A stranded young girl lay in the grass by a big tree, her incredibly long dirt filled hair seeping to her toes. She sat there, dirt infested clothes lay upon her. Some may call her homeless, some may make fun of her, but she made more sense out of life than you ever will. She knew that if life gave her the option to stay safe forever in mortal world, to not go into the portal in her backyard. Could you resist the calling to a different world? She couldn't, she ran into the portal, only 5 years of age. She was now 13, and she longed to see her family. Yet, she knew life would make it's choices. Her opinions didn't matter.

     Life controlled her.

Her name is Katie and she has lived in the Pony's World for 8 years, and has only found home in the Ghostly Hallows.\

She longed for companionship, but she knew ponies didn't trust her. The last time she saw them, was when she caused a ghastly rampage that almost killed several ponies. She was a wanted convict, since she was 7. She stood, bracing herself for the graveyard sometimes made noises.  Slowly walking forward to a gravestone, she began to think. Was this all for her? Was this all life was going to give her? A graveyard?"Life, hear me now!" she yelled. She sat down, leaning against a grave stone, and picked up a rock and threw it at a tree. Then she passed out in sleep.

"Do you think she's alive?" a voice, very primitive asked. Katie kept her eyes glued shut, in fear. "Yes, but I'm not sure what she is! I think she may be a...a..human!" said a know-it-all voice. "Do you think it's...Katie?? That girl the other ponies told us about?" said a shy timid voice. "YES I AM!!" Yelled Katie, who suddenly couldn't take it. She looked around, same graveyard. She saw 6 ponies. A shy timid one, a loyal fasttrotter, a smart devil (named for her horn), a primitive royal, a total country pony, and finally a party pony. "Who are you, why have you found me, and what do you want with me?" asked Katie, scared now.

  "We want to help you." said the primitive one.

And soon Katie knew she was safe. For now.
