> Twilight Sparkle - Fluttershy's Daughter? > by Rar1tyfan > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Twilight Sparkle, 1 year old Edited by Asabrasa 9-12-13 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight Sparkle was making her way towards the Everfree forest. She was going to visit her good friend Zecora and ask her for something special. `I sure am happy that Spike is in Canterlot for a few days. It would be kind of hard to explain this whole thing to him.´ She thought to herself. She made it to the outskirts of town then she heard someone call out to her. “Twilight.” Someone said, but it was barely audibly. Twilight looked up into the sky and saw Fluttershy slowly descending from the sky. Fluttershy landed on the ground and said. “Hello Twilight it’s nice to see you again.” “Hi fluttershy it’s good to see you too. How are your animals?” Twilight said with a smile. “Oh, they are fine thanks for asking. Harry the bear got a bit of a tummy ache but nothing too serious. Um, I hope you don't mind me asking but what are you doing out there?” she said with her soft voice.. “Oh poor thing I hope he gets better soon. Anyhow i’m on my way to visit Zecora. I need to ask her for something.” Fluttershy’s face brightened and a big smile spread across her face. “Oh that is wonderful. If you don't mind could you ask her for something for Harry’s stomach.” . “I would go myself but I feel a little intimidated by the forest, it’s just so dark and scary.” Her voice grew quieter as she talked about the forest.” Twilight put her hoof on Fluttershy’s shoulder and said. “Don’t you worry. I’ll ask her for some stomach medicine for Harry.” Fluttershy pulled Twilight into a hug and said. “Thank you Twilight. But promise to be careful, the forest is a dangerous place. Not that I doubt you in anyway. Oh i’m sorry, I will be quit now.” She broke the hug and hung her head low. Even thought Twilight was used to the way Fluttershy acted, she would still feel bad whenever her friend got all moody. She rolled her eyes and smiled. “I’ll be careful, thanks for the heads up though. Meet me back at the library in a an hour or so and I’ll give you the medicine.” Fluttershy looked a little happier, she flared her wings and hovered just above the ground. “Okay then I’ll see you soon. Tell Zecora I said hi.” With that she took off into the sky and flew towards her cottage. Twilight started walking and soon her gaze meet a familiar hut. The pots, ritual mask and, unusual plants were a clear indication that whoever lived here was from a foreign land. And the smoke coming from the window was a clear indication that Zecora was home. Twilight walked up to the door and knocked. “Who is by my door?.” Zecora opened the door. “Oh, such a highlight it is Twilight. Come inside my dear you have nothing to fear.” The way Zecora talked was almost hypnotising and Twilight could listen to her talk for hours just for her own pleasures sake. They walked inside the hut and sat down, Zecora poured each of them a cup of herbal tea. a few minutes of them chatting about random events passed and until twilight finally gathered her nerves and said. “Zecora I came here because I need your help perfecting an age spell.” Zecora raised an eyebrow and a look of worry overcame her. "why an age spell my dear, tell Zecora and it shall all become clear" Twilight tried to think of an excuse. As she was thinking she glanced down into her saddlebag and saw an apple. That’s when it hit her. “Applejack let her cider ferment for too long and now it’s way too strong for anypony to drink. So I need to make it younger so she can sell it once the cider season hits.” Twilight said nervously she prayed that Zecora would bite. Zecora raised an eyebrow and shook her head. `That is odd Applejack is normally a very collected pony, but I guess anypony can make a blunder once a while. I hope she is not coming down with something.´Zecora thought to herself. Twilight gulped `She is not buying it.´ She thought. Zecora rose from the table and walked over to a cupboard, she plucked a vial of blue potion from the cabinet and placed it on the table. “Here you go, but be careful my dear cause if something would go down from here. I might not be back here. You see as I’m a seer I must leave for my herd.” Zecora’s eyes flashed green for a moment. Twilight picked up the vial and stared at the blue liquid inside, she turned around to thank the zebra. “Thank you Zecor-.” But Zecora was nowhere to be seen. “Well that was rude, she could atleast have said bye before she left. Oh well. I got what I came for now I only need to reverse the effect of the potion and then I’ll be able to make myself older. Celestia will be so proud of me.” Twilight placed the potion in her saddlebag and walked out of the hut. A pair of glowing green eyes watched her from the shadows as she left. