The Calling From Other Side.
Am I sleeping, or have I died? I have no idea if I’m floating or am I in water. I have no idea if I am talking to someone on the other side of the black Veil or if I’m talking to myself. What happened to me? Where and how did I get here?
“Hello?” I ask the vast void that I’m utterly surrounded by. I know that I might not get an answer but I just had to ask just to say that I did it, though I think that the you only live once don’t apply if you are already dead.
“Oh! Where are my manners, my name is John Sterling. Nice to meet you!" I continue to talk to the void.
“Hello?” I ask one more time they always say. I thought that would get me and response for sure, but there’s nothing... Talking to the void is not getting me anywhere apparently so I’ll just try to~
“Run away?”
Yeah that's what I’m going- what the hell?! I thought, Was that a voice that I just heard?
“Hello?” The voice asks me.
“Hello? Is anyone there?”
“Sister? Are you there?” another voice speaks you.
“Luna? Oh thank goodness that you are safe.” The first voice responses to the second.
“`Tia! I’m so glad that you are alright!”
“Luna, are you and the girls away from Chrysalis?”
“Yes…” with a slight pause. “I just wish that you didn't have to stay behind…”
“Some-pony needed to stop her before she got the new world after all… As long as the elements of harmony are intact, Chrysalis won’t succeeds in her goals.”
“How long will we be... Gone? the girls are getting a little... “Then they go silent for a little while.
“Anxious?” i interrupt the second voice that was responding as Luna.
“Yes thank you, that's the word that I-” stopping mid-sentence to think from where and whom the voice came from “Who’s there?”
“Like I said before, my name is John.”
“Well this odd, this is the first time that some-pony else that was able tap into our royal link.”
“Are you working with Chrysalis to keep us apart?”
“I don’t think it really even knows what we are talking about Luna.”
“`Tia! This this, thing is the first to interfere with the royal link without being a princess!”
“I don’t like being called a thing. I’m a living being with a body unlike you! Are you sure that you are living yourself!” I yelled in return. The two voices got silent for a little bit after I said that. I think I hit this Luna or`Tia so hard that she/he is speechless...
“Well I… I… Had one for the most part…”
“What happened Luna?!” The `Tia voice asks the Luna voice with a worried tone.
“Well~” She/ he cleared its voice in desperation.
“Well you see… um uh.” she/he said with a cracking voice.
“What happened Luna!?”
“I don’t know. As soon as we entered the portal, our bodies started to…~”
She got silent for a little bit in hope that someone would finish the sentence…
“Disappear? Disintegrated?” I ask the Luna voice. Might as well add my two cents to the conversation by this point.
“Disintegrated, would best describe what happened...”
“Luna…”
“Well... I just didn’t know what to tell you `Tia. Not even Twilight Sparkle could give me an explanation of what was going on…” in a low tone as if she was going to cry…
“Aw. You sound so cute when you're miserable.”
“I’ll find out where to are and make you eat your words!!” she retorted with a scolding tone.
“Well damn, you don’t need to bit my head off.” I say in a joking manner.
“What you said didn't come out as a joke, um John correct?”
“That's m-”
“Tia! Why are you talking to the...” she/he was quiet for a second, thinking on what to say; cutting me off mid-sentence. Then followed up with her/his sentence. “Bodiless voice. Stop wasting your time talking to it!”
“I'm a disembodied voice you mean? Look at who’s talking, mister or miss bodiless Luna.”
“Humph! If you want to talk to me, Celestia you know how to contact me. Make sure you don’t have this tag along with you next time.”
“”
“Gee thanks. I’ll keep that in mind next time I die...” I feel like the void is somewhat tormenting me via chat room sounds now.
“Your name is John correct?”
“Yes. I’m beginning to think that this `Tia name that Luna called you is a nickname.”
“It is. Do you not know my name, a better question, and what are you seeing?”
“Nope and Nothing. Nothing at all…” with a poker face tone.
“I see…” then after that the voice lets out a sigh.
“Sooo… what’s your real name?” I ask the void to change the topic.
“My name is Celestia. From where I come from I’m a princess and leader of the land of Equestria. I’m going out on a limb here, but are you really not a changeling?”
