Stretching my wings, I walked along next to Sunset, “So… thanks.”
“What was I supposed to do, leave you there?” she asked and rolled her eyes, “Amber went and got me as soon as you left the hive.”
What?
“Amber, why didn’t you do it yourself?”
She jumped down from the rafters above, landing on my other side, “…I didn’t think that seeing a changeling right then would be good, sir,” Amber admitted, “Thank you for what you did, sir, you did a great service to the hive.”
I gave her a poke with my wing, “Silly bug. If I can stand facing Queen Crysalis, why would I have a problem with a drone?”
“…Princess Skitter also thought it was better if a pony helped you.”
“Then she is also a silly bug,” I told her with a smile, “Can you tell her I’ll speak with her later?”
Amber nodded and disappeared in a buzz of wings.
“So, meeting,” I said and turned to Sunset, “What’s up?”
She shook her head, “The Sisters want to confirm the guard schedule with you and discuss some logistical matters.”
Record scratch.
“…Sisters?”
“Oh, you haven’t heard?” Sunset askes cheerfully, “That’s one of the things they want to talk to you about. They want to suggest a name for them. Sisters of Battle.”
I stared at her for a long moment, “You can not be serious!?”
She gave me an innocent look, “What?”
“There is no way that’s not your fault! I know you know where’s that from!”
That got a laugh from her, “I actually had nothing to do with it! I just find it hilarious!”
“Yeah, not happening,” I grumbled, “Guardians, they can be known as Guardians.”
Sunset bumped her side against mine, “Oh? How about… the Royal Angels?” she suggested, “They will be the tip of the spear and know no fear.”
I just stared at her for a moment, “…I can’t believe you are a forty thousand fan.”
She shrugged, “I’m not. Well, not really. But I did run into it a couple of times and there was a club at school. Never played a game or anything, but I did flip through a rulebook once or twice.”
Sighing, I shook my head, “…Not calling them Sisters of Battle. It’s just a really bad idea in general and just tempting fate.”
“So what about the Royal Angels?”
“No way, that way lies cults and flamers. I’m trying to avoid even the entire Prince thing!” I told her with a frown, “No.”
Sunny sighed and stick her tongue out at me, “Stick in the mud.”
“I’m going to have to live with it forever!”
“Hmm… Page’s Angels!”
“Maybe if there were three of them,” I grumbled and shook my head, “Did you do anything on Earth other than take in pop culture?”
Sunset shrugged a bit, “…Didn’t have any friends, so didn’t have much else to do,” she said quietly before she smiled, “Fine. Dream Guardians?”
I nodded, “Could work but like you said, bit generic. I may nix the sisters, but I think it’s only fair they get input into it.”
“Fair enough,” Sunny agreed, “So… feeling better?”
“Better,” I said, “Feel almost normal, but we should push practice up until tomorrow. Walking around is fine, but I likely shouldn’t try anything exhausting or I’ll end up on my face.”
“Can do.”
“…So how was your weekend with Sparky?”
That perked the unicorn right up, “It was great!”
“That good huh?” I asked and then smirked at her, “Where did you two put Spike?”
“Sleepover with the Cutiemark Crusaders. Some friends of his,” She said happily we went out for dinner.
“Aww, that’s adorable.”
She stuck her tongue out at me cheerfully before she smiled, “It was nice. I’m just a bit… well… long distance kind of sucks.”
“You could move you know.”
Sunset shook her head, “Wouldn’t help much,” she said, “I mean, it would be nice, but Twilight travel a lot and even when she doesn’t, she is so busy with everything.”
“Luna is also busy,” I told her, “But just being able to be there and spend time with her as she works on her papers or just being able to sleep next to her mean a lot, even if we go to bed at different times and wake up differently.”
She frowned a bit, “…That would be nice, I’ll think about it,” she said wistfully, “But Canterlot is my home. I don’t mind visiting Ponyville, but it’s so… everypony know everypony. I’m honestly not sure I could live there.”
I guess I could see that.
Feels for Sunset.
...... whaaaaaat?!
When did I miss that Ascension?
"By promethium we praise!"
*Clears throat, speaking softly*
"And cleanse that darn irking spot next to the kitchen sink."

