Birth

Load Full StoryNext Chapter

I know this is weird, but I actually remember quite a bit from my birth. I remember the warmth suddenly changing from nice and cozy to just cool and kinda humid. I didn't like it. I cried for the first time and i felt some warm hooves holding me. I remember hearing a soft and fatigued voice mutter

"My little colt....Shining night..."

I then felt myself being rolled away. At that time my eyes weren't developed for sight. All i could do was hear and smell. Even those were very basic. The next thing i know i hear a deep voice and the same loving, quiet one. The latter sounded closer. I felt a soft brush across my face. I soon felt a soft cushion beneath me. I knew some how that I was safe. I felt warm and comfortable. I felt as if I could lay there forever and not be unhappy or annoyed. I soon fell asleep. As soon as I awoke I found something streaming down my face. I couldn't help but wonder. Am i dying? So soon? I felt a strong but loving pair of hooves pick me up and put something to my small and screaming mouth. I suckled at it and soon found a sweet liquid coming down my throat. I stopped crying. Enjoying the feeling. When it ended i was laid down once again and covered with a soft and comforting blanket. I felt at peace once again.

Sooner than i knew it was my first birthday. I hadn't any friends as of that day. My parents were very protective of me and only let me out when they both had a purpose. Nothing mattered to me. I was simply precious cargo. As long as one of them, preferably my mother, was with me. I was happy. My first contact with another pony was a very nice one. They had green mane and a yellow coat. She was just younger than me. She and I were set down to play. I crawled over as best i could. I poked their side. Wondering if they would hurt me. I saw them look at me, just as curious as I was. We played with the blocks. they made a magnificent castle. The best i could muster was a small tower. In our own special way i said my name. She shared her's.

"Annabelle Red-Dawn"

Nothing at that time seemed to matter to me. But soon she came to be my best friend, and first Crush
