Chapter one The Great and Powerful Pony and the road to the start.

The road felt like it stretched on forever to Angel Harmony she started her new life from home with a walk that fells like she would never see the end of “Now I see why dad said that it won't be easy to get there, home is so far away from any thing else. I have not seen but a few ponies so far and it has been at least six days” Angel keeps walking like she has done for many days, barely seeing another pony on her trek to Ponyville. Still keeping to herself even when she had met another pony on the road because of her shy nature, it had been quiet and boring. “I thought that mom said it would not be that long maybe I can get there tomorrow, oh Angel now you are talking to yourself what are others going to think about you if they see you” Angel sighs.

As Angel walks down the road she starts to see more branching paths going to other towns like Appaloosa and the capital Canterlot. The more she walks down the dirt road past all the other town signs she sees more and more ponies. After a couple of hours as the sun starts to get near the point that princess Luna, the long lost sister of Celestia and the princess that controls the moon, will let it rise for the dark and the beautiful stars. Angel has always loved the night and the stars, as it reminds her of her eyes and how mom always called her special little filly.

Angel Harmony has different eyes than most ponies as her eyes glitter like there are stars in them, with her deep blue eyes everypony always tells her her eyes remind them of how beautiful the night can be. Angel is a jet black furred unicorn with a white mane and tail that is straight then becomes wavy at the end, she has cyan stripes in both of her mane and tail. Her cutiemark is a shield that has a star that is the symbol for magic in the middle, around the magic star is three different music notes. The music notes are a quarter note, an Eighth note, and a beamed Eighth note in the middle of the magic star. The shield has two wings that have different colored feathers that she has yet to find out what they mean.

As the sun gets closer to going over the horizon Angel starts to see some fire works flying all over the place behind the hill that she was walking over, and as she gets closer she sees a Caravan that has folded out to a stage, and on that stage is a blue mare unicorn with a very out of place wizard cap and cap. She was casting a spell that was launching the fireworks everywhere as she exclaims “Show me what you can do and I can do it better for I am The Great and Powerful Trixie!” When the mare, whose name seemed to be Trixie, said that the stallion in the audience scoffed. Trixie instantly glared at him “So you think you are better then the Great and Powerful Trixie show me what you can do so I can show you how to really do it” She said in a smug tone.

The stallion grabs the rope from his cart and got on the stage on the other side of it then Trixie, then he started to tie multiple kinds of knots in the rope with increasing difficulty, when he finished he looked at her “So beat that Trixie if you can.”

Trixie looked at him with another glare “I said my name is The Great and Powerful Trixie.” Yelled Trixie as she grabbed another rope and tied up the stallion and finished it up with a bow. As he hopped off the stage, with a deep red blush on his muzzle, the other ponies laughed but not Angel she just shook her head and went down to help the stallion when she was done he thanked her and she shied away.

“Your welcome.” she said to him just loud enough for him to hear. After he was free they looked back over at Trixie on the stage as she started to talk about her greatest feat that she has ever done. “You see nopony can be better than me for I The Great and Powerful Trixie, has beaten one of the mightiest beasts known to ponykind an Ursa Major”. As she boasts about her victory she uses her magic to show the scene of her victory in a poorly looking light show. As Angel looks on she sees something else not only about her Ursa Major, but the pony boasting, but what she could not figure out.

All the ponies clap and cheer for Trixie, except for Angel and the stallion who just huffed and walked away. As the ponies walked away Angel stayed behind and look at Trixie to figure out one of the things that she had seen wrong. Angel walks up to the blue mare and looked at her calmly till Trixie noticed her standing there “And what do you want with The Great and Powerful Trixie, you very dirty filly”?

Angel looks at herself and sighs “Sorry for my looks I have been on the road for about a week, for why I am over here talking to you Trixie is that your story is a lie”.

“Oh really and how would a hobo like you know if my story is fake or not!?” Trixie yells at Angel angrily.

Angel shies away a little “Well Trixie-.” “That is Great and Powerful Trixie to you.” Trixie angrily tells Angel. “I have seen a real Ursa Major in the mountains where I live and what you are exclaiming to have done is not possible if you can't tell the difference between an Ursa Major and an Ursa Minor.” Trixie just sat there with big eyes and her mouth open for a minute or two.

Angel stands up straight again and looks at Trixie as she looks defeated and sad. “Never knew that anypony has even seen one of those monsters and lived, how could you have been the one that ruins my fame, why did you have to come here” cried Trixie.

Angel looks at her and sees what she had noticed about Trixie, a pain, a loss. Angel had seen a pain she had felt a long time ago. “Trixie, you have lost something in your past before have you not?”

Trixie gasps “How would you know that, have you been following me trying to ruin me so you can have all the fame.”

“Trixie no I have no need for your kind of fame this is false and it will not fill the hole from your past, maybe if you perfected your spells and put on a show that awes the crowd instead of points toward your lies, you would feel better and have even more fame.” Angel tells Trixie in hope she would at least listen to her.

Trixie looks at Angel for a little while then sighs “You are right but how do you think I would go by doing that.”

Angel closes her eyes and thinks for a bit then looks at Trixie “Why not come to Ponyville with me and visit with Twilight Sparkle I heard that is where she lives now and I was going to see if she would teach me how to do magic.”

“Really you mean thee Twilight the student of Celestia herself,” Trixie says in surprise. “Why is she living there instead of Canterlot and why would she teach us anyway, would she not have better things to do with her time. And to think I was going there next to do my show.”

