Hi my name is Tru Peterson. Me and my mother were happy until that DAY when our happiness was taken away. After that why try not to think of that DAY. Soon we met some new friends and make some eneimes to help keep us busy to not think about it.

My mother and I, Tru Peterson, were happy until one DAY. After that DAY we were sad and not really sure were to go on from there. We never speak of that DAY, for we wish that that DAY never even happened. A few years after that DAY, something happened to the both of us. We were sent to a world full of colorful ponies and powerful villains. We have made some new friends in this world and we have also made some new enemies. So with the peace and quite that we have in this life, it has made me happy again as almost like that DAY never really did happen. I just hope this new life has done the same for my mother.

This is the first story I have ever written. I am doing this because I want to try and improve on my storytelling skills. With that said there will of course be errors, the pacing may be to slow or too fast at times, some characters may seem out of character and I maybe lacking some detail. If you see anything wrong or have an opinion on anything feel free to tell me all about it. I will do my best to fix everything. Also the cover image was made by me. :)

Thank you

Ch.1 Arrival

Hello, my name is Tru Peterson and right now I am scared for my mother's life and surrounded by colorful ponies. But before I talk about that, let me tell you what happened just a few hours ago.

As I said my name is Tru Peterson, I am 16 and sitting in the living room with my mother watching TV. It is our favorite pastime to do with each other. We had just finished up season two of The Flash and it was really late at night.

“Well I’m finished for the night,” my mother said to me getting up off her seat on the couch. I enjoyed the time I spent with my mother. Ever after that DAY we didn't spend much time with each other. But soon we learned that we had to move on from that DAY. That didn't help ease the pain.

“Oh. Ok I'm done too night, love you mom," I said

"Love you too, Tru" Then we said our goodnights and went to bed in our own bedrooms. Though after that 'DAY' it gets lonely and quite most nights.

The house we lived in wasn't the best but it worked. It was a fairly small house, it had some problems but we would always fix them up. We didn't have much of anything and were fine with that. We had our phones, dvds, internet and PlayStation 4, all the things we needed in order to keep ourselves entertained after that 'DAY'.

That night something didn’t feel right and I couldn’t sleep. I just laid there in my bed on my phone listening to music. I did that only on days that I couldn't sleep well. It was past eleven o'clock when I saw a glow outside my door and down the hall into the living room. At first I didn’t think much of it thinking that it was my mother. Soon though, my mother was standing in my door way, though I didn't notice her.

“Did you leave the TV on?” she asked sounding sleepy.

“No? No I don’t think I did, did I?” I said getting up out of my bed to walk to her. I slipped my phone and headphones into my pocket.

"You know you can at least change out of your clothes when you go to sleep.” she said seeing that I still had my pants and t-shirt on.

"I'm too lazy to care anymore about that.” I said walking by her and into the living room. She just rolled her eyes and gave a sigh in defeat. I turned around and gave her a quick smile before turning back around to face the glowing object.

As I got closer to the end of the hallway and towards the living room, I saw the glowing object in the middle of the living room on the floor. I started to walk up to it to get a better look.
"What do you think it is?" my mother called out to me.

“I think it’s some kind of rock,” I called back to her.

“A glowing rock? Are you sure that is what it is?” she asked.

"No, well maybe, I mean it looks like a rock. Hold on let me get a closer look at it,” I called back. I started getting closer to the rock looking object. It was bright and giving off a lot of heat.

"Be careful, here get back. Maybe I should get a look at it."

She walked up to me and we both stopped and looked at the object. It was beginning to get hot in the room. Soon the object started to float up into the sky. The wind also was starting to pick up. The white light got brighter and larger. All I could see was white before I saw black.

All that I could see was darkness, darkness everywhere. I was almost waiting for Xehanort to come out of nowhere to tell me to use the darkness. I started coming too again. I didn't opened my eyes as I felt really tired. Soon my hearing came back and I started to hear voices nearby. Ones that I did not recognize. What? Why is there random people in my house?

