Why Me?

Took some time out to actually think of my plot and a lot of inspiration came to me, I took down my last story for some improvement but I think I'm going to focusing on this story abit more. I do hope to keep this story going as long as it's liked by those, which read it. Thank you!

Honorable Duty

"Oh my... She still hasn't returned, I wonder how the guards are doing with their searches. I just hope shes safe.. Ever since she was saved from Nightmare Moon she hasn't been herself. Guard captain, please come here."

"Aye ma'am, Silver Shield reporting in ma'am. How may I assist you Princess?"

Silver shield is a gray colored colt with a silver mane. Being a citizen of Canterlot was different for him than it was for others. Instead of going to classy parties and banquets, he fought alongside the royal guard with defending the city from imposing dragons and other creatures that threatened Equestria. His mark is a shining shield and a symbol no pony has been able to recognize. He received his mark after he jumped infront of a fireball aimed at a foal by a fleeing dragon. Princess Celestia rewarded his bravery by employing him in the royal guard and over time, became guard captain.

"Report on your guard's search attempts please"

"Ma'am, no contact with Princess Luna has been made yet, we shall expand our searching area, but we must not leave the city unprotected, we do have limits your highness. I apologize"

"Hmm, thank you Silver, resume your duty please"

"Aye ma'am"

Silver shield lowers his head in respect and leaves the royal alicorn to her thoughts, Celestia levitates a quill and scroll behind her and begins to write a letter to her faithful student.

"Twilight and her friends may be able to assist me, maybe they can find and talk to Luna.."

Princess Celestia levitates some ribbon and sends the note in hopes of acquiring more help.

Silver Shield returns in attempts to negotiate a new search route, but as he enters he notices tears dropping from Celestia's face and overhears something.

"Please come home little sister.."

"Hmpf, I need to do more then sit around and wait, my vow is to protect the Princess. I know I can do more."

As Silver pandered on his thoughts he notices a trail of violet smoke leaving Princess Celestia's window.

He leaves the room at a swift gallop, following the violet powder towards the city gates and continuing outside the city. Silver continues to follow the trail of sparkles and dust to the city of Ponyville"

"Hmm, maybe whoever the princess sent this letter to can use my assistance as well, but I wonder who shes calling for help all the way out here."
