Chapter 2

"Don't worry Mr. Changeling does not intend to hurt you, maybe you should offer him a hug?"

Twilight looked at her mother for a moment and walked over to a black plushie with blue eyes. She hesitated for a moment.

"Go ahead ... Do not be afraid" her mother supported Twilight, smiling to her.

Twilight slowly began to approach, until her eyes and plush were at an equal height. Twilight, without thinking, hugged the soft toy as much as she could.

"Bravo!" her mother applauded, after a moment she looked at her watch.

"What does your father do in this shop for so long?" she said slightly grimacing. Twilight shrugged and went back to cuddling the plushie. The doorbell rang, and without losing strength, she ran to the door and opened it.

"Where were you?" she said with a malicious expression on her face.

"Anger for beauty is harmful." he joked.

"Keep these jokes for later ... Lavender is hungry." she said while raising Twilight on claws.

"It's good that I bought a ground apple in a jar." he answered. Twilight saw the image of Applejack in front of her eyes.

"Apples or not, she must eat something" she said giving Nestling to her husband, after which she went to unpack the shopping.

"I still bought some meat to goulash." he added. "I hope Lavi does not mind" he looked at Twilight with a smirk, after which he put her back on the nest and kissed her on the forehead.

"Thank Celestia" she took out the meat and put it in in the fridge, then she came to her husband.

"Do not you think we would start teaching Lavi flying?" she asked him.

"She is still too young ... She should rest more"

"If you say so"

After these words, "Lavender's" mother went to cook a meal. Her father knelt beside his daughter and whispered in her ear.

"I will show you someday how our beautiful Griffonstone looks like"

Father lay down next to her and hugged her, which caused confusion in the barely conscious Twilight. When Twilight regained consciousness, she began to smile at him, and affectionately kissed him in the chest. His purple eyes were very beautiful, but his caramel feathers would win the beauty contest. However, the voice from the kitchen again "woke her" from her thoughts.

"Would you like Goulash or Bigos. I think that you would love to eat goulash" her mother asked her husband.

"I do not love eating goulash as much as you" he complimented her.

"This is a good answer" she blushed, and she went back to making dinner.

Twilight rolled her eyes when she heard their compliments, and she started babbling to distract her father. He nuzzled his daughter's head, then he got up and carried Twilight on a high chair, after which he closed it so that the Nestling would not fall from a great height. After a while her father returned with something reminiscent of banana yogurt, and he began to hold the spoon in front of the Nestling's eyes.

"There goes an airplane" he chirped happily. He put the spoon into the yogurt and began to feed it towards Twilight. Nestling looked at the terrible-looking substance and hesitated slightly before opening her beak. When Twilight swallowed yogurt, it turned out to be quite good, and she eagerly ate the second spoon. Her beak was still too small, so she did not notice that yogurt was running from that place.

Her father saw it and took out a handkerchief, and began to clean her beak in concentration, after which he threw the handkerchief into the trash.s

"Who is dirty eater?" he asked happily.

Twilight blushed, then laughed nervously, because she did not expect that someone would have to feed her.

"I almost forgot ... I would like to introduce someone to you" her father said and flew to the second floor.

Twilight, looking out the window, noticed that her and her parents' house was a treehouse, and on the second tree opposite her was the second treehouse. Twilight guessed it was their neighbors. Her father came back carrying a cage with ... A SNAKE. It happened to her that her parents were breeding a snake, the most hated animal of her. His orange scales and small size indicated that he was an corn snake.

"Charon, say hello to the new family member" he said slowly opening the cage. The snake, after noticing that it is free, began to approach the frightened Nestling. Expecting the snake want to strangle her, Twilight closed her eyes as her blood flowed quickly to her heart. Thinking that after her, and not knowing that she was alive, Twilight opened her eyes and noticed that Charon was hugging her with his tail.

"Do not be afraid of Charon ... He is a friendly serpent" Her father stated, trying to calm down his child.

"What the hay are you doing???" Her mother had (and it seemed to her) react in time. She quickly removed Charon from Twilight and put it back in the cage, and she took it upstairs. Her mother wore an apron.

"Did you ever think Charon could hurt her" she asked furiously

Her husband nodded.

Her mother, stopping her anger, said "You are sleeping on the couch today"

'Bu-" he tried to protest

"No buts" she answered "You have put our only daughter in danger"

"BU-" he still tried to explain.

"I wanted her to feel safe and not feel like everyone was an enemy here"

"BU-"

"Just shut up already" she giggled "You'll still sleep on couch" she added

Her dad, with his head down, flew to bring a quilt and a pillow. Her mother for a while looked at Twilight.

"Are you alright?" she checked if there were any wounds.

Twilight nodded

Suddenly, Twilight and her mother felt the smell of burning.

"GOULASH!!" her mother quickly ran to the kitchen to "save" the meal.

Twilight felt embarrassed when her parents forgot to take her out of the chair.
