Chapter 5: Hearth's Warming Day
After a big flash, the married couple appear on their bed, hugging together while chatting...
"We swear! We will change!" They said.
They stop and look around.
"We're back in our room." Shining said.
Cadance head to the window and open it.
"It's morning. Flash Sentry!" Cadance call out.
"You call, your highness?" Flash asked as he enter.
"What day is this?" Shining asked.
"Why, it's Hearth's Warming day, my Prince." Flash asked.
"Did the guards get Nyx yet?" Cadance asked, worried if they are too late.
"No, your highness. They're waiting for your orders." Flash said.
"Yes! That's means it not too late! There's still a chance!" Cadance said in joy as she jump around of joy.
Flash watch his crystal princess in confuse.
"Tell the guards that their mission is cancel." Shining said.
"Yes, sire." Flash said before he went off.
Cadance suddenly stop.
"Nyx's presents!" Cadance said.
With that in her mind, Cadance run out of her and her husband bedroom. Shining follow behind. A while later, they arrive at the room of the room where Nyx's presents are.
"Please, oh please don't let anything happen to them." They whispered.
Slowly with their eyes shut, they open the door. When they open their eyes, standing right in front of them is lots of Hearth's Warming presents, Nyx's presents that is, all accounting for today.
"Yes!" Cadance said.
"I just got a plan!" Shining said.
"I know what you're planing. We must tell-"
Cadance was heading as saying only to bump on pony taller then her. Cadance look up and see Princess Celestia with Princess Luna by her Princess Sisters look pretty mad at Cadance and Shining who just join his wife.
"Oh no! More ghosts!" Cadance said in fear.
"Ghost? It just us." Celestia said.
"Oh. Thank goddess. I had enough with ghosts already. Wait a minute! What are you two doing here? Shouldn't you two be at Canterlot?" Cadance asked.
"We are here to talk with you two about your action yesterday." Luna said.
"We know what we did. And we are going to make things right." Shining said.
"Don't bother try to talk you way- Wait, what?!" Celestia asked in shock and surprise.
"We are going to fix what we broken." Cadance said.
"You are buffing." Luna said, not believing them.
"No your highness, really! Honesty!" Shining said.
"We're really want to make up on our niece. In fact, we are going to have..."
Cadance then led follow to the Princess Sisters and whispering to them about the plan. Slowly, the Princess Sisters smile at the plan.
"Very well. We'll pick them up while you prepare it." Celestia said.
(Meanwhile)
Nyx is still asleep on her mother's bed. Both Twilight and Nyx sleep together after what happen at Hearth's Warming Eve. Anyway, Nyx slowly awaking. Nyx walk down the stairs, seeing her mother, talking with her grandparents and friends, Twilight and Nyx's that is.
"Morning everypony." Nyx said with half happy and half sad.
"Morning Nyx." Everypony said.
Twilight's friends look at their friend's daughter in sadness as Nyx begin playing with her friends; the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
"I still feel bad for poor Nyx." Applejack said.
"Me too. It's no fun when somepony is upset." Pinkie said.
"Those crystal jerks have taken Nyx Hearth's Warming presents. That is 20% uncool!" Rainbow said.
Just then, there is a knock on Twilight's door. Everypony become wary. It could be the crystal guards that come to take poor Nyx away.
"Nyx, get behind me." Twilight said.
Nyx nodded and went behind her mother. Spike shaky, open the door.
"...Princess Celestia and Princess Luna." Spike said.
Everypony relax. Twilight went to the Princesses.
"Sorry Princess Celestia. We thought..."
"We are aware who or what you thought we were. That's why we come, we are here to get you and Nyx out of Ponyvile for the while." Princess Celestia said.
"Really?" Nyx asked, meet up with her mum and princess sisters.
"That's right. In fact, I believe it's best that everypony in this library, leaves as well." Princess Luna said, wink her older sister without others notice.
"Well, I'm sure will go with Twilight and Nyx." Applejack said.
