Solo & Jelly came back with Ivy as Ivy was still growling at Solo & Jelly. “She’s never gonna let it go?” Asked Jelly

“No way in hell. I mean we let her be taken care of by an animal obsessed caretaker.” Reply Solo as Ivy jumped over their fence and let her be absorbed into the soil. “She won’t be joining me until she decides to forgive me.” He said as they were about to enter the house until Jelly stopped him. “What? If it’s about the dungeons, your debt is paid.” He said as Jelly looked at him.

“Uh… Can we… go… out…?” She said as she paused for some time as Solo raised his brow.

“Out?” He said as he widened his eyes “Like a date?” He said as Jelly blushed.

“Yes…” Said Jelly as she looked at Solo “I… want us to have a real relationship.” She said “I know that dungeon is your life but… I have needs as well!” She yelled as Solo looked at her as he hugged her.

“Fine… But promise me this; if anyone insults you, I’ll break their teeth.” He said as Jelly looked at him.

“I’ll handle it in my own way.” She said as Solo laughed at that.

“I guess I am a bad influence.” He said as Jelly shook her head.

“Nope, the Guardian Leader taught us that. Because they’re not worth it as shark bait.” She said,

“Does she give lessons?” Said Solo as Jelly snickered.

“You would immediately be an A-plus student.” She said as they went inside to see Azza and the Minotaur woman they saved eating a bowl of vegetable stew. Azza turned to them.

“Hey Bro, Jelly. She managed to walk up the stairs to eat the stew Sky and I made.” She said as the minotaur turned to them slowly as she was eating. “Speak slowly because she still needs to recover.” She said as Solo walked up to her.

“Uh… hello… young lady.” He said as the minotaur looked at her “I… am… Solo Level, this is Sea Lyric or Jelly as we call her.” Said Solo. “I… see you met my sisters; Sky and Azza.” He said as the Minotaur nodded. “May… we have your… name?” He asked as the Minotaur blinked.

“T-Tori…” She said as Solo, and the others sighed as they knew who she was.

“We got a name.” Said Aza. “We don’t have to call her Milk Cow.” They turned to Aza as Tori turned to her. “What? I give everyone insulting nicknames. Celestia is Cake Disposal.”

“That’s an honest fact.” Said Solo as Jelly turned to Tori as she looked at Jelly and noticed her tail.

“I’m a Siren. Not a pony in any way, they don’t breathe underwater. Talk to me.” She said as Tori tried to open up to her.

“I… I… was a simple blacksmith.” She said to Jelly as Solo listened to her tale. “I was planning to make my own business in a village of ponies, but a pony hated me for no reason.” She said as Solo rolled his eyes knowing a racist when he heard one. “He had some odd ponies in black captured me while I was collecting wild mushrooms for dinner.” She said as Jelly patted her on the shoulder.

“I’m sorry to hear that.” She said as Tori nodded.

“I was locked up for 10 days when they brought in the dragons. They’re just innocent children who were captured near a cave eating gems and a lake eating fish.” She said as she wiped her tears from her eyes as Sky entered from the basement.

“Okay, we got some good news and some bad.” She said as Solo rolled his eyes as Azza snarled.

“Don’t tell me they want to stay?!” She said with rage.

“No. The bad news is they’re scared after what those ponies did to them, so they refuse to leave the basement.”

“*GROAN*!!!” Roared Azza

“But given their Draconic Codes or whatever they call it.” Said Sky as they turned to Azza as she shook her head.

“Ice Dragons don’t have that code because no one’s stupid enough to save or help an Ice Dragon in their natural habitat.” She said as they nodded.

“Given that Solo saved them, they’ll do whatever he says until they save him which is impossible given that my brother is a frightening warrior who will kill anything larger than him.” She said as Solo nodded. “They will do whatever you want.” She said as Solo sighed.

“Great… I have minions.” He said. “I guess I can find something for them to do instead of being our maids.” He said as Jelly turned to the basement door as Azza grabbed Solo.

“I better not dare to do that! I will stab you with an icicle if you do that!!!” She said as Solo pushed her off him.

“I don’t need maids. Not that this house is a mess.” He said as they noticed that the house is always spotless. He turned to Tori as his eyes widened in realization. “Tori…” He said as she turned to him. “Are you an expert in blacksmithing?” He said as Sky looked at him.

