A story about Flitter and Cloudchaser. Twins, who tend to share everything.

Flitter was lying on her bed where she had been lying for almost a week now. She didn't want to eat, nor drink. But something she did want to, was tell her diary everything that had happened... "She had broken me. In the middle of our most special night, she just had to humiliate me, in front of everypony. This I can't forgive. I don't want to forgive her... Because this, I will never forget. Nor will anypony else..." "I better tell you what this is all about, don't I?" Said Flitter to her diary. And then she started writing about how everything had happened, after she had finished writing about the night she and CloudChaser had come home from their most special night. "It was just a regular morning, and..."

Chapter One: Just a regular morning.

Chapter one, Just a regular morning.

...The distant sound of the shower running stopped and after a while I heard hoofsteps getting nearer. I turned around as I heard the squealing noise of the stairs being walked on, and the slow hoofsteps getting slightly louder. At some point it sounded like she had tripped and almost fell down the stairs, but she had stopped herself from falling.

I was sitting in the kitchen as my sister walked down the stairs. She was smiling warmly at me, while ungracefully holding a towel in his mouth. "Morning, Flits!" Her mane was down, soaked and dripping water, this morning. Like it was every morning, until she made me fix it. Something was different though. Her smile. She didn't force herself to smile this morning. She was actually happy in the morning. Which she usually never were. I had rarely seen her this glad, and this was on a school morning. Sure, we had to skip a couple of lessons because of a doctors appointment around noon, and our parents weren't home. They had left us a note to give to our teachers when we came in later. It was Wednesday so we had 8 periods today. The longest day of the week, so we couldn't just skip school entirely.

"Good morning, CC." I smiled back at her, trying to forget how tired I was. I had been up at six, due to me not knowing that we had a appointment at the doctors. CC knew and thereby she had slept till nine. I had just finished fixing my own mane a couple of minutes ago, and was now playing with my bow whilst I had been waiting for my sister to come down into the kitchen and make us some breakfast.

She grinned at me; yet another thing I didn't expect to see her do in the morning. "Um.. CC?" I asked her. It was obvious that she was just really happy; but why? She hated mornings. No matter how long she slept. I was looking around in the kitchen, trying to find a reason for her to grin like that. I couldn't find anything, and she was staring directly at me.

"Yeees..?" She spoke; almost sang. She wore a wide grin on her muzzle. It was obvious that she was eagerly awaiting my question. I couldn't help but smile, on the inside, at least. She bounced around in a manner she had never done before. That was my thing. Or that pink earth pony.. What's her name again? I think it's Pinkie Pie.. Anyway, her bouncing reminded me of myself, on a absolutely amazing day, or Pinkie Pie on any day. Even when she seems to be sad she's bouncing around like some sorta insane pony.

I caught myself giggling as I spoke. "What's happened? I mean, you're so.. Happy" I smiled warmly at her. I was surprised as she almost pounced me. I let out a small "Eep!" as she pulled me into a tight hug. I began worrying as she was all quiet, just hugging me. "...CC?" I asked again whilst hugging her back. My voice had kind of just snapped. I was speaking lower than the pegasi mare that can't fly, and who never even speaks. I've never heard her name before, but she's a good friend of Rainbow Dash who's a awesome pegasus, that's for sure.

She then pushed herself away from me, looking deeply into my eyes and I felt obligated to returning the gaze. She was still smiling. I sighed in relief and she spoke. "I have something for you, Flits." She leaned closer to me and nuzzled me. And like always, I shied away when she did this. That was until I realised what she had said.

"Oh?" A smile spread on my muzzle and my eyes brightened up. "Really? What is it?" I tried my best to hide my excitement. She always gave me the most amazing things. Like once where she gave me a very expensive cherry perfume. And the necklace, with a amethyst shaped as a heart. And then there's the beautiful dress she gave me. Anyway...

"I hope you'll enjoy it li'l sis!" She giggled. In fact she was only a few minutes older than me. I stressed this out, like a I've done a million times before, before I let her continue. "Yea, yea.. I know sis. But I'm still the older sister! Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, years.. I honestly don't care, they'd all tell me I'm older than you! Plus, we're born on different dates. Anyways, I'll tell you later. We'll receive it in the mail next Saturday."

"That's ten days from now." I tried not to pout, but failed, of course. When you're excited about something and you're told to wait, you will pout. Trust me on this one. "Can't you just tell me now?"

Cloudchaser grinned. "Want a clue?" I simply nodded as a reply. "You've wanted to go there since you were just a little filly" I simply looked at her, with a confused look. I could name a few places, like Manehatten, Canterlot and Fillydelphia. The only problem was that mom and dad would never let us go somewhere like that. Well, maybe Canterlot. And I doubted that Cloudchaser was able to change that. "It does ring a couple of bells, right?" I nodded. "But too many, right?" I nodded again. She was my twin sister, and we were each other's best friend, so I told her everything, so it's not because she was reading my mind. At least I don't think so. "Mm.. I guessed so. I can tell it took a fair chunk of my bits. And since I wanna see your face when you get there I, of course, had to pay for myself too. So now I'm broke again"

"What? Broke... Again?!" I said, almost yelling. Cloudchaser nodded, but she was still smiling. "But.. Last time I asked, you had more than 2000 bits Cloudchaser!" The last two months she had been working almost every living hour. I saw her only at school, and these money she had spent on me? 2000 bits! (Assuming bits are worth the same as GBP)

"Oh, yeah. You're right. But it was quite expensive. So, you'll have to go." I couldn't read her expression, until another grin, from ear to ear, spread on her muzzle. "Oh, and we'll receive a little something from Carousel Boutique as well, Flits. I know you'll like it.. No you'll LOVE it!" She trailed off and shook her head "Derpy promised that she would deliver it today" I nodded as of I couldn't get my tongue right. Derpy, or Ditzy Doo, was a mail pony and a good friend of Cloudchaser. I had never really talked to her, but she seemed like a nice pony. I just didn't want to offend her, by looking into her eyes, or by laughing at her. She was very clumsy and I had a bad habit by laughing at stuff I shouldn't laugh at. Besides, if I got to know her, I would be even more angry every time somepony talked bad about her. I actually already tend to get angry with ponies talk bad about somepony else.

