> Your Human And You, Giant > by Shadowflameking > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I sighed looking at a picture of my grandfather, the guy who raised me, my real father had been a piece of shit who tried to abandon me in a zoo and had been sent to jail for doing so, along with having illegal drugs on him, the fucker had killed my mother with his drugs in her sleep, so my grandpa Willy was the one to raise me. I loved that guy, he had a 1966 bronco roadster that I loved, the car just looked so cool to me as a kid, he also had been a weapon collector, he had guns from the wild west, world war one, and world war two, all of em he had checked to make sure they still worked as well as they did the day they had come off the factory line. I set the photo back down onto the shelf I had picked it up from, and looked around the house. I had won the lotto a year back, about 5 million dollars, and unlike most I did not go on a crazy spending spree, I bought the house, a car, and payed some people to move the items from my grandfathers home to mine since he had past two years prior, it was a nice three story house. If you counted the attic where I kept Willy's weapon collection, and not counting the basement, where a safe stored my money, cause I simply did not trust a bank to hold this money, plus it was fingerprint unlocked and three passwords needed to unlock the damned thing, I am sure no thief can get in unless they blow the safe up. The house itself was a grayish blue color, with white trim and a blue roof, and a large garage, I had looked specifically for a garage that could hold two cars, cause I was leaving nothing behind that belong to my grandpa, his entire weapon collection, his car, anything that belonged to him I took with me to the new house, and used it to decorate it, hanging an old brown bess musket over a large flat screen TV as a decorative piece, however I knew that musket could fire. I walked to the fridge and grabbed a can of cherry coke, and cracked it open with a satisfying hiss as I got ready for my shift tonight, I worked as a night guard for a hospital nearby, to make sure no one just broke into rooms with medical equipment, or to just keep local troublemakers out of the building unless they needed medical aid, grabbing two cans of monster blue and a lunch pale I walked out and got into my 1990 bronco, it was painted black, and opening the garage I drove out as the doors automatically closed behind me, and drove off to work, at 10 pm. It was about 5 am by the time I was let off my shift, on my way back home I stopped for an egg mcmuffin Once I got back to my house I parked my car inside the garage and ate my sandwich, before taking a quick shower and turning on the TV, since tomorrow was my day off and I was still plenty awake due to the monster I had taken with me to work, I decided I was going to watch some TV, so I turned the news channel to see what the weather would be like, since it was the 10th of March the snow had begun to melt at last, for that I was happy cause I fuckin hated snow. "In other news today there has been strange electromagnetic activity around the Michigan Great Lakes, people are advised to avoid taking electronics near the Great Lakes until further notice, as the electromagnetic activity have caused small electronics such as cellphones to fry and no longer wor-" I changed the channel, not interested in the news any longer, I watched TV for another two hours, before I went to sleep, the energy drinks I had taken finally wearing off. About three hours later I woke up, if my clock was anything to go by so it was around 10 A., I got up and decided to get up and make myself some food, heading to the kitchen and grabbing a can of spam from the cabinet I sliced it into 5 slices and tossed it into a pan on the stove, letting the slices get nice and crispy, about 5 minutes per side, I set em onto a plate and fried up two eggs in the fat that was left in the pan, once those were done I enjoyed my meal with a can of coke. 15 minutes later I had finished my food, and stepped outside to grab the paper like I did every morning, only to see my street was gone, the road, everything, my driveway cut off perfectly into dirt, when just a few hours ago it connected to a fucking road, looking around I also noticed trees where really small.....to small, unless they where saplings, I took a look at the apple tree I had in my yard, it seemed to be unaffected and just as healthy as the day I had it planted in my yard, it was a pink lady apple tree, the best kind, to me at least. I looked around for a little while longer, not daring to leave my door, and I saw a small town, I shit you not like somethin you'd see in medieval times, cottages and even a somewhat modern looking town hall....and tiny....horses? walking and flying around, yes you heard me right FLYING, fucking pegasi, small unicorns, and normal ones....I am not drunk enough for this, walking back inside my home I locked the door and went to the attic, and pulled out a Luger from a glass case, and loaded it, this thing still worked, as did all the weapons my grandfather had collected, and he always