His watch declared it to be three in the morning. His caffeine fueled brain made it seem ten hours later. His common sense said he shouldn't knock on a stranger's door at this hour. His irrational teenage brain said otherwise.

Rainbow heard a knock on the door and instantly panicked. It was probably her parents, back from their trip early. Then reason set in, and she realized they were still in the air. She sighed in relief and went back to playing her video game before the knock sounded again and she opened the door in exasperation. "Are you even aware of what time it is?" She yelled at the boy standing there.

The boy stared at her before clearing his throat. "Where are we?" He asked in a straightforward tone of voice.

"You're kidding, right? We're in Canterlot. A place where we don't knock on strangers' doors at unholy hours to ask trick questions." Rainbow glared at the boy, not appreciating his little prank.

"You're mistaken, milady. I'm very lost. My name is Erion." He bowed to her.

She wasn't amused. "Alright then. You sure you're lost?" Erion nodded. "Okay, fine. I'm Rainbow Dash. I guess you can come in." She threw the door open and went back to her video game, and Erion carefully entered the living room.

"Thank you, madame. I am eternally grateful." He smiled at her, then noticed the game she was playing. "Is that a video game? I must truly be in a spectacular world if technology has advanced so far as to create such marvelous creations as those."

Rainbow patted the seat next to her on the couch. "Come on over, Erion. I've got a feeling you're gonna be a great gaming buddy."
