A little Sparkling Blaze

Meeting the other side of the family

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Aria's POV

It's been three months since I had Tree and Paper. I hate to admit it but Sunset was right I really shouldn't have done much during the pregnancy. It was worse then Sparkling's but we all made it through it. Paper was born normal for lack of a better word. She didn't seem to have anything wrong with her. While Dash is happy about it I can't help but get scared, worry about what could happen. Tree was born autistic like Sunset said she would. She's not developing as fast as her sister and there could be more problems as she gets older.

Right now me Sparkling and Dashie are getting ready to go and see the other side of our family. Both Sparkling and Dashie have been excited to finally meet them.

Me and Dashie are changing the twins clothes,meanwhile Sparkling who was already ready to go was packing their bag for us.
I was worried how much noise would be there,with Dagi's,Sony's and our family,being there might be too much for Tree.I was also worried about the fact Sunset decided to come along,not for Sunset but for Sparkling's and Blame's unsolved problems.I didn't wanna get out of there with none of my daughters crying.

I look at Paper who I'm getting ready while Dash went to put Tree in the baby chair.

"I hope aunt Silver at least spared you because she clearly didn't your sisters."I tell her,she coos at me without understanding a word,but at least she was cooing and talking the only sound emitted by Tree was her cry,she still hasn't manifested a way of comunicating that lets me know she'll be able to sing,and that really worried me.

"Mom you ready?"Sparkling asks with her sister's purse in her arm.

"Yeah."I say as I got Paper to put her in her baby chair.

"I think we are too." Dash says. "Sunset should be going with Winter and Dagi."

"And Sonata is coming with Flash and Sophia. First time in a long time we'll have everyone all together."

"How long since you've seen them?"

"Since before we met you and the girls."

"That long?"

"It doesn't fell that long when you're immortal. I still try and talk to them when I can. Just not always as often as I would like."

Not long after that all of us got in the car and left to go see the others.

The trip was pretty long,so naturally we had to take some stops because we had babies,but soon we were in the first house we ever had a family in this world.
Dash was suprised cause she could see it was a old house but an old house that had Adagio's hand all over it,the girls liked it that way so they matained it that way.
I could see Dash was nervous now we arrived,but was more calm once she realized Dagi and Sony had already arrived.

I laugh a bit."Prepare yourself to be the main attraction,not only we have babies,but the girls will be really taken aback with me having a partner after swearing I wouldn't fall in love.Or the fact I had kids."

We knock,Lilian opens the door.

"Hey aunt Ari."She then gets a look around."Woah mom wasn't kidding when she said a lot changed for you."

Tree was in Dash's lap and started hiding her face.Oh yeah that,Sunset told us it could happen she hating any changes at all.

"I suppose those three are my cousins,why don't you all come inside?"

We all went inside.

"Yeah this is Sparkling, Tree and Paper. Your other aunts should be here with your cousins." I could tell Dash was doing her best not to be awkward but was having trouble. "Oh this is Rainbow Dash. She's my...well..."

"I always told you you'd find someone."Lilian told me.

"Dashie, this is Lilian.She's Adagio's daughter."

"Nice to meet you..."

Lilian hugged her. "Welcome to the family."

"The others here? They need to meet everyone too."

"Yeah Abigail and Flora are in the living room meeting the rest of mom's and aunt Sony's family but Florence still isn't up,and if she is she's hiding upstairs to not take her meds.But with you here can you maybe help?She always listened to you.Maybe already go up and present her your whole family."

"C'mon guys."I turned and told Dash and Sparkling,we already had the babies in our laps.

I needed to make sure Florence didn't yell,like she always did because it would bother Tree and she would start crying.And yelling also made Sparkling flinch.

"Knowing my niece she's definitely awake."I tell Dash as we're going up.

"Is she?"

"Yeah definitely,and she's hiding either on her closet or under her bed she's pretty easy to find when she hides."

I get in Florence's room and go over to her bed I look under it.

"I bet your sister,cousin and niece aren't happy you're pretending to be asleep when the whole family is over."She got out of under the bed super fast.Now she was gonna yell but before she did."Two of your new cousins really don't like yelling."

She nodded and gave me a hug."I missed you auntie."

"Missed you too kiddo.These are your cousins the babies are Tree and Paper,and the oldest is Sparkling."I could tell Sparkling was a bit nervous to be presented to our old relatives too."C'mon Sparkling don't be shy,you're 13,you can present yourself to your cousin."

