The entire room full of ponies was now looking at you and Rainbow Dash like you both were a couple of loons. You and Rainbow Dash were also looking at each other like a couple of loons. Snapping back to reality, you look around the room nervously, everypony watching you because of your little outburst. If the moment couldn't get more awkward, Rarity was stunned that Fancypants was standing in the doorway of one of Pinkie Pie's parties.
“Ahem, anypony know if Miss Rarity is here?” His heavy noble accent making “here” sound like “He-are”
“Y-y-you want me?” Piped up the nervous white mare.
“Why yes, that day where you visited as a guest of Princess Celestia, i've been hoping to meet you again. However you haven't been back to Canterlot so when I heard you owned a store out here in Ponyville I hoped on the first train out here.”
“But why?” Curiosity now getting the better of you.
“Hmm yes, I was hoping to ask Miss Rarity on a date.” Without a single studder, or flinch he managed to ask somepony out in front of an entire crowd of ponies. What a boss! You thought.
Rarity of course was now flabberghasted and didn't know what to say, utterly speechless one might say. As if the worst could happen you start sizing yourself up to Fancypants hoping you'd find at least one flaw in him that could make Rarity like you over him. Alas you could not find one... single... flaw.
“Oh but of course Fancypants, i'd be delighted. Shall we step outside to discuss the small details?” Rarity now had the biggest smile on her face.
“Fancy that, alright then Miss Rarity, if you'd be so kind as to follow me?”
“You've always been quite a charmer.” Giggling to herself as she excited the building.
You couldn't make heads or tails of what the HECK that just happened. Did I just get, upwinded by, someone not even from here? That nervous look you had before dissipated and was replaced with a hint of sadness. Rainbow Dash was standing next to you, watching to see your reaction.
“Wa-how-I-I need to go. I think I left my fridge running.” Clearly you weren't home in mind because that was one of the lamest excuses you've ever made. Making for the door you opt to take the backdoor because you remembered how Rarity and Fancyschmancy were outside.
Rainbow Dash watched you walk out and couldn't help but feel a little guilty for what just happened, Fluttershy flew over to Rainbow and reassured her it wasn't her fault. The rest of the gang went on in that party unknowingly of what just happened.
One thing you thought for sure. A new pony in town, not one person really knows you. So who would care? That thought scared you more than anything. Even during high school you felt that way, not a single soul cared, and not a single soul would hope to see you again. This time however, it's Ponyville's turn.
At this time you were running down the road, a very small tear forming in your left eye, why the right one didn't want to cry is beyond you. At the very least you found a small secluded tree just 3 minutes away from your house and you decided to sit down next to it. Plopping your rump down you lay back against the bark and quietly sit there watching the stars. It was the afternoon, and night time, was the best time.
On many occasion you remembered taking your little sister out at night to watch the stars, and show her the stellar constellations. You and her would go out to the grassy fields near the house, lay on your backs and watch the stars. By the time your sister was 5 she could tell you every single constellation that was visible to you and her. The Nightmare Night that Princess Luna attended for the first time was the very same night you first looked at the stars for all their beauty. Night time was your favorite time.
Relaxing your head against the tree you hear the faint chirpings of some small birds in a nest above you, the wind blowing through your mane, and the heavy rustling of some leaves above yo- wait a second, that sounds mighty loud for a breeze or squirrel. Without a second to spare you look up and see a cyan colored pegasus with a yellow colored pegasus sitting way up in the tree.
Quickly trying to salvage your manliness you wipe away the tears forming over your eyes. Just then it clued in: Why do I care so much about a random pony I met? Why am I crying over her? Remembering that two pegasi were looking at you waiting for you to speak, you pipe up and remove all sadness within.
“What do you want?” Sounding snide. Great, why couldn't I say something else to make me not seem like a jerk who doesn't want friends. Your expression deadpanned and you looked away hoping to restart the conversation.
“We came to see how you were. It's not everyday we see Rarity so uppity-up about a pony.” Rainbow was waving her hoof in front of her face like she was trying to lighten the mood.
“Oh yes.” Squeaked the yellow pegasus. Fluttershy was it?
“Thanks, but it's clear Rarity likes that Fancyschmancy guy. She even agreed to go out with him.”
“Nonsense, that's just a load of hooey. It was a spur of the moment, impulse kinda thing. She likes you and was hoping tonight that you would ask her on a date. And the only reason i'm telling you this is because I kind of owe you for knocking you upside the head on accident yesterday.”
“And what do you propose I should do huh?!” You got to your hooves quickly and stamped the ground with a forehoof. “What do YOU think I should do against someone who's rich, popular, and good looking?!” You belched out with an angry tone.
