Foals of the sun.

Twilight's life

Previous Chapter

Since her adoption, Twilight had been a favorite of her family but quite a trouble child like the time, her brother, Shining Armor attempted to do his homework but she wanted to play, thus turning her coat white and her mane ablaze and burning him but luckily not the homework.

But other then that, her parents noticed something about her when they entered her into magic kindergarten at the age of 4. She was a independent foal with her only friends being her babysitter which was truly her older sister and her brother. She would only care about books and studying. Something her parents were proud out but they wanted her to know the magic of friendship too.

But the mane thing about Twilight was her abnormal magic. She would have constant magic surges even after the age of 1. Something that didn't happen often enough to be explained and the fact that when she was annoyed her magic would set her hair into flames.


One day though, her parents took her to the summer suns celebration where her true mother would raise the sun. After that, Twilight read book after book to master and attempt to control her abnormal magic. After weeks of learning and reading, her parents signed her up to Celestia's school for gifted unicorns.

She was happy at first but little did she know that to get in, she would have to hatch a dragon egg using her magic. She laughed nervously and started to attempt her magic but every spell she tried failed. But suddenly a blasted of rainbow light corrupted her magic into hatching the egg but not just that.

Her magic went out of control, turning her parents into plants and the staff into birds and also growing the newly hatched baby dragon into a full grown dragon and having sparks of random magic her and there. Her eyes had also gone white and she was having a hard time getting back in control.

But a white hoof tapped her on the shoulder, the white eyed foal looked up at the mare who had stopped her to see Celestia smiling. Her eyes slowly turned back to purple and she lost the glow that her surrounded her. The baby dragon turned back to normal and began sucking it's spiked tail.

Her parents turned back from plants and the judges groaned after being turned back to normal too. Twilight looked around and whimpered thinking she had done something wrong.

''I-I'm...s-sor..''

''Twilight Sparkle, I haven't meet a unicorn with this much magical ability.''

''Huh....''

''Would you like to be my own personal student?''

''Huh?!''

Twilight blinked, looked at her parents who smiled before jumping up into the air like she was flying.

''YES!''

''Oh and one more thing, Twilight?''

''There's more?'' asked Twilight, stilled in the air before falling.

Celestia smiled at her daughter and pointed to the lavender flank which now had a mark of a pink star overlapping a white star with 6 more mini stars around it.

''My cutie mark!''

She began hopping around yelling 'Yes! Yes! Yes!'. Everypony in the room giggled and smiled at the energetic 'unicorn'. Candace walked into after hearing the noise and saw her grinning and bouncing little sister with her cutie mark causing her to smile.


School was interesting to say but still Twilight keep to herself though she did have another friend now, her baby dragon which she had named Spike. She was motherly/sisterly to Spike and most could class her as his mother.

When Twilight turned 10, Spike could talk now being a 2 year old dragon but was mainly classed as her assistant. Spike was raised by pony society so he didn't get greed and his aging was slower then most dragons. Most two year old dragons were at their full size yet he was barely bigger then a 8 year old filly.

Twilight had also gained more control over her abnormal magic and was mainly around her teacher. She was also never late and even stayed behind after school for magic training with two other unicorns. One named Lyra Heartstrings and another named Amethyst Star.

She didn't become friends with them just worked with them silently. But she did learn that Lyra had earned her cutie mark, a lyre by playing a school play and that Amethyst Star had earned her cutie mark by helping her mom who was a jeweler.

She grow up around these two and were probably the only others who could have been classed as 'friends' but they were rarely around each other but she did know about them.

When she became 20 with Spike being 12, she had found out that Amethyst had become a mother. Her foals name was Tootsie Flute, a small unicorn filly. It wasn't a shocker when she found out that Amethyst had moved to Ponyville to raise her baby daughter. Nor was it a shocker when she heard that Lyra had a soul mate.

Though she wasn't really bothered and spent most hours in the library for a good five years till she was sent to Ponyville to learn the magic of friendship.

While in Ponyville, Twilight had adopted a young alicorn filly by the name of Nyx and learned not just the magic of friendship but parenthood too. She adored Nyx despite knowing where the young filly came from.

Nyx had a group of friends despite being shy and timid. Her friends were the Cutie Marks Crusaders or simply known as the CMC, Dinky Doo, daughter of Ditzy Doo/Derpy Hooves and Tootsie.

Twilight also had a group of friends. Applejack, the older sister of one of the CMC. Rarity, also a sister of one of the CMC. Pinkie Pie, a energetic party earth pony. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash.
