"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.
