Life is an Illusion

by AkumaNoNeko

Or Maybe I'm Not

I blink the sleep away. I wake to unknown place. An unfamiliar area.

I don't know how I got here.

I get out of bed and walk to a mirror. I am not me. Who am I? Who is this mare that is staring back at me? I am not this mare. I am Twilight Sparkle. Not this mare.

I don't know who I am.

My eyes begin to absorb to area around me. The place is still unrecognizable. Neither is the mare in the mirror. There is no one around me.

Where are my friends?

I look out I window. I am in a cloud house in the sky. Why am I here? Where is my castle in Ponyville? And where is Ponyville at all? I am lost.

Where is my home?

This is not my place. I attempt to use magic. Nothing happens. I look in the mirror again. I am not even a unicorn. I am a pegasus.

My race is changed. How is that possible?

I don't understand. What has happened to me? Is this a dream? Where is everybody? This has to be a dream. It can't be real. It just can't.

I will wake up any second. It has to happen. I just has to.

It doesn't though.

Am I stuck here? In this nightmare? I still don't know who I am. Nothing can tell me who I am.

My identity is missing.

This can't be happening.

I am not this pegasus. I am Twilight Sparkle. The Princess Of Friendship. Element Of Magic. Friend of Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie. Apprentice of Princess Celestia.

Or maybe.

I'm not.
