Chapter 44: The Dark Descent, Part 1
CHAPTER 44
I was sitting on my couch, trying to relax a little bit for once. I felt terrible that day, and I just wanted to rest a little bit, and hope that I feel better.
"Man, I've really gotta take better care of myself."
I laid back on the couch, and looked out the window of my cloud home, looking at all of the other clouds roll by, and trying to match them to animals or items or anything, really.
"Oh Kyle~..."
Oh no... "Torrie, please, for the love of- Would you just go away?"
"No. I told you I had a plan for you, didn't I? And I think you're going to love it..."
I crossed my arms, and let out a sigh. "Ugh... Alright, go on ahead, do your worst, see if I care."
"How considerate of you."
I suddenly felt very lightheaded, and my vision began to blur. "What... The... Hell?" I put my hand on the side of my head, and I started swaying back and forth. "What're you doing to me?!"
I heard mad laughter ring through my head, and I fell back down on the couch. Everything was swaying back and forth, and pulsating.
"Hehehe... Now you just sit there, and enjoy what I have in store for you, you miserable little whelp."
I couldn't make a witty comeback, as I'd fallen over, and blacked out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Ugh... What the-?!" I sprung upwards. I was laying on the floor... But I wasn't in my living room. I was in some old, musty room, with cobblestone walls, and a wooden floor. There was a single, old-style door, a table, a bed, and a dresser. I was standing on a dirty old rug. "Why does this seem... Familiar...?"
I heard Torrie's evil laughter in my head. "Oh, you'll find out... I'll just leave you to it, Kyle. Have fun..." I decided to leave the room. I was in an old hallway, with a window to my left, with a table under it. On the table, sat a lantern. Something clicked in my mind.
"No... No. No, he didn't... No fucking way."
More evil cackling, and I felt my eyes bulging. "Yes, I did. I've locked you in the deepest recesses of your mind. You know that little spot in your mind where you shove things you want to forget? You're there. All your worst fears, your most crushing moments, your most evil deeds... All of them reside here, and you're going to relive each and every one of them."
I rubbed my hands on my face, and shook my head. "Oh no... I can't believe this... And lemme guess, if I die in here, my body just goes 'kaput' on the outside?"
"You're a clever one. Exactly. Now, you go off and have your fun. I'll see you in hell..." I felt the mental link sever, and I was on my own.
"I would have preferred his company over the silence... Oh well..." I went back into the first room, which was obviously a bedroom. I searched the dresser, and I got a single tinderbox, and a small flask of oil.
"Great... I just HAD to love Amnesia back on Earth... I hate myself sometimes."
I heard something move on the floor above me, so I tried to quiet my footsteps, and I kept the lantern off. The hallway was barren, asides from two doors on each side at the very end.
"I guess I'd best get this over with."
I walked down the hallway, but my vision was being very strange. Everything was pulsating and crawling, and my head hurt a little bit. I ignored it, and checked the door on the left end of the hall. It was a small room, with a few dressers, a cupboard, and some old chairs. After I turned the room upside-down, I'd found two tinderboxes, and a large potion of oil. But when I checked the next room, it was a library, lit with only one candelabra.
"What the heck...?"
I looked on a small table near the door, and there was a little note on it.
"'Knowledge will open your path...' What the- Oh! I remember this! Just look for the books that are sticking out a bit... Sheesh, a puzzle, straight off the bat."
I ran my hands over the bookshelves, the light in the room helping my head, and I felt my vision beginning to regulate. I felt a book jutting out. When I pulled it, I heard a metallic clank, followed by the sound of chains on a pulley system. I rushed around the room, looking for more books, yanking them all off of the shelves, and after doing that for a little under a minute, I heard a loud BANG, and white washed over my vision, slowly fading out, and I saw one of the bookshelves sliding out of the way, revealing a large, stone passageway.
(Stop the music, listen to this now)
"Jackpot."
I headed down the passage, but it was almost pitch black, so I turned on the lantern, holding it out in front of me as far as my arm could extend. The hall slowly became narrower as I continued down it, to the point where I had to shuffle sideways to make any progress.
"Man, it's a bit of a tight squeeze... Who's the idiot who built this place?!"
