Aaaaaaand, we're back! Lol. Sorry for the wait but…..SCHOOL! SCHOOL AND HOMEWORK! I hate it. Lol. I do love the reading and writing but the sitting still and not being able to be coo creative for six to seven hours kills me! Lol, anyway, enjoy this and I hope you enjoy it too silly. ;D Sorry, I have to call him that. Hehehehe. :D :D :D
Luna smiled as he asked this. She looked back at him.
"You will see," Luna said with mystery hinting at her voice. For some reason…Leans Flair felt drawn to follow her. He had heard so many terrible things from other ponies about her but she seemed so sweet and she was really pretty too.
'Why am I thinking these things about the princess? That is not right.' Leans flair thought to himself.
Before he knew it, they were already on the ground. He fluttered his eyes in surprise. What he was seeing was so…unbelievable.
It was a whole…camp like thing. He honestly didn't know exactly what it was but it looked cool. It was also so beautiful. He took it all in and then looked over at Princess Luna. He stopped and his jaw dropped.
Luna was standing there and looking right at him, her eyes glowing so beautiful in the small light from the moon. She looked like she herself was glowing in the moonlight. He smiled a sweet smile. Luna giggled.
"What art thou looking at, dear child?" Luna asked sweetly. Leans Flair gulped and coughed nervously into his hoof. He blushed and smiled.
"I was just looking at…your beautiful…night," Leans Flair lied; now avoiding eye contact. The princess noticed this.
"It is not polite to not look at somepony when speaking to them. Look at me," Luna demanded more than asked. She cleared her throat, remembering to be a well-mannered royal and not rude. "I mean….please…Leans Flair…may you look at me?"
Leans Flair gulped and sighed. He did not think it was that great of an idea but he did not want to disrespect Princess Luna.
He sighed and he turned his head and locked eyes with the beautiful princesses' eyes. He blinked and stared into them. He didn't realize that he was smiling now. Luna tilted her head in curiosity.
"Why art though smiling?" Luna asked. Leans Flair cleared his throat.
"Sorry your highness but…I was just…distracted…"
"Distracted by what, dear subject?" Luna asked.
"Maybe you should just tell me what's going on…if you don't mind your highness," Leans flair said, not wanting to show how impatient and nervous he was.
"Thou are right, I shall explain more to you. I am sure you're still very confused about all of this," Luna said rather obviously.
"Umm…yes, very much confused," Leans Flair said.
"Well this place is a place secured for my children of the night. My dear sister has all of Equestria but this place is not even in Equestria really. It is just past the boarder. Surely you noticed that we were flying quite a long time. Well, this place is far from Equestria and it's a safe place for my own loyal subjects. My children of the night," Luna said with closed eyes and a smile.
"This is all so interesting but…I still don't…understand all of it. Could you maybe explain a little bit more, your highness?" Leans Flair asked.
"Of course, I'm sorry that this is all so sudden and confusing. As I said, you are a child of the night and prefer night to the day. You do not fear me like many ponies do. There are more of you but not many. You are a rare breed. It is a good thing…well it depends on how you look at the situation but it does mean that you could be in danger," Luna said.
"What? What kind of danger?"
"Ponies will look down upon you. They will think you are different and not like most. They will judge. They of course don't know you are my child of the night but if they find out…be careful. My sister's subjects can be much more judgmental and…one minded on things. It is sad but true. I fear for you but if you stay here you can be free to be who you really are and be carefree," Luna explained.
Leans Flair thought for a moment. He saw tents and little lights on. The ponies that lived here obviously stayed up at night. They probably did not come out in case of trouble. He liked this place but was also scared. He had not asked to be this…rare breed…this child of the night but he got it. He was nervous and scared but then again, intrigued. He had always thought that life was a bit sad and at times predictable with certain things. He had wanted something different in his life but…this could cause him to be in danger and he didn't want to leave his parents and siblings. He had them to think about. He would have to think long and hard about this.
"Princess Luna, I thank you for the offer but I just don't know what I should choose yet. I will need more time to think of this. I also have family who will wonder where I am soon. I don't know how this is going to turn out but I will come to you when I make a decision," Leans said.
"Alright dear subject, take your time. Just do not speak a word of this to anypony. Nopony shall need know of this place and of these ponies. Oh and come to the castle when you have made your decision. I will tell the guards to let you in when you do."
"Of course, I will not say anything to anypony. I will be sure to think long and hard of this. Thank you for understanding," Leans Flair said with a bow.
With that, the two ponies flew up and started their way back to Equestria.
