Alrighty! This clearly proves that I'm not dead.

Yet.

Anyway, yeah, sorry for being lazy everypony, I actually got really side tracked and kinda ran out of inspiration… Or, more likely, I ran out of OC's. Nobody gave me one when I asked for one and even though I know you don't have to its kinda hard to come up with my own. So, I finally started writing again since I'm out of my slump and I now have OC's from people to use. Several of them you may actually know! :D I'll list more in the end but now I think I'll just say thanks to those who reviewed and then you guys can read the pre-view. Why this is a pre-view and not a full chapter you ask? Well, I felt kinda down since it's been so long since I updated so I decided to whip this up so that way you know I'm not dead! :)

Also, I wrote this in two days so that way you wouldn't have to wait much longer, pretty good accomplishment if I do say so myself…

To the four people who ACTUALLY REVIEWED!

BlasianAsian: Waited so long to say this but finally! No, they are not Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, your actually way off but good guess though. Thanks for reviewing so far and I hope you keep reading! Furthermore, I'm surprised nobody figured out who the mysterious ponies were yet, I think I need to work on that but I actually was hoping people wouldn't figure it out, adds to the surprise.

JLWafflezBrony: I'm glad you like this a lot as well as my other story too! :D I notice that you make reviews there as well. Anyway, after what you said I think I will post this on FIMFiction, but only the revised edition. I recently mad a FIM account and the reason why I was so held up actually was because I couldn't stop reading other people stories. Once I fixed errors I will start posting there, it's just that it seems so much harder to since the format looks like it changes drastically than it does on FanFiction.

Domadude: Thank you for reviewing! :D Your actuall one of the only people, who gave me an OC so I will definitely plan on using it, again, thanks in advance! :)

Flamesinger599: We've been actually having some cool chats lately so if you have a FIMfiction account friend me or whatever. Still new to it but I'm not exactly sure if you can but anyway thanks for looking at my story, glad you like the other "Little" project I was working on too.

And now, finally the reading!

P.S. Since this is a pre-view I'll add a bonus pre-view to something else I've been working on. Not sure if I'll finish it though… I probably will though or flamesinger will kill me. And yes, it would be the "little" project that I was working on because I was bored.

Chapter 4: Pre-View!

Dreaming.

That was what I was doing right now.

Or, at least, I think it was a dream.

Anyway, I was somewhere warm and there was softness all around me. Darkness overtook my entire field of vision except for a small shaft of light breaking through.

"Huh, strange, didn't think dreams could be this… lifelike…" I thought, trying to look around to get a better view of my surroundings.

I tried to turn my head but panic when I couldn't move it, like I was bound to something. I immediately tried to move my arms and legs but they were restricted as well. I tried to make a cry for help when my voice seemed to fail me, causing me to flail harder in my indestructibly soft prison.

"Shhhhhshshshshshhhhhhh, it's alright little one, it's alright. I'm here now." A soothing yet somewhat familiar voice called out.

"W-why does that sound familiar?"

Slowing down my struggles I tried to push the darkness away from me when suddenly the little shaft of light grew bigger. In an instant the darkness was gone, replaced by a warm light. I tried to get a look at my surroundings, my blurry vision slowly coming into focus. I seemed to be bundled in a black yet familiar cloak that was much bigger than it was before. My surroundings consisted of… was that a fire place? And… a cushion as well as other several book cases? My vision was still fuzzy and that was all I could see so far. The room was really actually pretty cozy, soft shadows danced along the walls from the fire place while the smell of freshly burning pine drifted to my muzzle. I took a deep breath and calmed myself down when I realized there was a figure standing over me.

The room was now perfectly clear in my vision but due to the fact that the pony… I think it's a pony? Anyway, the pony stood between me and the fireplace, cascading them in shadow so I couldn't see their features. As I tried to adjust myself to get a better look at them I heard sniffling, somebody on the verge of tears. I looked around confused, when suddenly the pony in front of started shaking. I then realized it was them on the verge of tears. Suddenly having the urge to make them stop crying I decided to say some comforting words.

"Coo."

What the fuck, brain.

What.

The.

Fuck.

For some odd reason I was cursed with…

BABY VOICE!

A/N: Please copy and paste the URL: watch?v=5wRDMPXD0v0

You'll understand once you see.

"Why the hell do I keep getting younger?" I grumbled in thought but I kept trying to act calm.

With my arms no longer restricted I reached out a tiny hoof in a comforting gesture for the disheveled pony, by now I figured out that it was a mare. Not exactly sure how old but she was definitely starting to calm down.

"Hey, it's alright, no need to be sad, right?" I tried to say.

"Coo! Coo!"

"FUCK!"

