Chapter 17: The Legends Return

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The morning sun soon begins to rise on a Sunday morning, with Silverbolt still fast asleep under the covers. He moaned in his sleep and slowly woke up. When he looked to his left, he saw that Sunset wasn’t beside him. But when he looked below, he saw that she was resting on the bed, whilst he could still see her posterior. And from the looks of it, she was reading a book whilst going over a few pages as she playfully moved her legs a bit. Silverbolt couldn’t help but smile at the sight, causing him to slowly sit up and gently rubbed his hand against her posterior, making her gasp slightly as she was surprised to feel the touch. But when she looked to her right, she saw Silverbolt next to her, to which she couldn’t help but smile and plant her lips on his.

“Morning handsome.” Said Sunset.

“Morning to you too, my little Sunset.” Teased Silverbolt as he snuggled against her, which made her giggle at the same time.

The two of them held one another close, with Sunset saying “In all my time being in this world, I never thought it would get any better.”

“How so?”

“I wasn’t a nice person back then when I was Celestia’s student.” Said Sunset as she was a little saddened by the memory, “I was cruel, drove everyone apart, and was drunk on power.”

She then smiled and said “But after I helped out at the Battle of the Bands, everyone was then willing to give me a chance. I helped those in need, I saved the world with my friends, I gained a life I never thought I would…”

She then looked at him and said “And here I am, living in a place that would be impossible for me to stay, someone that I fell in love with. Who took me in and showed me kindness and generosity that I never thought anyone minus my friends would do.”

“I think I’m the one that’s lucky.” Said Silverbolt, “I lived for a long time, helping those in need, trying to do the right thing. But over the years I dated every now and then. Sure, all of them were okay, but none of them clicked with that special spark.”

He held her close and said “But the moment I met you, I felt that spark, something I’ve never felt in a long time. Like…I don’t know…like I…”

“Found my soulmate.” Said the both of them at the same time, making them look at one another, then smiled as they couldn’t take their eyes off of one another. The two of them moved closer and placed their lips against one another, making out with compassion. However, it was suddenly interrupted when they heard the sound of a doorbell, causing the two of them to look up.

“Who’s that?” asked Sunset.

Silverbolt used his magic to create a magic screen, allowing him to see what’s going on outside. The moment it showed, to his surprise, he saw plenty of people with clothing that would look like chefs, bartenders and so on.

“Oh, shoot!! I completely forgot!!” exclaimed Silverbolt as he got up.

“What, what is it?!” said Sunset as she also got up.

The two of them quickly got dressed and made their way to the front door. Once the door opened, Silverbolt cleared his throat and asked “Oh, hello there.”

“Silverbolt, I take it?” asked the chef.

“That’s right.”

“We’re here for the preparations that a friend of yours said to prepare.” Said the chef, “I believe his name was…”

“Eventer!!” said Silverbolt with a smile, “Oh my gosh, I thought he wouldn’t come through!!”

“He said he was able to find an opening, and he appreciates the advance payment you gave.” Said the chef. “Where shall we set up?”

“Oh, out at the back.” Said Silverbolt, “There’s plenty of space back there for the bartenders and the Barbeque group too. And if there’s any last-minute changes, the kitchen is over there, so it should be easier.”

“That would be, thank you very much.” Said the chef as everyone entered the house.

Sunset was a little surprised by the people coming in and looked at Silverbolt whilst asking “So who are they?”

“Oh, see, remember when I told some folks about having a barbecue on Sunday?” asked Silverbolt.

“That’s right.” Said Sunset, wondering where he was going with this.

“Well, I invited half of my friends and associates in Canterlot City, I even invited everyone from CHS and CPA.” Said Silverbolt, “In other words I’m planning a big Barbecue party for them.”

“Really?” said Sunset surprised.

“Well, I did promise to host a Barbecue.” Said Silverbolt. “Plus…it would be good to connect with my friends again. Both old and new.”

Sunset couldn’t help but smile and said “You know what, we should. But first thing’s first. A shower, some breakfast and then maybe something to do whilst we wait for the big Barbecue event?”

“I can dig it.” Said Silverbolt. “Thankfully I was able to ask them if they could send some breakfast along the way too. I’ll wait for you whilst you…”

Sunset suddenly held him close, with her half-lidded smile. “When I said, shower…” said Sunset before she slowly moved to his ear and whispered “I meant for the two of us to be together. Maybe a massage at my posterior and my breasts.”

Silverbolt couldn’t help but blush by that suggestion, with him smirking and said “I’ll meet you there.”

The two of them went for the bathroom for their shower time.

********************************************************************************************

After they were done with their shower, the two of them were near the front door, before Silverbolt suddenly pinned Sunset against the wall and said “You still have all those moves.”

Sunset couldn’t help but smirk and said “corny much?”

Silverbolt then placed his lips against hers, causing her to moan from his kiss as she slowly embraces him. She then pulled him close, which prompt him to hold her posterior again, which made her moan even deeper.

They suddenly heard the sound of someone’s throat being cleared, making them stop and look.

To their surprise, it was the rest of the Rainbooms, their boyfriends and their counterparts. Some were surprised and blushed, the rest either had a smirk and amused look on their faces.

“I see you lot got busy.” Said Fast Track with a smirk.

The two of them couldn’t help but chuckle at that, with Silverbolt saying “Can we help it if we find out that we’re soulmates?”

“Really?” asked pony Fluttershy.

“We…bonded a bit whilst we were at the beach.” Said Sunset.

“Oh…did you?” said Fast Track teasingly, causing both Silverbolt and Sunset to blush in embarrassment.

Sunset then noticed that someone was missing. “Hey, where’s Princess Twilight?”

“Oh, she’s still busy spending time with Flash since last night.” Said Pinkie Pie.

***************************************************************************************

Last Night

From Flash Sentry’s house, Flash and Princess Twilight was on his bed, with Twilight at the bottom and Flash on top, with Flash continuing to thrust within the princess as she moaned and hugged him close at the same time whilst he was slowly playing with her breasts as she couldn’t take the mountain of pleasure that had been delivered to her. He thrusted in her harder and harder, making her moan harder, before the two of them fell off of the bed to continue with their make out session.

****************************************************************************************

“She said she’ll call us when we need to pick her up.” Said Pinkie Pie.

Silverbolt and Sunset looked at one another and smirked, knowing full well what it meant. Then the Rainbooms noticed that there were many people walking by, which confused the latter.

“What’s with all the people?” asked Twilight.

“Oh, see, ever since I came back I wanted to do the one thing I did for many years before I moved.” Said Silverbolt.

“Like what Sugarcube?” asked Applejack.

“Having a Barbecue on Sundays.” Said Silverbolt, which surprised everyone, “And a while back I already had sent the invitations to all of my friends all over the city, both old and new. Figured that everyone can come together, be themselves and also have fun along the way. And my favorite part, where everyone can enjoy good food with a smile on their faces. As well as the dessert and music entertainment along the way, especially where anyone can perform any song they want to.”

The girls were surprised by this of what he was planning, especially when they saw all of the ingredients being brought in.

“Trust me, I paid everything extra up front.” Said Silverbolt.

“You’d really do that?” asked Fluttershy in surprise.

