Rainbow Blitz was annoyed by Butterscotch as he flew through the air. Comet is a peagsus for ponies sake! She belongs in the clouds! Though, he did have to admit, the yellow pegasus had a point. She would be safer on the ground until her eyes healed. Comet Fire looked a lot like another pony, but he couldn't figure out who. It didn't matter. What mattered was getting back to Cloudsdale, he had promised a practice session with one of his friends.
The blue pegasus flew as fast as he could to Cloudsdale, and landed at his house. He went inside, expecting his friend to be inside, though he saw nopony. "Meteor! Where are you?" Rainbow Blitz called out.
No answer. Meteor Shower must not be here yet. Rainbow Blitz's ear twitches at the sound of wings. He turns around to see a white pony with a blue mane, a light colour streaking through it. "Sorry I'm late Blitz! But I was helping Bubble Berry bake some sweets!"
Rainbow Blitz smiles. "It's alright Meteor!" I just-" Rainbow Blitz stops short as he stares at Meteor Shower. He looked exactly like Comet Fire. Meteor Shower looks at Rainbow Blitz, raising a brow in confusion. "Something wrong?"
Rainbow Blitz shake his head. "No! Let's get going!" Rainbow Blitz races out of his cloud home. Meteor Shower follows him closely, confused by his friends actions. Rainbow Blitz glances to the white pegasus. Why do they look so alike? Meteor doesn't have a sister! ....Does he? Rainbow Blitz knew the young colt knew nothing about when he was younger, but the similarities... "Hey... uh... Meteor?"
"Yeah?"
"You don't have a sister... Do you?"
Meteor Shower looks at him. "No, I don't."
"You sure?"
Meteor Shower gave Rainbow Blitz the "I-know-more-about-myself-than-you" look. "I have traveled all over Equestria, if I had a sister, I would have met her in my travels and gone to live with her instead of living in Ponyville."
Rainbow Blitz was even more confused by his answer. "Alright, just wondering."
Comet Fire waits patently as Butterscotch wraps a new bandage around her eyes, letting out a sigh. "How long am I supposed to wear this?"
She could hear him tear and bandage and felt him carefully clip it to the rest of the bandage around her eyes. "The doctor said for two weeks at least. We don't know if you'll be able to see again, though."
Comet Fire sighs. She would like to see again. See her friends, her home. See the new friends she's made. She hears Butterscotch pick up something. "I have to go into town and get a few things, I'll be back soon."
Comet Fire looks to where the voice came from. "Can I come with you?"
Butterscotch sighs. "Not today. You still need rest. I'll take you the day after tomorrow, alright?"
Comet Fire hesitates, but nods. "Alright."
She hears the door open and close gently, knowing he had left. She carefully walks to her room, laying down on her bed.
Tonight was the night.
The night Nightmare Moon became Princess Luna.
Her tradition.
Comet Fire messes with her mane, making sure her horn was hidden. She looks to where she thinks the window is over her bed, hoping that she was facing the sky, not looking at one of the walls trapping her inside the cottage.
For tonight, she shall fill the sky with shooting stars.
