(Next Morning)

Derpy Hooves woke up with a spliting headache as she growned into the soft couch. She looked up and saw a alarm clock that read 6:24am making her groan even more. As he sat up she heard the sound of hooves on wood as well as panting and grunts following the impacts.

She got up and noticed that whoevers house this was it was beautiful. With the polished hardwood floors and large hallways as well as the beautiful staircase that led upstairs.

She shook her head as she followed the sound and walked out back to come out on a porch making her gasp. It was gorgious the early morning sun rising over the tree line across the lake, the birds chirping in the trees making the scene peaceful.

CRACK!

Well almost.

She shook her head as she continued to follow the sound heading towards a clearing behind the hows. She stopped as she saw a pegasus filly and a large stallion across from each other both with serious looks on their faces.

"You ready baby girl? Master Iron Claw wants me to test you before you go to the finals in Cloudsdale in a few days." He said she smiled.

"Im ready daddy dont hold back." She said as the two ran at each other.Derpy watched as the two traded blow for blow the little filly holding her own against the larger stallion as he didnt use his magic at all as the filly easily flipped over the stallion before she ran at his exposed rear before doing a corkscrew under him and came out smiling holding a red marker in her mouth.

"I win!" She said as he sighed.

"That you did baby girl." He said as he sat on his butt and saw the many red marks all across his stomach, chest and legs.

"That was a really good move sweet heart did you think of that or was it Iron Claw?" He asked as he wiped the sweat off him and threw the filly a towel.

"Nope it was all me, but Master Iron Claw told me if I see a chance to take it so I did." She said as she panted and came up to the stallion.

"So whats next daddy?" She asked as the stallion smiled.

"Well lets see who our guest is shall we." He said as Derpy felt a pull on herself before feeling dizzy. He looked up to see the large stallion and the little filly both smiling at her.

"You know you could have told us you were up ma'am." He said as she smiled up at him.

"Sorry it was really cool watching you two. Um who are you guys Ive never seen you in Ponyville." She said

"We just moved here yesterday ma'am. My name is Dark Star and this is my daughter Star Dancer." He said as the mare smiled.

"My names Derpy Hooves! Im the mail mare here in Ponyville. Um by the way how come I woke up on your couch?" She asked as he smiled.

"Well Derpy last night it seems you flew right into our oak wood door and was knocked out. You had a really nasty bump on your head but it looks like the swelling went down a lot." Dark Star said as he moved her mane out of the way as he took a look at the bump.

"It looks like it shouldnt be a problem anymore." He as he gently poked the bump as the mare hissed a little.

"The pain should go away in no time just make sure you put some ice on it tonight ok." He said as she smiled at him.

"Thanks Dark Star it was nice meeting you two. And good luck in the finals for whatever your going in." She said as she took flight towards town.

"Thanks ma'am have a good day." Star dancer said as she looked at her father.

"So whats next?"

"Well you want to try to go against the Fine Blade?" He asked with a smirk as she shook her head.

"No way! But why dont we practise the Stone Hoof for a while before I go to school." She said as he nodded and smirked.

"Ok baby girl you ready?" He asked as they got ready to lunge at each other. Just as the were fixing to lunge they saw a dragon land in the field making them smile.

"Boss? Sunshine? You guys home?" The large dragon said as he tapped the door to the house.

"Careful Shadow Heart! I dont want to replace a door already!" Shadow Heart looked down and smiled as he saw his two favorite ponies as the little filly ran up to him.

"Uncle Shadow Heart!" She yelled as he placed his claw on the ground as the filly jumped in it bringing her up to his face as she nuzzled his nose.

"Hey Sunshine you miss me?" He asked as smiled and nodded her head.

"Well yeah I miss all you guys when you leave! So what did you bring me?" She said as she gave the dragon the doe eyes.

"Oh just a little somthing from the dragon lands. I know that you like martial arts and I looked for something that you would like. I even found one for your dad." He said as she sqealed with joy as she latched onto his nose.

"THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" She said as he smiled.

