> Unexpected Events > by Abnormally > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1 I woke up in a small dark room, no doors or windows, nothing. It was just an old stone room with a small light that only covered a small distance in the middle; I sat up and looked around. "Where the hell am I? I said to myself, I looked around to see if there was an exit. But nothing, the room was only about 10 meters wide. I heard a whisper in the corner; I couldn't quite make it out what or who said. "Hello?" I replied, "Is anyone there?” I was getting a little freaked out. "Come closer" said a quiet but dark voice; I slowly walked over to where the whisper came from. "Is anyone the-" I was suddenly grabbed by the legs with bloodstained arms, I yelled and tried to fight back, but it was no use, I felt myself being dragged into the dark corner of the cold room until everything went quiet. I flung up in my bed sweating buckets, "What the hell, was it a dream? Thank God," I fell back into my soft fluffy pillow in relief. "I shouldn't watch any more horrors before I go to bed." I looked at the time, it was 11:37. I got up and shoved some clothes on from my wardrobe, I wore my usual dark blue jeans and a white t-shirt, I also put on a thin gray jacket to keep a little warmer since it was February, plus it was also raining outside. "Ugh, rain." I said in disappointment, I walked downstairs to see my mum making me a cheese toasty, my favorite. I walked into the living room to see my dad watching TV whilst eating toast. "Morning" he said in a sleepy tone, I could tell he woke up not so long ago because of his bedhead. "G'day mate." I said in an Australian accent." He chuckled "I guess you won’t be going out much today since it’s pouring down, not that you go out anyway." He said jokingly since I was a bit of a geek. Afterwards I went to the kitchen to eat my cheese toasty that my mum had made for me, it was the best cheese toasty I've ever had, It was filled with Red Leicester cheese, the best. Afterwards I went upstairs to play some games on my new gaming computer that cost around £1000. I normally play Valve games like Team Fortress 2, Left 4 dead, and sometimes Counter Strike. After hours of playing my mum called me from downstairs, "Marcus, take the dog out!" She shouted really loud since I had headphones on, "Are you crazy? It’s a storm out there" I replied. "If you don’t take the dog out you will be the one cleaning the crap off the carpet" well she was right there, I don’t really want to be the one to clean up dog shit "Grrr, fine." I grabbed my black waterproof jacket and ran downstairs, "Come on Jack" I said to my dog as I put him on the leash and walked out the door. It was fully dark and very wet and windy; I decided to walk Jack around the park since it was only 2 minutes away from my house. As we entered the park the wind suddenly got much stronger, it got to the point which it made me fall flat on my face into the concrete, "Oww, shit" I said in pain, I look up and saw Jack running away from me with the leash caught around his legs, "Jack! Come back." I shouted but he ran off into the rain, Just then I was suddenly being pulled against the wet and dirty ground, "What the hell!?" I looked over my shoulder to see a blinding light and that I was getting dragged towards it, I tried to hang on to something for dear life. It was no use, before I could scream for help I disappeared into the light. Then it was just an endless dark void. 'Birds... fucking bird, birds? wait a second' I slowly opened my eyes and shielded the blinding sun beaming down on me, "Ugh..." I groaned, "Wha- What happened, where am I?" I looked around to see I was in dark woods next to a tree. “Well,” I deadpanned “Could be worse?” 'Hmm, what to do in a situation like this… Ahah! My phone is still here’, I reached in my pocket and got the phone out, I tried and tried again to turn the phone on but nothing, it wouldn’t turn on. ‘Okay let’s get the battery out and check if it’s… Got...Water… Inside… well water yet again ruins my stuff’ I thought as I watched the water drip from my phone, “two hundred pounds down the drain” I sighed and tossed the phone backwards not caring anymore. “Ow, that hurt!” I heard from behind the tree, “Ow, that hurt?” I repeated, ‘someone’s nearby they could help me find the way home! Oh apologise for tossing a phone at them of course.’ I shuffled over to a nearby bush that was near the source of the sound, I slowly opened the bush apart to get a look at who I hit with the phone, that’s went my heart stopped and my breathing increased, Right in front of me was a bright yellow Pegasus pony examining my broken phone, “Holy shit,” I said under my breath, “A talking horse!” I said that last bit too loud because she turned her head and look right at me peering through the bush with its big blue eyes, 'Oh no..' DUN DUN DUN… Well that’s the first chapter guys, I have to say this was fun to write, also this is my very first fan fiction so please give me tips and ideas on how I can improve the quality of the story, this is a little short I must say and not very detailed, I’ll try to put more effort in next chapter. > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unexpected Events Chapter 2 I sat there and stared for a while, since the weird