Fluttermommy and AngelDaddy

The next morning, 7:00...

Scootaloo woke up the next morning when she felt a small pain in her wing. She opened her eyes and she Fluttershy pulling feathers out of Scootaloo's wing. Fluttershy saw Scootaloo awake and stopped.

"Oh, sorry if that hurts", Fluttershy said, "Your wings needed to be preened, so I decided to do it since you were sleeping".

"That's OK, Mommy", Scootaloo said, "I'm kinda used to it anyway". Fluttershy pulled out a few more feathers and then placed the pile in the trash. "Thank you".

"You're welcome, Sweetie", Fluttershy said, pecking Scootaloo on her muzzle, "Umm... I made you some cocoa". Fluttershy placed a mug of cocoa on the coffee table. Scootaloo smiled as she sat up and sipped from the mug.

"Thank you", she said, "I like it".

"I'm glad you do", Fluttershy said. She walked into the kitchen while Scootaloo drank her cocoa and watched some cartoons. After a while of watching, she felt the "pins and needles" feeling in one of her hind legs, making her move it a bit. Scootaloo was surprised and looked down.

"Did I just...?" Scootaloo wiggled her hind legs. She could move. Testing something, Scootaloo put the mug down and carefully stood up. Then, she walked around the couch a few times. Scootaloo was surprised. She could walk again.

"Mommy!", Scootaloo yelled. Fluttershy walked back into the living room.

"Yes, Sweetie?", Fluttershy said.

"I can walk again!", Scootaloo said, running over to Fluttershy and hugging her tight. Fluttershy smiled.

"Oh, that's great, Sweetie!", she said.

"I finally don't need that stupid wheelchair anymore!" Scootaloo felt her diaper become wet and warm. "But... I'm still incontinent".

"That's OK, Sweetie. It's better to be incontinent than to be paralyzed".

"Yeah, I guess".

"Let's get you changed". Fluttershy changed Scootaloo's diaper and put her pajamas back on her.

"I can't believe I can walk again", Scootaloo said.

"Yes", Fluttershy said, "And just in time, too, because today's the day you go to Canterlot".

"Yeah! I need to go get my friends!"

"Hold on, Sweetie. You don't have to rush. Princess Celestia sent a carriage to pick you up around 9:00. Plus, I already told Applejack, Rarity, and Mrs. Spoon to bring them over at 8:00".

"What about Mrs. Hooves?"

"Derpy said Dinky didn't want to go anymore".

"What? Why not?"

"She said Dinky was too embarrassed to leave".

"Embarrassed? For what?"

"That she didn't say".

"Well... can I go see her? Maybe I can make her change her mind".

