Chapter 12: Truth Part 2

I was fuming slightly this was so much to take in, Princess Celestia was a vampire. I was getting a little sick of these surprises. I jumped as Luna shouted “Why didn’t you tell me?!”

I frowned as a Celestia slumped “Because I am jealous, I have always been jealous. You get to command the night while I have to raise the sun, I have to feel my flesh burning all day. I ignored you because I didn’t understand how you could be jealous of me.”

Nightmare Moon frowned at them “So, I have an idea. I know a mare who could help you, she has the ability to control ponies special talents. Maybe she could swap them both for you” she smiled at Luna“you can get the recognition she wants” she then turned to Celestia “and you can live amongst your own kind.”

Celestia and Luna looked at her “We’re listening.”

Octavia grabbed me “Vinyl, you I believe this is getting private.”

I nodded “Okay but what do we do. The princesses and Nightmare Moon are kind of busy.”

Octavia frowned “You’re taking this better than I thought, I was expecting you to freak out.”

I deadpanned “Yes this is weird but I work with Pinkie Pie on a regular basis. If I couldn’t handle weird I would be in a mental hospital by now.”

Octavia blushed “Well, I want to introduce you to some of my friends.”

I nodded, we trotted over to ponies. My eyes widened as we got closer, Fleur’s vampire form was not what court off guard, it was the flaming orange werewolf next to her “Spitfire!”

A vampire flew over to us, I blinked “Wait you’re Sassy Saddles, you work for Rarity don’t you?”

Sassy Saddles nodded before glaring at Fleur “Clover, I can’t keep up with you!”

I blinked “Clover, wait as in Clover the Clever. But I thought you were dead!”

Fleur looked at Spitfire and Sassy who both nodded, Fleur smiled at me “Well Celestia made the six Hearthswarming Heroes vampires or werewolves. I’m Clover the Clever, Sassy Saddles is Princess Platinum and Spitfire is Private Pansy.”

Pansy grimaced “I hate that name. I got teased about it so much.”

I frowned “Where are Smart Cookie and Puddinghead?”

Platinum smiled “They are off on missions, they are the most active out the six of us except for Hurricane…” she paused “You look a lot like him now that I think about it.”

I sighed “He’s my father. My mother told me he looked at peace when he was buried.”

Octavia gave me a soft hug “It will be alright.”

Clover facehooved “It seems you don’t know much about Royal Vampires, and you should as your father was one. Not to mention you are hybrid, which while not extremely odd is something to be considered.”

Pansy nodded “Royal vampires don’t leave bodies behind when they die, if Hurricane was buried in a coffin then he is still alive.”

I sighed “Well that’s great, it means that my father has spent the last who knows how many years unconscious in a coffin. I wish I could have met him when I was a foal.”

Clover smiled “Well now is your chance, the Princesses will be busy for a while. I’m sure you can go and did up your father, he just needs a little bit of blood.”

Octavia smiled “I would love to meet your father, he is a legend amongst our race.”

I grinned “Well let’s go, I need to meet my father for the first time!” I burst into a gallop as I dashed away.

Octavia frowned as she joined me now in her earth pony guise “Aren’t you forgetting something?” I blushed as I put an illusion over myself.

It wasn’t long before we were at my family’s home, I teleported us over the grave and dissolved my disguise as we looked at the grave. I sighed as I began digging, it wasn’t long before my mother jumped out of the window with a silver blade and torch in her magic. She looked at me and shrieked “What are you doing?! That is your father’s grave!”

I scowled “He’s not dead, just unconscious.” I tossed the coffin out of the hole, and pulled it open. I cut my arm open and blood dripped into my father’s mouth.

He leapt into the air with a grin “That was a nice nap!” My mum and I were glaring at him in unison, he gulped “Did I do something wrong!”

My mum snapped “You left me alone, having to raise our daughter on my own! You have a lot of explaining to do!”

I smiled at Octavia “Come on in, and watch as we chew out my dad for the next couple of hours.” We both entered the house, this was going to be fun.
