Chapter 1: Old Memories

The sun was shining high in the sky. Its rays of warmth illuminated the green landscape. It was a clear, warm and sunny day, beautiful enough that many would spend the day outdoors and bask in its glory. Which is exactly what’s gonna happen with the students of Canterlot High. Today, the students were on their way for a school trip to Camp Everfree.

Everyone was excited to go, including the Mane 7. However, it came as a surprise when they found out another school was joining them. It also surprised them when they heard the students joining them are from Canterlot Technical Institute, a private high school for boys.

A few of the CHS students thought that they might act like the students at Crystal Prep. But in reality, most of them are mild-mannered, far from the perceived snootiness that those from Crystal Prep were known for. Though, it was a bit difficult for the CHS students to see past it considering the mode of transportation that’s driving right next to them. The CTI students’ bus was this huge black and red bus that had a picture of a raven on the side. It was big enough to be like one of those buses that drive off to places that are 4 to 6 hours away.

“Ooooh! I am so nervouscited!!!” Pinkie said, bouncing on her seat.

“That makes all of us, sugarcube,” AJ added. “It’s not every day we get to go to Camp Everfree as a class. Ah’m definitely gonna pass on this story to those who couldn’t make it.”

“Yeah, I betcha this trip will be awesome!” Rainbow Dash chuckled.

“Let’s not forget we the many hours of sunbathing I could catch up on. I simply cannot go home as pale as I am now, darlings,” Rarity said, looking at her snow white skin.

“That’s not true, Rarity. You look nice,” Fluttershy said.

“I heard that at the end of this trip, we’re supposed to make something to remember our wonderful experience. What do you think would be a good memento, Sunset?” Twilight asked. However, for some reason, she didn’t respond. “Sunset?”

Again, no answer. Sunset’s eyes were fixated on one of the windows of the CTI bus. For her, it was like a feeling of deja vu. She swore the silhouette looked familiar to her.

“Hey, Earth to Sunset, Twilight’s talking to you,” Rainbow yelled slightly.

“Huh, what?” Sunset asked, snapping out of her trance. “Sorry, what was it you said?”

“Is something wrong, Sunset? Is something bothering you?” Twilight asked

“Oh, Uh- one of the students in that bus looked familiar to me but I don’t know why.”

“You mean you might’ve known them from somewhere before?” Rarity asked.

“It’s possible, but I’m not sure,” Sunset said, lightly scratching her head. Just then, their thoughts were interrupted by the sound of loud music coming from the CTI bus. And as if it didn’t get more surprising, the students in the CTI bus started singing along to the song.

“Sounds like they’re having a blast, lucky bastards,” Rainbow said.

“Y’all would think they’re in some kind of singin’ group,” AJ said.

“I’ll say. I got a feeling this is gonna be the BEST… FIELD TRIP… EVER!!!” Pinkie exclaimed before squealing.

“Settle down, Pinkie. We’re almost there, so let’s not celebrate just yet. We’ve yet to reach our destination, so the last thing we need is you jumping up and down the walls,” Luna said.

“Oopsies. Sorry, Vice-Principal Luna,” Pinkie said with her innocent smile.

“Who are you trying to fool, sis? You know you’re just as excited as I am about re-visiting the camp after all these years,” Principal Celestia said, nudging Luna playfully.

“Shh, not in front of the students,” Luna whispered.

“Fair enough.” Celestia shrugged

After about a few more minutes, the buses both arrived at the camp. And at the entrance, a single young lady was there to greet the students. All the students from CHS were the first to step off. Celestia and Luna walked over to greet the young lady.

“Hello there, everybody. Welcome to Camp Everfree,” the young lady said.

“Hello!” The schools replied simultaneously.

“Wow, nice to see such enthusiasm.” She chuckled with delight, “Allow me to introduce myself. I am Gloriosa Daisy, proud owner of Camp Everfree.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Gloriosa,” Principal Celestia said. “And it’s so wonderful to be back after all these years.”

“Ah yes, I’ve heard a lot about you two and the magnificent sundial you made for this camp,” Gloriosa said.

“It was a memorable day for the both of us.” Luna chuckled.

“And I take it there are some more students that will be joining us?” Gloriosa asked, noticing the CTI bus parked next to the CHS bus.

“Oh yes, that’s right. There are some students from Canterlot Technical Institute that were selected to join us on the trip. They wanted to come out here to escape the pressures of the loud city life. It will be a great opportunity for them to unwind out in the great outdoors.”

Next thing they know, the CTI school bus opens up. And out walks the seven students, along with the headmaster. Luna recognized the headmaster as her husband, Principal Sombra. Right behind him were three familiar faces that Luna and Celestia instantly recognized. First was the student who resembled a younger version of Sombra. The second student was a boy with long red hair and snow white skin. His eyes were like sapphires and underneath his eyes were what looked like scars. His body looked built, but he was slightly skinny at the same time.

Celestia felt like her world was turned upside down when she saw one of the boys. And this one particular boy that was standing next to the one with long red hair. He had light yellow skin with orange hair and purple eyes just like hers. He was slightly shorter than the red-haired boy and had a skinny figure.

“I never expected to see you here of all places. It’s good to see you again,” the boy with orange hair called out. Celestia gasped.

“Heat Blitz? Is that you?” Celestia asked. She was in awe at the sight of her younger son.

“It’s great to see you again, mom,” he replied running over to her. Celestia opened up her arms and wrapped her arms around her son.

“Likewise, my son.”

“Principal Celestia, you never told us you were a mother,” Rarity said, surprised.

“Well, now you know. Heat Blitz is my youngest.” Celestia said, “I rarely got to spend time with him because of my busy schedule. But, he’s my precio-” As her sight drifted around, her eyes caught another familiar sight. She hadn’t seen him in a long time yet she still recognizes his red hair anywhere. Tears began to well in her eyes as she struggled to process all her emotions. “E-Eternal Flames?”

The one called Eternal Flames turns his attention to Celestia. She instantly runs over to him and wraps her arms around him tightly. Eternal’s eyes widened from the surprise hug.

“Uh…” was all he could muster to say.

“E-Eternal, don’t you recognize me? It’s me, your mother.” Celestia said.

“Really? I didn’t know that,” Eternal said. Celestia was confused herself. How can her other son not know who she is?

“Eternal, how can you not recognize our mom?” Heat Blitz spoke up. “We grew up with her.”

“I-I… I honestly don’t know.” Eternal replied. Just then, he gets minor headache, followed by a series of past memories flooding his mind. He grunted in pain a little.

“Eternal, what’s wrong? Are you okay?” Celestia asked.

“Just a minor headache, I’ll be fine,” he insisted, gripping his head. “I just need to sit down.”

Celestia wasn’t the only one who instantly recognized him. Sunset also took notice of him. The second she laid eyes on him, her eyes lit up like a christmas tree.

“Sunset, what’s wrong? You look like you’ve just witnessed something divine,” Rarity said.

“I… I’ll tell you and the others later,” Sunset said. ‘Is it really him? But how? He couldn’t have known about the portal. Or is he originally from this world?’ she thought to herself. Maybe I’ll find out soon if I can talk to him.

After gathering her thoughts, the rest of the CTI students followed their Principal and gathered together with CHS. The girls all got a pretty good look at the remaining students: The 4th male student had messy, black hair with aqua blue skin. His shirt and pants were different shades of blue with the top being faded light blue and his pants being dark blue. And he had brown eyes.

The boy next to him had light yellow skin and spikey blonde hair. He had on a short-sleeved brown shirt with two chest pockets and had on blue jeans. His eyes looked like a faded green color just like Gaara’s Naruto.

Next to him was a boy who had minty green skin and brown eyes. His shirt was a regular green color, a little darker than his skin. His pants were an even darker shade of green, but his hair was a silver color.

And lastly, the 7th student had tan skin and hazel eyes with dark brown, messy hair. His body was built similar to Big Macintosh. He wore a black t-shirt with a sticker of an erupting volcano on the front and wore this blue opened vest with chest pockets and had on blue jeans.

“I trust you had a safe journey here, too, sir?” Gloriosa asked.

“Of course. I figured my students deserve a little time away from the city life and spend a little time basking in mother nature,” Sombra said.

“Great! Now then, everyone, follow me! We have a lot to see and do and so little time.” Gloriosa had everyone follow her to the center of the camp and then cleared her throat. “Okay everyone, how are you all doing today?”

Everyone cheered in reply, minus one particular individual. “Great! Now then, for the sake of good ol’ Camp Everfree, we shall host different camp activities and if anyone has an idea for which activity they would like to do, please let me know! Because, for this entire week, it’s all about you!” she finished.

“Ooh! How about Rock Climbing!”

“What about a water balloon fight!”

“Ooh, Ooooh! A nice hike!”

Various people in the crowd all blurted these ideas out. “You got it!” Gloriosa said.

“A swimming race,” the boy with spikey, blonde hair said.

“Sounds like a plan!” Gloriosa replied.

“Oh, what about open mic karaoke?” Heat Blitz asked. “Our principal was kind enough to bring a karaoke machine.”

“Absolutely!” Gloriosa said cheerfully.

“Hey girls, don’t you think she’s taking on way too many ideas?” Sunset asked.

“I’m not even sure she can handle that many activities,” Twilight said.

“Well, I reckon she has a plan for all that.” Applejack mused.

“I certainly hope you’re right, darling,” Rarity said, concerned.

After jotting down a list of camp activities, Gloriosa moved on by getting a basket full of these different colored pieces of paper. “Alright everyone, pick a card and find the partner who’ll be your tent buddy,” she said.

One at a time, each student picked out their colored piece of paper. Each student searched to find their tent buddy and started pairing up. The only one who didn’t have one was the boy with spikey blonde hair, but he didn’t seem to care.

“Hey, Spark Burst!” Heat Blitz called out, getting his lonely friend’s attention.

“What is it,” he asked.

“Where’s your partner, didn’t you get one?” Heat asked.

“No. two people cannot be paired if the numbers are odd. Therefore, I shall be sleeping all on my own,” Spark stated, getting ready to pitch his tent.

“Oh boy. Uh, Gloriosa! Spark Burst doesn’t have anyone to be his tent buddy,” Heat called out. Gloriosa walked over to the two and mused for a moment, humming as she thought a solution.

“I suppose there’s no harm or foul in making exceptions.” She said, “Spark Burst, you’ll be paired up with Heat Blitz and his partner.”

“Thank you, ma’am.” Spark sighed as he gives Heat Blitz a high five, “Come Heat, let’s go get things set up.”

“Right! See ya, Eternal,” Heat said, waving at his older brother. Eternal waved back and kept on searching for his partner. Then all of a sudden, he felt something wrap around his neck, causing him to turn quickly to his side and saw the guy who looked like Sombra, only younger.

“Shadow Force, you almost gave me a heart attack,” Eternal said, trying not to yell.

“Lighten up, couz. Check it out,” Shadow Force showed him his paper, which was the same color as Eternal’s. “You and are gonna be tent buds for the rest of the week. Pretty cool, huh?”

“Hmm… yup,” Eternal agreed.

“Now, come on! The sooner we get this tent pitched, the sooner we can WOW the crowd!” Shadow said, patting his back a little too hard.

“Mmmph!” Eternal grunted. “Your high-lifting spirit never ceases to amaze me.”

Later on, after everyone was partnered up and the tents were all pitched up, the Mane 7 decided to have a little girl talk at the campfire. Sunset still had some explaining to do because of her recent behavior and she needed to get it off her chest.

“Alright, Sunset, tell us. What’s on your mind?” Twilight asked.

“I’m not sure if it’s just my imagination, but I think I’ve met one of the CTI students before. I don’t know if it’s him or not, but before I came to this world… there was this unicorn colt I met when I was just a filly. He and I did a lot of things together. But when I got my letter of acceptance to Princess Celestia’s school, I had to make a tough decision to leave. And now, I think I’m going crazy because one of those students looks exactly like my friend from Equestria,” she explained.

“Which one of them is it?” Twilight asked.

“Eternal Flames. And I’m not joking. I recognized those scars under his eyes,” Sunset said.

“Well, darling, if you say it’s him, then why don’t you just go talk to him? I’m sure he’d remember his own childhood friend. It never hurts to try,” Rarity implied.

“She’s right, Sunset. Go and say “hi” to him,” Fluttershy insisted.

“Well… okay, I’ll give it a shot,” Sunset said.

Sunset walked around the campground towards the lake, darting her eyes back and forth. She tried her best to find her supposed childhood friend. Thankfully, luck was on her side and found Eternal Flames sitting at the docks, skipping stones. Curiosity filled her mind as she remembered him or rather the Heat Blitz she knew. She didn’t know if he was the one she knew.

She approached Eternal and tapped him on the shoulder. “Hey, mind if I sit here?” she asked.

“Go right ahead,” Eternal replied, skipping another stone. Sunset sat down next to him. But now that she was there, she didn’t know what to say. She felt like she was just making things awkward between them.

“So, uh… anything new?” she asked. ‘Wow, that was pathetic,’ she thought.

“If you count that surprise hug from my supposed mother, then yes,” he said.

“Why is that?” Sunset asked.

“Well, I never really knew my mother when I was little. I lived my entire life with my father. Everything was fine at first. But then… well, something terrible happened when I was in my early teens and it caused a lot of bad blood between me and my father. I had to make a tough choice and leave him, my brothers, my sister-in-law and my niece behind. Somehow ended up here in this strange world where I--” then he stopped and slammed his hand in front of his lips.

“This strange world, what do you mean?” Sunset asked.

“Uh, it’s probably best I don’t tell you. You wouldn’t understand,” Eternal said.

“Come on, there’s no need to hide anything. You can tell me,” Sunset insisted.

“I can’t. It’d just sound like some half-assed story a child could come up with,” he said. Then, for some reason, he looked over at Sunset and immediately. “Wait a second, you look familiar.”

“You mean, you remember me?” Sunset asked, feeling her smile brighten.

“Uh, yeah, I think so. I never forget a face, especially one this cute and beautiful,” he said, making Sunset blush. Eternal then realized what he said and blushed a little himself. “Uh, sorry, I didn’t mean to sound like I was flirting.” he turned away in embarrassment.

“N-No, no, it’s fine. I’m flattered you think I’m pretty and cute,” she stuttered a bit. “Listen, if you ever want to talk, just let me know. I’ll be there if you need me.”

“Thanks, whoever you are.” Eternal said as he got up, “Come to think of it, you do remind me of someone, an old friend of mine.”

‘I was right! It IS him!’ Sunset thought to herself. “That’s sweet. Anyways, I’m gonna head back over with the girls. And before I forget… my name is Sunset,” she said, getting up to her feet.

“Eternal Flames,” he said, extending his hand for a handshake. Sunset, however, had other plans and surprised him with a hug and a kiss on the cheek. She winked at him and ran back over to the campfire. Eternal just stood there and placed a hand on the cheek Sunset kissed.

Sunset walked back to her friends, standing around a campfire formation. They were laughing and shooting the breeze. As Sunset neared them, Twilight Sparkle was the first to notice.

“Hey Sunset,” Twilight called as Sunset sat down with them, “where were you? We were going to practice making a campfire.”

“So, how’d it go with Eternal? Did he remember you?” Rainbow asked.

“I think he might but… I don’t know. He did say I sounded familiar to him.”

“Yippee! That’s great! And I have a feeling the best is coming after he remembers you,” Pinkie winked, teasingly.

“Pinkie! Dog gone, that’s her childhood friend, not friend with benefits!” AJ said.

“Buuut, it could happen!” Pinkie insisted.

“Uh… let’s not go that far,” Sunset said. ‘At least, not yet anyways.’ she thought.

“Well darling, I’m sure he’ll come around. Just give it time and he’ll come to you.” Rarity chimed, resting a hand on her shoulder.

“Yeah, but in the meantime, we’d better get some shut-eye. Tomorrow, we’ve got loads of cool activities to do!” Rainbow said.

“That’s right. We don’t want to be late for the camp activities. I guess I’ll go to sleep, too,” Fluttershy said.

The rest of the girls agreed and wished each other good night. All of them quickly got up and walked back to the campgrounds and went inside their tents, getting ready to catch a few Z’s.

Morning had rolled by in no time and the first to wake up was Twilight. She let out a yawn and sat up, opening up her eyes. She gasped in shock to see everything in her room, including her dog, Spike, being lifted off the ground by some magic force.

“U-Uh, S-S-Sunset?” Twilight asked.

“Mmm, not now, mom, 5 more minutes,” she groaned, reaching out instinctively for an alarm, but ended up falling off her bed. “OOF!” she grunted before getting up and rubbing her head. “Ow, what in the he-” as she opened up her eyes, she stopped mid-sentence and was surprised at the sight she was beholding. “T-Twilight, what’s going on?!

“I… I have no idea!” Twilight said, getting nervous. “Oh, I just hope it’s not all… her doing!”

Chapter 2: Nighttime Everfree Funtime

“T-T-Twilight, what’s going on here?” Sunset asked, shocked from the sight she was beholding, unable to think straight. Everything in their tent was levitating above the floor, even Spike, who was resting on his little doggy bed soundly. ‘How can Equestria magic be here? There’s just no way it could’ve followed us here.’

“I… I don’t know, I think… I think… It might be her doing this,” Twilight said in a bit of a panic, staring at the palm of her hands. “This must be Midnight Sparkle’s doing.”

“Hey, what’s all the ruckus abo-- WHOA!!!” a British voice called out from outside their tent, followed by their shouting and an audible thud. “Oof! Bloody hell, what’s going on, why is everything floating above the ground?”

Sunset and Twilight ran out of their tent and over to the neighboring tent where one of the CTI students, the blue one, was looking around his tent, baffled.

Next thing that happens is his tent buddy, who was surprisingly Flare Warden, one of Sunset’s old friends, waking up and gasping in surprise. She looked around instantly. “Umm… is there a reason why our stuff is floating in the air?” Flare asked, slightly frightened.

“Beats me,” the blue boy said. Suddenly, their stuff ends up falling to the ground after the magic veil vanishes, and thus the rest of the camp wakes up from this noise.

Sunset and Twilight check on everyone else to see if they’re okay. Though everyone was a little bit shaken up from being woken up like that, they were all fine. Well, everyone was woken up except for two individuals. Sunset and Twilight checked the tent where Eternal Flames and Shadow Force were still sleeping, snoring loudly in their beds.

“How do they sleep through that?” Twilight asked Sunset.

“I guess I should mention this,” said another male voice. Twilight looked over to see Eternal’s younger brother, Heat Blitz, walking over. “Those two are known to be heavy sleepers. Not even a marching band or a herd of stampeding elephant can wake them up, but there is a few things that can.”

“Like what?” Sunset asked.

“First, do any of you have anything sweet on you?” Heat asked. As if right on cue.

“I GOT CUPCAKES!!!” Pinkie exclaimed, popping out of nowhere.

“DAAH!!!” Heat shouted, backing away from the party thrower extraordinair. “Jeez, Pinkie, you scared the bejeebers outta me!”

“Oopsies, sorry. If it’s something sweet you’re looking for, I’ve got cupcakes!” she said, pulling a cupcake out of her hair.

“What the… Uh… I hope you don’t mind me asking, but how are you even able to hide those cupcakes in your hair and not get frosting all over you. Better yet, how are they even able to stay fresh?” he asked.

“One thing you gotta know about Pinkie Pie is that she’s unpredictable. So, it’s best not to question how she can do what she does,” Twilight said.

“O-Oh, okay then. I guess I can just--” but just as Heat Blitz was about to finish speaking, he and the rest of the girls got startled from the sound of Shadow Force’s loud voice.

“DID SOMEONE SAY CUPCAKES?!?!?!” he asked, jumping out of bed.

“He’s almost as unpredictable as Pinkie Pie, you sure he’s not her long-lost brother?” Sunset asked, turning her attention to Heat Blitz.

“If he wasn’t my cousin, I’d say he might be,” Heat said.

All the ruckus was just about enough to surprisingly wake up Eternal, causing him to rise from his bed, groaning in exhaustion. “What the hell’s all the ruckus about?” he asked, slowly getting out of bed, running his fingers through his messy hair. He was the first to come out of his tent, wearing nothing but his heavily dark sweats and black tank top. Shadow came rushing out to grab the cupcake he smelled earlier.

“Alright, breakfast is served!” Shadow said as Pinkie, with eyes-widened, gave him the cupcake and watched him eat it.

Only the girls looked surprised, not by how both boys awoke. The girls even blushed a bit to see that Shadow had actually slept topless and only wore black sweats. They could see his body was built just as much as Eternal was.

“I… well then, umm… shall we go and get some breakfast?” Twilight asked Sunset, who was still blushing intensely.

“Lemme guess, you girls are thinking “oh my god, you can grind meat on it,” Heat Blitz said with a deadpanned expression. This snapped the girls out of their trance and looked back at Heat Blitz, who seemed annoyed with the way they stared at his older brother and cousin. “Well, I’m gonna go wake up the rest of the guys.” And with that, he left the girls to chat on their own, just as the rest of the girls joined up with Pinkie, Sunset and Twilight.

“Good morning, darlings. What seems to be the trouble with young Heat Blitz?” Rarity asked.

“Yeah, he looks like me when I didn’t get the latest 1st edition Daring Do book. Did something get under his skin?” Rainbow asked.

“I think he might’ve gotten upset when we saw his older brother and cousin,” Twilight said.

“Why would he be so upset about that?” Fluttershy asked. “They don’t seem like the kind of guys who would harm anyone.”

“It’s because they’re built like tanks. Eternal Flames and Shadow Force are 2 of the 3 top fighters in our school. Eternal is the top boxer and Shadow is an expert in Taekwondo,” Spark Burst intervened.

“So then… he’s just upset because of how we reacted to seeing their bodies?” Sunset asked. “Well, I can’t exactly blame the poor guy. He doesn’t look like the kind of guy who has any interest in pumping iron. But, changing the subject, Spark Burst, was it?”

