Prologue
“Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria….”
When I was a little colt my parents told me the history of Equestria. They would say that the land was rich with resources, all the ponies during those days were able to go outside to play and watch the stars fall in the night sky. My parents told me a lot of stories about the Equestria.
“Mommy, if that's true then why is the land all dark and scary?”
My parents would look at each other oddly whenever I asked that. Thinking that it is too early for me to know the truth, but they know that they can’t keep away the truth from me any longer. It’s only a matter of time that, I will know the truth. But this time, they actually told me the whole story, where it all began.
“There was a war…”
It was a time when kindness gives way to greed, generosity turns to selfishness, and love turns to hate. Peace and order are now solved with weapons and black magic, and where fighting neighboring countries is the only method known to get resources. As the war spreaded throughout the lands of Equestria the Zebra Nation created a devastating weapon that can wipe out an whole city. In a blink of an eye, a barrage of balefire bombs hit multiple cities in Equestria. Fillydelphia, Los Pegasus, Baltimare, Manehattan, Cloudsdale, and lastly, Canterlot. The attacks kept on coming until the shield of Canterlot fell. Luckily in the mist of extinction, Canterlot was able to hold its defense long enough to lead its citizens to safety.
All the ponies outside of the magical shield panicked as they rushed to safety. Fear and terror plagued their thoughts as they took shelter inside Canterlot and Stable-Tec. Traumatized for what became of their beautiful land that was now a deserted wasteland. But it didn’t end there, another bomb exploded inside of Canterlot. A pink mist covered the whole streets. All of the ponies in the city tried to outrun the mist but failed to do so. Others tried to escape the city but also failed. The magical shield that was supposed to protect them from the harm became a cage of death. Thousands of ponies have died because of the war, a war that is still being fought today.
“Why do we have to fight? Why can't we just share Mommy?”
My mother sat beside me and stroked my head in a lovingly way. “Oh Blue, if only it were that simple. Things change and…sharing wasn't really an option before. Now it’s already late. Go up and sleep, your father and I have a lot of things to do.”
“Okay. Good night mommy. Good night daddy. I love you.” As I hug my parents with my two little hooves.
“We love you too.” As I lay down in my bed thinking, if there was a way for us to be polite and respect other ponies so that we can achieve peace.
As I closed my eyes, I hear a sudden roar, a loud and dangerous roar in my dreams…
“Rrraaawwwrrrr!!!”
“Mommy!!” I screamed.
My mother rushed to my room to see if I was okay. “Blue! What is it? Is something bothering you?” My mother asked.
“I heard a loud voice mommy, I think it’s coming out from there.” As I pointed my hoof to the forest I saw through the window.
My mother sits beside my bed and pats me softly in the head. “It’s okay Blue, no one is going to hurt you. We are miles away from Canterlot, so you’ll be fine. Your Daddy and I are here for you. Now take a rest, it’s going to be a long day tomorrow.”
“Goodnight Blue.”
“Goodnight Mommy.”
“Sweet dreams.” As my mother closed the door, I dozed myself to sleep.
