This story is written in the way of my OC's and how I proceive everything and how it would work if it was a show.

It was a dark and cold by the time Luna was showing her daughter Midnight Luna how to bring forth the night. It was only clear because Luna’s husband Electric Storm had cleared the clouds so Luna could teach their daughter about the night sky. Luna stood focusing her magic to pull the moon over the horizon; Midnight Luna who is only a filly wanted to help. Midnight felt the pull of the moon but couldn't lift it. Her mother was sad as she wanted her daughter to bring for the night like she had for a thousands of years. “Ready Midnight; this time we are going to bring in the stars. I will help at first but then I want you to decorate the night sky with the beautiful stars. I believe you can do it sweetie.” Luna said in nothing more than a whisper. The wind whipped Luna’s dark blue mane around as she than stood to her hoofs and a couple stars appeared. Midnight was focused as if she was decorating her room all over again, than one by one the stars appearing in the night sky, some forming beautiful constellations such as Ryan’s belt, which was one of her favorites because it was so easy. But this wasn't her calling, she didn't get her cutiemark for decorating the night sky. Little did she know this was never going to be her calling.

“Mommy one day I am going to grow up to be like you than make a constellation called Alicorn for all of us alicorns who look up at the night sky.” Midnight would say as she smiled. Luna chuckled as she looked down at her young filly.

“Whatever you say my silly filly.” Luna said. Midnight jumped all the way back to her room in the castle, she flew around to wear out her energy some than curled into her bed and her mother tucked her in and kissed her goodnight.

“Goodnight my little filly. I love you.” Luna started to sing her the lullaby she did every night when putting Midnight to sleep.. “Moonlight… Star light… Darkness falls, from the shadows owls call. All shall be yours one day, 'till than sleep. Dream the night away, lalu, lalu, crickets chirping in the vale, lalu, lalu hear the song of the nightingale, all of this shall be yours soon, 'till than sleep, we shall raise the moon.” Luna sang softly to the young filly, and then left when she fell asleep.

Chapter One

It was a long morning in the castle as everyone sat around the table eating their breakfast, Luna sitting at one end with Midnight and Electric Storm, her tummy plump with a new baby that they are going to name Ember. At the other end of the table was Celestia sitting all alone as usual, she never thought to marry any pony, she was always caught up in her royal duties to have time to go out and meet a nice stallion, the funny part about that though is she did marry, just not a pony. She married her childhood friend Discord who recently became good again. The only friends she has are Discord, her sister Luna, brother-in-law Electric, niece Midnight, Princess Cadence and her faithful student and now alicorn, Princess Twilight Sparkle. Celestia doesn’t always go to visit Discord but he does stay to pop in every now and again to bring her flowers. Celestia is currently pregnant as well having a small baby bump of her own. Just as Midnight, who is about 17 now, got up Discord comes flying into the room and lands next to Celestia with a bouquet of a dozen rare flowers. Midnight used her magic to pick up the plates of those who are done and take them into the kitchen for the waiter stallion to clean them. She dropped them into the sink and walked out. “Mom, I have a date later, I need something to wear. Can I wear your pink dress?” Midnight asked as her mom got up with Electrics help.  They started off toward the garden.

“Sure honey, you know where it is.”  Luna yelled over her shoulder as then was out in the garden playing around with Electric as if the two were still young. Midnight took a shower than walked into her mother’s room. She awed at how beautiful it looks since she last saw it. She walked into the closet and pulled out a small pink box than contained the dress. She set the box onto her back and walked into her room. She dried herself off than braided her long hair that she felt was to long as all the alicorns had long hair. She grabbed a pair of scissors and cut if off so it was short, she dropped the braid into the trash and marveled at her beautiful short brown hair; she took out her makeup and put light blue, almost the color of her tipped wings and dabbled it on her eyelids and smiled in the mirror, she used her magic to help her into her mother’s dress which fit her perfectly when she was a young mare but now it fits Midnight to a T.  Midnight couldn't wait to see her Native-Equestria mare she knew and loved again; the mysterious mares name? Native Feather. She lived with the buffalo tribe most of her life than got brought into Appaloosa by some nice stallion named Braeburn who was in love with Little Strongheart from Feather’s tribe but Feather was also in love with her but as their two worlds grew apart they themselves grew apart than Little Strongheart married Braeburn, and at the wedding Feather ran, and ran as far as she could. She collapsed in the gates of the Castle just as Midnight was making her way out to raise the moon in the garden as she always did. She stopped and helped the young mare up. “Hello, who are you?” She asked in a hushed tone as the mare wobbled back and forth trying to stay stable on her feet, she was the same age as Midnight, 15 years old.

