MLP Finding your true family

Chapter one, Any other day

“Hay have you heard, hey!! Your listening you two??” Apple bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were all hanging out at the cutie mark clubhouse, Apple Bloom was talking while Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle were busy planning out their next attempt to get their cutie marks and was clearly not listening to what Apple Bloom was saying. “Sorry Apple Bloom, what was you saying?” Both Sweetie and Scootaloo looked up to look at their friend with apoligetic faces. “As I was saying, There’s this huge event happening in Canterlot, big sister Apple Jack and her friends are going, My sister says I can come too see and there Princess Celestria will pick one random pony and give that pony one request. He or She can ask for whatever he or she wants and the princess will do it, you know..within reason of cause.” Apple Bloom puffed up her chest and carried on “If one of us gets picked, we could ask the princess for our cutie marks!!” It was a very good idea but Scootaloo doubt Princess Celestria would just magic up the cutie mark of a filly if asked since that is something every pony has to descover their own way. Sweetie’s voice broke Scootaloo’s trail of thought as she started again to think of ways to discover their marks the hard way. “I remember now, my sister said she’d take me too, I cant wait to go.” Both Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle was just about to ask Scootaloo if Rainbow siad if she could also go to Canterlot when the voices of Rarity calling Sweetie Belle in for the night and Apple Jack could be heard calling outside. Scootaloo watched as her two friends went off with their family, she alone stayed in the tree house. She didn’t have to wait long however as Rainbow Dash landed just outside after flying around. Scootaloo didn’t even wait to be called, she saw the flash of the rainbow coloured tail and smiled, running over to the cyan blue pegusas and hugged her big sister, though not related by blood Dash for all Scootaloo cared was family. “Say Dash, can I go to Canterlot with you tomorrow?” Rainbow looked down at the beaming young filly and smiled back. “No, because we heading to Canterlot now, I already got our room ready for us kiddo, come on I’ll fly you.”

Scootaloo just loves being carried while Rainbow flew high in the sky, Scootaloo spread her small wings as far as they go making it feel like she was also flying high in the sky. Then she saw it, the great buildings and gardens of Canterlot, from the sky everything looked so small, the closer they got though the bigger everything became, It didn’t take Dash long to find her requested open window and she landed inside after flying inside the room for her and Scootaloo. Closing the window both Dash and Scootaloo slept the rest of the night, to get ready for the big day tomorrow. The next day came and the big event had started, every pony who turned up wrote their name on the guest list so Celestia knew who had came to pick that one day. Outside, Rainbow Dash, beside her was young Scootaloo and not forgetting there was also Pinkie, Fluttershy, Rarity and Sweetie, Twilight and of cause Apple Jack and Apple Bloom all together. It was a party to remember, to celebrate the magic of friendship and good times. When the time came for Celestria to walk up the main stage in the gardens every pony hushed and watched the alicorn with respect. “Welcome my little ponies and I thank you all for coming to celebrate this day with everyone. Now as said, I will randomly pick one name out and that pony can ask one thing from me” Everyone watched in silence as one of the pony guards held a rather large box in frunt of the princess. Using the magic of her horn she pulled out a folded piece of paper, unfolding it and called out the name, Rainbow Dash. Every Pony cheered hard as Rainbow took flight and landed before Celestria, bowing her head low in respect for the princess. “And what is it I can do for you Rainbow Dash?” Dash thought hard on what she wanted, she knew she wanted to join the wonder bolts as that was her goal, as she was thinking what to ask for she glanced to the crowd, at her friends. She saw Pinkie Pie bouncing with a huge smile on her face and somehow out of no-where Pinkie brought out a flag with Rainbow dash’s head on it. Twilight looked up at Dash and just smiled and nodded her head, Fluttershy was tring not to be so noticed but still managed to give her good friend rainbow an encouraging smile, Rarity and Sweetie belle was both very happy for Rainbow and watched on with a smile. Apple Jack and Apple Bloom was also smiling, Apple Jack tipped her hat to Rainbow and like Twilight she also nodded her head and then Rainbow’s eyes fell on Scootaloo. She was happy for her big sister, Rainbow could see that in her little sister but seeing her adopted sister smiling at her with those admired filled eyes made it clear to Rainbow what to ask the princess. Dash turned back to Celestria and instead of speaking outloud she whispered into the princess’s ear. The princess gived a small smile and nodded. As Celestria spread her wings and took to the sky Rainbow turned back to Scootaloo from the stage and winked to the little filly, watched as the princess landed right in front of Scootaloo. “Your friend and big sister Rainbow told me to allow the wish for one thing to be given to you young Scootaloo. So tell me, what is it you wish for? If I can make it happen I will.” Scootaloo couldn’t believe her ears, Dash did this for her…and there before her awaited Celestria with her answer. “Well…..um….I know I have Dash and I got like the coolest friends any filly could ever want but, if you could do me just one thing…any one thing, I would like a dad or a mom…a pearent in my life..but I’m most likely asking for too much so…” Celestria held up her front hoof to silence the filly. “It shall be done, I Celestria will will fufill your request. Go now and have fun with your friends, I must speak to Twilight and her friends now.”

