Off The Trailby RazzarTGChaptersCrashBruisingRecoveryCutsCrashPain. We've all felt pain in our life. Physical and emotional. Pain is our guide. It tells us what is wrong and bad. It punishes us and alerts us when we go against it. Its a safety mechanism to us. Its what I like to think brought me back. As I drift in my subconscious I feel a sharp, but somewhat pleasant burning sensation on my leg. As I become more aware of this though, it gets hotter, hotter, and hotter. Now it is equivalent to the feeling of accidentally putting your hand on a open stove. You've all done that right? My eyes shoot open, but are greeted by dirt. Still in great pain from the now smoldering fire on my leg, I try to escape the now apparent heat. panick takes over me as I try to get the dirt out of my eyes, to only come to the understanding that my dirt bike goggles where on, along with all my other gear. Leg is now in intense and unbearable pain. Quickly removing the goggles and helmet attached, I start to look around.. My lower torso is now covered by my dirt bike. Alarmingly the engine is on and now is slowly melting my skin away. Panic takes over me as I try to wiggle and kick the bike off of me. The pain is now blinding as I get the bike off of me and look at my right leg. Blackened, and burnt bad. As I sit there looking at my leg, I yell for help. "My mom and dad shouldn't be far" I think to myself. I was only in the backyard after all. Thinking back to how I even crashed in the first place, nothing comes to my mind. I look around to get situated in my yard to try and find out where I am. But the more and more I look, the more unease and scared I feel. The trees here are hung with dark green moss, the air is way more muggy and dense. Fog covers the forest floor, shielding my eyes from the unknown ground. Bugs and flies hover around in the distance. looking up to see what time of day it is, but to only see fog. In the distance I hear howling similar to that of a wolves, but more menacing and frightening. I get up to my wobbly feet and make an effort to not put any weight on my right leg. I pick up a somewhat lengthy stick and use it as a cane. The howling starts again, but many others join in on it too. Some sounded very close to me. If I had a detecting meter for my anxiety, it would be skyrocketing right now. "Wolves don't hunt humans right?" I think to myself. "But what if they are very desperate for food, could easily take me out with a few bites" I ponder. I limb over to my now busted bike, the engine is now off. Gas is leaking everywhere. "Even if i did get the damn thing working, there no fuel for it" I realize. I spot a fairly big bush, wide enough form me to go under. CRACK! BOOM! Thunder, of all of the times. The downpour seemingly come out of nowhere. The bush does next to nothing to shelter me from the relentless gods above shaming me for all I did wrong in my life. Creaaaaaaaaaak.......... Cruuuuuuuuuuuuuuunch................ Growl. Oh shit. Oh shit Shit Shit Creeaaaaaaak........ "That does not sound like a animal" I say to myself. As I hid under my bush in a very manly ball, I say its legs. Big, strong wooden legs. Each with individual claws and appendages at the ends of them. It crouched down and moved towards the bike. Its head was very similar to a canines head. Except for the leaves and wooden structure of course. Creeeeaaaaak...... The creature made very noisy and loud noises. Similar to rubbing styrofoam together. It started to sniff the goggles, and headgear i left behind. "Wait can it smell me?" I thought to myself. It slowly turned around and started to make its way to my secrete lair. No, no, no, no It suddenly stopped and stared at where i was hiding, it saw me. It lunged and tackled me out of the bush. Now covered in rain and mud, I recover and stare at the creature. If I had my rape whistle it would be blowing right now. It charged and swiped its sharp claw at me. It got me on my right arm, now a open gash with dark red crimson blood pouring out. "If im going to die right now, im going out the right way" I say as I face death. I run up to the creature and go for a left hook. It then catches my arms mid swing with its big canine teeth. I try to tear my arm away but it just makes it more painful. It gets ready to swing me and let me flying when all of a sudden I take to fingers and jab them in its left eye. It lets go and retreats, whimpering and whining. "Yea bitch!" I yell. I feel light headed and fall to my knees. "So this is how it ends eh? Almost mauled to death by an alien. But to die from bloodless and not from the creature itself. I take one more good look at my arm. Its pouring and my whole right side is drenched is dark red crimson liquid. As i feel myself falling face first into the ground i see another creature