The Jewel Within

Reunited

Sapphire practically threw herself from the bench and rushed to the mare's side, wrapping her legs around her cyan shoulders as their red and black mane flowed down to her face.

"H-hey, calm down. I thought you would have known I was alive still... I mean, you did put that healing spell on me. Right?" The mare asked.

"What? I didn't use a healing spell, Blitz." Sapphire said, tilting her head as she stepped back.

"It sounded just like you. I could have sworn I heard your voice in my head as everything started to fade. Maybe you did it subconsciously." Blitz said. Then she smiled. "Either way, I am just thankful to be here."

"Yeah. I don't know who had strong enough white magic to heal you from certain death, but I am grateful to them." Sapphire smiled, going for another hug. Afterwards, she took Blitz back to the hotel. "I hope it suits you."

"I like it. How long are we gonna be here?" Blitz asked.

"I would imagine not more than one more day, then I am heading back to Ponyville and am going to try to start the reconstruction of my house. Sometimes, I really miss my family, and it will help me think of them." Sapphire smiled.

"I guess that's a good way of thinking of it." Blitz smiled. "Still though... How are you going to get to Luna? They don't normally let ponies into the castle at night. Only the rich snobs mostly." She said, plopping down on Sapphire's bed.

Sapphire found herself happy to see Blitz safe again. An overwhelming joy just took Sapphire in a wave and she pounced on Blitz. They wrestled around and and it ended with a tired laughter.

"I am so glad that whoever saved you did." Sapphire smiled, nuzzling into Blitz's neck. "I-" she started, but froze at the sound of a voice that was impossibly familiar.

"That was me." A very mature looking mare stated, standing in the doorway. She had managed to open the door without making a sound. Her eyes were a bright silvery color and her mane was a green blue. But what struck the most was her coat, that beautiful silver-white that seemed to glow in the sun. A trait that the Jewel family was known for. "I knew she would lead me right to you daughter." Moonstone Jewel smiled.
