Let's start from the beginning before the MLP: FIM show first aired. The time will take place in 1997. Just keep in mind that the truth is much stranger than fiction....
When I was a kid around the age of 10 years old, and my life is going through its turmoil. I have watched my parents fighting with each other over something me and my siblings did or didn't do. I was angry that I couldn't do anything to stop it because I was too young. Even if I try, I'll end up being hurt, and the world to me seems dark at the time because of all that. In those times, I just go to my room and try very hard to ignore it by playing games or play with my sisters.
There is this one time I was in my room looking out the window and saw a shooting star, and it made me smile, knowing that I could make a wish. Yet that shooting star had a color to it and it looked purple or lavender in a way but I still that made a wish after seeing it.
"I wish I could meet my guardian angel someday, and go on an adventure of a lifetime."
I said.
Then I went off to my bed and go to sleep. I started to have this dream of some lavender color pony with wings and a horn. That just came up to me and gives me a hug and then tells me that she'll be looking after me. She also says that she is hoping that I can help her out with something important someday. I recall saying one word in return, and it was "yes." She smiles, then the dream fades away, and I woke up from that dream and try to think of its meaning if there is one. Because I rarely get them and some times they can get weird when I sleep. Yet this one, I felt that hug and the way it went, seems too real. This was just a strange and random dream to me, and I thought nothing more of it, or so I have thought.
As time moves forward, I did have many of those types of dreams since after that one. I do hope I get to see more of her, only time can tell.
Moving forward in time about 12 years and the date was 08/26/2010.
I was getting myself a new Laptop, but I was limited to a few hundred dollars in my pocket, so I wasn't going to get something fancy. I went for the cheapest one I can get at the time, and I wasn't too big on how it looks. All I cared about was getting a laptop and just going on to the internet to check out my favorite fandoms. I head out to the store that was nearby my home, and it wasn't too much of a drive to get there.
Once I got there, I ask the store clerk to help me out with a laptop. She showed me their choices, and I pointed out the computer that I wanted to buy from them. She tells me that she'll check in the back of the store if they got any more to sell. Luckily they did have a few in stock, but they only came in one color, and that is lavender with sparkling glitter on it. I knew it was girly looking at the time, but I didn't care one bit and bought it anyway. I was in joy to get it even though it was this color, I still didn't care for any reason. Given the times that we're living in, it just seems to be ok for a guy to get something like that. That's why I didn't care, but I was also young too, and somewhat confused about life.
After leaving the store and getting to my car and sitting there with joy and I couldn't wait for myself to get home to open it. I just open it in the car, and the first thing I see was that color it had. I then set in the battery and started it up and begin to set up my new laptop to my personal use, and then one question came up when I was doing this.
"Name for this computer?"
This is all it asks for at this point after setting up its settings.
"I can give it a name? Cool..."
I say to myself.
So I gave its name, and that name will have some meaning to it later on, but I didn't think of anything about it. I only thought of one character that I made up, and her name is Sparkle that had a similar color to her as well. After that, I have no idea what is about taking place ahead in time for my future friends and me.
After this and going forward a little bit in time, I moved to a new place in later October of 2010. As I was getting settled into my new home for now. I was getting ready to go to sleep and thinking of what cool things will happen in my new home. I let shut my eyes then I had a dream about that odd-looking lavender color pony again, but this time there weren't any words to be heard. She levitated an object and float towards me; it was something shiny and golden. Then I finally hear her telling me this.
"This is a gift from me to you and when you receive it... Come and find me, I'll be waiting for you..."
This is all she said to me.
I try to answer back to her, but I couldn't say anything, or try moving. All I did is just stand there and watch this golden object coming towards me, and it was getting brighter like the sunrise in the morning. Till I couldn't see any more besides this glorious golden light, and then I woke up. I look around to see if I did get anything, so far nothing and then I leave it like that again, it was just a dream. It was morning, and so I got up and start my day as usual as it can be.
