//------------------------------// // Griffon the Brush-Off // Story: My Little Backstage: Off-Screen is Magic // by RainbowFlash96 //------------------------------// Gilda slammed the paper onto her kitchen table, the front page covered in claw scratches. She was fed up with ponies always spreading friendship and happiness. Now the stake had hit her right in the heart, for on the front page was the Elements of Harmony with Princess Celestia and the re-born Princess Luna. Rainbow Dash, Gilda's old buddy back in flight school, was smack in the middle of the picture. It was true they had grown apart since Dash started hanging around that weak yellow one. "What was her name? Shutterfly maybe?" Gilda picked the paper back up out of curiosity. Her name was in fact, Fluttershy, and upon being incorrect, Gilda threw the paper out of her window. The paper then proceeded to hit a pony in the head which eventually lead to the second great Pony-Griffon War. Many ponies and griffon would die during those ten years. Foals would be left without parents, the only way to survive would be to fend off of the land. Gilda did not realize what she had just inflicted upon her grandchildren, who would eventually become generals and lead the griffon race to their ultimate defeat. Her grandchildren would go down in history as the destroyers of the griffon race as they knew it. They would die honorably in battle however, never having children of their own causing the house of Gilda to cease. "Maybe I can go mooch off some money from Dash." And with that, Gilda made her way to Ponyville and effectively ended her family legacy all in the same day.
