Prologue.


"What the heck?" Steve says to himself. "This does not make sense. How does this place have such good graphics? The trees look so... Real- it doesn't make any sense!" Steve walks around in the woods and then thinks to himself; why not try to get wood? He goes to a tree and punches it good and hard, but sees that he has taken some damage from it! What the hell? I should not be taking damage! Steve thought. He then notices that his health is not recharging. Ok... Why is my health not recharging? Steve thought. Fuck man what do I do...? Steve looks around a bit to find the edge of the woods and sighs in relief when he sees it. As Steve runs towards the edge of the woods he sees a village nearby. Awesome a village near my spawn- Even better, Steve thinks as he sprints to the village.
-------------------------------------------------
Steve arrives at the village thinking that there would be squidwards (um, villagers!) Instead, he finds that the area is populated by ponies. As they all just stare at Steve, one walks up to him. Steve sees that she is purple and throws his eyes at the hair. He sees that it is dark blue with two streaks- one pink and one purple. She stares at him. Why is she staring, Steve thought. This is just getting creepy, maybe I should say something.
"Umm hi?" Steve says.
She smiles uncomfortably and Steve guesses that she is trying not to be shocked that he can talk.
"Um hi." the purple pony says.
"What's you're name?" Steve asked, trying not to be awkward.
"My name is Twilight Sparkle and you are?"
"Steve... it's Steve." He replied.
"Nice to meet you! If it's fine with you could we talk at my library?" Twilight says. She is obviously interested in this new species.
"Sure, why not?" Steve agrees.
As he walks over to a tree that is hollowed out he enters it. When he looks around he finds five more ponies and a dragon.
"Who's the dragon?" Steve asked, surprised. The only dragon he knew of was the ender dragon and it was deadly.
"Oh- hes my assistant. He helps me with cleaning the library." Twilight explains apathetically.
"Cool, but the dragon in my worlds a lot different." Steve says, a little stressed. He ignores Twilight's confused look and says, "The more important thing is I don't know where to live."
"You can live here." Twilight says.
"I'm not much of a bookworm, so sorry but no." Steve murmurs.
"You sound like Rainbow Dash... but thats okay, I guess.just tell me what you'd like so I can guess on who you should stay with."
"Well I'm loyal, I'm a adventurer person, I never back down to a challenge, and I love to do pranks. And that all I can think of."
Twilight beamed. "Rainbow Dash- down to the 'bookworm' core." Twilight turns to RD. "Are you okay with him living with you?"
Rainbow shrugs.“Sure, it would be nice to have some company. It can get pretty boring."
"Ok, your living with Rainbow Dash then." Twilight says. "I want to ask a few questions if that's fine with you." She magically takes a note and pen from the table next to her and begins scribbling things down.
"Um... okay, I guess." Steve says.
"Ok, what are you?" Twilight asks.
"I'm a human, basically we are the evolution of apes."
"Uh huh," Twilight says as she writes it down.
"Ok, where did you come from?" Twilight continues.
"I came from a world known as minecraftia." Steve explains.
"Ok, can you mate?" Twilight said. The question was unexpected and Steve jumped a little.
"Um, well yes." Steve says, blushing.
"Sorry but we need to know about you humans a little more to understand you. Now tell us the history of 'Minecraftia."
He spent a few hours talking about minecraftia. Twilight listened eagerly, occasionally taking notes. Eventually he concluded. "And that's all I know about minecraftia."
"Wow." Twilight said, wide eyed. "Now some more personal questions... How old are you?"
"I'm 22."
"Fluttershys the same age." Twilight giggled a bit. "Now, have you ever dated?"
"Nope."
"What were your parents like?"
"Well I never knew my parents.... I only ever had a brother."
"Ok, how did you get here?" Twilight continued to ask.
"Well I went through something known as the nether portal-  basically it sends you hell."
"Hell? Is that like Tartarus?"
"Tartarus? I guess." Steve shrugged, a little confused.
"For confirmation, whats hell like?"
"Well before I landed here I saw a lot. I saw a monster- a rotten pig from the look of it. It is told that those things are human souls trapped in a ever lasting pain." He stops for a second. "Asfor the world, it's red- like, blood red. There was fire and lava everywhere. That's all I can say." Steve concluded.
He spent a few more hours talking and  got to know their names. He had fun and boring times and then, when he was ready to go and live with Rainbow Dash, Twilight cast a cloud-walking spell on him so that he didn't fall through.
"How am I going to get up there?" Steve asked, looking up at Cloudsdale.
"Like this." Rainbow Dash takes his arm and she begins to fly to her house.  
---------------------------------
After a short while Steve got to her house and she put him down on the cloud. Dang man this feels like the softest pillow in the world, he thinks.
"You were a lot heavier than I thought you'd be," Rainbow Dash pants and wipes sweat off her forehead.
"Yep..." Steve agrees, even though he didn't know how heavy he really was.
"Anyways, time to hit the sack I guess." Rainbow Dash said.
"Okay, I'll take couch." Steve says, looking at a couch made of clouds.
"Okay." Rainbow dash nods.
"Goodnight." Rainbow Dash says.
"Goodnight."
As he lies down on the couch, he falls asleep almost instantly.
