Chapters It will all be clear soon
"Ugh. My head" I groan as i rustle in my bed. I don't remember going back home after the party last night. I sighed and thought that maybe I just had a little too much too drink last night. I slowly opened my eyes as I began to think out loud. "Actually, any drinking my be too much for me. Considering that I am such a light weight." I then felt a little guilty. "I shouldn't have gone to that party in the first place. Mom is..." I paused and choked back a tear when i processed what I said. Why do I keep doing that to myself? "I mean Aunt Liz was probably worried about me." Even though I am usually very careful about what I do; I would sometimes make stupid mistakes that lead to me getting in trouble. Aunt Liz wasn't too overprotective of me; it was just that she began to stop trusting my decisions once it became apparent that I was not too good with making the right choices. "I mean, its not my fault I am bad at making decisions." I say loudly; then I became a little sad as I thought about it. "Maybe it is my fault." I say sadly. "I don't blame her for keeping me on a short leash, I wouldn't trust my self either."
I tried to take my mind off that thought and instead focus on getting up. Then I thought about the party. Oh man, I think I almost got to make out with Billy at the party. If only I didn't blow it.
Before I could think of anything else about the party. I noticed something very... odd. "This isn't my room." I said getting up out of the bed. For some reason, I began to feel weird (besides the reason that I woke up in someone else's room). I began to move my leg to get out of the bed when all of a sudden, a searing pain shot through my body. I shot out of the bed and fell onto the cold wooden floor. I looked at my legs and noticed that I had four of them, and that I had hooves. I just stared at them and it took me a few seconds to process what I saw, then I jolted up in horror and again felt pain searing though my body.
It took me a minute to stand up; while still in pain, I did my best to ignore it and instead looked over to a mirror that was in the room. I walked over to it and took a close look at the figure inside it. In the mirror; I saw a... pony? I felt confused, and the pony in the mirror also did. I just stared for a bit, trying to process what the pony meant. My eyes widened in horror as I finally realized that I was the pony. I was completely shocked to say the least, but I didn't jump away this time; instead I just stared at my self through the mirror.
I noted that I looked sort of cartoon-like, except my skin I mean coat was a bright red. . My eyes were extremely large and were green. My hair, I mean mane was a bright yellow. What surprised me again, was that I had a red horn on my head.
"I'm a mare, and a unicorn?" I thought out loud. I began to look at the rest of my body, when I stopped and realized something, something that caused me to freeze in place. The pony in the mirror didn't say anything when I had talked.
I think it could read minds because all of a sudden, it began to smile. Only the fact that it was a mirror and that it couldn't hurt me, kept me from screaming as I tried to just look away and maybe it would disappear. Before I could walk away from the smiling pony, it said "Are you sure about that?" in a demonic voice.
It then jumped through the mirror and tackled me. I screamed as he laughed over me. His laughs sounding demonic.
I crashed through the window and fell two stories onto the cold grass. It was night out and I struggled to get up. Before I could even attempt to walk away, I found my self being pulled by some unknown force taking me back into the house. I began to scream and plead for someone to save me, when all of a sudden I heard a woman's voice call out to me and say "Wake up Samantha! Wake up before it really takes you." Then the darkness of the house engulfed me.
I jolted out of the bed and was panting for air. "Just a nightmare." I told my self. I looked around to find that I was in the same room as before. I looked over to the mirror to find that my doppelganger wasn't there, but also that nothing else was there too. I got out of the bed, noting that I had the covers were drenched in my sweat. I walked over to the door, which now had a handle, and attempted to use my mouth to open it (considering I didn't know how to use my hooves to open it). As I was trying to get it open, however, I heard a startling moan. It almost sounded like something want me to go out there. I whimpered as I remembered my two choices: Leave my self to the mercy of things that may not have any; or jump out the window. I winced as I remembered how well that went last time, but I didn't want to find out what was moaning.
I walked over to the window and jumped out; breaking the glass and landing on my side as I scraped against the cold dirt. I felt an almost unbearable pain all over my side, but I did my best to ignore it and I just ran; trying to escape before the door would open again and I would get pulled into the house. I ran into the forest, not stopping until I was tripped by some roots on the ground. It got harder to run, so I eventually just started to walk as fast as I could. I eventually noticed that I was limping as I was having more and more trouble moving my legs. Then I couldn't move any more. I just collapsed as I heard something trotting over to me, then I blacked out.

This is my first story, and... I was kind of hoping that we would of had a "Scary" tag for stories by now.

You know what is kind of funny about my predicament earlier, with the room? One of my favorite songs is "White Room" by Cream. Just thought you would like to know. Anyway, so here I am; I just blacked out after escaping that creepy house and hearing something trotting to me. Fine time to fall asleep.
