So now I’m explaining how this all really happened, keep that in mind so you remember this is not a live TV show or anything like that. Ok you good? Let’s go…
I was at the bar with some Guard buddies, and one of them really upset me enough to run away from Canterlot, to do something stupid, and it went something like this.
I was sitting at the barstool, drinking some of the fresh cider they sell, when a Royal Guard walked in. The Guard looked at me and smiled as is he knew me, he sat next to my bar stool and ordered this drink. I sighed and rolled my eyes after he drank it.

“Gotta problem Lighty?” He asked “Or do you not know me huh? Names Heavy Scout.” He shouted proudly.

“How come you think I don’t know you? I’M YOUR COMMANDER!” I shouted back.

“Ease up, Nightlights giving you grief again…” He paused, watching my face turn from annoyed to anxious. “Wasn’t that stallion you’re friend, the one who tried to protect his daughter? Pretty stupid if you ask me. ”
That’s when I stormed out, and grabbed my armour to look for whom I wished to rescue; I owe it to Bladeheart to find his long lost daughter. After getting ready I flew for hours, and then token up camp by a lake, I stared at the silver water.

“Don’t worry, I’ll find her! You saved my life, I’ll save yours, just passed on.” I muttered to the stars reflection. The glistening moonlight made my eyes sparkle as I looked up to it. Slowly I shut my eyes and fell asleep, the tip of my hoofs stroking the silky lake water. The next mooring I got up got my bags and flew west.

“CYAN PONY! HELP ME I’M TRAPPED!” I heard then straight after that, a gunshot. My wings stopped flapping and I went straight onto the ground. After waking up I was picked up by lots of bat ponies, then it hit me. Heavy told me the truth, the Nightlights are back.

“You found her, my daughter!” The leader shouted when they threw me on the floor. My bat Dad stood proudly above me, smirk on his face.

“How am I you’re daughter? YOU FOALNAPPED ME! I DIDN’T BELONG HERE!” I let it all out; bat dad looked shocked and devastated, but looked confused at the other bat pony they threw in.

“Let me go!” She shouted “You’re not my Dad either! I BELONG TO BLADEHEART!” She looked at me, like she knew me, maybe Bladeheart told her about this filly that he rescued, and looked after. I sighed knowing I failed him, and started crying right there in front of everypony. Bat dad looked startled.

“Look, you don’t have to be my daughter just…” His face went white when he noticed what I was wearing. “GET HER!” He shouted so suddenly. They all jumped on top of me, capturing me since I was already weak from falling. They pushed me into a cell and locked the gate, pushed a tray of mushy food and walked away. I felt a cold shiver and looked around
There was a water bowl, like I’ there pet dog or something, maybe I am now. In the corner there was a hole in the ground padded with metal, a toilet. The food tray was next to the letter box. I just sat there in the middle, thinking of what I just let happen. “I’M SO SORRY! YOU TRUSTED ME AND I’M SO SORRY!” I sobbed, repeating myself like a broken record. All the other prisoners were staring at me, and my armour. I just sighed and got up, then all I felt was pain, falling back onto the floor.

“What’s wrong?” A voice asked. I looked everywhere until realising I’m probably crazy and it’s in my head

“Who are you?” I asked the voice as it chuckled

“Poor kid. Don’t you remember me? Bladeheart.” He replied as I tried to get up again.

“I’m sorry I let you down.”

“When was that? You have my sword in your armour you know from when they gave it to you, now NEVER GIVE UP! GOT IT?”

“I’ll never give up; even if I have to fly to the highest cloud I’ll never give up!” I token out his sword out from my armour and busted the door down with it, Straight away alerting the bat guards. “Clever bat ponies.” I muttered and ran off, adrenaline stopping me from collapsing in pain. I smashed through the bat filly’s cell. “Get on my back!” She did what she was told and I got her to a safe place to relax for a minute.

“Your covered in….BLOOD!” She whispered to in in horror. Looking at a nearby cracked mirror I noticed I was wounded really badly. Filled with panic I dropped the sword and looked at myself until I heard a group of ponies after us. Quickly I grabbed the sword back and hid the bat filly in a corner.

“I know, but how come you’re a…you know.” I asked

“A nightlight, my mother’s one of them.” I stepped back, pondering on how that could be, Maybe I got the wrong filly.

“But you’re Dad’s a guard, right?” Her head turned towards me in surprise.

“YOU KNOW MY DAD!” She screamed. After I told her to shush I told her everything that has happened until right this moment. Her eyes sparkled every time I mentioned Bladeheart’s name, until I got to where he died, and tears started rolling down her cheeks. I tried to comfort her, it didn’t work, but as we heard hoof steps from upstairs we both stopped.

“We’re going to die aren’t we, but like heroes.” She looked me with her bright blue eyes. “Just like my dad.” I smiled as I grabbed the sword, threw her on my back and flew away; I couldn’t fly straight, and landed straight onto a balcony and blacked out.
