"Please don't hurt me or blast me into oblivion!" Pleaded Night Winger, pressing himself against the corner of the wall as Princess Cadence slowly approached.

Cadence sighed softly, leaning down to his level. "I promise I'm not going to hurt you, little one. I know you're hungry and I can feed you." She said to the changeling softly from only a foot away.

"How do I know I can trust you?! My mom just left me here!" He wails, tears streaming down his little cheeks.

Cadence sighs softly. "She had good reason to. She obviously cares about you. Now why don't you come give me a hug, hmm?"

The colt only shook his head. His attempts to morph into the wall ended in failure as Cadance brought him close with her magic and held him gently.

"Now doesn't this feel nice?" She asks softly, gazing into the blue orbs that were the colt's eyes.

The colt hesitates, but nods a little and begins to absorb Cadence's love.

"There we go. Good boy."

As Cadance does her best to comfort the child, Shining Armor is pacing the floor, still registering the fact he's got another kid. Not only that, he was forced against his will to please Chrysalis!

Flurry heart trots into the room. "Mom, who's here? I heard another voice."

Cadance chuckles softly and turns to face her daughter. "Turns out you have a brother, Flurry."

Flurry heart gasps shockingly, taking a step back. "H-how?!?! He's a changeling!"

"It's a long story we shall not speak of under this roof, young lady!" Shining spat out firmly, pointing a hoof at the pink alicorn filly.

"...Okaaaayyyy then....well...this got real awkward..." Muttered Flurry Heart.

"No kidding..." Shining rolled his eyes.

Flurry Heart turned her attention to the changeling colt who still seemed rather frightened as he lay in Cadance's arms. "So this little guy is my brother?" She asked, moving to take a closer look. "How did he get here anyway?"

"His mother brought him." Shining Armor growled through his teeth, wishing now he could strangle that over sized bug pony to death.

"He's cute!" Flurry giggled, attempting to give Night Winger an affectionate nuzzle, but the poor colt only moved away in fear. "Awe..."

Despite the situation, Night Winger knew he'd have to make the best with what he had, so he curled into Cadence, finding her fur rather comfortable. Much more than the hard and cold shells of other changelings. He wish he could go home, but he knew not which way to go, or how far it'd be.

"How old are you?" Flurry Heart asks curiously.

"S-s-six..." Replied Night Winger shyly.

"Oh! You're a year and a half younger than me!"

Cadance sighs. "Would you like to actually meet your father now?"

The colt nods a little and Cadence hands him over to Shining Armor who rather looked like he'd do something other than hold his unplanned child. Cadence notices this and gives him a firm glare to which Shining Armor rolls his eyes and takes the changeling in his arms.

"H-hey, there, little guy...I guess I'm your daddy, huh?"

Night Winger shrugs. "I guess so...mommy...never told me you were a pony."

Shining chuckles a little. "Your mommy decided to-" began Shining until he was given a firm punch to the shoulder as well as a stern glare from his wife. He chuckled again, only more nervously. "She decided to suddenly let me know you existed! I..." Shining looks down. "Six...you said you're six, correct?"

"Yes...daddy..." Night Winger nodded.

"As much as I don't like your mother...those are six years I've missed with you..." Shining says softly, tearing up slightly. "You may be a changeling, but you're my son...and those are six years I won't ever have with you..."

"Daddy? Are you okay?" Night Winger asks, worry lacing his slightly high pitched tone.

Shining holds his son tight, sobbing as he does so. Cadance quickly wraps her caring hooves around the weeping stallion to comfort him. Flurry Heart, unsure of exactly what's even going on, joins in, nuzzling her father's cheek.

Once scared, now feeling guilty for his old man, Night Winger hugs Shining tight as he can. "Don't cry, daddy...I'm just happy I finally get to see you."

To this, Shining smiles and gently nuzzles Night Winger who wipes away his tears. "Thanks. That means a lot."

"At first I thought you guys were gonna vaporize me, but...you guys are nicer than mommy," Night Winger giggles.

"Well, isn't that sweet?" Cadence smiles and gently kisses the colt's head.

Night Winger sighs. "It's not going to be exactly easy having me here now...being a you know what...your guards will probably spear me and roast me over a burning flame. Nor would it help to go and say, oh, Chrysalis just dropped off this changeling colt, claiming he's our son and all." He sighs defeatedly. "I'm just going to cause a lot of problems..."

"No, I'm making sure we get this squared away." Says Shining Armor determinedly. Que mane blowing in the wind.

"And how are you going to do that?" Flurry Heart asks, stealing the colt from Shining. "Like little brother said, you can't just go telling every pony."

"We're going to tell Celestia." Stated the captain of the Royal Guard.

"So much for that." Flurry Deadpanns.
