Previous ChapterNext ChapterThis is a work of fiction and My Little Pony Friendship is Magic is property of Hasbro. This chapter was rewritten because a writer by the name of Arzoo told me I plagiarized it so I had to rewrite it. I did not know I did it. I am sorry for the inconvenience for all parties thank you for the wait. I would like to thank Mixed Up too for all his help as well.
It was a pleasant day on the veranda, the sun was shining and the birds were singing, Fleur sat in a simple cafe’ chair across from her was two unicorn foals sitting on a sofa. Fleur let the gold watch sway back and forth. The light from the sun glinted off it. Fleur gave it a pendulum like swing, slow, meticulous, purposeful. The two foals’ attention were completely locked on the gold watch’s motion Hypnosis requires the caster to start small. Start with perfecting the tracing process and then begin submitting simple commands to your subject. As you gain more experience, start complicating your commands with gradual milestones. Fleur reminded reminded herself, reciting the book’s text mentally. Placing a trance over somepony may require some form of tool to bring their heavily active conscious mind down to more susceptible levels. This is more important to new hypnotists who are still learning. Objects metallic and shiny tied to a string such as a gold coin on a string or a polished watch on a chain catches a subject's attention, making it easier for a trance to set in… she recalled. It had been several months since she had began her studies into hypnosis. She had learned many ways to induce a hypnotic trance, music, movement, plant pollen, smells, toys but her favorite was the gold watch, which was using now. Fleur felt confident in what she had to do this was to be her final test.
The two foals barely held onto the tea cups, attention was focused on the gold watch. Haypenny ready to grab the cups when they fell from their hooves. Vocalization is a good indication of how deep the subject is in trance, as it shows how much cognitive thought is still operation. Fleur remembered. “How’s is your tea?” She questioned.
“T...ea go...od.” The colt struggled to answer her. He’s certainly on his way Fleur mused.
“Tea... makes… sleepy.” The filly stammered.
“That’s good, very good,” Fleur said soothingly. “It’s good you feel so sleepy, sleep is good for foals. You want to fall asleep don’t you?” She put more emphasize on her worlds as she continued. “You want to fall asleep, deep, deep sleep. Don’t you?” They only moaned for an answer.
The foals struggled to stay awake. Fleur smiled at this, her work was going well. After her first attempt, Fleur could not risk rising suspension and running her future plans. Fleur had told her servant what she was doing, rather the hypnosis part, they thought it was just some weird hobby she just picked up. She did try adult ponies with little success. But she knew what she needed and when she asked for foals, many were willing to supply their foals. First she used the good foals, to make sure she could perform. Then she use the foals that were slightly problematic to finalize her skills. The bad foals were where she start to experiment with. The worst foals, well, they were her final test. These two were the worst of the worst, but she’d soon fix that.
These foals mother was a maid named Measured Lace, an old friend from far back. In the past she was a rich aries that used her wealth to help other ponies. Fleur remembered all the work they did together all the good things they did. As well as the the greatest dream they shared, a family. She met a stallion that was able to slip her off her hooves, Fleur was happy for her when she got married. She had two foals, the two foals that Fleur had befor her. It looked like she had a family and a good life. Everything seemed so happy, but happiness was not meant to last. It was all an act, the stallion took everything away from her.
Fleur turned back from her memories to watching the foals. She remained quiet for a while watching the foals heads bob. Was their tea cups tumbled from their hooves haypenny caught the teacups before they could hit the floor, his magic grip floated them to a waiting tray.
“You want to fall asleep, you want to be deep in slumber. Don’t you?” She said quietly and softly. Fleur could see that they were trying to stay awake, struggling with everything they had. Fleur looked at the foals, a colt and a filly, Fleur could remember their birth, Measured Lace was so happy and she loved them so much. Then that stallion, ‘HE’ made things worse, he took her money, then her foals. Yes, that stallion took her foals away from her, just to hurt her. He would barely talk to them, when he did it was only to bad mouth their mother and when they believed him he abandon them to a Celestia forsaken boarding school.
