Chapters What any husband would do
Author's Note
This is dedicated to Israel Yabuki and every single fan who admires the Mane 6.
Watch as their husbands defends them. Oh, and wait till you read what Rarity's husband Silver had done to the two ponies in the end. I think you'll recognize the reference.
Putting Your Foot Down
The Ponyville train station was quiet and about like what any train would do. Then arriving on time, the Ponyville train express arrived straight from Canterlot. The moment the train carts had opened its doors, seven figures, seven humans, six men and one woman, ran out the moment they saw an opportunity. They were none other than the Mane 6’s husbands. Beau, husband of Twilight. Bucky, husband of Applejack. Silver, husband of Rarity. Genus, husband of Fluttershy. Bolt, husband of Rainbow Dash. And Frosty, husband of Pinkie Pie, with his sister Emily in tow.
“I really hope we’re not too late.” said Emily whilst they ran.
“You don’t have to tell me twice.” said Genus, as he was just as worried.
Bolt was the first to arrive at the scene, but was shocked to see what was going on. “Uh, guys?” he said the moment they arrived with him “I think we have a problem.”
The moment they arrived, they were all shocked when they saw what was happening. Many so called admirers (But you know them as stuff up critics), were all arguing of who is best, and some who disliked Rarity and Fluttershy, which made Silver and Genus angry just by looking at them. But don’t get me started on Frosty or Bolt.
“Oh I knew this would happen.” said Bolt “I had no idea what Twilight was thinking.”
“Hey, watch it.” said Beau ‘twilight and the others only made the journal because they wanted others to learn more about maintaining friendships and to make them realize that when it comes to problems, they’re not alone.”
‘she thought as a Princess but she didn’t think like a writer or a publisher.” said Emily.
“Emily’s right.” said Silver “Back when I was younger before I lost my parents, we spent some time with some writers in the past. They think carefully about what they write, and they also write something before they wrote the rest of the book.”
“Like what?” asked Frosty.
““This book is based on actual events. All characters that were written in this book are actual and real live characters that have been interviewed and desired to share their experience to those who would want a friend” “. said Bucky, gaining Emily and the guys” attention. “What, I read too ya know. I don’t get why she didn’t write something like that in the first place.”
“No kidding,” said Genus “Why else did you think we asked Princess Celestia to ask the Ponyville military to take those journals off of the shelves and restore order because of the critics.”
“Guys, look.” said Bolt.
All of them looked and saw their wives walking back inside of the castle. Distraught, hurt and above all else, discouraged. “Oh, those poor girls.”
Emily noticed that the guys were now enraged, for now it was on. “Oh really?” said Beau as he and the husbands walked towards them “We’ll see about that.”
Back inside the Castle of Friendship
The girls groaned after they were inside. ‘so that just happened.” said Rainbow.
“Girls,” said Starlight “I found two ponies who have something I think you should hear.”
From around the corner, were two fillies named Coconut Cream and Toola Roola, ones that Twilight recognized from earlier, stood next to Starlight as they smiled.
“Um, we just wanted to say thank you. To all of you.” said Toola Roola.
“Yeah,” said Coconut Cream with a smile of her own “Our friendship? Well, we were having trouble until we read your journal. It showed us that friends can go through all sorts of tough times and come through stronger than before.”
“It made us better friends than we’ve ever been.” said Roola Toola as she placed her hoof over her friends” shoulder.
‘really?” said Twilight with a hopeful smile.
‘mm-hmm.” said the two fillies as they held each other close, with Starlight standing next to them.
“Oh, I can’t tell you how much it means to hear that.” said Twilight as she and her friends feel relieved and happy ‘thank you for telling us. We’ve had a tough couple of days, but knowing we’ve helped fillies like you…”
“Yeah,” said Applejack as she and her friends feel hopeful too “It makes everything we’ve been through worth it.”
“Absolutely” said Rarity, no longer stressing and smiled normally “Fads come and go. Friendship is forever.”
Rainbow, back to her ego self, said “There are worse things than not being able to do anything without being told I’m awesome.”
“And we can’t change the way other ponies think about us.” said Fluttershy, no longer feeling discouraged “But we can change how we let it affect us.”
“Or how we don’t let it affect us.” said Pinkie as she instantly chucked a pie in her face. She giggled, back to her old self, when she said “Go ahead! Laugh!”
Everyone in the room started to laugh as the Mane 6 started to hug, with Starlight relieved that they were back to normal. Well, almost, until Applejack said ‘reckon we have to deal with them , don’t we?”
They noticed the ponies outside were still arguing outside. Twilight just shrugged it off as she said ‘stay in the friendship moment Applejack. They can wait a little longer.”
As they continued their embrace, they suddenly heard a loud scream that said ‘shut the fuck up!!! ”
The Mane six, even Starlight, Coconut Cream and Toola Roola, were startled by the loud scream. “Beau?” said Twilight as she was surprised to hear his voice “I thought he was still in Canterlot with Princess Celestia.”
“He must’ve come back early.” said Starlight.
The ponies went over to the window, and to their surprise, it wasn’t just Beau, but Bucky, Silver, Genus, Bolt, Frosty and Emily, who all gained the so called admirer’s attention and had some harsh words for them, with Beau saying “What the fuck is going on here?!!!”
“We’re here to…” said one of the ponies.
‘stuff it fuck face!!” shouted Bolt, causing them to be silent.
Frosty looked at his sister and gave her a communication stone, a stone that will allow to contact anypony throughout Equestria. He signaled her to broadcast this all over Equestria, which she did. Sure enough, every pony began to see what the Mane 6’s husbands wanted to show them.
Beau then walked up to the reporter pony from the Canterlot Chronicle. “I hear you were the one who thinks my wife is a character.”
“Yes, from the…” said the pony, only to be interrupted.
“The pony you think is a character, happens to be my wife.” said Beau as he gave him a very dirty look.
“Your wife, really?” said the reporter as he didn’t believe him “Who would want to marry a hairless…”
That did it, it set Beau off and gave him a hard punch in the nose, breaking it in the process, shocking many ponies, even the Mane 6. Beau then grabbed the reporter by the shirt whilst the reporter’s nose was still bleeding and pulled him straight towards his face. And ended up telling him what he went through ever since they tried to set the public straight and they didn’t listen.
“You listen here you worthless deadweight!!” shouted Beau “Ever since the journal had been published, we’ve been run over by a cart, been dragged around a city butt naked, threaten by an angry mob, had our heads set on fire, attacked by angry animals, beaten up by a very large woman, we’ve been wrapped in a potato bag, nearly starved to death, and now you’re treating our wives like garbage, so if you don’t shut up with your crazy shenanigans and listen to what I have to say, I will do something not nice!!!!!! ”
And that moment, the reporter pony wet his pants when he saw how angry Beau was, with him quickly nodding and stood up, then took out his notebook and wrote everything down of what they had to say.
“You wanna know the reason why they printed those journals?” said Beau as he looked at the ungrateful idiots. “They wrote those journals to write down their experiences to remember their adventures and learn to remember to keep their friendships strong. They made copies of it so that all of you could learn from their experiences and help become better friends, not just yourselves, but to those around you. Instead all of you are so focused on them, that all of you are missing the whole point of the lessons they tried to teach you.”
“Yeah,” said Bolt “It’s obvious of the messages they were trying to send, but all of you are too dumb to realize that!!”
Everypony gasped at what Bolt said, with him saying “Yeah, you heard me.”
“All of you are extremely prejudice and have no respect for others,” said Silver “Just like all of you judged Zacora, even when you didn’t know her. And not to mention a long time ago, all of you had mistreated Discord so much, it was the exact reason why he went on a rampage against all of you in the first place.”
“No wonder every creature beyond Equestria’s borders hated Pony kind,” said Frosty “And given what we’ve seen what you did to our wives and the rest of our friends, so do we.”
That again shocked them.
“You wanna know why we hate you lot so much?” said Bolt as he took a step forward “Okay then, I’ll tell you.”
But before anyone could react, Genus took a step forward. Though he too is a kind and gentle spirit like Fluttershy, many know how scary she can be when she’s angry. But now for the first time, they were going to see how angry he is as he told them off.
“All of you are the worst ponies I know” said Genus as he started “You constantly criticize Twilight and her friends wherever they go, the seven of them saved all of you from death and destruction from the likes of Tirek, Chrysalis and many other monsters and this is how you repay them? And to add insult to injury, you have the gall to insult them behind all of their backs. And all of you are such sponges and tools, you ask and pay them for nothing in return, you always say that you’ll gladly help and repay their help in return, but that never came or happened. And what really bothers me, is that all of you pretend that all of you are big shots and care about others, when all what all of you do is mess things up that others have to clean up your messes and falsely blame others for something they didn’t do because all of you are too lazy or stupid to do anything. Yeah, Twilight and the others may have also made mistakes in the past, but at least they’re honest about it. They don’t go around being a nuisance around everypony else and lecture them about how both Filthy Rich and Spoilt Milk happens to be profound business intellectuals. They weren’t, they were a bunch of spoiled brats. And it’s no wonder all of you like them so much, because you’re obsessed with the same cruddy products like baby foals sucking on their momma’s teats from what they sell. Darn it all of you are so pretentious. And all of you delude yourselves by thinking that all of you have made a difference in helping making Equestria into a better place, even though it’s not. And it’s no wonder Princess Celestia never bothered to write all of you letters and say thank you in person, she would’ve known there’s no such thing as being perfect. And what I really hate most about all of you, is the fact all of you think you can judge many ponies and other beings from all over the kingdoms because all of them are different from you, how powerful tyrants attempted to take over, how the poor suffer with no food, water or any means of survival. Well what have all of you done to help!! Twilight, her friends and I constantly go around helping those in need, we’ve never seen you morons over there, you wanna help, stop being selfish!! Oh and by the way, having all the bits, kingdoms and cities and whatever doesn’t exactly make all of you Princess Celestia. Oh, wait, all of you don’t believe in Princess Celestia’s rule or her faith in helping her fellow Ponies, or any of the Princesses of all of Equestria for that matter; because “royalty and ruling is for idiots”. Well who the heck are all of you to talk down to anypony?!! You failed to protect Equestria and run away like cowards like five hundred times whilst your homes and lands are destroyed, which doesn’t come near as bad to all of your failures as family and friends!!! How the heck are all of your family and friends that all of you never bothered to see if they were alright?!! And you know what, I would’ve forgiven and help you with it, all of it. If all of you weren’t such bores and selfish ingrates. That’s the worst of it you lot. All of you are just a bunch of big, sad, pathetic, poor excuse of a pony kingdom, bores and selfish ingrates.
Many of the ponies were shocked over what Genus had said, with some of them who’s feelings have been hurt. But from inside the Castle of Friendship, the Mane 6, Spike and Starlight were just as surprised, especially Fluttershy, for she had never seen Genus like that since they day they met. Genus walked over to the woman, Lemon Chiffon, who criticized Fluttershy because of her Inconsistent assertiveness.
“I don’t like the way you’ve been talking about my wife.” he started and gave her his own version of the stare, which frightened her. “Fluttershy’s not like you because she’s not comfortable with things around her. If you had any brain cells you would’ve realized that. She was bullied a lot back in Flight School when she was little, and she was so scared, she couldn’t make another friend. Why else did you think she’d prefer the company of animals. You ever heard of Autism? It’s a condition that someone develops that when you’re in their position and it’s so bad, so bad, that you won’t be able to communicate or interact with someone. You can’t just overcome it overnight. It’s a long and slow process and she wouldn’t have been like this if you lot hand fucked up the situation any further.”
“Oh please,” said Glasses Stallion “What would you know about…”
And just like that, Genus back handed the stallion in the face, making him collapse onto the ground, shocking everypony, but not as shocked as Twilight and the others were when they saw him. Genus stood over the pony as he watched him in shock.
“Because I used to be like her when I was little,” said Genus as he spoke to him whilst he grabbed his shirt and pulled him right towards his face “But if it weren’t for the encouragement of my friends, I wouldn’t be who and how I am today. And you wonder why your son ran away from you years ago when he had Autism and you ended up beating him over it.
That part, even the ponies that knew Glasses Stallion, shocked them greatly. With Lemon Chiffon saying “What?”
“Yeah, you heard me,” said Genus as he looked at her “I bumped into him a few months ago and he told me everything, why else did you think he filed a restraining order against you and the court told you that you weren’t to come within a hundred and fifty feet of him.”
That part shocked the female pony. Silver then walked up to Diamond Cutter and Daisy, along with other ponies who didn’t like her. And from the look on his face, he was the angriest of all.
“And you!!” he said as he placed his finger against his nose. “How dare you treat my wife like that!! What did she ever do to you?!! Sure she may be like that, but that doesn’t give you the right or reason or even an excuse to just judge her or boycotting her fashion, I mean what would you know, if you’ve got nothing but poor fashion sense.”
“Oh like we’re supposed to…” said Diamond Cutter, but he was cut off when Silver punched him in the neck, making him gag as he couldn’t breathe.
“As I was saying,” said Silver, but then continued where he left off. ‘sure she may act like that, but she’s not selfish, she’s one of the most generous ponies I know. If you’d even read her entry from the journal, Suri Polomare was the one who was selfish, who stole Rarity’s ideas and tried to claim she was the one who did it, if you wanted to blame someone blame her. Not to mention she even risked her life trying to save her sister, my sister-in-law, when Chrysalis, the former queen of the Changelings, kidnapped her and the rest of the Cutie Mark Crusaders. She works and slaves away none stop, working her fingers and magic to the bone, trying to satisfy you ungrateful lot, not to mention so that she could make sure that her sister and family has food on the table, a roof over their head and pays for Sweetie Belle’s education so that she could have a future.”
The Mane Six were surprised to hear this, then looked at Rarity, but Rarity was focused on her husband, who was busy defending her from the ungrateful.
“Not to mention, all of you are so stupid,” said Silver as he continued “You wouldn’t know how to run a business and take care of your family, because if you did, then you’d know, that it’s a full time back breaking grind, just to try to make a few bits profit to provide for their friends and family, not something you do on the side, like some kind of hobby, because you think you know a thing or two of how to run a business or take care of a member of their family. Cause any schmuck, who tries to put on clothes every day and raising a kid right, think they’re some kind of expert. But you’re not special, you’re not even average. She’s one of the kindest and most generous ponies I know, what have you done besides being stuck up, huh? She works hard trying to please all of you, and this is the thanks she gets.”
Diamond Cutter was able to clear his throat, but he was still being horrible to Rarity “Oh please, what would that whore know about…”
Now that part, set him off. Silver took a step forward and placed a hand on his shoulder. ‘do you know how to play golf?” said Silver with an evil sneer.
“Uh, what?” said Diamond Cutter, not liking the look in Silver’s eyes.
And within a split second, Silver looked at Daisy’s sign that she was holding, grabbed it, and gave a hard sock against Diamond Cutter’s groin and balls, making Diamond Cutter wince in pain and ended up on his knees, making most of the male ponies wince when they saw what happened.
“Then why don’t you get yourself some fucking golf clubs.” said Silver, with Diamond Cutter standing on his knees. “But if you still want lessons…Fore!!!”
And with one huge swing, he struck the sign against his face, making Diamond Cutter collapse on the ground, with many Ponies shocked by what he did, even Rarity. As Diamond Cutter groaned in pain, Silver said “And like I said; nobody screws my wife.”
Silver tossed the broken sign away as he said “First of all, there’s nothing wrong with who Rarity is. Second of all, if you’d pay close attention, she helped everypony to reach their potential and helped others be what they were meant to be and helped them whilst others treated them like dirt. That’s real generosity, unlike some ponies I know.”
Silver then looked at Daisy, whom he was disgusted at the most “And Daisy, what’s wrong with you? You’ve been friends with Rarity for years, she’s one of your best customers, even bought every flower you had when she made them for her Spring Collection last year. And this is how you repay her; slandering her and said she didn’t deserve to be in the journal. If anyone who doesn’t deserve a business or friend it’s you.”
Silver then grabbed her by the shirt, frightening her as he said “If you don’t treat her with respect and apologize, I’ll go over to your shop and step and burn every single flower you ever grew or own.”
Daisy was shocked by what he would do as she said “You wouldn’t do that.”
“Oh yes I would,” said Silver as he showed Daisy her flowers, the one he bought when he and Rarity wanted to have a picnic when their baby Crystal Gem was born, to which Daisy recognized. ‘starting with this!!”
Silver tossed her flowers on the ground and stomped on it like an elephant and rhino would, much to Daisy’s so called horror.
