After dinner was eaten, Dinky found herself on a stool in front of the kitchen sink, her tongue poking out as she carefully lifted a plate in her magic, sent a sponge over it, then rinsed it and placed it in the drainer.
Ever since Pip had invited her to sleep over at his house, Blueblood had been quite strict with Dinky the past week. Extra chores around the house, no playing until her homework was done, and other such things. She didn’t mind though, as her reward would be worth it. So, with a happy hum, she stuck her hoof into the warm water and swirled around, finding nothing and pulling the plug out.
Hopping down from her stool, Dinky scampered out of the kitchen, up the stairs, and into her bedroom, where she came to a skidding halt. Her mother was already there, packing a set of saddlebags with some of Dinky’s pyjamas. Turning to her daughter, Derpy slowly raised an eyebrow. “Tell me again why I shouldn’t be worried.”
Dinky sighed, then gave a small giggle. “I told you mom, we’re going to do some stargazing, then spend the night in his treehouse. His mom will be with us all time… besides, I’m too young for any of that.”
“And how do you know about… that?” Derpy asked, fearing the answer.
“Uh, I like science, remember?” Dinky replied, rolling her eyes. “That includes biology.”
“True… but you’ll understand my concerns when you’re a mother,” Derpy warned, smirking when she saw Dinky’s worried expression. Derpy glanced at the clock next to Dinky’s bed, giving a gasp then turning around and finished her packing, then gently placed the bags on Dinky’s back. “You’d best get a move on, and have fun.”
“I will mom, see you Sunday,” Dinky said, rising up to wrap her forelegs around her mother’s neck, giving her a kiss on the cheek. She then pulled away, running from her room and down the stairs. Blueblood was stood in the hall, and Dinky paused to hug and kiss him too, calling out her goodbye over her shoulder as she ran out of the door, not hearing his reply.
The streets of Ponyville in the early evening were sparsely populated, just the odd pony here or there, none of them blocking the fast moving filly as she made tracks across town. She had only been to Pip’s a few times, but knew exactly how to get there from her home. So when she came across an impromptu street party in her way, she skidded to a halt, cocking her head.
“Princess Dinky, what troubles you?” came a male voice from behind the filly, causing her to spin around. Her heart was pounding, both from the exertion and surprise, but she took a deep breath before smiling at the pony, who was wearing a black cloak with the hood down.
“Um… I know you’re a Katakan, but you’re not wearing any armour…”
“Ah. My name is Dark Star,” said the stallion, giving her a friendly smile. “I am here on orders from the Night-Mistress and Captain Deadeye. They want me to keep an eye on you. Now where are you going so late at night on your own?”
“I’m on my way to my co… friend’s, but I dunno how to get there other than this way,” Dinky said, pointing her hoof at the crowd in her path.
“There’s an alley over here, Princess,” Dark Star said with a nod of his head. “It loops around. I can take you down there if you wish?”
“That would be lovely, thank you Mr Star.”
Giving her another smile, Dark Star waited for Dinky to enter the alley and walk down it a little before reaching into his cloak with a wing. Once he was certain nopony could see them, he jumped forward, sticking a syringe in Dinky’s flank.
The filly gave a yelp from the slight pain, turning to ask Dark Star what was going on, but she couldn’t form the words and her vision was blurry. Dinky then began to feel tired and heavy, like her hooves were made of lead, and her body went numb. The last thing she saw was the golden eyes of Dark Star.
Checking he was still in the clear, Dark Star gently rolled Dinky into a sack and placed her on his back. He grabbed a scroll from inside his cloak, using his hoof and a nail to attach it to a wall. Moving out of the building’s lights that were shining into the alley, he faded away into a fine mist, taking the filly with him.
“You know, this is more complicated then I remember!” Blueblood moaned as Derpy lay sprawled over his back, the stallion’s hooves supporting the weight of them both.
Derpy giggled and kissed his cheek. “Unicorns aren’t exactly built for this.” she teased him as she stretched a hoof towards an arrow that pointed to various colours. When she gave it a spin, she watched until the arrow finally landed on a random target. “Right Forehoof Green!”
