A study in humility, Twilight’s week as a foal

Chapter 4

The foalsitter becomes the foalsat. ‘

“WHAT I AM A FOAL NOW!?!” yelled Cadence as she was breathing rapidly

“Yes.” Replied Celestia as she tried to calm the filly pegacorn down.

“So, now we got to take care of two of them?” Asked Rarity

“No this can’t be real i can’t be a foal” Cadence said tearing up a little

“Well the fun had been doubled.” Giggled Pinkie as she checked on Twilight.

“Well looks like my threat was put into action by Twilight” Celestia said

“But how, my magic doesn’t work?” Cried Twilight as Pinkie had brought Twilight back

“Magical discharge darling remember” Said Rarity

“But something like this?” Replied Twilight

“You’re the element of magic hun, i never told you this, but you once changed your parents into plants in a magical outburst exactly like this one during your entrance exam, it’s what made me so sure that you were quite a special Unicorn, so it’s not a surprise that this has happened. Magic is unpredictable when it it’s uncontrolled,and with your raw amounts and the state you’re in it was only a little one this time” Explained Celestia

“SO IS THIS PERMANENT, I MEAN NOW NOT ONLY WILL WE HAVE TO HIDE HIS LITTLE SISTER BUT HIS WIFE!” Wailed Cadence at the top of her little lungs.

“Don’t worry i just sent a letter telling him you had to leave town for your royal duties and i am sending him on a little vacation so it is safe to go outside” Said Celestia rocking her niece

“ So now what do we do?” Asked Fluttershy

“Well we first make sure that we get her everything she need’s now as well.” Replied Celestia as she lied Cadence down of the changing table.

“Well now we have two foal’s to play with now it is two two two times the fun” Exclaimed Pinkie while bouncing”

“Pinkie you shouldn’t do that before Twilight.” Began Celestia before Twilight threw up all over her.

“ Oops.” Giggled Pinkie as she handed Twilight to Rarity and went to clean herself off.

“ Wait this can’t be real i am not a foal Aunt Celestia” Cadence said while wiggling around

“ You can’t escape this Cadence, all we can do it wait for it to wear off.” Explained Celestia as she finished diapering Cadence and put her in a light pink jumper.

“No way take this jumper off me now!” Demanded Cadence

“Sorry, but no, just like Twilight you are now in the body of a foal, and we must keep you warm.” Celestia explained

“How is this even fair to me or Twilight?” Asked Cadence waving her hooves in the air.

“”Life isn’t always fair Cadence, you should know that, but as for Twilight now she has someone to play with.” Replied Celestia.

“No way in Tartarus in i’m i going to run around the castle like a foal, i have some pride as a Princess.” Snapped Cadence

“Not anymore.” Giggled Twilight as noticed the bulge starting to form in the back of Cadence’s jumper. “You’re all messy now.” She finished as Cadence blushed deeply.

“No, I, This can’t be, don’t you laugh at me!” Cried Cadence as Celestia sat her back on the changing table to clean her up. “Well now who was it that said that Twilight couldn’t use the bathroom, had no teeth, and looked like a foal, so she was a foal.” Smiled Celestia finishing up her work. “Well now that applies to you.” Finished Celestia putting Cadence in the crib while Rarity lowered Twilight into it as well.

“ We should let Princess Luna know about this right?” Asked Pinkie having returned from the bathroom.”

“Yes, but can you do that Pinkie, i’m not certain that Luna will listen to anything i say right now. Said Celestia putting both Cadence and Twilight asleep before anything could happen.

“Okie doki loki.” Giggled Pinkie as she galloped down the hall towards the throne room.

“Well we could always have fun with this.” Said Celestia after Pinkie returned with Luna who did not look amused.

“ Well at least i know what my niece looked like as a child now.” Sighed Luna as she couldn’t help but smile at the sight of the two foals sleeping together.

“I wonder if we were that cute when we were foals?” Mused Celestia as she wrapped a wing around Luna. “I’m sorry for earlier Lulu.”

“Me too, Tia.” Said Luna as she reciprocated the action.

“So how long do you think she’ll be a foal?” Asked Rarity as the others joined the Princesses.

“I don’t know how long but maybe we should sleep for the night as it is getting late.” Said Celestia

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

“I’m sorry this happened to you Cadence.” Said Twilight as the two of them snuggled a little bit.

“It’s okay Twilight it wasn’t your fault it just happened.” Sighed Cadence leaning over the side of the crib a bit even though she couldn't get out.

“I’m kinda glad though. Now i don’t have to feel so alone in this.