kept ammo for em all, except for the musket. Walking back downstairs I sat on my couch, luger in my hand...why did I grab it you may ask? hell if I know, I don't want something hostile coming up to me and have nothing to defend myself with, seems this day was gonna get pretty damned weird > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ponyville shook as a sudden violent white flash and the sound of thunder times a thousand was heard and seen, the flash blinding ponies temporarily if they happened to be looking in the direction it came from. When able to finally see a house the size of canter mountain was plopped down right onto a large section of the Everfree forest, and with it a small Equis quake. Princess Celestia was notified rather quickly as she and Twilight, along with her friends where being flown to the house via Celestia's royal airship. Compared to the house, her royal airship was small and tiny, yet for the ponies it was the largest most grandest airship in the entire world, it was one hundred hooves long, and fifty hooves wide, painted white and purple with a gold trim. Celestia stood on the deck of the airship, analyzing the house with a look of pure confusion on her face, before she turns to Twilight who had been standing next to her. "Twilight, in all my years, I have never seen anything like this, do you have any idea what could have caused this?" She said. Twilight shook her head. "No Princess, but don't you worry, my friends and I will find out what caused this, and also what is causing the humans to get all panicky, right Fluttershy?" Twilight turn to Fluttershy, who only nodded. The only one who was not present, was Rarity, due to the fact she had been busy in Canterlot with a fashion show she was put in charge of by Fancy Pants. Applejack looked to the large, no GIANT apple tree in the yard of the giant house, she was speechless in awe at the large tree, she could not wait to see the being who had planted that, with trees that large sweet apple aces could feed all of Equestria in one season! Rainbow Dash was not authorized to fly close to the house, for fear it might upset whomever owned the house, much to her own disappointment. Celestia looked through the giant window, now that they where close enough, and what they saw shocked them all to the core, it was a human, male from the looks of its body shape, but, it was the size of an Ursa major, maybe a bit bigger than one, everypony just fell silent in shock. Three minutes later Celestia spoke up. "This....was something I did not expect to find...at all, if this human is indeed the owner of this home it would be best to try and not anger him, as we do not know what it can do, since it clearly is sapient due to the fact, it has clothes on, it looks worried, added to the fact that my scan indicated he is the only one inside the house, and the pictures of other humans it has on a shelf on the other side of the room." Fluttershy was wide eyed looking through the window, before she let out the loudest squee the cute little pegasus could. "Such a big cutie!" Everypony turned to her with a look of 'the fuck you just say girl?', but she was to busy trying to get a closer look at the large human, and she began talking to herself. "Hmm, light peach colored skin, black hair, icy blue eyes, a small beard, very lean and fit from what I can see from here, but I noticed some differences in this human compared to our humans." Fluttershy turned to Twilight and Celestia. Twilight tilted her head at Fluttershy before she spoke up, raising an eyebrow. "What differences do you mean Fluttershy?" She smiled. "Well, for one he seems to be more lean, more built for long distance running, his forehead and face are less blocky and more round in shape, his teeth are not large and flat, rather small with a good mix of sharp, and flat, added to the fact his arms and legs, if he was a normal sized human, looks like he'd be much taller than the humans we have here as pets Twilight, I'd say, aside from his size, he is a brand new species." Celestia smiled at Fluttershy. "Good to know I choose the perfect mare to help us with keeping the human calm, you seem to have a great gift with animals Fluttershy, would you mind trying to talk to him?" Fluttershy nodded with a smile. "I wouldn't mind, but how exactly would we get its attention?" She got her answer in the form of an impatient RD. "I got ya Flutters!" Rainbow Dash flew up to the window and rapidly kicked it with her hooves, not even rattling it, but seemingly making enough noise for the human to hear as he turned his head to the window, and his eyes widened before he raised some weird L shaped object and pointed it at the window, Fluttershy flied up and waved giving a big smile. Pinkie, had vanished however, nopony knew where she had gone, but it was normal for her to pop out of places in the blink of an eye, so nopony payed much mind to it. -----Human POV--------- I heard a small tapping sound on my window, looking over my eyes widened at what I saw, a small fucking zeppelin, with tiny flying horses tapping at my window like it was a boxing match, I raised my Luger ready to shoot the little fuckers