The suit of armor on the alicorn quickly disappeared as if it had turned to dust. The air was thick, no pony dared to speak, then Fang walked towards Twilight, that's when she saw it. His eyes were as black as a starless night, and when she looked at them she could only feel one thing. Love. As Twilight stared into the king's eyes memories began to flood Twilight's mind, body, and soul. The good feeling was coursing through twilight physical, mental, and emotional swept over her body. The love was so intense that she thought it would make a grown dragon pass out. Then as quick as it came it was gone. She opened her eyes with tears flowing down her cheeks, then saw what caused the love to start Fang was touching his horn to hers. This made her blush until she looked into his eyes again, she saw the love in his blank eyes, not just his love but hers as well, and the love of thousands upon thousands of other ponies. Suddenly Twilight felt a warm feeling within her heart, this feeling was like an ember that quickly grew into a flame, as her hooves lifted off of the ground the feeling spread from her heart to every fiber of her being. Twilight heard the voices again, but their calling for a pony named 'Twilight Amora Heart' and her name is 'Twilight Amora Sparkle'. Now Twilight began to question herself, but as she did there was voice from below, it was soft, gentle, and for her ears alone. "My love don't struggle. Let it flow, it's time. Please Mi Amora Heart, please..." The warmth from her heart began to change her form. Her mane became longer while covering her right eye, her cutie mark was now a magenta heart with a white star inside, and her eyes were half round-half slitted. 'Mi Amora Heart? Wait... That means... My Beloved Heart. Fang... Ana... Soul... Cadenca... My Friends... My Family... Cadenca, my cousin... Fang, my love... Ana, my beautiful child... Soul, my dearest friend...' There was a flash of light, and the ground shook violently. Twilight's body slowly descended back to the floor below, nopony made a move not even the re-embodied princess (queen). After a few tense moments Twilight's eyelid twitched as her body began to arise, her wings opened wide for all to see. The right wing was blacked from appeared to have been a fire spell, but Fang and Cadence knew that the blackened feathers were part of an old wound. Twilight's legs wobbled as if they were going to give out, but Fang was the first to react as Twilight's legs collapsed under her body, Fang caught her head with his neck laying her head upon the ground gently. Twilight's eyes opened with a jolt, the left was slited and the right was rounded both glowed with a light red hue. The Blue of Twilight's mane and tail darkened to dark blue like Princess Luna's coat, the purple darkened to indigo, and the pink darkened to rose. Twilight's lavender coat darkened to a dark lavender, and Twilight's voice was wrapped with a bit of distorted echo when she spoke. "Well... Now this quite a surprise isn't, Crimson Fang?" the dark lavender mare took notice of a certain pink mare, who happened to be a family member of her host. "Cadenca?" "A-adela?" Cadence in fright, as she took a step towards the so named darker mare. "How... how..." "Cadence, you know this mare?" asked Shining Armor with a look that meant he wanted answers and now. "And who in the hoof is Cadenca?" "Shining... Cadenca means Cadence in the Diamondina (Diamond-in-a) Language. And this mare is Adela, Twilight Amora Heart's darker half." "That is right Cadenca... that's right.. The Diamondina Language is the only language in the Diamond Kingdom. And as to, how I am alive... I have no clue nor answer to that question... I'm sorry..." Adela said before she heard the sound of a knife whistling through the air, this gave her time to duck but Adela got her right ear slightly cut. Adela suddenly dropped unconscious, and the last she heard was the beating of her heart. The blade had been poisoned with sleeping powder, causing those who got cut almost immediate unconsciousness, or even if stabbed too many times, death. Adela lifted her head as her eyes slowly opened she saw nothing but darkness around her. A voice cut through the air as somepony sang a song that had not been sung since Twilight's birth. "Home is behind... the world ahead And there are many paths to tread... Through shadow... to the Edge of Night... Until the stars all alight... Mist and shadow... Cloud and shade... All shall fade... All shall... Fade..." Adela felt pain shoot through every fiber of her soul, the darkness began to consume her whole. Laughter filled her ears, the laugh was twisted and corrupted. A pair of eyes appeared in front of her as hoof stroked her cheek, these eyes belonged to a pony who had once before tried to take Twilight, Adela's mistress, all for himself. This pony was a changeling amed Metamorphosis, her adviser. A bright light shown through out the darkness, and Adela couldn't help herself as she trotted for the warmth that she felt against her fur. Adela wanted to know nothing more but the feeling of warmth, and happiness. The light enveloped Adela but she grabbed around the waist with magic while being pulled towards the changeling. Then out of nowhere somepony had attacked Metamorphosis with a fire spell, nearly burning him to ashes. The white pony, a stallion from the look of the pony's body stature, picked up Adela in his magic place her gently on his back before breaking into a run. He was heading for the light, everything brightened to the point that a flash was caused, and Adela passed from the brightening light with a smile upon her face. The Queen, A Letter, And Preparing For War. (Flashback Part 1)The Diamond Kingdom 6:00 P.M. 10,000 Years Ago The sound of clopping hooves on stone and tile floor rang out in the silent halls. The creak of a door and the pony did step in, the light of sun and reflections shining on his dull black body. The hard hooves echoed as they hit the floor, the silence broken by the taps as he neared the beautiful mare upon the balcony over looking the courtyard. His blue-green eyes with the slit pupils eyed her gorgeous body. A golden dress was laced everywhere except her neck, hiding the gorgeous hue of her slender form. Her golden silk clothes stretched over her body, just barely hiding the beautiful chest fur underneath them as the sleeveless shirt showed ancient designs scrawled and sewed onto the lovely fabrics. A long skirt of the same design was covering her tail, not quite reaching her legs that were just staying there teasingly in front of his face. The fibres hung around her shoulders in perfection, just short of her graceful wings and showing off her odd horn and crown that jutted out and stood out from her golden cloaked body and bright mane. Her mane and tail were blue with purple and pink, lavender fur sparkled in the light of the setting sun. The stallion knew what to do to get the Queen of the kingdom all for himself, but he had to wait for her to finish her duty for the day. He stopped behind