	I respawned, hoping to be back in the bed Fluttershy loaned me, but apparently, Discord's magic reset my spawn point. Just. Great. I already don't like him.
Moving onward, putting my death behind me, I noticed something was... off. I look down, and notice my feet were replaced be hooves. They were still blocky, but they weren't... feet.
"Steve!" Twilight Sparkle started to approach me. "Steve! I've been trying to find you ALL DAY!"
Sighing, I brushed the dust off my clothes. "Yeah, I apologize for that. I was over with Fluttershy, but then Discord killed me." Still holding it against him.
"I heard." She smiled a little, but it quickly disappeared. "I've been analyzing you ever since you arrived, and I've come to find some... interesting results."
Opening her saddlebags, she extracted a long, and I mean long, piece of paper. Deftly scanning it, she found the sections of interest and separated them from the rest.
"As you can see here," She began, handing them to me, "You still carry trace amounts of magic from the portal you had entered from. Now if we can break it down and recreate it, we could send you home." Now that was interesting. While Equestria is fun, I miss Minecraft and my family.
"Do you really think so?" I was yearning to return home. Looking behind Twilight, I noticed the rest of the gang approaching.
Nodding, she continued. "I do. After we do get the spell perfected and can send you home, we might be able to set up permanent settlements in your world and the other way around. This would be a great step forward in science. Now, I do have more to talk to you about."
"What'd be that, sugarcube?" Applejack asked as she and the other four got within talking distance. While there was plenty of open space, everyone decided to crowd around on the dirt road. It was a little cramped.
Twilight frowned, her features scrunching up. "Well, allow me to show back at the library." Her horn started to glow that rich purple of her eyes, and suddenly, Poof!
It was instantaneous, but I was blinded for a second, and it gave me sickness for ten seconds. Not to mention, it seemed that teleporting here had the same effect of teleporting with an Ender Pearl, that is, I took a few hearts of damage.
After I regained my vision, I inspecting my current surroundings. Everyone was still here, add one surprised baby dragon. It was quite a large library. In the center, there was a bust of an equine. While it was, and still is, a library, Twilight had done quite a good job of making it feel welcoming and homely.
"Now as you see here," Twilight began, already recovered from the teleport, bringing a big green board out and a small white stick she used to write on the board. "Here's Minecraft. For the sake of the demonstration, it's a cube. And here is our world, Equestria." She continued to draw and diagram the situation. "For some reason, seeing how Steve here is not only from another world, but a different dimension altogether!"
"We already know this, egghead!" Dash blurted. I couldn't blame her. I was getting pretty impatient.
Sighing, she quickly erased the drawing just recently added to the board. "Alright, but here's the thing:" Scribbling furiously, she created a new diagram. "For some reason, the more the magic fades on Steve, the less... him, he becomes. I've been inspecting it, and his mind is becoming more and more equine by the passing days. Soon enough, his body will follow behind it."
"Like this?" I lifted my foot/hoof thing to show them. The surprise was expected, but Twilight's was less so.
Fluttershy approached my leg cautiously, as if she was afraid she was going to catch some terrible disease. "Are you going to be okay?"
"He should be fine," Twi reassured, "but the effects may be irreversible. we must work fast. Celestia knows how fast this will happen."
"Oh! I've got to create a line of clothing now before he becomes a pony permanently!" And Rarity was off. All that was seen was the papers flying and the white blur of her darting out. She can move.
Applejack sighed and Pinkie Pie just laughed. "She's always like that!" Pinkie said, surprisingly for the first time today, but now she'll never stop. "Rarity is always going on and on and on about fashion and dresses and anything pretty. She just can't stand ugly, and just yesterday she was saying 'You know Pinkie, I really need to make some clothes for Steve. He looks so ragged in those casual clothes he always wears.' And of course I agreed with her, I mean, she's NEVER wring about fashion, and she went off like she just did, but not nearly as fast, of course, but she left and I didn't see her for the rest of the day, so I went to Sugar Cube Corner..." She was speaking a million words a minute, and after that, I, and I think everypony... one else did too.
"as I was saying," Twilight started up once again, Pinkie's voice becoming a droning background ambiance, "I need to get to Canterlot and confer with the Princess about getting a team of trained unicorns together and making this portal spell." She finished her doodles on the board, all steps clearly labeled and put in both chronological and alphabetical order.
"Okay..." I began, taking it all in. "so when do we start this plan of yours?"
Smiling, Twilight was obviously proud of the acceptance of her theoretical plan. "We start tomorrow in the morning. The..."
"Cupcakes are done!" Pinkie exclaimed, cutting off both Twilight and herself.
"What are you..." Rainbow Dash began, but she was already gone. "That filly is so weird."
"As I was saying, we start in the morning. Celestia shouldn't have anything then, and anyways, the sun has already set. Rainbow, if you could tell both Pinkie and Rarity, I would greatly appreciate it."
Dash saluted Twilight, accepting the task. "I'm on it!" And then she too "dashed" out of the room with blinding speed.
"Applejack, if you could pack some apples for the trip, that would be great." Twilight turned to the country girl. "While we will be taking the train, Canterlot is rather expensive."
"You can count on me, sugarcube." AJ tipped her hat to us, and left for Sweet Apple Acres. So far, she was the only one we count visually track out the room."
All that was left in the room was Twilight, Fluttershy, and myself, not counting the purple dragon stacking books and dusting off the general area. He still has yet to say anything, assuming he, or she, could.
"I-is there anything you need me to do, Twilight?" Fluttershy squeaked.
Twilight sat down, thinking. "I don't think so, although you're being a great friend, accepting Steve into you house. I guess you could keep providing him with a place to sleep as long as he isn't a nuisance." She turned to me. "You're not going to be a nuisance, are you?"
"I hope not."
"Good." Twilight then finally turned to the dragon. "Spike, could you write a letter to the Princess telling her we will be visiting in the morning?"
The dragon, Spike, nodded. "Of course, Twilight. I'll get right on that."
We then left for Fluttershy cottage. It has been a long day, even though all we did was talk about how I was from a different dimension and how I was becoming a pony. It was tiring, and I was ready to get started on that plan so I could return home.
"Same room as before, if that's okay with you." She said, waving a hoof towards the stairs. "Now Discord," she directed herself to her roommate, becoming assertive, "I don't want any trouble from you. Understand?"
"Oh me?" He looked hurt as a halo appeared above his horns. How ironic. "Why, I would never dream of causing trouble. You and your friends reformed me, remember?" That might be true, but I remember this morning.	
Coughing, I gained their attention. "Well, I'm going to retire. Goodnight, Fluttershy. See you soon, Discord." Unfortunately, I mentally added.
