One small change can affect the future in an infinite amount of ways, the more time passes the more apparent the differences will become. In a way, the variation between two close Parallel Dimensions can be as much as one sand grain being out of place, but this still being enough of a difference to cause an untold amount of damage to the World as a whole.

[Fate] watched as one Thread that belonged to the infinite variations of Equestria whirled off its course and all because of one simple change before the protections that [Fate] put in there were in place. [Destiny] couldn't help, as there wasn't anything wrong with the beginning and the Cause, it was [Fate]'s jurisdiction to make sure that the results would be as they should. Even then the limited amount of influence it could exploit left almost no options to salvage this mess, it clenched its fists really wanting to have a physical manifestation to strangle the pathetic worthless Earth-Pony that managed to screw things up so royally that the whole World would be left to die.

It was rare, it was almost less than one million's of a percent of a chance to happen, but sometimes there were Worlds that were left beyond saving no matter what. Twilight Sparke bore a colossal weight in the whole scheme of things that were yet to come, and due to one single missed opportunity there now would be far less of a chance for her to even survive long enough to tap into her true potential. [Fate] has a limited amount of options here, the limitations that were applied to the amount of influence it could exploit to nudge the World onto a proper course once more. It was far from enough to literally take Twilight's hand to guide her through all the obstacles on her way and not let her die or break before she would fulfill her role in keeping this literally suicidal World alive.

[Fate] rubbed its forehead with a groan, Equestria was one of the most troublesome Worlds around and require so many things going right to be kept intact that it wasn't even funny. It had to expand all its allowed influence on each and every of its versions to make sure that the dumb Ponies with no actual common sense or instinct of self-preservation didn't keel over due to reasons that even a retarded mouse would be able to find its way out of. Oh, when this World only came around for the first time [Fate] experimented a little with it, but apparently simply directing the Heroin to do lethal blows to her enemies led to her being labeled as a Villain no matter the circumstances and therefore left the World to crash and burn from the next Calamity that decides to come knocking. Getting Twilight prepared before the start of the disasters upset [Destiny] too much as Celestia often simply didn't take the filly as her student seeing her rather nonplused attitude towards actually making sure that things that haunt the citizens of the Country are dealt with properly and without any chance to come back to bite them.

This was a mess, and with [Time] being adamant about the amount of the changes that can be efficiently done to the Timeline from the inside [Fate] didn't even have the option of a Stable Timeloop being put into the list of possible solutions. No amount of nudges and small alterations would solve this World, Twilight simply didn't have the capacity to perform to the best of her Potential without that small fact that now was outside of [Fate]'s reach simply because it will take all the possible alterations for it to get that stupid change undone and there still will be Calamities coming without it being able to prevent them. [Destiny] would not let [Fate] remove some of the load of the things to come as each one of those little bastards also had their proper End and Role to fulfill and damn the consequences! For the potential good it could do [Fate] was now even ready to consider dropping a Nuke onto the whole Country and let the things play out as the Ponies will be baptized by fire into living beings with actual backbones!

Suddenly [Fate] blinked, it wasn't like it couldn't do so but it will surely exhaust all what it could do to this particular World in one big swoop. But there was some potential here, as many small changes didn't work so on the other side one big one should be a possible solution. Twilight Sparkle needed Spike, as he was one of the key pieces for her development and actual maturing into the mare she was when she took the Element of Magic onto herself. He gave the most of the nudges she needed to be ready mentally, Celestia taught her some Magic and other little things and then she was learning by experiencing things in Ponyville for the foreseen future. One of the consequences of the original difference was the lack of Spike's egg, the test was still hard but nothing on the scale of what happened originally.

[Fate] smirked, if [Destiny] wanted its results so desperately then they would justify any means, right? While simply restoring Spike on his proper place would be possible and would give Twilight the right background for her to recover the Elements, she won't be able to face the Challenges and Obstacles ahead and will either die or break into more pieces than anyone would be able to collect and put back together. No, she would still need similar Experience but with a severely amplified intensity to toughen her up and provide some more protection for her to be able to bring out on demand when things will start going south. That meant that she would require a substitute and a valid one that will actually fit the bill on multiple occasions, brute-forcing things here was the only option as nothing else would actually manage to work.

Now, [Fate] only needed a possible replacement of the little Dragon that right now was unredeemable out of a picture. Pulling something out of Equestria was out of a question, only somehow binding Discord himself to her would suffice and, while possible, would cause to much collateral damage to be anything but a footnote. That left an introduction of something new to the World, but there were so many options that [Fate] honestly was hesitating on the choice here. Putting something too powerful will certainly do the deed, but it will remove the whole thing with Twilight becoming an Alicorn and probably a good portion of the map would have to be redrawn after some of the candidates would encounter Discord. Weaker options simply didn't pull through here, anything that came from an egg and was weaker than a freaking Nemean Lion in its prime wouldn't simply cut it. Pity those tank-like puffballs were mammals, or [Fate] would've had a good solution already. Any of the more Mystical Beasts were also out, the ones that grew fast enough to reach the appropriate Power-Level by the age of eight would be too strong later on or simply too big to provide any assistance without stepping on someone.

