Celestia used her magic to fill the tub with warm water, first giving Drake's. Some steam emitted off of the tub.
"Wow. The bath looks so pretty.." Drake said amazed.
"That's why it's usually only for me and your mommy. But.. Since you are Luna's boy. This is your bathroom now."
"Yay! Thanks auntie Tia!" He said with a cheer..
Celestia rubbed his back as she started her own water.
"U-UM... Auntie Tia. If it's ok. Could you.. Look away for a second?"
Celestia smiled. "Ok sweetie.. Just tell me when you're ready."
Celestia turned her back to him as she thought to herself. 'M-Maybe I should tell him. About my dear sister's past. I kniw it'll be hard.. BUT.. He'll understand,
She heard a splish after him.
"Ok I'm ready!" He said as she turned her head, seeing him in Luna's bath stone for now.
"Ok sweetie.. Time for me." She hopping in the stone tub of her own, seeing the steam vent out.
"A-Auntie Tia?"
Celestia looked at him. "Yes Drake?"
"Y-You look sad. Are you ok??"
Yes. She was not ok. But.. she didn't want to worry him.
"Yes sweetie.. I'm fine."
She took a long deep inhale, then a long deep exhale.
"Drake? Have you ever heard of the tale, 'The Mare On the Moon?'"
Drake shook his head.
"Well. It started a thousand years ago.. When it all seemed so simple.. Your mommy raised the moon.. I raised the sun, we had our own responsibilities. Luna, however felt she was the most hated of the family.. I loved her more then my life.. But. She got power hungry, feeling like she'll do anything for love, and attention....." Celestia's past became more clearer, a tear falling.
"Auntie Tia! Y-You don't have to go on.."
Celestia slowly wiped her tear on her hoove,
"Anyway.. She was so full of hatred and jealously inside that.. SHE turned into Nightmare moon. She almost.. Put me to sleep forever, and.. I had no choice.. but.."
Celestia was in literal tears right now, it was flowing from her beautiful white mane.
Drake's heart broke in seconds..
"Hic.. Auntie Tia."
He got out of Luna's bath stone Mage and gotten into Celestia's to comfort her.
She reacted quickly and gave him a big hug..
"Waaaaaa! I'm so sorry Luna! I'm so-so sorryyyyyyyy waaaaaaaaaa!!" Celestia cried out as ponies gathered outside the bathroom, with sadness and closed eyes.
"Auntie Tia! I'm sorry.." Drake said hugging onto Celestia.
"Sniff.. Sniff.. No.. It's not your fault Drake baby.. It's something you need to know."
She put him under his belly, as Celestia's bright colorful mane floated in the water near Drake.
"Anyway.. I had to banish her to the moon for 1000 years.. to keep my Citizens safe."
Drake NEVER thought that this would happen.. not ever.
"And.. It was my fault I never gave her the attention.. I never gave her the love she needed.. She couldn't control it.."
"Auntie Tia.. all in the past is none.. It's over now.. you have Mommy and me to look forward to." Drake was right.. Luna was back and safe and Celestia had Drake.. She had family..
"Thank you Drake.." She said rubbing his shoulder..
She grabbed a bottle of Lilly Shampoo and started to rub Drake's hair with a few dabs on her right hoof.
"Drake. Are you excited for School next week?"
"I am! I'm so excited to meet new ponies and friends. I may get bullied for a bit but, I know I'm loved by you guys.." He said zuzzling his head one Celestia's leg.
"Well that's good sweetie.. You are always loved. Never forget that!" She said smiling again.
She then rubbed her hooves on his body, melting away any muck and dirt.
"Auntie Tia? What did you first react to when Luna first brought me here?"
Auntie Tia didn't want to hurt his feelings but, she had to be honest.
"Well; I was skeptic at first, fearing Luna could not do such. But this time.. I was wrong.. She raised you to be a kind, sweet loving young stallion."
Drake was glad to hear that at least he was hated at first.
"Now my turn.." Celestia said as she put down the bottle and started to scrub herself with a special kind of wash..
"Mmmm! That feels good." She said dipping her mane in the water
Drake smiled back at her and shivered a bit.
“Ok Drake, you ready to dry off?”
Celestia asked him rubbing his hair.
Drake nodded slowly, agreeing with her.
“Yes Auntie Tia, I’m ready.”
She then levitated Drake out of the bath, using her magic to wrap a small blue towel.
“Mmmm! That feels warm!”
Drake said with a smile.
Celestia brightened up as he said that.
“They are always warmed up before usage, so yes they are warm.”
Drake noticed a new patch of clothes on the sink counter. It was a dark grey pair of jeans that would go down to his ankles, a black
hoodie with a waning Crescent Moon on the front. a Pair of rich white wool socks to go with red sneakers with nice white stripes.
“Is this for me Auntie Tia?”
He asked looking over the clothing.
“Yes sweetheart, they are yours.”
Drake jumped for glee as he went into the room next to him, designed to put on clothes.
“Auntie Tia, they are perfect.”
Drake said, slipping on the warm, and soft clothing.
“I bet it is dear, I bet it is.”
She replied, drying her own mane out as she waited for Drake.