“What’s that? Some Korean food?” i joking ask this newly named Celestia.
“I see… then you really are from the new world…”
“Before you ask, no I’m not the leader of Earth and no I'm not a world traveler.”
“Well I wasn’t going to ask that.” Responding with a playful tone then following with a chuckle.
“So you are from Earth. Is what your kind calling your world?”
“Well yes. Say the subject never got to it but I’ll ask now. Why did you guys coming to our world? I mean, it’s unprepared for extraterrestrials like yourself; or selves, for Luna sake.”
”Well… we just wanted to know what it's like.”
“That's it?” I ask with a bitter tone.
“Well you start off small with ponies with you just meet right?” With a slightly sarcastic tone with a chuckle after.
It was quiet again. The silence lingered for what felt like twenty-five long seconds. This conversation was going nowhere fast, that much is for sure. But I have nothing to ask the voice…
I mean, what can you ask someone in situations like this? This is getting a little odd though… I normally don’t remember a dream going for this long, I must be dead.
“Mind if I ask you something?” Celestia asks breaking the silences.
“Ask away. I don’t think that I’m going anytime soon?” I respond with a groan.
“How prepared is your world for a war?” She asks with a slight amount of anxiety.
Well this is really blunt question to be asked, especially from someone that's says that they're from another world. If I’m getting what she is asking she, or really they are planning to take over earth. Though I still don’t think this is a dream or I’m dead…. So I think the safe bet if this is a beyond the grave experience…
“No idea…” I respond with a Childish tone. Although I’m not really lying to him/her either.
“Well this maybe a problem then…” The tone of anxiety rises.
“Why? Are you thinking of taking over earth?” I respond with sarcasm.
“Do you remember what I said to Luna awhile back? About some-pony named-”
“I’m sorry, but why are you saying some-pony instead of someone?” I interrupt her/him. I know it’s not the nicest thing to do but I’m starting to get annoyed with it. I mean the only reason why someone would do this is both they are young and ignorant, and jugging if this was a woman she would be out of this speech pattern. Or he needs to put into a mental institute for reconditioning. Yeah I said that, it is what it is.
She/he lets out a sigh. “Because i am a po-”
“Two words, B.S.”
“Do you want to hear the warning or not?” She asked with a cold tone.
“What the point? I'm dead anyways, or at least I think.”
“If you are able to talk on the royal link you are alive and well. Maybe sleeping, but not dead.”
“OH… I see… Sorry.” I respond with an apology. Man I feel like a dick now.
“Anyways.” she/he clears her/his throat and continues. “The Changeling named Chrysalis,
is maybe on her way to find my sister Luna and the ones that are following her to you world.”
“And what happens if she finds them?”
“The end all life.” she/he pauses. “Maybe.”
“Maybe? What do you mean, maybe?”
“Well, do yo-” the sound of static from a TV. started up.
“What the?”
With a groan from Celestia. The static begins to get louder. “Don’t have much strength left so John, listen up.”
I was about to say okay to her/him, but started talking before I could.
“I must ask you to find the ponies named Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Apple Jack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Flutter-shy! They contain the powe. to def.eat Chrysalis an. her .rmy of c.ang.lin.s! Yo. ... .he ..ly … …. sav. .. ...”
The static cut her/him off before she/he could finish talking. At this point the static is starting to stop me from thinking of what she/he was trying to say.
“Ugh I liked the sound of nothingness far more the sound of static.”
“Ohn …John wake up.”
The voice that you heard was my sister. Her name is Mallory, and she's 19 years old. She is two years younger than me, and she acts like a six year old at times. Even though she's younger then me she can come up with the greatest ideas that I wouldn't even think of. She may look small but she is really good at parkour and she knows self defense.
“John you’re going to be late again if you don’t get up now.” she said with a pouting face.
As she says that, the sound of alarm begins to chime.
“Don’t worry, I got-”.
“Bull!” She shouted to cut me off. “You probably sleep through the alarm if I didn’t wake you! You can’t get up for something that could change your life to save it!”