"Umm... I guess so. Just be careful, OK?" Scootaloo nodded and left the cottage.

~~~~~~~~~~

Once Scootaloo got to Dinky's house, she knocked loudly on the door. A few seconds later, Derpy opened the door, smiling.

"Hi, Scootaloo!", she said. It was a bit difficult to talk to Derpy without making a face, since her eyes were wonky and her voice slurred heavily. Luckily, Scootaloo was able to keep herself from doing so and talked.

"Hey, Mrs. Hooves", Scootaloo said, "Can I go see Dinky?"

"Sure!", Derpy said, "Come in!" Scootaloo walking into the house. "Her room is down the hall, first door on the left. Be careful, my husband is sleeping". Scootaloo nodded and walked down the hall. Once she got to Dinky's room, she knocked on the door.

"Dinky?", Scootaloo said.

"Sc-Scootaloo?", Dinky said from the inside.

"Can I come in?", Scootaloo said. She heard a lock click and the door opened. Dinky was standing in the frame, her eyes red and the fur on her face soaked.

"Yes?", Dinky said, her voice cracked.

"Umm... what's wrong?", Scootaloo asked. Dinky looked up and down the hallway, making sure no one else was around.

"Come in", she said. Scootaloo walked into Dinky's room and Dinky locked the door back. The first thing Scootaloo noticed was that Dinky had a lot of items with Sapphire Shores on them. Posters, cups, pictures, rugs, and even her bed-set was Sapphire Shores themed.

"You sure have a lot of things with Sapphire Shores on them", Scootaloo said.

"Yeah", Dinky said, "She's my favorite singer".

"Mine too. She's so awesome! I know every one of her songs and...!" Scootaloo cleared her throat, knowing she was off-track. "Anyway, why don't you want to go to Canterlot?  Didn't you say you did yesterday?"

"I can't! Diamond Tiara exposed my secret, and now everyone in class knows?"

"Secret? What do you mean?"

"My mom caused the 'Yellow Rain' in Ponyville two weeks ago, and now everypony in class knows!"

"Oh... that's why. I was wondering how that happened, because the rain was really warm and smelled kind of like-"

"I know Scootaloo, because it was".

"What? Eww! I was soaked in it!"

"That isn't helping, Scootaloo".

"Sorry".

"I just can't go, Scootaloo".

"Dinky, did anypony in the class say anything about that?"

"No".

"Does anypony tease you or your mom?"

"No".

"Well, why would the Canterlot Ponies make fun of you?"

"Because..."

"They won't. No one in Canterlot teases me because I can't fly or I have a blank flank, so why would they tease you?"

"I guess they wouldn't".

"There you go. Now will you come?"

"You know it!" Scootaloo smiled.

"Cool! Be by Fluttershy's at 8:00, OK?"

"Do I have to wear anything fancy?"

"No".

"OK. I'll be there".

"See you then, Dinky". Scootaloo walked out of Dinky's room. She went through the kitchen to get to the front door. Before she did, she saw Derpy again, sitting at the table, having a big plate of muffins. "Dinky wants to come to Canterlot with me".

"Alright", Derpy said, "What time does she need to be at Fluttershy's?"

"8:00", Scootaloo said.

"OK!", Derpy said, "Muffin?" She grabbed the plate of muffins and held it out to Scootaloo. Scootaloo smiled and grabbed two chocolate chip muffins.

"Thanks, Mrs. Hooves", she said, instantly eating both muffins in two bites.

"No problem, Scootaloo", Derpy said. Scootaloo walked out of the house and back to Fluttershy's Cottage.

9:00 AM...

Scootaloo, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, Silver Spoon, and Dinky were all at Fluttershy's, waiting for the carriage. Scootaloo and Silver Spoon were playing chess, Applebloom and Sweetie Belle were thinking of ways to crusade for their cutie marks, and Dinky was watching television. All of their luggage was in the corner. They were ready.

Suddenly, they heard the Royal Trumpets sound off. Scootaloo opened the window and saw Celestia's Royal Carriage, two Pegasus Royal Guards connected to it from harnesses, ready to fly. All of the fillies squealed, very excited. Before they walked out, Fluttershy talked to them.

"Alright, Girls", she said, "I know you all are excited. Please be careful and stay out of trouble, OK?"

"OK!", they all said.

"Also, if there are any emergencies, tell me, or any of my friends. Princess Celestia said that you don't have to stay the full two weeks. If you get homesick or just want to go home at anytime, you may". They all nodded. "OK. Have fun!" Everyone but Scootaloo instantly ran out of the cottage. Scootaloo had to say goodbye to her mother first.

"Mommy?", Scootaloo said.

"Yes?", Fluttershy said.

"I love you", Scootaloo said, holding her hooves up to Fluttershy. Fluttershy smiled as she picked up the filly and hugged her tight.

"I love you too, Sweetie", she said, kissing the top of Scootaloo's head, "Have fun. Don't forget to write, OK?"

"I won't", Scootaloo said, nuzzling Fluttershy as she put Scootaloo down.

Scootaloo walked out of the cottage and smiled at her mother one last time before closing the door. Scootaloo then walked into the carriage and sat down next to Silver Spoon on the left side, while Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Dinky sat on the right side. Before  the door was shut, one of the guards came around to the side and talked to the fillies.

"I'm sure you're excited about going to Canterlot", he said, "But please do not stick your hooves or anything else out the windows while riding. The ride will take about five hours. You may eat and sleep in here, but please keep the carriage clean. Understood?" The fillies nodded as the guard shut the door. Soon, the carriage started flying. Scootaloo rested her back against the heavily-cushioned seats and sighed loudly.

"I'm so excited!", Sweetie Belle said, "I've always wanted to meet Princess Celestia!"

"Me too, Sweetie Belle", Applebloom said.

"Rarity was so jealous", Sweetie Belle said.

"I'm sure she was", Scootaloo said, "She always loves going to Canterlot".

"I'm surprised that Rarity didn't make you wear some fancy dress", Silver Spoon said, "Because she might have wanted you to show off her style".

"She wanted me to", Sweetie Belle said, "But I was able to avoid her until I left".

"I wonder if we get to meet Sapphire Shores?", Dinky said, "If we do, I'm asking for so many autographs that I will be able to copy her signature".

"I'm with you, Dinky", Scootaloo said, "I know every one of her songs, and the dances to each song".

"Me too", Silver Spoon said.

"Me three, Scootaloo", Applebloom said. They all looked at Sweetie Belle, waiting for her to finish.

"What?", she said.

"Do you know any of Sapphire Shores' songs?", Dinky asked her. Sweetie Belle chuckled nervously.

"I prefer showtunes", Sweetie Belle said. Dinky exclaimed in disgust.

"You listen to the wrong kind of music, Sweetie Belle", Dinky said.

"Ditto", Silver Spoon said, "Sapphire Shores is the best".

"Yep", Scootaloo said.

"Plus", Applebloom said, "I don't know why ya don't like Sapphire Shores, since yer big sis is her fashion designer".

"Please don't remind me", Sweetie Belle said, "I can still remember that time". She remembered when she ruined Rarity's hat for Sapphire Shores, and saw the future.

"Anyway", Silver Spoon said, "I'm so glad that Diamond Tiara isn't coming. She'd ruin the trip for all of us".

"True dat, Silver Spoon", Scootaloo said, "I still have that check, too. I might use it for us while we're in Canterlot".

"That'd be great, Scootaloo", Applebloom said, "Maybe we could get tickets to Sapphire Shores' concert next Saturday".

"She has a concert next weekend?!", Dinky asked.

"Yeah", Silver Spoon said, "She's performing her signature piece".

"We have to get tickets!", Dinky said.

"I'll see what I can do", Scootaloo said.

After riding in the carriage for two hours, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Dinky had fallen asleep. Silver Spoon, however, was getting sleepy. She took off her glasses and rubbed her eyes.

"Scootaloo?", she said. Scootaloo looked at Silver Spoon, herself half-asleep.

"Yeah?", she said.

"Say no if you want to", Silver Spoon said, "But can I lay on your lap so I can get comfortable?"

"Are you sure?", Scootaloo said, "I'm still incontinent".

"I don't care", Silver Spoon said, "Have you forgotten that I changed your messy diaper when you were at the hospital?"

"Oh... right", Scootaloo said. Silver Spoon smiled as she laid down in Scootaloo's lap, resting her head on the front of her fillyfriend's diaper.

"Thank you, Scootaloo", Silver Spoon said. Scootaloo leaned down and kissed Silver Spoon.

"No problem, Silver Spoon", Scootaloo said, "I love you".

"I love you too", Silver Spoon said, falling asleep. Scootaloo smiled and rested her head on top of Silver Spoon's, falling asleep.

