Two years later...
Celestia was in her throne room, signing papers. It had been two years since Twilight dissepirence. And NONE of the search parties have found her. But Celestia didn't want to and will refuse to give up. She loved Twilight and she wasn't going to get torn away from her daughter. Celestia, the girls, Shining, Cadence, and Luna were all depressed of Twilights dissepirence. Not even Pinkie could cheer them all up for long. It was and is very hard for them to stop crying. Pinkie would practically flood the place up. While the rest did the same, it was impossible for all of them to Not cry them sleves to sleep. It just... Didn't feel right in some way. Nothing felt right.
But deep in the fired called 'the Wild Heart' forest, was a purple alicorn. Who was happily coming back into her tree house home from picking some fruit fresh from trees. This purple alicorn was only smiling and looked relaxed.
"The perfect day to only... Relax..." Said the purple alicorn, feeling like she was about to flop on the floor of her tree house. Though she couldn't or she would make a hole in it and fall. A little purple bird came in and sat on the ponies shoulder. Chirping happily, like a baby smiling. "Oh hey Lilac, how are you doing?" She asked the bird. Though the little creature only flew off and landed next to a frame with a photo of other ponies. The alicorn walked to the photo and picked it up with a smile. 'Its been so...long.' She thought. Her photo had her entire family in it. From her mother to her closest friends, to her sis-in-law and her brother. It had just been so long. But she was strong and didn't go all 'mushy'... But she knew they were worried to death, it had been two years... TWO years since she had seem them all. With a sigh and a smile, she looked at the bird and said...," Come on Lilac... We're going to see a few... Ponies" she said. With that done and said she went to 'pack up' for her journey.
At Canterlot castle Celestia was finishing her last few things before she could go and have some time with her sister. They were both naturally extremely busy most of the time, they didn't even see each other for some time. She finally felt a little relaxed until the doors went open all of a sudden. In walked a purple alicorn with some bows and arrows made of wood. She looked up and a smile appeared on her face. Celestia was shocked to see who this 'pony ' was.
"Twilight? Is... Is that you?" She said thinking it was only one of those dreams again.
"I'm not so hard to forget about now am i?" Said the alicorn with a chuckle. Celestia went from her throne to the changed Twilight and gave her a huge squeeze.
"I missed... You... Too mom.." She said hugging in return.
"Twilight where have you been?! Its been two years... TWO years!" Exclaimed Celestia squeezing Twilight even more.
"Mom... Don't kill me now... " Twilight said. Suddenly Celestia let go to let Twilight breath. Celestia let but but she couldn't stop smiling.
"Seriously! Where have you been?!" The mother kept on asking.
"Somewhere..." Muttered Twilight. She then heard ponies call out her name.
"Twilight?" Said a voice. Her ears shot up she grabbed her bow and an arrow quicker than you can say 'cheese' shot around and pointed. She had a scared look on her face. Fear mixed with confidence and determination. She was breathing deeply. The five girls jumped back in a little bit of fright.
"Twilight dear! Its only us!" Said Rarity with a little fright.
"Oh my gosh! Girls! Sorry, reflexes." She said with a smile putting her 'items' back. She was then, suddenly, flooded with hugs from the girls. Each wearing the biggest smiled they've worn in two years!
"Twilight! Where in sweet apples have yer been?!" Asked applejack.
"We missed you soooooooooooo much!" Squealed Pinkie practically squishing Twilight.
"Dear Twilight! Your mane somehow got softer! How'd you do it?" Marveled Rarity.
"Its great to see you again Twilight, we missed you."Fluttershy said timidly with a voice a little louder.
"OH YEAH! Twilight! Hey where did you get this stuff?!" Asked Rainbow-Dash admiring her bow and arrows.
"Its great to see you girls really but I don't wanna get squashed here!" Said Twilight. The girls them started laughing and departed from their hug. She then whistled a little bird came in and landed on her shoulder.
