> Nephew versus Aunt > by JusSonic > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nephew versus Aunt The scene opens up towards what looks like the outskirts of Canterlot Castle as it was a dark and stormy weather brewing in. And as the rain began to pour, lightning flash as we see two ponies opposite of the other, looking like they stand oppose to another in challenging them. As lightning flash from the loud thunder, we see it was none other than Princess Celestia and the other was Prince Blueblood. Both aunt and nephew showed strict stern expressions, which seem to show something was going on in this little ’squabble’ between family. “Blueblood, you are to deceased this course of action, at once.” Celestia sternly scolds her nephew for this abnormal behavior. “No can do, Aunty Celestia. I’ve made up my mind.” Blueblood sternly stated with a harsh tone. “I’m fed up with the mocking and insults of being weak like you!” He stated what he was tired of, it has to stop. “Nephew, those are only those that are too blind to see what’s before them than actually be apart of it.” Celestia tries to reason her nephew to look pass what others only see than do or know what happens. “Shut up! I’m the one suffering as being as weak as you are! There are talks behind my back, everyone thinks I’m not strong, I’m weaker than you are to even run this kingdom.” Blueblood yelled at his aunt to silence her as he was fed up with always being talk about behind his back. “Today, I’ve made my decision and I decided to kill the one who is giving my reputation a bad name.” He stated in what he was gonna do here from now on. “Killing those that ruin you won’t make me happy Blueblood; it will only spread out more rumors.” Celestia objects this with a stern face, killing to silence awful gossip won’t settle anything. “That’s just it, I wasn’t talking about killing those gossip spreaders.” Blueblood pointed out that he had a different idea in mind. “Then who is it you wish to kill to end this?” Celestia raised an eyebrow in what it was her nephew was going for. “It’s you, Aunt Celestia.” Blueblood spoke with a cold stare at the Alicorn princess without batting an eye. Loud flash of thunder and lightning boom sounds went off as a real shocker was announced; Blueblood intents to kill Celestia, the nephew murdering his aunt, it sounded crazy to believe. “It’s made sense now. Everyone says I’m weak like you, but…if I was to end you…they see things different.” Blueblood stated with a cold expression in what he would do here to change everyone’s minds. “Don’t do this nephew, going down such a path will not settle anything.” Celestia protests to reason against such blind hated ambitions. “It has to be, or are you as they say…Weak? Because I’m not weak enough to NOT finish you off,” Blueblood snapped off to say in fury that he will cross the line to end what is making him miserable. “If words cannot get you to see reason, then I’m afraid…Action, will be my course.” Celestia spoke in lowering her head with sadness, before repaving it with sheer determination. Then without another delay, lightning flashes and thunder booms are heard all around as it was but the signal to begin an Aunt VS. Nephew debate unlike anything before and it is…to the DEATH! Celestia quickly fire bolts but Blueblood kept on knocking them away, then teleports in, hitting his aunt in the gut. The Alicorn gasps as she fell to the ground. Celestia got up as her mad nephew fires off familiar spells in an attempt to finish her off. "The Forbidden Curses." Celestia mumbles as she flew around, dodging them. "I've made a deal with the Dark Mystic Ponies! They agree to leave us alone in exchange for your demise!" Blueblood exclaims madly. "But they are trying to exterminate us." "Not their allies." Celestia knew that she must end this fight. Blueblood is getting out of control. She flew up and then flew a spell. At first, it seems to paralyze the traitorous nephew...but unfortunately, Blueblood teleports near his aunt. Startled, Celestia didn't have time to react as he madly uses a spell on her wings. Celestia screams as her wings are ripped out, sending her to the ground. She groans, but didn't have to recover as Blueblood lands, hitting her various times with his hooves then cutting her mane and tail off with her mad. The Goddess of the Sun groans, barely moving. "And now, Auntie Tia...it's over." Blueblood said with a mad look on his face. "Equestria will have a new ruler and the mockery on me is now over!!!" “I am sorry…Blueblood.” Celestia’s voice spoke off with her eyes shut as what shall happen to her and to her nephew once this course has played out it’s final act. Then a loud clash of lightning spark over the scene with a crack of thunder as the killing intent blow was done to the fallen pony. As we zoom away from the shadowy figures of what happens to see the craziness of what has transpired in the death of one of the royals by a fellow family member. ------------ “Noooooooaaaah; Hugh-hugh-hugh….” Celestia is seen screaming and panting while sweating up a storm with a terrified look of fear in her eyes. “Tia, what’s the matter?” Luna suddenly came in to see with worry that something was up. We take a gander moment to see Celestia was in her bedchamber as she looked to have a horrible expression on her face, like something scared her half to death. A few minutes later, some of the castle servants came in, and guess who