Prologue: Nightmare dreams and Investigation.

Load Full Story

It was a rainy night outside, but not the normal kind of rain today.

The only thing that's different is the unusual eerily red moon.

At the closed entrance store shop is a male boy holding an umbrella.

His mouth is frowning, not really in the mood of feeling the weird atmosphere. He kept looking around on seeing that no one's outside except for him and a few vehicles all locked. Not even the sounds of the animals around this place.

"Where in the hell am I?" He asked himself.

"I swear, I was right in the middle of a train station. It couldn't have been possible for me to get onboard without a ticket, pretty sure that I must've dozed off."

He called out for anyone to answer him.

"Hello? Is anyone out here?"

No sign of any calls, but only the downpour of the continuous rain.

"Great, I better go find a near police station and make a call to my buddy. Assuming that he's up and not laid off screwing around in the bar or some place else.

Sighing, he turns to walk right away from the closed shop.

While he continues walk outside in the rain, he didn't know that he was passing by some illusions of abandoned buildings. The only difference is these particular ones having company names on them. One with an H, second different building with an H, third having a M, fourth a C, fifth a V, and so on and so forth.

Then, the man stops for a moment and spots someone on the bench.

He quickly goes over to the person before stopping right next to them. He saw that the figure is a female, given the appearance of having long red hair. Plus, she was looking down for some reason and all soaking wet.

"Uh miss, are you okay?" He asked.

No reply back, but he scratches his neck.

"Jeez, I don't have time of waiting too long. Okay miss uh, I'm going to put my umbrella next to you for a bit of comfort from the rain, Whatever's troubling you, just um walk to your family's home or if you're lost, go to the police station or any other place and you'll make a call to your mom or dad."

He then, carefully places the open umbrella right next to her from the pouring rain. Surprising though, notices that she's using her left hand to grab the umbrella. Taking his hand away, he also saw the girl's head glancing up to him.

"Okay, uh nice chat with you. So um, see ya later."

Satisfied with the good will, he immediately goes to walk away from her.

"Always be prepared for a spare."

He takes out another umbrella from his right hip and opens it up.

Upon walking up further on, he hears some footsteps behind him. Turning his head, he saw the same girl from the bench following. Shaking his head, he points his left hand to the direction behind the girl.

"Uh miss, that's the wrong way. Go to where I'm pointing my hand at. You don't have to follow me, you know? I'm sure someone out there can perhaps help you out. I can't have anyone following me since I'm in a hurry to go back home."

However, he didn't get response.

The only weird thing is, he can hear a giggle from her.

What's more ominous is that her smile and eyes are looking right at him.

'Okay, this is a bit unnerving and scary for me.'

Turning around, he walks a bit faster away from this strange girl.

Noticing her footsteps, he slowly picked up some speed and running away. He goes to more buildings and tries to hide from this girl. Picking out a hiding spot right near the trash bins, he runs to cover and wait for her to by.

He can hear the sounds of footsteps walking away.

"I think I lost her." He murmurs, sighing in relief.

Walking out of his hiding spot, he walks to pass by each buildings.

In his minutes alone, he then spots something of lights in the corner.

"Huh?"

Going in closer, he peeks out and his own eyes widen in horror.

There was deceased bodies everywhere and decorations destroyed.

Only one that is alive in the pile, a little kid crying of holding something.

"Good lord almighty, I never expected this horrifying than the last investigations I have come across. Speaking of, where is anyone, police, or paramedics around here? Shouldn't they be handling this situation?"

He looks around him with no signs of anyone nor the stalking girl.

"Okay, time to be the big brother or father to the little kid."

He carefully walks to not step on the deceased people. Covering his own mouth and nose in order to not throw up from smelling deceased, he eventually arrives to see that the boy's holding onto a torn up stuff animals.

"Kid, are you okay?" He asked him.

The boy apparently didn't hear him and continue crying, holding his animals tightly.

"It's okay kid, I'm not going to hurt you. Look, I don't know exactly on what happened here or why's everyone dead, but I'm sure that I can take you to the nearest hospital or police station. Just, grab onto my hand and-"

However, his conversation is cut short when something above appears.

The man takes a step back in shock of what he's seeing up close.

A tall giant brown clothing owl right in front of the owl is loudly cawing at the man.

"OH JESUS!!!" He shouted in shock.

Quickly, he turns around and makes a run for it. He saw behind him the owl flapping it's wings and going after. In panic, he goes around the building corners in order to escape this monstrous owl bird.

Each figure having the feature of the Canterlot symbol.

