The memories we have, make us a part of who we are. They shape us each and every day for better or for worse. Some memories are of years gone by; some are from the small glimpses of childhood that come to our remembrance. Others may just be of a single day. As much as we want to revisit things, time is in control. It tells us what to do, where to go, and it gives no explanations.  As I sit here in my room, looking out my window, I see the snow piling up like small mountains outside. How is it, that in a time where all the flowers have died, summers have fade, and the sun is obscured by clouds, that everything could be so beautiful? I’ve always loved snow, ever since I was a small colt. It brings back happy times in my life. However, it also brings back bittersweet memories, and questions; like photographs in the mind. It’s good to keep mementos of times gone by, even if they may appear painful at times. Whenever you see them, which may be every single day, it brings you back. I grasp in my hooves a picture; a snapshot from a day that passed me by once.  I bring closer, and wrap my arms around it. It’s times like these where I can’t help but wonder what could have been.

My name is Skyward. I’m a Pegasus from Cloudsdale. I am an artist. Not just a hobbyist, but pretty much a big shot. I used to be a starving, yet talented artist where I was from. It just so happened that my work in cloudsdale started to gain recognition from all sorts of ponies. My name slowly got bigger, until I finally broke out of simply being a hobbyist. During one of the Equestria games, I was asked to draw the wonderbolts. Everypony knew they were going to win gold that year. I was paid quite handsomely to draw a portrait of them from where they stood. I of course said yes. I had a natural talent for speed and detail. At least that was what my cutie mark was telling me. I had a map and a compass, representing my attention to detail, and a charcoal pencil which represented my favorite medium. Many ponies stray away from it, because of how messy it is, but I love it. I love the flow, the consistency, and the vast shades of black and grey that can be created by it. Drawing a portrait of the wonderbolts was the biggest break I’d ever gotten.

I’d become a household name. After that, Cadence and Shining Armor wanted me to do a portrait of them. I later developed a friendship with Cadence. One day she revealed to me that she had a cousin from the far north of Equestria. Her name was frost bite. She was born an alicorn and had tremendous magical power. The only catch is that she was just a filly; a cute, but somewhat annoying one at that. Her name was frost bite. When cadence had royal duty to attend to in Saddle Arabia, she asked me to look after her. She trusted me, so I bore with it. I was going to Canterlot for a visit, so I decided to take her with me. Frost bite was a real energetic, but somewhat obnoxious filly. She was cute, but just a little full of herself. She had this amazing ice powers. It was strange, since she didn’t have her cutie mark. I’d shocked she didn’t have it in creating snow and ice yet. She was pretty proud of her powers, and loved to use them… all the time.  It was funny; you could always tell what she was thinking. Her mane and coat were blue normally, but her mane colors change based on mood. When she gets sad, her mane turns white and forms into ice. Her hair is always slightly cold. It’s like it’s made out of snow.

Once we arrived in Canterlot and got off the train the first thing she asked me was, “Can I make it snow”
“No”, I said. It wasn’t okay for her to manipulate the weather anytime she wanted like that. That job is best left to the pegasi that manage Canterlots weather team. Her head went down slightly, I said, “don’t feel too bad, how about we get something to eat?”
“Okay…” she said.

We began to walk the streets of canterlot. On our way to an eatery I saw something in the corner of my vision. It was two unicorn fillies sitting in an alleyway, both of them were sharing a single slice of cake. One of them approached me and said, “Can we shine your horseshoes? Only one bit.” I looked at them and wondered could these fillies be homeless? I wanted to find out. I told them, “I’ll pay you two bits if you tell me what you’re doing here.”
“Oh, okay, well my name is Emerald Sky and this is Star Twinkle. And we’re here… To have cake, this nice mare was coming home from a party and gave us a piece”
“Well that was nice of her. Do you two have homes? By the way, my name is Skyward”
Star Twinkle spoke up and said, “Not really”
I felt very sorry for them. I knew what I needed to do. I couldn’t leave them there. I was going to have take them to the Canterlot police department, see if they have any parents and if not get them in an orphanage… But not before I have some fun with them.
Frost Bite spoke up and said, “Hi, my name is frost bite.”
“You have wings and a horn?” Emerald sky asked, “Are you a princess?”
“As a matter of fact I am”
“Woah”, both of them exclaimed.
I interrupted, “So, to have my horseshoes shined it was five bits per hoof? Right?”
Emerald Sky said, “Umm… Yea… Totally, that was totally what I said, right Star Twinkle?” Her friend nodded
“Six bits per hoof it is then.”
“Gee thanks Mr.” Star Twinkle said. “Four shiny horseshoes coming right up” Emerald Sky said.
“Well you’d better hurry” I added, “I’m not paying you eight bits per hoof for nothing”

