Chapter 1:what have i done...
by: the forgotten memory
After a long crazy day you thought it be high time you had some rest so you jumped into bed and fell fast asleep. You open your eyes to find out that you are in the middle of nowhere. Forever lost in the vacuum of space, time and matter itself with an illuminating 12in tall layer of white fog from the floor of the void which was loosely kept together by the fabric of reality. Scared and confused you did what any other normal person would ever do in your situation which would be to find a way out of this mysterious dark abyss and back home. You spend hours, and even days searching for a way out, but, sadly there was none to be seen. You then accept your fate of being forever condemned to the void and the darkness that it holds within. To die of starvation, dehydration, insanity or even by time it though as you accepted your fate of ultimately meeting death itself. You then started to hear a strange mechanical sound. The sound grew louder as it came closer and closer to the illuminating fog that was around your legs. You were unsure, even terrified of what could be lurking within the darkness of the void. Though you thought to yourself that it could be a creature of unholy and untold power or even something far worse than what your mind could have even imagine or ever dare comprehend. The mechanical clanking sound grew more rapid and even louder until you saw a six and a half foot tall light tannish skinned cybernetic pony like creature with a mane and tail that was nearly was as black as the darkness filled void around you. Though you were able see it because of its jagged, golden and lighting like highlight that was on bottom its mane and widely horizontally striped throughout its tail which was long enough to touch the top of fog layer. You then looked at neck which the pony had a white iron bandages that were loosely and unevenly wrapped inches away from the first layer which was below the mouth all the way until it reached the top of its chest. Which had a pound the left side of its chest was a bulletproof glass window that was held in place by a golden band that were bolted down to his skin. When you looked into the glass window you were able to see its beating heart which was made of solid 24k gold. Then you looked at all of its hooves and you noticed that all of them except for its left hoof which was made of solid iron looked like it was made of some type of spruce wood like metal. Held together by the same golden bands that were bolted down on his skin that held the bulletproof window in front of its heart. The pony was surprised to find you or anything for that matter in this place. It comes i up and transforming the bottom of his left hoof into a human hand. he then shakes your hand with it. After doing so the pony turns it back to normal and sets it back onto the fog cover void floor.)
???:Oh! Why hello there. (Smiles)How did you get in here?
(You were a tad bit scared though you did told him that you had no clue how you came to this realm nor even a way to escape this dark abyss)
???: (the ponys eyes widen a tad bit surprised) really!? (You nodded) hmm…(It slowly look to the left and right of you. After which the pony like creature looks right back at you with a curious look on its face as it immediately returning Its attention back towards you ) hmm...Interesting every Interesting indeed but nevertheless I should probably get you out of here. This place can kill your sanity pretty quickly if you're left alone that is. (You smile with joy hoping that this ponies words where of the true. For you were at the point that you were willing to give you soul away to be reunited with your loved ones)This place does get kind of creepy after being here for a long period of time and it tends to drives people and ponies alike insane. Unless~ (he put his left hoof on his chin and looks diagonally to the left. Then you notice that his right eye was robotic and of pony origin and again looks back at you) you can keep your mind occupied then~ (he looks back at you. Then you notice that the left eye looked somewhat looked like to be of a humans eye but a tad bit modify it to fit the ponies head) will could stay here for pretty long time. Well as long as you can live without food, water or friends that is. Speaking of that I heard you running and screaming throughout my pockets Dimensional storage unit. hehehe and you were acting like a complete baby. Heck i nearly saw you put on a diaper and then started pooping in it which made things start to get a bit weird though luckily for you (points at you with a with a smirk on its face) you put yourself back together and actually started acting like a normal human being (laughs at you for a couple of minutes then stops) though never the less i thought you might be thirsty so I packed a barrel of cranberry juice with me.
(The cyber pony reaches into a pocket that was on the top of its left back leg which had a strange looking mark on it.)
???: oh come i know i packed that bloody thing in here (the pony shoves his left mechanical hoof deeper into the pocket becoming a tad bit frustrated on being unable to locate when the pony is searching for) what the clop!? Oh sweet Celestia I bloody know I put the container in here where the clop is it?!
