Work.....work....more work....... not the most interesting thing I could be doing but I'm having to do it anyway. Oh probably should introduce myself shouldn't i? Well my names Aaron, and I'm a human male, the most common species around here. I have her black hair, and light blue eyes. And I most commonly wear a red shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes. Now my life is far from adventurous, exciting, or just anything remotely interesting. I wake up, get dressed, go to work, screw around with alot of cloth for about 12 hours, go home, eat, shower, then MAYBE get a little free time before I hit the hay. I always long for something interesting to happen to me in any way, shape or form. Well I just might get my wish, in a unexpected way.
---------------------------------
"Guys I'm home!" I said as i walked through the front door. I looked around to only see my sister on the couch waving and not saying a word as she was on Netflix. I peaked over her to see what she was watching, and from what I saw she was watching a show called my little pony. I had fond memories of that show when I watched it, and I'm still surprised that it's still going on. I haven't watched it in a while but from what I heard there's a sort of demon filly in the show now. Don't know if that's true but I'd have to check that out later. I walked past my sister and headed to my room, like usual, but not before I grabbed a sandwich and scarfed it down along the way. When I opened the door I was met with my messy bed and my computer at it's side. But when I walked closer to my bed I saw something shiny just sticking out of my messy wad of covers. I sat down on my bed as i tried to pry the shiny thing from my sheets. When i finally untangled it from my sheets it shined even brighter than before. Even as it shined like I was staring at a light bulb i was still able to make out what it looked like.
It was a fairly big stone, about the size of my palm, as it was cut into a diamond like shape. But what was weird (besides it producing more light than a bulb) was that when I looked at it in a different angle the colors changed on it for some reason. First it was lavender with pink and dark purple stripes, then it was pink, than white with hints of purple swirls, than yellow with pink swirls, than orange with bits of red, than it had all the colors of the rainbow, then purple with bits of blue and pink. Then the final color was just a mashup of orange, purple, and blue swirls, which to me I liked the most out of them all along with the pink one.
As I was wondering how this strange stone even got into my bedroom in the first place I heard very faint voices, as if they where singing in harmony. I looked around in confusion trying to find the source of the sound. When i went to scratch my head with the hand that had the stone in the singing got louder. I lowered the stone, and it got weaker. I then placed it up against my ear to hear what it was singing. I heard 10 voices in total, 7 sounded like angels while the other 3 sounded like a broken record but I tried to ignore that as I listened. From what I could hear it sounded like they where singing "go to sleep" and "your dreams will come true".
"Ok......i now have a diamond shaped stone that is a glorified flashlight, change color, and can sing...." I said as i looked over the stone one last time before just shoving it in my pocket as I flopped down on my bed out of exhaustion. "Maybe this will make at least a bit more sense tomorrow." I reassured myself as I threw my covers over me and dozed off to sleep, When I did fall asleep the stone shined like a star as my room got engulfed in light, and then.....darkness.
-------------------
"Wake up my little human" said a feminine voice as I stirred in my sleep. Then something was nudging my side as it felt like a horseshoe was being poked into my side. "Come on now, don't keep me waiting" said the voice again as I groaned and complied by opening my eyes. When i did what I saw where stars, lots of them. When i sat up I realized that I wasn't in my bed......or even my house. I looked around to only see stars, stars in the sky, stars on all the mountains, and stars beneath me. But the little patch of stars I was sitting on clustered up under me as to keep me from falling. I got up to stretch my limbs, but in doing so I punched something furry in the face as it fell to the ground.
"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry" I said as i reached down to help it up, that's when I got my first good look at it, and I couldn't believe who I just socked in the face. If my eyes arnt imaging things than the thing on the ground was none other than princess Luna, princess of the night. I scrambled to help her up as I got very nervous all of a sudden. "I..im so s..sorry pr..pr..princess, I didn't meant to-" I tried to say as I was cut off halfway through by the princess of the night.
