TIK.... TIK....

What... happened? Consciousness started to come to me thanks to a distant sound. I could feel my body again, I was lying down with my face on the wet and cold hard floor.

TIK.... TIK....

Why do I feel like an ursa minor just passed over me? I thought, and I actually mean it, it wouldn't have been first time that happened to me.

TIK... TIK...

I am... alive? wait... Memories from before blacking out came to me. I remember the visions, the comic-con, going with a boy... my friend? then I remember buying a necklace. I remember the fight with Deliora, lying to Celestia, and then using my most powerful spell, then....

I died... but I'm here... I'm awake... why? Then the memory of my talk with 'Deliora' came to me, I could feel my anger rise from it, how can someone do that to a kid!? Then an important fact was registered by my mind.

I am alive...

...

I AM ALIVE!? I try to stand up, but I fall straight on my face, hitting my nose pretty hard. My arms feel like I pulled up a weight of one hundred pounds for hours.

TIK...TIK...

What is that sound? I try to open my eyes, but all I see is darkness. I try letting them adjust to the dark, but even then I couldn't make much of my surroundings.

I... I need to get out of here, I need to find Celestia.

I wanted to get up, but everytime I tried, I fell unto the floor and hit my head. I wanted to yell, to scream to whatever deity was watching me to help me.

I need to find Celestia, I need to get out of here!

I started to tremble, forcing my arms to do something even when they were screaming at me to stop. I just ignore the pain in my arms, 'I need to find Celestia' I repeat over and over again, I needed to see her, to let her know I was fine.

TIK... TIK...

"Shu-Shut up already!" I yelled to whatever was making the sound. I needed to focus on getting out of here.

I panted slow, painful breaths. My throat was on fire, and it felt like I hadn't had a drink in ages.

"I need... to get out!" I open my eyes but only saw darkness, then I got an Idea. I put one arm over the other shakily while trying to fight the the pain.

Come on! work!

I try to use my magic but it wasn't working, I tried and tried, but no matter how much I tried, it wasn't working. Come on! just.. just a spark... that is all I need... My head started to spin, the world seemed to change to different shades of black, green, and red...

I need to get out... I need to find Celestia... I won't let unconsciousness take me... I try to fight the need to lie down and sleep, I needed to get out of this dark place pretty fast.

I try putting a foot in front of the other only to trip. Next thing I know, I hit my head hard against the floor. I could feel what little consciousness I had left slip away from me.

"Daddy...."

"ARRRRRRRRRRRGH!" I yelled to the top of my lungs. I got up with a new found strength, that little stray memory made my strength somehow come back to life. I put one hand over the other and yelled with the top of my lungs again.

"ICE MAGIC! FREEZE!" The action was instantly, ice came from where I was standing and consumed the whole place. It froze everything, the walls, the floor, the roof, everything.

The ice magic made everything glow in a pale blue light, it help me to finally see the place I was in. From the looks it seemed like I was underground, or in some kind of giant earth dome. There wasn't any holes or doors in the place, just a perfectly made dome under the earth. My throat burned so much, but I pushed the pain away. My body felt energised. That voice, somehow it gave me the energy I need.

"ICE MAGIC! DRILL!" I didn't even stop to think more about where I was. I made a perfect giant drill, and thanks to the help of my magic and my enhanced strength I could hold it like a great sword.

"AAAAAAAAAAAH!" I yelled while running to the closest frozen wall while aiming the drill to the front, when the drill make contact with the wall it sprung to life.

""

The whole earth was cut like a hot knife on butter, I run and run aiming to the top. Never stopping even when my legs began to feel numb.... I needed to get out, I needed to find Celestia and ask her... ask her...

"AGH!" Pain, my ice Drill shattered instantaneously while the pain forced me to clutch my head with both hands, falling to my knees. I feel as if my head was being torn apart from the inside out again.

*BADUUMP*

"-et the colt on the bed, I wanna ask him a few questions when he wakes up." Said a voice, it was soothing somehow, like how my dad used to talk to me when I hurt myself. I could feel myself being carried in a bridal like style and put down in something soft. There was some metal shuffle sounds and a loud sound that remind me of metal when hitting the floor. Wait, where was I? Did… did somebody took me out of that dark place? Then, I panic. Celestia! I tried moving but my body wasn’t responding, just like… oh.

This… this was a memory?

