"You found him?" Amiticia said to Shining Armor as he and Cadence brought in a changeling they found in the Crystal Empire.

"Seems he was so nervous we'd prosecute him, but when we told him you wanted to see him, he revealed himself to us." Shining Armor said.

"You've found my brother, King Amiticia...I can't thank you enough." Pharynx said.

"I apologize for not coming to you sooner your highness, I was scared that it was a prank or perhaps even a trick by our mother..." Thorax said.

"It is no trick Thorax; our mother really did sacrifice herself and wanted us to live together with Ponies in peace." Amiticia said. "No need to hide anymore; we are welcomed by ponies with open arms." He added.

"I think that's in a large part because of you, King Amiticia. It seems word spread of Chrysalis's sacrifice and your support to Equestria's newest Princess during Lord Tirek's Rampage. Now all of pony kind more or less is willing to consider Changelings just as much of an accepted race as much as ponies themselves." Cadence said.

"With that, we should take our leave. Take care sis." Shining Armor said before he and Cadence left.

"I guess you were right...all that truely matters is what's on the inside." Starlight said.

"Your friend Sunburst is up next on the 'to find list'. Reuniting with him would help you immensely I feel." Amiticia said.

"Right now, I'm just waiting to hear back from Princess Celestia about Sunburst." Twilight said. Spike came in holding a letter. "...Well that didn't take long. I sent that letter an hour ago." Twilight said.

"I don't think this is about Sunburst; this letter was marked as an emergency send." Spike said.

"Emergency send? What's that?" Amiticia said.

"It means it's a high priority message." Twilight said, she took the letter into her magic and started reading it.

"If it's high priority, Sunburst can wait." Starlight said.

"Let's see here...oh you've got to be kidding me!" Twilight said.

"What is it?" Amiticia asked.

"It's that no good pompous know it all Prince Blueblood. Seems he's still trying to get Ponyville to be demolished all because things happened at the first Grand Galloping Gala me and my friend attended." Twilight said.

"Seems I'm out of the loop again. Exactly what happened at that Gala?" Amiticia asked.

"Well..." Twilight began.


"...Okay, how can anyone blame Ponyville for that?" Amiticia asked.

"This Prince Blueblood doesn't sound like a nice guy..." Starlight said.

"No. No he's not. He's so stuck up on himself that he thinks he's better then everypony else. It's so sickening. Ugh...guess I'll have to go take care of this mess once and for all." Twilight said.

"I'm coming with you. No way am I letting you go alone." Amiticia said.

"Your highness?" Pharynx questioned.

"Ponyville is where Twilight's Castle is, in case you forgot. Pharynx, until I come back, watch the home front. I'm going to be giving this Prince Blueblood a piece of my mind." Amiticia said. "Because if he dares threaten the home of the Princess of Friendship, then he'll have to answer to the Changeling of Friendship." He added and went to go pack.

"Damn that's the second time Amiticia really sticks his neck out for you, Princess Twilight. Seems you mean a lot to him." Pharynx said.

"I don't think it's just my neck he's looking out for this time..." Twilight said.


Hours later, Twilight and Amiticia arrived at Canterlot, and found Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, and some pony Amiticia didn't recognize next to them all.

"Thank you for coming on such short notice, Twilight." Celestia said.

"So, your really willing to just defend what happened then? It doesn't change things that your a Princess. In fact, I refuse to acknowledge you. However..." The unfamiliar pony said. "I might be willing to change my mind and overlook what happened, if you agree to an arranged marriage with me." He added.

"...Are you the one referred to as Prince Blueblood?" Amiticia asked.

"Huh...at least someone is knowingly addressing me by my title. Yes, I am the ever so valiant--" Blueblood said before suddenly his mouth was shut off by Amiticia's magic.

"Let me make one thing very clear to you then: You may be a Prince, but I am a King. And I am currently; as you ponies say; Twilight's coltfriend. So I'd advise changing that tune around the likes of me if you want to keep that title of yours." Amiticia said and released Blueblood from his magic.

"This is absurd! Your threatening the likes of me?" Blueblood said.

