//-------------------------------------------------------// The Adventure Starts -by SnapShot- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// It has to start somewhere //-------------------------------------------------------// It has to start somewhere Why?! Why does everything have to die and make me feel so alone! I cried as i flew out of Cloudsdale heading towards the Everfree forest. Why does my life have to be so terrible!  I screamed to myself. I felt tears streaming down my face as I flew into the forest. A weird storm was forming over my head that night and i never noticed how serious it looked. Rain slowly started to come down making it troublesome to fly, especially since I wasn’t one of the best flyer’s from Cloudsdale, “Why!? Why do I have t-” and that was all I was able to say as a strike of lightning came crashing down on me. I screamed out from the pain in my back and started to fall down to the ground. I was falling. As I came closer to the ground I started to hit every branch in the world from the way it hurt. I heard a snap and just a few seconds later from that sound I felt even worse as I felt the warm blood roll down the side of my left flank and not being able to feel my wing at all. A sudden thought had struck me at the one moment. I was going to die. Die out in the rain, cold, hungry, and alone.... so very alone. With that final thought i hit the ground really hard and fell into a deep sleep. Angel was out in the EverFree Forest helping Fluttershy pick some flowers, for the upcoming picnic with her mare friend Rainbow Dash, after he got all the flowers he could possibly find in the park that was even suitable for the get together. As Angel was going out farther into the EverFree Forest that he somewhat knew, he seen a flashing light and was startled by it. Angel dropped the basket with the flowers in it, as he stared at the direction it came from and then, seen it again. He started to go in the direction the flash was coming from, slowly so that he knew if he should continue or not on this little adventure. A few seconds later the flash went off again, so he started to go towards it faster knowing whatever it was, dangerous or not, his curiosity will make him do it anyways. The light was going off now every few seconds and as he was getting closer to the light he noticed the light wasn’t moving around so it couldn’t possibly be a weird creature from the forest, so it must be something else, a type of equipment or some sort. After a few minutes of him now running towards the light, bumping into everything that got in his way, he came upon an unconscious and bloody pony with a broken camera on the ground a few feet a way that appears to have been ripped off of something, probably the neck of the pony, with the flasher stuck on.   Angel went towards the injured pony, noticing the broken wing on his left side of the body that has dried blood all over it, and cuts all over from head to hoof and being completely covered in blood. Angel noticed under him that there were different sizes of branches from where the pegasus had fallen. He looked up to see a light shining down on them both and suddenly felt a drip of blood hit his cheek. Angel turned around and started to run back to Fluttershy as fast as he could, to show her what he had found in the forest as he completely forgetting everything else. Fluttershy was in her cabin and was singing, practicing for the Summer Sun Celebration, while she was waiting for Angel to come back so he could watch the cabin. Suddenly, there was a knock at her door. She went to go check it out and opened it to find that Pinkie Pie was there holding out an invite in her mouth with a big smile on her face as she said in a muffled voice, “Hey Fluttershy! You’re invited to come to a party for a new pony named Twilight Sparkle! Be at the Library soon alright.” as she gave the invite to Fluttershy. Fluttershy looked away. “I don’t know Pinkie, me and my birds have a lot of practice to get through for tomorrow morning before Princess Celestia arrives for the Celebration.” Pinkie Pie’s smile started to go down a little bit but it then went right back, “Okie dokie lokie! Hope you find some time Fluttershy! I’ll save you some cake though!” she said as she turned around and started to hop away when Angel came running out of the undergrowth panting hard from the run. He bumped into Pinkie Pie and went straight to Fluttershy trying to demonstrate to her about the injured pony. Pinkie Pie came over after she realized what had hit her and quickly forgetting what had happened and smiled. “Ooh! I love guessing games! Is it a.......Pink Flamingo? Or a Dragon, no no that can’t be it umm....OH! A cupcake!!” Angel smacked Pinkie Pie’s face and looked at Fluttershy for her to try and figure out what he is talking about. He laid on the ground closing his eyes trying to look like the unconscious pony. Fluttershy watched him and says,”Are you tired Angel? Maybe you should go and take a nap.” Angel shook his head and used his little arms to act like he had wings and then brings in his left arm to show that it got hurt and started to go down and crash. Fluttershy watches him and thinks hard, “Um, is it a kite?” Suddenly Angel smacks her face and points towards the woods as he started to go back in, waving for them to follow him completely giving up trying to explain. “Oh....umm... you want me to follow you? Alright...if that’s what you want...” She said faintly as she started to fly into the undergrowth slowly, when Pinkie Pie popped right in front of her face. “Hey! Can I come with you?” Pinkie Pie said loudly startling Fluttershy. Fluttershy screamed loudly and fell backwards, wings clenched tightly to her, breathing really hard staring at Pinkie. “Oops..I’m sorry Fluttershy i didn’t mean to scare you.” Fluttershy started to calm down and looked at Pinkie, “Oh, its fine Pinkie.. lets just go see what Angel wants.” As Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy was running behind Angel they started to see a very little light in the far distance and Pinkie jumped and gasped, “SHINY!!” she yelled and just ran as fast as she could to get to the light and Fluttershy jumped and tried to catch up. “Pinkie! Wait!” as she said in a small voice almost inaudible to Angel who was right in front of her. Fluttershy closed her eyes and started to talk to herself, trying to calm herself down, as she was approaching the light. Pinkie Pie suddenly yells and makes Fluttershy jump and quickly gets to Pinkie Pie, “Pinkie Pie. What’s wrong?” as she didn’t see what Pinkie Pie yelled at. “It’s a little lonely wonely pony. I wonder what he’s doing out here and not in town getting ready for the party.” Pinkie said in a sad voice and as Fluttershy came up to Pinkie to see what she was talking about, Pinkie Pie said, “Then again i never seen this pony. I know almost everypony in town...hey wait! He has an injured wing!” as she looked at the crooked wing. Fluttershy gasped, “We have to get him back to town but.....but...umm.....oh Fluttershy you can do this...” as she whispered to herself trying to get enough courage as possible to do what she knew was right. Pinkie Pie started to giggle, “What are you doing Fluttershy?” as she had the injured pony on her back, ready to go back to town, “We have to get this silly willy back to town.” she giggled and started to walk away with the stallion on her back. Fluttershy walked behind her watching the injured stallion making sure he didn’t fall. As Pinkie Pie walked into the hospital doors with Fluttershy following her close behind, the medical pony’s rushed right over to get the stallion off Pinkie Pie’s back without saying a word to them and rushed him back to the ER. Fluttershy sat down on a chair and took a big sigh, relieved that she was out of the forest and into an area where she doesn't have to be so afraid. Pinkie Pie came hopping over now and sat down right next to her and started to hum and sing and do...well everything Pinkie normally does. A little while later the head nurse walked over to them and spoke to them in a calm voice, “So where did you too find him at? We’ve got records of everypony in town but we don’t have anything for him.” Pinkie Pie looked at her and smiled as she said, “We found him in the EverFree forest on top of some branches and stuff.” Fluttershy nodded, “We only found him because of Angel showed him to us.” The bell behind her started to go off indicating it was the time for her practice with the bird’s in the park. “Oh no! I’m late. I will have to talk to you about this at the party tonight at the Library for that Twilight Sparkle you met Pinkie. Tell me what happened alright.” as she ran out of the door to go to the park. “Okie dokie lokie!” Pinkie said as she turned back to the nurse and seen the doctor was coming out. “He’ll be alright. Nothing too severe but that wing is really screwed up. Looks like someone was trying to kill him by the way its broke. Also there’s this burn mark on his back that makes me wonder what actually did happen. Also what I'm finding weird is is that he doesn't have a cutie mark on his flank so what ever happened to him, it isn’t good at all, but he’s still unconscious at the moment but if you want Pinkie Pie you can go see him.” “Okie dokie lokie!” she said as she hopped away towards the stallions room. Everything was hurting, every muscle, every bone, every feeling I felt in my body felt broken or dead, could that be it? I could be dead but now, for some reason, feel all this pain and suffering I had to live with in my life? No it couldn’t be that, not at all. It was just pure terror for me as I had to open my eyes, slowly trying to make out what was around me. I am alive after all but I can’t see. Its just fuzzy, thats really all I can see, it was nothing but fuzz all around me and every little sound that I heard was so far away. I here a very faint beeping, what sound’s like some sort of  a machine, and now this pink blob appears above me and had her body pressed up against me, and I felt a weird sensation even tho I didn’t know what she was but I also thought that there were hooves on my abdomen as the pink thing tried to talk to me. I closed my eyes for a second or two and opened them up to see that the pink animal came into focus better than before and I jumped as I recognized that it was a pony. I was able to choke out painfully, “W-where am I? W-who are you..? Last possible thing I remember was falling out of the sky with my dad’s favorite, most expensive, camera was in my hands try-....” he stopped short as the pink creature laughed. “You mean ‘camera was in my hooves’ don't you?” she said as she turned to looked at my lunch tray, “Ooh! Cupcakes!” she rushed over and started to eat all the food on my tray that was just brought in. I was confused, “Hooves? I don’t have...” and I was surprised now because she was right, “..hooves...b-but...hey! Stop eating my food!” Pinkie Pie laughed, snorted a little bit and burped, “That was good! Well to answer your questions. I’m Pinkie Pie and this is Equestria and that camera thingy is in the forest, but probably not where we found you.” she said a little bit sad that she forgot the camera. “Pinkie Pie....huh.....alright Pinkie, thanks but now here’s the new problem... I don’t know who I am, or where you're talking about when you say forest...I’m so confused right now.!” As I was about to get up and grab my head in frustration as pain from the wing hit me and i had to let out a small grown, “Ahhh! that hurts!” I looked back and seen the wings. “W-what happened to these.....wing’s?” “You