running towards me. Its colored black and some other bright color. I don't feel obliged to recognize the other color and this is the end for me. Kinda funny how i ended up here face first in dirt and now i die here the same way. Am I dead? Maybe I was dead all along. Being punished for my sins. No, cant be. I was that much of a dick in my life. "Where ever did you come? To fight a timberwolf was dumb" Wait, who was that. Oww Something is poking my arm. I try to open my eyes but they are to heavy. It felt like I was under heavy medication. Wait, was I being drugged? My breathing started to pick up. The thing talking to me must have noticed this. "Please do not move, for that I disapprove" It said again. What is up with the rhyming? "I must lastly apply this herb, then i will no longer disturb" I then felt a soft feeling on my upper right arm, presumably where the gash was. Then footsteps, and silence. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My eyes open, to a small but cozy wooden hut. Made of hay, stray, mud, and foliage from the surrounding forest. Tiki like masks hang from the walls. Candles on tables light the room I lay in. I was sleeping on a wooden frame bed. With a soft cotton mattress. And a thin plain brown blanket. I look down to my leg and see it wrapped and covered in leaves and other unknown items. My arm is tightly bandaged the same way my leg is. I start to lift the bandage off to see the damage below. "That cut will most likely scar, how you survived is quite bazaar" "Ahh!" I scream, falling backwards off the couch. I look up to see who was treating me. A small, black and white miniature horse like zebra stood at the doorway to the room I was in. "Please do not be afraid, I only came here to aid" It said. By this point I had a couple things sorted out. First of all it was a female now that I could hear her without the heavy medication i was on. Second of all I was on a really bad acid trip. Third of all my parents are gonna be so pissed. Life was great! Bruising"Please, do not scare. For I am only here to care" She said. "Y-yo-you t-talk?" i said nervously. "Why would I not, its what i've been taught" She said. "May I have you're name, for when you were hurt I came" As I look at the small zebra/horse I look at her eyes, studying my every movement. Wait, come to think of it, what is my name? Why haven't I thought about this. What the hell, who am I. I can clearly remember my mom and dads names. Why cant I remember mine. "Are you well, for you don't look to swell" She said. She must of noticed my heavy and frantic breathing as panic over took me. "I-I don-don't remember m-my na-name" I say. She looked very confused for a second, but them ran out of the room very quickly. Did I spook her? The zebra then returned carry a bottle filled with a mysterious liquid inside. More drugs? "Drink this for the truth, secretes may be hidden in you're youth" She said. The liquid in question was milky white, and smelled like vanilla. Maybe it was vanilla? As I looked at her questioningly like, "Do you really expect me to drink this" expression on my face, she then replied quickly saying "Please, place your trust in me, for this will make you see" Ok, you know what, i've been mauled by a wooden wolf thing, punched it in the eye, and I talked to a zebra. What could go wrong. As I got up and took it from her mouth, I glanced at her one more time. Her face had the expressions aying, "trust me" I unbottled the cap and took a sip. It had a slightly bitter and sweet taste. I then took a big gulp of it. I started to feel light headed, so I sat back down on the bed. As my vision goes I think, she fucking drugged me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* The sound of footsteps. The smell of flowers. *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Arghhhhhh, my freaking head" I groan. "So, what did you see. Or where you forever lost in a sea?" She asked. "Who are you?" I asked. "Zecora" She said. "Zecora, I thank you for the help, but where am I?" I ask. "The Everfree Forest in Equestria in my hut, it is real-" "Im sorry Zecora to interrupt you but is there anywhere I can go to find information in this land you call Equestria?" i interrupt. "You may not go, for I must get someone to you to show" She replied. "What do you mean?" I ask. "No more questions just stay here, please while I am gone do not disappear" With that she ran out of the room and presumably to what she needed to get. Why would she not let me go, other than the obvious dangers outside. But then that asks the question as to why she is able to survive out here. Not wanting to sit here for however long she will take, i get up and try to walk. An obvious and painful burn mark on my leg makes it hard for me to walk. As i limp out of the doorway