yellow horse did the same. ‘Well this is quite the pickle, I’m going to slowly ba-‘“AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!” the pony let of a loud terrified scream and flew off, with a rabbit on its back? ‘Well that sure was…strange’ I sat there for a second, I didn’t know how to react to all this, you’re walking your dog in the rain when all of a sudden a massive bright light engulfs you; wake up in a dark and slightly disturbing forest, hear a noise and turns out to be a yellow talking Pegasus? “What’s next; Dragons, griffins, and unicorns... Nah that’s just silly they don’t exist right... Right?” I got up and started to walk around for a while, I didn’t really know where I was going, or how I can get out of here, there’s a tree in every direction I look and barely enough sunlight to see, except a few patches of sunlight shining its way through. The ground was very soggy where I was sat, my butt was all wet now, “Oh water, how I hate you…” I grumbled. ‘Hmm,’ I thought ‘that little horse flew west, so it must be going back home, it surely wouldn’t live in these conditions, not even my dog would, wait a tick…’ “Oh crap jack, I forgot about him, I sure hope he found his way home… home.’ I didn’t know how to get home, I don’t even know where I am; I could feel a tear coming on. After a few minutes of walking west I started to see a clearing, “Finally, I hate being in the dark.” It was one of my worst fears, ‘Darkness’ it haunted me, I never knew what could be lurking in the darkness, but one thing for sure it wasn’t something nice. After walking to the clearing I saw a small little cottage, it had small windows around it and look like a fat tree since the roof was covered in leaves and the walls made from wood. I made my way over to the cottage and stopped and look at the back window. ‘Wait a second,’ he pondered ‘That’s the little rabbit who was riding on that small horse!’ I was shocked, this pony was intelligent? I would have guessed that at the start since it could talk. But something else caught my eye, “Did… did that rabbit just flip me off?” Fluttershy’s POV 3rd person ‘Oh my, what was that thing,’ she thought ‘I’ve never seen anything like that, it looked so weird, I thought it was going to attack me!’ She was worried sick, this creature could escape the Everfree forest and attack her friends as well as other ponies; she flew fast as she could to Twilights house, “I hope twilight can figure out what this creature is, I’ve never seen anything like it!” After 5 minutes of flying she landed on the ground, galloped to Twilight’s door and gently knocked 3 times. ‘Knock knock knock’ “Coming!” She heard a voice inside. The door opened slowly to see a small purple dragon looking at her with worry, “Fluttershy, what’s wrong? Is one of your animals badly hurt again?” “No it’s not that Spike, is Twilight here? It’s an emergency!” Having heard what Fluttershy said Spike quickly started to panic “Oh no, is somepony hurt? Twilight get down here quick, it’s an emergency!” Fluttershy saw her friend looking quite annoyed at Spike while she was walking to the door “What now Spike I’m busy writing a report for Princess Cel- Oh, Hello Fluttershy; what seems to be the problem?” Twilight asked in concern, “I found this really weird creature In the Everfree forest whilst I was picking berries and it popped its head out from a bush and starred at me with its s-scary eyes.” Fluttershy squeaked “Hmm… maybe we could track this creature down and capture it for more information; you said you’ve never seen this species before, right?” Fluttershy nodded slowly,” Twilight replied with a large smile, “A new species, I could learn so much about it!” Twilight known Fluttershy knew about every species in Equestria, even every species of dragon. Fluttershy was still worried, “But Twilight, what if this creature is dangerous, it could hurt everypony if it comes to Ponyville, or worse!” Fluttershy started to panic again, “Don’t worry Fluttershy; we’ll get the rest of the gang together and capture this beast!” Twilight was determined, But she just wanted to learn about the new species more than anything. “Oh thank you Twilight,” Fluttershy said with glee “it’s a good thing Angel Bunny is safe and sound at home!” Afterwards Twilight and Fluttershy went out to get the rest of her friends. “Well,” said Spike, Slightly disappointed, still standing at the doorway, “At least I can get some sleep while Twilight is on another crazy adventure of hers.” With saying that he quickly closed the door and locked it. Marcus POV I’ve changed to 3rd person from now on Marcus was walking around the cottage inspecting it; he was looking inside the house of presumably, the little yellow horse. Well… that was until the little bast- I mean Rabbit, smashed its foot off the window, and made Marcus jump like crazy, “What’s your problem you little twat!” Marcus shouted in rage, the rabbit made a sort of shooing motion at Marcus, “You want me to leave?” asked Marcus, still annoyed by the rabbits rude attitude, It nodded furiously at him. “Fine… But hear me out; when I get my hands on you you’ll be sorry!” Marcus implied, the rabbit just stuck its tongue out and hopped away. He decided to go back to the forests clearing and sit down for a while; he’s been through a lot