The Aurora Project

You know how I explained Night's special "talents"? Well, her whole family has what you would call superpowers... But they try not to use them in front of other ponies, unless dire circumstance do they go against this. And, without too many spoilers, I think they are going to have more than enough dire circumstances very soon. Anyways, back to what I was going to tell you. Where was I... Ah, yes. Their "superpowers"... Well, as you could guess, Day Fire is an elemental pony, she has the power to control fire. She demonstrated that with Dawn last night. Dawn Star can bend reality, like Discord. yet he has hardly any control over it and he isn't very powerful. Lastly, Dusk can change his form at will, normally staying animal forms, but he isn't limited to that. All of them have a way of communicating via their thoughts

The next day, the four of them were woken by somepony pounding on the door. Dusk stayed huddled under his covers. Dawn looked around sleepily. Night was out of bed, staring at the door. Day dragged herself out of bed and walked to the door.

"Oh would you just hold on?!" She yelled at the banging. She entered her code as the lights came on and the door slid open. Delta stood there, smiling and holding a box under his wing. He looks scared now, seeing the different pony answer the door.

"Um... Does Night live here...?" He asked worried that he had the wrong door. Night's eyes shot open and she ran to the door, knocking Day out of the way.

"Hi! w-what are you doing here?" Night said happily, slightly nervous. Delta retrieves the box from below his wing and hands it to Night. She looks at the box in surprise.

"Open it!" He says eagerly. Night pulls the top off of the box and looks at it's contents. Her jaw drops and she looks up from the box to Delta's ecstatic expression and back to the box. A blade lay in the box, only a small dagger. Though it's blade was the shape of a thunderbolt. She looks back to her cutie mark and gasps. It is just like her mark. She retrieves the object from the paper and wood shavings. What she held in her hooves looked as though a master craftsman had forged it from a lightning bolt itself. It's intricate engraving was amazing. She opens her mouth to say something but she finds herself without the power to even whimper. She looks up, tears in her eyes.

"Th-This... Is..." is all she could say before an urge overpowered her, She dropped the box and wraps her hooves around him and kisses him passionately. Delta stood there, shocked by her reaction, though he kisses back after he realized what had happened. After what seemed like minutes, Night broke the kiss and blushed heavily, picking the blade and box up.

"W-Well... Y-You wanna come in...?" She asks, still flustered and blushing from the kiss.

"Um... Sure! If it's ok?" He said, trying to be polite. Night nodded and rushed off to her bed, putting the box and blade under her covers. Delta walks in, looking around. He walks over to Night, glancing at Dusk's bed, which is shaking.

"Who's that?" He asks looking at Dusk's bed.

"Dusk Drop, he isn't good with ponies he doesn't know well..." Night replied while looking at Day, who was grinning and walking slowly over to the two of them.

"Oh Night~ Who's your friend?~" Night tenses up and her face turns a bright crimson. Day extends a hoof to Delta and smiles.

"I'm Day Fire~ Nighty's twin sis~" She giggles as he shakes it and smiles.

"Delta... Are you all new here? I've never seen you around here..." Night and Day exchange confused glances.

"No, we've been here since... well since we can remember..."

"Oh... Well then... You wanna meet up sometime? I mean, besides now..." Night giggles and smiles

"Sure, I'd love that..." She hugs him and kisses him. After a little while and extreme conversing about trivial matters, Delta leaves with a cordial goodbye. Night sits on her bed and smiles dreamily, thinking about Delta. And I would be lying if some of those thoughts were a little dirty. But that's for another story... She lays in her bed and drifts off to sleep.