i see the rest of the building isn't very much different. Candles and masks everywhere. But on one side of the hut there was a full shelf upon shelf of bottles, and potions. As I make my way there I notice an upon book filled with information and medicines. But on the page it was opened on, was a crude drawing of my self. Notes on the side detail every observation about me. From my hair color, to my eye color, to how tall I am, to how heavy I am. In a way I was flattered, but very creeped out too. Why was she so keen on keeping me in here anyway. I make the decision to take a peek outside of the door. As I swing open the wooden door I notice her hooves imprinted in the ground. Because of the heavy rain yesterday, her hooves were not hard to see at all. I start to limp down the path she made, going through a trail, and past a stream. I finally reached a grassy hill, obstructing my view of what is past it. I make my way up the hill to have my eyes cast upon the most startling thing ever. A full village field with houses, markets, shops, and most of all. More miniature neon, and bright colored animals. Where am I? RecoveryAs I stand there, over looking the town. I think to myself once again, where am I. How did I get here. And how do I get back. As I think about this more and more under the radiant sun, I start to feel dizzy. This dizziness then becomes a terrible headache. Bad enough for me to take a knee and hold press my temples. "Arghhh" I mumble. "What is going on" I ask. I collapse to the ground under a dizzy spell and close my eyes to feel the warm soft grass, and the silent breeze which blows against where I lay. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zecora left the hut in a hurry. Her friend Twilight Sparkle must know of what this creature is, for she is the Princess student after all. As Zecora gallops her way over the grassy hill that overlooks Ponyville, she takes one second to get a good view of the town. It was summer so it was rare to see ponies inside their houses. For outside was beautiful today. The sun shone brilliantly through the clear sky. Although it had poured yesterday, there was not even a trace left of the horrible weather. She quickly cleared her mind and made her way to the tree house in which Twilight lived in. *Knock* *Knock* *Knock* "Come in!" Twilight responded behind the door. Zecora quickly made her way into the house, and came to Twilight. She told her of everything that happened with the last day. Zecora then said she had a rough sketch of the creature and the proportions of him. She reached over to her side, to only realize in her rushing, she had forgotten her saddle bags and book. "Where is it!" Twilight asked. She then explained how in her rush she had forgotten it at her hut. "Quickly come with me, for you will then see" Zecora said. Twlight went over to Spike and told her assistant that she was gonna be gone for awhile. "Where are you going, can I come?" Spike asked in a very excited manner. "Im sorry Spike but this is errr- a special private mission from the princess for me and Zecora only! Yeah, that's it" She quickly lied. She didn't want to worry Spike about what was going on. "If you say so Twi" He said. And with that they were gone. Off to her hut to meet this creature. Yes, he was at the hut. Waiting patiently for their arrival. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I swim around in unconsciousness, trying to reach a certain noise. It was like a clock, ticking, and ticking in his mind. That's all he heard. Am I going crazy? Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. Wait it stopped. Then it began again. Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. "Is he here?" Wait who was that. "His arrival was not unnoticed" Who's talking? "He is merely a child" "Yes I do agree" "But this will make it easier" The voices I heard sounded the same. "For they will try their best to get rid of him" *BEEP* BEEP* *BEEP Am I losing it? I think I am. Wait, what's thats that noise? "Please don't leave us" Even if I couldn't remember my name, the compassion, love, and kindness in that voice will never be forgotten. Mom. *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zecora and Twilight quickly made their way up the hill, anxious to see the creature. But upon getting to the top, there lay on its side the creature. Twilight saw the creature and she could feel the non existent magic within it. How could one not have magic in it. "What is it doing here Zecora!" Twilight asked. "He must of been scared, even though I showed him I care!" Zecora replied. This is bad Twilight thought. "Can it communicate?" Twilight asked. "It can speak, its quite unique" Zecora replied. "I have to get the princess" Twilight said. