You sat silently your eyes drooping slightly in your car seat your head tilted to side as your parents we're taking you to visit your grandmother's for the weekend. Everything swell and perfect you had the perfect child hood with your parents, they never fought or yelled they loved each other and loved you more. Their little prince you were their universe and they'd do everything for you.

Of course that meant you being constantly babied by your mother.

Your mother had short blond hair with a white pin to the right side of her bangs. She was small and petite she looked young almost twenty-five, she wore a black blouse with a pair of studded blue jeans.

Your father on the other hand had a buzz cut styled hair a distinct brown was his style of hair, he always wore plaided long sleeve shirts, he had a bit of a five o'clock shadow going on never really having a full on bread. He looked like he was a mountain man with his attire which consisted of blue jeans that had no distinct styles on them, he wore a pair of brown boots and always called you Sport.

"Baby, please you worry too much about Dante." Your father said to your mother.

"I know sweetheart but I never thought he'd grow up so fast look at him." Your mother insisted your father chuckled and kept his eyes on the road.

"Don't worry Dante we're almost to grandma's." Your mother told you as she saw you become sleepier and sleepier.

"Damn this snow." Your father commented as the windshield began to be piled on with more and more snow.

"Honey what's wrong?"

"The damn snow that's what's wrong can't see well."

"Why don't we stop."

"We can't it's too much of a risk." Just then your father tried turning the steering wheel only for it to lock up.

"Shit! Hold on Juliet!" Your father shouted.

"What's wrong Chris!?" A sudden smash was heard and you saw nothing else.

Franklin...

Approaching the wreckage Franklin peered into the car. Seeing two dead bodies a man and women.

"A man and a woman presumably in their late twenties married." He said to a small voice recording as he pulled out the woman's bloodied body and man's battered and broken body both near death. Nothing could save them the hospitals were far away from the country and with heavy snow fall nothing could be done.

Franklin reached into his pocket as he removed two packets of salts and placed both on the tongues of the deceased.

In mortem ego sum est lux bringer et vos mea oves.

A bright white flash happened as Franklin blocked his eyes from the bodies. Soon he heard to loud gasps of air both coughing violently.

"Good you two are up." Franklin looked towards the bodies to see ghostly images of the two dead couple as they rose from the ground.

"W-what happened?" Juliet asked

"You two died in the car crash unfortunately there's nothing I can do to place you back into your bodies as your spirits left the vessel they now may take up an opportunity for rebirth."

"And Dante? What happened to our son?" Chris asked

"It's never easy explaining this to parents. Your son didn't die in the car crash."

"Thank goodness." Both parents said with tears in their eyes.

"But unfortunately he will die from the cold and harsh environment."

"What?! Dante!" Both parents ran to their car and looked through the backseat of the car to see you, your eyes closed as you began to cry for your parents. Both your parents struggled to opened the door only for their hands to pass through any solid matter.

You began to cry your cries hurt your parents as they were there to protect you, to love you and yet they were helpless and couldn't do anything.

"Please help him!" Your mother pleaded as she looked towards Franklin.

Franklin looked at your mother both with great sadness and sorrow.

"I can let him live, but that means sacrificing your chance at rebirth and that also means you are to walk amongst the living with no rest, but your son will be given a second chance."

"H-how can you do that?" She asked

"I can be your son's familiar his loyal friend and his life will be saved, I will also watch over him as he grows that is if you give me permission." Both parents smiled and nodded

"Very well he will live, but his new life will be in a world I choose and I promise he will learn virtues he can use as a grown up." Franklin walked over to the wreckage and proceed to remove you from the car. Carrying you he placed you gently on the snowy ground. Franklin smiled and brushed your short hair and began to recite a few words.

Ut our vincula crescat close vos et ego sunt amicis omnes est modo ut est extremumque et donec quod die venit I sum tua familiar et vos mea socius. Your cries were calmed down as you smiled giggling at Franklin as he simply smiled.

"Anything you say goes my little friend I promise you'll live in a world where you'll be loved and where your new mommy will care for you just like your old mommy." You giggled as he tickled your tummy.

"Is there anything you wanna say to Dante before I leave?" Your mother approached you and gave you a kiss on your forehead.

"Sweetie. I hope you become a great man and I hope whoever finds you gives you the home you deserve." Your mother choked up as tears began to roll down her cheeks.

"Anything you wanna say to him sir?" Franklin asked

Your father approached you and brushed your hair.

"Be a good kid to your new mommy sport." Franklin nodded and stepped through with your parents right behind.

Equestria...

The world shifted as they were now in maze like area, both parents felt slightly eased as they saw Franklin wrap you in a blanket leaving a silver pocket watch near you pointing towards an open window.

"Let's go I need to finish a few things before I assign you to watch over Dante at a distance."

"What do you mean by that?" Your mother asked

"What I mean is that I can stick close to Dante as he is my friend, but you two need to keep your distance from him if he's ever going to love his new guardian I promise when he's older you'll be free to see him, but until then you two keep your distance." The news sadden both parents but the prospect of talking to their son once more gave them hope of seeing their son once more.

"Thank you." Both said in unison.

Celestia...

Unfortunately Princess you can't have children seems that you're barren we've tried and tried but there's nothing more we can do. Those words stung Celestia more then anything the unfortunate circumstances of her body never able producing children hurt her.

