//------------------------------// // Neocros and the Unicorn // Story: Samneo: The Earth Pony // by Samuel-Neocros //------------------------------// “... what...? what am I...?” The dragon looked around. He was in a room that had different shades of pink everywhere. He felt lonely, like something was missing from his heart. The dragon kept walking forward, not knowing where he’s suppose to go. After all, there was no map. His thoughts were filled with questions, but it also had the desire to find answers. He noticed a flash of light at the corner of his right eye. He turned around, and saw a familiar unicorn. “Neocros...” She said. The dragon blinked. The unicorn witnessed a textbox appear in front of the water dragon. The text read: “Neocros...? Oh.. right, I’m Neocros.” The unicorn smiled. “I’m glad you’ve remembered. You’ve lost some of your power, resulting in you having to speak via textbox.” She said. Neocros’ eyes widened. The textbox appeared again. “I’ve... lost my.. power?” “Yes, Sorsirina has taken most of your host’s memories. Because of that, you’ve lost your power. You’re inside a dream right now, and your host--Sam, has been hit with amnesia. So far, you’re not capable of breaking out of the egg that’s keeping you inside. But in time, once you’ve regained a bit of your power--you may surface from the egg, and be visible from the outside.” Neocros cocked his head to the side at the name Sorsirina. “Who is she...? Sorsirina?” Neocros asked via text. The unicorn was silent for a moment, but sighed. “Sorsirina is Sam’s Ex-girlfriend. She misses Sam, to the point where she’s willing to destroy everypony he loves in order to get him into her hands.” The unicorn explained. Neocros scratched the side of his head curiously. She stared at him while he was looking around nervously. The unicorn read Neocros’ thoughts, and found that he was now remembering something about Sorsirina. “You are remembering, are you?” “U-uhm...” Neocros shivered. The unicorn quickly apologized for seemingly being scary to the innocent, teen-aged dragon. “Oh.. well... I think I’ve seen Sorsirina.. when I awoke when Sam was in danger... in the past.” The unicorn’s eyes closed. “Yes, in that moment, Sam was going to be captured by Sorisirina. But then you came out, sensing your host’s fear. If Sam had became a mindless zombie to Sorsirina, you would have disappeared in an instant.” She explained once more. Neocros remembered that time vividly. He knew that the purple sorceress was a threat to his host. The thought alone was making Neocros rather uncomfortable. The unicorn knew this, and decided to stop talking about her. “So Neocros, at the moment, Sam has a small fragment of your power, which results in him taking on the illusion of a dragon.. before I go, I must let you know my name.” “Y-your name...?” “My name is Saverna.” “Oh...” Neocros rubbed his head slightly. “I’ll.. remember... that?” Neocros was then hit with a blinding light, and once the light subsided, Saverna had vanished. Neocros had a rather sad expression on his face at the sight. There was something about her that made him think. If he could anyway...