“Twilight you are never alone me and aunt Celestia and Luna and all of your friends are here for you” Said Cadence

“Yes I know that, but what i meant is you didn’t know what i was going though, Well Princess Celestia did,but none of you others.” Explained Twilight as she began to yawn a little.

“I think you're sleepy aren't you Twi” giggled Cadence

“Yeah, aren’t you?” Asked Twilight as she laid back on the pillow.

“Not really, but i can't get out of this crib, so i might as well lay back down.” Replied Cadence as she regained her hold on Twilight.”

“Good Night Sis.” Said Twilight figuring it be kinda cute to say.

“Good night Little sister.” Replied Cadence and the two of them fell asleep.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Celestia walked into the nursery having just raised the Sun and noticed the position that the two of the were in. “Aww how precious!” Cooed Celestia “It would seem that something really good is going to happen because this, i’d bet my bottom bit that by the end of this they’ll be closer than ever.

“Morning Princess” Said Twilight yawning

“Good morning Twilight, be careful though don’t wake up Cadence if you can avoid it.” Said Celestia as the Pink Pegacorn sat up as well.

“Already awake thank you very much” Said Cadence

“A bit cranky this morning.” Giggled Celestia

“More a bit annoyed being awake this early in the morning.” Hissed Cadence

Celestia then began to laugh a little. “Lesson number one Twilight, whether they be a Alicorn or just a Pegacorn never wake a Princess up early, we aren’t morning ponies.”

“I know that Princess Celestia” Said Twilight as she rolled her eyes.

“Well be that as it may it seems like we have two cranky ponies, and they probably need their diapers changed.” Said Luna as entered the room behind Celestia having finished whatever it was she had need to do after setting the moon.”

“I DO NO-”Argued Cadence before she noticed a smell coming from her.

“Told you.” Singsonged Luna as she Levitated Cadance out of the crib. “You take Twilight while i get her.” Finished Luna.

“I am slowly dying inside.” Said Cadence hiding her face in shame.

“Come on hun no different than it was when Tia used to change you back when you really were a foal.” Giggled Luna as she took off the sleeper and changed Cadence. She then slipped Cadence into a mini version of her wedding dress that Rarity had made last night for her before going to sleep.

“I know the feeling Cadence.” Said Twilight

“ I know why you seemed so upset the first time now.” Replied Cadence having been sat on the ground.

“Don’t you look cute.” Cooed Celestia

“I know right, if only we could regress Shining Armor and do this; they’d make such a cute couple.” Giggled Luna putting her hoof in front of the mouth.

“LUNA” shouted Celestia “That is a genius idea i wish i did not send him on that vacation” She added

“Don’t you have some kind of spell that allows you to track him?” Asked Luna

“It’s too dangerous to use” Said Celestia

“Well darn.” Huffed Luna as Twilight and Cadence visibly calmed down

“Well at least you can’t get him back to see me” Said Cadence with relief in her voice

“I always get my best ideas at the wrong times.” Pouted Luna as she snapped a hoof in annoyance.

“Ya well either way you just a dummy Aunt Luna for thinking that” Cadence snapped back

“I know, i’m starting to wonder who’s worse them or Rarity.” Giggled Twilight as she high hoofed Cadence.

“Ok now i think we all need some food” Said Celestia while separating Luna and Cadence

“Food sounds good.” Said Twilight as she started to follow the two Alicorn to the Dining hall

“Indeed, but here a problem we only have one high chair, and if anyone’s get it it’s Twilight.” Giggled Cadence proud of her self for remembering this fact.

“I will get you back for that Cadence” Said Twilight when their was a flash of light “That is how say something like that again and Shining Armor will see this” She added while laughing

“Don’t worry Twilight, She forgets that Luna and i were once foals as well, they may be old but stuff has been well preserved.” Replied Celestia as she made a mental note to remember to use that picture as levrage when Cadance acted up.

“What do you mean by that Princess?” Asked Twilight

“It means that there are two perfectly good high chairs down in the storage, and it would only be too easy to bring them up here.” Explained Celestia a manic gleam in her eye.

“I’m in for it now aren’t i?” Sighed Cadence as Celestia whispered something in Luna’s ear.

“Oh Tia, You are so deliciously evil sometimes.” Laughed Luna as she teleported away.

“What are you planning Aunt Celestia?” Asked Cadence worriedly

“Let’s just say you thought we were as bad as Rarity, well your great Aunt Solar Star was twice as bad as Rarity or we could ever be.” Celestia chuckled

“Ok and what does that have to do with anything” Said Cadence as Luna returned with a box.

“The high chairs are set up Tia.” Smiled Luna as she opened the box.

Inside were some of the most girlish foal clothes you could ever image in stunning white and midnight blue with stars.