Emerald Sky levitated the horseshoes up and they began polishing them with a rag. It took them very little time to get done. I was going to be paying them regardless of whether or not they did a good job, but I was shocked. They were spotless. I was amazed at what a thorough job they did.
"Magnificent job, so what was the payment... Was it 10 or 15 bits per hoof?"
“10" Star Twinkle says... "No, don't you remember it was 15", Emerald Sky argued
I laughed and said, “Okay, 25 bits per hood it is.”
I handed them a bag full of 100 bits. That was chump change for me. I always wanted to give freely to ponies on the street. Now, they days of handing out rusty old bits to the poor are over. I can afford to really help. Star Twinkle teared up and said sniffling, “Thanks a lot sir”
“You’re welcome, now come. I’m going to take you all out to eat”
“Isn’t that great” frost bite said

All three fillies were following me at this point. Star Twinkle and Emerald sky were hoping up and down behind me. I was going to take them out, get them some food, then work on finding a home for them. It was all going to be real simple. “Stay close, I don’t need any of you getting lost”, I said. All of a sudden something strange happened. Star Twinkle began to stumble. It was as if she was dizzy or something. At first I didn’t think that much of it, then I say how Emerald Sky reacted. A look of concern was on her face. She helped stand Star Twinkle up and cried, “Oh no, not again.”
“What is it?” I asked
“We need food now…  Right now”
I thought to myself, does she have some type of physical problem? I didn’t have time to ask. I placed her on my back and ran as fast as I can. Emerald Sky said, “We need to hurry, things happen when Star Twinkle hasn’t had enough food. Bad things happen, trust me it’s not pretty”
“What kinds of things”
“Hurry, you don’t wanna find out”
I just kept on trotting. Frost Bite was having a difficult time keeping up with us. Star Twinkle let out a deep moan and Emerald began to sob, “No… Not now, not again.”  Star Twinkles eyes and horn began to light up. She was visibly in pain. I asked, “What’s happening”
“It’s her magic” Emerald Sky asked, “We need to get her some food now”
I don’t think I could make it to an eatery in time. I let her down and began searching through my saddle bag. I didn’t know if I had food, but I kept looking. I finally found a hay bar, and gave it to her. She immediately scarffed it down faster than Pinkie pie scarffs down cake. She then rested on the ground panting. Emerald sky embraced her and cried, “"Star Twinkle? Thank goodness you're okay this time, and no one got hurt"
“What happened” I asked. Star Twinkle got up and sat there with her head facing the ground.
"I guess it's time to explain what that was about... huh.." Emerald sighed
“Yes please”

Her voice grew somber as she explained. “Well, Star Twinkle’s my sister... But she's a bit more than that. My father was a powerful unicorn. He was at one point Princess Celestia's chief adviser.... He taught at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. I remember he was always very busy, and focused entirely on his magic. One day he came home angry.  ‘The most important magic in Equestria’ he shouted, ‘And these cowards are too scared to use it.’ I stayed out of it. He comes home ranting about Celestia and Luna all the time. I was very young and didn’t understand most of it. But I figured they were keeping him from advancing his work. I was very right. One day he was fired from his position as Celestia’s adviser. He was fired for studying forbidden magic. The kind that can create life...
However, that was not before he stole one of the forbidden books from the Canterlot archives. Back then I was lonely in school and had few friends. He decided to test his new magic by casting a spell to make me a sister. The spell called for a combination of his and my magic. I was very young, but all it took was one tiny little spark of my magic to create her out of thin air. There she was. The moment I saw her I knew she was destined to be my sister. I could feel in my heart that a part of her came from me. Nothing can describe how happy I was. That was when life was easy, before everything went wrong. Her magic... was out of control. During severe stress, hunger, pain, or strong emotion, her magic would go haywire. Her horn and eyes would glow and her unstable magic would cause disaster everywhere she went. She's burnt buildings, destroyed things... But it’s not her fault. One day my dad had enough, and he tried to cast a spell to make her disappear. I know she's dangerous, but she's my sister, I helped create her too, so she's more than that. There was one thing he forgot. She was created with some of my magic. We had and still have a deep magical connection. To use magic to get rid of her required my consent. His spell failed, since I refused to use my magic to get rid of her. If both of us created her, it'll take both of us to destroy her. I ran away with her, and that's why we're on the streets, to get away from him. He wants to make me destroy Star Twinkle.”

