Defending Equestria (Cancelled)

by Jack2023


5: Jack


I wake to see light in my eyes from a window to the right of me. I would honestly of slept well tonight if that evil laughter wasn't stuck in my head. After a moment, sounds of reality began to pierce my ears again. On the other side of the door I could hear a loud, reconsigning burp, That must be Spike.

I got up from the bed, put my shoes back on, and walked to the exit of the bedroom. To then, see Twilight handing the small purple dragon a scroll, as he then breathed fire to incinerate the scroll, and obviously sending it to Celastia.


I had to knock on the book shelf next to me to announce my presence. It worked as they both looked at me quickly, a small spark of delight appeared in Twilight’s eyes as she said, “Spike, this is Jack. The human I was talking about!”
“Jack, this is Spike, my assistant!” I then look at Spike to see tones of disbelieve in his eyes.
“Hey, there Spike.” He didn't speak for a moment.
“Hey Twilight?” She looked back at me , “I don't think Spike believed you, when you told him about me?”

Both of their eyes sparked as Twilight quickly looked at Spike and began squinting her eyes, slowly moving closer to him, “Spike?” She said in a obviously annoyed tone.
“What!? No,no,no I believed you, ha,ha?”

Twilight continued as Spike became more nerves, “Hey, I'm... going to go fix the bed Jacky boy here slept in. Okay?”
Before Twilight could speak, he bolted for the room behind me and closed the door.

I looked back at Twilight with a small smile on my face, as a glass of orange liquid floated to me, with the purple aura around it. I grabbed it, with the slight shock again going threw me. “Orange juice, I presume?”
“Sure is. Hey come over here!” she said excitedly.

As I began walking to her taking a sip of the juice, “Hmm, best orange juice I've ever tasted,” I said quietly under my breath, as I noticed Twilight’s right ear twitch, obviously announcing she heard me. So her hearing is that good.

I got to the table she then pointed at a scroll and told me to read it.

“Dear, Jack. I know you are still in confusion of the event that has occurred. But I must assure you, that there are great reasons for you to be in this different world.” Signed, Princess Celastia.

I rolled the scroll back up and threw it hard back on the table making a loud slap. In the corner of my eyes I can see Twilight's eyes shocked that the princess's little insuring letter, failed at its job.

“Its like back in the unit.” I said, with anger hastily building up. I then hit the table with my fist, in pure rage as every thing on it violently shook. “Just like the fucking president, doesn't say shit to the men when they need to know what there going to fucking risk!”


During a moment of silence, I quickly looked into Twilight's eyes, then looked away just as fast, picking the glass of juice back up lifting it to my mouth to finish it off. The fear of me from yesterday returned to her eyes.
After a moment Twilight exhaled. She was trying to regain control of herself, when knocking on the front door made her quickly walk to it.

I put my hands on the table to hold myself up as I became light headed, looking at the scroll I threw down.
“He needs a moment alone.” I hear Twilight saying softly to somebody at the door.
“Aww, but I want to meet him Twi!” Another voice said with no intent of hiding her words from me. I could tell it was Rainbow Dash's voice.
“No, Rainbow!” Twilight said, quickly closing the door closed behind her.

“Rainbow Dash?” I said with fear, in my voice. I can see Rainbow's face turn from annoyed to concern, “what is it Twilight... Are you okay?”
“I'm fine Rainbow... Its just... I need a friend to talk to right now.”
“Alright.” Rainbow replayed as we began walking away from the library.


I sat there still looking at the scroll with my hands on the table. When my light head went away, I looked back at the door Twilight left by.
Picking up the glass used to hold orange juice earlier, and walked to the fountain to refill it. I took multiple sips of it still tasting a small amount of the juice in the water tell I emptied it. And refilled it again. I looked at the freshly filled glass and wondered why I was so dehydrated.
“Probably from being transported by magic to a different world.” I said before drinking from the glass again.
I turn around looking at the entire main room of the library. “I'm really in the world of a little girls fucking show!”


After finishing the glass off, I placed it next to the fountain, and wondered why Spike was still in the other room. I walked close to it and placed my ear on the door and heard snoring. I remember in the show how mush Spike fell asleep, he is still a baby dragon. I looked at the book shelf next to me, and see if I could find information worth while.


“Seriously Twilight! Are you OK!? Did That human do any thing to you?!?”
“No, Rainbow Dash.” At this point are other friends joined us in the conversation.
“Then whats going on, sugar cube?” AppleJack said.
I sighed again before speaking, “The stress of this ordeal has... Well easily got to him and he is loosing his temper.” Rainbow then flew in front of me, blocking my path as I was forced to stop walking.

“He better of not hurt you Twi!?”
“No, he didn't.” I quickly said to calm Rainbow down.
“But he did yell.”
“Why?Why?Why?Why?” Pinke Pie, blurted at me with great concern.
“I gave Jack a letter from Princess Celastia, and after reading it out loud. Which I don't think he noticed that he did. He then threw the scroll to the table, yelling - Just like the fucking president, Doesn’t say shit to the men when they need to know what there going to fucking risk.”


