Ch.17 Belle's Song

Everypony started clapping as Belle walked onstage.

"Aunt Sweetiebelle, I can't do this", said Belle

"Your a great singer, Belle", assured Sweetiebelle "You'll do fine"

"But I-"

"Here", said Sweetiebelle using her magic to remove her sapphire heart-shaped necklace and giving it to Belle. "Take this. I had this since I was a filly. I was planning on giving this to you for your 18th birthday, but better sooner then later."

"Aunt Sweetiebelle-"

"Don't thank me yet. Go out there and sing your heart out."

Belle walked up to the front of the stage, and started singing as the music played.

"The whispers of the wind, speak soft in winter night
And I tremble at the sound of lonely words drifting by
But then I see your face, and know you're by my side
Though your breath seems so cold and white

At this time every year I see life start to slip away
I can't wait until the season of much brighter days
I listen and watch the vast circles of time and of fate
Like the breaking of dawn, like a rising ember's flame

I know my future's light's growing dim
But I truly wish to stay alive
I just want to breathe in
and sing from my heart inside

Wouldn't it be nice if I left
a legacy that'd show ponykind
That I was needed and meant something to someone...
my proof of life

I don't wanna sing a song that brings sad memories
Please listen I am begging you cuz all I really need
Is to laugh and smile next to you, for the joy you gave to me
I will sing a gentle song, til my life ceases to be

Winters of the future now dwell within my past
and I know now what it's like to fall in love at last
Though I can't express out loud the emotions deep inside,
I believe that our hearts are forever intertwined

It is dark in here, I cannot see...
And the silence is deafening ...
I'm so afraid; It aches inside and...
I am so alone...

While the frozen world that surrounds me
persists to disappear and die
but the image of your smiling face remains
remains in mind...

I just wanna sing a song that brings sweet memories
So when you're shrouded in this world, of loneliness you'll see,
that I'll always be beside you, holding you so close to me
Don't forget the words I say to you; never alone you'll be

I don't feel alone cuz you're holding me like before
Your warm hooves melt the coldness of my heart, and though
I can't hear your words, I understand your feelings I can't ignore
The brush of your hooves convey "I'll love you forevermore"

I don't wanna sing a song that brings sad memories
Please listen I am begging you because you're all I need
Every laugh and smile next you, was a breath you gave to me
Let me sing a gentle song...til my life ceases to be
I will dedicate what I have left,
a true song of adieu
As I feel my final breaths drift away...
I'll say, thank you"

Everypony started clapping as Belle stopped singing. She and John walked off stage. Suddenly, Pinkie Pie hopped on stage.

"HIYA EVERYPONY, YOU HAVIN A GOOD TIME?!", asked Pinkie

Everypony cheered.

"Now were gonna slow things down so you cute little love birds can start dancing.", announced Pinkie

Everypony started dancing, except Belle and John.

"Wanna dance?", asked John

"Um-"

"Hey Belle", called Time Warp

"Hey Time Warp, what's up?"

"Wanna dance?"

"Um-"

"Sorry Time", said John "But I already asked Belle first"

"Why don't we let Belle decide to she wants to dance with"

Belle though about it for a moment.

"Time Warp, I'd love to dance with you"

John just stood there as his heart was broken.