“Of course, I do, I like to Barbecue for all my friends.” Said Silverbolt, “It’s sort of a tradition I came up with a long time ago.”

“Aw, that’s a sweet tradition.” Said Fluttershy.

“I already sent the numbers on everyone’s phones thanks to Celestia,” said Silverbolt. “In fact,…”

He pointed at their phones, causing them to sound off, surprising the girls. They took out their phones and saw the message being displayed for them, which surprised them.

“Any who…” said Silverbolt, before his phone started to ring. He picked it up and spoke through it. “Hello? Oh, hey Princess Twilight. Yeah? Yeah? Yeah? Everything went well? Yeah? Yeah he’s gonna be here for the Barbecue. Yeah, I invited him and everyone. Yeah…yeah, okay I’ll teleport you here, just hang in there.”

He hung up the phone and said “Be right back.”

He teleported away to Princess Twilight’s location. Within a few moments, he was able to teleport back with the Princess in tow whilst she dusted herself.

“So…how was it?” asked Rainbow teasingly, which Applejack jabbed her with her elbow.

Princess Twilight blushed as she giggled. “It was…really good.”

She then silently whispered to Silverbolt, “Although you’re a lot more amazing on the bedside.”

Silverbolt couldn’t help but blush by that statement, which made him clear her throat. Anyway, seeing that we all had breakfast and the barbecue isn’t until 1PM, I figured I could help the Rainbooms to make the one thing they’ve never done before.”

The Rainbooms looked at him curiously, with Rainbow blinking in surprise and figuring out what he was talking about.

“Aw, yeah!!” cheered Rainbow, “We get to make our first album!!”

“That you do.” Said Silverbolt, “And if we hurry, we’ll be able to make your first album before the Barbecue begins.”

“Oh boy, ah’m more excitin than a bucking bull on the 4th of July.” Said Applejack.

“So, when can we get started?” asked Rarity.

“Right this way.” Said Silverbolt as he guided them down.

****************************************************************************************************

When they got there, the Mane 6, dragon Spike and the guys were surprised to see the studio and what it looked like. With that said and done, they began to make their first album.

Fluttershy and Rainbow gave Silverbolt the songs that they wrote, with him looking it over, and thought hard, then he explained to them of all the songs they had sung since they formed.

Songs like “Better together”, “Shake your Tail”, “Awesome as we want to be…”

“Hey, what gives?” asked Rainbow.

“Well, when you first wrote that song, you made it sound like it was all about you and not about your friends.” Said Silverbolt, “Which is what got you into that little argument spasm in the first place, remember?”

Rainbow winced at that and said “Oh, yeah.”, but then she smiled and said “You know what, I can live with that.”

They then continued with their other songs, like the one they sang during the Battle of the Bands, then during their times at the Friendship Games, Camp Everfree, Dance Magic and so on and so forth. Pretty soon, they made a good bundle of songs together, even newer ones that they recently wrote and made.

Silverbolt then asked each of them to go into the studio in order to record them. The Mane 6, the two Spikes and the boyfriends all watched Silverbolt worked his magic as he helped record them.

First he began to record Pinkie Pie as she began to play her drums whilst Silverbolt helped with her timing as he showed his hand gestures, which she surprisingly caught on as she was able to time it perfectly. What was even more surprising was that she was able to play all of the drum beats from each different song.

Afterwards it was Sunset and Rainbow’s turn. Silverbolt then signaled the timing they should make whilst playing on their guitars, whilst also helping them with their timing, with him reminding them of feeling the beat with their hearts before they played. Before they knew it, they were playing perfectly with the beats.

After that, he placed Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rarity together too as he helped time their bass and their keytar in just the right timing, and soon, everything was complete.

And finally, the songs. He instructed the girls to be together in the booth as he helped time their singing. Soon enough, the girls were synced with one another. Once they were done, they saw how Silverbolt was being able to put them together perfectly without any troubles or issues.

And right around half past eleven, Silverbolt held a couple of records and cd’s and placed them all on the tables. He turned to the girls with a grin on his face.

“Ladies,” said Silverbolt as he presented them what they desired. “I present to you, your very first albums.”

The girls cheered and held them close with big smiles on their faces.

“This is so awesome!!” said Rainbow as each held their own albums.

“Glad to see you girls have something to remember one another by.” Said Silverbolt.

“That’s so true.” Said Sunset. “Although…”

“What?” said the others.

Sunset sighed and said “Before the whole-time thing started, I was all set to go, but I didn’t want to leave any of you girls behind. And Silverbolt did the right thing for all of us. I don’t want to go to a college without you girls with me.”

The rest of the Rainbooms were touched by this and hugged her.

“Couldn’t have said it better ourselves, Sugarcube.” Said Applejack.

“Actually,” said Silverbolt, gaining the girls’ attention when they broke their hugs, “I think I may be able to help you with that.”

“You can?” said the confused Rainbooms.

“How much do you lot know, Harmony U?” asked Silverbolt, which surprised the girls.

“Harmony U?!” said Sunset Shimmer in surprise, “That’s like the best College in the country!!”

“What’s so special about that place?” asked pony Applejack.

“Harmony University, like Sunset said, is one of the best schools in the country.” Said Rarity.

“Apparently they teach everything there.” Said Applejack. “Farming, business, athletics, bakery, animal caretaking, fashion, the works.”

“They even have some of the best extreme sports there.” Said Rainbow. “All for the fun of the game of course. With the rule of no cheating or competitiveness. The last thing they want is another incident.”

“Never figured I’d hear you say that Dashie.” Said Pinkie.

“Guess y’all are growing up a bit after all.” Teased Applejack, followed by the others giggling.

“Yeah, yeah, yuck it up.” Said Rainbow, but couldn’t help but smirk at the same time.

“How do you know so much about it?” asked Fluttershy.

“I founded it and built it.” Said Silverbolt, much to everyone’s surprise.

“You built that place?!” asked Twilight in surprise.

“After World War 2, I went back home and talked to the President.” Said Silverbolt, “Seeing that I was the one who helped General George S Patton with his campaign, even helped them find the German forces carrying one of the last bridges to cross the Rhine, he wanted to personally thank me. I asked him if I could open a college or university. He was surprised at first, but nonetheless, he granted it to me. Thanks to the funding I got from the investments I made at the other businesses; I was able to build it. And I made sure that it’s a school with no rivalry whatsoever, to show that we’re all friends no matter where we are. Harvard, Oxford, and Yale may have been around a long time, but none of them could hold a candle to the place I made.”

“Sounds lovely.” Said Rarity.

“But, why did you mention it to us?” asked Applejack.

“Well…”

Silverbolt slowly pulled out seven different envelopes, each of them having the Rainbooms’ names on it. Much to their confusion. However, Twilight instantly figured out what they were.

“Are those…acceptance letters?”

The girls were all equally surprised by this, with Silverbolt saying “I know each of you have different schools in mind, but the one thing I hate most, is seeing good friends being split apart. That’s why I had everything arranged. Acceptance letters, fully paid education.”

He pulled out a tablet and showed them some photos whilst saying “I even have a dorm fully built and ready for you girls. And you remember the second Commander?”

“Yeah?” said a confused Rainbow.

Silverbolt pulled out the keys to it and tossed it to them, making Applejack catch it, whilst the girls looked at it in shock, then to Silverbolt, to which he smiled as he said “Consider it yours. A gift from me, as thanks for keeping the world safe.”

