Tears of Rain

Chapter 2

“a past in mist.”

Sun Dancer woke to Orange Bright crawling next to him.

Sun Dancer smiled then orange bright said, “How old are you?”

Sun Dancer then said “One hundred and four.”

Orange Bright then said, “No way you’re lying.”

Sun Dancer then said, “Nope.”

Orange Bright then said, “Well if you’re more than a hundred years old you’re older then my grandpa and grandma.”

Sun Dancer nods then said “Yep.”

Orange Bright then said “Is it cool to be so old?”

Sun Dancer looked at orange bright then said “Yeah a little.”

Orange bright replied, “Well I just wanted to know is it okay for me to be your friend?”

  Sun Dancer then said “Yeah its fine.”

Orange bright came over and hugged Sun Dancer’s head then said, “Thank you for playing chess with me.”

Sun Dancer smiled and replied “No problem.”

Orange Bright galloped away then Sun Dancer got up and he yawned. He then placed on his armor piece by piece then he placed his sword on his side. He then saw Honey wheat come in she was smiling as she sat down on the couch she placed small tea set down on the small wooden table. With two small cups, she poured the small teapot over the two cups. She then sat down with her cup of tea in her hooves sun dancer sat across from her she then said, “I’m sorry if my son bothered you.” Sun Dancer then said, “No it’s fine.” He sat down across from her then lifted the other cup with his magic and drank it.

He then said, “He’s a nice filly.”

She replied, “He’s so curious about everything. He sometimes sneaks out it scares me half the time. I worry he might get lost.”

Prince Sun Dancer replied, “I used to be just like him, curious full of energy.”

She then said, “So you really are princess Celestia’s son?”

He nods then he drank more tea she then said, “How was she as a mother?”

Prince Sun Dancer then said, “She was amazing. She was always there for me. She scolded of course when I was wrong but she was kind as well and forgiving. When I had a problem, I could talk to her and she would always stroke my mane. I liked it when she does that.”

Honey wheat sarcastically replied , “She sounds wonderful.”

He looked up then said “Orange bright is lucky to have a mother that cares as much as you.”

She looked up and smiled then said, “I try.”

She then sipped more of her tea.

She then said, “So your heading out to east town today.”

Prince Sun Dancer nods then said, “I need to take a care of this problem. All this rain with no sunlight is bad for your crops.”

She looked up then said, “You have to be careful.”

Prince Sun Dancer replied, “I will.”

He opens the cabin door to the pouring rain outside closes it softly behind him. He then flies out into the sky.

He comes to a dirt path leading to an old bridge that crossed a large ravine. The wood was rotting and pieces were falling apart.

Sunset flew down and said “sorry but you’re not going there without me.”

Prince Sun Dancer smirked then said, “You sure you’re ready?”

Sunset nods then they start to cross the bridge sun Set then looked down and saw a small river rushing underneath them.

Sunset then said, “This Bridge gives me the creeps.”

  Sun Dancer looked ahead and soon a mist started to come in.

Sunset muttered “Just great.”

Sun Dancer suggested, “We can fly across.”

Sunset replied, “Not with this rain it’s too risky.”

Sun Dancer replied, “You said you came here before?”

Sunset replied, “I did but not with this much rain and this mist."

Prince Sun Dancer folded his wings to his side, “We trot slowly"

They start crossing the bridge together. Sunset and Sun Dancer started to trot over the bridge then they heard voices

“Kill them they betrayed us. Used us destroyed us.”

It echoed over and over. Then he saw the image of a shadow then he heard the roar

A monster tore through the bridge the monster had tentacles all over his body and it’s head was turned backwards. It started to crawl at Sun Dancer and he flew into the sky. He then saw Sun Set do the same and they tried to fly backwards but then a giant brick wall was blocking them and the monster was now crawling across the bridge with half of its body a mass of tentacles then Sun Dancer flew across the sky with rain pelting both him and Sunset. They dodged the attack from the monster, and then Sunset was hit by one of the tentacles and was falling into the ravine below. Sun Dancer then flew at him and then he caught him with his teeth by his neck. Then flew to the side of the cliff and slammed his sword through the side of the cliff.  Sun Dancer held on with his magic he turns his head to the monster, it was standing on the bridge then it collapsed and then it fell into the pit. As it grossly maneuvered its body and was readying itself to start climbing the side of the cliff, Sun dancer used his magic to lift Sunset’s body over the cliff onto high ground then Sun Dancer turned to the beast then he lifted his sword with his magic and then he flew down to attack the creature. He dodged the twirling tentacles and then slammed his sword through the neck then he flew in the air high enough to dodge retaliation from the beast then it spoke “False gods, false pride. We are one we don’t need. We are one we don’t need. Then the neck fell and then a blast of tentacles wrapped around Sun Dancer he screamed as he felt his body being pulled down then he took the sword and then he slashed through the tentacles and he screamed as he slashed and slashed he bit and tore. He had flashbacks of his mom ocean breeze, prince Blue blood.

He shouted, “I’m not going to die!”

He slammed the sword into the heart of the beast then the tentacles lost their grip then he flew up through the mist and then he clambered onto the dirt then he saw Sunset he dragged Sun Dancer across the ground and they both enter an abandoned hut. It was dirty and broken with no furniture only a small wooden room.

