Sparky Adventuresby CroisSunnyPlayChaptersTalking to the PrincessNew town, Old friendA Shocking SecretMeet the CMCNew Family MemberTruthTalking to the PrincessHi there. My name is Spark Light Blitz. I live in Canterlot with my big brother Lightning Blaze Sparks. I am eight years old and Blaze is seventeen. I admire him a lot. He is the fastest Pegasus across Equestria- No, he is the fastest in the world! Blaze said this was natural. I hope one day I will be as amazing as him. Today, Blaze said that we had to go to the castle to talk to Princess Celestia. I was lying on the couch searching in the TV for something good. "Okay, I have nothing to do anyway." Once we arrived at the castle, we were greeted by several Royal Guards.'I will never be used to this' I tought. They treated us like royalty because Blaze was one of Princess Celestia faithful students and also because I was a Alicorn. Some of them helped us to get to the Throne Room, where Princess Celestia was waiting for us.We walked up to Princess Celestia and I was the first to speak. "Why did you call us here?" I said, earning a disapproving look from Blaze. "SPARKY!!!" He said, with annoyance. "What?" I was a little confused. It was only a question, wasn't it? "Forgive my little brother, Princess. I know I taught him to behave better in front of royalty, but it seems he is like that." Blaze said while sliding a hoof on his face. "Oh, it's no problem. He is just curious. He currently reminds me of a young Pegasus who acted the same way..." She said smiling. Blaze blushed at this and tried to change the subject. "Oh, well... Heh heh... I... need to talk to you of something important." She nodded. "Go on." Blaze took a deep breath. "Sparky and I will move, but I can not think of a good place and..." "And you want me to sugest a good one, don't you?" She asked softly. "Yes, if not uncomfortable." Blaze was a little worried. And if the princess did not want them to move? His mind gave several laps thinking about it until the Princess interrupt his thoughts. "Of course it's not uncomfortable and I already have a great place in mind." She smiled. Blaze let out the breath he did not know he was holding. I don't know why the ponies acted like this when they need to ask something to the Princesses. "Really? What?" Blaze was excited. He always liked the princess ideas. "You're going to Ponyville!" She exclaimed. "Ponyville?" I asked. "Doesn't sounds fun..." "Why not? It is better than the Flying Competitions..." Blaze said. I looked at him with a annoyed face. "It's the only thing you do! This and read all the books in our library!" "Hey! I have not read all the library books... yet." Blaze was starting to get embarrassed. "One day, you got my Magic Practice books and locked yourself in the bathroom! You only came out when finished reading it! Why would you want to read these books?" I said with a angry face. Blaze was blushing at this. "Well... I... I found them interesting..." "See?" Princess Celestia was trying to hide her laughter. Blaze then turned to she and then back at me. "We'll discuss that later. Now we better go home and start packing our stuff." The Princess looked at us. "Before you go, I want to introduce you to someone." We stopped and looked at her. "Who?" We said at the same time. Princess Celestia pointed with a hoof to the side of the throne, where a young dragon was watching everything. "Blaze, this is Spay, your new dragoness assistant." She waved at us with a claw and we returned the gesture. "Oh my gosh, a dragon is our assistant! I can't belive this!" I said, failing to control my excitement. Blaze face-hoofed. 'This will be long adaptation' He thought. Back in our house, we began to pack up what we were going to take. I packed all my Wonderbolts posters, my clothes, my toys and my books. I took it into the living room where Blaze was already waiting. "C'mon, Sparky!" He said. "I don't want to miss the train!" "I'm coming!" I said. "All I have is too heavy!" Blaze sighed. "Here, let me help you." He started pushing everything like if it was nothing. I was impressed with his strenght. "Wow! You make it sound lighter than a feather!" I said. "I not only train my wings, Sparky. Now, let's go to the train station!" "Calm down" Spay said. "There is no need to arrive at the station now. There's still an hour for the train to leave. Meanwhile," she at Blaze. "Blaze, tell me a little more about you." "What?" Blaze said. "Sparky told me all about himself on the way here. But you just talked a little." "Okay" Blaze sighed and turned to me. "Sparky, you can leave us alone for a moment? Go buy an ice cream or something..." His expression was a little sad. "Oh... are you going to tell her that secret you don't want to tell me?" "Sorry, but yes." "Okay then... I'll come back faster than a barefoot rabbit on a hot track!" I said trying to distract me from the fact. Blaze and Spay Laughed at this. I opened the door and went flying. "He is always like this?" Spay asked. "Just while he breathes." The two exploded laughing before Blaze stop with a small cough. "Okay" His face was serious. "Time to tell the truth." After Blaze finished explaining, Spay was froze in place. "So... You and Sparky..." She was at a loss of words. "...Yes..." Blaze was now a little sad. "But please, don't tell this to him." She raised a claw. "You have my word!" She smiled. Just then I opened the door. "Hey guys! Ready to go?" "Okay, little brother. Lets go." He said trying to hide his sadness. "Horray!" In the station, I was quite excited when the train left. Blaze looked at me and smiled. "Excited about the move to another city?" He asked. "No, I'm excited because I'll make new friends!" I bounced in my seat. It was getting late, Blaze looked out of the window and saw that it was dark already. "Okay, this is a long trip, so I think is better that we get some rest." "Yeah..." Spay yawned. "I'm a little tired..." "Oh... Can't I be up a little more?" "If you want to miss the arrival in Ponyville..." Blaze said. My eyes widened at this. "Good night, you to!" I said before run to the bed. I don't wanted to miss it. New town, Old friendI woke up with the sound of train wheels stoping. I yawned, stretched my body and went to where Blaze and Spay were. "Are we there yet?" I asked. Blaze looked at me and smiled. "Yes, we are. Get your stuff and follow me. You too, Spay." Once we finished bringing everything out of the train, Blaze was asking the ponies for directions. "Please," He said to a mare that was nearby "I'm new here. Can you help... me..." The mare continued her path as if she had not heard anything. "Well, I think this will be-" Blaze was interrupted by a pink mare that came suddendly. "Hello! You must be new here! Let me throw you a 'Welcome to Ponyville' Party!" She said with a big smile. "Huh... Thanks for it Miss..." "Oh sorry. I'm Pinkie Pie. What's your name?" "I'm Lightning Blaze Sparks. I moved here with my younger brother, Spark Light Blitz and my assistant, Spay." "It's nice to meet you all! What do you think of the town?" "Uh... It's really... quiet..." "It's really boring!" I said, crossing my hooves. "It's not that boring on our normal days..." The mare said. "Anyway, you have somewhere to stay?" "No, but I-" "Come with me, then. I have some friends that can help you with this!" Her smile was getting wider, something that was really weird. "Wait, I can't go following a mare that I met only five minutes ago!" Blaze said. "Don't worry, nothing bad will happen with you! I Pinkie Promisse!" "You what?" "Pinkie Promisse. Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye!" She made some gestures. Blaze raised a eyebrown in confusion at this. "Okay... Hey, how do you know that we were new in town?" Blaze asked. "My Pinkie Sense told me!" "Your what?" "Well... you see... it's... hard to explain... Anyway, are you coming with me?" "C'mon, Blaze! She is the only help we found!" I said. "Technically," Spay said "She who found us." "Okay, okay! I think it's our only help, so, we'll follow you." While we were following the pink mare, she would not stop talking. And sometimes she spoke so fast that we could not quite understand. "Doyouhaveafavouritecolor?Whatkindofcakeyoulike?Ilovecake!Andcupcakestoo!Iliveinaplacethatselleverykindofcakeandcupcake!And..." She was bouncing up and down while walking. Or was it the opposite? Ack! She's so random! She looked at me stoped bouncing. "Your name is Spark Light Blitz, aren't it?" She asked. "Uhh... Yeah... Why?" I asked in confusion. "Can I call you Sparky?" She smiled. "What? No way! Only my family call me that! And I don't like it!" I said in annoyance. "Oh, but is a cutie-cute name!" "I'm not cute!" I yelled. "Stop with this you two!" Blaze said. "Are we there yet?" "Almost!" She said. "Finally! My feet are killing me!" Spay said. "They are murderers?" The pink mare asked. "What! No! What kind of question is that? "Just to make sure!" "Anyway," Blaze said "You have any guest bedroom where we can stay until we find somewhere to live?" "Of couse I have! It will be Superly-Duperly-Special-Awesome live with you all!" "Blaze, are you sure about this? I mean, look at her! If she is this way in public, imagine in her house!" I wispered to Blaze. "It's better than living under a bridge..." Blaze said. "Okay then. But only if she stops calling me cute!" We arrived in a big building. The top of it was similar to a... Cupcake? I think so... "Ta-da! Welcome to Sugarcube Corner!" She said. "Wow... it's really... Sugar-like?" Blaze was trying to find words to describe the place. "Thanks! Come in!" She jumped inside... Literally. Blaze sighed. "Come on, guys. Let's go in." After we entered, Pinkie said "Hey Mr. and Mrs. Cake! I'm home!" "Oh, welcome back, Pinkie! Where were you?" Said a female voice from inside the kitchen. "I was in the train station! My Pinkie Sense told me that we would have new ponies coming!" "And you wanted to throw a 'Welcome to Ponyville' Party, am I right?" Said a male voice. "Yes! How did you know?" "Oh, Pinkie! You do this to every new pony in the town." "*Ahem* Pinkie..." Blaze said. "Oh, right! I was forgetting! Mrs. Cake, can you come here, please?" "For what?" "I want to introduce you to someone!" Seconds later, a blue mare with a pink mane walked inside. "Who are they?" She said. "His name is Lightning Blaze Sparks and the youngest is called Spark Light Blitz. Oh, Oh! And the dragoness is Spay! They will stay with us until they find somewere to live!" "Oh, right. Hi, it's good to have you all here." "Wait, is that all?" Blaze was confused by the reaction of the mare. "Silly Blaze! The cakes are extremely comprehensive!" "Coming from Pinkie Pie, you can wait everything..." She looked from us to Pinkie and back to us. "My name is Cup Cake. Nice to meet you! Hey Carrot, come here, we have guests!" Some seconds later, a tall light orange stallion approached. "Oh! Hello everypony. My name is Carrot Cake. I hope you enjoy your stay here in Sugarcube Corner!" He said. "Thanks. But first, I need to talk to the local authority and see if-" Blaze was cut of by Pinkie Pie who pop out in his front. "Local authority? I know one! She is my friend! Just drop your stuff upstairs and follow me!" She was bouncing again. "Is she ever like this?" I asked. "In most of the time." Mr. Cake answered. "Where are you taking us?" Spay said. "To the local authority! She will be happy to help you!" Pinkie said as she led the way. We arrived in front of a castle. Blaze was confused. 