Waking up slowly, I blinked in confusion at what I was seeing, the ceiling was a pure white; when did Twilight paint it? I was about to turn to ask her, when shock crossed over my face. She was not there, and this was not her bed, the sounds of cars and the chattering of people on their cell phones. I was...back home?! I jolted out of my bed, I was naked but didn't care as I quickly threw on some pants and ran toward the window, no, no, this couldn't be happening! Slowly falling from the wall toward the ground, I clutched at my head, how did I get here...was Twilight and the others alright, fuck, fuck, fuck! I slammed the wall beside me, for the first time in ages I felt at peace, and now I was back here, in this god forsaken world! I didn't even have proof if Ponyville was even real or not, was it even real...or a dream? I made my way toward the clock, seeing that it was just past lunch time, sighing I got dress and left, maybe some air would clear my mind.

Once I returned, I was feeling worst then what I already was feeling. Nothing had changed, people were still rude to each other, and death was seen everywhere on the news...nothing had changed... well...all but one thing. When I came back inside my home, I noticed a piece of paper on my bed, something I had not seen before, looking closer, I found that it was a scroll, wrapped in a marking that looked like...Celestia! Tearing it open I came to see the handwriting of Twilight, or should I say the 'horn writing' of Twilight, so it wasn't a dream, it was all real!

Brandon, if you are reading this then I am glad, when I woke up the next morning, I thought for a second that you had gone to work at the cupcake shop, but no one had seen you there since the day before. I got a little worried, even more when Pinkie Pie didn't see you at all like she always did. I and the rest of the girls went off to try and find you, but we found not even a piece of your hair. We went to Celestia and Luna; they said that maybe whatever brought you here in the first place, must have brought you back to your world. I was...so heart broken, here we at last become lovers and this happens!

_ Rainbow Dash misses you greatly, she even did what she did when you first met her, you know when she shot like a rocket and made a rainbow, I swear she flew faster then ever before to try and find you. She seems to drag herself around Ponyville, I don't even think she's been back home, staying around at Apple Jack's place until you return. Pinkie Pie still smiles, but I think she is forcing this smile, you should see her Brandon...she hasn't eaten even one cup cake, or even work on the party that was to be for you. Rarity hasn't even left her house, or even worked on her clothing, I swear, it was like she only made those extra clothes just to make you happy, I think even she had a crush on you, and now that you are gone..._

_ _

_ The CMC as you called them have tried everything they could to even try to go to your world, they tried to make cannon that would blast them to where you were, but we stopped them before they could try it out. Apple Jack misses talking to you at times, even if you don't do it a lot with her, she misses joking around with you, and the times you did help her with the apples. Fluttershy seems more to herself then before, barely speaking unless it is something she has to answer to._

_ You know how I feel...Brandon...please I hope that you can write back, this letter will return within the hour you write back, please...I want to see you once more!_

_ _

I felt my heart sink...I really infected all of there lives like that. I took a pen and a paper and started to write, I can't even tell you what I wrote because it hurt so much on what I wrote to them, but what I did tell them, was to never stop trying until I was home with them. Once done, I placed the letter on my table, sighing loudly as I closed my eyes and prayed to whatever god, known and unknown that they would get my letter back to them. I sat on the bed, looking at the piece of paper for who knew how long, and I think I dozed off for a moment, because when I opened my eyes, it was gone; as if it was not even there to begin with. I stood up once more; I hoped that this wasn't all just my mind playing tricks on me...truly...I really hoped that it wasn't.

The knocking of my door brought me out of my trance, who could've been knocking on my door, no one but a few of my online friends knew where I lived...and I doubt they wanted to come up here just to say 'hi'. Going to the door without thinking, and without looking into the peek hole, I unlocked the door and slowly opened the door. My half sleepy eyes shot open with both shock and fear, not him, anything but him!

Slowly backing away from the door, the one person I thought I would never see again held a smile as he slowly made his way in. I just backed away, his hair I once remembered being long and messy, was now short and slick back, blacker then my own black hair. His bread was trim down toward his chin, a scar over his cheek easily seen as his deep red eyes locked onto my own green eyes.

