Storms and shadows

Storm at Twilight

Twilight was sleeping on her bed in the hospital wing when a fierce storm arose. The clap of thunder split the night sky and the lightning gave the clouds a silver lining. Twilight was sleeping through the storm and was caught in a nightmare from which she thought she couldn't escape. The second clap of thunder caused Twilight to awake with a blood curdling scream of terror. Shining Armor ran to Twilight and gave her a big hug saying" it is alright little sis, I got you." When he finished telling her this, she looked at him with her eyes full of terror. After he looked into her eyes, her eyes began to glow white while her body instead of the usual lavender color, she glowed a deep dark blue almost like the night sky. Twilight told him in a voice withered and raspy" Tonight as the bell tolls midnight, A pony will be killed in Ponyville. An unspeakable terror has been unleashed in Equestria by an evil sorcerer."
Celestia, Luna, Her parents arrived to see the entire conversation. Shining Armor ordered his guards to move out immediately to Ponyville to protect the citizens. He told Luna" I need you to stay with Twilight and make sure she doesn't go back to sleep please." Luna replied " I will do as you ask, Shining Armor. I will need to speak with you once you get back. Shining Armor went out in the hall and began to weep in earnest. Celestia saw him weeping and asked what was wrong. Shining Armor replied" Twilight had such terror in her eyes when she looked at me and it broke my heart to know that what was causing her so much terror I can't help her." Celestia saw all the truth in his words and gave him two very special gifts. Her first gift to him was peace of mind for his sister and making her immortal along with her friends. Her second gift was making him an alicorn like Luna and her were. Shining Armor flew to Ponyville and landed. As soon as he landed, he heard a second blood curdling scream and ran to the source. It was a young filly who had just seen her mother killed in front of her. Shining Armor led the filly away from the scene and got her to the Ponyville hospital. The doctors did several tests and the filly went into shock. The filly looked at him with the same look of utter terror as his sister. The monster or whatever it was was making him very angry.
With these feelings of anger, hatred, frustration, and rage made him receive chaos powers as well. He too also got a second cutie mark. His second mark was a yin yang symbol. This meant he had the pony power and he had chaos power. This made him twice as powerful. He stayed with the filly until she is up and done with the tests. Shining Armor noticed that the filly was an alicorn pony. He took her back with him to Celestia and Luna. When they arrived back at the castle, Shining Armor called the princesses for a meeting. When they arrived they noticed a filly cowering behind him. They asked " Who is this little one here?" Shining Armor replied" Twilight was right, a pony did die tonight as she foretold. This little one was the victim's daughter. I called you here because of the filly. She is an alicorn like you." The little filly stepped out from behind him. The princesses were very shocked. The filly was dark blue like Luna but had a mane and tail that glistened like real silver in the moonlight or sunlight.
The princesses asked her name. The filly replied" I am Twilight Shimmertail." Could I ask you your names? Celestia replied" I am Princess Celestia, princess of the sun." Luna replied next" I am Princess Luna, princess of the moon.". When the filly learned that they were princesses, she bowed so low that she fell on her face. Twilight rose up quickly and she blushed so bad. The princesses let Twilight choose who she decides to sleep in the same room with. Twilight chose Luna. Meanwhile Shining Armor made his way back to his sister.
