Fuck…welp; I guess I had to make at least ONE chapter somewhat serious. Even if it is just a tiny, sad filler chapter.
Try not to feel too bad…actually on second thought, go right ahead! It'll mean I've done my job right XD
Begin!
Faust, It's Cold!
I was feeling…most peculiar, it's actually rather difficult to explain. My chest felt tight, my eyes were stinging, and all I could hear was…
NO! Tis not right! Give us back our baby!
Tears began to creep into the corners of my eyes…
Arcturus, please don't leave us! Mommy loves thee, Mommy loves thee so much!
Shaking my head, I blinked away the tears and glanced up at Cadance thoughtfully. The pink alicorn was sleeping, and had been for the past few hours. Not that I blamed her, it had taken considerable effort to wrest me from Luna's weird energy. In fact it'd taken Celestia using her own energy to stop her, namely by somehow forcing her to sleep.
But even then she fought against whatever energy it was. Cadance called it magic, which I promptly scoffed at. It's energy, some sort I know not, but energy it is.
Yet still…Luna's tearful pleading as she fell into unconsciousness was fucking haunting.
Heh, oh yeah, I almost forgot about that.
A little after the train left Canterlot I somehow regained my ability to swear. The child in me had quietened down considerably as well; something that I cannot deny is a relief.
Hmm, maybe I should give a quick retelling of what happened.
To be brief and blunt, Celestia happened. I was in the middle of trying to decide something bizarrely difficult when Sunny Butt came outta nowhere and told Cadance to take me…to take me until Luna had learned her lesson, whatever that meant.
Unfortunately for her, Luna disagreed with Celestia's idea…a lot. Even when Cadance, Celestia and I were walking to the train station, Luna still refused to accept it. She pleaded with Celestia, with Cadance…with me, oh so badly with me.
Arcturus, thou dost not want to leave Mommy, right?
I hadn't answered…
O-Oh, we know! How a-about we go back to Mommy's chambers and sleep together? Doesn't that s-sound wonderful? Thee beneath our wing, against our tummy all snuggly and warm, yes?!
I actually looked at her when she said, nay, pleaded this. I couldn't help it…but when I looked, when I saw just how desperate she was, I felt something within me break like glass.
But then it got worse…
For although she hadn't actually tried to take me back beforehand, the moment Cadance and I took a step towards the train…well, she tried…
Luna's energy was so immense, so desperate that it somehow managed to break through Cadance's 'Anti-Magic foal pouch', take me out of it and into her hooves.
Where I was then promptly held in a teary, impossibly tight embrace…which was soon loosened by Cadance's frustrated energy. It pulled me out of Luna's grip, only to be halted by Luna's energy.
Don't let her take my baby, sister!
Luna, please don't make this any worse than it has to be.
Sister, please!
Luna!
I'M BEGGING YOU!
LUNA! You're hurting him!
The sheer fact that Luna spoke like that nearly made me cry out in agreement. If it weren't for Celestia's timely intervention, I may have done just that.
Though I would have probably been torn in half first…
Like I mentioned, Celestia put Luna to sleep…in an eerily similar way to how Luna did so to me. Namely by kissing my temple and whispering something, though what Celestia said I have no idea.
The only words I could hear were…well…
No…min baby boy…please…don't leave Mommy...we need…love…thee…
Celestia apologized to both Cadance and me, before quickly sweeping Luna away from the gawking ponies and vanishing into thin air. After that, all that was left to do was get on the train down to a place called' The Crystal Empire'.
Sighing as I broke from my train of thought, I nuzzled deeper into Cadance's barrel and closed my eyes…ignoring the pitifully weak voice within as it began to cry for someone else.
Well, I might as well try to catch a few Z's. I still feel pretty damn ill to be honest…
"Wake up Oliver, we're here."
The sound of a remarkably sweet voice brought me back into the waking world. Thus, I opened my eyes and looked around blearily, vaguely aware that we were no longer inside the train…but rather that we were surrounded on all sides by numerous stormtropper wannabies.
Only they were sparkling…a lot.
Oh and so was I.
I swear to Faust, if I have fangs…
Thankfully my mouth remained quite pony like, so the only thing I had to worry about was a rapidly growing headache.