"Umm hey."Was all Sparkling managed to say before Florence pulled her into a crushing hug.Sparkling giggled."I'm guessing you liked me."

Florence then pulled off.Then took a look at me and Dash.

She rushed over and hugged Dash."Thanks for making auntie Ari happy,the years she took care of me I could tell she wasn't happy but now she has you to love and she's happy again."

Florence was more naive then Sonata,her mind was of a 3 year old.So sometimes her sincerity when we didn't want her to tell things like this to other people could be quite annoying.

I could tell Dash and Sparkling weren't used to dealing with someone like Florence. It'll get easier.

"Of course..." Dash told her. "We love each other."

"You do look like aunt Harriet."

"Everyone keeps saying that. But I don't know..."

"I'll show you." She took Dash by the hand and took her to my room. And there hanging on the wall was one of my favorite pictures. It was of me and Harriet in wedding dresses holding hands with big smiles on our faces. You could really tell how much her and Dash looked alike.

"I really do look like her. But how did you two get married?"

"We didn't, we couldn't,we had to hide everything. But I wanted to have a wedding so we both got wedding dresses and we did our own."I laughed."Only me,her,my sisters and the kids knew about this.Her siblings always classed us as the best of friends and not girlfriends.My sisters always supported it.But I also can see a difference,even if Harriet was allowed to use a half-suit,half-dress like we did on our wedding she wouldn't.She would use a dress,she was a bit more girly than you."

"You mean none of her sisters and brothers knew about this picture?"

"No.At least until I left.A reason I'm glad we returned here when only Harriet was alive.I don't know if the others saw the picture."

Sparkling had entered the room and I could tell she was feeling magic.

"But I didn't want come to this room,it was also the room she decided to stay until dying."I get to the bed and tap to my side so Dash sitted with me.Sparkling went to see the picture."This was the room where I used my magic for something good for the first time.To wake her up from her coma so we could say our goodbyes."I look outside Florence is trying to run through the halls."Florence can just be really tactless due to the fact she has dementia not as bad as Snow,but worser than Sonata's,and she has the mind of a 3 year old.But I'm glad she showed you the picture.So maybe you'll understand how hard this is. If I ever seem stand offish, or try and push you away. It's because I know how this will end. The only way it can end" I feel my eyes start to fill with tears. "But I love you. If nothing else know that and you make me so happy."

Whatever else I was trying to say is cut off as I lose control and start crying.

Dash pushes me close and kiss me."Ari I'm so glad you finally got that off your chest.But it was worth it with her and it'll be worth it with us.I promise it.Because love is worth it,it doesn't matter if you're immortal or not,how do you think your sisters feel about Winter and Flash or their past loves?Besides now you'll have 3 kids we'll raise together to remind you of me if that ever happens.Although that makes me curious,are you guys still immortal without you know the pedants?"

"No.We aren't but we'll still likely live very long.And about our girls....They're half-siren so they're expected to live up to 300 hundred or more."

"300? Wow."

"Yeah and that's on the low end. In theory if they don't lose their pendants they could live a lot longer."

"How do you do it?"

"What do you mean?"

"Not going crazy being alive that long?"

"The world keeps changing. It keeps things from getting boring. Besides now I have you."We kissed again.

Sparkling came up to me she must have overheard."You're joking right mom?"

"No,I'm not but you can take it Sparkling,besides you'll always have some family to rely on because eventually you're gonna grow up and build your own family with siren blood too.Anyways speaking about family let's all go downstairs to meet Abigail and Flora.We also can take Florence to meet her sister and other cousins."We went downstairs it was the mess I expected Sophia running around with Snow both Sonata and Adagio trying to make them stop.

Adagio's twins seemed bored out of their minds,Lilian was trying to entertain them but I could see already must discovered about her sisters illness as she had two knives with her and was explaining to them that wasn't a game,Blame had his angry "I didn't wanna come" face and when he saw Sparkling his angry gaze went directly to her.

Winter,Sunset and Flash were trying to get to know Abigail and Flora.Florence ran and jumped behind her twin and hugged her.

"There you are." Flora said as Florence hugged her. "You meet Winter, Sunset, and Flash?"

"No." Florence shook her head.

"This is Winter, he's aunt Dagi's husband, Sunset his big sister. She's Tifany's and Rebecca's aunt." She pointed at them I could tell Lilian was getting annoyed with them. "I'll introduce you later...probably. And this is Flash. He's mom husband."

