Memory in the crystal

Ride to the Crystal Empire

ThunderSword

It was a beautiful sunny day in the Crystal Empire, all was bright and we see two ponies in the dinning room one was a unicorn stallion and a pink alicorn. The stallion had a sheild and star for a cutie mark the pink alicorn had what seemed to be a heart made of crystal. There names were Shinning Armour and Princess Mi Amore Cadenza or Princess Cadence, they were having a nice breakfast and conversation about their son ThunderSword and his first Crystal  Fair festival. All of a sudden hoofsteps are heard coming down the stairs and the stallion and mare stop there discussion and turn there head to the colt standing in the door way. The unicorn colt has a white coat just like shining and a blue and violet mane. He enters the room and sits in the middle of his parents, the colt sits eating his favorite cereal Wheat Crisps. ThunderSword looks at his dad.

"May I be excused to help set up for the fair?" Said Thunder Sword wondering how the stallions in his unit handling being in the royal guard but he says nothing so he is not criticized by his dad.

"Yes" His father and mother say in unison. He finishes his breakfast quickly and goes to help set up for the fair.

Aqua Night

The train rolled into the station and came to a jostling stop. Aqua Night stood up and looked out the window and gasped, She rushed off the train and entered the Crystal Empire.

She walked around and looked at everything. Wow, she thought this is awesome! She walked around some more and right in front of her was a huge blue crystal castle! It was THE Crystal castle!

She took her camera out of her bag and took a lot of photos of it. Directly across from her was lots of crystal ponies helping set up for the fair. There, she spotted a white unicorn colt. He had blue and purple mane and he was also helping set up. Now, she had seen him in pictures but she couldn't quite place him. She knew that she'd seen him once before but she didn't know where.

She walked up to the colt.

"Hi, I'm Aqua Night" the mare said

"I'm ThunderSword" He replied "Are you here to help set up for the fair?"

"Oh um... Yes!" She hesitated before going on " What can I do to help?"

"Can you help put up these flags!" He asked

Aqua Night took the flags with out hesitation while she looked around for a good place to hang them. When she found the place after she hung them up, she looked around for the cute colt whom had givin her the flags.

When she found him she walked over to him he was talking to some crystal ponies. The colt she had met was certainly cute. Aqua night tried hard to get the colt out of her head she knew perfectly well why she was here and that was for business. Aqua Night had a business being a professional photographer. She was not going to let love get in the way of that. Aqua Night finally racked together all the courage she could get and walked up to him.

"Hi, again. What's your name?" Aqua Wish says confidently

"Hello, I'm ThunderSword" He replies back "Need help?"

"Oh, uh if you please. I'm trying to just see everything the in the Crystal Empire"  Aqua tells him

"I could give it to you in a nutshell, or if you'd like I can give you a tour" ThunderSword says looking around

"Okay. Is it okay if I help with the decorations for the crystal fair?" Aqua asks him glancing from place to place

"Sure" He replies "Here you are" He says activating his magic and levitating a bunch of flags and other things into her hooves.

Aqua Night flew up and found a nice spot to hang the flags, she races back down to where she first saw the nice stallion and asked if there was anymore she could do to help set up for the fair.

"So, are you still up for that tour tomorrow?" Thunder asked walking up next to Aqua.

"Yeah, of course! I'd love too. Thanks for doing this. The crystal empire sure is a buetiful place to be, especially in the summer!" Aqua told him. Aqua thought that the stallion was cute but she wouldn't tell him that, also they had only met that day and its not as if I like him, like him. Maybe I could have a great friendship with him though. She thought to herself.

"Well, my mom had a crystal cutie---" He stopped mid sentence.

"Is something wrong?" Aqua asked him as he stopped walking as well.

"Ignore what I just said, that was really stupid. I didn't know what I was saying for a second there.

"Okay, don't worry. I'll forget you said any of that and made yourself look stupid!" Aqua Night let out a laugh as she 'forgot' what he said.

"So, actually here is the crystal hotel. So I'll see you tomorrow I guess." ThunderSword walked her to the door and stood there for a second. They both stood there staring at each other. "Well, yeah. I'll see you tomorrow then. Um, meet me outside the crystal castle and from there I'll show you around."

"Yeah, yeah, um I'll see you tomorrow then." Aqua Night smiled a nervous smile and glanced around. "Thanks for walking me to the hotel." She added. ThunderSword walked backwards tripping over his own hooves he stumbled. Getting right back up again he looked around and rushed off.

Aqua Night closed the door to the hotel and leaned against it. She took a deep breath and sighed out. "I just need some alone time." She said to herself as she checked herself into the hotel.