The excitement slowly built up in them, with Rainbow saying “This is the best gift ever!!”

The Rainbooms were very excited as they were so happy. They all hugged one another, then ended up hugging Silverbolt as their way of saying thanks.

“This is amazing.” Said Pinkie, “We all get to be together in one of the best colleges in the country!!”

“So true.” Said Fluttershy as she was also happy.

“Oh,” said Rarity as she let Silverbolt go, with the others confused by this. “That would mean we’d have to leave many of our friends behind.”

The others were surprised by this and also had the same feeling.

“Uh, yeah, about that.” Said Silverbolt as he rubbed the back of his head, gaining their attention. “Both your friends at both Crystal Prep and Canterlot High…I may have also mailed acceptance letters to them too.”

Now everyone was greatly shocked by this.

“Are you sure about this?” asked Twilight in concern.

“What was it that Tej from Fast and Furious always said…?” said Silverbolt.

“Now what’s the point of having money in the bank if you don’t spend any of it?” said the Rainbooms and Silverbolt at the same time, causing many of them to laugh at that.

“Trust me,” said Silverbolt, “I know how strong the bond of friendship is, and I figured that everyone deserves to be together, to start anew, to help continue to build that bond. And what better way to do that, is by going at it, together.”

They couldn’t believe this amount of generosity he was giving them, even the kindness.

“Silverbolt, we…” said Rarity.

“We don’t know what to say.” Said Applejack.

“Just promise me one thing.” Said Silverbolt, “That all of you will continue to do great things at the best of your abilities.”

Everyone came together and hugged him tightly. “We promise.”

They broke the hug, with Silverbolt looking at Princess Twilight and her friends. “Don’t think I haven’t forgotten about all of you.”

The Mane 6 and Spike were curious of what he had in mind. Silverbolt gave them a map and said “In this location, all of you will find a secret castle that I masked there for a long time. If you lot ever need a break or a vacation. Consider this as the perfect getaway.”

The Mane 6 and Spike were surprised by this, with Princess Twilight asking “Are you sure?”

“Positive.” Said Silverbolt. “It’s located in Ornithia, kingdom of the Harpies. I think all of you will find that all of you have more in common than all of you have ever realized.”

“Oh, this is so exciting!!” exclaimed pony Pinkie Pie as she held onto the map.

“Now we have a relaxing pad to go to.” Said pony Rainbow Dash.

Silverbolt looked at his watch and said “Oh, it’s almost noon. I’d better be at the front gates. You girls wanna join me?”

“Sure thing.” Said Sunset.

Everyone soon exited the room. However, Sunset suddenly closed the door and pins Silverbolt against the wall.

“Whoa.” Said Silverbolt when he looked at Sunset, who had a smile and a lustful look on her face. “Sunset?”

Sunset suddenly held his hand and slowly moved it below her womanhood. But when Silverbolt felt it, it felt hot and wet, which could indicate one thing.

“Wait, are you in…?” said Silverbolt before Sunset placed her hand over his mouth.

“So…” said Sunset, “We know what a pony feels when they go into heat. Do you…wanna find out as a…”

He suddenly kisses her on the mouth, which surprised her, but also melted into it at the same time, whilst Silverbolt slowly removed her panties and grasped onto her butt, which sent shivers down her spice, but in an enjoyable way, with Sunset untying his pants, causing both it and his underwear to fall off. They then broke the kiss and smiled at one another.

“Then by all means.” Said Silverbolt as he placed his manhood in her womanhood, which made her gasp in excitement. “Let’s get this show on the road.”

He moved his thrusts whilst he held her, with Sunset wrapping her legs around his waist, making both of them enjoying their hot bothered time. Silverbolt held her in the air and continued with his thrusts, with Sunset leaning her head backwards as she was enjoying the feeling inside of her whilst rolling her eyes backwards at the same time, for she continued the bliss that was given to her. Silverbolt could feel her breasts against his chest, even after the shirts they were wearing. Silverbolt couldn’t help himself but place his hand underneath her shirt and groped onto her right breast, making her moan through their compassionate kissing. Sunset continued to hold onto him tightly not wanting to let him go, now whilst she was still enjoying this feeling.

Silverbolt ended up turning Sunset around and continued his thrusts from behind her, to which she enjoyed very much whilst Silverbolt ended up groping her breasts whilst she was enjoying it at the same time. However, her climax began to kick in.

“Silverbolt…” said Sunset as she could barely think, “I…I think I’m about to…!!”

“M-me too!!” shouted Silverbolt, “Brace for impact!!”

The two of them had climaxed loudly at the same time whilst they moaned at the same time.

Silverbolt, followed by Sunset, all sat down at a nearby bench at the same time, with Sunset on top of him as his manhood was still inside of her womanhood. The two of them slowly panted and tried to recollect their breaths, for that was something for the books.

“How is it…you’re so good?” asked Silverbolt.

“I have my moments.” Said Sunset as she had managed to get her breathing under control.

The two of them held one another close, with Silverbolt saying “We should probably head back.”

“Yeah,” said Sunset in her blissed state, “But first…let’s get cleaned up first.”

The two of them were able to stand up and get dressed, with Sunset’s legs feeling very wobbly, with Silverbolt decided to carry her bridal style, which surprised her.

“You enjoy this?” asked Silverbolt.

“Most definitely.” Replied a smirking Sunset.

The two of them kissed one another whilst Silverbolt had walked out of the door whilst he carried Sunset at the same time.

***************************************************************************************************

Soon enough, Silverbolt, Sunset, the Rainbooms and their boyfriends, the Mane 6 and the two Spikes, were waiting for them at the gates.

“You know, besides you girls,” said Silverbolt, “I never hosted an event as big as this one before.”

“I’m sure it will be fine.” Said Sunset, “Besides, it’s all of our friends at CHS and CPA we’re talking about.”

“Actually…the entire schools from both schools.” Said Silverbolt, which surprised the girls.

“Wow, that’s a lot on the list.” Said Pinkie Pie.

“Although…” said Fluttershy in worry, “Won’t they find out that you’re actually immortal?”

“I think it’s high time that I stopped keeping that kind of secret from everyone.” Said Silverbolt. “But I’m not gonna let them take advantage of me, not by a long shot.”

“Wait,” said Rainbow, “You told us your secret, do you know that we wouldn’t also do that?”

“I didn’t.” said Silverbolt before looking at them. “I took a leap of faith.”

The girls were surprised by this, especially their Equestrian Counterparts.

“Huh, that’s…” said Princess Twilight, until…

“Hey, Rainbows!!”

Pony Rainbow Dash instantly jumped into the bush whilst everyone else was surprised by this.

“Oh, no.” muttered Rainbow before everyone looked, for it was none other than Fluttershy’s annoying little brother, Zephyr Breeze.

“What are y’all doing here Zephyr?” said Applejack.

“Why, I’m here for the Sunday barbecue party, of course.” Said Zephyr.

“No one invited you Zephyr.” Said Sunset in annoyance.

“I invited myself.” Said Zephyr. “No way I’m missing a chance to spend some time with Rainbows.”

“You’re not welcome here Zephyr Breeze.” Said Rainbow Dash.

