“I’m… I’M DISOWNING YOU AS MY MOM, FOR… FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!” Magic Aura used the rest of her breath to scream this at the top of her lungs. Magic Aura quickly ran off to her room, tears spilling like waterfalls out of her eyes and she sobbed on the way. She slammed her door as loud as she possibly could, and locked it so no pony could disturb her.

She hopped on her bed and curled up and sobbed softly to herself. She wiped away some tears and whimpered then used her magic to bring her phone over to her. She quickly started texting her best friend, Soft Aloe, venting about what had just happened.

Magic Aura: UGGGGGGH!

Soft Aloe: Magic aura? What happened? Are you okay?

Magic Aura: No! My stupid mom and I got in a fight because she didn’t let me have coffee this morning and was half-awake during Princess Celestia’s boring speech about the gala! She told me that I need to stop staying up all night playing video games and writing! Can you even believe that? She’s always on my ass about everything! I swear she hates me Aloe! She wants to mold me to be just like her and it’s insulting! Why can’t I just do what I want? It feels like she’s just a wanna-be mother, who only had a kid to take heir to the throne when she retires! Ugh!

Soft Aloe: Aww, im sorry aura, I wish I could help, but I hope you feel better anyways! Just know that im always here for you if you want to talk more… Im admittedly busy at the moment but I promise to get back to you once I finish up my chores…

Magic Aura: Thanks… ok…

Magic Aura sighed, pushing her phone aside and wiping more tears off her face. She always liked that her best friend let her talk to her when she was upset, but she also hating throwing all of her silly little problems on her, no matter how much Soft Aloe said it wasn’t an issue for her. Magic Aura thought back to the argument with her mom that she had a few minutes prior and felt her eyes well up again. She buried her head into her bedsheets and sobbed into them. She wasn’t sure if she was actually sad or if she was just pissed off. Both were an option. All that she wanted to do right now was run away and never come back. But where would she go? She could go to Soft Aloe’s house, but she wouldn’t want to just… barge in on her and Miss Fluttershy and Miss Pinkie Pie. Magic Aura groaned. This seemed like a good opportunity to game, or even “vent write”, as she liked to call it, to let her feelings out. So, she got up and pulled out a piece of paper and let her mind take over.

However, when she was close to finishing her short but emotional story, she heard a knock at the door…
