Chapter 4

Looking out the window as the landscape race by Shade sighed remembering the trips he took with his family to Canterlot...........looking up he began to wonder what could be different about that city who would be different. Leaning back he rested his began to drift off to sleep when the door opened expecting Twilight or one of her friends he looked up to see...............Fluer Di Lis one of the universes greatest models grumbling he wondered if she was the same air headed fool like the one from his world. Looking around she asked "Is anypony traveling with you sir ?"

"No ma'am just me in the compartment."

"Oh do you mind if i join you ?"

"Sure my names Shade." He said offering the seat across from getting a closer look at this Fluer he could tell she was different no heavy amount of make up, no expensive clothes, and she held a air of integrity around her. Sighing she sat down "Thank you when i was going to my compartment it was surrounded by reporters so i was looking for a place to hide the one seemed quiet."

"So you walked in hoping."

"Yes i'm terribly sorry if i'm bothering you oh i haven't given my name." she said shaking her head looking back up she said "Its Fluer De Lis."

"Hows it spelled ?"

"F-l-u-e-r D-e L-i-s." She said smiling gently at him nodding Shade noted a difference names and personality his Fluer would have never given her name to a 'common' soldier sighing he asked "So Ms. De Lis what do you do ?"

"Hmmm oh well i'm a model and i help with my father from time to time."

"If you don't mind me asking who is your father and what does he do ?"

"I don't but first tell me what you do ?"

"Hmmmm sounds fare i'm a soldier."

"Well my father is Fancy Pants and he is a nobel at the moment he is pretty ill so i'm helping him with a negation."

"Sounds fun but what about modeling ?" Shade asked brushing some lint off his grey dress shirt and black tie this would prove whether or not she was like the Fluer Di Lis from his world "I like it but i rather be helping my father with his job."

"Ahhh want to try and help the world."

"hahaha no no nothing that big just want to make living easier in some areas of the country especially for the farmers of our nation."

"Yeah they do provide us with food."

"That they do.........so why are you going to the capital ?" Fluer asked leaning forward Shade hadn't notice but she was rather developed and her shirt low cut looking out the window he sighed nervously before saying "One of my friends wants to take me to Canterlot."

"Who might that-" Fluer began before being cut off by Twilight barging in "Shade we're almost to Canterlot are you ready ?" nodding Shade said "Yeah Twilight i am."

"Twilight Sparkle its been to long !" turning Twilight saw Fluer Standing up and hugging her caught off guard Twilight stuttered "Fluer w-w-w-what are you doing here !?!?"

"Father wanted me to talk to the princesses about a project so i take it Shade this is your friend ?"

"Yeah she is how do you two know each other ?"

"We were childhood friends before i moved out to Las Pegasus." she said pushing Twilight back slightly to get a look at her "So Twilight is he-"

"No i'm not she's dating a Flash Sentry.........i'm not really on the dating scene." Shade cut in looking out the window simply watching the scenery pass by nodding Fluer said "So i guess we all could go and meet them together how does that sound !"

"Its good we could catch up its been to long sense i've gotten a letter from you Fluer." Twilight said nodding smiling Fluer used a spell to teleport to her compartment sighing Twilight looked at Shade who had a slightly confused look on his face "What is it Shade ?"

"You really good friends with her !"

"Well yeah we grew up and i saw her as a sister she protected me, played games among other things before she move."

"How much older is she than you ?"

"um two year but why are you shocked and asking these questions ?" Twilight asked leaning over staring Shade in his yes looking at his feet he said "Um just curious...........plus in my dimension you two hated each other."

"Well it couldn't-"

"When she crashed your wedding the ONI you broke her leg and literally threw her out of your own wedding."

"Really why would i do that ?"

"From what i could guess she was a bully to you and stole colt friends from you through school.........well thats was spike said."

"Oh...........well here she is a good person and from what i can see you can tell that." his face turning red Shade shook his head and said "Its just hot here and we talked for a bit." smiling smugly she stood up and said "Well you have plenty of time to get to know her."

Turning she began to walk out of the compartment before she left turning she said "Oh and she said in a letter she has a soft spot soldiers.


(hour later)

Walking up to the castle Shade began to look at the guards, gate, and fence sighing at how it all felt familiar yet so alien at the same time sighing he began to follow Twilight and Fluer into the castle. Slowly following them Shades mind went back to the times that he visited it with his family the towers, garden but the favorite part was the lake that he and his father used to fish in. Stopping Shade looked outside smiling he opened the window jumping down he began to make his way to the lake to see if it was there. Walking through the hallways Twilight and Fluer were talking and telling stories about what they had been up to through the years that they were apart smiling Twilight said "Well looks like we reached the chambers time to talk to the princesses."

"Yes i'll let you talk about what you need first."

"Thank you Fluer." Twilight said pushing the doors open to show the three princesses of Equestria sitting on their respective thrones "Princesses its good to see you."

It its good to see you to my student."

"Yes well me and Shade have come to discuss his citizenship amongst other things."

"That is a good idea Twilight but where is Shade ?" Celestia asked waving her arm out to indicate that Shade was not behind her turning Twilight began to hyperventilate and with a sudden surge of magic she screamed "Shade where are you !?"

(Lake)

Shade was sitting under a oak tree with a fishing pole stuck into the ground next to him and the bobber slowly bouncing in the lake with the small wakes that were generated seemingly out of nowhere. Shade watched as the bobber went under the water quickly grabbing the pole he began to real the fish in just as he was about to pull in said fish a scream rang out over the castle "Shade where are you !?"

Looking back Shade saw the bobber completely out of the was missing the hook sighing he said "Better find a-" suddenly appearing inside the throne room he quickly changed the sentence "-a faster way to the throne room." looking around he noticed that he was getting amused looks from four out of the five mares in the room the fifth giving him a death glare that could take down a brute.

(hour and a half later)

Shade was rubbing his temples after the screaming from Twilight about how he shouldn't wonder off and how he needs to let them know if he was going to- then some stuff happened Shade tuned it out he may be a soldier but he is still a hybrid with boredom and certain abilities of how much of a boring speech he could take. Walking around the castle he heard a commotion "Come on Fluer you know that your gonna have to marry soon."

"Yes and I rather it be to somepony who care for who I am not for money or reputation Blue Blood." Fluer said walking around the corner Shade saw Fluer being pushed into a corner by Blue Blood "Listen her you little whore its either you start going out with me or I- WHOA !" Shade picked Blue Blood up by the collar of his shirt and threw him across the room landing on his back. Sitting up Blue Blood snarled "Who ever did that will rot in the dungeons."

"Really now i'll like to see you try Blue." Shade snarled back looking down at Blue Blood using a spell he learn he turned the whites of his eyes black and his irises crimson red glaring down at him "Y-y-y-your a m-m-m-monster !"

"Yes I am now you should run." Shade snarled turning back to Fluer he heard the sound of running chuckling he sighed looking at Fluer he saw a bruise on her cheek and wrist walking foreward he took out some medical supplies he still had on him smiling at her he said "Can I see those bruises ?"

"Shade the bruises are fine I don't need-"

"Yes you do Fluer they may be bruises but people with begin to ask questions and as much as I would like to see that Blue balled ass wipe be sent to the dungeons people will begin to question if he had done anything else like this in the past so i'm trying to protect the princesses............also I want to see that beautiful face of yours without that ugly bruise."

"O-okay." she said offering him her arm guiding her to a chair he began to apply the ointment looking at his face Fluer couldn't help but notice how handsome he looked blushing she turned away slightly looking at him through the corner of her eye.