"Really?!"

"Yeah." Flash said. It's nice to finally meet...."

Florence cut him off with a giant hug.

"I warned you that would happen." Flora laughed. "But see those two girls running around over there? One is aunt Dagi's.But the one that kinda looks like mom? That's Sophia. Our little sister."

"Our...our...you mean?"

Flora nodded.

Florence took off running towards Sophia and Snow.

Flora yelled at Dagi."I just told Florence!"

Adagio knew that meant "add one more people running at the bunch,please stop her".

"Umm Flora not wanting to sound offensive but are you the only one of your mom's kids who's umm..."Flash went to ask.

"Normal?"Flora completed."No,my dementia is just extremely controlled to the point I only take really small doses of my med.But like my other sister who was like this I think if anything triggers it,I would go on a downwards slope.You might wanna keep an eye on Sophia,but from what I see from her she might be like me."

Abby then completed."But don't overworry about it.From what I see grandma and Winter got three much larger problems in hands."

Me,Dash and Sparkling then sitted where they were.

"There your family is!"Flora said."I missed you aunt Ari."

"Hey grandaunt Ari!"Abby said."Three kids huh?"

I see Sparkling was already getting nervous because of Blame in the same room as we were,Sunset saw it too we both sighed.

"Something wrong?"Flora asked.

"Sunset's son and my daughter had a falling out since his sister's death and now they won't act normal around each other."I then put a hand in Sparkling's shoulder."Sunset won't let him yell at you now can you please present yourself to your cousin and niece?"

"Oh right,I'm Sparkling.Nice to meet you."She said giving them a smile.

"Nice to meet you too."Them both answered.

"Moms I'm gonna help aunt Dagi and aunt Sony."She left to help her aunts with her cousins.

"Natural kid caretaker huh?"Abigail said raising an eyebrow."How early do you think she'll start?"

"I hope not too early,anyways that's not all my family the babies who are sleeping are my twins Tree and Paper and this is my wife Rainbow Dash."

I saw Dash brace herself for another big hug. But instead got a:

"Nice to meet you."

"You too." Dash said. Then they hugged.

"I at least like to let people talk fist. But there is something I don't know if I should ask but..."

"Who's the father?" I asked.

"Yeah..you don't have to answer if you don't want to.."

"No,no I'll tell you. I was raped three times, the first gave me Sparkling, the next a miscarriage,and the third Tree and Paper."

"I'm so sorry I shouldn't have asked."

"No you didn't do anything wrong."

That's when we all heard Lilian shout. "For the last time that's not a game! But if you really want to play how about you try playing with ME?!" She was still talking to Tifany and Rebecca and both her and Rebecca had ran out of patience for the other. Adagio tried to get to them before the fight started but Rebecca threw the first punch. I was glad they didn't have any knifes so it could be worse. Lilian punched her back and they both grabbed each other by the hair and the fell through a table before Adagio could get to the two of them. And she used her siren strength to pull them apart.

She first turned to Rebecca:

"You for the last time this is not a game,go with your aunt right now,she'll give your meds."

"NO!"She yelled.

"Do you wanna be stuck in that place all alone for a whole year again?"Adagio said her tone firm.Rebecca looked down."That's what I thought,meds now."

Rebecca then went to Sunset but before she could take the meds fainted on the couch.

She then turned to Lilian:

"What's wrong with you?I told you why they act that way.The last thing you should do is tempt them for a fight.Besides don't think you're adult enough to start a fight with your 14 year old sister,who thinks violence is a game?I really didn't expect to giving a talking to,at least not to my daughter who's 205."That's the more pissed tone I ever heard Adagio speak to Lilian."Any time she or Tifany get violent they faint after,anytime they get violent they blackout when they're being violent,it's not them in control and you yelling at them to play their game with you just opened the door,they think that was a invite."

"But mom,if it's like that why didn't Tifany attack me?"

"Because Rebecca always been worse than her.She spent a whole year in a mental hospital because of it while Tifany only half a year."Adagio sighed."Now if you excuse me I'll go give Rebecca her meds and stop Snow from running."

"I don't think I've ever seen grandma that mad." Abby says.

"I know I haven't." Dash tells us.

"I don't blame her.Lilian should have known better."

"Does grandma act like that all the time?"

"No just when she gets really frustrated about something."

"Something happen?"

"No everything is fine."