“What kind of animal do you think they are?” said the first voice I heard. I sounded like a female who was scared for her life. Animal?

“I…I don’t know Fluttershy but this one seems....familiar?” said the next voice that was also female.

“Can we throw them a party. They might like parties,” Said another female voice. It sounded more like she was excited and energetic. O...kay?

“No we will wait on that Pinkie. Besides Y’all think there dangerous?” was what the next female voice said. It was more like a southern country accent. Me, dangerous? Your in MY house?

“Yeah why the hay don’t we just blast them both with the elements? You know just to see what happens,” said a more raspy voice. And what does she mean 'blast them both with the elements?'.

....

Is..is she talking about a gun? OH SHI…

“We could, but we don…,” That's it, if I am going to meet my maker I want to see who is going to help me. Time to get up. That’s when I decided to sit up. My eyes still felt heavy so I still didn't have them open.

“ow…ugh I can feel a headache coming on” I start to rub the top of my head with my hand.

“It talks Darlings!?” said yet another female voice that sounded like she some kind of British person or…..something. What? What is wrong with these people? And why do they call me an 'it'?

I was kind of offended that these people keep calling me an 'it'. “Hey, you know this 'it' has….a….name?” When I opened my eyes I was shocked by what I was looking at. I saw 6 colorful small horses looking at me.

I took notice to what everyone looked liked. Starting left to right was a yellow pegasus with pink hair and butterflies on her ass. No wait, it's flank isn't it? Next was a white unicorn with purple hair and diamonds on hers. Next to that was a purple unicorn with a pink strip on her purple hair and a purple star and 6 smaller ones on hers. Next I was looking at a orange horse with yellow hair and a cowgirl hat and she had apples on hers. Then there was a light blue pegasus with Skittles or a rainbow colored hair and a lighting bolt coming out of a cloud on hers. The last was a pink horse with pink hair and she had three balloons on hers. Looks like two of them got the short end of the stick.

We all stood there looking at each other for a minute with nothing but silence. MOM. I started looking around me to look for her. No please no.

Ch. 2 The after party

We all stood there looking at each other for a minute with nothing but silence. MOM. I started looking around me to look for her. No please no.

I got up and I ran over to her, the hallway wasn’t very big for two people so I stood by her feet and started to shake her feet to get her to wake up.

“Come on wake up. Wake up,” 'But no one came' “I can’t lose you, not now. Not after what we have been through!” Still nothing happened. I turned around and looked at the 6 horses. They all had a look of worry on there faces. Maybe? “Can any of you do something, anything? Please this is my mother and she needs help,”

They looked among each other and all nodded. Then they started speaking to each other.
“Fluttershy,” said the purple one, Twilight I believe? “Can you check her and make sure she is alive and ok?”

The yellow one nodded her head and flew over to the head of my mother. She dropped to the ground and checked her breathing. After a minute she looked back at us and smiled and nodded. "She is still breathing Twilight," Thank God.

“Good!” said the purple one “Rainbow Dash," the rainbow one, duh "Applejack," the farmer looking one "and I will help carry her to the nearest hospital,” she then looked at me “Come on everypony!”

I nodded my head and we dashed out the door. Did she say ‘everypony'? O...kay. Definitely not in Kansas anymore. I had no idea where we were going so I stayed behind them. Not like I could keep up anyways. We ran for a good three to four minutes before we came to the hospital.
Once I got there they wanted me to answer a bunch of questions about my mother. I didn’t know most of these questions but I could answer the simple ones. Twilight also was there with a feather and piece of paper taking notes. The rest of her friends were there and waiting in the main room.

“Hello sir, my name is Doctor Stable. I am going to ask you a few questions so we can help your mother as much as possible.” I nodded my head “Ok. First what is your species and we’re are you from?”

“We are humans from the planet Earth and possibly a different dimension? I don't really know anymore,” Twilight and the doctor both started to write stuff down.

