59. Why?
When I stopped crying I looked up to see that the stallions were slowly getting up, Discord was patently waiting for all of this to sink in to each and every other pony in the room, and the other mares were trying to comfort me.
“Why?” everypony turned to me, at least, the ones that weren’t already looking.
“What?” asked Discord.
“Why would you do this?” he beamed at my question.
“Well you see, my dear Twilight, your princess asked me to.” I didn’t believe him.
“No, she wouldn’t do that!” I stood and defied the monster that sat before me.
“Oh? Then where is your precious ruler? Hm? I don’t see her.” He looked around, under the throne, picked up EQ and checked under him, then sat back down with an ‘I told you so’ look on his smug little face.
“Why would she do that?” I took a step back.
“Something about preparing you.” He waved his paw around.
“What would she be preparing me for?” I was now afraid he was telling the truth.
“Spoilers!” he shook his index finger from side to side.
“What happens now?” Fluttershy asked “are you going to be a good boy or do we have to trap you again?”
“Oh, I’ve always been a good boy. I was just following orders.”
“From who?” Rarity asked.
“I already told you, Celestia.” he deadpanned.
“Can I still have muffins?” Ditzy yelled, Discord snapped and the mare was covered in muffins “thank you!” she started eating the pastries.
There was a minute where the only sound was Ditzy eating. Then a question popped into my head.
“Where are the princesses?” I asked him.
“You know, they never told me where they would go in the meantime. Maybe they’re out doing something.” He put his finger to his chin in a motion of thought.
“We have been watching the whole time.” Came the soothing voice of Celestia, but I didn’t feel soothed.
“Why would you do this to me!?” I yelled at the ceiling, which is where the voice seemed to be coming from.
“Like Discord said, to prepare you.” the voice said.
“What kind of preparation would require me to lose my first love, the love of my life?!” I screamed at the top of my lungs.
Discord came back with another “spoilers!” and a finger shake.
“Shut it!!” I yelled at him, he seemed genuinely frightened.
“Yes, my lady.” He bowed and stayed quiet from then on out.
“Where are you?!” I yelled up.
“Here” Celestia and Luna teleported into the room.
“Now look me in the eye and tell me that this was the best thing for me.” I was on the verge of tears.
She walked up to me and looked me in the eye “this was our best option.”
“Option?” I was surprised, almost anything would have been better.
“We needed you to experience loss.” Now I was shocked.
“What? What other options were there?”
“We could have killed off one of your friends or family.” I was horrified.
“What kind of sick joke is this?!?!”
“Be silent, young one.” Luna was possibly losing her patients.
“At least tell me why!”
“You dare make demands of-” Luna was stopped by her sisters’ hoof.
“She has just experienced loss; this only shows us that we were successful.”
“Successful in what?!” I yelled at them “making me miserable?”
“In a sense, yes.” Celestia answered.
“Why?” I sat down and started to cry.
“That will be revealed in time. For now, go home, live on, and try to be happy.” She gave me a sorry smile as the guards came in to escort us out, Fixinit helped me leave.
When we finally made it back to the chariots we all said our goodbyes as we departed, I stayed silent the whole ride back, just like the ride there. When we got back to the tree house we opened the door and it was a mess. There were tables on their sides, books all over the floor, when I checked my room there were sleeping ponies everywhere, but I didn’t care. I picked everypony up and put them outside my door. When every last one of them was outside I collapsed on my bed and cried.

you and me both know that wont work.
Color me curious but DAMN YOU TROLLESTIA
@ 
2460835
not trollestia, this is an even greater power... TROLLESTIA ARMY!!!!
2460842
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
2460852
lol, just kidding, Celestia has a very good reason to do this, it wont be revealed till later adventures but it is probably the most important thing to happen in her life.
2460860
great now im even more unsure than I was when he was split
2460868
about what? almost everything has been revealed... except for why celestia did that.
what are you unsure about?
2460872
Because I have no idea of her motives
other than that I can't get too curious or it will kill me
2460879
yeah... that wont be adressed for a while now, she still has a lot to go through. sorry
ok I can tell you right this moment I don't care who Celestia is I would in twilights shoes break all ties with her. Just done. Don't talk to her if she needs her jjust over. Nothing else happening.GOODDAY!!!
2460885
It's okay I'll live :D
2460886
Twilight likes Celestia too much, its like if one of your good friends cock blocked you. you wouldnt cut all ties with him, you would just hate him for a while. she might not send friendship roports for a while but that would be the extent of her rage towards celestia.