“Yes, what is it?” he asked.

“Did anything happen in your tent earlier just now?” Sunset asked.

“I remember the sound of Tidal Wave falling out of bed and then the feeling of our bed dropping to the ground,” Spark said. “But I didn’t see anything, sorry.”

“I see. Thanks for telling us. Just let us know if anything else happens,” Sunset said. Spark merely gave a nod and walked back to his tent, letting out a tired yawn.

“Sunset, what’s goin’ on?” Applejack asked.

“Girls, you’re not gonna believe what just happened. Twilight and I woke up to see that everything in our tent was lifted off the ground by Equestrian magic,” Sunset whispered.

“Equestrian magic? But I thought we came here to get away from Equestrian magic. Did it somehow follow us here?” Fluttershy asked.

“We’re not sure yet, I’ve got a strong hunch that it could be… M-Midnight Sparkle,” Twilight whispered, feeling anxious. Her friends all looked at each other, then back at Twilight.

“Her?” Applejack asked, “Your alter ego?”

“That can’t be true, Twilight. She doesn’t have control over you,” Sunset said. “Say Twilight, how about we take a little walk to help clear your mind?”

“I… I suppose that’d be okay,” Twilight agreed hesitantly.

Twilight and Sunset set out along the trail west of their campsite. The whole time, Twilight felt on edge about the whole ordeal Sunset was doing all she can to convince her that it wasn’t Midnight Sparkle behind it.

“Twilight, trust me. Midnight Sparkle doesn’t have any control over you,” Sunset insisted.

“I’m not so sure, Sunset. You saw how powerful she was during the Friendship Games. And to make it even worse, while we were on the bus, I had a dream about her. But it felt more like a nightmare than anything. What if she breaks loose from my hold and takes control over me like she did before?” Twilight asked.

“She won’t. Midnight Sparkle is nothing more than a distant memory: a harmless nightmare. And nothing can change who you really are. You are Twilight Sparkle and you more powerful than she’ll ever be,” Sunset said, gently patting Twilight’s back.

It was enough to bring her some comfort. Just then, the two of them heard a splashing sound. Both girls moved closer to the sound until they came across a riverstream where Eternal Flames was at. Sunset could see that he had his tank top off and splashing his face with the water. It looked like he was deep in thought as if something was bugging him.

“What’s he doing out here?” Twilight whispered.

“Beats me. Maybe it’s best we don’t interrupt him. He’s probably thinking about something,” Sunset implied.

“Yeah, I can actually hear him,” Twilight said. Sunset was curious about what her childhood friend was talking about so she listened in on him talking.

“This doesn’t make sense. How can I not know my mother is Celestia? Damn that idiot father of mine for not telling me! Alright, keep calm Eternal. Don’t go blowing smoke everywhere. Just think about this rationally and everything will be fine. But… what the hell was I thinking? Leaving my village, along with my pals and my brothers? I gotta find a way back so I can… NO! Not after what that idiot father put me through. As far as I can tell, he’s dead to me,” he said to himself.

“Yikes, sounds like he’s had a rough time. What did his father do that’d make him so mad?” Twilight whispered.

“I wish I knew. But whatever his father did, it must’ve really ticked him off. Maybe we can ask Principal Celestia about it. See if she can tell us what’s wrong with him,” Sunset implied.

“Good point. Let’s head back to camp,” Twilight said.
Sunset nodded in agreement and left with Twilight back to the campsite. Upon arriving, the notice that the other students were all gathered at the benches, having breakfast. The girls hurried on over to get themselves a plate of their food. For today’s menu, Gloriosa had made some oatmeal with slices of toast and pancakes, which Pinkie Pie helped her make.

“Welcome, girls. You’re just in time. Enjoy your meals,” Gloriosa said.

“Thanks, a bunch. And you too, Pinkie,” Twilight said, making Pinkie smile with a squee. Twilight and Sunset grabbed their food and sat down right next to Principal Celestia. “Principal Celestia, can we ask you something?”

“About what?” Celestia asked.

“It’s about your son, Eternal,” Twilight said.

“Is there anything you can tell us about him, like anything at all?” Sunset asked.

“It’s quite a bit to explain, but it should clear the air.” Celestia sighed, “Back then, my husband Blaze Burn had been a loving husband to me and an amazing father to my sons. Even though work was tough, he still found time to spend with his family. He brought smiles and laughter to us almost every day. But then, one day, everything changed for the worse. My husband’s father, Flame Blast suffered a heart attack and collapsed. He then died shortly after he had arrived at the hospital.”

“How did things get worse?” Sunset asked.

“Because after his father was buried, my son, Eternal, suffered the loss the most out of all of us, but Blaze Burn didn’t make things better. He turned cold and told him to stop crying. I argued with him back home and he kept ranting on about how it was Eternal’s fault Flame Blast was no longer with us. And he had the nerve to say that until he found a wife, he’s nothing to him. I was so angry I punched him square in the nose. A month after our argument, we filed for divorce. I should also mention that during our quarrel, Eternal must’ve heard us. A few months after we divorced, my son had vanished and I’ve been searching for him for 3 long years,” Celestia said.

“That’s terrible! Why would he say that about his own son?” Sunset asked.

“I don’t know, but he’s not the man I fell in love with anymore. And now that I have my son back, it hurts to find out that he doesn’t know who I am,” Celestia said, cupping her face to keep her tears hidden.

“I think it’s because this Eternal Flames… isn’t from this world. He might actually be the one who came from Equestria,” Sunset implied. “He probably came her the same way I did.”

The conversation dragged on for another five minutes until a familiar sight caught their attention. Eternal Flames walked into the area, clad in his normal attire of a red shirt and blue jeans and carrying a plate of hotcakes and eggs. After noticing the Canterlot High principal and Sunset sitting at a table talking to one another, he wanders over to them with a curious look on his face.

“Eternal!” Celestia said as he sat down, “How are you?”

“Great, I guess.” Eternal replied as he took a bite of his pancakes, “I’m sorry if I upset you or anything yesterday, ma’am.”

“Oh, it’s alright.” Celestia chuckled as she ate her breakfast, He looks just like my son. Yet, he doesn’t recognize me. Could Sunset be right?

“Celestia, are you alright?” Twilight asked, breaking the principal’s train of thought.

“Oh uhhhh, it’s nothing, Twilight.” Celestia answered back, “I was just thinking about yesterday, that’s all. Girls, would it be alright if I had a moment alone with Eternal? There are some things I need to clear up with him.”

“Sure, no problem. Come on, Twilight,” Sunset said. Twilight and Sunset both got up and moved to sit with the girls. Now that Celestia was alone with Eternal, she could finally try to get her troubles off her chest.

“Eternal, about yesterday. I just wanted to apologize for surprising you like that. It’s just that you remind me do much of my own son. You and him… both look exactly the same,” Celestia said. “For three years, I thought that my precious boy had returned to me, but… I guess I was only half right.”

“I’m guessing my doppelganger is still out there? If he is, maybe one of these days I’ll go look for him and bring him back to you,” he said, patting Celestia’s shoulder gently. “Besides, I’m not sure I belong here.”

“Don’t say such things! Regardless of what you might think, you’re still a son to me. And if he’s still out there, then that just means there’s more to love. Your brothers’ll think so, too. Now, what do you say we finish up our breakfast so we can move on with the camp activities?” Celestia asked with a warm smile.

“Alright, you win,” Eternal said.

A few minutes after everyone was fed, it was time to start the activities. The first one was a simple game of One-on-one Tug o’ War. One camper each would go up against each other to see who can pull the rope away from each other.

The first two competitors were Applejack and one of the CTI students who goes by the name of Ground Breaker, the boy with the hazel eyes, tan skin and blue overall open vest.

Both students grabbed each end of the rope and Gloriosa acted as judge. “Alrighty campers, get yourselves ready, the tug-of-war battle is about to start!” she exclaimed. Ground Breaker and Applejack put on their best game faces, staring each other down.

“May the best one win,” AJ said.

“You got that right. Good luck,” Ground Breaker replied.

“And… BEGIN!” Gloriosa shouted.

Right away, both campers tugged at the rope with all their might. Both of them seemed evenly matched in strength. The girls cheered on for Applejack to beat this guy. She had Ground Breaker dragging against the ground at first. But, Ground Breaker summed up the strength to pull Applejack up closer as he was backing up.

Ground Breaker’s pals cheered him on to put more back into it. The battle raged on for a few more minutes until the unexpected happened. With one last tug and in a flash, the rope suddenly snapped in the middle, sending both campers flying backwards.

Both campers landed on their buttocks. “Oh my! It looks like… It looks like we have a draw!” Gloriosa said in shock. The others were in disbelief, but gave the two a round of applause. Well, everyone, except for Sunset and Twilight. Something didn’t sit well with what just happened.

“That was so accident, that was definitely the work of Equestrian magic,” Sunset whispered.

“You saw it too, huh? First the levitation magic in ours and other people’s tents, then the rope snapping, there’s no doubt that there’s Equestrian magic here. But where is it coming from?” Twilight whispered back.

“Okay, since the rope has taken enough abuse, what do you all say we get move onto some good ol’ fashioned swimming race?” Gloriosa asked.

Everyone cheered and then headed on back to their tents to change into their swimsuits. However, aside from Twilight and Sunset, Heat Blitz stayed behind to check up on the broken rope on the floor. Twilight’s curiosity got the better of her and walked up to Heat Blitz just as he kneeled down and grabbed one of the ends of the rope.

“Is… something wrong, Heat Blitz?” Twilight asked.

“Don’t you think it’s strange?” he asked, his demeanor completely different from his usual self. “This rope looks like it was newly made, yet it broke apart as if time had come up with it. And to top it off, the rope is way too thick to snap from just raw strength. And there doesn’t seem to be any signs of it touch any sort of fire source. If that’s the case, what could the source be? And there’s no signs of it being cut.”

“You’re right.” Twilight muttered as she took a closer look at the cut point. From what Heat Blitz postulated, something was indeed off, “No stray strands, no scorch marks, lack of any stretching, you’re right, Heat Blitz. This doesn’t appear to be natural.”

“But it still begs the question: how was it broken so easily?” he asked, stroking his chin.

“I take it you’re probably one of the top smartest students at CTI?” she asked.

“I’m one of the top 5. Tidal Wave is at #1, I’m ranked 2nd and my brother is ranked 3rd, Shadow Force is 4th and Spark Burst is 5th. But our ranks don’t matter,” Heat replied. “At the end of the day, we’re still good friends. I’m guessing you’re the top student at Canterlot High?” he asked.

“T-That’s true. And… I used to be the top student at Crystal Prep Academy, but I never really had any friends there, except for Cadance, the dean and my brother, Shining Armor,” Twilight explained, making Heat Blitz widen his eyes.

“Did you say you used to go to Crystal Prep?” Heat Blitz asked.

“Yeah, why do you ask?” Twilight asked.

“Our school actually used to compete against them. Or… they used to compete against us, but, not that we’re trying to brag or anything, but any time CTI and CPA competed against each other, our school always handed them the worst defeats. I kept thinking it was unnecessary for us to rub their defeat in their faces and for them to keep coming after us just to strive for the perfect victory,” he said, looking down.

“Wow, that’s actually quite humble.” Twilight remarked.

“Uh… gee, thanks,” Heat Blitz said, his smile returning and a noticeable blush covering his cheeks as he looked away, rubbing the back of his head. “A-Anyways, shall we, umm… head on back to the tents so we can go for a swim?”

“Yeah, sure. Can’t keep the others waiting. And maybe when we’re not so busy, how about we chat a little more?” Twilight asked.

“Y-yeah, sure,” Heat agreed. And so, after their friendly chat, they had back to their tents and change into their swimwear. Then, they join up with the rest of their classmates out by the docks and await further instructions.

“Alrighty, everyone! Here’s what we’re gonna do: 2 students from each school will be selected to volunteer to swim out to the buey I’ve set up. If one school’s 2 students make it back here before the others, they will be the winner! And they will have the option having their school swim in the lake by themselves, or they can share it and swim freely!” Gloriosa exclaimed.

“Ooh! Ooh! Pick me! I’m the fastest swimmer in my school!” Rainbow exclaimed, raising her hand up and bouncing.

“Let me team up with Dash. We’ll beat those boys hands down!” Flare Warden jumped in.

“Well, well, confident,” Spark Burst muttered.

“Yes, quite confident. Say, Heat Blitz. What say you and I team up and show these ladies our top swimming speeds?” the boy with sky blue skin asked.

“I don’t see why not, Tidal Wave,” Heat replied.

“Splendid. Excuse me, Ms. Daisy, was it?” Tidal called out. “My good friend, Heat Blitz and I would like to partake in this swimming race. It’s been a while since we’ve had a decent swim workout, hasn’t it?” he asked Heat.

“Well, it looks like we’ve got our 4 competitors! Alrighty, swimmers, take your positions and everyone stand back and enjoy the show!” Gloriosa said. Now, Rainbow Dash, Flare Warden, Heat Blitz and Tidal Wave got on position at the end of the dock in a springing position. “On your marks… get set… and… GO!”

Right as three of them jumped, Rainbow Dash’s body started to glow and the moment she leaped, she bolted all the way on the other side of the lake. The other three didn’t see it happen and assumed she might have gone underwater. So, they continued to swim out towards the buoy in an effort to gain the lead over each other.

Flare Warden was holding her own against the two boys. Though, the moment they reached the buey, they heard a thud and the sound rushing water. They look and notice Rainbow Dash clinging onto the buey, her eyes twirling around as if she had gotten dizzy.

“What the, how’d she get up there?” Tidal asked.

“I don’t know, but I think we should get her down from there. She might’ve hit her head,” Flare Warden implied. The boys helped Flare get Rainbow off the buey and then swam her back to shore as a group, completely forgetting about the race. Once they got to shore, they helped carry Rainbow out of the water.

“Oh no, what happened? Is she alright?” Fluttershy asked.

“She’s fine, just conked out. Put her in her tent and I’ll get my first aid kit so I can treat that bump on her head,” Tidal said. “Hurricane Breeze, help carry Rainbow Dash to her tent if you can.” he referred to the guy with minty green skin and silver hair.

“Can do,” Hurricane replied. He and Fluttershy carried the knocked out speed diva back to her tent while Tidal went back to his tent. In the midst of the scurry, Gloriosa couldn’t ignore the problem and asked Heat Blitz about it.

“What’s going on, what happened to Rainbow Dash? How did she end up on that buey when she vanished into thin air?” Gloriosa asked.

“I’m not sure I have the answer to that. But there’s no way she would just vanish into thin air just like that. Something’s definitely up, though. First there’s the rope snapping in two due to the unnatural raw strength coming Ground and Applejack, now Rainbow Dash suddenly appeared on the buoy unexpectedly, this all can’t be a coincidence,” Heat Blitz said. “Gloriosa, what do you think’s going on?” he asked, turning to the host.

“I… I’m not so sure, but rest assured, I got this!” Gloriosa said, sweating bullets. "Everything is under control."

Heat Blitz quirked an eyebrow. “Well… okay, if you say so,” he replied. He still felt skeptic about this whole thing being “under control” as Gloriosa insisted, but with a sigh, he let her do her job and walked over to the docks and sat down. Heat Blitz was still wearing nothing but his swim trunks, so he might as well take a little dip while he’s there.

“Everything okay, Heat Blitz?” Twilight asked, walking up to him.

Heat Blitz turned around to see Twilight in her cute bathing suit. From that moment, he felt his face turning red and he quickly turned around. “Eep! Oh, uh… y-yeah, j-just… worried about the others, that’s all,” he stuttered nervously.

"Well, I certainly can see why in light of recent events." Twilight replied, "But, I also sense something else is on your mind."

“U-Uh… l-like what?” he asked, trying to avoid eye contact, acting all shy.

“Well, you’re trying not to look at me in my suit for one thing. Second, I saw how you looked skeptic about Gloriosa having everything under control,” Twilight said.

“Yeah, there was something about what she said. It seemed… like… like she was struggling to keep everyone’s spirit’s up,” Heat Blitz said, his shyness fading and making eye contact with the lavender bookworm. "She has to be hiding something. But what?"

“I’m sure there’s a logical explanation to all of this. But it won’t do any good if we just start worrying about it 24/7. We’ll figure it out eventually. Right now, the water’s good at this time, so how about we just go for a swim?” Twilight implied.

“Yeah… I guess you’re right,” Heat sighed, but kept his smile. “Ladies… first?” he asked as he shoved Twilight into the water. She yelped as she made a big splash. He placed his hand to his mouth to silence his laughter a little.

Twilight re-surfaced and puffed up her cheeks in a pouty manner. “Oh, that’s it,” Twilight said before dragging Heat Blitz into the lake with her, making him yelp. He, too, made a huge splash right before he re-surfaced and shook the water out of his hair. He turned to Twilight, who stuck his tongue out for fun.

Heat Blitz splashed her, thus making her splash back. Pretty soon, a splash war began, filled with smiles and laughs. Pretty soon, everyone else joined in on the fun, including Celestia, Luna and Sombra.

Nightfall arrived in no time and everyone was huddled up at the campfire. Well, everyone except for Hurricane Breeze. He decided to sit by the docks on his own and bask in the melody of the night creatures that roam the forest and lake.

“It’s not every day one gets to enjoy mother nature when it’s this peaceful,” Hurricane said. “This place is so beautiful.”

While he was enjoying the scenery, his ears catch the sound of something jumping into the lake. “Hmm, that’s odd. Someone’s swimming at this hour?” he asked. His eyes scanned the lake as much as he could, but found nothing. “Hmm, maybe it was just someone tossing some rocks into the lake.” Brushing off that thought, he continued basking in the quiet, enjoying the sounds of mother nature once again, closing his eyes.

Just as he opened them, his eyes beheld a sight that gave his heart pause. From the lake emerged the beautiful and ever-so divine Rarity, naked with her wet hair flowing through the air. Droplets flew all around, tiny streams of water flowed down her awe-inspiring form, bountiful chest and a nicely round rear end, it was like staring into heaven itself

But then, Hurricane realized ‘Crap! I shouldn’t be peeking on a lady!’ he thought before turning his gaze into another direction. He hoped that Rarity didn’t catch him looking at her in her present, au natural state. As he backed up, he forgot to watch his footing and fell backwards, hitting his head on a tree. The last thing he saw before blacking out was her gorgeous gaze turning his way.

Once he regained consciousness about 5 minutes later, he checked to see where he was. He was still underneath the tree and to his surprise, Rarity was sitting right next to him, still naked. His heart pounded with great ferocity as he could see more of her gorgeous front. Her breasts and nicely shaven naughty bits, lord help his arousal he could barely contain.

“O-Oh wow. Am I in the presence of a goddess?” he asked himself. Rarity definitely heard him and turned to face him.

“Oh, were you referring to me, darling?” she asked.

“Y-Yeah, and uh… I don’t think we’ve properly met. I… I’m Hurricane Breeze,” he said, trying his hardest not to stare at her body. “I do apologize for catching you… when... you know…”

“Not to worry, darling. I was actually hoping someone would notice me out in the lake. But I never expected you to see me. Oh, where are my manners, I’m Rarity. Or Ms. Rarity, whichever one you prefer,” she said.

“So… you’re not ashamed to show off your body in front of me?” he asked, confused.

“Of course not. But if you could keep a secret…” Rarity said before whispering something in Hurricane’s ear. “I’ve actually been looking forward to… relieve myself when I got here. I trust you might actually feel the same way?” she asked in a sultry tone. Hurricane’s eyes widened and he gulped down a huge lump in his throat.

“U-Uh… I… I’m n-n-not sure how I shou--” he said before Rarity captured his lips. He felt his pants getting tighter and tighter as a wry smirk developed on her lips.

“Come now, darling. There’s no need to be shy. I can certainly tell that you like what you see.” Without warning, Rarity started to rub the bulge of his pants.

“Who… who wouldn’t. Coming across such a… b-b-beautiful woman like you… is c-c-certainly a… a rarity,” he said, unintentionally making a joke. Rarity giggled.

“You’re so charmingly adorable,” she said, pinching his cheeks. “Come on, remove your attire and follow me into the lake. I’ll make sure to take very good care of you.”

Rather than objecting, Hurricane just went along with it. Though he was hesitant at first, he went ahead and stripped himself naked and stood up, then helped Rarity to her feet. She took his hand and guided him out into the lake. The two went out until they both had the water just barely underneath their chest areas.

Rarity was fascinated that despite not having a built figure, he still looked slim and healthy. Even then, she was captivated by the size of his girth.

“Darling, however did you obtain such a girthy length?” Rarity asked, stroking his shaft tenderly with her fingers underwater. “That thing is like a gift.”

“I… I guess… I just like to keep an eye on my figure, but I also tend to get a little stressed from being overworked,” he said, scratching the back of his neck in embarrassment.

“Oh my. So then, all that work has left you so pent up. No need worry, deary. Mama’s going to take very good care of you. And I know of a place where you can release all of that pent-up stress into,” Rarity said, stroking his cock more. Hurricane shuddered and shivered all over. No girl has ever touched him like this before.

His body acted on its own as he groped her heaving bosom, but not too roughly. Rarity yelped in surprise of his sudden moves. When he realized what he was doing he was about to pull away, but Rarity grabbed his wrist and kept his hand placed on her breast.

“My goodness.” Hurricane shuddered as he squeezed her soft mounds, “ They’re so soft like bags of pudding.”

“Would you like to experience the full treatment?” she asked, moving herself closer to him. Hurricane couldn’t stop himself from holding her close to his body. He ignored the throbbing pain and started making out with the fashionista queen while moving his arm underwater and fingering her slit.

Rarity moaned and gave Hurricane’s hardened shaft a few more strokes and would switch to massage his balls, which felt like the size of pro league baseballs. His body tensed as her silky smooth fingers worked their magic.