This is where it gets weird for me in the long run because the next events that follow didn't make much sense at first until I started to look into it. Before that happens first off, let's go to a different date in the story, let's go with the date of 01/24/2011. I was at Further Confusion, and I was enjoying my favorite things to do over there like cosplays, sharing art, and dancing. Until I've noticed something posted all over the walls in the venue of the con and my friends at the time told me about it. I look to where these pictures are at, and it was that lavender unicorn and her friends. For some odd reason, I feel like I have met this unicorn, but it didn't ring much of a bell for me. So once again I didn't overthink so much about it. I went ahead and read what it says, and it talks about is this new mlp, and they are having a meeting about it. At first, I was like any other guy that see things like this and think to myself.
(So this is going to be new to the furry fandom like any cartoon, anime, or game character that I've seen before and become part of this fandom. Well, I'll welcome them since their new on the seen here. Also isn't this show for little girls? Oh well, to each their own, I guess...)
That's what my thoughts are going with at the time.
After the events of the con, I was left with joyful thoughts in my mind. All of my friends were all talking about the things at the con and the new mlp generation showing up. My thoughts just continue with what I had done at the convention, and I did not think about anything else. A little bit later on, I decided to hang out with some of my friends at a restaurant, and this place is where everyone in the fandom likes to go to and hang out. We all talk about everything in the fandom, from awesome fursuits, to what we did in the last con. One of my friends wanted to play a video about these characters named Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy. This was the first PMV that I ever watched, and this video has the most cussing in one video that I ever watch, and it was funny as hell. Because of how cute and innocent they look and singing the foulest mouth song ever. After that, it did leave me interested in this show. I still remember how it opens up, see that lavender unicorn that was telling her pink friend that she didn't steal her song.
With nothing but laughter and smiles from hanging with some awesome people. I left for home, and all I had on my mind is that video and the whole pony thing, and it only made me more curious about it even more. I started to looking into it and find out that this small group of people has started their own fandom and it was independent and innocent at first, but I still choose not to watch the show or look up anything else about it, besides the honest part about them. I did come across one image of that lavender unicorn again with the meme about love and tolerance. I wanted to know a little bit more about and her name, and once I did learn about her and finding this all interesting, about her and her friends. I was left a few questions about it, but I was too tired, so I went off to bed and left with that image of her in my mind.
Then I did had a dream about her, but it was hard to remember how it went down. I can only recall seeing her trying to reach for me like she needed help, but I don't know how to react. Trying to tell me something but no words to be heard and only her lips are just moving. I can barely make out what she is saying to me. The best I could come up with is. "Look out for her... She will hurt you... If she did, look for me..." I try to make out what else she is trying to say but I can't. Then I try to say something but I can't as well, but I move my hand toward Twilight as did she the same with her hoof. When I did that the one thing I've noticed is that my hand looks like a hoof as well. After that, everything went black.
I woke up breathing heavily, and I was looking at both hands to make sure it was a dream, then I started to think to myself. Like what does that dream meant because they have meanings to them sometimes? All I look into the internet to some sort of an answer to my crazy dreams but all of lead to other conclusions. Like to what have you eaten, lucid dreaming, or my subconscious making it up from what I saw before. There was one I did found on it, but it just gives something simple to what I see it in. Like items, people, places, and things that happen to you from the past. Not getting the answers that I want and I know that these dreams have more meaning to them because of how real they felt to me.
Moving forward in time towards October in 2011. I did have a girlfriend, and I was starting to believe that my life is almost complete, but the thing is that it wasn't so perfect, to begin with. When I realized the girl, I was with, left me for another man.
That left me heartbroken, and I know I did my best to keep her happy, I guess it wasn't enough for her. Now feeling depressed and the only thing I had left is my laptop, a bottle of booze and my friends on the internet that ever now and then mention about mlp and how it helps them out with their depression in life. I know that this year is about to end, but I was too depressed to even care how it will the year ends, or anything for that matter.
