Preserved

Previous ChapterEverything the next day seemed to be a complete blurr of colors and sensations, one leading into the other like some sort of odd dream sequence. My vision was all misty and stuff, like there was this haze or fog. I couldn't see past 20 feet in front of me except for the sunrise. I remember waking up in some sort of night-time, and seeing a bunch of colors rise up in the sky. It was a sunrise or something.
I wanted to follow the pretty colors, but the dark blue one blocked me from going any further, saying something about a balcony and a cliff. I think I forgot to thank her. I really didn't care, though, there was pretty colors, and I wanted to follow them.
The white one with the pretty colors in her hair came next, and I decided to follow the pretty colors even more. I think the white one didn't like me following her, but it's not my fault there were pretty colors. I hadn't even seen pretty colors like that before. They waved around like a flag, and seemed to just call me over- I could even see them through the fog when I couldn't see anything else 20 feet in front of me.
Same with the blue wavy color with all the twinkly blinky lights. I liked that one, too, but not as much as the pretty colors. I've seen blinky lights before.
I wandered after her with a goofy smile on my lips until I saw her do something with her magic cone-thing on her head. I suddenly felt this buzzing warmth crawl up my legs and arms, bouncing up my nerves through my spine. When it hit my head, the warmth turned to a chill and went back down my body, making me shiver.
The blue one noticed this and spoke in my language. I think there were words about magical over-something or other that I didn't really care about. She then said another something in horse-talk to the white one who talked back. They argued back and forth, it seemed, when another horse-thing with a cone on its head made magical sparklies with its horn, too, and I felt the sensation again.
This time, it was a little bit more painful than pleasant, until the chill left, leaving me feeling cold and uncomfortable. The white one gave me a blanket and I realized I was naked. I was too woozy to care. I just wrapped the blanket around me and mumbled to myself.
The blue one made some loud announcement with its loud voice, all sounding like a bunch of whinnies and snorts. I should have figured out she was making some sort of command. I then just sort of lay in the floor, shivering while the white one cooed into my ear. She seemed startled when I hugged her face- backing away for some reason. I thought she wanted me to let go, or something, so I tried it. She then lowered herself so her floor was on the belly and then I backed onto her climb.
I spent the rest of the day clinging to her back in a daze, watching her do people with things and stuff...I started selfing to my think,
is this... life, it or something? If I homed stay, I might be able to clear thinkly, instead of blurr in this live.
Oh, great, now I'm backwardsing my stuff and words. Guhhhh.
I'm just gonna look at the color pretties and nuzzle them. I think I made her laugh when I did that. Can she read my mind? Uh huhuh that would be cool...
Ugh, my mind's not thinkly clearing!
I just nuzzled into her hair. It smelt good. I could hair her nuzzle all day because it goods so smell...
I think that's food. There's leafy things on plate with a knife and fork. I picked up the fork, but-- damn, this thing was complicated. I had to lever it to food the stab, then put it in my mouth. Eh, screw that, I'll use my hands. No, wait. That's not a fork. That's a spoon. That that's soup. Not a salad. No, wait there is a salad, it's just over there... Oh, Gods, is this life? I just kinda lowered my face into the salad and started crying and pounding my fist on the table or something. I think ponies were staring.
No, wait. My face is in the soup. That's why I can't breathe. That muches so explain! Wait, what?
I somehow managed to finish my meal and felt a little bit more energized, so I started walking places.
I didn't see much to walk around to, so I just walked. Suddenly, I noticed I was on the white one with the pretty colors, so I nuzzled her, and saw that her pretty wings were flapping. Hah! Me is flying! Oh, ho, ho, ho... whatumIdoin.
Lookie there, the blue one is flying too! She's only like 6 feet away. I can walk there. I got off the white one and tried to walk to where the blue one was flying.
Oh that's odd. The blue one is going up. Now she's coming back down. Now she's under me.
Ooh, I see pretty sparkly hair. I nuzzled it while the blue one made whinnying noises.
A few minutes later, and I saw there were ropes around my torso. No matter, I was on something soft, so I'd be all happy and stuff.
"Pretty white Horsey, can you get me some whater? I'm hungry." I tried to breathe in the water, but my throat started coughing it up for some reason....
