Sowilo leapt out of his bed and instead of standing on his two hind legs, his body momentum forced him on all four. He blinked and looked over his back to see a pair of wings rustling against his flank. He gasped and looked for his mirror, one which he always hid behind a cloth for he hate the constant reminder that he wasn't like his two Mothers. He used his teeth as he sometimes spied Earth Pony gardener does to pull at something and the cloth fell from the mirror.
He stared at the Alicorn foal staring back him; his mane remained black and his eyes remained green but his flanks were white like Celestia and his white wings tipped with black feathers. He screamed…
Almost immediately Celestia and Luna burst into his room, horns at the ready to attack and defend but saw nothing but an Alicorn foal. Celestia gasped, "Sowilo?!"
Luna frowned, wary, "Are you really our foal?"
Sowilo started crying and the two Alicorn sisters started to fuss over him. Celestia quickly sent for Twilight, Cadence, Shining Armour and the Mane Six to come for an emergency meeting at the Palace. She even sent for Discord to come. Soon, they were all gathered in Sowilo's room, each taking turn to scan the boy now Alicorn foal. Discord hummed as he dangle Sowilo upside down and shook the foal and twirl his round and round before he set the swirly eyed foal down, sighing, "I knew it,"
Twilight and Cadence looked at him, simultaneously asking, "What did you find?!" It was understandable for their haste since all four of the Alicorn Princesses, Twilight having recently become an Alicorn, has scanned Sowilo but none of them found anything. Twilight added, "And you better not be pulling our tails!"
Discord shrugged, "I told Sowilo that first day we met that he has magic in him,"
Sowilo shook his head, "I thought you were joking,"
Discord hummed, "I understand why you would think that,"
Celestia budge in, "Discord, you said that Sowilo has magic but I have never sense any such thing in him!"
Discord shrugged again, drinking from a coconut shell, "Well, it's because all these years he's here, his magic is confused because our magic are nothing like his!" He grinned, "He must have been feeling closed in and frustrated enough to try and imitate our magical signature,"
Luna frowned, "Sowilo?"
Sowilo looked at his hooves sheepishly, "I wanted to be really one of you guys but…I'm too different. I mean even Twilight and the others screamed when they first saw me,"
Cadence cooed, "Oh you poor foal!" She gathered him against her barrel and nuzzled his eternally messy black mane. Shining Armour tussled his mane, "Kid, none of us felt that you are not one of us," He then smiled wryly, "I already felt you like a family,"
Twilight nodded, "I'm sorry we screamed Sowilo," Her friends nodded behind her, "It's not that we are afraid, we were surprised to see you,"
Applejack added, "Well mostly surprised,"
Sowilo sniffled, "I'm really am scary looking, aren't I?"
Luna gasped and snatched him from the nuzzling Cadence, taking the foal craving Alicorn mare by surprised by Sowilo's sudden disappearance, "No, cupcake! I did not mean to make you feel that way!" Luna sighed and licked away his tears, "I just don't want you to get hurt like I do for being so different. I'm sorry that I make you hate how you look,"
Rarity nodded, "Darling, you are such a sweet thing when we first met. Sure I find you rather…strange…to look at before but as time went by I get used to you and I even find you the sweetest foal I have ever had the chance to meet!" She glared at Rainbow Dash and Applejack to say otherwise, "Right girls?"
Rainbow Dash ignored her well-meaning glare, "Yeah kid! I always wanted to take you flying and now you got your own wings! You'll be awesome as I am if not more, which is impossible, in no time!" She grinned, "I'll make you do the Rainboom before you know it!"
Fluttershy huffed, "Rainbow Dash!"
Rainbow Dash looked at her, "What?!"
She sighed and poked a Sowilo recently gained wings, "He needs to get use to these first, then make his muscle stronger before he can even attempt one of your 'basic' moves," She pointed her hooves toward Rainbow Dash current 'student', "I mean look what you did to Twilight during her flying lessons,"
Twilight nodded, "Yeah…" She glared at nothing and her wings popped open, much to her annoyance.
Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes, "Pfft, whatever! He'll be like me when it comes to flying, I'll make sure of that!" She grinned at Sowilo, "Right, junior?!"
Discord yawned, "But this form might be temporary," He added, "Not that I want to burst your bubble,"
Rainbow Dash groaned, "What?!" She turned to Twilight and shook her, "Please make it permanent!" She turn to Celestia and Luna and Applejack grabbed on the crazy Pegasus before she jump over proper etiquette and threw them over the mountains, "Please make it permanent! I need a new flying buddy!"
A balloon popped right beside her blue head and Pinkie Pie grinned, "He can always fly using balloons!"
"NO! MAKE IT PERMANENT!"
Celestia quickly take charge before things get out of hooves her Traditional Royal Canterlot Voice, "PONIES!" They all looked at her and Rainbow Dash returned to her senses, blushing and giggling quietly, "Sorry,"
Celestia sighed, "Discord," She looked at the Draconequus and he looked at her over his sunbathing cloud, taking of his shades, "What?"
Celestia sighed, "Please spent some time with Sowilo until we can be sure what his magic is capable of,"
Discord blew raspberry at that, "Oh, he can do loads of things!"
Spike asked, "Like?"
He grinned at the diminutive dragon, "Like turning you into a toad," Although it sounded like an insult, quick minded Twilight caught on, "You mean Sowilo can do anything like anypony that's a Unicorn as long as we figured out how his magic work?"
Discord looked at her like she just bucked his puppy, "Way to burst my bubble, Twily. Whatever happened to tense expectation?" He sighed dramatically, causing Fluttershy to giggle.
Twilight huffed, "Currently out of commission," She turned to Princess Celestia, "Princess, please allow me to spend time with Sowilo and teach him what we know so that he may attempt them," She quickly added, "We will only be doing basics like levitation and opening doors, nothing too strenuous," She then smiled at Sowilo, floating him toward her and nuzzled him, "At the same time we will figure out if he can return to this form should he became whatever he was previously,"
