Legacy of the Alicorn's: prologue

It was a bright sunny day over the kingdom of Equestria, as everypony did their daily jobs, much of the kingdom, was still adjusting to their newly crowned, Princess Twilight Sparkle.

Her coronation was celebrated all across the kingdom, it had now been three months since that great day, and she was trying to adjust to the life of a Princess and an alicorn, despite being a part of the royal family, Celestia granted her permission to remain in PonyVille with her friends, and only to be called to Canterlot, when she was needed.

But there was something coming, something, not even the Princesses could expect, something that could change Equestria forever.

The stallion opened his eyes, and saw nothing but darkness, he found himself lying on his stomach, as his eyes started to refocus, he looked around, and saw himself lying inside some sort of cave, he pushed himself up on to his hooves, when he felt a sharp pain in his head, he placed his hoof on his head and began rubbing, trying to dull the pain.

After his eyes had fully adjusted, he looked around again, he couldn't remember anything, how he got there, "where am I?" he asked out loud, half expecting for somepony to answer, but he heard nothing, he saw a light coming from the far end of the tunnel, he could tell it was sunlight, and he began making his way there, his body felt weak, his throat was dry, and his stomach growled, as he walked, multiple times had had almost tripped and fell.

As he got closer he saw it was the exit to the cave, as he made his way faster over there, he came to the end of the tunnel, and walked out into the sunlight, the first look made him cover his eyes from the brightness, but his eyes soon adjusted, and he looked up into the sky, and saw it was bright blue, and dotted with white puffy clouds, he looked around him and saw nothing but thick tree's, the tree's mad either area around him seem dark and menacing, but he still couldn't remember how he got there, or why he was there.

He saw what appeared to be a broken tree branch in front of him, he looked up and saw what appeared to be a broken tree limb, and he decided to get a better view.

Luckily for him, he was unlike any other pony, he was not a unicorn, or a Pegasus, or even an earth pony, he was an alicorn, with a pair of wings and a horn, his name was Rising Star.

Despite feeling weak, he spread his wings and flew up into the trees, when he got to the top he saw nothing but more trees, but off in the distance, he saw what appeared to be a structure, but it was a long walk.

He slowly dropped from the tree as his wings started to hurt, he cringed as he folded his wings in, he decided to walk, but he had no choice now, it would be a long walk, but there wasn't any other option, he would need help, he wasn't sure how much longer he might last, each time he thought about it, his stomach would growl in hunger, and his throat would scream for water, he would have to hurry, or else he would surely pass out and die.

With a heavy sigh, he started walking in the direction of the building.

A/N: well there you have it, the first chapter, hope you enjoyed and there will be more to come, in the future, see you all then.
