I paced around my throne room. Celestia and Luna were on the way from Canterlot with Blueblood much to my displeasure.
"Twilight you just need to relax. I'm sure the girls will be fine."
I looked back at Spike and saw him sitting on my throne reading a comic book. I felt my right eye twitch as I looked at him. He looked up from his comic as I stared at him.
“You’ve all faced the worst villains in Equestria's history. Besides Applejack and Rainbow are good fighters so don’t worry so much.”
When he finished, he looked back down at his comic book. I sighed then nodded my head as I went back to waiting for the princess.
“Twilight we’re back!”
I heard Pinkie yell as she burst there the throne room door with a black cowpony hat with what sounded like a very angry pony running after her. Pinkie laughed as she hid behind her throne. I heard somepony sprinting behind her and into the throne room. My jaw dropped as I saw an Alicorn stallion with Ash colored fur with a black mane and tail. He had a beard of black and ash-grey in lines. He was dressed like a pony from Appaloosa but had no shirt on under his coat. Pinkie looked out from behind the throne a laugh that the angry stallion who ran into the room.
“HA HA!”
Pinkie laughed as she pulled the hat down on her head harder. He ran over to her as she bounced away from the throne. He chased after her as the other girls ran in. Rainbow flew over and grabbed Pinkie under her arms.
"Pinkie for the love of hay give the stallion his hat back."
Pinkie struggled as she tried to get free, but the stallion walked up to her then grabbed his hat off her head. He dusted his hat off then put the Stetson back on his head. He walked past me and heard him muttering something but I couldn't hear him.
I turned and looked at him as he made his way to the door.
“Um, Sir can I take a moment of your time?”
He stopped them looked down at me. His eyes were dark blue, and I felt like when I was a filly when Celestia looked down at me. He smiled after a second the patted my head. He walked back over to the girl's Rarity held a plain white bag with a rope around it out to him.
"Thanks"
Finally, he said something!
Rainbow yelled, and I had to guess he doesn't like to talk. I wave to him and spoke. “Um, Sir I’m one of the three princesses of Equestria.” He looked over at me with a raised eyebrow and scratched his head.
Jack pov
I looked down at a purple pony who had both wings and horn the same as me. I scratched my head as I looked down at her. 'I' m not to sure what to do. Did I now, shack her hand or kids is it may be.'
“No no, it's okay I’m still new at being a princess. So, you don't have to do anything like that besides your an alicorn too and.”
She was throwing her arms around and so I grabbed her arms making her stop, and she stopped talking as I looked at her. She laughed awkwardly as I let her go.
"Right sorry Sir."
"Jack."
My voice was still rough and three words in one day when was the last I spoke that much.
She nodded then took a step back with a light blush on her face. I laughed then walked over to the wall then leaned my back on it. She smiled as I gave her the chance to think of what she was going to say to me. The mare orange mare what a Stetson. I'm calling these horsewomen a mare like I would a normal female horse.
“Twilight we’re here.”
I looked over at the door when I heard a voice. I looked over to the door as I slide my thumbs into my belt beside my guns as I felt a heaviness in the air. ‘What is that?’ Two more like me and the Purple mare walked in a stallion behind them with a very annoyed face. The two mares were about a head shorter than me, but they gave me a strange feeling as I looked at them. One was white with a white dress with gold trim and a sun on her right thigh. Her hair was green pink and blue as with her tail. She had white fur and wings with purple eyes. The one beside her had dark blue fur and was wearing a dark dress. She had a long light blue main with light purple strick going down the top of it. Her wings were the same as her fur with blues. He had on a tux with a red rose in his front pocket. He had blonde hair with white fur and blue eyes. They all eyed me with jaws near the ground. I eyed the two mares that gave me a chill as they looked at me. ‘These two are going to be trouble.’
“A-a male alicorn!?”
The white mare yelled as she started to walk over to me. I drew my right revolver as she got close to me. She stopped, and the mares that came to get me looked at me like I was crazy. I turned my gun to the side then waved it back a few times. She backed up, and the orange mare walked in front of me. I lowered my gun as I looked at her. “Move," She started to sweat as she looked at me. She put her hands up as she looked at me.
“Why are you acting like this now? You were calm and collected before so why are you all bad now?”
I held my revolver backup and pointed it at the white mare again. “Instants."
“Ok, well why not just put that thing away or maybe just lower it.”
I used my thumb to pull the hammer back. She gulped then back away from her. I looked at her as she put her hands up as the orange mare had.
“Um, Sir Jack was it? I don’t know what I could have done, but maybe we could talk this out?”
I looked around and saw the blue one trying to walk around with the white mare and both of their horns glowing. I drew my other gun and pointed it at the blue one. “Don't.” The glowing stopped, and she held her hands out in front of her.
