I didn't open my eyes when I woke up. Well, at least I remember something this time. I shouldn't make a habit of unconsciousness. Heh, yeah I- Wait, What? What just happened?! How in Tartartus was I that powerful?! What was that circle?! Did I kill Nightmare?! What do I even do from here?! Okay. Stay calm. First of all where am I? I was lying in what felt like a bed of some sort. My left foreleg felt weird, like there was something sticking through my skin. Everything smelt almost sterile. I could hear a sharp, rhythmic beeping. I slowly opened my eyes to see... Nothing. I was blind.

"Well, shit." I croaked. Great! My voice is barely working as well!

"Your sight will return," claimed a regal, female voice. "Until then I have some questions for you."

"Who are you?"

"Who I am is not important. What's important is that you tell me who you are."

"Why?"

"I just really want to know."

"Don't we all?"

"What?" I sighed. I shouldn't make jokes that only I understand.

"It doesn't matter." The voice paused for a moment before speaking again.

"I'll ask again: Who are you?" She asked. "Where did you come from?"

"My name is Cloud Calculation. I mentally talk to myself, I hate self centered ponies, I'm apparently pretty powerful with magic and I came from a field."

"A... field?"

"I woke up in the middle of a field the day before the Summer Sun Celebration with no memories other than my name and some spells. I followed a carriage in the sky to Ponyville. I met a loner and her dragon and followed them around town to get into the library. We met a bunch of annoying Ponies and went into a forest to try and find the Elements of whatever. I went further on my own when her and the others were scared by trees. I did battle with a super villain before passing out. I woke up here." The voice was quiet for a while. When it spoke again it was somewhat softer than before.

"I see. For now, Cloud Calculation, you need rest." I felt a spell being cast upon me. I felt myself falling back asle... Getting... too... tired... to... narrate...

"...Stay with you until we make progress."

"Okay, Princess. But how long will that take?"

"I do not know, my little pony. I will send you a message when I find out what has happened."

Ugh... Friggin sleep spells catching me off guard... Now I have no sense of time... Wait, did they say Princess? I opened my eyes. My sight had more or less returned. The two voices belonged to Twilight and a tall mare with a flowing mane wearing a crown. So that's the conspiracy Princess... The Princonspiricess! No. Just no. Fine. I should let them know I'm conscious. I coughed to get their attention and they turned to look at me.

"You're awake!" Yelped Twilight with a shocked look on her face. How do I even respond to that?

"Uh, yeah," I replied lamely, "I am. So... What's up?" The Princess stepped towards me.

"You defeated Nightmare Moon with ancient magic that even Star Swirl The Bearded could not fully control," explained the Princess. "After you hit her with your final attack she transformed back into my sister. You collapsed as your body could not take the magical energy you channeled, but as you were high in the air your body took serious damage that was almost fatal."

"You nearly died!" Twilight exclaimed. The Princess who's name I still don't know raised a hoof to politely tell Twilight to shut up.

"Twilight and her friends showed up as you threw a fireball at Nightmare Moon and stayed to witness the whole fight. When Nightmare Moon was defeated, I was released from my imprisonment. I teleported to her and told the six to take you to a hospital while I spoke with my sister. She told me of what happened with your magic and that you had spoken of somepony named 'Realta'. I went to the Ponyville hospital to question you.

"Afterwards, I placed you under a spell to put you into a dreamless sleep, but because of your injuries you slipped into a coma on the brink of death. I teleported you to my private hospital, which is usually used only for royalty. They healed you well, but you were still in a coma. Since you had been healed almost completely I took you to Twilight, in her library. We were just discussing how you were to stay under her supervision until either I found information on your past and magic, or you woke up."

"Oh. So a lot of stuff's up." I scratched the back of my head. "Thanks I guess. How long was I out?"

"Two weeks." Answered Twilight. Two weeks?! What?! "Cloud? Are you okay? You look a bit shocked." I sighed and nodded.

"Yeah," I replied, "I'm fine." I took a deep breath and let out another sigh. "So what happened to you and the others after I left?"

"Well... Pinkie sang a song about facing your fears, a sea serpent helped us cross a river after asking if we were friend of the turquoise Unicorn, we got to an old rope bridge, we saw a dark blue light flash through a window of a tower and ran to see what was going on, and just as we arrived you threw a fireball at Nightmare Moon." Nightmare... Night-Mare. Huh, only just noticed that.

"So did you ever find the Elements of Harmony? Also, there were some stone spheres that Nightmare took and destroyed. What were they?" I asked.

"What?!" Yelled Twilight. "Those were the elements! Oh no! What do we do if the kingdom is ever under attack?!"

"Cant you just go back and find the fragments of them in that room?"

"The tower collapsed after your final attack! We wouldn't be able to tell the difference between them and the rest of the rubble!"

"Oh. That's too bad. I guess we'll lose next time then."

"I shall do some research on the magic you performed in your fight," explained the Princess. "Twilight now lives in Ponyville as she wished to stay with her friends. Until I find answers, you will stay with her at the Ponyville library. Unless you really want to go somewhere else which is fair enough, I know how Twilight gets. I must leave you for now, but I shall give you this ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala. Twilight and her friends also have tickets, so you can go along with them. I will speak with you more there. Do you have any last questions?"

"Why do you name all of your celebrational events with triple alliteration? And if you're the ruler, why are you a Princess and not a Queen? And why did you leave priceless artifacts of ultimate power laying around in the ruins of an old castle in the middle of a dangerous forest?" The room was silent for a few seconds.

"Unfortunately I'm out of time for your questions," lied the Princess, "but I will contact you when I find more information. Practice your magic, Cloud Calculation. Equestria will be a dangerous place without the Elements of Harmony as a deterrent and weapon against evil. If you are stronger than Nightmare Moon, then you may be able to save us in the future. The best of luck to you." And with that, the Princonspiricess left.

Stop using that word! You're not my real mom!