Fleur was able to help her friend, she gave her a job as a maid and was able to save her foals and bring them to her. Though they were unruly now she was going to fix that now! Fleur slowly slid over to them quietly as not to startle them. “Good, very good, now listen when I touch your forehead you will no longer struggle to stay awake No, you will fall into a deep, deep, sleep. While in that sleep you will hear everything I say and take it as truth, the truth of your core, it will become part of you.” She reached over and tapped the Colt, who slumped over limply. Fleur stepped over to the filly and tapped her forehead causing her to flop onto her side.
“You are now in a deep trance and until I say other wise you will repeat what I say; You are good little foals, You are very nice little foals.”
“We are good little foals, we are very nice little foals.” The foals said in unison.
“Good, good, You are nice little foals and you want to make your mommy happy.”
“We are nice little foals and we want to make our mommy happy.” The foals parrated
“Good, good, You love your mommy she is always right.”
“We love our mommy she is always right.” Drowned out.
“Good, good, I will now give you a set of phrases to say you will repeat them until I say stop. You are good little foals for your mommy, You love your mommy with all your heart, You believe your mommy no matter what.” Fleur completed the mantra.
“We are good little foals for your mommy, We love your mommy with all your heart, We believe your mommy no matter what.” They repeated. Fleur did not interrupt them as they kept repeating the mantra.
“Good, good, Keep reating what I said until I say otherwise, but remember the more you say it the more it becomes true and become part of you.” Fleur instructed them before she let them continue repeating the mantra .The foals started to chant the mantra. With every round of the mantra Fleur could see their minds accepting their new selves. Soon there was no hesitation, no struggled pause, just content smiles at their worlds. Almost there, just a few more times. Fleur said to herself. It was a good while before Fleur decide to stop them.
"That’s enough.” She stated. “When I count from 3 to 1, you shall wake from your trance, brand new foals. The kind of foals that your Loving Mother would love to have. 3, slowly awaking and eyes opening. 2, aware of surroundings and mind becoming like the kind of foal you were meant to be. 1, back in real time and fully energized as new foals." She tapped them on their foreheads, the foals came awake and smiled at Fleur. “Measured Lace, could you come in please?” A maid came trotting into the room. Fleur examined the maid she was light blue with a silver mane, her ageing on her face was apparent. Measured Lace was the mother of these to foal I have just, helped.
“Yes, Madam?” She questioned.
“Your little foals are proper now,” Fleur smiled back at her. “It’s the least I could do for an old friend.”
“Truly, I thank you Madam. When my former husband robbed me of my inheritance and took my foals…” She paused with a sigh. “I can survive without my fortune but then he turned my foals against me. Thank you for all your help, first by giving me this job and now fixing my foals,” Measure Lace, the maid, smiled. “Come my little one’s.”
Mechanical and in unison, both foals said. “Yes mother.” They followed their mother out.
As Mesure Lace and her foals left and aged, gray stallion strode in. “Madam, I am glad to inform you that we have returned.”
“That’s great Haypenny, did everything go well with Fancy’s business?”
“Yes,the master has told me to show you what he has made for you,” He motioned the mare to follow him.
The two motioned deeper into the mansion, Fleur knew that work ponies had been in and out of the new section of the mansion she didn’t want to disrupt them but now she was being led right to there to where they were working. The new section of the mansion was a magnificent nursery it had plenty of space for her new foals, large window that provide light, a built in a washing skin, a beautiful bay window doors that led to a new garden and outdoor playground, even a little ‘time out pen’ for punishing the little ones. She could see all the fine craft pony ship that was all around her, it was just so amazing.
“It’s beautiful!” Fleur exclaimed as she slowly trotted out into the nursery.
“Glad you like it Ms. De Less,” Boom Crane came into the room. Fleur knew him as her husband’s favorite contractor. So she knew his work was only the best quality. “We aren’t done just yet but by the time we bring your bundle(s) of joy home not only will it be done but fully furnished too. We just got a little behind because of the other project that we were working on.”
