I looked at the letter and crumbled it. This must be a joke, Celestia has ruled over a peaceful era for thousands of years, and now I’m supposed to do something about it. I looked over the list and was shocked to see who was on it, Luna, Twilight, Vinyl, Octavia, Fluttershy, Rainbow, Pinkie, Applejack, Rarity, and some other names. I decided that the whole thing was a joke, and tossed it all away, but I couldn’t get the thought out of my head. I turned to Twilight, who was sitting at the table reading a book. I shrugged my shoulder, what do I have to lose if it doesn’t work, besides looking like an idiot for a few minutes 

When I was walking up, she looked up and said, “Did you find the letter, or is Chrysalis losing her mind?”

I rubbed my back leg and said as I thought about how to go about this, “I did find a letter, but it seems to be just nonsense. Is it okay if I try something to see if it holds any truth?”

She placed the book on the table and said, “Sure, what do you need to do?”

I took a deep breath, and said robot and waited for Twilight to ask or laugh. I looked to see that she didn't move at all. I slowly stepped in front of her and waved a hoof in front of her, she didn’t blink at all. I thought about what to command her, then I got an idea. I said as I got ready to grabbed the letter and hand it to Twilight, “Head to your room, go to bed, sleep, and don’t wake up till I say awake.” It won’t work, since she might have work to do, and she wouldn’t even be tired since it’s noon. I took a step back as she got up, waiting for her to yell at me that she has work to do, but she just walked past me and out of the library. I followed her, then she stopped in front of a door and opened it. I’m guessing it was her room. I followed her in and shut the door, she didn’t even notice, and if she did, she didn’t care. As she was getting in bed, I looked around the room. There was a familiar smell, but I could put my hoof on it, and it was my first time being in here. I turned to Twilight to see that she wasn’t moving and her breathing slowed down, in other words, she was asleep. I walked up, and tapped her on the shoulder when that didn’t work, I rolled her on her back and back up a bit. When she didn’t wake up from that, the letter looked less of a joke. I shook my head and said forgetting about Twilight, “No, this can’t be real. There is no way that I am trying to take Celestia’s throne and no way I would control my friends. This is a joke someone else is playing on me. They put them under the spell, and when I try to do it more, I’ll be framed for it.” As I was walking out, I said awake and slipped out the door before Twilight could see me inside her room and ask questions. 

I went back to the library and took the notes, letter, and the list, and walked out the door of the castle. In the notes, it had coordinates and directions to a base that I supposedly used five months ago. I walked to my home to get my bag to get more potions. I ran out two days ago, so I didn’t have any yesterday or today. After I grabbed my bag, I headed to the Everfree forest towards the two sisters’ castle. As I was heading there, the animal stayed in the shadow where I couldn’t see them, but I could feel they’re eyes watching me. It felt great to get some quiet away from the sound of ponies screaming, yelling, and playing around. I shook my head and walking, when I finally reached the castle, it was about 3. I lit my horn to see the notes, turned, and headed right. 

It was about an hour walk of constantly looking over my shoulder to see if any monsters were following me or changelings were running at me to capture me and turn me into food when I reached a clearing. I looked around to see that there wasn’t anything there. I sigh, placed the papers in my bag so I can burn them when I get home, then I turned to around to head to Zecroa’s, to get my potions to help me a little with my nightmares, when I saw Chrysalis standing there. She smiled and said as she slowly moved towards me, either to not scare me or to make me more nervous about what’s going to happen, “So you believe my story master, your story?”

I took a few steps back and said as I powered up my horn to put up a barrier between us, “Stay back, I won’t let you kidnap me, have one of your drones replace me, and turn me into food. Can’t since I don’t love anyone that I remember, you’ll kill me, and change my attitude to make somepony like me.”

Chrysalis walked towards me and said, “Calm down, I’m not going to turn you into food or replace you.”

My eyes widen that it looked like they were going to pop out of my skull. I said right before taking off, “You're going to kill me and make it look like a timberwolf got to me, or you’re going to make me into a statue, then turn me into dust.”

As I was running away, I felt something grab my hind legs. I fell forward and when I turned around I saw Chrysalis pulling me back. I tried to grab the earth, but couldn’t. I closed my eyes and said as I was pulled, flipped over, and pinned down, “Disappear, Begone, Awake, Luna, wake me up from this nightmare, robot, SLEEP.” I felt something land on top of me. I opened my eyes to see Chrysalis on top of me asleep. I tried to scream, but it was caught in my throat, then I did the only thing a pony could do in my position, I fainted.