else…Blueblood as well! Everyone was near the princess of the sun’s bedside. Celestia took a moment to see that outside her balcony, it was dark, the raging storm was still happening, and her mind slowly began to calm down a bit from taking her breathing more slowly. “Princess, is something wrong?” A butler asked in worry in hearing the scream. “Were you attacked?” One maid asked her princess of fearing such a thing. “Is there a stalker?” A second maid asked if someone was after Celestia. “No, no…I am fine…I just…” Celestia pants a bit to calm down to calm the others, “Had a terrible dream.” She held her forehead to wipe away the sweat she was making. “More likely a nightmare,” Luna stated with a stern tone of what her sister must have had. “What did you see that scared you so much?” She asked in wanting to know the answer. “It was….it was…a dream where I tried to kill someone of my family that wanted me dead.” Celestia stated in holding her covers in trying to find words to what she saw. "But that someone end up killing me instead..." “Who Aunty Celestia?” Blueblood asked in curiosity of what scared his aunt. “It was…you and me, Blueblood.” Celestia spoke this which made everyone feel shock to hear that; Blueblood and her wanted to kill another. “You were fed up with the mockery and insults of being called weak like me, that you wanted to kill me to prove you were nothing like me.” She spoke to look away as if sadden by the very thought itself. "You even made a deal with the Dark Mystic Ponies, overpowering me." “That’s absurd! Aunty, I would…I would never do that!” Blueblood protest to say in shock, he never do something that horrible. “Thou speak true, but perhaps…this is not about you of the present, but more of you of the past.” Luna reminds her nephew of his snotty ways of the past and how it may relate to now. “Oh…right. My old….jerky self,” Blueblood slowly spoke in getting the picture now. “I guess it would be scary to see.” He said in seeing that if he didn’t learn his lesson to be forgiven by Rarity, this might have happened if at all possible. “But ever since my lesson, I’ve tried to be better, even with my own Mystic Guardian to help teach me.” He spoke to remind the two that he’s a different prince now; he’s not a jerk no more. “Princess, can we get you anything?” A servant maid asked in wanting to be of assistance. “No, it’s alright. I’m fine now.” Celestia spoke to hold up a hoof to say this. “I’m sorry for waking you all.” She apologized since her scream woke her palace servants. “It’s no problem, we are here to serve.” A butler bows down in wanting to let the princess know this. “Thank you, you can all head back now.” Celestia nods off to say this in giving the order. The servants bow in respect before taking their leave of the bed chamber. Blueblood was the last to be walking away until… “Blueblood….” Celestia’s voice stops the stallion from going. “Yes…Aunty Celestia?” Blueblood looks back in wondering what his aunt wanted. “I’m glad you feel about our family that you never resort to killing any of us. I much rather we live happy together.” Celestia showed a grateful smile on her face, happy that her nephew is not wanting to kill her and is far better now than he was of the past. “Thank you and please feel better from that horrid nightmare. Goodnight Aunt Celestia & Aunt Luna,” Blueblood replied back to say before slowly taking his leave now. Once Blueblood left the room to shut the door, only Celestia & Luna were left. It was now time to see what sister chat they would have over the nightmare issue. Especially when it comes to speaking in private without anyone else ears dropping. “I told you finishing off that near expired cake in the fridge on this stormy night was a bad idea.” Luna scolds her older sister for taking something that would give her nightmares. “Perhaps, but…the dream almost felt like it was another side to us.” Celestia spoke in being uncertain while other things were on her mind about that dream. “Do you think it’s something similar to when Lorcan warn us of a dream he saw of us casting a love spell for our same gender? As well as seeing a world Twilight Dream Up to see his opposite killed too soon?” Luna raised an eyebrow in thinking the dream Celly had was something similar to what Lorcan told them they ‘could’ have done, but that was false…or at least, not happening in their world. “Perhaps, it’s best we leave the subject for now. It’s late and I must be ready to rise up the sun.” Celestia responded to say that they discuss this another time from seeing how late it is. “Sleep well sister, and do not worry. If anymore bad dreams occur, I shall help out.” Luna responded to say in wishing goodnight to her sister. “That would be nice Luna, thank you.” Celestia replied back to the kind offer Luna would do for her. Soon Luna leaves Celestia’s bed chamber out the same shut doors before magically shutting it. Celestia watches the storm continue off her balcony before a yawn escaped and she gets back into her position to sleep off the nightmare she had. Hopefully, what she dreamt up will not come to fruition of where she and Blueblood fight to the death. For her, she much rather have a living nephew who has learn his lesson than a dead one, as well as one who isn't working with the enemy. As everything fades away from this horrible ordeal the poor princess of the sun has suffered…lets wish her ’sweet dreams’ to hope they help…. The End
