Ten years passed since Charlie Mare had his adventure in Equestria, and his life had turned around for the better. He had friends at school, his mother loved him more than ever, and even Megan stopped pestering him. Every night, Charlie would lie down in his bed, and when no one was looking, he opened the bedside table drawer and took out the photograph of his pony friends. Then he would write a letter to Twilight. In the back of his mind, he thought such memories as childish. Sometimes, even a little bit naieve and stupid. But every time he saw something just a little bit magical, he thought of Twilight. When his friends told him something completely honestly, he remembered Applejack. Every time he saw a rainbow, Rainbow Dash sped at full speed through his mind. Every party he atended, he could swear he heard Pinkie's stifled giggling. In every reflective surface he saw, just out of sight, was the perfectly pampered tail of Rarity. Every cute animal he saw reminded him of Fluttershy, and even when he saw something odd or out of place, he even thought of Discord. These were the things that had propelled him into his life, that explosion of non-sensical glee just added more fuel to his fire of happiness. He just was glad that he, someone from a completely different universe, species and reality, learned to make friends with another. He shook his head and sighed. 10 years is a very long time. he decided to sit himself down and write one.

Dear Everypony,
Thank you all for being my friend. I can't belive to this day that this is actually how I got to where i am today. I have friends, a caring and trustworthy family, a roof over my head and a smile on my face. Needless to say, it's more than enough to get me through the day. I just wanted to... Ah, who am I kidding. I really miss all of you, and my graduation ceremony is coming up. All I really want is to see you one more time! Soon after graduation I'll be going to University. It took me ages to get in. I'll be going across the entire country! i'm not sure if I'll be completely sane without your letters. Though that weird one written in riddles from Discord didn't help much. How DOES he make a four sided triangle anyway? Well, this might be my final letter to you, so thank you and goodbye.

Charlie sighed as he stepped out of the car. he said goodbye to his mother and kissed her on the cheek. He picked up his suitcase and swaggered towards his new dorm. His pony friends may be gone, but he can make some new ones. After all, not everyone sticks with childhood friends their whole life. He found his room and opened the door to be greeted by some strangely familiar faces. Many with brightly coloured hairstyles.
"SURPRISE!" Yelled a girl with bushy pink hair tht sounded suspiciously like Pinkie Pie
"Howdy Charlie!" grinned a girl with blonde hair and a cowgirl hat
"Hello darling." said a beautiful girl with a smooth flowing voice
"What's up?" said an athletic one with a wacky rainbow hairstyle
"H-hi there." one said with a weak smile and long pink hair covering most of her face
"Hi Charlie!" the last one said. She had purple hair with some bright highlights.
Charlie's mouth broke into a huge smile. "Well, I did ask to see you all one last time." He hugged them tightly.
"How did you get here? And how long will you be staying?" he asked
"We all got your letter, and Princess Celestia was kind enough to let us come here." Twilight explained "It also serves as a way to see how humanity is recovering from Dementia's attack."
"The Princess gave us these neat-o human bodies so we can blend in!" Pinkie chipped in "It dosen't really seem to be working though..."
Gee, I wonder why? Charlie thought to himself
"So anyway, since we're going to be staying here to check on how humanity's going, we decided to enroll in your university too!"
"Well, I guess the rest of my life is just going to be one interesting event after another." Charlie said "And that's perfectly fine with me."
