My name is Cherish. I know because I remember my mother whispering it to me before she abandoned me on the doorstep of the orphanage. I'm older now, obviously, but I still remember.

Anyway, growing up is hard. The first thing I learned was that ponies lie. They lie and they lie and they lie. I figured that I could maybe find a family? Have a place to call my own? In my wildest dreams, Twilight Sparkle herself came to adopt me, and she taught me magic and we lived happily together as mother and daughter.

Yeah. They say dreams really can come true? That's a big fat lie, too. Even when they do, they don't. I'd know. I'm living proof.

Well, that was interesting, not a whole lot happened so any opinion I could make would be based on speculation so... Good writing style, I'll be waiting for the next update.

Dude two things. One. I'm loving this so far the potential in this story is crazy and Cherish seems like a really good character. Two. Keep going because I want to see how this turns out. :pinkiehappy:

You have my attention... but why two downvotes with no comments? :pinkiesad2:

Dude.... I hate when you repeat things :ajbemused:

Yeah, pretty much just exposition this round. Next chapter she'll get her cutie mark, though, maybe that'll help.

I thought so. The original story ended abruptly and I really felt she could go somewhere. Hopefully I do her story justice!

Thanks!

I've found out that people who downvote do it early in the chapter, and then leave. People who upvote usually read the whole chapter before voting, so the downvotes always show up first.

"Good, because I'm only gonna tell this story once."

Repeat repeat things? Where did I do that? :twilightoops:

Define "repeat things." Drilling some emotion in is not the same as just repeating something if that is what you are referring to.

Hmm.... Something tells me they're related.

Wow. Cherish's voice is loud and clear in this fic. Dark, hateful, and devoid of hope. I had almost disregarded this fic entirely because darkness doesn't really appeal to me, but wow. I'm glad I finally took the time to read this after having it sit on my to-read list. I'm already hooked.

I know I've written this before, but after reading chapter two I must say this again: Cherish's voice is loud and clear. Her characterization, even though I don't quite like her, is strong and clear, and can easily be understood by the background she grew up in, and easily sets this fic apart from the rest. Well done.

Cherish is totally Twilight's biological daughter.
Zoom is some magic heavenspawn of Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash

At first this was going to rot in my Read Later pile for eternity. Then I ran out of Yu-Gi-OH! Decks to buiild and RealityCheck stopped his updatestorm.

As such, this is far better than I expected. First-person stories tend to die for me, but this is quite intriguing.

and again, assuming the cover picture is Cherish, Twilight is her biological mother, or at the very least older cousin.

What a :twistnerd:!!!

...Except it was given away by the cover image.

i was looking for something to do while waiting for a response in changeling panic when i found this. you are a genius.

This story still being written?

…maybe? :twilightsheepish:
I've had a basic idea of where I want to go with it and I've already written the ending scene; but connecting the two is a bit difficult. I don't want to give up on Cherish, though.
