My Little Crazy Adventure
Meeting Her Royal Highness
Previous ChapterNext Chapter--------Meanwhile In The Library--------
"Where are they?"
Twilight was pacing back and forth felling slightly panicked over the fact that if they show up soon she'll seem like a liar to her princess and teacher.
"If Celestia gets here before they do-"
Suddenly the door burst open with Scion falling on the floor in a rush while Joseph calmly walked in.
"We're here! Are we late?" Scion asked getting up from the floor.
Twilight looked visibly relived.
"No thankfully not, but she'll be here any second."
Perfectly on cue there was a knock on the door.
"Oh that should be her!"
Twilight opened the door and in came Celestia her very presents filling the room with a sort of warmth. Joseph approached her first with a small smile on his face. Knowing Joseph, Scion began to worry about what he was going to do.
"Your majesty."
He stopped in front of her and went to one knee to show respect, he then proceeded to take one of her front hooves in his hand and kiss the top of it.
"I've been awaiting the day I got to meet you and I must say, word do no justice to describe your beauty."
Twilight and Celestia were both very confused (Celestia mostly faltered) as to what just happened, Scion on the other hand simply face-palmed.
"What...the hell?" He mumbled, slightly disgusted. Sucking up wasn't something he ever did, but apparently Joseph has no problem with it... "Uh...that's just an custom we have for royalty where we're from....except that we don't have them anymore..."
"Doesn't mean, I shouldn't pay my respects."
Scion sighed, shaking his head,
"Doesn't mean you should do it like that either....."
Joseph looked back to Celestia.
"Anyways I'm sure you have plenty to do so please let me explain, you see me and my friend have been transported to this beautiful land by unknown people and unknown means, now I for one am fine with this but my friend here wants to head back home for reasons I'm sure you can understand. Now Twilight here said that she would try to find a way to get us back but I'm sure you know as well as I that she may need help even is she is very powerful. So who else to turn to then the most powerful of alicorns. No offense to your sister, of course..."
"Joseph and his power of sucking up..." Scion thought,
"I will admit...it's a little pathetic, but he is trying to get you home!" Eve thought back, Scion almost yelled out loud,
"Eve? Your alright?"
"Yeah....my body's still in bad shape but, I'm able to talk to you again at least..."
Scion could have sworn he heard a nervous laugh, what was exactly funny? She took a deadly spell head on and disappeared out of sight, the boy almost thought he was the reason she got killed. He was relieved and worried, but decided not to say anymore,
"As long as your alright now...try not to talk to me too much, the ponies around here might get suspicious..."
Scion put his attention back to Joseph flattering the princess,
"Now all complement aside I want to ask you. Can you get my friend home?"
Celestia had to think about everything she was just told.
"This Joseph certainly is a strange one. Though he is a gentlecolt and to the point hmm.."
After a few silent moments she spoke.
.
"I cannot make any promises but I'll see what I can do. It may take some time though, Even if I have my best and brightest unicorns help find something."
Joseph nodded and smiled.
"Thank you princesses all I can ask is that you try."
She was about to leave but she turned around and asked.
"By the way, how did you know about my sister?"
"Well think about it there's a princess that controls the sun so there has to be one to control the moon, and as for the gender well that was just a lucky guess, oh and when you get back can you tell her I said hello?"
"I'll make sure she gets the message."
When the sun goddess was gone Joseph turned to Scion.
"Well that went well."
"..." Scion blinked with the irritated look that was growing on him,
"What? It did, didn't it?"
Scion turned away and glared, irritated to the side,
"You really know how to make a situation a lot more awkward then it needs to be...you know that?"
Joseph put a cocky smile on.
"I don't know about awkward but I do know how to make thing speed up, besides now we look good to the princess."
Joseph began to walk out the door.
"Well I'm going to Pinkie's you do what you want, and thinks for calling Celestia over Twilight!"
Twilight blinked a few times only hearing the word thanks.
"Oh, your welcome!"
Scion found no significance staying in the Library either and left with a very plain, 'goodbye'
Twilight was left standing there for a good 5 minutes thinking about what Joseph had said and did.
"I didn't think he was like that at all, and it was strange how Scion didn't even try to help in getting himself back home.."
She let the thought linger in her mind as she headed up to her bedroom to call it a night.
