//------------------------------// // A fun day with the Princess // Story: A quick trip through the universe // by Quick lightning //------------------------------// "Um hello" Alright I must be sleeping. The mane 6 are outside of my house and staring at me. This must be a dream, it has to be. If they are this is awesome, if not cool dream. I should probably say something else to break the ice with them but, I bet I should act like I don't know them. That is most likely my best bet. The mane 6 were all still just staring at Tim with slack jaws not knowing how to respond. "Do any of you know where I am?" Tim asked. "Um... W-well hello, you are in equestria" replied twilight. "And were is that exactly" Tim said with false confusion. "On the planet equine" she stated with a hint of confusion."Do you not know how you got here" "Not exactly" "We'll help you then, right girls" "Yea of course" they replied in unison. "Well are we going to throw a welcome party" yelled pinkie. "How about before that we learn each others names" Tim said. "Well I am Twilight Sparkle, I am the local librarian and student of the princess" Twilight responded. "Hi i am pinkie pie, but you can just call me pinkie, I work at sugercube corner, it's the best bakery in equestria, you should totally stop by some time, I will give you a cupcake" Pinkie blurted out in one breath. "Well darling, I am Rarity, I run the boutique in ponyville" she replied in her usual posh manner. "The names Rainbow Dash, the most awesome best flier in all of equestria. You had better not forget that" Rainbow Dash boastfully said. "and ah'm Applejack, if ya'll ever need apples come down to my farm" said A.J.(I am not good at writing southern drawl so bear with me) After a short silence"I'm Fluttershy" flutter said quietly "I am sorry, I didn't catch that" Tim said in a calm tone. "I'm flutershy" "Um...was that Fluttershy?" "Ya, she can be a bit shy" Rainbow Dash replied "oh well there"-leans down on one knee in front of her-"is no reason to be afraid of me" Tim calmly told her. "um..ok" Fluttershy said still a bit shy. "Lets return to the library so we can tell the princess about him" Twilight said "oh ya, almost forgot, my names Tim by the way" "Alright well what are you" Twilight said her excitement about learning get to her through caution. "A human, or homo sapien" "Well, what else?" "I will tell you later at a better time" "Alright, fine" Twilight end with a disappointed sigh. After all the talking and introductions Tim finally took in his surroundings. He was in a field near the everfree forest, with what looked like a lake nearby. There was no trails headed out to his house but, there seemed to be a cloud house near his house. He could see ponyville in the distance. It was far in the distance so it seemed small in appearance. Soon they made it to ponyville to see ponies running away from Tim screaming "MONSTER". With a disappointed sigh every time he shrugged it off and they continued there trek into town. The girls offered some symphony but, still stayed a little far from him. He couldn't blame them thought, if so weird alien came into town he would do the same thing. What a warm welcome Ponyville was bigger than he imagined it to be. He was starting to get tired from the walk over. It had to have been a few miles at least. The girls at look ready to run a marathon still. Dash was flying overhead at a steady pace even though you could see she wanted to be flying fast. I am really out of shape. Maybe I can get dash to whip me into shape. After many, many screams later they arrived at the library. Spike saw Twilight and ran outside to say there was a monster in ponyville. "Twilight there's a monster invading ponyville!" spike exclaimed not noticing Tim. "Spike, Tim is not a monster" Twilight said sternly "Wait...Tim, who is..."- spike noticed Tim-"AHHHHHHHH RUN TWI!! "Spike stop it, he is not going to hurt us, he is actually kind of nice" "NICE, look at him he's menacing" "Hey, I could say the same about you" Tim shot back. "He can talk" "ya in fact I can" Tim said hints of annoyance in his voice. "Spike could you send a letter to the princess" "Of course, on it" " Say, dear Princess Celestia, I have found the outcome of the storm to have no direr effect on ponyville but I suggest you come immediately, in is of the utmost importance. Your student Twilight Sparkle" "Alright sent now all we have to do is wait for a reply" Spike said with haste. In about a minute or so letter got burped up by spike who rushed to it, still not trusting Tim. "What does it say?" Twilight asked Dear, Twilight