It wasnt until everyone checked out of the hospital when Discord realized something. "Hey, we never named our little one." He said.

"Hey your right! We gotta name this little pony." Fluttershy said.

"So....any ideas?" Discord asked, setting down his daughter. The filly looked at the grass they were on. She rolled around in it.

"She reminds me of an old friend of mine. She loved everything about nature and I actually saw her roll around in grass a few times, just like she is doing." Fluttershy said. "Before I moved to Cloudsdale, she was my best friend. We did everything together, we played together, ate together, went to school together, like we were sisters." She said smiling.

"What happened to her?" Discord asked.

"Well, a few weeks after I left I recieved a note that she...that she..." She closed her eyes and frowned. "That she had died." Fluttershy said, letting a tear escape.

"Oh, sorry I asked." Discord said. Fluttershy mumbled something that sounded like 'it's ok'. "What was her name." Discord asked.

"Her name was Lidasia, but everyone called her Lydia for short." Fluttershy said.

"So we should name her Lidasia?" Discord asked.

"Yes, but we shall call her Lydia for short." Fluttershy said.

"Hey guys!" Said a voice behind them. They turned and saw RainbowDash flying towards them with her daughter on her back.

"RainbowDash, do you think its a good idea to fly when you just got out of the hospital?" Fluttershy asked.

"Pshaw, it dont hurt....much." She said. "Anyway, have you guys decided a name for your filly? 'Cause I have! Say hello to little Starshine!" RainbowDash said.

"Yes we have, we named her Lidasia, but were gonna call her Lydia for short." Fluttershy said. They heard a tinkling noise and looked at Lydia, who disappeared with a poof. "Heyy! Where did she go?" Fluttershy asked.

"Ahh that's my girl." Discord said. Fluttershy glared at him. "I mean, wherever did she go?" He said forcing a smile on his face with a nervous laugh.

"Hey I found her!" RainbowDash said.

"Really? Where?" Fluttershy asked.

"Shes on my back with Starshine." RainbowDash said. Starshine and Lydia stared at each other. Starshine used her hoof to gently touch Lydia's nuzzle. She pulled it back and smiled happily. Lydia smiled as well.

"Looks like some ponies are getting along." Said a voice behind Fluttershy, causing her to flinch. RainbowDash chuckled. Fluttershy turned and saw Twilight. "Hey, I want all of you to come to my library in 15 minutes." The purple alicorn said. They nodded as Twilight flew back to her library.


They arrived at the library in 15 minutes exactly. When they walked in it was completely dark. "Why is it so dark?" RainbowDash asked.

"I think I found the light switch." Discord said. He flicked the switch upwards and were greeted by all their friends and family in a huge surprise yell.

"Whoa what's this about?" Fluttershy asked.

"It's a baby shower!" Pinkie said.

"A what?'' RainbowDash asked.

"It's where we give gifts to the new fillies." Twilight said.

"Oh open my gifts first!" Pinkie said shoving the gifts to Rainbow and Fluttershy. Fluttershy opened the box to find a lot of toys. RainbowDash recieved the same thing. "They belonged to my sister, but she out grew them! So I am trusting you to play with them forever and ever!" Pinkie said!

"Thank you very much Pinkie." Fluttershy said.

"Thanks Pinkie, now Starshine wont ever get bored!" RainbowDash said happily.

Lydia and Starshine peeked in the toy boxes. "Go ahead and open my gifts." Rarity said. Her box was much more decorated with a silver and red ribbon tied around it. Fluttershy opened it and saw some small pajamas. "I made them a few days ago for your fillies. I hope you like it." Rarity said.

Fluttershy nodded her thanks. RainbowDash did the same.

"Open mine next, sugarcube." Applejack said. Fluttershy opened the box and found a . "They helped me grow and I hope they help yours grow as well." Applejack said.

"Thank you so much." Fluttershy said. RainbowDash nodded.

"This is from me to you guys!" Scootaloo said happily. They were both large boxes. When Fluttershy opened it, she saw a spherical shaped object. Fluttershy picked it up and examined it. It was a yellow yes or no question answerer. "It helped me through some tough times." Scootaloo said. RainbowDash recieved the same, except hers was blue.

"Now open mine!" Sweetie Belle said. Fluttershy opened it and saw a microphone that records voices and music. "It should entertain them, like it did me." Sweetie Belle said.

"Y'all open mine next!" Applebloom said. Fluttershy and RainbowDash opened the box and saw two bracelets that had the words 'Friends 4ever'. "I figured your fillies would be the best a' friends." Applebloom said.

"I guess you must open my present." Twilight said. Man when I get home imma take a nap. Discord thought. Fluttershy and RainbowDash opened the boxes to see coloring books. "These should entertain and teach them while they grow." Twilight said.

"I...I don't know what to say, you all are the best of friends a pony could have!" Fluttershy said.

"You guys are AMAZING! Thank you very much." RainbowDash said.

"But that's not all." Said a voice behind them. They turned and saw Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. Everyone bowed. "Me and Luna took our time on making these presents. Fluttershy, RainbowDash, make sure they keep these forever, and they never lose them." Celestia said. Fluttershy and RainbowDash nodded.

Celestia stepped towards Lydia. Lydia looked up at her. Celestia's horn glowed and a hat appeared on Lydia's head. The hat had a spinner on the top. Luna stepped forward to Starshine. Starshine looked up at Luna. Luna's horn glowed and a necklace appeared around Starshine's neck. The bracelet had a silver chain with a navy blue heart and a gold outline.

"Wow...thank you so much, I...I am so happy." Fluttershy said.

"Thank you so much!" RainbowDash said.

"We must get going, but first..." Celestia walked towards Discord. "Discord, I trust you won't show your daughter anything chaotic, only good." Celestia said. Discord nodded.

"I promise." Discord said.


Author's Note

Oh yea Lydia is meant to look SIMILAR to Screwball from Daughter of Discord. No I did not steal her, I had permission, mind you. Also for those of you who dont like my beginning or think that Lydia isn't a pony name, just deal with it and you will see the story gets better. You will adjust.
