The birth of something new

Thinking of you, wherever you are. We pray for our sorrows to end, and hope that our hearts will blend. Now I will step forward to realize this wish. And who knows: starting a new journey may not be so hard, or maybe it has already begun. There are many worlds, but they share the same sky — one sky, one destiny. - Kairi

‘Princess Celestia’s School for Gifted Ponies,' the one school where you just can’t help but feel like you’re at home. That is, unless you’re a rookie, like a shy pegasus named Midnight Wolf. He had just arrived at the school and it was his first day.

“I-I don’t know about this, Mom. What if I don't make it through the first year?” Midnight said, panic evident in his voice.

“Don’t worry, Midnight. You’ll do great. I promise” Flora Wolf replied, patting Midnight on the back. “If anything goes wrong, Princess Celestia will be there. Now go along now, Midnight. Love you”.

Midnight smiled up at his mother, “love you too, Mom.”

Midnight started running towards the front door, but as he passed through the door, he tripped and fell flat on his face. He knew instantly that this first day of school was not going to end well as he got up from the ground and started walking away.

Suddenly, everything was turning into darkness.

The scene changes into a Stallion waking up and gasping. The colt had grey skin, white hair, grey eyes, white gloves, and a strange symbol-like cutie mark.

He gets up from his bed and rubs his eyes.

"Another dream about him....." The young Stallion said.

He shrugs it off as he gets out of bed as he hears the sound of a familer voice. It was Princess Celestia.

"Come on, Sunlight. You're gonna be late for school" Celesita said.

"I'm coming, mom" The young Stallion named Sunlight said.

Sunlight gets up and puts on a white shirt that said "The power of the sun in the palm of my hoof" with a picutre of the sun on it and heads out the door.

Somewhere in the Everfree Forest, there was a castle of the two sisters and inside was a pony with a dark cloak, sitting on a rock in the shadows. Until he hears something right next to him. It was a pink pony with red hair and a flower-like sword.

"You have arrived" The Stallion in the cloak said.

"Not for you....so....where is he"? the pink mare asked.

"He's gone missing"?

"Yes. And it was you and Xehanort's fault".

"Oh, and how is it my fault that the boy that you loved dear is missing"?

"You know why! And don't think I've forgotton that you got me killed the first time"!

"I was doing what I was destined to. Xehanort striking you down was the only way for the boy to attack him".

"And how did that work out for you"?

"Silly girl. I have no interest in Sora, anymore. I have my eyes on a brand new........nobody and he's.....the key to the stone".

"What?...What stone?.....Well...whoever you're looking for, I won't let you find him"!

"We'll soon see.."

"You won't get away with this. I will find who you're looking for and protect him".

"Are you sure about that? remember what happened last time? It got you killed".

"This time. I won't die"

"We'll see about that.........Kairi".

Back at the schoolhouse, Sunlight was playing with the Cutie Mark Crusaders on the playground, depsite his adult appearance.

"You know, I'm still surprised of this sudden growth spurt, sunlight. One year ago, you were just as tall as us, and now look at you! You've grown so big" Scootaloo said.

"Guess it makes you a superpony" Sweeite Belle said

"Well, I don't know about THAT, girls. I mean, I might have grown and that makes me Wolf-Spider" Sunlight replies sarcastically.

"We wouldn't say that. You act totally different than him" Applebloom said.

"Yeah? How so"?

"Well your super funny in your own way, you know when to be serious and when to laugh" Scootaloo answered

"And your really smart for a colt your age" Applebloom added on.

"Aaw shux, girls. You're gonna make me blush" Sunlight said, looking embarrased.

"But you're still our friend, no matter how fast you grow" Scootaloo said and smiles.

"Thanks girls. I needed that" Sunlight said as he hugs the three fillies.

"You need more than that, stupid flank" a mysterious voice says.

Sunlight turns around to see Diamond Tiara.

Sunlight groans at the sight and says "You still haven't learned from last time? Seesh, you'll never learn".

"Last time you cheated and you know it, sunlight"!

"Oh yeah? prove it! Winner gets to be class president"!

"Ugh! Not today. I'm not in the mood to deal with you".

"What what's wrong? You yellow"?

