Chapter 7:
"Quick and painless... yeah right" X said aloud as he rubbed his right flank "About as painless as a hydra spine to the face" he looked around his room, the sunlight was his only source of illumination. He spotted a vase on top of a table and decided to try out if his psionics were still available to him
sigh "Thank God I still have them" X said with relief as the vase floated gently in the air. Some psionic users ended up with their abilities drastically decreased or even completely gone after experiencing such a meltdown of the mind as the one he went through. However, where there's the risk about losing them there's the possibility of having them stronger than before.
"Wonder if I'll be able to that now..." X said as he closed his eyes. With the vase still floating in the air, he focused his mind and imagine a copy next to it. A slight headache started to bother him. The more he focused, the more the pain increased.
It soon proved to much for him to handle, he rub his temples trying to ease the pain "Ah, damn... Have to take it easy. After my display against Discord, I need to let them cool-off" Giving out a sigh, he carefully placed the vase back on the table and threw himself on the bed.
...Wonder if I'll ever make it back... Celestia said that she'll try to figure out a way to send me home and I can believe that she'll definitely do her best...but goddam is she taking her sweet time...Need to also keep in mind that she can read my thoughts, don't know about Luna and the other unicorns around here if they can do the same...won't be easy to keep them to myself now that the inhibitors are gone. Then again, where's the fun in things being easy?
While he was still inside his mind thinking peacefully, a knock on his door ruined his concentration. X groaned slightly as he got up from the bed. He wanted to spend the day alone to gather his thoughts and maybe even try to see if he was able to do some psionic abilities that may have been suppressed by his inhibitors. Hesitantly, he walked over towards the door
"Yeah?" he asked while not opening it. He received no reply from the other side. It struck him as odd so X slowly opened the door. He looked around to see who it was but found no one, not even the guards that patrolled the halls were present. Stepping outside, he scanned the area with his implants to search for the ponies but whatever heat signature they had was gone as well.
Worried that something may be happening, he closed his door to figure out where everyone had gone. But as he took a step, he heard the sound of crackling coming from his right hoof. He lifted it up and saw what where sprinkles of many colors stuck on his hoof.
"What the hell is this?" he said quizzically. Shaking his hoof to get them off, he noticed a trail of the brightly colored sweets "Ok... someone wants me to follow this trail. Might as well see what this is all about"
He followed the trail diligently, making his way around the halls of the castle, going outside towards the courtyard and then walking around the gardens. He stopped for a quick moment, looking around he noticed that he was on the exact same spot where Discord's statue was. Of course, he was now placed in another secret location to prevent anypony from setting him free again.
"So the lizard hybrid thing is sealed away for good. If it was up to me I'd smash the statue into a million pieces" His voice reflected slight anger but he shrugged off the tough of Discord opting to forget about the whole situation
"Have to admit, they sure are good at cleaning up messes" X said as he looked at the many flowers around him. He did go around messing up the garden but now it was as if nothing destructive ever happened. "Oh man that reminds me, I better apologize to her. I'll do that as soon as I'm done with whatever this is all about"
Focusing on his goal once more, he continued to follow the trail. Again he found himself inside the castle, wandering the halls again and going from floor to floor. He was starting to get bored, the monotony slowly was eating away at his attention span.
"This is starting to get too repetitive for my taste, whoever wants me to follow this candy road better get to the point quick or else I'm getting out of here to do something more productive" As if on cue, the trail was beginning to end as it reached a large door. X looked at it with precaution. On his way he didn't stumble unto anyone in the castle. The sigh of guards doing their jobs or the staff either working diligently or enjoying their day was present all the time, but now it was as if the castle was deserted for a long time. He extended one of his hoofs and began to open the door slowly. A loud creaking sound was made in the process
"Anyone here?" X asked .The room was pitch black, what light entered was coming from the opened door. "I followed your trail or whatever the hell you call it. Hello?" no answer was given to him
Hmm...dark room...no one around...eerie silence...what could possibly go wrong?
X poked his head out, looking around he was switching from night vision to thermal, hoping to figure out where everyone had gone to. He came out empty on his search. Slowly, he steeped inside. After moving a couple of feet away from the door, it suddenly closed. Now the only thing that penetrated the darkness was the green light that emanated from his eye. He assumed that he was about to be ambushed so he took a fighting stance and readied himself for whatever was about to brawl with him
"SURPRISE!" The windows suddenly shot open, letting the daylight inundate the room and reveling an unexpected scenario for him. Before him were the Mane six and the princesses smiling at him. Multicolored decorations filled the room ranging from bright streamers to the many balloons that gently floated around.
