I was glaring at one of my blueprints I made during my mercenary days, an artificial horn stupid idea. They would all just end up like me, a horn but without no real magic to funnel through it. I smashed the prototype I had built in half, I blinked as I looked at the cracks, of course Tempest, she can’t be the only unicorn to suffer from this.

I smiled as I began modifying the blueprint, I blinked as I realised I needed a book on unicorn anatomy to complete the blueprints. I trotted out of my room, I frowned as I trotted through the hallways. I looked around as I saw ponies running around trying to figure out where to put things for me and Chrysalis’s wedding. I blinked as I felt a kiss on my cheek, I turned to see Chrysalis smiling at me “What are you doing my love?”

I smiled back “I am doing some research for a modification of an old project of mine and I need a book on unicorn anatomy.”

Chrysalis smirked “I’m curious now and all this wedding prep is quite tiring, a break would be fitting.” I rolled my eyes as we trotted through the hallways of the castle, Chrysalis smiled “I can’t believe this I never thought I’d get a wedding in a grand castle like this, I always thought it would be in a dirty outhouse before running as the guards stormed in.”

I giggled “It would have been more a bloody battle through the guards to escape together and then create our own hive to take over Equestria.”

Chrysalis blinked “You would have joined me in that endeavour?”

I grinned “Of course I love you, I had already written up the plans with us taking over and creating an empire for both ponies and changelings that would strike fear even in the demons of Tartarus itself. We can read them later if you like.”

Chrysalis smiled “You’re going to make me a very happy changeling.”

I smiled back “I’m glad to hear that my dear.” I entered the library, I saw the Librarian who was a pale blue stallion with a spell blook on his flank surrounded in a magic circle.

I asked “Which way is the anatomy section?” The stallion was to busy reading and pointed in a direction, I smiled as I thought about his reaction when he realised he snubbed a Princess. Me and Chrysalis trotted down to the anatomy section we found a book on pony anatomy, I skimmed through it confirming it had what I needed. We walked back up to the desk, “Excuse me sir but we would like to borrow this book on pony anatomy.”

He looked up and gasped “Princess Starsong when did you arrive.”

Chrysalis grinned “About two minutes ago asking for the anatomy section.”

His eyes bulged out of his skull “I’m so so so sorry Princess, I shouldn’t have…”

We burst out into raucous laughter as we fell to the floor. We were like that for about 10 minutes before recovering. I smiled “We just need to borrow this book.”

He smiled “Take it, the Princesses have free reign over the Libraries.” I nodded and we left.

I blinked as Rarity ran up and grabbed Chrysalis “I need to fit you for your dress, we have to go now!” Chrysalis mouthed help me as she was dragged off by Rarity I chuckled as I headed back to my room. I began reading over the book picking up details and modifying the blueprint.

Days past and through all this between Rarity’s dress fitting and my work I had little spare time. Finally the blueprint was completed only a month before the wedding, I trotted down to the head manufacturer in the castle named Iron Hammer what I knew as he a gritty old stallion with a rusty hammer for a Cutie Mark.

I frowned as entered his office “I have something I want done before my wedding.”

Iron Hammer asked “Wut iz it mildy.”

I frowned at his accent “I want your crew to create me prototype of this blueprint.”

He blinked “Blimey, dis iz some fancy handiwork if I do say so mself, I’ll happily have a few prototypes designed for ya.”

I smiled knowing that everything was coming together.
