>You are an amputee.
>Whatever that may be and all that it entitles.
>It has been two weeks since your operation.
>You had lost both your legs.
>No longer can you walk or run.
>No longer can you get yourself around the house and streets.
>The doctors and nurses always had to cart you around or lift you up.
>And those doctors and nurses were always so nice to you.
>No matter what the situation was.
>Using the bathroom was always humiliating. . .
>Having one of the doctors lift you onto the toilet seat, then lift you back onto the cart. . .
>The first time that had happened, you cried that night.
>”Is this your life now?” you would ask yourself, “I… I Can’t live like this! I CAN'T!”
>Regardless of what you said, you continued to live.
>And everyday was better than the last.
 
>The doctors and nurses always encouraged you when you felt down.
>”You can do it Anon!” or,  “You can overcome ANY obstacle!”
>Their words were the only thing you held onto.
>Words that you can never forget anytime soon.
>Then one day, the doctors put you through some physical therapy.
>The physical therapy was possibly the most toughest thing you’ve gone through your entire life.
>Every morning was it’s own fiasco...
>Waking up to find blood soaked sheets from your legs.
>Or having intense pain and bruises on your leg stumps.
>Your arms were pretty sturdy.
>Crawling wasn’t too bad.
>Soon, you could use the restroom without any help.
>If felt amazing.
>Like overcoming a great disaster.
>No longer did you have to call a nurse or doctor to assist you.
>Things were looking up.
>Then, your main specialist, asked you a question that would change everything.
 
>”Anon we have a prosthetics program that I’d like for you to attend. You don’t have to rush into it, but I’d at least like for you to check it out.”
>He hands you a pamphlet that had a man with two prosthetic legs, smiling, and running.
>”Of course! I’ll look into it.” you almost screamed
>You knew about prosthetics, you even asked your nurse if you were able to get them.
>The nurse was unsure, so you kept it quiet.
>As soon as you wheeled yourself back to your room with your new wheelchair, you accessed the hospital’s computer
>That whole night, you were looking into different legs and imagined yourself with them.
>All you could see was your own future, and how amazing it looked.
>The new physical therapy looked difficult, but you think you could muscle through it.
>You just have to “believe in yourself, you can overcome any obstacle and any situation! You just need to believe!”
>It was hard to go to sleep that night.
 
>When your main doctor asked if you were sure if you wanted to go through this operation, you told them that you were never more sure in your life.
>You had poured almost all of your money into it.
>A week had passed, and everything was set up.
>You wheeled yourself to the table, and hopped onto it smiling.
>”I haven’t seen a patient wheel themselves in so happy before!” the doctor chuckled
>You scratched the back of your head and smiled.
Just excited is all, heh.
>The doctor laughed with you.
>A nurse walked in with one of your legs.
>One of the coolest things you’ve ever seen.
>Another nurse walked in with the other one.
>You were pumped.
>”My, my Anon… Lets not have you bouncing off the table!” one of the nurses insisted, “Now lay down, this is going to take a while.”
>The doctor hands you a mask to place over your mouth.
>”Alright Anon, you are about to get re-”
>You couldn’t even hear the rest of what he was saying.
>You were out like a light.
 
 
 
 
 
~ Chapter 1: Believe ~
 
>Believe.
>That is all that you need to do, Anon!
>You can make anything possible.
>Anything.
>Anything…
>You… You hear something.
>Someone is screaming.
>Loud.
>”DOCTOR WHAT IS THAT?! WHAT IS HAPPENING?!”
>”GET AWAY FROM IT!”
>”DOCTOR! ANON IS GETTING DRAGGED IN!”
>Your head was throbbing.
>And your vision was blurry.
>You could see red.
>An outline of the doctor and nurses.
>Everything else was black.
>”ANON TAKE MY HAND!”
>Hand? What hand?
>”ANON NO! PLEASE! JUST TAKE MY HAND!”
>Your body was numb
>You couldn't reach out, even if you wanted too.
>Everything began getting darker.
>And darker.
 
>You could hear rain splashing and hitting the ground.
>Flashes of white hit you in the eyes.
>The splashing of rain began to get louder.
>It smelled like mud and rain.
>It felt like you were outside.
>You began to cough.
>Instinctively, you raise your hand to-
Blood. BLOOD. WHAT IS HAPPENING, DOCTOR?!
>Rain was beating on your face and body.
>Most of your body was numb.
>You look down to where you legs might have been.
>Blood was streaming out of the leg stumps.
No. NO. AHHHHH! SOMEBODY HEEEELP ME! AAAHHH!
>Your head was getting light.
>Mud and blood were everywhere.
>Everything was cold.
>You bit your bottom lip and grasped your left leg.
>You squeeze and wrap it with the scrub you were wearing.
>The right leg was covered in mud and looked black.
>You began to feel out of breath.
>With what little you had left in your lungs, you let out a screech that even the heavens could hear.
>You fall into mud and black out.
 