That one word. "Yellow". Anypony that calls him that word always gets him mad and gets his attention.

"What was that"? Sunlight asks.

"You heard me! Are you yellow"? Diamond Tiara insults him.

"Don't listen to her, Sunlight! She's just trying to get under your skin" Scootaloo said.

"Please. Ignore her" Sweetie belle added on.

".........Stand back, girls" Sunlight said as he walked forward. "The last time I defeated you in one of these challenges, you were twice the size I was".

"This time will be different. Once I beat you, I'll prove that you're just a colt in stallion's body" Dimanond Tiara said.

"At least I make a handsom stallion" Sunlight smirks.

"Oh you little-".

Sunlight laughs as the challenge begins.

After an hour of voting, it was decided. But something goes wrong. When Ms.Cheerilee goes check on the votes, a white monster swoops in, steals all of the votes, and runs off.

"HEY"! Sunlight shouts at the monster.

"How are we supposed to know who won, now"?! Diamound Tiara said.

Just then, Sunlight decides to run off to chase after the monster.

"SUNLIGHT WAIT" Cheerilee shouted.

But Sunlight doesn't listen and still chases after the monster. But what it doesn't know that it is leading him towards the everfree forest.

to be continued....

Sanctuary

Sunlight was chasing the monster all across the Everfree Forest. A few times, he had to stop in order to take a few deep breaths. After a few minutes, Sunlight gets a little tired.

"Hey......get...back...here" Sunlight sai while panting.

He gets ready to run again when suddenly, he finds something else. He finds a statue....

"What.....what is this?......Wolf-Spider?....is that you"? Sunlight says as he looks at the statue. "Why did you lead me here"?

Suddenly, a purple glow was coming from the very top of the statue. Sunlight gets curious and flies to the top. What he finds is a glowing, purple rock

"What...what is this"? he says. "Is this some kind of stone"?

Sunlight grabs the mysterious rock and then feels a sudden pain in his head and his eyes began to glow purple.

When he made it to recess, he was just sitting alone in the shade, and he didn’t socialize with anypony. He also had trouble flying, as he never learned how to prior to that day. Even though he didn't have many friends, he did have a companion, who equated to a voice in his head. Just like an imaginary friend.

“You hear about the new pony that got transferred from Cloudsdale?” A unicorn said, sass prevalent in her voice. “I’ve heard he just arrived today.”

“Yeah. I heard he hardly had any friends,” another unicorn said. “I even heard that he can’t fly.”

“HA, what a loser.”

When Midnight heard those voices, it pushed him over the edge. His fur turned hot red, conveying the anger that raged inside of him. Desperate to prove them wrong, Midnight climbed to the roof of the school and got ready to jump. Everypony at the school went outside, watching Midnight from above. Even Celestia herself even showed up.

“MIDNIGHT, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DON’T DO IT!” Celestia yelled, her voice laced with worry.

Midnight jumped and started flapping his wings. He was sweating all over but managed to get fairly high up. Showing himself behind the sun, he finally proved to everypony that he COULD fly.

However, as he struggled to retain his altitude, there was an explosion that resounded through the air. When everypony looked behind Midnight, they found a massive ring of rainbow light passing the sky. The blast was coming right for Midnight, but he was so focused on staying aloft that he didn't see the ring headed for him. Everypony tried to tell him to turn around but that didn’t help at all.

“MIDNIGHT, WATCH OUT” Celestia screamed.

Her voice managed to reach him and he turned around to look, but was too late. He was quickly caught up in the blast. He started falling to the ground, the shockwave leaving him unconscious. Celestia tried to save him but was too late. He literally crashed into the ground. When the dust cleared up, everypony watched in awe as Midnight simply got back up. The impact had apparently woken him up immediately.

“Woah… What happened?” Midnight asked, feeling a little woozy.

“Are you okay?” Celestia asked Midnight, searching over him for injury.

She was scared but Midnight simply shrugged it off, saying he was going home. He didn’t feel well, like he was going to be sick. He began walking away, not saying a word. As he walked, his fur turned a deep shade of blue. He thought that was a complete waste of his own time and just made a fool out of himself in front of the whole school. But the real question on everypony's mind was how did he survive that blast from the sonic rainboom?