The Princess watched as Scootaloo, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle started to play and have fun together. After bidding her guests to have fun and to enjoy the celabration she headed inside the palace closely followed by Twilight and the others. On arriving at their destantion she stopped in a strange circle room, on the floor was strange shapes and symbols painted on the tiles and right in the middle of the room was an orb. “Princess..how exactly are you going to fufill that request?” Celestria expected this question from twilight. “You six….look into the orb and I will explain” Using the power of her horn she activated the power of the orb. The six ponies looked in to see a human sitting on his bed playing on this strange device. Celestria went on explaining, “I have been studying this human for meny weeks and though he is a strange one he alone has been true to our ways and believes in us like no other human. Though he is but a human Iwill allow a way for you six and scootaloo to talk with this human…I believe this human will also make a great father for Scootaloo, I will of cause speak with him first. Just understand for our safty when arriving to his world you will not be a pony but will take a human form. I will speak with him tonight, Twilight before you ask me questions, first give this a chance and learn through this new experience. Now I bid you to leave while I enter the world of the humans.”

Chapter 2, A dream comes true

True to the princess’s word using the magic of her horn she made her way to the world of humans, right outside the human’s house they were just looking at. Celestria took a quick look at herself as she now stood on two human legs, looking down calmly at her now human hands. She could see her reflection in the glass of the front door, her long pale blue hair had also green and pink highlights in it. She saw her purple eyes look right back at her in her own reflection at her human body. Looking down at what she was wearing, she noticed she was wearing a long flowing silvery white dress. Satisfied she knocked at the door loudly three times. THUD THUD THUD, when the door was opened Celestia found herself looking at a rather different, older looking human male. Remaining calm she nodded her head with a smile and spoke “I come to speak with Alan, is he present?” The human male looked confused at the person before him at the way she was speaking but finally let her in before calling for Alan. “ALAN!! Someone to see you!!” Celestia watched as the confused male still made his way up stairs leaving the princess down in the living room with only a huge golden brown alsatian dog for company.

