in non-existent breeze. She wore a pure white dress, which unlike with Red Heart you could discern between the clothes and fur, with long loose sleeves. Around her neck was a large golden necklace with a purple gem in the middle and the crown had the same design.

As he looked at them they too were analyzing him. Trider could sense how strong they were and it shouldn't impress him, they were stronger than the other mares, but still nothing compared to him. Even so he felt his hair stand on edge, despite what he sensed he somehow knew they were much more powerful than they seemed. Just like the mares who he should have been able to beat singlehandedly caused him enough damage that he fainted and that confused him. He also didn't like the looks they were giving him, while they both seemed to have a calm expression he could see that the blue one was glaring daggers at him, while the white one looked like she was judging him.

His staring match with the mares was interrupted by Twilight clearing her throat. "Hey there, I'm glad to see you are feeling better today."

He didn't say anything as he only stared at her.

Clearing her throat again Twilight continued. "Last time we got off on the wrong hoof, so why don't we start over. First of all I want tosay how sorry I am for what happened and ask for your forgiveness. My name is Twilight Sparkle and these here are my friends."

The orange mare as if on cue stepped forward and took off her stetson. "Mah name's Applejack and I would like to thank you fer savin mah sis from the manticore and the collapsing building, as well as apologise fer attackin ya without even hearin ya out." She lowered her head and continued. "It's just that, when ah saw ya holding mah sister like that I thought ya were tryin to-"

Trider raised his hand to stop the mare. "I get it, ok. You were worried and I understand."

Next up was the cyan pegasus. "I'm Rainbow Dash, the best flier in Equestria and the future Wonder-" She was cut off as Twilight coughed. "I mean, the name's Rainbow Dash and I'm..." She struggled to say the next few words. "Look, I'm sorry for attacking you, kay?"

"Sure." he shrugged.

Rainbow wanted to say something about his response, but suddenly a mass of pink jumped next to the patient and gave a bear hug, while burying his head in her valley of tits.

"HithereI'mPinkiePieandI'msuperdupersorryforblastingyouwithmypartycannon,soIhopewecanstillbegoodfriends.OhwhatamIsayingofcoursewewillbefriends,whodoesn'tlikebeingfriendswitheverypony.Imeantheauthorwouldn'tbesodumbastomakeyouhateme,becauseeveryponylovesmeand..." she said in one single breath. She failed to notice he was starting to turn blue until Twilight warned her about it.

"Pinkie you're choking him." she shouted.

The pink mare looked down at the man and let go of him giving an awakward laugh. "Heh, sorry about that." She slowly descended beneath the bed until she was standing next to her friends again.

Gasping for air he gave Pinkie a glare before speaking. "Okay first up, learn about personal space, second, do that again and I'll break your arms, finally, does anyone have any fucking clue what she said?"

The mares glared at him from the threat he threw at their friend. "She asked if you could forgive her for blasting you with her cannon and asked if you would want to be her friend."

He closed his eyes as he rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. "Not unless she learnes to give someone their space, but otherwise maybe."

Satisfied with the answer the mare leaped into the air lifting her arms and shouting. "Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!"

Shaking his head at the pink mare he thought. "She will be nuisance." He then looked back at the group. "So who's next?"

"I belive that would be me." said Rarity. "Although I would rather not after what you said to me not just a moment ago, I will be the better pony and admit my mistake." She looked at him with an icy glare and venomusly spit at him. "I am sorry for assaulting you and calling you such mean things." "Even though you deserved it." she added under her breath so nopony could hear, but it didn't slip past the man.

"Whatever." was his only reply.

Rarity huffed and raised her head upwards and away from him. Twilight decided to step in and pushed Fluttershy forward. "C'mon don't be afraid he won't hurt you."

"That depends." he thought.

The shy mare fidgeted with her hands and was picking at the ground with one of her hoofs, trying to figure out what to say. "Umm, hi my name is Fluttershy." she said or rather whispered.

Trider however was still able to hear her well enough. "Yep, definetly don't like her." he thought. He gave a small smile and replied. "A pleasure."

All that remained were the two giantesses. "I'm guessing you two are the 'important guests' Red Heart told me about?" he speculated.

The white one gave him a warm smile, before she replied. "You are correct in assuming so. I am Princess Celestia and this is my sister."

The dark one continued to glare at him, as she introduced herself. "My name is Princess Luna and you are well to remember that."

Trider was about to rebut, but Twilight was quicker. "Well now that we have introduced ourselves, we would like to know your name, if you don't mind."

