The Birth of a Legend

Draco paced back in forth in the waiting room, walking on all fours as he panted.

"When are they gonna be done? How long has it been? Ugh..." The draconequus fell onto one of the chairs in the waiting room next to Comet Tail, who was sitting next to Stardust Shot.

Stardust was a navy blue unicorn mare with a black and red mane that was always held up in a braid and a her tail was always held up in a braid also. Her cutie mark was green camera, to represent her talent of photography.

Comet Tail was a yellow unicorn with a blue mane and tail. His cutie mark was a star followed by a comet trail, to represent his talent of magic. His marefriend was Stardust Shot.

"Draco... Sh... Calm down big boy. Birth takes time, she has only been in there for an hour. You would still be in there if you weren't freaking out. So calm your self." Star scolded him as she rolled her eyes.

"What was I thinking that night? Ugh! I'm so stupid." Draco grumbled as he hit his head off the wall.

"Draco, everyony has urges. You are lucky that Ratchet let you go through with your urges, Star never lets me!" Comet chuckled but soon stopped as he felt a hoof in his side and a glare from Stardust.

"I didn't even think she could get pregnant! I mean, I am a bucking draconequus and she is a pony! How does that even work?" Draco continued on his rant, everypony else ignoring him as he had a breakdown in front of all of them. Nurse Redheart came out and cleared her throat and Draco turned his head. He stopped banging his head on the wall and smiled.

"Ratchet would like to see Draco." Draco tumbled over before leaning down on all fours and squeeing. The nurse nodded and turned around. She lead Draco to the Ratchet's room and then let him in. He looked at the brown blob that Ratchet held close to her body and he slowly walked up to the bed where a tired looking Ratchet was almost asleep. She smiled down at Draco.

"H-Hi..." She yawned, and so did the brown blob that she was holding. "Here. Hold him." Ratchet smiled as Draco picked up the colt from her arms. "I think.. His name should... Be Zeus..." She smiled up at Draco.

"Flash, love, Zeus sounds wonderful." Draco smiled as he looked down at Zeus. The colt had a brown body. His front legs were tiger legs, and his tail was a red snake tail with a small mace at the end. He had tiny blue wings and a black messy mane. The draconequus foal in his arms moved around and looked up at his father. His eyes were hazel, just like Ratchet's. The foal yawned again and nuzzled himself into the larger draconequus' fur. Draco smiled down at Ratchet.

"Draco... Put him in that crib right there.. And then get your ass over here and cuddle with me." Draco chuckled and nodded as he walked over and laid the colt down in the crib and then walking over to the side of the bed and climbing in. He barely fit, but he managed once Ratchet had pushed herself into him.

"I don't think we should be doing this..." Draco mumbled as he weakly put up a fight.

"Pffft. Rules are made to be broken." Ratchet murmured as she nuzzled up into the draonequus. Draco laughed to himself. Even after giving birth, Ratchet was still her old self.

"Hello?" A happy sounding voice rang trough Ratchet's ears in her peaceful slumber. The new mother let out a soft groan as the voice was heard again, but this time closer. "Ratchet?"

"Nfggh.. Gr......" Flash said with a groan as she rolled around. She reached her hooves out to look for Draco, but only found the coldness of the air outside of the blanket. The voice giggled and Ratchet groaned again. "Urrghh...."

"Wake up sleepy head! It's Star." The blue blob in Ratchet's vision chimed happily as the pegasus rubbed the tiredness from her eyes.

"H-How long have I been s-sleeping?" The white pegasus pony said through a quiet yawn as her vision cleared and she looked up at her friend.

"Hm... Three hours? The nurse didn't let me in because you were sleeping, but pffft who cares about rules! Draco was about to leave so they let me come in." Star continued in her happy tone as she used her magic to move some hair away from Ratchet's eyes.

"How long has he been gone?" Ratchet asked as she sat up in the bed. She moved her wings around, even though they are mechanical they can still get sore, they act just like real wings.

"Draco.. He left like an hour ago. He was surprised that you didn't wake up when he was leaving. Oh and Zeus hasn't moved a bit. He is sleeping, still. I wouldn't doubt if he is gonna wake up soon." The unicorn continued in a more normal tone as she sat down by the bed. "By the way, I like the name you gave him. It fits the colt perfectly." Star smiled at her friend who was still trying to wake up from her nap.