"Abigail." My voice had lost all hint of cheer and Abby picked up on it.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong... at least no more then normal."

"Grandma is becoming like her aunt isn't she?"

"Not near as bad...but yeah."

Winter got up."I'll go calm Adagio."

Abigail then looked at me."Can you calm Lilian?"

"Of course kiddo,I helped raised her too she'll listen to me."I say and go to Lilian's room where she was sitted in her bed.

"I didn't expect to see your mom that angry today....But you know she was right,right?You're an adult and you know your sister is sick.She wasn't gonna pick a fight with you had you not say that.You know that scar in her eye?"

"Yeah."

"She got from "playing" with her twin sister when she was little."

"They don't even recognize each other when they're like that?"

"Not even each other.It's a constant fight from your mom so they don't kill Snow or each other.And Sunset said it's not a guarantee Snow doesn't have it."

"I didn't realize they were that bad. I could come and help if she needs."

"Your mom wouldn't want that."

"Does she need it tho?"

"I'm not going to tell you she couldn't use the help. But she would never want to you take care of them."

"But you did with us."

"I'm her sister not her daughter"

"But those are my sisters. If it was mom or aunt Sonny what would you do?"

"You're not wrong...But you know how your mom is...Besides you have Abigail and Florence to take care off.I guarantee you that if you leave Flora alone with them it would be sufficient to trigger her dementia to become worse."

She sighed."You're right,wish I could help tho."

"Don't worry Sunset is their doctor and she is equestrian and friends with a princess so yeah...They getting treated how a siren should be treated when sick and Winter is always there to calm down your mom specially when she has her visions."

"That's good.But I noticed something when we were talking to Rebecca and Tifany.Did mom become an alcoholic?"

I sighed,I wished I didn't haven't to tell Lilian this."Yeah a bad one and Tifany and Rebecca are on the same path,they always sneak it around and drink it even being just 14 and taking meds."

"Aunt Ari."

"I know kiddo I'm worried about them too."

"Can't you do something?"

"Winter hates drinking, he's always trying to get her to quit. But she told him she'll only stop if she gets pregnant again."

"Then this Problem might take care of itself."

"Sadly not, a siren can only have so many kids."I sigh."And Snow might have been her last.Because with Snow,she's already up to 6 kids and after 10...You don't wanna know what happens to a siren,one who's cursed nonetheless."

"Really,what happens?"

"After 10 kids a siren just dies.But with we being cursed nobody on our family can even get to 10 without dying so it's better not to risk it."I sigh and get up."Anyways once Becca wakes up you should really look past that side of your sisters and get to know them from who they are.Think of them like Flora when you were little and her dementia was still on the loose,you always told me she was annoying,now you can't bare to stay apart from each other.Plus remember they're only 14."

"Uuum...Aunt Ari,Abby is having visions too,I didn't think they were bad up until you telling me about the kids thing but I don't know if I should tell you now."

Oh no,please don't involve one of my kids.

"What is it she saw?"

"You know your oldest,Sparkling right?"

"Yeah."

"She'll have 10 kids.We don't know when she starts because half-sirens age slowly,but my guess is by high school age."

Even now Sparkling says she wants a big family. And maybe it might not be quite as bad as I think. "Can you tell how old she is when she has the last one?"

"Not with how slow sirens age. But with how bad everyone takes it not very old. And this might sound crazy but is there anyone else with magic besides us?"

"Sunset could if she could focus it."

"I'm not talking about her. It's who she ends up with."

"Well there is someone else but we avoid him. His name is Sombra long story short he's an exiled king. He's dangerous, him and your mom fought once."

"And he's still alive?"

"If they keep fighting they would have killed each other, so we just avoid each other. But I'd...he's..."

"It's not him. But they have magic too."

"Is she happy?"

Lilian nods."Abby says she can tell they really love each other.Sparkling apparently had a crush on him,I mean has a crush on him since now."

"Sparkling before Sunset's daughter dying did told her she had a crush in a guy called Shadow...I don't know if she remembers it...with how bad she got after that big trauma of you know having someone killed in her front."

"I think she might not...But when she sees him she'll probably will."

I wasn't sure how to feel. In the one hand I was just told Sparkling was going to have ten kids and I knew there was nothing I could do to stop it. Trying would just make it happen faster. But she was going to be happy and fall in love. Lilian must have saw the look I had because she said:

"I shouldn't have told you. Knowing just makes it worse,Abby has been going a downwards slope since the visions started,and for what I can tell mom has too.But I know mom wouldn't have told you....She'd never want her little sister to worry about what's gonna happen like she's worried.But you deserve to know aunt Ari."

