//------------------------------// // A new day for a meeting with the sun (Edited) // Story: A wolf's Fairy Tail // by NightFlower //------------------------------// ~Rarity's P.O.V~ A sweet and deliciously delightful scent flowed upon the air waking me, a certain marshmallow white mare, from her beauty sleep. Sitting up, the said mare opened her eyes, glancing around, finding that she was alone. Moments later, she heard giggling and laughing from down stairs. Getting up, she decided to get ready for the day with a warm shower. 'Oh my, what is that enchanting scent?’ The thought ran in her mind as she undressed. Upon being fully unclothed, she twisted the knob of her shower to fit her liking in terms of temperatures, only to get walked in on. "Hey, lil sis’, breakfast is ready," Shade stated as he walked in on Rarity whom, in fact, nearly had a heart attack. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING WALKING IN ON…?” Rarity began shouting, soon being interrupted by her eldest brother. "I happen to be walking in on my little sister whom I remember running around completely nude as a child. I dressed you up and gave you baths." He leaned on the left edge of the door-frame, watching her attempt to cover herself up. "Oh, and don't forget to get the spot behind your ears." Shade walked out of Rarity’s bathroom, and back down the stairs. Rarity gave a simple flustered sigh, only to get in the shower and relax as the hot water caressed her skin, flowing down her slim and curved body. The water flattened her mane so that it stuck to her back. The water glided downwards, flowing through her 42C sized breast, while the water smoothed out her tail and washed over her perfectly plump flank. ~In the kitchen~ Shade walked into the kitchen, finding a unicorn filly that started to panic. Quickly, he walked over to her and started calming her. "Relax, remember what I taught you; Roll then flip the omelet onto the other side," he spoke calmly to Sweetie Belle, allowing her to do what she was told. Outside of the household, Twilight Sparkle knocked on the door. Hearing the knock, Shade opened the door. "Hello?" "Rarity’s in the shower," Shade replied, walking back to his original spot in the kitchen. Twilight walked into the kitchen. She noticed a mouthwatering aroma in the air. "What are you cooking, Shade?" Twilight sniffed the air, the pleasant aroma entering her nose. "I’m not cooking anything. Sweetie Belle is cooking a homemade recipe of mine. She has some Cinnamon rolls in the oven. I only taught her how to cook properly." "Oh, well - I guess you get some good news today, Shade. Princess Celestia will be coming to Ponyville today. She’s announcing the opening of a new filly-park and renovations for the Ponyville orphanage!" Twilight plopped herself down on a nearby chair. "Cool, so - when do I meet Celestia? I need to give her this letter from my ambassador friend in Prance." Shade tilted his head to the left. "Um, at 12 I guess?" Rarity walked into the kitchen, fully dressed and sparkling clean. Upon her presence being noticed, she walked over to directly look at her older brother. "Before you ask; Yes, Rarity, those are my homemade cinnamon rolls. Let’s eat the omelets Sweetie belle made. Before you say anything - I helped her cook." Shade sat on the opposite end of the table of Twilight. Rarity sat at the table next to Sweetie Belle. The three were about to enjoy their meal, but was soon interrupted when a familiar tall purple dragon walked in. "Morning Rari…” Spike started. “Oh, wow, that smells good," complimented Spike. “What is that smell?” "Why, it’s Wolf Shade’s recipe. Sweetie Belle cooked the omelets. Shade assisted her, of course. Oh, how could I forget? You two haven’t met, have you? Spike, this is my eldest brother - Wolf Shade. Shade, this handsome drake is Spike. If you’re wondering, he’s only sixteen in dragon years.” "Hello, uh, Shade. I'm Spike, Twilight's number one assistant." Spike offered a grin. "Let's not forget the fact that you’re dating my sister." Shade let an amused smirk form on his face. "H-How did you know that?" Spike’s eyes widened for a brief moment. Shade, on the other hand, broke down laughing hysterically which confused everyone immensely. Shade was quickly joined by Sweetie after seeing the expressions on everyone's face. The laughing lasted about an hour or two until both of the hysteric laughers ended up gasping for air like crazy which last for three minutes. Sitting up Shade finally decided to answer the drake’s question. "I don’t. You just confirmed it for me, Spike. Also, I know your age already; I know an infant drake can stay in its egg for at least two or three years. From what I can see, you're actually only what - a year if not two younger than Twilight, correct?" Spike's jaw practically dropped down to the floor as he turned his head to look at Rarity. Spike found that Rarity was completely stunned at the new information. Twilight Sparkle she was absolutely giddy about what she just heard. “I’ll take that as a yes.” Shade smirked once again. Shade looked to the clock to see he still had, at maximum, one hour and thirty minutes until Princess Celestia’s arrival. Shade stood up, pushing the dining chair into the table. As he was about to leave, Sweetie Belle decided to jump onto his back. Shade chuckled at her actions. "So, where to first, Sweets?" Shade carried the filly out the front door. The light bulbs lit up, and Shade got an amazing idea. "Wait, don't answer that. I know where to head first. Hold on tight." Sweetie belle did what she was told to as her 'ride' suddenly dashed off. Sweetie Belle started to squeal in delight as they darted through town, stopping at her school. Sweetie didn't care though, she was too busy giggling. She finally noticed that Shade carried her inside her classroom. Everyone stared at her, considering that it's a school day. "Um excuse me but my I ask why you interrupted my class?" The teacher asked. "Yep you're making this subject boring. Math can be fun if you know how to make it but that’s off topic. I am here to get the addresses of two brats named Diamond tiara and Silver spoon. Oh and I am here for Applebloom and Scootaloo so they can join Sweetie belle and myself until my meeting with princess Celestia at twelve