Twilight's Castle: 9:47am (Saturday)

Twilight looked back and forth at the titanic beasts and at the entrance to her crystallized abode. She looked as if she was piecing together a solution as to how they could talk in solitude. All the while the entire village was staring clearly nervous of the two reptilians.

"So how do you suppose we get those two in here?" Twilight asked with a perplexed look on her face. In response, Kobayashi simply nodded at Tohru and Kanna and whispered for them to look like ponies like herself rather than humans so that they wouldn't startle the equestrian quadrupeds anymore than they already have.

With this, Tohru and Kanna both formed magic circles in unison and their bodies began to give off a fiery-gold glow as their forms swiftly changed from large to small. They decided to become pegasi so that they wouldn't lose their ability to fly. Much like what she looked like in her human form, Tohru still had her dragon tail, and her horns protruding from either side of her head. Her mane closely resembled her blonde pigtails and their fiery tips. Even so, her coat had a pale cream color to it. Along with all of this came a blank flank.

As Kanna proceeded her transformation, she retained her key dragon features much like Tohru did herself. Her pony form was short and she was as small as a philly. Though she didn't mind the small size, she particularly didn't like being this close to the ground. Her four horns stuck out from both sides of her head much like when in her human form, and her thin dragon tail with a club-like Pom Pom gracefully fell to the ground. Her mane looked almost exactly as her hair from her human shape and her coat was as pale as snow. As she slowly tried to get used to her new horse-like form, her tail swished energetically from side to side. Spike simply stared at Kanna with awestruck eyes and a new found level of respect for the young dragon. Twilight simply gaped at the two former dragons, and was very psyched indeed.

"Since when do dragons do magic!?" Twilight interrogated with eagerness for an answer.

"What do you mean? They've always done magic." Tohru suggested as she gave Twilight a look of confusion.

Kanna simply stared with her usual vacant expression.

"Not here, they haven't. I've even been able to get up close and personal with a small amount of them, and from the looks of it, they can't do magic." Twilight tried to choose her words carefully. Bringing up this dragon's wrath (or any dragon for that matter) was something that she didn't want to do.

"Is that so? Well then I'd like to meet them and see for myself because we dragons are a proud race." Tohru retorted as she puffed out her chest.

Twilight simply stared with a glint of agitation. Kobayashi broke the mare's concentration by patting her on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, she's always like that. It can be hard to listen to sometimes because she does it more often than not." Kobayashi smirked as she addressed Twilight. Twilight just sighed and comically drooped her head in amusement as she turned away from them and opened the doors to her castle with an entertained look on her face.

"Ah, home sweet home. I'd love to stay and chat, but Twilight woke me up super early today, so I'm taking a nap." Spike yawned as he waved his talons up and down. He made his way to where he normally slept. He plopped down on his bed and drifted off to sleep. The only problem was that he snores.

Twilight held a hoof up to her mouth and giggled at Spike's behavior. The alicorn then gestured for the three new 'ponies' to come sit with her at her map of Equestria. She took a seat in her usual spot and gently placed her front hooves on the map. Kobayashi, Tohru, and Kanna alike stared at the map in awe. Twilight gave a miniature smile and broke the silence by asking a question.

"So where in Equestria are you guys from? I've never seen anyone like you before, and I'm pretty sure I would've noticed you three by now." Twilight politely asked.

"Not from here." Kanna softly spoke, but just loud enough for Twilight and the others to hear.

"So then where? Another country, or- oh! Another continent?" Twilight enthusiastically interrogated. Her eyes were practically filled with stars by now.

"Well, I'm from the human world, and they're from a fantasy world, but now they live with me in my home world." Kobayashi explained with her dead fish eyes glaring at Twilight. The alicorn was slightly startled to find Kobayashi's emotionless eyes right on hers, but she found herself to still be alive so she ended up being fine with it. Even so, it could take her a few days to get used to it.

At Twilight's dawning realization that they were not from her world at all, she figured that her heart could implode on her so she decided to collect herself and continue the conversation without seeming too frisky.

"Oh, you're from the human world? I've been there a few times myself, you see, I have this mirror that can take me there. I normally let Sunset Shimmer use it whenever she wants to come talk to me, but that's a story for another time. Anyway, so how did yo-"

"There's a way to get back!?" Kobayashi suddenly jumped out of her chair and hungrily looked at the velvet alicorn for an answer.

