//------------------------------// // Welcome to the jungle... Forest... Whatever // Story: The strange life of a human in Equestria // by The Batmane of equestria //------------------------------// You wake up screa- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" You wake u- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" *ahem* You wake up scre- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" YOU W- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" ARE YOU DONE NOW!? "Yes, sorry." You say Thank you. Anyway, you wake u- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" I swear if you don't shut up I will cancel this story and you will cease to exist! ... As I was saying, you wake up screaming in agony. From what? You do not know. What you do know is that you could really do with some morphine right about now. Your eyes shoot open, your pupils widening to take in your surroundings. You're on the floor. A grassy floor. Scratch that, you're in a freaking forest! You look around some more from your position on the floor, the pain having been nulled. You are in the middle of a clearing, the sounds of a spring morning advancing on your ears. The trees around you make a towering roof above the forest. You stand slowly, getting your bearings. Strange. I don't remember falling asleep in a forest. Must have been one hell of a night. any drowsiness you had in your body leaves as a large roar shakes the ground beneath you. You crouch low to stop yourself from falling over and your senses heighten, preparing for a fight. The bushes to your right start to shake. You twist your body towards the new sound. As if on cue, another roar is heard. Suddenly a large lion... Bear... Thing leaps at you. It stops in front of you, nose to nose, glaring into your soul. After a minute, you take the logical course of action. "GOTTARUNFASTGOTTARUNFASTGOTTARUNFAST!!!!" You scream, turning around and bolting through the undergrowth, startling the creature enough so that you could escape. You keep on running , stopping for nothing. You even passed what you assumed was a house in a tree. Nope. Been watching too much Star Wars. GOOD HEAVENS WHAT AM I SAYING!?... Thinking... Whatever. You can never have too much Star Wars! Your running lead you to the edge of the forest. As you neared the edge, stumbling through the darkness, you realised that you had no idea what forest you were in. You don't live anywhere near a forest. You live in Las Vegas, in the middle of a freaking desert! WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED LAST NIGHT!? You are about to break down when you hear something. Something that sounds a lot like talking. Though you may be mistaken. It could be another monster. The sound is coming from the outside. That means civilisation. That means phones and cars and other technology. That means there is a way home. You scramble the last few metres and into the light and realise that you are at the top of a hill overlooking a very cartoonish-looking village. Nearest to you is what you believe to be a farm, which apparently only makes apples. Strange. You head there first to see if you can access a phone to call someone, like a friend. The farm, while seemingly quite small, took you an hour to get to. As you arrive at the ranch, you notice that everything appears... Smaller. You put that down to an unnatural growth spurt as if it's normal and knock on the door. "Hold on there just a minute!" A southern-accented female voice shouts. You swear that you recognise that voice. No less than thirty seconds pass as you wait patiently. You hear footsteps on the other side of the door. Then the door creaks open. "Well what can I do for y-" Says the voice. You both stare at each other. After a few seconds, you both utter, "What the buck?" You realise you recognise the horse standing before you. Or rather, pony. In fact, you just realised where you are. And you realised what town you saw. And you also realised what forest you were in. You now come to the glaringly obvious answer to your predicament. "Holy shit. I'm in Equestria." You mumble.
