Screams In The Dark

New Scooter

"Where.. Where am I?" I weakly ask as my eyes open.
"Oh crap.." I mutter as I realize I'm no longer in my own house. I'm back in the nightmare, right where it left off. The door opens and a shadow crosses the room. A figure steps in and closes the door, leaving the room again in darkness. A rag is pressed against my nose and mouth. A voice I know yet can't place whispers to me,
"Sleep child"
I'm back at the bottom of my steps, but now I have a splicing headache. I get up, and walk into the kitchen to look in the fridge for some milk. Just my luck, We’re out. Great fresh cookies without a refreshing glass of milk to dunk them into. Oh well…. Guess ill have to manage. I eat my cookies and head over to the door. Sweetie Belle mentioned something about a package. If there is any they'd be out on the porch. So i open the door and look outside. There's two big boxes and a few envelopes. I drag it all into the living room. I look at the labels on the mail. There's a bill for mom. But the rest are for me. I toss the bill on the table and get to work opening the boxes. The first one i open is the one from sweetie. Inside is a new customized helmet. There's also a note.

Get better soon Scoots!!! This is something i ordered for you.
I thought that now that you have a new scooter coming you'd
want a new shiny helmet to go with it.
Sincerely,
Sweetie Belle

I admire my new helmet, and try it out for size. It fits perfectly. Sweetie decorated it with spikes and a pair of wing stickers. Its perfect! I set the helmet aside and grab the other box. Its from the place that i bought my scooter from. I tear this box open ten times faster than the other and pull everything out of it. There's so many pieces, but hard work always ends in awesomeness. So I better get started. I work on my scooter for a few hours. When its finally done I decide to go outside and try it out. I headed towards Apple Blooms house. Shes probably worried sick about me. So I went as fast as I could. Luckily my new scooter was a motor scooter. So i could go ten times the speed I used to be able to go. I'm at apples house quicker than I would have imagined to be possible. I jump off my scooter and run up to her door. I knock and wait for an answer. Apple Jack opens the door. She looks me over, like I'm some kinda freak, before saying anything.

"Howdy Scootaloo. You look pretty good for what happened last night" she said unsure of her words.

"I guess... is Apple Bloom home?" I asked quickly.

Apple Jack nodded and went inside. I heard her yell and seconds later Apple Bloom was at the door. She stared at me for a few minutes before moving. When she finally did something, she ran out the door and squished me into a hug. I try to push her off because she is hurting me. But she keeps on hugging me. After awhile she lets go and keeps staring at me. We start to walk out into the orchard. Its almost harvesting season so all of the trees have apples on them. We sit under the biggest tree in sight. After about an hour of chatting she stands up to show me how she's been practicing on getting the apples out of trees. She turned around and kicked the trunk of the tree, causing the apples to fall of. Me not paying attention I get nailed in the head with one of them and get knocked unconscious.
