//------------------------------// // Part 2 Chapter 5 // Story: A daughters life and purpose // by Punsz //------------------------------// I found myself back in a very familiar wasteland surrounded by...well nothing. Almost no life was seen, I could hear nothing just a simple gust of wind blowing in the air. Suddenly my ears started to twitch as started to hear some kind sound coming off from the distance. “Hello?” I called out. I turned in every direction, but I could see nothing. Suddenly I found a lone figure standing in front of me. “Ahh!” I fell on my flank. Looking up, I realized that the figure in front of me was a changeling. “Who are you?” The tall changeling didn’t say a word, her eyes just examined me from hoof to horn. “Uh...” “You grown so much.” was the first thing she said. “What?” I started to examine the changeling as well. Judging from her figure and voice she was a mare, her teal mane had was long and silky. Something felt very familiar with this changeling, and not just that her voice made me feel safe and protected. “You’ll make a fine queen one day.” Now I really started to get confused. Was she like Harak was she some kind nanny or something? “Um do I...Know you?” Still looking down at me, the changeling mare let out a sigh. “Yes, you did...I was...someone from your past.” “Like Harak?” She nodded her head. “Something like that yes.” We both stayed silent without speaking a single word, I could still feel her gaze on me. Looking back at her, I gave her a small smile. “Well if you are then could you tell me your name.” At first she paused to answer pondering if she should say something. “My name is Chrysalis I am your...” And everything went black. I woke up with Celestia’s sun shining through my window, with my mane a mess I looked around my room. It was a simple bedroom with a bed, a large chest, and a wooden table covered in papers and books. Next to me was Mr.Buzzers a blue parasprite plushy. “That was...weird.” I tried to remember the dream that I had trying to figure out what happened. “Her name it sounds so familiar.” I tried to think of all the names of every possible pony I know, but nothing came up. “Oh well I’ll ask Twilight about it later. Looking at the one clock in my room, a big smile formed on my face. “A whole day to myself no training, no practices, and no exercises.” I let out a happy sigh. “Well Mr.Buzzers what should the first thing we do today?” I looked at the small plushy waiting for its answer. As if hearing the words I wanted to hear I nodded my head. “That sounds like a good idea I’m sure Juniper will be happy to hear the good news. Getting up from my bed I made my way towards the bathroom to wash up and prepare myself for the day. Looking into the mirror I saw my reflection. I opened my mouth showing off my fangs, levitating my toothbrush I started to brush my teeth. After completing my whole morning routine I made my way towards the kitchen. Upon entering I saw Twilight standing in front of the stove levitating a fry pan while humming a little tune. “Morning Twilight.” Turning her head a smile grew on her face. “Good morning Chirp, did you sleep well.” Finding a seat on one of the chairs I waited at the table. “Yeah it was alright.” Other than the weird dream I thought. “Well that's good.” Levitating a plate to herself, she placed three waffle on the plate. Placing the plate in front of me she poured on some syrup and sat in front of me. “So any plans for today?” I started devouring the waffles. “Yar I’m gerna go and che if Jerper wrants to prlay!” I said, with my mouth full of waffles. "Care to say that again, but this time without the waffles." Twilight placed a cup of milk in front of me which I happily took and drank. "I said I'm going to ask Juniper if she wants to play today." I started to stuff my mouth again with waffles enjoying the meal. "Hmm that sounds fun." We both suddenly heard a loud grumble from the other room, walking into the room was a very sleep purple drake. "Morning Spike!" I called. His response was only a small grunt. Taking a seat he placed his head on the table surface. "Well looks like came home late last night hmm." Responding with a muffled grumble he lifted his head from the table his eyes still droopy. "A drakes duty is never do...uh...~BURP!~" With a small flare of green fire a scroll fell on the table. "Oh a letter." Picking up the letter Twilight began reading. "Hmm it looks like the princess wants to see me at Canterlot." "For what?" "It doesn't say...hmm it only says that its urgent." Finishing my plate of waffles I look up at Twilight with a curious look. "How long will you be gone for?" "I'm not sure, but it looks like I'll have to leave now." Getting up from her seat she left to get herself ready. I looked at Spike whose head was faced down again. Sitting closer to him I raised a hoof in front of his face and started poking his cheek. After the sixth poke He raised his head to look at me. "What?" He said drowsily. I jumped off my seat and ran away. "And she's says I'm childish." I made my way towards the front door of the library and called out to Twilight. "Twilight I'm going out to play!" I heard her yell out from her room. "Alright Chirp! You know the rules right?" I let out an annoying sigh. "Be home before sunset." "And?" "Don't get into fights I know." "Alright then have I'll see when I come back." And with that I left the library, it was still pretty early for the day so there weren't many ponies awake at this time. I made my way through the ponyville streets making my way towards a certain house just out of town. Seeing the house I quicken my pace, arriving in front of the front door I paused for a moment. I looked to my left and then to my right, making sure the area was clear I rang the doorbell. No answer, I rang it again, suddenly I started to hear a high ringing noise. I checked surroundings again, but nothing the ringing noise started get louder and louder. I started to realize the ringing noise started to sound like a word. "CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!" My eyes went wide, I up towards the sky above me. "Juniper what are ~THUMP~" I found smiling green pegasus sitting on top of me. I felt as if I was hit by a high speed taxi wagon. I opened my eyes to find my vision covered in dirt. "Hey Chirp what are you doing here?" I heard Juniper's voice muffled. Pulling my head out of the ground, I spat out some dirt in my mouth. "Well I was going to ask ~pppft~ you if you wanted too ~ppppft~ hang out today?" "Totally, definitely, of course, yeah!" "Cool want to go to Sugercube corners?" She nodded her head, We made our way towards the sweet shop talking about random topics usually Juniper would come up with different things to talk about. We finally arrived at Sugercube corners, upon entering we were greeted by a pink maned pony, her mane was all puffy and fluffy. "Hi welcome to Sugarcube corners!" "Hi Pinkie!" "Oh hey there Chirp how are you?" The pink mare gave a smile her expression was just pure happiness. "Oh I'm fine, Juniper and I just came here to hang out." "Oh that's nice I like to come here with my friends too sometimes we would have cup cake eating contest and eat until we all couldn't move, but the bad part is that after that we all got a bad stomach ache and then." "Uh Pinkie?" I raised my voice a bit. "Yeah?" "Can you take our order?" "Oh yeah woops kind of got a bit too excited there." Taking our orders and going back to make us a fresh batch Juniper and I sat at one of the tables. We continued to talk until our orders arrived, so far my free day is going well I'm hanging out with my best friend, I have no lessons and practice. nothing can absolutely ruin this. "Well well well look who's here at Sugarcube corners." At the sound of that voice my ears began to twitch. Both juniper and I turned our heads towards the entrance of Sugarcube corners and four fillies. "Oh no it's her." I groaned.
