The Lighthouse...
...
...
Lukas felt warm, and comfy, he felt something wet on his forehead. Lukas started to remember what previously happened, his friends, the truck, the talking horse. He felt relieved that it was all just a dream... As he felt something soft touching his forehead he moaned. ''Mom...''
''It's ok, just relax now, you've been asleep for almost 2 hours.'' Her voice sounded a lot soft and gentle.
''I had a horrible nightmare... I dreamed that I was... In another world... With talking animals... It was terrible.'' Lukas said sleepily.
''Well... Your safe and sound, now, in my humble old lighthouse.'' She said... Wait... WHAT!!!
Lukas shot his eyes open. ''LIGHTHOUSE!?!?'' Lukas looked up and gasp, he saw the same pony from his dream only it wasn't a dream, nether of this was a dream.
Lukas started mumbling words as he started panicking. ''B-But... Bu... It was... DREAM!'' Lukas panicked, The pony tried to calm him down.
''It's ok, It's ok... Just calm down, you're ok... I'm not gonna hurt you.'' The little pony said calmly, she looked at him with sympathetic eyes, which strangely calmed Lukas down a bit.
Lukas took deep breaths and his eyes looked around, he noticed there were a lot of strange artifacts around the house, he saw a purple quill in a glass dome, there was also a few boxes scattered around the house, and few books here and there, but he also saw a big picture of a map on the wall. As Lukas takes in the scenery, he noticed the little pony getting awfully close to his face, he backed away a bit and saw the pony realize what she was doing.
''Oh, sorry... It's just... I don't think I've ever seen a creature like you before... Are you some kind of, hairless ape?'' She said, Lukas looked up at her with an offended face. She could see that she somehow offended him. ''Sorry... I didn't know you weren't or were, a hairless ape, it's just I can't really tell because you don't look like you're from around here.'' She said, Lukas tried to say something, but he just didn't know what to say by now.
She could see this, so she tried a different approach. ''My name is Sunny Starscout. Do you have a name?'' The pony known as Sunny asked, Lukas looked at her and blinked a few times, he guessed it wouldn't hurt to introduced himself.
He gained the composure to speak up. ''M-My name is Lukas... Lukas Hart... I'm sorry, it's just really freaky to see a talking pony ''Talking'' to me.'' Lukas said, Sunny looked at him confused and asked. ''Don't ponies normally talk where you come from?''
Lukas didn't know if he should tell her that her kind aren't actually intelligent, and they usually just stand around and look deep into space, so he simply said. ''No...''
Sunny looked a little bit baffled at that, but she let it slide. ''So... What exactly are you?'' Sunny asked.
Lukas looked surprised to hear that, does this mean he's not on earth anymore? Lukas looked up to her. ''Wait, you actually never seen anything like me before? Were even, am I?'' Lukas asked, Sunny smiled. ''You're in Equestria, right now you're in Maretime Bay, and this is my home.'' Sunny said proudly. ''But I don't understand, aren't you from around here?''
Lukas felt his stomach sink in as he couldn't believe that this was actually happening to him, would he ever find his way home? Will he ever see his family and friends again? Lukas felt a tear drop down his cheek as he couldn't believe he wasn't going to see them again... He then felt something soft touch his hand. he looked down and saw it was Sunny's hoof petting his hand reassuring, he can see the concerned look on her face. ''I'm sorry if I asked anything personal... I didn't mean to.''
Lukas slightly smiled. ''It's ok... I know you didn't mean it... As for your first question, my species is called homo sapiens, but human for short. As for your second question, No I'm not from around here.'' Lukas said to Sunny.
''Then where exactly are you from?'' Sunny asked, Lukas didn't know if he should tell her that he's from another planet, so he had to make sure first. ''Promise you won't freak out if I tell you?'' Lukas said sternly.
''Why would I freak out?'' Sunny asked, Lukas took a deep breath. ''You see... I'm actually from... another world...'' Lukas said, Sunny widens her eyes and stutters. ''Y-You mean... L-Like another... Universe?...'' Sunny asked, she looked like she was about to explode. ''Yeeeeeeeessss...'' Lukas said sheepishly.
