I am NOT a Pony

Chapter 1

Hi. My name's Tristan Sharp. I'm 13 years old, and live with both my parents. I had a pretty normal life. That is, until IT happened. It happened during Thanksgiving dinner with my family. My Grandparents, Cousin, Aunt and Uncle came over. I was halfway through dinner, when I had to go to the bathroom. I went upstairs and did my business, and then went to wash my hands. I looked up to the mirror, and looked at my reflection. Suddenly, I started to feel lightheaded. My vision started to go black. I fell and hit my head on the sink. It knocked me clean out. But before I fell unconscious, I thought I heard a women's voice:

"My son has returned."

...

As I woke, I felt cold marble beneath my body. I opened my eyes, and looked up. You'll never believe what I saw. I saw 9 candy colored horses. The first one was the tallest, with white fur, a horn, wings and a rainbow ethereal mane. The second was a little shorter, same deal as the first, only she was dark blue, with a night sky like mane. The Next two had horns and wings, but their manes were normal. One was purple, the other pink. Apart from them were five grouped together. One was blue, with wings, and a rainbow mane and tail. The next one was yellow, with wings and pink hair. After that was a white unicorn, with purple mane and tail. The last two were orang and pink, and they both lacked horns and wings.

"Whoa, what's with all the horses?" I said.

"Actually, we are ponies," came a women's voice. I looked around, but didn't see anyone.

"Who said that?" I asked.

"I did," said the tall white one. My eyes went wide.

"Oh my FREAKING GOD!" I yelled.

"I'm sure you're a bit confused," said the tall dark blue one.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I yelled, screaming and running around until I tripped. It was then that I noticed that I had been running on all fours. I took a look at myself, but I wasin't prepared for what I saw. "I need a mirror, I need a mirror!"

"Oh, I think I have one," said the small white pony with purple hair. Her horn glowed blue, and a mirror, enveloped in the same blue was levitated over to me.

"Whoa! How'd you do that!" I yelled.

"Oh, it's just simple levitation magic," she said. I took a moment to process this, then took a look in the mirror. What I saw was a small pony with wings and a horn. My fur was grey, and my mane was black. My bangs hung over my left eye.

"What's going on here!" I yelled. The ponies looked toward each other, then the tall dark blue one stepped forward.

"It's not going to be easy for you to hear this, but here it goes...I'm your mother!" That shocked me for a second, but once I processed this new information, I did the only thing I could do. I started laughing.

"AAAHHH hahahaha! Y-yeah sure, and I'm the king of Venus! Ahhahahah!" The Purple pony looked cross for a second, but then she spoke up again.

"It's true!" she said. I stopped laughing and wiped a tear from my eye with my han-I mean hoof.

"Lady, my mom's name is Katherine, and she's a human."

"No...she's not. You were adopted."

"Nah uh!"

"Please, let me explain. Here me out. Please."

"Alright fine." She took a deep breath, then spoke.

"Well, it all started 13 years ago. I gave birth to a beautiful foal, whom I named Midnight. But it was not long after, that tragedy struck. A powerful spirit of Chaos called Discord returned from his stone imprisonment. He caused much chaos that day, but none as heartbreaking as when he took my child. We found out that Discord sent my child to another realm, and turned him from a pony, to a human."

"Alright," I said. "I'm guessing that kid was supposed to be me, right?" She nodded. "Let's say that I believe you. Why wait 13 years to bring me back?".

This time the small purple one spoke. "The spell is extremely high level, so much that it takes four Alicorns to perform. We didn't have four, until just recently."

"What's an Alicorn?" I asked.

"An Alicorn has Pegasus wings, and a unicorn horn. Me, my sister Celestia, Twilight, Cadence, and you are all Alicorns," said the purple one, who claimed to be my mom.

"Alright. Well how do you know you didn't make a mistake? How do you know I'm this Midnight?" I asked.

The tall white one spoke: "The spell we used also functioned as a DNA tracker. We used some of Princess Luna's hair, and the spell led us to you." I was starting to get anxious, there's no way this can be true.

"No, no this can't be true! I want to go back to my parents back home on earth!" I exclaimed. Princess Luna, who claimed to be my mother, looked guilty at this point.

"I'm afraid that cannot be done," she said.

"What do you mean? You can perform the spell again can't you!?" I asked.

"Well yes, but-"

"Then send me back! My parents will notice I'm gone!"

"No...they won't," she said.

"W-what? What do you mean?"

"We...I...I used a spell to erase all traces of your existence from your world. Your Parents memory of you is gone." She looked SUPER guilty.

"You...you what? No...nononononono." I said, grabbing my head, and shaking it.

"I am SO sorry. But I couldn't lose you again. You are MY son, and I wanted you back so badly that I-,"

"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR DAMNED EXCUSES!" I screamed with tears in my eyes.

"Please son,-"

"Shut up! You...you took my life away, and you expect me to just call you mom. I HATE you!" I yelled. Then I started crying.

"Please, just give me a chance!"

"No! I'm out of here!" I yelled, and ran for the door. I shoved open the door and ran down the hall. I took a turn down the stairs, and ran out the door, not caring where I ended up.
