//------------------------------// // Prench ambassador. // Story: My Little Pony Destroyers are Magic. // by CommonDash //------------------------------// Prissy Pants. That was the name of the pony Taylor was looking at. He was from prance and there was apparently no relation to fancy pants. Unfortunately Twilight would have to have that investigated anyways. “So why were you here again mister Prissy?” Taylor asks Twilight coughs cutting off Taylor’s interrogation. “Would you like some tea?” Twilight asks “Oh, yes please.” Prissy says Spike had taken that as his excuse to leave the room before something catastrophic happens. The Prench ambassador was trying and failing to size up the filly in front of him. The her coat alone didn’t make much sense dull grey was not supposed to have a metallic hue. Her eyes held wisdom well beyond that a filly was supposed to have. Her coat was the color of old fashioned armor before Equestria had unlocked the secret to enchanting gold. And since gold could hold more enchantments then Iron it would eventually become the better armor. “Yes, well I was. I am here to see if the rumors about the daughter are true.” Prissy says stuttering. “Taylor stop scaring our guest please.” Twilight says “What but I didn’t do anything!?” Taylor responds pouting. Twilight is of course confused on what to say next before prissy interjects. “Sacrebleu! She has weaponized cuteness.” “She has, we are doomed.” Twilight says jokingly. After a bit of laughter the reason prissy was there did need to be discussed. “Right, I am here because of your rumored daughter.” Prissy says “Not because of the other rumors?” Taylor asks “Yes there is something about a super weapon?” Prissy asks “Super weapon? I mean? Do we have a super weapon in development that I should know about mom?” Taylor asks looking at Twilight “No? I don’t believe so?” Twilight says after thinking for a bit. “That is good. I have heard things about stone throwers that launch stones at the speed of sound.” Prissy says Taylor gives Twilight a glance. “Oh? That’s not a super weapon. That’s just a regular cannon. Think of it as an upgrade on your Torsion bar launch systems and mix in a bit of air cannon.” Taylor says smiling. Prissy pants slightly pales at the confirmation of the rumors before realizing that not only are the rumors true but the inventor didn’t count them as a super weapon. “Is it true you invented them?” Prissy asks “Of course! You should’ve seen the flying machine I made the other day with my friends.” Taylor says her smile glowing at this point. Years as skitter the warlord has given her the ability to unsettle people with ease. “Taylor please stop scaring Prissy Pants from Prance.” Twilight says once again. “Right sorry mom.” Taylor says trying her hardest not to laugh. Prissy had finally come to a conclusion about the genius adopted daughter of Twilight sparkle. She was a monstre. “Well, thank you for the talk princesses Twilight however I must be going.” Prissy pants says “What about your tea?” Twilight asks “It is fine.” Prissy says before leaving. “What a weird stallion.” Twilight says “Twilight check your lab. I’ll go check the private library.” Taylor says running up the stairs. “What?” Twilight asks before going down to check her lab. ================ Prissy pants meanwhile was running to the forever free forest. The operation seemed like a success. If the shadow made it out. =============== Twilight had gotten down stairs to see that several of her notes were missing. She spends several minutes to try and find out what has disappeared. Taylor arrives down stairs a bit later. “They got away, so what’s missing?” Taylor asks “Several of my notes on blackpowder were missing. I’m also missing notes on ironship building.” Twilight says “The old ones on iron ship building?” Taylor asks hopeful. “Yes? Wait they got away? Are you telling me prissy pants stole from us?” Twilight asks in shock. “Yes, he did. Where is spike?” Taylor says Twilight meanwhile starts searching the house for her dragon son. Celestia needed to be notified immediately. They would later find Spike tied up in a closet. =================== The Equestrian army was on a man hunt and the navy was stopping all out going ships it could. Luna and Celestia are at the castle of friendship. “Now Twilight I know you didn’t want guards but after this. I’m afraid it is a must. What if they had tried to assassinate you instead of just stealing?” Celestia asks Twilight is looking down at the ground sadly. “Of course Princess.” Twilight says “What did they take?” Luna asks The two princesses know this place is full of dangerous knowledge especially since Taylor added to the library. “Twilight‘s notes on blackpowder and her notes on iron ships.” Taylor says “How much damage are we looking at?” Celestia asks “The black powder is gonna hurt. Especially if they managed to produce it properly. It’s the main key to most of my weaponry. Luckily it’s also out dated and gunks most weapons requiring them to be cleaned more often.” Taylor says “And the ship building notes?” Celestia asks Taylor just starts to laugh. “They were notes I told Mom to throw out before I started to correct her on proper methods. If they produce the ships on those notes they are making a death trap.” Taylor says smiling. “So they only got a gunpowder which is worse than what we can produce. Along with a piece of information which will actively sabotage them?” Luna asks “Yep.” Taylor says Meanwhile Twilight looks horrified about the fact that Luna and Taylor are happy the Prench their ally will be hurt from her notes. “So they got something which will aid them in a ground battle yet hurt them at sea?” Celestia asks after having thought. “Yes, though if they build cannons and equip their current ships. Unless they start to advance significantly into material science then I don’t see them doing much damage to your modern ships.” Taylor says “I say we let them get away with the information and denounce them. We could also threaten to end our alliance.” Luna says Celestia nods. “Though we still have an alliance with the dragon empire.”
