Shining had a look of grieve and looked at Stella. "Follow me", said Shining Shining and Stella walked to a room full of photo albums and other memories. "What is this place?", asked Stella "The memory room", replied Shining levitating a book towards him He opened the book to the picture of him and Cadence on their wedding day. "Who's that?", asked Stella "That's your mom", explained Shining "That's my mom? She's so pretty" "Yeah, her name was Princess Mi Amoré Cadenza" "That's a really long name" "Yeah, but we called her Cadence for short" "What happened to her?" "She…passed…after she brought you into the world" "She did?" "Yup, you would've loved her. She sees beauty in everything" "Even to the most ugliest creatures?"

"That went well", said Shining Ch.3 Sister Bonding TimeStella Nova galloped through the hall, until she stopped at Crystal's room. She knocked on her door. "Crystal?", called Stella She opened the door and saw that her room was a mess. She had books all over the place and there was moldy food everywhere. Stella saw her older sister performing a spell. "Hey Crystal", greeted Stella "Aw", yelled Crystal Suddenly, the magic projectile shot out of Crystal's horn and landed on a desk lamp. Thus turning it into a sandwich. "Great", said Crystal "Now you turned my lamp into a sandwich" "It's a pretty tasty lamp if you ask me", complimented Stella eating the sandwich "Give me that", ordered Crystal levitating it towards her and turning it back into a lamp "What do you want?" "Well, Daddy was wondering if your gonna eat dinner with us?", asked Stella "Just tell dad to bring my dinner to my room" "Ok" Stella started to walk away, but she stopped. "Whatcha workin on?", asked Stella "Spells", explained Crystal "Can I help?" "You wanna help me with spells?" "Why not?" "Ok kid, you can help?" "YAY" The two sisters worked on spells together until they decided to sit and chat. "Crystal?" "Yeah kid?" "Do you hate me?" "Why would you think that?" "Because every time I try to talk to you, you tell me to go away" Crystal took a deep breath. "I don't hate you" "You don't? Then why are you mean to me?" "It's because I have this thing called depression" "What's depression?" "It's when your sad all the time, and you constantly wanna be alone" "What caused your depression?" "Our Mom's death. It reminded me that we can't live forever. So I spend everyday in my room studying spells to see if any of them can make me immortal" "What does immortal mean?" "It's the ability to live forever. Alicorns like you, Skyla, and Brave have that ability" "What about unicorns like you and daddy?" "Im afraid were not immortal" "Im sorry. Do you know what you should do?" "What?" "You should have fun, and quit worrying about dying" "That'll be the day when I grow wings" "C'mon give it a try" Suddenly, Brave Heart walked in the room. "Dinner's ready girls", said Brave "Crystal, are you gonna eat in your room again?" "Actually, I think Im gonna eat with the family today" Brave smiled and walked out the door.

"Let me guess", said Skyla "Brave woke you up?" "Yup", replied Stella The girls walked into the kitchen and saw Crystal making breakfast. "Morning girls", greeted Crystal "Crystal? Since when do you make breakfast?", asked Skyla "Well, Dad had to leave early for royal stuff", explained Crystal putting eggs and toast on a couple of plates and giving them to the girls "So he asked me to make breakfast" "What kind of royal stuff?", asked Stella eating her toast "Something about King Sombra and the changeling queen Chrysalis being married", explained Crystal eating her eggs "Really?", asked Skyla looking up "Yeah and something about their evil spawns…I don't know", replied Crystal "I tuned him out while he was explaining it to me" The three fillies ate their breakfast until it was time to leave.

"Here I'll walk you to your class", offered Skyla "Thanks", replied Stella They kept walking until they reached the kindergarden class. "Nervous?", asked Skyla "Nope", replied Stella "That's my girl", said Skyla hugging her "Ok kid, have fun" "Thanks Sky" Skyla walked away. When Stella walked in the room, she saw a bunch of foals socializing. She decided to sit in a desk and read. "Hi there", greeted a voice from behind Stella turned around and saw a lime green crystal unicorn filly with a green mane. "Greetings", replied Stella "Are you a princess?", asked the filly "How can you tell?" "Well you have wings and a horn, so I figured" "Well, your correct" "Really? That's so cool" "Yeah, I guess" "Im Esmeralda, by the way", introduced Esmeralda holding out a hoof "But you can call me Esmy for short" "Nice to meet you Esmy", replied Stella shaking her hoof "I'm Stella Nova" "Hey is this seat taken?", asked another voice The two fillies turned their heads and saw an orange pegasus colt with a red and yellow mane. "No", replied Stella "Thanks", said the colt sitting down "The name's Firelock" "Im Stella Nova, and this is Esmeralda or Esmy for short", introduced Stella "I couldn't help but notice that your coat isn't crystaly", said Esmy "Oh that's because Im from Cloudsdale", explained Firelock "Cool", replied Stella "Yeah, my dad just became a royal guard", explained Firelock "So we had to move to the Crystal Empire" "No way", said Stella "My Daddy's the captain of the Royal Guards" "Really? That's so cool", complimented Firelock "So how are you liking the Empire?", asked Esmy "Pretty good", replied Firelock "It's really bright though" "Yeah, you get use to it", replied Stella The three foals laughed until they heard laughter. They turned their heads and saw a couple of fillies surrounding a red crystal unicorn colt with a black mane with a yellow and orange streak. Stella started to blush. "Who is he?", asked Stella "That's my twin brother Jasper", explained Esmy Jasper walked by the group and winked at Stella. Stella started to blush madly. When Firelock saw this, he started to get angry. Then, a purple crystal earth pony mare with a red mane and a piece of chalk as her cutie mark walked in. Everypony walked "Hello there children", introduced the mare "My name is Ms. Shine, and I'll be your teacher this year" Ms. Shine explained class rules and other information for about an hour. Then it was gym class. Stella and Firelock walked to the aerial field and saw a bunch of foals. They started talking amongst each other until a crystal pegasus mare walked in. She was grey with a black mane with a rock with wings as her cutie mark "Good afternoon kids", introduced the mare "Im Ms. Hard Feather