Chapter 41 - The life of cockroach the unicorn

In the palace you could see the whole imperial family sleeping in a large bed, while they were enjoying the world of dreams

In the barn was cockroach this unicorn stallion has not lost time now is the proud father of more than 200 small unicorns, all thanks to Hellena wants his children to have the best mounts did not allow him to rest, although he does not care either he likes it.

Cockroach was eating some oatmeal with egg to keep his fur, when I hear strange noises in the barn, he was not afraid because he was protected by the emperress who would not hesitate to avenge him if something bad happened to him without mentioning that there were always guards for the place It was sad that it was not for him but because it was a gift from her husband.

Out of the darkness of the barn came a woman carrying a little baby and an elf guard, she was a member of the nahuales, she had asked Flavio’s permission through Yolotl to allow her daughter to be marked with a cockroach lick, this occasional that your baby could be transformed into a unicorn.

The guard said "Very good cockroach, you have a mission from the emperor, I present you to Italivi and her baby Xochitl, they are nahuales who have a mission with you"

Italivi was presented before cockroach "I am a nahual of the empire, sorry if it bothers you in your food but my daughter has chosen you as her animal guardian, so I hope you can meet her"

Cockroach looked at the little girl who looked at him with loving eyes "Although I understand a bit how you work the nahuales which means that I am your guardian"

"It’s pretty simple you just have to lick her head, with this the pact between her and you will be sealed, this pact will not affect you at all it will only make her a unicorn" Italivi said while holding her baby who was looking to go towards cockroach.

Cockroach had no reason to refuse and before lick the little girl asked her mother "Who is your guardian animal, if it is not annoying to know?"

Italivi looked at him curiously "It is a cougar, a carnivorous animal that is majestic, I have to admit that being in that state awakens my instincts to consume meat"

Cockroach could only feel a little cold sweat on his back, but I ignore it quickly and went to lick the baby’s head.

After his tongue passed through the baby’s head, he began to laugh as little by little he became a little unicorn foal, Cockroach was surprised when he saw the little one, unicorns are species that rarely have women so Generally the Unicorn transmits his genes with horses, when a unicorn has a daughter, he is obligated to take care of her until she is older and to fend for herself.

Xochitl the little nahual was in her animal state of filly, with her trembling legs walked around cockroach while rubbing her fur, Italivi was happy to see her little girl being taken care of by cockroach and told

"Cockroach from now on you will be taking care of Italivi, as a guardian it is important that you teach her the rules as an animal that she has to follow do not worry I will be living with you and with her to help you guide her"

Cockroach was surprised by his words but his instinct for protection with Italivi does not allow him to refuse, he had to accept taking care of the little girl while the mother also took care of them.

In the morning, Cockroach was teaching Italivi how he can use his legs so that he can walk without trembling. "Remember that you have to take better care of your legs, fold your hoof here and now recharge it here"

The filly was following the cockroach instructions perfectly, while Italivi in ??his puma form saw them while he was still asleep.

The weeks began to pass and in the field you could see Italivi eating crocodile meat that he hunted while taking care of his little girl and cockroach, cockroach was running across the field with his beautiful white fur and behind him was a small unicorn trotting the same with his fur White.

Cockroach was talking to her little girl "If you can Xochitl follow if I’m sure that in a few months you’ll be able to run like me"

Xochitl looked askance "Papa, if you run with less speed maybe I could reach you, It is not fair because Hellana told me that I still have not developed a more mature mosculature, but you will see that papa will overtake and surpass you, I am sure that mother will also be proud of me."

"We are already proud of you, you do not need to run faster my girl, always remember that we will be there to help you"

Cockroach could only sigh just a few weeks ago learned to speak Xochitl and can already make complete conversations, this is a peculiarity of the unicorn they can talk no matter if they are newborns or do not know the language, this is so they can have a conversation with their riders, this shows that unicorns are the best mounts.

Because xochitl called dad a cockroach is because his mom and cockroach seem to be very close, she can feel it but does not want to say anything about it knows that his father died in a battle before she was born, so his mother was left alone but once she met the cockroach she was very happy, sometimes she even sleeps between them so as not to be cold at night.

That same night cockroach and Italivi were talking "What did you want to say to me my honey"

Italivi looked decisively at Cockroach and said "I’m pregnant"

Cockroach said "What, How but most important when!!"

Hellena and Flavio who had entered the barn and heard everything could not contain "What !!" ...