'Is there other princess in Equestria?' He thought. Pinkie approached the front door and knocked three times. A muffled voice said from inside "I'm coming!" The door opened revealing a lavander mare standing on it. "Oh, hi Pinkie! What do you... want..." She paused as she took notice of Blaze behind Pinkie. "Well, well, what a surprise!" Blaze said smiling. "Twilight Andromeda Sparkle!" "Blaze! What are you doing here in Ponyville? How many times I said to you stop saing my middle name? And this is Sparky? How you've grown!" Her wings suddendly shot open. "Oh, should I adress to you now as 'Princess Twilight Sparkle'?" Blaze joked. "Hey!" Twilight blushed. "So you live here, Twilight?" I asked. "Yes, it's been a while now..." "And you are now a princess?" "Yes..." "And this castle is your?" "Yes." "And you will not invite us in?" "Oh, sorry! Please, come in! We have so much to talk!" Blaze, Pinkie and Twilight were talking about everything they have done. "And you defeated all those monsters?" Blaze asked. "Yes, but I did not do it alone..." Twilight said. "Besides Pinkie Pie, I have four friends who helped me since I got here." "Yeah! We are the bearers of the Elements of Harmony!" Pinkie said. Spay and I were watching the whole conversation. "But tell me Twilight, how did you meet?" "Oh, it's a long history! I-" Twilight was interrupted by Blaze who covered her mouth with a hoof. "We bumped in each other while walking the hallways of the castle of Princess Celestia!" He said nervous. "This is a long history?" I asked. "Uhh... Pinkie, why don't you tell Sparky the time when we defeated all that changelings? Blaze, can you come with me for a moment?" Twilight said. "Okay..." Blaze knew what she was going to ask. Once they were far enough, Twilight asked "You have not told him yet?" "No..." "Why?" "I think he is not ready to hear it... I think I AM not ready to see his expression..." Blaze said sadly. "..." "He's so young! He has a whole life ahead and I do not want to spoil it!" "Blaze..." "I do not know when will come the time to tell the truth..." "Come on! The time is now!" "But... How can I do this?" "I... I'll help you." "...Thanks Twilight." When they returned, Pinkie was telling me about the time when she cloned herself. "And then they made this challenge to look the paint to dry and I won!" "Wow... this is... weird..." "Hey Pinkie, can... can you and Spay go outside a little?" Twilight asked. "Okay! I can present her to all my friends!" Once they were outside, I looked to Blaze with a confused face. "Blaze, what's going on?" I asked. "Sparky... sit down. This is going to be shocking." A Shocking Secret"This is going to be shocking." Blaze said. "Huh?" I was confused. I noticed that his expression was serious. "Okay..." "Sparky..." He started. "Do you remember the time when you woke up in something that looked like a hospital bed?" "Yes... Why?" "Can you remember anything before that?" "No, you told me that I lost my memory in an accident..." "Actually, the story is quite different from that..." "How different?" "Twilight can tell you." "Right." She looked to Blaze and back to me. "Sparky... you don't have memories before that." "What? Why?" I asked. "Because you and Blaze aren't normal ponies." "Why not?" "Sparky" Blaze said. "We have been created in a laboratory." "What! A laboratory... Explosion... I am... What am I saying?" I was in shock. My mind then flashed and that day come to it. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Five Years Ago __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight was dressed in white scientist vest. Blaze was behind her with a pair of large goggles. "Are you sure about this Blaze?" She asked. "I've been feeling alone lately, so yes." "Alright. Let's finish this. But again, why am I doing this?" "Because you are the one who created me, so, you're creating a brother to me!" "Okay, okay! Calm down! Let me only mix this and..." Outside the room, a big explosion was heard. Some ponies just shrugged knowing that it was only one of the experiments of Twilight Sparkle. Back in the laboratory, the room was filled with smoke. Blaze looked around seaching for Twilight. "Twilight! Where are you?" "Ugh... I'm over here...*cough* Why does this happen to me every time? That hurts..." "So, it worked? I got a brother?" Blaze asked. From inside the smoke, a coughing sound could be heard. When the smoke cleared, Blaze and Twilight saw a young Alicorn. "I think that answers your question." Twilight said. "So, have you thought about a name for him?" "Yes. I will call him Spark Light Blitz." Blaze said while holding the little colt. "Sometimes, your ability to think fast impresses me..." "You created me with your intelligence, remember?" "Okay. But now, we need to take him to the hospital and see if there's nothing wrong with him." "You're right. let's go." __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Today __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "And is how it happened..." Blaze finished. I was in complete shock trying to process everything in my mind. "So... You... you lied to me all this time when I asked about our parents?" "Yes... I'm... I'm sorry Sparky..." "Why..." "Sparky?" "WHY? HOW COULD YOU DO IT TO ME ?! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed with rage. "Sparky, wait!" Blaze said. I flew out of the front door with tears in my eyes. Why? Why would he do this to me? Blaze opened his wings to follow me but was stopped by Twilight. "Wait Blaze. Leave him alone for a moment. He needs it." "...Okay." He looked out of the door. "Sparky... I'm sorry..." Out of town, I arrived in a peaceful field and sat in the grass. "Why? Why me? I only wanted a normal life!" My mind whirled around and around trying to accept the truth. "Hey kid, what are you doing out here?" Said a female voice from behind me. I turned my head to see who was talking to me. Standing there, looking at me, were the captain of Wonderbolts, only without the uniform and goggles, Spifire. "Captain Spitfire? I must be dreaming. This can only be a dream! I can not believe I'm talking to the captain of Wonderbolts!" I was so excited that I even had forgotten why I was there. "No, you're not dreaming." She said with a small grin on her face. "I'm really here. But please, just call me Spitfire." "Oh, okay then!" "What are you doing here? Were you crying?" "Oh... Yes, I was..." "Why?" My expression saddened. "I... I don't want to talk about it..." "C'mon, you can tell me!" I bit my lip. I wanted to talk to someone about it, but I couldn't tell the whole truth. "My big brother lied to me about our parents. We are orphans." I started. "For five years he lied to me. I think I can't forgive him for this..." "Your brother is the only relative you have?" She asked. "Yes..." "And you love him?" "A lot..." "So I'm sure you can forgive him." She finished with a grin. "Thanks... Thanks Cap- I mean, thanks Spitfire." I was already feeling better. I just needed a good conversation. "No problem. I need to go now. Give a hi to your brother for me. Goodbye!" She said as she started to fly away. "Goodbye! And thanks again for the conversation!" I turned to follow my own path. It was time to face the truth. Back at the castle, I opened the door and was greeted by a big hug of Blaze. I looked up and realized that there were tears in his eyes. "Sparky! Thanks Celestia you are well! I was so worried!" "Blaze... Sorry for running away like this... I..." "Sparky... can... Can you forgive me for not having told the truth to you?" "You're my big brother. I'll always forgive you." "Thanks Sparky." "So," Twilight said walking into the room. "Now that everything is fine, where you will spend the night?" "Oh, crap! I completely forgot that!" Blaze said remembering why he had come to the castle. "Sometimes I wonder if I really made you with my intelligence..." Twilight laughed at Blaze reaction. "Hey!" "Sorry. Why do not you stay here at the castle? I have several rooms that I did not use. I could separate two to your rooms." "Thanks Twilight. You make a good princess!" He joked. Everyone in the room burst out laughing until they noticed Pinkie and Spay. "Pinkie? When did you get here?" Blaze asked confused. "Rule number one of Ponyville, Blaze." Twilight said. "Never question Pinkie Pie because she is, well, Pinkie Pie." Blaze and I were asleep while Twilight was still talking with Spike. "Now you remember them, Spike?" "Yes, I remember the explosive experiments..." "That was just a glitch in the system! It was not my fault!" She said annoyed. "Yeah, whatever. Hey, you know that technically it makes you their mother?" "What?!" Twilight almost fell off the bed. It would be difficult to live with it. Meet the CMCIt's been two days since Blaze and I moved into the castle of Twilight. It's really fun to live with her and Spike, her dragon assistant. Today Twilight and Blaze entered into my room and woke me up saying that today was a special day. "Huh? How a Monday can be special?" I asked. "I explain." Twilight said. "Today will be your first day at the new school." "New... School? But this has to be now? Let me sleep just five more minutes..." "Well, if you want to lose the opportunity to make more friends..." Blaze said. I jumped out of bed almost instantly. "I'll be ready in five minutes!" Twilight and Blaze laughed at this. "How you do it?" Twilight asked. "Experience." After having protested against taking a bath in the morning, and straighten my mane only to it returns to the way it was, I went to the kitchen to have breakfast. The castle kitchen was huge, enough to accommodate a target shooting training camp. After taking breakfast, I grabbed my backpack and waved goodbye to Twilight and Blaze. "Have a good day at school!" They said. On the way to school, many thoughts were going through my mind. 'New school, new friends, new-' *BUMP* I was so distracted that I ended up hitting myself in someone who was passing by. "Oh, I'm sorry sir! I was a bit distracted and..." "Spark?" He said. "Spark Light Blitz? It's really you?" "Huh? How do you know me?" I asked in confusion. "You do not remember me, do you? It's been so long..." I stood up to get a better view of who it was. A light brown stallion with a dark brown mane was looking at me. "It's me, Time Turner!" He said. "Time Turner... Doctor? It's you? You are so different..." "Yeah, some things happened... But what are you doing here in Ponyville?" "I live here now!" "Really? Cool, I think you will see me a lot here." "You work here?" "Yes, I adjust the city watches." "Okay then... If you'll excuse me now, I need to go." "See you later then." The school was a big red building and had a lot of fillies and colts playing outside. When I approached, everyone turned and stared at me. 