and I will teach you everything you need to know about flying and excercise. Now let's get started with an obstacle. I want all of you to fly a lap, through those cloud hoops in under two minutes. Any questions?" Esmy raised her hoof. "Yes, Esmeralda?", asked Ms. Hard Feather "What if were not pegasi?", asked Esmy "Than you can do it on land", explained Ms. Hard Feather "Who's first?" Firelock raised his hoof. "Ok Firelock, your up first", said Ms. Hard Feather Firelock flew through the cloud hoops with great speed. "50.6 seconds", announced Ms. Hard Feather "Nice job Firelock" Everypony started cheering as he landed. "Great job dude", complimented Stella giving him a hoof bump "Thanks", replied Firelock blushing "Who's next?", asked Ms. Hard Feather "Me me me", cheered Stella raising her hoof "Ok Stella Nova, go ahead", replied Ms. Hard Feather "C'MON STELLA YOU CAN DO IT", cheered Esmy "Yeah, what she said", added Firelock blushing Stella flapped her wings, but she was not in the air. she flapped her wings again. She got a little bit of air, but she fell back down afterwords. "Were waiting Stella", said Ms. Hard Feather Stella flew up to the cloud hoop. She was doing great until her wings stopped flapping and she landed on a hoop. The hoop couldn't hold her wait so it disappeared and she fell to the ground. Everpony stared at her. "What a lozer", said a magenta crystal pegasus with a lavender mane "SPARKLE WIND", scolded Ms. Hard Feather Everypony laughed at Stella as she walked back to her friends. Ms. Hard Feather blew her whistle, and everypony fell silent. "You ok?", asked Firelock "Yeah", replied Stella After Gym they had Magic class. Stella, Esmy, and Firelock walked in the class room and saw a silver crystal unicorn stallion with a purple mane with a star with a beaker as his cutie mark. "Greetings students", greeted the stallion "My name is Mr. Sterling Silver, but you can call me Mr. Sterling. Let's start this school year off with a spell project. I want you guys to perform a growth spell. And for non unicorns, a growth serum. Now grab a flower pot, beaker, and spell book and get started" Esmy started performing a spell and she grew a flower. "Nice job Esmy", complimented Stella "Thanks", replied Esmy "Now you try" Stella tried to perform a spell on the flower pot. She grew a flower bud, but it turned into a cupcake. "A cupcake?", asked Esmy "I was hungry", explained Stella eating the cupcake At another table, Jasper performed a spell and he grew a rose. He walked over to Stella and gave it to her. "Here", said Jasper "A beautiful flower for a beautiful filly" "Thank you", replied Stella blushing Firelock was making a potion while he was watching Stella. When he saw her blushing, he got angry and dropped a liquid potion in the beaker. Suddenly, it exploded, and smoke was everywhere. Mr. Sterling walked up to Firelock. "And that students, is what not to do whenyou make a potion", explained Mr. Sterling After a couple more lessons, school was over. Stella, Esmy, and Firelock, walked outside. Skyla and a gold crystal earth pony filly with a yellow mane with a diamond ring as her cutie mark. "Hey Stell-Bell", greeted Skyla "SKYLA", cheered Stella hugging her "You remember my friend Golden Necklace, right?", asked Skyla refering to the golden earth pony filly "Oh yeah, hi Goldie", greeted Stella "Hey Stell", replied Golden Necklace "Well, my mom's here. Later Sky" She walked to her mom. "So Stella who are your friends?", asked Skyla "This is Firelock, Jasper, and Esmeralda", introduced Stella "Esmy for short", added Esmy "You must be Skyla?" "You know who I am?", asked Skyla "Yeah, Stella keeps talking about how a great sister you are", explained Firelock "Aw Stell", replied Skyla hugging her "C'mon , Dad's waiting for us" "Ok bye guys", said Stella hugging them "Bye Stella", replied her friends Stella walked to her father with a smile on her face. Ch.5 Flying LessonsAfter school, Stella decided to talk to her father. She walked to his office and saw Shining Armor doing paperwork "Daddy?", said Stella "Oh hey Pumpkin", greeted Shining "What's up?" "Can I ask you something?" "Of course sweetie, what is it?" "Can you teach me how to fly?" "Teach you how to fly? When are you interested in flying?" "Well today at school, we had to do a flying obstacle course for gym. I couldn't do it cause I can't fly, so everypony laughed at me" "Im sorry sweetie. I wanna teach you, but I can't" "But why?" "Because, Daddy's working on a very important case" "Is it about King Sombra and Queen Chrysalis?" Shining had a shocked look on his face. "How'd you know?", asked Shining "Crystal told me", explained Stella "But I told her not to tell anypony" "She might've tuned you out. But I understand, you barely have time for me anyways" Shining started to feel guilt, but he shook it off. "Forget it Stella", said Shining "Your not guilt tripping me" "Fine", replied Stella "Then you leave me no choice. I'm gonna have to give you The Eyes" "That wont work on me either" "Oh yeah, let's see" Suddenly, Stella's eyes grew. Shining tried to look away, but it was no use. "Ok ok fine", said Shining "I'll teach you how to fly" "YAY", cheered Stella running out the door "Why do I always keep falling for that?!" Shining walked out of his office and saw his daughter trying to fly. "Where do we start?", asked Stella "To the kitchen", said Shining They walked to the kitchen. "Now what?", asked Stella "Climb on the counter", ordered Shining Stella climbed up on the counter. She started to get confused. "What does this have to do with flying?", asked Stella "Do you trust me?", asked Shining "What?" "Do you trust me?" "Of course, Daddy" "Then I want you to jump off the counter and fly to the kitchen door and into my arms", explained Shining walking to the kitchen door and holding out his arms "Ok" Stella started flapping her wings. At first, she started to float, but fell on the counter. She tried again, and she succesfully flew off the counter. She flew into her father's hooves. "I DID IT DADDY", cheered Stella "I DID IT" "You sure did, now for Level 2" "But I can fly now" "No, your starting to fly. Come with me Stell-Bell" They walked into the hallway to the courtyard. Shining used his magic to levitate Stella to the top of the stairs. "Daddy, what are we doing now?", asked Stella "I want you to fly from the top of the stairs to my hooves", explained Shining "But won't I get hurt?" "No, trust me, you'll be fine" "Ok" Stella successfully flew from the top of the stairs to her father's