Into the woods.

Author's Note

The cover pic temporary until I Finnish the art for it, so it might be a bit so have fun with the pony generator Amanda.

Into the woods.

"I'm heading out for a walk!" I yell out to my boyfriend as I open the door.

"Ok, Just be back soon." He replies, walking out into the foyer.

"Don't worry." I say, pushing my golden hair out of the way. "Ill be back before you know it." I smile, looking into his hazel eyes.

"I wont worry. You're a capable woman, Amanda." He says, walking twords me. He rubs to back of his hand on my jawline. I put my hand over his.

"Thats good." I say, leaning in for a kiss. He pecks me on the lips and smiles.

"I love you, Amanda." He says softly, running his fingers down the red streak in my hair.

"I love you too, Byron." I say, moving his hand out of my hair. "Im going now." I step out of the door, blowing a kiss at him. He blows one back at me. I shut the door and begin walking down my street. The neighborhood is generally quiet, just a few dog barks here and there, a nice forest lining the neighborhood. "Huh." I say to myself, putting my hands in the pockets of my purple fall jacket. "The forest looks... Shiner today." I whisper, glancing into the forest. All the leaves have a slight silver tint to them, the bark under then have faint highlights of a metallic silver. I see a glimmer from under a bush, 40 feet into the forest.

I pull out my phone and check the time. 3:34 pm It reads. I sigh and look back at my house, pursing my lips. "I wont be that long..." I mumbles, walking swiftly twords the forest. I pass the initial brush of the forest, now about 30 feet from the glimmer. I continue walking twords it but it dosent seem to get any closer, untill finally im only mere steps from it. I look back from where I came and I gasp in shock. I can no longer see the roads from outside the forest. It must have been more than 40 feet. I shrug, reaching into the bush to take the shiny object, only to see it is a very metallic silver rock. "Trick of the light." I say, shoving the rock into my pocket. I turn back around, realizing that I don't know where I came from. It all looks the same.

I look around, trying to find out where I came from. But its useless. All the trees look the same. the leaves are all the same silver-green. The bark all has the same metallic silver highlights.

I hear faint voices. "hello?" I call out, hoping for someone to find me. "Is anyone there?" I call out again. The voices get a little louder. But inaudible. A heavy weight suddenly drops on my eyes, making me feel exhausted. "It can't hurt to sit, right?" I whisper, clearing some leaves off the ground from the trunk of a tree. I sit down, putting my back onto the tree. "I can just rest for a moment, then I can find my way back much easier." I lean my head back more into the tree, relaxing. The weight on my eyes gets heavier and heavier until they snap shut.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

My eyes snap back open what feels like just a few moments later. "Wha-" I say aloud, Looking around. I'm no longer in the forest. I seem to be in some kind of a... hedge maze. I get up, feeling shorter than normal. Im an average height woman, but I feel much shorter. I feel like im on my hands and knees so I try standing upright, but I lose my balance and fall backwards. "Oof." I sit back up. "what the hell?" I look down to see... Cream colored horse hooves with no horse shoes? I try raising my hand up, but a hoof raises instead. "Holy shit!" I scream out. I raise both my 'hands' up infront of my face, but instead I get hooves. Again. Suddenly I hear the sound of hooves hitting the ground as they run. Several white stallions hop out from one of the paths into the area im in, I scream again.

"Are you alright, miss?" One of them asks. I scream louder.

"YOU CAN TALK!?" I yell out, backing up while still on the ground.

"uh. Yes, Miss. I can. Now are you alright?" The same stallion asks, eyebrows raised.

"NO IM NOT ALRIGHT IM TALKING TO A TALKING HORSE. WORSE I AMA HORSE!" I scream out.

"M'am. We are ponies." Another Stallion says.

"OHOHOH THATS EVEN BETTER. WAIT WHAT THE FUCK IS ON YOUR HEAD?" I scream, pointing at one of their heads.

"That is my horn, miss. I am a unicorn. As are you." He says, Looking at his fellow hors- ponies.

