The Equestrian Maelstrom

7 Years Later...

Naruto was laying down on a beach chair with an umbrella shading him from the sun. Today was the 'event' that Kami and Shinigami told him about. Today was the day Nightmare Moon would return. Of course, Naruto had prepared for this upcoming return.

Naruto managed to get three recruits into the barracks, but not the kind you would expect.

The first recruit was, ironically, Rainbow Dash. She was more Wonderbolt material, and she even admitted that her dream was to become a Wonderbolt, but she wanted to do more than just Weather Control. She wore blue armor with a cloud on the front of the chestplate, a shoulder plate over her left shoulder with a similar cloud marker. She wore blue wrist gauntlets with the left one having her cutie mark on it. She also had leather covering her lower half and wore a red skirt. She had knee armor plating and had sandals on. Strapped behind her waist, she had two twin swords and had a bow with a quiver full of arrows. Her speed, agility, and reaction time was quicker. She could move fast enough to draw an arrow and fire in 3 seconds. Her dual-wielding skills were good, she focused on a speed blitz fighting style by charging head first and get the first few blows before your enemy (picture it like Kirito when he is dual-wielding).

The second recruit was Applejack, the reasoning behind it was the protect Sweet Apple Acres and her family after an event where Timberwolves came too close to the farm land. She wore a green apron with a dark red dress underneath the green apron. She wore leather wrist gauntlets with black fingerless gloves. She had armor on her hips, the right waist armor plating bearing her own cutie mark. She had knee armor plating and wore boots. On her back was a warhammer that had symbols on apples on it. She muscles have also improved as well as her beauty.

The third recruit was, surprising to everyone, Rarity. The reasoning was because that she was almost raped during a Canterlot trip by some thugs, had the Night Guard not arrived, she may have lost her virginity. So Naruto tried her in the ways of the Night Guards. She wore skin-tight black outfit that covered her entire body and she wore some other cloth that was as strong was steel yet as light as a feather. The cloth was dark purple. She wore a dark teal jacket that had her cutie mark on the right front shoulder, a dark purple cape that to her waist (not that very long), wore dark purple cloth on her waist with her cutie mark on the right cloth, and wore dark purple with dark teal outlines with a diamond on the top of the boot and another diamond on the front boots. She carried a rapier on her left side and was taught to use it and carried a sharp teal crystal shard.

He also met with some of their friends.

Rainbow introduced Naruto to Fluttershy, who was both a caretaker of animals and a druid of the Everfree Forest. Fluttershy wore a green top that cover her arms and chest. To keep it tight, she had some green vines wrapped around those areas and even around her neck. She had an equally green shorts with a light green cloth belt around her waist. She had green knee covers with vines wrapped around there and wore no shoes or sandals. She had long pink hair, a yellow coat, a pair of wings, and nice green eyes that held warmth and kindness. She loved Naruto because he was a nine tailed fox and the foxes that stayed with her loved being in Naruto's presence. Fluttershy did say that there were two that were giving her some trouble. There was a crimson fur with white tip fox and a orange fur with black tip fox and both could fit the palms of his hands. So he took them off her hands and named the crimson fox "Chi" and the orange fox "Shi" which meant 'Blood' and 'Death' in Naruto's native language, both liked their names.

But time has past and they were now the size of large dogs, but were more trained to work alongside Naruto in battle or more (like a certain dog clan). Naruto made a translator seal for both, allowing the two to talk. Turns out that both Chi and Shi were girls and they seem to like Naruto a lot as Naruto treated them more than master and pet, more like friends and partners. Naruto also put a summoning seal on them to call them into the battlefield, when they are needed and could reverse summon them if he needs to.

Rainbow also introduce Naruto to Pinkamena Diane Pie, or Pinkie Pie. So was a Bard for Sugar Cube Corner and was a master party planner. Pinkie wore a brown, light brown, and yellow dress, she had a pink cloth belt around her waist, wore a blue skirt and light blue (almost white) skin-tight cloth pants on, and leather boots. She wore fingerless light brown gloves. She had a light brown guitar to do songs and it had her cutie mark on it. On her back, she had a shotgun filled with cake batter that would trap and freeze people. She also had her 'Party' Cannon, which she uses to make parties almost instantly. She was very random but Naruto loved being around her, especially around pranking people with Rainbow Dash.

