Daughter of the night

A week has passed since my precious Twilight got entitled as the newest Princess of Equestria, we decided to wait until the novelty of a new official Princess died down to go back to our home in Ponyville. Chrysi decided to head back sooner for reasons she didn’t want to discuss at the moment, she just told us it was a ‘surprise’ of sorts at which she teleported after giving us a loving kiss.

Normally we would’ve teleported back like Chrysi had done or take one of the royal chariots, but this time we decided to take the Friendship Express to go back, our foals would probably get a kick out of the experience and we could use a nice relaxing trip in our private car after all the craziness of these past days.

We had a quick breakfast, after that I asked Twilight to pack some things as I nursed our foals.

“Twilight, can you pack our stuff up, while I nurse our foals?” I asked.

“Sure, Lucky. By the way, since your mother is now part of our herd, will she be coming with us?” Twilight asked.

“I would have to discuss it with her, but I think she might come with us.” I said.

At that moment my mother walked into the room, with a big smile on her face and said “Lucky, would it be possible for me to come with you, as long as my sister don't mind?”

“But, mother. What about your royal duties? Surely you can't abandon them.” I asked.

“That's true, Lucky. But I think we can figure something out. It's not like I have to be in Canterlot to perform my nightly duties. As for night court, I can easily travel to there for that.” Luna said.

“Ok, mother. But I think we need to talk to Tia about this, before we make a decision.” I said.

“Ok, Lucky. Would you like to go talk to her once you’re done nursing?” Luna asked.

“Sure, mother. It should only be a couple more minutes, until our foals are done feeding.” I said.

Once our foals were done nursing, I put them into their bed, so they can take their nap. Then my mother and I made our way to the throne room, so we can talk with Tia.

Arriving at the throne room, we could hear court was in session. So I made my way over to the throne and said, “sorry for interrupting court Auntie, but can my mother and I talk to you in private for a moment?” I asked.

“Sure, Lucky. Just give me a minute to address the court.” Tia said.

“Everypony, can I have your attention for a moment. Something has come up that I need to take care of. Court will take a thirty minute recess.” Tia said, addressing her court.

Once we got to Tia's personal study, we walked inside, and she casted a soundproofing spell on the room.

“Sister, would it be alright if I moved in with my daughter.” Luna asked

“Why, would you want to leave Canterlot, Luna?” Tia said.

“I want to move in with my daughter, because I'm now a member of her herd. Last week, she came into my room and I ended up getting her pregnant.” Luna said, while lighting her horn to show Tia the memory of that night.

“I can say, I'm surprised at you, Luna. I never thought you would end up breeding your own daughter. But by the looks of your memory, she went in there to snuggle with you. Then she noticed your morning wood poking her. I guess, Lucky wanted it to happen, that's why she backed up so you could enter her. You know, Luna, sisters are supposed to share. We used to share everything, including our bodies with each other. I would love to do that again. But yes, you can move in with your daughter.” Tia said.

“Tia, if you want, you can join our herd. I know Twilight has a thing for your flank, and so do I.” I said, with a smile on my face.

“Are you sure, Lucky? I don't want to impose.” Tia said.

“I'm sure, Tia. I know my herd won't mind if one more pony were to join us. Also, we will be heading back to Ponyville shortly. You can stop by anytime, Tia.” I said.

“Ok, Lucky. After court is over for the day, I'll head over to Ponyville.” Tia said, while smiling.

After everything was said and done, we were on our way towards the train station, the trip was as you would expect by being part of Royalty everypony we crossed ways with went out of their way to kneel in our direction showing respect to us.

This action made Twilight feel awkward, after all even if she has been a Princess since our marriage in some way or the other, she still wasn’t used to being treated as one.

I carried Solaris and Midnight on a pram big enough for three foals, Morning Star was supposed to be there with them, but Twilight decided to carry her on her back to enjoy the nice breeze of the morning.

This peaceful trip continued without issues, this was until twenty minutes later something happened.

“Hey! Get back here!” a mare yelling could be heard in the distance, followed by the rapid clop of hooves on the road behind us.

We turned around to see what this was about, a stallion wearing a hood came at full speed, a tan mare with a messy black mane and amber eyes was in hot pursuit behind him. We didn’t have time to react as the stallion passed between us, in his rush he collided with Twilight making her fall and Morning Star got ejected from her back into the air.

“My baby!” Twilight screamed in terror as her baby filly flew through the air, in our shocked state we didn’t think about catching her with our magic.

The mare was the next to pass by us, she jumped high up and caught Morning Star on her front legs, but she wouldn’t be able to land safely while carrying the filly. Instead she turned mid air and collided with the hard road back first to cushion the impact on Morning Star.

