I gave my stomach a firm pat and let out a content sigh; I never would have expected Rarity to have a junk food stash with as much as she talks about being a ‘proper lady’. I chuckled a little, she made me endure too many romance movies. More than somepony should ever have to see, I might seem ungrateful for this but my mission still stands. I have to get to Canterlot so hopefully I can be turned back into my human self and then go home.

These ponies have been kind to me and surprisingly they have not questioned why there is another pony who looks and sounds just like Sweetie Belle. Sighing, there was one question that had been eating me up inside and I had to get an answer “Hey Rarity?” she looked at me, “I’ve got a question.”

“Well Crystal dear what is it?” Rarity asked.

“Well every time I say something about.” I groaned this was going to be painful “Every time I ask something about your parents you and Sweetie both just get...really-” I started only for Rarity to cut me off.

“I understand you are curious about what happened to our parents.” Rarity said looking me in the eye “You see when Sweetie Belle was very young our parents,” She started her voice filled with melancholy “They were going to travel Zebrica and the train crashed, they unfortunately died upon impact.” Rarity said giving me a sad smile “But I’m sure they would have loved to meet you even though you can be a bit of a ruffian sometimes.”

I felt horrible for asking that “I-I’m so sorry.” I said blinking at the story I looked up at the clock I think Rarity got what I was doing.

“My, my it is late,” She said sounding a bit more cheerful “You’d best get to bed little filly.” Rarity said pushing me upstairs to my room.

I laid in my bed; this world, for so long I had imagined coming to it but not as a filly though I guess in a way I am coming to terms with my cruel fate. I shifted around a bit, while this bed was comfortable I couldn’t sleep; I had an odd feeling in my chest it wasn’t a pain but I don’t know how to explain it if I think about it.

Both Rarity and Sweetie Belle have been great hosts and I will hate myself when I have to leave but I will make sure to leave them a little gift. I sighed albeit a bit louder than I had expected to. “Well then seems like I have no other option than to sit here until I fall asleep.” I mumbled but that’s when I noticed something in the corner of my eye.

I turned my head and saw a small box almost like the ones you’d put a piece of jewelry in. I turned the little bedside lamp on and grabbed the box. It had odd little floral designs on it, I couldn’t resist the urge to open it so that’s just what I did.

And when I opened it I saw a small note inside, I picked the note up and began scanning it and it brought a tear to my eye. I looked in the box again and saw a gem that had been perfectly cut into the shape of a lily. It was beautiful and I was touched that Rarity had went to such measures to give me a little trinket.

I wiped my eyes and sat the box on my bedside table where it once had been. If there is some chance that I can’t return home then I am promising this: I am promising that I will not give Rarity such a hard time but if I can return home then… well I want them there with me before I return.

Yawning, I turned off my lamp. Knowing me, I’m going to try and sleep in tomorrow.

I stood in an empty field and something felt off. I looked and noticed that I had hands again but they were smaller.Something wasn’t right, the first thing being I have hands again and the second thing is I did not go to sleep in some random field, I would have clearly remembered that.

“What is going on here?” I said aloud, noticing my voice was the same high pitched tone it usually is. I looked around for something, a mirror or even a puddle so I could see what I looked like but so far I didn’t see one well from standing around.

I began exploring the field a bit, it felt a little weird walking on two feet again. I could feel the wet grass in between my toes with every step I took, I continued to walk and shuddered a bit from the cold. I could feel the goosebumps on my arms and legs.

I looked up, seeing the clear sky, the moon, and the stars were clearly visible. It caused me to smile a bit. I felt a gentle breeze and when I began looking back to my path I soon started walking again, back on Earth I had never really seen a sky as clear as this one.

But for some reason I couldn’t shake this feeling it felt like I was being watched by someone or something and I know I can be paranoid sometimes; but it honestly feels like I’m being watched by who or what I don’t know.

When I stopped I saw a pond, it was beautiful and the water was so clean it was like a new mirror, reflecting the moonlight. Looking down I noticed something, I was indeed a human again but what really threw me off was my face; it was not my normal face, it instead looked like that of a young child.

My eyes were the same green color but my hair...my hair was the same pink and purple swirl that I have grown used to seeing but not as messy as when I usually wake up. Soon the water began to ripple and I blinked then I saw it; I saw another reflection in the pond even though it was distorted.

“Hello young one.” I jumped, knowing that voice all too well. I’m not sure if this is a dream or a nightmare.
