Waking up in Equestria

"Oh please, the duct tape wasn't that bad! Was it...?" Twilight asks nervously, pressing her forehooves together. Harry simply sat there scowling as he felt his reddened arms.

"Twilight, you practically waxed my entire body with duct tape! Everything burns! Even an area that isn't suppose to burn!" Harry says as he stands up, wincing a bit. His toffee coat was missing in places, patches of red skin showing through. Most of the damage was on his arms and legs however.

"Sorry...it was something I wanted to try..." Twilight says hanging her head. Harry kneels down and pats her head affectionately, giving a small smile.

"I'm not mad Twilight. Besides, I can cover up with long sleeved clothes." Harry says. Twilight just looks at him.

"Harry, it's the middle of the summer. Today is the hottest day in Equestria history! You'd have a heat stroke within five minutes. And I don't want that to happen to my coltfriend." Twilight says nuzzling him a bit.

"Hottest day of the year, eh?" Harry asks. He could smell the salt water already.

"Yes, why?" Twilight asks, raising an eyebrow.

"What would you say to a day at the beach?" Harry asks her. Twilight puts a hoof to her chin, thinking it over.

"Well...I suppose we cou- How are you already changed?" Twilight asks suddenly. Harry stood before her clad in a surfing shirt and tropical camo swimming shorts. A large smile was plastered on his face.

"Don't question it. Get the others; we're going to the beach! Quick! To the Harry-Mobile!"

Nothing.

"I'm sorry, but was something suppose to happen there?" Twilight asks, slightly confused.

"Yeah, a cheesy transition with upbeat music." Harry says hanging his head in defeat. "Come on, let's just go..."

A couple of hours later at the beach.

A pink blur splashed into the water with the force of a Battleship round. The plume of water rose, then cascaded down onto the ponies down below, soaking them to the bone.

"PINKIE!" roars Rainbow Dash as she tries to shake herself of the water. Pinkie Pie bobs to the surface, spits out some water, and grins widely with a small giggle.

"Oops! Sorry Dashie! Try not to be on the splash-zone next time!" Pinkie says, diving back into the abyss. Rainbow grumbles darkly and returns to her towel. Seeing it was still soaked, she cursed some more and picked it up with her teeth, taking flight to dry it off. Harry chuckled a bit and returned to his book, smiling a bit as he read with Twilight next to him, also reading. Rarity and Fluttershy were sunbathing on their back, adorning sunglasses, while Spike was building a rather impressive sandcastle. A pink fluff of hair poked from the water, slowly approaching the shore. Spike hummed happily as he packed in the sand to build up the sandcastle.

A sharp whistle was heard.

Spike looked about, looking for the source of the whistle. Shrugging, he returned to the sandcastle.

A shadow loomed behind him.

"Hey Spike."

Spike turned and shaded his eyes with his hand. "Pinkie? What is it?"

"I'm Godzilla." Pinkie says simply.

"Wha- PINKIE NO!" Spike cries out. Pinkie had leapt into the air, briefly hovered over the sandcastle, then fell full force onto it. Spike was sent tumbling away in the mini-sandstorm the crazy mare created. Once the sand settled, Pinkie was rolling around and laughing like a mad mare. Spike huffed a bit and pouted, crossing his arms.

"Easy you two. Don't need anypony to be hurt now." Twilight says, looking up from the book. By this time, Rainbow had returned and laid out her towel. She stepped on it and turned around a couple times, before plopping down and returning to her nap once more.

"Aww, that was adorable." Harry says with a chuckle. Twilight smiles and looks at him.

"Harry, do you know why I tied you up in duct tape?" she asks.

"I guess because I lost the Siege?" he suggests. Twilight simply chuckles and her horn flares up, enveloping the umbrella above them. The multi-colored parasol landed on its' side, covering the mare and stallion.

"Because I know you kissed Rainbow! Harry, how could you do such a thing?" Twilight asks, her voice grave.

"Look, she kissed me, trying to throw me off and win the fight. I didn't do anything, okay? I was simply trying to win and she cheated." Harry says, pointing at her. "And that drink you gave her was an unfair advantage. She really packed a punch as a human." Harry says scowling a bit. Twilight sighs and looks away.

"Alright, I believe you. But if I hear that anything like that happens again, there will be issues. Got it?" Twilight asks. Harry grumbles in response and Twilight runs a hoof up his exposed back, making his boney wings go rigid. "I said, got it?" she asks, purring in his ear.

"Y-Yes!" Harry squeaks, his cheeks ablaze.

"Good! Now, when are you going to get your wings fixed? It's been a while since the metal went in, hasn't it?" Twilight asks.

"Yeah, yeah. The flight surfaces should be ready by tomorrow. I'll go to the blacksmiths' tomorrow and pick them up."

"Good! No offense, but you look kind of, well...off...without your full wings." Twilight says looking to the exposed bones and ligaments that the flight surfaces were usually bolted to.

"Yeah, I kinda miss the full effect that happens when I flare them." Harry says, flexing the bones a bit. The umbrella returned to its' upright position, covering them from the sun again.

"HEY GUYS! LOOK WHAT I FOUND!" Pinkie shrieks. All her friends look out to the ocean and gawk in surprise and shock at what was sitting in the water.

An Iowa-Class Battleship sat there. With Pinkie on the highest point of the conning tower. Wearing an admirals' hat and grinning madly.

"PINKIE! WHERE DID YOU GET THAT!?" Harry screams. Pinkies' response came in the form of the two forward turrets aiming at the shallow waters, the three barrels on each turret staring the shore down with black holes.

"INCOMING!" Pinkie shrieks. The forward turrets roared to life, sending six 16'' shells into the shallows, resulting in a massive tidal wave that crashed onto the shore. The others had only a second to scream before they were engulfed by the water.

And Pinkie was just rolling around on the deck, having fallen from the conning tower, laughing her ass off.

Once Pinkie Pie was sent home to Sugar Cube Corner in a straight jacket, the others had said their good-byes and returned to their own homes. Harry and Twilight entered Golden Oaks Library, with Harry carrying a shell shocked Spike. The baby dragon shuddered and stuttered as Harry took him upstairs and laid him in his bed. Returning downstairs, Harry went to his room, got a change of clothes and entered the bathroom for a shower. Once he was finished, he emerged and went into the kitchen, where Twilight was sitting at the table.

"We need to talk." she says simply. Harry gulps and sits opposite of his marefriend, who was staring at him from over her hooves.

"I've been thinking, and I think it was that mega-splash Pinkie had done that caused this..." Twilight says. Harry begins to tense up, waiting for the break-up bomb.

"And I came to the conclusion..." she went on.

"Oh fuck, here it comes. Well, it's good to be back in Singlesville! Population: Me!"

"That we should allow others into our relationship." Twilight finishes. Harry stares at her, an eyebrow raised in confusion.

"You mean, like, let others date us? At the same time while we're dating?" Harry asks. Twilight nods happily.

"Yup! That way, we can fool around with others while staying with each other!" Twilight says with eagerness in her voice.

Harry leans forward a bit, the look of confusion still present.

"So you're saying I could bang your friends and you'd be completely cool with that?" Harry asks. Twilight grins and bites her lip.

"You wouldn't be the only one fooling around with her friends." Twilight says with a giggle. Harry's ears shoot up and his cheeks erupt into a blaze.

"W-well...I guess it couldn't hurt to try this out..." Harry says, scratching the back of his head.

"Good! Because there's more news!" Twilight says with a wide grin.

"And that is...?" Harry asks warily.

"I'm Pregnant."
