"Would you like to be my student?" I said as she dropped the cupcake at the surprise of the offer.

"What?" She asked as she picked up the cupcake she dropped.

"I want you to be my Personal Student" I said with a certainty.

"Why me?" She asked scratching my head "I'm not a pony" she said.

"Simple I've had earth ponies, unicorns and Pegasi under my belt this is a rare experience for the both of us" I said.

"Can I have some time to think" She asked.

"Sure take your time" I said as she walked out of the building.

"Twilight you may bring the ponies in now" I said as Twilight came out from her hiding spot.

"How did you know I was here" she asked as I took a sip of tea.

"I saw your hoof sticking out from behind the podium." I said as took another sip of tea.

"Are you sure you want to take an older umm... person as your student I mean I was 6 when I became your student and I think she's 11." Twilight said.

"Age is but a number there are things she has to learn if she's going to risk her life." I said standing up to let the guard know to let ponies in now.

"Iron Saber you may start letting ponies in now" I said.

"Hold up we still need to talk about this" Twilight said.

"We will but you did go through the trouble of getting this party ready for me." I said as ponies started to flood in.

The party lasted a few hours with ponies coming up to me to give thanks and one couple even asked if my sister and I would come to there wedding but as time went on I had to leave to return to my duties as Princess of Equestria. As I was preparing to leave Twilight came to me "We weren't done our talk" she said as I scooched over making room for her on the chariot.

"Then come along we'll finish it in Canterlot" I said as she looked at the chariot.

"I think I'll fly" She said before I signaled the guards to take off, The flight to Canterlot was peaceful even Twilight agreed but as we landed Twilight requested a place to talk alone.

We headed to the royal library where nopony was "Okay Twilight we are alone shall we resume our conversation?" I asked.

"Yes I was going to ask why do you want her as your student?" Twilight asked.

"Well you see her device gives her great potential, I want to mold that potential into something better just like I did with you" I said as twilight looked impressed but as we where about to discus it further Luna barged in with something to say.

"Sister we need to talk before you speak to the human" Luna said.

"I already spoken to Gwen." I said as Luna looked at me.

"Sister you don't know the pressure you've just pushed on her" Luna said.

"I just gave her the choice to be my student she Is free to say no" I said

"Yes but add tot he stress of her realizing she killed something" Luna said

"What did she kill?" Twilight asked.

"A monster within a changeling Hive" Luna said

"The changelings have monsters?" Twilight asked confused.

"Well we think its a monster it may have been something else but dreams don't lie" Luna said.

"What was her reaction to learning she did it?" I asked having a feeling.

"She looked devastated" Luna said.

"Just as I had thought" I said as they looked at me.

"What's just as you thought?" Twilight asked.

"Her guilt towards the action shows me that my intuition was right" I said they both looked at me "What?" I asked.

"Nothing we where just thinking about what you said." Twilight said.

"Sister what do you know of Dr. Animo?" Luna asked.

"Who?" I asked.

"He was goat who tried to experiment on Gwen and worked for the changelings" Luna said.

"That could be worse then it sounds I'll have some ponies looking into that." I said.

"In the mean time what should we do" Twilight asked.

"We wait to see what the results of our findings are then we decide what to do" I said as I took a sip of tea.

Meanwhile at the Minotaur isles Adamantium Hammer High King of the Forever Knights PoV

I took my seat as the head of the table where I oversaw the other lesser kings To my right was King Iron Fist, King Steel Hooves and King Titanium Forge. to my left was King Golden Visage King Ebony blade and King Ivory Bow.

"King Fist you and your faction will head to the griffin lands and find a way to have them join our cause while King Forge will scout out the Diamond dog burrows nearby see if we can't form a something out of it, King Bow will have scouts scouting the Changeling lands to see what kind of threat they are." I said as we heard A knocking on the door "Excuse me Gentlebulls" I said as I opened the door to see Steel Nerves standing there with a Maid behind him.

"Sorry for the intrusion your majesty but this maid wants to clean up your area and you said that nobull disturb you shall I send her away?" Steel Nerves asked.

"We where about to get some food anyway let her clean" I said as the bulls got up and walked to the dinning area.
