The Lost Land
Fix the lost kingdom
Lightning and Snow as gone on many dates together most of their dates as been kissing and cuddling. Snow sent a letter to Cadance to announce her of the new found love in Canterlot! Which of course she was over joy and supportive but Celestia, Luna and Mid were unaware of Lightning new found love with Snow. One day when Celestia was walking to her daughter's room. To see how she was doing with her work she opened the door to see her daughter kissing Snow.
"LIGHTNING!" shouted Celestia as she looks at the couple separate from each other "What! Are you doing?!" as she used her magic to bring her daughter closer to her.
"Nothing!" shouted Lightning as she tried to remove from her mother's magic "We…..we…were…just….uh…"
"There no point, Lightning" said Snow as he stood up from the ground "She, found out about us"
"Alright fine were dating" said Lightning as she confess to her mother "There nothing to get mad at mom"
"And you didn't tell me!" said Celestia as she was in shock to found out her daughter didn't tell her
"N, we didn't because I knew you were going to act like this" said Lightning while she stares at her mother "Now what are you going to do?!"
"Nothing for now" said Celestia as she walks out of Lightning's room
"For now?!" said Snow as he worriedly look at Lightning
The next day Lightning was thinking about her family's castle and had a great idea. But she suddenly got an unexpected visit from some family and who weren't so happy too.
"Lightning! You're dating HIM!" shouted Mid as she started to shake her cousin around
"Ye….ye…yes…..!" answered Lightning while being shake
"Are you out of your MIND!" shouted Mid as she finally let go of her cousin
"There nothing wrong with it….wait a minute how did you find out?!" ask Lightning as it was only her, Snow and her mother! "My mother told you!"
"She did well she told my mother and I overheard it! Now that I think about it you will probably get a visit from her as well" said Mid as she smiled at her.
"Oh boy!" said Lightning as she knew her aunt is exactly like her sister
Like excepted Luna arrived at the castle do have a little chat with her niece but she was joined with her mother and cousin. For the three hours Lightning had to listen to her family telling her she made a horrible mistake but she didn't they all failed Lightning still refused to break it off with Snow, later that night Lightning headed to her mother's room to tell her something.
"Mom!" said Lightning as she walk in her mother's room "I need to ask you something?"
"Are you going to break up with Snow?!" ask Celestia with a hopeful tone in her voice
"No!" said Lightning straight out "I didn't came of that!"
"Oh! To bad! Alright then what is it?" ask Celestia as she watches her daughter sit down in front of her
"I would like to restores, The Cloud kingdom" said Lightning as she knew that there no better way on saying it "And, once I'm finish maybe live in castle?"
Lightning saw her mother just stare at her in a surprise look
"Mom?" said Lightning as she wanted to hear her mother's response "What's the matter?"
"I never thought, you would go back" said Celestia as she look away to hide her tears "To your castle"
"I want to, Mom" said Lightning as she lay down next to her "I want to bring The Cloud Kingdom and its citizens back"
"Do you wish to ruler over them?" ask Celestia as she put her wing around her "Like you parents did?"
"I never thought about that!" said Lightning as she thought about it for a moment "I suppose if that what the citizens want"
"If that what you wish, Lightning" said Celestia as she hug Lightning with her wing "Then go ahead"
"Thanks, mom" said Lightning as she smiled at her mother "I'm going to tell, Snow"
"You are? Why" ask Celestia as she watch Lightning stood up and walk towards the door
"So he could help me" answered Lightning as she walk out of her mother's room
After Lightning left Celestia spent the rest of the night thinking of her daughter and Snow rebuilding the castle. Which she didn't like so much she would prefer to see Lightning with anypony else but HIM! She couldn't believe that in all of Equestria, all the stallions of this planet! Her daughter fell in love with the pony she hated with a passion!
"Coming!" shouted Snow as he walks to the door and opened it "Lightning!"
"Hey, Snow" said Lightning as she walk in his room "I got a proposal for you"
"What is it?" ask Snow he look at her
"Do you want to rebuild my kingdom with me?" ask Lightning as she sat down
"Sure, I would love to" said Snow as he sat down in front of her
"Really!" said Lightning as she hugs him "That awesome! We get start tomorrow!"
"Of course!" said Snow while he was blushing from Lightning's hug
"See you tomorrow morning!" said Lightning as she walk out of his room "Night"
"Night" said Snow as he waved at her
The next morning Snow was awoken by somepony jumping on his bed, he opened his eyes to see Lightning. Lightning used her magic and got Snow out of bed, a few hours later there were ready to leave Canterlot.
"Lightning, what if that hat?" ask Snow as he pointed with his hoof
"It's going to be sunny!" said Lightning as she glance at the sun "Do you want one?" as she used her magic to take a hat out of her bag.
"Alight" said Snow as he used his magic to take the hat
"Ready, Snow?" ask Lightning as she readjusted a harmer to her bag
"Ready, Lightning" said Snow as he opened his wings
Lightning and Snow arrived at Cloudsdale and decided to walk the rest of the way, both of them were talking when they were stop by a Pegasus couple.
