Tales of The Prince Pt1

Tales of the Prince…

“It's been 3 years since I arrived here and I’ve fit in perfectly normal yet I still hold a ton of resentment to my past and yet I still don’t understand how to even begin to fix my issues…”

It was a dark and droopy night cold dark and drizzling quietly as it fell I was just walking along a dimly lit road the smell of wet grass entering my nose with every breath, it had been awhile since I had last set foot in ponyville yet I wasn’t planning on arriving in the dark and rain. Still it still retained its somewhat cheerful eeriness to it something I’d never be able to fully comprehend but I pressed on in the dark cold only a tiny bit of Luna's moon was visible as my only bit of company I had I passed a dark road I ignited my fire in my hand to illuminate what I could it was no different from the street lights but it did the job. I kept walking listening to the deep clap of the thunder in the distance and the sound of water being turned into vapor as it landed in my fire I continued walking down the street most of the houses where completely dark inside was it really that late I looked up at the moon again to see a bolt of lightning glide past it in the air striking in the distance and making a audible rumble as it dissipated back into the darkness I knew I continued heading towards twilights tree house for a late night visit but the up side to it was the fact she was usually up this late during the week dealing with her studies same as always. I approached the dimly lit tree house it was completely covered in what seemed like a never-ending layer of darkness I reached for the door and knocked lightly…no answer, I knocked again this time the violet Alicorn appeared in the doorway she seemed a bit dazed.

“Evening twilight” I gave a slight bow still joking about how she’s royalty now I chuckled at the thought “I hope I didn’t disturb you did I?”

Twilight simply gave me a warm smile like something I’d seen from Celestia herself

“Not at all Austin, it’s good to see you but what brings you here at this hour I thought you had fire bending training this week?”

“funny thing is I’m the only one who can really do it I think that gives me the excuse to leave since only I can practice it” we both laughed and she stopped abruptly and jumped at the flash of lightning that flew behind me then she remembered

“Oh silly me where are my manners please come in” she gestured her hoof inside her house” I nodded and entered it was quite warm inside her house compared to the cold rain of the night anyways but none the less I entered and water bend the excess off my coat and hung it on the rack next to the door twilight was already back at her desk. Sitting on her haunches she gave me a warm glare as she began to speak,

“You didn’t answer my question Austin, Why are you here?”

I simply shook my head

“Well I needed to get out it wasn’t raining though so I thought it was going to be clear till I got there apparently the weather ponies didn’t notify me about the change in weather.”

She giggled and I joined her in a hearty laugh and sat down bending the water out of my hair

“I guess I came here cause Luna is off dealing with some business in appleloosa but what are you going to do so I decided it best to come to ponyville visit my best friend” I allowed a warm smile to cross my face followed by a cough.

“Are you ok?” her smile dropped like a stone I raised a hand and tried to speak

“I- BAH! Fine!” I kept hacking till I finished with a sheer pain in my chest “I haven’t felt that way since I was kid uhg way to bring back some old unwanted memories”

Twilight gave me a look of confusion

“What memories?”

“Umm, nothing big just when I was a kid I uh never mind I don’t really want to talk about it”

“Are you sure?”

I nodded

“I’m fine don’t worry I’ll tell you about it some other time when I don’t feel to conflicted about it”

I looked away sheepishly and I felt a gently hoof on my shoulder I looked to see twilights caring eyes I placed my hand on her hoof

“Thank you for your concern I’ll be fine no need to worry”

She looked skeptical after that but I told her about what I had been practicing a few newer bending moves but it wasn’t anything to really brag about (yet anyways) I chuckled at that thought in the back of my head but at least I had someone to talk to than Shining armor sure they were nice and all but I guess it’s better to go back to those you met first and seen change in the world. Several hours had passed yet I wasn’t feeling any better if anything I began feeling a lot worse than I started, I remember something similar pain when I was a kid with my family oh how I hated those times and I regret ever trying to think of it but here I was in pain as I was when I was 13 years old.

“Well twilight my pain isn’t getting any better before I tell you about why I think the pain is linked to my turmoil but before I do is there any spells you know to help fix that?”

I gave her a hopeful smile but she walked over to me and sat down and examined me closely

“Where is the pain concentrated?” she gave a reassuring smile I simply pointed at the upper right hand side of my chest. She gently placed her horn on me and I immediately felt more pain I swear I could’ve fallen over and started to cry in the pain but something was holding me back I simply gritted my teeth tighter.

“You weren’t kidding I can feel a lot of turmoil pain and suffering in your heart and its spread into your love and trust”

“Great news just as I thought was happening just perfect” I breathed in and closed my eyes and remembered my past “I thought I forgot about all those pains thousands of years ago I guess I was wrong”

“Pain like that has all but fouled you have to get it off your chest to begin healing”

“And just how do you purpose I do that I know only one way to confirm this is really happening it’s only happened one other time and it disappeared last year” I paused “during the changeling wars”

I stood up and put on my jacket on the rack and stepped outside and prepared to try a lightning bending move the purest form of fire I took my solid state stance and curved my left hand and pointed my index finger and my middle finger in a point and bundled the rest in my palm and just as I thought would happen, nothing happened I continued the move and did the same with my other hand and on the last part I pointed my left fingers out and it happened….*KABOOM* I flew backwards and a huge fireball lit up the entire street and I slid in the wet mud and flew into a wall surprisingly not going through it.

“UHG!!! Yep its defiantly back!” I rubbed my head and got up to feel sheer pain in my back and looked back to see the wall had an almost perfect outline of my body imbedded in the wall I walked back over to twilights home to see a scorch mark and a bit of smoke rising off the ground.

“yep its defiantly back and it looks like it’s worse than I remember” I cracked my knuckles and walked over to twilight whose mouth was agape.