"WHAT!?" I yell, reaching for my head only to feel a pointy object coming out of it. "OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO ME IN THAT FOREST!?" I pull down my bottom eyelids. "WHERE AM I!?" I demand to one of the stallions.

"You are in Canterlot, Equestria, Miss. Please stop yelling." One says, cringing at the sound of me yelling.

"EQUESTRIA-" I begin but am very rudely inturupted by the same guard.

"Miss." He says.

"Where in the world is Equestria!?" I yell out, quieter.

"It is-" He begins but another white hor-pony comes out.

He whispers something into another stallions ear, gesturing to me.

"Come with us." The other stallion says.

"Why?" I ask, moving back.

"Princess Celestia would like to speak with you." He says, other ponies making way for a path out of the hedge maze.

Regal Ruler

They shoved me into a large, narrow room with a red carpet leading to a regal looking throne. Upon that throne sat an even more regal looking white pony with a multi-colored flowing mane. "The hell!?" I yell out, trying to back up but the ponies behind me continue to push me forward.

"Should we stay?" One pony asks. "Uh, Princess." He adds.

The large pony eyes me, I gulp. "No." She says, nodding her head, signaling them to leave.

"Are you sur-" Another one asks but is stopped by the large pony.

"Yes. You may leave." She says, shutting her eyes.

"Yes. Your majesty." several of them say as they back out of the room, leaving just me and the large pony.

I look around. "Where am I?" I ask, fearing the answer.

"You are in my throne room." She says.

"Where is your throne room?" I ask, noticing the crown upon her head.

"In Canterlot. The capitol of Equestria." She says in a regal tone.

"Oh I get it now." I say, standing. "Im dreaming!" I say, smiling. "I must have fell asleep in that forest!" I say proudly.

"This is not a dream." She says. "You may ask my sister, Princess Luna."

"Why would I ask your sister..." I ask, forgetting what those ponies called her.

"You may address me as Princess Celestia." Celestia says. "You would ask my sister as she is the princess of the night. And she may walk through your dreams."

"Haha. Sure." I say, laughing. "If this is a dream then why dosen't this hurt-" I say, punching myself in the chest. I then grasp at my chest. "Ow!" I say, falling over.

"You act as if you know nothing of Equestria." Celestia says, eyeing me.

"I dont know anything of Equestria!" I yell out, frustrated.

"Do you come from another kingdom?" Celestia asks, "if so, why did you not say so to the guards?"

"I dont come from another kingdom..." I whisper. "I COME FROM ANOTHER WORLD!" I yell, furious now. "CAN YOU JUST PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON!?" I feel tears welling up. I never dealt with frustration well.

"Another world..." Celestia repeats. "What is the name of the world you come from?"

"EARTH!" I scream "I AM HUMAN!" I yell as the door burts open with armored white stallions racing in.

"Is everything alright, Princess?" One asks, nodding to me.

"Everything is quite alright." Celestia says, waving them away. "You may leave." She beckons me forward.

I walk forward as the doors slam shut, silence filling the room. "If what you say is true." Celestia begins "Then you are not the first one of whom this has happened to." She says, standing up. "Many years back, there was a young stallion found screaming within the castle grounds." She smiles softly as she walks twords a small door left of her throne. "A reaction similar to yours." Her horn lights up a faint yellow. "Come." She says.

"Where?" I ask her as I follow.

"Into my library." Celestia says as the door glows yellow and glides open. I hide my surprise.

"H-how did you do that?" I ask as I walk into the dim room, the only light coming from the door.

The door shuts and it becomes too dark to see. "Magic. You can do it too." Celestia says as her horn ignites, the room grows brighter as dark veils covering certain walls fold upwards, revealing stained glass windows high in the room. I gasp as I see the rows of bookshelves, reaching the extremely high to the roof. rows and rows of shelves, I cant even see the end of them. "I have a picture of him somewhere in a book with his letters." Celestia walks down a few rows of books.

"If... If you dont mind me asking, what happened to him?" I ask, following her down the aisle.

