Finding Destiny

“Of course aunt Celestia and aunt Luna. However after we make the announcement I will need to get some sleep so I am ready tonight,” said Rose as they headed to the throne room. Rose noticing that Lucky stayed behind looked to Luna and said “Luna could I borrow about a hundred bits for the date tonight and get you to do me two favors?”

“Of course my dear niece. What can I do for you tonight?” asked Luna.

“Well, when you raise the moon tonight could you make it a full moon. That way after we eat we can go on a nice moonlit walk before turning in. The second favor is can you make me a reservation for two tonight at a restaurant that Lucky likes. I just want tonight to be perfect for her,” said Rose as they near the throne room.

“Consider it done Rose. After the announcement is made I’ll make the reservations. Here are the bits you wanted and the moon will be full tonight. Personally, I think you made a perfect choice. For Lucky has always liked to take moonlit walks at night,” said Luna.

All three alicorns walk into the throne room where there were three thrones waiting. Once everypony took their seats Celestia said “Everypony Luna and I have a special announcement to make. We are proud to present to you the Princess of Portals Princess Morning Rose. I believe she has something to say to you all so I’ll let her speak.”

Rose looked out at everypony and said “Look, I know a lot of you don’t agree with their decision to make me a princess. However, I want you all to know that a thousand and fifteen years ago Celestia and Starswirl had a son. Their son joined the guard and after proving himself was given a special assignment. He fell in love and had some foals. He was my ancestor. In other words, I am a descendant of Celestia and as such, I swear to protect this land with all my might. That’s all I have to say.”

Once Rose finished talking she left to get some sleep before her date. As she turned to leave she noticed that Solar Eclipse Armor and a mare with a black coat and a pink mane and tail. The mare was also wearing armor with the moon symbol on it. Rose curious as to who the mare is said “ I don’t mean to be rude but who are you miss? I can tell from the symbol on your armor that you belong to the night guard. However, I have no idea why you are following me.”

“Please excuse me, your highness. My name is Lunar Armor and you are right. I am part of the night guard. In fact, I am the captain of the night guard. The reason I am following you is that Solar Eclipse Armor and I have been ordered to be your personal guards whenever you are here in Equestria. We will protect you with our lives, my princess.”

“Are you and Solar married by any chance miss Lunar? I only ask because you have the same last name and the look in your eyes told me it wasn’t like a brother. By the way, I would be honored to have you both as my guards. However, I can tell by the time that you both haven’t eaten breakfast. The moment I get to my room I want you both to go get something to eat. Once you are done eating your breakfast you can return and stand guard outside my room. By the way, I know Rarity is currently at the Canterlot Carousel. Could you summon her here to my room for me?”

Solar Eclipse Armor looked at his princess and said “Of course my princess. She shall be here in a one hours time. In the meantime, I hope you have a good long soak before she gets here.”

With everything said Rose entered her room and took a nice hot bath to calm her nerves. Half an hour later Rose gets out and dries off. Once she is dry she grabs a Daring Do book off the shelves and starts to read. She just got to the part where Daring Do jumped across a ravine when she heard a knock. Knowing who it is she said, “come in.”

As soon as Rose heard the door close she looked up and saw a unicorn mare with a coat as white as freshly fallen snow and a rich purple mane and tail. Know that this must be Rarity Rose puts her book down goes over to her. Once she is in front of Rarity she bowed and said “Lady Rarity Thank you for coming on such short notice. I heard from my dear friend Twilight that you make the best dresses in Equestria and I was hoping you would be willing to make me one for a date tonight. By the way, I should’ve introduced myself first my name is Morning Rose or at least it is now. My birth name was Rhyme Script.”

Rarity gasped and said “ I have heard all about you Rose from Twilight. As such I must thank you for helping Twilight get the crown back and saving her life. I would be honored to make the dress your highness I’ll just need your measurements and then I’ll get started it will be delivered in three hours.”

Rose just nodded and stood still while Rarity took her measurements. All the while Rose could hear Rarity say that she would look best in a blueish green dress to match her eyes.Rose zoned out for a few minutes until she heard “Well I got all the measurements I need Rose. I’ll deliver the dress in the next few hours. Bye, your highness.”

Once Rarity left Rose crawled into bed curled her wings around her and went to sleep. As she slept Lucky Rose went to talk to Celestia and Luna about the date tonight and about how nervous she was.
