What if Harry's relatives WEREN'T the Dursleys? What if they were from another world, entirely?
We all know Celestia's, Sunset Shimmer's, And Harry Potter's stories but what if they were all interconnected: as though they were actually..........................family? This will be a Harry PotterXHermione GrangerXSweetie-BelleXApple BloomXScootaloo, and yes they will be a herd. Dumbledore, and Weasley(sans Ginny, twins, Bill, and Charlie) bashing.
Princess Celestia, current ruler of Equestria, bringer of day and-now recently-night, was howling in pain as she was rushed to the Royal Infirmary. You might be asking yourself "Why is Princess Celestia screaming in pain, like that?" Well if you were to ask those who knew her, personally, then the answer would be simple: she's having quadruplets.
[Random pony in the Audience]Wait, if she's having quadruplets, then who's the father?
[Me]Many have asked that very same question, and so far the Princess has been tight lipped on who sired the foals.
Many hours have gone by, and soon, the screaming stopped, followed by four sets of foal-crying. In the delivery room, the Princess gazed lovingly at her newborn children: two were Unicorns, one was a Pegasus, and one was an Earth Pony. In this story, we'll be focusing on the Unicorn fillies. Both had light-orange coats, however one had a solid red mane and tail, and green eyes. The other had a red and gold mane and tail, and turquoise eyes. Raven Inkwell, Celestia's advisor, trotted into the room to check on everything.
"Beautiful, aren't they Raven?" Celestia asks her. "Yes your Highness they are." Raven answered warmly. "What are you going to name them?" "Well, I was thinking Fire Lily for the redhead, and Sunset Shimmer, for the fire-head." said Celestia after thinking about it for a while. "It's a shame their fathers couldn't be here to share in your joy." said Raven with a sad sigh. "I know." said Celestia with a sigh. When I get a hold of the one who took my love from me, well, let's just say it will not be pleasant.
Meanwhile on a city-covered planet, a certain manipulative, black-robe wearing, old man sneezed. Damn allergies!
Before anything else is said by either pony, a guard rushes in with a harried expression. "Your Highness, your, erm, guests from beyond Equestria have arrived." he reports with a solemnness in his voice. "Oh! I-I see. Have them brought to the throne room. I'll bring [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] as soon as I can." said Celestia with a sad sigh. I was hoping to spend more time with them Celestia thought to herself, yet before she could move a muscle little Sunset reached out to her mother and siblings, as though she wanted to bestow a "gift" to say the least to her brother and sisters.
Celestia wondered what the gift might be so she allowed it. "Very well, Sunset. You may bestow your gift to your siblings." And so Sunset touched her glowing horn to each of her siblings' foreheads, which then proceeded to pulse with a bright white light. Celestia used a scanning spell to determine what the spell Sunset had cast was. Once the scan was cast, Celestia's eyes widened in realization: It was a combination of a tracker and shield spell! A powerful, body and mind shield spell at that. Sunset must REALLY love her siblings so much to have placed such a spell like that on them. Not only that, it seems that this spell can be passed down to the next generation.
Once the spell was cast on Sunset's siblings, Celestia took [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] to the throne room where her guests were waiting. It killed her to do this, but she had no choice: [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] had to be split up. Please be safe my children. the Sun Princess silently prayed with every fiber of her being. She then turned her focus to her remaining children, Sunset and Fire Lily. Again, she had an impossible choice to make. Damn those nobles and their laws! she thought angrily. Why should she be forced to have only one heir? No seriously why? It just sounds dumb. The only question was: who was going to be that heir? Just like last time, Sunset had the answer.
So that brings us to a house in a town in a world where the population is separated in two groups: magicals and non-magicals. What makes this house important is the name of the family that lives here, the Evans family. A hooded figure approached the front door with a bundle in it's arms. If you were to look under the hood, you'd find a tear-stained alabaster face desperately wishing she could keep the bundle she held close. I pray you're right about this Sunset. And so Celestia, current Princess of Equestria, placed the sleeping bundle on the doorstep of destiny. Just before leaving she gave one final farewell to another of her children, unaware that it will be the last time she'll ever lay eyes on her daughter again. "Farewell my daughter. Just know that your true family loves you with all our hearts."
