I'M STAR SWIRL THE FRIGGIN' BEARDED

by Gravestone


THE FIRST CHAPTER

  Okay let me clarify a few things one I am not a brony but I have watched a few episodes of My Little Pony Friendship is a Magic when I am stuck babysitting my two nieces so I do know some of the names of the characters. I must admit that the episodes I watched were kind of interesting although I didn't like the idea that the main male character I think his name was Spock or Spike or something you know the dragon yeah anyways I didn't like the idea of how he was always treated. But anyway let's get back to me and this crazy crap that happened. It was a cold and cloudy day so I was stuck inside watching more of that pony show with the two hell spawns named Lindsay and Lacey. We just finished watching a repeat of the two-part episode called Princess Twilight. I know it was a repeat because the last two parter’s I had to sit through were called Twilight's Kingdom. Although to be honest in that one I was hoping the bad guy would win just, so I didn't have to watch any more of them. I know I'm a jerk but still, some people can only take talking ponies for so long before they snap. Anyways as I was saying I just sat through an hour of pure torture when I heard a knock at the door getting up I made my way to the front door and look through the peephole to see who was. Standing outside was a delivery man holding a box. I opened the door to greet him and find out what he was doing at my house.

"Excuse me, sir, sorry for bothering you but I have a priority package for a Mr. Alexander Magix." 
The delivery guy said looking at the electronic tablet being held in his hand.

"That's me and I don't remember ordering anything you sure it's the right name and address?" I said as I reached over to the little table standing next to the door where my keys and wallet were always put.

"Yes, sir I'm positive and must be one of those free samples that the company sends out to random people which is kinda strange the name of the company that is I've never heard of it before Discorded enterprises." The deliveryman said as he looked on the tablet through the information.

Shrugging my shoulders and rolling my eyes I showed in my driver's license and preceded to sign my name on the tablet.

"Thank you, sir, and have a nice day." He said as he handed me the box which I noticed was a pretty good size for something like a free sample.

Shutting the door and turning around I walked back into the living room carrying the box still wondering what could be inside of it. My thoughts were pulled away when both my niece is running up to me wondering what I had. Ignoring their questions eye preceded to carry the box to my dining room table and set it there thinking later I might open it up to find out what's in it. Luckily for me, the pestering of my two nieces stopped when a knock at the door was heard as well as the call for my sister saying that they were here to pick up their girls. Saying hi and by to them I watched as they got into their minivan and drove away. Being grateful that I didn't have to watch the girls any longer it's not that I don't care about my family it's just that I have an antisocial disorder simply put I can't stand being around people for very long. Small groups of 5 to 7 is what I can handle any more than that I become claustrophobic I've had this problem all my life. So anyways I make my way back into my house and I stop to look at the box on the table, and my curiosity starts to get the better of me. And proceed to open the box to find out just what's inside. And that's when everything weird could happen did happen. Let me explain once I open the box and looked inside of it I saw a blue wizard's hat and cloak both with stars and crescent moons on them as well as a bunch of bells. But that wasn't the weird part the weird part was when the hat and cloak decided to float out of the box and fly over and land on my head and wrap around my neck all on their own. Just to let you know I was completely freaking out but for some strange reason, I couldn't move a muscle. After a while, I began to feel I had movement in my body once again. So I tried the most logical thing and get the two possessed things off of me as quick as possible. Which didn't quite work the hat couldn't be removed from my head and there was no clasp told the cloak around my neck. My self-induced panic had to stop when I heard a voice calling my name.

"Alexander, can you hear me?" The disembodied voice said.

"Yes, I can hear you who are you, and what the hell is going on?" I said in a mixture of anger and panic.

"Well that's the thing you see I'm you but I'm you from a different dimension." The disembodied voice said with a little hesitance in it.

"What do you mean me and what the hell are you talking about different dimensions?" I said while I looked around trying to pinpoint where the voice was coming from.

"A different dimension as in a different reality. How can I not explain that any simpler?" The voice said with a little agitation.

"Okay, fine different dimension reality whatever. What do you want from me?" I said is I went back to stand in front of the box on the table again.

"You see I do not possess a physical form in my dimension anymore I am merely thought now but you possess a physical form I wish to offer you a chance at an adventure of a lifetime. You will experience things you have never dreamed possible and see things only in one's dreams." The voice said sounding like it was pitching the concept for a new adventure movie.

"Sure why not I could use a little adventure in my boring life," I said rolling my eyes and thinking this is nothing more than a bad practical joke.

"Excellent now you won't feel a thing and the transformation to your new pony form will be instant." The voice said with a happy tone.

"Wait, what ?" Is all I said before everything went black.

I don't know how long I was unconscious but I began to stir hearing voices that sounded feminine.

"Sister can it be true is of him?" One of the female voices said.

"I believe so he did promise that he would return when he was truly needed again." Said the other female voice sounding more motherly than the first.

Feeling the grogginess leave me I began to slowly open my eyes. Allowing my vision to clear I began to look around and noticed that I was no longer in my house but in a large room with a marble floor. Ignoring the voices and the gasps eye preceded to get myself up off the floor. Finding myself standing on for legs I almost began to freak out again but I remembered the voice telling me that I would be any pony body. Standing at my full height I shook my body like a dog would remove the water from their fur only to hear the jingling of a bunch of bells. Looking back at my side I noticed I was still wearing that cloak. Looking up I could see the brim of the hat as well. Letting out a deep sigh I decided to look for something I could use as a mirror. After all, I was kind of curious about what I looked like. Looking to my left I saw some ponies in seats of golden armor. A few of them carried a shield making my way over to them I ignored the voices of the two females behind me. Standing in front of the pony with a shield I moved to position myself so I could see my reflection. Looking at myself I turned my head side to side seeing that I was a white pony with a beard and then I noticed on my forehead I had a horn.

"Okay, I guess I'm a unicorn then," I said in a voice similar to my own but a little deeper.

As I continued inspecting myself in the reflection I suddenly caught movement in the corner of my eye. Turning my head I noticed two ponies approaching me one possessed fur as wide as my own and the mane and tail almost the colors of a rainbow. The other had dark blue for and its mane and tail resembled the night sky with stars. What caught my attention the most was that they both possessed a horn and wings. Turning to face them I recognize them from a couple of the episodes I was forced to watch with my nieces. But I couldn't quite place their names. I then heard a voice in my head telling me to bow and addressed them by their names.

"Greetings Princess Celestia Princess Luna it is a pleasure seeing both of you again," I said as I bowed to each of them wondering why I said the words seeing and again?

"Is it really you old friend you truly have returned as you promised." The one now identified as Celestia said with tears forming in her eyes.

"Do you say this is not a cruel joke by Discord tell us, that thy are our old friend and teacher Star Swirl?" The one called Luna said with tears forming in her eyes as well.

As I looked at them I noticed that I was approximately the same height as Luna yet I still needed to look up to see Celestia in the face. Looking upon both of them I could tell they wanted my answer to be yes so taking a deep breath I closed my eyes to give them a truthful answer.

"Yes and no you see I am this Star Swirl guy and I'm also not you see." I began to say before being interrupted as they both lunged at me and began to hug and cry telling me how much they missed me and were glad to see me back.

As all of this was happening I could only think of one thing. Whoever this Star Swirl the Bearded guy was, that I hate him and if he was still alive I'd beat the ever-loving crap out of him or I'll just find his grave and use it as a toilet for putting me through all this.
