Foals Of Harmony

by Shadowmane PX-41

Chapter 11: A World Without Age

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

I watched as more and more ponies came to the Shrine. At first I thought it was all well and good, but I also noticed that there were some other bronies' OCs being added into the mix. I questioned this occurrence for a while, before I remembered that Discord was controlling this fic now, he had the power.

I also wondered why he would do this for a few moments. All I wanted were a few new foals to play with, but this was starting to get ridiculous on a number of my accounts. First off, how could he even fit all these guys and gals here? Second, how did he even find them if they lived in America?

I decided not to take this too seriously, as this was an Age-Regression story, and that any further regressing was an okay thing here. I decided to bear a smile and a cute voice as I welcomed these OC foals with open hearts and warm hugs.

The first OC foal had spiky light blue hair, a brown coat, and shiny sky-blue eyes. He was a pegasus known only as Sky Hooves. He was accompanied by a little white pegasus with black hair and blue eyes. This one was Night--Mist, the one and only. He was a famous Age-Regression artist, like me, but nowadays it seems like he spends all of his time writing blog posts instead of updating his stories.

"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh! Night--Mist!" I said, happy to see him after so long. "I'm such a huge fan of youw wowk, Night--Mist! Teww me, how do yoo do it?" I was clearly fangirling over him, Night--Mist is one of my favourite writers on this site, along with TheConflictedWriter, MythrilMoth, and many others.

"Howd up..." He said, remembering my voice and character design now. "Shadowmane? Shadowmane PX-41?" He asked me, to get clarification.

"Yes, it's me, Nighty." I said, giggling at the clever nickname I gave to him. "I'm back at da wheew aftew so wong." Then I remembered that I wasn't alone and that I needed to give my partner some credit as well. "Oh, and Discowd's hewe wid me as weww. Say hi, Nighty."

"Hi, Discowd." He waved up to the ceiling, remembering that Discord was watching this fic unfold from my room.

"Hello, Night--Mist." He said casually, as if he was just exchanging pleasantries.

"So, if you'we Shadowmane, does dat mean..." Sky Hooves pondered as he decided to piece a puzzle together on where they were at long last.

"Dat's wight, wewcome ta Foaws Of Hawmony." I said, telling him exactly where he and Night--Mist had wound up. "Wight now you'we in a chaptew cawwed A Wowwd Without Age. Whewe Discowd-"

"Shadowmane, spoilers!" Discord said, covering my mouth with his bear hand again. "Have you not learned anything from Shadowsun, The Demon Queen?"

"Shadowsun?" I asked.

"Sunset Satan wouldn't do anymore, it was getting a little too boring. So I jazzed it up a little." Discord was now wearing a jazz outfit and was wearing a sash, which was holding a saxophone.

"Oh, wight." I said, remembering that I too was in favor of naming Sunset Shimmer's Demon, so that it sounded dark and villainous. "I fowgot aww about dat."

"Discowd, wat do yoo want wid us?" Sky Hooves asked him with a look of concern and anger on his face. "We did noting wwong wid ouw wives."

"Even I agwee wid Sky Hooves." I backed him up and we both stared down Discord with eyes that could pierce metal "Dis isn't wat I wanted. I wanted some new foaws, not fow yoo to steaw othew wwitews."

"Yoo bettew have a good expwanation fow dis, Discowd, ow ewse." Night--Mist stood with us, making us a trio of confident foals who were brave enough to stare down a Draconequus.

"Or else what?" He said slyly as he thought he had nothing to fear.

"Ow ewse, we'ww teww Mama on yoo, and den you'ww get kicked out of dis stowy and tuwned back into stone." I explained to him, still retaining my pride and dignity, even if I was speaking in a foal's voice.

"Oh, fine. If you want to hear my story, I guess I could spare you a few minutes." He said as he brought up a special book and held it down to our faces.

"Once upon a time, there was a writer called Shadowmane PX-41, a Draconequus called Discord, and a world without age." Discord's story suddenly had animated pictures that accurately portrayed what he was talking about.

"The world without age started with a story called Eternal Foalhood, made by Shadowmane. Here, he took many writers from the FIMFiction world, and placed them into one story, where they could all live in peace and harmony, never worrying about dying of old age, when foal ages was the only age in this world."

