Chapter 1

Pony Fantasy Ch.1: A normal Day, or is it?

...truth will always live in the hearts of the people. The Warrior who broke the 2000 year Time-Loop is truly a LIGHT WARRIOR... That warrior was YOU!
May the Crystals always shine!
The End
...
You may now save your Game. Do you wish to save your Game?
„huh? Saving now? Well, maybe there is some post-game stuff to do...“,
I looked up from the screen onto my Clock. It showed 1 pm. Wow, did it really took 1 full hour to beat that final Boss? „Seriously Mash, you need to loosen up on playing these things“, I thought, „just because Celestia thinks it is your Talent, it doesn't mean you have to be so passionate about it.“
Mash... Button Mash. Thinking about it (again), I just realised (again) what a stupid name that is. Atleast I can't really blame my parents for it. Sure, they weren't really creative with that, but at least they DID find a name after I found my Cutie mark, even if said Cutie mark is just a Control-Stick. Seriously though, how can a Pony's special talent be playing video-games?
Putting that thought waaaaay back into my mind, I shut my Ponystation Portable down, now that „Pony Fantasy“ was completed. „So, what's ne... ugh! Do I really stink that much? Mental note to self: try not to focus so much next time, you sweat far too easy. Although that means a shower might be needed right now.“
Trotting into my Bathroom, I looked into my Mirror. My Reflection looked back at me. My orange Mane was still in the same Style: covering my right eye although it looked more oily than normal due to my body-liquids finding their way out of my interiors. My red coat (at least) looked like every other day. With that out of the way, I zipped my Shower Curtain aside with my Horn's Magic and climbed into my Bathtub. Being a Unicorn does have its advantages in everyday life, given we only have hoofs to operate everthing. Actually, sometimes I'm wondering how Earth Ponies and Pegasi actually get around that Problem, especially with things like House-Keys and so on, but now isn't the time for that. First things first, I took that necessary shower and about half an hour later, I sat in my Livingroom after not being dripping wet anymore.
„And what am I gonna do now? Maybe some reading? Guess that's an Idea at least.“ Looking into my Bookcase, I started going through my Books: „no, no, nope, finished that one 3 times already, not this one either...“ So that was a loss time in the- wait a second! Before I give up, I could atleast go looking in the Library! „Atleast I can get some fresh air along the way“ I thought. So I went out of my House, locked it (again 'yay' for having Magic), and got on my way.

It was a sunny Day outside and I took the chance to let the sun shine her warmth on me.However, I arrived at Ponyville Library after about 10 Minutes since I live at the inner edge of the City. It didn't seem to be closed, so I trotted nearer to the door and checked it. It opened, so I stepped inside.

„Ms. Sparkle? Ms. Sparkle are you here somewhere?“,
I thought this would be the most suitable thing to say since I don't know the Princess's protegé in persona after all. There was no answer, so I asked again: „Hellooooo... Ms. Sparkle?“

„What's with that „Ms.Sparkle“ thing? Just call her Twilight like everyone else!“
I jumped up a bit. Where did this Voice suddenly come from?

„Uhhh, dude, I'm right behind you“,
I turned around and saw... nothing, at first, until I realized the Speaker in question was just too small for eye-heigth. So I looked down, right into... a Dragon's face!

„Hi, there...?“

„Spike, my name's Spike“

„Okay then, Spike“,“How comes I never saw him before here?“, I thought. „Do you know where Ms.Spar-“

„Seriously, stop that. Just „Twilight“ is enough“
„Fine then, do you know where Twilight is? I wanted to borrow some Books from the Library.“

„She isn't here at the moment, she just went outside with AJ and I'm watching the Library at the moment. I would like to help you myself, but Twilight always shuts her Library stuff away when she isn't here. She thinks I would mess up her Library-Records if I would get my Claws on them. But I can send you a Letter when she comes back, so you can get your Books, uhhh... what was your name again?“

„Mash, Button Mash, but-“

„phhhfft, seriously? No offense but this isnt the best name for a Pony I can think of!“
I twitched at the reaction. Every time I tell somepony my name, every BUCKIN' time...

„I know, I know but what do you expect from somepony who gets his Cutie mark at the age of four because of Video-Games?“

„Sorry, I just didn't see that coming, Mash.“

„Hey, no Problem. I actually hear that reaction a lot more often than you think“ I actually beginning to like this Dragon, but didn't I wanted to ask something?

„Oh! Before I forget; Spike you said you wanted to send me a Letter, but wouldn't it take atleast a day before it arrives? Surely it must be faster to just come to my House.“

„Not at all! Because of Twilight's reputation as Princess Celestia's personal student, I can send letters to their destination in an instant through Magical Flames.“

„Okay then“, I said, „Magical Telegraph Flames? Wow, being Celestia's own Student must involve a lot of writing“, I assumed. „Well, I'm on my way back home then, Spike, just don't forget the Letter when Twilight comes back.“

„You can count on me!“, he said, while I was already trotting oustside back home.