her, tapping his hoof to announce his presence to this beauty in front of him. "Ah... Metamorphosis, it has been too long." She whispered, her voice fine like silk. She ran her hoof along the floor in a circular motion, as if she had something to say and that she would regret saying it after she did. "Tonight, I ask you to carry out a message to the ruler of Transylmaneia, King Crimson Fang." Metamorphosis smiled at her, his eyes full of smugness that she did not detect. "No... your majesty." The Queen turned to her adviser with an eyebrow raised in question, Metamorphosis' eyes were locked onto the Diamond Queen as she walked towards him. "Why will you not deliver the message, Metamorphosis?" "Because... A message came from Transylmaneia earlier today." He brought out a scroll with his magic, a sickly green color. "What? Why didn't you tell me before?" The Queen asked her adviser as she took the scroll in her magic, then she unfurled it. "I did not wish to direct you from duties, My Queen." "I understand." she said before she began to read the scroll aloud. Dear Queen Twilight Amora Heart, I am sorry for sending this letter on such short notice, but I have had despret matters to attend to. War is on the door steps of meny kingdom, including my own. I've requested help from the other kingdoms, and none have answered my call. We've been fighting for two days straight. Our defences are falling fast, and many are dying. I've been wounded a bit but I can manage myself. Help we need help... King Crimson Fang of Transylmaneia "Metamorphosis. gather the troops. we're going to war." "But my lady, the Diamond Kingdom needs you here. Your subjects need your leadership. I need you here." Metamorphosis whispered the last bit under his breath. "Yes, I know that." Queen Twilight said with a nod. "But we cannot leave our fellow ponies to die, or let them be enslaved to ponies who kill without reason, nor for sport. I will not leave ponies to die or a another ruler." Twilight walked around Metamorphosis, and shouted. "Bring my amour!" The Diamond Army, And The March For Transylmaneia (Flashback Part 2)The Diamond Kingdom 7:00 P.M. The Diamond Queen was on the verge of anger, if Metamorphosis hadn't reasoned with her she would have flown off to Transylmaneia by herself to assist King Crimson Fang alone. Whoever these ponies were would pay with their lives if anypony had been killed, or enslaved for her to see. She would take the great pleasure to avenge those who had been wronged, hurt, or even killed. 'Just Lke Father, Mother, and Anut Ayla had been.' Twilight thought to herself with closed eyes. Twilight Heart took a deep breath, taking a few moments to calm herself and clear her thoughts. Snowy Dawnlight, Twilight's handmaiden awaited her queen's orders. "Snowy..." "Yes, Milady?" Snowy Dawnlight was a light blue mare with a snowy white/tail. This mare was the last mare to carry the proud name of the Dawnlight Clan, and the last name 'Dawnlight' was only given to the foals at birth but were later changed if the parents saw fit. "You are dismissed." Snow bowed then turned to take her leave, but Snow couldn’t even make it out of the room the chamber doors swung open one ended hitting Snowy in the face before her flank landed on the floor from stopping her trot. A guard helped Snowy too her hooves before turning back his task at hoof. Twilight had noticed the loud bang from behind her, and had turned around to see what had caused the noise. The queen’s gaze rested upon a unicorn guard in silver armor, bowing in respect to her without a doubt she had a message for her leader. “My Queen, the troops are ready.” “Thank you FireTail, you and Snowy may go now.” Twilight replied as she finished putting her armor and helmet on. “Oh, and Fire?” “Yes your majesty?” “Can you to alert our medics and please tell them to select a hoof-full of ponies to attend the army in of battle injuries?” “Yes my queen.” Twilight stood in front of a full-body mirror, examining herself just to see if anything was out of place. Her mane was in a ponytail, her wings each had a blade covering from middle to the tips of the feathered appendage. Her hamlet was made of withstand any fatal blows or damages to the wearers’ head. Her right wing had blackened feathers, this made it rather hard to fly, but she knew that diving off cliffs could solve that problem. She knew Fang would call for her aid when he needed her most, and this was one of those times. Fang was only the other pony, (aside from Soul and herself) who knew the feeling of being different and special in a way. It was time to tell the troops, prepare to leave for Transylmaneia, and not just to help other in need but also a somepony who meant more than the world itself to Twilight. Turning to the doors of her room after taking one last look at the portrait of the royal diamond family, Ayla Wing Twilight’s aunt, stood the left of her mother, Violet Light. Her father Heart Flight stood on Violet Light’s right, two little foals front of the three adults. Twilight Amora Heart stood to the right, Mi Amore Cadenca stood to the left completing what had been left of the *Diamond Kingdom’s Once Great Line. After five turns in the various hallways, Twilight came to the main balcony of the palace she stepped into the moonlight for all to see. Far, far below stood the Diamond Army looking at the moonlit balcony their ruler stood upon. Twilight cleared her throat, hoping that if she was to lead these brave stallions and mares to their end that they would understand. “My soldiers, my children. I know that you all might be wondering why you have been gathered here tonight, I received a letter from the King of Transylmaneia Crimson Fang. In his letter he said 'War is on the door steps of meny kingdom, including my own. I've requested help from the other kingdoms, and none have answered my call. We've been fighting for two days straight. Our defences are falling fast, and many are dying.'" she took breath before continuing, "I know that you are scared or even wanting to step down from your potion in this army. If you do so, I will not hold this choice against you. But if you choose to stay and fight your courage will be honored." No pony moved from where they stood, Twilight hadn't thought that her speech would bring her army, her ponies, her family, pride in what they did best on the battlefield. They took pride in helping other ponies, or in this case another kingdom in need. "Thank you, my brothers, my sisters, my family. We march for Tarnsylmaeia in 2 hours, be perpared my children." Twilight had said with a warm smile, the army of mares stallions raised their shields or weapons as they shouted, "Ah-Hoo!" ~~~~~ Twilight had geathered her saddlebags and a map withn the 2 hour that she and her army would depart from thiswonderful haven they called home. The army consisted of four sections each had 2 generals in command. The first section was the earth ponies, the second section was the pegasi, the third section was the unicorns, the fourth and final section was the