A fiery mystery part 2 (song edit)
As Twilight stared at the book she was reading, she took notice of the time of day. While she would like nothing more than to sit back down and read the legend, she was intrigued by, Twilight knew that her parents would be worried about her. As would the Princess.
Princess Celestia had gone to the hospital as soon as she heard that her student was ill, but when she heard the diagnosis of Twilight's condition she looked like somepony told her that she could no longer eat cake; And Twilight had first-hoof knowledge on how much Celestia loved her cake. The fact that she joined the Princess on her cake raids from time to time was just icing on the cake.
The Princess had decided to grant Twilight the privilege of being the official overseer of the Summer-Sun-Celebration as a way to say she was sorry she didn't realize sooner that Twilight had been sick.
While walking back to the castle Twilight recalled a mournful melody from her past. Strangely enough, she could remember every word, but she couldn't tell where she had learned it. To this day, she would always sing the song when she was sad. and yet, she always felt like she was never alone when she sang.
Normally Twilight would just hum a few bars of the song, but it seemed like it fit this situation perfectly that she just had to sing it
"A bright sunrise,
will contradict
the heavy fog
the weighs you down"
Twilight sang her song with a heavy heart knowing that this was going to be the last time she would be able to hold her little assistant again. She had felt such a strong connection to Spike ever since she hatched him that the thought of him being without her hurt her to the very core.
"In spite of all
the funeral songs
the birds will make
their joyful sound."
As she walked, Twilight saw three other ponies that once tried to make friends with her. She had always come up with excuses to not befriend anypony, but now, she saw just how much she kept herself isolated.
"you'll wonder why the earth still moves
you'll wonder how you'll carry on.
But you'll be alright, on that first day,
when I'm gone."
It pained Twilight to know that for all her life, or at least the life she could remember, she had always chosen to study rather than enjoy life as it was meant to be enjoyed. If she had the chance to live her life over again, she would take it in a heartbeat. Twilight just sighed as she walked past the other ponies without saying anything to them.
"Dusk will come with fireflies,
and whippoorwill and crickets call,
and every star will take its place,
in a silvery gown and purple shawl."
"you'll lie down in your big bed,
dread the dark, and dread the dawn,
but you'll be alright, on that first night,
when I'm gone"
After Twilight passed the ponies, one of them, a pony named Lyra, asked a question that was no doubt on their minds, "Why was Twilight crying?" She said, wondering what happened.
"You will reach for me in vain,
you'll be whispering my name,
as if sorrow were your friend,
and the world, so alien"
Though Twilight wanted to be afraid of what the future would hold for her family and Spike, she just could not bring herself to worry. It's not like she didn't care about what was going to happen after she died, but more like something within her was telling her not to worry.
"but life will call, with daffodils
and morning glorious blue skies,
you'll think of me, some memory,
and softly smile to your surprise"
As Twilight approached the castle walls, she saw the sky carriage that was to take her and her family to Ponyville, waiting for her arrival.
" and even though I love you still,
you will know where you belong"
Twilight smiled at the sight ahead of her, even though she knew it would be the last time she saw it. tears filled her eyes, knowing that given time, her family and Spike will be alright. and Spike would never be alone.
"just give it time, we'll both be fine,
When I'm gone."
After Twilight finished singing she noticed the moon coming over the castle; The picture of the mare in the moon shown clearly on its surface. As she stared at the moon she suddenly remembered the legend of Nightmare Moon returning on the longest day of the thousandth year, and the upcoming Summer-Sun-Celebration was the 1000th time it’s come about.
Unnoticed by Twilight, perched on a castle balcony were two phoenixes. The first one had the normal plumage of vivid red and gold feathers covering its entire body. The other, however, had feathers of silver. Its head plumage was a steel gray, with the tips a tinge of red-orange. The color of its wings and tail feathers were a cornflower blue while the rest of its body had differing colors gray. Its main body was a light slate-gray while its talons were darker. The two sat watching the young unicorn as she stepped onto the transport that was taking her to the beginning of her destiny.