"I have always liked the name Zeus... And I looked at him.. And it fit him perfectly..." The pegasus explained as she yawned again and slid down under the covers of the bed. "At least I don't have to work for a while." Star chuckled to herself.

"I wouldn't say that Ratchet." Star giggled again. "I don't think that you and Draco will get any alone time any time soon. I had to take care of a foal for a week, it was not easy."

"Oh yeah. That makes me feel good." Ratchet joked as she glared at her friend. Star grinned at her as she stifled a laugh.

"I'm happy I could make you happier. I didn't think that would make you happy, but, I'll take it." Star joked right back at Ratchet, who just laughed in response.

"Dudududududud. You are an asshat, you know that?"

"If I'm an asshat, then you're a shithead." Star responded with a sarcastic tone. Ratchet shook her head as she laughed.

"Oh shit... I just realized that I have no idea how to be a mother." Ratchet muttered as she looked over at the crib, and thank Celestia, Zeus was still sleeping.

"Ha. Good luck." The unicorn shouted out in a high tone as she giggled.

"Oh yeah, thanks. I think I'll need more than good luck." Ratchet muttered as she rolled her eyes at her friend.

"Maybe you just need some help." A low voice chimed in as a draconequus walked in the room. Ratchet smiled and fluttered her wings.

"Draco!!" She exclaimed happily as she continued to flutter her wings with a big goofy grin on her face. The draconequus chuckled to himself as he walked over to the other side of the bed and lightly nuzzled Ratchet. The pegasus wrapped her hooves around Draco's head and pulled him in. She pressed her lips to his and held him close for a few moments before she released him. Star and Ratchet both started having a laughing fit when they looked at Draco, he was blushing and his wings were flared out.

Star looked up at the clock. It was beginning to get dark outside, Luna would raise the moon soon.

"Alright love birds.. I gotta run. It is getting dark out and I wanna get home. Bye!" Star waved as she ran out the door, the two new parents waved back before they both looked at each other.

"Huh. That was kinda sudden..." Draco stated, and Flash agreed.

After three long, boring days of sitting around in a hospital, Ratchet and Zeus were finally free to go.

"It's about fucking time they let me out of this hospital." Ratchet huffed as she walked outside. Behind her was a tired looking draconequus that was holding a small ball of brown and black, all wrapped up in a blue blanket. Draco was walking on two legs, something that he rarely did. Flash beat her wings and lifted up into the air. She turned around and looked down at Draco with a smile. "Come on big boy, we gotta get home!" The white pegasus yelled down as Draco lifted up into the air. Flash turned around and stared to head towards their cloud home, with Draco right on her tail.

It had been a few months since Flash could fly like this. She did flips and twirls in the air, and she loved it. She had missed it, the wind in her mane, the feeling of the metal of her wings cooling down with the cold breeze and the ripple of air passing through her feathers. She loved flying. Sadly, it would all end soon. She looked ahead of her to see her cloud home.

It was tall and had one column on each corner. All four of the columns were decorated with swirls and patterns of all sorts. The top of their home had a dome and a fountain that was spewing liquid rainbow. Ratchet had taken the idea from Rainbow Dash, only because her house is so awesome.

Ratchet flew up and landed on the cloud, the plush cloud felt good after being down on earth for so long. Draco landed behind her, but he also fell face first into the cloud. He manged to not fall and regained his balance.

"What? Is it to early for you? It is only 6am!" Ratchet snickered, she knew Draco wasn't a morning type, but Ratchet wasn't either. She just liked waking him up early so she could tease him. Draco replied with a groan as he walked towards the door. He put his free paw up to the door and pushed it open. A happy and hyper Flash trotted up behind him. "Awww, are you really that tired?" Draco lazily nodded as he walked into the main room of their home. It was fairly empty, there was a couch in the middle, a hallway on the other side of the room that led to the Kitchen, Dinning Room and a huge bathroom with a huge tub. Next to the door was a set of stairs that led up to the second floor. On the second floor there was three bedrooms, The Master Bedroom, A Guest Bedroom and Zeus' Bedroom. Also on the second floor was a second Bathroom, not as big as the one on the first floor but it was still large. There were various windows to allow light to shine into the house, so that it wasn't always dark. Draco walked down to the end of the hallway and pushed open a door. Inside the room was a crib made of cloud. The walls were masterfully carved with swirls and twirls. Draco walked up to the crib and laid Zeus down in it before he turned back around and walked into the master bedroom. In this bedroom there was a large bed right in the middle of the room, two windows on each side of the bed.

