Please open this gate, I'm drenched and it's really cold out here.” > Your voice is really ho(a)rse from all the shouting. > You see the beam of light stop for a second. > You hear footsteps nearing you. > It doesn't really sound like a human though. More like hoofsteps. > ”Is it a mounted patrol? Inside a castle?” you ponder. > This dream is getting weirder by the minute.     > The guard is almost in your sight. > He starts to speak: > ”How in the hay did you manage to get soaked and what business do you have at the-” > Your eyes hurt when the light suddenly hits them. > You finally see each other with only the gate between you. > A fucking talking horse with a light emitting forehead. > It interrupts itself when it sees you. > Must've been quite a sight. > You are all covered up in sand and grass when you struggled at the ledge few moments ago. > Your hair is wet and muddy and covering up most of your face. > Your only piece of clothing is your black long johns, that are also soaked and covered in sand and whatnot. > With your rasp voice you murmur the first words that come up to your mind. > ”What the hell is going on?”     > The horse looks you with eyes the size of dining plates. > Though it actually isn't horse now that you see it clearer. > It's too small to be a horse so you conclude it is a p0ny. > You also notice that it is wearing an armor set you feel like you've seen somewhere before. > Suddenly you figure it out. > Could this be.. a my little p0ny dream? > You get a stupid grin on your face. > It makes sense. > This was Canterlot Castle, but you didn't recognize it because it wasn't all that.. cartoony? > The guard though seems to be like in the tv show. > You are interrupted by the cold wind again. > You serious the fuck up. > Grabbing the gate in front of you, you look directly at the p0ny guard. > ”Open up.”   > No more frozen in fear, the guard starts to take steps backwards before suddenly deciding to leg it. >”IT'S A DEMON! DEMON AT THE MAIN GATE!” > Your hope of surviving the night vanishes in to the darkness. > You slump down on your knees, still holding the bars. > Surely you will wake soon from this nightmare. > Dream within a dream, what is this, Inception? > Minutes pass and you are debating if you should try tossing yourself past the ledge in this very real feeling dream.   > You lift your head as you hear multiple hoofsteps closing in. > ”It's over here Your Highness, this is where I-” > Yet again the guard interrupts himself when he sees you. > Other guards seem to follow the pattern of getting scared shitless. > Close to behind them is a royal looking, nightsky coloured pony. > Princess Luna. > ”Identify thyself, creature of night.” > You can't stop shaking because of the cold wind. > You cough up incase you can produce voice of some sort. > ”Human” > Luna gives you a really surprised look, but doesn't end up mute like the three guards behind her. > ”You there, go get Celestia even if you have to wake her up and tell her to come to the bathing area” > The guard seems to be more than happy to leave this sight and disappears back where they came from earlier. > She then motions the two other guards to open the gate.   > You crouch under the gate when it's open enough. > You are now facing Luna. > She motions you to follow her. > Neither of you say a word as you walk through corridors after corridors. > After a way too long walk you stop by a wooden door. > She goes on about stuff like washing yourself and after that answering questions about pretty much everything. > Well you weren't planning for this dream to go any further.   > Past the door you find a huge bath, about the size you see in public places. > You also spot a smaller tub near the back. > You wash off the dirt and make your way towards the small tub. > You are not sure how much time passed in this dream, but you feel dead tired. Again. > You slide in the tub. > It's warm. > Despite feeling tingly all over, you close your eyes and feel the sleep taking over.   End of part Uno.