[Fate] paused, the factor about them being too strong can be sidestepped if their strength would be directly connected to Twilight and will force her to grow along with them to keep up. It was a bit too crude for [Fate]'s tastes, but beggers can't be choosers and with how badly everything could turn out in the end... So that was one problem solved and about a billion ones to go, next came the fact that he would need to look for something that won't cause too much damage itself because otherwise the whole point would be lost and the result will be the same in the end. The fact that they would need to be coming from eggs let [Fate] a lot more leeway as it provided far more space for the maneuvers due to cost on bringing in an infant in was a lot less than even a child.

[Fate] smirked, with the amount it could pull in it would be able to pull at least...

Suddenly it stopped, and a borderline devious smile come to its lips. The problem also was in Twilight making friends with the five that were connected to her that hippy-shockwave, but they weren't actually a constant and could be either replaced or removed entirely. They were just the most convenient and easily accessible candidates for the position of the Bearers, this was mostly [Destiny]'s way of putting all the pieces in place for the big brand finale that it wanted so much. Well, [Fate] was limited only by the goals of all Villains being defeated and Twilight becoming an Alicorn in the end while all the additional bonuses were all produced for one of these goals to be achieved easier. They also provided lessons for Twilight to learn on her path to Ascension but in the grand scheme of things they were as useful as rocks with words scribed on them with an explanation for each and every lesson needed.

If Twilight will learn all these things on her own...

More so, if she will be encountering them at a far close proximity and will be a lot more involved in them. There was potential there, but it will require for her to be emotionally invested into finding the solution for the trials that will await her in the future. A small shift in her interaction with the replacement would guarantee that, but at the same time may result in an overt feedback that would cause her to crumble long before being able to pull weight on her own in a situation like that. [Fate] frowned, it will require some work but if she would feel a strong enough desire and if her own development would be connected...

This variant will require not one, but two or more beings being involved.

[Fate] smiled, it already could see how this will work out if all will go according to plan, even without [Time]'s assistance to see the things to come. It even came up with perfect candidates for this, a little bit of alteration for them to fit the purpose and make sure that it won't cause any diminishment of their Power... Compression was a better solution, it will cut off some of the possibly needed alteration at a later date but it was already a gamble and [Fate] knew that there was a good chance that Twilight will manage to pull through. With a flex of its Power seven eggs containing seven particular beings were inserted into the peaceful land of Equestria, to be found and then hatched by Twilight Sparkle at a later date.

[Fate] sat on its throne above all Creation and watched the events unfolded, it actually counted how much rocking of the boat it will take for [Destiny] to come screeching about its plans being ruined and burned down. This, in the end, should prove to be so much fun.

Top Marks sighed as another hopeful candidate for the prestige School for Gifted Unicorns walked away, this was becoming a rather productive year as several of the newly accepted students showed some great promises. He certainly wasn't complaining about the fresh youth coming, the Exam that the children had to finish was upgraded once again and his curiosity was going up several notches as he watched the new arrival walking through the door while being accomplished by her parents. He honestly wasn't sure what Princess Celestia was trying to accomplish with this last test that she integrated several years prior, the rather simple examination with a machine that any decent hospital possessed could probably tell you what Magical Potential the filly had without the need for an elaborate thing that he was now going to supervise.

'Honestly, if these things managed to resist her own Magic then what hope could a filly have?' The candidate, Twilight Sparkle his notes supplied, was apparently a very gifted little one with a rather noticeable academic mind and a thirst for knowledge. Her theoretical portion of an exam was already finished and she earned full marks, only on this Top was ready to pass her without the need for this formality that was this whole thing. He looked her over, a rather short one with slightly pale skin and bright violet eyes, pale light-grayish mulberry horn poked out on her forehead. Her moderate sapphire blue hair with moderate violet and brilliant rose streaks cascaded down her back right down to her knees and matched her tail, she was wearing a white sundress with a light purple west and brown shoes.

'Oh, familiar faces.' Top noticed Twilight Velvet and Night Light standing behind, he had a very good memory and remembered another candidate that passed several years ago and was followed by these two. His name was... Shining Armor? Yes, the colt was all nervous to the point of almost breaking down but he was slightly more composed than what now appeared to be his younger sister. Well, if they had the same potential then this test would be a breeze for her, Top exchanged glances with three of his colleges and still keeping a rather bored mask on gave a small nod of acknowledgment. They answered in kind, Twilight was already accepted and this last part was mostly a formality that had to happen due to Princess' insistence that it will show the youth that all is ahead of them no matter what.

Crystal Clear would be indifferent, the mare needed her dose of coffee before she would be able to operate as a living being and her dull look and almost closing eyes were telling Top that she didn't get her morning fix. It was a miracle that she wasn't snoring right now, at least she had her glasses right side up instead of upside down like she tried to wear them the last time she ran out of her 'elixir of life'. Arpeggio was mostly doodling on the backside of his list, probably another tune for his little musical club that he had going under his administration. Top honestly was wondering when he will stop wearing his puke green checkered jacket over a white dress shirt and very dark green bowtie, it made a horrible combination with his light-gray pants and black shoes that reminded him of some kind of an old fashion statement that earned the speaker a tomato to the face. Apple Polish was actually marking the homework while pretending to be paying attention to whatever will happen, she already went through at least ten from this morning alone and apparently wasn't going to even bother to mark the performance.

'Why couldn't Miss Hackney be here today?' Top was actually substituting for her at the moment, mostly because she took a sick day and he owed her a favor for that one time with the frogs attempting to stage a rebellion after one of the students screwed up with the Motivation Spell. How could a rather simple and low-powered Spell that temporary removed fatigue and refreshed the person make all of them fall into a frenzy and attack the members of the facility he would never know.