There were various books scattered around on the floor and other random little messes. Because of the whole law in Equestria about 'If you have a child together, you must wed', there were various wedding pictures on the walls. The two had set up the wedding as quick as possible, and got married three months after Draco had found out that Ratchet was pregnant. Draco let out a soft groan as he plopped down onto the bed, rolling around in the cloud. Once he was comfy, he was attacked by a pair of hooves. Flash had jumped on the bed and wrapped her hooves around his neck, and laid the rest of her body over his back. Draco didn't fight what she was doing and just allowed her to do what she wanted.

Flash grinned as she slid down his back until his wings were right under her hooves. She instantly started to gently run her hooves from the base of his wings to the tips of his primaries. The white pegasus got the result she wanted, his wings instantly flared out and became stiff. Ratchet giggled to herself as she continued to gently run her hooves along his wings.

"You are not gonna let me sleep... Are you?" Draco mumbled into the cloud below him, a hint of irritation in his voice as his wings were toyed with.

"Hehehe... Nope! I see you haven't preened your wings in a while... Maybe I should do it for you." Flash giggled again as she leaned down and started to nibble on the tips of his primary feathers, lightly tugging them back into place. Just as she had preened the first feather, a crying was heard through the cloud walls.

"We aren't gonna get any alone time for a long time, are we?" Ratchet grumbled as she climbed off Draco's back and jumped onto the cloud floor.

"Nope."

First Words

The smell of cooking pancakes drifted up the stairs of the cloud home and into Draco's nose. A smiled spread over his face as he opened his eyes and lazily rolled off of the cloud bed. He pushed the door open and walked down the hallway. He walked up to the stairs and carefully walked down into the living room below. Draco carefully walked past toys that littered the floor in the living room and made his way into the Kitchen. He was greeted by a baby draconequus running up and buzzing his wings, achieving a few inches of flight before he fell back down on the ground of the cloud.

"Hey bud!" Draco grinned as he picked up his son in one paw and rolled onto his back. He started to toss Zeus up in the air a few inches before catching him and doing it again. The colt squealed and giggled as he was thrown up in the air, buzzing is wings with each throw. A pegasus mare walked around the table so she could see the two playing, and she chuckled.

"I see you finally decided to wake up." Ratchet teased as Zeus ran over to her and buzzed his wings. The white pegasus pony smiled and leaned down and nuzzled the baby draconequus. "Pancakes are on the table Draco, I have to go out and do some weather jobs. I might not be home until late, and you need to meet me in Sugar Cube corner at 5. You need to bring Zeus down to Fluttershy, because I know that you also have some weather jobs." Flash walked up and lightly nuzzled Draco's neck before playfully swatting him with her tail. "Love you~" Before Draco could respond Ratchet was already out the window.

Draco picked up Zeus, who was biting down on the leg of the table.

"Come 'ere you." The bigger draonequus grinned as he picked up the foal and sat him at the table. Zeus eyed his pancakes pieces before he put his paw down, grabbed a bit of pancake, then he raised it to his mouth and ate it. "Hm....." Draco looked down at his pancakes and he put one in his mouth, the flavor dancing over his tongue as he thought. "Ah ha! Come on buddy, time for you to go to Fluttershy's!" Draco jumped out of his chair and threw the dishes in the sink. He grabbed Zeus and put him on his neck. "Grab onto my mane." The baby draconequus obeyed and grabbed onto his father's mane. Draco ran out of the kitchen and into the living room. He pushed open the door of their cloud home and swung it shut with his tail as he took off into the air.

Zeus was giggling as he buzzed his blue wings, feeling the wind go through his feathers. His paws gripped Draco's mane tightly as the two flew through the air. Draco did a few smalls tricks and dodged some clouds. The draconequus flew over to a cloud and landed on it. Zeus jumped down onto the cloud and started to buzz his wings in a attempt to fly. He managed to get a few feet off the ground before he fell back down on the cloud, giggling wildly. Draco chuckled to himself.

