Equestrian Mustang

Junus 18 999 ANF

I was at Cel's side in court again and listening to one of the most pompous and whiny beings I've ever seen. He was a white coated unicorn with a blond mane and tail and with the way he preened, must have thought he was Faust's gift to mares.

His complaint?

A maid had got one single drop of water on his coat and he was asking that she should be fired and sentenced to 10 years in the dungeon. All sound stopped when my hoof connected my forehead.

"Are you sure this little shit is a descendant of High Born" I grumbled at Cel.

"Yes?"

I looked at the turd for a moment. "I guess I can see it, but High wasn't a asshole like this moron is. Don't get me wrong, he had his moments, but he wasn't a self centered, egotistical shit pile like he is all the time." The room grew quite when I said that. Looking at the little whiner, I could see he was on the verge of a massive bitch fit.

"I will have you know that I am Prince Blueblood and you have overstayed your welcome here. GUARDS!!! Remove this thing."

I just smiled at him before laughing. I knew he would try this after Cel had told me about him and was prepared for it.

"Two things. First, you have no authority over the guards. NONE!! Second, you can't be a Prince for the simple fact that your not married to a alicorn. Just because your adopted into the royal line doesn't give you the right to call yourself a Prince. Marriage to one of the Princesses is the only way you can be called a Prince and the only alicorn I know that isn't married is right here." I knew of Cadenza, but hadn't talked to her yet.

"Well, in that case your not a prince either. There are only two alicorns."

"Wrong little horn head. Celestia is my sister in law. What do you think that means" I asked him with a sadistic grin. I figured I better answer for him before what little brains he has explodes.

"That's right. Celestia has a sister and I'm married to her and have been for a long time. Now, I suggest you get out of my sight before I get irritated and you won't like me when I get that way."

"I will ma..."

"If you finish that sentence and I take it as a threat, you'll find yourself banished to the wasteland."

"You don't have that kind of authority."

"Actually, he does have that authority Blueblood. If he wanted to strip you of your title and more, well, there's not much I could do to stop him and don't think the council will help you either. The binding magic of the foundation laws of the kingdom still would recognize him as the ruling Prince and since there would be two rulers available, the council has no power now."

Looking at his thunder struck face was especially entertaining for me. I knew Cel was enjoying this since she told me the council had been pushing their own agenda for awhile, but since I'm back, they can't do squat now.

"That is preposterous. The council..."

"Can't do buck all with two rulers on the throne. The founders of Equestria set it up that way so morons like you couldn't screw up what so many ponies died for. Even we have to follow the laws and it was determined that alicorns are the only ones with the magic to enforce those laws. Because I'm married to Luna, I have to abide by those as well. That is why I carry the title of Guardian, because I'm bound to enforce said laws. The council was created as advisory body for the Princesses. They hold no true power and I see it has become a bloated caricature of itself. Now leave before you see me pissed off."

I guess he got the idea and left in a huff. Pompous asshole I thought to myself. I need to keep an eye on that puffed up pile of shit, but then again, if he fucks up I can do as I said I would do.

One of the perks of being a mustang is we generally have access to more than just the magic we're born with. In the years I've spent with Luna, I learned how to dream walk and for some reason I decided to walk the dreams of others this night and found one who shouldn't be here or I should say I didn't expect.

I felt her presence before I could see her.

"Luna?" Looking behind me I could see my wife standing there in shock as she looked at me.

"Whinny? Tis it truly you?" She was still in her altered form, but looking into her eyes assured me she was still there.

"Yes my heart, it is me" I said to her before gathering her up into a embrace.

"Where are you" I heard her ask.

"Sharing a bed with our sister. She has hardly left my side since I returned and she is hoping that you would return as yourself in a few days." She scoffed at my words.

"That fat flanked whorse could care less about us, especially you. She regarded you as barely a second class citizen."

"Then watch this and hear her words" I said to her as the conversation we had the other night played out from my point of view. When it was over Luna didn't say anything for a few minutes, but she did shuffle into my embrace more.

"Sister meant every word. I could feel her pain. I could feel all of the pain she has carried for the last thousand years." Luna was crying and that was one thing I couldn't stand. She was too kind and gentle to cry.

"I know my heart. All she has wanted was to have her family back at her side. I thought that leaving was the right thing to do. I see now that it was not the correct choice, but I do believe it forced her to realize what was the most important part of her life and waits eagerly for you to return since your the last part of the puzzle for her to be truly happy again."

"Three more nights my love, then all will be right again."

I couldn't wait.
