Chapter 7 - A Corner of Memories

(Again im having second thoughts... And still got no information of both persona Ippon datara and Jack frost)

“Hey Golden...” Syrup asked

“Yes? What is it?” Golden rolled over the grass, looking at syrup

“What do you think is up there?” Syrup pointed at the sky

“Uh... Sky?” Golden answered jokingly
Syrup smiles a bit at Golden’s joke

“Silly Filly! I mean in Space” Syrup still pointing at the sky

“Oh.. well, i don't know much.. must be planets? stars... uh...”
Golden thinks hard for other things in space, Syrup holds her self from laughing
Golden notices she’s forcing her self not to laugh “Alright then... what do you think is up there?”
Golden challenges syrup

“well... to me its heaven!” Golden looks at her confused..

“I dont get it...” Golden gives up knowing what she means

“You see... Thats where my parents are..” Syrup tells Golden

“You mean your parents are flying across the space?” Golden still oblivious, asked Syrup

“Huh? No!.. okay let me tell you this.. when you leave this world, and MOVE on.. you go to heaven! There, you wont feel anymore pain, no fights!,”

“Free food?” Golden timidly adds, Syrup laughs

“Yes, Even free food!”

“Alright!!! Then I Promise I’ll go with you to heaven! Count on it!!” Golden suddenly said out loud

“Huh?!” Syrup looked at her a bit shocked of what she just said

“Thats right! I’ll stay be your side no matter what!!”
Syrup admired her determination and saw it in her eyes that she was telling the truth

“You promise?” Syrup said

“Yup! Definitely!” Golden Assures

“Pinkie Pie Swear!”

“Cross my Heart and Hope to fly, Stick a cupcake in my eye!” Golden chants
Satisfied Syrup gave Golden a hug...

DJ Puts Golden at the couch and Looks at Golden as she smiles...

“She must be having a nice dream” Bon Bon said

“Hey shhhh... your gonna wake her up” DJ shushed Bon Bon as she covers her mouth

“By the way Berry.. How come you were the last to come back, when you were the first one to your place?” Lyra asked Berry.. Berry is sweating now...

“I... uh... Did you see my opponent?! He was huge!! and so big that uh... I got a hard time defeating it!!” But in reality she just went to ride and eat in the carnival the whole hour..

“Really?” Lyra looks at her eye to see if she was lying “Y-y-yup!” She said almost chocking at her answer, Lyra looks at her closely until finally she bought her story... Lucky Pony

“Okay, That aside... How many keys we got now?” DJ asked the group
All of them showed the key’s they got..

“one, two,three,... six! they’re all here!” DJ said

“So what now?! Where should we go now?” Bon Bon asked...
Lyra looks at the map, but all the red dots earlier have been cleared out

“The map is not showing the next location!” Lyra tells the other ponies..

“Then where!? Tomorrow is our last chance to find octavia and we don't have a single clue where we should go next!!” DJ Slammed her hoof at the floor in frustration

“Calm down DJ! We’ll find her don't worry” Lyra tells to her, she subsides a bit and calms down.
Just like in cue Igor spoke from out of nowhere...

“I see you all got the keys my little ponies”
All of them Squealed in Surprise and Fright as Igor walks out from the shadows.

“geez Igor! you nearly scared us out of our skins!” Berry proclaims

“My Apologies ladies, But i am here not to scare you.. I am here to show you the path to her Lair”
Upon Saying this Golden woke up. Igor continues
“The keys you hold will open the gates for you to go to her lair.. May i have the keys, if you may” Igor spoke as he reach his hands to get the keys to the ponies. The ponies each gave their keys, and lyra gave two keys to Igor

“Interesting... you got hers as well i see” Igor looks at Lyra

“Y-yes” Lyra said while shaking a bit

“Very well..Let us open the Gates” Igor walks to a wall then drew a distinctive door like pattern and started to chant, A light illuminates the pattern and it became a doorway to a Bright passage
way

“I must warn you though... this is where the corner of your memories exist, You will see a Distant Memory Which you have longed forgotten. You are free to see them, but if you chose not to.. you can close your eyes while inside... The Path is open!!... go my little ponies”

Igor gestured to go as he disappears again.. leaving the ponies staring at the light door way...

“Well what are we waiting for?! LETS GO!!” Berry jumped and dived into the blinding light

“BERRY WAIT!! darn it! she’s a bit of an air head” DJ said while scratching her head in irritation

“Okay then i’ll go next” Golden said while jumps head first to the portal!

“Hey what the~” Dj was cut off as Bon Bon Dives in as well! Lyra gradually walks to it and entered it without any fuss
DJ was left alone as she too went inside after just getting angry a bit at them...

Berry, Who went first was flying on a white space...
“Berry Punch?” a voice called out
“H-huh?! who said my name?” Berry looks around and only saw nothing
“Berry...” The voice said again, Berry recognized the voice... “M-mom?!”
A memory of Berry when she was young suddenly appeared though her eyes

“Berry... How’s my Little filly doing?” Her mom smiles as she brushed the mane of Berry
“Im fine mom... really” Berry giggles
“Im sure you are... Are you ready for school Berry?” Her mom says, smiling at her daughter
“Yup! I’m all excited... but mom.. would they like me?” Berry asked, worried of the outcome in her first school day
“Of course they will, Because you are Kind and Gentle as a butterfly” Her mom hugs her tightly
“Now you be careful on your way now.. Okay sweetie?”
“Okay mom... I will” Berry Punch went out of the door waving at her mother as she went to school..

