//------------------------------// // Candy Burn, I am your mother! // Story: The Living Candy Corn // by Dark Nightshade //------------------------------// A while later, after Twilight had put the saliva into a DNA reading thing, the girls were talking. "So, what if my parents are dead? Or what if they don't want me?" Candy burn asked worriedly. "I honestly don't know how to answer that," Twilight said. "In either case, I might be able to adopt you," Fluttershy suggested. "Really? You'd do that for me? You don't even know me!" Candy Burn said. "I know, but I do it with animals all the time!" Fluttershy said. "Really? Your comparing me to animals?" Candy Burn asked. Fluttershy blushed. "I didn't mean it like that!" Fluttershy started to say when the DNA thing made a little ding, and Twilight said "It's done! Time to see who your parents are!" They gathered around it. "Hey, back up! This needs to be dramatic!" Twilight said. Candy Burn and Fluttershy backed away. After a few seconds, Twilight gasped and looked at Fluttershy, looked back at the machine, and back at Fluttershy. "What? What's wrong?" Candy Burn asked. "Well, this is going to come as a shock to both of you, but Fluttershy's your mom!" Twilight exclaimed. Both of them gasped. "What? But how? I'm still a virgin!" Fluttershy said, then started to blush as she realized what she said. "And it would appear that I'm also you mom," Twilight said, starting to blush. "What?!?! How? You both have the same organs, right?" Candy Burn yelled, starting to freak out. "Yes. Although I must tell you, there is about 10% of my DNA in you. 80% is Fluttershy," Twilight said. "How does that make sense?" Candy Burn yelled. "Well, there was this spell I had casted about a minute before you showed up," Twilight said. "No, not that! I meant that the math doesn't add up! What about the other 10%?" Candy Burn asked. "Um, did I really say 10% and 80%? What I meant to say was 15% and 85%," Twilight said nervously. "Ok, still doesn't make sense. You both have to same organs, right?" Candy Burn asked. "Yes. Ok, there was a spell that I casted a bit before you showed up, and it may have helped create you," Twilight said nervously. Candy Burn frowned. "Magic? Magic can help create life?" she asked, clearly confused. "Apparently. I must ask Celestia about this. The spells were in her library," Twilight said. "Obviously, I must look into this. In the meantime, Candy Burn, you can stay at Fluttershy's. It could get a bit chaotic here, and don't tell anyone about us being your parents, ok? Say something like you're the daughter of a family that Fluttershy knows, and you may need to stay here for a while, ok?" Twilight asked. "Um, ok. A little bit confusing, but ok," Candy Burn said.
