Hey guys it's me Sunblast X and welcome to chapter 4 of: Luna's foal. In the last chapter we saw Pip bonding with his new mother, Princess Luna, he called her mom, and to top it all off, Blueblood was hurt by Luna, isn't that just awesome? (Rhetorical question) Now that that's done with, let's move on to chapter 4: School days. Also I reveal an original character in this chapter, created by my good friend Porcupain.

It was morning in Canterlot, and Pip was asleep in his bed. It had been a week or so since his adoption by Princess Luna. Pip's door then slowly opened. It was his mother, Princess Luna. She slowly walked up to her son's bedside and looked at him. She thought he looked cute when he was asleep. Then again Pip was cute no matter what he did (Yes, I'm a guy and I just used the word "cute", don't judge me!).

"Wakey wakey Pip, it's time to get up" She said in a quiet tone, nudging him lightly with her hoof to wake him up. Pip groaned as he woke up and stretched his forearms with a yawn.

"…Mom? What time is it?" Pip asked in a groggily tone, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"It's time for you to get up. Today's your first day at your new school" Luna said, still in a quiet tone, knowing Pip was still half asleep.

"You enrolled me in a new school?" he asked

"Sure did" she replied.

"That's nice of you" Pip thanked her.

"Your welcome, Sweetheart" Luna said. "Now get ready. You have a big day ahead of you" she said, removing the sheets off of him. She then left the room so he could get ready.

-At the breakfast table-

Princess Luna, Celestia, and Prince Blueblood were all sitting at the breakfast table eating and waiting for Pip. Just then, as if on cue, Pip had came into the dining room.

"Morning Mom, morning Aunt Celestia" Pip greeted his mother and aunt.

"Good morning, Pipsqueak" Luna and Celestia greeted their young family member simultaneously as he took a seat next to his mother.

"So Pip, are you ready for your first day of school?" Celestia asked her younger nephew.

"Sure am" Pip replied. He then looked at his mom. "It's not one of those snooty, snobby, fancy, stuck-up Canterlot schools is it?" Pip asked her.

"No, of course not" Luna said to her son. "I would never put you in one of those schools" Luna said.

"Thank goodness! I don't think I can handle being at one of those schools" he said. He then dug into his cereal, which was a bowl of chocolate horseshoes.

"Although, I can't promise that there won't be those types of ponies there" Luna said which caused Pip to choke on his cereal. Luna lightly patted his back to release the cereal that was in her throat. Celestia then spoke up.

"Don't worry, Pip. I'm sure most of them won't be like that" Celestia said, comforting her nephew.

"Although I would suggest you go to one of those fancy schools anyway to help you improve your atrocious and unruly behavior. Honestly, you eat like a pig" Blueblood said. "Ow!" he proclaimed in pain, having been shot in the chest once again by a blast of Luna's magic.

"Really Blueblood, you should really watch were you're sitting when I'm doing target practice" Luna said in normal speaking voice after shooting Blueblood in the chest once again for insulting her son. This caused Pip to laugh. She then blew the smoke of her horn. "So? Ready to go Pip?" she asked.

"Sure am" Pip said. He then jumped off of his seat, having his mom strap his saddlebag onto his back. His saddlebag was black with red trims. "Oh! One more thing" Pip said, and then motioned his mom to come closer, which she did. "Could you blast Blueblood one more time?" he asked her. She nodded. And just as Blueblood was about to sit back in his seat, he was hit with another blast of magic from Luna's horn. Blueblood let out a scream of pain, signaling he was hurt. This made Pip and Luna laugh, enjoying the thrill of Blueblood's pain. "Ok. Let's go" he said then the two of them head of to Pip's new school. Blueblood was twitching as he was covered in smoke.

-Pip's New School-

Pip and Luna had arrived at Pip's new school. The name of the school was: Equestria Elementry. Luna looked down at Pip.

"Ready?" Luna asked Pip. Pip responded by looking down and away. Luna noticed her colt was nervous and knelt down to his height. "Hey, I know this isn't easy for you. But trust me; this'll get easier by the end of the day. I promise" Luna said, placing a hoof on his chin. Pip looked up at his mother and smiled. "And promise me you'll make at least one friend by the end of today, ok?" she asked him. He nodded. "Good. I've packed your lunch into you saddlebag. You'll have celery sticks with peanut butter on them, applesauce, and grape juice" she said, listing off his lunch items.

