Dash stared at Aladdin, jaw currently sitting somewhere on the ground the ground. “You’re the king!?” she asked as they moved down the Agrabarian streets.

In the presence of their ruler everyone eagerly waved, cheered, bowed or sent smiles Aladdin’s way. It was plainly obvious that he was extremely important.

Aladdin raised an eyebrow in confusion. “Pretty sure I said that I was.”

“Yup.”

“He does have regal flair about him.”

“Yes it was fairly obvious,” Twilight added.

“I knew it! I knew it!”

“Ah didn't really think that much about it tah be honest.”

“Even you, Shy?” Dash whimpered.

“He was dressed like he was important, so I just assumed….”

“Oh come on! How was I supposed to know. All I saw was a dude with a stupid hat waving two swords around. I mean, Spike can do that much! I thought kings just sat on their thrones and barked orders.”

Spike looked at her, unsure whether to be offended or not, “Umm... ow?”

Aladdin glared at her. “I like this hat; it’s cool,” he muttered. “Also, I’m not that kind of king. I enjoy fighting alongside my men knowing that I can keep my citizens safe with my own weapons.”

“Always an admirable quality in a king. As well as in a husband,” a smooth, melodiously accented voice rang out.

Everyone, including Aladdin, turned to see three forms; one tall women who was absolutely stunning. She had long silky black hair, full lips and figure that could put professional models to shame. Next to her stood two small boys wearing red and blue vests and the same poofy white pants. Said boys immediately ran up and glomped their father.”

Aladdin leaned down and hugged his children. “Ali, Hamid! What’s up? Been good?”

 The two boys looked up and Twilight realized that they were twins, identical children. In fact, they looked almost exactly like Aladdin if he were 30 years younger.

The one wearing the blue vest spoke first. “Nope!”

The one wearing red mimicked his brother action. “I stole an apple!” he exclaimed, almost like it was an achievement.

“They sure are… honest children,” AJ whispered to Rarity.

“Well, normally that’s a good thing. But they’re in trouble now.”

“Hahaaa, well done!”  Aladdin laughed and ruffled his kids hair causing Rarity to flinch in shock. “Were you caught?”

*SMACK*

That was the sound of Rarity ruining her make-up by slapping her palm to her forehead; mumbling something about terrible parenting. AJ and Dash both nearly fell out in laughter.

*Whap*

The slap fest wasn't over, because the strikingly gorgeous women from before gently slapped Aladdin upside his fez covered head, causing him to grunt in pain.

“What have I told you; stop teaching our kids to steal. And you two!” she said, grabbing the two kids that tried to escape. “What have I told you about listening to your father!?”

“Not to…” they mumbled simultaneously.

“That’s right, now run back to the palace while I welcome our guests.”

The kids turned and ran back the way they came. No one noticed when one twin casually snatched a fruit from a nearby stand. Everyone was too focused on what was happening to their Sultan.

Shia nervously glanced at all the sets of eyes looking their way. It was bad enough that she was both a stranger and a foreigner, but now she was next to the two most important people in the kingdom. Both of whom were making a scene right in the middle of the bazaar, the busiest, and most populated place in the kingdom. Needless to say, it was a bit too much for the shy girl. “Umm, shouldn't we get to the palace now… please?” she mumbled almost inaudibly to the girl who was right next to her.

“Yeah, yeah,. In a sec, this is getting guuud,” said Pinkie, munching on some popcorn. Next to her stood Dash doing the same thing. Where they got it from was anyones guess. But one thing that someone could make a guess at, was whether or not they invented popped corn for the people of Agrabah that day.

Twilight wasn't paying attention to the lovers spat, instead looking around and taking in the culture of this world. She eagerly moving around inspecting the stands full of food and jewelry. Meanwhile, Spike found a weapons dealer and began inspecting his wares. Rarity eagerly took in the scene before her with her full attention. Her inner gossip laughed at how juicy this was. In the middle, AJ watched with almost detached interest, only watching because there was nothing else quite as interesting to look at. Agrabah didn't have many apples in stock that day.

“I told Genie before I left,” Aladdin answered nervously.

“I haven't even seen the Genie lately.”

“Well I saw h--”

“Regardless,” she interrupted, “you should have told me personally. I worry when you and some of the guards just up and disappear. I almost feel like you just want to get away from me sometimes,” she said, her face softening to a mix of concern and sadness.

The nearby guards began to look slightly ashamed, mostly for allowing themselves to go along with their Sultan’s whims.

“I sorry. I didn't mean to worry you, I just wanted to solve this problem as fast as possible. Plus, I would never want to be away from you,” he said, looking her in the eye.

She met his gaze, their eyes locked onto one anothers. “I know, but I still would like to know that you are safe.”

Aladdin took his wife into a tight embrace. “Hey you know me, I’m always fine.”

“I know,” she said lovingly, returning the hug.

Almost everyone around them, including Rarity and Pinkie, coo’d and awe’d at the loving sight. Dash stuck her tongue out in disgust, a few pieces of popcorn falling out during the action. “Do they always do this? It’s like a friggin chick flick.”

“But… Rainbow, you are a girl,” Shy asked as she too smiled and let out a soft ‘aww’.

“Yeah, but I still don’t like it.”

A small peddler with a large turban and black-grey beard appeared next to the two girls, causing them both to jump. His mouth was spread in a creepy smile that unnerved the girls.. “Well you better get used to it, they do this every week or so.”

“Seriously?”

He nodded. “Indeed, though it’s usually something different; but as it is, it always ends the same way.”

“Wonderful…” she groaned.