"No problem sunshine. Just dont it without your dad around ok? This style is mostly for air to air combat. So have another pegasus with you or your dad ok?" He said as he handed her two large books, one that said Burning Fist and the other Fire Wing. She held the two books close and smiled as Shadow Heart grinned as he layed down on the lawn.

"So sunshine how was your first day of school? Make any new friends?" He asked as he set the filly on the ground.

"Yes! I have four new friends! One is a dragon to." She said as the large dragon raised a eyebrow?

"Oh?"

"Yep his name is Spike my aunt hatched him when she was just a filly. He's really nice and he's gonna be coming over later today to go swimming with us." She said as she beamed at the giant dragon making chuckle.

"Hm maybe I should pay this little dragon a visit and let him know what Ill do to him if he makes you cry." He said as he puffed fire out of his nose as the filly sighed.

"No Uncle Shadow. Spikes my friend I dont want you to scare him away. He was really nervous when I told him about all the stallions that worked for daddy." She said as the dargon smiled.

"Well he should be if he knows whats best for him. Id hate to see what your dad would do to him if someone hurt you." He said as he looked at the stallion who was busy reading the Burning Fist.

"Yeah that wouldnt be good. Daddy could really hurt them if they did." She said as she looked at her watch and gasped.

"Oh crap Im gonna be late! Bye Uncle Shadow! Bye Daddy!" She said as she ran for the house to get a quick bath and then her stuff for school.

"She's growing to fast Dark." Shadow said as the stallion sighed and looked at his long time friend.

"I know if I could I would keep her at this age." He said as he turned to the great dragon.

"So what do you have for me?" He said getting serious.

"Well pretty much all is quiet. Their is some movement in the changeling area but other than that nothing. Also we have some newbies that Ill be putting through the ringer soon." He said as Dark nodded.

"Have fun with the FNG's as for the changelings their most likely still regrouping from their defeat at Canterlot. Keep an eye on them though, any news on the Crystal Empire?"

"Not really the stallions stationed there are getting bored. Princess Cadence is slow to raise troops for the empire." He said as Dark growled a little.

"Ok well take some of the men and send them to East Germaneigh. I heard that things are getting bad over there. I want some of our men over there before it gets out of hand. Peace keeping only." He said as the dragon nodded.

"Ok that just about covers it then besides that a few of our guys where hurt in a riot in Trottingham some protesters getting out of hand nothing serious." He said as Dark nodded.

"Ok then are you gonna be staying for a while I know that Star Dancer would love for you to show her a little bit on that new style?" He said as Shadow smiled.

"Sure why not I dont have to be home for a few hours and the wife is away for a few days at her parents house with the kids so I can hang around for a bit." He said as the stallion smiled.

"Tea then?"

"Please."

(With Star Dancer)

Star Dancer ran down the road towards the school house panting as she sprinted as fast as she could. As she turned the corner she saw out the corner of her eye a Speeding scooter pulling a wagon with two fillies in it. Star Dancer jumped and twisted through the air over the fillies before righting herself in the air before shooting off towards school. She never saw the shocked looks of her friends or the impressed face of Rainbow Dash.Star Dancer landed and the ground and sprinted again towards the school as she saw the wagon pull up beside her.

"Need a lift?" Sweetie Belle asked as she grabbed the filly and put a helmet on her head.

"Go Scoots we're almost late!" She yelled as Scootaloo took off down the road.

Rainbow Dash smiled at the fillies as she eyed Star Dancer before she headed off to finish her early morning weather jobs.

(With Twilight)

"Oh I hope he's not mad at me for not coming over last night." Twilight said to herself as she walked down the road that morning headed to her brothers house. She had gotten so focused in her studies that she forgot to meet up with her brother last night.

As she walked towards her brothers house she saw much to her shock a great dragon and then started to panic as he let loose as stream of fire. She shot off down the road towards her brothers house charging a powerful spell ready to fire at the dragon.

As she reached the house she saw the great dragon chuckle at something before laying down. When she turned the corner of the house she stopped dead in her tracks at what she was looking.

