Dear Diary:

A few years ago when I came back from the moon I was alone again. Again no-pony stayed up for my night....No-pony cared. This time my sister saw my sadness and gave me something to amplify my powers, it looked like a crystal. She made me promise that whatever I did to make myself happier I wouldn't hurt anypony or change their will. I don't think she expected what I did though.

I thought for days on what to do. I disregarded plan after plan. In the end I did the only thing I could think to do to end my loneliness. I took the jewel out to a field where I knew I wouldn't be disturbed and I waited till the moon was high and I was at my strongest. I summoned all my strength and a poured it through the Gemstone. Since no pony can create life I made my creation out of the bugs and the grass, it was so hard, I was so tired when I finished. Exhausted and half dead I looked up from where I had collapsed in the grass, In front of me stood my creations. Eight nocturnal ponies four male and four female all with bat wings and all in a uniform grey. I realize now I hadn't gotten very creative when I had made them, they all look the same.....I don't care though I love them all!

I was so tired they had to carry me home, I still remember the shock on my dear sister's face when they dragged me through the castle doors.

Soooooo that's where the bat ponies came from.....I'm rather glad I started this Diary I hope Tia never gets ahold of it...
