Chapter 6 - Ancestor Spirit

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Winter laid in the ally, severely depressed and full of regret. Everything he lost, the memories, and his new friends... all in vain! He didn't know what to do. He felt as if he failed himself, Glow, and his parents. He felt that he couldn't go on anymore. He had no happiness inside him, just hatred towards himself.

"I'm not doing this anymore." He said to himself as he began to write a message to his new friends. "It's over."

If you are reading this, you must know that you may never see me again. You will probably be left wondering where I went, so I will tell you. I am going to no longer be in this world, because I am punching my own ticket. I apologize to the ones I hurt by doing this.

Winter picked up the dagger and began to point at himself, but before he could end everything, a voice interrupted everything.

"Winter, what are you doing?" The mysterious voice asked. Winter looked behind him to see a light blue mare, but she was also transparent to the point where Winter could kind of see through her.

"W-who are you!?" Winter asked in a startled voice.

"I am Snowdrop, your ancestor." The mare replied as she slowly took the dagger from Winter's hoof and threw it into the wall.

"Just leave me alone." Winter demanded.

"No, I need you to tell me what's wrong." Snowdrop's spirit stated.

"Just look at me, I'm just some worthless colt who can't even avenge the death of the ones I care about, I am nothing." Winter told Snowdrop.

"Why would you see yourself as worthless?" Snowdrop asked.

"I can't do anything right! I can't avenge their deaths, my friend is hurt because of me, and I can't even be just like you." Winter answered as tears started to stream down his face.

"Winter, I've felt worthless back when I was living millenia ago, I've been at a point where I wanted to give up, but I realized my purpose, and now it's time you realized your own purpose." Snowdrop said to Winter.

"But what about when you go back up there and I'm on my own?" Winter asked.

"Yes, I will be going back up there soon, but I will be with you." Snowdrop said.

"But how will I talk to you?" Winter asked with another question.

"Winter, you can find me in the twinkly sounds of the stars and the snow, I am never gone." Snowdrop answered as she slowly faded out of Winter's sight. Winter realized that Snowdrop had a point, he had to keep going, he had to avenge the deaths, he had to make things right once again. He shredded the note and left the ally, leaving the dagger behind.