I was beside myself after hearing that story. I thought, should I really be doing this? Should I be helping these fillies hide out from this pony? Regardless of how I feel, Star Twinkle is dangerous. I paused for a moment, not knowing what to do. I looked at the two fillies. I stood there and thought, for better or for worse, I have to help them. Frost Bite stood there looking slightly depressed. “That was really sad” she said. I spoke up and said, “Don’t worry; I’ll make sure he doesn’t get you.” I’m still not sure if that was right.
“You know Star Twinkles not a freak right? She’s just different.” she asked.
“I know she is, and that’s great. Now let’s go get some cake”
*eyes of the world jam*
I wanted to lighten the mood and get everponys mind off of this. I took them to the café I originally planned on going to. We sat down and a grey wall eyed mare came by to take our orders. There was something strangely familiar about her. Emerald Sky looked very sad as she sat there. I honestly didn’t know what to say. I spoke up and said. “Come on Emerald, it’s going to be fine. You need to eat to keep your strength up. What would you like?”
“I guess a number nine”, she replied
“I’ll have a number nine too,” Frost Bite added.
I told the waitress, “I’ll just have a number six, with extra dip please”
Star Twinkle spoke up and said, “I'll have a number nine, a number nine large, a number six with extra dip, a number seven, two number forty-fives, one wit' cheese, and a large soda”
I laughed and said, “Go right ahead”
“Yea… She’s got quite the appetite” Emerald Sky said. She smiled for a second, but then went back to frowning.
“Thanks for buying us food” Star Twinkle exclaimed. I said, “You’re welcome”, but I was focused heavily on Emerald Sky. I wanted to cheer her up. I asked, “What’s the matter”
“I'm worried about my dad... I know he's searching after us. He can't use the spell without my consent... but I'm still worried.”  
“Why is that?”
“There's no telling what he can do, why he's probably telling Celestia all about her right now... making her out to be some kind of monster”
“I won’t let anything happen to the two of you”
The waitress came back. She served us out order and we began to eat. Star Twinkle ate like she had never eaten before in her life. We were having a good time, then all of a sudden, Star Twinkle began to convulse.
It was quite scary, her body started shaking and she could barely stay balanced in her seat. “Are you okay?” I exclaimed
“No… He’s coming. I can feel him”
“Who’s coming?”
All of a sudden a tall bearded unicorn entered the room. He was dark red and he dressed in black coat. He had large goggles on; I couldn’t see most of his face. He stood in front of our table not saying anything. The fillies were frozen in fear. I spoke up and asked, “Who are you?”
His expression didn’t change. HE simply turned towards Emerald and said, “Emerald, please, you know this is the best thing to do.” She slammed her hoofs on the table and screamed, “Shut up!!!” I stood up and with a sour voice I said, “Leave this place, sir”
“I'd stay out of this if I were you... I don't care what they told you... You have no idea what you are dealing with”
“I think I have plenty an idea”
“This isn’t a game”, he shouted, “I'm dead serious... If you don't let me do this, you're gonna have the blood of a lot of ponies on your hoofs”
"What are you going to do?"
He ignored me and instead turned towards Emerald Sky and said, “"Emerald... It's time to come home before you end up dead"
"Stop it daddy... Star Twinkle wouldn’t do that"
"The only threat to them is you. Now back off” I said in a serious tone
“You think I just wanna kill her off to be mean don’t you? You think I’m just some evil unicorn trying to kill some innocent little filly just because she’s different?”
“That’s how I see it” I said, but I didn’t really mean that. I knew why he was trying to do it. I just wasn’t about to let him. Before we could go any further, Star Twinkle began to cry and shouted, “Stop fighting, all of you!!!” Her horn began to glow again, and all of a sudden, the restaurant caught on fire. I grabbed the two fillies and ran out. Frost Bite flew outside and hovered above the burning building. Her horn let out a beam of bright blue magic. Ice and snow began to cover the flames. She whispered to herself, “Why did it have to be fire?”

