It had been along time since an abandoned egg of any kind had been brought to Canterlot, Spike's had showed up what may as well been ages ago. But now in front of Celestia was a large egg that was clearly of some magical creature, some of her guards had found it in a cave in the Canterlot mountain the day before. The problem now was that her magic couldn't hatch it nor could the magic of her sister or any other unicorn in her magic school. It was strange and worrisome, was it too early, or worse had it died before I could even be born. Maybe it couldn't be affected by magic. Full of frustration and irritation with the helpless egg she tried once more to make the blasted thing hatch. The egg sat there seemingly unaffected by the blast of magic.

"Why won't you hatch?! You ridiculous stubborn thing!" Celestia finally snapped glaring at the egg. It had been like trying to hatch a rock. It was a full week before the egg decided to crack open on its own.

Celestia had awoken her groggy sister like an excited filly by hopping into her bed and yelling almost at royal Canterlot levels directly into her ear.

The egg had even more cracks when they had come back and the top was beginning to fall off.

How exciting another cute baby drag-...pony?

Sure enough she and her groggy sister where staring at the head of what looked like a newborn pony. It was still curled up eyes closed. A sense of dread rushed over Celestia as she realized why the egg was so hard to hatch. The egg and its resident fell over and the rest of its body was dumped unceremoniously out of its egg and on to the bed. In place of its front hooves was a red dragon claw and a slender yellow bird talon. for its hind legs a white rabbit foot and a mint colored pony hoof. Its tail was a brown snakes and had the beginnings of a rattle on the end of it. Its wings were like a ravens that merged into a pudgy pale grey body. The little Draconequus opened its eyes to reveal they had little spirals that came outward from a dark yellow iris, and into pale yellow sclera. It tried to move and promptly slipped on its own mismatched limbs. It glared at its claws before trying a few more times. Eventually Celestia picked it up to get a look at it properly. After a quick check it was obvious it was a boy. He didn't seem to be bothered by Celestia floating him around the room and in fact seemed to enjoy it.

"What am I going to do?" Celestia whined watching as he flopped and squirmed on her bed trying to get on his stomach. He managed to make an awkward swimming motion that slid him across the silky sheets and was getting rather close to the edge.

"The only thing we can do..." Luna tiredly looking at the baby "Take care of him"

Luna stopped him from discovering gravity the hard way catching him on her muzzle. He twisted around to coo at her, and nuzzled into her face. Eventually he got to his true motive to chew on the younger sisters hair.

"What should we call him, aside from drooly" Luna sighed lowering him to the bed before turning her hair into mist to free it from his gummy slobbering mouth.

"Spiral?" Celestia said staring at his large eyes

"Oh how creative."

"Kaaaaa" the child blubbered

"Then you come up with something"

"Q?"

"What do you mean? Just Q, that's ridiculous!"

"KaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAH" he cried again

"How about adorwable" A maid who had walked in squealed. "He is such a cutie, yes he is." she nuzzled him making him giggle his little rattle tail making all sorts of noise.

"You mean you don't care that he's a draconequus?" Celestia asked

"He can't help what he is, besides He's Cuuuute!" She turned her attention back to the giggling baby."His eyes are so interesting..." she trailed for a moment.

What should we name him, I doubt he would appreciate being named adorable when hes a grown err... draconequus.

"Kaa." the maid said airily "Name him Kaa" She looked at the sisters with yellow swirled eyes. The child draconequus also looking at the two sister the swirls in his eyes now spinning his rattle tail shivering in a rhythm.

Luna rushed and covered him with a blanket making the maid snap out of her trance, fortunately he was still a baby otherwise that could have ended badly. He managed to get from under the blanket after a while and made a noise that sounded like his supposed name.

"KAAAA!" he screeched and giggled

"Anything else you need to tell us" Luna scowled

He scrunched up his face and strained.

"AHHH NOT THE SHEETS!" Celestia cried maneuvering him over a waste basket.

'This is going to be interesting twenty or thirty years' Luna thought following her sister with a small smile

A couple of reasons I typed this, I was going to do a Draconequus story anyway. I decided to put it out sooner because of Discord's return. The found egg concept seems like it would work since they most likely found spike in a similar manner. Draconequus seem closer to their dragons than horses judging by discord anyway so I think they come from eggs, plus it just seems like it would be funny to see a pony head to come from an egg just for the rest of it to be made of wtf. Celestia taking care of a potentially dangerous magical baby makes me lol. Kaa is named after the snake from the jungle book, an old favorite.

This seems short.
