A Path Not Meant to Be

The Remaining few

"How interesting. Maybe this turn of events will work in our favor?"

"Maybe. But I wouldn't count on it."

"And why not? The shift in powers could create a large enough distraction that they might just leave and forget about us."

"The storm that Blizzard made has worn out. They have no reason to postpone the ceremony further."

"Well what if they stopped caring? With this new alicorn, the ponies will probably prance all the way back across the mountains and leave us alone."

"And what it they don't? Ponies are very stubborn creatures, set in their ways of harmony and order. There is no room for hate in their loving society."

"What if there are more like the purple unicorn? What was her name, Starshine Glitter or something like that? What if there are others who hate as much as her?"

"I doubt it. Sparkleshine there was probably the oddball out. She was probably the only one."

"I guess you're right."

"Don't get me wrong, I wish I wasn't."

"How did our ancestors get survive so well?"

"The fighting of the three tribes before they were united fueled them for decades after the feud had ended."

"I meant the ones before Snowfall Frost provided everybody with more hate then we could take in."

"Right. Well, ponies had skirmishes every now and then and some disliked each other just as much as they liked other ponies. They're very peculiar like that."

"And what about now? How come we're so well fed with no ponies around?"

"We hate each other. It provides us with less energy, but enough. Now I think it's time for you to sleep, my child."

"But I don't wanna go to sleep. I want to stay up and watch the new princess."

"Alright, but be careful. I don't want them to find you."

"Okay, mom. I'll be careful."

"I wish you didn't have to be but the fire is too deadly."
