Chapter 1 – Maybe all...
Your eyes are closed as you take in the warm day's grassy smelling air from the open window only feet from your bed. Your calmed breath that exits your nostrils are in contrast with the last few days you have taken in...
Plus last night did not bring any of the much needed rest you desire. No...most of last night you stayed up staring at the ceiling above you; just trying not to make the already strange few days any more complicated by brushing up against the pony you sleep with.
With another exhale you try to bring any kind of rest back to you, but the idea does not last long as your mind thinks over the lavender mare you have laid next to since you came here. The truth is that you don't mind laying next to her it feels strangely right...but your conscious mind hold you from acting on the feelings because of the lack of memory of her....it just feels too weird to get close to some mare you can’t remember.
You push your thought of the mare back as you think about the hectic last few days of nothing but forced ways of trying to get you to remember have left you with no time to just really think about anything you have been told.
Your mind is not the only thing that plays against your sleep as you feel the morning sun getting its bead on your still shut eyes. You roll over with a groan as you try to ignore the sun and bring yourself back to the idea of rest.
...The sleep you desire finally starts to creep its way in, but not without a reminder from the day before yesterday...
"...I don't understand Princess, what do you mean the spell worked?" Twilight's voice rings in your dream as you continue to let it play out too tired to wake up.
You picture the tall white mare and her blue green pink hair perfectly as her voice rings, "...The spell was to bind Chrysalis inside of him until she could be destroyed."
You feel a smirk come over your face as you move your head on the pillow, ya nothing more than a prison cell to hold in some...thing...
"...Because the spell was broken when Chrysalis was vanquished all memories of his past life where locked. This way Chrysalis could not bring herself back like she did before using human memory to generate magic..."
You hang on Celestia's words as your mind plays with them for a moment, Human? Past life? You give a forced yawn trying to forget those words...but you're not able to break free of them as your mind works them, if i'm not a pony...what am I?
The vivid dream continues to play in your not so sleepy mind, and you follow along still not wanting to move from the warm bed that is now heated by the sun from outside.
Twilight's voice is shaky and faded as you listen, "...Will he ever be able to remember?"
You can still feel her concerning purple eyed gaze on you, almost with the same confusion and hope she had the day you hear all of this.
Your breathing softens as you let the rest of the shady dream play out with Celestia's stern sounding words, "...His memories about his past life may never come back..." You remember her wise pink like eyes turn to you at this moment as she continued directed towards you, "...But memories are just feelings, and if your feelings about anything are strong enough...then you will remember it...it may be instant or you might not even know you have them back..."
You groan a little as you bring your hooves up to your eyes and begin to rub, ya...might not even know you got them back? Pff, wise princess Celestia you helped so much. Ok lets go over what I know so far, I am a super pony-human thing, librarian dating or married to a super unicorn that is being taught about friendship and magic by the princess of all the land of the... Sound about right.
As your hooves leave your eyes you open and blink them at the purple mass in front of you, "Hi Twilight?" You stare at the pony who only stands maybe a foot from your face.
"Oh good you're up." She gives a happy smile as she continues, "Ok, so today I thought we could try to-..."
You roll your eyes as you turn your body from her sight, really more dumb food tasting or walking around looking at hay covered buildings...like it helps.
She clears her throat as she talks, "Celestia and the book said its best to just keep trying."
"Ha, I would rather sleep." You pull the warm covers a little bit more up around your head as the words exit your mouth.
You hear Twilight sigh as the sound of her hooves start to shift away from your bedside, "Ok, we'll be down stairs when you're ready."
You can close your eyes as your mind focus on her exiting hooves, "Alright Twilight...what is it today?"
Twilights hooves stop as her voice replaces it, "Well I thought that we might try jogging some memories by just using your closest friends."
You turn back to her as you sit up in the bed and tap your hoof to your mouth, "Uh, didn't we try that already?"
She happily nods as she talks, "kind of, but we should make sure it doesn't work first."
Make sure it didn't work? You shake your head with a light chuckle as you think, because one time is not enough.
Twilight takes advantage of your silence as her horn glows purple, "Good." As her words leave her mouth the covers fly from your bed and a ruse of cold air smacks against your body
"Ah! Cold!"
Twilight gives a giggle as she folds the covers that float above you.
You give an annoyed moan as you slid yourself off of the bed. Well today is starting off great...
"I'll meet you downstairs to begin." She gives you a little smile as she sets the neatly folded covers back on the bed.
You watch as the covers lose the purple aura around them, "How about magic? When can I learn how to use that again?" You look back to Twilight as you wait for her response.
"Um..." She taps her hoof to her mouth as she thinks for a moment, "...Well, we should try to get your memories back before we work on that. Magic can be unpredictable when its not used properly."
You nod to her comment as you walk past her in thought, ya lets just put of the green glowing that randomly takes over my body.
"Twilight!"
Your ears pick up to the annoyed high pitch lady like squall from downstairs. Rarity? she's one of my closest friends?!
But you're brought back to motion as Twilight quickly darts down the stairs, "Coming."
You follow her pace as Rarity's girly squalls get a little louder. But you stop with a laugh as you notice the cause of her yell.
You walk into the room holding your smile to the scene in front of you. Rarity stand close to Violet trapped in the little fillies grasp by her hooves. Rainbow and Spike stand towards the table in the side of the room trying to hide there laughing from the flustered white unicorn.
Rarity's voice is a forced soft toned voice as she tugs on her long indigo mane, "Ok, Violet let go off Rarity's mane now, ha ha."
Violet smiles to the trapped mare being held in her tiny hoofed grasp. Rarity is being held at an awkward position by her mane, which is trapped in Violets clamped down hooves. With each tug from Rarity Violets playful smile gets wider.
Rainbow is unable to hold her laugh in as Twilight walks over to try and help her captured friend, “I told her not to put her mane close to her.” She gives another laugh as she looks over the filly, “...that little pony has the grip of ghastly gorge eel.”
Twilight talks in a baby like voice as she moves her hooves to Violet, "You just want to play don't you? -..."
Rarity burst out in another annoyed squeal as she holds her mane, trying to hold the playful tone like Twilight as she tugs on her mane still being held in Violets death clamp, "Well Rarity does not want to play, so...help my mane!"
You can't help but chuckle to her voice as you take your seat at the table that you have sat at for the last few days.
Twilight gives a giggle as she puts her front hooves around the smiling filly, "Ok, Violet let go."
"Ow, ow ow!" Rarity closes one eye as she tries to hold her mane back from being pulled any further.
As Twilight lifts Violet from the orange wood high chair the little filly's grip on Rarity's mane is lost. Violet wiggles her four legs happily as the mane is set flopping back to Rarity.
"Ah! My coiffure!" Rarity turns her tangled haired face to you as she hoofs to the split ends, "DO you have any idea how long it takes to get a curl like I have?!"
You smile as you shake your head, "I can't remember."
