"What in Equestria do you think you're doing invading other ponies' privacy like that!?" Boomed our Dad.
"Well you wander into our room and look through our stuff anytime you want to..." Blaze muttered to herself.
"We just wanted to give you..." I sort of trailed off.
"WE BROUGHT YOU A DARN GIFT FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE!!!" Blaze burst out, obviously enraged by the fact we had done something nice for them and then we got treated like dirt.
We both put on our sweetest puppy-dog eyes to try and cheer them up.
"Oh, I just can't stay mad at you two." Our Mother said. "come and sit down." We did. Our mother was always kind and caring, no matter what. every time she looked at you her beautiful eyes twinkled like shiny bright emeralds and her blue and purple mane always seemed to glimmer and sparkle.

I hastily brought the heavy hamper over to where they were sitting and Blaze helped me lay down the picnic blanket. "you know, it is Nightmare night tomorrow...and I kind of wanted to go trick or treating with you. It would make it a lot more fun than just going with Blaze; we would be a whole family." I slowly brought up. I could sense that my mother wasn't going to say yes, so I stuffed a sweet pastry in her mouth. It was the best kind of thing to appeal to her with, because cranberry was her favourite. My dad, however, responded differently. "I'm sure that can be arranged. If you can make us our costumes." He knew I loved sewing.

Out of the blue, I suddenly said to my mother, "Will you dance with me?" She loved dancing. I loved dancing. We both loved dancing and singing. She moved over to a big space away from the picnic and started twirling and dancing majestically, like a beautiful swan. I got up to go and join her but my dad stopped me and tapped Blaze to get her attention. "Close your eyes." he said to each of us. After we had, he slipped something onto my wrist. I imagined he must have done the same to Blaze. "Open up." He said at last. we both looked immediately down do our wrists. We were now both wearing bracelets with our birthday gems as the main bead. Mine was emerald, as I was born on may 9, and am a taurus. My sister is a capricorn. She got an aquamarine gemstone as she was born on January 10. "These are from me and your mother. They are a symbol that we will both love you under all circumstances."
"Thanks, dad!" I said quickly before going over to dance with my mother.
"I want to give you some music!" I said, and began to start singing my favourite song.

'And I never saw you coming, baby. And i'll never ever be the sa-a-a-ame. This is a magical place.'

That is as far as I got before I heard the ground beneath her crumble and crack. She was way to close to the edge!
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!!"