After prying the two lovebirds apart and shooing away the spectators, Dash had finally got the group back on track to the castle. The only problem, was that they had to track down Twilight who had already covered an extensive part of the Bazaar and bought numerous items.

“So, Aladdin, are you going to introduce me to your guests?” the women asked sweetly.

“Oh, right,” Aladdin began, “Jasmine, these are keyblade masters in training. They’ve come to visit our world to meet the Genie, and they’ve also agreed to help us with our problem. Keyblade wielders, this is my loving wife. Jasmine.”

“Woah hold on! You didnt even--”

“Of course we’ll help you, Right, Dash?”

Dash grumbled in annoyance but noded anyway. She really thought that she was going to get a vacation.

Aladdin rolled his eyes and continued. “Anyway, would you all like to give us your names?”

“My name is Twilight Sparkle.”

“Spike D'Draco.”

“Sparkle.” Twilight corrected.

“D'Draco sounds cooler.”

Twilight turned to him slightly miffed. “That’s the name she gave you. It would make me happy if you didn't use it anymore.”

“Yeah I know, but you gotta admit. The name’s pretty bad ass.”

“Be that as it may I would appreciate that you return to the use of your maiden name.”

While Spike and Twilight continued to debate Rarity gently grabbed the rulers’ attention. “Terribly sorry. Their just having a little sibling spat at the moment. let me continue. I am Rarity Belle, it’s a pleasure.”

“I’m Pinkamena, but you can call me Pinkie Pie. That’s Rainbow, but she doesn't like being called that, that’s Jackie, and over here hiding behind the pink hair is shy little Shia!” Pinkie finished, introducing everyone else.

Afterwards, Twilight nudged Spike back to the forefront. “Hello my name is Spike Sparkle. Nice to meet you,” he said as oppositely of enthusiastically as possible.

Jasmine clearly saw the discomfort in the boys eyes. “ It’s alright I think those are very nice names. I like them,” Jasmine answered.

“That’s not my real name you know!” Dash tried to point out.

“Rachelle, please, the queen is talking.” Rarity chided.

“So, are you the ones who crashed in the desert? I could see it from the palace balcony.”

“Oh, Oh, I know this one! Pick me! Pick me!” Pinkie bounced, arm stretched into the air.

Jasmine giggled and pointed at the happy girl.

“Okay! Well we were just coming back from this awesome world with the talking cards and mean queen who was like ‘Off with her head!’” she said, deepening her voice in a bad impersonation. “When I realized that I remembered that today was my birthday! So I waited and waited and waited and waited until I started to think that my friends forgot my birthday. But I was like nahhh and I kept waiting and waiting for like a whole hour after we left and I realized that I couldn't take it anymore and I freaked out on my friends. They told me that they were headed here to meet Genie so I could have a party with him for my birthday present! I was sooooooo excited! So I turned off the autopilot and ZOOMED forward full speed, buuuuuuuut I couldn't pull up in time and I crashed into the desert,” she finished sheepishly.

Jasmine began giggling long before Pinkie finished her story. By the time, she finished the group had already made it back to the palace. “Well, that was certainly an interesting story.”

“I could understand your excitement anyway.” Aladdin nodded.

Dash jumped in front of Aladdin. “Oh no, that is NOT an excuse. This like, the 6th time that she’s crashed the ship! Twice on the same world!”

Both Aladdin and Jasmine turned with blank expressions toward at the girl who at least had the decency to blush under Dash’s true accusation. “I… uh… get carried away sometimes.”

AJ passed her and stepped into the palace. Scoffing as she passed her, “Sure… sometimes.”

Once in the castle, Aladdin turned and welcomed them to the large palace. After some searching around the girls all found comfortable spots while Aladdin left with Pinkie to go see if he could find the Genie, and Jasmine went to check on the boys.

Twilight, like the predictable bookworm she was, instantly gravitated toward the library in hopes of finding some information on the world’s history; and silently promising herself that she would ask about the old masters the next chance she got.

Shia dragged a reluctant AJ to go see the elephants sheep camels and other animals.  Dash had already began challenging the guards to one on one duels, no wings of course, and Rarity instantly made friends with the castle stylists and fabric weavers. Spike went and disappeared on his own. Everyone settled into their own corners, eagerly waiting for the arrival of the party master and the birthday girl.

 Dash had just defeated the 10th guard when Pinkie burst through the door to the palace training room. “Guys! Genie isn't here right now so we have to send out a search party!”

“Pinkie, I’m the only one here right now. The others are scattered around the castle.” Dash quickly dodged a surprise attack from a guard that she was fighting. “Too slow, Jack!”

“My name is Jinad!”

 “Right now it’s 'Jack' until you can hit me!”

  The now irritated guard charged at her, but stumbled when Pinkie popped up between him and his target with her back to him. “Dashie, you can play with your little friend later! This is important; we need to find Genie!”

“Okay, where is he?”

“I don’t know, that’s the point, we need to go find him!”

Dash calmly put a hand to calm on her shoulder to calm her down. “Pinks, how are we supposed to find a near omnipotent magical genie. He could be anywhere in this world. Even Aladdin said that Genie comes and goes. I think that it’s best that we just wait for him.” Dash moved past the now whimpering girl and faced the guard, keyblade pointed at the collection of guards. “Alright, which Jack is gonna fight me next!?”

“Hold on, what about me?”

Dash waved him off with her keyblade. “Eh, I’m bored with you now.”

Pinkie, on the other hand, stormed away, determined to search this town for her target. Birthdays only lasted one day after all, and she was going to have her’s today even if it killed somebody.
