Princess Luna was content with her life, mostly. Being the ruler over millions of ponies was quite the chore, so Luna wished she had something to keep her company in the night. She looked to her sister, who had Philomena to smile at on even the most horrid of days. Then, she turned her attention to the Elements, who all had their own pets to accompany them during their time alone.

Luna determined that she needed a pet of her own, a pet to care and cherish during the cold nights in Canterlot. However, her plans on what to consiider as a suitable pet was interupted by a monster destroying her room. She apprehended this scaly creature, intitally angry at first. Yet, as she looked into the beady yellow eyes of it, she thought to herself,

"What an adorable vulture!"

Sure her sister didn't approve of her new pet. Sure the night gaurds were fidgeting in their armor as her beloved vulture screetched. Sure there was the fact that there may be a chance that her pet is a sentient Space Pirate that wishes to destory everything that moves.

Luna didn't care, it was tea time dammit!
