Suddenly Sisters: The Trilogy
Chapter 4: New Beginnings Part 4 - Telling others
Previous Chapter Next Chapter"So you don't care that I'm Twilight's little sister..." Starlight said, as she and Twilight told Trixie about the whole sister thing.
"Please Starlight...it'd take a lot more then you being Twilight's little sister for Trixie to disown you as her friend." Trixie said.
"Just don't start going around bragging about it. I'd rather not have a repeat of what happened the last time you were here." Starlight said.
"Trixie has learnt her lesson on that little factoid. Still, I suppose it makes sense in the end. I always found you to be more of a mini-twilight as you've helped me with my magic." Trixie said. "Only now does Trixie understand why she felt like calling you 'mini-twilight' feels like her complimenting her friend." She added.
"Who knows Trixie..." Twilight said as Spike brought in some tea. "If Starlight teaches you enough magic, you might become the most powerful stage magician in existence." She said.
"Really Twilight? You really think Trixie could reach that level?" Trixie asked.
"I wouldn't say it if I didn't think it was true." Twilight said.
"That..." Trixie had to stop her self from crying. "...That actually means more to me then you think it does, Twilight. Thank you. And...sorry for everything." She added.
"I've already forgiven you. Everyone does. Even my little sister." Twilight said.
"Even so...I still wanted to say it so you know that I meant it." Trixie said. Starlight smiled.
"I think that means more to Twilight then you think, Trixie." Starlight said.
"It does." Twilight said, smiling.
"Jeez...you two really are sisters..." Trixie said. "Now that I see you two together like this, it only made sense for why for brief moments before Trixie found out about your sister hood, Trixie felt like you two were already sisters." She added.
"Oh come on!" Starlight suddenly exclaimed. "Not you too! The joke is over now, stupid hand of fate." She added.
"Ugh...tell me about it. It's starting to get annoying." Twilight said.
"...Trixie missed a lot huh?" Trixie asked.
"Oh you have no idea...you wanna hear what led up to me finding out that I was Twilight's Biological Sister?" Starlight asked.
"Oh this Trixie HAS to hear." Trixie said, smiling.
"...That's a lot to unpack, Twi." Shining Armor said. "...Still...I'm worried how mom and dad will take this." He added.
"Trust me...we're both worried..." Starlight said. "Though if you don't mind big brother, we'd like you to be there with Candence when we tell our parents about this whole mess. Might might things go easier." She explained.
"Yep...your one hundred percent my little sister. Same need to plan as Twilight. Must run in the mares because mom liked to plan a lot too before she had Twilight." Shining Armor said.
"Guess dad doesn't do a lot of planning if ever." Starlight said.
"You know it. Though your not over zelous like Twilight and mom are." Shining said.
"Guess I must get that from my adopted parents. They might have reeled that in." Starlight said.
"By the way, I do want to meet the parents that did adopt you." Shining Armor said.
"My adoptive father won't be much of an issue." Starlight said before taking out a necklace with a pciture of a mare on it with a single mane strand attached. "...My adoptive mother on the other hand...She's in a better place now." Starlight mentioned.
"Oh...what happened?" Shining Armor asked.
"Bug bear attack the day after my 10th birthday party." Starlight said. "I was born the day before what was to be mothers day 14 years ago." Starlight said. "My fifteenth birthday is coming up, and every two years my birthday is always the day before mother's day. it was the same that year too." She added.
"That's harsh." Shining Armor said.
"Don't remind me." Starlight said.
"If there's any consolation in all this...you'll be able to spend mother's day with your biological mother this year." Shining Armor said.
"I don't know if that's much of a consolation..." Starlight said. "Twilight Velvet has not been a part of my life for nearly 15 years. I don't know if I'm ready to consider her like I do the mare that raised me like I was her own." She said.
"One thing at a time Star..." Shining Amor said. "One thing at a time." He added.
Sunburst pushed up his glasses after a long silence.
"...Your actually related to one another?" Sunburst asked.
"How are you the most calm so far?" Starlight asked.
"Well I've honestly never really known Princess Twilight." Sunburst said.
"You can just call her Twilight. She's your friend as much as she is mine." Starlight said.
"Feels disrespectful..." Sunburst said.
"I don't mind." Twilight said.
"Seriously, I was expecting you to have a billion questions." Starlight said.
"Same old Starlight. You always expect to have answer a bunch of questions." Sunburst said with a smile. "But hey, the way I see it, you've already been through enough finding out your related to; of all ponies; a princess! And being her biological sister at that!" Sunburst said.
"That's nice of you, Sunburst." Starlight said with a smile.
"Hey, what are friends for right?" Sunburst said. Starlight couldn't help but agree with that. Sure she and sunburst had lost touch, but now it's like nothing could ever separate them again.
"...Please don't make me do that dance every time we meet." Starlight said. She had to guess Cadence would make her do the dance her sister-in-law and biological sister do every time they meet.
"Sorry. I'm just so excited to have another sister in law. And Flurry Heart gets to have another aunt." Cadence said. Suddenly Starlight fainted.
"Oh right...Starlight and I completely forgot about the fact that being my biological sister makes her just as much of Flurry Heart's aunt as me." Twilight said.
"Oh boy...I had a feeling there was SOMETHING that I was forgetting. I guess now I realize what that was." Starlight said. "Hey, at least Flurry Heart will have two super cool aunts to play with." Starlight said, smiling.
"Well that didn't last long!" Twilight said.
"Hey, if it keeps the baby Alicorn under wraps, then we won't have a repeat of the Crystal Heart happening." Starlight said.
"I guess your right." Twilight said.
"Huh...it it just me, or has the strength of your bound been increasing the more and more you open up to your relationship as not just teacher and student, but also as sisters?" Cadence said.
"Huh...maybe it has." Starlight said.
"it's something to think about." Twilight said. "I'll have to write this down. If I get another student like Starlight and Sunset, this could make for an interesting friendship lesson for them." She added, smiling before leaving.
"And the more things change..." Cadence said.
"The more they stay the same..." Starlight agreed.
