Little Seasons was in her room, getting ready to meet her family for the fourth time this year. She was a filly without a cutie mark, and she was worrying about it for the third time this week.

"Luna, do you think it's ever gonna come?" She asked her "sister." Luna was helping her pick out an outfit for her distant family's visit.

"Trust me, my little one. Your time will come," Luna replied to the hyper filly's question.

"Ooh! How about this one?" Seasons asked, pulling out a pink dress with colorful gemstones.

"I believe that is too formal. How about something more casual?" Luna said, rummaging through the closet filled with clothes. Seasons looked up at Luna, and wondered about her mane and how it flowed without the wind.

"How did you do your mane like that?" She asked.

"It was a long time ago, but I will tell you the story later," Luna replied, looking down and thinking about what she and her sister did to get their names this way.

"Are you okay?" she asked. She cared for her big sister deeply, especially when she was sad. They have grown closer to each other ever since that fateful day. They talked to each other in dreams and in real life, Luna telling stories of her past, and Seasons asking questions along the way towards the end.

"Oh! Yes, of course," the princess said. Seasons didn't believe her, but she decided to just wait for the story after they had met their family.

"Oh, alright," the younger one said.

"How about we dress you up in armor like me and my sister's? I can get it. It's down the hall, waiting for it to be worn by a young princess just like you," she said.

"Ooh! That would be nice," Seasons squealed, and she followed Luna through the hallway into a room, where her armor was on a table, neatly placed. It was as white as snow, glittering at the light that showed the armor. Luna grabbed each piece and put it on the little filly. After, Seasons stood back up, seeming a bit taller than her usual height.

"It's very pretty," she said, admiring her armor.

"I picked the colors out. I knew that this color would match your personality. Innocent and surprising," Luna said.

"You know me so well," she said, hugging Luna.

After a few minutes, Princess Celestia called for Seasons, saying that her family was here.

"Coming mom!" Seasons shouted, running throught the halls. Seasons saw Celestia as a motherly figure, since there wasn't anyone else who really took care of her.

They came into the throne room, where she saw her real mother, father, and siblings.

"She's grown up so fast," Radiance whispered to her husband. A year strolled down her face.

"Hi Aunt Radiance and Uncle Smoke!" Seasons said, running to hug her family.

"Let us eat in the dining room," Princess Celestia said, and she motioned them all to the other room.

In the middle of their visit, a storm was about to come. Celestia hated to cut their visit short, but she had to in order for them to go home safely. As Seasons played with the other little foals, Celestia informed of the storm and they had to go home so they can be safe.

"Why can't we stay here?" Radiance asked.

"Because if you do, you will not be able to weather-proof you home, and it might be destroyed. I also think it is a bad idea because this castle is made out of stone, and I don't think it will hold. But don't worry. We will be safe," Celestia said. They did not argue with the princess. Learning from their first mistake, the couple and their foals left the castle with the escort of the guards. After half an hour, it started to rain.

Seasons was sound asleep when she heard a faint scream from the distance. She arose from her bed and looked at the window, and she was scared of what she saw. Lightning was attacking all of Equestria, and the princesses were trying to stop it. She watched as they flew through sky, trying their best to calm down the angry clouds that were shooting lightning at the ponies. Luna shot one of the thundering clouds at a good spot, but before it disappeared, it shot lightning at her. She fell down to the ground, hurt.

"LUNA!" Seasons screamed, and she ran outside, squeezing through the guards that were blocking her way. She was at the entrance of the castle, looking straight at an injured Luna. She looked at Celestia. She was beating the deadly clouds by herself. Seasons then put her focus back to the injured princess, and she ran to her aid. She was barely breathing, almost unconscious to say the least. Thinking that is was her older sister, she said,"Do not worry about me, sister. Keep fighting to save the village." Seasons had tears in her eyes as the princess fell unconscious. She knew exactly what she had to do. She looked up at the sky and got her wings ready to fly.

"Here we go," she said.

"She took off, flying as fast she can through the clouds swiftly. Princess Celestia saw the young child and gasped.

"SEASONS! NO!" She screamed, and tried to fly up there with her, but she couldn't. The clouds didn't let her pass through.

Seasons got her magic ready to banish the mad clouds. Once her horn started to get hot, she shot at the clouds with a light yellow aura surrounding it. She learned a spell that could vanish things instantly in a book about advanced magic. She tried her hardest, and the cloud vanished. Princess Celestia was shocked at the results, for she had tried that spell many times on the clouds, but it never worked. She wondered why it worked for the young alicorn. Then she knew.