Top looked over to the filly that was fidgeting before a long line of highly secured and reinforced metal boxed, seven containers that were mostly stored in the Castle's Treasury and left it only once a year now for this particular exam. He knew what was inside, and Celestia provided a full review of the results of the tests done to these particular pieces of the mystery. With a small spark of Magic from his horn, he made the top parts of these containers slid back and reveal the content that made Twilight's eyes go round and mouth to hang slightly open. Seven giant eggs that were at least twice a big as the ones from Dragons were sitting inside on the special cushions made out of hard cotton, Top honestly felt a shiver going down his spine whenever he so these things and it had nothing to do with their size. They were redicoulously resistant to Magic, even the simple act of levitating them was borderline impossible of not for the roundabout method of just levitating whatever they were put onto. Princess herself struggled to do so and had seriously to overpower the Spell to move them around, good thing that they weren't needed very often. Apparently, they were still alive and ready to hatch, but just weren't doing so for a reason unknown and every attempt to coax them and help the babies inside to get out were met with failure due to no Magic was actually able to get inside the eggs.

"You can begin whenever you're ready, Miss Sparkle." Arpeggio intoned without raising his head.

The girl nodded nervously and looked at the eggs, her face scrunched in concentration as her horn came alight with a light brilliant raspberry Magical Aura. Top could see how she pushed her Magic further and further, trying to grasp the eggs or at least touch them with her attempt of a Spell. She already knew Telekinesis, he saw her levitating her book in front of her face as she was waiting in the lobby so that meant that she had a good enough grasp on her Magic to waver it into a Spell. He suppose they could give her a minute or two before giving her a rather rehashed speech about not giving up and her need to excel and inform her that she passed, he was just happy that she was the last one today and he had some good back tea waiting for him in his office with his name on it.

As the clocked showed that only about fifteen seconds were left before Top would be in need of stop the girl that had a rather particular expression on her face that made her look more constipated than concentrated, something decided that the day was too peaceful and things were in need of being shaken up. As if the world itself had something against his tea time suddenly a huge shockwave tore through the building and a wave of rainbow colored energy shot through the sky, whatever it was it apparently scared the poor girl enough that her fight or flight response was triggered. Twilight's horn came alit with enough power to shine brighter than the sun and incredible surge of raw Magic was released from her, Top had only a split-second to throw up one of his more crude Spells to protect himself as all the Power, that the filly was letting out, shot towards the eggs. Apparently, she was so concentrated on the task that she decided not to bother with changing targets and in her panic dumped all what she had into her targets.

'This is not good.' Top cringed as he could feel the Magic running rampant through the room but all going into the seven eggs that were all but inert to all other attempts to awaken them. But somehow now they were drinking in Twilight's Magic without any sign of stopping and he could swear that they were even moving and cracking. Top shook the weird thought off and concentrated on the problem on hand, simply stopping the surge wasn't an option as he had no practice with that kind of Magic and it could harm her rather than help. The only other option was knocking her out, and while rather crude and potentially unpleasant it would stop the whole thing from escalating even more. But right before he could cast the Spell several things happened at once, and only one of them good in his opinion.

With a flash of golden light, Princess Celestia herself materialized in the auditorium.

With a cracking sound, all seven eggs suddenly hatched at the same time.

Twilight Sparkle collapsed unconscious on the floor as the threads of Magic were cut off by the Princess' own Spell.

Seven different screeching calls came from the newborns that now occupied the boxes, and none of them sounded happy.

Celestia sighed as she sat on the provided chair while Precise Stitch, her personal doctor that apparently never took 'No' for an answer looked over her hand and hummed. She already healed it all by herself, but the itch that was left behind and the fact that she was foolish enough to mention it in his presence immediately made her a patient under his care and with his ethics...

'I wish things weren't as complicated.' She sighed and removed a strand of her multicolored hair from her eyes.

"Is there anything you can do?" Asked Night Light as he looked at the prone form of his daughter on the floor. "Can you, I don't know, just teleport her out of there or something?!"

Celestia resisted the urge to groan, she understood the worry that the father was feeling at the moment for his daughter but it was a rather delicate situation and she really needed to concentrate. The mother, Twilight Velvet if she remembered right, was solely preoccupied with trying to glare the reason for their inability to reach their child into submission, the reason answered with a rather squeaky growl as it barred its teeth at the mare. Well, at least one of the reasons, six others were busy with making sure that other fronts were clear and nobody was trying to sneak up on them while they all grouped around Twilight's unconscious body.

"I'm sorry, but we're not aware what happened and how these newly hatched... younglings would react to her suddenly disappearing." Celestia shook her head. "I don't want to risk them becoming aggressive and attack others." She paused and glanced at her now intact hand. "At least more aggressive than they already are."

'Some strong teeth and jaws you have there for a newborn.' Celestia looked at the hatchling that was currently glaring at Twilight Velvet, she looked mostly like a Pony with the exception of clawed hands and feet and a rather long thick reptilian tail coming from her tailbone. She had long black hair and orange eyes that almost glowed as the young female... whatever she was, matched glares with the mare. On her back and right under her neck Celestia could see three strange coral-like bony growths, another bigger set grew right over the place where her tail came from and on the whole length of her tail she could see three small rows of the same growths. Also, while not as visible, Celestia noticed strange bony growths on the higher sides of her head on both sides right above the places where the ears should be.

