A Tale of Night and Day
Chapter 1
On a dark stormy night in a faraway kingdom lived two young ponies one was called Prince Night Wing and a Princess named Crystal Heart. They dreamed of a faraway place where they could be happy with the love of their choice and not their parents. Their only problem being they had to marry someone from their own side of the kingdom.
The next morning Prince Night Wing was startled from his sleep by the light being turned on by his personal hoof maid who said. “It’s time to wake up young prince, it’s time for breakfast.”
Night Wing rolled over with a large moan and said. “Thank you Golden Harvest.”
Night Wing slowly climbed out of bed and stretched his wings, walked over to his shower room and took a nice refreshing shower, he also cleaned his teeth. Then he walked over to his dresser and used his magic to sort his mane and tail out, he then put on his royal regalia which consisted of his crown, shoes and chain.
Once he was completely ready he made his way to the dining hall to join his family for breakfast. Once he was there his father King Dark Knight said to him in a booming voice. “There you are Night Wing, you will never believe the news your mother and I have for you.”
Night Wings mother Queen Silver Star said “Let him sit down first before we tell him.”
“Good morning mother and father.” Night Wing said as he took his seat at the table.
Night Wing was wondering what the news was his parents had to tell him so he asked. “Mother, father says you have some news for me could you please tell me what it is.”
Silver Star looked at Dark Knight who gave her the confirming nod.
“Night Wing do you remember the conversation you had with your father about finding a suitable princess to marry?” Silver Star asked Night Wing.
“Yes I do, why do you ask?” Night Wing replied.
“This is about that conversation son, you don’t have to worry anymore because we found someone.” Dark Knight replied.
“WHAT!” Night Wing exclaimed.
“Do you remember Princess Starlight? You met her at the Winter Moon Festival.” Queen Silver Star said.
“Yes I remember her but I never imagined marrying her because we only met once and I never spoke to her.” Night Wing replied.
“I don’t care whether you spoke to her, you are going to marry her and make her a happy princess!” boomed King Dark Night.
Night Wing sat in a stunned silence, then in anger got up and took off as fast as his wings could take him. As he flew away he could hear his father’s booming voice ordering him to come back.
Night Wing flew so fast he wasn’t looking where he was going so he ended up bumping into another pony that was flying at the same speed as him, she was crying.
Chapter 2
On the same morning a young princess named Crystal Heart was lazily watching the world go by from her window. She was dreaming about her crush Sir Loyal Heart, he was a knight in her family’s royal army.
After a while she decided to go down to the dining hall for breakfast. She sat and started to eat her breakfast when her mother Queen Golden Heart entered.
“Good morning dear, how are you this fine morning?” Queen Golden asked.
“I’m fine mother, why do you ask?” Crystal Heart replied.
“There’s my ray of sunshine Crystal Heart.” Her father King Solar Flare said.
Both parents were unusually happy which made Crystal Heart very worried.
“What’s going on?” Crystal Heart worriedly asked.
“Should we tell her?” Queen Golden Heart asked.
“Tell me what?” asked Crystal Heart who was curious to know what was going on.
“Ok Crystal Heart, your mother and I were talking and have decided on someone for you to marry.” King Solar Flare replied.
“What who!?” Exclaimed Crystal Heart.
“Prince Brave Heart.” Queen Golden Heart replied.
“What why him? I love Sir Loyal Heart.” Crystal Heart replied.
Both parents sat in silence thinking of what they should next then King Solar Flare shouted.
“YOU LOVE WHO! SIR LOYAL HEART, ONE OF THE LOWLY KNIGHTS! NO, YOU ARE MARRYING PRINCE BRAVE HEART AND NO ONE ELSE!”
Crystal Heart got up from the table in tears and ran away as far away from the castle as she could get. She didn’t care where she went as long as it wasn’t in the castle.
She decided to go to her favourite place where she could be alone but before she could reach it she bumped in to somepony else. She looked up and saw she had bumped into another royal pony, she thought it was the pony her parents wanted her to marry so she quickly sped off in a different direction which caused the other pony to follow her.
Chapter 3
Night Wing got up after being knocked down and looked for a brief moment at Crystal Heart before she sped off away from him.
“Wait!” Exclaimed Prince Night Wing.
But Crystal Heart was too far away to be able to hear him. So Night Wing decided to take off after her.
Crystal Heart could hear flapping behind her but didn’t look back to see who it was. She carried on until she got to the abandoned castle in the Everfree Forest.
The castle was dangerously falling apart and gave off an eerily creepy feel. It had once belonged to the old rulers of their kingdom when they were one nation before the war broke and ended splitting night from day.
Crystal Heart landed and immediately went to one of the castles bedrooms that was run down and where the bed was broken but she didn’t care. Night Wing landed outside the castle and then made his way inside the castle where he listened carefully for the young ponies cries. He heard them and followed the sound to a bedroom on the first floor.
The door was closed, so he knocked a couple of times but got no response so he used his magic to slowly open the door. To reveal Crystal Heart crying her eyes out on the bed.
“Who are you?”
Crystal Heart calmed and turned her head in the direction of the voice.
“Don’t you know who I am?” Crystal Heart responded.
“No I don’t, but you look familiar, please tell me your name.” Night Wing said
“My name is Princess Crystal Heart of the Solar family and you are?” Crystal Heart asked.
“I am Prince Night Wing of the Luna family nice to meet you Crystal Heart.” Night Wing replied.
“Oh how silly of me I thought you were the pony my parents had chosen for me to marry.” Crystal Heart said.
“Oh ok, who did they choose for you to marry?” Night Wing asked.
“Prince Brave Heart did your parents choose someone for you?” Crystal Heart asked.
“Yes Princess Starlight, she’s not as nice you though.” Night Wing said
“Prince Brave Heart, isn’t as nice as you either.” Crystal Heart said.
They sat there in that room for the rest of their time together just laughing and talking to one another.
“Would you like to be my friend?” Crystal Heart asked.
“Yes I would love to be your friend.” Night Wing replied.
