Babysitting a Princess

Prologue: The Sun’s a Rising

King Sombra is currently in his room; looking at all of the amazing decor and such with awe and amazement. Reason is because he’s vacationing in Saddle Arabia. “Okay… “ he began. “This is really nice… .” He was really enjoying the look of his room at a hotel that he was staying in for the night… . It was a weekend trip, so he wasn’t staying long. However, he wasn’t able to convince Somnambula if he could stay the night with her for the weekend when he’s on vacation there; as no one really knows where Somnambula lives in… . Like if she’s either living in an actual pyramid like a pony world pharaoh, or as a fellow villager in one of those small, yet surprisingly spacious stone carved houses. So with that, he chose the latter, and went to a hotel to check in for the weekend. “Okay… “ he said to himself. “After I unpack, I’m just gonna go shower or so… . And then I’m gonna go explore. Alright!” he said as he clapped his shadow hands together… . “Let’s do this!”

However… before he could do so… there was a knock on the door. Figuring out as to who it was, he looked at the small peephole that’s in the door, and then opened the door; seeing a grey coated pegasus with yellow mane, and wearing a postal uniform. Knowing who it is, Sombra said; “hey Derpy! What brings you here?” Without saying anything, she hoofed him a letter, and then flew off. Feeling confused, Sombra blurted; “I guess I’ll see you soon… I think… .” With that, he closed the door, opened the letter, and starts reading its contents.

Sighing, knowing who it was that sent the letter, Sombra groans and said; “you have to be kidding me… ? Now?! While I’m vacationing… ? Cmon!” After that, he takes a deep breath to calm himself down, and then says; “eh, no matter… . It’s probably nothing… . I’m sure I can handle whoever is gonna visit me at my home… . It’s fine… .”

Oh if only he knew what’s in store for him once he arrives back home in Ponyville… . Only time will tell… .
