Doorstep foal

Twilight sighed to herself as she laid on a pillow inside her new castle. She was reading a book, with about 10 or so stacked up next to her. She smiled however, liking the book she was reading. She was also happy that she didn't have to worry about being distracted, as both Nyx and Spike had settled down for bed.

Suddenly, a knock rang through the castle's crystallized walls. She raised a eyebrow in confusion and glanced at the clock which spoke half past 11 at night. Who could be at the castle this late at night. She sighed, and walked out of the library; through the throne room and out into the corridor towards the crystal door.

She opened the door, expected to see somepony behind it. However, as she looked out into the stormy night, she saw nopony. She looked around in confusion before stepping out to look better. But she didn't make it too far before her hoof hit something. She stopped in even more confusion and looked down.

There on the dirt ground, in the middle of the stormy night was a small basket. The blanket was soaked through and there was a muffled cry filling her lavender ears. She wasted no time in getting the basket safely inside of the castle walls. Twilight closed the door with her magic behind her, as she walked into the kitchen of the castle.

She levitated the basket onto the table and sat down on a nearby chair before gently nuzzling the basket with my muzzle. The cry became more clear, and thus Twilight sighed. She gently lit her horn in her magical auras and removed the basket from the basket, laying it gently on the table side. She closed her eyes for a second, and turned back to the basket before reopening them. What she saw, she would probably never forget.

There, laying within the basket was a terrified, crying foal. The foal was a pale cream color with the exception of a pale purple star imprinted on the foal's left forehoof. The foal's mane whilst messy and tangled together was a beautiful light purple with a single streak of blue and the foal's eye color was a relaxing shade of light blue. And out from the foal's mane was a pale cream stub, indicating that it was a small unicorn foal at that.

Twilight just stood with her mouth agape, she was shocked that somepony would abandon their foal on her doorstep like this. Hearing a frighten terrified cry brought her attention back. She glanced down at the cream foal inside the basket, and gently picked it up. The foal squirmed a bit but could not get away.

Twilight smiled gently at the foal before looking at her closely, that was when it struck her. The foal was wearing no diaper. She panicked for some time before breathing out and remembering where she had placed the spare diapers from when she foalsat Pumpkin Cake once when Pound had to go to the doctors.

She instantly grabbed one of the diapers, and placed in onto the foal which she was pretty certain was a female now. She sighed in relief, before smiling at the filly. The filly was no longer crying but still looked pretty scared. Twilight smiled kindly, in attempt to calm the filly's fears but it didn't work very well. She sighed and for the first time that night, she spoke.

''What am I gonna do with you?....''

A large lighting bolt hit the ground just outside of the castle, scaring the young filly once more. The foal burst out crying. Twilight once again panicked, realizing she had little to no knowledge of caring for infants. However, as Twilight rocked the filly, she calmed down both herself and the filly. However luck wasn't on Twilight's side as once more that night, the filly cried out but only after a rumbling noise rang from the filly's tummy. She was hungry.

''Milk! Do I still have a bottle on me from when I babysat Pumpkin.....''

She gently placed the filly down on the table in a sitting position. The filly watched as Twilight rummaged through her fridge and cupboards. Once Twilight found a baby bottle within one of her cupboards, filled it with milk and heated it to a lukewarm temperature. Twilight sighed in slight relief, as she turned around and gently with one hoof, picked up the little filly.

She bottle fed the foal gently, something that didn't take too long. The filly didn't appear to be too hungry, as she only emptied half of the bottle which Twilight was slightly thankful for because she didn't have anymore meaning she would have to get some more in the morning and without milk, what could she feed this young foal. The alicorn gently placed the bottle down inside of the fridge before looking down at the filly nuzzled within her hoof. As she looked at the foal, something came to her. ''I wonder what your name is?...''

Twilight glanced at of the kitchen window to see that the rain had cleared up leaving a beautiful night sky full of stars that shimmered on sight, a sight which brought a smile to her face before she glanced down at the foal. ''That's it, your name can be Starry Night for the meanwhile. I wonder if I could keep you and raise you as my own daughter.....''