"HelloBrandon," I flinched at his rough voice as I was now inside my living room. "My, you have done well for yourself...haven't you son?"

"I am not your son," I muttered looking away from him as he only grinned that sneer look at me. "How did you even find me?"

"You should know by now," he answered sitting in my chair, acting like he owned the placed as I watched him with crossed arms. "I have many powerful friends." It was true, the only reason he never was charged was because he had friends in the law game that could...let say, make a charges disappear; or the witnesses.

"What do you want," I demanded as he smiled slightly.

"How about a drink?"

"How about no, leave now."

"Oh, so my boy has grown a backbone hrm?" he chuckled and took out a smoke as he lit it and blew a small smoke ring in my face as I held my composer at him; my eye twitching slightly. "Fine I'll leave, but I thought I come and tell you something."

"What could you possible tell me?" I asked him as he smiled and took another puff.

"You're mother is now dead."

It was like my world shattered, I swear I heard the sound of glass shattering once those words. My body tensed as my hands shook with rage; I knew he had something to do with it, I just knew it.

"The bitch wasn't doing what I told her," he spoke with a blank like face. "Why keep something when it's broken." My eye wiched in utter rage, while he was still laughing slightly to himself. "Hell, I got a new girl who does what I say when I want to, you might even being having another brother or sister soon." I was slowly backing away into the kitchen, since I knew this place like the back of my hand, my hand trialed up until I gripped the handle of one of the many knives I had. Slipping it slowly in my back pocket I made my way toward my 'father' as he still gloated. "And I want you back; since she's going to have my child I need someone to do my will until she is without that child."

"No..." I whispered softly as he gave me a glare.

"I own you boy!" he answered standing up. "When I say something, you will listen to me!"

"NO!" I screamed taking the knife out and slashing where he was standing.

The blade of the knife just missed him by an inch, stabbing into the seat behind him as I dragged it across before swinging like a mad man trying to get him. His strong hand gripped my wrist as he pushed me down to my knee and then kicked me, making me drop the knife as I fell onto the floor with a grunt. Getting back up, I huffed and glared with anger as he only threw the knife away.

"Seems I'll have to knock the senses into you brat!" he charged at me as I lunged, tackling him hard onto the ground as I kneeled over his body and started to punch him with fist after fist. The older man grunted as my punch landed right on his chin, enough to send blood flowing from his mouth before he rolled and threw me off of him; bringing a arm to his mouth, he pushed the blood away as I stood up once more.

"I'm going to kill you!" I roared in half crazed, but as I ran toward him, about to swing another punch; I felt something be driven deep inside my chest. A gasp leaving my mouth as I slowly looked down to see the knife I was about to use to kill him; was now between my ribcage. Coughing I saw as blood splattered over his shirt as I looked up, my body shaking from shock as he pulled it out quickly, a large grin on his face, before I saw the flash of a white light enter my vision, and then, as I felt pain force its way up into my brain, I blacked out.

"Brandon..." I twitched my fingers at the sound of my voice. "Brandon...open your eyes." A groan escaped my lips as I tried to listen to the voice. The light that hit my right eye making me slightly blind for the moment, and when my vision came back, staring down at me; was Celestia! I was so overjoyed at seeing the princess that would bring the sun up with her magic, I was about to smile and greet her, when I noticed the grim look on her face. When my hand went to my left eye to rub the sleep out of it, I noticed that something was covering it. Trying to stand up, I yelped in pain and almost fell off the bed I was using as I clutched at my chest, which was covered in a thick cloth, some blood seen on it, the same spot where my father stabbed me. "EasyBrandon," she spoke to me in a soft voice. "You have been though a lot in the last couple of days...you must rest." Looking around, I almost cried when I found myself in Twilight's room, my lovers room; my room. Looking to the side of the room, I found a mirror just standing there, taking the blanket off of me and making my way slowly over, I saw myself, looking back. My face pale as if I was scared stiff, my hair combed down because of the sweat I was bringing out of my body. I was shirtless since I could see the wound on my chest, or whatever was covering it. Ripping the cloth off, I found the wound slowly healing, a very thin pink line of the healing skin, but what caught my eye...was what was covering my left eye. With shaking hands, I brought my fingers to the eye patch, slowly lifting it, and throwing it to the table as I gazed back to see what hap happen to me.