Today was NOT going as Harry thought it would. It started out with the usual, waking up in that forsaken cupboard, fixing breakfast for his, ummmmmm, relatives, but try to make extra for himself and Ouch City. Next was school where the borders of Ouch City were expanded. And it wasn't even his fault: his cousin(and I use that term loosely) warned everyone there that Harry was not to be trusted. he even went so far as to warn Harry not to get higher grades, or he'd regret it later. To make matters worse, the teachers couldn't do anything to help. Reason why? they were too scared of Dudley to intervene on Harry's behalf. After school would come Dudley's favorite game: Harry Hunting. It's a game that Dudley invented so that he'd have an excuse to use Harry as his punching bag. There were times where Harry, if he was quick enough, could get away. This time....................................................................................he wasn't so lucky.
There, in the alleyway, he laid, receiving punch after punch, kick after kick. There wasn't an area on his body that wasn't in pain. It hurt so bad he lost consciousness a few times. At the same time, at C.H.S., a shiver went down the spine of a certain fiery haired girl, named Sunset Shimmer. Even though she was hanging out with her friends, she was miserable. Why she felt this was still a mystery, yet she's been miserable for a while now. While she was sitting near the Wondercolt statue her body started shivering all at once. That was weird. Why would-wait this feels................familiar. Her eyes widen in realization as one word escapes her mouth: "Harry." Rarity, upon hearing this, turned to Sunset concerned for her friend. "Sunset, is something wrong, darling?" Rarity asked her fiery friend. "I gotta go! Someone out there needs me!" was the last thing she said before running through the portal at the statue's base, but one thing stuck out in Rarity's mind: Who on Earth is Harry? Pinkie Pie simply turned to face the viewers and winked. Little did anyone notice that Sunset wasn't the only one to feel a shiver down their backs, namely one purple-skinned, scary-smart, glasses-wearing girl. Please be alright. Meanwhile, back in the Potterverse, Harry was getting beaten to near death, in fact to Harry, death seemed preferable right now to this measly existence. At least I'll get to see Mum and Dad. He heard one last thing before darkness claimed him.
She was NOT about to lose him. She swore to herself that she would not lose him. These were the thoughts going through Sunset's mind as she flew from the Equestrian side of the portal, then doing an about-face, racing back to it, frantically trying to access the terminal (For those of you who are unaware, the crystal mirror already had a built-in terminal to allow the user to access other worlds, besides C.H.S.). Finally, she found the right address, and luckily for her, the nearest portal location was in an alleyway in Little Whinging. As fast as she could, Sunset bolted for the portal, with only one thought going through her mind: save Harry. What she saw when she was launched out of the exit portal was a scene she was most familiar with, since it happened to her: Harry, bruised, broken, bleeding, and very near death.
It was the knife in the junior whale's hand that had her call out: "HARRY NO!"
Luckily for both Sunset and Harry, that shout stopped Dudley and caused him and his gang to flee the scene, unintentionally rushing past a certain bushy-haired girl carrying a backpack. Said bushy-haired girl was called Hermione Granger. What most people don't know is that she's an orphan, her father died working with S.A.S., her mother later of heartbreak, but instead of being sent to the orphanage, she lived on the streets, spending most of her time in the library, which is where she first met Harry, now her boyfriend. When she heard that scream she made her way to the alleyway where she came upon a rather gruesome sight, her Harry beaten to unconsciousness and in the arms of a fiery haired woman who was begging him to "stay with me, Harry please," over and over again.
