The Filly
I had dreaded this day ever since Sunset had gone missing. Declaring her death. Princess Celestia said it had to be done, with her new student and all. Her name was what- like, Twinkle Light Sprinkle? Or something. I bet she is really snobby, and her parents bought her the privilege to be Celestia's student. I hate mares like that.
It was like any normal day in Canterlot. Many ponies would pity me for being a pegasus who wasn't a royal guard in such an 'affluent ' society. To be honest I'm quite used to it. But I still liked it better when Sunset would defend me. "Bye Sweetie!" My mom said as made my way from the house. My parents weren't rich like the other ponies who live here. But why should I care? When my dad retires as captain of the royal guard, my family is moving to Ponyville.
As I made my way through the unusually large crowd, I swear I could hear magic beams going off. When I could see Sunset's old house in sight, I looked to see four large shadows and a little one dancing on the alley walls. I soon followed the shadows until I could the sound of a young filly crying. Soon finding the shadow's spot, I saw two large unicorn jocks about my age, and two mares about a year younger picking on a little unicorn filly.
"Haha!" "Loser!" "Nerd!' "Little fatty!" The voices yelled towards the small foal. I couldn't bear watching the poor filly cry as one of the jocks ripped her comic books in half. I couldn't stand it- I needed to do something. "You can't just bully a poor filly like this!" I yell as I hop in front of the filly. The filly stopped crying, but still had tears in her eyes.
  I then growled and unfolded my wings to look tougher. "What are you gonna do ya pipsqueak?!" One of the jocks mocked. Then I remembered I had hooves too. I stood on my hind legs, and punched that stallion right in the face. Apparently, I gave him a bloody nose, cause when I looked back at my hoof it was covered with blood.
The stallion wiped the blood away, and came charging towards me. I picked the little filly up and zoomed off as fast as I could. After I knew that they were far behind I landed and set the filly down. "So, uh... um... What's your name?" I said nervously. 'She probably thinks I kidnapped!' I thought. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! It's just that they have been bullying me for a few months now, and you just came like in a superhero, and saved me! Oh, and my name is Twilight. Twilight Sparkle."
"What your name?" Twilight asked as her purple eyes grew wide. "Flash. Flash Sentry."
"So what do you like to do for fun?" I asked hoping I could entertain in some way. "I like to read, play with my dragon Spike and listen to music!" She said in a sweet tone.