hooves. "I DID IT", cheered Stella "Good job, now for Level 3" "Ok" They walked to the balcony of the crystal palace. Suddenly, Shining teleported to the front of the palace. "OK, NOW I WANT YOU TO FLY OFF THE BALCONY AND INTO MY HOOVES", called Shining "WHAT?! ARE YOU CRAZY?!", asked Stella "I WILL CATCH YOU" "BUT ITS WAY TO HIGH" "HEY THIS IS HOW I TAUGHT SKYLA, AND IS SHE DEAD?!" "…No" "BESIDES, YOUR MOM DID THE SAME THING BEFORE SHE DEFEATED KING SOMBRA WITH THE CRYSTAL HEART" "SHE DID?!" "YEAH, NOW JUMP" Stella was scared at first, but she jumped off the balcony. She flapped her wings and started flying. "WOO-HOO", cheered Stella performing a loop de doop Stella flew down to her father and gave him a hug. "Am I done now?", asked Stella "Yup, your done", replied Shining "YAY, I CAN FLY" "You sure can, sweetie" Ch.7 PlaydateOn a bright beautiful morning, Shining Armor was sleeping in his bed, until he was woken up by Stella jumping on his stomach. "DADDY DADDY WAKE UP", yelled Stella while jumping on his stomach "What is it sweetie?", asked Shining "It's Saturday!" "Ok…and?" "Today's my playdate" "Playdate?" "Yeah, yesturday your exact words were I could have my friends over for a playdate tomorrow" "But tomorrow is the playdate" "No, you said that yesturday, and it's been tomorrow. So, today is tomorrow" "When did you get so smart?", mumbled Shining "Ok sweetie, you can have a playdate" "YAY", cheered Stella flying out the room "She's turning into her mother" A couple hours later, Stella's friends came over. "Hey Stell", greeted Esmy hugging her "Hey guys", replied Stella "Wow Stella, your place is beautiful…like you", complimented Jasper "Thanks", replied Stella blushing "Let me show you around" Stella and her friends walked around the castle, then they reached the training room and saw Brave Heart. "And this is the training room", explained Stella "Hey Stell-Bell", greeted Brave "Hey Brave", replied Stella "Guys, this is my big brother Brave Heart. Brave, these are my friends Firelock, Esmy, and Jasper" "Nice to meet you Brave Heart. Are you a royal guard?", asked Firelock" Cause your wearing armor" "Indeed I am", replied Brave "Wow, my dad's a royal guard too", said Firelock "How about I show you some sword tricks?", asked Brave "YAY", cheered the foals The four foals decided to watch Brave's sword tricks for a little bit. Then, they decided to go see Crystal Clear. "Crystal, are you in here?", asked Stella "Yeah", replied Crystal "Come on in" They walked in the room and saw Crystal trying to create spells. "Guys, this is my big sister Crystal Clear", introduced Stella "So, workin on spells?" "Yeah, wanna help?" "Sure", replied the foals "Ok, here I go", said Crystal while her horn started to glow She aimed her magic on Firelock, and he turned into a frog. "Hey turn me back", croaked Firelock "Whoops, sorry", apoligized Crystal turning him back into a pegasus "C'mon you guys, let's do something else", said Stella "Bye Crystal" The three foals ran outside to the Crystal Gardens and saw Skyla and Golden Necklace. "Hey Kids", greeted Skyla "Whats up?" "Were here to hangout in the gardens, you?", asked Stella "Well, Goldie and I are gonna go hangout at her house", replied Skyla "Seeya" Skyla and Goldie walked away. The four foals started to play in the garden. Jasper used his magic to levitate a flower in Stella's hair. Firelock watched jealously, until Esmy pulled him into a bush. "Esmy what are you doing?", asked Firelock "I know", replied Esmy "What do you know?" "You know I know" "I know you know what?" "I know you like Stella" "Shhhhh" "YOUR NOT EVEN DENYING IT! YOU DO LIKE HER" "Can you please be quiet, and how did you know?" "Well, everytime she talks to you, you blush. And when Jasper talks to her, you start to get jealous" "Ok fine…I like Stella, but how can I get her to like me?" "Just be yourself", explained Esmy giving him a crystal rose "And give her this" "Thanks Esmy", replied Firelock getting out of the bush Firelock walked up to a hill holding the rose. Stella and Jasper were there. Jasper just gave Stella a bouquet of flowers. "Aw Jasper", said Stella blushing "Their beautiful" "Just like you", replied Jasper "Now, there's something I've been meaning to ask you" "What is it?" "Will you…be my fillyfriend?" 'WHAT?!", thought Firelock "Oh Jasper…YES", replied Stella hugging him Firelock saw the whole thing. He droped the rose, and flew away heartbroken. "Firelock?", said Stella watching him fly away. Prologe: With Every Royal Death, Comes A New HopeIn the Crystal Empire, lived an alicorn princess named Mi Amore Cadenza (Or Cadence as everypony calls her) and her husband Prince Shining Armor. They lived a good life and had a couple of foals. The first foal is a 13 year old colt named Brave Heart. Brave is a white alicorn with a blue and yellow mane with a blue shield with red heart as his cutie mark. He wants to be a royal guard, just like his dad. The second foal is a 10 year old filly named Crystal Clear. Crystal is a white unicorn with a blue and silver mane with a couple pieces of crystal shards as her cutie mark. All she likes to is read books and study magic (Like a certain pony we know ;)). The third foal is a 3 year old filly named Skyla. Skyla is a hot pink alicorn with pink wings that fade to purple like her mom's, a purple and yellow mane. She's kind of a daddy's girl. Cadence is in the hospital about to give birth to her fourth foal. She was in a lot of pain. "It's ok honey", assured Shining Armor "You've done this three times you can do it a fourth" "SHUT UP SHINING", yelled Cadence Suddenly a doctor came in and performed a pain relief spell on her. Cadence started to calm down. "Your highness Im afraid we have some good news and bad news", explained the doctor "Whats the bad news?", asked Cadence "The bad news is…your in critical condition. And the foal might not be able to make it" Cadence and Shining gasped. "What's the good news?", asked Cadence "The good news is...I might be able to save it", replied the doctor Cadence had a relieved smile on her face. "But it involves you giving up your life", added the doctor "You mean I'll…die?", asked Cadence "Indeed" "Will I at least have time to say goodbye?" "After you give birth, you'll only have an hour left to live" Cadence thought about it for a moment. "I'll do it", said Cadence "What?", asked Shining "I'll do it", replied Cadence "I'll give you two some time to talk about it", said the doctor walking out the door "Cady, why would you do this?", asked Shining "Well, I