Chapter 3.2

It was still early morning that day with Rane Shackleton on her second dream nearly at four o'clock in the morning.

“Well, the dream I had been was really beautiful. I used to play around with the other pegasus in Cloudsdale. It was when I was a happy filly at the time. We used to fly with each other nearing the flying academy. I always have that happy face, when I gave this weird look at the green stallion pegasus. It felt that I lost my mind for a moment or two. However, we both were very little. There was a purple pegasus mare that was very down on the speed when she used her wings. Not sure what she was doing however, she was a jester as well when she made a lot of jokes. I think, if I remember correctly there was one mare that I stuck around with in my childhood years. Her name was Ivy; A cyan earth pony however, once she saw a unicorn they gave her wings because she wanted to fly. Magic can do almost anything if you set your mind to it and that was what she said to me at least.”

Rane opened her eyes and used her left hoof to rub near her dramatic arc. There was a locket near the end table that she forgot to look at. Knowing that it was missing she couldn’t remember where the thing had gone off to. The only thing she could remember was a picture between her parents. She then got up slowly making herself on a sitting position near the edge on the left side of the bed.

“My eyes were a bit of a blur this morning and I clearly had seen something from another pony from the past when I was at Cloudsdale. It confronted me in a way that I didn’t expect to tap me like this. Still wonder if the picture was on my bed from Cloudsdale. Well, when I tried to figure out what the picture was it had to be family right? I was not certain if it was maybe a friend that I used to play with back in the days when I was up there on the fluffy clouds.”

Rane put all four hooves on the floor and walked to the out of the bedroom and went to the bathroom. Once then she used her left hoof and flipped the switch on the left. She then walked towards the bathtub and felt a deep wound in her mind. Slowly used the valves as water sprouted out with warmth. She got in with that warm plastic tub with comfort of the wet blue liquid dripping down her face and then put her mind into thoughts.

“I remember another few pieces when it comes to memory. It slowly drove me into sadness when I left Cloudsdale. My parents made that face before looking down on me when I joined up in this new life. A world of social status was a thing below the clouds. Very hard to tell myself how far I've gone. However, things may have changed depending on how I reacted to that one day when I was with that one pony. Never knew it changed my whole life. One mistake maybe? Could it be that my parents had sought out.”

She used both of her hooves, rubbed them together as the water was steaming in the tub, and then she took a deep breath. Once then a few more soap suds in she used her left hoof and as she stroked her mane. She clearly started to get her memory.

In the year 1256, May 16th where she was at the circus with her parents at the age three.

“All I could remember on that day at the circus was a lot of juggling, bright lights, music, and a loud crowd that applauded ever so loud. There were these ponies with white makeup and a red nose. It made me smile and happy on that day once we left it was pouring rain outside. I felt that cold rain drops on my face. It looked like I was crying. Once then we got home. Mother walked upstairs to sleep, my father walked to the living room to read a special book, and there I was listening to my father on his lap.”

The book showed some happier ponies on the fifteenth page of the book. It had lots of blues and reds from her mane and a bit of blue and purple of the tail. The fur color was pink with her light blue sparkly eyes. She made a memory with her father.

She used her left hoof and gently touched the pink pony, laughed with her mouth opened wide, and her eyes shut gently. The father used his right hoof and wrapped around her chest gently.

The mother walked down stairs. “Hey, Rane.”

Rane’s left ear wiggled. The father used his pink glow magic and shut the book while it went down onto the table with a clunk sound.

“Do you want to go to see the circus again?”

Rane looked at the left and nodded her head up and down three times very quickly.

Rane used her left hoof and used water from the shower. She used her right hoof and tapped on her right side of her head gently.

“Think what it was that my father read to me. What was that book that was read during my early years?”

She used both hooves in the water and splashed to her face when she felt that warm water across her face. Rane used her left hoof and pulled the drain from the tub while the water made a sound in the pipeline.

Rane stood up and put her back left leg out of the tub and then her righted leg. She closed her eyes for a moment, and stroked it with her right hoof several times. The tub was still draining and then Rane walked over to the sink.

“Prince Blue Dream is your suit having any type of problems.”

“No, Petal Blossom the only fix I need right now is just the black bow tie. It might be a bit crooked.”

“Oh, I’ll fix it up Prince Blue Dream.”

Petal Blossom used both of her hooves on the bow tie and slanted it to the left of her.

