//------------------------------// // Chapter 4 Prism Shine // Story: A Different View // by Polaris Solarmoon //------------------------------// Chapter 4 Prism Shine Hello everypony, I am Dianne Pie and with me is my friend Prism Shine, say hello Prism. "Hello..." I had said in utter confusion, I didn't have any clue as to whom she was talking to. "Now then Prism,are you ready to tell us-err,me your backstory?"Dianne asked me. "A-are you sure this is a good idea,Dianne?"I had said nervously. "Of course,go ahead and tell me your backstory Prism. I promised you that I was going to listen to it, so do not worry." Dianne says in an attempt to reassure me. "o-okay, I'll do it...."I said in a more calm tone. Um,where do I begin...m-my name is Prism Shine and I am very shy,I'm not sure what to say about my past so please bare with me... I remember having went to Flight Camp....,um I-I wasn't the best flyer around but I tried my best,some of the campers made fun of my poor flying skills and they sometimes called me names but I didn't really listen to them,oh I know it wasn't nice of them to make fun of me but I couldn't really say anything because I was too shy. One time I came across this really mean bully that almost always picks on me,he'd mostly make fun of my poor flying but sometimes he would try to race me,knowing that I'd lose and I've tried to tell him no multiple time but he kept insisting on it. I remember when he even pushed me a few times and to make things worse nopony stops him in fear of being bullied themselves, so the bullying continued until one day... "Ha, Ha, what a loser." "P-please leave me alone...,if that's ok with you.."I had said trying to avoid the bully that was teasing me. "Pah ha ha ha, wow your pathetic aren't you?" he had said He then says "Your so weak a flyer, I bet a chicken could beat you in a race" I then hear someone yell out,"Hey, leave her alone!" That voice!,it was of Fluttersky or as she's now called Phoenix Firewing, I didn't know her at that time, but I was happy that she came to help me,Fluttersky is the best flyer out of eveypony in Flight camp, she was very popular at the time so having her stand up for me was very surprising,she had even introduced herself to me and I was even more surprised. The bully wasn't amused and said,"Oh yeah what are you gonna do about it,eh Fluttertree?" She looked upset for a bit but then she calmed down, she then challenged the bully to a race, which he accepted and the three of us went to the practice course that we were going to use for the race. When we got there I noticed that some of our campmates were there too, probably to cheer on Fluttersky. I had to hold the starting flag but I was scared,("what if she loses") I thought to myself while I got ready to start the race. "Ok on your marks, get set,G-AAAAAAHHHHH!" Right when I said go,I had gotten spun around and then I fell off the cloud that I was standing on,I was very scared and had closed my eyes while I was falling,I then heard a loud noise,All of a sudden I felt something grab me and I had opened my eyes and found out that Fluttersky had saved me, she told me to hold on and then we returned back to Flight Camp, she put me down she then flew upwards and then she opened up her wings which made this beautiful birdlike image and then I noticed that she had finally slowed down and landed next to me. I then heard her say,"Never again." which had me confused but I didn't mind. I saw the bully go up to her and apologize for picking on me,he then called Fluttersky "Phoenix" then left. We had went our separate ways after saying goodbye to each other,I had decided to leave Flight Camp and start living on the ground,I found a nice cottage to live in. While there I had met Fluffy, she's a cute little tortoise that likes to ride on my back, I often don't leave home without her unless she's sleeping, but my cutie mark didn't come from animal care, it came from my other personalities, you see, I have two other ponies in my mind who sometimes say things that I don't normally say or like, but I don't want to say anything more about that. I still remember that day in Flight Camp,and I always wonder,"What if I was the brave one and Fluttersky was shy?" I giggle to myself then say,"no, that would be weird". "I guess that's all I could tell you Dianne, what do you think?"I asked her only to get no response from her. "Dianne?"I asked again only to find out that she had fell asleep during my story. I had gotten very upset and I had yelled at her to wake up. "Huh?, Oh no!, I'm so sorry,I didn't mean to fall asleep Prism Shine can you forgive me?"she says. "Of course Dianne,just don't fall asleep next time....,egghead."I had said in a joking manner. She responded in a monotone and said,"Don't call me that." "Okay sorry."I apologized than left. *Dianne Pie P.O.V.* "I have got to remind myself not to fall asleep during a story,this is the 4th time this week,oh well."I said after sighing "Hey Dianne,dinner is ready." I heard Aegis say, Oh him, he is my personal assistant and a good friend,I would never overwork him and he does what he can to help,I think he's older than all of us. "Thank you Aegis,I will be right there in a minute."I said. "Alright, just let me know when you're done with um, whatever it is that your doing."He says patiently. "Understood, Aegis how old are you?"I say while looking at my book. "Huh me?,I'm about 500 why?"he said clearly confused. "Oh nothing, just curious." I said while I was getting ready to put the book away. "Ok then,, I'll be upstairs if you need me."He said. ("Hmm 500 years old,I wonder..." )I thought to myself. "Hello Glitter Brightstar here, I just wanted to say that I can't wait to tell you guys my story,it'll be so much fun and I really want to throw a party for all of you but I don't think that could be possible at the moment but hey at least I tried right !? Bye!"*giggles then bounces away*