fell in the forest, the Everfree forest, and I found you and brought you here with Fluttershy. Ohh! Speaking of Fluttershy I have to go get the party ready!” She said as she rushed out of the room. “Well....i guess I’m not invited then..” he said as he sighed and looked at his tray of food  and looked out the window and fell asleep. I woke up when the nurse came in that morning and said as she opened the curtains for me to see out of them, “Today is the 1000th time the princess will turn Night into Day. Do you have a nice view...umm...Mr....” I sighed and shook my head, “I don’t know what my name is but thanks....I guess...” I said and yawned. I looked out the window and looked up at the stars close in on the moon and said in a small whisper, “I’m confused on who I am....I’m hungry.....and I'm in pain.......what can possibly make this worse than how it is right now?” With that he seen something inside of the moon disappear. I suddenly heard thunder crackle down and winced as pain came across my entire body and hearing faint screaming coming from a far distance. “What the heck was that?” The nurse came in, “Nightmare moon! She has returned and she has just plagued us in eternal darkness!” I looked at her confused, “Nightmare moon? Eternal darkness? What are you even talking about?” The nurse shook her head, “J-just don't worry about it alright....you’ll be safe here in hospital. Just...umm.....take a nap alright?” I still had a puzzled look on my face from what she’s saying, “Um......alright then. That’s a great idea actually...I’m still tired from all of this.” I yawned and started to go down towards the pillow hitting it softly and instantly, falling asleep on the uncomfortable bed. There was a giant crash outside of my hospital room and I jumped up and looked around, scared, “What was that!! More thunder!?” The nurse came into the room and settled me back down into my bed, “Don’t worry, I just accidently dropped some pans in the hallway. Nothing to fear alright.” she said with a big smile on her face. Suddenly her expression changed as she seen light coming from behind the closed curtains. “I-is that..... Light?!” I turned my head and smiled, “That is light! The Sun’s back then! I’m guessing that whole eternal darkness thing was a big hoax then huh.” She laughed a bit, “I heard 6 pony’s stopped her and her evil ways. Enough of that tho do you need anything before I go?” “Not really I think I’m ok..”he takes a big yawn before continuing, “I’m just a bit tired but I’m ok.” he said as his stomach started to growl. “Can you please bring up some food though if you wouldn’t mind. That Pinkie Pie pony yesterday ate all my supper....” “Don’t worry about it alright we’ll get you some nice hot food.” She says as she goes to the window’s, “let me open these up so you can see the sunrise first!” and as she pulled them back there was a gray pegasus pony coming right for the window at a decent speed, hitting her face on it hard. “Oh my! Ditsy Doo! Are you alright?!” “Yea I’m alright.” she said as she got herself off the window and started to fly in a different direction, “Just trying to get back home is all.” “Alright Ditsy be careful and don’t break...” There was a big crash from across the street, “....anything....” I looked at the nurse, “Who was that?” The nurse laughed and said, “Oh that was just Ditsy Doo....” I nodded and looked out the window , “How much longer do you think I will have to stay here till I'm allowed to go and...is there any place or way I can find out what my name is here in this town of yours?” The nurse sighed, “Well we have to wait till you can walk and do all other normal functions.....thats all up to you on how much you wanna work alright? About the name thing...I’m not really sure to be honest.” I looked right at her and nodded, “Well lets get started with it then. Right now.” //-------------------------------------------------------// Trying to find yourself //-------------------------------------------------------// Trying to find yourself I was having the worst dream ever. I imagined I was falling, no wings, not even a being from Equestria, but instead a weird being. I was falling. No way to stop myself.  I was coming closer to the ground, only a matter of time till I hit it. I was screaming, trying to find someway to stop myself from the fall. When I woke up, screaming and flailing around in pure terror. “AHHH!!” The nurse’s had to come in and try to calm me down. They noticed these dreams were happening more frequently now than when I first was admitted into the hospital, and so did I. I felt warm hugs and comforting words as they were trying to calm me down from the terrible experience that I had just encountered, shaking as they held me tightly, and then it hit me, what was I when I was falling? I wasn’t a pony, I know what those strange creature are but...I just can’t name them. A few days later from that last nightmare I woke up from the sun from the window on my left side. I squinted and was trying to adjust to the bright sunlight as I wondered how it got open. I just wanted to sleep! All the exercises I had to do were so painful i just wanted some rest, so they kept the curtains closed all the time. Why are the windows open? I thought but after that question came into my mind, the doctor walked in with a big smile. “Congratulations! It’s time for you to finally go out into the world and fly!” I couldn’t believe what I had just heard. It is finally time for me to leave? I feel worse than what I did when I first was admitted into the hospital so is it even right to have me leave? “Are you sure doc? I mean....I still feel tired and sore....” The doctor laughed and walked over to me and said, “Oh you’re only feeling that way since we still have all these wrappings over your body nice and tight. Here...” he stated as he started to undo the wrappings that were on my body. All the pressuse that was on my body was being released. I looked down at my body and was amazed that nothing was wrong with it at. “Wow...before I felt like I had a giant gash in my stomach, but now.....wow...” The doctor laughed and kept only the wrap that was on my wings. Puzzled I asked, “Why not take those off?” “Because they hasn’t fully healed yet. Don’t worry though, in a week come back in and we’ll do a follow up and check to see if we can take them off alright? Oh and make sure that you don't get smacked around or anything. You had a bit of a concussion when Pinkie Pie brought you in here.” “Alright...wait....who’s Pinkie Pie?” I asked in a questioning tone. The doctor laughed and forgot the last part of what i said and helped me into the wheelchair. He starts to write something on a little piece of paper and put it somewhere on my body, what felt like a hole or some sort “Alright, there’s the paper that tells about the follow up date, I put it in your pocket so you won't lose it. Well I hope you have a wonderful day.” “Wait, Doctor, where do I go to find out what my name is?”, I said in a worried tone. “Truthfully, I really don’t know. We normally call you by what your parents want but alas.... we can’t locate your family. Maybe they were from Cloudsdale but since we don’t know what there names are or even if they are from there, we can’t decide. Don’t worry though you’ll figure it out soon enough.” And with that last comment, the doctor or me both didn’t say another word as we went down to the ground floor and out the door. I got up from the wheelchair and onto my hooves as I looked around for a bit and tried to see if anything, just anything, looked slightly familiar to me but alas, nothing did and I sighed slightly and started to walk away from the hospital. I was still looking around trying to recognize anypony that came to visit me or the other pony in the room. Now that I’m thinking about it, I didn’t know anything about the other pony that was there in the hospital with me. Ehh just forget about it, nothing to worry about. I was suddenly interrupted when I felt a rumble inside of my stomach and I chuckled just a  bit, “Guess I’m hungry....but.....I’m completely bro-” That was the only thing I was able to say as I was hit by a strong force. As I laid there, in a daze from the sudden hit I realized that all I could hear was a soft and long beep. My left wing that was under me was in extreme pain yet that wasn’t even comparable to the pain on my right side that I was hit on. I seen a pony’s head hover over me as he was trying to talk to me. I couldn’t hear him. All I knew was that he was just moving his mouth around. He soon gave up on that and decided to lift me off of the ground and onto his back. At least he didn’t put me on either of my sides so now there is less pressure there, so I sighed in relief. He heard that, turning his head he tried to talk to me again.Nothing, that is all I can say about that conversation is that i couldn’t hear him, so I shook my head and tried to tell him I can’t hear what he’s saying. He had a little frown come onto his face as he understood. I am “fragile”, thats what the doctor said anyways, so it makes a bit of sense to me know that I am not able to hear from that hit, supposedly when that pink pony found me in that forest they concluded it was a concussion so i can’t argue from that. So as he took me along, I noticed that we went by a store that looked like it had a cookie roof or something. I say to myself as I read the sign and it said Sugar Cube Corner. Mental note: Go there sometime soon, the smells are delicious! We went around another corner and up to the first door to the right. It was a little house. The pony walked up and looked under the pad to find the key.  He pulled it out and opened the door and carried me in. I was astonished as I seen many different baked goods all over. The stallion dropped me off of his back and for the first time I was able to get a good look at him. He had a light blue coat with red hair, a ginger color so to speak. He was strong, I knew this because of the huge muscles on his body but the fact that he was able to carry me was amazing, well you know since I am a bit plump from being in the hospital for so long. I kept examining him and noticed the Lollipop cutie mark on his flank. He had purple eyes that were just way too dark to be a normal stallion. He notices that I was looking in his direction and he looked back at me trying to see if he did hurt me in any other way. He looked satisfied and ran right into the kitchen. I was surprised by one thing, the sudden ‘Bang!’ that came from the kitchen. I coughed a bit to see if what i thought was true, and I was right! I can hear again! I heard an oven slamming and the fridge open. I had such a big smile over my face as I was overjoyed to hear things again, but also the smells that came from the kitchen were heavenly. He quickly ran right back in with two plates of delicious smelling, good looking food. I started to drool just from the smell alone before he even dropped the plate onto my lap and I looked at it. It was a daffodil sandwich and had fried hay fries on the side. I smiled since i haven't had anything like this before, well all that I can remember of it at least. I picked it up and took a bite of it and right after that first bite, well lets just say I sorta went crazy. Before I knew it everything on my plate was gone and i was just about to start taking bites of the actual plate when I heard the light blue stallion laugh. “Wow! Calm down! Here eat mine.” He says as he holds out his non-eatin sandwich at me. I stared at it. “Really? You want me to eat your sandwich?” He laughed and smiled, “So you