"Excuse me, but who are you, and what happened to Harry?" she timidly asked. "Not a lot of time. I need to get him to a hospital. Is there one nearby?" the woman asked frantically. "Not that I know of." the woman's face, at hearing this fell. Suddenly she had an idea, a crazy idea, she had a wonderful crazy idea. "What's your name?" she asked the girl. "I'm Hermione Potter nee Granger." the girl answered before her hand flew up to her mouth. Why did I say Potter? My last name is......is........ "Sunset Shimmer, you trust me?" She introduced herself as Hermione Potter, but she can't be Harry's sister, he's an only child. Wait a minute..................are they...........no time. Gotta get Harry some help. With a shaky nod from Hermione, Sunset picked up the young boy and began power walking to where she knew the portal was, with Hermione right behind her.
KA-BOOOOOOOOOOM! Was the sound heard and felt around Equestria, even going so far as the Changeling Hive in the Badlands. Remind me to lodge a complaint to Sunbutt later. were the thoughts running through the head of a certain disgruntled Changeling Queen, who was thrown out of bed. The ones responsible for the explosion stared dumbfounded into the crater left in its wake. Three school-age fillies, who were so desperate to earn their cutie-marks that they turned to astrophysics. (Seriously, who teaches astrophysics to young children..........................TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!) Anywho, back with the trio, they were a yellow red-maned Earth-Pony, an orange magenta-maned Pegasus, and a marshmallow-white, light purple and pink maned Unicorn.
"Well, that was a bust." deadpanned the orange Pegasus filly. "Remahnd me again whose braht ahdea wuz it tah git ahr cutie-mahrks in astrophysics?" complained the yellow Earth-Pony filly. Both turned to glare at the third member of their little group. "Oh, come on, you can't tell me neither of you wanted to go out 'n' 'explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to-'" the marshmallow-white, light purple and light pink maned Unicorn filly started to say before an orange hoof made its way to her mouth, cutting her off. "Alright, that's it. No more Pony Trek for Sweetie Belle, all in favour?" the orange Pegasus declared. Both her and the yellow Earth-Pony filly raised their hooves. "Sahrry Sweetie-Baylle, yur outvoted." the Unicorn filly named Sweetie Belle grumbled about the unfairness of it all. "I almost had it. At least it's not Changelings for the millionth time, Scootaloo!"
"What? It's not MY fault that Changelings is so AWESOME!" (No Changelings were harmed, injured, or maimed during the filming of the movie) Scootaloo defended herself. "Uh-huh" "Yeah, right" were the unconvinced responses she got from her two friends. "Anyway, how's the crop coming? Anypony worth mentioning?" Sweetie Belle asked while the trio were making their way to Sugar Cube Corner. "Wayell, thayr's Button Mash, but he's too focussed on his games tah notice us fillies." said the yellow Earth Pony. "What about Rumble? He's pretty cute." Sweetie Belle suggested. "He's at a summer camp for chefs." Scootaloo shot down. "What about Tender Taps? Wait, don't tell me-" "Dancing lessons" was the reply she got from both fillies. "Just as well. Lately I've been feeling some sort of pull, as if something is pulling me toward somepony." The gasps Scootaloo received wasn't the response she expected. "Yew, too?!"
"Now that you mention it, I've been having these weird dreams lately. They were about these strange creatures, a combination of monkey and minotaur. And from what I could tell, they were male. There were five of them, led by a baby whale? And they were attacking another. The one they were attacking was small, scrawny, had a black mane, green eyes, and a lightning-shaped scar on the right side of his forehead. And the odd thing is, I seem to be drawn to the one with the lightning-shaped scar, like I'm meant to be with him." Sweetie Belle described to her friends. "OK, wunce is occurrence, twahce is coincidance, but three tahmes? Ah thank summin' trahyin' tuh tayell us sumthin'." "Hold on, Apple Bloom. Are you suggesting that we're destined for some kind of monkey/minotaur hybrid?" Scootaloo accused. "I mean ya gotta admit, it does sound really dumb. C'mon back me up Sweetie Belle......................Sweetie Belle?" Sweetie Belle wasn't listening, instead she suddenly stopped trotting altogether, and turned to face Twilight's Castle with a look of worry. She then turned to Scootaloo, "Scoots, get your scooter/wagon combo, our stallion's on his way here, and he's in really BAD shape. HURRY!"
