You know what? I had the most wonderful time thinking about this story. So I hope you like it as well as I do.
And pardon me if it kinda jumps right in...
Begin!
Walking along, not having a care in the world, just thinking about...
Nothing.
I loved walking along these rural, and sometimes, industrial roads... Just me and the stars... Sharing our thought between every step I take...
"Oh how wonderful it is..."
It was nice... And fine... Just me... And...
...
Dear God, there it is again. Almost every night, since I was... I don't know...
The name I was stuck with... Was Jossten. In fact, I... Was named that by my parents... But I don't know who my parents were... I just knew enough to know I had a mother, but that was all. I'm currently 21, and have no idea what my purpose is in life... My mother... Well, I have a human mother, but... She doesn't feel like my real mother...
Who she was, I didn't know. But I still felt like I was underwatch. Maybe I'm just a labratory experiment like in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Now I know how Picard felt. How he felt, I feel now. Like there's a door, but nothing on the other side of the door. Even if you were to escape, they would just put you right back.
Like under a microscope. I looked at the time, and it said 8:53.
"God... I am so sick and tired of... Ahhh..." I moaned pain as I winced and fell to the ground.
"No... Not again..." I said while feeling a memory flashback in my mind...
"So... What shall we do now?" The voice said in a seductive tone.
"Well... I have something in mind..." I said.
I looked at the voice, the face, but it was blurred.
"And just what is that?" She said in the same tone while kneading my back and giving me a massage with her arms..
"A small game... But later..."
"I love you." She said...
"And I love you... Tia..."
And then, like a mist, it faded from sight of mind...
"Guh... Hah... Hoo..." I panted as I lay on the ground with the most severe of headaches.
But who was Tia? I didn't know anyone who had a name like that. Closest name I knew was Annamaria... My former girlfriend. But... I just... Don't... I don't get it.
Tia? Who... I mean, it's a beautiful name, worthy of a name in my books but...
I still didn't know who she was? And... Why was she white?
I began limping somewhere, along the road, when I opened my eyes as I fell, and hit my head on a rock... But that rock... Was 52 feet down. From a waterfall...
"Wha...?" I said while looking around the green, warm, grassy hillside which accompanied me to my destination.
"But where am I?" I asked myself.
I saw nothing but a rural, dirt road which sliced between the hills. I looked to see the grassy hills go into a town... An old town...
I walked to the town, and in front of it, before concluding it was full of multi-colored, cartoonish ponies. Both Unicorn, and Pegasi. And even ones who I knew as just ponies. Earth ponies, I guess.
...
But they seemed to know a language which I was familiar with.
English. Of course, I denied my mind of this thought, when they kept talking, on and on, until I finally accepted the thought.
They didn't seem to notice me, until I began, to slowly walk forward and they stopped with a most curious and slightly shocked look, which they began to murmur amongst themselves.
"What is that?"
"Is that a hairless monkey?"
One though, came right out of the crowd and walked up to me.
"A human?" It said to me. It was a aquamarine pony, with a mane and tail of the same color, with white stripes through it.
"Um... Hello." I waved to them and smiled a bit.
"You can talk?"
"Yes... I... don't want to alarm you... But I... Have much to do."
"Oh no, please don't leave. I've always wanted to meet a human. Do you have to go?"
I looked at her, and the other ponies, and looked back. A forest, and that was it. Maybe... It was my way back? Maybe that forest has something to do with my appearance here... Maybe...
"Spike, send a letter to Princess Celestia. Now." I heard one say. A lavender one.
Great. She alerted the high rulers. Well I'm screwed.
I wore a black button-up shirt, which was black. I have emerald green eyes as a color for them, and I wear dark navy blue jeans. and black dress shoes. With dark blond, short hair. Which I respectively grew to be 6' 6" tall.
Which were probably getting dusty. I looked down. Nope. I looked back up, and then towards the forest. I began to back up slowly, when the pony began to give me a 'please don't leave look'.
I wasn't even supposed to be here!
"Oh come on, please?"
"No... J-Just leave me alone."
"And I know that creature to be a human. Signed, Twilight Sparkle." I heard one say to the small purple dragon that seemed to be taking note of what she said.
Ok. I've got about five minutes to make it from here to the forest. I can do it...
I began walking back never taking my eyes off the them, until I saw a small carriage in the sky.
Well, that's them. I'm screwed.
I began feeling my heart, no... My soul, saying something to me, like... I shouldn't run away.
I started my mile-long sprint towards the forest, as some of the ponies began to follow. But just walking. About... I don't know. I guess they wanted to know who and what I was for themselves.
But the carriage had stopped at the town, and then a pony, larger than most others, one with both a large horn, and accompanied by wings.
Interesting... I had almost made it, when I stopped myself to look.
Now, I expected her just to use the carriage. But she must have insisted of running for her self...
But why?
I just stood there. Like I was waiting for her. I faintly heard a voice, probably hers, that snapped me out of my dazed trance, and I bolted into the forest. I made it in there, and proceeded to run, when I tripped on a rock, and hit my head on yet another rock, but was only dazed.
Consider it like the effect of a flashbang.
My vision, was now blurry, and wobbly, as I got back up, panting ever so fast. I looked at my hands, now covered in blood. I heard something behind me, before hearing the voice again, and rustling of the bushes. I felt a huge pain in my side, and shoulder, when I looked back.
Wolves. But not ordinary wolves. Wolves consisting of timber.
"GRAAAAH!" I screamed as I pulled them off, taking flesh with them. I felt blood pool on the ground out of my left side, where I put a hand over to cup the wound from any blood spilling out at all
I saw the figure, or pony. But then a name came to mind. Alicorn. I don't know where I heard that, but I insisted on running still.
