What's amnesia?
Chapter 3:Winging it.
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI stepped inside her abode. Thats when I noticed the shine. Everything, the floors, ceiling, any and every nook and cranny was clean. I gulped, there is no way I can clean that well. She broke the ice by asking,"Do you want to learn any spells?" I turned to her thanking....oh never mind, but still, I was happy she didn't know I was atrocious at cleaning. With a nod I responded, "That'd be great. They don't let people with mental trauma use spells at the hospital." She just stared at me quizzically. "Oh, I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself. I was hospitalized by a wreck and diagnosed with amnesia. I used to forget nearly everything I learned one day on the next, but I healed. Now it's only very slight chances of forgetting more than an hour or so." I explained, taking a deep breath. Well, at least I tried for a job. I started towards the door until her next comment almost made me break my neck as it swiveled around fast enough to beat a galloping pony. "Where are you going, don't you want a job?" I stared at her, she would still accept me as able bodied? "I just assumed my medical history would turn you down."
"Heavens no, that's all it is, history." Her reply made me smile, my first day discharged and I landed a job. "I thank you, I will ensure your library is sparkling for your generosity." She blushed at my statement, the little green dragon glared daggers at me. She then asked, "What's your name?" This question stumped me, think, I had a nickname. What was it? "I remember now!" I shouted aloud. Twilight shrunk back as I yelled, well I guess she'll just have to get used to it. "Sorry, I just remembered my nickname. It's Patience." Twilight recovered from my shout and responded, "It is great to meet you Patience. How did you earn that as a nickname?"
"I was in the mental trauma center for most of my hospitalization, it's what all the crazy people called me." This earned me a laugh from the purple unicorn and lizard alike. I didnt know what was so funny, but I decided to laugh along. Twilight turned to me and with a frown, stated, " Now I know first impressions are important, but did you really have to dress up as an alicorn?" I simply stared at her. "What do you mean?"
She said, "This." and gave my wings a large tug. "OUCH, They're Real!" I screamed.
She jumped back as if I was some strange animal. "I didn't know that was what an alicorn was, they caled me that at he hospital. I just assumed it was a medical term." I said rubbing my wings. "Her eyes grew wide and she immeadiatly apologized.
The green dragon laughed and said, "Maybe his horns fake." He walked over and gave my horn a huge tug, "Ow!" I swatted his hand aside. "My bad." He replied. Twilight scolded Spike and demanded I flap my wings. I flapped my wings, she checked for invisible rope, felt that they were legitimate and called for Spike. "Spike, I need to send a letter to the Pincess.
The small dragon must be a scribe, it would explain all the boo- "Twilight, how do you spell it ,utter or udder importance?"
Maybe not.
After another minute or two of writing all she said, he rolled the scroll up, put a seal on it, and burned it. Wait...BURNED IT!
"What are you doing!" I cried, "That was a perfectly good scroll, the message seemed fine!" Twilight looked at spike then to me and laughed, "That's how we transport my letters, it's magic, not senseless burning." "How does that work!" I asked. She brought out ambook from he shelf and began reading from it. It felt like half an hour before she finished, I could barely digest all the information though. I just nodded.
Three sharp knocks rang throughout the house, "Oh my, I must've burned the time, Coming!"
The knocks woke me up and then I saw them. By goly, they looked TOUGH. They could've thrown me twenty feet, I wouldn't have been able to do anything back either. They were all clad in golden armor. Head to toe. I mentally took note that there joints were very vulnerable, now that I though about it, their whole legs were vulnerable. Not very smart, but I guess it adds flexibility. The small dragon then piped in, "Shouldn't we grab the whole crew?" Twilight nodded and requested that the guards immediately make stops at all of her friends locations. Why would she need her friends? I decided to ask her on the way to our first destination. She decided to tell me the entire story of events that happened last year. "Celestia sounds mean." I stated. Twilight, Spike, and all three of the guards stared at me. "She banished her sister to the moon for one thousand year and then told her to apologize." "That, in my opinion, is mean." They all continued to stare at me, apparently baffled day my reply. They seemed to be at a loss of words too. It got awkward sink just stared at the landscape below, that's when something caught my attention. "Hey carriage flying guard dudes?" I asked. They both responded with a gruff "Yes"
"Why do you gallop while flying?"
They both pondered this question until they both came up with an answer that seemed reasonable. "We'd look foolish with our legs dangling."
I was going to return a smart reply, but thought not. They fly the thing, they can certainly pull it over.
