The Secrets Revealed in Winter

Chapter 2: Speaking to The Trolling Mare

As Midnight flew away, trying to get away from her cousin and her past, she bumped into her best friend and roomate, The Trolling Mare.

"Oh, hey Midnight what's going on?"

"Hide-m-me..." Midnight gasped, spotting Rainbow 300 ft. away.

"Why?"

"Rainbow Dash-chasing me..."

"Oh! Go behind me, I'm a strong mare." She joked.

Midnight shyly crouched down behind the white Pegusas, waiting for Rainbow to be distracted.

"Hey! Midnight?" called Rainbow.

'Oh, hey Rainbow!" Why are you looking for Midnight?" Asked The TM.

"I kinda made her upset..."

"Oh, well I haven't seen her!" said The TM, kicking her hind leg back, nudging Midnight.

Midnight began to zip away.

"Um...bye now?"

"Fine, bye..."

Rainbow twitched her ears.

She heard crying.

She zipped to the park, the source of the sad sound.

She spotted Midnight whimpering her eyes out, in a tree.

Midnight heard twigs crack.

She cocked her head and saw Rainbow flying next to her.

She stood up, and flinched, waiting for Rainbow to hurt her.

But instead, all she felt was a gentle hoof on her shoulder.

Midnight felt Rainbow wrap her wings around her.

Midnight gasped and store into her cousin's magenta eyes.

Rainbow gave her a soft look.

Midnight wanted to look away, and never face her horrid past and actions.

"So...where are your parents?"

"...They're...dead..."

"R-really?"

"Yeah...wanna say anything else to make me cry?" Growled Midnight.

"Midnight, I thought you knew I didn't mean it..."

"I-I...did...I just...get so...mad...for no reason..." Tears were streaming down Midnight's face.

"Do you know why?"

"Werepony..."

Now Midnight was on the ground, staring in a puddle.

Whenever she thought about all her past, her eyes turned yellow.

Rainbow saw this, and pondered Why would such a terrible thing happen to my sweet cousin?[\i]

Midnight didn't know where she belonged anymore.

Sometimes it hurts her-a lot....so much...that she cries herself to sleep at night-every night unfortunately.....
