Finding Peace

I wasn't happy with my life by a long shot, but I wasn't so unhappy I would kill myself. But then why am I laying here with a knife beside me, and my wrist cut open? Was my depression really that bad? And what is that laughter in my head? Why does it taunt me by offering a happier life when I know it's only a trick? But then again, what do I have to lose if I accept the offer?

What did you expect when the main character is suffering from depression, and goes to a world were they just had an attack by a magic sucking centaur?

14 dislikes and only 5 comments. Could someone at least tell why they don't like?

4632235 Well, welcome to the real world where not everything is rainbows and sunshine. Also welcome to the introduction of dark stories for this fandom, as what I did is far more tame than what I've read.

4632348 I'll let you in a little secret, this chapter will be one of the more darker ones. After it will start to lighten up, also I plan on ignoring them. As long as at least one person wants to read it, this story will continue.

7374841 There are a few reasons why I put this story on hiatias. 1. at the time I had many stories going on and had to put them on hold including this one. 2. at the time I didn't feel like people liked the story and wanted to give some time before starting it again. But no this story is not cancelled, but it'll probably be a bit before I get back to it.

And like that, I woke up in a cold sweat at the alicorns warning. Though I figured it could have just been a lucid dream of my darker side trying to play on my doubts, but seeing as how I heard a voice in my head before dying and having it transport me here was enough proof that made me think it wasn't just a dream. I don't blame that princess for giving me that warning though, I am an unknown creature to them that may present a threat.
Though still feeling a little shaken, and quite sore I got up and leaned on the tree holding my head. Feeling like it was about to split open, and feeling like I was going to puke I stayed standing there for a little while. Once my stomach calmed down, and the pain in my head I look around to see that the sun was just now rising.
I turn to face the town, and I could now see something that I hadn't either noticed or thought was just a weird shaped tree. But as I looked, I could see that what I saw coming towards the town wasn't just a tree. It was a tree that was made out of some kind of crystal, and looked like some kind of castle.
I decide to just chalk my bad vision on the fact that I was dazed, it was getting dark, and I was very tired and hungry. But thinking about my hunger only made my stomach growl, and I realized that was why I might have felt the need to puke. Though I pushed that thought back, and started to walk forward towards the town hoping that they wouldn't just attack me.
Once I'm close enough, I stop to sit down and to take a look to see if I can approach them this early without them panicking or trying to attack me. Though I highly doubted it as it seems that the town just now looked like it was just coming to life. Besides, by the way that princess acted made me think this wasn't a good idea.
That's when I saw the first pony walking out of their house, with a huge smile on his face as he trotted off towards where ever. From what I could tell, he looked to stand around my waist, maybe even stomach given as to how far away I am. But if that's so, then these ponies are a little bigger than the ones on Earth.
I waited for awhile until I thought the town was completely awake and started to move closer. Though with every step, I feel a little slower and slower, until I come to a stop by the edge of the town. Not one of them have spotted me, and maybe that was a good thing. Maybe I could head back to the woods, and either try to survive there or die starving. But, before I could turn around I heard a scream.
"What is that over there?!" A frightened voice cut across, and the near by ponies turned their gaze to see what she was screaming at and my eyes widened in fear, frozen by the stares.
For a good moment, everything was silent in the immediate area with only the wind blowing in a nice little chill in the air. Before any of them could act, I finally broke free and started to make my way back to the woods. Though my path was cut off by a group of ponies, pegasi by the looks of their wings, staring the same shocked and some what frightened expressions.
"Somepony call the guard!" I heard the voice of a male call, and after that everything that I was worried about came to be.
"Please, don't call the guard, I'm friendly!" I scream in panic, hoping that they listen but that only made them go into a riot.
I soon found myself somehow moving into the town, most likely because I was running on blind panic hoping to find at least one of these ponies who would listen. But by the time I got to what I would assume was the town market place, everyone of them were in a panic. I look around, and see what looked like stallions in golden armor coming towards me, but then I took noticed what looked like a mare with a pale yellow coat and a purple mane, with a light purple steak in it looking at me with surprise.
Though, that wasn't what actually caught my attention fully as I saw one of the market carts seemingly moving on it's own accord. I stared for a second to see if my eyes were playing tricks on me, but the cart seemed to be leaning further and further. The mare was right by it, still focused on me to realized she was in danger.
"Hey, get out of the way!" I yelled, and started to run towards her, having to push my way pass many of the panic induced ponies.
I feel something hit me in the back, but kept running knowing if I didn't do something this mare would be crushed by this cart. Knowing it would be my fault for causing this panic, which the pony running the cart had left in a panic jumping over it and making it start to tilt somehow. Yet another force hit me, this time on my right leg, though like the last one I ignore it and the mare is only a few feet away, she now wore one of horror.
Everything happened in a blur, I remember tackling the mare out of the way of the tilting cart in enough time when a panicked pony ran and bumped into it making it fall. I was on top of this mare, who was still staring at me with horror, but her eyes drifted from me to where she had stood. But before she could speak to me, I'm pulled off and tossed back.
The guards that I saw finally caught up, staring at me making me shrivel back in fear. They had looks in their eyes that told me that they intend to kill me, tear flowing down my face. I hadn't wanted to die, that was the whole point of me choosing to come here, to avoid dying. Though, I guess that's what I wanted in the first place, but then what did I actually do to deserve death? All of this panic was brought on by mob mentality, not by me.
They started to move towards me, and I was about to run in panic before I gave a yelp of pain as I tried to put weight on my right leg. I looked down, and see a deep gash in it making me pale, and then the pain in my back made me completely fall. The guards were on me before I could even move a muscle, hooves striking my body, making me wonder again what I did to deserve this.
"Stop! You'll kill them!" I could barely make out a female voice.
"Get back, we have to deal with this thing before it can cause any more damage." I heard a guard say, restraining the mare who was trying to pry the guards off of me. Though, why didn't they just finish me if that's what they were going to do, didn't they have weapons?
"Please stop, it didn't do anything!" The mare yelled, and from the tone she was crying.
"It started a riot, and some say it was trying to attack some of the citizens." The guard restraining her snapped.
"No, it didn't! I was there when it came into town, we caused the riot ourselves by panicking! And I know it didn't try to attack anypony, it was running away from being attacked!" The mare yelled back, breaking free of the guard and managing to pry off one of the guards before they restrained her again.
I don't know how I was still conscious after being beaten like this, and from how I arrived and to the injuries I gained from trying to save that mare. Though, one punch sent black spots throughout my vision and I started coughing as I grabbed my neck where the punch had landed, most likely crushing my wind pipe. After that, I blacked out yet again the last thing I felt was a warm body on top of mine, and barely hearing a booming voice.
Author's Note:
Well, this idea was on of those that popped out of no where and wouldn't leave me alone. So, hope you enjoyed and remember to smile, smile, smile!
