A True, True Friend

Twilight emerged from the principal’s office battered but victorious. She knew half-paying attention to Shining Armor’s Krav Maga lessons would pay off someday. Despite not getting as much information as she had hoped, she still had enough to know that she attended this school. If not, then at least it was somebody who looked a lot like her.

The day slowly faded, and Twilight could not return home in her condition. She would never hear the end of her mother’s bantering and nagging. She struggled walking down the hall but the worst was yet to come upon her, stairs. She questioned why the principal’s office had to be on the second floor, but with every last ounce of her energy, Twilight started down the stairs at a good pace. Each step became even more difficult than the last, Twilight was getting weaker.

“Alright Twilight, already halfway there,” she coaxed herself as she gripped the side rail for dear life. She took a deep breath, bit her lip and began the rest of the torture against the adversary before her. She could no longer ignore her pain, the effect of Sunset Shimmer’s punches became overwhelming. Twilight’s vision faded and she blacked out, the stairs had won. She was falling headfirst down twelve stairs, but Twilight had regained some consciousness mid-air.

How could a genius such as I, Twilight Sparkle, perish in such a forlorn fashion? The navy haired girl asked herself. She closed her eyes one last time awaiting the inevitable. Gravity took the girl and pulled her and the weight of her despair down toward the ground, but Twilight hit something that was not the concrete floor. Her head had impacted something soft, she did not even feel the blunt force she was expecting. tired and weary she began to pass out once more.

“Twilight! Oh dear, are you ok?” asked a worried voice as Twilight blacked out due to exhaustion. Her body rolled off the mass she had landed on with a blow to the head on the cold concrete.

Twilight awoke to a warmth enveloping her and gazed upon a bright, sunny and cloudless sky above her head. “Odd,” she spoke to herself “How long have I been out!? It was only night a minute ago… Was I not at school earlier!? I have to-”

She ceased speaking to herself and stood there in deep thought about her current situation. She walked around but noticed no humans were around. “ The agency has completely taken me prisoner and shipped me off to an island! I must make contact wi-” twilight shouted as she reached for her phone. A purple hoof held her phone in her hand. Twilight shrieked with enough volume and pitch that her phone’s screen cracked. She looked down at herself, feeling less weight on her chest. Twilight panicked and ran in circles trying to get a feeling of what she had become.

Cmon genius, keep your cool. Twilight thought to herself. Finally calming down, she realized that right in front of her was a dirt path, inlaid with crude bricks. On one side of this path, in the distance, she saw rolling hills that contoured the horizon of which lead to one imposing mountain sporting a city on the side of its peek. Much closer to her was the destination, the library, of the other path.Thoroughly confused, Twilight did what anybody would do. She walked around the village to look for anybody that could help her determine where the the hell she was. She approached the first house to her right and knocked on the door.

What came out of the house had confused Twilight even more than her current body did. Before her stood a yellow mare with an orange mane on it’s head.

“Oh good morning, Twilight.” gleefully said the mare.

Twilight gave the pony a confused look with her eyes wide open and her jaw gaping. “You can talk?“ inquired Twilight as she jumped back in amazement. The mare gave Twilight a confused look.

“Uhm yes. . . everypony can. Are you sick,Twilight? You should head back to the library. Spike must be-” Twilight ran off before the mare could finish.

How could the pony have possibly known Twilight’s name? Its impossible, ponies could not talk, and if they did, Twilight would have revealed to the world her animal translator to the world. Regardless of the situation at hand, Twilight had to find this library the pony had talked about. Twilight came across another mare while running through the town in a frenzy. This time it was a light purple colored one. Twilight couldn’t help but think this was ridiculous. Everyone knew that equines came in drab browns or white or dull colors. She approached the mare.

“Excuse me,” Twilight called out, “Do you know where the library is?”

