Storm woke up early as always to start a new day and his job. He put on his goggles when he went out of his cloud house, heading to his usual place for breakfast to grab a quick meal before flying out to the Ponyville's sky to work: patrolling to see if anything is wrong with the weather and checking for rogue thunderclouds.

Chrysteel once again takes on her guise and heads out to begin her day. This time she had spent the night helping at the local orphanage. She heads out to observe the locals and gather a much needed meal. She feels she must feed again soon. She desires more then anything a Love that is willingly given to her. She feels it will help her in her mission.

 

She is stoped by a pinkie pony with a darker pink mane and tail. She says, "Hi I'm Pinkie Pie. Here is an invitation to my next party at Sugarcube Corner. Please come. It going to be fun."

 

The Pinkie Pie bounces off to deliver the rest of her invitations.

 

Chrysteel is confused at first but decides to go to this party.

 

-in the sky-

 

As Arcing is patrolling, Pinkie comes into view, "Hey Arcing, I have a party invitation for you! Come and get it!"

[Thunder Tinker 659]

Storm rolled his eyes in amusement as he saw Pinkie Pie on her hot air balloon again. Where in the world she gets these thing, he will never know. "Thanks, Pinkie." Storm flew by her and snatched it, putting it into his saddlebag. Once he was done with his morning patrol, which was done quickly, he landed at the Sugarcube Corner and walked inside. Once inside, he spotted a familiar mare, but he hadn't asked her for her name or introduced himself to her yet. He walked over to her and greeted her. "Good morning, here for the party?"

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel is sitting at a table and eating some home made pink cupcakes and muffins. "Hello and yes. They said it won't start till this evning. Cupcake? They taste wonderful."

 

Chrysteel holds out a cupcake for him and offers a seat. She then says, "Normally I would have to approach the pony and start talking to them before they would talk to me. Your the first to come to me."

"No thanks. I have already had breakfast today." Storm tried to be as polite as possible as he declined the offer. But he sat down at the table with Chrysteel nevertheless. "Name's Arcing Storm, but just call me Storm. And what do you mean by me being the first to come to you?"

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

"It is because I look like those Changelings. The only difference they can see is color and it still scares them. I am just a Flutterling trying to get by."

 

Chrysteel has a small look of sadness on her face but it quickly changes to a smile. "However once Ponyville got to know me I am able to help around town. Farming is exhaughting work but can be fun if you try. I have been helping that carrot farmer. Never really learned her name. Last night I helped out at the local orphanage. The children are nice but I still can't find what I am looking for."

[Thunder Tinker 659]

Storm didn't even phase, looking as if he is used to seeing Changelings somehow. "Excuse me, 'Flutterling'? Is that what you call yourself?" He asked curiously. "And what are you looking for? I'd be glad to help you find it if you don't mind." He offered, smiling warmly at her.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

"It is several things actually. But only one do I seek at this time. I heart about a very rare flower called 'Mother's Love'. I don't know how to find it or even where it grows. Those I have talked with say it is only an old mare's tale."

 

Chrysteel finishes her meal before ordering two drinks. Pinkie says, "Don't worry about it. These two are on me. Just make some friends." Pinkie smiles while giving her the drinks.

 

Chrysteel comes back to the table and offers one of the drinks to Storm. "I hope you don't mind. I got us some Milkshakes to drink."

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"Mother's Love. That sounds familiar... Maybe I have heard about it somewhere." Storm was thinking until Pinkie dragged him back into reality and he thanked the two. "Thanks again, Pinkie. You too, Miss..." He hadn't known her name yet, grabbing the milkshake while he waited for her answer.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel says, "Oh sorry. Where are my mannors today. I am Chrysteel Amorè..." She then thinks, 'Should I tell him my last name. No it will reveal to much. I am not ready for Ponyville to know of my origins yet."

 

She just leaves it as Chrysteel Amorè for now. She looks a little uncomfortable about something. She also doesn't look to be willing to talk about it.