'Huh? What is going on? Why is everyone looking at me like that?' Before I think of something I heard someone saying "Miss Cheerilee! It has a prince out here!" "Oh Sweetie Belle," Said a female voice from inside the school. "Are you kidding me?" "No! It's really a prince! Come see!" After some seconds, a purple mare with a light pink mane came out of school door. She approached me smiling and said "You must be the new student Spark Light Blitz, am I right?" "Yes, that's me." "Your brother told me you were coming today. My name is Miss Cheerilee, I hope you like it here. The class starts in five minutes." "Thanks." After Miss Cheerilee finished talking with me, some of the kids started asking questions to me. "Hello! What's your name?" "Oh, my name is Spark Light Blitz. But you can call me Spark." "Are you a prince?" "No, I'm not." "So why do you have wings and a horn?" I had the perfect excuse for that question. "My brother said that I was born this way." "Are you a member of the Royal Family?" "No." "How old are you?" "I'm eight years old." "You don't have a Cutie Mark yet?" "No, and I don't care much about that." "Typical phrase of a blank flank." Said a pink filly from inside the crowd. "What?" "What's the use of being a Alicorn if you do not have a Cutie Mark?" "Hey! That's not cool!" "Oh, and what will you do about it your little dwarf? I'm three years older than you!" "Leave me alone!" I yelled. "Leave the new student in peace, Diamond Tiara!" A yellow filly said from within the crowd of students. "Well, look what interesting thing! The old blank flank defending the new one!" "Go away or ah'll tell everythin' to Miss Cheerilee!" "I only go because I have more important things to do. See you later, little dwarf!" She said with an evil grin before going to another corner. "Hey, thanks for the help." I said to the yellow filly. "No problem." "That filly is like this with everyone?" "Only with those who aren't as rich as she or who don't have a Cutie Mark." "Hmm..." "So yer name is Spark, isn't it?" "Yes." "ah'm AppleBloom. It's nice to meet ya." "Thanks." "Yer' new in town?" "Yes. I moved here with my older brother two days ago." Shortly thereafter, I could hear the school bell ringing. It was time to start class. After everyone had entered the school and chosen their places, Miss Cheerilee introduced me to the class. "Class, this is Spark Light Blitz. He moved here two days ago and will now begin to take lessons with us. I hope you will treat him well. I'm talking about you, Diamond Tiara." She said looking to the pink filly. After class was over, I started my way right back home, until I heard someone call my name. "Spark, wait for me!" I turned to see who it was that was calling me. Was AppleBloom, and along with her were two other fillies, a white unicorn with a pink and purple mane and a pegasus with a dark purple mane. "Yer' pretty fast for someone who has yer size!" "Oh, hey AppleBloom. Who are they?" "Spark, I'd like ya to meet my best friends, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo." "You may not be a prince, but you're as beautiful as one!" Sweetie Belle said. "You probably have heard of me, my older sister is the fastest Pegasus across Equestria!" AppleBloom face-hoofed. "Here we go again..." "So she did not know my brother. He is the fastest, strong and awesome Pegasus worldwide! He could win a race with his eyes closed!" "He is not faster than my sister!" "He is!" "Is not!" "He is!" "Is not!" "Stop this, you two!" Sweetie Belle said. "Yeah, you're acting like children!" "But we are children!" We said in unisom. "Oh, sorry!" After this, Scootaloo and I exchanged a look that said 'This is not over!' and started talking about various other things. "So, where do you live Spark?" "I live in the castle of Princess Twlight." "Are you related to her?" "Something like that..." "What do you mean?" "Well, let's say that all that my brother and I are today is thanks to her." They exchanged a confused look at my answer. We continue walking until the castle came into sight. "Hey Spark," AppleBloom said. "Can we meet yer brother?" "Of course you can! You will be impressed with him!" I opened the door saying "Blaze, Twilight I'm home!" "Welcome back, Sparky! You had a good day at school?" Twilight said. "Almost..." "Oh, hi Twilight!" Scootaloo said. "I see you've met the CMC..." "CMC?" I asked in confusion. "Let me explain." AppleBloom said. "CMC is the abbreviation for 'Cutie Mark Crusader'. We do anythin' to get our Cutie Marks. Ya want to join our club?" "Uhh... No thanks." "You don't know what you're missing..." Sweetie Belle said. "Hey Twilight, where Blaze is?" I asked. "He's in the library." "Thanks. Come with me girls." I opened the door to the library and said "Blaze, where are you?" "Over here!" He said from above. He was flying and carrying several books on the back. "I see you brought visitors..." "What the! How can you fly and carry all these books without even getting tired?" Scootaloo asked. "I told you he is strong!" "And very beautiful..." Sweetie Belle said with a 'I'm in love' face. "Okay, now that's weird..." I waved a hoof in front of her eyes. She was not even blinking. "Sweetie Belle? SWEETIE BELLE! ARE YOU IN THERE?" Scootaloo shouted next to her ear. "I think she is no signal..." "She is not a TV!" AppleBloom said. "Ah think it's better take her home... See ya later Spark." "See you!" With this, they started pushing Sweetie Belle out of the room. "Strange fillies..." Blaze said. "I know..." New Family MemberA week has passed since Blaze and I moved to Ponyville. Twilight introduced us to all her friends. Some were a little weird, but she said it was normal. But our secret kept hidden from everyone. But today is the day. A special day. The best day ever! I've been waiting all year for this day! The day- "Sparky, what are you doing?" Blaze asked entering my room. "What! Uhh... nothing! I was just..." "You were trying to speak as a narrator, weren't you?" "Oh, well... ha ha... I... Hey, what are you doing here so early?" "Twilight and I will be out for the day. You think you can be alone in the castle without destroying the place?" 'Yes! Yes, yes, yes, YES!!!' I tought "No problem." 'I can't belive this!' "Okay then. Try not to make too much mess. We'll be back at 6:00. Now, you better start getting ready for school." Okay. It's my first time alone in the castle. I think he forgot what day is today. Oh well, I know exactly what to do when I get home. After taking breakfast, brush my teeth and fix my bed, I grabbed my backpack and waved goodbye to Blaze. 'I hope nothing happens at school...' Just as I expected, nothing happened at school. Nothing at all. Because the school was closed. "What the? Why is the school closed?" "Hi Spark. What are yer doin' here?" "AppleBloom? What happened? Why is the school closed?" 'I hate asking the same thing twice.' "Ya didn't know? Today doesn't have class because Miss Cheerilee went for a trip in Manehattam." "And now what do I do? Twilight and Blaze are out for the day! Wait a minute... I know! AppleBloom, go find the other Crusaders. Meet me at the castle in five minutes. I have an idea!" I said with a small grin. "What do ya have in mind?" "It's a surprise!" (Five minutes later) "He said to meet he here!" AppleBloom said walking in the castle. "If he's here, then I think he's invisible." Scootaloo said annoyed. "Where my little prince is? I want to hug him and-" Sweetie Belle stopped talking when she realized that the others were looking at her with a confused face. "Oh, did I say that out loud?" "Yeah, ya said." "But don't worry. We already knew that you had a crush on him." Scootaloo joked. "Hey!" Sweetie Belle yelled blushing. "Oh good, you're here." I said walking in the room. I was dressed in a white scientist vest that covered my whole body for being too large and a pair of large goggles. "Why are you dressed like this?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Do you remember that you told me that you would do anything to get your Cutie Marks?" "Yeah, why are ya askin' this?" "Why don't we try to get Chemical Masters Cutie Marks?" I said. "Chemical Masters?" Scootaloo asked confused. "It means 'very good at chemistry.'" AppleBloom explained. "Dictionary!" "Chicken!" "Stop this, you two!" Sweetie Belle yelled. "So," I asked. "What do you say?" They looked at each other and screamed in unisom "THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS CHEMICAL MASTERS, YAY!!!" I took them to the castle laboratory. "Let's do some experiments." I said. I was with a clipboard checking how they were doing. AppleBloom was experimenting with a apple. She was trying to make the apple grow. As soon as she dripped the mixture, the apple exploded. "Try to put less yeast in the mixture." I said covered with pieces of apple. "Heh, heh... Sorry." I continued to the next table where Sweetie Bell was trying to make a permanent glitter. After she mixed all, the jar began to shine brightly. "Try using less glitter." I said with a pair of sunglasses to protect my eyes from the strong brightness. "I'll try." She said blushing. Finally I went to the final table where Scootaloo was doing a mix to increase the speed of her scooter. "Do you really know what you're doing?" I asked. "Not even a little!" She said as she mixed everything. After a few seconds the mixture evaporated releasing black smoke that covered the entire room. "Try to not... put coal." I said from inside the shield that I created to protect me from the smoke. After a few unsuccessful experiments, I decided it was my turn to make an attempt. "Okay, I'll need a few things for this experiment." I said. After almost done, I just needed one more thing to finish the experiment. "Hey Scoots, I need your help to finish the experiment." I said. "What do you need?" She asked. "I need two feathers of different colors. I already have one here so I just need one more." "What are you creating?" "According to this book, if all goes well, I'll be able to create a dragon!" "That. Is. AMAZING! Here's the feather! I want to see this dragon!" "Okay! I just need to put the feathers in the mix and..." Youtube Video After the explosion, I woke up a little dizzy. I searched the lab trying to see where the others were. I found Scootaloo trying to remove the black spots that the explosion had caused on her. "Hey Scoots, are you alright?" "Yes I am. Just a little dirty." "Let's find the others." A coughing sound caught our attention. We followed the sound thinking it was one of the other Crusaders. Once we reach the source of the sound, our jaws almost touched the ground. A white Pegasus colt with red eyes, younger than me, was looking at us. "Mommy, daddy!" He said, giggling. I was speechless trying to process what had just happened. The only words that came out of my mouth were "It's alive! Muahahaha!" I tried to make a mad scientist laugh to emphasize the situation. "Stop this! What has just happened?" Scootaloo asked annoyed. "I don't know! According to the book, this experiment was supposed to create a dragon! And since we are the first who he has seen, I guess he thinks we're his parents." She picked up the book that was in a corner of the room. "You mean this book?" "Yes." "The book that says 'How to Create a Pony' on the cover?" "What the!? Let me see it. Hey, this is not the book I picked up on the shelf! Someone switched the book I got for this one!" "Oh sorry. I think it was me!" A voice said from nowhere. "You Again!" Scootaloo said. "Who?" I asked. "Discord." "Discord? The same that nearly destroyed the world with power of the chaos? What is he doing free?" "Oh, that's a long story..." He started. "So you're reformed?" I asked. "Completely!" He said. "Can I ask one last question?" "Okay." "YOU REALLY THINK THAT WHAT YOU JUST DID IS FUNNY!?" I yelled at him. "Woa! Calm down!" "CALM DOWN?! BECAUSE OF YOU NOW I'LL HAVE TO EXPLAIN TO BLAZE THAT A YOUNG PEGASUS THINK THAT I AM HIS DAD!" "Hey, what is happening here?