Spark: Book One

Spark

Chapter 1

I try to open my eyes, but a suffocating pain in my head prevents the completion of the task, suffocating pain from the dazzling rays of sun coming through the window, which I had failed to fully distinguish.

Just DO it damn it!

I try to ignore the pain to open them; I needed to know where I was. To tell the truth, I couldn’t remember anything, not even my own name.

The pain became more tolerable; allowing me to distinguish the furnishing of the room. It was a very well decorated bedroom. It was simple, but seemed to be from a person with good social status, for the paintings hanging on the walls, most of which dealt with the night. I was lying in bed that was located in the middle of the room. In front of it I saw a fireplace.

I noticed the walls were painted a dark blue and the floor was covered with a red carpet. Beside the bed, I could see a canvas, a palette of mixed colors and brushes that seemed recently used. I concluded that the paintings could have been made by whoever inhabited the room. Above the fireplace was a painting that caught my attention. It stood out between the others, whoever the gifted painter was used a lot more carefulness and dedication in this painting.

I saw two ponies; one was taller than the other. They had both horn and wings and luxurious royal vests. Over their heads laid a crown.

The eldest of the alicorns had a white coat, her prismatic hair waved magically. Her violet eyes were sparkling while she carried a serene smile in her face. Her Cutie Mark was of a radiant sun.

The coat's color of the younger was similar to the color of the walls, a deep dark blue. Her hair similar to the other alicorn's, but resembled the night sky. Her eyes were teal and carried a more serious expression. The Cutie Mark was of the moon surrounded by darkness.

Beautiful… I thought, admiring the paints around the bedroom, specially the previous one. Then, I remembered that I always have, and just realized I still have, a great interest and ability in arts, but this was no more than a simple liking, not a great revelation of my past.

I got out of bed and headed for the door, still admiring the paintings in the room. I have to know the one who did this... wonder...

However, before I could reach to the door, I saw a mirror through another door, which was open, that seemed to lead to the bathroom. I saw my reflection in it. I noticed I had both horn and wings, but I was normal pony size. I had dark red mane which was curled in its edges and covered my left eye, golden colored coat and my Cutie Mark was a heart made of gold surrounded by fire. However, I had some parts of my body covered with bandages and some uncovered bruises in other parts. I decided to leave it alone for the moment.

I left the room to reach a large hall with marble pillars; the roof was very high. I figured that I must have been inside of a kind of mansion or castle, based on the refined atmosphere of the place.

It didn’t seem like a dangerous place and, as I had awakened in a bedroom ... like that one, my reason for being here might not be for having committed a crime. I concluded that I was instead brought here to recover from the injuries I saw before in the mirror, but shouldn’t I be in a hospital if that was the case? I decided I was over thinking things too much and started exploring the castle. It should be okay if I was brought here in purpose.

I walked while admiring each corner of the hallway, looking in every direction but in front…

“HALT!” I look at the source of unexpected shout, two guards spreading their wings, forming a barrier that prevented my step. "WHO GOES THERE?!”

“u…um…” I took a few steps back, with a nervous grin on my face.

yeah right…I thought it SHOULD be okay…

*BUMP!*

The sound of two enormous doors full of cravings, crashing into the walls alarmed the current occupants of room…

…the throne room to be more precise…

The two guards who found me pushed me into the room, literally throwing me in front of the throne... where a tall alicorn sat... showing her dazzling beauty in an elegant posture... the alicorn resembled the eldest one of the painting, no, she was the eldest one of the painting.

"Your Majesty," said one guard, kneeling while the other repeated the same procedure, "We found this unknown unicorn with wings wandering around in the halls of the Castle"

"Gentlemen!" the eldest alicorn said in surprise, she seemed startled due to the sudden outburst "you shouldn't..."

"Oh!" she was interrupted by the youngest alicorn of the paint entering through the same entrance we used; we looked behind us in surprise, she had a smile from ear to ear on her face "you have finally awakened!"

These are just too many coincidences…

The young Princess and I ended up in the highest tower of the castle. While she was telling me about everything, I was trying to process the information.

"So ... you found me in the edge of a forest ..." I said, repeating everything that the young alicorn had told me.

"The Everfree forest to be precise" she stated.

"... Uh ... Everfree Forest... yeah... and I was unconscious and badly injured so you brought me here, without even knowing who I was, so I could recover?” I concluded.

"Correct" she said in her calm tone and put a little smile on her face as her cosmic hair floated gracefully and her bright eyes were fixed at the infinite horizon as the sun went down. I just admired her for a moment, enjoying the little silence and appreciating the beauty of her figure-

WHAT am I THINKING?!

"Then ... who are you?" I asked, trying to get… those… thoughts out of my head.

"Oh, you're not from around here?" she answered with a question "hm... winged unicorns are not so common" she tapped her chin with a hoof, deep in thought.

"Actually…I can’t remember a thing..." I said with disappointment, staring down at my hooves.

"... Amnesia ..." she said in a low tone "... I am Princess Luna, sister of Princess Celestia, I am responsible for bringing the night to the world until my sister Celestia brings the day. We both rule the kingdom of Equestria" with one hoof, she pointed out the countless buildings and towns through the balcony "we are in Canterlot Castle, located on a mountain; there is no other place in Equestria where you can have such a magnificent view." She turned her vision to me “But you can call me Luna, I’ve had enough of bows and royalty…” she made a pause “can you remember your name?”

“…” I shook my head.

“Then… how should I call you?”

"Well ... call me ..." I noticed my Cutie Mark and came up with a name from it "... Golden Passion"

...Suddenly...

FROM NOW ON

…YOU SHALL CALL ME GOLDEN PASSION!

AND SOMEDAY

I WILL OVERTHROW MY FATHER…

THE KING OF NICARDIA!