(He shoves entire hand into the pocket as he did that you ask what that strange mark that was on its pocket was? as well as what did it mean?Though he didn’t respond for he was too focused on the container which it had packed in its pocket to truly pay attention to you or what you are saying. After a couple minutes of searching with its hoof the cyber pony literally put its own head inside of his pocket and a half an hour of fidgeting with in his pocket which you thought was very weird and out of place at the time. Though you realize you are in a pocket dimension there really wasn't anything that can truly surprise you anymore. When look back at the cybernetic pony it emerged out of its pocket with a barrel like container within his iron hoof which had been turned into a hand to hold the container which was raised high into the air)
???:there it's bloody is! I know I packed that freaking thing in there.(the pony begins to shake the container as it spoked.) Also I know what you're somewhat thinking why am i searching within my pocket if we are in my pocket right? (You nodded again) well the thing is that I sort living creatures from nonliving objects. For example if I were to put a rock in my pocket it would go into the non-living category because it is not moving breathing or trying to make something happen.Though you on the other hand can and could do that stuff.so you'd go into the “living creature” category of my pocket’s dimensional storage unit. Which you can tell is very vacant until now that is
(The pony stops shaking the container and gives it to you.then turns his front right into a human hand and pulls out a foldable chair, unfolds it, and places it behind you. Then returns to where you had stood in front of you performing a backflips.while perfectly landing into a red, black, white, gold, super comfortable, and luxurious recliner with built in cup holders appears instantly out of nowhere. You were jealous about how he was in a luxurious recliner and you get a crappy chair. though not because it appeared out of nowhere. Then again you did came to terms that you were in a ponies pocket which contained in pocket Dimension where the laws of physics do not apply.so you accepted the drink and began drinking some of the juice which was inside the container. It tasted quite bitter at first but as you continue to drink it became sweeter and strangely enough it tasted very familiar to the fruit back on your world.)
???: Hey buddy (pause in concern but speaks its mind anyway.) do you...Do you want to hear a story? It's not like those other story it’s a very unique one. It’s differently not like those (Speaks in a sarcastically smug tone swaying its iron hoof left to right as the strange pony rolls its eyes) “once upon time” bullshit stories that always have a happy ending (Then it stops and looks right back at you)fuck that! Look dude this book needs to be told though it’s your choice to listen or ignore it
(You then stopped drinking the juice and laid it on your lap your hand still holding onto it. Becoming quite curious upon what story could be more important than freedom but then you thought about it and if this pony got in here it could probably get you out so you said yes. The mechanical pony pulls out a very old, thick, hardcover red leather book, it had a gold trimming on the very edges of its hard cover and its paper look like it was made of solid gold from a pocket a its butt near its tall and then hands it to you.it illuminated mystical light as it began to float in the air the book. there was a lot amount of dust on the book you could barely make out what the title was trying to say then the book began to spin and quickly stopped then fall into your hands. You inhaled some of the dusty air and you started to cough.)
???:sorry about the (coughs from the dusty air)dust i had that book hidden away for 8 years.(coughs again)and i thought i would remind myself of my past life and mistakes before you had come.(coughs one last one as he transforms bottom part of his left hoof into a fan and blow the dusty air away. Then turns his left hoof back to normal)there we go that’s much better.
(then you able see the book as it clean as a whistle. and you looked and saw the name of the book the Artistically Crafted Journey by Mark Miner Mercado)
Mark: Oh waithow rude of me I forgot to introduce myself. Hello there my name is Mark Miner Mercado and I am a 26 year old cybernetic earth pony and this book is my past, my presents and possibly my future. this book never stops writing even as we speak it continues to write my history, my legacy and everything I've done. Within the three realms I have been through Minecraft and Equestria. I once was a human like you happy joyful but that all went crashing down as my own dark deeds took my mind away(he became silent for a couple for seconds before continuing to speak) i-it took my family and everyone i loved away. (Sighs in a sadden tone) Nevertheless you probably are being full of questions needing answers. Well that book is here to answer those questions. I must warn you this book is very powerful because it will project you in the background allowing you to see everything that I've done.as if you ghost to the worlds around unable to be heard seen or viewed upon once you open to the first page.so heed this warning answer with caution. For once you start reading and viewing my mind it will not stop until you finish it and see it to the end. So what you wish to continue
(you nodded and open the book to the very first page.the book flew high into the sky, then it begins to spin at a ridiculous speed until it formed a mystical sphere . After which it fires a beam of light into your eyes that began telling you my untold origins and horrible. so the story had begun would begin the reading of the artistically crafted. When you closed and opened your eyes again you still were in the middle of nowhere forever lost in the vacuum of space, time and matter itself but this time you saw another human lying black of the void. Depressed and crying. You did try to go to him but some strange force stop you from getting six feet from him)
