//------------------------------// // The Good, The Bad, The Lyra // Story: A Mothers Love // by BadgerBrony900 //------------------------------// "No Lyra... I wouldn't even think of it." I say looking around me, getting a clear view of the expressions plastered on every ponies face. "Well why not?" she asked her face turning red. "Well... I'm a human and you're a pony." I simply answered. "That is the only reason you have?" Turning the other way followed by an Ooh from the crowd. "One, What if I happen to find a way home? I most likely wont be able to come back and I have a family back on my planet." I sighed before I continued. "Two, A pony and a human? How would than even work?" I asked and Lyra turned around. "Okay..... But I bet I can find a way to turn you into a pony!" she said practically begging. "Back to my first statement, what if I find a way home, will you be able to turn me back?" I looked to her and she gave me a shrug and a sigh. "Three, I am attracted to human females, not ponies." I said knowing she would take it the wrong way. "Are you calling me....Ugly?" she said almost about to cry. She slowly got up from the chair sniffling as she walked towards the door. "I-I guess, I-i-ill go h-h-home..." was all she got out before she ran out crying. "Nice one" came a voice from the crowd. "Yah, whats wrong with a pony?" said another voice as ponies started to gather up and rant against me. "Well I um, I guess, I don't know." I said with a sigh not wanting to explain my point a view to these angry ponies. "Okay every pony, thats enough." Twilight appearing out of no where, shoving everyone out the door before they could mutter a word. After the last pony was through the door and a library cleared of everything but garbage, books, furniture, a human, and one Twilight Sparkle. "Thanks Twilight." Taking noticed the library resumed original size. I will never figure out how the library stretched to fit the size of the party and then change back so fast. "Just go to the guest room." Twilight said interrupting my train of thought. She didn't seem happy and I wouldn't want to anger any further, would I? "Okay Sparkles." was all I let out before I quickly walked into my room and shut the door. "That party didn't go as expected." I said to myself as I slipped under the covers. "Nighty night." I whispered to myself, drifting off to sleep not too long after. _______________________________________________________________________________ As I open my eyes once again, I am standing on a stone path as most of my view is covered by fog. I turn around but all that appeared to be behind me was an endless fall into eternity. I turn toward the original path and with a shrug of my shoulders I walk into the fog. The path was endless, what felt like hours of walking let me feel like I made no progress at all... Maybe even walking in circles. "Where am I?" I say aloud to no one in particular. "We're in our mind, do you not remember falling asleep?" The voice came from all around the fog "Our mind?" I asked the fog. I look around for a bit before my ears pick the sounds of hoof steps getting louder. I look around slightly disoriented just hearing foot steps before they stop right behind me. "Yes our mind." said a voice not to different from mine. I turned around to see a pony, a pegasus. Brown hair, teal eyes, grey coat, and the most gentle look upon his face. "But, you're a pony." Was all I could manage. "Well, right now I'm a figment of your imagination. Created slowly as your memory slowly unlocks itself from being in Equestria." The Pony said. "So, I was born a pony?" I asked the pony while observing every feature of him. "Indeed, I believe when we were transported to so called Earth, are memories were locked of all things involving Equestria." He started to observe me also. "But I do believe that you can only access the Equestrian memories in your dream state is, Well.... Your memories are unlocking them selves, but your mind hasn't come to accept that." The memory pony said as he stood beside me. "So basically, I'm crazy?" I asked the pony while I continue walking. "And how come I can only see memories now?" I asked turning my head to the pony. "Well, no you aren't crazy yet, but if the memories keep unlocking them selves and your mind keeps trying to block them, eventually you will become crazy. To answer your second question, its because you're in a dream state. While dreaming you enter the deep thoughts of the mind of what the user truly desires but can't possess." Answered the memory pony as if these were everyday questions. "Well, Ive always wanted to find my true parents... So is it possible for me not to become crazy?" I completely stopped and turned to him with a serious look. "We, have always wanted to find OUR true parents." He said correcting me, then continued. "You need to find some sort of trigger, something in Equestria that lets you know that lets your mind come to peace." he said as the stone path slowly crumbled at my feet. "Well it appears you're waking up." He gave me a short wave as I avoided the falling tiles. "But I didn't even get to see the memory!" I yelled as I missed a step and started falling down. "Til next time!" He called down the hole as everything faded to black. _______________________________________________________________________________ The sun beams shining on my eyes alarming me that morning has arrived. I tried going back to sleep but it just kept getting brighter and brighter til I gave up and just got out of bed. I sighed memories of dream and last nights party sitting in my mind. Twilight and a lot of other ponies were not going to be happy with me. I will am most likely going to have to clean up the mess. I sighed accepting fate I walked to the bed room door and opened it. Everything was in shape, everything in place as it was before the party. I looked around for a bit before I saw a green dragon engaging me in a staring contest. I blinked first.