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Back in the town library Twilight was looking for a book called. “The potion makers guide to reversing the properties of a potion.”: She knew that she had seen it somewhere, she levitated all the books about potions in her magical grasp. “Aha! Here we go. nNw lets see. Chapter 2 age spells. That sounds about right.” She walked down into the basement, she needed some peace and quiet for this. Twilight picked up the potion from her saddlebag and placed it on the floor. She focused her magic on the potion and the spell seemingly went of without a problem. She wiped some sweat from her forehead. “Phew, there we go. Now all I need to do is drink it and then I’ll be older.” She smiled feeling proud of her work. She took the potion and drank it. Surprisingly it tasted pretty good. Suddenly the room began to spin and Twilight started feeling sick. “I don’t feel so good.” Twilight passed out shortly after those words left her mouth. Meanwhile in the town square Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy was on their way to the library. “I hope nothing bad happened to Twilight when she was in the forest.” Fluttershy said to Rainbow, who was flying by her side. Dash flew in front of Fluttershy and said. “Cool your jets, flutters. I sure Twilight is fine, she is a smart girl and she’s really good with magic. Remember when she set herself ablaze and burned those Timberwolves to ash?” Fluttershy shuddered a bit at the memory. “Yes I remember that. But I guess you're right she is probably fine. “Totally! I need to ask her about the new Daring Doo book anyway so I might as well tag along.” Suddenly a bright blue light bathed the entire town and it was coming from the library. Dash was quick to take notice and she flew as fast as she could. “Oh, what did that egghead do this time!” She crashed through the front door and flapped her wings to clear out the blue smoke that currently engulfed the library. Once the smoke cleared they started looking for Twilight. Rainbow Dash flew up the stairs, she looked in the bedroom and the bathroom. “Twilight! Are you in here?” Fluttershy, walked down the stairs into the basement, she laid eye on a book laying on the floor. She picked it up and read the page the book was opened at. “How to reverse an age potion. Oh, my. I don’t like this one bit.” Suddenly she heard something rustling in the corner of the room, she slowly walked up and found a purple unicorn foal. The little foal was shivering. Fluttershy found a blanket and wrapped it around the foal, she then held it close to her chest. The Foal nuzzled into her chest and let out an adorable yawn. Fluttershy did not know what to think or how to react, but this foal was obviously her friend Twilight. `Oh, Twilight.´ Rainbow Dash, flew down the stairs and into the basement. “HEY, FLUTTERSHY DID YOU FIND HER!?” Rainbow’s loud voice scared the foal and caused it to cry. Fluttershy rocked her back and forth coaxing her back to sleep. “Rainbow! You need to be quiet. You are upsetting her.” She whispered. Rainbow flew over and took a quick look at the purple foal cradled in fluttershy hooves. She landed on the floor and whispered. “Oh, great. How did the egghead get herself into this?” “I don’t know, but we should take her to the hospital.” “Good idea I’ll fly ahead and tell them about the situation.” Within seconds, Rainbow was gone. Fluttershy looked down at the sleeping foal and sighed. She walked out of the basement and started making her way to the hospital. Once she arrived she was greeted by nurse Redheart. “Hello, Fluttershy. Rainbow has informed me about the situation, follow me and we'll take a look at what we can do.” “Thank you. I really-” Fluttershy felt something warm trickling down her coat and dripping onto the floor,” She looked back at the purple foal on her back and quickly put two and two together. “Oh,my….” Nurse Redheart looked at Fluttershy who was blushing. “It’s okay, dear. I’ll take her off your hooves and you go take a long warm shower. In the mean time I’ll take Twilight to the children’s ward on the second floor. Don’t worry I’ll make sure she gets everything she needs. “Okay.” Fluttershy managed to very quietly squeak out. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile. Rainbow Dash had gathered up her friends and they were all walking towards Ponyville hospital. “So you are saying that Twilight is now a foal?” Applejack said. “Yeah! I don’t know all the details, but we should hurry to the hospital!” “Oh. Poor Twilight, but I bet she is a very adorable foal and as we all know a cute foal needs a cute outfit.” Rarity said. “This is great! I always wanted to throw a. Congratulations you are a foal again party!” Pinkie said. “Pinkie! This is no laughing matter! What if she is stuck like this forever!?” Dash said. “I did not think about that………… If she is going to have to grow up all over again that means……...that” Pinkie stopped talking and her smile turned itself upside down. “WE NEED TO HURRY!” Pinkie yelled and broke out in a full speed gallop. “HEY, PINKIE WAIT UP!” Dash yelled as she started flying in order to catch up. That left two ponies in the dust. “Well I guess we're running. You down, Rarity?........... Rarity?” Applejack looked around in confusion, but she quickly realized that Rarity had started running a while ago. “Well I Ain't losing this race!” Applejack said as she broke out in gallop. They made it to the hospital, found Nurse Redheart and she told them where to go. They arrived at the children’s ward and opened door 14. Fluttershy was sitting next to a crib and inside it laid their now tiny friend. They all walked up to the crib and looked at the sleeping little unicorn. “She is so cute!” They all whispered in union. “So what are we going to do now?” Applejack said. “I don’t know.” Rainbow Said. “Well we got to-” Rarity stopped herself mid sentence and pointed at the crib. Twilight opened her tiny eyes and let out a squeaky yawn. All the focus was on her as she stirred herself awake, > Twilight Sparkle, 1 year old Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight poked her head out from under the sheets. As she noticed all the ponies around her she got upset as she did not recognise the ponies. Tears started building up in the filly's eyes. Fluttershy saw that Twilight was upset and she went next to the filly who started to take an interest in Fluttershy's Mane. Twilight lifted her hoof as best she could and started playing with Fluttershy's mane. The tears in the filly's eyes disappered quickly and a smile came on her face, Fluttershy started humming Hush Now, Quiet Now. "There you go, no need to cry" Fluttershy said. "Wow Fluttershy i never knew you were good with the young'uns" exclaimed Applejack. "Well they are not much different from small animals" Fluttershy replied while stroking Twilight's mane "oh you are just a cutie aren't you". "How old do you think she is?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Well she looks about the same size as Pumpkin Cake" Said Rarity "And the Cake twins first birthday was yesterday" said Pinkie Pie "oh that dress i made for little Pumpkin Cake ooh i can not wait for next year I have so many ideas". Rarity said while envisioning a new dress. "Calm down Rarity let's find out what is wrong with Twilight first" Applejack said. Nurse Redheart then came through the door and walked to the base of Twilight's bed "could you all please leave while i look at little Twilight". Fluttershy started to walk away from Twilight who became upset and she took a big breath then she started crying. "I think she wants you to stay Fluttershy" Nurse Redheart said after she heard Twilight's cries. Everypony agreed that it would be best if Fluttershy stayed with Twilight. Since the filly had taken a liking to the Yellow Pegasus. "It's ok i'm not going anywhere" Fluttershy said as she sat down on the chair next to Twilight who proceeded to play with Fluttershy's mane again. "Well young filly lets have a listen to your lungs" Nurse Redheart who had put on a stethoscope but Twilight was not going to keep still for the Nurse "Fluttershy could you distract her please?" Nurse Redheart asked. "Twilight look" Fluttershy said as she blew a gentle breeze towards Twilight. The filly was so mesmerised by Fluttershy's wings that she did not notice Nurse Redheart checking her lungs. "well everything seems fine there" Nurse Redheart said as she grabbed a thermometer "now Twilight just let me put this in your mouth". But Twilight would not open her mouth for Nurse Redheart so Fluttershy tickled the little filly and when her mouth opened Nurse Redheart took her chance and stuck the thermometer in Twilight's mouth "A normal 38 degrees centigrade" Nurse Redheart stated "I think that Twilight is a perfectly healthy one year old filly" Princess Celestia walked into the hospital and walked up to the front desk. "Could you please tell me where i might find Twilight Sparkle?" "Of course your majesty" Nurse Sweetheart said and went to the computer. Nurse Sweetheart returned to the front of the