Oh, and she was naked too.

The situation was getting from weird to downright ridiculous very fast and she honestly had no clue what was happening here. Having thousand plus years of experience didn't give you the ability to avoid curveballs or instantly find solutions to problems that literally came out of the left field. All her scientists and she herself were absolutely sure that the eggs were alive but inert and there was literally no chance that they would hatch. She placed them into the Treasury just so they would be safe, it wasn't like someone could actually do anything to them but she decided not to risk it with the whole mysterious appearance out of nowhere that they pulled on her. Nopony was able to actually decided just what was going to hatch from them, one thing everyone agreed on was that Equestria has never seen anything like that before.

"Well, Princess." Dr.Stitch finished examining her hand, his horn winking out and the sensation of small pins poking her skin stopping. "I can say that you did a passible job on patching yourself up, but this little bugger left some form of leftover energy when she bit you that looks almost like Aether. I would strongly recommend you will avoid any more exposure to whatever this is, I took all the readings I could without actually cutting off myself a sample as I thought you won't appreciate it."

Getting such a high praise from a normally dismissive stallion made Celestia chuckled a little, she honestly respected him for his rather casual disposition towards anypony who he took under his care and never bothered with sugarcoating anything. He didn't care just who is in front of him, she remembered when her nephew Blueblood was ill and she asked Stitch to look him over. While calling Blueblood 'half-filly bratty whiny rag' may have been a bit much it also was rather funny how his parents' faces looked like they ate a sour lemon and when they looked at her they saw that Princess Celestia was rather distracted by the new shiny clock they bought not long ago.

Shaking away the memory Celestia was more worried about the strange energy that he found, she knew Aether and it was what was literally woven into the World itself like a background Mana that anypony had inside their bodies. In some places the concentration was higher, in some lower, but the 'Blood of the World' was everywhere and sipped through the every pour of the Existence as she knew it. Celestia frowned and look at her hand, Aether poisoning wasn't actually possible as it was around them and manipulate it was simply impossible due to the sheer quantity of it as even she didn't possess the raw Power to wrestle against the tidal wave of the whole World. Using it by proxy was another matter altogether, some of the older defenses that were established to protect the Canterlot's Castle and the ones that may still be working in the Old Castle were set to slowly drain Aether to constantly power themselves up. For a living being to actually being able to weild Aether on any Level... was unnerving.

"Thank you for not chopping off a piece of me." She deadpanned. "And what can you tell me about Twilight Sparkle's condition?"

"Well, considering that these little beasties are all hovering over her like she's made of glass and from what her parents told me..." He shrugged as he packed some of his papers. "Exhaustion and maybe a minor backlash from the sudden Magical Surge, nothing a good sleep won't fix and she's already getting some here. Nothing I can do at the moment, maybe when the situation will have a lot less claws and teeth involved then I would be able to check for any internal damage..." He snorted. "But I can't see it happening any time soon, so... See ya!"

The short slightly chubby stallion in a brown suit and old case with a gray hair, short goat-beard and bald top of his head saluted and walked off towards the door. Nobody bothered to try and stop him, his reputation truly preceded him among the Royal Guards and anyone who interacted with Princess on the everyday basis. Nopony else was ballsy enough to knock her out with a sedative dart to give her check-up when she tried to reschedule it, Celestia made sure that none of the present Guards would as much as snort about the whole ordeal. The picture that Dr.Stitch now had of her on the floor with her tongue hanging out and her drooling on the floor and mumbling about too much light and too small cakes would forever be the reminded that Precise Stitch was and always will be a Field Doctor first before he became too old to run around all over the place.

As soon as the door behind the Doctor closed there was a bright bluish flash of light, that made the present Guards instantly come to alert but Celestia waved them off as her niece and her coltfriend appeared out of obviously hastily applied teleportation. She made to note to talk with Cadance about it, simply appearing like this could earn some problems later on and that spoke volumes about the training she made sure the Guards were going through that the two teen weren't already skewed by a spear or a sword from a newbie on a hair-trigger.

"Where is she?!" Shining Armor called out, panic in his voice and in contrast with him being barefoot, in pants put on backward and a sweater on bare torso also told Celestia just what the pair was doing when her message arrived. "Where is Twily?!"

Cadance was standing behind him, she wore a white shirt that, seeing the Cutie Mart on its center, obviously belonged to Shining, a pair of capri-pants and fluffy white bunny slippers. She also looked worried, it was understandable as she too bonded with the small filly that she babysits whenever her parents are away and Shining is busy in the Military Academy. Celestia made sure that the notes on his progress would be delivered directly to her, he looked rather promising and knowing Cadance and how much she held onto him... Well, it was all musings for the future and therefore can wait, unlike the miniature golden lightning that almost took Shining's head off if not for Celestia putting up a hastily constructed barrier in its way.

The culprit was another one of the hatchlings, this one was slightly taller and had long golden hair. Her hands and feet were clawed too and she also possessed her own set of unique traits, like two long rather thin in comparison to the other one tails ending in a spiky bony growth that reminded Celestia of pinecones. From the middle of her back grew a pair of golden wings that were a mix of draconic and bat-like traits including a clawed thumb growing out of the 'wrists', due to rather muscled built when folded the wings slightly reminded her of a pair of actual arms with incredably long fingers with thin golden membrane growing between them and a long claw on the ends. On the small hatchling's head she could see golden bony horns growing from the top, two long ones from the higher part and two sets of three shorter ones behind her ears. With a hiss the youth narrowed her metallic golden eyes and closed her mouth from which not a moment ago she launched an attack, Celestia actually felt as her barrier strained to stop the blast and she put enough Mana into it to have the same hardness as that of steel.