Mark: (sighed feeling hopeless and depressed) what am I (begins to cry) just simply what the fuck am I! (Slams his fist onto the pocket dimensions foggy black void floor as i continue to cry) What am I supposed to do with this life of mine but really who am I supposed to be! (Smashes his fist into the pocket dimensions foggy black void floor as i continue to cry) an 18 year old teenage child whose legacy and family are his primary source of life and his reason to live…Or a 26-year-old cybernetic. Stallion whose legacy is of the kingdom that he had built to raise the family he created. Who am…am I strongly supposed to be a human or a stallion (sights in irritation constantly crying but becoming angrier with himself) a king or an artist why why can't I live my life happily.(He gets even more angry with himself as he ongoing cries of pain) when will there be a day that-(smashes his hands 5 inches into the ground in rage)that i can one life without the need to sacrifice another! (He collapse crying, kneeling with his jeans and his forehead slammed on the pocket dimensions foggy black void floor) When will there be day I can live happily ever after without sacrificing what I love. I love my five kids and wife but I don't want to lose them. I've given my soul, my bones, my heart I've given everything up and this is what life do I live. Why do I have to pay for the price I'm having the most joyful is memories in my life. Well what I have a life(i curled up into a ball and my tears began to grow more as i thought through what i have to choses to become)
(Meanwhile my artistically crafted Sister Rosetta rose comes over to me to check on me when she finds crying in my own tiny puddle of tears. She instantly run straight towards me hugging me tightly)
Rozetta:Everything’s going to be ok mark (stops and stutters for a while as Rozetta was trying to continue)e-everything’s g-going t-to b-be alright
She tighter as Rozetta knew that nothing was going to the same but Rozetta kept on saying those few words while hugging me hoping this would ease my burden.though sadly it wasn't enough to even make a mark on the amount of pain in my heart, soul and mind was too great for even i was able to bare.thus i continue to cry and cry for hours without end. In time Rozetta had joined in crying bloody tears. For for they had suffered through the mental, physical, spiritual pain of 26 years in three worlds.have ender there living nightmares, past sins, and darkened memories that i would have dead to forget.as well as beautiful dreams, joyful memories, and loving, caring friends and families pain. through i and only i had to make choose one of them was going to live in my mind while the other dies and be forgotten in time.5 hours had passed and where is that a few words were getting quite irritating to the point that I pushed her away and pinned her to the floor of the void and smack your face then started to yell at her.)
Mark: what the fuck is wrong with you! I'm asking you this now because as you can tell my life is a pretty fucked up moment! due to the fact that I have to decide which one of the two world I love with my life has to die and you lying to me that everything is going to be alright is not helping me at all whatsoever! So tell me my sweet darling sister why the fuck are you lying to me what the fuck is wrong with you!? You're better than that you! are so fucking better than that!
Rozetta:(Started to yell at him back but louder) well I’m fucking sorry for trying to make you happy or at least trying to do what you made me to fucking do!(she got louder) which was and fucking still is to keep you from being like fucking this! I'm sorry I can't do shit! I'm sorry this is all i can fucking I could do was come for you what would you made me to do be people senseless and help you through your problems. This is the one problem I can't do shit about. Ok! (Silence filled the air for a couple minutes) you fucking hear me mark! I'm fucking sorry! I'm sorry that I'm failing to do my job!
(She instantly break free of my grip been kicked me in the stomach which threw me into a couple feet into the air. falling back down a couple feet away from her. My sister's powerful blow did a number on me but it wasn't enough from keeping me on the floor though the emotions that she had shared and thought she had said did. I laid there silently thinking feeling of what I've become what it felt like had truly become...a monster. Rosetta was worried that she had kicked me too hard an injured me. Rozetta saw some of the black void floor fog start to turn pure white to void black began consuming me. Bringing me until the floor began dragging you into it. Rushing quickly try to pull me out of the voids floor but it was too late I had already been consumed by the darkness of the void. an hour at the past my sister was crying on the floor where I was consumed by the void darkness. Then a creature of unknown origin from the pocket dimensions void floor and spoken in my voice)
???: hey sister stop crying already I'm okay. I'm right behind you silly. Come on over and give me a hug you big lug
(She quickly turned around hoping that I was okay but sadly that voice that she heard was a lie. What she saw was a creature of pure evil, In evil that no even Rosetta would never dare to touch. Covered in the darkness of the void with a red eyes)
Rozetta :( she stared at it showing only her angry for it) no you’re not mark(she lifts her left pointing at the monster full of anger) you're the cause of all this mother fucking bullshit! you are the monster within him!