"Uhm... What's going on?" X asked. In a blink of an eye, Pinkie suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed his face.
"It's a party for you!" She exclaimed as she squeezed his face "It's your official Welcome to Equestria Super Duper Party!"
X shook his head to get her off him "I don't understand... after what happened you would act this way towards me?" X asked as he looked at all of them
Twilight walked over to him "It's as like I said before X, no pony here hates you" she replied, giving him a smile in the process
"You need to stop living in the past silly filly!" Pinkie exclaimed as she carried a slice of cake "Now how about you enjoy yourself! Go on and have some fun! Mingle around with the everpony or... perhaps you would like some time alone with somepony special?" Pinkie said as she nudge him
X blushed slightly at her last statement "Yeah...anyway. I appreciate the sentiment but I don't think I'm cut out for this"
" Why would you say that, I mean the only reason I could think about a pony not wanting to party is because they've never ever been to one but that would be silly I mean..." Pinkie looked at him with her mouth opened "Don't tell me you have never been to a party before?"
X rubbed the back of his neck "Well..."
Flashback: Neo Zion Dance Club, Korhal
"...As many of it's citizens like to enjoy the nightlife, the ones who attended the club tonight may have a different opinion about spending the night outside their homes after the unexpected and somewhat strange event that ruined their good time"
"Have there been any injuries reported Kate?"
"Thankfully, only slight burn injuries that should be cinch to cure for the medics. It's still unclear as to what exactly caused the fight in the in the first place and even more unclear as to how a soldier ended up flying across the dance floor and into the DJ's booth . But some citizens have several theories going from a bunch of young adults having too much fun to a drunk off-duty Firebat in the mood for a brawl. What we do know is that the investigation team will have their work cut out for them. This is Kate Lockwell reporting, UNN news"
"Thank you Kate. You've heard it hear folks, it is never a good thing to mix alcohol with fiery tempers. Coming up next, the hot burning sensation that's sweeping the systems. Muta wings, are they going...X...X!"
X snapped out of his mind and looked at Twilight "Are you ok?" she asked, her head tilted slightly to the side
"Yeah, I kinda drifted off there. What I was saying is that it's been a long time, since I've had a... party"
Before he could react, Pinkie was right next to him. He was constantly surprised by her. How exactly did she moved so fast? How could she appear out of nowhere? Did she have something under her hoofs that allowed her to walk on the ceiling? "No need to worry, I'll show you everything there is to partying!" She exclaimed. He smiled sheepishly as she led him towards the middle of the room "It's really easy X, all you have to do is..."
For most of the party he would spend it talking with the ponies. Rarity would constantly thank him about granting her the opportunity to experiment with the suit while telling him her many ideas. He would nod his head in agreement to everything she said with hopes that she would leave him alone. Rainbow egged him about the race and the whole cloud hitting thing. But the topic that brought her to tears was the one about him and Fluttershy at the hospital, much to X's dismay. As for Applejack and Twilight, they approached him with more questions about him. When he was finally left alone to relax, both princesses took the opportunity to speak with him.
"How are you enjoying the party X?" Celestia said
"I certainly wasn't expecting this" X replied
"It's exactly how Miss Pie had planned it from the beginning. After all, it is in these kinds of activities that she excels"
X took a quick glance at the pink pony. She was bouncing around, dancing and smiling. "Well I have to agree on that" X replied "Whoever did the whole catering is good. I've never tasted something as amazing as those sweets"
He soon regretted saying those words. In a instant he felt the air inside his lungs leaving him "I'm so happy that you liked it!" Pinkie exclaimed as she hugged him "I knew that you would enjoy everything from the party! The cake,the balloons, steamers, that weird dance you did and the surprised look on your face that brought a big, BIG smile to my face. Well, I always tend to smile but today is one of those super spectacular Pinktastic days!" She squeezed him even more, making some of his bones give an audible pop
"No... problem pinks...let me go now please...I can't...breathe" X said, struggling to get her off him.
"Okie dokie!" she replied, letting him go. "Huh...Pinks... I like it!" Pinkie exclaimed as she continued to enjoy the party
"Jeez, she's got quite a grip" X said as he stretched his wings "Anyway, I have a something to ask you both. Something that slightly bothers me"
"What is it X?" Luna said raising an eyebrow
Can you two actually read my mind? Or was that simply part of the whole me going crazy?"
