Expiry: Never
work in progress

  1. 1.
    >Cold and darkness.
  2. 2.
    >Then a loud bang and everything shifts.
  3. 3.
    >Random noises and colors fill the darkness as the world changes from peaceful to chaotic.
  4. 4.
    >The Cacophony of sound threatens to overwhelm thoughts as random flashes and blotches of colors threaten sight.
  5. 5.
    >Senses are numb by a powerful static in a unrelenting beat.
  6. 6.
    >Taste and smell are non existent in this eternity of chaos and light
  7. 7.
    >All is mayhem.
  8. 8.
    >Then silence.
  9. 9.
    >The peaceful nothing returns.
  10. 10.
    >All is dark again.
  11. 11.
    >Then a spark in the void.
  12. 12.
    >Flashes of color and noises come from a faded oblivion as they coalesce into a simple structure.
  13. 13.
    >A simple question shouted out into the darkness
  14. 14.
    Who are you?
  15. 15.
    >Then another
  16. 16.
    What are you?
  17. 17.
    >The colors take shape into a form
  18. 18.
    >Noises join it as other things risen out of the oblivion, help form what is the mind.
  19. 19.
    >Your mind
  20. 20.
    >Concepts and simple knowledge come to, as if to help answer the question asked.
  21. 21.
    >An image of a bipedal thing forms in the mind as a word crawls out from the depths to join it.
  22. 22.
    Human
  23. 23.
    >Yes...
  24. 24.
    >You are human.
  25. 25.
    >This is what you are.
  26. 26.
    >Now what is your name?
  27. 27.
    >With all the newfound knowledge that drag itself out from the depth this one was not one of them.
  28. 28.
    >Something for another time then.
  29. 29.
    >Well, time for the next question
  30. 30.
    Where are you?
  31. 31.
    >You try to move, but nothing happens
  32. 32.
    >Or well you think you tried to move
  33. 33.
    >It finally comes to that nothing is being sensed, smelled, taste or felt.
  34. 34.
    >It can only be assumed that you can see, but everything is too dark to make out.
  35. 35.
    >It's like you are just a floating mind in this space.
  36. 36.
    >Options are limited, so thinking is the only thing to do now.
  37. 37.
    >Until further development occurs or the current situation changes.
  38. 38.
    >Another question worms out of the chaotic mess that is your mind.
  39. 39.
    How did I get here?
  40. 40.
    >Focusing hard on the colors and flashes.
  41. 41.
    >You try to will the memories forward.
  42. 42.
    >But like a monster in the dark its only lets little parts of itself out to be seen making you fill in the gaps.
  43. 43.
    >Or whatever you CAN make out.
  44. 44.
    >All you get are blurs and foggy faces of... things that make no sense.
  45. 45.
    >Trying everything to pull out more from the darkness and focus on the detail a great heaviness falls over your mind.
  46. 46.
    >Everything starts to slowly sink back into the bubbling oblivion as you try desperately to figure out what's happening now.
  47. 47.
    >Then one last thing shows itself.
  48. 48.
    Oh, this must be Sle...
  49. 49.

    Stuff made for later so i would not forget them might change later.

    (Part 2)
  53. 53.
    >A cool, but gentle breeze passes over canterlot.
  54. 54.
    >Night is gently letting way for the eventual dawn coming as the sun's light come through the horizon before it.
  55. 55.
    >The early birds are starting their melodies as the leaves rustle in the wind.
  56. 56.
    >Truly, this was going to be a good day.
  57. 57.
    >Morning came rather early today, but it's no trouble for a sun princess such as yourself.
  58. 58.
    >The feeling of drowsiness is still present, but a good cup of morning tea should fix that.
  59. 59.
    >Speaking of, the night maids were kind enough to prepare your tea and table early near the balcony.
  60. 60.
    >It's such a nice spot, you can see almost all of equestria from it.
  61. 61.
    >Approaching the table a sweet scent of fruit and honey greats you.
  62. 62.
    >The particular type does not come to mind, but it must be a custom recipe one of the night maids is fond of.
  63. 63.
    >You envelop the cup with your magic and gently bring it to your lips for a taste.
  64. 64.
    >...!
  65. 65.
