An Alicorn is born

Middle of a Forest; Time: Unknown

Here I was, a day old and abandon in a forest. Just my luck, how am I gonna survive? Do my parents think I will be able to fend for myself? No! They didn’t care about me. Wow….I’m pretty smart for a foal. I hear a rustling in the bushes near me. I see a two ponies, one is a colt with a sky blue coat and dark blue eyes. His mane was black with a blue streak in the middle. Next to him was a filly, pink coat, light purple mane with a bow on the top of her head. Behind them I see a few other ponies, staring in horror at me. The 2 little ponies come up to me putting me on their backs. I was bigger than them even though I was younger.

“Oh Celestia it’s horrifying! It has a horn and wings!”

“We should sacrifice it! This demon shall not walk among us!”

These ponies must not get contact from the outside world much. They keep talking about witchcraft, demons, and other medieval stuff. How the hell do I know any of this?! As the older ponies were talking, the 2 young ones start taking me back to what I guess would be their village. It was small, and it seemed very seclude since it was in the middle of that forest. Once we made it in the town more ponies took notice of me and started saying things similar to the ones from the forest.

“Mares and gentlecolts, this little filly is not a freak of nature. She is a pony just like the rest of you! She may have both the wings of a Pegasus and the horn of a unicorn but that doesn’t change who she is!” shouted the colt

“If you people don’t trust her enough….then we’ll take care of her! If she is some demon then we will be the ones to take responsibility!” added the little unicorn filly.

Out from the crowd, a Stallion came forth. Everypony let him pass and showed him much respect as he came through. He walked to where we were and stared at us. Being cautious, he picked me up and looked at me for a while.

“This little filly is true to be like the rest of us. If these two little ponies keep their word and I am wrong, then they will be executed or banished out of the village.” He explained. He then went back the way he came. Everypony then went on with their day. Giving us looks right before they left. I looked up at the ones who saved me. They looked at me with happy grins. For being one day old, I went through a lot just then.

“Hello little one, my name is SpotingStar and this is my good friend GapingMoon. We are going to take care of you. Let us show you to your new home.” Said the pink unicorn.

“You won’t be living with us since both of our houses are small and we have no room to spare. So you will be living in our tree house in the forest. We will come and take you into town every day!” stated ‘GapingMoon’. They then picked me up and put me on their backs again and started on the journey to the tree house. When we got there I took a good look at my new home. It was pretty small on the outside but the area around it looked beautiful. The outside had a fire pit for cooking and it had logs around it for sitting. It also had a little pond for fishing, swimming and even washing yourself since it had a little waterfall at the end of it. The inside of the tree house was furnished with a carpet and couch.

“We have been trying to make this like a second home for ourselves if we ever needed to get away from our homes once in awhile. I know you’re still very young but you are almost bigger than us and seem smart. Do you have a name?” asked SpotingStar. I nodded my head no, at birth I wasn’t given a name and besides….I never knew my parents.

“We we’ll give you one……how does Double Time sound?” questioned GapingMoon. I nodded no. “Surfing turf?” Again I nodded no. “Chicken doodle?” Is this kid crazy?!

“Moon, she needs a proper name, not something you think of out of nowhere. Hm, how does RingerWings sound to you?” I nodded yes. It sounded perfect and unique. I could get used to it very quickly. After they got done with that, they started showing me around their ‘Home away from home’.  After the tour they went back home and told me they would be back in the morning. I went onto the couch and took a blanket and went to sleep almost instantly.

Tree House, Time: 3:00 am

I was having a dream….it was dark and very hazy. There I was, in a dark room. I started seeing stars and planets everywhere. It was then that I heard a voice. It was mysterious and different than any voices I’ve heard before.

“Daughter, I am sorry I can’t be there for you to see you grow up and get your mark. But I will be with you one day. In few years, when the 1000 sun celebration begins, I will be with you.”

“But why aren’t you with me now! When I need you the most! I almost got killed since I have both a horn and wings. Why do I have them both instead of one or none at all?"

“You are special daughter, you will understand one day. But I must go; my time going in dreams is short. We will speak again one day.”