Scion stood at the hill just beyond the entrance of Ponyville again. There was ash on the grass that left deadly, pungent smells as he pasted. Scion thought hard to himself as he moved away from the previous battle area,
"I'm being hunted, and all because of this necklace..." He knew so little about the golden accessory, it had images of his Mom and who he thought could be his Dad. There was a pony spirit inside, that knew about him. Then these cloaked guys came out and wanted it...that proved he shouldn't give it up. There is some reason why he has this and should keep it away from them. He didn't have the slightest idea what they'd want with it anyway. "No reason to think to hard abo-"
CRACK
"Oh crap."
Scion turned on his heels after hearing a stick breaking. At first worried it was someone else that wanted to do him harm, but he visibly relaxed seeing it was only Joseph.
"What do you want?"
Joseph smiled and scratched his neck while.
"Well after yesterday I wanted to know where you decide to go for the night.. and I got to say good choice, nothing beats laying under the stars... well almost nothing."
Joseph dropped his smile noticing something for the first time.
"Hey what's with the burn marks on the floor?"
Scion turned back around, dodging the question and looking up again.
"You don't need to know..." He said softly,
Joseph not wanting to get on Scion's bad side put the question aside.
"Alright but I hope you can tell me later."
Joseph took a seat and looked up to the sky.
"Hey Scion?"
"Yea?"
"Why do you think we got sent here?"
"What do you mean?"
Joseph stood back up.
"Well I mean think about it, these strange people with the abilities to send us to another universe of all the choices they decide to send us to Equestria. The land known for being friendly and happy most, if not all of the time."
Sitting down Joseph continued.
"And we could have been tossed to some hellish universe to be killed almost instantly, or an empty space of nothingness forever, but no instead we're here. Why do you think that's so?"
"I think we were just lucky." Scion responded, "I see no reason we were sent here personally..."
"I guess your right. I just hope our luck keeps up, at least until you can get home."
Joseph looked to Scion and noticed something sticking out of his pocket.
"Hey what's that?"
"What's what?"
Scion reached into his pocket and pulled out his GBA.
"How did this get here...I thought I left it at home, well now I have something to kill time with."
He tried to turn it on but to no avail.
"Great the batteries are dead."
Joseph had an idea.
"Can I see that?"
"Yea, here, can't use it anyways."
Joseph pocketed the mini entertainment system.
"I'll see if I can get Twilight to help us both out with our power problems tomorrow."
Both were quiet as the sun set and the moon came up.
"Well I guess I'll go to Pinkie's for the night, you sure you don't want to come along? I can have Pinkie be quiet for the night if you want."
Scion thought for a moment on that based on what happened the other night he decided.
"The fact that your asking makes me think there's a reason you want me to....What is it?"
"Come on Scion, you sleep outside why would I need a reason to ask besides that, just trying to look out for my friend."
Joseph was speaking honestly, not wanting him to be in any trouble.
"The burn mark was the dead-giveaway for something wrong. Even if I can't force you to come I can invite you over."
Joseph paused looking back at the raising moon.
"I got to go soon, you coming or not?"
Scion thought quickly, it was for his and Pinkie's safety,
"I'll have to politely decline that..."
Joseph sighed.
"Alright then I'll see ya tomorrow. let's meet outside of Pinkie's okay?"
Scion nodded and watched as his friend slid down the hill to Ponyvile. He turned away to look at the moon, it always was breath taking to him. Something about it was particularly interesting, he just didn't know what. For hours, he could watch it like a T.V. set, there wasn't a thing he needed to know about the moon; except why he felt like someone was watching over him as he was doing with the circular, gray rock. The more he thought about the more he thought he was crazy, No one lives on the moon and aliens aren't real. He decided to enjoy the sight and try to forget about what had been happening.....for now...
--------The Next Morning--------
Scion woke up to the sun beaming on his face not sure when he fell asleep. The boy sighed and forced his legs to move. Quickly going to Sugar Cube Corner, for once it was quiet in town.
"GOOD MORNING EQUESTRIA!"
Of course is wouldn't last long due to Joseph's nature.
"Oh hey Scion, I'll be right down!"
Joseph was talking out of the front window in Pinkie's room.
"Who's that Joseph?"
Pinkie was heard from the room. Joseph disappeared into the room voice still audible.
"It's Scion, were going to go out and talk to Twilight."
"That sounds fun! Can I come along?"
"I'll ask him."
Joseph went back to the widow.
"You don't mind if Pinkie comes along, right?"
"Not really..." Scion yawned, perhaps it had been to early for him to wake up, too late now though,
Joseph turned back to Pinkie.
"He said yes."
"Alright!"
Pinkie came out of the window.
"We'll be right down!"
In a few moments both Pinkie and Joseph were out the door and heading to Twilight's.
"Let's go!"
