“Did you really have to interrupt me from reading the latest power ponies comic? I was just getting to the good part!” Spike complained, before grabbing a scroll and quill.

“You can get back to that after you send this quick letter, Spike,” Twilight sighed, before shaking her head, “At least until your chores.”

“Fine, let's just get this over with,” Spike said, before holding the quill to the scroll, “Why are we sending this anyway? It must be important if you interrupted my precious comic book time. Well, it better be, anyway.”

“It’s about Fluttershy’s new special animal friend, Marcus. You didn’t see him?” Twilight responded, rolling her eyes.

“What’s so special about a new pet?”

“He’s more than a pet, Spike. He’s a new sapient species that was sent here from his world, due to a strange rainbow light.”

“Seriously? No way!”

“Yes, way! Now we are going to tell the princess to get him citizenship and have him legally adopted by Fluttershy.

“Can I see him?”

“He’s currently on Fluttershy.”

Spike looked and sure enough was a strange creature he hadn't seen before, sitting on top of the shy mare. Spike gasped at the strange ape-like creature being hugged by Pinkie.

“Alright, I guess this is worth taking a break from my comic,” Spike commented, causing the purple mare to roll her eyes again.

“Good. Ready?”

“Ready.”

“Dear Princess, Celestia, today Fluttershy discovered a new kind of sapient creature. His name is Marcus and according to him he’s a human. He seems to be some kind of hairless ape and he seems to be a young colt of his species. According to him and Fluttershy there was a strange rainbow light that seemed to have brought him here from his world. He is also an orphan and doesn’t want to return to his world and instead Fluttershy wants to adopt him, and I am asking to make him an official equestrian citizen and to legalize the adoption. I will also work on my next friendship lesson later this week. Sincerely, your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.”

“Isn’t this great, Marky? You are going to have a mommy and wonderful aunts who will take good care of you,” Pinkie told Marcus with a large grin.

“Aunts Pinkie?” Fluttershy asked.

“Yes, Fluttershy. Since you are going to be his mommy, that makes us, your friends his aunts.”

“I guess,” Fluttershy answered.

“Please, I will be the best aunt and treat him with parties and sweets,” Pinkie begged,

“Ok, Pinkie. You can be his aunt.”

“Yippie!” Pinkie cheered, before giving Marcus another hug, “Hear that little guy? As soon as the adoption is official, I will throw you a wonderful party.”

“As soon as this is over with little dude, I will take you on the ride I promised you,” Rainbow told him with a smile.

“Rainbow!” Fluttershy said sternly.

“Relax Flutters, I will be careful. I am not irresponsible.”

“Don’t worry Fluttershy, darling, I will be the responsible aunt he needs to help you out, if I must.”

“Thank you, Rarity,” Fluttershy sighed, “I take care of countless animals, but I know he needs to be treated like a colt. I am not sure if I will do that well, but I need to try.”

“Don’t worry Flutters, you have all of us to help you give the little dude the care he needs.” Rainbow assured her.

“Thank you, Rainbow.” Fluttershy thanked softly.

“Yes, Rainbow, darling, you might actually be more responsible than we thought,” Rarity responded with a smile.

“Yeah… Hey!” She complained, after realizing Rarity was teasing her.

The other mares and even Marcus chuckled at the cyan mare, while she pouted in annoyance. Twilight walked closer to the group with Spike following her.

“I sent the letter. Now we just have to wait for her to respond. Until then feel free to take care of him Fluttershy.”

“Thank you, Twilight,” Fluttershy responded.

Spike walked closer to the human and gently inspected him. He was the strangest creature Spike has ever seen. He didn’t even have fur save for some on the top of his head. He seemed to have claws, but they aren’t as dangerous.

“So, you're the new kid in town?” He asked the human.

“More like, world, but yes.”

“So, I heard. My name is Spike. I am a baby dragon and Twilight’s number one assistant. I suppose seeing you was worth stopping reading my latest comic.”

“Comic?”

“You read comics?”

“Yeah, there were some old used ones at the orphanage.”

“I think we might get along just fine. As long as I don’t miss out on more comic time, because of you we could be good friends.”

In a few minutes Spike burped out a response from the princess and Twilight eagerly grabbed it and opened it.

“Let’s see. Dear Twilight, I have to admit your letter was a complete surprise. I am more than willing to fulfill both of your requests, but I would like to see Marcus myself. I will be arriving tomorrow, since I know you would go crazy preparing and will give you time. This discovery could be legendary. I trust you and your friends will be able to take care of him until I arrive, and we discuss how to handle this situation. Sincerely, Princess Celestia, “Twilight read out, before frowning slightly, “I don’t go crazy preparing for her. What is she talking about?” She questioned, before noticing amused looks on the others, “What?”

“I didn’t know the princess has a sense of humor,” Rainbow commented with a chuckle, “Oh and you kind of do Twilight. During our hangouts you usually brag about her. I get it, the princess is awesome. Maybe as awesome as me, since she has a good sense of humor, but you do go overboard.”

The other mares nodded in agreement.

“She’s right, Twilight. We all love the princess and all, but you gush like a little school filly with a crush.”

“I do not!” Twilight snapped, blushing hotly.

“Anyway, I am happy to hear she is going to help us,” Fluttershy said with a smile, “Now if there isn’t anything else, I would like to take Marcus home. It’s almost lunch time and I must tend to my animals.”

“Sure thing, Fluttershy. Come back here first thing tomorrow for the meeting,” Twilight responded.

Fluttershy simply nodded.

“See you tomorrow, Marky,” Pinkie told him, before giving him one last hug.

“Like Pinkie said see you tomorrow, darling,” Rarity added, before giving him a hug of her own.

“See you little dude,” Rainbow told him, before giving him a gentle head rub.

“Yeah, sugarcube. Everything will be sorted out and you will finally be part of a family,” Applejack assured him, before gently rubbing his head like Rainbow.

“Maybe when this is over and I have free time, we can play together,” Spike suggested.

“Great idea Spike. He should make friends around his own age and learn about friendship. I might be willing to cut down your chores, if you help him with that, Spike.”

“More free time? Awesome. You really are going to be a great friend,” Spike told him with a huge smile.

“Spike, this is serious. I want you to help teach him friendship,” Twilight told him sternly.

“And I can do that while having fun. Isn’t that part of friendship?”

“He got you there, Twilight,” Rainbow commented with a chuckle.

“Yes, I suppose he has a point,” Twilight conceded, before walking up to the human and gently patting him on the head, “Like the others said, we will finally help you get a family and get you sorted into a new great life here in Equestria.”

Later that night Marcus was feeling tired and gently rubbed his eyes, before yawning.

“Tired?” Fluttershy asked him softly.

He simply nodded.

“I don’t quite have a bed for you yet and I don’t think you should use the couch again. You can share with me until then, if that is ok with you.”

He simply nodded again, before he slowly drifted off to sleep. Fluttershy managed to catch him before he fell to the floor.

“He really was tired,” She began with a giggle, “Now to get you to bed.”

She gently carried him to her bedroom and laid him on her bed. She covered him with the blanket and gently kissed his forehead.

“Goodnight little one. I will join you after checking the rest of my animal friends.”

Fluttershy left the bedroom with a smile on her face. She never thought she would end up becoming a mother, especially to a new sapient species, but she was happy to find she actually prefer it, compared to taking care of a young pony. It was kind of like taking care of her other animals, but in a more special way. She pondered how the meeting with the Princess will go. She shook her head. Everything will turn out fine and the adoption will become official, and she and her friends will finally give this poor human a family.
