Always Calm is Flutter's Momby Night--MistChaptersHello MotherA Mother and Her BabyTime For The TruthHello MotherIt was a peaceful Friday morning at Fluttershy's cottage. She and her animal friends had just finished cleaning up the house and were waiting for Fluttershy's mom, Kind Heart to arrive. "Now Angel Bunny, I want you to be nice to my mother when she shows up. I know how much she's gonna wanna tickle you," Futtershy said. Angel Bunny did his best to keep a strait face. He wouldn't admit it, but he always liked it when Kind Heart visited. "Mr. Honeycomb, you make sure not eat too much at once while she's here. It's very rude to over eat while we have guests," Fluttershy said to her bear friend. Honeycomb roared and nodded in response to let her know he would do his best. "Beaverton Beaver. Don't gnaw on any hardoak branches or you'll get a tooth ache again, and we remember what happened last time, so only maple like my mom said before," She said in a soft tone. Beaverton Beaver put his face in his paws to hide his blush about the hard oak incident. "And everyone, please give my mother a warm welcome," Fluttershy requested. All the animals give her a generous nod and soon there was a knock at the door. Fluttershy smiled and went to open it. There stood Kind Heart. She bared a striking resemblance to her daughter. In fact the only way to tell them apart wa by their manes. Where Fluttershy's was pink, Kind Heart's was Sky Blue. "Hello my little angel, how are you today?" Kind Heart asked in her motherly tone. "I am better know that I get to see you mom. All the animals have been excited to see you. I was glad they weren't too excited," Fluttershy said in her shy tone. "Well, aren't you going to invite me in?" Kind Heart said with a chuckle. "Oh... yes, come on in mom," Fluttershy said with a timid smile. Kind Heart walked into the cottage and saw all the animals looking at her with welcoming smiles. "Hello everyone. Honeycomb, have you lost weight since the last time I saw you?" Kind Heart joked. Honeycomb blushed. "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, you need to put on a few more pounds if you wanna stay warm during your hibernation dear," Kind Heart said motherly. Honeycomb gave a goofy smile at her comment. "And Beaverton Beaver, I hope you have been gnawing on the soft maple trees I recommended," Kind Heart said. Beaverton nodded and showed her a maple branch in his paw. "That's good little one," She said as she petted his fur, making him slap his tail excitedly. "Mr. Honey Badger, you haven't eaten too many juneberries again have you?" Kind Heart asked quizzically. Honey Badger shook his head, remembering when he ate one too many fermented juneberries and couldn't walk or run properly for two days. "That's a good boy," Kind Heart said as she scratched his chin, making him fall on his back so she could rub his belly. Fluttershy smiled as her mother was saying hello to all the critters in the cottage. Sometimes she felt her own mother was more in tune with the animals then she was, and that motherly side of Kind Heart only pointed more towards that case. She remembered how her mother came and congratulated her on her cutie mark, for in many ways it resembled her own. You could say it was like mother like daughter. Even though her father was no longer around, she knew he would be proud of her no matter what. One thing she's knows she inherited from him was her shyness. Her mother was more out going, but her name spoke true of her personality. She would never get into fights with other ponies, unless the occasion called for it, and ever since Fluttershy was born, Kind Heart also had her maternal sense kick in and always wanted to protect her daughter when she could. Some who knew her even even nicknamed her Brave Heart. Once the hellos were through, Kind Heart sat down with her daughter on the couch. "So how have you been dear? Stallions haven't been giving you trouble here have they?" Kind Heart asked. "No, all the stallions in this town are very nice, and the young ones, like Snips and Snails do have a goofy side to them. One stallion is extremely nice, and he is what some would say a big softy, and the mares like him for that, including me. They are much more kind around here then in Cloudsdale or Canterlot," Fluttershy said, shuddering when she remembered a run in with Prince Blue Blood. "Next time I see that stallion, I will give him a peace of my mind," Kind Heart said, knowing who she was thinking about. "Mom, you don't have to do that for me," Fluttershy said. "You're my daughter Flutter's, and no stallion or mare hurts my little girl in any shape or form. That Griffon learned her lesson after I was done with her," Kind Heart said in a defensive tone. "Mom really, you don't need to if you don't want to," Fluttershy said. "I know, I know, your a grown mare. It seems only yesterday you were just the cutest, most devine little foal I ever laid eyes on. Oh how I wish I could have those days back with you. You wouldn't worry about anything and I would take care of all your animal friends for you. I have been thinking a while, and I am gonna settle down here in Ponyville. I've been all over and help other ponies learn how to help other creatures in need of our assistance. It was only two years I have been all over the land, and they all learned so fast. But now it's time to let somepony else take the reigns and help them, and for me to find a place to call home, and what place better then here, close to you," Kind Heart said. "You really mean you're going to stay?" Fluttershy asked in surprise. "Mmhm, I mean it," Kind Heart said. "That's so great mom," Fluttershy said in her shy tone. "Yes it is," Kind Heart Repiled nuzzling her daughter. "We should have a special lunch to celebrate. That is if you want to mom," Fluttershy said. "That's a great idea honey. I'll set the table while you grab the food and drinks sweetie," Kind Heart said. "Okay mom," Fluttershy said. As Kind Heart set the table, Fluttershy went to the fridge to grab the food and drinks she could find. She then noticed she was out of wild apple cider (non-alcoholic). "Oh, mom, it looks like I ran dry of wild apple cider. I'll go get some more," Fluttershy said. "Well, why don't you get some regular cider from the Apple family's farm?" Kind Heart suggested. "Oh, the wild apple trees are on the Apple Farm mom. That's where I was going," Fluttershy said. "Okay, dear, just be careful. I'll wait here with our cute little critter friends, and our big cuddly ones too," Kind Heart said as she petted Honeycomb. Fluttershy was soon off. She made her way to the apple farm and offered to pay Applejack for the cider, but said it was on the house due the fact her mother was in town. Fluttershy made her way to the wild apple tree area of the farm and was met with a challenge. all the apples were either fermented or the tree was picked clean. She searched for a long while until she came upon a tree that had wild apple ripe enough and not fermented. Having been given a filter to take out any imperfections in the juice, Fluttershy picked a few and got to work as she filled her pitcher up with the cider. Soon it was full enough she threw the apples to the side and let the earth reclaim them to grow more. She then made her way back over to where Applejack and thanked her for letting her get what she needed. She soon trotted back to her house, happy to have the cider in hoof. She soon made it back in and said, "I have the cider mom, now we can celebrate." "That's great dear," she said as she finished tickling Angel Bunny. They soon sat down and began eating their lunch. They talked about how Fluttershy should find herself a nice stallion to date and possibly marry someday and how many of the adventures Fluttershy's been on nearly dwarfed Kind Hearts own adventures in comparison. It then came time