Celestia has made some progress with the law, but there's still much to do and she sent a letter to my parents.
Right now I was just laying on my back in my room bored out of my mind, and had nothing to do.
"I wonder what Celestia is doing right now." I said as I got out of bed and walked out of the room.
"She should be in day court right now." I said as I looked around the castle.
I found a maid after a few minutes of looking.
"Hello excuse me, do you know where the throne room is?" I asked.
"Oh, it's down this hallway third door on the right." She said with a smile so I followed her directions, until I found the throne room and I peeked inside.
"You can't deny the evidence princess Celestia." A voice said as I got a good look inside.
It was the mare from before, but now I have a better look at her her mane was dark green, her fur was a very pale lavender and her cutie mark appeared to be a magic book.
"The matter has already been closed Gracious Grimoire, Spyro will remain in the castle untill I can remove that law since he's here, he is properly watched so there is no worry." Celestia said as she sat on her throne.
"We can't have a threat like this remain in the city and I asked around, and got 30 signatures for the baby dragon's execution." She said holding a list in her magic.
Celestia took the list from her magic grasp, and read it before throwing it to the other side of the throne room.
"I am extremely disappointed that you ponies would even consider killing a child, I have seen you nobles do wicked things, but this is a new low even for you Gracious." She said angrily before Gracious let out a gasp.
"Me, why I don't know what your talking about." She said with fake sincerity in her voice.
"Don't play dumb I know about your dealings in the black market, the only reason your not behind bars is because of my lack of proof." Celestia said glaring at the mare
"Says the one who can't obey her own laws, the one you created." She said with a smug look on her face then added.
"What are you really after, what do you stand to gain from Spyro's death?" Celestia asked.
"Nothing I am just upholding the law, the one you refuse to, and I am protecting the citizens of canterlot." She said happily.
"Don't lie to me!" Celestia shouted at the grinning mare, but she was unfazed.
"You better decide quickly because if you chose wrong you just might lose your position as Princess." Gracious said.
"What are you talking about there is no law that would allow the nobles to dethrone me." Celestia said with confidence in her voice as stood up from her throne.
"Yes there is." Gracious said.
"And what is this law?" She asked.
"If any noble has shown signs of corruption by dark magic, or otherwise the nobles can vote and if the noble is removed from their position and you protecting that dragon shows clear signs that you are under the influence of his magic, even if you're not, I don't think the other nobles will pass up a chance to remove you from power." Gracious explained.
"I'm the only one that has the power to keep the other kingdom at bay from attempting to conquer Equestria, my power keeps the world balanced." Celestia argued.
"In case you've forgotten, you already made plans if anything ever happened to you and I think we can easily handle them by threatening to bring the sun a little closer to their kingdoms." Gracious said with a evil grin.
'She would threaten the other kingdoms with droughts.' I Thought as I looked at the mare with disgust.
Gracious started to make her way out of the room as Celestia said.
"You won't get away with this." She said and Gracious stopped right in front of the door before turning her head to say.
"I already have." She said then laughed as she walked out not even noticing me and as she left I saw something flicker in her eyes as she disappeared from sight..
After that I ran to my room and slammed the door and I felt tears running down my face, as I thought about how this would affect my new family, they would be devastated.
There was a knock on the door and Celestia walked in.
"Spyro you ok the maids told me you ran to your room with tears in your eyes." Celestia asked.
I looked away from her as I said. "I heard everything." I didn't look at her, as I heard her get on the bed, and she suddenly embraced me with her wings.
I looked at her and she looked me me with caring eyes as she wrapped her front hooves around me as she laid beside me.
"It's ok I won't let them hurt you." She told me and I felt relaxed in her embrace as I let her pull me closer.
"But what can I do?" I asked.
"Just stay safe if the worst comes to pass, I will arrange transport to the dragon lands, i have a few favors I can use." She told me as I suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion flow through me, as my eyes struggled to stay open.
"But what about you?" I asked.
"Don't worry about me I can deal with the nobles, this isn't the first time they have tried this." She told me as she held me against her chest, and I could hear her heartbeat as I fell asleep.
