A Dash Of Life.

Chapter Five: What The Hell Is Going On.

We reached Twilight's library in haste. By now I was calmly panicking about the location of my friend. Twilight opened the door with her magic and was greeted by spike curled up in a corner muttering to himself. Upon noticing her, Spike jumped up and hugged her leg.

"Oh Twilight, it was horrible! This strange creature that res... Resem...."

"Spike, don't use long words if you don't know how to say them properly."

"Right, sorry. Anyway, this thing looked like an ape without fur! Except it had hair on it's head."

I peeped my head from behind Twilight. Spike looked up, noticed me and ran back screaming.

"Spike, calm down. These creatures mean no harm." She gestured to me. "This one actually helped Rainbow Dash when I..... Messed up."

Upon realising that the other creature might have been my friend, I asked spike where it was.

"D-downstairs in the basement." He said, still frightened of me. I walked past him and through the door to the basement. I heard giggling from the room ahead. I continued to walk down until I could see what was happening without being noticed. I saw what looked like the Cutie Mark Crusaders playing with my friend.

"Now that we've caught a monster for real, maybe now we can be Cutie Mark Crusader Creature Catchers." Said Scootaloo.

"Yeah!" Applebloom and Sweetie Belle said in unison. Sweetie Belle squeaking a little.

I clasped my hands over my ears ready for what was to happen.

"CUTIE MARK CRUSADER CREATURE CATCHERS! YEAH!"

The three of them grabbed a rope from a nearby table and threw it around my friend. They proceeded to run around her in circles, each circle tying her up in another layer of rope. When they ran out, they tied a bow and jumped up at her. The force of three fillies jumped at her at once caused her to fall over onto a chair. The four of them laughed together.

"I see you four are having fun." I said, finished my walk down the stairs.

"Josh!" Neeky said. "These three fillies are just one big ball of energy. I can't seem to get them to stand still!"

"That's the Cutie Mark Crusaders for you." I walked over to Neeky to untie her.

"YOU WHAT?!?!"

I looked up to where the shouting had come from.The five of us ran up there as fast as we could. We charged through the open door to find spike on his knees and Twilight standing over him. The other five where as far back as they could get.

"I'm sorry! It freaked me out! I didn't know what else to do!" Spike pleaded.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Spike sent a letter to Princess Celestia just before we arrived. She'll be here any second!"

As if on cue, the front door slammed open and Me and Neeky were enveloped in a yellow aura of magic. I watched as the six ponies spoke with Princess Celestia. It was all inaudible because the magic aura was soundproof. Without warning, the whole library disappeared in a flash. The next thing I new, I was in a prison. With six ponies. Plus Celestia. Looking at me through iron bars.

this isn't going to end well. Last time I read a Fic with prison, humans and a very pissed Celesita, it ended with interrogation. And that had a lot of pain involved. I thought to myself. Thinking never helped me ease my mind. It always made it worse. That's why I never think.

"What planet do you come from?" Celestia asked.

Straight to the business. "Earth.

"I have dealt with your species before. Albeit they were more primal. But the same species. Tell me, how did you master inter-dimensional travel?"

"We haven't yet."

"Then how did you get here?"

"You're going to make me explain every little detail aren't you. Well, if you must know..........."

I explained all of what happened from the moment Dash came, to here.

"You don't have to go back if you don't want to." Said Celestia. "From what you have said, your life will be better here."

"I didn't want to go back." It was true. Although I will miss my friends, I would rather live a good life than a bad life with very few friends.

"Sister, What is all the noise?"

"My dear Luna., come down here and meet the new additions to our kingdom."

"But why do we need humans in our kingdom?"

"We do not need them. But they wish to stay so I have granted them that privilege. I have recommended that they stay in the castle until they find a residence in which they can stay. Twilight, could you release them?"

"Yes Princess." A purple beam of light shot toward the lock on the door. It seeped into it and unlocked the door. We both walked out and thanked the Princesses.

"You shall be staying in either mine or Luna's rooms. I'm afraid the guest rooms are filled."

"Thank you Princess."

"Twilight will also be staying."

Twilight looked up at the Princess and politely said. "What?"

Princess Celestia giggled lightly. "Oh Twilight. I believe that this could be a wonderful opportunity for you to study these magnificent creatures."

"Oh. Ok then. Will I be staying in my old tower?"

"Oh but of course! That tower shall remain forever yours my faithful student."

"Thank you princess."

I chose to stay in Luna's room. I do think Luna is the best princess. I didn't tell Celestia that. I just made a joke on how I don't like to sleep with the light on. Yeah, it didn't go so well. I was left there looking like an idiot. Luna showed me around her room. The one thing I didn't like was the sleeping arrangement. I would be sleeping in the bed WITH Luna. She was almost twice my size. And that's not counting the horn. I feared that if she were to roll over, I would be crushed. Or if she stabbed me with her horn. But me being to chicken to speak up, I obeyed. That, and the only other option was to sleep on the floor. I crawled into bed and hoped to be asleep before Luna returned from lowering the moon. Thankfully, I was just about asleep when I heard the door creak open. After that, it was all dreams.
