School Conversation In Seaquestria
After the Welcome Home party Princess Twilight threw at Seaquestria as an apology, everything turned out much better than before. Queen Novo accepts her apology and they celibate by playing bubble volleyball with the other seaponies. With the Storm King gone forever, the hippogriffs are free to fly outside of their homes and can enjoy the air and sun. Eventually twilight was able to bring the hippogriffs to her school as well.
During a day at school, Princess Twilight is in her office while her friends are teaching. She was doing more reports when Silverstream, the only hippogriff in school, came in to talk with the princess.
“Hello Silverstream.” She responded nicely. “Is there anything you need?”
“Well there’s something that came to my mind when I attended this school.” Silverstream sits down on one of the chairs in front of Twilight’s table. “Just to let you know, I was part of the welcome home party you threw for Queen Novo and I was wondering…were you the one who almost stole the pearl?”
“Yes.” Twilight frowned at the memory. As much she was happy that Novo accepted her apology, she still feels regretful for what she did.
“I’m not mad since it all turned out well for the party. I’m just a little concerned about Novo’s thoughts about you.”
Twilight was surprised to hear this, and voiced her confusion. “You’re concerned about her thoughts about me?”
“Well after the party, she still thinks you’re sneaky, even after the party worked out for you. She’s still very protective of her kingdom.”
“Queens and Princesses are always protective of their kingdoms. Queen Novo has one difference though: the Storm King took over our kingdom.”
Silverstream understands what Twilight means but she’s on Novo’s side in the conversation. “Twilight, I understand what you’re coming from but the pearl is too valuable and it’s the only things we have left in Seaquestria. You were willing to just take it, and I do get that it was to save the world and all that but...” Silverstream shook her head in slight frustration, “Pinkie Pie’s help made everyone happy.”
“Yes I learned my mistakes the hard way and It’s mostly my fault. I almost broke my friendship with Pinkie Pie.” Her face fell when she remembered yelling at Pinkie. Silverstream notice the look on Twilight’s face.
“Don’t you think you should talk to Queen Novo about you’re mistakes?” She suggested.
“Well I only threw the party to show how sorry I was but I only made her happy because of the performances me and my friends did. You have no idea how hard we had to work for what we had.” She gets off her chair and looks out the window. “If I’m ever going to talk to her about what happened, I’m bringing Pinkie Pie. She was involved, even if it was indirectly.”
Silverstream smiled and walked up to the princess putting her hoof around her back. “That’s a great idea. I really hope things will turn out well for you and the queen.”
“So do I.”
After school finished, Princess Twilight and Pinkie Pie make they’re way to the fountain in Sequestria.
“Twilight it’s really nice that you’re taking me to have a conversation with Queen Novo, especially since I can meet Skystar again.” Pinkie hugged Twilight but Twilight broke the hug fast.
“Yes I know but it’s mostly about my relationship with Novo…..if we do even have a relationship now.” Twilight said while giving Pinkie an awkward smile. They dive into the fountain as the whirlpool activates. When they get into a dark underwater cave, seaponies put air bubbles over Twilight and Pinkie’s head.
“Thank you.” Twilight responded to the seaponies.
“No problem.” The red seapony said. “You want to talk to the Queen?”
“Yes please.”
After hearing her answer, they guide both her and Pinkie to the throne room. As they enter, Twilight can see that Queen Novo is talking to her daughter while she’s in a good mood. Unlike the last time when she had a grudge against strangers inside of her kingdom, she’s much happier.
“Wow, I’ve never see the Queen so happy.” Pinkie stated, a beaming smile on her face.
“Neither have I. Things have been different since Equestria was saved.” Twilight said. They both swam towards the Queen and Princess with their hope just a little higher.
“Hey it’s Pinkie Pie and...Twilight Sparkle.” Princess Skystar said to the Queen of the Underwater Paradise.
Queen Novo recognizes the two ponies, feeling find with Pinkie Pie’s presence but she internal tensed from Princess Twilights. “It’s great to see you again. Why are you here?”
Princess Twilight didn’t know what to say to the Queen, instead choosing to whisper something to Pinkie. “Pinkie Pie can you please explain everything, I’m still a little off about talking to her.”
“Okay.” Pinkie Pie swam up towards the Queen.
“Queen Novo, Princess Twilight wants to know if...you’re friends with her after the party she made for you.”
Queen Novo went silent for several seconds. She was happy that the Princess was willing to take this matter into her own hooves, rather than cowere, as many nobles did. “I don’t know.” Was all she could say however.
“So you’re still mad at me for stealing the pearl?” Twilight asked.
“No, that’s not that I mean. You did put effort into showing you’re remorse’s but after you two left, things were back to what they use the be.” She gets off her throne and swims towards to be very clear with her. “Twilight, it’s nice that everything was back to normal but things are going to be the same between us. What I may see in you, a heart of respect, but I will still do what is best for my subjects.”
Twilight understands. Queen Novo only went to Canterlot to meet Princess Celestia several times and nowhere else, she always spends her time protecting her subjects in Seaquestria and nothing else. She allowed her people to come outside of her underwater kingdom but never went anywhere else to see great things in Equestria.
But this gives Princess Twilight an idea. “Wait, I know this is a tough discussion but how about you and your daughter be guest speakers at my school for one day?” Twilight asked.
“You have a school?”
“Yes, a School Of Friendship, or so it is named. You can give creatures some history about you’re kingdom and we can get know each other more.” Twilight explained.
“I don’t know, going to a school feels...just...a bit strange.” Novo lowered her head but it soon went back up as Pinkie lifted it.