'This is... worrisome.' She dropped the barrier and looked at the agitated newborns. Sharp teeth bared, ready to attack but not daring to step away from the prone form of the filly on the floor. She was really considering the idea of simply teleporting them all, but there was always a chance that it could harm the babies and also Celestia had no reason to assume that they will remain hostile for long as they only attacked when someone tried to get near Twilight, one of them or were too loud.

"Cadance, Shining, it's good to see you two." She smiled. "I presume that you had a nice time together? I'm sorry for calling you out like that but the situation here is rather worrisome as you can plainly see."

Thet two teens blushed bright red, which made her smile only grow bigger.

"Shiny!" Night Light pulled his son into a hug. "Look what happened!"

"What?" 'Shiny' finally registered the presence of the seven bundles of questionable joy surrounding his sister. "What the?!"

"Oh, they are adorable!" Cadance squealed as she tried to get closer to the one that was closer to her.

This one actually was one of the calmer ones, she mostly stayed quite and studied everything around them with a wondering expression. Her short blond hair and blue eyes made her look far less threatening than the rest, and a pair of colorful butterfly wings growing from her back and two fluffy white antennas from the top of her head. She looked rather harmless and only cocked her head slightly to the side at Cadance's approach while others looked rather agitated but didn't move, and after a moment Celestia saw why.

Suddenly the fluffy antennas gained a rather ominous red glow, and before Celestia could do anything two thin beams of red energy shot towards her niece. She still wasn't sure what happened next, maybe it was luck or something else altogether, but Cadance simply managed to stumble from the sudden glow and waiver just out of the harm's way as the attack connected with the wall behind her and took off a large chunk of it. The newly made hole in the outer wall made the Alicorn of Love suddenly pale and scramble back as fast as she could, if not for a blind luck she would've been the one being hit and there was no chance she could've survived this.

"Wha?!" She latched onto Shining's arm as they looked fearfully at the seven children. "What was that!?"

"That was what I was trying to tell you about here, these seven were hatched by Twilight Sparkle from the seven eggs that were prepared for the exam." Explained Celesta dryly. "We're still not sure who they are, but nopony was let even near Twilight and they won't hesitate to attack no matter who will try to approach. I already tried to put them all under a Sleeping Spell, but they shrugged it off with no problem and I won't be risking putting too much Power into it due to the possibility of causing actual damage to their brains."

'And because I'm a bit rusty on it and there is a chance I will let some of it slip out and hit Twilight too.' Celestia inwardly winced, she really needed to pick-up on her own practice and get her skills up to snuff again. All these years of peace and quiet led to her capabilities deteriorating and she wasn't happy to find that hard way just how much. This whole incident was leaving a really sore taste in her mouth, but at the same time she was more inclined to count this as a good thing in the end as she finally managed to find out just what was inside those eggs that remained a mystery for so long. And if a slight glimpse of a newly acquired Cutie Mark that Twilight possessed now was any indication good things would keep coming in the long run, if only her parents would agree then she would even gain a student out of it.

Celestia mentally shook off the image of another bright and talented filly that vanished not long ago, this wasn't the time nor the place for such thoughts.

"Wait..." Cadance blinked and looked at the older Alicorn. "Those things that left you sleepless for weeks actually hatched?! And these little fillies came out?!"

"Not... exactly." Celestia frowned a little, trying to come up with a properly worded explanation. "They were hatched by Twilight's Magic, as she had a very powerful Surge in the middle of an Exam. I'm still not sure just what are they, but with how viciously they're defending Twilight here I think they may have imprinted on her as their parent. Don't take my word for it, I'm only guessing and therefore won't have any proof of that right now besides their strange behavior."

"And what exactly are we going to do about them?!" Shining stammered as he watched one fo the hatchling nudge Twilight and, when she didn't move, released a small whine.

"Well..." Celestia smiled at this question. "I already sent for our best expert, Professor Double Spiral will be here soon and I'm sure that he will be able to solve this problem."

"And who exactly is he?" Asked Twilight Velvet.

"He is..." The smile on Princess of the Sun's face grew.

"Marvelous!" A blond haired stallion with a narrow face and blue eyes exclaimed. "This is just fantastic!"

He was wearing light-brown pants, brown shoes, white shirt, and yellow vest under a white doctor coat. It took him two tries to actually enter the room as he managed to stumble on the first one and fall, making all of his notes and books that he brought with him skimmer around the floor. After he picked them all up and introduced himself, while almost gleefully eyeing the hatchlings he started the observation of them and was at it for the next two hours already.

"What exactly is marvelous?" Celestia sighed.

"See these growths on her back and her tail?" He pointed out. "They are actually pure crystal, and her organism is producing them as a part of her body! Incredible, she feels no discomfort with their presence and looks more like they are there for some kind of a purpose. I can't say for certain so far, but her inner biology should be revolutionary! This isn't a Magical Phenomenon, it's a purely organic process that lets her exist like that and actually live without any drawbacks. I'm not sure if her whole bone-structure if like that or not, I would need to perform some tests by myself to see just how she distribute the minerals inside herself to supply her own body with them to account for such additions."

