It All Begins With a Spark

CHAPTER 5

Age: 1

Azure Bliss rubbed her her eyes as she placed Creative Spark back into his crib, he had awoken Azure for a late night feeding, as he seemed to do most nights almost like clockwork. Azure had found that she loved caring for her adopted son, even if he could be a pain some of the time. Azure loved spending time with him, she took him on walks, she played with him, and she read to him, their life was perfect. Azure had taught Creative Spark his first words just a month ago, he learned fast, and his favorite word seemed to to be 'mama', which hurt a little deep inside of her. Though Azure loved her adopted son, she was afraid of having to tell Creative the truth, that she was not really his mother and she didn't know who his real parents were. Azure could only hope that Creative would forgive her for keeping the secret from him.

Age: 8

Creative Spark was knocked onto his back as a piece of the device he was working on blew-up in his face.

"Ow. Well at least it wasn't as bad as last time." Creative said as he got up and dusted himself off.

Creative Spark heard the sound of his mother, Azure Bliss, coming down the stairs, no doubt to investigate what Creative had done this time.

"Creative, are you alright?" She asked.

"Yeah mom, I'm fine." Creative said with an awkward smile, his face was covered in black stuff from the device.

Azure raised her eyebrow with a smirk, "Right, well let's get your face cleaned up, and fix your hair." she said pulling out a cloth rag and a comb.

Creative spark went over to his mother, she always took care of him and Creative knew that no matter what she would always be there for him.

"Hey, mom?" Creative asked.

"Yeah kiddo?" Azure responded.

"Do you think that we could hang out together for the rest of the day?" Creative asked.

"Sure sweety." Azure said with a smile as she nuzzled Creative Spark.

Age: 11

Creative Spark was working on his latest invention to help his mom recover from her recent illness. He wasn't going to give up on his mother even if the doctors she had gone to had, his anger at those doctors fueled his drive to succeed. Just then, Azure Bliss came down the stairs.

"Creative, why don't you take a break, you've been down here for almost a full day." Azure said putting a hoof on her son's shoulder.

"Sorry mom, I can't stop now, this is going to help you out a lot. I'm not giving up on you." Creative said not looking up from his work.

"I'm fine right now, Creative, but you need a break, get some rest or you might pass out on the floor." Azure said.

"I know I should, but I just can't, I can't sleep thinking about losing you." Creative responded.

"Please." Azure said in a tone Creative had barely ever heard her use.

Creative Spark froze, whenever his mother used that tone she was truly concerned.

"Alright, let's get something to eat then." Creative Spark said turning around to go along with his mother.