    >Delicious! You really need to ask Luna about her maids she as one with particular fine taste in her midst.
  66. 66.
    >Speaking of your sister you can spot the silhouette of some pony flying towards your location.
  67. 67.
    >Your suspicions are correct as the familiar dark blue unicorn comes to view gently flying in the night air as she nears you.
  68. 68.
    "Good Morning Sister, you are done early?
  69. 69.
    "Easy night?
  70. 70.
    >The night Princess gracefully lands on the tile floor and sucks in air threw her then a painful expression on her face as she rubs her back legs together.
  71. 71.
    >"Morning Celestia, and yes, our task are quite easy tonight. Not a lot of nightmares. It allowed us to finish early.
  72. 72.
    >Worried a bit by your sister's reaction earlier you ask.
  73. 73.
    "Are you feeling alright Luna?
  74. 74.
    >Looking closer a bit of fatigue is present on her face.
  75. 75.
    >Though this is somewhat normal she seems to be more tired that usual for an ""easy"" night.
  76. 76.
    >"We are fine sister, we just stretch a muscle on our back leg nothing serious.
  77. 77.
    >She gives a warm smile to give credence to her words.
  78. 78.
    ""Alright if you say so Luna.
  79. 79.
    ""Do you want to share some tea with me before you tuck in for the day?
  80. 80.
    >She ponders it for a moment before relenting.
  81. 81.
    >"Sure, it could not hurt.
  82. 82.
    >She takes a seat opposite to you and sips her cup.
  83. 83.
    >"This is really good, I'm impressed who made it?
  84. 84.
    "I believe its one of your maid, even asked a couple of them if it was ok to set up my seat early.
  85. 85.
    "She as fine taste indeed you should search around for the mare so she can make my tea more often.
  86. 86.
    >Your sister gives you a pout as you giggle in response.
  87. 87.
    "I kid Luna, just tell her I really appreciated her work.
  88. 88.
    "She did an impressive job.
  89. 89.
    >The two of you look at the horizon in silence as the sun slowly shows its face.
  90. 90.
    >The shadows being cast out as a warm glow takes over the land little by little.
  91. 91.
    >Silence for a few moments before a question comes to mind.
  92. 92.
    "How have you been as of late sister?
  93. 93.
    >''Oh, we have been fine. Our task keeps us occupied and productive and the nobles are giving us no trouble.
  94. 94.
    "That's good, but this is not what I meant.
  95. 95.
    "I've noticed you were less energetic these past few weeks.
  96. 96.
    "Tell me is the ""incident"" still troubling you?
  97. 97.
    >She drops the smile on her face and lets her head down and sighs.
  98. 98.
    >"I... yes
  99. 99.
    >''I know it's not our fault and that there is nothing else we could have done, but it feels like I failed him.
  100. 100.
    >"We did not know him for a long time but still we were friends.
  101. 101.
    >"The fact that he saved our lives while we could only watch the life leave his eye is heart wrenching.
  102. 102.
    >You get up from your seat and go next to your sister, wrapping her in one of your wings.
  103. 103.
    "I understand sister, I also feel regret for not being able to save him but you knew him.
  104. 104.
    "He would not want us to feel sad forever.
  105. 105.
    "He would have wanted us to move on eventually.
  106. 106.
    >"I-I know.
  107. 107.
    >A single tear streams down her face
  108. 108.
    >Its only been a few years since your sister got back, she's not use to lost like you are.
  109. 109.
    >Especially not lost that you both seemingly could have prevented if only things were different.
  110. 110.
    "I also feel regret for that moment and I also regret not being able to help find him earlier.
  111. 111.
    "He was not sure, but it was assumed he was here for a few months before being found.
  112. 112.
    "The experts and I estimated that he arrived in the Whitetail Woods instead of the Everfree as once though and that he somehow doubled back to the Everfree somehow.
  113. 113.
    "The few guards that were sent to seach, confirm this by finding a few of his older camps threw out Whitetail and more recent ones in the everfree woods.
  114. 114.
    "Being in the Everfree for so long it must have been terrifying and the fact I did not notice any magical disturbance or anything of the likes to find him earlier eats at my guilt.
  115. 115.
    "Even if I know realistically nothing could have been done to change it.