~Twilight’s Castle~
>”Ugh… It’s SOOO boring around here Twilight. Why did the Pegasi have to make TODAY rain?! If it were up to me, I’d have it at least rain something… Better!” Discord moans.
>”Not right now Discord, I think I am on to something…” Twilight snaps, “I felt a large chunk of magic being used… And I just… Need to… Pin where it is…!”
>Twilight sits on her throne with her eyes shut, and her horn glowing.
>Discord slithers around the ceiling and taps his claws on the light bulb.
>”Ugh… THERE! I found it.”
>Discord summons a map in front of Twilight.
>She stops her magic and looks at the map.
>”How did you-”
>”Years of practice, m'dear.”
>Discord removed the light bulb and crawls inside of the socket.
>”Alright, I better check it out. Make sure Spike goes to sleep on time!”
>Spike walks into the room confused.
>”Who was she talking to?” Spike asks, “I don't see-”
>A large demonic beast arises from Spike’s shadow.
>”BOO!”
>All the color in Spike’s face drains as he falls back unconscious.
>Discord resumes his normal form.
>”Now, off to sleep we go widdle widdle dwagon!”
 
>”Alright, Discord’s map says it should be around here.”
AAHHHHHH
>”Oh no! I hope nop0ny is hurt!”
>Twilight lets out her wings and begins to fly towards the sound.
>”I’m coming, don’t worry!”
SOMEBODY HEEEELP ME! AAAHHH!
>”Oh no…”
>Twilight fires a beam into the clouds.
>A small hole is made within the clouds, revealing the ground.
>Twilight flies onto the ground.
>”Hello?” Twilight asks, “Is anyone here?”
>She notices something shining.
>With her magic she raises it up to the light.
>”A leg?” Twilight ponders, “What is a leg doing out here?”
>There was another one on the ground.
>She levitates them onto her back.
>Twilight fires another beam into the sky.
>Even more light reveals the area.
>”Oh no…”
>She spots your body.
>”No no no no…”
>She places you inside of a bubble of magic.
>”Hold on , I’ll help you!”
>She fires a large beam into the sky, clearing out that entire area.
>”Don’t worry, I’ll save you. You just have to believe in me.”
>You both teleport back to her castle.
 
>”Discord! I need your help!” Twilight yells while running through the doors.
>She places you onto a table.
>”This will do for now… DISCORD?!”
>Discord comes out of the ceiling lights.
>”What do you need me fo- EEEHHH?? What is a human doing here?! Ewww, why is he all…”
>Discord flies over to the table where you lay.
>He ducks down and comes back dressed as a nurse.
>”Doctor Twilight!”
>Twilight rolls her eyes, and begins to unwrap the wound.
>It began to bleed again.
>Twilight quickly closes it with magic.
>”I need something to seal it.”
>Discord hands Twilight a baby seal.
>”DISCORD!”
>”Fine, you never let the nurse have any FUN!”
>Discord reaches into a first aid kit he made appear out of nowhere.
>”Here we go!”
>He hands Twilight a zipper.
>Twilight began to get furious.
>”If YOU aren't going to help, then LEAVE!”
>She looked at Discord angrily.
 
>Blood began to spill out of the magic.
>”Oh no!” Twilight screams, “NO NO NO!”
>”Here Twilight,” Discord says calmly, “I’ll fix it.”
>Discord summons a sewing machine and it sews up your legs.
>”There.” Discord says, dressed as an old lady, “Just like how mamma did it!”
>Twilight looks at Discord slightly confused.
>”Thanks Discord… I shouldn't have shouted.”
>”It fine Twilight. Really, its fine.”
>They both look at you.
>”What are we going to do with… You said human, right?”
>”Right. A human. Haven’t seen one of these bad boys for…”
>Discord puts a claw to his chin.
>He pondered for a moment.
>”Three? No, FIVE! No… A long time ago.”
>Twilight used her magic to close the front door.
>”Do you know anything about them?”
>She sits on a chair she pulled up with her magic.
>Discord scratches his chin.
>”Of course! I mean… Not at all… I mean…”
>”Discord, are you hiding something?"
>”Well, hehe, you see Twilight… Eh… Humans are…”
>Discord pulls down a screen and turns himself into an old projector.
>3...2...1...
 
>”A LOOONG time ago, humans and ponies lived together peacefully.
>A poorly drawn picture of a human and a pony were on the screen.
>“They overcame challenges”
>What looked like monsters were on the screen fighting a pony and human.
>”Hardships”
>A sad human and pony were on the screen.
>”And even [spoiler]LOVE[/spoiler]d one another.”
>A pony was standing on top of a human who was on all fours.
>”But one day… They all vanished.”
>The single pony was on the screen alone.
>”And no pony knew why… The End.”
>The screen rolled back up and disappeared.
>Discord returned to his original form.
>”You see Twilight? It’s all just one big mystery!”
>”Then why didn't I read about any? There isn't a single book about humans!”
>Discord shrugs.
>”I guess we’ll just have to ask the human himself.”
>”Yeah.”
>They both look at you, completely confused.
>"When he wakes up..."
>"Yeah..."
