//------------------------------// // An Easter Surprise // Story: A Medicine Cat among Ponies // by Kitsulestia //------------------------------// *Spottedleaf's POV* I ask "Twilight, what's Easter?" Twilight spoke "Well, It’s kind of hard to explain." I spoke "It's completely unknown back in my old world." Yellowfang spoke "Spottedleaf has a point Twi, Easter's a foreign concept to her and I since it was more a Twoleg holiday." Twilight spoke "I see." But then Lyra Heartstrings showed up. “Twoleg?! As in humans?!” Suddenly, Yellowfang and I were up on the ceiling. Yellowfang spoke "Fer StarClan's sake, don't scare me and Spotted like that!" Twilight spoke "Sorry Lyra but I don't know what a human is." Lyra spoke "You don’t know?! Well, it has been a long time since we saw each other in Canterlot." Twilight spoke "That may be so but I'm a bit taller than the last time you saw me." I spoke "Town lunatic..." Lyra asks "Huh?" Twilight spoke "Don't mind Leaf, she's unfamiliar with a lot of holidays like Hearths Warming Eve and Easter." Lyra spoke "Oh. Okay. Ooh! Don’t forget Hearts and Hooves Day!" Yellowfang and I were confused. Yellowfang asks "What's that?" Lyra spoke "Well…" Bonbon drags Lyra away by the tail. Bonbon spoke "Sorry about this girls but Lyra can be a bit crazy at times." Twilight spoke "Yeah. I noticed." Bonbon sighs "Plus Lyra's a siren..." I spoke "That was interesting to say the least." Pinkie spoke "Hi!" I yowl "StarClan's sake Pinkie! You nearly gave me a heart attack~!" Pinkie spoke "Oops! Sorry! Just wanted to say it’s all ready!" I ask "What's ready?" Yellowfang and I soon had blindfolds on as Pinkie and Twilight lead the two of us over to where the others were. “What’s going on?” I asked. Yellowfang spoke "That's what Ah wanna know." Soon the blindfolds were taken off of us. Everyone spoke "Surprise!" The children were doing an Easter egg hunt. I spoke "Great StarClan, this looks amazing!" Twilight spoke "Yep. Pinkie and Cheese made it for you two." Blizzardstar spoke "Correction, it's for all of us." “R-Really?” I asked in surprise. Big Mac spoke "Eyup." I hugged Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie while crying happy tears. Azure spoke "Ya, ya, ya, ya, yo! Everybody put their hooves, paws and claws together and clap 'em as loud as you can. Flap 'em, clap 'em. I don't care, slap 'em!" Rainbow and the other Pegasi fly about while singing Hot Wings. I dance with Frostleaf while singing along to the song, finally finding the rhythm in my heart. Suddenly, I float up into the sky before becoming engulfed in light. “What in the?!” I gasped before my back felt itchy. In a burst of raw magic, a pair of wings in the same coloration as my fur burst out from my back. I soon land on the ground in a daze. Yellowfang asks "Spottedleaf, is that you?" Getting back up, I flare out my newly obtained wings thus surprising everyone around me. Rainbow Dash asks "What the what?!" I ask "What are you all looking at?" Twilight and Danyelle spoke "You have wings!" I spoke "Guess I'm gonna need flying lessons." Rainbow Dash spoke "I can help!" I spoke "Cool your jets Skittles, I just got my wings you know? I should take it slow first before I start pulling off any stunts." Fluttershy asks "U-Um… Maybe I can help?" I spoke "Sure." Yellowfang asks "That makes what, nine alicorns now?" Cadence trots over with an alicorn filly on her back. Cadence giggles "Make that ten now." Twilight asks "Huh? Who’s that?" Cadence spoke "Meet your niece, Flurry Heart. Danyelle had sensed it in one of her visions shortly after I had Flurry." Twilight gasps "You mean… I’m an aunt?" Cadence spoke "Yep and it seems I'm an aunt to your three daughters." Twilight spoke "This… is… AMAZING!" Flurry cooed before attempting to fly over to Twilight. Twilight spoke "Aww!!!" Nyx, Akari and Strawberry were curious about their cousin. Flurry noticed the three and smiled before trying to fly down towards them. Twilight spoke "Aww! I think she wants to play!" Flash spoke "It's never too early to make friends." Cadence spoke "Heehee! We can agree on that." I spoke "Hey Cadence." I had kept my wings folded so Cadence wouldn't notice. Cadence teases "Hey, Spotted. *Smirk* You and Frost gonna have any kittens yet?" A sudden POMF was heard since my newly acquired wings had shot up on end. Blushing, I spoke "Cadence!" Cadence spoke "*Smugly* Gotcha." Twilight spoke "I swear Cadence, you're just like Celestia at times..." Cadence giggles "She is my adoptive aunt after all." Danyelle was giggling since she had seen something rather interesting in her future sight. Rainbow Dash asks "Huh? What gives?" Danyelle spoke "Sorry girls, I can't tell you until the time is right." Rainbow Dash and Pinkie spoke "Aw!!!" Danyelle spoke "If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise." Pinkie gasps "You’re right!" Danyelle spoke "Exactly." Rainbow Dash spoke "Fine." Lucy spoke "Wow Dash, you're quite impatient." Azure chuckles "Eh, Dashie and I both are. Especially when it comes to having fun. Right, Skittles?" Rainbow Dash spoke "Oh, you bet, blue colt." I had the first book of the Daring Do series in my magic as I moved it about in Rainbow's line of sight. I spoke "You'd like this series though, the main character is a lot like you." Rainbow Dash spoke "What?! Reading books?! No thank you!" I spoke "this particular book was signed by Daring Do herself." I saw Rainbow Dash started to sweat as she tried to stay strong, so I decided to push her a little further. I spoke "She's quite an adventurous mare, brave too. Just like you." Rainbow Dash was close to breaking, so I decided to push her over the edge. Scorching snickers "Deny it all she wants, she'll cave sooner or later." Snowfall giggles "Heehee, so true sis." I spoke "Plus I met her once when I was about 12 years old." Rainbow Dash was visibly wibbling and wobbling from side to side. Heeheeheehee! Just one more little push! I giggle "And she's fearless, just like you." Twilight spoke "*Smirk* And totally..." Danyelle giggles "*Smirk* Undeniably..." "Unstoppable!" Twilight, Danyelle and I finished as Rainbow Dash broke, grabbing the book in a flash. Scorching snickers "Well, you three have officially broke her!" Twilight, Danyelle and I fistbumped/hoofbumped with victorious smiles on our faces. Twilight spoke "Not to mention, Rainbow's birthday is coming up." Rainbow gasps "How did you...?" Twilight spoke "Pinkie." Rainbow spoke "Go figure." The party soon ended. I giggle "That was a great party Pinkie." Pinkie giggles "Heehee! Thanks." Danyelle spoke "Something tells me we might be heading to Appleloosa soon." End
