It was around dawn when I woke up and I'm telling you, it ain't an easy trip to sleep with such bizarre imagination. I dreamt about ponies and kinds of stuff, then I dreamt about Equestria in waste, then I dreamt about rainbows and fluffy things, then another dream came as it seems that my imagination is more than just "unlimited". Yeah, that sounds crazy, I know.
Sweet Velvet was sleeping in a sit at the edge of the room I'm in as I woke up. She looked tired, knowing she was up too late. I yawned silently, rubbing the dust out of my eyes, and took a look at the nature in the windows beside me. The sunrise was a beautiful sight.Better than seeing rainbows in my dream. I was paralyzed by the sunrise, then a pony in a doctor's suit came.
" Ahem, Arnold Brands. " the doctor spoke.
I tilted my head and caught my sight on the doctor. My nerves are telling me that he's Dr. Hoovilton, but then, I thought wrong. My thoughts are always making me feel like I'm a weirdo. I accidentally greeted the Doctor with the name of Hoovilton, but luckily, he is Dr. Hoovilton.
" Yeah... Anyways, we need to talk a little bit... " the doctor sat at the edge of the bed.
He was holding something. It looks like it's related to me, so I quickly asked what's the thing he's holding. The doctor shook his head.
" No, Arnold. This is not related to your own self, but this folder holds the files of others who you might know. Since you're a stranger to all and to others. " the doctor gave the folder to me.
I scanned the whole folder and I can't seem to remember them since they have no pictures and it's purely word-based. But what I found familiar is the name " Bella Smarts ". I remember the name, and also the appearance, but I have no idea who the hay she or he is. I don't assume genders, but I believe that's a mare's name.
" The name Bella Smarts sounds familiar to me, Doc. " I pointed my hoof at the file.
The doctor nods, reviewing the file with the name in it.
" So you are one of the Badlands Rascals. " the doctor said as he closed the folder.
The Badlands what now?
" ... hm... but I think you'll be fine... You seemed puzzled and confused... " the doctor heads out of the room, leaving me alone with Sweet Velvet, still sleeping, but she moved a bit.
Just... a bit.
" Badlands Rascals... " I thought. What is that anyways? Some sort of a group or an Equestrian group? No matter what it is, I bet it's purely evil. But if it's purely evil, those that mean I'm evil, too?
I wondered... Then a thud came after seconds, making Sweet Velvet jolt up, doing a karate post.
" WHO'S THERE?! DON'T TAKE MY PATIENT AWAY!!! " she cried loudly, making my ears go deaf.
Sweet Velvet blinked, noticing that she was too noisy. She looked at me and blushed, embarrassedly.
" Oh, uh... G-good morning hu- I mean Arnold. " she does an awkward smile at me.
And to be honest, it looks more creepy than awkward. The fully extended smile just gave me the creeps.But it's all good since I have a weird imagination.
After some time, Sweet Velvet offered my breakfast, a good chocolate cereals with milk. Of course, it's cow's milk, why would it be a mare's milk? I ate the whole thing and it was delicious.
" You'll be free after lunch. " said Sweet Velvet. But I badly need to talk to Doctor Hoovilton since he knew something about me. And what's good about a free pony without memories?
Lunch came, I had hayburgers. Sweet Velvet and Doctor Hoovilton were in the lobby. I'm also in the lobby, waiting for my "official freedom". After a few minutes, they talked to me.
" You're free to go, Arnold Brands. " both of them said at the same time. I thought that's it, but then, Doctor Hoovilton continued.
" Or if you want, I'll give you everything I can do to help you retrieve your memories, but you'll never be free once you received it... "
He was giving me a choice. He seems to think that my memories are full of bad kinds of stuff, but what do I have if I am free? Nothing much.
" I'd like to have my memories back... " I replied with hesitation.
Both of them looked at each other. Then back at me, nodding at my answer.
" Follow us, then. " Sweet Velvet spoke as they trotted.
I followed them behind, from rooms to rooms, I discovered more rooms inside the hospital, after some trotting, we stopped in front of a door which seems to be an office. Dr. Hoovilton opened the door and entered. The room was, indeed, an office. A decent office with a water dispenser on the side, a well-painted painting behind the desk and an high-quality office chair. The office's painted in sky blue and there is that portrait which looks like Dr. Hoovilton, himself.
After I entered the room, Sweet Velvet locked the door behind me. I was nervous about what's happening. Or whatever they'll do to me. Dr. Hoovilton sat in his office chair, bringing out the files he showed me before in his desk drawers.
" Arnold Brands, as far as I know, you are part of the Badlands Rascals. Yes, I know your reaction will be like 'What the hay is that?', but to be honest, I don't know what the hay is that. All I know is that they're a group in Badlands. That's all I know. But if you want more... "
The doctor gave me a copy of the files. I took a look at it again.
" Give these files to Garland. He lives in a store named 'Bad Apples' close by. He basically knows about factions and stuffs like that "
Sweet Velvet unlocked the door. I nodded at Dr. Hoovilton and headed out.
" Good Luck with that, Arny. " Sweet Velvet whispered in my ear.
I blushed hard. No one gave me a nickname, or well since I forgot everything about me... Garland, huh? I bet this is the store... Bad Apples...
My imagination's telling me that I'll be in a storm full of trash.
sorry, have to. GREAT BRAND, TOP PIK!!!!!