There sitting on a lawn chair with a small table sipping on a drink smiling up at the dragon who was busy with a large drink himself. She saw the two look at her as her brother smiled at her.

"Hey LT! What are you doing up so early?" He asked as she stared at the giant dragon on her brothers lawn.

"LT?"

"I think I broke her Dark."

"I think you did to Shadow."

Twilight shook her head as she looked at her brother who was smiling at her.

"Ah ok she's alive! Twilight Id like you to meet a close friend of mine. Prince Shadow heart of the Shadow Dragon clan. Shadow this is my big sisters Twilight Sparkle." He said as the dragon leaned his head down closer to her and stuck out a claw.

"A pleasure to meet you Twilight Sparkle." He said as the mare shook her head and smiled nervously.

"The pleasure is all mine Prince Shadow Heart." She said as the dragon laughted.

"At least she knows respect unlike a certain stallion." He said as he gave a smirk to his friend.

"Oh shut up you walking boot." He said as his sister looked at him in shock.

"Dark Star this is a royal dragon your talking to!" She said harshly at her brother as he waved her off.

"Please Ive known this smoke stack for years." He said as the dragon smiled.

"Indeed Ive known this idiot for quite some time now. That walking worthless sack meat has been my friend since he stumbled into my cave when he was a young stallion." He said as Twilight looked back and forth between the two as the laughted.

As Shadow Heart took a sip of his hot tea he message popped open in front of him making him sigh.

"Well my friend it looks like the wife is calling so I better get a move on. Tell sunshine Im sorry I couldnt stay. And it was a pleasure meeting you Twilight Sparkle." He said as he finished his tea and set the giant cup in its holder near the forrest and took flight.

Dark Star tuned to his sister as she sat down beside him as he floated a cup of tea over to her.

"So what can I do for you this morning LT?" He said taking a sip of his tea and looked over at her as she took a drink.

"Oh um well I just wanted to come by and apologize for not coming by last night and see what you were going to do today." She said taking another sip of the tea letting out a sigh.

"Well I was going to go into town and see if I could find me a job. Even though I love my company and I could happily retire right now and live the rest of my days here but I dont like to just sit around. So know anyone that could use some help from somepony like me?" He asked as she thought about it.

"Hm well I know that Applejack is always looking for somepony to help her on the farm if your looking for hard work. Um I think that Rarity could use some help with modeling the latest stallion fastion and Fluttershy could use some help with the animals.

"Oh yeah I remember Fluttershy I helped her with her animals yesterday before Star Dancer found me." He said as he thought of the timid pegasus.

"Oh well besides them their is some construstion going on down town that use somepony like you. Um lets see ummmm thats all I can think of but ask around today if you want me to." She said as he nodded.

"Thanks Twilight that would give me something to do while Star Dancers at School." He said as Twilight nodded and finished her tea.

"Well Im going to go straighten up the library before- where did you get that book?" She said as he looked at the book and grabbed it with his magic away from Twilight.

"Its something that Shadow Heart let me have. Its about dragon martial arts and the history of it." He said as her eyes took on a predator like look as she stared at the book.

"You know your my favorite brother right? You wouldnt mind if I borrowed it would you?" She said as she started to advance on Dark Star.

"NO ITS MY BOOK! I JUST GOT IT TODAY YOU CAN READ IT WHEN IM DONE WITH IT!" He said as she lunged at him.

"Oh come on Dark you havent even started it yet and beside you wont be reading it while your looking for a job!" She yelled making a grab for the book but was stopped as he used his magic to hold her in mid air as she stuggled.

"Hey no fair! Just let me borrow it while your looking for a job!" She said as he shook his head and smiled.

"Sorry LT but this is my book and Im gonna read it first. If I let you borrow it I wont get it back." He said as he set her on the ground and teleported away as she growled.

"Oh it is so on little bro, that book is as good as mine." She said to herself as she saw the large stallion running up the road.

