Let me try (Patreon)

Iron Shield quickly went through the Chrystal halls. Trying to keep his hoof clacking on the ground quite. If only he could make it to his room, pack his bags, and get to front door without being spotted.

“IRON SHIELD!”

Darn it.

Iron looks around his shoulder to find the one pony he didn’t wish to speak to. His father.

“Just were do you think your going. You can not just storm out of a room while we are discussing war. Much less yell at your sister.” Shining Armor said through great annoyance.

Iron huffed, “One, I didn’t storm out. And two, I didn’t yell at Flurry either. I was only making my point.”

”Iron your good at this stuff. Your talent is even tactic solving. We need you in there.“

”Then give me the final say huh? If I know what I’m talking about sooo much then why is nothing I say ever used. Or acted on.” Iron snapped.

“Your mother and Flurry get the final say.” Shining said adverting his gaze.

“Yeah, mostly FLURRY. Who’s knows very little about what to do! You know so much more yet you say nothing!”

Iron walked up to his father. “Does it not bother you to see us losing! We’re just holding those changlings back. There not like what they used to be! We need better everything right now!“

Iron shook his head and sighed when his father made no response. He took a step forward and waited, but then kept going. Only to be stopped by Shining.

“I know what you want to do, I won’t allow it.“ Shining said getting mad.

“Well it will work! If you don’t want to USE my help here, I will do it on the battle line! At least Commander Lash would listen to me!” Iron said with pleas in his eyes.

“No, I will not allow my son to leave for war. It’s too dangerous. You could be killed.“ His father spoke, with a much soften voice at the end.

”Then what I am to do. Just sit around when Flurry is Queen. What’s my role dad. Please, let me TRY.”

“Go to room and STAY there. We will discuss this later…”

Iron Shield did his best not to cry, he felt so useless to his Citizens. He wanted to try.