Sunlight screams and throws the rock out of fear and backs away.

"That..exlposion....my mother....WHAT DID I SEE"?! Sunlight shouted "And that power! What kind of power was that"?!

Sunlight looks at the rock once more and decides....to bury it for now.

"I gotta tell my mom"! Sunlight says as he runs off. But while he was running, the purple rock started to glow again and a mysterious shadow stood right in front of the spot it was buried.

Sunlight made it out of the Everfree Forest and made his way back to the school. The Cutie Mark Crusaders ran up to him and hugged him with tears in their eyes.

Sunlight was panting but seeing the three girls gave him a relief.

"We were so worried about you, Sunlight"! Scootaloo said.

"Yeah. We thought something terrible happened to you" Sweetie Belle said.

"We thought we wouldn't see you again" Applebloom finished.

"It's alright, girls. But I need to speak with my mother. There's something in the forest that I've discovered and I need answers to" Sunlight replied.

"Are you sure? You looked pretty washed up. You sure you don't need to see Zecora to help heal you"? Scootaloo asked.

"I'm sure, girls. I'll be back soon" Sunlight replied as he begins to run off".

The Cutie Mark Crusaders stare at Sunlight as he runs off in the distance with concern in their hearts. Meanwhile at the top of the school, a cloaked figure was standing and watching.

"He looks a lot like the fallen hero...and yet....he will lead us to it." the mystious colt in a cloack said as his eyes glowed yellow. "It's time to send in the puppet".

The colt in the cloak disappears but meanwhile in the borderline between the Everfree Forest, a mysterious pony appears with a cloak of his/her own. The pony looks at the distance with grey eyes and begins to walk towards Ponyville.

"I will bring back the stone, my master" the mysterious pony said. "He will show us the way....and he shall be destroyed".

The scene starts to move away from the pony with the black cloack and into the city of Canterlot. A lot of questions must be answered from here on out and Sunlight knows that his mother, Princess Celestia knows them.

"A Nobody is what's left behind when one gives his heart to darkness. - Xemnas

The Truth

Princess Celestia was minding her own buisness, reading a book named "The Seven Princesses of Heart" when suddenly, her son, Sunlight, barges in with a serious look on his face.

"Mom, we need to talk" Sunlight said.

"What is it, sweetie"? Celestia asks her son.

"I've been...having these....dreams...and visions, latley".

Celestia stands up and walks towards Sunlight and with a confused look on her face.

"What do ya mean"? Celestia asks.

"I keep seeing this colt....he looks a lot like me.....I think his name was......Midnight"? Sunlight replies.

Celestia stands there in shock. Did she just hear what she thought she heard? Only one way to find out.

"Who"? Celestia lies

"Midnight...Midnight Wolf....who is he, really"?

"Son....there's a lot of things in Equestria that even I don't understand. From what I hear......you were once Midnight Wolf...in a previous life".

"Previous life? Mom, what do you mean by that"?

"There's a legend that a long time ago, that this pony was the first to ever walk Equestria. Nobody knew who he was. But legend has it that everytime he died, he would return but as somepony else with rare memories of his previous life".

"Are you saying that...I was once Midnight Wolf"?

"Possibly. But know that you're still my son".

Sunlight stands there in shock of what she told him. Was he really the first pony in equestria that kept on dying? He needs to know more.

"Does that explain...my cutie mark"? He asks.

"In a way. But know that your cutie mark makes you special, no matter what it looks like".

"I.......I need to be alone........need some time to take this in".

Celestia walks up to her son and gently hugs him. Sunlight stood there but soon hugs back and smiles.

"Thanks mom...for telling me the truth" Sunlight said.

"Anything for my son" Celesita replied. "And if you have trouble, talk to Aunt Luna. I'm sure she'll be happy to help".

"I'll keep that in mind".

They depart from their hug and Sunlight walks away to go clear his head.

Later on, Sunlight was standing on his balcony outside his room, looking at the moon and sighs.

"So........am I really Midnight Wolf....or just another one of his wasted lives"? Sunlight said to himself.

Suddenly, he hears a voice call out to him that said "You are so much more than another incarnation, my boy".

