Prologue: The Basket (Alpha)
Prologue: The Basket (Demo)
It was raining that day, no wind, no lightning, and practically no clouds. I guess not even pegasi can truly control the weather. The dark starry night screamed for attention, and the moon was nearly full. But even with all the darkness shrouding around the villages no one was scared, it was embraced. Twilight Sparkle blew out the oil lamps and closed the curtains and tucked Spike in, just like the day before that and the day before that. She brushed her teeth and counted the strokes, she cleaned her hooves, and groomed her purple mane. One last look in the mirror before tucking her self to sleep and…
CRASH!
Hooves loudly stamped the ground, as if in a hurry and suddenly there was no noise, no rain, no galloping, not even the buzzing of fireflies for that matter, just pure silence.
“Wonder what that could have been? I better check.” Twilight mutters to herself as if expecting Rainbow Dash, but that was too simple. Tiptoeing out her door she looks to the right from where she assumed the noise source was from and saw something odd, well not odd just… unexpected. Twilight saw a destroyed fruit stand and a basket, a basket that seemed very out of place. Why was this unexpected? Well to her knowledge there wasn’t a fruit stand fifteen feet away from her house. But that’s not what was distracting her the most, it was that basket, it’s almost as if it were luring her in.
…basket…basket…basket…basket…
Twilight had a feeling that it wasn’t a good idea to look inside, let it be handled by someone else she thought. But her curiously got the better of her. She couldn’t bear the whispering inside her head any longer.
She looked… And what Twilght Sparkle saw that very day was about to change her life… for the better or for the worst.
If you like the story so far just tell more me and more will come (this isn’t a chapter though it’s just an idea pitch in a sort)