“Really well we could go there together and see if she will teach us you so you can do an honest show and me so I can do more than two spells.” Angel says a little sheepishly.

“Wow you only know two spells what did you live in an Earth pony town,” Trixie says then looking at Angel's sad face she apologizes.“Look I did not know but I see why you would want to go so you can come with me to the town, with my cart we can make there by night fall and you can go to an inn and then you can come to my show tomorrow.”

“Alright that sounds like a deal let me help you with your cart tell me what to do and we can hit the road and go to Ponyville,” Angel tells Trixie. After that they set up the cart and where on there way to Ponyville while the cart was moving the mares decided to talk about themselves, getting closer and closer as friends. The two ponies talked all about there life, there pastimes like Angel's love of music “So what instruments do you play.” asks Trixie.

“All kinds but my favorite is the cello, my mother taught me all I know and I learned very fast, they call me an aficionado.” Angel tells Trixie. They also talked all about there family or who raised them and about their hometowns. “I do not know much about my family, but my mentor found me, after they past away, and raised me while teaching me what he could till he to past away.” said Trixie sadly. “I know I have a lot to learn yet but I made do with what I was taught trying to make a name for myself.”

“Well I know you can still make a name for yourself, after you finish learning all you can to make sure you are a really good illusionist.” Encourages Angel. “Thank you Angel, before I met you I was a mare just full of herself,” Trixie says, “So what is your family like?”

“Well most of my family are earth ponies, my dad is a Blacksmith and my mom is a musician like me,” explains Angel, “My mothers name is Silver Cord and my fathers name is Silver Anvil, they would work together and make special Strings and other instrumental parts from the silver we mined in my village.”

“I wonder if I have seen any of those pieces they have made.” Asks Trixie. “I would not know if you have or have not, most of the pieces that they made were sold to traveling merchants to make some bits for the town to trade with other merchants to get what the town needed that we could not gather or make are self.”

“Well maybe you will find a famous musician using one of your family's pieces, was there some way to identify them.” Asks Trixie. “Yes there is a marking of a string and an anvil” Angel says.

After a couple of hours they started to see the outskirts of the little town and the massive Apple orchard located near it. “Wow that looks like it has been around for a long time even generations, I wonder how many ponies work on something that big and who runs it?” Angel asks. “I heard only a few ponies work on Sweet Apple Acres, the Apple family and I also heard the bearer or the element of honesty.”

“Oh I would love to meet the Apple family and see how they run their farm.” Angel tells Trixie “So you are one of those nerdy ponies aren't you, well after you get settled maybe we can go over and check it out.” Trixie says.

Once they were in town they got directions to a nice place for Angel to sleep that was cheap, after they found the older style building Trixie said her goodbyes “Bye Angel don't forget to come to my show tomorrow.” “I will make sure to be there to get a front row seat.” Angel tells Trixie as she ways at the cart moving down the cobblestone road.

Angel walks up to the Building, it was a faded purple color and looked a bit run down. Angel tiredly opens the door to be greeted by a mare at the front desk the inside was nicer but Angel was to tired to look any longer. She walks up to the desk and asks “Hello may I have your cheapest room?”

The mare who's coat is a golden color with a brown mane her cutie mark was a building with Z's floating out of the chimney, “Hello welcome to the Sleeping Hay Bed and Breakfast, so you would like are cheapest room that will be 12 bits a night and you can stay as long as you want that comes with breakfast every morning you stay the night.”

“That sounds great I will take it.” Angel says yawning. “Great if you will follow me I will take you to your room it is number ten and is located all the way down this hallway on the left. Oh and my name is Hay Loft silly name right but that is my, you will meet the rest of the staff in the morning they are my family my husband and my filly. Here it is hope you enjoy and see you in the morning.” Loft says walking back down the hall the way they came from.

Angel opens the room with the key and walks into a nice little room with a bed that fits one pony and closet “I guess the shower is somewhere else in the house.” Angel takes off her saddlebags and lays them in the closet, she yawns the looks at the bed. “Alright time to hit the hay.” Angel lays down on the bed and falls asleep in about a minute ready to start her new life not knowing what the future holds.

Somewhere where no eyes can see a figure is looking on Angel “Now my child take this life and make the most of it, make some friends you will need the for what the future holds for you and the others around you.” The mystery figure says to no one.

Pre-Story

So you have heard stories of people going to Equestria and meeting the mane 6 and some that become ponies one way or the other, some by a spell that brought them there and others after awhile decide to become one to fit in or to marry the one they love. Then they have some where they get there and stay human or become another race like a griffin.

Well I have a story to tell of a girl who dies sacrificing her life to save a man who bullied her all her life. When she died God gave her a choice to stay with him in heaven or start a new life in a place that not only will love her back but would allow her to have the power to make a difference.

Bullied by everybody that met her and ignored by the rest made her shy and quiet now in a new life as a unicorn mare, born anew, must find her friends and make sure she does what she was given a second chance for, to protect the ponies that heal her heart and protect the elements so evil can't win.

The story will start after the rise of NightMare Moon around the episode “the Boast Busters” on the road to Ponyville, from her remote home town in the mountains called SilverHoof. With little in her name besides the pack on her back, she makes her way to her destiny and her first friend and changing the story that you all know.

“So now your second chance starts my child and while it starts the danger has yet to start so stay strong and make sure you never lose your heart or your friends”.
