> My OC's Journey > by Swatriot > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Hatchling > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digital woke up in a watery place. He breathed, because that what comes naturally, he felt liquid flow down his throat and in to his lunges. Digital started panicking, He was drowning, drowning. His vision was going dark when he herd a lighting of a horn, he felt as if he was being puled out of this nightmare of a place. He gave in to it, let it pole him to the outside. The thing that held him burst open, spewing green liquid every where. A Soft voice said something to him, but he couldn't pay attention to it. he was so glad he was alive. then something kicked him in the chest. Pain Surged through his upper body. The voice spoke again "Get on your feet child." It said. "My name is Midnight." Midnight said. "What... what is this place? Where am I!" Digital said. He was terrified, he just came in to this world by a blue eyed, black unicorn. "It's the hatchling chamber. If you want to meet your fellow changelings, you have to get up first." said Midnight "By the way, whats your name?" "I don't recall it." Digital said. he looked behind him and saw thousands more pods, full of little changelings. He also noticed that he had no wings. He looked back at Midnight, She had wings. Why was that? Was it that you grew your wings when you get older? "Hello? Anyone there?" Midnight said while looking at the other pods of changelings. "Wha? what did you say?"Digital said. "I was just thinking about my wings." Midnight looked confused "Because I have none" Digital finished. "Just come with me" Midnight mumbled. So Digital got up and followed Midnight to a Arch way that looked like it held up more than 5 tons of stone. They went through a door into a large chamber. It had lots of books and light. There where changelings everywhere, ether reading, writing, or even sleeping on books. "This is the library" Midnight whispered. She then turned out of the room. It took Digital a few seconds to realize that Midnight was walking away. He ran after her. They turned into another core-door. Instead of it being full of changelings, There was just one changeling in the middle of the room, reading a book. "Queen Clover" Midnight said. The changeling Turned her gaze to us. "Yes midnight?" She said "Also who is this changeling you brought here?" She finished. "I am here to tell you that everything is alright today," Midnight said "Also his name is Digital, And he has no wings." She continued "Do we still have some Changelorite left?" she looked at a stone wall. "I think we have some left, so yes we do," Queen Clover said "also why do you need it?" She said while reading her book. "I was thinking we could have the smith make a pair of wings for him." Midnight said. Queen clover looked at her book before answering. "Maybe I might do it," Queen clover said. "Only on one condition though, you have to be his personal trainer and friend." Midnight called digital as she walked out of the chamber. "Your sleeping with me tonight." She said quietly > Lunar light > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digital woke up in a chamber full of carvings and paintings, with a glass roof. He was lying down on a soft wool carpet with a blanket made of grass. "Ah, your finally up" Midnight said "It's like noon." She look up at the sunroof. "So what happened?" Digital said, "Like what did the smith say?" He too look at the sunroof. "Well, he said that he would do it, if he got some silver." Midnight replied. "Do you want to learn about our history, in the library?" She continued. "Sure, I like to read" Digital replied. Then again he and Midnight went through the twists and turns of the hive, When they finally made it there it was almost supper time. Digital started to find a book to read, he found one Titled: "equestrian lands" he started to read the first part of it. He finished chapter after chapter, getting more of a liking to it as he read, He learn that their were 3 Races in Equestria: "Unicorn, Pegasus, and earth pony", They had these things called "Friendship" and "Harmony" He like reading it, finding out what went on in this Mysterious fantasy world. "Digital, it's time for you to get to bed." Midnight Called out as she was leaving the library. "Fine" Digital muttered, He didn't really want to stop reading though he was tired, he wanted to learn more about this "Equestria" place. "You are going to sleep in Cyro's Chamber, He will meet you in the hatchling Chamber." Midnight Announced. Digital then made his way through the twisting tunnels and finally made it to the hatchling chamber. There were full grown changelings every where. How was he going to find This so called "Cyro". He started to look for this changeling. He asked the adult changelings,and they said they didn't know who this Cyro was. When he asked everyone he started to give up. No one knew who "Cyro" Was. He started to leave, when he noticed a changeling in the back corner. He started to walk closer to the