“Well that will make this a little harder. Do humans have any form of magic?”

“No,”

“What do you eat?”

“We eat a lot of things, I mean look at this!" I started messing with my fat. Doc didn't think it was funny so I stopped "Mostly fruits, veggies, dairy, and meat,”

They both stop and look up at me. “Y..you don’t eat ponies do you?” Twilight asked.

“No we don’t why woul....,”

They both signed with relief. At first I was confused by why they did that. Till it hit me in the freaking face.

“Oh....oh i’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. I didn't mean to scare you,”

“It’s fine." The Doc started "Though you should be prepared for the alternatives for you will not be getting meat here,” I nodded my head. “Ok next question, do you know what brought you here?”

“Well there was this white glowing rock. I picked up the rock and a white light blinded us. Then there was darkness. Then we were here,” Yup. I think I'm crazy.

“Well then I would guess that rock had magic in it," He sighed "Because of that magic it has put your mother into a magic coma of the sort. From our guesses she will be out for a least a month. I’m sorry but that is all we can offer at this time,"

“Thank you doctor. Thank you for everything. If you need anything from me just ask. Not like I have anything else to do. heh,” I replied with a shrug of my shoulders. He nodded his head and left the room. I turned back to Twilight. “I would like to thank you and your friends." I gave a little smile.

“Sure!” she smiled back and I nodded my head “If you don’t mind I would like to ask for you to come back to my house so your not all alone tonight,” I nodded my head. It's not like I have anything else to do. It even might be helpful in the future, if we're stuck here that is. “But first I think a proper introduction is at hoof,” she extended out her hoof “Hi! My name is Twilight Sparkle!”

I took her hoof in my hand “Hello Twilight. My name is Tru, Tru Peterson. Tru is spelled without an 'E' for future reference,” She nodded then we shook hands? Hoofs? We shook and after that she showed me to her home.

Twilight and her friends told me about all different things about this new world on the walk there. It was getting dark now so there isn't going to be a lot of ponies out and about, I hope. This land, it’s different, it's called Equestria and is ran by two princesses. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna and I learned the important info on them. I also found out a little more about Twilight and her friends on that walk.

Rarity is a fastatina and offered to make me some more clothes and Fluttershy takes cares of different animals in her home. Applejack is a apple farmer with her family on their orchard and Rainbow is apparently the fastest flyer in Equestria and is trying to get into this group called the Wonderbolts. Pinkie is the town party planner and tries her best to get everypony to smile,smile,smile and Twilight is Celestia's prized student and she was going to write about me in her next letter. I was fine with that, it couldn’t be that bad. Could it? Also Twilight and her friends were the protectors of this world. They used the 'Elements of Harmony' to stop any threat to Equestria. Yeah, I'm not pissing them off. They have used the elements against ponies like Nightmare Moon and Discord.

"So can anybody use these elements?" I asked

"'Anypony' and no," Twilight started "They are bound to us by which element we represent. I am the Element of Magic,"

"I am the Element of Generosity," said Rarity.

"I am the Element of Kindness," said Fluttershy. I think she's still scared of me.

"Ahm the Element of Honesty," said Applejack

"I am the Element of Loyalty," said Rainbow Dash. Yeah, I don't think I am going to like her very much.

"And I'm Laughter~" Pinkie said jumping over my shoulder. I jumped back when she did that. She landed on the ground and started hopping with us. "Hay your new to Ponyville" Stupid name for a town "so that means I have to through you a 'Welcome to Ponyville Party' or since your new to Equestria I can throw you a 'Welcome to Equestria Party'. It will be bigger and better than a normal 'Welcome to Ponyville Party'. Oh it will be so much fun. There will be drinks, and cake and i'll invite everypony in town and,"

"Pinkie," she stopped talking and looked at me while we were walking. "Pinkie, that will be fine but I am not a very social person, so how about we don't invite ALL of Ponyville. And I don't like cake," She stopped mid air. WHAT THE HELL? I stepped back to see if I was seeing everything right. Yup, there mid air stood Pinkie completely frozen. Everyone stopped and looked at us. "Did I break her? How is she doing that?"