can hear me now, thats good, but yea go ahead and eat it. I’m not hungry anyways.” I take the sandwich out of his hoofs and start to eat it, slower than the first one, wondering why he was being so nice to me. “Thanks. This is......a really nice house you have here umm.....Mr......” “I’m Sugar Rush!” he said now starting to bounce off the walls. “Who are you?!” “I’m not really....sure who I am.” I said, “I can’t remember anything.” Rush just stopped there dead in his tracks, “Wait....you mean....you can't remember anything?” “I can remember just a few things...I was just taken out of the hospital and before I was there all I knew was that I had a camera. Thats it. Nothing about my past or my name. I don't even have a home....” Sugar Rush instantly went right into my face staring right into my eyes, “That must be terrible!! Not being able to remember anything except for that little bit!! I have to help!” Right after he said that the timer went off of from the kitchen. This next part, is hard to say since how fast it went and how scared I was of my new friend. He started to scream. Not like a scream in pain or a scream of fear, but a scream instead, for war. He jumped behind the couch dragging me along and started to talk about something about Zebra’s and how so many pony’s, even his commander, was dead and he wasn’t going to lose me too. He put his hooves to my chest like I was bleeding, calling out for somepony that wasn’t there. This went on for a few more seconds as i felt tears hit my face. Now in his mind I must have died there because he wiped away the tears from his face as he grabbed an umbrella and started to act like it was a spear and threw it at his fine china set. I was surprised by how even a strong hit like that, it was perfectly fine. I then heard him from behind the couch a few minutes later after many more smashing of items, “My fellow soldiers! We have one this fight! We sh-” and with that i heard him stop and was getting his breath back to normal from the little exercsie. I poked my head over the couch and seen him staring at the mess that he just made. He started to laugh. He was now bouncing of into the kitchen to turn the timer off. I slowly came out from behind the couch, scared if he thought that I was an enemy, but that thought went away when he came in with a cake. A delicious cake that had icing over it somehow, even tho it was in the oven a few moments ago. _He laid a piece of the cake in front of me and brought out some tea and poured a coup for us both. With him apparently satisfied with the little setup he just made he sighed and looked at me, “I guess it’s time to explain what you just saw huh?” I only nodded in agreement. It was a few years ago he told me as he was out in the war against the zebra’s for every other pony that couldn’t. Saying how he was one of the few that came out of the worst war we had in ages physically uninjured. He said because of the war however, he still goes into mental fit’s as if the war was still taking place and doing what he did when he was deployed. Well that made sense to me so I took my very first bite of the cake he made as he kept telling the story. He told me that I was his best friend during that fit that died with all the rest of his segment that day. He said it was bad since his friend was about to retire the next day and was able to go back to his family and hope that we will win the war without him on the front lines. I felt terrible listening to the rest of the story for it was so sad. He said that on the last week he was deployed he seen his best friends from his school years die in front of him by some form of smoke, and him not being able to do anything to help them in there time of need. I looked down at the cake when he finished his story with him heading back home to see that his wife and kids were gone to another stallion and he now lived here, alone. I sighed as we both thought for a while after that sad tale. I finally was able to say, “Well...now you're not alone anymore. Well that is if you will let me stay here with you to keep you company, and hey like I said, I don't have a home at the moment.” The smile that came onto his face told me that I said the right thing. “You're welcome to stay here as long as you want! Bad part is we both don't really know anything about you so... what should we call you, so we know you're being talked to?” “Well....how about.....umm....” I said, trying to think. Sugar Rush sat there for a few seconds after i was now just rambling off name’s, and then he gasped as he just realized something. “How about we go to someone that can use a spell on you to see if you can regain any of your memory!” I stared at him, “Wait there’s pony’s here that can do spell’s?” He stared at me dumbfounded, “Um.....yea there called unicorns. You really didn’t.....know about them?” “No.” I said as I was trying to grasp the idea of unicorns, “I have only been around pony’s like me and you. I never been around a......unicorn.....” “Wow...well I know a few unicorn’s around here like the fabulous Rarity down at Carousel Boutique. If she can’t help us I know she can tell us of some other’s around here.” Rush had said. “Well alright then lead the way!” I said smiling to the idea of meeting some new pony’s around town. Sugar Rush came outside of the door of his house and turned towards the direction of the store. He, for some reason, had some sort of scent coming off of him. He had told me to wait outside of the house for him so is that why? To put nasty smelling gunk on? It took him a full ten minutes before he even came out of that house! So is that really a reason why? He had on some fancy clothes as well with the scent and that smell it literally, made me gag. I just had to ask, “What is the god awful scent that is coming from your body?” He said sarcastically, “ Well Mistress Rarity need’s to know that there is some decent pony’s around once and awhile.” He tried to do a stupid sounding accent, probably trying to imitate the more classy ponies in Equestria “I’m just wondering because of that stench is making me gag. Why did you put so much on?” I asked as my eyes were watering. “I didn’t put too much on. I just put on as much as I always do and when she smells this cologne, well, the look in her eye’s tells me she loves the scent.” I just watched him as he said that sentence and it dawned on me what was going on. I started to laugh softly to myself as we were coming closer to the store, now visible from the road. “Oh now I see!” laughing harder. He was getting confused now, “What’s so funny?” “I know exactly why you put so much of that gunk on you, you have some “feelings” for her don't you?” He was now stumbling on his words with the biggest blush of the thought of Rarity, “I-i-i don’t h-have any feelings for her!” I was laughing harder now. “I know you do! It’s written all over your face!” I knew I had him trapped. I laughed even harder, “Don’t worry about it.” I winked at him as we came to the door of the shop, “I won't say anything to her. I swear!” He sighed in relief from the statement as we opened the door to the store and entered the room. Now I knew why Rush was so lovestruck from this unicorn. I stared at her for only a few second’s, but it felt like hour’s as I looked at her perfectly crafted mane and tail, with her luxurious coat from the sunlight. I couldn’t believe that something like her, was possible in this world. “Oooh customers!” she said after she spun around and came over to us. “How may I help you young gentlecolts today?” Rush and I had a difficulty speaking for a bit but I finally found my voice, “I’m wondering Miss Rarity if you could possibly help me out with your magic?” Rarity said, “What type of help do you need with my magic?” I looked over at Rush and said half heartedly, “Well i was wondering....if you could use your magic.....to bring back memory’s.” Rarity stared at me for a bit and said in a guilt full tone, “Well I’m terribly sorry but I don't have that kind of magic. I only have a little bit of magic to help me make clothing” she puts her hoof to her face for a second before she adds on, “..Oooh! But my friend Twilight Sparkle may be able to help! She is, after all, the Element of Magic.” By hearing that, I was overjoyed that I may be able to get some answers for all of my questions. “Now is there anything else I could do to help you fine stallions today?” I looked at Rush and It dawned on me I didn’t have anything on, even though it was common here not to normally wear something, I didn’t feel right. “Well Rush could it be possible if I.....borrow some money to get some clothes?” He couldn’t take his eye’s off of Rarity and said in an agreeing tone, “Sure, don’t worry about it bud...” Drifting off into a little fancy world of who knows what. I looked back at Rarity and smiled, “Well let’s make me some new clothes then! I don’t feel right looking like.....this....” Rarity stared at me for a moment, “You're not from here are you?” “No I’m not.” I said bluntly. Rarity just smiled and brought me over to where she does all the prepping and measurements, “Don’t worry about it. I can make you some new clothes for nothing! Just count it as a treat alright?” I looked at her as she was doing all her work and smiled, “Thanks thats....so nice of you to do!” “Well I am the Element of Generosity after all.” She smiled as she went back to work. “And its the least i can do for a new friend.” I couldn’t believe what she just said, a ‘New Friend’! This day is just getting better as she was now done with my getting the measurements for my chest //-------------------------------------------------------// Finally! Learning somethings. //-------------------------------------------------------// Finally! Learning somethings. PLEASE TELL ME HOW MY STORY'S DOING IN THE COMMENT'S! Also I'm sorry i haven't uploaded this sooner, I am not able to edit this at home to what i believe makes sense since chrome always shuts down and with Christmas Break and me leaving for a week this is the soonest i could upload this Chpt. working on number 4 now and a fair warning, lots of twists ahead  and lots more from the actual show's story and now enough of my rambling time for the story! “Ah” i sighed in relief from not being naked anymore, “This feels much better! Thank you so much Rarity!” “Oh it’s nothing darling. Now don’t forget the directions I told you to get to Twilight’s house alright. It’s not too far from here” “Don’t worry Rarity. I have the directions memorized..... how am I going to get him out of here...” I said as I looked at the unconscious Sugar Rush. Of course  when Rarity was working on my jacket she had dropped some of her stuff and bent down to pick them up right in front of him and well...the rest is really clear what happened then. “Don’t worry. He can stay here till he wakes.” “Rarity you're the best ever! Thank you!” as I had given her a hug and started to head to the door, “I really didn’t want to carry him all the way back home and run all the way to Twilight’s house.” “I understand that feeling.” she started to laugh, “Just don’t worry about him alright. He’ll be safe here tonight.” “Thank you so much! Bye now Miss Rarity!” “Come back soon! I had fun talking to you!” I heard that little bit as I was heading out onto the road to Twilight’s house. Now Rarity proclaims that Twilights the best with magic in all of Equestria, but I wasn’t sure after I heard this, “Come one, come all! Come and witness the amazing magic of the Great and Powerful Trixie!” I stopped and turned around to witness a trailer unfold into a stage with spinning