Suddenly, a sparkly alabaster stallion came forward, smiling widely as he looked at Cadance. His hair was a little strange, blue with…more weird shit in it.
I'm soooo going to enjoy swearing again…hmm, maybe I can even have a few laughs with it.
I doubt anypony here expects a child to suddenly start cussing like a drunken sailor after all…
"Hey honey," the stallion greeted warmly. "How was the trip?"
"Oh it was perfect Shining," Cadance said excitedly, kissing him somewhat deeply before she did so. "I've managed to secure the Empire a stock treaty with Minous…and as you can see, I've picked up a precious little package as well."
Thou art so precious to us, min son…
"Indeed you have love," Shining chuckled, leaning down slightly so as to face me. "And what's your name then kid?"
I was about to open my muzzle and tell him…but then the most peculiar thing happened. I felt something deep within stop me from talking, leaving me merely staring at the large stallion awkwardly.
I couldn't explain it, but somehow…for some reason, I disliked this Shining Armor. Looking up at Cadance, I suddenly realized that I didn't particularly like her either.
This was quite weird to be honest, because I'm fairly certain that by taking me from Luna, she'd also stopped whatever mind fuckery the crazy nutjob had been trying to pull.
The hay is this? Just tell him your name!
"Are you okay Oliver?" Cadance asked, nuzzling my forehead slightly, as well as brushing my damp hair away with her tongue.
I…remembered a tongue, cold, yet comfortably so. I remembered the soothing feeling that accompanied it, the instinctive realization of that I was safe, I was okay…because Luna would…
Oh…min baby. Sleep now, rest thy head against us and dream naught but happiness…
Giving myself a mental slap, I subtly shook away the various sensations and focused on Shining…who just so happened to be uncomfortably close to my face.
Somewhere, deep within like before, I felt someone…growling at his invasion of my personal space.
"I'm sure he just needs a stallionly hug, honey," he assured her, pulling me out of the pouch and holding me close. "See it's already worki-OH DEAR FAUST WHY!
Being in just the right position, I struck my right hind leg out and promptly kicked him in the jewels, causing him to begin squealing in pain. This caused Shining to instantly drop me to the ground and cry agonizing tears, which in turn caused Cadance and his effeminate guard to swarm him, giving me ample opportunity to get the fuck away from them.
Which, given the apparent incompetence of EVERY pony guard, proved to be a pretty damn easy thing to do.
Thing is, if I'd actually bothered to stay and look behind me, namely at the still open train entrance…well…
I would have seen the victorious smile on a very happy unicorn.
.....
anyone else feel like crap?
you author are an asshole.... made us feel bad on purpose, dick
SHINING
Glorious.
you made me sad I want another
Forgive me for using this phrase, but I find it apt given the situation.
That escalated quickly.
Unicorn? Trixie perhaps?
wait was shining armour kicked in the nuts?
LUNA THAT WITCH!! BURRRNNN HERRRR!!
Is this where Fleur comes into play? If so which one?
Fleur as we have seen her from the show or...your siren version of Fleur? Any version is good, its your choice!
I still say luna is better.
I wonder who the unicorn is.
I might feel more like crap...if I weren't half sure that Luna's there in disguise, force-feeding Oliver more mindrape.
>Stay snuggly "OOOOOOOOOOOH Don't you worry about me, you know I will :D"
dash.ponychan.net/chan/files/src/131982673612.png
Luna you bitch! you…you actually mind controlling a infant for your own game! are you sick!? Oh right that its what I was suppose to expect but still! dude…that…that was low, I though you were done with all that of using mind control
Blueblood? I did ask you earlier but you were pretty vague. Still, knowing his reputation he may have something he would want out of Oliver.
I don't quite understand this certain sentence, could anypony inform me of which unicorn?
So let me get this straight. Shining, in a desperate attempt to avoid fathering a foal, purposefully antagonized him so he would cause a scene, drawing all attention unto himself, and giving Oliver time to escape? Well played Shiny. Well played indeed...
Of course this is naught but a theory! Still plenty of holes left to be filled, yes , plenty of holes...
