A Second Chance

Not everyone is given a second chance at a life. And if they are given the gift, does it mean anything if they don't know it? A series of encounters with ponies of Canterlot will bring two ponies together who desperately need each other.

Today you wake up and things are a little different than you expected. Instead of your bed, you're lying in a mountain clearing. Instead of your normal face, a stranger looks back at you in the stream's reflection. You remember everything about your life and your loved ones... everything except what happened last night that led you to... this.

This is a story of just such a pony. First told from the perspective of the ponies she meets in the first few days after the event and then again from her perspective. Together they tell of a pony who doesn't seek greatness, only answers.

***********************

This story is based in 1000 year old Canterlot and involves some of the ponies who wielded the Elements of Harmony during the banishment of Nightmare Moon (according to The Real Story fan fiction comic on Youtube and Deviantart). Reading those is NOT necessary, but will give some background into some of the side characters in the story (link if you want it: http://nimaru.deviantart.com/art/Gathering-Elements-Rook-267204706)

Something is wrong with the included illustrations and I don't know what! I've sent a message to Imgur to see if they can help me figure it out since it seems to be on their end. Until then, the story is also posted on my Deviantart page with pictures intact here: http://nimaru.deviantart.com/art/A-Second-Chance-Chapter-1-346684809