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Discord? I thought ya were on vacation in... Where did you go again?" "The Earth." He said. "I think I have to explain this to you two." I said. After explaining everything, they had one last question. "So, who's going to take care of him?" Sweetie Belle asked. I looked to the young colt and back to the Crusaders. "I... I'll do it." "You?" Everyone asked in unisom. "Yeah... I know well what it's like to live without knowing the parents... and... I don't want that to happen to anyone." "Spark..." I approached the young colt and hugged him. He giggled and returned the hug. "Daddy Sparky!" He said. "Now I need to think of a name for him. Hmm..." I brought a hoof my chin thinking. I looked at him and said "What do you think of 'Storm Flasher'?" "Storm! Bum! Hi hi hi!" He said. "Ah think he liked it." AppleBloom said. "Ah need to go home. It's almost 6:00." "I think I'll go home too. See you guys tomorrow." Sweetie Belle and AppleBloom waved goodbye and started to return home. "Goodbye. Say goodbye to them, son!" I said to Storm. "Goodbye aunt Sweetie Belle! Goodbye aunt AppleBloom!" He waved to them. "I need to talk to my sister about this whole situation. I'll see you later Spark." Scootaloo said. "Okay. I'll have to explain this to Blaze too. See you tomorrow. Say goodbye, Storm." I said. "Goodbye mommy Scootaloo!" He waved to her. "It will be hard to get used to this." She said. "I know..." "I think I'll go home too..." Discord said. "You're not going anywhere! You will stay here and help me explain what happened!" I yelled. "You know... You're very mature for your age..." "Certain things about me could let you surprised..." "Okay, I'll stay. After all, I'm reformed." "Thanks." "Thanks! Thanks! Hi hi hi!" Storm was giggling all the time. "He will be a very smart colt..." I said with a smile. (6:00 PM) "Hey Sparky! We're home!" Blaze said walking into the room accompanied by Twilight. "And we have a surprise for you!" She said. "Surprise? For me? Where? What is it?" I said excitedly. Twilight smiled and said "Don't you want to give a hug to your new mother?" "Mother? You mean..." "Yes, Sparky. I've adpted you and Blaze." "Twilight and I talked for a long time and we came to this decision." Blaze said. "Oh my god! I can't belive this! This is the best surprise ever!" "Happy Birthday Sparky." She said. "Thanks... Mom." "Oh, what a beautiful scene. I could have a heart attack." "Discord? What are you doing here?" Twilight asked to him. "Spark, tell them." Discord said to me. "Uh? Tell what?" Blaze asked. "Storm, come here!" I called him. After some seconds, Storm entered the room and sat down next to me. "Sparky, who's that?" Blaze asked. "Well... Blaze, mom, this is Storm Flasher... my son." I said scratching the back of my head. "Your what?" They asked in unisom. "Discord, help me here!" I said to Discord, who was trying to escape through an open window. "Okay! I'll explain what happened." After explainig everything, Discord looked to me and said "Can I go now?" "Who will decide this is my mother." I said. "You can go home, Discord. But enough jokes for today, got it?" "I'll try." He said before disappearing in a puff of smoke. "Well, I can not do anything to change your mind about it, right?" Blaze asked. "Exactly." Blaze sighed. "So, 'Storm Flasher' isn't it?" "Say hello to your uncle, Storm." I said. "Hello, uncle Blaze!" I approached my new mother and said "And this is your granny Twilight." "Suddenly I feel so old..." She said. Everyone in the room laughd. "A new family. This is the best birthday present of my life!" "Did someone said Birthday?" Pinkie said popping out from nowhere. "LET'S PARTY!!!" TruthThree days after the 'incident' in the laboratory... _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Daddy, wake up! Wake up! Daddy?" "Uh!? What? Where? Oh, it's you Storm. What you want?" "You didn't say you would take me for a walk in the park?" "Oohh, the park. Okay." Storm is sleeping with me in my room. We got another bed for him to sleep. Now every day I wake up the same way: With a small Pegasus jumping on my bed. After our morning routine of straightening the bed, eat breakfast and brush our teeth, we waved goodbye to my Mom and Blaze. "Be careful, you two!" "Okay Mom!" "Okay Granny!" "Hey Spay, dont you wanna come with us?" "No, I'll stay here and help Spike organize the library." "Okay, bye. Now, where you want to go first Storm?" "Hmm... Can we to Sugarcube Corner buy cupcakes?" "Of course we can! Let's go!" "Hey Dad..." "Yes?" "Can we go flying?" "Oh, you want a race?" "Yeah!" "Okay, let's go then! In three, two, one, go!" _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Storm was as fast as me. We reached the building at the same time. "Looks like you're a good athlete. Keep it up and maybe you can be as fast as your uncle Blaze." "Really?" "Of course! Okay, let's buy our cupcakes." As soon as I opened the door, I bumped into someone who was carrying a plate full of cupcakes, which fell all over me. "Oh, spinning swirls! Why all things insist on falling on me?" "Looks like gravity works more on you than on others." "Oh, it's you Scoots. Very funny, now help me get rid of all this frosting that fell on me." "Hi hi hi! Daddy is a cupcake!" "Hi Storm. How have you been?" "Hi Mom! I'm fine, and you?" "Nothing much... I was just going to take these cupcakes for the clubhouse." "Can I go with you?" "Maybe later, Storm." "Hey guys! What happened?" "Oh, hi Pinkie. It was just someone who needs to look better where she walks!" I said looking to Scootaloo with a annoyed face. "Not at all! It was someone who must learn to knock before entering!" She said, looking in the same way to me. "Chicken!" "Big head!" "Hey, stop this! You are acting like children!" Pinkie said. "Pinkie, we ARE children." We said in unisom. "Oooohhh, it's true! Sorry. And who is this with you?" Scootaloo and I exchanged that look that said 'this is not over yet'. "This is my son, Storm Flasher." "Your son? Aren't you too young to have a child?" "It's a long history..." "Hey, can I throw you a 'Congratulations, you are a young father!' Party?" "Maybe later." "Okie dokie! And who is the mother?" "Scootaloo." "So... you two..." Pinkie said in a strange tone. "What? No! What happened was a problem in the lab!" "Oooohhhh, that makes much more sense." "Can we stop talking about this?" "Okay. Now to the cupcakes!" We went to the counter to buy more cupcakes. Scootaloo asked if there was more chocolate cupcakes with strawberry frosting. I just wanted a vanilla cupcake. "Which flavor do you want your cupcake, Storm?" "Lemon!" "Lemon?" Pinkie asked with a confused face. Only a few ponies asked for that flavor. "Yes, he really like lemons." I said. "Okay then! Wait here." After a few seconds, Pinkie returned with the cupcakes. "It will cost two bits each." I reached in my mane and pulled a wallet full of bits and took four to pay the cupcakes. After having paid, I put the wallet back in my mane. "How did you do it?" Scootaloo asked. "It's just a trick that Pinkie taught me." I said with a wink. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Storm and I were playing in the sandbox of the park. "Storm, wait here, I have to go to the bathroom, okay?" "Okay!" He returned to play until he heard someone speaking to him. "Hello there, little blank flank!" "Uh?" He turned to see who it was. "Who are you?" "Hmpf, you must learn to speak properly with the older, you little dwarf!" "D-Daddy!!!" He said crying. "What is happening here?" I said approaching the place. "S-she is being mean!" I looked to who he was pointing and said "Oh, it's you Diamond Tiara." "You and this dirty Pegasus are relatives? Oh, ho, ho! How pathetic!" She laughed until something knocked her to the floor. She looked up and saw a pair of eyes full of anger. "Look, you can say anything to me, I do not care. But never, ever say anything about my son, you understand me?" I said in a somber tone. "Your son?... I..." She stared at the green eyes that were looking at her, unable to look in another direction. "Go away. NOW!!!" I yelled. She started to run away until she disappeared in the distance. "There, there. You can stop crying now, Storm. The evil pony is gone. Come on, let's go home." I said, comforting my son. "O-okay..." _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Mom, we're home!" I said. "Oh, hi Sparky." "Spike? Where are Mom and Blaze?" "They are in the library with Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rarity." "What are they doing here?" "I don't know." "Thanks Spike. Storm, come with me." We went to the library. I knocked on the door and heard a voice saying "It's open!" As Spike said, the friends of my mother were there. "Hi Mom. What is going on?" "Sparky, I need to tell the truth to my friends about you and Blaze, okay?" "Oh... Okay..." After explaining how Blaze and I were created, she explained the incident with Discord that led to the creation of Storm. "You mean that Scootaloo is involved in this?" Rainbow Dash asked. "That's what Sparky told me." "Look, this is a bit strange, but we're happy that ya told us the truth." Applejack said. "And we'll be here for whatever you need." Rarity finished. "Thanks girls." Mom said smiling. "Hey Twilight, now that everything is okay, let me throw a 'Congratulations, you are a Mother and a Granny of ponies created in a laboratory' Party!" Pinkie said. "This is a very specific party." Blaze said. Everyone in the room laughed at this.
