Caring for the Sickly

    "Silver wake up, I do believe this filly that is in your current care longs for you."

    "Hugh, what?"

    "Your in a dream and I'm here to talk to you."

     I sat there silently and thought for a moment. How does she know about her, oh wait she probably went into her dreams before mine. She is the protector of fillies dreams.

    "I'm here to talk to you about this filly, it seems as if she sees you as her father." I hope he understands what I'm saying...

    "Why yes I am aware of that." I think I know where she is going with this.

     The environment felt like an illusion, purple and blue skies swirled like a whirlpool above. Only an apple tree was present with Princess Luna infront of it. Boy this is odd.

    "Silver in her dreams she remembered how you held her in your hooves, you fed her and kept her clean. When she cried blood you wiped away her tears. She is emotionally attached to you and she has no memory about her past or who are her parents." Hopefully he understands that he has the capability of taking this foal as his own..

    "I discovered the fact that she was without a guardian when I looked at her medical history, she was in Pony Ville's local hospital after all. Luckily she was in the care of nurse redheart a trusted assistant of mine." What would I do without her...

    "She is very good at what she does, you picked the right pony for the right job."

    "Thank you."

    "Back to the filly, you are also emotionally attached to her as well. Is this not true?"

    "With all honesty Luna I have no family left what so ever and I need someone to care for. I've always wanted to be a teacher, an example for a young one. When I was a colt I was always looked to by my cousins whenever they needed my attention. It felt good and being able to help them out was even better! But when you can live for 257 years, it just gets lonely. You know what I mean?"

    "Yeah, I've been sent to the moon for a thousand moons. It changed me indefinetly."

    "So luna, what do you propose I do?"

    "It is already within your heart, do so when the time is right."

     I felt a warm object laying idley in my hooves as I stretched my legs in bed. What ever it was it poked my chest like a fine, small bump that nudged me when I stretched.

    "Yawwwnnnn...... Oh goodness its already morning? Welp better get a shower in."

    "Da?"

    What in the world, did I hear something or was that just my aged brain gone psycho. All I know is that this is my room and I'm in bed. Who could possibly be with me?

     "Da da."

     "Da da?" I looked down and a red and gray mane taking up most of my view. A fresh strawberry fragrance filled the room, probably from the filly "Yes dear?"

      She slowly pulled out of my chest and stared at me vacuosly with her big light brown eyes.

      "Ah!" She opened her mouth a little and held it open for a few seconds.

      "It seems to me we have agreed on our next move, breakfast. But before we get some ponycakes let's get you freshened up!"