“What are you up to?” He said as they all looked at him.

“I believe I have found a blacksmith who can help us with some of our requests.” He said as Azza turned to Solo.

“My request for equipment that makes me immune to fire and heat.” She said as they turned to Tori who looked scared as Jelly hugged her.

“Don’t worry. We’ll protect you.” She said as she turned to Solo. “Solo has some… special allies that will protect us.” She said as Solo’s shadow grew as Tori looked shocked to see his Shadow Soldiers as they bowed to her as his shadow shrank as he got up.

“We’ll supply you with the tools for your smith and give you food and a home." He said as he went home. “Just don’t expect me to want something other than your products.” He said as he went to his room, Sky looked at Tori.

"Uh… just sleep in my room. I’ll sleep in the attic.” She said as she flew to the second floor, the other dragons came up and bowed to Azza.

“We live to serve your brother.” They said to her “Tell us what you need?” Azza groaned.

“I will kill Solo for this.”

The Next Day
Solo was eating breakfast as he noticed that everyone eating at the table was a bit uncomfortable, especially Azza who is forced to be with her natural enemy and her alternate element. “This is one messy house.” Said Azza as Sky turned to her.

“You clearly forgot what kind of family you grew up with?” She said as Azza paused and sighed.

“Retracted.” She said as the 2 dragons looked happily at Solo which annoyed him.

“Remind me what these dragons’ names are?” He said as they stood tall and got on one knee.

“My name is Farox.” Said the Fire Dragon

“And my name is Akrox.” Said the Water Dragon.

“We’ll do anything for you.” They both said as Solo rolled his eyes and looked at Tori.

“Alright listen up!” He said as they looked up. “You both now have jobs.” He said “As Tori’s Blacksmith helpers. Providing her fire and water in crafting her tools, weapons, armor, and accessories as we’ll pay you for them.” Said Solo as they looked surprised as Tori was a bit doubtful.

“I am sorry… but I don’t-'' Solo tossed a large bag of bits at Tori’s feet as her eyes widened. She then looked at Solo “What is important when crafting the object? The look or the quality?” She said

“Quality.” Said everyone as Tori looked at them.

“We’re going to need a forge.” She said, “That’s above ground and a good smithy.” She said as she got up and grabbed a sheet of paper and a quill to design the smithy as Sky and Azza watched her making the designs.

“I’ll gather the materials.” He said as Jelly followed him out the door.

“How are you going to gather the materials for Tori?” She asked, “I doubt you can gather much ore… or are you going to use those crystals you’ve collected in those dungeons?” She said as Solo turned to her.

“Well to be honest, what I learn about entering dungeons and collecting the loot I gain from them; their remains can be used to create what we used.” He said Jelly was a bit disgusted in hearing, but he frowned at her “Before you complain; that trident that I gave you was made from the giant shark’s fang and rib bone.” He said as Jelly looked shocked but decided to ignore that fact.

“Fine… but I don’t know how we can collect them… remains without letting the town discover them.” She said as Solo put some thought into it.

“There are normally 3 groups when entering a dungeon; a Strike Team that battles monsters, an Excavation Team to collect the Mana Crystals and a Collection Team to collect the remains of the creatures that the Strike Team slain.” He explained as Jelly stared at him.

“Why do you want to do this shit?” She said as Solo paused “I mean… you don’t have to risk your life doing this? When I went with you the 1st time, I witnessed a giant shark chomp your wings off. I was horrified that I blame myself that you nearly died. Tell me, why do you do that shit even though you can control it?” She said as Solo remembered the past, back when he was still human.

• XXXX witnessing people being killed by monsters escaping from a dungeon portal.
• XXXX seeing his comrades being killed in that dungeon with that creepy statue and its minions.
• XXXX sacrificed his life to take down a lunatic rapist.

Solo snarled. “I… lost so much.” Said Solo as he turned to Jelly who patted his shoulder.

“It’s your old life, isn’t it?” She said as Solo looked shocked “Sky told me. She also told me to tell you that she’s using that life coupon you gave her on her birthday so that you won’t kill her for telling me your life.” She explained as Solo groaned.

