Present, Ponyville

As I laid in the ditch, I kept thinking about how this happened. A broken wing? A broken leg? How did I even get this far?

6 Hours Ago, Changeling Kingdom

I've been here for a few weeks now, and It hadn't gotten any easier. I don't remember anything, all I can remember is my name, Ender.

The rest of the ponies that were In the cell with me started disappearing one at a time about one or two weeks ago. I know that I'm next as I'm the last one here, but I have a plan to escape.

Present, Ponyville

I still can't believe that I escaped! But If I don't get help soon.... no, I don't want to think about it.

6 Hours Ago: Changeling Kingdom

I've got everything I need to escape now, but I don't know when they are coming for me.

I must put my plan in motion now.

4 hours later

I got the final touches in place as I heard the guards coming.

I'm out of time!

I threw the home made rope up through the hole in the ceiling and I got it hooked the first try!

I started to climb, getting prepared for phase 2 of my plan along the way.

Then I heard yelling In a language that I didn't understand.

Buck! They're on to me!

I began to climb faster, but before I got up, something heavy hit my leg and broke it in the process.

"AH!" I yelped.

I climbed up the rest of the rope and pulled myself through the hole.

I have a broken leg, but I'm finally free!

I extended my wings to fly, when I heard them yelling.

They were climbing after me!

I used my makeshift knife to cut the rope. It took a few slashes, but I cut it.

I left the knife on the ground and flew away.

Present, Ponyville

Just when I was starting to think this is how I was going to die, I heard somepony talking.

With as much power I could muster, I yelled "Help!" in hope of somepony hearing me.

The talking stopped abruptly.

4 Hours Ago, Somewhere near the Everfree

I didn't even make it to the Everfree Forest when they caught up to me.

A little farther, I thought to myself, just a little farther.

I didn't know where I was going, but I had a feeling that there was a of town close to here.

I ended up being right.

Ponyville, I thought

Wait, how did I know the name of the town?

Just as I was about there, they shot something at my right wing.

I fell into the Everfree.

A few hours later

"I think I lost them." I said to myself.

I continued to drag myself along. I would be flying if not for those things. However, my Wing broke in the fall.

Present, Ponyville

"Did you hear that?" I heard somepony say.

"Yea, I did," another one said, "I think it came from over there.".

Just before I passed out, I saw a lavender unicorn and an orange earth pony look into the ditch I was in.

I blacked out
