//------------------------------// // (2) Celestia's Side // Story: The Phoenix's Family // by Script Singer //------------------------------// "I remember walking back from exploring the forest and getting some air." Celestia sighed. "I had felt an object landing on my head before landing on the ground." Philomena looked at Celestia with interest. "As soon as I picked it up, I heard a roar." she continued. "I turned around and found dragons chasing me. I held on tight to you, and ran for my life." "What happened next?" Philomena chirped. "I tried to shoot at the dragons with my magic, but missed at first. Out of instinct, I shot another beam, causing them to fly into the air." Philomena chuckled, imagining the dragons flailing into the air. "I continued walking home. Right when I opened the door, I grabbed a pillow and put you on top of it. I turned around about to walk away, but then I heard a cracking sound. I turned back and found you, you where the most adorable thing I had ever seen. I picked you up in my hooves, and fell in love with you right away." Philomena looked at the floor. "What do you think happened to the dragons?" she asked. "I don't know. They probably ran off." Celestia sighed. Philomena stared at the floor more. "Why don't you go and get some air?" Celestia asked. "Go clear your head. We can talk more later." "Sure." She flew to the window, but stopped for another question. "Remind me again how long it has been since you found me?" she asked. "Almost 6 years ago, why?" "Just wondering." Philomena flew out of the open window. She knew where she was going to go.
