//------------------------------// // Season 0: Episode 3 - The Brave Prince // Story: My Little Pony: When Friendship Shimmers - Reboot // by RobtheMorpherPony //------------------------------// Previously, the two bullies had ambused Twilight Sparkle at night in an attempt to beat her up and make her drop out of Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. However, a mysterious new creature as arose on the scene, sporting a black body with yellow rings that glow in the dark. This creature introduced himself quite clearly: Prince Throsten of Starview Fields. And now, the continuation... The two bullies groaned and were collapsed in front of Princess Celestia, Sunset Shimmer, Twilight Sparkle, Sunset's Mother Stellar Flare, Night Light, Twilight Velvet, and the parents of the two buillies as Prince Throsten stood before them all. "Prince Throsten. Didn't think you were in our neck of the woods." Princess Celestia said. "I was in the area, looking around the neighborhood. Equestria is just south of the Frozen North which itself is south of Icicle Vally after all." Prince Throsten said. "If I'm going to be a good king someday, then I got to know the allies of the various Eeveelution kingdoms." He added. "Your kingdom still considers us an ally after...you know..." Celestia noted. "My father understands completly the circumstances and doesn't hold it against you. None of my kingdom does." Prince Throsten said. "I must be heading back though. I've got a bravery test to endure if I want my sweet Glacia's heart." He added and then left; though no one saw him leave via the doors. "Who was that, Princess?" Sunset asked. "That was Prince Throsten, the current heir to the crown from one of the nine Eeveelution kingdoms known as Starview Fields. From what I understand, when he was just an Eevee, he fled his home in an attempt to become brave. When he came back, he had become an Umbreon and many who knew him before he returned said it was almost like talking to a different 'mon altogether." Celestia said. "I never thought he'd be around down here in Equestria though." She added. "You've GOT to tell me the names of all the other royals from those kingdoms once we're done here. Twilight too." Sunset said. "Yes. I suppose that would be best." Celestia said. "Now as for you two..." She added. The two bullies gulped. Sometime later, the two bullies could be seen mopping the floors of the castle, groaning as they do so. "Wow. Not only are they now forced to take the late test and get at least 90% of the answers right if they want to stay in the school, but in the meantime, they are being forced to mop the floors?" Sunset asked. "Wow, remind me not to piss you off, Princess." She added. "Sunset, language! Twilight is right here you know." Celestia said. "Buck if I care if she's here. Besides, I want to hear about those other Eeveelution Kingdoms." Sunset said. "Yeah. I wouldn't mind the full details." Twilight said. Celestia sighed in defeat. Dear faust, I do hope Twilight doesn't pick up Sunset's bad langauge. Celestia thought to herself. "Well where to start? Starview Fields is home to the Umbreon, then you have Icicle Mountain to the north of the Frozen North that Throsten Mentioned; it's home to the Glaceon. From there you have--" She was saying when suddenly an earthquake struck. "WHAT ON EQUES?!" The white alicorn exclaimed. "Princess, there's something strange happening near Mt. Morter. Our scouts are reading strange volcanic activity." Shining Armor said as he came up to the group. A pegasus guard suddenly whispered in his ear. "...WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S SPIRIT DRAGONS COMING OUT FROM THE TOP OF THAT VOLCANO? AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN PRINCE THROSTEN WAS SEEN WITH SOME SORT OF GOLDEN ARMOR ON?!" Shining Armor exclaimed. A day passed from there, and an urgant meeting from Prince Throsten who was now King Throsten was scheduled. "So, funny story: Turns out I'm a decendent from the legendary Eeveelution hero who long ago sealed the spirits of those dragons up in that volcano. And I managed to get rid of them for real this time." King Throsten said. "...And just to top things off, not only am I now going to be marrying Glacia as a result of stopping the 'mon who summoned those dragon spirits, but I'm also going to be marrying princesses from the other eight kingdoms thus forming a harem, but the nine areas at the base of Eevee Mountain will no longer be their own kingdoms. I'll basically be in charge of everything." He added. "Aren't you nervious? Like at all?" Sunset asked. "Why would I be?" King Throsten asked. "Well, it's just; you're not scared?" Twilight asked. "Nah. Compared to dealing with a crystal that turns your worst fears into physical projections, a psychotic killer who makes even Lord Tirek look tame, and various other baddies; running nine different lands as the ultimate king is going to be a piece of cake by comparison. Seriously, running nine lands as the ultimate king has got nothing on that psychotic killer I mentioned. And that's not counting everything before that crystal." King Throsten said. "...Wow. Princess Celestia was right: It's like you became an entirely different person while you were away." Sunset said. "Well anyways, there's going to be a party happening after my coronation. I'll check in on you often." King Throsten said and then left. "...Well...that happened." Celestia said. "Tell me about it." Twilight said. "...So about those lands King Throsten is in charge of..." Celestia began again. And thus, she listed off the nine lands Throsten became the grand king of: Scourching Desert, Ribbon Prairie, Sunlit Hills, Nuclear Wastes, Lush Jungle, Starview Fields, Icicle Vally, Oceanside Beach, and Thunder Plains.
