Drabble 1A: Still Our Son
Harry was so excited! His mommy was due to give birth any day now! All he knew was that his daddy had put a baby in mommy and it was coming out soon! He hoped for a little brother!
Why are they moving my stuff? Harry thought as he came to the top of the stairs and saw some Earth Pony movers moving things like his dresser and comic book collection out of his room. Oh no. Was Tiara right? He thought in panic.
Two days ago...
"You know your "mom and dad" are just going to forget you right?" The earth pony filly sneered.
"Nuh uh." Harry insisted. The unicorn foal a bit unsure though.
"Ya huh, it happened to Joyful Noise last year. His mommy and daddy got a new foal and he vanished. Know why? They forgot he existed. So he just, disappeared into thin air. Pity, you might have been cute enough to date." The purple filly and her friend laughed as they left Harry with a worried expression.
"I thought Joyful Noise got accepted at the Canterlot Chorus Academy." Applebloom said as they walked by while listening in."
"Yeah, right after he got his cutie mark that looks like a musical note and-" Sweetie Belle's voice said before Harry walked away thinking about things at home. His mommy and daddy had been a bit secretive lately.
Present...
"Where do ya want us to put all this?" A rough sounding voice came from the dark brown Earth Pony stallion who was hauling Harry's dresser.
"That room down the hall." Carrot Cake said. I can't wait for Harry to see his new room. The orange maned stallion thought. He'll be so happy. Harry's new room was going to be themed from his favorite superhero. BatColt. The Dark Knight, protector of Canterlot from the most underhanded of criminals and thugs.
That's a storage room. Harry thought with despair. "I don't wanna disappear!" He shouted to the confusion of the three stallions before he ran down the stairs crying.
"What in Celestia's name has gotten into that boy?" Carrot asked outloud.
"I don't wanna vanish into thin air!" Came from down stairs.
"Oh boy. Typical behavior of expectant siblings." Said the older stallion who was pulling the dresser knowingly.
"What?" Carrot Cake asked in confusion.
"Vanishing Syndrome. The foal thinks that the parents won't want them anymore and they'll vanish. Usually brought on by teasing from an oustide source."
Downstairs...
"What on Equestria?" Mrs. Cake asked as Harry ran out the door in tears shouting "I don't wanna vanish into thin air!"
Carrot Cake soon ran downstairs. "Did Harry just come down here?"
"He just ran out the door shouting-"
"I know what he said. We could hear him upstairs sugarlump. I gotta find him and explain. We should have just told him we where giving him a bigger room." The yellow coated Earth pony ran a hoof down his muzzle. "I'll be back soon hun."
"What in tarnation?" Applejack asked as Harry ran past her and Applebloom.
"I don't wanna disappear!"
"Applebloom? Do you know anything about that?" Applejack asked curiously.
"Diamond Tiara." Was all Applebloom said with a snarl.
" 'K. I gotcha." Applejack said as she watched Harry run off.
Carrot Cake ran through Ponyville. Harry was no where in sight. "Did he really vanish?" Carrot asked himself in confusion. Then he heard sniffling. He looked over at a park bench near the lake and saw Harry sitting there.
"Thing's have been a bit better huh?" Carrot Cake asked his adopted son.
"You and Mommy don't want me anymore. I'm just going to disappear."
"That's horse pucky." Carrot Cake insisted. "Son, your getting a bit big for the room your in right now. So we moved all the stuff out of the storage room and redecorated it. That's why we wouldn't let you go get things from it for us for the past month." The yellow earth pony revealed. Harry looked up at him with wet eyes. "We're giving the baby your current room cause a baby doesn't need all that space understand?"
"So you and Mommy aren't throwing me away because you have a new foal now?" Harry asked.
"Of course not." Carrot hugged his son to him. "We'd never throw you away. Come on, Mommy's probably worried sick and that's not good for the baby."
"I'm sorry Daddy." Harry hugged back.
"That's alright son. Its okay." The two watched the sun set over the lake before going back to Sugarcube Corner.
"Ooo Carrot." Cup Cake groaned as the two heard a splash. " I think its time!"
"My little brother's here!" Harry said excitedly.
"Oh my Celestia." Carrot Cake said in shock.
To Be Continued in Drabble 1B...
Happy Hearts and Hooves Day everypony! Here's a new series of short little fluffy drabbles with a plot I came up with after watching Baby Cakes. Harry was found outside Sugarcube Corner one rainy night after the Big AK and was raised by Cup and Carrot Cake. These first two Drabbles start before and during Baby Cakes. Where Harry is feeling insecure about being adopted. Also some fluffy sibling moments between Harry, Pound and Pumpkin Cake will be in Drabble 1B.
Joyful Noise is my OC pony. He is a unicorn with Shining Armor's color of mane for his coat, and a white mane/tail. His Cutie Mark is a musical note with three stars in a triangle shape surrounding it. He was accepted into the Royal Canterlot Academy for the Musically Gifted. Also Known As the Canterlot Chorus Academy. Here's a little trivia, he was originally a filly. If you want to use Joyful Noise in a fic you may, but please give me credit for him.
