Once I had arrived to my house, I opened the door to find both my parents sitting on the couch watching tv.
"Hey sweetie, how'd it go?" my mother asked with a smile on her face, just eager to hear about my day.
"It was alright, Jenny and I went horseback riding at her ranch and you know, it was fun," I said trying to keep myself from exposing my emotions within.
"Well that's great honey!" I turn to see my dad nod at me with a grin. I gave a nod back to him as I headed towords the kitchen to clean the piece of jewelry. Before coming home, I looked on my phone to see how to clean fine jewelry. I tried out one method and it seemed to be working.
The dirt and the dust was clearing off and, once it finished drying, I notice that ther is some writing on the back. I took it up to my room to observe it even closer. Once I got there, I held the amulet up to the light see the words clearly.
It said "From man to pony, pony to man, may two worlds come together, friendship and harmony is at hand."
What?... Just then, sparks of light start to appear, flashing, and the amulet in my hands began to glow. All of a sudden, there's this bright light, and my body feels light, as of I were floating on air. Then I start feeling as if I were flying. It actually felt good. It seemed like I could go on forever. Then suddenly, I start falling, and falling, and falling, until I hit the ground.
It didn't hurt as much as I thought it would, but it did hurt. "Aw man, what happened?" trying to adjust my eyes to the change of light. Once they settled, I looked around to see that I was in an open field.
"Did this thing just sent me outside?" I wanted to rub my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing things, but as I look to where my hand was suppose to be, I instead saw a hoof. "Huh?"
I turn to look at my other arm to make sure I wasn't going crazy, and all I saw was another hoof. I had a pair of hooves where my hands were suppose to be. Sitting up I checked the rest of my body, and to my surprise, and horror, I had another pair of hooves where legs were suppose to be.
Ok, it's official, I've gone completely insane!"
I needed to see what I looked like. Looking around, I noticed a lake in the distance. I tried to stand up on my hind legs, but I kept losing balance until I decided to just go on all fours.
Ok, it's just like crawling, but with hooves, and besides, I've seen how horses, ponies, and donkeys do it, so it shouldn't be that hard. Just think crawling.
I put one hoof after the other. It felt as if I were an infant learning how to crawl. I was starting to get the hang of it, so I picked up the pace and I went from trotting to galloping. In no time at all, I reached the lake. I had to slow down so that I wouldn't crash into it. I slowly approached the water to look at my reflection. I nearly fell back when I saw not my face, but the face of a PONY, THAT LOOKED JUST LIKE ME!!!
Please let this be a dream!
I thought as I slapped myself in hopes of waking up from this nightmare. Looking back into the water, I saw the same pony face. no I thought as dunked my head into the lake, but it was all to no avail. I kept dunking my head in the water, refusing to accept what had just happened to me
no...no...no NO NO NO!!!!! Looking up to the sky, I decided to just let it all out .
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!"
I fell to the ground after that, feeling the whole world crashing down on me. I laid there just thinking how could this had happened to me. Just when my life was already starting to become perfect, this happened, and now I have no idea how to get back home. Then it hit me, the amulet. If that thing brought me here, then it has to bring me back home. I got up and galloped back to where I was a moment ago .
Trying to pick it up with my hooves, I turn it around so that I cold see the writing. I read the words on the amulet and I closed my eyes. So far I felt nothing. I opened one eye and I saw the same outdoors scenery.
Huh? How am I still here?
I read the words again and I got the same results, nothing. I kept reading it over and over again until the words on the amulet started to glow. The writing changed and it said something new. I looked down to read what it said.
To go back from which you came, wait 12 hours in your day. The words glowed again and the original words reappeared. Although this time, a timer appeared below and it was counting back from 12 hours.
"Wait, what, are you telling me I have to wait 12 hours? GREAT NOW I'M STUCK HERE INSIDE A PONY'S BODY!!!!!" I couldn't wait 12 hours. I mean what's going to happen back home when my parents find out I'm missing. Sadly I new that the only way back was to wait 12 hours until this thing resets or whatever, and I can't just sit here for that long. I have to find some civilization, if any.
Looking around, I saw a tall tree and got an idea. If I'd climb that tree, then I might be able to spot a village or town or something. I got up, put the amulet around my neck and I started off in the direction the tree was. Arriving at the base of the tree, I wrapped my legs around the trunk and started to climb. It was a bit difficult then I had expected it to be. I've always been a able to climb trees easy back home, but that was when I was still human.
Here, I'm a pony with hooves, and worse, no thumbs. It was easier to climb with my hind legs since they had a little bit of a grip to the branches I stepped on, but was difficult with my front legs. It took a while until I was actually high enough to get a good view of the area. I searched around in hopes of finding civilization, and lucky for me, I spotted what seemed to be a village in the distance. "Huh, hopefully the people there might be able to help."
Suddenly, I hear something that was breaking and snapping. I looked down to see what it was and it was the branch that I was standing on. It was beginning to break. I tried to keep myself calm and not make any sudden moves through all the panic that I had within. Unfortunately, the branch broke under my weight and I was falling a good 10 to 15 feet down. I landed on pile of leaves which did help break my fall. I just laid there in pain, and I wanted to stay, but I couldn't, I have to go to that village, I have to get out of here. Slowly getting up from all the pain I was going through, I began to move in the direction of the village.