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I can now feel a new presence around me. As I start to feel myself drift out of whatever dream I had, I start to feel worried. Why are there people in my bedroom with me. I open my eyes to only be confronted to the sun and cloudless sky. Damn, thought it was over. I start to lean up, but then I hear a startled yelp. I look to my left and see a brightly colored purple horse staring at me. "H-h -hi?" I say. "You can speak" The horse lady says. "Who are you" I ask nervously. "I am Twilight Sparkle" she says. "But who are you?" She continues. "I cant remember" I say back. "What do you mean you cant remember" She asks. I then explain to her how I got here and what happened. "Can you walk" She asks after hearing about my leg and arm. "Yea" I say. "We need to head back to Zecoras place, we need to figure out who and what you are" Twilight says. "Oh, im a human" I say. "Hooumuan?" She says back, butchering the word. "Yea, close enough" I say. So we make our way back to the hut. But in the shadowy bushes behind us a forgotten evil is watching. "This will take awhile, I must make it urgent" It says. CutsSitting patiently on the bed, a day ago I was stuck on due to my injuries. The now befriended purple unicorn is examining the book the zebra had made. I try to think of what the constant dizzy spells and memories I see when I am out mean. Maybe I am just going crazy after all. But that pain felt really surreal too. Its all so confusing to me. Now looking to the zebra and unicorn chatting very closely and blushing intensely, I wonder what they are saying. The unicorn then turns to me and asks, "Are you a colt or filly?" A colt and filly? Judging by the way the words sound i presume colt is masculine, and filly sounds very feminine. "Errrr, uh, colt!" I say. She then turns back around and continues to read the book. I try to think what my name is, I feel like it starts with a b, but it could be a c for all I know. Chris sounds like a cool name, I hope that's my name. If I don't remember my name, what will it be anyways. The all to curious unicorn then turns back to me and says, "I am going to try to get Princess Celestia to come down and identify you're species, and where you are from. You may ask her questions she may have answers for. Me, I don't know who, and what you are. But you seem danger less" Wait, there's a princess. Is there like fairy's, goblins, and more talking animals! Thats when there was a loud crash outside. "What was that!" Twilight screamed. "I do not know, but it doesn't sound like a crow" Zecora replied. The wall behind me was then ripped apart and throw away. There stood a nightmare. A cloud of black smoke, leaking darkness and the feeling of despair from it. It stood on two gas like feet, it had no arms, no head, and the body was just the smoke. "What the hell is that!" I screamed. "RUN!" Twilight yelled. I was already half way to doing that when I was picked up and thrown across the room. Slamming into the opposite wall, I staggered and managed to get to my feet. I then faced my attacker which had already done work to the other animals. The purple one was thrown outside of the hut, while the zebra lay unconscious but alive, evident from the breathing, on the ground in front of the bed. It then picked me up the second time and hovered me in front of it. I looked at the form, and saw what will never leave my eyes. My moms face, among other tormented ones stared back. Foggy yet visible, she said to me, with tears in both our eyes. "I'm sorry I wasn't there to help you" Beside the mass, materialized a sharp razor like appendage, which then stabbed, and went deep into my stomach. The darkness leaking from the foggy creature then leaked into my vision, and I was overthrown by darkness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Twilight lay on the ground, bruised and hurt from the fall she had taken. The creature was then floating away, to only then dissipate into the bushes. Twilight through the now missing wall into the hut. On the floor lay the creature. A pool of black blood forming around him. "Oh my celestia" She gasped. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Images flash, faces blurred, feelings numb. This is what I feel. Nothing, I feel nothing. Floating in a inky blackness. Memories being looked at, and examined. The feeling of love and warmth overtakes me. The feeling is amazing. It makes me feel wanted, like I have a purpose. Why do I feel like this? What even happened. As i realize I now have control over my thoughts I start to ponder what happened. I remember a darkness, throwing me, injuring me, stab- I cant even think about it. The pain now evident, yet numbed down. Not as painful as you would think, but yet still there. Now where am I? Am I dead, left bleeding out on the ground. I'm now cold, freezing. the warmth now gone. i want it back, it felt good. "It won't leave him without hurting it" A voice said. Loving, and kindness within it. "Did he bring it here?" A voice I immediately recognize as the purple unicorn Twilight's. "It was here before me" "Are you sure?" Twilight asks. "It would appear so, it cannot interact with entities using magic. That is why your attacks had no effects on it" "What does it want with him?" Twilight asks. "I do not know my dear student" Student, is this a teacher. Am I in a school? "Twilight, im going to try to bring him back, would you mind assisting me?" "Yes princess" Twilight says. Wait, woah woah woah. Princess, magic, student? The feeling of warmth then overtakes me once again, stronger though. The feeling of pain now coming back as more of the warmth goes through my mind. Then nothing. No feeling, no pain, no warmth, no cold. "He needs rest, we will check on it within the next hour" The "Princess" says. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Twilight did you notice anything distinct about him" Celestia says. "No, why?" Twilight responds. "I am surprised you did not notice, but I did not teach you anything about it too. For this creature does not have a substantial amount of magic. In fact he has left to nothing in it" Celestia says. "But, there is magic everywhere. There is no way he hasn't at least interacted with magic" Twilight responds. "Twilight, that is what worries me. He isn't from here" She says. "Well yeah, hes probably from some other country" Twilight says. "No Twilight, hes not from this world" Celestia gravely says. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My eyes open, to a white roof. Looking to my left I see a I.V kit. A needle in my arm with a liquid being pushed into it. Im in a hospital, flowers to my left. Balloons saying "Get Better Soon" I look to my right and see a table beside my bed. A picture of me, my mom, and brother and dad. But the faces of my brother and dad are blurred, unable to see. I shoot back up, awake. It was a dream. The room I am in is marble white. The door in front of me is wooden, beautifully crafted. Look down I see my lower torso is wrapped in bandages. Upon seeing the wrappings I feel an intimidate pain in my side. "It will take time to heal, my magic can only do so much. You're body should do the rest" A voice said. I look to my left and see the princess. Of course she is a horse. She stands taller than me, colored white with a........ floating rainbow mane? I don't even know what to expect anymore. "Can you speak?" She asks. "Y-ye-yea" I stutter. "How do you feel?" She asks. "It hurts, but its bearable" I say. "I expect you have a lot of questions" She says. Oh boy, I do.

"I must lastly apply this herb, then i will no longer disturb" I then felt a soft feeling on my upper right arm, presumably where the gash was. Then footsteps, and silence. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My eyes open, to a small but cozy wooden hut. Made of hay, stray, mud, and foliage from the surrounding forest. Tiki like masks hang from the walls. Candles on tables light the room I lay in. I was sleeping on a wooden frame bed.

"May I have you're name, for when you were hurt I came" As I look at the small zebra/horse I look at her eyes, studying my every movement. Wait, come to think of it, what is my name? Why haven't I thought about this. What the hell, who am I. I can clearly remember my mom and dads names. Why cant I remember mine. "Are you well, for you don't look to swell" She said.

"So, what did you see. Or where you forever lost in a sea?" She asked. "Who are you?" I asked. "Zecora" She said. "Zecora, I thank you for the help, but where am I?" I ask. "The Everfree Forest in Equestria in my hut, it is real-" "Im sorry Zecora to interrupt you but is there anywhere I can go to find information in this land you call Equestria?" i interrupt.

But on the page it was opened on, was a crude drawing of my self. Notes on the side detail every observation about me. From my hair color, to my eye color, to how tall I am, to how heavy I am. In a way I was flattered, but very creeped out too. Why was she so keen on keeping me in here anyway. I make the decision to take a peek outside of the door. As I swing open the wooden door I notice her hooves imprinted in the ground. Because of the heavy rain yesterday, her hooves were not hard to see at all. I start to limp down the path she made, going through a trail, and past a stream. I finally reached a grassy hill, obstructing my view of what is past it. I make my way up the hill to have my eyes cast upon the most startling thing ever. A full village field with houses, markets, shops, and most of all. More miniature neon, and bright colored animals. Where am I?