"It's Pinkie. Trust me, it's just better if you don't ask," Twilight said. Yeah.....she might be right on that one. I started to wave my hand in front of her but nothing happened. Pinkie soon slowly fell back to the ground after a minute of floating there in place.

"If you don't like cake then what do you eat at a birthday party?" Pinkie asked

"Well I usually just have some ice cream and other things to make something out of it. But how about this, let's just wait till my mother is out in a month to do it, okay? That way she can also meet with the other ponies?" I asked looking at Pinkie, she didn't like that idea. I could see it in her eyes and it nearly broke my heart.

"Oh...okay," she said and started walking again. We all started heading back into town. Soon everyone else had to go to there own homes. They said they would come back tomorrow to get to know me better and we said our goodbyes. Then it was just me and Twilight. Soon we reached her home. It was a tree with a sign in front of it that said 'Ponyville Public Library'. This caught my interest.

“So your telling me that you not only live in a tree but it’s also a public library?” I asked

“Well yeah! Oh and also I have an assistant,” We entered the library as she called for her assistant I think “Spike! Spike we have company,” Twilight said walking away and into what looked like a kitchen. The 'living room' was were the library part was around the room was bookshelves full of books. To the right was a staircase upward. I then heard tiny footsteps come from the up stairs. I was expecting a pony but I was wrong, I was so very wrong.

A weird green lizard came out from behind the door. “Whoa, dude what are you?” He asked pointing at me. He then started to walk down the stairs and towards me. He didn’t keep his eyes off me as he came my way.

“Dude...what are you?” I said pointing right back at him. He was a purple and green lizard thing? He came up to me and I saw that he was about as tall as the ponies, to which they were about up to my waist. “Are you like a lizard or something?”

“No I’m a dragon,” He replied.

“He’s a baby dragon actually,” Twilight said coming back in from the kitchen. He said something under his breath. I saw he didn’t like that statement.

“Well Spike," I crouched down "my name is Tru and I am a human from” pause for dramatic effect “another world!” I said wiggling my fingers in front of his face.

“So why are you here?” he asked clearly not amused at my joke.

“Come here and we’ll explain it the best we can over some dinner,” We walked over to the dinner Twilight had made for us and at the table. While walking over there I had a question that just came to mind.

Once we got over there I saw what Twilight had made for us. For me and her we both had a simple salad but Spike had gems in his. He started eating the salad with the gems in it, Okay?Well then. Once we were sat down and eating Twilight explained the best she could to Spike. He had a few questions just like the others and I answered them the best I could. After a while he understood and was fine with it. Yeah that's what I need a fire breathing dragon to be mad or hate me. He had a few questions that no else decided to ask, which was nice instead of the ordinary questions everybody asked.

“Ok come on Spike let’s go write a letter to Princess Celestia!” Twilight then looked at me “Do you mind at least putting the dishes in the sink I’ll get them later,”

I nodded my head “Yeah. I think I can do that,”

“Great..thanks we will be up in the other room!” and just like that Twilight and Spike walk into the upstairs room. I picked up the dishes and brought them to the sink.

Yeah. No. There is no way I’m just going to leave this for her to do by herself. It is the least I can do for what her and her friends did for me. Heh...besides my mother would probably kill me if she found out. With that said I started doing the dishes.

I had just finished and put the dishes on the drying rack. It's getting pretty late. I checked my phone. Yeah just passed midnight. I walk to a window and looked outside and looked out at the night sky. I then walked back into the main room of the library when Twilight and Spike came out of the room up stairs.

