Figuring Things Out
"What are you doing back here? Had enough of terrorizing innocent ponies?" Twilight asked angrily as she took a defensive stance and fired up her horn.
"Woah now! I don't know what you're talking about! I've never terrorized any ponies in my life! Wait, ponies? Wha-" John said as he shot to his feet and prepared to try and convince the purple Unicorn that he wasn't a terrorist of any kind.
"I just saw you blast a hole in the Carousel Boutique, chase off dozens of ponies from Sugarcube Corner, and set a third of Sweet Apple Acres on fire!" Twilight declared as a hint of steam shot out of her nostrils. "You could have hurt my friends!"
"I swear it wasn't me. Hell, I just got here! I don't have any way of blasting a hole in anything!"
"You have your strange magic!" Twilight said as she continued to intimidate the (practically) cowering human. "After we happily took you in and tried to help you!"
"I just got here! And I don't have any magic!" John yelled back.
"Liar!" Twilight retorted.
"Why the hell would I be cowering in a corner from you if I had my own magic!?" John attempted to reason.
Twilight continued to glare at John, but she powered down her horn.
"You have fifteen seconds to explain yourself." She threatened.
A little while later
"So you're telling me that some evil guy forced himself into your head, teleported you to this universe, and apparently took your body for a joyride." Twilight said, now much calmer.
"I guess it sounds a bit insane...but yeah, basically." John replied.
"You're from another universe and yet...You....speak Equestrian?" Twilight asked almost breathlessly.
"Ummm...No? I speak English." John explained calmly.
"But you're speaking perfect Equestrian!" Twilight said as if John had just denied the existence of the floor he was standing on.
"It looks like we're both right." John said with a sigh.
"We can't both be right, I've never even heard of 'English'." Twilight said defiantly.
"We can and we are, I'm changing the subject. Hello, my name is John." He said already tired of the earlier debate. He already knew Twilight's name along with all of the others but he figured it would be odd for him to simply say so.
"But you can't just-Fine" Twilight huffed but quickly regained her composure. "My name is Twilight Sparkle and I'm sorry for that unpleasantness earlier." She said with a soft smile.
"Well met, my name is John. Did anything else happen when I first arrived?" John asked. He almost didn't want to know the answer to that, but he decided to keep that to himself for now.
"Not really, you just kind of appeared in my house last night. You introduced yourself as Dimmy, made friends with just about everybody, then went berserk after muttering something about someone waking up"Twilight said.
"I'm glad to see that you're awake. Don't I get a good morning?" Dimentio suddenly cut in causing John to visibly flinch.
"Hey, are you alright!?" Twilight asked worriedly.
"Yeah, just...just a little tired, yeah that's it. This is a lot to take in"
"Trying to downplay me for now? That's no fun...I believe I can fix that with a bit of....Magic!" As soon as Dimentio said this, John was flung directly into a shelf of books. The aforementioned books proceeded to fall on top of him in an almost comical way.
"Omigosh! Are you okay!?" Twilight yelled worriedly and began to try and help John to his feet.
"Yeah, I just-" John felt Dimentio exert his presence within his mind a bit to get the point across.
"It's rude to ignore people, John." Dimentio boomed within John's mind causing him to almost grasp his head in pain.
"Yeah yeah, I hear you Dimentio...asshole. " John was once again.
"Now Now, there's no need to throw around petty insults." Dimentio scolded
"Take me home!" John yelled back at Dimentio, causing Twilight to flinch and take a step back
"You wanted to come here, otherwise why would you seem so interested in a place?" Dimentio asked.
"John, are you alright?" Twilight asked worriedly.
"Not now, Twilight. Dimmy and I are discussing things. Whether I thought about it or not doesn't matter, I have things I've got to do back in my world!" John shot back.
"Awe, C'mon John! There's so much to do here! Your life was boring and pointless...now there are ponies and magic! There's no downside here for you.
"You mean aside from you terrorizing the ponies? That's fucked up man...What the hell did I do to you?" John asked
"I've only known you for a few hours and already you keep me from having any fun." Dimentio said sounding like a scolded child.
"By ‘fun’, you mean begin your genocidal rampage? I don't think anyone can simply allow that." John thought, thankful that Dimentio was obviously still exhausted from the trip to Equestria.
"You're no fun." Dimentio said. John could practically feel him cross his nonexistent arms.
"Are you okay?" Twilight asked with a worried tone that she seemed to have had for quite a bit today.
"Yeah, sorry about that." John shrugged, playing off the near catastrophe as nothing more than a simple faux pas.
"What was that all about?" Came a new voice.
"We have a guest, Spike!" Twilight yelled up the stairs.
"Alright, I'm coming down!" Spike yelled back and soon made his way down. Once he reached the bottom of the stairs, he stared open-mouthed at the tall being.
"Hi there." John said.
"Isn't this the same guy that went on a rampage through the town yestarday?" Spike asked retreating slightly.
"Yes and no Spike, this is John. The one that started blowing up the town was apparently named Dimentio." Twilight explained
"Can I say hello?" Dimentio asked nicely.
"No." Was the only response he could get from John.
"Oh...well hi, my name's Spike." Spike said confidently after he recovered from his moment of shock. He excitedly offered his claw to shake the human's.
"Nice to meet you, my name is John." replied John in a friendly manner and shook Spike's claw with his hand.
"Yeah, Twilight just said that." Spike said.
"I'll save you Twilight!" Came a completely new,yet vaguely familiar, voice.
Just after the odd shouting, John was greeted with a blue blur coming through the window and hitting him directly in the face. The blue was quickly replaced with complete blackness as John lost consciousness.
