After, they had left, me and Rosey sit there in silence, trying to comprehend what had just happened. Rose's friend had talked about how Rose Luck is really a character from a cartoon known as My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. Of course I didnt believe it because my daughter came to me through a wish I had made. But, sure enough, she gave us proof where she was really from.
It gets me wondering of my wish reversed her age, erased her memories, and replaced them with new ones, where she thought she was my daughter. I still dont believe it. Rose is MY daughter, she cant be from this place called Equestria! Its not possible! At the same time it makes sense, but then again, it doesnt. To believe my daughter is from another world is not compatible with my thinking!
But, what if it is true? Did she have a life I possible ruined with my wish? Was she happy with that life? What if my wish screwed up a wbole slue of things? I wouldnt be able to live with it. Seeing this pony and saying shes got my blood in her veins, but being wrong the whole time! Or maybe it duplicated that Rose luck, and the second one was brought to me, then I dont have to worry about a thing!
The worst part about the situation, is that Rose doubts shes my daughter. I tell her I love her I try to hold her...nlw im afraid of losing her. She is the onlg good thing left in my life. If I lose her...you know im actually not gonna think about that. Nope. She just wont listen to me.
"Rose, come on, please! I just wanna-" i begin to say
"No!" She snaps.
"Look, hun, I know you're confused, and trust me, I am too...please, Rose. I love you. Very very much."
"I...I..." She begins to stammer but doesnt say anything.
"I just wanna hold you close like I've always done. You are my daughter, no matter what, and as your mother, its my job to love and care for you."
She turns her head back to look at me, tears dripping down her face.
"Do...do you really mean that?" She stares deep into my eyes, searching for any signs that I may be lying.
"Im your mother, of course I mean it. Now come here."
I watch her as tears continue to stream down her cheeks. She gets up from the couch on the other side of the room, and climbs into my lap.
"No matter what you'll always be my little girl." I give her a sweet smile as i begin to pet her mane. She looks back up at me with bittersweet eyes, and a sincere smile. "Even if by some slight chance you aren't my daughter, I will still treat you as if you were. I love you very...very much, Rose, I would do anything to make sure we're together."
Soon I come to find its my turn to cry as tears begin streaming down my cheeks.
"You are the only thing I have left, Rose. I dont wanna lose you."
"I love you too mommy!" She cries into my chest as I hold her close.
"Now how about something to eat, cause im starving."
"Okay, mom."
I head into the kitchen with Rose in my arms. She sighs happily as she nuzzles my cheek, and hugging me around my neck.
I scan what possible food there is to eat inside the fridge, mostly herbs and salads and such. After Rosey csme into the picture, I had to adjust to being a vegetarian. It was very hard saying good bye to bacon for me. What with Rose being an herbivore I cant bring myself to let a morsel of meat into this house. Although I still eat imitated stuff. Like beef jerky. I was told that stuff is fake.
Anyway, after another five mintues of searching I find a bowl of spaghetti with tinfoil over the top at the hack of the bottom shelf. This just happens to be the last thing mom had made. With a sigh, I pull the large blue bowl out of the fridge and place it on the counter. I set Rose down next to the bowl, and head to a cupboard on the other side of the kitchen for some plates.
Im a bit too short to reach, but who says I can climb on top of the stove? I let out a low grunt as I reach for my target. With ease, I grab two plain white plates, and head back over to Rose.
"Mommy?"
"Yes, Rosey?"
"Im...Im sorry for doubting you as my mother. You must be really mad at me." She gives out a saddened sigh, as she gazes down at the floor.
"Oh, no sweetheart, I cant be mad at you." I lift her chin up with my hand, and stroke her mane a little. "Why would you think that Im mad?"
"I dunno."
"Exactly. Now lets eat."
I serve us both a fair amount of noodles and sauce, and we head into the dinning room.
"I wish there were other ponies like me here. It sucks being the only one."
"Hey, chin up! We just got you home from the hospital, now lets try to be happy, okay?" I ask concerned, Taking a bite out of my spaghetti.
"I dont know, mom. I dont know what to believe."
"Believe what Rose?"
"I dont know. What if I really am just...a cartoon?" Rose asks, about to take a bite of her spaghetti, before sighing and placing her fork back down. "How do I even exist, then?"
"Rose, I wish I could tell you, but Im just so confused as of right now."
"You're telling me." She chuckles a bit as she begins eating.
Thr rest of supper goes eithout a word said. Just awkwardly exchanged glances between eachother amd our food. Just a sigh every now and again were the only sounds to be heard under the dim light. I just wish I could answer all her qeustions and her problems be water under the bridge, and things go back to normal. I want whats best for Rose, but right now, I dont know what is best.