Scootaloo didn't have to be told twice. She raced home as fast as she could to get her scooter with wagon attachments, and brought it to her friends. After Sweetie and AB climbed in, Scootaloo raced towards Twilight's Castle in order to save their future stallion. After a few minutes, they made it to the Mirror Portal just in time as Sunset Shimmer, a light-brown Unicorn filly with a brunette mane and chocolate brown eyes, and an unconscious, alabaster colt with a midnight-black mane and emerald-green eyes tumbled out. The C.M.C., quickly and gently placed the colt in the wagon, then proceeded to race down to Ponyville General, with Sunset and the unknown filly right behind them. It took all of a minute at the speed Scootaloo was going to reach Ponyville General, where Sweetie Belle screamed at the top of her little lungs "IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE?!" A nurse took one look at the unconscious colt and rushed him to the Emergency Room.
Once Harry was safely in the E.R. Sunset turned to Hermione, as both followed the C.M.C., with a look of neutrality. "Now Hermione, was it? I need you to tell me what's been going on, why was Harry getting attacked, where has he been staying for the past nine years, and why your last name is Potter.................."
Harry awoke to find himself at some sort of train station, only it was whiter, and cleaner. "Hello?" he called out, only to find that he was the only one there. Not only that but he was naked too! Oh, I wish I had some clothes on, preferably clothes that fit me. Lo and behold, Harry was fully dressed in a grey sweatshirt with dark-blue pants. Harry then heard something cry out "help me. help me." He turned to find a table, and under said table was a small bundle wrapped in black. Harry went over to help when he heard a voice say "Back away from there, Harry!" Harry turned to see who gave the warning, wondering how the voice knew his name. What he saw defied all logical(to his mind actually) explanations, a tall horse the likes of which he'd never seen before: she had light-orange fur, a deep red mane, a spiralling horn on her forehead, and emerald-green eyes. Her eyes are the same color as mine! Is she..................?! "A-a-are you my mum?" Harry asked, trepidation in his voice. The answer he got back was all the more heart-wrenching.
"I'm sorry Harry, but................................I'm not your mother, although I DO love you as though you were my son." Millions of emotions warred within the young boy. "W-who are you?" he asked the tall Unicorn mare, both excited for, and fearing the answer. "My human name was Lily Potter nee' Evans, my true name is Fire Lily, and I'm your aunt. I was adopted by the Evanses a few days after I was born. My adopted parents instantly took a liking to me. I suppose that's why Petunia was jealous of me. Of course it wouldn't be until I started Hogwarts that I met my real sister." "Hogwarts?" Harry asked confusedly. "Hogwarts is a school, dear nephew. More specifically a School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.'' "L-like magic? But I was always told 'there's no such thing as magic' all my life!" Harry vehemently denied. "Whoever told you that lied to you. Magic is real, how do you explain the fact that I, your aunt, am a mythical creature found only in fairy tales?"
Harry couldn't believe his ears; Magic is real? There's a school dedicated to learning it? "Uncle" Vernon and "Aunt" Petunia lied to him? Unknown to him this last bit was said out loud. "Wait, did you say 'Aunt Petunia'? As in magic-hating, normality-obsessed Petunia?! You weren't supposed to go to her, you were supposed to go to your mother in the event of my, and Uncle James death! It was made clear in our wills! It doesn't matter, you're home, you're never going back to that place ever again, no matter what anypon......anyONE says." Lily said as she wraps her hooves around her nephew in a gentle hug. DAMN YOU DUMBLEDOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRREEEEEE "Now do you have any more questions for me?" "What was that thing you warned me away from?" he asked with a curious glance towards the bundle under the table. "THAT is what's called a 'soul fragment', or Horcrux, only this one belongs to a megalomaniac named Tom Marvolo Riddle. Apparently, he made four, five counting you. It must have gotten lodged in your head the night he came after us, wanting to kill you."