"B.. But.." I trailed off even before I had begun talking. I couldn't get my tongue right. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't speak up. Not that I was trying to say anything of importance, but it's annoying anyway.

"Yeeees~?" Cloudchaser sang. I knew what she expected me to say, but my brain had simply shut off.

"Th.. Thank you CC. I can't wail till you tell me what it is" I said as I finally got my tongue right again, smiling a warm, loving smile. A smile I had reserved for my sister, and my sister only. She returned the smile, in a unexplainable manner. This was her smile just for me.

She nodded and let go of me. "Relax, Flits. Ten days. Then you'll know. Or maybe even already when we receive these beautiful, special made pieces of wearable art from Carousel Boutique" She chuckled as she stood up. "Well, I do actually have a few bits left, and when I spared up my bits, I thought this would use up all of them.. Shall we go get some breakfast at a cafe, or something?" She said, smiling expectingly, waiting for a expression on my face, and continued as I smiled back. "Well, after you've fixed my mane!" She smiled teasingly.

"Sounds lovely, CC" I smiled back at her, ignoring her teasing look. "I'll get right to it" She sighed and accepted that I was just too kind to find such annoying.

This was a disadvantage. Living this far away from the nearest town. I don't understand why mom and dad would want to live this far away from both their hometowns, Ponyville and Cloudsdale. We had been walking for nearly half an hour, and we were only half way there. Cloudchaser smiled playfully at me as she stopped and poked my chest. "Tag" She said softly as she dashed off, flapping her wings faster than I had ever seen her do it before, but somehow she wasn't flying faster than she had done before. However that makes sense, if it even does. I started to giggle as I flied after her, desperately trying to catch up to her. It was hopeless. Cloudchaser had always been the fastest one of us.

"No fair CC!" I yelled. Hoping that she would slow down and give me a chance. "I don't stand a chance!"

"I knoooow~!" She sang back at me. She was singing unusually much today. But at this point it was annoying.

I sighed, and strained every muscle in my wings, flying faster than I had ever done before. Even faster than the time we needed to funnel the water from Ponyville to Cloudsdale. It caught Cloudchaser off guard when she felt my front hooves on her back. "Tag" I said flatly, and dashed off even faster, even though my muscles were burning. I somewhat enjoyed this pain, because it reassured me, that I was actually flying as fast as I could.

Cloudchaser shot off after me. "HEY!" My lilac coated twin sister yelled. "And you said you wouldn't stand a chance!? You're faster than ME!?" It was obvious she wasn't flying as fast as she could, but I was still faster than her.

To be continued.

Chapter Zero: Prologue.

Chapter zero, Prologue.

"Flits...?" My sister spoke quietly from behind the door. "Flits, are you alright?" She had just been standing there, for far too long, hours maybe, and it bothered me quite a lot. Why wouldn't she just leave me alone? After all she's done tonight, why can't she just leave me alone? She should know I don't want to talk to her again. Never again. "Flitter.." She spoke softly as finally pushed the door open and entered. I was sitting sobbing quietly on the bed in the dark room.

"Go away" I told her off very coldly. I could feel a lump in my throat as I spoke. It was her. She was the one who did this. Why should I ever speak to her again? Why didn't I just shut up? She ruined a special night. She ruined everything. I don't understand why she can't see what she did was absolutely horrible.

She turned the lights on, which instantly illuminated the room, and walked over to the bed I was sitting on. "Flitter.. I'm so sorry" She sat down besides me. I glances at her, into her rose coloured, beautiful eyes. I just wanted to wrap my hooves around her and get comforted. But I didn't. It was her fault after all. But it did not take long before I pointed at the door and buried my face in my hooves.

"CC.. Please.." I heard a sigh as she unwillingly stood up. I just threw myself on my bed. I wasn't going to move anytime soon.

"Sorry Flits.. I'm so.." She trailed off and wrapped her hooves around me and gave me a tight squeezey hug before she walked towards the door, closing it behind her as she left the room. Letting me alone to my thoughts. I grabbed a pillow, the one I had tossed aside earlier and found myself staring at it for a minute before I buried my face in it. I cried into the pillow the whole evening. Waiting for mom and dad to come home and help me feel comfortable, something Cloudchaser wasn't able to, for the first time I ever. It was the very first time in my entire life I didn't want to see her. That is even though we have been hurting each other before. But never like this. I don't think I'll ever forgive her. She'd made me feel horrible, why would I forgive her...? Because she's my twin sister, that's why.

CloudChaser had walked into Flitter's room and left a plate with some carrots, tomatoes, lettuce... And a note saying "I'm sorry" Flitter took a bite of a carrot and put it back on the plate, then left the plate on her bed, where CloudChaser had put it to begin with. She sighed loudly and spoke softly, to her diary again. "And now I should start telling you about how it all started..."

To be continued.
