Heir to the solar throne
A day with my daughter
Celestia was looking forward for today, Twilight had agreed to spend an entire day with her. Celestia took a day off and she didn't care about the consequences, Celestia wanted to awake Twilight from her sleep, but she suddenly had cold hooves. Celestia just stood in front of Twilight's door, Celestia desperately wanted to do all the things she use to do with her in happier days.
"Morning" Celestia was so deep in thought, that she didn't notice Twilight was standing in front of her.
"Morning hon...I mean Twilight" Celestia smiled at her, Twilight glance away for a moment. Twilight felt sorry for her mother, Celestia was forced to give her only goal away, wait almost a thousand years for her and then watch her from afar. Never holding her as a mother, Celestia had to hold back her emotions every time she saw her. Twilight just smiled, her mother had suffered enough even if Twilight wasn't ready to accept it, but one day wouldn't hurt.
"Princess, I haven't accept this yet and I still need time...to truly understand who I am" Twilight said, Celestia just smiled and nod her head, but Celestia desperately missed the days where Twilight called her mommy.
"Take all the time you need" Celestia said as she gave the best she could
"But today...today you can call me whatever you want...mom" twilight said, Celestia held back a few tears; she just embraced Twilight in her hooves.
"I'll take it" whispered Celestia
The two ate breakfast and went to start their special day together.
"So what did you have plan?" Twilight ask
"Hmm...Well...all the things I wanted to do is for a foal" mumbled Celestia
"Please none of that" the last thing Twilight wanted was to play with dolls and wear a dipper. Celestia chuckles slightly as she tried to think of something, Celestia just smiled when she found something.
"Let's go see your father" Celestia said, Twilight assumed her mother was talking about his grave, but Celestia surprised her with not a grave but a life size statue of a royal guard.
"Is this him?" Twilight ask, Celestia simply nod her head, she gently place her hoof on the statue's cheek. "How did he look like?"
"He was strong...in will and physically, he was very kind...too kind actually. His superiors always told him to be crueler but he refused, he was a bookworm like you but was bad in studies..." Celestia said with a sad time in her voice, Twilight can easily see, her mother desperately missed him. "At first he would admit his feelings towards me...but in time he did and he never look back"
"Do I take after him?" Twilight ask, Celestia look away from the statue's gaze.
"No, you take after me but your personality is like him" Celestia said, Celestia closed her eyes, as memories of Kind Heart returned. "He had beautiful green eyes, a coat white as snow, a beautiful navy blue mane, and he would have adored you"
"But how did I get my purple coat?" Ask Twilight
"His mother had a purple coat like you, we actually named you after his mother" Celestia said, Twilight smile, she felt a bit honoured. "Her name was Twilight Mistral Sparkle; she was a kind mare like her son"
"Prin...I mean mom...why did you put me under the thousand year sleep?" Twilight ask, Celestia took a deep breath and just sat down. "I mean I know why you did it...but why did you?"
"I'm not sure if I mention it to you, but I have no idea if you inherited my immortality or not. At the time Star Swirl predicted that you would save Luna, I had to make sure you would be there. But a thousand years...a hundred years alone is a lot for a mortal, I didn't want you to have died of old age before then" Celestia said, Celestia looking back, she now realize how selfish she was being and how cruel she was.
"So you place me in the thousand year sleep" Twilight said, Celestia look back at the statue.
"Being a single parents is hard enough, but being a ruler with millions of lives counting on the discussion you make...I know it doesn't give me the excuse but I had to do it" Celestia said as she started to cry, "Twilight I'm so sorry...I place Equestria and my sister before you...I just used you to protect Equestria and save my sister"
"Mom, please don't cry" Twilight turned her mother's head with her magic, she whip some tears away with her hoof. "I am the daughter of Princess Celestia and Kind Heart after all; I have to protect Equestria it's in blood"
"My little star" Celestia hug Twilight in her hooves and just smiled, "You always knew how to cheer me up"
"Should we continue our day together?" Twilight ask, Celestia sniff and nod her head in agreement
Twilight and Celestia did every single, mother and daughter activity they could think of and enjoy it. Twilight had never felt happier before in her life, Twilight suddenly realizes something. Every time Twilight was with Celestia she felt complete, but when she was with 'her' parents, Twilight felt like she was missing something in her life. Twilight never knew she felt like this until today, after spending an entire day with her real mother and not a fake.
"So is there any coltfriend i should know?" Ask Celestia while they walk around the castle, Twilight blushes as she look away from her mother.
"Mom...don't embarrass me" Twilight said, Celestia just chuckled at her daughter's reaction
"Well I have to know" Celestia added
"I don't have any pony" Twilight said while her face became redder
"What about that orange stallion? Hm...I believe it was Flash Sentry?" Celestia said, Twilight just stop in her tracks while her face became even redder then before.
"I barely know him!" Twilight said in her defence
"That's how it starts" Celestia said, Twilight took after her more then she thought. "Go for it" Twilight look back, confused of what her mother meant. "Does he like you?"
"I think so...but I'm not sure" Twilight said
"Then make the first move, your father was the same, I had to do the first step and the rest is history" Celestia said, Twilight thought of something for a moment and smiled.
"Alright next time I visit the empire...right I forgot about Shining" Twilight hadn't even think about her 'brother'. Did he even know the truth about her? Did Cadence know?
"Twilight, you have to talk to them, they're still your family" Celestia said, Twilight just angrily look away from her mother.
"Not yet! I'm still mad at them" Twilight said, Celestia hug her once more
"Things take time, I'm sure they're going to wait until you're ready" she said, Twilight didn't answer and he thought back of her day with her true mother.
"They're all liars...every single one of them" whispered Twilight
"Are you going to tell the other elements?" Celestia ask, Twilight eyes widen in shock, how could she forget about the girls?! Twilight had left in such a panic; she didn't even had the time explain to her friends. Twilight hadn't even sent a letter either to explain...well time was one excuse, the other she had accidentally forgot about bringing Spike with her...
"I should probably tell them tomorrow" Twilight as she nervously chuckled slightly, Celestia just shook head. Twilight her forgetful daughter in a panic, Celestia wouldn't change a single thing about her.