“Oh yeah, says who?” said Zephyr Breeze with a cocky grin.

“Says me.” Said Silverbolt as he stood near him.

“And…you are?” said Zephyr.

“Silverbolt.” Said the latter, “I’m a friend of your parents. And lately I heard that you caused a lot of trouble, loafing around, not giving a rats ass about what you’re doing here. Not to mention you have very poor hygiene and you don’t have an ounce of discipline on you.”

“And your point is?” said Zephyr.

Silverbolt then smirked and said “I happened to have arranged something with them.”

***************************************************************************************************

Silverbolt had visited the Shy parents and they caught up on old times, even with the parents talking about their kids, especially of how obnoxious Zephyr had become. Naturally he frowned at that, and offered a solution, the one place that could teach him discipline.

“Military School?” said Mr. Shy.

“That’s right,” said Silverbolt, “From what you told me, Zephyr acts like he doesn’t care about anything and that he pretends to be a man when he’s actually faking to be one. So, what better place to teach them discipline than Military school?”

“Oh, I’m not sure.” Said Mrs. Shy, feeling unsure.

Silverbolt smirked and pulled the two cards that some parents who wish to install discipline like to hear.

“I’ll gladly pay for the whole thing and you won’t be able to see him for five years.” Said Silverbolt.

“Oh, yes!! Anything to teach him manners and respect!!” said Mrs. Shy in excitement as she and her husband signed the contract.

************************************************************************************************

Everyone’s jaws dropped over what he had revealed, even Zephyr.

“Y-you’re joking, right?” said Zephyr very nervously.

When all of a sudden, a large truck came along and stopped near them. Six military soldiers walked out and walked over to Silverbolt with his arms behind his back. Silverbolt pointed his head towards the one behind him, which they looked at Zephyr Breeze.

“This the one?” asked the military officer.

Silverbolt smirked and showed the contract with Zephyr’s parents signatures on it, showing that they have agreed to it.

“He’s all yours, boys.” Said Silverbolt.

The soldiers nodded and walked over to Zephyr and grabbed him, whilst also dragging him away.

“Wait, let me go!!” said Zephyr in a panic.

“They’ve got full authorization Zephyr.” Said Silverbolt before looking to him and said “Welcome to the adult world Zephyr, time to put on your big boy panties and have a taste in what that’s like.”

They soon put him the van before closing it. Zephyr leaned his face against the van and said “Wait, don’t take me!! Rainbows!! Don’t let them take me!! Help me and show me that you love me!!”

They soon drove him away, with him soon out of sight. The girls all had their jaws dropped by what they were seeing. With Silverbolt looking at Fluttershy and saying “Oh, come on Fluttershy, you know I did the right thing here.”

“Uh…what just happened?” asked a confused Rainbow.

“Uh,” said Fast Track, “I think Silverbolt arranged Zephyr to go to military school and you won’t be able to see him for the next five years.”

Hearing that, Rainbow Dash was really stunned.

“I’m…free.” Said Rainbow, before a massive grin had arrived and shouted “I’m free!!!

She instantly gave Silverbolt a bear hug, which the latter winced as he nearly had his eyes popped out. “Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!” said Rainbow as she was really happy.

“Rainbow…” said Silverbolt as his face was slowly turning blue, “Can’t…breathe.”

Rainbow then suddenly kissed Silverbolt by the cheek and again hugged him and said “Thank you.”

“Uh, Rainbow.” Said Silverbolt, “You do realize that the two of us are taken, right?”

She then blinked and said “Oh yeah.”

She released Silverbolt from her grip whilst pony Rainbow Dash popped out and sighed in relief that the coast was cleared before she went to join the others.

“You know,” said Silverbolt after he got his breathing back, “I’m surprised he didn’t realize that there were two of you girls here.”

“Zephyr always did have a big ego.” Said Fast Track.

“Though not as big as Rainbow’s.” said Summer Breeze with a smirk.

“Hey!!!” exclaimed the two Rainbows, as if the two of them had just been insulted.

“Oh look, here comes everyone now!!” said Pinkie Pie as she pointed with excitement in the other direction.

Everyone looked and saw a handful of busses was coming towards their location, revealing to be everyone from CHS, CPA and the rest of their friends. He walked over to the first bus, revealing to be Celestia and Luna at the windows.

“Nice of you to drop by!!” said Silverbolt.

“We could not miss the invitation.” Said Vice-Principal Luna.

“Normally, none of us would want to do anything on a Sunday,” said Principle Celestia before she smiled, “But if it’s from you, we decided to make an acceptation.”

“So, what are we doing out here?” asked Flash as he and many of the students peaked out of the windows.

“Just drive on through here.” Said Silverbolt as he guided them whilst he opened the gate.

The busses soon drive through, with Silverbolt and the rest of the girls following. However, as the gate was partially delayed, a random limo came as if it spotted something, and was attempting to go through there.

**********************************************************************************************

Soon enough, the Rainbooms and the Mane 6 were in front of the house with Silverbolt, whilst the busses slowly began to stop. Soon, everyone from CHS, CPA, and all of Silverbolt’s friends, both young and old, all climbed out and soon enough, all of them were surprised to see the size of the house.

“Whoa.” Said Sandalwood. “Far out.”

“This place is huge.” Said Lyra.

“Did you girls hire this place out for the Barbecue?” asked Bonbon.

“Not exactly.” Said Silverbolt as he took a step forward. “What you see here. This uh…”

“What?” asked Octavia, with Vinyl removing her glasses and looking at him with a flexed eyebrow.

“This is his house.” Said Pinkie Pie.

Everyone looked at Silverbolt surprised as he shrugged his shoulders.

“Whoa, you’re loaded?” said Cherry Crash in a surprised tone.

“Your family really must be loaded.” Said one of the Crystal Prep students, who was one other than Indigo Zap.

“Uh, yeah about that.” Said Silverbolt. “I’ve got a ton of stuff to talk about.”

“Like what?” asked Sweetie Belle.

“My name’s not actually Bolt, it’s Silverbolt.” Said Silverbolt, “If you haven’t figured it out yet, I also came from the very same world Princess Twilight and Sunset Shimmer came from.”

“You’re from Equestria?” asked Lemon Zest.

“That I am.” Said Silverbolt, “And I’ve also been around since Canterlot High School was founded.”

Everyone, minus a few members of the group, were shocked to hear this.

“You’re over a hundred?!” said Derpy.

“Three hundred actually,” said Silverbolt, “I was born long before Equestria was founded. After I came here, that’s when I bumped into Penny’s grandmother…”

The elderly woman blushed as some looked at her surprised.

“She took me in whilst I was trying to find a living in this world. After that, I was able to build and invest in a few businesses, then I was able to have this house built in the late 50’s. But at that time, I was also trying to guard the portal between here and Equestria.”

“Hmph, well you did a lousy job.” Said Trixie.

“Trixie!!” scolded the Mane 6.

“No, she’s right, it was dumb of me.” Said Silverbolt, “But that’s why I’m back, to make things right. And as for all of your parents and teachers, I’ve known them for a long time and became friends with pretty much everyone there over the years.”

“Not that I’m complaining,” said Sour Sweet, “But why are we here?”