Annoyed, at the mare cutting him off like that, he sighed. "The name's Trider Lykosgrothia. Yes I am well aware my name sounds weird and you can just call me Trider, I also prefer it." He took a breath as he continued. "And let me make one thing clear, despite accepting your apologies I still haven't forgiven any of you, beside Twilight and Fluttershy."

The girls were flabergasted and Rainbow decided to speak for all of them. "What? Why? We said we were sorry. So why can't you forgive us? And I can understand you're not angry at Fluttershy, since she wasn't there, but why do you forgive Twilight when she fought you as well?"

Trider waited for her to finish, before he answered her. "For multiple reasons. One, while you did say you are sorry, some of you didn't mean that. Two it'll take a lot more than just a sorry to make me forgive you for what you did. Third, I am just stubborn like that and if you don't like it, deal with it." He waited to see if she would reply to what he said, but she stayed quiet, so he continued. "As for why I forgave Twilight is because unlike the rest of you she didn't insult me and she didn't really fight me. All she did was restrain me for a bit and that was all. I can hardly call that fighting, maybe a struggle, but nothing more."

The mares were left speechless and wanted to say something to that, but were halted by Celestia. "You can resolve this dispute at another time. Right now we have some questions to ask our paitent here."

Trider just glared at her as she said that. "No way. I already told the doctor that I will not be telling anyone about me or my-"

"We know what you said, as doctor Remedy told us about your little argument." she said. "You say that we will use the information to learn about your kind and your weaknesses, fearing we might try and attack your people, am I correct?" He nodded and Celestia continued. "You do not have to fear of something like that happening, we do not seek conquest or war, we simply want to learn more about you so we can understand you better."

The Kanisar just gave her 'are you kidding me' look, before he replied. "You actually expect me to just belive what you say. I know I'm not the brightest, but I'm also not an idiot. So let me say it once again so you can understand it more clearly." He lifted himself off the headrest he was leaning on and spoke. "No. Fucking. Way."

The Mane 6 gasped at the profanity he used when speaking to the princess, but Celestia did nothing, just sighed. Then it was Lunas turn to speak up. "Then let me put it in a way you'll understand better." Her voice while elegant, carried such an icy tone Trider could swear he saw his breath for a moment. "You are currently in our kingdom where me and my sister rule, where we have the power. Although you weren't the perpetrator of the fight that happened five days ago, you are still responsible for major damages that happened while you were going at it. Not to mention hurting our subjects and even planning on killing one of them. Just for that we could send you to the Canterlot Dungeons for so long you will be an old man when you get out. And if you resist do know that me and my sister will not hold back to protect our subjects." Her voice suddenly went from icy cold to neutral as she continued. "But we are willing to overlook that, if you agree to comply to our whishes and do as we say."

Triders eyes were the size of pinpricks after she finished her monologue. Even though the mare is supposedly weaker than him, he still felt that what she said wasn't a threat or warning, but a statement. He shook his head as he collected his thoughts and began to think over about what she said.

Once done he asked the princesses. "Before I answer I would like to know just one thing." The sisters nodded and let him continue. "How good are your spaceships and your space technology?"

The room went quiet as everypony stared at the man like he just grew a second head. The same thought running through their minds.

"What is a spaceship?" the asked simultaneously.

That wasn't the answer he expected to hear. "Wait you honestly don't know what a spaceship is?"

"Not a clue partner." answered Applejack.

After hearing that he felt relief, but also worry. "So that means they can't get to my planet and attack it, but I also can't get back to it, if they don't have them." he thought.

"Alright I guess I can answer some of your questions, but I will only answer those I feel comfortable answering and I also want to ask you some questions. Are you okay with that?" he asked the group.

Celestia smiled and nodded. "Of course, we won't force you to answer something you think is too presonal."

Satisfied he leaned on the headrest again. "Alright then, lets get started then shall we?"

At that Twilight levitated a quill and a parchment out of her backpack to document everything, about this new species. "Ooooh, I'm so excited. A brand new species that nopony has ever heard of or seen before." Her excitement unnerved the Kanisar, but he chose to ignore it.

When she was ready Twilight began the interrogation. "For starters why don't you tells us exactly what you are and where you originate from?"

"Well my kind is called Kanisar and like me the rest of my kind have wolf like features, although some have more than others, like they have more hair, their fangs are larger, some even have small snouts, but those are rare cases." he replied. "As for where I'm from I come from Inu and was born in the capital city called Lupias."

As she was writing everything down she stopped and looked from her notes. "Inu? Lupias? I've never heard of any of these places." She turned to her friends and the princesses. "Have you?" They all shook their heads.

Trider scoffed at that. "And for a good reason. Inu isn't a land or a kingdom." He leaned forward and gave a smug smile. "Inu is my home planet."

