Hardy headed towards his mother’s grave, it was close to home so his aunt and uncle knew where he was. He had flew over and landed in front of his mother’s grave, it was very simalar to Bellamena’s grave, a carefully hand-made rock marker in the shape of his mother sitting and smiling on top of a slab that reads ‘Here lies Chilly, a caring sister, mother, and daughter. Taken too soon.’ The young colt gave a soft sigh and wiped away a few tears.
“Mom, it’s me, Hardy. I have something to tell you, in case you aren’t aware, one of Rose's best friends, Bellamena had died, she had suffered the same fate you had when I was a baby. She was killed by dad, this time however, he was caught and thrown into solitary confinement, he should’ve been already locked up but he had already covered up all the evidence and lied about it. I’ve told aunt Red, uncle Frostblaze, and Rose, but I have yet to the Pie Family. Tell grandma and grandaddy. I love them and I miss them.” He said, then he flew towards the Pie Rock Farm, his aunt and uncle are friends with the Pie Family.
The colt landed close to the entrance of the farm. He looked at Bellamena’s grave, it was simalar to his mother’s grave, except the writing on the slab and the statue were different. He could feel a warm breeze, as if he heard Bellamena’s voice telling him to tell her family what they weren’t aware of. He nodded and walked towards the rock path leading to the farm house where Pinkie had grew up in. As he made his way towards the house, he could hear Pinkie’s older sister, Octavia, practicing her cello for her concert in Hoofington.
“Wow, Octavia plays the cello beautifully, I wish her the best at her next concert.” He thought to himself as he stopped outside the house. He took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Pinkie’s mother, Cloudy Quartz had opened the door and smiled.
“Surely, thy name isn't Hardy?” Cloudy asked.
“Yes, I'm Chilly's son...” He said
“Please enter our abode.” She said, beckoning him to come inside. She then gestured to the living room and went away to find her husband, and her daughters.
“Pinkamena, Octavia, we've got company.” She called out and went towards the living room. Hardy had sat down on a chair, it was made out of rock but it was comfortable. Cloudy sat down across from Hardy her daughters and husband entered soon after, Pinkie and Octavia each sat next to the young colt. Their father, Igneous Rock, had sat next to his wife. Hardy waved to the Pie sisters and their father. They waved back with a small smile. Sparkling had cleared his throught and taken a deep breath before exhailing.
“I’m sorry to interupt all of you, but there’s something you aren’t aware of.” He paused and looked at the Pie Family, they looked at each other confused, before looking back at Smudger.
“As you might know, what had happened to Bellamena, but there is something else that you haven’t been told. I had witnessed Bellamena’s death. If the four of you are wondering why I didn’t tell you earlier, I was just an infant.” Cloudy let out a gasp and covered her mouth with her hoof. Octavia did the same thing, Pinkie and her father’s jaws had dropped.
“You see, that colt, who had taken the life of Bellamena away, he is my father.” He said, hanging his head in shame.
The Pie family had gasped at the shocking news, they were speechless.
“T-the Colt is your father?” Pinkie stammered, as she looked at Hardy. He nodded and Pinkie looked at him.
“He also killed my mother and cut off her lower torso and made her into a cupcake.” He said. Mrs. Pie and Octavia had gasped again. The Pie Family had been shocked about what Sparkling had said.
“I-I had promised to tell my mother and Bellamena about this, I told my aunt, uncle and cousin about this. My mother’s name was Chilly.” He said.
“I-I tried to free her, but I wasn’t strong enough.” He said wiping a few tears away.
“I-I’m so sorry, I’ll never forgive myself.” He said before hanging his head in shame.
"Hardy, you had comforted me when I needed support, you made the words, I’m sorry appear out of thin air, offered me a hug, and gave me a shoulder to cry on. You should forgive yourself, it's not your fault. Pinkie said, hugging him and giving him a shoulder to cry on.
“You may be related to him but you're not him.” Octavia added as her mother and father nodded in agreement.
“We give our condolences and tis indeed sorrowful for our famly and yours." Cloudy said.
“We'd made thy mother a grave like our own daughters.” Igneous added.
Hardy waved goodbye to the Pie Family and headed down the rocky path towards the spot where Bellamena’s grave was. He stopped in front of her grave and hugged the gravestone.
“I'll reunite you with your family soon.” He then went home behind the house where his mother’s grave was. He smiled before gently placing some artifical roses over his mothers grave.
“I love you mom will all my heart.” He said before hugging his mother’s grave.