After another five minutes of awkward shuffling, the passage opened into a small room with a door and a single torch for light. I put out the lantern, and opened the door a crack, looking through to the room beyond. It was a small meeting hall of sorts, with a slightly large table in the center, chairs strewn about the room. Someone, or something, had been busy tearing the place apart. There were a few paintings here and there, all crooked and torn. I headed in, and closed the door behind me.
"What a dump... Wait a second..." I looked out the window, and I saw... Pine trees. "OK, no way this is England, and that means I can't be in Brennenburg. So where am I? Asides from the obvious fact that I'm in my own mind. I'm both confused, and intrigued at the same time."
I looked back over the room again, but I didn't see anything useful. There weren't any doors, save for the one on the other side of the room, so I assumed I just had to pass through, which I did. Then, the room shook, and I almost fell over. The window shattered, meaning I had a way out.
"Oh hell yeah! I'm outta he-" I almost jumped straight out of the window, but when I looked down, I saw red, fleshy muck all over the ground, and forest stretching for miles around me. "... Alright, I guess I'm not going that way. Dammit- Wait, what's this?" I saw a small piece of paper sticking out of the bookshelf next to the desk I'd climbed over. I grabbed it, and skimmed over it.
Dear Diary,
I have finally convince Fluttershy to come in for testing and experimentation, promising her that she would be stronger, and able to defend herself if anything were to attack her. How very gullible of her. I plan on only making a few subtle changes, maybe giving her a new leg or two, and replacing her wings with those of a griffon, as their wings are larger and stronger than the wings of most pegasi. She will be the first of many experiments, all performed on those I call my closest friends. Imagine, all of the Elements of Harmony, made even better, through science! It will be wonderful, I'm sure of it. I must leave, and make necessary precautions for the surgery.
Twilight Sparkle
I stared at the paper, looking it over a few more times, unable to believe what was written on it. "Holy shit. Is this gonna be the 'crazy-ass doctor' scenario? Knowing my mind, it will..." I let out a sigh, and slipped the paper into my jacket's inside pocket.
"This is gonna be a long day..."
That's right. No monsters... At least, not yet. I think you have a pretty good idea of what, or should I say, who the monsters are going to be, though... Holy hell, I really am insane... All I can say is, when I start encountering said monsters... Please don't hunt me down and kill me. Please. But, in all seriousness, this is going to be similar to Amnesia in the sense that it has a slow beginning, but then picks up over time. So... Enjoy it, dammit!

Sweet! First!
Oh dear. This cannot be good. Curse Torrie and his slightly pathetic evilness!
ooooooh!!! More Amnesia! It's awesome!
Mm.. I'm going to enjoy the gore, provided it is of good quality of course
Else I'll have to make some of my own gore...
Damn Torrie....you and your swag.
i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/183/376/68236%20-%20poster%20rainbow_dash%20swag.jpg
It's Amensia w/o the gore after all k12314 would have to add a gore tag if that's the case and he wouldn't do that he'd lose to many new readers that way
oh.. Nice one there! I'm gonna love seeing this progress..
~Parajack
Amnesia? It could be worse...
*starts to remember REC and shudders*
Amazing chapter as always and with most fic I read this one is excellent I give thee 5 out of 5 moustaches
oh and a wy wub woo face 
Torrie should have caused you a temporary amnesia so you only ramember the worst things, and not anything from outer world.
Oh shi... hey i have bag of milkyways. But yeah i'm gonna start reading these while it's still light outside and not in the middle of night like I usually do.
At least Pinkie isn't making cupcakes.
Att least it is not in a cupcake scenario
...
...
*shudder*
Oh and one more thing Ha I laugh at your insanity
Well, in the case of subconsciousness, i would have expected silent ponyville, but amnesia works too.
You know... this is probably going to remind me of the amnesia justine pony voice overs I heard over the internet not too long ago... Pinkie was scariest :/
"TWILIGHT... STOP HIDING! YOU'LL LIKE WHAT I HAVE PLANNED"
Im looking forward to the pinkie scene kyle...
-"The Dark Descent"
Ononononono. You're joking. You're LYING; making me think this is something it's NOT.
"I was in some old, musty room, with cobblestone walls, and a wooden floor."
OH DEAR CELESTIA WHY
...Right. ....Torrie, there's this wonderful little song that Kyle is going to start singing when he comes across you...
"I'm about to kick somebody's ass....Ohhoo I'M about to kick somebody's ass.... If you don't leave me alone...you're gonna have to send me hooome... 'cause I'M about to kick somebody's ass...."
