You are my sunshine

A Dragon's Twilight

Twilight sat in the train to her home, thinking about resent event's. She didn't really know what to think though. All the fact's pointed to her being the daughter of Luna. But... Her entire life had been a lie. To learn that allot of big thing's in your life that made you into into the pony you were was just a lie? It wasn't what she was expecting to happen. What would she tell her friend's? What would she tell her... She thought for a moment. Her, honorary family? What would she tell Spike? She slumped in her chair. What did her, mom expect of her? Did she expect her to become a princess? And then she remembered the journal. A tear escaped her eye's. She would never see her father. Even if he was still alive, she

would never know who he was.

Twilight looked out the window watching the rolling hill's fly past her eye's. She closed them, wishing it was all just some bad dream. But she knew even Luna Princess of the Night, and a Dream Walker, could not grant her wish for this to be a dream. She remembered when life was simple. No world saving, no Princess of the Night, nothing but studies. While she would never give even a speck of dust for things to go back the way they were before Luna, she wished for life to be that simple once more. Tear's began to flow freely from her eye's, rolling down her cheek's and falling off her chin. Why did it have to be this way? Why did it have to be her? Why did she have to be the long lost daughter of Princess Luna? Twilight let her head fall in her shaking hooves, her shoulder's shuddering with sob's.

The train shook to a stop, the wheels screeching in place. Twilight sat up and wiped her eye's dry. She got off the seat and trotted to the door. Sniffling, she open's the door and exit's the Friendship express.She looked around, hoping nopony saw her mess of a mane or tear stained coat. Walking along the edge of the town, Twilight dragged herself to the library tree.

"Oh, um, hi Twilight. So, how was your meeting with Princess Luna? If, uh, you don't mind me asking that is." Twilight jumped at the sudden voice. Even if it was sweet and quiet, the mare couldn't help but feel scared at the sudden voice. Turning her head, she saw a butter yellow Pegasus. Her cotton candy pink mane hid her face. The half of the mare's face that could be seen, was worried, sorry and scared. "Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. To loud?"

"It's okay Flutter Shy, I just didn't expect that is all. I'm sorry, but I need to get home. I'll tell you some other time." Twilight gave a fake smile before scurrying off to the Golden Oak's Library. If she was going to tell the girl's, it had to be when they were together. Twilight held back her tear's. She had to tell the girls. She began to gallop blindly through the street's, to afraid of having to see another pony. From a boutique, a marshmallow white Unicorn watched her fellow Unicorn gallop through the streets.

"Hm, I wonder what has Twilight so worked up. Girl's, when Flutter Shy get's here for her fitting, we need to talk." A group of three ponies went up to the window, watching the scene unfold. There friend, Twilight Sparkle, most organized and clean pony, was blindly running and crying trough the streets of PonyVille.

"Hey Twilight! What's wrong?" A sky blue Pegasus with a Spectrum of color's on her head, called out to the lavender Unicorn. The Unicorn opened her eye's and gasped before galloping away, hoping nopony else saw her.

"What in the hay is wrong with ya Rainbow? Ya don't jus' call out to a pony who has no idea where in Tartarus she's goin'! Ya'll have ta think fore' ya act." An orange mare, with freckles on each cheek, a blonde mane and sour green eye's smacked the Pegasus on the back of the head. "And ya don't go askin' what's got there eye's leakin'!"

Twilight smacked into the wooden door, falling back. Looking around, she rush's to open the door and get inside. The first thing she saw was a purple and green dragon, cleaning the book shelves. His head twisted to see the sudden noise, and a scaly eye brow raised. "Uh, hey Twilight. How was your meeting with the Princess? Did she tell you of some secret evil on the moon? You look like you just saw a ghost." The mare snapped her head left and right making sure nopony was there to get a book.

"No Spike. She told me something worse, world altering, but not deadly. Well, maybe deadly. But I'll tell you tomorrow,  oh, and yes, it has to do with the moon." The mare rushed to her room, not wanting to be dragged from her thought's. Twilight sighed. Why was life so hard for her? Why couldn't she just sit on a cushion, drinking her tea as she read a book? Why couldn't she just have a nice picnic with her friend's in a field? Why was life so complicated? Twilight turned to lay on her side. Twilight knew life wasn't this hard for most ponies. Most ponies played with there friend's, worked simple jobs, and never had to get called to a meeting with Royalty. Most ponies just watched the world get saved, and waited for her and her friend's to help save Equestria. Most ponies didn't have to go through the stupid Nobles even if they saved the world three times and helped save the world twice.  Twilight growled.

Why, of all ponies, did she have to be in this position? Most ponies didn't have to learn there the daughter of the Princess of the Night while in there early Twenties. There was knock in the doorway, from small, scaly, pudgy claws. Twilight turned her head to face the teenage dragon. "Hey Twilight. I brought you your dinner. A Daffodil Sandwich, just the way you like it." His voice was worried and careful. Twilight smiled. Sitting up, she invited the dragon in.

"Thanks Spike. I think I should tell you about what happened. It's something I want you to hear first." The dragon fidgeted on the StarSwirl themed bed.

"About that, the girls came over. They want to know what was going on. They said you ran away from Flutter Shy and you ran around blindly in the town. You uh, think it might be okay if they listen to?" The mare sat, wishing it was a lie. She didn't want her friend's there, when she explained to her adoptive son why her parent's aren't Mr and Mrs Sparkle. And why her name is not Twilight Sparkle. But she then realized something. She had to tell them, so why not just get it over with and be done with it. Nodding, she turned to the door.

"You can come in girls!"