alicorns. . Twilight commanded the alicorns section of the army only, but also commanded the army as a whole. The Diamond Army only had 5000 forces and they would be able to fight with just ponies alone, they needed more arms in this battle and Twilight knew where to find more. The army had been marching through Blackroot Forest, Twilight's first home. A howl cut through the air all but one pony in the whole army had stopped to look around in fear. The only pony who hadn't stopped was Twilight, she knew who that was, her adoptive mother and family. "My Queen?" FireTail asked, the worry in his voice was clearly noticable. "What was that?" "That, Firetail." Twilight answered in a calm voice. "Was one of my family." As if on cue, a timberwolf with blue eyes and white wings appeared on the cliff above the army. Twilight knew who this timberwolf was, her adoptive mother, Marla. To everypony's surprise, Twilight approached the she-wolf without a fear to be seen. "Hello Mother, it's been a long time." "Yes, it has. You're here for something aren't you Laylay (Lie-Lie)?" Marla asked. "We need your help, the help of...." Twilight was cut off by Marla. "You mean 'my help’ as in, the help of the timberwolves?" "Yes, we don't have reinforcements. I am sure you can pull that off, can't you?" "Of course, my daughter. Meet us at the eastern edge of the Blackfruit Forest." "Alright mother." ~~~~~ The Diamond Army waited for the timberwolves to show up at the rendezvous point that Marla had said. It had been about an hour and a half since the army had arrived, Twilight was sitting with her eyes closed patiently waiting for her family and the others to arrive. From the tree line paw steps came to the waiting army's eyes, the timberwolves had arrived at long last. Marla lead the wolves along with her husband (Draco), two daughters (Lila , and Kitty) and three sons (Cooper, Sleet, and Aqua). The family reunion would have to till after a long walk, and camp was set up. "Move out!" Twilight said taking lead of her ponies, as her family was taking lead of the wolves. And so The Match For Transylmaneia had truly begun. Familiar Faces And All New PlacesCanterlot Hospital Wing 1:11 P.m. Crimson Fang, Princess Cadenca, along with the members of royalty (Twilight's five best friends, and Spike.) waited in waiting room to see Twilight. It had been nearly a week since Twilight Heart's rebirth, and Fang's release. Fang had been pacing for hours on end, (at least for 6 days straight if anypony had to guess) but a Vampony, like him, could last 2 to 3 weeks without sleep, maybe a month tops. Luna felt something inside of her suddenly jolt, as if her own heart had leapt out of her chest. Her head moved to the doors of the E.R, everypony could only hope Twilight would be okay. Everything was quiet, the doctors and nurses left when other staff members took their places for the night. A doctor came out of the E.R. with files in her magic, passing the group of 10 ponies in the waiting room. Cadenca found herself walking across the room, moving from her spot next to Shining Armor over to the spot next to Fang, sitting, but within a few seconds she was up again, only for Fluttershy to hug her. Just then, the silence was broken by a window broke. Cadenca nearly jumped out of her skin as she looked around herself and everypony, they were standing in a hallway of the Diamond Kingdom’s Palace. Suddenly there was a scream from farther down the hall, the sound of a dragon's roar soon followed, Fang quintented his eyes to see what was coming at the group of 10. The figure was a alicorn filly running for her life, the strange thing was that the filly looks exactly like Twilight Heart. What was happening, and where were they? The filly Twilight Heart look-a-like ran as if life depended on it… and as a matter of fact, her life did depend on her running. As mini-Twilight Heart ran down the hall, the dragon snapped at her tail missing it by a millimeter every time it tried to grab her. As she reached the end of the hall she spotted a broken window and she heard the sound of water below. Not risking one more second to give the dragon another chance to try and make meal out of her hide, the little alicorn ran at the shattered window, and the dragon was about to release a shot of fire she leapt through the window. Down, down, down the alicorn fell as she flapped her tiny wings, her right wing was burned from the blast that the dragon as she jumped out of the window. Fang didn’t know kind of domain this was, than the scenery changed to a beach at the entrance of a forest. A faint sound cry came from behind the group, turning around they spotted the filly Twilight Heart look-a-like pulling herself from the ocean waters onto the sand to lay her head. Little Twilight Heart lay motionless, her right wing’s once purple feathers were now black as Fang’s coat. The scenery around the 10 ponies faded back to the waiting room, everypony was confused as hay but for some strange reason Fang wasn’t affected at all. He had remembered that on Twilight’s last birthday she had spent with Soul, himself and the mane five’s ancestors, she had shown them what the group of 10 had seen. A doctor while carrying a purple folder under her wing, stopped a few inches from the group. “Your Highnesses, sorry we took so long…” “It’s quite alright.” Luna answered, a small smile crossing her face. She was trying to hide her questionable look that had adorned her face just seconds before. “Please, tell us. What is the matter?” The doctor flipped open the folder. “It appears that Ms. Amora Heart has sleeping poison in her system, we managed to find how the poison got into her body.” “How?” Cadenca asked with a raised eyebrow, she already the answer; a knife, a dagger to be more precise, coated with sleeping poison. “It was a dagger coated with sleeping poison.” *Writer: Wait didn’t I just… Oh nevermind…* “As for removing the poison, we tried our best, but we could only remove a small portion of it. Ms. Heart is fine and will live. When she placed in surgery, we heard the sound of breaking bone. Her bones were and ‘still’ are rebreaking themselves, but her right wing be wounded… I’ll be frank it doesn’t look like Ms. Heart will flying anytime soon, taking off from the ground normally is out of the question.” “May we see her now?” Rarity asked after a long uncomfortable moment of silence. “Of course, please follow me.” The group of 10 and the doctor entered a dimly lit room which served as a patient’s room, Twilight was lying so still that it didn’t look like she breath, let alone look alive. Fang and Cadence move to Twilight’s right where her right hoof rested on the sheets, she had no expression on her face. Fang was about break down into a round of tears, Twilight was in a state very much like this one but last time she had a smile on her face. She had died because of something he couldn’t bring up right now, they had find that something and bring it home. It was their turn to regain that something and make things right again, they would be