My eyes opened from a long sleep. I lifted my head up and instantly I felt weird. My vision wasn't normal and my head was pounding. It's like my sleep didn't help me, it destroyed me. My thoughts were messed and the world seemed to be spinning faster...if it even spins. I got up on weak legs. "uhg." I groaned. Maybe if I walked more I could shake the feeling off. I walked out of the barn and instantly the sun blinded me.
I covered my eyes with my hoof. I waited for my eyes to adjust which they did. I began my wobbly walk around. "Good morning Hidden." I turned to see Applejack coming to me. "Hey Applejack." I replied. "Pinkie came real early today and said she's having the welcome party for you at five today." She told me. "Right, okay I'll remember that." I said. I forgot about that. My mind just isn't working.
I was hiding my pain from Applejack so it seems as though I'm fine. I really don't know what's wrong with me, but it isn't normal. "I have some things I need to look after, see you later." I told Applejack. "Alright then, bye." She said as I left. In my state I couldn't remember what I needed to do. I barely remembered yesterday. My head was messed up and it wasn't getting better. "Hey Hidden Blade! Are you hard of hearing?" I heard the familiar pagasus voice say. I turned to see Rainbow hovering there annoyed.
"Oh what sorry, I'm a bit out of it." I said. I guess she was trying to get my attention but my hearing is messed. "Obviously, what's going on?" She asked. "Honestly I don't know. But I don't like it." "Maybe its that changeling messing with your head." Then I realized it could be Kram. But its impossible, he couldn't have found me. "No, its not the changeling." I replied.
"Well hopefully it clears up before the party." She said. My legs wobbled a bit but I recovered. "Also there was no luck in finding Kram or whatever." She added. She looked concern about my behaviour but I could handle myself. "Its alright Dash, we'll find him." It felt weakened by the fact we were on a hill and the ground beneath me was slanted. It felt like I could fall at any moment.
"Are you okay?" She asked. "I'm fine-" As if those words triggered something my legs wobbled and I couldn't recover. I fell forward into Rainbow, luckily she was somehow able to keep herself up and she help me from the ground. It was weird but before I could react to the situation my mind began showing me images of the dream I had. Images of the destruction of my world and this one.
I felt anger and revengeful towards Kram but then the feeling was quickly replace by sadness as it showed the ponies and my family dead. I was reminded of what was at stake and what needed to be done. "Its either you need medical help for the mind thing or you really like me." Rainbow said and that's when I realized I was in her arms. I quickly jumped from her with a little blush.
I wanted to punch myself for that but luckily the awkward situation is over. "I may need a little help." I admitted. "No duh. Come on lets get you to the hospital." I really didn't want to go there, too many ponies. "Please no! I mean, too shy, anything else." She seemed confused by that but she just said: "Uh okay, how about Fluttershy, she's good at fixing animals up, how different can a pony be." She said. "Okay come on."
She began leading me. I was stumbling around and tripping over myself practically the whole time. I could see what appeared to be a cottage up ahead but I focused too much and I fell face first into the road. Rainbow landed beside me looking worried. "Need help?" She asked. "Yes." I admitted. She stepped beside me for support and I put a hoof around her to keep me steadied.
"We're almost there." Dash said. We eventually made it and she knocked at the door. My mind is hazy at that moment. Due to the fact that I wasn't feeling my best. I do remember she answered the door. She seemed shy at first to see me but Rainbow explained that I'v been acting funny so she quickly let us in.
"So what's wrong?" She asked in a very concerned way. I sat down on a couch and instantly my head throbbed so I put my hoof to it. "I feel messed up..." I managed to say rubbing my head sorely. "How?" "I have a m-massive migraine and I can't think clearly." I said with a groan. "Oh dear, here press this to your head." Fluttershy said giving me an ice pack. I pressed it to my head with my hoof.
I noticed Dash roll her eyes. I questioned her but no words came out, so I tried again, the same result. I began to feel worried. What if my head memory was breaking? what if the red matter in me ran out? What if Kram wrecked my time line? All of a sudden Rainbow yelled at me asking "Can you hear me?!" Fluttershy looked really worried.
"Dash...Fluttershy...help..." I muttered. "Okay, just look at me and stay awake." she said. I looked up into her eyes. All of a sudden my head began feeling like it could burst. I gripped it and clenched my teeth. Fluttershy said something to Dash and she walked away. "Come on Blade, keep it together!" Dash yelled at me. I looked weakly at her. My head throbbing.
Then I fell back on the couch and my vision was gone. I heard Dash yelling at me: "Stay awake! Come on!" She was shaking me. Then my horn glowed and a zap flew out. It zapped through the wall and I swear it turned an apple into a butterfly. Then I blacked out.
I looked around and saw that I was back home. But I was still a pony. "Hidden, over here!" I looked over and saw Spike. "Spike?" "Just get over here!" He said. I went over to him and all of a sudden I woke up. I was in Twilight's house. I looked around and saw Twilight, Spike, Pinkie, Flutter and Dash around me. "Yeah, your alright!" Pinkie said hugging me.
I was really happy to still be here. "We were so worried!" Flutter said. "What happened?" I asked. "Your magic over loaded in your head." Twilight explained. "That can happen? Dash asked. "Not usually...but Hidden Blade's magic is...different." Twilight said. I wasn't surprised, I wasn't even suppose to be a unicorn.
I really respected them, they were...are the best friends I'v ever had. I think they deserve to know a little more about my situation. "Guys...I think you deserve to kno-*" I was cut off when Twilight said why my magic is different. "Hidden Blade's magic is...dragon."
