Astronomy isn't important.

Chapter One: The Princess.

It was a bright and early morning, the sun was shining in the distance as Celestia was slowly raising it into the sky. Luna was lowering the moon as Celestia rose the sun. Today was an important day, a new princess had been born just hours earlier to her mother Starry Night and her father Grey Cloud. They named her Galexia Night, she was a small filly with a light Purple color, her wings being a shade of beautiful light blue. Her tail was the patterned shape of light creme, and violet. She was a beautiful filly, she made the most adorable faces and noises.

Starry Night had awoken from her slumber, she looked up to see her husband Grey Cloud sound asleep as their child was asleep not that far away from the two. Starry Night smiled at the little filly and whispered over to her. "Good morning sweetie.."

Galexia's small little eyes opened slowly. She moved around a bit before looking over at her mother, a smile appearing on her face. She started to move around and make inaudible noises, as most fillies would after being a few days old.

Grey Cloud woke up slowly with a snort, and gave a smile. His white mane almost covering his eye. "Looks like the baby is awake this early already." He said, his smile becoming bigger.

Starry Night had looked over at her husband a chuckled. "We don't want to have her wake up at five in the morning before Luna has even set the moon, so she could make way for Celestia to raise the sun." She chuckled.

He laughed softly, smiling as the baby kept making noises. "Seems she's alive and well, Nurse Red Heart said that she's healthy so far. So we can just hope that she will stay that way in her early fillyhood, if a young filly her age were to get sick it could be bad."

She gave him an angry look. "Okay, okay. Be quiet Doctor Hooves, don't start making assumptions and getting my hopes down like that, she's the cutest little filly the nurse said she's ever seen born in this hospital. I mean the thing is, she doesn't look anything like me or you. It's kind of strange don't you believe so?" She looked up, a bit of confusion in her voice.

He nodded, and gave out a small sigh. He truly wondered what the future for this small little filly will be, is it true that she's really destined to be the princess of astronomy? He thought to himself Is being the princess of astronomy of all things, even that important..?

Nurse Red Heart trotted into the room with a cart, having breakfast and some water. "Here you go miss Starry Night, I got you your breakfast ready. The results are in, there is nothing wrong with your baby. Except she does have an allergy to peanuts, so you want to be careful and make sure she doesn't get a hold of actual peanuts or peanut butter. Do you understand?"

Starry Night nodded slowly, and smiled. "Thank you Nurse Red Heart, hopefully we can keep her safe in her fillyhood."

Nurse Red Heart gave the new parents a soft smile, she sat her food and water down near Starry Night. She gave a small wave, and trotted back out of the room with the cart..