The two stood in front of each other equally perplexed. The mare has a peculiar growth on it’s head and Twilight was intrigued. Twilight gave a quick frontal scan of the pony with her eyes and noticed two outcroppings on the side of it. The mare’s mouth moved as if speaking english, but now words came out. Twilight felt as if her soul had been yanked out of her body. The initial adrenaline of my Kumite and stairs debacle must be reaching it’s limit. She fell to the floor and her vision faded.

=====================================================================

“Twilight are you alright?” a voice called out. Twilight awoke in a dim room. There was a sweet fragrance in the air, and she could see the silhouettes of mannequins around her.

“I’m alright thank you,” replied Twilight, “I’m just a bit beat up.” Twilight looked over to the door and Twilight recognized the girl standing against the door frame, it was Rarity.

“You’ve been out for quite some time. Lucky for you I was carrying a large pile of fabrics,” said Rarity with an annoyed tone.” If I hadn’t broken your fall, you would have been even more injured than you are now.”

“Thanks; well I’m sorry if you were hurt. I gotta go.” Twilight thanked Rarity and tried to get up. The pain gripped her right hip, she cringed and sat back down onto the top of the bed. Rarity just shook her head.

“Hold it right there,” demanded Rarity sternly, “You should call your parents, it is quite late. In the meantime, I will get you some new clothes, you obviously cannot go home in ripped attire.” Rarity closed the door. Twilight looked at her phone and wondered. She had been to a world where ponies talked. Could she have had a vision of another world or were these the side effects of the chemicals she had been working with at home?

Rarity walked in with a pea coat, a pair of jeggings and a tanktop.She laid them on the bed and spoke.

"So have you called your parents? Will they be coming to pick you up?"

Twilight bit her lip. "Uh, well... No, because..." She glanced at her bruises, sighing again. "My mom would freak out if she saw me like... this."

"I see; maybe you should stay the night then, if it's that bad," Rarity suggested.

“I’ll be right outside, you just get ready,” stated Rarity, ”Are your parents coming to pick you up?” Twilight just stayed silent, as she could not think of anything to say. Rarity understood that Twilight was uncomfortable about going home with bruises.

“Ok then, Twilight. I‘ll let you stay tonight. Just call your parents to let them know you are safe…” Rarity said worriedly as she walked the couch in her room and to a couch. There was not much left Twilight could do, the cards had been played so that she should stay over.

Alright, genius. Let’s just stay the night, Twilight thought to herself. There is no alternate course of action. You got nowhere to go and you can’t go home otherwise you will never hear the end of it from mom. Twilight was taken by the generosity of the girl before her.

She smiled, looked at her phone and flipped through her contacts to look for her mother. Yeah, you can reason with mother that you’re lodging at a close acquaintance’s abode. On top of that you will not have to contend with mother’s persistent hounding, she assured herself. With a couple strokes of the finger Twilight initiated a call and the phone rang.

“Hello? Um. . . Hey, mom. I’m going to be staying over at a friend’s house for tonight because she insisted. I’m calling because I just wanted to-” Twilight was interrupted by the happy and dumbfounded voice of her mother.

“A friend, really?” her mom inquired, “Honey she has a friend!”

Twilight was embarrassed, Rarity could hear her mother’s delight over the phone. Twilight said her goodnights to her parents and ended the awkward call. She turned to Rarity who was sitting on the couch before. Rarity giggled and out of the reflection in her phone Twilight caught herself blushing. Why is all this blood rushing to my face? It’s been a long time, thought Twilight to herself, I haven’t been this red since that incident with Berry Punch...

“Why is it that you are offering me your sleeping quarters for the evening? I am a complete stranger to you. . .” stated Twilight.

“First off, you had this on you,” Rarity stated as she pulled out Twilight’s handgun, “ Secondly, you remind me of an old friend. I also could not sit idly by as an injured girl walked around the campus alone at night. On top of that I was so rude to you. I did not answer your questions.”

That moment, Twilight remembered the picture she saw from during the fight in the principal’s office. That friend Rarity had referred to may be the same girl as the picture. Twilight bit her lip and proceeded to ask with caution.