changeling, he kept noticing that the changeling was a kind of Ice White. He didn't look like a changeling at all. He did not have transparent wings like the others changeling. He had a horn of white, and eyes of blue and red, he also had a mane of a midday sun, but his eyes looked mechanical and so did his legs. "Hello Digital" He said "I am cyro, the only real mech you will see" Cyro Continued "Nice to meat you?" Digital said hastily "Also what do you mean by "Only real mech You will ever see"?" Digital Continued Hastily backing away. "She didn't tell you? Well Midnight Built me and she kept me secret, so no one knows about me."Cyro Said confused. "Please come with me to my quarters" Cyro then started walking to a wall of stone. "Wait! Your going to get your self injured!" Digital Warned him. Suddenly the wall opener and a entrance to a room appeared. "come on Digital," Cyro said "do you want to see the stars?" Cyro continued Digital nodded and followed him in to the room. It was big, bigger than the queens room, spare parts of metal were scattered every were there was even a balcony, Digital had saw on of these in the queens room. He stepped out side for the first time in his life. He saw tiny little Dots in the sky. There was also a big sphere in the sky. The sky was dark. "Isn't it wonderful?" Cyro said calmly from behind digital. "Luna's light is just so calming isn't it?" Cyro finished, Still looking at the stars. "I like it, it is really calming." Digital Agreed. Something flashed in the sky, then another. "What was that?"Digital asked scared. "I don't really know" Cyro said with a worried expression on his mechanical face. "We need some shut eye" Cyro said as he walked back in to they room. Digital soon followed. He found a soft bed for him in the back corner. It looked like it han't Been used in years. Digital laid down and fell asleep instantly. He dreamed of Equestria and how it would look like. He was surprised when he met a half unicorn and half peguses. She was vary tall, With a starry main, and dark blue skin. "Hello little pony," She said while looking sweetly at digital. "I sensed that you have a loving of the night. Not many have that love." She said with sweet smile. "Who are you?" Digital said confused, "You don't look like my queen." He finished looking if there was a way to get away from this unknown changeling. "Well my little pony, I am not a queen at all." She said with a starry smile. "I am not a pony" Digital said Half scared. "I am a changeling, not a pony" Digital finished. Digital woke up at that moment to a bright sky full of noises, Bird chirps, Wind rushing through the grass, and wings buzzing, Thousands of wings buzzing. He look around trying to pinpoint where they sound was coming from. "Digital!" Something whispered "Get down, Now" The voice said urgently. Digital obeyed and got behind the bed. "Cyro, Where are you?" Digital asked behind the bed, still trying to find out what was happening. "Right next to you" Cyro said. Digital looked to the left, and there he was, just siting there crouched down as low as he can be. "Wha...mmmm" Digital tried to say as Cyro put his hoof in his mouth. "Sh, I'll tell you later." Cyro hissed as he pushed digital on to the goround. "Just stay Quiet!" Cyro finished. > Learning secrets > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the buzzing faded, Cyro started to get up and look around. "I think it's safe now," he said "Follow me, Quietly." he added as he got up, Digital got up quietly and started to trot beside Cyro's mechanical body, they went to the balcony, Cyro started to climb down the cliff side, Which by now had turned in to stairs. "Wait, what is happening?" Digital asked urgently, not under standing what was going on. "Midnight want you to be safe and make it of having a 0% chance of being taken in to war" Cyro explained "And she needed to protect you from the other changelings," he added, still going down the stairs with digital right behind him. "Wait, why would she had to protect me from the other changelings?" Digital asked. They were a the bottom of the cliff by now and they started down hill to a river, Digital looked up and saw that there balcony was hidden behind one-way glass. "And why is your room hidden?" Digital added, wondering why this was happening. "You were interested in Equestria, But that is actually the place where we are going to war, Because Clover Said we needed food." Cyro answered "Also She needed to hide me because I work for Princess Luna, She is the ruler of the night." Cyro Explained. Digital remembered his dream of the Dark blue Half unicorn and half Pegasus pony. "Wait, Is the princess Dark blue?" Digital Asked, they were nearly to the rive, Cyro looked around nerves then replied "Yes, Yes she is." They had made it to the river. "We have to cross it." Cyro yelled over the roar of the Currants. "How are we going to cross that?!?" Digital asked half Confused half scared. "I have built a tunnel under it" He Called from ahead of digital. "It's right here" He added as he