> The Life Of Silver Lightning > by Moon Quil > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > chapter One > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- An alarm clock goes off at six in the morning, silver groans waking up. "Ugh god, whoever invented high school hours I would very much love to say a few words to them.“. He turns off the alarm clock as he gets dressed for the first day of Canterlot high, he eats breakfast and leaves for the bus where he meets his two best friends: Celestia and Luna. It's Luna's freshmen year, Silver and Celestia are both in their senior year. Silver smiles. "Hey guys, morning." Celestia turns to greet him. "Hey Silver, good morning to you as well." She smiles and Silver's heart skips a beat. Man, she is so beautiful- with her rainbow hair and her perfect skin, I wish I had the guts to tell her my feelings. "Hey Silver, how did you sleep?" Luna asks. "I slept alright till that alarm clock woke me up." Celestia looks over at him. "Did you hear the rumors of the vanishing students?" Both Luna and Silver stared at her with puzzled expressions. "Yeah, every year ten students vanish without a trace. All that is left is a note saying 'thank you for the subjects, see you next year.'" Luna Shivers. Silver stares up at the bus with a hopeful grin. "Well, I hope whoever does it won't do it this year. Let's get to school, shall we?" The buss opens its doors and the three friends enter the bus on their way to school where their new school year begins. Though, it's also the year the mystery comes to life once more. > Chapter Two > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The trio get off the bus to school when they hear a scream from a teacher the students and school staff run to the location as they see a puddle of blood and a backpack that belonged to a student with a note reading "With a new year begun a new line of subjects, I will take ten of them and shall leave the rest alone have a happy school year and good luck. W”. With that note in all the minds of the school, everyone looks around worried and scared. In study hall luna Celestia and silver meet in the library but luna is late so its only Celestia and silver alone. In his mind, he thinks "Now is my chance to ask Celestia out just get a nerve.“. Silver with red cheeks looks at Celestia "Hey um Celestia?“. Celestia looks at him "Yeah silver?“. Silvers heart races. "Um we have been friends since elementary school and we two have been close friends and well I wanted to ask if you um.“. Celestia looks at him and says "Yeah?“. Silver looks at her and takes a breath, "Celestia will you.“. Luna comes in "Hey, guys sorry I am late teacher held me up.“. She looks at them both. Luna then says, "Sorry did I interrupt something?“. "No um why did you text us here for luna?“. Luna looks at them and says, "I want to solve who is taking the students.”. Celestia looks at her shocked, "Excuse me sister why would you want to do something that idiotic?“. "I have to agree with Celestia you heard the note the person doing this will take ten what if we mess with that person and then he takes one of us or all three of us?“. Luna shakes her head "This person has taken so many leaving families in tears and the rest afraid I say enough is enough.“. Celestia sighs in sadness, "And what if one of us does get taken or worse?“. Luna looks at her and hug is her and she says "As long as we stand together nothing will happen to us.“. Celestia looks at silver and he nods with a smile and says, "Alright, let's do it lets figure out who is doing this.”. The hours pass as they talk a plan finally capture the Canterlot high mad scientist. > Chapter Three > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Months of planning have gone by and W has collected six out of ten students luna Celestia and silver have been struggling to try to figure out who it is and why. "We are not getting anywhere and whoever this person keeps leaving notes and we are halfway through the school year!“. Celestia says angrily about this. Luna looks at the notes closely "I think I know where the person will strike next. The Canterlot high under the moonlight prom.”. Silver looks at her with a questionable look. "What makes you think that is the next place? “. Luna looks at him seriously and says, "Who else would it be other than the king and queen of prom? Perfect subjects.“. Celestia looks at the note and reads it to Luna and Silver, "Six of ten, beautiful subjects the next duo of royalty and love shall be mine signed, W.”. Silver sighs agreeing with luna "It would make sense but that would mean if we fail two more will go missing and it will be our faults. “. The three go silent thinking it over then the bell rings. Luna looks at Celestia, "Sis we have to go, mother, is picking us up and we shouldn’t keep her waiting." Luna says packing up and going to the door Celestia says back to her "Alright, I will be right out.“. Silver thinks maybe this is it I will ask her to the dance. He quickly asks Celestia, "Hey Celestia before you go can I ask you something? “. She looks and smiles and says, "Sure whats up? “. Silver’s heart pounds like it's about to pop out of his chest as he sweats bullets. "I was wondering if um you would go.“. She looks at him and smiles and he swallows hard and then breaths hard and finally says, "Will you go to prom with me so we could be bait?!“. Celestia looks surprised then smiles and rubs his check "Sure better us then someone else cya at the dance.“. Celestia leaves and when she is far away silver falls on his knees and hits the floor with his fist. "Son of a gun! Why can’t I just say I love you, Celestia! Why can’t I just say it!“. He grabs his backpack and leaves. Silver is at his home as he listens to country guitar and he sighs and sings, "Through childhood, to teenage life, we were close as close can be. Your rainbow hair and flawless skin burned into my heart, from playdates to quizzes just being next to you make me go insane, my love for you is hotter then the sun burning red. But why can’t I tell you, Celestia, I love you! Celestia, I love you.“. The guitar song ends and he goes to bed. Tomorrow will be the prom and soon Celestia luna and silver shall finally capture who is doing all this and stop them. > chapter Four > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It’s the night of the dance and everyone is here, and Celestia is wearing a blue sky dress with rainbow trim and a sun symbol that is above a cloud. Luna is wearing a dark blue and black dress that has small sparkles that shine like stars and she has a cresent moon symbol on her dress skirt. Silver wears a white suit with a silver tie his silver hair combed and spiked up. The three are ready to catch this person. Luna looks at them both and says, "Alright now you two are nominated as prom queen and king but there are two others who were nominated so act like a great couple alright?