Aurora is startled awake while laying in a bed about some noises around him. He starts mumbling "Where am I and how did I get here?" A pony in a nurse uniform walks up to him very timidly and tells him in a shaky voice "you were smashed out of the sky by the Ursa Major and then whoever the other pony was caused a great beam of light to erupt from his two front hooves and blasted it into the sky then opens up some kind of hole and the Ursa Major disappeared into it.

As far as I know your friend healed you more serious injuries and carried you back to ponyville on his back." Aurora then sits up with a start and says "Where is Galaxy?!" The nurse replies very gently " your friend spent almost all his energy saving you and this town. It also didn't help that he carried you all the way here." Aurora then yelled "WHERE IS GALAXY!!!" The nurse seems to be a little shaken up from the thunderous boom of Aurora's voice. The nurse then timidly says "I will take you to him he might still be sleeping."

The nurse pony opens the door for Aurora and Aurora goes in the direction the nurse pointed him in and he rushes into the room and sees Galaxy slowly coming too but he still seems he is partially asleep. Aurora puts one of his hooves on Galaxy and Galaxy slowly opens his eyes to see who it is. Then he slowly sits up and seeing who it is and sees that it's Aurora. Galaxy begins to cry tears of joy knowing that his friend is alive and ok.

Galaxy says "I thought you were dead..." Aurora replies "It will take more then that to get me it also might of helped that I surrounded myself in a quick force field but still that's probably what partially cushioned my fall." Galaxy then gives him a smirk and slowly gets out of bed himself. As all the nurse ponies watch him get up. Just then a purple pony which both Galaxy and Aurora identified as a unicorn comes running up to them and says "Hello my name is Twighlight Sparkle and I'm really glad the both of you are finally awake because a lot of ponies want to meet you and ask questions. I also wanted to add that Princess Celestia will be by shortly to see you two to check up on how you are doing and Galaxy she wants to talk to you in private at some point today."

Galaxy and Aurora were then led out the hospital doors and to their great surprise there was a mass of ponies waiting there to see them and like Twighlight said ask them many questions. Everypony was looking at Galaxy and Aurora and then bowing to them. This astonished both Galaxy and Aurora because they knew ponies only did this for royalty. Then a group of young ponies ran up to them and asked for a picture with them. Galaxy and Aurora had their pictures taken with the young ponies and then one of them walks up to Galaxy and says "hello my name is Applebloom and I was wondering if you and your friend would like to come over to our place for a massive welcome and thank you dinner?" Galaxy then looks down at the little pony and replies " Sure that sounds like a lot of fun.

Oh yah by the way here's a little present for you." Galaxy then puts his two front hooves close together and concentrates deeply on one of the stars in space and draws a small bit of power from it and then condenses it into a small ball of really bright light. He then looks it over and then hands it to Applebloom and says "Applebloom this is a ball of pure light use it only for an emergency because it is a one time use and it has a light so powerful that it will scare away even some of the meanest of monsters." Galaxy then hands it to Applebloom who looks up at Galaxy in awe and says "Thank you so much Mr.Galaxy this means a lot to me!"

Applebloom goes running into the crowd with her friends with shear excitement. Galaxy and Aurora continue walking down the path with Twighlight Sparkle and she stops once more in front of a group of ponies and she introduces them as her friends and she says "girls I would like you to meet both Galaxy and the Aurora Borealllis." One of the ponies flew straight up to Galaxy and said "how fast can you fly because I saw you fly really fast last night?" Galaxy was actually thinking about this and replies to the pony with a Rainbow mane "I can usually break the sound barrier fairly quickly but at some points I can break the light barrier as well."

