Chains of Heart: WindStar

WindStar…she will forever stay within my heart…Net, don’t be mad or something but WindStar was…I’ll type this later; anyway I was born in a poor family. My father was a farmer, while my mother was a maid for a rich folks in the village where we lived. Can’t remember the name and don’t bother looking for it anyway, I’ll explain later. My life there was like any little colt. Sure, I never had “real” toys like the other kids or any the good things but I loved my life there. My parents were the kindest ponies you could ever meet…sure my father drank until he couldn’t stand anymore and my mother wasn’t around until night time…but I loved them…because they loved me so much. I always dreamed that this love will forever go on…
…but it didn’t. I was thirteen when my father died. He drank himself to death…my mother died a year later. The doctor said she died from a sickness but to me, she died from a broken heart. I drop out of school and got myself a job at a local blacksmith. The old stallion I work for was very kind. He even made me a sword for my fourteen birthday. He wanted to teach me how to use it but I told him no thanks. I was never going to use it…

One night, as the moon was full. Raiders appeared from the darkness and burned everything down. Everypony I knew was gone as the fire burns away my only home. Till this day, I’ll never know if I was the only survivor of that attack. I was capture by the raiders and became their slave. It was months until I was saved by my future teacher. Two of the raiders sold me to him for sixty bits. His brown fur, his black mane and his green eyes…he was cool. He took me to his school, where he taught ponies he saved, the way of the sword. The first pony I met there was her…WindStar.
She was a Pegasus like me. Her very long light red mane…her orange fur…she was beautiful but she always kept her eyes closed. She was a loner and never talk to anypony there…not even smile or laugh…not even to our teacher. I made a lot of friends during my time there but I always wanted to be WindStar friend…

So, I tried by speaking to her but she just walk away. She will always blow me off when I spoke to her but I never gave up. Till that day. I beat her in training one day. Nopony ever beat her in training, she was the best. After training, she came up to me and…smiled. She started to talk to me when we were alone. She gave me tips on my sword style because in truth…I suck. Yeah, she became my second teacher…and from that movement on…I started to fall in love with her…I wish I didn’t…
One night, she woke me up and asks if she could sleep in my room. I said yes. I felt her warm body as she got into bed with me. She places her hoof on my stomach and hugs me very tight as I felt her tears on my neck. I didn’t know what to do…so I turned to her and kiss her. She kiss me back and…yeah…we did it…

…I woke up after feeling hot. As I open my eyes, I saw smoke. As I dash out of my room, the hallway was filled with smoke. As I ran to the next section of the dorm, I found my friends…dead. All of them died from slashes marks on their bodies. Blood filled the area…I felt sick and angry but I press on. Soon, the school was on fire. I ran to my teacher room but he wasn't there, so I left to the training area…I found him there…dead as WindStar stood above the body. Her and her sword was covered in blood…that’s when I realize it…she started to leave after hearing me call out her name. I was so angry and…sad…I grab my teacher’s sword and dash at her. She quickly turned to me and it was over. She cut me two times. She got me on the chest and my right eye. Right before I pass out from the blood lost…I remember seeing her eyes…her eyes were red and had some kind of symbol within them…

I woke up in a military hospital a few days later. A passing group of soldiers saw the fire and rescue me. I learned from the doctors that I lost my right eye and the cut on my chest will have scar but my fur will hide it. With no place to go, I signed up to the army.

But I never forgot that dark day…she will always be in my heart…as seek my revenge on her…that was the day when my anger blinded me…I wanted blood.
