adventure Hidden In the Shadows

[Commander Frost 731]

Sophia woke up in bed. It was Sunday morning. Every Sunday her and her mother would go to Sugarcube Corner and have sundae. Just because it was sunday. She stretched in bed and looked around her room. Her books where on the floor, there were drawings on the wall of her and her younger sister, and her Daring Doo poster was on the ceiling. Just how she had left it when she went to bed last night. But something was different. She couldn't quite put her hoof on it, but there was something different. Her mother knocked on the door.

"Sweetie are you up?" She asked as she opened the door.

"Yes." Sophia said.

"Sophia?" Her mother said worriedly and looked at the bed.

"What?" She said.

"Sophia WHERE ARE YOU!?" Her mother said extremely worried.

"I'm Right HERE!" She shouted.

Her mother ran over and put her hoof on her daughter's bed looking around the bed. What scared Sophia is when her mother brough her hoof down on the bed, it went right through her leg.

"What!? How....Why!? Mom!!!" She said trying to hug her mother but passing right through her.

"Sophia, this isn't funny! Where are you!?" Her mother asked worriedly.

"I'm right here!!" Sophia said, but it was no use.

"Arieas! Sophia is gone!" She yelled to her husband.

"What!?" He yelled up the stairs.

Sophia cried. She wanted so badly to reach out and hug her mother. To comfort her. To let her know she was alright.

Suddenly the scene changed and she was sitting in the darkness In front of King Sombra.

"What! Where am I!?" She said.

"In lenient terms....your in pony hell with me! I've ripped you from the world!" He said laughing.

"Why!?"

"Because It's fun! And I need your energy to have enough power to take over the Crystal Empire!" He laughed maniacally.

"Let me go home!" She said.

"Sure thing Sophie." He said with an evil grin and she was back home, outside her front door.

 

~One week later~

She had given up on trying to show her family she was ok. She had no idea how to get back into what she called 'the normal realm'. She thought of herself as in a different world. He did say that he ripped her from her world. And nopony is able to see her. Hear her. Touch her. She realized how lonely the ponies that she ignored at her school felt. She was part of the ponies who ignored the weird ones. She now realized how they felt.

She walked through the streets sadly. Ponies passed through her, talking about their day, how cold it was, where they were going, not noticing her at all. This was the worst thing that could happen to her. She was so alone.....she sat in the cornor of a building outside and cried.

"I wanna go home....I wanna hug my mommy....." She said. The image of her crying mother as she hoped her daughter would come home popped in her head.

"Sophia.....where did you go......what did we do wrong?" Her mother said sitting on the couch holding Sophia's favorite stuffed pony from when she was a filly. She hugged it tightly and cried.

"Mom......mommy I'm sorry....." Sophia said.

Arieas came over and hugged her mother for comfort.

"Don't worry....we will find her...." He said comfortingly. Her mother just cried and hugged him.

That was one of the saddest day of her life. Sophia sat outside on the corner crying. She sat in a ball crumpled up in a little ball, not paying attention to what goes on around her.

"Why are you crying?" A colt asked her.

She ignored it thinking it was somepony talking to somepony else.

He thought she was to sad to reply. He frowned. He hated to see other ponies. Especially fillies. He sat next to her and hugged her.

-------------

He sat next to her and hugged her.

She was shocked. She looked up at him.

"You.....y-you can see me?" She said.

"Of course I can see you. Your right there." He said.

"But nopony else can see me." She said.

"I know the feeling. Sometimes it seems like nopony can see you and they ignore you, but-"

"No....you don't understand.....nopony can see me at all.....or hear me....." She said. she stood and walked into the road and about 3 ponies passed right through her.

She started crying again.

"I-I'm so alone...." She said.

He looked at her sadly as he walked over and pulled her out of the road. He hugged her tightly.

She didn't know this colt, but he was the only one who could see her.......and he was nice. She hugged himback crying. Then she realized that she was extremely tired. She hadn't slept in days. she slowly started drifting off to sleep in his arms. He smiled and picked her up and carried her to his house.

--------------

She woke up a few hours later laying in a bed. She was still tired, but she wanted to know where she was.

"Your awake." The colt said.

She turned to look at him.

He was a pegasus. Green fur and purple flaming mane and tail. He had blue eyes and pointed at the tip ears.

He looked at the snow white unicorn. She had a purple and blue swirl mane and tail with cyan eyes and a flower in her hair.

"Who are you?" She asked him.

"My name is Light Streak. What's yours?" He asked.

".....Sophia Heartwings....." She said cautiously. "How can you see me?"

"I don't know. Are you a......ghost?" He asked a bit scared.

"No. At least I don't think so. I was ripped from the world. Whatever that means." She said.

"How do you know?" He asked curiously.

"Some black and scary pony with a red horn told me." She said remembering it. "I miss my mom...." She said randomly.

He understood why. She could never be seen. Never be heard. Never be touched. It must be so lonely. He promised himself then and there that he would take care of her, since he was the only one who could see her. And.....he kinda liked her....

He looked at her sitting in his bed looking sad. He sat on the bed next to her.

"Do you know who the pony was?" He asked her.

"No....but I remember where he was. He was in the forbidden cave near the Crystal Empire. I remember because my grandma lives in the Crystal Empire, so I've seen everything about it." She said.

He wanted to help her. But the only way would be to go with her. But even if they went, what  would they do? If he can pull her out of the world, what else could he do?

 

LightStreak sat next to her wondering what to do. He looked over at his desk and saw his ink and quill he used to write letters to his grandmother and do schoolwork. He got an Idea.

"Why don't we tell Princess Celestia and Princess Luna!" He said.