"Why did he want to kill me? I didn't do anything to him." "There was a prophecy made before you were born. The one with the Power to Vanquish the Dark Lord approaches......Born to those who thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies..........And the Dark Lord shall mark him as his Equal, but he shall have Power the Dark Lord Knows Not.........And either must die at the hand of the other, for neither can live while the other survives.............the one with the Power to Vanquish the Dark Lord shall be born as the seventh month dies.......... There was one other who the prophecy could have been about. His mother was a good friend of mine both in school and out. Her husband was often partnered with your Uncle James on Auror missions" "Who is the other one who was mentioned?" "Neville Longbottom. he too was 'born as the seventh month dies.' Although he was born a day earlier than you, that bit still applies."
The two of them sat there for a long time before Harry gathered up the courage to ask that important question that's been on his mind ever since he was told the Prophecy. "I have to go back, don't I?" "Yes, dear nephew, you do. Your family's waiting for you, as are your fiance's." "Riddle's still alive, isn't he?" "Yes, he is. What are you getting at, sweetie?" "Aunt Lily? I've made my decision, and I think you're gonna like it." Harry answered, a sly smirk on his face. Lily looked on in confusion that morphed into sudden realization. "Quick question, how do I get out of here?" "It's quite simple my dear nephew. All you have to do is wake up." The last two words were spoken by a familiar voice, but before Harry could say anything he was, once again, swallowed by darkness.............................
Meanwhile: in the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
In a hidden room behind the Headmaster's chair were several trinkets, thingamobobs, whatchamacallits, and other little devices, all keyed to a certain child, a certain child with jet-black hair, emerald-green eyes, and a lightning-shaped scar. Yes I'm talking about Harry Potter, these devices were used to monitor his health, his magic output and blocks, the(nonexistent) protections around Number Four, Privet Drive, and, last but not least, the Horcrux in said scar. It's the last two thingamabobs that are causing the ruckus inside the Headmaster's office, for you see, both have stopped working. Of course no one would know of it until said Headmaster returned from whatever Wizengamot meeting he's currently attending at the Ministry of Magic, which gives our heroes time to prepare for young Harry's return to the Wizarding World.
In a house that looked as though it could be blown down at any time, a certain red-headed witch was putting the final touches on a plan hatched by her, and the Headmaster to steal the Potter inheritance, her part being brainwashing her only daughter, Ginerva(or Ginny as she liked to be called) into falling for "The Boy-Who-Lived." That meant reading Harry Potter books, specifically the romance ones to Ginny. She also kept telling Ginny that it was her 'destiny' to marry Harry Potter when he defeated Lord Voldemort. When Ginny, and Harry were old enough, her mother would start dosing the both of them with love, lust, and fertility potions, so that when Harry died fighting Voldemort before giving Ginny a child, she could claim the Potter fortune, since Ginny would be carrying the Potter heir. That would ONLY work, IF Ginny didn't already know and approve of said plan, which she DIDN'T thanks to the dreams she's been having lately, A few days ago Ginny had a series of dreams(or more accurately visions) of the future, more specifically Harry's future should the Bumblebee's plans come to fruition.
She didn't like what she saw. She then made her decision: she would make herself a Potter, not by marriage but by adoption, and she wasn't alone in this, either. Her brothers, Fred and George(or Gred and Forge), and Charlie and Bill were behind their sister 100% and started training her in occlumency, and working on gaining immunities to love potions, and other means of manipulation. When Ginny starts school at Hogwarts in a couple more years she won't be the obsessive fangirl this time. This time, she would protect, and watch over her soon-to-be Big Bro.
In a Gringotts vault, a cup started spewing out a black tar-like substance from the emblem on its side. In a grim, old house a locket opened and started spewing out a black, tar-like substance as well, unnoticed save for an ancient-looking house-elf jumping for joy. In a small manor in Little Hangelton, a Stone, which was set in a ring, started spewing out a black, tar-like substance, only to fade and reappear inside a certain vault. In a manor in Whiltshire, a diary started spewing out a black tar-like substance from its pages. No one in the manor took notice of this, save a certain house-elf. In a room that comes and goes, in a certain castle, a tiara started spewing out a black, tar-like substance. Again, no one took notice of this, no one, that is, except the castle herself.
