Ch. 3: A Time to Stand

I thought I was dead. But something happened before the pony could take me. A blinding light snapped me out of her spell, I don’t know. All I know is that Dinky’s gone. And mother won’t wake up.
When that pony left, I was still dazed a bit. I sat up and looked around. The sun was up, and it seemed that time was back in motion. I thought it was just a dream or something, but then I saw mother.
She wasn’t waking up, and she was stone cold. Thankfully, she wasn’t dead, but she sure was close. I brought her to the Ponyville hospital, but they couldn’t figure out what happened to her. She seemed ok, but she was in some sort of magic-induced coma that they couldn’t break. I had to figure out what happened to her. And I knew just the pony. But first, I had to tell Aunty what happened.
I ran straight to her house after mother was settled into the hospital. At least Aunty was allright, she was gardening in the garden. When I got to her, she saw that I was distressed, so we went inside so I could tell her what happened. When I finished, she’d already stopped crying.
“You have to find him, Amethyst. Only he would know what’s happing. As much as I disagree with the idea, it’s the only chance we got. I’ll go check in with Ditzy. Where’s Dinky?”
I couldn’t say anything, but my silence spoke for itself. “I’ll find Papa, Aunty. I’ll find him and Dinky, and the others. Don’t you worry, just make sure Mother’s alright. “
Before I left, Aunty ran inside and brought me something. “It was for Dinky’s Birthday. If you find her, make sure to give her this.” It was an emerald neckless. I hoped I would find her all right. We said our goodbyes, and as I walk away, I could hear her crying. I hoped she and Mother would be ok.
That day, I swore to myself, I will find that pony, and she will pay for what she’s don! And with that, I went on a journey I never expected
