//------------------------------// // A New Day // Story: Where I Do Belong in Equestria // by Ghostbusters2021 //------------------------------// Leo woke up seeing Sunset beside, "Hello sweetie, how was your sleep ?" She ask as Leo nodded. "Good, now let's give you your bath." Then Sunset picked him up and brought him inside the bathroom. After they were done they put on new clothes and head downstairs, Twilight, Spike and the girls were waiting for them at the dining room and they soon joined them. Sunset told them everything about Leo's past life, they were shocked and felt sorry for him. "Say Leo, why don't I adopt you ?" Sunset ask. Leo looked at her with surprise, "R-really, y-you want to adopt me ?" He ask as Sunset nodded. "Yes sweetie, ever since you came to Equestria. You always hugged me everytime you sleep, so that's why I wanted to adopt you." Sunset explained. Leo couldn't believe his eyes as he hugged Sunset tightly, "I-I love you mom." He said as Sunset looked down at him with a smile on her face. "I love you too sweetie," Sunset replied as she returned the hug. "Now let's get you registered to some education," Twiliht said as all of them exited the castle and head towards the school. Upon arriving there a trio of fillies came up to them, "Hi big sis'!" They called out. "Hey Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo. We want to ask you something," Rarity said. "Sure Rarity, what is it ?" Sweetie Belle ask as the girls revealed Leo who was hiding behind Sunset. "Girls, meet Sunset's adopted son Leo." Then she turned to the shy colt. "Leo, this is Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo. Applejack, Rainbow Dash and I are their sisters." Rarity explained as Leo came out of hiding. "Hi Leo, it's nice to meet ypu." Sweetie Belle said as Leo smiled at her. "Thank you," Leo replied as Scootaloo and Apple Bloom joined in. "Woah, y-you're an alicorn ?" Scootaloo ask, "Yes Scootaloo, I am alicorn." Leo replied as he revealed his wings. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom were amazed by this as all four them began to play, the girls then went inside to get Leo registered for school. Once they're done they told Leo that they will be going to Town Hall to fill in Leo's adoption forms, so the three fillies began playing with Leo in the school playground until the bell rang and went back inside. There Leo meets the teacher, her name is Ms. Cheerilee and she will be teaching all of them about math. As they were paying attention to the teacher he really enjoyed the subject, soon they all exited the school. Since it's still a little early Leo decided to play with Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo to pass the time. They were busy playing catching the ball as it flew straight at Leo, "Gah!" He screamed as his horn started glowing. The ball suddenly bounced off of him as a shield of some kind formed in front of him, "Huh ?" Leo ask as looked at the shield. 'This must be a move called Hardened, it can only be used by rock type pokemons.' He thought. "Leo, are you alright ?" Sweetie Belle ask. "Yeah, I'm fine. Let me go get the ball," Leo said as he went to get the ball back. But unknown to him, two fillies were watching him from behind the school. "So the alicorn colt himself has arrived at our school," The pink filly named Diamond Tiara said. "Sure is Diamond, but he will learn the way our school is." The grey filly named Silver Spoon replied. "Come on Silver," Diamond Tiara said as they left. Leo soon retrieved the ball and they resume playing, "Catch Leo!" Scootaloo shouted as she tossed the ball to Leo who tries to catch it. "Almost got it," He said as he was about to catch the ball when somebody tripped him over. "Ow," He groan as the three fillies rushed towards him. "You okay ?" Sweetie Belle ask as Leo nodded. "Well well Silver, look who we have here." Came a voice as the four turned and saw Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon coming out of hiding, "Hello girls, it's nice to see you." Diamond Tiara said. "What do ya' want Diamond Tiara ?" Apple Bloom ask. "Me and Silver saw you three playing with the new alicorn," Diamond said while pointing a finger at Leo. "He should play with some rich ponies like us instead of playing with you blank flanks," Silver Spoon added. Leo gritted his teeth at such insult to his new friends, "Don't dare called them blank flanks!" He shouted. "Oh yeah ? Look at them, they don't have cutie-marks! Hahahahaha!" The two laughed. Leo felt his anger boiling mad as he got up and got up and looked at the two rich fillies, "Shadow Ball!" He screamed as his horn lit up in dark aura. Suddenly a giant ball of shadow appeared as the two fiillies saw this and was shocked, "Let me warn, call my friends blank flanks again and you will see some consequences. Understand ?" He growled as Diamond and Silver nodded their nervously. "Good," Then the shadow ball disappeared and the two left. He looks back at his friends and saw their shocked expressions, "Thank you Leo," Scootaloo spoke. "You really helped us," Sweetie Belle added. Then they went back inside the school, school soon finished by noon as all of the students rushed outside to join their parents. Leo reunited with Sunset as theu head back to the castle, there they started eating lunch as enjoyed their time together. After they finsihed, Leo decided to take a nap as Sunset brought him the room. "Sleep tight sweetie," She said in a motherly tone as she tucked him in nice and cozy. Sunset joined him as the two slept together like mother and son, Twilight looked inside and smiled. 'I'm glad Leo found a new home in Equestria,' She thought as she let the two be.
