> Non Royal Friendships > by Peaceheart > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Message > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Message A young alicorn stallion was sitting in a throne room next to his beloved wife. "Your majesties, a letter from Princess Twilight Sparkle's daughter, Dawn Shine of Ponyville, has just arrived," a unicorn stallion with green fur, brown combed mane wearing a steel shining armor suit said as he bent down near the two alicorns. "Dawn must have a good reason for sending us a letter at this time of day," the alicorn stallion with light blue fur, green eyes, a gold crown and a dark blue mane said as he took the letter from the unicorn. "Thank you, Forest Green, you are excused, Forest, before you go, get our son and daughter, please?" the alicorn mare with yellow fur, purple kind eyes, a gold crown and a light green mane asked kindly. The stallion stood up before answering, "Yes right away, your majesty." The stallion galloped out of the room and went to the son and daughter's rooms in the castle. "What does the letter say, dear?" the mare asked. "Dawn wants Moon and Star to go to Ponyville and make friends, simply everypony would want to be their friends," the stallion replied with a soft smile on his face. The door opened and two young alicorns entered the room. The first was a young alicorn mare with yellow fur, green eyes, glasses on her nose and long red mane. The second was a young alicorn stallion with dark blue fur, purple eyes and messy light blue mane. The two young alicorns stood in front of the older alicorns. "Moon Drop, Bright Star, the two of you are going to go to Ponyville and make new friends, ones that will be your best friends. You will be there for three weeks and Dawn Shine will be in charge of you two, so pack your bags, you'll be leaving in forty five minutes," the older stallion said. "Yes father," the younger mare said as she and the younger stallion bowes their heads and felt to prepare to leave. "They've grown so much, don't you think so Prism Blast, dear?" the mare asked. "Yes, indeed Flora dear," the stallion named Prism Blast said happily. Forty five minutes later... The two younger alicorns packed their bags quickly and both were ready to leave. "Good bye, mother. Food bye, father," the two said in unison as they hugged Prism Blast and his wife Flora. "Be careful and be safe," Flora said as she kissed her son and daughter. "Don't worry dear, their old enough to go travel to Ponyville," Prism said with a smile. "Don't worry mother, we'll write to you and father every second day," the stallion said. "Okay, now go," Flora said with a smile. "Thank you," the mare said as they exited the room and left to Ponyville on their carriage. "So much they've grown," Flora said as she waved goodbye to her son and daughter with Prism. "Don't worry, they'll be fine," Prism said as he sat back down on his throne. > Arriving in Ponyville > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Arriving in Ponyville The carriage came to a slow and gentle stop. "We're here your highnesses," one of the pegasi that was pulling the carriage said. The Prince and Princess of Manetania looked around the small town. "Thank you, Sky Dive, tell mom and dad that we arrived safely, could you?" The mare asked. "Yes, your majesty, we'll see you in two weeks, have fun," the pegasus named Sky Dive said as he and the other pegasus flew away, leaving the Prince and Princess next to a large tree in Ponyville. "Hello, you two must be Prince Moon Drop and Princess Bright Star, right?" a dark orange unicorn mare, with a blue and light purple mane asked. "Um... yes, I'm Prince Moon Drop, and that's my younger sister Princess Bright Star," the stallion named Moon Drop said. "You must be Dawn Shine right?" the mare named Bight Star asked. "Yes, welcome to Ponyville. Everypony is super friendly so I bet that you two will make friends easily," Dawn said with a smile. "Thank you, where will we be sleeping?" Moon asked. "I already got you a little house near the market, two bedroom and everything. I hope you enjoy your stay," Dawn said as she turned away to go into the library. "Excuse me, but do you have two cloaks or something, so not everypony will know we're alicorns?" Star asked. "Yes, here," Dawn said as she levitated two brown cloth cloaks. "Thank you," Moon said. "No problem, your house is at the end of this road, near Sugar Cube Corner, be very careful, Lemon Zest, Love Tart and Sweet Joy are a bit crazy when there are new ponies in town," Dawn said with a smile. "Thanks for the tip," Star said. "No problem," Dawn said as she went inside the library. Moon and Star looked at each other before putting on the cloaks. They walked to the market, seeing many ponies, two that seemed very interesting. "That's Auntie Ginger, these apples must be good," a young mare pegasus with brown fur, yellow spots, light blind blue eyes, a light pink mane with a streak of white said. "C'mon Lily, we have to go," a young mare pegasus with yellow fur, light purple eyes, a long white mane said. "Coming Blossom, can you get the bag of apples?" the brown fur pegasus asked. "Sure, bye Auntie Ginger," the yellow fur said. "Bye," light brown earth pony mare with a yellow mane named Ginger Gold said with a smile. The yellow mare picked up the bag of apples and began to walk as the brown mare flew. The brown mare flew, but a fast pegasus that was rushing, flew and bumped into her, causing her to fall. "Lily!" the yellow mare yelled as she saw the mare fall. Moon quickly flew into action, catching the mare before she hit the ground. He flew down and let the mare down. "Lily, are you okay?" The yellow mare asked. "Yes, thank you," the brown mare said giving Moon a soft smile. "I'm Moon Drop," Moon said. "I'm Lily Flower," the brown mare named Lily Flower said as she held her hoof out. "Pleasure to meet you," Moon said as he gave her hoof a nice and gentle shake. "Thank you for helping me little sister, I'm Blossom Heart," the yellow pegasus mare named Blossom Heart said. "I'm Bright Star, Moon little sister, nice to meet you," Star said with a smile. "Well, we better get going, thank you," Blossom said as she grabbed the bag of apples. "See you later," Lily said as she gave Moon one last smile before leaving with her sister. Moon watched as the two siblings left, watching Lily the entire way as she went out of his view. Moon was in a daze, watching Lily as if she was the love of his life. "Am I in love with Lily?" he asked himself. "Moon! Are you okay?" Star asked in concern. "Huh? Oh, yeah I'm fine," Moon said. "Okay, well let's go to our house," Star said as she looked at her brother before walking to the house. "Yeah, let's do that," Moon said as he looked at the path Lily and Blossom went one last time before going after Star. > Trio Surprise? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trio Surprise? Star and Moon when into a small two room little house, there was a small kitchen, a living room and bathroom. They grabbed their bags and went into their own rooms, Moon was downstairs and Star was upstairs. After about thirty minutes of unpacking, the siblings grabbed their sattle bags and some bits and when shopping for food. The two were looking and buying a bunch of food to last the two weeks they were going to be in Ponyville. The two were about to enter their house before three ponies jumped in front of them out of nowhere. "Hiya!" a young earth pony mare with a puffy yellow mane, yellow fur, green eyes said. The siblings jumped back, looking at the three ponies. One was a young pegasus mare with a red and white mane, peach fur and violet eyes. The other was a young earth pony mare with a red and pink mane, light brown fur and amber eyes. "Uh... hello?" Moon asked with a bit of confusion. "Hi, I'm Lemon Zest," the yellow mare named Lemon Zest said with a smile. "I'm Sweet Joy," the pegasus named Sweet Joy said. "And I'm Love Tart," the other earth pony named Love Tart said. "Welcome to Ponyville!" the three mares said in unison. "Thanks, I'm Bright Star, and that's my older brother, Moon Drop," Star said. "Hi," Moon said as he was thinking about Lily. "We're triplets, you two are invited to attend Bright and Moon's welcome party, it's tomorrow at Sugar Cube Corner, see you there," Sweet said as they ran off. "Okay," Moon said. "Let's hit the hay, it's already sunset," Star said as they entered the house. After putting the food away, the siblings went to bed, with Moon dreaming of Lily.
