Chapter 2 – A new day, a new challenge 

You awake to the shining of the bright sun through your window, you start thinking to yourself wow the sun rose early today. You look at your alarm clock the time reads 10:00 Am, then say to yourself oh great now I overslept as you start to roll out of your bed you get an intense pain from the back of your head. Now the memories from last night rush you like cool water, you jump to your feet still holding your head and stagger to the door of your bedroom. As you reach the door you can see the living room. It’s clean and nothing is broken you breathe a sigh of relief knowing that last night the house was a wreck and there was some lavender colored pony in your house. As of right now your thoughts of last night being a hallucination are correct, no mess and no pony.  

You walk down the hall towards the kitchen to eat breakfast, still trying to understand the crazy hallucination from last night. As your looking in your fridge for something edible to eat you hear a faint whimper or perhaps a light snoring. Your heart sinks as you slowly walk over to the couch and there you see it… the lavender colored pony sleeping on your couch. You think to yourself well at less I have a reason to stay home today but you doubt your professors will take this as a real excuse and if they do take it as a real excuse they would probably think you were crazy. You continue to just stare at the colored pony unsure if you should wake her or not; after a few minutes of feeling like a creeper you decide to do something that involves not waking her but also makes you feel like you did something. You walk back to the kitchen open the fridge and pull out some apples and carrots, you're unsure as to what talking ponies eat but you guess this would work. You walk back to the couch and quietly place the fruit on the table in front of her. 

(Later in the day)

It’s about 2:30 now you have done nothing productive all day no school work and no video games your mind is still trying to cope with fighting off the pain from your fall yesterday and trying to understand why there is a unicorn pony in the other room. Your deep thought is abruptly broken by the sound of hooves getting closer to your door. A purple aura wraps around the door as it opens revealing the lavender pony in the doorway.

She says "um I wanted to thank you before I leave.”

You nod your head.

“Well thank you, I feel well rested and I am going to go back to Equestria.”

Your curiosity takes control of you and you ask the pony a question "How are you going to go back?" Right after speaking you say to yourself well now i'm officially giving into insanity. 

The pony smiles "Oh so you can talk."

You stare at her silently. 

She looks you over and then continues "Well I am a unicorn so I will be using a spell to bring me home."

You nod your head "Ok". She clears her throat as she talks "Yes well thank you for your help."

She walks from the doorway and back to the living room out of sight. You stare at the door trying to just push the thought of talking to a horse out of your mind...but Your curiosity gets the better of you because it’s not every day that you met a talking unicorn. You stop at the opening to the living room and observe her as she you guess start to cast her magic or what every unicorns do. She closes her eyes and breathes deep, a purple aura starts to wrap around her and she begins to fade from your sight. Looking at this you can’t stop hearing the sound of the TARDIS from doctor who.  

There’s a slight poof sound as the light fades.

You’re amazed at what you just saw your jaw hangs in awe. But just a few minutes later you hear strange noises that sound similar to lighting hitting metal poles. A purple bubble forms in the center of the living room. You duck behind the doorway as to get out of the way of any rogue magic that may knock you down. The bubble pops with a huge gust of wind that moves or knocks over most everything in your house. Lying on the ground is Twilight, her coat has a dark film to it and it looks as if she is hurt. You rush over to her to see if she is ok, her eyes are half closed and she is whispering something.

“I…I don’t understand I did what I did before… but it didn't work.”

She continues to speak very softly but you ignore her and carry her to your room and lay her down in your bed. In a few minutes you notice she is asleep. You look at the time 3:20; you decide to go ahead and plan to sleep on the couch tonight as it seems Twilight's spell did not work and she will be staying here again. You check on Twilight later in the night to make sure she is still ok. She seems ok so you decide to not wake her. You close the door and go back to the living room, you look around the room it’s a mess from the failed spell Twilight tried you attempt to try and clean the room but you realize you won't be able to make a dent in the mess you decide it’s your future self’s problem so you decide to give up and go to sleep.
