Author's Note: Sup peeps how is my favorite fanfic site doing, me I'm awesome so I can't complain, but you don't wanna hear about me and my greatness do you, well let's get on with the show, after these review shoutout of course and the disclaimer because i do need that. On a side related note from the responses I did recieve so expect one for the holidays.
dogbertcarroll: Ha you said foreplay hilarious, now time for my serious face. I do understand what you're saying and I'm grateful you will keep reading the story besides some of the flaws you pointed out. I never heard the gun on the mantle saying before, but I understand the meaning of the expression.
Ricchy1991: Indeed it is.
Ramen junky: How could you forget Lyra she's awesome well her hair color is in my opinion.
Shisarakage: It is curious, but that's the point of everything to keep you guessing in some sense isn't it?
Frytix: I plan to rectify that this very chapter!
The Perfect Crime Party:I'll be taking that little envelope then. I can't divulge anymore information as it pertains to the chapter, except that your excitement is well deserved.
The Guy You Always Forget: Well I hope it's like that because if not you'd be spying on me and that would be creepy, but congrats on winning ten dollars.
The King of Ranting: I'm glad my humor has amused such royalty as yourself.
FoxDemon1023:Well I can't really kill Shining armor off because that would throw off the meet Queen chrysalis thing and the plot for the royal wedding not to mention severely upset the balance of power in Canterlot. Fluer De Lis to be honest I never heard of her before and now after seeing her online I wish I knew about her sooner.
Cf96: The whole Dischord thing won't be happening for a while and even though I state that he is still at the front of my mind, Dischord's like epic in so many ways so I need to find something to suit his and my style, but I have one key moment in mind for that part of the arc.
No-Named-Dude: Well that being said it does kinda look sarcasm a little, but it's probably still paranoia.
Disclaimer time: The Spencersaurus does not own MLP:FIM as it is apart of the Hasbro corporation, and Naruto belongs to Kishimoto, there let it be said.
Chapter Nine: The magic of Canterlot part three:Tales of the night!
About eight at night or around the time.
The Canterlot hotel buzzed with excitement as their esteemed guests arrived all bowing before the two unicorn stallions trotting casually through the lobby. The first a withered old stallion that coat was as gray as the mane on his back, his flank held a mark resembling a drop of water, as his tail barely swished at the scene of the hotel staff bowing before them. His eyes held years of wisdom as it scanned the staff for any sort of weakness, his search came to a disappointment as they all seemed well-trained. "See boy the name Lulamoon strikes respect into everypony of equestria, this is what our name brings so don't be like your sister and throw it away on paltry things." The withered stallion watched as his companion just stared into his book surrounded by a yllow aura, seemingly dead to the world around him. "Bah stubborn mule even Celestia's student will have a hard time beating you, and yet your nose still finds its way in between those books." His cries of outrage again seemed to fall on the deaf ears of his companion, his interest all but lost in the unicorn in front of him until the book slammed shut getting everponies undivided attention, stopping the bellhop from removing the younger unicorns bags.
"I'll carry my own bags thank you." The soft voice echoed through the lobby as the book floated back into his satchel. The Lulamoon stood still as the tension began to ease through the staff, his black mane bristled as he adjusted to the newly added weight to the bags. "Can somepony show us to our room?" His scarlet eyes looking for anyone to deal with his grandfather even for the slightest of moments, he would be the one dealing with him once they began their stay here, as he had come accustomed to it since Trixie had left. His navy blue coat shivered as his grandfather stood next to him, the unease between the two clear as day to anypony present. "I believe it's under the name Crescent Lulamoon, or perhaps it is under my grandfather Azure Lulamoon?" The trepidation between the staff left as one lone mare stepped forward eying both stallions closely, the key hanging from her tail as she began to lead the way.
"Right this way please, we accommodated you as asked elder Lulamoon." Her voice held the slightest bit of fear as both unicorns walked beside her. the fear increased as they all entered the elevator, the mare couldn't imagine either one of them making small talk as they waited for them to arrive at their destination.
"Ah good, it has been a great while since either of us have visited Canterlot, I'll see it many more Manehatten equine come this way indeed." The oldest of the trio smiled as they stepped off the elevator, ignoring the ache in his hooves and the look of suspicion on his grandson's face, instead processing the finer details of the hotel decor. "Just think tomorrow you'll be showing all of equestria your own brand of magic." His mind clear as the day he'd achieve his cutie mark, tomorrow was going to be the day that all of equestria remembered why the name Lulamoon meant something. He was sure of that and nopony was going to upset, what he worked so desperately for. The mare led them through the , smirking at the glory this would bring him.
"Here we are, if you need anything else please don't hesitate to ask." Her smile lingered as the eldest of the two unicorns passed her by, the other remained in the hall staring into her eyes.