"Sounds bowing." I said, deadpanning the idea in a few seconds flat. "My Age-Wegwession stowies awways have a pwot behind dem, but having an Age-Wegwession stowy wid no pwotwine, wouwd make it seem bowing and pointwess."

"It worked for and is still working for Super-Stallion, the author of Foal Adventures." He said as he brought up the Foal Adventures main page, which had 132 likes and only 16 dislikes. "And I should know, as I've worked with him. By the way, he makes a TON of spelling errors, and he never even bothers to fix them."

"Yeah." Sky Hooves said, remembering that Super-Stallion DID make a lot of spelling errors in his time. "Teww me about it."

"Anyways, in this story, which Shadowmane WILL make, sooner or later, it involves him, and a select group of foalized writers going on a quest around their world, finding out the truth about the power of Age-Regression, so that they can find some way to control its' mighty powers, and become the rulers of their eternal land."

"Otay, I'ww bite, Discowd." Night--Mist said, looking quite intrigued by the final idea. "Dat sounds wike an intewesting fic."

"And someday, Shadowmane here will be responsible for maintaining this magnificent new world of his, making sure that everything is hunky-dory for his kind." Discord make the book vanish, so that he could see us again.

"But, dat doesn't expwain wat Nighty and Sky awe hewe." I said, looking even more confused than usual. "Yoo just expwained a possibwe futuwe stowy, and not why Nighty and Sky awe hewe."

"Oh, THAT." Discord said, finally realizing what I was asking from him. "My bad."

"Wight den, no mowe fawse stowies, Discowd." I wanted to validate this fact with him. "If yoo tawk about any futuwe wowks and wefuse to tawk about why Nighty and Sky awe here, I'ww have Mama tuwn yoo back into stone and smash yoo up on da spot."

"Alright then, for Night--Mist, this is his punishment for not updating his stories in FOREVER." He turned to face the little white and black pegasus foal with a little scowl. "I know you have Navy business to attend to, but you have to at least update your fics at a regular rate. I mean, take Shadowmane here, he updates his fics regularly, even though he has school, Call of Duty, family events, and many other things to attend to as well. Could you take a little piece from his book once in a while?"

"I'ww twy." Night--Mist said, hanging his head in shame as even he admitted he was starting to fall behind on his stories.

"And as for you, Sky Hooves." Discord turned once more, to eye down the brown pegasus with sky-blue hair. "You need to take a little vacation from your hard work, and this is the best way to do it."

"Otay, I tink I get dis now." He said, placing a hoof in his mouth, as per his newly developing instincts would permit him to do so. "So dis is aww pawt of youw pwan, is it?"

"Yes, yes it is." He said, tenting his fingers together with a smile in his face. "I won't go into more detail now, you three need some time to play before the sun sets." Discord revealed to us the sun, and how it was very close to setting. Then he vanished in a flash of light.

"Oh, wight, da stowy." I said, as I looked at the Mane 6, who were now playing with Photo Finish, Sunny, Flitter and Twixie. "I spent so much time tawking about stowies, I fowgot da cute pawts of dis stowy."

"Weww, wet's go den." Sky Hooves said, as he moved his diapered flank over to the rest of the group, not even giving us a few seconds to react. "I need some entewtainment anyways."

"Yoo coming, Nighty?" I called back and now saw that he was curled up in a ball-like fashion, obviously worried about something. I could see it in his eyes, he missed being in his story.

"Wiww I evew see my Mama again?" He asked me. Knowing that he had grown fond of being mothered by Luna in his own story, he was worried whether or not he'd be able to see her again.

"Absowutewy." I said, remembering that I too had Luna as my Mama in this story. I sat down and patted his back. "Dun wowwy abuot dis, Nighty. I too have Wuwu as my Mama, Wuwu AND Tia to be pwecise.

"Dat's... Actuawwy much bettew den I couwd have hoped." Night--Mist looked up at me with a smile on his face now. "Yeah, wet's go and pway."

"Good ta heaw dat." I walked over to the rest of the rest of the playing foals with Night--Mist close behind me. "Wewcome to my stowy, Nighty. I hope yoo enjoy youw time hewe."

And with that, the three of us went back to our regular foalish business. Playing with our friends, doing foal stuff, and having a good time in general.


"Hey, Shad." The Mane 6 greeted me once I got back to them, with two new foals behind me.

