The 5th Alicorn

Part 6

That night, I had a dream.

I was just a filly, in the kitchen with my mom, making daffodil sandwiches. She was telling a funny story about dad, making me laugh quite often.

Just then, dad walks in and says to me, "Hey ColorWing? Can you please go up to your room for a bit? I need to talk to your mother."

"Okay daddy!" I say, then trotting away to my room. I stayed there for a bit, reading books and practicing spells. Pretty soon, I got bored. I tried to play with my stuffed animals, but I got tired of it. So, I walked out of my room.

I wandered up and down the halls, trying to find something to do. Then, I stumbled apon a door at the end of the hallway. It was old and looked like it haven't been opened in a hundred years. Out of curiosity, I opened it and it made a big creak. On the other side of he door, it had old wooden stairs leading up to the attic.

Daddy said never go up to the attic. I thought. But he's talking to mommy right now so...

I looked side to side, then I ran up stairs and closed the door with my magic behind me.

I walked up the creaky stairs, being slightly frightened of the darkness. Then, I got to the top and coughed. Wow, it's dusty up here. I searched around, not finding anything really interesting. Then, I felt a sudden urge to do something. On instinct, I turned around and walked towards a a small box. I couldn't stop myself.

Once I got close, I opened the box up and the ground started rumbling. I snapped out of the trance, getting frightened. Then, a black whirlpool started forming from the box. I tried to run away, but the whirlpool caught me and sucked me up.

"Mommy!!" I yelled, right before I was swallowed up by darkness.

()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

I woke up and screamed. Then, I looked around, remembering I was in FireHearts house. I took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

That was the scariest say if my life. I thought. I never want to think about it again.

Then, a blinding white light shone in front of me. I closed my eyes, then opened them, only to find i was in the Everfree forest.

"Why am I here?" I whispered to myself.

"Oh, I know why your here." A mare's voice chuckled.

I gasped. "W-who's there?"

"Only your worst nightmare."

"What? But I'm not scared of anything except.... Oh no..."

"Oh yes!" The voice yelled. Then, something pounced on me, a pony as dark as night.

I shrieked, scared for my life, and others.