today, entering a different world through a blinding light, ponies that could talk, he heard it talk English, but how? This is a completely different world as far as he knows; maybe it’s a different universe or dimension? Anyway he was tired, all this crazy stuff happening was making him drowsy, so he rested his head against the tree and fell to a silent sleep. I was going to make this longer but I was kind of tired, sorry guys… > Chapter 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marcus woke a few hours later, still realising he’s in a strange colourful world filled with possibly talking equines. “Ugh, how long have I been out?” The sun was setting over a grassy hill, with snow covered mountains behind, “Oh shit I’ve been out that long? Damn gotta find shelter and these woods aren’t an exception, there kinda creepy at night.” Marcus got up and started to walk to the humble village known as ‘PonyVille’. Mane 6 POV And at the same time 6 friends were walking to the Everfree forest. “So darling, any reason on why you intend to bring us all out here on this dreadful night?” Said a white unicorn with curly indigo hair, “Fluttershy said she saw a strange creature that she’s never seen in her life, I’ve looked through every book in the library about what Fluttershy described and never found a single book or document on this being. So I decided to go look for it in the Everfree and see if I can catch it, so I brought you all along so you can help me, and also since I don’t know if it’s dangerous or not.” “Don’t worry, if this beast tries to hurt one of you, it’s gonna have to go through me first!” said a Pegasus pony with a rainbow mane. “Yeah, and if it’s friendly, we should totally throw a super duper welcome to PonyVille new species party for it! We could play games like pin the tail on the pony, dance to music, drink punch an-“The very hyperactive pink pony was quickly silenced by an orange hoof going over her mouth, “Easy there partner, we need ta’ find this thing first before thrown it ‘a party.” The orange mare turned to her friend and asked “So Twilight, ya’ think well find this thing or what? I’m gettin pretty tired walking about; I’ve been buckin the rest of the apples since winters comin soon.” “Don’t worry Applejack I’m sure we’ll find it even-“Twilight stopped dead in her tracks, and stared at a tall moving object, “…what the hay is that that!?” Marcus POV Marcus was walking near the outskirts of PonyVille trying to find a decent place to rest. Well… that was until a rainbow blur knocked him out cold. 1 Hour later ‘Ugh…’ Marcus groaned in his mind, ‘What the hell hit me?’ “Ya have any idea what this thing here is Twilight?” ‘Oh god, whoever or whatever said that is right over me.’ “I’m not sure Applejack, I’ve never seen an animal like this, it’s amazing!” ‘I think they’ve circled round me’ “I… It’s… really tall.” ‘Wait a second, I recognise that voice!’ “Look at the clothes it’s wearing, there simply dreadful; this creature surely doesn’t have a good sense in fashion!” ‘Oh gee, thanks…’ “It looks really funny, like a hairless monkey!” ‘…’ “It’s really ugly; somepony should put a bag over its head before it breaks all the mirrors.” ‘You cheeky little GRRRR-‘ “I AM NOT UGLY!” I shouted out in complete rage, which was the worst idea that I have ever done. I’ve just realised I’m laid on the floor and have a bunch of technicoloured horses staring at me in shock, ‘Oh bugger’ “Sweet Celestia! That think just talked!” said a blue Pegasus hovering right above me, “What the fuck is going on!” I shouted, completely scared at this point, I saw the white one faint a little overdramatically on the floor. I shot to my feet and tried to dive out a window, but I suddenly stopped while in mid-air, ‘What kind sorcery is this?’ I was lifted in the air above the weird horse like creatures, and noticed something on the purple one’s head glowing, ‘Jesus Christ a unicorn!’ That thing is lifting me. “Ah let me go you stupid horse!” I then noticed a long piece of rope coming towards me, ‘OH HELL NO!’ I struggled but it was no use, my arms and legs where being tied up by the floating rope, “Let me goooOOOOOWWWW!!” The rope was really tight around my arms and legs, I thought they were going to fall off, suddenly the weird glowing aura disappeared around me, ‘Oh shi-' I have too much school work to write long chapters, sorry but if I have more time, I’ll make sure to write longer chapters in the future, meanwhile enjoy this small chapter! > Chapter 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Everypony was now silent; looking at the strange creature that moments ago,was struggling and trying to escape, and somehow speaks Equestrian. It was nothing like Twilight had ever seen, it had quite a long mane, it wore bland clothing which she assumed was because of its lack of fur around its body, another thing about this creature; it was standing upright when it was trying to escape, its obviously bipedal, which means it can stand around 6 feet tall. Twilight must of read every book in the library, and not one of them describes or pictures what this thing is, or even how it got here. Twilight looked up at her friends; sharing the same confused look as she was. Rainbow dash flew over to the unconscious creature and lightly tapped at its limb. "I