Chapter 2: Farewell Earth

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

This is the day where I might leave this world. Once again, I followed through with my normal daily routine until I got home after finishing the rest. It was 7:30 when I completely finished my normal routine.

Beings how it takes a while to fill up the tub, & that I won't be able to hand out the candy myself, I started to fill the tub early (so it's ready when I start the teleportation, since the water pressure isn't exactly the greatest) & filled the candy bowl with a note that says: Please take one. Since it's Halloween, I decided to wear my costume during teleportation, figured it would look pretty bad-ass for a first impression in a new world (good thing I waterproofed the mask, gloves, & tattoos.) (Since the tattoos only come off with soap).

Once it was all done, the tub was full & ready to go. As I turned the water off, I pulled off my mask, put the gem in my mouth, & put the mask back on. Then I looked over at the bathroom clock, 7:59. Just one more minute, & then I can begin the teleportation.

As I was waiting, I began to worry in my head "What if this whole thing is just a scam, & this figure was just an expert liar &
persuader. Maybe it was just to see if I'd actually do it, maybe I shouldn't do it".

Just then, the clock turned 8:00, only one way to find out if it's for real or not.

I stepped into the tub one foot (more like soaking shoe) at a time, then slowly started to lay down, letting the refreshing sensation of the cold water take over (most people would think it's freezing, but not me, I've always been fond of cold water. Feels more natural to me than hot water).

As I lay in the tub with my costume on, I let myself relax as soon as I heard a voice in my head say 'Yes, just relax, drift into a deep sleep, & let us do the rest'.

Upon hearing the voice, I found myself obeying, relaxing more & more as I drifted into sleep in under 10 minutes.

Once again, I found myself in my normal dream. Flying high through the vast endless cloud-filled sky with beautiful white bird wings on my back. But this time, it was a little different. I found myself flying toward a very bright, very blinding light.

As I got closer, I feel a powerful energy start to envelop me from my feet up, intensifying as I drew closer to the light.

Now up to my hips, the light started to get brighter & brighter, causing me to use my arms to shield my eyes so I wouldn't go blind from the super intense light. Wanting to get this over & done with, I started to fly faster, causing both the energy & the light to slowly speed up their increasing intensity.

As I was only 50 meters away, the energy & light had completely enveloped me for only a few seconds before I woke up.


When I woke up, I expected to find myself in my tub still. Instead, I found myself falling from the sky! It was worse than I thought!!

THAT SON OF A BITCH!!! It was a trick! A trick that would ensure me a certain death!

As I looked down, I noticed a strange light surrounding me. Checking my surroundings, I noticed that it actually was for real after all! For something of the impossible was surrounding me...... A FRICKIN' ENERGY SHIELD!! Only possible in fictional movies, shows, & stories, but as it stands right now, there's one surrounding me!

As I was falling, I think I saw some sort of old 1500's type of town, populated by what seemed like anthro horses of many colors, as far as I could see. As I was nearing the ground, I had noticed from what I could tell, that I was most likely to land in the fast-approaching lake.

That's when I remembered, that hitting water from a great height at a great speed, was practically the same as hitting concrete. So the energy shield would only absorb, like, 60% of the upcoming damage.

As I hit the lake with a big 'KER-SPLASH!', I had plummeted an approximate 25 feet under the water. At that point, I kinda started to worry. Even though I'm able to swim, but I'm not exactly a fast swimmer, & I've never been able to hold my breath for 30 seconds.

Frantically, I began to swim upwards at my fastest possible swimming speed. I was about to pass out from lack of air, when I suddenly popped up out of the water, right at the last moment.

Happy to be alive, I started swimming towards the shore. Once I got to the shore, I plopped down onto the sand, exhausted from exerting myself too much, & just laid there, letting myself rest to catch my breath.

I felt my eyes close on their own, starting to feel tired. I probably would've fallen asleep 5 minutes later if I hadn't heard a stuttery female voice that said: "Uhh, e-excuse me ss-sir, b-but wh-what e-exactly ARE y-you!!??"

Wondering who the voice belongs to, with my eyes still closed, I slowly raise my head to see who apparently had 'no idea' of what I am.

Before opening my eyes, I asked "Ha. Good one. But I'm pretty sure you mean WHO am I?"

"*gasp!* It speaks! N-no. I-I mean what are you. B-because th-there's n-n-nothing in p-pony history th-that m-mentions a-a-anything on wh-what k-kind of c-c-creature you are!" said the female voice again.

Slightly annoyed, I replied "What the hell are you playing at!? You're acting like you've never even seen a hu......
AAAAAHHHHH!" I exclaimed at the sight that I'd never even think possible from the moment I opened my eyes!

The town really IS populated by colorful anthro horses, for there was a crowd of them gathered around where I was, just staring at me with fear in their eyes, just behind the one that was standing no more than 2 feet away from me, ALL wearing costumes! (So much for trying to look bad-ass for a first impression, which I don't think will ever happen.)

Quickly getting up, I stared in fear at the crowd of anthro horses, hoping if they were friendly or not. Not exactly wanting to stick around & find out, I did absolutely the craziest thing I've ever done in my life.

On Instinct, I made a break for it by jumping back in the lake & swimming over to the other side. But I wasn't even a quarter of a way (since I'm not that fast of a swimmer) before I felt a lavender aura of energy engulf me & pulled me back to the crowd of horses.

Looking over at the crowd as I got up again, I saw that the one who had the guts to talk to me was the same one who pulled me back!

"Oh, My God!!!,” I exclaim. “Y-you're a uu-uni-c-corrrrrn." I managed to choke out before fainting from too much stress in my head.

"OH NO!" I heard the unicorn exclaim as I was slowly fading into unconsciousness. "He needs help! Quick! Somepony go get the ........."


Author's Note

On the where it says 'I felt a lavender aura of energy', you may think that's a mistake, but it's not. Even though you can't feel color, but you can see it, which is why our stowaway said that, because he could see the color of the magical aura that he felt.
