//------------------------------// // Changed // Story: The soul and its old magic (dead story?) // by Theboxcatgamr //------------------------------// Here we are again Another dream but this one feels more...interactive I heard the voice again. "You are doing well. But there is more work to do." The voice stated "The day you were brought here had some...unexpected events." That's putting it mildly considering that I had two eyes at the start of this. "And as a result of your actions I believe you deserve a chance to communicate with a loved one" the voice explained I got excited. I have been through hell and no one knows about it. Finally someone I know I can talk to. "The one who saw the traumatizing event will work" Oh god I have completely forgotten about Brendan. "You will have twenty minutes. And afterwards you can talk anytime whilst you rest." There he was. He just popped into existence and I was already running He had no idea what was going on or what this place was. I didn't care as I ran up and hugged my little brother "Noah?!" He asked with surprise I nodded and he just looked at me in disbelief "Twenty minutes starts now" the voice stated Brendan looked around confused He then saw the bloody, changed version of his brother "What... What have..." He said trying to understand I simply nodded and said "I have been through a few problems" "Dude you look like you just went into one of those fantasy shops and-" he stopped suddenly when he noticed the wings "WHAT IN THE FUCK ARE THOSE?!" I spent the next ten minutes trying to explain magic. I don't think he got it The voice spoke up this time talking to Brendan "You have been gifted with an artefact that will allow cross world communication" The necklace Brendan was wearing started glowing "Time grows short and your twenty minutes is up" There was so much more to say but everything started going blurry as I left the place I was waking up. Fuck my life. –-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile Brendan woke up startled and confused. "Had it been a dream or... No it couldn't have been" he said softly as to not wake up his step brother He looked at the necklace. It was glowing a soft orange He noteced a new note at his bedside "Dear Brendan. You can now contact Noah by focusing your energy on the necklace With this you and Noah will feel tired This is how you will know it is working If others discover the necklace. You could lose all communication with Noah Not even your closest friends should know Not even your family If you truly believe that someone else close to you has a pure soul Don't tell them. I will know - sugar It was real. All of it. Only two people come to mind Noah's best friends Brandon and Alex How would whoever they are know? Only one last thing came to mind as Brendan fell asleep Noah has changed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile I started opening my eyes again. Woke up to twilight doing...? I really don't know but something was in wrong At least I could finally ask about the gauntlet "What did I miss this time?" Twilight jumped and it was clear she didn't know I was awake "Oh you're awake already?" She asked still started "Nevermind that. What's up?" "A strange artifact and a note appeared beside you while you were out" She continued "The note is written in a strange language I'm having trouble deciphering" she said with a bit of salt I got up to take a look at the note much to her disarray "Good luck with that" she said agitated It was written in English. My speciality It read: Dear Noah Like your brother I am also giving you a artifact so you know when he wants to talk Take care not to allow others to contact your world It is of absolute importance that you keep your world safe With love- Sugar It's from sugar. The one who put me in this place The voice. The visions. Was all of it her doing? Twilight looked at me with a smug look "I told you it would be hard." She said "I understand the note. It's in English" I had trouble pronouncing the word. Looks like I made a new word that already exists "What's uh... What's English?" She said with difficulty I explained that was the language that I was born with and learned I wouldn't have expected her to figure it out without me as it really shouldn't have been here I took a look at the necklace. It looked like one of those cheep ripoff necklaces that had a yin and yang symbol on it I only had yin. I'm assuming Brendan has yang. I put on the necklace and finally asked the big question "what is the thing on my hand?" "It's an outsource of magic that really only appears on extremely powerful beasts. At least in terms of magic" My eyes went wide with surprise She knew what I was thinking "Yes Noah. In theory you can create magic." That was by far the craziest thing I ever heard I was ecstatic to see what I could do Twilight motioned me to follow her "Now Noah I want you to do a test to see what we are working with." I nodded as she pointed towards a book "I want you to focus on moving this book up and down" I focused on the book for a moment as my had started glowing as bright as the sun I moved my hand up and the book shot through the roof Twilight jumped back in surprise I lowered my hand slowly and the book returned It was like watching a rock be thrown and then start falling down as light as a feather As the book finally made contact with the table my hand stopped glowing "Sorry about the roof" I said with a nervous laugh Twilight had no response still looking at the book in disbelief The book looked like it was untouched In fact it was still dusty I had to snap twilight out of it. So I poked her in the side For her It was like I had just broke the universe She could only stare Ok it was getting me worried "Are you ok twilight" I asked nothing My hand was still glowing and I still felt the power I made it stop and then practically everything restarted Twilight was confused and a large amount of dust just exploded on the floor near the hole in the roof She finally stopped starring and then looked Around It sounded like a stampede happened The door opened It was Apple jack and flutershy "What was that!?" Apple jack questioned Twilight fainted I ran over to her body I gave her a poke She woke up instantly She shuddered and then asked "What are you?" I myself don't know anymore
