//------------------------------// // Waking up.. Again // Story: Its a beautiful day, and I cant see it. // by Budinsky //------------------------------// As I awoke once again I couldn't shake the feeling of knowing, the feeling that lingers in the back of your head and bugs you until you figure out that what escapes your memory. "Whoo boy, you better not black out on us again, y'hear" spoke a very western accent. " Ya , you had us worried silly billy pants" the obnoxious voice giggled. " Applejack, Pinkie pie, hush now, you'll scare the poor dear" a very regal voice exclaimed. Applejack, Pinkie pie, I knew those names but where. That's when I realized the very slim chance of me being in a perfect world had been in my favour. I was I Equestria. Of course how could I not realize, how could I not forget. How could I forget anything that happened that day, that was the day everything in my life changed. My perfect little world flipped upside down. My love of welding, my passion for the guitar, my simple care free life destroyed by a simple little mistake. The funniest part in this whole tragedy was that I remembered a show about horses for girls.'Huh must have left more of an impression than I thought' I debated with myself. But then the sadness sinked in, the sadness of my life being fucked over and then getting dumped in a strange world in habited by ponies that in my world was viewed by millions of people. It was funny in a way but the sadness overpowered the silliness. " Uhh dude? You okay" that sounded like Rainbow Dash. " No, no I'm not, I'm stuck in another world, in an unknown bed, and I cant see cause I'm blind" I exclaimed! Gasps shot through the air then making an uncomfortable silence. " Well sir I'm sorry to hear that but I guess introductions are due, I'm Twilight Sparkle. These are my friends Applejack". " Howdy". " My friend Rarity" " Why hello dear" " My friend Rainbow Dash" " Sup" " My friend Fluttershy" A small eep could be heard. " And my friend Pinkie Pie" "Ohmygosh, its so totally nice to meet you we should eat cupcakes sometime, or go play with hoop-de-loops". 'These ponies sure are impolite' I thought. " Uhh you know I cant see you right" I asked slightly annoyed. The tension suddenly felt like it could be cut with a knife. " Sorry about that Sir, but we couldn't help but wonder how you came about being blind" I instantly recognised the voice as Twilight Sparkle's, being blind for a couple of months can do that to you. " Call me Greg, Twilight, and ill tell you as long as you've got time". I then proceeded to tell them about who I was and who I came from, including how I was blinded and how I didn't know how I got here. Proceeding to my story was a long, uncomfortable silence. " Wow that's harsh, sorry to hear that" Rainbow spoke solemnly. " Indeed, but I do believe I can solve your sight problem" Twilight said. I froze thinking ' Did Twilight Sparkle, the element of Magic, just say she could fix my blindness'? I then began to speak but Twilight cut me off. " I can begin right away If you wish". I didn't know what to say, I was being offered the opportunity to have my sight enabled. I was at a loss for words, but instead of saying anything, I just nodded yes.
