Nothing in life i ever simple, and no one knows that more than little Icecube.

Nothing in life is never simple, and no one knows that more than little Bluejay. Ever since the colt was little over a year old fate has been dishing him the short end of everything, taking his mother away with his siblings, being forgotten, and turning his father into a drunkard. Never getting out or having friends, never knowing the love a parent or a family, so when he runs into Twilight and the gang he is first afriad of what they would really want and waits for them to leave im like his family did. When things finally start to settle down and Icecube starts to trust them, questions follow endlessly through his mind: When is his father going to figure out and when will he wake up from this amazing dream and be plunged back to the real world?

The beginning

Yelling rent thru the still night air causing three young ponies to huddle together in one of the bedrooms. The eldest, a beautiful skyblue filly striped in black, tried to cover as much of her younger two siblings with her wings. The elder of the two, a filly that looked exactly like her older sister without the wings, and the youndest being the only colt of the three, with a deep as night coat and stripped with the same beautiful skyblue as his sisters' coats and his wings tucked close to his body, curled as close to his elder sisters as possiblecowering at each raised voice and crash that happened outside the closed door.

"I'VE HAD IT!" the female raised voice yelled. There were stomped steps coming closer and closer to the closed door, which suddenly was flung open and there stood a powerful, proud mare who let no one step or walk all over her, and eyes as green as a forest in summer, who stomped over toward the three ponies.

"YOU WILL NOT TAKE MY CHILDREN FROM ME!" the male voice yelled back. The door way was suddenly filled with a stallion as black as night with eyes to match, feathers fluffed up showing his anger to everyone who looked at him.

"THEY'RE MY CHILDREN TOO!" the mare screamed back pulling the two fillies to her side and, shoving the stallion out of the doorway, marched towards the front door dragging both now screaming fillies.

"No Mama, don't leave Bluejay," both fillies screamed as they were bodily dragged and pushed out the door and it slamming shut behind them and the stallion leaned against the doorway as tears slowly slid down his cheeks. The silence was broken as a small sniffle came from the room, making the stallions head rear up and looking back saw gray watery eyes staring back at him. He immeadiately hurried into the room and gathered the lone colt near his body as he laid down on the strewn blankets.

"I'm so sorry, little Bluejay, so sorry," the stallion whispered as he felt the little head tucked into his side and water sprinkle onto that area until the colt cried himself to sleep, at which point the stallion gently picked the colt up with his wings and walked out of the room and down the hall, walking thru the doorway to his room and laid him down, following and curling his body around his colts before finally drifting off to sleep.
