Hey, JP here. Haven't done one in a while, "Lightningshard's Anguish" died. But here is one I think you'll enjoy. It's about memories and is rated M. Just a disclaimer, I do not own MLP, and the names featured in this story are made by the fan wiki. Thanks for your support, and enjoy.
P.S. I've noticed that my paragraphs are fairly short, so I'll try and fix them.
The Resurrection
Chapter 1: "Where the hell am I?"
My eyes slowly opened. The smell of motor oil and cheese danishes permeated my nose, and the salty sweetness of fish and chips touched my tongue. I groaned as the tiredness sunk deeply into my flesh, splitting my bones. Wait a second, my bones were split. What's going on? My eyes opened completely as I yowled in pain. All of a sudden, the bone knit back together and the pain stopped. With a quizzical expression, I put my hands where my bed is supposed to be, but they slipped as I wasn't on a bed. I was floating in an endless whiteness. I saw a figure in the void, walking towards me. As I noticed who it was, I went up and hugged him.
"Yes, hello Duskshine." said Prince Solaris.
"Oh, I've missed you so much!" I exclaimed. Glancing at the perpetual emptiness, I asked, "What happened? Where am I? Did I do something wrong? Where's-" I was cut off by Solaris' calming hand.
He sighed, and explained, much to my amazement, "You're dead."
Pause. An awkward silence.
"What?"
"You're dead. You see Duskshine, you and your friend, Rainbow Blitz, were in your F-136 Griffins, with your squadmates when you were shot down by Rebel forces over the Gulf of Mexicolt. Your funeral was yesterday."
I fell to my knees and put my hand over my head and muttered, "I let everyone down, how could this happen, why am I stuck here..."
Solaris then smiled. "But that was the bad news. Although your squadmates were destined to die that day, you and Blitz were supposed to eject, but something prevented you from doing so. You were supposed to live."
"What does that mean for me and Blitz?" I asked, a quizzical expression on my face.
"It means that you might be able to come back to life! But you have a choice: either you can come back as yourself, but this blunt physical trauma still fresh in your mind, or you can start over as a new pony, but your memory of your past life will be erased."
So, what will it be?"
As I tried to decide, I remembered the week leading up to the accident. Then I made up my mind.
"I want to..."
Author's Notes: Did you catch that Yu Yu Hakusho reference with a little twist? If you did, comment about it. Also, suggest things for later chapters. This is JPBrony, out.
Question of the Week (QOTW): If you were in Duskshine's predicament, what would you choose?
P.S. Sorry for the short(ish) chapter. :(