"No please! Wait!" It said.
No... I... Cannot be caught... Whatever the cost...
I ran, even over some wolves, and looked back once again, as the wolves scattered when they saw the being.
I was about to make it to the dense part of the forest, when I tripped on a branch, and fell to the ground. Now the being was angry. Well... Either that or... She was crying.
"P-Please... Don't come any closer... I-I'm sorry for w-whatever I did t-to you."I stuttered in fear.
"Don't fear me... Please... You know who I am, remember?"
Do I... Do I remember? A white figure... A... Tia?"
"T-Tia?" I said, hoping it was the right name.
"Yes! You remember!" She said breathlessly and smiled, as tears now flowed down her cheeks easily.
She walked towards me slowly, every step, my soul rejoiced for some unknown reason...
But maybe it was because I knew her once.
"Don' you remember me... Jossten?" She said my name.
"How... Do you... Know my name?"
"Please... Don't worry about that... Just please come with me... Please..." She said while nuzzling her cheek to mine a whispering to me.
But then I fell and passed out... And that was all I could remember... Until I woke up. I expected a hospital, but instead I found myself staring at a ceiling which showed me the colors of blue, pink, purple, and green.
Wha... What? Where am I?
I looked to my left side, where a bandage, and all blood was removed. My shoulder was no longer bloody, and it too, had a bandage. I found myself in a bed, with nothing but my undergarments. They too, were clean, but I didn't care. I looked to see my clothes in a neat, clean pile next to the nightstand on a chair.
So I decided to take a shower. I sat at the edge of the bed, and got up. I was seemingly wobbly, at first, but I regained control. I grabbed my clothes, and walked into the bathroom. It was neatly organized, with all the condiments a woman would need to wash her hair, style it, wash her face.
Which then agreed with the notion that I was in a bedroom.
A castle-like interior as well. Interesting. I turned on the shower, hoping for warm, when I recieved cold.
"Well. Nothing like a cold shower to wake you up in the morning." I said to myself. Quietly. I scrubbed my hair with a shampoo which I am I not going to bore you with a title, and I dried off. I put on my shirt, and jeans, and I combed my hair.
My hair was dry by the time I put on my shoes. Pretty fast, right?
...
Yeah... Anyway, I proceeded to walk out of the bathroom, when I saw a figure standing outside.
The very same figure that I knew to be Tia. I still didn't believe her that she says she is Tia. But did I care that much? Not really.
Did I want to speak with her? NO. I most certainly did not. For right now, I just wanted to go back to Earth, where I know I am safe. Even if it is boring.
I walked out of the bathroom, not wanting to speak with her or even look at her...
...
I guess you could say I was scared of her. I have never been more scared in my life. Ever. I don't know if it's because I know her, or what.
You know, I would love to entertain suggestions. But right now, I gotta go.
I almost made it to the door, when she called my name.
"Jossten?" She said in a quiet voice.
No. No no no. I am certainly not going to speak with you.
... But my mind didn't care.
"Jossten please. I know you are scared, and frightened, but please, just look at me."
...
And she was right. As much as I didn't want to admit it, I was scared and frightened...
But...
Something inside me did not want to shut her out. Something inside of me just said 'look at her'. I don't know what, but I do know it to be a strong feeling.
I turned around, to look at her, face to face. But I just couldn't look at her face, as I sharply looked away.
"Jossten please." She said while approaching me quite fast. I put my back to the granite wall, and looked at the nightstand, the ceiling, the floor, anything to not look at her.
"Jossten please, look at me." She said while she grabbed my face with her hooves. But I still insisted on looking at the floor.
But unbeknownst to me, a tear roll down my face, and to the ground. Said tear was... Not just clear... But... Golden. I didn't understand it.
I finally found the courage to look at her, even if it was for a moment.
"You remember me, don't you?" She asked.
"... Y... Yes..." I replied.
"Do you remember this?" She said while snaking her hooves around and massaging my back gently, making me melt in her grasp.
"Hhh..." I sighed in relief.
"Yes... I know you remember..."
I looked at her again, but this time, with courage.
"I... Remember..."
Our lips were mere centimeters away, as our breath left a glossy look and feel on our lips. She slowly leaned in, and kissed me. It was so... Warm and inviting... So intoxicating... So... Passionate.
She stood back, and I suddenly felt dizzy, and slow. I was now feeling a pain in my head, and a throbbing headache formed.
Memories from long ago, flashed in my mind.
"Oh how I love the royal garden... It makes you even more beautiful than you are..." A memory flashed and disapeared.
"No... Not again!" I grunted while falling to the ground.
"Jossten. Jossten. Jossten, just looked at me. Just look at me." She said while picking me up and holding me. When I looked at her, all pain seemed to go away... The headache, gone, the pain, gone... The pain in my heart... Gone.
Just by a simple look, she has somehow soothed all of my pain. I don't know how she did it, but she did. It seemed like a wave of assurance came over me like water, soothing the pain.
My vision was now clear, and I looked around. Everything was fine. Nothing seemed out of place.
"All better?" She smiled at me.
I was sick and tired of repressing my feelings. I hugged her tightly and kissed her ferociously, feeling her blood heat up at that moment.
"You do remember." She said breathlessly.
"Yes... Maybe not all of it, but enough for now... Tia." I said while smiling at her.
"Would you like to go see the Royal Gardens?" She said to me.
"I would like that, yes."
And so she took me on a tour of the gardens, the rich, lavish flowers and different plants that flourish this land... It was truly amazing.
We sat down on a grass hill, and just sat in silence. Just remembering the moments when we would do this. How we would cuddle each other under the moon every night, loving each moment like it was our last...
But I still had much to remember...