"Well sure but, I'm sorry to say that it recently broke down. I've been meaning to fix it, but I'm a very busy pony." Twilight sighed in shame for leaving it broken for two whole weeks by now as she averted her eyes from everypony in the room.

"Oh. I see, okay then. Well, can we help you fix it?" Kobayashi sat back down as she calmed her eagerness to go home.

"Huh? Oh no, I'm sorry you can't. It's something wrong with the magic. Though I have no idea how to get it up and running again. There is that comet that's coming in a few days, so that could be the reason..." Twilight trailed off as Kobayashi and the others slowly pieced together why they had come to this world. A comet was the very reason of this effect.

"Of course it's a comet's fault. What is this, some kind of anime? Please don't tell me that I'm going to start switching bodies with someone who died three years ago." Kobayashi boredly stated. Tohru tilted her head in confusion, but Kanna nodded at her reference.

"Hm? Did you say something?" Twilight asked as she turned her attention back to the trio.

"No, nevermind that. It was nothing." Kobayashi waved it off with a sway of her hoof.

"So how long do you guys plan on staying here?" Twilight curiosly queried.

"Well, thanks to Tohru's magical weaknesses, probably about a week." Kobayashi replied as she rested both of her front hooves on the holographic map.

"Heyyyyy, you can't blame it on me, we already said that it was because of the comet." Tohru whined. She was clearly unhappy about Kobayashi's blame.

"That must be the reason you three are here." Twilight responded with a thoughtful expression as she held up a hoof to her chin.

"Kobayashi." Kanna called for Kobayashi's attention. Kobayashi looked down and asked Kanna what she wanted.

"Hungry." Kanna stared up at Kobayashi with her deep ocean-blue eyes.

"Ah, I'll ask Ms. Twilight if there are any restaurants anywhere Okay?" Kobayashi shot a warm smile down to Kanna as she hugged her softly. Tohru stared with a slight pit of jealousy in her sunset eyes.

"Uh, Ms. Twilight?"Kobayashi began.

"Oh, you can just call me Twilight, what is it you need?" Twilight responded.

"Are there any restaurants nearby?" Kobayashi asked.

"Why yes there is, in fact, I can show you the way. Now that you mention it, I'm kinda hungry too. And I haven't ate breakfast yet, so it works." Twilight cheerfully answered.

"I can cook for you and Kanna, Kobayashi! I can cook for you as well Ms.Twilight." Tohru reluctantly added the last part.

"You can just call me Twilight you know." Twilight spoke politely so that Tohru wouldn't get angry.

"Ah, Tohru's my 'maid' so she's kinda used to addressing people like that." Kobayashi gave an explanation.

"Mm." Kanna hummed silently in agreement.

Tohru asked Twilight where the kitchen was and made her way to the cooking area. As she walked down the long corridors, Tohru realized how colossal the crystal castle really was.

Twilight's Kitchen: 9:58 am

Tohru finally reached the kitchen and thought about what she could make that a pony would eat. She knew that they were herbivores, so all she had to do was choose a dish that didn't required meat for it. Tohru also figured that even if she did want to make a dish with meat, she couldn't because chances were that she'd have to go kill something because they wouldn't sell animal flesh considering that ponies don't eat meat. She really didn't feel like doing that at the moment. Even so, she still brainstormed ways that she could sneak her tail meat into Kobayashi's meal. Kobayashi of course, found it every time no matter how hard Tohru tried to hide it in her entrees that she prepared for her master.

Tohru finally came to the conclusion that she would make Zaru Soba (dipping noodles basically). She decided the make curry for Kobayashi though, and added some of her tail meat instead of steak or beef (not that she'd be able to anyway).

Tohru hummed to herself as she cooked for the four of them. She decided that she would also make a small bowl of miso soup for Spike when he woke up from his nap.

Twilight's Map of Equestria: 10:15am

"So I've been meaning to ask, what are those marks on your thighs? I've noticed that almost every pony in this town has them except for some of the younger ones. Is it like something that shows that you've matured or something?" Kobayashi asked as she stared at Twilight waiting for an answer.

"Actually, I'm glad you asked. Those are called Cutie Marks. They represent a pony's special talent, and a pony gets one by figuring out what their special talent is. Every pony has one, some just take longer than others to find theirs. Considering that you're not from this world, it makes sense as to why you three wouldn't have one. If you really wanted one, I could help you find your special talent." Twilight spelled out for Kobayashi.