“Ok the letter has been sent and she should get it tonight. Although we might not get a reply tonight,” That’s when Spike burped and a green flame came out of his mouth. This shocked me at first and I jumped back. She picked up the paper with her magic and read the paper he just burped. "Or we will get it right now?" she said

“Dear Twilight Sparkle,

I have just read your letter and I am interested in meeting the two you have talked about. I will be arriving in Ponyville tomorrow to speak with the creature myself. I also give him my apologies for what has happened to his mother. I am however glad to hear how you and your friends helped a random creature in their time of need. For this I wish to see all the element bearers when I arrive too. I shall be arriving sometime in the afternoon. I will set up a stage and show this creature to the rest of Equestria, if I deem these creatures peaceful to Equestria. I will also help find a way to send his mother, himself and their house back to there own world.

Yours Truly,

Princess Celestia," she read out loud.

"Well I have a big day tomorrow!" I said rubbing the back of my head but boy was that a mistake. My nerves shot from 0 to 100 in 10 seconds flat. I never was one to stand in front of a crowd or anybody important. But now I have to talk to the Princess of this world. Then I will be put on a stage for this whole world to see. She was also going to judge me and decide if I was peaceful enough. I mean I'm not really too keen on violence anyways so I think I am alright there.

"Yes, well you should go get some sleep, you look like you need it," Twilight then showed me to the guest bedroom. Although it was really just her basement with a mattress, pillow, and covers. Eh, I have sleeped in worst conditions. The bed was small being it was for ponies but that was fine. After laying there for a minute I had one thought before I had quickly passed out. Tomorrow is a big day. Tomorrow will determine the rest of our lives. Hopefully, for better.

Ch. 2.5 ReMix

I had just fallen asleep in the makeshift bed Twilight made for me in her basement. It wasn't to bad and the mattress felt like it was made out of feathers. It did get a little chilly in the basement but all in all, it was okay.

I opened my eyes to find I was in the bed still. I got up and on my way up the stairs I checked my phone. Ugh..I hate waking up so early in the morning. It was about 7:30 in the morning and I really didn't want to be up but I know I have too. But I got up anyways.

"Hey Twilight," she was sitting on a wooden chair at a desk in the corner in the living room. Once she heard me she turned around and waved at me with a smile. She turned back around and sat at the desk.

"I'm going to go see my mother before the day starts. I'll be right back!" I called to her but she didn't do anything. She just sat there looking at an empty desk. I shrugged it off and walked out the door.

The trip to the hospital was faster than the last time I remember it. It might just be that I had a lot of things to think about on the way there or that none of the elements were here to keep me company. Speaking of which, I thought, were is everybody? I stopped in the middle of the dirt road. My whole trip to the hospital and I had not seen a single pony out and about. Oh well, I shrugged it off and continued walking towards the hospital.

I walked into the hospital, looking around there was a white tiled wall, floor, and ceiling all around me. In front of me were more ponies, they all had the same look and colors though. There was stallions with a brown coat and a brown mane and tail. The others were mares with a white coat and a light pink mane and tail. All of their faces were blocked by a mask type of thing so I couldn't see them properly. I did however recognize the mare to be Miss Redheart. There multiple of the same looking ponies running in and out of one room. Out of curiosity I stepped forward.

I poked my head into the doorway to look inside the room, that way I didn't get in the way of the ponies running in and out. My heart stopped at the sight that I was seeing. Inside was my mother laying on a bed with white sheets and covers around her. To her left was the heart monitor and it was showing that she was flatlining. No! As soon as I saw this I ran to her and fell to my knees beside her, my eyes started getting watery. I grabbed ahold of her hand and held it tightly, hoping for a miracle.

"No, No, NOOO" I started crying and yelling into the hand I was holding "I should've been here, I should've stayed with you," I began rocking back and forth on my knees, still holding the hand up to my face. "Ple-ease you can't go, you just can't," I started sniffling while I talked "I-I need you," My voice was becoming higher pitched “It's just us, you and me, were the last two. Come on, just-just wake up, please!" The anger I had at myself was becoming more and more the longer she did not wake up "COME ON!" I yelled at her hand. "WAKE U-U-UP!" I started to full on cry into her hand now. “NO PLEASE, just wake up.”