Sparkle I have received your message and I am thankful for your safety. I shall be there in a flash with my unicorn guard who will be with me. Your mentor Princess Celestia *vorp* *knock. Knock knock* Twilight walk to the door happy to see her mentor "Hello princess, please come in" Twilight said while nuzzling her mentor. All the ponies bowed to Celestia and Tim did as well. "That is not needed today now what is the..." "Um...that is the urgency. His name is Tim and he just arrived after the storm. "GUARDS come quick" Soon after all the guards rushed in to the library and surrounded Tim. "Princess, he does not wish us harm" "Umm yea what she said" Tim responded hastefully. "How do we know that!" The princess shouted back makeing everyone and everypony cringe."sorry, but who are you and what do you want with my ponies" oh fuck, am I going to be locked away and experimented on! "I mean them no harm, heck I don't even know how I got here"Tim said cowering a bit. Celestia softened at the sincerity in his voice "alright guards lower your weapons" They did as told "Alright, then who are you" "Umm....." still a little scared "M-my name i-is Tim Jones. I am from the country of America, on planet Earth. I have no clue how I got here, but my house came with me when I transported here in the storm." "I see, well I am afraid there is most likely no way for you tho return but we will try. Universe magic is complicated and powerful, you could be from galaxy's away in any point in time" "Well I wouldn't want you stressing over little old me" "How can you be so calm about this?" The princess asked quizzically "Truthfully, I just died on the inside. Not that this place looks bad, it's just never seeing my family..." Tim looked at the ground frowning. He may have never been super tight with his family, but a goodbye still should of been in order. "Well I truly sorry for your loss, but I must get going, I am terribly busy with my duties" "it's okay, see you princess and thanks for understanding my situation" "Please just Celestia, and it is my pleasure and I wish you the best of luck" With that the princess was off with a puff of magic with all her guards. Tim turned around to the girls who were staring at him. "um hello" Tim said while walking toward them and waving his hand. "You two got along better than I thought you would" Twilight said "Yea you two look like best friends at the end there" Rainbow Dash added "It surprised me too, but its getting late so I better head back to my house" "Alright, just don't get killed"Twilight said "I will try, but where is my house again" "Ugg...I'll show you it's just outside my house" With that the ponies dispersed and the human and Rainbow Dash headed home. Dash was surprisingly eager to learn about him but She waited till the screaming stopped before she asked anything. "so, what was your life like on your planet?" Rainbow Dash asked. "well on earth I was on break from collage, I was I was staying with my parents for the summer. I was studying to be a masseur. The only bad part was right before I got here I got drunk and mugged on the same day" Tim replied "What, that's terrible!" "Oh is not that bad, it was a fun night at least" "I would like to see you drunk then" "Well, when I get some money we will have to go drinking. I pinkie promise." after he said that he was tackled by Dash. "HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT!?" Rainbow Dash asked in a demanding tone. shit, let that one slip,think think think think think, aha pinkie finger promise! "What do you mean 'how do I know about that' does it mean something else here? Tim asked with false confusion and real fear but not letting it show to much. She could beat my arse in 10 seconds flat "YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!" "What it means for me is that two people use there pinkie fingers to shake hands" -points to pinkie finger-"what dose it mean for you" Rainbow Dash get off you with a Heavy blush." ohh, sorry for tackling you then. I'll let pinkie explain what that means. "I must say though, you would make on hell of the linebacker" Dash blushes a bit more."Really" "Yea, wait how do you even know what a linebacker is. Is there even football here" "Well, there's no football here, but there is hoofball" Tim laughs a bit."What's so funny" "The similarities between our two worlds" "Yea, I guess that is a little bit funny" Rainbow Dash says laughing a bit too. Soon after they arrive at the destination and say goodbye. Tim walks into his house and sits on apt he couch."Today has been a good day" He says to himself.