She sighed, it wasn't possible. She already had her hooves full with Nyx, Spike, Owlowiscious and Peewee, could she really take on another, a baby at that. Suddenly a sleepy voice caught her off guard.

''Mommy....what are you doing up still?''

Turning around, Twilight saw that her young black alicorn adoptive daughter standing at the kitchen door with a concern frown. Twilight smiled, and gently put Starry down on the table and walked over to to the black filly who looked at her with her dragon eyes, eyes that once terrified the life out of Twilight.

''I was reading, Nyx but then I heard a knock on the door. And I well found her.'' said Twilight, as she glanced at Starry who was sitting unfazed on the kitchen table.

''Oh...I see...'' whispered Nyx, with slight confusion in her weak tone.

''Don't worry about it, Nyx. You have school in the minute, don't you? So you need your sleep, go on. We'll be up in a few.''

''Alright, mommy. '' said Nyx, still with confusion and concern with in her voice.

Twilight smiled, as she watched her daughter leave the kitchen and head back up the staircase. She waited a moment before walking back over to Starry Night, who was still waiting unfazed on the table. She once again smiled, and picked up the cream unicorn with her fore hoof. She picked up the basket then with her magic and carried the infant and the basket upstairs. She walked past her own bedroom, Nyx's and Spike's, both of which had a name tag stating their name on, and walked into the next room which was pitch black.

She flicked on the light, to reveal a beautiful baby filly's room. It was a mixture between pink and purple, had a crib to the far side of the room which was wooden and covered in lavenders and a beautiful silk vale. There wasn't a carpet down in the room, instead just a rug which was pink and imprinted with a teddy bear holding a red heart. The walls were pink and purple swirls and in one of the corners of the room was a pile of baby toys like a rattle, and various soft toys. All of this was because she had wanted a foal but wasn't certain at the moment.

She smiled and walked over to the crib. She glanced at Starry once, before gently laying her within the crib carefully. She smiled as the filly turned over into a comfortable position before falling asleep and sucking onto her hoof. With a gently squirt of magic, Twilight pulled the white blanket over the filly and placed a teddy in there, Smarty Pants to be exact. Starry cuddle the teddy with her spare hoof, whilst she used the other as a sucking toy. Twilight sighed gently, that was one thing she would need if she were to care for Starry, a pacifier.

However, she smiled and walked over to the door. Glancing back one more time, she smiled and flicked the light back off before walking into her own bedroom were Owlowiscious was sleeping on his bird perch. She smiled once more, before getting into her own bed. Some moments later, she was fully asleep.

Author's Note

Okay, despite the similarities. This will not be Angel! This is just a simple tale of a young filly raised under the loving care of Twilight

At Sugar Cube Corner

Twilight sighed as she carried Starry with her forehoof, not having a foal carrier yet. She was standing in front of Sugar Cube Corner, she was gripped with some fear. What if her friends didn't want her adopting because of what happened when she adopted Nyx as her daughter? What if...

''No...I can't think like that...'' mumbled Twilight.

She moved forward slowly and walked into the bakery where her friends were sitting at one of the tables waiting for her. Within Fluttershy's hoof was a small filly and bouncing energetically was a small colt. Behind the counter was Cheese Sandwich, Pinkie's husband. The colt was their foal, Mint Pie. And the foal was Fluttershy's and Discord's 7 month old filly named Screwball.

''Hey, girls.'' said Twilight, nervously.

''Oh hello, Twily!'' said Pinkie Pie, energetically before a cry rain through the air. ''Damn it, Surprise. Honey, who's turn is it?''

''Yours, my sweet pie. But since your with your friends, I'll do it.'' said Cheese, before he went upstairs to check on his daughter, Surprise. Pinkie sighed in relief before turning her attention back to Twilight.

''Ya foalsitting, Twi?'' she asked, upon seeing the foal.

''Well...not exactly....''

''Well, I guess it doesn't matter.'' muttered Pinkie, with a hint of curiosity in her tone. ''Honey, bring Surprise down please.'' she called.