“Ok, lets calm down Sir Jack.”
I looked at the stallion who had hidden himself behind the white mare like a small child. I lowered and holstered my guns and grabbed my bag from off the ground. I started to walk to the door but the smaller alicorn I think it was rushed in front of me.
"Wait we need to find out where you came from and were you born like this or..."
I grabbed her mouth as I felt myself getting angry. "Stop." I let her mouth go and she back out of my way. I started to walk out of the room, but the white one grabbed my shoulder.
"Sir I can't just let you walk away from us. You are the only male alicorn we've ever seen.”
My killing instinct kicked in, and I dropped my bag. I grabbed her wrist and forced her to turn as I forced her arm into her back. “last warning.” She nodded her head then I let her go. I turned to grab my bag then walked out the door, but the orange mare rushed out behind me.
“Wait I can at least offer you the spear room we have at the farm.”
“Applejack are you sure?”
I heard the white mare say as I looked down at her. “Why?”
“You don’t know, do you? Any alicorn is considered royalty in Equestria.”
I blinked as I looked down at her. She nodded then I saw some of the other poke their heads out into the hall.
“We have a loft if you don’t mind staying in an old barn?”
For the first time in years, I spoke at length. “I don’t trust any of you yet, and I know you all don’t trust me after what just happened in there. All I ask is for a cot or maybe a small bed, and I can work for you to pay you back.” She smiled then held a hand out to me.
“That sounds just fine Jack.”
I shook her hand, and we left for her farm once the others calmed down. Everyone in the town looked at me as I walked than when we walked into the town square something hit my leg. I looked down, and I saw a little girl with light purple fur with blonde hair. She looked up at me, and she had golden eyes then looked back down the street.
“Dinky what’s wrong?”
The mare beside me asks as the child hid behind us and used my wings to cover herself.
“Dinky! Where are you!?”
I looked back the way she came and saw a mare with pink fur. She had a purple mane and tail. She was wearing a pair of pants with jeans on with a plain white shirt on. I looked down at the little girl, and she was watching the mare as she walked around. I pulled my coat around and covered her more as the mare looked at me, and I think her name was Applejack. She looked up at me then dropped to a knee.
“Y-your Highness!”
I raised an eyebrow as she looked at the ground. I looked down at her as I looked up at me. " Stand back up,” I spoke much more kindly as I looked at her. She stood up a moment a later, and I grabbed my coat moved my wing without really think about it moved on its own... ‘That‘s strange I don’t even know how I did that.’
“Hi, sis!”
The young girl yelled as she stood behind me. The young mare’s hair stood on end as she looked at her.
“DINKY!?”
I laughed as I patted the young girl’s head as she looked up at me. Her eyes widened as she looked at me.
“Your an alicorn so cool!”
I smiled then ruffed up her hair as she looked up at me.
“Come over here!”
She was jerked over to the mare by some pink glow. I blinked as she grabbed the young girl by the shoulders.
“Dinky you know that you can’t just address royalty so freely!”
I smiled as watched the two of them as they talked. I moved my bag and opened my bag then reached down to the bottom to grab one of the apples. I held them out to them, and the little filly grabbed the apple, but the mare took a second before taking it. When they had them I started to walk again Applejack quick to lead the way. After a long walk, we arrived at a farm. Out front of a barn was a large red stallion. He saw us walking up the entrance and he walked up to us. He walked up to me and I looked down at him. I had about five inches and he had long darker fur in his forearms with a bread starting to grow off his chin. He was in a pair of work jeans without a shirt and I could see he was no lightweight if he wanted to fight. But my shoulders or arms may be larger than his.
We looked at one another then Applejack spoke up.
“I’m going to go and see if dinner is ready.”
She ran off leaving us alone and I looked at the stallion as he chewed on a piece of strew. I nodded and he nodded back then we walked over to the fence. He rested his back and arms on it as he looked over the fields. I sat my bag down and looked over the farm. It seemed to be a fruit farm but all I saw was apples.
“Mind if I ask what an alicorn is doing here?”
I looked at him out of the corner of my eye as he looked over the farm. I sat down on the ground then answered. “Applejack offered me a place in your loft.” He nodded and I had a feeling we were going to get along well. I followed him to the barn and he took me up a set of steps hidden behind a stack of barrels. I nodded my head when he left and I went up to the loft and saw a door at the top. I open the door and saw a small room with a bed, standing closet, and a nightstand was beside the bed. 'Nicest place I've seen in years.' I walked over to the bed placing my bag down then laid on the bed-hopping to get a little sleep. 'I think I'll like it here.'