"Thanks mom" Pip said, nuzzling her chest, which caused Luna to nuzzle him back.

"Come on, let's go meet your teacher" she said. They then walked side by side to meet Pip's new teacher. When they entered the classroom they saw Pip's teacher, and the class was already filled with foals who happened to be Pip's new classmates. "Hello, you must be Pip's new teacher" Luna said, greeting her son's teacher.

"Yes, hello I'm Mr. James; you must be Princess Luna" The teacher known as Mr. James said, introducing himself. (This is the character that was created by my friend Porcupain. So all credit for this character goes to him) He was a blue earth pony, with a brown mane, blue eyes, and a brown tail. (He wasn't fat but he wasn't skinny either, he was rather chubby kind of) he also had a cutie mark was that of a piece of chalk next to a blackboard with the ABCs and 123s on it with an apple at the end of the railing. "…Princess Luna? What are you doing here?" he asked.

"I'm here to drop my son off at school" she said, looking down at Pip.

"You're son? Oh that's right! I heard rumors that you adopted a young foal, but I didn't think they were true" James said.

"Is that a problem" Luna asked with a raised eyebrow.

"N-No, no, no, n-nothing wrong, it's perfectly fine" he replied nervously, sweating with nervousness and slight fear.

"Good" she said. She then turned to Pip and smiled, and then brought him close to her chest to nuzzle him. "Good luck Sweetie, see you after school" she said then placed a kiss on his forehead. This caused him to blush with embarrassment, noticing he was in front of his class. The class started laughing but then shut their traps the second Luna gave them a stare that struck fear into their little hearts, even the teacher was scared of her. Man was being princess of the night rewarding. There was a moment of silence. That's when Mr. James finally spoke up.

"Ok class, we have a new students joining us today. Everypony say hello to Pipsqueak" he told them.

"Hi, Pipsqueak" everypony in his class greeted him in a cheery tone.

"Hey guys" he greeted back. "And please, call me Pip" he suggested.

"Well then Pip, would you like to tell us about yourself?" Mr. James asked.

"Well, I was born in Trottingham, but was raised in Ponyville until I was adopted by Princess Luna;, my favorite princess in all of Equestria!" Pip said talking about his life and about his adoptive mother.

"Did you say Ponyville?" Mr. James asked.

"Yes" Pip responded.

"Was the name of your teacher, Miss. Cheerilee?" he asked.

"Yeah, you know her?" Pip asked.

"We went to school together when we were your age, we went to the same school in Ponyville that you did. She has always talked about being a teacher. I'm glad she got what she wished for" he said, explaining his history with Pip's old teacher, and his old friend. "Now, please take your seat. You can sit in that empty seat in the middle" he said, pointing to the seat in the center of the classroom. Pip did as he was told and sat in his seat. Mr. James went on with his lesson, which ironically was about cutie marks. The lesson went on until it was time to dismiss the class for recess/lunch. Pip hopped out of his seat and headed towards the playground.

-At Recess-

Pip was on his was to the playground, when he was stopped by a colt calling out to him. He turned to face him and hesitantly walked over to him.

"Yes…?" Pip asked carefully.

"So… you think that just because you're Princess Luna's son, you better than us huh?" the colt said. He was about an inch or two taller than Pip. He had a dark green coat, an ocean blue mane and tail with sky blue streaks in them, light blue eyes, and his cutie mark was a glowing buzz saw cutting through a piece of wood.

"No, that's not what I think" Pip said, standing up for himself.

"Good, because your not. I'm Ocean Dust; my parents are one of the richest ponies in all of Canterlot. And your nothing but a Trottingham born, Ponyville raised commoner who got lucky, that's all" Ocean Breeze said.

"Yeah, a commoner" said the pony standing next to Ocean Dust. He had a coat as white as snow, a short violet mane and tail, light purple eyes, and cutie mark of a purple scarf.

"Shut it, Amethyst!" Ocean Dust told his friend known as Amethyst. (In case you don't know an Amethyst is a purple gemstone. And yes Ocean Dust and Amethyst are the male, Canterlot equivalents to Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon)

"I could care less how much money your parents have. You're just a stereotypical, spoiled, rich, brat!" Pip proclaimed. This made Ocean Dust mad. He grabbed Pip, and threw him in a nearby trash can.

