CHAPTER 9

"WELL DONE DIAMOND TIRA AND SILVER SPOON" said the alicorn in the crystal canterlot voice. It was Princess Cadance of the crystal empire!

"Princess cadance!" said silver spoon in an unbelieving voice. "You are the leader of the diamond cable?"

"of couse" said Princess Cadance warmly. "Why do you think it is called the DIAMOND cable? It is because I like crystals"

I bowed in front of Princess Cadance but she made me stop. "Diamond Tiara you have saved me and Equestria as well."

"It was silver spoon as well" I said not wanting to take all the credit.

"You have both done good today" said Cadance. "you can have anything you want for your reward."

silvers eyes lit up brightly. "ANYTHING?"

Cadance said "yes anything".

silver stood there for a long time thinking. "I wish you could stop the bullies from picking on me at school" she said sadly.

"oh silver spoon. you don't need me for that. you can ask diamond, she will protect you" said Cadance.

silver spoon blushed. "then can I have Star Swirl The Bearded's Guide To Metallurgy" she said. "I have always wanted to read it"

I roled my eyes. Of course silver spoon wants a book!

"IT IS DONE" said Cadance officially. "And what about you Diamon Tiara what do you want"

"I am just glad the world is safe" I said. "OH! I must give you this!" I held up the Laringia stone.

"I am impressed that you were able to get the stone" said Cadance impressively. "not many fillies can!"

I blushed. "I tried my best"

"You are a wonderful spy diamond tiara. I will send a letter to your father Filthy Tiara telling him how lucky he is to have you"

"Thank you Princess" I said bowing.

"Now I must go. Farewell" said Cadance flying into the air again with the laringia stone.

Silver looked shocked. "I can't believe we met PRINCESS CADANCE!" she said.

I looked at her with my eyes wet with tears.

"Diamond! you are crying! what is wrong!" she asked.

"silver... I am so sorry" I said. "I cannot let you remember this. its too dangerous. you know all about our cable now and ponies might kill you."

"but but but!" said silver. "no diamond I wont tell anyone I promise!"

"that doesnt matter. they might read your mind. I must erase your memory" I said.

"no diamond please!" said silver begging.

"I am so sorry" I said grabbing her head. I squeezed it in the special way I know that loses memories. "I love you silver" Tears rollocked down my face as I took away her memories of everything she had done today.

When I let her go she looked dizzy and confused. "diamond?" she said. "how did I get here? are we in manhattan?"

"It is a long story silver spoon" I said. "You fell and bumped your head and lost your memories" I lied.

"oh no how awful!" said silver spoon. "thank goodness you are here!"

I turned away because I was crying with tears of guiltness. "I'd never leave you."
