Equestria's Purge

Zinc Brightstar sighed as he sat in his room. He was wondering what kind of school work he’d be getting now that Queen Faust had set the teachers straight. He turned to the night-blue pony that was next to him. “Um... Lulu... Do you think the teachers are going to be even harder on me now?” he asked her.

The purple alicorn was settled comfortably beside her brother. “Of course not,” she reassured. “Cos’ we’ve got your back...if they do that again, we’ll just tell mother again,” Luna smiled.

“Okay, thanks for the reassurance. I’m really glad that you’re here with me...” Zinc told her. “By the way, don’t you ever get cold? You barely wear any clothes ... except for the royal ones for special occasions...”

Luna shook her head. “Nope. Well... unless the temperature’s extreme.” She shrugged, “Remember, we have a hide.” She smiled, looking at her brilliant coat. “It’s like clothing, in it’s own way...”

“Well... true. I just find it odd that I’ve always got to wear clothes...” Zinc mumbled as he looked out the window. “I still don’t like Magic Class...” Luna cuddled closer to him. Her presence was comforting, like their mother’s. “You’ll get the hang of it.” She smiled slightly. “Maybe ya just need to practice some more?”

“True...” Zinc told her as he wrapped an arm around her. “But... I haven’t been able to cast a single spell though...” he sighed, starting to sound crestfallen. Luna looked at him, then out the window, “We’ll figure it out.” She sounded hopeful. Suddenly, there came a knock at the door. The princess turned her head, “I wonder who that could be... Should we let them in?” She looked to Zinc, raising a brow.

“Uh... Sure, let’s let ‘em in...” Zinc said as he stood up to go and open the door. The door opened before he even reached it; it nearly hit him. A grinning Celestia stood there, holding a plate of cake. “Hiya.~ Thought I’d bring some cake to celebrate.” Luna stood up. “To celebrate what...?”

“Well, those teachers aren’t gonna be mean anymore. So...” Celestia trailed off. Luna giggled, “You’re just trying to find an excuse to eat cake... Oh, Tia...” Luna laughed quietly.

Zinc looked over at the piece of cake. “What kind of cake is it? It looks like one I’ve never seen before?” he asked her.

“Pfft, how am I supposed to know? It’s cake. It looks good, so it’s TASTY cake.” Celestia smiled, walking into his room.

“It looks kind of strange, Tia...” Luna mumbled, trying to get a closer look at the pink frosted cake.

“So... Who’s gonna take the first bite?” he asked them, looking over at the pink frosted cake, before looking at his siblings.

“Mmmmm...” Celestia looked from the cake to her siblings. She pushed the plate towards Zinc. “You try it. I always get the first bite...” The pinkish alicorn smiled at him.

Luna just watched. “Somehow... I have a bad feeling about this...” She thought to herself. Her wings quivered anxiously as she looked from the cake to Zinc.

He looked at the cake and then at Luna. “Well...one bite couldn’t hurt...” he said as he took a small bite of the cake. His entire body was tingling from the taste. Something seemed off as he ate the cake. His clothes seemed looser.

~~~

Celestia stopped talking, giggling at the happy memory, from when she was just a filly. Her son, Shooting Star, sat there on her bed listening to the story. “Wait? What happened next? Why did his clothes seem looser?” Star asked while Celestia looked into his green eyes taking a breath, “Oh my little Star, it was a rare cake that makes whomever eats it shrink a little.” Celestia said while covering her son with her wing. Star was getting comfy under his mom’s wing.

“Well, come on tell me and how come I have never met your mom?” Star asked more questions. “That will come later in the story, for now you just need to listen.” Celestia stated while placing a pacifier in his mouth, Star sat there quiet and content listening to his mother.

~~~

Zinc smiled as he finished the slice of cake, “Ah, that was delicious...” He said as he put the plate down, He noticed that his clothes seemed to be looser than before. “Hey Lulu, Tia, is it me or are my clothes bigger?” He asked his alicorn siblings.