"No I don't really want one, but I'll see if Kanna wants one. So how about it Kanna? Would you like to find your 'Cutie Mark?'" Kobayashi gently asked the 'filly.' Twilight couldn't help but smile warmly at the sight of Kobayashi's motherly approach to Kanna.

"Mm." Kanna nodded in reply and walked over to Twilight hesitantly because this would the first time in a long time that she would be going somewhere with someone other than Tohru, Kobayashi, or even Saikawa for that matter.

"Aww, you're so cute Kanna. Do you want to eat before we go? I remembered that you said you were hungry." Twilight cooed at the adorable young 'filly.'

"Mm." Kanna responded as she sat back down at the map and waited with Kobayashi and Twilight for the food that Tohru was just finishing up.

Twilight's Kitchen: 10:30 am

"Once again, another victory for Tohru~" Tohru praised herself. She seemed particularly proud thinking that pouring a lot more sauce on her tail meat will hide it the best. She picked up the large platter of dipping noodles and Spike's miso soup and placed them on her wings. She held the most valuable meal in her mouth: Kobayashi's curry.

Twilight's Map of Equestria: 10:32 am

"Are you guys hungry, because I've got three entrees here!" Tohru called to the group. She had been balancing two plates on both wings and delicately, but firmly held the curry plate in her mouth.

At the scent of food Spike practically floated out of his bed and into his seat at the map. He wafted up the scent of the dipping noodles and the curry causing his mouth to water.

"Mmmmmm, smells absolutely delicious!" Spike hungrily declared as he reached for the curry with one of his talons. Tohru gently smacked his claws and slid the curry over to Kobayashi, and the large bowl of miso soup over to him. He winced and quietly accepted his soup.

"Even better!" He announced after getting a good sniff at the miso.

Kobayashi had to figure out how to use eating utensils without hands to hold them for her.

"Ugh, how do you even-" Kobayashi tried using both of her hooves to pick up the spoon that rested on the side of her plate. No matter how hard she tried, she simply couldn't manage to do so.

Eventually, Tohru acknowledged Kobayashi's struggle and offered to feed her. Kobayashi reluctantly accepted Tohru's offer much to Tohru's pleasure. The dragon maid practically trotted over to Kobayashi and grabbed the spoon on its handle with her teeth. She seemed overly happy to be doing so.

Spike leaned over to Twilight and whispered, "Why is Tohru acting like that?" with much curiousity.

"She must have a thing for Kobayashi or something like that. If you ask me, I think it's pretty cute to be honest." Twilight chuckled as she whispered back to Spike.

As Kobayashi continued to stare at the chunks in her curry, she grew more suspicious of it. The more she concentrated on it, the more clear to her it was that the chunks were indeed Tohru's tail meat. Just as Tohru was about to put some of her tail meat in Kobayashi's mouth, Kobayashi raised her hoof to stop the spoon. She wasn't angry, just disappointed.

"Tohru I know this is your tail meat. You can't sneak it past me. You've tried it so many times by now that I hardly have to actually check anymore." Kobayashi stated almost cruelly.

"Hmph" Tohru pouted and puffed up her cheeks.

Twilight and Spike looked at each other in confusion and tilted their heads. Then Spike asked a question.

"Tail meat? What's that?" Spike asked curiously. Kobayashi sighed and began to explain.

"It Tohru's tail. She chops it off and tries to feed it to me. It's really annoying and unnecessary." Kobayashi boredly explained.

The two of them gasped in shock.

"Is Tohru okay with doing that? I mean, doesn't that hurt?" Twilight asked with concern for the maid.

"It doesn't hurt, besides, even if it did, it would be worth it for Kobayashi because I lo-"

"It grows back she's fine" Kobayashi interjected as she put a hoof over Tohru's mouth.

Tohru licked Kobayashi's hoof much to Kobayashi's displeasure. She pulled her hoof away so fast it broke the sound barrier. She wiped her hoof off on the floor and gave Tohru an angry look.

"TOHRU! That's gross!" Kobayashi sighed.

"What did she do?" Twilight asked as she tilted her head.

"Never mind. I'm not hungry anymore." Kobayashi stated as Tohru looked down and pouted.