"EEEK! OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!Twilight is that a little baby bird there?! She's sooooo CUTE!" Squealed Fluttershy going up to Twilight and the bird.
"Oh right this is Lilac, my companion, pet and my friend who helped me... Where I was living." She replied Fluttershy with a giggle.
"Twilight?" Said another voice behind her. Twilight had then reacted the same way she had with her friends.
"Another move and I'll shoot it!" She threatened.
"Twilight! Its me Shining! And Cadence!" Said the voice of her brother.
"Oh sorry. Like I said wit the girls... Reflexes." She said with a smile. Walking up to him and hugging him AND Cadence tighter than ever before.
"OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH! TWILIGHT YOU'RE BACK!" exclaimed her sister in law.
"Hey kid! Look at you! You've rally grown some muscle! Where have you been!?" He complemented. Twilight had changed quite a bit. Her muscles were much bigger, her mane longer and softer, she had grown taller and she had also looked more relaxed about most stuff that before she use to worry about ALL the time!
"Yeah well... I had to if I was going to adapt to where I was going to live... " she said with a chuckle. A little bird then flew up to Twilight and landed on her shoulder with a happy chirp. Cadence smiled seeing a little bird next to Twilight, this showed that Twilight had a more... Calm atmosphere.
"Soo Twilight... Where HAVE you been living for the two years that you've not been with us?' Asked Cadence feeling curious.
"Let's just say that... Its been a wild two years for me..." Twilight replied with a chuckle with a smile.
"Uh huh... So... Come on we have to catch up... Its dinner time anyways!" Shining said, trying to break the awkwardness in between the two mares. The family did so... Well all but Twilight who just didn't feel like eating. After the had eaten they went to have some 'friends and family' time together. Or... A nice walk in the garden when the entire family was there... Even Luna was there!
"So... Tell us! What have you been up too?" Rarity asked squealing.
"Uhh... I was... Just doing... Some stuff..." Twilight replied with a weak smile.
"Twilight... Are you alright? You've been acting like a different pony ever since you came back." Asked Fluttershy," if you don't mind me saying..."
"Yes of curse im fine... I've just... changed..." Twilight replied.
"Changed... How?"Asked Cadence.
"I've uhh... It doesn't matter... But anyways how have you lot been?" She asked obviously trying to get off the subject.
"We've been the same. But worried about a pony who has been gone for two years..." replied Luna eyeing Twilight.
"You lot really need to stop worrying, I've been fine and plus... Its not like I've died some time and then come back to life... Seriously that's just... Crazy!" Twilight said.
"Okay... So what have you been up too? Learnt anything new? Not like you haven't... But really..." Asked Shining.
"Yes... I've learnt a little fighting and how to use my bow and arrows." Twilight replied with a smirk. Shining just smirked back.
"Yeah... Sure you did..." He said rolling his eyes.
"Wanna bet I can use my bow and arrows?" She said
"Bet you cant!" He challenged.
"Is that a challenge?" She said. But shining just stood there and simply said...
"Try me..."
"Okay... We that tree way over there? I'm gonna try and hit it." She said.
"Like you can.." He said. Though Twilight just smirked. She got out her arrows and her bow from behind her and did what she did. She loaded, adjusted, aimed and... FIRED! The arrow went flying and hit the very middle of tree. This made her brothers jaw drop to the ground! She just giggled. So did the rest of the family.
"Yes... I'm SURE I could hit it shining..." She said with a smile, " hey wanna see something else?"
"Sure! Show us what else you got." Replied Rainbow dash. Twilight smiled and put her bow an the other arrows down. All of a sudden she kept on back flipping backwards! Twilight kept doing this until she reached the tree and then on the side of the tree grabbed the arrow and with her legs she pushed herself back to the ponies doing a summer salt with a strong landing. They... Were...all...in...shock. Each of had their jaws on the floor. Twilight just chuckled.
"That was so... AWESOME!" Exclaimed Rainbow-Dash doing a flip in the air," you just gotta teach that to me sooner or later!"
