It was just another day in Jamestown. I was doing my daily work at the movie theater, handing out tickets to people of all kinds. Some who were extremely nice, some stuck up, some shy, some overly hyper, some mellow and some who seemed a bit jumpy. It was like any normal day, and I dealt with it like usual. My boss had made me stay extra hours of the day for the summer enthusiasts who were getting out of school, for he knew I could handle it. Some of the people who came in were people I knew, and of course some tried to pull the 'we're friends card' on me to get in for cheap or even free, and me being the good employee that I am, told them they had to pay full charge or no movie, and of course they would either pay or walk away, saying things like, "Whatever, friend."
Half the day has passed and I am going on lunch break and I let my boss know. I step outside and I was heading to my car, when all of the sudden I hear the screech of tires from my left. A male driver has lost control of his SUV and I am right in his path. With no time to react, I brace for impact, hoping I would somehow survive this. As soon as I was hit, it was almost instantaneous blackout, as my head hit the hood of the vehicle. I had felt the pain for a split second and heard people screaming, telling me to hang in there once I was on the ground, and then nothing. If I had survived the impact, there would be no doubt I would be in the hos....... 'What the, what was I thinking about? Now every thing has gone blank. I don't know what's happening. I know I'm here, but where am I? Who am I? What am I? It feels so.... warm, and safe. I can't see anything though, what is going on?' I think to myself.
'Wait, I feel like I'm moving, I don't know how, but I feel it. What is that noise I hear?' I ask myself again.
"It's a colt your majesty," I hear someone say.
'Your majesty? What does that mean? It feels so cold all of the sudden.' I think to myself once again.
I do not like feeling cold and I don't know what else to do, with my eye's still shut, I begin to cry, wanting the warmth back. I could feel myself being moved once again, then I was laid down on something hard. It was colder then everywhere else I was feeling at the moment. As I was crying, I felt something being put in my mouth and it felt as if they were poking me, making me cough, soon after I was moving again, and this time I was laying on top of something soft, then it felt as If it was wrapping itself around me.
I was feeling warm again, but I was still crying, for I felt uncomfortable, laying where I was right now. I feel myself being picked up and then I feel something or someone else grab me. I calmed down while whoever grabbed me made me feel comfortable again and added extra warmth. When I finally feel myself calm down enough, I decide to open my eyes, slowly to adjust to the light. "Oh, look he's opening his little eyes big sister," I hear someone say.
As my eyes clear up I see two figures looking down at me. One of them was a cream white and seemed kind but looked like they were powerful as well. The other one, the one holding me, was dark blue, and looked much like the one next to her. But there was something about her that made me feel safe, and content. I couldn't explain it, but she was definitely someone I knew would not harm me. She seemed to have tears dripping from her face as she says, "So you're the little one that's been kicking me?"
I wasn't sure what she meant by that, but I didn't think about it for long once she brought me close to her face and started nuzzling me. It made me feel even more secure and I smiled as I nuzzled her back with my little head. I did not know who she was, but I did not want to be pulled away from her. "What will you name him, little sister?" the white colored figure asks.
"I'll name this little pony Moon Dust. He looks so much like his father," The dark colored figure says as she lifted her head away.
"But he has your eyes Luna," the white figure says.
'A pony? That's what I am? Well, that must be what they are because looking at myself, I seem to look like them.' I think to myself as I look at my body which was a black color.
"What's that you got there honey? A hoof, did you find a hoof?" The dark blue colored pony asks me in a soothing voice.
I don't know why, but her talking to me like that made me smile even more. She then places one of her own, 'hooves' as she called it in front of me, and I was really curious so I grabbed onto it with my two free hooves and pulled it down, to my face and began suckling on it. "Aww, now that's just too cute," I hear somepony from behind me say.
I stop suckling and look behind me, to see another pony, a little smaller then the other two, and had a color lighter then than the one holding me, but darker the the white colored pony. I really don't know what to think about all of this and was a little frightened, for this is my first time seeing anything that I can seem to remember, so I look at the new stranger with curiosity. "Looks like you startled him a bit dear. He was just born, and everything around him is new to him, so don't scare him too much," the white pony says.
I look at the white pony once more. "Hello there little one, I'm your Aunt Celestia, and this is your Aunt Twilight," Celestia said as she points at the lavender colored pony.
I look at her and then at Twilight identifying who they are. My attention is turned back to the pony holding me as she says, "And I'm your mommy, Moon Dust."
'So the one holding me that they call Luna is my mommy and my name is Moon Dust?' I think once more. Well I didn't want mommy to let me go, but then I felt something in my belly. I couldn't tell what this feeling was, and then I heard my belly make a sound. "Oh my, sounds like a certain little pony is hungry. Twilight, Celestia, doctors, would you mind giving us some privacy for a little while," my mom says.
