Love of a Prince and a Princess.

Chapter 2


In the everfree forest, near the royal pony sisters castle




Nightshade had followed through of what she said, trailed her second in command into the forest and found out he did visit his parents grave, she even after he left paid them blessings, but now she seen he didn't just leave the forest yet, he's heading for the princesses old castle. 'Now why is my second in command coming here, abyss you better not be doing what I think your doing.' She Thought while now keeping the ideas her second in command is ether doing this on his own to meditate because he used to do it in the barracks or he's part of some cult that wants to overthrow the princesses and bring back Nightmare Moon.



Nightshade continued her silent trailing of Enteral Abyss to the castle but once she seen him land there she did also, but she took up a position so she can watch what he will do and/or who he meets.





Inside the pony sisters throne room


Enteral Abyss trotted back into the throne room again for his next lesson from his father/mentor. He had a general idea of what he will be learning today and that's the races of each thestral and the pureblood. Abyss tried to continue thinking about that but he let it slip off when he saw Shadow. "Hello again father, I am ready for my lesson today, and If I am right its about the races of the thestral's?" He asked while looking at the same person in pitch black armor and cape.


Shadow turned from what he was doing to look at his adopted son before giving smiling under the helmet he always wore. "Ah Abyss welcome back and yes we are doing that lesson, heh your getting more smarter everyday and it shows. I think with this pace you will be ready to be the prince in no time." He said before walking to Enteral so he can begin, while Abyss took the disguise off to show a alicorn-like thestral.


Off to the side, Nightshade was shocked and surprised to see that her second in command was just like her, she even thought that he also killed his parents just like she did in a bloodlust crazed frenzy, she was also the same when he said prince. 'Is he really gonna try to take over? If so why choose a prince if he can just say he is going to be king, this doesn't make sense.' She thought but continued to watch the two.


"Now Abyss, as you may already know but there is three type's of thestral's, that is the earth-thestral's, the Pegasus-thestral's and the unicorn-thestrals. They all have different Abilities that are similar to ponies, but they are always physically stronger then the ponies." He said before slightly raising his head a little. "Now Abyss I want you to tell me how they are different from each other." Shadow said.


Enteral Abyss nodded his head before clearing his throat so he can speak clearly. "The Earth-thestral's are just plain earth ponies but with bat-like appearances, but they have the same hearing and eye-sight like other thestrals do, they are also physically stronger than them, also some are more stubborn then most but they will help no matter what. The Pegasus-thestrals are just like the Pegasus like my Captain, she is a full example of one. They can control the weather like normal Pegasus but like the last, better eye-sight and hearing. And the last is the unicorn-thestrals, they are like the ponies unicorns but like the rest I have said, better hearing and eye-sight, but all three of them are physically stronger." Abyss said before taking a lil break to think of what he knew about purebloods.


"Purebloods are entirely different because they are the thestral's Alicorn, although the ponies alicorns don't need to feed on blood every month, they have all three abilities of the thestral's tribes but they also have access to a special magic that allows them to make there own weapons and armor, even use them for good stealth missions. The Purebloods are also royalty if they are tutored and trained enou-." Abyss got trailed off when he saw his father/mentor looking over to a broken window. "Did you see something mentor?" Abyss asked as he wouldn't mind if there lesson was interrupted.


Shadow looked back at his student before looking back over to the window. "No I didn't see anything but I felt it." He said which caused a puzzled look from Abyss but from the window Nightshade was almost having a panic attack because somehow he knew she was there. "I am sorry Enteral abyss but we must cut our lesson short because we have a eavesdropper." Shadow said as he began to walk over to the window. "I know your there child, I can always know when my children are near so please come out." Shadow said with a calm and collective voice.



Nightshade soon decided to get away from here but she can't leave her second in command, so she did the only thing she can do, she slowly and carefully rose from where she hidden to climb though the window and moved so she was close to abyss and far from this "Shadow" guy but still close to him so she won't draw what she will do. 'After all I am going to tear my second in command a new one when we get back.' She thought.


Enteral Abyss stiffened up when he seen his Captain and reflexed a salute to her. "C-Captain N-Nightshade W-what are you doing here?" Abyss said while also thinking about putting his disguise back on but passed it off due to it being to late.


Shadow watched his student getting nervous around his Captain. 'So this is Captain of the Night guard, it's strange that I can feel a familiar presence from her, almost like she is a.....no it can't be can it. If she is one, then there might be a way to bring the full house back to it former glory.' Shadow thought to himself before clearing his thought to get there full attention. "Nightshade, I just want to tell you that what you have seen is training for my student to become a prince of the thestrals, its been far to long since they had one. But before I say any more." Shadow said before quieting down for some time.







"What is your TRUE race, please be honest too because I don't like to be lied to."
