Royal Suite
Nomi Looked around the Royal suite that Luna and Celestia had brought him to. I was huge with a space full of plush couches and A large TV. The living area lead to four separate rooms, One for each princess, A room for the royal guards, and the last was for other personal the princess had brought with them. All of them had walk in closets and separate bathrooms.
"Nice place" Nomi said turning to the princesses.
"Yeah" Luna agreed "Mcfist may be a jerk but he knows how to make a decent suite"
"Luna!" Celestia hissed
"What?" Luna asked " You can't say you don't agree, you don't really like him either"
"You're right" Celestia agreed " I don't like him, But I wouldn't call him a jerk"
Luna flopped onto one of the many couches becking Nomi to do the same. "Come,We have a lot to catch up on"
Nomi laid down on one of the couches, staring at the ceiling. He let a nostalgic smile appear on his face "You guys remember when we first met?"
"WHAT ARE THEY DOING?!"
Viceroy flinched as his boss burst into the room. Turning around he gave Mcfist a mild glare.
"At the moment, talking about their childhood" he replied before turning back to the plans for his latest robot. When the princesses had brought back the Ninja's ally Mcfist nearly blew his lid. Viceroy came up with the idea of watching the live security camera footage to see if they could learn anything, and of course Mcfist claimed it was his idea. So began the process.
"They're talking about THEIR CHILDHOOD?!" Mcfist yelled "WE HAVE THE NINJA'S ALLY IN OUR BUILDING AND THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT THEIR CHILDHOOD!"
Viceroy used his wings to plug his ears. "Yes they are, it's not like they know we are listing" he poured his sarcasm in to his answer.
Mcfist grumbled "Fine, call me when it gets interesting" with that he marched out of the room.
Viceroy sighed and back to the screens, going off the rate they were going this was going to be a long day.
Nomi and the princesses had been talking for what seemed like hours. They were on the subject of their early adult years.
"Remember when we decided to try out that spell that would allow a pony to….take…..a" Celestia's sentence slowly faded to a stop. She cast a sad glance at Nomicon. Nomi looked unaffected by the unfinished sentence.
"Nomi, I'm so sorry" she sighed "I didn't expect everything to go wrong that day. It was me who-"
Nomi stopped Celestia by placing his hoof over her mouth
"Tia, that was 15,000 years ago" He smiled "And I forgave you 15,000 years ago"
The moment was ruined by Luna face hoofing
"I actually forgot about the book thing" She groaned " So you're back, does that mean that the spell wore off?"
Nomi shook his head "sadly, no" He sighed "I've been building up my magic for years. Being able to return to this form takes energy and I can't sustain it forever. The spell is permanent"
"Until a counter spell is made" Celestia cut Nomi off " I can get my student to look into it. She is great with this kind off stuff"
"You have a student?" Nomi raised a brow
"Yes, yes I do, her name is Twilight"
Nomi laughed to himself "I have one as well, the ponies here call him Ninja. Been my job for 800 years now"
"Well that explains why he had you in his possession" Celestia said.
"Am I the only one without a student" Luna asked feeling a little left out.
The three shared a laugh.
Nomi was the first to stop, the hours off staying in his form were catching up with him.
"Nomi" Luna asked "are you alright"
"Yeah" Nomi said "Running out of time to be in this form. I need to get back to my student"
"I'll walk you" Luna jumped off her couch. Looking at Nomi's tired form with worry.
Celestia stood as well, picking up her shoes, chest piece, and crown from the floor and putting them on
Nomi grabbed some paper and a quill and quickly scribbled down a note for Randy to Meet him in the park as the ninja and sent it "My student will meet us in the park"
Luna grabbed her chest piece, crown and shoes as well "Let's go"
The smile on Mcfist's face was impossibly large. He watched as the Ninja's teacher changed back into the book he was all too familiar with. The youngest of the Princesses picked him up and placed him in a bag that was near the door.
Viceroy felt a little sick to the stomach. It was obvious that the conversation was private and he had heard more than he wanted, especially how the Nomicon had become the Nomicon.
"GET A ROBOT OUT TO THE PARK!" Micfist screeched "I NEED TO CALL THE SORCERER" and with that he marched out of the room.
Viceroy looked at his half finished robot and sighed. Activating the robot, he marked a win for the ninja in his mind. A normal everyday pony could destroy this thing.
Randy yawned, He was just about to go to bed when Nomi asked him to pick him up in the park and he had now officially not slept in two days. Keeping in the shadows to avoid attention he made his way to the park. After reaching the park he laid down under a tree, deciding that a quick nap wouldn't hurt.
"Look out!"
Randy groaned as a frisbee hit his head.
"Sorry, my friend over...shot"
Randy looked up to see a very familiar pegasus
"Oh, hey Theresa."
"I'm SO sorry Ninja" Theresa looked slightly panicked, realizing she hit the city's hero with a frisbee
"It's okay"Randy laughed, giving the plastic disk back to her.
"What are you doing here?" Theresa asked.
Randy playfully raised an eyebrow "what do you mean? Am I not allowed to be out and about too?"
Theresa Blushed "oh no no no, that's not what I meant" She stammered out " It's just you usually only show up when there's a monster or robot to fight and we don't see you out and about like this" She hid her face in her hoofs out of embarrassment.
Randy laughed "I'm messing with you. I know it's not normal for me to be out like this"
"So... what are you doing here?"
"Meeting up with someone, then hopefully, a nap"
"Tired?"
"Tired doesn't cut it" Randy yawned.
"Theresa! What's taking you so long?"
"Coming!"
"Well, I guess I'll see you later"
"More like save me later"
Randy laughed as theresa flew back to her friend. Curling up, he rested his head on his fore legs and closed his eyes. He wasn't sure how long he was asleep, but he was woken up by someone poking him.
"Ninja?"
"Hmmm?" Randy looked up to see the Princesses, Luna holding a paper bag. Randy shook the last of his sleepiness away and stood, bowing to them.
"There is no need for such formalities, Ninja" Celestia chuckled
"Yes, we are just here to drop off Nomi" Luna pulled Nomi out of the bag and handed him to Randy "Thank you for letting us see him again, you won't believe how much I missed him"
"Don't thank me" Randy said " He's my teacher, he doesn't need my permission to do stuff"
"That is true" Celestia chuckled and looked to the sky "We should be going, We don't want the guards to notice we're gone"
"Agreed sister" Luna stated "Tell Nomi to write when he can"
Randy looked down at Nomi "You heard that Nomicon? They want you to write"
Nomi answered with a bright flash.
"He heard you"
"Well then, bye Nomi, bye Ninja" Celestia smiled as she turn around and started to leave.
"Bye Nomi, bye Ninja" Luna quickly turned and caught up with her sister.
Randy tucked Nomicon into his sash and started to head home when a loud thud and the sound of screams caught his attention. Galloping over to the commotion he saw a robot that looked like a large diamond dog, except it wasn't even finished. Missing panels exposed the wires and it only had one eye. The diamond bot took two steps before falling over. Randy sighed and shook his head, a quick look around revealed a small crowd of ponies, including Theresa,Debbie Kang and a familiar looking group of six ponies.
"I honestly feel kind of bad for this guy" Randy said in a joking manner "He just lost a fight with the ground"
The crowd responded with a mix of laughs and groans.
Rand proceeded to walk up to the robot and pull out it's wires, shutting it down. With that done decided he deserved a nice, long nap in the comfort of his own bed.
