Enjoy
Dawn broke; it was time for the little pony to awaken for the new day, the only issue was that Stella was already awake. She had been awake all night due to terrifying nightmare of shadow phantoms. Stella sluggishly climbed out of bed or rather used her strength to push herself off the bed onto the cold marble floor; washing away the visible signs of fatigue was quite a challenge to the young mare but Stella had managed to do the next task which was to brush her teeth.
Breakfast came; "Good morning Stella did you rest well," Celestia greeted; Luna face showed aggravation however she covered her true emotions so nopony can ask what's the matter, Stella could tell Luna's emotions since she was staring at the midnight blue alicorn eyes.
"Oh I had the best night sleep in month's princess." Stella lied; Celestia and Luna didn't by the false emotion given off by the young unicorn. "So what are the plans for today, Celestia and Luna?"
"You are to leave Canterlot at midday so you can live with Princess Twilight Sparkle." Luna spoke; after breakfast Stella visited the library again for her second lesson this week, healing spell.
"How am I supposed to do a healing spell Celestia?"
The mare panted whilst struggling for breath; this lesson proved to be quite tricky, since healing spell actually deducts energy points of a unicorn's energy level bar; again Stella tried harder this time, but alas there was no success. "Dammit, why can't I do the stupid healing spell?" Stella huffed.
"That's because you're straining yourself, Stella. Remember the key is relax and to take your time."
"I don't want to take my time; I want to get the spell right now later." Another grunt was let out of the mare.
"Dear Stella is something bothering you?"
"No Celestia, I'm fine. Why are you asking?" Stella retorted.
"It just that you look like you have had better days. Are you sure there's nothing bothering you?" Stella responded by trying to block what was bothering her, then she would try the spell one last time to heal the injured blue jay's right wing; Stella pushed the energy from her hooves all the way up to her focusing point, which was her horn. From the focusing point a dirty yellow aura appeared then surrounded the helpless bird. "Success," the pony cheered silently, before she was cut off by the flying bird.
"I can assure you Celestia that nothing is bothering me, I swear." After lesson Stella right away left the library to take a nap so she can recover from her fatigue, the mare remembered why she didn't get any sleep from the night before. Finally the unicorn made it to her bed chambers and wasted no time climbing into the soft bed; as Stella was drifting into deep sleep the voices yet again tried to torment the mare.
"Just ignore the voice Stell," the mare mumbled to herself; Stella was determined not to have a repeat of yesterday night's scene. Instead of hearing the aggravating sound of the voice she began to her a similar voice.
"Hay Stell, you should just find a way to get back to your world since your just a big inconvenience here. Not that I'm trying to be rude or anything."
"Get lost." Stella shouted at the voice, as she realized the voice belong to her deceased friend Eva; Stella shot straight up whilst flaring her nostrils; "be gone with you, you are not my friends so get out of my head. Eva was my only true friend, by you using her voice you are sullying my dear friends image." Stella fought.
"Sullying my dear friend's image, please. You got no friends so you're going to need me to live; after all without me you would have been pushing up the daisy. Let me just be clear with you, Friend. The only reason Celestia and Luna want you is because you have potentials.
"Potentials," Stella repeated.
"Yes potentials, they're afraid of you Stella; the reason why they fear you is because you have the power to overthrow them, thus making them insignificant to the pony realm. So I say you distant yourself from the ponies so you can grow in knowledge and energy and take what's your." The shadows chimed; abruptly Stella was distracted by the nock on the door.
"Who's there?" Stella shouted
"It's me Luna; I come here to serve you as what you say on earth an agony aunt or a counsellor…"
"No thanks I don't need any of them especially a counsellor."
"You didn't let me finish my sentence; I came to you because there was a quote in the Star swirl the bearded journal about the bearer of twilight appearing in the twenty first age. The quote says this. The bearer of twilight come forth to the land of ponies and presents them with the promised lands, but beware that the bearer of twilight is confounded by voices of the shadow.
What I'm trying to say is that Starswirl mentioned the bearer of twilight which is you to be vigilant and to not be swayed by the shadows; or bad thing will happen."
"What will happen?" Stella interrupted.
"Then you will be corrupted and find yourself banished for a thousand years on the moon."
"Well thanks for the pep talk; I guess I have to go see your sister." I met Celestia in the throne room as planned at the precise time of 12:00 PM.
"Welcome Stella, I believe it is time for the guards to you to Ponyville," Celestia said. The travel was quick and scenic; from the sky I saw a large cluster of cottages that formed a small community. Where I was staying was at the library/tree house crystal castle
"Greeting," the lavender alicorn said "and welcome to my crystal library. You must be the new friend from Canterlot, Stella."
