Chapter 1: Aiden's New Day
A world, one we may know as Equestria. A colorful and magical world ruled by five breeds of ponies. The great fliers and conquerors of the skies, the Pegasus as well as the ruling powerful brutes of land, the normal earth ponies. Along the great earth ponies there were the crystal ponies, they shared an earth ponies appearance accept for their beautiful crystal coats. Finally there were the unicorns, ultimate conjurers of magic and power, only out matched with the most powerful of all breeds.
Alicorns, the greatest of all the breeds of ponies, the ponies of flight and very powerful magic. Four of which rule the world while a fifth had been born a year ago. These Alicorns are princesses, friendly, smart, powerful, and quite beautiful. As respectful and humble being on level with their beloved subjects, their existence was full of guidance and divine purpose. Even with such titles, they themselves believed they could never be as divine as the ones that came before them.
Their existence, their ability to act civilized and intelligent was all mere teachings to a great creature that wielded all their abilities. This creature discovered them all as mere domestic animals, and had since then tutored them and made them into the sentient beings they are now. This creature they would always, show eternal gratitude for, was known as a human. This however was no mere human, this was a mighty breed of human, known only as an Equine Human.
A race of human that existed only in their world, and they had become the creatures they worshiped and respected entirely. Though as Equestria always worked, they were treated as good friends by the Equines. Unfortunately tragedy came when a mysterious being had darkened and turned on the Equines. In the mere span of a night, almost every Equine human was killed in the night by the traitor. The very last Equine, was dying before the two Alicorns he had taught and loved as his own.
He promised his pupils, Galaxia, and Cosmos, that one day, the Equines may come again. When that happens, they needed to be ready for when the first Equine is born once more. As the final Equine slowly went down like the sunset, the sun then raised at a new dawn, a dawn of the ponies. Knowledge of the humans slowly faded over ten thousand years, the pupils became the great rulers of equestria themselves, king Cosmos, and queen Galaxia.
They had waited for year after year, century after century for the Equine to finally be born. In that very time, they had then cam together and born two daughters, two Alicorn daughters. Ones that would take up the responsibilities of their parents as bringers of day and night, Celestia and Luna. Little did they know, as they would pass while they're daughters would be left to take on their long awaited promise to their human mentor. Shortly after the birth of a fifth Alicorn child, over a year ago, it finally came.
The two Alicorn sisters learned and did not hesitate to go on the search, learning that the long awaited Equine had been born. While their world teetered on the edge of destruction, the sisters had fought their own battle in a world known as earth. Where they found the child that they knew was their Equine human. The boys name was Aiden, a child of two years who they agreed was the most beautiful child to see ever since the birth of their granddaughter.
With the child with them, they had then fought, cried and nearly died trying to save the child from the same evil that was invading their world. Pain, injury, and even loss was endured as the child fought his hardest to survive the evil. At the cost of his earth human parent's, who were killed in the night by the demon that sought his death. Celestia and Luna were pained and never thought they could forgive and forget what happened that night. Though they had finally taken the child and departed back to Aiden's true home.
From that very day on they vowed to never let anything hurt Aiden, he would always be their beloved and divine child. They would give him all the love and affection he could ever want, he would always be safe with them. They would feed him, bathe him, be the best mothers possibly in his eyes. Heck, they even decided that he would always sleep in their arms at night. He was their son in their eyes, their lovable angelic little boy that they would care for the rest of their eternal life, after all Equines too were immortals.
Even as an Equine, he was a son first to them, and no matter what. Nothing would stop them for making every day, month, year and century the best. That very decision and adventure continues to this very day that arrived slowly by Celestia herself. She was perched a top of her castle of stone and gold as she over looked her city, the city of Canterlot. Her white fur was like snow while her matching white horn was glowing and full of golden magic.
She watched the beautiful horizon as her light rainbow mane and tail blew in the wind. She watched her golden orange sun slowly rise through the sky that became orange and purple in color. She was smiling, her own sun reflecting the cutie mark she bared on both sides of her flank. With sun now rising, she could finally relax and disappear in a flash and flurry of gold magic. Her next item on the list, was to go to her sister and their ultimate pride and joy.
Before she knew it, she was in a massive hall way with white tiled floors and golden pillars. Surrounded by historical and priceless decor and items as she now stood outside a large door colored like the night time sky with a crescent moon in the center. She quietly placed a hoof to the door gently, to be sure that the gold royal attire she wore on her hooves, the necklace around her neck and her crown would not make noise. The door opened quietly, and she quickly went inside before shutting the door.