He couldn’t help himself wanting to lower himself and suck on her neck. This time, it was Rarity’s turn to shudder and moan a little louder. Hurricane didn’t stop fingering her, pumping his fingers like pistons. Her upper legs buckled and couldn’t stand up straight.

“O-Oh my word!” Rarity yelped as her knees grew weaker and weaker with pleasure. “I… I can’t hold it in much longer! I… I’m cumming! I’m cumming!”

“Nnngh! S-So… So am I!” Hurricane grunted. Rarity immediately stopped stroking him just as Hurricane stopped fingering Rarity. She held onto Hurricane, catching her breath and vice versa.

“I… I’m ready, darling. Let’s do it while the night is still young,” she said.

“But… what if you get… you know…?” he asked, worried.

“Not to worry, darling. I’m on the pill. So, there’s nothing you need to fret about.”

“Thank goodness,” he sighed in relief. Taking her in his arms, Hurricane walked out of the water, gently laying Rarity on her back on the grassy shore. Hovering over her, he positioned his throbbing erection at her slit with a lidded smile. “Let me know if this hurts, okay?”

“Of course, darling. Now go on and put it in, please,” she urged him. Hurricane nodded and carefully guided his shaft inside her wanting slit. He slowly entered inside her until he felt himself bottom out. The tip of his cock had reached her womb entrance.

“Are you okay?” he asked.

“Mmm, yes. You just popped my cherry, darling. You can go ahead and move now,” she said, wrapping her legs around his waist.

‘This’ll be one hell of a story to tell the guys if they ever ask what happened to me,’ he thought to himself before finally pumping his cock in and out of her wanting cunny slow and steady at first. Rarity moaned to the incredible size of Hurricane’s girth stretching her womanhood. Losing her virginity never felt so good in her life. She grabbed her breasts and fondled them while Hurricane’s rhythm increased steadily in speed and power.

“Oh god!” Hurricane grunted as he thrusted in and out like mad, “You’re tight, Rarity!”

“And you’re so BIG! Anyone else would’ve been envious of your massive length! I can feel my pussy shaping itself to fit your cock!” she moaned. Hurricane lowered himself and gently rested his body on Rarity’s and mashed his lips with hers, wrapping his arms around her while pounding her mercilessly.

Rarity’s world was turning upside-down. The boy she’s seduced is ravaging her passionately as if she was his wife and they barely even met. Rarity definitely wanted to get to know him more and see what else he has to offer. He was simply too good to be simple friends with benefits.

Hurricane felt her pussy tightening around his shaft. He grunted with each and every movement. At that moment, he knew that he wasn’t going to last much longer at that rate. He separated his lips from Rarity’s in order to warn her

“I… I’m cumming, Rarity!” he said.

“Hurry! Do it inside me! Make me yours, Hurricane! Ravage me until I can’t walk right!” she moaned, nearly screaming. Her nethers clamped around on the fleshy stiffness pumping within her as he throbbed about. Both were at their respective limits as, with a combined song of screams and grunts, their orgasms were let loose. Rarity’s love nectar sprayed Hurricane’s crotch while he flooded her womb with his potent seed in large spurts.

Rarity felt her insides being overfilled with his pent-up orgasm. After Hurricane’s 11th long spurt, he pulled out of Rarity’s used pussy and fell to her side, panting heavily. Rarity placed a hand over her belly, which was bulged out, making the fashionista look 4 months pregnant.

“Oh my. You… you really let out lots inside me. You were absolutely amazing,” Rarity said between breaths.

“I… I gotta ask. Out of all the guys here… why choose me?” Hurricane asked between breaths.

“Well, how can I put this? Because it’s rare to stumble across someone who’s got such a kind heart and soul like you. Most other men I’ve met usually eyeball me all the time. I’m flattered by the attention, but underneath that attention, it’s hard to like a guy who’s only after a woman for nothing more than simple sex. You, on the other hand, you never had any thoughts up until recently to get with me. I can tell that you’re good because you value others besides yourself. How could I not choose you?” Rarity explained.

“Oh, I see. Well, thank you… for… choosing me of all people and… being my first,” he said, blushing and turning away, embarrassed.

“I should thank you, too… for being my first,” Rarity replied, holding his hand. She leaned closer to Hurricane and cuddled with him, then made him face her and planted a soft kiss on the lips.

Meanwhile back at the campfire… “Hey, has anyone seen Rarity?” AJ asked.

“Hurricane Breeze isn’t here either? Where is that ol’ chap?” Tidal asked.

“I think he said something about wanting to listen to the sounds of mother nature out on the docks by himself. He’s probably just enjoying his alone time,” Eternal Flames said.

“And if I recall, Rarity said she wanted some time to herself out by the lake to do a little… *ahem* skinny dipping,” Sunset said.

“Huh? What’s skinny dipping?” Heat Blitz asked, obliviously, tilting his head.

Right away, all the girls blushed at his question, then giggled. Meanwhile, the guys all kept quiet about the subject, turning their heads in different directions.

‘I guess I shouldn’t be surprised he’d say that. He’s such an adorable little cherry,’ Twilight thought to herself.

Chapter 3: Look Beyond What You See

The moon shined brightly in the distance, acting as one of the main sources of light while the campers all sat around the campfire, roasting their marshmallows and making s’mores. A tasty treat that Pinkie Pie herself would instantly devour all by herself, if she wasn’t so giving. But out of all the campers, only one of them didn’t bother eating any s’mores or roasted marshmallows for that matter.

“Hey, Eternal, was it?” Pinkie asked, gaining said camper’s attention. “What’s the matter, don’t you want a s’more? They’re really good.”

“I appreciate the offer, but no thank you. I never developed a sweet tooth,” he said. Pinkie and the others were surprised that he doesn’t like sweets.

“Okay, now I know he’s just saying that to act cool,” Rainbow said, not buying it.

“Rainbow! There’s no need to be so rude about it! If he doesn’t like sweets, then we should respect his decision,” Sunset said. “You’re not mad at her, are you?” she turned her attention to her childhood friend.

“Holding grudges isn’t my style… most of the time,” Eternal said, keeping his straight face.

“Hey, you know what I just realized?” Flare Warden asked. “I’m not sure if this is relevant or means anything, but I don’t think I’ve actually seen him smile for the whole trip.”

“I’m sure he has his reasons. Maybe he’s just overworked from all the studying at school,” Fluttershy said.

“No, it’s not the studying. He’s fluent when it comes to pacing himself,” Tidal Wave said. “The problems he’s facing are more of a personal matter that he’d rather not talk about. I’m not at liberty to speak of it either.”

“Alright, well, changing the subject, what do you guys say we have a little fun scaring each other’s pants off with some good ol’ campfire stories?” Shadow asked.

“What, you must be joking! Don’t you remember what happened last time when you ended up telling some scary story?” Ground Breaker asked. The girls all got curious of what they were talking about.

“What exactly happened? Trixie would like to know,” Trixie butted in.

“Long story short: when he told a scary story, he staged a real-life scare by acting like this mythical killer was real and that he was kidnapped. He left my brother in tears for about 3 whole weeks at the time,” Eternal said, glaring at Shadow.

“Hey, come on. It was just a harmless magic act,” Shadow Force said, raising his hands up defensively and smiling nervously.

“Yeah, and look where that got you that day: A whole week of detention for messing around with school property. It might’ve been harmless to you, but you left my brother in tears and now he’s developed paranoia, thinking all mythical scary creatures are real. As a matter of fact, I think it’s best that I take Heat Blitz for a walk,” Eternal said.

“But if you do that, Shadow’s gonna end up scaring everybody,” Heat Blitz said, worried

“Yeah and give you nightmares,” Eternal replied. Heat Blitz wanted to say “no”, but then Spark Burst intervened.

“Listen, Heat Blitz. If it’s mythical, then the only trace of its existence can only be found in the minds of man. In other words, it’s just a figment of our imagination. Plus, Shadow Force doesn’t have any silly equipment to pull off another staged scare,” Spark Burst said.

“W-Well… okay. Be right back, everybody,” he said, leaving the campfire with his older brother.

“Anyways, Spark Burst, is it?” Rainbow asked the boy with spikey blonde hair.

“That’s my birth name, yes,” Spark confirmed.

“This might be silly of me to ask, but what’s with the eyes?” she asked. Spark Burst’s eyes glared and the other guys widened their eyes when Rainbow brought that up. “Did you put on makeup or are those from someone who gave you some serious shiners?”

Spark’s hands gripped the log he was sitting on and somehow, he ripped some large chunks of wood off of it. “I was born looking like this, okay!” he almost shouted before getting up. “I’m going back to my tent.” he said, walking away.

“Uh, Rainbow Dash. You don’t really know this, but Spark Burst is highly sensitive about the way he looks, especially when it’s about his eyes,” Ground Breaker said. “He’s always been judged by others because of how freaky he looks. They said stuff like “back off freak,” “don’t take my lunch money,” and “go away, you monster!” “He might look scary, but deep down, he’s a nice guy and when people can’t look past him, Spark distances himself from everybody.”

“O-Oops. Guess I might’ve mistepped a bit,” Dash said.

“No, I wouldn’t call asking him more than just what’s with the eyes. It would be best if you didn’t ask about his eyes at all.” Tidal Wave said.

“I guess I should go apologize to him, huh?” Rainbow asked with guilt in her eyes.

“Wait a little bit. Just, be careful about it. Believe it or not, Spark Burst is one of those guys who looks scary, but has his own fragile heart deep down,” Shadow Force added. “Kinda like my little cousin, Heat Blitz.”

“The kid has strong beliefs that problems should be solved without picking fights. He may be stubborn and naive about it, but we know he's a good guy,” Ground added.

“I reckon that he’s a good sort.” Applejack added, “The one way you could actually tell is seeing past his eyes.”

“Yeah, but changing the subject, Eternal has been acting weird since yesterday. He kept mumbling about this girl he knew. Said something about how they knew each other as friends once before,” Shadow added. “I asked him about it last night before we went to bed and he said that you reminded him of that very same girl.” He stated, pointing at Sunset

“I guess it would make sense. At one point, Sunset and Eternal actually knew each other when they were kids. They were like two peas in a pod from what I can tell,” Twilight said.

“Really? Then how come he never told us about it before? I don't think ever mentioning anything to us about a girl he knew since childhood. Or if he did, he’d instantly tell us back then instead of right now,” Shadow said. “Man, this is so confusing.”

“I guess they’re not aware he’s from your world,” Twilight whispered to Sunset.

“Maybe not, but I think it’s best they don’t know about this other world until they’ve seen some sort of proof that Equestria exists,” Sunset whispered back. “By the way, Twilight, how about we take a little walk ourselves?” she asked,

“But… isn’t it getting late? And what about Rarity? She said she’d join us for s’mores but she hasn’t shown up yet,” Twilight pointed out.

“Same with Hurricane.Breeze. He never misses out on a snack,” Ground Breaker added.

“Last time I checked, you’re the one who doesn’t miss out on a snack, Ground Breaker,” said Hurricane’s voice. The others turned to look behind the girls and find that Hurricane had finally arrived and behind him was Rarity.

“Sorry we’re late, dearies, but I had some… *ahem* business to take care of in my tent,” Rarity said, putting her hands behind her back.

“And listening to the sounds of mother nature got so relaxing, I just conked out,” Hurricane said, rubbing the back of his head. “Sorry if we worried you guys.”

“It’s alright. At least we know you’re al--” but before Fluttershy could finish, something caught her nose by surprise. She sniffed and said. “Something smells… odd.”

“What’re y’all talkin’ about?” Applejack asked. She sniffed out the smell, then waved her hand as if she caught the stench of something. “Holy hayseed, what in tarnation is that?”

“I~ honestly don’t know what you’re talking about.” Hurricane said.

“I haven’t the slightest clue either,” Rarity added, smiling nervously.

“Well, whatever it is, it’s definitely coming off of you two, no offense, though,” Tidal said.

“I wonder if there are any showers or waterfalls around here. What do you think, Twilight? Want to go and find a waterfall?” Sunset asked.

“Well, I don’t see why not,” Twilight agreed. “We’ll be right back everyone.” After seeing the two walk off, Hurricane and Rarity left for the showers with their soap and loofahs in hand.

A minute or two into their walk, Twilight and Sunset were getting a little anxious about the environment around them. They knew they weren’t allowed to walk alone in the forest.

“Hey, Sunset. Don’t you find it strange that Rarity and Hurricane both had the exact same strange smell on them?” Twilight asked.

“I have a pretty good idea as to why they smelled funny, but I’ll let the others figure that out on their own,” Sunset said with a sly smirk.

“Well, what they did is anyone’s guess.” Twilight said.

“Twilight, I think you’re just too a-dork-able and innocent for your own good. That musky scent Fluttershy smelt on them were sweat… and sex. They banged each other,” Sunset said. Right there, Twilight’s blushed a deep shade of red. She heard of the concept of ‘sex’ but never studied into it, finding herself too embarrassed to learn about it.

She got so embarrassed that she covered her face. “Now I feel like an idiot,” she said.

“Twilight, don’t get so embarrassed, it happens to almost everyone. One of these, you might end up doing it with someone special,” Sunset said, gently rubbing her shoulder.

“Really not the time, Sunset,” Twilight said, still covering her face. Sunset just laughed it off, adoring Twilight’s cuteness. But just then, a glowing light caught her eye in the distance.

“Hey, Twilight. I think I saw something,” Sunset said, being more serious.

“Saw what?” Twilight asked.

“I’m not sure, but just follow me,” Sunset said. Following the path, the two eventually wandered off the trail, past a wall of trees before they found a small lake with a nearby cave. However, they weren’t alone as they found Eternal Flames and Heat Blitz examining the cave’s entrance. “Hey, it’s Eternal and his brother.”

“What are they doing?”

“I don’t know. But it looks like they’re figuring something out.” Walking up to the two brothers, her footsteps sound caught their attention, shifting their gaze on her, “Hey, what are you two doing here?”

“We’ve just come across this cave.” Heat answered, “I have a feeling something might be down there, judging by the acoustics.”

“And whether it’s just me going crazy or not, but something inside that cave is radiating some kind of force and is trying to pull me in, but not in a physical way,” Eternal added.

“What’s more is that we saw someone coming out of the cave. We weren’t able to identify who came out, but we did find out that it was a woman judging by her figure. We’re not sure what her business is for going into the cave, but Eternal and I have decided during every break starting tomorrow, we’ll drop by here to check on the cave,” Heat Blitz explained.

“So, what do you suppose is going on down there?” Twilight asked.

“That’s what we aim to find out.” Eternal replied, staring at the mouth of the cave, “Whatever is going on down there is anyone’s guess.”

“If my hunch is correct, it might have something to do with what’s been happening at camp. We’ll know what’s inside eventually,” Heat Blitz added.

Twilight, once again, becomes fascinated by Heat Blitz’ deductive skills as was Sunset impressed with Eternal.

“Sounds like you two work pretty well as a team,” Sunset pointed out, “And your deductive skills seem razor sharp.”

“I’ll say. I don’t think I’ve ever come across someone like you at Canterlot High. But uh… would you boys be alright if we helped you find out what’s lurking inside that cave?” Twilight asked.

“Yeah, the more the merrier,” Heat Blitz said, putting on his brightest smile. Twilight didn’t know why, but for some reason, she blinked, then felt her heart skip a beat while her face started blushing a bit.

Sunset instantly knew what was up, but didn’t tell her she likes him. “Something on your mind?” she asked, patting Twilight’s shoulder.

“H-Huh, what?” Twilight replied, snapping out of her trance. “Oh sorry. Anyways, you two want to come back to the campfire? We’re still roasting marshmallows.”

“Like I said, I don’t eat sweets, but it is getting late. So, I’ll tag along with you back to camp,” Eternal replied.

And so, the four of them leave and start heading back on the trail. While walking back, Heat Blitz stated something to his brother. “You know, it wouldn’t hurt to at least have one s’more, or at least one roasted marshmallow. Also, I wish you’d stop it with that tough guy act, or else you might end up without a sweetheart.”

This somehow got Eternal a bit agitated. “With all due respect…” Eternal started, gripping his fists tightly, “...I’m not putting on some tough guy act, I’m just distant. You know that better than anyone else here. Besides, I’ve had my heart broken twice already and I’m not about to go down that road again.”

“Not even for her?” Heat Blitz whispered, gesturing to Sunset. “You gotta come out of your shell one of these days. Just give it time and you’ll open back up, I promise.”

Eternal sighed. “I hope you’re right.”

The next day, after everyone ate their breakfast, they all gathered in front of the cabin where Gloriosa had an announcement to make.

“Alrighty everyone, listen up! For today’s activity, we’re going to do a little sailing out on the lake, so grab a partner and let’s set sail!” she said. However, just as she said that, a limo pulls up onto the camp and out walks a middle-aged businessman in a blue suit with a red necktie that had a money symbol on it.

Instantly, Gloriosa and the CTI students and Principal Sombra gave out nasty glares at the man standing before them. A man known only as Filthy Rich.

Eternal’s fury was burning the hottest, his fist clenched tightly and he was ready to pummel the man into the ground… had it not been for Shadow Force and Ground Breaker intervening.

“Whoa there, chief. Don’t go blowing smoke up your chimney so soon!” Shadow said, blocking his view and gripping his shoulders tightly.

“The last thing we need is a personal war with that man, so calm your shit,” Ground Breaker said, keeping his arms wrapped underneath Eternal’s.

“Let me go… right now! He deserves what’s coming to him!” Eternal replied in a low, menacing tone, turning his nasty glare into the most intimidating death stare.

“Eternal, think white sandy beach! Remember the beach! Remember the beach!” Hurricane intervened, trying to calm him down.

Sunset looked at Eternal and gasped at how much his attitude changed just from seeing Filthy. “Heavens to Celestia, what’s wrong with him,” she asked herself. She ran over to him to see what she can do.

“Eternal, look at me! Look at me,” Sunset said, grabbing his cheeks. His eyes dart from Filthy to Sunset rapidly, as if trying to decide who to look at. Eventually… he locked his eyes on Sunset and blinked a couple of times, his death stare vanishing.

In that moment… Eternal’s mind floods with more memories of his past. The more he gazed into her eyes, the more of his memories of her he instantly regains and his headache becomes out of control and he drops to his knees, gripping his head, grunting.

“Eternal?!” Sunset rushed to his side, “Are you okay?!” Eternal collapses to the ground as his headache gets worse.

A minute later, his grip on his head loosened up and he slowly rises back up to his feet. “I’m fine, but… I’d like to have a word with Sunset, if you guys don’t mind,” he said, in a calm, low voice.

“Uh, dude, you feeling alright?” Shadow asked.

Just then, “Eternal!” shouted Celestia. She wrapped him in a very soft and tender hug, worried for his well-being. “Are you alright, sweetie, is everything okay?”

“I’m… fine. I just had a nasty headache,” Eternal said before wrapping one of his arms around Celestia, pulling her into a closer. “Rest assured, I’m perfectly fine now.”

“Don’t scare me like that. You really had me worried,” Celestia said before pulling away. “Let me know if you have another headache, okay?”

“I will… thanks again…” Eternal nodded. Celestia smiled and returned with the others just as Filthy was about to leave. “...mother.” Eternal finished silently to himself before turning his attention back to Sunset. “Can we talk, there’s something I gotta tell you.”

“Umm… sure, I guess,” Sunset said. She got curious of what he wanted to talk about and followed him into his tent. They both sat down on his bed and then… it happened.

“Sunset Shimmer, I don’t know how else to say this, but… did you used to be a filly?” Eternal asked, in which Sunset gasped.

“You mean you remember me?” Sunset asked. Eternal nodded. “Y-Yeah, I actually was a filly. I take it you’re from the pony world, right?”

“I didn’t want to say it because people would think I’m crazy. Sunset, how long have you been in this world?” Eternal asked.

“Longer than you might think. I… wasn’t always the kindest girl here. I was… a bit of a bully at my school, always making people feel scared of me. It took some time and a lot of help from my new friends for me to realize that what I was doing was wrong. Back then, things got so bad, I ended up, I ended up stealing a crown from this princess and turned into a raging she-demon. Just thinking about it makes me sick to my stomach.” she explained.

“Why do all that stuff?” Eternal asked.

“I had reasons that made sense at the time. I thought I was proving to my teacher that I was worthy enough to become a princess myself,” Sunset said. “I was so broken up about not achieving my dream that I lost sight of what was truly important. And at one point, I almost forgot about you. But after my defeat at the Fall Formal and getting back to my house, I spent the night scolding myself. I was a mean and nasty bitch.”

“It was that bad, huh?” Eternal asked. Sunset nodded, looking down. “So then, when you almost forgot about me, what made you remember?”

“Well… I… do you remember that locket we made together in preschool?” Sunset asked. Eternal nodded. “I took it with me when I got accepted into Celestia’s gifted school for unicorns. I still have it with me because deep down… I had this feeling I’d be able to see you one day. It looks like I was right. But that just makes me wonder one thing: how did you end up here?”

“I was leaving my village because my father turned his back on me, forcing me to find a mare to settle down with. It all happened when grandpa Flame Blast died… no… he was murdered. And I still have this burning desire to find his killer and make them pay. During my travel across the land, this weird hole opened up underneath my hooves and I ended up falling into this strange world where I became this hairless monkey you already know as a human,” Eternal said.

“A portal? How did that happen?” Sunset asked.

“I don’t know, all I can say is that in the split second, I saw what looked like students running in panic from this girl who was opening cracks around this school, going on and on about wanting to rule both worlds,” Eternal said.

Sunset froze the moment she found out. “Eternal… I think you might’ve ended up here because of Midnight Sparkle. She’s the reason why you’re stuck here,” Sunset said, calming down.

“Well, at least now I know what happened. I’m not exactly to fond of what you became when you first arrived here, but I’m glad to know you were reformed and became the same old friend I knew when I was colt. You have no idea how long I’ve waited to see you again,” Eternal’s lips almost started to form a smile. Sunset always loved to see her old friend smile back in their childhood and she hoped he would smile again right now.

