//------------------------------// // Chapter 1- A new baby // Story: The Pegasus Princess // by SoliaMoon //------------------------------// During equestria's longest time of peace an alicorn and unicorn named Cadence and Shining armor had a small child named flurry heart destined to become the crystal queen, just by her alicorn appearance it was clear she would train to protect the empire and the crystal ponies as the future crystal queen. But than another filly was added to her family, but unlike her older sister, flurry she was oddly a pegasus. The first pegasus princess… ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Young 5 year old, Flurry Heart and Princess Twilight Sparkle both waited patiently in a hall of the crystal castle, it was sunny outside, yet another perfect day. They waited calmly outside the room where Princess Cadence was until a royal guard of the empire, slowly opens the door and walks towards them "Queen Cadence says You can come see the baby now" he says The guard esscorts both the princesses to the room where Shining Armor is with Cadence who is laying down on a bed, looking very tierd, smiling holding something in her arms. A small foal with a pale white coat and a mainly purple mane with atouch of yellow and dark blue in it. Adorable little wings but, no horn "Where is she?! Where is she?!" Flurry Heart said in excitement while running towards her mother Cadence giggles a bit and turns the baby towards Flurry so she can she her "She's right here" she says as she shows the child to her elder daughter and to her sister in law "She's beautiful" Twilight said in a happy voice Flurry Heart looks confused and slowly starts looking at her own wings and horn "Uhh where's her horn?" she says in a concerned voice Cadence's Happy face expression suddenly turns into worry "I.. I.. didn't even realize she was a pegasus... but she's adorable either away" she says, as the young pegasus starts doing adorable baby noises "But how can she be a pegasus? It's impossible I'm a unicorn, so were my parents and.. you're an alicorn. So how is this even possible?" Shining armor replies in a worried tone of voice, looking at Cadence with a concerned expression on his face She looks at him, confused and a bit annoyed "Well.. before Princess Celestia turned me into a alicorn, I was a pegasus. I was sure I told you this."  she answers firmly Shining Armor's eyes slowly widden and he proceeds to laugh nervously "Sorry.." he says as he slowly starts looking down to the ground Cadence smilies "It’s fine dear" "I'm pretty tired I think I’m gonna go to my room and get some rest" she adds after a loud yawn escaped her mouth "Okay the baby should too, but what should we name her?" Shining asks "Hmm.. I think maybe-" Cadence starts saying until she's cut off by her daughter "Can I name her? Can I name her? Pleaseeee" Flurry says loudly in excitement Cadence turns to look at Shining Armor to see if it's alright, he proceeds to slowly nod his head "Of course sweetie." Cadence answers with a smile The young princess looks down at her little sister trying to think of a sutiable name for her "Hmmm...Sugar Star! I want her to be called Sugar Star!" "That's a lovely name Flurry! It suits her perfectly" Twilight says to her niece Flurry Squeaks "I know right?! It's such a cute little name for her!" Cadence giggles a bit to her daughter's response "Agreed! Well.. I think Sugar and I should get to bed, it's been a pretty eventful day for us."   "Yeah I should be heading back as well, I’m sure Flash has fallen asleep by now." says Twilight turning around to walk to her room "Night Twily" says Shining Armor Twilight turns back to face him and smiles "Night" They slowly walk out of the room and close the door [A week later] Cadence is in Flurry hearts bedroom pacing, and stressing until a beautiful, yellow gold crystal pony enters the room "Oh! Marigold! There you are!" "Yes your highness, what may I do for you?" Marigold answers "Do you know where Flurry is?" Cadence asks "I'm afraid I do not" Marigold answers Cadence sighs "Well.. could you maybe go look for her and bring her here, to her bedrooom? It's almost time for Sugar Star's crystalling and Flurry Heart hasn't even tried on her gown yet!" "Of course.. I'll go look for her right away" she answers "Thank you Marigold, this is very helpful of you" says Cadence Marigold smiles "It's no problem my Queen" she bows down and than walks off to try and find Flurry [An hour later] Marigold and Flurry Heart walk towards Cadence into the Bedroom "I found her your highness, she was in the kitchen eating ice cream" Marigold says Cadence looks at Flurry who has a face full of chocolate and she giggles " Oh Flurry What am I going to do with you?" said in a funny kind of tone Flurry laughs "Well.. I think I'm going to leave you 2 alone now.. I must go prepare for the crystalling" says Marigold as she slowly walks out of the room "Now Flurry, time to wash that chocolate of your face" Cadence grabs a napkin and wipes the chocolate of Flurry's Face "Thank you mommy" she says Cadence smiles and floats Flurry's dress with magic "Now.. time for the dress" she puts the dress on Flurry with her magic "Awww doesn't that look nice?" "I guess.. but.. Mommy why do I have to wear a dress? You know I hate wearing dresses!" Flurry says in a frusturated voice "Because, Flurry, Today is a very important day" Cadence answers Flurry roles her eyes "Ugh. What's so special about today anyway?" "Today is your little sister’s crystalling. When you were born we had a Crystalling for you too, and everypony wore something nice." she answers Flurry Heart's eyes light up with excitement "Ooo! Ooo! Is that when I destroyed the crystal heart?!" Cadence giggles "Yes.. it is" "Awesome! Is Sugar Star gonna do that to?" says Flurry She laughs a little "no Flurry, you did that with your magic and as you recall, your sister doesn't have a horn" "Oh.. right.." "How do you even know about that anyway?" she asks  "I just.. heard it somewhere here in town" Flurry answers Cadence is a bit concerned "I see.. well Anyway Flurry, it's Sugar Stars crystalling so yes you have to wear a dress." Flurry has an angry and annoyed expression on her face "But it's soo ichy!" "Well you're the one who picked it out" Cadence reminds her "How was I supposed to know?!" Flurry says in an annoyed tone "I didn’t want to wear a stupid dress anyway" she mumbles "Well I think you love lovely.." says her mother "Thanks.. I guess" she answers in a grumpy tone "Well you only have to wear it for a few hours so I shouldn't be THAT bad." "If you say so.." "Oh no! It's gotten so late! We should be getting to the crystal stage!" They gallop all the way out side to the crystal stage to get everything ready [15 minutes later] Shining Armor, Cadence, Twilight, Flurry Heart and of course Sugar star are all on the big crystal stage, to start the crystslling  "I present the newest member of the crystal empire Princess Sugar Star!" says Twilight Sparkle while holding princess Sugar Star up in the air with a crystal shard to collect the love from the crystal ponies of the empire, as they all slowly bow down and then they get back up and cheer After the crystal empire crystalling ceramony, 2 female crystal ponies are talking outside in town "Don't you think it's strange that she's a Pegasus and not an alicorn?" says crystal pony number 1 "I know, it's so weird. Princess Flurry Heart is an alicorn so why isn't she?" answers crystal pony number 2 Crystal pony 1 has a confused face expression "I have no idea.. but doesn't even look like royalty. At least Flurry Heart was the first one born and she'll be our Queen. I can't imagine the embarrassment we would have to have a Pegasus as a the next Crystal queen" Crystal pony 2 nods "I totally agree. But she will still be our princess even if she is a Pegasus... So it's still pretty embarrassing I mean.. she can't even do magic" "exactly! Well, at least we're not depending on her protection" she replies she grins "yeah, we have Princess Flurry Heart for that. A loyal, responsible, beautiful and an ALICORN princess"   (To be continiued)
