Movement to your right reminds you of your bed guest. “Good morning Mike.” Luna says through sleepy eyes. “Good morning Luna. Did you sleep well?” You ask. “I slept fine albeit slightly uncomfortable with cloths on” She replies. “Ya sorry about that, but I would not feel very comfortable sleeping next to a naked goddess” You say while chuckling. “It’s fine. It was still nice having someone in bed with me.” She replies . “I see you two had fun last night.” A new voice says from behind you. Startled, you jump out of the bed to face the new voice. It’s Celestia. “Ready for round two I see!” Celestia says. Confused about what she says you follow her eyes down to see the bane of every man’s existence, morning wood. Now that your more than embarrassed you do the only thing you can to keep what little dignity you had left and grabbed your cloths and put them on. “Well that’s no fun.” Celestia says while giving you a pouty face. She then turns to Luna. “So how was he?” She asks. “We didn't do anything!” You say defensively. “So you’re telling me that you two were alone in space with nothing but a bed and you did nothing?” She says. “Yes.” You reply. “Then why we’re you both half naked?” She asks. “Well I sleep in my boxers and Luna well she tried sleeping naked, but I made her wear something.” You say. “But Luna always sleeps in her underwear?” She says. It was your turn to look confused “But she told me she always slept naked!” Before you could get an answer you hear a *pop* come from behind you. “She just teleported out of here didn't she.” You say with a deadpan look. “Yup.” Celestia replies. “I see, well if it’s not too much to ask would you mind bringing me back to the castle I really don’t feel like being stuck in space.” You say. “Eeeeeh why not, I’m going there anyways.” She replies while smiling at you. *POP* You rub your eyes after the sudden assault. “God that hurt!” You say. “You get used after a while” A new voice says. After your vision returns you see Twilight standing in front of you. “Good morning Twilight.” You greet. “Good morning Mike” She replies. “You never returned to your room last night. I assume yours and Cadence’s date went OK.” She says. “Yes it went fine, but that’s not the reason I didn't return. After I walked Cadence to her room I sort of got lost and along my aimless wondering I ran into Luna and we decided to have a little date.” You say. Her eyes grew large with excitement. “So does that mean I’m next?” She says. “Sure I don’t see why not.” You reply. What she did next both confused and entertained you. She started bouncing around continuously saying the word yes. A rumble from your stomach reminds you that you haven’t had breakfast yet. Twilight looks at you and says “Hungry?” “Very.” You reply. “They're serving breakfast right now, would you like to go eat?” She says. “Yes, let’s.” You say. After a short walk you and Twilight arrive at the dining room. The table has just about everything you could possibly imagine someone would eat for breakfast including cake. That last one confused you ‘Who eats cake for breakfast?’ Your question is shortly answered by the arrival of Celestia. Who immediately grabs a slice. “Cake for breakfast?” You ask. “Why can one not eat cake for every meal?” She replies. “Well it’s not very healthy for one.” You say while chuckling. “Mike I’m a goddess nothing is unhealthy for me.” She says giving you a deadpan look. “Point taken.” You say as you continue to look at the buffet of food in front of you. You are saddened to see that there is no bacon or any meat for that matter. “No bacon?” You ask. Celestia spits out the cake she was eating “You’re a carnivore?” She asks. “No I’m an omnivore” You reply, It was then that you remembered the incident at the restaurant. “Oh yea you guys are herbivores aren't you.” You say sheepishly. Seeming to calm down with the realization that you weren't going to eat her or anyone else she says “Yes, well luckily we have the kitchen keep a stock of meat in case a griffon ambassador arrives. If you would like I could have them make you some.” She says. “No it’s fine I don’t have to eat meat all the time only about once a month to stay healthy and I know it makes you uncomfortable.” You reply. “That’s quite nice of you Mike. Thank you.” She says. You grab a plate and fill it with some pancakes, eggs, and toast and begin eating. At this point Twilight decides to chime in to the conversation. “So Mike tell us about your people?” She asks. “Sure, but let’s wait till the others get here so I don’t have to repeat myself.” You reply. “That’s understandable.” Celestia says. Twilight looks sad, but agrees. Luna arrived just after your little conversation ended she refused to look you in the eye as she sat down. Twilight and Celestia greeted her as did you, but when you spoke she blushed and the room drifted into an awkward silence which was luckily broken by the arrival of Cadence shortly after. “Good morning all” Cadence says. “Good morning” Everyone replied simultaneously. “Now that everypony is here will you tell us about your people?” Twilight asks. “I do believe that was the deal” You reply. You take a minute to figure out where to begin. “The human race is an evolved form of monkey to my understanding. In the beginning of our existence we would group into small clans because as you can see we have little to no natural defenses, but what we did have is intelligence. If we ever ran into a problem we couldn’t fix with our own two hands we would build a tool to help us complete our task be it a stick with a rock tied onto it ask a makeshift hatchet or a sharpened stick as a makeshift spear. After many years of this cave man lifestyle we got more adventurous and began to leave our shelters in order to find either a warmer climate or better hunting grounds which in turn gave us more problems which we were forced to solve. Using our ingenuity we solved said problems, but our wanderlust still remain so we continued to expand and explore eventually some of us reached non frozen fertile ground and we began to plant our food in order to no longer have the need to hunt always this is how the first civilizations arose people would group into community’s where everyone had a specific job be it a farmer, a hunter, or leader. This basic idea of civilization is still what we use in modern civilization although the professions have slightly changed, but I digress. After many years of the hunter/gatherer stage humans began to invent to try and improve the overall life quality of themselves and those around them. We started trying to understand how things worked and in turn we discovered many things, but there were still many things unknown to us, things like the weather, the day night cycle, or just about anything that could not be easily explained. These things were just chocked up as acts of whatever god they worshiped. This brings up the topic of religion, we humans have always had trouble dealing with the unknown and it scared us, so to help us deal with the unknown we created gods as an excuse for all of the things we couldn't understand. Some cultures had gods for everything from the sun to wine. Now after many years of technological and cultural advancement we as a race evolved, got smarter, and eventually took over the planet as its only sentient race.” You say while skipping the topic of war. “That’s amazing!” Twilight says. “Indeed to think something that started as a primal species solely based off instinct could evolve into what we see in front of us.” Celestia adds. After you finish your meal you ask Twilight what time she would like to have her date she says that you’ll leave the castle at about 5, so you had about seven hours to get ready. Not wanting to get lost again you ask Celestia for directions to your room, which she gives you. You then walk to you room to get ready for the days events.