“Oh! That cake was called Mini-Mini cake. It makes somepony about 10% of their normal height~” Luna said while giggling, “So lets think... you will be the size of a baby, I think. Am I right Tia?” She asked. “Yes you are correct~ You win this!” Celestia said while tickling Luna’s belly.

Zinc had a look of shock on his face, “10% o-of my height!” He said as his clothes became baggier as he got smaller. He struggled to hold up his pants and underwear, “I-I don’t want to be that small, I could get hurt really easily!”

“No you won’t, little Zincy~” Luna said while she took her wing, tickling Zinc’s nose, making him sneeze.

Zinc sneezed, his sneeze was soft and quiet. “L-Lulu, don’t do that... it makes me sneeze...” He told her as a few more sneezes happened.

“Luna, stop now...” Celestia scolded her younger sister. Zinc was now sitting there his clothing had fallen off him, he was now naked, covering his nether regions so Celestia and Luna couldn’t see him naked.

“T-Tia! Luna! G-Get me some clothes!!” Zinc shouted as he hid underneath his bed.

“Tia, maybe we should go and dig up his baby cloths~” Luna said while giggling.

“Not funny Lulu!” Zinc shouted from underneath the bed, “J-Just get me some clothes... Not my old baby clothes either...”

“Luna you are brilliant! Go and get them and hurry~” Celestia said, while pointing Luna to the door.

“No, Tia, I don’t wanna wear them, I’ll tell Mom about this if you do!” Zinc said from under the bed, running even further underneath the bed.

“Tell her, please.” Celestia said, levitating Zinc in the air.

“Gyah! T-Tia! L-Let me be, I don’t want you to see me without my clothes!” Zinc said as he tried to grab the legs of the bed, but to no avail.

“Ok Tia, I am back. I found some old onesies of his and some old training pants too~” Luna said running back in the room.

Zinc’s eyes went wide with terror. “No... No!!!” He shouted as he grabbed a hold of a piece of the floor. “You. Will. Not. Put. Me. In. Baby. Clothes!” He shouted at them, holding on for dear life.

“Yes we will~ Just watch~” Luna sang while giggling, putting the baby clothes on Zinc.

Zinc struggled as Luna put the baby clothes on him. Once she was done, he sat down, arms crossed, and glared at them, “I hate you both...” He grumbled.

“Aww~ Aren't you cute Zinc~” Queen Faust said walking in the room.

“M-Mom!!!” Zinc exclaimed, sounding startled. “M-Make Tia and Luna get me some real clothes!”

“Well we don’t have any to fit somepony of your current size” Queen Faust said while smiling.

“C-Can’t you get somepony to make some for me?” He asked. “I don’t want to be in my old baby clothes...” Zinc whined.

“That could take to the end of the week Zinc, so the answer is no” Queen Faust said sternly.

Zinc sighed , “Fine...” he sighed as he sat there, feeling disappointed. “Just don’t start treating me like a baby...”

“I can't promise that Zincy you know that” Celestia said while messing Zinc’s hair up.

Zinc shook his head, trying to get his hair back to normal, “Quit it Tia! That’s kinda annoying...” He told her.

“He is right Celly don’t do that” Luna said with a smirk. “Thank you Lulu...” Zinc said with a smug smile on his face.

“That's my job to mess with him.” Luna said while taking a picture of Zinc.

“LUNA!!!” Zinc shouted as he ran over to her, “Stop it! That’s not funny!”

“I found it funny now we have a picture of you like this” Luna said while levitating the camera out of Zinc’s reach.

“Luna... Stop... being mean to me...” He said tearing up, before all out bawling.

“Come on LuLu you are being mean to him” Celestia said while the camera smashed on the wall seeing a green glow coming from Zinc’s hands.

Zinc continued to cry as he thought that his sister hated him now.

“Uhh Zinc...Did you just break that camera?” Luna asked in a shaky voice.

“W-What?” He said as he stopped crying long enough to answer her, “What do you mean?”

“Well it seems you can use magic, it was just locked away in you.” Queen Faust said looking at Zinc with a smile only a mother could give.

“I-I can use magic?” Zinc said as he wiped his tears away, his stomach growling a bit.

