Forgotten
Chapter 1: Chapter 1: The Plan
Load Full Story Next ChapterEverypony knows Lyra Heartstrings. Now before Twilight came to town her, Derpy, Bon Bon, Octavia, Time Turner, and Vinyl Scratch were the stars. Everypony used to thank Derpy as she soared in the clouds, clearing the sky. People would come to Lyra for help with magic. People appreciated Vinyl Scratch's mixing and Octavia's classical music. Bon Bon would make amazing desserts for Ponyville. Doctor Hooves was a great doctor and timekeeper pony. But when Twilight came and saved the elements of harmony, people forgot about them, and by the time Twilight became an alicorn, they separated. Vinyl moved back to her hometown, Manehatten, and hoped to regain her fame. Time Turner moved to the Crystal Empire, in hopes of better business. Octavia moved to Canterlot, in hopes the unicorns there would enjoy more of her type of music. Bon Bon got a job at Sugarcube Corner, and almost never leaves there. Derpy moved to back to Cloudsdale, and all that was left was Lyra, who stayed in Ponyville.
Lyra opened a cyan sparkled notebook. A spark came from her horn as she moved a quill and some ink over to her table. In the book she wrote:
"Dear Diary,
I know I hope everyday, but I wish my old friends were back. We had a lot of fun together, and the only reason why Twilight and her friends are popular is because she does nothing but study, and her friends are popular just because of her. Other ponies around Ponyville do amazing things, but no one cares anymore. I just don't get it. What would even happen if I brought them back-"
Lyra closed the notebook and looked across the room at her fireplace. A picture of her and her friends stood on the mantel in a frame. Lyra looked closer.
"Their lives must be horrible. I know what I have to do." She said out loud.
She grabbed her backpack and a map of Equestria.
"First stop, Cloudsdale!" she yelled.
Then she looked over at another picture on her mantel. It was she and Bon Bon. She knew she couldn't leave her best friend here. She put her backpack down, and then dashed to Sugarcube Corner. She saw a pony with a cobalt blue mane with light fuchsia highlights.
"Lyra?" a voice called out.
"Bon Bon?" Lyra replied.
The two ponies hugged each other.
"Bon Bon, I need to tell you something." Lyra said letting go of her friend.
"Tell me anything." Bon Bon replied.
"Ok." Lyra continued. "It's just that ever since we all separated I've been thinking, maybe we can get back together. You know, me, you, Derpy, Octavia, Time Turner, Vinyl. Maybe we can become stars again. Just think about it. Are you in?"
Lyra held out her front right hoof. Bon Bon reached out her right front hoof and shook Lyra's.
"I'm not stupid. Of course I'll help you. I'd love to see them again." Bon Bon said proudly. She dashed upstairs and came down with a backpack.
"Wait, what about food. We can't starve!" Lyra whispered warily.
"I'm sure there's food in wherever we're going." Bon Bon reassured Lyra.
