Fizzlepop heard a knock on her door, Celestia was standing there with Cadence. She smiled “Cadence.”

Cadence smiled “I’m glad to spend time with you.”

Fizzlepop grinned “Me too.” As they trotted out she saw her brother glaring at her, he was tall his head reaching Celestia’s neck in height, his deep blue coat, his dark green eyes and deep black mane.

Celestia raised an eyebrow “Storm Blast, be civil.”

He trotted to the front of the group and Fizzlepop trotted up to beside Celestia. Celestia asked “Why is your brother avoiding you?”

Fizzlepop cried “I don’t know alright, he just looks at me like I’m a monster.” Storm Blast scowled at her and she shrunk back. Celestia wrapping a wing over Fizzlepop, the group arrived at a simple donut shop. Fizzlepop asked nervously “Um why are we at a donut shop?”

Cadence smiled “We love this place, it where we go when we need to get away from the madness that is being a Princess.”

Celestia commanded “Storm Blast wait outside!” Storm Blast glared at Fizzlepop before standing at the side of the door. Fizzlepop shuddered at his glare as she entered the shop. Cadence and Celestia shared a worried glance as they trotted in after her.

Cadence shook her head “Don’t worry about him, we want you to enjoy this little trip of ours.”

Cadence magically covered both her and Fizzlepop’s ears as Celestia shouted “DONUT JOE!”

Donut Joe shouted back “PRINCESS, YOU WANT THE USUAL?!”

Celestia shouted “YES AND A FOAL SIZED PLATTER!”

Fizzlepop raised an eyebrow “Why did you cover my ears?’

Cadence giggled “Celestia is quite loud when interacting with Donut Joe.” Donut smiled as she saw Cadence and scribbled something down on the order sheet before heading out the back.

Celestia turned to Fizzlepop “How long has you brother been acting this way?”

Fizzlepop sighed “Ever since I returned from my uncle’s a week before I became your student.”

Celestia frowned internally (I hope nothing is wrong.) She smiled “I’ll figure out why and help you two fix this.”

Fizzlepop smiled “Thanks Celestia.”

Donut Joe grinned as he brought a large platter out, Celestia took it and he then brought out a small platter which he placed in front of Fizzlepop before bringing out Cadence’s small plate. Celestia raised an eyebrow “Why are you eating such small servings?”

Cadence smiled “I don’t want to put on weight.”

Fizzlepop grabbed a chocolate donut and took a bite, her eyes watered “This is beautiful.” She savoured each bite, she smiled after she finished her platter “I love this place.”

Cadence smiled “I’ll bring you here again one day, just don’t tell anypony. Donut Joe doesn't want too much publicity.” Fizzlepop nodded and they exited the building, Fizzlepop felt uncomfortable as they trotted back to the castle as her brother’s glared fixated on her back.

Celestia waited until she had brushed her teeth and then smiled as she laid her on the bed. She then frowned and cast a simple scanning spell, she noticed all of her organs were in the right place but her legs they were made of clay, and were covered in runes. She instantly knew what is was, she trotted out only for Storm Blast. He frowned “You know what she is?”

Celestia nodded “She is a golem but she doesn’t know it and she is my student no matter what.”

He scowled “You’re fine with this.”

Celestia turned to him “You should too, whatever happened to your real sister she abandoned you, don’t take it out on her.”

Storm Blast sighed “Maybe you’re right, it’s just tough knowing that my birth sister is still out there somewhere.”

Celestia frowned “Yes but she’s still you're sister, she doesn’t know she is a golem.”

Storm Blast nodded “I will try but you should tell her sooner rather than later. Also she is a dark magic golem.” Celestia’s eyes widened, Storm frowned “It is my Uncle’s work, I know it.”

Celestia frowned “Why didn’t you tell me? Dark mages are dangerous.”

Storm Blast frowned “Do you remember Shadow Strike?”

Celestia nodded “He was captain of the dark mage hunters and the first of your family to serve me.”

Storm Blast said “He was a dark mage himself and hunted the bad ones.” Celestia’s jaw dropped as he trotted away, she had a lot to think about that night.
