    Celestia had called me again to meet with her once more to negotiate something that she said was urgent. I had heard that others were going to attend this meeting as well. I was still living at the wonderbolts academy because I had felt at home there. Celestia had offered me a house over in Canterlot but I declined. I felt better living there at the base with the bolts because I had already became friends with the bolts there. I walked outside of my house at the base and took off to Canterlot to go and meet up with Celestia. I told Rainbow to meet me there as well. After the meeting I wanted to spend the day with her at Canterlot. When I arrived at Canterlot, I had my armor on for the first time. It was a bright gold and had a star in the middle where my chest was. The helmet was gold as well and had a blue crest on the top. It matched the color of my mane. I walked through the city and, for the first time, received respect. I loved it to be honest. Everypony would watch me as I walked by and they just stared or stopped what they were doing when I did go by. One pony even saluted to me as I walked past him.
"Wow I get a lot of attention just for being a guard? This is amazing!" I said out loud as I continued toward the castle. When I arrived there, the guards in the front saluted me as I walked to the front of the castle. They opened the doors for me. Every guard I passed, they saluted me without hesitation. I kept just looking forward with a straight face and walked into Celestia's situation room. Four guards stood on the outside of the room. They all saluted and one of them opened the door for me. Inside it was slightly darker and there was a long table with three other ponies inside. Celestia was there and so was Luna, and Shining Armor was there as well in his armor and his helmet was in the table.
"Glad to see you made it buddy." Shining armor said to me. I looked at him and smiled as I walked to the table and took off my helmet and placed it on the table.
"So how is the guard treating you Soarin?" Luna asked. I looked up at her and cleared my throat.
"It's amazing mom, everypony gives me respect and salutes me. A stallion could get used to this." I replied with a smile. She just laughed and walked over to hug me. We both hugged eachother and walked back to our respective sides of the table.
"Now, the reason I called you all hear in such a private place and on such short notice was because I wanted to ask you all a question about forming an alliance. It is a very tricky procedure and we cannot let this information get in the hooves of the wrong ponies." Celestia said. We all looked at each other and wondered why Celestia wanted to create an alliance.
"May I ask why you are creating this alliance Princess?" Shining armor asked. She looked at him and smiled.
"The reason am proposing this alliance is because if some enemy like Doom comes up in the near future, we can prevent him from doing as much damage as Doom had did by retaliating in large numbers and putting together all of our minds. To exterminate any threats that may rise." Celestia replied. It made sense why she was doing this. We had to stop enemies like this from trying to take over Equestria again. This sounded like a pretty good solution to any threat. "Now you are all here for a reason. My sister luna is here because I need her to utilize her royal guard and use her magic and power of the night to help us in any situation. Shining Armor, you are here because you have strong defensive spells and you control the earth and unicorn royal guards and we could use that too. Soarin, you are here to utilize your knowledge of the skys and your fellow pegusai royal guards and, if you need, the wonderbolts as well. Your dexterity and ability to stay calm in situations of peril will come in handy." Celestia told us. We all nodded in agreement and we all could tell this alliance could actually make Equestria a more peaceful place.
"Ok so who here is in favor of this alliance?" Luna said. We all raised our hooves and laughed at each other.
"Then I guess that seals the deal." I said. I looked over at Shining armor and high fived his hoof.
"Good, if we could get all your hoof prints on this document, then we will all agree to be on the Solar Alliance." Celestia said with a smile. I looked over at Luna and she was disgusted by the name. She had an odd look on her face, but she shook it off and put her hoof prints on the document. She then passed the document to Shining armor and he did the same. He passed it to me and I looked at it for a moment. It had all of the ponies prints, except mine and I was reading part of it in my head. I then read to the bottom and put my hoof prints on it and slid it over to Celestia. "This is history, Fillies and Gentlecolts. We might have just prevented a future war or an uprise of ponies from completely tearing apart this great land." Celestia said. We all looked at each other with pride and happiness. I walked over to Luna and talked to her for a bit. We were just talking about my first day as a guard and she told me she was very proud. That made me feel happy that I was making my mother proud. I hugged her once more, and said goodbye to her. I grabbed my helmet, put it on, and left outside the castle. When I got outside, I was looking around for Rainbow Dash. She was sitting at a table near the castle. I could see her. I flew over to her, picked her up off the seat, and flew up and stopped in the air.
"Hey Soarin, you scared me there for a bit." She said happily. I kissed her on the cheek and looked into her eyes.
