Welcome to my World- Chapter 9 : Goodbye
By Maxis122
Max was now among the people in the viewing chamber who were watching Twilight getting ready to perform the teleport spell. The atmosphere was tense and Max couldn’t help but keep thinking that someone was getting ready to make a run for the nuclear launch controls. After looking around the room again he looked back down at the chamber again. It was almost time for them to go.
“Max” Blackburn called into the room and Max looked to the door. “It’s time” Max then walked over to the door and followed Blackburn downstairs to the teleport room. There was a feeling of sadness as he descended. It had only been a day but Max just wanted to be with her for longer. He just had to accept that this was how it was meant to be.
They walked in and Rainbow Dash ran up to Max with joy. “I’m going to go home, isn’t that great” she seemed so happy to leave but he couldn’t blame her. All that she has really got from this world is that it is a soulless shithole. But nevertheless the time she spent with Max was probably the best time she had. Max gave her a place to sleep even when he had so little.
Twilight had grown friendships with some of the people and found that the world was a really nice place. Even thought this world was looking bleak and at its end she had only good feeling of this place. Max continued to stay strong as he watched Rainbow Dash walk over to Twilight.
Max then walked up to the two and began to say his goodbye “It’s been a short time for our meeting but I can count it as a good one. It’s nice to know that we are not alone in this universe and I hope our friendship will...” Max then broke off and began to tear up a bit.
“You ok?” Blackburn asked. Max wiped the tears from his face and looked up again. He took a deep breath and sniffed.
“I hope our friendship will last, even when we are worlds apart” Max said. He then knelt down and held out his fist. Rainbow Dash and Twilight then raised theirs and they all put then in the middle. A sign of respect and just ran through everyone as the three joined.
“It doesn’t matter where we are, we will always remember you” Rainbow Dash said. She was keeping all her tears in as she was trying to make an impression. Same old Rainbow Dash there. Max then walked back and watched Rainbow Dash and Twilight move back. This was it, the end of them seeing each other.
Twilight then closed her eyes and Rainbow Dash watched Max for a moment before saying “Goodbye”. Then the air around the room started to pull towards the two ponies as Twilights horn lit up. A purple energy started to channel around the two as the spell gained power. The energy gained speed and Twilight was in total focus.
A brilliant force of energy swept across the room and funnelled around the two ponies. Soon only the white outlines of the ponies could been seen in the area. Then the energy met its full potential and expanded. Then all at once the energy compressed into a single point. Then they were gone.
Max watched as if they were still there, but now they were gone. They were safe. Everyone then began to walk away and go back to the main part of the building. Max stayed for a minute as he just needed a moment to take in all that had happened over the last few days.
This was all as real as it would get, there world was real. Better yet this world would live on as now these ponies didn’t exist anymore, well, at least in this world. Apart from that this had changed Max’s view on the universe all together. Now he had reason to believe that the universe had much more than met the eye.
Max walked back to where all the other people had gone and now it was time to split up. Blackburn nodded to the military and they marched away. He looked to the scientists and the suits. They then all left as well. Max was the only civilian there; Blackburn then approached him and smiled.
“You did good kid” Blackburn said.
“Didn’t really do much” Max said. “You guys did the hard work”.
“If it wasn’t for you then we wouldn’t have gotten Rainbow Dash” said Blackburn as he put on his sunglasses. He stood next to Max for a moment and then looked out of the hanger. “It’s time for us to split and go our separate ways” Blackburn finally said.
“Where are we?” asked Max.
“We are nowhere” Blackburn said as he kept everything confidential even when he was relaxed. A van then approached the two and the back doors opened. Blackburn hopped inside and then turned to Max. “Well, you coming?”
“Going where?” Asked Max.
“Back home for you, another conspiracy for me” Blackburn said. Max then climbed into the van and Blackburn closed the doors. The van began to move, it was the same van from before. Just without guards and ponies.
The journey this time didn’t seem to last as long. It was quite, there was no conversation. Just thinking and memories. They came to the end of the street where Max lived and Blackburn opened the back door.
“Good luck kid” Blackburn said. Max jumped out and the van disappeared into the maze of housing behind. Max looked down this broken street. He began to walk at a moderate pace and the route was the same as before. He was back to normal and nothing was going to be different for the foreseeable future.
Max then came to the house that he had come across before. He looked to it only to remember Rainbow Dash, he didn’t need these feelings. All he needed was to get home. He watched the path move below him. It was then when he came to his house, with the cracked house tile to the right. Max searched his pockets and found his key.
After placing the key into the hole Max was able to push the door open. He looked inside to see nothing of significance. It was just his house. Max then walked up the stairs and threw his coat on the bed. Then he pressed the power button to his laptop and sat down. The loading process was quick and this enabled Max to turn off and relax.
Max then turned on the news and click on his local area. The top news was an event from yesterday where a cyan blue pony was spotted. Max then continued to read as the information became more and more convincing. Max then only needed to back up to see that this was the world news, this was his world.
