Solaris's story
Chapter two
Previous ChapterNext ChapterDid I do something wrong...? Solaris looked around at the ponies as she landed back with her class mates, self consciously walking toward Golden Cloud, anxiety consuming her. "Was I that bad?" She asked, mere seconds from tears. Golden Cloud shook her head and composed herself, "no not at all Hun why...I haven't seen something like that since I was a filly. That was--" "wonderful!" The teacher was cut off by a booming voice. Princess Luna descended from where her and the other princesses sat and trotted right up to the scared filly. "That was a wonderful performance, thank you for letting us see thy talent." The princess bowed to the filly.
The *princess** is bowing to me!* Solaris though with absolute shock as she took a step back. "U-um thank you P-Princess L-Luna." She tampered and then scolded herself for sounding so lame when she spoke to the princess.
Luna stood up and smiled down at the filly. "How would thou like to become my apprentice?" The crowed, including Solaris gaped at the Princess of the Moon in absolute shock, others in horror (mostly from the colts and fillies who flew) Celestia walked over and stood beside her sister, "I knew you were thinking about taking a pony under your wing but I always assumed a...well...a unicorn?"she was obviously hinting for her sister to reconsider.
Luna shot daggers at her sister and folded her wing around the dark blue filly, "I have decided I will take on a Pegasus. After all, even a Pegasus can have their own magic, can they not? Dear sister?" There was something else hidden beneath her words that made the older sister bow her head did step away. Luna turned her attention back to Solaris, "well little filly? What does thou say?" She asked, her smile hopeful and forced.
She opened her mouth and did something that made the Princess of Twilight proud...
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!" She hopped around the Lunar princess excitedly shouting 'yes' over and over again till she tired. "Guards!" Two bat-pony guards trotted over to the Princesse's side, "yes m'lady?" They asked in sync. "Go and help the mother of the filly pack their things while I show Solar Ring where she will be staying." Solaris stopped in mid bounce and looked at Luna with wide eyes, "I'm going to live in canterlot? Is ma coming too?" She asked. Luna chuckled, "of course silly filly, now come, let us leave." Each Princess said their goodbyes then they left.
As Solaris stood beside Luna in the chariot she leaned down and whispered something in her ear, "by the way young filly, thou cutie mark is extraordinary." She praised. Solaris's eyes widened and looked down at her once blank flank where now was a dark black cutie mark with the planet Saturn surrounded by bright blue and gold stars. "....Yes!" She cheered.