You could hear a pin fall as everypony was staring at the man with open mouths and shock plastered across their faces. "A-a-a d-different planet? You mean to say you're an alien?" asked Twilight. He nodded and that is when Rainbow started to laugh.

"Pfffwahahahahaha, yeah right. Nice one, you almost got me there." she continued to laugh, but when she saw the stare trider was giving her she stopped. "Oh my Goddess you're not joking."

Twilight wasn't convinced either. "Are you sure you're from another planet. I mean maybe you're just from a very secluded island or land nopony has discovered yet and your people haven't gone past your borders to discover new lands. Right?"

He could only deadpan at what she said. "Yeah I'm certain. Besides the obvious, that my race populates nearly every corner of the planet, ever since I came here I've seen plants and animals that my planet doesn't have. How's that for proof?"

Twilight however didn't want to give up just yet. "That doesn't mean you're from another planet. Different plants and animals don't grow on every part of the world, some are more adapted to live in cold environments like-"

"We have two moons."

That statement stopped the mare in her tracks as words simply died in her mouth after hearing that. "Okay, maybe you are an alien."

Suddenly Pinkie started to bounce around, cheering. "This is amazing. Not only are we making friends with a brand new pony, but an alien new pony." Suddenly she stopped and gasped. "You know what this means?" she asked no one in particular. "It means that I will have to change your Welcome to Ponyville party to Welcome to Equis and more specifically Ponyville party. I should start preparing right now. Uhhhh, but I really wanna stay here and listen to your stories. Oh, duh. I can just read it later when I have free time. Silly me." She then began to ramble off about what will she need for the party as well as who she should invite.

"Pssst Applejack." he beckoned the orange mare to get closer and he whispered in her ear. "What is she going on about?"

The mare chuckled as she answered him. "Well ya see Pinkie here, is Ponyville official party planner. She plans all the parties the townsponies ask of her. But when a new pony comes to Ponyville, she always throws them a party so they can get to know the townsponies better and get a better view of what it's like in Ponyville."

"Speaking of which." The pink mare suddenly popped up between the two startling them. "What kind of cake do you want to have for your party? Strawberry? Vanilla? Chocolate? Everypony loves chocolate."

"What's a cake?" the Kanisar foolishly asked.

At that moment for the first time Trider experienced what true terror is. The mare pulled him so close to her their faces were touching and she had a look, a look the man has never seen in anyone. She spoke in a tone so serious it felt like he was in a life or death situation. "You mean to tell me, you never, had cake in your entire life? Ever?" each time she emphasized a word her eyes would pop out, scaring the man even more.

"N-no?" he said trying to act brave and failing.

She immediatelly let go and was gone, before anypony could even process what happened.

"What in the name of all that is holy was that?" he said after he got his bearings.

"Nothing good I belive. This is Pinkie we're talking about so who knows what she might do." said Rainbow Dash.

"We should just go back to the questioning, before anything else happens." said Rarity.

Everyone nodded and thus they continued. This time however Trider had a question. "Just correct me if I'm wrong, but I belive you call yourself ponies, while this planets name is Eques and we're in a place called Ponyville."

Twilight nodded. "Precisely. The kingdom Princess Celestia and Princess Luna rule over is called Equestria, while there are other nations we should just skip them for now." She explained. "Now what I want to know next is how did you get here and are there any others who came with you?"

Trider pondered for a moment. "I'm not exactly certain how it happened, but one moment I was standing on a rooftop talking with an acquaintance of mine, when a light enveloped me and suddenly I was falling to the ground. When I landed I was in some sort of desert. Afterwards I tried to find my way to the nearest settlement and wandered off into this forest. There I was travelling for about two weeks before I found your sister and you pretty much know how the rest goes. As for if anybody else came here with me, I belive I came here alone, unless they got teleported somewhere else."

When he finished telling about his arrival Twilight looked at him with a fearful expression. "You said you landed here over two weeks ago, right?" He nodded. "Sweet Celestia."

"What's wrong Twilight?" asked Fluttershy in concern.

"Do you remember that spell I was trying out half a month ago." she asked and everypony nodded. "I think it may be the reason why Trider ended up in Equestria in the first place."

When she said that everypony realized she might be right, with the exception of the Kanisar who just looked at her. "Are you saying you brought me here?" She nodded. "How?"