Talking to the PrincessHi there. My name is Spark Light Blitz. I live in Canterlot with my big brother Lightning Blaze Sparks. I am eight years old and Blaze is seventeen. I admire him a lot. He is the fastest Pegasus across Equestria- No, he is the fastest in the world! Blaze said this was natural. I hope one day I will be as amazing as him. Today, Blaze said that we had to go to the castle to talk to Princess Celestia. I was lying on the couch searching in the TV for something good. "Okay, I have nothing to do anyway." Once we arrived at the castle, we were greeted by several Royal Guards.'I will never be used to this' I tought. They treated us like royalty because Blaze was one of Princess Celestia faithful students and also because I was a Alicorn. Some of them helped us to get to the Throne Room, where Princess Celestia was waiting for us.We walked up to Princess Celestia and I was the first to speak. "Why did you call us here?" I said, earning a disapproving look from Blaze. "SPARKY!!!" He said, with annoyance. "What?" I was a little confused. It was only a question, wasn't it? "Forgive my little brother, Princess. I know I taught him to behave better in front of royalty, but it seems he is like that." Blaze said while sliding a hoof on his face. "Oh, it's no problem. He is just curious. He currently reminds me of a young Pegasus who acted the same way..." She said smiling. Blaze blushed at this and tried to change the subject. "Oh, well... Heh heh... I... need to talk to you of something important." She nodded. "Go on." Blaze took a deep breath. "Sparky and I will move, but I can not think of a good place and..." "And you want me to sugest a good one, don't you?" She asked softly. "Yes, if not uncomfortable." Blaze was a little worried. And if the princess did not want them to move? His mind gave several laps thinking about it until the Princess interrupt his thoughts. "Of course it's not uncomfortable and I already have a great place in mind." She smiled. Blaze let out the breath he did not know he was holding. I don't know why the ponies acted like this when they need to ask something to the Princesses. "Really? What?" Blaze was excited. He always liked the princess ideas. "You're going to Ponyville!" She exclaimed. "Ponyville?" I asked. "Doesn't sounds fun..." "Why not? It is better than the Flying Competitions..." Blaze said. I looked at him with a annoyed face. "It's the only thing you do! This and read all the books in our library!" "Hey! I have not read all the library books... yet." Blaze was starting to get embarrassed. "One day, you got my Magic Practice books and locked yourself in the bathroom! You only came out when finished reading it! Why would you want to read these books?" I said with a angry face. Blaze was blushing at this. "Well... I... I found them interesting..." "See?" Princess Celestia was trying to hide her laughter. Blaze then turned to she and then back at me. "We'll discuss that later. Now we better go home and start packing our stuff." The Princess looked at us. "Before you go, I want to introduce you to someone." We stopped and looked at her. "Who?" We said at the same time. Princess Celestia pointed with a hoof to the side of the throne, where a young dragon was watching everything. "Blaze, this is Spay, your new dragoness assistant." She waved at us with a claw and we returned the gesture. "Oh my gosh, a dragon is our assistant! I can't belive this!" I said, failing to control my excitement. Blaze face-hoofed. 'This will be long adaptation' He thought. Back in our house, we began to pack up what we were going to take. I packed all my Wonderbolts posters, my clothes, my toys and my books. I took it into the living room where Blaze was already waiting. "C'mon, Sparky!" He said. "I don't want to miss the train!" "I'm coming!" I said. "All I have is too heavy!" Blaze sighed. "Here, let me help you." He started pushing everything like if it was nothing. I was impressed with his strenght. "Wow! You make it sound lighter than a feather!" I said. "I not only train my wings, Sparky. Now, let's go to the train station!" "Calm down" Spay said. "There is no need to arrive at the station now. There's still an hour for the train to leave. Meanwhile," she at Blaze. "Blaze, tell me a little more about you." "What?" Blaze said. "Sparky told me all about himself on the way here. But you just talked a little." "Okay" Blaze sighed and turned to me. "Sparky, you can leave us alone for a moment? Go buy an ice cream or something..." His expression was a little sad. "Oh... are you going to tell her that secret you don't want to tell me?" "Sorry, but yes." "Okay then... I'll come back faster than a barefoot rabbit on a hot track!" I said trying to distract me from the fact. Blaze and Spay Laughed at this. I opened the door and went flying. "He is always like this?" Spay asked. "Just while he breathes." The two exploded laughing before Blaze stop with a small cough. "Okay" His face was serious. "Time to tell the truth." After Blaze finished explaining, Spay was froze in place. "So... You and Sparky..." She was at a loss of words. "...Yes..." Blaze was now a little sad. "But please, don't tell this to him." She raised a claw. "You have my word!" She smiled. Just then I opened the door. "Hey guys! Ready to go?" "Okay, little brother. Lets go." He said trying to hide his sadness. "Horray!" In the station, I was quite excited when the train left. Blaze looked at me and smiled. "Excited about the move to another city?" He asked. "No, I'm excited because I'll make new friends!" I bounced in my seat. It was getting late, Blaze looked out of the window and saw that it was dark already. "Okay, this is a long trip, so I think is better that we get some rest." "Yeah..." Spay yawned. "I'm a little tired..." "Oh... Can't I be up a little more?" "If you want to miss the arrival in Ponyville..." Blaze said. My eyes widened at this. "Good night, you to!" I said before run to the bed. I don't wanted to miss it.
New town, Old friendI woke up with the sound of train wheels stoping. I yawned, stretched my body and went to where Blaze and Spay were. "Are we there yet?" I asked. Blaze looked at me and smiled. "Yes, we are. Get your stuff and follow me. You too, Spay." Once we finished bringing everything out of the train, Blaze was asking the ponies for directions. "Please," He said to a mare that was nearby "I'm new here. Can you help... me..." The mare continued her path as if she had not heard anything. "Well, I think this will be-" Blaze was interrupted by a pink mare that came suddendly. "Hello! You must be new here! Let me throw you a 'Welcome to Ponyville' Party!" She said with a big smile. "Huh... Thanks for it Miss..." "Oh sorry. I'm Pinkie Pie. What's your name?" "I'm Lightning Blaze Sparks. I moved here with my younger brother, Spark Light Blitz and my assistant, Spay." "It's nice to meet you all! What do you think of the town?" "Uh... It's really... quiet..." "It's really boring!" I said, crossing my hooves. "It's not that boring on our normal days..." The mare said. "Anyway, you have somewhere to stay?" "No, but I-" "Come with me, then. I have some friends that can help you with this!" Her smile was getting wider, something that was really weird. "Wait, I can't go following a mare that I met only five minutes ago!" Blaze said. "Don't worry, nothing bad will happen with you! I Pinkie Promisse!" "You what?" "Pinkie Promisse. Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye!" She made some gestures. Blaze raised a eyebrown in confusion at this. "Okay... Hey, how do you know that we were new in town?" Blaze asked. "My Pinkie Sense told me!" "Your what?" "Well... you see... it's... hard to explain... Anyway, are you coming with me?" "C'mon, Blaze! She is the only help we found!" I said. "Technically," Spay said "She who found us." "Okay, okay! I think it's our only help, so, we'll follow you." While we were following the pink mare, she would not stop talking. And sometimes she spoke so fast that we could not quite understand. "Doyouhaveafavouritecolor?Whatkindofcakeyoulike?Ilovecake!Andcupcakestoo!Iliveinaplacethatselleverykindofcakeandcupcake!And..." She was bouncing up and down while walking. Or was it the opposite? Ack! She's so random! She looked at me stoped bouncing. "Your name is Spark Light Blitz, aren't it?" She asked. "Uhh... Yeah... Why?" I asked in confusion. "Can I call you Sparky?" She smiled. "What? No way! Only my family call me that! And I don't like it!" I said in annoyance. "Oh, but is a cutie-cute name!" "I'm not cute!" I yelled. "Stop with this you two!" Blaze said. "Are we there yet?" "Almost!" She said. "Finally! My feet are killing me!" Spay said. "They are murderers?" The pink mare asked. "What! No! What kind of question is that? "Just to make sure!" "Anyway," Blaze said "You have any guest bedroom where we can stay until we find somewhere to live?" "Of couse I have! It will be Superly-Duperly-Special-Awesome live with you all!" "Blaze, are you sure about this? I mean, look at her! If she is this way in public, imagine in her house!" I wispered to Blaze. "It's better than living under a bridge..." Blaze said. "Okay then. But only if she stops calling me cute!" We arrived in a big building. The top of it was similar to a... Cupcake? I think so... "Ta-da! Welcome to Sugarcube Corner!" She said. "Wow... it's really... Sugar-like?" Blaze was trying to find words to describe the place. "Thanks! Come in!" She jumped inside... Literally. Blaze sighed. "Come on, guys. Let's go in." After we entered, Pinkie said "Hey Mr. and Mrs. Cake! I'm home!" "Oh, welcome back, Pinkie! Where were you?" Said a female voice from inside the kitchen. "I was in the train station! My Pinkie Sense told me that we would have new ponies coming!" "And you wanted to throw a 'Welcome to Ponyville' Party, am I right?" Said a male voice. "Yes! How did you know?" "Oh, Pinkie! You do this to every new pony in the town." "*Ahem* Pinkie..." Blaze said. "Oh, right! I was forgetting! Mrs. Cake, can you come here, please?" "For what?" "I want to introduce you to someone!" Seconds later, a blue mare with a pink mane walked inside. "Who are they?" She said. "His name is Lightning Blaze Sparks and the youngest is called Spark Light Blitz. Oh, Oh! And the dragoness is Spay! They will stay with us until they find somewere to live!" "Oh, right. Hi, it's good to have you all here." "Wait, is that all?" Blaze was confused by the reaction of the mare. "Silly Blaze! The cakes are extremely comprehensive!" "Coming from Pinkie Pie, you can wait everything..." She looked from us to Pinkie and back to us. "My name is Cup Cake. Nice to meet you! Hey Carrot, come here, we have guests!" Some seconds later, a tall light orange stallion approached. "Oh! Hello everypony. My name is Carrot Cake. I hope you enjoy your stay here in Sugarcube Corner!" He said. "Thanks. But first, I need to talk to the local authority and see if-" Blaze was cut of by Pinkie Pie who pop out in his front. "Local authority? I know one! She is my friend! Just drop your stuff upstairs and follow me!" She was bouncing again. "Is she ever like this?" I asked. "In most of the time." Mr. Cake answered. "Where are you taking us?" Spay said. "To the local authority! She will be happy to help you!" Pinkie said as she led the way. We arrived in front of a castle. Blaze was confused. 