As I said guys, until the next arc the episode titles are going to be named after the episode they take place in. Also, sorry if this chapter is so short but I was kind of in a rush. Well, I hope you still enjoy!
"Wait, what!" I shouted, "What do you mean?"
"As I said," began Celestia, "Your talent is Harmony itself."
"That isn't possible!" said a voice behind me. I turned around to see a blue alicorn with a mane that looked like the night sky.
"Who are you?" I asked, puzzled.
"I am Princess Luna," she said calmly.
"As in the Luna!" I exclaimed.
"Yes, little one," replied Celestia.
"I thought you were trapped in the moon," I said.
"I was, but now I'm free," she replied. Just then, Snowglider and Sunbeam entered the room arguing about something.
"No! I thought I told you that we met Juniper in Fillydelphia!" Sunbeam declared.
"But we were in Manehattan when we went to that play!" Snowglider said angrily.
"That was only after we invited her to come," Sunbeam countered, "Hey look Dawn's awake!"
"Hey guys. What happened to you guys?" I asked.
"Well after you blew up most of the caves, we went back in for you and carried you here." Said Sunbeam.
"Thanks for that," I replied, "I don't know what happened exactly."
"You're welcome," Sunbeam said kindly.
"Are you ready to leave this boring hospital yet?" Snowglider groaned, poking my flank with her wing. I just rolled my eyes before standing up. As we left, Celestia and Luna were talking with each other and laughing. Sunbeam and Snowglider led me through the streets of Canterlot.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"You'll see," replied Sunbeam. I just remained silent the rest of the walk, while Sunbeam and Snowglider resumed their argument from earlier. Eventually, we reached one of the castle towers.
"Here we are!" Sunbeam said, "Celestia said we could stay here for as long as we need to."
"Yeah! It's HUGE!" exclaimed Snowglider, causing me and Sunbeam to roll our eyes, "What? I'm allowed to be excited about living in Celestia's castle."
"We know" I replied as we walked inside. The tower was huge… and mostly empty. There was just a small sofa in the center of the room and a few pictures on the walls. I left Sunbeam and Snowglider to their argument to explore the tower. I found that it had twenty bedrooms (completed with beds and dressers), five bathrooms, and a kitchen. As I returned downstairs, I noticed that Sunbeam and Snowglider had left a note on the front door.
We went to get something for lunch. We'll be back soon, I read.
With that, I left the tower to roam Canterlot. I started at the library, but when I couldn't find anything interesting, I went to the central gardens. Before I realized what I was doing, I noticed that I had taken a detour to my old home. It was just an empty burnt-out shell, overgrown with weeds.
Whatever happened to those day, I thought to myself, the days where I didn't have to worry about my problems because Mom and Dad were there to help me through them. I started thinking about a day when me and Nightshade were having fun playing a game in the gardens.
[Begin Flashback]
"You can't catch me!" I shouted to Nightshade as we were playing a game of tag.
"We'll see about that!" she shouted as she chased after me. I then flew under a tree branch, narrowly missing it. While behind me Nightshade didn't see the branch in time, crashing into it and falling to the ground. When I landed beside her, she just glared at me before we both just started laughing.
[End Flashback]
I continued to walk towards the gardens, once I arrived I noticed Sunbeam and Snowglider sitting on a picnic blanket, smiling and talking to each other.
"Hey guys," I said as I walked up to them.
"Hey Dawn. Glad you could join us," replied Sunbeam. Then, she must've noticed the distant look on my face because she said, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, I was just thinking of times when things were so much simpler. When I didn't have to worry about my evil sister," I said.
"Want to talk about it?" Sunbeam asked kindly.
"Alright," I said, feeling nervous. Once I told them about how I was left on my own, they stared at me with matching looks of horror.
"How could your own parents do that to you?" Snowglider shouted.
"That's just it. I don't know," I replied.
"Well, I hope you find them someday," Sunbeam said sympathetically.
"I know that you'll never find them," said a voice behind us.
I whirled around to see Nightshade…
That's all for this chapter!
So remember to let me know what you think, and I'll see all you guys in the next chapter!
