Spider-Man:Edge Of Magic
Chapter 6
Previous ChapterNext ChapterFluttershy, I'd like to introduce you to Twilight Sparkle, an exchange student" Peter commented as Fluttershy awkwardly waved with a raised hand.
"Nice to meet you, Fluttershy," he said while observing the girl's shy attitude, no doubt, she reminded her friend of her dimension. "Well, now that we know each other, uh, could you tell me who you gave the crown to? a? have you found? "
"I-I gave it to director Celestia" she commented while regaining eye contact with both of them "T-this morning, I was handing out flyers for the animal shelter like every Wednesday, I needed helpers, though it seems not many are interested in animals "Said the last one sadly while a couple of tears fell from her eyes, which Peter noticed
"I'm sorry Fluttershy, but I swear I'll help you, you'll see that many people will want to help you" he commented with a big smile from ear to ear, something that cheered Fluttershy up a bit, this action caused Twilight to smile, there was no doubt, Peter was a great guy
"Th-thank you Pete" she commented returning a smile "Oh yeah, a few moments later, the crown hit my head, I didn't know where it came from, but I thought I'd better give it back to the principal."
"And by any chance, didn't a strange black spot come accompanying the crown?" Twilight now asked
"Not that I remember, the crown came out very clean when I got here" as Fluttershy finished speaking, a bell began to ring, starting another class "Oh no, classes will start in a moment !!! We must go Peter!"
"Go ahead, I'll catch up with you in a moment" commented Peter, Fluttershy hesitated whether to leave him, but decided to trust him, and left waving goodbye to both of them with a raised hand "Well Twilight, I'm already in trouble for being late and missing a class, so I'd better go, you should go to Principal Celestia's office and investigate, I'll be with you at break time
"But where is Principal Celestia's office?
"Third door on your left, you'll identify it immediately, I'm leaving" commented Peter as he ran into his living room "I'll see you in the cafeteria!!!"
On her way out, Twilight stood for a few moments, until Spike came out of his backpack snapping her out of her thoughts.
"I have to admit, Twilight, that boy has a big heart" He began to speak as Twilight continued to look in the direction Peter was heading "Hey, we should go"
"Ah! You're right" Twilight commented as she shook her head slightly and headed where Peter indicated.
Peter arrived at his classroom along with Fluttershy, she entered first followed by Peter, he upon entering, sat down along with his friend Trixie
"Hey, hi, did I miss anything?" asked the chestnut boy putting his backpack on the floor.
"Not much" she replied "He's just starting Math, so you're just in time."
"Great, ugh, I had a few hiccups getting here."
"Your "mishaps" involved an armed bank robbery?"
"Yep, partly, but, other than that..." Peter moved a little closer to Trixie to keep anyone from overhearing what he was going to say "A girl came out of the school statue, just as I was coming over here, and as if that wasn't strange enough, her dog started talking."
"Whoa...are you sure what you saw wasn't thanks to a bump on the head?
"Nope, this is real, Fluttershy already met the girl. From what she told me, she was coming from another dimension to retrieve her magical crown that was stolen. As if that wasn't enough trouble, the crown was stolen by a slimy black mass."
"Black slimy mass...Oh no.... Trixie warned you about this" commented Trixie as she started to get a little worried.
"I know, that's why I'll have to help her get that crown back, I don't want to risk Venom coming back, I'll be all recess and a few classes later so I can find her, so I won't be able to be with you."
"Don't worry, I had something to do anyway, I asked Rarity to help me with some clothes, so I wasn't going to be able to be with you either"
Before he could continue talking, the math teacher had walked through the door of the room "I'll tell you the rest later" said Peter getting a nod from Trixie
"Autumn Ball Princess? That's the plan?" asked Peter along with Twilight choosing some food, recess was here so it was a good time to rest and eat something "I don't know.... Why didn't you tell him the crown was yours?"
"I-I wasn't a good choice, I doubt the headmistress would have believed that I came from another world, and I'm one of the princesses of this place, something like that doesn't sound so common around here..." She said taking a plate of salad, Peter started to walk towards a table that
"You're right, we have weird stuff, yes, but not of that magnitude" Peter said sitting down, as he began to eat some of his hamburger "In that case, you should prepare yourself if you plan on doing that do that, you'll have to win. Sunset Shimmer, she, has been the princess for most of the time, and I doubt she'll make it easy on you."
"H-hello guys" commented Fluttershy as she arrived, "Can I... sit with you? I don't like to be alone, not since I stopped talking to the girls."
"Sure Fluttershy, more means better for us" when she said that, Fluttershy smiled and sat down next to Peter leaving her plate of food on the table "What was I saying? O yes, you'll have to get ready if you want to be this year's princess "
"Princess this year?!?!!? Twilight is running to be a princess!?!!!" Exclaimed the surprised redhead, receiving a nod from both youngsters "Oh, that's a b-bad idea, if Sunset Shimmer finds out, she'll do everything she can to make your life miserable, a- besides, you have to convince the whole school, with that you also have to convince jocks, fashionistas, playwrights, ecologists, the technologists and even rockers "
"Why all the Ponies..." when he said that, Peter interrupted by coughing a little, making Twilight reconsider what he said "Uh, I mean.... Why .... Everyone, is separated like this?"
"They're ways of living together with someone similar to you, it's a good way to make friends in these places" Peter replied sipping some juice
"B-but one thing they all have in common..." Fluttershy continued now "is that we know that Sunset Shimmer will rule until we graduate."
