Thought Fire and Flames

After they put the fire out, Princess Celestia came by to tell them what was gonna happen to them. "I'm terribly sorry for your loss but alas there is nothing we can do to fix it." Flames was still crying saying it was all her fault. Blaze hugged her softly before Celestia said something else "Young colt, it comes to my attention that you've applied for my school now I've looked over your résumé and I'm pleased to say that you've been accepted." Blazes eyes widened and he grinned from ear to ear and jumped for joy until he looked back at Flames ,her face was filled with distraught and her big red eyes were pleading him not to leave her behind.

"Princess if I go to your school what will happen to my sister?" Princess Celestia took a minute but said. "She'll have to go to the orphanage." Blaze was a bit sad that she couldn't come with him so he turned around to apologize but when he turned around Flames wasn't in the spot she was before. Flames was running as fast as her little legs could in the opposite direction they were in. Blaze tried to run after her but Celestia's hoof stopped him. As Flames ran faster she could faintly hear Blaze say "Please don't go..."

Flames had continued to run not having a specific place in mind. She only was to be alone and away from the placed she used to call home. After about half an hour of running with some breaks in between, Flames ended up in a small town called Ponyville. Most of the town was sleeping because it was the middle of the night, only a few ponies were awake because they were closing up their shops and some restaurants were open because it was a full house. Flames decided that she would find somewhere to stay until she could earn enough bits and build her own house. She walked through the town slowly, examining the details of the buildings surrounding her.

Flames got a few stares from the shopkeepers, she looked like she was a living piece of charcoal walking around. Afr a few more minutes Flames found an open restaurant with a help wanted sign in the window, she decided that she would get a job. She walked inside quietly trying not to make a sound and walked up to the counter. "Excuse me, but I'd like to have a job here please." The mare at the counter looked confused and turned her head left and right trying to locate the sound of the voice. Flames grew a bit impatient and tapped her hoof against the counter. The mare looked over the counter and saw Flames, all covered in soot and dirt. The mare gasped at this sight and came out from her position behind the counter. "Little filly why are you here, why have you come here, where are your parents?" Flames flinched a bit about the mention of her parents and teared up again but told the older mare her story.

By the ending of the tale the older made was crying along with Flames and hugged her. "Oh you poor thing you've been through so much and you were so brave to come here and ask for a job." The mares name was Trinity Sunshine, a middle aged mare with a light pink coat and a fuchsia mane with deal yellow eyes. She offered Flames to live with her until she was old enough to live on her own and until she had enough bits to build her own house. For about eight years Flames lived with Trinity, working with her for some tips and finally earning enough to get the supplies to build a house. Flames explored Ponyville looking for a spot to build her house but there we're no spaces left so she explored even farther, traveling into a forest far from town. Flames passed a large lake with a boulder in the middle of it while looking for a spot to live.
