MLP story

After a month since she recieved her cutie mark, Midnight Tempest been working really hard to control her dreamwalker-like power. With the only other dreamwalker in Canterlot, Princess Luna Allnight, her adopted mother, teaching her, Midnight has made a big improvement. The after-effects, when she wakes up, still takes their toll on the filly.

"Ugh! Mornings are getting more annoying by each passing moonrise."Midnight trying to wake up under the brightness of the sun that her aunt, Celestia, had risen.

Than there was a knock on the her bedchamber door, "Midnight, you up, yet, sweetie?" said a familar voice.

"I'm up, but I want to sleep, Mother." Midnight moaned towards the door.

Her door open, revealing Luna, as she slowly walks into her adopted daughter's room, "I know and sorry that your body is still not adjusted to it quite yet. It took me three years to get adjusted to it."

"Three years? But, Mother, you are pracically a Goddess." Midnight, sounding stunned, but lacked energy.

"I maybe a goddess, but even I have limits, as well, my little filly." Luna nuzzled her daughter, "Come on. Maybe after eating something, you will have the energy you need."

"Alright, Mother. I get the message. I'm getting up." Midnight groaned as she stood up.

Luna smiled. Than they walked towards the door, but Midnight walked into the wall right-side of the door.

"Ow! That's smart!" Midnight rubbed her snout.

"I know how that feels too." Luna nuzzled Midnight.

Before long, they arrived, without another incident, at the Great Hall. Where Celestia was waiting, quite patientily, for them. When they took their seats, this time Midnight was sitting along side Luna, they start eating their oatmeal. Normally, after breakfast, Celestia teaches her niece in the ways of being a princess, while Luna takes over Celestia's duties during that timeframe, but not today.

"Midnight, I'm going to be busy after breakfast, including Luna. So you have today's lesson as permission to explore Canterlot, if you want." Celestia said.

"Okay. I kinda want to check out Canterlot, and not be hated for being filthy." Midnight smiled.

Before she moved into the castle, she was abandoned by her Earth Pony parents whom hated her for her Pegasi wings. She spent most of her life eating out of garbage cans. It was during one such garbage hunt, is when Luna found her and took her under her wing.

As soon as she was done, Midnight left the castle. As she was walking, she found herself in front of the Canterlot Library, a public library and is the only library, outside of the castle, in all of Canterlot. She walked inside and was at awe of how huge the library could be. She bumped into a tan-colored unicorn with brown eyes and black mane. The unicorn, imendilly faced Midnight and drove its face into the floor.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." said the unicorn.

"You can stop that. I'm the one who should be saying that." Midnight lifting the unicorn up, "The name's Midnight Tempest, and you are?"

The unicorn backed up, bowed her head, with her hooves  close together, "Konichiwa, I'm Bunko Chou, I'm a foregin exchange student from Mahna. I'm a Unicorn who's a blank flank, the only one in my small village."

"Do you want to be friends? I don't have any." Midnight sighed.

"I don't have any, myself, Midnight-chan." Bunko looked away, than back at Midnight, "Sure."

Happily, Midnight hugged Bunko, but she didn't felt comfortable with the hugging. Midnight soon let her new friend go and followed her back to where Bunko had her stuff. There were books all over the table. Midnight helped Bunko clean up her mess, than they left together. As they were walking and talking, they saw one of the Canterlot guards chasing after a Sapphire-blue earth pony filly with Emerald-Green eyes and Neon-colored rainbow mane. They chased after them.

"Get back here!" ordered the guard.

"No way!" the filly said, "I'm Neon and my game is!"

Than the filly named Neon jumped up one wall, than jumped onto the opposite wall, continued a few more steps, than leapt back to the first wall. Neon kept this until she was on top of somepony's roof. She was laughing as the earth pony guard couldn't reach her, and left. Than she jumped down to the waiting duo.

"Did you guys see what I just did?" Neon boasted.

"The whole jumping part, yes. What caused that guard to chase you, no." Midnight shooked her head, "I'm Midnight Tempest, and this is my friend Bunko Chou.", whom bowed, "You're Neon?"

"Yeah, dude! Neon Parkour is my name as well as my game!" Neon boasted.

"Well, glad to meet you. Why are you out here instead home with your parents? It's almost dark." Midnight pointed to the sky.