Both rulers stared at each other, giving of a somewhat mischievous smile. Perhaps it was both. It hard to say really.
"So you can...ah hell." X said as he gave out a sigh. Both Luna and Celestia chuckled
"Do not worry, we promise not to interlope in your thoughts" Celestia said as she smiled Most of the times at least
"Not funny" X replied as he gave them an annoyed look while both of them chuckled slightly "Can others to the same? It can be tiring to keep up my mind guard up at all times"
"There's only a couple of Unicorn's powerful enough in magic to be able to read minds" Luna replied "You already know one"
X looked at Twilight for a second , who was chatting with her friends "Figures it would be her"
"There's a reason why she's my student X" Celestia said. He could make out a certain feeling of pride coming from her tone of voice "Anyhow, you should enjoy the rest of the party. After it's over do come to the throne room. We must talk about some arrangements we have made for you" Both of them, left him alone. He pondered as to what exactly was it that they had intended for him. As long as it didn't involve hospitals or anything of that nature it was fine by him.
By the way X... you should go ahead and talk to her...How else will you be able to express your feelings for her?...
I have no idea what you're talking about Luna...
It's never a good thing to lie X...it won't get you anywhere
He turned around towards the princesses, he could see them giggling slightly as they walked away. Rolling his eyes, X walked away and headed towards the table full of sweets. His mouth was watering as he looked at all the food. However, he remembered the spectacle he did when he first ate food with flavor.
"Better take it easy, don't want to hear another lesson in proper etiquette courtesy of Miss Twilight" X sad in a soft tone before he indulged himself.
The day was beginning to end, the sky slowly began to take on the orange tint that signaled the approaching night. All of the ponies that attended the party headed towards the throne room since both princesses requested their presence. As they left, several servants entered the room to clean up after the party. They soon found out that X's reputation as a voracious eater was true as they looked at the sea of plates that were on top of the table.
Upon arriving at the throne room, they saw both rulers smiling warmly at them "Greetings everypony" Celestia said. All ponies bowed to her and greeted her except for X who instead nodded "The reason why we have requested your presence is because we wish to discuss the matter of X's new living accommodations as well as other important news"
"New living accommodations?" Twilight asked
"So I'm going to live outside the castle for now?" X said as he stepped forward
"That is correct X" Luna replied "Tia and I have come to the conclusion that it would be best for you to live in Ponyville. There you will learn all about the elements and hopefully be in peace until we can figure out a way to bring you back to your home"
The last part of Luna's sentence made Flutter somewhat sad, she didn't want him gone. Twilight on the other hand focused on the part that mentioned her home. "We also feel that you do not feel comfortable staying here" Celestia added
"You're right. Don't get me wrong, this place is amazing and definitely fitting for both of you... yet it's not something that I'm used to and I doubt I'll ever will"
"We understand and respect your feelings about our home" Celestia replied, giving him a slight nod
With her eyes glistening with hope, Twilight looked at Celestia "But if X is going to live in Ponyville then that would mean..."
"Correct Twi, X will have to live in one of your homes" Celestia replied. All the ponies were ecstatic with the news. The fact that he would stay with them was something that they didn't not expect. All of them rushed towards him, with the exception of Fluttershy who gave him some personal space
"Awesome X will stay with me! We still have some more flight training to do" Rainbow said as she grabbed him
"What?! He'll stay with me. Trust me X, you haven't lived till you tried our famous apple pies" Appejack rebutted as she pulled him away from Dash
Rarity slowly walked towards them and used her magic to pry Applejack away from him "X must simply stay with me. After all, we have already agreed to try and fix his dashing suit" She said as she walked away with X
A sudden pink flash appeared and whisked X away. Rarity quickly turned around and saw Pinkie carrying of X. "Nope, nopepity nope. X and I will have loads of fun baking cakes and cookies! Won't we X'sy Wexy" X had an annoyed look etched across his face.
