My eyes flickered open, I saw dark green leaves above me as I blinked away the stickiness I felt in my eyelids.

I sat up with a groan, glancing around the area I was in I realised it was a clearing of some sort; in a forest of trees, I had no idea what type they were.

I got up slowly, my eyes flicked around as I turned on the spot; trying to work out where the hell I was.

"Okay Vickie, you're in a forest somewhere; most certainly not in Australia any more, no gum trees; England perhaps? It is a bit chilly, but how would I get to England? Think logically Vickie!" I trailed off into silence as I thought for a moment.

"Best thing to do is to get to some sort of civilization, then find out where I am." I said firmly, before I glanced around.
"But which way do I go?"

I thought for a moment before I closed my eyes and spun in a circle with my finger pointed towards the woods, I stopped and I was pointing at one of the larger trees.

"I suppose I'm going this way then." I said, I grinned and walked over and past the large tree and into the forest; with no idea what was next for me.





I regret everything.

After walking for half an hour, I think; I hadn't found anything recognisable, just trees, trees and more trees.
I glared at the sun, which had been irritating me the whole way; I stared at a tree for a second before I started to climb it, no one was around to see my knickers anyway.

Around halfway up I was above the tree line and able to see where the forest ended, I apparently was heading the wrong way; way to go me.
I climbed my way down and began running in the direction where the trees ended, I would plan where to go from there.

A few moments later I realised I was going faster than I had ever run in my life, along with I wasn't tired at all for running that fast; just what the hell was going on?





I reached the edge of the forest and stared in shock, there was a quiant little cottage in front of me; and what was I staring at? A pony. Not just any pony, a butter yellow pony with wings. A pegasus.

It looked like a pony from My Little Pony, Fluttershy to be exact; but that's impossible- right?

The pony was feeding her- I think it's a her- animals, and because of this I'll call her Fluttershy because why not?
Fluttershy glanced up towards the forest, and me and she gasped in shock; which i impossible for a horse and a pony to do, she then shot over to me and smiled.

"Oh! Hello there, you don't look like any type of animal I've seen before; what are you?" Fluttershy asked, I stood; frozen as I realized, this was actualy Fluttershy. How was this possible?!

I jumped as I felt Fluttershy pushed me towards her house.
"Come on little one, I need to look you over; you're an especially odd creature. I wonder who made you these clothes? They certainly don't look hoof-stitched." Fluttershy said, I started walking; hell- what could go wrong?