'Is there other princess in Equestria?' He thought. Pinkie approached the front door and knocked three times. A muffled voice said from inside "I'm coming!" The door opened revealing a lavander mare standing on it. "Oh, hi Pinkie! What do you... want..." She paused as she took notice of Blaze behind Pinkie. "Well, well, what a surprise!" Blaze said smiling. "Twilight Andromeda Sparkle!" "Blaze! What are you doing here in Ponyville? How many times I said to you stop saing my middle name? And this is Sparky? How you've grown!" Her wings suddendly shot open. "Oh, should I adress to you now as 'Princess Twilight Sparkle'?" Blaze joked. "Hey!" Twilight blushed. "So you live here, Twilight?" I asked. "Yes, it's been a while now..." "And you are now a princess?" "Yes..." "And this castle is your?" "Yes." "And you will not invite us in?" "Oh, sorry! Please, come in! We have so much to talk!" Blaze, Pinkie and Twilight were talking about everything they have done. "And you defeated all those monsters?" Blaze asked. "Yes, but I did not do it alone..." Twilight said. "Besides Pinkie Pie, I have four friends who helped me since I got here." "Yeah! We are the bearers of the Elements of Harmony!" Pinkie said. Spay and I were watching the whole conversation. "But tell me Twilight, how did you meet?" "Oh, it's a long history! I-" Twilight was interrupted by Blaze who covered her mouth with a hoof. "We bumped in each other while walking the hallways of the castle of Princess Celestia!" He said nervous. "This is a long history?" I asked. "Uhh... Pinkie, why don't you tell Sparky the time when we defeated all that changelings? Blaze, can you come with me for a moment?" Twilight said. "Okay..." Blaze knew what she was going to ask. Once they were far enough, Twilight asked "You have not told him yet?" "No..." "Why?" "I think he is not ready to hear it... I think I AM not ready to see his expression..." Blaze said sadly. "..." "He's so young! He has a whole life ahead and I do not want to spoil it!" "Blaze..." "I do not know when will come the time to tell the truth..." "Come on! The time is now!" "But... How can I do this?" "I... I'll help you." "...Thanks Twilight." When they returned, Pinkie was telling me about the time when she cloned herself. "And then they made this challenge to look the paint to dry and I won!" "Wow... this is... weird..." "Hey Pinkie, can... can you and Spay go outside a little?" Twilight asked. "Okay! I can present her to all my friends!" Once they were outside, I looked to Blaze with a confused face. "Blaze, what's going on?" I asked. "Sparky... sit down. This is going to be shocking."
A Shocking Secret"This is going to be shocking." Blaze said. "Huh?" I was confused. I noticed that his expression was serious. "Okay..." "Sparky..." He started. "Do you remember the time when you woke up in something that looked like a hospital bed?" "Yes... Why?" "Can you remember anything before that?" "No, you told me that I lost my memory in an accident..." "Actually, the story is quite different from that..." "How different?" "Twilight can tell you." "Right." She looked to Blaze and back to me. "Sparky... you don't have memories before that." "What? Why?" I asked. "Because you and Blaze aren't normal ponies." "Why not?" "Sparky" Blaze said. "We have been created in a laboratory." "What! A laboratory... Explosion... I am... What am I saying?" I was in shock. My mind then flashed and that day come to it. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Five Years Ago __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight was dressed in white scientist vest. Blaze was behind her with a pair of large goggles. "Are you sure about this Blaze?" She asked. "I've been feeling alone lately, so yes." "Alright. Let's finish this. But again, why am I doing this?" "Because you are the one who created me, so, you're creating a brother to me!" "Okay, okay! Calm down! Let me only mix this and..." Outside the room, a big explosion was heard. Some ponies just shrugged knowing that it was only one of the experiments of Twilight Sparkle. Back in the laboratory, the room was filled with smoke. Blaze looked around seaching for Twilight. "Twilight! Where are you?" "Ugh... I'm over here...*cough* Why does this happen to me every time? That hurts..." "So, it worked? I got a brother?" Blaze asked. From inside the smoke, a coughing sound could be heard. When the smoke cleared, Blaze and Twilight saw a young Alicorn. "I think that answers your question." Twilight said. "So, have you thought about a name for him?" "Yes. I will call him Spark Light Blitz." Blaze said while holding the little colt. "Sometimes, your ability to think fast impresses me..." "You created me with your intelligence, remember?" "Okay. But now, we need to take him to the hospital and see if there's nothing wrong with him." "You're right. let's go." __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Today __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "And is how it happened..." Blaze finished. I was in complete shock trying to process everything in my mind. "So... You... you lied to me all this time when I asked about our parents?" "Yes... I'm... I'm sorry Sparky..." "Why..." "Sparky?" "WHY? HOW COULD YOU DO IT TO ME ?! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed with rage. "Sparky, wait!" Blaze said. I flew out of the front door with tears in my eyes. Why? Why would he do this to me? Blaze opened his wings to follow me but was stopped by Twilight. "Wait Blaze. Leave him alone for a moment. He needs it." "...Okay." He looked out of the door. "Sparky... I'm sorry..." Out of town, I arrived in a peaceful field and sat in the grass. "Why? Why me? I only wanted a normal life!" My mind whirled around and around trying to accept the truth. "Hey kid, what are you doing out here?" Said a female voice from behind me. I turned my head to see who was talking to me. Standing there, looking at me, were the captain of Wonderbolts, only without the uniform and goggles, Spifire. "Captain Spitfire? I must be dreaming. This can only be a dream! I can not believe I'm talking to the captain of Wonderbolts!" I was so excited that I even had forgotten why I was there. "No, you're not dreaming." She said with a small grin on her face. "I'm really here. But please, just call me Spitfire." "Oh, okay then!" "What are you doing here? Were you crying?" "Oh... Yes, I was..." "Why?" My expression saddened. "I... I don't want to talk about it..." "C'mon, you can tell me!" I bit my lip. I wanted to talk to someone about it, but I couldn't tell the whole truth. "My big brother lied to me about our parents. We are orphans." I started. "For five years he lied to me. I think I can't forgive him for this..." "Your brother is the only relative you have?" She asked. "Yes..." "And you love him?" "A lot..." "So I'm sure you can forgive him." She finished with a grin. "Thanks... Thanks Cap- I mean, thanks Spitfire." I was already feeling better. I just needed a good conversation. "No problem. I need to go now. Give a hi to your brother for me. Goodbye!" She said as she started to fly away. "Goodbye! And thanks again for the conversation!" I turned to follow my own path. It was time to face the truth. Back at the castle, I opened the door and was greeted by a big hug of Blaze. I looked up and realized that there were tears in his eyes. "Sparky! Thanks Celestia you are well! I was so worried!" "Blaze... Sorry for running away like this... I..." "Sparky... can... Can you forgive me for not having told the truth to you?" "You're my big brother. I'll always forgive you." "Thanks Sparky." "So," Twilight said walking into the room. "Now that everything is fine, where you will spend the night?" "Oh, crap! I completely forgot that!" Blaze said remembering why he had come to the castle. "Sometimes I wonder if I really made you with my intelligence..." Twilight laughed at Blaze reaction. "Hey!" "Sorry. Why do not you stay here at the castle? I have several rooms that I did not use. I could separate two to your rooms." "Thanks Twilight. You make a good princess!" He joked. Everyone in the room burst out laughing until they noticed Pinkie and Spay. "Pinkie? When did you get here?" Blaze asked confused. "Rule number one of Ponyville, Blaze." Twilight said. "Never question Pinkie Pie because she is, well, Pinkie Pie." Blaze and I were asleep while Twilight was still talking with Spike. "Now you remember them, Spike?" "Yes, I remember the explosive experiments..." "That was just a glitch in the system! It was not my fault!" She said annoyed. "Yeah, whatever. Hey, you know that technically it makes you their mother?" "What?!" Twilight almost fell off the bed. It would be difficult to live with it.
Meet the CMCIt's been two days since Blaze and I moved into the castle of Twilight. It's really fun to live with her and Spike, her dragon assistant. Today Twilight and Blaze entered into my room and woke me up saying that today was a special day. "Huh? How a Monday can be special?" I asked. "I explain." Twilight said. "Today will be your first day at the new school." "New... School? But this has to be now? Let me sleep just five more minutes..." "Well, if you want to lose the opportunity to make more friends..." Blaze said. I jumped out of bed almost instantly. "I'll be ready in five minutes!" Twilight and Blaze laughed at this. "How you do it?" Twilight asked. "Experience." After having protested against taking a bath in the morning, and straighten my mane only to it returns to the way it was, I went to the kitchen to have breakfast. The castle kitchen was huge, enough to accommodate a target shooting training camp. After taking breakfast, I grabbed my backpack and waved goodbye to Twilight and Blaze. "Have a good day at school!" They said. On the way to school, many thoughts were going through my mind. 'New school, new friends, new-' *BUMP* I was so distracted that I ended up hitting myself in someone who was passing by. "Oh, I'm sorry sir! I was a bit distracted and..." "Spark?" He said. "Spark Light Blitz? It's really you?" "Huh? How do you know me?" I asked in confusion. "You do not remember me, do you? It's been so long..." I stood up to get a better view of who it was. A light brown stallion with a dark brown mane was looking at me. "It's me, Time Turner!" He said. "Time Turner... Doctor? It's you? You are so different..." "Yeah, some things happened... But what are you doing here in Ponyville?" "I live here now!" "Really? Cool, I think you will see me a lot here." "You work here?" "Yes, I adjust the city watches." "Okay then... If you'll excuse me now, I need to go." "See you later then." The school was a big red building and had a lot of fillies and colts playing outside. When I approached, everyone turned and stared at me. 