	Fluttershy walks him to her home, he still levitating the three materials; the thick old journal, quill, and the thin looking better journal. They reach her house, Fluttershy turns around, seeing him still to his task, she for a second decided to discipline him. “N-Now I know you like to do your study, but you should not walk while read, or writing at that matter too.” As she reaches to grab it, he put it in his bag, giving her a malicious look; as if to say never try that again. “O I’m sorry. Will this is my home, I mean our home.” She said with a smile, while opening the front door. “This is the living, and in here is the kitchen, this is my pet bunny angel, say hello angle, This is Nightfall, he’ll be staying with us from now on, so be nice.” They walk out the kitchen, through the living room to a door. “This is the bath room.” They walk out the bath room through the living room. “This is the stairs, b-be careful.” She spoke before ascending the stairs. “This is my, I-I mean our room.” Nightfall looks around. They went back down stairs. I’m about to make dinner, you can play in here if you like. “I have to go to my… the place I was staying, to get a few things.” Nightfall spoke. “O, okay I’ll come with you.” Fluttershy offers. “You don’t have to, just wait here.” “O okay.” Fluttershy replies, her ears going back, and her head tilt down a little away to the side. Nightfall let out a sign “If you want to, you can come.” Fluttershy head lift up, with a small smile. “Okay, I-I mean if you want me to, that is.” “Yes I do.” The two set off.

Twilight, and Rarity are outside the mayor office “Rarity you didn’t have to come with me, you know.” “Yeah, but I feel like having two unicorn to represent this would be better.” “Okay here we go.” Twilight knock on the door. “Come in.”  As command a voice from the other side, they enter. The Mayor is sitting at her desk looking over paper, she glance up to see the two mares. “O, Twilight and Rarity, what can I do for you to day?” The two mares walk up to her desk. “Do you know of the colt name Nightfall?” Twilight asks. “Only from the invitation that Pinkie gave me, she gave me another one yesterday, it must have been for him too.” “Will you see, we recently found out he’d been living alone on the out skirt of the Everfree Forest.” “O mind, what about his parents?” “It highly likely he doesn’t have…” Rarity explains with a sad expression. “I see, and you came to put him in the orphan, correct?” “No, we came to see can custody of the colt be given to Fluttershy? I already have the paper work right here; we just need you to legalize them.” Twilight pull out the paper work she prepare with her magic grip. “Here’s everything needed, all you have to do is sign it, I have two copies; one for you to keep as official document, and another one for Fluttershy to hold on to.” The Mayor looks over the paper work. “We would still need to bring him in.” “That want do Mayor, the colt would just run to another town, we don’t want to run the poor boy away.” Rarity explains. “I’m afraid to say, Rarity is right, he’s a unicorn and an even gifted one at that; he can already use teleportation, and upon other spells, who knows how many he really knows. We have to be care full with this.” Twilight explains. “Will in that case… I guess we can go about this as such. When do we sign the paper? Not only will Fluttershy need to be here, but also the colt too.” Mayor asks. “How about at the Welcome Party tomorrow?” Twilight offers. “Hmm, I don’t see why not. Okay then, at five, I’ll come early so we can finish with this before the party starts.” “Excellent! Fluttershy, and Nightfall will be there. Thanks for understanding.” Rarity spoke. “Will I can see how this is a delicate situation, and we don’t want to run the young colt off, also I know Fluttershy will make a wonderful mother.” “Will then, we’ll see you at the party, bye Mayor.” Twilight spoke, while walking toward the door. “You two have a nice day.” “Yes you to Mayor, bye.” Rarity spoke as they exit the office. “Will that was easier than expected.” Twilight told Rarity with accomplish timid smile, after the door was close. “Yes dear, now I must be getting back to my shop, I have an order to complete if I wish to make it to the party. Bye Twilight, thanks for the book again.” “No problem, bye Rarity.”         

