Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I awoke and saw Celestia in the huge bed next to me asleep but not anywhere close to me.I let sleep take me again until morning.When I awoke again I saw Celestia come back in through the balcony and noticed she had a sun on her flank and I remembered the six ponies I saw yesterday had marks on their flanks as well.She smiled toward me with care in her eyes.

"Good morning, Amos.Today, I want to introduce you to my sister once we get some food."she said with that same motherly tone.

"Good morning to you, too."I smiled as a servant pony had come up with a tray on his back and one on his head.

Celestia's horn started to glow a soft gold as the trays also did lifting them up and bringing one to a rest on my chest (rhyme not intended) she brought the other to her as she lifted food from it and started eating the breakfast with the same soft gold glow on each food item.I started eating as well with two eggs being on my tray with an orange.I began to speak between bites.

"What are you doing to lift the food?"I asked with calmly, curiosity burning inside me.

Celestia responded,"I am using magic...I assume they didn't have such a thing as magic on your world."I shook my head finishing my eggs before taking a bite from my orange.

"I never ate this good tasting food...I always had to eat simple bread and water."I recalled that was the only meal I would get every other day.Celestia sensed my trouble within my self and she walked over setting her empty tray with mine on a table next to the door.She spoke as she nuzzled my cheek.

"You have nothing to worry about any more, Amos.I am here to take care of you,"Celestia then headed to the door.

I smiled brightly,"So, you are like my new mother?"I asked and she nodded with a caring smile before turning around back to the door.

"I am going to go get my sister."she stated then asked,"How old are you anyways?"she then opened the door with her magic.

"I am ten years old...and my birthday is February fourth."I replied and she headed out the door.

"I will be back soon."Celestia said before closing the door after her again using her magic.

It left me to think about many things in this place they call Equestria.It made me wonder just what everything was and to put together some things I had figured out.I thought my first move would be to ask if Rarity could make me some new clothes so I would have more than one outfit.Then I would learn how to protect myself in case something bad might of happened.Next I would learn more about this place and how everything works.I had looked at the clock and it had been seventeen minutes before the door glowed a deep blue and opened revealing Celestia and what I would assume is her sister.

Celestia came over and stood closest my head looking over with her sister next to her wings folded in.

Celestia's sister had a deep blue with a blue flowing mane that sparkled like the night sky and I found myself staring at it once I was done checking her features.I noticed there was a crescent moon on her flank.

Celestia's sister started up clearing her throat making me snap out and realize what I was doing.I felt the heat on my cheeks and knew I was blushing a bit.I still didn't look away I just focused my attention on her face rather than her mane.

"So you must be Amos.I heard plenty of you from my sister.I am Princess Luna.But just call me Luna."she stuck out her hoof for a moment until I realized she wanted to shake.I grabbed her hoof the best I could with the pain tablet wearing off.I began.

"It's nice to meet you, Luna.Your mane reminds me of the beautiful night sky."I glanced back over to it then met her eyes with mine and she smiled hugging me suddenly.I winced in pain and she immediately let go of me carefully.

"You really think so?!"she said cheerfully and I nodded before speaking.

"Yeah, Staring up at the stars and moon helped calm me down and sleep when I was...still back there."I kept a half-hearted smile while she was smiling big.

"See, Luna.I told you somepony or someone likes your nights."Celestia said smiling.

Luna left quietly after a while of talking and soon after somepony walked in grabbed the trays and left the pain suppressants which I took gladly.The rest of the day me and Celestia talked until she was called down to court.

Most days went with me and Celestia talking and i slowly made recovery while a bed was made and brought into the room.On a few occasions Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow, Rarity, and Pinkie would come see me.Most of the times Twilight would come alone or when they all came Fluttershy would come but not nearly as often.Luna would sometimes come in and see me.I would sometimes call Celestia mom if I needed her attention which helped me forget about the other parents I used to have.Life was good here.
