//------------------------------// // Ch 1 // Story: Queen Fluttershy's Kingdom 6 // by Polaris Solarmoon //------------------------------// It's a beautiful day in Ponyville, ponies are going about their business and fillies and colts are playing games and or studying for school,In the skys above Gilda the Griffin was flying from her hometown after hearing the news about a new Queen that had been crowned in Canterlot, in disbelief she makes her way to go and find an old friend... On a cloud up above pony we'll find Rainbow Dash resting after another day of training her speed. It wouldn't be long until her rest is interrupted. "Oi Rainbow wake up!" Gilda says after eventually finding Rainbow's cloud. "Gah!" Rainbow says in shocks as she's rudely awakened "Hey what gives!" She yells. "What gives is that there's some new pony queen yeah!?, When did that even happen? Eh Rainbow?" Gilda says right back . "Oh Gilda? yeah my bestie Fluttershy became the Queen of Equestria, me I just help her if she needs it." Rainbow says nonchalantly. Hearing this Gilda would just laugh out loud and says "Wow good one Dash , Butterfly a Queen hah I think she's better off flutterin' around bein' all wimpy and stuff heh." "What!?, It true I'm not lying go look for yourself!" Rainbow said angrily before flying off to cool off . "Sheesh fine I'll go look. " Gilda says to herself before flying off in the direction of Canterlot. Two hours, two long hours is what it took Gilda to reach Canterlot, she then lands completely winded from the long flight, she then decided to go find a place to both rest and get some grub. On her search for a place to rest for a bit she'd pass by many ponies and changelings, some working others playing... Gilda would suddenly stop in her tracks and do a double take. "Wait changelings? What are those bugs doing here?" She asks herself. "Meh too tired to care." she shrugs off her initial confusion and continues to look for a place to rest for a while. Eventually she would accidentally find herself in front of the castle itself, she would shrug and ignore it, not before bumping into a odd hooded pony. "Hey watch it!" She yells at the pony not realizing who it is. "Oh hello there, sorry about bumping into you." The hooded pony says in a whisper like voice. "Who the hey are you huh!?" Gilda said,clearly upset at the pony. The pony then removed her hood revealing that it was Fluttershy herself. "Oh sorry, I'm still getting used to all the attention being Queen of Equestria and all. " Fluttershy says in a calm manner. Gilda would do a double take then immediately faints apon hearing the news that she read was real. "Oh my" was Fluttershy's only response. About thirty minutes had passed when Gilda finally came to, she finds herself within Canterlot castle with no clue how'd she got there. "Mare what a crazy dream that was." she'd say to herself. It wouldn't be long until a nurse changeling would walk into the room. "Oh you're awake, good her highness wishes to see you." It would say, outright confirming that no, Gilda wasn't dreaming at all, she'd find herself in the castle's infirmary resting on a bed. "Ugh fine." Gilda says after getting up from the bed she was on. The changeling would roll it's eyes then take Gilda to see Queen Fluttershy. On the way Gilda would notice former princess Celestia currently cleaning the hallway as they passed by, in all honesty this was Gilda's first time actually being in the castle so she couldn't help but look around. Some time later the changeling would lead Gilda over to the entrance of the throne room. "The Queen is expecting you, do show some respect." The changeling says. Gilda would roll her eyes at the changeling and would then walk into the throne room. What she sees was clear confirmation that she definitely not dreaming, the same shy little pegasus who she bumped into in front of Canterlot castle is now sitting on the throne petting her bunny friend. That very pegasus she knew as Fluttershy. Gilda would shake off her stunned state and would fly up in Fluttershy's face in anger then yell "Who in the right mind made you Queen in the first place huh butterfly or whatever your name was!" Queen Fluttershy would calmly place a hoof on Glida's beak and would push her off, she then takes a deep breath before telling her story... In one really quick and long breath... "Well from what I remember, I had accidentally took over all Equestria while I got drunk from Applejack's hard cider, I originally didn't want any at first but twilight who was drunk herself at the time gave me some. After that the rest ended up as a blank. Next thing I knew when I had came to, I was in the throne room with Celestia , Luna, Miss Cadance and Chrysalis, I think it was Luna who had said After all, we'd do anything for the new ruler of all Equestria., after that i was then made Queen even though i felt guilty at first. I hope that explains enough. So please move away from in front of me, if you don't mind." Queen Fluttershy would then smile gently while Gilda's mouth was wide open. "Holy er whomever you ponies call god. " Gilda says after shaking off her shock again. She would then get off of Fluttershy then say " So what? Do I start calling you your highness like the rest of these ponies? " "Um well you don't have to if you don't want to, but please do visit again if you have time. I really enjoyed your company for today since everyone is so busy." Fluttershy would say before smiling again. "Meh sure got nothing better to I guess, well uh see ya then." Gilda would say before leaving. From this day on Gilda would show more respect towards our dear Queen Fluttershy...