think it's knocked out; I didn't think ya' had it in you Twilight, you showed that monster whos boss!" said Rainbow dash,finally breaking the tension, "Well I'm just glad this here thing isn't gonna' harm anypony for now, good job ya tied it up." Applejack went over to the rope and made sure they were tight, "All right everypony," said Twilight, while she levitated the ink pen and paper, "I'm going to write a letter to the Princess about this, Applejack and Rainbow, you stay here and watch this thing, I'm going to get Spike." She then trotted up stairs to find a dragon hiding under Twilight's covers. "Spike?", Twilight nudged the covers with the baby dragon inside, "Is the monster gone yet?" said a muffled voice, "Spike, we caught the monster already." said Twilight as she ripped the covers of her bed to reveal the baby dragon, with a still scared expression, "Calm down spike, we tied up the creature so it can't escape, I need you to write and send a letter to Princess Celestia, think you can do that for me?", said Twilight with a serious expression, "Alright Twilight." Spike jumped off of the bed and took the paper and pen from Twilight. Dear Princess Celestia, I'm writing to you this evening to inform you off a new creature me and my friends have discovered on the outskirts of Ponyville, I do not know what this creature is or where it came from. I have also discovered it's sapient, and resembles an ape, minus the fur and other features, It is best if you look for yourself and decide what to do with it. Your faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle Marcus was starting to stir, his eyelids flickering open slowly while the light of the room blinds him momentarily, his mouth feels dry from the lack off food and water through the past day, but quickly waves it off the moment he spots the weird horses again. "Uh no..." He murmured in pain, "Hey RD, I think it's waking up!" he heard a voice to the side of him, it was an orange coated pony with a blonde mane, wearing what looks like a cowboy hat, also that it had a expression of anger and worry, weird mix but he knew it was a bad sign. "Alright you dirty ape," The multicolored Pegasus slammed its hooves on Marcus's chest, "what are you doing going around the Town scaring ponies and trying to attack my friends!" Screamed the horse just inches away from Marcus's face, "Can't...Breath!" Whined Marcus as he pleaded for oxygen, "Rainbow dear, I think you shou-", "You think you can get away with this, just wait until the Princess gets here!" Interrupted Rainbow dash, "Umm... Rainbow dash," Quietly asked Fluttershy, "its face is going a little too red, I think it can't bre-" "If you think you can get away with stuff while I'm around, you got another thing coming!" Yet again interrupted Rainbow dash, "His face looks like is gonna pop like a balloon!" Pinkie Pie said while pointing at his face. "What?" Asked a confused Rainbow dash as she looked at the face of Marcus, "Oh whoops..." Rainbow dash flew off him and joined her friends. Instantly, Marcus took a huge breath of air that he pleaded for and started coughing violently afterwards, "Whats all this noise?" Twilight asked as she trotted into the room, she looked at Marcus who was still trying to breath normally, "Oh no it's already awake?, Celestia sent me a letter and told me this creature is dangerous and that we should say away from it." Answered a scared Twilight, everypony then walked a few steps back from the creature and stared at it from a distance. Marcus wasn't having the best time of his life, he'd just been transported through a portal to some freaky dimension, full of magical talking horses, that attacked him, threatened him, and wouldn't let him breath. And now he was in the middle of a room, with multicolored horses staring at him with weary eyes. Then suddenly, the front door slammed open, revealing a 7 foot white horse, with golden plates around its hooves and neck, a massive horn on its head, huge wings at the side of it, and colorful swaying mane. The massive horse then looked down on the tied up confused and scared human, and shot an angry glare that said 'Your going to die a horrible excruciating death'. One word was going through Marcus's mind at this moment, Bugger. I'm sorry I didn't update in so long, I kinda forgot about this. I'll do more chapters soon. > Chapter 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Stay away from the human, Twilight Sparkle," Celestia shouted, "this creature is very dangerous and must be dealt with force." Twilight and her friends started backing away from Marcus as soon as she described the creature on the floor, or human dangerous. "Hey, I'm not dangerous!" Protested the human, "You're the freaks who are dangerous." Celestia didn't like this at all, not only is the deadly creature in her land, it called her ponies freaks. "Enough, you violent abomination, how dare you call my subjects freaks, and dare to show yourself in my land!" Celestia then charged up a spell, giving out a bright glow. Twilight then saw Celestia shoot her beam of magic at the human, it engulfed it in a white glow then suddenly vanished, with sparks left floating around from the spell. "W-where did it go?" Stuttered Twilight, "I have transported the human to the underground Canterlot prison