The pony that Galaxy just spoke to blankly stares at him in astonishment. Then slowly flys back to her spot with her friends. Twighlight introduces her as "that is one of the most talented flyers in all of equestria RainbowDash." RainbowDash slightly blushes at this remark and the next pony to come up is one with what seems to be a cowboy hat and says "I heard from my little sister that your coming over for the big dinner tonight is that right?" Galaxy then gives him a nod and says "Is your sister by any chance named Applebloom?" The pony replies " yes she is and she showed me what you gave her a little while ago.
I thought it was mighty generous of you to do that for her.

Any friend of my sister is a friend of mine." Twighlight says " That's AppleJack and he is the most dependable pony in all of ponyville." AppleJack then tips her hat and falls back in with her group of friends. The next pony to step up was one with a very fancy dress on and asks in sort of a shaky voice " hello I'm a fashionista around here and I was sort of wondering if you guys want to try on some of my designer cloths later on?" To Galaxy she looked really nervous on what his answer would be and Galaxy replied " I would love to try on some of your clothes later on and maybe even for that big dinner tonight if you can manage it.?" The pony freezes in place with a look of shock on her face and says " I will get started on your clothes right away." Twighlight whispers to Galaxy "her name is Rarity and she loves designing clothes for all of us but she has never really personally tailored for royalty before.

She has done it maybe once or twice but with you around she feels like that now her career as a fashionista is finally taking a really big step forward." Then a really timid pony comes up to them and seems to talk in a low whisper " Hi ummm ummm (whimpers a little) can I ask how old you are?" This struck both Galaxy and Aurora dumb because they couldn't use their real age from the other world so Galaxy is thinking in his head how old would he be in pony years. Then replies "I would be 5124 years old and Aurora is a year younger then me." Twighlight stares at the two ponies like she was just hit by a brick and stutters "Your older then even Princess Celestia and I just can't believe you two look as good as you do at this age." Twighlight then nods toward the nervous pony and says "Her name is Fluttershy and she is probably the most kind pony you will ever find." Then all of a sudden a pink pony comes jumping out of no where and starts jumping around Aurora saying "I like him he looks cute and be seems funny too."

Aurora then looks at Galaxy with a surprised face and Galaxy just shrugs and says telepathically "I think she likes you man?" Aurora replies "It seems so but I have never had a marefriend before?" Galaxy then gives him a sly look " I think she looks pretty good why don't you have a go with her if you catch my meaning? (Winks at Aurora who roles his eyes) Twighlight with a sigh says "and this is Pinkie Pie who spreads joy and laughter throughout all of ponyville." Pinkie Pie then nudges her head under one of Aurora's arms and to Galaxy's slight surprise Aurora let Pinkie Pie stay that way." Galaxy then asks Twighlight a question "why are ponies bowing to me and Aurora?" Twighlight replies "That is a question for Princess Celestia to answer herself." To Galaxy this seemed like an acceptable answer. Then there was a bright flash and Princess Celestia appears and quickly bows to both Galaxy and Aurora.

This caught them both by surprise never expecting the ruler of equestria to how to them. She then says "It is a great honor to finally meet you two in person and as you might of guessed my name is Princess Celestia and I have some questions for the both of you." Galaxy says "ask away Princess." Princess Celestia asks "Which one of you vanquished the Ursa Major?" Galaxy takes a step forward and says " I did but I couldn't have done it alone." Celestia then asks " you have great powers both of you but now that your here what do you plan to do with them?" Galaxy replies "We will use our powers to defend equestria and make life better for all of ponykind." Celestia seemed very pleased by this answer and motions for Galaxy to follow her to talk a little more in private.

She then lowers her voice and asks Galaxy " What you did to vanquish that Ursa Major was beyond even my comprehension and well I sort of liked it when you showed great power but still was able to control it."Celestia then continues a little more sheepishly this time " Galaxy I want you to teach me how you control such immense power even under pressure as you were that night.

