"And thanks for the food. It was very good." Twilight said, standing before the door of Pure's house. Spike was standing on the path nearby, his foot tapping the ground rhythmically.

"It's nothing. Anything for a good friend. One last thing thought, Twilight." Pure said. Spike sighed, as the conversasion went on.

"Yes?"

"I know you're a princess and all, but you think you have some time tomorrow? I could use some help with putting my furniture a bit better and I don't really know so much about that. I'll asure there's something to eat whilst you help, 'kay?" Pure asked, a small blush on his cheeks. Twilight didn't notice, her mind looking in the house. It sure is messy in there she thought.

"I'll help. And that food sounds nice. Tomorrow then?" Twilight said, a bit more noticable blush on her cheeks too.

"Sure. I-if you have time of course." Pure said before slowly closing the door.

"Twilight!" Spike said, his patience almost completly gone.

"Y-yes? sorry, Spike. I'm just... A bit distracted." Twilight said, looking back to Pure's house as she walks to Spike.

The duo walked away, Twilight sometimes looking back at the house. It was not very far away from town and it's path connected directly with that leading to the Castle of Friendship. Spike sighed a bit, a small grin on his face.


"Rarity?" Pure called, walking inside the boutique with a box floating behind him.

"There in a minute, darling!" Rarity shouted, her voice coming from the living-space upstairs.

She walked down, her mane waving in a small breeze coming from and open window. Pure his eyes tryed to fixate on something else.

"Ah, are that the clothes you said need repairs?" Rarity said as she arrives at the ground floor.

"Yes. They're a bit damaged from a few... Experiments in the past and I thought that, seeing your designs, you are the best to fix them." Pure said, levitating the box with clothes to Rarity. The mare took a peek in the box, quickly closing it.

"Dear, they need more then a repair. I'll make them better then you can ever dream of! And for just the price of repair plus the half of new clothes!" Rarity said, putting the box in a good spot.

"What? I can't take that offer! It's far to generous!" Pure said, his kind heart skipping a beat after hearing the offer.

"Dear, I'm always so generous to my friends, and I wouldn't be a good Element of Generousity if I wasn't generous, now would I?" Rarity said, walking to the reception desk and grabbing a pen to write down the appiontement.

"A-are... are you really the Element of Generousity? I thought those things were sealed away for good!" Pure said, his mind shocked. He had to regain balance as memories poured in.

"Everything alright, darling? You look a bit sick." Rarity asked, walking closer to see if Pure was alright.

"It's just... I am not really well updated with things. I don't read the newspaper and I have spent most of my life in a secluded part of Canterlot. I wasn't the most richest untill I received the heritage of my grandmother. She passed away a few months ago of old age." Pure said, a small tear sliding down his cheek.

"I see, my condolencies. Take it easy and come back in 3 days. I'll have your clothes ready then." Rarity said, her eyes fixated on Pure whilst she walked back to the stairs leading upstairs. The stallion left the boutique and went his way to his house.

"That was close." He said in himself as he walked back to his house.


Pure put a few of his books on the desk in his hobbyroom. He opened the first one, 'The History of Equestria; A brief Lookthrough', and started going through the pages untill he reached the one about 'The Elements of Harmony'.

"The Elements first belonged to the Tree of Harmony... Blablabla... Used to defeat Discord... Blablabla... Last used by the Bearers of Harmony... Blablabla... Discovered by Twilight Sparkle, price pupil of Princess Celestia, She stands for the Element of Magic, the most powerfullest Element. Her 5 friends each stand for the other 5 elements: Honesty, Generousity, Loyalty, Kindness and Laughter. These aspects each fit the pony that bears the Element. Applejack, Element of Honesty, is beliefed to never lie. Rarity, Element of Generousity, is very generous to everypony. Rainbow Dash, Element of Loyalty, is loyal to all her friends. Fluttershy, Element of Kindness, is the most kindest pony you'll ever meet. She won't even hurt a fly! Last is Pinkie Pie, Element of Laughter, who is beliefed to stay happy and laughing even when the world is at it's end. She also is the most strangest pony alive, able to predict things through things that happen with her body. These 5, together with their friend Twilight are the 6 Element Bearers. They were able to defeat strong foe's without killing them. They defeated fiend's like Nightmare Moon, returning our beloved Princess Luna; Discord, former Lord of Chaos; Sombra, a monster that threatened the Crystal Empire; Tirek, absorber of magic and current prisoner of Tartarus and last, they defeated and reformed Starlight Glimmer, who tried to steal Cutiemarks to 'purify' Equestria of all Talent. She is now Twilight's student, learning everything about Friendship."

"They are no longer capable of using the Elements though, forced to return them to the Tree of Harmony as it was in danger. Through this, they have become more reliƫnt on each other then ever before, now aware that their friendship is not thanks to the Elements. We hold our gratitude to them, as they risk their lives protecting Equestria and their hometown, Ponyville."

Pure took a breath of relief. The Elements are not a threat.

But then, something popped in his mind. They learned so much about friendship, they even saved an ancient kingdom! But what was this 'Crystal Empire' actually? He looked through the book untill he found something about it.

"Crystal Empire. Believed to just have vanished after Sombra was believed to have been defeaten... Blablabla... Connections with Nightmare Moon, as they both became a thousand years ago? I'll leave that alone for now. Uhmmm... Resurfaced for unknown reasons, some belief that King Sombra recovered in those thousand years and used his dark magic to bring the kingdom back... Blablabla... Saved by Spike, Twilight's number one assistent. He saved the Crystal Heart so the love of the Crystal ponies could save the Empire. King Sombra vanished, not known to where though. They placed a statue for Spike's bravery and courage and he is a celebrity in the Crystal Empire. It is lead by Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, known by many as Cadance. She is married with Prince Shining Armor, former guard in Canterlot and big brother of Twilight Sparkle. She has a brother? That's new."

