The Golden Child

by Fusionflare374


Chapter 1: Lost (edited the beginning)

It was a nice and warm morning for the human race. People starting to wake up or playing outside with their friends. It was just a normal morning, but then it all changed when a town was burning, people screaming and explosions filled the morning sky. Outside of the town in a forest not too far from the town, was a child running for dear life as three robots were chasing him.

“Don’t let him escape!” said one of the droids.

The child didn’t have time to catch his breath or rest as the droids were right on his tail. The child looked back to see the droids were far from him so he stopped to catch his for a second before running again. He thought he was in the clear, but then he had to stop because their was a cliff in front of him. He was going to turn back, but the droids caught up with him and surrounded him. The kid back up to the cliff until he was at the edge of the cliff.

He looked down to see an dark abyss and certain death.

“Surrender and come with us to our queen or we will do take you by force.” said another droid.

The child has two choices. Surrender to the droids or jump off the cliff to certain doom. He knew what he had to do. He turned to the cliff and jumped off. The droids tried to grab him but failed to do so.

As the kid was was about to accept his demise one thought came to his mind...

*I’m sorry momma... I’m sorry papa* and with a single tear in his each of his eyes, he closed his eyes for his demise. As the droids watch the child fall to his death, they saw a dark blue glow surrounding the kid and he vanished.

“What just happened?” Said one of the droids.

“Beats me.” said another droid.

“What are we going to say to the general?” The third one said.

The two droids shrugged at the question.

Then the droids heard one of the droids comm go off and the droid with the comm answered it. It showed a illusion of a cyborg with a mask hiding his face.

“Status report.” the cyborg said in his deep and raspy voice.

“We surrounded the child like you said sir.” the droid said.

“Did you captured him?” Said the cyborg.

“No, he jump off a cliff as we surrounded him.” said the droid.

“Then get his dead corpse off the cliff floor and bring him to the queen. I’m sure she doesn’t care if he’s dead or not.” the cyborg commanded.

“We can’t, he teleported before he hit the ground.” the droid said.

“WHAT?!” The cyborg yelled

“Their was a blue glow surrounding the child and he vanished.” the droid said sounding a little scared from the outburst of his general.

The general growled, then started to talk again.

“Return to base and show what evidence you have with the child’s disappearance to the queen.” the cyborg commanded.

The three droids nodded and the general hanged up.

“We are going to get scraped when we show the evidence to the queen.” one of the droids said sadly.

“Roger roger.” said the other two in agreement.

The three robots then left the scene and went to go back to the base.


It was a bright sunny day with few clouds keeping the sun company. Ponies were outside enjoying the day, filly’s playing outside with their friends, and ponies shopping for groceries. It was a nice and peaceful day for everypony. outside of a little town named Ponyville, is a big city with a castle called Canterlot. Canterlot is where the rich and fancy ponies live as well as the rulers of Equestia.

Outside of the castle is a garden where one of the rulers is outside enjoying her book, while drink her tea. This rulers name is princess Celestia. Princess Celestia was enjoying her afternoon after her boring and stressful court meetings. Since she has time before her next meeting, she decided to use her time outside. She looked up at the sky and she saw something falling, but she couldn’t know what it was.

As she took a closer look, it was a filly falling out of the sky. Concerned for the fillies safety, Celestia dropped her tea and bolted to the filly. As the filly was about to hit the ground, Celestia used her magic to stop the filly from falling. She brought the filly up to her hooves and cradled the filly. As she took a look at the filly, it was not a pony but a different creature.

The creature had no fur except on the top of its head. It has clothing and glasses. It’s sausage - like hooves and legs are like of a dragon but without the scales.

What kind of creature Are you? Celestia thought.

Celestia decided to bring the creature to the royal garden to get the creature on ground.

I wonder how this poor creature was falling out the sky? Celestia thought.

Celestia waited for the creature to wake up, which only took 5 minutes. The child started to open his eyes and he rubbed his eyes to have a clearer view and the first sight he saw was a large white pony with magenta eyes and a tiara on its head. He also noticed that it had a horn and wings. Their was awkward silence for 10 seconds before Celestia spoke up.

“Hello young one.” Celestia said warmly.

The child then started to scream in fright and back himself up on a wall.

“P-please don’t h-hurt me!” the child said in a frightened tone and covering his face with his hands

Celestia’s heart broke when he covered his face in fear.

“Oh you poor thing, I didn’t mean to scare you. I’m very sorry for scaring you my dear.” Celestia said concerned.

Celestia laid down next to the child and gently put her wing on his small figure. She could feel him shaking a little. She moved her wing up and down slowly on the little boy until he calmed down. When he finally stopped shaking he looked up at Celestia.

“You’re n-not gonna h-hurt me?” He said weakly.

“Why would I ever hurt a cute little thing like yourself.” Celestia said warmly.

She boop the little ones nose, which made him giggle a little.

“Oh where are my manners, my name is princess Celestia, ruler of Equestia and the one who rises and lowers the sun. What is your name little one?” Celestia said softly.