~~~~~~~~~~

Both Scootaloo and Silver Spoon woke up at the same time, seeing the other three fillies staring at them. Both fillies jumped and Silver Spoon quickly sat up.

"Umm...", she said, "That wasn't what it looked like?"

"It looked pretty legit, Silver Spoon", Sweetie Belle said.

"No no", Scootaloo said, "She must have fell into my lap when she was sleeping".

"Really?", Applebloom said, "Then why were ya cuddling her?"

"Uh... uh...", Scootaloo said.

"You don't have to hide it, Scootaloo", Dinky said, "We already know that you and Silver Spoon are dating".

"How do you know already?", Scootaloo said.

"Silver Spoon told us", Dinky said. Scootaloo looked over at her fillyfriend with a near-rage look.

"You told our friends too?!", Scootaloo said. Silver Spoon blushed and looked down.

"Yeah...", Silver Spoon said, "I wouldn't be able to enjoy myself if I didn't".

"But you didn't ask me first!", Scootaloo said, "Just like you didn't ask me when you told Mommy!"

"I'm sorry, Scootaloo", Silver Spoon said. Scootaloo sighed.

"That's alright, Silver Spoon", Scootaloo said, "Just ask me first before you tell anypony else". The two smiled and kissed.

"Eww!", the others joked, trying very hard not to laugh. After their lip-lock, they cuddled and sat back against their seat.

"I really hope we get there soon", Dinky said, "I have to tinkle". She crossed her hind legs, trying to hold it.

"So", Scootaloo said, petting Silver Spoon's mane, "Silver Spoon knows a lot of secrets about Diamond Tiara".

"Really?", Dinky said.

"Yep", Silver Spoon said, "I know every single one".

"Spill it!", the others said. Silver Spoon let go of Scootaloo and began talking.

For the rest of the ride, the fillies talked randomly and enjoyed spending time together. Soon, the carriage came to a stop and Dinky looked out the window. They were right in front of the drawbridge to the Castle.

"We're here!", Dinky said, very excited. Scootaloo had to try everything she could to restrain her excitement, afraid to soil herself. The carriage doors opened and the fillies walked out into the Castle. One look around and they knew they were in paradise. They were about to spend two weeks in the place everyone in Equestria dreams of going into, besides maybe the Crystal Empire. Right when they all got into the Castle, they were greeted by Celestia's Treasurer, Wealthy Coin.

"You must be the fillies Princess Celestia is expecting", he said.

"Yep", Scootaloo said, "I'm Scootaloo".

"Dinky", Dinky said.

"Silver Spoon", Silver Spoon said.

"Applebloom", Applebloom said.

"Sweetie Belle", Sweetie Belle said.

"Well", Wealthy Coin said, "I'm Wealthy Coin, Princess Celestia's Treasurer".

"What's a treasurer?", Dinky asked.

"It one who watches over and maintains money, funds, etc.", Wealthy Coin said, "That's what I do".

"Cool", Dinky said.

"Anyway", Wealthy Coin said, "Princess Celestia is attending court right now and cannot be disturbed. Her highness will be with you in about two hours. In the meantime, she has assigned you four to a bedchamber. Would you like to go see it?" The fillies nodded and Wealthy Coin leaded them to their bedchamber.

Once they got into their bedchamber, they were all surprised. This wasn't an ordinary room. The bed was big enough to hold ten ponies, there was a couch in there as well, right in front of a 90" flat-screen TV, and there was a mini-refrigerator in the corner. Next to the TV was a game console with a pile of video games on top of it, along with four controllers, and on a table in front of the couch were several different board games. Each filly smiled, loving the scenery.

"Whoa!", all fillies said. Wealthy Coin smiled.

"I knew you would like it", he said.

"Are there any rules?", Sweetie Belle asked.

"Only one. After 11:00, you must not make too much noise", Wealthy Coin said.

"OK", Sweetie Belle said. Wealthy Coin smiled again.

"Alright", he said, "If you need anything, there's a phone over there. Dial "6" for Room Service, dial "8" if you want the maids to clean, and dial "2" if you have an emergency".

"What's Room Service?", Applebloom asked.

"It's a line to the kitchen", Wealthy Coin said, "If you have any cravings, tell them what you want, and they'll bring it to you for free".

"That's cool", Scootaloo said, "And we don't have to clean up after ourselves?"

"Only in here", Wealthy Coin said, "Any messes made by you outside this chamber must be cleaned".

"OK", they all said.

"Well", Wealthy Coin said, "Enjoy yourselves. Princess Celestia will be here momentarily". He closed the door, leaving the fillies alone.

All of the fillies were overjoyed and quickly dropped their luggage and went to explore the room. Each one was surprised about different things.

"Some of these games haven't even came out yet!", Silver Spoon said, digging through the games.

"This bed is soft and bouncy!", Scootaloo and Dinky said, jumping on the bed as if it were a trampoline.

"I've never seen a fridge this full", Applebloom said, seeing the refrigerator full to its limit. Sweetie Belle walked into the bathroom and was shocked at the sight. It was very clean, even cleaner than the one at her own home. Also, unlike Rarity's bathroom, it had a double-sink, a much larger bathtub, and a door in front of the toilet for privacy. After exploring, Scootaloo asked the hard question.

"So", she said, "What should we do first?"

"I'm playing some games!", Silver Spoon said, turning on the TV and the console, "Scootaloo?"

"I'll join you", Scootaloo said, plopping onto the couch next to Silver Spoon. Dinky walked into the bathroom to relive herself, and Applebloom and Sweetie Belle figured out ways to find their cutie marks.

