Oneshots of Mlp Next Generation

Muffled sobs echoed across the vast castle. Meanwhile Princess Twilight Sparkle, her husband Flash Sentry and their 13 year old son Night Light sat at the kitchen table, deep in thought. Cold hard stares fixated themselves on the kitchen counter, silence surrounding the small group. No one had known what to say to the 17 year old girl, who had shut herself up in her room for the past two days, only coming down to eat, then marching back upstairs. Everyday had an emotional period. Day one was the day where she locked herself up and nothing was heard of her, no crying, no shouting and no phone calls. Her friends had been coming round all day, walking up to her room and then coming back downstairs shaking their heads in frustration and disappointment. Day two had been a series of workout, inside and out. Stretches in her room with grunts and counting, followed by sprinting and flying around the castle. Golden Delicious had come by and dropped off a few watermelon cakes gazing sympathetically upstairs before heading out.

Finally day three had rolled round and then the hurt and anger had all poured out. First, slams of boxes had contents dumped into it, then the stretch of tape sealed it shut. After a few hours sniffles had turned into cry’s, finally escalating into sobs. Her family had tried to talk to her but had been politely ignored and had stayed out of her way. It hurt Twilight and Flash to see her in this state... and they didn’t even know why. They had presumed that it had been something that affected her training, but then as she began to consume ice cream they had suspected it had been something else. Although her friends hadn’t told them what it was about, they were fairly sure that it has been a breakup of some sort, Starburst had never fully explained her... romance rendezvous. Apparently not even her closest friends knew who it was. Only one boy knew and he was in an equally depressed mood.

Prism Bolt was sitting out front of the Sparkle Sentry house. His brow was furrowed in concentration, his heart thumping fast against his chest. Breath Prism...breathe. He was was waiting outside, wrapped in a coat, thinking about how to approach Starburst. If he ever had the nerve to go into and face her. Coward, he thought. It’s your own fault that you kissed that girl. And didn’t tell Starburst. And then she found out by her friends. Because you were to much of a coward to tell her yourself. He thought miserably.

He had been spending the last hour and a half outside on her doorstep, waiting for him to pluck up the courage and knock. Like it would ever happen. Not unless Starburst wouldn’t throw him out of the house without a word. He didn’t even know how she would react and Candy and Annie hadn’t been that useful because Star wouldn’t talk to anyone. I miss her... my beautiful shining star he thought wistfully. He frowned in sadness at a sudden memory.

It had been their third date and things has been going great. So far. This time, Prism had been broke and hadn’t afford a restaurant. He didn’t want to disappoint Starburst so soon, so he had decided to make a few sandwiches and drive her to a quiet field, where they could go stargazing. At first Starburst could have been more impressed, but as the stars came out her commentary stopped and she looked up in awe. Prism had looked over after five minutes of surprising silence and smiled widely. Her head was propped up, arms behind her head, gazing at the sky. Star’s amethyst eyes sparkled and reflected the sky’s beauty, outlining her features. Her lips curled up into a smile and turned to him smiling widely.

“Ya know, for a cheap date this is pretty...amazing.”

“Anything for you my shining star.” He teased kissing her forehead. She gave him a glance that said “don’t call me that” and turned back to the stars. Prism scooted closer to her and wrapped his arm around her. Starburst moved in closer and let him hold her and kissed the top of his head. She continued to watch the sky, and eventually fell asleep gathered in Prism’s arms feeling giddy with happiness and comfort.

Prism relished the memory and and smiled sadly. That was one of their best dates and the first time Prism realized that it was going to work out, and that they could have a future together. He still thought that now and he hated himself for thinking it. He didn’t deserve thinking after what he did to Starburst. The memory was still like salt to a wound even though he wasn’t the one hurt. He rubbed his forehead deep in thought. Should I go in... no....should I...?

Prism had been going out with Candy, Del, Annie, T and Créme. Créme had a friend that owned a bar in Canterlot and she suggested it to the group, inviting them over. Claire wasn’t sure about the alcohol and Red June didn’t want to go. So Claire and Red June decided to have time in the Crystal Palace with Illusion and Valiant Heart. Starburst was going with her mother to Yakyakistan to sign a peace treaty and couldn’t come.

Meanwhile everyone had taken the train to Canterlot and met Créme there, all of them in party clothes. Prism had texted Starburst quickly.

-“See ya later babe, at the train station and about to go into the bar.”

-“Bye Priz, have fun. Ugh wish me luck with the Yaks”

Prism smiled tucked his phone into his back pocket walking into the bar.

That was when it all went wrong. He had started drinking and talking to other women, engaging in flirtatious teasing but nothing happened. Until she walked it, he thought half malice and half hatred for himself. She had long black hair and light blue eyes, surrounded with eyeliner that didn’t make her seem gothic, but more like a goddess. She wore a long black dress with a slit on the left side of her dress and black heels that made her Prism’s height. She... was gorgeous. But even though Prism was drunk, a part of him was nagging him that Starburst was way prettier than her but even as he was gazing at the girl in confusion he couldn’t help but... have a strong attraction to her. It’s not like it was horrible for couples to have attractions, hell it wasn’t God forbidden, even Starburst has a one on Fletcher. But it still made him feel guilty no matter what he thought.

Meanwhile as he was staring off into space, the girl was sauntering to him wiggling her hips staring directly into his green eyes intimidating him. He shrank back a bit and ordered another drink turning to face the bar.

“Hello there sexy.” Her voice was effortlessly gorgeous. It was smooth and low in a sultry way and as she leaned over him he shivered with delight,

“Er... hi.” Prism stumbled over his words and flushed slightly with embarrassment.

