A little Sparkling Blaze
A break and first love
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSparkling's POV
Aunt Scoots let me be absent for 15 days after my fight with Blame...I wonder what has she told moms.I told her to not tell how much I was switching and having seizures but didn't tell her to hide my breakdowns or the fact I haven't been eating at school...Plus aunt Scoots didn't know how Blame's friends treated me or how it affected me having low grades.Am I losing myself slowly?
Right now I was at the only spot in town I could find peace and quiet...The lake,my hair into a loose ponytail,a hoodie and pants on.I look at my reflection and sigh.Where did the real me went?And through that reflection I see someone else coming.Taller than me,not a girls body,but definitely around my age.
I pull my hoodie up.If he was bad he wouldn't recognize me and I would run if he was good I'd pull it down and stick around.
Shadow's POV
Today had been a pretty normal day. Cadence and me had came to see Twilight. But after awhile it had turned into "girl time". Don't get me wrong I love my sister and Twilight but I'm not going to be there for that. So I decided to leave.
Cadence made sure I had a light weight jacket because it was starting to get chilly.
After wondering around town for awhile I was getting ready to go back to Twilight's but decided to go by the lake. I don't know why, but it just felt like I should. When I get there it's pretty much like I expected it would be. Quiet, peaceful and to be honest a little boring. That when I see a girl standing by the water. At least I think it's a girl, they look like they're trying to hide everything. I begin to walk over and she must have seen me because she pulls her hood tighter. Part of me wonders if I should leave her alone, but as soon as I think that it feels like I should go see if she's alright. Just a feeling I have. So I walked over and stood beside but not close.
"Hi, couldn't help but notice you standing there." I said to her. "If it's none of my business just tell me, but you alright?"
Sparkling's POV
I turn my head to look at him,and when my glare locks into his glare I felt I should tell him everything,certainty in his eyes that we would be together...Is that what mom meant by saying a siren knows she's in love?
I pull my hoodie down revealing my face and hair,and probably my pedant too.
"I-I..."I say grabing a curl from my hair and playing with it so I don't look at him,I was nervous and not sure of who I was.But I without control start crying.I wasn't ok.I tried to hide my face as my voice came out a whisper."I'm not...But why am I telling this to you?You don't know me,I don't know you so why do I feel I can trust you?"
Shadow's POV
After I talk to her for a second I thought she might run, but instead she pulled her hood down. She's pretty like really pretty. Why would she want to hide herself like that? That's when I notice the pendant she has. She must be one of the sirens Twilight told us about. If people blame her for what they did like people blame me for what dad did it makes sense she begins to answer me but she starts crying.
Without thinking I closed the distance between the two of us and pulled her into hug. Why am I doing this? I don't even know her. "What's wrong? I know I don't really know you, but maybe I can help."
Sparkling's POV
I feel the tears running down my cheeks as I slowly started to tell everything to that boy while still in his arms."So yeah...My father,who killed my best friend,my uncle,raped mom two times,and kidnapped me wants me dead...My best friend died,my other best friend hates me thinks it's my fault his twin died and he's not wrong...And I feel like I don't even know who I am.I came to this place for some peace and quiet,I'll probably be here for the next 15 days,here is my safe place and I'm on an early break from school now due to the principal asking my moms to keep me home.Anyways I told you all of this but not my name...I'm Sparkling Blaze Dash."
Shadow's POV
I wasn't sure what I was expecting but it wasn't that. I had just got her whole lifestory and just damn. This girl has been through more then most people could imagine. I don't know why she felt she could tell me all of this but it felt good that she trusted me. After everything she's been through I could only imagine that she doesn't trust very many people. But she's told me everything all at once and I'm trying to process everything.
"I..well I..." I don't know what to say to her. What could I say to her? "I'm Shadow Dancer." I told her. "It's nice to meet you, just wish it was under better circumstances. I know I can't really fix any of that, but maybe I can help take your mind off of it? I have the next couple weeks off from school too. And if you don't mind, maybe we can hang out?"
Sparkling's POV
"It'd be nice to have someone to hangout with me...But mom wouldn't be very happy if she knew it was a guy."I see someone coming towards us.I can't make out who it was due to my vision still being blurry from all the crying.
But when I see it's getting dark I could make out it was probably one of my moms or Forced Entry.
When I see by the height I could figure out it was mom Dash.
"Hey hope I didn't interrupt anything but your mom is really worried about you at home Sparkling."She then saw Shadow."Hey I know you,Candace's brother Shadow right?Tell your sister me and my wife had been waiting for her visit forever and she can pop up whenever she wants after saving Sparkling from being kidnapped."