Two hours later...

After two hours of having fun in their bedchamber, Princess Celestia finally walked in, smiling.

"Good afternoon, young fillies", she said. Each one bowed in her presence. "Thank you". They nodded and stood. "First things first, you are visiting me as friends, not subjects. You are not required to call me 'Princess', but if it makes you feel better doing so, you may. Now, are there any questions?"

"Do we have to go to bed or get up at a certain time?", Scootaloo asked.

"No", Celestia said, "As long as you do not bother me while I sleep, I do not mind. I go to sleep at midnight, so please don't make as much noise while I sleep, because if I wake up sleepy, I cannot raise the Sun, OK?" The fillies nodded. "Now, you do not have to wake up or go to sleep at a certain time. Heck, you can stay up all night and sleep through the day for all I care, as long as you do not bother me. However, breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served at specific times, and if you are not at the table by then, you will not be served. I cannot have the chefs save a meal for you, so anyone not at the table will not be served, understood?" The fillies nodded again. "Anything else?"

"What if we want to leave the Castle for a bit, as if to play or something?", Dinky asked.

"You may go into the front or back yard anytime you wish", Celestia said, "There's a trampoline and a swimming pool back there as well. However, you are prohibited from leaving the Castle to go anywhere else without letting Luna or myself know first. If anything should happen to you, we would be responsible, and I certainly don't want that to happen".

"Are we allowed to go anywhere in Canterlot?", Sweetie Belle asked.

"Yes, as long as you are back before Luna raises the Moon", Celestia said, "Now, this is important. I can give you a maximum of twenty bits a day if there's something you would like to buy while in Canterlot. However, I cannot give each of you twenty bits. You will have to split it between yourselves, understood?" The fillies nodded.

"Will we be able to spend time with Princess Luna?", Silver Spoon asked, "She's my favorite!" Silver Spoon realized what she said. "Uh... I didn't mean that!"

"It's OK, Young Filly", Celestia said, "I've heard them all before. Some like me better than Luna and vise versa. Anyway, Luna is nocturnal, meaning she sleeps through the day and is awake through the night, so if you want to get to know her a bit better, you will have to stay up. Also, she has her own responsibilities like myself, so she may be a little too busy to talk. She awakens at 8:00 PM, and goes to sleep at 6:00 AM. However, I would wait about an hour before speaking to her. It's like every little thing annoys her in the morning".

"OK", Silver Spoon said.

"Also, she's still having a bit of trouble trying not to speak in the Royal Canterlot Voice, so don't think she's yelling at you intentionally", Celestia said. The fillies nodded. "Anything else?"

"Can we get some snacks from the kitchen whenever we're hungry?", Applebloom asked.

"Yes you may", Celestia said, "As long as they are not reserved for anypony. Reserved snacks will have names on them, so do not touch them". She finished the last bit of her sentence under her breath. "... or my cakes".

"OK", Applebloom said.

"Any more questions?", Celestia asked. The fillies looked at one another and shook their heads. Celestia smiled. "Well, enjoy your stay. If you need me for any reason, I'll be in my chamber".

"Umm... Pr... Celestia?", Scootaloo said, still trying to forget the title.

"Yes, Scootaloo?", Celestia said.

"Can I talk you in alone for a bit?", Scootaloo asked. Celestia smiled.

"You may", she said, walking out of the room, Scootaloo following. "Do we need to go to my chamber?" Scootaloo nodded. Celestia walked Scootaloo to her chamber and walked in, letting Scootaloo in also.

"OK", Scootaloo said, "I can walk again, but I'm still incontinent. I can't really change my own diaper well, so I was wondering if you could..." Scootaloo started to shut down. "Uh... if you could..." Celestia placed her hoof over Scootaloo's mouth before she could finish.

"I know what you're trying to ask", Celestia said, "And yes, I'm willing to change you whenever you need it".

"Really?", Scootaloo said, "Because I'm not really the one that smells like roses whenever I... you know".

"I'll be fine", Celestia said, "Trust me, I changed Luna's diapers when she was a filly, and nothing, not even a skunk, smelled worse than her dirty diapers". Scootaloo giggled.

"Thank you... Celestia", Scootaloo said.

"You're welcome, Scootaloo", Celestia said, giving Scootaloo another small kiss on her cheek, "Now, for you, if you need to be changed at all, you may let me know, even if I'm asleep".

"Are you sure?", Scootaloo asked, "Because you just said-"

"I know what I just said", Celestia said, "But that was a lie. I just said that just so you five wouldn't be too loud at night. I actually don't need to sleep, since I contain immortality, but it helps me feel young".

"How old are you?", Scootaloo said. Celestia looked around, making sure she and Scootaloo were the only ones around.

"I'm 4967 years old", Celestia said.

"Whoa!", Scootaloo said, "But you look like you're only twenty!"

"I get that a lot", Celestia said, "Anyway, do you need a change right now?" Scootaloo checked her diaper, seeing a big yellow hue on the front.

"Umm...", Scootaloo said, feeling a bit uneasy, "I'm... a bit... wet". Celestia smiled.

"Well", she said, "Lay on my carpet so I can change you".

"But...", Scootaloo said, "My spare diapers are in my saddlebag".

"No need", Celestia said, "I have a few left over from when Luna was a foal". Scootaloo just shrugged and laid down on Celestia's carpet. "Now, they're very thick, so if you're not comfortable in them, just tell me, OK?" Scootaloo nodded and closed her eyes, letting Celestia do her work.

Soon, Celestia finished changing Scootaloo. Scootaloo felt the feeling of something a little mushy and the thickness of the new diaper, making her cringe a bit.

"Is it OK?", Celestia asked.