Here goes! Blueblood pressed hard against his left foreleg’s hoof and lifted his right forehoof to a green spot not far from him. He smiled in glee as he was about to reach it, but dread soon followed when his left foreleg started to wobble. Pony feathers! Before he knew it, he fell onto his back and Derpy landed on his chest as she cheered and laughed at the same time.
“I win!” Derpy shouted out as she laughed hysterically and blew a raspberry at Blueblood. “That’s two for me and one for you.”
“You cheated!” Blueblood said.
“No I didn’t”
Blueblood cocked his brow as he stared at Derpy. “You used your wings, and that’s cheating.”
Derpy pouted as she looked back at her wings, still tucked into her torso. “I didn’t use them.”
“Yes you did.” Blueblood said mischievously before he reached for Derpy’s wings and subjected them to a fury of tickles. As he continued with his onslaught, he felt his fiancée squirm in his hold as she tried to escape, whilst laughing uncontrollably.
“S-stop!” Derpy pleaded as she tried to get out of Blueblood’s grip, yet her attempts were in vain as he continued to tickle her. She tried to tickle him in return but found it difficult as she could barely concentrate. Finally when she felt his hooves releasing her sides, she let out a huff as she sighed in relief.
Just as Derpy was about to get off from Blueblood’s chest, she was caught off guard again when he planted his lips against hers. As the surprise subsided, she melted into the kiss and rested her body upon her fiancé who wrapped his hooves around her torso. When she felt her stallion’s hooves reach for her flank, she momentarily removed her lips for his muzzle and smiled demurely down upon him. “Let’s take this to our room…”
“Okay.” Blueblood answered and both he and Derpy got up from the ground and made their way to the bedroom. Just as he was about to close the door behind him, a knock on the front door stopped the couple from secluding themselves in the separate room.
Who could that be? Derpy thought to herself as she walked downstairs to answer the door. Upon opening it she saw a brown pinto unicorn mare with white patches adoring her body with a cutie mark of a constellation.
“Oh, Autumn Star... Hi,” Derpy greeted the mare, yet frowned a little when she saw the concern on the other mare’s face and she finally noticed a little colt standing in front of the unicorn mare. “Pip? What’s going on here?”
“Is Dinky here with you?” Autumn asked.
Derpy shook her head and furrowed her brow even deeper. “No, she’s suppose to be with...” she said as she switched her gaze from Autumn to Pip.
Autumn shook her head as her ears drooped slowly. “We were expecting her about an hour ago, but she hasn’t arrived at our house… so I wondered if she forgot about the sleepover tonight—”
“But she’s not the kind of filly to ditch a friend!” Pip interjected, scrunching his lips as he looked down to the ground.
“She’s not the kind of filly to run away, is she?” Autumn asked Derpy.
“No, never!” Derpy shouted out before she covered her mouth with her hoof. “She’s would never run away from home.”
“Derpy,” Blueblood called out as he walked toward the front door. “Everything okay?” he asked her.
Derpy shook her head as her lips quivered. “Dinky’s missing.” she uttered out as a tear streaked from her eye, causing Blueblood to hold onto her. Before she knew it, more tears escaped from her as she tried to contain them.
As he held onto Derpy, Blueblood pupils dilated in shock as his jaw dropped open and he stared at Autumn. His mouth slowly closed as his eyes narrowed and a frown appeared on his face.
“Autumn, can you and Pip take Derpy to the local guard and report this please?” Blueblood asked the unicorn mare as he let go of Derpy.
“What are you going to do?” Derpy asked Blueblood as she looked up into his eyes, but was answered by a brief kiss from him.
“I’m going to Twilight… my Aunts need to know about this.” he replied as he walked out the door. “I’ll see you at the guard’s station when I’m done!” Blueblood called out as he galloped towards the library.
“...and then she said ‘I’m a pony, that’s why I have a long face!”
Canterlot Castle’s throne room erupted into laughter as the yellow stallion gave the punchline to his joke, smiling as the twin sisters upon their thrones nearly fell from their seats as they struggled to contain their mirth. Gathering her composure first, Luna wiped a tear from her eye and smiled at the stallion. “Thou art truly good at thy profession, Mr Sandwich. We would greatly appreciate it if thou wouldst perform at the party we have arranged.”