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"Miss Amorè..." Storm frowned, worried that he might have done something wrong. He was about to ask her what was wrong but he decided against it. "About the Mother's Love... I think I might know who knows about it. I'll take you to his place if you are interested." He offered.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

"As long as we can still make pinkie's party. I don't wish to be rude."

 

Chrysteel gets up and finishes her drink. She then says, "I am still trying to get the bits to get me my own house. Any ideas that could help?"

 

Chrysteel waits for him before making her way out of sugarcube corner.

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"We can. I'm sure." Storm finished his milkshake quickly and was ready to leave. "I can lend you or you can live with me, although I don't think you can stay on clouds, can you?" He walked with her out of the Sugarcube Corner and suggested his ideas. "And don't worry about me going broke. I have saved up a lot of bits."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel looks to him and says, fluttering her wings, "I have had cloud naps before. I find clouds to be the most comfortable."

 

Chrysteel follows Storm wherever he is leading her. She thinks, 'Will it be that easy to find this Love flower.'

 

Chrysteel waits for him.

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"Then I think you can stay in my house. If you don't mind, of course." Storm smiled and took off, flying over Ponyville as he headed straight to Techy's house. "Techy knows a lot of things, and I think he will have at least some information about the Mother's Love."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel smiles at that. "I have learned one thing about that flower. It requires true love before it can bloom. I have heard about that from the story about the flower."

 

Chrysteel flies with Storm. She isn't very fast but her grace and elegence in the air is almost a natural part of her nature.

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"True love?" Storm was intrigued, looking back at her briefly before looking forward again to ask her something with a curious tone. "Can you tell me the story about it? And why are you looking for this flower? Oh and you can tell me to stop when I ask too many questions." He chuckled silly,

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel says, "I heard the story from one called Zecora. She told me the tale. I only remembered that part of the tale. However it is said to be a flower of romance. As for why I am looking for it, well...It has also been said that this flower can break a curse revolving around love. My brothers and sisters have been hit by such a curse and I wish to make a potion to break said curse. Zecora said she would help me make the potion if I brought her the flower."

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"...You also have a hunger for love like Changelings do?" Storm asked after having thought about what she said for a short while. He looked back at her and didn't notice the cloud in front of him, crashing into it. "Oof!" He yelped as he went inside the cloud, peeking his head up from inside it with a silly smile. "My bad."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel chuckles a little bit at his antics. "Our kind usually spreads love wherever we go. But a curse has reversed our racial purpose. Instead of spreading love, we have been cursed to consume it. Our shapes have also been changed to match the form of the curse. It is too complicated and embarrassing to explain."

 

Chrysteel jumps on the cloud causing it to disperse and release the pony within it. She also held his leg so he didn't fall. "Better?"

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"Yeah. Thanks." Storm hovered on his own. "At least you don't look too bad compared to other Changelings." He took off in the direction he was heading until he crashed into the now non-existing cloud. "You are trying to get the Mother's Love to make a potion and reverse the curse? Is that right?

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel says, "We Flutterlings are actually what you now know of as Changelings. I hope you aren't scared. Many a pony normally are. As for breaking the curse, It is actually an evolution requirement. To achieve ones true power the Love hunger curse must be broken. There are other conditions but I don't know them."

 

She continues to follow after him.

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"From what I have seen from you, why should I be scared? You aren't like a mindless drone which goes around and hunt for love." Storm replied with a warm smile. Soon, he landed in front of a house and knocked on the door. "Techy? You home?" He called and soon, a stallion unicorn with a electric ultramarine coat with a cyan azure mane showed up, opening the door with a bright turquoise magical aura. "What is it?" He asked.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel remains quiet but also stands close to Storm. She hides part of her face behind her mane. She seems to be really shy. She also can't seem to find the words to say. She says in a shy voice, "H-hello?"

 

She looks to be extremely shy around others. She almost acts like Fluttershy.

[Thunder Tinker 659]

"Do you know anything about a flower called Mother's Love?" Storm asked and Techy nodded, motioning them to come in. He closed the door with magic once they are inside, leading the way up to his office where he kept books and his researches. "...Ah. Here it is." He retrieve a scroll from a drawer, making it float over to the table and opened it.