I wake up not in a bed or on a floor of any kind, but surprisingly in the air, surrounded by a purple light around me. I screamed as loud as I could, and then the purple light went away as I dropped to the cold grass floor. It was nighttime, so I couldn't see too well around me, and I think I got a black eye from tripping over so many roots. Long story short, I couldn't see, like at all. I also couldn't move, a side-effect of falling on the ground too much. While I was struggling to get up (and failing miserably),
I heard someone ask "What happened to you? Are you ok?" It sounded very concerned and also sounded just a bit older than I was (much like how a twenty-seven year old girl compares to a fifteen year old girl, with me being the fifteen year old, and the voice being the twenty-seven year old).
I was going to come up with something witty to say, but all that I could say was "Owwwwww." The voice of the girl I heard stepped into my line of sight. The first thing I noticed was that she was a unicorn like me. She had a lavender coat, and a pink and purple mane. She also had a funny-looking tattoo on her side, that I wanted to ask her about.
"You poor thing. Here let me carry you to safety." The purple mare said. Her horn began to glow a light purple, and I was lifted off the ground. I was startled, but too scared and tired to do anything. She started to gallop, but kept me close as we passed through the clearing. I begin to feel numb as my head starts to feel lighter and lighter. Finally, I blacked out.
When I come to, I notice that I am back in a bed, and I still feel numb. I struggle to get up, grunting as I have trouble moving. "Don't strain yourself," I hear that same girl's voice from earlier "You look like you have been through a lot." She sounded concerned. I was now able to come up with a witty comment "How do I look doctor?" (Ok it isn't witty). I looked over at the lavender mare just looked at me, concern in her eyes.
At the moment; I should have been more concerned by my current situation, the fact that I was hallucinating by seeing talking ponies. I should have been really concerned that I was so badly hurt that I could barely move, and to top that off; I was in some random person's home. At least she was nice and didn't seem bad. But all I could really think about was the mirror I woke up next to.
"Excuse me for not talking so much but, I think I'm hallucinating." I said "I keep seeing you as a pony." The lavender pony just looked at me confused, she then shook her head and said "You must of landed on your head really hard."
I looked at her and asked "Where are we, who are you, what happened, and why didn't you take me to the hospital?" She looked startled at the sudden burst of questions I had thrown at her, but she quickly calmed down and answered the questions one at a time.
"We are in Zecora's hut in the Everfree Forest." She started (I was skeptical at this statement) "I am Twilight Sparkle, the student of Princess Celestia." She continued "I don't know what happened to you. I was just walking over to my friend, Zecora, when I heard a loud thud. I went to check it out and I found you unconscious on the ground. You were hurt really badly; you had broken bones, cuts, scrapes, and bruises." I winced as I remember falling a lot while running through the forest. She then answered my last question "I didn't take you to the hospital because we are too far away to take you. I didn't want you to get anymore hurt on the way there. Plus there is a cockatrice out there somewhere and I didn't want to bring either of us into trouble with that."
"A cockatrice? What's a cockatrice?" I asked. "A cockatrice is a creature that looks like a chicken, but it can turn you to stone if you look into its eyes." Twilight said. I stiffened, what place was this that had such mythical creatures.
I got out of the bed and onto the wooden floor. I limped over to a window, while Twilight came close to me too help me walk. When I got to the window and looked outside; I noticed that everything looked much more colorful (even though it was dark out).
'Is this what it's like to be tripping on acid' I thought. "Why is it so weird that you see me as a pony?" Twilight asked.
"Because there are no such thing as talking ponies, on Earth." I snapped; I don't know why I snapped, I just did. I mean this shouldn't be rocket science, even though I was seeing ponies.
She just stared at me for a bit before her eyes lit up and she said "If you are hallucinating," She put and emphasis on the 'are'; "then why are both your front legs and back legs broken?" She finished.
"Well I don't think that my 'front legs' are really broken." I said (I was just asking for what was about to happen).
She looked at me for a moment then said "I really don't want to have to do this, but..." she inhaled then tapped my front legs.
A burning pain shot through my legs as I buckled and fell to the floor. I took me a second to understand that she was right, I was a pony and I was far from home.
I began to cry, thoughts of never being able to see my friends and my aunt swirling in my head.
"What is wrong with being a pony?" I heard Twilight ask. I sniffled then looked up "Its no that, it's that I won't be able to see my aunt anymore." I whimpered.
"Oh" she said, her voice full of concern. "There, there. It will be ok." She whispered trying to comfort me. She began to pat my head and saying things to cheer me up. But I wouldn't budge... even though she kind of sounded like my late mom...

How often would you guys like me to update this? I can't do it everyday because school started up, but I should be able to do it each weekend. I was just hoping for some feedback. Also I am working on a new story called "The Puppeteer" (probably not what you think it is going to be) so be on the lookout for that.
It will all be clear soon
I stopped crying after a while when I had accepted my situation. Twilight had brought me over to the bed and held me close. While this happened I remembered to ask something I hadn't thought about before. Who's house was this?