"Sniff! I-I'll miss you little one." She said as she made her way towards me.

By now, though, I finally realized the darkness around her was actually following her, hiding her. I tried to look past it but I couldn't see any of her features, even when she lifted me up and brought me to her chest. She was still crying but she slowly rubbed the back of my cloak.

"Damn, she's soft!" I thought as I gripped her tightly; burying my face into her soft, silk like, warm fur.

She started sniffling a little again, but retained what composure she had otherwise. She brought me up and blew a raspberry in my tummy, causing me to squeal with excitement and try to force her back.

A/N: I always wondered what that thing was called when people blew at baby's tummies or whatever. I do know for a fact that it literally makes them burst out laughing and I always wanted to say raspberry, so I used it!

"Welp, already so far behind in age already so I behind might as well throw all manliness out the window." I thought, trying to get over my fit of the giggles.

"I know that I now have to say goodbye but-" She paused, taking in a deep breath to calm herself down. "In order to… protect you from her, I need to send you away to where it's safe, where even she will never be able to harm you." She moved her head towards mine and kissed me on the forehead.

For some reason I felt the need to yawn as I began to feel sleepy. The mare noticed this and chuckled slightly.

"No matter where you are, I will always love you _, remember that." For some reason her voice died out in the middle where a name should have been.

She started sniffling again; this time though a glow seemed to appear from her head and I had the sudden feeling of being weightless.

"Wait! What did you just say?!" I called out.

"Coo! Coo!" Was my actual response, my forelegs at her, trying to reach out and grab her, but to no avail.

"I'll see you someday, when the nightmare is no longer a threat." She responded, tears were streaming down her eyes by the sound of it.

"Be brave, my son!" She announced at last as I felt a strange tingling all over my body and I started to feel light headed.

"What the hell lady I'm not your son!" I shouted back.

"COO!" Huh, came out more like a wail that time…

And then, suddenly, just like that, she was gone. I was now alone, no light was anywhere near me so I couldn't see my surroundings but I knew for a fact that I was in my stony egg shell thing again since I could feel the cold, hard, stone under my hooves.

And then clowns suddenly came out of nowhere.

I.I.I

"AAAUUUGHHHHEHJIOFUHUIDEHFUIE GPPHHGGHDLAEFJIEJF! Oh, it was just a dream…"

Alright, hope you all liked it so far! :D Anyway, I will now list ALL the people I was able to borrow OC's from (Not sure on some of the OC's names so I'm kinda making the names up):

And I think that it. Quite a few famous people, huh? :D Anyway, the reason I haven't been writing is because I kinda got bored and I love reading other peoples stories! If you guys like some of the stories I wrote so far then check out my youtube channel. That's right; it's been so long I actually made a youtube channel. I hardly have any views but I post any and all ideas I have up on it. The latest being the little project I was working on, so you'll wanna check that out, flame. Furthermore, I will do a video on this story but only once I've uploaded the next chapter. So, without further ado, the project I was working on!

Or at least the pre-view for it…

Chapter 1:

In the slums of an old town a young woman ran in the rain, looking for shelter, in the middle of the moonless night. The darkness hid most of her features but you could tell that she was athletic due to the fact that she was running faster than any normal human being. In her arms could be heard the faint cries of a baby and she brought it closer to her chest to calm it down.

"Shshshsh… It's alright, were almost there." She tried to say in a soothing voice, hoping to calm the child down, but her breath was ragged and labored.

She looked up and saw a church. It was large and had a tall steeple that towered over the surrounding buildings. Like other nearby buildings it was still old and cracked but radiated the feeling of safety. Above the double doorway above was an old lamp that revealed a lone nun, sweeping the porch despite the rain. She was old and her hands were knobby with age but behind the cracked glasses she wore her eyes reflected many years wisdom. She immediately began to make her way towards the church.

(Yeah, I heard people don't like pov changes, so shoot me.)

I.I.I

Myrtle, a 73 year old nun, was out sweeping despite the heavy rain. She has always swept the steps of the church despite the weather for over 60 years now in case any of the people required help from the church or wanted to meditate in prayer. But despite all those years she would never have expected what was about to happen tonight.

As she was sweeping the steps, humming a nursery rhyme that she loved as a child, a figure quickly made its way up the steps.

"Hello there my dear, how may I help you-" She cut herself off and dropped her broom at the spectacle before her.

Before Myrtle stood a soaked and muddied woman that appeared to be in her late twenties. She had on clothes that would have immediately made identified as one of the many explorers that would visit the town for supplies while on their way to the nearby forest. Her hair seemed to be many shades of grey and her eyes a vivid violet. Strapped along her waist was a golden compass that appeared to have belonged there. What shocked Myrtle the most about this new visitor wasn't the fact that she was covered in scrapes and bruises or the fact that there seemed to be a whimpering baby in her arms. No, the fact that shocked her was that the young woman had wings the color of a golden brown, the one on the right seemed to be bandaged and folded back.