“Yes you can that is cool Zinc, now we can all practice together!” Celestia cheered

“It seems that a little baby is hungry~” Luna teased

“S-Shut up...” Zinc said as he stuck his tongue out at her, his stomach betraying him again, while Luna had an evil grin on her face.

“Maybe we should go out and eat.” Luna suggested.

“No! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!” Zinc said as he openly hated the idea, “I’m not leaving this castle until I’m back to normal...”

“Awww, why not Zinc??” Luna asked poking his stomach.

Zinc fell back onto his butt. “I don’t want anypony to see me!” He exclaimed as his stomach growled again.

“Well I am hungry and besides, I can easily overpower you.” Luna said levitating Zinc all the way in the air.

“No! I’d rather go on a liquid diet then go out!” Zinc exclaimed..

“I think we could arrange that if you really want.” Luna said giggling.

Zinc blushed a little, “W-What are you talking about?” He asked, his stomach still growling.

“Need I explain more Zinc?” Luna questioned with a malicious grin.

“What are you trying to say?” Zinc asked Luna, shaking a little.

“Luna don’t even think about it, Zinc you should be guessing by now” Celestia said.

Zinc looked over at Celestia with a confused look in his eyes, “W-What are you two talking about?” He asked.

“Lets see Zinc you are the size of a baby and what do babies eat?” Luna hummed while poking Zinc’s stomach again.

“Um... Milk?” He said as he guessed.

“Out of a what? Come on Zincy you’re doing good so far.” Luna said while giggling at Zinc’s expression.

“Um... A bottle?” Zinc guessed, not knowing much about raising a child.

“Ok Luna, just tell him already this is getting painful to watch.” Celestia sighed.

“Zinc, you said you would rather be on a liquid diet, so guess what now got both things right” Luna said to him.

“Um... What do you mean?” Zinc asked as he looked at Luna a bit confused.

“Zinc, I swear! I was going to give you a bottle. You’re slow, aren't you.” Luna huffed, looking at him.

“I’m not slow!” He shouted to Luna, “I just don’t think well on an empty stomach.”

“Well do you want to go out and eat? I sure do think about all of the food out there.” Luna said trying to tempt Zinc.

“Sure... Let’s go do that. Afterwards, we can also go skydiving from the sun!” Zinc exclaimed to Luna.

“Maybe if you're big enough then.” Luna giggled.

Zinc sighed, “I was being sarcastic...” He said, “Just give me the stupid bottle and we never talk about this outside of this room...”

“You know her better than that Zinc” Celestia said.

“True... But that’s also why I know where her diary is~” Zinc sang with a smile.

“YOU WOULD NOT DARE!!!” Luna screamed, her aqua blue eyes glaring at Zinc.

“Ow... Loud much...” Zinc grumbled, clasping his ears.

“That's the point. Don't EVER touch my diary, do you hear me?!” Luna shouted angrily.

“Sure... Just don’t talk about what goes on in this room.” He told her.

“You are just mean. Oh, and if you touch it, then see what I do to you” Luna said.

Zinc stuck his tongue out before realizing something, “We... Don’t have any bottles left, do we...”

“No we don't, now let's go .” Luna said walking out of Zinc’s bedroom.

“But... How am I going to eat?” Zinc questioned.

“I am sure that one of the cooks somewhere will make something for you, and be lucky you have shorts on” Luna giggled at his face.

“I’m so getting you back for this...” He grumbled to her, “One way or another...”

“Ok you two, let’s stop bickering” Celestia said to Zinc and Luna.

“Well... she started it...” Zinc said as he complained.

“I don’t care now shut up, both of you” Celestia said with a little anger in her tone.

“Y-Yes Ma’am...” Zinc whimpered, sounding scared of his own sibling.

~~~~~

“What happened next come on tell me!” Star asked almost begging while Celestia tucked the little colt in to bed.

“Maybe tomorrow,right now you need your sleep Star. I will see you when you wake up tomorrow.” Celestia said kissing Star on the forehead before turning the light off.