Applejack introduced him to the Apple Family (both her real family and her cousins, aunts, and uncles). Rarity introduced Naruto to Sweetie Belle, and Rainbow introduce Naruto to Scootaloo. Naruto met with the locals and everyone enjoyed Naruto and welcomed him with open arms. Naruto did send letters to his friends in Canterlot and even visit there sometimes for a day or two before returning to Ponyville.

Naruto finally learned how to communicate to Kurame via seal and telepathy. And thanks to Kami and Shinigami, Kurame could leave the seal. She would appear as a female Nine Tailed Fox. She wore a red shirt, black cargo pants, and ninja sandals. She wore a black bikini and black panties. Her breast size (do note that Naruto was told by Kurame herself) was G.

However, a lot did change over the years. Two years ago, Naruto with Rainbow Dash as well as Applejack began to start dating. The dating lasted for 9 months before Rainbow Dash and Applejack became Naruto's mates with Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy following in on dates. And about three months ago, Pinkie joined the herd while Fluttershy was still dating. And about a week ago, Fluttershy joined the herd.

But today was special, not for the fact that it was the Summer Sun Celebration, but the fact that his best friend and her assistant from Canterlot were coming to oversee the preparations of the Summer Sun Celebration... IN PONYVILLE!

Naruto was relaxing with a pair of sunglasses when he noticed a carriage approaching. Naruto smirked and chuckled before disappearing in a swirl of flames, which didn't effect the chair and the umbrella. Naruto appeared in the shadows of a building, it was time to see how much Twilight and Spike have matured during his time away.

When the carriage landed, the door opened, revealing a beautiful girl. She wore dark blue robes with gold color outline with some even darker blue cloth on it with pink outlines. Her cutie mark was on her chest, just above her breasts and another cutie mark where a cloth was right between her knees. She wore silver armor that covered her arms that reached to the back of her hands with a little that went between her four fingers. She had skin-tight white cloth for pants and had brown leather boots. She was holding a wooden staff that had a crystal ball at the end of it that had magical sparks inside it. On her waist was a large bag that had on her right side and inside was a green book. She had really matured very much, looking very beautiful. This was no doubt Twilight Sparkle that Naruto knew.

Then Naruto sees a dragon boy come out of the carriage. He wore a purple hoodie, green shirt, and blue pants. He had purple scales with green spines and green eyes. He wore no shoes. And this must be Spike, he has grown since he was a baby.

"Thank you, sirs." Twilight said to the Pegasi guards, who nodded and left.

Naruto felt a familiar presence approach and looked, seeing Pinkie Pie heading her way to them. Twilight tried to say hello but gasped and flew away. Twilight and Spike were confused and that is when they heard chuckling. They looked, see a pair of blue slit eyes looking at them.

"Who are you?" Twilight said as her magic in her right ignited.

"Is that anyway to treat an old friend... Sparkly?" Naruto said as he stepped out of the shadows. Naruto had matured as well, he was taller and he had more muscles and more intelligent and he loved to call people he knows by their nicknames that he had the habit of calling them.

"Naruto!" Twilight said with joy and ran over to her best friend and hugged him. When they finish hugging, Twilight smiled "I got your letters and everything. And I never stopped following the path and way to taught me."

Naruto smiled "So I have heard from Shiny, Caddy, and Sunshine. From what I heard, you have matured into a beautiful mare with a passion to show friendship. I even heard you said goodbye to your friends and family before you came here."

Spike said "So your Naruto?" Naruto nodded "I heard that you were the one that showed Twilight the true meaning of friendship. I thank you for that. If you hadn't, I hate to wonder what Twilight would have been."

"Alrighty there then, Spike." Naruto said before he turned "Come now, I'm your guide for the day. Our first destination is Sweet Apple Acres, no?" Spike and Twilight nodded "Let's go then. Jackie is, no doubt, working hard with the rest of her family."

The two nodded, thought they did wonder who 'Jackie' was.

Armor/Outfits are on Adventuring Is Magic, besides Spike's.
