Chapter 1 : the new parents
Whispers. that's all I heard as I headed to Ms. Trinity's office. I skipped, I hopped, I smiled For the first time sense . . . It happened. I made my through the broken down building almost squealing with joy. Maybe they will be a normal family, with a dad, and mom with a swimming pool. I kept telling my self that, as I smiled and waved to all the other girls who looked with wide eyes and awe.
Two crackling laughs filled the air making me stop. My smile faded . I turned around only to meet Claire and Tina, the meanest, most snooty people to have ever been at the orphanage.
"What are you doing here," I said through gritted teeth. Tina just laughed and patted me on the back.
Claire sneered. "Oh nothing! Just thinking about how fast your new parents are going to return you to the orphanage." Claire said causing Tina to laugh.
grinding my teeth and ignoring them, I kept going.
my life sucks . . .
*~~*~~*~~*~~*
"Oh my i'm so excited!" said a woman hugging her older sister, Her cheeks stained with tears.
"Luna, hush! keep it together." Her sister said shushing her sister. Luna smiled and hugged her.
"I-i'm just so happy y-you let me get a filly!" Tears brimming Luna's eye's and hugging her sister even harder. "Most of all because I-"
"I know, Lulu. And, I remember the weeks you spent asking me if you could adopt."
"Thank you, Tia."

Okay I did not expect my new mom to have blue hair.
So when I entered the room it was really weird when a women with blue hair ran up to me and bear hugged me to death. I never met this person, yet, she cried into my shoulder like I was a close friend.I patted her back awkwardly not really knowing what to do, in tell someone else, who looked somewhat like her only taller and instead had green, blue, pink, and purple in her hair, came by to pull the crazy lady off me.
"I'm sorry about this. My sister is just really excited to meet you," Said the woman looking towards the blue haired lady with a glare. "My names Celestia and this L-"
"MY NAME IS LUNA!" The blue haired lady blurted out then covering her mouth in embarrassment. Sighing the other lady walked up to her and whispered something silently into her ear. Nodding, the blue haired cleared her throat. "I'm terribly sorry about thou's booming voice," Sheesh, whats up with the old-time-y grammar? "And, I'd like to introduce myself again," Sighing I looked at her, my brown eyes meeting her light blue ones.
"My name is Luna," She said, smiling and holding out a hand for me to shake. Looking at her then to the hand I shacked it. The sound of Ms. Trinity clearing her voice snapped all our attention to her. She smiled, pleased to have all eyes on her.
"I'm glad that we all met, but we still need to sign adoption papers," She said matter of fact tone. That's when a question flared in my head. Raising my hand I looked at Ms. Trinity and said:
"Are these both my new moms?" I asked. It really did seem that maybe, just maybe these to we-
"Oh no not at all! I'm your adopted parent. This is just my sister, who came with me to pick you up," Interrupts Luna smiling at me. She seemed nice enough- How does she keep her hair that nice?!I need to learn how to keep my long hair that nice!
"Any way, I'm sure Taylor that you have already packed your bags and have them with you, ready to go" Ms. Trinity said. I only nod a reply before holding out my two bags in front of me.
Nodding in approvel, Ms. Trinity took some papers from her desk and handed them to Luna and Celesta. "Sign here, here, and here," She said pointing to places while Luna tried scribbling her signature as fast as possible." Perfect! Congrats Taylor in being the first daughter in Luna's family!"
I think what creeped me out the most was the fact that instead of walking into a car to drive to wherever they lived, we walked straight into a forest, but hey, I'm not judgmental of where people want to live. So when we walked into The forest following no trial, no map, and holding heavy bags full of my crap, I started getting worried.
Tapping on "moms" shoulder, I quietly asked two important things. "Do you know where we're going? And, do you live out here?"
Celestia, who was in front of the group, turned around and looked at me with amusement."Yes to your first question. No to your second," Then she just flashed me a smile as if saying I was dumb to not know where the heck we were going. I sighed in silent irritation. Why would they take me here if they don't even live here?
That's when I heard whispers coming from the two crazy women in front of me. Getting closer to hear what they were saying I tried my hardest not making a lot of sound.
"Are we there yet?" Came the quiet, yet, anxious voice of Luna.
"Yes, It's right up ahead!" Her sister snapped back.
"Well I don't see it! Point it out to me please."
I wasn't able to hear the rest. Only because I walked into Luna who, for one, Had stopped walking. "Ow," I said absent minded-y. Luna turned around to look at me, worry on her face.
"Are you okay? Did thy hurt you? I'm a horrible mother!" Luna ranted checking me all over. When she did finally finish checking me, her face changed to excitement and joy. "Where here!"
I turned my head to the side to see behind her. And was sadly disappointed to see rocks put in a circle and more woodland.
yep, that's totally where i'm going to live.
"Come on Luna, making the portal will take lots of magic to make," portal? Magic?. I watched as the two, put down my suitcase, grabbed three big rocks, mad a triangle with them, and then watched as they dragged me over to it.
Okay, this is really weird.
Together, Luna and Celestia, sat opposite of each other. they put there hands on two of the bottom rocks and flashed me a smile. I watched them boredom adopting my face much like they adopted me. So, apparently they are attempting....Alchemy? Hmmm. no. Alchemy looks nothing like that, at least, from what Iv'e read in the library. their hands started flashing. maybe they started fireworks while I wasn't looking, but- wait, why is the triangle glowing?
I watched as the bright light grew brighter and before I knew I passed out in confusion.

Luna's POV.
The portal was done. I smiled. This was our ticket back to our world. I was so excited for this, I'm about to take my new daughter to our world! We'll be the best-est of friends and have the greatest times! Taylor will love our land. She'll even get to be a princess! I mean, what girl hasn't dreamed of that before? NONE.
Speaking of Taylor.
"Hey Taylor! The portals ready, get your bags!~" I said in a sing-song-voice.
No answer.
"Come on sweetie~"
No answer.
"Luna! Come here, it's Taylor!" I turned around. Celestia was kneeling in front of the portal, Taylor, unconscious in her arms. I screamed and ran to her side.
"Taylor! can you hear me?! please answer!" Hot tears ran down my face. I heard Celestia laugh- I turned toward her with a glare. "How dare'th thee laugh at thy dead daughter!" I howled in rage, my accent kicking in.
"She's not dead. she just fainted," Celestia said, pulling me into a hug. I snuggled into her hug and sighed when Celestia didn't move. "I know it scared you, but we must take her home with us now. Besides it will be easier for her to get into the portal this way."
I nodded. I then stood up, Taylor still in my arms, and walked towards the portal. I called back to Celestia who was getting up. "Grab her bags for me will you? I'll meet you in the castle."
And with that the story of Taylor, daughter of Princess Luna, began.