"Its quite alright, I've had worse done to me" she chuckled as she got up on her hooves and stood at her full height so I could get a better look at her. And I was shocked that she stood on 2 legs, at her full height she was 2 heads taller than me, her feet where hooves and she had hands, 4 fingers on each one, meaning that she's an anthropomorphic version of Luna, and to accompany this look was a long blue dress with her cutie mark on the chest area. But other than that everything else looked normal, she had dark blue fur, blue eyes, long blue horn, and a purple mane and tail with little stars in them as they magically flowed in the non existent wind.
"My my, you look a bit confused, you should know who i am Aaron" said Luna as she waved her hand in front of my face as I snapped out of my daze.
"Y..yea I know Luna it's just.....hey how do you know my name?" I said as Luna only chuckled as she lit up her horn as she levitated that weird stone out of my pocket.
"This is how" Luna said as she waved the stone in my face.
"Um, since you know about this stone, what type is it?" I said as Luna brought it over to her and rolled it around in the plan of her hand.
"My dear human, this stone cannot be found anywhere else, it's a one of a kind, it's called 'the sirens stone'" she said as she made the stone float around her.
"Wait why is it called the sirens stone" I said to Luna as she just chuckled a bit.
"I'll tell you in a bit" she said as she motioned for me to follow her, so I started to walk beside her as the stars from under us formed a path.
"Now I know your wondering what's going on" she said as I nodded my head as she waved her hand and many doors appeared. "Well to put this simply, your hear because the stone chose you for two reasons" she said as I just stared at her in confusion.
"Um....chosen for what exactly?" I said as Luna stopped in front of a door and opened it.
"For one, it chose you to experience something you could only dream of" she said as when she opened the door what was on the other side was breathtaking. I could see all of equestria just layed out before me as I was awestruck.
"Hehe see I told you, something only you can dream of." She giggled as she closed the door and kept on walking. "Now before you go out there and fool around I must warn you of a couple teeny tiny details." She said as she opened another door. "Now we're in the dreamscape so I can re-size myself to any height that I please but you.....are not that tall here" she said as I looked through the door to see a shadow copy of me beside what looks to be a giant green tree trunk. But I swerved my head a bit to realize that it wasn't a tree trunk, but rather the leg of a gigantic pony. It looked like I was only a inch or two tall compared to the giga pony.
"Dang.........im sooooo small" I said bewildered as Luna nodded as she shut the door.
"Yes, due to the magical difference between our world and yours, you sacrifice a major chunk of your height just to come here, even if that stone is supercharged with magic it came save your height I'm afraid" she said as she gave me back the stone. "But I have enchanted the stone so the owner will have a much higher resistance to anything, such as added pressure and calorie intake" she said as I breathed a sigh of relief as I feel a bit safer thanks to the stones power.
"Wait you still haven't said why this stone is called the sirens stone" I said as Luna motioned me over to another door.
"Well to make it a long story short some of my best little ponies got turned into......well .....sirens" she said as she she opened the door to reveal 7 shadow ponies being engulfed in magic as a big black ball surround them as a pair of giant jaws fly towards the door, luckily Luna closed it before it could get to us. "But luckily for us they didn't turn evil as we expect, and thus this stone appeared after the transformation" she said as I looked at the stone again with curiosity.
"So basically some ponies got turned into sirens but their fine?" I said as Luna shook her head.
"Not exactly, they may not have turned evil, but their behavior has certainly changed." She said as she continued down the path towards a bigger door. "Thats the other reason your here, we need some extra help with maintaining their attitude, you think your up to the task?" She asked as we stopped in front of the bigger door. I paused for a second before I answered, yes id like to help but what if I'm not enough? I looked back at the stone and shook away those thoughts as I looked back at Luna.
"Yes I am princess" I said as Luna chuckled and opened the door.
"Hehe call me Luna, and see you later" she said before pushing me into the door as I got engulfed in a bright light once more.