They where all like me, shocked and confused by these words.
“Well maybe we should go talk to... Umm, this human and find out what he meant?” AppleJack said, With determination.
“I agree Twilight, you should know why he would yell like that!” Rarity said being herself, but still with the same determination as AppleJack.
“I agree with you... But. Remember his position, Taken from his world, to some where he had no idea existed, against his will, by ME with orders from Celastia, Two ponies he knows nothing about. And there's another thing, to be greeted by a species not human!!”


As I looked at the others I can see that they all agreed with what I said, and started to feel sorry for him. Out of now where Pinkie Pie started crying.
“WHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! That POOR...” She paused for a moment with her mind thinking what to say next, I guess.
“Human!!! WHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!”
“Its alright Pinkie! I can tell he'll be fine! Its just a lot for him to take in” I said trying to get Pinkie to stop.

She gasped before she said “I NEED TO THROW HIM A WELCOMING PARTY TO PONYVILLE!!!”

As she begin to dash away, I grabbed her tail and puller back down.
“No! Not yet Pinkie!” Pinkie's mane instantly deflated after saying this.
“I bet he would be great full if you did that for him Pinkie, but I can tell he needs time to calm down.” She looked at me and smiled a little, but I can still see the disappointment in her face.

“I'll tell you right at the moment it would be a good time to throw the party. Okay?”
Her mane inflated and simply said, “oky doky!” And bounce away happily humming.

“Alright, everypony lets go back to the library and talk with Jack!” I said with confidence!

After getting there I hesitated, I looked at my five friends and said, “Remember what I said earlier, hes not doing well right now.”
Each one nodded their head to agree. As I opened the door to let me and my friends in, I clearly see Jack Stretched out on the couch reading a book with about 10 more stacked in a pile next to him on the floor.

“Hello there Twilight,” Jack said without even looking at me.

I instantly turn to Rainbow, and stopped her from flying over to Jack, And succeeded when she folded her wings back. “He Looks fine to me” Rainbow Dash said under her breath.


I put the book down on top the pile and sat in the couch normally, Spike then walked down the stairs, “hello everypony!” They all said hello to the dragon.

“Hey Spike?” He then looked at me.
“Can you put these books back for me?” I could see some confusion in his face.
“But its only been 2 hours?”
“Ya, I finished reading them.”
“Oh? OK, sure” as the dragon ran to the stack of books, and do what I asked, I looked at Twilight and was easily able to see that she was impressed by what I just said.


“Who are all these people behind you Twilight?” I said. But in my mind, I already knew all 6 of these ponies and there personality’s. I'll use that to my advantage to stay on there good sides.

One by one they introduced themselves tell Fluttershy hesitated, but whispered
“Hello, I'm... Fluttershy.”
“Hello, AppleJack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy, I'm Jack.”

I see Pinkie Pie dash in front of me beginning her rambles, “Oh my gosh you're totally human! This is one of the coolest things, EVVA!!! No... Can this be as coolest like the wedding... OO, OO!”
“Pinkie!” I hear Twilight, slightly yell.
“Oh... Oops, sorry!” Pinkie said giving a nervous smile.


“So, what have you guys been d-”
“ Hey whats the big idea yelling at Twilight!?” I was cut off by Rainbow Dash who was now in my face hovering.
“RAINBOW DASH!” Twilight said in anger, Rainbow then landed next to me and was about to speak.
“I told you he did NOT yell at me!” Only to be cut of by Twilight.

I was surprise by this. That she would take my side over her close friend. But that’s when I remember the last part of what Twilight told me last night. “And try to befriend him.” And this is also Rainbow Dash.


I looked at Rainbow dash to meet her eyes. She was obviously annoyed now, and got annoyed even more when I had no emotion on my face. She flapped her wings, sending her right in my face, hovering over me again.

“Then who did you yell at!?” she yelled at me.
I then see purple aura surrounding her as she fly’s away from me and lands on her ass next to Twilight.
“Jack? What where you yelling at this morning after reading the letter?” Twilight said, desperately trying to be nice and getting a answer.


I leaned back in the couch an sighed, “My self, the President, and Celastia.” I said.
“The... President?” Rarity said right after my answer.

I took a long exhale before telling the group, “You're kingdom is ruled by a Princess, Right? Well my country, doesn't have a ruler.”
I can see them all fascinated by what I was saying, even Spike.
“My country demographically elects a person from 2 groups, simply by voting for one, or the other. The person who wins the election now has the title of President, for 4 years. He or she leads are country though... what ever is going on in the world. If it be. A depression, fuel shortage, or a war.”


After a moment of them thinking of what I tolled them from my world.
Rainbow Dash blurts out, “Wait!? Why where you yelling at Celastia!?”
“We'll she ordered Twilight to use a spell to transport me to a different world, against my will.” I said in replay, as Twilight’s fascination of me turned to guilt and lowered her head.
“Then sends a letter to me saying that, to be reassured to now that I'm here for a reason. Not telling me any thing else. I was definitely not reassured by her writing. In fact it did the exact opposite of her intentions!”