“Well, every now and then on a Sunday,” said Silverbolt, “I sometimes like to arrange a few barbecues and invite tons of folks over just so they could unwind, mingle and relax in order to have a great time.”

“And we appreciate the offer, Silverbolt.” Said Principle Celestia.

“And Cranky,” said Silverbolt as he pointed his finger at him, “Don’t even think about complaining about how the party shouldn’t be, not after what you did last time.”

The teachers and parents looked at Cranky sternly, remembering what he did, with the latter grumbling at the same time. “Plus, I know no one can say no to free food.”

“Huh, you kinda have a good point there.” Said Brawly Beats.

“It’s my way of saying hello, and to show my friends both old and new a good time.” Said Silverbolt.

They then heard the sound of a car horn honking. They saw a familiar looking limo parking nearby. When the person climbed out, it was none other than Filthy Rich, much to half the folks’ dismay. Silverbolt on the other hand, gripped his hands at the sight of that man.

“Filthy Rich?” said Cranky, “What are you doing here?”

“Oh, it’s quite obvious actually,” said Filthy, “I’m actually looking for a large plot of land to build my new resort, and when I heard of an abandoned mine here, I figured that I’d observe the land and see if it truly has potential.”

“No doubt bribed a few people about it.” Muttered Gloriosa.

However, Filthy noticed the large house, which surprised him.

“Who the heck built this?!” exclaimed Filthy.

“Who do you think?”

Filthy turned around and saw Silverbolt approaching, with him looking at him with a flexed eyebrow.

“And just, who are…”

Silverbolt snapped his fingers, causing him to make himself older, one that he knew Filthy would recognize. “Recognize me, now?”

“You?!” exclaimed Filthy Rich in shock as he instantly recognized him.

Silverbolt snapped his fingers again, turning him back to normal and said “I’ve lived in this world since Canterlot High was constructed, I also had this house, my house, built in the 50’s. Not to mention, what I’ve been hearing, I couldn’t be any more disappointed.”

“What are you…?”

However, Roland wasn’t in the mood of hearing his BS, causing him to stomp his foot so hard, a massive shockwave was made, causing everyone to be quiet and him looking at Filthy sternly.

“Don’t, even try to hide it.” Said Silverbolt, “I mean seriously, trying to turn Camp Everfree into an out-of-town Spa? No one in their right mind would want to waste gas money by going there!! That’s like, trying to turn Alcatraz Island into an outlet Mall!!

Everyone blinked at that statement, with Derpy saying “Uh, okay, even I know that’s dumb.”

“Besides,” said Silverbolt, “Canterlot City already has five Spas and last time I checked, you don’t even like the Spas.”

Filthy cleared his throat and tried to act calm whilst saying “I was merely…”

However, within a split second, Silverbolt kicked Filthy Rich below the belt extremely hard, making him grunt hard with his eyes nearly popping out, which shocked everyone around them. Filthy dropped onto his knees and groaned in pain.

“Speak when spoken to, Filthy.” Said Silverbolt, he leaned over and said “Don’t forget, I was the one who helped your grandfather start his business when he and Granny Smith worked together, remember, therefore, you owe me. I was the one who helped Gloriosa’s family build Camp Everfree, I was the one who helped them try to make it the best camp, even funded them. But when I heard that you wanted to tear the place down, I was furious.”

He then looked at Gloriosa, and said “And Seriously Daisy? Why the heck did you forget to call me? You know I’d never leave you guys hanging.”

Then he looked away whilst rolling his eyes, then back to her when he said “Your father always did say that you were a total ditz.”

Gloriosa chuckled sheepishly, but then looked down, blushing, and rubbing her arm in embarrassment.

Silverbolt then looked at Filthy, leaned forward and said “But that’s not the worst of it. I’ve been getting calls from my friends and business partners over what you’ve been doing.”

He then pulled out a list and read it out loud with his reading glasses.

“Trying to tear down Doctor Fauna’s animal shelter to build an office supply store?”

Fluttershy gasped and fainted, with Rainbow catching her.

“Trying to close down my friend Miss Premline’s business fashion business to build a laundry service.”

Rarity gasped and nearly fainted, with Applejack catching her.

“Trying to tear down Canterlot City’s soccer field and turn it into a parking lot? I mean why the heck would they park in the middle of nowhere.”

“You, what?!” said Rainbow angrily whilst startling Fluttershy to be awake.

“Attempting to bribe everyone to stop going to the Sweet café so that you could buy them out and own it?”

Pinkie and the Cakes gasped in shock of what he attempted to do.

“Trying to tear down the arcade so that you could replace it with a business office, or trying to turn the library into a glue factory.”

Twilight and Sunset widened their eyes in horror and shock, with Twilight instantly fainting over what he had revealed and Sunset’s face going red in anger. Silverbolt looked at her from the corner of his eyes and…he had to admit, her being angry was kind of hot.

He then stopped and said in a mocking tone “And what’s this?”

He then looked at Filthy angrily whilst the latter was still on his knees, “Trying to find a way to buy and tear down Sweet Apple Acres and turn it into a golf course?”

“What?!!” exclaimed the Apple Family, the Mane 6 and the Rainbooms, with everyone else gasping at what he just read.

“Y’all were tryin’ to tear down mah farm?!!” shouted Granny Smith as Filthy winced from her wrath, “After everythin’ we did to help you build up your business?!!”

Filthy didn’t know how to respond to that, whilst at the same time, Silverbolt leaned over to him as he was face to face with him.

“So, here’s a question for you, Filthy.” Said Silverbolt in a stern tone, “Do you enjoy tearing down everything I worked hard and built over the years with all of my friends at Canterlot City? I mean I was the one who booted your wife out of the Schoolboard for embezzling funds from other schools in the city, so this is sort of payback, right?”

Everyone was shocked to hear from this, with Principle Cadance saying “Wait, she was the one that caused our schools to face drastic budget cuts?!”

“That’s right,” said Silverbolt.

“My wife worked hard to get into the schoolboard position.” Said Filthy Rich.

“Worked hard?” said Silverbolt, “More like bribed them to let you in when her behavior was extremely toxic to her fellow peers. Besides, you wouldn’t know the meaning of hard work if it jumped out of the ground and ate your face off. Your father and his father before him worked hard to build up the business, whilst you just lazily sat on your fat ass doing nothing. I also worked hard over the years to build up the businesses. But I put them in different names, as well as buying other businesses to help build them up.”

Silverbolt then smirked and said “And I also bought out Barnyard Bargains about a week before I got here.”

Everyone was surprised to hear this, even Filthy.

“What?!” said Filthy, “That’s impossible, I wouldn’t allow it!!”

“Barnyard Bargains is a country company, and there’s nothing you can do about it.” Said Silverbolt, “Besides, I made a business proposition to your board and they happily agreed to sign it, which means, I own Barnyard Bargains now. Meaning…I own your sorry ass.”

Gloriosa couldn’t help but smile, seeing that Filthy is getting his just deserts.

“Every single person who helped found and started their business,” said Silverbolt, “Stood where they are today, because of the men and women who worked so hard to get their business to where it is today, through the sweat of their brows and the strengths of their backs. Sure, the businesses are different, but one must never forget the hard work the original owner and workers worked hard for to help make it a business that are still standing today.”

Silverbolt placed his finger on Filthy’s finger.