"Not if I avoid it" Twilight said determined as she took a bite of her apple, using only her mouth, this was observed by both youngsters, which caused her to now take her apple in her hand, and blush at the action "S -So, where do I find the head of the organizing committee? l- headmistress Celestia told me to go to her if I wanted to run "
"Yes... if you want I can take you to her, I have an hour free after all, besides, it's almost time to leave too and I don't have much to do" said Peter finishing eating his lunch "She must be in the gym, we should get there fast "
"Wow, Pinkie is showing off this year" said Peter seeing how the gym was decorated with balloons all around and decorative ribbons.
"Wait, is Pinkie Pie here?" the girl asked curious upon hearing the boy's comment.
"Oh yeah, actually, she's the head of this committee. Wait, you know her?" now Peter asked when he heard what Twilight said.
"Oh yeah, , she's my friend where I come from, she basically organizes parties for all the ponies" he replied as he remembered the element of joy.
"Cool, that means...there are alternate versions of all of us, come to think of it, isn't there someone in your world named Peter Parker? Or" Peter Pony Parker "maybe?" he asked a little. excited with derision to know about the existence of alternate worlds, well, that was nothing new to him
"No... not that I recall"
"Look out below!!!" Someone else shouted interrupting the former mare, when they both looked up, they noticed how ribbons started to fall in their direction, before they could do anything, both young men got tangled with colorful ribbons, after that accident, they both managed to see a pink haired girl, who was blowing up balloons, she was the Pinkie Pie of that universe, when she saw both boys, she only managed to recognize the brown haired boy "Pete ! !!!" she shrieked as she jumped up, at the same time she approached and hugged Peter, causing him to lose his balance a little "What a surprise to see you here !!!"
"Hey Pinky! Good to see you too, I came here to help Twilight, she's new here, and wanted to apply to be this year's Fall Princess" the boy said, breaking away from the hug gently
Pinkie looked at Twilight for a moment, as she awkwardly waved her hand "Well, it took her time to do it, the ball is in two days, but never mind, I'll let it go this time." She pulled a piece of paper out of her hair and a pen, this action seemed strange to both young people "Just sign here, and with that you will be nominated to be the princess this year."
Twilight took the two things, she hesitated how to write on the sheet, for her writing with her fingers was something new, she gave up, she started to put her name on the sheet with difficulty , once she put her name, she gave the sheet back to Pinkie, who almost dropped it when she saw the way it was written
"Wow, you really have bad handwriting" she said without taking her eyes off that sheet.
"Hey, everyone has bad days Pinkie, don't blame her" Peter, saying that, heard someone come in the front door.
"Did someone order apple juice?" the newcomer asked. It was no one but a blonde haired girl, carrying a box of apple juice, Peter when he saw this was made of steel to help her carry the stuff "Thanks Sugar Cube, Oh, Peter!!!, I didn't see you.
"Heh, don't worry Applejack, with so many boxes interrupting your view, it was pretty obvious you couldn't see me" he said taking a couple of boxes in his arms
"I heard what you did with Sunset, and boy, aren't you brave!" Said the blonde leaving the box on the table as she grabbed a bottle of juice.
"Hey, I did what anyone could have done" Peter commented without further ado as he placed the remaining boxes on the table.
"You shouldn't put yourself down like that, believe me, no one could have done it, not even the" Big "and lying Rainbow" he said this last with a bit of anger outlined in his voice finishing drinking his juice. Twilight had approached the two, and immediately recognized the blonde girl.
"A-applejack?" she asked hesitantly when she saw the girl.
"Huh? How do you know me?" when the blonde said that, Twilight got a little nervous and didn't know what to answer.
"Well, I just mentioned your name, I'm sure she heard it. This is Twilight, she's new around here" Peter replied trying to help the girl, fortunately, Applejack downplayed it, the young man turned to look at the other girl and winked towards her, causing Twilight to blush a little. "Well, I guess now that you're participating for princess, we should..."
"She's running for princess?" she shouted receiving a nod from both of them "Oh dude, you should be careful with that, Sunset Shimmer will also participate for that, she'll try to keep you from winning at all costs."
"I trust her, I know she will beat Sunset, trust me, she has a lot of potential to be a princess" he said determined as Twilight felt more confident "Well, we're off, hope to see you girls soon !!!" Peter said goodbye as he left the gym, along with Twilight, who waved goodbye, as he left the gym, the dismissal bell began to ring, ending the school day "Who knew, well Twilight, I have to go, my aunt is waiting for me. where will you stay? I could take you to my house, but we're not the only ones living there."
"I'll, um, I'll stay here at the school, I'll try to hide, I also have to figure out how to get everyone to vote for me to be princess" commented the girl as they both arrived at the school exit.
"Alright, uh, if anything happens..." he said as he pulled out a piece of paper and a pen from his pockets, writing some numbers on the sheet, "You can call me at this number, use the school phone, it's in the library "Peter finished as he started walking out of the school leaving Twilight "See you tomorrow "
"Yeah, thanks Peter" when she said that, she stopped waving goodbye and left in the direction of the school, but little did she know that Sunset Shimmer was watching her from a distance.
"If she's here, it means a lot of magic came with her, Ha, Osborn will get whatever he wants" she commented as her eyes darkened for a few moments, then, she started to follow Twilight.
