Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Everypony in Celestia's castle was running around, getting ready for the moment this would either make or break Celestia's respect for all of Equestria. Celestia had woken up at midnight, much to Luna's surprise, and ordered the guard's to send out scrolls and letters to every resident in Equestria, telling them to show up at the castle if they wernt busy with any kind of family emergency. She had told the maids to dress Timidthy in the most formal tux at thier disposal, she told the cooks to make something light for Timidthy's breakfast, just in case, she had told the guard's to make sure if anything we're to happen, to protect Timidthy at all cost. Timidthy who had been in the middle of the choaus almost shrieked when the maids lifted him and tried to put the tux on him, the tux in question was a lime green and a white bow tie decorated the neck of it, the maids not only had grabbed Timidity but after realizing all of Equestria would see him they gave Timidly a bath, combed his coat,mane, and tail, and THEN put the tux on him!

Then the chef's came in put a bib on Timidthy and gave him only 1/4 out of the milk in his milk bottle, Timidthy looked a bit disappointed at this he didn't understand why everyone was swaddling him, checking him, making sure he looked nice, this was different from every other day he'd lived with his mother. By the time all of that was done not only had two hour's passed but a small crowd of ponies had gathered outside the balcony of the castle, Celestia and Luna we're wearing thier best dresses, while Luna had a calm expression on her face, Celestia looked nervous,

"It's going to be okay sister." said Luna

"I hope your right." said Celestia dread and concern drowning out any perfesonalism she had in her voice.

Celestia levitated Timidthy and walked towards the balcony, which now the crowd had almost tripled in size everypony who was anypony was going to be here for this momentous occasion.

Timidthy still looked confused as Celestia's grip on him seemed tighter then usual, Timidthy flickered his ears for a moment, he could swear he heard voices, voices he did not recognize.

As Timidthy let the voices seep in his eye's widened in shock and horror, he looked at Celestia his eye's filled with terror, Celestia only looked back

"I'm sorry Timidthy, but they have to know." said Luna

Timidthy gulped he felt tears well up in his eye's, he tried to break free from his mother's grap so he could hide away forever but it didn't work.

Celestia had just let her front hooves touch the balcony as Luna used her magic to lower the moon and as Celestia raised the sun, the crowd was blinded from seeing Timidthy for a moment but as the blinding effect fadded the crowd went silent. Nopony spoke as Timidthy was there for everypony to see, Timidthy started shaking uncontrollably and felt an even stronger urge to cry, this was like living his worst nightmare, Celestia's wings tensed up, Luna felt short of breathe, while the cooks, maids, and guards looked pale. Finally after an eternity one of the member's of the crowd spoke, in fact the one who spoke was Miss.Cheerilie

"An alicorn prince, that's amazing!"

The crowd cheered Luna, the maids, guard's, chef's, and especially Celestia let out a sigh of relief, Timidthy still looked a bit nervous but other then that he was happy.

"Wait," said another mares voice whitch silenced the crowd, the stepped out from the crowd and the mare was none other then Spoiled Rich "Not that it's anypony's business princesses but where did you find this colt especially since he's an alicorn." she spoke her voice having a suspicious tone.

The maids, guard's, chef's, Luna, Timidthy and Celestia all held thier breathes again, panic daring to cloud at thier mind's, Luna nudged Celestia, Celestia looked at Timidthy, then the crowd and took at breathe in and out "Timidthy was not born," she said her voice was shaking a little,

The crowd gasped and stared at Timidthy like he was an alien of sorts

"I made him with a magic spell."

The crowd's eye's widened,

"And he's my son and to him I'm his mother,"

The crowd's mouths just gaped open at this moment,

"I wanted and had to tell all of you about him, and if you all don't like him just because he's different, then you have no place in my kingdom." Celestia finished and the crowd remained silent all except for a different voice of a mare as she stepped through the crowd the mare was Miss. Cherry Jubbalie,

"You would really risk everything just for that colt?" she said

"Yes." said Celestia making sure to sound as intimidating as possible

"Well then I say that by magic or not, Timidthy is your son and I welcome him and his offspring to my home, business, and to all of Equestria!" said Cherry Jubbalie excitedly, and the rest of the crowd joined in cheering and chanting "Welcome, Prince Timidthy!"

The maids, chef's, guard's, Luna, and Celestia smiled, even Timidthy gave a sheepish smile as red blush tinted his face.

'Everything turned out fine.' thought Celestia, but little did they know a certain spoiled mare would not
leave Timidthy alone, not until he was good and dead.

Timidthy was elated, the crowd had loved him, no angry mobs had chased after him, nopony burned his mother to the stake and beat him until he was limp and lifeless, nothing bad had happened! Timidthy was in HIS bedroom this time, he hadn't even know that the maids, guard's, and chef's worked on it as he stayed with Celestia, his room was huge and the walls we're painted a very pale green, the floor was made of marble and if the sun shone just right on the floor then it could make the intrie room look like the crystal empire.

He had a big bed too but just around the rim of the bed we're these thin gold bar's, just a safety procation to make sure Timidthy didn't fall out of the bed in his sleep, thier was an chestnut coloured table by his bed ,and right next to it layed a big bookshelf filed with ,Celestia knows, how many book's! Timidthy smiled as he levitated himself into the bed Celestia came in and they both hugged each other lovingly for now everything was perfect.
