Chapter 3: The Dark Depths

It was spreading like wildfire. Everypony was talking about it, even the princess. Laying in the hospital was my only option (my ribs were not completely healed) and eating mashed pea’s… great. I nudged myself towards the window to look at the dark gloomy sky filled with bright stars. A knock on the door startled me, in came the same pony that saved my life. The colt sat down next to my bed and brought some flowers,

“Sheesh before you try to fight a freaking monster have some help beside you, the names Black Eclipse, you?” the entire time I was looking up. My head turns to his direction,

“My name is Trexx… that’s it.” He throws a giant chuckle. I explained to him about my problem but after I mention what the creatures say he moves away from me,

“Hey Trexx, that’s some freaky shit” I nod… it was strange.

After a while of exchanging stories (I never knew he was such a I-am-awesome type of pony.) the nurse came in my room to tell me that visitors had to leave at this hour, “just a few more minutes” I asked her. She nodded and closed the door. I caught Black Eclipse looking at something and decided to follow his eyes. Apparently there was a rug just under my bed (I never noticed) but the rug had an unusual bump at the bottom, it would seem that the rug was hiding something underneath it. Me and Eclipse had the same idea and asked him to lift up the rug. He walked towards it and did as he was told but upon lifting the rug was a trapdoor.

“Well, well, well” Eclipse exclaimed in a smile. “I never knew the hospital had a buckin trap door in one of their rooms!” neither did I in fact, the way I remembered, the rug was never even there. Eclipse opened the hatchet and before us was a deep dark hole.

Getting out of my bed Eclipse quickly runs up to me but I signal him it that I was okay, “It’s alright”, I tell him “I’d rather go on to an adventure than lay in bed eating some abnormal food,

Eclipse nodded “Also Trexx from now on I am by your side from now on until this mystery ends.” I wanted to tell him no but right before I said something Eclipse lifted his hoof up “It’s ok, I got nothing better to do myself so going on this mystery will be fun!” he smiled a smile that was impossible to say no to, so I nodded and signaled him to jump at three.

“One… two… three!” we both jumped into the pit that was surprisingly small but still kind of hurt. We both got up and brushed ourselves. The pit was actually a long hall that seemed it would go on forever. As we began to proceed towards the long room Eclipse turned around and found out that the hole where we jumped into was gone, he looked at me with a paranoid expression, so I told him the truth.

“The trapdoor and rug was actually never there in the first place.” Eclipse nods and stops in his tracks. His expression seemed like he saw a ghost so I turn as well to notice that the hall lured us into a room with one coffin that stands in the middle. The room had an octagon shape and the coffin looked fresh but as soon as I proceeded to open it the coffin opened itself. Out of the coffin stood a tall white pony with no eyes or snout (except a long stitched smile) that began to open. The stitched mouth was beginning to rip open because of blood leaking out of it. A loud scream echoed the hallways as the creature flung towards us at full speed when suddenly everything turned black and I fell unconscious on my back. I heard kicking and yelping while blood was splashing on the ground. Suddenly I heard someone whisper “Oh…it’s you”.