Sadly, the moment was interrupted by the sound of something crashing. “What was that?” Sunset asked, looking out the tent.

“Come on, let’s find out,” Eternal said, grabbing her hand. He lead Sunset outside and ran over to the docks where the sailboat Trixie and Shadow rode on had crashed onto the docks. “Great balls of fire, what the hell happened here?”

“How should Trixie know?” Trixie asked in her usual 3rd person.

“One minute we’re trying to catch some wind into our sail, then the next thing we know, WOOSH, it picks up at the last minute and we end up crash-landing,” Shadow added.

“Oh dear, now we don’t have a runway for the fashion show!” Rarity said.

“Easy Rarity. Maybe if we work together, we can fix it,” Hurricane Breeze said.

“But how are we gonna fix it without any tools?” Applejack asked.

“I brought some tools along for the trip just in case of an emergency,” Ground Breaker said. “But it’s not gonna be enough to fix this whole dock. Gloriosa, do you have any spare tools in the cabin we can use?”

“Absolutely. I’ve got this!” Gloriosa said, acting all chipper and cheerful. Celestia, Luna and Sombra followed her inside the cabin in case she needed some help.

Meanwhile, Twilight gets a little distracted as she walked on the docks, unsure if this all had something to do with what’s in the cave or if this was Midnight Sparkle’s doing. While she’s distracted, she trips and falls forward, only to get caught by Heat Blitz.

“Whoa! Twilight, are you alright?” he asked, concerned.

“I-I’m okay.” Twilight answered, a little shaken up. Heat Blitz helps Twilight regain her balance and stands her back up. Just then, Twilight’s eyes met with his for a few brief moments until they realized what they were doing. She was especially embarrassed when she felt his hands still on her hips. They blushed intensely and broke away.

“S-S-Sorry, I-I-I didn’t mean to… y-you know,” Heat Blitz said, rubbing the back of his head, turning away in embarrassment.

“N-No, don’t worry about it. I-It wasn’t your fault,” Twilight insisted, unable to look at him, still blushing rose red.

“Looks like cupid’s arrow has struck when we all least expected it,” Spark Burst said, unfazed and not caring about the sight he was beholding.

“Oh, come on, Spark Burst. Surely you must be a little bit happy with them,” Hurricane said.

“Who said I wasn’t happy with them. I just have a thing against pursuing my special someone. I’m not like you or the other guys here,” Spark said, turning around. “I’m gonna go change into my swim trunks and head out into the forest. Don’t bother me.” And so Spark Burst leaves the group to do his usual thing, but Rainbow Dash wasn’t gonna let him get away, nor was she gonna follow him too early.

“Hey, you guys,” Rainbow said, getting the CTI students’ attention. “Tell me, why does he go off in the forest?”

“There’s a waterfall in there somewhere. Spark Burst likes to sit underneath them. He says it’s helps calm him down and meditate if he’s ever upset or pissed off,” Shadow said.

“Why do you ask?” Hurricane asked.

“It’s rather odd but- alright.” Rainbow stammered, ‘But, why does he act that way?”

“Because he’s constantly judged by his looks. He claims he’s not “good-looking” enough to even be dating material,” Eternal said. “He’s never known what it’s like to have someone in his life who loves him for who he is, other than his mother. We made him a part of our group because I knew deep down he’s both wise and has a good heart. Yes, he’s harsh, but he’s got a sensitive side he doesn’t like to show.”

“So, that explains things.” Rainbow mused, “A tough guy that has an inner soft side.”

“That’s an astute observation.” Hurricane replied.

“Well, if that’s the case. I think I know how to fix that attitude of his,” Rainbow said, about to dash off. But then…

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Spark is still a little upset from last night,” Ground said.

“All the more reason why I should make it up to him. It’s my fault the guy’s in a bad mood,” Rainbow insisted before she ran off into the forest after Spark.

“We should probably go in after her,” Shadow said.

“No, don’t worry ‘bout it, sugarcube. She might let her feet do the talkin’, but she’s strong enough to handle herself,” Applejack said.

“I hope you’re right, Applejack. Once he’s been set off, he won’t let his guard down easily.” Ground Breaker said.

Pressing on ahead, Rainbow Dash navigated through the forest aimlessly. She wanted to find Spark and apologize to him for what she said to him. She felt really bad about it and wasn’t gonna rest until Spark knew she was absolutely sorry.

Eventually, she found him over by this waterfall. She saw him taking off his shirt and his footwear before stepping into the small river and sat down underneath the waterfall in a meditation pose. She got a good look what she saw.

For a guy like Spark Burst who doesn’t have that much muscle and strange eyes, he still had an impressive 6-pack. She just watched him from a distance from behind a tree.

“Hey uhhh, Spark,” Rainbow cautiously approached, “are you alright?”

His eyes opened up and gaze at Rainbow Dash. “I’m fine. Why’d you follow me here?”

“Because I wanted to tell you I’m sorry for what I said yesterday,” Rainbow said.

“That’s nice to hear,” Spark said, turning his gaze away from her and just stared at the river.

“So… you’re not mad anymore?” Rainbow asked.

“Grudges don’t suit me. Too unhealthy.”

“Look, Spark, I realized what I asked you was out of line, but if you can just give me a chance, I want to make things right between us, maybe become good friends… possibly more than that,” Rainbow said. Spark Burst didn’t reply and just sat there under the waterfall. “Come on, Spark. I’ll do anything to make you feel better. Anything at all.”

“You’ve shown your sincerity already. That’s good enough,” he insisted. But Rainbow wouldn’t give up and so she did the next best thing: taking off her shirt and shorts to reveal her crimson red bikini underneath and joined him under the waterfall.

“Why are you…?” Spark asked, looking at her directly in the eyes. Just then, he realized just how beautiful she looks and his heart began to race. ‘Damn it, why did I have to get struck by cupid’s arrow?’ he thought before leaning in and kissing her on the lips.

“Whoa, that was pretty bold of you.”

“I… couldn’t stop myself. You just looked… too beautiful for me to not kiss you,” Spark said, looking down, trying to hide his blush.

“Uhhhh- you’re really making me blush, ya know.”

“That so? I… apologize. I’ve never been in a relationship before, so I don’t know what to do other than give compliments.”

“Well then, how about I show you how? You seem like a pretty cool guy. Sure, ya might be a philosopher geek, but then again, who doesn’t love a philosopher? Here, watch this.”

Rainbow Dash sat herself down right on Spark’s lap and cupped his cheeks. “Now usually, couples don’t get this intimate, unless they’re either drunk or if it’s…” she refrained herself from barfing at what she says next, “...love at first sight. Now, follow my lead.” Rainbow then plunged her lips right onto Spark’s and thrusted her tongue inside. Spark did the same thing and soon the two were locked in a passionate make-out session.

Her hands caressed his body and Spark Burst did the same thing. His hands traveled all over Dashie’s back and then surprisingly went down towards her butt. There, he gave her ass cheeks a good squeeze, making her jump and break the kiss.

“U-Uh, sorry,” Spark said, ashamed.

“Don’t be sorry. Sometimes, girls like it when you touch their butt. Just don’t do it where people can see you, there might also be kids nearby. Now then… how about we move on…” Rainbow reached behind her back and untied her bikini, letting the top fall off. She caught it and tossed it onto the grass. “...by having you suck these bad girls.”

Rainbow Dash cupped her breasts, teasing Spark. She had a sizeable CC-cup. Not too big, not too small, just right. Spark couldn’t stop blushing from looking at her impressive bust. He acted as he was told and started sucking on one of her breast nipples.

Their bodies were struck by a tingling sensation they never felt before. Spark’s body felt like a heavy weight was being lifted off of him and Rainbow’s body was growing weak from the waves of blissful pleasure coursing through her. She never had any guy or girl for that matter play with her body like this before. She grinded her hips on his lap, further tightening his bulge. Every pass caused her panties to become damp with her arousal juices. The sweet release of lust was on their doorstep.

“Ow oh,” Spark grunted, “Rainbow, this is actually starting to hurt now.”

Rainbow quickly got off his lap. “Then how about I make it better?” she asked. Rainbow reached down and grabbed Spark’s swim trunks and helped him take them off. His erect shaft popped out from underneath the confinements and stood tall and proud. “Damn, that’s one big dick you’ve got there.” she said, impressed.

“Is that… a good thing?” Spark asked.

“Of course it is.” Rainbow said with a smile, “It’s more of you to enjoy.”

And just like that… Spark Burst finally cracked a smile. Dashie chuckled at how adorable she thought he looked before grabbing his stiff rod and stroked it. Spark groaned as she worked her magic fingers on him. Rainbow kept smiling at him as she stroked him. Spark’s groaning grew even louder when she stroked him faster.

“Oh my fucking god!” Spark groaned, arching his back, “Can’t describe how this feels!”

“What you’re feeling is a good thing.” Rainbow sang with tinge of sweetness, “Then again, it’s about to get a whole lot better.”

“H-How?”

Before Spark Burst knew it, the massive length of his member was being swallowed by Rainbow Dash’s lips. Slick, moist, and warm, it made his eyes roll to the back of head. Dash began to suck on his length and bob her head up and down.

Spark could only let out heavy breaths and predatorial growls. Holding onto the nearby boulders on each side of the rock he was sitting on, he gripped them tightly as Dash continued sucking him off as if it was a popsicle. He never felt anything like it before but something sparked within him, something instinctual. He loved every moment of her lips massaging his knob. If it was what heaven felt like, he didn’t want to leave.

“Oh uhhh, Rainbow?” Spark groaned, “I feel something coming out!”

Rainbow didn’t stop and instead sped up her bobbing and sucked on him harder. Spark tightened his eyes shut and let out a loud groan, pumping strings of his cum down her throat. Rainbow chugged down every drop that spurted inside of her. And when he had calmed down, she let go of him and pulled away from his cock.

“Alright, stud, the choice is yours,” Rainbow said. She turned herself around and bent over. “You wanna take me in the ass? Or do ya want to put it in my cave of awesomeness?” Rainbow spread open her pussy.

“I… gee, that’s a hard one. What if I end up getting you pregnant? I’m not sure if I’m even ready to… you know,” Spark said.

“Relax, Spark. No one said ya had to finish in my pussy. You could always finish it up in my ass. I always wanted to experience getting filled up in there. So what do you say?” she asked.

Spark Burst felt a little more at ease and grabbed Dash’s rear and his shaft, guiding it inside her dripping cave, slowly penetrating her. Before they knew it, he had broke her hymen, ending their virginities forever. Rainbow grunted in pain and pleasure, not caring about the pain.

“Oh yeah! That’s the spot! Go on ahead fuck me like a piston!” she urged with a sultry growl. Spark Burst gave her what she wanted and rammed his dick in and out of her cunt. Rainbow was in heaven. She was right to choose Spark Burst as her first. She got more turned on when he gave out these predatorial growls and grunts as he fucked her hard.

Spark Burst was completely overtaken by his lust and didn’t care about anything else. All he wanted was to give it to Rainbow Dash good. He smacked her in the ass a few times and even reached underneath her to play with her breasts. The more rough he got with her, the more wet and slippery her pussy got. But she also got even tighter, constricting his massive length.

“Oh fuck! Yes! Pump it in harder, you sexy beast!” she moaned. Spark Burst’s breaths got heavy and his growling got more ferocious. He was just about ready to blow again, but he remembered what she said earlier and pulled out of her pussy. He spread her ass cheeks and guided his cock inside her ass slowly. But thanks to the lube from her pussy juices, he slid in with ease. “Mmmmph! Damn, my ass is being spread from the inside! You’re too fucking big!”

This only fueled his ego and made him fuck her hard once more. Rainbow couldn’t do anything except stick her tongue out, shoot her eyes up and let out throaty moans. She felt her climax getting closer each time Spark’s cock plunged deeper inside her. Before long, she couldn’t keep it in much longer and finally climaxed all over his balls.

Spark reached his limit and shot his head up, letting out a ferocious roar, pumping his jizz deep inside her anal cave. Rainbow Dash moaned at the top of her lungs as she was being filled to the brim. Soon, neither of them could keep their balance as Rainbow collapsed on her hands and knees. Spark Burst rested his body on top of hers until his climax ended. After that, he pulled out of her ass and sat her in the water with her, caressing her naked figure.

“Oh wow, that felt really good,” Rainbow said between breaths.

“My… my first time… never felt… so good,” Spark panted.

“Hey, Sparky. You don’t mind if I call you that, do you?” Dash asked.

“Not at all,” Spark replied with relaxed smile.

“Listen, I really am sorry for what I said last night. I didn’t know all that much about you and I didn’t know you had a personal issue with you eyes and social skills. If I had known earlier, then I wouldn’t have offended you. Can you ever forgive me?” she asked.

“Dashie, if… you’re okay with that… as I said before, grudges are not meant to be held and the sincerity in your voice was proof enough that you truly regretted your choice of words. So yes, I forgive you,” Spark explained.

Rainbow giggled. “Come here, you,” she then grabbed Spark Bursts neck and planted her lips on his, but didn’t thrust her tongue in. Spark returned the kiss and held Dash gently as they embraced their newfound relationship.

Chapter 4: Bonds

Some time had gone by and everyone had helped put together everything for rock climbing. Rarity and Applejack were partnered up to race against Eternal and Heat Blitz. Rarity and Heat Blitz were the climbers and Eternal and Applejack were the supporters, making sure their partners would make it to the ground safely.

“Alrighty, climbers! On your mark… get set…” Gloriosa stopped and grabbed her whistle, blowing it, signaling the start of the climb. Rarity started off fair, but when Heat Blitz climbed up two mere steps, he looked up and felt his heart race and clung to the fake rock.

“Heat Blitz, don’t be scared. I know you’re scared of heights, but this isn’t like real rock-climbing like the ones you see on TV. Plus, if even if you lose your grip here, I’ll be able to catch you in no time flat,” Eternal said calmly.

“Easy for you to say! You’re used to high places!” Heat Blitz said.

“So are you, Heat Blitz. We sleep in a dorm room back at school on the 3rd floor. You sleep next to the window, for crying out loud,” Eternal said, squeezing the bridge above his nose. “This shouldn’t be any different.”

“Yeah, but I usually looked at the sky whenever I wake up or am about to fall asleep!” Heat Blitz, said, tightening his eyes shut.

“You’ll never be able to conquer your fears if you don’t man up and face ‘em head on.”

“And how am I supposed to do that?”

“Hmm… you could always try thinking about the one thing that makes you happy and all the benefits that it possesses, anything at all,” Eternal said. Heat Blitz slowly opened his eyes and this time, he didn’t stare up above or down below. Slowly and shakingly, he climbed his way up to the top. He breathed in and out, talking to himself.

“Okay… think positive… think positive. Don’t be scared,” Heat Blitz said. Rarity was almost at the top of the rock. But then, she lost her grip on one of the edges and started tangling and shrieked a bit in terror.

“H-Help! Oh dear!” Rarity said. Heat Blitz got worried and climbed as fast as he could to go and help Rarity.

“Hang on, help is on the way!” he said.

“No worries, Rarity! Ah gotcha,” AJ said.

AJ attempted to lightly pull on the rope, but when she did, Rarity flung all the way up and almost hit the bell. “HEAVENS ABOVE!!!” Rarity shrieked. Applejack’s confused expression made it clear she didn’t pull on it that hard. And when she loosened her grip a little too much, Rarity began to fall straight down, screaming.

“RARITY!!!” Heat Blitz shouted, reaching out to grab her. Applejack tightened her grip on the rope, thus Rarity stopped just before she hit the ground.

“APPLEJACK, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING?!” Rarity asked, scared out of her wits. As the girls kept arguing, Eternal let down Heat Blitz gently and then the two approached the girls to calm them down.

“Rarity, Ah swear! Ah didn’t pull on the rope that hard. Here, let me help you,” AJ said.

“No! I think you helped quite ENOUGH!” Rarity said, putting her hands in front of AJ. Then, all of a sudden, this magic diamond appeared in front of her and pushed Applejack away from her, then heard a splashing sound afterwards.

“Whoa!” Eternal said.

“Did she just…?” Heat asked, dumbfounded. While still trying to process what had happened, Applejack came back, completely soaked to the bone.

“Oh dear, Applejack. I’m so sorry… I think. Did I do… whatever that was?” Rarity asked.

“If I didn’t see it with my own two eyes, I wouldn’t believe it,” Celestia said.

“Same here. We’d better go and get Applejack some towels,” Sunset said.

“I’ll tag along with you. I’ve got a really bad feeling something else is about to happen,” Twilight said, a bit worried. Sunset allowed her to come along and left. Meanwhile, Celestia, Luna, and Sombra were left with trying to piece together what just happened.

“You don’t think this has to do with Equestrian magic, do you sis?” Celestia asked.

“It is possible. This was supposed to be a fun-filled week getaway from the city life and Equestrian magic, but it seems that it can be found almost anywhere,” Luna replied.

“Equestrian magic? What on earth are you talking about?” Sombra asked.

“Sombra, dear. I’m not sure if you’re aware of what’s happened at Canterlot High, but if not, I’ll gladly explain it to you in private,” Luna said. “Sister, this might take a while.”

“Take as long as you need. I’ll stay here and look after the students,” Celestia said calmly. Luna nodded and left with Sombra. Meanwhile, Celestia can tell her sons were getting curious about what they witnessed as well. “Boys?”

“Hmm?” Heat Blitz asked, turning towards his mother.

“Why don’t you two help out with getting the grilling equipment in place. I need to have a little talk with the others.”

“Well… okay. After all, Eternal knows how to cook a lean, mean barbeque. Right, bro?” Heat Blitz asked.

“I suppose it wouldn’t be so bad to get lunch started. Come along,” Eternal said. Heat followed him to go grab the grill. Suddenly...

*BOOM*

The ground beneath their feet rumbled and the source of the explosion came from inside the cabin where Pinkie Pie was making cookies. Eternal and Heat Blitz rushed in and found everything in the cabin completely covered in cookie dough. Gloriosa, Twilight and Sunset all rushed inside to see what had happened.

“Pinkie!” Twilight shouted and coughing, “Are you alright? What happened?!”

“Funny thing.” Pinkie Pie sang as she wiped some dough from her eyes. “I was just making some delicious cookies and coating them in sugary sprinkles when all of a sudden, POOF! Cookie dough shot everywhere. And it happened just as I did this,” Pinkie grabbed a handful of colorful sugar and spread it on the dough, making it explode once again. This time, some of the dough got in Eternal’s face. “Oopsies, sorry.”

Eternal merely wiped the dough off his face and got a paper towel to dry off his hands. “A little dough to the face never hurt anybody, but we’d better get this stuff cleaned up if we ever want to get lunch started,” Eternal said.

“Not to worry, I’ve got this,” Gloriosa sang.

“Wait, Gloriosa!” Heat said. “What do you say I help you clean this place up? You must be constantly exhausted having to do things on your own.”

“Aww, well isn’t that sweet. But I don’t want you and anyone else to be torn away from having the best vacation trip,” Gloriosa said, patting him on the head.

“But it’s not a vacation if we’re leaving you out of all the fun. Come on, what do you say?” though, she admired his devotion, Gloriosa still thought it’d be best to fix this mess on her own. But then…

“There’s no use in talking it out of him. Once he has his mind set on something, he won’t take no for an answer. Think about it, at least with him helping you, you’ll get twice the work done,” Eternal said.

“Oh… alright, you win,” Gloriosa said with a sad smile in defeat. With their argument settled, Gloriosa and Heat Blitz worked together to clean up the cabin while Pinkie Pie resumed baking her cookies. Eternal took this time to get the grill all set up outside.

While he was getting heating it up, Flare Warden walked up to Eternal. “Hey, I didn’t know you had cooking skills. Were you self-taught?” she asked.

“No, Hurricane Breeze taught me. He’s what we call the S-class chef of the group. He can even make regular, common meals taste S-class. Why do you ask?” Eternal asked.

“I dunno, I was thinking maybe if you’re not so busy you could… teach me? I’m kinda terrible when it comes to cooking,” Flare said, scratching the back of her head in embarrassment.

“Sure, it’s not all that hard once you get the gist of it down,” Eternal nodded.

“Great. And… one other thing…” Flare said. “That buddy of yours, Tidal Wave, does he have anyone… special in his life?”

“No, not yet. But if you’re growing attached to him, you can always go and talk to him. He’s a very open-minded individual,” Eternal said.

“Really?” Flare asked. Eternal nodded as the fire started on the grill. “Thanks, you’re a big help.” After their talk, Flare left to tend to her business.

Lunchtime had gone by pretty smoothly and everyone was finally full, compliments of Eternal’s tasty barbeque meals and Pinkie’s yummy cookies. And with everyone fueled up, the CTI students all helped set up their karaoke machine with the help of Gloriosa.

And as a complimentary treat, everyone allowed their gracious host and proud owner of the camp to sing first.

Everyone’s minds were blown away from the song Gloriosa sang and even more so how she blew the roof off. Everyone danced to the beat, minus a certain long, red-haired boy. Eternal just stood there in the crowd with his arms crossed and his eyes wide open from shock and awe.

Soon, she finishes her song and gets a standing ovation. Gloriosa took a bow and put the mic back up to her lips. “Thank you, everyone. You’re too kind. Now then, who here has a song they’d like to sing?” she asked.

“U-Uh, would it be okay if… I could, you know… sing a song?” Fluttershy asked quietly.

“Oh, I agree. Let’s have Fluttershy sing. She has a simply divine, angelic voice,” Rarity said.

“Alrighty then. Come on up here and choose a song that you like,” Gloriosa said. She then handed Fluttershy the mic before stepping off the stage. Fluttershy scrolled through the songs and picked the one she liked. Everyone watched as she began singing and put on big smiles.

All around, there was a big wave of cheers, catching Fluttershy off guard. Yet, the message was clear to her and she smiled for a job well done. Though nervous at first, she held her own and gave it her best shot and the crowd went wild.

