Chapter 7
Princess Luna telepathically picked up a nearby cup of tea and sipped it daintily. Her sister, Princess Celestia, was entertaining some guests, five of the six heroes of Equestria. Celestia had invited Luna, but Luna politely refused the invitation, so now she was sitting on her couch reading a book and drinking tea. She didn't want to admit it to anypony else, but she was bored. She set the book down and sighed. She could go to bed early, she had been lacking sleep, but it was only ten, and she had woken up at seven (P.M. of course). Still contemplating on what to do, a knock came from her door. "Enter." She commanded, a lone unicorn stallion guard opened the door; he looked scared, no that's an understatement, more like he was shaking in his armor. "Uh, pr- pri- pr- prrinccess?"
"Yes?" Luna asked, curious as to why the guard was shaking.
"Th-the-th- there's s s so- sompony to s s see you in th- the h-hall."
"Very well, who pray tell- err, who is it?" Luna still had trouble speaking this more "casual" way of speech.
"Uh, he, uh, big, um…"
"Pardon me." A loud, booming voice interrupted, the guard turned and looked at something. Luna couldn't tell what it was, her doorway was too small, but whoever this was it scared the guard. Princess Luna got off the couch and stepped into the hall to see who was scaring the guard, and there before her stood a large, red, forty foot tall, metal minotaur. She stared at it, partially out of fear, but partially out of curiosity. The creature bent down to look the dark blue allicorn in the face, the fear part started to increase. "Are you Princess Luna? Guardian of the night and co-ruler of Equestria?" She looked at him; something inside her told her that he wasn't there to hurt her, so she swallowed and bravely told him. "Yes, I am the Princess Luna you speak of." The large minotaur then stood up, keeping his eyes on her, and said. "I am Sentinel Prime, I am here to warn you and your sister of an evil unlike this planet has ever seen."
"An evil? My sister and I have fought many 'evils' in our lifetime, and now the six heroines of Equestria have vanquished King Sombra, an ancient evil that had once enslaved an entire city."
"Perhaps they have, but Decepticons are much more dangerous." Sentinel looked around, and then lowered his voice, "Will you be able to have you, your sister, and the six heroes meet us somewhere? I fear that this castle maybe too close to Decepticon audio-receptors. I will send two escorts here in about one mega-cycle, which is one earth hour, outside the castle. Can you make the appointment?"
"I believe so, but, how do we not know that you are not evil as well?"
"You don't." Sentinel then bent down and right before Luna's eyes became a large box, with wheels and two ladders on the sides, he then left the Princess, still half-stunned by this visitor. She didn't know why, but she quickly walked towards the main dining room, where her sister was having her party. She came to the two large doors, took a deep breath, and knocked.