She gets silent for a moment to see I could hear her after that or to watch me writhe in pain of getting yelled at with maybe less than a foot from my ear. With a retaliation action I cover my ears and rolled over to see her face to show her that I heard her being loud and obnoxious.
She moves over to the alarm clock off and looks at the door.
“Now get up, mom wants to talk with you.” saying that with a somewhat low note then letting out a sigh.
I sat up to see if she’ll tell me more on the matter.
“What's up?” I ask with a slightly perplexed face.
“She's mad with you-” she said with an odd face with another sigh.
“-and dad too.”
“What?” I look at her while knocking my head off to the side in confusion.
My mom was always onto me about my life choices, as if I was a dead spot on her life trying to make her miserable. Her lifelong goal was to have three children and they all achieve her expertise, I just didn’t make the cut just because I was born a male. My dad on the other hand was alright with me doing what I wanted to do with my life. He was always that dad that you think that he was brewing beer in the basement, with a stupid blow up guitar that was from his childhood toy and always, ALWAYS looked like a he was always high like a kit. On one side of the corner you have some that has some control problems and on the other hand you have someone that just doesn't a crap if you were shot by a nearby mobster, sounds fun right? You are mistaken.
“Why? Well, I understand why mom want me-” I ask with a sarcastic tone then my tone gets low.
“But why dad?
She just shook her head and shrugged.
“No idea.”
Well this is great, Not only do I have an angry mom that probably has a million things to say to me about stuff that I can’t undo, but I have a super easy go lucky dad that’s upset at me as well.
“This doesn't concern you old man!" The floor barked.
Mallory and I both stare at the floor.
“Please, just go talk to them before they start to throw stuff at each other again.” Mallory says anxiously.
I let out a sigh in hoping that she was kidding, but she was quiet.
“Fine, I’ll take one for the team.” I said while hanging my head down.
As Mallory exits the door closing the door behind her she places a small note on my computer desk and notions that I look at it before I leave the safety of my room.
I get out of bed but some pants on then pick up the note that Mallory left behind.
Happy birthday John!
I would get you something, but we both know what you want to do today
Hear have five dollars, for your new found pastime.
The note had a five dollar bill folded on the inside. After reading the note I look at the back side of the note to see if she ripped it off from one of my school work papers to see that it was indeed blank.
“Huh. Well, she wasn’t as bad today as I expected”
I look to my calendar to see if I am doing today, only to see that I'm free from school all day and tomorrow.
“Mallory you ding dong. You were yelling at me knowing you’ll get away with It.” I say out loud in annoyance.
Then I started thinking about what I was doing before now. I was sleeping right Or was that a vision of some sort?
I shake my head thinking about the dream/Vision that I had with that person called Celestia. No idea on what she/he was talking about. I don’t even know what I'm even looking for? Am I looking for people or objects? What if they are being held by someone that wants these things Celestia told me about. Are they trying to keep them hidden; and if they think I’m on to me will they run away to keep me from having these things from me? Or worse, try to kill me.
Well if that whole thing was a real threat that means that something was coming at us. But I don’t know what. Yet...
Oh I never told you about me did I? Well as you know my name is John Sterling. I'm the lazy one of my family, and I don't really care. If I told you that I know a lot of really cool things, like that super cool kung fu move from the movies; I would be lying...really hard. As you probability guess I like to complain a lot even though its hard to say that I don't. I don't get along with a lot of people, and don't have many friends. I would like to say that I was trained to be loud. On top of that I can drive most of the trucks that you would normally see on the road now and days, as well fix them if they have problems running. I dabbled in a little bit of knife throwing for self defense and was pretty good at it, though I hope that I never have to put my training to the test on some one. So yeah, now you know me, well a little more now anyways.
I get fully dressed for the day with a polo t-shirt and carpenter jeans, looking at the mirror to see how I looked before I get scolded for something I did wrong in my mom’s eyes. Maybe if I look
innocent I'll get out the house in under fifteen minutes. Maybe even get Mallory some time away from mom while I’m at it.
“If I weren’t me, she wouldn't be angry at me for long.” I jokingly say in front of the mirror making a few possess afterwards…
“I know right! Like that would be like, Sooo rude!” A mysterious voice coming out of the mirror.