“My flowers!!” exclaimed Daisy “Oh the horror, the ho…”
Silver grabbed her mouth, picked up the stepped on flowers and shoved it in her mouth, with him saying “Will you stop saying that, they’re just flowers. You wouldn’t know horror if someone got beheaded. No wonder Roseluck thought you were annoying and stopped working with you.”
Daisy was shocked by what he said, causing him to shove her sideways, for now she was really scared. After Emily was able to pull Silver away to calm him down, Frosty had his turn and spoke to those who kept laughing at Pinkie Pie.
“And seriously Sassafras?” said Frosty.
“That’s…” the pony as she wanted him to say her name right.
“I don’t care!!!” shouted Frosty, causing the pony to wince in fright. He looked at her and a few others as he said “What’s wrong with you? You laugh at Pinkie at everything she does without her even trying, do you have any idea how annoying and unnerving that is? Do you have any idea how ungrateful all of you are?”
Frosty then walked back and forth, trying to sort things out with them. “When she was a filly, she saw a rainbow that brought her joy, which earned her cutie mark because she wanted to share her happiness and laughter with all of you. She came to Ponyville, she helped others laugh, she hosted parties for those around her, she gave them gifts, she gave them hope, she taught them what it meant to be happy. And what do all of you do, you make her feel like a failure, devalued her as a friend, even making her unhappy, especially when she kept a promise to a friend to always keep smiling moments before he died.”
Many were surprised to hear that, but none were more surprised than the Mane 6 and Starlight. Pinkie was surprised that he knew about that, whilst he continued speaking to the crowd.
Frosty continued as he said ‘she met a young colt named Sunny. When she was visiting her mother in the hospital, he was an orphan and he had cancer. Before he died, she promised him, on his deathbed, that she would always keep smiling and help others in any way she can. And every smile she brings, she lives up to a last dying wish. And if you lot don’t see it that way, then you don’t deserve to be happy. You should be ashamed of yourselves for tarnishing that pony’s dream.”
Those who kept laughing at Pinkie by every word she said were shocked beyond words, for they had no idea why she kept throwing parties and wanted others to laugh and smile. Now that they do know, they felt guilt written and discouraged. The rest of the Mane 6 comforted Pinkie whilst she slowly shed tears, remembering that night when Sunny passed away.
Now it was Bolt’s turn, and he was not in the very least in the mood. He looked at the fillies up there, they were at first frightened at Beau, Silver and Genus, they didn’t want to imagine what he would be like.
“And seriously?” said Bolt as he looked at the fillies and a handful of other ponies who were fixated on Rainbow “What’s the matter with you lot, didn’t your mothers ever teach you not to harass or annoy anypony else?”
Bolt then pointed at the ground as he said ‘sit down.”
At first, they didn’t want to, until Bolt stepped on his cloud and flew right towards them, were standing above them and shouted “I said sit down!!!”
Immediately obeying him, the fillies and handful of others sat down on the ground as quick as they could. Bolt immediately hovered low enough, stepped off of his cloud, and spoke directly at them.
“Rainbow Dash is cool and all, yes,” said Bolt as he spoke down to them “But harassing her and mistreating her friends like that is uncool. If you had actually paid attention to the journal, it’s because of her friends she became a Wonderbolt and helped her make her dreams come true, and every day she thanked them by being there for them. She may have an ego, but at least she’s trying, and at least she’s honest about it. She wouldn’t be here without her friends. That’s why she admires them, because they’re like the sisters she never had.”
Again, the rest of the Mane 6 and Starlight were surprised, for they had no idea Rainbow felt about them that way, with Rainbow blushing because she doesn’t like to talk about things like that.
Bolt continued further as he scolded them. “You wanna know how she’s cool? She learnt to tell the truth from Applejack, even if she didn’t or couldn’t. She laughed because of Pinkie and her sense of humor, she learned to be kind to folks like Scootaloo and Fluttershy, she learned to like the finer things in life and be generous like Rarity, and it was because of Twilight she became a better friend. You know nothing of friendship or loyalty, and she’d never abandon them. At least she does her best, what have all of you done that was so great, I’ll tell you what…”
Bolt picked up a Pegasus filly named Erriora by her shirt as he said to her in his coldest stare “Nothing.”
He dropped her as she sat back down, cowering in fear. Bolt continued on as he said “At least Scootaloo, president of Rainbow Dash’s fan club, knows better. She admires and all and both Dash’s parents and Scootaloo support her but even they know when to give her space. If they want to hang out, they’d ask her. They chose to support her and not be constantly in their faces, that’s true loyalty and a true friend.”
Bolt then crouched as he looked at them face to face as he said “But then again all of you are just a bunch of stupid kids, you don’t know any better.”
The fillies looked away, now they feel ashamed, for Bolt was right. As Bolt backed away, now it was Bucky’s turn, and considering what the ponies did at Sweet Apple Acres, he was not happy or satisfied.
“And are you all really that much out of your minds?!” shouted Bucky at the so called admirers “Just because Applejack wrote that friends are like family, doesn’t mean that you are family. I mean come on, you’re not our family, you’re not our friends, heck, we don’t even know any of you!!”
Bucky then grabbed one of the Apple Admirers as he said “And how dare you come onto our property and eat what doesn’t belong to you. Why I have the right mind to skin you alive. And back where we come from, humans also eat ponies.”
The Admirers were shocked by what he said, causing Bucky to throw him over Jujitsu style against another apple admirer. Bucky then began to say his piece as he looked at them angrily.
“They are not just some average farmer or anypony.” said Bucky “They happen to be the Apple family, a family that had worked on their farm ever since Granny Smith, my wife’s grandmother, was just a filly. They worked hard, they slave away, producing all the apples they could harvest and sold what they could to you and those in need. It’s because of them, they helped found Ponyville and made the town what it is today. All of the ponies in Ponyville live here because of them, you should be thanking them for giving you a place to live and found a beautiful town, to be happy, not free load and take things that don’t belong to you. Only the Apple Family have a say in matters, and the last time I see, you’re no apple, you’re nothing but worthless pieces of shit, who wouldn’t know a good apple if someone were to shove it up your asses!!! You’re lucky that the guards were merciful when they kicked you lot out, because after what you lot done, they should’ve arrested all of you for trespassing and sent you to jail.”
The Admirers” ears drooped, for some of them hadn’t realize that, and now that they nearly ate their stuff that nearly left them bankrupt. Applejack was surprised that Bucky was not only protecting her home, but the heritage of the Apple family themselves.
“Who do you think you are,” said Bucky as he continued “Judging them for the things they do, huh? The Apple families coming and going or dying, making sure things that everything they grew is ripe for the harvest to feed you sorry lot, providing for those in need, slaving for years, working their fingers to the bone. You’re not Apple Family. So if I were you, I’d give them some decency and respect, if not and so help me, I will tear each and every single one of your hairs, tails and manes off, pour it all in your coffees, teas and milkshakes, and watch you drink it!!!”
Many were now scared and whimpered, for now they were really afraid of him now. Now it was Beau’s turn, and he’s far from finished with them.
“And excuse me?” said Beau to the reporter and the elderly named Pearly Stitch “‘twilight was more interesting without wings and would’ve been more interesting if she stayed in Canterlot”? Are you for real wrinkle tits!!”
That part shocked the elderly mare, with Twilight gasping as she covered her mouth, barely believing what Beau just said.
“If you had paid close attention to the news and all,” said Beau as he explained “Princess Celestia was the one who ordered her to leave Canterlot for both the Summer Sun Celebration and to make friends. Back then she didn’t want any friends, because she thought she didn’t need it and thought they were a waste of time, but she ended up being wrong in the end. Because of that, she was able to learn a lot from her friends; being honest with others, being kind to others, being generous to others, being able to laugh with friends, being loyal to them and not to abandon them. Because of it, she worked hard, she studied, she made friends, made new discoveries, thus in turn, because of the Princess worthy deed, she earned the title of Princess.”
Beau then looked at the reporter pony as he held onto a newspaper. “And seriously, you thought she was a character? If she was, why would she be on the papers that you printed yourself, you idiot!!!” shouted Beau as he shoved the paper against the pony’s face.
“Now because of that,” said Beau as he continued ‘she and her friends were able to go beyond their lands to make friends with those who thought the same as her. And what do you lot do? You disrespected her, whereas the nobles of Canterlot thought that she was a pathetic joke. She’s one of the high ranking rulers, and as thus, you will show her respect. She helped those in need and helped others in need. Sure you may have a few problems with that, but she had done better than any of you standing here.”
Twilight was surprised that her husband is defending her like that, and also amazed. And as such, Emily had her turn as she said “They may be different, but it’s because of the very differences between them that makes their friendships strong. No one’s perfect. A wise man back on my world once said “The thing about perfection, is that it’s unknowable. It’s impossible, but it’s also, right in front of us all the time”, that’s how the world truly is. But all of you are so stuck up about it, you failed to realize and remember what they did for each and every one of us.”
And one by one, the husbands told them of the good they did in the past.
“They stopped Nightmare Moon after her thousand year banishment and saved Princess Luna from her own darkness.” said Frosty.
“They stopped Discord from taking over Equestria and was reformed by my wife.” said Genus.
“They stopped Chrysalis from taking over Canterlot alongside Shining Armour and Princess Cadance and saved everypony in Equestria.” said Bolt.
“They alongside Spike stopped Sombra from taking over the Crystal Empire and saved the Crystal Ponies from slavery.” said Silver
“They stopped Tirek from draining the magic in Equestria and destroyed everything in his path.” said Bucky.
“They helped saved both Trixie Lulamoon and Starlight Glimmer from themselves when they thought friendship was beyond them.” said Beau “They had showed the value of friendship through Equestria and the neighboring kingdoms and jumped into danger with no thought for themselves. They’re heroes. More importantly, they’re guardians of Equestria, and also a friend.”
Beau ended up smiling widely as he said “And we’re the only ones who think so.”
And one by one, everypony whom the Mane 6 met and helped in the past arrived, and none of them are happy.
Pinkie’s parents and sisters, Zecora, the Cakes, Party Favor, Prince Rutherford and a handful of Yaks, Pipsqueak, Roseluck, Gilda, Cranky Doodle, Matilda, Cheese Sandwich, Gummy, Fluttershy’s parents and brother, Nurse Redheart, Doctor Hooves, Lyra, Bonbon, Big Daddy McColt, along with the entire Hooffields and McColt family, Angel Bunny, Gilda Griffon, Seabreeze and her fellow Breezies, Dr. Fauna, Discord, Mayor Mare, Tree Hugger, Rainbow Dash’s parents, Aloe and her sister, Double Diamond, Night Glider, Octavia, Vinyl Scratch, Rumble, Tank, Spitfire and her fellow Wonderbolts, Derpy, Snips, Snails, Daring Do, Quibble Pants, Granny Smith, Winona, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, the entire Apple and Pear family, Rara, Braeburn, Trouble Shoes, Cherry Jubilee, Babs Seed, Little Strongheart, Burnt Oak, Rarity’s parents, Opel, Photo Finish, Hoity Toity, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Miss Cheerilee, Coco Pommel, Sassy Saddles, Fancy Pants, Fleur, Saffron Masala and her father Coriander, Princess Ember, Berry Punch, Plaid Stripes, Twilight’s parents, Owlowiscious, Prince Thorax, Sunburst, Trixie, Spike, Sunset Shimmer, Moon Dancer, Minuette, Lemon Hearts, Twinkle Shine, Cadance, Shining Armour, Flurry Heart, along with, to all of their fears, Celestia and Luna, along with their husbands.
Now the critics and so called admirers were in for it, for now they were scared, even Twilight and the others were surprised to see them. Sure enough, Twilight and the others quickly ran outside and rejoined Princess Celestia.
“Princess Celestia!” called Twilight out as she and the others ran over to her.
‘twilight,” said Celestia as she hugged her former student “Are you hurt?”
“Physically, no” said Twilight “But I’m afraid it’s emotionally.”
‘do not worry, we will handle this.” said Luna as she reassured them.
The two rulers looked at the mob, both of them disappointed. “In all of my years ruling Equestria, I have never been this disappointed.” said Celestia, her cold gaze not fading away.
“But your highness…” said Lemon Chiffon “We were only trying to…”
‘silence!!!!” shouted Luna in her traditional royal Canterlot voice, causing many to cower.
Fancy Pants was the first to respond as he looked at Diamond Cutter and Daisy “And seriously you two, I have never met such abhorrent ponies in all my life. Rarity is well respected among the Canterlot society and Nobility, I mean you’re part of the high society’s respected Nobles, the least you could do is act with dignity.”
“He’s right,” said Coco Pommel “Rarity is one of the most generous ponies I’ve ever met, who helped me get to where I am today when nopony else believed in me.”
‘she even helped me see things clearly when I was too blind to see it.” said Sassy Saddles.
“And if it were not for her, our restaurant wouldn’t be so popular in Canterlot.” said Coriander.
“And we thank her every day and invited both her friends and family over as our way of saying thanks.” said Saffron Masala.
“Agh, all of you are a disgrace!” said Photo Finish.
“Indeed.” said Hoity Toity in his disappointed tone.
Next up was Pinkie Pie’s family, with Limestone speaking for them “You dare laugh at my sister like that when she wasn’t even trying? She’s done our family proud and we’re proud to be her sisters.”
‘mm-Hmm” said Marble in her angry tone.
“That’s right.” said Maud in her dead expression.
“Normally when others tease, I let that by with ease,” said Zecora “But when others are tough on our friends, then we had enough.”
“Normally Yaks don’t interfere with pony matters,” said Prince Rutherford “But if ponies treat pony friend of yaks badly, Yaks will not stand for that!!!!”
The ponies were now frightened of the Yaks as they saw them growl.
“I just can’t believe you guys!” said Scootaloo “You guys are the same age as me, and even I know when to treat Rainbow with respect. If I wanted to hang out, I’d ask for it.”
“That’s right,” said Windy Whistles “Even we know when to give our daughter space whenever she feels that way.”
‘dash has a lot to learn yes,” said Spitfire “But she saved us all a dozen times where we failed to do in the past. The Wonderbolts are honored to have her among our ranks. And if you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us.”
Up next were the ones who supported Fluttershy.
“We don’t like what you lot done to our friend.” said one of the Hooffields.
“That’s right,” said Big Daddy McColt “If it weren’t for Fluttershy, our families would still be fighting.”
‘she may not be like everypony else,” said Gilda “But the way she handled the dangers are among the bravest things I’ve ever seen, and she has my respect.”
Discord was up next, and boy did he look peeved. “Normally I wouldn’t instill order or anything.” said Discord, until his eyes were all demonic, as was his voice whilst he said “But if you don’t want to face the full wrath of Discord, you will leave my friend Fluttershy alone.”
Now the ponies were quivering in fear.
“Ah just can’t believe all of ya’ll” said Golden Delicious as she and the Apple family said their piece. “We Apples are among the most respected, and what we heard from Granny, this is mighty shameful right there.”
“Ah don’t know why ya’ll could think you could just go in and act like ya’ll are family.” said Cherry Jubilee “Just because someone says that, it doesn’t mean that you can get away with it, ah mean she’s right, they don’t even know you.”
“We’re all mighty proud of Applejack for what she done for the family,” said Braeburn “But if there are folks who treat one of our own like this and just take what don’t belong to them, the Apples will make their own stand.”
“That goes for me and my tribe too.” said Little Strongheart.
Shining Armour took a step forward as he said “How could you think Twilight was better without wings? Do you have any idea how many lives she’s changed because of her status. If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t be standing here today.”
‘she’s also my sister, and I will defend her even if she is a princess.” said Cadance as her horn charged up whilst Flurry Heart growled like a big scary bear as her horn charged up with energy.
“We owe everything to Twilight and her friends for what they did for us.” said Trixie.
“Right,” said Sunset “If it weren’t for her, we would’ve still been labeled as criminals to other ponies.”
And now it was Celestia’s turn, and she took a more direct approach. ‘twilight’s husband Beau is right, I sent her here to Ponyville to make friends because she always kept to herself, and I wanted to help her become everything she was meant to be. Every challenge and obstacle she faced, I grew prouder of her every day. And in time, I made her a Princess so that she could continue to spread the magic of friendship throughout Equestria. As Beau also stated, they wrote those journals so that all of you can learn more about friendship, but all of you took it the wrong way.”
Celestia gripped her fists, as she was now angry. “And here’s what you’re going to do. You’re going to drop what you have in your thoughts, burn away that poor excuse of a merchandise, and you’re gonna read every page of that journal, and you’re gonna benefit from that. So either learn everything on that book and give them the respect they deserve…”
And with one great scream, as she instantly turned into her Daybreaker form with a fiery inferno behind her, she shouted “Or else!!!!!”