"I'll be glad to! But right now its getting very late and we should be getting some sleep." She replied with a yawn. The girls yawned in response and went to bed. Soon most of them were asleep... MOST of them were. Twilight was in her bedroom, writing in her diary. Out of magic she had made one, though she didn't want to tell anyone. Her diary was a dark purple/lilac/pink color, with gold to decorate it making it look fancy...in a gold circle right in the middle of the cover, was a beautiful pink/amethyst diamond/gem. She had found the gem lying around one day and picked it up.
Dear diary...
I'm back in Equestria...its just as I left it. Its calm, peaceful, happy and harmonic. And the ponies in Canterlot are still the snobby ones... Somethings just don't want to change... But I like it that way... Anyways, I'm in my room right now and I just cant help but feel like...like I just don't belong here... When i'm here, I feel like I'm forced to do things like rule over Equestria. But when I'm in the wild heart forest... I feel like I'm my own pony and I'm not being forced to do things I don't want to do or become. I feel like I'm free to become whatever i want to become, and live my life just how I want at the same time...I'll need to be on my own... And here is my family... But.. UHH its just too much!.
She then suddenly stooped. She felt like she was being watched. She then went to see if any pony was looking and peeked out the door. Luckily nopony was there. 'Well since I can't sleep... Might as well go for a walk...' Twilight said in her head. She flew from her bedroom balcony, to the garden. She just strolled around...with her bow,arrows and her portable target. She ended up getting to the training grounds somehow. So being bored she set up her targets. Luna was watching her, she had watched every move of Twilights' since she entered her room. Twilight then loaded her bow with an arrow, relaxing her shoulder a little. While she was staring at her target she was also breathing deeply. Once she was SURE that she had enough concentration and shot her arrow. It flew all the way to the target until it hit the middle. Twilight lowered her arrow and saw she hit the middle. She smiled and back flipped to he target until her reached it and took it off the target.
"Perfect... I can't believe that you can't do anything like this here... " she said. Lilac then came out of nowhere and landed on Twilights shoulder, " hi Lilac. What's wrong?" Lilac just chirped but with an 'I'm not so happy' look, "oh you miss the forest... Don't you?" The pet nodded her head," I miss home too buddy...but I don't wanna just go *poof*... All of a sudden". The pet nodded her head and chirped at her. Twilight chuckled. 'What is my niece thinking now?' Luna thought.
"Listen i'm going to HAVE to go back anyways, if I don't my mother is just not going to get her present... Or aunty, I think they're going to like it." Twilight said smiling. The bird chirped. And Twilight chuckled. She packed up and made her way to her bedroom and tucked herself in...she had a surprise to get going to... And she was SURE all of them were going to love it...
The next day was bright and happy. The birds sung as Twilight got up from her bed. It was strange for her to wake up and not be in the forest. She looked to her left and saw her pet/companion/friend still sleeping. She giggled when she saw Lilac there, she was sleeping snugly right on her pillow. It was cute...VERY cute. She nudged the bird waking her up. She got up and chirped at Twilight happily. She giggled.
"Morning sleepy head, come on, I need to go get something, but I'm going to be gone for a while, so I need you to deliver something to my mother and stay here...okay?" She said. Her pet nodded her head. Twilight wrote a note saying that she'll be gone for a few hours and will be back before sunset. She gave the note to her pet and Lilac flew away. She grabbed a few things and went off... Today was the day she would reunite her family... With her long lost generation of alicorns...
Celestia had woken up early to raise the sun, but fell asleep once more. She had woken with something flying above her. She opened her eyes and saw it was Lilac... Wait what?! She shot up and saw the bird landing on her table beside her bed. The bird had dropped a note. She took it and it said..:
Dear mother...
I hope you got my note... I've gone out for the day because i have a surprise for you,Luna and our family... I will be back way before sundown so you don't have to panic about when i will or will not come back home.
From Twilight.