Twilight and Spike greatly enjoyed their meals along with Kanna.

"Wow, this is really good!" Twilight and Spike shouted in unison.

With that, Kobayashi decided to push aside all of Tohru's tail meat, and ate everything else on the plate (with Tohru's help).

(30 minutes later)

"Alright Kanna, are you ready to go?" Twilight asked with enthusiasm.

"Yes." Kanna simply replied with her usual bored tone of voice, though her excitement was clear in her large eyes.

"Off we go then! I know this great group of fillies who could help you find your Cutie Mark. They call themselves the 'Cutie Mark Crusaders..." Twilight trailed off as her and Kanna exited the castle with Spike following close behind them.

Tohru decided to leave the castle as well, and Kobayashi had chose to tag along with Tohru. Though, Kobayashi didn't know exactly where Tohru was going, Tohru did. She wanted to visit the dragon land to mock the supposedly weaker dragons. She used a smirk as a small brag just by thinking about it. She even wanted to laugh at Spike when she first met him, but she made the smart, and respectful choice not to for both her, and Kobayashi's sake.

"So Tohru, where are going?" Kobayashi queried as she walked alongside Tohru through the entrance way of Twilight's castle.

"To the dragon land of course." Tohru giggled. Even though she was just going there to test the dragons' temper, she was also the slightest bit curious as to why dragons in this world couldn't use magic.

"Why is that?" Kobayashi asked suspiciously. She had a feeling that Tohru was going to cause trouble, and for that reason, she had chose to tag along with Tohru.

"O-oh, no reason. I just wanted to see what they're like in this world." Tohru was only partly lying. She truly was curious about the dragons here, and she longed to know more about them. Her method of doing that though of course, was the dangerous and even going as far as to callling it idiotic.

Well, I guess it would make sense for Tohru to want to know about different...dragons? Or maybe dragons from outside her world would be the right way to put it. I'm still coming with her just to make sure that she stays out of trouble. Kobayashi thought to herself.

Tohru reverted to her true form and lowered her long, scaly neck so that Kobayashi could climb on. When Kobayashi finally got into a comfortable position, she gave Tohru the 'okay' to fly. Tohru's take off was a bit sloppy and rushed, but when they were finally flying smoothly in the air, Tohru's much experience with flight had made itself visible. Wind slowly whistled in their ears, and when Tohru flew through clouds, their soft embrace was easily cut with the knife that was Tohru's wings. The two of them enjoyed the moments such as theses where they could easily get lost in it. Despite the rush of it all, the pair was as calm as ever.

Ponyville (with Twilight, Kanna and Spike): 11:12am (Saturday)

"So Kanna, what are your skills? Considering that your a dragon that can perform magic, I think there are many skills that you have." Twilight complimented. She simply adored Kanna. She was so cute and well-behaved. Twilight also took note of how much her and Fluttershy have in common due to both of them being the strong and silent type.

Ohh, I should introduce Kanna to Fluttershy. I'm sure that they would get along well. Twilight pondered and she beamed with delight.

"Electricity." Kanna replied with her soft and relaxed voice. Twilight simply cooed and fawned over the young 'filly.' Kanna gave her the same bored look that she casually wore.

"Ohhh, can you show us?" Spike interjected before Twilight could answer with her own response. Spike carried a spark of inspiration within his eyes. He really idolized Kanna due to her magical power. He adored her abilities, he cared about what she could do, and wanted to see more of it. He loved her for that. He loved her.

Kanna easily nodded as a response.

She sat on her hind legs and rubbed her front hooves together lightly. She then closed her eyes so that she could concentrate on her electricity. Kanna began making circular motions with her front hooves as a tiny ball of pure energy began to form in her clutches. It had an icy blue glow and surged with electric power as it slowly grew into an even larger ball of energy that was now greatly capable of destruction. Both Twilight and Spike could only gape with their mouths wide open in awe. Finding no other place to throw her now condemned orb, she released it into the sky where it exploded with electricity and now unstable energy flying everywhere in the sky. A large variety of colors emitted from the eruption. It's exotic beauty could be spotted all the way from Canterlot. All Kanna could do was watch her creation entertain the ponies in the area. Luckily, there were no pegasi in the sheer area of the explosion. They were all busy creating rain clouds for the next day that was to come.

