It was on a calm sunny Saturday afternoon In the Aroure forest, or Everfree forest as you know it, a young filly was born. But not just any filly, she was the newest princess to the royal alicorn family. Of coarse, this is way before your generation, a time where alicorns were the most common type in the pony race. Anywho the new princess was a light blue alicorn with a brown mane and tail. Her eyes were a royal purple, there was also a red streak going down the bangs all the way to the tip of her mane. She had two older sisters. Celestia, the eldest who was four. And Luna, who was two. The three loved each other as soon as they made eye contact. The sisters' parents were Dreamcatcher, their mother, and Solar Orbit, their father. Because of the little blue alicorn's fiery, curious, trouble making, loving, and beautiful spirit, she was named Princess Brightfire.
----------------------------------------
"Boo!" Brightfire shouts jumping from behind the sun and moon statue, scaring Luna.
"Hey!" Luna pouts. "How do you keep on finding me!"
"Because I have a strong connection to my BSBFF!"
"Whaaaaaaaaa," Luna tilts her head in the puzzled way she almost always does.
"You are my big sister best friend forever!" Brightfire explains bouncing excitedly. Suddenly pausing she cocks her head "Tia is in second place!"
"Okay well at least i'm still one of your BSBFF's" Tia chuckles strutting over to the two younger fillies. "So, are you excited about tomorrow?"
"Yup!" Tomorrow Brightfire was turning five, which meant that Luna was going to turn seven. Also it meant that Tia had already turned nine.
Noticing that Brightfire's face had gone blank and only her ears were twitching, Luna was about to ask what was wrong but was stopped by Tia, who placed her hoof on Luna's shoulder. Promptly Brightfire turns and gallops out of the throne room and stops in front of the fillies' parents room. Eventually Brightfire sees Tia and Luna following. Hushing them she puts her ear up to the door.
"You are so bad Brightfire!" Tia smirks whispering. "Eavesdropping on mom and dad like that," She starts to trot away.
"Well at least I will be the only one's to know about the banana sundaes that mommy and daddy are going to make for us later." Brightfire teases.
Rolling her eyes Tia sticks her tongue out at Brightfire. "Come Luna let's leave Brightfire to her, spying."
----------------------------------------
It was June 1st. Finally June 1st. The morning started out with me falling out of the bed. I had a purple bedroom with white tile. My bed was huge and had royal purple curtains on it. My pillows were orange and I had the comfiest baby blue blanket EVER. Do you know why? Because i'm a princess. Okay maybe Luna's blankets are softer but why am I talking about blankets softness on a day like this. No, not a day like this. On this day. Why am I making it sound like an important day. Oh yeah, because it's my birthday and i'm now five! Today my whole family and me, oh I mean and I are going to go to Prance to celebrate. Oh but that meant that I need to get ready.
"Gumdrops are red, And candies are blue. I would give away all my sweeties because, I love YOU!" I sang in my adorable squeaky voice. "I am one no more, neither am I two, if I was still that than I would be very blue. Wait I am blue!"
I liked making up new songs. Actually, I loved it. I love singing, it lets other ponies know how I am feeling. I grab my brush with my hoof and start to brush my mane and tail, they are down to my knees now. I stare hard in the mirror. I sure don't look five, I look like the same, everyday old Brightfire. Then I randomly see a flash of light appear on my head. But, it disappears just as fast as it came.
"Could it be?" I exclaim. "Somepony napped my glow!"
I dive into my huge closet searching for my detective outfit. Finding what I was looking for I pick up my maggieflying glass and slip on my jacket and hat.
"I can be a detective for my Birthday!" I suddenly realize the brilliant idea and race out my room closing the door behind me.
I observe everything around me through the glass as I head to the throne room, when suddenly I feel like something is different. I look up and gasp as I see the glow on my horn again! But it disappears just as quickly as it did the first time. I then hear a thump and see my glass flat on the floor.
"Okay who ever is doing this, it's NOT funny!" I shout. Glaring around I don't see anypony, so I place my glass on my hat and keep on walking. At that moment I hear a sound that I hear only mommy, daddy, and only the unicorns make. I glance up at my horn and see the glow. Except this time it was huge. I gape around the room as I randomly see antique items such as vases, trophies, pantings, my hat, and my glass floating around. I was so shocked at that moment that my wings spread by themselves and all of the items fell to the floor, and before i know it, I have crashed through the castle room and I was getting farther and farther from the ground.