“That little bitch but respect on how and when she used her coupon.” He said as Jelly looked at him. “*Sigh* I hated feeling useless and always will.” He said as his memories of his old life flash through his mind. “My previous life was a world filled with a race of evolved apes called humans.” He explained as Jelly imagined walking, talking primates. “They’re not primates. Just evolved apes that were hairless except for the top of the head and some few hairs that grow a bit that won’t make a coat.” He said as Jelly nodded.

“Continue.”

“My old world originally had an advancement in technology instead of magic. It was kind of a peaceful world but also filled with hate, war, and destruction, almost like Equestria without different species that populate the world.” He said Jelly was a bit lucky to be a Siren.

“I’m grateful for gills.” She said

“Yeah… a few decades ago, an unnatural phenomenon happened. A massive Gate appeared and some of the humans gained powers caused by their personal awakening. Despite their awakenings, they become a bit stronger than their natural strength and gain magical abilities. Gates began popping all over the planet and the humans trained and explored them to collect resources from the portals to locations to another world filled with monsters that hunt and kill. “To be honest; there are some monsters that kill for sport or entertainment.” He said as Jelly looked shocked to hear that.

“Oh my…” She said

“The strength or the awakenings are measured by ranks from E to S.” Explained Solo as he turned to Jelly. “When I got my awakening, my parents abandoned me because they were in a religion that fears awakenings. They got rid of me even though my awakening was mostly for healing but didn’t care for the wounded I could heal or save.” He explained as Jelly moved closer to him and placed her head on his shoulder. “Thanks… I later found my family, a guild where people care for one another as we work together to make a living by exploring Gates and gathering the resources from them to create equipment to battle against the monsters living there.” He said “I’ve seen some horrors that no one should see. That statue and that smile of his is something I’ll never forget.” He said Jelly looked scared of him.

“Was… the statue… that frightening?” She asked.

“That statue wanted the other humans and me to complete its tasks or be killed by its statue minions.” Said Solo “After those tasks were completed, I nearly died by them but was completely unharmed, no stab wounds nor lost body parts when they found me. I didn’t know that I gained something new until I died, this power of mine. I refuse to let it torture me. If I don’t complete daily quests, I’ll be sent to a desert filled with giant scorpions that will kill and eat me.” He said as Jelly stared at him.

“Well… your muscles are starting to show.” Said Jelly as Solo narrowed his eyes at her. “Sorry but you are getting sexier with them.” She said as she grabbed his arm to feel them.

“Suddenly, the gruesome faces of giant scorpions don’t seem so bad.” He said as Jelly smacked him on the arm.

“DICK!” She yelled.

“No offense but I don’t want huge muscles.” He said as Jelly raised her brow.

“Why not?”

“YEAH!!!” They both turned to see a massive and muscular male Pegasus with small wings working out as he turned to them “Hello neighbors.” He said in a polite tone as he jogged away.

“Oh… I see your point.” She said as she looked at Solo. “So… About our date.” She said,

“Fine… We’ll go anywhere you want. I’ll pay for it.” He said as Jelly wagged her tail.

“Promise me, you’ll try to enjoy it.” She said as she hugged him.

“Question though, do you have a dress for the restaurant dates?” He said as Jelly smirked.

“I do, I’m having one prepared already.” She said as she walked away while swaying her hips at Solo as he narrowed his eyes.

(“Damn siren… she has the curves for that body.”) He said in his mind as he went back to their house.

At the Carousel Boutique
Jelly was posing in front of mirrors in a beautiful sea blue dress as Rarity was watching with pride. “Thank you Rarity. This is lovely.” She said as Rarity.

“It wasn’t much, darling. But this is a great experience for making a dress for a Siren.” Said Rarity since she only had pony-shape mannequins. Jelly twirls the dress as she looks amazing in it.

“I’m also amazed that you made the dress flexible for my tail.” She said the backside of the dress was a sleeve at the rear of the dress for her tail.

“That was my biggest challenge but I’m happy to see that you feel comfortable.” She said as Jelly hugged Rarity.

“Thank you.” Said Jelly as she floated out the store as Rarity waved farewell.