''Twilight, why are you caring for a foal though.'' asked Rainbow, as she tickled Screwball who was nuzzled within Fluttershy's hooves.

''Yeah...'' mumbled Fluttershy in agreement.

''Well, girls. That's kinda why I called you here.....''

She was interrupted by Cheese coming down carrying a small filly. Cheese smiled, before he put his youngest down in the playpen. ''I had saw Twilight's new foal before going up so I figured as much.'' said the orange earth pony.

''Thank you, Cheesy. Flutters, put Screwy in the playpen. And Twily too, put Starry in there.''

''Wait, Pinkie....How did you....'' mumbled Twilight.

''Huh?''

''I hadn't told you her name but you know it's starry.''

''Nah, I just guessed it from the fact you have a star cutie mark.'' said Pinkie, with a giggle.

''Okay.....'' muttered Twilight before she placed Starry down in the crib along with Surprise and Screwball.

''So, why did you call us here. Darling?'' asked Rarity, as Twilight sat down.

''Well, it's about the filly....'' she began telling them how she found the young filly, her name and why she had brought her her today.

''Ah see, so ya want ta ask us how we deal with foals.'' asked Applejack. ''Well, one thing is that raisin' a filly is a lot easier then raising a foal. Ah will warn ya that, ya think that ya will have it easy because your raisin' a filly at the moment, ya got another thing comin'.''

''I will keep that in mind.'' replied Twilight.

''Twilight, on this matter. I have to agree with Applejack, and I believe that Pinkie will agree too. Raising a foal is a lot of work, it's ain't really easy when they get to school age but it's still easier then raising a foal, mainly at Starry's age. From the look of her, she is only five month old at the moment.'' said Rarity.

''How did you know that?'' asked Fluttershy, gently. ''Twilight said that she was found so not even Twilight would know her age.''

''Keen eye, Fluttershy darling.''

''I'm in the same boat as Twilight at the moment.'' said Pinkie. ''I'm raising a school-aged colt but also have a baby filly in the meanwhile, it's tough and I have to weigh up everything. But if Twily wants to have two foals, it's her decision and it gives me more birthday and party ideas.''

''So, you agree to this. Pinkie Pie?'' asked Rainbow, from beside Fluttershy.

''Yes-a-roni. It's Twily's choose at the end of the day. I'd ain't gonna pick for her and I believe that Starry would be cute under the care of Twilight.''

''Well, I'm not sure about it. I don't have much knowledge but I have raised Scootaloo since she was a school aged filly as my own daughter.'' said Rainbow, thinking about her adoptive daughter.

''And you did a good job, so don't say you have little knowledge, Rainbow.'' said Twilight, with a smile.

''If you say so...'' muttered Rainbow. ''But, Twi. Are you sure that your prepared for caring for a young foal as young as Starry Night?''

''I'm certain, I mean I done a good job is raising Nyx and she's harder to care for then other foals due to her features.''

Rainbow smiled and nodded. ''Then, I believe that you'll do a good job.''

''So do ah. Twi is a good mare who knows what's she doin'.'' said Applejack with a smile too.

''I agree...'' mumbled Fluttershy.

''ME TOO!'' yelled Pinkie with a wide grin which scared Fluttershy.

''We get it, darling. No need to shout. I mean you scare poor Fluttershy.'' said Rarity, hitting Pinkie with a newspaper gently on the head. ''You alright, Fluttershy?''

''Yea...I'm fine, Rarity.'' said Fluttershy, quietly with a smile. ''Do you agree to Twilight having a foal?''

''I actually do, plus it means I have chances to make unicorn foal onesie ideas. I mean, with Screwball being a earth pony and Surprise a pegasus, I can't really do a onesie with a horn function.''

''Thank you, girls. I needed this. I was curious about keeping Starry as my daughter, I'm pretty certain about it now.'' said Twilight, with a smile on her face.

''Your welcome, Twilight.'' said her friends, all with a smile on their faces.

I fucking hate AJ's accents, it's hard to write!

And, don't ask how Pinkie and Cheese (Two earths, may I quote) had a pegasus daughter.