"What kind of friend will I be if Twilight and Nyx are force to spend Hearth's Warming alone?" Rarity asked.
The others nodded in agreement.
"Good. Now, would everypony put on the blindfolds one?" Princess Celestia asked, hold out some cloths with her magic.
One by one, Everypony but princesses, put on the blindfolds.
"Now, relax as we use the teleport spell." Princess Luna said.
With that, the Princesses' horns glow and everypony and extra things(Wink) are transport in #coughs# room.
"Ok, you can take your blindfolds off." Princess Luna said with a smile.
With that, everypony took off their blindfolds and look around in surprise. They are in throne room of the Crystal Empire, full of Hearth's Warming decorations.
"What in Equestia?" Twilight asked.
"Happy Hearth's Warming day!" Princess Cadance call out as she and Shining Armor appear near them.
Suddenly, Twilight and her friends, even shy Fluttershy and not-fighter Rarity, circle around Nyx to protect her from Prince and Princess of the Crystal Empire.
"Calm down everypony. We are not taking our little niece away." Cadance said with a loving smile at Nyx.
"Ah?" Everypony asked.
"That's right. We are here to fix our mistake and hope to start over with Nyx." Shining said with a smile.
"R-really? But what abo-"
"Oh! Look! Nyx's presents!" Pinkie cut off Twilight while point the presents under the tree.
Rarity and Applejack head to check the gifts. Look like they all here-
"Wait. What is this?" Rarity asked while hold up the sparkly present with her magic.
"That's also Nyx's present from us." Cadance said.
After hearing that, Nyx got through between Twilight and Rainbow, grab her present and quickly untied the bow and tore the wrapping paper away.
"So un-lady like!" Rarity said.
"Oh, lighting up, Rarity. She's just excited." Rainbow Dash said.
Nyx opened the lid to the box. Inside was a beautiful crystal necklace. Twilight recognize the necklace.
"Cadance, that's yo-"
"I want Nyx to have it as a sign of family love she's always wants." Cadance said.
Shining nodded, helping his only niece putting on the necklace.
"Thank you Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor." Nyx said.
"I believe you mean; Auntie Cadance and Uncle Shining Armor." Shining said.
Nyx smile brighter.
"Nyx, sweetheart, Why do you and your friends go see what else you got?" Cadance asked.
Nyx nodded and run to the presents half here and half from Twilight's place, with her friends.
"Ok, you two, what's going on here?" Twilight asked.
"Well, it's hard to explain. You see..." Cadance started.
"You two have be visited by three scary ghosts that each took turns, showing you past, present and future, you regert and want to change your way and be uncle and auntie for poor Nyx. Right?" Pinkie Pie asked with very huge smile.
Cadance and Shining stare at her sister's super hyber friend in shock with jaw drop right on the floor.
"How did you know all that?" Shining asked.
"Just a hunch." Pinkie just said.
Cadance and Shining then, walk to their sister/in-law.
"We know what we did was wrong and we just want to say we're sorry we almost ruined Nyx's first Hearth's Warming." Shining said with his wife nodded.
Twilight just stare at them for the moment.
"...Even if I still mad at you two and want to turn you into frogs or flies, I forgive you." Twilight said with a bit smile.
The prince and the princess went smile and hug Twilight. Their parents join the hug follow by Nyx after seeing and want to be part of it.
"Awwww." Everypony said.
But then...
"Let's get the party start!" Pinkie said.
With that, everypony in the throne room starting to have fun. A while later, Everypony sit around the table, having their best Hearth's Warming dinner.
"Auntie Cadance, can we do this every year?" Nyx asked with a bit full mouth.
"Don't talk with your mouth full." Twilight just said.
"I'm sure we can." Cadance said.
And that is how Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor glow bound with their Nyx and they Pinkie Promise to never break the family love again. And so as Nyx Sparkle observed…
"Happy Heart's Warming!" Nyx said while laying on her Uncle's back, waving at the veiwers.
