The Cart

"How're you two doing back there?"

"Fine dad, we're just enjoying the scenery." Her sister answered back in a reassuring way. If her little sister could see, she thought.

The thin blanket protected the two from the sun rays. Even so, it was painful for the two to walk from one area to another in the cart because of the ground being seared by the heat. She saw her little sister laying her head on the side of the cart, staring into the desert. She noticed a pair of specs on the ground  that belonged to her little sister.

"Come on, Ellie" she picked up a pair of spectacles with her mouth off the ground of the cart, "You can't see nothin' without your glasses."

"There's nothing to see anyway but barren wastelands." Ellie replied, still focused at... nothing. This whole trip to find a new home has been nothin' but trouble.

My sister then smiled, "Oh, then I guess you won't care if I read your diary seeing how you won't be able to see me do such a heinous crime."

My eyes widened and instantly turned myself at her, "You wouldn't dare, Selene", Ellie warned her, also stamping my front left leg.

"You liked that foal we met along the way?" she smirked, on some random page she opened

Ellie quickly rammed myself into her, causing her to the diary. That'll teach my sis for reading my boo- Whoa!

"Y'know, Unicorns are known for their magic, not their pegasi attitude?" she lectured, as Ellie found myself above the ground being levitated.

"You won't get those glasses on me," she nudged the glasses away from my face with my magic.

My eyes widened again when she suddenly saw Selene grin sinisterly, "No pleas-"

"Eli, you sure you know the way?" his wife asked.

"I can't say I've been there but all the ponies been saying this road's the safest in all of the Marevada, Maya. Most ponies take this route."

"That's what I'm afraid of," she said worryingly.

He tried to reassure here "Look,  I know I'm not the fighting type but I will do everything to protect the fillies. I wouldn't have made this journey if it weren't for the future of them."

The two heard laughter from behind. Eli then felt a peck on his cheek, "Oh, Eli" Maya said as she rested her head on his neck, cheerful about the two laughing.

"Haahahah- St- Stop- hahahaa- Ok, okay- I'll wear them" she pleaded, still laughing uncontrollably because of her tickling her.

The tickling stopped and she felt something resting on my nose.

"There you go. You don't want to lose sight of me or papa and mum, would you?"

"Nnnnope," she said grinning. Both of them laid their backs onto the cart, ignoring the sizzling heat the wood had soaked in.

They then looked into each others eyes. "Hey, sis. What do you want to do the most when we get there" she asked

Selene quickly answered back, "Anywhere we go, Ellie, I want to be there with and for you."

"So would I, sis."

THUMP

"What was-"

"Shhh, stay here, Ellie" Selene said quietly. She then to take a peak.

I stood still as I watched her slightly lifted the blanket, but I was able to see a small glimpse of what was outside.

I saw a mare in uniform.
