//------------------------------// // Chapter 3: Peachy Pony Princesses~ // Story: Guest Star Kelduo: Justice from Afar // by The Kelduo //------------------------------// This must have been my lucky day. You see, I woke up before I even hit the ground! Good thing I never go anywhere without my parasol, because it slowed me down enough to have a nice landing. What's more, I landed in front of an amazing castle. "That was a close one," I sighed. "Where am I?" Did I mention the pair of Pegasus guards at the front doors? One of them said to me, "Miss, you are at Canterlot Castle. State your business here." I answered, "The truth is, I somehow got here after my friends and I defeated a monster and escaped the battlefield. The last thing I remember seeing was a big piece of debris." "Very well. Follow us to the princesses. They should be able to sort things out." The day kept getting more and more amazing. I was led to a massive room with two thrones, each with a unicorn/Pegasus hybrid in it. The taller one had a stunning white coat and flowing rainbow mane. The shorter one was like the taller one, but dark blue. The guards told them, "Celestia and Luna, this creature claims to have stumbled upon Canterlot after she and her friends escaped some battlefield following the defeat of a monster." "I see," said the white princess, who I supposed was Celestia. "What is your name?" I replied, "My name is Princess Peach Toadstool, but everyone calls me Peach. I hail from the Mushroom Kingdom, where I am constantly saved by the heroic plumber Mario from this mutant turtle monster known as Bowser. While he wasn't the one my friends and I defeated, he is still dangerous. I hope he can't kidnap me from here." "Don't worry, Peach, for we know a group of ponies that will stop at nothing to protect Equestria from evil." Suddenly, a cloud of green smoke flew in and turned into a scroll. Celestia read it out loud: "'Dear Princess Celestia, a strange creature just crashed in front of my castle, claiming to have landed here after he and his friends defeated a monster called Void Termina. This may seem like a coincidence, but he said that he defeated it alongside Kirby, the same Kirby that helped defeat Hyness and Queen Chrysalis. I request your advice on how to approach this. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.' Peach, do you know of this Kirby?" I smiled. "I sure do, Celestia. He's a pink ball that can copy powers by eating things. I worked with him to help defeat Void Termina. Did I hear right that he defeated Hyness and Chrysalis together?" "You most certainly did." Celestia returned the smile. She then got another scroll and wrote in it. "Dear Twilight Sparkle, I feel it would be most appropriate for those who know Kirby to regroup here at Canterlot Castle. Take the creature that crashed near your castle and bring it here. If you find any others, please bring them here as well. Sincerely, Princess Celestia." Celestia turned to me. "You should wait here until all the others who have beaten Void Termina alongside Kirby come. I will send help to find them." "Thank you Celestia. I wonder how the others are doing, or where they even are?"