can't let this little bundle of joy die after carrying it around for nine months", explained Cadence "But I'll miss you" "I know, but when Im up in Paradise...I will always think off you" "Ok...If thats what you want" The doctor walked back into the room. "So…have you two thought of a decision?", asked the doctor "Yes, I'll sacrifice myself for the foal", said Cadence After a couple hours of labor, Cadence has given birth to her foal. "It's a filly", said the doctor handing her the foal The foal was light pink with wings that fade to purple like her mom's. Her mane was hot pink with a blue streak in it. Then, Cadence's foals came in. "So what's the foal?", asked Brave Heart "It's a filly", announced Shining "What's her name?", asked Crystal Clear "We haven't thought of a name", said Cadence "But I kinda like…Stella Nova" "That's a great name", replied Shining A nurse came in and took Stella Nova to the nursery. "Kids, Im afraid I have something to tell you" said Cadence "I only have an hour left to live" "What?", asked Brave "It's true", said Shining "MOM YOU CAN'T DIE", cried Crystal hugging Cadence "YOUR THE ONLY PONY I CAN GO TO FOR HELP" "Im sorry Crystal", replied Cadence stroking her mane "But your an alicorn", said Crystal "Alicorns are supposed to be immortal" "They can still die from disease or critical injuries", explained Cadence "But at least you have your father" "sure", said Crystal silently Skyla climbed up on the bed. "Does mommy have to go?", asked Skyla "Yes sweetie", replied Cadence hugging her "Mommy, has to go" "Mom, I promise that when I become a Royal Guard, I'll dedicate all my battles to you", said Brave "Oh Brave, you make me so proud", replied Cadence hugging him The nurse brought Stella back in. "Would you kids mind stepping outside for a minute?", asked Shining "Sure Dad", said Brave The three young ponies walked out of the room. "Well this is it", said Shining "Yup", replied Cadence "Wait Cadence there's something I have to tell you" "What?" "Remember when we were little and your diary was missing from your bag, and I told you Twilight took it?" "Yeah" "That was actually me" "YOU TOOK MY DIARY?!" "We were 13, let it go" "Your right, I love you my Knight In Shining Armor" "I love you too Mi Amoré Cadenza" They shared a kiss. Cadence closed her eyes and stopped breathing. "Cadence?…CADENCE?!", yelled Shining "NOOOOOOOOOO" Stella woke up and started crying. Shining walked up to her and picked her up. "It's ok Stella, Daddy's here", said Shining rocking her back and forth "And I promise to take good care of you" "I promise" Ch.1 5 Years Later (Do you wanna build a Snowman?)5 Years Later The Crystal Empire was the same as ever. After Cadence passed, everypony was devastated. The kids had changed a lot. Brave Heart was now 18, and became a royal guard. Crystal Clear was 15, and had depression. Everyday, she would lock herself in her room. Skyla was 8, and she earned her cutie mark. It was a star with pink streamers, blue cloud, and a yellow moon. Stella Nova was now 5 years old. She woke up with a smile on her face. She looked out the window and saw that it had snowed. She looked out the window and saw that it was snowing. She ran out of her room an to the training room where she saw Brave Heart. "Hey Brave", greeted Stella "Morning Stella", replied Brave "Its snowing" "I can see that" "Do you wanna build a snowman?" "Sorry Stell-Bell, but Im training right now" "That's ok, have fun" Stella ran out of the room, and walked up to Crystal's bedroom door. She knocks on the door. "Hey Crystal", called Stella "Do you wanna build a snowman?" "GO AWAY STELLA", yelled Crystal "Ok bye", said Stella walking away with a frown on her face. She walked into the kitchen and saw Skyla eating cereal. "Hey Stella", greeted Skyla "Hi Sky", replied Stella They sat there quietly for a couple of seconds. "Skyla?" "Yeah" "Do you wanna build a snowman? C'mon let's go and play I never see you anymore Come out the door It's like you've gone away", sang Stella "Have you been watching Frozen?", asked Skyla "I might've" replied Stella "Carry on" "We use to be best buddies And now were not I wish you would tell me why Do you wanna build a snowman? It doesn't have to be a snowman" "Sure" "YAY" The two fillies grabbed their coats and went outside. They made a snowman and had a few laughs. "This is a great snowman", said Stella "Yeah, Mom would've loved it", replied Skyla "Sky?" "Yeah?" "Whatever happened to Mommy?" "Your gonna have to ask Daddy about that?" "Can't you tell me?" "Nope, sorry Stell" "Ok, I'll ask him" Stella walked back up to the castle to talk to her father Author's Note Im pretty sure you know where that song is from (And that I don't own it) If you don't…THEN YOU SHALL DIE BY A SHOVEL Ch.6 Firelock's DadThe next day, Stella showed her flying skills to her gym class. Ms. Hard Feather looked impressed. "Well done, Stella", complimented Ms. Hard Feather Everypony cheered for her. After school, Firelock, Stella, Esmy, and Jasper decided to talk while waiting for their parents. "HEY LOCKY", called a voice The four foals looked up and saw a blue pegasus stallion with a light blue mane with a light blue flame as his cutie mark. He was wearing Royal Guard armor. "Hey Dad", replied Firelock "Guys, this is my dad Blue Flame. Dad, these are my friends Jasper, Esmeralda-" "Esmy", interupted Esmy "Esmy, and Stella Nova", introduced Firelock "Nice to meet you all", said Blue Flame "And you were right about that Stella filly, she is pretty" Jasper, Esmy, and Stella started to laugh while Firelock blushed madly. "Dad", scolded Firelock "Well, come on son", said Blue Flame "Lieutenant Blue Flame?", said a voice The voice came from Shining Armor. "Captain Shining Armor", greeted Blue Flame "What are you doing here?" "Im here to pick up my daughters", explained Shining "DADDY", cheered Skyla and Stella hugging him "As am I…but I have a son", said Blue Flame "Daddy, these are my friends Jasper, Esmy, and Mr. Blue Flame's son Firelock", introduced Stella "Nice to meet you, your majesty", said Firelock "As for you", replied Shining shaking his hoof "I can't believe it, your Prince Shining Armor", cheered Esmy acting like a fan girl "I think Im gonna faint" Esmy fainted and Jasper caught her. "Welp we better get going", said Blue Flame "It was nice meeting everyone. C'mon Locky" "Bye guys", said Firelock flying away with his dad "C'mon girls, let's go", said Shining "Ok Daddy", replied Stella "Bye Jasper and Esmy" Shining and his two daughters walked home.
