	The filly felt movement and soon warmth had been removed from her body. She didn't like it and began to try to cry but something made itself known to her mouth and she began to chew and suckle on it. It was enough to send her back to the black.

It was not long before the pain in her abdomen began again, and the filly began to wail to alert all surrounding ponies. She opened her eyes to see the white one making more noises, and the white one came back to the filly. She gave the filly some of the flowing colors, and the filly began to happily chew on it. It was not nasty, but it was something to do.

The filly noticed that the white one began to make bad faces again, and she hoped that she had done nothing bad. The white one had also levitated other things and began doing motions, and in a puff of green smoke the object was gone. The filly briefly wondered if it tasted good, which reminded her of the pain that continued to grow, and the filly needed the white one to understand. The filly rid herself of the colors, and kicked and wailed, trying to get the white one to do something.

The bad face only became worse, till in a golden flash she was gone. The filly cried even louder, the white one wasn't supposed to leave! She was supposed to do something else, though the filly couldn't figure out what. The dark one often made a sound every time the white one was around, so the filly tried to mimic it.

"Cwest Cwest...prrbgg" The filly bubbled. Nothing happened and the white one did not appear so she chanted the sound constantly, hoping the white one would understand. Finally she appeared again with another bottle filled with formula. "Cwest Cwest..prrbgg," the filly repeated, hoping the white one understood.

She made a face. It was a good face, and soon the bottle was at her lips, and the filly began to greedily drink it, enjoying the pleasure of the pain going away. The white one came up to her and supported her. The filly liked this position. She looked up at the white one, hoping she understood that too.

The white one was smiling pleasantly at her, and she continued to guzzle. The filly knew the white one was special. Caregiver. Yes the white one was a Caregiver. A blinding light dazed the filly for a little bit, for her to see a another blue flash and a bad face on the Caregiver.

A different unfamiliar face passed across the caregiver's face, but the filly wasn't sure what to make of it. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. She was done with the bottle and continued to just stare at the Caregiver. A familiar golden flash happened, and the filly, now on the caregiver's back, was in a different room. The dark one was in here as well. What was she? The white one was the Caregiver.

A Toy. Yes, that's what the dark one was. A toy. The Caregiver seemed to share that idea. The filly listened to their noises. The caregiver always used a sound around the Toy. Was that what the Toy was called? The Toy made many strange faces, and the filly giggled at the array of funny faces the Toy gave.

A dark voice came from the Caregiver, and the filly didn't like it, but the caregiver had a good face and the Toy made a funny face, so she just continued to giggle.

The Caregiver set her down on the ground and the Toy looked at her. In a golden flash the Caregiver was gone. That was wrong! The Caregiver can't leave. No, Caregiver cannot leave! The filly began to wail for the Caregiver to come back. "Cwest! Cwest! Prrrbgg" The Caregiver did not return, and the Toy had a bad face.

The wailing made another pain arise, and the filly wailed louder trying, to get the Toy to understand. The Toy didn't understand like the Caregiver did. The Toy made some noises and got up on her hind legs and made funny movements. No, Toy cannot play, Toy must understand! The filly cried even louder.

The Toy made some more sounds. The same sounds. "Twilight." was the sound that kept coming from the Toy. Was that what she was called? Like how the white one was a Caregiver and the dark one was a Toy. So the filly was a twilight? She could not mimic the sound.

The Toy began to play with her face and make funny sounds with her tongue. Twilight wanted to try it, so she began to play with her face and tongue as well. The pain slightly subsided, but then increased, causing her to wail again. Could the Toy not understand that she was in pain?

Maybe if she tried to make the sound that the Caregiver made to the Toy, then the Toy would understand. "Woo Woona!" Twilight cried. The Toy had a look of surprise, and then a good face appeared. Did the Toy understand now? She made sounds at Twilight, but did nothing to stop the pain. This time, Twilight wailed louder and louder. The Toy didn't understand, and the filly wanted the Caregiver back!

She felt a warm glow envelop her. It was not like the Caregiver's, but the Toy tried to mimic the white one. It did not help the pain. Instead, the pain worsened, so the filly wailed.

The Toy made a loud, bad sound and began to hit her head on the wall. Twilight giggled, but the Toy was not getting it. Finally the Toy came up to her, and touched Twilight's back, patting her. A loud burp was heard and the pain was gone. The Toy was not as good as the Caregiver, but she would have to do.

