Chapter 1
Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship, forcefully opened the door to her new home huffing angry. Inside, at the circle of crystal chairs sat AppleJack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinke Pie, Rarity and Spike who all turned their heads to see her with anger in her eyes.
"Is something wrong darling?" Rarity asked.
"No, everything is not fine!" Twilight raised her voice towards her, which made Fluttershy get behind the the others, shaking.
"Hey, no need to yell Twi." Raindow Dash getting in front of her.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to yell, I just got back from my date with Flash Sentry." Twilight calm down a little.
"Really?" The five ponies plus Spike said in unison.
"So How did it go, was he romantic, did he buy you flowers, did you two ki-" Pikie talking real fast until AJ stuff a hoof in her mouth.
"What do think, it went awful." AppleJack said to the pink pony.
"No it went horrible." Twilight corrected her.
The girls stood there in shock, They knew Flash and Twi had a crush on each other, but to hear their first date was a bust.
"What did he do? Was he mean to you? If he was then I'll clubber him." Rainbow Dash putting up her dukes and punching the air.
"No, he didn't do anything like that."
"Was he snobby like that so called Prince BlueBlood?" Rarity asked.
"No."
"Did he pretend that he likes all the stuff you like and did the 'uh-hu' thing?" Pinkie said next.
"No, none of that." Twilight getting a little frustrated.
"Then what happened?" Fluttershy suddenly asked. "That is if you want to talk about it."
"The problem was that he was acting more like my bodyguard then my date." Twilight admitted to them.
"Oooooh" they all understood now.
Twilight and Flash were walking together. "So how are you liking Ponyville Flash?" Twilight asked with a half smile.
"I'm liking it very much your highness." Flash commented. "It's a lot more peaceful then Canterlot and the Crystal Empire."
"I'm glade and please call me Twilight, no one here calls me 'princess' or 'your highness' here."
"Sorry i'm just use to being a royal guard that I'm completely use to my job."
"It's fine." She said as he pulled his hoof out in front of her, somepony approaches them. The mare was a grey Pegasus with golden eyes that was cross eyed, a saddle bag across her shoulder, with bubbles as a cutie mark.
"Who are you and what business do you have with the princess." Flash said to the Pegasus.
"I'm Derpy, I'm just passing by delivering mail." Derpy said backing up.
"Flash, stop it." Twilight pulling his hoof down. "It's fine Derpy make your deliveries."
"Thank you Twilight." She said walking past them and got farther away.
Twilight then turned to Flash with lowered eyes. "Mind explaining what that was?"
"She had that saddle bag, I thought she was hiding something in their." Flashed explained.
"Like?"
"A knife or something sharp."
"Derpy is not that type of pony or anyone here." Twilight said. "I know your a guard but your not on duty and you can relax." They continued to walk until they reached the cafe and Twilight's stomach stated to growl, that made her blush in embarrassment. "Looks like well will be having lunch here." Without another word, they sat down and the waiter took their orders, which Flash ordered for them both. Twilight was a little ticked off that she didn't even order what she wanted, but she was so hungry that she care. After minutes later as the food arrives. Flash takes a small bit of her food. "What are you doing?"
"Checking it to see it's ok." He replied as he swallowed her food. "And it taste fine."
Getting more annoyed then before, Twilight ate her food in silance, not caring what her date, or her bodyguard , thinks anymore.
After finishing their food, Twilight excused herself to use the mares room. A minute or two she was finished she saw him, Flash, right next to the bathroom door. "That's it! What are you doing standing next to the ladies room, like some perv! Your acting more like my body guard then my date. You know what, it's over!" She storms off the Cafe and heads back home leaving Flash alone.
"And that's the story." Twilight said.
Rainbow Dash was rolling on the floor laughing her heart out. While AJ and Rarity looked angry, while Fluttershy looked shocked and Pinkies jaw was down to the floor.
"I can't believe you did that Twi that was awesome." Rainbow Dash trying to breath.
"Well Sugercube, I believe you did the right thing. You don't need no stallion that is always on your back and watching you sleep."
"I agree with Applejack darling, even though I hate to admit she's right, you can't let anypony treat you like that."
"Espcially Flash Sentry, I know he's a royal guard but, he needs to give a pony space."
"I hope so." Twilight said with a frown.
"Cheer up Twilight, I'm sure the author of this will come up with something." Pinkie commented.
"What?" Twilight looking confussed.
(Dammnit Pinkie! Stop breaking the forth wall!)
As if on cue, Spike bletches out a scroll frrom Princess Celestia. He picks up the scroll and reads it aloud. "Dear Twilight, you and your friends need to come to Canterlot immeditaitely. Sincerily, Princess Celestia."
"Princess Celestia needs us, I wounder what could be so important?" Twilight running to the door. "Come on girls, we need to catch the next train to Canterlot."
The mane six plus Spike hurried out to the Twilight's castle and headed stright for Canterlot. The six of them caught the train just in time and got aboard. the trip form Ponyvillie to Canterlot took a good forthyfive minutes. Twilight and the others ran as they got off the train and headed towards the castle. The guards at the front of the castles gates hailed them, then they realized that it was Princess Twilight and her friends,and let them go though. They soon reached the throne room, where the found Princesses Celestia, Luna and even Cadance were gathered around.
"Princess, we came as soon as possiable." Twilight breathing heavily, almost out of air.
"I'm glade you came Twilight, I'm afraid I have some troubling news." Celestia spoke at once.
"Wait what is it?"
"I'm afraied it's about your brother."
"What, Shining Armor, what happened?" Twilight got a little scaired, as she notice that he was no where to be seen. Plus he is usally with Cadance but she's not with him.
"I'm sorry to say this, but he got captured by the dragon kingdon in Draspaina." Celestia informed her.