(Ponyville)

Dark Star sighed as he walked down the road towards the main part of town. He didnt know where Rarity lived so he headed to sugarcube corner to find out.

As he entered the sweet shop he looked around for his older sister to make sure that she wouldnt surprise him. As he turned again he felt a weight on his back, his breath caught in his throat as he turned back and sighed as he saw Pinkie Pie on his back smiling at him.

"Hey Dark Star whatcha doin?" She asked as he smiled at the mare.

"Making sure my sister doesnt get my new book. By the way thanks for getting everything into my house yesterday Pinkie, you know you didnt have to do it all yourself." He said as the mare smiled from her positon on his back.

"I know I didnt but I wanted to help out a new friend and get you settled in. Oh and thanks for carrying me home yesterday to Dark." She said with a big smile getting a grin out of him.

"No trouble at all Pinkie if you ever need anything just let me know and Ill do the best I can to help." He said as the mare giggled.

"Ok! So what did you need today Dark?" She asked as he looked around again.

"Well Im looking for a job and Twilight named a few places that might need some help and she said that Rarity might need some help with her stallion line."

"Oh well Rarity isnt home right now but her place is actually right down the street its the big one with all the little flags." She said as he nodded.

"Well alright then Ill go see if Ms Applejack could use some help then." He said as the mare shook her head.

"Nope growing season isnt until next season and they just got finished with this seasons harvest yesterday, thats why all of us were there helping her." She said as the stallion sighed.

"Well what about Fluttershy?"

"Oh well she had to go and do something with her bear friends today so she wont be home until this afternoon."

"I dont suppose you could give me something to do?"

"Sorry our busy part of the day is over till this afternoon." She said as his head slumped.

"Do you know anypony that could use some help at all today?" He asked as Pinkie smiled.

" Yeah I heard that Carrot Top could use some help havesting, Octavia could use some help with some of her conserts, and I heard that Princess Luna's coming to town soon so you could help Shining Armor with the Escort?" She said as she bounced around the dinner never seeing the rage building as Dark Star thought of his older brother.

(Flashback)

"Whats the matter usless cant get your magic to work? Mom and Dad were right you just never going to go anywhere with your life Dip Star. Maybe you should go ahead and just leave now blank flank." A young Shining Armor said as the little colt Dark Star growled at him.

"Shut up Shining! Im learning just like Twilight! All you can do is shields and thats it. Theres nothing special about you. Your just a dumb-WHAM!

"Shut up you stupid little punk! Your never going to amount to anything but a waste of space and time! BAM! Your just a mistake that mom and dad didnt want!" Shining yelled as he continued to stomp on Dark Star kicking and thowing him into walls.

"Hmph your nothing but a failure Dark Star and thats all you will ever be!" He said as he stomped down on the little colts mid-section for good measure as he walked out the room leaving Dark Star in a small pool of blood as he started to fall unconsious. The last thing he saw was Twilight running to him.

(End Fashback)
Dark Star shook his head as Pinkie looked at him with worry. He when he looked up at her there was nother but pure hate and rage in his eyes. She stepped back as he gritted his teeth.

"When does the princess get here?" He said as she whimpered a little bit.

"Um some time around when school lets out. All I know is that she's coming to see Twilight." She said as he nodded.

"Thank you Pinkie." He said as he turned and started to walked away.

"What are you going to do?"

"Nothing I just want to know when theyll be here so I dont do anything rash. Im going to go and do some training have a good day Pinkie." He said as he walked out the door leaving the shivering mare behind him.

(outside)

Dark Star headed for his home when he saw his sister jump at him. Acting quickly he trapped her in his magic.

"Aww come on Dark just let me- whats wrong Dark?" She said as he let her down as she got closer to him.

"He's coming Twilight. That stupid fuck is coming." He said as she saw him shaking and could hear the rage in his voice.

"Who is coming?"

"Our brother." He said as she narrowed her eyes.

"What is he coming here for?"

