As you probably know I am Starlight. When I have no disguise I look somewhat like Luna minus the flowing mane, mine is smaller. Another thing about me is I was unicorn, and a very powerful one at that! My cutie mark looks like this:

So anyhay this was my life until later then it all changed

"Starlight get up quick before the celebration starts" Yelled my Mom from down stairs of the tree-house, that was in the town of canter lot.

The 'summer sun celebration'. And as the name said I went to celebrate well the sun I guess.

At the celebration there was cake, dancing and well everything you would want at a party. So as I went to a group of friends and someone asked,"hay how about we play some games!"

"Yeha" we all shouted.

Then we began to set up the posts for a game we called 'chase'. How it workes is the unicorns ride atop the pegisi as the teams of earth ponies run between the posts with a stick and pass it to the next pony in line, until they have all got to the other side. Simple right? The catch is that the unicorns use a harmless spell to attack the earth ponies as they run what the spell does is it stops them from moving for a about 10 seconds. The unicorns and pegisi and on those teams to and only shoot at the other teams.

So we began the game. I was riding atop Fredrick and as he followed Erin as I shot at her. I had pretty good aim but she was good at avoiding but then I managed to get one lucky shot in and she was stopped. She got going again soon and I kept shooting but did not land one shot that round.

Later when we were about to start another game princess Luna came up to us and asked,"May i play?"

I was pushed forward by Fredrick So I replied," well sure"

Luna joined the game. Erin was running again as Luna, Fredrick and I were chasing here shooting the magicial beams at her and multiple times being hit. When she finally made it to the end her total time was 7:39 and a normal time was around 2 minutes, with the addition of luna to our team we won the game with no trouble.

At the end of the game Erin said,"that wasn't fair Luna is too good at this game".

I looked over at luna and back at Erin,"True she is good at this game but what if we played again and she played for both teams!"

Luna did not have the reply I expected,"alas a have royal duties to preform"

"Oh how could we forget the moon must be lowered and the sun raised"

"Come on let's watch"

"Of course we will"

We all want to the open filed and watched as the sun was raised. It was amazing there was no better word to describe it. The equestrian flag was raised as well as the sun.

The next day there was school again a lot of foals hated school but I did not, I liked collecting knowledge of spells and other stuff.

School was rather uneventful.

But after school was not uneventful, for me anyways I was going to learn more advanced magic with Luna! She knew a lot of powerful magic, almost as much as celestia!

As I trotted to a house where Luna was at that moment, I noticed that the house was different than normal, there was the smell of bacon flowing out the windows. Bacon was my favriot food and still is now.

When I entered the house I saw luna cooking bacon, this was odd as she did not often eat bacon so I asked,"what is all the bacon for?"

"To eat of course" we sat down at a table and began to eat the bacon which was amazing, more than most bacon, it was crispey but not burnt and without extra grease. The coulor was a golden brown and looked almost more like bacon than any other bacon! The smell was the most majestic thing I had ever smelt in my entire life!

I asked luna with excitement," how did you make such good bacon, it's the best bacon ever!"

She nodded in agreement,"I was trying a cooking spell I recently learned about. If you want I ca—"

"Can you teach me please, bacon has never tasted so good!" I asked almost too much excitement!

"I was about to ask you if I coul—"

"Please"

"I was about to tell y—"

"PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO MAKE THIS BACON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"I screamed with too much enthusiasm.

"As I was about to say, yes I will" she finally got to reply.

"THANK YOU"

So she began to teach me the cooking spell. I didn't cook much nor did I find it interesting but this was bacon and not just any bacon this was the best bacon I had ever tasted and I'm sure no one else had tasted better bacon. I tried the spell and right after making the bacon i taste tested it. It was almost as good as the bacon luna made but not quite. So the then luna tried it and told me it was amazing.

That night i practiced the bacon-cooking spell-all night that is and regretted it in the morning 'well at least there is no schools today' I thought to myself.

At the time a normally would Luna taught me more spells, for starting fire, creating light and haveing it stay in a place, spells that made fireworks and much more!

But then one day luna asked me,"how would you like to learn battle magic?"

"But know one here except alicorns know battle magic!"

"Well you could be the first unicorn to learn but you can not tell anyone that you know it"

I thought a while about this, battle magic was dangerous in the extream not just to those around you but to yourself mentally. It gave you a sense of power and often superiority, and that could drive to insanity. After a few minutes of thinking I agreed.

***

It was not until almost a year later that I learned battle magic. It took hours of studying and practice to learn and control but I did it. I was probably the youngest unicorn to ever learn battle magic. In that time I had learned a great deal of other things as well such as teleportation, disguise spells( I did not know it was changeling magic ) and more.

It was almost time for the summer sun celebration and when I got home luna looked worried ( I may have forgot to mention that she was my mother ) I decided to ignore it, for now anyways it was time to celebrate! At this time I was 17 equestrian years old and about to become an adult.

I went outside and played some games with some friends and we discussed where we would go in life later.

"Everyone it is almost time for the sun to be raised"some pony yelled.

"What the hay, where is the sun"
