My days here has been fun to say the least. Aside from the boring stuff of absolutely nothing happening, annoying Twilight was always fun, I try not to do it too much though. Don't want a repeat of what happened before... Nope. Definitely not.
As I was saying, everything was all hunky-dory... Until it happened. A stupid decision from a bored idiot. But at least something good happened right?
"Come on Twilight. It's fine if I go outside at night isn't it?" I tried to argue but obviously she was having none of it, she even sighed to show her thought.
"You know we can't do that yet. We still haven't started the plan to let ponies know of you yet. Me and the girls are talking about what we should do, just stay still, I promise that we'd think of something."
After saying that sentence, she was back to silence and writing. If she doesn't stop writing so much, that pen I gave her will run out of ink. Even I wasn't able to do that on my school life.
Well, that talk was a bust. What to do now? Hmm, I'm going to sneak out later. It's too interesting outside not to walk around. Sorry Sparkles, can't stop my wanderlust.
Saying sorry to Twilight, my plan was now in action, I just started it by lazily lying around waiting for night to come.

I slowly opened my eyes, sit up silently, tip-toe sneakily. Doing everything I can to prevent Twilight from finding out my plan, lo and behold, the door to the outside, all I need to do now is to touch the door and open it and be free... For FREEDOM!!
I rushed towards the door and quickly opened it just in case it was going to creak, I'm bolting for it but contrary to creaking, it was actually silent. Huh, how anti-climactic. Oh well.
Though for some reason, there was this itch in my palm when I touched the door. They should clean that door.

I'm out but there's nothing to do here as well. What a bust.
With that thought in mind, I just walk around, making sure not to go towards the homes. If I remember correctly, there was a forest near Shy's shack. Adventure Time!
With my 'New' plan, I went towards the direction in mind, hopefully this would be a good adventure.
~|(\_/)|~

Found Shy's shack. To the left? Nothing worthy of note. To the right? My destination. If I remember something, it was called... Everfree Forest? Sounds like a forest for the now free human then.
With my fist balled up and held in the air like a boxing champ winning, I walked towards the forest with a smile on my face and anticipation beating in my heart.
I wonder what I can find here? Adventure, adventure! Now I know how that little girl Dora feels.
One step in the forest and instantly, a thought came into my mind.
Something feels... Different.
But I quickly took that thought out of my mind, this world is already the very meaning of different. And so am I.
"Hmm, nothing out of the ordinary, other than your typical trees in a forest. Odd, no forest creature in sight."
I look around the area as I walk tirelessly. Still nothing note-worthy happening.
Well, except for that hut I saw a while ago but I'd rather not enter it in hopes of finding pots to break. That's called breaking and entering, trespassing even. Especially at this time of the night, I'm no deviant you know... Then again I did sneak out when told not to but this and that are two different matters and... What am I doing?
I sighed at myself and my apparent stupidity of trying to justify my own stupid reason to myself. This sentence makes me look crazy. I should just get a move on already before I start to question my sanity.
Continuing on my walk I hear some rustling coming from some tall grass to the left. I instantly froze on the spot, sweat started pooling in my back and getting cold feet to continue walking.
Shit.
I looked towards the rustling and out came a... Chicken..? What the heck?
Though I was startled at first, seeing a chicken in a forest seem weird... But strangely relaxing.
Damn it, getting startled by a chicken, this forest is good at making one feel on edge. I might come back here for more some time.
I shoo'ed it away but it refused to budge and only looked at me... Staring, unblinking.
I was starting to think that something was wrong with this creepy chicken but it soon went closer and pecked my feet, after a few pecks and it walked towards the location it came from.
I looked at it warily but it kept coming back and forth, like it was trying to tell me to go with it. I couldn't really think of anything else of why I shouldn't do it so I went with it. Of course, the creepy staring helped in making me follow.
I soon entered the tall grass and a thought instantly came to my mind.
Hopefully, no monsters exists in tall grass, I don't have my starter and I definitely don't have repels.
I chuckled at my own thought, thinking about games and music tends to be relaxing at most times.
Even though I was following the chicken, there was this feeling that's creeping in my mind that someone, somepony or something is watching me.
Don't turn around. Don't turn around. Don't turn around. Damn it, why is it so hard to stop this cliche?!
Inevitably, I looked at my back and found nothing. Cliche indeed. I looked in front of me again but horror soon covered my visage. No, not because of some scary ghost, not some kind of demon, not a monster as well. It's way worse. I got lost in an unknown forest, the tour guide chicken no where in sight...
DAMN YOU CHICKEN!!
I frantically searched around for the clucking menace but found nothing.
Should have never followed that chicken!
Grumbling at my own stupidity, I try to remember the way I came from.
Well, that was at least until I heard a...
"Uwaaaaaaaa!!"
A scream, high pitched too. Luckily I was far from the voice's owner or I would've been deaf for a few minutes... Wait, this isn't the time for this!
Shaking the stupid thought I had away, I ran as fast as I could towards the area where I heard the scream, not taking notice of the things I stepped on or the places I moved to... I soon then found who it was and why that pony screamed.
"Holy shit." I couldn't stop my self from saying that... I mean, look at that thing! What the fuck is that?!
Lion head, scorpion tail, it even has those scary looking fangs and claws... It was chasing after three little ponies.
Fuck.
Fuck,
FUCK!!
I want to help those children but... What the fuck can I do?! My power is useless! All it does is illusions! Nothing more nothing less! Fuck. Fuck... Fuck... What should I do? There's nothing I can do here, need to find someone that can help. please, no matter what, try to stay alive you three!
I turn around ready to ran as fast as I could, but... Is leaving them to search for someone really the right thing to do? Aren't I just leaving them to die? Then again, there's nothing else I CAN do. Fuck, I'm sorry children.
I took my first step away and before I could start running, I heard another scream.
God damn it. I'm gonna hate and love myself for this.
I couldn't do it. I couldn't leave them alone to die. As a responsible adult, I guess this is the right thing to do.
I saw one of the three ponies couldn't get up, must have sprained herself or something, also, the big creature was swinging its claw down, no more time to think I jumped straight in between the claw and the pony and quickly grabbed the pony away before we both get squashed.
The other two wanted to go near their friend but apparently, they were still wary of me, I let the pony in my arms go, and told them to run away as far away from here as possible, and also, to go get some help.
It didn't take them one moment before they left the area, muttering words of thank you and be careful.
The creature, now looking more angrier than ever apparently from the lost 'dinner' it was going to have now set its sight on me.
If I ever survive this... I will never fucking go back to this fucking forest.
That is, if I still survive...
