Author Note: This is for old readers if they by chance come again and for thise wondering the reason why is there a gap of years between chapters. All others can skip this.
So, I tried to write a new novel "Nihility Paradise" which even thou is much better in every single aspect. It didn't recive attraction. Like not even a powerstone, comment.
This really made me realise how really should not have taken my old readers like Rey_Master for granted. Before being a perfectionist I could never be satisfied with a chapter as I was a new to writing, So, I ghosted after my vacation ended and I lost my notes from my phone.
Now, finding the notes and even though Nihility didn't pop off like I expected I can be now called a proud amateur webnovel aurther as I have improved many times over.
So, now I am back and I will be improving the writing for chapters 1 to 4. So, no real need to re read them for old writers. Though, I will rewrite chapter 5.
Although by being back I don't mean like full time! I am a university student so don't expect much!

[In a hospital in Cloudsdale]
'Ugh, I'm so sleepy,' I thought, my mind sluggish.
Opening my eyes, I saw a white ceiling and caught the distinct scent of antiseptics—a hospital. As my senses sharpened, information flooded my mind, detailing everything within a five-meter radius of me as the center.
'What…?'
I spotted a Pegasus foal with a cyan coat, dark azure-tipped wings, yellow hooves, and striking golden eyes. His platinum-blue mane and tail shimmered faintly under the fluorescent lights. The realization hit me like a thunderbolt—I was looking at my own reflection.
Willing my hooves into view, I confirmed my suspicions. I was, indeed, a Pegasus foal. My brain raced through possibilities.
'Am I drugged? Stuck in a virtual reality simulation? Or… in a coma?'
None of it made sense. The sensations were far too vivid to be a fabrication. Slowly, I moved past denial.
'WHY AM I A PEGASUS?! Of all things, why not a unicorn? How am I supposed to grab things? With my teeth?!'
[A/N: What is a pegasus and a unicorn are explained in the next chapter. Sorry for the bad pacing.]
Frustration bubbled within me as I glared at the ceiling lifelessly.
'Isn't this the part where some powerful being explains everything and hands out cheats? If you're out there, please—at least give me a system!'
I squeezed my eyes shut, willing for some miraculous response.
Nothing.
'Oh no. If this really is the My Little Pony world, I'm doomed. Because unlike in all those fanfic's MC is easily able to become a Alicorn by a stroke of dumb luck as if their aren't millions of ponies who spend there entire lives trying to evolve to a Alicorn. I am only a horse with a wings won't I be doomed being just in the same city being attacked by the villans shockwaves?!' I thought to myself anxiously.
Panic clawed at me, but I forced myself to take a deep breath.
'Wait… if I'm just born, I might have an advantage. If I start training early, I could improve my magic capacity. That's the hardest part of becoming an Alicorn, right? Most fail because their talent isn't magic-related resulting in low capacity, but with hard work, I can beat the odds! Immortality, magic, a horn—I'll have it all!'
Excitement flared within me, but exhaustion quickly followed. My eyes fluttered shut, sleep claiming me once more.

Meanwhile
"Mr. Bow Hothoof, Miss Windy Whistles—I'm sorry. We couldn't save the mother, but the baby is healthy and safe."
Outside the operating room, an earth pony in a doctor's coat spoke softly to the Pegasus couple before him.
The stallion, Bow Hothoof, had a rainbow mane, a purple coat, and yellow eyes. His wife, Windy Whistles, had an orange-and-cream mane, a light blue coat, and pink eyes. Both stood frozen, grief weighing heavily in the air. Windy looked ready to break down.
"Dear," Bow said gently, "this isn't the time to cry. Light Breeze knew the risks. She accepted them to bring this child into the world. For her husband especially after he gave his life to save hers the only reason she was able to muster the will to live and give birth" Bow Hothoof said to his wife Windy Whistles.
Thinking of their childhood friends Light Breeze and Cloud Chaser with which they grew up with and even went to the same school they couldn't help but sigh.
"You're right," she whispered, determination replacing her sorrow. "We promised her we'd take care of her child like he was our own."
Nodding, Bow turned to the doctor. "Can we see him?"
The doctor led them to the nursery. Motioning toward a cradle, he smiled. "Congratulations—it's a boy. Have you decided on a name?"
Windy's voice was steady. "Light Breeze left a will. If it was a girl, she wanted her named Cloud Breeze. For a boy, Light Chaser."
Bow chuckled weakly. "Good. Light Chaser sounds better than Cloud Breeze anyway."
Windy smacked him lightly with her wing, mock anger lighting her face. Bow rubbed the back of his head, a sheepish grin spreading.
The doctor, heartened by their banter, said, "The baby's ready to be discharged. You can take him home now."
Windy cradled the foal in her embrace. The couple shared a smile, their grief momentarily forgotten as they left the hospital to begin a new chapter.
