I walked out the front door remembering the promise I made to myself three years ago, that I will find them no matter what it takes. I looked around to see if anything happened while I was asleep but found nothing out of the ordinary.
“Now if I am going to get the answers, I need to find this Flame Warrior pony, only he can give me the answers to my questions.” I said to myself with confidence but was stupid not to check where I was stepping which was a broken wood plank.
I suddenly felt weightless as I fell toward the darkness beneath me and I saw the light above fade away until it was consumed by darkness.
“LAST TIME I CHECKED, I DIDN’T HAVE A HOLE UNDERNEATH THE PORCH!!!” I yelled as I fell into the unknown.
I suddenly hit a slope that slid me downwards and onto solid ground but not without the pain of course because hey what fun is something without a little bit of pain huh.
I rolled when I hit the flat surface and hit my head on a rock or something before coming to a stop. I groaned loudly and put my hoof on my head since it was spinning and making me see cupcakes with arms and legs dancing the hokey pokey.
I sat up very carefully and looked around which was nothing much except for the occasional rocks that sprouted out of the ground but it suddenly occurred to me that I shouldn’t be able to see anything down here which means there must be-BOOM!!!
I was pulled out of my thoughts by the large explosion that happened in front of me, I got up and walk steadily towards the noise but then stopped abruptly when I heard hoofsteps running in my direction and it was coming straight towards me also the last I felt a heavy object slammed into my head and I was knocked unconscious.
I woke up to find myself strapped to a chair and two needles sticking in each of my legs, my legs were bound in an eagle-like position and was in a laboratory of some sort because of the books, potions and the surgery tools that were on the table beside me.
I tried to move but the bonds held me tight so I tried the most dumbest thing ever.
“Hello!?” I shouted while I was still trying to release myself but a laughing voice send a cold feeling through my spine.
“So you finally wake up, my subject.” the voice said in a deep and raspy voice
“I AM NOT YOUR SUBJECT, LET ME GO!!” I yelled at the mysterious voice
“I’m afraid I cannot do that because you are not just any subject but my test subject.” the voice responded.
This got me worried because if I am a test subject then that means he will experiment on me with something.
“Now onto the experiment.” the voice happily said
Before I could respond a clamp shot out of the table I was laying on and locked my mouth completely, I tried to yell but I couldn’t move a muscle in my mouth at all.
“It’s a shame how hard you try but-” the voice said but stopped as he stepped out of the shadows to reveal a figure so terrifying that I automatically knew that I was not going to be released anytime sooner.
The figure was heavily muscular and stood on two legs that had feet the size of a wagon’s wheel and arms as thick as tree trunks but the terrifying thing is that his body was like a walking skeleton but his flesh and skin was green and it steamed with ooze but then it dawned to me that the green ooze is acid. His face was extremely ugly but scary at the same time because of metal-looking crest on his head and the long rows of jagged metal teeth which could be hundreds if I had to take a guess.
The monster put his acidic hand next to my head and said, “you will never prevail.” he finished his sentence.
He turned to the pouch of liquid that connected to the needles stuck in my legs and chanted something but whatever it was, it made the strange liquid start to flow through the tube and into my body through the needle.
The pain was nothing I ever felt before causing to squirmed and bucker in my prisoned state but it did no good at all as I could feel the substance changing me and hurting me at the same time.
The monster towered over me with a crooked smile and started to speak, “The substance that I am putting into you is Uranium Requiem which allows an organisms true potential to be discovered but my last test subject’s potential was not great enough to satisfy the next step of my experiment but alas nobody has ever made it that far and it seems to me that you will join them in the afterlife as well.”
I tried to free myself but it wasn’t doing any good.
The monster smiled at my attempts to break free and said, “Since your not going to be alive any longer, I suppose I should tell you my name, the name is Quetzo.” before walking out of the lab and shutting the door and it made a clicking noise.
I was finding it harder to breathe with every breath I took and my movements start to get sluggish and woozy. I could feel the substance coursing through my body as more of the Uranium stuff spread in my body and flowed through my veins and into my heart. I was shaking uncontrollably but I managed to get a glimpse at the pouch that held the Uranium thing but was surprised to find that it was finished. I was losing my mind and was about to give up but all of a sudden the pain stopped and I was left sweating and panting heavily.
“That has got to be the worst thing I ever felt.” I said but then my eyes widened because I was talking.
I placed my hoof against my mouth but I heard a loud SNAP!!! and looked to where the noise came from and realised that I broke the strap that held my foreleg… with just a little pull. I stared at my hoof with wonder and looked to my left leg and pulled it, the outcome was remarkable, it snapped the strap in half like it was jello.
I freed myself and stumbled into a mirror in which I gasped at my reflection because I was the same except my legs and chest which was muscular and lean. I felt stronger, faster and more aware of my surroundings but the weird thing was that I felt very healthy.
I looked toward the door Quetzo escaped through and it made me very angry when I thought about his name and ran towards it but came to a stop when I looked to my left. There was a tunnel that led to a door that basked in the ghostly light, I looked at the door and then the front door and then let my curiosity get the best of me. I ran towards the door on the left and reached it in less than three seconds. Little did I know, everything was going to change as soon as I step through that door.