Everypony in town looked for the source of the detonation and found a small pegasus pony with electricity still surging through her hooves. They all began to clap with their hooves and cheered for Kanna. Pinkie Pie just so happened to be in the crowd and decided to fire off her party cannon right in font of the little 'filly's' face which didn't manage to get a reaction out of Kanna. Eventually the crowd of civilians disbanded and everypony went on with the rest of their day but instead of their average happiness, they were filled with new energy and felt all warm inside. They all felt inspired by Kanna's feat.

"Wow! That was so awesome! Twilight didja see, didja see!? That explosion was all like, BA-BOOM! And POW! And ZAP! It was totally AMAZING!" The pink pony exclaimed as she bounced up and down in excitement.

"Yes Pinkie, me and Spike were right here the whole time. We saw Kanna create it and it was-"

"AMAZING!" Spike interrupted with much enthusiasm. After receiving a slightly disappointed look from Twilight, Spike blushed in embarrassment. Pinkie simply chuckled and introduced herself to Kanna.

"HiI'mPinkiePiewhat'syourname, youmustbenewaroundhereit'sreallynicetomeetyou!" The pink earth pony spoke with much speed and Kanna almost didn't understand it but she understood just enough to give Pinkie a response.

"I'm Kanna Kobayashi. Nice to meet you let's be friends." Kanna introduced herself to Pinkie Pie as well.

"Awwww, she's so cute!" Pinkie swooned over Kanna.

"Isn't she though?" Twilight joined in.

"Yeahhhhh" Spike said almost love struck.

Twilight took note of that and nudged Spike's arm playfully, "Ohhh looks like someone's got a new crush," Twilight whispered in his ear jokingly.

"N-No I do don't!" Spike defended as he crossed his arms. He could feel his cheeks burning up as he averted Twilight's eyes.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anypony." Twilight winked with a smirk on her face.

Rainbow Dash had noticed the after effects of the explosion beginning to drift in the direction of her house and decided to check out what caused the eruption. As she sped her way to the area of where the aftermath seemed to be blowing in from, she noticed her friends and decided to land. When the cyan pegasus arrived on the scene, she noticed Twilight, Spike, Pinkie Pie, and then there was her. It was somepony completely new. She looked to be around Scootaloo's age (though she wasn't).

"Oh, hi Rainbow Dash!" Pinkie greeted the blue pegasus with an overly excited wave of her hoof.

"Hey Pinkie Pie, hey Twilight, hey Spike." Rainbow Dash replied.

"Hey Rainbow Dash." The dragon and the alicorn replied in unison.

"So who's the new kid?" Rainbow asked as she tilted her head and gestured a hoof to Kanna.

"That's Kanna Kobayashi, though she said that it's okay to just call her Kanna." Twilight answered casually.

"Heh, cool. So what happened with that explosion? I mean, who caused it?" Rainbow asked in a very casual yet curious tone.

"This young filly right here is responsible for it and it was just amazing!" Twilight exclaimed with stars in her eyes.

"I would've thought it was you Twilight, but I guess it's alright to have something different for a change." Rainbow Dash remarked as she walked over to Kanna to introduce herself.

Rainbow Dash held out her hood and gave Kanna her name and in return, Kanna shook Rainbow's hoof softly and introduced herself as well.

"So, what are you guys doing here?" Rainbow asked.

"Oh, I'm glad you asked! Kanna here wants a cutie mark, so I thought I would go take her to the Cutie Mark Crusaders." Twilight explained.

"That reminds me, have you seen them around anywhere? I was going to go check if they were in their tree house, but I want to make sure first." Twilight wondered.

"I haven't seen them around Ponyville so maybe they're in their tree house!" Pinkie suggested.

"Scootaloo not in cloudsdale, and she hasn't been at my house all day. I think Sweet Apple Acres is your best bet." Rainbow recommended as she said her goodbyes and flew off.

"I should get back to Sugarcube Corner now, see ya later Twi, bye Kanna and Spike" Pinkie also began to leave the three of them simply waved.

"Well, we should head to Sweet Apple Acres now." Spike suggested as he climbed onto Twilights back.

"Right. Kanna can you fly yet in this form?

"Mm. Not fast yet." Kanna simply replied as she and Twilight took off into the air and flew to Applejack's farm.

Dragon Land: (With Tohru and Kobayashi) 12:03 am

"Remind me why we came here again?" Kobayashi asked as she looked bored as ever.