“Oh i can’t wait Tia!” Squealed Luna with delight. “After breakfast you know what you two are going to do with us?” Whispered Luna in the two fillies ears.

“Dress up makeovers!” Squeal the Royal pony sisters as they dragged the two fillies into the kitchen.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

“Ohhhhh no i am not going to wear that” Protested Cadence

“You don’t have a choice.” Replied Luna as Celestia held Cadence still with her magic. Meanwhile Twilight tried to escape but was also caught in Celestia golden aura.

“Do i have to Princess” Asked Twilight giving a pair of puppy-dog eyes.

“Yes.” Replied Celestia as she slid one of Luna’s old outfits and bonnet on Twilight.

“Why are you putting this on me i did nothing wrong” Said Twilight

“She’s right Tia, she didn’t give us any trouble.” Replied Luna as she slid the pink lacy booties of the outfit on Cadence’s feet

“Aww, but Luna i wanna see Twilight in your old clothes.” Said Celestia pouting a little.

“Fine i guess either way they are stuck like this for a little bit” Said Luna as Cadence began to cry.

“ This isn’t fair i look stupid like this!” She wailed as she tried break Luna’s magical hold on her.

Aw, but Cadence you look so adorable.” Said Celestia as she sat Twilight down.

“I no adowable.” Sobbed Cadence starting to talk in baby talk

“It seems like it’s Cadence’s turn to be a baby.” Said Luna as she started to try and calm Cadence down

“No notta baby, i’m a Pwincess.” Wailed Cadence. “Want Shining Armor!”

“I’m sorry honey, Shining Armor isn’t here.” Luna replied rocking Cadence.

“WANT SHINING ARMOR!” Bawled Cadence beginning to wave her hooves in the air wildly.

“What do i do Tia?” Asked Luna as nothing she did worked to calm the sobbing filly.

“I have an idea.” Said Celestia as she left the room and came back about ten minutes later to Cadence ripping Luna mane out.

“I hope whatever it is you’re planning works out, I don’t know how much more i can take.” Cried Luna at her wit’s end.

“Here hun.” Cooed Celestia as she wrapped Cadence in a blanket from their shared room, and his scent calmed her down instantly.

“Can I have something of my brother’s too?” Asked Twilight as Celestia wrapped her in a blanket as well smiling.

“I knew you would ask, Now how about a nap for the two of you.” Said Celestia as she put a pacifier in each foal’s mouth.

“Yesh.” Said Twilight starting to drift off as she suckled while Cadence had already fallen asleep wrapped in her lover’s blanket.

“Ok good now have a good nap you two” Said Celestia as she put Twilight in the crib.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

A few hours had past since Twilight and Cadence had fallen asleep, Luna and Celestia
were eating lunch together and chatting.

“I’m glad that Alicorn’s don’t truly need to sleep.” Said Luna taking a bite out of the croissant she had just buttered.

“Indeed, I’m sorry about this Luna.” Said Celestia as the servents took her plates away, and she stood up.

“Don’t worry about it Tia, I mean i can only imagine how many sleepless nights you had while i was gone.” Said Luna brushing off Celestia’s apology

“Oh trust me you don’t even know” Said Celestia

“Probably don’t want to either.” Chuckled Luna as she finished and came up next to her sister. “So shall we see what the other’s are doing, or should be see If Twilight and Cadence have woken up?” Asked Luna

“Yes let us go and check on them Luna” Said Celestia opening the door and following her sister out of the dining hall.

“You know Luna i sort of had an idea last night.” Said Celestia as the two sister’s walked through the halls towards the guest chambers.

“Oh and what was that Tia?” Asked Luna turning to Celestia but watching where she was going through her peripheral vision.

“There’s always been a part of me that’s thought that Cadence grew up too fast. I mean we don’t really know what happened to her parents, and so i raised her myself, but she always seemed like she was in a rush, and so i think this is a good thing for her and...”

“And what Tia. Don’t tell me you plan on making her transformation permanent?” Gasped Luna

“Of course not Luna, but i was thinking maybe we should give the others the same chance, To see how Twilight Sparkle is feeling, and just maybe have a chance to spend a day in a life that maybe they never got to have because they were too busy trying to grow up.” Explained Celestia.

“Well we really should discuss this with them, I mean they might not want to do it.” Said Luna as they reached the door to the guest room.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Celestia and Luna walked into the nursery to see Twilight and Cadence still asleep while Twilight was gumming Cadence’s wing in her sleep

“They look cute together.” Said Rarity “It’s an intriguing idea, a day as a foal alongside Twilight. Would it make us that much closer, i do wonder.”

