Hidden

I snuck out of the crawlspace when mom was at work today. I rummaged around the basement for something to do, and I found a massive box of books. Most of them are boring romance novels, excluding a few of the romance novels, which were actually romance-thriller novels. I found one that really caught my eye, it's a story of a mare who is in a very similar situation to me, she is trapped in a room, hiding with her family from invading changelings. I've not got very far in the book, due to my poor lighting and reading ability, but I'm a smart filly, I can figure out words, especially since I found a dictionary in the box, so that helps.

I listened to the radio while reading. They talked about how being an Earth pony or pegasus made you better than unicorns, cause of some words I didn't understand, though what I did understand, it wasn't very nice. They used curses and swears, calling unicorns filth and trash, pathetic, and that Earth ponies and Pegasi where the only true races, that unicorns deserved to die or be enslaved. I turned the radio off when the whispers in the back of my mind started to agree with them.

It's been a few days since I wrote in this diary though, I didn't have much to write down the past few days. Mom hasn't spoken to me since she gave me the notebook. I hope she brings me down some food though, I'm down to a loaf of bread and a small bottle of water. Mr. Cheesewheel showed up earlier, and I played with him for a little bit, letting him climb around in my mane, as I daydreamed about the past, thinking about how I'd like to meet some of my friends again.

Oh, mom just got home, and she brought home a friend of hers. Her friend is an extremely mean pegasus. I know this because she's been over before, and every time she's insulted unicorns, even insulting me and dad to her face. She's even said that she's glad unicorns have been made nearly extinct. I'm going to try and ignore her as I keep writing a bit.

I had a dream about a field of lilacs last night. I remember walking through the field, with five ponies walking beside me, though their bodies were complete blank, just black, no discernable features. I kept walking, before stopping at a small clearing with six large circular stone pedestals laying a circle around a small obelisk. I woke up shortly after that though, and I don't remember much more.

Two days until my birthday, I hope Mr. Cheesewheel comes out and celebrates it with me. I'd like to give him a gift. I understand that it's my birthday, but I like to give gifts rather than receive them. I've been creating a small hat for him, made of small things I found here and there. It's complete, and I will give it to him so he can embrace his true adorableness.

I wonder what happened to Rarity and Twilight? Did they escape to the Crystal Empire? Did they get hung or castrated? I hope they didn't, I hope they are okay, and I hope their friends are on their side. Maybe they're trying to fix what made the Earth ponies and the pegasi upset with the unicorns? Maybe one day I'll wake up and I'll be in my bed upstairs, and the past month was an awful nightmare.

Goodnight, Diary.
