Truce and Punishment ~ Chapter Four

* * *

Zebranor have been living inside the Everfree Forest with a single cottage that was filled with sorts of items from their foreign land and have seen the image of the moon.

"Are you alright, dear brother?" SunBurst asked mixing the cauldron with a wooden spoon in the grasp of his magic while he threw in the night's ingrediants. "I am well, SunBurst. I have heard such rumors from PonyVille that their Queen have sent Nightmare Moon into the moon." He replied watching the moon begin to set into the west horizon.

"Are you sure? You do not sound well unlike before."

"Rumors must have filled my mind."

"Maybe. Maybe not."

Zebranor just chuckled before walking towards the cauldron on helping his brother and tasted the bubbling liquid.

"You forgot to put salt and pepper to balance the taste." He said watching SunBurst begin to frown and sprinkled a pinch of salt and pepper into the savory liquid. "Much perfect."

Then, he begin scooping up their supper into bowls and placed it into the table.

"Thank you, brother." SunBurst thanked as Zebranor gave him one of his rare yet warmest smiles and they both begin to eat their supper in silence.

"Did I smell something burning?!"

Their youngest brother, MoonShadow, came down from upstairs running before tripping on his own hooves and crashed face first from the wall.

The sound of the crash made the two cringed before MoonShadow stood up from the wall and begin to shook off the remaining dizziness running around his head.

"There is nothing burned, MoonShadow. SunBurst and I have been cooking supper for the three of us." Zebranor replied placing another bowl of supper on the table. MoonShadow removed the sleep from his eyes before sitting next to his brithers and ate supper.

"Nothing like I would have stopped myself from overreacting so much."

"Likewise, MoonShadow. Very likewise."

"Now, now. Be quit and eat. Before the supper with ran cold."

The trio begin eating their supper in silence, again, before putting their bowls in the washrack and departed off to bed.

~~Meanwhile at the Castle~~

"What do you mean by releasing Princess Celestia?! She is nothing but a prisoner in your reign! If you release her, then it is the end of your reign!"

"Do you acknowledge my power, Trixie?! Or you just want to be out of service of my reign?!"

She shut up before yelling another comeback which I had enough and fired her a harmless sleeping spell and a memory erase spell. Trixie slumped into the ground with a hard thud and I have ordered the guards to kick her out of my castle.

Taking deep, even breaths, I have called Princess Celestia from the dungeon and have let the necklace out of her neck. Now, I have Celestia out of her cell and freed her, I do not have the sun to matter under my hooves and I no longer have the control of the sun.

Kicking Trixie was no problem to me because since she is out of my service, she is NOT allowed to enter my castle in any response unless she have come here to challenge me into a magic duel once again.

"Release everypony from their cell and have them in my Throne Room before midnight. I am seeking a word from them." I ordered before departing into the castle's large library as it was filled with books. "And do not let anypony enter the throne room once I have a word already to them."