"Re's grown quite vanima hasn't re Eternus?" The Phoenix on the right asked. While only a few ponies have ever heard a phoenix speak in its native tongue, none have ever learned how to speak it. "Re maa just ve' he` Atara."
"Tanya re has Philomena. I' coiasira naa fast approachien tanya yuuyo Atara ar' Tinu nauva reunited ar' amin can finally teach he` about he` heritage. He` ai elen has y' maranwe tanya ere' re can elea ar' ta naa de a' lye a' help he` reach ta," Eternus replied, watching as Twilight took one last look at the castle and the moon before the carriage took off to her final destination, "Amin must auta sii' Philomena ten' i' nightmare has reawakened ar' re will anta help e' i' Tulien trials. Amin heart shall Nia tenna' amin elea lle au', iant Mellon" He said spreading his wings wide, ready to take flight.
Philomena spread her wings as well, but instead of joining Eternus in flight she performed a small bow, "Namaarie, amin aran. Amin wish lle i' best en' marth e' i' reunitien en' i' ithil. Tenna' ento lye omenta ar' Lotesse i' sul en' change always be ie' lle n'alaquel"
With that said the silver phoenix took off towards the castle of the two sisters, ready to reunite with an old friend; And destroy a Nightmare

Uhh. wut?
7856465 talking about the comments? or the chapter?
Looks like it could be interesting. Although I'm left wondering why there's a human tag on it.
7857571 it's a surprise! Though to be honest i kinda forgot that was there, but i do have a plan with it.
Looks interesting. Is twi gonna be the magical Phoenix warrior? Probably not, but still going in tracking. Keep up the good work.
7920810 I know. the paralysis moments will be expounded on in the next chapter. I'm mostly going with the fact that the paralysis hasn't started yet.
here are the symptoms.
~usualy have muscle tremors.
~may be so weak that they cannot stand up.
~lose control of their tongue so it may hang from their mouth.
~can't eat and they drool because they can't swallow.
~may walk stiffly with a short stride or they may be weak and stumble. Their tail may lose its tone.
I plan on having each encounter with the other five be a sign of the disease progressing.
7920810 and here is another fact.
I approve : )
7858648 i cant spoil anything but i work with the author from time to time and all i can say is maybe?
Right about to read this, but I want to know when this will be updated, as I see it is on hiatus.
8085951 next chapter is in the works but delayed cause my editor was having issues of his own.
should start ramping up soon.
8085994
Oh, okay. Thanks!
I read them, and they were pretty good, but nothing has really happened in the story yet, so they are a bit tedious to read just because of that. I do think it'll be much better when we get to the meat of the story, though.
8086035 might not get there as soon as you think as i have to go through the rest of the mane six, but i do have a baseline of their interactions, though small spoiler warning they have already met twilight, but she doesn't know them.
8086048
Ah, well it is still pretty enjoyable, right now, it just needs to pick up some speed. Whenever that happens, it will become more interesting.
8086616 if you want a better sneak peak on the upcoming chapter, want to give me a hand on the reactions the rest will have when they meet twilight 'again'.
8086640
Oh, I'm no writer, I don't know how to write in the perspective of a different person.
8087026 no worries. was just a suggestion. just out of curiosity who should I have twilight meet first? Just go with canon and have pinkie be first, or do something different?
8087069
Twilight won't meet Pinkie Pie, she'll meet Twilight first, honestly. She's sick so there needs to be an excuse for them to come to her.
8087166 good point, though, I think I'm gonna have her try and do her rounds even if she's sick. and yea pinkie is most definitely going to be the one to meet twilight instead of the other way around.
can not wait to see where you take this story... so far i am liking the idea. ^_^
Keep up the good work! ^_^
8090992 thanks.
i have a few ideas on where I'm going with this story, but nothing solid yet.
don't write in a made-up language, especially if you're just gonna provide a translation in the author's notes. Say that it's in a different language, then type it in english. This is really bad writing.
I wanted to show that the language was different.
I might do that when we get to later parts of the story.
And before you mention it, if you're confused about the next chapter, I tried to make it like a memory buried within a nightmare.