"It feels weird", Scootaloo said.

"Oh, that's because I used a bit extra rash cream", Celestia said, "I don't want you to get a rash or leave any stains in your coat". Scootaloo stood up. Suddenly, the new diaper felt a lot better. It was thick, soft, and fluffy, and she could still walk perfectly.

"It feels great", Scootaloo said, "Thank you... Celestia".

"You're welcome, Scootaloo", Celestia said, "Now, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave my chamber. I have some papers to finish... and some cakes to eat". Scootaloo giggled.

"OK", Scootaloo said. Celestia let Scootaloo out of her bedchamber and Scootaloo walked back into her bedchamber. The other fillies were sitting on the couch, watching TV, and having some ice cream sundaes. Silver Spoon looked back at Scootaloo.

"Hey, Scootaloo", she said, "Cartoon marathon. We saved you a seat and a sundae". Scootaloo smiled.

"I'll be over there", she said, "I need to get something first". She walked over to her saddlebag to get the comforter Fluttershy had packed for her. Once she unzipped her saddlebag, she noticed a rabbit's foot sticking out the bottom, which made her confused. "Since when did I buy a rabbit's foot?" She grabbed it with her teeth, only to have it jerked out of her mouth.

"Hey!", a voice called from the inside, "What's the big idea? I'm trying to sleep here!" Scootaloo opened her saddlebag to see Angel sleeping underneath the comforter.

"Dad?", she said, "Is that you?" Angel sat up.

"Yep", he said.

"Why are you in my saddlebag?", Scootaloo said.

"I wanted to go with you", Angel said, "But you already had your four friends chosen, so I snuck in your saddlebag before you left".

"But what if Mommy notices you're missing?", Scootaloo said.

"I already told Fluttershy", Angel said, "She knows, and I heard everything while I was in there".

"You aren't gonna do anything to make me want to go home, are you?", Scootaloo said.

"Of course I won't", Angel said, "I'll just be eating and sleeping most of the time. You won't even know I'm here".

"Umm... OK", Scootaloo said, "Uh... I was gonna get my blanket out, if you're done with it".

"You go ahead", Angel said, "I'll just sleep in the bed". He hopped up onto the bed and resumed his nap, while Scootaloo grabbed her blanket and sat down on the couch on the end next to Silver Spoon. Dinky gave Scootaloo her sundae and Scootaloo shared her comforter with the other fillies. Luckily, it was big enough.

"So, Scootaloo", Silver Spoon said, "Looks like Angel came with us".

"Yeah", Scootaloo said, "He had to sneak in my saddlebag to get here, though".

"Well", Sweetie Belle said, "Desperate times call for desperate measures".

"That's what I told ya when we went camping", Applebloom said.

"I told you I wasn't going to pee in a bottle", Sweetie Belle said, "That's gross".

"And it would have been grosser if ya would have peed yerself", Applebloom said.

"Anyway", Scootaloo said, instantly changing the subject to prevent losing her appetite, "You don't think he'll try to get us back for pranking him at that sleepover, do you Silver Spoon?"

"I don't think so", Silver Spoon said, "He'll have to stay up pretty late for me, because I'm gonna spend as much time with Princess Luna as I can".

"Plus", Sweetie Belle said, "Angel is the laziest bunny Fluttershy has, so he'll be asleep most of the time".

"Yeah", Scootaloo said, "I was just wondering, because I really don't want to wake up with marker on my face". The other fillies giggled and watched their cartoons.

~~~~~~~~~~

7:00 PM...

The fillies were out in the backyard, swimming in the pool. Well, every filly but Scootaloo. She was afraid to soil herself while swimming. She didn't have any swim diapers, and the last thing she needed was to be banned from Canterlot for accidentally dropping a log in Celestia's pool. Her friends tried to encourage her, but she kept refusing. But, every passing second made her really want to do it.

After sitting on a tanning chair for several minutes watching her friends have fun and swim, Scootaloo decided to go back to their chamber and do something else before peer pressure persuaded her. She walked back into the chamber, grabbed an apple out of the refrigerator, and sat down on the couch. She tried to just sit down and enjoy her snack, but couldn't. The thought of being incontinent was catching up to her. She wasn't able to do everything she wanted because of her inability to control her bodily functions. But luckily for her, before the thought made her sad, Celestia walked in, seeing Scootaloo sitting on the couch. She was carrying a picnic basket on her back, also.

"Scootaloo?", she said. Scootaloo looked at Celestia.

"Yes, Pr... Celestia?", Scootaloo said.

"Why are you in here?", Celestia asked, "Why aren't you outside with your friends?"

"Because they're out there swimming", Scootaloo said, "I don't have any swim diapers, and I don't want to risk dropping one in your pool". Celestia giggled a bit.

"I see", she said, "Well, it's been a while since I've had a picnic with Luna. I was about to have one by myself, but it would be nice for you to come. So?" Scootaloo smiled.

"Sure!", she said, instantly jumping off the couch. Celestia smiled and after letting the other fillies know, she and Scootaloo walked out of the Castle.

After settling in the outfields of Canterlot, Celestia and Scootaloo began eating. They were completely alone, so they could eat without twenty different sets of eyes staring at them. Scootaloo, however, could hardly eat. Having a picnic with Spitfire was one thing, but having a picnic with Celestia was a whole another thing. Just like with Spitfire, Scootaloo took a bite of her sandwich and was ready for some questions.

"Pr... *sigh*.... Celestia?", Scootaloo said, getting a bit annoyed at her failing attempts of skipping Celestia's title.

"Yes?", Celestia said, wiping her muzzle with a napkin.

"There aren't any timberwolves out here, are there?", Scootaloo said. Besides her neglectful past mother, there was nothing Scootaloo was more afraid of than timberwolves.

"Yes", Celestia said, "But they are very lazy. You would have to really aggravate them to get them to come out".

"Well", Scootaloo said, "I won't make that mistake". Celestia chuckled lightly.

"So", Celestia said, "Any more questions while we're out here?" Scootaloo smiled.

"How close were you and Princess Luna before she... you know", Scootaloo said, not wanting to remind Celestia of the "Mare in the Moon" part of her life.

"Very close", Celestia said, "Would you like to know the whole story?"

"Well...", Scootaloo said, "Only if it won't make you sad". Celestia nodded and began telling her story.

