My little Brony: Friendship is Epic

To Keep, or Not To Keep

Whoa... That's like, not very informative. Through all of that whole story, I literally got nothing. I blinked in annoyance. She obviously didn't know much about what happened, but I guess that's to be expected. Something like this is beyond explaining, even for her standards.

"So what you're saying is, you have no frickin clue how you got here?". She shook her head, hiding behind her hair.

"Ugh, damnit, should have guessed..." I huffed. That was the worst mistake of my life, me saying that. The moment I said that, she started to tear up. Frick, she was about to cry!

"I-I'm sorry, I-I wish I could be m-more help.". She said blubbering like a baby, or foal I guess. Crap, looks like the Fluttershy fans are gonna wreck my crap again.

"N-no it's not your fault!" I assured, trying to get her to calm down. "You're obviously in the dark as much as me, so don't worry about it.". She looked at me, drying her eyes with her hooves.

"O-okay, t-thank you Mr. Zac.". Mister? That was new.

"J-just Zac is fine Fluttershy.". She smiled at me, this time without hiding behind her mane, which I returned with a grin. Although, I knew we had a problem. If she didn't know how she got here, that means that finding out how to get her back would be frickin near impossible. Not only that, but if she's here, and if the others were in the same room as her, then that means they could possibly be in this world too. Ugh, how do I get myself into these messes?

I glanced at her. She was basically hypnotized by the documentary on penguins that was playing on the Discovery channel. I have to come up with a plan. I still hadn't even been able to choose what to even do with her, let alone how to get her home. Let's see, I could kick her out and let some crazy ass freak show take her away. Naw, no telling what'd happen to her, plus she seems to already trust me.

In my thinking, I didn't even notice her staring at me. I guess she was trying to read my emotions or something. Fat chance on that, I'm pretty good at hiding my emotions from people, or ponies in this case.

"Zac, a-are you sure I can stay here?". What the hell, how'd she read me so easily?! That's crazy! What, was she a frickin mind reader too?!

Getting past that though, what should I do? I mean, she could stay here, but wouldn't that mean I'd have to find the others too? Why me though?! I'm sure some other person would love to be on a My Little Pony adventure. I just wanna live life and make sure I'm able to pass my frickin college entry exams! Maybe I should just tell her to go and find another sucker to help her.

Then again, she's already used to me. I mean, as used to me as one could get if they were talking to an other worldly being. Not to mention that it IS me. If she stays here, then I'll know that she's at least safe a bit. It's kinda like that one MLP fanfic I read. I think it was called "My Little Dashie". In a sense, I guess you could say that I've been thrown into this adventure because I'm not gonna do something... unthinkable. Brr, the thought brings a chill to my spine. That's it, she's staying, and I'm helping her; End of discussion.

"Of course. I don't have much, but I'll help as much as I can.". She let out a small gasp. I guess she wasn't expecting me to say that.

"R-really? I c-can stay, a-and you'll help me?" she squeaked. I nodded in response.

She smiled brightly. Well, for all it's worth, seeing that bright smile was worth pressing the continue button on my "little" adventure.

I yawned, stretching my limbs out. Judging from my tired body, and the clock that said 12:36 AM, I think it's about time I got some rest. This whole ordeal drained every layer of energy out of me.

"Well, uh, it's getting late so lets head to bed. You can sleep on the couch, which I'll be sure to give you some blankets too.". She nodded with a small thank you escaping from her lips.

A few minutes later, I had given her some blankets, and even tucked her in. Ha, bet you suckers wish you were me, huh?

"Night Fluttershy. Call if you need anything, alright?" I said as I was walking to my room.

"O-okay, t-thank you Zac.". I slid into my bed, not even bothering to change my clothes.

I couldn't believe it. A cartoon pegasus was laying on my couch, and I had to find her friends and then get them all home. Huh, good thing it's Winter Break. Hopefully I can resolve this by then, I have college entry exams soon.

"Z-z-z-zac! Please wake up!". The hell?! What's going on?!

I sprung from my bed and ran to the living room. Was someone in the house?! My alarm system didn't go off, nor did I hear any noises! Well whatever it was, it was here!

"What's the matter?!" I called, rushing into the living room.

She only looked at me and pointed to the TV, her face white as snow. I glanced at the TV. It was the news, but I was on the Discovery Channel last night. It must have been breaking news.

"This just in, we are getting reports that a strange creature wearing a cowboy hat has been spotted in the Walmart in downtown New York.". Strange creature? Walmart? Cowboy hat?!

"It is not only very intelligent, but it is also very dangerous. Do not, I repeat, do not startle this creature and let the proper authorities handle it.". No doubt a frickin bout it. I know who that is, and I think Fluttershy did too.

"Is that one of yours?" I asked jokingly. She nodded.

"I think so. That has to be AppleJack. She must be so confused right now, that's why she's making a scene. You have to calm her down and bring her here to safety, please!". I sighed. I did promise, and I did have to get groceries too...

"Alright, leave it to me. I'll rescue AppleJack!". Welp, this should be fun... Hopefully...