Sunny then got up to his face where their noses barely touch. ''...I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS!!!'' Sunny squealed like a little kid meeting his idol for the first time. She then ran to her kitchen and grabbed a little notebook. ''Ok, I need to start a new chapter of questions for humans, let's start right now!'' She then grabbed a pencil and started writing. ''Ok, first question. Where do you live?'' Lukas was a bit speechless but shrugged it off. ''Uuh, California.'' Lukas said, Sunny smiled. ''That's a very interesting name for a town?'' Lukas looked at her. ''It's not a town, It's a state.''
''Oh, that makes sense.'' She then writes that down. ''Question number 2. What's your planet called?'' Sunny asked. ''Planet Earth.'' Lukas replied. ''Wow, that sounds just like earth ponies.'' Sunny said. ''I'm guessing that's what you are?'' Lukas asked. ''Of course! I figured you known that.'' Sunny continued. ''Question number 3. Can you do magic!'' Sunny said with eyes sparkling, Lukas however was taking aback by that last question. ''Magic?...'' He said quizzically, Sunny frowned a bit. ''Wait you don't have any magic?'' Sunny asked disappointedly, Lukas just looked at her as if it was obvious. ''Well, yeah. Humans can't do magic. Except magicians, those guys just somehow do the impossible, and sometimes they always show off?'' Lukas said with annoyens, Sunny however was surprised by this topic. ''I'm surprised that your world doesn't have any magic, how does your species evolve?'' Sunny asked, Lukas just shrugged. ''Probably cause back in my world, humans have created tools that can fix or take us anywhere we want to go, some that are more advanced than others.'' Lukas said, Sunny was full of curiosity, she didn't know what kind of tools humans use to make their planet more advanced. ''Wow, I bet you create all sorts of stuff!'' She said excitedly, but Lukas just frowned at that. ''You have no idea...'' Lukas said sadly, thinking back on all the wars humans have done to each other, all the sins people do. Sunny didn't know what he meant by that, but she didn't want to push it further.
Lukas then noticed something around the corner of his eye, he looked at Sunny and saw a weird tattoo on her flank, he didn't know what it was, but it looked like one large pink star with a blue trail and two smaller pink stars. He then looks at Sunny. ''Hey, Sunny'' Lukas said gaining her attention. ''Why is there a tattoo on your flank?'' He asked, Sunny was a bit confused. ''What do you mean, you don't have cutie marks in your world?'' She said, Lukas just gave her a face of confusion. ''A cutie what?'' He said, Sunny was surprised. ''I guess you don't, well a cutie mark is something a pony gets when they find out their special talent. You see mines means I stand up for what I believe in, and that I will never give up.'' She said proudly. ''So what's your special talent?'' She asked him, Lukas didn't really know what to say, it kind of sound a bit silly, but then again, he remembers he's in another world. ''Um... I don't really know... I don't think I really have a special talent.'' He said sadly, Sunny felt sadden to hear that. ''Oh... I'm sorry, I thought humans had special talents?'' She said. ''Well yeah, humans do have talents, but not just one talent.'' He said, Sunny was then surprised to hear that humans had more than just one talent. ''Wow, that sounds pretty cool.'' She said. ''Yeah, but we don't have marks on our sides to tell us what our special talent is.'' Lukas said teasingly, Sunny giggled a bit. ''Well, how will you know what your special talent is?'' She asked, Lukas shrugged. ''I don't know, I guess you'll just find out and see what you like to do best.'' He said, Sunny understood as she writes that down in her notebook.
She then looked at her clock that said (10:34 PM) and gasp, she then looked at Lukas. ''I got to get to bed, I have a really big day tomorrow!'' She said as she puts her notebook away, She was about to leave but then she turned to her human friend. ''You can sleep here if you like, right now I need to get bed.'' She said, Lukas looked at her. ''Really?'' He said, Sunny then looks at him. ''Of course, your my guest after all.'' She said smiling brightly, Lukas felt speechless, but he looked at her with a smile. ''Thank you.'' He said warmly, Sunny smiled at him and went to the hand or... hoof made elevator, she pulled the lever and started lifting her up, she gave one last goodbye before going to bed. ''Goodnight!'' She said to Lukas. ''Goodnight.'' Lukas replied, he then couldn't see her anymore.
He laid back down on her couch and felt something on his leg, he pulled the blankets off and saw that Sunny had bandaged his wounds on his leg. Lukas smiled warmly as he puts the blankets back on, and lays back down, ready to fall back to sleep.
He couldn't help but think about what the next day would bring, but one thing in his mind was for sure.
He was in for a real adventure...