Ahh ha ha ha ha hahaaaa!!
I jump at the sudden laughter, looking around aimlessly to try and find its source. At the same moment, everything in the house begins to shake and rattle at a violents rate, ending up with me fling to my butt. Rose doesnt hesistate to run to me for protection. I take her in my arms, holding her close. Brcause whatever is going on, I will protect my daughter. I watch as a swirl of grey smoke appears in the middle of the room, and a sudden white flash blinds the both of us.
"Whoever you are, just go away and leave us alone!" I cry out, holding Rose closer to my chest.
"M-Mommy...Im scared..."
"Its gonna be okay, Rose." I fumble around, trying to find her head. When I do, I stroke her mane to try and comfort her.
After a few more seconds, the flash dissapates, and in the niddle of the room, as the smoke clears, a tall...being stands. My fear goes down the drain at the sight of whatever this thing is...it looks like a mesh of several different animals put together. A snake body, a dragons tail, a donkey leg and a horse leg. And a lions arm and paw, and a birds arm with talons for finger. And its head... I dont even knkw what its head is. It stands there smirking for a few seconds.
"Well...what do we have here? A little mommy daughter bonding time? Well isnt that just cute?" The creature says, making quotations with his finger when he said mommy daughter bonding time.
"What do you want from us? Why are you here?" I aske sternly, placing Rise on the ground behind me, as I stand up.
"Oohh, just a little fun is all." I tilt my head that some creature that was mostly an experiment gone wrong in my house, asking for fun.
He snaps his lions fingers which really confuses me. How do you snap with all that lions fur on them? But, what catches me off gaurd is that Rose suddenly appears in his arms. I gasp as she tries to squirm to get free.
"Now, now little Rose Luck, dont fret, all is well, I assure you." With that said, I see these purple, magical restraints keep Rose still as he begins to pet her along her back like a cat.
"Enough, you're scaring her!" I lunge at the two, trying to get my daughter back, but he and Rose suddenly turn transparent, and I went right through them! Which causes me to fall flat on the floor. Now my fear is gone. Just doesnt exist. Just pure rage now.
"I said give my daughter back!" I go to lunge at them again, but the creature move to the side, but thanks to my brain's three times faster than the average humans proccessing speed I caught what he was doing. I stop, and turn, then deliver a successful upper cut to his jaw, causing him to stumble backwards.
"How rude! Punch your guest in the face when all he wants is fun. And is that whats going on here? You seriouslg think this little...pony is your daughter?"
"Its because she is my daughter!" Rose continues to fight and squirm, but gets nowhere. I can tell shes screaming for me to help, but her mouth is covered.
"Speaking of rude...I never introduced myself. I am known as Discord, god of chaos! And you are?"
"Sarah, now give me back my daughter!! You freak!!" I snap at him, and raise a fist as if to hit him again.
"You really think you're going to get far with that? It took the six most powerful magical forces to stop me, and you think just punching is going to do the trick? Those blasted ponies force me to be good. But good isnt in my nature, hence the name god of chaos!"
With a sigh, I lower my hand in defeat. He was right. I cant do anything. I cant save my own daughter from this.
"Back to the whole daughter thing. What makes you think she is. Shes not your species, shes not from this world, you never did anybody to have a child. What ever gave you that thought?"
"She came to me through a wish I made over a year ago."
"Well, you should be thanking me. I made that wish come true."
I let out a surprised gasp that this thing gave me Rose, and now he's most likely going to take her.
"I simply erased her current mind, and reversed her age and sent her here, with new knowledge that you were her birth mother, which is anything but true."
"NO!! YOU'RE LYING!!" I shout, as a tear falls from my eye, slowly sliding down my cheek.
"My dear, what I tell you is the truth. I am sorry to do this, and thats a lot coming from me. I was ordered by Celestia to come and retrieve her since this is not where she belongs. Although, seeing your torment has been quite pleasurable, because again, chaos is in my nature."
"You monster!"
"If Celestia hadnt found out what I had done, this wouldnt be happening, so if anybody, be mad at her. But I really must be going, now. Celestia can be a real pain in the neck when shes pissed. Ta ta!"
I watch as a white light slowlg envelopes Rose and Discord. Im assuming hes taking her to his world. But Im going with! I reach my hand out and grab Discords right leg and thatvsame magic surrounds me, and with a flash...we are gone.
When the light clears again, all I can see is a white mist surrounding me, and seens to never end in any direction. I come to find myself laying on the ground.
"H-hello" I call out, my voice echoing through the void. "Anybody there?" Still, no response.
I try to get up, but my limbs wont cooperate. They move, but not how I want them to. I sit up from my lying position, and come to see a shocking discovery.
