MY LITTLE SPARKLE
Every day I live my life as it comes. Almost every day is uneventful always going into the same routine me and my sister would get up walk to school, learn and then watch films until we go to bed. One day I could be with my friends then another day I would be with my family. Every day something new happens like I would bump into an old friend, find a tener on the floor or get barked at by some strange dog. But soon after my family died me and my sister were the only ones left of the family. My sister is only twelve years old and I am only sixteen year old and losing the whole of our family hit us hard. We would keep our distance from our friends sometimes to be alone but so we started to relax and enjoy life as normal. But sometimes my world is dark and grey and since my sister and I had no family I took charge and started doing the housework and most of the time we invite friends round to keep us from dwelling on the past. Our parents made only one wish for me and my sister Emily to achieve. Sadly we have not achieved that wish of theirs. Most of the time we just watch comedy films and other stuff to keep us happy. But one thing we both like to watch is My little pony: Friendship is magic. We like the bright colours of the ponies and the bright colours of their world my sister would try and touch one of the ponies and fail because she got stopped by the television screen. Then we would snap back to reality and carry on with our day.
By now we have got into the same routine "wake, school, sleep." But every now and then we have something new introduced to our routine like we meet one of our friends or we get barked at by a dog. But other than that we don't have much to do. However one day after me and my sister Emily got home from school I fancied a walk Emily didn't want to walk so I started to walk on my own. I walk for many reasons. When I feel sad I walk, when I feel tired I walk and when I feel like walking I walk. But now I walk for the sake of it. I rarely pass anyone I know on my walks. And now all the streets which were all once colourful and happy are now old dull and grey no one can bare to look at all the once big business' which once served the town. I had been walking for a long time now and I decided to head back home. I had decided to take a different route home from my walk today. "I need a change of scenery." I thought to myself. So I started to walk down a side street. As I was walking down the side street old newspapers blew all around me. Now living in a town I see rubbish all over the place, but rarely do I see any rubbish that hasn't been damaged in some way however on my way home I noticed a box. I noticed this particular box because it was in my way and it was in perfect condition which I thought was odd. However I walked past the box without giving it another glance and carried on walking home. 10 minutes after I got home all I could think about was the box. Over the past half hour I tried to push the box out of my mind. Emily walked up to me. "David what's on your mind?" she asked. "A box." I replied. "Why's that?" she asked. "I've got no idea, Emily. I'm going to go and find out what it is about that box and why it's playing on my mind ok?" "Ok, David." Said Emily as I walked out the door. "What is it about that box that made it stick out in my mind?" I asked myself. Then I reached the place where the box was I slowly started to walk towards it. 'How could this box stick out in my mind' I thought to myself. But then I found myself standing next to the box. Then I looked inside and saw something purple inside at first I thought it was a toy been left to decay with everything else, but then I saw it breathing. I slowly opened the box and what I saw made my heart stop and explode. Inside the box was a little filly Twilight Sparkle. She looked a little younger than her filly appearance in season 2 episode 25. Then I looked on the side of the box a saw the words "Give to a good home." "Who would give up a cute little filly like Twilight?" I turned to leave but as I got up I accidently kicked the side of the box I looked back a saw she was starting to wake up. She saw me and the look in her eyes made me bend back down. Several thoughts were now racing thought my head. "Why was she here? How could she be here? There was no way in the whole of the universe that she could even be here." But however she kept looking at me and I kept looking at her. My heart exploded again and then I thought 'I can't take it anymore so I took off my coat and took Twilight in my coat. Her horn started to glow as if she was trying to escape but was unsuccessful. But as I pulled her closer to me I whispered to her. "it's alright I'm not going to harm you in anyway." After hearing that Twilight relaxed and snuggled into my coat making herself comfortable as I began the journey home. I was worried because I might bump into someone I hate they see Twilight and take her to a laboratory to get experimented on but as I said before I rarely see anyone on my walks now. Then I got home and I saw that Twilight was asleep and I was being as quiet as I could. I opened the door and turned on the hallway light. Then I felt Twilight stir in my arms she must've woken up as soon as I turned the hallway light on. "Hi mum. Hey dad." I said to a picture of my parents. I know that they aren't there but talking to a picture of them makes me remember that they are always in mine and Emily's heart and that they will always love us and it keeps me sane. Then Emily came downstairs. "Did you find out what it was about that box?" she asked. Yea I did." I replied. "What's that in your coat? She asked. "It's the contents of that box." I said setting the coat down. And letting Twilight emerge and take in her new surroundings. Emily looked startled. "Who is that? Emily whispered to me. "That's Twilight Sparkle." I said to Emily. "How can Twilight be here?" she asked me. "I don't know Emily and Believe me I had those exact same thoughts myself when I found her." I said with a smile. "So." I said turning to Twilight. "Welcome to your new home." As Twilight came over to me. "How about I get you something to eat?" I asked Twilight and she jumped into my arms at the sound of the word eat my guest was she hadn't eaten at all since because she had been in that box for god know how long. I gave her some biscuits but because she wasn't from this world I wouldn't know what's right for her to eat at that age anyway. After being satisfied with the food I took her into my room and she sat in my dad's chair. I wasn't meant to sit in it when he was alive so I didn't see why that should change after his death. But I wasn't going to tell twilight to get off because she didn't know she wasn't meant to sit in it and I wasn't going to blame her for not knowing. I was going to let her sit wherever she is most comfortable. And for a third time that day my heart exploded and it was then I knew mine and Emily's lives were going to get better.