Back home, at his parents’ house
Solo went back to his home to see them as he told them about what happened during his time living at his new home. Huntsman and Red Rain were sharpening some knives. “I can’t believe we missed some assholes!” Yelled Red Rain as Solo was sitting in a chair.

“I know… but this isn’t about the victims. I need to know who in our village can sell me a suit?” He said as they looked smug.

“You don’t need to buy one.” Said Huntsman, “I’ll give you my old suit.” He said as Solo narrowed his eyes as they realized why he’s doing that.

“Oh! Don’t worry son. It's one of my old suits that I didn’t plant any weapons in.” He said as Solo checked the unusual spots for weapons and pulled out a shiv.

“It’s just a shiv.” Said Red Rain as Solo pulled out a bottle with small purple balls.

“My poison.” Said Huntsman as Solo looked annoyed. “Right… let me check my old suits.” He said as he went to the attic as Solo looked at his mom.

“I think you should check your old dresses in case you give them to Sky.” He said as his mom ran to her closet. “Ugh… I knew I should have bought a suit.” Said Solo as the time went by.

Later
Jelly was standing in front of the house, holding a purse as the others were waiting for Solo with her. “Where is that brother of ours?” Said Sky.

“He went to get a suit.” Said Azza “I don’t know where but if it's from dad, he’s waiting for him to remove all the hidden weapons and possible poisons in them.” She said as Tori and the dragons looked at her. “Don’t ask.” She said as a portal appeared as Solo came out in a black suit.

“Sorry I’m late. Had to find a suit and our dad’s old suits were being emptied out for his hidden tools." He said as Sky rolled her eyes.

“Called it.” She said as Jelly floated to him.

“I know where we can go. Take us to Canterlot.” She said as Solo opened a portal as they entered, leaving the others behind.

“What… are we… gonna do?” Said Tori as she’s starting to heal from her stuttering as Azza was holding a strange device.

“I found Solo’s device that he spends time in his room to see them moving pictures.” She smirked as Sky looked at it.

“Got something to see?” She asked.

“That hero with that shield.” Said Azza but frowned. “But I won't like the arrogant dragon and living corpse.” She said as they went back inside.

In Canterlot, at the Horizon(thought by TheWulf05)
Solo and Jelly appeared in front of the restaurant. “Is this the place?” Asked Solo.

“Yes! Celestia even made the reservation in exchange for forgetting what you did with those shadow monsters of yours.” She said as Solo narrowed his eyes.

(“Of course.”) Thought Solo as they both entered the restaurant as they saw a lot of fancy decorations and a lot of rich ponies eating happily as they went to the desk to meet the waiter. The waiter saw them and looked disgusted.

“May I help you sir and… madam?” He said as Jelly smiled.

“We have a reservation.” She said happily as the waiter looked horrified and kept a professional face as he opened his book.

“Names?”

“Solo Level and Jelly Lyric, party of 2.” Said Jelly as the waiter found their name with VIC next to them but decided to do something different.

“Sorry but I don’t see your names.” Said the waiter Jelly looked shocked by it, but Solo decided to change his mind.

“Really? I guess we must tell Celestia that the reservation she made isn’t there.” Said Solo as the waiter looked surprised.

“What?”

“Yep, she made it and told us the place. I guess she isn’t perfect after all but it very unlikely any pony would ever ignore something made by an Alicorn.” He said as his malicious face started to show. “I feel sorry for the pony who’ll get banished to the sun or moon with Princess Luna whose Nightmare Moon, they’ll die instantly but it's something we’ll see in the newspaper tomorrow.” He said as he grabbed Jelly’s hand. “Let’s go.” He said as they turned around as the waiter was frantic at the book.

“Wait!” He yelled at them which alerted the customers inside as he laughed nervously “As it turns out, the pages were stuck together. You do have a reservation, come with me to the VIP.” Said the waiter as he brought them to their table.

“Thank you.” Said Jelly quietly as she grabbed Solo’s hand as they went to their table as they sat down.

“I’ll bring the drinks.” He said as Solo smirked.

“All ponies are weak to Celestia.” He said Jelly smiled as they prepared to enjoy their meal if the other customers didn't flap their mouths at them.

“I can’t wait for this.” Said Jelly read the menu as Solo waited for the waiter as the same one who tried to deny them with a bottle of champagne.

