memories from the fray

It was a frosty autumn evening. Lights glowing and light up the streets all over ponyville. Not many ponies were outside due to it being so chilly. On the outskirts of ponyville, was a large house. The house was never lit that much and hardly any signs of life came from it. This was the residence of an old stallion named copper vineleaf. Copper was never noticed in ponyville. He hardly ever left his house. Some say his been here for many years. Others say he lived in some unknown land and moved here, until he finally dies.

One day twilight sparkle was walking along, books in hand as usual, when she noticed a sign that read "stay off". She thought to herself, why would someone put up a sign quite like this one. Just then, she heard a door close infront of her. A shadow still visible through a window on the door. She couldn't remember who lives here. She didn't even know if she knew who lived here. Anyways, her curiosity got the best of her, so she layed down here books and went and clopped on the door. A soft but understandable mumble came from inside. Go away, the unknown pony said. Twilight thought this was rude but kept calm and asked the unknown pony if, she could get to know this supposed stallion, a little better. The house was quite for moment but then, the door began to rattle, and started opening. Before twilight, stood a tall old green stallion with a copper mane. What do you want the stallion uttered. Twilight responded. hello, im twilight sparkle. Nice to meet you. The stallion sighed. I'm copper vineleaf. Twilight smiled. May I come in. Yeah, why not.

Twilight walked in, and noticed a giant cabinet with many photo frames in it. Is this you ? She asked. Yes, but that was me long ago. I havent seen you around town lately, well never really seen you anywhere. Who are you? My dear, im just an old stallion, living out his last days in this lovely town. But you must have a story, twilight asked eagerly. You might want to sit down..and cancel any plans you have, your gonna be here a while. I have time to spare, don't worry,  she said.