“You should have been here” a familiar voice said to me. “I’m disappointed in you Tru. We made a promise after that DAY to make each other happy.” I looked up to see my mother sitting up and looking down at me with disappointment. “We made a promise and you broke it.” I didn’t know what to say. “I died here in pain and screamed for you. But you never came. Instead I died here without you. I thought I raised you better, to keep your promise, but I guess not.”

“Mother please. Stop. I’m sorry. If I could I would go back and…..”

“Yeah well you can’t can you?” She cut me off with a stern voice. “Have fun knowing you now have two deaths in your hands.” She got up and out of the stretcher. She turned her back to me sitting on the edge of the bed. She got up and forced her hand out of my grasp. Then she started walking down a long white hallway.

“No. No. NOOOO” I started running after her. “Your not going! Not while I’m here to...to...NO! I can save you.” She kept walking forward while I ran after her. The hallway seemed to get longer and longer. After a minute she was a good fifty feet ahead of me while running. “no. No. NO.” I start running faster trying so hard to catch her but nothing was working. Soon I got tired of the running and fell to my knees. I covered my face with my hands and cried into them.

Then there was a bright flash of light that shown through my hands. I removed my hands slowly to see a silhouette up in the sky. It was a pony but it was also a little bigger than the ones I have seen. It slowly made its descent towards me.

It finally landed in front of me. It was a pony with dark blue fur and a mane that looked liked it was the night time sky. She wore what I think is something royalty wears and had a moon butt tattoo.

“Hello creature” she spoke to me “my name is Princess Luna. I assume you are the creature my sister, Celestia, has told me about?”

"H-How? Wha-a? How are you here?" I asked as calmly as I could make my voice.

"I am the Princess of the Night. Because of this I am able to to walk among the dream realm. I help ponies with nightmares that may have an everlasting effect on them." She stopped waiting for me to respond, but I didn't. "Your dream realm wasn't hard to find."

"How so?" I asked

"You were having such a troubling nightmare that it, in a sense, called out to me. I have never felt a force like this though. So out of curiosity and wanting to help. I came forward." Luna said "Who is she?" She extended her hoof passed me. I turned around to see who she was pointing at.

"T-that is my mother." I answered trying not to remember the event that had just occurred.

"Right now she is in....is in....no I should be with her!" I started crying again. All of what she said to me came back and it was just to much to bear.

"Please. In order for me to help you through this I must know what happened." She said almost motherly.

"Me and my mother” I started “were brought here by a magical white rock. I picked up the rock and it knocked us out. I awoke to find the elements all around us. I found my mother and asked for the elements to help me take her to any kind of hospital they had. Right now my mother is in the Ponyville General Hospital, she is in a kind of magic coma and won't awake till another few weeks from now."

After I explained my whole story, I realized that my story has kind of been a little bit of everywhere at once. I found a weird glowing rock, a few seconds later i'm surrounded by colorful horses. Then I am in a hospital with my mother and then I am staying the night at a friend's house...... Friend....Yeah that sounds right accualy.

"I see and out of all of this. What are you scared of the most?" she asked.

"I'm scared that she....that she might not come back to me. I am afraid that she has made a perfect world in her own head that she might not want to leave. I’m scared that she may think that she has no reason to comeback." I responded.

"I...I see. While I can't do anything here, I can tell you that as of right now you need to be strong. You need to be strong for her when she comes back. You do not need to fret, she will come back. I have seen first hoof how strong a mother's love can really be and let me tell you, it is something else that no magic can replicate." She said. We both had a good chuckle to lighten the mood. I got up off the ground and wrapped my arms around her for a hug. I don't know why it just felt like it was the best thing to do at the time.

"Thank you. Thank you so much Princess Luna." I said still in a hug. She was only slightly smaller than me while standing which made the hug a little weird.

"No more of that Princess stuff. For now, please just call me Luna." she responded. Then she soon started hugging me back.

