Love Turns Evil
The Search
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAn hour or so passed before King Shining Armor and Queen Cadence announced that everyone was ordered to stay in their homes as the empire was searched. Anyone who was visiting had to line up outside the palace. The train station was guarded and sealed off from the public until the princess was found. It was made clear anyone who was disobeying this order would be arrested and trialled for involvement in the Princess’ kidnap. The equestrian royals were told of the problem and had stopped all trains to the Crystal Empire until further notice.
Although Shining was upset, he was determined to find his little girl. He and his Captain had searched and questioned all of the guards… coming up empty on information. All the guards were cleared. The guards and Shining himself then set out to find his daughter.
When Shining first came into the throne room and once he had stopped crying and composed himself, he went to ask Cadence to seal the empire off but she had already done it right after he had told her. This meant that Flurry’s kidnapper only got about 10 minutes maximum to get out of the city. According to several eye witnesses the kidnapper was a Anthro … Not a Crystal Anthro but a normal Anthro meaning he came from equestria. Concluding that no one saw him with Flurry and he didn’t have wings and he didn’t have a horn, Taking the time into count it meant Flurry was still in the city.
Anthro’s could be born with a unicorn horn like Shining. Some were born with Pegasus wings and others had neither and were just Anthro’s. When addressing an Anthro with its race there was 5 Anthro types known of…
- A Crystal Anthro- from the Crystal Empire. (crossed from a Crystal pony and a human)
- A normal Anthro- from 1 of 3 ancient tribes. (crossed from an earth pony and a human)
- A Pega-Anthro- from 1 of 3 ancient tribes. (crossed from a Pegasus and a human)
- A Uni-Anthro- from 1 of 3 ancient tribes. (crossed from a Unicorn and a human)
- A Ali-Anthro- From pure Magic. No cross found… but believed to be an Alicorn and a human but it’s not genetic until Flurry was born…
This made Shining very angry… it meant the place he was born in… the place that he had laid his life down for and protected with his life. Wanted to hurt him and his family… This would need a good talking to Celestia about, once Flurry was found.
The search parties were sent out people was arrested of all different things…Drugs, weaponry, stolen goods. The long list of things went on as the Lieutenant told his Queen what had been discovered. With Shining out of the field she regularly Bubble called him to tell him what the search had found. It was good they had found and arrested so many but they hadn’t found their daughter or any evidence.
The guards kept looking raiding hundreds of home while fellow guards raided their own homes. Yes all the guards had been searched and questioned but their families and homes were still in line to be checked. The royal couple had ordered all the Empire to be searched. This meant no matter what you was doing. They were coming in. Schools and warehouses were checked along with the mines, the storage units in the castle gate. Everywhere…
After about 3 hours of checking and bringing in people. Cadence called Shining notifying him that ¾ of the empire had been searched and no information had been found about their daughter. He was upset to say the least but happier when she told him the dungeons in the palace were nearly full. He would certainly have a lot of interrogating to look through but it was better that having them all on the streets and its more interesting than diplomatic reports.
Shining’s groups did another half an hour of searching and still nothing. That was until they found one of Flurry’s earrings. Not her but a sign they was close. Shining called Cadence immediately telling her the good news.