rockets, sparkling stars hanging everywhere and so much more. Then a big puff of smoke came up and this blue pony came out with a smirk grin. I really can’t say much for what she said, and I was confused why I couldn’t, since every time she said anything I was only able to make out faint screeching sounds from her, but somewhere in the crowd i heard this from a yellow earth pony with three apples as her cutie mark, “That’s it! I can’t stand for no more of this!” A little purple dragon yell out, “You show her AJ!” AJ, “Can your magical powers do this?” and with that last statement the yellow pony did some amazing things with a rope that I couldn’t believe, she jumped through it, had it spinning around her from high to low and did so much more I was completely dumbfounded. I guess the crowd was the same way as all they got out was, “Ooh.” AJ stated proudly from her show, “Top that, missy!” Trixie lifted her hat off of her head to expose her horn, “Oh, ye of little talent.” she had a stupid smug look on her face that I just couldn’t stand as she then state’s, “Watch and be amazed at the magic of Trixie!” The rope starts to come up in a pattern of a snake as it came up slowly when suddenly it quickly wrapped around AJ’s hooves making her fall down. AJ makes a little sound before an apple was stuffed into her mouth. Everypony around me except the small group in front was cheering around and laughing at this show. “Imbeciles.” I state as I start to walk away. Wait! Is that Miss Rarity up there in the front? I just couldn’t believe that even she was here. All that I heard in that small moment was this, “There’s no need to go strutting around and showing off like that!” but right after that it was all just a blur as I stared at Rarity. The next thing that after all the ponies were cheering for what the pegasus did I was able to snap out of the little trance I was in. The pegasus said with the cheering, “They don’t call me ‘Rainbow’ and ‘Dash’ for nothing.” I looked up to look at that pegasus but right when I did, all I seen was a rainbow spinning around and around being lifted up into the air with it moving faster than a lighting bolt. I snickered a bit when the pegasus was done spinning around in that colorful tornado as she stated, “I think I’m gonna be sick.” Well I really didn’t have a good seat but all I overheard was a crack of thunder and a yelp, some talking amongst the crowd and Trixie, and then I heard the pegasus and AJ talking up there about a magic duel. I was watching intently when I heard Rarity’s voice telling them that she took the hint to try and beat the blue unicorn. Rarity, lovely lovely Rarity, walked up onto the stage and suddenly BAM! She transforms with the most beautiful dress on that I have ever seen. I was staring in pure amazement, but that look on that blue unicorn well, it was downright evil. The blue unicorn’s horn lit up and a flash happened at where Rarity was standing and I looked away from the light so I  wouldn't be blinded but after what Trixie’s magic did to Rarity lets just say that I wish I was blinded. The worst thing you could possibly do to a fashionista like her is to mess with one thing, her hair. Her hair was a green mess that looked to me like some sort of moss that grows on trees with what I believed was twigs and a birds nest in her hair. Everyone was disgusted by what Trixie did to Rarity’s hair, and no one at all wanted to tell Rarity what Trixie did to her. Yet one little purple dragon ruined the whole “don’t tell her about her hair” thing. The purple dragon said, “It’s green.” as AJ, the rainbow colored pegasus and a purple unicorn glared at him he say’s, “What?” “That’s it I'm leaving from this depressing site.” I said as I started to walk away from the crowd. I was walking for a bit down that road, now completely lost from the directions Rarity gave me, “I wonder if I could just find that unicorns home by myself....lets see.” as I had started to look around completely confused about the directions and where I’m at when I seen something I wasn’t expecting, a tree, but not just any tree but in fact a tree home and a purple unicorn had ran right into house at that moment. I stared at the house for a bit. That seems like the description of the house that Rarity was talking about. I walked towards it wondering if the unicorn in the house would mind company but the way she looked running into the house, I wasn’t so sure if I should. I walked towards the house just trying to imagine why the unicorn ran in the way she did. Should I not bother to ask what’s wrong? Well even if I do ask I need help anyways...I can ask her for help...hmm....I’ll leave the “what’s wrong with you” question out..... I kept thinking about this when my hoof came up and knocked on the door softly, but apparently she heard the soft thump and started to say, “Well hi Flutter-” when she noticed it wasn’t the pony she thought it was. “Hi, who are you?” I cleared my throat and smiled kinda shyly and said, “Well....I’m not really sure how I can answer that if I really don’t know who I am. I’m only wondering if you know where I can find a pony named,” I looked at the side of my hoof and started, “umm ‘Twilight.... Sprinkle.” She laughed, “Well I would guess that should say ‘Sparkle’ but thats funny you ran into me. I'm Twilight Sparkle.” I laughed a bit, “Well I had some directions from Rarity down the road there and I kinda got lost with that show that was going on. She told me that she couldn’t do a spell that I was asking for and she mentioned you saying you're the best with magic. Is that correct?” Twilight smiled and blushed as nodded her head, “Yea I know a few spell’s. What type of magic spell were you looking for by chance?” “Well like how I said earlier I can’t really remember anything about my past. I was only wondering if you knew a spell to help jog the memory.” I said with a straight face. Her smiled faded, “That kind of spell is really advanced, I really don’t know if the spell will hone in on one memory or jog some of it. It could give you the answers you want or some terrible incident that you never wanted to remember. Do you understand what I'm saying?” I nodded my head slowly, “I think I do, so what you’re saying is that if you use the spell, you won’t be able to give me my whole memory back and that the memory that will come back is going to be something completely random, is that it?” She nodded, “Yes. That is exactly it. Now do you still want me to use the spell to jog your memory? It can be really dangerous as it could completely ruin your life.” I nodded, “Yes, please. I want to remember something from my past. My life now is just trying to remember who I am. So its completely fine with me.” She nodded, “Well, come into my house and we will get ready to do the spell. I’m sorry if the spell does hurt you in anyway.” I had a little smirk on my face, “Don’t worry about it alright.” I walked into the house slowly not trying to show how scared I really was. I could be injured from this spell? I know I wanna learn who I am but still. I sat down on the wood floor right in the middle of what looks to be a library. Twilight went up the stairs up to the next floor. I sat there patiently waiting when the door opened and the purple dragon from earlier walked in, “Twilight! I’m back!” he yelled up before he even looked at me. He eyed me for a bit, “So.... why are you here?” he said bluntly. I cleared my throat, “I’m here to have Twilight do a spell on me to try and jog my memory so I can remember my past.” He nodded and had a small smile on now, “Alright well I’m Spike. Twilight’s assistant.” I smiled, “Assistant huh. That’s pretty cool.” Twilight started to come back down the stairs with a big book hovering in front of her with a purple aura around it. “I found the book that the spell is in. Oh Spike your back,” she said as she probably wasn’t even paying attention to his yells earlier. “can you go and give me a bucket of water and some chalk?” Spike looked at Twilight, “Wait you're doing that spell? Twilight you know how dangerous that is to you and....him.” She nodded and said in a nervous tone, “Don’t worry Spike I have been practicing a lot with the forming of this spell lately. I believe I have what it takes to do it.” “Well alright then Twilight I won’t try and convince you of doing the other spell but you know, one little mess up and you both can well....explode.” She sighed, “Yes Spike I know the consequences of doing this spell but it is needed for this kind of memory spell.” I looked at her still stunned from the word ‘explode’ but I only nodded, “Twilight. I trust you from the way Rarity described you and from the fact you're making sure about all the precautions you're doing for this, well it’s reassuring to me. Thank you.” Twilight smiled, “See Spike nothing to worry about.” she said with a smile for reassurance, “Now Spike, where’s that chalk at?” He ran into the kitchen to get the supply’s she asked for. I sat there, patiently looking around the room, “So...if this goes really well...will we be counted as ‘friends’?” She looked over there and nodded, “Of course we could be friends.” I sighed in relief.  That’s good to have somepony like her to be a friend...  she started to draw a circle big enough for what looks like two pony’s can fit. Is that circle part of the spell?  After she was done putting the circle down she was then putting down lines in weird patterns as she kept big enough spots for us both to stand at with a small circle in the middle. She placed the bucket on the inside of it and looked over at me, “There are many different ways to do this spell, but this has been the best way for me to do it. Walk into the circle to your spot t and stand there but please do be careful, if you touch anyone of those lines you may accidentally mess up the line, the spell could completely backfire on us” I was nervous as anypony would have been, if just barely touching one of those well crafted lines the spell could backfire. It would have been a bit more reassuring if I could have used my wings, but then I would have to worry about landing and maybe the wind current that came off my wings but that stupid injury has left me crippled to the ground. “A-alright. Here I go.” as I started to walk towards the design carefully, not trying to touch it at all. “Almost there...” I said taking the final step into my spot. Twilight nodded her head, “Alright are you ready? If so put your hooves in the bucket and close your eyes and stay still.” as she said that she put her own hooves in the water. I slowly picked mine up and put them in the nice warm water feeling, and getting relaxed and calm from the temperature as I closed my eyes. “Alright I’m going to start the spell.” There was darkness, thats all Twilight was able to see inside of his memory’s, but after a few seconds of the non-stop darkness, there was light. Light that showed her the way to go to help her new friend get to his memories and feelings and to try and answer all of his questions. “Alright now here’s the door.....now where the heck is he at?” she said as she was looking around for him. She seen him in the distance and sighed in relief as he approached from her left and she knew the most difficult part of the spell was completed. As he approached she smiled at him, “Hey! I found the door that holds your memories. Now all you have to do is open the door and walk through it. Now remember that this is just going to be a dream and you won't be able to control what's going on, but you will feel like you're there. Do you understand?” “Yes I understand.” he said as