together after 5,000 years of being apart. Twilight’s life was on the line again, she had to wake up. “Let’s go Fang needs so time alone.” Cadence spoke, heading for the door. “I think it’s for the best.” The ponies left Fang in the room, as the door closed quietly Fang’s ears were pinned back and his eyes. He refused to let go of Twilight’s hoof, he couldn’t lose her again. The last time Fang had lost Twilight he lost himself to insanity and it was because of her death. He felt like crying but he couldn’t even think of anything to cry about, until the memory of the promise he had kept, it was to save somepony’s life. That memory made Fang lay his head on Twilight’s chest as he silently cried his heart out, he remained like that before he fell asleep for his tears and heartache. That Something Left Behind & The TruthPony Heavaen Castle Twilight Heart I couldn’t wake no matter how hard I couldn’t wake. Adela sat next to me as I cried, she what I was thinking about for it was also in Fang’s mind. That Something we had left behind, a foal, our foal. She was very beautiful, a grey alicorn filly with a blue/white mane/tail and had blue eyes. Anastasia Snow Light, My Little Snow Princess, My Daughter. I’m sorry, but we had no other choice than to send you away, Oh Gods let me see her once again. 5,000 years 1day ago, Transylmaneia Third A pregnant lavender alicorn walked slowly the halls of castle, heading for her bed chambers for a nap. It had 11 months since Twilight had married Fang, now she was to bare his child which she didn’t mind one little bit. She loved Fang with all her heart, the foal was in a day but the new queen only think of how much she was tired… Soul had been helping Fang watch over Twilight, in case anything happened to her. One time Twilight was reading a book in the library, she suddenly passed out from some unknown reason. She woke up in the hospital several hours later, the doctor had found the source of the problem. The foal had been using her magic to survive within her belly, the second she heard that Twilight know she won’t didn’t survive long when the foal was born. Twilight couldn’t get or keep any food nor drink she had in her stomach long enough for her to be healthy, seconds later she found out that the foal wasn’t just draining her magic but her life. Twilight finally reached the chambers she happily shared with her husband, she hadn’t felt any movement for the foal inside her belly. She struggled to lay down on the bed, she managed to lay her right side before laying asleep. Hours passed as the queen spelt Fang and Soul had checked in on her, just to see if she needed anything or if she was still asleep. Twilight woke the next day at noon, her belly felt like it was being hammered on from the inside. The queen groaned, taking deep breaths through her nose as she felt the first contraction pass. Twilight couldn’t help but scream in pain, her scream echoed throughout the castle halls causing a hoof-ful of maid and guards come check on her. The maids moved their queen carefully onto her back, one of the maid turned to the guards with an order the queen had told her. “You four go get the doctors.” the silver-coated maid said as she pointed four of the five guards behind her. “And you go get the king, he needs to be here!” The guards ran off with their tasks on hoof, it didn’t take long the doctors along with Fang and Soul to receive the messages. Fang came to Twilight’s right Soul on her left each holding a hoof to support their friend, Twilight was pale as she could get. Her beautiful eyes were dimming fast, her heart beating faintly, the foal was almost out, and Twilight care if she died right now. The foal would live she died, it wouldn’t be the foal’s fault nor anypony’s, it would be fate. Fate wasn’t always cruel Twilight knew fate would let the foal live, it wouldn’t be alone, the foal would be like it’s mother. Born with darker/lighter halves, to carry on the Diamond and Transylmania Bloodlines within. A cry reached e\everypony’s ears, a nurse handed the newborn to it’s dying mother. “It’s a filly…” Twilight said weakly smiling at her child, who was looking up at her with hooves outstretched wanted hold to her mother’s nose in her last moments. Twilight slowly leaned her head down, letting her hug her nose for the first and only time she could. The filly had a grey coat, blue eyes, and a blue/white mane/tail, she happily let go of her mother’s face to look for the last time. Fang took his daughter from her mother, placing the blanket over her eyes. Fang wouldn’t let his little girl see her mother die in front of her, his eyes looked with Twilight’s red orbs facing their match. He spoke with closed eyes, “Name your daughter.” “Her name is Anastasia Snow Light.” Twilight said little to no voice, before looking Anastasia. “My Little Snow Princess.” Twilight’s breathing began to slow within seconds, her eyes closed slower than her breathing, her fur paled even slower. The queen was dead, and all because of her newborn filly, Princess Anastasia Snow Light. Fang placed a sleeping spell upon his daughter, the spell of Rebirth, the spell would last until 11 years before her mother and father’s returns. Prologue: The Voices Of The PastAuthor's Note I'm sorry about not posting the chapter 1st, but... Oh, well... Enjoy my freinds Prologue: The Voices Of The Past Cold air, empty rooms. Voices she could not recall, yet they were familiar. A castle corridor, the roaring of fire behind her. A broken window, and water below. A yell of fear, and an end so near. Magic is warm, and a pony far from harm. A child so precious but she could not remember, but she was born sometime in December. Time moves fast, as the plain stretches vast. There was one word, which remained unheard. A lone pony (an alicorn) walked through burned hall, she was wondering, thinking about what could have been the cause of the scorched walls, ceiling, and floor. This place held a meaning to her that she could not understand why, the alicorn stopped when she heard voice.... But whose? Suddenly there was a scream from farther down the hall, the sound of a dragon's roar soon followed. Fear enveloped the pony as the dragon's face came into view, its eyes looked at her as if she was its next meal. She didn't want to a dragon snack anytime soon, so without a second thought the small alicorn turned around and broke into a run. As she ran down the hall, the dragon snapped at the alicorn's tail missing it by a millimeter every time it tried to grab her. As she reached the end of the hall she spotted a broken window and she heard the sound of water below. Not risking one more second to give the dragon another chance to try and make meal out of her hide, the little alicorn ran at the shattered window, and the dragon was about to release a shot of fire she leapt through the window. Down, down, down the alicorn fell as she flapped her tiny wings, her right wing was burned from the blast that the dragon as she jumped out of the window.