Pure looked through a few details, going about the history of the Princess and Prince. Then, he stumbled across something interesting.

"Princess Cadance spreads love through Equestria. Her love for Prince Shining Armor was the reason that they defeated Queen Chrysalis during their wedding in Canterlot. The magic of their love was powerfull, eventhough Shining Armor was completly exhausted to protect Canterlot with a shield spell. Love?" Pure started thinking at things when suddenly something clicked. But where could he get true love? He went through various mares he knew from the past, denying almost everypony untill he got to Twilight. His head got a bit strange, his heart beating faster and sweat forming quicker. After doing a quick analysis, he came to a simple, yet special conclusion.

"I... I think I'm in Love with Twilight!" Pure said, quickly clapsing his hooves against his mouth. Am I? He wondered. He went through everything again, but it all seemed true. He's in love with Twilight!

"But is she with me? Love doesn't work properly if it isn't in both directions." Pure wondered to himself. He knew only one way without coming out the wrong end: A love letter.

I'll write a letter to Twilight and see if she responds. If she does, and it's a good response then it's in both ways. I'll have to add my name for sure, to awake some feelings he thought as he took a piece of paper and a pen.

"'Dear Twilight Sparkle'... Nononono... , 'Dear Twilight'... Yes!" Pure began, and soon he was writing a letter to Twilight with the greatest passion. He finished fairly quick, looking outside. He noticed that the moon was starting to rise, signaling the end of the day. He wrapped his letter up before crawling in his bed. After taking one last glance at the finished letter he closed his eyes and stumbled into a happy dream of him and Twilight.


Twilight knocked on the door of Pure's home. She heard hoofsteps closing in and suddenly, the door opened revealing Pure, holding a few candles in his magic.

"Twilight! I knew that you would come! I hope it hasn't caused something important to be delayed." Pure said, allowing Twilight to come inside.

"Nonono! It doesn't delay anything. I see that you already started?" Twilight said, looking around the living room and putting her saddlebags down. A few chairs were moved to the side, and boxes filled with little things like books and pictures were set to the left. A few were already opened.

"Not really. I just assured that everything is in a good spot. Now, where do you think should I put these candles?" Pure asked, holding the candles in his magic to Twilight.

"I'd say... On the sides of the edge above the openfire, mayby? And those chairs and that table can go to a corner with enough space left for ponies to sit down on. You think I can look at those pictures?" Twilight said, her words going a thousand miles an hour.

"Twilight, breathe! That for the candles and the chair sounds nice, and you can look at the pictures. I'll put everything were it fits right, you say were it could fit, 'kay?. And mayby help too?" Pure said, going to the openfire to put the candles on the sides of the shelf above. Twilight walked to the box with pictures, pulling a few out with her magic after giving Pure a quick nod.

She looked at the pictures, most of them showing things that happened in his life: His graduation, the most recent picture; he and a few friends at his old house, ... Then she stumbled on a picture tucked away in a corner. It showed 2 unicorns sitting next to another, one a stallion, the other a mare. She noticed that the mare was pregnant.

"Are these your parents?" Twilight asked as she showed it to Pure. He almost let one of the chairs fall down.

"Y-yes, they are." Pure began, sitting down. " I don't really know them though. My father left me alone when I was just 5 and my mother died when I was just a foal. I don't know why: some say she was killed, others say she was 'sick'. M-my father left me because he couldn't handle the pressure to raise me alone. He was always drunk, and he sometimes didn't come home untill past midnight. He was always in bars and clubs, and left me alone for long periods of time or didn't pick me up from school. When he left me, I was send to my grandparents. They took well care of me, assuring I got the love I deserved. I miss them, mostly grandma. S-she was the mother I-I didn't have." Pure said, tears welling up in his eyes as memories poured in. His voice got hoask as he tried to not cry. Twilight took the chair from his magic, allowing him to whipe a few tears away and focus.

"Sorry, it's just that it brings back a lot of memories. I don't have much family left. Eventhough Applejack and I are related, she hasn't really been the family I hoped I would find. Not that's she bad or anything, she's just... Not a leaf." Pure said, tears going down his cheeks. Twilight put a hoof on his shoulder, her face sad. He looked up, just in time to see a tear go down her cheek.

"Mayby it's better if you do a few things here whilst I go upstairs to recover a bit. It's a lot to process." Pure said, standing up on his shaky hooves.

"Yeah, mayby that's better." Twilight said, putting the chair she was holding on it's new spot. Pure went up the stairs to his bedroom. She watched as the stallion went upstairs. After Pure had vanished to the first floor, she started working on the rest, moving tables and chairs around. It's something else to see him cry. I know how important family is, but he lost some important family very quickly. I feel sorry for him Twilight thought as she put a few of the pictures on the shelves. The picture of Pure's parents was put back in the box thought.


"I'm SO sorry! I'd wish that I had more time! But Spike just send me a note that I'm needed at the castle!" Twilight said as she walked out the door of Pure's house, quickly followed by him.

"You're a PRINCESS, Twilight! Things like this can happen! If you can, come by next time. I'll assure that everything is at it's right spot. Now go!" Pure said, waving a hoof at Twilight. The mare left, putting her saddlebags from before on. Pure looked at the saddlebags, aware of something new in the bags.

He watched as the princess left, taking of and flying her way to her castle.

And now just pray she'll find it he thought before closing the door.



Author's Note
