Another Chance at Life
Chapter 20: 20. Mind Trip Pt.1
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWhen I could bring myself to think about where I was, I threw that idea out of a 3rd story window. I DON’T KNOW WHERE THE FUCK I AM! It looks like my house back home on Earth! I looked around and saw Twilight standing next to me; her face was literally covered in the smile she had painted on it. AHHHH….that is the single scariest thing I ever seen in my life. Well, right behind that one incident with the orang….GET THAT THOUGHT OUT OF MY HEAD!
“Twilight, this looks like my house back home…only there is no furniture and the walls are covered with paintings and photos. What happened?” I asked her, my head was throbbing from all of the weirdness right now. It feels like I am in a damn art museum for crying out loud! FUCK I hate artwork!
“Yes this is your home, the paintings on the wall represent all of the days that you have been alive and able to remember them. Whichever painting you or I choose will turn into a doorway into that day” Twilight said to me.
I began walking around looking at the various paintings and photos in each room. They all had names and little descriptions for that particular day. I stopped at one of me and 3 of my friends sitting under an aqueduct laughing. “I remember that day! That was one of the best days of my life! Can we go here?” I asked her
“Sure, to go to the day you just have to put your hand on the painting” Twilight said to me.
“YAY!” I said in a very happy tone that even made Twilight jump a little. I reached out and touched the painting. The painting lit up in a bright yellow light and turned into a doorway. You are now about to enter the Twilight zone. That’s ironic!
“Now Twilight, when would we appear in the day? Would it be when I woke up?” I asked the lavender mare.
“Wow, you guessed it on the first try. Yes, we would be there when you woke up for the day. Umm, will I have to be afraid of anything for this day Kyle?” Twilight said to me in a concerned tone.
Figured she would ask that! Unless she is afraid of stupid, then she doesn’t have to worry. Tee Hee. “No this is just one of my school days, then me hanging out with my friends. I do get a little stupid though when I am hanging out with my friends later on though, but don't worry” I said to her. “Are you ready to go?”
“Yes, lead the way” Twilight said to me.
I stepped through the doorway and immediately found myself in my room. Twilight walked in right behind me. I was looking at myself putting on a shirt. OK, I regret everything I said. This is the single creepiest thing ever, seeing yourself in 3rd person is just not meant to be possible! I want to go home now!
Twilight didn’t seem to pay attention to my 3rd person self and was walking around the room. “Kyle, what is this?” she asked pointing to my T.V.
“That is a television or otherwise known as a T.V. It is used to see animated pictures and get news of the day ahead of you. It gives information such as weather forecasts and news that has been happening around the area as well as the world” Ok, this isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I just have to be patient; the fun will come right after school for me.
“Wow, it is amazing at the advances in technology you have here. Do you mind if we move to the school now seeing as you said that you had it today, I want to see what you learn” Twilight said to me.
AWWWW MAN! I was hoping that we could stay as far away from that hell hole as possible! CURSE YOU TWILIGHT AND YOUR UNQUENCHABLE THIRST FOR KNOWLEDGE!!! “Sure, I do have to say that half of my day is not spent on school grounds though. I am in a class that is off campus. It is called BOCES” I said as I began walking to my front door.
“Umm Kyle, you do know that we could just walk right through the wall right?” Twilight said to me snickering a little.
“Oh, I forgot that we can do that” I said to her rubbing the back of my head with my hands.
We walked through the wall outside and up the street. It felt truly weird to be here again…even though we weren’t really there. I wonder what she will think of the other students. What will she think of my friends? Or is she just going to want to walk around and ask questions about them? I don’t really care about it, this is something that I wanted to do for her.
“What are those big things on the side of the road?” Twilight asked me pointing to a car as we walked.
Something that I will never have even if I did stay on this rock of a planet. “Those are called vehicles. They are used to transport the people that are too lazy to walk around the town. They are very expensive and you can seriously get hurt in one if you don’t know how to use it properly.” My cousin being a perfect example. HE DID A FREAKIN BARREL ROLL OVER THE HIGHWAY! Luckily he was not hurt other than his pride being broken into a hundred pieces.
“Oh, did you ever use one?” Twilight asked looking up to me. NO! I NEVER GOT TO USE ONE! *Sniffle*
“No, I was always more fond of walking to my destination” I said to her as we turned the corner of a street.
We were at my school now. Holy crap time goes by fast when you are explaining every single thing in this town! I even had to explain to her what a stop sign meant! I was ready to tell her that it was always opposite day and it meant go, but my kindness stopped me. We walked up the front steps and phased our way into the school entrance hall.
“I feel so weird being here! I mean don’t get me wrong I hate being back here, but I spent so much time in this dirt hole that It kind of grew on me”” I said aloud.
“Kyle, do you think you can show me around? I am interested to see what you learn here. It looks like this place also holds a lot of other students, how many others go here?” Twilight asked me as she looked at the window that showed the students of the month.
Despite my better judgment for the first question and OVER 9000 for the second. “Sure and there are about at least 750 other students that go here” I said to her.
We started walking around the school, class has already started, but we still barged our way in through the walls seeing as we could not be seen or heard. Well, time to go to my Trig class, hope you like a funny teacher and math Twi. Little side note: I HATE MATH!
The class was working on some problems that my teacher put on the smart board. Twilight surprised me and took out a notepad and began taking notes on the problem. WHY DOES SHE WANT TO TAKE EVEN MORE MATH! SHE GRADUATED SCHOOL ALRRADY…I think, but you get the idea!
Twilight looked at the problem and then at her notes, after a few more minutes she walked over to me and shown me what she did. “Is this all you do? It is very trivial in my eyes. Is this the hardest it gets, or does it get more difficult?” She said as she looked at me.
I had an utterly confused look on my face for like 2 whole minutes before I was able to even think about what she said to me. SHE THINKS THIS IS TRIVIAL? THIS IS STUFF THAT YOU DO HALFWAY THROUGH THE YEAR! Well, looks like even a pony is better than me at math class. I am just the kid with the dunce cap on sitting in the corner getting laughed at.
“It does get more difficult, but how did you accomplish the problem so easily? I have a hard time enough as it is with the stuff before this topic and you completed it like it was basic addition. I am very surprised at you being so good at math” I said trying hard not to explode from feeling so worthless in my school studies.
Twilight smiled at me and then she began walking around the room again, asking me more questions on the people and objects scattered around the room. We spent the rest of the class time doing so. When the bell rang we walked through the door after everyone else had left and stood in the hallway.
I can’t wait to see her look when we go to BOCES. She will have no idea about anything that I am being taught there. For once I will feel smart! I looked down at Twilight “Hey Twi, are you ready to take a trip to BOCES?”
A/N: This is the first chapter of my mind trip. I am thinking that there will be 2 or 3 depending on how much I decide to roll with the idea. I hope you like it so far. Next chapter will be up soon!