"Most pegasi your age can't even get a few inches off the ground without help. Who knows, maybe your destiny has to do with flying." Draco said as he ruffled up Zeus' already messy mane and then picked him up and put him back onto his neck. Draco took off into the air again and Zeus started to buzz his wings again as Draco headed down towards the earth. Draco flew over Ponyville and headed to the outskirts of the town where there was a small cottage at the edge of the Everfree Forest. Draco landed on the path and skidded to a stop. Zeus knew what was going on and he glided off his Father's head and landed a few feet away from the door. The baby draconequus walked up to the door and knocked his paw on it a few times before the door was opened by a happy looking butterscotch pegasus. She smiled down at him.

"Oh my.. Hello Zeus!" She said quietly as the baby draconequus jumped up onto her head, taking the pegasus by surprise and she squealed quietly. Draco chuckled as he walked up and took the baby of the mare's head.

"Mornin' Fluttershy. Can you watch Zeus today? I know that you watched him yesterday, but both me and Ratchet are busy today and we really need you to watch him today because all of our other friends are busy and he can't even fly yet so he can't help me with weather jobs and I have to go and do that." The draconequus said all in one breath, leaving Fluttershy giggling.

"It is never a problem watching this little guy. He is a bundle of fun." Fluttershy said softly as Zeus ran up the side of her door, using his wings and claws to climb up the wall.

"Oh! Uh, Thanks a bunch! I dunno what I would do without you Fluttershy. I'll pick him up at the same time, 4'o clock." Draco thanked quickly as he took off into the air, heading off towards Ponyville. Fluttershy smiled as she looked over at Zeus.

"Come on inside now little one, I have a friend for you to meet." Zeus let out a grumble as he hopped off the side of the wall and landed on the ground. He trotted into the cottage and the same smell of woodland creatures drifted into his nostrils as he instantly started to chase a mouse around the carpet, The mace on his tail knocked into a couch and ripped a hole in it, the same place he had made a hole yesterday."Oh... My.. Zeus, come here please! Oh please stop chasing him!" Fluttershy said in a quiet voice as Zeus grabbed the mouse's tail in his paw and lifted it up. The mouse looked back at him with a glare. Zeus giggled wildly and dropped the mouse on the floor as he fell back on the ground in a fit of giggles. The baby draconequus' paws gripped his torso as he rolled around on the floor.

"Okay, be a good girl, okay Spectrum?"

"Good girl."

Zeus turned his head to see a cyan mare with a rainbow mane walk down the stairs followed by a light blue stallion with a dark blue mane. The cyan mare looked down at Zeus, confused as to what he is. She couldn't tell if he was a pony or a draconequus. She looked at his maced tail and then looked over at the hole in Fluttershy's couch.

"So this is the Zeus I have heard so much about?" She inquired as she looked over at Fluttershy.

"Oh yes, he is the one and only."

"The one who ripped up your couch every single time he is here?"

"Oh.. He can't help it Rainbow, he just can't control his tail yet."

"Rainbow, if we don't get a move on, we are gonna be late for our show." The stallion came up from behind as he spoke.

"Yeah! Come on Soarin'! This show is gonna be SO AWESOME!" The rainbow maned mare shouted as she flew out of the cottage, followed by the stallion. "Cya Fluttershy!" Could be heard faintly as a rainbow streak faded from inside of the cottage.

A white filly with a red, orange and yellow mane and a green, blue and purple tail walked down the stairs carefully. She was slightly smaller than Zeus. The filly walked up to Zeus and he walked up to her. Zeus had never seen any other ponies his age, they were all older than him. He was surprised at the sight of this filly, mostly by her mane and tail. He had never seen a pony with such a mane and tail. Well other than that cyan mare that has just flown out. However, Spectrum wasn't all to excited. She had seen many other ponies her age. Zeus grunted as he lifted up a paw, the filly looked quite confused until Zeus pounced on her.

"Zeus! Oh my please be careful!" A worried pegasus said quietly as she saw Zeus jump on Spectrum. Zeus could actually growl unlike other ponies. He was growling away as the filly tried as hard as she could to beat him. The two rolled around as they played, acting like little puppies. After rolling around for a while, the filly planted her hooves right on Zeus' chest. He was still growling and Spectrum just giggled.

