Cynder elbowed Spirit after his snark. "I'm Cynder Ardor, remember?" She said. "Of the Ardor family? Maybe you've heard of us? We're kind of a big deal."

"...." Spirit nearly face-planted in his place, a terrible expression of realization on his face. He pretty much wobbled as he walked for a few moments. How had he not realized it before!? She was a noble, just like he was! It sickened him just a bit, and he very nearly thought he was going to throw up. Only his prior knowledge and friendship of her actually prevented him from becoming actually sick.
"I... I... I... always thought... it was just a coincidence, that Ardor was your... last name." he replied, a bit shaken from his realization.

"Well it's not." Cynder said. "And I was going to use that to help you out. They wouldn't dare try to touch me. And as long as you were with me, you would be more safe than by yourself." Cynder thought it was a pretty good plan. She even came up with it all by herself.

"... ... ... ... ... You're insane." he flat out told her, and then suddenly gave her a peck on the cheek, continuing to walk on with an apparently blank face, but Cynder could tell exactly what he was thinking.

Cynder stopped in her tracks, but was promptly hurried along by one of the guards. She wondered if the blush was apparent on her face or not. "It's a good plan and you know it."

"If you're okay with the possibility of starting a house feud, then yes... its a great plan." Spirit explained to her. "Still isn't why you just got that peck... but that's not my concern. You're putting your family's future concerns under your own concerns for me. Why?" he asked her, seeing the blush on her face. He took a small step closer to her as they continued walking.

"You don't know a thing about my family." Cynder stated. "One family not liking us won't bother us at all. Besides, they're jerks anyway, and we don't associate with jerks." Cynder nodded matter-of-factly. "And it was my dad that told me where your parents live anyway. We've been to their place a couple of times I think."

"Still... is this worth a family rivalry? They'll be after you for this, I think." Spirit sounded a bit fearful of that, honestly fearful. This was a new family, perhaps a new set of friends. Why should they have to take any flak or issues from being associated with a pony they didn't even really know yet?

"Dear Celestia, will you stop worrying about it?!" Cynder said, abandoning her hushed tone. "Stallion up and just let me help you. I swear, you're starting to sound like my mom."

"Well... excuse me if I'm just looking out for the ponies who so graciously extended a hoof of... well... amnesty to me. But fine..." he quickly shot back, although not in a hostile way. Spirit continued to the station, staying close to Cynder. Many ponies watched as the duo, apparently surrounded by a squad of guards, continued on. Along the way, one of the guards broke off the formation and dissapeared in the buildings.
They arrived at the West Canterlot guard HQ, deep within the nobility section of the city, something that slightly unnerved Spirit. He knew this section particularly well. The Ardors were only four blocks away from this place, and his house was only one. The mere fact that he was so close to his home gave him visible goosebumps. The guard had to, as was customary with each pony taken into custody for one reason or another, a profile on Spirit. He complied with every request and told them every piece of information they needed.

Cynder sat impatiently in the station while Spirit was getting profiled. She straightened out her shirt a bit then got a brilliant idea. "And of course you'll be willing to lend us an escort to the Gemstone estate, won't you?" She said to the guards. "If nothing else than to make sure there aren't any more of these misunderstandings."

"Gladly Ma'am. We'd be happy to bring you to the-..." the guard started, a content smile on his face as the guard hopefully explained one possible outcome of this situation. However, his superior silenced him. He had his own words to speak on the subject.
"The gemstone estate is currently vacated, save for a few servants, the likes of whom I imagine you would not wish to speak to. Mister Sapphire and Mistress Ruby are currently away in Gryphonia on missionary work." he told the pair, stoic and unemotional as ever.

Cynder looked at the guard suspiciously. "That's fine. Spirit's a resident." She said. "Kind of funny though. How would you know where they were or weren't?"

"They are traveling along with the ambassadors to Gryphonia. Considering that you are part of Mr Emerald's group, how would you not know, Ms Ardor?" he replied calmly.

"Maybe because gemstone distributors don't go around doing missionary work with gryphonian ambassadors. Cynder said sharply. "Either way, you didn't answer my question. The Gemstones aren't the only family around here with pull you know."