"He is the escort for Princess Luna. Dont let them know that Im here Twi please. Ill kill Shining Armor Twilight, you know that. So Im gonna go home and blow off some steam, if you hear explosions just tell them that it some constuction going on." He said as he pleaded with his sister

"Ok Dark Star Ill cover for you just be careful ok." She said as he nodded and put his hoof to his ear.

[HEY BABY GIRL YOU HEAR ME?]

[HEY DADDY! IM AT RECESS RIGHT NOW]

[THATS GOOD LISTEN IF YOU WANT YOU CAN BRING YOUR FRIENDS TO SWIM IF YOU WANT BUT YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT ONE OF THEM ARE ON THE WAY HERE. JUST LOOK FOR PRINCESS LUNA IF YOU SEE A WHITE STALLION WITH HER THEN THATS HIM. SO IF YOU GO GET SPIKE JUST MAKE SOMETHING UP OK, LOVE YOU.]

[OK DADDY I LOVE YOU TO, ARE YOU GOING TO BE OK?]

[ILL BE FINE BABY YOU GO HAVE FUN WITH YOUR FRIENDS OK]

[OK DADDY]

He let go of his ear and continued to his home intent on practising some of his more dangerous and destrutive spell and maybe leveling some of the forrest that was on his property.

(With Star Dancer)

She got off the head set and sighed as she sat down as anger started to set in. Why are they here after only a day something is already upseting her father. She punched the ground hard as she felt her hoof sink into the hard ground a good inch making her smile.As she sighed she got up to see Ms. Cheerilee standing behind her with a raised eyebrow.

"Are you ok Star Dancer?"

"No Im not. We just get here and already something is upsetting daddy. I just hope that HE doesnt go and be stupid enough to go up against daddy. I hope Aunt Twilight can keep that dummy from finding daddy or Princess Luna from getting curious." She said making the teacher look at the little filly in shock.

"Why do you hope that sweetie?" She asked as the filly looked dead in her eyes.

"Because my daddy and Shining Armor have bad blood and if Shining Armor steps one hoof on our property daddy might hurt him really bad." She said as she walked away.

Cheerilee watched as the little filly walked over to the crusaders and saw her mood change as she smiled at her friends and started talking to them.

Cheerilee didnt know what was going on but she had a feeling that if those two stallions met one might not come out alive.
As she started to gather the children she felt the ground rumble before a large explosion went off making her whip her head in the direction of the sound.

"Dont worry about it Ms. Cheerilee thats just daddy trying to calm down." Star Dancer said as she pasted her teacher as another explosion went off. She was getting worried as she saw a few ponies heading in that direction.

(Dark Star)

Dark Star lashed out with pure hate and rage as he used the Fine Blade cleanly slicing through 10-12 trees before bucking them down and firing a powerful beam the pile turning them to ash in the resulting explosion. When he got tired of using magic he switch to the improved version of the Stone Hoof letting off bursts of magic at the point of impact blowing holes in the large oak trees.

When he got tired of that went back to putting dents in the trees imagining that is was his so called families faces. As he continued to let the rage comsume him he never noticed the small crowd that had gathered watching him. He panted as sweat rolled off his body. He felt little better as he gulped in large amounts of air. He turned to go into his home to see a large crowd gather staring at him in awe.

He looked back at the landscape to see it utterly destroyed with craters dotting the land making him sigh. He would have to fill those up soon.

"Sorry for the noise everypony." He said as a stallion came up to him with a yellow safety hat on.

" Hey buddy are you looking for a job?" He asked as another stallion came up.

" I was here first mac! Look man I saw those moves you were using and I got to say it is amazing. Would like to be a teacher at our local Dojo?"

"Sorry fellers but I could really use some help on the farm." A large red stallion said as he moved past the other stallion.

"Mah names Big Macintosh most folks round here just call me Big Mac. I want to know if yall would like a job durin harvestin and plantin season coming up?" Big Mac said as the other two stepped forward.

"Im Steele Hooves of Steele Hooves demolitions and buddy the way you just cleared this small forrest we could sure use you coming soon for the next big project here in Ponyville." The large tan unicorn stallion said as the last one grinned.

