I relieved who Dark's big sis is, but don't look ahead! I was gonna postpone it to the next chapter, but then I thought 'nah they'd be angry with me' and I don't want that!

Chapter two: Three Helpers

Beat got off the train and looked around. It was a small town, of course, She had always loved small towns. There was a sweet shop that looked like a ginger bread house and a fashion shop that looked like a light purple carousel. Beat decided to go with the most familliar. She went up to the dress shop and shuddered, it was way too frou frou for her, but she decided it was best. The sign said open, so Beat opened the door only to be met with a white unicorn with unnatrally curly hair and three blue diamonds on her flank. "Hello and welcome to the carousel boutique where everything is sheek-" She finally looked down at me. "Where are your parents young one?" The mare asked. "Oh I was looking for my older sister, but she doesn't seem to be here," Beat said. "Anyways do you know where I can get some headphones?"

"Well," The mare started. "Oh wait! Manners," Beat said like she had forgotten it. "I'm Dark Beat what's you're name?"

"Well," The mare started. "I'm Rarity owner of Carousel Boutique."

"I came from Canterlot, my Mom couldn't take care of me so she sent me to find my big sister," Beat explained. "Oh?" Rarity asked. "Where's your Dad then, darling?"

"Erm if I told you, you wouldn't believe me or you would believe me and cower before me," Beat said, rubbing the back of her neck with a hoof. Rarity walked up to the young alicorn. She had not noticed that Dark Beat was in fact an alicorn. In fact Rarity thought Dark Beat was a simple old Canterlot Unicorn. "I will not, promise," Rarity said, sweetly. "Okay . . . . My Dad is not a colt, she's a mare, but she's not exactly a pony either," Beat explained. "W-what do you mean, darling?" Rarity was trying not to freak. "My Dad is Queen Chrysalis," Beat said, bluntly looking at Rarity to see her reaction. Rarity would've fainted, but she saw the wings on the young alicorn's sides. "You're an alicorn? I thought you were a unicorn," Rarity muttered. Beat shuffled her hooves and smiled nervously. "You're not scared of me?" Beat asked. Rarity shook her head. "Unless you actually intend danger, which I don't think you do, I will not be scared, but I don't understand, who's your Mother?"

Beat took a deep breath. "Princess Celestia, she had me so that's why she's my Mom."

This time Rarity fainted, overdramatically. Rarity pulled a pretty purple lounging couch and fainted gracefully onto it. A couple of minutes passed and then Rarity shot out of her fainting couch and gasped dramatically. "You're Mom is the Princess?!" Rarity exclaimed. Beat nodded and looked around at the dresses. There was a pink frilly one with lots of ribbons on it and a green one with light colored butterflies on it. "She never took care of me, she never had the time and besides I was in my music most of the time. The only time I really saw her was when we had dinners."

"Oh?" Rarity was confused. "She gave my big sister away when she was just a foal and my big sister doesn't know me or that her real Mother is Celestia, she said that she wanted to tell her herself," Beat said.

"And who's your big sister, darling?"

"Rainbow Dash."

"Rainbow Dash!?"

"Yes."

"Rainbow Dash is the . . . the daughter of Princess Celestia?" Rarity asked, looking like she was about to faint. "I dunno how she's a pegasus, but she is," Beat said. Rarity fainted without her couch. "Gracias, Senorita Rarity (Thanks, Miss Rarity)," Beat said in what we call Spanish, randomly. Beat walked out of the door. Okay so Rarity didn't help much, but that was just one pony.

