Hope

part I

"That had to be the strangest dream I have ever had" I thought to myself as I slowly begin to stir from my unexpected slumber. As I opened my eye's the light shone down brightly as I slowly began to stagger to my feet. I rub my eyes replying the dream I had that night. I look at the clock and it was only 7:04 PM. I stare at the time confused as I rub the back of my head. I had the worst head ache you could Imagine and all I felt like doing was going back to sleep. I turn my head to look around the room. As I begin to walk towards my door I hear a load girly voice coming from my bed. I stop in my tracks as the supposed dream last night turned out not be a dream at all. I turn around to see Pinkie pie smiling happily stretched out across my bed. She was facing the end of my bed and had the same expression she had when I first saw her. Her eyes glistened as the sunshine sparkled in her eyes. There was a friendly presence about her which made me smile with her.

"Hay your awake! It's about time I've been waiting for ages!" She suddenly sprang to her hooves and began to jump around my room. She must have been quite light because my step dad or mum didn't come up to see what the heck was happening. I stare at her bewildered. The shire brilliance that was Pinkie pie, was in my room!

I watched as she pounced towards me and then to the door. Words wanted to come out of my mouth but I was stopped by some unknown force. I was nervous and exited at the same time being a shy person. Pinkie pie looked at me confused then asked, “Hello, Anyone in there?” I snapped out of my fixated trance on the brightly coloured pink pony sat in the centre of my room.

Finally words came out of my mouth gradually. "How...where...why is there?" I began still not knowing what to say as Pinkie pie, from my all-time Favourite show was sat staring at me with the same grinned she always has in the show itself. Pinkie pies smile grinned and began to explain where she was from, who she was and about her past adventures with her friends although half the stuff she told me I already knew .

"Well, I'm Pinkie pie and I come from Equestria". I watched her in fascination as she exclaimed her origins and signalled her to continue. "So I come from Ponyville where I work in a bakery!" She seemed intent of telling me every detail about her and I couldn't stop listening. I was surprised at how she was so comfortable with sharing her life story with a different species, In fact she wasn't even from this world yet she seemed to trust me instantly. She looked exactly how she did in the show but strangely enough she didn't look 3D as such although I presumed she was otherwise I would have a flat picture of pinkie pie talking to me. Finally she finished explaining practically her whole life story to me she finally asked, “So what about you?" I looked at her for a moment and then looked down to the floor again.

My mind had gone blank once again. A look of worry crossed pinkies face. "Please don't faint again" she said worriedly. Her expression was so adorable it caused me smile and I was brought me back to reality within a split second. "No Pinkie I'm not going to faint again" I said reassuringly. And that was all it took to bring Pinkie pie back into her random chatty self again. I was fascinated by the fact she would act normally in a world she didn't know or recognize, although that's what I presumed anyway. She couldn't have been here for long or someone would notice her and it would surely be all over the news. I imagined it then, animated pink pony found prancing down road . There would be scientists all over her trying to understand where she came from. Yet the thought of some of the things they might do to her in the name of science made me shiver. No , I thought to myself, I wouldn't let that happen.

I noticed I had just gone into another trance again which had begun to creep her out. This time I stood up making sure I don't daydream anymore. I began to pace up and down my room thinking what to do next or how to keep her a secret if she was to stay where she was. Pinkie pie was still waiting for an answer so I finally told her. "My names Sam and this is my house" I said blankly, I couldn't think of anything else to tell her yet I was still anxious encase my mum decided to walk into the room suddenly. Pinkie pie started to giggle making a snorting noise when she did. It was a classic moment from one of the episodes and I still couldn't believe she was really in my room. "I already knew that silly, I mean like where is this place?” It was as if pinkie pie had dropped into another world, found her way into my house and began to ask questions about where she was yet she still kept a smile on her face all the way. For all I knew that's exactly what happened?

"Urm... you’re in England" I said unsure if she would have any clue where that was or not. Pinkie pie rolled her eyes and looked at me blankly. "No, no I mean what world is this?" she asked. I looked at her for a moment and then proceed to answer. "Earth" I said to her, I was so tempted to ask how life was in Equestria and about her friends but she hadn't told me about them yet. Pinkie pie let out a sigh followed by an "Oh". Suddenly her ears pricked up and she stared blankly into nowhere.She quickly looked at me with a smile and said "Sorry for bothering you, Its been nice meeting you". With that she looked around and headed for the door. This took me completely of guard so I ran after her. Fear came back to haunt me of the thought of my mum and dad ever seeing her. What would happen then? Would they take her away? I didn't know but I couldn't just let Pinkie pie just jump round the streets all day.

"Wait!" I helped just as she managed to prize the door open with her hooves and begin to head towards the flight of stairs. "Where will you go? Why did you come here?" To many questions wanted to fly out of my mouth at that moment but I could only allow the most important ones to be said. Pinkie pie turned to look at me with a simple "I'm going back home". She then pranced down my stairs and before I knew it she was at the back door. I was thank full that my mum and dad where working so they were oblivious to the bright pinkie prancing pony trotting casually to my back door. I followed her to my back door where she managed to open my back door as well. She might have been giddy and hyper but she sure was fast and clever. I ran out after her not bothering to put my shoes on for the pure reason Pinkie was going way to fast.

I continued to follow her as she went through my back garden and towards a small ally way that connected to my garden. It connected all the neighbouring houses together by this one passage. She headed through there vanishing into the passage. I reached the entrance of the passage but when I looked up my eyes were dazzled by one of the most brilliant sights I had ever saw. Sure enough in the passage stood Pinkie pie but she stood in front of a glowing purple orb. It spiralled inwards in a whirlpool of colours and energy. The dim light that only just passed through the clouds over head seemed to be attracted to this wonderful spectacle. It was almost like I could feel the energy hitting me in the face like a warm fire but that wasn't the only force that seemed to be in play. Some force unknown to this earth seemed to be radiated from the spiralling hurricane of energy. It seemed to hold it open yet with an aspect of control, as if someone was holding it open.

It soon became apparent that the spiralling vortex that Pinkie was heading for appeared to be some kind of portal. Suddenly multiple thoughts seemed to rush into my head. It had all happened to fast and my judgment was clouded by the visual feast that played out in front of me. Pinkie pie turned her head to look at me and then waved. She then proceeded to the portal in front of her. She did so in a hurry however due to the fact the portal seemed to be getting smaller. Suddenly without thinking I ran towards Pinkie as fast as I could. I didn't know why I was running towards her but something inside me was telling me to do it. Something Inside me didn't want her to go.

My mind was racing as I approached Pinkie pie. I could feel the energy of the portal gradually getting weaker even as I approached it. Just as I reached Pinkie I grabbed her not knowing why or what for but I did. As if she was an infant about to cross the street on their own. As I grabbed her I clung onto her pulling her back as she turned to see what was going on. I flung my body in front of her and the portal as if it was about to explode into flames. Pinkie pie was to bewildered to react as I made a barricade in front of her and the portal. Suddenly there was a flash behind me and a gust of wind hit me suddenly. I turned my head to look at the portal only to find that it had vanished and the passage way was plunged into silence. Not even the birds where singing as even they seemed to watch the events play out below them.

Suddenly the reality of what I had done hit me in the face like a freight train. Pinkie pie stood still in complete shock. Wave of thought and consequence's hit me one by one as I stared at the place the portal had been and then at Pinkie. I could only think of one thing as I replayed the events that only just happened moments ago. Ow no I kept thinking to myself, What have I done?