Playdate

A few days passed since Twilight adopted Starry Night. Both of them were still getting use to the new idea however they were getting along with it just fine. Nyx, Spike and the pets had taken a liking to Starry pretty quickly. Twilight also adored her new baby daughter even though she had to admit, caring for two foals was difficult.

One day, just after breakfast, a knock was brought to the door. Twilight blinked in confusion from her place in the kitchen with Spike and Starry. She turned to Spike and said gently. ''Keep an eye on Star for me please, I will be back in a moment.''

''You can count of me, sister.'' said Spike, with a salute.

''Thank you, Spike.'' smiled Twilight.

The alicorn mare got up and walked over to the door. She used her magic to open the crystallized door to see Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, both holding their respective foal. Surprise was desperately trying to fly out of Pinkie's grip whilst Screwball was trying to use her powers but Fluttershy was controlling her.

''What are you doing here, Pinkie, Fluttershy?''

''Well, Twilight....We both have something to do today so...we thought....that Surprise and Screwy could have a playdate with Starry Night....that is if you don't mind.'' mumbled Fluttershy, in her sweet tone.

''Yes, I have to take Minty to the dentist to have a teeth check up, but he's terrified so I can't be revolving my life around a 3 year old and a 6 old month foal, can I?'' continued Pinkie.

''I understand, girls. The playpen is upstairs, next door to Nyx's room in Starry's new bedroom. Just put them in there and I'll get Starry.'' said Twilight, with a smile.

''Okay.'' was the reply, in unison before they began their trek up the staircase.

Twilight stood there for a moment, watching them with a smile on her face. Starry's first playdate, what a joy. She walked back into the kitchen, where Spike was spoon-feeding Starry the rest of her carrot mush. She smiled and walked over to the pair. ''Is she nearly done, Spike?''

''Just about, Twi. Who was at the door?''

''It was Pinkie and Fluttershy asking if their foals could have a playdate.''

''And you agreed. Do you know how much trouble Screwball alone is?!'' cried Spike frantically, as he almost dropped the spoon that he was holding.

''Yes, I do but I would love Starry to meet fillies her own age, she has Nyx and you but she doesn't have her own playmates yet so if Surprise and Screwy can be her playmates, it's a joy and wonder for her.''

''If you say so, but I ain't helping. I'm actually going over to Rarity's soon.'' muttered Spike.

''You finally gonna ask her?'' asked Twilight, with a grin on her face.

''What!?.....yea...I want her to marry me but I haven't had to courage.'' mumbled Spike, nervously.

''Don't worry your spikes off, you'll be fine.'' said Twilight with a reassuring smile.

Spike nodded gently, not fully reassured, as he fed Starry her last spoonful. He sighed and picked up the toddler and gave her to Twilight. ''Here.... see you later, Twi.'' with that, he left.

Twilight smiled, and carried little Starry up the stairs to the infant's room, where the playpen was. Fluttershy and Pinkie were still there smiling at their own foals, who were playing together. Twilight smiled at her friends and gently trotted over to the pen, and gently placed Starry in it with the other foals.

''Guys, don't you think it's time to leave?'' said Twilight, gently.

''Right, Minty's hospital appointment!'' gasped Pinkie. ''Bye bye, Twily!''

''Yea. Bye, Twilight...'' mumbled Fluttershy, as she followed Pinkie out.

''Bye, girls.'' said Twilight, waving goodbye. ''I'll leave you to play with them, Starry.'' and she left the room to the foals to play within.

''Hey, Surwise.'' said Screwball, in her baby tone. ''Wsn't that foaw the one from westerway?''

''Weww, she wooks famiwiaw.'' said Surprise, in reply. ''So wes.''

''Wets go tawk to hew!'' said the energetic earth pony.

''Gweat idea, Screwy.''

Starry was gently playing with her toys, when the two slightly older foals walk over to her. She squeaked at the sight of them and attempted to hide behind one of her soft toys.

''Hey, hey. wit's alwight.'' said Screwy.

''Who awe you?'' asked Starry, nervously.