Ch.2 About Your Mom…Stella walked into the throne room and saw her father doing royal duty. "Hey Daddy", greeted Stella "Oh hey Stella", replied Shining Armor "What's up?" "Can I ask you something?" "Sure, what is it?" "Whatever happened to Mommy?" Shining had a look of grieve and looked at Stella. "Follow me", said Shining Shining and Stella walked to a room full of photo albums and other memories. "What is this place?", asked Stella "The memory room", replied Shining levitating a book towards him He opened the book to the picture of him and Cadence on their wedding day. "Who's that?", asked Stella "That's your mom", explained Shining "That's my mom? She's so pretty" "Yeah, her name was Princess Mi Amoré Cadenza" "That's a really long name" "Yeah, but we called her Cadence for short" "What happened to her?" "She…passed…after she brought you into the world" "She did?" "Yup, you would've loved her. She sees beauty in everything" "Even to the most ugliest creatures?" "Exactly…Im sorry I had to tell you this. And Im sorry that she can't be in your life" Shining hugged Stella and kissed the top of her head. "It's ok Daddy", assured Stella hugging him "I have a Daddy who's better than a kajillion mommies" "Thanks pumpkin", replied Shining "I'm gonna go outside, wanna play with me?" "Sorry sweetie, I have royal stuff to cover" "Ok bye Daddy" Stella ran out of the memory room. "That went well", said Shining
Ch.3 Sister Bonding TimeStella Nova galloped through the hall, until she stopped at Crystal's room. She knocked on her door. "Crystal?", called Stella She opened the door and saw that her room was a mess. She had books all over the place and there was moldy food everywhere. Stella saw her older sister performing a spell. "Hey Crystal", greeted Stella "Aw", yelled Crystal Suddenly, the magic projectile shot out of Crystal's horn and landed on a desk lamp. Thus turning it into a sandwich. "Great", said Crystal "Now you turned my lamp into a sandwich" "It's a pretty tasty lamp if you ask me", complimented Stella eating the sandwich "Give me that", ordered Crystal levitating it towards her and turning it back into a lamp "What do you want?" "Well, Daddy was wondering if your gonna eat dinner with us?", asked Stella "Just tell dad to bring my dinner to my room" "Ok" Stella started to walk away, but she stopped. "Whatcha workin on?", asked Stella "Spells", explained Crystal "Can I help?" "You wanna help me with spells?" "Why not?" "Ok kid, you can help?" "YAY" The two sisters worked on spells together until they decided to sit and chat. "Crystal?" "Yeah kid?" "Do you hate me?" "Why would you think that?" "Because every time I try to talk to you, you tell me to go away" Crystal took a deep breath. "I don't hate you" "You don't? Then why are you mean to me?" "It's because I have this thing called depression" "What's depression?" "It's when your sad all the time, and you constantly wanna be alone" "What caused your depression?" "Our Mom's death. It reminded me that we can't live forever. So I spend everyday in my room studying spells to see if any of them can make me immortal" "What does immortal mean?" "It's the ability to live forever.

"You should have fun, and quit worrying about dying" "That'll be the day when I grow wings" "C'mon give it a try" Suddenly, Brave Heart walked in the room. "Dinner's ready girls", said Brave "Crystal, are you gonna eat in your room again?" "Actually, I think Im gonna eat with the family today" Brave smiled and walked out the door. Stella started walking out too. "Hey Stella", said Crystal pulling her into a hug "Thanks" "No problem sis", replied Stella hugging back

"Let me guess", said Skyla "Brave woke you up?" "Yup", replied Stella The girls walked into the kitchen and saw Crystal making breakfast. "Morning girls", greeted Crystal "Crystal? Since when do you make breakfast?", asked Skyla "Well, Dad had to leave early for royal stuff", explained Crystal putting eggs and toast on a couple of plates and giving them to the girls "So he asked me to make breakfast" "What kind of royal stuff?", asked Stella eating her toast "Something about King Sombra and the changeling queen Chrysalis being married", explained Crystal eating her eggs "Really?", asked Skyla looking up "Yeah and something about their evil spawns…I don't know", replied Crystal "I tuned him out while he was explaining it to me" The three fillies ate their breakfast until it was time to leave. "C'mon girls, time for school", said Crystal "I still can't believe it's my first day of school", cheered Stella "Yeah, sorry Dad couldn't be here", apologized Crystal "It's ok, your gonna be there, that's all that matters", assured Stella hugging her They walked through the Empire until they reached a medium sized building with foals running around. "Bye girls", said Crystal hugging them "Dad's gonna pick you two up after school" "Ok thanks Crystal", replied the two fillies Skyla and Stella walked in the building as Crystal walked away. "Here I'll walk you to your class", offered Skyla "Thanks", replied Stella They kept walking until they reached the kindergarden class. "Nervous?", asked Skyla "Nope", replied Stella "That's my girl", said Skyla hugging her "Ok kid, have fun" "Thanks Sky" Skyla walked away. When Stella walked in the room, she saw a bunch of foals socializing. She decided to sit in a desk and read. "Hi there", greeted a voice from behind Stella turned around and saw a lime green crystal unicorn filly with a green mane. "Greetings", replied Stella "Are you a princess?", asked the filly "How can you tell?" "Well you have wings and a horn, so I figured" "Well, your correct" "Really? That's so cool" "Yeah, I guess" "Im Esmeralda, by the way", introduced Esmeralda holding out a hoof "But you can call me Esmy for short" "Nice to meet you Esmy", replied Stella shaking her hoof "I'm Stella Nova" "Hey is this seat taken?", asked another voice The two fillies turned their heads and saw an orange pegasus colt with a red and yellow mane. "No", replied Stella "Thanks", said the colt sitting down "The name's Firelock" "Im Stella Nova, and this is Esmeralda or Esmy for short", introduced Stella "I couldn't help but notice that your coat isn't crystaly", said Esmy "Oh that's because