//------------------------------// // Prologue:The Tragic Lost // Story: The Loneliest Star // by Blueelectric //------------------------------// Manehatten, one year earlier, midnight. A pale blue skin man ran through the street, carrying a little six year old white skinned girl with long golden yellow hair with blue and purple streaks. You can't even tell that the little girl was even white in the first place as her skin is covered in all sorts if dirt and grime, making her look brown. The only clothing she was wearing was a tattered blue dress. She and her father had been homeless ever sense her mother died giving birth to her. After that their life spiralled down hill, her father couldn't pay rent for their apartment. He paid all that he had on the cost of his wife's funeral and hospital bills. And he was fired from his job because the company he was working for was shutting down. For four years he's been on the streets with his only daughter, collecting cans, to provide for her. Even if it means fo him to not eat at all. He raid the cloths drop off station so he can get her something to wear. The daughter, is named Lucky Star. And now he is running from a gang who decided to ruin their lives for no reason. He looked behind him as he saw them running after them, armed with handguns and knifes. "Get back here, you hobo! I only want to play with that little girl of yours!" The leader sneered, while his friends laugh. Lucky and her father was sleeping in a cardboard box when they heard them walked up to them. They mocked and ridiculed him until they spotted his daughter. The leader had a hungry look in his eyes and the man, feared for his daughter's safety, scooped her up and made a run for it. Lucky was wokened up and was clinging to her father, wailing in fear. She look back at the scary men, who was still in pursuit. She whimpered as she saw the scary look in their eyes. Her father spotted the train station and took up speed leaving the criminals behind. He jumped the fence and ran to the nearest train. He hoped on the cart and sighed with relief. He sat down on a pile of hay hugging Lucky in comfort. He gazed into her purple eyes who look up at him in fear. He rocked her back and forth trying to calm her down. "It's okay Lucky, they won't find us in hear." His head popped up as he heard voices up ahead. No. It can't be. Lucky look towards the door and cried in fear. "Daddy! The monsters found us!" She buried her face into his shirt whimpering. The man look at his daughter then at the train they were on. He look towards the door as he heard voices up ahead. He narrowed his eyes in determination. He can't let them thugs harm his daughter, not if he can help it. He heard more voices as he heard the conductor hopped on the engine. "Gonna take this load to Canterlot City." He heard him saying to somebody. With no moment to lose he laid his daughter on the hay pile. "I'm gonna need you to be a brave girl, alright?" Lucky look at him in confusement and fear. "Daddy?" "This train is gonna take you to a new safer place. But I'm not going with you." He continued. Lucky's eyes widened in shock. Her father's yellow eyes start to tear up. "I'm sorry that I failed you. I hope that whoever found you will shower you with all the love in the world and will raise you right." And with that he got up to made his way to the door as the train started up. He look back at his daughter one last time with a single tear drop running down his face and hopped off as the train started to move forward. Lucky ran to the door. "Daddy! Don't leave me!" She screamed but the train's horn blurted out her cries. The train moved on leaving the city behind as Lucky continued to scream. She slumped on the hay in defeat knowing that she would never see him again. And unknown to her, to never to see him alive again as the gang showed up and shot him after the train left. She hold her dirty blanket and cried her heart out until she fall into a pitiful sleep. ********* She woke up as the train slowed and finally stopped. She poked her head out of the cart and look back and forth. On one end she spotted a city not to far from the station with a beach next to it. Lucky grabbed her blanket and jumped off the cart, landing on soft grass. She look back and forth. Finding that the coast is clear, she took off towards the city. She ran until she made herself towards the the outskirt of the city. She slowed into a stop to catch her breath. She look up at the sky watching the clouds covered the sun and started to gray. She flinched as a single raindrop landed on her head. Then more followed after, soaking the poor girl after. Needing to find shelter, she ran along the streets until she made herself towards the beach. She paused as she spotted an abandoned beach house up ahead. She ran towards it and discovered that it looks abandoned for along time. She look around until she spotted nobody and made her way up the creaky steps. She opened the the door and stepped inside. She sneezed as the dusty smell of the building. She decided then and there to make this place her new home. She laid her blanket on the floor even it out to make it a place for her to sleep. She look around to find herself in the living room and found an old dusty sofa in one corner. She walked up to it and dust it off. When she was finished she place her blanket on it, deciding to sleep on it instead. She walked up to a window and watched the rain poured down. She decided for know on, the only person she needed to rely on was herself. One year later, It's been a year now since she was alone and survived by stealing food from the people who decided to spend their day on the beach. She only steals when they decided to play in the ocean. She haven't always been successful, however, running away when she saw the family coming back to their spots. She always went to bed hungry when she fail every time. In cold months, she went into the city to find some scraps in the dumpsters. Lucky remembered one night she was at the park and noticed some high school students on the stage, starting a concert. Deciding to watch, she sat down away from them watching three girls walked on the stage with green fog covering them. Then the song got intense and find herself entranced by the girls singing as they suddenly grew wings, ears, and long ponytails. Then another band came on top of a hill. A girl in a white car showed up and turned the car into a giant DJ set. The girls sing, breaking Lucky's entrancement. Then suddenly three large sea monsters came out of the girls' gems and and circle the crowd above. Both bands threw magic back at each other. The monsters screamed knocking the mic from a purple girl's hand. She reached out at a yellow skinned girl. "Sunset Shimmer! We need you!" Sunset took the mic and walk towards the monsters in determination. She took of her jacket and started to sing. The purple girl sing with her, throwing a rainbow at the monsters, making the girls controlling them off balance. Sunset float up as she got ears and longer hair as well. The others float up with her, making a rainbow shot from them. Lucky's eyes widen in shock as the rainbow made a giant winged unicorn. The unicorn blasted the monsters, making them shattered along with the three girl's gems. They started to sing again but the song come out awful. The crowd booed and threw food at them making them run off the stage. Lucky took the time to get up and ran. She ran until she made it to the tree lines. She stopped and panted leaning against a tree. She jumped as she heard some one walk behind her. She turned around and find the same three girls walking towards her. Her heart skipped a beat as the first girl, who had yellow skin and poofy orange hair paused and stared at her. Her magenta eyes widened in surprise. Not a minute to lose, Lucky flee and made a beeline towards the beach. She heard footsteps coming towards her and look back to find the three girls in pursuit. Not again! she thought in dismay. Lucky, not looking where she's going, yelped in pain as she tripped and fell in a bramble bush. She winced as she looked down her legs, noticing the thorns scratched up her legs pretty bad. She tried to get out finding herself stuck. She looked up and noticing the three girls paused. They walk closer to her, the leader's eyes filled with pity. "Sonata. Go to the park shed and find some bush clippers. Aria go with her." They both nodded leaving her alone. The girl walked up to her and knelt down to her level. Lucky whimpered in fear. "Don't worry little one. I'm here to help."