“Does that look good?”

He looked in the mirror with an opened mouth with his teeth together, had his chin up to the left eye pose, when he raised that right eyebrow. He turned his head to the maiden and nodded his head up and down three times quickly.

"This looks very good Petal Blossom. Clearly, we are going to be having guests today. I want you to be at your best Petal's like always.”

She gave him an opened mouth with her teeth together, “Yes, Prince Blue Dream. I’ll do whatever I can to make them feel right at home.”

Copper Glow was sitting on the bench next to the window and on her left was Floral.

She looked at her right side, “Mrs. Copper?”

Copper was looking at the window from her right, “Yes, Lady Floral?” She then turned her head to the left.

Floral's head turned her to the right ever so smoothly, “We are going to see Rane right?” She opened her mouth with her teeth together.

“Rane; the broken pegasus just like me and my legs. I can assure you Mrs. Floral we will meet her again.”

They both opened their mouths with their teeth together.

Duke Teddy sat on a bench behind Copper Glow. The Duchess Buttercup sat next to her husband on the right of him.

The Duchess Buttercup looked at the window with slanted eyes, “So, Teddy, did you hear the rumors of a monster near ponyville?”

The Duke Teddy looked at his right, “What do you mean Duchess? You say there is a monster in ponyville.”

“It’s just rumors, honey.” She turned her head on her left slowly with her eyes slanted.

Afternoon had risen.

Noxis Kane was near the basement of the weather factory in Cloudsdale carrying that nice and shiny briefcase.

“The air is still hard to breathe. It's so thin I start to wonder how a pegasus can breathe such thin air. I had felt this way when I was here the last time from the same project of making its first creation. It had been for only six years ever since my daughter was gone. The only way to bring happiness to my wife is bringing back our daughter. I have to do this for her to be happy for the living. Without happiness what's the point in life. I’m no scientist but with high intelligence and a pegasus pony with their science we could make things possible.”

“Ah, isn’t it my old friend who came to see her own daughter.” She used her hoofs and placed two of the bat wings on both sides of the table.”

He looked at the table with a very good glance, “What are you doing? Diamond Glow.”

She laughed with that opened mouth with her teeth together, turned her head to the left with a right eyebrow raised, “Over here Noxis I’m just playing Celestial god. You do know playing with the dead is clearly banned from Equestria. However, with these wings she may come to life as we don’t use other pegasus wings to create magic to stand upon the clouds. Bat wings can still do the same without murdering another pegasus. If we did, it would be an all-out war between unicorns, pegasus and earth ponies once again.”

Noxis Kane knew what the unicorns did to the atmosphere of wild magic to control all lifeforms, “If it weren’t for your wings, you would all be under our deep illusion spell. Such an act that your pegasus species save the earth ponies from our spell. However, it’s just an old pony tale that no one tells these days.”

“In fact, you're right about one thing. Control is something we do with the weather but if the weather control ponies unlike the one unicorn who cast a magic spell who made the windigos. Hope may have been stuck in ice for many millenniums.”

Noxis Kane turned his head while Diamond Glow used her scalp knives, “I hope you have a big gut Noxis Kane otherwise you’ll be cleaning my work station after this.”

Rane walked to the kitchen while the stew on the table was hot. The Prince Blue Dream came in and sat down. “I’m finished with all the dusting Prince.”

“I understand take the rest the day off Rane you deserve it.” He then took a sip of the stew and the taste was hot. He felt it burning from the top of the roof of his mouth.

Rane took a sip of the stew while it was hot and felt the tongue burning when the red tomato liquid went down her throat. “Very spicy but very good mix in with corn and carrots. It reminds me of home back at Cloudsdale. I love those memories. In fact, I cherished them when I was the age of four. It was my favorite soup. The taste was very spicy when I had that cold fever in the winter that day. Snow was everywhere and the weather factory went to overload. The deepest thing I still love about that day was my mom. She always used her right hoof on my forehead if I ever got sick.”

The doorbell rang five times.

“Hello? Is anyone there?” Duke Teddy knocked on the door even more.

Prince Blue Dream got up, “Rane, do you want to be righted by my side?”

She nodded her head up and down three times with slightly quick and then stood up. Prince's Blue Dream took the lead while Rane was behind him. She had thoughts in her head of remembering the first time they had met.