“Our finest brand to the lovely couple.” He said as Solo checked it out.

Champagne 0% Alcohol Contained

The waiter slowly opened the bottle and prevented the cork from flying and poured the bubbly liquid in their glasses as they raised their glasses.

“To the date.” Said Jelly.

“The date.” Said Solo as they clinked their glasses as they enjoyed their dinner as some of the customers were disgusted by them.

“Ugh! How can that stallion handle that smell?” Said a prissy mare.

“He must have no sense of smell.” Answered an arrogant stallion as Solo’s eye twitched a bit as Jelly grabbed his hand.

“Calm down…” She said as they kept hearing the insults. Solo and Jelly got their meals and ate it as a couple of unicorn nobles stood near them.

“My dear Upper Crust, isn’t your nose a delicate piece?” Said the male unicorn

“It is my beloved Silver Frames.” Said Upper Crust. “I think I can wash the smell away.” She said as she dumped a cheap bottle of cheap on Jelly who looked shocked along with Solo. “There! That got rid of the smell!” They both laughed at Jelly whose eyes were twitching and started smiling.

“Uh-oh…” Said Solo.

20 Minutes Later
Solo & Jelly jumped out of a portal as they were gasping. “You had to do it.” Said Solo “Normally I would have done something like that, but you beat to it.” He said angrily and looked happy. “You are one badass siren.” He said as Jelly blushed.

“I didn’t mean to, but I couldn’t hold in my anger.” She said as Solo snickered.

“I mean you unleashed a torrent on those 2 snobs and flooded the entire restaurant.” He said as Jelly blushed.

“I was in control of my emotions until they insulted my species as Sluts of the Sea. Also, at least my chest is real. That illusion spell of hers was convincing.” She said,

“At least you got your revenge.” Said Solo as they entered an empty cave. “We better hide in here until the heat is down.” He said as Jelly looked embarrassed.

“You think Celestia will give me a warning?”

“You, yes. Me, not a change with the shit I’ve done.” He said as they relaxed in a barrier Solo made as Jelly cuddled him. She looked at him as she was holding something; a bottle of expensive wine.

"Want a drink?" She asked.

The Next Day
Solo and Jelly were sleeping with a large blanket covering them as Jelly was holding on to Solo as he was starting to wake up with Jelly close to him. He got up to see he was shirtless and noticed their clothes were folded in a corner and an empty bottle. “Right...” He said with a smirk. “At least Jelly wasn’t in heat.” He said as he used his magic to bring them closer to them and waited for Jelly to wake up but looked at the empty bottle "I know I'm immune to all poison, but I guess nontoxic things like Jeacot, can infect me with drunkenness unlike alcohol." He looked at it "I guess I have still some things to keep learning." He said as Jelly woke up and blushed.

"Tell me that I didn't-"

"Nope. We... both wanted it... through this let us gave in our inner lust." He said as Jelly looked at the bottle, frown and smirked.

"At least that dumb couple will be miserable for the night." She said.

"Okay, I am bad influence on your innocence." Said Solo as Jelly laughed

"You?! An influence on my innocence?! Have you spent time with my mom?! She's beyond the most perverted Siren in the entire oceans!" She yelled "How you ever spend a night hearing your parenting doing each other?!" She asked as Solo narrowed his eyes.

"Since the day I was born." He said as Jelly looked surprised as blushed since she realized that Solo, Azza & Sky's parents are beyond lovely-dovely.

"Sorry." She said as she stood up and was topless. "Let's never mention this to anyone." She said.

"If Celestia hasn't discover us." He said as they got dressed as Jelly kissed Solo.

"Let's try to go on a simple date, next time." She said as Solo carried her in his arms.

"Next time." He said while walking to a portal, Celestia was hiding behind a tree with a red face.

"He's just like his ancestor Gates; arrogant, rude, and... and..." Celestia paused and shook her head fast "I need to see my Sombra!" She said as she teleported our of the area.

Author's Note

Well, that's a date that's went odd. Before you ask why I made this, its because those in Solo's family cared for him and don't want him to risk his life in dungeons that exist to kill anyone. Also someone asked why Azza exist in this story? You'll know soon, in the next chapter when she makes it big in her element. Leave a comment and see ya next time.