(Then the creature began to speak in a dark sinister and a hollowed tone creped out Rozetta for a couple of minutes before she resumed giving every inch of her anger and hatred towards it )
???:(it begins giving rozetta very slow clap while speaking in a sarcastically smug tone) well~ well~ well~ I never thought I'd get to see you again(pulls off a fake frown) don't you miss me?
Rozetta: Why would I be happy to see you! If you're the cause of all this motherfucking bullshitty mess! You ruined me and my brother's life and took everything away from him!
???: (He stops slow clapping her but still speaking in a smug tone) oh is that so well this mess (it points to itself) created you and is the recorder of everything you and mark has done! (its in quickly calms down trying to keep its cool and returns back to its smug tone) so you really should be thanking me for letting be in this world
Rozetta: motherfuck you! (Gives the monster a nice big middle finger with her left hand) I rather burn in hell with my left fist shove my own ass and my head cut off and server on a silver platter then even say hi to fucking you!
???: awww oh stop you're making me blush
Rozetta: fuck you! Fuck you! (Gives the monster a nice big middle finger with her left and right hand) motherfuck you! (her hair started to burst and flow like an infernal fire that can never be put out her eyes grew bright blood red with flames radiating out of them) you're the one that caused all this misery, all this pain, all the suffering, and every inch of mental,physical and spiritual torture you have caused to Mark all because of you! I rather see you rot in the darkest depths of hell than let you live in this realm or any other!
???: (It begins walking up to her smirking) Awww you're so sweet and the funny bit is this is the point where I'm supposed to kill you but why bother. I mean seriously why bother killing you if you're just going to be brought back in another world. You are just a small fraction of what Mark truly hides. You are the anger and hatred frustration and irritation while I am everything else including you. Also you know what’s kind of funny you and I are not that very different. We are both mark we are both made for specific purpose and both of us were made to kill hehehe.
Rozetta: (she sighs and irritation knowing that the creature was someone right) you are right about two things... Yes we are a big part of mark's mind but that's where the similarities meet their end. For I am NOT made to kill unlike you how thrives on. For I was made to protect the ones I love and actually care for aka mark you were only made to store the knowledge that he gains. Also I don't need the darkness of the void to sustain a physical for unlike you
(The creature began to feel an unbearable amount of pain and began screaming in agony)
Rozetta :( Sighs and begins to walk around the weakened monster smirking as she speaks in a smug tone)and my best guess. (She paused and stands to the left of him for a couple of seconds before continuing to walk around the weakened monster smirking)The darkness of the void once you to kill mark not me. Though you know as well as I know that if you Kill mark not only thing you kill me but you kill yourself in the process. The in order for you to do that you have to kill me because I hold the other half of marks soul.Which is the other half of you
(The creatures started withering away no longer able to sustain its form)
Rozetta: and lastly you know you cannot keep mark in prison with in your own nightmare you've created for him. So with that being said I bid you adieu... forgotten memory.
(She smirks as she watches the creature wither away and finally seeing that I was imprisoned in the fog of the void though now was free from its control. My body collapsed on the floor and five minutes later I awoke and accidentally punching my sister in the jaw. She then give me one powerful pimp slap to the face right after giving me a massive bear hug. We continue to hug for what if I was about 5 minutes it felt like hours had passed by we really couldn't tell time within this place. She tells me what it happens to me. She also what came out to say hi. When i heard the news I was shocked to find something buried away within me able to come out into this realm. When we began thinking of other ways to save both worlds. We kept on thinking of plans and strategies sadly they all left to the death of both worlds so we finally decided on 1 idea.)
Rozetta: are you sure you want to go through that we live all of that are you really sure?
Mark:(I thought about it for a little bit and made up my mind)yes...we went through millions of strategies and possible ideas and all of them ending up in failure.so( sighs looking up on the floor of the void saddened though acknowledging knowing what he had must do) if I'm going to make up my finally decision I might as well we live the life that got me to this point today let's go find the “Realty Watcher” and put an end to all this once and for all
(i get up an off the black floor of the void)
Rozetta: sights and sadness alright Mark let's go let's put this to an end once and for all… (She get up an off the black floor of the void as well standing right next)let look to the past to help us makes better...i hope
(so we walked over to the garden of all of reality watcher Almighty God of unknown origin unbelievable unlimited power and I asked before I make my final decision that I review my past from the beginning to the bitter end. he happily obliged and some of the mystical construct allowing me to view my past, present and future.an so it began to play my history...my legacy...my artistically crafted journey)
