For the next few months, Blue Blood's current objective was to observe the elements of Harmony time to time. He got a lot of profile info on each of them, but paid special attention to this Twilight Sparkle's Profile. Librarian, Grade-A student, Celestia's personal Protégé, all the good stuff.
He is usually undercover in town, sitting on benches or listening from afar with enhanced hearing spells to get intelligence on the wielders. He is glad that eaves dropping is his objective, because he wanted to learn more about her. He established that she was kind, smart, organized, caring and always depended on books for her problems. He observed all six of them when they had problems, and only interfered if it was violent.
For example: one time, Celestia asked them to get a dragon out of a cave nearby instead of sending Blueblood, because it was some sort of test. What Blueblood had too do was to insure the safety of the six by threatening, sorry, "negotiating" terms with the dragon on their safety. When one of the six kicked it, he got angry and attacked them.
Blueblood was on a nearby cloud, using a cloud spell and teleportation spell to get there. He set up his Sniper Rifle, a long fire arm used for long ranges and have bigger projectiles, and watched from afar just in case it got out of hand.
When the dragon got violent, he almost took the shot, until he saw the shyest of the bunch, the one called "Fluttershy", deal with him. It was too funny.
This other time, the one they call "Rarity" was looking for gems and got captured by Diamond dogs, a band of canine jewel thieves. Instead of attacking them head on, he would wait until the young mare would start whining, then activate a high pitch sound on one of his gadgets, too high for them to hear. The dogs where in pain and thought the source was coming from the young mare, and released her.
One day, while Blue Blood was taking a walk in the Palace grounds, he got a summon from Celestia. It regarded the Grand Galloping Gala that took place that day. He had to attend, since his "Alter Ego" was Prince Blue Blood, nephew of Celestia.
"My faithful Blue Blood" She began, sitting elegantly in her thrown "Today, is the grand galloping Gala day, as you probably know. I have gathered intelligence from my student Twilight Sparkle that one of her friends has an infatuation with you."
Blue Blood Blushed "W-what?"
"Indeed" Celestia said. "It seems one of your objectives has a 'crush' on you. This cannot happen!" She boomed, but somehow kept the kindness in her voice. He was still, confused.
"This harmless infatuation could be big problems for you in the future. Not only do I want you to make sure she doesn't fall in love with you, but I want you to make sure she isn't interested in you, understand?"
"Yes ma'am" he said emotionless.
He left the hall to think. Great Brave Blood, just great. He thought. Not only has the wrong mare fallen head over heels for me, the only way I can make her not like me is if I become an uncaring jerk. If I do, then Twilight Sparkle and the rest of the Elements will hate me, their guardian, and I wont have a chance to even befriend Twilight.
'right here at the gala…' Blueblood Mumbled to himself in his room, looking at the mirror. He was getting ready for this big night. He put his 'snobby' tuxedo on, as he put it, and fixed his mane so it looked like a Royal's mane style, with a strand of hair curled to the side. He hated his current look. But enough of that. This was it. Be a jerk. The one objective that would be the hardest would be to intentionally hurt your objective. Tonight will be a night to try and forget.
And oh was he right.
Blueblood Stood before the mess that was the royal hall. Broken pillars, cake everywhere, confetti litter, and face full of cake. He wiped what he could off of his face, but he still looked silly.
I need a drink
A minute later he was at a bar. All the guests have left and only the staff remained. Most of them where too busy cleaning the royal hall, but the bartender was there non-the-less. He walked up to the bar and sat on the stool. And asked for strong Cider whiskey.
"Shaken, not stirred" he said.
"Someone wants to forget this night" A voice to the left said. Blueblood turned, and before him, stood a tall handsome unicorn with a white coat, white mane with blue streaks in it. His cutie mark was a shield, and he wore a royal guard's officer's uniform.
"You where never big on the drinks, Blues" he said with a smile and sat down beside him.
"Major Armor" Blue blood said to him. Shining armor was a long friend of his, they go back to royal guard training, he would be the few people who talked to him, besides Sgt Driller. Blood and Armor kept in touch, and armor knew of his secret position in C.I.A.
"That's Captain Armor now" he said with pride 'Promotion yesterday"
"Bloody hell, you rose the ranks quick" Blood said, sipping his drink
Shining Armor Ordered a drink, then said "Well, so did you." Blueblood smiled for the first time today and laughed with his whole-hearted friend.
"So, what is your trouble, Blues?" Armor asked with concern. "The night wasn't all that bad, I mean, at least you got to see people you knew, I was stuck on duty, I couldn't even see my SISTER!" he said, with a frustrated tone.
"Don't worry, any sister of yours would be lucky enough even to be your brother, so she will probably forgive you." Blue Blood said with sincerity, completely oblivious to who his sister was.
Shining armor smiled. "Thanks." He said, sipping his finally arrived drink. "By the way" he said, changing the topic, "I was planning to propose to my girlfriend tonight, but I never got the chance, and that's why I'm completely bummed out. Couldn't accompany her to the Triple G." he said.
"Well, I hope everything works smashing for both of you, would you drink to your proposal?" Shining Armor Smiled. "Hell yeah"
That was the only thing memorable of the night, at least for Blue Blood.
