Chapter 1

Discord looked at the clock while he waited, taping one of his talons on the wooden arm rest while he sat in a chair. He couldn't believe this was happening, he didn't even think it was possible! How could his most loved wife, Celestia herself, be PREGNANT?!

The door to the waiting room in the royal hospital opened, revealing a caramel colored stallion, "Right this way Sir Discord." He shot up from his now floating chair, ready for anything that might come.

"Is she alright? Did she have the baby yet?!", said Discord, panting in fear for his wife.

The doctor just chuckled, "She's fine Sir. She just had the baby and is wanting to see you now. Come along, then." Discord heaved a sigh of relief and followed the doctor to Celestia's room. When they entered, he saw the most cheerful thing in Equestria. He looked to Celestia and smiled, holding her hoof, then looked to his new born foal. Or, at least he thought it was a foal.

The foal opened his eyes to reveal the color of them, just like his fathers. It also had two little horns on his head, one swirly green and the other light blue and curvy. Discord looked to its legs and saw the most weird and wonderful thing, the front right leg was a white lion paw, like the color of its coat, and the left hind leg was a dragon foot. What caught his eye, however, was the black ruff around his neck that went a little under the chest.

"Can I... hold him?", He asked.

Celestia giggled, "I think he would like to see his new father." She gently handed the new born over to Discord, who took him into his talons. When he unwrapped the blanket a little, a long tail flopped over his palm, and at the end of the tail was a wispy like, black tail tip that was fur, like the color of its mane. Discord couldn't believe his eyes. He hadn't expected this. He wriggled his white, fluffy tail tip in front of his son and watched him swat at it like a kitten would with a string.

"He's perfect", Discord said, smiling at his wife, "Great job, hon." He kissed Celestia then looked at his new born son, "So what are we going to name him?", he asked, watching his son play with the fluff of his tail.

"Well, I was thinking of naming him... Illusion. How do you like that name?", Celestia asked, smiling at her playful son.

"I think it's wonderful for him. Now, do we know if he has magic?", asked Discord.

His wife shook her head, "Not that i'm aware of, but of course we don't know until he gets a little older." Discord nodded in agreement, "We'll just have to wait till grows then, isn't that right my little Illusion?" He held his son up and rubbed noses with him, making the little foal giggle with joy.

"Congratulations you two! Now, lets get you fixed up little one and let your mother rest.", the doctor said, taking the new born from Discords arms. The doctor left with the baby to groom the baby, and Discord left the room to let his wife rest. He went back to his chaotic dimension and house. With a loud and content sigh, he plopped onto his couch, thinking of what he could do with his new son. After all, if his son did have magic like him, he could do loads of things with him! Like make a pancake rain-cloud, or a chocolate milk lake! Discord laughed as he imagined playing pirate, on a sail boat, in the chocolate milk lake. He liked that idea, boy, are they gonna have TONS of fun when he gets older.

"This will be great! Oh, I just can't Wait till they get back to the castle! Then we can be a family!", He sighed, looking at the clock, "I'll just wait till tomorrow to go back to the castle. After all, they are still in the hospital." He teleported upstairs to his bedroom, and into his bed, pulling the covers over him. Now, he could get some rest. Tomorrow will be perfect for the new father in town.

Back in the hospital, the doctor walked back into Celestia's room with the newly groomed baby.

"Here he is! The squeaky clean prince!", He said as he handed Illusion over to her. Illusion giggled as his mother nuzzled him with her muzzle, "There's my clean Illusion." Illusion's stomach then suddenly growled, telling him he was hungry. He put on a thinking face then a bottle of chocolate milk appeared and he began to drink. Celestia was quite surprised at this. Her new born colt DOES have his fathers chaotic powers.

"This is deffenately going to surprise Discord.", She said to herself. She smiled as he pulled the bottle out and belched. Illusion then yawned, and fell asleep in his mother's arms. Celestia giggled, "Goodnight my little prince, tomorrow you'll get to play with your father."

There was a knock at the door, and a blue alicorn with the cutie mark of a cresent moon entered.

"Hello sister, we congratulate thee with honor.", Princess Luna said, looking at the sleeping baby in her sister's arms.

Celestia nodded, "Thank you little sister. I hope you brought my gift from Twilight and the others?" Luna nodded, showing her the package that came through the mail.

"Thank you.", said Celestia. Her sister smiled and nodded, then left the room and went back to her chambers. Tomorrow is certainly going to be a great day for the new prince in Equestria.

Chapter 2

The next day, Discord jumped out of his bed, ready to see his son and wife at the castle.

"Oh, this is going to be one fun day!", Discord said, snapping his fingers to teleport away to the Canterlot's castle. When he got there, however, he was surprised to see his son FLOATING in mid air! He was giggling while he drank a bottle of what seemed to be, chocolate milk.

"Good morning, dear. Had a nights rest I presume?", His wife asked him, sitting in her thrown.

"Y-yes I-I did honey but um, have you noticed that our son is flying around the thrown room? Without ANY wings?!", He said in disbelief. Celestia nodded, watching her son, "Yes, I am aware of that. Apparently he does have your capable powers." Discord was shocked at this, looking at his son who was now doing loopty-loops in the air.

