Thistles Legacy
Part 1
"It's stopped raining, it's stopped raining". Baby Half Note cheered as she lead the other baby ponies out of Paradise Estate at a gallop. Babies, Lickety Split, Dangles, Squirmy, Tappy, Shaggy, Sundance, Tic Tac Toe and Fifi followed her excitedly. The Newborn babies had to run hard to keep up with the other babies.
The young heard thundered over the field that separated Paradise Estate with Dream Castle, home of the unicorn and pegasi.
~*~
"It's stopped raining. The sun is shining and the clouds are gone". The pegasi and unicorn babies yelled as the drawbridge to the castle was lowered. Baby gusty led them out, either galloping or flying. Babies North Star, Lofty, Ribbon, Wiggles, Whistles and Yo-yo followed close behind her.
"Enjoy the good weather while you can, it won't last long". North Star called after the foals as she flew into the air. Gliding gracefully on a gust of wind she looked down over the castle. More pegasi were taking to the skies.
Locket, paradise, Heart Throb and Masquerade chased each other with the energy of yearlings instead of the adults they were.
Lofty, Whizzer and Surprise flew lazy circles around Dream Castle. Surprise dipped down to the ground to tease Fizzy by nipping her on the ear before shooting off up to his friends again. Fizzy reared up at his departing figure.
"Just you wait Surprise. I'll get you for that". Fizzy threatened. Surprise laughed at her as he flew a backflip.
North Star noticed that Wind Whistler hadn't taken to the air yet. The pale blue pony remained on the ground. Quickly North Star dived down, landing softly beside her best friend. North Star saw Wind Whistler grimace as she stretched her right wing out. North Star looked at the questioningly.
"What's wrong?" North Star asked.
"Just stiff. I think I'll rest today". Wind Whistler looked at her, her pink eyes were tired.
North Star was surprised. Usually Wind Whistler used more technical terms.
Wind Whistler could see the obvious concern on North Stars face. Forcing a smile that didn't reach her eyes, she told North Star to go and fly.
"What about you?" North Star didn't want to leave her friend.
"I'm fine. Go have some fun for me". Wind Whistler told her.
Not completely satisfied, but knowing that arguing with Wind Whistler would get her nowhere North Star took off and joined the other in the sky.
Wind Whistler watched for a few minutes as the ponies, all playing, flying, winking, were having so much fun. She wanted to be out there too, but her wing hurt too much.
~*~
"Now this will hurt, but it should help". Cupcake told Wind Whistler as she held a heat pack to th eblue pony's wing. Wind Whistler shivered as pain shot through her wing like a bolt. Cupcake frowned, it was worse than she'd thought. Cupcake frowned as Wind Whistler closed her eyes and lowered her head against the pain.
"I think you should sit down". Cupcake suggested.
"I think that would be beneficial" Wind Whistler agreed.
Cupcake guided her over to a bed in the infirmary. Wind Whistler sat with her head on her legs, her wing spread over her side.
"I'll wrap your wing and strap it to your body". Cupcake told her. "Just keep the heat on it for a few more minutes".
Wind Whistler nodded without opening her eyes. That shocked Cupcake, apart form Magic Star and Gusty, Wind Whistler was the strongest pony she knew.
~*~
"Everyone into the castle or go back to Paradise Estate. The storm is about to break again". North Star shouted across the meadow. Immediately the ponies parted, running back to their homes.
Once everyone was inside Dream Castle, the drawbridge was raised shut.
No one noticed that Wind Whistler had not returned to the castle.
