The missing princess

She's running and running. She won't stop. Her ears are blocked by the ponies saying mean and confusing words.

"Who. IS. THAT!?"

"Is she a pony from out of town?"

"Look!! She's an ALICORN!!!"

Running and running. That's all she could do. Run. Twilight never forgot the cruel words made by her friends.

We do not know you.

Cruel. They were so cruel and so.... Horrific.

She shuttered at the thought and started crying. Running to the Everfree Forest. That's where she belonged. Twilight would get eaten by the timber wolves and never be known again. That's where she belonged. Isn't it? Nothing will stop in her way of running. As fast as a griffon, as swift as a mocking jay.

Mocking...... Jay? No.. It's the mocked pony. Not the Mocking jay.

She will be that beautiful jay that had no use in life to begin with. The pony being mocked, the jay that would get mocked. Jut like in the book with Katmare and Seeta. Except Katmare had a use in life, Not Twilight. Her life was horrid. No friendship, No magic, No love?

God, Help me!

"Where was this book exactly taken? And who took it?"

" HOW SHOULD I KNOW YOU CRAZY LITTLE BRAT!?!?!?! AM I THE MOON TO YOU!?!?!?"

Luna felt hurt at her sisters words. Celestia wanted to take her words back that instant. She watched as Luna's eyes looked so hurtful and so... weak! HEr beautiful blue mane wasn't waving any more. It drooped with terror and sadness. What had Celestia done? At that moment, Luna stood, trying to show courage and no sign of gratitude at Celestia's big purple eyes.

" I-I- I will check at the old library for c-clues. Y-you... do w-whatever you like."

" Oh Luna! I- I am so sorry for what I sa-"

" NEVERMIND THAT! JUST DO WHATEVER YOU WISH TO DO! YOU THINK I'M A PIECE OF GARBAGE SENT TO THE MOON, HUH?!  I BET YOU WERE FAKING THE FACT THAT YOU EVEN CARED!! ALL THOSE TEARS OF DEVASTATION WAS MEANT FOR NOTHING!" Luna roared.

She was crying now. Her tears dropped one by one  down the grand hall that was burnt and destroyed of the explosion. Celestia didn't think her sister was garbage. She did not fake the worry of Luna getting sent to the moon.  She only regretted everything that had happened just now. But now was not the time to be worrying. She had to find the book. She could apologize later and save a sorrowful bucket of sorry's for later. Celestia stood up and trotted down the halls towards the road and headed to the Old sister palace. There, she would find clues to this mysterious pony's whereabouts. When she entered the palace, she felt something weird. Something as if someone was spying on her.

Oh Celestia. You sometimes think of the most invulnerable imagination. Or is it my imagination?

" So the dear Celestia has finally come. Now, she shall return her payment and I will show her that I should rule in Equestria. Muahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!"

BUMP!

Twilight was dazed at the crash. Her cheeks flushed red with embarrassment when she hadn't noticed where she was going. What are you thinking Twilight!? Are you insane!? You should have never even thought of leaving Ponyville in the first place! Twilight stood, catching her balance from all the dizziness. She decided to apologize to whoever she bumped into AND apologize for to her friends for leaving. Rubbing some mud off, She said a polite but weary sorry.

"Oh its okay. I got used to it."

It was a stallion. He brushed his orange coat off and fixed his mane. His cutie mark was a sign of a shield with a yellow flash on top of it. Flash. Was it really true? Was it really him? He stood up and took hold of twilight's hoof. He picked her, with cheeks that were as bright as cherries.

" F-f-Flash?" Twilight stuttered.

He stared with confusion.

"Do I know you from somewhere?"

"Oh... Ummm.."

She knew that since no one knew her, Flash Sentury wouldn't have known her either.

"N-no... I umm... I-"

"It's okay. You probably heard my name from the canterlot guards. Right?"

"Yeah! Totally! I, er, heard you from the guards? What guards?" Twilight asked.

" Ya know! The guards that protect canterlot and the crystal empire?"

"Oh, Umm.... Yeah!"

She blushed with embarrasment. I can't believe I'm such an idiot sometimes!  Her face was a bit rusty and bad but she had to find out why she was so... invisible. Maybe Celestia knows? No, I don't want to disrupt them from their work. I guess there is nothing to do but introduce myself!

" I haven't really introduced myself to you. I'm princess Twili-"

" PRINCESS?!?!?" He gasped.

" OH! I mean I'm Twilight Sparkle!! Not.. umm... a princess!" She rephrased.

"Don't joke around with me... princess.. You have wings AND a horn!! You ARE a princess! I didn't mean to bump into you! I-I guess I wasn't polite! I'm so sorry and I-I-"

She giggled a bit. Twilight didn't know that Flash would be such a prankster! On the other hand, He didn't know her, so it wouldn't be too surprising to hear it.

" It's okay. I know it's hard to belive it. You probably never heard of me before, have you?"

"No... I guess I didn't study to much in foal-school..."

"And you somehow managed to become a guard, huh?" She laughed.

" I- er...."

"It's okay. Anyway it's nice meeting you. I have to go right now." Twilight said. She knew she had to go even thought she was too busy having way too much fun.

" Oh.. Umm... Alright! Nice meeting ya, Princess?" Flash asked.

" Oh come on! I don't like going formal you know! Just call me twilight!" She giggled once more.

" Okay then, Ms. Twilight!"

"Ugh! It's just Twilight!" Twilight said, Laughing histerically.

" Hehe. Hey, Are you free this week? I don't really men to bother you or anything, I just wanted to know just in case."

" I'm fine anytime. Thank you for asking!" Twilight smiled.

Twilight started walking away when she had an idea.

" Hey! Do you want to come wi-"

He was gone. I guess he left. She breathed out a sigh. Twilight knew that she was way too young to have a colt friend, not that she liked him or anything. Did she?  It was like a mystery to her. It even made her think how she doesn't know secrets that were actually her own. It became such an enigma she almost forgot that she was supposed to look for some way to find out how she isn't real. Was she supposed to be real in the first place? So many questions to answer, in such little time, she thought to herself.

It's time for me to know some secrets... And secrets that need to be answered.