Celestia sighs. "Many years ago, even before the reign of Nightmare moo-" Celestia stops. "-My sister, we had him living in the castle. One day he retired to his room. When we went in to speak to him in the morning, he was gone." Celestia's face saddens as she floats a yellow book down from several stories up. "On his bed was a single silver stone." She sighs and opens the book. "Anyhow, here is the picture of him" A picture floats down to me. I lift my hoof and it lands on it. A yellow stallion laughing is on the image, his orange hair moved back.

"So... So he never got home? Er. Back to earth?" I ask, looking up at Celestia to see her reading notes within the yellow book.

Celestia sighs. "No. We don't think so." She shuts the book and instead of floating it to me, hands it to me with her hoof. "You may read it, if you would like."

"Okay..." I say.

"I haven't read it in years-" Celestia is interrupted by the door opening.

"Sister!" A strong voice echos out in the large library.

Glass Doors

"Sister, I came looking for you but the guards said you were in the throne room so when I went in and you you weren't there I presumed you to be in the library-" The voice stops as it reaches the aisle of books that we are in. The voice belongs to a tall deep blue mare with a anti-gravity looking mane as Celestia has. She shifts uncomfortably. "We did not know we had company." The mare says, her tone changing.

"Ah yes, Luna. This is..." Celestia trails off, realizing I never said my name. She looks at me.

"Uh." I say. "My name is Amanda Honey." I cringe a little at my middle name that ive adopted as a secondary name for god knows what reason.

"Amanda Honey." Celestia repeats. "This is my sister, Princess Luna." She gestures twords me.

"Hello." Luna says in a stiff voice.

"Luna you remember Ethan, correct?" Celestia asks her sister, continuing to read through the yellow book.

"Yes." Luna says, looking away.

"Whos Ethan...?" I ask, looking up at Celestia.

"The stallion upon the picture." Celestia says, not looking away from the book.

"What does Ethan have to do with anything?" Luna asks in a stiff voice, clearly uncomfortable.

"Ah well you see." Celestia says, either ignoring or not noticing her sisters uncomfortable attitude. "Amanda Honey here is also human." Celestia lightly shuts the book with her magic. "was a human." She adds.

Luna's eyes light up slightly, then dim once more. "Interesting." Luna says, turning the other way. "I must prepare for the moon to rise." She says, walking away.

"Ah yes, I must as well." Celestia says, floating the book down to me. "You may read through it, if you would like." Celestia begins to walk away.

"Er... Why do you have to prepare for sunset?" I ask, following her.

"Luna and I control the sun and moon, raising them." Celestia says, approaching the door.

"They don't move on their own?" I ask, baffled.

"It must be confusing for a human to take that in, but yes." Celestia opens the door and steps out.

"Oh." I say, also stepping out, the door closing behind me. "This may sound blunt but." I say following Celestia. "Where am I to sleep tonight?" I ask her.

"In a castle room, of course." Celestia says, nearing the exit of the throne room. "We will pass it on the way to my room. This is of course untill you are well adjusted and prepared to move out into say Canterlot, Ponyville or such." She adds.

I ignore the weird names. "Oh." I say, exiting the throne room, doors once again shutting behind me. I suddenly realize I left the book in the library, in a fit of panic I turn around to see it floating behind me. Not engulfed in yellow, but covered by a green blue. I look up to see my horn thing glowing the same color. "Huh?" I say, stopping in the halls.

Celestia stops and turns around. "Oh. Very impressive. It takes most unicorns years to finally master levitation. You must be talented." She says, turning back around and continues to walk. I shake my head and try to ignore it. "Here we are." Celestia says as she stops infront of a door along the hall. Plenty of other doors also line the halls, looking no different. The door glides open and I look inside.

"Wow." I say, the room has a large bed, the frame painted gold... Or it is real gold I can't tell. A gold nightstand sits beside the bed, holding a small lamp, a large window opens up to a glass door, leading to a small balcony. Beautiful tapestries line the walls of two ponies, On white with a pink mane and a horn and wings, the other is a dark one with similar features, but a blue mane.

