Let it be known that I am fully aware of continuity changes based on what happened in season 5, but this fanfiction is mostly OC driven and so based around ideas that I think COULD have happened after season 4 ended. This means that anything that was in the fifth season, is irrelevant to this story and it's characters. With this said, please enjoy.

Starlight smiled when the train came to a stop, "Ponyville! Final stop of the day!"

She and Lucy helped Fluttershy get their bags as they stepped off the train and smiled. They were all three glad to be home. They made their way from the train station to the Castle of Chaos, as Discord sometimes called it, so that Lucy and Fluttershy could unpack and help Starlight get her crystals weaved into her mane. She hadn't been cutting her mane as often as she used to, so her hair was getting rather long. She didn't mind this though, since she was still herself even if her mane was longer now. The three of them talked a bit, though mainly about unpacking and what they'd be doing later before they arrived at the chaotic castle.

Discord was waiting for them, practically lifting the entire castle off the ground with his magic he was that happy.

"I guess Daddy got lonely?" Lucy laughed as Discord coiled around his wife in a snake like manner.

The two friends laughed to themselves as Fluttershy couldn't help but giggle happily at her husbands excitement, "ok Ok! I missed you too Discord."

He laughed, a puff of smoke changing him to a great dane with his wings and horns, "Oh, Dear Fluttershy am I a puppy dog now?"

Lucy balanced on one hoof on one of her father's horns, giggling with glee, "Daddy looks funnier than normal!"

The Draconaquis laughed happily, knowing his daughter would never mean that mean, since he himself had to admit that he looked pretty ridiculous with all his miss matched parts. They continued their family greeting while Starlight got a drink real quick. She had her sisters gift wrapped, she knew she would love it! After a few hours Starlight made her way to go pick up her sister so they could get back to the castle. Spike would be back by lunch so they had time for themselves.

Rainbow Dash was sitting out on their sort of porch area with Flitter Fleet and Cloud Runner, upon seeing the approaching young mare Rainbow waved to her with a grin, "Hey Star! Solina will be out in a sec!"

Starlight grinned happily as she hugged her aunt once she landed, thankfully not skidding this time, and she said, "Hey Aunt Rainbow, it's great to be back! I got something for the baby." She reached into her saddle bag and handed her aunt a package with a rainbow bow on top.

The rainbow maned Pegasus smiled as she opened the gift happily, excited to see what the young mare would surprise her with. Inside was a quilt made from crystal silk, a rare silk made from the petals of the rare sapphire crystal rose. The design of the most beautiful blue sky with a rainbow.

"Star, this is so thoughtful! This must have cost you a hoof and a wing!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed with both gratitude and awe.

"Oh no, I actually made it! see, we found a random field of them just outside Baltimare! I had Aunt Fluttershy help me figure out how to use the loom, she's scarily good at it for a pony without magic!" Starlight chuckled as she grinned.

"Yeah, I know right? You should have seen when she helped your mom and me, and applejack and pinkie when we tried to cheer up your aunt rarity by finishing her gala dress!" Rainbow Dash grinned with a laugh.

"Ahem!" Flitter Fleet coughed, "Sorry, tickle in my throat, but it got your attention right? Haha! Sorry, anyway, Dash when are you going to introduce us?"

Rainbow Dash laughed slightly and she rolled her eyes, "Star, this is my sister-in-law and my two nieces. Flitter Fleet, Cloud Runner, and FlutterMint. They're staying here until their place is built."

Flitter smiled as she said, "Nice to meet you, Princess."

"Oh, call me Starlight. I don't go by my title when I'm not in Canterlot or on a trip where I'll be preforming my duties." Starlight replied with a smile as she shook her hoof happily.

They chatted a while before Solina hurried out and hugged her older sister happily, "You're home! Let's go back to the castle! Pleeeeeeeease?!"

Starlight laughed happily as she ruffled her sister's mane and waved to her aunt and her family, flying off with her little sister back to the castle of Friendship. They mainly joked on the way home to get each other laughing, though to Solina it was really about making sure that her sister didn't go see Elusive too quickly. She had them stop and get lunch at the hay burger stand that they loved, they put gravy and sweet grass fries on their burgers and while very unhealthy, the two sisters never could resist them. After that she stalled her sister once more by having the two of them go by the party store to check on Scootaloo with Sunrise and Raspberry. What the two found was the orange pegasus covered in flour and eggs with the two giggling foals clapping their hooves.

"I swear they're not normally this bad..." Scootaloo coughed as she looked at them.

Starlight blinked and glanced at her sister, who had a similar reaction before starlight shook her head and she cleared her throat before speaking softly, "Um...Aunt Scoots...? I know it's not my place...um...but...where did the eggs and flour come from...you're in a party supply store..."

Solina nodded in agreement as she simply stood there in silence, taking in everything around them and trying her hardest not to laugh at the near prank-like nature/implications that the gooey orange mare gave off. Starlight chuckled slightly as she used her magic to clean her aunt up and she smiled softly at the two foals, who immediately began wanting to be picked up and to be rocked to sleep.