~~~~~~~~~~

1500 years ago, 8:00 PM, After the death of the King and Queen...

Celestia sat with her back against Luna's bedchamber door. They had just heard information that their parents had just died in battle, and Luna was very torn up. Celestia tried to calm her down, but was unsuccessful. She could hear Luna's very loud crying through the door. Luna was even wheezing, which indicated she was very upset.

Celestia began to cry at that point. She missed her mother more than Luna, as Luna to her father. She could remember when she learned to control the Sun, and the promise she made to her mother. Luna was supposed to learn how to control the Moon once their parents got back from the battle, but unfortunately, the only thing that returned was a letter from them they wrote and sent right before the battle, along with the horrible news.

Not only that was making Celestia sad. The fact that seeing her sister so upset was really making her sad. Luna wasn't just her sister, she was her best friend, and whenever she was sad, Celestia was sad. Soon, Luna finally stopped crying, but Celestia didn't go in, not wanting to bother her for a bit. Celestia sat for several hours, before she finally heard Luna speak.

"Tia?", Luna said, using Celestia's short name. Celestia cracked the door open a bit.

"Yes, Lu-Lu?", Celestia said, using Luna's pet name.

"I... I can't sleep...", Luna said, "Can you... sleep with me?" Celestia nodded and got into the bed with Luna. Luna cuddled her big sister as tight as she could, weeping softly into her coat. Celestia cuddled Luna back and gave her a small peck on her cheek.

"Are you OK, Lu-Lu?", Celestia said, a few tears still sneaking their way out of her eyes.

"I miss Mommy and Daddy...", Luna said.

"So do I", Celestia said. The two laid in silence for a few minutes, before Luna decided to speak again.

"Tia?", she said, "Umm... now that Daddy's gone... does that mean you control the Moon now?"

"No", Celestia said, "You are going to learn how. I promised Mother I would teach you once you're older if they were to pass on".

"When are you?"

"Tomorrow. You'll need to learn as soon as possible". Luna began to feel a bit better.

"Thank you, Tia".

"You're welcome, Lu-Lu". The two laid in silence some more. Luna fell asleep within minutes, while Celestia looked up at the ceiling, hearing her mother's voice in her head.

"If your father and I happen to pass on before Luna is old enough", Solaria said, "Promise me that you will teach Luna how to control the Moon". Celestia felt another series of tears as she placed her hoof on her chest.

"I promise... Mommy".

Several nights later...

Celestia and Luna were outside again. Luna wasn't catching on raising the Moon as easy as Celestia did raising the Sun. The thought of their fallen parents haunted them every time.

"I don't know if I can do this, Tia", Luna said, "I can't even fly an inch off of the ground".

"I couldn't either, Lu-Lu", Celestia said, cuddling her little sister, "But you'll get used to it, I promise". Luna smiled and buried her face in Celestia's coat. It was easy to cheer up Luna, depending on what the subject was. "Would you like to give it another try?"

Luna nodded and stood up again. She focused her magic on the Moon's light and began trying to fly. It all happened at once. She opened her eyes to see that the Moon was in the sky.

"I... I did it!", she said, very happy. She started flying down and landed on Celestia's back. "Tia! I did it!" Celestia smiled and remembered something.

"You did what?", Celestia said, "I wasn't looking".

"Tia~~~~~!", Luna whined.

"I'm just joking, Lu-Lu", Celestia said, chuckling a bit.

"So you can see the Moon?" Celestia actually saw two Moons.

"Which one? The one in the sky or the one on your flank?"

"What do you mean? I don't have..." Luna looked at her flank, seeing a crescent moon, surrounded in a black pattern. "My... my cutie mark! I finally got my cutie mark! My special talent is controlling the Moon!"

"I proud of you, Lu-Lu", Celestia said, licking her little sister's cheek.

"Thank you, Tia", Luna said, pecking Celestia's cheek, "Umm... I wanna sit out here under the Moon for a while".

"That'd be lovely", Celestia said. The two Alicorn sisters sat underneath the Moon, enjoying the bright light and cuddling together.

"Umm... Tia?", Luna said, "Will I have to control the stars, too?"

"Yes", Celestia said, "But not for a few years. The stars are very hard to control, even Father said so". Luna smiled and cuddled her sister some more. Soon, a bright light flashed around the two and once it faded, they saw that their manes and tails were no longer solid colors. Celestia's was multicolored with four beautiful pastel colors, and Luna's was blue and black. Both had their own sparkles to them and they flowed gloriously.

"What happened to our hair?", Luna asked, "It's so pretty now!"

"I guess since we're the only Alicorns left in Equestira", Celestia said, "Our manes look like Mother's and Father's".

"Aww...", Luna said, staring at Celestia's new mane, "But your's is so much prettier than mine!"

"Well, thank you", Celestia said, "But your's is still pretty, like a princess". Luna giggled.

"I am a princess, and so are you".

"Yes. Now, maybe we should go back in. It's getting late". Luna nodded and went back into the Castle. Before Celestia did, she looked up at the sky again.