for the cider and Kind Heart only asked for a small glass. Fluttershy poured her a very small amount, but she gave herself a full glass. "To your permanent stay in Ponyville," Fluttershy said with joy. "Cheers," Kind Heart said. They tapped each other's glass before each taking a drink. "Wow, that cider is good, has a nice kick. I shouldn't drink any more though, go ahead honey," Kind Heart said. Fluttershy nodded and drank the rest of her's as they continued to chat. Once nightfall was close, Fluttershy helped to get all her animal friends down to sleep, and as always, Angel Bunny was the most stubborn. "Come on Angel, you need to get rest so you can feel bright and bushy tailed tomorrow," Fluttershy said. Angel crossed his arms as he sat there with his night cap on. "Come on now, everyone else is sleeping," Fluttershy said. "Let me handle it dear. Angel, you better get some rest or there will be no extra carrots or carrot entrees tomorrow," Kind Heart said. This immediately got Angel to put his head on his pillow and fall asleep. "All a matter of persuasion honey. When they're stubborn, find their weakness," Kind Heart said. "I'll try to remember that one mom," she yawned. "Aww, is my little girl getting tired?" Kind Heart said. "It's been a long day mom, I think we could both use the bed rest, I mean, if you think we should," Fluttershy said. "Yes, quite right sweetie we could use the rest. Would it be alright if I slept with you tonight? You know, have some time to be close to my daughter?" Kind Hear asked. "Oh, um, I don't see why not. I, do feel safer with you close to me, so, okay," Fluttershy said. "Thank you honey," Kind Heart said. The two mare soon got ready for bed and once everything was finish, from brushing teeth to cleaning off their hooves, the two mares climbed into bed. Kind Heart cuddled around her daughter like she did when she was a little filly. "Good night mom," Fluttershy said. "Good night, my little Flutters," Kind Heart said as she nuzzled and kissed her daughter. Soon the two mares were asleep, unaware of what next morning would bring for both of them.

A Mother and Her BabyAs Celestia's morning sun shed light into the peaceful cottage, Kind Heart lifted her head as she awoke. She didn't know why but she felt different. Then she noticed that her daughter was not laying next to her, but something was cuddled by her under the covers. She thought it must be Angel Bunny or one of the other little critters in the house. She stretched herself out and was about to move of the bed until she heard a small little whimper under the covers. That whimper was all too familiar to her but she hadn't heard it since... She lifted the covers to reveal the cutest scene she could ever imagine. Her daughter Fluttershy was sleeping next to her, and she was a cute tiny little foal. At first she thought she was dreaming, but after realizing she had the feeling of being tired, and her eyes were sore as the sun peaked into her line of sight, she knew she was awake. 'how is it that my little girl is my little baby girl again,' Kind Heart thought to herself. As she looked up she looked in a mirror that was sitting across from her and Fluttershy and she saw another sight that amazed her. She was at least twenty years younger, having been a forty three year old mare before hoof, but, unless you were her or her daughter, you could hardly tell, since her family was known for keeping their youth and so many ponies always asked what the secret was. But she knew for a fact she was now younger, not just in looks, but in the way she felt as well. She could honestly say she felt at least twenty years younger. Looking at her daughter, Fluttershy couldn't be any older then two or three months, meaning she wasn't even old enough to eat baby food. Kind Heart was in a state of worry as her daughter slept. She had wanted her baby girl back, but now that she did, she needed a way to provide for her. She had more than enough money to hold them over for a lifetime or two, but it was feeding her daughter she was worrying about. Not only did she think that formula was not a good thing for daughter, she knew, since when she was a baby foal before, Fluttershy could not hold down formula. She needed mother's milk, but Kind Heart wasn't producing any. At least she thought not until she inspected her breast between her rear legs and saw that they had grown a bit, leading her to assume that she was producing milk. She then felt movement from her side and saw that Fluttershy started to stir as she began to wake up. Kind Heart watched as her baby Fluttershy yawned as she opened her cute little eyes. Fluttershy looked up at her mom and was surprised to see her now twice as big as she was, yet she didn't feel afraid, for Kind Heart gave her a maternal smile that always made Fluttershy feel safe. "Mama, what appen?" Fluttershy asked. She was surprised that her speech was now imparred and covered her mouth. Kind Heart only smiled and replied, "This is gonna sound hard to believe sweetie, but you and I have somehow gotten younger, at least twenty years younger. You're my tiny angel again." Kind Heart nuzzled her lovingly. Fluttershy panicked, "I... I a fouw again. Bu, what bout my animaw fwiends? What bout my fwiend fweinds? What bout?..." "Shhh, shh, don't worry honey, we'll figure this out. Maybe one of your freinds can help us figure out how to reverse it, even though I would like to keep my youth, but don't worry. Now, can you think of anything that may have been the cause of this?" Kind Heart asked. Fluttershy shook her head. Kind Heart sighed and pondered for a while, then a thought struck her. "Fluttershy, do you remember that cider you brought home yesterday?" Kind Heart asked her daughter. Fluttershy nodded. "Do you remember what the tree that you took the apples from looked like?" She asked further. "Um, I wemembew da twee wooked white in cowew (color), and de appwes wooked bwue. I tink it was anoder type of wiwd appwes," Fluttershy said. Kind Heart now knew what happened. "Fluttershy, you found 'The Apple Tree of Youth'. That tree was given to the apple family by the princesses long ago, but it was thought to be pure myth, just a story told by the Apple family to entertain children. Some of the Apple members, like Apple Dumpling and Apple Cider claimed to have eaten it's fruit to stay alive to talk about it, but many ponies thought they were joking. Huh, I guess they weren't. Now we're both young again," Kind Heart said. "Are you suwe de Appwe famwy wont be mad Mama?" Fluttershy asked. "Of course not my little angel, it was an honest mistake. The only bad news is, I think the only cure for this is time sweetie. The effects have already stopped, at least the physical ones, so we'll start aging forward again at a proper pace. I don't even think magic can reverse this one dear," Kind Heart said. Fluttershy's ears went back as she started to tear up. "Ssh, it's okay honey. Look at it this way. You get to spend more time with me and I get my baby girl back," Kind Heart said. Kind Heart always had a way with words to make her daughter feel better and Fluttershy nuzzled her, accepting this new reality. Then she felt and heard a rumble in her tummy. "Oh, looks like my baby girl is hungry. But first we need to get you some diapers. We don't want you to have an accident now do we," Kind Heart said as she tickled her daughter. Fluttershy giggled before she said, "Der's some in my cubbowd ovew der. I kept dem when I watch Cake Twins." "Then wait here sweetie," Kind Heart said. Kind Heart soon grabbed the diapers and other supplies that were there and diapered her daughter. "Looks like Mama hasn't lost her touch. Now, how about some nice warm milk honey?" Kind Heart asked in a motherly tone. "Um, whewe?" Fluttershy asked confused. Kind Heart lifted her leg to reveal her breasts and Fluttershy