The Rising Shadow

Chapter 10

Old scars

As I fell I waited till I got enough speed to then extended my cape and glide. I was looking for a place to pay my respects I then found it there was a medium sized hill a perfect place to catch the sun rise I began to descend and then I was back on solid ground I then took out a throwing spear that was located under the gauntlet and began to carve something in the dirt and then burning it in place to keep it from being disturbed.

The carvings read R.I.P Barbra Miller, R.I.P George Miller, R.I.P captain David, I fell to my knees and took off my mask and cried, everyone I loved every one I cared for has died for no reason, because their lives were taken from them carelessly who says the same wouldn’t happen to twilight or the others was this really my destiny or a curse casted upon me. As I was lost in grief a thud came and hit the ground and a voice followed it as well “shadow, is it? What are you doing out this early?” the voice said I didn’t answer back. Because of how grief stricken I was, I didn’t hear it. The voice sounded again “shadow, are you all right?” the voice said then came the sound of hooves steps coming closer to me. The figure was just over me and looked down a small gasp came from it as well as a hoof came to my shoulder I turned around and saw the other pony I met when I gave the others pizza the only thing I could remember was she looked a lot like Celestia but was a tad different she had a dark blue color to her as well as a flowing mane that looked like the night sky with stars. At first I was startled but only at first she was majestic in a way I couldn’t describe, she then spoke again “I’m sorry for your loss really I am” I closed my eyes and nodded my head she spoke again “I don’t believe I introduced myself my name is princess Luna co ruler of this land.” I opened my eyes and looked at her that name really suited her. “What are you doing here” I asked her “well” Luna said “my sister told me to retrieve something of yours, a plane she called it” I replied “oh, right I did ask her that. I crashed it in that forest over there” “you mean the everfree” I replied “is that what it’s called?” Luna nodded I then said “well since I’m out here I might as well show you where it is” she nodded again “would you like me to carry you there?” Luna asked. I replied “thanks but I’ve got it” after that I said “computer activate exterior propulsion rockets 45.5% discharge” the computer replies “command acknowledged” as soon as you know it my back starts to hum, and up I go several feet in the air, I then  extend my cape, and start to glide forward. I looked down and saw Luna with her jaw dropped but she soon snapped out of it and flew up and kept to my side.
