Potty Training Tales

When Potties Attack (Zephyr Breeze)

Zephyr Breeze was never as curious as a foal as his big sister, Fluttershy. And he was far more “dependent” compared to her. He usually never went anywhere unless his parents were with him or were close by. And he was never shy about coming to them whenever he needed something, usually a diaper change.

However, on one particular day, Zephyr would get a chance to explore and get into trouble. And it would be an experience he’d never forget, even when his parents wished he would.

“Zephy?” Fluttershy whispered to her baby brother on that day, waking him up as she flew into his crib (she was starting to get too old to sleep in one. Her brother had gotten her old crib and she was in the process of transitioning from the new one to a bed in her size).

Zephyr yawned as he rubbed the sleep out of his little eyes. “Big sis?” He asked in a whisper. “Ya need something?”

Fluttershy nodded and whimpered. “I no can find Mommy or Daddy, they gone! What if monster get them?”

Zephyr jolted awake and sat up in his crib! “Monster?! Like one under bed?!”

The older pegasus whimpered. “I no know. But I hear strange sounds from bathroom all the time, and today I see Mommy go into it but not come back out after strange sounds. I worried. Mommy might be in trouble.”

The little colt stood up. “No Mommy?! No Daddy?!” He was definitely terrified of that possibility! Without his parents who was he going to rely on to take care of all his needs? “We gots to save them!”

“Ya come with me to help?” Fluttershy asked her baby brother as she gave him the most adorable pair of pleading puppy dog eyes. You wouldn’t have believed that she was the older sibling of the bunch with the way she was acting.

Zephyr nodded his head. “Uh-huh, I help ya, big sis! We show monster who boss!” He vowed even though he was dreadfully nervous on the inside. But he felt he had to be brave if he was going to rescue his parents, particularly his mother from whatever monster had managed to capture her.

The older pegasus filly smiled before fluttering back out of the crib. “Thank ya, Zephy. Ya the bestest brother ever!”

Zephyr Breeze just smiled back as he flapped his own wings and flew out of his crib to join his sister on the floor of his nursery (which Fluttershy sometimes borrowed). “We gots to start searching! Maybe we find Mommy and Daddy before monster make them disappear,” He declared in heroic fashion, and knew where they needed to start. “Where bathroom?”

“Follow me! And stay close, no wanna lose ya too.” Fluttershy instructed as she began to waddle out of the nursery. Zephyr followed without hesitation.


After a little bit of wandering around aimlessly with no signs of either of their parents, the two toddler pegasi managed to find their way to the bathroom. This is where Fluttershy had last seen their mother. Hopefully they could find her and rescue her without also becoming a victim of the “monster” that lurked there.

The bathroom was dimly lit and the blinds allowed little natural light to shine through, making it seem more like a cave than anything else. And the cold tiled floor only reinforced that belief in the mind of both toddler pegasi as they searched every nook and cranny for any trace of their mother, or even their father. But they couldn’t find anything at all.

“Oh no! We too late! Mommy gone!” Zephyr whined as he started to whimper in fright!

Fluttershy tried to hold out hope. “Nu-uh, Mommy not gone! Monster just keeping her hidden, but we find her,” Then as she waddled along the bathroom floor a little more, she noticed something that she hadn’t noticed before. There was a small door leading from the bathroom to someplace else, and it looked like something big was inside of this little room. Being naturally quite curious, she decided to inspect it.

Zephyr followed his sister through the opened door to the room where that big object rested on its own. This room was even darker than the bathroom, but it was still possible to make out that object that towered over both foals. It was a bright, gleaming white in color all around, except for a small, silver colored object that looked like a ramp of some kind. It had a square like top to it, and a round bottom shaped like a bowl. Attached to it was a set of metal pipes, and it felt cold to the touch.

“Big sis, ya have any idea what that is?” Zephyr Breeze asked as he eyed the bowl like beast. It almost resembled a throne room, and he thought he’d once overhear the grown-ups mention something about a “throne” in their own house. But what kind of throne looked like this?