Oops. Fixed.
Shield Maidens?
The Cavaliers?
The Dream team?
The Mares if Morpheus
The Amazons
The Nightmares (taking it back!!)
Hey! The sisters have been getting better lately!
But yeah, calling them the SoB is just asking for trouble.
Idk I like it, I might be a bit biased though
everypony KNOWS everypony
Queen CHRYSALIS, why
and STUCK her
Twilight TRAVELS a lot
to her MEANS a lot
Not sure if it's a error or what it's supposed to be
Can some one remind me who these sisters are?

It's Page's newly minted personal guard, they don't have an official name yet.
"Page's happy friend squad"

In the story's sense, Fishsticks nailed it.
In the 40k sense, In layman's terms, they're basically the female version of Space Marines.
Here's a link, in case your desire to know more has intensified.

Oh ok wait named as in not introduceed or just the guard has not been named?
9078561
How about Welcoming Party
The Pagers
The Blank guards (similar to the royal guards)
The predators (chrysalis nickname <lil PREDATOR>)
How far away is Canterlot and Ponyville in this fic?
I mean, in canon, it required an overnight train ride at one point, but also seems only minutes away by pegasus flight, so assuming Sunset's willing to abuse whatever privileges she has to requisition flying chariots, she could be traveling back-and-forth a lot more often. That's probably not ideal, but honestly, the flight between Canterlot and Ponyville looks like it takes about as long as some trips just in Canterlot or Ponyville.
when did this come out? I've been waiting for the next story than I see this in the featured page and see that I missed 6 chapters what!
No one tell Cadence about the CMC and Spike Sleepover. She will do her Duty as Princess of Love if you do... aactually. Do it. Spike CMC harem is best harem.
Should be:
Other than that, glad this story is back.
9078557
I was gonna say.
....also I ship him a Sunny so hard!
I agree wholeheartedly, Sisters of Battle arising as a name without prompt from the humans is too much of an opportunity to let pass. Promethium is good for the skin, you know? Just ask Tia!
And something tells me Luna would be all that name if she knew about the source.
For a second I thought I saw a CardfightVanguard reference then it turned out to be warhammer 40k
I ship it!
He could just take a more generic name and call them the Valkyries...and have that song as their theme too.
In the fluffy daylight of the far future, there is only pony.
Did someone say PURGING FLAME?
Sisters of Battle? Meh. Nix away, Pagey. You're not the Prince of War.
They're clearly meant to be the Dreamcatchers.
Cute changelings, cute Page, cute Sunset, cute chapter. Enough said.
Also, on the subject of naming, I'd keep it simple. "Valkyries" isn't bad as CGen mentioned, but I'd be more inclined to take a page out of real spec ops units with a very clean name like "Rangers" or pick an acronym that works really well like the Navy Sea-Air-Land (SEAL) teams.
9078561
The Synchronized. After all, they're all on the same Page.
9080289
OHHHH!
As an all female force of dream guardians, I vote Page's guard be named the Sandmares.
You mean there is something else to do on this planet?!
9080856
I second that vote!
And out of curiosity, does anypony in your story, besides Sunset and Page obviously, still thinks they aren't on a relationship with each other?

How about the (Legion/Brigade/Army) of (Dreams/Fantasies/Whimsy/Inspiration/Reverie/Imagination/Myth/Epic/Epics/Fables/Legends/Delusions) or storyweavers or something along those lines? With the ones at the top being called the Nine Muses or something? Plus, they can dabble in spying, information gathering, mercenary work, etc. like a group of kunoichis? Like the Aruki Miko/Walking Maidens? Watch GaijinGoomba's video Which Ninja? Shredder's REAL WORLD identity in TMNT!? for more information, or just look it up....

This is the RBPIG! (Royal Bureau of Page's Intelligence Guard) Rasie your hooves up and give us your illegal lieature!

Had to think on that a little. I know "our " side, wasn't sure what you were referring mlp side. Sisters Of Battle. Yeah, they would be sob's X)))

Living with immortals is difficult...
Sunset likes 40k...... fuck yeah!
FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!!!
I tense up every time I see 40k, because there is just not a more terrifyingly fanatical fandom.
11149508
I love 40k and love to read the lore but I admit I also fear many of the other people in this Fandom. You say one thing wrong jokingly and suddenly you get a whole lecture about the lore explaining why you are wrong
now you just need a golden throne, im sure Celestia will lend you hers
Chrysalis
Interesting chapter, maybe 'The Blank Legion'
Other than that... I got nothing
