Dark Rooms, Voices and Hospitals
As I opened my eyes and looked up at the black sky. Something was off about it. No stars, no clouds and no moon in sight. As made my way to my feet. Using my army to balance me. I looked around from where I was standing. It was nothing. Everywhere I looked. The darkness seemed to go on forever. I started walking forward.
"Hello!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. "Can anyone hear me! Where am I?!" As I continued walking forward for what seemed like an eternity.
"Where the hell am I!?" I yelled for one last time as I dropped to my knees. "Is this some kind of a joke?" As I stayed kneeling down. I tried to remember how I got here.
Suddenly a white mist started to envelop me and my surroundings. I stood up as quickly as I could. While I was swinging my arms furiously at the mist. When I noticed my efforts were not getting me where. I stopped, closed my eyes and took a deep breath. As I opened my eyes. The mist started to clump together. It started to form odd looking stick shapes around me. As the mist started to become more concentrated. The forms took on colors of their own. They where dim colors. From a hazy brown to a dark hazy red. I look further up and saw all sorts of greens.
"Trees?" I said to myself in a bewildered tone. "How did mist magically turn into trees?" Still oblivious to what was happening. I looked around.
"I am in a clearing of a forest? Hello! Is anybody out there!?" As I scanned the edge of the tree line. I was thrown to the ground by loud explosion. I looked up and saw a huge fireball heading straight for me. As I got up as quickly as I could. While I tried to run away. I tripped over my own stupidity. While I lay on the ground. I did the only thing that came to mind. I curled up into a ball. Hoping and praying I'd make it out alive. As this moment passed. Nothing seemed to happen. I slowly open my eyes and make my way to my feet. I am once again surrounded by the same darkness I awoke too.
"Hello! Someone help me!" As I yelled. A feeling struck me like a ton of bricks. "I am... Alone... No one is going to help me." I said; as a small tear gently rolled off my left cheek. I suddenly hear whispers. I quickly wipe my face off and yell.
"Hello!"
"Look." A faint whisper muttered.
"Help me! I'm over here!"
"What is it? Is it alive?" As the whispers continued. "Come on Twi. I don't thing we have time to get help."
I turned to where the whispers where coming from. As I ran as fast as I could. The whispers continued for a short time.
"Come on Twilight. It will be better to take it to the hospital."
"What hospital!? Did something happen to me!? What's going on!?" As I came to a slow walk. A sharp pain in my head struck me to the floor. I heard a clear voice that was seemingly directed to me.
"Shhhh. Shhhh. Shhhh. Calm down you'll be fine."
I jolted upward gasping for breath. I couldn't see anything. I reached up to my eyes and discovered they had been wrapped up for some reason.
"Calm down. You where having a bad dream." A gentle voice said. "You're going to be just fine. Now lay down and rest, Its late."
"A dream? Who are you?" As I calmly lay back in the bed remembering the sincereness in her voice.
"I'm Nurse Redheart. I will be keeping an eye on you tonight." She stated while wiping the sweat off my forehead. "You're in good hoofs tonight so you can rest easy. We will find out what happened to you tomorrow, but for now you rest."
"Hoofs?" I said with a questionable tone.
"No more questions. You need your rest. Everything will be explained in the morning." Said nurse Redheart.
As I relaxed in the bed. A gentle tingling sensation overtook my body. As I started to lose consciousness of my surroundings. I muttered one last word as I remembered the dream I had.
"Twilight?"