“M-my name is Austin.” Austin said quietly.

“It’s nice to meet you Austin.” Celestia said warmly.

“I-it’s nice to meet you t-to princess Celestia.” Austin said as he bowed his head down.

Celestia’s heart melted when he bowed his head down.

“Rise your head little one, you don’t need to bow your head for me dear.” Celestia said warmly.

“B-but it a way of s-showing respect.” Austin said.

“And it is very nice for you to do that, but you don’t need to if you want.” Celestia said softly.

“O-ok princess Celestia.” Austin said weakly.

“You can just call me Celestia if you like to dear,” Celestia said warmly.

“O-ok Celestia” Austin said.

He scooted closer to her and gave her a little hug.

Celestia aww’d at the little one hugging her.

“If I princess may ask, what kind of species are you?” Celestia said curiously.

“I-I’m a human b-being. What is y-your species?” Austin said curiously as well.

“I am an alicorn.” Celestia said warmly.

“An alicorn?” Austin said curiously.

“Indeed young one, but they’re many more types other than an alicorn.” Celestia said softly.

“How many?” Austin said curiously.

“They’re three types of ponies. There is a unicorn, Pegasus, and a ground pony.” Celestia explained.

“What do each o-of these ponies d-do?” Austin said curiously.

“I’m so glad you asked that Austin,” Celestia said warmly. “unicorns can use magic to do many difficult task or practice spell to defend themselves or for fun. Pegasi can fly with their wings and can control the weather as well. Ground ponies don’t have a horn nor wings, but they can be excellent runners and kickers.” Celestia explained.

“A-and Alicorns has b-both wings and horns?” Austin said curiously.

“That’s right dear, Alicorns do have both wings and horns.” Celestia said softly.

“W-woah.” Austin said with a sparkle in his eyes.

“Indeed young one.” Celestia smiled at him

“H-how many Alicorns a-are there here?” Austin said curiously.

“There is four alicorns, there used to be three but we recently got a new Alicorn,” Celestia said warmly.

“What are their names?” Austin said in curiosity.

“There is my sister Luna, my niece Cadance and my faithful student and a good friend Twilight Sparkle.” Celestia said softly.

“T-that is so c-cool.” Austin said in awe.

“Maybe one day you can met some of them, my sister is here in the castle, but the other two are close by or far away.” Celestia said warmly

After talking for a long period of time, Austin’s stomach started to growl. Austin blushed in embarrassment and Celestia chuckled a little bit.

“Would you like to have something to eat?” Celestia said softly.

“S-sure.” Austin said nicely.

“Would you like to climb on my back or walk while holding my tail or hoof?” Celestia said softly.

“I would like to g-go on your back if t-that’s ok with you.” Austin said quietly.

“Yes it is quite alright.” Celestia said warmly.

Celestia put her wing that was on Austin back to her and used it as a ramp for him to climb up.

“A-are you sure? I don’t want to h-hurt your wing.” Austin said nervously.

“Don’t worry, you won’t hurt my wing. They are quite strong, so my wings will be fine.” Celestia said softly.

“Ok.” Austin said still a little nervous.

Austin gently climb up Celestia’s wing and got on her back.

“Ready?” Celestia said warmly.

“R-ready.” Austin said weakly.

Celestia stood up to her full height. She felt Austin shake a little.

“Are you ok?” Celestia said concerned.

“Y-yeah I’m fine.” Austin said quietly.

“Ok,” Celestia said softly.

Celestia and Austin then started to make their way to the dining room to get some food. As they were making their way to the dining room, Austin saw some other ponies smaller than Celestia but bigger than him. The ponies were looking at Austin out of curiosity or disgust. Austin was going to wave at them, but had a horrible flashback and made the ponies look like the droids that chased him and decided not to wave at them. Celestia and Austin finally made it to the dining room and Celestia knelt down to let Austin on the floor and they both sat down on the chairs.

“Good afternoon princess Celestia.” the maid said to the princess.

“Good afternoon to you too.” Celestia said happily.

“Who is this little cutie?” The maid said gesturing to Austin, which made Austin blush a little.

“This is Austin, I found him all alone and I decided to take care of him, if that is alright with you.” Celestia said softly.

“Y-yeah I would like that.” Austin said smiling at Celestia.

Celestia looked at him with a warm smile on her face.

“What can I get you too?” The maid said nicely.

“I would like a salad please.” Celestia said nicely.

“Ok and what about you young one?” the maid said to Austin.

“I-I’m not sure, w-what do ponies normally eat Celestia?” Austin said quietly.

Celestia put a hoof on her chin to think. Then she had an thought.

“Would you like a daisy sandwich?” Celestia asked warmly.

“A daisy s-sandwich? I n-never tried it before.” Austin said quietly.

“I’m sure you might like it. Do you want to try it?” Celestia asked softly.

“S-sure.” Austin said quietly.

“Coming right up you two.” the maid said as she began to trot to the kitchen to ask the chef to prepare their food.

