//------------------------------// // Chapter 1 // Story: Maybe for the last... // by Fat1thatyoulove //------------------------------// Maybe once you do Chapter 1 – Maybe for the Last Its been five days since you got your memories back. Each day has and still continues to bring more and more thoughts about times that have come and gone, some things are still cloudy and some things still make you wish they had stayed forgotten. But throughout the day you push these ideas back anytime they surface which makes sleep a little hard as all the held back things throughout the day are allowed to move from their cages...You stare blankly at the wood grain in front of you as you think over the last few days, but your self centered thinking is changed as the little filly who happily runs diaperless around the library decides its your turn to be bothered. "...Violet come here." Twilight tries to hold a stern face to the filly but as she gets closer Violet happily gallops away. You trace after her with your eyes in a smile as you clear your mind with one last thought...the nights maybe lost but the day is still mine. You call out to Violet in a low voice as you stand from your chair, "Violet you're not going outside if you don't put anything on." The little filly slows her gallop as she allows Twilight to scoop her up. The mare won't let you have the motionless win as she adds her own requirement, "And your not going out without your boots." Violet wiggles her legs a little as shes floated into the air and the diaper is slid up her back legs, "We need to start potty training soon don't we? Like a big filly right?" You give a little chuckle as you motion your head to Violet, "Don't you think thats a little too fast?" Violet gives a smile as Twilight slowly lowers her back to her hooves. The little filly only stays in one spot for a moment before she starts her playful hopping around the library. Twilight gives a giggle as she walks back towards the stairs, "No, shes already about three months old?" You nod your head with a little hint of sadness as you think over her comment, ponies grow fast... Twilight calls back from the stairs as she continues her ascent, "I'm going to get her boots." You nod to her as you watch the little filly continue her aimless gallop around the library. You can't help but chuckle a little as you listen to her little hooves clap against the floor. Over the last few days Violet has started to no longer abide by her old rules, if shes left in her high chair after shes done eating she now will just teleport herself from it; and neither you or Twilight want to worry about her messing her spell up so you two have started to just let Violet get away with a little more. But that doesn't make it any easier as you two now have to make sure the front door is locked, shes still too small to reach the door but her magic has no limit. After only a few minutes of her playing Violet gives a little yawn as she starts to slow her round about gallop down to a trot. She must have realized she's already gone everywhere in the house and she now no longer sees a point in her gallop as she now trots staring at the larger bookshelf around her. Her loss of excitement is short lived as she turns her happy face to a knock at the door. You on the other hand don't share her happiness as you listen to the hoof again knocking on the door behind you. Now that you have your memories back a simple knock at the door sends a slight shiver up your spine. "...Could you get that?" Twilight's voice calls down from up stairs and you're snapped out of your slightly frozen stance as you call back, "Ya." You shake the thoughts back as you reassure yourself, nothing to worry about...i'll just light it on fire if I need to. With the thought in mind you place a friendly smile across your face as you unlock the door and open it. "Finally! Trying to make me freeze my feathers off?" You shrug as you step aside, "Wouldn't have to worry about being cold if you would move the clouds." You give a smug smile to Rainbow as she glares at you, "Oh ya? Tell me have you ever tried a hoof to the snot Cheesy Heart?" You roll your eyes as you close the drafty door, "Don't remind me." Rainbow gives a laugh as she stretches her wings in the warm house, "Hey Twilight you ever get a letter back from Celestia about these clouds?!" Rainbow's tomboyish call is not really the best thing to hear in the morning but you ignore it as you talk, "Did Rarity ever get that stuff for Sweetie?" She nods to you as she listens to Twilight's answer, "No Celestia didn't get back with me." You bring your head up to the stairs as Twilight's voice gets a little louder. She hoovers the dark purple boots above her as she makes her way down the stars with Spike "...And that’s strange, you said its not just Ponyville right Rainbow?" "Pff, just Ponyville? Ha these things are all over. Heck even Cloudsdale had trouble getting rid of there clouds." Rainbow averts her eyes to the happy filly expelling a happy wheezing sound in front of her. Rainbow's voice lightens up a little as she scoops her up and takes herself off the ground, "...But we don't have to worry do we wheezy? If that big bad storm comes back you will just get rid of it won't ya?" Twilight gives a little giggle as she watches her friend playing with Violet, "Well she can't say no...not with the hoofing books we got. These outdated things don't even have the alphabet they only have phrases." You think over her words for a moment as you flop your right ear a little, "Well it can't be too hard to find something with the twenty six letters." Twilight squints at your comment as she talks, "There's forty letters?" You blink at her for a moment as you think, well at least my ears will get a muscle. Rainbow stops her carrying of Violet as she places her on the ground, "Alright I should probably get going." She places Violet to the floor as she lands herself, "Twilight i'll be around Applejack's in case you get that letter." Spike gives a slight laugh as he talks, "Celestia probably is n..-" His cheeks puff out a little as he brings his claws to his mouth, in a moment his flamy belch shoots out a letter. He coughs a little as Twilight floats the letter to herself, "...I hate it when i'm talking." "Alright, what's it say Twilight?" Rainbow picks herself from the ground as she darts to her friends side. Twilight studies the letter for a moment a little confused as she talks, "All it says is for me and my friends to come to Canterlot immediately?" Everyone in the room looks at each other a little confused but the moment doesn't last long as the letter is rolled up by Twilight's magic, "Ok everypony, you heard Celestia. Rainbow go tell everypony I need to get packed for Violet." Rainbow nods her head as she dashes out of the library. Twilight floats the boot back up the stairs as she talks, "So much for these." "Wait." You follow after her as you talk, "That's it? She just wants us to come up right now?" Spike scratches his head as he talks, "Ya that doesn't make any sense? She didn't even say anything about the clouds?" Twilight turns herself as she hovers Violet's boots into the next room, "Celestia wouldn't had called us to Canterlot if it wasn't anything important...so its best to just get there soon." You give a sigh as you think over her words, ya that's what i'm afraid of...you take yourself off of the stairs as you turn back to the little filly trying her best to follow after you two up the stairs. You scoop her up as you start up the stairs. Spike follows behind you as he talks, "Wait you're going?" You give a little laugh as you talk, "Celestia said friends right? I think I more then count." You stop your voice as you enter the room in thought, not like I was going to stay anyways. Twilight is quickly jotting something down on a piece of paper as she looks up to you and Spike, "I'll try and tell my parents that we are going to Canterlot." She hovers the letter to Spike as she talks, "Spike could you please send this and then get ready?" Spike wraps his claws around the letter as he talks in an excited voice, "I get to go?" Twilight gives a little giggle as she nods, "Spike your my oldest friend, why wouldn't you?" He nods his head as he leaves the room. You trot over to the bed as you place the now wiggling filly onto it. You hold your thoughts back as you talk in a light hearted voice, "You can tell your parents I got my memories back...I don't want Night Light tying me up or anything." She gives a giggle as she hovers a brush over to Violet's mane. You follow her light laugh as you walk over to the window, you trace the world outside as you look over the still dark clouds above as you study there slight swirling. Your breath blurs the glass as you continue to look out it. “Lets not take too long...” End of chapter 1
