Foals of the sun.

A young 8 year old alicorn filly paced outside of a jeweled door which crying and groans of pain could be heard from inside. This filly had a brilliant pink coat with appeared crystal-like every now and again. Her wings were shaped different to other foals and she had four primary feathers not 3. Her wings tips were purple. Her mane was a curled group of three colors. Pink, yellow and purple that shimmered. Her eyes were a bright blue.

Then the cry of foals was heard alerting the filly back to attention. A maid came out, bowed and said.

''Princess Candace, your mother has your newborn siblings.''

''Thank you, Carlada.''

Candace walked slowly and elegantly into the grand room which was glimmered with jewels. In one part of the room was a bed. In others was three cribs, all in different colors. One cyan, one magenta and one red. On the bed was a regal white alicorn with a multi-color mane and kind purple eyes.

The mare was holding three foals. All of the foals were female and all were alicorns. One of the alicorns had a regal cyan coat, multi-colored aka rainbow mane that was messy and red/pink eyes. Her wings were flapping like mad proving she was a flier. Another one was a small red filly with a long, swirly blue mane with closed eyes that were blue.

The last of the foals was a interest to Candace, this foal had a lavender coat, a mane that reminded her of the pictures of her Aunt Luna in colors and in the fact that it was starry all over but this foal had two streaks side by side that were rose pink and a bright purple. Her eyes were the same purple as one of the streaks.

''Morning, mother.'' said Candace with respect and a bow.

''Morning, Candace. You know, your my daughter, you don't need to bow.''

''Ah...Sorry....''

''Wanna meet your sisters before they go?''

''Uh-huh...''

Celestia smiled and showed the first foal, the cyan flier to her oldest. This foal began squirming and was out flying in seconds with a rainbow trail behind her.

''Mother, her name should be Rainbow Dash.'' said Candace with a giggle.

''Your right, I was thinking about naming her Rainbow Shine but Dash works.''

''Show me the other two.''

Celestia smiled again and picked up the sleeping red filly. The filly woke up revealing her azure eyes and tilted her head to stare at her older sister, planting a mental image into her sub-consciousness.

''What's her name?''

''Well, I was thinking of Azure Sky despite she likely be the earth pony of the triplets.''

''That's cute and it fits her mane and eyes.''

Celestia smiled once more and picked up the little alicorn with the flowing, starry mane. This filly had her horn glowing with a ragged grey pony doll in her magic. This doll had pants on.

''Twilight...Since it's twilight outside. And Sparkle because of her sparkling mane and beautiful magic.'' mumbled Candace.

''Yes, a prefect name for a beautiful unicorn...''

Celestia's long regal white horn glowed, the three fillies body's also glowed. One by one they turned into a different pony-type. Rainbow, who was still flying lost her horn. Azure, who was sat on her mother's lap lost both her horn and her wings and Twilight lost her wings yet her magic worked better then most unicorns at her age.

''Candace...Can you take Twilight to a unicorn family please?''

''Sure, mother.''

Candace picked up her baby sister and flow out of the grand room. She searched cantorlot till she remembered a family of unicorns who's son she liked. That it, she would take her to Twilight Velvet and Crescent Moon and their 7 year old colt, Shining Armor. She flow carrying the young 'unicorn' in her hooves.

When she got outside of the grand Night family as it was known. She knocked on the door and left the young 'unicorn' filly on the doorstep and left.

She hovered a good distance in the air, watching as a white unicorn mare with a white and pink streaked, straght mane and lavender eyes walked out, curiously and waited till the mare saw Twilight. Velvet, the mare saw the young foal and picked her up and carried the 'unicorn' in.

Candace smiled and flew back to the castle. When she got there, her mother was up and carrying the cyan baby 'pegasus' Rainbow Dash in her arms.

''Where's Rainy going?'' asked Candace, using a nickname for her newborn sister.

''To a wonderbolt mare named Firefly and her husband Spectra Streak. Firefly is infertile and can't have foals, that's why and plus, this little dasher probably will wanna be in the wonderbolts.''

''I see, where's Azure?''

''Gone to a logcutter and his family. The poor stallion lives just outside the everfree with his wife and 9 year old daughter.''

''I see, but why there?''

''So she can value the magic of the land, as she is a 'earth pony'.''

''Your right. Rainy is going to a pegasus family in Cloudsdale to learn the magic of flight and Twi will be learning the magic of well, magic.''

''Yep, that's why I decided to do this. Your adoptive after the death of your parents, who tried so hard to protect you after the fall of the Empire and that's why, I can't let those foals end up in evil's path. A lot of evil threats the royal family and if they knew about them, then...''

''I know, mother but they'll be fine. I'm sure.''

''I hope, your right...''

Celestia passed her last daughter of a pegasus guard to take to Cloudsdale and to Firefly, before turning back to Candace.

''So where did you put Twilight?''

''With the Night family. Gifted unicorns, who will help with her magical development.''

''Good choice. And maybe, it's because you like their son, Shining Armor?''

''....''

Candace blushed and didn't speak, telling her adoptive mother that she was right.

''Come on, time for dinner.''

Candace smiled and followed her mother to the grand dining room but her thoughts were on her baby sisters and how their upbringings will be. All she could do is hope about meeting them again..