Next one up to the mic was Heat Blitz. No one, except the CTI students, knew what to expect from him, but something told the CHS students they were in for a big surprise. And boy, were they right about that. Once he chose his song, he took singing to a whole other level.

Every time he got to the romance parts, he seemed to be gesturing to Twilight without even knowing that he was flirting. The CTI students were way too busy singing along in the chorus parts to notice that Twilight was blushing. It wasn’t long before everyone else joined in with Heat Blitz during the last part of the song.

The moment the song concluded, everyone cheered like they witnessed a one-man concert. “Thanks, everyone. I’m glad you liked my song. So, which one of you fellow campers is ready to take a shot at this?” Heat Blitz asked.

"Hand me the mic. I know just the right song," Sunset called out. Heat Blitz gladly handed Sunset the mic and stepped off of the stage. Meanwhile, Sunset stepped up to the stage and already received cheers from her classmates and staff members. Everyone can already tell she was going to raise the roof in this place.

After selecting her song, she took off like there was tomorrow. Everyone clapped even as Sunset continued to sing her amazing melody. Eternal was also impressed by her incredible singing abilities.

When her song finally finished, Eternal rose up and cheered for her the most. Sunset winked at him, thus causing him to blush and turn away, scratching the back of his head. It made her giggle, knowing he had a soft side.

'Aww. what a cute expression,' she thought to herself. Sunset stepped off the stage and watched all of her friends get on the stage, one by one and sing their songs, including the Principal and Vice Principal. Everyone present gave their best shot at singing what song came to mind. It didn’t matter how well they did but rather that they had a good time singing. Yet, it was amusing to the CHS students to see their normally stoic Vice Principal sing so beautifully.

Then finally... there was one person left. All eyes turned to a certain long, red-haired silent boy. Deciding to give them what they want, he stepped up to the stage and grabbed the mic. "Alrighty, let's see what we got here," he said, strolling through the songs. Soon, he found what he was looking for and started singing. As deep and dark as this song was, Eternal showed he wasn't just all muscle and scary looks.

After his song ended, everyone stood in shock. Eternal thought he might've flopped his song, so he closed his eyes and brushed it off as bad singing. After putting the mic away and stepping off, that's when he got the applause he was looking for. He opened his eyes in surprise, then closed his eyes and walked away. He threw his arm up and made a peace sign.

"Gee, is he really that sore about the late applause?" Rainbow asked.

"He can take a little harsh criticism with a grain of rice, but it did crash down on him like a ton of bricks because he thought he was off with his singing," Shadow said.

"I hope he ain't in a mopey mood," Applejack said.

"If he is, he'll probably head on over to a quiet place to relax," Ground Breaker said.

"Well, where would he be, though?" Applejack asked back.

"My guess is... by the lake. He'll probably stare at his reflection in the water or at the sky," Ground said.

"If you want my honest opinion, I'd say he's always hanging by himself a little too much. We've been with him for a long time now, but I think he needs a really close friend by his side," Hurricane Breeze said.

"Maybe I can do something about it," Sunset said. "I know it's a bit of a stretch and I never got to spend most of my time with him, but I was his very first friend during childhood. I owe him that much after missing out on what he's been doing for so long."

"Normally, I'd crack a joke about you two lovebirds, but I'm just gonna shut up," Shadow said with a relaxed smile, resting his arms behind his back.

Sunset rolled her eyes and just followed Eternal. She quickly found her old friend sitting by the edge of the lake with his legs dipped into the water. Sunset breathed in and exhaled as she walked over and sat down next to him. In order to break the ice, she started a conversation.

“Hey Eternal,” Sunset slowly approached him, “are you uhhh… alright?”

"Never been better. Just needed to cool off, that's all,," he replied, gazing at the sky.

"Are you still upset from the delayed cheers?"

"If I was, I'd be in my tent with the entrance zipped up. It also gives me some time to think about some stuff that's gotten my mind all scrambled."

'Nice to know he's not holding a grudge. Maybe I should change the subject' she thought. "Can I ask you something?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"Well, when we first came here and when Celestia ran up to give you a hug, you looked like you were confused. But that's not what puzzles me. Is there... anything about your real mother that you might know about?"

"The only thing I can remember was her silhouette. She looked tall... and graceful... and her mane, well... it looked like it was blowing in the wind, but the funny thing is... there was no breeze whatsoever."

Sunset blinked as her suspicions were confirmed. 'I was right from the beginning. There's no doubt he's her son.' "Maybe, one of these days... I can take you to where she is. I know a way for you to return back home so you can meet her and maybe... stay with her." Sunset's voice became sad in a matter of seconds when she realized she found him a way back to Equestria. But then...

"I'll take you up on your offer to see her, but I'd rather stay here. Due to recent events that have come to my attention, I'm staying in this world," Eternal said. "Besides... I haven't seen you in about 10 years. And we've got a lot of catching up to do."

Eternal gently placed his hand on Sunset’s shoulder, patting it as he hummed silently. The warm feeling had something of an effect on her as she began to feel relaxed. It made her feel happy to be touched by her old friend she missed from so long ago. Scooching closer to him, Sunset began nuzzling her cheek into Eternal’s shoulder, humming softly as fond memories started coming back. She dearly missed her friend, the one she knew since they were five.

*Flashback*

It was back at their village and on that day, Sunset was fetching some fresh water, minding her own business and thinking about getting into a school for gifted unicorns. Just as she was about to fill up the jug with water, young Eternal Flames caught her attention through the water's reflexion as he was up in a tree. She can remember how curious Eternal looked when he saw her for the first time. He got so distracted by her that he made the branch he was standing on snap and fell off the tree, splashing into the water.

It was so cute and funny, she giggled. Eternal thought he was gonna get in trouble and jumped out of the water and hid behind some bushes. Sunset wanted to find a way to get him out of his hiding place, so she hummed a tune while getting the water and then headed back to her home. Her plan worked and saw Eternal following her.

Sunset's next plan was to lure him closer to her and she did so by "accidentally" losing her magic grip on the jug, thus causing it to fall and roll towards Eternal. The plan went along far too easy and he refilled it, then followed her. He hesitated halfway and looked behind him. Sunset looked in the same direction and noticed his father and grandfather. His father looked like he wanted him to come back, but his grandfather urged him to go ahead and join her.

When he looked back at her, Sunset winked at him and gave him the most adorable smile. With a shrug, Eternal went with it and followed her the rest of the way. Needless to say, Sunset's parents had different points of view on her bringing the young colt to their house. Her own dad, like most fathers, got all defensive and tried to protect his "precious little princess" as he put it. But her mom was overjoyed to see that she made friends with "the young prince," but Sunset didn't get what she meant by that at the time. All that mattered to her was finally having a new friend to play with.

*Back to present day*

Those memories brought her so much joy and happiness. Even back then when she was a sheltered genius, even for a filly, Eternal was the first to recognize her as a friend when no other pony would, besides her parents. Approaching her that day made the world to her, dispelled any notion that she was alone. Pulling him into a hug, she took in more of his body warmth as Eternal found him enjoying a familiar embrace.

"I remember the last time we hugged like this. You left to attend this gifted school for unicorns after you got your acceptance letter," Eternal said, stroking Sunset's cheek with his thumb. "But I am curious about one thing. What was it like at this school?"

"It'd definitely give your mind a good workout if you were accepted," Sunset replied. "My head was killing me from all of those spells and reading so many books. Sadly I didn't earn the right to be a princess and... well, you know what happened after that."

"Yet you changed your evil ways. That's something you should feel proud of, especially now that you've got friends by your side," Eternal said.

"I guess you're right. Anyways, as much as I'd love to sit here all day with you, we should get back to the camp. They're probably wondering where we are," Sunset said.

All gathered around a campfire, everyone had their marshmallows on sticks in hand. Hovering them over the flames, they couldn't wait to eat them.

"Hey, who's up for a scary story? I got a hell of a story that'll really wet your pants!" Shadow said with a sly grin.

"You can try, but not a lot of horror stories are real," Sunset chuckled.

"Oh, trust me. This one is as real as it gets," Shadow insisted before clearing his throat. "Basically, this is the tale about a forest deity who lives in this very forest. The deity goes by the name of... Gaia Everfree. She guards the forest from anyone that trespasses on her sacred land by scaring them off with threats of dragging them underground and using their bodies as nutrients to feed the trees." Shadow said in a deep, ominous voice.

No one seemed scared by this, except for Heat Blitz. His whole face was turning pale. "One day, a happy couple built a lodge here so they could one day turn this into a camping resort. Gaia was infuriated and confronted the couple, telling them to leave or face her eternal wrath. The couple said they meant no harm and wanted to share the camp with travelers and in return, they wouldn't set foot into her forest. Gaia, though hesitant at first, agreed to the terms and told them she'd be back to reclaim her land. But didn't say when she'd return." Shadow continued.

Eternal rolled his eyes, but Heat Blitz curled up into a ball, scared and shaken up. "Rumor has it that she's still out there... ready to claim her land today. She could be anywhere. Maybe even... right... THERE!!!" Shadow pointed behind Heat Blitz. In turn, he screamed and then slumped backwards off the log.

"Oh great, now look what you've done," Eternal said, squeezing the bridge between his eyes. "Normally I'd scold you for scaring Heat, but I'm just gonna brush that aside and call on this load of boloney. There's no such thing as Gaia Everfree. She's merely just an urban legend someone made up just to scare people."

"I... I don't know, Eternal," Heat said, climbing back up onto the log and sitting down. He was still shaking violently from the story. "After everything that's happened so far, I'm not so sure if it's even an urban legend. What if she's real?"

"Heat Blitz, since when does Gaia Everfree make people shoot diamonds out of their hands, or make 'em so strong they snap a rope clean in half?" Eternal asked.

“Something like that isn’t a natural occurrence.” Twilight mused, "Remember, the rope was too thick and new to have happened naturally. And on top of all that, it was a perfectly clean cut.”

“Yep.” Pinkie agreed.

"Okay, I will agree that there's something odd going on in this camp, but there's no way it has anything to do with this "Gaia Everfree" nonsense," Eternal says, stroking his chin as he tries to think of a logical conclusion.

"What about that cave you and your brother were watching the other night? Do you think whoever was coming out of there was the one responsible for what's been going on?" Sunset asked, bringing up an idea for Eternal.

"I think you might be onto something here, Sunset," Eternal said.

"Definitely Gaia Everfree!" Shadow added.

"Is that the only thing drilled into your skull?" Eternal asked.

"Hey, hey, don't be hatin', I'm just trying to have some fun," Shadow said, putting his hands up defensively while smiling.'

"Forgive Trixie for asking, but is he always this carefree?" Trixie asked.

"He's also a bit of a laid-back type of guy," Eternal confirms.

"A guy of his stature is laid-back? Trixie finds that hard to believe. Because..." Trixie fanned herself using her hand. "...he certainly does not look like a slacker."

"Changing the subject, I've noticed something about the occurrences that've happened here. It seems the magic here is being directed towards our friends and in different ways," Twilight said.

"What do you mean?" Heat asked.

"Think about it. Applejack's super-enhanced strength, Rarity's magic diamonds, Pinkie Pie with the exploding powder-y sugar, Rainbow Dash with her... uhh..."

"Her super speed. I saw it with my own two eyes when she raced with Flare against Heat Blitz and Tidal Wave," Spark Burst added.

"Amazing. Somehow, the magic here is giving our friends enhanced abilities based on their natural traits," Twlight said.

"Well, if I'm gonna be honest, I always did have a soft spot for strong, hard-working women," Ground Breaker blurted out.

“Well, I say I fit those qualifications.” A feminine voice called out, making Ground Breaker jump. He turned around quickly and caught sight of Gloriosa joining the campers.

"Oh, hey there, Daisy. Y-You don't mind me calling you that, do you?" Ground asked.

"Looks like you've got some competition, eh AJ?" Rainbow teased, nudging AJ's arm.

"She just startled 'im, no biggie," Applejack replied.

"Oh-ho, so you do like him, huh?" Rainbow asked with a sly grin.

"Do we have to separate you two?" Sunset chuckled. While everyone was chattering on, laughing up a storm, Eternal gave Gloriosa a stick with a few marshmallows. She humbly accepted it and joined in with everyone. However, Eternal felt he had no time to celebrate and have fun just yet. He nudged Gloriosa and whispered to her.

"I got something I want to ask you about tomorrow? Would it be alright if I stopped by your office at around maybe... noon-ish?" Eternal asked.

"I suppose, but you should enjoy yourself for the time being. If there's ever a problem, then have no fear, I've got this," she whispered back.

'Why do I have a hard time believing her?' he thought.

Chapter 5: Campfire Treat

Another day had passed and everyone had their fill in the morning. Today, most of the day was a free day where everyone could just roam around the camp, even go for a little swim in the beautiful lake and have themselves a good time. Everyone, except for Eternal Flames was having the time of their life.

Sunset had her own problems as well. Most of her friends have obtained magical powers, and yet she hasn't. When the time came, Eternal approached Gloriosa and asked to speak with her in her office. She agreed and the two soon disappeared behind the cabin door.

Not wanting to spend the day moping and waiting, she walks over to the docks and lets her feet soak in the water. In her mind, what does her old friend see in some camp counselor? What could they be doing? Was her feelings for him all for naught? She got a hint when both Eternal and Gloriosa walked out of the cabin, calm and collected. Just then...

"Do you have room for two, darling?" Rarity asked, sitting down.

"Oh, sure. Go ahead," Sunset nodded. The fashionista queen gazed at Sunset, becoming concerned with how she's acting.

"Darling, what seems to be troubling you?" she asked. "You're not your usual self at all."

"I just have a lot on my mind right now. Eternal's in the cabin, talking to Gloriosa and... I'm starting to think that maybe he's... I don't know," Sunset looks down at her reflection.

"Come now, Sunset. I might not have known him for as long as you might have, but I do know you have a special place in his heart," Rarity said.

"How can you tell?" Sunset asked.

"Well... why don't you go and ask him?" Rarity suggested.

"Uh... well, here goes nothing," Sunset then got up and immediately left to go to Gloriosa's office, only to hear the sounds of arguing from behind the door.

"What do you mean "you've got this under control?!" Those were not just some random natural occurrences, some of the campers could've gotten seriously hurt! We have to stop whatever's going on here before someone REALLY gets hurt!" Eternal's voice yelled.

"And I'm telling you I've got this under control! You just worry about yourself and your friends while I worry about MY job!" Gloriosa's voice yelled.

"If you're not gonna help keep the campers safe then I'll do it myself... with my bare hands, if I have to!' Eternal yelled, followed by a pounding sound.

"Oh-ho, and just how are you going to do that exactly? I'm all ears," Gloriosa questioned.

"Use your imagination I'm out of here! We're done speaking," Eternal argued.

"Fine!"

"FINE!"

After that, all Sunset could hear was footsteps, then the sound of the doorknob twisting. Sunset backed away and right away, Eternal walked out, looking frustrated, clenching his fists. Gloriosa walked out with her arms crossed and blew raspberries at Eternal. In Sunset's opinion, not a very mature thing to do. But anyways, Sunset ran up to the frustrated redhead.

"Eternal wait!" she called out.

"What is it, Sunset?" he asked, trying to calm down.

"What was with the yelling?"

"Best if you didn't know, trust me."

"But..." right then and there, as she grabbed his hand, a vision came to her. A vision of what went on inside the cabin.

"What did you want to talk about?" Gloriosa asked.

"It's about the recent events that went on ever since we got here. First, the unnatural clean cut rip from that rope caused by Ground and Applejack, then the swimming race with Rainbow Dash disappearing, the rock-climbing, the boat sailing, all of these events are getting me really worried for everyone," Eternal explained.

"I see..." Gloriosa said.

"And to top it off, we think it might have something to do with what my brother and I found in this cave in the forest. If we can just check to see what's inside ther--"

"Out of the question!" Gloriosa snapped. "Er, I... I mean *ahem* no need to worry yourself about that, I can take a look at it myself."

"With all due respect, Gloriosa, I don't think you can handle this whole situation on your own. We all have to find out the problem to these mysterious occurrences. If we don't, then the situation will only get worse. Please, I ask you to push aside this "I work alone" attitude of yours and let us help stop it!"

Everything from that point on turned into a heated argument. Eventually, once the vision ended, Sunset let go of Eternal right as he turned to look at her.

"What is it?" he asked. Sunset didn't know how to react with her new found powers and knowledge of really happened.

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Sunset, feigning a headache, “Just overworked a bit, that’s all.”

“Here.” Eternal hands Sunset a bottle of water, “Keep yourself hydrated. You don't want to get yourself heat stroke in this weather.”

"Thanks Eternal," Sunset accepted the water and gave him a hug. She felt his arms wrap around her and gently pat the back of her head before going off to the lake to cool off. Sunset breathed out a sigh of relief, placing a hand over her chest. "At least now I know he's not seeing someone else."

"You seem to be in a relaxed mood," said another female voice. Sunset turned to her right to see her friend, Flare Warden coming up to her. "Everything going alright?"

"Oh, hi Flare. Yes, I'm fine now. I just had a little bit of self-doubt at first. But I'm fine now. Is there anything you need from me?" Sunset asked.

"Actually, there is. I know we had our differences back when you were... you know..." Flare said, trying not to bring up Sunset's past.

"...A grade-A bitch?" Sunset asked casually.

"Y...yes. Look, I was wondering if we could go back to being good friends," Flare asked.

"Flare, you and I are already good friends. That's one thing that will never change," Sunset said before she gave her bestie a hug. Then, in the corner of her eye, Sunset saw Eternal's little brother about to head into the forest. When he thought no one was looking he sped off, probably searching for the cave. "Uh-oh."

"What's the matter, Sunset?" Flare asked after breaking the hug.

"Flare, I need you to get Eternal and tell him to follow me into the forest. His brother went in there all by himself," Sunset said.

"Oh, sure. You just be careful in there, okay?" Flare asked.

"You forget, I've done this sort of thing more times than you can count," Sunset assured. Flare Warden nodded and rushed off to get Eternal while Sunset dashed off into the forest.

As for young Heat Blitz, he felt scared out of his wits, but he kept going further into the forest, trying to navigate and find the cave. "What was I thinking? I shouldn't be out here with that monster on the loose. N-No! I have to do this, otherwise I won't be able to conquer any of my fears at all." he said to himself. "Just keep calm, Heat Blitz. You're not a coward. You... are not... a coward."

Heat Blitz kept venturing onward until he finally found the entrance to the cave. He took a deep breath, not taking his eyes off of it. "This is it. I'll find out what's in there myself."

"HEY, HEAT BLITZ!" Sunset shouted. Heat Blitz turned around to see his bacon-haired friend running over towards him. "What are you doing, don't you know it's dangerous to be out here all by yourself?"

"It's not that different from Spark Burst going into the forest to meditate under the waterfall. Plus, there's no way I'm leaving here until I find out what's inside that cave."

"Why would you want to do that all by yourself?" Sunset asked.

"I... I have my reasons," Heat Blitz said, unable to tell her his secret. “After what I did… forget about it.”

Sunset had to find out, so she grabbed his wrist and right away, she saw what happened.

In her vision, Heat Blitz was drinking some water while he overheard Shadow and Luna talking to each other. He overheard the campfire story Shadow mentioned and how it scared Heat. That's when he saw Luna look agitated.

"Shadow, how many times must I tell you to stop taking advantage of your cousin's fear? Have you learned nothing at your father's school or do you choose not to?" Luna asked.

"Aw, come on, mom, it was just a bit of harmless fun," Shadow insisted, brushing it off like it was no big deal.

Luna wasn't gonna have it. "That's what you say all the time, Shadow. For once, I wish you would just stop these childish pranks and start caring about how others feel. You know how sensitive dear Heat Blitz is when he's scared."

"Which is why he needs to man up and conquer his fears, otherwise he'll just live the life of a--"

"Don't you dare finish that sentence, young man! You know what your real problem is? You're too laid back and you hardly ever think about how others feel. Now, as your mother and as Heat Blitz' aunt, you are to go find your cousin and apologize to him. Otherwise, you are to stay in your tent for the rest of the camping trip until it is time to eat," Luna said strictly.

"Okay, alright," Shadow said. Heat Blitz hid himself a little more and then when Shadow was far enough away from his mom, "Jeez, it's not my fault he chose to be a coward. It's like everyone's out to chew my head off." he muttered to himself.

Heat Blitz felt a heavy weight slam down on his heart and soon, he slumped down, covering his face after what his own cousin said. "He... didn't have to rub it in," he said to himself.

Soon, Sunset's vision ends and she removes her hand from Heat's wrist. “I~ I’m sorry that happened to you. It wasn’t right of him to do that. But, you didn't have to come out here all by yourself to prove you're not a coward.”

"H-How did you know?" he asked.

"It's my new magical powers. I can read people's thoughts," Sunset said.

"I... I just... I just wanted to be brave like you, Twilight... and my brother," Heat said. "I'm tired of always being scared. For once, I just want people to see me as a brave hero."

"Is that why you came out here?" Eternal's voice asked. Heat looked to his right to see Eternal walking up to him. "Heat Blitz, I'm only brave when I have to be. Being brave doesn't mean you go looking for trouble."

"I... I guess you have a point there."

Eternal nodded. "Now, what made you want to come out here in the first place?"

"Well, from what I found out..." Sunset said before explaining everything. Sure enough...

"WHAT?!" he yelled before storming off in a fit of rage. Heat Blitz panicked and ran off to stop him with Sunset tagging along.

"Eternal! Stop, don't do it! Let's not be hasty!" Heat Blitz called out in vein. "Sunset, for as long as I can remember, my brother holds a huge grudge with anyone who so much as hurts me in any way possible, even his own cousin! If we don't stop him, he'll really let him have it!"

And it looked like Heat Blitz was right. Right as they arrived back at camp, Eternal was already approaching Shadow Force. Sunset and Heat ran over to stop them before things get too ugly.