"I did it, Mommy", she said, "I taught Luna how to control the Moon. I carried out your final important request for me. I... I kept my promise. I love you". Celestia could could feel her mother's warm coat her soft hug. She could also hear her mother's voice.

"I'm proud of you, Celly", Solaria said, "I knew you could keep your promise, and I love you too". Celestia could feel a soft kiss on her muzzle. "Now, we may be gone, but we'll always be together, no matter what. Please watch over Equestria for us". Celestia smiled, a few tears starting to run down her face.

"I will, Mommy", she said, "I promise. Cross my heart and hope to fly... *sniffle*... to the Sun up in the sky".

500 years later...

Luna stared out the window in their throne room, seeing her beautiful Moon high in the sky. However, she saw several other ponies sleeping and shunning in the night. Luna was very jealous. All the ponies did during the night was sleep. But, during the day, they would play and have fun. It made her sad, as if learning to control was worthless. She learned all she needed, and this is what she gets?

"Luna?", Celestia said, "It's time for the Sun to come out". Luna resumed staring out the window, and had something to say about that.

"No...", she said, "There will be no Sun today". Celestia chuckled a bit.

"Luna, you're always funny", Celestia said, "Now seriously, please lower the Moon".

"And seriously", Luna said, "I said no". Celestia could see that Luna was serious.

"Luna, you don't have a choice", Celestia said, "You're required to lower the Moon after the night is over". Celestia began walking over to Luna.

"Not another step!", Luna commanded, "Did you really expect me to sit idly by while they all basked in your precious light?!" Luna stood up on her throne. "There can only be one Princess in Equestria! And that Princess will be me!"

Suddenly, the room started to crumble, and a cloud of darkness engulfed Luna. Celestia was very scared of what was happening. Soon, the cloud faded, and Luna started laughing evilly. Celestia couldn't believe it. Luna had turned evil. She had a new look, also. Her mane flowed different and she was wearing some kind of special armor. Luna began shooting magic everywhere, completely destroying the room. Celestia flew up to the ceiling, trying to reason with Luna, but Luna shot at her, missing. Celestia knew what Luna wanted at that point.

"Luna!", Celestia said, "I will not fight you! You must lower the Moon! It's your duty!"

"'Luna'?!", Luna said, "I am no longer your pathetic little sister anymore! I am Nightmare Moon! I have but one royal duty now! To destroy you!" She zapped Celestia right in her chest, making her scream in pain. "Yes! That is the sound I like! Now, you will perish before my eyes! Nightmare Moon shot at Celestia again, but Celestia completely dodged it and hid in the secret charms room. She still couldn't believe that Luna had turned evil. She didn't have time to sit there and cry over it, because at that point, Nightmare Moon had destroyed the door to that room, leaving Celestia exposed. Celestia looked at the secret charm that her mother had created for emergencies.

"Fine, Luna", she said, "You leave me no choice but to use these!" She pulled out the charms called "The Elements of Harmony" and used her magic to focus their power into her horn. Nightmare tried to zap Celestia before she could, but the Elements had placed her in a force field. Celestia soon was ready to fire. She fired at Nightmare, engulfing her in a rainbow-like force and sending her to the Moon.

"Nooooooooo!", was the last thing she said before she was imprisoned in the Moon. Celestia looked up at the Moon, seeing Luna's image.

"Why?", she said, "Why, Luna? Why did you make me do that? After all of these years holding your hoof and helping you do the things you wanted to do, this is how you treat me? I'm sorry, Luna, but you're staying up there until you decide to stop acting like this". For several more years, Celestia took control of the Sun and Moon. But every night, she would cry, missing her little sister.

~~~~~~~~~~

Celestia wiped a tear from her cheek with her napkin after telling Scootaloo that story. Scootaloo felt really sorry for Celestia, so she cuddled her. Celestia cuddled her back and began to speak.

"Now you know my deepest secret", she said.

"That must have been hard, Princess Celestia", Scootaloo said, not wanting to skip her title on that one.

"It was, Sweetie", Celestia said, "I'm still very thankful to Twilight and her other friends for freeing Luna from that phase".

"Yeah...", Scootaloo said, "Umm... do you want to go back to the Castle? Maybe we could talk some more there".

"Only if you want to", Celestia said. Scootaloo nodded and the two began walking back. In the process, Scootaloo kicked a rock into the woods next to them and Celestia stepped on a twig. Soon, they both smelt a very foul odor in their path.

"Ugh...", Scootaloo said, holding her muzzle, "What stinks?"

"Do you need to be changed?", Celestia asked Scootaloo.

"No", Scootaloo said, "But, this does smell kind of like..." She sniffed a bit. "...timberwolf breath!" Sure enough, they could see a timberwolf starting to peek out of the trees.

"Scootaloo, run!", Celestia said. Both took off running. However, when Celestia was about to grab Scootaloo and fly, she stepped on a bear trap, trapping her to the ground. Scootaloo instantly saw this.

"Princess Celestia!", Scootaloo said.

"Go!", Celestia said, "I'll be fine". Scootaloo saw the timberwolf slowly creeping up on Celestia. The last thing Scootaloo wanted was to see Celestia mauled right in front of her face. But, Scootaloo didn't want to be mauled either.

"No!", Scootaloo said, "I'm not gonna let you die!" Scootaloo looked at the timberwolf and back at a large rock on the ground. Scootaloo picked up the rock with her teeth and looked at the timberwolf again. She was paralyzed with fear, and couldn't move. But, right when the timberwolf was about to have a bite of delicious pony princess, it was decapitated by the rock, killing it and turning the timber into sawdust. Scootaloo then used the rock to smash the bear trap to pieces, freeing Celestia. Celestia grabbed Scootaloo and hugged her tight.

"Thank you!", Celestia said, "You saved my life!"

"I told you I wasn't going to let you die", Scootaloo said, "You lost Princess Luna once, and you don't need to lose her again". Celestia was blinded by a bright light and shielded her eyes. Once it faded, she saw something on Scootaloo's flank, and it wasn't a diaper.

"Sweetie", she said, "I think you may want to look on your flank". Scootaloo did and saw what looked like a golden shield.

"Is that...?", she said, "My cutie mark?!"

"Yes", Celestia said, "Your special talent is facing your fears. You said you were afraid of timberwolves, and you stood up to it to save me. Your special talent is bravery". Scootaloo was happy and started hopping in circles, chanting "YES!" Celestia giggled and grabbed the filly and placed her on her back. "Let's go back".

"OK", Scootaloo said. Celestia carried Scootaloo back to the Castle.

"By the way", Celestia said, "I want to reward you for saving my life. You may have one wish, and anything you wish for, I will grant for you".

"Anything?", Scootaloo said.

"Well", Celestia said, "I can't kill anyone, I can't end or start true love, and I can't bring anyone back from the dead, so please don't ask". Scootaloo thought about it for a minute, then smiled.

"I wish my friends and I had tickets to Sapphire Shores' concert next weekend!", she said, "With backstage passes!" Celestia smiled.

"Your wish shall be granted".