Everypony got scared by what they saw, until one of them shouted “Okay, okay, we get it, we won’t disrespect them again, and we’ll read the journals, we promise!!”
Celestia’s temper died down and returned to normal whilst still regaining her cold stare. “Good.”
The ponies were silent for a moment, until Luna yelled “Well?!! What are you waiting for?!!!”
Just before the ponies were going to run away, Silver shouted “Hold it!!”
As the so called admirers stopped, Silver walked up to the woozy Diamond Cutter and Lemon Chiffon. He stood between the two of them as he said “Because of the fact that you rode the “Insult our wives” train.”
Silver gripped his fists tightly, he then said “Choo-choo, assholes!!”
He grabbed the two of them in an instant. Everyone watched as the two ponies grunted, with the sound of clothes being torn of, and suddenly in one massive thud, everyone began to scream and panic at the same time as they couldn’t believe their eyes. Half the so called admirers and half the ponies who supported the Mane 6 were just as shocked when they saw what happened. Diamond Cutter was somehow screaming in pain as what he felt was really excruciating. Even half the Mane 6’s families were shocked, as were Beau and the others, even Celestia and Luna couldn’t believe their eyes, whilst Fluttershy and Zephyr Breeze fainted from what she was seeing and the adults were doing their best to cover the fillies and colts” eyes. For what really happened, Silver stripped Diamond Cutter of his clothing and was screaming, because Silver shoved Lemon Chiffon’s head into his ass.
Silver groaned as he wiped his head backwards, whilst he said “I need a drink.”
Celestia’s human husband, Platinum, placed his hand on his shoulder as he said “I think we can arrange that.”
As the royalty escorted the Mane 6 and their husbands back to Canterlot, everypony were still freaked out over what happened as Diamond Cutter still continued screaming in pain.
What any husband would do
Author's Note
Through this chapter, everyone will give a quick recap on through half the show through seasons 1 to 6, as well as bits of season 7, and you'll find it quite interesting on how some reacted to them. Also, Silver gives every sibling a life lesson that they'll remember.
Rewriting
At Canterlot Castle that night, after the ones who helped them decided to stay over at the castle for the night, the Mane 6 groaned from exhaustion, for it was truly painful over what they went through, with the husbands also taking some heavy ciders provided by Braeburn and his Apple family, as well as the Apples who were making the food, with some help from Coriander and Saffron Masala.
“Whoa that hits the spot.” said Silver, now that he has finally calmed down after chugging down his Cider.
‘silver,” said Rarity as she placed her hand on top of her husband’s “Why would you do such a thing out there, not that I mind, but…”
“Rarity.” said Silver, then slowly turned to her, staring into her eyes “Ever since I was little, the day when I lost my parents, I never felt so all alone. With no one to comfort me, no one to hold me, no one to embrace me. No one…to say “I love you” to.”
‘Silver…” said Rarity as she was worried when he brought up that part of his past.
Silver then held onto both her hands as he said “But you took me in when nopony else would, you accepted me for who I was. You cared about me when no one else would. You even gave me a home to come back to. The wonderful mare…that I fell in love with.”
Rarity couldn’t help but tear up as she placed the tip of her fingers from her right mouth.
“That’s why, on our wedding day,” said Silver as he continued “I made a vow that I would comfort and protect you from anyone who would want to hurt you. I made that promise, and I don’t intent to stop now.”
“Oh, Silver.” said Rarity as she hugged her husband tight.
Both Sassy and Coco came over and spoke with Rarity after the two of them stopped hugging, whilst Sweetie Belle decided to rock her baby niece to sleep.
‘truth be told Rarity,” said Sassy Saddles “When you first introduced us to him, we were a little skeptical, but after getting to know him, we ended up actually liking him.”
‘so when he wrote to us that we would come over as quick as we could when ponies were boycotting you, it was the least we could do.” said Coco.
“I really appreciate all of you coming.” said Rarity “It’s really comforting to have you all here.”
“Oh think nothing of it Rarity,” said Fancy Pants “After spending time with you, myself and my friends within the Nobility court have come to admire you. Besides, if you thought your husband was crazy, you should’ve seen what he did to Blueblood.”
Rarity was surprised as she looked at Silver. “What did you do?”
“I sort of snuck some hair remover instead of his usual shampoo.” said Silver with a smirk on his face.
Sweetie Belle laughed, even her baby niece Crystal Gem. “That’s right, he was so embarrassed he couldn’t leave the castle for months.”
“Although old boy,” said Hoity Toity “Why on earth would you shove that pony’s head into another pony’s uh, flank?”
“Let’s just say my protective instincts kicked in.” said Silver “When someone insults my wife, my rage tends to grow as big as a hot air balloon, and make me do that.”
“That’s going to haunt me in my nightmares for a while,” said Plaid Stripes “But it was all worth it.”
Tree Hugger went over to Genus as she said “Your chakra was a bit out of balance, but your heart was truly in the right place because you loved Fluttershy.”
“Oh, I quite agree,” said Discord as he smiled and placed his detached hand over Genus” shoulder “Anyone who would protect my dear friend Fluttershy like that, is my best friend for life.”
“Plus it’s rare to see someone who unleashes their temper as wild as Fluttershy’s.” said Dr. Fauna.
“I just,” said Genus, then he blushed as he looked at Fluttershy “I would do anything to protect her. Truth be told when I first met her, I thought she was an angel who descended from heaven and save my mortal soul from suffering.”
Some were surprised to hear him say that, especially Fluttershy. Genus blushed as he chuckled before he said “I sound like a cheesy poet, don’t I?”
“I…I don’t mind.” said Fluttershy as she held onto her husband’s hand, which Genus accepted as the two of them smiled.
Frosty suddenly felt a punch on his right shoulder, which showed to be Limestone, still in her grumpy self. It didn’t hurt, but it still stinged a bit.
“Normally I don’t like it when someone gets close to my sister.” said Limestone. Then she unexpectedly smiled as she said “But if somepony can defend her like that, then you’re okay in my book.”
‘mm-hmm.” said Marble Pie in her shy tone, but still smiled as she hugged Frosty.
“Although,” said Pinkie Pie as she was curious about something. “How did you know Sunny?”
Frosty didn’t know how to answer her, until Cloudy Quartz cleared her throat, gaining her attention. “Forgive daughter,” said Cloudy “But the sad tale of thou friend was of our doing.”
Pinkie was surprised to hear that, with her father, Igneous Rock speaking next. “When thou lover Frosty last visited, he asked us for our blessing when he wanted to ask your hand in marriage, and we told her of thou departed friend so that he could understand why thou spreads special festivities to other places in Ponyville.”
“Yeah,” said Frosty “The things you do; it’s quite a noble and honorable thing to do. And you know what? Sunny would be very proud of you for what you’ve accomplished.”
Pinkie couldn’t help but tear up and hugged her husband tightly, which one could’ve sworn she was busy breaking his back. She then looked at him and said ‘thank you so much.”
Rutherford them came over and placed his hand over Pinkie’s shoulder. “When husband friend of pony friend sent letter for help because pink pony needed help, Yaks happy to oblige and help friend in need.”
“Oh of course,” said Mr. Cake “After everything she did for us, how could we not defend her.”
“You must really love Pinkie Pie so much if you were willing to defend her like that.” said Mrs. Cake as she looked at Frosty.
“As Pinkie’s mission is to spread laughter and happiness all over Equestria,” said Frosty with a smile “I have just as an important mission in my life; being a good husband to my wife and a good father to our children someday.”
“Yep, yep, yep.” said Pinkie in her chirpy self-whilst she slowly placed her hand on her tummy, as did Frosty, with her saying ‘someday.”, knowing that she can’t wait until both her kids are born.
Spitfire and Soarin then stood beside Bolt, with Spitfire patted on his back hard, which made him wince, but he quickly shrugged it off. “I gotta admit, I was actually impressed,” said Spitfire “You defending Dash like that is quite impressive.”
“I’ll say,” said Quibble Pants “I’ve seen her overcome Caballeron’s goons, but I’ve never seen anyone defend her like that.”
“I’m kinda jealous,” said Daring Do “Wished I had a husband like that.”
“We knew our daughter made the right choice marrying someone worthy of her affection.” said Windy Whistles as she and her husband could barely contain their excitement.
“What can I say,” said Bolt “As Rainbow Dash is loyal to her friends, I’m loyal to her, even if she doesn’t want to admit that she’s cute.”
“Hey,” said Rainbow Dash as she blushed “I ain’t c-cute.”
“No,” said Bolt as he had a mischievous smile “But you are when I do this.”
Bolt kissed her neck a couple of times, causing her to blush and flutter her wings a bit. “B-Bolt, stop.” she responded, but she didn’t want him to stop as she held onto him.
“Aw, that really is adorable.” said Derpy when she saw how Dash was feeling.
Granny Smith and the rest of her relatives came together near Bucky. “And Sugarcube,” said Granny Smith, gaining Bucky’s attention “Ah just wanted to thank ya for what ya’ll did for us.”
‘darn tootin,” said Goldie Delicious “Calling up the guards and defending the Apple Family like that, yer a credit to the Apple Family.”
“My wife’s my top priority,” said Bucky “Even if I’m not a pony.”
“Oh think nothing of it partner,” said Braeburn “Even if yer not a pony, we’re honored to have you as part of the family.”
“They sure are lucky,” said Burnt Oak “Ah know that Bright Macintosh and Pear Butter would be mighty proud of you for defending the Apple Family, and ah know they’d be proud of Applejack for having a husband to stand by her side.”
Applejack couldn’t help but blush, thinking about what they would’ve said if they were there with them. “But one thing ah’m happy about the most,” said Applejack “Is that we have a little one of our own.”
‘speaking of which,” said Apple Sauce “Ah think this little one wants his mother’s company.”
And there he was, little Apple Sauce, allowing Applejack to embrace her little one. Bucky couldn’t help but smile to as he said “I could just picture him saying “Ah’m Apple Slice, more apple fritter?””
Applejack looked at him with puffed cheeks, but couldn’t help but chuckle when Bucky made a joke like that.
Twilight’s parents came over and gained Beau’s attention. “We just wanted to thank you for defending our daughter.” said Night Light.
“We were a little skeptical at first,” said Twilight Velvet “But seeing you defend our daughter like that, we just couldn’t help but be impressed.”
‘she was the first friend I ever made,” said Beau, until he blushed as he said “Then she ended up being my first crush and my first love.”
“Who?” said Owlowiscious, gaining Beau’s attention, suddenly the two of them started talking.
‘twilight Sparkle, my wife.”
“Who?”
“The mare I married.”
“Who?”
‘twilight Sparkle.”
“Who?”
“My wife, as in your owner.”
“Who?”
“My…” said Beau, until he suddenly snapped out of it as he said “Wait, why the heck am I arguing with an owl?”
There was laughter among a few when they saw that, which left Beau embarrassed. He suddenly felt Shining Armour tap on his shoulder, gaining his attention.
“Hey I uh,” said Shining Armour “Just wanted to say thanks for defending my sister.”
“You kidding, I’d do anything to protect her.” said Beau, then said “Although, I remembered when Twilight told you about me, you wanted to punch me in the face.”
Shining Armour winced at that, whilst he nervously chuckled. “Oh yeah, especially since you two had your special night.”
“That was until I was able to tell him off,” said Twilight as she looked at Shining Armour “And said that if he would do that, then I would turn him into a mare again, and this time permanently.”
They were surprised by what Twilight said. “Wait, he turned into a mare before?” said Ember when she overheard.
“Yes, because of Poison Joke.” said Cadance, as she suddenly began to chuckle, thinking about her husband’s awkward situation. “When it comes into contact with anypony, they tend to get played a joke upon. He accidentally fell into some when he wanted to meet Zecora.”
“And in case you wondered what he looked like a mare,” said Beau with a sneaky smile, and pulled out a ton of photos “I got the pictures to prove it.”
“What?!” shouted Shining Armour, causing Twilight to light them up and showed it to them when she enhanced the picture.
The moment they saw him, all of them had stunned looks on their faces, causing everyone in the room to laugh, with Shining Armour completely embarrassed about it.
“Oh that is wrong on so many levels.” said Minuette whilst she wiped the tears from her eyes.
After the laughter died down, Moon Dancer spoke to Beau. “We were quite impressed how you defended her. I read the journal and I never realized how much all of you went through. That’s why I wanted to arrange a visit, so that I could see you more often.”
‘too bad the golden oak library’s been destroyed,” said Spike “Otherwise you would’ve had the chance to move there and visit Twilight more often.”
Sunset sat close to Beau as she said ‘makes me wish I lived at Ponyville too.”
“Well you are here now,” said Beau “And the teatimes we had were quite fun.”
“Wait, you two hang out?” said Twilight.
“Of course,” said Sunset “I was surprised that a human was in Equestria. So by the time I moved here, I was able to spent some time with him, even with most of your friends” husbands, even Emily. I was so glad that I didn’t feel like an outsider among them.”
“Oh yeah,” said Emily ‘twilight mentioned that there was a portal to the human world, but it was completely different than the ones she went to.”
“Not to mention I get to find out that there happens to be a world that’s paralleled to Equestria,” said Beau “I’ve been doing a lot of research and notes when I compared this world to another, even how to see how your other selves were like. Same personalities, different traits, the works.”
“Figures you’d go all egghead mode.” said Bolt as he rolled his eyes and chuckled.
Both Twilight and Rainbow gave their own bemused looks, for they were partially surprised the way they saw their husbands were acting like them.
Minuette placed her hand on Beau’s shoulder, gaining his attention as she said “We really appreciate you defending her.”
“I just did what any husband would do.” said Beau.
Lemon Shine then held onto Twilight’s shoulder as she said “You are so lucky that you found someone like Beau.”
Night Light gained Beau’s attention as he said “We were a little skeptical at first when our daughter first met you, Beau.”
Twilight Velvet stood next to her husband whilst she rocked little Moonlight Sparkle in her arms “But after seeing what you did and made our daughter happy, even seeing little Moonlight Sparkle. We couldn’t be any prouder.”
‘thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Sparkle,” said Beau, then he placed his hand on the journal as he looked at it “Although, I wished we could’ve done more before things got out of hand.”
Velvet handed Moonlight over to Beau whilst she picked up the book. “And dear, I know you wanted others to know of the struggles you went through, but why didn’t you consult me about this? You know how much your father and I wrote our books.”
“I guess I was so caught up about wanting others to learn about friendship,” said Twilight as she lowered her eyes and drooped her ears “I didn’t realize how bad things would be.”
“You were thinking as a teacher and a friend,” said Emily, gaining Twilight’s attention “You didn’t think as a writer or a publisher.”
‘she’s not wrong,” said Silver as he spoke to Twilight “Back when I was younger before my parents” demise, we spent some time with some writers in the past. They think carefully about what they write, and they also write something they thought before the rest of the book.”
“Oh?” said Twilight Velvet when she was now interested what Silver said when he mentioned about spending some time with writers. “Like what?”
Silver then mentioned what Bucky said earlier “Something like, “This book is based on actual events. All characters that were written in this book are actual and real live ponies that have been interviewed and desired to share their experiences to those who would want a friend”, the simple stuff really.”
“And let me get this straight,” said Princess Ember as she realized something “Because of the fact they didn’t wrote that down, the ponies thought that they were made up characters and not actual ones? Man some of the ponies who read this really aren’t that bright.”
Twilight groaned as she placed her hands on her head, with Beau quickly comforting her, with Platinum gaining their attention as he said ‘don’t worry, we had to call on the guard to recall every one of those books before things got out of hand.”
“Indeed,” said Celestia ‘though I have read through this myself as well.”
Twilight and her friends looked at Celestia surprised. ‘really?”
“Indeed,” said the smiling Celestia “The parts where all of you wrote is quite impressive, though you only wrote about what happened between you becoming a Princess and when you defeated Tirek. You forgot something.”
“Like what Princess?” asked Twilight.
“Why the very beginning of course,” said Luna as she leaned forward after she sat down “From the day that all of you first met to the day after Starlight and her companions defeated Chrysalis and saved the Changeling Hive from enslavement.”
“Hey good call,” said Nebula when he agreed “Write about all of your experiences, the lives you have changed and to all the trials and hardships all of you had went through.”
“Hey, maybe we can help.” said Thorax “I mean all of us were there, and it would be a good idea to add parts where we came in and everything.”
“Although,” said Soarin “It’s gonna be six volumes worth of journals.”