Fluttershy didn’t appear to have a clue, though she soon guessed. “Maybe it the monster that got Mommy! We gots to find out where it took her so we can rescue her!”

“But I see no opening. How it get Mommy?” Zephyr pondered as the little colt looked all around.

Fluttershy’s eyes soon locked onto what looked like some kind of lid. “Maybe we lift that up and Mommy pop out? Or maybe it serve as entrance?” She proposed. She fluttered towards it and tried to lift it, but it was really heavy and didn’t seem to want to move.

Zephyr fluttered up to help, and he strained just as much as his sister did. But somehow by working together, the two foals managed to force the lid up and back against the top of this strange thing. It hit the top with a mighty slam which startled both foals, causing them to drop onto the seat that was now exposed.

Standing on the seat that felt slippery and yet strangely warm, the two foals were able to peer down the belly of the beast. There appeared to be some sort of hole or opening at the very bottom, albeit a very narrow one. Maybe it expanded somehow? More interesting though, was the presence of water. Sparkling clear water that seemed to resemble a mirror with the way it reflected the faces of the two.

“We gots to get down there!” Fluttershy pointed at the hole! “That must be where Mommy is!”

The little colt shuddered. “But how, we no can swim that far down. There too much water.”

Just then, the older pegasus turned her attention to the silvery ramp like object resting just off to her left. For some reason she felt drawn to it, as if under some kind of spell. Maybe that was how the opening got wider? Maybe it was what made the strange sound she’d heard? Well, there was only one way to find out.

Flapping her wings, Fluttershy flew to the ramp like object and grabbed hold of it before managing to force it down with all her might! In the process she strained herself so much that she began to flood her diaper.


When the handle was forced down, a mighty roar rang out! The device seemed to surge to life as the waters started spinning around and around, nearly splashing out of the bowl in the process!

Fluttershy was frightened, and Zephyr Breeze even more so! It was indeed a monster, and it had been awakened and was ready to eat!

Thinking quickly, Zephyr did the only thing he could think of doing! As soon as his sister landed back on the seat he pushed her into the bowl! “Take her instead, monster! Leave me alone!” And then he jumped down from the seat and ran off, leaving Fluttershy to spin helplessly about with the waters!

Zephyr ran out of the room with the monster and out of the bathroom, wanting to get as far away as he could! He didn’t even care that his own diaper flew right off with how fast he was running.

But he hadn’t gotten far when a familiar female voice from a familiar female pegasus with glasses called out. “Zephyr Breeze? What is going on? What happened to your diaper? And where’s your sister?”

“Mommy!” Zephyr exclaimed in happy relief as he lept up and hugged her tightly! “Ya safe! Monster not get ya after all!”

“What monster?” Mrs. Shy asked her toddler son. “Mommy just needed to lay down for a little while, that’s all. She thought you and your sister were in your cribs, napping.”

“I was, Mommy. But then big sis say she see you go into bathroom and not come back out. She say monster get you,” Zephyr explained. “So we go looking for you or for Daddy, and we find monster in room next to bathroom. But Fluttershy anger it, so I offer her to monster instead of me.”

Mrs. Shy only sighed and shook her head. “Zephyr Breeze, haven’t I told you and your sister that there’s no such thing as monsters?” And she then trotted to the bathroom while explaining. “What you saw was a modern throne toilet, it comes with a seat and looks like a big bowl. It’s even made of something called porcelain. As for the noise, your sister likely pressed the handle down, activating the flush cycle. The flush cycle takes everything in the toilet and pulls it down the drain.”

“Even big sis?!” Zephyr gasped in concern, now afraid that he might have actually endangered a member of his family.

Mrs. Shy replied. “I don’t think so. Your sister is too big to fit. Her tail might get stuck though,” She trotted into the room adjacent to the bathroom where the toilet was. The flush cycle had long since stopped.