“. Both Celestia and sliver nod and the trio go inside and act casual. Silver and Celestia are getting drinks as the ball shines brightly in the room as all the couples dance and Celestia takes silvers hand and they both go on the dance floor. As the two dance silver places his hand on her waist and she looks down and smiles her face blushing. Silver looks at her and says, "Celestia I want to talk to you about something.“. Celestia looks up at him and says, "Yes, silver?“. Silver looks in her eyes "I wanted to tell you that for the longest time I have lo.“. The speaker comes on as silver is interrupted the principle Gold worthy comes up and he goes to the microphone and says, "Students and faculty help me announce the winners of prom king and queen! The prom king and king are! Celestia and silver lightning!“. The students cheer as Celestia and silver go on stage and sit on the thrones and get there crowns and sashes. A student from the crowd cheers, "Kiss. Kiss. Kiss!“. Soon everyone in the crowd says the same as they cheer both of them to kiss. Celestia looks at him and says "Well, I guess if that is what they want.“. Celestia blushes as she closes her eyes and turns to silver to receive a kiss and silver is bright red and closes his eyes and is inches from kissing her but then the lights go out and Celestia screams and when the lights come on the thrones are empty and the crowns on the floor as the letter W was written on the wall made of blood. Luna cries out, "NO! SISTER!“. > Chapter Five > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Silver wakes up feeling cold his vision blurry, as he looks around and sees he is on a metal table marks on his chest ready to be what seems to be cut open. He smells something horrible he looks around the dim-lit room and sees on the walls hanging on the walls bodies some sliced open and some stitched together and mangled in the most horrible of ways and silver feels ill as he looks at there faces recognizing them as the missing students. Silver breaths hard looking around calling out, "Celestia? Celestia?! Are you alright where are you?“. He hears the door opens and sees what looks like a woman its the librarian Vanessa wildlife. Silver looks at her and says "Ms. Wild what are you doing what's going on?!“. He hears a groan behind him and looks up to see Celestia’s rainbow hair and tries to get free to check on her. Ms. Wild says with a smile "Don’t worry she is fine so far.” Silver looks at her and says, “What are you doing what are you going to do to her!?!”. He struggles to get out of these restraints. Wild touches Celestia’s cheek and with a grin she says "She has lovely skin flawless even it would be ashamed to cut into it.“. Silver grunts trying to get free and says with a grunt "Why are you doing this why do this for so long and why do this to the students?“. Vanessa looks at him and rub is his biceps. Vanessa tells him this "Beauty silver. The beauty, I am slowly losing my beauty while these students gain beauty, once I was beautiful I was a goddess of this school but sadly, one wrinkle on then pimples and my popularity went down the tube so fast. I studied the human anatomy to see if there was any chance of gaining my youth but no luck, so I decided to make my own tests sadly I haven’t found any yet. Hopefully, you too will make it come true.“. Vanessa grabs a butcher knife and goes to him and rubs the sharp blade across his cheek. Silver tries to move away but groans as the blade cut his cheek slowly and he looks to see the bowls and intestines covering the walls. Silver struggles to get free and looks at her with tears of anger and says "You are insane, mad even there is not enough science in the world to make you young and beautiful again!“. Vanessa looks at him with a grin and says, "Maybe, maybe not perhaps I will get better luck with your love.“. She goes to Celestia who wakes up still fuzzy but sees the blade and screams. "No. No! NOOOOOO!“. Silver screams as he breaks the restraints and takes off the other ones and punches Vanessa and she lands on the ground hard. Celestia with tears and a smile thanking his hero "Silver thank you get me out please!“. Silver quickly gets the straps off and helps her up but screams "Silver look out!“. Silver turns around and stops as Vanessa stabbed him in the chest and turns the blade as he coughs up blood and falls to the ground Celestia drops to hold him. Celestia with tears says "No please no god please don’t take him please!". Silver looks at her and holds her hand with his bloody hand struggling to speak he says "Cel... Cells... Celestia, I love you”. Silver's hand drops as he is lifeless in her arms and she has tears in her eyes. Vanessa looks and grins and says "Well, one dead least I have one other to test on.“. Celestia closes his eyes and stands up and takes the blade out of him And Celestia with rage stands firm and she charges at Vanessa. > The Final Chapter > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The police track silvers phone as they arrive and open the door to find Celestia and a dead student in her lap and Vanessa wild dead with cuts on her and a blade in her neck. Celestia with cuts in her as she cries holding silver close taking so long to get them apart she goes to the hospital and has been quiet for weeks till finally when luna visited and she is doing a whole lot better. "Sister, are you alright? The police wanted to thank you and congratulate us for finding the killer and kidnapper and also say sorry for our loss.”. Celestia looks at her and says with a tired and sad sigh "He said he loved me and I was oblivious for so long. I am an idiot such an idiot and fool for not seeing it sooner.”. Luna holds her close and says, "He saved you and the kids of the future who go to Canterlot high. He and we are heroes. “. Celestia remained in the hospital till she was sane in the head and alright. Silvers funeral was sad and happy knowing that the deaths of the kids Vanessa has taken are at peace knowing she is dead. Celestia returned to school along with her sister, Celestia will never forget Silver lightning and even though she made many friends in school and beyond only two will be in her heart forever and always. And when she sleeps and dreams she dreams she sees silver and they have fun in her greatest dreams. Celestia says sadly and with tears running down her cheeks, " I am sorry Silver, for being so oblivious to your feelings, Rest in peace Silver Lightning you will be missed by all and mostly by me my love. I hope we meet again in another life, my friend, my love. Goodbye“. She sheds a tear and awakens from her sleep. The End.