“Well both my in laws happen to be the best writers in Canterlot.” said Beau as he looked at them.
“Oh, you’re such a card Beau.” said Twilight Velvet as she felt flattered by Beau’s compliment.
“Yeah, but I don’t usually play with a full deck.” said Beau.
“Hey, that’s my line.” said Platinum, gaining everyone’s attention as they looked at him with flexed eyebrows. Platinum felt embarrassed that he blabbed it out loud like that, even Celestia giggled, for she remembered that line very well.
‘so,” said Night Light as they teleported tons of typewriters in the room, with a handful sitting in front of them ‘shall we get started?”
And from each group, they began to write down their experiences and achievements of what they’ve accomplished.
From the first Typewriter, Twilight Velvet typed what happened when Twilight’s journey had begun, and where they added to what they told them. Twilight told them of Nightmare Moon’s return, then saved her from her darkness, trying to decide who would go to the Grand Galloping Gala, but gave up on it when she didn’t want to hurt her friends any further, where Applejack refused but eventually asked for help in harvesting the apples, of how Gilda nearly drove Rainbow’s friends away, but one should try to be a friend, where they tried to teach humility to Trixie, but she refused, how Fluttershy stood up to a dragon, Twilight’s first sleep over (Much to Applejack and Rarity’s embarrassment, but also loud chuckles from Bucky and Silver), of how they met Zecora, the Parasprite incident, Twilight’s purpose in the Winter Wrap Up, about the CMC’s first meeting, Rainbow and Applejack’s constant Iron Pony contest, trying to make things right with Rarity when they were obsessed in what their dresses would look like, Twilight trying to accept Pinkie Pie’s twitching predictions, Rainbow Dash performing her Sonic Rainboom when she saved Rarity and the Wonderbolts from going splat on the ground, when Fluttershy nearly bit off more than she could chew when she tried to look after the CMC…
They then saw Bolt laughing, as he said to Twilight “Wait, so you ended up getting turned into stone by a possessed chicken? Guess your plan to face them went, “Rock solid”!!” said Bolt as he landed on his back on the floor, much to her annoyance, even Rainbow couldn’t help but chuckle a bit.
Anyway…when the CMC entered a contest but failed to know what they should do to earn their Cutie Marks, when they encountered the Diamond Dogs, when Rarity was getting jealous over Fluttershy’s rise to fame, when there was a misunderstanding with the Buffalo tribes. When Fluttershy tried to look after Philomena, which really amused Platinum, even Celestia couldn’t help but giggle when she tried to look after her pet phoenix, when the Mane 6 explained of how they got their Cutie Marks, which amazed the husbands that they had achieved so much since then. When Spike got jealous when Owlowiscious was helping Twilight instead of him, with Beau reminding him that no one can replace anyone, much to Spike’s embarrassment. When they tried to plan a surprise party for Pinkie Pie, but she was just too tenacious, much to her embarrassment as Frosty smirked and lightly elbowed her shoulder, and when they went to the Gala, which nearly ended in disaster.
From the second Typewriter, Night Light typed what happened when Discord was released. With Discord’s and the others” help, Night Light wrote about how the Mane 6 faced Discord and won. When Twilight panicked over an overdue friendship report over nothing, with Beau saying that she should’ve asked what she meant, much to Twilight’s embarrassment. When Luna tried to adapt to today’s society during Nightmare Night, with Nebula nuzzling against her cheek, which she blushed with a smile. When Rarity didn’t want to spend some time with her sister at the Sisterhood Social…
“Wait, you didn’t want to spend time with your sister during the Sisterhood social because you thought it was uncouth?” asked Silver as he looked at Rarity surprised. “Wow. That’s cold.”
Rarity blushed whilst she was embarrassed about that ordeal, with her saying “Not my proudest moment that day.”, with Sweetie Belle hugging her sister.
When Apple Bloom got the Cutie Pox, with Bucky snickering and Apple Bloom nudging him in the arm. When Rainbow Dash wanted a pet, but was encouraged by her friends to give Tank a chance. When the others wanted to teach Dash a lesson when she became obsessed with glory and fame. When Rarity was afraid of being judged by the Canterlot Society, but she learned her lesson well that day. When Spike experienced greed growth, much to his embarrassment, but ended up blushing when he saw Emily looking at her, imagining just how “Big” he really was. When they did a Hearth’s Warming Eve play, on how Equestria’s history began, with the guys admitting that they wished that they would see that, with Twilight saying someday. When Apple Bloom didn’t realize that Granny was the reason that Ponyville was founded, with Bucky saying that he really loved her story, and wish to know more, with her smiling and said she’s be honored to tell him more. When Pinkie Pie had to take care of the Cake Twins, with Frosty imagining how it would be like if the two of them would raise their children.
When Applejack had to learn that she didn’t need to hide her shame when she didn’t win the rodeo, and learned that you can’t run away from your problems, and that you can always rely on your family. Then their encounter with the Flim Flam Brothers, when Rainbow didn’t want to read any Daring Do books until she got drawn into it, with Bolt smirking, which earned him a slap on the shoulder, but ended up pinching her, making her yelp out loud as her wings extended, but ended up getting embarrassed when she heard her parents say they’re just like them when they were younger. When the CMC messed up with a love potion for Hearth’s Warming Eve, which nearly made Bucky laugh out loud, but were able to contain it thanks to Big Mac. When Pinkie Pie tried to help Cranky Doodle smile as he was reunited with Matilda, the love of his life. When Fluttershy learned not to be that assertive because of Iron Will.

When Fluttershy learned to be brave and helped her fellow Pegasi direct water to Cloudsdale. When the CMC learned the hard way about the whole gossip column, with Bucky comforting Apple Bloom, and she ended up hugging him tightly, as did Sweetie Belle with Silver, and Scootaloo with Bolt. When they tried to solve the mystery of who ate the Cake’s cake. And finally, the whole Changeling debacle, with Beau giving Shining Armour a dirty look, which nearly frightened him, for Beau had every right to be mad at him over it.
From the third Typewriter, Beau decided to type things out by helping them out. The time they helped save the Crystal Empire from Sombra’s evil soul. When Applejack had to learn on how to have fun at the family reunion instead of being stubborn about it, as well as not overworking herself, with Bucky saying it happens, understanding how hard Applejack works. When Babs came over and became a bully to hide her pain when she kept being bullied about her not having a Cutie Mark. When Rainbow Dash became the cadet at the Academy, but had to face Lightning Dust when she nearly got her friends killed, which got the husbands steamed.

When the CMC and their sisters went to a camping trip and Scootaloo became an honorary sister to Rainbow Dash. When Spike had to honor a dept to Applejack. When Fluttershy was the only one who were able to reform Discord, which he was very appreciative over. When Twilight and the others revealed in getting things ready for the Equestria Games, and where Spike sheepishly revealed what actually happened, which caused the Mane 6 to be steamed about it, but were thankfully calmed down by their husbands. The day that Twilight accidentally swapped her friends” Cutie Marks, and became a Princess after she fixed the problem. And when Sunset helped fill in about Twilight’s adventure in the human world, which caused Beau to snicker about it, but earned a glare from Twilight, but she laughed a bit again, for it was really embarrassing when she had to learn on how to adapt to that world.
From the fourth Typewriter, Daring Do helped out by writing things out too. When Celestia and Luna went missing and Twilight had to solve the mystery of the Plunder Vines. The Mane six then placed the elements back to the tree of Harmony, which revealed Discord planted them centuries ago and only came out just now, which caused Platinum and Nebula to give him a dirty look, but quickly shrugged it off. When the Mane 6 went to the Castle of the Two Sisters, and four out of them ended up scaring each other, which caused Bucky and Bolt to chuckle loudly. Where they met Daring Do and were able to help her out, with her accepting them as her friends. When Diamond Tiara discouraged Scootaloo when they had the honor of carrying the Ponyville flag for the Equestria Games. Bolt looked at Diamond Tiara angrily, which she nearly yelped out of fright. When Spike and the Mane 6 were sucked into a comic book…
Emily suddenly shrieked out loud in excitement, surprising everyone in the room as she shouted “They have comic books about superheroes here?!!”
They looked at her stunned, then to Frosty as he said ‘she’s a huge comic book fan about superheroes.”
Spike nearly got excited, for there was something he and Emily had in common.
When Fluttershy got turned into a bat Pony, which surprised Genus. When Rarity and her friends went to Manehattan and were nearly duped by Suri, which allowed Silver to understand what happened, even of how they met Coco Pommel. When Pinkie traveled with the Apple Family when they wanted to ask Golden Delicious if they were related. When Rainbow hat do choose to perform between the Wonderbolts and Ponyville, which Soarin pouted and Bolt was impressed that she learned a valuable lesson that day. When Twilight wanted to spend some time with Cadance, but couldn’t because of Discord, earning a dirty look from Beau as he stared at the Lord of Chaos, and where Pinkie Pie competed to throw the biggest party when Cheese Sandwich arrived, but then worked together when they discovered Pinkie was the one who inspired him.
“Wow, two party ponies in one town?” said Frosty “Wish I could’ve seen that.”
“Oh we wish we could,” said Cheese Sandwich “But we’d need to have a reason to throw the biggest party in Equestria.”
‘maybe you could.” said Beau, gaining their attention “It’ll be a week from now but…uh…”
Twilight held onto his shoulder as he said “What he’s trying to say is that his birthday’s next week and he doesn’t know how to celebrate it.”
Pinkie gasped loudly, even Cheese. The two of them grabbed Beau as they said together “Then you’ve come to the right ponies!!”
Continuing where they left off. Where Rarity tried to change her look to impress Trend, much to Silver’s amusement which Rarity bumped her elbow against him. When Fluttershy was too scared to perform on stage and could only perform in front of her and Pinkie partially making it worse.
‘sheesh,” said Limestone “No offense Pinkie, but didn’t you ever think to learn a thing or two about restraint?”
‘mm-Hmm.” said Marble as she agreed with her, much to Pinkie’s embarrassment.
When the CMC went overboard getting attention whilst they tried to learn a few magic lessons from Twilight. When Fluttershy had to teach Seabreeze a thing or two about trying to be nice to her fellow Breezies when she tried to take them back home. When Applejack kept babying Apple Bloom and not trusting her enough to look after herself, which caused Bucky to chuckle a bit, which earned a frustrated groan from her. When Pinkie tried to secretly force her friends to become friends with her sister.
“Pinkie,” said Emily “You know very well you can’t force friendship on others. If you want them to be friends, they need to learn to do that on their own.”
“She has a point, Pinkie.” said Maud “I would’ve thought that you’d learnt your lesson, but you kept on repeating it when I tried to be friends with Starlight.”
Pinkie giggled nervously as she said ‘sorry.”
When Sweetie Belle got jealous of her sister and nearly tried to sabotage her, but thanks to Luna, she learnt her lesson, which caused Nebula to hug Luna as a way of praising her, with Rarity hugging Sweetie Belle as she realized that she wasn’t fair to her sister.
“There’s also another reason,” said Silver, gaining Rarity’s attention “You remember Sweetie Belle’s fifth birthday party?”
“Oh of course I do.” said Rarity.
“And you remembered when she got angry at you for stealing her spotlight.”
Rarity was surprised as she remembered that day, with Sweetie Belle realizing that he knows, with him explaining.
“Luna told me.” said Silver, giving a full explanation. “When she came by to the boutique at Canterlot whilst I was helping Sassy Saddles, she explained to me of how she helps ponies when she enters their dreams. She even told me about you.”
He looked at Luna and said “Luna, if you please?”
Luna nodded, then flashed her horn, showing a scene of Sweetie Belle’s birthday. The ponies were tired to waiting for her, so she tried to salvage it.
“Okay, I see,” said Rarity, then looked at Silver “Where are you going with this?”
Silver pointed at the top of the stairs, then it showed five year old Sweetie Belle, dressed in a dress, with some giggling, but Silver gave them a stink eye, which was surprising, so he explained.
‘she wanted to dress herself up and be beautiful like her big sister, so that she could make a big entrance for her party. But as she came down, she saw the party was going on without her. She tried everything to get them to notice her. That was until…”
Then one by one.
“These party favors are the coolest.” said the first filly.
“Awesome! Where did you get these?” said the second filly.
“Oh, I made them myself. And of course, you’ll all want cake, won’t you?” said Rarity as she showed the cake to them as they cheered.
“You’re the greatest Rarity!” said the fourth filly.
“Who needs a birthday girl when you’ve got the birthday girl’s big sister?” said the first filly.
Overhearing it, five year old Sweetie Belle ran up the stairs in tears, then ended up crying in her room alone, much to everyone’s shock, even Rarity, for she didn’t realize her sister was there. After Luna brought them back to the room, Silver continued to speak.
‘don’t you see when she mentioned it when your costumes were outshining her play?” said Silver, as he looked at Rarity, with Rarity looking at him “You and the fillies ended up hurting her feelings, because she thought you ruined her birthday.”
Rarity was shocked beyond words and ended up shedding tears, then lowered herself as she placed both her hands against her face, with Silver trying to comfort her.
“Oh come now Sugarcube.” said Applejack as she looked at her, and Sweetie Belle looking at her. “Why would ya’ll think that? You’d know Rarity would never do that to you.”
“Yeah,” said Pinkie Pie as she jumped in “Birthdays are a sacred tradition. It’s not something you take on lightly.”
“And if anything it’s also Sweetie Belle’s and her parents” fault.” said Silver, much to their shock.
“Excuse me?” said Sweetie Belle, feeling slightly offended.
“Well if you hadn’t bottled it up after all these years and talked to her about this, she would’ve understood. And if her so called parents…” said Silver, giving them a dirty look, much to their fright “Had even cared or loved her, or even bothered to stay with her to celebrate her birthday, she wouldn’t be like this.”
Sweetie Belle turned away as she said “What would you know?”
Silver then sighed, for he promised himself he wouldn’t say anything about that subject. He took a deep breath, sighed, then said “Because the same thing happened to me and my sister.”
Everyone looked at Silver surprised, even Rarity and Sweetie Belle. Silver sighed as he said “A long time ago, when I was about six years old…”
Flashback back on Earth when Silver was just a child
“It was my sixth birthday,” said Silver as he told them the story “And like any kid, I wanted to try my best to make a good first impression. I walked down the stairs to meet the other kids, that I wanted to get a chance to make friends.”
He sees his sister providing for the guests. “My sister, who was about sixteen at the time, tried to help out, although I didn’t understand any of it. I tried to get them to notice me, until the things that Sweetie Belle heard, they said the exact same to her.”
He ran away to his room, crying, with his sister noticing as she quickly went to help him. “Naturally my feelings got hurt and I ran upstairs. But my sister noticed and tried to get me down.”
Silver was arguing with his sister, and he ended up throwing a piece of cake at her. “My sister tried to calm me down, but I was so angry at her, I screamed at her, I blamed her for always taking the spotlight and not giving me a chance to try and make my own friends. I got so angry I threw a piece of cake at her face, and said I hate her.”
It was his sister’s turn and cried as she ran away. Until he heard a scream and a thud. He went over to the stairs, and discovered that his sister was at the bottom, with his mother screaming in horror, as did the kids. ‘she ran away with a broken heart. I sat there for a few seconds, till I heard screaming. Then I heard my mother’s. I ran and then I saw her. She was at the bottom of the stairs, not moving, not breathing, not anything.”
The hospital came and picked her up as a blanket was over her, with his mother crying, but he was too young to understand. “The ambulance came and said that she broke her neck, she didn’t survive the fall. I watched as they took her away, and I was still trying to grasp what happened.”
Two weeks after the funeral, he went to his room. ‘two weeks later after her funeral, I discovered something in my room.”
He discovered something, and shocked him beyond recognition. He ended up crying in his room. “I looked and I saw what she had wrote, even the awesome present she had ready for me. I then realized, from that moment, she was trying to save my party because the other kids didn’t want to be friends with me. I ended up crying, all alone, with so much pain that it would ache.”
Back to the present
Silver focused on the present as he said “And I carried that guilt with me ever since.”
Many were shocked by what Silver had revealed, even Rarity and Sweetie Belle. Silver stood up as he said “I was too young and a dumb kid that didn’t understand anything. But as I got older, I learned an important lesson in my life. Comparing to what happened between Rarity and Sweetie Belle, and myself and my sister.”
He then said his piece as he said ‘sometimes the things we do for our family and friends, we have the best intentions. But because of our own ignorance, our message to our loved ones isn’t understood, they’ll take it the wrong way, and would end up either hurting or rebelling what we don’t understand. Whatever our families, our friends and our siblings do, they do because they wanted what’s best for others because they love us, but if that so called best ends up you making the biggest mistake of your life, you’ll end up regretting it with so much guilt, it would ache your heart until you pass.”