“That day.. I Should have stayed home... Because that day, Is the day my mother left me.”

“GET SOME WATER OVER HERE!!!” A stallion shouted as all of the neighbours in that area tries to put out the fire in a house.

“I still cant believe it... And i never will”

“MOM!!!” Berry shouted and tries to go into the burning house, only to be stopped by her father.
Berry cried as her house burned to the ground.. All she can do is watch.

“I tried to forget... I tried to forget that memory... The painful memory of what happened to my mother, in that faithful day”

Berry woke up crying... As she drifts into the white passage.

Golden was the second one to enter... As she flies to the light passage she started to hear voice’s
“Golden! Come on were going to be late!!” said the voice, She then sees an image from the past as she stared into space..

“I-I know this place... This is the time we went to the Grand Galloping Gala!”

“Golden come on!! were going to be late!!” Syrup shouted
“Okay Hold on!” Golden tries to walk as her large dress drags her behind
“I told you not to wear such big dresses!” Syrup laughs as she watch Golden Lagging behind
“Ha ha! very funny.. mind helping me out here instead?” She said to syrup
“Okay.. Come on!” Syrup went over and tucks her dress a bit from behind, Making Golden walk easily. “Thanks Syrup” She said to her, Syrup just smiled at her and then drags her to the Gala!

“That night was an exiting night! When we were like, Be polite, courteous and behave ponies like we should be... but then this other ponies caused trouble and made the entire gala a night that we really wont forget”

Golden smiles and shed a single tear before moving on to the white path

Bon Bon shifts and turns while shouting at the place... she obviously got fond of the echo and has no gravity at the path... she continues to spin, doing somersaults and moving her hands as if she was swimming in thin air... Just then she stops what she was doing and listened to her surroundings... there it was again! It sounds like... Laughter!

“I... I remember this!” She watched her sight go back to where she was a little filly

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY BON BON!!”
Cheers and laughter is heard while bon bon is having her birthday party...
“Oh thank you Mom! Dad!” Bon Bon was over whelmed with happiness and joy, seeing her parents planned a birthday party just for her... Everypony was there! Family, Friends even Princess Celestia...
“It was the Most Happiest day of my life!! I could never ever forget this! But...”
Bon Bon Started to cry...
“It was also the day... My grandmother passed away, Without saying goodbye..”
Bon Bon cries more as she remembers her father gave her the news, that her grandmother passed on right after the party...
she was found laying at her bed... not breathing, and smiling.
“I loved my grand ma very much... She was my friend, no... Not just my friend... She was my very bestest best friend”

Bon Bon cried even louder... As she remembers her time with her Grand mother... At the very last day she talked and played with her before her birthday... Bon Bon stopped all what she was doing and just drifts away along the white path...

Lyra follows closely behind, She was wondering about what Igor told them before going through here... “Is it... Close your eyes? Or see where you were going?” She eventually went to a deep though and thinks hard of what Igor just told them
“YOUR JUST A WASTE!!! YOUR USELESS!!”
Lyra froze...
“OH YEAH WELL TOO BAD!!! YOUR USELESS AS MUCH AS I AM!!!”
Lyra recognized those voices...
“Mom? Dad?”

“No... Not this again.... Please stop! Please!”

Lyra closes her ear trying to plug out the voices she’s hearing

“YOU KNOW WHAT I’M DONE HERE!!!” Her dad yells
“THE SAME GOES FOR ME, WERE THROUGH!!!” Her mom yells back

“This was a memory I should have not remembered. Because this was the time our family... Broke apart...” Lyra trying to forget the reason why they separated and will never say the reason ever, because that it hurts her feelings and love for the parents who once loved her back so much... she could never understand of why such a simple thing... went too far.

Lyra sits back in thin air.. crying and kept on saying “Please Stop” over and over again...

DJ came in last...

“igor said to close my eyes if i don't want to see my memories” DJ thinks as she is now floating in the white path. Just then she keeps on hearing cries... Cries of a familiar young mare, Octavia.

“This is where Me and Octavia... Had our first fight”

“You Know I'm starting to hate to hate that attitude of yours!” Octavia cries as she talks to DJ

“Why?! Just because I'm stopping you on something just plain wrong! Doesn't make me a Bad Girl now DO I?!” DJ shouts at Octavia

“ITS NOT FAIR!!! WHY DO YOU GET TO DO IT WHILE I CANT!!” Octavia shouts as she continues to argue at DJ

“You know how it is!! YOU CANT DRINK LIQUOR WHEN YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACH!”
She tells Octavia, which she cant obviously see that DJ is trying to protect her, for her own good
Octavia got really mad and storms into her house Shouting and yelling at DJ

“That night I felt terrible... I had doubts if I shouldn't have her drink liquor... Or I should just let her drink... My mind was already not in focus so I went home, angry at my self.
That morning i went to her house and apologized to her... she also apologized, for her shouting at me last night... She was my Best friend! and i know she knows that too, May be thats why we both got out easy in both of our wrong doings to each other”

DJ laugh a bit at her own silliness and thought of how dorky on the way she apologized to Octavia...

“Even so... I will never forget that night... We got even close to each other... no matter how cheesy the way we apologized” She just cant for get that time and kept remembering the word “Sorry for that thing” speech she gave to her... with joy in her heart she moved on to the pathway
