*Driving in a massive downpour while on a mountain road ain't what I thought it would be like...*, Simon shook his head, peering out from behind the rapidly moving wipers out into the rainy road.
"I don't know why I had volunteered to transport our newest R&D product to our new test labs, even though I knew the weather forecast had promised hard rains..." He took a glance to the bed of the company's pickup truck and sitting on it was the newest cutting edge super magnet prototype.
A bright flash illuminated the cabin of the pickup and Simon's head snapped back in attention to the road ahead.
"1... 2... 3... 4..." He whispered to himself, only stopping after a rumbling noise of the thunder reverberated through the chassis of the car. Sighing to himself, Simon settled in for the cruise.

After what felt like a couple of hours of considerable downpour and Simon's ears still ringing from the lighting strikes. The horizon finally seems to start clearing up. Simon smiled inwardly to himself that he was finally getting out of there after hard concentration on the driving for the past 30 minutes, but as soon as he finished that thought there was a bright flash and the loudest bang he could ever remember.

And now here he was. In some unknown forest god knows where surrounded by bits of what used to be his employers pickup truck and the smoking magnet prototype..."

This story centers around Simon's adventures in Equestria and how he soon finds himself in the middle of an ancient prophecy and new war between the kingdoms.
