	After settling down in the guest room of Twilight's castle, Sammy pulled out his diary from his saddlebag, and began writing.

10-9-16

I was able to escape the destroyed dimension. After Anicetus merged it with it's zombified counterpart, I made a last-ditch effort to escape. Luckily, thought I was ready to attack anything that threatens us, we managed to instead land in a place that the locals call "Equestria", a land apparently ruled by pastel-colored ponies with at least the same level of intelligence as we humans. Not only that, but they also have magic. Considering the fact that I have rarely used the orb to do anything other than destroy stuff to escape, I think I'll take advantage of this. One of the four rulers, (princesses, apparently.) Twilight Sparkle, has taken me in, and we have agreed on me taking daily "magic lessons" from her. But I guess that besides that, not much else has happened... yet. But anyways, I'm just glad that I can relax again for the first time in about maybe... two months? Yeah, that's right. I'm finally getting the chance to lay down in a bed, feeling safe for at least a moment, not having to worry about whether or not we'll survive the night. Though I may be currently living in a completely different body, due to the fact that for once I completely burned out the orb, which currently can't regenerate it's magic, I can't have it hold the spell that I've been using to keep us in our original bodies. So, for now, I guess we'll be going around as ponies. Zoey and I are unicorns, Caleb's a pegasus, and Brodie's a normal pony without any visible specialties. "Earth Ponies" as Twilight calls them. Also, I've discovered the fact that after we entered this world and transformed, which was surprisingly painless, we apparently also got some kind of "butt mark". According to what Twilight has told us about the way ponies work, these "cutie marks" that she pointed out represent our special talents, abilities, and hobbies.

Sammy set down his diary, with the thought "I think I've written enough for today."
He looked over at Zoey, and picked his diary back up again, and wrote on the last line:
Also, I think that Zoey's cute even when she's a pony.