"-y lord" Said two male voices in perfect unison. Why are they talking like that? Why do I feel…. sad?

"Where... am I?" I asked, this time I was more used to my body acting like a puppet and me in the back seat. More shuffling could be hear in the room I was in while I feel how I was trying to open my eyes, I succeed. But I could only make three blurs on top of me.

"The colt is awake, leave us alone." Said a male voice that originated from the yellow blur in front of me.

"As you wish, my Lord." Said the two black blurs and I could see them getting further away until the sound of a door being opened and closet could be hear.

"Are thou feeling well?"asked the yellow blur.

What was that!?

"I~I'm fine, just a little dizzy." I said while holding my head. Squinting my eyes didn't seem to help me much so I decide to just go ahead and continue talking. "thanks whoever you are, can you tell me where I am? Last thing I remember is… falling?" I asked while closing my eyes. The more I looked around, the more my head hurts.

"You don't know where you are? Surely you must have hear of the Equestrian Castle inside the Equestrian Kingdom! After all, You are resting inside of it." Said the male voice.

"Equestrian... Castle?" I asked, I don't remember any place like that, there was only one place that come to mind, but that was impossible. I… I remember it being nothing but rubble? Wait, no. What was I thinking at the time? What was going on? Who was I talking too? So many gaps in my memory...

"Well of course! d̡͎̭͎͇̯̥̫̦̤̓̂̋̄a̞̭̺̞̲͈̫̱̽ͤ͗́͋͛͊̚.̵̣̪̩̮̺̟̬̠̾ͨ.͈̗͓ͨͫ̓ͮ̍̉͌.̵̘͎͇̰̦̟̂́̂͐͢.̛̥̱̦̤̌̓̿ ̥̤̩͕̱͍͓ͯ̉̄r̷̠̜̣̹ͮͥ̃̾͗̓̈́ͫ́u̷͓͇̩͎͚͊͗̆̃ͤ.̶̵̓̎̓͏̝̙͉̫.̖͍̭̼̬̬̖̓ͫ̈ͦ͌͌ͩ.̧͕̖̩̤̘͚̮̩̔̿ Thou are walking on the place where thee three tribes made peace! How can thou not know?" Asked the voice. Agh! Again!? What happen!?

"The three tribes? and why are you talking so funny?" I asked.

"Thou must have hit thine head pretty hard to not remember thine kingdom." Said the voice.

"Since when was America considered a Kingdo-" My words died on my throat as I saw what, or more specific who was sitting on a wooden chair in front of me.

He was a human, well. Somewhat human? with some slightly differences, one of them being that he got a brilliant golden 'fur' covering its body from head to his feet. He had a snout, making his face a little longer than normal. On the front head he got an spiral golden horn that came from his dark red mane with a golden crown that could be seen underneath some of his hair, he was pretty tall too, maybe three or two heads taller than me I think. He was wearing a gold armor with a green gem in the center of the chest piece. The armor was a full set of gold like that of the ancient times and his crown too with only a green gem on the center of it.

I look at him in the eyes, his bright green eyes filled with concern, pure concern. Maybe he could see the shock and fear that I had.

What happened to me? did somebody hit me or something? last thing I remember I was buying a necklace for god's sake! I thought while trying to progress how I ended up in a bed inside a room that looked that it came from one of the Germany's old Castles.

"Are thou feeling alright?" He asked me.

"I-I..., can you, tell me the name of the country?" I asked while trying to hide my fear and grasp a bit of hope for this to be a very good joke. The man in front of me looked at me weird, before saying the words I didn't wanted to hear, and somehow I knew he wasn't lying when he said it. It was a gut feeling yet everything felt real enough.

"Thou are on the country of Equestria, why does thee feel need to ask?" He said.

Equestria? as in MLP? but that is impossible? right? this... this can't be happening! this must be some short of dream or something but...! I was hyperventilating, clearly in shock. Many thoughts running wild inside my head. But the most predominant one was that I was on a unknown place with somebody I don't know, and to top it all, I could be in another time, world, galaxy, universe, dimension!

"Hey hey hey! Thou needs to calm down! Please! take deep breaths! You need to breath! Calm thine self!" Said the unicorn in front of me while placing his left hand on my right shoulder, which made me calm a little, I took deep breaths until my breathing was normal again before speaking.

"I-I'm calm now... thank you..., emm..." I let it stay there a little until he got what I was trying to say.