gasped, "Awe, awe you suwe mama?" "I fed you like this before honey, and I would be more than happy to do it again sweetie," Kind Heart said. "Oh, okay mama," Fluttershy said crawling to her breasts. Right before she started to feed, Kind Heart cleared her throat at Angel Bunny and Honey Badger, who were watching the scene the whole time and found the scene too cute, to give them the signal that they needed to leave for this, as she covered her daughter with her wing to give her even more privacy. The animals, who had freaked out before of the sudden transformation while the two were in a coma like state earlier, left and Fluttershy started nursing getting the warm nourishing milk she needed for the next few months. As she nursed, Kind Heart thought about who of Fluttershy's friends to talk to first since they needed to know about this. She figured Twilight would be best choice, for there might be the small chance that she had a way to reverse the effects, even though it seemed highly unlikely. Next would be Applejack and her family so they could be told their stories were proven true. After that it would be which ever one of her daughters friends would be closest to reach to let them know the news. But right now, she and her daughter just needed each other's company as Fluttershy nursed and made cute little whimpers of joy as she enjoyed her meal only a mother could provide. Author's Note End of chapter two. Hope you all liked it. More to come. But I must start on my other stories in link to this one so readers can find out what goes on. Please leave me a positive comment and constructive criticism as always and read on. I'll update when I have the time. Work beckons me a lot, and like some jobs I can't just call in sick nor can I pick the hours I work. Stay tuned for more stories and chapters. You all rock. Time For The TruthIt was now time to let Twilight and her friends know the truth about Fluttershy. Fluttershy pleaded with her to reconsider. She thought she would be the laughing stock of Ponyville and possibly Cloudsdale, remembering all the times she was picked on during flight school. Kind Heart reassured her that nothing bad was going to happen and if any pony was wanting to poke fun at her daughter, they would answer to her. Fluttershy saw no arguement there so she accepted that her mother would defend her. After Fluttershy had her morning breakfast, Kind Heart gently put her tiny daughter into a foal carrier. She entrusted Angel to look after the animals as she made her way into Ponyville. When Kindheart was in the heart of the town, she was greeted with many 'dawws' from ponies watching her carrying her daughter through town as they headed towards Princess Twilight Sparkle's house. None of them even Suspected it was Fluttershy in the foal carrier, even though most of them thought she looked a great deal like her adult self. Once Kind Heart reached the library, she kindly knocked on the door. She was soon greeted by Twilight opening the door. "Oh, Kind Heart, what a surprise. Fluttershy said you would be in town, I just, didn't expect you to come knocking on my doorstep. Is there something I can help you with?" Twilight asked, giving a look of guilt as if she was trying to hide something. "Well, yes, I came to talk to you about my daughter Fluttershy," Kind Heart said. "Fluttershy?! Oh dear, she's not hurt is she?" Twilight asked in a panicked tone. "No, no, she's quite fine actually your highness. Feels like a foal today. We did however have a 'tinny tiny' accident yesterday your majesty," Kind Heart stated as she turned to reveal Fluttershy hiding her face in embarrassment as Twilight gazed upon her. Twilight's mouth gaped open in shock. "Um, Princess Twilight are you okay?" Kind Heart asked. "She... you... but I... how does... uuuuuuuuh," Twilight fainted in front of Kind Heart after seeing the state of her friend. "Princess!" Kind Heart bellowed as she hurried inside and took Twilight to a nearby couch. She soon closed the door and got some cold water and a rag, getting Twilight back to her feet once more. "Sweet Celestia, she' the fourth one this has happened to," Twilight blurted out. "Pardon your highness, the fourth?" Kind Heart inquired tilting her head, before hear the sound of another baby foal crying. "I'll explain in a moment. Could you pardon me for a moment?" Twilight requested, blushing. "Oh, of course dear," Kind Heart replied. Twilight soon made her way up stares as Kind Heart set her little Fluttershy on the couch for the moment. Soon, they heard Twilight trotting back down and saw her carrying a foal that resembled what Spike looked like, but it was a pony foal. "And who might I ask is the little bundle in your care Princess Twilight?" Kind Heart asked. "As hard as it may be to believe, this is Spike, and the reason he looks like this was because a certain dragon was poking around in places he shouldn't have," Twilight said as she gave Spike a serious look. Spike covered his face blushing for having not listened to who he thought was his mother. Twlight explained what happened to Rainbow Dash and Lightning Dust, as well as what happened to Spike and soon heard what happened and even did a age scan to be sure, and she was surprised. "The Apple Tree of Youth is supposed to be pure myth. No trace of it has been found. No documents, no scientific artifacts to it's location. It was just the word of the Apples and other ponies that were the only proof if any. And you know that not many ponies trust solely on just the words of others these days. But you and Fluttershy are living proof it exists. Makes me wonder if some of it's juices might be an ingredients in some of the potions I have. Zecora gave me one that Spike drank, another is one a potion Captain Spitfire had been working on. There might be a connection to what happened to all four. But I'll worry about that later. I told Spitfire that the tests I ran do not have a cure for her potion, nor does the one Zecora loaned me. I don't know if there is a cure for the Apple Tree of Youth, and I have a strong feeling magic will do nothing at this point to reverse it's effects, and will prove only more so if find out that it is one of the ingredients in the potions I have," Twilight said. "Well, I suppose it can't be helped if there is no cure. There must be some other forces at work here that caused this to happen. Something we're not aware of your highness," Kind Heart said. "Mama, we gonna stay wike dis now?" Fluttershy asked. "I'm afraid so my little angel. But don't worry, I'll be here for you through all of it. Princess Twilight, I don't suppose you might be able to send word to Princess Celestia about this. I mean, we need to try every angle, don't you think?" Kind Heart pondered. "I suppose that might help. But I better get this done before the storm arrives. Last time I sent a letter in a strom, the letter intended for my mother went straight to Princess Celestia. We had a good laugh over that one," Twilight said. "I see, well, we better meet up with the Apple family before the storm hits. I know that Fluttershy isn't to fond of the thunder. We bid you a good day Princess Twilight," Kind Heart said as she set Fluttershy back in her foal carrier. "Have a safe journey home Kind Heart," Twilight said before tending to Spike for his afternoon bath. Kind Heart didn't take too long making it to the Apple Farm. Knowing the big storm was fast approaching, she didn't want to keep herself or Fluttershy away from the cottage too long. Soon she came upon the Apples doorstop and knocked on their door. "I'ma commin," Said the voice of Applejack. Soon the door opened to reveal the orange farm pony and she was greeted the Apple way. "Well Howdy there sugarcube. Ya'll must be Flutters' mama Kind Heart. Welcome to Sweet Apple Acres, as ya may a guessed, Ah'm Applejack," Applejack said, and soon she had other