Previous ChapterNext ChapterLike the others, Fluttershy's and Twilight's life had changed. Fluttershy had moved out of her cottage, leaving it for the animals, and moved in with Twilight and Twilight's adoptive filly, Nyx to raise Bookworm.
Bookworm grow pretty tall but then again, that might have just been the alicorn genetics in her. At five, she was half the size of a now 12 year old Nyx. While she was a younger sister, she had become a older sister making her the middle child.
Her baby sister was a pegasus, much like her mom while her baby brother was a unicorn, much like her 'dad'. Her baby sister was called Thistle, which was a type of bird, and her baby brother was known as Whistle.
Thistle's appearance was of a doppleganger of Twilight just without the horn while Whistle's appearance drove from Fluttershy, just with a horn instead of wings. Despite them only being a year old, Thistle had developed a love in books, particularly bird related books. While Whistle developed a nervous and shy personality like Fluttershy, even to the point that he would whistle when he was nervous.
Bookworm was sat in the nursery of the large castle, reading a story book called StellaLuna to Thistle. Thistle was listening to it, while her brother had chosen to have his first magic surge, just to get out of his crib and to join his sisters on the carpet.
The bond between the 3 siblings was pretty strong, even without Nyx. Nyx just added to the bond and the four enjoyed being with each other.
''And the little bat joined her family in the night sky, the end.'' said Bookworm, finishing the story.
''More! More!'' yelled Thistle, causing Bookworm to giggle.
Thistle's wings flapped though she never flew, the doctor had said that when she was born, the wings were smaller then a normal fillies and colts' wings, and though there was a chance she could fly, there was also a very large chance that she won't.
''Alright, let me get another story. I'll be back.'' said Bookworm, with a smile.
She walked out of the room, and downstairs. The library was in the third door on the left in the throne room. She walked into the room, the library was about the same size as the Golden Oaks Library formerly was. And there was books upon books, the room which about 5 shelves into the air, with each shelve being 10 hooves tall. And Bookworm loved it.
She had definitely developed Twilight's love for books and studying. Though she loved animals. She was a true mix between her parents, she wasn't shy but she was studious. She loved animals but wasn't crazy about getting a assessment done.
Flapping her little wings, she rose into the air and went to the shelve full of animals books which was three shelves up and the opposite side of the door. Looking for a book on bird, she glanced through and eventually spotted one.
Smiling, her horn lit up and the book rose off the shelve, wrapped in a beautiful purple glow. She flew back down to the ground, but messed her landing up and fell over.
''Ow!...'' she cried.
A cream pegasus flew in at that, her mother.
''Sweetie, what happened?''
''I was getting a book to read to the twins, and messed up my landing.''
''Oh, be careful please.'' said Fluttershy, before going to tend to the back yard where half of the animals which had lived at her old cottage stayed.
Bookworm got onto her hooves, carrying the book on her back, as she headed to the nursery where Thistle and Whistle was waiting. When she walked in, she was her 'father'.
''Papa?''
''Oh, hey, Bookworm. What you doing?''
''I got a book to read to Thistle and Whistle.''
''Oh alright.''
A whistle was heard, and they knew exactly where it came from. Whistle was whistling due to being nervous about what the book was about. Bookworm giggled and moved to sit on the carpet. When the twins were settled, she began reading with a smile.
