Asked a voice "Since I need my most elite men to make this peace treaty possible." Said a second choice "But you don't need us two sir." Said a third voice "Yes I do, I need all six of you!" Said the second voice "But sir you said we could get a month break." Said the first voice "Once we are done with this mission, we must help protect Equestria if we want the peace treaty, and this is an order. NOW YOU GUYS ARE DISMISSED." Said the second voice Present day in Equestria "Wake up Twilight it's the big day today." Spike exclaimed "But me and the girls didn't even ask for this." Said a sleepy Twilight "Yeah but how cool is it going to be that the princess is giving you guys your own person royal guards to command." Spike said. "No it's not since we don't want it but she insist that we have one just in case we get capture again like Tirek did." Said Twilight kinda upset with Celestia's decision. "Oh come on Twilight she's just worried." Said Spike "I understand spike but we don't have to go to Canterlot and have a big ceremony for it." Said Twilight Mean while in Canterlot Princess Celestia and Luna were eating breakfast when all of sudden a guard rushed in with a message. "Princess Celestia an urgent message from the United Safari Nation." Said the guard Princess Celestia quickly took the message from the guard and read the message. Dear Princess Celestia, I will be coming to the kingdom of Equestria for our talk on the peace treaty once again since the 20 year treaty almost up. So I will be bringing a company of my troops with me to Canterlot to protect me from any dangers. I will be in Equestria with my troops later today. From the prime president "Tia, what is the United Safari Nation?" Asked Luna. "It was the Safari Kingdom but after a revolt they changed it since its run as a democracy." Said Celestia "So then why did they sent you a letter Tia?" Asked Luna. "Since they said they want to discuss the new peace treaty for our two countries." Said Celestia "When do they want to discuss this peace treaty?" Asked Luna "Today, why Lulu?" Asked Celestia. "Since today is the day the element bears or former ones to be exact get personal guards! Tia!" Luna exclaimed "Oh shit I almost forgot about that we need to cancel that and let princess Cadance and prince Shining Armor know that we need them here right away." Said Celestia while panicking "They were already on their way for the other event." Said Luna Back with the mane 6 "Finally I can stretch my wings out and stop sitting around." Said Rainbow Dash "Ah agree with you RD." Said Applejack "but for me my legs." "Are we having a stretching party when we get to the station, Yeah party!" Shouted Pinkie Pie "Now darling why would we have a party for stretching." Said Rarity "Um I think it might be .... Fun." Said Fluttershy "Please don't encourage this behavior, since we are getting a handsome stallion that must personally guard us, isn't great." Said rarity with an excited tone. "NO ITS NOT GREAT" exclaimed Twilight "We will always have them even when we have our spa day together we will never get alone time anymore." "Oh come on Twi it's not that bad as long as I get Sorin as my." Said Rainbow Dash "Well we're here in Canterlot now." Said Twilight Mean while at the Equestria border "Sir we'll be arriving in Canterlot in a hour." Said a voice behind a door "Thank you lieutenant Azrael, Hey why don't you come in? The rest of your squad is in here." Said a voice The door open to show a griffin with silver feathers. As the griffin walked in he notice his squad mates and the Prime President of the USN in the room. The Prime President Zeus who was a male wolf with black amber fur and brown paws. Sitting across the Prime President was the commander who was wearing a cloak. Next to the commander was Sev who was a zebra with a short mane. Next to the Prime President was Litestar who was a female wolf with amber fur and white paws. Then you had speedy a mare Pegasus with a teal coat and multi-red color mane and tail, and then there the captain final but not least who was also wearing a cloak in the corner. Azrael went to stand next to the captain who was listening on the conversation that the commander and prime president were having, "So do I have your approval commander in why we are here?" Asked Zeus "Yes sir but you better allow us a month Aleve from work."said the commander "Yes, you and your squad will get their month off after the mission is done. Now with that out of the way how long as if been since you all been to Equestria?" Said Zeus Speedy was the first to answer "It's been 2 years since I been here." "Almost 3 years ago was the last time I was here." Said Sev "It's been 1yr 4months and 17 days since I went to Equestria." Said Azrael with a harsh tone. "And how about you two?" Asked Zeus The commander responded "Five long years." He said with a tone saying that it been too long. Meanwhile back in Canterlot Twilight and the gang just made it to Canterlot castle, when a guard came rushing to them. "Your highness, you need to head to the throne room with your friends right away it's urgent." Said the guard as he stop in front of Twilight. Twilight just nodded and they all followed the guard to the throne as fast as they could. When Twilight and her friends came into the throne room they saw Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadance and Prince Shining Armor all waiting for Twilight with about 20 guards. "Princess Celestia we came as fast as we could once we heard it was urgent, is there something wrong with the guards can they not make it, or did something worse happen?" Asked Twilight "Don't worry Twiliy everything is fine with the guards." Shining said trying to calm his sister "So if nothing wrong then why was it urgent we get here if the ceremony isn't for another hour." Said Rainbow Dash Luna spoke this time "Since the ceremony is cancel." "What!?" Said the mane 6 "Twilight something else came up that involves all of us here in the throne room in a hour." Said Cadance "What the thing that came up your highnesses." Asked Applejack Now princess Celestia took over the conversation "The USN Prime president Zeus is coming here to discuss a peace treaty between Equestria and the United Safari Nation." "The United Safari Nation wants to discuss a peace treaty with us but we never enter a war against them in the first place." Said Rarity "PEACE TREATY PARTY!" Pinkie Pie yelled then said "Wait why would their be a peace treaty if we are not in war, unless we secretly been in one this whole time." "No Pinkie we are not in a war and to answer your question Rarity they gave us 20 years of ... not attacking us when we had one of the nobles insult them and declared war against them because of their culture." Celestia explained "So...um...we have been at war this whole time, but I don't understand why a nation would want to give us time to prepare." Said Fluttershy "They only did it since their forces were weak at that time because a different country that they defeated with 20 to 1 odds against them. They are a powerful force and are not afraid to invade Equestria." Said Celestia "So then why do you need us then Princess Celestia?" Asked Twilight "So they can see that I do not rule Equestria all by myself." Said Celestia "since they are a democracy they don't like monarchies that much." "So you need the royal family here but what about Blueblood." Said Twilight Luna spoke "Blueblood has been traveling between the USN and Equestria so they don't want him here." "So I need you and your friends here to show we rule together." Said Celestia "Alright we'll do it" said Twilight "When will they be here?" Celestia looked out the window and saw an air blimp coming to the castle with dragons to the side of it and said "They are here now."
