//------------------------------// // (X) Twilight's Second Nightmare // Story: Dark Alternative: My Little Slave Extras // by Red Bomber //------------------------------// A/N: I was thinking of doing something else in this third deleted scene, but I guess I'll just use this one to show one of the nightmares I would have given Twilight during the third chapter. The reason I didn't do it is because I felt that there would be too many nightmares in this fic. Not to mention, this nightmare is also one of the transformation ones where Twilight turns back to her pony form from her original human form. So this time the time the fic is back to being normal, dark and scary. Nothing funny is happening here and also I'll be writing this one normally instead of in a "Play style" like I did in the last deleted scene. __________________________ Today is a perfect day for the young woman with the stange colored purple hair with a pink stripe near the middle line of it, even though having oddly colored hair is not really that strange in this world, it's actally just uncommon. Here in this world people with different hair color tend to stand out more among the normal crowd, but not by that much as the ratio is more or less 2 different hair colored people to every 10 people in a group. The young woman with the purple hair just finished brushing it to get ready for the trip today and with the weather being a clear blue sky with fair temperature, the trip to her unspecified destination will be even more pleasant. As she was going across the hallway she heard her mom called out for breakfast for the rest of the family. It was perfect timing for the young woman since she was going over to the kitchen to see if breakfast is ready anyway. She closes her eyes as she smells the bacon and eggs to get ready for another wonderful meal with her family. But when she opens her eyes she didn't see her family sitting on the table waiting for her, she saw a bunch of oddly colored, yet cartoonish looking, horses sitting in the seats where her family should have been in. Upon closer inspection she realized that they're not just cartoon horses, they're cartoon unicorns. The unicorns looked at the woman with equal concern on their faces after hearing her gasp as she takes in detail of each of the 3 unicorns. In her brother's seat sat a white unicorn with a mane and tail that has swirling blue stripes of different shades. The white fur of the coat ends in each of the unicorn's legs which are shown to be blue-like hooves. The strangest thing about this white unicorn is its eyes as while it does have the same blue pupils as her real brother which makes it uncanny for the woman, it's that the white part of its eyes are also in a shade of blue as well. In her father's seat, sat a yellow-eye blue unicorn with a darker shade of blue mane and tail. Unlike the white unicorn, this unicorn is completely blue even in its legs, making it hard to tell if it really has hooves or not. In her mother's seat sat another white unicorn with a purple tinge on it's fur with a mane and tail that has multiple stripes of light purple and white. This unicorn's head is shaped differently from the other two unicorn since while the other unicorns' heads are more or less like regular horses, this particular unicorn has a more round shape for a head and is strangely more human like. Also this white unicorn's eyes are different from the other two as well since it has a defining eyelashes which makes it easier to tell that this unicorn is a girl compared to the other two. "Twilight, honey, are you okay?" The girl unicorn spoke with a concern voice of her mother's that send chills down the young woman's spine. She briefly wonders why the girl unicorn has her mother's voice before it speaks again while staring at her with worry in her large eyes, "Twilight?" The woman looks behind her to see this 'Twilight' the unicorn was refferring to only to see nothing but an empty three way hallway. She then looks back at the unicorn group and slowly points to herself in which the dark blue responds with her father's voice, "Yes Twilight, your mother is speaking to you." The woman's pupils shrink in shock, did that unicorn seriously refered to the other one as HER mother? Granted she has her voice, and that other unicorn had her father's voice, but that doesn't mean she's really this creature's daughter. "I-I'm sorry, I think you have me confuse with someone else." The woman said as she takes a step back away from this strange family of unicorns. The white male unicorn shook his head, "Uh Twi, this isn't funny. Enough with the jokes already." He said with her big brother's voice. The woman shook her head furiously, "I'm not the one who's joking, you three are! Who are you and why do you have my family's voices?" "Twilight," the girl unicorn starts as she gets off the chair while looking at the woman with concern, "we are your family." The other two unicorns follows her example and gets off the chairs too. The woman chuckles nervously, "Heh heh. T-that's a good one, if you're really mother than why am I looking down at you?" She half-joked as she remembers that her mother is the tallest one out of everyone else in her family. The girl unicorn shook her head and tries to put on a comforting face as she walks towards to her, "Oh Twilight, you know that you've outgrown your mother over the years as we've gotten older. It's relatively normal for a pony of your age." The girl unicorn stops in her advance towards the woman when she took another step away from her after she got too close. "Pony of my age?" The woman repeated in confusion. "Is that what you guys are?" "It's what we all are Twilight," The dark blue unicorn said as he steps closer to his wife, "We are nice normal ponies and a nice normal home." "No, you're wrong!" The woman yelled at the ponies after she swung her arm across from her and not noticing something was coming out between her shirt and pants behind her, "I am not a pony, I am a human being!" "A human being?!" The white male unicorn said in confusion, "Twilight, what's going on with you?!" "And another thing, my name's not Twilight!" The woman continues to