We then heard yells and crying from the living room and I would recognize both cries coming from the living room anywhere,Blame must have argued with Sparkling and Tree must be melting down of being overwhelmed,Dash could take care of Tree while me and Sunset brought the arguing between Blame and Sparkling to an end.

I went into the living room and Sunset was already trying to break up the argument.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"She started it." Blame told me.

I doubted that very much. Sunset spoke up:

"She didn't do anything. She was just here."

"Just being here us enough."

"Blame." Sunset snapped at him. "What have I told you about talking like that?"

"But it's true. It's all her fault."

"It's not,it was your sister's choice to do that,also I'd like to remind you this is her family and we're just here cause your aunt and uncle invited us.So now you're gonna apologize to her...For how you been treating her even when she was sick,and knowing that was her trigger and still yelling at her about it."

"I'm not apologizing to that bitch ever,mom!"

That's when I couldn't hold myself anymore."What did you call my daughter,Blame?"

Sparkling was crying in Abby's arms.Abby trying to make her stop anyway she could think of.

Blame stayed quiet.

"I said what did you just call her?Repeat yourself!"

Blame went storming out of the room.

"I'm sorry Aria,since his sister's death,he's just been off the rails.It's my fault he's like this."

"Sunset I don't blame you,but...If he ever does anything physical to Sparkling know I won't be able to hold myself anymore he being your son or not."

"Aria."I could see the worry building in her face.

"Don't worry I didn't meant in a physical way you been through pain enough after losing Sky.Now you go tell of your son,I'm gonna calm my daughter down."

Sunset before going to tell off Blame turned to Abby."I'm sorry this all had to happen under your hoof,tell your aunts I'm sorry too."

"It's ok."Abby answered.

I went up to Sparkling,she was crying a lot.I sang the song I written for her she told me she was sleepy and went to sleep in the couch.

Now time to check on my other daughter.I went with Dash Tree still was rocking herself in Dash's lap and crying,meanwhile Paper was in Flora's lap quiet.

"She still melting down Dashie?"

"Yup.I think it's too much noise for her in here.I really wish we could stay longer. But Tree can't handle it right now."

I know she's right. But I also don't want to just leave, I was hoping we could stay longer. And Dash doesn't want to be the one to suggest we leave.

"We should probably go back home."

"Aria just because today was like this doesn't mean tomorrow will be."

"We both know Tree and Sparkling won't just be better tomorrow. And there's Rebecca too. I'm not saying coming here was a bad idea but the girls aren't ready for this many new people all at once."I sigh."I think Sonata will probably stay she has no reason to leave,Flash can drive her home safe and Sophia is ok.But us and Dagi will have to leave.We can come when there's not much people at the same time."

"Ari,I can tell that's not the only thing on your mind something happen?"

I sigh."Abigail,my grandniece is having visions like Adagio,and Sparkling will have 10 kids."

"Ten kids? You gotta be kidding." Dash said disbelieving.

"If that's what she saw I believe it."

"Well Sparkling said she wanted a big family. I guess she get it." Then something clicked in her head. "If it's like Adagio's visions how is it so bad? With what I understand about sirens having large families like that is normal."

"I never told you have I?"

"Tell me what?"

"You're right most sirens have large families It's a side effect of our siren instincts and how feral we are. But with the curse we have when we have our tenth we die."

"Wait what? You mean Sparkling is...I know...I've seen Dagi be wrong but how do we know these will happen?"

"No Dashie,Dagi's never been wrong.We only haven't seem it happen yet.And we'll know when she meets the boy,he has magic too so should be easy."

"But who else could have magic besides us and you guys."

I sigh."Sombra.But Lillian told me it's not him."

"Well he does got Dean Candace as a daughter and Dean Candace has a brother she takes care off that's Sparkling's age...If she went to Canterlot Middle School she'd meet him,he does got magic,if I remember his name from my list is Shadow."

"I think that's the guy...Now I'm afraid to send her to Canterlot High when she's old enough."

"He's good Ari,plus I teach a turn in Canterlot High too,you know I'd keep an eye on them."

"I know but..."

"Aria are they going to get together?"

"That's what the visions say."

"And there's nothing we can do to stop it right?"

"I don't like where this is going."