"Yes well. I must go now to lower the sun. We will have a servant call upon you in the morning for breakfast, we may discuss more there." Celestia says as she nods her head. "Have a good nights rest." She says as she walks out, closing the doors.

I rest upon my bed, shutting my eyes. How in the world did this happen? Its almost like...magic. I think to myself, then I smack my forehead. There is magic in this world, duh. I lay on my back, staring up at the high ceiling. I begin to feel bored shortly, and defenetly not tired enough to sleep. I look around to see a bookshelf I didn't notice earlier, it sits near the glass door. I turn my head to face the other way and feel like kicking myself. I missed another door that appears to lead into a bathroom. I get up and decide to examine my new... form? I cringe alittle. The door is cracked open so I just lightly push it and it glides open. I step inside to see a golden bathtub, a gold and white counter sink, towels, toilet. Everything seems to be gold and white centric.

Above the sink is a large gold rimmed mirror. I look at myself in it. I'm a cream colored mare, I retained my golden hair, however with more red in it than before, my eyes are still green, but when I look at my... Butt? Flank? Yeah, Flank. I see a small pencil. "Huh?" I cock my head. On Celestia's flank there was a sun, and on Luna's a moon. "I can just ask about it in the morning." I say to myself, walking out of the bathroom. From the enormous window surrounding the glass door I can see the light fading from the sky. I decide to watch the event. I walk over to the door and lightly push it open, the glass so thin I feel as though it might break. I step out onto the balcony and look up at the sky, the moon rising. I see it come to a stop and feel disappointed that I missed most of it. I look down to see a large garden with a stone path leading past a wood and dark grey metal lining it. Upon that bench rests a dark blue mare, her horn a fading glow. Its Luna, I relize.

Maybe I should go talk with her. I step back inside my room, closing the glass door behind myself. I walk to the other door and push it open, stepping out. The door closes as I walk down the halls, heading in the direction of the garden, hoping it will lead to and exit. Eventually after descending plenty of stair sets, I come to a huge glass door, moon light shining through. It looks so fragile, I dont want to touch it inscase it breaks. I focus on the door, Maybe my magic will work. Nope. I sigh and shut my eyes, getting annoyed, when I open my eyes the door is gliding open, glowing a green color.

I look up to my forehead, however my horn isint glowing, I turn behind me to see a navy blue stallion in gold armor smiling at me, his horn ignited. "O-oh. Thank you." I say, nodding my head to him.

"No problem..." He says.

"Amanda Honey." I say, finnishing his sentence.

"Ah yes, The one who was found in the maze, right?" He asks, slightly smirking.

I blush alittle. "Uh, yeah." I say sheepishly.

"Ah well, maybe we will have more time to talk later?" He says in a questioning tone.

"Y-yeah." I say, smiling as I walk out the door backwards.

"Untill next time." He says, shutting the door.

"W-wait!" I try saying before the door closes, but by the time I finnish its shut and hes walking away. "Whats your name...?" I whisper quietly, turning to face the stone path.

Lunar Garden

I walk quietly down the path, trying to not make any noise. I turn a corner of bushes to see Luna laying on the bench, facing away from me. I open my mouth to speak, but am beaten to it. "Who goes there?" I hear Luna's regal voice call out, I freeze.

"A-amanda Honey." I say, taking a step forward.

"What do you want?" Luna asks me, turning to face me.

"I uh, I was looking out the balcony and I saw the garden and you and I thought I should come down and talk to you." I say, "You looked lonely."

"We are not lonely." Luna turns her head away from me.

"Mind if I sit?" I ask, motioning to the bench. Luna looks at me and looks away, saying nothing. I take that as a yes so I sit down beside her.

"We wonder why you sit like that." Luna says, looking over at me. I look down and realize that im sitting as if I was a human, Luna is laying on the bench. It explains why the bench is so long.

