A Trip Down Memory Lane

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Garry sat comfortably in his seat at the movie theaters. It was dark with the smell of buttery popcorn, though no such popcorn can be seen. He was the only one there. He knew this place well. This was the Rusty Mike Theatre, just down the street where he lived. He sat there anxiously to see the featured film. He heard a poof sound and there was Princess Luna sitting next to him. Garry almost jump out of his seat at the sight of the Princess.

"Luna! How did you get out of Equestria? W-what happens if..." He look around and his senses revealed that there was indeed something off. First, there was always people here at the Rusty Mike. Second, he check his pockets to see if he had a ticket for the show. There was nothing. Then me check his neck. That's when he knew, he was wearing his mothers amulet when she died. He never wore the thing expect for one occasion.

He was dreaming.

He glanced over to her, "I am in a dream aren't I?" The princess nodded to confirm that he was indeed inside a dream. "Well at least this a free show," he joke to himself.

"Indeed this will be a fine show, care if I watch your life with you?" The night princess asked.

"Watch my life?" questioned Garry.

"You don't know what thy place is?" She look at him dumbfounded. He just shook his head. "This is what we call a 'Memory Show.' She said looking back at the grainy screen. A lightbulb lent off at Garry. He had a similar dream some time ago before coming to the equine land. Some night he would be a place were his memories were played in his dream, like an actual movie.

He smiled as he got comfy in his chair, "be my guest Luna, I never had someone else, or in this case, somepony else inside my head watching it with me," Garry cheered. With that, the light began to dim. A film projector came to life. The movie just started with Garry sitting in his office chair at home. He look quite comfortable on this seat. His memory showed him slowly dematerialize with a look of horror on Garry's face. He remembered when he was "summoned" here. The great pain he endured when jumping dimensions. Garry shift uncomfortably in his seat at the memory.

Luna noticed his discomfort and was about to reach out a reassuring hoof when she noticed from the corner of her eye. The next scene in Garry's memory show came into view. The two audience members watch as they see Garry on the screen falling after materializing in mid air. He fell towards the ground heading straight for the Everfree Forest. Garry on screen screamed loudly as he fell. Luna look away but peek under her hoof. Before Garry fell to his death. He saw a flash of light and was great by the ground. Luckily for him, Twilight was there to stop his fall. Garry remembered this well, and he got to see this in full detail. They both saw Garry on screen in absolute terror and shock that he passed out. What happen next intrigued Garry. He knew he passed out after seeing equines talk, but he did not remembered this.

After he passed out, Twilight look a bit nervous, she looked guilty about possibly killing what she practiced so hard trying to summon. Twilight consulted with her five pony friends.

"Oh what do I do, the princess is going to be so furious with me!" Twilight panics as she pranced in place, "What if she banishes me for murder of a sentient creature, or what if there is a worse punishment for murder, Oh this is never happen before, what if-"

"Whoa, relax egg head," said a cyan pegasus floating just above Twilight, "I think it just passed out ya know? Say, anypony want to make sure thou?" said the pony with a devilish smile.

"Well, don't look at moi! It's looks revolting!" explained the pale unicorn, "Fluttershy you're an expert with animals, you should make sures out cold?"

"Did you see the look on his face? I bet he is so happy to see us he just fell asleep!" Said a bright pink pony bouncing up and down with a dopey smile on its face.

"Pinkie, I don't think this, 'thing,' is happy at all with us" said the orange pony in a flat tone, "Fluttershy, can ye tell if its alive?"

The yellow pegasus was hiding behind it's crowd of friends, "Um, I-It's fine, can we just go home and send it back... please?"

"No! I can't that spell was a one way connection, it will takes years to get it to reverse the polarity," protested Twilight. When Garry heard those words left Twilight mouth, he sank into his seat. He felt as if a thousand pounds of weight was put on his shoulders.

"...Years...?" he said in a hopeless tone. He was about to get out from his seat and walk out when Luna used her magic to grab his arm.

"There is more to this tale then the listeners can bear," she riddled to Garry.

"What else is there to see?" responded Garry in a low tone. He look back to the silver screen just to humor the Luna. He could believe his ears and eyes. But alas, there it was.

"Twilight what you doin' its an animal! It needs to go to the vet!" the orange pony yelled as Twilight used her horn to levitate Garrys unconscious body on to her back, struggling to walk towards what seems to Garry as Ponyville.

"Its not an it," she growled angrily at her friends, "He is a sentient being, a being that has feelings and most likely scared and confused, he doesn't need a vet, he needs me!" Twilight groaned under her breath loudly. One by one the five other ponies started to help Twilight back to her. With that, the curtains close on the screen and the projectors dies. Garry sat in his seat utterly confused what he just witnessed. Luna saw this expression on his face and enlighten him.

"Not only do you care for Twilight Sir Garry, but the feeling seems mutual," she said getting up to walk out the door, "remember Garry, never hide your true feelings no matter what they are. Oh and I Almost forgot, have a nice day." her horn glew and teleported out of Garry's dream before he could ask what she meant.

"G-Garry? You ok?" Said an echoing voice through the theatre he thought he recognized. He felt everything start to rock back and forth, losing his balance. Before he knew what was going on, everything started to fade black. He then was awoken by a familiar scent of new books and a warm hoof on his back.