"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't tell you my name." I let go of the hug and started to wipe the tears on my face. I put on a smile and extended my hand for a shake.

"Hello Luna, my name is Tru Peterson. It's nice to meet you." I said with a warm and genuine smile.

"Hello Tru Peterson." She put her hoof in my hand and we shook hand and hoof. Soon we stopped and Luna spoke again. "My time is coming to a close Tru. I must return and lower the Moon for soon the sun will rise."

"Will you be there tomorrow with your sister." I asked

"No, I will not. For I am what most ponies call 'A night owl'. I sleep during the day and do my part of work at night." she explained. It makes sense.

"Thanks again Luna and until we meet again." I said.

"Yes till we meet again." She responded with a smile and wave as she 'ascended to the heavens'. "I do wish to see you soon my friend." And with that she disappeared.

Everything started going to black slowly. Friends with a Princess on first meet. I hope I can do the same soon with Princess Celestia. I looked back to see that my mother was still standing there. The once white emptiness was a light of grey. I walked up to my mother and held her in a hug, though she did not hug me back.

"Soon mother. I will be there when you are ready to wake again." I pulled back and looked into her eyes. They had been crying, that much was obvious. Then she spoke.

"I know and thank you." It shocked me that she spoke to me. I got ready to say something but she stopped me. "I will be waiting and I will never leave you behind." She started hugging me back.

For the reminder of the time we just stood there hugging each other til there was nothing but darkness around us. I felt my grip slowly let up, I pulled back to look to look at my mother just to see she was gone.

"Tru!" What? I turned around in a full 360 to look for who was calling me but found nothing.

"Tru!" they called again. My eyes felt heavy and slowly I fell asleep, I also started to fall backwards to, into the nothingness that was the void around me.

TRU!

Ch. 3 28 Days Later

So, it's been close to a month now since my mother and I have been in Equestria. As it stands, my mother is still in a coma in the hospital. I have been visiting her as often as I can this week. For this should be the week she wakes up. It’s only Wednesday but I can’t wait for her to wake up. Besides I need to be there for her, she has no idea what's in store for her when she wakes up.

Right now I am on my way over to the hospital on this lovely May afternoon. Still can't believe that the weather here is controlled by the pegasi. I am currently standing in front of the hospital doors getting ready to walk in.

As i walk in I am always greeted by the same face i have seen for the past month. Nurse Redheart is always standing there near the front doors waiting for me.

“Your a couple of minutes late Tru.” She said with a smile

“Eh. I took the seinect route.” I replied with a shrug of my shoulders.

“Well I have good news and bad new, come follow me.” She waved her forehoof for me to follow once she turned her back to me. We were walking towards my mother’s room which was near the far back of the hospital.

“Ok, good news first! Your mother is recovering well and may even be awake in the next day or two.” She gave off a certain feeling like she was proud about that. I can't really help but smile at her because of that. They did have nearly next to nothing about humans so I can understand.

“The bad news?” I asked

“She will not be able to do a lot. She will be very weak and therefore will need to stay home and rest up for the time being. She should have enough energy to walk from where I have heard your home is located to the town and back.” She said “But other than that she look to be as healthy as you.”

Yeah they had to use me for all different kinds of test, since I am the only one of my kind here that was in a healthy condition. I hate needles.

“Well that sounds better than I thought it was going to be. I can't thank you guys here enough nor can I think of a good way to repay you guys.”

“Its alright dear besides the Princesses already paid for everything remember.” She said

She was right. After the meet with Princess Celestia She told me that her and Luna were going to help aid me in any way I would ask. Obviously my first and only two thoughts were getting my mother back to full health and getting us home. So she is trying to help us with both of those things.

We reached the room that my mother was sleeping in. Redheart opened the door to the room and we walked in.

“How long are visiting hours?” I asked

“Well, usually they last till about eight o’ clock. But with this kind of a situation I could convince the staff here to let you stay overnight if you would like.”

