Prologue
After countless battles by generations and pastimes of history, I Starswirl never relied on and believed in the power of friendship. I know thousands of spells and countless tricks I learned during all my life. But to believe in that dark gray stallion who came in my direction looking for help not just on me but also to another ponies I didn’t even meet to take care of three simple monsters who control the other ponies by singing?
I think that was a stupid idea, coming from nopony less than a helpless scholar stallion named Stygian who wanted to create a team of heroes in Equestria named the pillars of harmony, using his prominent idea about trying to held forces with 6 powerful ponies. Explaining with my Sorcery with the other virtues like healing, hope, strength, bravery, and beauty, we could create a powerful force with his strategy to ambush those three monsters who were terrifying his village.
His logic seems it doesn’t have flaws; however, my pride won't let anypony take my decisions from me. So I decided to try on his plan if… just if I cannot deal with these monsters 5 minutes by myself.
His shocked face and hesitation to accept my counter offer demonstrated how poorly this stallion is on negotiations or charisma, making me look down at him for the rest of my life or just until prove to myself he can be better than me. This is what I had determined myself from now on. And If I cannot deal with those 3, I will promise to myself I will not let my pride take over me anymore, and I’m too old to deal with things alone. That’s a promise I cannot forget.
After passing a week, it was time to meet the other pillars as Stygian told me to appear.
I met everypony in the room, and while some were interested in the confrontation, others wanted to make a better way not to have any victims or casualties in the battle. It was that moment I suggested to deal with the monsters by myself the first minutes, and while I sounded arrogant, actually, I was trying to prove to myself I still can do that missions without any help. Even my students knew I could do everything by myself.
While the pillars reacted grimly, I made up my mind, and I was stubborn as a mule too. I learned by my experience with the founders of Equestria as Commander Hurricane and Chancellor Pudding strategies to defeat armies and with my former assistant Clover the Clever and her friends to share her experience dealing with Windigos. I managed to defeat many monsters during my time alive, and I’m not young. When it comes to the time when more time passes, more experience you get, and I’m living proof; I can do that.
I used all the information I received from Stygian and went directly to the village while the pillars were following me. While we interacted some moments, I focused on dealing with the battle with those who captured the village.
It took 2 days walking until we found the village and from the 3 big blurs showing in the distance.
In my mind, I chronometer the time to 5 minutes, and I galloped in the direction of the town. I still remember their arrogant faces. After trying to lure me, their faces became ugly when I showed I was prepared for them. So it started the battle, I have to say they have the guts to use some physical attacks, but usually, monsters like them were always the same. Find a pattern, and they use your best attack.
I decided to freeze one in time while I could deal with 2 alone. One was already down, so I need to make a surprise trap against the others. I knew I could deal with them by myself. I couldn’t expect it if they could create magic immunity after two minutes they were affected by the spell. I could have a deal with the other two. I did a powerful spell making the two monsters fighting themselves.
At the moment I let my guard down, a blue giant tail hit me. Launching me in the direction of a building. My body wasn’t the same for decades, and having pain usually makes you lose your concentration while using spells. I shouldn’t let them attack me; it just made them take time to recover themselves. I finally could see their true forms, it was a giant combination between a fish and a pony, but her body was almost 6 times bigger than mine. Three of them with distinctive colors, one as blue, the other as pink and purple, and yellow and orange.
The same blue monster motioned her voice, singing a sonnet while it brought a lot of ponies in my direction. They were in control of these monsters. I decided to use my spell to freeze them in time, but that took me a lot of magic. I discovered the minutes I had almost ended, and the monsters were ready to come in my direction. I had time to just one more spell. And I know I can use it to save the whole of Equestria and the village. I will send them to another dimension.
I used my horn to sparkle runes around the floor, and I could see the countdown of my minutes in just 11 seconds. I can make the spell in 9. I grinned while I used my concentration to that attack; the banishment would be my victory… But then one of them launched a pony with their tail in my direction. I couldn’t banish a pony with those monsters… They… just read me… Me, the strongest sorcerer of Equestria, Starswirl the bearded, was fooled by 3 monsters who look like teenagers, using an innocent pony to cancel my magic.
I changed the magic to teleport the pony who was launched to me and me.
I Starswirl was too old to deal with Equestria's threat by myself for that time.
I saw the ponies' surprise looks who saw my face with not good news, but their surprise was because I could deal with them without much damage either. I had everything in control. But it seems I need to find a new way to deal with my life now. Maybe retire my life for doing such risks by myself. Maybe have 1 or 3 fools to take care of my legacy.
I saw the monsters away again; who could know that monsters would be my daughters from that day?