I gasp as I see two purple furry legs stick out of me, and two purple arms as well. They all join together with my abdomen which is also purple with fur. Between my legs, I see a pink tail, with a purple highlight on each side. My feet and hands have been replaced with hooves. I feel about my face to see that I have a muzzle, and my ears have moved to the top of my head, and are now pointed. Im a...
Im a pony.
But why?
It doesnt matter anyway. I nust wanna find Rose, and get out of here. I stand up on all fours, since ponies are quadruped. Guess I will have to learn on my own to walk before I get anywhere. I slowly place a fofeleg out in front of me, then the other, then the hind legs. Well at least until I fell over to my side with a thud.
Well this is just peachy. I've lost everything I had. My parents. My second mom. My boyfriend, now my daughter, and now my humanity and I have to idea where I am.
Several un answered questions flow through my head, as I continue trying to walk with several more falls. Right now, I dont care about anything. I just want my daughter back.
After about ten minutes I am guessing, I can finally walk without flaw. Or would it be trotting? Its kind of fun actually, to trot. I giggle a little as I pick up my pace. At least I have something to lift my sour spirit. After a while of just trotting around randomly, with only the sounds of my breathing and my hooves clip clopping on the ground to be heard.
"Hello? Anybody out there? I need help!"
Suddenly, I hear a popping sound cone from behind me.
"Ah, there you are!" Said a deep regal womans voice.
I spin around to see a tall blue horse with a horn and wings! What is she? A pegacorn? Or a unicasus? Bah, it doesnt matter!
Her sky blue eyes, and sincere smile shows me this one might not be a threat.
"It was hard to find you, since you have no magic in you at all. That with being from another world which doesnt have magic."
"Yeah...you see this thing named Discord took my daughter, and I caught him before he disappeared, and I wound up here, and There is nothing but this mist everywhere."
"We are in my dream scape. This is the realm I come to when I visit the dreans of others. See?" Her horn lights up a dark blue color, and a hole opens up in the mist. In that hole, I see me..the pony version of me in what looks like a hospital bed, with other ponies who seem to be doctors looking me over.
"So, Im sleeping right now?
"I would rather choose the word unconscious. When you followed Discord, he hadnt aquired to use enough magic to get you here, but luckily it was just enough to pull you through. It made you blackout. So I brought you here. You are really lucky to have survived." She says camly, nodding her head at me.
"But why did I get turned into a pony?"
"It was just like when my sisters student, Twilight sparkle, went to a human workd that was parallel to mine, she was transformed into a human. When she came back she turned back into a pony. So, when you came through, you were transforned into what you are now."
"Okay. If I go back I should change back into a human, right"
"Precisely. Oh, and by the way, my name is Princess Luna."
I gasp when she says princess, and I immediately bow.
"Oh, you dont have to be so formal."
"Alright." I said, standing hack up.
"Now, about Rose Luck..."
"Yeah, shes not really my daughter." I sigh with a sniff.
"During the four hours that you have been unconscious, I took care of Discord. If Celestia hadnt disabled the majority of his magical capabilities, I wouldnt have beaten him. I have him restrained in tartarus for what he did. He will be there for a long time. And Rose, she misses you a lot. Shes standing right outside your hospital room right now. Its visiting time soon. I would assume you want to see her."
"Yes, your majesty."
"Very well."
"Thank you Luna!" I hug her tight around the neck, her fur is soft against me.
"Just doing whats right. Now, time to wake up." Her horn glows, and everything around me fades away.
I awaken with a jolt, sitting up in an instant, the doctors whom sorround me gasp in surprise.
"What in Equestria? We weren't expecting you to be awake for another three hours!" Said a tan one with a brown mane and tail, in a white coat.
"My thanks to Princess Luna, then."
They gasp again, the tan one getting closer.
"Yeah...She woke me up cause she said its visiting time soon, and Im expecting someone."
"Ah, yes that small filly just outside. We pretty much just finished up checking your vitals, so theres no harm in letting her in a bit early."
"Thanks doc!"
He gives a smile as he and two mares leave the room, and Rose enters. God I feel lime a fricking train wreck!!
"Mom?" Rose says as she steps inside.
"Hi hunny." I respond calmly. She sees me and like the doctors she kets out a gasp of surprise.
"You're a pony, mom!"
"Yes, I know, now come here, so I can hold you."
She smiles and jumps onto the bed, and lays by my side. I smile as well, wrapping my forelegs around her, and holding her close.
"I was worried, mommy!" She sighs sadly, as she begins to cry into my chest.
"I know, but mommy is here now. Im fine, hunny, Im just so happy you're safe." I kiss her on the head, and begin petting her back.
"I love you mommy! They may say you're not my real mom, but you are to me."
"I know, and I love you as well."
