That moment you realize you're awake.
A knock on the new door.
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe house.
It was 2 stories in height. It was designed to be symmetrical. The first floor designed as a giant square, 4 walls in total, not counting interior walls dividing the kitchen from the living room. The second floor was just a clone of the first just stacked up like brick on another brick. Except the second was divided into four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a hall way with two bed rooms on either side of the hallway. One of the bathrooms was only accessible from inside the largest bedroom. The other was dividing two bedroom on the opposite side of the hall. Three of the four bedrooms would be used at all times. The biggest or master bedroom would be Celestia's and Seethe's. Two of the other three would be for the kids. The final would be a fully loaded guest bed room, complete with basic reading material on a book shelf, a sofa, and small table in front of the sofa. Up a small set of stairs at the end of the hallway that went to the highly insulated attic, there was a large supply of books, arranged in a library set up.
Celestia looked over the house's living room, and smiled, furniture was still being moved in by moving crews.
"It's barley a four hundred meter walk to the castle." Seethe stated "Good school district, quick walk to the grocery store, and finally good bars and liquor stores nearby." He finished looking over the sky blue wallpaper of the living room and then back to the front door where Twilight and her five friends were just entering.
"And best of all, this house. Is only........eighty thousand bits!"
"Wow." Rainbow Dash said in awe. "This place is awesome."
"Ah agree." Applejack said looking out a window over the sink in the kitchen and seeing the fenced in backyard. "Ya'll got a great backyard for livin' in Canterlot and all."
"Yeah, I had to actually buy out a lot behind this one and have it excavated and grass planted down." Seethe explained. "I've had this under a cover of secrecy for months."
"This is incredible." Fluttershy stated out of sheer awe for the incredible house.
"Darling, I just saw the master bedroom." Rarity said coming down the stairs. "That was the most incredible bed room. Prince, you sure know how to make a bedroom."
One of the movers came down the stairs and announced: "Alright everything set up to your liking, sir." he said walking to Seethe.
Seethe smiled. He levitated a tip of 20 bits to the mover. "Thanks, pal. You can grab a drink from the fridge in there if you like and go."
The mover stallion went into the kitchen and took a beer with him as he left. As he shut the door behind him, Seethe muttered: "Shoulda' probably told him to not touch my beer."
Seethe looked to Celestia and smiled when he saw she seemed to like what she saw.
"You've been quite, sweet cheeks. Do you like it or are you smiling out of anger?" He asked, kidding.
"This is wonderful, Seethe." She smiled to him as she answered and then continued "So, this is where Lightning Flicker and Spring Song will grow up?"
"That was the plan." Seethe said.
"Well you sure made it to my liking. You said it was only eighty thousand bits to construct?" Celestia asked, looking in the kitchen.
"To construct yes. To buy out the 2 lots and tear down the previous homes.....it ranged around two hundred thousand." Seethe explained rubbing the back of his neck "Kinda, drained my bank account a bit, but I can still send both the kids through college and still have enough to feed myself......one burger."
"Dang." Rainbow Dash said.

20 minutes later.
"Seethe! This kitchen is amazing, darling!" Rarity called from the kitchen.
"Brand name, best quality, wares. The silver is real silver, the stove is the best kind, and the microwave has the best power and highest safety standards." Seethe said remembering how he had gone out of his way to make sure the house was loaded with the best things.
"Nice!" Pinkie explained. "How long does it take to make a cake in that thing?"
"I don't think the sales stallion mentioned that. I'm pretty sure he said a well-done steak was like twenty minutes." Seethe said as he changed Spring Song's soggy diaper on the main five seat L shaped sofa in the living room. Lighting Flicker laughed as Celestia dangled a little toy just within his grasp. It was a large twelve inch purple dragon toy.
Lighting Flicker swiped at it with his fore hooves and gave a few laughing gurgles.
"Here you go take this to the trash can in the kitchen for me." Seethe said giving the soggy diaper to Applejack who didn't really want take it and back away from it. "Fine. Don't take it. Twilight?" Seethe asked dangling the soggy diaper before Twilight's face.
"No thank you." Twilight said pushing it away from her face.
Instead of insisting she take it Seethe just said: "Fine. Don't take it. I'll just put it right here and you can walk it to the kitchen whenever you like."
He draped it on her horn. Piercing part of the fabric so the horn would hold it. Keeping the moist part inches from Twilight's face. She made a look of complete disgust and then magically took the diaper off her horn and walked it to kitchen where Rarity and Pinkie were cooking a lunch of sorts. Pinkie and Rarity burst from the kitchen. Pinkie carrying a platter with cake on her back. Rarity carrying a larger platter with a magical aura, the platter held 3 types of foods. Small sandwiches, fancy alcoholic drinks, and of course potato chips.
Sandwiches, drinks, chips, and CAKE. A meal for kings and queens every where.
As the food platters were set upon the table there was knock on the door.
"I got it." Seethe said, getting up and walking over to the front door. He looked through the peep hole, and saw a panicked Luna.
He opened the door and a burst of panicked toned words came at him like a tidal wave.