"I have none since the Solar Empire took them away. While I was growing up, they hated her and made sure I knew it. They also mentioned about a filly that they had, but discarded her for she didn't match our family." Neon said.

"Who are your parents?" Bunko asked.

"Darkness Tempest and his mare, Silent Walker." Neon said.

Midnight kicked at a garbage can, and it richoet off of the walls onto somepony's roof. She kicked it out of anger.

"I never thought I will hear those two names ever again." Midnight growled.

Neon looked at Midnight with awe, "How come?"

"They were the parents whom abandoned ME!" Midnight yelled, and kicked another garbage can onto the same roof as the last one.

"Which means, you two are sisters." Bunko said, in awe, "I'm an only child."

"Well, what to stay with me, Midnight? Since we are sisters?" Neon said.

"I was going to ask you that, since not only we are sisters, but I have a home." Midnight nerviously giggled.

"I follow you, sis." Neon hoof-bumped Midnight.

"May I come too?" Bunko asked, quietly.

"Of course, Bunko. My adopted mother and aunt would allow it." Midnight said, as the group walked towards the castle.

Midnight's friends were surprised to see the royal guards allowing Midnight onto the castle grounds, at night.  When they entered the Grand Hall, a loud, regal voice boomed throughout the chamber.

"Midnight Tempest! Why are you late getting home!" Luna's voice echoed.

"I'm sorry, Mother. I met a couple new friends and one of them is my sister, by blood."Midnight yelled, at her best imitation of Luna's Regal Voice.

Than Luna came down the stairs into the Grand Hall. Midnight ran up and nuzzled her adoptive mother, whom nuzzled back.

"Nice imitation, but it still needs practice." Luna continued to nuzzle, "I was so worry."

"I wasn't trying to make you worry, Mother." Midnight than motioned towards her friends, "This is Bunko Chou. She's  from Mahna as an exchange student. And this is Neon Parkour. She's my sister, from the parents whom abandoned me."

"Princess Luna Allnight." Neon bowed.

"Luna-hime." Bunko bowed, once again, directly into the ground.

"Thank you. I'm guessing that you two are spending the night here?"

"Hai." Bunko bowed, and Neon jumped, "Hell Yeah!"

"You two can wash up in there and find your places near foot of the table." Luna motioned, Than looked down at Midnight, "As for you, daughter, you need to bathe and look more presentable for our guests."

"Do I really have to, Mother?" Midnight doing her best bratty child imitation.

"Yes, Midnight." Luna smiling.

"Alright." Midnight sighed.

Midnight walked to her room and bathed. She put on one of her favorite dark colored dresses, made by a unicorn named Rarity, whom Midnight never met. The only pony fron Ponyville she did meet, was Twilight. The dress  has thin strips of reflective silver in the lower part of the dress. When she entered the Great Hall, her friend and sister, almost fell out of their seats at the sight. When Midnight sat down along side Luna, she noticed one pony isn't there.

"Mother, Where's Auntie?" Midnight inquired.

"She's in Ponyville. She left while you were gone, and she won't be back until tomorrow, after the sunrise." Luna sighed, "The sun that I must lift."

"I wish I could help, Mother." Midnight looked gloomly into her bowl, "But I am not a unicorn, nor an alicorn."

"It's alright, sweetie. I'm used to doing it myself." Luna tickling Midnight's left ear.

"Mother!" Midnight proclaimed, "Not in front of my friends!"

Luna giggled, "It cheered you up, didn't it?"

"I wish I could what that Apple friend of Twilight's does when she gets embarressed." Midnight grumbled.

Midnight looked over to her friends. She saw Neon snickering, while looking at her. While Bunko, she looked intriqued by how Midnight interact with Luna. After they were done, Neon raced ahead, but got lost. Midnight and Bunko found her and lead back towards Midnight's chamber. As soon as they were inside, and the door closed, Neon started laughing.

"Luna playfully biting a eartip of a filly!" Neon laughed.

"I actually find it interesting. My mother never does that with me." Bunko stated.

"Well, I'm gotten used to it, but I wish she didn't done it in front of you two." Midnight grunted, as she removed her dress, "I also can't wait until Auntie Celestia returns."

Upon hearing the name, Neon stopped laughing and ran over to Midnight, whom was walking out from behind the blind.

"Did you just said, 'Celestia'?" Neon inquired.