Rainbow Dash flew right up in your face and gave you a scowling look. You could feel her breath on your muzzle, and with an angry tone declared.
“SHOW her what you're made of. SHOW her that you care. SHOW her something so spectacularly awesome that it would even wow even the Princess's!”
“Alright, alright! Just please don't hurt me!” Scared as you are now remembering this was one pony you DIDN'T want to get angry. “So where should I start then?”
“Try the library Twilight may be able to help you.” The scared yellow pegasus floated down in front of you and flinched a bit at your sudden look.
“Of course! Thanks you two! I'll be sure to change things around!” You yelled back while full on bolting for the library. The party should have ended by now I hope.
The two pegasis watched you depart and waved bye before heading their own directions. Probably home.
As you arrive at the library you see that some lights are on and that must mean somepony is home. Walking right up to the door you knock on it and wait a few seconds. No answer. You knock again. And this time the door slowly creaks open revealing not a single pony standing there. Must have been opened with magic.
“Come in!” You hear from the library opening.
You slowly walk into the lobby of the library expecting to see somepony there to greet you, instead you're met with a small baby dragon. Wait, a baby dragon?!!!
“Gah!!” You yelp as you jump 5 feet into the air. “A... baby... d-d-dragon!”
“My name is Spike, nice to meet you.” The tiny dragon said, without even realizing he just scared the living daylights out of you.
“N-n-nice to m-meet you S-Spike.” Calming down a bit your tone becomes more sure of itself, and you begin to stutter less. “I'm Thunder Dash. Rainbow Dash said I should come see Twilight”
“About what?” The baby dragon was curious but had no idea it was a matter you wished to keep to yourself.
“Unfortunately Spike, I can't tell you. Sorry.” Your face was dead serious.
Moments after the awkward silence that befell the room after telling Spike you couldn't tell him, Twilight entered with her mane in a mess and baggy eyes, seems she didn't sleep for a long time.
“Uh Twilight, what happened to your mane? And you look really tired.”
“Oh hi Thunder, I've been meaning to speak with you, if you'll follow me into my private study, we can begin.” She began to walk into a small door located just right of the entrance to the library, and you quickly followed.
The room seemed spacious enough for studies, a few bookshelves here-and-there and a candle or two burning through the night, the room of course was a mess with books strewn all over the floor. That explains the messy mane and baggy eyes, she was studying all night, but for what? You wondered.
“Alright, I know you have good intentions and you seem nice, and also that you really like Rarity. So here's what I need to do before I can trust you. I need to see into your past. Once I have confirmed you're not a bad pony, I will trust you to go on a date with Rarity.”
“What are you her guardian? And I don't think going into my memories is something you should do, they're kind of, oh I don't know, Private?!”
“Look do you want me to trust you with one of my best friends? Or would you rather try without me and see how far you get.”
Quickly pondering through your thoughts, nothing embarrassing of your past came to mind, you don't recall that anyway, although you do recall thinking of things you don't know of, like a semi-truck.
“Alright, but make it quick and don't try to peer into my deepest darkest secrets, okay? Also once we're done I kind of need your help.”
“Okay tell me what you need help with only after I've done this. Now this may be awkward, but lie down on the spare bed over there in the corner.”
You get over to the bed a lie down as you normally would if you were to go to sleep. Twilight followed shortly after and walked right up to the bed.
“Okay, you'll be able to see the memories I can see with this spell, also too, the memories that show are random, so I won't know which show up. From what I know of researching the spell, is that it goes in chronological order, albeit random order in a small timeframe.”
“Alright let's just get this over with.” You close your eyes and await the spell to begin, unsure of what's going to happen.
Twilight leans in closer and the tip of her horn begins to glow a light purple, she inches closer to your forehead and touches it with her horn, as that happens the horn glows brighter and the images of memories you thought forgotten began to show up. However they were images you were not expecting.
One image was of you as a human sitting with a big wheel in front of you moving along what looked like a road with yellow lines on the ground. Another image was of you reading a story almost exactly similar to this. A third image showed you watching the very place you're currently located! All these memories were of nothing you thought existed, and furthermore if these are your memories, what happened to you?
Going deeper and deeper into your memories, you see yourself back in high school as a teenager, on a laptop reading stories on fimfiction.net. The last memory that popped into your head was getting an email from some stranger and you opened it up saying “would you like to go to Equestria?” and there was a link, you clicked on it, and that's when the memory blanked.
“Y-y-you're a human?!!” Twilight was now scared of what might happen next.
“A what?” Your face deadpanned at the accusation. This was going to take a LOT of explanation.
