uh oh...

I brush my teeth, just like i normally do. ''Nothing to worry about today!'' I mumbled out with the toothbrush still in my mouth.

My twin, Edd, is not awake yet, but i'll wake him up as soon as i get my clothes on.

Edd and i are very different, except the fact that we both like My Little Pony, even though it ended years ago!

My favorite pony has always been Lightning Bolt, even though she is a background pony.

Edd on the other hand, he is more into the main six.

His favorite pony? He can't really decide, but he is leaning across the lines of Rainbow Dash.

Edd suddenly screamed ''ANNA?!'', i run in to his room, finding only a note and an open window.

I read it out loud, ''Look behind you.'' in a questionable way. As i turn around, i got scared. Really scared.

''Lightning Bolt!'' Noteworthy is running towards me.

''Huh?'' i answer, everything is blurry.

''Get out now!''...

''Anna? Hello? It's me Sophia!''

I see two blurry faces.

''And me Edd!''

''Huh?! Where am i? Where did you come from?!'' What are you doing brain?!

Edd facepalms, ''In our apartment with Sophia and me!''

''Give me a break!'' I groan out, while still gaining consciousness.

''Well this was an interesting start of our birthdays! Great! Just great!''

I just remembered!

It's our birthday today! Not just me and Edd, but also Sophia!

Brain, how could you forget? A simple birth date! May 1st.

I hate my brain.

Sophia was born, at the exact moment as me.

Edd however, was born a couple of minutes after me. Making me the oldest! (yay)

It is funny to celebrate our birthday with a friend!

I met Sophia in Highschool, we happened to be in the same class.

We quickly got to know each other! But i really got shocked, when i found out that she is a Pegasister just like me.

She is very good at making art and such! I'm sure she made a plushie for me!

And she also made a painting for me at Highschool! It looks beautiful!

''Edd?''

''Yes?''

''Can you please tell me, who i am?''

He facepalms again while saying ''Goddammit Anna! You're Anna! You know everything about lightning!''

I mumble ''i know'' when i pass out. Again.

Great brain! Why not?! Why not just make me pass out eleven more times?!

''Noteworthy?! What's happening?!''

''I don't know! But you need to come out now!''

i realize i stood in the town hall...

This time, as i wake up, i'm in the sofa, getting surprised by waking up, i fall of the sofa. Great.

I suddenly hear Edd say ''She's awake'', followed by a ''Good'' from Sophia.

"What the actual fuck?!" I say loudly.

Sophia says this in that funny way she always talks.

"The same? I guess"

"No, not that!" What? Why did i say this?

"What then?"

"Goddammit brain! Well i was dreaming something funny!"

"What?" Edd sounds annoying when he say that.

"It was the end"

"End of what?!"

"MLP, or not the ACTUAL ending. Like it felt so real! Just like a different life!"

"Wow wow wow calm down Anna! I dont get it, please explain" said Sophia with a different voice this time.

"Okay, the first time i passed out, i saw Noteworthy running towards me.

He screamed Lightning Bolt! And i answered with a simple huh? He screamed back GET OUT OF THERE! NOW!"

"The second time i passed out, i said Noteworthy? What's happening? And he answered: I don't know! But you have to get out of there! Then i realized, i stood in the town hall."

Edd and Sophia just looks at each other, like i looked like a dinosaur.

"Whats wrong?" I ask to Edd and Sophia.

"That is weird" Sophia finally said.

This dream feels so real!

Just like it really happened!

We are born precisely at 2pm.

And we are waiting for us to turn 25!

"Only five minutes left!" I say as i'm looking at my watch that says 1pm 55minutes

I pour a glass of beer for us to drink at that exact moment!

"This is going to be awesome!" Says Edd with his annoying voice.

Sophia says "3"

Edd says "2"

I say "1"

We all shout "DRINK!" At the exact same moment,

But Sophia and i are cold.

"Anna? Sophia? Hello?"

Everything is black.

Finally i can hear Edd's voice " Anna?" "Sophia?"

I find myself once again, sitting at the table.

I suddenly hear a "That. That was weird!" Coming from Sophia, causing me to wake up.

"Uhm Edd?" He doesn't answer!

Maybe the same happens to him! I burst a little "Edd?" Before i blackout. Again.

Great!

"COME OUT NOW!"

Oh no, what to do? Oh yeah, run. Run.

"Why are you standing still?!"

Shit! I can't run... I'm frozen.

"Goodbye! Run while you can Notewor-" i couldn't say more before it became dark.

I wake up to Sophia saying "Not again! This is like the third time today and-"

She stops and looks at me.  "Discord!" I say with no clue why.

Edd ask me "What?" "Discord was in my dream"

"Oh no! This can only be a sign!" Sophia mutters.

I sigh "well i'm going to take a bath! See ya in a minute!"

Sophia sigh, and turns on the TV.

I go to the shower, and get myself undressed as i prepare to walk into the shower.

The countless droplets falling on to my skin, causing a little pain. The water is too hot.

As i stand in there, i ask myself alot of questions.

Why do i have these dreams? Why did i pass out three times today? What happens next? Why didn't we respond when we're about to drink?

As i step out of the shower, i get really surprised!

I see a grey thundercloud with lightning on both of my legs.