“It’d be my pleasure, your highness,” Cheese Sandwich said as he bowed low. “For now, I have a show to put on at Canterlot’s Comedy Store, so I’ll take my leave.”
Luna nodded, smiling widely as one of her Katakans guided him out of the room. Now that she had managed to calm down somewhat, Luna levitated two glasses over, one being taken in the golden glow of her sister’s magic. A sudden pop made them both blink, a scroll appearing in green flame.
Grabbing it with her magic, Celestia took a sip of her wine as she unrolled the scroll and began to read it over. Everypony in the throne room jumped when her magic cut out and her glass fell to the floor, smashing into bits and the liquid inside soaking into the carpet.
“Celestia, what is it?” Luna asked, frowning when the scroll was shakily floated over to her, getting worried as her sister’s magic never faltered in such a way. Ah, a note from Blueblood. What has he said that has spooked Cele… Her thoughts cut off when she saw the main passage, the alicorn pausing for a moment. She then jumped from her throne and forced the room’s doors open with her magic. “SHADOWBOLTS, TO THE DREAMCATCHER!”
The Royal Canterlot Voice echoed down the corridors of the castle, most likely waking those from the day staff who had already fallen asleep, but Luna did not care. Turning to her left, she floated the scroll in front of Deadeye, who quickly scanned the document. With a snarl of anger the stallion slipped into the shadows, leaving Luna with a rather grim looking smile on her face.
Inside one of the barracks that was hidden within the inner walls of Canterlot Castle, nearly a hundred Katakas were sitting at long wooden benches, enjoying their evening meals. Each and every one paused and looked to the centre of the room as a black mist appeared, coalescing into the form of Deadeye. The one-eyed stallion took a single glance around the room then headed towards the doors. “First platoon, with me. We’re due on the Dreamcatcher five minutes ago!”
A third of the Katakans groaned quietly, but still stood and followed their captain out into the training grounds where the airship was docked. Once his group were on board and he checked for the presence of the Shadowbolts, Deadeye made his way to the wheelhouse and told the pilot in no uncertain terms to make for Ponyville at full speed.
When he stepped back onto the deck, the thirty Katakans of first platoon were waiting, silent as they stared at him. To the side were several mares and stallions in purple full body armour, Nightshade stood in front of them and placing a helmet onto her head. Spotting her son she gave him a nod, and he turned to face the regular Corps. “Katakans! We have received a note from Prince Blueblood. His daughter is missing!” Deadeye felt pride over his Katakans as they all began to growl angrily at the news. “We will be in Ponyville within half an hour at full speed. Before we even land, I want you down there and searching for any sign of Princess Dinky.”
Every Katakan, except the Shadowbolts, had their manes and tails billowing in the wind as the Dreamcatcher sped away from Mount Canterlot, twin streaks of magical fire billowing from behind. From below the airship would have seemed like an angry dragon hurtling through the skies, but what it carried was much, much worse.
Very soon the lights of Ponyville came into view, and Katakans started dropping from the Dreamcatcher in twos. Deadeye, Nightshade, and the Shadowbolts waited until they were near the centre of town before jumping over the side of the airship, diving straight down and stopping once they were close to the ground.
As soon as his hooves touched the ground, Deadeye marched up to the house they had landed in front of, staring harshly at of the two guards stood outside. “Report.”
“No sign of the filly, nor any sort of scuffle, has been found in the town sir,” the guard replied, shaking slightly as he faced off against the angry Katakan. “The captain and the other guards are still out looking. She told us to stay here in case somepony tried something against the parents,” he quickly tacked on, taking a deep breath when Deadeye stepped back.
The door being opened drew their attention, Blueblood stood in the light. He took one glance at the scene and then stepped out, being followed by a unicorn mare. “Captain Deadeye, this is Autumn Spark, Pipsqueak’s mother. She is the one that told us about Dinky missing,” he said as he surveyed the Shadowbolts. “Come, let us walk to route to their home.”