“There’s more?” Fleur questioned.
“Yes my dear,” Fancy came into the nursery. “Yes more, come follow me to my next surprize.” Fancy Pants lead his wife to what use to be an old train house. Inside was a brand new train, it was colored unconsciously, but it also looked like it would have belonged to a wealthy and noble pony.
“My, my, my this is amazing,” Fleur chuckled slightly. She watched ponies working on the train mostly polishing and cleaning. The train looked like it had been used, but only on first look. Fleur could see that is was a new construct and only made to look like it had been used. “You finally got to use that old train house and rails on the property. Good for you Fancy dear.” She gave another chuckle.
“Not exactly me, my dear. Ah, yes, I call it the Garden of Shadows. ” Fancy Pants cracked a slight grin at her and then gave a sideways wink.
“Me?” She asked surprised.
“Yes, you, that is because I will be taking our airship to Germaney to cover where the new foal came from. As well as provide some cover for your actions and if I may say, you have many good things to use in this train.”
“Really?”
“Really,” He confirmed. “All sorts of conveniences and useful things, to help with the foals.”
“Oh, Fancy you're so sweet.” Fleur gushed.
“I have spared no expense, you will have a set of technicians, alchemists, engineers, and Haypenny is coming with you to help.” Fancy smiled and then moved closer to her ear. “As well as keep the technicians in line I don’t trust them. The engineers are from Boom Crane and the alchemists are Barely Brew’s”
“Barely Brew is helping too.” Fleur said surprised.
“Yes Ms., I am glad to help.” The formation pegues descended to join them.
“Are you coming too?” She asked. Fleur knew Barely Brew, he was a great alchemist and provided many remedy for her and her husband.
“No man I’m sorry but I still have work to do on the formula. I managed to get the formula not only work for ponies, both partners that is, but have it mix with milk. Now I’m hoping to mix it with a lactation spell so that you could breast feed the foal and make the formula yourself. Sadly no luck, so far.” The alchemist shook his head sadly.
“That’s too bad, but I’m sure you’ll do it.” Fleur encouraged him.
“Thank you for your confidence in me. But I must tell you how this formula work. The formula works by copying the parents DNA. If I didn’t fix it the foals would be copies of you and Mr. Fancy. Now, that would raise red flags so I went about changing it. Then I found a way to fix it, to alter the formula you have to add a little extra;
A Bit of Hoof, would make the foals take the physique like that of the parents.
A Swath of Fur, would make the foals have the same coat as your coats.
A Cutting of Mane, would allow the foals to have the same mane.
A Tear Drop, would give the foal the same eye color.
Finally, A Little Horn Dust, will make the foal of another tribe into a unicorn.
That last one was the biggest change I could not predict. Don’t worry the new unicorn will be able to work magic like any other. I must warn you though, this is the best I would do with a Zebra formula I don't know what other changes may happen to the foal. Nothing bad I assure you, but the formula is working on a genetic level and we ponies are not so proficient with that level of potion work yet.”
"That's quite all right, good fellow. My dear is is all strait for you?"
“There is just so much to remember…” Fleur started.
“Don’t worry madam,” Haypenny interrupted. Then waved to the train and Fleur saw the train being packed. “I am more then willing to aid you and the other alchemist will be there as well. The train is fully ready so I suggest that we get on our way and find a nice place to work. The Master should not know where you are going so as not to endanger the careful planning.” Haypenny helped her on the train.
“Goodbye Mi Amor,” She waved to him as she got on the train. “Our family will be with me when I return.”
“Happy hunting my love.” Fancy shouted to her as the train started to move forward.
Author's Note
Well, here is the rewrite of the last couple of chapter.
I'm glad they are all done sorry it took so long I got pretty sick for a while and couldn't to anything.
Thanks to all of you and especially Mix up for the help. By the way I have a question,
Would you want my Hypnosis Hi-jinks in chapter 8 or some insight into Fancy Pants and what he's up to?
It will only affect chapter 8 nothing more. Just leave me what you think in the comments.
Best wishes to all.
