The unwanted truth
Cell life
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWhen i woke, I was lying on a stone floor. When I got up off the ground, I noticed that it was not just the floor that was stone. But also the walls and the ceiling.
There was a door on one of the walls. But it was made of bars. There was a bunk bed built into the wall. Along with a sink and a toilet.
"So your finally awake." A voice said from the far corner. I turned the direction of voice. It was dark in the corner so I couldn't make out the figure.
"W-who's there?" I asked, trying not to sound scared.
"I think you already know who I am." The figure said. Out of the shadows stepped scootaloo. But she looked nothing like she did in the show. She was older. At least a teenager by how ponies look.
Also her hair laid flat and she had a huge scare crossing her left eye and and continuing diagonally across her nose and ending at her upper lip.
The eye that the scare covered was a bleak gray color. Meaning that she could no longer see out of it. I took a step back, shocked by what I saw. "Sc-scootaloo?" I asked. She gave me a little smile.
"Hey there. Hows it going?" She said with a weak voice. I stepped closer to her. It was in fact her.
"W-where am I?" I asked her. Her smile slowly fell.
"Equestria or, at least, whats left of it." She told me.
"What do you mean?" I asked as I slowly started to get a grip of my surroundings. She explained to me that the show that I watch was actually taped years and years ago.
It was on air to get attention to this world. Once this world did look like in the show, but since then it had turned into a living hell. Princess Celestia had gotten sick in the mind and had caused war with the other races.
She won the war, but the cost was grave. Hundreds of thousands of ponies had died in the war and something had to be done. So twilight and the other elements came together and killed Celestia.
It was the only way to put a stop to her. Everyone thought that after she was gone everything would go back to normal.
If only that was the case. I was told that after she was killed, the elements decided to take all of that power and rule Equestria themselves. Luna tried to stop them, but she was no match for all 6 of them.
Discord was nowhere to be found. Some believe that he fled the castle so that the girls could not take his powers as well.
All I know is this is not the Equestria I dreamed of. Not even close to any fanfic I've ever read. "Well, your here. I don't know for what reason, but here you are. I've never heard of a human coming here." She told me.
I sat on the floor and looked at the ground. All of this sounded like a bad dream.
But there was no way this could be a dream, right? "It's strange though." She said. I looked up at her.
"What is it?" I asked.
"In all of the time I've been here, never once have i had a cellmate." She explained. She came over and sat next to me. "So, I never caught your name." She said.
"I-I'm......." I thought about it, but I couldn't remember my name.
"I don't know." I told her.
"Amnesia huh? That will clear up." She said. I looked at her.
"Why are you here?" I asked her. She stared at the wall across from her.
"It's a long story." She told me.
"I understand." I said. She got up and went over to the bunk. She picked up a set of clothing and brought them to me.
"Here, you'll need these."
She told while handing me them. When I looked closer at the clothes, I noticed that they were prison clothes. "The guards brought these in with you." She explained. She handed them to me. "Put these on." She told me.
I stood up. I took off my sweatshirt which had apparently gotten cut up. I took my shirt off and threw it on the ground. I put on the prison top. It didn't really fit to my body.
I took my shoes and pants off. I looked over to scoot to see her looking away. At least the prison pants fit in the waist area. I put my shoes back on.
40 years ago if you would have told me that I would soon be dragged into a horrible version Equestria and thrown into a prison to be bunked with scootaloo who had been tortured a time or two, I would have thought you crazy and walked away.
Now, not so much.
I put my shoes back on and sat against the wall. Scoot came over and sat next to me. "You must have done something really bad." She said.
"Whys that?" I asked.
She grinned. "This cell block that we are in isn't a normal one like the rest. This block is reserved for the prisoners that the warden see's as a threat to the rule of Equestria." She told me.
"Then why are you in here?" I asked. Her face showed no expression.
"I cant trust you to tell you." She told me. I sighed.
"I guess that's true since we just met and all." I said. Suddenly, the cell door opened and a pony wearing a guard uniform stood in the door way.
"Human! The warden wants to see you." He said. Scoot placed a hoof on my shoulder.
She smiled. "You'll be fine." She reassured me.
"Ya." I told her. I got to my feet and walked over to the guard.
"Start walking." He told me, stepping to the side. I took one last look at scoot, then I stepped out of the door and into the hallway.