Thy all looked away for a moment when I stopped talking. And Twilight still kept her head down.
“So with the stress of this ordeal, my pass and so little information from you're Princess, I easily lost my temper.”


I sighed, trying to keep my temper under control again.
“Twilight, I'm sorry for how I acted this morning.” There was a moment of silence after my words when I begin to see a tear fall from her eye.
“No, no don't be.” She looked up a little, Her eyes crying.
“I should be the one who's sorry! I brought you to a different world, with the experience of it being like-!”
“Twilight!” AppleJack quickly said , cutting her off. Twilight looked at the floor and began crying, as her friends started comforting her.

As she they continued, I walked over to the group and kneeled down to be at eye level with everyone else. I put my hand on Twilight's shoulder, she quickly looked up into my eyes. “Its okay, Twilight. I have nothing against you. You where just following orders!”
She smiled a little with relief rushing into her eyes. I took my hand off her shoulder as she wiped away her tears.
“Thank you.” Twilight said under her breath.
I smiled and stood back up taking a couple steps back.


After an hour of trying to get Twilight to calm down, She finally did. She was smiling like normal again. I then see Pinkie whispering in her ear looking at me in the corner of her eyes, she was holding her hoof up to block my sight so I couldn't read her lips. Twilight then looked at Pinkie and whispered in her ear. For a moment I looked away as they noticed that I was watching them.
Pinkie Pie suddenly yelled. “YES!” and dashes out of the front door faster then my eyes could follow.
I stood there shocked by the sight of her speed, AppleJack walks behind me saying, “Pinkie Pie, just being Pinkie Pie, partner.”

I knew Pinkie Pie could shatter the 4th wall in the TV show, but. She just did it right in front of every one, then AppleJack said that was normal!


After that every one said it was time for them to go home, as I laid on the couch opening a book I found interesting and listened as the group of friends said there good byes for the night.

“Good bye, Mister Jack.” Rarity said, I looked at her a little stunned.
But bowed my head and said, “Good bye, Miss Rarity.”
She then turned to Twilight, I can faintly make out what they said, “He's such a gentleman Twilight, any way Goodnight."
“Goodnight, Rarity” Twilight said with joy. As the door closed, Twilight looked at me with curiosity back in her eyes.


“So, Jack” Twilight said after a moment.
"Yes Twilight?” I quickly replied.
“I want to now more about you're world!” I looked at her curiously.
“Why?”
“Cause I like to learn” She said smiling.

I knew she wasn't telling me everything. I then look at her annoyed by the fact she couldn't lie.
She looked at the floor. “Also, Princess Celastia asked me to, from the letter I got this morning."
“If that was all, why did you send a reply to her?” She looked at me surprised.
“How did you know that!”
“I was there when I spotted Spike incinerating a scroll. I asked him why he did that when you where out, and learned he could send scrolls to you're majesty that way. But, why did you reply to the Princess if only that was on it?” Trying to say it nicely.

“She asked me details about you're physical appearance! Eye color, height, mane color! And you're mental condition... Which I told her, you were not doing very good.”

“Well, You where right about the last part.” I looked at her and spotted guilt in her eyes as her head began to go low. “No way Twilight!” She quickly looked at me.
“No getting poutsy woutsy on me again! I don't have you're friends here to get a smile back on you!” She looked at me and laughed.
“Still.. I'm sor-” She cut herself off remembering what I just said. She looked back at me and smiled again.


As she sat next to me on the couch, starting to ask questions, I quickly replied to each one of them, giving a correct answer, trying to avoid saying any thing about my past in my answers. She would ask questions of my country, and how nature worked on earth.


A little more then an hour later, we heard Spike burping loudly in the other room up stairs, he then ran out.
“A letter came for you Twilight!” She used her magic to open it in front of her to began reading.
I had to stand up and walk away from the couch.
“Read out loud Twilight!” Spike said excitedly. She hesitated, I can tell she sense my dislike fore the Princess.She cleared her throat, and began to speak.
“Dear, Twilight Sparkle, I need you, you're friends, and Jack, to come to the castle at noon by train.”

I was still looking the other way. “So I get to finally meet you're majesty!” I looked back at Twilight, I can easily tell she knows I distrust the Princess.
“Lets rest for the night, and be ready when we need to leave for the station at noon.” I said trying not to look mean to Twilight.


After we awkwardly said good night to each other, we went to are rooms. I looked around the room I spent the last night in, The lamp was already on. I then notice a door on the other side of the room to the wall on my right. I walked to it and turn the nob successfully. I moved along with the door to make sure nothing would shoot out at me. After the door was fully open, I looked in to see a switch. I flicked it as lights turned on revealing a small bath room. Leaving the lights on in the bath room I went to the door that lead to the main room and found a lock on it and clicked it.

Back to the bathroom I took my clothes off to clean them in the small shower, “I need to talk to Rarity and ask her to make me a couple of clothes, after I get on her good side. Which I think I'm already on the right track. After hanging the clothes to dry, I cleaned my self. I went to bed wearing only my underwear. I fell asleep quickly.



Thoughts of Twilight went through my mind that night.

I lost some of my sanity that night...
