As Nightshade felw to Canterlot he heard something a voice.

"What are you going Nightshade and what have you done?" The voice spoke to him.

Nightshade whipped around what he saw shocked him. There in front of him was his father and mother.

"WHAT! NO YOU TWO ARN'T HERE YOU CAN'T BE!" Nightshade yelled at his mother and father.

Nightshade stared at them. He kept staring and he realised that it was his sub conscience. He started hitting his head.

"Cut it out head there is nothing wrong with what I'm doing." Nightshade said to himself.

"Yes there is." His mother said.

He glared at her with a fear spreading gaze it did nothing.

"Shut up your not real your all in my head and, and." Nightshade couldn't finish but he knew he had to beat his mind so he did. "and you left me for dead you never loved me."

"Didn't love you! Nightshade of course we loved you. You should know that." Nightshades dad spoke.

"Then why did you leave?" Nightshade asked

Nightshade started to forget they weren't actually there his mind was winning the battle for control.

"We had no choice we need to get better jobs and we knew once you got the money or finished school you would come find us in Ponyville." Nightshades mother spoke in a gently voice.

Nightshade's mind was winning. Untill his rage came to a boil trying to keep him on his corse of destroction.

"YOU HAD NO RIGHT TO LEAVE ME! NONE! WE ALL COULD OF FOUND A WAY TO GET MONEY!" Nightshade bellowed at his parent's total forgetting they weren't there.

"Like what Nightshade? Rob a bank that was about the only other thing we could do!" His father pushed his mother a side and walked right up to Nightshade.

"IF WE HAD TO YES WE WOULD ROB A BANK I-" Nightshades father interrupted him

"WE DIDN'T RAISE YOU THIS WAY NIGHTSHADE YOUR BETTER THEN THIS!" His father screamed at him.

Nightshades mind was in a war with the hate, rage, and chaos that controlled him. Everyponies life rested on which side won and so far Nightshades mind was losing.

"I WAS DEPRESSED FOR THREE DAYS DAD THREE! I DIDN'T EAT OR SLEEP ONCE I FOUND OUT YOU LEFT!" Nightshade screamed back.

"Boys." His mom said but she was drowed out by there yelling and screaming

"WE DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE WE DID IT FOR YOU NIGHTSHADE!" His father exclaimed

"Boys" Nightshades mother said a little louder but to still no prevail

"NO YOU DID IT FOR YOURSELVES YOU FOUND ME TO BE A FREAK AND DECIDED TO LEAVE ME ALONE HOPING I WOULD DIE!" Nightshade roared back at his father.

"BOYS" Nightshade mother bellowed

Nightshade and his dad jumped and looked at her.

"Nightshade you know everything we did was for the best and you know we loved you with all are hearts." His mother told him with all the worlds love and care in her voice.

"Th-then why did you leave me?" Nightshade whimpered tears starting to roll down his face. "Why did you leave me all alone? "

Nightshade broke down tears pouring down his face. In his head his mind had won the war the chaos that controled it, the rage, and hate where destroyed and replaced with kindness and caring.

"Nightshade we can't answer that questions we are only your sub conscience." His mother said.

Nightshade had total forgotten that they weren't actually there.

"Go find you real parents and ask them that question they can answer it." Nightshades father spoke to him.

Nightshade floted there, then he nodded his head.

"I will."

With that his parents were gone. Nightshade looked around to find out where he was. He was flying right over Ponyville. A smile ten miles wide grew on his face and for the first time in four years it was a happy smile not insane one. He sped down to Ponville and flew right through the open window of the mayers office. He landed right in front of her with a loud thud. The mayer jumped a mile.

"Who are you, what are you, and what do you want from me please don't hurt me!"The mayer was freaking out at Nightshade it made him laugh.

"My name is Nightshade I'm here for two reasons." He said with a gentle voice.

The mayer calmed down and took her seat.

"Very well what do you need Nightshade?" The mayer asked still on the egde of her seat.

"One i need to know if there is a place where I can work. Two is do you know where my parents are they moved to Ponyville four years ago. Please if you can only help me with one of them help me find my parents." Nightshade told the mayer tears forming in the corners of his eyes.

The Mayer looked at Nightshade he was a big pony and looked like he was made by a Mr.Potato pony company. Tears forming in the corner of the Mayers eyes she said to him with a gentle tone. "I will help you get a job later. First lets find your parents."

Nightshade started to smile and he flew over and hugged the mayer

"THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" Nightshade blurted out with joy.

The Mayer hugged him back and he put her down. She strolled over to the filing cabinet and looked through it. After a good five minutes of searching she found the file.

"Ah here we are the address of where your parents live is 467 sugercube coner." The Mayer announced closing the file and placing it back in the cabinet. Nightshade started to jump up and down with glee. He flew over to the Mayer hugged her and kissed her on the cheek told her thank about six hundred more times then flew to the address. The Mayer stood there for a minute trying to figure out what just happened. Then she turned red realized Nightshade had kissed her, she felt her cheek, mumbled something, and then sat back in her chair. Nightshade flew around looking for sugercube coner. He found it and landed right on the front door of the house. Nervous he knocked on the door. He heard someone moving around inside and out of the corner of his eye he saw a curtains open then close. He heard someone running then the door flew open and his mother rapped her hoofs around him and started crying. Nightshade returned the hug and started to cry along with her.

"Honey we have a vister come see who it is." Nightshades mother yell to his father in the other room.

Nightshade heard hoof steps and looked over his mother shoulder.

"Please tell me it's not pinkie-." He never finshed he looked up and saw Nightshade. Something that Nightshade had never seen his dad do started to happen. His dad started to cry. Nightshade troted over to him and hugged him tight. That night Nightshade stayed at his parents and talked they told him everything he was happy to know the turth. Well some of it any way.