“I thought you, the hottest in the bar, would be a bit more with the words.” She said placing her hand over his.

“Well I am, just not tonight I guess.” He slurred his words a bit. “I’ve got a girlfriend.” He stated blankly.

“Well... that’s not stopping me from doing this...” Her hand glided over his palm and rested her index finger lightly on the surface of his hand. She moved it around gently and leaned in closer, breathing lightly onto Prism’s face. He leaned away from her scrunching his face up in confusion.

“Er... lady.” He turned around slightly and she chose her moment to attack. Her lips pressed against his and sucked on his bottom lip. He returned the kiss closing his eyelids halfway. He wasn’t even fully alert; half awake and half asleep. He made a noise of bewilderment and pushed away slightly.

“What?” She asked annoyed, yet confused.

Prism looked at her confused and turned around to see if anyone was watching. His eyes slid around the crowd concerned and no one was watching so far. Thankfully. Then he faced the stage, and staring back at him, horrified, were Candy and Créme with Annie looking worried.

Prism’s eyes widened and he pushed away from the girl as she yelled ‘Hey!’. He speedily walked over to where they were, staggering slightly, but when he got there the girls were no where in sight and T and Del were grabbing him and dragging him outside. That was the last thing he remembered before he passed out.

After that he had gotten yelled at by the guys and disapproving expressions from the girls. He had begged them not to tell her and back they had reluctantly agreed. Although Annie has gone and told Amber, and then Amber told Claire. Prism had spent the entire day searching the trail so Starburst wouldn’t find out. It all came to a pointless search, when he finished off with Crystal Clarity saying she had told her. She had apologized over and over between lectures. Starburst didn’t deserve that Prism and how could you! I feel bad and all but this is no ones fault but your owns. She was going to find out anyways.

It all ended when Prism called Starburst for the hundredth time.

“...hello. Starburst? Staburst please hear me out-“

‘No.” Her voice was low, but not raspy. It contained hidden fury and emotions only Prism could feel. “You don’t talk to me. You don’t get to say anything.”

“Star. Please.” His voice had broke and he was on then verge of crying.

Starburst had made a small hiccup noise, before hanging up. That was the last time he had heard from, and any of the others has heard from her.

Here he was sitting on her house doorsteps, rethinking his stupid decision and how much of an ass he was. I need to do this. I owe it to her., he thought, and with that he stood up abruptly and knocked on the house door.

A loud knock echoed through the large castle and it alerted the royal family.

“I’ll get it!” Night Light shouted, running from the kitchen. He opened the door widely and broke out a grin. Unfortunately what he was met with was the exact opposite. Prism Bolt was standing outside in the cold with a red nose and purple lips. His hair was mused and his expression; miserable.

“Hello there Prism Bolt. What can I help you with.”

“Um... is your... sister here?” He said. His voice was laced with excitement but something else, which Nighty couldn’t place.

“Yeah she’s here but... we’ll she hasn’t been talking to anyone so you can try your luck but she probably won’t come to the door. Why don’t you come in?”

“Um, I’d rather not. I’m fine here it’s just. Your sister. Please.” He pleaded, green eyes wide and light bags underneath them.

Night Light shrugged. No one had really tried to talk to her besides her friends. Maybe she would listen to her brother. He left the door open and clambered up the stairs toward some his sister’s room.

“Star?” Nighty asked hesitantly after knocking the door.

“What.” A flat, monotone voice came from the other side.

“Someone’s here to see you.”

“Who.”

“Prism Bolt.” Night Light responded nervously.

“What! How DARE he come here.” She yelled. “That’s it.”

Starburst swung the door open, accidentally pushing Nighty to the side. She stormed down the stairs and ran to the front door, biting her lip hoping that it would take the pain of her broken heart away. As she turned the corner of the stairway, her heart skipped a beat. Her ex was standing outside in the cold, with slightly red eyes and a puffer jacket. He saw her and his mouth widened into an oh shape.

“What do you want Prism.” Her voice wobbled a bit.

“Star please hear me out. I’m begging you.”

“You lost that privilege when you cheated Prism.” She spat the words as if it was to bitter.

“Um...I’m going...to uh... leave.” Nighty promptly left the hallway and entered the kitchen swinging the door shut behind him. Neither of them watched him go.

“Star It was an accident she meant nothing!”

“Well clearly she meant SOMETHING to jeopardize our RELATIONSHIP!” She yelled and barely contained herself from beating him up.

“Star. I know I made a mistake and- and it was an idiot dumbass stupid mistake, but I still love you, Star please.” His voice cracked and a waterfall of emotions spilt. Starburst couldn’t stand to watch and faced away, leaning on the door frame, eyes shut,hoping that it would stop her from bawling.

“Just...give me one more chance.” He leaned towards her, close enough to smell her coconut shampoo. Starburst turned around and they gently kissed. His hand crept up to cradle her cheek but it got slapped away, as she moved back.

“No. No Prism you can’t just kiss me after what you did.” After a moment of silence she spoke again.”I think you should go.”

“What? No please can we talk Starburst.” She turned to him and started crying.

“Don’t leave me like this. I-I'm going to mi-miss these hands.” He grabbed them and rubbed them gently. “An-and these eyes. And these lips.” They were both crying tears of pain, misery and heartbreak.

“N-no. Please.” Starburst cried. Prism walked away in tears as Starburst closed the door. She then sank against it and cried harder into her hands.

“Oh baby.” Her mother came over to her daughter and wrapped her in her arms. Starburst sat where she was as her brother and father came over whispering soothing words.

“We’re so sorry.” Twilight crooned. Starburst’s wet tears fell, as she drifted off into the warm and loving arms of her family.