“I don’t know but you woke me up.” Said Twilight

“Oh I’m sorry darling.” Said Rarity as she levitated Twilight out of the crib slowly as to not wake Cadence up.

“It’s okay, but who came up with that idea?” Asked Twilight as Rarity handed Twilight over to Celestia.

“I did, i was thinking you looked so happy with having someone be with you in this that i thought i’d ask your friends if they wanted the chance to be foals again for a day, and maybe get a chance to have the childhood that they may have never gotten before, I know Rainbow Dash didn’t.” Smirked Celestia as she turned to the Rainbow maned Pegasus.

“How did you know, I, I’ve never told anyone.” Said Rainbow Dash turning away a bit.

“ Luna isn’t the only one who can visit dreams Rainbow Dash, You dream of saving Scootaloo, and giving her the life you never had.”

“Ya i do want to take the squirt in but i won’t be home everyday when she gets out of school to fly her up to my house.” Said Rainbow

“Indeed, you’re not really ready for all of that yet anyways, You’ll have to get over your parent’s deaths before you can be a good parent anyways.

“I am over their death but as i told you i can not fly her up there when she gets out of school.” said Rainbow getting annoyed

“Okay,okay.” Said Celestia seeing that she was going into something that Rainbow wasn’t quite ready to talk about yet.

“Hey is anypony going to help me out”Asked Cadence

“Oh sorry hun, didn't notice you were awake.” Said Celestia Picking up Cadence and sitting her on the floor.

“Don’t talk me like i am a foal” Pouted Cadence

“Ok, Cadenza.” Laughed Celestia as she knew Cadence hated that name

“Don’t call me that” Said Cadence

“ It would seem like your back with us.” Said Luna

“Me no foal.” Cadence said

“Of course not you’re a big pony.” Giggled Celestia at her niece. “That’s why you’re wearing my foal clothes."

“What’s going on with her?” Asked Twilight

“She’s still slightly regressed Twilight, so she’ll act like this for a little while longer.” Explained Celestia.

“Well that is dumb i think” Said Twilight

“ This affects Cadence in the same way as it does you Twilight, so she’s subject to random mental regression as well.” Said Luna as Twilight stared at Cadence beginning to suck on her hoof.

“ So when she becomes upset she’ll start acting like a foal like me?” Asked Twilight

“Yes, but we don’t think it’ll be as bad with her as it is with you, seeing as how me and Tia think that the magical blast that changed her was just a small amount of the excess magic that is keeping you this way, and so Cadence will change back faster then you will both mentally and physically.” Said Luna explaining her and Celestia’s theory.

“WHAT THAT'S NOT FAIR” Yelled Twilight

“Hey don’t forget that if your friends agree to be regressed you won’t be alone for at least a few days.”

“THAT’S NOT THE POINT, THE POINT IS THAT I GET CHANGED BY MAGIC AND I HAVE TO STAY THIS WAY TILL GOODNESS KNOWS WHEN, AND CANDENCE GETS OFF EASY!” Continued Twilight being to rant and wave her hooves wildly.

“Ok Twilight please calm down” Asked Celestia

“CALM DOWN HOW CAN I CALM DOWM I”M....” Began Twilight before Celestia forced a pacifier in her mouth.

Twilight began to try and spit the pacifier out, but Celestia had enchanted it so she could not, nor could she talk around it.

“Now i just need you calm Twilight please” Said Celestia in a calm tone

Slowly Twilight’s breathing began to slow and Celestia took the pacifier out.

“Sorry.” Said Twilight “I lost my cool there for a minute.”

“It’s okay Twilight it happens to all of us sometimes.” Said Celestia petting the foal’s mane and putting her down.

“So what about food i am starving” said Twilight

“Yes, you two haven’t had anything to eat since breakfast, but instead of going all the way back to the kitchens i think i have a better idea this time.” Said Celestia opening a small mini fridge that the other’s hadn’t noticed before and bring out two bottles of milk.

“Ugh, do we have to?” Asked Twilight as Cadence started to cry in hunger.

“Just grin and bear with it this time Twilight, Cadence needs something now.” Replied Luna as she took one of the bottles and placed it in Cadence’s mouth.

“Fine, i understand.” Said Twilight opening her mouth so that Celestia could feed her.”

“There that wasn’t so bad now was it?” Asked Celestia as Twilight just rolled her eyes

“You know you look really cute when you do that.” Teased Celestia as she put her down on the changing table to check her diaper.

“ You know i only take this from you because i have no choice.” Grumbled Twilight as Cadence was laid next to her.

“Well, i’m taking care of you so i can tease you all i want.” Said Celestia squishing Twilight’s face between her hooves.