...Just sayin' it, Torrie. You're askin' for a whuppin...
I've never played amnesia but I've heard enough to know one thing..... there's a shitstorm brewing
YOU CAN'T FORGET THE SAFE ROOM & SAFE AMBIENT
Cliche much, Torrie?
Well, Ominus is chilling in the LTD Equestria, so you're on your own, Mr. Bucy
.
whats amnesia heard of it but what the hell is it
I wonder what ending your gonna go with.
375578
One of the most terrifying horror games ever made. No, seriously, I don't even consider it a game. I consider it CONSTIPATION AID.
375256
... Don't be too sure of it... But I'm not gonna have it be too- Oh who am I kidding, bro, some of the shit I have planned... Oh dear GOD I'm a terrible person.
You ever played a custom map? They legitimately place stuff EXACTLY where you expect them to scare you
375896
Not all of them. I forget the name of the Custom Story, but it had these suits of armor that acted EXACTLY like Weeping Angels, and if you so much as touched them, you took damage. And they would be aligned perfectly like a maze that's just too damn narrow. It was scary as hell, lemme tell ya.
375578 let's just say.. it's a scary game.. everyone i saw play the game was like "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH"
whenever they encounter a monster
375902 I think I seen that one somewhere, I remember a level that had a bunch of internet memes in it. (If I find it i'll let you know)
As well as one that had a long dark tunnel that bombarded me with teleporting objects, poofers, and breaking doors.... really shouldn't be playing at 1am, but it's so fun!
376004
Seriously. Why is it so fun to make myself shit enough bricks to build my own apartment complex?
376073 On the bright side you can rent it to others and make a profit
)
Found one called Can't Remember
And the more Funny Custom Story featuring memes! (Start it at 6:00 min)
Both are played by the same commentor
(Who if you saw the differance between his first Amnesia videos and his current video's he's a little.....
Amnesia? Oh fuck you, you just had to base your next few chapters on a game I am totally frightened of, and still havent finished.
376314 I never tought I would laugh so hard at amneisa in my entire life.
Happily the only survival horror games In play are resident evil. pre-RE4. Hahaha.... shit, I would be fighting zombies, mutants, and Nemesis. FUCK
*takes long drag of cigar*
Let's get this over with.
I imagine everyone will "love" Pinkie's segment. Not to mention Twilight's.
Heh heh.
Oh damn, this is going to be terrible. Don't get me wrong its the good kind of terrible but terrible none the less...
376073 Shit bricks till your apartment is full
DEAR SWEET JESUS WHATS THAT BEHIND YOU?!
i sware if i see necro morphs i am gonna flip mah shit xD NOTHING FUCKING SCARES ME MORE THEN DEAD SPACE!
I NEED TO LOG IN MORE OFTEN! I MISSED FIVE FREAKIN CHAPTERS! GOD DAMN! Oh and the chapter is pretty epic as well. Let's hope Kyle's body doesn't go "Kaput". I'm also thinking of buying Amnesia as well. I als- (Fluttershy: Marcos. Kevin just came out of the hospital today. (Me: Awesome. Get Ginna and the others and lets go say hello to him. (Fluttershy: Hey Ginna, Rainbow Dash, Anna, Twilight, and Pinkie Pie! Get off the couch! We're going to see Kevin, you know, if you want to. (Me: Try to guess what happened last night. (Fluttershy: Marcos. They won't get off the couch. (Me: Gotta go *grabs blowhorn* WAKE YOUR LAZY ASSES UP!
~~~~~~ FLUTTERSHY IS BEST PONY
oh pissing blimey theres jam comming outta the walls!!!!!!!
sorry had to quote Zero Puncuation there.......
I found a mistake... Right at the very beginning, it says "CHAPTER 42", even though it's Chapter 44!
Also, you are bringing back terrible memories of me played Amnesia.
Welp, I guess I ain't sleeping tonight!
380618
Are you freakin kidding me- UGH! That's what I get for writing at 5am...
... Something tells me I'm gonna be hiding under a blanket with "Giggle at the Ghosties" on repeat pretty soon...
*takes one look at title*
375193
NO! NO IT ISN'T! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I'VE SUFFERED!
382096
Amen.
Wow, thanks for the Silent Hill moment. Chills...
Was this idea from Amnesia's custom story The Small Horse? *SHUDDER*