"Shadow!" Eternal called out.

"Oh, Eternal. Have you seen your bro--" Shadow said before he gets a hard punch to the face and gets knocked to the ground. Everyone at camp saw what had happened and gasped at what they witnessed. "OOF!!! Hey, what was that for?"

"So, it's not your fault that my brother's a coward, huh?! I should slam your sorry ass six feet under after spouting that crack!" Eternal yelled. Shadow quickly picked himself up, rubbing his cheek softly.

"You know, you can be a real loose cannon with how pissed you easily get. I was planning on apologizing to the guy after that campfire story, but since you went and slugged me, I'm not feeling so generous now!" Shadow said, staring down Eternal with a creepy smile.

"I'll give you another slugging if you don't put away that damn smile of yours, you dirty rotten--" Eternal said before being cut off.

"STOP!!!" Heat shouted, running in front of his brother and cousin. "Guys, stop fighting, you're making a scene here!"

"Move aside, Heat Blitz! This bastard needs to be taught a lesson!" Eternal said, gritting his teeth and glaring.

"Eternal, we came here to have fun, not pick fights! Nothing good ever comes out of violence, you should know this! I understand you're upset at Shadow, but picking a fight with him like this won't do anything but cause more confrontation!" Heat persuaded.

The older brother thought long and hard, still breathing heavily. Though he was angry, he retracted his fist and sighed. "You're lucky you're family," Eternal then left and didn't look back, heading off to his tent to cool off. Heat Blitz sighed in relief that things didn't escalate any further.

"Phew, that was close," he said before turning to Shadow. "Are you alright?"

"You forget I'm a martial artist, so taking a beating like that is nothing to me. But, I had that coming and I deserved it. I'm sorry I scared you, couz. Next time, I'll make sure not to tell another story like that when you're around. Do you forgive me?" Shadow asked. Heat Blitz instantly hugged his cousin. "I'll take that as a yes." he chuckled before patting him on the back. "You know something, you're not much of a coward if you were able to stop me and Eternal from throwing fists and kicks."

"I have to agree, that was a very brave thing you did, darling," Rarity said.

"Yeah, but... now I'm worried about my brother. I don't want him to be in too much trouble. He gets passionate with his emotions," Heat said.

"You don't have to worry, son. Your aunt Luna, uncle Sombra and I will talk things over with Gloriosa and see if we can sort things out," Celestia said.

"Agreed. We all came to enjoy a vacation and that's what we're going to do," Luna said.

"Yes, I would have to agree with you, dear," Sombra said. And so the three of them went to go have a chat with Gloriosa.

Meanwhile... "Looks like we both got something out of this. Heat Blitz grew some courage of his own and I got my new mind-reading powers," Sunset said to herself.

"Ooh, you got your new magic powers?" Pinkie asked, listening in on Sunset. "Ooh, ooh, try me, try me!" she said.

"O-Okay, Pinkie," Sunset said, confused. She grabbed Pinkie's wrist and read her mind. Inside Pinkie's mind, she's skipping along a path with these weird creatures on each side, waving at her and she doesn't have a care in the world.

"La-la-la-la-la! Ooh, taffy!" Pinkie said, taking a bite out of it. Sunset's vision ends and her expression was shocked and disturbed.

"That explains so much." Sunset said while Pinkie kept smiling.

"What's the matter, Sunset?" Heat asked.

"Uh... you don't wanna know," Sunset said. "Trust me, it's for the best." Heat quirked an eyebrow, then shrugged it off and went off to do his own thing.

Later on around the afternoon, the adults had talked things over about Eternal's behavior and allowed him to keep joining in on the fun and let him off with a warning. Though he was grateful, he still stayed in his tent because he didn't feel ready to step back out. It was more out of shame that he didn’t come out much and his still seething anger. Most of the time, he just kept thinking about what was happening.

Meanwhile, everyone else was having another tasty barbeque, this time, their meals were cooked by Principal Sombra himself. Everyone was enjoying his cooking, even Gloriosa. Ground Breaker and Applejack were killing their meals, devouring them like they were just a bunch of simple snacks.

"Didn't I tell you he makes some tasty meals?" Ground asked.

"Eeyup, this here food's mighty tasty. By the way, ya ain't still sore 'bout that there tug-o-war game, are ya?" AJ asked.

"Nah, of course not. It was just a game and I shouldn't be belly-aching about it. What good is holding a grudge if it just gets in the way of trying to have some fun?" Ground asked.

"Ah agree," Applejack agreed, “It’s never a good thing to hold in that much bad blood.”

"Yeah, because in the end, we're all here to have a great time! Though, this might be silly, but how about even after this trip is over, we could hang out and grab a burger or something?" Ground asked.

"Sounds like a plan to me. But it'll have to be some time around the weekend. Mah schedule is pretty tight, what with all them apples Ah gotta pick," AJ said.

"I can relate to that. For me, having to harvest wheat and other crops is a killer job. Even if we're used to our jobs, it takes a toll on our body," Ground acknowledged.

"Ah'm surprised ya'd choose me over Gloriosa," AJ teased.

"Gloriosa's cool and all, but I'm not too sure I'm her type of guy. Plus, I've heard from your friends that you're honest. I like a girl who's honest because I know I can trust you.”

“Wh-Why that’s mighty kind of ya.” Applejack stuttered, “Yer makin’ me blush there.”

"Is that a bad thing?" he asked, gently stroking her cheek. AJ giggled and playfully shoved Ground Breaker, but accidentally sent him flying into the lake in a big splash.

"Whoops, Ah plum fergot Ah had super strength!" Applejack said in surprise, “Ah guess Ah went a little overboard.” AJ left to go and check up on Ground to see if he's alright. She saw him climb onto the docks and out of the water, gasping for air.

"Now THAT'S what I call giving it an extra push!" Ground said, laughing it off.

“Yer takin’ it like a champ, aren’t ya?”

"Not as much as... YOU ARE!!!" Ground shouted, pulling AJ into the water with him. She shouted in surprise when she splashed into the water. When she came up to get some air, she glared at Ground adorably, puffing her cheeks.

"Okay, Ah kinda deserved that," AJ said. Both of them shared a good laugh afterwards. However, Applejack used it as an opening for her to splash some water at his face. Shaking off the surprise, Ground Breaker responded in kind with a splash of his own. Soon, it became an all out splash fight, sending droplets of water in all directions.

The other girls can see that AJ was having a blast and decided to let her be. Meanwhile, Sunset and Eternal were looking toward the treeline, enjoying the scenery. As they enjoyed their peaceful moment, it was abruptly interrupted by Pinkie Pie skipping around while humming.

"Hey there, Pinkie. Having fun?" Sunset asked.

"Yup-a-roonie. How are you and Eternal getting along? Is he cooled off now?" Pinkie asked.

"Yeah... I'm fine," Eternal said, avoiding eye contact.

"He'll be fine, as long as no one brings up the incident," Sunset cleared up.

"I see. Well, I thought I'd let you both know, I'm gonna be having a little chat with Shadow. The poor guy's been beating himself up after... well, I won't say it, but I figure he needs someone to turn that frowny upside-downy!" Pinkie squeed after that.

"Before you go... could you tell Shadow I'm sorry for slugging him earlier?" Eternal asked, facing the party planner.

“Okie dokie!” Pinkie sang as she skipped away, “It’s what I do best.”

"Thanks, I owe you big time," Eternal said. Pinkie winked and then skipped away. Eternal shook his head as soon as she was far away enough. "No matter how much I try, I can't seem to figure out Pinkie Pie."

"That's just Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie. It's best not to question her," Sunset said. "Trust me, after what she showed me in her head, you're better off being left in the dark about it."

"I... I suppose I'll take your word for it. Anyways, the view is nice, isn't it?" he asked.

"Yeah, it's beautiful," Sunset agreed. "Maybe it'll be even better if we do this." Sunset pulled Eternal down onto the ground and then laid down next to him, snuggling up to him. "What do you think?"

"I guess you're right. It is better this way. Also, no one's ever snuggled with me before."

"Then it looks like I've made your day," Sunset chuckled. Eternal started stroking Sunset's hair locks, making her giggle a bit. "Does my hair really please you that much?"

"Is it a crime to like your hair? It's soft and smooth and you take care of it real nicely. I don't normally flirt with anyone, but you sure know how to take care of that body of yours. When did you decide to combine your cuteness with sexiness?" Eternal asked, trying to hold back on blushing in front of Sunset.

"Are you trying to make me all hot and bothered?” Sunset slyly asked, “You never lost you touch from all those years ago.”

"Except back then, when I was a little colt, all I asked was mostly "How come you're so cute and smart at the same time?" Back then, I was too oblivious of romance," Eternal said, covering his face with his hand. "I still think you're smart, adorable and beautiful to this day."

Sunset giggled. "Eternal, the only one who's being adorable right now is you," she said.

"Always the charmer, aren't you?" he asked, stroking her cheek. Sunset nuzzled her face into the palm of his hand, snuggling up to him even more. Eternal might not be smiling on the outside, but he sure is doing so on the inside.

Meanwhile, as most of the campers were relaxing in their tents, doing their own thing, Shadow Force stayed by the campfire on his own, soothing his sweet tooth with some of the remaining s'mores he made. Plus, the refreshing summer breeze felt good in his messy black hair and on his grey skin.

"Mmm, now that's a sweet taste of heaven," he said to himself.

“You better believe it.” A sing-songy voice called forth, making him jump. Looking behind him, it was none other than Pinkie Pie, “I don’t know what’s with marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers that make s’mores work but they’re good.”

"No kidding. Here, have some. I made them myself," Shadow said, handing her half of his plate.

"Yippee, thank you!" Pinkie said, taking her seat and eating. "Mmm, gooey!" she said, causing Shadow to burst out laughing.

"Pinkie, do you realize what you just said?" Shadow kept laughing.

Pinkie gulped down her bite. "What? All I said was--" but then Pinkie realizes why he was laughing so hard. "Oopsies." Pinkie said, sticking her tongue out and squeeing.

"Sometimes, Pinkie, you're just too cute and innocent for your own good. How did you not see what you said earlier?" Shadow said, calming down a bit.

"Aww, you think I'm a cutie?" Pinkie asked, poking her cheeks.

"You keep this up, you're get smothered with cuddles. I have a soft spot for those who like to act cute when they're already cute," Shadow said.

"In that case..." Pinkie stopped and let out her cutest squee, making an adorable smile. Right away, Shadow grabbed the party girl and gave her cuddles. Pinkie giggled and nuzzled him cheek to cheek. "Shadow you're too easy to please." she giggled.

"And you're too cute for your own good. I bet you got the boys swooning over you," Shadow said, booping her on the nose. Her face blushed a shade red so deep that it could be seen on her pink skin. It was the last straw as she tackled him to the ground with a half lidded eyes. “What the hell? Pinkie, what are you doing?”

Pinkie giggled once more. "It's all because of your sweet remarks that I can't help myself from wanting to take you," she said.

"Whoa, take me, as in...?" Shadow asked.

"Yup-a-roonie. But first, how about we find a more... private spot and then we can really get this party started," Pinkie offered, batting her eyes at Shadow.

"I ain't got much of a choice, so might as well go with it," Shadow said, slightly nervous.

Pinkie's sultry smile remained as she took Shadow a little ways away from the camp and hid in the forest behind a bush where no one could see or hear them. Pinkie then laid Shadow down on the ground and proceeded to remove his shorts and boxers.

"Let's see what's hiding underneath these rags," Pinkie said seductively. The moment they fully came off, Shadow's rock hard shaft sprang up and booped Pinkie on the nose. "Ooh, now that's one bulky laffy taffy. Let's see if it tastes any good." Pinkie opened her mouth wide enough and took in every inch of Shadow's cock in one go.

"Ooh-hoo-hoo! Now I know how Hurricane felt when he fucked Rarity!" Shadow groaned. He grabbed a hold of the blades of grass underneath him. Pinkie bobbed her head up and down, pushing his cock into the back of her throat with ease. She moaned and sucked on it expertly like she's done it before. "Please... t-t-tell me you're a virgin!"

"Of course, I'm a virgin, silly. I just got in some practice at home with my dildos. But those were only the icing on the cake. This, however..." Pinkie stopped talking and resumed sucking on her favorite sweet and salty treat. “This… is what I truly crave.”

"Bon appetite then, Pinkie?" Shadow chuckled nervously. Pinkie happily bobbed her head on his large meaty stick, swirling her tongue expertly around the base. Shadow's body shivered all over while the sugary lover sucked him mercilessly. 'Oh-ho-ho, jeez! I hope Eternal doesn't kill me when he finds out I got laid!'

Pinkie continues to tease Shadow for a few more minutes until his climax began drawing near. Shadow tapped her on her poofy hair to warn her, but Pinkie didn't stop. She deep-throated him, then went for the gusto, stroking his balls. Shadow groaned and couldn't keep it under control. Finally, he blew his load straight down her throat in large chunks. Pinkie gulped down every drop of cum Shadow had in him.

Pinkie then let go of Shadow's cock and gazed at him with her lust-filled eyes. Just the sight of them was enough to reinvigorate his erection once more. Seeing it, Pinkie saw that the time was right for the climax. Getting off him, Pinkie kicked off her shoes, followed by her pantyhose, skirt, and tank top. To Shadow’s surprise, she wore absolutely nothing underneath, not a damn thing.

“Holy shit!” Shadow gasped with surprise.

"Is the cutie-patootie liking what he's seeing?" Pinkie asked, caressing her gorgeous naked figure, playfully cupping her breasts.

"Who wouldn't?" Shadow said, still gawking at her.

"Then, what are you waiting for? Come here and get some real just desserts," Pinkie urged,

That's it. That was the last straw. In a swift motion, Shadow got up and grabbed Pinkie Pie, tackling her to the ground, but used his hand as a cushion for her head to soften her fall. Shadow aimed his throbbing member at her wet cunny and looked back at Pinkie for reassurance that he got the okay. She smiled and nodded. Soon, Shadow plunged his cock deep inside her love tunnel.

Their bodies were now united, their virginities now ceased to exist. Still reeling from the shock, Pinkie did her best to punt on a smile as Shadow pecked her lips for a few brief moments. With the look of trust in her eyes, Shadow took it as the green light to continue on, pounding away at her cunt.

"Oh wow! You're spreading my insides so much! Keep going! Smash up my pussy good!" Pinkie moaned, begging for more. Shadow was willing to give her just that. Pinkie held onto him for dear life, screaming at the top of her lungs as he jackhammered her pussy. Her slippery insides squeezed him tight like a vice grip. Shadow was trapped even if he wanted to pull out. Shadow's lust took control over him and spanked Pinkie's plump booty. She squeaked and squirted juices from her pussy.

Shadow spanked her even more. Pinkie squirted every time her bottom was smacked. She was enjoying how rough Shadow was becoming. Her body stopped listening to her when he latched onto one of her breasts. All she could do was shriek and let out more of her Pinkie juices. Shadow realized what her weak spot was and went for it every time. Pinkie was trapped by this guy, yet she didn't care. All that was on her mind was a good fucking.

Quickly going limp, she was now at the full mercy of Shadow. Then suddenly, Shadow's panting got even heavier and his cock plunged deeper into her. Shadow wasn't gonna warn her this time and he certainly wasn't gonna hold back on her. He wrapped his arms around her gorgeous body, ready to blow. Pinkie felt his penis throbbing violently. He was gonna cum and he was gonna cum hard.

Then, just as soon as the jets of cum flooded her womb... it hit her. "I... I didn't... take any..." Pinkie moaned, but it was too late. Shadow plunged deep inside her, flooding her womb and expanding it little by little. "Mmm, oh fuck it! Yes! Plant your babies inside of me! YES! OH FUCKING GOD YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!" she shrieked.

Shadow groaned intensely from his massive climax. He never came so much in his life and once he calmed down, he noticed that Pinkie's belly had swollen up a bit. Her hair was all messed up and her eyes showed she was tuckered out, but showed she enjoyed her very first time banging. Shadow smiled down at the party girl and kissed her passionately on the lips.

"What is you said before? You didn't take any... what?" Shadow asked.

"I... didn't take any pills, silly. Which means, we're probably going to have to become parents at a very early age. Y-You don't mind, do you?" Pinkie asked nervously.

"Well... any normal guy would bolt, but me... if you do get pregnant... you're stuck with me," Shadow said, snuggling her.

"R-Really?" Pinkie asked. Shadow took another look at Pinkie Pie. Her eyes swelled up with tears of joy and then she used her momentum to tackle Shadow onto his back. "Thank you so much, Shadow. You have no idea how much this means to me!" she said, but her face was muffled from burying her face into his chest. Shadow tenderly hugged Pinkie Pie and stroked her cheeks. Pinkie Pie leaned in and planted a kiss on his lips. "I love you, Shadow."

"Yeah, I love you, too," he replied, nuzzling her nose-to-nose. The two lovebirds laid there for a few more moments until it was dark enough for the two to sneak back to the campsite. Of course, they remembered to get dressed before heading back. But the moment they got inside their tents...

"What kept ya, Pinkie Pie?" AJ asked, startling Pinkie.

And in Eternal's and Shadow's tent, it was no different. "What was all that screaming I heard in the woods just now?" Eternal asked Shadow.

"Huh?" Shadow asked back, shocked. Eternal crossed his eyes, getting suspicious. "Uh... well, that's a funny story... uhh..."

6. Burning Revelations

"YOU DID WHAT?!" Eternal shouted. Shadow moved back a little, worried that his cousin will slug him again.

"I uh... I kinda... knocked up Pinkie Pie," Shadow said quietly, rubbing the back of his head.

"Shadow have you lost your marbles?! Do you have any idea of the struggles you'll end up facing at such an early age? What the hell were you thinking?!" Eternal shouted.

"Hey, hey! Don't get mad at me, Pinkie came onto me," Shadow put up his hands defensively.

"Yeah, but it was also your fault for pushing her to go that far!" he argued back. Eternal stopped himself from losing his head and focused on his breathing exercise. "However... you did say she was stuck with you, so if you're gonna be supporting her, then I won't stop you. But I'm not so sure what your mother will say about this, or your dad."

"I'll tell them soon, trust me," Shadow said, his expression not as laid-back as it usually is. But as for Pinkie Pie over in her tent.

"He went an' did WHAT to ya?!" Applejack asked, shocked.

"Please don't go after him, I wanted this in the first place. I just couldn't resist Shadow Force, it felt so wonderful, much more than any bakery sale I've hosted," Pinkie said.

“So ya let some random student put some apple seeds in ya?! Do ya even know what rearin’ a youngin means?”

"My mom and dad raised me and my sisters, the only difference between me and Shadow is us being young parents. Besides, he was the first boy who ever liked me for me. I don't care how many babies I have, I just want them and my Shady-Wady to be happy," Pinkie insisted.

"Pinkie, y'all have mah support, but it might raise a lot o' red flags with yer family. Ya understand this ain't an easy road, right?" AJ asked.

"100%. Just, please try to understand," Pinkie begged.

Aj sighed and squeezed the bridge between her eyes. "Pinkie, yer mah friend and Ah fully understand yer situation. Ya want me ta tell the other gals?"

"In due time. But right now, I just need some rest," Pinkie said. Applejack nodded, deciding not to say another word for the time being. Still, she was in shock to find out Pinkie actually got with one of the CTI students. AJ only hopes things don't spiral too out of control.

The next day, neither Applejack, nor Eternal said a word to their friends about the incident. The trip was almost over and it was nearly time to create a memento for the camp. On this particular day, Gloriosa wasn't at the campsite to greet the campers. This concerned both the campers and the principals.

"I do say, where do you girls suppose she could be?" Rarity asked.

"It's usually not like her to not show up and greet us. Where could she be?" Rainbow asked.

"Maybe she's using the restroom. Even hosts need to take a break every once in a while." Fluttershy pointed out.

"So you're saying it's normal for someone to take an hour-long bathroom break?" Sunset asks.

"Something isn’t adding up at all.” Twilight mused as she readjusted her glasses, “Between what has been going on, Filthy Rich’s threats, and Gloriosa’s insistence on doing everything, there has to be some correlation.”

"It looks like those two brothers think so, too. Look, they're sneaking off into the forest," Pinkie pointed out. Twilight and Sunset looked into the direction Pinkie pointed to. Just like she said, both Eternal and Heat Blitz were both heading out into the forest.

"It looks like this can only mean one thing. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Sunset asked.

"We'd better follow them. They might not know what they're getting themselves into," said Twilight, worried. Sunset agreed with Twilight and the two girls soon followed the boys close behind, quickly catching up to them after navigating through the forest halfway.

"Twilight, Sunset, what brings you here?" Heat asked.

"Did you boys think we'd let you have all the fun searching the cave?" Sunset asked. "We want to know what's going on here as much as you guys. So whether you like it or not, we're helping out one way or another."

"I can't argue with you either way, you're the ones with the powers," Eternal said. He gestured the girls to follow him and Heat Blitz farther into the forest. Thanks to their teamwork, they reached the spot where they found the cave. Hearts got heavy with pressure and slight twitch of fear as they slowly approached the entrance.

"Eternal, whatever you do, don't do anything rash," Sunset whispered. Her childhood friend nodded and then one-by-one, they all snuck into the cave. What they find inside leaves them all speechless beyond anything that they imagined. Inside the cave, it was large enough to host a concert big enough for an entire class. However, at the end of the cave was a pedestal that held these strange geode crystals.

"Hey girls, are you seeing this?" Heat asked, running up to the geodes. He attempted to reach out and grab one of the remaining geodes, but...

"Wait, stop!" Twilight said. “We have no idea what they could do! If we take any rash action, It could possibly render this entire area a crater!”

"Oh right... sorry about that," Heat retracted his hand.

"Whatever these geodes are, someone must've taken a liking to them because some of them aren't even here. Look," Eternal points at the 5 empty holes where the other geodes should be.