“And that…” said Silverbolt when he looked at Filthy Rich sternly, “Is something that you’ll will never, take way.”

They heard someone clearing their throat. When they turned, they saw an older man in his late sixties, walking with his cane and wearing a fancy suit, whilst also having a beard on him, as well as a well-trimmed hairstyle whilst looking sternly at Filthy Rich. For it was none other than his father, Wealthy Rich.

“He has you there, Filthy.” Said Wealthy Rich.

“F-Father?!” said Filthy Rich in surprise as he was able to stand back up. “What are you doing here?”

“A couple of old friends told me,” said Wealthy before he looked at Silverbolt and Granny Smith and winked at them, to which the latter returned. “That you had tried to tear down Camp Everfree and a few other landmarks to expand the business without permission and a permit from the city council, as well as bribing a few to tear down a few places that was never supposed to be torn.”

“He sure did.” Said Gloriosa with a glare, as well as a few others.

“I also heard, that you told Canterlot City, that I’ve gone looney.” Said Wealthy Rich as a very intimidated Filthy took a step backwards, afraid of his father whilst he was sternly staring at him. “The only looney thing I ever did was trust you, to look after the family business.”

“But I did it for a good cause,” said Filthy as he was sweating and stepping a few steps backwards, “And because of it, I merely doubled the profits of our business.”

“Yes, by wringing it from the pockets of our customers, friends and business partners.” Said Wealthy as he did not look happy. “Their trust in us, built this business and made it what it is before you took it over. And what you have done, you have squandered every last bit of its goodwill.”

He leaned towards Filthy and said “Well Filthy…I’m back, and you’re out.”

Filthy was shocked by what his father had said, with Wealthy saying, “But I can be merciful. You may still have access to your money, but only for paying bills and food on the table, but you will not use it for anything else for the business for your own greed. That is why, you will work as a janitor at a place of my choosing, until you learn the true meaning of hard work and responsibility. Even that, is too generous. And if you do not take the message, a little friend of mine that Silverbolt has given me, will show you out.”

And from out of nowhere, a baby golden bear arrived and walked casually. Silverbolt instantly recognized and ended up smirking, whilst the girls thought it was cute. Filthy on the other hand laughed and said “You expect this creature to teach me a lesson? What a joke.”

The baby golden bear on the other hand, did not look amused. “What are you going to do, chew my leg like it’s a…?”

When all of a sudden, the bear began to growl, which surprised Filthy a little. The bear growled again, but this time in a much deeper voice. When all of a sudden, the bear began to grew. Filthy slowly began to look up in shock, as everyone else, minus Wealthy and Silverbolt, were also shocked by what they were seeing. The bear was now a big adult bear and growling at Filthy Rich. The bear roared as its bear paw was raised in the air whilst Filthy screamed in shock. And with one massive whack, Filthy was knocked against the tree, hard, making him collapse onto the ground. The bear just kept staring until it suddenly shrank and turned back to normal. Wealthy walked over to Filthy and said “I will see you at work tomorrow.”

Filthy walked away as he lowered his head in shame. Everyone else was more surprised about the bear.

“What is that?” asked Applejack.

“That would be the Golden Bear of Tandoor.” Said Silverbolt, “I rescued it a while back and gave it to Wealthy as a special companion. It came from England, and the bear happens to be very magical, and when provoked or insulted, they turn into a massive bear and attack out of offense or defense.”

“Aw, it’s adorable.” Said Fluttershy as she and her pony counterpart petted it, to which the bear enjoyed.

“Now, about that barbecue.” Said Silverbolt.

“By all means, lead the way.” Said Timber Spruce.

Soon, everyone went into the house as it got all of them a chance to explore, whilst the Rainbooms and Mane 6 stayed with Silverbolt.

“Ah can’t believe Filthy would do something like this.” Said Applejack, “After everything we did for his family.”

“Reminds me of that story I heard when I was traveling in China.” Said Silverbolt, gaining their attention, “The moral of the story, greed will imprison us all. That greed has certainly imprisoned him.”

“But why though?” said pony Applejack, “The Filthy Rich back in Equestria is a reasonable business pony, how can Filthy Rich do something that cruel?”

“Uh,” said Rainbow with a flexed eyebrow, “Did you forget how he made the town miserable when he tried to be mayor?”

“And I can’t believe that you supported him,” said Rarity, “After Mayor Mare help officiate your parents’ wedding.”

“Yeah,” said pony Applejack as she rubbed the back of her head, “Ah didn’t think things clearly, and Granny wasn’t around to put him in his place cause she was out of town with her fellow Golden horseshoe galls.”

“And if you wonder why this Filthy is like this.” Said Silverbolt, “In this world, there are plenty of ways to get rich. Like if three individuals were in the room, they would have six opinions. In Equestria, there’s twenty different business opportunities whilst in this world is about over a hundred.”

“That would make sense.” Said Princess Twilight, “This world is more advanced than ours, so it would make sense that they would make more money here.”

“And more job opportunities.” Said Silverbolt, “Trust me, a few places. America, China, England, France, and a few other amazing countries I could name, a lot of them tend to travel there for job opportunities, to start anew. Though most times…there’s a 50/50 chance that all of that will backfire right in your face.”

“No kidding.” Said Rainbow. “I remembered that when my Uncle came back after he and my dad did their first term of service.”

“I remember that.” Said Silverbolt, “Both your dad and uncle struggled to find work, but I was able help them out, and that’s how your dad met your mom.”

“Thanks again for that.” Said Rainbow.

“Now then,” said Silverbolt, “We’d better get in there, don’t wanna keep folks waiting.”

They soon walked in, unknown that from far away, three assailants were watching them from afar, whilst their eyes were glowing with hatred, getting ready to strike.

**************************************************************************************************

From within the house, the party was in full swing. Everyone was amazed by the layout of the house inside, especially every single room. The Arcade was mostly crowded, but no one was complaining, especially the bowling alley. And right outside, everyone was chatting, with the waiters serving the foods and the cooks cooking every single bit of food for the guests, which everyone began to enjoy.

But not as enjoyable as the stage that was built, for anyone could get a chance to perform. However, both Snips and Snails were peeved, because there was a sign with their pictures on it, but it was them being denied, showing that the two of them were banned from performing.

Soon, Silverbolt, the Rainbooms and their respective boyfriends, along with the Mane 6 and two Spikes, watched as everyone was enjoying themselves.

“Now this is a party!!” said Pinkie Pie.

“You said it.” Said pony Pinkie Pie.

“I have to admit,” said Princess Twilight, “I’ve never seen this many people together in one big party. Well, other than the parties in Ponyville.”

“Glad you agree.” Said Silverbolt with a smile. “Now then, why don’t we enjoy ourselves for a bit, shall we?”

“Hey, Princess Twilight.”

Everyone turned and saw Flash coming up the stairs. “I was wondering where you were.”

“Oh, sorry.” Said Princess Twilight, “My friends and I were watching the Rainbooms getting their first album.”

“Really?” said Flash surprised, before looking at Silverbolt and said “You have a recording studio?!”

“Sure do.” Said Silverbolt. “In fact, if any of you have free time, all of you are more than welcome to record an album. Ah, except for Snips and Snails. I don’t trust those two, not after what happened to the last studio.”