RecoveryAs I stand there, over looking the town. I think to myself once again, where am I. How did I get here. And how do I get back. As I think about this more and more under the radiant sun, I start to feel dizzy. This dizziness then becomes a terrible headache. Bad enough for me to take a knee and hold press my temples. "Arghhh" I mumble. "What is going on" I ask. I collapse to the ground under a dizzy spell and close my eyes to feel the warm soft grass, and the silent breeze which blows against where I lay. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zecora left the hut in a hurry. Her friend Twilight Sparkle must know of what this creature is, for she is the Princess student after all. As Zecora gallops her way over the grassy hill that overlooks Ponyville, she takes one second to get a good view of the town. It was summer so it was rare to see ponies inside their houses. For outside was beautiful today. The sun shone brilliantly through the clear sky. Although it had poured yesterday, there was not even a trace left of the horrible weather. She quickly cleared her mind and made her way to the tree house in which Twilight lived in. *Knock* *Knock* *Knock* "Come in!" Twilight responded behind the door. Zecora quickly made her way into the house, and came to Twilight. She told her of everything that happened with the last day. Zecora then said she had a rough sketch of the creature and the proportions of him. She reached over to her side, to only realize in her rushing, she had forgotten her saddle bags and book. "Where is it!" Twilight asked. She then explained how in her rush she had forgotten it at her hut. "Quickly come with me, for you will then see" Zecora said. Twlight went over to Spike and told her assistant that she was gonna be gone for awhile. "Where are you going, can I come?" Spike asked in a very excited manner. "Im sorry Spike but this is errr- a special private mission from the princess for me and Zecora only! Yeah, that's it" She quickly lied. She didn't want to worry Spike about what was going on. "If you say so Twi" He said. And with that they were gone. Off to her hut to meet this creature. Yes, he was at the hut. Waiting patiently for their arrival. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I swim around in unconsciousness, trying to reach a certain noise. It was like a clock, ticking, and ticking in his mind. That's all he heard. Am I going crazy? Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. Wait it stopped. Then it began again. Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. "Is he here?" Wait who was that. "His arrival was not unnoticed" Who's talking? "He is merely a child" "Yes I do agree" "But this will make it easier" The voices I heard sounded the same. "For they will try their best to get rid of him" *BEEP* BEEP* *BEEP Am I losing it? I think I am. Wait, what's thats that noise? "Please don't leave us" Even if I couldn't remember my name, the compassion, love, and kindness in that voice will never be forgotten. Mom. *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zecora and Twilight quickly made their way up the hill, anxious to see the creature. But upon getting to the top, there lay on its side the creature. Twilight saw the creature and she could feel the non existent magic within it. How could one not have magic in it. "What is it doing here Zecora!" Twilight asked. "He must of been scared, even though I showed him I care!" Zecora replied. This is bad Twilight thought. "Can it communicate?" Twilight asked. "It can speak, its quite unique" Zecora replied. "I have to get the princess" Twilight said. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I can now feel a new presence around me. As I start to feel myself drift out of whatever dream I had, I start to feel worried. Why are there people in my bedroom with me. I open my eyes to only be confronted to the sun and cloudless sky. Damn, thought it was over. I start to lean up, but then I hear a startled yelp. I look to my left and see a brightly colored purple horse staring at me. "H-h -hi?" I say. "You can speak" The horse lady says. "Who are you" I ask nervously. "I am Twilight Sparkle" she says. "But who are you?" She continues. "I cant remember" I say back. "What do you mean you cant remember" She asks. I then explain to her how I got here and what happened. "Can you walk" She asks after hearing about my leg and arm. "Yea" I say. "We need to head back to Zecoras place, we need to figure out who and what you are" Twilight says. "Oh, im a human" I say. "Hooumuan?" She says back, butchering the word. "Yea, close enough" I say. So we make our way back to the hut. But in the shadowy bushes behind us a forgotten evil is watching. "This will take awhile, I must make it urgent" It says.
