Twilight groaned as Blueblood was on a rant. The moment she even tried to bring up her princess status, Blueblood has started this little rant. A rant, that had been going on for the past three hours.

If I had known bringing up my status as Equestria's newest alicorn princess would've triggered a rant from this jerk, I would've never agreed to have been here... Twilight thought to herself.

Flash, the guard assigned to her, suddenly slammed his hooves on the table. "With all due respect, Prince Blueblood, last I checked you're not the one in charge of this country, Princess Celestia is. And she officiated Princess Twilight's status. So, if you have a problem with Princess Twilight's status, maybe that's something you'd like to discuss with your aunt." Flash said.

That shut Blueblood up. "Well...yes...my aunt is in control of the country...but--"

"But nothing." Flash Sentry interrupted Blueblood. "Princess Celestia is the one you'd need to complain about Princess Twilight's royal status."

Shining Armor was speechless. ...Damn. Never thought anyone would stand up to Prince Blueblood like that. The former guard captain said.

"So, Prince Blueblood, are you willing to risk your own nobility by questioning Princess Celestia?" Flash Sentry asked.

"N-no..." Blueblood said simply. This Pegasus got me good. How am I supposed to respond to that? If I lash out at him after he dragged my aunt into this, it's going to get me removed from the nobility.

"Then I say the argument over Ponyville is pointless now." Flash Sentry said. "May you never bring this up again."

"Grr...don't think I'm done with arguing over Ponyville. Sooner or later, I will find an angle that will work." Blueblood said.

"You say that every time, nephew, and yet you always hit a dead end." Princess Celestia said. "Your time is better spent elsewhere."

"Hmph. We'll see." Prince Blueblood said. He then began to go out of the room. Just as he trotted over towards Twilight's area, attempting to do something demeaning to her that would rouse her, and put her on the spot, something sprang up from the floor and hit his torso area.

"Oooof...that's going to leave a mark..." Shining Armor winced.

"I-I don't remember putting anything like that in this room." Celestia said.

"Oh, I'm sure it's just some prank from your sister." Flash Sentry said.

"But how would she know a stallion's weak point?" Shining Armor asked.

"Well, I have tried to get pregnant before." Luna stated.

"Wait, you've had stallions come and mate with you?!" Celestia exclaimed at her sister.

"You don't know everything about me." Luna said.

Flash Sentry, meanwhile, was hiding a smirk. Yeah, let's see the prince rebound from this. And also figure out who really hid that little contraption.