"Thanks, Star. I have no clue what would have happened if you two didn't show up." Scootaloo praised as the two sisters worked to get the twins to sleep.

"No problem, aunt Scoots. Me and Solina have been working on getting better at caring for foals so that we can help when Aunt Rarity and Aunt Rainbow have their foals." Starlight explained with a smile as they got the foals to sleep before setting them in their cribs gently.

The three of them shared a quiet understanding laugh before the two sisters went on their way and headed to the castle, grinning when they saw Spike returning. He was still considered a "baby" dragon, but he was mature enough in pony years and size to be considered an adult. He greeted his nieces happily with a wave, causing them to trot up faster than Solina would have liked. They hugged the dragon happily and asked him about his trip with bright smiles.

It was not long until Starlight smiled and she said, "Well, I need to get going. I need to go and see Elusive! I can't wait until he sees me back! He'll be so surprised!"

She waved goodbye to her Uncle and sister as she hurried off quickly towards the Boutique, she had promised to give Solina her surprise as soon as their mothers got back. Solina didn't mind this of course, but she couldn't help but shake her head as she and Spike went inside. She went straight to her room, which she had turned into a sort of HQ for her own personal goings on. She had everything from dart boards to maps of Ponyville and even charts of different patterns of the sun she had caught notice of. She sat down on her bed and began writing in her diary.

"Dear Diary,

This week has been really great, my sister and mothers are even home early. Well sort of at least, one out of two can't be bad, right? Anyway, we learned quite a bit more about this Raidiant Shine pony and it sounds like we will be getting a plan together better than we had hoped. Only, it may take a month or so to get thought up entirely and then put into action.

I guess that's just how it goes, huh? Uncle Discord was fun to visit, he get's pretty silly when Aunt Flutters is away. Thank goodness it only happens every so often! I heard from Star that he once even played basket ball with canned veggies, and lost!

Well, I guess that's it for now, bye!"

She closed the diary and put it back where it belonged and sighed as she sat back in bed, looking up at the ceiling, "I hope Starlight is doing ok..."

Let it be known, Candy is NOT gone! As a dog she has mainly no dialog and so she is mentioned much less, much like how Tank or Owlowiscious in the show. She'll be around, no need to worry! With this said, back to the chapter.

Starlight smiled as she hurried to the Boutique happily, walking in with a bright grin. Rarity was the first to greet her with a hug and a yank of her foreleg to get her into the dressing room, shoving her in where her dress was waiting for her to try on.

"Oh Starlight, Darling, your mane looks so lovely! But you must try on the gown I made for you! For Lucy's party, next month! I know it's early and adjustments CAN be made of course, but I do think you will adore the design I made for you!" Rarity beamed as she waited for the 15 year old to get changed into the dress.

When Starlight stepped out she smiled brightly as she looked at herself, the dress itself was of course crazy, but nothing too overboard for Starlight. It was merely meant to be crazy enough to match the theme of the other outfits she made for everypony else. The base was a long mint green skirt with light pink and orange stripes, vertical of course for elegance, the bodice was form fitting but not too snug, with a light pink base color and Purple gems dotting the fabric, the sleeves long and flowing, looking sash-like almost with a mint green base and orange ribbons. It matched her perfectly, while still being perfectly matching with the theme of chaos!

"Oh Aunt Rarity! It's beautiful!" She beamed as she hugged her aunt before moving to go change out of it so it wouldn't ruin.

"Oh, Darling, it looks perfect on you! I'll have to find light green, light pink and orange jewels and I'll weave them into your mane like those now!" Rarity beamed happily as she thought about helping Starlight prepare, she suddenly became serious and called up the stairs loudly, "Fancy! Remind me to go Gem hunting with you tomorrow!"

Starlight chuckled to herself slightly, her aunt's mood swings sure could come out of nowhere. At least she was never physically violent, just intimidatingly violent. She'd never hurt somepony-unless they were hurting her friends or family-but she sure could make you feel scared and small if she didn't get her way when they hit! She changed out of the dress happily, hearing a meek, "Yes, my darling." From upstairs she could only guess was Fancy Pants answering his wife. It was not long before Elusive came downstairs and smiled as he greeted his marefriend with a hug and kiss on the cheek.

"My darling, you look just as lovely as ever. Your mane looks so nice." He cooed as he hugged her softly.

Starlight giggled happily, blushing slightly, "Oh Elusive, I missed you so much!"

While they were catching up Rarity moved upstairs and started picking up some clutter around the house part of the boutique. She got some laundry picked up and blinked slightly when she noticed a note that Elusive had left himself in one of his pockets of his jacket. It didn't say much except for, "have to change, shorter mane, more eye make up."

Rarity hadn't the faintest clue what this could possibly mean, but she knew that her son may very well be becoming a perfectionist with mares. She could only hope her hunch was wrong, however. She did not think her son would really be that cruel. After all, Starlight was a very sweet young mare. Still, she would keep an ear out, just in case.