ponies line up behind her and she continued, "This here's Apple Bloom, Big Macintosh, and Granny Smith. So, what brings ya'll ta our neck the woods?" "Well..." Kind Heart didn't continue and turned to reveal her daughter. First the family gasped, then in unison said, "Awwwww." "Well, you four took it better then Princess Twilight did," Kind Heart said. "But how did she get all young?" Applejack asked. Kind Heart explained how Fluttershy had chosen the Apple Tree of Youth by accident by pure chance, not even knowing of the tree in the first place. The Apple Family felt a tad guilty for not warning Fluttershy in the first place, course, they themselves had forgotten it had been there in the first place. Fluttershy soon started to feel tired and Kind Heart said it was time for them to make haste for the cottage. Luna had sent in a letter as they were leaving and Applejack found out she was needed in the Crystal Empire. Soon, Kind heart was on the road leading to her daughter's cottage. As she made her way closer she then heard, "Oh, now this is something you don't see everyday. Kind Heart mother of Fluttershy carrying a, well, foal version of Fluttershy. I must say, however did you two manage to pull off such a feat?" Soon Kind Heart soon saw a familiar Draconaquis land in front of her. "Discord, I trust you've been on your best behavior?" Kind Heart said, still a little unnerved by Discords presence even after her daughter said he had changed. "Oh, of course I have. If your implying that I have done anything chaotic, the only thing that comes close is giving a few snob nobles some poetic justice. There's one noble in particular who's face you should have seen once I had my fun," Discord said. "I see," Kind Heart said before pulling Discord by his beard down to her eye level, "cause you know I don't approve wrong doers, and I am sure my daughter has informed you of what will happen if you do, no?" "Oh yes I have been given the run down on her giving me "The Stare". I don't plan on doing anything chaotic, but I do see that her cute little face is going to be having a hard time making the stare now," Discord said rubbing his chin to ease the pain. "Who do you think she inherited it from, or do not remember our last encounter with each other?" Kind Heart pointed out as Flutttershy crossed her hooves tiredly. "Oops, right. I'm sorry, I did forget about that. But that last meeting was a misunderstanding. Anyhow I was on my way to give Fluttershy a quick hello and want to make sure she's be alright before the storm hits. Also, I'm going to investigate why she and her friends have somehow gotten foalified, eep," Discord covered his mouth. "Wait, how did you know about her friends having been turned into foals?" Kind Heart asked, now suspicious. "No it's not what you think," Discord said. "Well?" Kind Heart tapped her hoof with impatience. "I read the author's other stories," Discord mumbled looking down. "I'm sorry what was that, speak up," Kind Heart demanded. "I said that I was sent by Celestia. See, I sensed there was some sort of magical imbalance before hoof and soon a letter came from Celestia's student Princess Twilight, telling Celestia, who in turn, told me about the sudden transformations of her friends. She suspects that there's something else going on behind it all. Now she knows that it couldn't have been me, since she's kept a close eye on me up to this point. Knowing I wasn't the cause, she sent me to investigate, and she said to have me give this to you, Twilight and her friends not foalified yet to let you know, just in case," Discord said. Kind Heart read the note and soon trusted Discords word. "Alright, but I better not hear of any chaotic funny business after the storm is over, or I will find you. You can count on that," Kind Heart said. "After our last bump into each other, I would not doubt you would. But don't worry, only harmless little pranks will be, somewhat, by my doing, but nothing more," Discord said. "Good, now I best get my little angel back to the cottage. She hates thunder, and luckily, the cottage is sound proofed inside and out," Kind Heart said. "Well, I'll not keep you waiting. Do give my regards to Angel Bunny. I left him some extra carrots in the top cupboard for his dessert," Discord said before snapping and disappearing in a flash. "Well, that was kind of him, now lets get you inside sweetie," Kind Heart said. Soon the two of them came in, where the animals came up and bombarded them with hugs and nuzzles. "My, my, you all must have been worried about us. Don't worry. The storms not here just yet, and we're needing to get little Fluttershy here to bed for a nap. Now Honeycomb. Call in all of your friends so none are left out in the storm alright?" Kind Heart requested kindly. Honeycomb nodded. "Angel, be sure that everyone gets a comfy place to sleep and Mr. Honey Badger, make certain everyone pitches in to help board up the windows and doors," Kind Heart Commanded, and Angel and Honey Badger salute her. Soon she makes her way up to the bedroom and sets Fluttershy in the crib her daughter had for when babysitting the Cake Twins. Meanwhile, as Kind Heart ensured that her house was properly made ready for the storm, in Canterlot, Discord had made it back to the palace and after getting permission from the guards to enter, he made his way to the throne room, Where Celestia was finishing up the last of Day Court requests. As Celestia finished everything, she looked to Discord and asked, "So, what seems to be going on with Twilight's friends?" Discord told her what had been happening. Celestia's right eye was twitching after what she had heard. "I can't believe... why would they do that?" She asked to no pony in particular. "Oh, you know how some of these sailors are, they have so much on their mind that they find enjoyment in seeing their favorite ponies become foals in the most bizarre ways your highness," Discord said. "But he can't just play with these powers. I have to stop him before he does more damage," Celestia said. "That's gonna be a little hard Princess, as I told you, he has done things even Twilight knows not of yet. Might I suggest that we let this unfold. When I he strikes again, I can pinpoint his location. I did a little ease dropping on his works before, but he tends to move around a lot, and I wasn't really focused on his magical presence. This next time I will be, and he won't escape this time round. Oh, you might need this," Discord said as he handed her a frying pan. "I don't un-" Celestia was cut of as Discord interrupted, "Just so he won't make a struggle when you find him, I'll be sure to let you drop in on him when he least expects it," Discord said. Author's Note Okay, last chapter for this part of my age regression saga. After many of spankings from Auntie Tia, Mommy, and Grandma Lauren, I finally caved. (Plus, a thank you to Shadowmane PX-41 for pounding some sense into my brain.) I'm gonna have a sore flank and I won't be able to sit straight for a week. Yeah, so this is the reason I had blogged about Discord eves dropping. Turns out even I can't control the Lord of Chaos. I put up barriers to cover my movments, and somehow he was able to find a loop hole somewhere to read my stories. I really need to find the money to upgrade to fifth wall, cause forth wall ain't cutting it. Now all that's left to do is for Kind Heart to tell Spitfire, Pinkie Pie and Rarity of what has happened. Will she be surprised when she see's what happened to Pinkie and Rarity. Tune into "My Little Foals: Friendship is Padded" when... *Muzzle clamped shut with magic* Mmm mmm mmm mmm. Luna: Sorry my little one, but you can't spoil it for your readers. They need to keep guessing. Now lets get you to bed. NM: *Cross my arms, feeling defeated.* Lauren: Be sure to read up on Shadowmane PX-42's story "Foals of Harmony" and follow my Grandson's other stories if you can. Celestia: Or else.
