Meeting the Snobbish Prince!


In a sky chariot headed for the regal city of Canterlot, Ben and his wives were on their way to meet with Celestia's nephew about the atrocities that nearly befell Sunset Shimmer. Ben was surely tempted to just activate the Infinitrix and go all Swampfire on that snobbish prince! Especially as he reread the letter that was sent to him earlier that day.

Dearest Auntie Celestia,

It has come to my attention that three of my finest guards have recently been assaulted by your "husband", Ben Tennyson. Therefore, I respectfully demand request that he be punished for his brutish actions. I will be awaiting your arrival in Canterlot later today to speak with you on this matter.

Your Nephew, Prince Blueblood.

Needless to say, Ben is upset. He defended Sunset and prevented her from being raped, and this guy has the nerve to say he assaulted the guards?! HOW STUCK UP AND ARROGANT CAN YOU BE?!

Luna and Celestia could easily sense the anger radiating from their shared husband, and they were seriously glad they left Eve in Twilight and Sunset's care until they got back. All of this anger would have scarred her for life.

"Ben, please try to calm down." Luna requested. "We understand that you're angry with Blueblood. We are too. But you have to keep that anger in check so that we can get him, or at least his guards, incarcerated for their inexcusable actions!"

"How do you expect me to stay calm when this guy is practically ordering you two around like he's a king or something?" Ben asked. "How is he even a member of the Royal Family in the first place?!"

"He's a very distant relative on my side of the family." Celestia replied, sounding tired and ashamed. "He was never meant to be a real prince, but his parents pushed for it due to having some of the highest social status in Canterlot."

Understanding what she meant and how she felt about the whole situation, Ben just put a comforting arm around her. He knew exactly what Celestia was trying to say. This was Blueblood trying to gain more power through the use of lies and deceit. Something that Ben would simply NOT tolerate!

It took about another fifteen minutes to arrive in Canterlot, but they made it there without incident. Once there, the Prince and Princesses were received by two of Ben's most trusted guards. One of them was a man who was about as tall as Applejack's brother, Big Macintosh. He had brown colored skin, spiky black hair and a shorter tail, and a pair of wings on his back to show that he was a pegasus. His mark was a spear overlapping a spartan shield, and he wore the trademark golden armor of the Canterlot Royal Guard.

The other was a woman, which was quite rare in the Royal Guard. Not because they thought women were weak, but because not a lot of women chose to become guards.

She was a mint green colored unicorn with white hair that went past her shoulders and a tail of the same color, golden yellow eyes, and her mark was a golden lyre. She was actually a good friend of Ben's back in Ponyville, and was selected specifically for this mission due to being good at keeping the peace.

"Spartan Spear, Lyra, good to see that you both could make it." Ben said.

"We wouldn't miss this for the world, Ben!" Lyra replied. "It's about time someone put that snob and those guards of his in their place!"

"Honestly, Lyra, I know that nobody really likes that Blueblood character, but what'd his guards ever do to you?" Spartan asked.

"One of his guards tried to grope me, and got my handprint on his face in return." she replied with a deadpan expression.

"Ah…" Spartan said in realization.

This just cemented Ben's overall opinion of Blueblood and his cronies. No one tries anything even remotely perverted to his friends and gets away with it! Not so long as HE'S breathing!

"Come on. The sooner we meet with Blueblood, the sooner I can give him a piece of my mind!" Ben said.

The others nodded in agreement, and the two guards escorted their rulers to the palace where Blueblood was awaiting them. It didn't take long to get there, and they ended up in a large meeting room with a round table in the middle of it. The room was once used to plan strategies for past wars, but after fifteen hundred years of peace had been converted into a room for diplomatic meetings.

That was when our hero got his first glimpse of this Blueblood guy. He looked to be about as old as he was, and he could actually see a slight resemblance between this guy and Celestia. He had the same alabaster white skin as her, but his hair and tail were a golden blonde color and were well kept. He was wearing a bright red petticoat, black pants, and white gloves. His build was a bit less masculine than Big Mac's, and his eyes were a sapphire blue color.

All in all, this guy looked like some sort of Prince Charming from a girl's fantasy. But for some reason, the dude's aura didn't radiate arrogance. Instead, he seemed relatively calm and peaceful despite what this meeting was about.

"Ah, auntie's Celestia and Luna. I apologize for calling you here on such short notice." Blueblood greeted. "And you must be this Ben Tennyson that my guards told me about. A pleasure to make your acquaintance."

Not trusting himself to not verbally assault the guy, Ben just nodded in greeting. The three sat down, Celestia and Luna being just a bit wary of their distant Nephew's new behavior. It freaked them out just a tad bit more than it should have, and they were normally very calm and collected.

"I have recently been informed by a few of my guards that mister Tennyson ruthlessly assaulted them when trying to apprehend a criminal. Care to explain?" Blueblood asked.

"Well, it appears as though your guards lied to you. For you see, the "criminal", as they put it, was actually an innocent girl that they were attempting to use for their own sick pleasures! Surely you remember your aunt Celestia's former student. Sunset Shimmer? I merely acted to prevent that her from experiencing a fate worse than death!" Ben explained.

Now they saw a serious reaction from this strange prince. His eyes widened in horror at the revelation of what his three, finest guards had attempted to do. And then those three tried to pin the blame on his uncle-in-law! His horror soon turned to anger as quick as Rainbow Dash can clear the sky.

"THOSE THREE FOOLISH- HAVE THEY NO SENSE OF DECENCY?!" Blueblood screamed in outrage.

This really threw the two sisters for a loop. As far as they knew, Blueblood NEVER lost his temper with anyone! Not even on his worst days. Seeing the surprised looks on his aunt's faces, Blueblood sighed and got himself under control.

"I apologize for my outburst. Rest assured, those guards will be dealt with accordingly and appropriately." Blueblood said. "I also would like to apologize for my overall attitude in regards to how I acted towards everyone. I was just so tired of all the girls treating me like some kind of fairytale prince and never getting to know me personally. So I used my previous actions as a means to keep them away from me."

Well that certainly explains a lot. But smiles soon found their way to our three royal's faces. It looks like Blueblood really was trying to change, and this was a big step in the right direction.

"Thank you, Blueblood. It's nice to know that not everyone in Canterlot is so stuck up and snooty!" Ben said jokingly.

"Ha ha, very funny." Blueblood replied sarcastically. Though he knew that Ben was joking.

Although, Celestia and Luna seemed to be a little bit pale, but not in a sick way. And for some reason, Ben felt like he was gonna feel great about the news.


Hope you guys enjoy this chapter, and find the plot twist to be interesting! Now, I've gotta get to work on some of my other stories, if'n ya don't mind.
