The Early Years

View Online

Once long ago there was a land where talking ponies lived. This land was called Equestria. In this land there was a lovely couple. The stallion was a unicorn and the mare was a pegasus. The mare's name was Honey Harmony. The station's name was Dazzle Harmony. Now this wonderful couple was two months away from their one year anniversary and had gone to Canterlot to celebrate. There they had their first foal, which happened to be a pegasus filly. The young couple named her Nicole Wallabuckle Harmony. She had a cyan blue coat and a mane that had fuchsia, orange, peach, white, pink, red, baby blue, deep blue, light green, deep green, and purple. Two days after she was born a very unfortunate event happened. A mysterious unicorn stallion arrived at their house and was waiting for them to return. This, my friends is where our story begins.

“She hasn't stopped crying since we left the hospital," Honey exclaimed in a very worried tone, “What do you suppose is wrong?!"

“Shhh, Honey she's probably just tired." Dazzle replied calmly.

Just then they passed a group of scared animals, and Honey heard humming.

“Dazzle, be quiet please." Honey said in a scared tone.

“What's wrong?!" Dazzle said in a worried tone.

She then pointed a shaking hoof and wimpered, “M-m-master. W-w-what d-d-do y-y-you w-w-want?"

In truth the pony she called master's name was Mister To Be Feared.

He laughed wickedly and replied “so you've had a filly hmm? Give her to me and I'll kill him and spare you, sound like a deal?"

“NEVER!!!" Honey screamed ecstaticly.

“So be it." He replied in a low growl almost as if he was born to kill the filly's loved ones in front of her he slowly chopped off the unicorn stallion's head and put it on a metal pole to be put outside later. By now the filly had started wailing and he was laughing. Honey was trying to find a way out but was soon stabbed in the joint that connects the wings to the back. Laughing even louder to her screams he killed her the same way he killed her husband.

To anypony outside of their house it would seem as they were screaming just to scream for an hour, but inside there was a different story. Though these thoughts had died completely when they saw Honey and Dazzle's heads on poles in their front lawn. It wasn't long until the princess was there. Meanwhile in the Everfree forest Nicole was with her foal-napper.

Every night she would have nightmares about the day her parents died but kept quiet. She was so scared. She didn't know what to do. At first it was just their screams. Eventually everything was replaying in her mind. It scared her and she thought it was all fake, but it wasn't. Soon everything started scaring the pore filly. She eventually was as easily frightened as a deer. Mister To Be Feared laughed at her for it and would throw things at her. Everypony felt bad for her.

“your worthless, just drop dead." some other ponies would say.

they're right she thought to herself.

Others would try to comfort her saying “You are the best pony ever."

they wrong and always will be. she thought to herself after hearing that.

Mister To Be Feared only confirmed her thoughts, though she would never admit the fact that she thought he was right.He did many horrible things to her like hitting her for no reason.

why is he so cruelshe thought while crying herself to sleep every night.

he really is as evil as they say.she thought one dayI should commit suicide.

She eventually wanted it all to end, so she tried committing suicide. Everypony was in shock, well the ones who knew about her anyway. It scared them all more than it would have ever scared her. She wanted to die and wasn't afraid of death. She knew death would reunite her with her family, but what about her friends, you ask? Well she didn't have any. It might be frightening but think about it, wouldn't you have done the same? I know I would have. Her master was cold and didn't care about her at all. She was locked up in the cave with chains all the time. Everypony was upset about it but he continued to harm her, he even smashed her wings between two large rocks. Before her wings even healed he put her on a cloud with her delicate wings tied to her back while there was a thunderstorm over head, he was extremely evil and would kill her soon. He laughed and took her to a cave near the castle of the two sisters. One time he used his magic to make her face plant into a wall. She ran away and was caught. He then broke her wings and tied her back up. She hoped, dreamed, and prayed that her life would just be over. She cried for three days. She wanted it to be over then and there. A week passed by before he came back, but when he came by to her sorrow he brought a filly and a colt. The filly was a little bit younger than her. The colt on the other hoof was a little bit older than her, she tried to befriend them but they shied away from her. She realized that they were as afraid of her as a wild animal. Well it would not be easy so she started by just getting them used to her voice then everyday she would edge closer to them. It took awhile but it worked. Her master came back a week later to feed them and realized she was trying to befriend them. He turned and leaving her for the timberwolves, but that my friends is a different story.
