Connected Forever
Journey Through the Past
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIn Canterlot, the other 5 ponies have already left the Equestrian world. Twilight was all alone; except for the day she found Apple Jewel. She was now her personal protege for the school for gifted unicorns. Celestia was still the main pony for the school; Twilight was there to teach and be of help to all the young fillies and colts.
"Are you ready Apple Jewel?" Twilight asked.
"What is it Princess Twilight?" Apple Jewel asked.
" I want to teach you about the basics of magic."
"Why? I already know all that."
"Okay, let me teach you the first lesson in magic."
"But I know that too."
" Really; show me a simple levitation spell."
Apple Jewel tried to levitate the book in front of her, but nothing happened.
"So you know these?" Twilight sarcastically asked.
" Yeah I do. I might just need a little help." Apple Jewel said.
" You were just like me when I was young."
" But, you must of done better, you're a princess."
"I wasn't a princess all my life."
"What do you mean?"
"Come with me; there is something that you need to see."
Twilight's horn glew as they traveled through time. Apple Jewel and Twilight landed in the same place they met. They sat in the far corner of the room. They both saw a small lavender filly, working on her exam.
"Who is that?" Apple Jewel asked.
"That young filly over there, is me. I was nervous. That little egg was my dragon assistant Spike." Twilight answered.
Then, there was a loud boom. Apple Jewel jumped up and grabbed Princess Twilight. But she looked back and saw the sonic rainboom.
Rainbow Dash Princess Twilight thought to herself.
" Who did that?" Apple Jewel asked.
Princess Twilight didn't answer. Apple Jewel looked back.
"Twilight Sparkle." Princess Celestia said.
"Oh I'm so sorry." Twilight said.
"You have a very special gift! I don't think I've ever come across a unicorn with your raw abilities. But you need to learn to tame these abilities through a focused study. Twilight Sparkle, how would you like to become my own personal protege at the school? Well?"
"YES!"
"Oh one other thing Twilight."
"MORE? AH! My cutie mark! YES, YES, YES, YES, YES!"
Apple Jewel looked at Princess Twilight, she was in tears.
"Princess are you okay?" Apple Jewel asked.
But she didn't hear Apple Jewel.
Can you do that?! Can you explode Twice?!
Yee Haw! Now that's more like it!
Come on ponies I wanna see you smile!
Oh I am so frustrated I could just kick something!
See what'd I tell ya? 10 secons flat!
But I thought you wanted whining!
" Princess? Are you okay?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Yeah I'm alright." Twilight answered.
What?! Ya wanna go to the zoo?! Well who's stoppin ya?!
"There is another place you need to see." Twilight said.
They traveled to the Everfree forest. Close to the castle where the elder Princess's were. Inside there were 6 ponies and Nightmare Moon.
" NIGHTMARE MOON!" Apple Jewel yelled.
"It's okay, that inside of that monster, is Princess Luna." Twilight said.
"Really?"
"Just watch."
Apple Jewel looked over at Nightmare Moon.
"You may have destroyed the stones! But the elements are withheld inside of us!" Twilight said.
"You are still a unicorn. And you have friends? How come I've never met them?" Apple Jewel asked Princess Twilight.
"Don't you remember the orange mare?" Princess Twilight asked.
Apple Jewel looked at the orange mare.
"Is that my aunt Applejack?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Why yes. That's Applejack." Princess Twilight responded.
"Where is she now? My mom never told me."
Twilight casted a spell, it lead her to the grave-site where all her friends were. Twilight took Apple Jewel to Applejack's grave.
"What happened?" Apple Jewel asked.
"I can't really answer that. When I found out that she had died, I only got a letter d=sating it. That's all I can say." Twilight answered.
Tears started rolling down the young filly's face. Then Twilight started to cry as well.
"What was she like? My Aunt?" Apple Jewel asked.
"She was amazing, better than any other pony I ever knew. She was the element of honesty. She tended to the Apple farm like your mom. She was younger at the time I met Applejack. Mhm; they were my best friends. Both your mom and Applejack had a lot of issues. Your mom was all about getting her cutie mark, and Applejack was very stubborn. But overtime, they both learned so much. But I couldn't share my joy with her when I met you. I thought Applejack would be so proud of you." Twilight answered.
"Really?"
" Ah yes. But I don't think you were even born when she died."
"She died days before I was born. I'm looking at this stone and the day she died was 3 days before my birthday."
That's why Apple Bloom left early. She was carrying Apple Jewel.
"Interesting. I never thought that you were born days after her death." Twilight said.
"I didn't know either. Thank you for taking me here. I just wish that I could have seen her before she died." Apple Jewel said sadly.
"You and me both Apple Jewel. You and me both."
Apple Jewel looked down at the grave. She found a freshly picked apple on the grass.
"How does this apple stay fresh?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Your mom comes here often now with a new apple every night." Twilight answered.
"When will she be coming?"
"Soon."
"Can we stay here. I would love to see her again."
"Sure, why not."
