-continuation of chapter 5-

— — —

Sonic has been walking through the woods for a while, not knowing how long, only knowing what was only a few minutes seemed to take FOREVER to walk. Whilst walking, he tried to think of a comment tails would say at this time. "Why are you complaining sonic?!" He would say, "we've been walking for only three minutes!"

"It's not that," sonic replied to the invisible friend of his "It's that I can't actually RUN, and every time I try, I get slightly farther, but end up falling on my face anyways... Which reminds me..." Sonic then, slightly hoping his luck would save him, tried to run, and was able to make a good dash... for about seven seconds before falling hopelessly on his face. "See!" He mentally, and physically, shouted. "I can't even make it ten seconds without falling straight on my face!"

"Huh, why don't you try running more like a horse, and less like a... Well sonic." The imaginary tails , feeling depressed from his constant failures, replied "hey, that could be a good ide- wait a second?! What do you mean 'less like a sonic?!'" "Well, your running really doesn't match the style of most hedgehogs" "well, that not to-" "and plus you really don't pay attention where you're going and crash... Alot."

"Hey!" He says angrily, " that's the last straw imaginary tails, why don't you just shut up!" "Well I would, but I can't because I am a figure of your imagination and you are sub-consciously choosing everything I say."

"Huh," sonic sighed, "I wish I had someone real to talk to!" Tails followed with, "well, technically I am real since your brain is real and your thoughts are actually auditory through your ears."

Sonic, finally seeing common sence, ignored tails and begun to build his focus and concentrated on the energy he sensed before, but it seemed the same distance away as before. 'Why does it seem like no matter how far I go, I don't get any closer!" "Maybe it's just because-," Tails started, but was immediately cut off from a very angry sonic,"NO WORDS FROM YOU!"

Sonic then sighed, "guess I have to be patient... This is gonna be fun..."

-a LONG walk later-

Sonic was still walking, but could feel a lot of beings moving, but could still sence that one being's power still the strongest,so strong that it could even be senced from multiple miles away! At least, to him, it meant he was getting closer, and that he was not far at all!

-after traveling out of the forest, finding an empty field, with an empty house with alot of animals in and around it, he arrived at a mountain, which over looked a village with ponies walking to and from there destinations-

"Yes, finally actual living creatures! I now can talk to someone!" Sonoc then jumped and cheered, before relizing a scary possibility - "wait, what if they can't talk at all?!" Sonic then proceded to cry.

"Um... Sonic" imaganary tails said, talking for the first time in about a half hour. "What?!" Sonic Said angerly, "maybe I can help." Sonic then stood up and thought 'how?' Tails, still contemplating his existence, then repsonded with "well, think about it, you can understand many different animals and species, so that shouldn't be to bad, plus you seem to be a little similar to them so... it makes sense."

Sonic thought this over for a moment before finally saying "ok... I guess that makes sense. Thanks imaginary tails!" "Meh, no problem"

Sonic then began to walk, right before thinking something 'hey tails, where do you think we should go first?" "Hmmm..." He, for the first time, thought about it "I guess we should see if there are any 'higher powers' that may guide us." "Ok, and what do you mean by 'higher powers'?" he said "and how, exactly, do we do that?"

"Well, didn't you sense someone powerful? Wouldn't they know?" "No, that's not really how it works, but I guess we really have no choice, and if we need to leave fast..." Sonic said, staring at an idle train sitting on the track. "We have a way..."

After sonic was staring at it for a long time imaginary tails said "so... Are we going?" "Oh yeah, right" sonic said one last time before beginning to start to walk into town, but immediately stopped and thought 'holy chaos emeralds, I think I've gone crazy'

He then started speed walking into town, trying not to fall again, and whith his focus at a very high level.

-A minute later-

After walking for a little bit, sonic quickly relized that walking this fast made him get into the town at a very fast pace "Man, I know this town is filled with ponies and everything, but does it have to be so brightly colored?" He stated, while looking at what seemed to be a bakery of some sort.

Sonic then proceded to look through the window to see the treats there, but saw the reflection of a pony instead. 'Stupid glare... Who is that... Wait.' He then became full of dread and sadness, relizing the horrible truth that the image was of himself! "Is that really who I am now," he thought as he looked at the image, and instead of seeing a cheerful, blue hedgehog standing there, he saw a dirty blue horse, with a blue mane and green eyes standing in its place. 'Have I really gone from a hedgehog to a blue horse?' He mentally stated. 'Well, technically you are a pony.' Imaginary Tails said. "Shut up Tails" he said aloud.

"Hey there!" A high pitched voice from his side came. "AH!" Sonic screamed, not prepared for any sudden surprises, such as this very moment.

"Who where you talking to?" Sonic, finally getting a good look at her, saw a pink, obviously hyperactive, pony standing there. "Um... Nobody" sonic stated, trying his best at lying. "Really, because it sounded like you were talking to somepony." Sonic, confused, had to stand and think about what she said, 'wow, she talks fast...' "Nope, not a single per... Pony." As the pony began to open her mouth to talk again, sonic cut her off and quickly said, "also I need to do something so... Bye!" He said as he quickly ran around the corner.

"Ok, no more time to waste, I need to be quick." Sonic then went into his "focus mode" and tried to sense the energy but, oddly enough, it felt as if it was all around him. 'Huh, that's strange, it usually only does this when I'm close...' He thought as he trailed off. 'Wait, no way... HER?!' Sonic thought, putting two and two together. He then looked around the corner and saw her sitting there smiling at him.

"Well, this is going to be fun..." He said as he walked towards her. "Hello again!" He said, trying to match her happy tone. "Himynamespinkywhatsyours!" Sonic, again took a second to understand and attempted to respond correctly "um... hi, my name's sonic, and look, I have a quick question to ask you is there anyone who is very smart who could lend a friend directions?" "Well you could go to Twilight, but she left earlier because of an incident with fire" "oh... wait wha-" "OH, BUT THERE IS PRINCESS CELESTIA... AND SHE'S LIKE, SUPER DUPER SMART, I MEAN SMARTER THAN TWILIGHT SMART!"

'Probably not an actual princess...' "So, where could I find 'princess Celestia?" Pinkie then turned and pointed at a mountain with a castle on it. "Oh..." Sonic both said and thought at the same time "told you" said imaginary Tails. Sonic then started grumbling at his "friend."

"Oh! who is that?!" "Oh," he said casually, "that's my friend tai- wait, you can hear him?!" Pinky then chuckled, "no silly, you can hear him!" 'Jeash, some people, am I right out?' 'Pinky, we talked about this in the last story, NO BREAKING THE FORTH WALL!' 'Oh right sor-' pinky then gasped suddenly "oh no!" She said aloud "I almost forgot!" Pinky then dashed off at an unreasonable speed.

"Ok then..." "That explains why she was so easy to sense... I - I found out the information I need!: I need to talk to the most high powered pony here, the princess!"

Sonic, right before dashing off again, looked in the mirror for the last time and thought 'This is going to be a long day...' And dashed off towards the train station, hoping that the train was still there.

Ok, sorry everyone if the last few chapters started to get worse, this took HOURS to write, and it didn't help that I was running errands throughout it... Anyways I will say this quickly, if there are any suggestions you may have given me, If I take them, they won't affect this until a couple chapters AFTER being told, thanks to how I work... Also, Please leave any helpful suggestions and/or ideas in the review section (or PM me... Either works) that I could use in the future.

ALSO I have written a... How should I word this... "Message" to everyone that will appear in the next chapter. It is VERY important to this story so PLEASE read it.
