Once peach punch turned two, she changed forever

Peach punch, a earth pony mare, loved working on her peach farm. She had become closed off of sorts, working there for so long she barely talked to ponies. Unlike her friend, festal, she stayed home a lot. Only going out for Cretan things. Festal one day had made her come with her to the forest to gather things for the party she was planing. They meet with something amazing, and dangerous beound belief.

The Cave

She scoffed at this, trying to get her self out of the ropes she was in.

"I will never.. you hear me? EVER be the bride of a dragon." this wasn't true. she would be if she had know said dragon for a while. But she would never marry one just because she was told.

"Typical pony. Thinks all dragons will destroy their homes, and hurt them. Its not true for all of us, most of us are peaceful. The king only wants love, he may be a beast, but true beauty can come from him." The dragon said. He didn't understand why ponies did this, he and most of the kingdom he lived in where peaceful until threatened.

"Well... if I could... meet this king... maybe I could give it a chance..." she said, truly feeling sorry for the king. "On one condition... I will not be treated as a slave. I will be treated as a normal pon- dragon." she said, she tried to stand up, her hair falling on her shoulder.

"The king will be pleased you agreed to meet him." the dragon untied her. "your condition will be met, as well as one other." he said.

She nodded, and stood her self up. "I will meet him, and get to know him. I will know him before I marry him. When I truly love him, I will agree to the marriage." She looked straight at the dragon.

"The king won't like this, but he wants you to be happy. So we will tell him this." the dragon said, leading the pony through the cave.

They walked through a cave, she had a rope around her neck that he was leading her with. She looked around, seeing hoof prints in blood on the wall. She was about to speak up about the rope, but seeing this, made her quiet. The dragon had two other dragons beside him. She looked at them, seeing the light that shone in front of them. She tried looking around them to see where they where going, but they where to tall. The dragons led her to the hive, a giant cavern in the earth. She looked at all the dragons around, doing different things, working, and even fighting. One building came out from the rock, a huge castle she assumed belonged to the king. The reasonable dragon that had captured her was nodded by a different, rougher looking dragon, who took the rope and led her down to the main street of the hive.

"where are you taking me?" Peach spoke loud so he could hear. She looked around, dragons staring at her. She wasn't welcome here, and they knew this. She knew this as well, and hung her head down to avoid there stares.

"The king wants you in his home today. He is eager to meet you." the scared and beaten dragon spoke with a rough voice.

She had no idea why a king among dragons wanted her as a bride. He had all the power he needed. Why would he need a bride? They arrived at the front of the castle, and the guards opened the gates. They walked into the front room, a claw carved cavern in the hard rock, steps leading to the rooms above. She looked around at the dragon guards that stood beside the carpet that lead to the steps. They walked up the steps, that lead to a throne room. A huge dragon sat, a red cape on his back. The crown that sat on his head incrusted gems.

"Hello dear, I am king Tavurth."

The King Among Dragons

She looked at the enormous dragon that stood before her. His wings large, his claws big enough to kill her in one foul swipe. She didn't want to answer the king, but she knew if she didn't he might get upset.

"Hello sir. I'm peach punch." she spoke calmly, hopping he couldn't tell the fear she had. "I'm sure you heard my conditions?" she said, looking at the rope around her neck.

"Yes. Guards! Untie her." he spoke, calmly.

They untied the rope, allowing her to move freely. She looked around the massive throne room. She then looked at him, straight in the eye.

"Why am I here? When can I go home?" she said to him. She wondered how long she was out, and if any pony was looking for her.

Festi ran back to the orchard, to find the farm pony that peach rented the land her farm was on. She ran faster than she ever had. Thoughts of what happened to her friend, and who did it. When she got to the house, she banged on the door, tears running down her face.

"HELP ME! PLEASE MY FRIEND IS MISSING!" she waled. She banged on the door even more. "PLEASE SHE JUST DISAPPEARED! SOME THING TOOK HER!" she screamed.

The orange farm pony opened the door seeing the wreck of a pony in front of her. "calm down sugar cube, tell me what happened" she spoke calmly helping her up.

The pony helped her inside, trying to calm her. They talked about the incident, Festi trying to keep up the air of positivity she always had, but to no avail. After hours of going through the whole thing again, again, and again, apple jack decided they needed to go look for her. She suited up, as did Festi, and they headed out.

"Do you think we'll find her?" Festi said, not sure about her self.

"I don't know sugar cube... but we can try" apple jack said, not even her honesty could prevail. She was lying of corse. She was just as scared as Festi.

They walked through the fields. Oblivious as to the danger that lied ahead in the dark, dense, everfree.

Sunny

The day was bright, and the summer air smelled of blossom and daises. Peach layed under her favorite tree, half asleep. She cherished days like this, there weren't many like them she had left. Her mother had always told her when the day was sunny and bright, she was to tell the ones she loved "i love you!" as much as she could. Her mother called these days, "the day of forgiving". She sighed, hearing festi calling her.

"Peach! Peach come on you promised!" she called out to her friend of manny years.

"Hold on, festi." she got up, her bangs covered most of her eye, she puffed it out of the way.

"There you are peach. come on lets go!" she smiled, and headed down the path, followed by a very less than happy peach.

They went into the forest, picking up leaves and sticks. A ruffle came from a bush,peach looked at it, then at festi. Festi gulped, nodding at her. Peach moved the bush, finding a small squirrel. She sighed of relief. After about three hours they had gotten all they needed. They began walking out of the forest. Peach smiled, know in she could scare her friend some how.

"are you sure we're safe out here? I heard dragons and dark forces live in here!!" she smirked seeing her friend scared.

"peach stop that. you know I hate it when you do that." festi told her friend. "oh but festi! its true. I saw nightmare moon in here once." she smiled. "Peach you did not. I hate it when you lie" festi turned to her but she had dissapered. Peach had been knocked out by something, and dragged away.

She woke up hours later in a cave, water dropped in her eye. "where the hell am I?" something much lager than her had left its tracks in the floor. "Where am I!?" she shouted, hoping some pony, or something would hear her. A beast unlike anything she had seen slowly came out of the darkness. "don't be afraid dear. your safe with me." it creaked out. "who the hell are you? what are you? where am I?!" she asked the creature. It put its claw to her mouth, and smiled. "not a word out of you. You are to be my bride, and you are not allowed out of this cave. got it?" she spit on him. "I will never marry you. Never." It scratched her cheek. It still wouldn't let its face out of the shadows.

"you will be the bride of the dragon king. And you will never live to see the light of day."
