What the Tartarus, Twilight?!
When I tried walking through the portal, I nearly broke my nose!
What’s going on with the portal? Is something wrong? What’s going on over there?
No, wait, I get it now. You’re doing this. Yeah, that’s it. You’re taking them. Teleporting them away to who knows where. Wiping everyone’s memories so they don’t remember. Deleting every trace of them from every record ever. What kind of monster are you? Are you doing this to punish me? A belated punishment for everything I’ve done Was this your plan all along teach me the value of friendship, then take everything away screw you! screw you and your so-called friendship I should have just killed you when I got the chance Screwyouscrewyouscrewyouyou I’m so sorry I didn’t mean any of it I’m just really really scared Twilight please answer!

It's possible.
I'm betting Something Bad happened in Equestria and Twilight was actually the first to vanish, but this Sunset either didn't meet Sci-Twi beforehand, or actually did forget about herwhen she vanished. So with the re-written world where Twilight never existed, the equestrian journal is sitting forgotten in some closet in the castle.
Ask the girls if they remember Twilight and the Fall Formal incident.
For me, the most frightening thing about this chapter is its title.
PS:The author mistakenly wrote the title of this chapter as #28.That really scared me.

oops!
11109280
what was the title?

#28
This goes one of two ways...
- Magic, likely involving the memory stone or something similar.
- More likely, poor little Sunny is slowly waking up in a mental asylum...
The ending of the first movie where sunset was knocked out into a dream.
Getting really bad now
Doesn't feel good to be right about the portal not working.
I'm really getting worried about this Sunset.
This could be to do with Forgalorga's Starlight story arc where alicorn Starlights from across the multiverse tried and failed to prevent Gen 4 from being erased from existence. Between that and displacing all the ponies from one dimension, their efforts are playing hell on the human parallel world.
More please!
So what is gobbling everybody up? Has the Hydra from Foggy Bottom started erasing people's memories?

Magic is unlikely. The Memory Stone only erased memories, leaving photos and video unnafected.
11108935
Problem is, it has been done to death.

Unlikely. The false hydra is a homebrew D&D beast that erases itself from your memory via its song, along with any consequences of its presence. These range from the song itself, to that head outside your window, to the messages you left to remind yourself of it, to that brother you never had but didn't never have yesterday, to the steadily dropping popuation of the town you're living in... you get the idea.
It's constant song puts a steadily increasing strain on the minds of those that hear it, as it has to rationalize away more and more inconsistancies, leading to headaches, paranoia, and other symptoms of growing insanity. The song only pauses when it's about to feed, but as it grows more heads sprout, allowing it to continue singing while swallowing people whole.
The Foggy Bottom Bog hydra, meanwhile, is just a bog-standard (ha) hydra.
Oh, this is much bigger than Sunset. The retroactive changes are revealing the true terror of their scope, to the point that I'm not sure how much longer society can endure the attrition. In a few entries, Sunset may find herself scavenging for supplies in a the ruins of a quietly dying civilization. Or, if this extends to nonhuman life, a quietly dying world.
And there's no telling when she'll vanish herself...
11109672
I honestly didn't want to bring that one up myself.
11109672
Chills. I’m having chills all over my body.
11109672
Which would be worse, vanishing or being immune to it and being left completely alone...?
11109604
yeah... that's what I'm worried about.
Although, this could literally just be a story about human Starlight, and Sunny who is somehow immune.
Oi, Sunbutt Junior. Here's an idea for ya. Ask the girls if they remember Twilight, and what happened at the Fall Formal. Ever think of that?
11109600
You've not been paying attention methinks. It's been pretty that this is sometime before the Friendship Games, so they haven't even met Sci Twi yet. Sunset would remember her, even if no one else did.
11109792
Maybe this was happening during part of the S5 finale.
This seriously bad, I just hope that whatever it is that Sunset can find out what it is and hopefully stop before it's much too late.
She's losing her grip.
What happened to 1 to 20? XD
Ok I made that last comment as a joke before reading this and holy crap.
Usually I hate these really short stories but this one is giving me some existential fears.
The worst part is Sunset losing her gourd.
The moment that happens, things really spiral into madness.
Holy shit I'm on the edge of my seat!