Memories, A Transformation, Old Wounds, Old Friends And Family.Everfree catacombs 5:00 P.M. The suit of armor on the alicorn quickly disappeared as if it had turned to dust. The air was thick, no pony dared to speak, then Fang walked towards Twilight, that's when she saw it. His eyes were as black as a starless night, and when she looked at them she could only feel one thing. Love. As Twilight stared into the king's eyes memories began to flood Twilight's mind, body, and soul. The good feeling was coursing through twilight physical, mental, and emotional swept over her body. The love was so intense that she thought it would make a grown dragon pass out. Then as quick as it came it was gone. She opened her eyes with tears flowing down her cheeks, then saw what caused the love to start Fang was touching his horn to hers. This made her blush until she looked into his eyes again, she saw the love in his blank eyes, not just his love but hers as well, and the love of thousands upon thousands of other ponies. Suddenly Twilight felt a warm feeling within her heart, this feeling was like an ember that quickly grew into a flame, as her hooves lifted off of the ground the feeling spread from her heart to every fiber of her being. Twilight heard the voices again, but their calling for a pony named 'Twilight Amora Heart' and her name is 'Twilight Amora Sparkle'. Now Twilight began to question herself, but as she did there was voice from below, it was soft, gentle, and for her ears alone. "My love don't struggle. Let it flow, it's time. Please Mi Amora Heart, please..." The warmth from her heart began to change her form. Her mane became longer while covering her right eye, her cutie mark was now a magenta heart with a white star inside, and her eyes were half round-half slitted. 'Mi Amora Heart? Wait... That means... My Beloved Heart. Fang... Ana... Soul... Cadenca... My Friends... My Family... Cadenca, my cousin... Fang, my love... Ana, my beautiful child... Soul, my dearest friend...' There was a flash of light, and the ground shook violently. Twilight's body slowly descended back to the floor below, nopony made a move not even the re-embodied princess (queen). After a few tense moments Twilight's eyelid twitched as her body began to arise, her wings opened wide for all to see. The right wing was blacked from appeared to have been a fire spell, but Fang and Cadence knew that the blackened feathers were part of an old wound. Twilight's legs wobbled as if they were going to give out, but Fang was the first to react as Twilight's legs collapsed under her body, Fang caught her head with his neck laying her head upon the ground gently. Twilight's eyes opened with a jolt, the left was slited and the right was rounded both glowed with a light red hue. The Blue of Twilight's mane and tail darkened to dark blue like Princess Luna's coat, the purple darkened to indigo, and the pink darkened to rose. Twilight's lavender coat darkened to a dark lavender, and Twilight's voice was wrapped with a bit of distorted echo when she spoke. "Well... Now this quite a surprise isn't, Crimson Fang?" the dark lavender mare took notice of a certain pink mare, who happened to be a family member of her host. "Cadenca?" "A-adela?" Cadence in fright, as she took a step towards the so named darker mare. "How... how..." "Cadence, you know this mare?" asked Shining Armor with a look that meant he wanted answers and now. "And who in the hoof is Cadenca?" "Shining... Cadenca means Cadence in the Diamondina (Diamond-in-a) Language. And this mare is Adela, Twilight Amora Heart's darker half." "That is right Cadenca... that's right.. The Diamondina Language is the only language in the Diamond Kingdom. And as to, how I am alive... I have no clue nor answer to that question... I'm sorry..." Adela said before she heard the sound of a knife whistling through the air, this gave her time to duck but Adela got her right ear slightly cut. Adela suddenly dropped unconscious, and the last she heard was the beating of her heart. The blade had been poisoned with sleeping powder, causing those who got cut almost immediate unconsciousness, or even if stabbed too many times, death. Adela lifted her head as her eyes slowly opened she saw nothing but darkness around her. A voice cut through the air as somepony sang a song that had not been sung since Twilight's birth. "Home is behind... the world ahead And there are many paths to tread... Through shadow... to the Edge of Night... Until the stars all alight... Mist and shadow... Cloud and shade... All shall fade... All shall... Fade..." Adela felt pain shoot through every fiber of her soul, the darkness began to consume her whole. Laughter filled her ears, the laugh was twisted and corrupted. A pair of eyes appeared in front of her as hoof stroked her cheek, these eyes belonged to a pony who had once before tried to take Twilight, Adela's mistress, all for himself. This pony was a changeling amed Metamorphosis, her adviser. A bright light shown through out the darkness, and Adela couldn't help herself as she trotted for the warmth that she felt against her fur. Adela wanted to know nothing more but the feeling of warmth, and happiness. The light enveloped Adela but she grabbed around the waist with magic while being pulled towards the changeling. Then out of nowhere somepony had attacked Metamorphosis with a fire spell, nearly burning him to ashes. The white pony, a stallion from the look of the pony's body stature, picked up Adela in his magic place her gently on his back before breaking into a run. He was heading for the light, everything brightened to the point that a flash was caused, and Adela passed from the brightening light with a smile upon her face.
The Queen, A Letter, And Preparing For War. (Flashback Part 1)The Diamond Kingdom 6:00 P.M. 10,000 Years Ago The sound of clopping hooves on stone and tile floor rang out in the silent halls. The creak of a door and the pony did step in, the light of sun and reflections shining on his dull black body. The hard hooves echoed as they hit the floor, the silence broken by the taps as he neared the beautiful mare upon the balcony over looking the courtyard. His blue-green eyes with the slit pupils eyed her gorgeous body. A golden dress was laced everywhere except her neck, hiding the gorgeous hue of her slender form. Her golden silk clothes stretched over her body, just barely hiding the beautiful chest fur underneath them as the sleeveless shirt showed ancient designs scrawled and sewed onto the lovely fabrics. A long skirt of the same design was covering her tail, not quite reaching her legs that were just staying there teasingly in front of his face. The fibres hung around her shoulders in perfection, just short of her graceful wings and showing off her odd horn and crown that jutted out and stood out from her golden cloaked body and bright mane. Her mane and tail were blue with purple and pink, lavender fur sparkled in the light of the setting sun. The stallion knew what to do to get the Queen of the kingdom all for himself, but he had to wait for her to finish