//------------------------------// // The Daughter, Grandfoal and Niece // Story: Twilight's Little Star // by Pegasister_1 //------------------------------// Night had now arrived, and the moon had rose in the horizon. Twilight held Little Star in her hooves, while singing a lovely lullaby to her dear daughter. When she had finished the lullaby, Twilight gently hugged the sweet foal. Little star really was as radiant as a star. While Twilight was busy cooing over her foal, there had been a knock upon the room door. 'Knock, knock' "Come in," told Twilight. "Twilight?" questioned an all familiar voice. "Wait, is that you Mom?" she asked the voice. As the door opened up all the way, it revealed a unicorn couple with bright, happy smiles. "Mom! Dad!" "Twilight!" they exclaimed in unison. Twilight Velvet and Nightlight stepped into the room, and walked over to Twilight's hospital bed. They looked at the new born foal in their daughter's hooves. Their smile only grew. "Oh Twilight! She's so precious. She has your lavender coat, that's so wonderful. Wait, are those wings and a horn! Eep! She's an alicorn just like her cousin! How exciting! And oh, what's her name again, I forgot?" asked Twilight Velvet. "Thanks Mom, and yeah she's an alicorn. Quite a shock for me too. Her name is Little Star. Though to tell you the truth, this isn't what she really looks like..." "Whatever do you mean?" "You see, she was actually born with an orange coat, not lavender. Also, her mane was blue, instead of yellow. And her eyes were not yellow, but a blue-purple. I might've disguised her true identity with a spell..." "Wait, you mean to tell us that this isn't what our grandfoal actually looks like?" asked Nightlight. "Yes.." "Why would you do that Twilight?" "Because she looked too much like her father!" Twilight shouted in frustration. There was an awkward silence. Her parents didn't know how to really react to their daughter's sudden outburst. "Um, Twilight dearest?" questioned her mother. "Are you alright?" "I'm sorry Mom and Dad. It's just that I'm so frustrated that she was born with her father's looks. I would just hate it if somepony found out who he was just by looking at her." "Oh Twilight, we are so sorry. We had no idea that was the reason. Come here," said Nightlight, also coming in for a hug. He was careful not to get in between his grandfoal, not wanting to squish the poor dear. "Oh you guys, thank you. It means so much to me that you are so supporitive. I couldn't ask for better parents than you two," she told them. Twilight Velvet then decided to come in for the hug as well. The family were hugging to their hearts' content, while also crying such joyful tears. They separated apart from each other, wiping some of the remaining tears off of their faces. "Only if it's alright with you Twilight, but do you mind if we see her without her disguise?" asked her mother. "Of course." Twilight performed the reverse spell on her daughter, which then resulted to her disguise being lifted. There Little Star was, orange, blue, and purple again. Her grandparents looked at her with pride in their faces. "Yes, I can see why you chose to disguise her honey. She truly does look like her father. But, who cares. She is gorgeous no matter what," said Nightlight to Twilight. "Thanks Dad." Twilight decided to disguise Little Star again, just for incase. While they cooed over the newborn child for a couple of hours, another knock came upon the door. "Come in!" exclaimed Twilight. The door opened to reveal Cadence, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, and Sunburst. "Cadence! Shining! Little Flurry! And, is that Sunburst? I didn't know you were coming, what a wonderful surprise!" "I hope you don't mind your Highness, but Flurry Heart has been quite a hoof full for her parents. They requested that I came along as well to keep her under control," said Sunburst. "That's fine, and I'm glad you came. You get to meet my new foal, Little Star." To be continued....
