Curtis eventully got to Ponyville. He had been walking for about three days with his ipod on charge and on loop. When he got to the center of ponyville, Curtis looked for the famous ponyville libary. He would start looking for the other explorers there
Allen nodded, "Whatever, doesn't matter." Allen turned his attention back to the rest of the group, "Look, I know I haven't been entirely truthful with you here, but that was out of necessity. And my research dwelves into more than just teleportation. I will admit this," Allen took a deep breath, "But none of you can't tell anyone. The real reason you can't tell anyone of any of this is because, I acually work for the Pentagon. I devolp all sorts of technology for America's special units that almost no one but the people involved know of. I could get in a lot of trouble for this, but one thing that is very interesting I have found, on the inside, we all have a little unicorn, or pegasi, or earth pony inside us. Mine happens to be the first one." Allen's hands suddenly were surrounded by a magical aura, "This is what Twilight was teaching, it's hard work and I can't do much more than basic levitation but it's still there. People who have pegasi in them tend to be the fastest, lightest, fittest. Earth 'Humans' as I guess you can say, range from your average person to the biggest body builders. It's all a manner of unlocking it."
That was certainly a plot twist that Shawn was not expecting, and he expressed his sentiments in the most articulate way he knew how: "I...wha...?" He blinked a few times, then pinched himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming. When he convinced himself that he was in fact awake, he posed a simple question: "How do we know what kind...of Human...we are?"
"Well for us, it's easy, as it will be our most common type of OC as our subconscious is connected to this world and the kind of human you are. Like Nic over here, he's a pegasus human. But for others, well they just find what's easiest for them, unicorn humans are the least common. A couple notable ones where Houdini and Albert Einstein, as unicorn humans also tend to be smarter." Allen explained.
Kyle looked at Allen in shock. "Wait... So... Everyone is secretly a bit like a pony? Is that what you are telling us?" He looked around. Half excited.
Allen nodded, "And if Twilight's and I's hypothesis is correct, all it would take is breaking open that pony inside and WHAM you're a pony."
Kyle looked at Allen, a smile on his face. "omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomg!" You could tell he was happy. Him as a pony... But that brought a question... "How will we "Break" open the pony inside us, and how will we know?"
"Easy, magic. I guess I'm still lying to you." Allen said with a smirk on his face and a chuckle in his voice, "Man, I really woudn't be the Element of Honesty would I? You see, I do know a spell that could help, but it's exprimental soooo..." Allen's hands started glowing bright and he touched his head. He seemed to instantly start glowing like the sun, and was in obvious pain, But no noise escaped him. A bright flash of light, and the room was filled with smoke, after it cleared, a brown unicorn was getting to its feet, streching itself out and popping its neck. "Well? Did it work?" it asked.
"It's complicated, let's just say that I pretty much had to purge the human from my body. Basically, I am not even close to being Homo Sapien anymore, and there is no going back for me." Allen dug in the clothes that he had been wearing as a human that now lay in a misheveled pile and drew out a silver cylinder with a red button on top with his mouth. He tossed it to land in the middle of the group, "That will get you back to Earth. Once there, you must go thorough my lab, it's all of yours now, the Master Password is 09po98oi7uMLP4EVR, it will allow you to read all my research notes, access everything. And don't worry, you can come back once a week, I have already made the arrangements to have this house under me." he then dug back through his pocket and dug out several more things, "These will all give you information on absoulely everything on my project for this. Now, you must go!" Allen hit the red button on the silver cylinder and a bunch of little antennas and other implements popped out, a flash, and every human that had been brought to Equestria was sent back to the lab.
Kyle was trying to take in what exactly just happened. They went to Equestria, their guide turned into a pony. And now they have to look after his stuff and can visit once a week? "What was the password again, wasn't it something like09po98oi7 something..."
Back in Equestria, Allen plopped down on a couch sighing, "I'm risking a lot on this plan." he herd some scruff long from behind him, "Tyro the fox correct?" the scarlet fox froze in place, "Tell nopony, or thing about what happened here." All he did was nod and bolted out, leaving Allen alone. He looked at himself, "Maybe I can change how I look." he said to himself. His horn glew and when he looked back down, he was a light blue, "Huh, just like Winter." he said to himself, "Whelp, time to explore."
"okay, so we went to equestria just to be sent back like 3 hours later. That's annoying. Anyway I wander what my inner pony is". Jake was bored and was trying to figure out what his owner pony was, he was about to give up until a small light blue aura surrounded his hand for only 20 seconds.
Tyro picks himself up for what was now the third time today. He hoped he wasn't going to be making a habit of that or being thrown around the time-space continuum. "Did he really expect us to remember a password that complex with only ten seconds to catch it?" He said, dusting off his jeans as he moves towards the only computers in the room. "Maybe he wrote it down. No human being should be able to remember any password that long." He moves to a note-board on the wall, moving from pinned piece of paper to the next one. He looks back at the rest of the group. "Not gonna...gonna..." His eye-sight is transfixed by Jake's glowing hand. "Aaaand so it begins...."
Jake approached the computer and turned towards the others. "maybe you can't remember it but I can, photographic memory you see". He turned towards the computer and typed the password in. "09po98oi7uMLP4EVR, done".
"Yeh little Deus Ex Machinima ..." Everything else is lost to a quiet mumbling as Tyro moves on from Jake to the computer. "Voice activation. Sweet. Err...." He did wonder what was wrong with a simple keyboard. After all, voice systems tend to treat your command as a vague suggestion and do whatever the hell it likes. Still, nothing else to work with. "Err..Computer, find files related to Human to Pony transformation." Tyro attempts, unable to shake Star Trek flashbacks. He joins the group at the screen, hoping for something to appear.
