The party

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Present day...

Adam was back on Earth; carrying on with life as normal.

The boy was doing his job as the wall crawler, "What is it Olessia, I'm picking up a birthday present." he said to his commander on the commlink. The O.S.C director replied; "Adam; one of you old foes is trashing the town centre, you have to stop him." Spiderman simply sighed and then swung his way to the scene.

Upon arrival; the police were trying to hold back the beast shooting acid from his deadly tail, "That's right people, the Scorpion is back." the villain cried. Adam leaped in front of the police; the cops threw him a mega-phone, "Scorpion; how many time have we done this? You need to pack up your little performance and go back to the Raft." he said into the speaker.

Scorpion's claws began to grow from his fingers, "This time; I'm going to tear you apart." the villain then charged towards the hero with anger in his leap. Adam had on chance; he jump into the air and webbed a sewer lid, "Batter up." the boy said as he swung the lid at Scorpion's face. The villain was thrown to the side; but quickly got back up.

With his tail; Scorpion slashed at Adam, trying to sting him. But Spidey was quick and swung around the tail like it was monkey-bars at a play-park. With one final swing, Adam delivered one hard kick to Scorpion's face; knocking him right out.

Spiderman looked down on the beaten criminal; until O.S.C soldiers came. They placed Scorpion in power-damping cuffs, making his strength and speed; useless. "Thanks for the hand, Spiderman." The captain said. Adam replied with, "No problem officer, just doing my job." Before anyone could say anything else, Adam looked at his watch. "Sweet apple cider, I'm late." Spidey wasted no more time, he leaped onto a building and began crawling away. The soldiers just took Scorpion back to prison.

===============================================

Adam had to be fast, he didn't want to miss the party. He contacted Daniel on his communicator, "Danny, I need a Space Bridge to Equestria. Now." he explained. "Send it to these coordinates."

Spidey began swinging as fast as he could; all the while, music started playing.

'Got to do it, got to do it.
Got to beat the clock before the chime.
Got to sort it, got to sort it.
Got to get there in time.'

'I'm like a busy bee, I've got to beat that clock.
I'm gonna get to party, before I finish this song.'

Over the communicator; Adam heard Olessia and Daniel joining in.

'Do we think he's gonna do it?
Will he finish what he has begun?
Will you know how to fix it?
Will you get there before time is done?'

The portal opened just down the street, Adam was seconds away.

'Got to sort it, got to sort it.
Got to beat the clock before the chime.
Got to do it, got to do it.
Got to get there in time.'

'I'm like a busy bee, I've got to beat that clock.
I'm get to the portal before I finish this song.'

With those last words, Adam leaped through the portal and landed outside Screwball and Mothball's house. "And that is how you do that." he stated.

==================================================

Adam knocked on the door after his Nano-tech suit return the emblem on his chest; he put the emblem in his pocket and was now wearing a smart shirt with jeans. When the front door opened; Adam was greeted by the Changeling father, "Mothball, how are yah?" the boy asked. They greeted each other with hoove and hand shake, Mothball replied, "Great, I'm so glad you could make it. I know Identity will be happy to see you." They both went inside and joined the party.

Chaotic and Identity were turning 3 ears old, they didn't really have any friends; so it was just adults that came to their party. You had Fluttershy and Discord, Dinky and Cinnamon Sticks, Screwball and Mothball (obviously), Zany; who was now 8 years & Trixie (Bellatrix); and her daughter Moonbeam.

When the human walked into the room; Screwball was the first to notice him, "Adam." she greeted. She embraced him in a kind hug; then the two trouble makers came. "Uncle Adam." the twins cheered. The boy didn't have time to catch them as they leaped onto of him. "Okay, okay, it's good to see you to." he said. "How are my little god-children?" they two foals cuddled close to the human, Adam couldn't help but be happy at the beautiful site.

They party was pretty fun; Zany played with the twins, while the adults spoke about things. All except Screwball, she was up stairs in her bedroom; looking at old family photos. One by one; she pulled the pictures from the box, they were from her childhood. The pictures started to make the mare cry, she hated the idea that she was growing up so fast. Mothball walked into the room and found his wife crying on the bed.

"Screwy, what's wrong?" he asked while stroking her mane. The pony sat up straight and explained, "Mothy; you know I love our children, but it's all happening so fast. I kind of wish life would slow down." her husband understood; to him, it only felt like yesterday when he saw Screwball playing pirates on he chocolate lake. Mothball turned her face towards his and explained, "It doesn't matter how fast or how slow life goes, what matters is were doing it as a family." Screwball smiled before she locked her lips with Mothball's.

Downstairs; Adam walked outside for some fresh air, he couldn't believe it. All he ever wished for was that Screwball would be happy; and now she has her own family. It's been a long road over the past seven years; the whole thing with Mysterio & the infinity stones, protecting Equestria as Power Rangers, the Infinity War & Endgame crisis and then the Battle of the Nightside. Still; all problems overcome by him and his friends.

=================================================

It was time for everypony to leave; one by one the guests started to leave, until only Adam was left. "Well I'd better head back to Earth." the boy stated. Before the boy opened the door, Mothball turned to him and said, "You could crash on the couch, it's a bit late for you to leave." Adam was thankful for the offer but he couldn't do that to them.

"No Mothy, I couldn't do that to you and Screwy. Not with you little nippers to look after."

Screwball was upstairs, putting the twins to bed. "Good night my darlings." Before she left the room; Chaotic asked, "Can you sing us your lullaby Mommy?" Screwy turned to her son, "Okay, but it'll have to be the short version." The mare then made her music-box appear, she sang almost as beautifully as her mother.

'Please do not cry, my dears.
Your Mommy is so very here.
And if any pony, causes you any harm or fear.
The I will bring them pain.
And drown them all in chocolate rain.'

Identity and Chaotic giggle at that last sentence.

'Cause I..... am your Mommy, Screwball.
And you..... are pieces of me.'

The twins drifted of to sleep, their mother quietly left the room. Screwball went downstairs to find Mothball and Adam talking on the couch. "It's fine Mothball, I'll call Daniel and tell to send me a Space Bridge. I'll be home in time to watch 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." Mothball looked at him confused about the TV show he just mentioned, "What's that about?" Adam simply replied, "I don't know; some television show that some old geezer made based of you mother-in-law's adventures with her friends."

They two boys didn't notice Screwball walk into the room, "What are you two talking about?" Mothball turned to his wife and explained, "I'm offering to let Adam sleep on the couch, because it looks too late to leave." Adam saw there was no point in arguing with couple, so he spent the night at their house. The married pair went to their bedroom and the human passed out on their couch.

For the rest of the night, all was peaceful.