Haha! Tis a glorious new chapter! We have certainly enjoyed it, and wait upon thine next chapter.
spoiler alert, it was luna in disguise (maybe. i'm just guessing)

To be honest, I like Luna better, too. However, for this story, the option with the more potential (as I saw it) was with Cadence. If it were another way somehow and Luna was trying to get Oliver, I would have voted that way, but Luna is the one who can do things better to try and reclaim him later.
4240364 yes, I believe he was
4240356
Trixie will NOT be in this story, sorry
I wanted him to stay with Luna now I have to deal with this through the rest of the story.
I wanted him to stay with Luna now I have to deal with this through the rest of the story.
Of course Oliver won't be happy with Cadence and Shining Armor, the child in him wants Luna. However, I think as time passes, he'll warm up to them. At least, I hope he does... Anyway, can't wait for the next chapter.
The Goddess of the Moon must have her child back. The Nobodies protest. We back Luna.
(This is partly due to the Collab I'm starting. KPW. In this I write my story from Luna's point of view. That and Luna is epic.)
LUNA SHALL WIN THIS BOY YET
4240364
That was the joke, yes.
4240536
Deal.
Well looks like now we have a crazy over-baring mind-raping stalker Luna, I really, really, REALLY hope Cadence realizes he's not in control and that Luna followed them. Luna... you're making it hard to keep you as best pony right now.
4240493
Given the facts that A. This involves over-mothering royalty and B. She's smiling at Shining getting a nut-shot, I'm guessing this 'Unicorn' has a hidden pair of wings...
Bug wings...
4240412 dude he kicked shinning in the nuts a sparking shinning armor what guy wouldn't also no mind rape
Damn it Luna...you are making it very hard to like you right now. *Sigh* I can understand somewhat why Luna wants a kid, having someone to love you unconditionally is a very tempting idea, but...going out of your way to mindfuck someone to get it? That's not love, that's just slavery.
4240572
Ok I don't know what you say, I understand he kick Shining Armor, but after that you lost me.
And returning to what I'm saying Luna its really getting in more and more trouble, Celestia even had to put her to sleep but disobey her?, sneak in the train? Mind rape, dude MIND RAPE a child! its…its just to much,
If it's twilight then he better pray to EVERY god he can think of.
Okey I'm confused. Why did he kick Shining Armor?
4240601 dude it wasn't mind rape it with him imprinting on her or the foal did anyways... everyone hates shinning armor make him a giant sparkling gay vampire vagina and you can not hold your self back
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON ANYMORE! ARGH, I'M SO CONFUSED. FIRST LUNA WAS GOOD, THEN BAD, THEN MAGIC OR SOMETHING, THEN SWEARING, THEN CADENCE, THEN LOW BLOW, NOW A CHALLENGER HAS APPEARED. Ugh... It's good, but now things are starting to really weird.
I was rooting for Luna. So if this ends up with Luna getting him back, I approve.
Yis.
4240312
nah, the people who choose cadence are assholes. they voted for her.
4240656
ok…why you hate shining armor? he only appear like 3 times, I get it they put him a bit useless but…hate? I don't think hate its the right word
4240693 i am a militarily fanatic he is the appinamy of disgrace and shame to every armed force in every dimension even these guys are tougher
I hate this mind-control BS, now...
... *sigh*
Ugh, all ponies are assholes.
Luna!
Speaking of which, she needs an emoticon.
So it was only temporary, I'm okay with that decision. Although from the looks of it, that didn't last long. I want to believe that Luna was not responsible for that, pretty sure Celestia has been keeping on eye on her sister after her outburst.
But I did love that scene with Shining getting kicked in the nuts(the nutz)
derpicdn.net/img/2013/5/27/334631/large.png
Was it the ghost of a certain evil unicorn who was pleased to see his adversary kicked in the jewels?
4240712
Ah…ok, I don't see exactly WHY he is a disgrace, but ok, I respect your decision
Aw man, I was hoping that he would actually like cadence and shining, not this! Just who was that unicorn? Was he/she responsible for Oliver's sudden irrational behavior?
Why the smile? Was Shining glad to get rid of Arcturus?