She hovered back down and fell out in exhaustion from using all her magic. The unicorn father looked at me with an angry glace, “You see what I’m talking about? That’s why I have to do this. Somepony could have gotten killed”
I ran over and picked up Frost Bite. She was breathing really hard. “That was amazing, I exclaimed. Are you okay?”
“Just peachy, wanna get ice cream to celebrate?”
The Unicorn grew impatient and said, “Listen... I'm leaving... I'll give all you a chance to think about this. Sooner or later you’re going to have to face what needs to be done. Otherwise you'll have me, 50 royal guards and Celestia to deal with”
He teleported away before I could say anything back. His words sent a chill down my spine. What was I going to do?

Star Twinkle cried, “Sorry about the fire. It was all my fault” She began to sob to herself. Frost Bite places her hoof over Star Twinkles shoulder and says, “It wasn’t your fault. You didn’t mean to cause it”
“Don’t cry” I said, “Let’s go back to my place. I doubt he’ll find us, we’ll be some from him there.”
“But you won’t be safe from me”
“Well… I can make some great really milkshakes” Frost Bite said
Emerald replied, “I don’t think that’s going to be very helpful.” She turns towards her sister and says,  “Stop it Star Twinkle... I took you with me because I love you. And I'm not gonna let him take you"
"Thanks... I need to keep my emotions in check at all times... So something like this doesn't happen again." Star Tinkle said, and she threw herself around Emerald.
I looked at the two and felt my heart glow. With a soft tone in my voice I looked at Frost Bite and said, “Do you think you got enough in you to take us back to the pegasi castle, you see it over there in the distance?”
“You got it”, she said enthusiastically.
*Town flow of time people clannad*
In a flash of magic, we were transported to the ruins of an old castle. It was decrepit, but it was still standing as always. The bricks keeping everything together had faded, and it smelled a little fun. There were statues of pegasi soldiers all over the place.
“Where are we?” Emerald Sky asked
I explained, “The Pegasi castle is a landmark just outside of Canterlot. It is rather antiquated. The remains have been left untouched since before the reign of Celestia and Luna. This castle was where Pegasi and unicorn came to delegate. Some say the spirits of the ancient Pegasi still keep watch here. They don’t much take a liking for unicorns or earth ponies”
“Good thing I’m an alicorn” Frost Bite joked.
“I bet dad wouldn’t think to look here”, Emerald joked.

We had ourselves a good time until it was time to go to bed. We laughed and joked for quite a bit, trying to ease the burden of the two fillies.  They both looked very frightened and concerned the whole time. I could tell they were pretty stressed out. I decided it would be best to call it a day a little early, much to Frost Bite’s dismay.
“Oh come on, can I make everypony one more round of snow cones?” she begged.
“No, it’s time for bed. Cadence said you need your rest”
“Fine” she moaned
When I went to get the two fillies, they had already fallen asleep on the floor. How they could rest so peacefully on the cold castle floor was a mystery to me, but there they were, sound asleep and resting against one another. My heart felt compelled to get out my sketch pad and draw them. I sketched for about a minute and made a nice detailed drawing of them. I then began to pick them up and place both of them on different sides of a bed in the castle chambers.  I placed a blanket over top of their bodies to keep them warm. I could see a faint smile grow on both of their faces. Frost Bite slept in an empty bed with no sheets or covers. Not to anyponys surprise, she likes the cold. I decided it was time to rest too. However, I found it very hard to. I was lost in thought, wondering what I was to do. We can’t hide out here forever. He’s gonna find them. It’s not like I can just adopt these fillies when they already have a home. But I cannot turn them in. I don’t care if Princess Celestia comes with the whole royal guard standing behind her. My heart won’t let me do it. I toss in turn in bed. I kept on worrying all night long.

When I closed my eyes I saw clouds. I was suddenly in the midst of a whole kingdom full of clouds. I continued walking, and as far as the eye could see there was nothing but beautiful milky white clouds. I felt as sense of contentment. It was almost euphoric. I didn’t question where I was, or how I got there. I just felt amazing. Words can’t describe how it felt to soar around these clouds. I am a Pegasus. Flying is sort of an everyday occurrence to me. But something about this place, and these clouds; I felt so free. It was like the first time I ever flew in my life. I looked down and saw Star Twinkle and Emerald Sky. They held each other tight in a long embrace. Both of them had tears flowing down their faces, but they were smiling brighter than I had ever seen them. I flew down towards them. Emerald sky rested her head on Star Twinkles shoulder and nuzzled her gently saying, “We finally never have to run anymore” I could hear the joyful crying in her voice. They couldn’t see me or hear me. I reached out my hoof, but it phased right through them both. All of a sudden, there was a flash of light. I was back in the castle, it was only a dream… but that light wasn’t.