"Of course, Neon, she is my aunt after all." Midnight wondered, "Why?"

"She's the leader of the Solar Empire! She's the one whom took my parents away!" Neon exclaimed.

"If you want me to, I can ask Mother about them." Midnight sighed, "Surely, you can trust my mother, the goddess of the moon, stars and everything night, right?"

Neon thought hard about what Midnight just said, before saying, "Guess you're right, Midnight."

Than Midnight left to talk to Luna, whom was in her own chamber, higher up the Lunar Tower. Midnight knocked on Luna's door, which Luna replied, "Yes, Midnight?"

"I have a question, I would like to ask you, inside and privately. Please, Mother?" Midnight sounding more childish than a proper princess should.

Luna, magically, opened her double-wide doors, allowing Midnight into her highly luxurous bedchamber. Luna was looking outside at the full moon, than Midnight laid along side her.

"What is it, my little Midnight?" Luna asked without looking at Midnight.

"Neon told me, just now, that Auntie Celestia took her parents away. I want to know if it is true?" Midnight cuddled her elegant Mother.

Luna sighed, "Unfortually, there are times where we princesses must dish out punishment, rather than rewards."

"LIke when dealing with Discord, whom is ready to soak us with a bucket of water, from behind." Midngiht not moving her head away from the moon.

"How did you know I was here the whole time? You're not even a unicorn?' Discord grumpily proclaim.

"Dealing with you antics after the Ponyville Six tamed your Dracoian tail, Discord. Or should I use your proper name, Discordius Dracodius." Midnight sighed at saying Discord's proper name, to his shagrin.

Out of rage, Discord teleported himself back to his room. Luna smiled, but never looked away from the moon.

"Precisely, Midnight." Luna smiled, "We kinda did punished them, but they are currently living in the Crystal Empire, doing hundred-hour community service. We tried to capture their rumboncus daughter, so she can live with them there, but we couldn't capture her at all. Well, you did, Midnight."

"I'll go tell her the good news." Midnight exclaimed as she opened her wings and flew back to her bedchamber.

As soon as she got inside, she told Neon everything, including the part with Discord. Before long, Neon was happy and agree not to make any more mischief while in Canterlot, but she actually enjoy being away from her parents, whom are bossy. After doing some other slumber party games and other actiivities, they went to bed.

Before her friends woke up, Midnight was up, in time to watch Luna, whom normally manliplate the Moon, raise the Sun. Midnight ran up to her mother, and nuzzled her. They walked to the Great Hall. Than Midnight's friends reunited with her. Once everypony was sitting, Celestia returned.

"Auntie!" Midnight exclaimed, running up to Celestia.

Celestia nuzzled her young niece. "Enjoyed yourself yesterday?"

"Yes, I did. I made a couple new friends, one of them just so happens to be my younger sister. Prevented Discord from pulling a prank on Mother and I. And got my younger sister, Neon Parkour, to stop causing mischief ever again." Midnight proclaimed.

Celestia smiled, "That sure was a busy day learning a lesson in friendship."

Than a letter magically appeared in front of Luna. "It's from Twilight. She's in the Crystal Empire. I'll read it."

Luna opened the letter and read it. Her face was beginning to show some anger, than she passed the letter over to Celestia to read.

"Twilight and Cadence has requested for you, Midnight. They have a filly, whom isn't talking, and not even Twilight could get the filly to talk." Celestia said.

"Alright, Auntie. I'll get my stuf and be ready to go." Midnight walking towards the door.

Neon raced in front of her, "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! No without us, Midnight."

"I'm sorry, but if the Cryatal Princess, as well as Twilight wanted me to show, than I must do it alone, Neon." Midnight placing her right frontal hoof onto Neon's shoulder, "I appreciate the offer."

Bunko walked up to Midnight and placed one foreleg onto Midngiht's back, "Midnight, just think of us as your personal escort and guards, seeing that your dream, as you told me, before we met Neon, was to be exactly like your mother. After meeting her, I'm guessing, that you want to become a princess, am I correct?"

Midnight thought hard, than sighed, "Yes, it is, Bunko. Fine, you win. You can come, both of you." when she looked over at Neon.

All Neon did was a hoofpump and smiled. Bunko just simply smiled, and was a bit surprised that she would touch another pony. Midnight looked like she was defeated, temporarilly, before challenging Neon to a race, and took a head start.

