Author's Note

I've really sorry this took so and that it's so short I've just been really busy lately I've got two jobs ATM so I don't have as much free time as of late, anyway I really wanted to focus on Nocturne on this chapter and I hope people really get to like her.


Chapter 8

Twilight happily trotted down the stairs and came to a sudden stop as she saw the living room, the whole room was decorated in streamers and balloons with the message "Happy Birthday Sunrise" written on them, a cake laid perfectly baked and decorated on the table in the middle of the room. "Wow Rainbow did you do all this?" Twilight called from the stairs continuing her descent.

"Oh sorry Twily, but Rainbows not here," A voice said from the kitchen. "She went to got get Nocture for you while you were asleep for a little while. Rainbow didn't want to wake you," A pink mare walked out from the kitchen a covered in cake batter "Oh and up I hope you don't mind, but, uh, Cherry kind of made a little mess with the batter..." Pinkie smiled as a filly covered in batter came out from behind Pinkie. "Do you mind if she takes a quick shower in your bathroom?" Pinkie said with a soft slightly embarrassing grin.

Twilight covered her mouth with her hoof seeing the young foal trying not to laugh, "Oh of course," She giggled a bit "You know where the bathroom is right sweetie?" The filly just nodded and walked up the stairs. "Am I scary or something?" Twilight said with an annoyed look, glancing at the friend.

"You? Scary? Don't be silly, well only when your turn all fiery and your mane and tail turn into fire then you’re really scary but that doesn't happen much," Pinkie looked around the room and smiled at her handy work. "I don't like to toot my own horn, if I did it would definitely be a flugelhorn, but I did a great job!" Pinkie hopped over to Twilight "So do you think Sunrise will be surprised?"

Twilight smiled awkwardly "I-I guess so," Twilight looked away and frowned a bit thinking of the two foals that called her mother. "Hey Pinkie I've been wondering, how did you and Fluttershy have a foal? I can understand me and Rarity but you and Fluttershy don't have magic like me and her."

Pinkie cocked her head to the side, "I never told you that story?" Pinkie smiled "Well then sit down Twilight it's going to be a while,"

"Okay my little ponies! Have a great Weekend!" Cheerilee called out as numerous foals and fillies ran out of the school, eager to get their weekend started. Rainbow yawned and stretched on the cloud looking down at the school yard smiling at the kids running home scanning them for a sign of her daughter. She finally saw Nocture walk out of the school once again by herself. Rainbows smile turned into a frown and an annoyed groan as she slowly flew closer to her daughter. Nocture smiled as she looked up to see Rainbow.

"Mommy!" She yelled jumping up in a hug.

"Hey Squirt," Rainbow returned the hug from the filly. "How was school?"

"It was pretty schoolies," She giggled

"It'll get better,"

"That's what you always say..." The filly groaned attempting to climb on her mothers back.

Rainbow just smirked lowering herself to help "It's not that bad is it?"

The filly shook her head and smiled "Not really Miss Cheerliee really likes me...I just wish I had more friends is all, after Cherry left no pony talks to me. They all said that they didn't want to be friends because I was a princess." The filly sighed and layed her head on the back of Rainbow's mane. "I would throw them in prison if they make me mad...I wouldn't do that.

Rainbow suddenly heard a small voice, "No..." Rainbow looked around and saw a small filly looking at them from behind the school. With a eep she hide back behind the school.

"Who was that?" Rainbow looked back at Nocture.

"huh? Who are you talking about?"

"Oh I see," Rainbow smirked and laughed a little "I think you have more friends than you think you do," Rainbow took off in the sky feeling Nocturne holding on around her neck.

"What do you mean mom?"

"I think you'll find out someday, and I have a feeling it'll be sooner than you think. Now lets go home and get ready for Sunrises party,"

Nocturne just gave her mom and look and rolled her eyes, "Yeah lets go, we need to get the cake so we can have Golden Apple jump out of the cake. Naked." The two mares laughed as they flew back to the library.
