It was a wonderful day in Equestria, the sun bathed the land with light, the birds were chirping, and the Crystal castle that held the Princess of Friendship was shining and glowing with light. Princess Twilight and her friends were sitting on their thrones and chatted about how amazing this castle was, how it sparkled and how huge it was, well in truth that was all Rarity. The white Unicorn with a lovely purple mane was rambling about how great the castle was much to Rainbow Dash's annoyance. But while the two mares argued the owner of this spectacle could not think how she got such a glory just a simple mare she was. Granted with the glory of being THE Princess Celestia's graduated student, connected to the Elements of Harmony, The savior of Equestria, and a Princess herself. It was too much to think about. She had just defeated the menace Lord Tyrek, he had tried to take over but the new 'Rainbow Power' had stopped him. Twilight had been in her own world so long she had not noticed her friends calling her name.
" Twilight are you ok? " asked the orange farm pony AppleJack .
" Darling are you feeling bad?" asked the white Unicorn Rarity.
" HEY EGG HEAD SNAP OUT OF IT!" said the cyne mare Rainbow Dash
" Huh what.." The Lavender Alicorn asked as she snapped out of her trance.
" You were out of it." The Pink earth pony Pinkie Pie said out of nowhere appearing behind Twilight.
" A-are you sure you're alright?" asked the shy buttercream colored Pegasus Fluttershy
Twilight was fixing to respond when a sudden wave of dizziness washed over her. It was unlike any other wave of dizziness this one shot pain into her temples it was like a tornado and 2 by 4s were battling in her nogen. She put a hoof to her temple as the pain became worse. Then all she could hear were ringing bells, her hearing had gone out. Then the pain started rushing through her whole form starting at her head and moved through her whole body. she stood up and began to walk to her friends when the pain reached her chest. The pain was unbearable simply unbearable it felt as if someone had taken a knife and stabbed her while casting a fire spell. It burned as her whole body shook in agony, her friends started surrounding her but she did not notice all she noticed as the undearable pain. The pain must have got to her after five agonizing minutes because she blacked out.
Panic. That's all that rushed through the Five ponies head as her friend had screamed in pain and even more so when she passed out or worse..
Fluttershy was tucked into a tight ball rocking back and forth, Pinkie Pie looked at her friend as her mane slowly became limp, AppleJack took notice of this and and began trying to lift her friends mane, Rainbow Dash was shaking Twilight back and forth violently telling her this wasn't funny she needed to stop the joke, while Rarity was dabbing her eyes with a Mint purple handkerchief trying to calm herself. Nothing seemed to be cheering the mood and when Spike walked in the room after spending the day with the cutie mark crusaders and ran to Twilight, seeing her lying on the cold crystal floor drove him to tears, why was his mother figure on the floor unconscious? With an unusual speed he ran to Twilight as Rainbow gave up her method of waking Twilight up too give room for the distrot little dragon. Spike grabbed Twilight and quickly wrapped her in a tight hug crying into her fur he had not know what had happened but he knew she was hurt. If everyone's spirits hadn't been fully crushed they were now as they saw the poor baby dragon crying his heart out not knowing what had happened, but in truth know one knew what had truly happened to their beloved friend.
Darkness that is all Twilight could see and pain was all she could feel. She had no idea where she was then she remembered the pain she had felt in the Throne room and one question raised though her mind.
' was she dead?'
She was stuck with terror if she was dead then what would happen to her friends, her friends if she was truly dead they would be struck with sorrow and pain. All she could think about was how her friend would react. FlutterShy would lock herself inside her cottage and cry her fragile heart out, Pinkie would become her old self Pinkamina Diane Pie nopony would be filled with happiness if Pinkie was like that she was depressing and insane like that, Rarity might lose her spark and lose her creative design and lose her business just the thought made Twilight want to shutter. Rainbow Dash would blame herself and shut herself more than normal and lose contact, and AppleJack would take it the hardest since she had stated they would always be connected. Twilight did not know what would happen to AppleJack but she knew she would be emotionally broken as would all her friends, the thought made her want to cry in this black abyss. suddenly she felt warmth like a light surrounding her the darkness faded as she returned to the waking world, she hadn't died she had just passed out and as pleasing as that was she was just so happy none of those terrible things would happen.
"Or will your nightmare come true?" said a chilling voice inside her head.
It started pulling her back into the darkness as long dark tentacles came and grabbed her fore legs and her front legs as well and started pulling her back into the depths in darkness.
" No NO! I will NOT go back there! " she said filling her horn with magic.
" I'm afraid you have no choice in the matter. " said the meaning voice as the tentacles wrapped around her whole form consuming her destroying the magic that was pulling her from this cursed trap inside her own mind. If she only knew what was truly happening.