desk "She is in the Children's ward on Floor 2" Children's ward oh no Celestia thought to herself "Thank you Nurse Sweetheart" Celestia said then she rushed off up the stairs to the children's ward. She walked through the door into Twilight's room "Princess Celestia! " everypony shouted upseting Twilight who started crying. "Oh its ok come on shh" said Fluttershy who was trying to calm the filly down. "How did this happen?" Princess Celestia asked Rainbow Dash then told Celestia what had happened "oh no a magic tampered potion" Celestia said with a grim look on her face. "Why what is so bad about a magic tampered potion?" Applejack asked. "Their effects can only be countered by Natural means" Celestia replied. "Meaning?" Rainbow Dash asked. "We can not get our Twilight Sparkle back, She has to grow up normally" Celestia said before she burst into tears. "I can't believe it our Twilight's gone" Applejack said through her tears Everypony started crying exept Rainbow Dash who tried not to cry but then she burst out in tears. After about five minutes of crying, Fluttershy said "Who will look after Twilight while she is growing up?" "She seems comfortable with you, Fluttershy maybe you should look after the little darling" Rarity said. "Really" Fluttershy replied. "And ya already look after small animals so i don't think a filly will be that hard for ya" Applejack said to Fluttershy. "We can have a Birthday party for the little one" Pinkie Pie said after pulling her Party Cannon out from under Twilight's bed. "Okay I will look after Twilight as if she was my own Foal" Fluttershy said with a seirous look on her face. "Very well then I shall check in regularly to see how she is doing? OK Fluttershy" Princess Celestia said as she walked out of the door. After Celestia left all of Fluttershy's friends started congratulating her. "Did you hear that Twily you get to be my foal?" Fluttershy exclaimed at her new pride and joy. Twilight's stomach grumbled and she became upset and started crying. "Fluttershy i think Twilight might be hungry" Applejack said. "Nurse Redheart is there anywhere i can get Twily a bottle?" Fluttershy asked the pony in the corner. Then a brilliant yellow light shone in the center of the room Fluttershy covered Twilight's eyes so they did not get hurt. When the light faded in the center where everything a new Mother would need to care for a one year old foal. Diapers, Bottles, A carrying harness for Fluttershy to wear, Clothes which Rarity took a bit of an offense at, food and a note which read dear Fluttershy these should help you with Twilight for now and there is a nursery set up at your cottage for her, all the best, Celestia "So Flutters are you really going through with this" Rainbow Dash asked "Yes I am" Fluttershy replied while giving Twilight her bottle. Twilight saw the bottle and she tried to grab it herself but Fluttershy kept a hold of it and watched her new filly drink from it. "Good Girl, now drink up so you can grow big and strong" Fluttershy said in a motherly tone. "Aww" said everypony except Rainbow Dash. "Come on can we get out of here I need to practise for the Wonderbolts" Rainbow announced quite loudly. "Rainbow could you please calm down? you are upseting Twilight" Fluttershy said hiding her foal underneath her wing. "Oh come on Fluttershy you can not wrap her up in clouds" Rainbow said to Fluttershy who was burping Twilight. "I am not wrapping her up in clouds i just don't want her hearing shouting at an early age" Fluttershy said Twilight yawned quite loudly. "Oh come on baby we need to get you home for your nap" Fluttershy said in her motherly tone. "I will get the stuff for you Fluttershy" Applejack said while Fluttershy was putting Twilight in the Harness "And i would be more than happy to design some lovely clothes for the little foal" Rarity said while rubbing noses with Twilight "Ooh ooh ooh I could throw a big party for Twilight tomorrow at Sugarcube Corner" Pinkie Pie said while jumping up and down "Thank you everypony" Fluttershy said as she lead her friends out of the hospital. "Pinkie what time is the party going to be tomorrow?" Rarity asked the pink pony "I don't know when is good for you and Twilight, Fluttershy" Pinkie asked Fluttershy who was preparing to take off. "Oh sometime in the afternoon please" she said as she started to get her wings flapping "Well i will bake you a great Apple Pie with Sweet Apple Acres Apples for the occasion" Applejack said "why thank you AJ now i am sorry but we really must go" Fluttershy said and she took off with Apple Jack following her. "see y'all tomorrow at the party" Applejack shouted back to her friends.