Twilight felt a different feeling, but she recognized it and all she had to do was release. A bad smell reached her nose, and the toy smelled it too. She had the same triangles the Caregiver had, but it seemed she was going to take this one off. No! Caregiver gave it to her, so the Toy can not remove it!

Noticing the appendages on her back, Twilight tried to move them, which created a buzzing, and lightly lifted her off the ground. She could move! If the Toy wanted her treasure, the Toy would have to take it! Giggling, she took off toward the hallway, but the Toy was in front of her in a blue flash.

A glow enveloped Twilight's horn, and trying to mimic the Toy and the Caregiver, she teleported behind the Toy. A look of utter horror and surprise crossed the Toy's face, and Twilight giggled and zoomed away from her. Twilight zipped into the hallway and was giggling as the Toy was chasing her.

Fun! The Toy was fun! She heard the Toy yell her name, but she was having too much fun, and now that she could move, she needed to find the Caregiver. A word hinged at the tip of her tongue. When the Toy said her name again she tested the word on her lips. "No."

The Toy gave a surprised jerk in the air, but quickly righted herself. More words and orders came from the Toy's mouth. "No no no no no no!" Twilight repeated, zipping through hallways. More toys with shiny covering them tried to catch her, too. She didn't want to play anymore. She wanted the Caregiver.

"No no no no no!" She tried the purple flash again, and every time a shiny toy caught her, she would be out of their grasps yet again. "NO!" she screamed. What was the sound that the Toy used for the Caregiver? It was not as long as one the shiny toys used. "Tia! TIA! TIA!" The Toy gave another jerk, but a face crossed her features. It was funny. Twilight mimicked it, and zipped out of reach by going underneath a table, causing the Toy to hit it.

Twilight giggled, "NO!" The Toy made a funny noise and resumed the pursuit. Twilight saw large bottles on the sides and zipped in between them, eventually causing the Toy to hit one. Twilight stopped zipping. Was the Toy okay? The Toy had slid down to the ground and was rubbing her head. A large crack in the bottle shown where the Toy had hit.

Twilight giggled and resumed her zipping to find the Caregiver. Was this a new game? Yes, she had to find the Caregiver and the Toy cannot catch her. She tried the purple flash again and was in a different room. There was something else in the room, too. It was big, and did not have a pretty voice like the Caregiver and the Toy.

He was something, and Twilight did not know what to call it. She had to get around it though. The Caregiver was behind him. The Caregiver had a look of surprise, and as she tried to zip to her, the Toy had flashed herself behind her, and Twilight teleported back into the hallway, landing on an unfortunate shiny.

A squish could be heard, and brown now covered the shiny. Giggling, Twilight quickly zipped away from him, for the Toy had found her again.

"NO! TIA!" Twilight shouted. The filly was getting tired of this game. She attempted to teleport closer to the caregiver, but as she concentrated, the Toy had her in her arms with a triumphant face.

NO! She must be with the Caregiver! She teleported the both of them between the Caregiver and the rough thing. Yes, he was a thingie! The Toy attempted to hold her, and the Caregiver had a funny face on. A golden flash enveloped them both, and then they were atop the shiny with brown on him.

Did Caregiver not want her? And now her treasure was no longer comfy, and she began to cry. The Toy finally picked her up, and after the shiny who helpfully gave the Toy some wet things and a triangle, she attempted to take her treasure. Twilight kicked and screamed, but eventually the Toy had her way, and Twilight felt better now. Maybe the Toy was okay.

"Woona! Woona!" Twilight bubbled. The Toy seemed to understand that she was forgiven, and a nice face crossed her features. Twilight also gestured that she wanted to be picked up, and so the Toy lifted her, and set the filly on her back. The Toy was not as tall as the caregiver, and so Twilight was not as high but she enjoyed it.

She made bubbles and chanted the Toy's name. They walked through the hallway's together, and the Toy finally came back into the room the Caregiver had left her in. The Toy made more faces at her and Twilight attempted to mimic her, the both of them giggling.

A voice came from the other side of the room, and it was a voice that Twilight loved to hear so much.

"T-Tia! Tia!" Twilight giggled. She was still in the Toy's arms, so she teleported out of them, and buzzed her wings the rest of the way in order to reach the Caregiver. She like the face the Caregiver made as Twilight made sounds and moved towards her.

The Caregiver lowered her head towards Twilight and gave a little hug. Another flash passed, but Twilight didn't care. She was back with the Caregiver.

Twilight had to make sure that the Caregiver understood that she can't ever leave her.
