October 1st
Mrs. Wilt woke all of us up and told us today we would be going outside before our testing. The guards came in and handcuffed my paws behind my back and then led me out of the asylum. I don't know how I lasted so long without a drop of sunlight, but now that I am outside, I really don't want to go back in. I don't mind that it's a little chilly, the autumn breeze is nice because the inside of the asylum is either A: boiling hot or B: freezing cold.
The backyard is roughly twice the size of the actual 'house'. We're out on he countryside, so there's hardly anypony here. Hardly anypony to hear us scream.
All the kids were led outside one by one, un-handcuffed and left to roam free in the field for an hour or two. Chrysi, Sombra and I all made our way to each other after a few minutes of wading through the tall grass and calling eachother's names in a marco-polo-like fashion. The first foal I saw was Chrysi, and though I was distracted by her insectine figure and sharpened fangs, I found her pretty. I've come to know her as the modest type -- sometimes a little ashamed of her looks, sadly. I want to tell her she is beautiful, I want to tell her I like her. But I'll have to wait until I work up the nerve to do so. Chrysi grinned at me. Sombra arrived right after. He's kinda scary-looking, but I'm not too shocked seeing as his voice was equally sinister. He is completely grey with a black mane and tail. His green eyes still glowed in the daylightjust as it had in utter darkness.
It took a while for me to notice this, but I now realise that both Chrysalis is an alicorn, just like Tia... and Luna... Mommy always told me that there weren't very many alicorns in Equestria because the rare gene runs only in royal blood. I don't know what 'gene' means. I think it's a type of fabric. Sombra is a unicorn, but he has really powerful magic. She told me that each alicorn is the embodiement of an element or emotion. Like light (Tia), and night (Luna). I wonder what my new friends control. Mom used to say that sometimes, a draconequus could inherit the powersof an alicorn. I wonder if she was telling the truth.
I wish I could ask her.
Oh,and before I forget, the voices haven't been speaking to me a lot lately. Not since I... hurt that colt. Sometimes the voices do whisper to me. One voice that keeps coming back sounds just like mommy. But I know it isn't her. it can't be. As much as I'd like to think she is still with me, I know because...
Because mom wouldn't tell me to hurt the guards. And that is what the vices want me to do.
I'm starting to wonder if I really am crazy.
