Twilight Sparkle was in the Ponyville schoolhouse meeting with Cheerilee as she was talking to the school teacher.
She was glad that she had met up with Cheerilee as they both had wanted to see eachother since they dont see eachother that often.
Twilight made plans with Cheerilee to meet up with her again as they both wanted to hang out with eachother again.
After Twilight had met with Cheerilee Twilight and Cheerilee said bye to eachother and then Twilight left the schoolhouse and walked back torwards her castle
As she walked back torwards her castle Twilight felt the wind breeze against her as she moved. She knew she needed to take more walks like this as they felt nice to her and they were healthy for her as outside was alot healthier than being inside
Soon Twilight got back to her castle, when she got back to her castle she heard someone call her name. She wondered who it was so she turned around and saw Princess Cadence walking up to her.
Twilight wondered what Cadence was doing here as she didnt usually take unplanned trips outside of the crystal empire unless she had to.
"Hi Cadence! Did you travel all the way here to see me? What's wrong? Is everything fine in the Crystal Empire?" Twilight asked. Cadence hesitated and then spoke
"I came here because I'm requesting you to dance at the crystal palace." Cadence asked.
Twilight stared back at her in shock, for one part Twilight was nervous about this prospect but for most she was excited as she could perform in a high end palace.
Twilight wondered why Cadence wanted to dance at the palace as couldnt think of a good reason for dancing their as the place was a home for royals not a place for danc performances.
"Why? What's the point of that?" Twilight asked. Cadence looked at the floor and then returned her head upward as she gazed at Twilight.
"Twilight I'm requesting you to a high stakes diplomacy mission that I have set up in the Crystal Empire. Do you know the cult called the harbingers of justice? Cadence asked. Twilight nodded as she knew all about tthem.
"Yeah they were behind the explosion in Manehattan...most of the members have been arrested but the cult is still operating why are you asking me this?" Twilight asked. Cadence frowned and gulped as she averted her eyes to the floor. Soon she looked at Twilight with a nervous gaze.
"Because Richard, the leader of the Harbringers of Justice will be at this meeting, I'm meeting him to end the uprising their group is conducting, if we dont impress this guy....." Cadence said but halted before she could finish her sentence. When she continued tears left her eyes.
"Millions of innocent people, men women and children will be killed in a wide war....and it will be both our faults....now if you screw up I'll still have a chance trying to convince him but it will be hard as he wants a good show from you, he hates being disappointed. Do you want you know what happened to his singer when they failed badly?"" Cadence said as she started to cry.
Twilight became even more fearful as she remembered the news about the entertainer that was hired to entertain the insurgency group, one day the singer screwed up and was found dead on a street with their throat slit open.
Twilight realized how serious this situation was she was going to have to do her best and Cadence was going to have to do her best at diplomacy if Equestria was going to survive.
"Yeah I do...I'll do the best I can I promise. When is the meeting going to take place? Twilight asked as she wanted to know the time of the meeting so that she can be there on time.
"Well we must go immediatly. The meeting is set to start in five hours." Cadence said. Twilight stared in shock, Twilight became even more scared.
"But Cadence I need to practice!" Twilight exclaimed but Cadence pulled Twilight out of the chair hand handed Twilight's dance outfit to Twilight.
"Theres no time. We have to put down the insurgency now. Get dressed and meet me outside." Cadence said. Cadence left and Twilight stared at her outfit in disbelief.
Twilight could not believe what was happening, she felt as if she was having a nightmare, she punched herself hoping to wake up from this horrible dream but realized it was all real.
Twilight knew that the fates of everybody who lived in Equestria has fallen on her shoulders and Cadence's shoulders she knew that if they both messed up Equestria would be dragged into a war she has never attended such a high stakes meeting.
Twilight started to have a panic attack, she laid on her bed and breathed heavily thinking about how everything can go sour if Twilight or Cadence angers the insurgent leader.
Twilight wondered if she would have enough time to get her friends to stop the leader but then realized that she had no way of getting to them in time as it was all down to Cadence and her.
Soon it was time for Twilight to get to the meeting, she got dressed in her dance uniform and put on a pair of sneakers while she put her dance shoes in her bag.
She headed out to the meeting, as she traveled to the meeting by train she realized how dangerous and ridiculous this guy was.
Twilight wondered if Celestias and her friends knew about this high stakes missio because if they didnt their will be a warning signal that will warn them to take shelter which will go off in case things go sour.
Twilight soon got to the castle of the Crystal Empire and went inside and empty room with two chairs set in the middle to to see Cadence waiting their, Twilight walked up to her.
"Twilight go stand by the door, I'm sorry I dont have any chair for you to sit down." Cadence said. Twilight just sighed her heart started to pound due to fright. She stood by the door and soon Richard arrived and shook Cadences hand.