Sunset closed the door as sun Dancer galloped to the corner of the room then he collapsed on the ground then Sunset went over to

Sun dancer replied, “Are you okay?”

Prince Sun Dancer nods and said “I need to catch my breath.”

Sunset looked over Sun Dancer his armor was dented but other than that he was okay.

He then laid his head back then said, “What the hell happened."

Sunset then said, “I don’t know. I never saw that creature before.”

Prince Sun Dancer then said, “This town there’s more to this town. “

Then Sun dancer started to drift then he felt his head snap forward then it all went black.

He woke and he saw that he was in another world this world was grey and was full of white figures. He then saw a unicorn in white with ponies surrounding him with a hooded unicorn standing over him.

The hooded unicorn then said, “This unicorn has been found guilty for killing princess Esmerelda’s husband. As punishment by princess, Esmerelda is sentence of death."

The unicorn spat “That Alicorn deserved to die. Ever since she came here  ponies have been disappearing it’s her and her husband they both deserve to die..”

Then the hooded unicorn blasted him through the middle then his body fell into the ravine.

The hooded unicorn muttered, “Blood for blood, now for the rest of you. Let this be a warning, princess Esmerelda is good and gracious and knows none of you were a part of his schemes. I urge every single one of you to go back to your homes and continue on your daily lives.”

The ponies clapped he bowed then they shouted “Abyss! Abyss! Abyss!”

Prince Sun Dancer woke in his small bedroom. He rubbed his eyes then he yawns as he gets up then he clambers out of bed then he opens the door. He trots down the halls and goes down stairs then he enters the dining room then the lights flashed open and princess Celestia came out with young ocean breeze with her light green coat green eyes and bright blue mane flowing overhead. She with a gust of wind blowing fall leaves for her cutie mark. She smiled then she flew into Sun Dancer as they all shouted, “Happy birthday!”

Ocean Breeze looked at him then said “Your fifteen now.”

He smiled and said “Yep.”

Princess Celestia came over then said, “I remember today fifteen years ago when you first looked at me with those beautiful blue eyes.”

Prince Sun Dancer blushed then said “Mom you’re so embarrassing.”

She ruffled his mane then prince Blue Blood came forward and said “Prince Sun Dancer I wish you a happy birthday.”

He bows then Prince Sun Dancer hugs him as he groans and said, “I’m glad you made it.”

Then he looked over the cake it was pure white with fifteen candles.

He smiled, “Alright I guess it’s time.”

Princess Celestia nods then prince sun dancer sat behind the cake.

Ocean breeze sat beside her and said “I’m so glad you came to.”

She blushed and said “Oh stop it and let’s sing.”

They sing happy birthday then he blows out the candles then they clapped.

princess Celestia said, “What did you wish for?"

Prince Sun Dancer then said, “If I tell it won’t come true.”

With his magic, he picks up the knife on the side and slices a piece of cake, and then placed it on a plate then he placed a fork in it and he moved it over to Ocean breeze.

He then said, “I want you to have the first piece.”

She blushed and ate some. “It’s delicious.”

Prince blue blood replied, “I’m not in a mood for cake.”

He then left the dining room then princess Celestia looked at Sun dancer and Ocean breeze.

She replied, “Well I should remind you the real party starts at noon.”

Prince sun Dancer turned to princess Celestia and said “Thank you mom.”

She comes over kisses him on the forehead then said “Happy birthday my handsome colt.”

He blushed again then she left the dining room.

Ocean Breeze giggled and said “My mom is just like yours“

Sun dancer turned to her then with his magic lifted a piece of cake and then placed it on a plate and he moved it towards him as he ate some.

He replied “I don’t mind it.”

Ocean breeze then said, “I think it’s sweet.”

Prince Sun dancer turned to her and said, “Are you going to stay?”

She then said, “Of course, I wouldn’t miss it for the world.”

He then said “Alright, so what about your new job?”

She then said, “I work in cloudsville now to help make wind.”

Sun Dancer then said, “Wind huh”

She nods then said, “I know it’s been hard for us to hang out more often. But this is my destiny.”

He looked at her then said, “I know. I just wanted to spend more time with you before you go.”

She then said, “Well we got today let’s make the most of it.”

Prince Sun Dancer then said “Alright. I’ll try to make this a birthday you won’t forget.”

Prince Sun Dancer woke back in the cabin.

Sunset asked, “You okay?”

Sun dancer got up and said, “Yeah I’m fine.”

Sunset then said, “You don’t sound fine.”

Prince Sun Dancer then said, “I had a vision of a unicorn being executed. Then I had a flashback.”

Sunset then said, “You’ve had them before?”

Prince Sun dancer then said “Not recently. Anyways I am going to send a letter to princess Celestia tell her that our suspicions have been confirmed."

He then realized his saddlebag was gone.

Sunset replied, “It fell in the ravine.”

Prince Sun Dancer swore then said, “Alright let’s start investigating this town and destroy whatever is creating these monsters.”

Sunset nods then Prince Sun Dancer straightens his helmet then he takes his sword puts it in his sheathe then said “Sunset thank you for coming.”

Sunset nods then said “I got your back.”

Then they open the door of the hut and go back into the rain.