He then looked at Sweetie Belle, and then tried to help her understand, whilst also trying to send the same message to every sibling in the same room. “Our siblings may not be like what we are, but they understood what it was like to go through down that path. They only do those things because they’re scared of us getting hurt. We can’t stop you from doing what you’re doing, but they can only help them prepare for it. For sometimes it may seem hopeless, but in reality, they won’t always be around to protect us. For it is unfair, sometimes we don’t want to have the things that others offer us, that’s why they wish to spend as much time as they have with us so that if anything were to happen to them, then they would wish to have happy memories instead of pain.”
He then leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, looking at them as he said “There’s nothing wrong with loving someone despite their upbringing and their differences, but it doesn’t give them an excuse to not pay attention to anything else, especially others that are important to you. Forgetting what’s really important makes you blind and prone to anger. In the end, the things we say that we end up regretting the most are the things we say in our anger. Because they’re often the last things we ever get to say to someone.”
Many were stunned by what he revealed, for there were some merit to it. Most of the siblings in the room ended up looking at one another, and realized that what Silver said, he was right, for the mistakes they make, they’d end up regretting for not setting things right or even apologize to the mistake that they made, even Celestia and Luna felt the same way, for both of them had felt that way since Luna was forced to be banished to the moon for a thousand years.
“Uh…” said Rainbow, as she was now getting uncomfortable, as the feeling also consumed her for a bit. “Can we continue please?”
“Uh, sure.” said Daring, not wanting to think about that too.
When the Flim/Flam brothers tried to scam Granny Smith into selling her farm, much to Bucky’s anger as he instantly crushed a chair into sawdust with his bare hands, which surprised the Apple Family, and much to Applejack’s enjoyment in seeing her husband like that. When the others had to help Rainbow Dash study for a test at the Wonderbolt Academy, which Bolt could barely contain his laughter, much to Rainbow’s anger.
“I’m not laughing about that.” said Bolt as he gave his reason “It’s just that I went through the same thing whenever I had to try and study for a test. Wish I had amazing friends who could help me study like that though.”
Rainbow couldn’t help but chuckle as she hugged her husband, with a hint of a noogie as a result, until they told about the Rainbow Falls trader exchange, where Rainbow Dash tried to trade a Daring Do book with Fluttershy.
“You tried to trade Fluttershy over a stupid book?!!” said Genus loudly, until he earned an angered glare from Daring Do, aka AK Yearling, making him sheepishly smile as he said “No offense AK.”
When Rarity got corrupted with an Inspiration manifestation spell that nearly created chaos in Ponyville when Spike tried to help her. When Spike was ridiculed at the Equestria Games, but saved everypony from being harmed. And finally, when they faced Tirek, but Genus found out that Discord misused Fluttershy’s trust. Causing him to go over, gaining Discord’s attention.
“What are you…?” said Discord, until Genus kicked him below the belt, much to everyone’s shock.
As Discord was on his knees, Genus yelled “If you ever misuse my wife’s trust ever again, I’ll use you as the world’s biggest toothpick!! Do you hear me Discord?!!”
Discord was so frightened, he literally wet himself, which he said “Okay, in retrospect. I may have deserved that.”
“You think?” said everypony and creature in the room loudly.
From the fifth Typewriter, Starlight decided to help out with this. They wrote about how the Mane 6 went to Starlight’s village, and she ended up stealing their Cutie Marks. But after they saved a village, Starlight escaped, vowing revenge.
“Why’d you do that anyway?” asked Frosty.
“I know.” said Beau. ‘starlight and Spike told me about this. Apparently a certain somepony, and he shall remain nameless.”
Beau secretly looked at Sunburst, which left him embarrassed, then continued “Got his Cutie Mark after saving Starlight, causing his parents to send him away to Canterlot. She ended up feeling alone and blamed Cutie Marks as the cause of the problem, fearing that a Cutie Mark could take away any friend she could ever make.”
“Wow,” said Bolt ‘denial much?”, causing Starlight to feel embarrassed about it.
“It’s much deeper than that actually.” said Beau, causing them to look at him ‘she felt like anypony that she might consider a friend would just up and leave her. Like she wasn’t worth valuing as a friend.”
They were surprised that he deduced something like that. “I read a lot about psychology.” said Beau. “After you lot came back from the Crystal Empire, Twilight filled me in, so I was able to figure out what it meant.”
“That’s…pretty much it.” said Starlight, with Sunburst holding his friend.
As they continued with the journal. They then explained of how Twilight was having trouble adjusting living in the castle ever since Tirek destroyed her home, the Golden Oaks Library, which caused Beau to comfort her, with her nuzzling against his face. When Apple Bloom was afraid of what her Cutie Mark might be and change her. When Rainbow Dash freaked out about not wanting Tank to go hibernating, so she ended up nearly destroying the weather factory, which caused Bolt to nearly chuckle.
“You’d better watch it or I’ll lock your head between my legs.” said Rainbow Dash as she puffed up her cheeks.
“Then you’d better hope your love tunnel can resist my mouth.” whispered Bolt, causing Rainbow to blush bright red as she felt flustered.
When the CMC tried to help Trouble Shoes fitting in when everypony thought he was a criminal back at Appaloosa. When Discord got jealous when he was still new to the whole friendship thing ever since Fluttershy invited Tree Hugger to the Grand Galloping Gala. When Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie traveled to Griffonstone, where Rainbow and Gilda made peace and were friends again. Then whilst they faced the Bugbear, everypony decided to fill in on their crazy adventure on Cranky Doodle and Matilda’s wedding. When Spike tried to fill in for Twilight whilst she was sleeping, but it went straight to his head and went overboard with it.
‘spike,” said Emily, gaining his attention “It’s admirable that you wanted to help Twilight, but you don’t need to do all that just to gain respect.”
Spike blushed whilst he felt embarrassed about the whole ordeal. “And Twilight,” said Emily, gaining her attention “I know you like to study and all, but you should really learn to get enough sleep when you do that.”
Now Twilight blushed whilst she felt embarrassed about the whole ordeal.
When the Yaks came over so that Twilight could help form a peaceful negotiations and tried to make a friend, whilst the Yaks were surprised that Pinkie traveled all the way from Ponyville to Yakyakistan just so that she could ask them of how their traditions worked so that she could organize a party for them. When Twilight and the others tried to help Princess Luna overcome her demons whilst she blamed herself over Nightmare Moon, with Nebula trying to comfort her in the process. When Rarity first opened her boutique at Canterlot, but had to help out Sassy Saddle on focusing on other designs instead of just one. When Rainbow was framed for something, she didn’t do by the Wonderbolts and Rarity helped clear her name.
When Applejack and Rarity helped Coco Pommel put on the midsummer theatre revival. When Big Mac wanted to be a hero for Apple Bloom like Applejack did, with the siblings comforting him, revealing that he didn’t need to prove anything to her. When the CMC helped Pipsqueak and Diamond Tiara with their problems and finally gained their Cutie Marks. Where Pinkie Pie knew Shining Armour and Princess Cadance were having a baby…
“WHAT?!!” shouted Twilight, then looked at Pinkie. “Pinkie Pie!! You knew the entire time and didn’t tell me?!!”
Pinkie then tried to defend herself as she said “I wanted to, but Rarity made me not tell you, otherwise it would’ve ruined the surprise. And when Shining Armour and Princess Cadance came along, he made me promise I wouldn’t tell until he told you.”
Rarity was surprised as she said ‘darling, if I had known that, I would’ve stayed quiet about this too.”
As they were typing…
When the Apples and Pie families tried to find a way to make their holidays work with one another. And in the end, learned to accept their differences and of how cool they were to one another. When Fluttershy didn’t want to be part of Nightmare Night, but was forced to by her friends, and they later accepted her decision.
“But now that Warm Breeze is born,” said Fluttershy “I know he would love to go there. So I’ve decided to take him when he’s old enough, for his sake.”
Genus smiled and kissed Fluttershy by the forehead, as he was proud of her own bravery. When Twilight thought Discord brainwashed her friends when they understood their jokes, but in the end, he helped her learn that even she can feel jealous instead of pretending she wasn’t. When Twilight and Fluttershy were sent to calm down the Hooffield and the McColt families from fighting, thanks to the animals. When Applejack tried to help Rara see what Svengallop was doing to her without her even realizing it. And finally, when Starlight nearly destroyed all of Equestria, but thanks to Twilight, she was able to calm down and were able to make things right, with her accepting them as her friends.
And finally, from the sixth Typewriter, with Celestia deciding to take the reigns as she decided to help out whilst the husbands remembered as they witnessed some of their adventures.
When they went to meet Flurry Heart and Starlight tried to reconnect with Sunburst. When Rarity was busy looking for a location to open her next boutique in Manehattan whilst she spent some time with Pinkie Pie and Maud Pie as they would go see the sights and swap each other’s gifts, and in the end, Maud helped pick Rarity her location whilst the Pie sisters decided to invite her to their tradition. When the CMC tried to figure out what to do ever since they got their Cutie Marks, but then helped Tender Taps achieve his destiny and realize what they needed to do. When Spike competed in the Gauntlet of Fire and won, but gave the title to Ember, knowing she would do twice as good as he would. And when Starlight tried to make friends, but Twilight didn’t approve when the friend was going to be Trixie.
“Ah yes, I remembered.” said Beau, then looked at Twilight “Although to be fair you were pregnant and had trust issues when it came to that.”
“Ugh, don’t remind me.” said Twilight “I didn’t know until after Trixie’s show was over.”
When Rainbow finally got accepted into the Wonderbolts, but felt discouraged when they kept using her nickname that she hated, but then realized the Wonderbolt members also have embarrassing nicknames because of their incidents on their first day. When Starlight didn’t want to spend Hearth’s Warming Eve with everypony, but Twilight and Spike convinced her as they read her a story.
“Oh yeah, I remember that.” said Beau “Aw, and it was also Moonlight’s first Hearth’s Warming Eve too.”
He showed all of them her picture, playing with her toys whilst wearing funny clothing and were decorated with cookie dough when she wanted to have cookies.
“Awww.” said everypony when they saw her how cute and adorable, she was.
“Aw, I missed that?” said Twilight as she felt disappointed that she missed out.
‘don’t worry,” said Beau “You didn’t miss out anything.”
When the CMC had to help out a Griffon named Gabby, who also wanted to have a purpose by having a Cutie Mark like them. When the Mane 6 helped Rarity out when they tried to set up her boutique at Manehattan.
“Oh yeah, I read the review.” said Silver “That was quite interesting.”
When Rarity tried to convince Applejack to take a day off, as well as they were surprised to find Rainbow Dash there too.
“Wait, you go to the Spa too?” said Bolt.
“It’s complicated…” said Rainbow, until…
“And you didn’t invite me?” said Bolt.
Everyone looked at him surprised, with Bolt saying “What, I like to go to Spas too. And I’m not ashamed of it.”
When Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash tried to find a way to help Fluttershy’s annoying brother Zephyr Breeze, and he kept hitting on her, even when she was already dating Bolt, which caused him to clench his fist as he looked at him, much to Zephyr Breeze’s fright. When Pinkie Pie and Rarity helped Saffron Masala and her father Coriander save their business. When Quibble Pants and Rainbow Dash went on an adventure with Daring Do. When the CMC wanted to build their carts and not have their sisters involved. When everypony tried to get back at Rainbow Dash for her constant pranking, even scared Bolt, even when he wasn’t part of it.
“Eh, sorry about that.” said Mrs. Cake to Bolt.
“Eh, water under the bridge.” said Bolt.
When Spike first met Thorax and tried to defend him when nopony else wanted to believe him. When Fluttershy tried to convince Discord to spend some time with Spike and Big Mac on Ogres and Obliets.
“Oh yeah,” said Emily “I love that game.”
When Applejack and Rainbow Dash pressured Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy into playing Buck ball at Appaloosa. When Applejack and Fluttershy tried to bring down the owner of the Casino in Viva Las Pegasus when Applejack was reluctant on asking Flim and Flam for help, making Bucky groan, for he really hated those guys. When Starlight was nervous in spending time with the Mane 5.
“Glad you didn’t use that spell on us.” said Bolt “Cause I don’t want to know what you would’ve done to us. I mean a single girl, with five super-hot guys.”
Everyone looked at Bolt with flexed eyebrows as he said “What?”
“Okay,” said Bucky “All in favor for hitting Bolt at the back of the head for saying something stupid, say aye.”
“Aye.” said everyone in the room.
“Hey!!” shouted Bolt.
Rainbow then giggled loudly, which caused Bolt to look at her with a stink eye as she said ‘sorry, I’m just glad it’s not me for once.”
When Applejack, Rarity and Pinkie Pie blame each other for their disastrous trip as Twilight got to the bottom of things.
“You girls really shouldn’t blame each other like that.” said Beau “You should never jump to conclusions. As Twilight told Starlight, if something doesn’t work out the way you expect it to, work through it together.”
Twilight bumped her elbow at Beau with a smile, as she was glad that he knew that lesson, with Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Applejack realizing that they were right, and realized that they should’ve tried to work things out. When Applejack and Granny Smith told Apple Bloom the embarrassing story of how Applejack lied do much when she was a filly, the whole family ended up in the hospital.
“Now that was quite an impressive story.” said Bucky, with Granny Smith chuckling, for she couldn’t agree more.
When Rainbow Dash and Twilight had to solve a friendship problem at the Wonderbolt Academy. And finally, where Starlight, Trixie, Discord and Thorax had to save the Mane 6, Celestia, Luna, Spike, Shining Armour, Cadance and Flurry Heart from Chrysalis after she kidnapped them.
“And we couldn’t be happier.” said Beau as he and the Mane 6’s husbands hugged their wives, even Platinum and Nebula did the same for Celestia and Luna.
Sure enough, the papers from each book were stacked up neatly, with Emily taking a few clean pages as she wrote on top, “This book is based on actual events. All characters that were written in this book are actual and real live characters that have been interviewed and desired to share their experience to those who would want a friend”. Sure enough, she placed it on top of each page of the six books.
“And that should do it.” said Twilight Velvet as she looked at them.
“Great,” said Ember “Now all we have to do is to publish them.”
“And hope everypony sees things from our friends” perspective.” said Big Daddy McColt.
They suddenly heard more typing from another type writer. When they looked, they saw Emily had her own type writer and was busy typing things down, whilst also wearing some reading glasses, which Spike loved.
“Emily?” said Frosty “What are you doing?”
“Well,” said Emily as she adjusted her glasses as she looked at them “From what I had learnt a long time ago, as one person had finished telling them their story, that doesn’t mean that their story is over. So I decided to write some things down from their continuous adventures.”
“Oh?” said Celestia as it had just perked her interest. “Like what?”
“Well…” said Emily as she looked through the papers. “From the time that Twilight struggled to figure out where to send Starlight when she was not only awarded a medal, but also her graduation.”
“Oh yeah,” said Thorax “That was quite the surprise.”
Emily smirked as she then said “And the time Starlight tried to teach Trixie a few new spells, but ended up teleporting their friendship map to the Ponyville Spa.”
‘she did what?!!” shouted Twilight, which made her look at Trixie, making her chuckle nervously.
Emily then read “When Shining Armour and Cadance came over and wanted Twilight to look after Flurry Heart, but you had to cheer up a ton of fillies who had the bad case of the Horsey Hives.”
“And seriously Twilight, why didn’t you just ask me for help,” said Beau “I would’ve loved to help you out, and I bet Moonlight would’ve gained some experience having fun with children, and also keep Flurry Heart in check.”
“I know,” said Twilight “But my parents really wanted to spend some time with Moonlight.”
Speaking of which, both of Twilight’s parents were cuddling little Moonlight as she giggled “And we wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Emily then read out next “When Maud graduated and Pinkie tried to convince her to move to Ponyville.”
“Which she could’ve just backed off and give Maud a chance to make her own decisions.” said Frosty with a flexed eyebrow, which made Pinkie giggle nervously.
“When Fluttershy wanted to build an animal sanctuary for the animals.” said Emily.
“Ah,” said Genus as he had some fond memories “And where everyone came together to help.”
“That’s an experience I’ll never forget.” said Big Daddy McColt as he also smiled with pride over that.
“And where Rarity tried to spent some time with Sweetie Belle.” said Emily.
Silver couldn’t help but chuckle, as he then said ‘though to be fair, you both looked ridiculous in those costumes.”, which caused Rarity and Sweetie Belle to puff their cheeks, but couldn’t help but chuckle, for he did have a point.