“Luna next time she botches a spell let me know so i can get back at her.” Smiled Twilight as Celestia had finished Changing her and had put her back on the floor.

“Well i am not really a foal Princess you know that” Twilight pouted

“I know, but it doesn’t mean i can’t have a little fun with this.” Replied Celestia

“Do you want me to be calm or not” said Twilight

“ Okay, okay. You do have a point there, i’ll stop.” Said Celestia and Twilight Smiled.

“Aww but i want you little cutie pie” Snickered Luna

“ I seem to remember a little nickname Cadence had for Twilight when she was a foal.” Said Celestia turning to Luna.

“You wouldn’t dare.” Hissed Twilight as Luna smiled ear to ear.

“ Oh do tell Tia.” Giggled Luna bouncing on her hoofs a little

“ Twilight Tinkle” Laughed Celestia as Twilight hid her face in shame.

“Oh i remember that.” Said Cadence smiling a bit. “It was back with Twilight was being potty trained and she would end up having an accident in her training pants.

“ Aww did wittle Twilight have trouble learning not to widdle awl over.” Smirked Rainbow as Twilight’s horn began to glow

“SHUT UP RAINBOW DASH I AM NOT A LITTLE FOAL” Twilight yelled tears welling up in her eyes and Rainbow Dash went flying out of the room.

“Damn it, can’t you take a joke!” Snapped Rainbow Dash as she flew back in the room, and put her hoof in Twilight’s face.

“RAINBOW DASH” Yelled Celestia

“Well i’m tired of it, you guys can say almost anything you want, but when i do i end up going flying.” Huffed Rainbow Dash

“YOU SAY THE WRONG THINGS YOU....YOU” Twilight said breaking down in tears and her horn began to glow again and Rainbow began to shrink.

“Wait what’s happening to me!” Exclaimed Rainbow Dash her voice going up a few octaves and her Cutie mark disappeared.

“Well i can’t say i did not warn you.” Celestia said

“But i don’t want.” Began Rainbow Dash.

“Though, You kept teasing her, and now you’re paying the price. The spell she’s casting is reversible, but you know what i’m not going to do it until you’ve learned a lesson Rainbow Dash.” Celestia cut off Rainbow Dash’s protest and watched as Cadence grew older as Rainbow grew younger.

“Ya well your a troll you know that” Rainbow Dash said to Celestia

“A Troll? I’m not a Troll i’m a Pony.” Said Celestia unsure of what Trolls had to do with any of this.

“Princess, it’s a slang for someone who pulls mean jokes on someone.” Explained Rarity having being into fashion kept up with the modern ways of slang even if she thought it uncouth.

“YA YOU HEARD ME YOU ARE A T-R-O-L-L” The rainbow maned filly shouted

“I think you need to have your eyes checked Rainbow, i’m not the one who teased my friend to the point where out of annoyance she turned me into a foal.” Replied Celestia beginning to find the filly annoying.

“You are a troll, troll, troll, troll.” Repeated Rainbow Dash sticking her tongue out at Celestia.

“That’s it!” Shrieked Celestia as she grabbed Rainbow Dash and started to paddle her flank.

“Stop that” Rainbow Dash said while kicking when she ended up hitting Celestia in the wing.

“You did not just do what i think you did.” Hissed Celestia voice full of venom.

“Oh Shi--” Began Rainbow before she found herself in a dark gold aura.

“Oh no you messed up Rainbow Dash” Twilight said watching Celestia walk away with the foal

“ I like you Rainbow Dash, so i’ll let you off easy, but the last Pony who ever touched my wings without permission well... Let’s just say they're not around anymore.” Grinned Celestia as she strapped the cyan filly down in Luna’s old highchair. “You’re still not going to like what i do to you though. Fluttershy be a dear and tell me what Rainbow hates to eat most in the world.”

“Asparagus.” Meeped out Fluttershy terrified.

“Ah yes that is a bad one, and with her taste buds now being extra sensitive, she’ll hate it even worse.” Cackled Celestia as she walked to the Kitchens and returned a few minutes with a large bowl of a dark green goo.

“I’m not eating that!” Said Rainbow Dash clenching her mouth shut.

“Oh really?” Smirked Celestia plucking one of her shorter feathers and coming ever closer to Rainbow Dash as she watched on in terror.

“Coochi coochi coo.” Laughed Celestia as she put the bowl down on the tray and began to tickle Rainbow Dash’s hoof with the feather.

Bwa ha ha ack.” Laughed Rainbow before Celestia put the spoon into her mouth.

This is going to be hell. Thought Rainbow Dash as she choked down the horrid vegetable.
