The unnamed filly has been living a slave by her parents. Her mother (Ocean Rise a blue earth pony with a yellow mane) and her father (Cloudy Day a brown Pegasus with a grey mane)  both high-class  Canterlot ponies never wanted a foal and locked her up for years under the floorboards, only to let her out to clean. 

They only fed her when after they were finished and gave her their leftover scraps and clean after. They always had to lock her up again when ever there were guests. She was able to understand what some words meant over time when she ether would be punished and beat or not, but never learned to speak through that time.

"Get up!" Her mother said yelling above the door where she lived. Removing the carpet that covered it and unlocking to let the filly out to start working. "Get out!", her mother kicked her in the face. "Faster!" She yelled. having to go through this every day for years she got use to it, but was still always afraid of them. 

Her parents left to go to a party. They always liked having scented candles to cover up whenever they let her out. 

Only they forgot to blow one out before leaving and was left by a window. All the windows had curtains and the candle caused the house to catch fire. 

The filly didn't know what was happening and was trying to stay conscious. 

The fire ponies were alerted and rushed to put it out. Princess Twilight also arrived to help. 

Once the fire was put out the fire ponies and Princess Twilight went in to try to find out what caused it. Having all that heat from the fire and water, the floorboard covering the filly's "room" was weakened. One of the fire ponies hooves fell through. Pulling it out he saw her. "Hey! Over here!" He called to the others. "And bring an axe!" He said. 

Pulling her out, other ponies saw her for the first time. She was filthy, an extremely skinny grey earth pony with a white mane. He checked her pulse. "She's breathing." He said calmly but nervously. 

Twilight volunteered to fly her to the hospital.