It was her destiny.

The young filly put a hoof to her head to calm down the dizziness. After a few seconds, she shot at the next cloud, and it vanished as well. She repeated this spell over and over again until not a cloud was in the sky. She passed out and fell, Celestia catching her.

"Oh Seasons, you did it. You saved us," Celestia said. She flew back in the castle to see her sister injured and unconscious.

"Is she?" Celestia asked, worried about the answer.

"No. She isn't. Just unconscious. We already patched up her wounds," the royal guard said, and the princess gave out a sigh of relief.

"Oh thank goodness," she said,"I must put her to bed. She has had a rough night." Celestial carried the tired goal to her bedroom and tucked her in.

"Goodnight my angel."

The next morning, Seasons woke up. She looked around in her room to see if anything was different. She saw Luna in the doorway.

"Luna! I'm so glad you're okay!" The filly said.

"I am hurt, but I feel better. I see that this injury is not the only thing that is new," she said, pointing to Seasons.

Seasons looked at herself, trying to find out what was Luna talking about. She pushed the covers away from her to see a cutie mark placed on her flank.

"My cutie mark!" The little filly squealed. It was a pink flower with a snowflake in the background.

"Congratulations. You are now in charge of bringing forth our seasons, my little sister," Luna said.

"That sounds like a big responsibility," Seasons said.

"Do not worry. You will not work alone. Our three tribes will help bring forth our seasons until you are old enough to handle it on your own," Luna said, trying to calm the nervous filly down.

"Oh. Okay."

The princesses announced this news to all of Equestrian. Giving copies of the new sets of rules to every town that existed. It was now certain that the ponies' jobs would now be easier because of Seasons' takeover.

It has been years since the princess had seen her family. She asked from time to time when will they come, but she had never gotten a straight answer. It has been two years since Celestia banished Her own sister to the moon, and both were deeply depressed. They moved to a new castle in Canterlot, for their old one was destroyed. It was now the second annual Summer Sun Celebration. It was held for the ponies to celebrate the banishment of Nightmare Moon, but it was a constant reminder to the princesses of a fallen sister.

Seasons and Celestia started the celebration like last time: Celestial raised the sun, and Seasons brought in the first day of Summer. All of the ponies celebrated. Seasons spotted her family. Radiance was holding a sign in her mouth that stated: "I AM YOUR REAL MOTHER."

Seasons tapped Celestia's shoulder and showed her the sign.

"Mom? What is she talking about?" She asked. Celestia's eyes widened. She knew that this was the time to come clean.

"Seasons, I have to tell you something," she said. Then she poured the truth out, down to every little detail.

"YOU DID WHAT?!" Seasons screamed, and the crowd was then interested in the conversation that was taking place.

"WHY WOULD YOU TAKE ME AWAY FROM MY PARENTS?! I TRUSTED YOU!! I EVEN CALLED YOU "MOM!" She yelled.

"I was just trying to protect you!" Celestia said.

"FROM WHAT?! BEING BULLIED FOR BEING AN ALICORN?! THAT DOESNT EVEN MAKE SENSE!" Seasons was crying by now.

"Just let me-"

"I know exactly why you did it!" Seasons said,"you wanted a daughter of your own! COULDN'T YOU JUST MAKE ONE OUT OF THIN AIR?!"

"Listen Seasons-"

"YOU LET MY REAL PARENTS SUFFER THE LOSS OF THEIR OWN CHILD FOR YOUR OWN SELFISH PURPOSES! HOW DARE YOU!" Seasons was so enraged that her horn started to glow.

"Seasons please don't-"

"I HATE YOU!!" She blasted her magic at Primcess Celestia, making her fall to the ground.

"You made me do this," Celestia said. She stood up tall, and her horn glowed. Enraged, Seasons stroke at her again, only to be engaged in a magic fight with the princess she thought was her mother.

Celestia was stronger. Her aura blasted the young princess out of existence. The crowd gasped, and bothe Celestia and Seasons' parents broke down.

"WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!" Radiance screamed.

Celestia erased all memory of Seasons. She destroyed everything that involved the no-longer-to-be princess. Saddened by both of her losses, Celestia abandoned her duties as a princess for a year. This year was one of the worst in history. Without a princess to rule over Equestria, the country started to fall apart. Only the bravest of the brave controlled the cities until the princess got back on her hooves. She still couldn't believe she killed someone she loved.

Or so she thought.