chambers, the human can not harm or break out, I have guards that use magic shields around the cell, and patrol 24 hours a day, it cannot harm you anymore." Answered Celestia, Twilight gave a sign of relief, then thought why Celestia thought this human creature was dangerous. "Umm, Princess Celestia, what is a human and why is it dangerous?" Twilight asked, she had never seen this creature before but Celestia somehow had. "Twilight, I've tried to keep a dark secret from you, and I am ashamed for not telling you sooner," Celestia lowered her head in shame and walked beside Twilight, "I have never told you what happened to my mother and father, or even discussed my past relatives." Twilight had asked Celestia about her family before, but Celestia had never said anything about it, she normally said things like, 'another time' or just walked off with a goodbye. I was curious at first but decided not to ask anymore questions. "No princess, you haven't told me, but what does this have to do with the human?" twilight asked. Celestia sighed and walked over to the rest of Twilight's speechless friends, "I'm sorry my little ponies, but I have to speak to Twilight privately." They all nodded and bowed for their princess, before walking out of the door. Celestia then walked back over to Twilight and sat down on her haunches, "What I'm about to tell you must be kept secret from everypony, including your friends; Do you understand?" Twilight nodded slowly. Many years ago lived another species called Humans, these humans were greedy and selfish beings, they cared only for themselves and their own kind, they destroyed many other villages outside of Equestria, slaughtering anything in their path. When we first encountered them, I was only a child, My mother, Queen Faust, and my father, King Terra, were the rulers of this land, long before I and my sister took the throne. They told us to hand over our kingdom or deadly force would be authorized. My mother and father refused, they didn't think that the humans could do much damage to the ponies or the kingdom. But after a few days, they came back with an army of thousands, and weapons of deadly destruction. Massive balls of fire were launched at our castle, and the ponies homes. Our guards tried to protect the citizens, but we were outnumbered, they slaughtered many ponies throughout different villages, not even the foals were spared. My mother and father told me and my sister to stay in our bedroom, they ran out out of the room to then fend off the humans, I was left with my crying sister shaking in my hooves. We heard a loud explosion that shook the castle walls, and light that shined through the cracks of the doors. I walked out of my room to see no more humans, I searched around the castle to find my parents, but they weren't found, not a trace was left of them or the humans. All that was left of Equestria was thousands of ponies dead; and many injured. That day I promised myself, that no human was to ever set foot in Equerstia again. A tear from Celestia dropped onto the wooden floor, she stood up and walked over to the door. She turned to a sobbing Twilight, "Time to keep that promise." Said Celestia darkly, and disappeared with a flash. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Marcus was yet again regaining consciousness, the rope was still tied to his arms and legs tightly, making sure he couldn't break free. "Damn," He mumbled, "Whats the problems with these ponies..." Marcus lifted his head to see that he was inside some sort of dungeon, laid on cold a cold wet floor made from stone, there was a small window at the other side of the cell, with very little light shining through it. A bright light appeared outside of his cell that he was being held in, to reveal the tall white pony who he had seen earlier. Only this time, with an even angrier look on it's face. "Oh no." Said a scared Marcus. It then unlocked his cell with what he presumed to be magic, and stormed up to Marcus lying on the floor. It slammed it's hoof next to his head, casing Marcus to jump, "What are you doing in my land human!" It screamed "I don't know what your taking about!" Replied Marcus, he had no idea why this pony hated him for doing nothing. "Don't play games with me human, you shouldn't even be here, my mother and father banished your kind many years ago." It circled Marcus once, then quickly moved its head near Marcus's face, "I'll ask you one more time," It whispered, "What are you doing in Equestria?" Marcus didn't say anything and continued to be quiet, "Hmm?" It awaited for an answer. "I don't know." Replied Marcus quietly, "Fine!" It replied, "I shall deal with you in the morning." It then walked out of the cell and slammed it shut, making Marcus Flinch. Marcus was left in a cold and dark cell, confused; With no one to help him. He started sobbing quietly. I kinda made this one sad, I hope you don't mind. > Chapter 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- If some of you are wondering why It takes so long to make chapters, its because I have lots of school work to do at the moment, plus I've recently been going out more with friends, and haven't had the time to make more chapters, I'll try release more in the future, but may not be very long. Around 1000 - 2000 words at most. Sorry.