"HEY! NO FAIR!" Neon screamed back at her sister.

The three raced until they arrived at Midnight's room. They helped her gathered her stuff, than raced back to Luna. Bunko was always last place, but Midnight and Neon were, literally, neck-to-neck, both times. Luna smiled at the specticle, than lead the trio to her carriage, whom were waiting. When they climbed in, the carriage pullers took off.

Bunko looked a little nervous and sick. She vomited in the carriage three times by the time they arrived at the Crystal Palace. Midnight and Neon were both glad to be out of the carriage after that trip. Twilight walked up to them and hugged Midnight.

"I'm glad you could make it." Twilight smiled, "Who are they?"

"This is Neon Parkour, she happens to be my younger sister, from the same parents whom abandoned me." Midinght pointed towards Neon, than at the sickly looking Bunko, "And that is Bunko Chou from Mahna. Apprentilly, flying isn't her strong suit."

Bunko walked over, and fell over herself, as she was trying to bow. Neon and Midnight helped her back onto her feet, than the four of them walked inside. Once Bunko was given a bowl of water and a place to lay down for a bit, the rest walked into another room.

"That filly won't speak to me nor Cadence." Twilight explained, "I hope that maybe a filly whom isn't an alicorn nor a guard could get her to talk."

"Alright, I''ll let Neon try first, while I wait in the corner." Midnight nudged her sister to follow her.

They walked into the room, and there sat a silvery-grey coated pegasi with gold eyes and blue mane. She was looking very nervious, and was looking everywhere. Midnight walked over to the futhurst corner from the door, while Neon sat across from the filly.

"Can you, please, tell us your name? At least we can talk on a more personal level." Neon said.

"I...I'm Clothilde Heilwige." Clothilde nerviously, "I like to be called 'Hilda'."

Midnight recognized the the accent that Hilda has, and she doesn't like it. She started to paw the ground, out of anger. Bunko was feeling better and rushed inside, upon learning Midnight's behavior. Even Neon felt uneasy about Midnight's pawing.

"Ignore her, Hilda. Where did you came from?" Neon than looked at her sister, than back at Hilda, "I promise to protect you if she move closer."

"I used to live in Hoovaria." Clothilde shyfully mentioned.

There was a fury of activity after that. Midnight opened her wings and charged at Hilda. Bunko and Neon, together, struggled to pin Midnight down, and even ask for aide. Twilight teleported into the room, with Cadence running in. With their combined magic, they were able to subdue Midnight, and escort her out of the room. Once the pegasi and two alicorns were gone, Neon laid down in the corner, while Bunko resume talking.

"We would like to know, why are you in Crystal, when you live in Hoovaria?" Bunko inquired.

"Well, after the Equestian forces destroyed my home, but I don't blame them, Ferninand Shuster the Second was killed. By right, Elsa Shuster, his daughter and second-in-command, ought to taken his place, but she was captured, as well as her loyal bodyguard, Col. PrussiaBron. Lieutenant General Ludwig Shuster, Ferninand's baby brother, assumed the reins. I figure it was a Coup d'tat." Clothilde began to cry, "After that I ran as fast as I can. He reformed Hoovaria, as well as the nations of Swisherland, Austneigha, and Liechtrotstein, to from the Hoovarian Confederacy. When Austneigha joined the Confederacy, Hoofgary joined as well."

When Bunko told a guard to pass along the information, the grey-coated, with black-blue mane and violet eyes saluted and left. The guard was wearing a golden armor of Celestia's. The guard had a mark of a musical note on its flank.

"Princesses!" the guard saluted.

"Yes, MonsterKitty?" Cadence asked.

The Equestian guard known as Lt. MonsterKitty explained everything to the three. Then, a more calmed Midnight followed the Liutentent to the room where Hilda was. Midnight walked into the room and apoligized to her for everything.

"I might not trust you, yet, but I shouldn't hate you for what your leaders had done to me." Midnight hating herself for jumping to conclusions.

Hilda wrapped her forelegs around Midnight, "They told me everything. After that, even I would try to kill. But we need to rescue Elsa and PrussiaBron."

"I have a friend whom could help. His name is Wolf Appledore, but known better by his codename, 'Spell-Weaver'." MonsterKitty overhearing the fillies, "Just don't destroy his books."
