Chapter 1: The Next Morning

Twilight woke to the cries of her baby dragon. It was still early morning, and the sun wasn't even out yet. All out of gemstones to feed him, and with much rush required, she put away her bookfort, gathered Spike in her saddlebags, and headed back to her room. Spike managed to calm down along the way. He liked the movement she made when she walked. It was... relaxing. Her other saddlebag had the book she was reading with a well-placed bookmark.

She got to her door in ten minutes' time. Not that she was running, but just something to note. A light green glow could be seen under her door, and only getting brighter, the closer she got to it. Okay, that's new... is there a unicorn in there already? No, I locked... Well, maybe they know an unlocking spell. In any case, I have to get in there she thought to herself. Trying to open the door slowly proved to be no use, as it was indeed still locked. "That's certainly strange." After unlocking it, she swore she could hear the sound of something opening and closing in her room, but couldn't be sure. She opened the door to see a ball of green light emanating from the middle of the celestial insignia on the floor.

Once the light faded into nothing, she was able to get a closer look. In its place was... something, wrapped in a green cloth. Standing next to it, and having never seen something like that before that day, she couldn't help but ask herself, "What is... this?" She got her head close to it. "It's not a pony. The muzzle's too small, so are the ears." Backing up, she continued, "The ears are definitely pointed though. Maybe the princess can tell me what it is."

Setting the book from her bag on her nightstand, she noticed a light blue glow coming from her drawer. First green, now blue... she complained to herself. Opening the drawer revealed a light blue ball of light with wings.

"D-don't eat me! I don't taste very good!" The ball of light looked as though it were shaking. It was huddled in the back left corner, away from the strange giant looking in. After a moment, it stopped shaking. "Wait, you look like a horse. You're not a meat eater." She sighed and came out of the corner. "And here I was afraid of you. Silly me." She flew out of the drawer and got next to the green cloth on the floor.

Twilight looked at the ball as it flew from the drawer. "Of course I'm not going to eat you. I don't even know what you are. What are you? Who are you?" She asked, walking closer to them. "And how did you get in my drawer?"

"Y-you can... talk. I mean, I can understand horses talking horse, but you're speaking like me." Feeling safer, she dimmed her light. It showed a small frame, light blue skin, dark blue outfit, blue hair, and almost clear wings coming out of its back. "Answering your questions: I'm a Fairy. My name is Navi, a pleasure to meet you. Your drawer was open, and I flew inside it to hide from the noise you made outside, thinking it was a dangerous monster."

"It was open? ... I forgot to close it in my hurry to the library," she talked to herself. "Anyway, I am Twilight Sparkle. Can I ask what that is? I've never seen one before. Actually, I've never seen a fairy before either." She sat down, lifting Spike out of her bag with her magic, and set him down next to her. Then she levitated a gem from the counter over to him.

Navi landed on the green cloth where his name was. "This is Link. I've been instructed to be his companion. He's a human Hylian." Is she the equivalent of intelligent life here? it's hard to tell this early. I must press for information she thought. "A baby human called a child. He's in his early stage in life."

"He's so small." She got close to him again. "This is fascinating. Well, I'm a unicorn filly. You seem to know about horses, so I'm sure you know what that is."

"Yes, I know what a unicorn is, as well as a filly." Okay, giving credit, she's smarter than she looks she noted. "And can you not get so close? It's a bit unsettling."

Back upright, "Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just curious, is all." She smiled, looking with wonder at both of them.

"Are... you alright?" She looked at the purple pony with a confused expression. "Also, where are we?" Turning her head to look at her surroundings, she saw a bed, dresser, counter, bookshelf, map above the bookshelf, nightstand that doubled as a hiding place and a strange-looking doll sitting on a chest by the wall.

"This is Canterlot Castle. It's the capital of Equestria. This, is my room." Twilight gestured to the room with a wave of her hoof.

"What's 'Equestria'?" The fairy asked, flying up to look at the map. "... Is it the name of your world?" She looked at Twilight.

Twilight replied, "It's the name of our nation. Are you considered intelligent among other fairies?" She asked, trying not to sound rude.

"I am considered to have impressive cognitive abilities. But beyond that, I'm average." She turned back to the map of the world. "Are you the dominant species of yours?"

"Species, as in pony, yes. But as you are already aware, there is more than one race. The third being the Pegasus. They have wings and can fly like you." Twilight was excited to have someone talk to, and on the same level as her.

"Pegasus ponies, Unicorns, and what do you call the race with neither wings nor horns?" Navi flew back to Link, who was waking up.

"Earth ponies, and the plural of pegasus is pegasi." Noticing Link, she once again leaned in close. "He's waking up."

