Hey! Sorry I haven't been updating lately. I've been busy with schoolwork and things like that... One thing before this chapter starts. I got a bunch of views but no reviews, favorites, or follows? If you do any of those, I would appreciate that. I might consider putting this story on hold until I get at least 5 follows, favorites, or reviews.

****Galaxy Glimmer****

After the ponies introduced themselves, a bell rang.

"What was that for?" Amber asked. "Another class or something?"

"Yeah, we don't switch, though." Moonswirl said quietly. Amber nodded and smiled.

"So.. What do we do?" She asked, curious. The other mares shrugged. "When I walked into the building, the secretary handed me a bunch of papers," Amber said as she opened her saddlebag and pulled out the papers. "Maybe they mention something about what we're supposed to do." She started to look through the papers. She stopped when she found a letter to her. "Hey, there's a letter!" Amber said.

"Dear Amber Starshine," Amber said as she read the letter aloud. "Thank you for accepting the invite I sent out to you. You may be wondering, I suppose, why you were signed up for classes here. I signed you up, only because there's a threat against Equestria. Your sister, Galaxy Glimmer, has been sighted multiple times near the outskirts of Appleoosa, Manehattan, and even IN Canterlot." Amber paused. "My sister?" She lowered the letter. "I have a sister?"

The other mares sat, wide-eyed. "Galaxy Glimmer?!" Dragon Wishes stammered. "You're sisters with Galaxy Glimmer?"

"I guess, What's so bad about that?" Amber asked, looking at Alana and raising one eyebrow. Amber put the letter down on a table and the sparkling purple aurora around her horn and the paper faded.

"About 100 years ago, Galaxy Glimmer had taken over multiple small towns and was heading to take over Canterlot. She had succeeded at taking part of the south section of Canterlot, but as she was heading towards the north section, where the castle was, Celestia's army took her by surprise and had banished her someplace where she couldn't harm anypony. She eventually escaped and apparently she built up enough power to try again." Sunny Cloud explained.

"But why is she still alive? Wouldn't she have died already?" Amber asked. How could a pony live so long?

Soda and Sunny whispered to each other. Amber couldn't make out wha they were saying, but she did hear "...don't think she..."

"Galaxy Glimmer is an alicorn." Soda Heart finally said. Amber was shocked. She was related to an alicorn? Well, an evil one, but still, an alicorn?

"I wonder why I haven't heard of her before. If she's really my sister, than wouldn't you expect me to know?" Amber said. The other ponies nodded.

"I wonder why your mom and dad never told you." Moonswirl said quietly.

"Oh... My parents... are..." Amber mumbled.

"I'm sorry if I brought up any memories..." Moonswirl apologized quickly.

"You don't have to answer - but would you mind telling us how they... passed on?" Dragon Wishes asked.

"My parents were part of the Celestial army. One day, when I was 10, they had to go on a mission. Apparently, they died during the mission. They never came back. A few days later, ponies from the orphanage came and took me into the orphanage. When I asked why, they said my parents had passed on." Amber explained, slowly. She was sniffling at this, and Moonswirl had her head in her hooves. Moonswirl's back kept rising and falling quickly. Amber could hear quiet sobbing coming from her.

"Oh..." Dragon replied as she sighed.

"Let's... Let's get back to the letter to take our minds off of it..." Amber said. She levitated the letter off the table so she could read it.

"Please look out for her. I have sent you a picture along with this letter. I have my guards currently patrolling around those areas. Sincerely, Princess Celestia." Amber finished, putting the letter down. She searched the pile of papers and folders she was given at the office. After a quick search, she found a picture of a young alicorn.

"Found it!" Amber said. She held the picture up for them to see. Galaxy Glimmer was a blueish-gray alicorn with a messy purple mane dotted with specks of twinkling starlight. Her wings were blue, and her cutie mark was a 6 pointed star surrounded by a sparkling galaxy. In the picture, she was smiling. And she was holding a foal who looked exactly like Amber. The same aqua coat, the same peach and amber mane, the same twinkling purple eyes. That foal was Amber.