Celestia finished reading her note, and then settled it down. She didn't want to loose her daughter for another two years, but Twilight wanted her to trust her. What WAS she just going to do?! She though for a little and decided that if Twilight was not back before sunset then she would do a tracking spell to find Twilight again. She wasn't going to loose Twilight again.
In a cave, in an abandoned forest were two alicorns. Both trapped behind bars. They were a married couple. The female alicorn was tall, with a white coat with a flowing mane and tail that were a fiery yellow, orange and red color with sparkles... Or what looked to be like sparkles and her Cutie mark was a VERY complex sun and her eyes were pink. By her side was a male alicorn. He had a night coat, his mane and tail was also a night blue with sparkles that seemed like stars. His cutie mark was a complex copy of the night sky and his eyes were a dark blue. They both went to pure fear when they heard hoof steps. Soon a small pony stepped inside. She was an alicorn! It was amazing!
"Oh great Celestia! How many traps does this place have!" She said with a chuckle. The married two look at each other confused. Who was this pony?
"Umm, excuse me but can you help us please? We have been here for longer than you could count." Asked the alicorn mare with a sweet voice.
"Its one of the reasons I am here, well do all of the intros later but for now, let's get both you out of there." Twilight replied with a hurry. They nodded, suddenly Twilight pushed a leaver and smiled. The doors started to open.
"Its been such a long time since we have gone out of there, anyways, my name is-" she began twilight interrupted.
"You're Princess Luccenta the eldest princess of the sun, and you must be Prince Comet, the eldest Prince of the moon. My mother will be delighted to see the both of you again!" Said Twilight.
"Yes... May we ask, who are you?" Asked Princess Luccenta curious.
"Oh yes, ahem, my name is Princess Twilight Sparkle, the soon-to-be crowned Princess of Equestria... Even though i hate the crown..." She replied.
"May I ask, why DO you hate the crown?" Asked Luccenta.
"I hate the way ponies treat me! I'm not just royalty... I am a pony who just got lucky to have the mother I have..." She replied, " but we must go home before she lowers the sun, and my aunty raises the moon before they start to think I just left them again." So the ponies went off... Okay teleported off. With a flash of light the reappeared in the Canterlot Castle throne room. All the others were there. Celestia especially was panicking the most... All over again. noticed Twilight standing next to her and she literally threw herself on her.
"Mom! What's wrong? No wait you thought that I just vanished all over again... Right?" She said with a smile.
"Twilight! Please NEVER scare your own mother like that! I don't want you to leave me on my own."
"Oh mom... I'll never leave your side... Ever!" Twilight said hugging her mother tightly. After a few seconds she pulled apart," anyways... I've got a surprise for you! And you too aunt Luna!"
"Really? What could it be now?" Luna asked.
"You two can come in now!" She said out loud with a chuckle. In came the two very same alicorns Twilight had rescued.
"Celestia? Luna? Oh my heavens, is it really you too?!" Said Luccenta starting to cry tears of joy.
"Mom! Dad! Oh your still here!" Luna said running to her parents. Celestia did the same. The family hugged tightly, while Twilight just chuckled.
"How on earth did you know they were both here Twilight?" Asked Luccenta, smiling.
"Let me rephrase what I had said to you two when you first got out... Ahem; I am Princess Twilight Sparkle, DAUGHTER of Princess Celestia and NIECE of Princess Luna, and soon-to-be crowned ruler of Equestria." Twilight re-said. The two gasped when they heard the words 'DAUGHTER' and 'NIECE'.
"So that means..." Comet said looking at Twilight then at Celestia.
"Mother, Father, please meet Princess Twilight... My daughter." Celestia said with a chuckle,walking over to Twilight giving her one last hug... The two looked like they had nailed their jaws to the floor... They were... Grandparents!?
heh I bet you lot had no idea I was gonna do this to Twi did you? Haha well i'm going to start being pretty unpredictable now... oky maybe not but still... you didn't see that coming.