"By the lord, it's an angel!" She immediately thought as the angel ran up to her, panting as if she ran for a long while, a look of strain was plastered on her face.

"Thy lord has sent me a sign! An angel walks up these steps of his domain and here I am to witness it!" Myrtle said, bowing slightly as a sign of respect.

The angels face went to that of confusion but she soon realized what the nun was talking about and smiled warmly, stifling a chuckle.

"An angel, huh, never been called that before." The so-called angel replied before the baby in her arms squirmed a bit reminding her why she was there.

"Oh and who is this?" Myrtle said, looking at the baby with a caring look.

"Another one of gods winged guardians?"

The angel scowled. "I'm sorry to disappoint you but I'm no angel, lady." She replied curtly but her gaze softened quickly when she glanced down at the bundle in her arms.

"And neither is this little guy."

"We're just a couple of pon- err people that are just trying to find someplace safe." She said again, looking back up with pleading eyes.

Myrtle nodded sympathetically. "If it is safety and shelter that you seek then come in, child, you will find inside." She side stepped to reveal the slightly open doorway and the so-called non-angel's face relaxed.

"Thank you so-" She stopped short when there was a loud, blood chilling scream sounded from nearby.

She immediately ran up to the nun, handing her the baby and slowly backed away, leaving the nun confused. The baby cried out, trying to reach for the one that previously carried him while the nun looked up in confusion.

"Could you please…" She paused for a minute; apparently these next words were hard for her to say. "Could you please take care of him, if, you know, I don't come back?"

The nun stared at her in shock but reluctantly nodded. As the angel was about to turn she spoke up.

"Wait!" She said, holding out a knobby hand.

The angel turned around, wondering what it was the nun wanted. "I know I don't have any money but-"

"That's not it, my dear." Myrtle replied, shaking her head. "I wanted to know your name, before you left."

"My names Dari-" She paused, thinking. "Darra." She replied with a nervous smile. "My name is Darra."

The nun nodded. "I will make sure to remember the name in case you ever come back, Darra."

"Darra" nodded. "Thank you so much, you don't know how much that means to me." She then proceeded to leap of the steps in one elegant go and sprinted off in the direction of the scream that was heard earlier.

The nun then proceeded to go inside, cradling the baby. "Well then, little one, let's say we get you something to eat while we wait for your mother."

The baby responded with a small yawn and he proceeded to make himself comfortable in the nun's arms. She smiled and proceeded deeper into the church.

"God, please my prayers tonight and grant safety for the winged one and her child." She whispered, looking up at the giant statue that was in the center of the courtyard.

Though almost as if on cue; there was another blood curling scream, this one though sounded very familiar. Myrtle froze in place as the child in her arms began to struggle in her arms and began crying.

"By the lord…" She whispered.

She then began hurrying to her room in order to safely care for the crying child.

"Does the child even have a name?" She thought as she glanced at him, still whimpering.

She had forgotten to ask and there wasn't a name plate or tag on him. She was afraid that she would never be seeing the mysterious women ever again so she would have to think of a name.

"What is your name child?" She asked aloud to no one in particular and stopped in the middle of the hall that was close to her living quarters.

After holding him out and looking him up and down for about a minute she began to become transfixed in his eyes. Then, it suddenly hit her. The fact that this child's mother was an angel meant that he was meant for great things, all great people and heroes were that were in the church's scriptures. And she could not forget the fact that the angel was dressed as an explorer.

"I shall name after one of the world's greatest explorers of all time, for it is in your blood that you are destined for greatness." She continued on and entered her room, closing the door behind her.

"You will be taught in the way to read in the ancient language and shall grow up to be as proud and brave as your mother." She continued as she walked over to her bed where she placed the child down and covered the sheets over him.

She stood straight up, rubbing the child's back, ruffling the sheets, revealing that on his back were a couple of tattoo's that depicted angel wings. "From this day on, you shall be known as…" She paused for dramatic affect.

"Nathan."

Well, that's intense. Anyway, if you haven't figured it out this is a MLP/Uncharted crossover so since I haven't seen one yet I claim this to be the first on FanFiction! I claim first because I haven't seen a story for it yet in the crossover section. Anyway, the next chapter for Rebirth will be out a few days later, maybe a week since it's gonna be a big one. Anyway, hope you guys read, check out my youtube account and have a happy Halloween!

I just realized both sections contain babies, I wonder why? :/

Entire team, it consists of babies! – TF2 Heavy