  116. 116.
    "But you must not let the guilt eat at you forever dear sister, it will only drag you down if kept forever.
  117. 117.
    >You hug your sister's thigh and gently nuzzle her head before you remember some humorous things and some events your friend told and was apart of.
  118. 118.
    >With a chuckle you remenence
  119. 119.
    "Did he tell you that at first he was afraid of us?
  120. 120.
    >Your sister looks up at you with a confused expresion.
  121. 121.
    >"The big strong human was afraid of little ponies like us? How can that be? He was massive compaired to us, heck even you.
  122. 122.
    "I know, but he said the first time he saw ponyville he did not want to approach because the our subjects looked strange to him.
  123. 123.
    "All the colors and ""weird"" look they had made him uneasy.
  124. 124.
    "He was afraid they would try to eat him.
  125. 125.
    >Your sister lets out a giggle as she responds
  126. 126.
    >"To think most of the things in that forest were 10 times more dangerous.
  127. 127.
    >"He must have felt silly after joining us.
  128. 128.
    "I'm sure he was, it must have been a shock to receive such kindness from the little ""monsters"".
  129. 129.
    >Another giggle escapes your lips as you remember another event.
  130. 130.
    >The first time he met you two
  131. 131.
    "Do you remember the first time we met?
  132. 132.
    "I must admit when I saw him pass threw the door he intimidated me
  133. 133.
    "A mix of a minotor and tirek is not something you expect to be present
  134. 134.
    "But do you remember the first thing he said while greeting us?
  135. 135.
    >"No?
  136. 136.
    >You stifle a giggle as you say the exact words he used to greet
  137. 137.
    "Salutation Sunbutt, Moonbutt.
  138. 138.
    >"Ah yes, it was good to see his sense of humour did not disapear while stuck inside that forest
  139. 139.
    "Oh i remember you were so insulted when he said that
  140. 140.
    >"I was not!
  141. 141.
    "Oh yes you were!
  142. 142.
    "You had the biggest pout on your face and the meanest stare in your eyes.
  143. 143.
    "Twilight had almost fainted
  144. 144.
    "And I was laughing
  145. 145.
    "No one had ever called me that before.
  146. 146.
    "Or at least no one said it so casually to me before.
  147. 147.
    "Do you know why he did that?
  148. 148.
    >"There was a reason for it aside from humour?
  149. 149.
    "Of course! He told me it was because he wanted to see if we were as he put it, ""A bunch of nobles with a stick up our bums""
  150. 150.
    "He wanted to see how we would react and if he should be worried about us.
  151. 151.
    "What kind of place must he had been from to worry so much about royalty like that?
  152. 152.
    >"Was he afraid we would take his life for a any slight insult?
  153. 153.
    "Well, you were about to jump on him if I was not there laughing
  154. 154.
    >"I-I would of just boot him nothing more.
  155. 155.
    "Returning to the previous question I'm not sure he said he lost his memories when he woke up in the forest the first time.
  156. 156.
    "Or at least that was his explanation, I doubt he would try to cover it, but I'm sure that it could also be a possibility.
  157. 157.
    "Anyway, he was not the intimidating monster his look showed him to be at first.
  158. 158.
    "Though apparently all that time, surviving in the forest changed him a little.
  159. 159.
    "He said his feral look was not something he had usually.
  160. 160.
    "And that he ended up being bulkier than when he first woke up.
  161. 161.
    >"That's surprising, it's hard to imagine him without his the built look he had later on.
  162. 162.
    "He was a fine specimen... and a fine friend.
  163. 163.
    >"Yes, yes, he was.
  164. 164.
    "Now promise me you will not let him lost affect you negatively anymore.
  165. 165.
    "Remember, it was not your fault.
  166. 166.
    >"I know and I will
  167. 167.
    >Luna take her hoof up and wipesthe dry tear stain on her muzzle.
  168. 168.
    >An awkward silence falls as you two stay like this.
  169. 169.
    >Then she speaks
  170. 170.
    >"C-can we stay like this?
  171. 171.
    >"Just for a bit, it's been a while since we had such a moment.
  172. 172.
    "Of course Luna
  173. 173.
    >You stay in each others embrace as you watch the sun rise from the horizon.