------------------------------------------
I couldn't help it. I scream. But not out of the terror that I thought that I was feeling. It was out of the excitement that I have never had so much of in my life, what I was truly feeling.
I unclip the button to my jacket and it floats back down to the castle. I then realize that I was going to far up. Panicking would have been my first reaction but I remember what my mommy told me to say if i'm about to panic, it was really a nice song actually.
"Buttercups, Dandelions, remind me of you.
And they remind me that i must do what i must do.
First I close my eyes and count to ten,
And when I open them i'll be calm again."
I close my eyes and count all the way ten,i feel my heart slow down, when I open them I am floating in mid air far away from the ground. An idea comes to my mind.
"No, i'm only five." I reason with myself. "Even if I seem weak I can do this!"
I nosedive down, as I gain speed I feel the wind resistance against me stronger and stronger. I feel like I should give up, my muscles burn so bad and I feel like I will come apart. No, I will never give up!
Then, it happens. I break the chains that held me down. I feel free like nothing can hold me anymore I belong to myself. I see a trail of rainbow and fire colors following me as I continue to ascend down. An explosion of blinding colors grows larger and larger above me.
"Woo hoo!" I cheer and I look down to see ponies of all sorts cheering and staring in awe. I am over a forest now. I crash into the trees and fall to the ground I fall on top of a young colt the same age as I. He is red and has a white and grey mane and tail. his eyes are solid black. His wings have red and white feathers in three layers. I must admit, he is handsome. Even to some pony as young as me, or I I mean. Realizing that I landed on top of him and that I was staring at him, I quickly jump up and back up.
"I'm so sorry!" I apologize. I move forward to help him up first by grabbing his hoof.
As soon as he looks up at me his jaws drops, he tried to cover it with a yawn.
"I truly am!" I repeat.
"For what?" He assures. "I'm fine really! I feel great knowing that I broke a pretty filly's fall!" He blushes looking away. I feel a tingling in my stomach all the way into my heart. I too blush and look down at my hooves.
"I'm Dreya,"
"I'm Brightfire,"
"I better go." He starts to walk away but falls over and starts to cry.
"Oh my are you okay!" I ask observing his front left hoof. "We should go find your mommy and daddy,"
"I don't have any." He sniffs.
"Well why don't you come with me to my house and my parents will help you."
He looks as if he might object but considers it. He nods his head. I then focus on how I will get him to my house. I see an orange glow start to appear from my horn and then one start to surround Dreya. He gives me a look of confusion and worry but doesn't fight me. I flap my wings and I am once again in the air except this time Dreya is right next to me. He studies my wings then does the same.
"I'm, i'm flying!" He shouts.
As we start towards the castle he pants more and more, then he leans against me. I fly up high grabbing a cloud and return with it to the exhausted colt. Without an invitation he settles down onto it.
"This has been the strangest day ever!" I exclaim.
---------------------------------------------
"GET THE NEEDLES!"
A white mare with a grey and pink mane cuddles Dreya and a black and hot pink one readies a shot. With one look at the size of the needle and where it will enter Dreya faints.
"AND A WET TOWEL!"
I walk into the hospital room with Tia, Luna, Mommy, and Daddy. Every pony bows and returns to what they were doing before.
Trotting to the side of the bed, I jump up and hold Dreya's good hoof in my hooves and call his name.
"Brightfire.....?" Dreya groans regaining his consciousness.
"Hey," I reply softly feeling the tingling again. I look to where the nurse is holding his hoof lightly.
"Are you a princess?"
I nod my head and hold his good hoof.
"Will he be alright?" My mommy asks looking worriedly back and fourth from his hoof to the Nurse's face.
"Yes your majesty," She assures bowing her head.
Daddy gestures for me to follow him into the hallway. I hesitantly follow.
"Explain everything starting from this morning."
I cower back into the corner and I eventually step forward and describe everything starting from when I woke up. He seems to believe me and has the worried look that mommy has a lot.
"I should have known this day would come!" He closes his eyes and sighs. Shaking his head he lifts me up onto his back and zooms out of the hospital and deep into the Aroure forest. But he didn't go to the castle, he went into the dark and spooky part.
"Daddy where are we goin'?" I shake.
"You are more powerful and important than you know it,"
