Chapter 3

Naming the Child

Neo and Luna's newborn child realized what kind of creature he was and he was now flying through the sky.

As he flew, magical beams kept shooting from his horn and he had no control over the magic. He kept grabbing his head, trying to stop the beams, but he couldn't make it stop.

Then the child flew over to the Everfree Forest and he landed somewhere in the forest and he appeared to be a few feet away from the Castle of the 2 Sisters.

The child walked over towards the castle, wanting to get far away from any living thing for fear that he might accidentally hurt somepony or something with his uncontrollable magic.

He walked to the castle and he sat on the ground against the castle wall.

He looked down and said, "What am I. Why was I born this way?"

He finally got his magic to stop, but he still didn't know how to control it if it happened again. He looked down in shame and he saw himself as a mutated freak.

He called himself a monster, and then he heard a female voice say, "Don't say that sweetie."

He looked and he saw Princess Luna standing a few feet away from him. Behind her was Neo, Princess Celestia, the mane 6, Spike and Starlight Glimmer.

Princess Luna approached the child and said, "Don't ever say that about yourself my son. You are not a monster, and you are not a freak. You are a very special boy."

The child looked down, thinking whether or not she was right about him.

Then a shadow loomed over him, he looked and saw Princess Celestia approaching him.

Celestia smiled at him and said, "She speaks the truth little one. She loves you very much and I love you as well. You are a special boy with a unique gift. You have the power of an alicorn, just like your mother. And if you let us help you, we will help you learn to control your magical powers. So, little one, will you accept our help?"

The child looked at Celestia for a second, then he said yes.

Then Celestia and Luna's horns glowed and a magical light came out of their horns and the light engulfed the child.

As the light engulfed the child, the light disappeared. Then Luna said it was done. His magical abilities were now under control and he just had to learn how to control it.

Celestia and Luna had cast a spell on him that would keep his magic from suddenly unleashing and it was the same spell that Sunburst used on Flurry Heart to keep her magic under control. The child agreed to learn under the teaching of Princess Celestia about how to control his magic and also about friendship.

Then the mane 6, Spike and Starlight approached the child. They welcomed him to Equestria and they said they look forward to many happy times with him and they will be his friends. The child accepted their friendship and the ponies and Spike hugged him. Neo, Luna and Celestia smiled at the sweet moment. Then Neo approached the child, he said he was his father and he was proud to have him as a son.

The child hugged Neo and Twilight mentioned that they hadn't named him yet.

Luna thought about it and she said, "What do you think Neo?"

Neo looked at the child and said, "There's only one name that is perfect for him. We shall call him... Archangel."

Luna and Celestia looked at each other and smiled, they seemed to like the name and they approved.

Then Neo's friends introduced themselves to Archangel and were looking forward to a wonderful friendship with him. They assured Archangel that he will make lots of friends.

Archangel now had confidence in himself and he was looking forward to a bright future in Equestria.

The End.
