Dusk walked into the room and couldn’t help but wonder why all four of them were in one bed. he shrugged and threw open the curtains of the room, letting the light in. Four simultaneous groans.
“Those sound like hangover groans. Dare i ask what you four did last night?” Dusk said.
“Trust me...you don’t wanna know.” Twilight groaned.
“Fair enough. Chrystarium wanted to make sure you were alright, apparently you all left strangely.” Dusk said.
“Pfft...strangely sure is a nice way to put it...” Chrysalis said.
“Wasted was more like it.” Frostbite said.
“Should I be concerned you’re drinking at such a young age Twilight?” Dusk asked, her still being a teen.
“Dad, really? you seriously just asked me that?” Twilight asked, giving him a look that spelt out ‘really?’ just as well as what she just said.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Dusk retorted.
“Dude I know she’s your daughter and all, but she could kick your ass if she wanted to...” Frostbite said.
“I still don’t believe you’re that strong.” Dusk said, shaking his head.
“You weren’t watching yesterday?” Twilight asked.
“That’s with Magic dear. I mean physically.” Dusk said.
“...Don’t push it, I’ve got the worst hangover of my life.” Twilight groaned.
“Ooh, sounds like someone’s a bit scared of her old man eh?” Dusk retorted.
“Dude, we know you’re her dad...but seriously...I haven’t seen her in a bad mood before...and she still scares the piss outta me.” Frostbite said.
“Last time she was in a bad mood she nearly ripped a Valkyrie’s wings off.” Celestia said.
“Well I’ve got no wings to rip off.” Dusk challenged. Twilight shot a glare at him.
“There’s a few other things i can rip off rather easily...” Twilight said coldly.
“is that a challenge?” Dusk asked.
“Obviously not, but if you want it to be I’ll be sure not to kill you.” Twilight replied.
“Feisty.” Dusk said.
“Dear what is taking so long?” Dawn’s voice called as she entered.
“He just challenged Twilight to a brawl he’s going to lose.” Celestia said, stepping next to her.
“...Twilight wouldn’t accept that...” Dawn said.
“She is when he pushes her...we got wasted last night on Crystal Water and we’re all in a bad mood.” Frostbite said.
“Last chance.” Twilight said threateningly.
“Oh no, that’s her Schizophrenia kicking in isn’t it?” Dawn asked.
“Yep.” Celestia replied.
“I know. always wanted to spar a woman on my level.” Dusk said. he took one step towards Twilight and found himself embedded into the wall behind him the next. Twilight still stood, her foot still outstretched from her kick. after a few seconds she blinked and gasped.
“Oh dad I’m so sorry! I was so exhausted and my head hurt so bad i just snapped!” she exclaimed.
“Damn...I haven’t seen him out cold since he fought your mother...” Dawn said to Celestia.
“...was it that fast?” Celestia asked.
“Oh she let him take one more step but yeah.” Dawn replied and peeled her husband off of the wall. “Well now that that’s all done, Chrystarium wants to speak to you.” she continued.
“There you are. I cannot thank you enough for you help. We will maintain the Glyphs you inscribed and we are yours to command when needed.” Chrystarium said.
“Our pleasure, and thank you. We should return to our Den now, the other commanders might get worried or something.” Twilight replied.
“I understand. You are free to leave, not that you were ever forced to stay.” Chrystarium said.
“Wait, sister. I have a request.” Chrysalis said.
“What is it?” Chrystarium asked.
“If it’s alright with you guys, I would like to accompany you. With our primary threat now eliminated we don’t much need a general. I’d be of much more use fighting by your sides.” Chrysalis explained, looking at Twilight and Celestia.
“I don’t think we’d have a problem with that.” Twilight said.
“Hm...do you have an adequate second in command?” Chrystarium asked.
“Yes.” Chrysalis replied.
“Very well. Just be sure you come back in one piece.” Chrystarium said.
“Thanks Sis.” Chrysalis said, running up and hugging her. Then she quickly made her way to where the others were.
“Well let’s get going.” she said. Twilight nodded and she and Celestia leapt into the air.
“Why aren’t you following them?” Frostbite asked, turning to her Wolf form.
“Becuase I wanna run with you.” Crysalis replied, using her magic to copy Frostbite.
“That is so damn awesome.” Frostbite said before taking off on foot.
