I'm in a forest. I hear whispers of my name echo off the trees."ffiiiioooonnna,fiooooooooooonnnaa"
Suddenly, the seemingly innocent whispers tun into screams.
" FAILURE!"
"ABOMINATION!"
"DISGRACE!"
I wake up in a cold sweat, gasping for air. Forcing myself to get out of bed,I glance at the clock limply hanging on my wall. I squinted at the numbers only to realize that I'm late for work.
I sprint to the bathroom, brushing my tangled mess of a mane and scrubbing my teeth. I spit out the white foam in my mouth out into the sink. I look in the mirror to see a tired white unicorn look back at me. I sigh and tie my black and green mane back with a mint green ribbon.
galloping at full pace out the door I bump into a yellow Pegasus.
" Oh, I'm so sorry miss Fiona! I didn't see you there."
" It's o.k. Fluttershy." I sighed. It was hard to get angry at the shy mare.
I shook myself off and continued my route to sugarcube corner.
" Mornin' Fiona!" Mr. cake smiled as he handed me the first package of the day. I read the address, and began my way out the door, smiling at Pinkie Pie on my way out. Holding the package in my magic I began to trot over to golden oak library, where miss twilight sparkle resided.
On my way through town I could hear whispers of my name. I rolled my eyes, trying to Ignore them. Keeping my head low, I managed to make my way to the library without snapping at somepony.
I knocked on the door and waited for a response. After a few second of waiting A tired lavender unicorn appeared at the door. She immediately brightened and her posture straitened at the sight of me. " hello fiona! please come in!" she beckoned me with her hoof.
Setting the package on a nearby table I sat on a cushion next to the one twilight already occupied. " I'm glad you're here! I recently got a letter from celestia asking for an audience with you." she smiled as she levitated a pot of tea and two cups toward us. I sat there, dumbfounded by what twilight just said. " P-princess celestia w-wants to s-see me?" I stammered. twilight nodded, blowing on her tea.
I shakily levitated the cup to my lips and took a small sip.
Hundreds of thoughts zipped through my head, "why me?"  "did I do something wrong?" . I set my cup back down on it's plate. " she also asked me and my friends to come too." she said softly, taking a long drink from her cup before refilling it. I just sat there not knowing what top say.
After a few minutes of silence I managed to say," why? "
she shrugged setting her cup down." She didn't mention, but she said it was urgent." twilight murmured. I stood and began to breathe rapidly before passing out.