"Ah Cadence I'm glad you kept your side of the agreement in meeting me today." Richard said as he sat down and Cadence spoke with a calm voice.
"Of coarse I did. I made sure of it your excellency." Cadence responded. Twilght wanted to gag when she heard that. The monster didnt deserve that title no matter what type of leader he was.
"Let's get down to business then, since Celestia is a dumb bimbo with no idea on how making a deal works I'll make this simple since we both know that this situation shouldn't get ugly." Richard said. Twilight was appalled by this guy, she had never heard such disrespect against the princess. Twilight was hating this guy more and more.
"I think that would be best for all involved. Go right ahead." Cadence said. Richard nodded.
"I want to know what you will offer me Cadence, what do you have that is worth more than all the gold in Equestria? Surely you can tell me that." Richard said. Cadence got a look of fright in her eyes and Twilight could see it. Twilight wondered if Cadence was going to freak out but instead she kept her cool.
"We can give you security sir, we can give you wealth." Cadence said simply. Richard raised an eyebrow and frowned.
"Is that all? Wealth and security? I have that already so that offer isnt good enough." Richard said. Cadence took a few deep breaths to prevent herself from freaking out, she was already sweaty.
"We will give you security and wealth, If we give you that you must leave Equestria alone." Cadence said.
"Fair enough." Richard said. He shook Cadence's hand and they both turned to Twilight.
"Ah you must be Twilight Sparkle. Could you come here for a minute?" Richard said. Twilight froze in fright, she looked down at her shaky hands. She was so frightened, slowly she made her way to the leader. She finally stopped and Richard examined her.
"So your a princess arent you, Celestia gave you a throne and everything? You saved Equestria numerous times with the ever so powerful elements of harmony with your fear friends. Isnt that so fucking cute? You must be proud of yourself. Celestia must be so proud of you." Richard said sarcastically. Twilight gritted her teeth in anger. Cadence motioned for Twilight to respond with fear in her eyes.
Twilight wanted to kill this man so bad but knew that his followers would end Equestria if that happened, the man was sick and vile, he was even worse than Sombra. She coudlnt believe Twilight and Cadence were to kiss his ass during this meeting. The monster has already killed several people.
"Yes...that is correct." Twilight responded as she held back on her temper.
"That's what I thought. You must like dancing otherwise you wouldnt be a ballerina. How about we see how good you possibly are." Richard said.
Twilight prepared herself, she knew that she was only going to get one chance at making a good impression on this jackass if she failed she feared that she might be killed.
Twilighg wished she didnt have to do this and wished she could have her friends use the elements to help defeat this asshole but it would be to risky for that. This chance was her only hope.
"Yes sir." Twilight said, Twilight looked at Cadence for comfort and Cadence gave her an encouraging nod.
Twilight put her ballet shoes on and hesitated. She wanted to tell this guy to go fuck himself so bad.
Twilight went out onto the floor and looked at Cadence with hesitation. There she danced with all that she could. She put as much emotion into it as she can.
Luckily she didnt have to much mistakes but her mind still worried about what would happen if she made one little mistake. She didnt want to think about it.
Cadence watched Twilight with anxiety as she feared for Equestria. She wanted this to be over so she can go home reassured nothing horrible would happen.
Twilight began to become very sweaty as the threat of the destruction of Equestria rested on her mind. She danced so much she was aching.
Twilight feared that this sicko would never be that impressed no matter what she did, she knew that their would be no way to flee Equestria before the destruction came.
Cadence looked back and forth between them fearing for what would happen next, Twilight spilled out her emotions as she danced.
Twilight made sure not to mess one step ot make a fool of herself no matter how much of a negative view this guy had.
Twilight soon finished up the dance panting heavily, she looked at Richard with a nervous gaze. Cadence waited breathing heavily. Twilight and Cadence were both anxious.
"Thanks Twilight. Your performance was exceptional." Richard said. Twilight and Cadence sighed with relief. The disaster was averted. Richard got up and prepared to leave.
"Thanks for meeting with me Celestia, I am glad this did not have to resort to bloodshed. I will call off my army as long as you follow up on your promises." He said.
"Thank you. Dont worry I plan to uphold my vows." Cadence said.
The leader nodded and left, when he left Twilight and Cadence hugged. They both stayed like that for a bit and then they broke away from the hug.
"I'm so glad that didnt turn ugly. Thanks for your help Twilight." Cadence ssid.
"Your welcome." Twilight said while she nodded. Twilight went back to Ponyville and went inside her castle and got undressed from her outfit and put on regular clothing and then relaxed for the rest of the day as she was glad that the situation was resolved.