today. Don't worry Miss Cheerilee Sweets here told me about you." "Um okay but you're not a parent or guardian of Sweetie belle are you?" Asked Miss Cheerilee. "I'm Wolf shade and I am both Sweetie's and Rarity's older brother so yes I am considered her guardian until she is with our parents. Oh and by the way I read your diary Sweets." Which earned him a smack on the head and a scowl from her. "Okay um but you need permission to take Applebloom and Scootaloo as well." Miss Cheerilee replied. "Oh I did. I just need to make sure their homework is done before they can have their little sleep over which I believe I get the pleasure to take care of this time so I get more time to get to know my youngest sister." Shade stated earning a hug for his baby sister. "Oh um okay but why the addresses as well?" "I need to have a chat with them about something." Shade replied dryly. Giving a nod Cheerilee gave him the addresses and the fillies with homework as well and they were off to the first and closest address which was Silver spoons. Upon arrival they were greeting by a really big stallion dressed as if he was a hitman. Shade put Sweetie belle and just kept walking until the big stallion stepped in front him the group. "Oi what’s yer business with my boss." Stated the stranger stated. The way he spoke though get the girls to start giggling which I saw as cute. "What's so funny eh?" He asked. "You sound funny!" Scootaloo stated. Her statement pissed him off as he stepped towards her and swung at her. Scootaloo closed her eyes and waiting for the strike but it never came. She opened her eyes only to see Shade holding his hand in place. But what scared her was his expression. Shade was PISSED!!! "You did not just swing at a child in front of me!" "You better move or I'll move you mys-" The most likely bodyguard of the place was stopped mid-sentence by a pebble to the head by Sweetie belle's. Shade notice the dude looking to his sister which just made him snap. The stallion went to charge Sweetie only to find a fist to his face as he was sent flying through the front gate of the property. "Aiming for my family is a death sentence." Shade stated as the stallion got up. "Hahahaha I Steel fist eats shrimps like you for breakfast." Now before Steel fist could even get ready Shade was already in front of him and windmill kicked him in the face sending him flying. Shade launched himself passed the stallion only to stop the flying stallion a backflip kick into the stallion making Steel fist hit the ground. Upon impact with the ground Steel found himself in a small crater before falling unconscious. "That was AWESOME!!!!!" Scootaloo shouting making Shade flinch. "Um let’s not tell this to anyone okay girls this is our little secret." Shade said and with great relief they nodded exciting only for an unlikely voice to sound from behind him. "Then I won't speak of this matter either." Quickly turning he was greeted with the most unlikely of ponies. Princess of the sun herself, Celestia! But that didn't matter because one thing was on his mind. 'Is she an angel?' The three fillies and Celestia herself started giggling which snapped him back into reality. Which is when the whole scene snapped into his head. Shade fell onto his back with only one word coming out of his mouth. "Shit" was all he could say at this point. "Hello to you to Mr. Shade." Celestia greeted. "Just Shade princess." “Then you can call me Celestia. I must say that was both impressive and scary, what I just witnessed that is anyways I was told you had a letter for me?” “Yeah nope that was a lie although the ambassador of Prance gives his regards. I only said that to get a chance to meet you secluded and only although three fillies are with me I guess that doesn’t matter.” “Oh? So you just lied about being involved in political matters only to meet me privately?” Shade only nodded in response which earned him a smile and a giggle from Celestia. Shade smiled to that only to continue the conversation. “So I’m not in a lot of trouble right?” “Yes you are but seeing as to what you are capable of I think an arrangement can be made.” Celestia replied. “Oh um what is this arrangement of yours?” Shade asked. “Oh it’s quite simple you just become my personal guard and you’ll no longer be in trouble. Besides it will give Rarity and Sweetie belle a reason to come up to the castle more often which will also give my student a reason to come visit as well.” Celestia stated. “Wait so I get a job offer and all I have to do to not be in trouble is accepting it?” Shade asked. Celestia nodded only to get a strange look from shade. “I will accept your offer only on two conditions ONE, I get to wear what makes me feel comfortable and Two, I get some things custom made to my own design for self-defense or combat use only. Oh and for how I look.” Shade stated “Hm I will accept the second one but how about a compromise on the first?” She asked. “Deal! We can talk more about it later.” Shade replied. “Good now um why are you here with three fillies?” She asked “Crap! I almost forgot. I came here to talk to the parents of a filly named Silver spoon for bullying my baby sister Sweetie belle and her friends then I was going to speak with a Filthy Rich about the same thing.” Shade explained “Then I shall accompany you.” Celestia stated as the fillies started chasing after her. Shade stood up and started staring at her perfectly toned flank only to snap out of it and hurried after the mare and fillies. ~At town hall after the public announcements~ “How is it that you suddenly have a job as Princess Celestia’s personal guard?” Rarity asked. “Sorry sis but that’s a secret between me and Celestia.” Shade replied. “Prince Celestia and I” Twilight corrected. “Exactly!” Shade exclaimed. “Come alone Shade you start your job tomorrow so we have much to discuss on our way to the castle.” Celestia stated. “Yeah I’m coming. Well don’t forget to come and visit kay sis. Oh and bring Sweetie too. Sorry I can’t stay for your little sleep over or whatever it is Sweetie.” Shade said. “It’s okay but no getting in trouble with your new job.” Sweetie demanded. With a nod Shade gave his sisters a hug then caught up to Celestia as she got onto her carriage. Joining her the two began talking as they left for the Castle.
