A Tale Of A New Beginning

"Spectrum. Sweetie. There is somepony at the door waiting for you. They would like to hang out with you and Noone today" Twilight nudged her daughter softly, waking her from her light slumber.

"Whaa~ Tell them I'll be there in *yawn* a few minutes" The violet alicorn rolled off her bed and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. She walked to her bathroom and splashed some water on her face before brushing her mane.

After getting slightly more presentable. Spectrum walked out of her room to the main entrance where she saw Noone conversing with a purple unicorn.

"Hey 'Clipse! This is Fear, she's a few month younger than you. She's Fluttershy's daughter" Noone grinned.

"Hello, Fear. We didn't get to talk much last night. It's good to meet you"

"You to Princess" Fear bowed her head and looked away a bit.

"Now now, no need for any formality. We can talk as friends, no need for fancy titles. And besides, I'm technically not even a princess yet. Still another few years"

Fear smiled, showing a pair of fangs.

"Hey, uh Fear? Mind if I ask about your heritage and why you have fangs?" Spectrum asked, trying to be polite. Not wanting her to get angry or upset.

"Oh. Well with my mothers 'incident' being Flutterbat. And also my.....dad...."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought it up" Spectrum's ears folded back in shame.

"No, it's just that. I never got to meet him. All I know is that he's a draconequus and his name is Discord"

"Woah, hold up. Discord? As in DISCORD DISCORD???" Noone jumped forward in shock, right into Fear's face

"Well, yeah. I only know of one Discord"

Spectrum rubbed her temples.

"So you are telling us that your father is the one and only Discord, the reformed Draconequus?"

"Yes. I guess so"

"Princess Celestia's children, Paradox and Penrose's father is Discord! You are blood-related to ROYALTY!"

"Wait, what?!" Fear's face flushed red.

"I-I-I, What?!"

"You are so cool. I would like to find out more about your magic later. So what do you like to do?" Spectrum asked. Fear's magic was unique. Unlike pony or draconequus, but a mix of both.

"Well, I like to play jokes on people with Pinkie Pie and I also help Pinkie at Sugarcube Corner. I'm hoping to get a job there when I'm older"

"Noone! Spectrum! Could you come here for a minute!" Rarity's voice called out

"Sorry Fear we have to go"

"That's fine. I was about to start heading home myself. I'll see you around" Fear waved bye as the two walked out of the room.

"Hehehe" Fear chuckled as her horn glowed Red and Black.

She conjured two crystals in the shape of bats and placed them down on Noone and Spectrum's beds. After one final spell, she made herself invisible, hiding from view. Now the only thing left to do is wait.

"Wow, it's so cool"

"Yeah, it's a lovely gem. Cobaltocalcite. Beautiful colour"

Noone and Spectrum picked up the large gems, but the second their hooves touched the crystal, the 'bat' became alive and started flying around the room

"EEEEEE!" Noone screeched as the bats flew over her head.

Spectrum chuckled and cast a freezing spell on the bats.

"Nice one Fear. You have to teach me that one" Spectrum smiled as the Purple unicorn appeared, mouth agape in a cavern of confusion.

"You leave a unique magic aura in the air. A perk of being partially blind"

Fear's mouth shut and turned into a smile.

"Thanks. I'm glad you appreciate my efforts"

Fear's plain flank glowed softly before intensifying. Both Noone and Spectrum gasped as a dark pink crystallised bat appeared on Fear's flank.

"You got your cutie mark! Wow!" Spectrum beamed as her new unicorn friend stood there speechless.

"Well, done girls" Twilight walked into the room.

"You two are going to do well here. Now, Fear. You might want to head on home. I'm sure your mother will want to hear about this as soon as possible" Fear nodded and ran out of the room, a massive grin on her face.

"Now you two. We have things to do. Let's get going"

"Spectrum, stop being a party pooper. This is your BIRTHDAY! Be happy for crying out loud" Noone was yelling at Spectrum, not angry but slightly pissed off but not in a bad mood. She still wore a smile on her face.

"It's just that. I don't know. I just don't feel in a good mood right now, I'm a bit distracted...." Spectrum trailed off, not intending on finishing her sentence.

"Whatever. We are going to be living here for a few years so make yourself happy. Before you know it, you'll be ruling Equestria with Flurry Heart" Noone playfully jabbed Spectrum.

"That's just why I'm distracted. You aren't going to live forever. I am" Spectrum hung her head and walked out of the room.

"Oh, hey there Spec. How are you?" Pix greeted Spectrum with a cheerful smile. But once he saw Spectrum, all happiness was wiped clean.

"Woah, what's wrong? You look exhausted!" Pix rushed forward and supported Spectrum on his shoulder which was quite difficult due to her alicorn heritage size.

"You'd better come inside"

Pix helped Spectrum inside and sat her at the table. He trotted into the kitchen and came out a few minutes later with a cup of tea.

"What happened to you? You look like you just took the Ponyville express straight to the face"

"It's nothing. I'm just stressed. Moving here was a really big change"

Spectrum sipped on the tea and looked at Pix.

"Is there anything I could do to help?" Pix asked. A hint of hope in his voice.

"No, it's fine. But I know something that would make me feel better"

"What?"

"That game you promised"

"Oh, you're on!"

The two galloped up to Pix's room and dove to each grab a controller.

"Well, colour me impressed. You won. Good game" Pix smiled.

"Nice, well I'd better get going, Noone is probably wondering here I am, I kinda flipped out in front of her. Well, bye. I'll see you soon"