“What the!?” I jump away from my mirror in a little of a panic, only to trip over some wires from my not so tidy room and land on my back hitting my head.
“And you know what?! The voice continues. “I think it’s going to be your lucky day! Like, so lucky that every-pony see your big bright smile-” the mirror continues to talk about how today is going to be great then goes into how you smile is going to do something.
I shake my head to see if it would stop it, after a little bit the voice from the mirror disappeared. I get back up and walk to the mirror. I take a look at the four corners of the mirror to find nothing odd with it.
“Hello?” I ask the mirror to see if would talk like it did before Only to look like an idiot. I let out a sigh there after.
“Well then” In relief.
“Some peace an-”
I talked too soon, I could hear something or someone getting hit with a pan of some sort.
“Hey! Hey! Stop hitting me! That hurts!”
Okay I've been in here for long enough. That was dad getting hit with frying pan being wielded by mom. You'd think that this is a funny image, but I assure you that it’s just as fun getting hit by one. No doubt that she's well over boiled by this point, If I confronted her now she’ll get another one to try to hit us both.
I shrug and say. "Well that’s going on... Doubt I’ll be able to talk to them now.” with a smile on my face. After that
I grab my wallet and cell phone.
I slowly exit my room so mom wouldn't noticed that I left my room, sneak down to the main floor to see if Mallory was safe to grab. I slowly walk down the stares to see her sitting and waiting for me as if she already knew this would happen. Without saying anything we get our shoes on, grab a key to the house and car and left the house.
“Surprising." Mallory said while we both let out a sigh then continuing her sentience. "It only took them seven minutes to have an all-out brawl this time.”
“Really? Well sorry for~”
“Let’s get lunch.” Mallory cutting me off implying that she doesn't want to talk about it.
“Hmph. Fine, where at then?”
“Well since you did leave me to just watch them bicker back and forth. Hmm...” She puts her hand on her chin thinking.
Why do I feel like this day is going to suck the cash out of my credit card? I never like it when she does this. If I’m right about this she is going to say-
“TGIFridays!" I’ll call for reserve a set for us and my friends!”
God I hate it when that whole brainwave sync up game.
“I might even call Trevor to see if he’s open today.”
Trevor is my older brother; He is a big time naginata samurai fan, he also went to get classes for it too. He got a scholarship to a big university for crazy hard trigonometry not even a year ago and Haven’t seen since then. If there was anything I had a question about, I would ask him before both my parents. He's a really cool brother to have. I feel like I take him for granted before when we were kids, though he'd always got me back in tenfold.
“Pfft, good luck. He’s in that big time university now remember? Besides he properly had too much homework right now anyways.” I respond to her.
“You never know. He is the old brother you know.” She said texting while speaking.
“I don’t think the Big brother is watching thing applies here Mallory.” I tell her coldly.
“You never know John.”
She taps on her phone a couple more times before putting her phone away.
“Okay then miss Must-Have-Everything-Her-Way. Who's Driving?” I ask in a sarcastic way.
“Hmm. Why yes, I do get everything my way.” telling me as if I gave her a realization in life. She walks up to me and punches me as hard as she probably could without braking me in two while taking the keys in the process, then runs to the car.
“I’m driving!”
“Like hell you are!” I retort in slight annoyance.
End?
When we get to the TGI Fridays, we park the car in a parking spot a little away from the entrance door. I then notice that there was a closer parking spot and point to it, Mallory turned off the car and tried to roll up the windows. After noticing that the windows aren't moving, Mallory shakes her head and terns the car to accessory mode to close the windows. I laugh under my breath at her so she wouldn’t hit me. I look to the parking lot and see a flood of people leaving the restaurant and to their cars.
“Why don’t we wait for the mass to drive for a better spot?” I ask Mallory.
“Cus I don’t want to.” Mallory response with a sarcastic tone.
I shake my head. I wasn’t going to fight with her by this point, she had made up her mind after all. I put my hand on the doorknob and begin to exit the car. As I take my leg out of the car I feel a tug on my shirt, I look to see Mallory grabbing my shirt with her hand.
