Chapter6: Running Out Of Time.
--------------------------------------
Tap tap, tap tap. LightBolt stands still with Twilight. After a minuet of waiting, they hear foot steps walking away from the door. LightBolt let's go of Twilight, "I'm sorry, but this thing has been following me and i'v been running around Ponyvil to find you." he tells her as he sits down, "Who was that?" Twilight ask as she sits looking at LightBolt. "I don't know. I hope you knew or can find out what it is." he say as he looks at the door in fear. "Well do you at lease know what it looks like?" Twilight ask heading to get books. LightBolt took a minuet to remember when he was running in the forest.
"It was vary tall. It's arms and legs where abnormally long for its height. It was also more humanoid then anything." LightBolt tells Twilight shaking a little, "Did you get to see it's face?" she ask looking for a book that will help. "That's it! It didn't have one!" he tells Twilight in a loud tone. She looks at him, "Then how did it know where to go or how to follow you?" she ask looking at him confused. "I don't know! I just want to be back with Daisy!" LightBolt starts to brake down in front of Twilight. She just takes a few steps back, "Calm down LightBolt." she say as he looks up at Twilight. For a moment, Twilight's eyes matches Daisy.
LightBolt stands up and wipe his face and shake his head. "I'm sorry you had to see that... I'v been going though a lot..." say as standing up, "Maybe you show get some sleep then, I'll keep a barrier up so we will be safe. He looks into her eyes and tells her in a soft voice, "Thank you..." she smiles and tells him, "Their is a shower upstairs and clean towels on the shelf inside. You can sleep the guest bed. I'll be up and try to find out what this is." she tells him.
"Thank you." LightBolt replies to Twilight and heads upstairs. After taking a soothing shower and dry off, LightBolt walks to the guest bed. He places his bag on the ground next to the bed. He pulls out his journal and starts to write.

What does this thing want from me... Why is it going after me... How can I get away from it... When will it go away... Where do I have to go for it to stop... I made it to Ponyvil and I went to go see a mare named Twilight sparkle. a little dragon told me that I just missed her, then I ask where I can get something to eat. He sent me to a place called the 'Sugar Cube Corner' I was about to eat, but the mare their said she knew everypony in Ponyvil. I asked where Twilight was, she sent me to another mare that was vary timed. I felt bad for yelling at her, but it felt like the thing was getting closer as I was talking.
I finality found the mare i was looking for. When I got here, their was tapping at the door... I could tell that... It... was their... It wanted to see if I was stupid enough to answer the door, I didn't... I broke down in front of the mare Twilight. I felt bad for it, because some random pony came into her house and started to freak out, but I just want this thing to go away. When Twilight stopped my freak out, I looked into her eyes. At that moment I saw Daisy... I miss her so much and I promise that i'll return. That is what i'm going to do to. I should get some sleep... Sigh out.

LightBolt closes his journal and places his quill on the cover. He rest the journal he has been writing in for a few days, feels as if he was writing in it for years. LightBolt slides into the guest bed and slowly calms his mind to fall sleep. His calm mind grants him a restful sleep, but suddenly LightBolt wakes up the the sound of tapping. He jumps out of bed and yells, "Go Away!" standing up he hears Twilight run upstairs. "LightBolt! Are you okay?!" she ask opening the door. LightBolt looks at her shaking, "It's near again... It was tapping on something..." he say as he looks at her.
She walks to him, "I'm sorry. That was me. I can't find anything about what you described to me and I was thinking so hard that I started to tap my quill." she tells him as she walks to him, "But I think that your mind is playing tricks on you." she adds looking into his eyes. He looks back into her eyes, but he knows that this is not a trick of the mind. The things he has been feeling are to real to be any sort of a trick.
"Is their somepony else that can help?" LightBolt ask as he tries to calm down. "Well..." Twilight replied, "Their is somepony that can help, but she lives in the EverFree forest." she finish looking to see a reaction. LightBolt just looks down, 'No... I can't go back in that forest... If I go back, it will have me for sure..... But if its my last chance to shake this thing off of me.' he tells himself in his mind. "Fine... Where does she live." LightBolt ask clam. Twilight sparkle tells him, "I'll give you a map to where she lives in the morning, so you can see. But you need to rest up. Your pretty shaken up." she ends as walking out of the room. "Sleep well. Your safe in my house." she slowly closed the door behind her.
LightBolt grabs his journal before going back to bed and writes.

I feel that i'm running out of time. Each hour that passes that... It... Gets closer and closer... I try to brush the feeling of it getting closer more and more, but it just gets harder and harder to ignore then feeling... I can feel it's faceless stare looking at me more and more... I can't just shake it off.
Well i'm going to head out back to the EverFree forest to find one of Twilight's friends to help me with this... Thing... I just need this to end as fast as I can so I don't have to live in fear of something just waiting for me to drop my guard. I won't let it get me, i'll rather die then go down by that thing... Sign out.

LightBolt holds his journal and falls sleep, 'I'll return to you Daisy and tell you how much I love you.' he tells himself in his mind before fading into a restful sleep...
