//------------------------------// // The Truth Reviled // Story: Children of The Night: The Two-World Walker // by Night-Moon-12 //------------------------------// Twilight's thoughts were always off in the clouds for reasons unknown to her foster parents and brother, she desperately wanted to them her secret, but, she didn't trust them enough with her disguised form. Her foalsitter, Cadence, knew how Twilight felt... being born different, living with your real appearances hidden behind disguises that make you normal when you truly are not. It's like waring a Nightmare Night costume you can't ever remove until the time is right, Twilight and Cadence looked and acted normal but it pained them doing so. When Twilight hid herself away within the shadows of the rafters of her room, she felt safe, welcomed, and loved by the darkness around her. Nights fell easily as Twilight slept the days away, being able to show her true form and not have a care in the world if anypony, expect Cadence saw her now. Twilight snuck off at night to go home, to the Shadow Garden, hoping praying that somepony would be waiting for her. To welcome her home, to hold her, to care for her, and maybe even love her. She wanted her Mother, her brothers, her sisters, all of them, to come home. It wasn't easy coming home to on one there to greet you, to say they missed you, or to tell you how hard it was not being able to play with you. Twilight felt an agonizing void that couldn't be filled without THEM here, she stood still as the sound of a twig snapping accompanied the stillness held in her heart. Twilight spun around ready to attack anything that'd dared to sneak up on her, suddenly a black mass jumped her, pinning her to the ground as she felt something fluffy touch her nose. The only pony who would do that was Dracula Silverdawn, Twilight's life-long friend and Shadow Brother. Twilight growled in annoyance, getting up as the vampire lept off of her. She turned to see him standing so close to her that there was small gap in between them. Dracula chuckles as he pokes Twilight on the nose, making her yelp a bit, "Beep!" "Oh, I'm going to get you for that, Dracula Silverdawn!" Dracula chuckled as he rushes away with Twilight chasing him, kinda like the way that they were back when the two were foals. Things just never change.