When an aura of purple surrounded his body and levitated him. He gently descended next to Twilight "Actually since X promised to teach me some of his magic as well as me having the responsibility to do the same, he'll stay with me" The others quickly trotted towards them and where ready to commence the whole show once more
"Girls please!" Celestia said , calming them down. X gave out a sigh, then looked at her and whispered the word thank you "While your hospitality is very much welcomed, we have already decided were will he be staying"
"You have?" X asked
"Yes, you shall be staying with Twilight for the time being" Luna said. The other ponies had disappointed looks across their faces
Celestia quickly noticed "Now my little ponies no need to be upset" she said "You may of course pay a visit to him anytime you wish" All them perked up. "The reason we selected your home Twilight is because we would you also like for you to tutor him on the Harmony and friendship"
"Don't you worry princess. I'll be the best teacher X has ever had!" Twilight said confidently
Hopefully better than miss hyperactive flier...
Be nice X...
What did I do?..
Celestia then turned her attention towards X "Besides you living there, there are several other things that you must know"
X raised an eyebrow and gave Celestia a quizzical look "Such as..." he said with worry reflecting of his tone of voice
"While we have no quarrel against you and certainly do not resent you..." Luna said before Celestia steeped forward and approached him
"Others may not feel the same the same way" Celestia added "You see, news about what happened did manage to sneak across and several worries about you and your future actions have definitely surfaced"
"I can understand that and I stand by what I said. I do not resent anyone" X replied
Celestia gave him a smile, she could tell that he was sincere "Because of this we have no choice but to put you under house arrest"
X gave an audible groan "Does that mean I can't leave without having them looking after me?" X said as he pointed a hoof at the Mane six
Celestia placed a hoof on her chin and slighly tapped it "Correct. Though if you wish, you may also opt for the option to be in the dungeon for the next several months" The regal pony said as she gave him a smug look
X gave a sigh "I'll stick with the first choice"
Twilight walked over to him and place a hoof on his back "Don't worry X. I promise I'll do my best to keep you entertained. Say why don't we have a slumber party this week?" The other ponies were in agreement though not as much as Pinkie as she bounced even higher than before upon the prospect of having another party that involved X.
"What do you say X?" Twilight asked
"Oh oh! Say yes, say yes!" Pinkie exclaimed as she bounced even higher. X stood there with an indifferent look, trying his best to ignore them. However when he glanced them for a moment he saw them giving of an innocent look. Their eyes were even larger and were actually shining and their mouths were quivering slightly. Pretty much was the look that a puppy would give when it wanted something
"Ugh...fine...whatever...Just stop with the staring is creepy as hell...more so then usual" X replied. Pinkie and Twilight gave out a chuckle seeing that they were victorious with their charms "So when do I leave?"
"As a matter of fact, the train is waiting for you right now" Luna said
"Meaning that you leave for today" Celestia added "I do apologize for this being so sudden X"
X waved her off "No need to worry, I'm sure you have important tasks to take care of without having me wandering around the halls"
Celestia smiled and nodded at him "I thank you for understanding X" She then addressed the other six "As for all of you, do remember that you have a job to accomplish , I still expect you to each complete them accordingly"
"Yes your majesty" they all said in unison
"I thank everypony for taking the time to be here. I wish you all a good day" Celestia said "Take care, all of you"
As they left the room, X stopped for a moment at the door. I know I said it before...but thanks for everything...
Remember what I told you X... The princess of the moon said in a sing songy voice in his mind
Still don't know what you're talking about Luna...
He turned around for a moment seeing the princesses smiling warmly at him. He gave a slight smile before he left the room. Quickly he joined the group as they all headed towards the station.
...Ponyville...Not the most original of names...but beggars can't be choosers...
X continued to look outside his side of the window. Mountains and green hills decorated the land, add the sun slowly hiding behind them, it gave him a relaxing feeling. The trip for him came up somewhat unexpected. He knew that he wouldn't spent all his time in a castle in fact, X was slowly getting bored of the same long halls and decorations that gave it it's royal atmosphere, definitely not his natural environment
...Nice scenery...might as well make the best of the time I'll spent in this world until they figure out how to bring me back...huh...sort of feels like a vacation or whatever comes close to one at least...
X could hear the soft chattering of the other passengers. To them he was just another "normal" pegasus, which was good enough for him, though he could make out that several of them were speaking about him and his previous actions. But as long as they thought he was another Pegasus then it didn't matter what they said. The last thing he wanted was to have others trying to figure out every single detail of his life and him explaining what he really was.
"Umm...X?"
He turned his head around and saw Fluttershy next to him "Oh hey, is there something wrong?"
"N..no. Is just that...I was wondering if I could sit next to you...if it's no bother of course...
"No, of course not" X replied. He scooted over a bit to give her some room. She sat next to him, trying to keep herself from blushing.
