Prologue

~? POV~

A sharp, blue light whizzed passed me. I felt hot and sweaty. My mind was becoming fuzzy, and I could only make out the sound of my hooves clopping against the stone ground and my pounding heart. My limbs were going numb; but I'm so close. I can't stop now.

Another light whizzes past me. My muscles are crying for me to stop. But I can tell I'm getting close. The tunnel is starting to get smaller. One of the lights hit me in the leg. A searing pain erupts suddenly through the numbness, and I hear myself cry out. But I can't stop.

I passed a hole in the wall on the right side. There was a candle inside it, lit with a green flame. I was even closer than I was before. Two more lights passed me, and one hit me in the back of the neck. It was tiring me and making it harder for me to move. But I can't stop now. I can see the door. The door is so close now... I'm so close to freedom.

I gave a final burst of energy. My legs were burning. I squinted and the door lit up with black magic and swung open, while I continued o run through. The sudden brightness blinded me, and I felt myself smile. I didn't stop running, though. The feeling of wet grass and dirt under my hooves gave me the will to keep running. Besides, I wasn't quite free yet. I still have more distance I need to cover.

My lungs cried for joy when the fresh air filled them. My eyes were happy to finally see real, natural light again - a pink light went past my left side, and a purple one followed soon after, hitting me in the flank. Consequently, I tripped and rolled a few feet, but I quickly got back onto my hooves and continued running. Before long, I could see the fence. I spread my wings and flapped as hard as I could; the first few flaps, I only got an inch off the ground and landed back down, but eventually took off into a sloppy flight. A green light came and hit my wing, but with my other wing I managed to keep high enough to pass over the fence. Almost immediately afterwards, I went down and kept going. I heard them yelling far behind me to release more troops and the head guards giving orders, but I knew, somewhere in myself, that I was free.

I knew they wouldn't catch me.

I can finally leave.

I was bored and made a MLP OC, and this idea popped into my head. So... enjoy.