~~~~~~~~~~

Two weeks later...

Scootaloo and Silver Spoon were on the carriage ride back to Canterlot. Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Dinky had already been dropped off at their houses, and Scootaloo and Silver Spoon were alone, just the way they liked it.

"That concert was awesome!", Scootaloo said, "Sapphire Shores completely blew me away!"

"Yeah!", Silver Spoon said, "And we got to meet her face-to-face! That was even cooler!"

"Yeah!", Scootaloo said.

"Anyway", Silver Spoon said, "You have a nice cutie mark, by the way".

"Thanks", Scootaloo said.

"Hmph... I guess I can't call you Blank Flank now, huh?", Silver Spoon joked.

"Nope!", Scootaloo said. Silver Spoon could smell something foul.

"Umm... Scoots?", she said, "I think you pooped yourself". Scootaloo pressed the back of her diaper, feeling something squish.

"Oh...", she said, "Sorry".

"That's alright", Silver Spoon said, "I'll change you". Silver Spoon changed Scootaloo and threw the soiled diaper in the wastebasket next to the seat.

"Thank you", Scootaloo said.

"No problem, Scootaloo", Silver Spoon said. The carriage stopped in front of Silver Spoon's house. "Well, I'll see you at school on Monday". Silver Spoon gave Scootaloo's cheek a small lick. "I love you".

"I love you too", Scootaloo said, kissing Silver Spoon's muzzle. Silver Spoon walked out of the carriage, closing the door behind her.

"Is there anywhere you would like to stop before we take you home?", one of the guards said. Scootaloo thought about it and decided to get her mother a small gift.

"The gift shop, please", she said.

After picking up a beautiful bouquet of desert roses and a birdie call for Fluttershy, Scootaloo was flown to the cottage and dropped off.

"Thanks for the ride", she told the guards.

"You're welcome, little filly", one of them said, "Enjoy your evening". They flew off.

Scootaloo walked past the gate and used the key under the mat to get into the house. Once she did, she reached into her saddlebag and pulled out her sleeping bunny father and placed him in his bed. After placing her saddlebag in the corner, a very delicious aroma attacked her muzzle and lead her to the kitchen. Scootaloo saw Flutterkind, cooking dinner for herself and Scootaloo. Flutterkind looked at Scootaloo and smiled.

"Well look who's back on her hooves", she said.

"Gramma!", Scootaloo said, running over to Flutterkind. Flutterkind picked up the filly and hugged her. "I missed you!"

"I missed you too, Sweetie", Flutterkind said, giving Scootaloo a small peck on her muzzle, "You're just in time for dinner". Scootaloo noticed that Fluttershy wasn't around.

"Where's Mommy?", Scootaloo said.

"She's at a sleepover with her friends", Flutterkind said, "She wanted me to stay here tonight to keep an eye on you, so it's just me and you tonight".

"OK", Scootaloo said.

"Now, go wash up for dinner", Flutterkind said. Scootaloo nodded and washed her hooves in the kitchen sink. After that, Scootaloo sat down at the table and was served. She smiled as she looked at her dinner. Sunflower soup and hayloaf, along with a few miniature oat-and-honey granola bars.

"Thank you, Gramma", Scootaloo said.

"You're welcome, Sweetie", Flutterkind said. She served herself and sat down in the chair next to Scootaloo.

After dinner, Scootaloo felt very sleepy. Her long day and her dinner getting to her. Flutterkind smiled as the filly tried not to fall asleep.

"Is somepony getting sleepy?", Flutterkind asked, pulling the filly into her lap.

"I don't want to go to sleep", Scootaloo said, "Because I don't want to miss any time with you".

"Don't worry, Sweetie", Flutterkind said, "I'll be here tomorrow, trust me". Scootaloo smiled and buried her face in Flutterkind's coat.

"Umm...", she said, "I think I peed my diaper". Flutterkind checked her diaper.

"Indeed you did", Flutterkind said. She changed Scootaloo's diaper and tucked her in Fluttershy's bed once they went upstairs. "Would you like me to sleep with you?" Scootaloo fluttered her eyes and nodded. Flutterkind got into the bed with Scootaloo and cuddled her.

"Goodnight, Gramma", Scootaloo said, "I love you".

"Goodnight, Sweetie", Flutterkind said, "I love you too".