"Hey, giwws." I greeted them happily and began to show them the foals I have just included the story. "I'd wike yoo to meet Nighty and Sky." I pointed both of them out, so the girls could remember their names well and that they wouldn't confuse one with the other.

"Hi." They both waved.

"Hewwo dewe. I'm Fwittew, dat's Cwoudchasew, thewe's Sapphiwe Showes, and next ta me is Photo Finish." Flitter greeted Night--Mist and Sky Hooves, then pointed out each of the foals as she said their names. "Thewe awe many mowe foaws you'ww meet, but we'we da ones dat Shad had da most time wid."

"A pweasuwe ta meet yoo, Fwittew." Sky Hooves smiled and walked up to her and then sat down in front of her. "Yoo wanna pway pattycake wid me?"

"Hehe, otay, Sky." She giggled and pulled up her hooves to begin. "I awways wike pwaying dis game, especiawwy when I do it wid Shad and his fwiends."

"Yeah, Shad's a nice guy once yoo get ta know him." Night--Mist began to play pattycake with Flitter, bumping his hooves against hers, whilst singing a melodic rhyme as they played. "One wittwe bweezie, fwying fweewy, with his fwiend, who was touchy-feewy."

"Tagedew da two dem wewe pewfectwy gweat, untiw dey both awwived home wate!" Flitter said, ending the rhyme in a hilarious note. After her ending, she laughed happily, with Night--Mist joining in too.

"Hehe, you'we weawwy good at dis, Nighty." Flitter said, as she finally calmed herself to talk to him.

"Tanks, yoo two." He said back. "I'm pwetty good at whyming tings."

"I tink yoo and I awe gonna have a gweat time tagedew, Nighty." Flitter said as she and Night--Mist went off to another area of the Shrine, so that they could find something else to do with their remaining time.

"So, Shad. How accompwished a wwitew wouwd yoo say yoo awe?" Sky Hooves asked me, obviously a fanboy of my work who liked answering questions.

"I'd say I'm a pwetty good wwitew in aww honesty. I make a tiny bit of punctuation ewwows at times and don't even know about dem. Wuckiwy, I have weadews to point dem out ta me, so I can fix dem." I explained to Sky Hooves as best I could, since I was a foal like him.

"Otay, weww now dat I got an impowtant question off of my chest, yoo wanna pway wid me?" He asked me as he looked around for something for the both of us to use. "Ummmm... Ah, dewe dey awe." He pointed out a nearby scattering of blocks, both oddly shaped and lettered.

"Suwe, I awways wike a bit of fun." I agreed, but then decided to invite some more friends to play with us. "Twixie, Sunny, yoo two wanna pway wid us?"

"Suwe, coming, Shad." The two of them shared a giggle before coming over with us to the nearby blocks so that we were all doing this together.

"Who shouwd have de honouws of stawting us off?" Sunset asked the group, eager to begin as always.

"I vote Twixie." Sky Hooves said, pointing a hoof at Trixie, who looked a little surprised and happy at the same time. "She's pwetty as a foaw."

"Hehe, tanks, Sky." Trixie blushed at the comment that Sky Hooves had given her. "But I dun tink I desewve dat offew."

"Oh, come on, Twixie. I've awways wanted ta see how cute yoo'd be when you'we a foaw." Sky Hooves pleaded lightly for her. "Do it fow me, and Shad hewe."

"Uh, whadda yoo tink, Sunny?" Trixie decided to consult the only other filly of this group, "Shouwd I go fiwst?"

"Pewsonawwy, I agwee wid Shad and Sky hewe." Sunset began to explain to Trixie. "Yoo awways cawwed youwsewf da Gweat And Powewfuw Twixie! aftew aww." Sunset said, imitating the old Trixie as she did.

"Weww..." She looked at the two of us again.

"Pwease?" We both asked together, in a foalish manner which usually caused anyone to yield.

"Otay den, Da Gweat And Powewfuw Twixie wiww begin!" She said, playacting in her usual manner.

"Yay!!!" We all decided to play on with Trixie's little make-believe and applauded her as she placed the first block in place.

There was no doubt about it, Sky Hooves and Night--Mist were going to feel right at home in this fic and the one focused on us all, as well as Trixie and Sunset. I will get around to making that fic one day, and it would be appreciated if someone reading this could make a picture for the other story I explained earlier.