“I guess I have a lot to explain?” she didn’t say anything but instead she covered me in her magical aurora at that moment sheer pain engulfed me and I screamed in pain and heard a loud ‘Crack’ and I grasped my back and I collapsed to my feet. I groaned as I realized that she fixed my back I was able to bend over but that didn’t stop the other ponies waking up I looked around to see lights coming on in most of the houses that were in the blast radius.

“We should probably get inside before a mod realizes it’s me that caused that” I gave a sly smile and headed inside twilight’s house once more…

Part 2: Back to the past…

I sat down in Twilights library I had put a ice pack on my now bruised back and began my long forgotten past or more less purposely forgotten past back then I never really cared about it now that I think about all the shit I had to deal with but I had never imagined it to return.

“So what is this turmoil you speak of?” twilight said with welcoming eyes as she sipped her steaming beverage

“psh, I don’t know I guess we go back to when I was 13”

*Flash Back*

“it was a cool November of 2044 it was nearly December light powder sugar was falling in my parents old house if I remember correctly I had been talking to my Girlfriend or say my first girlfriend.” I sighed at the thought I had just received a face book message from her the first in 4 years without saying a word to her, it was something that you could never imagine happy, pleased, there wasn’t a way to explain it.

‘So how have you been lately savanna?’ I typed into the chat box and sat back waiting for a response I switched to my email to read the daily gossip or news or anything that would be a bit less boring then a faint *ding* came from face book with a reply

‘I’m good it’s been awhile since we last talked’ I started typing out another message

‘Ikr!’ I hit enter and resumed my search for something to do.

*present time*

“This kept going for nearly 2 years I talked to her we where once very happy and I never thought it would end except for one particular dream that apparently foresaw what was bound to happen. It was around July in fact, of 2046 she had invited me with her to a day out in the park but this was more than a average visit she was quiet all day, she never talked to me she never said anything kind or thank you when I complimented her then I realized my darkest fears had already started to unfold… and only a few months after her dumping me like a sack of bricks I broke down depressed for almost a whole year and things only continued to drop for me shortly following my parents were fighting constantly turns out his job was really putting a lot of strain on her and that was in early October. A few weeks later he cheated on her found a secret computer with um inappropriate shit.” I sighed as I looked at twilight her expression was solemn shocked as was everyone else who knew of my families dilemmas then she finally spoke.

“W-oa---h, I don’t know what to say Austin this is really dark this is really down there”

She breathed

“Yea well I had to live through it and I thought I forgotten about it but apparently I hadn’t”

*Months After First Incident*

I had been healing from my losses it was nearing the new school year, plenty to take my mind off of those matters it didn’t help me any. Only soon after that my dad had barely missed Christmas causing them to argue almost the entire holiday and all they would argue about is how he is a cheating bastard nothing I could do to but watch as family bonds washed away like the rain in a storm… Lightning flashed outside followed by thunder brining me back to yet another harsh memory spill out in front of me.

It was nearing summer school was almost over Easter had passed and things didn’t appear to get any better but with my age it only kept getting worse each week and then months then years, I had become an artist and it was an outlet for me to show how I truly felt when I was in doubt or sorrow to make things worse my family wasn’t even technically a family anymore no deep fun conversations at dinner my sister was brutal and many times I had considered the unimaginable, and after so many years I wondered why people could do such things yet here I was imagining it clear as day and that answer enlightened me and yet at the same time horrified me. With what friends I had in that time talked me out of it and soon after their lives started going downhill and they disappeared for weeks which took me down further I felt hopeless I couldn’t sleep at night or stay awake easily and that’s part of the reason I love the night, back then we once said you can talk to the moon and it will listen and I did that every night in peace and quiet with some comforting words of my friends that I had left. When it rained my parents where in separate areas sleeping I would open my window and stick my head out to the nights cool embrace as droplets fell on my face and the smell of wet grass hit my nostrils it was one of the few things that would cheer me up that and the stars. Things only continued to get worse for me soon after my grandmother died and I never got to say goodbye to her this caused me to fall into another deep depression I didn’t leave my bed I didn’t move I hardly did school I never talked to anyone weeks had passed and I had received a personal letter from one of my friends showing great concern, worried I got back online and told them not to worry and I went off again and didn’t move for another week.

*Present time*

I sighed at remembering all the bull shit that had happened to me and how there was nothing I could do.

“there was only one pain that I remember clearly when I was upset Id get a dull pain in my chest or near my heart.” I put my hand over the area it was already starting to pain slightly like it used to.

“Perhaps keeping your feelings bundled away and hidden for so long have to be cleaned from you”

I simply sighed and felt a soft tear flow slowly down my cheek and onto my hand and a new memory stormed through my mind

*Years later*

I clenched my fist shut with the harsh reality that my girlfriend had moved away to Florida never to see her again many tears started flowing down my cheeks as I held the letter tightly and all she could say to me was a goodbye on a letter not in person I kept crying and turned to face the fireplace which roared silently and I letter and ripped the final lines of it and threw the rest into the fire and watched it burn and I held the piece of her signature that I would never see again, I walked over to her picture on the mantle above the fireplace and touched her cheek and walked away silently and cried the rest of the night…

*Present Time*

“well twilight I pretty much laid my life out in front of you it’s up to you to decided and I can’t figure out what to do I’m to confused to do it or have any thoughts on this matter.”

I felt a soft hoof on my shoulder and looked to see twilights soft violet eyes looking at me she had a tear in her eye

“I am sorry I have upset you twilight but someone needs to know and I can’t keep it hidden any longer.”

She nodded and gave me a snuggly hug and I let my final tears roll down m cheek and on her and hoped it would all stop eventually.

To Be Continued…