"Its, uh. Its how humans sit." I say, looking at her. "Why do you talk like that, Like you're more than one pers- Pony?" I ask. "I heard you talking normally before you saw me."

"It is the royal Canterlot voice. We use it too our subjects." Luna says, looking away again

"I'm not technically a subject." I say, looking to her.

"Hmph" I hear Luna say lightly. She turns to face me. "You have our interest."

"Oh-" I say, surprised. "Your interest with what?"

"You." Luna says, looking at me. "Tell us about yourself."

"Oh, uh." I say, not sure where to start. "My name is Amanda Honey, I am 24 years old and live with my boyfriend."

"Tell us about what happened before you came to Equestria." Luna says, looking interested.

"I was walking one day when I passed by the forest, the trees and everything looked so... Silver. Then I saw something shine a little deeper into the forest." I say, looking down. "I told myself it wouldent take long. I said to myself that I'd be back soon." I look up at the night sky. "The shine was deeper into the forest than I thought, Because when I turned around near the shine, I coulden't see where the forest ended. It all looked the same." I look over to Luna "I picked up the shine and saw it was just a shimmering stone." I sigh. "I shoved it into my pocket, trying to think of a way out of the forest, when I started to hear faint voices." I look down at my hoof. "I suddenly grew tired and rested at the base of a tree, The voices got louder, and I got tireder. I shut my eyes, and when I opened them I was in the maze." I say, looking back at Luna.

"Fascinating. No wonder you screamed." Luna chuckles "Or so ive heard."

"You didin't say 'we've'" I say.

"I didin't?" Luna cocks her head, clearly knowledgeable of her speech.

"Am I no longer a subject to you?" I say as I laugh a little.

"I assume not." Luna smiles, looking to the ground.

We must have talked for over an hour. Luna told me about her becoming Nightmare Moon, she told me of the elements of harmony, she told me of their current bearers. She told me of Equestria's history. She told me about herself.

"Luna." I say, looking off into the distance.

"Yes?" She replies, laughing a little.

"Why were you out here?" I ask, looking to her.

"Ah." Luna sighs. "I was appreciating the Lunar Garden."

"The Lunar Garden?" I ask.

"Yes. You see durring the day, this garden contains bright, yellow, white, light flowers, bushes appear to be lighter. That is the Solar Garden." Luna looks at a near by flower. "When the sun sets the solar flowers become lunar flowers, the bushes become darker, and everything changes." Her horn ignites and lifts the flower off of its stem, it floats twords her. "It is truly sad as no one comes to visit the Lunar Garden, Just me." She smells the flower. The center of the flower is a glowing white bulb, surrounded by dark blue thick petals.

"Oh." I say, yawning. "I can visit with you."

Luna smiles. "Ah but surely once you see the Solar Garden, you will prefer that to this."

"we'll see." I say, yawning again.

"Right." Luna looks up to the moon. "it is well past midnight, you should get some sleep." Luna says, getting up. "Come." She says, walking to the castle. I get up groggily and follow her. We approach the large glass door, I speed up a little, just barely ahead of Luna. I shut my eyes as I yawn, still walking when I suddenly stop. I hit something.

I hear Luna laughing faintly. I must have hit a wall, whatever I hit was hard and solid. I open my eyes and gasp. It was the glass door. "How did that not break!?" I ask Luna, Amazed.

"Magic." Luna says, opening the door with her magic. "That and strong glass." She giggles as she walks into the castle, the door staying open, waiting for me to enter.

Author's Note

Ooooo Lunar Gardens am I rite or am I rite. Yeah so this chapter took me alittle longer to finnish because im just lazy, cut me some slack.

A Magical Breakfast.

I wake up in the morning, looking around. I see its light out so I decide to see the Solar Garden. I step out of my bed and walk over to the glass door, nudging it open. The Solar Garden radiates a certain brightness. The once white-blue flowers are now a white bulb surrounded by yellow petals. The bushes glow a faint yellow. I can see why Luna might think I would like this better.

But its too bright.