"So wouldn't it be better this is how they get together? Instead of something else. This way we can see what happens."

"Just because you're right doesn't mean I have to like it."

"We can't keep her a little kid forever."Dash said."Look at least she isn't gonna fall in love with a dirt bag,and we know she'll have the big family she wants."

"Yeah...I want to ask Dagi about her visions about Tree and Paper now tho...I have a real bad feeling."

"Twinie ok?"

"Ari,did Tree just talk?"Dash asked me.

"I'm proud of her but more worried about what she said."I turned my back Paper is having a seizure fainted.

"Dash,turn the car to the nearest hospital right now and sign for Sunset to follow us with her car."

"Why what happened?"

"Just do it!"I yell worried seeing Paper was now struggling to breathe,definitely worse than her big sister.

Everything seemed to happen in slow motion and all at once as Dash sped up to the closest hospital. Sunset followed right behind us. I picked Paper up and ran inside the hospital with her Dash and Sunset where right behind me. They rushed her back at Sunset went after them. At first they weren't going to let her go back but she explained who she was, that she was her doctor and her aunt they let her go back too. Leaving me and Dash alone.

"Dash,she was struggling to breathe...I think she's worse than Sparkling."

"Probably.Do you think she'll be ok?"

"I don't know.Wait we left Tree and Sparkling on the car."

"Don't worry Aria,I'll run back to the car,pick Tree up,bring her in and wake Sparkling up."

Dash goes to the car and soon comes back with Tree in her lap and Sparkling who clearly just woke up behind her.

"Twinie ok?"Tree asked again.

Sunset comes back.

"Paper is more or less ok now,she's still fainted but the seizures stopped...But they discovered she has epilepsy,really worse than Sparkling's."

"What happened?!"Sparkling asked the worrying about her sister showing on her face.

"Your sister had a seizure,worser than the ones you have."Sunset tells her.

"But she'll be ok right?"

"There's only how to know when she wakes up."

"Which should be?"I ask Sunset.

She makes her nervous face.

"Sunset...When will my daughter wake up?"

"It can be in a few hours,days or weeks.You guys just have to hope for the best.If she doesn't wake up in 4 hours they're transferring her to the kids hospital in Canterville and knowing your aunt is merciless Aria,I'll put her in the kids ICU,where I can keep a better eye on her."

"Twinie ok?"Tree asked Sunset seemingly aware of the tension as Sparkling was now crying and me and Dash traded nervous glares.

"No Tree,your twinie is not ok,but the doctors and aunt Sunset will take care of her."Sunset then turned to me and talked really low so Tree didn't heard."She can't know about her twin potentially being in coma unless she really is.I think her reaction would be really bad and if that happens it better be when you're close to home."

I see Dash trying to calm Sparkling down,and Tree trying to understand why her sister was crying and her moms were so tense.

"Twinie mama."She repeated to Dash.

"Sunset can we see Paper?She really wants to,and I think it's the only way Sparkling will stop crying."

Sunset goes talk to the doctors then comes back.

"You can,I'll warn you tho,it's not pretty,so don't be scared."

I know none of us were ready for what we would see when we got back there, but we needed to see her. All of us walked to her room. When we got to the door Sunset was waiting for us.

"Are you sure you're ready for this?" She asked before I can go in.

"As ready as I can be." I told her knowing that I'd never be ready for this but I needed to do it. I took a deep breath and walked in to Paper's room.

I knew it was going to be bad but I didn't think it would be this bad. Paper was laying on the bed clearly still unconscious from the seizure. She had wires and tubes all over her body, they even had a tube down her throat to breathe for her. I freeze up seeing her like that. How could this have happened so fast? I hate my aunt even more. My eyes fill with tears.

No I have to be strong for Sparkling and Tree. I...Not sure how long I was just standing there but I'm soon aware everyone had followed me in.

Dash before taking Tree closer to her twin,came up to me,kissed me and said almost crying too:

"Our baby will be ok Ari...Don't Worry."

"M-mom?Everything will be ok right?I don't wanna lose another little sister."Sparkling said breaking down even harder.

That's right Sparkling remembers Flaming.

I hold my oldest daughter."Everything will be ok sweetie.Your little sister will wake up and be alright."

Dash takes Tree to Paper.

"Twinie.Up."She kept repeating to Dash...Poor thing doesn't understand her twin might not be up so soon.

Dash came back with Tree to me,and look at me and asked:

"How are we gonna explain to her?"

