//------------------------------// // Chapter 1 An alarming vision // Story: The Forgotten Sister // by MStardust //------------------------------// One foggy saturday morning princess Celestia woke up from a rather strange vision. There was nothing to see but the magical mirror that allows ponys to cross different dimensions. Suddenly, as if a huge gate had opened, hundreds of buglike creatures came flying out of it in a panic. In the background a blurry figure, an alicorn? When Celestia opened her eyes the newly reformed Princess Luna already stood beside her. Her face frozen in shock. "What did she do this time?" "Who?" asked Celestia uncertain who could be meant. "Asari" Luna answered casually "Where is she anyway? Did you banish her through the mirror?" "I have no idea who your talking about, sister." Celestia said stonefaced "But since you know who this pony was, we must prepare everything to prevent this." Luna gave her a perplexed look. "What do you mean, You have no idea? You of all ponys should know who Asari is!" "Well, I don`t!" the ruler answered slightly irrtated "Would you kindly introduce me to her?" "You cant be serious." Luna whispered. When Celestia gave her a dissaproving look she turned angry. "SHE IS OUR SISTER!" "Our what?" Celestia looked at her incredulously. "Our jungest sister!" Luna hissed "She used to be experimenting with creatures she created by her magic! And you used to argue with her for being so disobedient und disloyal! How can you possibly not remember her?" Celestia looked at her in shock. With all of her wisdom she could not possibly guess what this was all about. "Yes." she whispered thoughtful "How could I forget about somepony that important." Luna tried to calm herself. "Well, lets ask her when she arrives here." Celestia got worried. "But the vision didn't look like she was coming in peace!" she said scared "We should prepare for an invasion!" "First of all YOU should prepare for meeting our sister AND find out what the hay it was that happened between the two of you." "Right." As the two princesses took their breakfast, Luna would explain everything she knew. "So her magic was to create animals?" Celestia summarized "But she was bored of making them normal. So she started making hybrids?" "At which point you disapproved. That is why she had a pact with Discord." Luna agreed "The two of you always found something to argue about. Yet, I can not imagine her willingly working against you. No doubt she had her fun, but..." "Still. There must be a reason, she went through the mirror." Celestia magically stired in her soup "And that she made me forget about her. I also don't think I ever read her name in the chronicles." "So there is literally nothing in this world that could remember you of her." Luna said meaningful. "Could she have turned evil by my constant interference?" Celestia said in fear of having another pony go mad because of her own ignorance. "Not Asari." Luna shook her head "She would always laugh at your prohibitions and do it again right under your nose." She took a sip of her tee. "I wonder though... After one of your fights, she would always come to me and ask for advice. How would she calm down without me?" "How old was she when I had to banish you?" Celestia asked. "Oh, in her teenage years. Not that much younger than me." "Well, I should write to Twilight and the element bearers." Celestia determined "Just in case."
