Open Your Eyes
A Life Of Choices
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAbout 2 minutes later, I hear a powerful female voice.
"Hello, fellow human. I'm Princess Celestia"
When she says It... I start to remember every single thing, like waking up.
"You've been in a 2 month coma"
"The explosion that day, was a missile fired by mistake"
"It was very strong, but fortunately, you survived"
"They found you in the floor, with the eyes open"
"You don't need to worry about your house, the government reformed It for you"
So... The voices!! The heartbeat machine!! Everything makes sense now... Thank God I'm alive...
"You're much stronger than I thought, fellow human"
...
"You can be free now, or stay In-"
When she says it, the same light than before shone, interrupting her voice.
But... Stay where?
For some reason, I take a deep breath and gasp... opening my eyes again.
I see my best friend, who cries instantly.
"He's awake... HE'S AWAKE!!"
"What happened? Was I dead?"
"Oh my Gosh... Brian! You're alive! Thank you, God!!"
"Are you really here? You're the voice! I heard you crying for days... You didn't abandon me!"
"Why would I do this? You're the best thing that could happen in my life!"
"Bro, you're not going to believe, I was in Equestria! I met everypony! I know, that was only a hallucination or a dream, but It was so real!"
"This must be so cool!" "Unfortunately you needed to stay in coma for this to happen"
We both laugh.
"In the end, Celestia said that I could choose to be free or stay in somewhere... What does it mean?"
"When she said that... I woke up... I couldn't choose"
"I think you chose to be free, because you're here. If you had chosen to stay, you would keep in Equestria"
"Oh... Ok..."
"I know that Equestria is much better than here, but... At least you went to there for 2 months!"
"In Equestria, it was actually 2 weeks!"
"Wow, that's crazy! The time is very long there"
"I know!"
Now a few years have passed. I have a new job that pays much better. I'm a pharmacist. I can finally visit my friend.
On the first day of work, a young man bought a new promethazine sleeping medicine. It is sold without a prescription.
I think it's very dangerous, but there's nothing I can do about it.
If I think hard... I still like Equestria...
I'm literally trying to find a way to come back there... When I said that to David he got mad.
I know, that's unthankful, cause I survived a fricking missile... But I still suffer... There's something still missing...
...
I don't care, I want to come back...
"CELESTIA! I CHANGE MY MIND! I WANT TO COME BACK!!"
"SAVE ME, PLEASE!!"
I scream till my throat hurts.
"Rainbow dash... Twilight... Fluttershy... Applejack... Pinkie... Rarity... I need you..."
I go to my room to search for some things that I could try.
Some hours later, I sleep on the computer.
...
"You didn't have time to choose before... Which one do you choose? Be free, or stay in this world?"
"But in one condition: You can't go back this time"
Wait, my friend was wrong!
"I want to be free!"
"Are you sure?"
"YES!"
...
"You chose to be free"
