(Chapter 1 after three months)

(Chapter 1 after three months)

I was in the middle of a forest and it was Quiet… too quiet…

(twang)

I quickly turn my head to the right and jumped 5 feet to the left. A arrow purest the spot I was in a few seconds ago.

I landed softly and quickly moved my sword to cut another Arrow coming at my head.

Again it was quiet… then all of a sudden The Arrows came from everywhere rapid firing.

I hold my ground and begin to Block every arrow with my sword.

The iron head arrows were no match against my… umm... whatever material sword.

Eventually the arrows stopped.

“We’re out!” Shouted a archer from the tree line.

“Alright that’s the end of practice!” I shouted back

Wait did you think I was in danger? Anyways after practice I decided to go back to the kingdom.

On my way out I passed by a tree that was holding up my bow Book and crown

John and his family gave it to me as a gift. I trust John and his family. Any of the new recruits that wanted to join the knight or the Vikings he would already have dozens of armour sets made.

(Stomach growl)

I could really use some of O’Neills soup again. He is the best chef in all the lands. Not once did he let me down with his fantastic cooking.

I begin to hear footsteps behind me. I turned around to see 2nd lieutenant Eric.

Over the months I begin to make a ranking system for the army.

“Ahh 2nd Lieutenant, how kind of you to join me” I said cheerfully.

“Good morning sir, I wish I could join you but I was ordered by Luke to bring you to him. The court and Luke is waiting for you.” Was the reply.

“All right son I’ll go... Hey make sure to tell O’Neil that I need some more of his fantastic soup.” I said giving an order

“Right away sir” he said running off.

‘if only we had Calvary’ I thought to myself.

I soon finish packing and started running off. I bring one of my arrows to think about last night.

I was trying to understand how I had unlimited arrows until I realize that they were connected to my energy. Meaning if I get tired I won’t be able to get many arrows, and the more arrows to fire then I will slowly begin to feel tired.

I put the air back and start really running now.

I was probably running a… maybe 100 miles an hour. It’s hard to tell when you’re not focussing and not realizing there’s a big rock in front of you.

…

…

…

Wait wh- (boom!)

(Green Flame POV)

“Hmmm Hmm Hmmm” I Humed to myself as I walked through the forest. I was glad at least one place in the world where they accepted changelings for who they were. Not only that but let them be there future queen.

Don’t give me wrong a few ponies have actually become my friends.

But right now this very instant it’s just me and killer. Currently I was picking flowers to lighten up me and Alex‘s room. Killer was there because he loved being my little Guard dog.

I was wearing a green shirt with blue jeans. I started growing a mean which Alex said looks good on me.

(just picture it green)

The new human kingdom in Equestria have making trading crazy. Even the money is going crazy!

So that’s why i'm out here. Being a future queen is hard! Everyone is expecting you to do well everything you do is known to everyone… well somethings Are left unknown.

Anyway! Constantly when I’m sleeping at night I have at least a headache. I’m just tired...I’m tired of everyone thinking that I’m going to do the best.

I’m going to make mistakes and I want them to realize that. I’m not even sure if my money idea will work.

I was relaxing until (boom!).

I stopped.

I looked a killer.

We both knew what happened.

Begin walking to the spot where I heard the boom. This is the fifth time this month that my idiotic Boyfriend smashed himself into a rock.

I walk to the spot to see him face first into a rock as usual.

“Hum hunmy” (hi honey) Alex said.

“Hey honey seems you're stuck in a rock again“ I said teasingly.

“Un knuoo” (I know) was the response

“Does the little fox want some help” I continue.

“Hunmy un swr tuo whuoebr iss lissuning un wull slunp yow” (honey I swear to whoever is listening I will slap you) he threaten.

“Alright, I’m helping, I’m helping” I quickly go behind him and start pulling him out. As usual I found my butt and he comes flying out hitting a tree and breaking it… Then…

Thank... You… said a quiet and beating voice.

(Alexander doom POV)

I get up from the broken tree, and walk over to Green Flame... who is laughing her ass off.

“Ha ha ha ha!” I said annoyed.

“Oh calm down I’m just teasing you” she replied.

I wanted to continue to be angry, but the sound of her voice Calmed me down.

“I’m sorry” I started “ it’s just… everything is coming at me at once. I have to make sure that the structures are build, food is prospering, we have money on the street, no one is homeless, The army isn’t slacking off… fuck I still have 2000 more summoning points! And I can’t fucking do anything about it because we have no-

(Slap!)

I felt a sharp pain on my left cheek

(Slap!)

I look at Green Flame who seems to be the one who slapping me. She noticed that I have noticed her and stopped.

“Honey” she said “I know things are stressful it’s going to be. Your kingdom is on the verge of rising and yet it’s on the verge of breaking. You’ve been too busy on taking both the jobs of governing and being a general. So how about you give me the governing and you focus on the army.

I wanted to retaliate but the pleading look in her eye forced me to submit. “OK... honey... OK…”

xxxxxxxxxx

We had made it back to the palace on time. We walked into the courtroom and waited for the other nobles.

of course this isn’t a real courtroom it’s just its name.

You see there’s five different spots in the courtroom. And the quart room is shaped like a dome.

The first spot is called the chair and is where the important people sit. And so far that’s only me and Green flame. This part of the courtroom is in the centre. Luke has his own spot just a few feet to the right. Used to only take notes and relay messages from other kingdoms, clans or anyone who wants to talk to us.

The other spots are called the factions

The first faction of the courtroom is to the right. It takes up a quarter of the room. This faction talks about the army, mainly what’s wrong with it and how I can help.

