Young Hokori was a challenge for even Celestia to handle. The young child was very rebellious and adventurous making for a hellish combination for the solar princess.
"Hokori! Stop it this instant!" She said in a firm voice as the child ripped yet another custom made outfit from his body. The toddler responded back with his own firm babbles before continuing to rip his clothing staring right at her defiantly.
Celestia picked the child up in her fore-hooves making the toddler screamed in frustration kicking her muzzle and biting her. "Hokori- Ow! Stop this!" She yelled growing equally frustrated.
Hokori snarled at the princess flicking his tail in disapproval and he whined. The guards watched chuckling at the child once again ripped off his diaper crawling around naked. But soon, Little Hokori tired himself out falling asleep in a curled up ball on the floor.
Celestia sighed laying on her back as the young boy slept "You make it so hard to stay made at you when you look this cute" She whispered gently sliding her wing underneath him and pulling him close.
The toddler woke up again sooner rather than later. He glanced at the sleeping alicorn before, he crawled to the window in awe at the half moon that stared back at him before crawling outside on the balcony. The toddler shivered as the cool night breeze hit his bare skin before crawling back inside.
He stared at the huge white alicorn whose fur looked cozy and warm before crawling over to her. He gripped her white fur snuggling into it before drifting off into yet another peaceful slumber.
The next day was similar as the last. Celestia wrapped him in a soft blanket receiving many bites in protest. She groaned as she stumbled out of her chambers with the restless bundle "Today is a good day for a walk. Maybe this will calm you down" She said to no one in particular.
Hokori cooed at he wiggled within the blankets looking at the flying phoenix above them. Celestia smiled as she flew down onto her head "Hello there, young lady" She greeted her watching as the baby reached for her, eyes wide shining with curiosity.
"Can you say, Philomena, little one" Celestia cooed to the child. The baby stared at her as she repeated the name attempting to move his lips similar to hers. "Philomena..." Celestia cooed against.
"Looo...Me...AH!" Hokori cooed back making the solar princess giggle kissing him on the forehead. Philomena took to the skies once more not wanting to ruin the adorable moment between mother and son.
"Loooo...Me..." The baby trailed off waiting for the alicorn to repeat it. "Philomena, little one" She said finally. He whined softly shaking his head trying to form the words "ffff...Loooo...Me...AH!" He said slowly.
Celestia gave him a big smile "Good job!" She exclaimed happily kissing his chubby little cheeks. "Let's go play!" She exclaimed putting the baby on the ground as she runs a short distance away.
Hokori gurgled slowly crawling towards the alicorn. Celestia smiled nuzzling the child, rewarding him for his small journey before running a short distance to his left. Hokori let out a loud squeal crawling quickly over to the alicorn. Celestia giggled as his tiny hands gripped her forelegs before a guard made his way over to her.
They talked about adult stuff while the baby happily crawled around before finding a cold brown puddle of liquid. Hokori stuck his hand in and out of the liquid watching curiously as it became darker.
Celestia nodded towards the guard "Thank you for telling me, I will talk to Twilight Sparkle tomorrow." She said finishing the conversation. The guard nodded walking back to his post not before giving the princess a low bow.
Celestia sighed looking down at her hoof to see the baby was missing. "Hokori!" She cried out looking around the garden. The boy screamed happily splashing around in the mud until a white alicorn picked him up "I think we're long overdue for a bath" She said with a smile as she walked away with the child in her magic.
Celestia turned on the shower knob rinsing the caked mud from his skin. She watched as the pale skin peeked through as the dirt eroded off his body.
Celestia hummed a little song placing the child into the shallow waters of her bath. The baby cooed happily as she washed his hair and tail throughly. The baby reached for her flowing mane proudly exclaiming as he grabbed it and yanked it.
Celestia let out a loud squeal as she was nearly pulled over by the strength of the toddler. "Hokori..." She said in a low warning tone. She was fully aware of the child's extraordinary strength and his ability to pull ponies over as described by his last foalsitter.
The baby teared up as he reluctantly let go of the rainbow mane allowing it to flow once more. Celestia shook her head "What am I going to do with you" She cooed rocking the baby in her fore-hooves.
The child answered with a small yawn curling in on himself. Celestia fought back a yawn of her own as she rinsed his hair grabbing a towel with her magic. She wrapped the towel around him carrying him into her chambers.
Celestia dried him and put on a new clean outfit "I just hope that this one will last at least until tomorrow night" She sighed watching the baby's soft shallow breathes as he fell asleep.
