Emotionless. That's what she is. It's always been like that since birth...but why?

Twilight has always been emotionless. But why? An alternate universe where Twilight was born without emotions, and another war is starting. :ajsmug:

2. In the Dark...

Walking through the woods, Twilight accidentally stumbles upon a hidden hideout. The lights are on, so someone must be in there. Twilight carefully walked to the hideout when the light suddenly went out. Carefully, Twilight walked inside and looked around. Someone had definitely been here right now. She couldn't see anything at the moment, but she knew she was being watched. Suddenly, she felt someone behind her, and quickly turned around. She saw a girl with black hair and dark blue highlights. This person had a unicorn horn and pegasus wings, and was wearing a light blue shirt with overalls over it. "Who are you?" she asked. Twilight didn't answer.

"I SAID WHO ARE YOU?!" The girl was yelling now,clearly angry that Twilight wasn't answering her. Finally, Twilight answered her.

"I am Twilight Sparkle. I didn't mean to enter your hideout without permission, I just wanted to see what was in here."She answered. She felt like she knew who this was... but she couldn't put her finger on it. Slowly, Twilight backed away,trying to find a way out. Of course, the girl noticed and used her magic, which looked like starlight, to trap her.
Suddenly, they hear a loud noise outside the hideout, and everything goes black. Twilight doesn't know what's happening, and neither does the girl next to her. All that they can do at the moment is stand still. Suddenly, they can see again, but when they look outside, everything is destroyed.
"What happened?" the girl asked. Twilight couldn't answer, but she felt like they were in danger.

"We should leave. Now." The girl said.

"But I don't even know you" Twilight responded.

The girl looked annoyed. "I'm Eclipse. Eclipse Shadow. Nice to meet you, Twilight." The girl said. Then she walked down the stairs and looked at Twilight, waiting for her.

"Are you coming or not?" She asked. Twilight went and walked with Eclipse, in the dark, going deeper into the woods.

I'll post more later, and please suggest anything if you want to. Sorry if its short. :twilightsheepish:

3. Stories and New Encounters

Walking through the forest, Twilight and Eclipse talk to each other. During their talk, Twilight tells Eclipse about herself, and how she has no emotions.

"So, you're saying that you're incapable of having emotions? That's so cool!" Eclipse said.

"How come?"

"Well, you can't be scared, or sad, no matter what. Emotions like that cause equines like us to make bad decisions."

Twilight looked at her, realizing that Eclipse was talking from her own experience. She saw pain and sadness in her eyes.

"What happened to you? She asked.

"Hm?"

"You're speaking from your own experience right? What happened to you?"

Eclipse sighed. She didn't like talking about this much.

"Fine. I'll tell you"

10 years ago

Screams. Everyone is screaming. A young Eclipse looks around. There are equines in trouble. Some are already gone. Some are injured.
Eclipse thinks.Where is mom? That's a good question. Where is she? Where is Midnight Shadow. Eclipse is scared and alone.
Midnight Shadow's room
Watching from her room, Midnight Shadow can see everything. She looks at all the suffering. All the damage and destruction. Then she remembers something. Her daughter. Eclipse. Where is she?

"Eclipse!" She calls out. No answer. Midnight Shadow's heart goes faster. Where is her daughter? She looks outside. The raid stopped. She runs outside, looking for her. She looks around, but Eclipse is nowhere to be found. As it turns out, Eclipse ran away during the raid. She was scared. She didn't know what to do. Midnight Shadow thought of something else. She thought that they took her. Who's they? Princess Celestia. Princess Luna.

They took her She thought. Midnight Shadow went back inside, filled with anger and sadness. Her only daughter was gone. She didn't know what to do anymore. So, she did what she thought she should do. Attack.

Now

"So that's what happened. I ran away. When I tried to come back, I couldn't find my way.'

"What happened after that?"

"I found an abandoned cabin. The one that you found, that was it. I stayed there for a long time until now."

They walked in silence for a while. Twilight thought about Eclipse's story. That must have been very sad for such a young girl.

"We should rest here" she said. They were now near a cave, a good place to stay for the night. Eclipse agreed and they both went in. With her magic, Twilight made a light so that they could see. There were animals everywhere. Squirrels, rabbits, mice, etc. They were everywhere.

"Well this is...surprising" Eclipse said. Twilight,with her magic, picked up all the animals but suddenly heard someone yell.

"Put them down!"

They turned to see a girl with pink hair and pegasus wings. She had three pink butterflies on her shoulder, and was wearing a teal dress. She was covered with mud and dirt.

"Who are you?!"

Author's Note

Cliffhanger. I'll make three more chapters soon, so be on the lookout for more! Byeee:heart:

1. Character introductions +origins

Twilight
Twilight was born emotionless. Nobody knows why. They don't care though. Nobody cared about Twilight being emotionless. Because there is something more important going on. The war against Midnight Shadow. It has been a tough and horrible war, with many casualties. The birth of Twilight was puzzling, yes, but not more important than this war. Many ponies have suffered and lost loved ones, including Midnight Shadow herself. Twilight has had to navigate through life by herself since her home was destroyed. Where is she now? You'll just have to wait and see.

Eclipse(oc)
Eclipse is a special girl. Why? Her mother is...Midnight Shadow. The surprising thing is that she is nothing like her mother. The reason for that might be that she went missing during a raid and was only seen after the war... but we'll get back to that later.

Fluttershy
We all know her right? She's shy and kind, but here, in this universe, she's brave, and confident. She isn't afraid of anything. Did we also forget to mention she's rich? Her family owns around 100 different factories. They give her anything she needs, even if she doesn't want it.

Pinkie
Upbeat, funny, and a normal girl. Pinkie comes from a background of cake makers and is currently working at her fathers cake shop, trying to make ends meet. Her part time job is a comedian, but when she meets these three girls her life changes...forever!
