Chapter 1: That’s not normal

Slowly awaking from unconscious, I some hear voices whispering near me. Groaning, I slowly sit up and start rubbing my head. I awoke to massive head ache, and while I was rubbing my head I noticed I had bandages wrapped around my head.

“Sh, it’s waking up” I hear a voice to my right say.

I immediately pause, and open my eyes. I slowly turn toward the voice, only to see six pastel colored humanoids standing before me. I then notice some of them have horns or wings. I could also tell that they were all female for some reason. I silently stare at them for a good twenty seconds before the purple one in the very front decide’s to break the silence.

“Uuuuhhhhhh.........Hello?” The purple one says.

I continue to stare at them for a couple of seconds before muttering “what the fuuuuuuck”. I then look away and start to run my eyes to make sure I am not seeing things, looking back at them and see they are still there. I continue to stay silent trying to process what I am seeing. Noticing that the purple one is starting to look slightly uncomfortable, I decide to ask the biggest question on my mind.

“What are you?”

The purple one, slightly thrown off by this question replies “Uh...My name is Twilight Sparkle and I am a pony. Now if you don’t mind me asking, what are you?”

Pausing for a second, I reply “I’m Andrew Miller and I am a human. Did you say you say you were a pony?” She nods. “Well you don’t look like any pony I’ve seen before.”

“What’s that supposed to mean?!” The pony with rainbow hair asks.

“What I mean is, where I come from, ponies don’t walk on two legs, talk, come in pastel colors or have horns or wings.” I replied

“And where’s that?” Twilight asks.

“Definitely not here.......where is ‘here’ exactly?”

“Oh, You're on the outskirts of Ponyville.” Twilight answers. She then noticed my questioning look. “In Equestria.” She clarifies. I continue to give a questioning look. “On planet Equis?”

“Ok, I am definitely not on my world anymore.”

“Ahem.”

We look over and see the rainbow haired pony Twilight was with looking slightly inpatient.

“Oh! I didn’t introduce my friends to you did I? Well, this is Rainbow Dash,”

“Hey.”

“Applejack,”

“Howdy.”

“Rarity,”

“Hello darling.”

“Pinkie pie,”

"Hello!"

“And Fluttershy.”

“Uh....hi.”

I look at them for a second before replying. “Well those are some........interesting names you guys have. As you heard, my name is Andrew and it’s nice to meet you all.”

Remembering the bandage around my head, I decided to ask why it was there. “Why is there a bandage on my head?”

The one name Fluttershy started to hide behind her hair before she timidly responds. “Uh......Y-You hit your head and started to bleed when you fell. I-I found some bandages in your first aid kit and applied them to your head. Sorry for going through your house without asking.”

I wave her off. “It’s fine. In fact, I should be thanking you for helping me.”

She hides behind her hair a little more. “Oh....um....I-It was nothing.”

There was a couple of seconds awkward silence before I decided to ask a big question on my mind.

"Do any of you know how I got here?" I ask.

"Unfortunately, we don't. We were hoping you would know and explain why a house suddenly appeared, but you're clearly as clueless as us." Twilight says.

"So what now? Is there a way to send me home?" I ask

"I'll send a letter to Princess Celestia to see if she knows a way to send you back." She replies.

"I'm guessing Princess Celestia is your ruler or something?" I ask.

"Yes she is, but she's also my teacher." She says

"It's getting late, I should get going if I want to send a letter to The Princess." Twilight says.

I look outside the window and see that the sky was starting to turn a nice orange color.

"Guess you guys are going to sort this out tomorrow, huh?" I says.

"Yeah. Hopefully The Princess has a way to send you home." Twilight says.

"Well see you all later." I say.

"Nice meeting you Andrew." Twilight says.

They all start to walk out of the front door, before they noticed that Fluttershy wasn't following them out.

"Is something wrong Fluttershy?" Rainbow asks.

"Oh....uh....I was thinking of....mabye....staying with Andrew to make sure his injury doesn't get worse.....If that's okay with you." Fluttershy says meekly.

I and the rest of her friends look at her, slightly surprised. Rainbow then pulls her aside and starts to whisper with her. I couldn't hear that much, but I could hear a couple of phrases from rainbow like 'We can't trust him yet' and 'He might be dangerous' with Fluttershy replying with 'But he's hurt'. This went on for a minute before I hear Rainbow sigh and say "Fine, But I'm staying here with you.". Rainbow th3n looks at me and asks "Thats fine with you, Right?".

"Yeah, it's fine." I reply.

"um Applejack, could you maybe tell Angel I won't be back tonight and to feed the animals please?" Fluttershy asks.

"Sure thing sugarcube." Applejack replied.

Everyone except for Fluttershy and Rainbow start to leave, saying goodbye their friends on the way out with Pinkie mentioning a ‘welcome to Ponyville’ party. Once they leave, I look at my two guests. "You two can make yourselves at home, I'll go make us something to drink" I say. I then start to get up off of my couch before Fluttershy rushes over to me and gently pushes me back onto the couch.

"I'm sorry but you need some rest." she says softly but with a little firmness. "I'll get us some drinks instead....if thats okay with you." She says.

"Oh, okay" I reply with a little hesitation.

She then walks into the kitchen looking through my cabinets for some glasses. I then notice Rainbow walk over to me and crouch right next to me while Fluttershy had her back turned toward us.

"I'm watching you. If you do anything to harm Fluttershy, I don't care if you've got an injury, I'll make getting yourself home the least of your problems. Are we clear?" she whispers to me in a slightly threatening tone.

"Crystal." I whisper back, feeling slightly nervous.

"Good." She replies before standing up.

"Um....I for got to ask, but what kind of drinks do you have?" Fluttershy asks meekly.

"I've got soda, milk and water in the refrigerator and some tea in the cabinet on the far left."I tell her.

"I'll just have some water." Rainbow tells her

"I'll have some tea." I say.

I then see Fluttershy take out the teabags and get to work preparing tea. I occasionally had to tell her where certain things were but she eventually finished the tea. She brought out our drinks and sat down next to me on the couch with Rainbow sitting near by on the recliner eyeing me suspiciously. I take sip a sip of my tea and start to think that my experience here so far has pretty nice.
