The truth

Chapter 3: The truth

I sat there staring at the eyes in complete shock, after what felt like hours of silence, the pony finally spoke up. "Hi! My name is Lyra!" The pony said.

I just sat there, a little shaken up by the sudden surprise.

'Pinkie aint got nothing on her'

So I spoke up too. "Uh... hi Lyra? My name is CJ... and could you get off my chest, or at least stop bouncing...."

She stopped bouncing and looked at me before smiling and saying OK and getting off me. I got up and looked at her but before I could speak, she began speaking again.

"Your a human right? OhmygoshOhmygosh! Finally! Nopony ever believed me and now I can prove you're real to everypony!" She said at Pinkie speed, while still bouncing.

"Uh... OK... that sounds fun and all, but I'm a little busy, we can do this another time, okay?"

I turned around to leave but was stopped by her voice.

"But... I finally have a chance to show everypony but you won't let me..." She said in a sad tone.

I sighed and crouched down to eye level with her.

"Listen I know your happy and all about seeing a human, but can it wait? Because I have some important things to ask twilight." She nodded and began to walk away with her head down, feeling guilty I decided to make it up to her.

"Hey, how about sometime tomorrow I meet you at sugarcube corner and I can answer some of your questions?" I asked.

She twirls around with a smile on her face. "That would be awesome! Thanks!"

For some reason Iy felt like I would regret this, but, meh I'll deal with it later.

'Now, to ask Twilight some questions that have been in my head since I got here'

I walked forward and knocked on the door, a few moments later a purple dragon opened the door and froze, after a few seconds slammed the door and started screaming something about a bald diamond dog wanting to eat his brain...

'I don't look that bad... do I? Well, I could use a shower....'

The door opened revealing a Twilight who's face was buried in a book and looked up for a moment to see me.

"Ah, Chris, come on in... one second... SPIIIIIKE GET DOWN HERE!"

I walked in and looked around. The library looked even better in person, so many books, but the strangest part, none of them were on the shelves. They were all scattered about the floor.

'Huh, I thought she was always organized'

Then I saw spike whip past me and behind Twilight, who just rolled her eyes and picked up spike and sat him in front of me.

"Uh... hi?" I said slowly.

That's all it took for him to fall over and go out like a light.

"Uh... did I do something wrong..."

Twilight groaned and threw her book into the pile with the rest.

"No, I have been so busy looking for answers in this library I forgot to tell him about you... heh, sorry."

I responded "It's alright, I have a few questions for you anyway, I have been wanting to ask them since I got here."

She looked at me strangely

"Why didn't you say something while we were at Fluttershy's then?"

"Well, with all of the questions YOU were asking, do you really think I could have even asked one?" I said, raising an eyebrow. She blushed and nodded, and walked to a table and sat down, I followed suite.

"So, what are your questions?" She asked with a bit on interest.

'Where to start, I'll just start with the simplest'

I pull out my I-pod and ask, "This has a limited battery life, like an electrical charge that is dieing, do you think there is a way I can charge it?"

She stood there for a moment, and then her horn began to glow, so did the I-Pod. When she was done, she smiled and put on a look that would make Rainbow's ego look like Fluttershy's.

"There, it shouldn't lose its charge anymore." She stated.

I was waiting for the reason why but it never came.

"Uh, Twi, care to tell me how?"

She looked confused for a moment then went back to smiling.

"Oh, right, you don't know about magic, I simply made it so it absorbs the magic energy around it, like us unicorns do to give us our power." She smiled and gave a look that said something along the lines of... Duh... its obvious.

I rolled my eyes and said, "OK, next question, this one is a bit important, WHY did you bring me here in the first place.... like... I shouldn't even have to ask, I expected you to tell me but you never did."

She sat there for a moment in deep thought and then looked at me, her smile gone.

"Well, I'm not really sure, the spell I cast was still in testing phase, and it is supposed to point us to the solution of our problems, all we have to do is take a hold of the chance." She took a breath and continued, "Why it picked you, I'm not sure, that's what we are trying to figure out." She pointed to all of the scattered books. I nodded.

"But... Twi, what do you mean we?"

"I meant me and the Princesses, they don't even know why, They did tell me that if the spell drew enough power to pull something from a separate world, then it must be for something important." She said bringer her hoof to her chin.

"Any idea's at all what this 'Important' thing is?" I asked, wanting a good answer.

"Sadly, the only clue that I could find was the voice I heard while being transported and the name that was given."

"What did the voice say?" I said interested.

She took a shaky breath and spoke, "Well, when it spoke, it sounded like it was not talking to me or knew I was there, I could just hear the words. They were talking about how this could have happened, why they came here, and if it is worth their time."

'Hm... well, I guess my stay in equestria is not going to be all sunshine and rainbows after all.'

"Well, what about the name?" I asked, hoping I would be able to make something out of it.

What I heard drained the blood from my face and almost made me collapse in fear....