Giving a nod, Deadeye, Nightshade, and the Shadowbolts followed Blueblood and Autumn as they slowly trotted down the streets, the Katakans looking, listening, and sniffing for any sign of the missing filly. As one the Katakans began to growl when they passed one alley, Deadeye and Nightshade pushing their way through the others.
The stallion sniffed at the air, his eye narrowed as he looked around. “There is shadow essence here… but I did not send a Katakan. Mother?” he asked, turning to the mare.
“I did not order it either. Whoever this pony is, he is not of those in service to the Night-mistress,” Nightshade said as she moved into the shadow, half of her body turning to mist. Deadeye watched with a little jealously, as it was an ability he did not possess, that of perfect control over the shadow magic. “It is as I feared…. the Katakan was Dark Star.”
Deadeye snarled and struck out with a hoof, leaving a hole in the brick wall to his side. “When I see him again, I am going to rip out his throat!” The stallion said, looking at his hooves. It was then he saw a note of paper, and he picked it up, reading out the writing aloud. “‘If you want your daughter back safe, you will agree to my mistress’ terms.’” Deadeye passed the note over to Blueblood. “Does this mean anything to you?”
The unicorn took the paper with a frown, a number of names coming into his mind as who the mastermind could be. “No. Any number of ponies could be behind this,” he said, giving a dejected sigh.”
“I just hope Dinky is not injured,” Nightshade said, looking Blueblood in the eye. “Shadow diving with those who do not have shadow magic is very risky at best, even more so to… say a unicorn foal...”
“Wake up! Wake up, you little tramp!”
As soon as she heard the cacophony of a mare screaming at her, Dinky eyes opened to find herself in a dark room. When she tried to stand up, her back collided with steel, causing her to yelp from the pain and cold that emanated from it. The filly’s head looked to every corner, and she saw metal bars surrounding her. On closer inspection, she could see wine barrels stacked on top of each other.
“Hey!” The same mare barked out to Dinky and slammed her hoof on the cage, causing it to rock as it suspended in the air thanks to a rope tied to it. “I’m talking to you, you little horseapple!”
Dinky tried her best to back away from the leering amber unicorn mare, but was stopped by the metal bars behind her. “Who are you!? Where am I?!” she shouted out.
Before Amber could retort, Dark Star stepped out of the shadows with a malicious grin on his face. “Where you are now doesn’t matter… who she is, is my client.” he answered Dinky, pointing at the elder mare. “By the way… the task is over, you should pay up now.” he said as he exposed his canines at the amber unicorn.
“The task is over when I say it is over!” Amber snapped as she pointed a hoof at Dark Star, who only cocked his brow at her. “Fine!” she spat out and levitated a bag of bits to the Katakan. “But only half now! The rest later… are we clear?”
Dark Star inspected every bit in the bag before he nodded. “Crystal,” he said before his ears twitched, causing him to look to the stairs. “Looks like we have company…”
“Who—” Amber asked as she looked to the stairs, where a pale yellow unicorn stallion stood still. “Sly, what are you doing here?” she asked him.
“Getting some wine, what do you think?” he replied sarcastically, not even glancing at Dinky as he walked past the cage she was in towards racks full of bottles. Amber watched him with a frown as he stood their humming, then selected a bottle with his magic. As he turned around, Sly’s eyes met Dinky’s, then he looked to his sister. “Amber… there’s a filly in a cage.”
“Your point?” Amber asked harshly.
“I just hope you know what you’re doing,” Sly said giving Dinky a sideways glance. “Oh, and the cooks said dinner will be ready in about ten minutes.” With that, he walked up out of the basement, leaving Amber and Dark Star alone with the filly once more.
“I’ll pay you double to make sure nopony else comes down here,” Amber said as she faced Dark Star, getting a grin and a nod in return. Turning back to Dinky, Amber tapped the edge of the cage, laughing when the filly backed away. “You’re the perfect bargaining tool. If your father doesn’t meet with my request, then he’ll be getting bits of filly in the mail!”