“Let’s see…” said Emily as she adjusted her glasses and read through the next part “Ah yes, when Rainbow’s parents found out she was a Wonderbolt and they supported her effortlessly.”
Bolt couldn’t help but chuckle, as he said “I know you don’t like being praised all the time, but if you had a problem with it, you could’ve just talked to them, or work things out.”
“I did.” said Rainbow in a low gruff tone.
“Then again,” said Windy Whistles “We weren’t that professional about it either, and should’ve listened to her too.”
Emily read next “When the CMC tried to help give Big Mac some confidence to ask out Sugar Belle.”
Sugar Belle giggled as she said “That was really romantic.”
“Eeyup.” said Big Mac as she and Sugar Belle nuzzled with each other.
Emily then said “And the most interesting part, when Rarity asked Applejack to be one of the judges at the next generation of Fashionista.”
‘speaking of which,” said Bucky as he looked at Rarity “What were you thinking asking Applejack?”
“I only wanted her honest opinion.” said Rarity in defense.
‘so you asked the one pony,” said Bolt “With no fashion sense whatsoever, who doesn’t like girly things whatsoever, who grew up on a farm to farm apples, to host a fashion show that she has no interest in whatsoever?”
When all of a sudden, Photo Finish spoke up as she said “In all fairness, he does have a point.”
“Quite right.” said Hoity Toity, causing Rarity to blush bright red.
“And speaking of which Rarity,” said Coco “Why didn’t you call me or Sassy to help you out?”
“Yes, we both have great experience.” said Sassy Saddles “Or your husband.”
“Oh I wasn’t here because I was busy getting Crystal Gem registered.” said Silver.
‘registered?” asked Rarity, for she was surprised to hear this.
“I can explain that,” said Celestia. “When my sister and I met both Platinum and Nebula, they explained a few things on how their law system works. Citizen registration is the same on their world as it is on ours. But then Platinum gave us an idea.”
“What if we were to do the same with both the newborn and the child.” said Platinum “The doctors first look the baby over to see if they’re healthy, then they’ll be easily registered and become a citizen.”
“And over the years as they grow up,” said Nebula “We will be able to keep track of them, like their health, their education and so on.”
“Indeed,” said Luna “And surprisingly, the Nobles of Canterlot approved of this idea. Many of them have children and they wish to help them on standby just in case. It helped a great deal for many citizens in Equestria.”
“That’s right.” said Silver, then looked at Rarity as he said “I just want to prepare our daughter just in case. To be ready to help her in her time of need.”
Rarity couldn’t help but smile as she held onto her husband, hugging him. The two of them then noticed Crystal Gem as she reached her little arms to them, wanting to hold them, which they did with smiles of their own, cherishing their little girl.
Emily then continued to read it further. “Where Starlight had to help Celestia and Luna when they had problems with each other, thinking that one has easier than the other…?” said Emily as she looked at the two of them with a flexed eyebrow.
Normally they would argue, but after hearing Silver’s statement, they sighed in defeat, realizing that they have a point, for what they nearly did back in Canterlot when Starlight visited, it was Nightmare Moon all over again.
“And when Pinkie Pie went to help Rutherford at Yakyakistan when their place was snowed over, but they refused to accept her help.” said Emily.
“They’re so stubborn to ask for help.” said Pinkie, which caused Rutherford to look at her with a flexed eyebrow, with Pinkie Pie giggling nervously as she said “Uh, no offense.”
“He’s not stubborn because of his title Pinkie,” said Frosty “He is that way because he must be. For every decision and every action must be done for the good of his people. If others see him ask for help, they will think he is weak, but every Yak Prince before Rutherford, knows that the Yaks of Yakyakistan look to their leaders for strength. If they don’t see it, well things just won’t end well.”
Most of the Yaks were surprised that Frosty deduced it so quickly, even Rutherford was impressed. He placed his hand over Frosty’s left shoulder as he said “Husband of Pink Pony Friend have good head on shoulder.”
“Eh, I try.” said Frosty with shrugged shoulders.
Emily then read next “When Discord wanted to host his first Tea Party for Fluttershy.”
“Oh yes,” said Discord “You wouldn’t believe how stressed I was for wanting to host a party she liked, until she taught me that even though we’re different, we can always enjoy each other’s company.”
“Now if only you can learn not to betray another’s trust.” said Genus, with Discord being surprised and feel guilty, for he does have a point.
“And finally,” said Emily as she wiped a tear away “When the Apple siblings found out the truth about their mother, and why Granny Smith doesn’t talk about it much.”
“Oh yeah,” said Bucky as he remembered, for he was there “That was quite heartbreaking.”
Twilight however, noticed that the pages were only halfway, then looked at Emily as he asked “Emily, why is this halfway?”
“Well it’s not finished yet,” said Emily “I mean all the things that the others have written for the six books, those are only those that caught others” attention, as well as the adventures that all of you have told. About the friendship Journal, I’ll type that part another day, but until then, we just wait and see what else will come our way.”
‘she’s right,” said Frosty “For just because a story might come to an end, doesn’t mean that their adventures are over, but only a new beginning, as what Beau and the others, even Emily and myself, had learned a long time ago.”
‘so for now,” said Emily “We’ll print those six books first. So until the time comes, and it will, we’ll add more stories to the collection. And once we get a killer ending for that, it’ll be finished.”
“Killer ending?” asked Spike.
“You know,” said Beau “Near the end of the book there’s always something big happening. The Changeling Invasion, defeating Chrysalis and concluding the Wedding. Twilight becoming a Princess. Facing Tirek, and then Starlight when she wanted to go back in time and tried to destroy Equestria…no offense Starlight.”
“None taken.” said Starlight.
‘don’t worry,” said Sunset as she gently elbowed Starlight “You’ll get used to it.”
‘very well then,” said Celestia in a gentle tone “We shall ask our publishers to publish them first thing in the morning. And soon enough, every creature will know of all of you heroics and discoveries of friendship.”
“Yaks will be the first to read.” said Prince Rutherford.
“I second that,” said Ember, then pointed out and said “Just make sure that they’re fireproof when you send them to the dragon lands.”
‘sometimes I wonder why I didn’t think to ask Twilight that,” said Spike as he remembered the embarrassing ordeal “Could’ve saved me a lot of time and trouble.”
“I’ll work on that later Spike.” said Twilight.
Pretty soon, everyone felt hope about those journals turned novels will do a much better job at telling their stories to the ponies who didn’t understand them.
What any husband would do
Six days had passed since they published the journal, and all of them are hoping things will turn out okay. Back at the Boutique in Ponyville, Silver had just finished designing his clothes as he placed his pen on the table and rubbed his eyes. He stood up and walked over to the crib, where little Crystal Gem cooed as she wanted attention. Silver couldn’t help but smile as he slowly placed his hand at the side of her face, with her accepting her father’s touch.
“Hey there little one, hello.” said Silver as he gently picked her up and nuzzled her, which she enjoyed as she giggled.
“Just when I thought there wasn’t much more about you that I love.” said Rarity, gaining Silver’s attention as she was standing at the door, wearing her working glasses.
“Oh?” said Silver as he noticed “Back at work, are we?”
“Have to find something to keep myself busy,” said Rarity as she adjusted her glasses and walked over to Silver “Considering what we’ve been through the past few days.”
“I can imagine.” said Silver, until he noticed that Crystal Gem wants to hold her mother, with Silver smiling as he said “I think our little girl wants to hold her mother.”
Rarity giggled as she held her daughter and rocked her a bit. Silver then walked over to the table to help reorganize both his and Rarity’s work.
After Rarity rocked her a bit, she looked at Silver, and asked out of concern. ‘silver, darling.” said Rarity.
“Hmm?” said Silver as he partially looked at her, whilst he focused on both his and his wife’s work.
“After we’ve met and been together for so long, and after the birth of our daughter,” said Rarity as she looked at him face forward “Why didn’t you tell me about your sister. I didn’t even know about her until you told us.”
“It’s…something I’m not proud of.” said Silver. “When you and Sweetie Belle mentioned about the time that you didn’t want to spend time with her at the Sisterhood social, and again when she tried to sabotage your work because she was jealous of you, it brought that memory back.”
After he was done sorting things out, he turned around to face her whilst he leaned against the table as he said “I wanted to tell you, but I figured I would when I was ready. With what happened between not just you and Sweetie Belle, but also every sibling in the room, I didn’t want all of you to go through the same thing I did.”
Silver then gently rubbed the baby’s head, which made her giggle, with the two of them watching with smiles. They then focused on one another as Silver said “I made a promise on our wedding day that I would protect you and make you happy, no matter what. What those ponies did to you wasn’t fair. I couldn’t stand seeing you hurt, and I don’t want Crystal Gem to go through the same thing you did. I want you two to have a bright future, and I’m sure that Beau and the others felt the same way since the day that all of them got married.”
Rarity couldn’t help but shed a tear, and slowly embraced her husband after kissing him on the lips. They even placed their foreheads onto each other, whilst keeping their eyes closed with smiles. “Oh Silver. I am so happy that you came into my life.”
“That goes ditto for me.” said Silver.
When all of a sudden, somepony knocked on their door, gaining their attention. “Oh?” said Rarity as she looked at the door “I wonder who that could be?”
Both Rarity and Silver approached the door, with Silver shielding her, for it might be those ponies who were criticizing Rarity. He slowly opened the door and looked outside. And to his surprise, it was none other than Derpy.
“Hello mister Silver.” said Derpy with a salute.
“Oh, Derpy,” said Silver as he and Rarity both stood together “I didn’t expect any mail today.”
“Oh, it’s for both you and Rarity.” said Derpy as she pulled out a package with two letters on top and gave it to them.
“Oh, uh, thank you Derpy.” said Rarity as she accepted the package and lifted it up using her magic.
Derpy then placed her hand on Silver’s shoulder as she said “Great job standing up to those meanies. Equestria could use more people like you.”
“Oh uh, thanks Derpy.” said Silver “How much do I…?”
“No need,” said Derpy as she waved her hand “You standing up for your wife and daughter, as well as reminding us of what they sacrificed for. That’s payment enough from all of us. See you later.”
Derpy flew off to deliver her next mail, until she crashed into a billboard with her butt still sticking out, as she said “My bad!”
Silver couldn’t help but chuckle at her predicament. ‘man, sometimes I wonder how that girl’s employed and still manage to find a way to keep others” spirits up.”
“It’s a mystery for all of us darling.” said Rarity after she and Silver closed the door behind them.
Rarity used her magic to unseal the first letter and pulled it out. She placed her glasses on as she read it out loud.
‘dear Miss Rarity
We at the High Equestrian Society would like to express our deepest apology for the amount of disrespect we have given to both you and your friends. Please accept this package containing of how much we wish to express our apology. We were wrong to misjudge you. We wish you the best for your future and hope you and your family will have a prosperous future
Sincerely
High Expectations
President of the High Equestrian Society”
Silver was surprised to hear this. “Wow, I didn’t know Equestria had a high society. Well, besides the Nobles at Canterlot of course.”
“Oh they are the talk of the kingdom darling.” said Rarity “I wonder what they sent over?”
Rarity opened the package as she placed it on the table. She then looked at them, and to her surprise, they’re all request letters. “Oh…my…”
“Uh oh.” said Silver when he realized what was going to happen.
He plugged in both his ears and his daughters”, causing Rarity to shriek out loud. But it was not dread, but excitement.
“Whoa, Rarity, what’s wrong?” asked Silver once the coast is cleared.
Rarity walked over to Silver as she said ‘darling, they’re requests, the HES themselves wish to order more of my designs, and they’ve sent me the checks of bits to help them make it. They even wish for me to open new boutiques at Van Hoover, Las Pegasus and Fillydelphia, which happens to have three vacant buildings that can be managed by managers with thorough fashion managing backgrounds.”
“Wow, that’s amazing.” said Silver as he also got excited.
Rarity hugged her husband tight, for she’s so happy that not only is her status restored, but now she has an even bigger business opportunity. However, she noticed the second letter.
‘darling what’s that?” asked Rarity, causing Silver to notice. He opened the letter and read through it.
“Huh,” said Silver. “Apparently this is a restraining order. I have to stay a hundred and fifty feet away from Diamond Cutter.”
Silver folded the letter as he said “Well to be fair he won’t be able to sit for a week, not after the trauma he went through.”
Silver and Rarity looked at one another. And as such, the two snickered, then laughed out loud really hard, until Rarity stopped themselves from laughing.
“That’s not funny darling.” said Rarity as she was trying to contain herself.
“I know,” said Silver as he wiped a tear away “But funny or not, he had it coming.”
Silver then looked at their daughter, then looked at Rarity as he said “When our daughter’s old enough to walk and talk, we do not mention this to her at all, ever. Until she’s eighteen.”
‘deal.” said Rarity, whom she couldn’t agree more.
Sweet Feather Sanctuary
At Sweet Feather Sanctuary, Fluttershy and Genus were busy attending to their animals, making sure all of them are well fed and taken care of, with Doctor Fauna coming over to give them a helping hand. Genus knew not to interfere with the animal experts, namely Fluttershy and Doctor Fauna, even though he has experience working at the animal shelter back at his old human home, he is an amazing assistance helping them in any way he could. Whilst from a nearby crib, Angel Bunny tried to feed Warm Breeze, which the little one accepted, but then ended up gently hugging him. Angel then suddenly couldn’t help but fall asleep next to the little guy whilst the others were busy helping the animals.
“There you go.” said Fluttershy as she fed some of the animals.
“I gotta say, it’s been pretty quiet the past week.” said Genus “Which is the way I like it. Don’t you agree Trusty?”
Trusty barked as he agreed. It then picked up a bird seed bag and walked over to Dr. Fauna, gaining her attention as she realized what Trusty was doing.
“Good dog Trusty.” said Dr. Fauna.
Fluttershy stood up and walked over to Genus. She stood behind him as she said “Um…Genus?”
Genus looked behind and saw Fluttershy. He stood up and dusted his hands as he said “Hey Fluttershy, what’s up?”
Fluttershy then slowly held her husband’s hands. She still felt a bit shy, but she felt brave near him as she said “I just wanted to thank you for, well, standing up for me and my friends.”
“I’ll say,” said Discord as he appeared on top of one of the trees and drinking an umbrella drink. “I had no idea you had this much of an assertive level.”
“Normally I wouldn’t resort to this,” said Genus “But the thought about you getting hurt. It just…drove me crazy. I had to make a stand.”
“And you mentioned that…you were like me once?” asked Fluttershy.
“Yes. But over the years with some of the friends I made they helped me be brave.” said Genus “I learned to stand up for others, stand up to those who would wrong them in so many ways.”
Genus then held Fluttershy’s hands close to his chest as he said “And when the thought about you being hurt…it just drove me crazy. I just wanted you to be happy. Seeing that smile of yours…it helps me be at my best, at my bravest. And I eventually became friends with your friends. I even enjoyed working alongside Dr. Fauna whenever she needed help. She really is good at nursing them back to health, I can see why you like her so much.”
Genus then gently hugged her, which she blushed and felt flustered, even though she’s already married. “It’s because of you that I got a second chance in life the day you took me in. I owe you so much. That’s why I love you so much. Your kindness helped me follow the light in the darkest of tunnels.”
Fluttershy couldn’t help but shed tears of joy as she hugged her husband, her happiness overflowing in her. Genus hugged her back, knowing that he restored his wife’s smile.
Trusty suddenly barked, gaining their attention as they looked to their left. They saw a handful of ponies, those who picked on Fluttershy, walked over to her and lowered their heads the moment they stopped. Both Fluttershy and Genus recognized them, and they could tell that all of them feel guilty the way they treated her, for what they did wasn’t fair to her, and it’s very understandable. They could tell that they wish to make up for what they did.
Fluttershy simply walked over and picked up a bag of food for the animals and brought it over to one of them. She handed it to one of them, gaining their attention. She then gestured to the animals, showing that she needed help. They ended up smiling and walked over to the group, helping them feed the animals. If one wants forgiveness for what transpired, they needed to start somewhere.
Wonderbolt Academy
At the Wonderbolt Academy, Bolt decided to take their baby, Bolt Jr. to the Academy, whilst they watched Rainbow Dash perform her stunts alongside her fellow Wonderbolts just so that she could focus on something other than the fans fixated on her all the time.
Bolt Jr., who had just been recently born three days ago, watched from his father’s lap as he cooed with glee, watching his mother performing, with Bolt saying “That’s right Jr. Mama Dash is flying like a true ace. Would you like to hug her when she lands?”