he went to the door. “Well here we go!” “Ok.” I said as I held my eyes shut. I was surprised with what was going on. It was first dark then I witnessed what happened that day as I was going back through the memory’s that I knew. Then it came to a door and I seen Twilight right in front of the massive thing. “Alright this spell can only show you a few things alright. I have no clue what you will remember or what will happen to you with the memories that will come back.” she seen me nod my head to show her I understand what she is talking about. Her horn started to glow a bright purple as the door started to open and a bright light shown at them. She was sent to a bright yellow room  where she seen many different door’s to lead to different feeling’s of her new friend. “Why did the door bring me here and not with him like normal?” She looked around as she heard an echoey voice that sounded like her new friend. He sounded like he was freaking out and completely terrified. “Don’t worry! You won’t get hurt!” She looked at all of the different door’s but spotted one that sparked her interest a bit. Love. That’s all that the door had said on it’s little sign above the door. The only reason why she had any interest to look at this door is because when she first seen him, she couldn’t explain it but she just, had an instant liking to him as she looked into his green eye’s. “This is just weird......I know it’s short notice to have these types of feelings for a new friend that i just met but......Gah! I don’t know!” , she looked at the door and slowly opened it up and was surprised what she had saw. It was an image of her. Not only here though but of food and other thing’s, including a camera that looked really old, but the only thing that she cared about was the image of her in his mind. “H-how......” was all that she was able to get out of her throat. She quickly closed the door to the image of her and just sat there quietly, trying to get a grasp on what she just saw, “Is this what they mean by......’L-love at first sight?’ That’s it I’m going to get out of this part......but I’m going to keep his dream going as long as I possibly can......” and with that she got out of the dream state and back to reality. “Alright I’m going to start the spell.” is the last thing that she had said before we got into the spell It was a dark and desolate area where I ended up at, but after a little while of waiting it brightened up and I was able to see Twilight. I smiled and walked towards her  “Hey! Here’s the door that holds your memories. Now all you have to do is open the door and walk through it. I have to follow you though to keep the spell in motion. Now remember that this is just going to be a dream and you won't be able to control what's going on, but you will feel like you're actually there. Do you understand?” “Yes I understand.” I said as I went to the door. “Well here we go!” “Ok.” I was falling. I wasn’t a pony anymore and I wasn’t having that bad dream. This was real, and I was in life or death situation. “Help me!! Help!!” I was terrified since I knew I was going to die. I heard through my mind,’Don’t worry! You won’t get hurt!” I felt a bit more comfortable by this voice. I looked down at my hooves, but they were not hooves but hands. I couldn’t believe what was on my hands. Blood. Blood all over my hands and arms and even part of my shirt. I smelt something that smelt like there was burning, which i then realized was my hair. In the memory i turned over to look up at the sky and I seen a plane completely on fire coming down at a more gradual angle than what I was going at. I turned back over and closed my eye’s expecting for the impact that was soon going to come over me, when I felt this cool mist come all over me as I fell through a puffy cloud. I opened my eyes to only be surprised that I was now floating in mid-air, but wait....i wasnt floating, but I am actually flying. I looked up to see the brand new wing’s that was now evident on my back. I was in total shock and all I could get out was, “Wow.” I started to go slowly, learning how to fly rather quickly. I was having a blast! Feeling the wind in my face and going through all the clouds was amazing. I flew around in circles like a little toy airplane that you would get at a store. I kept flying closing my eyes to feel the cool breeze in my face when I ran into a very fluffy and well put together cloud . I pulled myself off of the cloud and looked at the cloud. The cloud looked like a house of some sort. I went to the side of the cloud and now that looked like the front of the home and then I seen something that I couldn’t believe. It was an entire city made out of cloud homes and pegasus entering in and out of them with ease. I flew over to gaze upon all of the cloud homes when I didn’t notice myself running into another pegasus. “Oops, my bad. Are you alright?” She nodded, “Yes I’m fine don’t worry about it.” she looked right at me with an interested look, ”Hmm you look new here, where you from? If you don’t live here then you must need a home, oh my that must be so bad without a home. Hey you can stay with me and my family! My husband wouldn’t mind if we helped another pegasus out. Oops how rude of me for rambling on like that.” she giggled, ”My name is Shining Star, what’s yours?” I stared at her confused from the rambling and I realized I didn’t know my name, but thanks to her she helped me figure it out as she looked at the camera in pure awe from how hi-tech she thought it looked. “Oohh this is such a cool camera. Hey it say’s ‘Property of SnapShot.’. SnapShot huh? That’s a cool name!” I smiled a bit, “Well thank you, and I would be happy to go with someone so humble to let a guy like me stay at a place till I can get my hooves off the ground.” She laughed and tapped my shoulder a bit, “Your funny since you're hooves won't touch the ground here. You know, since we’re up in the sky.” I laughed and suddenly there was a bright light coming all around me and I opened my eye’s into Twilight’s house. Twilight’s eyes were open and she looked at me, confused and what seemed like.....embarrassment about what she seen. “What........did you see in your dream?” she said in a shy tone. I stared at her, “Are you alright Twilight.” she was a bit frantic and tried to get what i saw out of me and not to worry about her. “Alright then...... I’m sorry I asked but what I seen was..... these creatures that I believe are called ‘humans’ and I was one of them......but I was falling and suddenly “Poof” I was how you see me now. I also found out about my name. My name is SnapShot.” “SnapShot huh?” she smiled and was blushing, “That’s a nice name there” “Thanks Twilight.” I smiled back and started to feel drowsy and tooked a big yawn and when I was done Twilight looked at me and laughed slightly, “If you want you can sleep in my bed tonight. I will sleep on the couch or something if you want....but first I have some studying up on these ‘Ursa Major’s’ because of that story Trixie said.” He looked at me, “Alright then. Well....good night.” he said sleepily but when he came to give me a hug he fell onto me knocking us both over with the bucket. He was out cold as I enjoyed his presence on top of me as I hugged him as  tight as I possibly could so I knew what he felt like, but I knew I had to get him to bed so I used my magic to levitate him off of me and I brought him to bed. “That always happens with that spell.” She laughed as she had the biggest blush on her face from the big hug. “I may go to sleep on the couch” she started to laugh enjoying the little joke she said,”Yea right I’m going to sleep on the couch if I can stay with my little crush” she said in a whisper at the end. e. “Good night, SnapShot.” as she stayed at the door, but walked back in and kissed his forehead for the longest time. “Well I guess it’s time to study.” //-------------------------------------------------------// Complicated action's. //-------------------------------------------------------// Complicated action's. Silence. There was only silence in side of the dark closet that Sugar Rush was locked in. He has been locked inside of the closet for so long he didn’t know if it was day or night. “Stupid Changeling. Changing into me and locking me in this damn closet.” he said. As he looked at the rope, looking for a way out of them without breaking them.They were from the war when he had to climb up the rope to try and finish the mission. “Hmm lets see......how can I get out......” He thought and thought as he tried sliding out of the ropes, tried to find where the changeling tied him at in the old rope’s and he even tried to bite the ropes that held him tightly. “Damn these ropes are too tight...” but suddenly a loud roar made him forget about the ropes that he was stuck in. “U-ursa.....” he said as he was completely shocked from the roar that he knew so well was at least an Ursa minor, maybe even a Ursa Major. He broke free of the ropes that held him with his strong military muscles completely forgetting the memories that they held and he ran out of his house. As he was going through the terrified crowd going towards the monster that he was able to see. Right before the very last turn around a building he seen that the monster was now calming down and was being lifted up by a purple aura and noticed that the towns container of water was emptied and filled with milk and was giving to the Ursa Minor as a bottle. “Wow...” he said in pure shock. “Well I guess its safe to go home now. Twilight’s taken care of it.” and as he slowly walked away in pure amazement of how much magic one unicorn can hold he knew that the night is safe once again because ponyville had the best unicorn in all of equestria living here. “Uuuggghhh” SnapShot said in a groggy tone from the lonely, yet very comfortable, bed. “What’s the loud ruckus?” I said as I looked out of the window to see what his new friend Twilight was doing to the Beast that was outside. There was soft music playing and the beast was being lifted up into the sky, a metal container that was being used as a bottle came over to it and it floated away. “Wow...who would have thought she would have enough magic to do that spell and this!” He said in a happy tone. “She is so amazing and I’m so glad I now have her as a friend.” Everypony gathered around her congratulating her as Twilight was telling Trixie something, but I wasn’t able to hear it because how far away the whole group was. Next thing I was able to understand was a big puff of smoke came from Trixie and as the smoke started to clear she was far out of town. Finally that annoying pegasus is gone. Lot’s of the ponies were  congratulating Twilight again but the group was quickly dispersing and going back to their home’s. I turned around and started to walk down the stairs, groggily and unstable, and truthfully I was kind of scared walking down the stairs alone but that feeling quickly went away. “Wow....that spell she used on me sure was powerful.....it sure did make me......” I stopped walking down the stairs so I could yawn, “weak and sleepy.” As I made it down the last step I looked over to the little kitchen area where Spike went to earlier. “I wonder if she has anything to wake a pony up......” While I was in the kitchen looking for something to satisfy my very hungry belly Twilight walked into her home talking about the beast and she sounded very exhausted. “That Ursa Minor was a big problem wasn’t it Spike?” As I heard her ask the question I walked out of the kitchen and asked in a quiet tone, “What’s an Ursa Minor?” Twilight looked over, “Oh hey Snappy! Didn’t know you were up” she came over to me with a happy gallop. “An Ursa Minor is a baby of an Ursa Major. They are really hard to explain for anypony really but there mostly like a giant stary-like animal. That one looked like a bear of some-sort” I stared at her for a moment a bit dazed as I tried to process this information. The only thing that came out of my mouth after the explanation was this, “Wait....did you just call me ‘Snappy?’” She looked a bit embarrassed as she spun her hoof on the ground in circle’s, “What you don’t like that name? I only wanted to give you a small nickname....if you don’t like it I will stick with SnapShot then.” I started to laugh, “I love the name Twilight, I was just making sure that that’s what you said.” She sighed slightly and came a bit closer in a nervous manner, “You know....It’s the middle of the night....and I know that I said you can sleep in my bed but...I don’t really have any other furniture to sleep on....is it fine if we share the bed?” she had a bit of a blush on her face when she said that last part. “Twilight? Are you feeling ok? You seem to be acting rather.....odd” “No, no I’m perfectly fine it’s just I never asked another pony if we could share a bed is all.” “I’m ok with sharing the bed for a night. You know friend’s share things like that when they need to.” I smiled and hugged her tightly, “You know I wasn’t able to give you that hug earlier.” As I squeezed onto her with a hug that felt so glorious, it didn’t really seem like a hug, but something magical. I knew that there was thing’s that were said to be magnificent, I just never had one until that one single hug. Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh. Keep yourself together Twilight! As the thought’s were racing through my mind as SnapShot was giving me a hug.  You can’t show him how much you're enjoying this! We’re only friends! Wait! This is going to be a really tough night! Oh pony feathers! This is going to be even more embarrassing now! “Thank you for the hug Twilight. Thank you.” he started to laugh, “Come on. It’s time to get some shut eye.” He turned around and waited at the bottom of the stairs to let me go first. “After you.” he said and got a smile on his face for just trying to be a gentleman. As the two of us walked up the stair’s, SnapShot and I were talking about the Ursa attack and who brought them into the town and how Trixie ran out of town with her tail between her leg’s. “Well here we are!” I said as I plopped onto the bed hoping to take sleep before he got in. Sleep please! It will be getting awkward......now..... Was her last thought when SnapShot got into the bed with her and faced her and smiled. “Well goodnight Twilight.” was the only thing he said. Then he closed his eye’s and started to snore ever so quietly. “Goodnight Snappy.” I said as I brought my head up to his forehead and kissed it softly when I thought he was asleep. “It’s time to go to bed....I guess.” There was only one thing that I felt in the bed before I “Woke Up” and that was a soft kiss on my forehead and hearing Twilight say, “Goodnight Snappy.”. When felt her breathing slow down next to me, I knew she wasn’t faking her slumber how I was, so I opened my eye’s to see her lying there in a comfortable position against me. She looked so peaceful and so happy being so snug to me in the bed, she just looked like an angel that has fallen from heaven. “You look like an angel tonight,” I whispered softly so she wouldn’t wake up, “You don’t know this yet Twilight but you have saved my life.” With those final words I decided to do the same thing that she did, I kissed her on the forehead and wrapped my good wing around her and then I was able to fall into a deep sleep. It was a bright and quiet morning as I woke up from my slumber. The sun was coming in slightly and today for the first time in a long time, was a day to really do nothing. There was one difference to this morning though and that was a brown wing wrapping around me. I blushed slightly as I turned over to see Snappy pressed against me, and having his good, soft wing wrapped around me. I blushed even more as the thought of the action as it felt like he was protecting me.     I giggled softly just trying to ignore the wing with the thoughts in my mind, “Oh Snappy your being so silly.” I looked at him even closer and before I knew it I went in to give him another kiss on his forehead. Right after that one little kiss I wish, oh how I really do wish that I didn’t do that. Oh I really do wish I didn’t do that because, he woke up.     “I-I.......I......” was all I could say from the embarrassment of him looking at me. He did something though that caught me off guard, he started to laugh. He laughed and laughed and didn’t seem like he was going to be able to stop. I just stared at him as I  was about to either ask him why he was laughing or just buck him in the face to get him to stop, but instead of either of those, he just stopped laughing and gave me a hug.     Not a friendly hug that we did the night before we went to bed, but a hug that just made me want more. He held me so tightly, I just felt like I was melting. All I heard from him during the hug was a soft whisper, “So you feel the same way as I do then...”     “Y-yea,” I said in a quiet whisper, “I do..”     Right after those two words, he kissed me softly on the lips, and with that. I felt like I was about to die.     “Ugghh. What a terrible night that was.” SugarRush said as he got out of his bed. “Well...I might as well go and see Twilight. She said to come back when I could to see if she might have found a spell to get rid of my little ‘Episodes’.”     As he got up he remembered what happened the night before. He had the worst set of dreams that all ended up having him to wake up and make him “re-live” them from the war. Back then he was so excited to go to the war to save his home, but now it just ended up giving him nightmares.     As he went downstairs he grabbed his house keys and started towards the door, “I hope today Twilight can help me out.... I’m getting tired of all these spasms.” As SugarRush walked outside of the house towards the library, he looked around to see all the damage that was caused by the Ursa.     “Wow...that’s going to take us a bit of time to be able to rebuild. Well I guess if we have some good unicorn’s it could be lots faster....I don’t know, all I know is how to destroy, not to rebuild.” as he came closer to the Library home he looked up to see Twilight’s window and noticed something odd for how early it was, but there were two shadow’s there.     “Does Twilight have someone else that need’s help? But why this early? Hmm....well I don’t exactly need to have her do a spell on me right now if she has company...” he started to turn around as a figure came to the window and opened the curtain’s. It was a brown pegasus and he noticed him so he opened the window to yell down at him.     “Hey SugarRush! You feeling better after having Rarity treat you?”     “What do you mean ‘treat me’? I haven't been to Rarity’s for the past month, and how the heck do you know my name?!”     The pegasi looked confused, “What do you mean? Yesterday you ran into me and brought me to your house to cook some food for me because of the accident. Then we went to Rarity’s and you passed out from her bending over in front of you!”     He laughed hysterically, “I would never have passed out if she bent in front of me! That wasn’t me you naive child! That was...hmmm maybe I shouldn’t tell you...ahh what the hay. Come here and I will show you what it was!” I came down the stairs after giving Twilight a hug, “I will be back later alright?” “Ok Snappy. Have fun with SugarRush alright.....that reminds me, I still need to find that spell for him.....well there goes that so called ‘Day Off’.” She starts to get lost in thought as she turned around and walked towards the farthest bookcase looking for a special book. As I walked outside I looked at him and he looked the same from the day before, so how could he not be the same friend? “So you really don’t know me? Rush looked at me, “Nope. Can’t say that I do.” “Well my name’s SnapShot, just to clear that up before anymore problems come around. Now what did you want to show me?” Rush started to walk towards Rarity’s store, “Follow me and you’ll find out.” “Um alright then......so if yesterday that wasn’t the real you then what happened to you then?” I asked confused. “I was locked inside of my closet door so that thing could have been able to act like me and not worry about giving away what it truly was. Let me just say, you better not have a fear of bug’s because thats definitely what it looks like. A black bug that is able to change into any shape that it want’s to. This creature is called a ‘Changeling.’” “A what? A change.....ling? I have never heard of them.” “Good thing you haven’t then. These creatures want to feed on Love from everypony. I never thought that they would have followed me here from my last mission from the princess.....but they have.” “The princess? You work for the princess?” “I use to....but that was a long time ago during the last war. Don’t worry about that though, we're here at the shop. You go in and get the fake me out and we’ll take it back to my house to ‘dispose’ of it.” I walked into Rarity’s shop and she quickly noticed me and came over to give me a hug, “Well hello Darling! If you're here to pick him up, he’s still where he was when you left. It’s surprising that a pony like him would still be passed out for this long.” “Yea I know Rarity. Well thanks for taking care of him.” “No problem darling. So was Twilight able to help you out at all from your visit?” “Yea, she used a spell and I found out my name’s SnapShot. It was a very hard spell and I was surprised that she was able to have enough magic left to use that spell last night. I’m sorry about this but I’m kinda in a hurry so it’s time for me to go.” “Oh....alright then SnapShot, I hope we can meet up again and talk more....It’s very wonderful to have this sort of small talk with a good friend now and then....bye then” “Alright, bye Rarity.” As I picked him up and started to take him out SuagrRush was waiting patiently outside when I came out and he took the unconscious Rush off of me and put it on his back, “Come on! We need to go to my house quickly!” He quickly went into a run and I quickened my speed after he said that so I could catch up to him, “Why do we have to go so quickly? He, I mean you, I mean it seems like its in a huge trance and wont come out of it!” “Well it was surrounded by love inside of the store, and since there was so much there it lost consciousness. I know I don’t have anymore love left from going to their homeland and I don’t know if you do either so it could wake up very soon. Do you have any feeling’s for anypony out there? If so it could be unconscious a little bit longer, but not for long.” “Well.....I don't really want to talk about it alright......it’s something I want to keep to myself...” “Don’t worry about it alright. Were here at my house anyways. Open that cellar door please.” “Alright.” As I put my hoof on it and opened the rusted, and very heavy door open. “Wow that’s really heavy....but there it is.” He started to walk down the stairs and told me to close the door and the good part is, that was easier to do then opening it. “Alright! The door’s closed!” and as I said that I started to walk down the stairs into the little room. I seen the conscious SugarRush getting ready to strap the fake him onto a flat table with handcuffs to keep