Rise of Friendship

It was a dark night, the stars having dimmed heavily and the moon is darkened tonight, having waned into a new moon. Very unusual, but the heavens are not controlled, especially with King Discord ruling, so no one freaks out. After all, it's probably just Discord's latest "prank." But it's not, and tonight is no ordinary night at all.

A bright flash lights up the sky, then everything is dim again. On the ground, in the middle of a farmer's field, lies a wailing white foal with quad-colored flowing hair. Moments pass and another flash. Next to the first foal is a dark blue one with flowing hair like the night sky.

The lights in the sky wink out while colored stardust swirls in the sky, calming the foals as they are wrapped in a viel of magic before being teleported to the doorstop of the farmer who owned the field they were born on. As the magic and stardust  dissipate, their cries return in force, waking the couple and their workers inside the small house.

The married owners open the door and gape at what they are greeted with: two abandoned foals with magical manes. These are very special childeren. But where are their parents? You, whispers a male voice in their heads. They glance at each other to confirm that they both heard it. They stare at the foals and wonder what to call them. Princess Celestia... a female voice says as they look at the white filly.  ...and... Princess Luna...[/] she adds when they turn to the blue filly. They gape at the names... and the titles! *Keep them safe until destiny calls, the male says before the foals' hair turns to more natural pink and blue, respectively.*

They gape at each other for a moment before bringing in the foals and nurturing them. They know that they harbor the only thing that can stop Discord, and he would wipe them out if he ever finds out. They will protect them until their magic returns. They will help the coming rulers of Equestria.