For a while, it was silence that the two exchanged. Fluttershy would try to make eye contact with him but turn away at the last second while X would try to keep his mind clear. But every time he would look outside his window, Luna's words would buzz around his mind like an angry bee
Talk to her X...how else will you get closer to her?..
Trying to break the ice, he decided to spark some conversation with her "Uh..Flutter...May I tell you something or in this case, ask?"
"Oh,well... sure. What's on your mind?"
"It's about what happened when I was on the castle's gardens" X said. Fluttershy's mind went back to when he was stomping the flowers and scaring the birds.
"I'...haven't said I'm sorry..." X then looked right into her eyes "I know that you have a strong connection to nature and what I did to those flowers was something that really bothered you... What I'm trying to say is that I'm sorry, for everything I've done that has saddened you"
She was quiet for a moment, letting his words sink in. She could tell that he was genuinely apologizing, slowly a smile appeared on her face and quickly followed an embrace "I accept your apology X" she said "You're a good pony X"
He gave out a slight chuckle "No, no I'm not. After all, there's still some room for me to improve" She game him a warm smile and leaned her head on his shoulders. X blushed slightly at her, it was not something that he expected, and neither did she expected to actually do it.
Every single time I'm around her...Am I...actually falling for her?.. He looked at Flutter, who now had her eyes closed.
"By the way..."
"Hmm..."
"Can we please try out best to not remember what happened at the hospital. You know the whole... needle thing"
"...I'll certainly try..." Flutter replied as she nuzzled his neck. Giving of a slight smile, he closed his eyes as well allowing sleep to takeover both of them.
A couple of seats from them were Twilight and her friends talking among each other. She wanted to spend some time with him though not as much as a Flutter did. However, X dismissed her, saying that she would have plenty of time to answer her questions as well as teach him the next day.
"They look nice together wouldn't you say" Rarity said as she looked at the two ponies. X's head was leaning on the glass window while Fluttershy was resting on his shoulder
"They do. You sure were right about X having a soft spot for Flutter, huh Twi" Applejack said, however she didn't receive a reply from her friend "Twi?"
"Maybe is got something to do with...no,no that would probably cause change in hair color..."
"Twilight dear, don't you think you should relax until we get home?" Rarity asked, seeing her friend mumbling and writing on a piece of parchment
"She's right Twi, after all he did promise that he would teach you tomorrow" Applejack added
"I know, it's just that is exciting about learning new things. Especially in the field of magic" Twilight replied. Her eyes glistened as she imagined herself with the ability to go invisible as well as other unique magical abilities "I know I he said to give him some space, but do you think I should go over there and asked him?"
"Twi snap out of it!" Appelejack exclaimed "Give the fella some space"
"You're right, I'm sorry. It's just so exciting to think about!" Twi said as her eyes glistened once more. The other ponies simply rolled their eyes. It was going to be a long trip for them.
Night finally arrived, as well as the train with all the ponies. With the starry night sky above them, they each said farewell to each other before leaving for their homes. X followed Twilight, she did her best to act as a proper tour guide, giving of the highlights of the town. While most ponies were slowly retreating to their homes, the few that managed to see him began to whisper and talk about the new guest that Twilight had. The gray stallion didn't say much, at least until he saw where he would be staying.
"And here we are!" Twilight exclaimed "Home sweet home"
"You live in a tree?" X asked
"Well, it's also the town's library, though not many ponies come to check out a book" Twilight replied "It's kind of a shame to tell you the truth"
"So this is... a treehouse..." X said as he scanned her home ...I find that somewhat...clever...
Twilight used her key and opened the door "Please, right this way X" Entering her home, he was impressed by the amount of books that were on the shelves. There were books on top of tables, laying on the stairs, next to the chiar, acting as pillows for the couch and even some in the kitchen sink, which was weird to him but decided not to question it
"Quite an amazing sight, no wonder you know so much about many topics" X said as continued to look around
She smiled at his compliment "Thanks X, though there is always something new out there to be discovered"
X gave a slight chuckle "Oh you have no idea how much there is"
As X got to the living room, he heard footsteps coming from the second floor. It continued, as the sounds then began to reach the stairs until finally he saw who was behind the sounds.
