Fizzlepop woke in a white room with several nurse ponies running around frantically while doctors were surrounding a bed. I asked “Um what’s going on?”

One of nurses blinked “After your surprise magic burst I’m surprised you recovered so quickly.”

Fizzlepop gasped “Is everypony alright?”

A voice shouted “I’m fine.”

Fizzlepop frowned as one of the doctors was kicked into the wall. “Do you need help?”

The Nurse smiled nervously “No we’re fine just the princess isn’t being very cooperative right now.”

She trots over to see Princess Celestia kicking at the nurses despite her broken legs. Then to the shock of the doctors a purple glow surrounds the Princess who is now completely immobilised. Fizzlepop frowned “Please Princess they are trying to help you.”

Princess shouted “I have to go; I have a busy schedule to fulfill. In two hours I have to meet with the Griffon Ambassador.”

I frowned “Can we get this done within that time?”

The doctors said “Barely but only if she stops struggling.”

Celestia huffed “Fine but make it quick.” Fizzlepop watched as they worked on Celestia putting her broken legs in casts. After one and a half hours Celestia was sitting in a wheelchair, her legs bound.

Celestia smiled “It’s good to see my personal student doing so well.”

Fizzlepop eyes widened “Personal Student!?”

Celestia smiled “We’ll discuss it on the way.” She frowned as her horn fizzled.

Fizzlepop gasped and lit up her own horn to push the wheelchair. She nervously trotted by, Celestia showing the young filly the way to the meeting room. Celestia smiled “You are quite powerful, the most powerful unicorn filly I’ve met.”

Fizzlepop sighed “I’m nothing special, I couldn’t even control my magic.”

Celestia frowned “Don’t worry about it, even I had a magic burst when I was a foal.” Fizzlepop stared at Celestia as if she grew a second head. Celestia smiled “Your magic burst was much stronger than mine was when I was a foal. I decided to teach how to control that power as Starswirl taught me and my…” Celestia stopped for a second.

Fizzlepop frowned “I understand you have you secrets Princess, don’t worry about it I don’t need to know.”

Celestia smiled warmly “Thanks Fizzlepop, still please call me Celestia. I don’t need all the formality.”

Fizzlepop smiled “Okay Princ-Celestia.”

Celestia laughed “You’ll get used to it.” The pair entered a room where a big burly griffon stood.

The Griffon grinned “Oh how the mighty Celestia has fallen.” He drew a sword “imagine the praise I would receive on taking your head.”

He darted forwards only to bounce of a purple shield and then in the next moment was surrounded by several magically constructed kitchen knives the size of his body. Fizzlepop snarled “Give me one reason not to kill you right now.” The Griffon leaked on the floor.

Celestia smiled “I appreciate the gesture Fizzlepop but you can stand down.” Fizzlepop frowned as she dissipated her knives but maintained the shield.

The Griffon begged “Mercy please.”

Celestia laughed “Diplomat Swifttalon, relax we have diplomacy to discuss.”

Swifttalon frowned as he regained his composure “Well we had a bombardment of purple magic in Griffonstone coming from here yesterday. It also was spotted heading both toward the Badlands and Mt Aris by our spies.”

Fizzlepop grinned nervously “That may have been my fault.”

Swifttalon raised an eyebrow. Celestia smiled “How do you think I ended up like this, I was looking for my personal student in that building yesterday.”

He frowned as he looked at the building “What happened?”

Celestia smile didn’t waver “Well my personal student had a magic burst yesterday, which is probably what hit Griffonstone.” Swifttalon’s jaw dropped as he stared at Princess and Fizzlepop looking for sign of deception, his eyes widened as he realised there was none. He collapsed to the ground in the puddle he made earlier.

Fizzlepop cried “I hurt others, I’m a monster.”

Celestia sighed as she wrapped a wing around her “No you’re not a monster; you are just not in control I will teach you control. That construct spell was very impressive by the way; I think I will have to push you quite hard for you to be constantly challenged.” Fizzlepop nodded as her tears flowed.

The next morning Fizzlepop was busy reading books in the library. Celestia was rolled in by a guard she smiled “I’m glad you taking time to learn.”

Fizzlepop smiled “What can I say other than I love magic?”

Celestia sighed “I can’t begin doing official lessons for a week due to the incident, my magic's too weak so I expect you to do your own study in the meantime.”

Fizzlepop asked “Um, would it be okay if Twilight and Sunburst visit.”

Celestia smiled “I’ll arrange something, if you’re lucky they may turn up today.”

Fizzlepop bounced up and down excitedly “I get to see my friends.”

Celestia smiled “Well I have to recover, so I’ll see you tomorrow Fizzlepop.”

Fizzlepop smiled “I’ll be happy to see you again Celestia. I can’t wait for my first lesson.” Celestia smiled as the little filly was comfortable, she then sighed as she thought (Dear Sister if you were only here to see this.)

Fizzlepop meanwhile was reading book after book in the library memorising each spell. She frowned she wanted something special; a lot of these spells were too simple, having memorised each one. She asked the Librarian “Is there something a little more complex, these spells seem a little rudimentary at times.”

The pale stallion with a bookmark on his flank said “There is this book on hoofcasting, very few unicorns even attempt this.”

Fizzlepop smiled “Can I take this book with me I’ll return in a few days.”

The Librarian grinned wickedly “I’ll come to your room if it’s not back and there will be consequences.” Fizzlepop grinned nervously as she exited the building with the book.

A gruff guard said “I’ll escort you to your room.” It turned out this room was a tower in the castle. Fizzlepop huffed as she entered the room, it was large and full of books, and it had a large bed in a loft. The guard frowned “Be careful this room once belonged to Starswirl himself.”

Fizzlepop’s eyes widened as the guard left, she began practising the spell she read once after the other. She found them all too easy, she smiled as he stared at the book she borrowed “What are you hiding?”

She opened and smiled at the first page, she frowned as she thought (It relied on her ability to stand on her hind legs, this would be tricky.) She tried to lift her own weight onto her hind legs only to fall flat on her face. She moaned “Ow that hurt.”

Fizzlepop heard a knock on her door, she opened it her magic only for Twilight to wrap her in a hug. Sunburst frowned “Slow down, Twilight, Fizzlepop needs her space.”

Twilight smiled sheepishly “Sorry about this.” Twilight then realised “You are five right? Well why you are slightly taller than me.”

Fizzlepop said “My grandfather on my father’s side is an Earth Pony, it’s why he and I are so big.”

Sunburst looked at her flank and gasped “You’ve got your cutie mark.”

Fizzlepop jumped up and down as she noticed the 5 pointed purple star on her flank “I got my cutie mark, I got my cutie mark.”

Twilight panicked “You have your Cutie Mark, which means you don’t want to hang with us anymore and then because you’re the Princesses student nopony will want hang out with us then we’ll be hated by everypony and then we’ll turn evil and…..”

Fizzlepop frowned “It’s just a Cutie Mark I won’t hate you two because you don’t have one that would just be silly. Come on let’s have fun, you two like books and magic right.”

Twilight smiled “Yep, let’s practise some magic and fix up some old archaic spells.”

Sunburst smiled “Let’s do it.” The trio went long into the night correcting old spells and all 3 of them learned quite a few spells through their session.
