A mare was running through Ponyville in a hurry to get home. Everyone was busy having a party for the towns' heroes, the elements of harmony, for they have just saved everyone from a horrifying creature. The group of ponies that the mare hated was getting thanked for something anyone can do. The young mares vibrant hot pink eyes were filled with pain and agony, and her tears blurred her vision. She just kept running, ignoring everyone and everything. The only thing she heard was her sharp breaths and pounding hooves. The only thing that she was thinking about was the painful memories that have replayed in her mind since her childhood.

When the mare was just a filly, a stranger had sent a diary through the mail. It was a fairly normal diary, with its white and blue striped design, but the young unicorn fell in love with it from the moment she laid eyes on it. She didn't know who the pony who sent her the gift was. Maybe it wasn't even a pony. But the fact that she didn't know just made her happier. Someone who she didn't know, sent her a present. An on her birthday of all days! Never before has the young filly ever received a present. Her parents never made an effort to remember things to do with her. All they did was provide her with basic needs such as a shelter, clean clothes and food and water. Giving her everything she needed, but not what she wanted. She didn't feel loved, or needed at all.

When she first got the diary, she started writing in it immediately. She wrote about all her secrets, fears, thoughts and feelings. But very rarely did she write about any exciting things that happened. She felt like she could write anything in that diary. She considered it a friend. Whenever she wrote in her diary she would always start the entry with the words dear Mystery, pretending she was writing to that pony that gave her the diary.

A few months after receiving the diary the young unicorn applied to Celestia's school for gifted unicorns. Her parents barely helped with the application process other than the parts where parents or guardians are required to sign something, so the poor filly had to do it by herself at such a young age.

Shortly after the application was completed, the filly took the entrance exam. She did quite well at first but then she realized something. Her parents weren't there with her. Surely her parents wouldn't be so horrid that they would completely forget about the most important time of her life, right? Wrong. Sadness and rage took hold of the young unicorn's heart and she broke into tears in the middle of the exam, making her unable to finish her task and guaranteeing that her application to the school would be denied.

Once she got home she walked straight to her room with an emotionless face and slammed the door shut. She started packing the small amount of belongings she had and exited the room with a bag. She walked downstairs to where her parents were having a conversation and immediately they stopped.

"Why?" The filly whispered. "Why?" She said once more.

"Speak up! You know it's impolite to mumble when speaking to an adult." Said the mother narrowing her eyes. "And what did we say about not speaking until you're spoken to?!" Yelled the father angrily.

Tears started flowing down her face. "Why didn't you show up?"

The parents looked at each other confused. "Showed up to what?"

The young filly smiled to herself slightly. Not a happy smile, that's for sure. "I knew it." She whispered under her breath, but it was still audible. She started to laugh slightly. Then her quiet laugh turned to a chuckle. Then to a giggle. The she started laughing hysterically. "Of course you didn't remember! Why would you? You haven't ever tried to remember anything important regarding me!" She started running towards the door with her bag. She got to the door and was about to open it. "Carnation! Get back here right now!" The mother screamed furiously. "No! You two are horrible people and horrible parents!" Shouted Carnation, and left the house slamming the door, leaving her parents in a state of confusion and shock.