Yet I did more reading about the things that this show did for people out there. I decided to check out the fandom again, and it was growing over time. From the troubles they have gone through, or how awkward they felt towards the furry fandom and don't see themselves. I don't blame them for being new to the world.
Going through what's left of that year and start of the first month of 2012. I did go to my favorite con, and this time I have noticed a lot more things about mlp: fim this time. I still pay much attention to it, and I just continue like I always have. There is this one time I have one of my roommates go do a commission with an artist, of this anthro looking horse that was purple and tattoo of a star on her butt. Kinda look familiar to me, but not that much to ring any bells. I did have fun there like every year that I have gone to it before I even know it. The con was over, and now I'm back at home still feeling lonely and bored out of my mind.
With nothing else better to do, I finally made up my mind and just wanted to watch the show. I know that I haven't watched it in the first place and I did kinda have been avoiding it since I first heard of it. Here I was going to Netflix looking up the show and pick a random one since there were two seasons at the time. I went with the second season, and it was the first episode of this season. From there I heard the name of this lavender pony going against this crazy looking beast called Discord. I remember him mocking her, trying his hardest to stop them in saving Equestria. Just when hope seemed lost, Twilight turn it around, and her friends used the Elements of Harmony against him, and I watch Discord turn to stone. After watching that first two episodes, I ended up binge-watching from the beginning of season one till the last episode of season two, and I did follow it in the middle of season two. From there, I was like, "I want to watch more of this show." But unfortunately I had reached the end of season two and the next season won't be coming around much later on in the year of 2012.
This is when I start to really look into the fandom and begin to be a part of it. I then came across this website fimfiction.net and wanted to read all the impressive things this site has to offer. After first my reading of this story about Lyra and her epic adventures in the human world. How she found out that she was human, to begin with, and got stuck in their world. Reading this story only made me wonder if I had some sort of a connection with their world because I like to think like that for fun. Little do I know that I could be right about it.
One day I looked into my laptop because it was kinda running slow, so I check on it, and it's reporting on how it was doing for every time that I used it. I've noticed the date when I first turn it on to the last one. Then for some reason, I wanted to check out the dates for the pilot episodes and the first aired episode of MLP: FIM. I found out the pilot episode was on in October a couple months before I got my laptop and coincidentally naming it Sparkle. The more I think about this. The more that this mystery gets more profound as in to why did that happen, as a coincidence. All I could think about is that I did something that I didn't even know.
"Did I just predicted that this show would come to pass? Or it's just my imagination?"
I tell myself.
Realizing that I did something without even thinking about it. I had to look into it more, but my research ended with me just having a laptop that is lavender in color, and it is named Sparkle. My thoughts continue with that idea even till I go to sleep. When I did, I have that dream again about Twilight. Seeing that she is in some sort of trouble and trying to reach for me, but this time, I can hear her calling out my name. Yet the name she shouted out didn't sound like my name at all but hearing it sounds familiar to me. I do recall the name, and it was Midnight, she has called out to me. I wanted to call her name, but once again I couldn't say anything to her and when I try. I just woke up again from it but with a little bit more info about this dream and this is the only time that this happens in this way. This was in the middle of the night, yet I want to know more so I try again and put myself to sleep but I couldn't. When I did, I woke up the next day.
...
As time moves forward, I finally made up my OC, and it was a he, at first. I decided to name it Midnight Star, till I've decided to change it to a mare. Then finally I change up the last name a bit more. To fully put it, it's Midnight Starwriter and going by the initials of M.S. For now, and I also did a drawing of this mare. I knew I was a guy and all, but I'm not confused, or anything of such I knew who I am in life, I just wanted to do a female version of myself. As a way to express myself as an artist. I finally join this website by September in 2012 just to read and write whatever comes to mind.
...
