Chapter Three: The World of Death
The darkness enveloped me, Death surrounded me.
I opened my eyes and took a gulp of air, i felt like i hadn't breathed in months. I was laying on a large, rectangular white platform that stretched for about half a kilometer. I looked back and found that I was a few meters from the edge, I walked over and looked over it, Blackness.
I'd better not fall down there
Thoughts passed through my head as I remembered the events that had passed. Panic rose within me
where am I? I can't be dead! Not yet
"How can one so foolish hold the hopes to our victory?" A voice behind me said
I turned, prepared for an attack, what I saw next though I could not prepare for. A jet black Alicorn stallion stood on the other end of the white bridge facing me. He held an emotionless look on his face. I tried to understand what was in front me to no avail. I crouched, getting my legs ready for whatever came next.
"Who- no what are you!?" I demanded the Alicorn
"I am what you see in front of you, nothing more nothing less" he said calmly, his voice giving nothing away
"Well then at least tell me where I am!"
"You are on the verge of death-" The words sent shocks throughout my body
"Wha-what do you mean!?" I cut in panicking
No...no...please no...
"-and without my help you will die within minutes" he finished
I fell to the ground, knowing what he had said was true, tears sprung from my eyes
"Damnit! Damn it all!" I punched the white floor with my right hoof
"But I can save you" The words made my head spring up "for a cost"
"what cost?" I asked cautiously, not knowing what the Alicorn would say
"That when the time comes you shalt help me until your debt is fulfilled"
"And just what the hell does that mean?" I asked
"It means that when I ask you, you will retrieve an...item for me"
"Sounds easy enough, but why can't you do it?" my eyes narrowed
"Because nopony must know of my existence, not yet anyway"
"And just why the hell not?" I demanded
"Because there is more going on in this world than you will ever know"
"Go get it yourself" I said turning my back towards him
"I would do what I say right now if you want to live" the words were whispered in my ear. I turned in surprise and felt my chest get slammed by a hoof. Wind escaped me as I looked down towards where I had been hit, a strange black marking was being shown on my fur as It slowly sunk into my body.
"That is to make sure that you don't betray me" he said, walking away
"But I never said-" I started
"But you want to, and that is why you will do as I say" he said before getting surrounded in a white light. The light suddenly disappeared leaving nothing where the Alicorn once stood
shit
Suddenly a blinding light surrounded me, I tried to close my eyes to no avail as the light pierced my eyelids. I fell to the ground trying to cover my eyes, I screamed in pain as I couldn't stop the light. I lost consciousness.
Remember Blaze?
