When Twilight got back home she wanted nothing more than to curl up in a small little ball and sleep and sleep and sleep until the morn but there were other things she had to do first.  "Spike, you still awake?" she called out.  After a moment of silence, the skittering of claws could be heard coming down the stairs.  A purple baby dragon appeared at the bottom of the stairs.

"Hiya Twi how was Pinkie's 'crazy super-dy duper-dy legen -wait for it- dary stunningly *pant pant* cramazing discovery'", Spike questioned.

"Well I need you to take a letter to Princess Celestia on the subject please."

"Ummmmm Twilight you said that as a statement but the 'please' made it sound like a question", Spike giggled. *Smack*. He was hit in the face with a blank scroll.  Twilight levitated a quill and ink to her number one assistant. "Just take the letter. Mare tries to be polite and this is what she gets." she muttered.

Canterlot Castle


Celestia had just finished lowering the sun when a gust of glittering green and gray smoke blew in through a window.  It curled and condensed into a scroll with Twilight's cutie mark stamped into the wax seal. Hmm I wonder what my faithful ex-student could want she thought as she opened the scroll.  "Let's see . . .  . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . .. .."  When she finished reading a huge smile spread across he face.

Celestia turned around and sprinted to the throne room before her sister, Luna, could start night court.  She slowed to a stop before she turned the corner into the hall that led to the throne room.  She turned the corner and walked up to the the thestrals that were guarding the door. "Ma'am." She replied with a curt nod and waited until they opened the door.

"Welcome to night court how -" Luna started to say before she noticed to look on her sisters face.  "Sister why art thou so ... elated."  Celestia levitated the scroll to her sister.

Dear Princess,

There was a disturbance in Prancing Park this morning.  Pinkie Pie was, I think she said she was walking Gummy or some thing, it's so hard to tell with that mare sometimes.  Seriously some of what she says has no relevance to anything and I had better stop before I go full lecture, you never wanna see me go full lecture.  As I was saying Pinkie was doing . . . whatever this morning in the park when she saw a bright light and a, as Lyra Heatstrings called him,human fall out and he got knocked out.  The human is male and I'm not at liberty to tell you his past. Back on track his name is Connor and he's an assassin.  I don't know what to do.  Is he dangerous? Not to us, I don't think anyway.  I think it would be best if you came and met him so HE can explain.  It feels so good to invite you to Ponyville.  So whenever you can spare a day or so, I would like you to come meet him.

The new Princess,

Twilight Sparkle.

Post Script: Can you say hi to Luna for me.  And Spike says hi, to you and luna

"Does this mean what we think It means?" Luna inquired.

"Well for the must part yes, yes it does."  Her grin, if it was even possible, grew wider.  "The spell worked."  Celestia was dive hugged by Luna and she fell down with a 'EEEP'.  Just then one of the guards walked in.

"Princess Luna, are you ready to start night- court." He looked down at the princesses and suddenly his face decided to do it's best impression of a tomato. The Luna was in A very compromising position on top of Celestia and by on top I mean her face was buried in celestia's crotch.  "Ummmmm. D- do y-y-y-you n-need a minute."

"No, no tis quite alright.  Just give us a a minute before thou sends anypony in", she said before standing up and returning to her throne. "Hem hem . . . Ummm That, uhhh that never happened. . . Agreed?"

"Y-Yeah we agree.  Why don't you go reply to Twilight?" Luna suggested.

"Okay"

*BURP* "Twilight! Reply's here!" Spike yelled up at twilight.

She trotted downstairs. "Ah thank you, now time for bed. After all a little dragon needs his sleep." She floated Spike and the letter upstairs in her magic. five minutes later, when Spike was finally asleep, Twilight opened the letter.

Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.  I think I will come to see this Connor.  I will be there on the morrow at, say twelve thirty- ish. I don't doubt that it is he is dangerous but that is to be expected, he isan assassin.  I have just been informed that Luna says hi and she will be accompanying me on this venture.  Do not worry yourself one bit about the courts (Night and Day).  There are never any important issues just nobles trying to squirm their way into more money. So I will be there tomorrow around twelve thirty or so.

With regards,

Princess Celestia

Post Script: How many gosh darned times do I have to tell you this.  Seeing as you are a princess now, there is no need to address me as Princess Celestia.  Just Celestia will do, I tells ya, ya hooligan (just kidding, Just Kidding)

"Oh yeah, I can finally say I invited Princess Celestia here.  I Just hope nothing goes wrong."

She had no idea how wrong the correctly wrong answer was correct making it wrong witch just solidify the correctness of it.  But if that's wright than what will happen to our dawg Connor. Oh this is wrong on so many levels.
