Twilight Sparkle was sitting in her library reading a newly bought book while Spike was fast asleep with a Power-Ponies comic-book on his stomach when she notice that her and the book’s shadow was growing longer. Twilight also noticed that the room was getting brighter from the windows when she heard a loud sound, not unlike stone exploding causing the castle to shake violently, causing Spike to roll of the chair he was asleep on. She then noticed that the light was fading as another loud explosion, this time it was much farther away.
“Huh, what?” Spike asked in a dazed as loud crying could be heard coming from outside the castle.
“Stay here!” Twilight replied, she then teleported out side of the castle and noticed a large crater in the side of the castle just above the library with a smaller crater in the ground near the castle.
With extreme caution Twilight approached the crater where the sound of crying could be heard.
“U-uh hello?” Twilight asked as she approached the ledge.
Twilight’s eyes widened when she saw a one and a six inch long infant like creature that she has never seen before crying in the center of the crater but was some how not hurt. The creature has large snow white feathered wings, bright lavender hair, medium gray skin with two medium gray horns on the forehead, there was also some sort of a light gold circle that was missing about a third floating above the head, the creature has arms, not front legs with no hooves, the feet where all weird, tears were coming from it’s blue eyes as the toothless mouth opened with each wail.
“What is this thing? And why does it remind me of a foal?” Twilight wondered. as she picked up the creature with her magic and brought it into the castle.
Spike, for his part was wondering what was taking so long and decided to go down and see what was happening. Spike had just made it to the bottom of the stairs when Twilight walked in, holding the creature who was still crying.
“Uh what’s that?” Spike asked.
“Too be honest I have no clue, I’ve never seen anything like it” Twilight replied.
“Well what ever it is it’s crying like no tomorrow” Spike said as he covered his ears.
“Ugh I know, I-”- Twilight started to say when the creature quieted down -“Finally, now Spike can you hold it, I need to write a letter to Princess Celestia”
“Uh sure...” Spike replied as Twilight set the creature in his claws causing it to start crying again.
“Not again!” Twilight sighed as she picked the creature back up with her magic which caused it to stop crying.
“Um Twilight, I think it’s a baby” Spike suggested.
“Yea that would make a lo-wait if it’s a baby then where’s it’s mother?” Twilight asked.
“You mean you didn’t see anything else?” Spike asked.
“No, just two craters and this baby” Twilight replied.
“Maybe it’s an orphan?” Spike suggested.
“That’s possible but first lets write to Princess Celestia, she might know what this baby is” Twilight replied.
“Okay, I’ll get the paper and a quill” Spike said.
“Thanks” Twilight replied as Spike went to get the items.
“What exactly are you?” Twilight wondered as she rocked the baby back in forth.
“Hey Twi-uh what you got there?” Rainbow Dash started to say as she walked into the castle but soon noticed Twilight holding the infant.
“Oh uh hi Rainbow, it’s some sort of baby but I’ve never seen anything like it” Twilight replied.
“O-kay, where did you find it? And is it a boy or a girl?” Rainbow Dash asked.
“Uh well It’s a boy, and I found it in a crater outside the castle near a crater in the castle wall” Twilight explained.
“Back! Oh hey RD,” Spike said as he gave Twilight the paper and quill.
“Hi, so do you two know if he has any parents?” Rainbow Dash asked.
“Unfortunately no, but I do have a plan to try and locate at least his mother” Twilight replied as she wrote a letter to Princess Celestia and had Spike send it.
“By the way do you happen to know what he is?” Spike asked.
“Hmm...not in the slightest, to be honest he kinda looks like a monkey with out a tail and fur but with wings, horns and what ever that thing hovering above his head is” Rainbow Dash replied.
====================================================================================================
Four days have passed since Twilight found the baby and he already has grown to be two-feet tall and has the brain complicity of an eight year old. Twilight decided to raise him until they found his parents which by now was starting to look unlikely had named him Mystery due to what he is and where he came from being uncertain, she was also struggling with his rapid growth and the fact he kept on calling her “mom” bugged her a good amount.
“Mama look!” Mystery said as he held up a drawing using magic that Twilight had taught him.
“Mystery you do know that’s not my name right?” Twilight asked.
This shook Mystery to the core as he did not know that Twilight did in fact have a name.
“Y-you mean your name isn’t mama?” Mystery asked.
“No it’s Twilight Sparkle” Twilight explained with a soft smile.
Upon hearing this Mystery just went and sat in a corner with the expression of someone who found out their life is a lie.
“Mom, Twilight what is my life a lie?” Mystery thought as Twilight walked over to him.
“Uh everything okay?” Spike asked as he entered the room.
“Uncle Spike, my life is a lie!” Mystery shouted as he teleported in front of spike and hugged him.
