The Adventures of Firework and Science Explosions: The Rise to Fame

(Author's notes): Hey everypony I'm about to start being extremely busy. Football sucks up all my time and the life out of me. Some days I'll be too tired to write so just bare with me please. As a side note: Me and editor will be rewriting chapter one soon because I feel like that's where I seem to lose most people. Don't worry It won't change the story it'll just make chapter one a better hook. As always comment, thumbs up and enjoy. :)

Firework and Vinyl decided to catch a late train and just relax a while before they went home. Vinyl just wanted to be close to Firework and to try and forget about the stress of the past few days. So couldn't believe Boulder, that even after all he did he still tried to cause her more pain. She tried not to let Firework see her distraught expression but like always he noticed.

"Vinyl I can see your face, what's wrong?" Firework asked as Vinyl tried to hide her expression.

"N-Nothing Firework. I promise babe." There it was again. She called him babe and she didn't know why. Since Boulder she never used nicknames on stallions. It made her feel too close and vulnerable.

"You know I could really get used to you callin' me babe." Firework said with a wink and he nuzzled her head.

"oh sh-" She stopped herself from her usual come back. "It feels right." She said with a loving smile.

"I love you Vinyl."

"I love you too Firework." Vinyl hid her face in his chest. She was holding back her tears. She couldn't get the memories of Boulder to leave her mind. She was having a breakdown and couldn't let Firework see her like this. She needed Octavia.

"H-Hey Firework can we leave now?" She asked with pleading eyes.

"Of course we can. I'm ready when you are baby." Firework thanked Celestia he had a dark blue mane because he started blushing right after he finished his sentence. Vinyl on the other hand was starting to turn noticeably red. This made him and Vinyl laugh.

They grabbed their bags and headed out the door. Firework noticed a note on the door. The note read: "Hey Firework I paid to have all the equipment shipped back to Ponyville. You and Vinyl have fun but come home soon to hang out with me and Lightning. I left early. I couldn't stand to be away from her any longer. I'm sure you understand. Fuse."

"Well that was nice of Fuse!" Vinyl said with a smile.

"Yeah it was. I hope Lightning's ok. It's not like her to miss something like this..." Firework was starting to look concerned but shook it off when Vinyl grabbed his hoof.

"I'm sure she's fine. I bet she just got busy." Vinyl was trying to be optimistic.

"Yeah you're probably right. Well let's go and check up on them." Firework grabbed his and Vinyl's bag and they headed for the train station.

The ride home took about an hour and Vinyl fell asleep next to Firework about half way there. When they arrived she was still asleep so Firework called a carriage, put their luggage in the back and carried Vinyl onto the carriage. The pony pulling the carriage was a red earth pony with a wheel as his cutie mark. He saw Firework carrying Vinyl and whispered to him that the ride would be free. Firework tried to protest but the stallion simply put his hoof up to his mouth as the signal to be quiet for Vinyl. Firework sighed and climbed in next to the love of his life.

The ride across Ponyville took about as long as the train ride. The stallion driving took less crowded streets to avoid noise so Vinyl could sleep. Firework didn't mind. He was enjoying the peace and time alone with his thoughts. Half way to his house Vinyl curled up close to him and Firework couldn't help but smile. He was so happy but there it was again. That nagging feeling that something bad was going to happen. He was right the first time and it was about Boulder. He was nervous about what it could mean now...

When they arrived at Firework's house Firework grabbed the luggage and placed it on the front porch. He walked up to the carriage to get Vinyl but then springed out of the carriage and tackled Firework and kissed him. The driver blushed, he knew he should get going. The driver waved goodbye to Firework and chuckled as he drove away. Vinyl looked confused at first but decided to go back to loving on Firework.

"V-Vin-... we sho-... insi-..." Firework was trying to talk between kisses. He needed to learn how to that soon, she had left him with a great need for that talent.

"Shh.. Let's go inside so I can kiss you some more." Vinyl said with a wink. She had forgotten all about her breakdown and decided Firework was more important.

"Alright whatever you say." Firework laughed. They threw their bags by the couch and ran upstairs.

After a few hours Vinyl and Firework decided they should go see how Fuse and Lightning were doing. They walked downstairs and out the door. As they neared Fuse's house they noticed no lights were on and it was around 8. They walked up to the door and knocked but nopony answered. So they decided to go inside. They looked around but nopony was home. Then Firework found the note from Icestorm. His face turned bright blue and he almost collapsed on the floor. Vinyl ran into the room to steady him and saw he was holding a note. She read it and she too couldn't believe what she had just read. Firework knew where Fuse had gone and told Vinyl he had to go help Fuse and that she needed to go home and stay there.

"Oh no you don't! You're not going anywhere without me!" Vinyl snapped.

"Vinyl I don't have time for this. Go home. I won't risk you getting hurt." Firework was trying to sound as forceful as possible.

"Sucks for you cause guess what. I'm going. Lightning and Fuse are my friends too and I love you so we are doing this together. Got it?" Vinyl stared him right in the eyes.

"Ugh! Fine. You know you're so stubborn. Please don't get hurt trying to help me though." Firework couldn't handle the thought of seeing Vinyl hurt.

"And you don't get hurt by trying to be a hero." Vinyl replied.

"Then it's a deal. Let's go save Lightning!" Firework said. And with that they left to start the journey of a lifetime.