Before Alan’s brother had called up to him, Alan was playing his latest game on his play station 3, taking a look at the time first he was wondering who it could be that has come to see him. He knew it wasn’t his friends Jamie or Mary cause they would go straight to his room and he wasn’[t expecting anyone to call for him. Putting Sora on pause, the main character in Kingdom Hearts he made his way down stairs and looked in the living room to see who it was that came to see him. He saw a female sitting down stroking the dog wearing a strange long flowing silvery white dress, her hair was also a strange pale blue colour with hints of green and pink in it. Celestia turned her purple eyes up and looked at Alan who was still tring to figure out who this girl was as he was sure he had never seen anyone like her before. Celestia broke the silence and spoke “I know who you are, your name is Alan Matthew Thomas though your friends call you Alan, come may we speak in the privacy of your bedroom, there I will explain everything to you and why I have also came here to speak with you” Alan was sure he heard that way of talking before but from where…it was bugging him but he just knew he have heard that voice before. He know who this girl was but he couldn’t think right now where he knew that voice. He found himself responding to Celestia “Sure, it’s up here..follow me” Celestia followed Alan up stairs and into the smallest bedroom upstairs which was a Alan’s bedroom, She sat herself gracefully on the edge of the bed while Alan sat at his usual spot on the other side watching the famale before him still tring to figure out where he knew her. Celestria looked around and found herself smiling at all the pony posters he had up on his walls and also his figures and plushies he had of different ponies. She gazed to alan and started to explain “Alan, I will now answer what is going through your head, yes you do know me very well, you see Alan I am not human. Now before I tell you more you must wait till I am done talking before you intrupt me. Do I make myself clear?” She saw him nod as the news this person was not human confused him but Celestia knew she would soon help him to understand. “I am Princess Celestia from the show you know as My Little Pony, Friendship of Magic” She smiled to see the reaction on Alan’s face, she knew it was hard to believe but she knew this one…he alone would believe and she could see she was right. The believe Alan had in her words were there to see, Celestria continued. “Today in Equestria, there is a celebration about the magic of friendship, during the celebration I picked one pony to request anything from me and that pony I randomly picked was Rainbow Dash. However she told me there was nothing she wished from me and so requested I would ask if I could do one thing for Scootaloo instead. I agreed and asked Scootaloo and she told me she wished for someone she could call mom or dad. Now there are meny ponies I could have picked for that task alone but I believe the best….person for that job was not a pony but a human. You Alan, do not deside on this straight away, I will return the next day, with young Scootaloo. There I wish for your answer” She was done and her eyes eyes remained on Alan the whole time. “Celestia..no, Princess Celestia. It is a great honour to speak with you, I always knew you was real and I will gladly look after Scootaloo or any other pony for that matter. I will not let you down princess. I look foreward to your coming tomorrow, is there anything I need to know?” Celestia didn’t expect him to agree straight away, she knew he was different but she did not see that coming. It made her smile “I will give Twilight and her friends the ability to cross over to this world as well as young Scootaloo and her friends. I just ask you once they are here..you look after them. Now I will take my leave. Await me tomorrow Alan, I will see you then” Alan watched as the human body of Celestia started to glow bright, brighter and then the light faded away into nothingness. The only prove Alan has was the imprint on his bed where someone was sitting in the place Celestria was sitting not too long ago.

A new place

Chapter 3, A new place

On returning to Canterlot, Celestia took a quick check of herself by looking down at her once again pony body. Taking a glance at the magical opening she had created that leads to the world of humans she remained silent in thought wondering what to do with the swerling magical energy before her. She didn’t want just any pony to end up in the other world just yet…who knows what dangers are out there in the other world. No Celestia was not going to take that chance so she had to do something about the magical energy now before her. As Celestia was thinking, her sister Luna walked in walking up behind the unawear Celestia. ”Sister…what are you doing, looking at the magical energy so?” Not turning her head to look at her younger sister but Celestia did smile to hear the voice of her younger sister. “Luna….think you can help me? I wish to make the energy smaller and contain it…than make more of the same thing with the same energy inside. Like a necklace for chosen ponies to wear” Luna agreed to help her sister, resting her horn next to Celestia focusing on the task at hand. With the power of both princesses there before them was no more than 10 necklaces. “Thank you my sister, you have been a great help. Now Imust ask you to watch over things here as I have a task to do still. Can I count on you little sister?”

“Of cause sister, I wont let you down.” Satisfied with Luna’s answer Celestia levied a bag and the necklaces to her, the necklaces went inside the bag before the bag was placed on her back. Leaving Luna in charge gracefully Celestia made her way to where Dash and Scootaloo was staying.

