Twenty two minutes later I emerge from behind the couch, surprised to see a lack
of pony parts. I will admit, I was a little disappointed. NOT BECAUSE THE PONIES DIDN"T EXPLODE!
But because I already had the poncho on, and I didn't want it to go to waste. Anyway, I emerge
from behind the couch expecting the worst. I was greeted by 6 confused and slightly scared 
ponies.

"Sooo, what did you think? Was it spot on?" I asked Twilight specifically.
She responded with a slow nod, never breaking eye contact and her expression never
wavering.

"Well, this is awkward."

Ben to the "rescue".

"So, now that you know that your part of a TV show, let's talk about something else!"

About 30 seconds and a face palm later, I looked up at the ponies, who now looked even more weirded
out and scared then before. Fluttershy started crying.

I'm going to hell.

"Ben."
"Ya"
"I hate you."
"Nice to know."

I just looked at him with my GTFO face and he took the hint. About 30 seconds later 
it was just me and six ponies in my living room. I walked over to the window to check
on the storm. Hasn't let up in  least. In fact, I think it may have goten worse. I looked
at the clock on the opposite wall. 1:27. I let out the breath I held in. My parrents
don't leave work until around 5:30 and wouldn't be back until about six. Plenty of time to explain.

I opened my mouth to explain, then closed it not knowing what to say. After about
a minute of pretending to be a fish, I just stopped and stared at them.

Cue awkward silence.

"Ok, really, is there something wrong with you?" Rainbow said. I was just happy
that someone broke the silence, even if it was a pony accusing me of being
retarded.

"I.. I just don't know where to start."
Twilight cuts in.
"Just tell us what this is."

"Ok. You are the six main characters in a TV show called My Little Pony" Friendship
Is Magic. The show is about you six doing... well... stuff."

Awkward silence.

"And?"

"Well, there are 2 seasons with 26 episodes each. Each episode is a specific time in 
one, or all, of your lives. They span in time from the Nightmare Moon incident
up to the Royal Wedding. For example, the first Applebuck Season after Nightmare Moon
is an episode. When Rarity gets captured by the Diamond Dogs. Ummm, the Discord stuff..."

A look of fear washed over the ponies when I spoke about the discord episodes. I can see that they never
really got over that...

"Was  really the Discord incident really that bad."

I was tn the proud owner of six disgusted pony stares.

"How could you even ask that! You apparently saw it, you should know how bad it was!" Rarity screemed at me.

"Jeez, sorry!"

The few seconds of awkward silence were put to an end when Twilight asks the questions of all quesions.

"So, who's your favorite?"

Again a few more seconds of silence until we hear a faint yell from down the hall.

"Fluttershy!"