Sure enough, resting down at the bottom of the bowl and just above the drain, was a very unhappy Fluttershy was soaking wet. Her diaper had swelled up with toilet water to the point where it looked like a balloon ready to pop. She really couldn’t move much and didn’t want to, afraid of what might happen if her diaper stopped blocking the drain.

Mrs. Shy simply reached a hoof down to pull her stuck foal free, gently plopping her onto a series of prepared towels as the water in the toilet bowl started to refill. “Oh, just look at you,” She frowned at her daughter. “Dripping wet with toilet water. And now you’ll need a new diaper,” She then declared. “You really shouldn’t be exploring places like the bathroom, Fluttershy. And you and your brother shouldn’t be playing with the toilet, something bad could happen.”

“Sorry, Mommy,” Fluttershy blushed. “But Zephyr the one who knock me in and leave me. I nearly went down the hole because of him.”

Mrs. Shy only scolded. “Both of you were very naughty foals. It’s lucky for you I finally woke up from my nap,” And she sighed. “At this rate, I don’t think either of you are gonna be ready for potty training any time soon.”

“Potty training?” Zephyr and Fluttershy blinked together.

Mrs. Shy nodded. “Yes, that’s when you start leaving your diapers and do all your business in the toilet. Although in most cases, ponies buy a training one first and then you graduate to the actual toilet at a later date,” She then looked down at Zephyr Breeze. “Maybe you’d like to try it out? It’s really quite simple, actually. What do you say, Zephyr?”

“Nu-uh!” Zephyr protested. Not only was he was still afraid of the flush despite now knowing it was what made that awful sound, but he didn’t like the idea of having to get rid of his diapers and do all his business in some strange bowl made of a strange material he’d never heard of before. He’d much rather stick to diapers. He knew they were safe and he knew that as long as he wore them he could count on his parents to change him after he did anything.

Fluttershy also added. “I no wanna potty train yet either, Mommy.”

“Well, that’s okay,” Mrs. Shy reluctantly replied. “It’s important not to rush you into it before either of you are ready. Your father didn’t think we should potty train you yet, and now I think I’ll agree with him. Maybe when you’re both a little older we can try again,” Then she turned her attention to her soaking wet daughter and not diapered son. “But first, I need to give you a bath, Fluttershy. And put you and your brother into clean diapers.” And she led them out of the room with the toilet and back to the bathroom proper.


But Zephyr Breeze never really felt bothered to learn how to potty train. He felt comfortable in his diapers and knew his parents would keep changing him for as long as they felt he “wasn’t ready” to start his training.

It was more or less the same with Fluttershy, even though she was older and was expected to be the example. In her case it was because she just didn’t feel brave enough to try, afraid of a repeat of her first encounter with the toilet at the hooves of her brother.

In fact it would not be until Flutttershy starting attending playdates with Rainbow Dash that she would start picking up the courage and motivation to start training. And it would take both pegasi to provide the encouragement, motivation and sometimes even the force to make Zephyr Breeze give up his diapers. Which was how Zephyr first started to take an interest in Rainbow, much to the future Wonderbolt’s annoyance.

“Ya sure we have to keep doing this?” Rainbow once asked Fluttershy. “Your brother annoys me so much I wanna feed him to the potty monster and be done with it!”

Fluttershy shook her head. “He’s gotta get out of diapers if he doesn’t wanna be teased and picked on. He has to learn how to take care of himself. And if my mommy and daddy won’t train him, we have to encourage him ourselves.”

Zephyr Breeze then came trotting past with a smile on his face. “Besides, Rainbow. Ya totally want me to be a big pony like you and like big sis. You wouldn’t wanna have to start changing me, would ya?”

Rainbow just groaned as she and Fluttershy led Zephyr to the bathroom. “Just get in there and sit on the potty! And if ya keep bothering me I not gonna help ya learn how to be a big pony any more.”

Zephyr only grinned as he entered into the bathroom, pulling down his padding in preparation for what he had to do. “Rainbow Dash would never do anything bad to me. She likes me too much,” He thought to himself. “And once I’m a big pony like her, I gotta find a way to let her know just how much she means to me.