But requests for a picture for the other story, I think life in this fic was going to be perfect, and it would only get better from here, now that I had Night--Mist and Sky Hooves here with me to keep me company.


"Alright, everyone, it's time for your last meal before you go to bed." Glimmer said as she had her colleagues gather the rest of the foals up for our last feeding. Glimmer was a kind and caring unicorn worker here and was focused exclusively on caring for me, Trixie and Sunset. She had a nice shining purple poofy mane and a aquamarine coat. Her Cutie Mark happened to be a bright flash of light for some reason I never discovered.

She picked me up with her magic and gave me my fair share of breast milk, as the other workers were feeding their foals. She raised me up to her nice teat, and I began nursing within seconds of reaching said teat.

The milk I drank was nice and warm, with a nice little hint of cinnamon thrown in for good measure. But either way, it was breast milk and I loved drinking every drop of it.

Once I finished drinking my fill, Glimmer burped me gently, which caused me to laugh happily. After that, I was laid down in a crib with Trixie and Sunset, who looked quite cozy under the blankets.

"Night-Night, Sky. Night-Night, Nighty." I said to Sky Hooves and Night--Mist as they were being carried over to another crib away from me. I wished the two a good night before they were laid down to sleep.

"Night-Night, Shad." They both called out, waving me a goodnight before being taken away to their crib for the night.

"Night-Night, giwws." I called out to the Mane 6, as I now saw that Celestia was taking them back to their room for the night. It was the rightful thing to do, as they were under Celestia's and Luna's guidances. They were their children after all, not my six sisters. Though a part of me wishes that was the case, the other parts are glad that it isn't the case.

"Night-Night, Shad." They all called out before they left the Shrine for the night.

After they left me, Night--Mist and Sky Hooves to sleep, we all got pacifiers for the night, to help us sleep without being disturbed. The caretakers we all had were now singing lullabies to help us get to sleep, and once they had all finished, we were all snoozing quite nicely, waiting for the next day to begin.


Meanwhile, Celestia looked back at the Mane 6 and saw that they were fast asleep themselves. They were all snoring or talking in their sleep and it looked so cute to her.

"Sleep tight, girls." She said as she carried them back to their main room for the night. Once she got to the door, she was greeted by Luna, who held the door open for her sister, who complimented her for this action. "Thanks, Luna."

"You're welcome, sister." She said as she let Celestia in to lay the foals down to their beds. She then peeked in to see that Celestia was kissing the foals as she tucked them in for the night.

"Have a good night, girls." Celestia said quietly as she made it to the door and then walked out. She shut the door quietly and then turned to face her sister, who looked at her with a smile on her face.

"You seem to have a lot of affection for the girls, I see." Luna said, looking at Celestia with a little smirkish look. "Do you think I could ever be that nice around foals?"

"Oh, don't worry yourself with that, Luna." Celestia said as the two of them walked down the corridor to let the Mane 6 sleep for the night. "I've seen it deep within your heart many times. You know how to be kind and caring to any infant, whether they be pony or animal."

"You really think so?" She wanted a little clarification, she knew it was her sister she was talking to, but she wanted to be sure.

"I know so." Celestia unfurled her wing around Luna's body, so that she felt comforted. "Come on, let's get some cake." And with that, the two motherly rulers went off to get some cake.

Author's Notes:

So, this chapter features significantly less Mane 6 and for that, I apologize if this made you feel a little robbed.

But still, I have an idea with the additions of Night--Mist and Sky Hooves in this story. If you guys would like Discord to turn you into foals and add them to my side story: Shrinelights: The Writer's Stories. I will try and add as many people as possible, that is if you want to be turned into a foal and treated with a caring caretaker. Leave a comment if you want to be turned into a foal and put into a fanfic, I'll try and get back to as many people as possible.

Also, on another note, I'm starting a Q&A series on my Blog Posts, so if you've got any questions for me, be sure to drop them in the comments below, so that I can read them and answer them for you guys. But if you are leaving questions for my Q&A series, make sure they're clean. Any rude questions will not be answered and you may be prohibited from answering any more if you do so. So, leave me some questions, make sure they're clean for the audience who watches, and I'll try and answer as many as possible.

Until next time guys, This is Shadowmane PX-41...

Sky Hooves...

And Night--Mist...

Wishing you goodnight!