"Thank you miss, you assistance is much appreciated, I don't think will be needing anyponies help for the remainder of our stay so please do relax." His voice soothed the wary mare as she walked past him with the slightest smile. "Now to deal with grandfather and hopefully I'll get to finish my book then." His hooves trotted slowly into the room, it was bare of any sort of decoration, the faucets running water and both of them knew why, it was almost a matter of time before he'd see the real side behind the elders actions.
"Got anything to say now boy, or is that book too important to listen to your elder?" His voice raised only slightly to get the message across, ripples of water hanging in the air waiting for his grandson to close the rooms door. The first splash of water came crashing into him soaking him and the walls along with it, he waited for the stallion to rise back to his hooves before slamming another torrent of water into his chest. "Everypony respect me got that, no mule has ever disrespected me and by Celestia not some trash that thinks he special just like his moronic sister that abandoned him. I gave you both everything, and all either of you did was scoff in my face. You will not lose to some no talent trash or I swear the next time someone mentions the name Crescent Lulamoon will be in an autopsy report." His voice lowered to a hush whisper as the idle threat lingered between the two, his horn glew an aqua color as the water started to lift off the ground, and head back towards the gushing sink as it began to die down before turning off.
The stallion just watched as his grandfather left him drenched with water, each step he made his chest pounded to stop and take a breath. He was used to this sort of thing by now, the wounds were light compared to previous encounters when he was angry and he knew why tomorrow was too important for some injury to falter his prowess. Yes everything depended on one day to show equestria the Lulamoon pride, he couln't let anypony down tomorrow.
His horn glew with a sunny yellow hue as it the warm glow dried him off. "Don't worry Grandfather I'll win tomorrow, I'd bet my flank on it." His gaze turned toward his cutie mark a playing card with a crescent moon in the center, a constant reminder of his special talent. "Well time to finish that book and hopefully go to bed without disturbing grandfather." His horn glew removing the book and gently setting it down on the table as he read the night away lost in his book and the glowing light of his horn could be seen through out the city.
"Now tell me everything Lyra and don't shirk the details, I mean you are the one that brought it up after all." Bonbon looked at her lifelong filly friend Lyra hoping for anything juicy on the newest gossip topic Naruto Uzumaki. "I mean anything will do Lyra his height, the color of his mane even the size of his horn would do." She could hear Lyra giggle at the last part, both mare's were curious about the newest alicorn adn so far Lyra was the only one of the two to see him up close and twice at that, so here Bonbon was trying to get even the tiniest bit of information form the minty unicorn.
"It's complicated Bonbon, trust me he isn't like Princess Celestia or Luna at all." The mint unicorn thoughts of the alicorn as he first arrived in were dismal at best, when he arrived Lyra honestly expected a stallion with the composure only the rulers of equestria could match, which was dashed as soon as he appeared. The alicorn looked more of a bumbling fool as he looked on at everypony with wide doe-like-eyes. She was sure that if it wasn't for Twilight the alicorn would have stumbled around Canterlot as the locals gossiped on and on about him, and somepony took advantage of him.
"Come on Lyra, Prince Blueblood isn't like Celestia either, Lyra so I want more details than that." Bonbon's hooves clacked against the ground as she waited impatiently, knowing that her unicorn pal would eventually give in to her pleading, or clacking whichever got her the answer she needed.
Lyra glanced at her friend as she clacked her hooves constantly much to her frustration, Lyra truly hated when Bonbon got like this. "Stop it, please Bonbon." The clacking never stopped as it just got louder and louder as each passing minute went by. "Fine I'll tell you, just stop it already Bonbon." The clacking slowly died down as the mare finally stopped letting Lyra regain her thoughts. "Naruto looked stupid, really stupid the first time I saw him. The way he stared at the crowd as we all stared at him just grated on my nerves. He looked like one of those tourist that get off the train and then stare dumbfounded at the city." The thoughts of the alicorn bothered Lyra as she only could bring herself to say the flaws in his character, it was what drew her in though.
"Well what about the next time then, you're the one that said the first time." Bonbon's curiosity soon gave out as her hooves began to slowly clack against the ground in anticipation., before coming to a sudden stop remembering Lyra's distaste for such loud and unneccessary noise.
"He was different the second time, not the timid wall flower I expected him to be." Lyra watched Bonbon nod as the gleam of anticipation twinkled in her eyes, waiting for her to start again. "He was different the second time I saw him, like the awe of Canterlot wore off and everything around of him lost the appeal or I could be imagining that, anyways he got in a fight with Princess Luna, which I think now that they are meeting up later." Lyra could literally see the cogs running inside Bonbon's head as she processed the information. "Well you think on that and I'm going to practice now if you don't mind." She glanced at the Unicorn as she prepared herself letting her harp glow as the strings hummed waiting to be plucked. Her hoof barely grazed the first chord as the magic rang out echoing through the city as she played practicing under the full moon.
