Howl at the Moon
The Royal Squeaky Toys
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAs the Pony Express chugged through the countryside on the way to Canterlot, the capital of Equestria, me and the girls played many a game of eye spy, twenty questions, and a few board games that they had brought along. They had accepted the fact that Pinkie had asked me to date her, and had congratulated both of us.
The reason we where going to Canterlot was that apparently, since I had killed one of the Twelve, I was now seen as a sort of hero. The princesses wanted to meet me, and talk to me about where I was from, and what I was here for. Me and Pinkie where talking about how I would introduce myself, and what would proper etiquette be in front of the princesses. I also learned more about the princesses and how they would see me, being new to their lands and all.
The train took roughly two and a half hours to reach Canterlot Station. as it did, Twilight started to levitate our bags down to each of us. Me and the rest of the 6 girls waited by the door for the train to stop, the door opened, and Twilight headed us out of the car. She then turned to me, and said.
"Welcome to Canterlot, Cameron!"
"Wow. this place is amazing!" I looked around at the sights and could see that we where based on the side of a mountain. It had a tiered system to it so that all the levels where flat. It looked like it came out of the Lord of the Rings it was so majestic. Minas Tirith had nothing on this place. I looked at the castle, set on the highest tier, with many windows to look down into the city. I could see the stained glass windows that the girls talked about.
We started to walk around, and finally Rarity told us she had to run, she needed to go check up on her shop, and then she would meet us at the castle later. We headed through the city, and I just kept marveling at the beauty of the city. I noticed most of the ponies being stuck up asses, noses literally so, as they where jutted to the sky in utter disdain. I swear, if they looked up any more, they would have given Boa Hancock a run for her money in the "looking down on you" department.
I finally heard someone speak to the girls in a decent manner, and pulled my head from the clouds of the city to be meet with the sight of a stallion and mare in front of us. The stallion wore a gold monocle on his right eye, and had a nice, well trimmed mustache that was very bushy, without going into his snout. The mare with him, she was tall and thin, yet she felt dangerous. I didn't see anything, but I could almost be assured that she had a knife or something on her person, for anyone who decided to mess with her stallion she was protecting. I asked.
"So is she just a bodyguard or is she just really well trained in combat? And I really like your dress ma'am. It looks very flattering on you." I kept a serious tone the whole time,as I honestly was impressed by her dress. The mare laughed heartily, and responded with a very light French accent.
"I am Fleur de Lis. This is my husband Fancy Pants. And I play the role of bodyguard and wife. We should tell them about the time we meet someday, shouldn't we darling." the mare then looks at her husband.
"I agree. Would you like to sup with us tonight, or whenever it is convenient to you?" He asks, and I politely shake my head, the girls stepping in and starting to drag me to the castle.
"Sorry, I have to go meet the princesses. Maybe some other time?" and am rushed off to the castle gates.
"Princess Twilight and the Elements, plus one, to see Celestia and Luna." Twilight tells one of the guards at the gate, who then open it up, and we step through. We head towards the throne room, looking and explaining the pictures of stained glass in the front entry halls. We make it to the throne room doors before me and Pinkie enact our plan. Thankfully, one of the guards was not happy with me.
"You there, step away from the Princess immediately!" and lowering his spear at me. I look at him, and say.
"Okay. But before I do, please hold this." I then place an item in his hand, and step back. He opens his hand to look at the object, and is surprised by a set of windup clanking teeth. Falling on his but, I start to laugh. Saying one last thing as I start to transform.
"Just one question. Do you think you can take a Howler?" and transform into my beast form. Laughing like a maniac, I pick up Pinkie Pie, who is doing her job well of being terrified of me, pretending that I am some monster.
"OH GOD!! HELP PLEASE, HELP!! IT'S GOT ME!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"
I take off down the hall, Pinkie still screaming at the top of her lungs, pointing me in the direction of the throne room. We come thundering down the hall, Pinkie on my back holding on as tight as she can to my scruff. We charge the door to the throne room, me laughing maniacally as I come down the hall. The guards look at me and start to panic as I barrel past, slamming into the door to the throne room.
This is the hard part. I have to get to the sisters, while still making sure they don't try to kill me, and the guards not do so either. Luckily, me and Pinkie planned this. I slam on the proverbial brakes, and Pinkie comes flying forward off me. She lands directly in front of me as we slide up to the bottom of the steps to the thrones. Both the princesses have blades of renown in their hands, blades that out class all my weapons but one.
Luna caries an odachi of Japanese style, the blade being the blade of Midnight, a dark blade that is said to posses a demon called Gamerell. Celestia had a one handed Flamberge and shield. The blade radiated flames and had been forged by an Angel in the heart of her sun, both gifted to the princesses by her mother shortly after they had become princesses of Equestria.
Pinkie stood up, brushed herself off, and turned towards me saying.
"Thank you Cameron. I wanted to see the princesses. You are such a good howler. Yes you are, yes you are! Who's my good little howler!" she then starts to play wrestle me, petting and scratching my ears. I give her a big old sloppy lick, before turning to Luna, and walking up to her. I then laugh in her face. My cackling was heard throughout the castle, the guards surrounding us.
Twilight decided to take that moment to show up. "Okay girls, you've had your fun, but this is a little far. Bad Cameron. Turn back now."
I turn back my head and feel a little sad. I'm a good girl, not a bad girl. I slowly sink to the floor, before cackling again and transforming back to my human form, still laughing, but keeping myself from transforming again.
"I'm sorry, but you should see all your faces. I feel bad, but it was almost worth getting called a bad girl for. Almost. Hello princesses. I am Cameron Ruff, the howler that your student has told you about. Please forgive my sudden and rude intrusion."
"Oh, and also, your mother sends her regards."
Author's Note
Hey guys, here is another update. I wanted to do a better job, but I couldn't figure out how to scare the sisters better without making them try to kill me out the gate. If anyone thinks of a better way to introduce myself, message me and we can change it up. So don't be surprised if this gets changed everypony.
Have a Jivin day!