the one on the table locked up. The entire room had blood in lot’s of place’s with very sharp and rusted pieces of  equipment. I walked over to the table and seen something I liked, it was a medium sized Katana. I picked it up and looked at its fine and very sharp blade. “This is a very nice blade you have here Rush....” He turned around from the table he was working at for sharpening a butcher’s blade, “Yes it is. Hey, for some reason I have a lot of those of those so.....do you want to keep that? I will even throw in a few other’s if you want them. It would shorten my inventory down by a bit” “Really? That’s nice of you to give me this....and yes I would like a few others...” “No problem. All you have to do to earn them is to kill this changeling, once we get the answers we need from it.” “Kill it.....? Couldn’t we just......keep it down here so it doesn't cause us anymore trouble?” “No. You have to kill it. It would be able to escape and cause more harm if it is still alive. Kill it. After we're done asking questions.” The changeling was making some weird sounds as it was awaking and noticed where it was and turned into what it really is. A hideous creature with huge green eyes and its body was pure black with holes all around it. After a while of trying to negotiate Rush was literally screaming at the top of his lungs at the creature to talk, but the thing only laughed at him and spat in his eyes. He turned around to me and told me it was time. I walked over to the creature and lifted up the Katana in my mouth and closed my eyes as I quickly sliced the creatures throat very nervously. As I held my eye’s shut i heard coughing and I knew the blade made contact. I opened my eye’s  and looked at it for a split second. There was this different color of blood coming from it than a normal creature. I decided it was time to end this hideous thing’s suffering so I quickly tilted my head to the side and started stabbing it in the stomach. The creatures blood was pouring out as the sharp katana ripped through it’s stomach, then the liver, the the heart and lungs. The hideous thing started to scream as now every stab I did to it some torn up pieces flew out. I kept stabbing until I heard this “heart-wrenching scream” and then nothing. I stopped and I knew for a fact at the point, it was dead. I felt overjoyed to see it die because of my hooves. It made me feel like I did something that will help everypony because of the kill. “WooHoo! That made me feel good killing it!” I started to hop around with the sharp, bloody katana in my mouth.     “Careful, careful! Don’t need to kill anything else. Here.” he tosses over a belt with 3 sheath’s on it with 2 katana’s in their holder. “That’s enough to have one in your mouth and 2 for your hooves. That should keep you safe if you ever get in a problem. Now......clean up and go back to where you're supposed to...I need to get rid of this body.”     “Alright then...I’ll see you later alright?”     “We shall see SnapShot.....we shall see.”     “Twilight I’m home!” as I said that one little sentence I looked down to notice that she would not really appreciate the items that Rush gave me. I quickly found a spot where to hide the weapons. It was inside of a bag that looked like a manticore got a hold of it and had a new chew toy. As I opened it and looked inside I seen one thing that completely caught me off guard. A camera. I looked at it and noticed a faded tag that said ‘Property of SnapShot.’, “Well.........That’s something.”     Twilight was starting to come down the stairs, “Fluttershy’s woodland friend’s found that in the forest a few hundred feet away from where Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie found you at. They said that a lot of the stuff was broken. The only thing they said that was in perfect condition was that camera.” “Well..that’s all you truly need to take pictures isn’t it?”     “Yea I guess you’re right Snappy.....”     From up stairs we heard a belch and quick feet coming towards us, “Twilight! Twilight!”     “Yes Spike what is it?” and as Spike held up the scroll with a seal on the front Twilight’s eyes had a bit of a sparkle in them as she used her magic to levitate it over to herself. As she was silently reading a few seconds she looked at me, “It’s......for you....”     “For me? Well....that’s odd...who’s it from again?”     “It’s from.....the Princess.” //-------------------------------------------------------// The Visit with the Princess //-------------------------------------------------------// The Visit with the Princess “Why am I getting a letter from the princess?” is what came out of my mouth on the train heading towards Canterlot. “I’m not sure Snappy, but there is something that’s bugging me. It’s the fact she knew your name and who you were staying with... I mean I never told her about you, not yet anyways....so I don’t know.” Twilight said with a hint of curiosity, confusion and a small hint of fear in her voice. “Well I’m just saying this right now, I’m very scared.” as I looked down as I stated that very quietly. “Why would you be scared? You're just going to see the Princess. Nothing really scary about that.....unless I’m missing something there....hmm.” “It’s just the fact I am seeing the ruler of our land and not knowing why she has called for me.” She looked at me with concern as we were talking as we went through what seemed to be a very long tunnel. “Well whatever Celestia want’s from you is probably not going to be bad or anything, knowing the princess she just wanted to meet the stallion who is with her faithful student.” “But you said you didn’t send a letter to her. So that doesn't make any sense” “Well we’ll find out soon enough, since we're here.” “Wow, we got here quick didn’t we?” “Well talking on a train does speed things up I guess.” As I looked at the town, I was getting out of the train, I was in shock by how different they looked. They all wore fancy clothing with multiple amounts of jewels on them. As well as they had their heads stiffly looking towards the sky with there eyes closed. I asked her as I was intently looking at the pony’s in the town,“So Twilly, I have no clue where the castle is. Can you lead the way then.” She laughed a bit, “Come on Snappy, it’s this way.” as she started to head towards the middle of the town. As she was walking we made a few small turns but I stayed right behind her as she was heading towards the direction of the castle that I can now make out from where I was at. After a few minutes of walking we approached the doors and I was astonished. “Wow...such a big place...” I whispered softly so she didn’t hear me. As we approached the door’s to the castle, some guards came out to take me to the princess, as if they automatically knew what I looked like and that I was sent for her. I quickly turned around and gave Twilight a strong and loving hug as if this was our final time seeing each other, “Well.....I guess I have to go in by myself...” She returned the strong hug with an even stronger hug. That made me feel good that she cared and was worried if I would be ok, “Snappy, I’ll be right out here waiting for you after you talk to her, don’t  worry though alright. She’s a very nice princess.” “Alright, thanks Twilly....” and as I said that I  turned around to go towards the castle she sat down and waited like she said she would do, and when those big door’s closed I truthfully didn’t think that this little get together would be really good. The guards kept close to me as I walked into the castle. That stayed right at my side like I was a little stallion that just lost his mother. As we went through the giant castle we started to go to an even bigger set of doors with guards on both sides of them. Now they were unicorns on the sides of the doors and the guards next to me were pegasus, but the funny thing is they all look alike to me. The pegasus guard on my right stopped and went in front of me and looked me right in the eye’s with the most stern of all looks anypony could get. He said,  “Alright sir, here’s the princesses hall, please be respectful.” I looked at him and nodded, “I wouldn’t dare be disrespectful to our princess.” and he looked me over for a few seconds before he nodded in agreement and the unicorns with their magic opened up the door. As I walked in, I noticed a very tall and very strong, umm......Alicorn, yes thats what Twilight told me about our princess when I first got that letter. But I just couldn’t believe what I saw. She had a very long and very pointy horn with beautiful and majestic wings that were nicely folded on her side. I noticed how her mane moved, with so many different colors and sparkles for some reason, and as it moved I noticed that it was doing it by itself, nothing that is actually physically making it move since the windows were closed. She stood up and walked over to me and put her hoof on the top of my head and whispered to me to calm me down, “Calm yourself. There’s nothing to be worried about. Spike sent me a letter telling me a bit about you.” Now I didn’t notice this but when she put her hoof on my head I felt it then, my legs were shaking. I guess the entire time I was there they were shaking. Yet when she put her hoof on my head I instantly overcome my nervousness to a more relaxed and calm state. “Spike told me that you have been getting along with my faithful student”,she started to laugh softly,” and by the sounds of it a little too friendly...” “Yes we sorta have....I’m sorry if this makes you upset in anyway.” I saids with a blush on my face from embarrassment from it being pointed out by her. She starts to laugh a little, “Don’t worry about that, I’m glad Twilight has found someone that she can trust so much. It makes me happy to hear that she’s happy. That’s not the  reason why I called you here though. This not because of your relationship, rather its about your special talent.” I looked back at my cutie mark, “Yea my Cutie mark basically tells me to take pictures. Why would that really interest you Princess?” looking at her confused. “Well the way Spike put wrote it made it sound like you could take some really wonderful pictures. Also since you're with Twilight I want to see if you can use your special talent the best that you could possibly do. Call it.....a test if you must. I believe that you could take wonderful pictures, now if you pass you would be one of my most trustful photographer’s. As well as something a bit more.....exciting for you. If you do pass this and you and Twilight, if you two stay together, are ready to go to the next step, I will make it a Royal Canterlot wedding. If you would wish it to be..” I was stunned, “A-a......Royal wedding? T-that’s......wow...” as I stood there for a few minutes to let it sink in. “Alright Princess....I would love to have that theres just one problem.......I’m going to have to leave Twilight alone while I do this for you...but besides that... don’t you have a royal photographer? Why go with somepony like me?” “I have my reason’s SnapShot.” She smiles at me, “Now don’t worry about this, it will take you away from Twilight for my quest, but don’t worry you’ll still be able to talk to her. This is a little secret project were doing that allows a normal pony to use to talk to unicorn’s telepathically. We only have a prototype but I think this will be the best way to test it out.” “Really? You’ll just let me test out something like that? I-I mean......it’s an honor but....wow....this is such an honor. Thank you Princess.” “Now here.” she passed me a note using her magic and I caught it with my mouth. “Thats