Hiro's POV
The pony in the mirror, he was unrecognizable. He had on a black hood that hid his mane and cast a shadow above his eyes, preventing you from telling his eye color. The mask he wore around his mouth looked like an exotic cloth from up close but in reality, it was just an ordinary dark grey scarf. His pure black and grey robe covered his entire body, not showing a spot of his original coat color or his cutie mark. The tail and wings… you couldn't even tell he had them. He was completely hidden in the costume.
I started to remove the suit.
Even though I wore a lot of clothing, it wasn't that hard to take it all off. The long robe fell down to the floor of the bathroom. The hood went down with it and the scarf was easily just pulled off.
The pony underneath was revealed. My mopped coal black mane fell down from the hood's grasp. My black tail waved around a little, probably glad that it finally got some fresh air. I glared at the small sweat drops on my eggshell white coat, the robe causing all of this. I turn around to see more sweat drops right on my cutie mark of three ninja stars stacked together like a pyramid. It always does get a little hot under the costume. Then I just looked straight at the eyes in the mirror, slowly being hypnotized by the green eyes staring back at me.
I let out a sigh.
I brushed my teeth and went to go get dressed. I pulled out a black hooded sweater and black pants from my dresser and put them on. Ponies always asked me why I wear them when it's a sunny day. I tell them I feel comfortable wearing it. While that's partly true, I also wear them to hide my cutie mark. With a pony like the Lunar Ninja out there kicking flanks, I'll probably be suspected as being him since… you know… the three ninja stars on my flank.
Last night was probably going to be the very last night the Lunar Ninja will ever be in Manehattan. Because today was the day he moves from the city, to a nice peaceful town. Or… at least he hopes it's going to be peaceful. Now the Lunar Ninja can't make any promises since for some reason trouble just loves to follow him, so he better prepare an apology for Hiro if anything bad happens.
There's still a box left for me to get. After that it's goodbye Manehattan and hello Ponyville.
I took a deep breath. Today is the day… that was all I was saying as I threw my final box into the moving wagon.
Tag's POV
It all happened back in high school. There was this girl in my art class. She was the pegasus with the multi colored drop of water as a cutie mark. Her mane was yellow and was kind of short for a mare, but if you asked me she looked nice. Her eyes were purple, the kind of purple that you would see on a gem. They even sparkled like gems too. Whenever she was under the moonlight, her light green coat would always sparkle under its shine. She was beautiful. She could've had any colt in the whole school, but out of all of them… she chose me.
Her name was Misty.
It was quite the relationship we had. I still remember the weekend nights we spent together laying under the stars or the nights we spent on my sofa holding each other. Her parents loved me and my parents just adored her. Sure we had our fair share of fights, but none of them were enough to damage our relationship. I thought we were going to spend the rest of our lives together. Yeah, that's how great we were together. Those were the best years of my life.
But then, one thing changed it all. It was just a regular night. My parents were out on their second honeymoon, leaving my house only to us two. We went into my room. At first, it was just the usual cuddling we always do, but then Misty wanted to do more. She wanted to show me that she truly did love me and that we would always be together forever. I just… went along with the moment.
Three months later, Misty started complaining about some stomach problems. The day she went to the doctor, she asked me to come with her. She knew what was wrong and she wanted me to be there when it was confirmed. She was pregnant.
We spent the following months figuring out what we were going to do. At first, I thought aborting the baby was the best course of action, but Misty didn't want to hear it. She said that since the baby was inside HER AND ONLY HER, that she would be the one responsible for giving birth to him or her and said abortion was not an option. I didn't bring it up after that. So we waited till the baby came, enduring everything that came at us. The nasty glares from classmates, teachers, and even our parents, the constant cravings Misty got, and finding a job to help support the baby when it comes.
The day Misty gave birth… the day Misty gave birth was… I don't even know how to describe it. I was there with her, holding her hoof as she was giving birth to our baby. She was in so much pain, she just kept screaming. The doctor kept telling her to push, push, until… the whole room… was painted red. The baby was taken by the doctors to get cleaned up, and Misty looked like she was about to pass out. Her hoof felt so cold, and her face looked pale. Misty was not doing so well.
She told me to come closer. I leaned my head near her mouth and heard her whisper:
"Sky. Call her Sky."
She leaned over to my cheek and kissed it. Then, Misty was gone.
All I remember after that is screaming for a doctor.
I woke up in the middle of the night again. I quickly looked to my left and saw little Sky still sleeping peacefully in her carrier. My little Sky looked exactly like her mother for as she had the same colored mane and tail, same colored coat, and same eye color as her. I could see her wings flapping slowly, probably giving the expression that she's dreaming about flying. That got me to smile. I got up off the bed and looked out the window.
The pony in the window looked at me. I could see my long messy brown mane and my dark orange coat. The light blue eyes stared at my cutie mark which was a can of spray paint leaning on a wall. I changed focus on what was actually outside the window. All that was out there was a large open field.
Right now, we're in a room on a train that's heading to a town called Ponyville. In the town of Ponyville, I hope to raise my daughter well and hope that my career as a graffiti artist will be recognized.
I check the clock.
Its two a.m., which means that today is the day. That's all I was thinking as I headed back to sleep.
Trait's POV
"Come on Smoke, you're going to be late for your first day." I kept shaking the young sleeping colt, knowing quite well that he was only faking his slumber.
"Come on Trait," he complained under his sheets, "I don't want to go to school. I won't know anypony there."
"Don't worry Smoke; I'm sure you'll make plenty of friends. Now come on, I already made breakfast." That seemed to have did the trick because next thing I know, Smoke zips past me to head downstairs leaving a puff of… smoke.
I go downstairs as well seeing Smoke already digging into his bowl of cereal. "Okay now we need to talk about some rules," I said pulling a chair from the table and taking a seat."
"Aw, again Trait?"
"Yes again Smoke. Now come on. Rule number one…" I pause so that he can answer.
He sighed. "Don't reveal your horn or wings."
"Good. Rule number two…"
"Stay as myself and only myself."
"Alright good, you're starting to get it. Now come on, mirror test." I pulled out a mirror from under the table and made him look at it. "Remember how you look. Tell me what you see."
He sighed again probably irritated by now. "I see a small colt. He has a black and grey striped mane and tail along with a grey coat. His eyes are brown and," he sighed, "he has no cutie mark. He's an earth pony."
"Alright then, I think you're ready."
"Hold up a second," Smoke pulled the mirror away from me and held it up to my face. "You know the deal. You have to do it too."
I let out a chuckle. "Okay, okay Smoke."
"What do YOU see in the mirror Trait?"
I chuckled again. "I see an earth pony with a dark yellow mane and tail and a blue coat. He has brown eyes as well and has a cutie mark of a sword and shield."
"Okay good," Smoke said putting the mirror back under the table.
"Now come on Smoke, don't want to be late for your first day of school."
"Um… Trait," Smoke said with a hint of gloom.
"What is it Smoke?"
"When are we going back home?"
I try to put on a smile as I messed up Smoke's mane. "I'm sure it won't be long Smoke." It was hard lying, but it's all for the best. We walked out of the house and headed towards the school. As we were walking, I could see Smoke shaking a lot. As his older brother, I reassured him by telling him: "Don't worry. Today is the day."
He looked a little ticked off. "What does that even mean?"
"Exactly that. Today is the day." That's all I said as we walked towards the school. It really irritated Smoke off.
