//------------------------------// // III - Confusion // Story: Alone // by Alfoals Trottenbauer //------------------------------// "No..." He said, depressed. "No!" He shouted. What the hay was going on here!? He turned away from the ponies and galloped to the castle. As he walked inside, there were guards at the door, frozen. One of them was missing their eyes, although there was no blood, just empty eye sockets. The other seemed to be shocked, his pupils were shrunken. He seemed to be galloping away from something. He trotted past them, into Celestia's hallway. She stood tall as always, admiring one of her stained glass windows. Her face was out of view. Ace cantered in front of her. Her eyes were gone without blood too, she had a happy expression on her face, a hoof on her chin. He wondered what the hay was going on, how this was happening. He dashed out of the castle, not wanting to be there any longer. He didn't look where he was going. He tripped and fell off the cliff face, sent plummeting to his certain death, screaming. He hit the ground snout first. An agonizing, short pain was felt as his head telescoped into his body as his bones shattered and blood spilled... Retaining his consciousness, he suddenly lost any sensation.