“Can I have you sit in here for a little bit? I want to make sure that my friends are there and we still have a spot to sit.” Mallory begins the conversation.
“Why? Unless you invited someone that I didn’t know I see no reason for that.” I ask Mallory in hope that she answers.
“I don’t want there to be a problem like last time that we when here.”
“Last time?” I thought to myself. I recall that the staff forgot that we had a spot reserved spot and had filled it with some else.
“The reason why I yelled at the waiter was that he was rude and didn’t even try to fix the problem.” I replay To Mallory. Mallory shakes her head in a bothered protest then looks at me.
“Just stay in the car. I’ll text you when we are settled up and ready.” Mallory says. I let out a sigh and nod my head.
“Fine. Go ahead then, I’ll wait here for you.” I replay to Mallory. She smiles a little then let’s goes of my shirt and turns the key to lock and exits the car and walk to the restaurant.
About five minutes pass by without the sight of Mallory. Gee, what happened? This isn’t normal for her at all. Is she getting dressed for the party of something? Or is this a surprise party for me?
I look at the side mirror but nothing out of the ordinary. People walking out of the restaurant and getting into their cars then driving off… Another two minutes pass by; I’m beginning to nod off due to boredom.
“Man, this blows.” I say out loud with my head resting on the side door looking at the restaurant thou the mirror, but after saying that I notice something well… how would you put it? Off? Like a nub of dark blue object swinging back and forth, as if the thing is waving at me. I look away to the windshield of the car to notice a somewhat short man with a big gut walking to the restaurant. The only thing I was thinking of was if there was a small kid with a trumpet following this man.
“Hey” a mysterious voice comes out from nowhere. I look from where it came from.
“The party is ready so you can come in whenever.” The voice continues. I look at the mirror to see a long draping dress slowly enters the restaurant. Or at least I think.
“Must be Mallory, okay then the party must be a classy one or something.” I continue to look at the mirror.
My head gets a little hazy and the world begins to blur a little bit. I shake my head to return to earth. I look at the mirror to see the short man looking back at me the smirks then following the dress. I get out of the car and begin follow the short man.
I get into the restaurant and being to look around. The room that I’m presented with has plush sage green velour with dark blue drapes, white and black tile on the floor and many hallways crowned with roman style pillars. The space has a bar awkwardly in the center of the room surrounded by the blue drapes. There were two shapes sitting at the bar from what it looked like talking to each other. One of the shapes was clarified as the short man that I saw earlier, the other however not so sure.
“Well go on. Don’t make my [STATIC] wait.” A voice comes out from nowhere. I think for a moment and try and think of where I have heard that voice before.
"Celestia?" I call out to the voice in hope that it would respond.
“So you remembered me? Well this will be less awkward for you.” The voice that responded as Celestia.
"What’s going on, and what did you say just now?" I ask Celestia.
“I feel that you are near [STATIC] so I am helping you find [STATIC].” She/he responds without taking note of my question.
I shake my head and try to understand for a moment while Celestia was talking. After Celestia, there was a moment silence.
Awesome, I'm going to sound like an ass if I ask but I can't understand what she/he said. fuck that clever static.
"Find who? There are two blobs in here." I respond to her/him to continue the conversation.
“What do you mean? You are her should be the only ones in there. Sorry I can't really hear you over this static.” Celestia asks for details.
So I'm not the only one with the static, wonderful.
My curiosity is eager to know what is going on. I could ask her/him where I am but I think I should go with what I got for now. I focus on the bar and try to get a better look at the ones at the bar but still can’t get a good look.
"Well like I said before, there are two blobs in the room sitting at the bar. One is a man, and the other… I don't know, a disfigured dog? I saw the man walk into the room before me while smiling at me. The dog on the other hand must have been in here to begin with." I retort to Celestia.
“hmm. That's odd there seems to be something wrong with the [STATIC] that I'm using on you. Maybe someone else is making the room... Well this may be odd to ask but can you find out what this man is doing there? My [STATIC] must be the other ‘blob’ that you referred to.” Celestia asks.
