//------------------------------// // Grandma's Here // Story: Queen Mommy // by Evowizard25 //------------------------------// I couldn’t believe it. My mother coming here? No, that wasn’t possible. We haven’t talked in centuries. Now she wants to come over? Because I have children? Ugh, the nerve of that mare. I stroke my mane to get it to perfection. I knew that was saying a lot since I was already perfect, but right now I wanted to look my best. I was going to show her what I was made of and stand my ground… “You’re tense,” Hurricane spoke up from behind me. I turned to glare at my husband. Why on this planet was he so calm? Was it because he was a general? Ha! If he knew my mother, he’d be quaking in his boots. She was not a chaos goddess for nothing, “Of course I’m bloody tense. My bloody mother is coming to this bloody planet to see my bloody kids and my bloody husband is taking his bloody time not stressing out like the sexy moron I bloody married!” Hurricane quirked an eyebrow, “That’s a lot of blood right there.” “Oh it’ll get worse when mother arrives,” I huffed and finished with my mane. It was perfect, as usual. I sighed. “This has to be perfect… ish.” I narrowed my eyes. “At least, I hope it has to be. My mother is rather strange. It comes with the territory of being a chaos goddess. Thankfully, I’m more a goddess of change and fertility then chaos so I don’t have that problem. I never change my mind that often to annoy my fellows.” Hurricane rolled his eyes. Hmph, what does he know? What? Can’t a female be wishy washy when she’s pregnant? Or at any other time? Stallions…. “Now then,” I cleared my throat and turned to let him get a good look at my form. “Do I look presentable?” “When are you ever not?” Hurricane quipped. I giggled and gave him a nuzzle, “Perfect answer~ Now, where are the children?” “I left them in Celestia’s care,” Hurricane answered. “I had a few errands to take care of, namely making sure that the army is fit and proper for your mother’s arrival.” “That may have impressed my father, but my mother honestly doesn’t care for fit and proper militaries.” I knew that all too well. She just cared about how much chaos and destruction she could wreak upon mortals. Thankfully I am not like that at all. I pride myself on a strict force that can firmly hold on to a planet with ease. That’s why all the operations and wars were spearheaded by me and me alone, with a little bit of daddy’s help. I still hoped that this would go over smoothly. This was my family after all. _____________________________________________________________ I found my babies in the courtyard, playing at Celestia’s hooves. I noticed with slight mirth that some of the guards had bloody noses or forelegs. My babies can be quite troublesome to these ponies. Good. They need to know they can’t control us. They squealed and rushed over to me. It warmed my heart to see how happy I made them simply by being near. Of course they did. I’m the perfect mother. “I hope they haven’t been giving you too much trouble.” “Perish the thought,” Celestia gave my children a warm smile. “There may have been a few hiccups, but it was far from the worst experience I’ve had from babysitting. I rather enjoyed them.” She looked up into my face and frowned. “You’re worried.” I chuckled, “Always so perceptive, Celestia… Yes, I’m worried.” I turned to look over the courtyard and how oddly still it was. “I don’t know what she’s going to do when she gets here. I know she won’t hurt me or my children, but…” I lowered my head to nuzzle my three children. “I can’t help but feel she might try something that will ruin this world’s peace. I do ever so want my children to conquer, but I’d prefer to keep at least one world intact.” Celestia rolled her eyes, “You have nothing to worry about. I’ve dealt with your mother long enough to know that she can be reasoned with.” Before I could respond, a bright flash appeared in the middle of the courtyard. “Hello everyone!” The most annoying creature of all spoke. Discord had such an annoying smile that I often pondered ways to rip it off. Sometimes it worked for a few minutes, but being a god of chaos himself, he could fix it. He was wearing a large red and white top hat, black suit, and held an orange cane with the star of chaos on the end. “How are you doing on this fine day?” “I was doing well until a living headache inducing moron decided to show up,” I growled. I loved my brother, but I also hated him. It was a complex relationship that really only a sister and brother could have. Discord just nodded, “When you see this ‘moron’, tell him I want a few words with him or her.” He held out his hat and tapped it with his cane. He shook it up a bit, threw in a tomato for some reason, and then turned it upside down. Out from the smaller hat, came the large frame of Luna. She looked a bit woozy and had a bright red tomato stuck to her nose. Said tomato blinked like it held a little fire inside. I couldn’t help but giggle. “Oh dear,” Discord tutted. “I forgot the rest of the outfit. Silly me.” He tapped Luna’s horn and a full clown outfit sprouted around her. White paint coated her once blue coat. Getting herself back in order, Luna looked down at herself. “WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME, VILE CREATURE?!!” Her Canterlot voice nearly blew away the whole courtyard. She really needs to learn how to control her voice. “I made you more representable and attractive,” Discord took off his hat and used it to boop her tomato nose, which then turned