I heard the sound of Emerald Sky panicking and pleading for help. There were two nearly blinding beams of light shooting out of Star Twinkles eyes. I could feel the heat reverberating from it. The light was burning a hole in the ceiling. She was screaming in agony. “My eyes, they burn… It hurts so bad, make it stop”, Star Twinkle cried. I couldn’t imagine what brutal physical pain she was in. Her tears were turning to steam as they poured down her face.  I didn’t know what to do, but I couldn’t let her sit there and be tortured by her own magic. Emerald Sky jumped on top of her, and held her down. She pressed her head down against her, and cried. I also held her down as well. All the while, Emerald was weeping continuously as Skyward screams in utter pain. Frost Bite was worried and petrified the whole time. Her mane was white as snow. She eventually got the idea to use her ice powers to stop it. She cast a temperature spell, to cool Star Twinkles eyes. Steam filled up the room, and the beam of light had burned out.

Star Twinkle fell unconscious. Emerald’s face grew pale. She pressed on her body harder and harder shouting, “Star twinkle? Wake up, please, wake up!!!” Her body laid there for a second, and then convulsed. Her entire body was jerking and twitching over and over again. We tried to hold her down, but it was impossible. How could such a small filly be that strong? Eventually Frost Bite used her powers to freeze the ends of her hooves to the bed. It was the only way to keep her still. After about five minutes she stopped again. Emerald sky stood over her crying, “Why does this have to happen? Why now?” Star Twinkles eyes slowly began to open. She wrapped her hooves around Emerald and cried, “Emerald, that was the worst pain I’d ever felt in my life, I was having a nightmare and I got scared, then my eyes got hot. I woke up and they were burning. It was like my eyes were being burnt out by fire. I don’t wanna feel anything like that ever again.” Emerald held her until she finished sobbing. Frost Bite was crying a little as well, but she turned away and did it silently.

Star Twinkle calms down and looks of into a distance. I saw her face and could tell something deep was on her mind. I could read it on her face. She wiped the tears off Emerald Sky’s face and said, “It’s okay, I think I know what I have to do now.” Her voice was as cold as the grave when she said that. I thought to myself, what are you going to do?” I didn’t say anything. Her face grew more scared and more concerned as she hugs Emerald tightly and continued to look down at the floor. What was going on I thought? She turned at Frost bite and asked, “Hey Frost, tomorrow, could you make it snow please? My sister really loves the snow.” Why was Star Twinkle talking about snow at a time like this? “Um, sure” Frost bite replied. Emerald Sky asked, “Are you sure you’re okay”
“My eyes burn a little, but trust me; I’m going to make this all right”
Emerald sky got back in bed as Star Twinkle curled up next to her, her hoof resting over Emerald’s side. The two eventually fell asleep. Somehow, even after all of this so did I. Frost Bite insisted that she wanted to sleep in my bed tonight. It was obviously because she was scared, but she claimed it was too cold. Or maybe it was too cold for a filly from the coldest part of Equestria that has ice powers and a mane as cold as snow. She did get to sleep and her  mane did turn back blue again.

I woke up to the sounds of screaming and sobbing. Frost Bite woke me up early in the morning jumping on my bed. There were tears coming from even her eyes. I got up in a daze and asked, “Uh... what’s happening?”
“It’s Emerald”
I got up and ran to her room, when I saw her crying alone in bed. She had a sheet of paper pressed against her chest. I came up to her and asked, “What’s wrong, where’s Star Twinkle?”
She tried to tell me, but she could hold back the tears. She handed me the tear stained note. It read…

"Dear Emerald,
You know I love you. You forsook your own home to keep me and protect me... But now it's time for me to protect you. Father was right, deep down, you know it's true. My magic is dangerous, and I'll destroy you all if you stay with me. I'm going back to Canterlot to turn myself into Princess Celestia. Don’t feel angry or sad. Please, understand that I just can’t bare this pain anymore.

