Chapter Nine: Noble Opinions
{Alduiin's POV}
I awoke the next mourning to the see the sun rising. I got up, and walked to the edge of my cave. I looked down at Canterlot. Canterlot was a massive city. Many ponies lived and had jobs there. I was a loud and busy place, and the main population seemed to be unicorns. The castle that Princess Celestia and Princess Luna lived in was also there. I still had no idea if Celestia had told everypony about me. I was about to return to my sleep, when I heard a voice.
"ALDUIIN!" I heard the voice cry. I looked down the mountain to see Pinkie Pie running up the mountain at full speed. I stepped back just as she entered the cave.
"Why hello Pinkie," I said surprised. "I wasn't expecting you."
"Of course you weren't silly!" Pinkie said. "I came here to give you this!" She reached into her mane and pulled out an envelope. She then opened it up and began to read. "Ahm, dear Alduiin, Plague, and Amnesia. You are all invited to the 'Thanks-For-Saving-Everypony-From-The-Mean-Old-Dragonborn.' There will be cake, games, and lots and lots of fun! We would be happy to see you all come and enjoy the party!"
At this, the twins began to stir. "A party?" asked Amnesia. "What's that?"
"You mean you've never been to a party before?" asked Pinkie shocked.
"Well," I replied, " they were only born a few days ago-wait, how could you hear what they were saying? They speak to me through my thoughts."
"I read their dialogue silly!" Pinkie said with a smile. Their what? You know what, I'm not gonna question it. If I did, I assume that what I would learn, would make my head explode. So instead I just shrugged and said we'd be there. Pinkie then nodded, and bolted off to Ponyvile, making it there faster than my flying could take me. I shook my head at this, then took off, with the twins eager to finally know what a party was.
After a minuet or so, Ponyvile came into detailed view. There were banners that said thank you all over the town, and balloons and streamers were everywhere. Pinkie Pie was going around double checking everything, and so was somepony else. He was an orange stallion, with a brown mane that looked very much like Pinkies. His cutie mark was some toast cut in half, with cheese stretching to either side. By using my magic, I found his name was Cheese Sandwich. They were both pretty busy, but then stopped once they heard the beating of my wings. Everypony gathered around as I landed, and once I had, Twilight stepped forward.
"Everypony, I would like you to meet, Alduiin, the one who defended our home!" Twilight said. Everypony cheered at this ad the party started. First I introduced the twins to everypony, then to the CMC specifically. The five went off without a hitch, and I was happy to see my symbiote chiildren making new friends. I was soon swarmed by ponies who had many questions on who I was, where I came from, and how I had een misunderstood the hundreds of years ago. I smiled, and gladly started to spin off the tail.
{Celestia's POV}
I was enjoying a nice cup of tea during my day court break. I too, had been invited to Alduiin's party, but the nobles demanded that I hold day court. I finished my tea, then told the guards to bring the next noble in. When the doors opened, I had to stifle a groan. Blueblood, of course it had to be Blueblood. I could not catch a break today.
I sighed and asked, "What is it that you need Blueblood?"
"Auntie, did you know there's a dragon sleeping right above the city?" he asked, as if I didn't know.
"Yes indeed I did," I answered calmly.
"You did?" he asked flabbergasted. "Then why is it still there?"
"What do you mean?" I replied.
"If there's a dragon there, then it needs to be exterminated!" he shouted.
"Blueblood, that dragon is not an enemy, but a guardian." I responded.
"Oh really?" he asks smugly. "Then why has the beast flown to Ponyvile hmm?"
"He is not a beast Blueblood!" I retorted. "His name is Alduiin, and he has gone to Ponyvile to celebrate his efforts to protect Ponyvile."
"And how can you be sure of this?" Blueblood said. He was really starting to get on my nerves.
"Because I was given an invitation to the party by Pinkie Pie, the element of laughter." I stated. "He is a friend and protector of all ponies. After all, he did risk his life against one who was destined to destroy him in a past life."
"Then we should welcome this destroyer of the beast!" Blueblood yelled. "Who knows? This 'Alduiin' could just be tricking you all into a false sense of security, just so he can easily destroy us! We should kill him now before-"
"ENOUGH!" I cut him off. "Blueblood, I do not want to hear you speak of Alduiin like that ever again! If you do, I will cut off our family ties!"
Blueblood stared at me, shocked. "Y-You can't do that! I-I'm your nephew!"
"You wont be much longer if you keep this up, now go!" The guards lead Blueblood out. I sighed, at least that was finally over. I looked up, and called in the next noble.
{Blueblood's POV}
I couldn't believe this! Auntie actually trusted that beast? No, she couldn't have trusted him. He brainwashed her! Yes, that's why she trusts him. Well, I for one wasn't going to let that monster control my auntie for much longer. But I would need some help. Some, destine to destroy him, help.
