Heir to the solar throne
Guilty hearts
Celestia feared she was about to lose her family once more, Luna knew the truth and Twilight didn't know who she was anymore.
"I just don't know what to think" Twilight said, her mind was all mix up, her emotions were going all over the place.
"Twilight don't blame Luna, Luna was under Nightmare Moon's control. When your father died...I never blamed Luna for his death and neither should you" Celestia said, Twilight didn't even know she was Celestia's daughter, she wouldn't be mad at Luna for her father's death.
"I hardly know him" she said, Celestia was a bit happy to hear Twilight say those words. Celestia knows Twilight wouldn't hate her aunt or seek revenge for his death. But Celestia wished Kind Heart had gotten the chance to know his daughter, and for Twilight to know her father in return.
"Twilight, I'll answer all of your questions but I have to see Luna" said Celestia, Twilight nod her head, she understand why Celestia had to leave. "Goodnight then" Twilight said as she walks out of the room.
Celestia knew where to find her sister, the very place where she lost her soul to the darkness.
"Luna" Celestia entered the old castle they use to share, the castle was in the process of being restored, but it was still damaged from their battle and time.
"I'm a murderer" mumbled Luna, Luna was overwhelmed by guilt, more guilt that she ever felt in her entire life.
"No you're not" Celestia insisted, Celestia tried to wrap her wing around her sister but Luna just pushed her away. "I should have told you anything"
"No...you did the right thing...now I know my sins" Luna mumbled with a tone of guilt.
"Sister, he would have died anyways" Celestia said trying to comfort her sister. "He was mortal after all...and there's a chance Twilight is as well"
"Sister, I can't live...knowing what I did...what I did to you..." Luna said, as glance at her sister; Luna's mind processed the last part her sister had said. "Twilight may be mortal?"
"I have no idea if Twilight inherited immortality or not" Celestia said, Celestia hated thinking of the idea of Twilight dying; Celestia wanted to spend eternity with her daughter but, she had no idea if she could.
"Tia...I'm so sorry" Luna said as she started to cry, Celestia held her sister in her hooves.
"It's not your fault, Luna I've forgave you long ago, now you must forgive yourself in order to be at peace once more" said Celestia as she stroke Luna's mane.
"Sister...I just need to be alone" Luna said, Celestia gave Luna another hug before she teleported away. Celestia's world was coming crashing down, her sister knew everything that happened and now, she saw herself as a criminal, and now her daughter didn't know who she was.
"Twilight? May I come in?" Celestia had to clear everything up with Twilight; she needed to understand the entire story. Celestia waited for awhile but no answer came from the other side, Celestia opened the door and found it empty, Twilight was gone. "Twilight?" Celestia knew where her daughter had gone, but she wasn't sure if she should follow.
It was the middle of the night, but Twilight didn't care one but, she wanted answer from her 'parents' and she wanted them now. Twilight knock on the door and didn't stop until her father answered, Nightlight with his messy mane and sleepy head was surprise to see his daughter this late.
"Twilight...'yawn'...what's the matter?" Nightlight asks Twilight just entered the house; Nightlight closed the door behind her.
"Why didn't you tell me the truth?" Twilight demanded Nightlight turned on the lights; Twilight Velvet came down as well.
"What do you mean?" Nightlight ask
"That I'm princess Celestia's daughter!" shouted Twilight, Twilight was expecting looks of confusion or that she was crazy but her parents were blank. Nightlight and Twilight Velvet knew this day would come, they were expecting it since Celestia thought of telling Twilight when she was older.
"It's true" Twilight Velvet said, Twilight just look away from her parents, her parents who lied to her for years.
"Why didn't you tell me anything?" Twilight ask still refusing to look at them
"Princess Celestia told us everything, Kind Heart, the nobles and what she did. The princess didn't want anypony to know the truth about you and that included you, the princess look for years for a family she could trust" Nightlight explained, Twilight Velvet could just imagine what her daughter was feeling.
"When she found us...we were living in Manehatten at the time and we only had your brother" Twilight Velvet continued, Twilight was surprise to learn that her parents and brother lived in Manehatten before. Twilight felt betrayed, her entire life she thought, she was Twilight Velvet and Nightlight's daughter, a simple family who've lived in Canterlot since 'her' parents met.
"Ponies knew at that time, that we didn't plan on another foal...so having a five year old of all sudden" Nightlight said
"We moved to Canterlot, a new start, new ponies, and the princess could be near you" Twilight Velvet said, "When you became the princess's student it was just luck, neither of us planned it but princess Celestia was happy. We let her see you as much as she wanted; she had the right since she could never truly be with you"
"Did you ever love me? Or were you just taking care of me because Princess Celestia orders you too?" Twilight ask, Twilight never thought she would be feeling this, but Twilight hated her so called parents.
"Twilight that's not true!" Twilight Velvet said, she tried to hug her daughter but Twilight just pushed her away
"I don't want to see either of you again" said Twilight with an angry tone of voice, before either Nightlight or Twilight Velvet could say something, Twilight teleported away.
"We should have never hid this from Twilight" Twilight Velvet said as she started to cry
"We had to dear, Princess Celestia order us not too" Nightlight said, as he held his wife in his hooves
Twilight just walk in the streets of Canterlot, the night breeze was just the thing Twilight needed; Twilight enjoy walking at night with nopony in the streets. Having the moon shine over Canterlot, the cool air making the only sounds during a quiet night.
"Who am I? Everything I knew was a lie" Twilight mumbled
"You're Twilight Sparkle" Twilight gaze down towards the ground, a large shadow meet her own.
"Please leave" Twilight look away from her mother
"No" Celestia walk closer to Twilight, she wrap her wing around her daughter "You are Twilight Sparkle, former element of harmony, and Princess of Friendship. That's who you are! In the past, the present and the future. Twilight that what matters, your past doesn't matter, yes, your past isn't what you thought it was but your still the same"
"But for my entire life...I was living a false life" Twilight said, Celestia frowned at her.
"Twilight! The life you've lived so far isn't a false life! It's a life that anypony would want, a life which I wasn't able to give you" Celestia said, Twilight finally look at her mother, she slowly smiled at her.
"But everything I thought..." Celestia place her hoof on Twilight's mouth
"What you thought and what really happened means nothing right now, I want you to be happy with the life you have, be grateful for the ponies that care about you" said Celestia as she kissed Twilight on the head. "I've done many mistakes in my life but I'm still grateful for it, I have you and Luna and that's all I need"
"But what about Kind Heart?" Twilight ask, she wasn't comfortable saying father or mother for the moment. "Would have wish to have never met him?" she ask
"Yes, I would live through every day with Kind Heart all over again...even the day I lost him because he gave me you" said Celestia as she held Twilight in her hooves, Celestia parted from Twilight "Twilight...would you please spend a day with me?"
"Alright" whispered Twilight while she wrap her hooves around her mother