Naruto glanced at the present company, Princess Luna had come but sadly she didn't come alone. "Can you tell me why those guards are here?" He scanned the two as both glared back at the alicorn.
"We are most sorry Naruto, but my sister Celestia insisted on pegasus guards to protect me from wary citizens its more for their safety than ours." He could see the sincerity as the alicorn pleaded her heart out to him. "If thee is disappointed we can offer another night outing, perhaps at a later date say three moons from now?" Everypony stared at the orange alicorn some hoping for him to call it quits, while Luna just stared hoping for any answer.
"Naw that won't be necessary, I'll just have to think of something different then." His eyes scanned the group of guards as their glare insensified , as eh ruined the duo's night watching over the couple.
"Pray tell what do have in store for we, or does though expect we to think of our nightly acti..." She stopped as their eyes met, mischief was all she could see in those eyes, reminding her of the first time she had met him.
Naruto watched as the two pegasus guards looked away as they both talked. He leaned closer as his horn touched the tip of her head. "Tag your it." He smiled as he galloped down the light covered streets, his ears trying to listen over the constant clack of his hooves. He took the nearest left, travelling down a deserted street before stopping lookoing for the rest of his company to catch up. The pegasus guards shadows covered the ground below him, they grew as the pegasus shadows came closer towards the alicorn, before finally landing in front of him.
"Uzamki, we are not here for the leisure and games of one of Celestia's relatives."
"You're hindering our duty to protect the rulers of equestria, what do you have to say for yourself?"
"I'm sorry but it's just a little fun, too you know lighten the mood. The princess needs something to cheer her up after I kept her busy all day, especially since I was one the last one to sign up for this competition." His reponse didn't have the effect he wanted as the two pegasus stepped forward both nodding in agreement.
"We think you are offending the princess with your silly notions and games, yet she doesn't have the heart to tell you to leave her alone."
Naruto didn't gain the chance to reply as the clacking of hooves stopped right next to him. "We don't feel offended by Uzumaki's playful nature or is it your duty to think for we as well?" Naruto felt the warmth of Luna as she stood next to him, her wing touching his as she stood in front of her escorts. "We believe that both of thine have done your duty, we shall return when our buisness is done." The guards shuffled in place as the wings began to hesitantly flap, flying back to Canterlot castle.
"Thanks Luna, I could have handled them though." The alicorn stood in the lamp lit street as Luna laughed at the thought of him getting into even deeper trouble."Hey come on I can be serious, I saved you didn't I?" His voice a whisper as they now stood in front of each other.
"We know what you can do all too well, and we shall never forget your thoughtless deed Naruto." Her voice fluttered as she inched towards him, her nervousness was begining to override any courage she had as the gap closed inch by inch, before their muzzles met.
Kissing Luna the first time was something the blonde barely registered at the time the taste of saffron was evident. This was more of a warm cream as her tongue touched his wrestling for a short breif dominance, before parting letting his nose inhale the scent of saffron tickled his senses. "Luna did you mean that?" His body felt ablaze as the kiss had yet to wear off, even as Luna backed away from him.
"We were the one that initiated the kiss so yes, we believe that explains everything we feel for you Naruto." Luna stood opposite across form Naruto in the street, the taste of vanilla on the tip of her tongue a constant reminder of what she had just done. "Do thou not feel the same for me?"Her hooves gave a nervous shuffle as she waited for him to speak.
"I do fell the same, but I can't explain it's more than that, can I have some time to think about it?" He could see her wings stretch out as the lights dimmed around her, with a flap she rose off the ground and stared at Naruto.
"Naruto time is something you request, then on the day of the finale we shall speak until then I wish you good luck."
Naruto didn't need to see the tears rolling down her face as she flew away in sadness. "I'm sorry." His whisper reached no one on the desolate night as trotted back to his room, contemplating what he just did and what just happened.
Author's note: Yo peeps I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and are liking how things are turning out. If the date happened at Ponyville it would of been longer without interupptions. I think it's kinda cute how things are progressing between the two, will I continue their relationship oh yeah vut to what extent is the question.
Crescent was supposed to be orignally Lyra's brother, but I stated Lulamoon and that's what you get. Now for a fun fact on Trixie. During the episode Boast Busters she never once stated her last name, only reffering to as Trixie or The Great and Powerful Trixie, no mention of Lulamoon at all. The merchandise of Trixie is the reason why her last name is Lulamoon, though it opens a whole door of possibilities for all of equestria. She will appear in the boast busters arc and that's the next arc in my repitoire.
The next chapter will finally be the competition, and maybe another bomb could be dropped, but it is doubtful though. I just need You read it, now review it and then just review it ot get a shout out, I mean who deson't want to be mentioned in my storied even breifly?
