The whole manor was buzzing with excitement. The servants were all preparing for the return of their kind master the Baron and his new wife. But none more excited than the eight year-old Baroness.


"Oh Fluttershy! This is just like Hearts Warming!" the blue pegasus filly cried. "I am getting a mother and two sisters in one day! And fathers coming back!"

The young servant mare smiled as she gently brushed the filly's rainbow mane.

"Well, it's not just for you. The Baron has needed another mare in his life." She said softly. "Although he has you, he also needs some pony to take care of you."

Before the Fluttershy could finish brushing, the filly started bouncing around her room. Fluttershy's smile disappeared.

"Rainbow Dash, you have to hold still, your father will be back soon." She said standing up.

A pink pony with a curly mane burst into the room.

"Rainbow Dash! You sit down right now!"

But the young filly still flew around the room. She then paused and landed in front of a full length mirror.

"What if they don't like me?" she asked.

The pink mare went up to the foal.

"Of course they'll like you. Just as long as you are the good little angel I know is in there." She smiled.

"Thanks Pinkie."

The free then turned to the window when they heard a tapping against the window. Rainbow Dash walked over to look outside, she looked down with anger at the young, short, purple and green dragon throwing rocks at the window.

"Spike!" The pegasus yelled. "I told you not today!"

The dragon cringed.

"You look like a girl!" he called back.

Rainbow Dash looked down at her dress. It had a pale vest sewn together with green thread which matched her skirt and sleeves. Her mane was pulled back and plaited with a green ribbon tied into it. She to cringed, but she didn't want to disappoint her father.

"I am a girl you dim-wit!" she replied.

"Yeah but know you look like one!"

"Boy or girl! I can still beat you!"

"Yeah right!"

Rainbow's face turned red with anger as she burst out the room and out of the manor to prove the dragon wrong.


All the servants lined up near the wall. Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie joining them. A cheese coloured pony with a curly brown mane took three steps in front of the others. A black carriage appeared into view; pulled by two black stallions. As the carriage pulled up the head of a purple stallion with gold eyes and a rainbow mane poked out of the window. When the carriage stopped, the stallion pushed the door opened as he stepped out.

"Welcome back master." Said the cheese coloured stallion.

"Thank you Cheese Sandwich." He smiled. "Now where is my daughter?"

Just then, the filly ran towards her father, her dress and mane covered in mud.

"Daddy!" she yelled.

The stallion smiled as he picked his daughter up and lifted her high before placing her back on the ground.

"Hello miss. I was hoping to present a young mare." He chuckled. "I guess you will do. What have you been doing Dash? Playing with your friend?"