Im from Cloudsdale", explained Firelock "Cool", replied Stella "Yeah, my dad just became a royal guard", explained Firelock "So we had to move to the Crystal Empire" "No way", said Stella "My Daddy's the captain of the Royal Guards" "Really? That's so cool", complimented Firelock "So how are you liking the Empire?", asked Esmy "Pretty good", replied Firelock "It's really bright though" "Yeah, you get use to it", replied Stella The three foals laughed until they heard laughter. They turned their heads and saw a couple of fillies surrounding a red crystal unicorn colt with a black mane with a yellow and orange streak. Stella started to blush. "Who is he?", asked Stella "That's my twin brother Jasper", explained Esmy Jasper walked by the group and winked at Stella. Stella started to blush madly. When Firelock saw this, he started to get angry. Then, a purple crystal earth pony mare with a red mane and a piece of chalk as her cutie mark walked in. Everypony walked "Hello there children", introduced the mare "My name is Ms. Shine, and I'll be your teacher this year" Ms. Shine explained class rules and other information for about an hour. Then it was gym class. Stella and Firelock walked to the aerial field and saw a bunch of foals. They started talking amongst each other until a crystal pegasus mare walked in. She was grey with a black mane with a rock with wings as her cutie mark "Good afternoon kids", introduced the mare "Im Ms. Hard Feather and I will teach you everything you need to know about flying and excercise. Now let's get started with an obstacle. I want all of you to fly a lap, through those cloud hoops in under two minutes. Any questions?" Esmy raised her hoof. "Yes, Esmeralda?", asked Ms. Hard Feather "What if were not pegasi?", asked Esmy "Than you can do it on land", explained Ms. Hard Feather "Who's first?" Firelock raised his hoof. "Ok Firelock, your up first", said Ms. Hard Feather Firelock flew through the cloud hoops with great speed. "50.6 seconds", announced Ms. Hard Feather "Nice job Firelock" Everypony started cheering as he landed. "Great job dude", complimented Stella giving him a hoof bump "Thanks", replied Firelock blushing "Who's next?", asked Ms. Hard Feather "Me me me", cheered Stella raising her hoof "Ok Stella Nova, go ahead", replied Ms. Hard Feather "C'MON STELLA YOU CAN DO IT", cheered Esmy "Yeah, what she said", added Firelock blushing Stella flapped her wings, but she was not in the air. she flapped her wings again. She got a little bit of air, but she fell back down afterwords. "Were waiting Stella", said Ms. Hard Feather Stella flew up to the cloud hoop. She was doing great until her wings stopped flapping and she landed on a hoop. The hoop couldn't hold her wait so it disappeared and she fell to the ground. Everpony stared at her. "What a lozer", said a magenta crystal pegasus with a lavender mane "SPARKLE WIND", scolded Ms. Hard Feather Everypony laughed at Stella as she walked back to her friends. Ms. Hard Feather blew her whistle, and everypony fell silent. "You ok?", asked Firelock "Yeah", replied Stella After Gym they had Magic class. Stella, Esmy, and Firelock walked in the class room and saw a silver crystal unicorn stallion with a purple mane with a star with a beaker as his cutie mark. "Greetings students", greeted the stallion "My name is Mr. Sterling Silver, but you can call me Mr. Sterling. Let's start this school year off with a spell project. I want you guys to perform a growth spell. And for non unicorns, a growth serum. Now grab a flower pot, beaker, and spell book and get started" Esmy started performing a spell and she grew a flower. "Nice job Esmy", complimented Stella "Thanks", replied Esmy "Now you try" Stella tried to perform a spell on the flower pot. She grew a flower bud, but it turned into a cupcake. "A cupcake?", asked Esmy "I was hungry", explained Stella eating the cupcake At another table, Jasper performed a spell and he grew a rose. He walked over to Stella and gave it to her. "Here", said Jasper "A beautiful flower for a beautiful filly" "Thank you", replied Stella blushing Firelock was making a potion while he was watching Stella. When he saw her blushing, he got angry and dropped a liquid potion in the beaker. Suddenly, it exploded, and smoke was everywhere. Mr. Sterling walked up to Firelock. "And that students, is what not to do whenyou make a potion", explained Mr. Sterling After a couple more lessons, school was over. Stella, Esmy, and Firelock, walked outside. Skyla and a gold crystal earth pony filly with a yellow mane with a diamond ring as her cutie mark. "Hey Stell-Bell", greeted Skyla "SKYLA", cheered Stella hugging her "You remember my friend Golden Necklace, right?", asked Skyla refering to the golden earth pony filly "Oh yeah, hi Goldie", greeted Stella "Hey Stell", replied Golden Necklace "Well, my mom's here. Later Sky" She walked to her mom. "So Stella who are your friends?", asked Skyla "This is Firelock, Jasper, and Esmeralda", introduced Stella "Esmy for short", added Esmy "You must be Skyla?" "You know who I am?", asked Skyla "Yeah, Stella keeps talking about how a great sister you are", explained Firelock "Aw Stell", replied Skyla hugging her "C'mon , Dad's waiting for us" "Ok bye guys", said Stella hugging them "Bye Stella", replied her friends Stella walked to her father with a smile on her face.