The room was almost pitch black, accept for the large window to the left of a large night themed bed. She changed that with a quick flash of her horn and illuminated the entire room with light from the sun itself. She smiled as every shadow of the room disappearing in the room while she spotted her sister. Princess Luna, the gracious princess and bringer of the night, her curie mark of the crescent moon proved so. Her mane and tail waved in the wind and mimicked the night time sky.
She snuggled and let out a moan of comfort before she awoke slowly with fluttering eyes. Her midnight blue fur was messy, but her smile was approachable and beautiful. Celestia giggled at her sister as she yawned and looked to her two front legs that cradled their most beloved treasure.
"Good morning Luna. I lit the whole room, you can uncover him now. The darkness is gone..."Celestia whispered in the sweetest of motherly voices.
"Thank you... I made sure his dreams were beautiful, and safe,"Luna whispered with her younger and softer voice,"It was all smiles and a peaceful slumber for us both..."
Finally her hooves unraveled and showed the small shining face with lovely blond hair. The face of their beloved Equine human child, Aiden. He was hugging Luna's warm blue chest in regular blue fuzzy pajamas, somewhat like the footy pajamas he had when he first met the sisters. He would never be able to stop hugging them since that day he met them. He nuzzled in her chest before Celestia had finally approached him to the right and leaned in to whisper in his ear.
"Wakey wakey mister Aiden...! A new day is at hand...! A day of fun and adventure...! With friends and family. I am sure,"Celestia sang a little made up song to grace the child's ears and began to work as he yawned,"Time for some breakfast to start your day...! And a nice warm bath, hurray...!"
Finally he rolled to his back on Luna's arm and slowly lifted his eye lids to a rising sun light. Before his eyes made out the ceiling made of night time skies and the two most beautiful faces he ever knew. He broke into a smile before balling up his fists to rub his eyes and let out another yawn. Finally his blue eyes were feeling more awake as he reached out and hugged both muzzles of his mothers. He purred with joys at the embrace as the two then began attacking his head and cheeks with kisses.
"Good morning mommy Tia...! Good morning mommy Luna...!"The boy spoke with the smallest and heart melting voice in the world.
For only being three and a half, his more advance mind was twice that of a normal earth human. He was a learning machine, and his literacy in one year was at least that of an eight year old.
"Good morning Aiden. We hope you slept very well. It's a whole new day...! We're going to have VISITORS from Saddle Arabia...!"Celestia enticed the boy with excitement for impending company from neighboring worlds.
"Really? Are they nice?"Aiden asked while sitting up to rub his eyes more to wake up.
"They are very nice Aiden. They have been begging us to let them come over just to see you."Luna went to get their boy excited as well.
"You mean like all the ponies out there in the city?"He asked and nearly stumped the sisters as they smiled nervously.
After all it was in all honesty, rare that he was brought outside the castle walls into the public. The princesses had always feared a time that some pony or something could bring Aiden harm. Ever since the battle with the Nightmare Master, they had vowed that Aiden would never be near any sort of danger. They have not even let him out of sight since they first got him settled in and legally adopted. The only cost, was that his only true friend he ever made so far, was young Flurry Heart.
As well as The friends of his cousin, and young Alicorn princess, Twilight Sparkle.
"Yes... Maybe after you meet the two friends from Saddle Arabia. We can take you out of the castle for some ice cream."Luna went to try and keep him hopeful and smiling with a small promise.
"But first...! How about we get some breakfast and a nice warm bath,"Celestia suggested while Aiden nodded and looked down to his feet,"The griffons delivered bacon this morning. Bacon and eggs sound nice?"
"Yes! Yes, yes, yes!"Aiden sprung up to his two feet and hopped up and down on the bed in excitement.
"Then it is settled, onward to breakfast then...!"Luna suggested as she rolled out of bed and began to dress in her silver royal attire.
As the night princess dressed in her silver shoes, her black crescent moon necklace, and her small black crown. Aiden was lifted from the bed and placed in Celestia's right fore arm for safe keeping. Making sure he was nice and nestled in her embrace before Luna had finished dressing. As they all made their way out after picking up some clothes for Aiden. Their day as a family had begun once again, so much to look forward to within a castle, and hopefully out of the castle.
Alright every pony here is the sequel, well it's not sequel as in the same, horror, blood and scary stuff. Just more of a family friendly spin off of the sisters raising Aiden, and maybe if you all want, maybe in the future an adventure into the Equines past.
