portal to dreams

saviour

Man, I'll say that life in Equestria really has been horrid for me. Being stabbed was just the beginning. I was going to be in more trouble than I thought, but for now let’s continue the story.

*** *** *** *** ***

*groan* Man that really took it all. Being stabbed is exhausting. Too much pain in my arm. Looks like I'm in any average hospital hooked up to a heart monitor. Oh, hey look a visitor. Wait.... what? I have a visitor? I've never made friends with anyone here. Maybe I'm in earth again? Oh that would be bliss. But this looks like... her! Now I remember, she saved me from killing myself. I still want to kill my self, but she saved me she's.... My savior.

"Um... Hi" I said sheepishly.

"Hello" she replied.

"May I ask for your name?" I asked.

"My name is Princess Luna, may I ask for yours?" Luna said.

"My name is Axel Equinox. How long was I out princess?" I asked.

"Well, you were unconscious for 1 week and even with that, I came to visit you everyday." Luna said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because you are like me. I was rejected until 6 special ponies saved me." Luna said.

"No, why did save me? I wanted to die!" I exclaimed while holding back tears.

"Because even if you are rejected by everyone, it doesn't mean you have to die. Just ignore them." Luna said.

"But,*hic*I have,*hic*no memories of my family*sniff*. I have no memories of anyone or anything. I'm *sniff* alone here. I might as well not live but you saved me. You’re my savior. I owe my life to you.*hic* I have no life anyway. Anything you want is my command."

Then I really started crying. Saying all that I know of knowing no one. Once Luna saw me crying, she went up to me and started to hug me and comfort me. I felt so lonely, I was just a hollow shell of my old self. I need someone or something to be my old self again.

"May I ask you something, Princess?” I sniffled

"Yes” Luna said comfortingly.

"I want to be your assistant, or have a job that involves something with you.” I exclaimed

"What?” she asked

"I have no one, you saved me. You’re pretty much the only one who matters to me. Please, just please.” I begged.

She hesitated on that question but she agreed. I would be her assistant until I could regain my stance in the world.

"One last thing. How long until I get out of this hospital, Princess?" I asked.

"About one week, especially with our quick healing medicine."

"Thank you, Princess. You don't have to keep visiting me if you don't want to, but thank you for even watching over me." I said

"No, I am going to watch over you, but my sister is going to come here later in the morning so don't be surprised, bye." she said

"Bye and thank you”. I said

The next 2 hours were a bore. Nothing happened. There happened to be a TV in the corner, but really since I’ve never seen any of the episodes before, I had no idea what it was about. Let me tell you, being in the hospital is really boring. Especially if you have nothing to do. The only thing I tried doing is try to remember by asking questions.

1) How did you get here? : You don't know

2) Your family? : Don't know

3) Anything involving my past life? : Nada

As I struggle, something flashes before my eyes. All I can see is a vortex, and I can hear a voice saying "Destination and time" in a womanly robotic voice. Man, that's enough remembering for the day. Didn't even know what that vision was about but it looked like a ...portal? But before I could think more about it, a tall pony with fur which was white and had a glittery faded rainbow mane walked in.

"Hello." she said. I could guess that this was Luna's sister.

"Hello Princess," I said, "What did you want to talk to me about?”

*** *** *** *** ***

What I didn't know was that the questions may as well change my life for better...OR WORSE?