CutsSitting patiently on the bed, a day ago I was stuck on due to my injuries. The now befriended purple unicorn is examining the book the zebra had made. I try to think of what the constant dizzy spells and memories I see when I am out mean. Maybe I am just going crazy after all. But that pain felt really surreal too. Its all so confusing to me. Now looking to the zebra and unicorn chatting very closely and blushing intensely, I wonder what they are saying. The unicorn then turns to me and asks, "Are you a colt or filly?" A colt and filly? Judging by the way the words sound i presume colt is masculine, and filly sounds very feminine. "Errrr, uh, colt!" I say. She then turns back around and continues to read the book. I try to think what my name is, I feel like it starts with a b, but it could be a c for all I know. Chris sounds like a cool name, I hope that's my name. If I don't remember my name, what will it be anyways. The all to curious unicorn then turns back to me and says, "I am going to try to get Princess Celestia to come down and identify you're species, and where you are from. You may ask her questions she may have answers for. Me, I don't know who, and what you are. But you seem danger less" Wait, there's a princess. Is there like fairy's, goblins, and more talking animals! Thats when there was a loud crash outside. "What was that!" Twilight screamed. "I do not know, but it doesn't sound like a crow" Zecora replied. The wall behind me was then ripped apart and throw away. There stood a nightmare. A cloud of black smoke, leaking darkness and the feeling of despair from it. It stood on two gas like feet, it had no arms, no head, and the body was just the smoke. "What the hell is that!" I screamed. "RUN!" Twilight yelled. I was already half way to doing that when I was picked up and thrown across the room. Slamming into the opposite wall, I staggered and managed to get to my feet. I then faced my attacker which had already done work to the other animals. The purple one was thrown outside of the hut, while the zebra lay unconscious but alive, evident from the breathing, on the ground in front of the bed. It then picked me up the second time and hovered me in front of it. I looked at the form, and saw what will never leave my eyes. My moms face, among other tormented ones stared back. Foggy yet visible, she said to me, with tears in both our eyes. "I'm sorry I wasn't there to help you" Beside the mass, materialized a sharp razor like appendage, which then stabbed, and went deep into my stomach. The darkness leaking from the foggy creature then leaked into my vision, and I was overthrown by darkness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Twilight lay on the ground, bruised and hurt from the fall she had taken. The creature was then floating away, to only then dissipate into the bushes. Twilight through the now missing wall into the hut. On the floor lay the creature. A pool of black blood forming around him. "Oh my celestia" She gasped. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Images flash, faces blurred, feelings numb. This is what I feel. Nothing, I feel nothing. Floating in a inky blackness. Memories being looked at, and examined. The feeling of love and warmth overtakes me. The feeling is amazing. It makes me feel wanted, like I have a purpose. Why do I feel like this? What even happened. As i realize I now have control over my thoughts I start to ponder what happened. I remember a darkness, throwing me, injuring me, stab- I cant even think about it. The pain now evident, yet numbed down. Not as painful as you would think, but yet still there. Now where am I? Am I dead, left bleeding out on the ground. I'm now cold, freezing. the warmth now gone. i want it back, it felt good. "It won't leave him without hurting it" A voice said. Loving, and kindness within it. "Did he bring it here?" A voice I immediately recognize as the purple unicorn Twilight's. "It was here before me" "Are you sure?" Twilight asks. "It would appear so, it cannot interact with entities using magic. That is why your attacks had no effects on it" "What does it want with him?" Twilight asks. "I do not know my dear student" Student, is this a teacher. Am I in a school? "Twilight, im going to try to bring him back, would you mind assisting me?" "Yes princess" Twilight says. Wait, woah woah woah. Princess, magic, student? The feeling of warmth then overtakes me once again, stronger though. The feeling of pain now coming back as more of the warmth goes through my mind. Then nothing. No feeling, no pain, no warmth, no cold. "He needs rest, we will check on it within the next hour" The "Princess" says. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Twilight did you notice anything distinct about him" Celestia says. "No, why?" Twilight responds. "I am surprised you did not notice, but I did not teach you anything about it too. For this creature does not have a substantial amount of magic. In fact he has left to nothing in it" Celestia says. "But, there is magic everywhere. There is no way he hasn't at least interacted with magic" Twilight responds. "Twilight, that is what worries me. He isn't from here" She says. "Well yeah, hes probably from some other country" Twilight says. "No Twilight, hes not from this world" Celestia gravely says. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My eyes open, to a white roof. Looking to my left I see a I.V kit. A needle in my arm with a liquid being pushed into it. Im in a hospital, flowers to my left. Balloons saying "Get Better Soon" I look to my right and see a table beside my bed. A picture of me, my mom, and brother and dad. But the faces of my brother and dad are blurred, unable to see. I shoot back up, awake. It was a dream. The room I am in is marble white. The door in front of me is wooden, beautifully crafted. Look down I see my lower torso is wrapped in bandages. Upon seeing the wrappings I feel an intimidate pain in my side. "It will take time to heal, my magic can only do so much. You're body should do the rest" A voice said. I look to my left and see the princess. Of course she is a horse. She stands taller than me, colored white with a........ floating rainbow mane? I don't even know what to expect anymore. "Can you speak?" She asks. "Y-ye-yea" I stutter. "How do you feel?" She asks. "It hurts, but its bearable" I say. "I expect you have a lot of questions" She says. Oh boy, I do.