“Whoa uh hi Mystery...wait did you just call me uncle?” Spike asked as he looked at Twilight with a what the hell happened face.
“Apparently he can’t handle knowing that my name is Twilight and not mom, but I never taught him how to teleport” Twilight replied.
“Okay, so Mystery just because her name is Twilight doesn’t mean your life is a lie right?” Spike asked.
“B-but it is!” Mystery screamed as he started teleporting all over the castle, wailing with his arms flailing.
“He’s having another tantrum, isn’t he?” Spike asked with a sigh.
“Yep, that’s like his third one this week, but I do have to say he is a fast grower in mind, physical and magical departments” Twilight replied.
“Yea...so what are we gonna do about his tantrums?” Spike asked.
“...It’s probably best we just let him calm down on his own” Twilight suggested as they watched Mystery appearing everywhere.
After Mystery had calmed down Twilight had asked him where he learned to teleport.
“Oh I just thought about it” Mystery replied as he went back to drawing.
====================================================================================================
“Jeez it’s already been eight days since I found him and he’s already grown to be about four feet tall, not to mention he has the brain of a colt in his teens” Twilight wrote as she heard a knocking at the door of her room.
“Come in” Twilight called.
“Hey mo-er Twilight, I’m going to go and help The Apples with their farming duties, is that okay?” Mystery asked.
He was wearing blue pants with a white t-shirt and a gray hoodie along with the start of a bright lavender beard.
“Of coarse, but be careful” Twilight replied with a smile.
“Will do, and thanks” Mystery said as he closed the door and left for Sweet Apple Acres.
While he was on his way to Sweet Apple Acres Mystery helped some ponies while on his way such as helping Trixie fix the wheel on her caravan and delivering some muffins to Dr Hooves. All in all Mystery enjoyed living in Ponyville as all the residents had accepted and cared for him like he was one of their own despite being a weird bipedal creature with arms, legs, horns, wings and being only fourteen days old he’s very friendly.
Wanting to make up for some lost time Mystery decided to fly the rest of his way to Apple’s farm so he could make it there on time. As he was flying he saw a yellow magic sphere appear around him as four other feather winged bipedal creatures flew around him while wearing light gold, eggshell white armor while holding swords and shields stopped and began hovering around him.
“Uh what’s the problem?” Mystery asked.
“Mystery we have been ordered to take you to Heaven whether or not you like it” One of the creatures said.
“How do you know my name and what do you want?” Mystery asked.
“We’re angels sent by Father to bring you back to Heaven” One of the angels replied.
“So what does this have to do with me?” Mystery replied.
“Do you not know of your heritage?” An angel asked.
“No, I don’t, now if you’ll excuse me I’m already behind so I have to get going” Mystery replied and then teleported out of the sphere causing it to disappear.
“Seize him!” One of the angels shouted as they flew towards Mystery.
Mystery however teleported out of the way of the four.
“All right I have had enough! You’re making me late so if you feel like delaying me any further then I suggest not!” Mystery shouted in anger.
“I think you’re forgetting that you’re out numbered” Another angel retorted as the four readied their shields and swords.
“Try it, I dare you!” Mystery said as he manifested a bright silver weapon that forked in three at the tip, it also has a deep red hilt, a yard three feet long eggshell white handle, and a gold pommel.
Mystery pointed the weapon at the four angels.
“This is your last chance, come peacefully or we’ll bring take you by force!” The first angel replied.
“Not gonna happen” Mystery said as he brought the weapon above his head, twirled it and shot a deep red, gold and green colored beam at the four creatures.
The angels managed to block the attack with their shields before Mystery appeared in front of them and swiped at the first one with the blunt end of his weapon. The other three formed another sphere around Mystery in an attempt to restrain him.
Annoyed at this Mystery turned the weapon upside down and stabbed it into the sphere, causing it to crack and shatter.
“Why won’t you leave me alone!” Mystery growled, causing the angels to retreat.
“We’ll be back Mystery” One of the angels said as a gold beam of light shone on them and disappeared with them.
Weirded out by this and annoyed that he was late he sent the materialized the weapon and flew faster to Sweet Apple Acres. Mystery finally made it to the farm where Applejack was waiting and was a bit annoyed at his tardiness.
“Bout time you arrived, you were supposed to be here minutes ago” Applejack scolded.
“I know I know I’m sorry but it wasn’t my fault, I was attacked by four creatures called angels and they were trying to kidnap me or something” Mystery explained.
“Uh huh...well you’re here now so go and harvest all the apples from over there” Applejack replied as she pointed a hoof to the eastern part of the farm.
“Will do” Mystery replied as he grabbed several baskets with and flew to that part of the farm where he was supposed to go.
While he was filling up the baskets Mystery couldn’t help but ponder what angels are and why they wanted him but he decided to put it in the back of his mind for now.
