To Give One's Love

by TheEveryDaySparkle

The Return of a Mother

It was the last day of the month, thus marking the end of Chrysalis' banishment. It had gone so smoothly that the princesses almost thought something was suspicious about it. Their thoughts proved false.

Chrysalis was ready to return, she wanted to tell the princesses all about her time in the desert. How dun it had been to travel with the group. How it made her feel to be around True Wind, the only pony she ever truly considered a friend. She wanted to return to the hive to see her children, and tell them of the wonderful opportunity given to her by the princesses.

She had been given a chance. Instead of being killed for her transgressions, she had been given a chance to change her ways. It was the most amazing thing ever to happen to her. It allowed her to find a friend who loves her, and gave her the chance to give that love back.

It was night time by now. Everyone was asleep. Chrysalis was getting ready to turn in for the night herself.. She got into bed and under the covers. Early into the night, she awoke again to a bright light entering her room. She immediately knew what it meant. It was time.

She heard a voice beside her ":What is that light, Chryssy?" True Wind had taken to calling her chryssy at some point along their travels. At first she hated the tired old nickname. But eventually, she got used to it.

"It's nothing Wind." She said to the stallion. She was trying to figure out what to say to tell him it was time for her to go as she slid out of bed and trotted over to the light.

As soon as she figured out what to say, she turned. "Listen, Wind. I have to go now. My time is up. It was very fun with you. I've never felt anything like the time I spent with you. Where I come from, love is not so easily given to people like me. I sincerely thank you for this time. I will never forget you."

True Wind thought he was seeing a dream. Although he understood what it meant. It was time for Chryssy to return to her home. If that is what she wanted, he would not stop her. Hewatched as she disappeared into a portal of light. He said goodbye to her one last time, and went back to sleep.

Once back in the castle, Chrysalis told the princesses all about her adventures with the group from the desert, she told them about the parties, the battles, the love they shared. But mostly, she told them of True Wind, who gave her a chance to feel love one more time.

A little bit too rushed in my opinion, which hurt a little bit the credibility of the character action. But who i am to talk about credibility in a world of ponies

7777136 I have to agree. I found myself too confused about where it was going at a certain point. I had intended for it to be five chapters, but I never intended them to be this short