her duty for the day. He stopped behind her, tapping his hoof to announce his presence to this beauty in front of him. "Ah... Metamorphosis, it has been too long." She whispered, her voice fine like silk. She ran her hoof along the floor in a circular motion, as if she had something to say and that she would regret saying it after she did. "Tonight, I ask you to carry out a message to the ruler of Transylmaneia, King Crimson Fang." Metamorphosis smiled at her, his eyes full of smugness that she did not detect. "No... your majesty." The Queen turned to her adviser with an eyebrow raised in question, Metamorphosis' eyes were locked onto the Diamond Queen as she walked towards him. "Why will you not deliver the message, Metamorphosis?" "Because... A message came from Transylmaneia earlier today." He brought out a scroll with his magic, a sickly green color. "What? Why didn't you tell me before?" The Queen asked her adviser as she took the scroll in her magic, then she unfurled it. "I did not wish to direct you from duties, My Queen." "I understand." she said before she began to read the scroll aloud. Dear Queen Twilight Amora Heart, I am sorry for sending this letter on such short notice, but I have had despret matters to attend to. War is on the door steps of meny kingdom, including my own. I've requested help from the other kingdoms, and none have answered my call. We've been fighting for two days straight. Our defences are falling fast, and many are dying. I've been wounded a bit but I can manage myself. Help we need help... King Crimson Fang of Transylmaneia "Metamorphosis. gather the troops. we're going to war." "But my lady, the Diamond Kingdom needs you here. Your subjects need your leadership. I need you here." Metamorphosis whispered the last bit under his breath. "Yes, I know that." Queen Twilight said with a nod. "But we cannot leave our fellow ponies to die, or let them be enslaved to ponies who kill without reason, nor for sport. I will not leave ponies to die or a another ruler." Twilight walked around Metamorphosis, and shouted. "Bring my amour!"
The Diamond Army, And The March For Transylmaneia (Flashback Part 2)The Diamond Kingdom 7:00 P.M. The Diamond Queen was on the verge of anger, if Metamorphosis hadn't reasoned with her she would have flown off to Transylmaneia by herself to assist King Crimson Fang alone. Whoever these ponies were would pay with their lives if anypony had been killed, or enslaved for her to see. She would take the great pleasure to avenge those who had been wronged, hurt, or even killed. 'Just Lke Father, Mother, and Anut Ayla had been.' Twilight thought to herself with closed eyes. Twilight Heart took a deep breath, taking a few moments to calm herself and clear her thoughts. Snowy Dawnlight, Twilight's handmaiden awaited her queen's orders. "Snowy..." "Yes, Milady?" Snowy Dawnlight was a light blue mare with a snowy white/tail. This mare was the last mare to carry the proud name of the Dawnlight Clan, and the last name 'Dawnlight' was only given to the foals at birth but were later changed if the parents saw fit. "You are dismissed." Snow bowed then turned to take her leave, but Snow couldn’t even make it out of the room the chamber doors swung open one ended hitting Snowy in the face before her flank landed on the floor from stopping her trot. A guard helped Snowy too her hooves before turning back his task at hoof. Twilight had noticed the loud bang from behind her, and had turned around to see what had caused the noise. The queen’s gaze rested upon a unicorn guard in silver armor, bowing in respect to her without a doubt she had a message for her leader. “My Queen, the troops are ready.” “Thank you FireTail, you and Snowy may go now.” Twilight replied as she finished putting her armor and helmet on. “Oh, and Fire?” “Yes your majesty?” “Can you to alert our medics and please tell them to select a hoof-full of ponies to attend the army in of battle injuries?” “Yes my queen.” Twilight stood in front of a full-body mirror, examining herself just to see if anything was out of place. Her mane was in a ponytail, her wings each had a blade covering from middle to the tips of the feathered appendage. Her hamlet was made of withstand any fatal blows or damages to the wearers’ head. Her right wing had blackened feathers, this made it rather hard to fly, but she knew that diving off cliffs could solve that problem. She knew Fang would call for her aid when he needed her most, and this was one of those times. Fang was only the other pony, (aside from Soul and herself) who knew the feeling of being different and special in a way. It was time to tell the troops, prepare to leave for Transylmaneia, and not just to help other in need but also a somepony who meant more than the world itself to Twilight. Turning to the doors of her room after taking one last look at the portrait of the royal diamond family, Ayla Wing Twilight’s aunt, stood the left of her mother, Violet Light. Her father Heart Flight stood on Violet Light’s right, two little foals front of the three adults. Twilight Amora Heart stood to the right, Mi Amore Cadenca stood to the left completing what had been left of the *Diamond Kingdom’s Once Great Line. After five turns in the various hallways, Twilight came to the main balcony of the palace she stepped into the moonlight for all to see. Far, far below stood the Diamond Army looking at the moonlit balcony their ruler stood upon. Twilight cleared her throat, hoping that if she was to lead these brave stallions and mares to their end that they would understand. “My soldiers, my children. I know that you all might be wondering why you have been gathered here tonight, I received a letter from the King of Transylmaneia Crimson Fang. In his letter he said 'War is on the door steps of meny kingdom, including my own. I've requested help from the other kingdoms, and none have answered my call. We've been fighting for two days straight. Our defences are falling fast, and many are dying.'" she took breath before continuing, "I know that you are scared or even wanting to step down from your potion in this army. If you do so, I will not hold this choice against you. But if you choose to stay and fight your courage will be honored." No pony moved from where they stood, Twilight hadn't thought that her speech would bring her army, her ponies, her family, pride in what they did best on the battlefield. They took pride in helping other ponies, or in this case another kingdom in need. "Thank you, my brothers, my sisters, my family. We march for Tarnsylmaeia in 2 hours, be perpared my children." Twilight had said with a warm smile, the army of mares stallions raised their shields or weapons as they shouted, "Ah-Hoo!" ~~~~~ Twilight had geathered her saddlebags and a map withn the 2 hour that she and her army would depart from thiswonderful haven they called home. The army consisted of four sections each had 2 generals in command. The first section was the earth ponies, the second section was the pegasi, the third section was the