That looks exactly like Lightning Bolt's cutiemark!

I try to rub it off, with my fingers. No luck. "Shit shit shit shit who did this?!"

It looks so real! I take my clothes on, and i shout "Edd? Come in here! Now!"

He asks "What's wrong?" "Well i'll let you see what's wrong!" I pull down my pants, showing

The cutiemarks. "OH GOD WHAT DID YOU DO?!"

"More like what did YOU do?!"

"Me? I was out there with Sophia watching TV!"

I stared at him, with my mouth wide open i yell "Sophia? Please come in here!"

"Wow, uhm."

"Edd do you have one too?"

"Don't tell me you're think that we-" he gets interrupted by me saying "yes i am"

He pulls his pants down to find, two eight notes on his legs.

"What about you Sophia?"

"No, no no no. I wont pull my pants down!"

"Then do it while we go out to talk about this"

"Fine, okay"

As we walk out. we hear a scream! One of those screams, that makes us get thrills.

"Are you okay?!" I ask outside of the door.

"Maybe! Anna come in! Only you!"

I walk in to see her with Roseluck's cutiemark!

''Oh god! Who did all of this?!''

''Well i dont know, but we can't get it off!''

I walk out to Edd and say that Sophia's cutiemark is Roselucks.

Then i hear Edd say ''This is weird!''

''Weird? Weirder, than weird! it's psychotic! Humans are not supposed, to have cutiemarks!''

''Calm down Anna!''

''Urrhgh fine! I'm just saying, it's weirder than weird!''

Sophia comes into the room. ''What now?''

I answer, with a simple word! ''Hydration!''

Sophia says ''What?'' With a questionable look.

''We don't know if this is real, so let us drink some water!''

''Why?''

''Maybe, we're all hallucinating!''

''...''

Maybe we are? Why should we? What now?

''Goddammit! It's still there!''

''Don't get mad, Sophia! And we still need to give, our presents to each other!''

''Oh yeah, i forgot!''

''You start Sophia!''

''Okay''

She takes two boxes up, from a bag i didn't see before.

''Green one to you, and blue one to you!''

The blue one is bigger than Edds.

I unpack my blue box from wrapping paper, discovering its real color. Brown.

And now it's just open! ''D'AAAAAAAWWW! IT'S SO CUTE!'' I got a Lightning Bolt plushie! Just like i predicted!

''What about you Edd?''

''FLUTTERSHY! D'AAAAAAWW SO ADORABLE!'' he got a Fluttershy plushie!

I ask Sophia in excitement ''How did you make these?!''

''Oh you know, just some stuffing and other things!''

i'm confused ''Oh, What about you Edd?'' what?

''I got some sweet cinema tickets!''

''Ooooh! what movie? Let me guess! Endless Victims?''

''No, Endless Victims in 3D! we're gonna see it the 4th of May!''

Sophia suddenly yells ''That's awesome! What do you have Anna?''

''I have, posters!'' Yes i'm disappointed too.

''One for you! and one for you!''

Edd sounds over exited when he yells ''YEAH RAINBOWDASH!''

Then Sophia saw hers... ''Yay Fluttershy!''

Right after that, Edd says ''Let's get some pizza! I'm hungry!''

I just answer ''Yeah me too!''

On the way to the local Pizza House, we talk alot about the current situation.

Edd mutters ''what if we are dreaming?''

Sophia answers Edd, quite annoyed ''For the fifth time! We're not dreaming!''

''How can you know that?''

I facepalm while driving... Not good idea!

''Watch out Anna!'' Sophia suddenly scream.

''OH GOD!'' A car drives directly into our lane, with no reason.

that's the last thing i remember.

''She's alive!'' i hear an ambulance in the distance.

Somehow i manage to say ''Of course i'm alive! And stop that!'' While they use a little flashlight, shining directly into my eyes.

''WHAT ABOUT SOPHIA AND EDD?!'' i scream when i realize what situation i'm in.

i hear the doctor say ''Calm down! They're fine''

''Oh god what happened?''

''You had a car accident, What is your name?''

''Anna!''

''What's the last thing you remember?''

''A car driving into our lane''

''Is that all?''

''Yes. And where is Edd and Sophia?''

the doctor says, quite annoyed. ''Right there''

''Oh''

The doctor says to his assistant ''Cancel the ambulance.''

''What were you all, coming out for?''

''Pizza''

''At Pizza House?''

''Yes'' I'm realizing i'm still on the asphalt. ''this is hard ground!''

Edd then mumbles to himself ''You're on asphalt! Duh!''

give me a break...

Sophia says ''We are lucky!'' with pizza in her mouth.

We are in the Pizza House still alive!

''Yeah and Unlucky at the same time!''

''Yeah That was creepy, watching you lie there unconscious.''

How long was i unconscious?  A minute? An hour? Two hours?

''Wait how long was i unconscious?'' I look at my watch saying 9pm 34minutes May 1st 2020

''Three hours''

''Oh god! Uhm that, was more than i expected''

''What did you think?''

Then i grin while saying ''Less than two hours''

Edd finally speaks, after a minutes silence ''This cutiemark thing, still creeps me out man!''

''Yeah, that is creepy!''

''Maybe we should talk about this tomorrow, in our apartment!''

''Yeah lets do that''
