Chapter 3 (How’s it going pony boy?)
You wake up with a stiff neck from what was mostly a restless night. The bed Twilight had given you is definitely not made for humans you get up slowly so that you don’t cramp up. You don’t mind it seeing as how you don’t have to go to school today seeing as how you’re a world away, looks like you are going to do nothing productive all day.
You can see from out the window it’s no longer morning; it really does look like you're not going to do anything. You walk down the stairs of the tree house/library looking for Twilight. You find her standing at a podium using her magic to write with a quill.
You look over her trying to read what she’s writing, you’re no ninja so your tip toe walking was a big fail.
She turns around and with a happy voice says “O good you're up, I thought you were going to sleep all day.”
You kind of give a friendly laugh as you say “Ya I can see why you were always tired after trying a spell.”
“That’s something I wanted to talk to you about” she continues “Only those with magic can use spells so I was wondering how did you use a spell if you don’t have magic?”
You remind her of what you already told her.
She stares you down with a doubting look “Yes I know that it was the letter that ultimately brought you here, but you have to have a forum of magic to start any spell.”
You kind of just shrug not knowing how to answer, if you had magic you figured you would be in Hogwarts not the dumb community college you currently attend.
Twilight gets a big grin “Would you like to help me with something?”
“Sure” you don’t see a reason you would say no.
“Great I would like to perform a study on you” She floats a checklist of things over to her. You start to think to yourself oh crap what did I just agree to.
Twilight goes on to explain what she want you to do. “Your timing is impeccable you know. I was asked by Princess Celestia to write down what I learned my few weeks on in the human world; no pony has ever traveled out of a world before you know.”
You just give a nod showing that you’re listening.
She goes on “Seeing as how nopony has ever been to your world before I have had trouble trying to remember what I learned. But with you here you can help me give a better description of your world and humans. That’s if you don’t mind.”
You agree to help her seeing as how you can’t really say no to the owner of the house you’re sleeping in.
“Great, take a seat and I’ll get my papers.” Twilight gallops towards another room and returns a few minutes later with a huge book and some papers.
“This is so far what I got” She levitates the huge book over to you “It’s not a lot but it’s a start.”
You look at the book, there has to be at least a hundred pages you laugh at her comment of only a start. “Um Twilight this is more than just a start.”
She holds her head up proudly as says “well I had a lot of time to study humans thanks to your magic book.”
You ask her what she needs you to do.
“I just need a real human to give their side of how humans live and how they use love and friendship. “
“Love and friendship?” you ask
“Yes remember when I explained the Elements of Harmony and how we get our magic?” She says
You nod
“I need you to explain how humans use them.”
You try to explain to her how not many people use friendship or love in their daily lives.
She looks disappointed at your answer.
You quickly shoot back a “But i'll try and explain how we use it.”
She looks happier “great!”
She then goes on to say “well before you start you should eat something, you can’t think on an empty stomach.”
You laugh and agree at her suggestion, you don’t know how long it’s been since yesterday morning but the sound of food makes you hungry.
Twilight says “I know what you will like I’ll get spike to make it. Spike! Spike!”
A small purple dragon appears in the doorway
“Ya Twilight?”
“Spike could you fry up some eggs for our guest please.”
Spike walks out away.
Twilight turns to you “Spike is my oldest friend and he is my assisting in the library.”
You nod in acknowledgment at her.
After a few minutes Spike returns with a few plates.
He walks in the room but then drops the plates and looks like he is going to throw up; he lets out a belch and a letter similar to the one you saw before falls to the ground.
Twilight happily runs to the letter lifts it up with her magic and starts reading.
Your face just hangs in a stupid and disported expression at the sight of seeing perfectly good food splattered on the ground.
Twilight starts reading aloud the “Princess has set tomorrow as the day you will meet her; she will send a chariot to pick us up.”
You think about what she just said and kind of smirk about the fact of being in a chariot pulled by talking ponies.
Twilight “oh I have so much to teach you about acting like a proper pony; we need to start right now!”
You think to yourself o crap; you know how thorough she is on studying.
“Can I eat first? “Like you said cant work on an empty stomach” you say
Twilight run to the other room “Spike will get you something; I need to find the books on Equstrian history.”
You’re glad she forgot that you don’t usually eat breakfast; this gives you some time to get your brain ready to start learning, so much for doing nothing.
