//------------------------------// // Hotel Ponyfornia Part 2 // Story: Paranormal Ponies // by opuscon789 //------------------------------// As the train approached Appaloosa, our heros have been flying all night. It was 3:00 am. Twilight and Rainbow were now ghost because of their curse. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were still ghost because their bodies were gone. The train entered the station at Appaloosa. This was its final stop until they head off to Hotel Ponyfornia. The train was scheduled to stop for 15 minutes before heading off. The group stopped at the center of town. Nopony could notice them because they were ghost. Twilight and Rainbow sat down right next to each other. The Cutie Mark Crusaders sat right next to each other to talk for a small minute. “What if the spell was not meant to bring us back?” Sweetie Belle asked. “If it was true then everypony in my family would come to my funeral and Bab Seed would be crying,” Apple Bloom worried. “If it was true then the good part is that I could fly. But the bad part is that I don’t think that I can spend time with Rainbow Dash,” Scootaloo thought. “I think we can’t get our cutie marks as ghost,” Sweetie Belle thought. The three girls sighed in sadness and looked into the sky. The stars were shining brightly and glimmering in the night sky. It was beautiful to see the sky at this time of night. “You know what I wanted to do?” Scootaloo asked. “What was that?” Sweetie and Apple Bloom asked. “I wanted to go into the stars and fly high. The would be awesome!” she closed her eyes and imagined what it would be like. “Maybe we can get our cutie marks for traveling in space.” Sweetie Belle thought. “We'll, need to find a way up there first.” Apple Bloom pointed out. “Good point,” Scootaloo said. They heard the train blowing its horn. Rainbow got up, “Girls, it’s time to go,” Twilight yawned and flew into the air. “We are going to miss the train if we don’t get a move on.” Everypony else flew into the air and followed Twilight. The train left the station and headed south to the hotel. Hours passed as the train moved to the south. It was 4:00 in the morning. No pony was awake, except maybe some on the train and Princess Luna. Sunrise was not supposed to happen until 7:00 in the morning. The train was going at a normal speed until it started to speed up. Twilight started questioning why it was doing it. Everypony tried to keep up with the train. Then the train became too fast. Rainbow Dash grabbed everypony and flapped her wings as hard as possible. She became faster than the train. Twilight saw a rock with a bumper signaling the end of the tracks. “RAINBOW LOOK OUT!” Twilight closed her eyes. The train went through the bumper and the rock. It was like the train was a ghost itself. The group goes through the rock and then ends up somewhere else like they entered into another dimension. They were now in what appeared to be a shopping mall. There were shops everywhere, above them there were hotel rooms and it was like a dream come true. The train came to a halt at a station. Everypony that was on it came off. The group saw Fluttershy and Rarity get off. They both looked around the area and find a beautiful site. “This place is just gorgeous!” Rarity said as she observed the area. “I’m glad you like it.” Fluttershy said being nice. The two ponies went to the front desk of the hotel. The clerk was waiting for them. “Welcome to the Hotel Ponyfornia. Such a lovely place.” said the clerk “It sure is,” Rarity said happily. “There is plenty of room at the Hotel Ponyfornia. Any time of year, you can find it here,” The clerk looked at them. Rarity blushed. “Well... Ok, can I have these two rooms?” she asked. “Sure I will be happy to. Here is the key, follow this pony to your room,” The clerk pointed at the pony as he smiled at them. The pony guided both Rarity and Fluttershy to their room. They open the door and get a beautiful sight. “This room is so glamorous!” Rarity smiled. Fluttershy trotted slowly around the room. She enjoyed the site she was in. The room was unforgettable. “I think we better get some sleep.” Rarity yawned and layed down on her bed. Fluttershy on the other hand couldn’t sleep. She layed down on her bed and started hearing noises. She sat up. “Hello? Anypony there?” She looked around the room. There was nothing. But once she looked up, she saw an orb floating in front of her face. The orb started saying things. “Play with me, I’m alone, so alone, can you play with me?” Fluttershy yelled in fear. Then she found herself waking up. She breathe heavily. “That... was all... just a... dream,” She layed back down on her pillow and fell asleep. Meanwhile, Twilight, Rainbow, Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, and Scootaloo were searching thought the hotel. The sun was about to rise. Daytime was about to begin.They wanted to get a good idea of where the missing page was. “I wonder where that missing page could be?” Rainbow asked. “I don’t know but I have a feeling its in a place where its not noticeable.” Twilight explained. “I’m scared!” Sweetie Belle shivered in fear. “Me too,” Apple Bloom hugged her.   “phbt...” Scootaloo looked at them. Somepony grabbed them and pulled them into the closet. All of them screeched in fear. But all their mouths were covered. “Shhh...” said the unknown pony. “Get out of here as you still can!” “Why?” Twilight asked. “I’ve been here for 1000 years, I can’t die because this is my soul I am in. I’m stuck as this until the curse is lifted. Then I turned into a ghost. But now I’m a slave. If you don’t get out of here, you will be slaves of this hotel for an eternity. “Who are you,” The Cutie Mark Crusaders asked. “I will explain,” he looked down at the ground and sobbed.