if need be, as I had no idea what these damned things could do, only for a yellow one to wave at me...and smile. Okay...maybe they aren't here to harvest my organs or something, getting up I walked over to the window and opened it, it had no screen so the yellow one just flew in and perched itself on my hand like a small bird, it was about the size of a quarter, maybe a bit more. "Now, the hell are you lil fella?" I rubbed its head with a finger, causing it to purr softly and rub its head into my finger. Celestia, Rainbow, Twilight, and Applejack looked in shock as Fluttershy let the human pet her, before letting out a rumble of words that shook the air around them, the words where to deep for them to understand, Celestia along with the 40 royal guards she had brought in case the need to protect the mane 6 raised and she whispered to them before they all stood in formation and saluted before Princess Celestia flew up to the human and spoke. "As Princess Celestia, co ruler of Equestria I would love to say." She motioned to her pegasi guards who flew over and got into a small formation with her. "Welcome to Equestria!" This seemingly was a bad idea as the giant human's eyes widened and he dropped Fluttershy to cover his ears and let out a loud yell. "HOLY FUCK MY FUCKING EARS!" Dear FUCKING god all of those tiny horses yelling at the same time with their tiny high pitched voices, I think my ears may be bleeding UHG. Pulling one of my hands away from my ear it was indeed covered with some red liquid, not good. Fluttershy quickly caught herself and started flying on her own, her own safety forgotten as she flew over to the human to try and see what was wrong with him. "Oh you poor dear, are you alright?" When she saw the blood leaking from it's ears, she didn't have the reaction most thought she would as she turned and glared at Celestia with a look that actually made the immortal monarch gulp. I just tilted my head at the small yellow pegasus after my ears stopped ringing, and stuffed some tissue soaked in peroxide into them to clean em. I picked up the small yellow pegasus again, before I could smell something coming from my kitchen, the smell of a chocolate cake. "The hell?" I walked into my kitchen to see a small cotton candy colored pony standing proudly before I giant chocolate cake, how it knew chocolate was my favorite flavor was beyond me, don't even get me started on how something the size of a quarter could have BAKED this in the fist place and not be crushed by an egg. Twilight looked at Pinkie. "Pinkie...how the buck did you bake that giant cake?" Pinkie giggled and looked over to Twilight. "With a giant oven silly Twiggles!" Pinkie laughed as if it should have been easy to see how she baked it. I grabbed two plates, and placed a slice of cake onto each, before sliding one to the small horses, the white one drooled and dived head first into the cake, causing me to laugh at how silly that was, before the rest of them, aside from the yellow one, and the purple one, started to munch on the cake, then the purple ones small horn started to glow brightly causing me to back up, for all I knew that was radioactive, before a wave of purple colored energy shot out of her horn in a halo and their small squeaks suddenly turned to speech, English nonetheless. “Did it work? Can you understand me?” The purple horse asked, much to my own surprise. “Uhh….yeah...I can...the fuck?” I was also shocked to see the white horse had seemingly eaten most of the cake slice, since it was plump and round. “Ah! So you can! This spell should last as long as the caster alive, so you should be able to understand us, and if you do happen to live longer than me you, highly unlikely for a human however, it will have imprinted our language into your memory by then, so speaking it would be as easy for you as it was to speak your native language.” I tilted my head. “You have humans here? And they don’t live to long I take it?” I asked her. Twilight shook her head. "About, ten years, 13 is the oldest recorded human ever to live, how old are you?" Twilight tilted her head. I chuckled. "Well, I am 22, goin on 23 on the 27th, why?" Twilight's eyes widened. "Oh my...you could die at any moment then..." She sounded depressed, so I decided to explain something to her. "Oh no, where I am from, we can live up to 80, or a hundred years, in really rare cases, one hundred and twenty." All the ponies froze, before Fluttershy, who's name I learned soon, hugged my nose. "YAY!" I just stared at her before laughing. "Well, lets get onto names, I am Maxwell Cruz, who might you small fellas be?" Twilight spoke up, pointing at each pony as she did so. "The pink energetic one is Pinkie Pie, the orange one is Applejack, the blue one is Rainbow Dash, the yellow one is Fluttershy, I am Twilight sparkle, and the mare up to her flank in cake is Princess Celestia, co ruler of Equestria, the land you are currently in." I laughed realizing that Celestia had dived into the cake, and was still eating her way inside. "Does she do that often?" Twilight giggled. "More than you'd think she would honestly." "I get the idea my time in this land will be