It shines too much in my opinion, I think the dull, mysteriousness of the Lunar garden is much more intriguing than the Bright, welcoming air of the Solar garden is. I should tell Luna that. Maybe it will make her happy. I mean she always looks so... Alone. Like shes the last kid picked for kick ball or something. And it makes me want to help her, to tell her she'll one day be picked first. But I don't know why. I hear my stomach growl, telling me its way past the point where I should have eaten. It also dosen't help that I didin't eat dinner. Oh god. Byron must be having a fit about where I am. I need to get back to him, asap.

I trot outside my door, and I get a dropping feeling in my stomach. I have no clue where the fuck im supposed to go. Like, what way is the dinning hall, or whatever its called? Ok, heres a plan, I'm going to just walk until I find someone. Perfection, yes this will work just fine. I walk down the halls for what seems like ages, and at that point, I am bored as hell. My eyes start drifting shut as I continue to walk. Then BAM. I run right into something. It felt like a wall. I fall to the ground and look up to see what I hit. "Oh." I whisper softly "Its you." I say, recognizing this pony. Its the guard who opened the door for me last night. My head swims from the impact, slightly dizzy.

"You aswell. Amanda, correct?" He asks, extending his hoof out. I take it.

"Uh, yeah." I say, using his extended hoof to help me up. "Do you know what way the dinning hall is?" I ask him.

"The dinning hall? Right. Its just down this hall." He nods his head behind him. I knew my plan was perfection.

"Thanks." I say, starting off in that direction.

"Wait." He calls back out to me. "Would you like me to escort you there?" He asks, cocking his head to the side.

"Uh, No. I think I'll be fine." I say, continuing to walk down the hall. I hear his hoof steps going in the opposite direction and instantly feel bad for saying no. I shrug off the feeling and walk untill I reach a grand door. Taking my chances, I nudge it open. "Hello?" I call out, hearing my voice echo in the large room, the door still obstracting my view.

"Amanda?" I hear a regal voice call out, yet still in a motherly tone. "I welcome you to our dinning hall." Celestia says. I can now see the room fully, the door opened. Its a high room, with plenty of windows so high up, beautiful curtains drape down from them. A very long table reaches down the center of the large, narrow room. Probably reaching about 20 meters in length, yet only about 5-7 meters in with. Celestia sits on one side of the table, a smile on her face, I turn a little to see Luna sitting opposite from her, looking down at the table. "Come sit. Breakfast will be served shortly." Celestia's horn lights up and a glowing yellow chair glides out of its spot at the front of the table. I walk twords it and sit down in it, Celestia and Luna sitting opposite right infront of me. "I assume you found your way here to be okay?" Celestia asks, looking to me.

"Uh. yeah. I guess." I say, not meeting her gaze.

"I presume you are hungry?" Celestia asks.

"Quite." I respond.

Celestia solomly nods her head and plates appear infront of Celestia, Luna and I. Food appears upon them, one by one. Then a cup pops into existence, orange liquid filling its capacities. Berries line the plate with eggs in the center. Perfectly cooked toast sits on the edge of the pale yellow oval plate. "Thank you." I say, reaching forward to grab a newly materialized fork. I place my hoof over it, and lift my hoof. But the fork dosen't follow.

"Use your magic." Luna says before she shovels a spoon full of berries into her mouth.

I focus on the fork, putting all my energy into the fork. Glaring at the fork. Willing the fork to move. After 30 seconds of an intense stare off with the fork, I give up and sigh. I look up at Luna and Celestia, but they are both gazing behind me. "Why are you-" I say before I turn to look, then stop.

Rugs and candles float, glowing. Curtains try to pull themselves away from their poles. I stare at the floating objects for just one moment before they all drop. The rugs fold over themselves, the candles dropping and the curtains relaxing. I look back over to Celestia and Luna who look to me. "Perhaps you should just eat with no utensils." Luna suggests, shrugging. Celestia nods her head, going back to her plate of food. I sigh and look down at my plate. Then shove my face into it.