"Im Quick Shoes of the Silver Wing Dojo down town. Its amazing to see a skilled user of the Fine Blade and Stone Hoof up close Im wondering if you would like to be a teacher at the dojo?" The black pegasus said as Dark Star smiled.

"Your all are in luck I was just in town looking for a job today. Big Mac are you related to Applejack?" He asked as the fellow large stallion nodded.

"How do yall know mah sister?" He asked

"I met her and the other elements yesterday when I surprised my sister Twilight Sparkle." He said as Mac eyes widened.

"Ah didnt know she had another brother. You the oldest?"

"Nope youngest." He siad as Mac looked surprised.

"Now I would be happy to help you with planting season and harvesting. When is the next harvest?" He asked as Big Mac sighed.

"It aint till another few more months." He said as Dark Star smiled.

"Great that works well with me I just need something to keep me in shape since my own business is having a lull right now so business is slow and I need something to do while my daughters at school. So when its time to work Big Mac just find me Im your stallion." He said as he looked at Steele Hooves as Big Mac smiled.

"Now when is this project sir." He asked as the stallion smiled.

"Its in a few weeks time we're going to be taking down the old town hall and building a new one." He said as Dark Star nodded.

"Ok how long do you think the construction will take?" He asked
"Shouldnt be more than a month or two just in time to help the Apples with the havest season." He said as Dark Star nodded.

"Ok whenever your ready just come and get me." He said as Steele Hooves looked at the last stallion.

"And you wanted me teach what exactly?" Dark Star asked as the stallion smiled.

"While a some of my students are pegasus and thus easy for me to them pegasus martial arts but with the earth and unicorn colts and fillies I can only teach the ground version of the Lightning Strike. Ive been asking for a earth or unicorn teacher for months now but I just dont have the funds to hire one from Canterlot." He said as Dark Star nodded.

"When do I start?" He asked as the teacher looked up surprised and smiled.

"Tomorrow morning 7 am sharp." He said as Dark Star nodded.

"Ill tell you this I know a good many styles and am a master in two and they are the most dangerous. You know of the Fine Blade and Stone Hoof right so you should know that I cant teach it to the little ones. Ill see where they are physicaly and magically when I start to teach them. If you would like to learn something new to teach your students I have many styles in my home." He said as the pegasus smiled.

"Thank you sir." He said as Dark Star smiled.

"Its no problem man Im helping my little girl with the Quick Claw." He said as the teachers eyes bugged out.

"Thats the begining steps to the Griffon Sudden Death style." He said as Dark smiled.

"Yep she's being trained by master Iron Claw." He said a the stallion went slack jawed.

"Thats amazing! How old is your little girl?" He asked

"Shes 7 bout to turn 8 aroud winter." He said as the stallion just shook his head.

"Now if you will excuse me I have a class to teach and a mess to clean up as well as a new style to learn." He said as they smiled and left with the rest of the crowd as he headed to the over to start cleaning up his mess.

(Star Dancer)
As the bell rang for the end of the school day Star Dancer took off with the cutie mare cursaders headed for the wagon and scooter.

"Come on I want to see what your dad did Star Dancer!"

"He probably leveled some of the forrest that was on our property." She said as the crusaders looked back at her.

"What? What!? Im serious Ive only seen daddy this mad one other time and thats when someone talked back about momma." She said as the fillies shivered.

"Wow that must have been really scary." Sweetie Belle said as Star Dancer shrugged.

"Yeah it was but I knew that daddy wasnt going to hurt me so I wasnt that scared." She said though in truth she was terrified of her father that day.

"Well come on yall lets go pick up Spike so we can go swiming at Stars house!" Applebloom said as they put their helmets on and took off to Twilights house. As the four came to the door of Twilights house the crusaders ran inside as Star Dancer trotted in heaving a big sigh as she pushed the door open.

"HI SHINING! HI PRINCESS LUNA!" They yelled as the two adults winced and smiled.

"Hey girls how was school?"

