Day 40-41, The Calm Before The Storm. (2)

July 1st, 2015

Dear Journal,

Bored, very very bored. Helped Alex again today. I'm so damned bored and hot… I wanna do something fun…

I'm still thinking about that dream yesterday. "Do not falter from your path" what did she even mean by that…? Did she mean like my destiny? Or…. No… I shouldn't say anything like that.

I read more of that book just because I wanted to. It would be cool if Arthur had some kind of "partner." Not a lover, just someone to be there for him with his cruel fate.

Like me and Alex.

Not much else to report today, so this is Emile, peace.

Dear Journal,

I had another strange dream today, this one was a bit… "stressful" to say the least… I- I'll just try my best to describe it.

This time, I saw a group of ponies in a city, one normal pony, one unicorn, and one pegasus across from them were three people… Human. They were all wearing these strange suits, they looked hazmat suits, a bit armored though. Two of them were armed while the one who wasn't armed had a suit that was different from the others. I couldn't see their faces, the suits had some kind of weird letters on them, I couldn't make them out either.

One of the men turned to him. "Your orders Dr, ä̸̛̫͉́͠K̸̺͔̅̅̈́ȅ̵̡̮̺͍͙̞ȑ̴̘̐͗͆͠p̷̬̗̊͌̒r̸̡̹̻̽̿̏̃?"

I couldn't make out his name. But he turned to him and said, "Kill them."

"Roger."

He pointed his rifle at the unicorn and lit him a blaze, the unicorn tried to dodge the bullets the best he could only getting him by some of them, he charged right at the man and shot a beam from his horn breaking the face cover of the man's hazmat suit right after he fell onto him and died.

The normal pony charged at them next "Damn you…! She wasn't as successful as the unicorn and died quickly.

The pegasus watched as the other two died and immediately darted away, he ran as fast as those little pony legs could take him and-

It ends there.

What. The. Fuck. I've had strange dreams before but what the fuck was that…?

I couldn't even do anything… I just helplessly watched as two innocent people were murdered. And those other people, they were still human… How…? Who are they…?

Are they some kind of secret government agency? If they are, why did they kill them? Why didn't they help them!

I need something to take my mind off this… I just really hope that was only a dream…

Me and Alex finally finished the solar panels! We probably would've finished it sooner if Alex didn't complain about Joseph so much but who cares, it's done now!

So, apparently Joseph made some kind of program to basically shut all the power down and then turn everything back on again, I honestly don't get it. But I think it saves us power or something… Computer magic. Is that what he and John were working on the past couple days?

Joseph's also having trouble getting into the satellite network. Again, not a computer genius here so I barely have any idea about what he's talking about. But basically, he's having trouble with that. He's smart, he'll figure it out, probably.

Computers aside, I've just been helping Alex with whatever he needed help with like I usually do.

We uh talked a bit today too, Alex told me about how much he missed being human, how much he missed his friends and his family… "I just really miss them, y'know?"

Aside from my mom and my uncle I never really had any family, and honestly I'm happy this entire event happened, because of it I've been able to meet so many great people I wouldn't have normally met.

But what about those who did have family, those who did have friends, those who aren't me…

I didn't know what else to say at the time so I just jokingly said "Well, I can be your sister then."

Alex just chuckled a bit and when I asked him what's so funny he just said "Nothing, it's nothing."

I felt bad for him so I did what I felt was right at the time… "Well, I'm always here for you if you need me. Remember, we're partners in destiny."

I don't regret it. The old me was such an idiot. It feels nice to have friends, and to just care about people for once…


"Partners in destiny…?"

"Yup. We're both kinda similar, right? So that's what we are, partners in destiny!"

Emile stood up and struck a dramatic pose that looked like something out of a cheesy super sentai show.

"It sounds stupid."

"I know."


I think my childish antics cheered up Alex a bit, and honestly I needed that too. Strange dreams, the event, just everything, I needed a moment to just distract myself from all of it. Just a nice little moment of two friends having fun…

Alex Lonely Day heard back from Sky today. Apparently things like their Lake nearby have been drying up, should've expected that to happen sooner or later. Good thing we have a well. We can always give them some water or supplies in general if they need it.

You wouldn't guess who was there with Sky and Moriah, Minuette and Alyssa! Minuette told me they wanted to visit them, so there they are. I'm guessing they took the truck there.

Things seem to be going okay for them too. Alyssa said we might need a couple things like gas and food though.

I think we should build a greenhouse, actually farm on the farm, stuff like that. Alyssa seemed to agree.

Other than that, Madeline seems to be doing good. She's still having trouble walking though. I guess we'll have to teach her too…

Don't worry guys, we'll be back soon. I know it. But as always this is Emile, bye.

Partners in destiny…