Figures. Not only am I having censorship static problems, I need to do something to do with the people that are sitting at the bar. What do they say about talking to people at a bar? Chloroform? Ether? Take your pick. If I got what the word said clearly the options are either rape or death, well I know what I’m not doing. Hmm what to do…
“I don’t even know what is going on. Let alone figure out what we are doing here.” I tell Celestia. After asking that my head begins to hurt. I look at the two figures to see the man sitting behind the bar was looking at me. His eyes blank white from the dissidence with a disturbing large purl white smile.
“Why don’t you come in? It's a little cold out in the middle of nowhere, ain’t it? The man calls out to me. After the disturbing look he puts out his hand and notions me to come over. For some creepy feeling my body tells me to walk to him and begins to do so without my consent, as if he is controlling my body.
My now non responding body sits at the bar and looks at the man.
Well that’s great. Now I’m sitting at the bar. For the love of god please be chloroform not ether. I thought to myself now annoyed.
“There, that wasn’t too hard now was it?” the man talks to me then looks at the other being. “So what’s your name again dear?” the man continues talking to the other being.
“L…” a voice from another comes out, more than likely the Dog at the bar.
Wait! There's a talking dog at this table?!
“What was that? I can’t hear you over your mind trying to resist me.” The man tries to make the dog thing talk.
“Who Are you?” I tried asking the man, but my body is not allowing me to move. This is getting more and more disturbing. The man didn’t even look at me as I tried to talk. It’s like being trapped in your own skin.
“Darling, you know that it’s bad to not replay when you are asked a question.” The man asks the dog thing.
He widens his blank eye to the other person. No doubt that the man has something to do with what’s going on here. Next thing that I hear is a woman scream.
The shear fear of what just happened broke whatever stopped me from making my own moves; I look over to the other person to see a dark blue big faced dog with hair like the starry night standing with a face that made you think it was in pain.
“What the?” I speak out loud with a cracked voice. I put my hand in front of my face to hide my expression.
I feel a cold chill fall down my spine after I did that. The thing that came up from out of my head first was “You shouldn’t have done that”. I look over to the other man to see him with a stern look on his face.
Fuck! I guess I got ether instead. maybe I can fix this back to a chloroform situation. What? I don't want to die! would you? thought not.
“Well it looks like somepony is…” he says while gritting his teeth but then stops. He puts his creepy smile back on and looks back to the blue dog, as if he was going to forget what I just did. “So, what was your name again Darling?” he continues with the interrogation.
The horse was gasping for air as if it was under water. *Chough chough* “Luna.” The dog finally replied with a sweat drop fell off her head.
“Well that all you needed to tell me. See? Doesn’t it feel good to get that off your chest?” the man crawled over to the dog that called itself Luna. When he got close he put his hand on Luna front leg and began stroke it with his tongue sticking out.
“John!? John! Snap out of it John!” A voice called out.
“Huh?! Celestia?” I thought to myself.
“John I know you can hear me! Get the man away from Luna!” she/he shouts.
“Oh? Do my ears deceive me or did I hear Celestia call out to somepony named John? “The man turns his head to my direction. “John was it?” He asked me with an angered tone.
Fuck! No idea what is going on but I don’t want to be here anymore! I screamed in my head with a feeling of a large sweat drop sliding down my head.
I remained silent in hope that he wouldn’t go any farther with the new tone that he has.
He widens his eyes at me with a scowl “Well! What is your name!?” he shouts in my face.
Fuck you ether! I screamed in my head with from what the feeling of a thousand tear sliding down my face.
My head feels like it’s in pain, a bounded, hot iron stabbed, twisted pain. Not sure if it’s the fact that he screamed in my ear or something else. If it is something else I don’t want to know what he did or doing to me.
“Well, What do you have to say for yourself?! What's your name?!" The man continues to yell at me. The pain in my head grows the more he stares at me. i put my hands over my head and try applying pressure to my temples in hope that would help, sadly however it dos not.
If he continues any more with this, I’ll be going to E.R. for C.S.F. draining or something! I got to make an escape and get out of here!
“G.. Guile” I squeeze out.
