The Life of Daylight Glimmer
The beginning of lies
Load Full StoryNext ChapterTwilight Sparkle, the now soul leader of Equestria, was standing on the balcony of the Canterlot castle. She couldn't be more nervous- cited about telling Flash she was going to have a baby. It was going to be their baby, whatever their child looked like he/she would always be loved. A letter suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of Twilight on the balcony. She picked it up and read it.
Dear Princess,
Your child will die! I will either personally kill that baby or you can make it die yourself!!!! I will get my revenge AND take over Equestria!
Twilight stared at the letter and read it over and over again. Tears fell from her eyes. She wanted to keep her kingdom safe but Twilight also wanted to live happily ever after with her family. Flash walked onto the balcony and saw her crying.
"Are you ok?" he asked anxiously.
'I'm pregnant," she whispered.
"Twi this great news!!" he exclaimed.
She used her magic to give him the letter. Now he was crying as well, their first child might die. Twilight wasn't having any of it!!!
She quickly wrote a letter to the Crystal Empire, their child just might have a chance of survival.
~ 7 months later ~
Rarity sat in one of the chairs outside Twilight's room. She could hear screaming, groaning, moaning, and everything else. She could see the now adult sized Spike through the window looking through the window to Twi's room.
"Two months too early! Two months too early!" was all Pinkie said as she held onto her knees and rocked back and forth.
Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetiebelle sat in group huddle whispering anxiously. They now had their cutie marks, Sweetie's was a Microphone, Scoot's was her scooter, Applebloom's was a red apple being painted green.
Rarity heard hoofsteps and saw Applejack race into the hall closely followed by Rainbowdash and Fluttershy. They knew what was going on. Fluttershy sank into the chair beside Rarity and hugged Rarity as she cried.
The CMB , cutie mark besties as they now called themselves, walked over to AJ and Dash and spoke urgently to them. The cyan pegasus and farm pony nodded and whispered something to them. Applebloom smiled, Scootaloo flapped her wings excitedly and Sweetie walked over to Rarity.
"Why are you all so happy?" Rarity asked her sister.
"Applejack is gonna take us to a little shop to get Twilight something. She will be ok sis," Sweetiebelle replied.
Rarity flinched but nodded.
"Thanks Rarity!" Sweetie called over her shoulder as she went back to her friends. Rarity heard them leave and knew that nothing would be ok.
After hours of hearing screaming yelling and crying, it finally ended, at about 7 am. Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbowdash, Applejack, and whimpering Pinkie pie went inside Twilight's room.
There was a broad smile on the alicorn's face. Flash was teary eyed and smiling as well. Their eyes were fixed on the little bundle the purple pony held. Inside the blanket was their sleeping pale pink alicorn daughter. Her hair was a mix of dark pink and dark purple.
Then, in came the CMB. They were giggling and cheering as Sweetiebelle, using her magic, set a small box beside Twilight. The alicorn used her magic to open it up. There was a half sun dotted with pink sparkles inside. Twilight put the sun on her child's head with the string it came with.
"Isn't it pretty how the daylight glimmers on her?" Flutters asked happily.
"We'll name her that!" Flash cried out. "Daylight Glimmer," he confirmed.
"It's beautiful," Twilight Sparkle said crying. The door opened and in came the princess of the Crystal Empire.
"I heard that the baby came early, are you sure you two want to do this?" Cadence asked looking at Flash and Twilight.
"Yes, I am. It's for the good of everypony," came the saddened reply from Twilight. Flash just nodded.
"What are you talking about?" Rainbow dash asked.
"We're sending Daylight to live in the Crystal Empire due to the- letter we received," Flash said downcast.
"WHAT?!" Pinkie screamed outraged.
"It's just a letter! It has no meaning!!!" RD yelled.
"Darling, why?" Rarity said to Twilight.
"I knew something was bound to go wrong!" Fluttershy murmured.
"Now calm down ya'll!" AJ said over the commotion. They looked expectantly at Applejack. "If somepony sent a letter bad enough to make these two do this then, we should respect that and let Twi and Flash do whatever they think is best. She is their baby after all," Applejack reasoned.
" *sigh* Applejack is right, no matter how dreadful it is," Rarity told them. Everyone let what needed to be done get done. After saying their goodbyes, Cadence left with baby Daylight Glimmer in the hopes that the alicorn baby could be protected.
