2 Suns 1 Moon
The Solar Performance
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIt wasn’t shocking at all the castle staff and to Luna when her sister voiced that she wanted a heir, especially with subtle and some not so subtle notions that Celestia had been sending for the past few months. Even though there was her niece Cadance and nephew Blueblood she felt that they were needed elsewhere. Since Cadance got married was able to rule over the Crystal Empire. As for Blueblood, Celestia felt that he wasn't ready for any throne. Even Luna herself felt that it would be better for somepony else besides her who was more suited to rule, for she was still not ready to take her place. This drove Celestia even further. If she felt the need to step down from the throne and her beloved sister was not going to take control of the reins then who. So she began plotting, first the baby names, she would go through each alphabet and pick out the ones she liked the most. Next was that Celestia would make inquiries on colors that best suit every personality type a foal might have, she even asked for the best interior designers all over Equestria to come up with a room design that best suits the son/daughter of the royal lineage.
Celestia also commissioned fashion designers to create an entire wardrobe for the foal. Most designers presented her with clothes for a filly, while some brought clothing for a colt. And others for both genders. At one point she even looked into adoption agencies after constant complaints from Luna on how this whole thing was driving her to madness. This soon got everypony talking. Princess Celestia is going to be a mother with Luna as the foal's aunt. Every newspaper and gossip colum gushed on details of the expecting mother. The main question that crossed everypony's lips was who is the father? Researchers and historians came out and blatantly said that the accusations that Princess Celestia being pregnant were impossible, due to the fact that there hasn't been a male alicorn around for more than two millenia. So in order for her to have a child now would be to have one with a deity or incarnation of a spirit.
Months later and with innumerable interviews with the royal sisters, none of the reporters were given any solid info on whether or not that the princess was indeed pregnant. Most they got from the alicorn sisters was "when the time comes we will send word." Soon the story died along with Celestia's enjoyment of looking for an heir. Plus with all the stress of keeping diplomatic peace between kingdoms, nations and empires was exhausting. Especially since the fall of King Sombra in the Crystal Empire and the rise of Queen Chrysalis in the empire of Hyvrul in the western side of Equestria.
It had been years since Celestia and Luna had some time to spend together without the watchful eyes of the gaurds. They're decided to have a week just to themselves. Because even royalty need a vacation too. Strolling among the city citizens they were greeted with astonished and humble "princesses" when encountering their subjects, as well as soft celebratory yelps as workers would quickly tidy up the store whenever the two entered any establishment. They enjoyed being among the citizens that they cared and watched over. On the way back to the to the castle Celestia and Luna found that a large crowd has gathered in the middle of the road. Booming fast-pace beat mixtures coupled with a soft but strong accompaniment of a stringed instrument could be heard from where the pair were standing.
"Sister, what is that noise?" the dark alicorn asked.
"I have no idea Luna, it must have something to do with such a sizable audience," she replied staring out in wonder as to what or who could cause such a commotion. "Care to find out?" Celestia said with a intrigued smile.
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt." the younger alicorn replied with a shrug.
As they got closer the music became more deafing than possible. Although the previous piece was now replaced by something more hard hitting with a deeper beat along with strange and unrecognizable sounds. It seemed that this song was talking about the love of this pony's life being a movie star, and seeing how this pony couldn't go a day taking their eyes off their lover. The crowd parted immediately once they realized that both princesses came to watch. In the center of everything there were three ponies; two colts and a filly, with them was a bright orange bucket and a sliver boom-box that pumped out the tunes. The older filly and colt looked like they were in either middle or high school, while the youngest one, a colt with a light brown sugar coat including light gray stripes covering his legs and having a golden mane in a style zebras would wear with the tips seemingly dipped in blood.
The young colt wore nothing but a slim dingy white tank top that hugged his torso, and a pair of black baggy cargo shorts which had blue and green flames rising up the legs. He didn't appear to be over the age of five. This little guy was the main cause of the large crowd. His dancing, if a pony would call it that was unlike anything any pony, gryphon, or zebra has ever saw. The young colt's movements seemed erratic at best, though he was keeping up with the beat as if his mind, body, and soul was synchronized to the outrageous and out of control tune. Not only that, but his tricks were a jaw dropping spectacle. Complete with heart stopping falls, impossiblely dangerous flips, dizzying dazzling spins of every kind and extreme control of the speed in which he did each move. Every pony there including both princesses were pleasantly mystified. The young colt even appeared to glide across the cobble stone road like it was a sheet of ice.
Needless to say that both Luna and Celestia were very impressed. At the end of the show the bucket was passed around to anypony that wanted to contribute to help the living conditions of these three and both alicorn sisters definitely wanted to make a impact on this young colt's passion and dream. After almost all the crowd had dispersed having enjoyed the evenings entertainment Luna and Celestia chose this opportunity to congratulate the trio on they're performance.