"Well. That ought to teach him to not call me a spoiled rich brat" Ocean Dust said while dusting off his hooves. Pip was in there for about two minutes yelling for help. Then trash can was bucked over, allowing Pip to fall out.

"Woops! You ok?" said the colt that helped him out.

"Yeah, I'm alright" Pip said as he got up. "Let me guess, you only helped me out because I'm the son of Princess Luna, right?" Pip said, having a feeling that that was the only reason he helped.

"No, I helped because it was the right thing to do" the colt said. "Hi, my name's Solar Ray, but you can just call me Ray" said the colt known as Ray, offering a hoof of friendship. He was a golden-yellow colored unicorn, with an all white colored mane in a style similar to Rainbow Dash's, a white a short white tail that stopped at his knees, and like Pip, he had no cutie mark.

"Hi, Ray, I'm Pipsqueak, but my friends call me Pip" Pip said, shaking his hoof. "Let me guess, your parents are also one of the richest ponies in Canterlot" Pip said.

"Yeah, they are. But don't worry my parents are the ones who are snooty and stuck-up, not me. Personally, I don't care about all of that fancy, snobby stuff. I'd rather live my life as a normal colt like you" he said to Pip. Pip said in relief.

"Phew, that's a relief. I'm glad you're not that type of pony, I can't stand those types of ponies" Pip said.

"Yeah, me neither. Hey, wanna go eat lunch together?" Ray offered.

"Sure" Pip said. They walked over to the red table bench and pulled out their lunch. Pip had what his mother said she packed: Celery sticks with peanut butter on them, applesauce, and grape juice.

"Ugh! My mom packed me a lame mini lunch again" Ray complained

"Mini lunch?" Pip asked while eating his celery.

"Yeah, she packs me the little Hors d'oeuvres like caviar and stuff like that" Ray said.

"That sounds pretty good to me" Pip said.

"Yeah, but it doesn't fill me up, it only does it like, halfway" Ray said. Pip handed him on of his celery sticks to try. Ray took it and ate it. "Thanks. Now that is food. Common food is SO much better than fancy food… no offense" Ray said.

"None taken, glad you like it" Pip replied. He then finished his celery sticks, made quick work of his applesauce, and calmly drank his grape juice. He let out a light belch and excused himself. It was then that their teacher had called the students back in, signaling that recess/lunch was over.

"Well, this was fun" Ray said. Pip agreed. At the end of the day class was dismissed to go home. Pip walked alongside his new friend and told him they should hangout more. "Sure, I'd love to get to know my new friend better" Ray said.

"Cool. Well, see you tomorrow Ray" Pip said, holding his hoof up for a hoof-bump.

"Alright, see ya, Pip" Ray said, bumping Pip's hoof with his own. They then went their separate ways and headed home. Pip grew a smile upon his face and ran towards his home.

-At the castle-

When Pip made it inside the castle, he was greeted by his mother, Princess Luna.

"Hi Pip, how was your day?" Luna asked her adoptive son.

"It was… alright, mom… it was alright" Pip said. Luna sniffed the air. She smelled something bad. She noticed it was Pip.

"Ugh! What have you been doing Pip? Why do you smell like that?" Luna asked with a chuckle while holding her nose with her hoof .

"I didn't do anything. This snobby, stuck up rich kid threw me in the trash can" Pip explained.

"Oh… well then… looks like you need a bath" Luna suggested. Pip nodded in agreement. Luna then grabbed him by the back of his scarf with her teeth and carried him off to the bathroom to give him a bath.

-In the Bathroom-

"So? Did you make any new friends?" Luna asked while washing Pip's mane.

"I made one. His name's Solar Ray, but he prefers to be called Ray. He also doesn't have his cutie mark, like me" Pip said.

"That's nice" she said. She then got the bath brush and began to scrub his back.

"And get this; he's a rich kid, but his parents are the ones who are stuck up and snooty. He just wants to live a normal life, like me" he said, as his mom continued to work on the rest of his body.

"See! I told you that not every foal at school would be stuck up and snobby" she said.

"Yeah, but you were also right about there being stuck up rich kids anyway" Pip mentioned.

"I know, I'm sorry" Luna said while holding his tail and scrubbing his behind.

"It's ok, I sort of saw it coming" Pip said. He then had a bunch of water dumped on him, getting rid of the soap all over his body.