"Do you think it's possible this could have something to do with the crazy stuff that's been happening here?" Sunset asked.

"Shouldn't you 4 be back at the campsite?" asked a female voice.

Sunset and Twilight gasped as they both looked behind them to see Gloriosa Daisy blocking their exit. Her expression was anything but smiles and sunshine. Heat Blitz and Eternal were both shocked to see her here.

"So it was you coming out of the cave that night! Gloriosa what's going on here?" Eternal asked, trying not to sound rude.

"Sorry, but I can't tell you," Gloriosa said.

"You don't have to tell us. I can find out for myself," Sunset said, grabbing her wrist.

In Gloriosa's memories, Sunset could see the meeting she had with Filthy Rich before he arrived at the camp when everyone else was around. Sunset saw him and Gloriosa having an argument about Filthy taking the camp and turning it into a hotel resort with a spa. Gloriosa was begging him to give her more time. Reluctantly, he agreed to give her 'til the end of the month to come up with the money.

Gloriosa was a nervous wreck. She knew she couldn't come up with that much money to keep her camp up and running. Then came the day when she stumbled across the cave with the magic geodes. Realizing how much power those things held, she was determined to use them to their fullest and keep her camp safe.

Then came the days when everyone was doing their camp activities. Her memories showed Gloriosa using the geodes to enhance the students' abilities from the tug-of-war to the swimming race. Even the sailing and rock climbing incident. It was all her. Once Sunset saw enough, she pulled away from Gloriosa's wrist.

"What was that for?" Gloriosa asked, yanking her arm away from Sunset.

“I can’t believe it!” Sunset gasped, “The rope, the swimming race, the rock climbing... all of it was your doing!”

"What? But why would she do that?" Heat Blitz asked in disbelief.

"It must have something to do with why that grease ball, Filthy Rich showed up that day." Eternal guessed. "If I know that greedy bastard, he wants to buy this camp and tear it all down!"

"Is that true, Gloriosa?" Twilight asked.

"That's right! That man wants to take away the camp that my grandparents built! And I swore I would do anything to keep that from happening, but it feels like no matter what I do, I just make things worse!" Gloriosa said.

"Why didn't you just tell us? We would've helped save the camp by opening up a charity. Why keep it all to yourself?" Heat asked.

"Because... I... GOT THIS!!!" Gloriosa shouted before using the geodes she has to trap the four friends in vines and then took the remaining geodes with her back to camp. "And I won't let you interfere with my plans." To their surprise, Gloriosa moved this huge boulder that was outside the cave and used it to block the exit.

"She's gone out of control! We have to stop her right now!" Twilight said.

"How? Even if we got free of these vines, that boulder is too heavy to push out of the way, even with our combined strength!" Eternal pointed out.

"Well, there has to be something we can do. If we don't act fast, she might hurt the other campers by accident," Sunset said.

"No... I won't allow her to harm them! Especially not my cousin!" Eternal said, almost losing his temper trying to pull the vines off his legs.

"Eternal, calm down. We'll get out of here, we just need to think this through,"

“Calm down? CALM DOWN?! HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO CALM DOWN WHEN MY COUSIN IS IN DANGER?!”

In that moment, when his anger was becoming more hostile, bits of flames start seeping out of his body as well as what looked like Equestrian magic. The vines gave way to the heat and turned to ash.

"Eternal, I know it might sound weird, but... there's fire on parts of your body!" Sunset tried not to panic. Eternal's eyes caught sight of the tiny flames that covered parts of his body.

"How...can this be?" He asked, shocked.

"It must've happened when you lost your temper for a second there. Quick, use it to burn these vines off of us, but try not to barbeque us," Twilight said.

"Understood," Eternal kneeled down to the ground and gripped the vines. Concentrating on his anger, his hands soon caught fire and the vines quickly got charred up and slowly crumbled into burnt up charcoal, breaking easily, thus setting the others free.

"Let's go! Gloriosa might have become corrupted by the magic!" Sunset said. The others followed her to the exit, which was still blocked by the boulder.

"I'll handle this," Twilight said. She put her hands out in front of her and used her new magic powers to levitate the boulder out of the way, allowing them to finally escape. Once they were out of the cave, they knew they had to warn the others.

Back at the campsite, the rest of the students were all busy hanging out with their friends doing whatever floated their boat. The students from Canterlot High cooked marshmallows over fires while those from CTI were at the lake fishing. As Gloriosa looked over at the busy campers, a sense of regret loomed over her. She swore to protect the camp by any means. Even if it means doing the unthinkable.

She took in a deep breath and walked out into the campsite, letting everyone know of her presence and were relieved to see her alright.

"Fellow campers, I have an announcement. As some of you are curious about why Filthy Rich came the other day, there's a reason why... He means to tear down our precious Camp Everfree," Gloriosa said, making everyone gasp. Celestia and Luna were shocked as well. "Yes, it's a shock for me as well, but I plan to make sure that this camp remains unharmed... and I will see to it that NO ONE STANDS IN OUR WAY!!!"

Gloriosa invoked the power of her geode crystals. Their magic surrounded her and changed her into a corrupted version of herself. Her glorious magenta hair changed into a dark teal color. Her eyes turned pitched black with glowing green irises. Her cute yellow shirt was replaced with a forest green dress with a matching skirt and leggings. Right on her chest area is where the geode crystals were at.

Everyone at camp seemed to panic at the sight of her transformation. "Now, fellow campers... it's time to take a stand... for Everfree!" she said before she started singing.

The campers panicked even more as tree roots started coming out of the ground. Celestia, Luna, and Sombra all took most of the campers to the cabin where they would be safe. In doing so, Gloriosa trapped them there with the many tree roots and vines, The ones who didn't make it into the cabin were left outside at the corrupted host's mercy. The girls, however, weren't gonna take this lying down.

Meanwhile, Twilight, Sunset, Eternal and Heat all arrived at the campsite, but the camp was blocked off by a large dome made of tree roots and vines.

"Crap, we're too late!" Eternal said, worried. "How are we supposed to get through this damn thing now?"

"Don't you have your fire powers?" Heat asked.

"Yeah, but to get past that thing, I'd have to shoot out a stream of flames. And if you haven't noticed, those roots are thick," Eternal argued, "Only something explosive would break through that barrier temporarily."

"Explosive?" Twilight asked before getting an idea. "Wait, THAT'S IT!"

While the four friends plan their strategies outside the dome, Rarity tried to reason with Gloriosa with a proposition. "Come now, darling. Why don't we all just... relax and... soothe those cares away with a trip to the spa?" but alas, this only made things worse.

"To the spa?" she asked sweetly. "TO THE SPA?!?!?!" her demeanor changed to anger and fury, resulting in her using her powers to trap the girls in more tree roots. Rarity used her powers to block off the roots that tried to constrict her. Pinkie Pie, on the other hand, took out a tub of powdered sugar and threw it at the roots. The sugar exploded upon impact and blew some of the roots away. Even then, they kept growing.

“Really?” Gloriosa scoffed as she turned her attention to them, “Why do you try to stop what I’m doing to SAVE Camp Everfree?! Idiotic!”

"Yeah, but it's no fun if you're keeping everyone hostage here! There are better ways to save the camp than resorting to desperate measures like this!" Tidal Wave called out from the cabin.

"He's right! Ah can't stand to see this camp go either. So why don't ya lose those gems and we'll help ya out!" Applejack said.

"There's no need... I... GOT THIS!!!" Gloriosa refused. More roots shoot out from the ground, causing Pinkie to toss her tub of powdered sugar at the dome out of fear, The impact created a hole big enough for anyone to jump through. And right on cue, Sunset, Twilight, Heat and Eternal all jumped through just before the hole closed up.

"Gloriosa!!!" Eternal yelled out, getting her attention. "Let our pals go!"

"You have no authority to boss me around, you little NUISANCE!!!" soon, she sends in one of the roots to grab him. He jumps out of the way, dodging it successfully, but is then cornered by more tree roots.

"Alright, if you're gonna be difficult with me, I'll just have to turn up the heat in here!" Eternal said, creating two fireballs in his hands. Somehow, the roots sensed the extreme heat coming from the flames in his hands and backed off as if they knew. the danger. He threw a couple of them at the roots, He missed on but got the other. It screeched and retreated underground,

Twilight and Sunset ran over to their friends, who were in a bit of a shock, but remained unharmed thankfully. Twilight's eyes darted away when she saw Heat Blitz running over to Gloriosa, who was levitating off the ground.

"Heat Blitz, NO!" Twilight yelled out. But Heat Blitz didn't listen. Twilight could only watch as he jumped onto one of the roots that tried to catch him, then used it at a spring to leap higher up and grab onto the corrupt Gloriosa.

"Gloriosa wait, this has to stop!" he said, holding on for dear life.

"Let go of me, I have a camp to protect!" Gloriosa tried to shake him off, but Heat refused to let go of her and kept on trying.

"Gloriosa, I understand that this camp means so much to you! If I were in your shoes, I'd probably be doing the same thing. But this isn't the right way to do it! You don't have to do things on your own! Please, stop this madness and let us help you!" he said,

"What do you know about anything? You haven't struggled for as long as I have to keep this whole camp running smoothly! Know your place and STAY OUT OF MY WAY!!!" she gripped his throat, yelling at his face, The tree roots then grabbed him by the legs, scaring him as the roots slammed him to the ground.

Twilight gasped and ran over to Heat Blitz. He was barely conscious, but his body ached pretty badly and he was unable to move properly. "Heat Blitz, are you alright?" Twilight asked, worried about him.

"I... I think I'm oka-- OW, MY ARM!!!" Heat said, gripping his left arm. While Twilight was tending to him, Eternal watched from afar, His eyes widened from seeing his brother taking such a violent punishment. Suddenly... he snapped.

The area around him quickly began to heat up. His body was engulfed in flames. The others quickly saw him losing control. Even Gloriosa witnessed it. Eternal let out a ferocious battle cry and flames erupted high up, creating a massive hole in the root dome. The people couldn't see Eternal anymore, just a violent burst of flames that surrounds him.

But when the flames finally dispersed... they were looking at a monster that was no longer Eternal Flames. His eyes were golden yellow with black, slitted pupils with the outer parts a dark burgundy color. That snow white skin turned into yellow-ish white. Hot flames flickered atop his head where his hair would be. He still had the same scars under his eyes. His body had bulked up slightly and his expression was a calm, angry glare.

"I can never forgive you for what you've done," he said in a deep distorted voice.

“What’s happening to him?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“It’s as I feared.” Sunset solemnly spoke, “His latent magic has broken free. He’s lost control and now his energy controls him in a berserker state.”

"There's gotta be something we can do to stop him, but what?" Fluttershy asked.

"I don't know, but all I can say is this: He's definitely his mother's son," Sunset said, watching in shock and awe.

"So you want to fight back, do ya? Fine, but you've just walked into a world of trouble!" Gloriosa threatened as she launched more tree roots to restrain Eternal. He doesn't budge and allows the tree roots to wrap around his body tightly. His body temperature rises up through the roof, incinerating the roots and then breaks free, sending the burnt parts flying in huge charcoal chunks everywhere.

"Fire and grass do not mix. Life lesson 101," he said menacingly, sticking his hand out in her direction before shooting a burst of flames at her. Gloriosa has little time to dodge and gets caught in the blast. She's sent flying back and hits the ground hard. Eternal walks up to her, igniting his arms in searing flames.

Sunset's worries grew more intense, not just because he was growing more corrupt, but she could also see his hands starting to turn red from the heat. She was growing scared because the flames were damaging him, too.

"Your time has run out, mortal. Now, you will feel the true wrath of your master and executioner... Supernova!" he growled, getting closer to the still knocked-out Gloriosa.

"Girls, there's no time! We have to stop them both before they end up killing themselves!" Sunset said.

"But how? We couldn't even defend ourselves earlier," Rarity pointed out.

"There's another way to stop all this. Now quick, everyone, join hands," Sunset said. The girls all rushed over to Sunset, Joining hand-in-hand, their magic auras surrounded them. Soon, the geodes on Gloriosa float over to the girls, enhancing their magical abilities. All except for a certain bookworm. "Twilight, what's wrong?"

"I... I can't do it. What if Midnight Sparkle takes control of me," Twilight asked.

"Twilight, trust me, she won't. She has no power over you. Just dig deep!" Sunset said. "I know you can do it."

Though she was frightened about the whole ordeal, Twilight knew that lives were on the line, so she tossed aside her fears for the time being and dug deep inside her, trying to tap into her true, unlocked powers.

Inside her mind, her fears quickly came back when from right behind her. "You will never control me, for I am more powerful!" Midnight said. She transformed into a dark magical mist, entering inside her body, trying to take over her.

"Twilight, remember what I said!" Sunset's voice called out. "You are stronger than her. You are not Midnight Sparkle! Don't hold anything back!"

Twilight put up a good fight against her darker half, and soon... she regained control and dispelled her. After her internal battle of wills, her vision came back to reality. Now in full control of her power, she turned her attention back to Supernova, driven by her will. Seeing him terrorizing the camp goers and her friends made her goal as clear as the day. He must be stopped while his human vessel must be saved.

"I am not Midnight Sparkle... I am Twilight Sparkle!" she yells out. She then undergoes her transformation using the power of her geode. Now that all of the girls are ready, they unleashed their powers onto the two corrupted individuals. A magic rainbow surrounded them both. Gloriosa was still knocked out and Supernova yelled out in a fit of rage and agony.

Finally, a burst stream of magic exploded, blinding everyone in the camp and destroying the root dome surrounding them. Supernova let out a roar before he was transformed back into Eternal Flames and collapsed to the ground, unconscious with Gloriosa. The camp host regains consciousness first and looks all around her.

The look of horror and shock on everyone brought a sense of guilt in Gloriosa's heart. She realized she had done wrong and decided to confess.

"I'm sorry. I caused you all a lot of trouble. When I found the geodes, I only wanted to use them to fix the little things at this camp. But the magic was too much for me to handle and I lost control over... well everything. I'm truly sorry. I understand if you'd want to leave." Gloriosa soon hanged her head in shame.

"But don't you see?" Heat Blitz said, trying to get up. Twilight ran over to help him up to his feet. "We love this camp as much as you do. Yes, you lost control, but in the end you were saved. I don't want to see this camp go down under and neither do the other guys. There's no need to do things on your own. We'll do anything we can to help. Right, Ete--" Heat stopped when he realized his brother was still unconscious and had steam emitting from his entire body and burn marks on his arms. "ETERNAL!!!" he screamed.

He rushes towards his body, feeling the ambient heat radiating from him. Touching his skin, it still felt piping hot to the touch. As much as wanted to, Heat Blitz couldn’t give his brother a hug without burning himself. His eyes filled with tears as he worried for his kin. He never moved an inch and he feared the worst.

"Guys! He's burning up! Please, help him!" Heat panicked, crying his eyes out. Twilight heard his distress and ran over to her weeping friend. Twilight then used her magic to levitate Eternal's unconscious body, rushing over to the lake and carefully placed him in the water. "Twilight, what are you--"

"This is the only thing we can do to cool him off! I promise you, he's gonna be okay," Twilight said, holding Heat's hand. Heat nodded and put his faith in Twilight. Meanwhile, Twilight did all she could to get Eternal's temperature to go down. In just a couple of minutes, the steam in his body disappears and right away, his eyes slowly opened.

After he regained consciousness, his memories of what he's done flooded his mind and gasped before swimming out of the lake, away from the campers.

"Wha-- Eternal, where are you going?" Heat asked.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME! I'M A MONSTER!!!" he yelled out running away.

"Eternal, come back!" Heat said. "Guys, come on, he needs us!" he turns to the others as he said that.

"I'm right behind you," Twilight said.

"Count us in as well," Celestia said, walking up with her sister and brother-in-law, Sombra, following her. "I won't allow him to ostracize himself for something out of his control.”

“Agreed, sister.” Luna said as she dusted herself, “But, we need to be delicate about this.”

“I honestly wished I saw this coming.” Sombra mused, “If I knew earlier… oh jesus.”

"None of us knew this was gonna happen. And now that it has happened, we have to fix this right away. The one who's feeling the most pain right now is Eternal. I've never seen him so scared of himself before," Sunset said.

"Just like... I was scared of myself, too. He deserves to know that he's not alone. So let's not waste any time," Twilight said. The others agreed with each other and ran off, looking for their scared friend.

They quickly find him over by the river, splashing his face with water and yelling at himself. "Damn you! Damn you! DAMN YOU!!! Why did you have to lose control like that, you stupid son of a bitch! How the hell are you supposed to face them now!" While looking at his reflection in the water, he still mentally saw his darker half looking back at him... growling and smiling at him. "GET AWAY YOU DEMON!!!" he then slammed his fist into the water, panting heavily.

“Uhhh… hello, Eternal?” Sunset softly said as she slowly approached him, “Are you… okay?”

"What do you think?" he said, keeping his gaze away from his loved one. "You saw what happened out there, I know what I did. I'm a goddamn monster who almost burnt this entire camp to the ground. I'm no better than that slimebag, Filthy Rich."

"That's not true," Celestia intervened. "The only reason you lost control was because you saw Heat Blitz get hurt. You were just trying to protect him."

"It's true the evil inside you took over, but you didn't know this would happen. Even I wasn't aware that this would happen. But you have to listen to me when I say this: You are not a monster at all." Heat Blitz said, holding his injured arm.

"Your brother's right. Take me, for example. I nearly lost myself when I ended up turning into Midnight Sparkle, yet Sunset was the one who saved me and made everyone see that in the end, I'm still me. Just like how you're still you. You are Eternal Flames and there's nothing that's gonna change that." Twilight said.

"How do I know you're not doing this to make me feel better?" Eternal asked, not wanting to look at them.

"Because we care about you. Your family and friends care too much for your to see you acting like this. I've always known that you the kind of young man to pick up others and help them stand together. Well now, the time has come for us to help you stand back up. You might have transformed, but it doesn't change our perspective of you. Now come on... on your feet," Principal Sombra said, extending his hand out to his student.

“Why do you still care about me… even though I did what I did?” Eternal asked back with tears welling in his eyes, “I want you to take a few goddamn minutes to REMEMBER WHAT I JUST DID EARLIER!”

"Eternal... I know how you feel. I had the same thoughts as you do back when I turned into a raging she-demon. Don't you remember? I told you this the other day. In the end, Princess Twilight found it in her heart to forgive me for my mistakes, just like we're able to forgive you for your mistakes. And like how we forgave Twilight for her mistakes," Sunset said, hugging him. "And besides... I love you too much to see you suffering like this."

Eternal's eyes shot open. "Wh-What was that?" he asked. Sunset looked directly into his eyes and gave him a sad smile, her eyes swelling with tears.

"I love you, Eternal," Sunset said. Eternal's heartbeat raced faster than before. In return for Sunset's confession, he hugged her, never letting go. She embraced him lovingly while he sobbed quietly in her shoulder.

"I love you too, Sunset. I'm... so sorry. I never wanted this whole mess to happen," Eternal said all choked up. The others allowed Sunset and Eternal to have their moment. Sombra looked down at his student with a proud smile. Seeing him finally break out of his shell meant a lot to him after everything Eternal went through. Heat Blitz and Celestia were happy to finally see Eternal lifting such a heavy burden off of his shoulders and find love.

Luna was also proud of her nephew, but shedded a few tears after seeing him cry for the first time in years. Twilight felt the same way as everyone else did. The nightmare was finally over for them. But the real battle is only beginning.

7. A Calm Loving Night

It felt like forever since Sunset and the others went after Eternal. But, thankfully, now that everything was sorted out with the young man, the group made their way back to the campsite where everyone else was waiting. Eternal's friends seemed very worried about what had happened to him and rushed over to check up on their friend.

"Hey, couz! You alright, you're not hurt, are you?" Shadow asked.

"Yeah, you gave us all quite a scare, what was that?" Ground Breaker asked.

"Guys, guys, give him some space," Heat said.

"No, it's fine. They deserve to know..." Eternal said. "Guys, I'll be fine, I just needed some time to calm down and reflect on my actions. I apologize for making you all worry so much. Also, that monster you all saw me turn into... it was out of my control. I didn't know it was gonna get out of hand and I felt so powerless."

"There's no need to be so hard on yourself, buddy. Look on the bright side: no one was burnt to a crisp and the camp is still in one piece. It's good to have you back," Hurricane Breeze said.

"I appreciate your support, but... deep down, I still feel like the darkness is still lurking deep within me, waiting for me to drop my guard," Eternal said. But then, Spark Burst placed a hand on his shoulder, getting his attention.

"Life is unpredictable and in most ways, it's hard for us to understand life. But when things seem bleak, you must be able to find it with you to forgive yourself and move on," Spark said.

"Yeah, he right," Tidal Wave said. "I mean, look at all of us. There were times in our lives when we did something wrong. But we don't let it affect who we truly are. In the end, it's good to finally have you back, old friend."

His friends' reassurance was more than enough to make him feel a little better. "Thanks, guys. Come on, there's still one last thing that we still have to do." Eternal said. Knowing exactly what he was talking about, everyone followed him back to the campsite, where everyone else and Gloriosa were still waiting. The camp host wasn't sure if she should face Eternal, after what she did to his brother, so she decided not to look at him. "Gloriosa, listen..."

"If you're still upset about what I did, I'm sorry," she replied, not looking at him. "I realized I was in the wrong here. But if you're going to lecture me, then do it."

"I was in the wrong as much as you were. But listen, I wanted to tell you I'm sorry for losing control and almost destroying the camp. If I had known you were trying to keep it running while trying to keep Filthy's hands off of it, I would've tried to talk some sense into you."

"You're... not mad at me anymore?" she asked.

"I had a very long talk with my family. Forgiveness isn't easy, but it has its benefits. Listen, I think I might know how we can fix this whole "saving the camp" thing."

"That's right and we're gonna pitch in to help!" Celestia said.