A small purple dragon was yawing. It rubbed its eyes in an attempt to get a better look at his mentor "Twi...I know that you tend to stay awake past bed time, but can't today be..." Spike's words were cut short when he saw the gray pegasus in the room
"Who..who are you!? What are you doing here?!" the dragon asked as it assumed a defensive stance "The only reason that you would be here at this hour would be because... THIEF!" the dragon yelled, quickly it grabbed a pan
X stood still as the little dragon charged at him "I won't let you steal anything!" it yelled as it rushed him. As it was about to hit him, X dodged him by taking a simple sidestep. Before he could take another swing at him, Twilight quickly used her magic to levitate the dragon
"Spike stop! It's alright, he's not a thief" she said
"Well then, what's he doing here at this late an hour?" the dragon asked as he gave X a stern look.
She then put Spike back on the floor and began to explain the situation revolving around X.
"...and that's why he's staying with us" Twilight finally finished her explanation
"So with that out the way. Let's start over again" twilight said as she approached the dragon "Spike this is X and X this is Spike"
"Uh, it's a pleasure to meet you" Spike said as he rubbed the back of his neck "Sorry about me trying to hit you with that frying pan"
"You wished to defend you're home from a stranger. No need to apologize for a natural reaction" X replied "Tell me, are you some kind of lizard or salamander?"
Spike's chest puffed up "I'm a dragon!" he exclaimed as he spit out a small burst of green fire "See?"
"Hmm... you and Flint would definitely get along" X said "Knowing him, he would try to tell you all about propane and the many accessories that are about"
Both of them looked at each other with a confused look. They had no idea what he was talking about.
" I know it's somewhat late but I was wondering if I may have some books to read?" X said as he walked over to a shelf
Twilight's face lit up. A pony seeking knowledge like herself it was a breath of fresh air "Sure! Is there any topic you would like to begin with?"
"If I'm staying here for a while then I'll need to learn about this land. Anything about history, the local ecosystem and astronomy shall suffice for now"
"Ok, give me a second and I'll bring you your books" Twilight went from shelf to shelf, levitating several books in the process.
"So, you really aren't a pegasus?" Spike asked
"No, not at first"
"Then what were you then?"
"A Terran and considering the fact that I've told this story before, I'll let Twilight answer what ever questions you have"
"I'll tell you all about it later Spike" Twilight replied as she continued to look for X's books.
"Well ok. Anyway I'm going back bed if that's alright" X nodded at the young dragon
"Night Twi, night, Uhm X"
"Good night Spike" Twilight said from another room. Spike retired back to the upper floor with hopes of getting some sleep, dragging his feet in the process while X took a seat on a the nearby couch.
"Here you go" Twilight said cheerfully. She laid book after book before him, soon there were several towers of books on the table.
"Well that's more than what I expected. All of this is history?" X asked looking at all the texts
"Not all of them. I've taken the liberty to add some about the Elements as well as Harmony" Twilight replied "After all I was tasked to teach you" She sat next to him and opened a book "So let's get started!"
"Actually you better get some rest"
"What? But it's alright I'm not even that tired!"
"Tomorrow is another day and if we're going to try out our psionics then you'll need to get a good nights sleep"
"Well what about you, aren't you going to sleep as well" Twilight asked
"I slept a bit during our train ride. Besides I don't need that much rest anyhow" X replied as he opened a book
"What about the couple of days you spent in the hospital?" She asked giving off a smug look "If I recall correctly you were asleep for a while"
"There's a difference between asleep and unconscious. Get some rest, ok? I promise I won't try anything while you sleep"
"Oh alright, I'll see you tomorrow then. Good night X" Twilight replied as she headed to her room. X looked back at his book and began to read...
History of Equestria Volume I
Chapter 1: The sun and the moon
For several centuries we've been under the watchful eyes of our fair ruler Celestia. Under her wise guidance, we've lived in peace and harmony without needing to worry about war,bloodshed or turmoil between all Ponykind. Yet besides her, there is another ruler that looks after us when our eyes are closed and our minds are drifting in a field of dreams. It is fair Luna that brings us tranquility in the night and lets the moon and the stars shine with magical splendor. Both powerful and kind, yet during a dark time not all was at it should be. For it would be the youngest of the Sisters that would suffer from a terrible curse. But before we delve deeper into this topic, one must first understand just who are the two Princesses. Who were the ones that came before them. And Who was responsible for the day that will live in unwanted infamy.
No special notes at this time other than I managed to somehow post this chapter. Hopefully I'll be able to get a break in the coming weeks, but I'm not holding my breath and also may be able to get something I've had in mind done One certainly can hope. As always, hope you enjoyed what you've read and here's me wishing you a good day.
