//------------------------------// // My begining // Story: Harmony between two different melodies // by MylittleDashie //------------------------------// My story isn't something even I understand 100% and I lived it, for thousands of years i had been alone, fatted to die in the dundeons of canterlot, but now my fate has all but changed. But so that you will get a... Well better understanding of it all, I will start from what i can tell you of my begining. You see im almost as old as celestial herself, there's really only a 26 year difference between us, and as a matter of fact I'm an alicorn as well... But not like you'd think. I was birthed from a normal mare of a mother who loved everypony and everything... At least till I was born. My mother hated me and my father instantly the day of my arival, giving me no chance prove myself for her love, and all because of what and who my father was. He was the king of all changlings, and I had just become the prince making me just as guilty as he. We were trash that canterlot had no intentions of keeping.  I was all but abandoned by my mother. Though my father, even knowing that me Being half pony would keep me from taking his place on the thrown, had done everything in his power to save me before he died. But his attempts had failed as I was not saved by him I was not saved at all.  I would love to tell you alot more than this but its all i know. I was Kept in the canterlot dungons for years. I had watched as the changling race became nearly extinced, the fall of nightmare moon and her banishment, and years of life go flying out the window. It was not till Celestia herself came to visit the dungons were discored was kept to bring him up to use as a decor for her royal garden, that I had been released. Celestia had become guilty, for it was her fault I was imprisoned without reason. She disided then, after finding i was just as able as a 2 year old child, that it was her responsabillity to take care of me. This was the begining of my new life, Celestia had taken me in as her aprentice and (with the complacations of the gaurds thinking I had kidnapped her and was holding her hostage) I was out of the dongons to see the light once more. A hole year has past now and I can talk, eat (thats right being half pony alows me to eat food and have my appitite filled), and do other things on my own. Now Celestia wants me to shift into a youngling, so I could be accepted into magic kindergarden, witch on my behalf even in the state I am in, smarts of a 5 yr old, I felt its going to be disasterous. I know only how to change into my own form young and old, so becoming somepony else was out of the question for me. But Celestia thought it best I gone anyway. "But Celestia! I'm not like everypony else they won't like me" I said. "Oh, sweetheart you shall be fine you are of the royal castle they will treat you with respect, and you are not so different from anypony else I know" Celestia said. Is she trying to get me killed! "But only because I'm of the royal castle will they respect me, it doesn't mean they'll like me!" I cried, "and not different from anypony else you know?! look at me I'm riddled with holes and I have fangs! Tell me you know somepony like me!" "Than wear your boots my dear, they shall cover your holes till you feel comfortable with them." she argued, "Ive told you this before and you thought It a good Idea, did you not?"   "I did but now... I just don't think it will be a good idea," i said lowering my head. "But why the sudden change of heart marshall?" liftting my chin as she spoke. "is it because i told you what had happened to you?" "Celestia I'm a changling I don't belong." and with thoughs words said I began to sob. "Now now my child," she said pulling me into a hug, "I know of no changling with such an extatic purple mane color, nor a beatiful coat of white, just because your part does not mean you are to be called changling. You are a very special somepony I promise you that, and I love you holes and all" she began rocking me gently and then humed my favorite mellody, waiting till my soft crys died away to speak again.  "Now your going to be late, here's your lunch and your saddle bag," she said, "Norman will take you to school today and will stay close by to make sure you are safe, ok?" Norman is always nice to me even when celestias not around, unlike that snooty royal guard captian charcoal mane. "i guess thats ok," i said with a shy smile and a sniff. "Good," she planted a kiss on my forehead as she talked, "Now go, Norman is waiting outside for you. "Yes ma'am, good bye I love you" turning as a said my farewells and began hopping to the door. Before slipping out the door I pulled on my boots with heave of magic, waved one last time and left, feeling better about starting my first day of school. Norman bowed his head as he said, "master Marshall are you ready to go?" there was a short pause in witch we stared at eachother till we broke into laughter. "norm I so hope you don't plan on doing that through out today, because that'll be more embarresing than having holes in my body!" I got threw my giggles. Once he had gaind control over his laughter he spoke, "Oh come on your royalty that's how your supose to be treated in public, and plus how is having holes in your body embarassing I find it rather awesome!" "sure whatever Norman," I said with a fangful smile, "hey do you mind if we stop by the store before we go?" Norman looked at his watch and cursed. "Not if were going to make it in time, you don't want to be late now." I chuckled, for he was just like Celestia, "Norman I don't have to be to school for a hole hour." I rolled my eyes he smiled that mischevious smile that only ment one thing he wasn't talking about school, "School who said we were late for school?" he reach behind him pulling out two tickets to the wonder bolts!, "I don't think Celestia will mind if you skip one day, do you?" I let out a shreek of joy, nope I wasn't going to miss this for the world.
