The Portal
She awoke with a start, the choking scent of smoke and mist swirling before her muzzle, and sucked into her lungs with each panicked breath. She could feel her hooves beneath her, but struggled to move them, her pale body pressed into the damp grass beneath her form. Wide grey eyes darted to the sights around her, but there was not much to be seen. Shadows and fog swirled, hiding anything that would give her an idea as to where she was. Slowly, with her muddled mind, Perrin started to pull herself to her hooves. She tripped and stumbled, legs flailing in all directions as she struggled to keep herself upright. A skip, hop, and a trip later, the young mare found herself face-first into the thick tree trunk. Her head pounded as she leaned against it, trying to find her bearing as she pulled herself back upright. Vines tangled with her hooves and across her back. It was almost as if this strange place didnt want her to leave.
Perrin took this moment to pause and think back to her last moments. She remembered her small camp fire, her journal at her side, sleepiness weighing down her eyelids. She had just finished a long day of work and had settled down at camp for the night. She remembered the sound of a snapping branch, but she didnt pay it any mind. It was normal for the forest to be noisy. She passed it off as a scurrying rabbit or passing deer. She remembered something grabbing her, a distinct smell filling her nostrils. And just like that, her world had turne black.
It was then that she heard the sound of hooves, her ears pricking and heart returning to its racing state. This time, especially in this new place, she was not going to ignore such sounds.
Wiggling her way free from the vines at her hooves, Perrin swiped up her traveling pack that had fallen from her harness as she ran. Her gait was sloppy, her hooves clumsy. She didnt know where she was going, but she knew she had to leave. Her breath heaved in her lungs with fear, her gaze wildly trying to pierce the fog that engulfed her. It was only then that she realized the glowing eyes that stared at her from the shadows.
Distracted by the floating eyes, she did not realize the figure standing before her. With an oof!, she collided with them, falling one again, to the ground.