“Don’t worry, poni...er...people...uh...I mean creatures will find you awesome and great to be around. Think of the information you can give to everyone.”
Princess Skystar also found the idea a little more promising as she’s also willing to confess to her Mother. “Trust them, it will be great meeting creatures of different species, and I want to help you. The world is safe without the Storm King now and I think we should come out and have a little fun.” Skystar hugged her mother pulling a truly happy smile out of her. Inside she’s still scared, but she still has hope for Twilight.
“Okay Twilight, tomorrow we will go to you’re school and we will teach everyone about Seaquestria itself. And maybe during our time, we can get to know each other better.” Novo replied.
“Don’t worry everything will work out.” Twilight said. They shook hooves, sealing the deal. Tomorrow will be a great day for not only the Students, but Twilight And Novo as well.
The Queen & Princess Arrives At The School Of Friendship
It was a normal day at Twilight’s school, creatures we’re in the library reading about the history of Equestria. Silverstream is reading about Celestia's past with Seaquestria, it was the only thing she can find about her queen being in Equestria at some point in her life.
“I really hope Twilight knows what she’s doing with Queen Novo.” She thought to herself as she gets back to her reading. Then just in time, Spike came into the library.
“Silverstream.” Spike poked her with a claw, catching her attention. “Twilight wants you in her office.”
Silverstream was happy to hear this since the conversation Twilight had with the Queen worked out. She and Spike headed to twilight’s office, passing several students as they did so.. Spike opened the door and they both go inside. Silverstream took notice that Princess Skystar and Queen Novo we’re sitting on the couch.
“Hey, Queen Novo and Princess Skystar are here!” She said excitedly.
“Silverstream can you please sit down.” Twilight said while her student took a seat on her chair. “Me and Queen Novo had a conversation about our….relationship kind of and she and Princess Skystar are going to be guest speakers for today.”
“Really?” She reacted.
“Trust me, I took my time from last night and this morning to think about it and this is what I got.” Queen Novo took out her scrolls for her plans the school. “This is my first time I’m actually going to a place that isn’t Canterlot.”
“My Mom always went to Canterlot from time to time meeting Princess Celestia and Luna before the war happened.” Skystar explained.
Silverstream checked all the scrolls and they were as good as expected. There was one thing Novo didn’t put down. ”Hey you didn’t put down that you’re going to show the creatures in you’re sea pony form.”
This made Novo tilted her head about the idea. “I don’t know, I can’t turn any creature into seaponies, only the regular ponies.” She gets off her couch and made her way to Princess Twilight. “I’m not sure if this is a good idea Twilight, I mean do you have a swimming class?”
“No.” Twilight answered. “Rainbow Dash’s class only has flying lessons and exercise. We just started this school weeks ago and we’re trying to improve.”
“Yeah, but I mean think about it.” Skystar walking up to her mother. “Some creatures may not have the ability to become seaponies but they also wanted to swim.”
“It’s not that, it’s just that I think some creatures aren't interested into swimming.” Novo explained. “I know this is the friendship school but someone could drown if they don’t have the ability to breath underwater.”
Twilight understands Novo’s point, creatures especially ponies won’t be able to breath underwater. She gets out from behind her desk, thinking about the situation. “Okay I think we should save that for later, I might be able to get somepony to help me in the class before every creature swims, I’ll get Zecora.”
“Who’s Zecora?” Skystar asked.
“She’s a zebran protein mixture of a sort. I’m sure she’ll have something for my students to let them breath underwater.” Twilight then uses her magic to hover Novo’s scrolls. “I think we should pray that today will be special for all of us.”
Silverstream and Princess Skystar both hug Twilight and Novo tightly. “Today will be special mom.” Skystar laid her head on her mother’s shoulder making her smile.
“We pray Skystar, we can only pray.”
All the students are waiting in the classroom, doing their school work. Silverstream wasn’t part of her class due to Twilight wanting her to introduce the Queen and Princess.
“Attention students.” Twilight called. “Our student Silverstream has something to announce.” She introduce Silverstream to everyone as all the students stopped doing they’re school work.
“Okay, as you know I am a hippogriff from Seaquestria. And today, the queen and her princess daughter are here.” Everyone was surprised since they’d never met the queen of Seaquestria before.
“Are you serious!?” Smolder leaning in on her desk.
“Yep. This is our first guest speak-- I mean our first two guest speakers in the School.” She move away from the door for the Queen and Princess. “Please welcome Queen Novo and Princess Skystar.”
After hearing their names, Novo and Skystar entered the room. Every creature was shocked that they were meeting one of Celestia's closest friends. Novo tried to be confident for her first time being here while Skystar is thrilled to get a chance to hang out with Pinkie Pie again.
“Ponies….and creatures, I am Queen Novo and this is my daughter Princess Skystar.” She introduce herself and her daughter to the students in class. “Princess Twilight told me that we’re going to be guest speakers for the whole day. What we’re going to do today is-”
“Watch us as sea ponies!?” Skystar interrupted.
“YEAH!” Everyone in class shouted excitedly.
“Actually we’re going to save that for later.” Novo getting back on topic.
“So what are you going to teach us?” Sandbar asked.
Novo took out her scrolls to the students. “I’m going to show you the history of me and the Storm King.”
“Wait, you mean the Storm King who almost took over Equestria?” Ocellus said in surprise.
“Yes, there’s a reason why us and Silverstream we’re gone in Equestria.” Skystar said.
Meanwhile Twilight smiled. So far Novo is teaching everyone about her past and they’re enjoying her and her daughters presence.
“Do you think this is going to turn out well?” Spike wondered.
“We can only pray Spike.” Twilight responded.