Oh... Blueblood... Please... Shut the fuck up... For the sake of all the readers... Just please... Shut that shit hole you call a mouth... It's spewing shit everywhere and its pissing me off... Great chapter doe! Keep on keeping on!
Blueballs. You just got #rekt .
It's Alduin not Alduiin
I want to send Buttercup and beat the blue-crap out of him. Lets see if his blood really IS blue!
[violent implication/kill blueblood] let the calls to for horses be put out I think we need a large firework, four ropes and a bound blueblood.... and a griffin skinner/tanner... I think his coat would look rather nice on a flagpole!
also, noticed and spelled wrong and apparently fim says there must be a space between words in the first underline.
Twilight said. Everypony cheered at this ad the party started.
Why does almost no one come up with a Canterlot OC for once to stir social trouble for the main character OC instead of just defaulting to an exaggerated prince blueblood? He came off as the least likely character in his first appearance made him the least likely to want a literal or metaphorical mess. If not that then why not for the sake of exaggerating a socially rude character why not use a background pony? I get the story is at least tagged "alternate Universe" but this is such a common theme for social antagonists and such.
6017078 no I checked it's Alduiin.
6019566 Check again, it is Alduin... http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Alduin
6019922 ok well I'm still gonna spell it with two Is.
6019931 So you are intentionally going to spell it wrong?...
6019952 I've spelg it with two Is for awhile so it'll happen anyways
6019986 That is no excuse for continuing to spell it wrong.
What you should do is spell it right from here on out, and using F3 find all the places you misspelt Alduin in the previous chapters.
6019996 sorry, that's just the way it's gonna be.
6020083 Very well if you have no desire to improve your story, then I have no desire to continue reading it.
6020095 very well. It saddens me to see someone refuse to read a story because of a slight name difference but do as you wish.
6020112 It's not a name difference. It is a spelling mistake and it saddens me to see you misspelling so many words and not wanting to do a thing about it.
*admittedly has not yet read this, so cannot and will not judge the fic before actually reading it*
Just going to leave this image in jest. Alduin the World-Eater...

... meet Nicol Bolas, God-Emperor of Madara, Tyrant of Many Worlds, Ripper of Minds, the sole surviving Elder Dragon and most ancient evil of Dominaria! FEAR HIS OPPOSABLE THUMBS, TWO-LEGGED WORM! :D Lol.
6023272 Well... I got bored... It was my first profile... So he became everything... I don't lie about this, but he did glitch and become part Vampire part Werewolf... My step brother said it was a bug in the coding...
I have to agree with Charzoid, now having read this fic... Blueblood is used far too much as the "default/lazy" use of antagonist, particularly with such a mindset.
I think the thing with the Symbiote kids is a bit soon, but it's not my story.
Have fun.
this.....is......cliche as HELL!!!!

I love some good old Blue Blood bashing, cliched or not.
6023411 oh don't worry. Yes I am using blueblood but trust me later on he gets screwed over hy the Dovakiin and the Dovakiin is having some other help. I wont say what her name is though but I will say she is a new oc of mine.
6063003 I had Dan beat those villains pretty easily to show that the forces that he struggles against, are the most dangerous things Equestria has ever seen.
Hey everyone! Sorry this new chapter's taking so long. It's another collab, and I have been studying for finals so that's why it's been taking so long. It should be done soon though so don't worry.
6017100 your comment made my night that much wonderfull
You have way too many periods in the first paragraph.
Pinkie stop doing the at the fourth wall isn't has durable as you think it is. So please you are going to destroy that thing.
No I'm not Aura!
*Jumps* PINKIE!! How did you get here I live on a different plane of fucking existence Pinkie!
I came in through your front door silly.
You know what ever mind, Pinkie leave please I get enough of this shit with Edward around.
Hey speaking of Edward where is he Aura?
He's on vacation, Wait how do you know who Edward is?
Oh I read your bio!
*glass shatters in the distance* *The background is suddenly gone*
GOD DAMN IT PINKIE!
Hehe... Ops?
Pinkie just go get the background please.
Ok!
I though I could go at least 3 days with out something like this happening.
*Sigh*
Blueblood, Default Punching Bag of authors everywhere. Literally the first thing I did was open the story file and use the search function to see if this would be another case of Blueblood-antagonist appearing only to demand the OC protagonist be killed for no reason whatsoever. Lo and behold, that's precisely what happened. In fact, it's the only reason he appeared so far.
Charzoid is right, why not create an OC for that role? Or at least give Blueblood a reason to be like he's presented here? Just pushing him into the plot like this because "he's Blueblood" looks kinda lazy.
6365186 I mean, alot of fics do it. But those times where he isn't a massive dick is nice, yes?
DO IT pinkie shatter that 4th wall! pinkiecrazy:
TACITCEL NUKE InBOUND: Target : BlueBlood : type of bomb : Pinkie Bomb.
*purple aura flashes around me as I read the part with blueblood*
Oi, purple auras my thing!7072039
