Chapter Ten: Weirdness & Ancient Shadows
Groaning quietly as my capacity to process reality returned, my eyes didn't stop rolling around in my head for several seconds and I felt things I was not expecting. Why exactly I felt like I had a large bar pressed against my stomach as if I were...
Chapter Two: Awake Enough To Be Startled (edit 3/27/2015)
Apart from a few brief moments of disturbed sleep, when I was able to be woken, from hospital staff checking in on my roommate and myself, I seemed to have woken somewhere around mid-afternoon the next day. The first thing I can say I noticed was a...
Chapter Eighteen: Forward Motion
Fate was toying with me and Twilight. It had to be that. This stuff couldn't possibly happen to us with so much frequency to be normal. At least I hoped our normal wasn't normal. A well and truly flabbergasted Celestia stammered, "B-but...said m-my...
Chapter Seventeen: Things We Can Forget (edit 3/20/2015)
With a slow and steady drift of awareness, I found myself becoming aware in the dream as a familiar sight greeted my unmoving eyes. Spread out as far as I could take in was a vast wild. A dense forest of huge trees with faintly twisting dual and triple...
Chapter Sixteen: Secret Reminders
(A/N: This chapter is from a third-person perspective. Usual 'in-head' approach continues next chapter.) She stared at the note with bemusement the only remaining response. The disbelief, incredulity, and even annoyance had all run their course and...
Chapter Fifteen: Revelation (edit 11/18/2014)
I gazed quietly out the large window of Twilight's old observatory, not really thinking about much of anything. Twilight was snuggled up against my chest as we both watched the world drift along outside as we lay stretched out on blankets and pillows...
Chapter Fourteen: Test Results (edit 10/31/2014)
The squeal of brakes and hiss of steam rang through the air as our train came to a stop at the station in Canterlot. After dealing with the lingering anxiety of what the royal summit was really for amongst ourselves, we were finally here. The public...
Chapter Thirteen: Wings & Other Things
It was a rather peculiar feeling, walking down the road alone as I was. Even after the long minutes I'd been strolling along already. I'd gotten so used to having Twilight beside me or at least in the same room at almost every moment of the day that...
Chapter Twenty-Six: The Weight Of Implications
_(Perspective change to 3rd)_ Celestia stared out the window for a long time after Twilight and Vojin left, worry on her mind and a deep frown upon her face. She thought of how much was coming together now, how there were so many things aligning...
Chapter Nine: A Good Match
I grumbled a bit, the knocking just wouldn't stop and I doubted I would be allowed to fall back to sleep until answering whomever was at the blasted door. Twilight gave her own grumble, nudging me to finally just deal with the interruption. Slowly...
Chapter Eight: Of Souls and Secrets (edit 9/16/2015)
As I moved through the motions of one of my simpler kung fu forms, I couldn't stop myself from drifting in thought. I often let my mind wander while I had a spare mental moment, doing what I could to take in everything that had happened since arriving...