With that, Amber and Dark Star left the wine cellar, turning the lights out as they went. The stallion went a different way to the mare, more than likely to find his prefered type of meal, whilst she made her way into the dining room. Amber expected to see Sly sat down and waiting, but he hadn’t arrived yet. Probably off with the scullery maid again. Taking what would have been his seat at the head of the table, Amber impatiently tapped a hoof on the thick wood.
Several minutes passed, the mare now annoyed, and she turned to face the open door to the kitchen. “Hey! Hungry noblemare in here!” No reply came, and it was then she noticed the sound, or rather lack of, coming from the kitchen. Pushing her chair back with a growl, Amber stomped into the kitchen, abate to berate the staff when the empty room caused her to stop in shock, the words she thought echoing in the silence. “...where is everypony?”
His heart was pounding in his chest, his leg muscles burning, and his lungs hurt from lack of air. Sly Cur ignored all of these as he galloped his way down the streets of Trottingham, one destination in mind. Even if he failed in his current task, the fact he had told the household servants to flee before certain doom was visited upon them made him feel better about himself.
Sly kept to the lit paths instead of using the alleyways as a shortcut, as he might be ambushed by his sister’s lackey if he used them, and he didn’t want to take that chance. Skidding around a corner, Sly caught sight of what he was after, sleek airships held in a large docking structure above Lake Starswirl.
Ignoring the larger airships, Sly slowed to a canter and approached the gangplank of a medium sized vessel. The pony stood there noticed him coming, raising an eyebrow at Sly. “Can I help you, sir?” The stallion asked.
Sly paused for several moments, catching his breath and then falling to his haunches, looking over at the airship. “How… how fast can she… get to Canterlot?”
“Canterlot from here?” the pony replied, rubbing his chin with a hoof. “If we had a full compliment of unicorns on board, an hour. We’re at half crew, but if they pushed hard, we’d probably do it in an hour and a half.”
“I need you to take me to Canterlot, specifically the castle, right now!” Sly almost shouted, going to step on board when he was surrounded by a pale yellow aura and lifted into the air. His eyes went wide when he was turned around and saw who it was that had captured him.
“Now I am rightly confused. Doesn’t your family have its own airship?” Fancy Pants asked with a hint of amusement.
“Amber has Blueblood’s daughter!” Sly blurted out, grunting when the other unicorn’s magic cut and he was dropped to the floor.
“What?! Then why aren’t you going to the guards?!” Fancy bellowed, glaring at Sly.
“She has a Katakan helping her…”
“Captain,” Fancy said, turning to the pony watching with a frown. “We make for Canterlot with all haste. Make sure there are no shadows large enough to hide a pony in any section of the ship. We’re going to need another Katakan to fight a Katakan.”
AMBER YOU WENCH!!! I HOPE BLUEBLOOD RIPS YOUR HEART OUT!!
*angry growling sounds*
When good ponies go to war...
Wow. That just happened. Great job. I can't wait to see how this turns out. I loved Deadeye's response. I honestly don't know why Luna is considering him as a possible mate. I mean he is doing one of the best things to get a women's attention. He is being kind and caring towards a foal.
Well Amber is either dumb or going to kill Dinky as she's let the filly see her, unless we want to be charitable and say she's going to wipe her memory.
5818222
Whose to say she doesn't?
5818257 We have yet to see. I do want to see if they do get together. Great job with writing this story.
OH thank god Sly did have a heart, and isn't as horrible as his sister clearly is.
5818276 Dude, that is stated in the last chapter.... he's just very good at disguising what he is thinking.
5818276 I reckon it's a tad bit less heart and more survival instincts. You do Not mess with the adoptive grandchild of Celestia and Luna.
Edit. Well, Grand niece
5818247 She passed the rational actor model when she learned her chances of getting with Blueblood to cover her flank from the crimes she's already committed, once those plans fell through her strategy became much less cunning in her state of panic, she is not currently thinking things through to the fullest. The moment she decided on this plan she failed to calculate possible risks in the plan (as seen by leaving Sly be and not thinking to make sure who would notice Dinky going MIA) and left to much to her own assumptions.
This is why JFK tried to keep the lid on the missiles in Cuba for nearly a week before bringing it up to the public, it gave him and the ExComm time to form a response that would avert nuclear war. Knowledge is power.