Hello MotherIt was a peaceful Friday morning at Fluttershy's cottage. She and her animal friends had just finished cleaning up the house and were waiting for Fluttershy's mom, Kind Heart to arrive. "Now Angel Bunny, I want you to be nice to my mother when she shows up. I know how much she's gonna wanna tickle you," Futtershy said. Angel Bunny did his best to keep a strait face. He wouldn't admit it, but he always liked it when Kind Heart visited. "Mr. Honeycomb, you make sure not eat too much at once while she's here. It's very rude to over eat while we have guests," Fluttershy said to her bear friend. Honeycomb roared and nodded in response to let her know he would do his best. "Beaverton Beaver. Don't gnaw on any hardoak branches or you'll get a tooth ache again, and we remember what happened last time, so only maple like my mom said before," She said in a soft tone. Beaverton Beaver put his face in his paws to hide his blush about the hard oak incident. "And everyone, please give my mother a warm welcome," Fluttershy requested. All the animals give her a generous nod and soon there was a knock at the door. Fluttershy smiled and went to open it. There stood Kind Heart. She bared a striking resemblance to her daughter. In fact the only way to tell them apart wa by their manes. Where Fluttershy's was pink, Kind Heart's was Sky Blue. "Hello my little angel, how are you today?" Kind Heart asked in her motherly tone. "I am better know that I get to see you mom. All the animals have been excited to see you. I was glad they weren't too excited," Fluttershy said in her shy tone. "Well, aren't you going to invite me in?" Kind Heart said with a chuckle. "Oh... yes, come on in mom," Fluttershy said with a timid smile. Kind Heart walked into the cottage and saw all the animals looking at her with welcoming smiles. "Hello everyone. Honeycomb, have you lost weight since the last time I saw you?" Kind Heart joked. Honeycomb blushed. "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, you need to put on a few more pounds if you wanna stay warm during your hibernation dear," Kind Heart said motherly. Honeycomb gave a goofy smile at her comment. "And Beaverton Beaver, I hope you have been gnawing on the soft maple trees I recommended," Kind Heart said. Beaverton nodded and showed her a maple branch in his paw. "That's good little one," She said as she petted his fur, making him slap his tail excitedly. "Mr. Honey Badger, you haven't eaten too many juneberries again have you?" Kind Heart asked quizzically. Honey Badger shook his head, remembering when he ate one too many fermented juneberries and couldn't walk or run properly for two days. "That's a good boy," Kind Heart said as she scratched his chin, making him fall on his back so she could rub his belly. Fluttershy smiled as her mother was saying hello to all the critters in the cottage. Sometimes she felt her own mother was more in tune with the animals then she was, and that motherly side of Kind Heart only pointed more towards that case. She remembered how her mother came and congratulated her on her cutie mark, for in many ways it resembled her own. You could say it was like mother like daughter. Even though her father was no longer around, she knew he would be proud of her no matter what. One thing she's knows she inherited from him was her shyness. Her mother was more out going, but her name spoke true of her personality. She would never get into fights with other ponies, unless the occasion called for it, and ever since Fluttershy was born, Kind Heart also had her maternal sense kick in and always wanted to protect her daughter when she could. Some who knew her even even nicknamed her Brave Heart. Once the hellos were through, Kind Heart sat down with her daughter on the couch. "So how have you been dear? Stallions haven't been giving you trouble here have they?" Kind Heart asked. "No, all the stallions in this town are very nice, and the young ones, like Snips and Snails do have a goofy side to them. One stallion is extremely nice, and he is what some would say a big softy, and the mares like him for that, including me. They are much more kind around here then in Cloudsdale or Canterlot," Fluttershy said, shuddering when she remembered a run in with Prince Blue Blood. "Next time I see that stallion, I will give him a peace of my mind," Kind Heart said, knowing who she was thinking about. "Mom, you don't have to do that for me," Fluttershy said. "You're my daughter Flutter's, and no stallion or mare hurts my little girl in any shape or form. That Griffon learned her lesson after I was done with her," Kind Heart said in a defensive tone. "Mom really, you don't need to if you don't want to," Fluttershy said. "I know, I know, your a grown mare. It seems only yesterday you were just the cutest, most devine little foal I ever laid eyes on. Oh how I wish I could have those days back with you. You wouldn't worry about anything and I would take care of all your animal friends for you. I have been thinking a while, and I am gonna settle down here in Ponyville. I've been all over and help other ponies learn how to help other creatures in need of our assistance. It was only two years I have been all over the land, and they all learned so fast. But now it's time to let somepony else take the reigns and help them, and for me to find a place to call home, and what place better then here, close to you," Kind Heart said. "You really mean you're going to stay?" Fluttershy asked in surprise. "Mmhm, I mean it," Kind Heart said. "That's so great mom," Fluttershy said in her shy tone. "Yes it is," Kind Heart Repiled nuzzling her daughter. "We should have a special lunch to celebrate. That is if you want to mom," Fluttershy said. "That's a great idea honey. I'll set the table while you grab the food and drinks sweetie," Kind Heart said. "Okay mom," Fluttershy said. As Kind Heart set the table, Fluttershy went to the fridge to grab the food and drinks she could find. She then noticed she was out of wild apple cider (non-alcoholic). "Oh, mom, it looks like I ran dry of wild apple cider. I'll go get some more," Fluttershy said. "Well, why don't you get some regular cider from the Apple family's farm?" Kind Heart suggested. "Oh, the wild apple trees are on the Apple Farm mom. That's where I was going," Fluttershy said. "Okay, dear, just be careful. I'll wait here with our cute little critter friends, and our big cuddly ones too," Kind Heart said as she petted Honeycomb. Fluttershy was soon off. She made her way to the apple farm and offered to pay Applejack for the cider, but said it was on the house due the fact her mother was in town. Fluttershy made her way to the wild apple tree area of the farm and was met with a challenge. all the apples were either fermented or the tree was picked clean. She searched for a long while until she came upon a tree that had wild apple ripe enough and not fermented. Having been given a filter to take out any imperfections in the juice, Fluttershy picked a few and got to work as she filled her pitcher up with the cider. Soon it was full enough she threw the apples to the side and let the earth reclaim them to grow more. She then made her way back over to where Applejack and thanked her for letting her get what she needed. She soon trotted back to her house, happy to have the cider in hoof. She soon made it back in and said, "I have the cider mom, now we can celebrate." "That's great dear," she said as she finished tickling Angel Bunny. They soon sat down and began eating their lunch. They talked about how Fluttershy should find herself a nice stallion to date and possibly marry someday and how many of the adventures Fluttershy's been on nearly dwarfed Kind Hearts own adventures in comparison. It then came time for the cider and Kind Heart only asked for a small