A life stolen for a war unclaimed
An Ending for a Beginning
Load Full StoryNext ChapterThe sounds of laughter filled my dreams. Not innocent like that of children but a twisted dark laughter that echoed in the darkness. As the nightmare continued a tainted and bloodied battlefield of a barren wasteland can be seen as the dark clouds move slowly parting from the center of the sky revealing a scarlet moon while sounds of thunder resonate in the distance. The laughter never ceasing and growing worse as the scene slowly focuses on a single figure barely standing as his body trembles from the laughter he gives. In front of him a women, fair of skin lay. No life in her eyes and not a breath escaping her parted crimson stained lips. The man looks down at the women as the crimson glow shines down onto him and a claret sword stabbed into the ground by his side revealing his face as his laughter begins to subside. Revealing my face, and suddenly as if without missing a beat I spoke against my will. "Don't think this is over just yet. No, this is only the beginning," my voice resonated with corrupted pleasure and joy complimented by insanity.
With that my eyes snapped opened, my breathing calm and steady as my eyes cautiously took in the sight of the darkness that blanketed my room. As I began to sit up my phones' alarm went off signaling to me it was 4:30 AM and that it was time to wake up to go to work. Reaching over I turned off the pestering sound and let silence fill the room. Peace, quiet, Serenity....emptiness. This was what I looked for whenever I was totally alone and I had always achieved. Deciding to not waste anymore I left my bed and stretched my bones and joints giving several violent pops that I wince from and groan from. I decide to take care of my normal routine shower put on some clothes message my love and then go to work. Holding my phone I go to open the door to my closet. When I do though I get met with a blinding white light that was so intense I held my arms up in a futile attempt to shield my eyes as I take a step back. In doing so I feel my phone start to overheat, burning my hand and forcing me to let go of it as I feel myself falling through nothingness.
I felt time slow and the blood in my veins chilling. A feeling I recognize all too well from my depression. A single thought began to race through my mind as began to scream in pain from my bones and muscles felt like they were being destroyed and remade. Am I finally going to die? Now, when everything was finally starting to go right? When I finally had control? My consciousness gave out and silence followed. I find myself coming to again to me what seemed shortly afterwards but could've been anywhere from 2 hours to 3 days. Slowly my sense returned.
The first like always was scent. Taking in deep breaths now I tried to see if there was anything I recognized. The first thing I smelled was the air itself. So crisp, clean, fresh it was better than being in a forest with the fresh scent of pine and such. I coughed a little as I choked on the air. Soon feeling began to come to me. I hated this part of my self-dubbed 'resurrection' process, because it would feel like bugs are crawling all over me with little pins sticking into me. I gave a hollow shudder at that image and felt cloth and softness. Moving my arm slowly to feel better what I was on proved to be counter productive as every muscle in my body screamed in exhaustion and soreness. My legs feeling like i ran a marathon, my arms as if I had been holding weights for over 12 hours above my hand my stomach and chest feeling like i had been punched an been planking for over 3 hours my neck and face hurting like i had fallen on them from a 3 story building Recognizing it from experience. Taste came shortly as my mouth felt slightly dry feeling my tongue around my mouth to make sure I hadn't broken my face made me realize that my teeth either grew or I had dentures due to feeling more than normal and a few in the front where significantly sharper. Hearing came slowly and there was a steady beeping. Once ever 3 seconds i counted in my head. A heart monitor perhaps? That would lead me to be in a hospital.
Finally Sight came to me. I slowly blinked my eyes to clear my vision followed by a deep yawn to see I was a lone in a single room with a window that was barred from the outside. Rule number one whenever you go into a new place or find yourself in a new place: Note the amount of entrances/exits possible, Windows included. Second make sure you were physically alright at all times. Knowing i was in a hospital was reassuring, Seeing the Bars on the outside of the window was not. So i decided to try and move the sheets. That's when i noticed something was wrong. When I lifted my arm that wasn't connected to the I.V. what lifted instead of my normal tanned skin was rather a white furred stump. Blinking I decided to try and move said stump left and right like I would my arm, and much to my own dissatisfaction and reluctance so did it.
I sighed and tried to gather my thoughts, "Ok, lets run this over. I was going to get dressed for work when something bright made me start to fall, my phone hopefully didn't get destroyed from it overheating while I was falling and in honesty I've come closer to death this time than any of the 13 times before to actually end up in a hospital. Where not only I have no Idea where I am but I have a," I paused to examine the arm further. " I have a hoof. I have a White furred Hoof for a horse, my nose is more noticeable I have sharper fangs and more teeth than before and its daytime. I swear to whatever god or devil that may enjoy screwing with me if I am in THAT TV show my ex got me into that I forced myself to get out of I will deck someone so hard they will spin." My voice grew louder as i began to grow in frustration this lead the door to be opening for an armored Pony to walk in.
"Oh good your awake, the Princesses were beginning to worry if you would ever awake. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Blitz Bolt a Sergent of the royal guard, My unit was tasked to watch over you in case of anything. You recovered amazingly well for the amount of damage you were in. I'll let the nurse your up and get her to bring you some food. But before that," his eyes slightly narrowed as he regarded me calmly. "I want to trust you to not do anything... Rash, if you do that I will be willing to answer any questions you may have is tha-" He noticed I raised my hoof to ask a question. "Ok we know you can you communicate and you have common sense, so what is it?" his voice became very guarded his stance ready, not threatening or preemptive but ready and reactive calmly. I sighed as i closed my eyes while lowering my hands before I spoke.
"I'm in Equestria the land ruled by the Alicorn diarchs, being Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, who raise the Sun and Moon Respectively aren't I?" He nodded his eyes having grown wider as I spoke this made me sigh further as I had to ask another question. "Have Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor had their Alicorn Daughter yet?" He nodded slowly again before speaking.
"How do you know so much about us?" his voice reserved, confused, and mildly demanding. I had to choose my next words carefully as that would dictate the flow of this further.
I opened my mouth to speak and very calmly I stated "That would be information I can only tell Celestia and Luna." He grimaced as i said that but nodded.
"Fine then, I will have a nurse come here with some food after that she and I will escort you to the throne room. Understood?" I nodded to his response and looked him over as he turned and I laid back. Blitz was a Pegasus White fur like myself but his tail was oddly enough a striking dark blue contrast that seemed almost jagged looking. As he went to open the door he turned his head and looked back at me. "You should probably sit up straight or if possible try to stand on your own and stretch your wings... Sitting against them like that will make the go numb. You may not have feathers but it will still feel weird I'm sure." With that he left me and I had to sit up and crane my neck to look at my side to reveal I had indeed Webbed Wings like that had the same white color as my fur.
Great, I gotta learn to use these now. Deciding the older Pegasus was right I shimmied my way to the edge of the bed and tried to steady myself as I dismounted landing my hind hooves just fine and slowly I tried to balance myself as i got onto my fore limbs. huh....Never knew how nice and cool tile floors felt against ones face... its numbing the sting of the physical pain but the humiliation is still there... ahhh.... don't we just love humiliation?
