The Lost Cousins

by Ponyrellabellasara


A gift from the princess.

Twilight and her friends walked down the hall days later. Everyone was excited to meet the little filly's.

"I can't wait to show Princess Celestia and Luna some samples of the dresses I made." Rarity stated levitating a bin of small dresses.

"They are so lovely, Rarity." Twilight complemented.

"I do try." Rarity said modestly.

"Girls wait up!" Pinkie shouted zipping up towards them.

"Pinkie, where in Equestria have you been?" Applejack asked.

"Sorry girls I had a note to deliver." She said. The others shook it off. Pinkie crazy antics again. "So twilight how cute are the little filly's?" She asked walking backwards to face Twilight.

"Oh they are very cute." Twilight answered.

"But how cute? Are they the 'aw they're as cute as a button.' Kind of cute, Come to think of it button's are cute. Or are they the 'aw they are so cute I could eat them up' kind of cute. I never under stood that phrase why would you want to eat little fillies. If you eat them then you won't get to enjoy their cuteness anymore." Pinkie pie said barely stopping for a breath.

"Why don't you find out for yourself?" Twilight asked. Pinkie wasn't aware that they had walked into the nursery. Princess Celestia and Luna stood over the cradles watching their fillies, both looked tired. Pinkie looked down at the orange and grey fillies.

"Aww look at the little darlings." Fluttershy said smiling.

"I haven't seen a baby as precious as that every since the day Pumpkin Cake and Pound Cake were born." Pinkie thought back. "There Super-cute-arific-sweet-tastastic-presa-doses!" Pinkie said. "Hey that would make a great song." Pinkie opened her mouth to sing, but Rainbow covered her mouth.

"Thank ever so grandly for inviting us. Your highnesses." Rainbow dash bowed.

"Since when did you say grandly?" Applejack asked.

"Just recently." Rainbow said calmly. "After all I need to expand my vocabulary if I want to leave a good impression on the new princesses." Rainbow explained.

"Now why in the hay would you need to impress the new born. You're already in the wonder bolt academe." Applejack asked.

"Well someone needs to teach these youngsters how to fly, and the princesses can't do that." Rainbow dash.

"Rainbow, that was a little rude." Twilight scolded.

"Actually Twilight, she's right." Celestia said with a smile. "Luna and I won't be able to teach our daughters some things, like how to fly, and how to use their magic properly.

"That's why we asked you to come here. We want some of you help teach our daughters." Luna confessed.

"Why we would be honored to help you out." Rarity said. The others smiled with appreciation.

"Twilight, I taught you all I know. I would be delighted if you taught our little girls, what you know." Twilight smiled. "Rainbow dash, I would like you teach them how to fly."

"Oh yeah!" Rainbow said.

"Rarity, Would you like to be their royal dress maker. From here on out." Celestia asked.

"Yes, yes!" Rarity said ecstatically. "Oh thank you. You won't be disappointed. I have a few samples here." Rarity showed Princess Luna and Celestia the dresses. Two guards showed up at the door.

"Your highnesses. A lord Shady is here to seek an audience with you." The white unicorn said as he bowed with the yellow Pegasus Twilight knew as Flash Sentry.

" Thank you let him in." Celestia said. Lord Shady was a dark grey with black appaloosa markings.

"I glad to see you in good health my princesses." He said with a bow. "May I see the angles." He asked. He walked over to the cradles. "They are adorable." He said.

"I'm sorry, that I had reschedule our meeting." Celestia apologized.

"It's no problem." He said

"May we continue our meeting outside?" She asked. Leading the way. Luna stayed and turned to Comet Tails, and Solar Eclipse who had woken up and started to cry.

"Don't worry Princess Luna I got solar eclipse." Twilight said levitating the tiny dark orange alicorn to her. She sat down in one of the rocking chairs as Luna sat in the other one. As they started to rock the little princess fell back to sleep.

"Wow twilight you're a natural." Fluttershy admired.

"It looks like Tia and I made a good choice, having you be there god mother." Luna stated with a smile.

"I can't imagine a any pony else to help you raise them." Applejack said tickling Solar Eclipse chin.

"I can't wait to teach them how to fly." Rainbow Dash said.

"Come on girls we should let the little ones sleep." Rarity suggested. The girls walked of the door. It was a while before Twilight and Luna stepped out of the room. Celestia returned shortly afterward.

"How is My little eclipse?" She asked.

"She's off to dream land." Luna stated with a smile. Celestia smiled and peeked inside. Both fillies were sleeping peacefully. She stepped back out and turned to Twilight and her friends. They walked into the library across from the nursery.

"I want to thank all of you for helping Luna and I." Celestia stated. "I would like to repay all of your work. With these Celesta opened up a envelope, and handed out six tickets. "I intended to give you these sooner."

"These are tickets to the Canterlot carnival tonight." Rarity said.

"I thought you could use some fun." Celestia said. "After all you have been taking on royal duties as Luna and I recovered."

"Awesome. The wonder bolts are Performing an air show tonight." Rainbow Dash said leaping into the air.

"There's a rope trick contest. I'm a shooting to win that." AJ said.

"Girls we should get ready, it starts in a few hours." Pinkie pie said bouncing up and down.

"Go on and Enjoy yourselves." Luna said smiling. Later They made their way down to the carnival.

"I hear the have a lot of fun rides." Pinkie said happily. "I can't wait to go on one of those spinning rides that make you so dizzy, that you won't walk strait for weeks." She said as she spun around.

"Hey Pinkie pie I bet I can get more dizzy than you." Rainbow challenged her. Pinkie Pie and Rainbow rush off to the ride. Fluttershy stayed with Twilight.

"Twilight are you alright?" She asked.

"I'm Just worried about the Princesses." She admitted.

"Don't be, twilight I'm sure they'll be fine." Fluttershy said gently hovering.

"I hope your right." Twilight said under her breath. Unaware of a threat lurking in the carnival.