Beat walked past many sweet shops and funiture shops, but no music shops. Finally after many hours of looking she bumped into a pegasus mare. "Oh I'm so sorry," a whisper so quiet Beat had to strain her ears. "No it was my fault, I'm Dark Beat," Beat introduced and apologized, as the mare turned around, slowly. "Oh . . . I'm Flut . . . ," the mare mumbled, shyly. "Don't worry I don't bite," Beat joked, smiling. The mare was yellow and she had beautiful turquise eyes. Her pink mane draped on each sides of her head and her cutiemark was three pink butterflies. "Oh um . . . . I'm Fl-Fluttershy," the mare said in a low whisper. "Fluttershy?" Beat asked, curiously. The pegasus nodded, shyly. "That's an awesome name!"
Fluttershy blushed. "Oh . . . why thank you," Fluttershy thanked quietly. "I was looking for a music shop, but I was wondering if you've seen my big sister, Rainbow Dash, lately?" Beat asked this question casually. Fluttershy inspected Beat closer, saw her wings and horn, and answered her question. "You're Rainbow's little sister? I've never heard of you, but I did see Rainbow Dash sleeping in a tree recently, but I forgot which tree," Fluttershy answered quietly. "A-and you're an Alicorn?"
"I am an Alicorn, my sister somehow got just wings," Beat said. "Oh, uh . . . okay," Fluttershy squeaked. "I'll see you around, Fluttershy, I have to find my sister and some new headphones," Beat said, as she started to gallop off, not hearing Fluttershy's faint goodbye. Beat walked all the way until she stopped in front of a tree house/library/castle. It didn't help much since she wasn't a real fan of books, but maybe the librarian knew her sister. Dark Beat walked into the library, to see a great hall and doors that lined the inside. "H-hello?" Dark Beat called out. A purple pegas- no scratch that- alicorn walked out. She had purple eyes. A indigo mane with two fat streaks of purple and pink. Her cutiemark was a pink star with white triagles sticking out of the joints and six tiny stars surrounded it. "Hello I'm Twilight Sparkle," the alicorn greeted. Beat decided she would use her formal name. "'Sup! You must be that new Princess my Mom told me about, I'm Princess Dark Beat daughter of Princess Celestia," Beat had a playful tone in her voice, but Twilight did not seem to notice. "P-Princess Celestia's daughter?" Twilight asked. "In the flesh!" Beat exclaimed. "But she never told me anything about you," Twilight said. "She tells me everything, I was her star pupil."
"Well, she wanted me to get adopted when I was just born, because she couldn't take care of me and be a Princess, but she had to keep me until now. I guess, in her duties, she just forgot to tell the world about me, even my big sister doesn't know about me," Beat explained. "Why?" Twilight asked. "She got adopted when she was little, I heard she's the most loyalest of friends and she's done what no other pegasus has done before!" Beat exclaimed, with a winning smile. "Wait, pegasus? Loyal? Who is your sister?" Twilight asked, having a sneaking suspicion. "Rainbow Dash!" Beat squeaked. "What!? Does she know Celestia is her Mom?" Twilight asked. Beat shook her head. "My Mom wants to tell her herself and do you know where a music shop is? I need my jams again!" Beat asked this in a dramatic way. "Well, Vinyl Scratch and Octavia own one, it's called Wubs and Melodies, I think," Twilight said. "But wouldn't you wanna find your sister first?"
"Well, she'll have to wait, music always comes first! Unless anypony needs my help, then helping them is more important," Dark Beat said. "You are like your sister," Twilight said, giggling. "Thanks," Beat thanked. "I gotta go get some headphones, goodbye!"
"Bye! It was nice meeting you!" Twilight shouted to her, as she went back into the room she came from. Beat headed, in a random direction, off for the music shop that was, supposedly, called Wubs and Melodies. She had no idea where it was, but soon after searching for hours, she found it. It was a grey and white shop decorated with black music notes. It was open, so Dark Beat walked inside. A bell jingled. There was a white unicorn, a grey earth pony, and a blue pegasus and they all looked at me. The white unicorn had shades over her eyes, a light blue and blue mane and tail. Her cutiemark was a black music note. The grey earth pony had a dark grey mane and tail. Purple eyes. A pink bow. And her cutiemark was a purple treble clef. The blue pegasus had a rainbow mane and tail. Her cutiemark was a rainbow lightning bolt coming out of a white cloud. Magenta eyes and an awesome ego. I spread my wings to they could see I was an alicorn. I walked up to them. "Do you have any headphones here?" Beat asked. The white unicorn nodded. "How much are they?"
"Fifty bits," The unicorn said. "Dang it." Beat said. "Curse me not having a job."
"Who are you? Where's your Mother?" The earth pony asked. Beat quickly explained everything, except for her big sister and who her Mom was. She didn't know why she didn't mention her Mother, but she didn't. "Wait who's your big sister, if she's here in Ponyville?" The pegasus asked. "Her name is Rainbow Dash," Dark Beat said. The mares' faces were in shock, the pegasus was the most shocked. "Do you know where she is?!" Beat asked, eagarly. The pegasus went up to the filly. "I'm Rainbow Dash," the pegasus said, clearly shocked. "You're my sister?!" Beat asked, astounded.