Waiting Room, Ponyville General, Ponyville, Equestria
"Well?" Sunset was getting a little impatient, given who's currently fighting for their lives. Hermione fidgeted for a few seconds, nibbling on her bottom lip as she does. Finally, she tells her tale, starting with her parents' death, how she ran away from the orphanage she was placed in, how she spent the next few years foraging on the streets, how she found Harry one day in the library, how they started going out together, their first kiss and the gold and silver glow that enveloped them both before dissapating, Sunset's eyes widened at that little tidbit, Gold and silver flash?! But that means they're........, to Harry losing to Dudley in another round of Harry Hunting, including an explanation of the game. "And the rest, as they say, is history." Hermione finished. Sunset's jaw dropped after hearing all that had befallen the boy-turned-colt. Harry was, somehow magically married to this girl-turned-filly! A tiny part of her brain kept shouting THEY CAN'T BE MARRIED! THEY'RE TOO YOUNG!, but a much larger part said They're perfect for each other. I can see it in her eyes.
"Now, can you tell me who you are in regards to my Harry?" It took a moment for Sunset.exe to reboot after that info dump, but once she got her bearings back she cleared her throat to answer the young girl-WOMAN!-turned filly-MARE! "I am Sunset Shimmer, Daughter of Princess Celestia, who is an Alicorn." Sunset answered. "So what are Alicorns, and are they considered royalty?" asked the curious filly. "Alicorns are the rarest species of Pony. They are a perfect blend of Unicorn, Pegasus, and Earth-Pony, and yes they ARE considered royalty. Take my mom for example: she raises and lowers the Sun every single day, thus giving her the title of Princess of the Sun. My aunt on the other hoof-" "Hoof?" questioned Hermione. "Here it's 'hoof' instead of 'hand' because we're equines. Now back to what I was saying: my aunt on the other hoof raises and lowers the Moon every night, also she helps ponies with their nightmares, literally, thus giving her the title of Princess of the Night.
"There's also two more Alicorns, both princesses. One being the Princess of Love, and the other is the Princess of Friendship." Sunset finished, and just like Sunset, Hermione.exe had stopped working in order to fully process what she had just been told. But there was one thing that stood out to Hermione, something she couldn't help but voice her curiosity on. "Wait, if your mum is a princess, wouldn't that automatically make YOU a princess too, thus making Harry a prince? Also I can't help but to notice YOU have yet to answer my question regarding who you are in regards to my Harry." Again with the 'my Harry' thing! [Groans] Guess I'll just grin, bear, and accept it. Sunset opened her mouth, but before she could get out a single noise, the doctor came by to inform the fiery-maned Unicorn about Harry's condition. Neither Sunset nor Hermione noticed the C.M.C. sitting there, listening in the whole time, each wore an equally worrisome expression.
"How is he, doc? Will he make it?" Sunset asked the doctor. "Well he's healing up nicely. He had several broken bones, multiple lacerations, his body is absolutely riddled with scars. It's a good thing the Crusaders made it here when they did. A few more minutes and he would've been beyond all help." Sunset said a quick and silent thank-you to Faust before asking "When can Harry have visitors?" "Right now actually. Just don't overwhelm the colt." Sunset, Hermione, and the C.M.C. made their way to where Harry was resting. A troubling thought entered Sunset's mind, concerning Harry: What if he's angry with me? What if he resents me? What if he never wants to see me ever again?! I can't bear the thought of that. I can't lose him. I'm so sorry Harry. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you, but I'm here now and I'm NEVER leaving you again, albino bumblebee be damned!