''Hewwo. I'm Surwise Pwi!'' said the white pegasus.

''And I'm Screwbaww, wickwamed Screwy.'' said the pink earth pony. ''Wat's your wame?''

''....Um...Swarry....mommy recently named...me Swarry Wight....''

''Cuwe wame!'' said Surprise, flapping her wings energetically. ''Wey, don't you wave a siswer?''

''Uh huh...Nyw...''

''I wisw I had a siswer.'' dreamed Surprise. ''Bwt no, I have mwnt Pwi, inwteed.''

''It's woesn't watter, Surwise.'' said Screwy. ''Swarry, wanna pway with us?''

''....Suwe.....I twink....'' mumbled Starry, nervously.

''Wets aww be frwends.'' said Surprise, finally out from her dream world.

''Suwe!'' smiled Screwy.

''Oway...'' whispered Starry.

Okay, first AJ's accent. Now baby talk (Though won't last forever)

First school day

The next few years went by pretty quickly, Starry was becoming a little more open but retain her timid personality. However, she had gained a thirst of knowledge, similar to Nyx's, but it wasn't as severe so she wasn't on a hunt for knowledge every hour of the day. It was just after her fifth birthday when she started school. She was to go to Ponyville Elementary with Surprise and Screwball. She wasn't all that excited, she was nervous of meeting foals of her own age. But she was glad that Surprise and Screwball would be in her class with her.

The young cream unicorn slept comfortably in her bed. Light streaked over her face, from the nearby window which had the curtains drawn. She groaned but got up. She blinked a moment to get her eyes adjusted to the lighting before getting out of her bed and walking over to the cabinet where her clothes were, she was one of the few ponies to wear clothes going out.

She picked up her beautiful onesie which are auntie Rarity had made her. It was purple, but had pink sleeves for each one of her hooves and had star imprints, the stars being in different colors for each. In all it was babyish but she loved it. She gently put it on, with some difficult because of having to use her hooves, because she couldn't use magic just yet. She grabbed a teal headband, which her sister had gave her when she was slightly younger. The gently placed the headband into her mane, without pulling her mane back because it didn't suit like it did with Nyx. She smiled brightly, as she looked at herself in the mirror.

She then bolted out of her room so fast that a cream, purple and blue trail followed behind her. She ran downstairs and made a sharp turn into the kitchen, only to fall over. Twilight, who had been cooking breakfast, looked at her younger foal and giggled. Even Nyx , who was sat at the table, giggled.

''Not funny!'' cried Starry.

''Your so cute, Starry. Come on, breakfast is ready. It's pancakes.'' said her mother, with a knowing smile.

This made Starry's eyes widen with shock before filling with so much delight that sparkles shined from them. She ran to her seat at the table, yelling 'Pancakes! Pancakes!' all the way. She eagerly waited as Twilight put the pile of pancakes coated head to toe in syrup and there was like 10 or so pancakes in the pile. The young filly giggled joyfully before she began devouring the spread in front of her. Nyx giggled at her little sister, before beginning to eat her own. But Nyx didn't even get to take a bite before Starry yelled out loud ''I'm done!''

''Already?!'' questioned Nyx, awkwardly.

''What, I have elementary school starting today.''

''Oh yea. Mom, I'll walk her down, I have to meet up with the crusaders to head to middle school anyway.''

''Alright, sweetie. See you girls later.'' said Twilight, waving them goodbye.

The sisters waved goodbye to their mom and left the castle, Nyx smiled as she walked next to her smaller sister before asking in a caring voice. ''You can't wait to meet with Surprise, Screwball and Hearth's Ruby, can you?''

''No, I can't wait. 'Prise and Screwy have been my friends for years and Ruby's still my LCBFF.'' At Nyx's confused face, she grimaced and spelt out the meaning. ''Little cousin best friend forever.''

''Oh, did mom and Uncle Shiny's relationship naming give you that idea. I mean mom calls him BBBFF.''