"Excuse me?" said the stallion as he look at Lightning and Snow "What are you doing with all those tools?"
"Were going to rebuild an old castle" said Lightning as she saw that the couple expression changed
"What castle?!" ask the mare as she walk towards Lightning
"The Cloud Kingdom's castle" answered Lightning
"Are you a citizen? Like us" ask the stallion as he walks towards Snow "You're going to wait for the return of the princess, right?"
"Well…" said Lightning as she glance at Snow who gave her a node "Not exactly a citizen"
Lightning removed her hat and bag to reveal her horn and wing, the couple stared in shock and immediately bowed.
"Princess Adelind!" shouted the stallion "It's great honor to finally meet you!"
"I can't believe it you!" shouted the mare "We always knew you would come back!"
"Are you here to take the kingdom back?!" ask the stallion as he stood up "Are you going to be our Queen?!"
"Yes, but first I need to fix the castle and kingdom" answered Lightning as she used her magic to put her hat and bag on.
"May we help?!" ask the stallion as he looks at his companion "It would be a great honor to help you!"
"Of course you can" said Lightning as she smiled at them "And you could bring as many ponies, as you want"
"Thank you, princess!" said the couple as they bowed once more and flew off
Lightning and Snow finally arrived at the castle after being stop by five more pegasusi, who were all surprise to finally meet the lost princess.
"Where should we start?" ask Snow as they both look at the old and broken castle
"Well the outside of the castle" said Lightning as she look at the dead planets
"Alright" said Snow as he put his bag down to take out his tools
"Princess!" heard Lightning and Snow as they both turn around they saw a huge group of pegasusi ponies. That stretch as far as the eye could see even farther than that.
"Wow!" said both Lightning and Snow as they look at all the ponies who bowed "Do you all of your ancestors live in the kingdom?"
"Of course, princess" said one of the stallion as he and the others stood up "We are here to help you and bring back our home!"
"Wow! Loyal to their ruler, exactly what the legends and rumors says" said Snow as he look at Lightning
"We will split up in four groups!" shouted Lightning "One will work on the outside of the castle, two will to the city and buildings so that one should me bigger than the others, three and four we be in the castle and fix all of the rooms"
Lightning and Snow watch in amazement as the large group of ponies all spilt into the four groups and all went to their sections and started to rebuild.
"Where should we go?" ask Snow as he watch a few ponies going to their groups
"Well I'm going inside the castle; you can go where ever you want" said Lightning as she started to walk towards the castle "If you want you can come with me"
"I'll come with you" said Snow as he followed Lightning to the castle
For the rest of the day Lightning, Snow and all the ponies that came to help have done amazing work. The amount of work that the ponies did, would have taken two years to do if it was only Lightning and Snow.
"Thank you, everypony for coming!" shouted Lightning as she look at all of the ponies "We will continue tomorrow morning, go home and take a good night rest!"
Lightning and Snow return to Canterlot who were greeted by Celestia and Luna.
"Hello Mom, aunty" said Lightning as she landed with Snow
"How the castle going?" ask Luna as she hug Lightning
"Very well!" said Lightning as she smiled at them both "As we were walking to the castle we were stop by many ponies, whose ancestors all lived at the castle"
"And they all came to help us!" said Snow as he look at Lightning "The castle is going very well, I think we'll be finish this month"
"That's great to hear" said Celestia as she hugged her daughter
For the next month Lightning, Snow and the citizens of cloud kingdom all rebuild. The outside of the castle and the inside, city and the gardens and planets. Today was the day were Lightning was going to presents The Cloud Kingdom, to all of Equestria. Lightning only had to let the press and media know about it and they would do the rest.
"Hello, everypony!" shouted Lightning as she stood on the castle's balcony to see all of the ponies who came "It's my greatest pleasure to welcome you to the cloud Kingdom! I am so happy to see unicorn, earth ponies and pegasusi who all came to the rebirth of the kingdom. I would like to thank the descendent of the citizens who lived here so many years ago, without their help the kingdom would have never been rebuild this fast"
Lightning waited for the ponies to finish cheering and shouting with joy
"Welcome to the Cloud Kingdom!" shouted Lightning as she used her magic to lower the castle emblem
Lightning return to the castle while everypony went off to discover the lost kingdom that is now reborn.
"This castle is wonderful!" said Luna as she look around the room "It's like the rebelling never happened!"
"You've done excellent work!" said Celestia as she look at a painting that made her shade a tear "Is…is that what I think it is!"
"Yes, we restore the painting of my parents" said Lightning as she walks towards the painting with her mother "And many more paintings like that"
"They would be so proud" said Luna as she walks towards the painting "And so are we"
"Thank you, aunty" said Lightning as she hugs her aunt "Mom" then her mother
"Are you planning on taking over the kingdom?" ask Celestia as she look at Arena's crown
"Yes" said Lightning as she also look at her mother
Later that night Lightning completely forgot to inform her cousin about the recent events!