“So, this friend must have been good to you for you to offer me this.” Twilight said slowly. Rarity in turn smiled at the floor. She looked up at Twilight and nodded.

“She was. I loved her the moment we all met her. She was such a gem,” Rarity replied as she walked to sit next to Twilight, “She seemingly came out of nowhere, but everyone gravitated to her. She made friends rather quickly for being a new girl. She brought back together the friendships me and four other girls had shared, and figured out the wedge that kept the five of us hating each other.”

“Her name was Twilight Sparkle, am I correct?” asked Twilight. Rarity nodded while trying to hold back the sadness on her face. Twilight was amazed, the multiverse did exist. Now the only problem was getting to the other universe. Twilight asked rarity how the girl returned to her world, then Rarity broke down.

Twilight was distraught. Of all the things she knew to do, she did not know how to go about being friendly and cheering people up. Besides Berry, her brother and her sister-in-law Cadence, Twilight never sought out friendship. What do I do, what do I do? Twilight asked herself, Don’t mess this up. Berry left you because you didn’t know how to help her cope. It should not be such a difficult task, correct?

“Are you alright? I will help you see her again.” stated Twilight

Rarity looked up at her confused, and stated sobbingly , “Really? I’m tired, darling, so explanations will have to wait until the morning.” The room was dark but, Twilight could barely make it out, Rarity was smiling.

Great she’s smiling! I guess I did the right thing afterall! Easy as- Twilight’s thought was interrupted. She was now laying on her back and she felt strange. She felt warm as Rarity lay ontop of her holding their faces close with her warm hands. Twilight closed her eyes as she enjoyed Rarity’s soft peach flavored lips, but only for a second as Rarity quickly pulled away and stared her in the eyes.

“Uhm, please do forgive me. That was very unlady-like of me… Uhm. . . Well I’ll leave you alone for now,” mumbled Rarity out of embarrassment “I’ll see you in the morning.” Rarity left the room swiftly and slammed the door behind her in one fell swoop. Twilight was left astounded.

The taste of another woman’s lips. Oh how I have longed for such an immeasurable sense of pleasure. Even the genius I am falls victim to humanity’s oldest nature, love. I feel so weird… How do I do this… Twilight inquired herself as she maneuvered herself below the blankets. Twilight reached for and grabbed her phone. She looked and brought it to her ear.

“First phase has been conquered,” Twilight stated to her phone, “All the information has been gathered, and will be commencing second phase. I have run into an obstacle though… Are these feelings being planted into me? Is she working for the agency? I do not believe so, central command. For now I’ll just have to release the pressures of suppressing nature.Ut universum sit genus”

Twilight put down her phone and maneuvered herself into a more comfortable position protected from the cold under Rarity’s blanket. It smelled as wonderful as Rarity did, and Twilight could not bare it. She shut her eyes, bit her lip and gave into her needs. Twilight had to be as quiet as she could, so that Rarity should not waken to her session. She ran her hands down the contours of her body and slowly, but surely, her hands crept beneath her clothes. Her hands caressed her body down the shape of her hips and between her thighs. One hand stayed while the other drifted north to her breast. Clothes and underwear flew out from under the blankets as Twilight let out a small moan but quickly resisted anymore. As time passed by she only got louder and yet she still held back as to be quiet and upon surpassing her limits, she let out one ecstatic, uncontrollable moan.

The following day, Twilight awoke to Rarity and her own smell accompanied by smell of cooking. Twilight was in far less pain since she had come to Rarity’s humble abode. She got up, put on her underwear and dressed in the attire brought to her by Rarity herself. She walked through a white hall vaulted with arches and climbed down a flight of stairs. Standing right before her in underwear and apron was Rarity.

“Good morning darling, you must be so very tired and hungry from your performance last night.” stated Rarity as she turned around to face Twilight who was blushing all over, “You should be a little quieter next time.” while winking at Twilight.
