How I Found The One Family I Belong To

"Alright you two, lets go." After staying in Appleoosa for about 2 days I decided its time for me to see my cousin. The two of them seems to be excited to finally see their mom again too. After we reached Ponyville the two invited me to stay in their house for a bit. But while I we were walking everyone looked like they're scared of something, I saw a Jewelry store with "Emeralds" in the name, that must be Lariette's shop. But then the two young ponies said that shop is their house, I found out that they really are Lariette's young ones. Zaria knocked on the door and a colt opened it, seems like he didn't know they were gone. "Where did you find them miss?" I was confused because why didn't he know but before I could answer. Zaria told him that their mom sent them away. "I see... I hope you're not a friend of Lariette, are you?" I told him that I'm her cousin instead of just a friend. But then he told me I should be careful at night because she goes for ponies that are close to her, I'm officially confused now. Zen, Lariette's husband lets me stay with them for as long as I like for the night. That night I went out for to clear my head because I'm still confused about why Zen said I should be careful, and why is everypony in town scared. suddenly I heard a voice from behind me. It was Lariette! but there's something wrong with her left eye, she has no eyeball and her eye socket is bleeding. "A-are you alright, Lar?" She took out a knife from the ground and looks like she's about to stab me. "No, I'm not, not until I take your eye at least!!" She tried to stab my left eye but I rolled away. I tried to fly away but she threw the knife into one of my wings and I fell down to the ground. The pain in my wing stops me from getting up. Lariette was right in front of me and almost stabbed my eye, but then Zen came out of the house and called out to her asking her to stop, when Lariette turned around to look at Zen she looked like she was in a lot of pain and disappears into thin air. "You alright miss Laurie?" was the last thing I heard before passing out from the pain in my wing. When I woke up, I found myself lying on a bed, and judging from how the room looks I think I'm at Ponyville's General Hospital. I tried to push myself up but the pain in my wing is still very intense. Someone came into my room, it was Zen. I asked him what's going on in Ponyville so he told me everything. "Lariette was attack while she was in the Everfree Forest, I was too late and she died, now she haunts ponies that used to have a relationship with her. even if they only talked two or tree times, but whenever she sees us, her family, she disappears.". When I asked him if there's a way if we can help Lariette, he told me he doesn't have any idea how we can help Lariette so she wont go

haunting ponies to get their eye to replace her missing one, but he asked me to meet one of Lariette's friend named Shun, Zaria's very close with him apparently, I though I should go and find Shun after they let me out of the hospital. A couple of weeks later they released me from the Hospital, my wing hasn't completely recovered so I shouldn't open them for a few more weeks, guess I'm stuck on the ground then. As I was walking towards town I passed by a school, looks like school is out for today. I saw Zaria coming out of the Schoolhouse so I thought I might as well ask her to go to Shun's house with me. "Hi Miss Laurie! you're finally out of the hospital!" she tackle hugged me out of nowhere, and her horn almost poked my neck. "H-hey careful now." I asked her if she can show me to her friend Shun, I still want to ask him about Lariette. "Oh! Yeah lets go! he's pretty funny I'm sure you'll love him!" Funny huh... guess I'll see when I meet him. As soon as we reached his house I knocked on the door. "I'm coming." As soon as the door opens Zaria jumped towards the Stallion opening the door, however he was already sticking one of his front hoof out. "A-a-ah, No surprise hugs this time." Zaria was looking slightly disappointed. "Awh... Hey Shun can we bake more cookies!?" Shun just gave a shocked reaction to the young filly. "B-but! you just ate like 20 of them yesterday! and how come you're not fat yet!?" Zaria just kept on bugging him asking him to bake cookies with her. "Argh fine.... but tell your mother she owes me money for the ingredients." Zaria tackled hug the Stallion, guess he wasn't so prepared after all. "Yaaay!". We went into his house and Zaria went to the kitchen with Shun, I sat on the sofa waiting for Shun to finish baking cookies. about 30 minutes or so later Shun came into the living room with Zaria carrying the cookies and 3 cups of tea, she put the plate and the cups on the table and sat next to me while Shun sat on a chair on the opposite side. "Now then, who are you?" he asked as he picked up a cup of tea of the table. "My name is Laurie, I used to live in Fillydelphia but I came here to look for Lariette." I picked up one of the cups and takes a sip. "Oh... Lariette huh, well has anyone told you about what happened to her yet?" I nodded. "Zen told me she..... and that's why my wing is like this now, I got attacked by her about a month or so ago." Shun then stared up at the ceiling with a very serious look. "I think I have an idea how to bring her back, I'm going to have to ask Zen whether he agrees to do it or not, though."