This type,of srory ussually doesn’t interest me, but it seems a bit interesting.

Thank you, I was inspired by the first season of 3 more things, even Tatsurou said I could do something interesting like that. XD
I wanted to make a cute and interesting plot of sirens being kids in front of a parental Star Swirl, and I understand if that's not your type of fiction.
Drops by to read, first thing I notice: Status on Hiatus
This is actually a pretty interesting start here so Star Swirl try to do by himself without the pillars which I still remember he was very arrogant and very hard to reason with so he tried to use his banishment spells on the sirens but they outsmarted him so he has to resort to ask the others to help him so I wonder how he ever thought he adopted three daughters and how will this work I guess we'll find out next time keep going with the story this is actually really interesting take on

You will never know when I will publish the next chapter BWAHAHAHAHAHA. Actually many of my stories is on Hiatus because I don't know which one will be published first so I make all of them in hiatus, just to surprise everyone who likes my fictions.

You quote make me wonder of which path I should take from this fiction. I want to create a fiction about slice of life of daily usual days of the little sirens while being wholesome in all the chapters.
While in the other hand I can create chapters about the path Starswirll will take after taking care of the 3 sirens. Still thanks for enjoying it.
10573241
And I think that's adorable way to show a soft side of Star Swirl
10573322
Thank you for enjoying it. I was inspired by a fiction of a friend of mine, he made look so cute in the first season I really wanted to treat the same way and create a good fiction like that. XD
10573241
Well, while that is understandable to0 a degree, it will drive of many many possible readers too
10573327
Thats cool and I think it's a pretty neat idea
I forgot to mention I like your art cover it's so adorable
I’m interested and can’t wait to see Starswirl as the worst father of Equestria
That cover art, of little Sonata with her puppy dog eyes, was enough to draw me in.
Now I'm hooked.
10574101
Thanks for enjoying this fiction, it's an honor to take attention of one great author like you to enjoy this fiction XD
And don't worry, there will be a chapter of thos cover art, XD
10573527
Well nobody is ready to be a father until the day the kids are born, and from that moment the person would change in a way nobody could understand, sometimes even if a person is a jerk woth everyone he can be a great father... That's my thought of some great characters... I based him on Uncle of Jackie Chan, and Vegeta... You can expect many funny momments. XD
10573450
Thanks. I found it at the google while I was really looking for that kind of image. I was trying to find the name of the artist but I couldn't.
10574511
I am flattered you consider me a great author.

Dude I became your fan when you published one chapter per day during almost 2 weeks. Dude that was insane, and still your fictions are amazing.
Oh my god.
That some broken English alright.
It's like a little baby is typing.
Every goddamn single paragraph has some kind of mistake, be it grammatical, morphological, linguistical, stylistical or logical.
Every single one.
I spent fifteen minutes just to get through half the chapter, trying to decipher what you were trying to say.
I don't want to sound offensive, but there is really no hiding it: it's really badly written.
10876166
That's okay dude, everyone has preferences, and for me English is not my first language, and I try to use the tools I have to try to edit the best way as I can. I'm out of editors and the publishing I did for looking for an editor is already forgotten so I just gave up. And while I understand you may not like the grammar and the writing. I understand, but to be honest... There is nothing more I can do to help to improve my English.
It seems like an interesting idea. But at least for me the writing is killing it. I don't expect it to get an update after so long so ill take my leave. Great idea for a story and a good start when I thought about it after the fact. But you really needed an editor for this.
