Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Princess Twilight Sparkle was currently looking over the rules and regulations the EPA provided her when suddenly, the entire stack was knocked over by a thrown Red Rook Piece. "Cozy Glow, that's the fifth time you've done that." The purple alicorn said, annoyed.

"Because my mom knew you'd do this." Cozy Glow said. "And she told me to tell you to screw these rules. The EPA WANTS you to follow these rules. It's the best way they can ensure that you don't make the best friendship school possible." She added.

"Wait...they know about how by the book I like to be?" Twilight asked, surprised.

"Duh! They keep up to date on all the princesses of Equestria. You included, Future Headmare Twilight." Cozy Glow said. "Which is why I'm here, to make sure they don't win; you do." She added.

Twilight smile. "One of these days, I HAVE to meet your mother. She sounds like she really knows her stuff." She said.

"Oh boy, if only you knew..." Cozy Glow said.

"What was that?" Twilight asked.

"Nothing. Listen, you and your friends have their own way of teaching friendship, so build off of that. Ignore these by the book rules. After all, you want to show up the EPA. And the best way you can do that, is show them that their methods are outdated as Equestria moves in to make friends with our neighbors." Cozy Glow said and then tapped the rule books. "These rules are for an equestria that only pays attention to ponies, but now that Changelings are part of our culture with Dragons, Griffons, Hippogriffs, and Yaks becoming friends with ponies as well, Equestria is moving past being just for ponies now." She explained.

"You're really smart Cozy Glow. Who helped you be so smart?" Amiticia asked.

"My mother. In addition to making sure I was every bit as smart as her growing up, she made sure I had plenty of friends my own age." Cozy Glow said.

"Your mother sounds like a nice mare." Twilight said.

"She is. In my eyes, there's no body nicer. Tartarus, I really couldn't ask for a better mother." Cozy Glow said. The rest of the mane 6 soon showed up.

"Girls? What are you doing here?" Twilight asked.

"Cozy Glow called us. Not exactly sure how she managed to figure out where'd we were and when we'd be there." Applejack said.

"Is it okay if I'm a bit spooked by that?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Uh...no. In this case I think we are all spooked by that fact." Fluttershy said.

"...That just makes it worse." Rainbow Dash said.

"Look, you and Princess Twilight are friends, and no way is she making a school of friendship without her best friends as the teachers. And trust me, Future Headmare Twilight: Your friends will make better teachers for friendship then whoever you could higher." Cozy Glow said.

"...She's got a point you know. How does she have such a good point? How is she so good at this?" Pinkie Pie asked though she was talking fairly fast.

"You'd be surprised, Pinkie Pie." Cozy Glow said.

"How in tarnation did she follow that?" Applejack asked.

"I could tell you Applejack, but then that'd be spoilers, and your friend Pinkie Pie HATES spoilers." Cozy Glow said.

"I am getting more spooked by the minute." Rainbow Dash said.

"Sorry for spooking you so much. But don't worry, I'm only here to help you all with the school situation, and then once everything is squared away, I'll be going back home." Cozy Glow said.

"You're so different." Fluttershy said. "I can't describe how, but you just seem so different." She said.

"I could tell you how, but like I said, massive spoilers." Cozy Glow said, taking out a red rook piece. "Like I said though, I'm only here to help." She added.

"Well so long as your around to help, we should really get to know each other quite well darling." Rarity said.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but I already know everything about each and every one of the Mane Six and those related to them. Speaking of, where is Starlight? She was supposed to come too." Cozy Glow said.

"Present!" Starlight said. "I was just chatting with some building instructors. But how am I going to help the school?" She asked.

"That's easy: You're going to be the guidance consoler for the students." Cozy Glow said. "Now then, shall we get started? Each one of the mane six is going to be teaching your own classes based on the element of harmony you represent." She added.

"How in Equestra does one teach loyalty?" Rainbow Dash asked.

Cozy Glow put a basketball in the cyan pegasus's hooves. "Easy: Sports. It's the closest thing to teaching loyalty. As many sports and sport-like activity help build teamwork and comradery." The Pink Pegasus said. "Mom helped me figure out the best way for each of you to teach your own elements. Including Future Headmare Twilight for when she teaches classes." She added.

"You've got it all figure out don't you? And who exactly is your mother anyways?" Applejack asked.

"That is yet another spoiler. I'd tell you; honest to celestia I would; but I simply cannot." Cozy Glow said. "So, I can't tell you." She added.

"Well no matter, I am glad your here, Cozy Glow." Twilight said.

You have no idea Twilight... Cozy Glow thought to herself; the Pink Pegasus took out a purple star keychain for a brief moment when no one was looking at her. ...You really have no idea... Cozy Glow added to her thoughts as she put the keychain away.


Author's Note

Some clues are being dropped about this universe's version of Cozy Glow. So, does anyone have any guesses as to who her mother is? Or is the answer just too obscure right now? Please do not leave an actual guess in the comments if you would.