"Twilight, who did you say owned this house?" I asked, my ADHD causing my mind to wander.
"My friend, Zecora, owns this house. She went to go get Fluttershy, so she could help you." Twilight told me.
"Are they both unicorns like you?" I asked dumbly.
"No," she chuckled "Fluttershy is a Pegasus, and Zecora is a zebra." She said nicely.
"Oh, hehe" I gave a nervous laugh.
We sat in silence for a while until the door opened revealing a zebra, who I assumed was Zecora, and a butter-yellow Pegasus, who I assumed was Fluttershy. Fluttershy gasped in shock as soon as she saw me, flew over to me, and hugged me tightly.
"You poor, poor thing!" She exclaimed softly, in a very concerned voice, "What happened to you?"
I wanted to say something that would lighten the mood, but I couldn't think of anything. Besides, I just didn't want to say anything about the doppelganger mirror, or falling out of the house. I was afraid that if I said something like that, the ponies would think I was hallucinating. Plus Fluttershy was hugging me so tightly that I couldn't say anything.
"Fluttershy, you're choking her!" Twilight said with a concerned tone.
Fluttershy let go of me, "Oh sorry! Sorry! Please don't be mad at me!" She said in a very apologetic voice.
"I'm fine Fluttershy, don't worry." I say to try and console the, almost in tears, Pegasus. It didn't seem to help much because she continued to look at me with her big, puppy dog, eyes.
"You don't look so well, you look like had fell." Zecora said in a rhyme.
"I fell a lot of times." I mumble, which only seemed to further Fluttershy's concern
"Well then, I will have to mix a special brew for you, so that you will get better and feel healthy too." Zecora again rhymed, I kind of liked her rhymes.
As Zecora went to go get me a potion for me; Fluttershy lied down next to me and began to sing a lullaby, that I swear I have heard before, I just can't remember where I heard it.
I began to yawn and realized I was getting sleepy. I was tired from all the crying I did before (which Twilight had thankfully not said anything about), but I didn't want to sleep just yet. I wanted to ask some more questions, though I wasn't sure what exactly I wanted to ask.
"Fluttershy stop it." I said in a meaner tone than I meant to.
"Oh no, your mad at me aren't you?" She said in an extremely scared voice. "Please don't be mad at me. I just wanted to try and make you feel better."
Oh god, I felt horrible. "No-I, I just-," I started stuttering, before I took a deep breath and said "No Fluttershy, its just that I didn't want to fall asleep just yet." I managed to say.
"So you're not mad at me?" Fluttershy asked hopefully.
"Of course not." I said in a reassuring voice. "I guess I'm just a little on edge from before."
"What exactly happened to you?" Twilight asked in a unwittingly invasive way.
"Um.." I stammered "I don't want to talk about it." I didn't want to tell them that I was far from home, and probably wouldn't get back anytime soon, if at all. I really didn't want to say this in front of the Pegasus that almost broke into tears when she thought I got mad at her.
Unfortunately, Twilight kept prodding "But why not? I answered all your questions, so why won't you answer mine?" At this point I felt really scared that she might make me tell her. I don't know why I was so afraid of telling them that I was from another world. Maybe I thought that they would be afraid of me or become hostile to me.
Thankfully Fluttershy cut in and said "Twilight!" She obviously doesn't want to say what happened to her, and that is perfectly fine. You don't have to force her to say anything that she doesn't want to." She said sternly.
Twilight looked at me apologetically and said "I'm sorry for trying to force you to answer that. Its just that I want to know what happened to you. I just want to know why you are so scared of telling me."
"I just- I- I" I began stuttering again before I finally said "I just don't want to say anything about it right now."
Twilight just sighed and said "I suppose you don't have to say anything if you don't want to."
I looked at her and mumbled "Thank you."
I laid in the bed that was given to me as Twilight and Fluttershy went to go check on Zecora. I hardly noticed though because I was having trouble just to stay awake. I was drifting in and out of consciousness before I heard the light hum of magic and noticed the glow of something floating near me. I opened my eyes to see Twilight and Fluttershy standing next to me. Twilight's horn was glowing and she was using her magic to hold a bowl of something.
"This will help to heal you faster, and it will make you fall asleep." Twilight spoke.
"Where is Zecora?" I asked
"She's getting the guest beds ready for us." Fluttershy said softly.
I told Twilight to give me the bowl so I could drink it. She levitated it over to me and I drank it down quickly. Immediately I began to feel tired and started to sway. I put my head down on my pillow and closed my eyes.
"Before you fall asleep, can you tell us your name?" I think Fluttershy asked this because I couldn't tell clearly.
"My name is Bianca Sparks." I said before I fell asleep.

I'm sorry this took so long. Its just that I want to do so many more stories that I don't seem to have time for. I'm actually thinking of putting a story that I want to make into novel on this site. But because of school projects, I seem to have less time for doing anything.