Sunlight turned around, startled, to see a mysterious pony in a cloak.

"W-who are you and how did you get in my room" Sunlight asked the dark hooded figure.

"How I got here is of no importance...as for my name......I've been called many names........Ansem..........Xehanort....but you can call me.........Xemnas" the figure knowned as Xemnas anwsered. "My my...you have grown a lot since the last time I saw you".

"W-What are you talking about, Xemnas, or whatever your name is"!?

"You don't remember, don't you?...That's right. You were just a baby when me and your so-called mother fought. Oh, if could accept the real truth".

"STOP PLAYING MIND GAMES WITH ME!!! TELL ME WHY ARE YOU HERE"!!!

"I'm here to tell you the real truth. You're what's called a "nobody". That's what you really are".

"W-what do you mean by a nobody"?

"A nobody is the body and soul of a strong-willed individual who has lost their heart...in your case...Midnight's heart".

"What?....I'm not just another incarnation"?

"Is that what she told you? A pity. I must go now. But know this. We will meet again......may your heart be your guiding key".

"WAIT! I need more answers"!!!

Xemnas disappears into the darkness without a trace. Sunlight stands there in shock. But as soon as he snaps out of it, he runs out of his room with tears in his eyes. What did he just hear?

Sunligt finds himelf at the statue of Midnight Wolf in the rain. He looks down to see his reflection in a puddle, then look back. Tears begin to run down his face as he smashes the puddle with his bare hoofs.

"Is this who I am?....Just another Midnight Wolf"? Sunlight asks himself.

"That's not true" a familiar voice calls out to him from behind. It was Princess Luna. "What are you doing here, it's late. you're mother's worried sick".

"Then why didn't she tell me the truth"?!

"What do you mean"?

"I know everything. I know that I'm a nobody. Xemnas told me"!

"Xemnas?!...how did you-"

"He came to my room, a few hours ago, and explained everything! That's how! Now tell me! WHO AM I"?!

"........you're my nephew. And that's the most important thing of all. You're not Midnight Wolf. You're Sunlight Star".

Sunlight stands there in silance while Luna walks up to him.

"Listen, Nobodies are just monsters that have no hearts. But you're a different Nobody. You have a heart. And you're my adorable little monster".

Sunlight chuckles at that remark and after a few laughs, sunlight hugs his aunt.

"We're all the same. We're both ponies.....Xemnas just doesn't see that".

Sunlight smiles and says "I'll make him see it. I'll be the best nobody in all of Equestria"!

"hehe....oh I bet you will" Luna said as he begins to tickle Sunlight like a little child as Sunlight bursts out laughing.

Out in the distance, Xemnas watches Luna and Sunlight as he removes his hood.

"The best nobody in all of Equestria, huh? This calls for a celebration" He says as he walks away into the shadows of the night.

New Powers

After that talk last night with his mother, Sunlight was more determined to accept who he is. One day, his mohter, Celesita, called him to the library in Canterlot. He did as she told him and once he made it there, he found his mother next to the private section.

"uuuh...why are we here? This is a the restricted section, mom" Sunlight said in concern, wondering why his mother was heading to the restricted section.

"Come, Sunlight. You'll see" Celestia said with a smile.

Sunlight doesn't question and follows Celestia. When they make it to the end of the area, Celestia uses her magic to pull an invisible switch to reveal a dark cave full of old books. Sunlight is shocked.

"Wh...what is this place" Sunlight asked his mother.

"This is the cave of legends. Ubran Equestiran mythology lies within these books" Celestia answered. "I believe that we'll find the answers we need in this cave".

"You really think so"?

"I hope so".

"Then let's get started".

Celestia nods.

A few hours later after searching, Sunlight finds something.

"MOM! COME QUICK"!!! Sunlight shouted.

Celestia runs to his aid to see him holding a red book with a symbol resembling Sunlight's cutie mark and the title called "Twilight".

"I think this is it" Sunlight said with a smile.

"Are you sure you want to read this, son...it could change your life forever" Celestia asked with concern.

"I want to know everything" Sunlight replied with determination on his face.

"Then let's do it".