2460892
that's good, untill then im going to write a ton of adventure stories, if you have any suggestions please tell me at some point. they could just be super general ideas like 'they go to a new contrey to defend it from evil' and ill take it from there.
2460901
Hmmmmm how about a Daring Do story?
2460906
ok, i can use that. thanks.
2460910
2453942
i am so sorry
2460969
thank you, it was original though, right... right?
2460895 ok so a good friend of mine cock blocks me sure i would be pissed but to take the one I love from me I would cut ties with my parents for that.... so yeah...
So the sick twist was the royal sisters preparing Twilight for her coronation.
That doesn't surprise me the slightest. A little taboo to learn 'loss' and a bit unecessary, I mean learning about 'loss' is something everyone experiences naturally in life. Forcing it upon somepony in this case is just cruel in all aspects. I can tell you about true loss.
2460982
In a sense, I guess. But sense it revolves around her future coronation, no. But sense its an addition towards her being ready for it, yesish. Still didn't like it too much but eh, everyones a critic.
2461006
goddammit, you have to guess everything dont you, i never said anything about a corronation.
2461006
welp she needed to experience loss for some reason, not telling yet.
2460993
Twilight also knows that they also have a good reason to do what they did, she trust their judgment.
2461043
Learning loss ahead of time doesn't make any more right than one might think. And being an 'immprtal' princess, there will be the time everyone she knows around her will grow older and die before her very eyes. Just she learns loss doesn't mean she'll be ready for it every time. Each moment like that will be worse than the next until she is the last of her freinds and the elements of harmony.
2461043
And the whole coronation thing was actually rather easy to guess.
2461064
welp then the princesses made a mistake. ok, you happy? you just ruined my story, you made it pointless. thanks a ton.
2461079
just fuck you for that. your to damn smart for me.
2461107
I am happy to a degree. I have finally broken you
Sorry. Its just predictable for me. That still doesn't mean I don't want to read what happens later. Immortality has its curses.
2461110
Just for that, I'm up voting that comment. To be fair, you not only provoked me, but you did kinda ask for it in the end.
2461583
ok, thanks, and yes it does.
2461595
yeah, i guess... oh well
2461651
You guess? You were practically telling me to guess. Its just that you never told me to stop.
Sorry if I did ruin your story
2461677
Its fine, i made a small mistake is all. Your fine.
2461884
No. No. You didn't do anything wrong. I was the one being critical.
2461901
But I asked you to be critical.
2461942
this is because ive read several stories were the princesses have done similar things to twilight.
i'm sorry to say but i did foresee something like this as well. wasn't expecting fixinit to not have his memories of dillon however.
the coronation thing was kinda a given however
2461942
But I can sometimes go overboard whenever I am critical.
2462170
yeah, i guess. and if Fixinit had Dillons memories then technicaly Twilight wouldnt have truely lost anything, just Dillons body.
2462221
its fine, we all have our quarks.
2462842
Still, does having someone else's memories really make you them? I mean I've seen that in movies and in actual people who practically had a loose grip on reality and their own identities.
2462933
well if i experienced everything you did i would probably have pretty similar ideals.
2463012
Well, I hope you don't experience some of the things I've seen. Some was for better. Some for worse. And the rest was what helped me make who I am today. But yea, you probably would.
Anyway, had any good future story ideas come up lately?
2463083
in my head i had a few, nobody's come to me and asked me to do anything though... except for one guy, he suggested that i do a daring doo adventure... i thought this was a good idea.
2463251
Give me a second. I'll pm you. We'll go over a few ideas.
2463283
i awate your mesage eagerly.
2464038
yeah, fuck me, i just wrote numbers down, i might go in some day and fix all that shit. sorry, just go on thinking whatever makes the most sence.
2464408
he has a doctorate in some form of technology, whatever makes sence. if engineer is the best possibly answer then yes, he is an engineer.
2531988
thanks!!
2532893
WTF?!?! why does everyone know what i have planned?!?!?! i hate all of you smart ass readers!!! but i love you so much!!! goddamn you conflicting emotions!!!!!!
You telegraphed your motives, but I don't mind. I'm impressed you managed to stick with a story for nearly 60 chapters -- but the jury's still out on whether or not I will upvote or downvote it. Still looking forward to more.