I also have seem to have taken a liking to you on a more personal level if you know what I mean.?" Celestia blushes at the last sentence and Galaxy being as calm cool and collective as he could be says "Princess I would love to show you all that I know on controlling immense power. On the note you like me how about I sit next to you at the big dinner at AppleJack's tonight?" Celestia's head then snaps back up with a face full of awe and joy and says " I thank you very much for taking time teaching me on how to control power and I would really enjoy (flirts with Galaxy for a second) sitting with you at dinner tonight." Celestia then starts scrapping the ground nervously and says "Galaxy would you ummm mind coming back to Canterlot with me because I get awe fully lonely and really have no pony to talk too on a personal level. Maybe even you can sleep with me tonight as well...?"

Galaxy couldn't tell who was blushing harder him or the Princess. The princess then adds "I have terrible nightmares at night and I would love for you to sleep with me please?" Galaxy says "Your asking me pretty much to be your mare friend? Is that correct?" Celestia looks away in some embarrassment and nods. Galaxy then walks up to her and puts a hove around her neck and says "I would love to be your marefriend." At this Celestia looks into Galaxy's eyes and says a silent "I love you." Then walks back to the other ponies and Aurora as well.

Galaxy walks over as well and Twighlight walks up to him and says "you can stay with me and my friends until the dinner is ready is that ok with you?" Galaxy looks at Celestia briefly and gives him a nod and Galaxy says "That sounds like lots of fun can Princess Celestia join us as well?" Celestia hearing this canters over to Galaxy to listen to Twilights response. Twighlight astonished at this request says "Of course Princess Celestia can join us if she wants to.?" Celestia looks at Galaxy and gives him a slight smile and tells Twighlight "I would love to spend sometime with you and your friends until dinner."

Then walks over to Galaxy and gives him a kiss on the cheek and Twighlight's mouth just drops and starts saying in a mumbling tone to both Galaxy and Celestia " What... are you two... in love?" Galaxy replies with a remark "you could say that." At this Twilight faints on the spot but before she feel to the ground Galaxy reached out with telekinesis and stops the pony from hitting the ground. Galaxy then teleports the pony into her house and onto her bed. At this Galaxy wanders over to Celestia and says "well it looks like we will be spending some time together. Where would you like to go Princess?" Aurora has already decided to go with Pinkie Pie to equestria knows where.

Aurora and Pinkie Pie are already walking down the street where Pinkie Pie is going to show Aurora sugar cube corner. Galaxy then looks back at Celestia who says " I wouldn't mind going to sugar cube corner either. Is that ok with you?" Galaxy says " That sounds like a great idea to me; let's get going then." As Celestia and Galaxy enter sugar cube corner there was a slight gasp from the owners seeing both Celestia and Galaxy enter their store. Pinkie Pie was there as well making a cupcake for Aurora who just seemed to notice Galaxy's new marefriend and sends him a telepathic message saying "Dude you are the luckiest pony alive." Galaxy replies "It seems that you aren't that bad off yourself either." Aurora gives a slight smirk and turns his attention back towards Pinkie Pie.

As Celestia and Galaxy take their seats at a table next to each other Pinkie Pie immediately came over to them with a brown paper bag and told Galaxy and Celestia that she made these special cupcakes and she wanted them to try them out later after the big dinner. Then one of the owners came over and asked what they wanted and Galaxy asked for a Apple tart while Celestia ordered a colorfully decorated cupcake. As Galaxy and Celestia were waiting Galaxy had the sudden urge to put his wing around Celestia and before he knew it he already did. Celestia then nuzzles close to him and rests her head on his neck and says "I won't have anymore nightmares with you around anymore."

Galaxy starts rocking back and forth and then quickly hailed the owner and asked for the pastries to go because before he knew Celestia had fallen asleep on his neck and was snoring peacefully. At this the owners cleared the cafe of everypony including Aurora and Pinkie Pie who had left to find their own personal area. Then Galaxy slowly starts stroking Celestia's glittering rainbow mane and he sits there waiting for her to wake up. At most all he could do is let her rest until the dinner later that day and with that he falls asleep too with his head resting above Celestia's.
