Seth was a dark gray, alpha-male wolf with a scar over his right eye and the wolfpack emblem burned on his right leg. He and Twilight had been arguing over the mission in which they were assigned by the princess. That mission being to make contact with another universe and establish solid relations. In Seth’s mind, there were already numerous ways this could go wrong. When the princess requested him as the landing party, Seth lost all positive feelings towards the mission. The two were now in Golden Oaks Library, where Twilight was planning out the final details for the teleportation spell. “Look, the princess wanted to establish good relations with anypony who might be on the other side. You, being the royal diplomat, our best bet.” Twilight pointed out. “Plus, being a warrior could come in handy if you run into trouble.” This earned an eye rolling from Seth. He knew he had already lost after the princess persuaded him, but he was giving his last shot anyway. “Fine. But I am going to state that I’m only doing this because I’m being forced at hornpoint.” Seth sighed, standing from the couch he had been resting on. “So tell me what to do so I can just get home that much quicker.” With a grin of success, Twilight guided Seth over to the center of the library. There had been a number of chock lined drawn on the floor. Seth was directed to stand in the centermost of the white scribblings while Twilight cleared her throat. “It’s rather simple on your side. While I channel the magic into the magic essence-” “You mean the chalk?” Seth interrupted. He was going to make this as annoying as possible for her until this was over. “I will channel magic into the essence,” Twilight repeated while giving Seth the death stare. “Then the spell should activate and bring you to your new land. All you have to do is stand there and look pretty.” Twilight finished, powering her horn. The essence started to glow around Seth as he began to feel a slight instinct of regret. A beam of purple light flared from Twilight's horn, directed right to where Seth was standing. When the beam hit, it caused Seth’s vision to shift in brightness. As he began to feel a sense of weightlessness, a curial question passed through the wolf’s mind. “Wait! Twilight, how do i get-” With a flash, Seth vanished from the library. All that remained was a small burnt spot of floor where the wolf had stood. Andrew Clark plugged in the last cable of the router, bringing a display of lights from the piece of hardware. “So, do you see the ping yet?” Andrew called into his phone. “Give me a sec, I’m refreshing the database.” A voice answered. Andrew Clark was a 15 year old dark haired male. Although from his look, you might guess him to be in his twenties. He sported a somewhat neat beard and was roughly 6’ 7”. He currently was dealing with installing the entire tech grid for his new home. He had just moved to military town on account of his dad joining the airforce, again. They didn’t intend to be transferred half across the nation, but it could have been worse. This was the third day in the new home and he was finally getting a portion of his life back, the internet. His Dad was at the airbase, probably doing the same thing he was doing here, adjusting to the new life. “Ok, I see the ping. You are online once again, Andrew.” The voice called again. “Good, now I can forward all my files. Thanks again for doing this for me, Cam. And again, I’m sorry to have left you like I did.” Andrew answered, a tone of regret in his voice. “Hey, just remember to skype me every once and a while. I’ll still be here to talk.” Cam said. “You think you will be ready for your first day of highschool, again?” He asked. “I still have a day of peace before I’m forced to go. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not hating school, tomorrow’s Friday. It doesn’t feel logical to send me anyway. Also, it’s just that joining this new school is like casting the final blow to my old home. .” Andrew answered, the sadness increasing. “Hey, don’t go all mushy on me. I’ll be on BF4 tonight, so be ready to go on another tank spree later. I know that always cheers you up.” “Sure thing. Well, I’ll see you then. Good-by Cam.” Andrew said “Later Andrew” Cam replied before hanging up. Andrew looked down at his phone, recalling old memories of the times back home. After several minutes of recollection, he was roused by the tone of his computer finally booting up  after reconfiguring itself. He walked over to his new office and sat down on the leather chair facing the computer. The one thing that could possibly take the sadness out of Andrews mind would be the recently united internet. He pulled up his G-mail and checked to see if he missed anything during the move. As usual, there was nothing new, although he skimmed through the old documents to see if he needed to do anything with them. After finishing the look-over, he flipped over to his page on FimFiction. When the page was loaded, he was surprised to see that he had a new notification. He clicked the illuminated