Chapter 2: Arrival

A large ball of light seemed to appear out of nowhere and a loud thundering boom emitted from it. Then it subsided, and Twilight Sparkle and Spike looked around. They where in a field on a hill, overlooking a large paved road.

Strange cart-like vehicles rolled along the road at unusually high speeds. As they approached the road, the duo noticed some strange things about the vehicles. No one was pulling them; they seemed to be moving on their own. Instead, they all had strange creatures sitting inside.

They appeared to be apes of some sort, completely bald except for the tops of their heads. There seemed to be many kinds of vehicles as well. Most were small, some not so much, and some were huge and noisy. Some had only one ape, while others were filled with them. They all seemed to be in a bit of a hurry.

"Oh my goodness Spike! HUMANS!" Twilight called out excitedly to her dragon companion. "I always thought they were a myth, or just made up for fairy tales. But look, they're real! I guess I owe Lyra an apology."

"Aren't they dangerous?" Spike asked nervously.

"Oh I'm sure it'll be fine, as long as we're friendly." Twilight said reassuringly.

"I got a bad feeling about this Twilight." Spike said still unconvinced.

With Spike still riding on her back, Twilight walked through the field, following the road until she reached a wooden fence at the end of the field. A dirt road separated the fence bordering this field from the border of the next. Standing at the intersection of the dirt road and the large paved one was one of the humans. She quietly approached it from behind. Suddenly she heard it speak.

"Come on, where are you?" she heard him mutter to himself. At least, it sounded like a male.

"Where are you?" he asked.

"Are you looking for someone?" Twilight spoke.

The creature let out a surprised yelp and turned to face her.

"Ah, crap," he muttered. "Now I'm going crazy. Great."

"What's wrong? I didn't scare you, did I?" she inquired.

"Just ignore it, it's not real," he kept telling himself.

After a few minutes of awkward silence, a bright yellow vehicle approached them and slowed to a stop.

"Finally!" the human yelled. "What took you so long?!"

Twilight Sparkle wondered who he was talking to, as she noticed the vehicle was empty. Without warning, the vehicle seemed to fall apart, causing her to gasp in surprise. To her amazement, the pieces began to reassemble themselves into something else, a bipedal metal giant, much like the human, though much larger.

"I'm sorry! It wasn't my fault," the giant replied. "Ratchet blew a tire and insisted I change it. He said something about basic first aid."

"Well, guess that couldn't be helped." the human asked.

"Guess so," the giant replied. "So, who's your friend?"

"Wait, you see this?" the human asked, motioning to Twilight Sparkle and Spike. "So I'm not hallucinating?"

Now rather annoyed, Twilight said, "No, you're not. I could have told you that."

"I didn't know horses could talk," the giant observed.

"Not on this world," the human answered.

"Ah, so you must be from another world," the giant concluded.

"That's right," she replied. "Wait, you have horses here, too?!" she asked in excitement.

"There just animals here," the human told her. "By the way, my name's Spike Witwicky."

"And I'm Bumblebee," the giant added.

"Spike?" she giggled, "Just like my little friend right here, it's his name too. He's a baby dragon."

"Um, Hiya" the dragon greeted.

"My name's Twilight Sparkle." She replied.

"Um nice to meet ya." Spike Witwicky responded to the other worldly duo.

"So what are you two doing here on Earth if you're not from this world?" Bumblebee asked.

"Hey Bee," Spike Witwicky said, "Maybe that's a question you should save when we meet up with Optimus later."

"Yeah, good idea." Bumblebee replied.

"Umm who's Optimus? Is he the ruler of this world?" Spike the dragon asked.

"Huh? Oh no, he's just the leader of the Autobots." Bumblee responded.

"Autobots?" Twilight asked.

"Maybe we should head back to Autobot City." Spike Witicky said. "We'll tell you all about our world once we get there."

Bumblebee transforms back into his vehicle mode, "Hop on in, just be warned, Autobot City is still under construction. It's a fairly new project."

Both Spikes, and Twilight hop into Bumblebee as he drives off.

In the car Spike Witwicky addresses the little dragon. "So you're name is Spike too huh? What a coincidence. Must be a popular name across the universe huh? And a dragon. I haven't seen one since my little time traveling escapade with Hoist and Warpath. This is amazing. You know unicorns are something of myth and legend here. I guess it turns out, you're really aliens."

Twilight and Spike the dragon could only giggle in the backseat of Bumblebee, as Spike Witwicky continues to converse with the alien pony and dragon.
