Days gone by

“Twilight? Twilight? Where are you Twilight? A voice echoed in the mind of a sleeping Twilight Sparkle. “Who's there? Where am I? Why is everything so dark?” Twilight asked in a nervous tone. “Don't you recognize me? I am from that other world that you visited. I am you.” The shadowy figure finally came into her peripheral vision. “You look like me. But you are different.” “Yes I am different because in that dimension you took over my place. “Everyone you met here. Pinky Pie, Rarity ,Spike, Fluttershy and even Applejack came from....” The figure explained before vanishing into light.
Twilight Sparkle awoken in a jump and fell on the floor. “She said, I mean I said that came from somewhere but where was this?”
The purple pony now a princess was in a swirl of questions since she had returned from that other dimension. “ I must find out about that other world and why it's still haunting my dreams.”

Twilight Sparkle was still in a bit of curiosity and wander while she was frantically looking around the Canterlot royal Archives. As she was looking around a curious Spike was looking at her frantic fetch for any information about the mysterious race she encountered in the world she spent such a short time in.
“Twilight you are starting to worry me. Why are you even concerned about that world? I mean I was a dog and you where what ever those coat less creatures where.” Spike asked Twilight. “Because Spike I had a dream that my mirror image came to me and told me that I took over her place in that world. I am curious how they became to be. And how my time may have altered that dimension.” Twilight sparkle answered in her little snappy tone she usually gives spike.
“I think maybe you should stop right there my faithful protégé.” A stern voice said scaring both Spike and Twilgiht Sparkle.
Princess Celestia was standing behind both Spike and Twilight in a sad voice.
“Princess Celestia. You know something don't you?” Twilight asked her former teacher.
“Twilight Sparkle, I have a confession. Ever since I sent you to that world I knew that your curiosity would cause you to study on those creatures known as humans and that they lived amongst us thousands of years ago.”
“Wait they lived here?” Twilight asked her former teacher.
“Yes come with me we must talk about this alone. Spike you are not allowed to come since only Alicorn's and certain high authority are allowed to traverse to.
“Welcome to the hall of the ancient ones Twilgiht.” Twilight was shocked by the statues of humans and ponies all In one room. They have been a guarded secret from pony kind not as a cruel punishment but to protect the balance of the world we both live in.” Celestia explained getting a dusty book off.
“So let me start by saying that yes humans and ponies lived in the same realm as well as the Draconequus. The Humans where our closest friends, helping us build our young kingdom and they built their kingdom where Everfree forrest now stands however it was called The Kingdom of Everfree. And was a lively place. The Draconequus where a race all their own as well however they where as evil and as menacing as Discord was before he was reformed. Let me tell you their story.
“Along time ago when I was but a filly my Father and Mother ruled all of Equestria along with the Human King. However their Queen had died during the birth of their son Prince Star.
It was a rainy day in Equestria. King Sun and Celestia where looking out at the storm that loomed for what seemed like miles. “Daughter look at this beautiful world we created for you and your future brother or sister to rule someday. The Pegasus pony's that control the weather will be in your hands as well as the unicorns that study magic. As well as the Earth Ponies and the humans will be your help. Since they are our allies and brothers. But beware the Draconequus and their king “Chaos.” The king said teaching his Daughter.
“But father why are the Draconequus our enemies? Can't we be friends some day?” Celestia asked her father.
“I'm sorry Celestia, But the Draconequus are evil and we have tried in the past to co exist with them and it never worked out for either of us.” King Sun explained to his daughter.
Celestia was kind of sad that the Draconequus where so evil and could never find love or friendship. “I just wish that maybe one day they could change.” Celestia mumbled under her breathe.
Just as the king looked down and smiled at his filly daughter a knight came walking up to them explaining that the Human King was here to ask for an audience with him. “Yes allow him in after all he is our friend and brother. “Yes your Majesty.” The knight nodded and walked away. “Celestia you can return to your play room for the day we are finished for today's lectures.” The King explained muzzling his daughter.
Downstairs in the royal throne room King Sondra was awaiting his friend. When he noticed the Queen walking to her throne with a bit of trouble since she was near the end of her pregnancy. “Your highness. Can I be of assistance to you?” King Sondra asked with a worried voice.
“You're so sweet my friend but I'll be fine. A little kick is all it was.” The queen chuckled while sitting down in her thrown.
“Okay. But if you need anything my loyal servants that I have brought with me will be more then enough to help you.” King Sondra explained looking at his Servants.
Just as he was saying that the King finally made it to his throne room. “Ah my brother how are you doing today?” King Sun asked his friend. “I am doing fine my brother. The preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration is just about completed. And should be done a day before the celebration.” King Sondra explained to the king with a smile.
“Each pony and human are diligently working with each other to make sure everything works just fine.” King Sondra explained to the King.
“That is fine, But I have a pressing issue with my Daughter, It seems like she is growing lonely and I know that our 2nd foal is on the way. But she does need a friend. Hey why don't we introduce Prince Star to her.” King Sun asked King Sondra.
“That would be great he has been lonely as well. And needs a good friend to play with and this may be beneficial for our future since we must contain Harmony.” King Sondra replied with a smile.
“What do you think honey?” King Sun asked his wife. “I will permit it after all she will need some one to help her learn how to play with children, fillies and colts her age. We will introduce them two at the Summer sun celebration.” Queen Moon shine explained with a laughed.
“Thank you, both of you. King Sondra said as he made his exit with a nod and a smile on his face. “
“Darling what's wrong?” Queen Moonshine asked her husband with a concerned look. “I'm just hoping that the magical shield will be enough to keep out any dangers while our citizens and children play.” King Sun explained.
“I'm sure everything will be fine darling.” Queen Moonshine replied nuzzling her husband.