Celestia sat in her room sadden with circumstances her pet Phoenix trying to lift her spirits as she constantly flew near the sadden mare.

Tears ran down her cheeks as Philomena nuzzles her master.

"I just want someone to cuddle while he or she sleeps. Someone I can care for with my life and yet that can't be a reality." Celestia said sobbing into her arms.

Philomena looked at her master and out the window she exited her master's room and towards the beautiful nighttime land.

She circled around a flower patch trying to find a flower she can give to her master to at least cheer her up. Most of the flowers around weren't the ones she was looking for they weren't special enough.

Flying towards the center of the maze she spotted a rather bright and shiny object. Curiosity got the better of her as she descended to the spot and approached the mysterious object, getting closer to the shiny object she heard coos and giggles tilting her head to the side, she slowly removed the blankets revealing you just laying there a shiny pocket watch on hand and you sucking on your thumb.

You let out a soft giggle and began to reach for Philomena who moved every time you almost caught her. You were having fun playing with Philomena her bright feathers and bright colors made you more attracted to her.

Philomena removed a feather from her wing and placed it near you, you simply grabbed it swung it wildly unknown to you that Philomena had flew away to alert her master.

A few minutes later...

"Philomena why did you being me out here?" Celestia asked once more her bloodshot eyes apparent as her constant crying was obvious.

Philomena only continued flying entering the mazes area, Celestia decided to teleport to the center of the maze.

Philomena smiled as she directed her master to you, the bright and shining glare of the pocket watch going into her eye as approached you.

She crouched down to the small figure and slowly removed the blanket from your body. You looked into her eyes and began to giggle and coo reaching up towards her with your tiny arms.

"Hello!? Did anyone leave a child?!" She asked to no avail as nothing responded

"What's your name little foal?" She asked with curiosity.

You only looked at her with intrigue was she your mother? Was she your protector?

All you knew was she was nice and smelled of peppermint. You began to coo and say unintelligible English.

Celestia smiled and removed the pocket watch from your grasp which didn't anger you or upset you as a matter of fact you let her. She was your mother.

Opening the watch she saw a small note inside the watch removing it from its small case she closed the watch and gave it back to you. She held you closer to her warm body as you felt the soothing warmth of her body appealing.

"I shouldn't teleport with him around maybe flying would be best." She said aloud and began to flap her mighty wings towards her bedroom.

A few minutes later...

After a short flight Celestia placed you on her bed and closed the window balcony doors to her room making sure to securely lock it. She sat down beside you and looked at you as Philomena played with you.

To whoever finds our son.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts we thank you for taking in our precious child as he's our little prince and our little sun. Take care of him as if he was your own flesh and blood.

And if you're wondering his name is Dante Artemis Knight.

Love, Chris and Juliet Knight.

Celestia looked at you with tears you only smiled and waved at her as you stood up on the bed and proceed to do small jumps.

"Thank you." She said with a whisper as she held you close to her warm bosom.

A few hours later...

Your eyes slowly opened revealing the dimly lit fireplace in the center of the room alongside a rather filthy looking table to the side.

Looking towards your mom she had a rather large smile to her face, your new feathery friend laid beside you as you felt her warm body against your tiny head.

Staring towards the ceiling you saw a man wearing a Victorian inspired steampunk outfit his hair covered by a large top hat and he also had a pair of goggles dangling from his neck.

"Seems like you got yourself a new mommy kid. Be good to her I promise I'll be here if you ever need me." He patted you on the head making you giggle, his smile bright up the room slightly making the dimly lit fire spark up a bit.

"You're a brave little kid." He petted you once more and disappeared.

A few hours later...

You've been up for quite a bit all the way from seven in the morning to the afternoon. Your day consisted of your new mommy talking to other ponies she was a little scared when she handed you to a group of funny looking ponies, they all had masks over their face and were extremely careful when handling you they seemed to want to know more about you, they let you play with toys like stuffed white rabbit and blocks with numbers and letters.

They were amazed when you placed each number in the correct order even placed the alphabet blocks in the correct order all the way , glancing towards your mother she seemed nervous like she wanted to hold you again, you'd giggle every time you spotted her.

They then gave you a small bowl of mushy applesauce and pushed it towards you and gave you a small plastic spoon, you picked up the mushy substance on the spoon and produced to eat it. You began to stuff your mouth with applesauce, the applesauce had filled up your cheeks and made your cheeks look like chipmunk cheeks you then pushed your cheeks making the apple sauce fly out of your mouth and on to the doctors.

You giggled happily as they simply wiped off the applesauce from their faces. Celestia giggled slightly making you reach for her wanting to be held, she smiled and approached you hugging you as a bit of applesauce dripped from mouth and down your chin.

"Princess he seems to a mixed bred child we're not sure who his parents are and from our understanding he seems more simian then anything, almost closely related to the chimpanzees very far north from here."

"I see his eating habits?"

"Well since he's a baby he'll need milk and not milk that comes from cows, I'm talking about breast milk and well seeing as you're his mother you can provide that for him."

"But I never breast fed him before he isn't even my child."

"You told me that already, you don't have to breast feed him directly you can always buy a milk pump is all but you won't bond as much." Celestia looked at you sucking your thumb your hazel eyes looking at her.

"Well I guess if he's going to trust me." She smiled and hugged you her flowing mane was as pretty and cool, it didn't feel hot at all mostly like a light breeze. She was to protect you and you had to love her just as she'd love you.
