> Letters... > by Moustache Queen > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Letters... > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This story dedicated to all you Bronies and Pegasister's who showed me the light to happiness after years of darkness that haunted me ------------------Letters----------------- She was so powerful yet innocent to, she would often gaze at my eyes with admiration and wisdom, she would often panic when I point out a small mistake. She was so innocent...so Loyal... But she died, dead by my own hooves, I should of acted sooner, but I was weak. I thought she could overcome the threat, I was wrong....so WRONG I was only a few hoof steps away from her, I could of raced to her if I'd know what was to happen, she was in a lone cage of her own nightmares, I tired to call to her...but she couldn't hear me...she could only hear her worst nightmare... That nightmare....was Me...I never knew she was afraid of me...I thought she knew better than that... But of course, the past keeps entering my mind, the slaughter of the Chaos-Makers the banishment of my own kin, the trapping of the Griffion's Kingdom... I guess many Ponies fear me, I did kill many creatures in my past, I never gave mercy to any kind, now I wish I did. The voices of who I've killed haunt me in my dreams...even the little child I killed, she would often come into my dreams, not like the others who would shout and scream 'Why?!'. No this little child would just sit down and have tea with me... She would call herself Cotten, Discord's little sister, her bright blue eyes would always break me into tears, the little child would always sooth me, I know I deserve to die...but I can't...can't... For as long as the sun shall live...I shall never die... Who am I? I am Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria, the most feared ruler of all besides Discord... And I'm reading my Student's last letters...from her nightmare world she's trapped in.. -----------Letters---------- Dear Princess Celestia.. Why won't you come for me? Am I not near you? Am I close to you're presence? Should I keep walking? I feel the light taunting me saying 'you're so close Twilight' I will keep going Princess I have faith in you... The darkness is scary though...even though It holds me and protects me...I don't know why but I feel safer than ever before...or maybe it's just getting into my head..it keeps telling me your the threat! I will never leave your side Princess I have faith in you... Just please help me...I can't stand the darkness....it hurts...and warms my heart....I hate it.. Help me please.... Twilight Sparkle.. I cried as I read the first letter, I would often smash my bedroom door to pieces and throw the wooden shards off the castle tower and watch them fall, I wanted to help her...but I couldn't.. Where was she? She was in Tartarus...Hell you would like to call it.. But as I read the letter I never really believed Hell, could even protect you, was it true? Would Hell protect you just because you were misunderstood? If so I hoped Twilight would be in safe hooves, I hoped she would return to me.. She never did... Dear Princess Celestia.. I finally found light! I raced towards it and found a tall creature called Hades, he was grumpy at first saying something about 'Percy Jackson' I wanted to ask him why he was angry but he kept mumbling, slowly I calmed him down, but at my surprise he threw black fire at a large wall! I could never do that! Hades seems nice, if you ignore about 92% of the things he says.. He calmed down and showed me to his home! It's a dark gloomy castle it felt scary and cozy at the same time! Do you think Hades could come round Equestria sometimes...he seems pretty lonely as he described his 'Family' Can he come round Celestia? If I ever get out of the place called 'Tartarus' can he come round? Please! Twilight Sparkle I would always welcome Hades to Equestria from time to time, he did his best to keep Twilight alive in that horrible yet..cozy? Place. Hades would often come round and teach Unicorn's how to summon black fire or the dead, or even take some Fllies on trips to Tartarus... I couldn't believe how Twilight Spakle warmed up to The Lord of the dead's heart...he seemed so happy in Equestria...he still often visits Twilight's grave and talks to her ghost from time to time...but every time I try to talk Twilight would fade... I can't blame her....for four years she lived in Tartarus...it felt like days to her... And she didn't even know her friends died when she gave me her third letter... Dear Princess Celestia.. Hades showed me his wife! Her name is Persephone! She's sooooo cute and kind! She seems to argue with Hades from time to time, I would just step out of the room and let them argue, Hades also has a son called Nico! He's pretty cool if you ask me... He would often play a game called Run or Die with me, it's pretty fun! We would have to run for our lives from evil Skeletons! Besides Nico's grumpy mood swings he's pretty nice if you hang out with him! He often talks about Percy Jackson, who bathed in the River Stynx! Immortal! That's sooooo interesting! If I ever meet Percy Jackson I would love to study him for a while! I miss you princess...I know this a good place and all but I want to go home... I know your close to me aren't you princess? Twilight Sparkle I would often talk to Nico, he would rarely come to Equestria...because of me...he hated me...I knew it ever since I laid eyes on him... I still remember his eyes staring into my soul, his hunger to rip me apart and throw me to the undead would still haunt me, even today... Dear Princes Celestia... I left the house...I'm scared, Hades disappeared with Persephone and Nico...did they leave me? Did they hate me? I was so kind to them! No...they were kind to me as well....I have to have faith...just like you say princess....I have faith... I'm scared...the dead keep following me...eager to eat me...I'm so lucky that I have a horn...they hate light...but my horn won't last long... I'm scared Princess...and alone.... Help me....PLEASE I cried, I couldn't help her...I couldn't leave Equestria...if I did I would die in twenty seconds flat...Twilight still had faith in me...I still had faith in her.. I failed... Dear Princess Celestia... The dead showed me a misty vision......of you....you holding a little Griffion child....you ripped it's head off...did...did you really do that princess....did did YOU kill all of the Griffion Alliance? Did you kill Discord's kind? No....you can't of....what was I thinking?! Your a kind Princess... I could never believe you as a murder.... Twilight Sparkle... Her faith died on her last letter...I screamed as soon as I saw the last line...I burned the entire tower down...of course I erased the memories of my subjects who witnessed it and survived... I couldn't believe it....I couldn't believe it... She died.. Dear Murderer.. The Dead showed me everything....EVERYTHING YOU DONE! So me and my friends were just a weapon to you? Just to free your sister Luna? To stone Discord once more? To kill the only chance of survival for the Changelings? Are all the Ponies who looked up to you were just weapons? Was that it? Was I a WEAPON to you?! I should of listened to Discord...you were a monster... Even he had sense not to turn Ponies to stone... I hate you....I hate you.... YOU MONSTER I feel Hades grasp onto me...he tells me it is my time...I agree....I hate you Celestia... You are no Mentor of mine... That was her last letter....on the sixth year she had disappeared from Discord's radar...one letter per year...she died in Tartarus...so close to the exit.. But the Dead showed her the truth, and she did more than over react...I wish things had been different... So dear Human...if you read this now...you will now Princess Celestia has died...Queen Luna and Discord remain and lead. I hope they lead well... If you ever see Twilight...tell her I'm sorry... How am I dying? Dear Reader I want to die...I gave the sun to Luna...and Discord...both have a little orange in there mane or beard (Discord wants his beard to be purple though).......I want to die...I want my pain to end... I feel Tartarus closing on me now...I await for my trail... Thank you for listening...you deserve to know this Dear Reader....I Princess Celestia.... Was a murder...and a Princess... And it was true....