interestin, no damned idea how I got here, but I could give two shits about how and why, all I care about is now I got a new place to explore." It was at this point I heard a commotion outside my house, looking outside I saw a giant ass lizard with wings breathing fire into the small town. "Are dragons common around here? cause one is burnin your town, you guys stay here while I go get a rifle." I ran upstairs and into the attic, grabbing a M1 Garand, and some ammunition for it, before rushing back downstairs and out my door. "Hey fucker! the hell is wrong with you burnin down a town?!" I took aim at the dragon. The lime green dragon, about half my size, looked at me and tried to charge, big mistake, I fired the M1 5 times, 4 of the shots hit, two in a wing, one in the chest, and one in the head, the dragon flopped to the ground like a sac o rocks, meanwhile the ponies where just kinda staring in shock at me. After a few moments Twilight finally spoke up. "That looks like a larger more advanced version of a griffin musket...how do you have such a weapon?" Well crap, seems I have some explaining to do here then....this will take awhile explaining how exactly I have it and why said weapon was created. > Chapter 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was sitting on my couch again, the ponies sitting across from me on the other side of the couch while I held up the rifle as I spoke. "This is a M1 Garand rifle, its a semi automatic 30 caliber rifle, it was created during the second world war and has stayed very popular with hunters and for shooting contests." Celestia, whom had finally finished that cake slice on her own, despite it being bigger than herself, and had cleaned the cake off with magic, went wide eyed, at the words 'world war two', she spoke up. "World War Two? Your planet has had two WORLD wars?" I nodded. "Yes, the first world war started on July 28, 1914 and ended on November 11, 1918. the second world war started on September 1, 1939 and ended on September 2, 1945, in that time many advancements in weapons where made, this M1 Garand being a product of the second world war." The ponies where shocked into silence, war had only really happened during the beginning when Equestria was founded, and when Nightmare Moon had tried to take over the world, even then Nightmare never killed anypony, rather she'd brainwash them to worship her. Celestia spoke up. "The second 'world war' ended in 1945? What year is it for you now?" I chuckled. "The year is 2019, more than seventy years after the second world war, just cause its been so long don't mean other wars haven't happened however, like the war on terror, and things like that, this rifle is old but it has stayed popular due to how powerful and accurate it is." Twilight, along with the rest of her friends just looked mortified, the only one who didn't was Celestia, who spoke up again. "So wars are common enough where you are from that weapons technology advances at a fast rate?" I nodded. "Yeah, this rifle is very old compared to most modern rifles, and nowadays the military uses machine guns, such as the M16, which is slowly being replaced, but how come your so interested in that?" Celestia sat down. "Because griffins are becoming more and more hostile due to us not wanting to ship humans to them so they can just eat the poor things, humans here are pretty much animals compared to you, like a cat is to a pony." I paused for a minute, taking that in, before I shrugged. "Not the first time I've heard something weird, however this IS by far the weirdest thing I have ever had happen to me, or seen before...wonder why I ain't flippin the fuck out...eh, problems for later perhaps, but anyway my point is, I assume your goin to ask me for this rifle to make smaller copies for your ponies against the griffins then?" Celestia chuckled. "No need, I scanned it when we came back inside, all I have to do is copy the plans for it onto a piece of parchment and then it is as easy as making the parts and building the weapon, however I plan to place this kind of weapon on airships, not for ponies to just carry around for battle, swords shields and magic will be much better, and less violent." I shrugged, not giving two fucks why they wanted the design for the weapon, as its almost a century out of date compared to modern weapons. "Sure, I guess, that little airship you had reminded me of zeppelins of world war one, but I wanted to know if I would be able to explore? and possibly not have your little town go into a panic at seeing me?" Celestia nodded, before writing a letter, seemingly about me, and teleported it off to who knows where. "Mayor Mare will notify Ponyville within an hour as I have instructed her, however I'd stay here for today and just explore tomorrow, so to not cause panic and so everypony has time to accept their new neighbor. Just have Twilight notify me if you require anything." Celestia teleported back with everypony to her airship, leaving only Twilight there. Twilight payed me no mind, instantly going to a bookshelf I had filled to the brim with books, looking like she had died and went to her own personal heaven, I laughed at