Chapter 5 - Regrets

Celestia looked at the grandfather clock to her left with annoyance. "Where is she, I told her to be down here 10 minutes ago!" Celestia shook her head as she shifted in her chair.

"Be patient. She needs some time, and after what I heard I think anypony would need a couple of minutes," Spike said with a scowl.

Celestia cringed and looked away in shame. "I know I should have been calmer and more forgiving, but she is studying necromancy," she sighed "and I still haven't forgave them for what they did," Celestia said under her breath.

"Do you know that for sure though, and what if she has a good reason to study it?" Spike asked still having the same scowl as before.

"There is no good reason to studdy necromancy," Celestia spat. She then stood up and turned torwards the stairs. "I'm going up to check on her," she looked at spike with a small smile "And I promise to be gentler with her, okay?"

"Fine, but I'm going up there with you. I still don't fully trust you with Twilight yet."

Celestia bowed her head in shame and said in a very quiet voice "As you should." Within seconds Celestia had regained her composure and was standing up tall.

"Let's go," Celestia said to Spike. Spike ran up to Celestia's side and walked up the stairs with her. When they got to. Twilight's door they both took a deep breath.

"You first princess," Spike said looking up at Celestia with a small smile.

"Okay," Celestia took another deep breath, she has been dreading this moment for the last 5 minutes.

Celestia raised her voice and yelled in a gental tone "Twilight, It's me Celestia. I want you to know I'm not disappointed or angry," Spike raised an eyebrow but Celestia ignored him "but woried. Necromancey is an evil, evil thing, and I don't want you to turn to the darkness." She took a shaky, deep breath "I've all ready seen my sister fall. I can't, no won't, see another pony I care for fall to darkness." Celestia looked over at Spike, who gave her a small smile, and gave him a nod. "Your turn," she said quietly.

"Twilight," he said in a carrying tone of voice "It's me, Spike, and I want to make sure you know that I care and love you and that I want the best for you. Can we come in, or if you just want me that's fine to."

Celestia looked at Spike with a disbelieving look. He ignored her and just looked at the door waiting for an answer. Celestia and Spike stood there outside of Twilight's room anxiously waiting for a response, but none came.

"Twilight?" Spike said "You in there?" Still no response.

Celestia spoke up "If you don't speek right this instant Twilight we will come in uninvited," still no response.

"We are coming in now." Celestia said as she reached for the door handle. She opened the door and gasped as she looked into the Twilightless room.

"No!" She yelled as she ran into the room. Spike just stood there with an unbelieving face. His eyes were moving all around the room, but they kept drifting back torwards the open window.

His eyes suddenly filled with fury "You!" He yelled at Celestia. Celestia looked back at Spike with shock. "You made this happen! You made Twilight leave! This is your fault! Because of you I-" Spike dropped to his knees "-will not be able to see T-Twilight ever again." Spike began to cry.

"Spike, I-" Celestia began but was cut off by a suddenly very angery dragon.

"SHUT UP!" Spike yelled at the princess "THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE! YOU MADE TWILIGHT LEAVE! I HATE YOU MORE THEN ANYTHING ELSE IN THE WORLD!" Spike ran out of the room, tiers of both anger and sadness falling from his eyes.

Celestia stood still, looking at her hooves. Streems of tiers fell from her eyes and landed on the ground at her feet. 'What have I done?' Celestia thought over and over again 'What have I done?'


Celestia walked into her sister's large bedroom in Canterlot. Luna looked over at Celestia, still half asleep. "How did the vist to Twilight's go?" Luna asked tiredly as she stretched on the bed.

"Aweful," Celestia said as she walked over to Luna's bed. When she got there she sat down next to Luna and began to cry. "I made Twilight leave. She ran away Luna, she ran away." Celestia said, her eyes filling up with tears.

"WHAT!?" Luna yelled "What do you mean 'ran away'?"

Celestia began to cry even harder "I mean, ran, ran away. After I told her about the the news and how she would no longer be a princess, I gave her 20 minutes to pack up and get ready to leave," she took a shaky breath to try and calm herself "After a half an hour Spike and I went upstairs to check on her." A sobbed escaped her Celestia's mouth "But she wasn't there." Celestia looked over at Luna who had moved over to sit next to her older sister. "And the worse part is that I don't even know if she was doing anything wrong. Maybe she came to the same conclusion as us and thought that there are necromancers on the mountain and was just studying necromancy to know what she was up against."

"I let anger and a three thousand year old hatred drive my emotions," she turned her gaze to her hooves in disgust .

Luna sat in though for a couple of seconds before saying "You know, if I was the one who told her then things would have been a lot worse. We both hate necromancers because of what they have done to us," she sighed "Let's just try and right the wrongs of the past, okay dear sister?"

Celestia looked over at Luna. "Yes, let's fix this," she stood up with a determined look on her face "We have to."


Twilight looked up at the beutiful, star filled night sky. She was laying down on a blanket she brought with to try and make sleeping atleast a little bit more bearable. Next to her was her saddlebags filled with all of her possessions.

Twilight was crying. She was all alone, betrayed, and with no ware or no one to turn to.

Twilight cried herself to sleep that night. It was her first day away from her home, and she hated it. She couldn't go back home though so she just had to deal with it for the time being. Little did she know that very soon she would be meeting some new ponys with a very special set of talents.