"Oh! My apologies young colt, my name is King Solaris of the Equestrian Empire." Said the unicorn while taking a deep bow, that is when I notice that behind him on his back where a pair of golden wings.

"Tha-thanks Solaris, my brain would have shut down if you didn't told me to calm down." I said with the most gratitude tone I could make.

"Thou are forgiven young colt, but can we have thine name?" Asked Solaris with a gentle smile.

"Oh, yeah, sorry my name is... is... is....." It struck me like a truck, my name. I couldn't remember my name!

"I-I can't remember my name!" I shouted, again I started to hyperventilate while a million thoughts crossed my mind.

My name? what was my name? I got a name right? Of course I have one! but why can't I remember it!? I remember everything from my past! I remember my school, my friends, my family, why can't I remember my name!? I shouted internally, sweat started to appear on my front head.

"Shhh, calm down, take deep breaths young colt! thou are stressing yourself!" Said Solaris, which again helped me to calm down.

"Sorry, it is just- I can't seem to remember my name." I said while looking down in shame.

"Worry not young colt, just rest, and thine memory will mend." Said Solaris.

"Ye-yeah, I will do that... thanks again, Solaris." I said while closing my eyes.

"Do not worry, it is always gratifying to help the young, may nightmares stay away from thee." Said Solaris before leaving the room.

I made a quick look at myself, I was almost naked, I got only my dark blue jeans and the rest seemed to have disappeared. That's when I notice that my clothes were put on a chair at one side of the room, the clothes being a white coat with a black T-shirt to go with it. Then there was the necklace in that chair too, I decide to dwell on it later and let the dream world take me.

What... was that? Solaris... why does that name feel so familiar? I know I meet him but… my head feels like it is going to explode when thinking about it… why? I resumed my work after recreating my giant ice drill.

Yeah... I remember now,Solaris' guards found me on the front of the castle. I can't believe they thought my parents shaved me and then leave me alone because my hoofs were 'deformed', they never did believe me. One of the guards actually believe I was female because of my face, only the mares doesn't have a snout by what I saw, that made my stay a little awkward when a guard said I was looking good and gave me a wolf whistle.... I think it was like that? My memory continue feeling like a more than a half is missing… wait… Then of course there was that time I was freaking out cause I saw myself on the bathroom's mirror, I could see that my eye color changed from green to black, and my physic became more visible, I got abs for god's sake! My muscle seemed to grow pretty much a lot, then there was the tattoo on my chest and some scars that I don't remember having.

There was the name issue too, after two days of being 'recovering' in that room I couldn't remember my name, I could remember everything just fine but my name? I couldn't. They even though someone was experimenting on me. No matter what, they couldn’t believe that I came from another world… not like it matters. If one of the only Alicorns in existence couldn’t believe me, then no one will. If he didn’t knew the spell, then it was naught to try and ask another.

I continue to push the drill none stop, my arms wanted to give up, but I refused too, I returned to my thoughts to numb the pain a little.

I wasn't necessary alone, Solaris always came before the time to sleep to talk to me during the month I was temporarily living in the castle, and the guards standing outside my room were pretty friendly. They always told me that I would remember my name someday, which I tried telling them was unnecessary because my memory was fine. They helped me with some history about all that had happened so far, it seemed that I was sent to the old Equestria, Celestia and Luna were just foals. The guards told me over and over how to properly greet royalty, and told me that I have to bow to them when I see them which I wanted to refuse at the time. It ended poorly, with me being forced to sit and hear the so many 'why' I had to bow to royal blood. Not to mention the proper way to speak ‘Old Equestrian’...

But why can I only remember Solaris and some of the guards? I remember that there was... there was… who? I know that time that I meet... I meet someone? who was it? I remember it was a she... she was someone special to Solaris... but who....

"Agh! what on Equis is going on!?" Another spike of pain came from my head forcing me to shatter my drill and crutch my head with one arm while using the other to support myself on the wall.

"Wake up..." Came a female voice that was filled with motherly care, It made me feel safe... and somehow more sleepy so I just ignored the voice and continue trying to sleep.

"Come on, young colt, it is of the time to wake up." Said the female voice while a hand started to shake me from my back.

"Five more minutes..." I said slowly while putting the covers closer to me.

"Thou need to wake up young one, the sun have risen for a while now and thou need to eat." Said the female voice again, while putting more pressure on my back.