Goodbye Emerald Sky,
With love, Star Twinkle"

I stood there with the note in my hooves for about five seconds. I was angry, but I also felt like crying. There was no time for tears. I was going to have to go and get her. I went to Frost Bite and shouted, “Canterlot castle, now” She immediately knew what I meant and we teleported right outside the castle. I looked up frantically. I was scared we were too late. In the distance I saw all three of them standing on the balcony above us; Celestia, the Unicorn that confronted us, and Star Twinkle. I put the two fillies on my back and flew up there. I shouted, “Stop” to the top of my lungs as the ponies noticed us. Frost Bite bowed and said; “You’re highness” Emerald Sky jumped off my back and threw herself onto Star Twinkle. She sobbed as the begged, “Please, just don’t go. Don’t leave me”
“It’s okay” Star Twinkle says, as she places a hoof on her shoulder, “You know this is for the best”

I was just paralyzed with emotions. I didn’t know what to say, so I just said whatever came to mind. “Well you’re wrong” I shouted. Star Twinkle looked over at Frost Bite. Her hair had turned completely white and her voice had gotten soft. She asked her, “Frost Bite, could you please, make it snow this one last time”
“Okay”, she said holding back tears.
I felt sorrow and anger. I couldn’t hold back, I yelled, “No! Stop, this is wrong.” Her father, the unicorn, was normally expressionless and spoke in a serious tone of voice. But all of this happening had broken even him. He approached Emerald and cried, “"I'm sorry Emerald, this was all my fault. I don't wanna hurt Sky Twinkle... It's my fault, all of it. I used that illegal magic, I created her... Please forgive me"

Frost Bite shot a beam of magic into the sky. The clouds grew thick and snow fell down over the city. I saw how beautiful it is, but I was still losing my mind. I felt tears start to flow down my face and I cried out, “No, this is wrong, she’s not dangerous… She’s not…” I knew what I said wasn’t true. I just couldn’t stop. I bent down and gritted my teeth trying desperately not to cry in front of all of them.  Celestia spoke up, "It's okay Emerald, your father and I have found a new spell. We aren't gonna destroy her. Instead we built a new world for her. A paradise, one her powers can't destroy"
Star Twinkle interrupted, "It's a big beautiful kingdom in the sky Emerald... I'll be happy there... These convulsions hurt, my magic hurts... I don't wanna live life in pain anymore. I'm through suffering like this. You have to consent”

Emerald stood there beside herself, she lowers her head and finally cracks. “I consent”, she said in a soft weeping voice. I couldn’t believe what she said. My emotions were too out of control to simply accept that she made the right decision. I fell to my knees and cried out loud. I couldn’t get a word in through my own cries to continue objecting to anything.
“Goodbye, all of you” Star Twinkle said. We just sat back and watched. The Unicorn and Princess Celesita’s horn were surrounded in magic. Emerald Sky’s horn also lit up. A blanket of color and light surrounded Star Twinkles entire body. Slowly, she began to fade into the luminescence. Emerald Sky paused and spoke, “No, I won’t let you go. I love you” All of a sudden she trotted as fast as she can to Star Twinkle. She leaped into the air and embraced her in a hug one last time. As the magic spell was finished, both of them had disappeared into thin air. I tried to call out to her, but it was too late, she already made her choice.  I felt so awful at that moment; my heart was filled with sadness. Frost Bite hugged me and cried, “Are they gone now?” I held her in my arms and said, “Yes… It’s over.” When her father saw that Emerald had disappeared as well he screamed her name to the top of his lungs. Never before had I heard anyone cry so loudly. He sat there, right at the very spot she disappeared at, digging at the floor beneath him. He cried, “Why? This is all my fault, I lost her. She’s gone.” Celestia placed a hoof on his shoulder, saying, “Your daughter is in an eternal paradise, with the pony she loved more than anypony else... Try to understand... She's happy, and she'll always be happy."

I had to leave, I couldn’t do it anymore. I grabbed Frost Bite and flew off with tears in my eyes. Even after she calmed down and her mane turned back normal, I was still weeping. It’s really ironic that I was sitting back in the castle crying while a little filly was comforting me. She was saying, “You shouldn’t worry, they’re in a better place, like Princess Celestia said.” I wiped away my tears and said, “Okay…  You’re right. I should be happy for them. But there was just so much I still wanted to do.”
“I know, I miss them too”
“I didn’t give them their drawing”
“Huh?”
“The charcoal drawing I did of them, I didn’t get the chance to give it to them”
Frost Bite saw the drawing on the table, she said, “I didn’t see this. It’s really beautiful”

She told me, “In a world of magic... pain... and misery.. True Joy exists... it's rare, but it's real”

Those words made me feel happier.

Every single night I have the same dreams. I’m in the clouds, flowing in the breeze. Sometimes I see the two fillies there with me. I see them playing, laughing and smiling. I don’t know if these are just dreams or something more. All I know is that every single night, I look forward to them.

That's a really awesome story, but I can't help thinking that they were killed and sent to heaven.