Dominant species, obviously intelligent, no humans, and in a castle... There must be royalty here she wondered. "Obviously you're not the one in charge of the castle. Can you bring us to who is?"

"Right. The princess is a special kind of pony that has both a horn and a set of wings. Those are called 'Alicorns'." Twilight stood up, got her bags back on, and put Spike in one of them. "And yes, we can go talk to her. Her name is Princess Celestia."

"What about the Queen?" Navi had to direct her attention to Link, who was trying to grab hold of her legs. "Shouldn't the queen be the ruler?"

"Not if there isn't one... I'm going to have to carry him in my saddlebag. Would that be alright?"

"Yeah, but I'm riding with him. And be careful, he's fragile."

A light purple glow surrounds Link as Twilight put him in the other bag. She shifted under his weight as she let him go. "He's a bit heavier than I thought he'd be... Maybe I'll just carry him by magic the whole way." she lifted him out of the bag, and immediately felt relief.

"I wish you the best of luck. May I sit in your mane?"

Hesitant to give an answer, she shuffled her hooves. "Uh, just don't touch my horn."

"Alright then." Navi flew and sat in Twilight's mane, keeping an eye on Link. "What happens if I do?"

"Link would fall to the ground. I have to focus to keep him in the air."

"Ah, yeah, no touching the horn..."

"You can still be up there though." Twilight left the room with Spike, Link, and Navi in tow, and somehow got roped into carrying all of them. On the way, Twilight looked outside the window. "Oh, the sun's rising. That means the princess is up."

Navi looked down at Twilight. "The princess is the sun?"

"Ehh, something like that. More like she controls it. The sun and moon wouldn't rise or fall if not for her."

"Your world is similar to ours, in that regard," Navi said bluntly. "But, yours is the world we're in, so..."

"You'll like it here." After a few more minutes of walking, they reached the double doors leading into the main hall.

"Good morning, Miss Sparkle. You're up early. Gonna ask for another early lesson today?" The unicorn guard asked. "And what's with the green blanket?"

"I must see the princess. It's important." The unicorn guard understood and quickly opened the door. "Thank you." She then turned her attention to the princess. "Good morning. I know it's early, but-"

"You're not getting a lesson this early in the morning, no matter how you ask it, Twilight." The princess was something less of a morning pony.

"No, it's not that... It's this." She made her way to the throne, and set Link down on the carpet. "This human was in my room this morning, as well as this." Twilight looked up at the fairy in her mane.

Celestia looked at the thing in her mane. "Is that a... parasprite? What... No, you must get rid of it."

"Para-wha? No, it-"

"I'm no parasprite, whatever that is. Probably something that looks like me, and it sounds like it's bad news. But I'm a fairy. You must be the ruler of Equestria. I'm Navi, this is Link." She pointed at the cloth on the floor and flew over to it. "Our guardian spirit where we come from sent us here at the request of his family. We're in the middle of a war, and-"

Princess Celestia's expression shifted from worry to compassion in the blink of an eye. "Say no more, Navi the Fairy. Ours is a land of peace, and harmony. What I can do, is take care of the boy." The princess looked a bit too sure of herself.

"Can you really, princess? Our world doesn't have humans. How would you, or anypony, be qualified to care for a human?" Twilight forgot she was talking to a princess.

"How I know of them doesn't matter right now." Celestia turned to the guard at her side, and leaned in. She whispered something, then sent him off. "Twilight. Navi. I'll be taking him under my wing, and into my care."

"Not alone, you're not. I'm his companion. Where he goes, I follow. No questions." Navi looked at the princess. "You have a horn. Can you do magic like Twilight?"

"I can. And, I am teaching her how to use hers."

"Not many, where I come from, can perform magic. It's mostly reserved for royalty and bodyguards. If Link chooses a path that requires him to be either, he's going to need to learn magic." Navi spoke with a sense of seriousness.

Celestia replied with a grin. "A second student. I suppose it couldn't hurt to teach him as well. If he can prove to be prodigal, I will see to it that he learns magic that best fits his ability."

"Thank you so much. I don't have magic, so I couldn't teach him anything. He's too young for it right now, anyway."

The guard returned moments later with a book. "Princess." He gave it up and returned to his post.

"Thank you." Holding the book in her magic, she ushered Twilight by her side. "This is the only book in all of Equestria that will be able to help me raise this boy, but I cannot do it alone. I want your help with this."

Twilight walked over, and looked at the cover. "'Anthropology'? Interesting name." Laying down by the throne, she continued, "Should we get started then?"

Celestia and Twilight spent the day together reading this book. Navi fell asleep on Link before long. She had to do so out of reach. Link was next to Twilight for the whole day. They read about the eating habits, the clothing habits, and the diaper changing of the little ones. One guard brought in a stack of diapers for them. They took turns changing him throughout day.