Sunlight opens up the book and starts reading from it.

Think now for a moment, about your best friend. Someone you couldn't bear to lose. His mind blank slate, Roxas starts counting the days, determined to never forget anything again. He and his friend, Axel go on missions for the Organization. They're soon joined by the group's 14th member. A girl named Xion. Like Roxas, She has no memory of her past. The three have been told they don't have hearts. That they're "Nobodies". And yet, it's strange. They start to realize how much they care for each other.

But before sunlight could read anymore, a buzzing noise goes off in his head as he shouts "GET DOWN" as he pushes his mother out of the way to see a razor sharp, white eel-like dart miss them. Sunlight looks up to see the leader of the nobodies.

"XEMNAS" he says.

"You have learned too much, nobody" Xemnas says.

"So what? My son has the right to know"! Celestia shouted

"A nobody doens't have a right to know anything. We are all empty shells without hearts. We cannot feel emotion...so....why is it that you're an exception, Sunlight Star"?

"It's simple. Cause I DO have a heart, Xemnas! I don't know what kind of darkness that you're hiding, but I plan to bring it to the light"! Sunlight replies.

Xemnas chuckles "Silly child. Then why do you even hate darkness in the first place"?

Sunlight stands there in silance, not knowing what to say.

"Just as I thought....no words...just silance...like a true Nobody" Xemnas says.

"That's enough"! Celestia shouts "Why must you go so far to harm my child"?!

Xemnas chuckles as he says "it's in our nature, your highness.....us nobodies cannot feel sorrow.....no matter what misery befalls the worlds. No matter what you think, what you feel, or how you exist. We are all the same....but that child...holds a prophecy..........and must be destroyed".

Xemnas pulls both of them into a dark room where a bunch of light spots surround them and start shooting at them. Both Sunlight and Celestia sceaming in pain but mostly Celestia. Both of them fall to the ground as Xemnas walks up to them from what looks like a red lightsabor glowing from his hoof.

"There was a prophecy...that a special nobody will rise up and stop a monster with the Infinity Stones.........now it ends. I will purge that light within you....WITH DARKNESS"!

Xemnas swings for the final blow with Sunlight prepared to accept his fate...when suddenly......a purple energy shield forms around Sunlight. Xemnas looks in confusion.

"Hey buddy! Why don't you pick on someone your own size"! a mysterious voice called out to him.

Xemnas turns around to see....Princess Twilight Sparkle to the rescue!

"So...the spider prodigy has returned to save the nobody......how very intruiging" Xemnas says. "You choose to save the life of a nobody?.....why"?

"Cause He's more of a somepony than you'll ever be"! Twilight shouts as she shoots a beam of magic at Xemnas. Xemnas dodges in disbelief that another pony stood in his way from his task. Back with Celestia and Sunlight, Celestia tries to crawl over to his son.

"S.....Sunlight" Celestia said while in pain....".....May your heart be your guiding key"...

Suddenly, a light started to forge around Sunlight. Everyone turns around to see Sunlight begining to transform. Xemnas looks in shock.

"How...can this be"?!

Sunlight stands up but not in pony form. He looks to his......hands to see that he's in some kind of armor....a...nobody armor.

Xemnas stands back as Sunlight forges of what looks like a keyblade.

"What does one transformation matter to a nobody?......I'll be back" Xemnas says as he teleports away.

Sunlight makes is keyblade disapear as he transforms back into his pony self. Both him and Twilight run up to the wounded Celestia as Sunlight says "Mom! Are you gonna be okay"?

"Y-yeah...I'll be fine, Sunlight...I just need a moment" Celestia replies as she tries to stand back up but fails to.

"We need to get her to the hospital right now! She's extremely wounded from the fight"! Twilight said with concern in her voice.

"Agreed! Let's get mother to the hosptial." Sunlight replies.

"Also, two things. One, who are you? and two, Who was that"?!

"My name is Sunlight Star...and...that...was my worst nightmare.....that..was a nobody like me.......that...was Xemnas......".

Xemnas teleports himself inside the castle of the two sisters as he smashes a wall in frustration. "My young nobody...it is time to serve your purpose....Bring Sunlight Star to me"!

To be continued.....
