Shadows of the Past: prologue
It was a bright and sunny day over the capitol city of Canterlot; all the ponies were out doing their daily business, the streets were filled with ponies walking down them, all of them seemed to be minding their own business.
At the Canterlot train station, the air filled with the loud screech of an approaching train, the brakes roared to a halt as the train stopped in the station, the smoke from the engine filled the station, and made it hard for some to see.
Soon after it came to a complete halt, the ponies onboard began to slowly make their way off the train, many of them were high society ponies who had just returned from a trip, but that wasn't the same for the three mysterious ponies that stepped off the train, all three of them wearing hoods.
As they stepped off the train, the one in the middle looked up, and sighed.
"this should be a good place to start looking" he said while looking in all directions, the one to his right, a younger unicorn stepped up to him, "dad, how do we know we can find him here, it's been over ten years since we last saw him, we have no idea where to even start looking" he said with a worried look on his face.
The older one in the middle sighed again and turned to face him, "Flare, I know how long it's been, but this is the best place to start our search, we get what information we can about him, and then we confront him" he said with a calm look on his face.
"but dad, even if we do find him, do you really think he would forgive us after all these years, for leaving him behind, Celestia knows what might have happened to him, in the years we've been gone, he could be dead for all we know" he said with the same expression.
The older one looked away for a minute, and then turned back to him, "he's alive, I know he is, and you should too, after all he is your younger brother" he said as he turned around and walked forward, just as he did the third unicorn walked beside him, and older female, "Flare, you know how your dad feels about your brother, he still blames himself for what happened that night, all those years ago, it was a difficult decision for him to make, but he did what he did what he though was best, but fate seemed to have a different plan, all we can do is hope he will forgive us" she said and walked forward, leaving him behind.
He sighed to himself, and looked up at the sky, "don't worry little bro, we'll be there soon…Flame" he said as he ran forward and caught up with the other two.