Twilight took a pause to try and come up with the best way how to explain his presence here and her connection to it. "Well you see, over two weeks ago I was practicing some spells and when we were finishing off, I wanted to try a new spell that I came up with. It combined three different spells which would in the end allow me to observe events throughout space and time." Trider only nodded at everything she said, understanding only bits and pieces of what she was saying. "However the spell went awry and ended almost killing me and my assisstant, as well as destroying major part of the location where Iwas practising. I think that when the spell went haywire, it reached through space and time and someho dragged you from your world into ours." she finished off.

Trider just sat there trying to process everything that was told to him. "So you used some magic shit and accidentally brought me here?"

She nodded. "Yes." She closed her eyes and was expecting she would feel his righteous fury, but it didn't come. In fact when she opened her eyes he was smiling.

"That's great." If she wasn't confused she was certainly now. Why would he think this was great? He was taken from his own world, from his friends and family. How could he be so happy?

"What do you mean by 'great'?" she asked concerned.

"Well if you brought me here then that means you can also send me back, right?" he said in a happy tone.

Immediatelly Twilight felt even sadder. She almost didn't want to tell him, but it was better she told him the truth than to lie.

"Trider listen to me." He gave her all of his attention. "I can't send you back."

His smile wavered at the news and his expression changed to that of anger. "What do you mean you can't send me back? You brought me here so you can also send me back can't you?"

Before Twilight could reply, Celestia decided it would be better if she explained the situation to him. "Trider please calm down and listen to me. It's not Twilights fault you are currently here, she couldn't have known this would happen." he seemed to calm down a bit so she continued. "The reason why we can't send you back is because this spell is very difficult to preform perfectly and even if we could there are still too many variables to consider."

"Go on." he said.

She nodded. "She pulled you through space and time. Even if we knew where your planet was, we couldn't be certain you would land on it, thousands of hooves in the air or even in the planet itself. We can't be that precise. And even if by some chance we did succeed in safley teleporting you back, we still wouldn't be able to put in the right time. Who knows how far from the future or past Twilight pulled you from, so we would only be guessing at what time you dissappeared. So do you now understand why it is impossible to send you back?"

Trider gave a deep breath and nodded. Happy he didn't become angry Celestia smiled. All of sudden he swung his arm at the wall behind him, punching a hole in it and startling everypony. "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?" he shouted. "YOU MEAN TO TELL ME I'M STUCK ON THIS MOTHERFUCKING PLANET FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, WHILE EVERYONE I KNOW IS EITHER DEAD OR HASN'T BEEN BORN YET?" Everypony just looked at him with pity, they couldn't even imagine what it feelt like to lose everyone and everything you ever knew and loved. "Dammit." he said just above whisper. "DAMMIT, DAMMIT DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT." he yelled repeatedly and continuing to punch the wall, until he punched through it. Breathing heavily he finally began to settle down, his fist bleeding.

After he calmed down Celestia used her magic to fix the wall and heal the wound he caused himself. When he felt tingling on his wrist he looked at it seeing it glow in a golden aura. He then looked at Celestia and saw the same aura around her horn.

"What are you doing?" he asked her.

She gave him a warm smile and answered him. "Just healing your wound and fixing the mess you made."

"I know that, but I mean how are you doing it?"

She gave him a confused look. "I'm using my magic, can't you use it as well?"

It was his turn to be confused. "No I can't. What gave you the idea I could?"

She shifted her gaze to her student. "Twilight told me you used some sort of magic when you were fighting, as well when you saved Apple Bloom and two other mares."

It dawned onto Trider what she meant. "Oh that. That's not magic it's Ki."

"Ki?" asked everypony in the room simultaneously.

"Let me guess, you have no idea what that is?" They all nodded. "Well how do you guys use your magic?"

"It depends on what pony race you are." Twilight began to explain. "Earth ponies, like Applejack and Pinkie, use magic which helps them to grow and harvest different kinds of food and materials, while also possesing more physical strength than other races." She then pointed at Rainbow and Fluttershy. "Pegasi on the other hand can use magic that helps them fly and control the weather, as well as the ability to walk on clouds." Trider wanted to comment on that statement, but decided to ignore, because magic. "Next up are the unicorns, like myself and Rarity, and we can use ethereal magic, to move objects, teleport and pretty much anything we can be capable of." She demonstrated by levitating the jug that was on the nightstand. When she set it back down she continued. "And lastly are alicorns, the only ones being Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, since they posses trait of every other race they can also use all of their magic."

"i'm gonna guess this, but you guys use some form of energy inside yourself to manipulate objects around yourself and you call that magic. Am I right?" he asked.

"Actually that is exactly how we use magic." Twilight said impressed.