your assignment to set forth your future. I can’t wait to see your results. Farewell SnapShot.” “Goodbye Princess.” “Best of luck on your journey SnapShot, also start when you get better with your injury there. Don’t need to make you go when you're not at the top of your game.” she said this after I started to walk away but slowly out not to make it seem like I was in a rush to get out, and the bad part was I still was. “Alright Princess,” I started to speak one last time before I went out, “The doctor said a few week’s so it won't be much longer.” She nodded and I walked out the door and started to head down the stairs to the exit, and then I was with the guards again. I sighed as I sat down on the soft grass as I seen my Snappy walk in to the Princess’s corridor. “I hope this does turn out well....well as I’m waiting might as well.....no no I promised him I would stay right here....hmmm.” As I thought I didn’t hear the soft hoof-steps right behind me as my brother Shining Armour snuck up behind me and yelled at the top of his lungs, “HEY TWILLY!!” I let out a little squeak of surprise, “BBBFF!” I turned around and hugged him half to death, “I was just thinking about you! How is your job with the royal guards?” “Well I wouldn't like to brag but I was just promoted to being Captain of the Royal Guard. I’m now doing all the hard work of organizing all the troops but it’s getting easier. What are you doing here in Canterlot anyways Twilly?” I blushed a little as I suddenly didn't realize that no one really knew I had a special somepony. “I-I....I’m here with a friend on royal business with Celestia..” “Well why aren't you  with Celestia and your friend? Why are you waiting out here?” “Well Celestia wanted to see him personally.” “Him?” as he started to think I instantly knew where he was about to go with this,especially the way I acted when I answered his question, “Does someone have a special somepony?” I wanted to punch him, no I wanted to kill him for embarrassing me like this with all the other guards around, and without any other comment after that he knew he did two things, completely embarrassed me and that he nailed it right then and there. He sat down and started to whisper, “I’m sorry Twilly I didn't mean to do that. I forget sometimes that there are other pony’s near me when I talk.” I sighed, “It’s fine Shining, your still my BBBFF and not-” As I was talking the doors behind me swung open with a very shocked and nervous looking SnapShot walking out of the door’s. As I walked out of the big doors, the guards staying behind me and closed the doors, I was looking down, trying to think if I should really do this or not, because knowing me, I would definitely mess this whole thing up. But my thoughts were interrupted by a very happy and energetic unicorn rushing over to me to give me a hug, “Hey Snappy! How did thing’s go?” As I looked up and hugged her back I knew right now was not really the right time to answer the question. “Lets talk about it later.” I looked over at the white unicorn that was behind her in armor, really fancy armor to be more exact and he said in a happy tone with a bit of a smile on his face, “Hello there, my names Shining Amour, Twilight’s older brother. So you must be Twilight's special somepony,” and when he said that I knew he ticked Twilight off just a bit because she twitched about the word “special somepony”. “Well lets go get something to eat. That way we can fill our stomachs and I would be able to tell you both what happened with Celestia. It’s good new’s.....I believe...... “ I sighed, “but I really don’t know.” I listened to SnapShot as he told me what Celestia said to him, how he was assigned a position to a being a royal photographer and even the part that I couldn't believe, that Spike sent a letter to the princess without me telling him too, could he be jealous that I’m spending more time with Snappy than I do with him? Mental note: Keep an eye on Spike on new members of the family inside of the tree house. “Well that’s very good news for you there SnapShot!” as my brother patted Snappy on the back, making him cough up some of his food. Even though food like that’s disgusting, it was very cute, for some reason, seeing Snappy like that. “Ouch....my wing’s still hurt. Please watch it Armour.” My brother laughed, “Sorry about that.  Talking about those wings of your’s, what happened?” “Um bro.... lets not talk about that....since we don’t even know what happened. He lost his memory and is now slowly getting it back. We just found out his name a few days ago. So...yea we’re not really sure. All we know is he had an accident.” Shining Armour looked at him and started to think for a few seconds, “Why didn't you ask Celestia if she could bring back all your memories?” “Thing is, I wanted to before I went into my mind to find out my name, but now I don’t want to know at all what I was doing right before I jumped out of a plane.” said Snappy. “Well we really don’t know what a plane is, but does it serve the same purpose as a hot air balloon?” Shining Armour and I both asked at the same time confused on the word ‘Plane’. “Yea, sort of at least. Yet a plane is made of metal and it holds a lot more passengers and is lots sturdier.” “Wow sounds like a very advanced piece of equipment being able to do something like that.”, I said. “Yea it is a nice piece of equipment. But that's why I don’t want to try and remember what happened before that especially what I had on me.....” “What was there anyway’s SnapShot?” Shining Armour said. “Just don’t worry about it alright. It’s just time for us to eat.” he said trying to make himself eat the food in front of him. “So Celestia wants you to go on some adventures. Would you be doing it then....going out and having fun taking pictures for the princess.” I couldn't believe what happened after that. He quickly burst into tears and slammed on the table in frustration and quickly ran away from us both. I suddenly realized what I said and how it must have sounded like to him. I knew, for once, my mind had failed me this time. That must have angered him. Why wouldn't it? I would be upset if the pony you love is asking if you are going away for a long time, or maybe forever. I quickly got up and ran after him at the fastest gallop I ever knew I could. Mental note: Read over the racing books more, hmm thinking of that I should try my luck in the Running of the Leaves. Oh never mind that now! I need to get him. As I started to catch up to him I noticed his bandages were starting to come off of his wings. As I stared at his wings unfold from his side, I knew they weren't fully healed yet. He opened them up and tried, very awkwardly tried to lift off the ground. He only got a few feet off the ground when he went into the alleyway and crashed into a dumpster. I quickly went to him and tried to get him out of the smelly metal tin. I was finally able to find him and I used my magic to bring him out of the tin. I hugged him tightly, making sure he wouldn't leave. “I’m sorry Snappy. I didn't think of how you would feel like if you had to leave. I only thought of the positives of going, not the negative of having to be separated from me! I’m sorry.” and as I felt him hold onto me tightly crying into my mane I knew for a fact: he wanted to go. Yet he couldn't possibly stand to go out on his own for this sort of job, without me of course. I held onto her for what seemed like eternity, I knew she was talking but I couldn't hear anything she said. I didn't care what she was even saying at this point, I got to hold her. After a while it seemed as if she was becoming happier since the tears on my face were disappearing. I’m not really sure if that was the case, but It just dawned on me what just happened. I took my head out of her mane, her wonderful soft mane, and looked into her eyes, “D-did I just.....fly?” She shook her head and kissed me softly for only a few seconds, “Yes, Snappy, you just flew.” she paused for a second to look at my face and then her face got stern, “Did you hurt yourself when you flew?!?” as she now used her magic and looked all around my body to see if there were any cuts or bruises from my flight. “Not that I can tell at least. It actually felt.....good to be able to stretch my wings out. Even if I was clumsy with it....that at least tells me I’m healing. I guess its because I’m with you then huh Twilly,” as this one little compliment was meant to be a little joke, yet made her blush which is all that I was looking forward to seeing. “Well lets go back to the restaurant. You still haven’t eaten anything. You need your strength!” as she used her magic to levitate me and keep me close to her. What we both realized though is that i still had all of the garbage on me from when I went dumpster diving just moments before. Now, that was the biggest blush that came on her face that I didn't even mean to cause. “What Twilly? You look like you just seen 500 puppies playing around in circle with one ball.”  I said, even though the whole analogy didn't make a bit of sense. “Well you're all covered in gunk. You kinda need a bath now...” and before I knew it, I believe she started to get all these different little idea’s in her mind by putting me in the bath and stuff. Truthfully I didn't see any of this coming from her when she quickly tried to get me to a hotel room to clean up, with a big smile and a big blush on her cute face. “Twilly you know we can just find a hose of something. I’m perfectly alright.” trying to stay away from that part of a relationship. Hey I’m willing but the thing is if we did anything like that, well then it would just go way too fast. I kissed her forehead and looked into her eyes, “I know what your planning and I’m sorry to say this but I’m just not ready for that.” She looked down a bit, “Sorry.....I didn't mean to it’s just the whole idea of the shower got me thinking...” I poked her on the nose softly, “Boop.” she started laughing knowing that everything was fine now, you know if I’m starting to play around. “I love you Twilly, now come on, we need to find a hose or something to get this garbage off of me.” As I said as we were both walking back towards the restaurant when, of course a pain started to come from my wings. I sat down for just a second as she was walking farther away and I grabbed at them and rubbed them the best I could to try to somehow ease the pain. Twilight looked behind and noticed me sitting there, awkwardly rubbing my wings and she came over, not saying a word and went behind me and smacked my hooves away. I was shocked how hard she hit them to remove my hooves. After that I felt the softest of rubbing motion on my wings that felt like a masseuse that has had over 20 years of experience. “Twilly.....where in Equestria did you learn.....how to do this....” as I said in pure soft moans of how well the motion feels on my wings. She giggled softly behind me as she kept working, “Well sometimes I had to do this for Celestia and also, being around Fluttershy so much with her wing’s I guess I just learned how to do it. Why? Am I doing something wrong? Does it hurt?” she asked in a worried tone. “No....no it feels wonderful......” and with that she removed her hooves from my back and I was now surprised that they felt perfectly lose, not even a speck of pain coming from them.. I put them down on the side of my body and smiled happily. My wings don’t hurt and I’m happy to be with Twilight. Nothing could possibly go wrong. But as that thought came to my mind I knew I was wrong. I just somehow knew, something terrible was about to happen.