When our senses came back to us we rushed towards the mare who laid there wincing and groaning from the pain. Our concern faded away some as we heard Morning Star giggling.

The mare slowly sat down, she was careful to not annoy the baby, “you’re a brave filly aren’t you?” she said with a soothing voice and tickled the filly’s belly.

Twilight approached this unknown mare, “Morning Star!” she called for her baby.

The mare stood up and started turning around to look at us, “don’t worry, she’s fine, are you her…” as she was about to finish her sentence she froze for a moment after looking at Twilight, “mother?”

“Yes, yes! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” Twilight hugged the mare out of happiness.

“Y-you’re welcome,” the mare said as she hoofed Morning Star back to her mother.

“Once again thank you for saving my little Morning Star, how could I repay you, miss…?” Twilight offered a reward to the mare.

“I’m Lucky Star,” the mare introduced herself with a quick bow, “and it’s not necessary, I couldn’t even think about receiving a reward for something like this, seeing that happy smile on her face is reward enough, I just wished that thief didn’t get away with my saddlebags,” Lucky Star said with a shake of her head.

“Mother, would you mind going after that thief? I'd hate to see him get away with Lucky Star's saddlebags.” I said.

“Sure, Lucky. I can do that for you.” Luna said, as she chased after the thief.

Lucky Star looked at them with surprise, “you didn’t have to do that, I didn’t want to involve other ponies into my problems…” she looked down at the road below.

Twilight put a supporting hoof on Lucky Star’s back, “it’s only normal to help a friend, don’t worry Luna will get your saddlebags back.”

“Thank you… umm…” Lucky Star stopped as she didn’t know how to address her.

“Twilight, Twilight Sparkle. Nice to meet you, Lucky Star,” Twilight introduced herself to her new friend. She motioned to Lucky Rose’s direction “and this is my wife, Lucky Rose. Daughter of Princess Luna.”

Both Lucky’s exchanged greetings, but Lucky Star was confused by something, “did you just said wife? But… you have three fillies… and both of you are mares, how did you…?”

“I'll explain it Twilight. You see, Lucky Star, I'm both a mare and a stallion. I can impregnate other mares, and I can become pregnant. I was born with both genders, just like my mother. I guess, in a lot of ways I'm just like my mother, and I wouldn't have it any other way.” I said.

“Oh, alright that makes sense, it’s not something I could say I see regularly but I get what it entails. Not that I know much about stuff around here, since I’m trying to remember why am I here to begin with,” Lucky Star said as she rested her right cheek on a hoof.

“What do you mean by that?” Twilight asked with ever growing curiosity.

Rubbing the back of her head with a hoof Lucky Star stared at them nervously, “this can sound strange… but… I don’t know how or why am I in Canterlot… the last thing I remember is a town named Ponyville.” She sat down and tapped her chin a few times, “I’m not sure if there’s an answer there, but it’s my only lead… maybe if I go to Ponyville I’ll remember more about myself, that’s why I was going to the station to buy a ticket… but then the thief happened.”

“It's ok, Lucky Star. We will help you. Don't worry about your saddlebags, my mother will catch the thief and return them to you.” I said, while giving her a hug to comfort her.

Lucky Star returned the hug, “thank you, and once again I’m sorry for the inconveniences.”

“I think we should be going to the station,” Twilight suggested.

It only took us about ten minutes to get to the train station. Once we arrived, I saw my mother waiting for us, with a saddlebag on her back.

“I believe this belongs to you. Lucky Star.” Luna said, while levitating the saddle bag to her.

“Yes. Thank you so much, Princess Luna.” Lucky Star said, as she placed her saddlebag on her back.

“You're welcome, Lucky Star. You won't have to worry about that thief ever again. I sent him to my sister, and she placed him in the dungeons.” Luna said.

When our train arrived, we boarded our private car to relax. It would only take a couple hours to get to Ponyville, but it's a couple more hours we can spend with our new friend. As the train started pulling out of the station, we decided to go to the snack car and get some food before returning to our car. After we all had our snack, we decided to relax for the rest of the trip. But we ended up falling asleep with Lucky star in between my mother and me.

Lucky Star looked through the window at the scenery outside, it filled her with peace. She may not know why or how she managed to get here, details were blurry, her only clues were the town of Ponyville and a picture of her alongside Twilight, five other ponies and a blue haired bipedal creature with cat features. As she thought about this, she stroked the mane of the sleeping princesses surrounding her, helping them sleep peacefully.

“Huh, this isn’t that bad after all…” she said as the their destination was getting closer and closer.