In any case I still want to see Amber taken alive, so she can suffer the consequences of her actions for the remainder of her natural life, but I won't mourn her if she has to turn into a cadaver to make sure no innocents are harmed.
5818361 Point is the same, when the relatives of the filly you've kidnapped, who is also a princess, is Luna and Celestia, Alicorns who move the moon and sun respectively on a daily basis, you do NOT want to mess with them, not to mention they also have the entire royal guard on their side, of which a massive number of katakans is included, and not to mention that pretty much the entirity of equestria absolutely adores the two sisters.
Bascially, Amber is screwed.
Heh. Oh, I love it when a plan immediately goes to shit, particularly if that plan involves kidnapping and potential torture.
ROT IN TARTARUS, AMBER!!
Ooh...looks like somepony got a little too greedy. Now you have two pissed off alicorns, and an entire platoon of pissed off night guard looking for you and your lackey.
As much as I wanted Dinky to have her kidnapping foiled, I will give you points for having this happen so quickly. Since Amber just wanted information, but give a few days her wants can certainly change.
As a sidenote, is there a chapter that describes what Amber looks like?
Two angry alicorns, entire day and night guard, an angry father and mother, katakans. Yep she's in big trouble. I'm sure the elements and Candance will help. And please have Derpy beat her up until her body is black and blue.
Blueblood: What the Hell is this?
Amber: A ransom demand?
Blueblood: No, but you would think it was, right? You can read it like one,., Here, I'll show you: "f you want your daughter back safe, you will agree to my mistress’ terms." But this is NOT a ransom demand...THIS IS A SUICIDE NOTE!!!! Good news....the euthanasia will be carried out by ME!!!
5818400 There's a nice little padded cell with her name on it.
dun duuun duuuuuuuun!
yay cant wait to see the next chapter :D
Dumb, dumb,DUMB!
She doesn't put two and two together when neither her brother not the household staff aren't there after her brother saw Dinky? She has been very cunning up until this point. Now, she is acting more like a fool. Why the hell did she take the filly to her own home?
I already wanted her dead before, now, I want her taken alive so she can think about how much of a dumb b*tch she actually was. I want her to keep thinking "Why didn't I do this?' or "I should have done that." for the rest of her life, rotting in a cell...when Luna isn't personally giving her nightmares each night while she is under 24 hour guard so she can't take the easy way out.
.... I'M GOING TO TEAR OUT EACH OF HER NON VITAL ORGANS SLOWLY WITH A PLASTIC FORK TO SHE CAN WATCH THE BLOOD POUR FROM EHR BEFORE I OPEN HER CHEST CAVITY AND TAKE OUT HER STILL BEATING HEART SO SHE CAN WATCH ME CUT THE ARTERIES SLOWLY.
5819083 dude, she's been a fool the whole time. her "plan" was doomed from the start. She expected to kidnap a filly and use her as a bargaining chip so Blueblood breaks up with Derpy, all the while ignoring the fact that Dinky and her mother are beloved by both princesses, several guard both normal and Katakan, and the Elements of Harmony. On top of this she has made no countermeasures as to throw the scent off her trail. she was gonna be found sooner or later. Her brother is just speeding up the process. If she was smart she would've used her connections to spread rumors about Derpy, causing disdain by the other nobles who would isolate derby. This would cause a similar effect as when derpy knocked out that mare at the bar a few chapters earlier, which would make things worse for her, all the while with Amber in the background making sure the wrong things happen to her to keep it going. She would then lash out at Blueblood from the stress, causing them to fight and, eventually, drift apart/break up. Then she would swoop down and play rebound, getting her reward. Something like that would have few flaws, as opposed to the one flaw the size of CANTERLOT, MOUNTAIN AND ALL. So, in short, she's a spoiled idiot who thinks she's cunning, and who got lucky a few times. seeing how things turn out though, I think its safe to say that her luck is about to run out quick.