“So Austin, do you know how you got here?” Celestia said curiously.

“N-no, I remember I was falling a-and all of a sudden I woke up to see you” Austin said honestly.

“Why were you falling?” Celestia said concerned.

“I don’t know, my m-memory is a little fuzzy, s-sorry.” Austin said sadly.

“You don’t need to apologize to me if you don’t remember.” Celestia said warmly.

Celestia knew he was hiding something from her, but didn’t want to bring it up because he looks upset to talk about it.

As Celestia and Austin were waiting for their food, they heard footsteps from behind them. They both turned around to see a dark blue Alicorn with night sky mane and tail. She has light blue hoof shoes and a black chest plate on her chest. She also has a black tiara and her eyes are moderate cyan.

“Good afternoon Lulu.” Celestia said happily.

“Good afternoon Tia.” the pony said mumbling.

The pony rubbed her eyes to clear her vision and saw Austin, who was shaking behind Celestia’s mane.

“Tia who is this little guy?” The pony said.

“Luna this is Austin, Austin this is Luna.” Celestia said softly to the little child.

“Hi there Austin.” Luna said softly.

Austin hid in Celestia’s mane and was shaking rapidly.

Luna looked at Celestia with a concerned look on her face.

“It’s ok dear she won’t hurt you, no pony will.” Celestia said warmly.

Austin came out of Celestia’s mane carefully to introduce himself.

“H-hi my name is Austin. I-I’m sorry I hid f-from you.” Austin said sadly and stood up and did a bow from his chest as he apologize.

Luna looked at him with a warm smile and knelt down to his height.

“It’s is very nice to meet you and you are a very gentlecolt. You don’t need to bow for me and it is ok, you looked a little scared.” Luna said warmly.

Celestia was smiling at the two interacting, but Celestia sense something troubling the little one, but she will ask him later about that.

“Your food is ready.” the maid said with their food on the table.

“Thank you.” Celestia said.

The maid nodded and left the dining room. Austin looked at his sandwich and there is daisies and cucumbers on the buns. As he was going to take a bite, he heard Luna’s stomach growled. She blush in embarrassment of her stomach growling. Austin looked at his sandwich and took his knife that the maid provided and carefully cut his sandwich in half. He looked at Luna and offered a piece to her. She blushed at this and gave him a little hug.

“You have a pure soul Austin, never change that about yourself. I know we just met but I know we will be best of friends.” Luna said warmly.

“I a-always help out the people who need it the most. That’s what my p-parents taught me.” Austin said softly. His smile then went to a frown to the thought of his parents. A tear came down from his eyes and he didn’t realize it.

“Austin, are you alright?” Luna and Celestia said concerned.

“Oh y-yeah I’m fine. I j-just miss my parents that’s all.” Austin said softly. He wipe his tears off his face a forced a smile on his face to show that he was “fine”.

Celestia and Luna looked at each other with concerned looks. They then went back to eating.

Celestia canceled her meetings so that she can spend time with Austin and Luna. Celestia and Luna didn’t want to ask what’s wrong with Austin until he is ready to tell them. It was turning night time and Luna showed him how she raises the moon and he was amazed by it. Celestia wanted to show Austin where he will be sleeping and Austin followed pursuit.

“This is where you will be sleeping if that’s ok with you.” Celestia said warmly.

“Y-yeah that’s alright with m-me.” Austin said quietly.

“Ok dear let’s get you to sleep.” Celestia said softly to him.

Austin nodded and Austin went to the left side of the bed that was near a balcony that goes outside.

“I’ll be joining you soon dear, I just got to do something really quick, ok sweetie?” Celestia said warmly.

“Ok C-Celestia.” Austin said quietly.

“Good night sweetie.” Celestia did and gave Austin a kiss on the forehead.

“Good n-night Celestia.” Austin said softly.

Celestia left Austin in her bedroom for him to sleep. Austin took a while to sleep as he said one thing that came to his mind before he fell asleep...

I love you momma and papa... always.

Then Austin fell asleep shortly after saying that.

Celestia had a scroll and quill. She then started to write.

Dear Twilight Sparkle,

Today I have found a new species that I didn’t know and it is known as a human. The human’s name is Austin and he is very nice and pure, but something is troubling him, but I don’t want to ask him about that yet. If you have time tomorrow could you and your other friends come to Canterlot? Don’t worry, I’ll provide the tickets for your arrival if you have the time.

Yours truly,
Princess Celestia.

Celestia used her magic to teleport the scroll to her faithful student. Celestia made a soft yawn and went back to her quarters where Austin was sleeping and went to the other side of the bed and fell asleep with Austin close by her side.


A video tape showed Austin falling before the glow surrounded him and vanished.

“Is that all droids?” The female voice said.

“Yes your highness.” one of the droids said.

“You three are dismissed.” the female voice said.

The three droids left her chambers. The female voice chuckled to herself.

“You can run, but you can’t hide Golden Child. I will get what I want, even use your own against you.” the female voice said to herself before she made an evil laugh that can be heard all over the place.