Nightfall and Fluttershy walks a little farther down the Everfree forest boarder, until they came to a make shift hut. “Just stay out here, I’ll be right back.” Nightfall said. “Okay.” Fluttershy acknowledge. Nightfall open the door to see Rainbow Dash digging into stuff. “What are you doing?!” Nightfall yells. Rainbow Dash turns around startle. “”What are you doing here?” “I could ask you the same question.” “Aren’t you appose to be at Fluttershy’s house!” Rainbow Dash spoke. “What that have to do with what you’re doing? And what are you doing?” Rainbow Dash look nervously around, but then strengthen herself and look directly into Nightfall eyes. “I’m looking for information on you; I’m not going to let you stay with one of my best friends, without knowing anything about you.” Rainbow Dash replies. “What is your problem? We never even meet, but your acting like I done you wrong.” “That’s right emo colt, we never meet, we done no each other, how can I trust some colt like you around my friends, especially Fluttershy? You don’t even want friends, and for you not to want friends mean that you don’t want anybody getting close to you, because you have something to hide.” Rainbow Dash finish, panting a little, Nightfall just stares at her. “You’re delusional.” “I know there something here, something that will tell me about you. And when I find it, it’s all over.” “Leave.” “Make me.” “Leave.” Another voice came from outside. Fluttershy steps into the doorway. Rainbow Dash gasps. “F-Flutterhsy?!” She yells out of surprise. “I don’t know what wrong with you Rainbow Dash, and right now I don’t care, you should leave.” “But he’s hiding something, I know it, you got to bel-” “Leave!” Fluttershy raise her voice a little above inside voice, cutting Dash off. Dash eyes shows pain of betrayer, and sadness when looking at Fluttershy, then she looks at Nightfall, with eyes of anger. She flew off out the window. Fluttershy breathe a breath of relief. “I’m sorry about that, don’t worry, she want hurt you, I promise.” Fluttershy spoke to the colt with a smile, and eyes of caring. “O I’m not worry about her hurting me. If you could just stay out here, I’ll be right back.” “Okay.” Nightfall close the door, he walks to the spot, that Rainbow Dash was standing. His horn let up, a peace of the floor move inward to the side, showing a stair case. Nightfall teleport to the bottom, he lit his horn to precise the dark, a wall is shown in front of him, he push the wall inward  and to the side with his magic, a door size hole is uncover, granting him access to another room. Inside, their three a bunch of different large sizes shape on the floor, with strange symbols and more shape in them, of it look to be writing in some kind of red substance that seem to be pealing and drying away. The makeshift solid dirt desk, as if he was pressure together then polish off, on it laid a thick old tome, and another journal. His magic them into his saddlebag, then exit the room, and reseal it. He teleport himself back to the top floor, and close the stairs case entrance, fusing it back with the earth around it. He exits seeing Fluttershy waiting for him with a smile. “Sorry for the wait.” “O it wasn’t long at all… Let’s go home.” Fluttershy spokes with a smile of that of a mother, Nightfall response with a smile. “Okay.” They walk back to Fluttershy house; they walk back to their home.

“I’m going to go preparing dinner; you can play here in the living room if you like.” Nightfall did just that, he set on the floor, and levitating the thick beat up stain over journal, the thin nicer one, and a quill. Fluttershy smile joyfully, and went to the kitchen. After dinner, Nightfall went back to the living room, back to his task. Fluttershy clean the kitchen, and ran the bath water, filling it up to the top. “Nightfall, it’s time to take your bath.” Fluttershy call out, with a glee full expression. Nightfall put his material away in his saddlebag, and enters the bath room. In the bathroom, Fluttershy were waiting with a towel warp around her med section. “I, I was wonder if I could bath with you, i-if that’s okay.” Nightfall looks at the blushing mare, he levitate his saddlebag off him, and put it on the floor next to the door. “If that what’s you want, I don’t mind.” He spoke. “Okay, c-come here.” Nightfall walks up to fluttershy, she drop the towel from her midsection on to the floor, then she step in to the tub, position herself to the far back of it. “O-Okay, come get in, right here.” She signal for Nightfall to set between her legs, and so he did. After bathing they went up to their room, Fluttershy got in bed, and looks towards Nightfall, as she lifts the sheet up to wear she wants him to lay. Nightfall put his saddlebag on the truck in front of the bed, he crawl toward fluttershy, to the spot she want him to lay, after he’s in position, facing away from Fluttershy, she lower the cover. And snug close to him. Nightfall breathes in and out, falling asleep before Fluttershy, who tuck this chance to kiss him on the forehead, near the base of his horn, and follow him to sleep. In Nightfall mind, he is stand in the room, their a desk with two open journals, one old, and the other one pages are blink, laying in front of them, is the tome that was in the secret room, under his hut. It too is open. He set down, and magic the quill up as he start writing, looking into both the journal and tome.

Next morning Fluttershy awaken to see the colt facing her direction, cuddling up to her chest, and arms warp around her mid-section. As she smile at the site taking in the image before her. She made the move to wake him up, but was cut off by his words “Mommy don’t go.” That made Fluttershy froze, as she saw a tears running down the colt that was grid hold to her even tighter. “Please mommy don’t leave me.” She cuddle up, warping her arms around him, to embrace him the same way and spoke, “Don’t worry, I’m right here, I-I will never leave you, I-I promise.” This calms the colt down. Right then and there It became something else now, it became pain to her, to  the reason why he  was grid on to her, was to hold on to his mother, she was not mad at this fact, she only felt pain, for what this colt must have gone through, up till now. She want to take away his pain, his worry, his worry, his loneliness away, she wants to make him feel safe and love, she never wants to see pain express on his face. At that moment, something awaking in Fluttershy mind, body, and heart, it’s the instinct of a mother, she felt as if she was holding her soon to be adoptive colt, but she felt as if she were holding her own fur and blood colt. She would do anything for his happiness, she would faces any danger, go through any pain, do anything to make sure he will be safe and happy, to make sure he will stay by her side forever. “Fluttershy?” She looks down at the cult that is now awake looking at her. “Are you okay?” That when she realize tears have been falling from her eyes, and rush to wipe them away. “Y-Yeah, I-I’m okay, let get ready for breakfast, so we can leave early to get to your welcome party. Okay?” “Okay.”  He replies with a smile before getting out of the bed before her.