“My name is RingerWings, no thanks to you. Bye mom.” The voiced then started fading. I never got to see what she looked like but I was still a bit happy to speak to her. I was mad at her but glad at the same time.  I knew that that wasn’t her voice since it was different than what you would expect. Like it was the night itself trying to send me words of wisdom. I stayed in that dream for a while. Thinking to myself of what just happened. In my dreams I was in a whole new world, able to do as I please.

Sometime afterwards, like three hours later, I woke up pretty early compared to other ponies. I could tell it was still early from the morning dew on the windows. When I exited my new home, I could see all the animals living peacefully, no cares in the world. It was right then that my stomach started to rumble. I knew I was hungry but i didn’t know how to get food. There was no way of storing food in my current home so I had to find another way. My survival instincts kicked in, which was pretty early for my age. I knew I had to hunt for my food. I went and found a piece of string and a stick from a cabinet inside the tree house. I tied the string to the stick and then found a feather and tied it to a smaller stick. I walked a far distance from the tree house so I don’t scare the animals nearby and besides, none of those are good to eat.

When I was about half a mile away I found what seemed to be a cow. I’m not good with names. I drew my newest weapon back, aiming for a perfect shot in the heart. I was about to shoot when I heard a gasp from behind. I accidentally let go and I shot my arrow. I missed so I didn’t get my breakfast. When I turned around I saw the 2 ponies from yesterday. They had a basket and some other things with them that I couldn’t tell what they were.

“Were you...going to kill that animal?” asked SpotingStar, she had a frightening tone in her voice that anypony could tell she was scared. I nodded my head in agreement. I showed her my stomach as it rumbled. She got the signal and showed me the stuff in the basket they brought. It had sandwiches (No meat of course), juices, and much more. I also noticed that on GapingMoon’s back that he had a saddlebag with him. He told me that he would show me them once we got back to the tree house.

While we were on our way back, they started to ask me questions and telling me about what they plan to do to help me. They told me that tomorrow school will start up again and wanted me to attend. They said that I may still be young but that I seem smart for my age. I looked at myself and saw that I was about as tall as they were even though I’m only a few days old. They said that they also plan for me to get our cutie marks with them. For some reason I knew that doing the same thing with us together wouldn’t be a good idea. I kept trying to persuade them not to but I didn’t know how to speak yet. Some of the questions they asked me were ‘Why were you in the forest?’ and ‘Do you have any idea how you are like this’ but of course I couldn’t answer them because I can’t bucking talk!

We finally got back to the tree house and I went straight for the pond. As I was washing myself off they were setting something up. They had put a blanket on the ground and it was in a checkered form. They had put all the food from the basket onto the blanket and had put it near the fire pit so we could sit on the logs if we didn’t want to sit on the blanket. I got out of the pond when I smelled the aroma of freshly cooked bread. I shook myself off and they gave me a towel to get warm.

“So Ringer, in the bag we have some stuff for you to have. It is mainly just things that we thought you would need while you stay here and would just need for another time.” explained Moon. I reached into the bag and found a shirt, well not really a shirt but it was similar. It had pockets on the front and it was open in the middle so I didn’t get too warm while wearing it. It was quite warm and weighed a little but it fit well. I also found a crown.

“You seem to be what Princess Celestia is, something called an Alicorn. But we wanted to give it to you since you are a princess to us.” Said Star. I thought ‘ Somepony is like me!’ But if this is a royal figure then why did those villagers think I was a freak?’

“Wha.....pon.....ird?” I tried speaking but it just didn’t come out right.

“What was that? You almost got it but not quite there.” Moon stated.

“What did those ponies think I was weird? Oh man I talked! I talked!” I said ecstatically.

“Yay you did it! Well we have no idea why, maybe it’s cause they never seen one outside of the royal family...and you did look dirty.”exclaimed Star.

I went over to the pond to take a look at myself. I had a dark purple coat and orange hooves. My mane was mainly black with a red stripe and swayed to the back of me but not like a normal mare. As all alicorns have, I had my horn and wings and they we quite big for me being a young filly. My tail matched my mane and was quite long.

“I look awesome! How would they think I look weird. Those ponies are weird for thinking that not me!” I told them with an angry tone in my voice. They calmed me down and we continued our picnic. I really enjoyed myself. They told me about school and how you learn things and be able to make friends. I couldn’t wait to go tomorrow.

What I didn’t know was that I was gonna meet my first enemy