The baby giggled as he hopped for joy, with Bolt chuckling, seeing his son’s excitement. “I’ll take that as a yes.”
However, the moment when Rainbow Dash and her fellow bolts landed to take a quick breather, Bolt Jr. could no longer wait as he instantly jumped up and flew straight towards his mother, which surprised Bolt as he quickly got up, ran towards Dash whilst he shouted “Incoming!!”
Rainbow looked at the direction that Bolt was shouting, which surprised her when she saw Bolt Jr. flying towards her, and instantly went onto her lap as she caught him.
“Whoa, easy there squirt.” said Rainbow Dash as she chuckled, whilst taking off her goggles and hugging her son.
“Whoa, look who it is.” said Soarin as he and Spitfire, Fleetfoot and Misty Fly walked over to Rainbow whilst they were excited to see the little guy.
“Barely more than a few months old and he’s already flying like a pro.” said Fleetfoot.
‘so little guy,” said Spitfire as the baby looked at her as Bolt finally arrived “What did you think of our performance?”
And just like that, Bolt Jr. said “100% cooler.”, whilst waving its little arms in the air.
The others couldn’t help but laugh over the little guy’s praise. ‘man this kid’s full of spirit.” said Misty Fly.
As Rainbow held her son close, she then thought about what happened a week ago. She then looked at Bolt, held him close as she nuzzled against his face, which Bolt enjoyed feeling her soft fur. Or would’ve if she wasn’t also wearing the Wonderbolt Mask.
“Bolt,” said Rainbow Dash as she looked at Bolt “I just…well…what I want to say is…”
Bolt held her close as he said ‘take your time Dashie. I’m in no rush.”
Rainbow then let out a sigh, calming down as she looked at him with a smile. “I just wanted to thank you for, you know, backing me and the girls up from the critics out there.”
“Are you kidding?” said Bolt “You’re my wife, my special somepony, of course I’d protect you. I made a promise that I would no matter what look after you. You being unhappy, makes it my mission to make sure you are happy. And Junior agrees, don’t you little guy?”
Bolt Jr. cooed as he agreed with his dad. Bolt then looked at Rainbow’s fellow bolts as he said ‘thanks again for coming to Rainbow’s defense.”
“No problem,” said Spitfire with her usual smile. “Like you guys said, Rainbow and the others also made mistakes but at least they’re honest about it. And no bolt was ever perfect when they first started out. But it takes a braver pony to admit them.”
“Not to mention she and the others saved Equestria like, a dozen times.” said Fleetfoot.
“And the Wonderbolts also made a vow,” said Soarin “That if any member of the Wonderbolts are harassed or picked on, then we stick with them through thick and thin.”
“And when you told us about what was happening to Dash,” said Misty Fly “We were more than obliged to help out.”
‘thanks again by the way.” said Bolt. He chuckled a bit, then he said “Wished I could fly like all of you, otherwise I would’ve been glad to fly alongside all of you as a Wonderbolt.”
Spitfire then began to think, then pulled out what appeared to be a kind of pass and handed it over to him.
“You may not be a flyer like us,” said Spitfire as she stood near him “But the fact that you stood up to others trying to protect our own. That’s the true bravery of a Wonderbolt if I had ever seen one. So we talked about this, and even though you’re not a flyer, we’d like you as President of the Wonderbolts” new club.”
Bolt and Rainbow Dash were surprised by this, with Rainbow saying “What club?”
“It’s like this Crash.” said Spitfire as she explained things to her “We may have some fan clubs, but we also have an exclusive club that would allow any member to watch our shows, the VIP’s if you will. We’ve been meaning to have a new president of the club ever since our last one retired.”
Bolt was surprised at first, for this felt quite an honor. “Wow um, thanks.” said Bolt as he accepted it.
“But don’t even think about giving Crash special treatment just because you’re in charge of a club.” said Spitfire as she immediately poked him in the chest as they were nose to nose.
“No worries,” said Silver “If I wanted to give her special treatment, I would do it in bed with her.”
Rainbow immediately blushed bright red as she said “B-Bolt!!”, causing the rest of the bolts to laugh.
“Excuse me, ma’am.” said one of the Wonderbolt Guards, gaining their attention as they said “You have some visitors.”
When they saw, it were the fillies and few ponies that were fixated on Rainbow, all of them feeling guilty as they tried to look at them. At first the rest of the bolts were cautious, until one of the ponies walked up to Rainbow.
“We just uh…” said one of the fillies as she felt nervous, but eventually spoke as she said “We just wanted to apologize for earlier. Following you around and all. We should’ve known better.”
“Yeah, you should’ve.” said Soarin.
“Is there a way we can make it up to you?” asked the filly.
Rainbow thought about something, then quickly signaled the others to a huddle. They talked for a bit, and when they were done, they immediately turned to the others and looked at them.
“There is a way.” said a smiling Rainbow.
“We could always use a lot of set of eyes to watch our performance, see what we did wrong.” said Spitfire.
“That is if you can behave yourself?” reminded Bolt.
They got excited as they thought it would be a great idea. “Are you kidding?! We’d be honored.”
Bolt Jr. suddenly flew in the air and took off. They watched him fly in the air as he did the largest loop de loops, corkscrews, as well as twirling. The Wonderbolts and the other ponies were surprised to see him fly fast and performing stunts, especially his age.
‘did you happen to fly like that when you were a foal?” asked Bolt.
“Nope,” said Dash “I didn’t fly that fast until I was at least a few years older than him.”
They saw Bolt Jr. was extremely high up in the sky, higher than what anypony had seen. Bolt Jr. then stuck his tongue out as he focused on something. Like any daring little one, he pulled back and with great speed, flew straight towards the ground at high speed. He was going faster and faster, which shocked the Wonderbolts, even Rainbow and Bolt when they saw Jr. fly fast.
“Junior slow down!!” shouted Bolt “If you fly too fast, you’re gonna…!!!”
But before they could react, in one swift move, Bolt Jr. instantly made a Sonic Rainboom, leaving behind a rainbow trail, much to the awe of others, even Rainbow and Bolt with their mouths agape. They saw Bolt Jr. fly superfast all around the Academy, then eventually made his way towards his parents. Then he instantly landed into his mother’s arms as he giggled widely and waving his arms around, with Bolt quickly coming over.
“Holy…” said Bolt as he looked at Rainbow ‘did you see that?”
“I don’t believe it,” said Rainbow “He performed his first Sonic Rainboom.” Instantly, Rainbow began to get teary eyed and hugged her son as she said “I’m so proud.”
Even the Wonderbolts were amazed as they gathered near the little guy. “Whoa, look at that.” said Soarin.
What they saw took them all by surprise. Bolt Jr. had his first Cutie Mark. A rainbow lightning bolt like his mother’s, but also a heart behind it. “Whoa,” said Misty Fly “He’s already gotten his Cutie Mark.”
“But what does the cutie mark mean?” asked Misty Fly “I know the rainbow lightning bolt is like Rainbow Dash’s, but what’s with the heart.”
“I think I know,” said Fleetfoot “The heart represents of how much he loves his family, as well as his love for flying.”
“This. Is. Awesome!!” shouted Rainbow as she squealed with excitement as she twirled him around and hugged her son, with Bolt hugging the two of them altogether.
Ponyville Cemetery
At the Ponyville Cemetery, Pinkie Pie and Frosty were visiting a certain grave of an old friend. Pinkie Pie was resting some flowers on top of a grave. On the grave was a tombstone, that had Sunny’s name on it. And they weren’t alone, for among them were the rest of her family. Namely Igneous Pie, Cloudy Quartz, Limestone Pie, Maud Pie and Marble Pie, when they wanted to help comfort her.
“Can’t believe it’s almost been fifteen years since that day.” said Pinkie Pie whilst she was on her knees.
“You must really miss him.” said Frosty as he stood next to his wife.
“You have no idea.” said Pinkie Pie as she wiped a tear, but her mane didn’t deflate.
Marble stood on her knees too and hugged Pinkie, for she wished she was there for her big sister, but she was too young to remember any of this. And for the first time, Marble spoke as she said ‘sunny would’ve been proud of you for keeping your promise, Pinkie.”
‘so that’s what you sound like.” thought Frosty to himself.
Maud walked over to Pinkie and stood on her one knee and placing her hand on her shoulder as she said ‘sunny may not be here alive and everything, but if he could see you right now, he’d be honored that you’re trying to keep your promise every day.”
“Indeed.” said Igneous ‘though thou friend have departed from this world, he is in a better place. And I’m sure he is still in heaven, watching out for thou from above.”
“And we know how much thou friend meant to you when you tried to help him smile.” said Cloudy Quartz.
Frosty noticed that Limestone was standing next to him, and she desperately wanted to let it out, but she just didn’t know how to.
“Look…uh…you see…” said Limestone as she struggled.
“It’s okay Limestone.” said Frosty “If you’re not comfortable of saying what you want to, I understand. Remember, the way you’re always you and not liking to express on how you feel, I felt the same way when I lost my parents. Just know that even though I may already have a sister, but since the day I married Pinkie, I finally gained three new awesome ones.”
Marble couldn’t help but feel surprised, then blushed with a smile, even Maud showed her small smile as she appreciated what Frosty had said. Limestone however felt all better from what Frosty declared, so she let out a sigh and said what she wanted to say.
“Look Frosty,” said Limestone. “Ever since I first met you, I didn’t like how you were friendly like with my sister.”
“Because you love her and you wanted to protect her.” said Frosty.
“Exactly.” said Limestone, managing a smile “I had a hard time for a while to accept that you two were married. But after you wrote to us about what was going on, and when we saw you stand up to them and defended Pinkie Pie. Well…you surprised and impressed me.”
‘thanks,” said Frosty “I’m just glad I didn’t act like Silver earlier and did what he did.”
They began to shiver as they thought about that, even Limestone. “I’m glad too.” said Maud in her expressionless mood, but Frosty could tell she was happy that he didn’t resort to that either. And he was also glad that Pinkie taught him how to tell her mood, even when it doesn’t show on her face.
Marble looked back and was surprised to see who was coming, so she poked on Pinkie’s shoulder, as well as the others. When they turned, they were surprised to see who was there. The ponies that kept laughing at Pinkie, but instead of laughter, they had somewhat saddened expressions on their faces. And all of them were carrying flowers with them. Sure enough, ponies walked towards Sunny’s grave and placed flowers on top.
“Pinkie,” said Berry Punch as she and the others were close by “We’re so sorry of what we put you through. We had no idea that’s the reason why you hosted so many parties. But now we know. We had no idea you were doing this to honor a friend that you made a promise to.”
“Well you should’ve.” said Limestone, not trusting them after what they put Pinkie through.
“We promise we’ll be more considerate from now on.” said one of the ponies “If you could…give us another chance.”
Pinkie then thought about it. She could tell they were really telling that they were sorry. She then crossed her arms and pretended not to care. “Okay, I’ll consider it. On one condition.”
“Anything.” said the Stallion next to Berry Punch.
She then went to her wild party persona and shouted “If all of you will help me set up for Beau’s birthday tomorrow silly fillies.”
Some were surprised, then got excited, and all of them nodded in agreement. Pinkie then looked at her family with smiles. “Would you like to stay over for the party too?”
“I don’t know…” said Limestone, for they really needed to get back to work at the Rock Farm.
“Please.” said Pinkie with pouty eyes.
“Oh, okay.” said Limestone as she smiled “Only if you promise to come back to the Rock Farm to organize a party for Marble.”
‘deal.” said Pinkie with a gleeful smile, even Frosty couldn’t help but smile as he hugged Pinkie from behind.
Sweet Apple Acres
At Sweet Apple Acres, every Apple family member chose to stay a bit with Applejack and the others to make sure that they were okay. Golden Delicious and the others were staying with Granny Smith to make sure that she’s okay, considering what the poor dear went through, even Babs Seed and the others chose to keep Apple Bloom company, with her feeling just as relieved to have some familiar faces around her. Applejack, Braeburn and half of the Apples were busy bucking the apples so that they could fall onto their designated baskets, whilst Bucky and the other half were gathering the baskets to either the carts, cellars or turning them into Apple Ciders later on. But from every ten baskets, Bucky decided to go over and see if Apple Slice was okay. He picked him up and rocked him a little bit, with Apple Slice liking it.
Bucky looked to his left and said “Hey Apple Slice, look, who’s that beautiful angel coming over here?”
‘mama.” said Apple Slice as he giggled.
“That’s a good boy.” said Bucky.
Applejack chuckled when Apple Slice said ‘mama”, then picked her son up as she rocked him a bit.
“Uh, Bucky?” said Applejack as she looked at her husband.
“Yes Applejack?” said Bucky.
“Ah know ya just want to protect the farm, and ah’m glad that Princess Celestia chose to help out, but is having them guards around really necessary?” said Applejack as she pointed at their property, being guarded by Celestia’s guards, whilst also patrolling at the same time.
“Hey, after the way those jerks invaded your privacy and ate nearly everything out of the farm, freeloading and nearly put you four into near meltdown, I’m not taking any chances.” said Bucky.
“Besides,” said Bucky as he rubbed his left arm “I don’t want to lose you guys like I lost my little sister. You took me in when I was all alone, and not to mention since the day I married you, I gained a family, one that accepted me for who I am, despite my appearances. Which is why I making a promise that I would protect my new one, no matter what.”
“Aw, that’s mighty sweet of you Sugarcube,” said Granny Smith with a smile. “Ah’m glad that we accepted you in the family too.”
‘darn tootin,” said Golden Delicious “You’re also the sweetest boy ah ever met. Even visited me every week just to check up on me and see if ah was okay.”
“Well of course,” said Bucky “You live far away from Ponyville and you don’t have any family relatives to look after you, of course I would come and visit, just to make sure you’re okay.”
“Oh you’re just so sweet.” said Apple Sauce.
“If only there were more ponies like you out there.” said Apple Rose.
“Yeah,” said Bucky “Wish my parents were like that.”, then looked at Applejack “I really wished I could’ve met yours. From what Burnt Oak, Mrs. Cake and Mayor Mare told me, they really must’ve been sweeter than an Apple Pie coated with sugar and topped it with Apple Jam and apple tarts.”
He was getting some odd stares from those who overheard him. ‘sorry,” said Bucky as he chuckled “Guess the countryisms are starting to rub off on me.”
Big Mac couldn’t help but chuckle as he said “Eeyup. But uh, it still needs work.”
“I got all the time in the world big brother.” said Bucky, which Big Mac felt touched and ended up giving him the biggest bear hug.
After being released from the hug, and trying to re-stretch his back, Applejack walked over and held her husband close, with Braeburn saying “And I have to say, things have been getting really interesting ever since you came along. But ah gotta know, are humans always this aggressive?”
“Only when we need to be.” said Bucky. ‘to be honest I was a bit nervous cause I thought all of you wouldn’t accept me to be part of the family. But I have to admit, meeting all of you at the Apple Family Reunion. It felt…good. I’ve never been that happy since, well, ever. Well, except the day when AJ and I got married. But uh…”
“We got married at the day of the reunion,” reminded a smiling Applejack “Was the only time that our family could come together to see the wedding.”
“And the trouble we had to go through to find our friends some space,” said Bucky, then snickered as he said “Not to mention Rarity fussing over what to wear. She wouldn’t shut up about it either.”
Applejack laughed, for she remembered that day. “Yeah, ah’m just glad Silver calmed her down, especially since they were able to make it to the wedding after they got back from Las Pegasus.”
“Especially after their big night.” said Bucky, with Applejack watching him with a flexed eyebrow. “When they got back, I saw the smiles on their faces. And how would I know that? It’s the same smile you had after our night together.”
Applejack blushed as she elbowed Bucky, but chuckled a bit. She then smiled warmly and looked at him. “Ah’m really happy what ya did for us that day Bucky.”
Bucky wrapped his arms around her, whilst making sure the love would be shared with Apple Slice, with him smiling as he said “Anything for the Apple of my eye.”
She smirked before they kissed one another. When all of a sudden, one of the guards came by, gaining their attention. “Excuse me ma’am,” said the guard “You have a delivery.”
When they looked, they saw a handful of guards, carrying over eight chests and placing it nearby, which surprised some who saw them coming. “Whoa, who sent them?” asked Bucky.
“There was a note attached to it sir.” said the guard as he handed it to them.
“Uh, thank you kindly.” said Applejack, which allowed the guards to salute and leave so that they could have their privacy.
Applejack handed Bucky the note so that he could open it, considering that Applejack wanted to hold Apple Slice for just a little longer. Bucky opened the letter and read through it.
