Pure Hope was a princess in Equestria, she was the daughter of princess Celestia. She had a white body, a rainbow mane, a purple horn, yellow wings, blue eyes, and a spray of freckles across her face. Her cutie mark is a pink heart with a green horn and orange wings. You may think that being a princess is easy with all the servants and stuff, but it's not. She had to do so many boring things, like learn about the history of Equestria, and make sure she has the most refined manners, and listen to other ponies problems as a test to see how well she'd do as a princess from her mother. but she couldn't do the one thing she wanted to do. She wanted to go out in the world and be normal, and maybe find somepony who loves her for her; her true love.

Duper Ink was a common unicorn who wrote novels. He had a green coat with a spiked gray mane and dark brown eyes. His cutie mark was a golden pen to show how much he loved to write. He used to live in PonyVille till twilight moved there and the whole town became a signal for every enemy out there. So he decided to move to Canterlot where he can try to work on his novels in peace. This is the story of how these two ponies meet. One day, Duper Ink hit a writers block in his latest novel. So he went for a walk through Canterlot looking for inspiration.

Meanwhile, Pure Hope had just gotten back to her room after a lesson from her mother in magic. Though she wouldn't let her try anything so it turned to be more of a boring lecture and demonstration than an actual lesson. Mommy supposedly wouldn't let her get hurt.

Pure Hope flung herself onto her bed and groaned. She was always protected from the tiniest things, yet was always expected to be on her best behavior. She was sick of it! She wanted to be a normal everyday pony and not royalty, she wanted to go out without any security, she wanted to go to regular school, she wanted to take risks. Why couldn't she take one now?

This idea intrigued the princess. Maybe, just maybe She could sneak out in a disguise and go unnoticed into the city of Canterlot. But how? How could she sneak out with someone checking on her every five minutes? Wait, what was that spell her mother just taught her? A duplication spell, that's right! And she can do it too, even though her mother doesn't let her practice when giving her the lesson, that doesn't mean she doesn't practice without her knowledge.

Pure Hope concentrated and slowly her purple horn lit with a neon green aura. She continued to concentrate on the spell until it was complete. "Perfect!" She looked at her double with glee then went to her closet to get a dress to hide her wings so others would see her as a unicorn instead of an alicorn. She put the dress on and smiled, then she teleported to an alley in Canterlot. Pure Hope looked around at her surroundings and quickly caught sight of a flash of a green leg and a gray spiky tail and ran to catch up with the owner.

Some ideas shared by IHeartDiscord

While also fitting in my true reaction to seeing Kathryn for the first time on Skype.

When she turned the corner no pony was in sight.

She then took notice of her purple horn. "You know, I never understood why I am multicolored," she said.

The princess quickly brushed her mane to cover the horn. That way, she looked like a normal earth pony. Her stomach then grumbled of hunger. Thankfully, she noticed that she was at restaurant row. Remembering how her friend, Pinkie Pie, suggested The Tasty Treat, she went into that small diner. Once she went in, she noticed that hardly anypony was there.

Duper Ink was already sitting down. Saffron was then taking his order. Duper Ink was a bigger sin of gluttony than Son Goku. The dark green unicorn rubbed his stomach in hunger.

"I'll take one of everything and a large drink of Cola," Duper stated. Saffron sweated as she went to the back with his order.

Duper then caught a glimpse of the princess and lost his appetite. He got up and shyly walked over to her. Pure Hope noticed that this was the same pony that she saw earlier.

"Um, hi. I'm Duper Ink," the colt said.

Pure Hope got extremely nervous. She never actually talked to another male pony, besides the crystal guards. She took a deep breath and said, "Hi." She refused to give out her name. She couldn't let him link it back to being Celestia's daughter.

"You have such a soft voice," Duper stated.

"Thanks," the hidden princess said. She shyly turned her head the other way.

"It matches your gorgeous face," Duper said with no hesitation.

Duper Ink in reality sucked at flirting, but he was to caught in a love trance, the words just kept flowing out of his mouth.

Pure Hope couldn't help but blush at his words. She was still too shy to look at him. Her rainbow mane began to frizz a little. It revealed the purple horn to the colt. The unicorn was too busy staring at her face, he didn't notice.

Thankfully, the only other pony in the diner was too busy eating, she didn't notice. This pony was an orange pegasus. Her mane was wavy and was the colors yellow, red, orange and brown. Her cutie mark was 3 leaves, one yellow, one red, and one brown. circling in the wind. The wind was marked by white. She was eating a velvet cheese cake.

Duper Ink took a step forward and accidently bumped into a table. A plate, that had crumbs on it, got knocked off. The crumbs feel onto Pure Hope's dress. Duper Ink quickly flashed back into reality.

"Here, let me," Duper said.

"No, don't," Pure Hope said, trying to stop him. She finally turned her head towards him.

But it was too late. Duper Ink lit a yellow aura around his horn. He used his magic to take off the princess's dress. He whipped off the crumbs, before turning his attention back to Pure Hope. That's when the green unicorn finally noticed the alicorn's purple horn and yellow wings!

"You're a princess," Duper Ink questioned.

Pure Hope squealed in panic. Duper Ink slowly fainted from being overwhelmed with cuteness. Pure Hope quickly caught him in her hooves out of concern. She quickly teleported herself and the unicorn back into her room.

"Your food's ready," Saffron said. Saffron was using her magic to levitate Duper Ink's huge order. She was shocked to see the green unicorn gone from the restaurant.

"Oh, he just left with the princess of hope," Autumn Breeze said as she finished her food.

Final Half wrote by Duperghoul and all my idea

Pure Hope was back in her room with the unicorn. Duper Ink slowly woke up as Pure Hope made her clone fade away. Duper Ink shyly backed away.

"It's OK," Pure Hope stated.

"Celestia's gonna banish me to the moon for eyeing her daughter," Duper said.

"No she won't," Pure Hope quickly replied.

On cue, Celestia walked into the room. The princess of the sun's eyes grew as she noticed the colt in her daughter's bedroom. "A boy dares to break into Pure Hope's room To the moon," she said laughing.

"No, you can't! I love him," Pure Hope defended. She hoped by saying Duper Ink was her coltfriend, her mother would leave her alone. And deep down, she actually did grow feelings for the unicorn within their first 3 minutes of contact.

"Prove it," Celestia sang in a playful voice.

Pure Hope quickly locked lips with the unicorn. Duper Ink left his eyes open in shock for a few seconds. Both of the ponies' horns sparked off a green and yellow aura for a split second to symbolize the spark. Duper slowly began to kiss the princess back.


Autumn originally had this idea. She was making this for Kathryn's sixteenth birthday last December!

Since she's a baker, not a writer, I decided to take the story from her and finally finish it. Cover image by me.