Back home, my stomach raised his voiced since he endured 3 hours of nothingness already, forcing me into my Kitchen. Since I waited for Spike's Letter I thought it would take too long to cook some proper food, so I just made myself a Daisy Sandwich. After eating it, I laid down on my sofa, with my Ponystation falling into my field of view.
„No, Mash, you're awaiting Mail. It's more important to wait now!“, my inner voice told me,“it's better I put it away somewhere less showy“, so I put it in my Saddlebags hanging around my Sofa. Who knows how long Twilight might take to finish business in the Library later? Might as well play something during that time. When I packed it away, a Cloud of purple Mist suddenly appeared through my Window, only to manifest into a scroll a few moments later.
„Must be Spike's Letter“ I guessed, while enrolling the Paper

„Hey Mash,
Twilight's back in the Library, so you can come pick up your stuff.
Spike“

That was all it said, but it was enough for me. I levitated my saddlebags around my neck, left my house and went back to the Library. When I entered it though, Twilight was nowhere to be seen. Instead, I just asked into the room:

„Spike are you here somewhere? Where's Twilight? I got your Letter she would be here“, that said, Spike appeared before me.

„Oh hey, Twilight went downstairs into her Lab with Applejack and Rainbow. Said something about wanting to show them some new Experiment.“

„can you tell me where exactly her Lab is then?“

„Yeah, just go down those Stairs“ Spike pointed into their Direction „It's right at their end“

With this piece of Information, I made my way down into the pitchblack Cellar wondering why there were no candles or such along the way, but I quickly noticed to blue-ish Glow coming from below. While going downwards, I thought it would be wise to announce myself, just to not suddenly interrupt a scientific piece of work

„Ms.Sparkle, are you down there? I need to talk to you.“

There was no answer. „Maybe they're caught up with something“ I presumed. Then suddenly, I tripped. „Horseapples!“ was the last I could say, before falling the rest of the Stairway down head-first. Then, I heard somepony with a heavy accent speaking:

„What in tarnation? Twi, watch out behind ya'!“
Before I realized that meant I'm actually bumping into Twilight Sparkle herself in that moment, I tried to shout „lookout below!“ but it was too late. I crashed right into her, with my Saddlebags, which somehow came down with now releasing and deciding to fly a bit longer.

„Ouch! Dumb Stairs! Wait a sec, aren't you Ms. Sparkle? Oh I'm so sorry, I just tripped on that Stairway, I didn't mean to-“, I said, while trying to get myself and her up onto our hooves again.
*brrzt*, *brrzt*

„Uh, is this big, glowing thing meant to do that trembling?“

„Did you bring something along with you?“, Twilight asked, rather harsh and quick.

„Huh?“

„I asked if you brought something down, if yes, you could just have doomed us all!“ she yelled, the despair almost pouring out of herself.

„No, nothing, except my Saddlebags with-“ I started to confess, but then, Twilight's Experiment thought it had done nothing long enough, now slowly starting to increase it's illumancy. „Run, everypony!“, screamed Twilight, but it was too late. The whole Room got flooded with us right inside of the Light.

END CHAPTER 1

Author's Notes:
Well, folks here it is, my first attempt at Story-Writing itself, aswell as in a foreign Langauge, so expect some pretty basic Grammarfails in the Story. Also, I know how some Parts feel stretched or rushed, again blame my Inexperience. Nonetheless, I'm pretty open to critics, but please don't let it slip into flaming/hating. If I'm continuing depends on YOUR reaction, so please be welcome to leave a comment behind nontheless.
See you (hopefully) in Chapter 2!

Its pretty good, but there are far to many of the commas there. You might want to fix that, they're kind of annoying.

[Chewed Pencil]

Hee hee.... Button Mash.

All in all, it was a pretty good first attempt. Even if the quotations are a little wonky. I won't deny it, but the chapter itself runs pretty fast and I felt like I was skimming at best. Even though I read it normally. We all start somewhere and my own first attempt at writing years ago was a truly horrific peice. It even had to be locked away in the SCP facilities.

ZEE AWAAY!

I can see where it's going, and I won't thumb-down you, but you might want to find an editor-someone who can at least clean it up. I understand that English is not your primary language, but finding someone to help you make sure it makes sense in English will go a far way.

[Tygerburningbright]

I expect more and go to the proofreader group.

[HFLolli]

Changelog: edited some Parts here and there, but am still searching for Proofreader. Also expect Ch.2 somewhere around the weekend, I dont have much freetime if it isn't located between Friday and Monday

I KNEW SOMEONE WAS GOING TO WRITE A FINAL FANTASY FIC Thank you for doing that