Ch.5 Flying LessonsAfter school, Stella decided to talk to her father. She walked to his office and saw Shining Armor doing paperwork "Daddy?", said Stella "Oh hey Pumpkin", greeted Shining "What's up?" "Can I ask you something?" "Of course sweetie, what is it?" "Can you teach me how to fly?" "Teach you how to fly? When are you interested in flying?" "Well today at school, we had to do a flying obstacle course for gym. I couldn't do it cause I can't fly, so everypony laughed at me" "Im sorry sweetie. I wanna teach you, but I can't" "But why?" "Because, Daddy's working on a very important case" "Is it about King Sombra and Queen Chrysalis?" Shining had a shocked look on his face. "How'd you know?", asked Shining "Crystal told me", explained Stella "But I told her not to tell anypony" "She might've tuned you out. But I understand, you barely have time for me anyways" Shining started to feel guilt, but he shook it off. "Forget it Stella", said Shining "Your not guilt tripping me" "Fine", replied Stella "Then you leave me no choice. I'm gonna have to give you The Eyes" "That wont work on me either" "Oh yeah, let's see" Suddenly, Stella's eyes grew. Shining tried to look away, but it was no use. "Ok ok fine", said Shining "I'll teach you how to fly" "YAY", cheered Stella running out the door "Why do I always keep falling for that?!" Shining walked out of his office and saw his daughter trying to fly. "Where do we start?", asked Stella "To the kitchen", said Shining They walked to the kitchen. "Now what?", asked Stella "Climb on the counter", ordered Shining Stella climbed up on the counter. She started to get confused. "What does this have to do with flying?", asked Stella "Do you trust me?", asked Shining "What?" "Do you trust me?" "Of course, Daddy" "Then I want you to jump off the counter and fly to the kitchen door and into my arms", explained Shining walking to the kitchen door and holding out his arms "Ok" Stella started flapping her wings. At first, she started to float, but fell on the counter. She tried again, and she succesfully flew off the counter. She flew into her father's hooves. "I DID IT DADDY", cheered Stella "I DID IT" "You sure did, now for Level 2" "But I can fly now" "No, your starting to fly. Come with me Stell-Bell" They walked into the hallway to the courtyard. Shining used his magic to levitate Stella to the top of the stairs. "Daddy, what are we doing now?", asked Stella "I want you to fly from the top of the stairs to my hooves", explained Shining "But won't I get hurt?" "No, trust me, you'll be fine" "Ok" Stella successfully flew from the top of the stairs to her father's hooves. "I DID IT", cheered Stella "Good job, now for Level 3" "Ok" They walked to the balcony of the crystal palace. Suddenly, Shining teleported to the front of the palace. "OK, NOW I WANT YOU TO FLY OFF THE BALCONY AND INTO MY HOOVES", called Shining "WHAT?! ARE YOU CRAZY?!", asked Stella "I WILL CATCH YOU" "BUT ITS WAY TO HIGH" "HEY THIS IS HOW I TAUGHT SKYLA, AND IS SHE DEAD?!" "…No" "BESIDES, YOUR MOM DID THE SAME THING BEFORE SHE DEFEATED KING SOMBRA WITH THE CRYSTAL HEART" "SHE DID?!" "YEAH, NOW JUMP" Stella was scared at first, but she jumped off the balcony. She flapped her wings and started flying. "WOO-HOO", cheered Stella performing a loop de doop Stella flew down to her father and gave him a hug. "Am I done now?", asked Stella "Yup, your done", replied Shining "YAY, I CAN FLY" "You sure can, sweetie"
Ch.7 PlaydateOn a bright beautiful morning, Shining Armor was sleeping in his bed, until he was woken up by Stella jumping on his stomach. "DADDY DADDY WAKE UP", yelled Stella while jumping on his stomach "What is it sweetie?", asked Shining "It's Saturday!" "Ok…and?" "Today's my playdate" "Playdate?" "Yeah, yesturday your exact words were I could have my friends over for a playdate tomorrow" "But tomorrow is the playdate" "No, you said that yesturday, and it's been tomorrow. So, today is tomorrow" "When did you get so smart?", mumbled Shining "Ok sweetie, you can have a playdate" "YAY", cheered Stella flying out the room "She's turning into her mother" A couple hours later, Stella's friends came over. "Hey Stell", greeted Esmy hugging her "Hey guys", replied Stella "Wow Stella, your place is beautiful…like you", complimented Jasper "Thanks", replied Stella blushing "Let me show you around" Stella and her friends walked around the castle, then they reached the training room and saw Brave Heart. "And this is the training room", explained Stella "Hey Stell-Bell", greeted Brave "Hey Brave", replied Stella "Guys, this is my big brother Brave Heart. Brave, these are my friends Firelock, Esmy, and Jasper" "Nice to meet you Brave Heart. Are you a royal guard?", asked Firelock" Cause your wearing armor" "Indeed I am", replied Brave "Wow, my dad's a royal guard too", said Firelock "How about I show you some sword tricks?", asked Brave "YAY", cheered the foals The four foals decided to watch Brave's sword tricks for a little bit. Then, they decided to go see Crystal Clear. "Crystal, are you in here?", asked Stella "Yeah", replied Crystal "Come on in" They walked in the room and saw Crystal trying to create spells. "Guys, this is my big sister Crystal Clear", introduced Stella "So, workin on spells?" "Yeah, wanna help?" "Sure", replied the foals "Ok, here I go", said Crystal while her horn started to glow She aimed her magic on Firelock, and he turned into a frog. "Hey turn me back", croaked Firelock "Whoops, sorry", apoligized Crystal turning him back into a pegasus "C'mon you guys, let's do something else", said Stella "Bye Crystal" The three foals ran outside to the Crystal Gardens and saw Skyla and Golden Necklace. "Hey Kids", greeted Skyla "Whats up?" "Were here to hangout in the gardens, you?", asked Stella "Well, Goldie and I are gonna go hangout at her house", replied Skyla "Seeya" Skyla and Goldie walked away. The four foals started to play in the garden. Jasper used his magic to levitate a flower in Stella's hair. Firelock watched jealously, until Esmy pulled him into a bush. "Esmy what are you doing?", asked Firelock "I know", replied Esmy "What do you know?" "You know I know" "I know you know what?" "I know you like Stella" "Shhhhh" "YOUR NOT EVEN DENYING IT! YOU DO LIKE HER" "Can you please be quiet, and how did you know?" "Well, everytime she talks to you, you blush. And when Jasper talks to her, you start to get jealous" "Ok fine…I like Stella, but how can I get her to like me?" "Just be yourself", explained Esmy giving him a crystal rose "And give her this" "Thanks Esmy", replied Firelock getting out of the bush Firelock walked up to a hill holding the rose. Stella and Jasper were there. Jasper just gave Stella a bouquet of flowers. "Aw Jasper", said Stella blushing "Their beautiful" "Just like you", replied Jasper "Now, there's something I've been meaning to ask you" "What is it?" "Will you…be my fillyfriend?" 'WHAT?!", thought Firelock "Oh Jasper…YES", replied Stella hugging him Firelock saw the whole thing. He droped the rose, and flew away heartbroken. "Firelock?", said Stella watching him fly away.