"GOOD!"

"Good day to you girls. " The princess said as she saw another filly come in and went straight to Spike

"Come on Spike you want to go swiming today right?" She asked as he jumped up.

"Oh yeah I almost forgot. Twilight Im going over to Star Dancers place to swim Ill see you later ok?" He said as Twilight nodded as she sipped some tea feeling another rumble from a explosion.

"Man I wonder what their building over by that lake." Shining said as Twilight shrugged.

"Dont know something about making the lake larger for the next time Clouds Dale needs a water supply for Equestria." She said with a straight face.

"Hmm Twilight can I see you a moment in the kitchen." She said as she saw the purple filly glare at Shining Armor before she followed her friends outside.

"Sure Princess." She said as Twilight sighed and joined the night princess. As they entered the kitchen Luna rounded on Twilight.

"Twilight why are you sitting there lying to me and your brother?" She asked as Twilight smiled.

"Quick as ever eh Luna? Well thats because my brothers are here and if Shining knew that my little brother was here and went to see him, I dont think he would leave Ponyville unless in a body bag." She said coldly as she looked at the thing that she wished she wasnt related to. She looked back to Luna's shocked face.

She hated Shining Armor with a firery passion after all that he had done to her baby brother. She pretended to get along with him to keep the peace. He was only ever nice when Cadence was there and once she left it started all over again.

"Twilight? Why would you say that about your brother? And what do you mean brothers? You have more than one?" She asked as she saw Twilight look at her sibling with pure hate in her eyes before she looked back at the princess.
"You know it was his dream to be Captain of the Guard? Shining took everything from my little brother his hopes, his dreams." She chuckled darkley as she looked at the ring on his horn.

"He even took his first crush. Luna what you dont know about the Sparkle family is that it has a very dark past when it comes to my little brother. But its not my place to tell his story, if you want to know you can ask him yourself but dont bring it up in front of Shining Armor or Cadence for that matter. Tell your sister that as well I dont want that idiot to come down here if he learns about Dark Star and my little brother goes to jail for killing the captain of the guard." She said as she watched Shining wave at her and smile as she forced a smile in her face and waved back.

"Of course my friend I will keep this to myself. I wont breath a word of it to Shining or Cadence." Luna said as Twilight sighed.

"Thank you princess this means alot to me. Now I want to go swim with my brother and little neice today. You and Princess Celestia should join us sometime when you dont have the dead weight around. I think you would like my brother, you already saw his daughter, the purple filly pegasus that came and got Spike." She said giggling as Luna laughted with her.

"Where is the fillies mother Twilight? You never did mention her." Luna said as Twilight looked down and sighed.

"She died giving birth to Star Dancer." Twilight said as Luna nodded.

"Ah most unfortunate. Very well Twilight I may take you up on that offer someday. I do wish to meet your younger brother one day. Tia was telling me about it earlier actually." She said as the memory came to her whlie she stood up and headed for the main room.

"Come Captain we must be off. It was good seeing you again my friend and I may take you up that offer some day." She said as she went through the front door.

"Later Twiliy." Shining said as Twilight gave a weak grin and waved.

"Bye Shining." She said as he followed Luna out the door as they disappeared in a flash. Twilight sighed as she left her house as well. As she turned around she saw Pinkie Pie grinning at her.

"AHHH! Pinkie dont do that how many times have I said that?" She said as the Pink mare took a thinking pose.

"Umm are you talking about today or since you got to Ponyville?" She said as Twilight sighed.

"Never mind! What do you need Pinkie?" She said as the mare started to bounce in place.

"Well I was wondering if you could stall your brother long enough so I can make him a surpires Welcome to Ponyville Party!" She said exicedly still bouncing.

"Sure Pinkie after this whole Shining Armor thing Im sure he could use some good times." She said as she headed towards her brothers house.

"GOOD! I ALREADY ASKED EVERYPONY ELSE IF THEY COULD MEET UP AT HIS HOUSE!" She said as she zoomed ahead of her.

"Oh Dear."
