so tonight is where it all begins.
Twilight Sparkle was so happy right now as it was her sixth birthday and everything was perfect! Her parents and brother took her to do everything she wanted. All day they traveled around town doing anything and eveything Twilight felt like doing; they went to a book store and got a whole new series, she put on a magic show for her family and friends that joined them. They had a picnic, then to top the day off they went to a peak that overlooked all of Ponyville where you could see Canterlot from.
But when they arrived there was a surprise party waiting, with all of her friends! Their was Applejack, with a whole boat load of apple baked goods, even some Zapapple jam. Pinkypie, standing in front of her with a cake, and Twilight thought that Pinky might have just planned this whole party maybe even by herself. Fluttershy, was singing happy birthday to Twilight, in her amazing voice with the help of her animal friends singing along with her. Rainbow Dash, was the first to see Twilight and had her guitar strapped to her back wings extended, and her rainbow colored hair still amazed Twilight even after being friends with her for five years. Rarity came over, horn glowing with magic as she fixed up a few odds and ends with the streamers, and gave Twilight a gift. It was a hand made skirt, it was plaid, with the same purple as her eyes and a darker shade with a little pink mixed in, and it being a kilt there was a jewel encrusted pin, a purple pinkish star with five stars around it each a different jewel. The jewels represented my best friends, they were red, blue, pink, dark purple, and orange. Rarity was always making things for her friends even if they didn't ask. She just loves to give and the joy though's people get when they get something. The party was amazing! With all of Twilight's favorite songs, she was surprised that the police didn't show up expecting to break up a teen party. The fun lasted un tell people started to fall asleep on the ground. Parents cleaned up and everyone went home happy! Twilight even got a call from Cadence, she was her old babysitter, the best babysitter, the best babysitter EVER!!!!!!!
Twilight was heading home with her family that night and everything just seemed perfect, like nothing could go wrong. "So Twily, how was your birthday?"the voice next to her was kind and caring, the voice of her big brother Shining Armor. She smiled at him.
"The greatest ever! And I've got a feeling that it's going to get even better when we get home." Her smile radiated to her parents.
"Oh really what gave you that idea?" It was her mother that asked this, her voice was like the bells on Hearth's Warming, strong and beautiful but it always had a bit of worry in it.
"We said we'd spend the day the way you like it." She joked, Twilight could hear the sarcasm in her mother's voice though she played dumb.
"What do you mean?" Twilight let a little fake sadness into her voice.
Her father spoke next his voice was strong and hard yet gentle, and like her mother, had at least a little worry tone to it, "What we mean is we now we celebrate as a family, and I don't think you'll like that."
No one could fake it anymore, there was joy through out the car! To Twilight this was always the best part of her birthday, when she could just sit and talk, laugh and play until she fell asleep. But this year was going to be different and it wouldn't be for the better.
******
The road was quiet as the happy family talked and sang joyfully, waiting to get home to truly celebrate this occasion! The smile on Twilight's face was the biggest and brightest in the whole car, but this strange felling came over her... it was like the Grim Reaper was now sitting in the car. It suddenly got freezing cold, Twilight was able to see her breath and she realized what was going to happen!
"STOP THE CAR!!!!!"
But it was too late! Before her parent's could register what their daughter said, another car came out of the forest, that was on both sides of the road, and slammed right into their car. Shining flinging his body to try and protect Twilight, but she still felt a lot of sharp pain blast through her body! And something sharp through her stomach.
Everything was quiet. She heard mumbled voices. She opened her eyes and saw Shining, he was fighting back a lot of pain. Something moved in the corner of her eye, it was her mother's hand. It looked as though she tried to reach back as to get them away from the danger, she was slightly twitching. And her father was the only one that was moving completely, trying to undo his seat belt.
A loud bang echoed through the night, something warm and wet hit her face, some got into her eyes and everything became tinged with red. Another bang echoed, and another!
There was a pause, the back door was open, and another bang echoed in the darkness. But this time Twilight saw what happened.
A red masked man opened the door. Shining tried to get up but the man shot him! Twilight couldn't move an inch of her body, she couldn't yell, or cry, all she could do was look through the red tint. She heard the man with the gun talking to another his voice cold as ice, "Well let's go." The other his voice sent chills down Twilight's spine.
"What about the girl?" the hard cold fact hit her as hard as the impact. All this was intentional. They were lying in wait for them!
The first man spoke up, laughing slightly. "She's been run through with a pole. Even if she's alive now, she won't make it to a hospital. Good as dead they all were except dear daddy." Cruel laughter sank into her skin. She looked at her body and found a metal rod in he stomach. Twilight's mind started to go fuzzy, and go dark...
'NO!' she thought to herself. 'I won't let them win, I'll live!' somewhere down the road Twilight heard sirens growing louder, and closer. Someone must have at least heard the accident. There was help on the way! One of the guys told the other to get in and she heard a screech of tires speeding away on the pavement.
Mere moments past but to Twilight it felt like hours. The sirens sounded like they were right on top of the car. A few moments after the Sirens stopped, someone flashed a light through the window.
"Good God!"
The light rested on everyone in the car for a brief moment, before they were removed and moved to the next, and when the light hit Twilight, she summoned all her will power and was able to curl her fingers. Just a little but it seamed to be good enough. The guy screamed to some partners on the road, "ONE OF THEM'S ALIVE! THE LITTLE GIRL'S ALIVE!" The slap of boots on pavement told that more people came, to see if it was true, she curled her fingers again. There was yelling but everything started to fade and Twilight fought hard to live. She had to! not just for her her but for her family, for her friends, and to get justice for this, terrible act.
There was a crunch of metal, some more voices, Twilight felt people pull her out of the car. She took one last glance at her dear family before they were gone. But this time she didn't see there damage... she saw them the way they did that morning, except they where glowing. And the glow was going into her!? She was laid on to her back and the wreak, and her family was gone from sight. She now looked up at the sky her eye's still filled with the blood of the ones she loved, and to see the sky once beautiful with diamonds, shining with hope and joy. but not tonight it was red, the stars looked as though they were tears of blood cried on to it, the moon's glow was as red as blood. It was like this horrible act stained it as well as Twilight. Just before she was put into the ambulance the red sky burned itself into her mind, Twilight knew she would always remember this, The Night of Red Sky.
