The stallion with a guitar

I rubbed my slightly bruised nose with a hoof as I made my way back to the hospital bed before noticing something from the corner of my eye. A mirror. A slightly dusted mirror was sitting at the corner of the room and I was strangely kind of drawn to it.

I took a few tentative steps and stopped right in front of its tilted frame and reached a hoof to straighten it. I bumped my hoof against it and recoiled in shock as it let out a quick shock into my hoof.

''Ow.. what the fuuuu---'' I went from rubbing my hoof to looking back at the mirror in shock, its once reflective surface was now slowly fading into a dark shade of red. The mirror than started gaining movement in the form of a spiral forming at its base and slowly moving its way across its surface.

''That's not normal..'' 'no shit dumbass'

I slowly backed up from the mirror and stopped as a whisper caught my ears. I looked around the room and saw.. nothing. Just an empty hospital room with a sight smell of iron and vomit.

I flinched an I swear I jumped a few feet into the air as I was forcefully pushed back onto my back when I tried to turn around. The mirror now had a red tentacle that phased through and gripped onto my foot.

''Ahh hell no! not more tentacles!''

I rapidly started stamping on the tentacle with all my might as it tried to pull me into the mirror. It was slowly gaining ground on me as I fought to crawl backwards with my two front hooves, yells and curses were coming out of my mouth, I reckoned they were loud enough to hear from outside the room.

My strength was thinning as I was dragged half way into the mirror while I was gripping onto the sides of the mirror for dear life. I mustered up enough power to scream out one more time before I closed my eyes in resignation and felt my neck pass through into the cold insides of the mirror.

My eyesight was filled with red as I was now up to my nose when I finally heard the door slam open and a simultaneous gasp before I felt two arms grab underneath my arms and pull with enough force for my whole head being able to make itself back into the slightly colder hospital room.

I opened my eyes and was met with a purple blob in my face, presumably the one pulling me back in. I mustered the remaining strength I had and made one more push with my front hooves before I suddenly felt the grip on my back hoof disappear and I was sent flying into the one trying to save me.

We got impressive air, as soon as they crashed into the wall with a painful 'oof' I broke my crash with them as we slowly slid down and onto the floor.

I lifted myself off the person and let myself fall into a sitting position as I looked at my savior. To my surprise and utter confusion, it was twilight sparkle?

I stared dumbfounded at 'the living and breathing twilight sparkle!' I watched as she shook her head to rid the dizziness and looked around before falling on me. I averted my eyes and looked at the floor.

''Are you alright?'' I raised my head and looked back at her.

''Uhh y-yeah... I guess'' as fine as I can be after something like that. I raise a hoof to the back of my head as I gradually brought my line of sight to her, 'The Twilight Sparkle' I couldn't help but feel this whole thing was just a dream.

It took me a few seconds before I noticed she had gotten up and moved across the room towards the now normal looking mirror. I slowly brought myself to a stand and wobbled a bit before nodding to myself.

Twilight was at the moment, analyzing the mirror from a safe distance while I, was awkwardly standing in silence.

''Well I guess that's good for what just happened''. She brought a hoof to her muzzle before looking back at me in question.

''How exactly.. did this happen Mr ?'' she looked back at the mirror before walking closer until her muzzle was just a few feet from bumping into it.

''Uhh.. Dylan!'' she turned her head back a bit at my outburst with a raised brow. ''Dylan? what a strange name for a pony''.

''Well Dylan.. to be honest i'm still wondering why this mirror decided to try and pull you inside of it.. would you?'' she raised a hoof to the reflective surface of the mirror and rubbed it a bit.

''Truthfully.. I have no idea, though it might have something to do with... '' I let the rest of my sentence come to a mumbled as I looked up at where Twilight was and felt my eyes widen. Twilight was not paying attention to the red blob that was slowly slithering its way up to where her hoof was on the mirror from the inside.

''Well Dylan, my name is Twilight sparkle! the local librarian and element of harmony bearer''. She ended the sentence in a smile as she let go of the mirror and went to walk towards me. Big mistake.

The blob reeled back and before it could do anything, I took action and rushed forwards to where she was.

''Watch out!'' her eyes raised in confusion before she looked back in shock as the blob struck through the mirror and launched towards her, but before it could reach her, I crashed into her and the momentum pushed her away and let the blob latch itself onto my face.

I brought both hooves to my face and tried to get a grip on the blob, that was now encapsulating itself around my head, slowly.

Trying to wrench it off with my hooves did no good, as it only meant my hooves getting stuck to my face.

''Fucking get off me!''

I immediately tried standing on my back legs, before a jolt in my spine sent me crashing painfully on my back. The pain let out a curse from me and the blob took the chance to seep inside of my mouth, reducing my words to a painful gurgle.

I twisted and turned around on the floor before deciding on something, the lack of air was getting to me as I rolled onto my hind legs and deliberately bashed my head into the floor. Repeatedly, though it only caused me pain and helped further asphyxiate me.

'Fucking do something element of fucking magic!!'

My lessening mental prayers were answered when I heard her voice yell out to me.

''Hold on!''

Than everything went black.