“Yeah I would like that. Thanks.” I replied

“Your welcome but you will need to go home and get a new set of clothes and your own pillow and blanket. They will probably be a lot more comfortable than these things.”

“Okay” I said nodding my head “I will also have to go and talk with Pinkie about her waking up soon and how I will be with here with her till she wakes up.”

“Okay see back in a little bit” And with that she walked out and closed the door.

I walked up to my mother and held her hand. I will be back soon and I will be waiting right here beside you. Like I said I would. I don’t know if I saw it correctly but I swear I saw a faint little smile on her. So with that I walked out to go get my errands done and over with.

I am currently on my way over towards Sugar Cube Corner to let Pinkie know about my mother awaking soon. Oh and to ask Mr. and Mrs. Cake for some time off to spend time with my mother. Did I mention I work at Sugar Cube Corner with Pinkie? It’s really different baking, I never really thought I would be baking at any time in my life but I digress. Also it's never boring working with Pinkie. She always keeps me smiling while working.

I walked up to Sugar Cube Corner and opened the front door. Pinkie was on the other side of the counter with her back turned to the door.

“Hi and welcome to- oh hey Tru!” She said waving her hoof frantically through the air. “Whatcha doin’?” She asked

“Oh nothing Isabella just came over to let you know that that party you have been planning for a while now? Well you better get ready to execute ‘Operation: Party for two aliens’.” To say that she was happy would be an understatement.

After smiling for a minute she reached under the table and pulled out an army looking helmet and put it on her head. Then as loud as she could she yelled “SIR, YES SIR!!” and ran off towards the back. Her yell got the attention of one of the two other ponies I wanted to meet walking down the stairs.

“What's got her all excited?” Mr. Cake asked me

“I told her that I was told that soon my mother will wake up and she has been planning a party for us for a month now.” I said in a matter of fact tone.

“Yeah that’ll do it” He replied looking down the hall that Pinkie ran down.

“Also I wanted to talk to you guys about that too.” He turned his head back towards me. “I-If it’s not too much trouble, I would like some time off to help my mother. She will wake up soon but she will be very weak and will need help for awhile.”

“I’m sure that will be fine.” he said with a smile.

“Shouldn’t you go and talk it over with Mrs. Cake first?”

“No, I believe she will be more than okay with it.”

“Well thank you both and I will be back to work soon.” I said walking towards the door getting ready to leave.

“Take all the time you need Tru and make sure she gets better.”He said

I walked out the door and towards the hospital but before that I had to make one more stop.

I walked through the main road of the town because I can now. It's nice to walk through the town with all the town's folks not scared of ya anymore. I walked upon the town’s public library and opened the front door and walked right in.

“Hey Twilight! You here!” I called out into the empty room. It took a good minute before I got an answer.

“Tru! It's good to see you again, what can I help you with?” she asked walking down the stairs.

“Woah I show up and you just assume I need your help with something? That's kinda of a low blow in our friendship.” I said holding my hand over my heart.

“Oh…” she said fidgeting where she stands “I-I’m sorry! I-I didn’t mean it.”

“Nah” I said with a wave of my hand “It’s alright, I was just joking anyways.” I grinned, she had the cutest annoyed look on her face. “But I did want to tell and ask of you something. If you don't mind of course.” She calmed down before asking me a question.

“Sure! What is it?”

I am now walking back to the hospital to stay with my mother for the next few nights. I have a bag full of books, snacks, a pillow and a blanket. Now all I need is a tent and were good to go!

I finally reached the hospital after a couple minutes of walking and the sun was already starting to slowly set. When I reached the doors I found Nurse Redheart near the entrance helping another pony. She saw me and just nodded my way. I took that as the ‘All clear’ single and went on towards my mother's room.

I reached the room and unpacked my things. I planned on staying with her until she woke up. I layed down in my makeshift bed on the floor and got ready to sleep for the night.

“T-Tru?”