"Ok, it's time to get out" Luna said. She helped him out of the tub and placed him on the ground. Pip shook all the water off of his body. Some got on Luna, but she didn't mind. She was a mother now, so it was something she'd have to get used to. She grabbed the towel and dried the rest of the water off Pip's body and head. They smiled at each other and exited the bathroom.

-In the Hallways-

After Pip's bath, he and Luna were walking down the halls smiling. After a while, Luna finally spoke up.

"So, Pipsqueak, how many friends did you have back in Ponyville?" she asked, walking beside her adoptive foal.

"…Mmm… not that many. Let's see… there was Rumble, Dinky, Scootaloo, Applebloom, and Sweetie Belle" he said, listing all his friends back in Ponyville. "Why do ask?"

"Well, since you're my son I thought it should be my motherly duty to know who your friends were. That, and the Grand Galloping Gala is coming up in a few months, and thought it'd be fun for you to see all your little friends again" Luna explained.

"Wow! Thanks mom" Pip thanked his mom.

"No worries my little pony. So that's six tickets?" Luna said.

"Six?" Pip asked with confusion.

"You want your new friend to come and be friends with your old friends don't you?" Luna questioned with a smile and a raised eyebrow.

"Good point. I should invite Ray, I mean he is my friend after all" Pip said.

"That's the spirit. So that's six tickets?" she said.

"Yes" Pip confirmed. Luna used her magic and six tickets appeared in front of her. She then handed them to her son. "Thanks" he said.

"Your welcome. Be sure to remember to give them out to all six of your friends" Luna told him. Pip nodded, which caused Luna to rub his head gently. Unlike her sister's tickets, Luna's tickets were sapphire (in terms of color). Pip put his tickets away and they continued their walk down the hall. During their walk they heard a growl, which Pip noticed was coming from his stomach. He looked down and heard his stomach growl once more.

"Eheh" Pip chuckled nervously, blushing with embarrassment. Luna playfully rolled her eyes while shaking her head. She looked at him with a smile and gestured her head to tell Pip to follow her to the dining room.

-In the Dining Room-

Pip and Luna walked in to the dining room and noticed Celestia sitting at the head of the table drinking her tea. They sat at the table, with Luna sitting beside her sister, and Pip sitting next to his mother.

"Wow Aunt Celestia, you sure do drink a lot of tea" Pip commented. Celestia warmly smiled at him. Luna then clapped her hooves to get a chef's attention.

"Excuse me kind chef" Luna said. "My son would like a snack, if that isn't too much trouble" she said.

"Certainly Princess Luna, I'd be happy to fetch the young Prince a snack" the chef said. Luna nodded. The chef came back moments later with Pip's snack, which was apple fries with cinnamon-caramel dipping sauce.

"So, Pip, how was your day?" Celestia asked her nephew.

"It was alright" Pip told his aunt.

"That's good to hear. See? I told you there was nothing to worry about" Celestia said. She was then about to take a sip of her tea when she accidently released her magical hold on it and dropped it. It was about to fall when it was caught by a midnight blue aura. The cup was then placed back on the table in front of Celestia. "Phew, thanks Luna" Celestia thanked her.

"That wasn't me" Luna said. They gave each other confused glances, and then looked at Pip. Pip simply smiled at them with embarrassment. "Pip… was that you who just did that?" Luna asked.

"…Uh-huh" Pip said nervously with a nod.

"Where did you learn to do that?" Celestia asked.

"From a book called: Magic and Spells for earth ponies" Pip told her "I've only read a few pages of it though. It only took me a few days to learn how to levitate things. It wasn't really that hard" Pip said.

"Amazing. It takes young unicorns weeks, or even months to learn how to use the levitation spell properly depending on how heavy the object is. And you've only learned how to do it in a few days? Very impressive" Celestia said.

"And the funny part is I've only had the book for about a week!" Pip said, a little cocky.

"Hmm, then you must be a fast learner" Luna told him. "I'm very proud of you sweetie" she told him.

"Thanks, mom" Pip replied. Luna and Celestia then looked at each other and smiled. Now that Pip has learned some magic, things around the castle were about to get a lot more… interesting.

And that raps up Chapter 4 of: Luna's Foal. Stay tuned for Chapter 5 when Pip goes to his first Grand Galloping Gala.