"Let's wait the 4 hours.Then we'll ask Sunset to explain to her,she works in the pediatry part too so she'll be better than us at explaining it and like Sunset said if she has another meltdown it better be next to home."I say while still holding Sparkling.

We waited for whatever had to be the longest four hours of my life. But nothing happened, Paper showed no signs of waking up. One of the other doctors came in and checked her. He tried to hide just how bad it was but I could tell.

"We're finishing up the last of the tests now...we'll know for sure soon." He said as he quickly left. I could tell it was bad and he didn't want to be the one to tell us.

Sunset came back a few minutes later.

"Sunset tell me the truth, how bad is she?"

"They think she's passed being helped,but that's because they don't know about the magic she has.I told them I knew how to help her so they're preparing themselves to send her to Canterville's kids hospital.But she is in coma...And I don't know for how long,I need to examine her in the hospital back home again to check just how much her magic is helping since they won't let me do it here."

Dash who's been walking around trying to distract Tree for this four hours came back.Just by the look in our faces she could tell.

"She's in coma isn't she?"

Sunset nodded.

Tree seemed more annoyed by the growing tension.

"Twinie.Up."

Sparkling was completely breaking down,and I knew Dash didn't know how to explain.

"Sunset we don't know how to tell her."

Before telling Tree she turned to Dash:

"Hold her close I don't know how she's gonna react."

Dash held Tree close. Sunset walked over to her and got down so she was on her level.

"Aunt Sunny twinie up." Tree said to her.

"I'm sorry but she can't get up right now. She's very sick right now."

"You make better?"

"I'm going to try."

"No make better twinie up."

"She might not wake up for a long time. Maybe even ever."

That's when I saw the most heartbreaking look cross Tree's face as she started to cry,different from any way I heard her cry before,it wasn't an "I need something" cry or "I'm having a meltdown" cry.It was a "I want my sister to be ok" cry.

All of this just reminded of when Sonata was in coma when she was pregnant from her first twins.But now instead of happening with my sister it was with my daughter,Sparkling had already been in coma but it was different everyone was sure she would wake up due to her age.

But an damage like that at Tree's and Paper's age could really kill Paper really quickly.

Dash held Tree tighter trying to calm her down while I did the same to Sparkling as we waited for the ambulance for Tree to be transferred to arrive,how Paper was a baby they actually requested for either me or Dash to go with her in the ambulance.

I decided Dash would go and I would leave the girls at Dagi's home,I just was afraid how Sunset also would let Blame there it would start another fight and after all that Sparkling couldn't take more yelling at her but if anyone could stop that was Adagio.

Soon I was in the car with Tree crying in her baby chair and Sparkling crying in the back seat next to the window,I realized my vision was blurry I couldn't drive I was crying too.I needed my big sister.

I call Adagio."Dagi?"

"Aria,you're crying?What's going on?"

"Paper,she,she..."I couldn't finish my senteces they were cut off by sobbing which made the girls cry harder.

"Aria?" I heard Adagio say. "What happened? Where are you?"

"The hospital here." I managed to get out.

"I'll be there as soon as I can."

I was just lost to the world so I'm not sure how long it was but the car door opened and I saw it was Adagio. I just hugged her as tight as I could. She hugged me back."What happened?"

"Paper had a seizure really bad...so we brought here here. And now she...she's..." I started to break down again. "I'm going to lose her aren't I?"

"I..I don't know?" She told me.

"What do you mean you don't know? You see all of this before it happens."

"I know but I don't see everything anymore. Abby has them too."

"She told you?"

"No, but you know what to look for. She's doing a good job hiding it."

"I can't lose her, I just can't."

"You won't lose her."

"How can we be sure?"

"Abigail or Lilian would have warned you back at house,I may spare you and Sonata because I know it's impossible to stop it,but they still think if they told you,you could stop things from happening."

"I was gonna drive the girls to your house,and go stay with her together with Dash.Sunset told me she would examine her again taking in account she has magic."

"So that's why Sunset left Blame there in a rush,go to the other seat I can drive for you."She saw the girls crying."Or better yet go back there to calm Tree and Sparkling."

I went to the backseat and went to Dagi's home,I gave Tree for Sparkling to hold,and we dropped them off with Winter,that when saw Dagi driving,and tears still rolling down my face,understood this had to be very serious.

Then Dagi drove me to the hospital,told me she could her siren speed to get home and hugged me tight then left.