The Rainbooms groaned at that, remembering that day, which confused the others.

“What did those two do?” asked a confused pony Applejack.

“Er, you don’t wanna know.” Said Flash Sentry, before turning to Princess Twilight. “So, uh…would it be okay if we spent time with one another?”

Princess Twilight couldn’t help but blush and smile whilst saying “I’d like that.”

The two of them held each other’s hands and walked down the stairs, with the others decided to split up, however, Silverbolt stopped the rest of the boyfriends, gaining their attention.

“Something wrong?” asked Velvet Track.

“Yeah,” said Silverbolt, “I was wondering, that during the party and everything, I was wondering if all of you would like to sing too.”

They were surprised by this, with Summer Breeze asking “Are you sure?”

“I am.” Said Silverbolt, “And maybe after that, the seven of us can perform together.”

“Come to think of it,” said Dusk Light, “I am curious to see how it would feel if we performed together.”

“Yeah, same here.” Said Rhythm Beat, “That would be awesome.”

**************************************************************************************************

After an hour, everyone had begun to enjoy their food and the music that played, even the party at the swimming pool near them. Seeing that it was time for the entertainment, Silverbolt then began to introduce the audience to the others’ songs.

“Good evening ladies and gentleman.” Said Silverbolt through the microphone, gaining everyone’s attention as they looked at him. “I’d like to thank everyone for coming along to this little shin digue. So, I hope you continue to enjoy the food, drinks and swimming and dancing, for we also have some talented folks here who really wants to perform for all of you. Up first, I’d like to welcome Fast Track, who volunteers to perform.”

Everyone cheered as Summer Breeze walks up on stage and begins to ready his instrument, with a few other musicians next to him to help him before.

“This song goes to a special lady of mine, whose more loyal than anyone in the world.” Said Fast Track.

Rainbow was a little surprised, and within a split second, Fast Track began to perform.

Everyone was amazed by how he sounded, for he was really performing well on the stage.

**************************************************************************************************

After he was done, everyone cheered as he stepped off of the stage, with Rainbow jumping up from behind and hugging him.

“Nice playing there, stud.” Said Rainbow before she kissed him by the back of his neck.

“Thanks.” Said Fast Track before he spun her around and held her near, but ended up holding her posterior, making her flustered in the process.

“Fast.” Muttered Rainbow, “Not in front of the others.”

“Then would you like some…” said Fast Track before he slowly whispered by Rainbow’s ear and said “Private time?”

Rainbow ended up having the biggest grin, grabbed him, and zoomed him as fast as you can say peanut butter. Silverbolt overheard and saw them, which he couldn’t help but shake his head whilst he chuckled at the same time before he made his next announcement.

“And up next, another one who wanted to sing his heart out.” Said Silverbolt, “Give it up for, Velvet Heart.”

Velvet Heart slowly walked up the stage and watched the crowd whilst he was feeling nervous at the same time. But when he looked at Fluttershy, he felt himself being brave. He took a breath and began to sing the moment when the song played.

Everyone was amazed when they see him sing and dance on the stage, for he really knows how to move his body with the song and beat, with Fluttershy staring at him in awe with widened eyes and a smile.

**************************************************************************************************

After he was done, Velvet stepped off of the stage, and saw Fluttershy walking up to him.

“Oh, hey Flutters, what’s…” said Velvet.

But Fluttershy cut him off by grabbing him, and kissed him full on the lips, taking everyone else by surprise, but not as surprised as Velvet Heart, as he instantly melted into it and held her close.

After they broke the hug, she motioned if he wanted to go inside, with him instantly nodding, causing him to be pulled away, with Silverbolt actually being impressed by her bravery.

“Up next,” said Silverbolt as he introduced the next singer, “Let’s give it up for Rhythm Beat, who’s really going to show us how to really throw a beat.”

They saw Rhythm Beat walk up on stage with his special dance clothes, in order to really make him feel the beat. He saw Pinkie Pie and winked at her, making her blush and giggle at the same time.

“Alright then…” said Rhythm Beat. “Time to get this party started.”

Everyone saw how Rhythm Beat began to dance whilst singing at the same time, and the way he was dancing very wildly, was truly a sight to behold, for everyone sees just how well he dances, which got everyone hyped up as some tried to dance the way he did, even Pinkie danced with him on stage as she began to enjoy the songs.

**************************************************************************************************

After the song, everyone cheered whilst Pinkie jumped up and wrapped her arms around Rhythm Beat with both her feet in the air whilst her lips were against his. After she broke it, Pinkie had a lustful look on her face, with her instantly grabbing Rhythm to have some private time.

Silverbolt just shook his head, for is every guy of the Rainbooms going to have that much fun. Then again, he and Sunset already had their share of fun and it resulted a room being blown up. Thankfully he used his magic this morning to fix it.

“Up next, is a personal favorite of another, who wishes to sing this to his beautiful lady.” Said Silverbolt, “So I do hope you enjoy this song.”

Platinum walked up on stage with a smile on his face whilst walking over to the microphone.

“This is for a special diamond of mine.” Said Platinum, “May her glamour continue to shine.”

Rarity blushed by what he said, with Platinum clearing his throat and preparing to sing.

As the music began to play, everyone soon began to feel captivated by this special song, even Rarity began to love it. But during that song, he gestured Rarity to join him on stage, to which she did. But the moment she did, he suddenly held onto her as the two of them did a slow dance, to which Rarity felt moved by this gesture and held onto him during the dance, for it felt quite enjoyable whilst holding onto him.

**************************************************************************************************

After song ended, everyone cheered Platinum’s song, both of them walked backstage for some privacy, to which Rarity said “Darling, could I ask you a favor?”

“Anything for my dear lady.” Said Platinum. Rarity then blushed and whispered something to his ear, with him suddenly blushing. And after she was done, he said “Why Rarity, are you sure you want a lady to do that?”

Rarity giggled and slowly held onto his hands, whilst directing them to her posterior, which surprised him as she looked at him with bedroom eyes and asked “Does this answer your question?”

Out of instinct, Rarity almost yelped when Platinum playfully squeezed her posterior and kissed her, making her giggle before the two of them walked off.

“Up next,” said Silverbolt when he was onstage, “Another wishes to sing something special, for his adorkable girl, he says.”

Twilight blushed as she realized that he meant. Dusk Light soon stepped on stage and began to sing his favorite song.

Twilight began to like the song, especially since the way he was carrying the lyrics, especially adding a few beats to it.

**************************************************************************************************

After he was done, he stepped off of the stage and whispered something to Twilight, to which she blushed and agreed, allowing the two of them to move somewhere private.

Silverbolt then walked up on stage and said “Alright then, now for the next act, I hope you enjoy some good tunes.”

Silverbolt then took a turn with his songs.

Everyone was amazed to see how well Silverbolt was performing, even Sunset was impressed by what he was doing.

**************************************************************************************************

After the performance, everyone then cheers for you. However, Silverbolt then said “And now, I have a special surprise for all of you, something that you’ve never thought would be possible.”

Some murmured, and wondered what was going on.

“I have two surprises. One who is a singer and the other a band.” Said Silverbolt. “We’ll start with the singer. Everyone, please welcome, Darius Rucker!!”

Everyone gasped and were surprised when they saw Darius walked up on stage as he said “Knock em dead, pal.”