"Ugh, okay okay, I am up!" I said while getting up on a sitting position on the bed, I try to rub my eyes of the dizzy feeling, and tried to look at whoever wake me up from my slumber.

"Come on young colt, time to eat." Said the female in front of me, I saw a green blur that after some seconds It became a woman, or a pony as they call themselves.

She was a head taller than me too, her fur color was light green, while her eyes were dark brown, her mane being of a three different shades of dark green. In her head was a long green horn, her cloths were just a pink tunic that covered her completely from the shoulders to the foot, or hooves in the case of those ponies. On top of her head rested another crown this one being a bit smaller than Solaris but with more gems of different colors.

"Uhhmm, good morning miss...." I let it stay and she understood it quicker than Solaris did.

A giggle filled the room. "My name is Queen Gaia of the Equestrian Empire young colt, we have heard many things about thou from our consort, he mention about thine name being forgotten many times, and so I decide to see thee in person." Said Gaia with a gentle smile.

I got up quickly and made a deep bow to the princess, which she just try to stiffed some of her giggles because of it.

"Thou does not need to bow to us young colt, thou are a child. No need to be so formal with us.” Said the Queen.

"Oh, Okay then, sorry it is just… nevermind" I said while scratching the back of my head. Can’t really throw the Guards under the metaphorical bus.

More giggling. "Nay, do not worry thyself. Thou have nothing to apologise for. Now, thou need to get up and go eat.” She said with a kind smile.

"Okay! I am pretty much starving." I said, and much to my embarrassment a growl came from my belly, which made Gaia giggle a bit more loudly than before.

"Then let us venture to the eating hall." Said Gaia, while giving me her hand to help me get up.

"Okay, lets go." I said while grabbing her hand.

Gaia..., yeah, I remember now, she was Solaris' wife, she was very beautiful and treated everyone as if they were her own children, I never saw her mad with anyone during my stay in the castle.

I resumed my work again, the pain in my arms and legs somehow seemed to disappear while my muscles seemed to stop burning me every time I moved them, it was as if somehow the memories help me recover from what happened to me.

I started to walk forward again, thinking about the past.

I remember when I got to be in the throne room, the room was beautiful, two thrones, one golden and the other yellow, both of them with a giant gem in the center. There was that time I got caught sitting on the throne room by one of the guards, he made me clean it and try to make me write an apology to the King and Queen, that made us to discover something new... I couldn't write equestrian, we speak the same language yet the letters were different, heck I got like three guards always tutoring me thanks to that, it was like school just that this was 24/7! and that was just my fourth day!

I started to smile as the images from the past came to me, there were holes in there but I knew that I would remember in time. I then notice that I didn't know how much time passed since I started making the hole to freedom, where it seconds or where it hours? I didn't really care and decide to continue till I couldn't move anymore. My body felt oddly energized too, not like when I woke up.

What is expecting me outside? how long was I dead? and why do I need to see Celestia so badly? What If I was dead for a year, or even a month? Could she take care of the kingdom by herself? Could she do it and take care of Luna at the same time? I ask myself....

But… what of Solaris? Gaia? Why not searching for them? I remember them, surely they are out there somewhere?

"AHHHHHH" The pain this time made me black out, it was too much, so much pain, I couldn't take it and let unconsciousness take hold of me.

Pain... why can't I move... my right arm feels numb.... my legs feel like they are burning....

*CRASH-CRACK-BOOM*

What is that sound... where did it came from?

"Take this foul beast!" Said a familiar male voice.

What was I doing... what is happening?

"Solaris, is no use! our magic does not affect it!" Said another familiar voice, this one being female.

I open my eyes slightly and all I could see was some rubble, I was looking at the destroyed throne room from a corner, I could feel my legs being crushed by some of the debris. Debris? What?

"My Lord! We need to escape! We cannot defeat that… that demon!! our attacks made nothing to its skin but made it angry!!" Said a male voice... was it a guard? I think his name was Quake....

"..." Came the reply, the sound of fighting and cries of pain could be hear in the distance. What is happening?