Three thin cuts were seen over my eyebrow, going down my eyelid and below my eye. Closing my left eye I could see that they each made a very clean cut, opening it once more, seeing that the once green eye; was now red. My hand clutched into a fist as I looked down, Celestia coming up behind me and placing a hoof on my shoulder.

"I had to heal your chest more then your eye young one," she told me softly. "If I healed your eye...your wound on the chest might have later killed you."

"Twilight..." I whispered looking around. "Where is..."

"She and the others are at your work place," the Princess told me. "I asked her to give up her room for you to rest, you've been back for only a day, and have been sleeping that whole time." A day...that would mean that today...was my birthday. "Brandon...there is something else I need to tell you, something that has to be said now." I turned slowly, I saw her flich somewhat, no doubt my new scar sending shivers down her body as I glazed up at her. "It is about...how you came here in the first place."

"You know of how and who brought me here?" I asked in slight confusion as I brought my hand up to my eye, tracing the scar slowly as she nodded her head.

"Yes...it was I...and my sister Luna."

I couldn't say anything as she told me that it was her and her sister that sent me here for the first time, looking away for a moment, my eyes grew wide as I knew who it was that sent me back to my home world.

"Then...it was you...you sent me back?!"

"It was a test..."

"What sort of test?!" I was so enraged I didn't care that she was rotary at the moment. "To see if I could live after my father tried to kill me?!"

"We wanted to see if you would like to stay in your own worldBrandon..." I scoffed and looked away from her, my arms crossed as my back was to her. "I see now, that it was a bad choice of action for us to send you back, with what happened to you and all...but you still have a choice to go back, we can make sure your father never finds you ever again; and we can make sure that letters can be sent back and froth between you and your friends."

"Are you kidding me?!" I screamed again. "My mother is dead because of my father, he tried to kill me like he killed her, I have nothing...NOTHIING!" I heard the door slam open as two white Pegasus flew up and landed in front of their princess, wearing gold armour and helm, they stood on guard before Celestia waved them off. Once they were gone, I was still fuming, and she did not say anything until I stopped. "I felt at peace here, I felt loved for the first time in years...and you took that from me...you took me away from the pony I loved!"

"I understand that now," she answered looking away. "When I got that letter from Twilight, about how you two have become lovers, I almost didn't want to send you back. But we knew we had to, just to see; but when we saw you in on the floor when we came to check up on you, we knew we've made a grave mistake."

"You think?" I snorted at her while looking to the stairs. "Why are you bringing humans here anyway? I think I should have that much." The large winged Unicorn nodded as she turned toward the bed, offering me a seat as I took it, slowly sitting down as I crossed my arms, waiting for her to speak.

"As you know," she spoke while standing before me. "Humans use to live among us thousands of years ago, we lived in peace with them, and they lived in peace with us. Though, one dark day, something happened." She sighed and closed her eyes. "A human believed that he was far above the ponies of this war, and wished to take what he thought was theirs. Many humans didn't think of this, and sided with us as we called the Dogma War, for that was what the age was called. These humans who sided with us later were killed, or died off." She stood watching me still with unblinking eyes. "After the war, the humans who were left, myself and my sister sent them to the world you call home now, and ever since then; not a single human had step foot here, until now."

"So why bring me here?" I asked uncrossing my arms as I listened to her story.

"We wanted to make the world once more whole once more, but we couldn't just bring every human from your world here. So what we did was look within your world for humans who had a open mind, like you have with Twilight." I nodded slightly. "I'm sorry for not telling you...but you must swear never to tell the others."

"I will not say anything," I saw her smile. "If you send any other humans here, within the week you are about to send them back, I wish to speak with them to see if they truly want to return home." I saw her look at me, as if thinking about it for a moment before smiling and nodded her head softly.

"As you wish."