Shadow's POV
Me and Sparkling were making a plan to hang out the next day when someone walked over to us. Sparkling tensed up at first until she realized who it was.
Rainbow Dash she was one of Twilight's friends. Candace told me she saved a girl one time but I didn't realize it was Sparking.
"I'll tell her when I see her." I told Rainbow Dash. "In fact how about we come over tomorrow?"
"That sounds great to me. But I'll warn you now Aria won't like it."
"Then maybe I shouldn't..." I started but Dash cut me off.
"No you should. Just her other mom isn't going to like it at first."
"Ok we'll be by tomorrow."
"Sounds great. But that means you'll have to let her go."
That's when realized I had been holding Sparkling in my arms the whole time.Then I let her go.
Sparkling's POV
Me and Shadow let each other go,but I didn't want to let him go.So I pulled him into another hug before going home."Thanks for listening to me vent it meant a lot to me."
I then let go and smile at him,I didn't wanna go we just started talking and he seemed nice but I would see him tomorrow.
"Sparkling I know you don't wanna go but you'll see each other tomorrow and we have to go before Forced finds us.It's really dark and my super speed doesn't give me super vision.Plus your super speed is still slower when you are like this emotionally and your mom has already called me 3 times.Not wanting to be a party pooper but we really don't need Ari mad at us today,the twins are already driving her crazy and if she gets mad at us well you know your mom."
"You're right mom Dash."I look at Shadow now looking well at him he is handsome."See you tomorrow?"
Shadow's POV
We break the hug but I didn't want to. I can't explain it it just felt right. Sparkling must have felt the same because she hugged me this time as she thanked me.
"You're welcome, anytime you need me I'm here for you." Then she smiled at me, and I could tell it wasn't a fake one. Did I do that? Who is this girl? I've never felt like this before. My thoughts are broken by Sparkling asking me if I'll see her tomorrow. "Of course I will." I tell her.
After that they left and I went back to Twilight's.
Rainbow Dash's POV
We went home,the twins were sleeping,Sparkling told me and Aria she was gonna write a song and go to sleep.
I sigh,and sit with Aria,she certainly isn't ready for this.
"Something wrong Dash?You never sigh."
"What if I told you our daughter is in love?"
"What do you mean our daughter is in love?"
"Just what I said. Our daughter is in love."
"There's no way she is. We'd know."
"That why I'm telling you she is, I've seen it."
"Who?"
Now was the part I knew she really wouldn't like. "It's a boy she met at the lake."
"A boy? You know what I said about her dating..."
"Named Shadow." I cut her off."He's Candance's brother.He was comforting her while she was crying,and they didn't want to let each other go,and she had the same look you look at me.He and Candance are coming tomorrow..."
"Well after Candance saving Sparkling I can't tell her to enter and not let her brother enter but still Dash what if he hurts her?"
"Easy we'll end him.I bet that's what you would do too.But for what I see he was completely in love with Sparkling too."
"But if it's that Shadow from the vision that means she's gonna have 10 kids and die."
"Would you rather for her to live and continue unhappy like she is right now?To the point she's not even eating right at home.Do you really wanna deny her the most important thing for a siren?The thing that kept you unhappy for years not having a love?"
She sighed."No..."
I hugged her."We can't protect her forever Ari,so let's just let her be happy."
"But what if you're wrong? She might not be."Aria was desperate at this point. "She looks at him the same way you look at me. And I bet you anything you want it's a love song she's writing."Aria sighed. "It is, it's just like that song I played for you the first time we we're playing music together."
"Then what's the problem?"
"I wasn't expecting this to happen so soon. I was hoping she would be better when she met him. Not everyone can handle being with someone who has what Sparkling does. Do you think he'll stay with her if she gets worse?"
"Aria your niece said she would have 10 kids with him then die,he obviously would stay with her for long for her to have that many children even if she has mutiples."
"And if it's a vision anything I do to stop it makes it worse..."
"Ari she was having one of her breakdowns when she met him,he was comforting her...He's probably someone who would never leave her but if you have any doubts...Him and Candance are coming tomorrow,and while Sparkling and Shadow talk we can ask his sister that raised him how he behaves."
"I know you're probably right. But yeah let's talk to his sister tomorrow."
I put an arm around Aria. "You know most guys aren't like Forced Entry right."
"I know,I know. But it's more then that. She's a siren."
"Yeah and?"
"Well after we got together how long did it take us before we started doing it?"
"Well once we both realized how we felt.... Oh no."
"We're really going to have to talk to them."She then sighed."But it's probably not gonna stop them so brace yourself because we're about to become grandmas very soon."