The nerd girl, athlete girl, farmer girl, caretaker girl, fashioner girl, and a party girl.

'Run away, run away, run away, runaway, runaway!'

He saw some strange roots popping out of the ground and tries to grab him.

Jumping out in time, he glances up to see another monster hopping onto the buildings. The only thing that he saw is the monster's ears and tail, meaning that it's either a mouse or rat. Turning up another corner, he spots some tentacles, glitches, time clocks, wolves, winged devils, angelic figures, humanoid hybrid species, undead flesh, ocean beasts, and more of these things appearing at every opened spaces.

'Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit!'

Gathering up his breaths, he turns another corner to see some more people like the stalking girl. Each of them wearing symbol on some kind of Canterlot High School holding melee weapons as they spotted him, there eyes widening and mouths in a grin with a creepy smile.

'Oh fuck, give me a break for once god!'

He manages to dodge the weapons in time, but got a few cuts on him.

Stealing a machete from one of the attackers, he runs off and can hear these beasts & monsters closing in on him. Unfortunately, he's backed into a corner inside the shop with no exits nor any secret passage way.

"Stay back, stay back, I have a weapon with me! I don't know on who you monsters are or want to attack me, but I haven't done anything wrong in my whole entire life! I'm not going down without a fight than some of those worst action movies ever!" He yells at them.

He saw the monsters breaking down the shop and getting closer to him.

"Stay back! LEAVE ME ALONE! GET AWAY FROM ME!"

Once they were inside, they were growling at him with weapons in hands.

He notices a large shadow on the ground forming.

Glancing up, his pupil eyes shrunk as he spotted giant hands up above.

"This can't be real, this can't be real, there's no way that's physically or mentally possible. Nothing about this whole mess makes sense. What is even going on around here? Why am I in the middle of this horror? Is there anybody out there that save me?!"

He saw the two hands coming closer as they were going to grab him.

"GET AWAY! GET AWAY! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"


"AHHHHHHHH!!!"

The man screamed out of his chair and opens up his eyes in fright.

Hyperventilating, he looks to see that he's in an office.

He also spotted someone at the opened door looking at him.

"Dude, are you okay? Was it a nightmare or something?" The voice of a male talked to him.

Calming down, the man breathes in and out.

"Y-Yeah, I don't remember of sleeping in an office. Only at the train station."

"Seriously?"

"Yep, it must've been a bad meal that I perhaps ate. Why do you ask?"

"Justin, buddy, I hate to break it to you, but you've been asleep for 26 hours. I kept knocking on your door office, but you didn't even heard me. What's going on with you? Are the pills not working from the hospital that gave them to you?"

The man now known as Justin froze. Upon hearing this information, he didn't know that he slept for that long in his own office room. He then sighs, rubbing on his forehead and feeling stupid of being up on his work schedule.

"Uh s-sorry about that Richard, I don't know on why I locked the door or how I've fallen asleep for so long. I'll try not to do it again. S-So um, what do you need me for exactly? I didn't quite catch up on what's going on around here."

Richard, from the open office, groans and sighs before responding back.

"Firstly though you blockhead nerd, go home and take a nice hot shower. Second, make sure that you're eating properly and full from now on. Third, we're gonna need you on this missing report case."

Justin pauses at this info.

"I'm guess that it's bad news?"

"Yes, it's been growing worse around here. All over the world, the news broadcast reports of more than 500 missing and not a single cop nor military couldn't find them. The only lead we have is the leaks of eye witnesses reported of spotting a strange shrine mansion near the missing people's locations before that building mysteriously vanishes."

Richard hands the paper over to Justin.

"I never expect this to be much worse than it is now."

"Right, but now you have to go home cause you seriously reek. We've got a lot of work to do later on this upcoming weeks. Grab whatever you can for this case and I'll go make some phone calls for the trip."

Richard leaves the office and Justin reads the newspaper.

"This just keeps getting weirder and weirder for me. First, I'm getting some sleeping problems. Then, the nightmares in my own dream. Now, the missing report cases is piling up. Just what in the heck is going on this damn world?"

He stretches his arms up and his body next before packing up.

Unaware to him, outside of the wall building of rain is an invisible figure floating in the air. The figure heard the conversation before slowly vanishing. Neither anyone outside saw the figure in the air.


Author's Note

Since there hasn't been a lot of crossover MLP:EQG x VTuber stories. Plus, a part if this idea is inspired by a certain favorite story that I've read on Wattpad. Anyways, I hope everyone's doing okay and I'll see you later!

Now, to enjoy my birthday and go watch The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