“Names Native Feather  .” She said just as she collapsed but Midnight caught her with her magic. Since their meeting Native moved into Ponyville just on the out skirts and made many friends.

Midnight was shaken out of her memories when there was a loud scream from outside; she recognized it as her mothers. She jumped out of her window, opening her wings and flying to her dear mother who was lying bleeding on the ground. “Midnight teleport us to Crystal Empire hurry your sister is coming!” Luna groan out in pain as they teleported to Crystal Empires hospital, Midnight lifted her into a bed and ran her into an empty room. Midnight ran out screaming for a doctor. Doctor Pepper walked over.

“What can I help you with Princess?” Doctor Pepper said. Luna screamed from inside of the room, Doctor Pepper ran in as Midnight teleported to Native Feather’s house in Ponyville and walked to her, grabbed her hoof and teleported back to the hospital room where the head of the baby is already out. Luna was crying and screaming for mercy. “Breathe and push,” the doctor repeated over and over until Luna had pushed out the small purple alicorn. Doctor Pepper cleaned the small filly and handed her in a dark pink blanket. “What will you like to name her?”

“ Ember Crystal .” Electric Storm said with a smile, he leaned down and kissed his new princess’s head.

“Beautiful.” Midnight, Doctor Pepper and Native Feather all said together.

Chapter Two

Soon after Ember arrival to the Castle all the guards were on edge looking around more since a new baby alicorn was just brought into the world. Luna tells Midnight stories of how when she was little that they use to do the same thing, they are frantic for a couple weeks the they are at ease a bit more. “Goodnight my little filly. I love you.” Luna started to sing her the lullaby she did every night when putting Midnight to sleep.. “Moonlight... Star light... Darkness falls, from the shadows owls call. All shall be yours one day, 'till than sleep. Dream the night away, lalu, lalu, crickets chirping in the vale, lalu, lalu hear the song of the nightingale, all of this shall be yours soon, 'till than sleep, we shall raise the moon.” Luna sang softly to her daughter Midnight, and then left when she fell asleep. Luna than wondered the halls until  she bumped into Celestia who's stomach was much bigger than she usually was. "Uh sister? What happen to your stomach?" Luna questioned as she stopped in her tracks.

"I used a little magic to make me due tomorrow! I'm so excited!" Celestia practically squealed with joy.

"I'm happy for you. Did you also use magic to know the gender?" Luna asked with an eyebrow raised.

"Why yes I did. It's a girl." Celestia flapped her wings and flew off to her room where Discord a waited her. Luna at this point went up to her bedroom and laid in her bed just thinking about how odd her sister was acting just now. Luna soon fell fast asleep and tried not to think about it anymore.

Celestia woke up earlier to raise the sun but as she did her water broke. She ran around the castle waking everypony up, than they all went to the hospital. When they arrived Doctor Pepper, who bounces back and forth from the Princesses hospitals they go to, welcomed Celestia into the hospital and quickly found her a room. Celestia laid in pain for what seemed like hours before she was ready to push. Ember and Midnight sat out in the waiting area unable to come in because they weren't close enough of family according to about 20 nurses. Doctor Pepper spoke in a hushed tone. "Princess Celestia just push and everything will be okay." Celestia did as she was told and pushed as hard as she could. About 20 pushes later a small alicorn baby poped out. Doctor Pepper washed and cleaned the baby and wrapped her in a pink blanket and handed her to Celestia.

"I will name her Peachie Sunset ." Celestia announced without a second thought. Doctor Pepper left than returned with a birth cerficate and smiled.

"Congratulations you two on your new babies." Doctor Pepper said than left.
