Supposed Insanity
Escape
Previous ChapterNext ChapterShe untied me from the table and let me up.
“What are you doing here? And why are you...human?” She smiled at me.
“It's good to see that you're still yourself.” I chuckled but was still hurting. The shocking took a toll on my mind and I grew weary from simple thought. It almost hurt to think.
“You didn't arrive after a few days, so we assumed something bad happened. We used that teleportation pad to get to you.” I stood up and was steady for a few seconds. But the very instant that I tried to walk, I stumbled and fell to the ground.
“Well... Good thing you all came to help me. I don't think that I would've been able to take much more of that.”
Twilight put my arm over her head and hoisted me up.
“Thanks.” I said. I was able to move my legs, but I was to weak to support myself. As we limped down the hall, we passed by another nurse sitting at a computer. This one had bright, curly, pink hair.
“We've got him, lets go!” Twilight shouted.
“Okie dokie lokie!” She responded. I thought so. Who else could it have been? She sprung from her chair and followed the train of people down the corridor.
We passed by a few other rooms with other patients still inside. It seems that only the workers left. We kept walking. As we passed by the rooms Twilight reached out and knocked on one's door without losing speed. A woman with blue curled hair emerged and followed. Rarity... A few doors later Twilight knocked again and this time a blonde woman followed. AppleJack. They did some planning here before coming to get me!
“HE'S ESCAPING!!!” Terrance's voice pounded through the hallways. I flung my head around to be greeted by about four angry guards running at us with tasers in hand.
“AppleJack! Take Ryan!” Twilight dropped me just as AppleJack was wrapping my arm around her neck. Twilight turned to face the guards and held up both hands. Her eyes glowed a bright violet and a pulse of energy emitted from her palms, flinging the guards back to the far side of the hallway. Freaking Jedi!
We had some more time now. We rounded the corner and sprinted down the hall. The exit was insight, freedom growing ever closer.
“FREEZE!” Two guards shouted as they sprang from either side of the hallway. AppleJack and Rarity acted at once. Rarity, raising her hand and enveloping one guard in her blue aura and launching him into a cell. The door was closed and locked behind him. AppleJack simultaneously roundhouse kicked the other guard directly in the chest, sending him flying across the floor. He flung himself around gasping for breath. You do not want to get in a fight with these ponies!
Outside a rusty looking car was waiting. A young woman with multicolored highlights in her hair was sitting in the driver's seat, head banging to some sort of rock music. Rainbow Dash apparently. Fluttershy sat it the passenger seat with her hands cupped over her ears. Twilight flung the door open and AppleJack helped me into the back. The rest piled in.
“Go!” Celestia commanded. Rainbow slammed on the gas and the vehicle rocketed forward. We didn't even get a block away before an unmarked van flew from the hospital and sped after us. Rainbow Dash noticed this and pushed down even harder on the gas.
“This music is pretty awesome!” Korn played boomed throughout the car.
“We don't have anything like this back in Equestria!” I chuckled a bit. But I was overcome with dizziness and my vision blurred again.
Twilight put her palm on my forehead. Her eyes glowed again and warmth rushed through my body. My head stopped hurting and my vision returned.
“Did that help?” She asked me.
“Yes. Thank you.” I returned. The van behind us significantly increased speed. They were gaining on us and we didn't have a very go-... Wait... A thought forced it's way into my head. Twilight taught me to get someone to side with me. Only one use. But it looked as good a time as any. I turned and looked into the van behind us. Terrance was in the passenger seat. I could see pure rage in his eyes. But I didn't think much of him and instead focused on the driver. I concentrated... It felt as if an energy left my body. It left me feeling tired afterward but once I opened my eyes, I noticed that the van was slowing to a stop. I cheered. The others saw why and they cheered as well. But our victory was short lived. The driver was flung from the vehicle and Terrance took his place.
“Rainbow Dash! Up ahead!” Fluttershy pointed out the window towards an abandoned building. Various wooden boards covered the windows and the door hung open, half of the hinges missing. Rainbow Dash shifted gears and spun the car and drove towards the building. We were getting closer to the building. Really close! I leaned up in my seat.
“Rainbow Dash?!” She smiled.
“I know what I'm doing!” She shifted gears again and made a hard right, spinning the car around the side of the building and into a garage opening. In front of us was a large metal pad waiting in the center of the room. The inside was considerably small compared to the outside of the building. We all scrambled out of the car and onto the pad. Celestia threw a switch. After a few moments, light consumed everything.
When I open my eyes again, it appears that we are still in the same place. Only... I am a pony! We made it!
“Thank you guys! I coul-” The pad lit up again.
“They are coming through! Ryan, get back to the library! We'll handle them.” Twilight ordered. I did as I was told and flew out of the building, back towards Ponyville. I could only wonder what would happen, just nothing bad I hoped.
The pad went off again. About three ponies stepped off.
“WHERE IS HE?!?” Terrance screamed.
