Bladeheart
Childhood.
Load Full StoryNext ChapterMaybe this is the time I should introduce myself. I’m Light Armour, I used to live in the ever free forest were I was raised by some bat ponies. They called themselves the night lights, that’s what my bat dad said anyway. I loved it there, even if I didn’t know I wasn't a bat pony. They tried to teach me how to fly, it was a big mistake. I fell into some brambles; the thorns were digging into my coat so I screamed, until somepony dragged me out. The pony swung me onto his back and flew of. The last thing I saw of the bat ponies was them being evacuated from the village. My bat mum and dad sobbing from their lost child. I was pretty young when this happened so I wasn’t effected that badly, but I guess I was devastated before I realised I didn’t belong there. I was stuck in a castle suite in solitude for a while.
The royal Guards told me that I belonged to a family in Canterlot, but I didn’t want to believe it. I tried telling them that I was a bat pony, but they just sighed and went. Five minutes later they came back with a mirror, and plopped me next to it. There was the first time I saw that cyan coat, Black and blue mane and yellow eyes, and normal wings. They were a bit red but I was already patched up from the brambles. I failed to believe that this was me for a while. I still believed that I was a bat pony. Until they decided I should go home. I cannot describe how it felt seeing my real parents again. For a second I thought that the purple unicorn and the blue pegesi were strangers. But then I remembered what happened, plus the Guard explained everything. Turns out my house got invaded when I was just a baby pony. The bat ponies decided to take the most precious thing some family’s ever owned, they ended up with me, a cart, a business deal and a hoofball. So I ended up being brought up in the everfree Forest for five years, forgetting my actual family and thinking I was a bat pony.
That’s my childhood up to six years of age done and dusted then. Nothing really happened until I was 10. I bonded with my real family, now I feel the pain of leaving them even more when I last saw my bat family for the last time. But when I was 10 I saw my bat family in jail. I sort of drove my bat dad crazy by yelling at them for kidnapping me in the first place. Luckily the same guard that rescued me from them saved me again, before he even had a chance of hurting me
“Watch out kid. These ponies are master criminals.” Bladeheart (He told me his name later) said
“Oh... I remember you! Do you think I can be a royal Guard when I’m older? Like you!” I asked him
“Well, let’s ask that new cutie mark huh.” He replied. I looked at my flank and there was a blue shield with a silver lightning bolt covering it, my cutie mark. I hung onto Bladeheart as he added me onto a list of pines that should be told when he…. I didn’t read the rest as he put me on the floor and dashed off. I went home after that, I was playing my game with my Pikachu suit on as my mum token a picture of me, when after an hour dad came home, he wanted to see mum in the kitchen, without me, but I wasn’t stupid, I knew it was bad. When they walked back out I was standing there. Wanting to know what they were talking about.
“Darling, remember that nice Royal Guard you met, Bladeheart.” She said her hair was sticking up so I just nodded. “He was sent to protect the city from an attack, but he didn’t…”
“He didn't win! Is he gonna be ok?” I shouted, startling them both.
“They did win, but I was told at work that he didn’t make it.” He muttered, hoping that I heard so he didn’t have to say it again. And I did, the pony that saved me twice and brought me here was gone, yet again I was devastated, this time I still cry when thinking about it. He is the reason I’m getting prepared for this mission. The reason I didn’t end up as what I thought my talent was at the bat place, messing things up.
Enough on Bladeheart now, what about those years going from filly to mare, or was I a mare when Bladeheart…..yea let’s go with filly to mare. I did well at school, until he joined, my bat pony brother.
“Hey I recognise that kid, she got my parents arrested GET HER!” He shouted. I got chased by half the school around the building, but he decided to pick me up and fly me to the top of the very high building. I decided to say sorry, but not beg. I still have some dignity left from all this. He pushed me of when what my mum calls, Bladeheart instincts kicked in and I flew into a tree and called the Guards from my mobile, they rushed in arresting my bat brother and helping me get down from the tree, and from that moment on, I was accepted as a royal guard. I left school so they could train me, and sometimes they even let me go out with another guard to help as backup.
So at 16 I graduated from training and got my armour, they say its light to fit my name, and I moved into my new flat right next to the castle, my pet Bladeheart (Named after him) Lives here to.
So ending my childhood tales, I’m now ready for battle.