unicorns, the fourth and final section was the alicorns. . Twilight commanded the alicorns section of the army only, but also commanded the army as a whole. The Diamond Army only had 5000 forces and they would be able to fight with just ponies alone, they needed more arms in this battle and Twilight knew where to find more. The army had been marching through Blackroot Forest, Twilight's first home. A howl cut through the air all but one pony in the whole army had stopped to look around in fear. The only pony who hadn't stopped was Twilight, she knew who that was, her adoptive mother and family. "My Queen?" FireTail asked, the worry in his voice was clearly noticable. "What was that?" "That, Firetail." Twilight answered in a calm voice. "Was one of my family." As if on cue, a timberwolf with blue eyes and white wings appeared on the cliff above the army. Twilight knew who this timberwolf was, her adoptive mother, Marla. To everypony's surprise, Twilight approached the she-wolf without a fear to be seen. "Hello Mother, it's been a long time." "Yes, it has. You're here for something aren't you Laylay (Lie-Lie)?" Marla asked. "We need your help, the help of...." Twilight was cut off by Marla. "You mean 'my help’ as in, the help of the timberwolves?" "Yes, we don't have reinforcements. I am sure you can pull that off, can't you?" "Of course, my daughter. Meet us at the eastern edge of the Blackfruit Forest." "Alright mother." ~~~~~ The Diamond Army waited for the timberwolves to show up at the rendezvous point that Marla had said. It had been about an hour and a half since the army had arrived, Twilight was sitting with her eyes closed patiently waiting for her family and the others to arrive. From the tree line paw steps came to the waiting army's eyes, the timberwolves had arrived at long last. Marla lead the wolves along with her husband (Draco), two daughters (Lila , and Kitty) and three sons (Cooper, Sleet, and Aqua). The family reunion would have to till after a long walk, and camp was set up. "Move out!" Twilight said taking lead of her ponies, as her family was taking lead of the wolves. And so The Match For Transylmaneia had truly begun.
Familiar Faces And All New PlacesCanterlot Hospital Wing 1:11 P.m. Crimson Fang, Princess Cadenca, along with the members of royalty (Twilight's five best friends, and Spike.) waited in waiting room to see Twilight. It had been nearly a week since Twilight Heart's rebirth, and Fang's release. Fang had been pacing for hours on end, (at least for 6 days straight if anypony had to guess) but a Vampony, like him, could last 2 to 3 weeks without sleep, maybe a month tops. Luna felt something inside of her suddenly jolt, as if her own heart had leapt out of her chest. Her head moved to the doors of the E.R, everypony could only hope Twilight would be okay. Everything was quiet, the doctors and nurses left when other staff members took their places for the night. A doctor came out of the E.R. with files in her magic, passing the group of 10 ponies in the waiting room. Cadenca found herself walking across the room, moving from her spot next to Shining Armor over to the spot next to Fang, sitting, but within a few seconds she was up again, only for Fluttershy to hug her. Just then, the silence was broken by a window broke. Cadenca nearly jumped out of her skin as she looked around herself and everypony, they were standing in a hallway of the Diamond Kingdom’s Palace. Suddenly there was a scream from farther down the hall, the sound of a dragon's roar soon followed, Fang quintented his eyes to see what was coming at the group of 10. The figure was a alicorn filly running for her life, the strange thing was that the filly looks exactly like Twilight Heart. What was happening, and where were they? The filly Twilight Heart look-a-like ran as if life depended on it… and as a matter of fact, her life did depend on her running. As mini-Twilight Heart ran down the hall, the dragon snapped at her tail missing it by a millimeter every time it tried to grab her. As she reached the end of the hall she spotted a broken window and she heard the sound of water below. Not risking one more second to give the dragon another chance to try and make meal out of her hide, the little alicorn ran at the shattered window, and the dragon was about to release a shot of fire she leapt through the window. Down, down, down the alicorn fell as she flapped her tiny wings, her right wing was burned from the blast that the dragon as she jumped out of the window. Fang didn’t know kind of domain this was, than the scenery changed to a beach at the entrance of a forest. A faint sound cry came from behind the group, turning around they spotted the filly Twilight Heart look-a-like pulling herself from the ocean waters onto the sand to lay her head. Little Twilight Heart lay motionless, her right wing’s once purple feathers were now black as Fang’s coat. The scenery around the 10 ponies faded back to the waiting room, everypony was confused as hay but for some strange reason Fang wasn’t affected at all. He had remembered that on Twilight’s last birthday she had spent with Soul, himself and the mane five’s ancestors, she had shown them what the group of 10 had seen. A doctor while carrying a purple folder under her wing, stopped a few inches from the group. “Your Highnesses, sorry we took so long…” “It’s quite alright.” Luna answered, a small smile crossing her face. She was trying to hide her questionable look that had adorned her face just seconds before. “Please, tell us. What is the matter?” The doctor flipped open the folder. “It appears that Ms. Amora Heart has sleeping poison in her system, we managed to find how the poison got into her body.” “How?” Cadenca asked with a raised eyebrow, she already the answer; a knife, a dagger to be more precise, coated with sleeping poison. “It was a dagger coated with sleeping poison.” *Writer: Wait didn’t I just… Oh nevermind…* “As for removing the poison, we tried our best, but we could only remove a small portion of it. Ms. Heart is fine and will live. When she placed in surgery, we heard the sound of breaking bone. Her bones were and ‘still’ are rebreaking themselves, but her right wing be wounded… I’ll be frank it doesn’t look like Ms. Heart will flying anytime soon, taking off from the ground normally is out of the question.” “May we see her now?” Rarity asked after a long uncomfortable moment of silence. “Of course, please follow me.” The group of 10 and the doctor entered a dimly lit room which served as a patient’s room, Twilight was lying so still that it didn’t look like she breath, let alone look alive. Fang and Cadence move to Twilight’s right where her right hoof rested on the sheets, she had no expression on her face. Fang was about break down into a round of tears, Twilight was in a state very much like this one but last time she had a smile on her face. She had died because of something he couldn’t bring up right now, they had find that something and bring it home. It was their turn to regain that something and make things right again, they would be together after 5,000 years of being apart. Twilight’s life was on the line again, she had to wake up. “Let’s go Fang needs so time alone.” Cadence spoke, heading for the door. “I think it’s for the best.” The ponies left Fang in the room, as the door closed quietly Fang’s ears were pinned back and his eyes. He refused to let go of Twilight’s hoof, he couldn’t lose her again. The last time Fang had lost Twilight he lost himself to insanity and it was because of her death. He felt like crying but he couldn’t even think of anything to cry about, until the memory of the promise he had kept, it was to save somepony’s life. That memory made Fang lay his head on Twilight’s chest as he silently cried his heart out, he remained like that before he fell asleep for his tears and heartache.