The hatchling in question looked very similar to the first one, with the exception being the fact that on her forehead Celestia could see a golden bone-like growth with three sharp trident-like growths with the middle one having another two smaller ones on its sides. Her hair was also long and black, and her eyes were yellow instead of orange, but what made her look differently the most were crystal growths vertically coming out of her shoulders. Celestia could swear that they even glowed a little, but it was really hard to tell at the moment. The crystals also replaced the bony growths on her back and went down her spine right to her also leathery tail, which bore a spiky crystal tip. This one was much bolder in her actions as she gave out strange growls and little screeches as if challenging others to try and approach while she herself remained glued to Twilight's side.

"And?" Shining was sitting on the chair that he dragged from behind one of the tables of the auditorium.

"This is literally an unprecidental occurrence, the amount of scientific information we would be able to get by studying them is unmeasurable!" The man all but squealed with excitement. "Imagine all the potential discoveries! They literally came from eggs, and that would require for them to be..." He paused. "From the weight that was registered in the papers, and if we take into the account the possibility of their growth being somewhat accelerated due to the infusion of Magic..."

"Can we get somepony here that is actually useful?!" Called out Night Light as he glared at the ecstatic Professor. "All this one actually do is fawn over these things while my daughter is still there!"

"I understand that you're worried, but Professor Spiral is the best Specialist that can help us here." Celestia said diplomatically, even if she herself was getting annoyed with the lack of progress. "Professor, is there anything you can tell us about how to get Twilight out of there?"

"Oh?" The stallion blinked as he snapped out of his daydream. "The filly? Nah, these babies imprinted on her as their parent and they are protecting her from anypony that will try to come close." He shook his head and waved their concerns off dismissively. "I'm pretty sure that they will fight rather viciously for her, all we can do right now is wait for her to wake up and calm them down. I would also strongly advise bringing some food, as they are looking rather hungry and with the form and shape of their teeth I wouldn't put it past them to try and munch on somepony here if they will get hungry enough."

"... What?" Twilight Velvet almost choked out. "These things eat Ponies?!" Her question ended in a squeak.

"Well, for them right now we're meat." Spiral shrugged as he added another line to his notes on his notepad. "They're too young to be reasoned with, too smart to be tricked and too attached to the filly to be lead somewhere else. I'm not sure if they would even eat anything that we will bring them, it all depends on their level of intelligence and how they will perceive the food we will try to present them with. Honestly, it can go either way as they see us as aggressors no matter what we're doing right now."

"Can't we just bring them gems? Like with Dragons?" Asked Shining.

"Nope, the only one here that is even remotely resembling a Dragon is the blondie there, and I'm not sure if she can digest them." Professor frowned as he observed said hatchling. "Her teeth tell us that she's an obvious carnivore, maybe even an omnivore like Griffons, but that's debatable due to the fact that I didn't see them eat anything so far."

She growled as the others were still present, she wasn't sure what they were doing as she didn't understand them but they tried to get close to Mother and that was unacceptable. The Big One tried the first, she still could taste her blood in her mouth as she glared at the Loud One that glared back, she will not back away and let them get to Mother while she was vulnerable! She didn't know much from before she came from her egg, all was a blur of darkness and tightness all around her and it was really hard to think. Then came the Warmth and she could feel Mother, her call, and her presence were like a beacon and she answered without hesitation, breaking out and instantly going after Mother to get closer to the Warmth.

It was strange, she wasn't alone and others were here too as they also came to Mother. She could feel them, Sisters were also connected to Mother and felt the Warmth that she could feel in her mind coming from Mother. Something was wrong, Mother wasn't moving and others were nearby and tried to come near Mother. Mother was theirs! She and her Sisters won't let anyone take Mother! Her tail swished behind her as she bared her teeth at the Loud One and growled once more, they could try to come close but they won't succeed no matter what!

She didn't know what the sounds the others were making, they confused her and she didn't like that one bit! But she couldn't do much, and if they were to fight them there was a chance Mother will get hurt and there was no way she would let it happen! She could smell something in the air, the Loud One and the Blue One were smelling slightly similar to Mother. Were they kin? No, she didn't feel any connection to them so they were no kin and therefore they were intruders and therefore they will not come close! Mother was asleep, tired, but she and Sisters can feel that Mother's Warmth was returning and soon Mother will awaken. Mother was strong, not as strong as the Big One but Mother was young and the Big One was old so Mother will grow stronger with time, but before that she and Sisters won't let anything happen to Mother.

She released another threatening rumble to ward off the others from coming closer, she and Sisters couldn't leave until Mother would awaken and therefore they would need to stay alerted till then. Big One learned that coming closer would result in pain, Loud One and Blue One weren't going to try and the Smelly One was with Big One and wasn't paying any attention to them at all. She didn't care about the Smelly One, he wasn't a threat as he smelled of old age and weakness and will die fast if they were to fight. Her tail twitched in irritation, this wasn't Nest as this place didn't smell like Mother so they would obviously have to move from here soon and Mother will lead them to the Nest as soon as she will awaken. She hoped it would be soon, feeling Mother being weak was very unsettling and wrong and it made her feel agitated due to the lack of choices when it came to defending themselves and Mother. She flexed her claws and growled, Mother was in danger and she couldn't do anything and that was what angered her the most.

