Seline and Sol: The Third Alicorn
Prologue: The End of Kingdom
Load Full StoryNext ChapterOnce upon a time in the land of Equestria, there were two Alicorns. The elder Alicorn had the power to raise the sun and influence emotions. The younger Alicorn had the power to raise the moon and influence the mind. Together they created balance and harmony.
Over the years the younger began to feel anger and saddness for her night was not apperciated by the ponies as they slept through it every night. Her emotions grew out of control as she saw the sun getting the glory deserved by the night.
The elder did not notice the younger alicorns pain and cotinued her duties, as the younger grew darker and darker. The elder grew brighter and brighter. This all changed when the elder received a vision from the heavens. It was time to create a new alicorn using the powers of the stars and magic.
The two gathered where magic was the strongest to create the new Queen however before she could even take her first breath. The foal was stolen into the shadows by a figure unknown.
This caused both Alicorn's saddness and anger. Eventually the younger began to blame the elder for the lose of the foal, she began to fight and fight using all her years of frustrations. Neither could beat the other as they had equal power, the fighting stopped once the Alicorns realised that innocents could be hurt, and had been hurt. The younger left equestria and began her new kingdom refusing to ever speak with the elder again.
"...And that my little ponies is how equestria ended and Seline and Sol began, Any questions?" Asked Queen Celestia, as she closed the dusty book full of many stories from the past and placed it back on the bookshelve with all her other memories of the past.
She looked across the table and saw a purple hoof was raised in the air, the Alicorn looked at the pony attached. She was a young purple filly, from what the Queen had seen the filly was brilliant and very gifted in magic. She was the perfect candidate for the Element of Magic.
"Yes Twilight?" asked the Queen in a soothing voice, so she did not scare the filly.
"Umm your majesty, are you the Alicorn from the story?" asked the young unicorn in a shaking voice. The Queen paused for a moment, the young unicorn started shaking and began to borrow into the unicorn next to her. A single thought ran through the filly, she had made the Queen uncomfortable and now she was going to banish her and she would never see Sunny or Shiny or her parents again.
The fillys train of thoughts were interupted by her older sister poking her side, "are you okay Twi?" she asked leaning down to the smaller's level.
"I'm fine Sunny" Twilight decided to ask her question again, in case the Queen didn't hear her or thought she said something different."Are you the Alicorn from the story, your majesty?" Twilight asked again.
"I am, but this happened quite a long tim-"
"Then why don't you influence emotions like the pony in the story?" Sunset asked, interupting the Queen. The Queen looked over at the orange filly, Sunset Shimmer was her student and was also the perfect candidate for the Element. As she was brilliantly gifted like her sister.
"Both of us agreed that we had too much power and agreed to give it to a trusted a pony for safe giving. The trusted pony would then become the sole guardian of the gift. They are often referred to as our wings." replied the Queen.
"Why--" A yawn interupted the orange filly from finishing her question, she looked over and saw that her sister had fallen asleep on her cushion.
"I think it's time for my little ponies to go to bed, I'll get a guard to escort you to your mother" the Queen said while nodding to a guard who was posted by the door across the room.
Sunset grumbled that she could walk home and they didn't need their mother. She grabbed her younger sister, for she was oldest and it was her job to take her of her younger sister.
Celestia watched as the two fillies left, prehaps it was time to write another letter to Luna about the Elements she thought, for these two fillies could solve all of Celestia's problems and possibly mend her bond with her fellow Alicorn.
Celestia then left her chambers, it was time to head to the throne room, to check on the Summer Sun Celebration.
Far Far Away from Sol, in a castle
A lone figure was seen on balcony lowering the moon, this figure was a dark blue alicorn with starry mane that did not obey grativity. The Alicorn was crying, for it was the anniversary for the day, she had lost everything. In her hooves she was holding a small toy, a pony with a grey coat and mismatched eyes. It was her greatest treasure that she had made for what was suppose to be the happiest day of her life.
A knocking at her door interupted her grieving, Who dared interupted her greiving when she had commanded that she left alone, so that she could cry in peace and forget everything.
She composed herself, for it would do for her subjects to see her in such a state. She walked inside, "Enter!" She commanded in no mood to be nice.
"Your m-majesty" said a mail pony from the other side of the room, far away from the greiving Alicorn, hoping to avoid the Alicorn's rage.
"I commamnded that I not be distrubed tonight" the Alicorn screamed in the Royal Voice. Serving only to scare the poor mail pony further.
"I...I know your m...majesty but a roya..l message came from the K..Kingdom of S..Sol. You commanded al..l these messages be sent to you the m..moment the arrive" the stallion shook more hoping that he would be in one piece, it was a known fact that those who destrubed the Queen on her night off were punished.
Nobles were made to be servants for a day, servants would be sent to do the hardest labour and while every pony adored their Queen, she was quite terrifying when disobeyed.
"Give me the letter and its importance shall decide your fate"
The mail pony ran as fast as he could towards the Queen, gave her the letter and went into a low bow.
The Queen quickly grabbed the letter using her magic and skimmed its contents. She expected another pathetic from her sister for them to mend their bond, which it was.
Her magic was ready to destory the letter, until she saw a name, Twilight Sparkle. It was familiar and she wasn't taking any chances when it came to the past. After all her past was full of pain and nightmares.
The Alicorn quickly rang a bell summoning a servant to her chambers, in a matter of seconds a light grey earth pony appeared and dipped into a low bow. "Servant Dusty, quickly bring me my Wings." The Earth pony quickly disappeared to find the Queen's most trusted pony.
She then looked at the shaking mail pony, he cleary was expecting the worst with all of his shaking. "You are free to go" she snapped.
"Thank you, Thank you Queen Luna."
Back in the Kingdom of Sol
It was now night, Twilight noted as she looked out her window, and every pony was awake. It was the Night before the Summer Sun Celebration, the night where everypony stays awake and attends the various celebrations around the city. Including a little filly like Twilight, despite her attempts to make every pony believe she was a big pony like Sunny, Shiny and Cadance.
Twilight's house was in the noble district and she hated the stuffy ponies that her father and mother adored. Her family's was a luxurious house of Queen Celestia's Personal student and every night for the past month it was filled with yelling and agruments.
Twilight tried to stop the fighting but someone always pulled her aside and took upstairs. Tonight it was Cadance turn to watch Twilight for the night, while they were fighting. Twilight sat on a cushion on the floor and Cadance joined her, they were going to be having a tea party with Twilight's Dolls.
She pulled the pillow over her ears to block out the noise of her family fighting. "Candance, can you sing me a lullaby? I don't want to hear Shiny and Mother fighting again" asked Twilight in a small voice, no one had sung to her besides Sunny since her mother and father had seperated.
"Of course Twilight", a lovely singing voice filled the room and the filly quickly relaxed and focused on her Unicorn doll, Lady Vivian of the Books. Twilight was so distracted by her Lady Books and the soothing song. That She didn't see the green flash that appeared, in her foal sitters eyes. Or that her foal sitter had suddenly started using green magic to lift up Sir Doughnut, protector of Doughnuts and Lady Vivian.