glass. Fluttershy poured her a very small amount, but she gave herself a full glass. "To your permanent stay in Ponyville," Fluttershy said with joy. "Cheers," Kind Heart said. They tapped each other's glass before each taking a drink. "Wow, that cider is good, has a nice kick. I shouldn't drink any more though, go ahead honey," Kind Heart said. Fluttershy nodded and drank the rest of her's as they continued to chat. Once nightfall was close, Fluttershy helped to get all her animal friends down to sleep, and as always, Angel Bunny was the most stubborn. "Come on Angel, you need to get rest so you can feel bright and bushy tailed tomorrow," Fluttershy said. Angel crossed his arms as he sat there with his night cap on. "Come on now, everyone else is sleeping," Fluttershy said. "Let me handle it dear. Angel, you better get some rest or there will be no extra carrots or carrot entrees tomorrow," Kind Heart said. This immediately got Angel to put his head on his pillow and fall asleep. "All a matter of persuasion honey. When they're stubborn, find their weakness," Kind Heart said. "I'll try to remember that one mom," she yawned. "Aww, is my little girl getting tired?" Kind Heart said. "It's been a long day mom, I think we could both use the bed rest, I mean, if you think we should," Fluttershy said. "Yes, quite right sweetie we could use the rest. Would it be alright if I slept with you tonight? You know, have some time to be close to my daughter?" Kind Hear asked. "Oh, um, I don't see why not. I, do feel safer with you close to me, so, okay," Fluttershy said. "Thank you honey," Kind Heart said. The two mare soon got ready for bed and once everything was finish, from brushing teeth to cleaning off their hooves, the two mares climbed into bed. Kind Heart cuddled around her daughter like she did when she was a little filly. "Good night mom," Fluttershy said. "Good night, my little Flutters," Kind Heart said as she nuzzled and kissed her daughter. Soon the two mares were asleep, unaware of what next morning would bring for both of them.

A Mother and Her BabyAs Celestia's morning sun shed light into the peaceful cottage, Kind Heart lifted her head as she awoke. She didn't know why but she felt different. Then she noticed that her daughter was not laying next to her, but something was cuddled by her under the covers. She thought it must be Angel Bunny or one of the other little critters in the house. She stretched herself out and was about to move of the bed until she heard a small little whimper under the covers. That whimper was all too familiar to her but she hadn't heard it since... She lifted the covers to reveal the cutest scene she could ever imagine. Her daughter Fluttershy was sleeping next to her, and she was a cute tiny little foal. At first she thought she was dreaming, but after realizing she had the feeling of being tired, and her eyes were sore as the sun peaked into her line of sight, she knew she was awake. 'how is it that my little girl is my little baby girl again,' Kind Heart thought to herself. As she looked up she looked in a mirror that was sitting across from her and Fluttershy and she saw another sight that amazed her. She was at least twenty years younger, having been a forty three year old mare before hoof, but, unless you were her or her daughter, you could hardly tell, since her family was known for keeping their youth and so many ponies always asked what the secret was. But she knew for a fact she was now younger, not just in looks, but in the way she felt as well. She could honestly say she felt at least twenty years younger. Looking at her daughter, Fluttershy couldn't be any older then two or three months, meaning she wasn't even old enough to eat baby food. Kind Heart was in a state of worry as her daughter slept. She had wanted her baby girl back, but now that she did, she needed a way to provide for her. She had more than enough money to hold them over for a lifetime or two, but it was feeding her daughter she was worrying about. Not only did she think that formula was not a good thing for daughter, she knew, since when she was a baby foal before, Fluttershy could not hold down formula. She needed mother's milk, but Kind Heart wasn't producing any. At least she thought not until she inspected her breast between her rear legs and saw that they had grown a bit, leading her to assume that she was producing milk. She then felt movement from her side and saw that Fluttershy started to stir as she began to wake up. Kind Heart watched as her baby Fluttershy yawned as she opened her cute little eyes. Fluttershy looked up at her mom and was surprised to see her now twice as big as she was, yet she didn't feel afraid, for Kind Heart gave her a maternal smile that always made Fluttershy feel safe. "Mama, what appen?" Fluttershy asked. She was surprised that her speech was now imparred and covered her mouth. Kind Heart only smiled and replied, "This is gonna sound hard to believe sweetie, but you and I have somehow gotten younger, at least twenty years younger. You're my tiny angel again." Kind Heart nuzzled her lovingly. Fluttershy panicked, "I... I a fouw again. Bu, what bout my animaw fwiends? What bout my fwiend fweinds? What bout?..." "Shhh, shh, don't worry honey, we'll figure this out. Maybe one of your freinds can help us figure out how to reverse it, even though I would like to keep my youth, but don't worry. Now, can you think of anything that may have been the cause of this?" Kind Heart asked. Fluttershy shook her head. Kind Heart sighed and pondered for a while, then a thought struck her. "Fluttershy, do you remember that cider you brought home yesterday?" Kind Heart asked her daughter. Fluttershy nodded. "Do you remember what the tree that you took the apples from looked like?" She asked further. "Um, I wemembew da twee wooked white in cowew (color), and de appwes wooked bwue. I tink it was anoder type of wiwd appwes," Fluttershy said. Kind Heart now knew what happened. "Fluttershy, you found 'The Apple Tree of Youth'. That tree was given to the apple family by the princesses long ago, but it was thought to be pure myth, just a story told by the Apple family to entertain children. Some of the Apple members, like Apple Dumpling and Apple Cider claimed to have eaten it's fruit to stay alive to talk about it, but many ponies thought they were joking. Huh, I guess they weren't. Now we're both young again," Kind Heart said. "Are you suwe de Appwe famwy wont be mad Mama?" Fluttershy asked. "Of course not my little angel, it was an honest mistake. The only bad news is, I think the only cure for this is time sweetie. The effects have already stopped, at least the physical ones, so we'll start aging forward again at a proper pace. I don't even think magic can reverse this one dear," Kind Heart said. Fluttershy's ears went back as she started to tear up. "Ssh, it's okay honey. Look at it this way. You get to spend more time with me and I get my baby girl back," Kind Heart said. Kind Heart always had a way with words to make her daughter feel better and Fluttershy nuzzled her, accepting this new reality. Then she felt and heard a rumble in her tummy. "Oh, looks like my baby girl is hungry. But first we need to get you some diapers. We don't want you to have an accident now do we," Kind Heart said as she tickled her daughter. Fluttershy giggled before she said, "Der's some in my cubbowd ovew der. I kept dem when I watch Cake Twins." "Then wait here sweetie," Kind Heart said. Kind Heart soon grabbed the diapers and other supplies that were there and diapered her daughter. "Looks like Mama hasn't lost her touch. Now, how about some nice warm milk honey?" Kind Heart asked in a motherly tone. "Um, whewe?" Fluttershy asked confused. Kind Heart lifted her leg to reveal her breasts and Fluttershy gasped, "Awe, awe you suwe mama?" "I fed you like this