Prologe: With Every Royal Death, Comes A New HopeIn the Crystal Empire, lived an alicorn princess named Mi Amore Cadenza (Or Cadence as everypony calls her) and her husband Prince Shining Armor. They lived a good life and had a couple of foals. The first foal is a 13 year old colt named Brave Heart. Brave is a white alicorn with a blue and yellow mane with a blue shield with red heart as his cutie mark. He wants to be a royal guard, just like his dad. The second foal is a 10 year old filly named Crystal Clear. Crystal is a white unicorn with a blue and silver mane with a couple pieces of crystal shards as her cutie mark. All she likes to is read books and study magic (Like a certain pony we know ;)). The third foal is a 3 year old filly named Skyla. Skyla is a hot pink alicorn with pink wings that fade to purple like her mom's, a purple and yellow mane. She's kind of a daddy's girl. Cadence is in the hospital about to give birth to her fourth foal. She was in a lot of pain. "It's ok honey", assured Shining Armor "You've done this three times you can do it a fourth" "SHUT UP SHINING", yelled Cadence Suddenly a doctor came in and performed a pain relief spell on her. Cadence started to calm down. "Your highness Im afraid we have some good news and bad news", explained the doctor "Whats the bad news?", asked Cadence "The bad news is…your in critical condition. And the foal might not be able to make it" Cadence and Shining gasped. "What's the good news?", asked Cadence "The good news is...I might be able to save it", replied the doctor Cadence had a relieved smile on her face. "But it involves you giving up your life", added the doctor "You mean I'll…die?", asked Cadence "Indeed" "Will I at least have time to say goodbye?" "After you give birth, you'll only have an hour left to live" Cadence thought about it for a moment. "I'll do it", said Cadence "What?", asked Shining "I'll do it", replied Cadence "I'll give you two some time to talk about it", said the doctor walking out the door "Cady, why would you do this?", asked Shining "Well, I can't let this little bundle of joy die after carrying it around for nine months", explained Cadence "But I'll miss you" "I know, but when Im up in Paradise...I will always think off you" "Ok...If thats what you want" The doctor walked back into the room. "So…have you two thought of a decision?", asked the doctor "Yes, I'll sacrifice myself for the foal", said Cadence After a couple hours of labor, Cadence has given birth to her foal. "It's a filly", said the doctor handing her the foal The foal was light pink with wings that fade to purple like her mom's. Her mane was hot pink with a blue streak in it. Then, Cadence's foals came in. "So what's the foal?", asked Brave Heart "It's a filly", announced Shining "What's her name?", asked Crystal Clear "We haven't thought of a name", said Cadence "But I kinda like…Stella Nova" "That's a great name", replied Shining A nurse came in and took Stella Nova to the nursery. "Kids, Im afraid I have something to tell you" said Cadence "I only have an hour left to live" "What?", asked Brave "It's true", said Shining "MOM YOU CAN'T DIE", cried Crystal hugging Cadence "YOUR THE ONLY PONY I CAN GO TO FOR HELP" "Im sorry Crystal", replied Cadence stroking her mane "But your an alicorn", said Crystal "Alicorns are supposed to be immortal" "They can still die from disease or critical injuries", explained Cadence "But at least you have your father" "sure", said Crystal silently Skyla climbed up on the bed. "Does mommy have to go?", asked Skyla "Yes sweetie", replied Cadence hugging her "Mommy, has to go" "Mom, I promise that when I become a Royal Guard, I'll dedicate all my battles to you", said Brave "Oh Brave, you make me so proud", replied Cadence hugging him The nurse brought Stella back in. "Would you kids mind stepping outside for a minute?", asked Shining "Sure Dad", said Brave The three young ponies walked out of the room. "Well this is it", said Shining "Yup", replied Cadence "Wait Cadence there's something I have to tell you" "What?" "Remember when we were little and your diary was missing from your bag, and I told you Twilight took it?" "Yeah" "That was actually me" "YOU TOOK MY DIARY?!" "We were 13, let it go" "Your right, I love you my Knight In Shining Armor" "I love you too Mi Amoré Cadenza" They shared a kiss. Cadence closed her eyes and stopped breathing. "Cadence?…CADENCE?!", yelled Shining "NOOOOOOOOOO" Stella woke up and started crying. Shining walked up to her and picked her up. "It's ok Stella, Daddy's here", said Shining rocking her back and forth "And I promise to take good care of you" "I promise"
Ch.1 5 Years Later (Do you wanna build a Snowman?)5 Years Later The Crystal Empire was the same as ever. After Cadence passed, everypony was devastated. The kids had changed a lot. Brave Heart was now 18, and became a royal guard. Crystal Clear was 15, and had depression. Everyday, she would lock herself in her room. Skyla was 8, and she earned her cutie mark. It was a star with pink streamers, blue cloud, and a yellow moon. Stella Nova was now 5 years old. She woke up with a smile on her face. She looked out the window and saw that it had snowed. She looked out the window and saw that it was snowing. She ran out of her room an to the training room where she saw Brave Heart. "Hey Brave", greeted Stella "Morning Stella", replied Brave "Its snowing" "I can see that" "Do you wanna build a snowman?" "Sorry Stell-Bell, but Im training right now" "That's ok, have fun" Stella ran out of the room, and walked up to Crystal's bedroom door. She knocks on the door. "Hey Crystal", called Stella "Do you wanna build a snowman?" "GO AWAY STELLA", yelled Crystal "Ok bye", said Stella walking away with a frown on her face. She walked into the kitchen and saw Skyla eating cereal. "Hey Stella", greeted Skyla "Hi Sky", replied Stella They sat there quietly for a couple of seconds. "Skyla?" "Yeah" "Do you wanna build a snowman? C'mon let's go and play I never see you anymore Come out the door It's like you've gone away", sang Stella "Have you been watching Frozen?", asked Skyla "I might've" replied Stella "Carry on" "We use to be best buddies And now were not I wish you would tell me why Do you wanna build a snowman? It doesn't have to be a snowman" "Sure" "YAY" The two fillies grabbed their coats and went outside. They made a snowman and had a few laughs. "This is a great snowman", said Stella "Yeah, Mom would've loved it", replied Skyla "Sky?" "Yeah?" "Whatever happened to Mommy?" "Your gonna have to ask Daddy about that?" "Can't you tell me?" "Nope, sorry Stell" "Ok, I'll ask him" Stella walked back up to the castle to talk to her father Author's Note Im pretty sure you know where that song is from (And that I don't own it) If you don't…THEN YOU SHALL DIE BY A SHOVEL
Ch.6 Firelock's DadThe next day, Stella showed her flying skills to her gym class. Ms. Hard Feather looked impressed. "Well done, Stella", complimented Ms. Hard Feather Everypony cheered for her. After school, Firelock, Stella, Esmy, and Jasper decided to talk while waiting for their parents. "HEY LOCKY", called a voice The four foals looked up and saw a blue pegasus stallion with a light blue mane with a light blue flame as his cutie mark. He was wearing Royal Guard armor. "Hey Dad", replied Firelock "Guys, this is my dad Blue Flame. Dad, these are my friends Jasper, Esmeralda-" "Esmy", interupted Esmy "Esmy, and Stella Nova", introduced Firelock "Nice to meet you all", said Blue Flame "And you were right about that Stella filly, she is pretty" Jasper, Esmy, and Stella started to laugh while Firelock blushed madly. "Dad", scolded Firelock "Well, come on son", said Blue Flame "Lieutenant Blue Flame?", said a voice The voice came from Shining Armor. "Captain Shining Armor", greeted Blue Flame "What are you doing here?" "Im here to pick up my daughters", explained Shining "DADDY", cheered Skyla and Stella hugging him "As am I…but I have a son", said Blue Flame "Daddy, these are my friends Jasper, Esmy, and Mr. Blue Flame's son Firelock", introduced Stella "Nice to meet you, your majesty", said Firelock "As for you", replied Shining shaking his hoof "I can't believe it, your Prince Shining Armor", cheered Esmy acting like a fan girl "I think Im gonna faint" Esmy fainted and Jasper caught her. "Welp we better get going", said Blue Flame "It was nice meeting everyone. C'mon Locky" "Bye guys", said Firelock flying away with his dad "C'mon girls, let's go", said Shining "Ok Daddy", replied Stella "Bye Jasper and Esmy" Shining and his two daughters walked home.