pulled a rock attached to a string. A rock lowered in to the ground and exposed a opening to a lighted tunnel. "Come on!" Cyro said, Digital and Cyro both crawled in to the tunnel. The door closed behind them loudly. "You have way to MUCH free time." Digital commented looking around, Amazed at how much stone Cyro had chipped away. "Way, Way too much." Cyro agreed. The roar of the currents now was a soft whistle of air in the tunnel. They sprinted through the tunnel and made it to the other side. A trap door above them opened up and let in sunlight and fresh air. The current was back to a roar when they exited. They climbed out and started to take a trail though a dark forest. As they walked through the forest Cyro kept looking around nervously and trotted a little faster at every little noise. "What's wrong?" Digital asked Cyro looked around one last befor answering, "She is close, I can feel it." He said hastily, Digital looked around. "Who, who is close?" Digital was still scared, Just as he finished the last word, a female pony jumped out of nowhere. "The Equestrian rebel" Cyro finally replied as she stood there, with a sickly smile on her face. > Equestrian Rebel > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The rebel was a female pony with long Light blue hair, deceiving brown eyes, she also had a full body suit of the color black, and she had a dagger that fit perfectly around her right hoof. "Digital, Run!" Cyro ordered digital, as he put himself in front of digital to block The rebel. Digital started to run right in to the dense forest He herd terrible screams and laughter, plus he herd something chasing him. Chasing him deeper in to the forest. "Stop, I won't hurt you" Said a female voice, But digital didn't stop he just kept running, until he ran out of stamina. The thing that was chasing him stopped in front of his face and said, "It's ok, I won't let anyone hurt you". Digital didn't trust it and backed away, his vision was blurred because of the adrenalin, his back hit a tree. "Oh no, I am going to get killed" Digital thought. He felt a sharp pain in his leg, and then every thing went black. Digital woke to a fire crackling and him on the ground. "Your awake!" Said a sweet voice, it sounded happy, which scared him half to death. His vision was clearing now, he saw the she-pony that jumped Him and Cyro in the forest. "Wait, Where is Cyro?!?" Digital thought out loud. They she-pony looked at him with a curious look on he face. "Who, now?" She asked. Digital knew not to give answers to random ponies. "Come on now, Don't tell me you can't talk now." She said with a sigh. "I... I can talk, I'm just scared." Digital replied, "I am so stupid." He thought, He knew not to give information to strange ponies like her. She walked to digital and put a hoof on his chin, to lift his face to meet hers. She looked at him with a comforting glint in her eyes. "Come on, talk to me." She said in a sweet Protecting voice. "Well she is nice and all," Digital thought, pondering the idea about telling her about everything "No, I have to keep it together, Don't get tricked in to telling her everything!" Digital countered his thought. "Fine then, I'll let you rest for a little while longer." She said as she blew a powder in to his face, digital started to feel drowsy , "No, I must fight it!" He thought, "must fight it, fight it, fight~" Digital said while he fell asleep. Digital woke up to movement, he started to regain his sight, again, he look around, trying not to move to much. He saw that he was being carried by the she-pony, they were o a trail leading to a small shack made of cobblestone. Smoke was bellowing from the chimney, the she-pony opened the door and walked in, she laid him down in a cot made out of wool. She sighed "I know you are awake." She said with a sad voice. Digital got up and walked over to her. "Who are you, Where am I and what happened to my friend?" Digital asked in a soft, hasty, voice, being careful not to piss her off again. "Your friend is dead, I killed him because he made you run, your special to me." She said in a soft, sad, voice. "You are in my shack in the middle of the woods, near the town, "Ponyville" and My name is Razorsong, but my mom used to call me razor." Razorsong said still with a glint of sadness in her eyes. "Why am I special to you?" Digital asked confused. He walked around the room taking everything in, paintings on the wall, of Razorsong and midnight together. "Wait what?" Digital thought "why is midnight in these pictures?" Digital asked Razorsong. "She is my mother, and before she left for war, she told me to shut down Cyro, even though he was like a brother to me, and keep you from harms way." She answered with a glint of protection and comfort in her voice. "You are my real brother" Razorsong said. Digital couldn't believe it, "She, the equestrian rebel, Is my sister?!?!" Digital thought surprised. "How... How is this possible??" Digital asked, he was scared even though he knew an answer was coming. "Midnight is our mother." She replied.