"Well Amiticia is not wrong: He is the King of the Changelings right now. And I would definatly advise treating him with the proper authority." Princess Celestia said.

"Hmph. You expect me to acknowledge the title of some non-pony creature? I don't care what he's done to be gifted his tittle, he's not nobility." Blueblood said.

"Hate to break this too you, Blueblood, but Amitica's mother was Queen Chrysalis, and since she named him as her heir to the throne when she died, how about you do the logic from there?" Twilight asked. Blueblood's jaw dropped.

"You...surely must be joking. Your joking with me right?" Blueblood said.

"Nope. Afraid not bucko. And I have since relocated the hive I inherited from my mother to Twilight's Castle in Ponyville. So by threatening to demolish Ponyville, you are also threatening demolishing the new location of my hive. So I'd choose your words from here on out VERY carefully." Amiticia said.

Oh Amiticia's wasting no time backing that no good Blueblood into a corner. One wrong move and it's no more prince title for Celestia's Nephew. Twilight thought to herself.

"M-my apologies your lordship! I guess if equestria's newest Princess is dating one of such high standing such as yourself, then who am I to get in the way of that? I suppose I'll also back off on demolishing Ponyville, provided those five ponies who were with Princess Twilight on that night turn themselves in." Blueblood said.

"Those ponies are my friends, and I won't allow you to prosecute them under any circumstances!" Twilight said.

"Oh come on now, you simply cannot be excusing their actions." Prince Blueblood said.

"In case you've got short-term memory, allow me to tell your the list of their accomplishments: They've successfully cleansed Nightmare Moon and made her go back to being Princess Luna; they've managed to overcome and reform Discord; and above all else, they also made sure the magic Lord Tirek stole went back to the owners he stole it from. So after all that, your still going to prosecute five of Equestria's heroes?" Amiticia asked.

"Someling's been paying attention to the things I've told him." Twilight said.

"Thank you." Amiticia said.

"THAT DOESN'T MATTER! I DEMAND JUSTICE!" Blueblood said.

"ENOUGH!" Celestia said in the royal canterlot voice. "Blueblood, I am ashamed to call you my nephew right now. But your words and actions here today leave me no choice. After an account from Rarity about your own actions and words towards her at the gala, I was hoping that was a one time thing, but it seems that you have learnt nothing." Celestia said. "So by royal decree, I hearby strip you of your royal tittle and consider you exiled from Equestria. Pack your things, nephew of mine; your leaving." She added.

"WHAT?! THIS IS ABSURD!" Prince Blueblood said.

"NOW!" Celestia said.

"I'd advise doing what she says." Amiticia said.

"You'll pay for this! All of you will! I'll make sure of it eventually!" Blueblood said and went to go pack his things. Shining Armor approached Amiticia. Twilight was worried that Shining Armor was going to pull the overprotective big brother routine on Amiticia.

"Thanks for sticking up for my sister and her friends." Shining Armor said.

"I'm the Changeling of Friendship; I wouldn't be living up to my title if I didn't do that." Amiticia said.

"Your alright in my book Amiticia. Twilight couldn't have picked a better coltfriend." Shining Armor said.

"Thanks...I think..." Amiticia said, a bit confused.

"Just a word of warning: You better not break her heart, or you'll have me to answer to." Shining Armor said.

"Trust me, Shining Armor; I wouldn't dare break Twilight's heart." Amiticia said. "I'd sooner feed myself to a hydra then do that." He added. Shining Armor whistled as Amiticia and Twilight left.

Oh he's really in love with my sister; that much I can say for sure. He didn't even flinch. Guy's got a hell of a spine. And that's after he stood up to Blueblood; BLUEBLOOD. I've seen noble ponies back off of that guy but Amitica? He wasted no time in pulling his weight. Backed the pompous jerk into a corner without a second thought. Twily's lucky to have him. Shining Armor thought to himself.


Author's Note

Amiticia must really love Twilight with all his heart if he's willing to waste no time in backing the now ex-prince Blueblood into a corner and not even batting an eyelash at Shining Armor.
So what will become of the nephew of Princess Celestia from here? Only time will tell.