The Second faction is to the left of the second spot. It also takes up a quarter of the room. This faction talks about contact outside the kingdom.

The third is to the left and also takes up a quarter. This faction focuses on business and how can prosper.

The last one is my favourite. The fourth faction is about the people. This faction studies the loyalty and happiness of the people.

Me and Green Flame take our seats and wait for the-

(Ding! dong! ding! dong!)

In an orderly fashion three doors open up and 200 and Nobles walk in.

There is 50 in each faction.

“I would like to thank you all for coming” I said while standing up. “So Luke you have a very important message which we are going to have to wait”

“Understandable my Lord” said Luke.

“Anyways as usual the army faction you may go first” I said then sitting down.

Each of the factions have leaders who do most of the talking.

The army faction leader cole speaks “thank you my Lord… it has come to our attention that the footwear that we have is on needed and can be softer. This will help with travelling and comfort but will have no protection for the feet.”

It give me a minute to think about this one. On one hand the army may be happy and be able to travel faster. On the other hand they would be safer.

Well they’re more likely to get shot by an arrow or get hit in the body, arms and legs than the feet.

“it seems like the best course of action to have softer footwear. I accept!... now is there anything else that the Army needs.” I said

“No my Lord, that is everything” was the reply.

“OK. The contact do you have anything to discuss.” I said looking at the contact faction.

Their leader Rick stands up. “Yes my lord it seems like Equestria has moved all it’s forces to the border of the Griffon kingdom. If we ever get in trouble... we may not be getting their help for future battles”

I nodded my head “thank you for the report is there anything else”

“No my Lord” he said and then take Sit

“Already then the business faction you may speak“ I said looking at the business faction.

“We have nothing my Lord” replied a random person.

“Oh... OK then, people faction do you have anything to say” I said looking at the People’s action.

I love this faction because it helps people…. But right now, it’s only a pain in my ass.

Their leader Sarah stood up “A lot my Lord, The kingdom is low on funds and there is barely any room. We were unable to get enough gold to bring the kingdom to its feet. This kingdom isn’t enough for 40,000 citizens.

(Inhale) (exhale) “did anyone find any solution”

“No”

And then started the argument. Arguments went from lowering taxes to asking the equestrians for help.

I would’ve went to the equestrians... “again” but as soon as it was out of their borders it was instantly stolen.

Through all the arguing I didn’t hear a Green Flame trying to talk.

“I have an idea” said a quiet Timid voice that belong to Green Flame.

The whole room went silent and look at her. Green Flame was too nervous to speak.

“Go on Green Flame you may speak” I said reassuring.

“Well what if we put other metals?” And the whole room was confused. “Here let me put it this way” she started writing on a piece of paper.

1 bronze = 0.01
100 bronze = 1.00
1 silver = 1.00
100 silver = 100.00
1 Gold = 100.00
100 Gold = 10,000.00
1 Platinum = 10,000.00 etc.

The whole room went silent... again… Green Flame had a nervous smile... and then the courtroom burst out laughing. Green flame had a look of embarrassment. I was laughing too and then said. “I can’t believe... it was so simple!”

The whole room was silent... once again…

“Think about it” I said “The whole time we’ve been trying to copy the equestrians on their gold idea. All that’s done is left us in their debt and we still don’t have a enough. What Green Flame said was the most brilliant idea I ever heard or read” The whole courtroom began to thinking about it. One by one their heads approved.

I look over to Green Flame hug her. “Awesome idea Green Flame” I whispered to her.

“Do you really think so?” was the reply.

I Kissed her on the forehead and said “of course my love. I knew letting you run the government what is the best idea for the king.”

She gave a cute smile and kiss me on the lips. “Thank you my love” she whispered back.

After about 15 minutes of hearing her talk more about the money problem, The nobles were starting to like the idea more and more. And why wouldn’t they! Each of them have at least a few hundred gold already, and that would turn their few hundred into a few thousand. Hell Some must have millions!

After that we finally addressed Luke’s problem.

“Thank you for waiting patiently Luke” I said.

“It was no problem my lord. Anyways” he pulls out at scroll.

Dear Lord Doom

The kingdom of Tuadmuma would like to invite you to dinner in your honour.

We are in desperate need for some good friends and we heard that you were expanding your kingdom greatly.

We will except military alliance or becoming your vassal.

We hope to see you soon... in the back there is a map.

From King Ea…

The room… went silent… again…

xxxxxxxxxx

I’m walking to my room. Me and the court have decided to make them my vassals. Took a lot of arguing and deciding... but it was finally done.

Green Flame had left earlier and I had no idea where she went.

I go to my room and opened it up. I took all the armour and weapons that were fit for ponies and made them fit for humans and foxes.

There’s a chest in the right back corner which I think has about 4000 platinum coins. There is a safe in left back corner which we are planning on putting the platinum coins in, but it’s filled with gold silver and bronze.

16,000 gold
20,000 silver
4000 bronze

Compared to Equestria… that’s fucking nothing!!! I see their fucking vault! They have at least 6 billion Gold coins!

Forward is the bed, to the left is the dresser and to the right is the balcony. I can see Green Flame on the balcony.

Quickly I sneak up on her and hug her from behind.

She jumped to my touch but then quickly return the affection.

“Do you have to go?” She asked even though knowing the answer.

“Unfortunately yes. I want there to be good relationships… so I must go” I replied.

“Alright... just promise me you’ll be safe”

“I shall my love... I shall”