Trider smirked. "I'm too good." he thought. "Well manipulating is Ki similar to how you use magic, except we don't use this energy inside ourselves to manipulate our environment, but we use it in it pure raw form." He demonstrated by creating small energy ball in his hand. "This one of the basic forms of Ki manipulations. Once we create this energy we can reshape it to better suit our purpose." He made the ball dissappear and he continued. "Ki is directly connected to our bodies, it's almost like our lifeforce. And just like our bodies we can improve our Ki pool and ability to use through intense training and by keeping our bodies in shape."

"What about that thing yoa used when ya fought us, ya know that weird black smoke thing?" asked Applejack.

"That's right. I also wanted to ask you about that. What was that? It looked exactly like if you were using dark magic?"

Trider thought about what they were talking about when it came to him. "Oh you mean my Feral Unleashing? Everyone of my kind can use that."

"Feral Unleashing. What is that exactly and why do you call it that?" asked Princess Luna.

"Well you see my kind is closely related to wolfs and because of that we also have some of their instincts. Usually we can control them, but we can still get angry very quickly, if you haven't noticed already. However if we let those instincts loose, we unlock our more primal side, gaining incredible strength and speed, consequently greater Ki. But in turn we become highly aggressive and we partially loose control over ourselfs. By that I mean we loose our inhibitions and we no longer care if we kill our enemy."

After his explanation they all looked at him scared and worried. "So you can use your Feral Unleashing by getting angry? Isn't that kind of dangerous?" asked the concerned princess of the night.

He shook his head, before he explained further. "No, only children have that problem. For us adults it's easy to control when we use our Feral Unleashing, though there are cases when we still use it when we get extremely angry, but that is very rare. Usually we can use whenever we want it." A dark aura then enveloped him and his body transformed just like it did in the fight with the girls. The Mane 6 backed off, expecting him to attack, while Fluttershy hid behind the other bed in the room. Princess Luna however got into a battle stance and got ready to fight and Celestia only watched with curiosity. Trider laughed at their reaction. "Chill out guys, like I said I have complete control over myself even if I am like this." He then turned back to normal and everypony relaxed.

"Now I see why you call it Feral Unleashing, when you use that you look like a wild beast than a sapient creature." said Luna.

"Exactly."

The clock struck 7 o'clock and the sisters looked at each other. "We will have to leave soon dear sister." said the night princess.

"You are correct Luna, but there is still something we must talk about with our new friend." Celestia looked at Trider and spoke. "Since it is now clear you are here to stay I have to ask what do you intend to do?"

The Kanisar lowered his gaze and numerous thoughts began to flood his mind. "Can I even adapt to this world? And if I do, what will I do then? All I knew till now was how I can fight? Maybe I can join the military? Nah, that would mean I'd have to obey commands of some jackass. Maybe Icould find a job?" These and many more thoughts ran through his head until he sighed. "Frankly, I have no idea what I will do."

"Well until you do, I have a proposition for you." Celestia had his attention so she continued. "I will allow you to stay here in Equestria, give you food and shelter, until you can stand on your own two hooves. What do you say?"

Trider began to ponder what the princess offered him. "What's the catch?" he said looking her in the eyes. "There is no fucking way you would give me such an offer without a but."

Celestia giggled at how he phrased it. "You are correct. While I understand that you being here is out of your control, you are still an unknown factor. You proved to be quite violent as well as dangerous. So while you will be living here I want you to behave yourself and follow our laws." Trider could agree to that, but what she said next threw him for a loop. "And I also want you to make some friends, during your stay here."

He looked at her like she just said he had told him to shave his head and gave her a deadpanned look. "Seriously." She just smiled and nodded. "Fine I guess I can do that much."

"Excellent. Now for where you'll be staying." Saying that she looked at Twilight. "I think it would only be fair, that the one who brought you here would also be the one to house you, until you get your own place."

Twilight looked between her teacher and her soon to be guest. "It would be my pleasure."

"Watch what you say, Sparkle. Each one of my roommates would disagree with that statement." He laughed and the others soon joined in. Then they heard a loud rumbling. They looked at Trider and he scratched his head. "Heh, guess it's dinner time."

"It is rather late, everypony should go back home. I belive you all have things you have to do." said Princess Celestia.

They all nodded and Rainbow even yawned. The doors then opened up and in walked nurse Red Heart with a trolley and a plate of food on it. "Hope you're hungry." she said.

"Like a wolf. No pun intended." he replied.

She put the plate on the extendable table on the bed and Trider just stared at it.

"Is something wrong?" asked the nurse seeing his displeasure.

"Yeah," he replied. "Where's the meat?"

Everypony in the room turned pale and looked at the Kanisar with shock and fear.

"What?" he asked confused. "All I want is some meat, is that really so much to ask for?"
