The Prince and the Belle

by Shiny Armor


A prince's duty

everyday since that night I have been thinking about Sweetie, and how she made me the stalion that I wanted to be. No matter how much I tried, I couldnt stop thinking about her. Not even long enough to notice somepony was watching me. Although every fiber of my being was telling me to look in the trees, I was on a mission, to get to Ponyville.

"Ugh, This is so boring, why would the ladies put me on look out duty?", a young colt named Dark Ninja said keeping his eye on me from the trees. Just doing the job he was given by his mother Nightmare Moon and the queen of changlings Queen Crysalis. But despite how hungry and bored he was he persisted and did his job.

I get to Ponyville with in 3 hours, then try to find the Belle's home. So i went to the only pony who would have knowledge on everything in Povyville, aunt Twilight! After asking her where the Belle home was, I went there because I got a letter from Sweetie saying to get there. By the rushness and slopyness of the writing I figured it was urgent.

Once I knocked on the door, the next part was predictable. Sweetie answered the door and hugged me. It was obvious she was scared but I wasnt sure what about, but she took me inside and her sister Rarity sat next to me, and once I sat down sweetie got into my arms, from fear and wanting to be in a colts arms, for the feeling of being protected.

"So you are the young colt my sister has been talking about?", Rarity asked giving me a once-over, and looking un-empressed, which is normal for some mares, "well whatever my sister sees in you, we need your help"

"What with?", I asked really confused about why they would need me. Not that I cared, because I had Sweetie on my lap, which made me happy. I was still curious about why they needed me though.

"Somepony is after my sister, we found this picture on the way back from Celestia's gala", Rarity saiding hoofing me a picture of sweetie with a red X over it and the word DIE under the X, "Prince Shining Armor Jr, I need you to protect my sister, in anyway possible. I dont want to loose her"

"Do you accept Jr?", Sweetie asked me with stars in her eyes.

"Yes, I accept Rarity and Sweetie", I said nodding and putting Sweetie down

"Good! Im trusting you Jr, dont let anypony or anything hurt my sister", Rarity said in a threatening voice.

"I wont Rarity, you have my word", I said as I stood up, a task on my hooves. My mission, to protect the one I love, and I accepted, but i didnt know what I would be getting into, but I knew, it would proove to Sweetie and Rarity I could be trusted. Now its time to find out that love is worth all the trouble.