"This... this is... WONDERFUL!!!", Discord cheered in joy, getting the attention of Illusion. He grinned at his father and flew towards him, hitting him in the gut with a powerful hug.

"D... d-da da.", Illusion said. Discord and Celestia gasped at those words.

"He... said da da. HE SAID DA DA!", Discord said, lifting Illusion and hugging him close. Illusion just giggled and said, "Da da!"

"He said it again! HA! That's my little Illusion!", said Discord, tickling him in his arms which made Illusion laugh.

"My my, and he was just born yesterday and said his first words!", Celestia said, thinking. How could it be that Illusion could speak now? He WAS just born yesterday! Celestia studied Illusion's features as Discord played with him. He was a little bigger, now to mention it. Could it be that he was growing at a constant rate? 'I'll have to study him more.', Celestia thought, watching her son carefully. 'Maybe since he has Discord's powers and was the first born draconaquus of two Gods, he can grow faster than a regular foal.'

This is certainly going to be interesting.

A few years later.....

Illusion watched as a squirrel climbed a tree in the garden. He was resting on a small cloud in the sky, resting from all the lessons that his mother and father were putting him through. He had grown over the years, his body sleek. His tail had grown longer and the furry part was whispy and flowing, so was his furry chest and neck tuffs. Now, he was deciding what to do.

'Hmm, I could always go and make things happen with my magic, but for fun only. Although, if mother and father find out they wouldn't be to happy.' Illusion groaned from his boredom. 'What to do, what to do', He thought.

Suddenly, out in the distance, he saw and heard the most awesome thing he's ever seen. It was a sonic rainboom! His mother had told him about sonic rainbooms, and that they were only made by one mare. One mare who represented the element of loyalty. Her name was Rainbow Dash. He watched as the rainbow streaked through the sky, not seeing the pony however.

'I'll go see this 'Rainbow Dash' for myself, I'm sure mother and father won't mind.', And with that, he snapped his fingers on his paw, and teleported away to ponyville.

Hey everpony, sorry for the long wait, and the short chapter. I've been busy with school lately that I haven't had time to type. School is a nightmare. Am I right?:applejackconfused:

Anyway, hope you enjoy this chapter!

Chapter 3

As Illusion made way to Ponyville in the air, and to see the famous Rainbow Dash, he looked to the ground and saw tons of apple trees! He stopped in mid-air and looked around, then he licked his muzzle and floated down for a quick break. This was going to be a treat for him!

He reached a large branch and landed on it, plucking an apple from its stem and taking one heck of a bite out of it. It was the most scrumptious apple he'd ever eaten! He took several more bites until he had nothing but the core in his paw. Illusion then tossed it to the ground, only to hear a second later a shout from somepony below.

"What in tarnation?!", Somepony said, having a southern accent to her voice, "Rainbow?! Is that you eatin' mah apples again?! I swear you-", The cowpony stopped, wide-eyed at what she saw in the apple tree. Illusion grinned nervously and guiltily.

The farm pony was a lovely shade of orange with a hay straw, colored mane and tail that had ponytails in them. She was also wearing a brown stetson and had three red apples for her cutie mark.

"Uh... h-hi there. I didn't know these were yours.", Illusion said, putting back an apple on its stem with his magic that he had picked off. The cowpony tillted her head in wonder at him, before blinking and shaking her head.

"Well that's alright there, sugarcube. Name's Applejack. What's yers?", She asked him with a warm grin.

"Oh, my name's Illusion, the prince of Princess Celestia and the master of chaos, Discord.", Said Illusion as he floated down to land in front of her with a royal pose. Applejack's eyes went wide at that.

"So... you mean ta tell me that yer the Prince? The Prince that Twilight kept talkin' about after she heard of Celestia givin' birth to a foal?", AJ asked, bewildered in amazement. He nodded in agreement with a warm smile, making Applejack's cheeks to flush a light pink that was bearly visible.

"Twilight's not gonna believe this!", She said as she pulled off her stetson and bowed, "It's an honor ta meet ya Prince Illusion."

Illusion chuckled, making Applejack look up at him in confusion, "Oh, I'm sorry, It's just... I'm not used to ponys bowing for me. It feels weird."

"Ah bet Twilight can relate to that.", AJ said with a slight giggle, "Why don't ya come meet her? She'd be excited to see ya."

Illusion thought while he scratched his fuzzy chin, then said, "Alright, I guess it wouldn't hurt to meet this Twilight friend of yours."

They walked down the path from Sweet Apple Acres, as Applejack had told him that was her home and farm, towards Ponyville and the Golden Oak Library. He was fasinated at the colorful shops and buildings, most of them being yellow with brown roofs.

"So this, Twilight of yours, is she a wizard?", Illusion asked AJ as they walked.

"Well, she's more of the Princess of Friendship.", She said, waving her hoof in a circular motion.

Illusion's eyes widen, realizing the name Twilight for the first time. His mother had told him about her, showing scrolls that she sent back and forth to her and the young Princess. He was finally going to meet her! How he couldn't wait for this moment.

They stopped at the front door of the Golden Oaks Library. Here he was, right at the door of the newest Princess. Twilight Sparkle.
