My name is Twilight Sparkle and my life was complicated and still is. For those of you that don't know then let me explain.
You see six years ago Princess Celestia sent me a copy of Starswirl The Bearded's book of spells and asked me to see if I could complete a spell even Starswirl couldn't finish. When I cast the spell to see how it worked nothing happened, or so I thought. It turns out that the spell changed the elements of harmony around as well as my friends' cutie marks.
Once I figured out how to help my friends remember what made them special I had a spark of inspiration and knew how to finish the spell, however, when I completed it a blast of magic burst from the elements at me and for a while I thought I was either dead or dreaming. I mean it felt like a dream, though I don't know if the dead dream, and if so what do they dream about--nevermind, almost went off topic, anyway, while I was in the dreamlike state Princess Celestia said that it was time to fulfill my destiny and I was back in Ponyville as an alicorn princess, and I thought that was the most complicated part of my life, but it wasn't.
About midnight that same day, before my coronation, my friends Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Applejack and I were out stargazing . As we were watching a meteor shower, we started making wishes on them. Pinkie and Rainbow Dash's wish's were the easiest to figure out, Pinkie's being that we would always be friends no matter what, and Dash's being to be in the Wonder Bolts. Rarity's wish was that her fashions were everywhere in Equestria and Applejack's wish was to get a lot of bits to help her family. Fluttershy's wish was also to be expected since she wished that all her animals could be happy as much as they were.
My wish was something that sounded as innocent as it was, a chance to start a new life, a chance to change the world and make it a better place for all who live in it, a chance to find love in the most unlikely of places, but most importantly, for all of us to always find time to be with each other regardless of the situation or reason and not let anything force its way between us and drive us apart. What we didn't know and I never expected was that our wishes were going to come true in more way then one.
I thought the most surprising thing I was going to discover was finding out I'm a princess, only to see that my biggest surprise was going to be when a light-blue alicorn filly fell from the stars. Imagine my surprise when she said she came from the future to find her mom, whose name, much to the shock of everyone, was Twilight Sparkle, My Name.
At the time I still didn't want to believe it and today I truly found out that I was more than just a mom, but a beacon of hope to a filly who fell from the stars to save a dying future, with eyes that were filled with happiness, remorse and hope. Hope for a brighter future, Remorse for letting her resentment get the better of her and Happiness that brought tears of joy from seeing her mom again that I thought would never stop. If I thought my life was complicated then, then it got a whole lot more complicated when I became a mom.
This is my story as much as it is hers, but every time I look back my heart fills with joy and pride and for as long I live I am proud to have called Stardust my daughter, my life, My Future.
Author's Note
this is the first story I've written before so sorry for any errors or odd sentences and grammar mistakes.
Stardust is the main focus of the story, but twilight is the main character so if you have suggestions for any upcoming chapters I would appreciate the help as I have almost no clue how to think up new scenarios' for the story other than the one that come to my mind and those are few and far between.
also since this is my first time writing don't expect updates frequently as I don't know when I'll get started of the chapters and if any of you want, could make a cover art for the story that has Stardust surrounded by the mane six. Stardust has a light-blue coat, lavender eyes, a rainbow-spectrum mane and tail that is styled like Twilights, and a cutie mark that is a galaxy with a rainbow starburst in the middle and has the sun on the left and moon on the right.
Note: this is not the same second chapter that I had before as I was trying to fix it up for the newly updated chapter one. but if it is confusing then tell how I should fix or setup either chapters.
This is all that i got with the second chapter before i canceled so those that wish to revive this story can have something to go off of.
Ponyville
Present Day
9:00 P.M
Six Years After Coronation
Ever since Stardust was born she had always been a kind, generous and an honest filly growing up, a trait that lead her to easily make friends with the elements of harmony, and as such she always looked out for others without any regard for her own safety or well-being. Even the CMC (Cutie Mark Crusaders) looked up to her as a guarding as well as friend, though in Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon's case they tried to be friends as a way to be even more popular than an actual friend. But the destruction of Ponyville and the sheer amount of death was enough to sap almost all hope from Stardust.
Only a small spark of hope was right in front of her, but was quickly dying as she was crying over the crumpled and battered mare that, after using up almost all of her energy, was still fighting for life and was losing fast. The mare was tired of fighting for her life in the vain attempt to keep from closing her eyes, but that would still come at a great price. It would mean that not only would the finally get a long rest, but it would mean the she would be leaving the one pony she valued the most. Her daughter.
"M-Mom, p-please don't d-die on me. I d-don't want to be alone, so please, don't die," Stardust said trying hard not to lose hope from the destruction around her or the tears welling up at the sight of her mother lying in a crumpled heap before her.
Her mother had promised that she would always be there for her and protect her from any threat. Her mother, a lavender alicorn with magenta-colored eyes, navy-blue hair with a strip of pink and violet running through the middle and a six-pointed starburst cutie mark, was struggling to breathe. Looking up at her daughter, the alicorn managed to speak with what little energy she had left, "Stardust, don't cry, this was not your fault." She said through pained and ragged breaths.
"Mom, it is my fault!" Stardust screamed, barely able to suppress her sobbing. "If I hadn't made you worry about me by running away then maybe I wouldn't have been tempted to use that spell" Stardust said still sobbing in her mothers coat.
Her mother still had enough strength to move. "Oh Stardust. Even if you hadn't run away somepony still might have found and used it" She had managed to pull Stardust closer to give a final hug before she said one more thing that reignited that spark of hope that was slowly dying. "There is one last spell i can teach you, but be warned it is a completely untested new spell that i made a while back" *Cough* *Cough* She stopped as a coughing fit tore through her throat. She then proceeded to place her horn atop Stardust's and channeled what remained of her magic as well as the memory of the spell directly into her mind. Once the process was completed she started to convulse even more violently then before and was aging faster then possible. "I gave you the rest of my strength so you can cast the spell, but be warned it's a one time use spell and even i don't know what will happen if used. If only Rainbow was still alive she would probably 'say that to be awesome you need to take risks squirt' or something like that"
Author's Note
I don't think this is going to be easy going as I thought.
I don't want it to be long, but I don't want it to feel rushed. this my first story after all and trying to come up with a story is tough, even one that doesn't make sense at the moment.
I could use some help with editing, figuring out what direction I should lead the story, small and large mistakes and a way to blend it together so that it just feels...right.
I don't know when the next chapter will be written, but I don't think I will be updating for a while till I can get some help writing the chapters or getting some editors. thanks for reading my newb rant on how inexperienced in writing I am, though I am not without proving myself that I can still do it.