"I agree, I cannot stand to see this sacred place get torn down," Luna added.

"Ooh, if that's the case, why don't we throw a party!" Pinkie chimed in.

"B-But how? This camp doesn't seem big enough to hold such a gathering," Gloriosa said.

"Maybe not here, but the cave we found in the forest might be just the place. All we would need to do is hand out some flyers and invite people over here. OH! And if it's possible, we can even play some songs!" Heat Blitz suggested.

"Heat Blitz, as good an idea that sounds, we didn't bring our instruments," Eternal said. "We can't exactly sing and perform without them."

"Really?” Rainbow gasped, overhearing their conversation. “You guys are in a band?!”

“OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!!” Pinkie Pie sang with her usual tone.

“Well,” Sunset started, “We do have extra instruments. Perhaps we can perform together if that’s what you want.”

"Hey, that's not a bad idea! What do you think, guys?" Hurricane asked.

"I say... LET'S DO IT TO IT!" Shadow hollered.

After plans were made, as well as the flyers, Rainbow Dash took the time to dash off into the city, putting the flyers up everywhere. She was making excellent time, thanks to her newfound super speed. Word was spreading fast about Camp Everfree on the rocks. Lots of people were gathering and racing off to the camp to help support in any way they can.

When most of the crowd gathered over at the cave, the girls were already playing their brand new song. The crowd cheered and clapped as the girls took their performance sky high. The air around them became polluted with noise from both the music and the cheering. The crowd was lively and excited about the famous rainbooms putting on a good show. As for the rainbooms themselves, they enjoyed it as much as the crowd did.

After their song finished, the crowd clapped and cheered for another job well done. After giving their thanks, they departed the stage, leaving Eternal Flames and his friends to have their chance to shine. They performed in front of large crowds before, but it made it all the more tougher trying to contain their excitement. With their instruments in hand and in position, they both gave a mental gulp of air and prepared to give it their all. It was their time to shine.

The girls were quickly impressed with their performance. They, along with the crowd, cheered for the boys. Sunset was especially impressed at how well Eternal was playing the guitar. Twilight was probably the only one who noticed that Heat Blitz wasn't performing with them.

"Hey, why aren't you with them?" Twilight asked.

"I'm barely able to play a regular guitar," Heat replied. "Besides, I'm happy singing solo."

Twilight wasn't sure how to feel about that, but she respected his decision. And soon enough, the boys' song finished and everyone cheered for them, making them bow. Eternal quickly noticed Filthy Rich in the way back of the crowd. He didn't seem pleased with how big a crowd they had attracted. He quickly grabbed the mic and yelled out to him.

"Sorry, Filthy, but you're not touching this camp anytime soon! As for all of you guys, thanks for your support! TO CAMP EVERFREE!!!" he shouted, causing everyone to raise their arms up in their air with him.

After that, the boys stepped off the stage and joined in with the crowd. At the snack table, Eternal was chilling out with Sunset, then gazed over at where Heat Blitz was, talking with Twilight Sparkle and having such a wonderful time. And just seeing how much joy Twilight brings to him... had put a smile on his face. Sunset immediately pointed it out.

"Ooh, that's a handsome smile you have there.” Sunset teased, lightly jabbing him in the arm.

“Wh-Wh-What smile?” Eternal stuttered, “I-I wasn’t smiling!”

"That smile you made just now. You don't have to be embarrassed about it. It's actually been a long time since I've seen you smile. It makes me feel relieved, to be honest." Sunset pointed out, wrapping an arm around his. "Tell me, why don't you smile anymore?"

"I... I don't even know, myself," he replied.

Meanwhile, as the two were talking, Twilight and Heat Blitz were conversing with each other as well, but on something entirely different.

"You know, Heat Blitz, I never told you this before, but I was once a Crystal Prep student," Twilight said, making him blink in surprise.

"You what? What reason did you want to enroll into that school?" Heat asked with concern.

"Well, they were probably one of the most advanced schools in the city and I wanted to boost my knowledge in the hopes of... going to Everton," Twilight said.

"Everton? That's an independent study program, you would've been all on your own. Do you still plan on going there?"

"Well, no... not anymore. I had a lot of time to rethink where I wanted to go after the Friendship Games ended. So, I transferred to Canterlot High and now I have a group of friends who accept me just as much as the whole school itself."

"That's great to hear. At least you found happiness in a different school. I can't imagine what it was like over there," Heat said.

Thanks. Oh, by the way, does your school know about Crystal Prep?" Twilight's question seemed to make Heat uneasy, but he still chose to answer her.

"Actually, we do. In fact, the school has a long history with them. A bad one. Neither Crystal Prep, nor Canterlot Tech talk about this, but... we're the only school that handed them the most brutal defeats over the years. I don't like talking about it because in recent years we've competed against them, my... my older brother chewed them out. He said... "because you keep striving for perfection, you'll never know true victory, not in a million years." He's very bitter around snobs and even I found that speech uncalled for," Heat explained.

"He seriously said that? Ouch," Twilight said. "I'm glad I didn't participate in those games."

"Even if you did, my brother has a keen eye on how people act. If he saw you, he'd probably tell you something like... "You don't belong in a school with snobbish students. There are other schools that are more kind than CPA. You just have to know where to look," Heat explained

"That's nice. At least I have your brother's approval," Twilight said. "You know... after this trip is over, we're certainly gonna have a lot to tell the others about back home."

"Yeah... you're right. But... I know all good things must come to an end. But I just wish..." Heat's expression immediately changed from happy to depressed. "...it didn't have to end so soon." Twilight didn't want to see him looking so down, so she took his hand and made him look at her.

"Maybe it doesn't have to end for us. We could always... meet up more once we get back. How does that sound?" Twilight asked.

"It sounds wonderful," Heat said, his warm smile returning. In that moment, Twilight heart was racing, her cheeks slightly turning red. Heat Blitz felt himself blushing too. Their eyes continued to gaze at each other. Soon, the gap between them closed slowly and before they knew it... their lips finally met. Twilight embrace Heat Blitz and vice versa.

“Well, look at Twilight and Heat, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G.” Sunset chuckled, “Relax, I kid you both.”

“Hardy-har-har!” Twilight jokingly laughed, “And you just blew the moment.”

"Sorry for her outburst. But, Twilight," Eternal said. "I wish you and Heat Blitz the best of luck in your new relationship. You have my blessings."

"Thanks Eternal. And don't worry. Heat Blitz is in good hands," Twilight said, leaning into her brand new boyfriend.

"That makes two of us, Twilight," Sunset said, confusing Eternal. Just then, Sunset pulled Eternal in and smashed her lips onto his. He widened his eyes in surprise. However, his surprised look is replaced with confidence and he took Sunset in, deepening the kiss.

The guys were whooping and whistling for their buddy finally kissing his new girlfriend. "Yeah, that's what I'm talking about, couz!" Shadow hollered.

Rarity sighed. "What a lovely vision of romance," she said.

"Good fer you, Sunset!" AJ said.

"Yay!" Fluttershy said quietly.

"Alright, way to go, Sunset!" Rainbow teased.

"Don't get too frisky now!" Pinkie called out teasingly.

"Have fun on your dates, you two!" Hurricane Breeze said.

"You make sure you keep her happy!" Ground and Spark said.

Yup, it seemed like everyone was happy for the two new couples. And even more so now that the camp was back on track. It seems like things were finally turning out for the better

The time was now midnight and everyone was in their tents, fast asleep. Everyone had mostly everything all packed up for their return trip home. Meanwhile, there were 4 campers who weren't in their tents and were hanging out in certain parts of the lake. Twilight and Heat Blitz were out on the docks and Eternal and Sunset laid in the grass on the far East side of the camp. Sunset was in her cute, purple pajamas and Eternal had on his black tank top and sweats. Both of them were cuddling underneath the stars and moon.

“Eternal,” Sunset started.

“Mhmm?” Eternal grunted, shifting position.

“Is it okay if I ask you something?”

“I guess. What’s on your mind?” With a sigh and moment of meditation, Sunset prepared to ask the question that was on her mind.

"Do you still remember the vow we made as foals? You know, on the day when I left to go to Princess Celestia's school?" Sunset asked.

"Yeah, I remember exactly what I said..." Eternal said, embarrassed to say it, but did it anyways. "I specifically said that I would always think about you, even if I forget your name. And when we met again... we'd always be together and look out for each other." Sunset blushed a little bit at the reminder.

“E-Eternal,” Sunset stuttered, “Are you suggesting… marriage?”

“It’s on my mind, but not just yet. We’ve not seen each other in ages and we have a lot of catching up to do. Yet, I wouldn’t mind being married to you at all. As cliche as it sounds… I love you so much and you’re my everything.”

Sunset's heart raced from the way he confessed to her. Unable to take her gaze away from her boyfriend, she leans in to kiss him. Eternal looks at Sunset and plants his lips on hers. Enraptured by the intimacy, their bodies connecting in more ways than one, Sunset leans on Eternal and pins him to the ground with her body. Eternal, having long waited for that moment, held her body tight against him as one hand glided towards her rear end, giving it a gentle squeeze.

“Eternal,” Sunset gasped, breaking the kiss, “are you sure you want to go through with this?”

“Sunset,” Eternal whispered, “my love for you could only go so far. I love you so much that I… I want to make you happy no matter what. If this is what you want, I’ll make it happen for you and…” Eternal brings Sunset’s face close to his, “I’ll have not an ounce of regrets.”

Sunset's warm smile soon drowns out her worries and nuzzles into her boyfriend's hand. The next thing she does is sit herself up and helps take off his tank top. Sunset admired Eternal's well-toned figure. She takes off her pajama shirt so Eternal isn't left out. Eternal is surprised to see Sunset braless under her pjs. His face was flushed, but he found it to be very arousing.

"How long has it been since you added sexy to your adorableness?" he asked.

"Hard to say.” Sunset snickered, “But, does it really matter? I’ve dreamt of this moment, just the two of us, sharing our bodies.”

"Yeah... same here," Both lovers smiled and soon, Sunset moved down a bit and helped Eternal out of his sweats. Her eyes met with the huge bulged tent in his boxer briefs. Sunset licked her lips when she finally set that monster free.

"Hey, baby? Could you stand up for me please? I have something you might enjoy," Sunset asked while stroking her hot-headed boyfriend's cock.

"Alright then," Eternal said, a bit confused by his girlfriend's request. He still stood up to his feet. Sunset grabbed a hold of Eternal's erection and slowly took in his member, bobbing her head. Eternal's body shivered from this new sensation. Yet, Sunset didn’t stop there and she was going to give Eternal the night of his life. Sandwiching his member between her tracts of land, she supplemented the blowjob with a good titjob, causing Eternal’s eyes to roll into the back of his head. Lord oh lord, the amount of pleasure was insane.

“Sunset,” Eternal gasped, “good lord!”

"You like that, don't you? I knew you would. So how are my breasts? Are they big?" she asks, mashing her lovers cock between her bosom.

"Big and soft! Where did you learn to do this?" Eternal asked.

"Rarity taught me. She learned it herself thanks to all those sex toys she has at home... and because she's dating one of your friends," she explained.

"Is that so? Which one of my friends did she hook up with exactly?"

"I think his name was... Hurricane Breeze?" Sunset said.

"Heh, guess I shouldn't be surprised. Hurricane's attracted a lot of attention from other girls, but never really pursued anyone. He was always the shy type. But I'm glad he's finally together with someone who appreciates him," Eternal said.

"Yeah. But now..." Sunset resumed her titjob. But Eternal wanted more than just that. His body moved on its own, grabbing Sunset's head and attempted to have her deepthroat him. Sunset giggled and went along with it, taking in every inch of his cock... barely. She held onto his thighs for support as she deepthroated him. Sunset sucked on him hard, moaning sensually while keeping her eyes locked on her lover.

Eternal was panting heavily while looking down at his bacon-haired beauty. Sunset was getting hornier the rougher Eternal was getting with her. Eternal fucked her throat even faster and was close to burst. Before he did and with a slap to his hands, Sunset popped his member from her mouth, gasping for air.

“What?” Eternal asked, “Why?”

"I think it’s time I show you… everything.” Sunset moaned as she stood up, gripping the hem of her pajama bottom and panties at once. Pulling them down past her upper hips, she let gravity do the rest as she seductively danced Eternal was awe-struck. He was now witnessing Sunset Shimmer in all of her natural, naked glory. He soon found himself falling in love with her even more than he did before.

"Sunset, you look so lovely," Eternal said.

"Care to take a taste?" she asked, spreading her pussy lips with her two fingers. "My body's ready for you."

"Sure thing. It's only fair you get the same treatment I did," Eternal said, getting on his knees. He moves closer to Sunset and starts slurping at her sensitive womanhood. Sunset's body shivered from this new feeling, but it was all the more enjoyable.

Her hands grabbed a hold of his long, red hair and pulled him in closer. Eternal slurped her lady juices more hungerly. Sunset's legs were quickly shaking, about to buckle up from the way Eternal was eating her out.

“G-Good god,” Sunset moaned, “How a-are you this good?”

"Back in Canterlot Tech, a special teacher taught us in Sex Education. Her name was Ms. Chrysalis, really nice lady," Eternal said before going back to eating out Sunset's pussy.

"She... She taught you well. B-But... does that mean you're... not a..." Sunset said.

"Oh no, I'm still a virgin. As beautiful as Chrysalis was, you're the only girl who's ever had my heart from the start," he replied. Sunset's hands pushed his face further into her groin. He slurped and flicked his tongue against her delicious juices from her folds. On some occasions, his tongue flicked against her clit. Sunset yelped and squirted all over his face.

Eternal's hands caressed her thighs and even reached behind her to squeeze her cute, plump tush, making her yelp again. Her legs got weaker and her breathing grew heavier. She was ready to blow any minute. But like she did with him, Eternal denied her the climax that she wanted to feel.

"Not so fast, Sunset. If we're gonna finish this, we're gonna finish it in style. So, would you like to start this off on top... or the bottom?" he asked.

“I’d like to be…” With the palm of her hand, Sunset pushed Eternal to the ground. THe next thing he saw was Sunset hovering over his waist with her dripping wet cunt above the tip of his shaft. “...on top.”

"Well then, you have the honors. I'm ready for you," he said. Sunset smiled down at him as she aligned her pussy. Once it was directly above Eternal's throbbing penis, she slowly descended and slid his cock deep inside her. She bit her lower lip from the slight pain she felt when her hymen was broken. Eternal looked down and saw blood trickling out of her loins. "Are you okay, did it hurt?"

"A little. But I'm happy to say... I'm not a virgin anymore and it's all thanks to you," she said. Sunset leaned down to give Eternal a warm hug and passionate kiss. Bodies united, skin to skin, lips to lips, their love had reached its peak their hands moved across their forms as moans filled the air. Their tongues wrestled inside their mouths in a loving dance fueled by lust and driven by passion.

After the pain subsided, Sunset moved her hips, bouncing up and down. Her sensual moans rang out. Eternal's dick was being squeezed tightly in Sunset's love passage. Even though it was a tad painful, Eternal still found it all the more enjoyable and more reason for Eternal to join in on the fun. He held onto her hips and thrusted upwards, pressing the tip against the entrance to her womb.

“OHHHH YEEESSSS” Sunset hoarsely moaned. Eternal panicked.

"Shhhh, not so loud, what if they heard that!" he whispered. But then, another thought crossed his mind in the heat of the moment. "Sunset, if I cum, you gotta get off quickly, I'm not wearing any protection!"

“You shouldn’t have to worry about that. Rarity was generous enough to let me have one of her birth control pills. Don’t be shy about busting a nut in me.” Sunset reassured.

Eternal's fear soon disappeared and then kept his hands locked on Sunset's hips. His own hips thrusted upwards even faster. Sunset's mind was going blank from her pussy getting stirred. Eternal looked up at Sunset's cute face and at her bountiful bosom jiggling up and down. He took one of his hands and gripped one of her breasts, groping and fondling her fleshy mound.

“Oh god does this feel like… I dunno but it’s good! Oh yes!” Eternal groaned as he thrusted himself up in Sunset. His body sweated profusely as he exerted more and more force. “How long can you go on like this?!”

"If I didn't have my limits, I would do this all night until I pass out!"

The young couple kept up their passionate love-making for another 10 minutes. Eventually, both of them were getting close to reaching their climax. Sunset's hips bounced rapidly on Eternal's lap, pressing the tip of his cock at her womb entrance repeatedly. Just to make sure no one hears them, Sunset locked her lips on Eternal's. Her hot-headed lover embraced her in a warm hug as she continued her erotic bouncing.

Soon, neither of them could hold back any longer and finally came. Sunset screamed into her boyfriend's mouth while he groaned in hers. Her love honey sprayed everywhere on his crotch while his thick semen flooded her womb. Sunset stopped bouncing and kept her hips down, swaying them left and right to get every drop of his cum inside every nook and cranny.

A few seconds after their climaxes died down their lips separated. They were short on breath, basking in the afterglow of their sweet night together.

"Oh wow... you were incredible," Eternal said between breaths, “I’d count this as one memory I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.”

“Cherish, huh?” Sunset moaned with her breathing, “After this one, I’m tapped out. But…” Sunset traces a finger across Eternal’s abs, “...I’m not opposed to a second round.”

"I still have a little bit of juice left in the tank. But first..." before finishing, he grabbed Sunset and moved her to the bottom. Now he was hovering over his exhausted lover. Her sultry gaze gave him a bigger hard-on than before. "...now, are you ready?"

"Give it to me, baby," Sunset urged. It wasn't long before the sounds of wet slaps and lewd moans came out from the two lovers.

Meanwhile, out in the docks, Twilight and Heat Blitz were just sitting next to each other, holding hands while staring at the lake and the night sky.

"Heat Blitz, how's your arm? Does it still hurt?" Twilight asked. Heat looked at his left arm, which was wrapped in a cast.

"It stings a bit whenever I move it, but other than that, it should be alright. But man, Gloriosa sure messed me up really good," Heat said, shivering from the aftermath. "I want to feel upset with her, but she had her reasons for what she did."

“People, whenever they’re backed into a corner, tend to lash out and delve into the extreme. Yet, in some cases, it’s hard to put them at fault for their actions. This place has been Gloriosa’s pride and joy, her way to make a living. To deprive one of that is to bring out their worst side.”

"You sure know a lot about that stuff. Did you have a similar experience like her?" he asked.

"Well... I... will you promise not to get mad at me?" Twilight asked.

"Cross my heart," he replied.

"Alright, here it is... some time ago, Crystal Prep and Canterlot High competed against each other in this event called The Friendship Games. My old principal, Principal Cinch, forced me to compete and find out why Canterlot High was doing better with their academics so she could guarantee my enrollment into Everton. It wasn't until later on that I realized it was Equestrian magic that I was messing with. And I made the big mistake of absorbing it into my old pendant and released it, changing me into my darker self: Midnight Sparkle," Twilight explained.

"After what happened to me earlier today, I believe you," Heat said.

"What's worse is that I broke the space around everyone, opening up these portals to this other place I never heard about. It took Sunset and the girls' help to make me see that there was another way to understand true magic. So... now that you know the truth... are you mad?" Twilight asked.

"Of course not, Twilight. It's not my style to hold a grudge. You should know by now I'm a little more merciful than other guys," Heat replied. "Everything happens for a reason, whether it's for the better or worse. And in your case, things got better for you."

“I… guess that… the world might not be as cold-hearted as I might’ve thought.” Twilight muttered, “I used to think that one monumental mistake can stain my soul for all time. Yet… here you are, trying to cheer me up.”

"I don't just cheer people up, I'm all about picking them back up when they're down and help them keep moving forward. I could never live with myself if I didn't help others in need," Heat explained, locking his fingers with Twilight's.

Twilight sighed and leaned into Heat's arm a little more, then brought her lips up to his cheek. Not another word was said from the two young lovebirds. They continued to watch the night sky and enjoy each other's company, excited for the life they'd be starting back home. Twilight couldn't wait to tell her parents about her new boyfriend. Heat didn't have to worry about telling his mom about Twilight being his girlfriend because she already knows. The only one in his family he'd rather not tell... is Blaze Burn, his father.

Let's just hope he doesn't give Eternal a tough time like before. Otherwise, he'll have to prepare for a World War 3.

Meanwhile, back with Eternal and Sunset, the love birds were exhausted after a 2nd round of passionate love-making. Sunset's arms were wrapped around Eternal, hugging him tight. Eternal's breathing was heavy and who could blame him or Sunset?

"Hey, Eternal. Think you can hear me out for a second?" Sunset asked between breaths.

"Sure, what is it?" he asked as he laid down next to her.

"Listen, I love you very much and I loved what we did, but... I think we should take it nice and slow so we don't take any big jumps too early," Sunset implied.

"I'm starting to wonder if you're psychic, because that's been on my mind for a while now. I won't deny what we did, I'll treasure for the rest of my life, but you're right. I think it's better to take it one step at a time,” he agreed.

Sunset sighed and cuddled up to Eternal, nuzzling him cheek to cheek. Humming softly as they felt their heartbeats they held their naked bodies close as their eyes felt heavy. Having just consummated their love for one another, it was the perfect way to top their night of passion. Just them sleeping inside a tent underneath the light of the stars was a good enough treat.

"You know... we should probably head back before the others find us out here in our birthday suits and we'll never hear the end of it from our principals," Sunset whispered.

"And my... mother," Eternal replied before opening his eyes back up. He went over and grabbed his clothes, then put them back on. Sunset grabbed her pajamas and got herself dressed. One that's done, they were about to head back when suddenly...

"Whoops!" Sunset yelped before falling down. Eternal looked towards his girlfriend, alarmed and went to check on her. "I guess I can't walk right after you rammed that thing inside me so hard. Think you can carry me?"

Eternal chuckled and kneeled down. "Sure, hold on tight." And so he grabbed Sunset, picking her up bridal style, then carried her back to camp.