icon, presenting that a user was watching him. The name of the user made him nearly made him question if he was dreaming. Apparently, the NSA had followed him. “Figures” Andrew said to no one in particular. “When Cam said the feds were everywhere, he wasn’t kidding.” He was about to close the page when a bright strobing light flashed from the hallway. With rational thought trying to figure out what the phenomenon could be, Andrew sat there, speechless. As the flashing subsided, and eventually stopped, Andrew decided it best to see if anything was damaged or harmed in spontaneous event. He walked out of the office, down the hall, and turned to see something that nearly made him scream in sheer horror. Standing there in the middle of his living room, strains of vapor steaming from his fur, was a large, dark gray, wolf. Andrew was about to yell with the top of his lungs, but all the air in his body seemed to no longer exist. Instead, a near silent wine came from his mouth, which caused a perk in the canine’s ears. The wolf turned towards him, blue eyes staring into his. After ten seconds of the stair-off, it was the wolf to make the first move. “Hello.” The wolf spoke, only scarring Andrew more. Eyes widening, he began edging towards his office. “Sorry for startling you, I am a diplomat from another dimension.” The wolf explained, “I was sent here by the princess of Equestria, a land of magical talk-” “Wait, one: You can talk! Two: You’re from Equestria!” Andrew yelled, logic being his default backup. “Wolf plus Equestria plus diplomat equals...” Either logic is no longer existent, or... nothing. He thought to himself. Well, only one way out of this. “Ok, since you’re new here, welcome to Earth. Let me just call the leader of our nation and tell him you are here.” Andrew said, before running to his office. Closing the door behind him, Andrew bailed under his desk and pulled out his phone. He dialed 9-1-1, and heard the phone dial. With the click of the other line opening, Andrew began his rant. “Hello, my name is Andrew Clark. I have a wolf that is right outside my door. I would suggest sending animal control, the cops, hell send S.W.A.T. if you ca-” “I’m sorry, but at your present location, there is no signal. Please call again. Thank you.” An automated voice said. Looking down at his phone, Andrew yelled, “Curse you, At&t!” “Uh, is this a bad time?” He looked up to see the wolf looking straight back at him. At this distance, Andrew could clearly make out the scar and the emblem on the wolf, confirming the one possible idea. The only problem being that said idea would also confirm that logic no longer existed. “I would leave, but I sort of can’t...” Ok, only one chance for logic to be existent. “Your name wouldn’t happen to be Seth, would it?” The wolf looked at him with suspicion. “Yes, why do you ask?” Ok, Seth Eclipse is in my house. My OC that I created is in my house. Logic is now nonexistent. Andrew just stared back at Seth, Seth did the same. A chime from Andrew’s computer broke the silence. Both heads turned to the screen which now read, Half-Life 3 Pre-order now! “Well, unless you brought Pinkie with you,” Andrew said to Seth. “Then today, logic has finally stopped existing.” The two sat in the room, Andrew had a hand over his face while Seth continued to stare at the mess he had potentially caused. Finally, Seth attempted to break the ice. “Well, I think introductions are in order. My name is Seth Eclipse. I am a royal diplomat from the nation of Equestria. I’m here to secure peace between dimensions so that future generations can prosper from...ya, I’m  sorry about this. Twilight told me to use this in case of things falling apart.” Something finally clicked in the mind of the man. “Wait, so Twilight had something to do with this. Figures, she messed up time travel, now she messed up cross-universal altering.” “Ya, she can do that from time to t-” Then it hit him. Seth approached Andrew, a look of annoyance clear on his face. “How do you know my dimension?” “You’re a talking wolf, frankly I’m still surprised you know english.” Andrew replied, trying to change the subject. “So, where I’m from, everyone speaks english.” Seth said, obviously buying into the new tangent. A chime from the wall clock confirmed that the time was nine. “Look, I’m not trying to be rude, but I have my first day of school tomorrow. My dad is going to be at the air base for the rest of the night and won't be back till Saturday night. If you want to stay here, you can.” “Ok, thanks. I don’t mean to intrude or anything.” Seth humbly said. Andrew did his usual routine for the night: brush teeth, undress, ext. Seth had already found a nice piece of carpet for him to sleep on and had begun to render himself open to unconsciousness. Andrew walked in to find Seth fast asleep. He pulled the top blanket from his bed over the wolf, seeing as it was already below freezing outside. He jumped into bed and let himself relax. He needed every last ounce of energy if he wanted to survive this event, let alone the first day highschool.