“Huh,” said Bucky as he was reading through it. “According to this, the so called admirers have written an apology note to the Apple Family and for the grief they’ve caused. So to make up for what they did, they sent us over some chests, saying that it’ll cover all the things they’ve eaten and drink without paying for it.”
“Uh, how much bits are we talking here?” said Big Mac.
Bucky walked over to the first chest and was able to open it. He was beyond surprised when he looked inside. He looked back and said “I think you should take a look at this.”
When they came over, they were surprised. For it wasn’t just bits, but also gold coins, as well as a few fancy jewels. “Ah don’t believe it.” said Applejack when he was looking at the chest.
“This’ll not only cover what they owe us,” said Big Mac “But also to ensure that we would get enough insurance to pay off any damages that Sweet Apple Acres might go through.”
“And also make sure that some of the bits are sent for Apple Slice’s education.” said Bucky, with Applejack looking at him surprised.
“Ya’ll would do that?” asked Applejack.
“Of course,” said Bucky “When a child is born, most parents would make sure they would pay enough money, er, bits, to make sure that their books and everything else are fully paid and will make sure that they would get enough writing material.”
Applejack was surprised by what Bucky said a parent would do, until she smirked a bit as she said “Ya’ll already went and paid ahead for the education, didn’t you?”
‘sure did,” said Bucky “When you were three months pregnant, I went things over with Miss Cheerilee, and she was quite impressed on how much I wanted to spend to make sure that our boy would get the education he needed.”
“Aw, that’s so sweet of you.” said Apple Sauce “You really are a true apple for the Apple family.”
“I only wanted what was best for our child.” said Bucky as he walked over to Apple Slicer and rubbed his forehead as he said “A future Apple for generations to come.”
Applejack held him close as she said “Ah’m really glad ya’ll are in my life Sugarcube.”
Applejack placed her lips on top of her husbands” which he returned whilst they held their child together, whilst the Apple Family couldn’t be prouder of how things turned out.
“Oh Bright Mac,” said Granny Smith in her thoughts “If only you and Pear Butter could be here so that they would know that yer just as proud of them as ah am.”
The Castle of Friendship
From within the Castle Library, Twilight and Emily were busy organizing the books in the Library, whilst Spike would go through a checklist to make sure the books are accounted for, with Beau making sure that Moonlight would be okay as he fed her, but then she wanted to spend some time with Flurry Heart, causing the two of them to fly around, acting like scary bears, but crossing their eyes as they tried to act goofy at the same time, with Shining Armour trying to catch up as Cadance was giggling when she saw how much fun they were having.
“Volume two hundred and forty four?” said Twilight.
“Check” said Spike.
“History of the Alicorn Sisters?” said Emily.
“Check.” said Spike.
Beau then smirked as he said out loud “Porn Magazines.”
“Check…” said Spike, but instantly blushed as red as a tomato whilst covering the checklist whilst looking at Beau “Hey!!!”
Beau then laughed out loud over Spike’s mistake, with Cadance snickering and Shining Armour also laughing. Twilight and Emily simply rolled their eyes over Beau’s little joke.
“Ugh, men.” said Emily.
‘tell me about it.” said Twilight. But then the two of them suddenly snickered too, for it was pretty funny.
As Spike pouted over what Beau just did, Beau suddenly heard the hot water whistling nearby, as he said “Oh, tea’s ready.”
As he left, Twilight called out ‘don’t forget to check on the milk’s temperature for Moonlight.”
“Will do, I’ll do the same for Flurry Heart if she wants.” said Beau.
“Oh, that would be great.” said Cadance.
After five minutes, Beau arrived with the tea, but surprisingly, Starlight was also there, helping him out with the tea, as well as carrying some cucumber and lettuce on whole-wheat that he made himself. As they sat down and enjoyed their meals, whilst Twilight and Cadance were feeding their babies, Starlight placed her cup down and looked at Beau.
“You know Beau,” said Starlight, gaining his attention “I’m actually impressed that you and the others stood up to them like that. Are humans always this aggressive?”
“Only when we need to be.” said Beau as he placed his cup down “We may not be perfect and we tend to get prone to violence, but when it comes to protecting a loved one, we tend to act crazy, aggressive, even defensive.”
Beau then looked at Twilight as he showed his soft smile “I mean, she took me in when no one else did, as did the rest of her friends when they took their husbands in, accepted them even. Fell in love. Got married. Had kids…”
Beau then rolled his eyes as he said “Well, except for Pinkie Pie and Frosty, but I have a feeling that it’ll be a great experience watching them trying to raise kids that are going to act as her little mini-ME’s.”
The others couldn’t help but chuckle over that statement. “Oh I can imagine Frosty’s going to have a field day with that.” said Emily as she couldn’t help but smirk widely over the thought.
“But my point is,” said Beau as he tried to finish “I owe her everything for what she did for me. How could I not fall head over heels for her. Fall in love and have a family with her.”
Twilight couldn’t help but feel teary eyed over Beau’s kind words. Moonlight noticed and suddenly used her magic to pull her father closer to her, which took both the parents by surprise as they were next to each other, allowing Beau to wrap his arm around her, and Twilight laying her head against his chest.
“But still,” said Beau as he said “How could they think Twilight wasn’t interesting enough ever since she became a princess. I mean, look at all the good she did, the things she accomplished, the trials she faced, even when she thought she would be defeated. With the help of others, she believed that victory and friendships was always possible, even in the face of overwhelming odds. She faced villains, monsters, made friends, even fought off a giant octopus.”
They were suddenly surprised by the last part, with Twilight slowly raising her head and looked at Beau as she said “Uh, Beau, we never faced a giant octopus.”
Beau shrugged his shoulders as he said “Eh, details, details. And who says that it won’t be able to happen.”
“I think you’re overdoing the praising your wife thing a bit.” said Emily.
“Yeah, we don’t need another Rainbow Dash on our hands.” said Spike.
“I heard that.” said Twilight, who wanted to give a stern look at Spike, but she was too comfortable to leave her husband’s chest, as she was used to lying her head down onto something.
Moonlight heard it too, causing her to make a pouty face and made her horn glow. Just as Spike was about to drink his tea, suddenly he felt a loud snap on his snout, causing him to yelp out loud, revealing a mousetrap, which the others were caught by surprise, as some couldn’t help but laugh over Spike’s predicament.
“Looks like Moonlight didn’t like what you said about her mother.” said Beau as he continued laughing.
“Oh ha, ha,” said Spike as he crossed his arms whilst Emily tried to remove the mousetrap ‘very funny.”
Shining Armour wiped the tear away after the hard laughter. He then looked Beau as he said “But uh, when you defended Twiley, did you really had to insult the old lady back there?”
“Uh, come to think of it.” said Beau as he said “Perhaps I got a little carried away with that.”
“But still, Beau had a point about that one reporter,” said Spike after the mousetrap had been removed and he rubbed the tip of his nose “How could he think she was a character when he printed her pictures on the newspaper the day, they gave her a princess status?”
“And not to mention the wings,” said Beau “How could no one notice those sexy angel wings.”
They looked at Beau with a flexed eyebrow, with him saying “What, she does. Plus when I first met her, I thought she was an angel sent from heaven.”
Twilight couldn’t help but blush by that last part as she smiled, until she changed her facial expression as he said ‘though I wished I had a better nickname than being called a “Hairless Ape”. I mean come on, do I look like a monkey? My feet, do not look like my hands.”
Twilight could barely contain her giggle, especially Cadance, Starlight and Emily, along with Flurry Heart and Moonlight.
‘twilight,” said Cadance ‘did the Nobles really think you were a joke when you became a princess?”
“It’s…not something I wanted to talk about.” said Twilight ‘remember the one pony who’s father’s in charge of making Canterlot’s royal airships and the other’s father is one of Celestia’s chief magistrates?”
‘those two?!!” said Shining Armour loudly.
“Ugh,” said Cadance as she leaned backwards “Why am I not surprised.”
“Wait, you know those two?” asked Starlight.
“You could say that.” said Shining Armour “They’re the same ones who insulted me when I first dated Cadance a while back. Even after when I got married.”
“Ugh, I don’t get those kind of people.” said Emily ‘sure they may be important political figures, but that doesn’t give them the reason or excuse to just shun others like that just because they’re not in the same league with them.”
“Plus, like Twilight told me, the very differences between us that makes our friendships strong. I don’t get what everypony can’t see it that way.” said Starlight.
‘two things,” said Beau “Ignorance and Pride.”
“You got some of those back at your world too, huh?” said Shining Armour.
“Oh, you have no idea.” said Beau and Emily at the same time.
“Although that perfection quote you mentioned was quite impressive.” said Twilight as she looked at him.
They heard a loud thud, making them look out of the window, revealing Derpy, who crashed against the window, and looked like as if she was flat whilst holding onto a mailbag.
“Wow,” said Beau as he said “Good thing Twiley added a spell to keep ponies from crashing through the windows from the outside.”
“Hey.” said Shining when he realized that Beau used the nickname, he gave his sister.
“Hey,” said Beau as he looked at Shining Armour and said “I have the right to say that too, now that I’m married to the most wonderful and a-dork-able pony in the world.”
Cadance, Shining Armour, Emily, Spike and Starlight looked at Beau with flexed eyebrows, with Twilight blushing as she added “It was…the nickname he came up for me about a month after he came to Equestria.”
As Twilight took a sip from her tea, Beau accidentally blurted out “And we even had sex before our first date.”
As Beau instantly covered his mouth in shock, Twilight spat out her tea in shock, with Shining Armour and the others surprised by what he said. “B-Beau!!” said Twilight as she was embarrassed whilst she was as red as a tomato.
‘sorry, it just came out.” said Beau.
Cadance however, only smirked as he said to Twilight “Wow, nice job. It took Shining at least twenty dates and after our marriage before we did the deed with me.”
They stared at Cadance surprised as she said “What, just because I’m married and have a daughter of my own doesn’t mean I don’t know how to have fun too.”
Many didn’t know how to respond to that. Beau on the other hand awkwardly stood up and said “I’m gonna go let Derpy in.”
Beau quickly let Derpy in as she held onto her mailbag. She then placed the bag on the ground and pulled out at least over a hundred letters until her bag was empty. ‘mail.” said the lovable Derpy.
“Uh, which one?” asked Beau.
“All of them for Princess Twilight.” said Derpy with her goofy smile.
“All of them?” said Starlight as she looked at the stack of letters in awe.
“Yep.” said Derpy with a salute ‘see you later.”
Derpy flew out of the window as Beau closed it and walked over to them. Twilight opened the first letter and took a quick read through it. “Huh,” said Twilight as she looked through it “It’s an apology letter. Addressed to me.”
Spike already opened one and read through it. “Huh, this is an apology letter to Twilight too.”
“They are apology letters,” said Starlight as she and the others were quickly going through them. “Huh, they’re apologizing for treating you and your friends badly.”
Beau flexed an eyebrow as he looked through the one letter as he said “And this one place wishes to apologize to her by letting her buy ten books and get twenty free.”
Within a split second, Twilight grabbed the letter out of his hands and quickly placed it in her shirt pocket, much to his surprised and looked at her with a flexed eyebrow, as well as a smirk.
“Wow, the talk you had with them really worked.” said Shining Armour as he was impressed.
“Never underestimate a human when it comes to good speeches.” said Emily as she puffed out her chest in pride.
‘still,” said Beau as he leaned backwards ‘really wished things could’ve gone different.”
“Oh, hold up.” said Shining Armour as he looked at one letter. “Wow, Pinkie works fast.”
He showed them the letter as he said “Pinkie had just sent out birthday invitations of Beau’s birthday tomorrow.”
“You know back home I wasn’t all that much interested in my birthday and all,” said Beau “But ever since I had my first birthday here in Equestria, hosted by Pinkie Pie, I really enjoyed it. Now I’m really looking forward to it.”
“I wonder what she has in mind?” asked Starlight.
“Oh wait,” said Spike as he pointed at the letter “Looks like Cheese Sandwich is gonna help out too.”
“Well why not,” said Emily “From what my sister in law told me, she and Cheese ended up hosting a super great party for Rainbow Dash.”
“I’d better brace myself.” said Beau “We all know that Pinkie can be a bit uh…unpredictable.”
“I’m sure it won’t be that bad Beau.” said Twilight with her reassuring smile.
“Eh, don’t be so sure.”
They then suddenly heard a load roar outside. Everyone in the room went to the window and looked outside. And to their shock, a giant Octopus rampaged the town as everypony was running away screaming. Twilight and the others slowly looked at Beau with flexed eyebrows, within him defending himself.
“Okay, I was just kidding about the whole octopus thing.” said Beau.
“We are having a discussion about jinxing things.” said Twilight as she flew out to deal with it as he friends were on the way.
“I didn’t jinx it, I only said it because I love you!! And…” Beau instantly blushed as he shouted “And I think you’re the most beautiful, awesome and sexiest pony I ever met since the day I met you!!!”
As Spike, Emily, Starlight, Shining Armour and Cadance started at him surprised, Beau said “What?”
And within an instant, there was a loud explosion, revealing a heart shape in the horizon, whilst the Octopus was disoriented. Beau then sighed as he said ‘she’s so cute when she gets flustered like that.”
The next day
On the early morning, Beau and Twilight were fast asleep on the bed, with her very exhausted after the Octopus battle. Beau slowly faced in the other direction whilst he mumbled “Hmm, banana pancakes” for some reason. He slowly opened his eyes as if he was feeling a presence. For that very presence, was a certain poofy haired pink Earth Pony, who was now nose to nose with him, with her widest grin.
‘morning sunshine.” said Pinkie in a normal tone.
Beau blinked once. He blinked twice. And then…
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAASAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!”
His scream was so loud whilst going backwards, Twilight immediately jumped up out of fright and fell down the bed as she fell on top of Beau. The two of them groaned a bit as Pinkie said “Happy birthday Beau!!”
“Pinkie!!!” shouted Twilight as she immediately got up and scolded the party planner. “You could’ve waked Moonlight!!”
“Oh, no worries silly filly,” said Pinkie as she got up ‘she already woke up and opened the front door for me.”
Beau got up as he was a bit frazzled, but also was surprised by what Pinkie said. “Wait, Moonlight opened the front door for you?”
‘sure did,” said Pinkie whilst he pointed at her “After she put on a clean diaper and to get some milk.”
They saw Moonlight wearing a fresh new diaper and drinking her milk. When she was done, she led out a loud burp like a cartoon character, then giggled as she blushed whilst feeling embarrassed.
“Wow,” said Beau “Looks like her genius is already kicking in.”
Within a split second, Pinkie instantly brought Beau his favorite cake and presented it to him, along with a complete breakfast. “I even took the liberty of making breakfast for the birthday man and his special mare.”
“Oh, uh, thanks Pinkie.” said Beau as he and Twilight got up.
“No problem.” popped another pony, who appeared to be none other than Cheese Sandwich, causing Twilight to yelp and jump into her husband’s arms as he caught her “We wouldn’t want the birthday of the first human in Equestria to be ruined now, would we?”
Cheese Sandwich jumped up and landed next to Pinkie Pie, whilst Cheese said ‘so you rest up and get ready for the greatest party of your lives.”
“Because this is going to be the best party, ever!!” shouted Pinkie as she got excited, allowing the party planners to instantly zip out of the room to get the party ready.
Twilight sighed before she said “I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it.”
Twilight then noticed that Beau was still holding her in his arms, as well as him smiling. “What?” said Twilight as she looked at Beau with a flexed eyebrow.
“I haven’t carried you since the day we got married.” said Beau whilst he carried her over to the tray, allowing him to sit down whilst Twilight sat down on his lap. “And I love to do that every now and then as I hold the best wife in the world.”
“Awww.” said Twilight before she nuzzled her husband. She then used her horn to levitated two coffees over to them after she gave him a kiss on the lips. She then accepted the cup, as did Beau.
“Happy birthday Beau.” said Twilight.
‘thanks Twi.” said Beau.
The two then gently clashed their cups together and drank them together.
Later the day, everyone that helped defend the Mane 6 had gathered at the center of Ponyville. Cheese Sandwich and Pinkie Pie really put out all of the stops to make the greatest party ever. Everyone was having fun and having the best party. But the one that was having the best time, were the Mane 6 and their husbands, along with Spike, Emily, Starlight and Sunburst, were at the center. They were laughing, dancing, having fun, and were having the best time. Beau began to love his birthday because Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich can make the best parties. The Mane 6 never felt so lucky in the world, for after the hardships they went through, their husbands defended them, and they know that their future will be better, because they have their best husbands to be with them till the end of their days.
