//------------------------------// // Chapter 4.3 // Story: Clown Mare // by Flora Blossom //------------------------------// Eight o’clock in the morning. Prince Blue Dream and Rane walked to the diner room. They both sat next to each other. Had their fill and Rane went to do her work around the house. While the Prince walked with her and helped her. Prince Blue Dream remembered one thing about how Rane Shackleton got to the Mooncrest but, however, he couldn't picture who it was because it was wearing something on their head; a nice white top hat that covered their face. He went into deep thought. A few years ago. Prince Blue Dream was looking outside and noticed it was a good day with a bit of sunshine in the morning. While he looked outside the window with a good view, he noticed two ponies walking towards the house. He saw a red pegasus with a leash on with the water down her face. He then headed down stairs to see what the commotion was about. You tug on the leash and say on the poor broken wing pegasus, “Don’t worry I know a place for you. Just so you know I could have sold you to a prostitute family. At least I'm giving you a chance to live. Losing both of your wings told me that you already suffer enough pain. Knowing both of your parents are dead and all. I can’t think of a better place to put you in.” You opened your mouth with your teeth together and placed that left hoof on top of the hat and shoved it down below the eye lines. Rane spoke with a heartbeat shaken as if she was shivering her whole body, “Please let me go.”  The white unicorn with a familiar nice full trend blue suit with a red tie, you spoke to the small little and helpless little filly, “You know your parents wrote the letter before they died anyway.”  You turned your head to the right and looked down upon her, “I know it’s going to be hard for you.  But the wise pony had once said you will die as well, just not like your parents from the rockslide incident.  They both went to a unicorn gypsy and asked about the future after they knew they wrote this letter.” Rane looked up at the stranger pony, “Please I suffer at a greater loss.  My friends that I had in the clouds I could join them.” You then spoke back to her with a less cruel tone, “Welcome to your new life and trust me I’m pretty sure that you’ll like this place more.” You then knocked on the door. The Grand Duke opened the door. You then saw him with a formal suit and up tight. You then bowed and then shoved the poor pegasus in front of the Grand Duke.  He then takes her in and then you walk back to your office without a word. Grand Duke spoke to Rane as if he was so tight, “Welcome poor pegasus to the mansion of Mooncrest.” Rane spoke to Prince Blue Dream, “Are you going to be alright.” He then nodded his head up and down two times, “Dear, Rane would you...?” Rane looked at him and tilted her head to the right. He then spoke again with a more serious voice this time, “Dear Rane, would you like to go to the Grand Galloping Gala with me?”