Starry nodded, excitedly as the pair walked into four mares at Nyx's age, ones they knew all too well. It was Applebloom, who now had a cowgirl's hat on with a pink ribbon, Sweetie Belle, who had curled her mane even more, Scootaloo, who literally made her hair look like her idol's by attempting to put rainbow dye into it even though it only dyed parts and she had also colorized her hooves and wings to a cyan color like Rainbow's coat, and Twist, who hadn't changed all that much if you excluded the fact that she no longer wore glasses.

''Hey, Crusaders.'' said the black alicorn, with a smile.

''Hey, Nyx.'' said Scootaloo, in a even more tomboyish tone.

''Is this yer sis?'' said Applebloom, curiously looking at a nervous Starry, who was now hiding behind her sister's leg.

''Yes. It is, Applebloom. I believe this is the first time you met the crusaders, isn't it. Starry?''

''Y-yea....''

''Aw, she's so precious.'' cooed Twist.

''Ah happen to agree, Twist.'' said AB, with a smile.

''Same here.'' said the energetic Sweetie Belle, bouncing up and down almost ruining her beautiful curls.

''Sweetie, I would watch your hair. What will your sister think?'' said Nyx, with a hoof on her face. The group continued chatting along the way to the Ponyville Elementary where three fillies were waiting. Nyx said goodbye to her sister and the crusaders and walked up to her friends, who smiled.

Surprise had grown into a lovely white pegasus with a blonde curly and bouncy mane which like her mother's pink curls. And she had also developed purple eyes. Her wings were big for her age but they weren't massive to the point that she was having to flap her wings very gently to be able to fly.

Screwball had grown into a pink earth pony, even though she was more like a alicorn in earth pony's clothing, with curls of white and purple. Her eyes were a unique thing, they had swirls going from the middle outward and often attempted to hypnotize most ponies because of the purple swirls. However, she was sensitive about them and her powers. Much like Starry, Screwy was a shy filly but less shy than the very timid Starry.

And the last filly was a complete mystery. Hearth's Ruby was a hybrid, of a dragon and unicorn to be exact. She was red in color, hence the name Ruby, with darker red dragon wings but her horn was normal in color. Her eyes were similar to Nyx's, aka they had cat-like daggers running through them, but they were also heterochromic meaning they were different colors, hers were blue and green. And her mane was a mess of purple and green.

''Hey, girls.'' said Starry with a little smile.

''Hey, BCBBF!'' said Ruby, running to hug her cousin. Screwy and Surprise made a awkward glace at each other on the filly's wording users but smiled all the same.

''Everypony, time for class.'' came the cheerful call of Cheerilee.

''Lets go! Lets go!'' cried Surprise, in an energetic voice.

The others giggled at their friend before running after her into the schoolhouse, ready for their school day.

Author's Note

Scootaloo's new design - Here!
Sorry, couldn't get good designs of the others, but it doesn't matter.
Screwy - Here!
Surprise - Here!
Hearth's Ruby - Here!.

Yes, Ruby and Starry are cousins as I believe that Spike and Twilight are siblings.

The very next day....

About 3 in the morning of the next day, crying cracked through the second floor of the castle awakening everybody within the place. Twilight sighed as she walked into the baby's room, and saw that Starry Night had a accident in the night. She sighed, and with a burst of magic changed the diaper into the fresh one. Nyx and Spike walked in.

''Mommy, why did she cry?'' asked Nyx.

''And since when did you have a foal, Twi?'' asked Spike, curious.

''*Sigh* Nyx, she cried because she needed a diaper change. And Spike, this filly here was left on our doorstep about four hours ago.'' said Twilight, sleepily.

''About that, mommy. What's her name?'' asked Nyx, curiously with a smile on her face.

Twilight smiled, as she rocked the filly nuzzled in her hooves. ''Starry Night is what I named her for the time being. Anyways, come on. We all still need to get to sleep.''

Nyx and Spike both nodded in agreement, as they still were tired and not to mention, Nyx had school in the morning then a bunch of crusader stuff to help her friends earn their marks. Twilight watched them leave the bedroom with a smile on her face. She sighed and looked down at Starry.

