Mysterious Alicorn

Chapter 3

By Aponymous

It had been about a week since Twilight Sparkle found me in the Everfree, I still havent been able to speak or move around that much but at least I can sit up and limp around Fluttershy's living room.

They say they are going to introduce me to the rest of their freinds today, something I cant quite say I am anticipating being mute and all.

I step in front of the mirror and inspect the pony staring back at me, for the first time in... ever I suppose I see what a look like.

Black mane with a grey coat, Black Horn with Grey wings, bandaged and dishevveled I can clearly tell that I have been through quite the ordeal, even if I only remember a the time i've spent at fluttershy.

It's been a fairly peacefull week at Fluttershy's, she is quiet which is nice because I seem to not be what you would call sociable. I still don't remember where I came from or how I got into the state I am in

now but things sometimes slip through the cracks of memory, dreams and fractured memorys, nothing that means anything though.

Around noon there's a knock on the door, Fluttershy goes to answer it and Twilight steps in. I smile and she returns the favor, as it turns out she brought along her freinds.

They came in one at a time and introduced themselves.

First came in a pony wearing a hat, for some reason I found this quite amusing, smiling to myself . She introduced herself

"Howdy, I'm Applejack pleased to make your aqauintence"

I smile wave, nearly falling over because it is fairly hard to support yourself off of 1 good leg and 2 legs with healing bones.

She smiles and steps away so the next pony can approach.

This one had a cyan coat with rainbow mane.

"Hi, I'm rainbow dash nice to meet you"

Her mannerisims seemed energetic and she seemed likable enough, I gave her a small smile and she smiled back then retreated back with the others.

The next one to come in was a unicorn who seemed nice... I suppose.

"Hello, I am Rarity"

She seemed to expect me to show some reverence or something, I managed a smile and held my hoof out for a hoofshake

A/N sorry.. but i just have to say... BROHOOF

She seemed to inspect my hoof for a few moments before accepting it onto her own. Once again I almost fell over but I managed to keep my balance this time, as I was expecting the imbalance.

She smiled half-heartedly and stepped next to the rest of them, I got the feeling she wasnt to impressed with me.

If I thought the rainbow one was energetic she was nothing compared to this one.

She hopped into the room with the biggest smile plastered on her face. Litteraly HOPPED over to me.

"Hi I'm Pinkie-Pie! Who are you? Can you talk?" she took a deep breath and gasped "WE HAVEN'T HAD A PARTY YET! We need to have a party! It's been like a week! We're gonna have to make it extra special to make up for how long its been!" she starts talking faster than she was before (a feat I thought impossible) and I can't really understand her beyond that point.

The idea of a party wasnt particularly appealing to me. But I supposed I had to be polite, so I smiled, well... it came out more like a grimace but I dont think Pinkie-Pie noticed.

"So whats your name? What do i put on the cake?"

I shrugged, then realized something.

I dont have a name.

The realization must have beenwritten on my face as the other ponys seemed concerned.

"Well I suppose we will just have to come up with a name for you then!" rarity exclamed!

Pinkie-Pie Seemed exitied by this prospect.

"How about Wingy Horn? Or something that has to do with his cutie mark!"

Fluttershy quietly chimed in with "Um... he does'nt have a cutie mark..."

"Oh... that's weird" Pinkie-Pie said before continuing on "How about Mutey-Cutey?"

That idea got shot-down fairly fast.

They continued riffing on new names for a while until Fluttershy chimed in

"Maybe we could call him Shadow Horn... "

Sounded good enough for me, at least when she said it.

The other ponys seemed to agree, they looked at me for confirmatlion and I smiled.

"I suppose it's settled then, Shadow Horn!" Twilight said, seeming happy that the issue had been resolved.

Pinkie-Pie looked extatic "That will fit on the cake perfectly!" She dashed out of the room without another word.

The rest of them stayed for a little while, asking me yes or no questions until it was time for them to leave and attend to their various things around ponyville. Fluttershy of course stayed -as it was her house- and asked me

"How are you feeling?"

I smiled and shrugged

"I hope you can talk soon"

I nodded in agreement

"I think it may be bedtime for you" she said noticing how tired I seemed

I smiled, observing that she was taking care of me as though she was my mother, even though we were clearly around the same age.

She walked me over to the bed and put a blanket over me.

She smiled at me and left the room, heading to her own bedroom.

I smiled and started fading to sleep

Darkness, Born in darkness I could feel myself slipping deeper and deeper as I tryed to catch my breath, trying despratly to catch a breath, feeling the liquid fill my lungs without choking the life out of me. I stayed there in the darkness, unmoving and unable to make a sound, feeling the liquid surronding me, I tryed to call out for help but felt the sound stick in my throat, unable to escape. I started to scream for the sake of screaming, trying to get any sound to escape my mouth. I yelled for Fluttershy, for anyone to come and save me, to pull me from this liquid I felt was becoming my grave. I started falling and felt myself land on a shaking bed.

Then I woke up and took in the scene around me.

It looked as though a storm hit. Water knee high was flowing into of the cracks under the front door.

Fluttershy stood at the bottom of the stairs

"Oh my! What happened here?"

I shrug and give her a concerned look.

She opens the door and lets the water drain.

As the water flowed out of the room Fluttershy looked at with concern and stated

"You were screaming and when I came down the room was flooded."

As the water flowed out of the quaint house she inspected the area to find that most things where still in good condition. In fact, the most damage done was making the floor soggy.

"Are you ok now?"

I shake my head no.