"Of course not little sister," my Aunt Celestia says.
Soon everypony left except for my mother and she places me down on a soft surface on my belly as she positioned herself in front of me. I then hear her say as she places her body close to mine, "Go on son, drink up. You will need this if you want to grow big and strong dear."
Her words were reassuring and as I looked in front of me, I see something on her body, nearly poking me in the face. I was once again curious and began to suckle on it as I did with her hoof and she places one of her wings over me, making it look darker, which I didn't mind, and it was helping me stay warm. As I suckled from my mother, I was surprised to feel something warm and wet enter my mouth. It tasted sweet though and I began to swallow it and soon more of the sweet tasting treat entered my mouth as I as I suckled and swallowed it. As I was drinking, The strange feeling in my belly was starting to disappear. I guess drinking whatever my mom was giving me as I suckled from her, was taking away what she called 'hunger', so I continued to drink until my belly said the hunger was gone.
Once I was finished my mother picks me back up and places me next to her head. She then pats my back gently with what I think is her hoof. What happened next surprised me. My mouth made a noise, after I felt like something was pushing up from inside of my belly. "Buurp" is what I lightly hear and then my mom says, "There we go, all fed and burped. Let's have your aunts come back in. There's a few more aunts and an uncle who want to see you."
'I have more aunts, and an uncle? Who are they? What do they look like? I want to see them,' I think in my head, because right now, I could not talk like everypony else, all I could make were noises even I couldn't understand.
As my Mother holds me in a comfortable position again I see Aunt Celestia and aunt Twilight walk in along with seven other ponies. One of them looked exactly like Aunt Twilight and Aunt Celestia, but had a pink color. Two of them had wings like my Aunt Twilight and Aunt Celestia, but no horn, two had a horn and no wings and two of them had no wings and no horns. I wondered who they all were and then my Aunt Twilight says as she points to the other ponies, "Moon Dust, these are your aunts, Cadence, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. And this is your Uncle Shining Armor. They all came here to see you today."
'Wow, I have a lot of aunts, and a powerful looking uncle' I think to myself.
"Hi hi hi Prince Moon Dust. You look so cute," my Aunt Pinkie Pie says.
"Howdy there little one, a pleasure to finally meet ya little prince," Aunt Applejack says, making me giggle at the way her voice sounded, which made her smile in return.
"Oh my, for one so small, you are one dashingly cute colt little Prince Moon Dust," Aunt Rarity says, making me tilt my head to one side, wondering what dashingly meant.
"Just wait until your old enough kid, you're gonna be all over the place with those wings of yours, uh, Prince Moon Dust," Aunt Rainbow Dash says, looking like she almost said something she wasn't meaning to.
"Hello there little prince, you're the cutest foal I've ever seen," Aunt Fluttershy says quietly making me tilt my head to the other side, wondering why she seemed like she was afraid to talk to me or anypony else.
"Aw, looks like I have to take up foalsitting again for my little nephew here," Aunt Cadence says.
I then felt as if my nose were being tickled and I feel like I have to blow out my nose and mouth at the same time. I hear myself make a sound which was, "Ah-choo."
Something escapes my horn and goes bouncing around the room until it hits my uncle Shining Armor in the head. He makes a funny face and says after shaking his head, "Wow, his magic is strong, like his mom and dad's, hmm."
This makes everypony giggle as I was giggling at my uncle's face he had made. "Well, bless you my son. Don't be hurting your Uncle Shining Armor though," my mom says.
I was feeling content getting all this attention, but soon my eyes were feeling heavy as I laid in my mom's arms. I took a large breath of air and my mom says, "Oh, looks like somepony needs some rest, he's had a big day and the little prince is tired. I think it's about time all his aunts and his uncle left for now, I'm going to put him down for a nap."
"Oo, can we," Aunt Pinkie Pie says loudly waking me up again before mom cuts her off and says quietly, "Shh, my son is trying to sleep dear Pinkie, and yes we can have a party for him tomorrow once we have brought him back to the castle, and have him settled in. For now, let him sleep."
"Okeie dokie loki Princess Luna," Aunt Pinkie says as quietly as she can so she wouldn't startle me and leaves with the rest of my aunts and my uncle.
The way my mom spoke, the soothing humming and the way she was swinging her arms with me in her embrace made my eyes feel heavier, until I could no longer keep them open and I buried my face in her dark coat. I soon was asleep from the combination of her humming and the swaying from side to side, and I did not have a care in the world as I fell asleep.