the idea of her prancing in a field of books and just sat down to watch her, she tried to read one of the books I had about rockets but was having a hard time turning the pages, so she, I shit you not, shrunk the book down to her size and CHIRPED happily while she read on. I shrugged after watching her for about two hours, and went into the kitchen to cook myself up somethin to eat, some hash browns on bread with a slice of spam and some ketchup, if you don't know by this point, I love that canned meat, best food in the world. After making my sandwich I headed back to the living room and just continued to watch Twilight read, shrink, and resize my books once she was done, she went through about half of the damned shelf, about 50 books, before she fell asleep mid page on a book about the history of the USA. I chuckled at that and set her onto a napkin, along with the book, before deciding to read myself, from the 'On The Run' series, loved those books, and other books like 'Hatchet', abit I didn't like the sequels to that one as the first story had ended perfectly, I read for a few more hours before realizing the sun was setting, and decided to grab a coke, and I continued till I was finished with the book, as I had been more than half way through the book when I started to read it again to pass the time, after headed into the kitchen yet again, I sat down with another sandwich, thinking of what I could do, as I was used to staying up late at night, and sleeping all day, or going on only 3 hours of sleep, I had nothing to do and it was maddening! least I thought it would be till my face decided to meet the table in a loving embrace. > Chapter 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I woke up in the morning to the sound of Twilight struggling to open my fridge, she was making a squeal sound like a kettle of boiling water, which was absolutely adorable. Walking over I opened it for her and gave her an apple slice, before laughing as she blushed beat red while she nibbled it. "I'm going to go explore the town, you can get out via the open window, its cracked open enough for you to go through it if you need or want to, but it will be closed if it rains, I'll come back and close it." I got no reply from Twilight, so I grabbed some pre cooked bacon out of a yellow box, threw it into the microwave and after 30 seconds of being nuked, grabbed it with a paper town and started eating the slices like a corn dog, and grabbed a cherry coke from my fridge, and made my way to the door of my house my Luger in my pocket, a makeshift holster pretty much. I had also noticed something weird, when I poured a cup of cola from the 2 liter I had in the fridge, the next day it would be full again, same for the milk, orange juice, and same for the food as well! I placed half a sandwich I didn't eat in the fridge yesterday, and when I opened it there it was, a complete sandwich again, I had also noticed my spam cans had been placed back into the pantry, full yet again, so pretty much I had unlimited food, as far as I could tell, so it was a good thing I tended to stalk up on items in the middle of the month, after walking outside, and locking my door out of habit, I took a look at the town I now lived by, and I gotta say, it was not small whatsoever, aside from the size of the buildings, it would be more like a small city than a town, if the houses where more than two or three stories tall. I walked over, it only took me twenty steps before I was at the edge of the town, and I sat down while ponies watched me and pulled a controller out of my pocket, and set down an RC helicopter, this was one of those fancy ones, it had a camera on the front and a screen on the controller so I could see everything it saw. It would also record everything it saw, so it pretty much was a battery powered flying camera. Clicking the on button for both devices I pressed a button on the controller and the helicopter started to fly rather quickly, while ponies just watched in horror and amazement as I made it fly over the town, recording everything it could see, and being careful to avoid the little pegasi flying around. However a bunch of small clouds where destroyed, this went on for about an hour before I got a chirp from the controller to let me know the helicopters battery was getting low, and it would auto rotate to land within three minutes or so, so I flew it back over to me and landed it, then turned it and the controller off before walking back to my house, careful to make sure I didn't step on any little ponies and went to the computer in the corner of my living room, and hooked the helicopter up to it via a USB cord, and uploaded everything from it into a video file on my computer. I looked over the footage, watching ponies stare in amazement at the toy, that to them would be one of the most advanced machines in the world, I laughed lightly at that, before I noticed something worrying, I zoomed in on a wall of posters I had seen, then flew off, I didn't take the time to read it as I was going read at a later time, like now for example, taking a look I saw posters for local bands and companies, but then I saw one that