Private tutor was waiting patiently outside the Castle.It was 6 pm to be precise and his informant would be arriving soon. Hopefully with good news.

"Aaahh..."

The noble gave a approving nod to the approaching pony."Still punctual to the minute Hermes, I do hope you bring pleasing news."

"Yes I do your lordship," said Hermes."His Highness Blueblood has fallen for the trap."

Private tutor smiled."Good news indeed! Tell me everything that transpired."

Hermes gave slight bow."I will tell you everything I know my lord but unfortunately I only arrived at the ending of their argument."

Private tutor waved a hoof."No worries, it is not your fault.You went according to the time. Blueblood it seemed went earlier than expected."

"Thank you for forgiving me sire. As for my recount, Blueblood was arguing with the unicorn guard called Shining Armour, while the earth pony was trying to break the fight only to be hit on the face with a chair."

"With a chair ? "

"Yes sire, Prince Blueblood in a rage I have never seen before threw it with such force that the Farm pony was sent flying back with the chair."

Private tutor chuckled."It seemed the plan worked too perfectly."

"That is not all sire." Hermes continued."The prince then promptly left the inn only to be stopped again by his friends near Donut Joe's store.The same cycle repeated itself once again.The unicorns arguing and the earth pony trying to stop it.It carried on for ten minutes until Prince blueblood said words that were sharper than a thousands arrows to the earth pony. It was so bad sire...even I wanted to cry."

Private gave an irritated sigh."Is that all Hermes, please I do not want to know about your feelings on the matter."

"Yes my lord."

"OK, you did a good job Hermes," said Private tutor, levitating a bag of bits to the Pegasus."You may leave."

"Thank you sire. I forgot to tell you that Blueblood is his bed chambers right now... crying"

Private tutor watched the Pegasus as he flew of into the distance.

"It seemed the prince in his insecurity fell for it hook, line and sinker," grinned Private tutor as he walked into the castle.He had some messages to send to the nobles of Canterlot. A new age has begun.


Author's Note

Please note that some chapters will be short.Sorry !

*The reason why Hermes referred to Cobalt as a farm pony is because it is another term for earth ponies because of their closeness with nature
