Letters to Princess Celestia from Queen Quake
Letter 3: Golden Gates
Previous ChapterVoiced Version:

Queen Quake sat upon her throne thinking, her face somewhere between a scowl and a hardened grin. She looked over as her little drake was walking by. “Richter Scales, do you have anything you need to do, right now?” The mare asked.
Richter Scales stopped and rolled his eyes. With a heavy sigh, he looks over at Queen Quake and speaks “Yes but I can stop whatever it is to assist you, my royal crust cracker.”
The pony ponders this for a moment. “I’m not sure if you’re insulting or complimenting me on that one so I’ll just let it go." She replies.
Richter Sacles decides to lead the conversation rather than face whatever the tremor wielding earth pony has in store. "So what ever happened to that Golden Gate mare you were wrecking before you went through the portal?" He asked tentatively.
Immediately, Queen Quake's eyes light up with their green glow and she looks at it with a face that indicates a rant is about to start. "That reminds me, Rictor Scales, take a note" She starts and instantly the spell activates putting a quill and paper in Richter scales hands. He sighs as he is forced to set down the rest of his books and research pieces. "Dear Princess Celestia. I feel as though if I do not talk about the Elephant and her sibling calves in my kingdom then I will never truly deal with them. I refer to Golden Gates of Course. That pompous mare whom claims to defend the people of Sanfraniscolt. Which, of course, is my job."
The drake stops writing and looks up, a slight reflection from his marble rock like scales hitting the mare's crown. "Why not just offer her Andres's old position?"
"Do not be ridiculous." Queen quake said with a dismissive tone and then started to take in a deep breathe. The earth started to rumble as her chaotic magic was let lose "She is my enemy and must be crushed beneath my hooves! Smashed into tiny pieces! Broken and shattered--"
Seeing where this was going, the clever dragon decided to cut this frenzy off before something shook apart. "I get the idea. So she, like, opposed you and now she is your mortal enemies?"
The mare deflates and the rumbling stops as she lets out a deep panting sigh. "Something like that. It was really her little brat sister who stole the Emperor's Staff, giving it some ridiculous pet name." She says with a snappy attitude.
Richter scales flicks through various pages and scrolls before he finds the name. "Lionel Eugene the third."
"Silence!" The mare shoots at the drake and let's it echo in her great hall before continuing. "She and her ilk also poisoned Andreas with some silly ideas about their magic that makes no difference."
"According to recent information from Equestria,-" The smaller drake starts to speak.
"And let us not forget that ridiculous pose she attempted when she did arrive. Some silliness about punishing me or somethings. And swearing upon all those various sundry things seems to done her as little good as the air she was wasting upon it." The Queen of Tremors says as she interrupts the drake once again.
"From what you told me before, it was based upon a show called, “Sailor Moon.” Richter Scales replies and even starts to speak again but he is once again, cut off from speaking.
"That is ridiculous." The mare says, with the utmost certainty in her voice that is more of a final say than a statement. "Princess Luna has only recently returned to Equis and could not possibly have anything to do with such a show."
"I have been doing a bit of research upon the subject and I have theorised that-" The drake starts again getting frustrated by Queen Quake's dismissive attitude towards him.
"Blah, Blah, Blah, sciences stuff." Queen Quake cuts him off for the last time as Richter Scales blood finally boils over.
"Let me finish a sentence for once?" The drake declares, more as a sign of indignation rather than a question. The room is silent for a moment as the mare looks at him, her eyes slightly softening as she sees his frustration and knows she may have actually upset him.
"That will be all for the day. Make sure you sign with all my titles as usual and get this out on the double." The mare replies as Richter Scales stands there in silence, writing for a moment then looking up at her, as if expecting something else to happen. Queen Quake looks at him, tilts her head, leans down so her breath is hitting his muzzle. "Make like a Rock and roll!"
Richter Scales yelps back and patters off as quickly as possible.
There is a long sigh and a hanging of her head for a moment before Queen Quake speaks again, "Ridiculous know it all drake."