That Something Left Behind & The TruthPony Heavaen Castle Twilight Heart I couldn’t wake no matter how hard I couldn’t wake. Adela sat next to me as I cried, she what I was thinking about for it was also in Fang’s mind. That Something we had left behind, a foal, our foal. She was very beautiful, a grey alicorn filly with a blue/white mane/tail and had blue eyes. Anastasia Snow Light, My Little Snow Princess, My Daughter. I’m sorry, but we had no other choice than to send you away, Oh Gods let me see her once again. 5,000 years 1day ago, Transylmaneia Third A pregnant lavender alicorn walked slowly the halls of castle, heading for her bed chambers for a nap. It had 11 months since Twilight had married Fang, now she was to bare his child which she didn’t mind one little bit. She loved Fang with all her heart, the foal was in a day but the new queen only think of how much she was tired… Soul had been helping Fang watch over Twilight, in case anything happened to her. One time Twilight was reading a book in the library, she suddenly passed out from some unknown reason. She woke up in the hospital several hours later, the doctor had found the source of the problem. The foal had been using her magic to survive within her belly, the second she heard that Twilight know she won’t didn’t survive long when the foal was born. Twilight couldn’t get or keep any food nor drink she had in her stomach long enough for her to be healthy, seconds later she found out that the foal wasn’t just draining her magic but her life. Twilight finally reached the chambers she happily shared with her husband, she hadn’t felt any movement for the foal inside her belly. She struggled to lay down on the bed, she managed to lay her right side before laying asleep. Hours passed as the queen spelt Fang and Soul had checked in on her, just to see if she needed anything or if she was still asleep. Twilight woke the next day at noon, her belly felt like it was being hammered on from the inside. The queen groaned, taking deep breaths through her nose as she felt the first contraction pass. Twilight couldn’t help but scream in pain, her scream echoed throughout the castle halls causing a hoof-ful of maid and guards come check on her. The maids moved their queen carefully onto her back, one of the maid turned to the guards with an order the queen had told her. “You four go get the doctors.” the silver-coated maid said as she pointed four of the five guards behind her. “And you go get the king, he needs to be here!” The guards ran off with their tasks on hoof, it didn’t take long the doctors along with Fang and Soul to receive the messages. Fang came to Twilight’s right Soul on her left each holding a hoof to support their friend, Twilight was pale as she could get. Her beautiful eyes were dimming fast, her heart beating faintly, the foal was almost out, and Twilight care if she died right now. The foal would live she died, it wouldn’t be the foal’s fault nor anypony’s, it would be fate. Fate wasn’t always cruel Twilight knew fate would let the foal live, it wouldn’t be alone, the foal would be like it’s mother. Born with darker/lighter halves, to carry on the Diamond and Transylmania Bloodlines within. A cry reached e\everypony’s ears, a nurse handed the newborn to it’s dying mother. “It’s a filly…” Twilight said weakly smiling at her child, who was looking up at her with hooves outstretched wanted hold to her mother’s nose in her last moments. Twilight slowly leaned her head down, letting her hug her nose for the first and only time she could. The filly had a grey coat, blue eyes, and a blue/white mane/tail, she happily let go of her mother’s face to look for the last time. Fang took his daughter from her mother, placing the blanket over her eyes. Fang wouldn’t let his little girl see her mother die in front of her, his eyes looked with Twilight’s red orbs facing their match. He spoke with closed eyes, “Name your daughter.” “Her name is Anastasia Snow Light.” Twilight said little to no voice, before looking Anastasia. “My Little Snow Princess.” Twilight’s breathing began to slow within seconds, her eyes closed slower than her breathing, her fur paled even slower. The queen was dead, and all because of her newborn filly, Princess Anastasia Snow Light. Fang placed a sleeping spell upon his daughter, the spell of Rebirth, the spell would last until 11 years before her mother and father’s returns.
Prologue: The Voices Of The PastAuthor's Note I'm sorry about not posting the chapter 1st, but... Oh, well... Enjoy my freinds Prologue: The Voices Of The Past Cold air, empty rooms. Voices she could not recall, yet they were familiar. A castle corridor, the roaring of fire behind her. A broken window, and water below. A yell of fear, and an end so near. Magic is warm, and a pony far from harm. A child so precious but she could not remember, but she was born sometime in December. Time moves fast, as the plain stretches vast. There was one word, which remained unheard. A lone pony (an alicorn) walked through burned hall, she was wondering, thinking about what could have been the cause of the scorched walls, ceiling, and floor. This place held a meaning to her that she could not understand why, the alicorn stopped when she heard voice.... But whose? Suddenly there was a scream from farther down the hall, the sound of a dragon's roar soon followed. Fear enveloped the pony as the dragon's face came into view, its eyes looked at her as if she was its next meal. She didn't want to a dragon snack anytime soon, so without a second thought the small alicorn turned around and broke into a run. As she ran down the hall, the dragon snapped at the alicorn's tail missing it by a millimeter every time it tried to grab her. As she reached the end of the hall she spotted a broken window and she heard the sound of water below. Not risking one more second to give the dragon another chance to try and make meal out of her hide, the little alicorn ran at the shattered window, and the dragon was about to release a shot of fire she leapt through the window. Down, down, down the alicorn fell as she flapped her tiny wings, her right wing was burned from the blast that the dragon as she jumped out of the window.