'Huh? What is going on? Why is everyone looking at me like that?' Before I think of something I heard someone saying "Miss Cheerilee! It has a prince out here!" "Oh Sweetie Belle," Said a female voice from inside the school. "Are you kidding me?" "No! It's really a prince! Come see!" After some seconds, a purple mare with a light pink mane came out of school door. She approached me smiling and said "You must be the new student Spark Light Blitz, am I right?" "Yes, that's me." "Your brother told me you were coming today. My name is Miss Cheerilee, I hope you like it here. The class starts in five minutes." "Thanks." After Miss Cheerilee finished talking with me, some of the kids started asking questions to me. "Hello! What's your name?" "Oh, my name is Spark Light Blitz. But you can call me Spark." "Are you a prince?" "No, I'm not." "So why do you have wings and a horn?" I had the perfect excuse for that question. "My brother said that I was born this way." "Are you a member of the Royal Family?" "No." "How old are you?" "I'm eight years old." "You don't have a Cutie Mark yet?" "No, and I don't care much about that." "Typical phrase of a blank flank." Said a pink filly from inside the crowd. "What?" "What's the use of being a Alicorn if you do not have a Cutie Mark?" "Hey! That's not cool!" "Oh, and what will you do about it your little dwarf? I'm three years older than you!" "Leave me alone!" I yelled. "Leave the new student in peace, Diamond Tiara!" A yellow filly said from within the crowd of students. "Well, look what interesting thing! The old blank flank defending the new one!" "Go away or ah'll tell everythin' to Miss Cheerilee!" "I only go because I have more important things to do. See you later, little dwarf!" She said with an evil grin before going to another corner. "Hey, thanks for the help." I said to the yellow filly. "No problem." "That filly is like this with everyone?" "Only with those who aren't as rich as she or who don't have a Cutie Mark." "Hmm..." "So yer name is Spark, isn't it?" "Yes." "ah'm AppleBloom. It's nice to meet ya." "Thanks." "Yer' new in town?" "Yes. I moved here with my older brother two days ago." Shortly thereafter, I could hear the school bell ringing. It was time to start class. After everyone had entered the school and chosen their places, Miss Cheerilee introduced me to the class. "Class, this is Spark Light Blitz. He moved here two days ago and will now begin to take lessons with us. I hope you will treat him well. I'm talking about you, Diamond Tiara." She said looking to the pink filly. After class was over, I started my way right back home, until I heard someone call my name. "Spark, wait for me!" I turned to see who it was that was calling me. Was AppleBloom, and along with her were two other fillies, a white unicorn with a pink and purple mane and a pegasus with a dark purple mane. "Yer' pretty fast for someone who has yer size!" "Oh, hey AppleBloom. Who are they?" "Spark, I'd like ya to meet my best friends, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo." "You may not be a prince, but you're as beautiful as one!" Sweetie Belle said. "You probably have heard of me, my older sister is the fastest Pegasus across Equestria!" AppleBloom face-hoofed. "Here we go again..." "So she did not know my brother. He is the fastest, strong and awesome Pegasus worldwide! He could win a race with his eyes closed!" "He is not faster than my sister!" "He is!" "Is not!" "He is!" "Is not!" "Stop this, you two!" Sweetie Belle said. "Yeah, you're acting like children!" "But we are children!" We said in unisom. "Oh, sorry!" After this, Scootaloo and I exchanged a look that said 'This is not over!' and started talking about various other things. "So, where do you live Spark?" "I live in the castle of Princess Twlight." "Are you related to her?" "Something like that..." "What do you mean?" "Well, let's say that all that my brother and I are today is thanks to her." They exchanged a confused look at my answer. We continue walking until the castle came into sight. "Hey Spark," AppleBloom said. "Can we meet yer brother?" "Of course you can! You will be impressed with him!" I opened the door saying "Blaze, Twilight I'm home!" "Welcome back, Sparky! You had a good day at school?" Twilight said. "Almost..." "Oh, hi Twilight!" Scootaloo said. "I see you've met the CMC..." "CMC?" I asked in confusion. "Let me explain." AppleBloom said. "CMC is the abbreviation for 'Cutie Mark Crusader'. We do anythin' to get our Cutie Marks. Ya want to join our club?" "Uhh... No thanks." "You don't know what you're missing..." Sweetie Belle said. "Hey Twilight, where Blaze is?" I asked. "He's in the library." "Thanks. Come with me girls." I opened the door to the library and said "Blaze, where are you?" "Over here!" He said from above. He was flying and carrying several books on the back. "I see you brought visitors..." "What the! How can you fly and carry all these books without even getting tired?" Scootaloo asked. "I told you he is strong!" "And very beautiful..." Sweetie Belle said with a 'I'm in love' face. "Okay, now that's weird..." I waved a hoof in front of her eyes. She was not even blinking. "Sweetie Belle? SWEETIE BELLE! ARE YOU IN THERE?" Scootaloo shouted next to her ear. "I think she is no signal..." "She is not a TV!" AppleBloom said. "Ah think it's better take her home... See ya later Spark." "See you!" With this, they started pushing Sweetie Belle out of the room. "Strange fillies..." Blaze said. "I know..."
New Family MemberA week has passed since Blaze and I moved to Ponyville. Twilight introduced us to all her friends. Some were a little weird, but she said it was normal. But our secret kept hidden from everyone. But today is the day. A special day. The best day ever! I've been waiting all year for this day! The day- "Sparky, what are you doing?" Blaze asked entering my room. "What! Uhh... nothing! I was just..." "You were trying to speak as a narrator, weren't you?" "Oh, well... ha ha... I... Hey, what are you doing here so early?" "Twilight and I will be out for the day. You think you can be alone in the castle without destroying the place?" 'Yes! Yes, yes, yes, YES!!!' I tought "No problem." 'I can't belive this!' "Okay then. Try not to make too much mess. We'll be back at 6:00. Now, you better start getting ready for school." Okay. It's my first time alone in the castle. I think he forgot what day is today. Oh well, I know exactly what to do when I get home. After taking breakfast, brush my teeth and fix my bed, I grabbed my backpack and waved goodbye to Blaze. 'I hope nothing happens at school...' Just as I expected, nothing happened at school. Nothing at all. Because the school was closed. "What the? Why is the school closed?" "Hi Spark. What are yer doin' here?" "AppleBloom? What happened? Why is the school closed?" 'I hate asking the same thing twice.' "Ya didn't know? Today doesn't have class because Miss Cheerilee went for a trip in Manehattam." "And now what do I do? Twilight and Blaze are out for the day! Wait a minute... I know! AppleBloom, go find the other Crusaders. Meet me at the castle in five minutes. I have an idea!" I said with a small grin. "What do ya have in mind?" "It's a surprise!" (Five minutes later) "He said to meet he here!" AppleBloom said walking in the castle. "If he's here, then I think he's invisible." Scootaloo said annoyed. "Where my little prince is? I want to hug him and-" Sweetie Belle stopped talking when she realized that the others were looking at her with a confused face. "Oh, did I say that out loud?" "Yeah, ya said." "But don't worry. We already knew that you had a crush on him." Scootaloo joked. "Hey!" Sweetie Belle yelled blushing. "Oh good, you're here." I said walking in the room. I was dressed in a white scientist vest that covered my whole body for being too large and a pair of large goggles. "Why are you dressed like this?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Do you remember that you told me that you would do anything to get your Cutie Marks?" "Yeah, why are ya askin' this?" "Why don't we try to get Chemical Masters Cutie Marks?" I said. "Chemical Masters?" Scootaloo asked confused. "It means 'very good at chemistry.'" AppleBloom explained. "Dictionary!" "Chicken!" "Stop this, you two!" Sweetie Belle yelled. "So," I asked. "What do you say?" They looked at each other and screamed in unisom "THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS CHEMICAL MASTERS, YAY!!!" I took them to the castle laboratory. "Let's do some experiments." I said. I was with a clipboard checking how they were doing. AppleBloom was experimenting with a apple. She was trying to make the apple grow. As soon as she dripped the mixture, the apple exploded. "Try to put less yeast in the mixture." I said covered with pieces of apple. "Heh, heh... Sorry." I continued to the next table where Sweetie Bell was trying to make a permanent glitter. After she mixed all, the jar began to shine brightly. "Try using less glitter." I said with a pair of sunglasses to protect my eyes from the strong brightness. "I'll try." She said blushing. Finally I went to the final table where Scootaloo was doing a mix to increase the speed of her scooter. "Do you really know what you're doing?" I asked. "Not even a little!" She said as she mixed everything. After a few seconds the mixture evaporated releasing black smoke that covered the entire room. "Try to not... put coal." I said from inside the shield that I created to protect me from the smoke. After a few unsuccessful experiments, I decided it was my turn to make an attempt. "Okay, I'll need a few things for this experiment." I said. After almost done, I just needed one more thing to finish the experiment. "Hey Scoots, I need your help to finish the experiment." I said. "What do you need?" She asked. "I need two feathers of different colors. I already have one here so I just need one more." "What are you creating?" "According to this book, if all goes well, I'll be able to create a dragon!" "That. Is. AMAZING! Here's the feather! I want to see this dragon!" "Okay! I just need to put the feathers in the mix and..." Youtube Video After the explosion, I woke up a little dizzy. I searched the lab trying to see where the others were. I found Scootaloo trying to remove the black spots that the explosion had caused on her. "Hey Scoots, are you alright?" "Yes I am. Just a little dirty." "Let's find the others." A coughing sound caught our attention. We followed the sound thinking it was one of the other Crusaders. Once we reach the source of the sound, our jaws almost touched the ground. A white Pegasus colt with red eyes, younger than me, was looking at us. "Mommy, daddy!" He said, giggling. I was speechless trying to process what had just happened. The only words that came out of my mouth were "It's alive! Muahahaha!" I tried to make a mad scientist laugh to emphasize the situation. "Stop this! What has just happened?" Scootaloo asked annoyed. "I don't know! According to the book, this experiment was supposed to create a dragon! And since we are the first who he has seen, I guess he thinks we're his parents." She picked up the book that was in a corner of the room. "You mean this book?" "Yes." "The book that says 'How to Create a Pony' on the cover?" "What the!? Let me see it. Hey, this is not the book I picked up on the shelf! Someone switched the book I got for this one!" "Oh sorry. I think it was me!" A voice said from nowhere. "You Again!" Scootaloo said. "Who?" I asked. "Discord." "Discord? The same that nearly destroyed the world with power of the chaos? What is he doing free?" "Oh, that's a long story..." He started. "So you're reformed?" I asked. "Completely!" He said. "Can I ask one last question?" "Okay." "YOU REALLY THINK THAT WHAT YOU JUST DID IS FUNNY!?" I yelled at him. "Woa! Calm down!" "CALM DOWN?! BECAUSE OF YOU NOW I'LL HAVE TO EXPLAIN TO BLAZE THAT A YOUNG PEGASUS THINK THAT I AM HIS DAD!" "Hey, what is happening here?