I was just an ordinary person like anyone else, until everything changed on my birthday when I turned the age of 18.
*** *** *** *** ***
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Everybody said. "Thank you, everyone." I replied. Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce myself. I might as well say that my name is Axel Equinox, the one and the only, but for now, let's get back to the story.
"Blow out the candles Axel" said my Mom. "Ok, I will" I said. Man what I wished for quite stupid. I was a brony too so I wished for something I never thought I would wish for.....A portal, but I never took the "Be careful what you wish" for thing seriously until now.
"I wish for a portal so I could start my journey somewhere far" I mumbled. The next thing I know is I'm being sucked in to a portal and my mom and dad scream for me and everyone shouts for help but nothing could help me, for I was now in a portal to my own destination.
"Destination and time" said an unfamiliar voice. It was a female voice but it sounded more robotic. "Huh?" I questioned. What else could there be over here? Yet I saw nothing.
"Destination and time, please." It said again. This time, I could hear a bit of irritation in the voice so I decided where I would go.
"Destination: Equestria, Time: August, 17, 2012" I told the voice.
"Thank you for your cooperation. Commencing memory eraser" said the voice.
"Wait, what?!" I screamed.
And off I was whirling around, but now I couldn't recall anything but my name and Birth date and some other common knowledge. But then, "BANG" I hit my head with concrete... wait concrete? With that bang on my head, I instantly fell unconscious for ten minutes, but when I woke up, I was surrounded by multi-colored ponies. The other weird thing other than being transported into this world was that they had expressions of disgust and horror which I didn't know ponies could have.
Once they knew I woke up though they all screamed in horror and kept saying "Monster!" They cowered back in fear. Trying to talk to one was really hard, especially to the male looking ones, because if I came to close they would try to throw a punch at me, which was very rude.
I also tried going into buildings but they would kick me out. Until I entered this carousel looking building and the pony there just froze in horror. I thought maybe I could help her regain her consciousness and maybe explain that I was starting to get heart-broken inside that everyone calls me monster, so I thought maybe I would act like one if this one didn't give me a chance to speak.
So I looked for the nearest sink and cup. I filled the cup with ice cold water and splashed it on the ponies face. This had an instantaneous effect. She let out a high pitched scream of horror. I decided it was time to calm her down.
"Um... excuse me miss but... Where am I?" I said. She kept on screaming so I decided to splash the rest of the water on her. What she said, I didn't expect. "That was very rude of you" She said in an elegant voice.
"Ok, now that I've got your attention, may I ask you, where in the world am I??" I said very irritated.
"Well, you are in the wonderful land of Equestria and in the fabulous town of Ponyville." she said.
"Wait, so I'm not on earth, or in the state of Indiana?" I asked.
"Excuse me but, what's Earth and what's Indiana?" she asked.
"Oh boy, I'm a long way from home. Great, just great. I'm homeless now. Can I at least get your name?" I asked.
"Very well. My name is Rarity Belle. And what might your name be?" she asked.
"Oh umm, my name is Axel Equinox and it is a pleasure to meet you." I said.
"As I heard you mumbling, you said that you don't have a home. You are welcome to stay here if you want." she said.
"No"
"Beg your pardon?" she said
"I said NO!" I exclaimed.
"Why ever not?" she said.
"Because everyone here treats me like a monster, and I don't want you to have a 'monster' in your house. I'd rather go in a forest and kill myself so no one has to worry about me" I yelled. then I ran out the door and looked for the nearest forest and the ponies around me screamed in horror again. I found the forest which is about a miles walk, so I should probably run. But when I was going to run, I heard a shout from Rarity.
"Please! Don't go in that forest! You'll die if you go in there!" rarity cried.
"Well, I'd rather die than be here!" I shouted.
then off I went in to the forest. I ran for at least ten minutes before I got to the edge of the forest. When I was there, I saw a house with a lot of animals and then I saw a yellow pony with a pink mane. I decided to also ask her some questions.
"Um, hello uh, miss" I said. But as soon as she heard she turned around to see who it was, but when she saw me she ran away into her house. I went over to knock on her door and when I knocked, all she said was "Please go away!" I said nothing for a brief moment.
"Fine. Thank you for even looking at me before just running away and not screaming. If you excuse me I'm going to die in that forest." I said. As I was walking, I saw a quick flash of yellow and pink and there she was, standing in front of me.
"Please don't go into the Everfree Forest and kill yourself!" She said. She stared at me weird and I felt compelled to listen to her, but then my instincts told me not to.
"Why shouldn't I?" I questioned.
"Because... um... just please don't go." she said.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"My name.. my name is Fluttershy. What's yours?" Fluttershy asked.
"My name is Axel Equinox. Sorry but I'm still going in that forest to kill myself, so may I make one request?" I asked.
"Um, ok. What is it?" Fluttershy asked.
"Well, it's quite embarrassing to ask, but you look awfully cute. May I hug you?" I blushed slightly asking the question.
"Oh, um, ok." She agreed and blushed as well.
So I went over and hugged her for a minute. I cried a little for knowing that I couldn't remember my family, my home, or anything else and the hug comforted me a little. After the silent minute was over, I bid her farewell and went into the forest. I could also tell it was becoming night so I went along the road and found a clearing in the forest. It was still dark even in the clearing. I found a log to rest my head on, but I cried to myself knowing I would kill myself in a couple of minutes, but I drowned in sleep and took a nap. All I dreamed about was how horrible it was today and all the screams of how I was a monster.
All the horrified faces, because they think I'm a monster. I saw this weird pony in the background, almost as black as night. It had a moon as a necklace. I woke up after seeing her. I tried to look for a suicide weapon. I found a knife in my pocket for some reason, but I didn't need to ask because I was going to kill myself. I lifted up the knife to my throat, and as soon as I was going to slit my neck, I felt a hoof slap it out of my hand. The knife flew over to my arm and stabbed it. I was starting to get woozy from all the blood loss and then I saw her, the pony from my dreams. All I said to her was
"Please, just kill me. I want to die. This world doesn't accept me here." All she did was shake her head and put me on her back while I blacked out. I didn't know if I was dead or not, but all the darkness seemed to invite me to a better place.