She looked around, her lips being pulled back to show her teeth. Whatever these things were, they looked kind of like Mother but smelled differently and there was no Bond that she could feel. Sisters were around, all of them were alright so there was good and she could feel her Power pulse inside her from the agitation. Big Sister bit Big One and was now stopping the Loud One from approaching, she herself was trying to gauge them to come closer so she and her Sisters would be able to attack them without getting away from Mother. She didn't know what other can do, Big One did something to heal the wound and it will make her hard to kill if she will attack or become too much of a threat to Mother.

Blue One also was a threat, she wasn't sure about the Smelly One as all he did was come in and never made any attempt to approach. He also smelled of age and weakness, if he would try to take Mother away it would be really easy to kill him and then move on onto more dangerous enemies. She could feel how Mother's Warmth was slowly growing and with each moment she was coming closer to awakening, which led to the problem that they were still surrounded and she knew not what Mother will do or will Mother be able to move or fight. She released another growl to see if any of others will answer, but so far they were too smart and stayed away from her and Sisters, while not bad it was also irritating that nothing was happening and they were literally doing nothing. She could feel a small amount of hunger starting to stir in her stomach, the Loud One look very appetizing right now and she was sure that her Sisters thought the same about the Blue One and the Shiny Ones near the hole in the wall. Big One was too strong, they would need to put down others before taking her down and she had a good idea just how to do it, but without Mother there was nothing she or Sisters could do right now.

Mother knew best, Mother was a Parent and therefore always knew best. She knew that Mother would know what to do, her instincts were telling her and the Bond reinforcing that statement with the welcoming feeling that she could feel coming from Mother. Big Sister was growling and getting more and more agitated, soon the fighting will start and Mother must be kept safe no matter what. She really didn't like the lack of guidance right now, and other Sisters weren't helping as they all were ready to fight but other than that they knew nothing else what to do to help. She hissed in anger as the Big One and Blue One made strange sounds, they were communicating and it wasn't any good that neither she nor her Sisters could understand them right now. Smelly One was also making noises and then he stood up and just walked towards the hole in the wall and disappeared, at least it meant one less problem to worry about at the moment. Still, it was irksome that they were so sure of their position, the crystals on her shoulders pulsed with Power in response to her irritation and worry.

She huffed and hissed, her segmented tail flicked behind her as the pincer on its end was all but itching to tear the flesh of the others in the vicinity. The golden floral pattern under her chest also itched to release its Power upon the pathetic creatures, she wasn't killing them now only because it would require her to leave her position near Mother and that was unacceptable. Upon hatching she could feel the Warmth of Mother flooding her with comfort and the sense of belonging, she knew that nothing will even be the same or anywhere near as wonderful Mother's presence and the Bond they shared along with Sisters. It was the knowledge that was a constant and unquestionable truth in her mind, Big Sister already tasted the blood of their enemy and Crystal Sister was trying to provoke the others to come closer so they will be able to kill them and be done with it.

She huffed, her own Power pulsing through her golden sharp horn as she glared at the Big One. She wasn't going to let the lack of aggression from the enemy stop her, they weren't kin and therefore they were enemies or food, or even maybe both at the same time. Mother will awaken and then they will kill the others here, it will be a good way to show Mother how strong she and her Sisters are against these others! Maybe Mother will let her destroy this place too? It smelt of the others and therefore couldn't belong to Mother so destroying it shouldn't be a problem! She shifted her wings a little, just in case she would need to use them for something as she had no idea how to fly as Mother didn't teach her that just yet. She released a screeching cry of alarm as in a flash of light two new others appeared nearby, Golden Sister launched an attack as a warning and a wall of light stopped it.

She felt irritated, the Big One did that as her horn glowed when the wall appeared. Big One was strong, Golden Sister was aiming to kill one of the intruders and Big One stopped the attack without even moving. She knew that she was strong, but now she could see that Big One was strong too and that made her feel the itch for a fight. Mother was here, maybe they should kill the others while she wasn't awake so she and Sisters would be able to show how strong they were to Mother when she will awaken? Mother's Warmth was getting stronger, and it only meant that Mother will soon be with them and they will kill the others and then leave this place to wherever Mother will decide to be best for them. The four growths on the back of her head weren't for show, she could feel Power pulse in them, and she was sure she could use them in a fight somehow, but simply had no clue how to do so and it will probably be the first thing she will ask Mother after the awakening. And how to fly, that will be the second most important thing.

She huffed, the Big One stopped her attack and she failed to kill the Squeaky One! She hissed as she closed her mouth, her attack was a pure reflex when she thought that it was an attack coming but at least she now knew that she could do it. Her wings twitched as she thought about trying again, but decided against it as she eyed the Big One with narrowed eyes. This one was dangerous, this thought made her lips stretch into a twisted grin as she thought about fighting a strong opponent like that and coming out victorious. Will Mother reward her for her victory? When Mother will awaken she will show off her Power, maybe Mother will let her burn this place down? Destroy the whole thing? The idea felt just right as her two tails swiftly waved behind her from the satisfaction that the idea brought to her.

