Plans and Departures

We attended their funeral. But one question keeps popping in our head, "why did Celestia or the royal guards do nothing while they were attacking and killing ponies?" Celestia answered with an "I didn't see them until they left.

How was that possible? They weren't hidden. We could never figure it out. Our parents didn't know. All we knew was that two ponies came in and killed two others in cold blood. Right in front of their children. Tree Flame was devastated losing his parents like that.

Tree Flame was beside himself, crying to himself. His parents were very nice and very clever. Who wanted them dead, and why?

"I must figure out what to do with the two. I don't think they can stay" Celestia said

"You can't send them away, who knows what could happen!?" Techno's mother said in a worried tone

"I know this is hard, but they might be in danger staying here" Celestia responded

"Dear, we can't take care of them..." Techno's father said

"Can't you protect them with your guards?" Techno's mother said

"Miss, we would have stopped them if we knew they were here," a royal guard said

"We can take care of both!" Techno's mother said

"Dear, we can barely handle Techno. We can't take either of them," Techno's father said

"We can help with one, even with Wavelength," Mystic's mother said

"I can keep an eye on Grove while in Magic kindergarten. Though Tree is a different story" Celestia said with concern.

I didn't hear much else, Techno ran to Tree and I followed him. He was getting worse every minute.


It turns out that Grove was going to stay while Tree was being sent to Cloudsdale. It was a very tense argument. All I knew was, that was the plan. Now I can see what was wrong with it, but Celestia had a plan, and confidence in this idea.

Two days later, he departed to Cloudsdale whereas Grove stayed in Canterlot. He was supposed to go meet some ponies that would help him. How did it go? Not so well, but Wavelength can tell you that.

It was tough to see our parents that way, but we soon got over it and went on with our lives. We never forgot them though.


Somewhere else, Unknown

"Good job, I trust killing them was that difficult, was it?" A strange voice said

"No, sir. I couldn't have been simpler. They didn't even know we were there... not until it was too late," Blaze replied

"And what did you do with the two children?" The voice asked

"I let them go, they won't be trouble to us... they'll be too scared to touch us after that," Blaze laughs a little

"I knew there was a reason we hired you. Some may call you demented, but I think it's clever and can be charming. Ahahahaha," The voice starts to laugh at his comment, Blaze follows suit.

"Should we make our move to the other pegasus?" Anchor asked

"Ah right. What's her name again?" Blaze asked

"Bexy Flair, and remember everything, you must not fail here. There will be severe consequence if you fail," The mysterious voice said

"Where is she again?" Blaze asked

"Manehatten... Go quickly, our friend is there," The voice said before disappearing

"Ready to leave when you are, sir," Anchor said


How do I know this? Somepony told us, not when we were young, but more recently. She likes to keep her name secret, so I will not tell you right now.

Bexy was in danger, but nopony other than Celestia knew that. Why were they targeting Bexy? Or who is Bexy?

Bexy is Techno's cousin from Manehatten. She was with her parents until 5 years old, where certain practices made them get arrested and she was moved to Cloudsdale.

Whoops, did I spoil a surprise? Sorry.

Now both Tree Flame and Bexy Flair was in Cloudsdale, nopony to watch over them.