Zeus was released and he instantly ran up the stairs, Spectrum quickly followed behind him. The baby draconequus opened his wings and pointed down the steps. He backed up from the steps and got a running start. Right before the stairs he jumped out, and glided down the steps. Zeus turned back around and waited for Spectrum to do the same thing.

"Now Zeus... Not everypony can fly as good as you can. You shouldn't jus-" Fluttershy was interrupted by a white mass of rainbow and wing flying into her, right on her head. Fluttershy squealed while Zeus and Spectrum were having a fit of giggles. Zeus sat up, while still giggling and swung his tail around happily, being careful not to hit Spectrum with his mace. There was a knock at the door and the pegasus walked over to answer it. She opened the door and a pink earth pony came tumbling in, party cannon in hoof.

"Hey Fluttershy!" The pink pony shouted as she trotted away from her party cannon and over towards the two babies. "Whoa! What are you?" She asked as she looked at Zeus.

"Oh.. Hi Pinkie. I didn't know you were coming over today. I am kinda baby sitting... Please be quieter.. You know, if you don't mind." She mumbled softly as Pinkie looked at Zeus.

"Ya know.. He kinda reminds me of Timid Turvy, Fluttershy! Where is she anyway? I haven't seen her in a long time." The pink pony continued as she looked Zeus in the eyes, the baby draonequus just growled playfully and swatted a paw at her muzzle.

"Timid is in Canterlot with Discord... I am not really sure what they are doing up there.. But it scares me sometimes..." Fluttershy said with a whimper as she ears folded back onto her head.

"Don't worry your pretty little head!" Pinkie said as she tapped her hoof on Fluttershy's head."Your auntie Pinkie Pie has gotten it taken care of!"

"I'm a ye- wait, what?"

"Time for FUUUUUNNNN!" Pinkie shouted as she jumped up and ran out the door, followed by the two foals. Zeus caught up to the wild earth pony and bit down on her tail, then used his wings to hover in the air so he didn't get dragged along. Spectrum giggled as she ran up next to Pinkie Pie, a worried Fluttershy quietly yelling from behind.

Everypony looked up to the sky as a brown, grey, blue and red blob quickly flew over the small cottage, followed by a bunch of other pegasi, a few of them bearing artificial wings. The baby draconequus recognized his father in the front of the group, with his mother right behind him.

"Appa! Appa!" Zeus yelled as he jumped off Pinkie's tail and flapped his wings furiously as he slowly made his way up into the sky.

"He kinda reminds me of Pound Cake! That colt was flying when he was a month old! HA!" Pinkie shouted as Zeus flew after the group of flying ponies, in a desperate attempt to get to his parents.

"Oh my! No Zeus you must come back down here right now!" Fluttershy said as she flew up into the air and wrapped her hooves around the foal and floated back down to the ground. The baby sniffled and sighed in defeat as he was dragged back down to the ground and his parents got further and further away.

"Mama!"

"...Zeus...? Draco did you hear that?" Ratchet said as she looked over to Draco, her face filled with concern.

"Yeah.... I did, but he is likely just yelling because he saw us." Draco stated as they continued to fly towards the Everfree, a rouge storm was heading towards the edge of the forest and they had to stop it.

"No.. Draco... He spoke... He called for me... I have to go see him.." The white pegasus said as she turned around and flew down towards the cottage.

"Uh... Uh... Thunderlane! You know where the storm is, lead these ponies to it." The black stallion nodded at the draconequus as he flew down after the white pony.

"Mama! Mama!" The sound flowed through her ears as she rushed down towards the earth. Fluttershy let Zeus go and the foal was slowly making his way towards his mother. Ratchet flew down and grabbed him, wrapping him in her fore hooves.

"He... He spoke! Draco he spoke!" Flash beamed as she looked towards her husband, who was smiling wildly.

"This calls for a.... PAR-TAY!" The pink pony yelled as she ran back towards Ponyville, likely to plan for a party.

"Mama?" Zeus said again as he pointed his paw towards the rouge storm coming from the Everfree forest. Ratchet followed his paw and looked up at the sky. She frowned and turned back to him and smiled.