Meanwhile, in Canterlot:
Princess Celestia was reading a complaint sent to her from a "concerned citizen" relating to the "Explosion Felt Around Equus" when, suddenly, she froze as an icy chill ran down her body. I sense something, a presence I've not felt since...................... She, then stood up and excused herself from the room before zooming out the window, creating a Sonic Sunflare, heading toward a certain hospital in a certain town, unknowingly followed by her sister. What ails you so, Sister, that you go rushing off to Ponyville? thought the Princess of the Night while she struggled to keep up with her sister, neither of them knowing that a certain fiery-maned, amber Unicorn also sensed their approach. Perhaps the answer We seek may be found in Ponyville, also the answer to the visions My favorite trio of fillies received.
Harry awoke to the sound of beeping coming from his right. he tried to reach up and rub his forehead with his hoof-Wait hoof?! Harry brought his hand-HOOF! closer to his muzzle-What?! for inspection. Lo and behold, his hand was indeed a hoof. Harry thought back to his dream, and the revelations brought up in it. I-I'm a pony?! I'M A PONY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Harry had over a million questions going through his mind right now, but he focussed on one. Before he could say anything, the door opened and in walked several more ponies, Harry couldn't help but notice that said ponies were female, and varied as to the different types of pony(No he didn't 'take a peek"). There were two Unicorns, one a mare the other a filly, a Pegasus filly, and a regular(to his eyes) filly. What brought him back to reality was when the fiery-maned Unicorn mare asked him "How're you doing? You doing alright?"
"Y-yeah, I'm doing good." Harry answered shyly. Sunset gave a sigh of relief before pushing forward. "Good, 'cause there's a few things you need to know, and it concerns you, Hermione, the three fillies behind me, and me." "W-what is it? what's wrong?" Harry asked, worried that there was even more wrong with him than there normally was. "First let's get the introductions outta the way." Sunset turned and pointed to the three fillies and called them by name. "This is Sweetie Belle" "Hi there!" "Apple Bloom" "Howdy!" "and Scootaloo" "Wassup!" "and I'm Sunset Shimmer, Daughter of Princess Celestia...............................................and your mother." At first there was silence, then came the obligatory "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!" from Sweetie Belle, then came the "NO WAY!" from Scootaloo, followed by a "HUH?!" from a very confused Apple Bloom, finished by another short-circuit from Hermione. Harry, however, was stunned into silence. Sunset was his mother?! If so, then..............
"Who's my father?" Harry asked, eager to learn more about his new family. "Eh heh heh heh," chuckled Sunset, nervously. "Well, you don't, technically, HAVE a father-" There was a collective gasp from the colt and fillies. "you have a sire. We met on a luxury cruise ship. We fell in love, and one thing led to another, and 11 months later, here you are." Sunset explained. "That still didn't answer my question." Harry deadpanned. Just then. the door opened and another unicorn mare walked in, only this one was lavender with amethyst eyes, and an indigo mane and tail which had two streaks, one purple one hot-pink. She was also wearing a pair of glasses on her muzzle.
"Hello Harry, my name is....................................."
"Hello Harry. My name is Twilight Sparkle, but you can call me Sci-Twi, and I'm the one who sired you." said the lavender mare with a faint blush on her cheeks. The C.M.C. looked at Sci-Twi with a confused expression, until Sunset informed them that this was NOT Princess Twilight Sparkle, nor a Changeling. "Like Sunset said, we fell in love on a luxury liner, and from that love you were made." Harry couldn't believe his ears: he had TWO MUMS?! His thoughts were interrupted when Sunset asked "I wonder if our drawing is still in that safe." That made Harry wonder, What drawing? That caught Hermione's attention, but she decided to file THAT tidbit away for a later date. Harry, however, still had one question that needed answering so he asked his parents: "Why?Why was I left at the Dursleys? Why did you give me up? Didn't you want me anymore?" Harry was expecting a 'no' but what he got from his, newfound, mother was this. "Yes, we did want you, we wanted nothing more than to raise you, to be a family. However we, rarely ever get what we want."
