private (1x1) To Rmance the Moon.

[dragon4111 914]

The Prince looked behind him to see "His bride" walking with some other stallion. He paid him no mind. Aaron gave him a wave.

"Hey, buddy. Whats goin' on? As you can see, we have a situation here."

Celestia looked to Luna. She looked tired and her mane was a mess.

"Luna you look terrible."

"Bah, what are you saying. She looks a beautiful as the night itself."

Luna felt like gagging.

 

(Last one for tonight. I want to do a personal project of mine.)

Draco didn't had that restraint and gagged. "God that was corny," Draco said as he rolled his eyes. "But here's a warning princey back of," Draco said as he stood between Luna and the prince. "Or I will invoke an ancient rite," Draco said as he looked at the prince with a glare.

[Mr. Critical 434]

The prince looked to the lowly commoner. Who was he to invoke anything upon him.

"Bah, away with you, street trash. I have no time for your petty threats. Now be gone. I have business with the lovely Princess."

Luna looked furious. Celestia and Aaron were watching from the side lines, watching the events play out. THey dared not get in the way of the Princess's fury. Plus if things play out right, they wont have to.

"How. Dare YOU! He is no street trash. He is the most loving pony I have ever met! He is three times the more pony you will ever dream to be! You are selfish, egotistical, disgusting thing I have ever had the displeasure of meeting! And if you dare insult my mate once more, you shall feel my wrath!"

The prince didn't faulter. He merely squinted his eyes.

"Whether you like it or not. You will be mine, or our countries will be at the brink of war once more."

Draco sighed and just grew angry. "You've forced my hoof," Draco said as he looked at the prince with murder in his eyes. "Prince Talos I Draco O'Malley of the O'Malley family knights of old here by invoke the ancient rite of Nex Sacramentum," Draco said as lighting sounded in the back ground indicating the magic of old was still law. "Your answer,"

[Mr. Critical 434]

The prince looked to the lightning. He didn't know what was going on, but he knew what the phrase ment.

"I-I, Prince Sky Talos the third, do accept your offer."

"THEN IT IS DECIDED!"

That was not the royal canterlot voice, nor was that Luna. They turned to search for the Booming voice. They saw Celestia looking to her left, her lover's eyes were glowing. And that voice echoed through the very city itself.

"THE TWO SHALL FIGHT IN MORTAL COMBAT THIS DAY! THOSE OF THE NAME PRINCE SKY TALOS THE THIRD AND DRACO O'MALLEY OF THE O'MALLY FAMILY! AS SUCH, HE WHO HAS DECLARED ANCIENT SACRAMENTUM SHALL SET THE TERMS AND SPOILS TO THE VICTOR! NOW, SPEAK YOUND O'MALLEY!"

Celestia was looking in awe. What had Draco done and what was this Nex Sacramentum he had declared?

[dragon4111 914]

"A 3 weeks from now we will be given time to prepare," Draco said as he looked at the prince that said it all 'You will die'. He looked at the poor sniveling prince. "Do you know what Nex Sacramentum is?" Draco asked the poor prince. "What you have agreed to?" he asked. "And the spoils shall be your throne," Draco said once more and his tone was cold. "We will meet in the arena. Send no one in your place or else the Death Oath will take your Life if you snd someone in your stead,"

[Mr. Critical 434]

Talos looked to Draco.

"Of course I know what it is. And I accept your terms."

The voice emanating from Aarons mouth heard his acceptance.
"SO BE IT. IN ONE WEEK, THE DUEL SHALL COMENCE! HE WHO DOES NOT ARRIVE AT THE DESIGNATED TIME AT HIGH NEEN SHALL HERE BY FORFEIT THE CHALLENGE! ANY ACTIONS OF HARM TOWARDS THE COMBATANTS, BE IT DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY INVOLVED, SHALL BE TERMINATED ON THE SPOT! AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THE TIME IS NOT EXCEEDED, WE SHALL HENSE FORTH MANIPULATE THE CELESTIAL BODIES! UPON COMPLETION, CONTROL WILL BE SURRENDERED BACK TO THE ORIGINAL KEEPERS!"

With that said, the voice disappeared and Aaron collapsed on the floor. Celestia went to his side to make sure he was okay.

"Well then street trash, the game has been set. I shall take accommodations else where. As for you my luscious beauty."

Luna got a look of annoyance from him.

"I shall see you in a week. When I win, I shall show you how a male takes charge of a female properly. Both emotionally and..."

He began to look her over.

"Physically."

Luna felt like she was going to throw up and burst into laughter.

Draco hissed as he got between Luna and the prince. "I need to head to my house Luna. With your permission Celestia I need to grab something from my home," Draco said as he looked at the two princesses. "Hmm I can see the newer guard armo is vastly improved than the old O'Malley armor," Draco muttered.

[Mr. Critical 434]

"You have my permission. Now go, I need to attend to Aaron."

Luna and Draco left the room to let Celestia do her thing.

"Are you sure you can win against him, my loves. He may be pompous, but he is mot to be underestimated. He has been trained in combat. I do not doubt you, I'm just worried for your safety."

"I've faced bandits, rogue couriers far more trained than I. And a princess of the night who demolished my home once befoire," Draco said teasingly at the last part. "I've also fought the griffin king in a spar. If I had to guess their fighting styles are the same way," Draco said as he nuzzled Luna. "I'll be fine my beloved mare," Draco whispered as he looked into her eyes. "Put your trust i this courier and you'll go far," Draco said reciting a line from the courier guild oath.