"Don't worry about it. Mama and Daddy will take care of it, you just gotta stay here with Fluttershy." Ratchet put her son down and turned to Draco. "They need their big, bad, draconequus to keep that storm away from Ponyville~" The white pegasus teased as she flew up into the air, followed by Draco.

"Soaring Spectrum, Zeus, time to come inside." Fluttershy said quietly.

"Spectrum?" A baby draconequus questioned.

Griffin

"Mama! Daddy!" A young voice shouted from his room at 7 o'clock, just when the sun was setting .... Again. With heavy groans the two parents got up and walked into the room that held the wailing voice. "I-I had a bad dream again.. Mama..." The foal sniffled and looked up to his parents.

"Come here Zeus. It's just a dream, no need to worry about it." The white pegasus said softly as the baby ponyequus, as Pinkie Pie had named him at his 2nd birthday, and the name stuck. Zeus sniffled as he walked up to his mom and hugged her tightly as he continued to sniffle.

"Shhhh..... Shhhhh....." Ratchet ran a hoof through her son's mane.

"Just close your eyes, the sun is going down.

You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now.

Come morning light,

You and I will be Safe, and Sound."

Zeus stopped sniffling and smiled as he heard his mother sing.

"I love you Mama..." He smiled up at his mother, who was still embracing him tightly.

"And I love you, Forever. Now, you have have to get up early tomorrow, do you want to sleep in your room or with me and Daddy?" Ratchet held back a chuckle as she could almost hear the pissed off expression Draco had, he knew Zeus wouldn't ever miss a chance to sleep in their huge cloud bed.

"Can I sleep in your bed mommy?" He asks in a innocent voice. The Pegasus nods the three fly upstairs and into their room. Zeus jumped on the bed and snuggled into it.

"Zeus, your birthday is coming up soon. What do you want?" Draco asks as he hovers above the ground, swinging his maced tail around.

"A kitty cat!" He shouts in a high pitched voice. Ratchet looks over at Draco and grins. "I mean... I saw a orange kitty at Fluttershy's and he was cute... He matches my front legs!" Zeus says as he holds his tiger legs up.

"Flash, your birthday is coming up, what do you want?" Draco questions as he floats over. She grins at him for a moment before looking back at Zeus.

"Maybe, just maybe." She says with a smile. "Now sleep. School starts tomorrow."

"Goodnight Mom, Night daddy. I love you both."

"Wake up Zeus!" Shouts a voice from downstairs. The young ponyequus wakes up slowly and makes his way downstairs slowly.

"Do I have to go to school?" He says through a yawn as he sits at the table. He eats the muffin on the table and yawns.

"Yes you do. Now comb your mane, it looks messier than I remember." Ratchet says as she walks over and sits next to Zeus. She puts a comb on the table and he picks it up with his paw and combs his mane. "Good boy. Now grab your saddlebags and lets go to school. Daddy is waiting outside." The two run outside and meet the draconequus before jumping off their cloud home and gliding through the air. Zeus does tricks here and there and fairly soon they reach the Ponyville School.

Zeus lands and looks around at the other ponies, already feeling like he didn't fit in. "Mommy... Can we go home?" He asks as he pokes at the ground with his paw.

"Aw nah... You gotta to go school buddy. Careful not to hit anyone with you tail, okay?" Draco says as he preens his own feathers. "Your mother and I.... Have things to do." Ratchet lightly nudges Draco in the side with her hoof.

"Go on in and chose you seat. We will be here at the end of the day to pick you up." Ratchet lifted up into the air, followed by Draco and they head up into the sky.

Zeus looked around and held his tail between his legs. The other fillies stared at him as he walked down the hallways, most of them trying to get away from him. The ponyequus quickly makes his way into the classroom and sits in the middle of the room. Once he sat own he looked to his side and saw a blue unicorn filly look around for a seat, the only seat being left next to him. She takes a deep breathe and takes her seat next to him. Zeus held out his paw for her hoof and smiled.

"Hi! My name is Zeus what's yours?" One of the colts in the back shouted out. "It touched her!" The blue filly screamed and flailed so she fell out of her seat. He held his ears onto his head and whimpered. "I'm sorry..." The filly glared up at him before she sat back down.

"Don't talk to me... You thing." She relied coldly as she looked forwards just as the teacher walked in.