She and her Sisters will meet these others and will defeat them, she could feel her Power surging through her body and with Mother's Warmth also growing they will annihilate the others without much of a problem! Big Sister already chose her opponent, Crystal Sister would probably want to face the Blue One and the Red Sister will surely go after the Big One herself. It would leave one of the two new intruders to her, she would prefer the Squeaky One as it felt wrong to leave him alive after she already failed to kill him once. Maybe Mother would let her destroy the place too as they will be leaving? It will be so much fun! Truly, there was nothing better than wiping the alien place away and then getting praise from Mother! Her mood suddenly soured as she watched the Squeaky One making these strange sounds others used for communication, were they preparing to attack already? It didn't bode well for her to fight near Mother when Mother couldn't fight back!

She felt a small sense of satisfaction as the one she was now calling the Stupid One got almost killed by Fluffy Sister, Stupid One thought that Fluffy Sister couldn't fight back and decided to attack her first and almost died! She prepared to fire her own attack but pasued as Stupid One latched upon the Squeaky One and made more noises while Big One answered. It was really frustrating how she couldn't understand what they were talking about! Another hiss escaped her mouth as she glared at the Stupid One, Fluffy Sister will kill her and she will make sure to hurt the Squeaky One a lot before killing him as his sounds were really annoying and the only reason she didn't try to tear his throat out was because he was too far away. Surely Big Sister won't stand for this? Soon they will attack and will tear these others apart and then she will burn this place to the ground and Mother will praise and her... and maybe hug her too! And maybe even cuddle? Yeah, the thought about cuddling with Mother sounded really good right now.

She growled as she watched the Stupid One backing away and latching on the Squeaky One, her wings fluttered slightly and she felt the Power behind her eyes spike but she held back. Fluffy Sister fought back and the attack failed, but the Stupid One survived and she won't let it happen again! Nothing threatened Mother or Fluffy Sister and survived, she realeased a hiss of irritation as she made sure to keep the Big One and the Supid One in her field of vision. Fluffy Sister will tear the Stupid One apart and she will be there to help, but the Big One stopped the warning attack from the Golden Sister and that made her a threat to them and to Mother. Well, she will show them what happened with the ones that decided to harm their Family and their deaths would be a show of Power that will make others back away and stay out.

All she needed was the start, Big Sister was already prepairing and Golden Sister looked close to attacking so it won't be long before she will be able to fight too! She will protect the Bond, Mother's Warmth won't be extinguished and they will forever remain together no matter what! She let out a small screeching call, daring others to attack and come closer so she would be able to fight without leavign Mother's side. It was frustraiting to simply do nothing, it made her feel caged and threatened as her whole being pretested against simply being present and not acting on her Instincts to protect Mother and Sisters. She watched as others made strange noises at each other, she knew not what it was about but soon another one appeared and was making things even worse with the sounds he made. Irritating One would be hers to kill, his calls made her head hurt and she knew that Sisters felt the same way about him.

Irritating One did not have the smell of fear as Stupid One had, and yet he did not come close to them. He was smarter than the others, Big Sister already bit Big One upon her attempt to sneak closer to Mother and probably harm her in some way. There were things that she could do about it now, but it wasn't the time and she could tell that Big Sister was waiting for something. She could feel as the Bond was vibrating with exitement from Golden Sister, she craved battle and destruction of everything and that was alright as long as she will be able to participate. Fluffy Sister was more curious about things around her, while Crystal Sister felt more frustrated than anything else. Red Sister was just feeling eager and waited for things to go off so they will be able to fight. Soon they will fight, soon they will clash and win...

Soon Mother will be with them and all will be right.

She looked at the Stupid One, was that an attack? She wasn't sure, maybe the Stupid One was trying to learn what they could do? She attacked the Stupid One because she got too close, and she missed too. It was bad and Mother won't be happy if she will fail, because failing was bad and therefore it will make Mother not like her. She suddenly felt something and instantly prepaired for a fight, the Irritating One was still talking and that only meant that it was not him who made this feeling, so that only left...

Big Sister suddenly growled loudly and that was all the warning other got, time for waiting was over.

She watched everything around her, the others were a threat and Sisters were reading for battle. Sisters will fight and she will reamin to protect Mother, this was what she thought would be the way thing will go.

[Energy Level: 100%]

She was ready to fight, Mother was precious and she will destroy all those who will try to harm her. Her Sisters were the same, as they will show no mearcy towards anyone attempting to strike Mother while they are alive.

There was nothing that will stop her from fighting to the best of her abilities, Loud One and Blue One were the first to react and therefore they will probably try to get to Mother First. She made sure to prepare to launch her own attack as soon as the battle will start.

She knew her duty, and as her vision turned red as she prepaired her own attack she knew that her Sisters knew it too. Her red eyes glowed slightly as she made sure to acquire a Firing Solution for every possible target that she could detect, there was no way she would not assist her Sisters even if she herself couldn't leave her own position.

She will not fail.

Author's Note

A/N: Honestly? This is basically an Experiment of Sorts. I'm trying to make something Unique here and, by accident, I stumbled upon the Pics that I used for this Story... And that's how this Story was born. It will include a lot of things from MLP-Lore and also a lot of Lore from Godzilla-Verse, and while some things may look kind of farfetched I will be trying to make it work in the end. My Goal here is to show a Story that will threat Canon as a Base and not an Absolute Rule that must happen no matter what. What do you think will happen with they will encounter Nightmare Moon? I know that the beginning looks kind of forced and awkward, but this is the best I could get with the literal ton of landmines for this Particular Type of Story.
Just give it a chance, please?