"What do you mean?" asked a worried, yet curious, Harry. "What I mean is that we were tricked into giving custody of you over to your Aunt Lily by someone who we thought we trusted. We didn't want to, yet like so many others, we fell for his 'disappointed grandfather' routine" answered an apologetic Sunset, even as she said this, Sunset sensed two presences heading for the hospital at the speed of light. Hmmmm, must be Mom and Aunt Luna. They must've felt Harry's presence. Guess the reunion's gonna happen sooner than later. "What did it feel like?" the curious colt asked. "It felt like I wasn't in control of my own body, like something else took over and forced me to give you away. Not only that, but something tells me that I was Obliviated." the amber Unicorn answered sadly. Of course, nothing could've shocked her more than her son's next words. "This person, the one who manipulated you, wouldn't happen to be 'Dumbledore' would it?"
Not only did that question shock both her AND Sci-Twi, but it also piqued their curiosity. HOW?! How did he know that name?! Wait, could he be.........................? Sci-Twi, however, decided to give voice to Sunset's thoughts. "Harry, how did you know that name? Did anyone tell you?" she asked. "My Aunt Fire Lily, she didn't say his name exactly, more like she thought it. She was really loud." That cinched it for Sunset, Eeyup, he is. Time to start his training. but first she finally noticed the bandaged bulges at Harry's sides, so she asked the doc if it was ok to remove them. with the doctor's permission, Sunset removed the bandages only to reveal a pair of majestic wings! Both she and Sci-Twi were rendered speechless, not to mention the two late arrivals. HE'S AN ALICORN?!
Meanwhile back in the Wizarding World, a certain meddling headmaster FINALLY made it back to his office at Hogwarts. Bloody goblins, can't they see that the contract was for the Greater Good?! Not only that, but the Flamels wouldn't even let him borrow the Stone! He needed it to produce the Elixir so that he could live comfortably in the distant future. Now, how was he supposed to explain THIS to a certain red-headed banshee that was one of his most loyal supporters? He, then went to check the various magical doohickies, and thingamajiggers that were tied to the boy-turned-Alicorn, only to find, to his dismay, that all but two of the doodads had blown up. It was only thanks to a shield charm that his office was spared. This led to only one thought going through his head: "Oh, bugger." At the Burrow, things were hectic as usual. Molly was busy in the kitchen making lunch, brewing potions, and dreaming of what she was going to do with the money from the Potter Vaults. Ron was daydreaming about all the "perks" that would come with being friends with the "Boy-Who-Lived." Ginny, however, was busy with her magic training to protect not only herself, but her soon-to-be new family.
She had already mastered Occlumency, which will come in handy against a certain meddling old goat, and her dueling's come a long way.
"Well Sunset?" asked the Sun Princess. "Aren't you going to introduce us to your new friends?" This had the effect of Sunset giving a nervous laugh. "H-hey Mom, long time no see." She, then pointed to the bushy-maned Unicorn filly to her right. "This is Hermione Potter, nee Granger, and on the bed is Hadrian, or Harry for short, Potter...............................my son. Harry, Hermione, allow me to introduce the rulers of Equestria, their Royal Majesties, Princess Celestia of the Day, and Princess Luna of the Night." Hermione went to give a bow.................................only to fall flat on her face. Harry however merely dipped his head in respect to the two monarchs. Princess Celestia tittered a bit at the bushy-maned Unicorn filly, while Princess Luna merely shook her head in disapproval of her sister's antics.
"'Tis truly a honour to greet the son of Our-MY niece, Sunset Shimmer, young Hadrian. Not to mention your Lady. We are Luna, Princess of the Night, Bringer of the Moon, and Guardian of Dreams." said Princess Luna, remarkably WITHOUT using the R.C.V. "Though you can call us Auntie." "Pleased to meet you as well um
) Anywho, back with the trio, they were a yellow red-maned Earth-Pony, an orange magenta-maned Pegasus, and a marshmallow-white, light purple and pink maned Unicorn.