blue. “There. Just the faintest bit of blue. You look much better in white, miss Lulamoon.” “DO NOT CALL ME THAT NAME!” Luna charged at him, intent to impale. Good. Maybe some roughing up could get some sense thrown into their heads. The moment she came close to him, the cinder blocks underneath her turned into a huge hand as he shot out and grabbed her. It held her around her chest up in the air. Discord chuckled as he walked up the vertical cinder hand, “So testy.” He turned into smoke the moment she shot a blast of magic at him. He reappeared in a reclining posture right above her. “So odd. Celestia is the calm one, yet rules the boiling sun. You control the calming moon, but have the temper of a raging volcano.” He laughed and spun around her, “Oh how I love it.” “Awww, look at you. Playing with lesser gods.” A silky feminine voice spoke up. Mine and Discord’s ears perked up, “Mother?” We both said at the same time. In our midst, a vapor seemed to rise from the ground. Like water, it flowed around them until it formed into what appeared to be a light grey alicorn with a black mane with white stripes through it. Her mane, like the alicorn sisters, flowed about her. “My children,” she looked upon us with those red and yellow eyes. Honestly, I wish she would change them. They remind me too much of my brothers’. “It is so good to see you.” “MOM!” Discord squealed and threw away his cane and hat. Said items turned into a hopping mailbox that gave everyone it met a raspberry and a large candy cane toad. His choices were just too… stupid to believe. He hugged our mother tightly, “I missed you.” Our mother chuckled and hugged him back, “And I missed you.” She looked over at me. “What? No hug for your mother?” I rolled my eyes and walked over, giving her a quick hug. I had an appearance to keep after all. I couldn’t just go about glomping my mother in front of everyone. Besides, Celestia took care of me more often than she did. “Now,” our mother flowed around us before stopping. She stood over Hurricane, looking at him with a keen eye. I gulped and hoped she wouldn’t do anything to my husband. “You must be the stallion who charmed my daughter.” He gave her a practiced salute, “Commander Hurricane, ruler of the pegasi.” “Eris, goddess of chaos and disorder.” She bowed her head. “You know, I used to rule over creatures with your culture. That is if my daughter has informed me of your culture correctly. Very good times for me, but I was never able to destroy their world completely.” “Well I hope we can bypass the world destroying tidbit during this visit,” Celestia spoke up. Eris narrowed her eyes, “Ah yes, the little upstart sun goddess. I see you’re finally taking an active role in the lives of mortals. I remember a time when you were scarcely more than a lowly babysitter.” “And look how that turned out,” Celestia smirked, causing Eris to bristle slightly. I frowned. They never got along. Not once, but my mother had come to rely on Celestia because she did protect me well. The fury of the moment was broken when Luna finally smashed her way out of Discord’s stone hand. Phooey, I wanted to see her spend her precious night encased in stone. Oh well. There always was tomorrow. “Hello Luna,” Eris smiled as she walked on over. “My, my, my. You’ve certainly grown.” Luna snorted and glared up at her. If she says anything out of line towards her, I’m going to blast that little moon bitch. Celestia is one thing, but her?!! “We do so hope that you can act accordingly this time,” Luna snorted and looked down at her ripped and dust covered dress. She sighed, “We best be off to get ourselves cleaned.” She hurried off. Typical. She probably couldn’t wait to get away from us. “Now where are my grandchildren?” Eris peered around until she looked at my three children who hid behind Celestia. “Ah, there you are. A very good hiding place. You can’t see much past those huge hindquarters of hers.” “Thank you,” Celestia smiled. Eris frowned, annoyed by how Celestia was proud of her big butt. Thankfully I have a slimmer one of my own, but sometimes I make it bigger when me and Hurricane…. Nevermind. I don’t want my mother intruding on those thoughts. Eris’s form flowed around her like smoke. She didn’t really walk or travel that often like a normal creature. My brother gets too much from her. Appearing behind Celestia, Eris smiled down at the three joys of my life. “Hello there. I’m your-” She was stopped midsentence when Adagio chomped down on her nose. Eris giggled, “Oh I remember when you used to do this, Chrysalis.” I blushed slightly, “Not for very long.” Eris used her magic to gently pull Adagio off. Mybaby hung in the air with a defiant pout, before Eris nuzzled her. My baby giggled as she squirmed under the assault. Seeing her sister having fun, Sonata jumped up and down as she tried to reach my mother’s snout. Aria was sticking to Celestic, to which she was picked up by the warm and yellow glow and hoofed over to me. I smiled as I took her in my hooves. Aria smiled and nuzzled my chest, “Don’t worry, Aria. She’s family and she loves you.” I kissed her forehead, “You remember that we love you too and we won’t let anything happen to you. Especially your father, if you remember his promise.” I silently giggled as I remembered how my husband had really taken to this one. “Speaking of father,” Eris spoke up. “I’d like to have a chat with him later. Celestia here interrupted our first one.” “I did no such thing,” Celestia responded. I rolled my eyes. This was going to be a long stay.