before honey, and I would be more than happy to do it again sweetie," Kind Heart said. "Oh, okay mama," Fluttershy said crawling to her breasts. Right before she started to feed, Kind Heart cleared her throat at Angel Bunny and Honey Badger, who were watching the scene the whole time and found the scene too cute, to give them the signal that they needed to leave for this, as she covered her daughter with her wing to give her even more privacy. The animals, who had freaked out before of the sudden transformation while the two were in a coma like state earlier, left and Fluttershy started nursing getting the warm nourishing milk she needed for the next few months. As she nursed, Kind Heart thought about who of Fluttershy's friends to talk to first since they needed to know about this. She figured Twilight would be best choice, for there might be the small chance that she had a way to reverse the effects, even though it seemed highly unlikely. Next would be Applejack and her family so they could be told their stories were proven true. After that it would be which ever one of her daughters friends would be closest to reach to let them know the news. But right now, she and her daughter just needed each other's company as Fluttershy nursed and made cute little whimpers of joy as she enjoyed her meal only a mother could provide. Author's Note End of chapter two. Hope you all liked it. More to come. But I must start on my other stories in link to this one so readers can find out what goes on. Please leave me a positive comment and constructive criticism as always and read on. I'll update when I have the time. Work beckons me a lot, and like some jobs I can't just call in sick nor can I pick the hours I work. Stay tuned for more stories and chapters. You all rock.
Time For The TruthIt was now time to let Twilight and her friends know the truth about Fluttershy. Fluttershy pleaded with her to reconsider. She thought she would be the laughing stock of Ponyville and possibly Cloudsdale, remembering all the times she was picked on during flight school. Kind Heart reassured her that nothing bad was going to happen and if any pony was wanting to poke fun at her daughter, they would answer to her. Fluttershy saw no arguement there so she accepted that her mother would defend her. After Fluttershy had her morning breakfast, Kind Heart gently put her tiny daughter into a foal carrier. She entrusted Angel to look after the animals as she made her way into Ponyville. When Kindheart was in the heart of the town, she was greeted with many 'dawws' from ponies watching her carrying her daughter through town as they headed towards Princess Twilight Sparkle's house. None of them even Suspected it was Fluttershy in the foal carrier, even though most of them thought she looked a great deal like her adult self. Once Kind Heart reached the library, she kindly knocked on the door. She was soon greeted by Twilight opening the door. "Oh, Kind Heart, what a surprise. Fluttershy said you would be in town, I just, didn't expect you to come knocking on my doorstep. Is there something I can help you with?" Twilight asked, giving a look of guilt as if she was trying to hide something. "Well, yes, I came to talk to you about my daughter Fluttershy," Kind Heart said. "Fluttershy?! Oh dear, she's not hurt is she?" Twilight asked in a panicked tone. "No, no, she's quite fine actually your highness. Feels like a foal today. We did however have a 'tinny tiny' accident yesterday your majesty," Kind Heart stated as she turned to reveal Fluttershy hiding her face in embarrassment as Twilight gazed upon her. Twilight's mouth gaped open in shock. "Um, Princess Twilight are you okay?" Kind Heart asked. "She... you... but I... how does... uuuuuuuuh," Twilight fainted in front of Kind Heart after seeing the state of her friend. "Princess!" Kind Heart bellowed as she hurried inside and took Twilight to a nearby couch. She soon closed the door and got some cold water and a rag, getting Twilight back to her feet once more. "Sweet Celestia, she' the fourth one this has happened to," Twilight blurted out. "Pardon your highness, the fourth?" Kind Heart inquired tilting her head, before hear the sound of another baby foal crying. "I'll explain in a moment. Could you pardon me for a moment?" Twilight requested, blushing. "Oh, of course dear," Kind Heart replied. Twilight soon made her way up stares as Kind Heart set her little Fluttershy on the couch for the moment. Soon, they heard Twilight trotting back down and saw her carrying a foal that resembled what Spike looked like, but it was a pony foal. "And who might I ask is the little bundle in your care Princess Twilight?" Kind Heart asked. "As hard as it may be to believe, this is Spike, and the reason he looks like this was because a certain dragon was poking around in places he shouldn't have," Twilight said as she gave Spike a serious look. Spike covered his face blushing for having not listened to who he thought was his mother. Twlight explained what happened to Rainbow Dash and Lightning Dust, as well as what happened to Spike and soon heard what happened and even did a age scan to be sure, and she was surprised. "The Apple Tree of Youth is supposed to be pure myth. No trace of it has been found. No documents, no scientific artifacts to it's location. It was just the word of the Apples and other ponies that were the only proof if any. And you know that not many ponies trust solely on just the words of others these days. But you and Fluttershy are living proof it exists. Makes me wonder if some of it's juices might be an ingredients in some of the potions I have. Zecora gave me one that Spike drank, another is one a potion Captain Spitfire had been working on. There might be a connection to what happened to all four. But I'll worry about that later. I told Spitfire that the tests I ran do not have a cure for her potion, nor does the one Zecora loaned me. I don't know if there is a cure for the Apple Tree of Youth, and I have a strong feeling magic will do nothing at this point to reverse it's effects, and will prove only more so if find out that it is one of the ingredients in the potions I have," Twilight said. "Well, I suppose it can't be helped if there is no cure. There must be some other forces at work here that caused this to happen. Something we're not aware of your highness," Kind Heart said. "Mama, we gonna stay wike dis now?" Fluttershy asked. "I'm afraid so my little angel. But don't worry, I'll be here for you through all of it. Princess Twilight, I don't suppose you might be able to send word to Princess Celestia about this. I mean, we need to try every angle, don't you think?" Kind Heart pondered. "I suppose that might help. But I better get this done before the storm arrives. Last time I sent a letter in a strom, the letter intended for my mother went straight to Princess Celestia. We had a good laugh over that one," Twilight said. "I see, well, we better meet up with the Apple family before the storm hits. I know that Fluttershy isn't to fond of the thunder. We bid you a good day Princess Twilight," Kind Heart said as she set Fluttershy back in her foal carrier. "Have a safe journey home Kind Heart," Twilight said before tending to Spike for his afternoon bath. Kind Heart didn't take too long making it to the Apple Farm. Knowing the big storm was fast approaching, she didn't want to keep herself or Fluttershy away from the cottage too long. Soon she came upon the Apples doorstop and knocked on their door. "I'ma commin," Said the voice of Applejack. Soon the door opened to reveal the orange farm pony and she was greeted the Apple way. "Well Howdy there sugarcube. Ya'll must be Flutters' mama Kind Heart. Welcome to Sweet Apple Acres, as ya may a guessed, Ah'm Applejack," Applejack said, and soon she had other ponies line up behind her and she continued, "This