''....I would love to take care of you....but can I take the burden of two foals?...'' mumbled Twilight, before something hit her. ''Wait... Fluttershy has a foal worse than this so I suppose it doesn't matter all that much.........I will wait till later to make my decision. Till then, I need to get back to sleep''

She sighed to herself before gently laying the now sleeping Starry Night back in her crib. She smiled and walked out of the pretty dark room which was only lit by moonlit streaming in from the window. She smiled gently as she peered into the room before changing directions and walking into her own bedroom.

The morning came within only a couple of hours. Nyx was the first awake but she settled with simply doing the last of her homework which was due in today. It was only a few more minutes before Twilight came into her daughter's bedroom with a smile on her face. Nyx looked up and smiled.

''Morning, mommy.''

''Morning, Nyx. Why don't you head downstairs? Spike's up and making breakfast, it's pancakes.'' said Twilight, with a smile on her face. ''I just need to get Starry Night so she can have a morning feed.''

''Ok!'' said Nyx. She loved the idea of pancakes. ''See you downstairs.''

Nyx bolted out of her room, taking her homework and bags with her in her magical grip. Twilight smiled and giggled a little, before she turned around and walked into the next room, which was Starry's room- for the time being anyway. She walked up to the crib to sleep Starry awake, and playing with Smarty Pants.

''*Giggle* I see your awake.''

This caught Starry's attention, as she turned to the mare. She didn't recognize Twilight at first and blinked a little. But she soon smiled, having remembered the previous night. But one thing confusion the young filly, where was her mama? As a 5 month old filly, she had no idea and it confused her.

Twilight smiled and reached into the crib to pick up the small unicorn filly. The filly never squirms or cried, but instead giggled slightly. At least, before her tummy rumbled indicating that she was hungry. She didn't know what to do, but to cry. She burst out crying. Twilight smiled and wiped Starry's tears.

''It's alright, there still some milk.''

Starry didn't quite understand but she stopped crying and let the mare carry her downstairs. They walked downstairs and into the kitchen, where Nyx was happily sat at the table waiting for her pancakes. Twilight smiled and giggled a little. She then realized, where would she sit Starry. Then it struck her, magic!

She collected her magical energy and materialized a high chair next to the table. Nyx stared at the new magic made high chair, before turning her attention at her pancakes which Spike had just laid on the table. Twilight smiled and walked up to the high chair and gently sat the toddler into the seat.

''Mommy, how old is Starry?'' asked Nyx, as she swallowed some of her second pancake.

''I don't know for certain, sweetie. But I would say about 5 or 6 months old simply because of her size.'' answered Twilight, as she got the half empty bottle of milk of the fridge. She placed the bottle on the table and grabbed a couple of carrots out of her fridge before closing it. She mushed up the carrots and put the mushed up orange carrots into a bowl with a spoon.

She brought the bottle and mushed up carrots over to Starry, as Nyx and Spike ate their pancakes. She gently let Starry drink some of her milk before spoon-feeding the filly the carrot mush, something the small unicorn filly seemed to love. As soon as the bowl was empty, Twilight let the filly continue drinking from her milk so she could eat her pancakes. She took a bite from her first pancake of three and swallowed before looking at Nyx. ''Sweetie, don't you think that you should get to school?''

Nyx gasped and nodded quickly. She finished her last pancake at high speeds, and was quick to get out of the door, just as the CMC parked their scooter and cart in front of the door. The alicorn filly smiled, as she teleported her vest and headband on and got into the cart with Sweetie Belle and Applebloom saying good morning before Scootaloo took off to get her and her friends to school on time. Twilight giggled to herself and turned to Spike. ''I'm going out, take care of yourself, Owlowiscious and Peewee for me.''

''Alright, Twi.'' said Spike, with a honest smile.

''Thank you. I'm going to talk to the girls to find out what I should do with Star here.'' said Twilight gently, as she walked over to the young foal before picking her up.

''I see, see ya later.''

Author's Note

I made hints to Fluttershy's foal, don't worry she'll come into it. I'll give you two hints I done stories on her before and lets say she isn't exactly a normal earth pony filly, see if you can guess.
