The Return of the Prince?

Starbound pushed open the grand doors and walked in with Fluttershy close behind.

"I would like an audience with the princesses" said Starbound as he confidently walked up to the gaurds and bowed

"Well, who may I ask is requesting this audience" said Princess Celestia

"Starbound Knight of the Everfree Kingd-" but as Starbound made eye contact with Celestia he noticed how she looked just like his mother.

"MOTHER!" Starbound cried out as he ran toward the Princess

The gaurds quickly restrained Starbound but payed no attention to his broken winh

"AHHHHHHHHHHH" Starbound cried out in pain

"(Gasp) Release him at once!" yelled Celestia

"Are you alright" asked Celestia

"I'll be fine" said Starbound as he slowly stood up

"Princess, this colt claims to be your brother and his story seems to make out, he was trapped in a state of tempural gravitation while in outer space but there's a spell that can send him back with a strong enough magic source." said Twilight as she gave the book to Celestia to inspect

"Hmmm, I'm sorry Starbound, Fluttershy, Twilight but a spell of that magnitude would take magical strength even greater than mine and Princess Luna's" explained the Princess. At that moment Starbound sat down and stared blankly at the ground while Spike Twilight and Fluttershy sat around him to comfort him.

"It's ok bud, we'll help you fit in to this time" said Spike

"Yeah we'll help you out don't worry" said Twilight

"You still have us Starbound, we can be your family too" said Fluttershy

Starbound looked up at them and smiled just before an idea popped into his head.

"Fluttershy, do you trust me?" asked Starbound as he stood up and looked into her eyes

"Yes... I do" answered Fluttershy

"Then please come with me" said Starbound

Starbound walked in front of the queen with Fluttershy close to him.

"As you know our mother and father were the old King and Queen, but something happened while I was gone and now I just want to know what happened to them... If you, me, and who ever raises the moon perform the spell together do you think we have a chance?" asked Starbound

"Hmmm... the... chances are slim... but not impossible... we shall try" declared Celestia

15 MINUTES LATER

Everyone who was needed to perform the spell was there and needless to say anxious as well.

"Is everyone ready" asked Starbound as he and Fluttershy stood between Luna and Celestia.

"But Star I thought you were to weak to use your magic" Fluttershy said

"I am... but when I'm with you I feel...magical" said Starbound as he looked into her eyes

As Luna and Celestia started the spell waves and waves of different color smoke filled the space around Starbound and Fluttershy.

"STAR I'm scared..." cried Fluttershy

"It's alright just take my hoof dear" said Starbound

As Fluttershy took his hoof, Starbound pulled her in close and looked into her eyes then they both leaned in and kissed. After kissing Fluttershy, Starbounds eyes glew white and the colorful smoke wrapped around him and imploded thus sending him back to the past. He arrived on the moon just to see himself flying away and he knew it would be to dangerous to fly back home to warn his parents he wouldn't be coming back. So instead he went to a grand unicorn who could at least help him somewhat.

"Starswirl The Bearded... I am Prince Starbound Knight of Castle Everfree... I need your help..."

BACK IN EQUESTRIA

"It worked, he must be home now" said Luna

"Good work sister" said Celestia

When the dust and smoke cleared Fluttershy saw that Starbound was gone. Spike and Twilight went to comfort there clearly distressed friend with hugs (Because, come on who doesn't love hugs).

"I'm sorry Twilight... but I... would like to be alone now..." said Fluttershy as she flew out of the castle window

"Hmmm, Princess what ever did happen to the old castle" asked Twilight

"Well, Twilight Sparkle it's not a good story but I suppose you are ready to know..." explained Celestia

As Fluttershy got back to her cottage Angel was waiting by her door to greet her, she fed the animals and sat underneath an apple tree and waited for the sun to go down. As she sat and watched the moon rise into the sky she saw a shooting star fly past the moon, somehow it reminded her of Starbound. She started sobbing when she thought about how much she'd miss Starbound and that she'd never see him again.

"Please don't cry..." said a hidden voice

"Who's there?" Fluttershy said as she looked around

"You look more beautiful when your not crying" said Starbound as he flew out of the tree above her

"Oh Star... I thought you went back to your own time and I was never gonna see you again and and and... I'm so glad your back" said Fluttershy

"I'm glad to be back... here with you" said Starbound in response

"Celestia and Luna said I could stay in Canterlot castle with them for now" Starbound explained

"Oh... well do you want to spend the night here... you know... for old time sake" asked Fluttershy in a shy voice

"I would be honored to do so" said Starbound as he bowed to Fluttershy

They both walked in to  Fluttershy's cottage and Starbound made tea for them both.

"So what happened in your time anyway?" asked Fluttershy

"My parents died at the mercy of an evil being and when I find him... I shall slay him" said Starbound who was both sad and determined

"Oh... my, I'm so sorry to hear that... what was his name? do you know?" asked Fluttershy out of curiousity

".... His name is... Discord the spirit of chaos" answered Starbound