"I'm curious about the dragons in this world." Tohru stated as she began to walk to where all the roaring was coming from.

"Oh, right. Just don't be rude or mean ok?" Kobayashi made sure to keep a close eye on Tohru's actions.

"If you wish to live, please stay on my back Ms. Kobayashi. These dragons seem quite petty and stubborn." Tohru suggested as she arrived.

Tobruk was around the size of a full grown dragon in Equestria, though she was a bit larger by an almost unnoticeable amount. There was a humongous blue dragon that had horns with which almost resembled a bull, and she took a guess that he was the alpha of this group. She would be very surprised when she found out about the true leader.

"Hey Tohru, didn't you say that dragons in your world normally live alone or their isolated or something?" Kobayashi asked.

"Yeah, but it seems that it's simply not the case here. They're all gathered in one big group. It's kinda surprising to see that. Back in my world we all lived alone. We only came together when it was time for the next generation to be born. It was kinda lonely to be honest." Tohru explained with a hint of grieve in her voice as she gave a small sad smile (though in her dragon form it was hard to tell what her expression was but Kobayashi could see it in her eyes.

Man, it's kind of depressing when I talk about stuff like this with Tohru. But it's fine because I guess we all need it every now, and again. Kobayashi thought to herself as she softly rubbed Tohru's scales.

"Well, I lived alone alone before you and Kanna came along, so I kinda know how you feel." Kobayashi tried reassuring Tohru a little bit.

Tohru felt better and headed down the crater like mountain to greet the first dragon she saw. It had red scales that shined under the sunlight, he didn't have horns, but rather web-like ears and his spikes were unnecessarily long and obnoxiously stuck out on his head. He had been napping but immediately woke when he heard Tohru's approach. He began to speak to Tohru in snarls and roars, he occasionally grunted and growled. Even though Tohru could understand him clearly, Kobayashi didn't understand a single word.

"Who are you and what do you want?" The red dragon grunted rudely.

"My name is Tohru Kobayashi and I was just curious about you all. I was wondering if we could talk for a bit?" Tohru tried to keep her anger under control and almost popped a vessel.

"I'm Smolder, and I don't feel like talking. I just wanna sleep so leave me alone." He growled as he laid his head down on the rock he was resting on. Tohru stood over him and blocked the sun from warming him up.

"Hey doofus, get outta the way of my sunlight or I'll blast ya with fire." Smolder threatened as he opened one eye to see Tohru giving him a fake friendly smile and an evilly cruel glare in her eyes.

"You wouldn't dream of challenging me. I'll rip you to shreds with a single swipe." Tohru bragged. Smolder was displeased to hear this and challenged Tohru to a fight. The other dragons simply stared, and among them was Garble and his dragon buddies. Then there was Ember who was just about ready to end the fight, but she wanted to see if she really needed to.

Smolder roared in agitation and readied himself for a fight and Tohru followed suit.

"Tohru what happened! I thought you were just curious about them. Don't start fighting one of them!" Kobayashi scolded.

"But he was being rude and I couldn't take it anymore...and I feel like killing him right now..." Tohru spoke that last part under her breath.

"Don't. Creatures as rude as him aren't worth the time. Let's just go. We can come back another day when everything is less tense." Kobayashi suggested.

Tohru grabbed Kobayashi with her mouth, set her down, and pushed her back with her hind leg. She gave Kobayashi a side glare and told her that it wouldn't take long. Kobayashi tried running back to Tohru to stop her but she hadn't gotten used to using four legs completely. She shouted and hollered for Tohru to just leave Smolder alone but to no avail.

Tohru then bursted into the air using her magical power and shot a thin beam of light at Smolder that later exploded right into his face. He roared in agony as blood spurted out of his head, and his under skin was revealed due to his scales being blown off. Tohru could have ended him with that one shot, but decided to leave him alive so that he could still feel the pain. A bit of his skull was visible and his once crimson face was black and half blown away into smaller pieces. Scarlet liquid trickled down from his now empty eye socket as he desperately rubbed and clawed at his face trying to get the pain to stop put only succeeding in making it worse. It burned, and it stung, and all Smolder could do was whimper and scream. Tohru had done major damage to him, and he was very wrong to misjudge this dragon. That's when Ember decided to step in.

