Chapter 8.5 Children of the Night

By Jetflame

After I confronted my Brother upon arriving in Canterlot as well as getting a grasp of what was happening I decided to sit in on the meeting of the Night. So I went to the meeting hall where the Children meet when called. When I arrived I sat down in my Chair while all the others began to enter the room. All of them of course bowed to me which I acknowledged with a nod. I can’t believe they all still bow even when I have told them multiple times not to.

“I call this meeting of the Night to order.” I said.

“What is the status of the Defenses planned for the wedding and who do we have so that we all are prepared also what do we know of the ones who made the threat in the first place?” I asked the gathered ponies.

“Well your Highness we have several Lycan ponies on constant patrol around Canterlot keeping Eyes and Ears open for any hints to who made this threat to the wedding. We do have some theories on who or what could be behind this attack should there actually be an attack. Changelings are a good Possibility altho there hasn’t been any sightings in years also one reason we have the lycans patrolling they have better sense of smell and can see through a Changeling disguise the other possibility are the Paladins even though there supposed to be supporting us in the Defence of the wedding I can’t shake the feeling we are in for a fight and not just with the force that made this threat in the first place.” Nightwing reported.

“Hmmm. That is possible though I would like to avoid a conflict with the so called Paladins we always cant have what we wish for, so with that in mind stay on guard everypony” I replied.

“I do not know what is in store for the wedding as of yet I was asked to come and help organize the wedding and my friends are playing major roles in the wedding from dress making to the afterparty and the food I want them to be looked after whoever made the threat might try to disrupt the wedding in some way test the foods with poison detection spells I know my friends wouldn’t Poison her foods but that doesn't mean somepony will not use her food as an attack on Shining and Cadence though Poisons don't effect alicorns as much as a normal pony poison in a High enough dose can cause pain and them feeling sick.” I said.

“Keep looking for the ones responsible for this threat protect the civilians as well as all the High value targets that could be a target in this attack as well I want this to go off without a hitch but we know that an attack is coming we have to prepare for all outcomes get it done ponies we have so little time to prepare wish Shining had told me about this before hoof we could have made these plans earlier had we known about him asking Cadence to marry him.” I said with a Sigh.
“No arguments there, your Highness.” They all replied.

“Alright then I take it that's everything that needed to be discussed. If so then the meeting is adjourned. Have a beautiful night everypony.” I said as I stood up to leave.