I lied. What? I don’t this guy to know who I am. Come back to me and say when you told the person that is giving you a headache your real name and didn't lie.
“Guile huh? Small world. My brother’s name was Guile… well… before I killed him.” Hans replies.
What the Hell? Where did that come from?
“Well then Guile, nice to meet you. My name is Hans.” The man turns his head and looks at Luna and continues talking.
“But to the ponies in their world, I’m known as Dark lightning. “
“What is he going on about? In their world?” I think to myself.
“John!” Celestia yells.
The next thing that I can feel a punch in my gut. As I look down I see a knife that is in Hans’s hand.
“You stabbed me?” I ask Hans.
“shh shh shhhhh.” Hans said while sliding his hand over my mouth then continued to stab me over and over again. “It’ll be
just a dream.” He continues to talk and stabbing me while shaking his head with a creepy smile.
I look over to see the dog thing looking back at me and trying to figure out what is going on. after realizing that I am getting killed it gives a scared look and begins to run out of the building thru one of the many hallways.
Gee thank for the help, so much for mans best friend.
“The world is getting dark… what and I to do… ugg.” I say out loud before losing consensus.
"Looks like I now need to find this John pony now. Be back soon Dar-." Hans says and turns to Luna. noticing that Luna is no longer at the bar he looks for an exit that it might have gone thru.
"Mother fuck, she got out of my trap also. Well I guess if I want to mount her I go to catch her first! Oh what Fun!" Hans yell out loud in hopes that Luna could hear him. After yelling out he runs out thru a different exit thinking that Luna ran thru that hallway.
Fuck, my head hurts.
“John?” a voice calls out in my head.
“Huh? Yeah?” I answered.
“ Thank goodness, I thought I lost you for a moment there. Are you alright?”
“Yeah, I’m all good Celestia.”
“That’s good to hear, but what happened in there? One moment you’re fine, the next you are talking to that Hans guy and then you are out for a while.”
“I got sta-” I opened my eyes to see that I am back in the car. Out of instinct I look down to where Hans stabbed me to see that there was no indication of getting stabbed, then I look at the time and notice that it's like nothing happened. “What the heck just happened?”
"..."
"Well?"
“I’m thinking of a way to explain what just happened.”
"Okay then."
there was a minute of silence between Celestia and I.
Okay, well this is going nowhere fast. I think I’ll try something else while she/he is thinking…. "Why is there a second voice in my head?" I think that is a good start. Don’t you?
“Okay well let’s get back to that later, for now I want to know why you are in my h-“
“Think of what happened as a lucid dreaming but you are in someone else’s dream.”
“What?”
“That’s the easiest way to explain it.”
“Okay, that explains one of the many questions. Now the question that I just asked?”
“You know the time that you first heard me? Think of it as you never left the room. You may have left it from waking up but you-…Ugh this is really hard to explain without m-.”
“Like a chat room?”
“What is a chat room? We are talking about how I am talking to you though your head.”
”I know, that’s what I’m talking about.”
“You mean the princess mental speak channeling spell?”
“Yeah! Well I think anyways. Anyways the reason that I can’t hear the other voice was because she logged out right; you and I didn’t get the chance to log off, so that’s why we are still communicating right?”
A moment passes without a response.
“Right?” I ask again.
“Yeah, basically. Sorry, not so good with human terminology yet.”
Okay well that was answered… Wait a minute.
“So how am I still able to talk to you even though I’m still awake?”
The voice groans again “With magic.”
“Magic?”
“You know, magic! Magic is magic! You must at least know that much!” Celestia’s voice begins to get hostel.
Okay then. I guess I am beginning to push buttons now. Screw this, I’ll just go with what she is thinking on. Even though I don’t understand it.
“Oh, okay then. Sorry I thought you said something else for a moment there.” I lie to the voice.
“Really? Well anyways that answers your questions right?” Celestia begins to calms down.
“I’ll think of something later but for now I’m satisfied.”
“Good. Now I got some questions for you now.” Celestia’s tone changes to a more curious level.
Oh boy this is going to fun. Look I hate giving questions as much as an investigator (ha ha), but I hate getting questioned.*sigh* I guess I got to, let it get even and all.