“Am I doing it? Hay…hay Dash!! How am I doing?” The small orange filly was flapping her little wings wildly tring to fly, but not leaving the ground. She heard Dash giggle which made the filly stop flapping her wings and turned to face Dash. “Keep going at it kiddo, you’ll get it eventully” Neither was aware that Celestia had entered the room and was quietly watching the small filly having fun with her big sister in sorts. Scootaloo was play fighting with Dash, tring to pin her down only to get kicked off lightly….right into Celestia. On noticing Scootaloo quickly got up off the princess and was quick to apoligize. “Relax young pony, it is good to see a filly like yourself having fun. I came to honour what I agreed to do for you. Rainbow Dash, she will be in safe hoofs and will return here but I must ask you to wait here. Now young filly, wear this if you would” Scootaloo watched as Celestia magiced a necklace with a strange centre out from her bag, and placed it around her neck. “Now…what I have given you is no toy and must not be over used. It is a gateway to another world, I wish you to come to the other world with me young one, I promice you everything will be fine” Celestia after putting her own necklace on smiled at the confused and nervous filly. Tapping both her own and Scootaloo’s necklace with her hoof three times to activate the magic inside.

When Scootaloo was outside she found herself looking at a strange new place, creatures walking around on two legs, not really noticing she too was on two legs herself. She happened to be wearing an orange top and a white skirt. Her shocking pink hair was spiked at the front and flat down the back. Standing beside her was a tall female with long pale blue hair that had green and pink highlights in it and was wearing a long silvery gown. Celestia smiled down “Relax, you are now what these creatures call a human, come follow me to where I wish to show you.” Nervously following the princess listening as she explained the best she could but not really knowing everything, unable to explain what a car was or a plane since she didn’t really know herself. Finally the princess stopped outside a building, she lifted the small child and told her to press the button. Scootaloo didn’t really understand why, but she pushed it all the same, a faint ding dong sound was heard after pressing the doorbell, Celestia waited patiently outside with young scootaloo for some person to answer the door. A shodow of a person appeared in the glass of the front door and the sound of the door was heard before it opened, it was Alan. He knew the tall lady was the princess Celestia and he had a good idea why the small shocking ping haired girl was seeing she was with Celestia. Without a word, gently Celestia pushed Scootaloo inside the building before coming in herself. Celestia remembered the way to Alan’s bedroom and led Scootaloo there, Alan relocking up the front door but wasn’t long to joined the two in his own bedroom. “As promiced Alan, I have returned and yes beside me is the young filly Scootaloo” Celestia paused to look down at the small girl who was tring to hide after still being confused. “Your answer Alan Matthew Thomas, I await to hear it now” Her eyes were locked into Alan’s watching him. “Princess, I thought about what we spoke about last and I will gladly look after Scoots as my daughter” Smiling he turned to face the still confused and lost Scootaloo “Hey kid…If you want I’ll help to look after you as your father so you don’t need to be alone anymore.” Scootaloo looked up from Celestia to Alan, both whom was watching her, finally she stopped tring to hide and spoke up to Alan “um…hi..um, thank you..I didn’t know there was other worlds out there intill the princess brought me here..” Alan smiled warmly, when Celestia spoke next he turned to listen “If it is okay with both you and Scootaloo I wish to leave her with you for one day…to see if I was right about you Alan.” She knew Scootaloo was not too sure about staying in a new place that she didn’t know but was happy to see her nod her head all the same, “Okay, I can keep an eye on her for a day, don’t you worry kiddo your in safe hands…uh..hoofs heh. I’ll look after you, I promise” Giving Scootaloo one final look saying before leaving “If at any time you wish to return to Equestia, tap your necklace three times” and with that she was gone after she had tapped hers the three times. Looking around at Alan’s room she saw many strange but intresting things…like Alan’s PS3 and his wii all plugged into one wide screen tv. While looking around she asked “So….does this mean I call you dad? Can I..?” Alan ruffled the hair of Scootaloo “Call me what you feel most comfortable in calling me Scoots, okay” Feeling a little more confident about the new place Scootaloo smiled and answered back “Okay dad!”