 

"Plus I might have my family's armor improved it's ancient but it's served my family well,"

[Mr. Critical 434]

Luna gave him a warm smile. As long as he was safe, she was at ease. Still, it lingered over her head.

"Very well, my courier. I have faith in you. You also have my favor as victor. Please don't disappoint me."
She knelt down and gave him a kiss.

"I will be cheering you on. Now..."

Luna's expression changed to a serious tone.

"In terms of your punishment for not letting us get back to our schedule. We expect you to treat us to dinner tonight. You will make us a romantic dinner and you shall treat us properly. Do I make myself clear."

Draco chuckled "Aye of course milady," Draco said as he kissed her passionately.  He smiled at her gently as he chuckled. "Hmm want to come see My family's armor while I make dinner for us?" Draco asked as he looked into her cyan eyes. "Your eyes are quite beautiful,"

"Celestia come by my home if you want to know what I invoked," Draco said over to Celestia.

"Alas, I cannot. I wish to return to my chambers. And I should check upon Tia and Aaron. I really do fear for his safety. And I would like to erase the prince's ghastly approaches on me. You understand don't you, my courier. Plus, that kiss just now, may have earned some bonus points for our next encounter in my room."

She nipped his ear, teasing him a bit.

Draco smiled as he looked at Luna Then planted a soul searing passionate kiss which also caused her wings to snap straight up. "My my my dear lay look at your wings," Draco said as he ushered his mare to her chambers. "I will need to check on Aaron though. I heard rumors about the judges,"

[Mr. Critical 434]

"Very well then. Let us make haste."

The two flew off to meet Celestia, who was in the medical wing of the castle, attending to Aaron and making sure nothing was harmed. She found that he was just unconscious and would be fine with some rest. Celestia was relieved.

"Celestia I'm sur your curious about what I invoked. Come to my home in Ponyville and I will tell you and Luna about it," Draco said as he looked at the two pony sisters. "I will make everything clear and Luna will be quite happy with the results I think," Draco said as he smiled slightly. "That was the judges of Nex Sacramentum or the Death Oath," Draco said as he looked over Aaron. "I will explain it when we get to my home,"

[Mr. Critical 434]

Celestia gave a nod in agreement.

"Very well. But I wish for Aaron to know the same as us. I will join you and Luna when he awakens. We will join you immediately. Until then, I ask that you wait for my love and I."

Luna gave a nod.

"As you choose my sister. If that is what you choose. Geoff, do you agree?"

[dragon4111 914]

Celestia gave a nod in agreement.

"Very well. But I wish for Aaron to know the same as us. I will join you and Luna when he awakens. We will join you immediately. Until then, I ask that you wait for my love and I."

Luna gave a nod.

"As you choose my sister. If that is what you choose. Geoff, do you agree?"

"Kinda need to get there now," Draco said as he picked up Luna. "Celestia get your boy toy and fly with me," Draco said as he walked out side. "Sleep if you have to on my back dearest Luna but we are on a time limit. "I don't want to be unprepared for the fight he might bring something to it,"

[Mr. Critical 434]

Celestia rolled her eyes at Draco's remark. She brought him onto her back and was next to the others.

"Let us go, then."

Luna and Celestia flew off following Draco to his home. Celestia was balancing her lover on her back. How long it would take, she did not know.

"It will be a week for us to prepare. Oh Aaron is waking up," Draco said landing infront of his door. His home was quite large. He walked in and motioned for the mares and human to get in quickly. He walked to his kitchen to start cooking dinner. "So d you three have questions for me?"

[Mr. Critical 434]

The three shook their heads. Although, Aaron could be just trying to wake up from the sudden possession.

"Neigh, my courier. We are familiar with the ancient ways. Though our subjects may have abandoned them, it is still something we know."
"Luna is correct. But the fact Talos knew was a bit odd. Maybe he was just trying to scare us."
Luna gave a nod.

"So, my courier, what is the plan of action?"

"So, my courier, what is the plan of action?"

"Do what I  always do," Draco said as he looked at his mare. "Follow through with my promise," Draco said as he laid out 4 plates of spaghetti with tomato sauce which had a pinch of sugar and a pinch of cayenne pepper. "But I will need to get my family's armor improved. It is from ancient times," Draco said.

[Mr. Critical 434]

"That should not be a problem. Tia has some of the best enchanters at the academy. If you wish, I could have a few placed on your armor. Including a few favors from me. Does that please you, my courier."

 

Celestia and Aaron were in the living room. Aaron was on the couch resting on Celestia. Her body was keeping him warm and comfortable.

"I see well that'll e fine with me my dear lady," Draco said as he gave Luna a kiss. "Now to see about the armor," Draco said motioning for them to follow him to the mini armory. He opened the doors to reveal a large amount of weapons. Some were rarer than diamonds others were as common as bits. But there on the far wall were large four gauntlets with large obsidian talons. "Ah those were a gift from the king before he passed for saving hs little girls life. Yes he has a princess," Draco said.

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron sat up and Celestia followed Draco and Luna to the armory. They began to look at all the blades. Aaron was a bit uneasy. He wasn't a fan of bladed weapons. But he could handle it. They then saw the armor in question. Luna thought it was beautiful. Though it could use a touch up.

"Truly it is armor worthy of my champion. But it could use a bit of a touch up.

I just said that.

Draco chuckled "Welcome to the O'Malley arsenal. Yes we enjoy weapons always have atleast the stallions in my family," Draco said as he looked at the gauntlets "So what o you think of this collection of wonderful weapons?" he asked as he looked excited to see the opinions on his weapons.
