The Sheltered Princess

by Applefai


It begins

    The curtain rose completely as the lights dimmed and the crowd fell silent, the spotlight shines on Twilight as Celestia began to narrate..

    "Once there was a beautiful princess who was loved throughout the land for her golden heart and her bright smile, but was hard to have a real conversation with because of the way she thinks, her mother had secluded her from the horrors of the world, so all she saw was the good." Celestia started as music from Trotkovsky
startled to play and Twilight starred to dance.

    "She didn't know the horrors of war, not the darkness of ponies' hearts." Celestia
continued as Applejack and Rainbow Dash came out representing the things she had said. Among the crowd Windy Whistles was tearing up at seeing her daughter on stage with her husband Bow Hothoof taking a picture without the flash.
   
   After a series of pirouettes and other ballet moves the lights faded and the curtain closed for Twilight to get prepared for her solo. 

     The cast all went backstage to help Twilight get in the bubble, she pressed in managing to climb inside without it popping, Twilight got back in position as the rest of the cast stood in the wings and watched as the curtain rose and Celestia began to narrate again.

     "The princess saw the world through rose colored glasses, to her there was gray area, she could make the best of every situation and just see one side, the good side, she was so shelthered from the world that she was in her own little world, a bubble if you would." Beethooven's Für Elise played as Twilight started to dance, she floated above the crowd who were all stuck in awe and bewilderment as she performed for them not giving her stage fright a second thought. Twilight finished her performance as she picked up Flurry Heart as she let out a giggle and Twilight eskimo kissed her nose. After returning Flurry to Cadence and returning on stage, the bubble popped a mimed gasp escaped Twilight as the curtain fell and the lights brightened.
