Chapter 3-Sam's New Life
Well, here's the next chapter. Sorry it's been so long and far between.
"Oh no Sam! What did I do? I thought I had the jist of the spell down." Twilight looked at her spell book. "I read it wrong. I was practicing a de-aging spell. Not an aging spell. Fluttershy! I have to get Sam to Fluttershy," Twilight said panicking. All Sam did was bark happily at the mention of Fluttershy's name. For you see, Sam's basic memory had been retained, but he couldn't control his emotions among other things like motor movements (hand-eye coordination, like moving a spoon to his mouth). The walk or run to Fluttershy's house was pretty uneventful. Sam followed Twilight obediently and didn't run off at all.
"What happened," Fluttershy asked at seeing Sam as a little puppy.
"I thought I was doing an aging spell, it turned out it was a de-aging spell and Sam wanted the spell used on him and now he is well, you know, Twilight explained.
"I shouldn't have let him go. I should have made him stay here and told him to ignore the ponies that were mean to him," Fluttershy said in despair.
"It's not your fault. It was fully Sam's choice, Twilight replied trying to help Fluttershy feel better. At this point Sam had taken a corner of Fluttershy's rug and began pulling and chewing on it.
"I guess he's hungry," Fluttershy said.
"I can help if you need it," Twilight said.
"Oh, no. It's fine. I'm used to taking care of little baby animals," Fluttershy said. In a few minutes, Sam was sitting in a highchair and being fed mashed up fruits and veggies with little bits of meat by Fluttershy.
"Come on Sam. Open up wide, "Fluttershy said moving the spoon toward Sam's mouth. Sam opened up his mouth and ate the food. Usually Sam would be pretty humiliated but being a baby, he couldn't do much. Besides, he was pretty hungry. A little later Sam was on the floor playing with blocks.
"Well, now you're what the ponies always said you were," Fluttershy said as she watched her "son" play. Sam looked up gave a small little bark and went back to his toys. Sam's block tower he had been building suddenly toppled over. Sam looked at his beautiful destroyed creation. He just looked up at Fluttershy with tear-filled eyes and just started wailing.
"Waaaah. Waaaah," Sam cried. Fluttershy knew she would now have her work cut out for her.