yells and takes one step further back. "Then what is it?" The human woman was about to answer but then all of a sudden she couldn't think of a name other than Twilight Sparkle She doesn't completely understand but she knows that those two words are not her real name and they feel very wrong. The woman clutches her head in frustration and fear trying to do everything she can to get her name back. Unbeknownst, to her, there was something swaying behind her legs until feet got caught up with it, causing her to trip and fall down. She closese her eyes before she hit the ground, but the strange thing was that her fall seem to last a couple of seconds longer than one. The human woman tries to rub her butt to soothe the pain she felt for falling down like this until she notices something wrong with her body. Her legs don't feel so straight anymore and her knees feel closer to the ground. She also notices that she can no longer feel her fingers in both of her arms. The woman then slowly opens her eyes only to find that her legs are now purple pony like legs. She snaps her eyes open in this revelation and quickly looks behind her to find a swaing puple with pink stripe tail that is strangely consisted with her hair style. She turns back around to put her hands in front of her face to find them to be in the shape of the same strange pony hooves. "Your name is Twilight Sparkle," her father's voice said stopping the former-human woman's increasing panic attack for the moment as the three unicorns approach her, "and you're a unicorn pony just like us." Slowly but surely the former-human named 'Twilight Sparkle' looks in the hallway mirror to the left and notices a purple unicorn pony that is almost identical to the white female unicorn except the purple one has her hairstyle. "No... I'm not. I'm, human" 'Twilight' said in a whisper. "No, Twilight," The unicorn with her mother's voice starts as she gets closer to the former human with sadness sneaking into her voice, "you're an intelligent unicorn mare who has a delicate purple fur and a beautiful mane tha-" "NO I'M NOT A PONY OR WHATEVER I'M A HUMAN BEING!!!" 'Twilight Sparkle' shouted in the sky before dropping into the ground and covering her head and ears with her forelegs. Then she starts to hear 'her family's' voices calling her by her wrong name over and over, trying their best to comfort her and trying to convince her she's one of them to snap her out of her slump. Soon the voices somehow stop sounding muffled by her closed ears and started to sound much more clearer. "No, stop." 'Twilight' begged "I'm not like you, stop it. Please..." *~~~~~~* "STOP IIIIIIITTT!!!" Twilight Sparkle screams at the top of her lungs as she sprangs from her bed and clutching the sheets as hard as she could with her hooves. She snaps her eyes open from the nightmare to find herself back in Ken's guest room in the middle of the day with some of the blinds letting a little bit of sunlight shine onto the floor. After taking a few breaths, Twilight looks at her fore hooves in worrying curioustiy and shortly thinks that if she had fingers she would squeeze them tight in her hands in fear. Although she found out a curious thing about her body that ponies actually sweat on through their fur, which serves to help remind her that she's been turned into a cartoon charcter to please sickos. Thinking of her fur, Twilight remembers the nightmare -or was it daymare considering that she just slept in the morning instead of night- she had and starts thinking about her parents and her brother. She briefly wonders if there is no cure for her ponified state, would her family accept her as the talking cartoon pony as she is or would they reject her? Twilight quietly half chuckles at herself at the irony that the morbid nightmare helped her remember what her family was like but at the same time reminding her that she's a pony with trauma based memory loss. She wonders if that what Ken meant that her memory will slowly come back to her now that she realizes she can do magic. However she still prefers to having better control of her magic so she can use it to get her memories back all at once instead of waiting for it to come back naturally. Since she still believes if Twilight lost her memory, or actually locked her memory with magic then using magic again will help her get it back sooner. That way she'll no longer have to worry about nightmares like this. Twilight hops off the bed and lands on her four hooves before she looks at the time on the electric clock. It's about a quarter before 2:00PM, which means Ken might be coming back soon or is he already here? Twilight tries to listen with her ears after poking her head out of the door to hear nothing in the house. That means Twilight should have enough time to properly prepare herself for the magic training that Ken promised to help her with. It might take a long time to get better control of her magic, but hopefully one day Twilight will be able to use it to get her memory back, as well as using this newfound power to help everyone who else who has been turned into ponies and held captive by "The Barn." With a sigh, Twilight leaves her room to go take a short shower and maybe watch some TV before Ken gets back; but not before she makes up her bed using her magic. ______________________________________ A/N: So ends this serious part of the deleted scene. Though I really hate the fact that I had to suffer some brain farts in some of the dialogue parts of the nightmare. I also like to apologize for using "The woman" to refer to human Twilight in the nightmare sequence, but I was not sure how are supposed to refer to someone who is supposedly a stranger and has no real name without addressing her features or pointing she was the only human in the sequnce before being forced to 'pop' back into being in her pony form. I know there are some or maybe alot of gammar mistakes here and there, but I feel like now that I'm completely done and I want to be a lazy writer at the moment, I'll submit this story right now and maybe fix this sometime later when I'm working on the real parts of Chapter 3. I hope you enjoyed this deleted nightmare sequence a bit.