"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!? YOU COME INTO OUR LAND AND START ATTACKING OUT OF NOWHERE! THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE HERE! I'M GONNA HAVE TO ASK YOU TO LEAVE NOW!" Ember shouted at the top of her lungs. Ember sprinted over to Smolder and tenderly rubbed his face.

"Oh Smolder, what did they do to you?" Ember hardly managed to say as tears formed in her eyes. Smolder didn't answer and simply whimpered.

"TOHRU! COME HERE!" Ms. Kobayashi called with clear anger in her voice. Tohru landed and bowed her head in shame as she braced herself for impact.

"...Eeyes Ms. Kobayashi?...." Tohru responded.

"I told you to keep yourself out of trouble, and this is what you do!? Can you fix that dragon or are you just gonna leave him in pain like that. No, don't even answer. Just fix your problem here." Kobayashi scolded. She sounded like a mother scolding their child for doing something stupid.

"Yes, Ms. Kobayashi." Tohru sadly replied as she walked over to Smolder. Ember was quick to jump in front of him as she tried to tell Tohru off.

"I said LEAVE!!" Ember shouted in Tohru's face. Tohru simply ignored her as she raised a talon and a magic circle appeared.

The red dragon's face turned from completely unrecognizable to normal as Tohru healed him. His pain was finally gone, but Tohru couldn't remove the black residue from the blast and so he had to live with it for the rest of his life. Ember and the other dragons stared in awe. Then Ember turned away from Tohru.

"Thank you for helping him, now please just go." Ember requested. As Tohru began walking away, Kobayashi stopped her, and told her to wait.

"You're not going anywhere. We're going to tell her what happened because this doesn't seem all right." Kobayashi stated as she and Tohru amass their way to face Ember's fury.

"Why are you still here, and why did you invite her back. You must obey the Dragon Lord or I will off you both myself." Ember spat. Tohru was very surprised indeed to hear that this small dragon was the leader of them all.

"Can I tell you what really happened?" Kobayashi asked formerly as she approached Ember. Ember reluctantly allowed it as she landed.

"Make it quick." Ember growled.

"Well you see, Tohru here was just trying ask Smolder, that's his name right," Ember nodded and Kobayashi continued, "a question and Smolder was being rude and he even went as far as to threaten her. Now, I won't say Tohru didn't do anything wrong," Tohru flinched at that, "because she kinda tested him but he was going a bit overboard too. She politely asked him a question which gives him no right to be a grump about it." Kobayashi defended Tohru, and Tohru could only look at Kobayashi lovingly. Garble noticed the way Tohru stared and wondered about her. When he finally reached a realization, he gagged.

"Ugh, what a waste. She was powerful enough to mess up Smolder but this is how she is. Bah." Garble spat.

Ember scratched her chin as she thought of a compromise. She got an idea of how to solve this.

"Alright, I've got an idea, but because we dragons are stubborn, and reckless, you two won't like it. You will both need to apologize to each other. Smolder, you apologize for being rude and Tohru is it," Tohru nodded, "you will apologize for mangling his face. Understand?" The two dragons nodded and walked toward each and reluctantly growled the words.

"...Sorry for blowing your face into oblivion..." Tohru apologized almost angrily as she refused to meet Smolder's eyes with her own.

Smolder took one of his talons and lifted her chin up so he could stare intensely into her eyes. Tohru did not like this at all.

"No, I'm sorry for being so insensitive and cruel to you. I can be very compassionate, you just caught me on a bad day." Smolder booped Tohru's snout lovingly and Tohru snorted in displeasure as a response.

"Well, we should go now." Kobayashi piped up as she waved for Tohru to come with her. Tohru happily obliged and carried Kobayashi on her head.

They took off and the dragons went back on with their daily lives.

As Tohru flew through the air with Kobayashi safely attached, they talked about dragons and what not and how different they were from Tohru's world. Tohru did most of the chatting however. Then Tohru smoothly landed for once in her life and returned to her pony form. She and Kobayashi entered Twilight's castle and figured out what to do for the rest of the day.

Author's Note

Hey guys, sorry this took so dang long. You know, my life just kinda got in the way you know? Anyway, I'll have the next chapter out as soon as possible, and one more thing: I cannot give you an organized schedule for new chapters, it would simply be impossible for an unorganized person like me you know? Anyway, see you next chapter!
