BAM! Just like that.

Chapter 5

Okay, now that's just weird.

They arrived back in ponyville later. It was late. Probably past midnight. They did not know how long they had been in the portal, but they could only assume it was forever. Soar wondered to himself if the portal only went between that universe and his own, but decided that now was not the time to explore. No, now he had a very scared Rainbow Dash at his side. She was curled up on a cloud, and appeared to be crying. She was obviously having a difficult time comprehending what had just happened. Spectrum felt bad for her and flew down next to her. The two sat next to each other for minutes, before finally, Spectrum spoke.

"That must have been rough on you...," he said, awkwardly.
"...and it wasn't on you?" Rainbow Dash responded, not looking to Soar, "I'm not even sure if that was...real..."
"I'm not sure either," Spectrum said, looking back at the portal. Another long silence. "Look, I know that place was scary, but I think that we can cope with what just happened together, don't you think?" He put his hoof around her.
"...yea...maybe we can...," she finally responded, looking at him, "hey...you saved me back there...I was just freaking out but you acted like a pro and got us out of...wherever we were." Spectrum didn't respond. "thanks...it was pretty cool."
"Are you gonna be alright?" Spectrum asked, "you look pretty shook up."
"Yea, i'll be fine...," she said, not with a lot of confidence, "I just need to get some sleep."
"Well I can walk you back to your house if you'd like," Spectrum said.
"Yea, sounds cool."
The two flew back to Rainbow Dash's house. They made some jokes on the way, and giggled, and just talked. Spectrum noticed that Rainbow Dash was taking a weird path back to her house, as if she wanted them to fly around and talk some more, but eventually found their way to her house. They stood outside for a few minutes just talking and almost making out, but not quite. Eventually, she invited him to stay the night with her, so he went inside and BAM! Just like that, the story got continued in the Stupendous Stories of Spectrum Soar.
