The Lost Memories
The Dream
Load Full StoryNext ChapterI stepped on the floating platform in a dark room. I looked all around me, nothing there was to see, all but the platform and myself. A techie screen appeared out of no where in front of me. Moments later a dark figure showed up on the screen. I couldn't detect who it was, but it looked awfully familiar.
"Identify yourself," the figure commanded.
"Princess Eclipse," I replied nervously.
"This is the one," the figure said. "Prepare the tests immediately." The figure commanded. I knew he wasn't talking to me, but he was talking to someone else? All I knew is that the figure wasn't alone- where ever he was.
"I've been waiting a long time for this, Princess Eclipse," He said. He evilly laughed as the screen blacked out. The platform fell, and as do I. I tried to fly back up but the pressure wouldn't let me. I fell, into the deep dark abyss.
I opened my eyes to find myself in a cylinder filled with some type of chemical liquid. A tube was connected to my mouth to keep me breathing. I slowly looked around as my eyes fixed from being blurry. I saw scientist ponies surrounding me. They where walking around with clipboards levitating or held in their hoof, depending on the species they were. The ponies who were closer to me were pushing buttons. I could guess I was in a machine. Am I being tested? That dream wasn't true, was it? I closed my eyes and thought, "Never mind that, you've got to get yourself out of here." I opened my eyes to look around to use to my advantage to escape. Nothing. Nothing until I saw a lever that said drain and another that said release. I used what ever magic I had left to pull that lever. Carefully, I pulled it down without letting any trace that I was trying to escape. As soon as I pulled it down an alarm went off. The liquid around me started to drain as the ponies noticed that it was draining. "I have to get out of here faster!" I thought. I started to kick the glass cylinder, hoping it would crack. Fortunately the glass was pretty thin. Within a few kicks the glass shattered as the liquid poured out, pushing the ponies out of the way. As they started to recover, I took off the mask I had on my mouth and made a ran for it.
I heard one of the ponies getting up and pulling the emergency alarm to call the guards. With that I ran fast as I could to get out of the lab when suddenly two guards blocked my way. I was feeling weak and could not try to push them out of the way. I used what ever magic I could to teleport out. It failed. I looked up to see a vent, and for some reason it was open. I flew up there with a beat of my wings and crawled through the vent.
I had absolutely no idea where I was going, but if I followed the sound of the crickets of the night, I knew I would get out of there, some how. As I crawled through the vent, I started to flashback on what just happened. The scientists, the lab, the dream, it just didn't make sense. I don't even know who I am, or where am I, or what my name is. Ugh, this is so frustrating! Why can't I remember anything!? I ran into a vent wall which sounded an echo down the tunnel. "That was probably not good..." I thought as I pushed the vent door opened. Outside! Finally! I landed on the soft grass and then ran as fast as I could to get away from there.
I started to fly up to the mountain where a big city is. I flew higher, to the very tip and landed in a dark cave. "Darkness" I thought. "Somehow, comforting, yet disturbing." I walked into the cave, un-prepared for what might come at me. I heard low grumbling in the cave. Sounded like a dragon, but what type of dragons live up here? I continued to walk until whatever was growling pounced on to me and pinned me on the ground. There I saw the face of a dragon, but i wasn't just any dragon, it was... a universe dragon? The dragon started to charge up it's power. It's power, I could see the universe. All the planets and stars were there. On the moon, I saw, a pony? No, an alicorn. She looked so familiar, like someone who was close to me. I pulled myself together and pushed dragon off me as it released it's power onto the walls of the cave. I kept pushing it until it fell down the mountain. Pacing in stress, I finally curled up in the darkness to sleep. Before I closed my eyes, I saw a little wildflowers the layed next to me. I looked at the full moon, it's brightness filled me up with strength. It felt strange, but good. I looked back at the flower and took a deep breath. I used my magic on the flower, I had no idea what I was doing but I did it anyway. The wildflower opened it's pedals. What I was doing, I was not sure. I continued to use my magic as the flower lifted from the ground. It started to transform into something. I was in the vision or a memory, and I saw my self. I was defending some ponies and once again the looked so familiar.
"Get close to me, now!" I yelled in the vision. The self me in the vision was using a power to defend the other ponies, but from who? Suddenly, my powers went chaotic and exploded sending poison purple darkness into the stormy sky, leaving a huge hole in the middle of the clouds. In the vision the other ponies were gone, but I layed there on the ground weak. I was lifted into the air and put in the back of a cart. 2 ponies pulled the cart away. Then I saw the same figure as I did earlier in the night. It looked like a male, and by the looks of it I'm guessing he was their leader? I was filled with mixed emotions of what I just saw. The vision dissolved and I layed my head down as a tear rolled down my cheek.
