Everything was going so well for me... I had just come back from Manehatten after playing three sets. Octy and I were heading back to Ponyville and were going to take a long vacation before playing anything again... and suddenly, I find myself pushing Octy out of the way of a runaway carriage, and I end up getting plowed by it and being thrown into the river.
It was so dark... the water was freezing, the carriage no doubt hit some major parts of me. I couldn't breath, I felt myself slipping away, my vision darkening.
I thought, was this the end of DJ-PON3?
It was not, it was only the beginning of something extreme...
Unknown Time - Unknown Location
I felt myself waking up to a strange sound,
Thump thump
Wait... that's my heart isn't it?
Thump thump
If that was my heartbeat... then am I still alive?
Thump thump
I guess I am.
I heard other things too, the most prominent one being water, more specifically, water hitting the side of a boat. I also noticed everything was swaying, I could feel it. Was I on a boat?
I managed to crack open an eye, and I saw I was in a cot. My body felt damp, my mane clinging to my forehead and body and dripping with water. The room was swaying, and I knew I was on a boat. I had been on a ship before, so i knew what being on one felt like. But... why was I on a boat? Did somepony save me?
`I shook my head as I tried to get up, my legs hurt, my chest was aching and my ears stung. I shook my head again, sending water droplets flying as I climbed out of the cot, thankfully it was the lowest one and I was able to get out easily enough. But the cot was huge! Like, for a minotaur or something. I wondered what kind of boat this was, and who got me out of the water. Looking around, I noticed some more smaller cots like the one I was in, pillows and covers were lying on them and I saw none of them had been disturbed. A door sat at one end and a trunk at the other.
I decided to head towards the door, I wobbled a bit as I tried to walk forwards but managed to stabilize myself by leaning on the cot. "Crap." I muttered, everything hurt, and my mouth felt dry. But I pushed past the pain and discomfort and kept moving towards the door. Once I reached it, I used my magic to slide it open. A bright light pierced my eyes and I had to shut them, I was aware my shades were gone, much to my chagrin.
I liked those shades.
Stepping out, I found myself on the deck of the boat... was it a boat? The deck in the back was large, flat, had several guard rails on either side and the back, and there was a large blocky thing sitting near the back. Turning around I saw the door I came out of, along with a large cabin that looked unlike anything I've ever seen. It was a big cabin, with a lot of windows, and a bunch of weird equipment up front with a wheel. But that wasn't the weirdest part, the weirdest was the thing standing behind the wheel.
He - I guess it was a he - was tall, and wearing dark blue pants made of some kind of rugged material, a black shirt that hugged his upper body and showed off some impressive muscles for a creature like him. Then he turned around, and spotted me. We both froze, his light hazel eyes locked on my red ones. He looked, surprised, but also pensive.
Neither of us said anything for the longest time, just staring at one another. Eventually he gulped, and spoke, "Alright little buddy, I'm not going to hurt you or anything..."
