The Price of Harmony
Raised by a human and a zebra, shunned by civilisation, a young alicorn discovers acceptance, love, and the price of harmony. An entry for The Most Dangerous Game.
"Have you asked of yourselves what's the price you might pay?" ~Enjolras, Les Misérables.
You're not entirely sure why you have wings. Dad says that there's no reason you shouldn't, but you know that unicorns have horns and pegasi have wings, and nopony could be both at the same time. You guess Dad doesn't understand because he's not a pony, but since everypony in town shuns you both the only one you have to ask is your mentor and friend, Zecora, but she doesn't like to talk about pony matters.
In the end, it doesn't really matter. You've got groceries to fetch from Ponyville, and potions to learn to make. Zecora says today you're going to try to cure Poison Joke again…
A fun little piece, not edited as much as I'd like, for The Most Dangerous Game contest. Note that this fic contains:
1) A red and black alicorn OC.
2) A(n unexplained) human in Equestria.
3) An OC falling in love with a major character.
4) A seventh Element of Harmony.
And last, but by no means least:
5) Second person perspective.
This is basically the kind of fic I would run away from and hide behind a sofa to avoid reading. To any of you brave enough to give it a shot, I salute you and hope you somehow enjoy The Price of Harmony.