confused me, it looked like a red, black, and grey centaur, with a weird little beard, with a 'Tirek, Wanted for crimes against Equestria' in bold black text, and what I guess was a picture of 'Tirek' on it, taking a look at the time I decided that I had spent enough time on the computer, and that I would take a break and read for awhile. Now some may wonder, why I wasn't flipping my shit about being in a new world, that was because I didn't really care, it just gave me a reason not to pay taxes, or bills, or have to really fucking do anything that I had to do every day like a drone. Wake up while the sun sets, go to work, stare at a screen all night to make sure patients didn't leave unless cleared to do so, and then go home, eat something, then sleep again, wake up, repeat, except for the few days I didn't work, or was given time off, other than looking at my grandfathers collection of weapons and ammunition or making sure his old car didn't rust, I didn't actually have the time for things like a social life, or friends, outside of something like discord or twitter, so this new world would give me opportunities I never had the chance to even get before, like friends, and doing something more than just working every day 9PM to 6 AM. Looking around, I noticed Twilight was gone, I shrugged before I realized she took 2 of my books with her, I never gave her permission to do that, so I'd have to have a talk about that with her later on if she came back, or if I found her, for now I shrugged again and picked up a book called 'On The Run, Now You See Them, Now You Don't' it was one in a series, I loved this series as it was fun to read, and see how the two teens in the story fought against all odds to free their parents from prison, for a crime they didn't commit. After two hours of reading, and getting halfway through the book, the ground started to shake, I looked out my window and what I saw horrified me, the centaur I had seen on the little poster, this 'Tirek' destroying mountains and part of the town with these weird plasma blasts, or laser blasts, my house got hit once, but seemingly was immune to it, as it didn't even scratch the paint I had on my house, ponies had noticed this and flocked into my home, and within 15 minutes all of Ponyville was inside my house, even the few pet humans that had been in the town. They looked weird, they all kinda seemed to just stare up at me in fear, while the ponies where just happy to be safe, even including Twilight's friends, and a new one I hadn't met, she called herself Rarity, I watched Twilight flying and fighting Tirek, before it seemed to be where they where at an impasse, so I did something that even in twenty years I won't be able to tell you what motivated me, I went up to the attic and grabbed a Lewis Gun, once again one of my grandfathers favorites, loaded in a fresh disk, as that was the shape of the magazine that held the rounds this thing fired, and grabbed three more, strapped em to my chest, and walked outside loaded and ready to go, I saw him about to step on Twilight, before I took aim and shot him in the shoulder, and yelled. "HEY FUCKER! WHY NOT PICK ON SOMEONE YOUR OWN SIZE YA FAT BASTARD!?" Instantly that got his attention, as his head turned to me. "Who dares strike the new king of Equestria!? Lord Tirek!" I rolled my eyes and flipped him off, despite there being only a few humans here, that where mostly pets, he seemed to know what that was and tried to charge at me, so I just took aim again and kept shooting, like a moron in world war one, he just tried to charge at me as I unloaded round after round at him. He ended up just like some of the soldiers in the trenches of the first world war, on the ground covered in bullet holes and blood, most of his body torn into dog food. I reloaded for the two drum magazines I had, and didn't stop shooting till I had no ammo, even then I ran up to his now dead body, and bashed his head in with the but of the gun, causing it to explode like a rotten watermelon. After his head was destroyed, wisps of weird colored smoke started to fly from him like little plasma balls, most headed back to my house, while others just flew away, and before I could react to that, a weird fucking rainbow shot into the ground near my house, about 15 feet away from it, and a crystal.....castle....tree thing?... grew in its place, the ugliest thing I had ever seen to be honest, but I wasn't gonna judge, cause clearly it was a bit magical, ponies flocked from inside my house around it. After a few minutes of looking at the castle thing, they then around me and cheered, I was rather surprised, I expected screams and gasps of horror that I had killed something, seemingly they didn't give a fuck about me killing it, since it had tried to tear their town to bits, in the end the pink one threw a party, and yet again somehow made a cake the size of my head in under ten minutes, using my oven, and somehow dragged it out to the party being held in the mostly intact town, I will never fucking understand these little ponies, nor the little humans that seem to be....grouping around me like I'm some kinda ...god.....oh for fucks sake.