So far time keep moving, and nothing much has happened since then, life just went on for me. Till one day I was cleaning out some old stuff on my kitchen table that has been sitting there for a while in my home and found something that I should have got in the mail that I didn't get to for some reason. The date I was in 09/15/14, but the mail that I got is a package. I took it to my room and looked at it and notice a date on it and it was dated for 10/08/10, but this didn't add up. I didn't move to this place a little after this date, and it didn't make much sense over this; it was like someone out there was watching me or stalking me. I decided to open it and was a small package and out of it came out a small box that is colored a sky blue with a bow on it of the same color. Then I open the box and found a golden necklace with a heart with wings pendant but oddly it looks like one of the Elements of Harmony. Once I pick up the piece of jewelry out the box, there was a note in it, and I took out that note as well and read it.
With this piece of jewelry, there is the power of the heart and wings. Before you adorn this piece, purify it with water and afterward by sunlight. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and say: I wish to listen to my heart, so I can fly for myself.
So I did as it says and put it on and when I did, I could feel this static energy coming from it when I put it on. Then that voice came along and called my name, but it wasn't my "real" name. It went off my OC's name instead. I try to communicate with it but no luck. After that, I slept with it on to see if anything would come to me in a dream. I did get one, and it was that same dream of Twilight being in trouble and trying to reach for me. I try to reach for her as well. As I did this, I notice that my hand looks weird. Instead of a hand, I see a hoof and that moment. Time seems to slow down as I was shocked to see that in my dream, and then I just woke up again. I was covered in sweat and breathing heavily, looking around my room, seeing that I was still here. I can't help but think how real that dream felt to me when I looked at my hand or hoof in this case. I shook my head, and I believe that this is just a dream. Yet despite that, I want to believe that this is just a pure coincidence when I think about it logically. This still didn't add up, I had to find the answers, but how?
...
Once again, time moves forward to the date of 09/26/15 and nothing much happened besides my normal life like going to work, pay bills, and visiting friends and family, and taking care of my home. I still follow the show of MLP and what's going on with the fandom on the net. This part might get some spoilers, sorry. I got to watch movie of E.G: F.G. as I was watching the climax of the film I saw Twilight of the mirror world has transformed into Midnight Sparkle and that moment I paused the movie and thought about this initials wised. I realized once again another coincidence with Twilight, but this time it's her evil counterpart because my OC's initials are M.S. I had to stop myself right there because who else in the fandom has a similar initial around the fandom. My attempt to keep my mind sane from going utterly insane from all of these weird facts that have a connection with me, and this pony show.
I did tell others in the fandom about this coincidence that I have. Most of them do believe in what I have said to be real and find it interesting. I hope I find my answers to my connection with Twilight.
...
Moving up to the present time.
Up to this day, I have to keep on coming across these weird coincidence as time keeps moving. I go visit this place in southern Washington called ECETI ranch. The only reason I visit this place because I had a dream that I went to this place in the middle of nowhere, it also told me about Q and show me the symbol of the pendant that I have. Once I finally got there, I have this weird feels of peace. I meditate on the necklace and crystal that I have on me. I heard a voice, and it told me this. "Your time is coming soon keep following the signs in your dreams, and in numbers that are paired in three and four." This is all I heard.
This is starting to drive me crazy every day trying to understand why do I have this weird connection with Twilight. I came up with the idea to use a crystal and that pendant, but I put it to the side. After a few days the gone by when I got back from that ranch. I finally made up my mind and try to meditate with a quartz crystal on my forehead while wearing the pendant. Just to see if I can trigger something, anything really because of all of these coincidences that keep happening in my life till now. It has become too much for me.
As I laid there in my bed and my eyes shut, I put all of my focus on Twilight and her world. I started to feel my body to lighten up like I was weightless and then a flash of light happens, and then I was knock out. I was waking up to find myself falling in space and seeing many stars going by me. I looked around me just to see the blackness of space and the only light source is stars, I don't know what I did to get myself there, but I feel calm. Then another light came in, and it was like I was getting pulled in by it, but I couldn't fight or try to get away from it. I just went towards it, and the feeling that I get was like a weight coming off my chest, and the feeling of pure love, then everything went black again....