"Hello everypony! My name is Ms. Cheerliee and I am your teacher. Now, I would like every pony to come up here by order of names, but backwards. So Z's first." She looks at her list and calls out. "Zeus, please come up and introduce yourself." Zeus looked up and walked up in front of the classroom, dragging his tail behind him, making a awful noise. He looked down once he was in front of everyone.

"I'm Zeus... I live in the sky with mum and daddy.... Pinkie Pie calls me a ponyequus...." The blue filly snickered and shouted out, "Ponyequus? She should call you a thing!" The colt spoke up again. "God, he is more hideous than that Lavender lizard thing!"

"Enough!" Cheerliee called out. "Zeus, you may take your seat again." The ponyequus sighed and dragged himself into back into the seat. The few more ponies went up before a certain name caught his attention. "Soaring Spectrum, come up and introduce yourself please." Zeus watched as a white filly with a yellow, orange and red mane with a purple green and blue tail walk up to the front of the room. He smiled at her and she looked right at him and smiled a bit. "Ew! Get your tail away from me!" One of the foals screamed as Zeus started to wag his tail back and forth.

"Sorry..." He mumbled before he looked back down at his desk. The colt behind him tapped his back after a few minutes and handed him a note. Zeus open the note and read it.

'Watch our for mummy. Daddy might eat her.' Zeus shook his head and wrote back. 'Daddy would never hurt mom.' He handed the note back and could hear the colt chuckle. He took the note back. 'You haven't heard the stories? Of how the draconequi would eat ponies late at night in the old days, I think daddy might have gone back to his old ways.' Zeus growled and he threw the note on the ground. "That would never happen." He says with a glare.

"Go check on mommy, you misfit. Mommy can't fly and daddy isn't even a pony. Nice genes you got going on there."

"No!" Zeus growls again.

"What? Isn't that what daddy sounds like when he bites mommy?"

"Don't talk about my parents like that!" He says with a booming growl as he buzzes his wings and drives himself straight into the colts chest, the little tips of his tiny green horns putting two small holes in his skin. "Don't." Zeus lifts up his paw and pulls his toes back to reveal sharp, unused claws. He brings his claws down on the colts face just as Cheerliee pulls him away. "Don't!" Zeus buzzes his wings and hovers above everypony else. "Don't insult my father." He looked over at the colt with the blood dripping wound on his face.

"That's gonna leave a mark." A grinning white filly says as she flies up next to Zeus.

"Spectrum! I missed you so much!" He says as he hugs her in mid air.

"ZEUS! Get down here right now." The teacher says, and Zeus obeys. When he lands he leaves a bloody paw print on the wooden floor. "Now, young colt, why did you lash out on him like that?" She says in a stern voice.

"He was saying that daddy was gonna hurt mommy! He was calling me a thing... I'm a pony like everyone else."

"But you aren't Zeus, and you have to control your strong urges to hurt other things."

"I only wanted to hurt him because he hurt me..."

"Go home Zeus. I have a actual pony I have to take care of."

Zeus looks up at Spectrum who is still hovering in the air before he flies out the window. He found a cloud to rest on and laid down on it. "Maybe here no one will call me a thing... I'm a pony... I'm a pony..." He says as he flutters his eyelids closed.

"Zeus? Zeus?" The ponyequus rolled around on the cloud, trying to get the warm fuzzy paw to leave him alone. He just wanted to be alone. "Zeus buddy, it's daddy."

"Daddy?"

"Yes, I'm here buddy." Zeus didn't open his eyes, but he felt something warm wrap around him.

"Did you hurt mommy?" He asks as he nuzzles closer into his father. Draco doesn't answer for a few moments.

"No...Why would you think I ever would even think of that?"

"The colt at school said you would eat mama... That you would hurt her... They called me a thing daddy... They treated me like a animal... Daddy, am I an animal?"

"No... You are a pony. No matter what they say. You are a pony. You got that Zeus?"

"Yes..."

"I think I have something you might like buddy." Zeus opened his eyes and looked up. Draco handed him a box that had lots of holes in it. Zeus looked up at him with confusion. "Mommy got her birthday present early, so I thought, it's only fair you do too." Zeus opened the box and a orange cat looked up at him.

"A kitty!" Zeus yelled as he picked up the cat and held it close. Draco laughed a little bit.

"His name is Griffin."
