A Burning Tale

After about five minutes I set my front hooves back to the ground which I ripped into the air as I jumped back in surprise. A mesmerizing blue shimmer enveloped the mirror and it was a almost irresistible sight. I slowly approached the mirror again in curiosity. The mirror suddelny started glowing brightly as the Pony I met in the post offices walked out of the glowing mirror. My jaw dropped in confusion as the Pony walked past me, she probably hasn't noticed me until she reached the door. We both stared at each other for an awkardly long time before she dashed out of the room. I took a while to react and chased her down, trapping her in the living room.

"Would you care to explain, why you're running away from me like that?"

I said after catching some breath. The Pony looked paniced and tried to dash past me but I quickly shut the door. She sat on the floor and sighed.

"Alright. You want an explanation? I'll give you one. I'm not from this world, infact I'm not even a real Pony. I am a human and that mirror I came through is the connection between Equestria and my world."

She explained with a sad and scared undertone. She looked at me in fear I might laugh at her. But I replied calmly.

"I understand. That.. other world... is it... safe?"

I looked at her hopeful as I scraped the floor with one of my hooves. She looked at me confused.

"Safe? What do you mean by that?"

She asked as she scratched the back of her head.

"You know... Would it be possible to track magic through that.. portal?"

She thought for a while and stood up again. I looked at her very hopeful and my wings twitched happily as she answered me.

"No. Not that I know of. Twilight told me you wouldn't be able to track anything once you step through the mirror."

I heard enough to send a kick down to my hooves and wings and I rapidly crashed through the door behind me and back to the magical mirror. I stared at the whole machinery with new hope in my eyes as Gloriosa catched up on me.

"What is wrong that you want to go off radar that desperately?"

She asked after she found me. She walked up besides me and looked at me questioning.

"My Father was kidnapped and possibly murdered by a sadistic cult which leans against the Equestrian law and is now on my tail."

I answered with a sad voice as I looked back at her. I sighed and stomped onto the ground.

"I can't endanger my friends nor my family like this. If they find me, my family's next... So that leaves me no other choice than to run... forever."

I walked closer towards the mirror and softly touched it's surface, making it shimmer on my touch.

"Are you sure you want to do this? Abandon your family to safe them?"

She asked as I held my hoof into the mirror. I looked shocked at what I saw.

"I have no other choice... if I stay... my family line will be rotten out... Yes... I am sure I want to do this."

I took a step into the mirror and looked back for a while. I expanded the wing which was still outside the mirror.

"How long are you going to stay here in Equestria, Gloriosa?"

I asked as I looked back. She wandered in circles as she thought.

"I didn't want to stay for long. Just wanted to speak to Twilight. But sadly she isn't here. So you know what? Since you want to follow me I might just give you a tour in my world."

She replied as she shoved me into the mirror and followed shortly.