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Discord? I thought ya were on vacation in... Where did you go again?" "The Earth." He said. "I think I have to explain this to you two." I said. After explaining everything, they had one last question. "So, who's going to take care of him?" Sweetie Belle asked. I looked to the young colt and back to the Crusaders. "I... I'll do it." "You?" Everyone asked in unisom. "Yeah... I know well what it's like to live without knowing the parents... and... I don't want that to happen to anyone." "Spark..." I approached the young colt and hugged him. He giggled and returned the hug. "Daddy Sparky!" He said. "Now I need to think of a name for him. Hmm..." I brought a hoof my chin thinking. I looked at him and said "What do you think of 'Storm Flasher'?" "Storm! Bum! Hi hi hi!" He said. "Ah think he liked it." AppleBloom said. "Ah need to go home. It's almost 6:00." "I think I'll go home too. See you guys tomorrow." Sweetie Belle and AppleBloom waved goodbye and started to return home. "Goodbye. Say goodbye to them, son!" I said to Storm. "Goodbye aunt Sweetie Belle! Goodbye aunt AppleBloom!" He waved to them. "I need to talk to my sister about this whole situation. I'll see you later Spark." Scootaloo said. "Okay. I'll have to explain this to Blaze too. See you tomorrow. Say goodbye, Storm." I said. "Goodbye mommy Scootaloo!" He waved to her. "It will be hard to get used to this." She said. "I know..." "I think I'll go home too..." Discord said. "You're not going anywhere! You will stay here and help me explain what happened!" I yelled. "You know... You're very mature for your age..." "Certain things about me could let you surprised..." "Okay, I'll stay. After all, I'm reformed." "Thanks." "Thanks! Thanks! Hi hi hi!" Storm was giggling all the time. "He will be a very smart colt..." I said with a smile. (6:00 PM) "Hey Sparky! We're home!" Blaze said walking into the room accompanied by Twilight. "And we have a surprise for you!" She said. "Surprise? For me? Where? What is it?" I said excitedly. Twilight smiled and said "Don't you want to give a hug to your new mother?" "Mother? You mean..." "Yes, Sparky. I've adpted you and Blaze." "Twilight and I talked for a long time and we came to this decision." Blaze said. "Oh my god! I can't belive this! This is the best surprise ever!" "Happy Birthday Sparky." She said. "Thanks... Mom." "Oh, what a beautiful scene. I could have a heart attack." "Discord? What are you doing here?" Twilight asked to him. "Spark, tell them." Discord said to me. "Uh? Tell what?" Blaze asked. "Storm, come here!" I called him. After some seconds, Storm entered the room and sat down next to me. "Sparky, who's that?" Blaze asked. "Well... Blaze, mom, this is Storm Flasher... my son." I said scratching the back of my head. "Your what?" They asked in unisom. "Discord, help me here!" I said to Discord, who was trying to escape through an open window. "Okay! I'll explain what happened." After explainig everything, Discord looked to me and said "Can I go now?" "Who will decide this is my mother." I said. "You can go home, Discord. But enough jokes for today, got it?" "I'll try." He said before disappearing in a puff of smoke. "Well, I can not do anything to change your mind about it, right?" Blaze asked. "Exactly." Blaze sighed. "So, 'Storm Flasher' isn't it?" "Say hello to your uncle, Storm." I said. "Hello, uncle Blaze!" I approached my new mother and said "And this is your granny Twilight." "Suddenly I feel so old..." She said. Everyone in the room laughd. "A new family. This is the best birthday present of my life!" "Did someone said Birthday?" Pinkie said popping out from nowhere. "LET'S PARTY!!!"
TruthThree days after the 'incident' in the laboratory... _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Daddy, wake up! Wake up! Daddy?" "Uh!? What? Where? Oh, it's you Storm. What you want?" "You didn't say you would take me for a walk in the park?" "Oohh, the park. Okay." Storm is sleeping with me in my room. We got another bed for him to sleep. Now every day I wake up the same way: With a small Pegasus jumping on my bed. After our morning routine of straightening the bed, eat breakfast and brush our teeth, we waved goodbye to my Mom and Blaze. "Be careful, you two!" "Okay Mom!" "Okay Granny!" "Hey Spay, dont you wanna come with us?" "No, I'll stay here and help Spike organize the library." "Okay, bye. Now, where you want to go first Storm?" "Hmm... Can we to Sugarcube Corner buy cupcakes?" "Of course we can! Let's go!" "Hey Dad..." "Yes?" "Can we go flying?" "Oh, you want a race?" "Yeah!" "Okay, let's go then! In three, two, one, go!" _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Storm was as fast as me. We reached the building at the same time. "Looks like you're a good athlete. Keep it up and maybe you can be as fast as your uncle Blaze." "Really?" "Of course! Okay, let's buy our cupcakes." As soon as I opened the door, I bumped into someone who was carrying a plate full of cupcakes, which fell all over me. "Oh, spinning swirls! Why all things insist on falling on me?" "Looks like gravity works more on you than on others." "Oh, it's you Scoots. Very funny, now help me get rid of all this frosting that fell on me." "Hi hi hi! Daddy is a cupcake!" "Hi Storm. How have you been?" "Hi Mom! I'm fine, and you?" "Nothing much... I was just going to take these cupcakes for the clubhouse." "Can I go with you?" "Maybe later, Storm." "Hey guys! What happened?" "Oh, hi Pinkie. It was just someone who needs to look better where she walks!" I said looking to Scootaloo with a annoyed face. "Not at all! It was someone who must learn to knock before entering!" She said, looking in the same way to me. "Chicken!" "Big head!" "Hey, stop this! You are acting like children!" Pinkie said. "Pinkie, we ARE children." We said in unisom. "Oooohhh, it's true! Sorry. And who is this with you?" Scootaloo and I exchanged that look that said 'this is not over yet'. "This is my son, Storm Flasher." "Your son? Aren't you too young to have a child?" "It's a long history..." "Hey, can I throw you a 'Congratulations, you are a young father!' Party?" "Maybe later." "Okie dokie! And who is the mother?" "Scootaloo." "So... you two..." Pinkie said in a strange tone. "What? No! What happened was a problem in the lab!" "Oooohhhh, that makes much more sense." "Can we stop talking about this?" "Okay. Now to the cupcakes!" We went to the counter to buy more cupcakes. Scootaloo asked if there was more chocolate cupcakes with strawberry frosting. I just wanted a vanilla cupcake. "Which flavor do you want your cupcake, Storm?" "Lemon!" "Lemon?" Pinkie asked with a confused face. Only a few ponies asked for that flavor. "Yes, he really like lemons." I said. "Okay then! Wait here." After a few seconds, Pinkie returned with the cupcakes. "It will cost two bits each." I reached in my mane and pulled a wallet full of bits and took four to pay the cupcakes. After having paid, I put the wallet back in my mane. "How did you do it?" Scootaloo asked. "It's just a trick that Pinkie taught me." I said with a wink. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Storm and I were playing in the sandbox of the park. "Storm, wait here, I have to go to the bathroom, okay?" "Okay!" He returned to play until he heard someone speaking to him. "Hello there, little blank flank!" "Uh?" He turned to see who it was. "Who are you?" "Hmpf, you must learn to speak properly with the older, you little dwarf!" "D-Daddy!!!" He said crying. "What is happening here?" I said approaching the place. "S-she is being mean!" I looked to who he was pointing and said "Oh, it's you Diamond Tiara." "You and this dirty Pegasus are relatives? Oh, ho, ho! How pathetic!" She laughed until something knocked her to the floor. She looked up and saw a pair of eyes full of anger. "Look, you can say anything to me, I do not care. But never, ever say anything about my son, you understand me?" I said in a somber tone. "Your son?... I..." She stared at the green eyes that were looking at her, unable to look in another direction. "Go away. NOW!!!" I yelled. She started to run away until she disappeared in the distance. "There, there. You can stop crying now, Storm. The evil pony is gone. Come on, let's go home." I said, comforting my son. "O-okay..." _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Mom, we're home!" I said. "Oh, hi Sparky." "Spike? Where are Mom and Blaze?" "They are in the library with Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rarity." "What are they doing here?" "I don't know." "Thanks Spike. Storm, come with me." We went to the library. I knocked on the door and heard a voice saying "It's open!" As Spike said, the friends of my mother were there. "Hi Mom. What is going on?" "Sparky, I need to tell the truth to my friends about you and Blaze, okay?" "Oh... Okay..." After explaining how Blaze and I were created, she explained the incident with Discord that led to the creation of Storm. "You mean that Scootaloo is involved in this?" Rainbow Dash asked. "That's what Sparky told me." "Look, this is a bit strange, but we're happy that ya told us the truth." Applejack said. "And we'll be here for whatever you need." Rarity finished. "Thanks girls." Mom said smiling. "Hey Twilight, now that everything is okay, let me throw a 'Congratulations, you are a Mother and a Granny of ponies created in a laboratory' Party!" Pinkie said. "This is a very specific party." Blaze said. Everyone in the room laughed at this.