"What? Rainbow Dash, scared?" I said to her in a sarcastic tone. She just giggled as I was still carrying her. She lifted her head up to mine and kissed me back.
"Wow, you look amazing in that armor. How did you get it?" She asked me. I flew back down to the ground with her and set her down. I then did an epic pose in the air, so that my armor would be gleaming in the sun.
"Princess Celestia named me the captain of the RGAF!" I said to her in a prideful tone. She looked at me and started to blush.
"I can't believe my special somepony is the captain of the RGAF! That is amazing!" She yelled as she flew up to me, tackled me down, and hugged me. We were both laughing and decided to go eat and walk around Canterlot for a while. I had bought Rainbow a new dress and other small items, even though she told me not to waste my bits, I still did. We both flew to her house and we stayed outside for a bit and enjoyed each others company.
"Hey, Rainbow. I was thinking and well I was wondering if.....well......if you wanted to, you know, move in with me. We could live together and sleep together, and oh you could meet and talk with more of the wonderbolts because I still keep in touch with them." I asked her. She sat up and looked at me. I could tell I was blushing right away.
"Aww would you look at that? The top gun ace and commander of the RGAF and he is blushing hahahah." She said to me. That didn't help, in fact it made my blushing worse! "But my answer is yes, ill move in with you Soarin." She said to me. I lifted my head up and looked at her with excitement. My heart was pounding. It felt like it was going to pop out of me chest. I ran up to her and hugged her as we both hit the ground. We were both laughing and we both kissed each other again. I could feel excitement and relief rush through my body as I kissed her.
"Well, I guess ill go to my house tonight. Tomorrow I will come over and help you move your stuff to my house ok Rainbow?" I said to her. She shook her head in agreement and we both kissed one last time that night. When I flew back to my house, I felt amazing. I actually started flying all around the sky and doing stunts for no reason what so ever. I was just so damn happy she said yes.
-------------------------------
The next morning I woke up and was happy to know that Rainbow was going to move in with me. I started to feel happy and anxious. I quickly got out of bed and walked over into my living room and anxiously awaited Rainbow to come to my house and tell me that she is ready to move in. I was literally just siting down and waiting for a knock on the door. I finally heard the knock on the door and I walked over to answer it. I didn't have my armor on this time. I didn't feel like wearing it. I walked up and answered the door. Sure enough, it was her. I hugged her and she had told me that she needed help getting stuff from her house over to mine. So I decided to help her out.
"I can't wait until you move in with me, it's gunna be awesome." I told her. She looked at me and laughed.
"Yes I am too Soarin. It's gunna be awesome to live with you, we won't have to go to separate houses anymore." She replied. I was honestly happy to have her in my life. She gave me something to fight for and something I cannot lose. I just looked at her and smiles because I knew she was my life now. I couldn't deny that. While I was taking her stuff to my house, I saw that a mail pony had left a letter in my mailbox that was from Princess Celestia. I had put the stuff down from Rainbow's house and read the letter. There was something that she needed to tell me. It was private, I could tell that it was because she kept it confidential. The letter said that Celestia was going to meet me at the Wonderbolts academy.
"Hey I have to go do something. The princess needs me ok. Ill be right back." I told Rainbow. She just smiled and nodded. I walked over near the front of the academy and I saw Celestia there, alone. I had put on my armor before I left. I saw her and bowed to her. "What is it you need Princess?" I asked her. She looked down at me. She was wearing a robe and had a hood covering her face.
"Soarin can I tell you a secret?" She said. I looked at her in a confused way. I couldn't tell what she meant as in secret.
"Ok what were you going to tell me Princess?" I asked her. In a way, I was afraid to ask.
"Well, I have legitament reason to believe that.....well Luna could be plotting against me." She said to me. I looked at her in shock. I couldn't believe this. My mother could never plot against her own sister. She just couldn't.
"How could you make such accusations Princess?" I asked her. I didn't know how she could say something like that about her sister. She looked away and had a serious face.
"Well....my guards tell me that she had been talking with Chrysalis and it troubles me that she keeps talking with her. They have been spotted near the changeling empire talking. They are forming what I believe is an alliance, and I don't like the sounds of what is going on." Celestia said to me. I couldn't believe that she was accusing her of counter intelligence acts. I looked at Celestia and I could tell she wasn't lying.
"I will look into this Princess. I will try to find out if she is working with Queen Chrysalis. Don't worry." I replied. I was scared for my mother and our Solar Alliance might collapse very soon.