here's Apple Bloom, Big Macintosh, and Granny Smith. So, what brings ya'll ta our neck the woods?" "Well..." Kind Heart didn't continue and turned to reveal her daughter. First the family gasped, then in unison said, "Awwwww." "Well, you four took it better then Princess Twilight did," Kind Heart said. "But how did she get all young?" Applejack asked. Kind Heart explained how Fluttershy had chosen the Apple Tree of Youth by accident by pure chance, not even knowing of the tree in the first place. The Apple Family felt a tad guilty for not warning Fluttershy in the first place, course, they themselves had forgotten it had been there in the first place. Fluttershy soon started to feel tired and Kind Heart said it was time for them to make haste for the cottage. Luna had sent in a letter as they were leaving and Applejack found out she was needed in the Crystal Empire. Soon, Kind heart was on the road leading to her daughter's cottage. As she made her way closer she then heard, "Oh, now this is something you don't see everyday. Kind Heart mother of Fluttershy carrying a, well, foal version of Fluttershy. I must say, however did you two manage to pull off such a feat?" Soon Kind Heart soon saw a familiar Draconaquis land in front of her. "Discord, I trust you've been on your best behavior?" Kind Heart said, still a little unnerved by Discords presence even after her daughter said he had changed. "Oh, of course I have. If your implying that I have done anything chaotic, the only thing that comes close is giving a few snob nobles some poetic justice. There's one noble in particular who's face you should have seen once I had my fun," Discord said. "I see," Kind Heart said before pulling Discord by his beard down to her eye level, "cause you know I don't approve wrong doers, and I am sure my daughter has informed you of what will happen if you do, no?" "Oh yes I have been given the run down on her giving me "The Stare". I don't plan on doing anything chaotic, but I do see that her cute little face is going to be having a hard time making the stare now," Discord said rubbing his chin to ease the pain. "Who do you think she inherited it from, or do not remember our last encounter with each other?" Kind Heart pointed out as Flutttershy crossed her hooves tiredly. "Oops, right. I'm sorry, I did forget about that. But that last meeting was a misunderstanding. Anyhow I was on my way to give Fluttershy a quick hello and want to make sure she's be alright before the storm hits. Also, I'm going to investigate why she and her friends have somehow gotten foalified, eep," Discord covered his mouth. "Wait, how did you know about her friends having been turned into foals?" Kind Heart asked, now suspicious. "No it's not what you think," Discord said. "Well?" Kind Heart tapped her hoof with impatience. "I read the author's other stories," Discord mumbled looking down. "I'm sorry what was that, speak up," Kind Heart demanded. "I said that I was sent by Celestia. See, I sensed there was some sort of magical imbalance before hoof and soon a letter came from Celestia's student Princess Twilight, telling Celestia, who in turn, told me about the sudden transformations of her friends. She suspects that there's something else going on behind it all. Now she knows that it couldn't have been me, since she's kept a close eye on me up to this point. Knowing I wasn't the cause, she sent me to investigate, and she said to have me give this to you, Twilight and her friends not foalified yet to let you know, just in case," Discord said. Kind Heart read the note and soon trusted Discords word. "Alright, but I better not hear of any chaotic funny business after the storm is over, or I will find you. You can count on that," Kind Heart said. "After our last bump into each other, I would not doubt you would. But don't worry, only harmless little pranks will be, somewhat, by my doing, but nothing more," Discord said. "Good, now I best get my little angel back to the cottage. She hates thunder, and luckily, the cottage is sound proofed inside and out," Kind Heart said. "Well, I'll not keep you waiting. Do give my regards to Angel Bunny. I left him some extra carrots in the top cupboard for his dessert," Discord said before snapping and disappearing in a flash. "Well, that was kind of him, now lets get you inside sweetie," Kind Heart said. Soon the two of them came in, where the animals came up and bombarded them with hugs and nuzzles. "My, my, you all must have been worried about us. Don't worry. The storms not here just yet, and we're needing to get little Fluttershy here to bed for a nap. Now Honeycomb. Call in all of your friends so none are left out in the storm alright?" Kind Heart requested kindly. Honeycomb nodded. "Angel, be sure that everyone gets a comfy place to sleep and Mr. Honey Badger, make certain everyone pitches in to help board up the windows and doors," Kind Heart Commanded, and Angel and Honey Badger salute her. Soon she makes her way up to the bedroom and sets Fluttershy in the crib her daughter had for when babysitting the Cake Twins. Meanwhile, as Kind Heart ensured that her house was properly made ready for the storm, in Canterlot, Discord had made it back to the palace and after getting permission from the guards to enter, he made his way to the throne room, Where Celestia was finishing up the last of Day Court requests. As Celestia finished everything, she looked to Discord and asked, "So, what seems to be going on with Twilight's friends?" Discord told her what had been happening. Celestia's right eye was twitching after what she had heard. "I can't believe... why would they do that?" She asked to no pony in particular. "Oh, you know how some of these sailors are, they have so much on their mind that they find enjoyment in seeing their favorite ponies become foals in the most bizarre ways your highness," Discord said. "But he can't just play with these powers. I have to stop him before he does more damage," Celestia said. "That's gonna be a little hard Princess, as I told you, he has done things even Twilight knows not of yet. Might I suggest that we let this unfold. When I he strikes again, I can pinpoint his location. I did a little ease dropping on his works before, but he tends to move around a lot, and I wasn't really focused on his magical presence. This next time I will be, and he won't escape this time round. Oh, you might need this," Discord said as he handed her a frying pan. "I don't un-" Celestia was cut of as Discord interrupted, "Just so he won't make a struggle when you find him, I'll be sure to let you drop in on him when he least expects it," Discord said. Author's Note Okay, last chapter for this part of my age regression saga. After many of spankings from Auntie Tia, Mommy, and Grandma Lauren, I finally caved. (Plus, a thank you to Shadowmane PX-41 for pounding some sense into my brain.) I'm gonna have a sore flank and I won't be able to sit straight for a week. Yeah, so this is the reason I had blogged about Discord eves dropping. Turns out even I can't control the Lord of Chaos. I put up barriers to cover my movments, and somehow he was able to find a loop hole somewhere to read my stories. I really need to find the money to upgrade to fifth wall, cause forth wall ain't cutting it. Now all that's left to do is for Kind Heart to tell Spitfire, Pinkie Pie and Rarity of what has happened. Will she be surprised when she see's what happened to Pinkie and Rarity. Tune into "My Little Foals: Friendship is Padded" when... *Muzzle clamped shut with magic* Mmm mmm mmm mmm. Luna: Sorry my little one, but you can't spoil it for your readers. They need to keep guessing. Now lets get you to bed. NM: *Cross my arms, feeling defeated.* Lauren: Be sure to read up on Shadowmane PX-42's story "Foals of Harmony" and follow my Grandson's other stories if you can. Celestia: Or else.