I roll my eyes at the request. “Shoot.”
"Shoot?"
"Go for it."
“Okay then, do you know that Hans guy?” Celestia asks.
“No.”
“Okay then. Do you know where he came from at least?”
“What? how would I know that if I never meet him?”
“Fair point. What did he mean by ‘to the ponies in there world’ he quoted? Dos he know anything about us?”
“Again, no idea.”
There was a moment of silence.
“So you don’t kno-
“Oh for the love of Pete, No! I don’t know anything of use about Hans. At all!” I yell at Celestia in response.
There was a moment of silence after that comment.
Did I go to far with that?
“Okay then. So that scratches out some questions that I had for you.”
Another moment of silence.
“Soo now what?” I ask Celestia returning to a normal tone.
“No idea” she/he replies.
Another moment of silence...
Man, this conversation is going of for long walk to nowhere now.
“Oh! Here’s a question!” Celestia talks out loud.
Oh boy. ”Go ahead.”
“Did you see anything out of the ordinary on ether of the two ponies?
“Other than the fact that there was a talking blue dog sitting on a chair?”
“What? That can't be, I sensed Luna in that... Wait, you haven't seen our kind before did you?... Yeah... More then likely that was Luna.”
The worlds that I just heard took me by surprise. I’m still thinking about what Celestia said and trying to make sense of it.
“Say what now? I guess Brain.java is not working right.”
"What kind of hair color did this dog have?"
What do I look like, an artist?
"Umm... dark blue with white specs?"
“Yeah, that’s my little sister.”
I shake my head to the response.
"what? How is that possible?"
"Remember the conversation we had before you woke up? If you recall and didn't deny what I said. you would already know this. Also and to be clear, we aren't dogs, we are ponies."
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by the thought. If I remember the time we talked correctly, they were saying some ‘pony’. So I guess the two are both are horses or more accurately, ponies. though i was thinking more E.T. looking for extra terrestrials, not ponies.
"Question."
"yes?"
“What is a Brain dot java?” Celestia asks.
Oh damn it. should of seen this one coming.
“Forget it. It’s a human thing.”
“Oh I see. Well, anything else.”
“Well other than that, Hans controlled my body.”
“Hmm. So you’re telling me that you didn’t walk to the room but somepony else forced you to? “
“yeah. My body moved on its accord.”
"And you didn't try to counteract the spell?"
"How? If I'm on the same page here, I can't use magic. At all."
"Can you fly?"
"What? Like, without technicality?"
"Never mind, you must be an earth pony then."
"What? What dos that- *groan* I guess I'm lost then."
“Okay here's an example: There's three kinds of ponies in- *exhales*... Sorry for me not coming up with better things to say, I'm still focused on finding where the elements of harmony and there owners are. Let me ask the question again differently. Are kind able to use magic normally?”
*scuff*” I we were able to use magic we wouldn’t have cars.” I replay with sarcastic tone.
“What do you mean by that?"
Silence fills the room for a moment.
“Okay think of this. If we had magic, I would know what was happening when I first heard you and Luna.”
Silence fills the conversation.
Dear god, not this again.
"With me so far?" I ask Celestia.
"That makes sense, I guess. But with that in mind now, how is Hans able to use magic?”
“Your guess is as good as mine Celestia.”
“Okay then, I think its safe to say that we have a stranger among us then. Well you do anyways.”
Silence fills the room again. I look into the mirror to find anything different before I saw Hans; to see Mallory standing in front of the TGI Fridays looking at the car then me thou the mirror.
“Okay then. I guess we are going to put the questions on hold for now. I see Mallory waiting for me.”
“okay then. I’ll be here and wait for you. It’s not like am going anywhere soon being stuck in this snare and all.” Celestia says in a jokingly.
“you are going to tell me what happen later now you do realize?”
Celestia’s tone grows quiet and somber some “I know. I’ll tell you when you are done and alone.”
“That sounds like a plan to me.”
I collect myself and make sure that can control my body by moving my hand and move my jaw a little bit. with the confirmed check I exit the car and walk to Mallory waiting for me at the entrance.
end?