Dinky's not going to be twisted by the shadows and become nightmare Dinky, is she?
i mean what were those risks Nightshade was talking about? Everyone knew Amber was screwed but they overlooked the fact the author took the time to mention this. i don't remembered where someone quoted it but, "if you mention a gun on the wall in the first chapter, someone should be shot by the fifth." and, now i'm really worried about Dinky's safety.
I'm thinking of Wise Word pulling a Walter, the butler, from Van Helsing.
He don't need no stinkin' Katakan powers to take out the trash.
For not only has Amber 'perturbed' his master, she is endangering a filly that he very much loves.
"Sorry, all out of mercy."
Tirek: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Crossed a line there missy. That's just wrong.
This is not going to end well at ALL for her. She has not thought this cunning plan of hers very well.
This made me roll my eyes so hard that I could see the inside of my cranium. That's a society in which everyone goes naked in public pretty much all the time, of course they'll know about sex from an early age.
Yeesh, I certainly hope it all comes out alright.
Shit's going down and I have to grab my torture kit. wonderful!
5819279
Can i watch?
Two updates? What the... Oh, Chapter 18 landed the same day as 17.
*Catches up*
And apparently what Sly lacks in brains, he makes up in survival instincts. Nice!
Amber's life expectancy just shrank considerably.
5819083 When you're crazy in love(emphasis on the crazy) you'll do anything to get them to notice you. Amber has been trying for a long time so she's pretty much desperate right now. Any plan seems like a good plan to her. Also she's too jealous to think about all the mistakes.
Yeah, Grandmum says that's what she used to tell you!
5819463 you do not threaten dinky
5820983 Which is why I want her to be caught alive and locked up for the rest of her life. She will have plenty of time to think about all the mistakes she made. As well as constantly hear who Blueblood and Derpy are living very happily together. Maybe even hear about them expanding their family. Hell, send her a wedding picture to stew over.
"There are things in this life that are far worst than death."
5818643 Well, what else could we expect. At the very least she will be captured.... hopefully something along the lines either of cupcakes or TO THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON.
5821576 *Lucky424 uses a Special Potion on De_Koi.* HP is restored and boosted to 300% when De_Koi reads this story. Increased risk of contracting daww induced diabetes.
And Amber never thought anyone would find out about this hair-brained plan of hers?
There's stupid, and then there's crazy stupid. I just can't believe she managed to convince anypony to assist her.
Dark Star's not too high on the intelligence scale either, allowing himself to be seen like that.
BURN AMBER! BURN HER TO ASHES BRING HER BACK TO LIFE THEN BURN HER AGAIN! All in all I am so glad I found this story today. But damn thats a cliffhanger! Im glad Sly atleast has a conscious about Dinky and is trying to do the right thing.
5824317 A 'Ditzy Doo' is mentioned in Winter Wrap Up, but it is never confirmed who that pony is, and I am firmly of the camp that follows the original Last Round Up cut, where she was called 'Derpy'.
But, each to their own. If someone wants to call her 'Dizty', I'm not going to stop them.
Well, once they get to the castle, I'm pretty sure that Amber is all sorts of fucked.
. . . i wonder, will Amber become somepony worse than Cruella Deville or just stay at her level.
5824321 I know it was said as a joke.
Thank the gods for stallions like Sly Cur.
Amber, if anything happens to Dinky, you'll be in for a very, VERY bad treatment.
And judgment will be upon you far sooner than you'd think.
5819739 when reading your commit i remembered a thought i had. Wise Words has several parallels to Alfred. quite a few people forget Alfred was mi6 before working for the Wanes. of coarse if Blueblood was batmane then that would mean derpy would be Talia Al Ghul's pony persona.
Amber, you fucked up good.
Amber, you wanted to get fucked by a noble? You're about to get fucked by ALL of them...And the entire Royal Guard--both sets of them...And the Elements of Harmony...Four alicorn princesses--one of whom is an Element of Harmony, so that's a double-fucking right there...And after all that, you're going to get fucked by Dinky's mom!
There isn't enough vasaline in Equestria that's going to help you through this
Prince Blueblood, the Adeptus Astartes are at your command.

Ahh the return of the why boner XD with a vengeance
Hahahahaha!!!
Rats fleeing a sinking ship! Love it!
