Ponyville Town Square

A mint green Unicorn mare reached the center of town and hopped up onto the fountain, sitting down and starting to gently strum her lyre, a kind of small harp and creating a soothing melody. She had some time before she was expected to show up for rehearsal with the orchestra which as it made quite a bit of money per show so she decided to get some more practice in.

Lyra was a rather well proportioned mare and as she played her lyre while wearing her work attire, a ball gown designed to hug her curves and make her seem sensual yet stately during affairs at the orchestra, she definitely managed to attract the attention of several stallions and more than a few mares.

Her cutie mark was that of a Golden Lyre her signature instrument and her hair color was a soft green with a white stripe going through it giving her mane and tail the appearance of a mint toothpaste, which was one of the reasons some ponies asked if she was related to the town's dentist Colgate. To which she could only chuckle and say no, though she would admit she could see the upside to it.

She had a modest yet still sizable chest and her curves would be able to put any model to shame as she matured and 'came into her own' as it were. Though she usually wore outfits that hid this about her as she didn't really like that kind of attention from anyone but her marefriend Bonbon

"Ah, today is a great day. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, Bonnie promised me that we get to have some 'special cuddling' time after I got home from work tonight. Yeah today just feels like one of those days nothing's gonna go wrong!" I said with a happy tone that quickly soured as I realized what I'd just done.

Ever since I was just a filly I'd had this unusual ability to predict a disaster or wide spread panic inducing event like the Flower Sisters causing a riot over a butterfly landing on each of their muzzles simultaneously. I always wondered if it had something to do with the fact that unlike most ponies, I had the same kind of teeth as an omnivore like a monkey or those Human's I'd read so much about? My mom never explained it, and dad just looked looked really nervous when I'd bring it up so I never really pressed it out of respect for my parents, I was raised in Canterlot after all.

Thought getting back to the topic at hand it seemed that this week's disaster was well... it was a demon being brought into town on the shoulder of a mare nopony had seen before, though she felt familiar to me, I couldn't quite place it but, there was this feeling like I should know them.

"THE HORROR, THE HORROR!" Yep... Daisy just triggered another town wide panic attack with that now nearly trademarked line of hers. Something that I could only sigh about as I glared at the sisters slightly as I continued to play my Lyre. It just came naturally to me, like some kind of instinctual coping mechanism that prevented me from wanting to needlessly panic.

The music seemed to rouse the demon who began to stir and as he raised his head to looked at me with his bright golden eyes, I remembered a discussion I'd had with the at the time unicorn librarian Twilight Sparkle. She'd said that golden eyes were a sign of my family meeting with the demon's for some reason generations ago.

It was likely during the rule of Overlord Nocturne, as even though even as it ended with his eternal imprisonment in stone, it was a relatively prosperous time for the ponies as Tartarus was kept under constant watch by it's own people in exchange for the ability for the demons to be allowed to harvest unused magic or Mana as they called it, their source of life.

My thoughts were snapped to attention as the demon and the mare he traveled with approached me the mare actually hugging me tightly. The feeling was odd as it didn't feel like the hug of a stranger, and more like the hugs I got from my mom and dad...

wait...

"W-Who are you two?" I asked unable to hold the curiosity back even though I may not like the answer... especially with all of Ponyville now standing around the square with Twilight and her five friends rushing into view.

"Well..." the sand colored mare said and looked to the demon who simply nodded. "I'm Sandy Breeze, and he's Tyler Black." That name sent shivers down my spine, it was the other name used by Overlord Nocturne on occasion with his close friends, allies and-

"And we're your grandparents my little Lyra." She said happily as she kissed my cheek which got several ponies to gasp at this startling news though all I could do was put it together as I was passing out.
