My ears flicked catching the sound of water dripping, I had been stuck down here in darkness for hours. I was hungry and thirsty I also couldn't sleep as easy. I had already tried to open the door from fear of the dark several times, but each try had failed greatly. I was tired and lonely, the darkness was my only company, at first discomforting, then calm and comforting, like a blanket.
I shivered in the cold, I swear I was slowly coming undone. I curled into a protective ball, 'Perhaps I should got to sleep'. I yawned again,' Yes that would be the best idea' I thought to myself silently. I slowly drifted off in the darkness.
{Dream Scape}
I sat up in front of the dark lake I had seen the last time I was here. I sat in front of the waters staring into my reflection. In my reflection I saw a pale hedgehog without a mouth, only a nose. It also had black fur and teal streaks. I panicked flying backwards my head hit the ground with a light 'thud'.
I looked behind me as I heard a low chuckle at my sudden act, I calmed down as I saw it was the crystalized man. He shuffled down next me a warm glint in his eyes. I purred as he petted me behind the ears, he started to chuckle at my behavior and I laughed along with him.
"Would you like to see something magical?" He asked, I nodded excited to see what he had to show me. I stood up and offered a hand, I took it and he help me up. The man walked slowly holding my hand the whole way, after a while we stopped.
We stopped next a twisted tree with long branches and flowing leaves it looked into a field filled with glowing light blue flowers. I gasped my eyes widening, and glowing in the light. The man's eyes brightened at my awe, he lifted a hand while closing his eyes. So the ground in the middle of the field cracked open showing a large tunnel. I gashed and held his hand tighter than before, then I stared to run, excitement pulsing trough my veins. I stooped in the center of the cave, all around were beautiful shinning crystals there colors varied from blue, pink, and purple. A small water fall lead into a small stream, I smiled and felt along the smooth surface of the glass crystals. I purred as it gently vibrated and filled me with a warm energy. He lifted an arm and a glowing purple crystal grew from the ground, lightly shaking the cave as it grew. Soon he expanded the cave, and formed a large twisting crystal stair case. I ran the first step, my tail wagging the whole way. I ran all the way up the stairs, hearing the man behind me slowly walking up the stairs. Upstairs there were paints, paint brushes, canvases, and notebooks. I squealed and ran towards all the different shades and colors.
"Like it?" I spun around to see the man smugly leaning on the wall behind me, his eye's shinning as if he was smiling.
"Yes, I love it!" I answered awed by all of the different colors and paints.
Suddenly the floor cracked under me my feet flying up in the air. I screamed and reached out for the man, my arms reaching out for him. He caught my arms, he put one of his blue crystals into my hand.
"For luck." Was all has said then he disappeared, and I fell into the deep hole screaming.
{Exit Dream Scape}
I jolted up in the basement, the water still dripping in the dark. I looked down at me hand to see something glowing in the palm of my hand. I slowly open the palm of my hand to see the crystal the man had gave me. My eyes widened and a gasp escaped my mouth and echoed around the basement. I tucked the crystal into my head quills and shivered, it was colder than earlier now. I felt my tail hide between my legs as the basement door opened and I heard someone stumble down the stairs. I looked to see my drunken father stumble down the stairs and the sent of beer pierced the air as he came closer. I tried to crawl backwards from his walking form. He laughed at my fear, and stepped closer, I noticed that he had an empty bottle of beer on his left hand. He laid a hand on my thigh while staring into my face, a drunken smirk on his face. I on the other hand had my ears pinned to my head was silently sobbing.
"Hmmmm, Why so scarred?" I hiccupped unable to form words to respond to his simple question. He smirked and moved his face inches away from mine, our noses pressing against each other. My eyes widened as he pressed his lips against mine, he roughly licked my lips, a cried harder tears pouring down my cheeks. He pushed me down and I began kicking my legs to try to get him off of me. He purred and licked up neck kissed me once again, I cried more wanting to curl up and escape. I somehow managed to push him off my small body, sobbing and crying out as I did. My father on the other hand didn't like being rejected he grabbed my arm in a harsh vice grip while snarling at me, snorting hot air in my face. He grabbed the beer bottle he had dropped whiles he kissed me, and brought it down on my head. I winced as I heard the bottle shatter and I felt something warm dripping down my head. My vision blurred and I couldn't breath any more. I couldn't even scream as he imbedded a glass shard into me stomach. I twitched and coughed up blood, I felt blood trickle from my nose. I screamed looking up toward the ceiling and he forced another shard into my stomach. He smiled laughing and twisted the shard while jamming it deeper into my stomach. I began to retch from the horrid torment and the constant attacks to my stomach. He sent watch ever was left of the bottle crashing on my head. He got up from his place on the floor and picked me up roughly, then as if he changed his mind he dropped me, dragging me by my quills up the stairs. I didn't try to fight or cry out, I was already too tired and worn out to resist. He dragged me out side and showed me to a small shed, its ceiling riddled with holes, its wooden sides falling apart, and the door was barely on its hinges. He threw me inside and showed me my tiny desk and a few dirty blankets and one dirty pillow. He threw a key at me saying that this was my room, and home. I stared at his with blank dead eyes, my gaze was blurred from the blood dripping from my head and the tears. He walked out slamming the door behind him shaking the whole place. I lightly wondered if I had to pay rent or something, although, now I should be worried about my newly acquired wounds. I managed to painstakingly drag myself to the blankets and pillows, I shakily managed to sit up again the poor wall and take the smallest blanket and ripe it in half. I spat on the dirty rag and lifted my shirt to see large gruesome holes in my stomach, I dabbed the rag on and around my wound.
"AAahhh." I cried as I felt my wounds sting and burn. I couldn't get the shards out without help so for now I would have to wait, but then again...perhaps I could try to at least pull them out a little less. I reached a shaky hand to the wounds and poked a finger into the wound, I looked up silently screaming, I felt something leave my wound and saw a large shard of glass in my figures. I threw it somewhere in the shed and started on the deeper shard, it had got it most of the way out but was having some difficulty, but finally I had got the shard from my body. After cleaning up some more and making sure I didn't have any more shards on me I wrapped the rest of the ripped rag around my worst wounds. I sighed and took off my sweat shirt, I crawled to the blankets and fell onto my pillow curling up into my blankets and sweat shirt trying to gain some warmth from the thin blankets. I almost screamed in furry as rain poured down and soaked me making my quest for warmth null-and-void. I sighed and curled up into a tighter ball shivering and coughing. I suddenly felt the crystal pulsing in my quills, and I gently uncured and grabbed the glowing object from my quills. Its glow warmed my whole form causing me to purr out. I hadn't been in school for days, I realized. Then I face paled groaning Amber and Twilight will be crazy with worry or anger, either way I was in for trouble, IO almost laughed at how I remembered how protective they were. I turned holding the crystal closer to my chest, I swear that I was going to school tomorrow, after all, I can't miss Science again can I? I smiled and slowly drifted from the awake world and sinking into a dream less sleep.