I try to push myself up using my left arm, the world started to spin and I couldn't focus on one place at the time, I needed to get up…

-͎̞̖͚̳̬̱͈̲̥͚̻̣̝͕͉ͩ͐ͭ̌ͫ̐̐̽̍ͦ̂̒ͧ͆̾͟͠͠͞͠f͍͇̲̎ͪ͛͛͆̐̏̽ͥͤ̃͆̍ͩ̀̚͝͠u͕̠͔̝̪̠̪̹̝͎̬̜͍̐̒̊̒̓͗͒͌̀͜͞͞.̷̛̫̼̰̱̝̘̬̀̊̓̄͂.̴̴̥̮̰̤̦͖͉͎͕ͥͪ͆͒͐͐̄̽̅́ͫͪͮͨ̕͡͝.̨̲̺͓̩̹̔̈́͐ͦ̓͝g̨̫̲̘͚̞̹͓̙̘͇͉ͬ͆̔͒͐̊͒̽ͩͮ͋̚͝͡͡͞ͅ.̢̺͎̹͉̼̖̟͇͉̼̦̍̋ͭ̄̆̈͊̕.̸̧̛̹̣͎̱̘̦̮̖̼̼̹̲̝͑̔̐̒͋̐͊ͥͩ̌̒̕.̸͕̭͚̹̰̂̈́̃̍ͬ̅ͬ͂̾̌̚͞y̶̛ͤͪ̄̉̓̽͏̩̯̤̠̠̙͙̤̭̰̟͕̻̼̕

"My lord! the beast is concentrating a great amount of magic in its mouth! It’s going to attack!!!" Yelled a random male voice.

I look at the way the shout came and I saw a giant beast, it was something I believe once was only a fictional character...

In front of me stood no other than Deliora in all its glory, and it was charging a power able to annihilate cities if I remember correctly. I try to get up, but the debris on my legs let me pin down. "Ru-*cough cough*" I wanted to told them to run, to save them self, the attack was unstoppable as far as I knew.

I could see soldiers lying around me, somewhere moaning and groaning, while others stood there, their eyes lifeless, just staring at nothing, there where members sticking out from some of the debris.

How did this happen? I asked myself, my vision started to blur and I could only make some colors, then I saw two bright lights appear on in front of me, making me try to cover my eyes. But couldn’t so I forced them shut.

"Father! mother! NOOOO!" Came from a girl that I couldn't see, next thing I know I am sitting on the side of a mountain looking at a the kingdom from afar, around me where many ponies, some were civilians and other were guards and maids, but I couldn't see two of the most important ponies I knew....

BOOOOOOM!!!!

I looked to where the sound came from and feel my heart froze, my vision returned just in time to see how the mighty Equestrian Castle blow up in a explosion that made the earth tremble.

"NOOOOOOOOO! MOTHER! FATHER!" I looked the way the screaming came from. When my eyes fell on the one that screamed, I could feel my heart shattering to pieces.

In front of me on her knees crying was a little filly, barely six years old, her pink mane and white fur gave up who she was. Clutching to her was another crying girl, this one just a foal of four years. I couldn't see her clearly but I knew who she was. Luna was covered in many layers of clothes, while Celestia got her favorite yellow tunic. The ache in my chest grew and a lump formed in my throat.

The world was… colorless. There was just so much going on around me. Why? This… this was not what I signed for. I knew of war, I knew of dead, I knew of so many things that happen in the world that made me feel disgusting on my fellow humans but…

How should I react? Was this even real? So many questions… the pain in my heart became numb as I looked at the molten and broken land…

Why? What kind of world is this? This… this is not like the show! There weren’t supposed to be Zeref’s demons in here. Is.. is this because of me? Did Deliora came to life because of my presence in this world? It… I resemble Gray in more ways than one. Even my voice… Deliora was HIS enemy. Connecting the dots…. wouldn’t it be that all of this, was because of me?

Why couldn’t I live in peace? Like back home? Just… live and die of old in this world? Like any person would want? Be a baker or a janitor. I never cared for such things, just so I could live in peace and die of old age… But now, what is there for me? What is there for… us? For the survivors?

My eyes didn’t wander away from the remains of the place I began to call home. Ignoring all the screams, sobs, and pain coming from the ponies around me.

That was the day my life changed, that... was the day my path was chosen without my knowing. The day when the first of many trials that lead me to become the protector of ponies was given to me.

That was the day when the King and the Queen died by the hands of a demon…

The day… a scar was made into Equestria…

If only it could have been the last...

I woke up after remembering that tragic moment, I wipe my eyes from the fresh tears I got and looked up, much to my surprise there was light coming from a little hole in front of me. Yeah, now I know why I was thinking about Celestia and not… them.

It was time to get out...

It was time to get some answers…