“Thanks, man.” Said Darius as he sat on his chair with the rest of his instrument players. Soon enough, he began to play.

Everyone was amazed and cheered for him when they saw him perform, even Sunset was surprised to see this as Silverbolt stood next to her.

“How did you…?” said Sunset in disbelief.

“I helped him start his career.” Said Silverbolt with a smile, “I taught him everything he needed to know about music.”

Sunset was impressed that Silverbolt struck again with the people he knows.

**************************************************************************************************

After the song, Darius walked off stage where people were thanking him for the performance, with the bouncers helping and guiding him to a private table as they prepared something special for him.

“And now, a very special treat for all of you.” Said Silverbolt when he was on stage. “Now, it’s been a long time since anyone heard them perform, especially when a certain singer stopped performing long ago. But today, is a special day. Please welcome, a band that needs to introduction!!”

Silverbolt stepped out of the way and a certain band began to play.

To their shock, it was none other than the band Journey. But it wasn’t just them, their lead singer, Steve Perry, was with them. Everyone was shocked and amazed to see them perform again, which all of them were cheering. Sunset was flabbergasted by what she was seeing.

“You’ve got journey, and Steve Perry?!” exclaimed Sunset.

“That’s right.” Said Silverbolt.

“But…how?!” said Sunset.

“I bumped into him last year.” Said Silverbolt, “When I saw him, he felt lost and broken. Turned out he missed the singing, and his throat and hip wasn’t all that good. So, I offered to pay for surgery, and it became a huge success. I convinced him not to give up on music. He took it by heart, apologized to his bandmates for leaving, and they’ve been tight and wanted to have a chance to perform ever since.”

Sunset kept staring at him in amazement. She suddenly extended her arms, walked up to him, hugged him, and kissed him. “I am so in love with you right now.”

“Weren’t you already?” said Silverbolt playfully, with Sunset not being able to help herself but playfully bump her fist against his shoulder.

**************************************************************************************************

Afterwards, everyone began to enjoy their food and drinks, whilst at the same time, the rest of the Rainbooms arrived with their boyfriends, with Silverbolt smelling something from them. Oh, he knows what it is.

“Had a little fun, have we?” said Silverbolt playfully.

The latter blushed and coughed, trying to not think about it.

“Well, if that’s the case, I believe we should be on stage.” Said Silverbolt, much to their confusion. “What, you did say you’d like to perform with me on stage, remember?”

“Oh yeah, we did.” Said Fast Track as the others slowly remembered.

“So, shall we?” said Silverbolt as he led them to the stage, with the Rainbooms watching them going to the stage.

Silverbolt and the others were on stage together, getting ready. However, something felt off. The moment they were on stage together, they were compelled to pick up an instrument of their choice. One by one, each of them picked an instrument.

Silverbolt picked the guitar, same with Dusk Light. Fast Track created a Lead Guitar, Velvet Heart picked up a Rhythm Guitar, Platinum picked up a Keytar, and Summer Breeze picked up a Bass Guitar, with Rhythm Beat picking the Drums.

They moved to different positions, getting their instruments ready.

“Any idea what we’re going to perform?” asked Rhythm Beat.

And suddenly, at the same time, they said “Fire and Flames.”

They were stunned in silence as they looked at one another, surprised by what they said. Though…they weren’t really sure, it somehow still felt very familiar. The Rainbooms however, noticed something off too.

However, they decided to shrug it off…and rock it off.

They saw how Silverbolt and the others were rocking together, though to their surprise, they look like they’re in perfect sync with one another, as if they have played before. How they play, how wild, they were. However, something unexpected happened.

They saw Silverbolt had begun to pony up as he played the guitar wildly, which surprised some when they saw him like this.

“Wait,” said pony Rainbow, “Is this what you and the others looked like when you used your magic?”

“That’s right.” Said Princess Twilight.

“Dang, that looks weird.” Said pony Applejack.

However, to the rest of the Rainbooms’ shock, that the moment that their boyfriends had begun to rock out, they saw that they began to pony up too, one by one. Soon, the song ended, and the ponied down, which the crowd cheered, but the Rainbooms were still shocked by what they had seen.

Suddenly, Silverbolt and the rest of the boys slowly turned to one another, took a good look, and surprisingly, began to shed tears. Within a split second, they instantly hugged one another in one big group. The crowd didn’t seem to mind, but the Rainbooms felt something was off.

“I don’t believe it.” Muttered Silverbolt, as they broke the hug whilst still smiling and shedding tears, “You’re here. You’re actually here.”

“We…we are.” Said Fast Track, with the others also still shedding tears.

They instantly hugged again, not wanting to let one another…

Then the stage suddenly exploded, sending them flying and crashing against the wall, shocking the crowd. But just before the Rainbooms could go over…

“RAINBOOMS!!”

The girls turned to their direction, and to their shock, it was none other than the Dazzlings, all three of them who seem to have their magic back, and floating towards the Rainbooms.

“We have a score to settle!!” said Adagio. “It’s high time you girls paid for what you did!!”

“What we did?!” exclaimed Rainbow in disbelief. “You’re the ones who tried to take over the school!!”

“Which was lazy thinking by the way!!” shouted Pinkie Pie.

“We’ll show you Lazy!!” shouted Aria.

“Girls?!!” said Sunset as she looked at the girls.

“Let’s do it!!” said the Rainbooms.

With their combined efforts, the girls transformed into their forms whilst also ponying up at the same time. They floated and were ready to face the Dazzlings.

“Girls!!” said Princess Twilight, “Let’s focus on making sure the people are safe!!”

“Right!!” said the rest of the Mane 6 as they quickly helped the others.

Within a split second, the Rainbooms and Dazzlings attacked one another in full strength, as a battle had just begun.

***************************************************************************************************

Silverbolt looked out, until he grunted and slowly got up, same with the others.

“Boy,” said Fast Track, “I haven’t felt this poorly since that wild party we had after we released our first album.”

“Tell me about it.” Said Rhythm Beat, “I’ll never go back to Orogen again.”

“Uh, guys.” Said Platinum, “I think we’ve got trouble.”

The guys turned and saw the Rainbooms fighting the Dazzlings. Though from the looks of things, the Rainbooms weren’t going to last long.

“Wait,” said Silverbolt, “You guys feel that?”

“That dark energy that those three girls are using?” said Dusk Light, “Yeah, I do.”

“Our girlfriends aren’t going to last long.” Said Summer Breeze, “Even with the power of Harmony by their side, the power the Dazzlings are wielding is more different than we could ever imagine.”

“What’ll we do?” said Velvet Heart.

Silverbolt looked down for a moment, and realized the only thing they had to do. He looked at them and said “The only way we can. And I think you all know what.”

They instantly figured out what he was getting at and were shocked. “Are you crazy?!” shouted Fast Track in shock.

“You remember the oath we took, right?!” said Summer Breeze.

“To hell with it!!” said Silverbolt, which shocked the others. “We’ve been out of the action for too long. And if my hunch is correct on where the Dazzlings got their power from, that means he’s back. And if he’s back…”

They caught on from what he said, and realized that he was right and that they have no other choice. They then had serious looks on their faces and nodded in agreement.

Silverbolt looked at the fight sternly and said “Let’s do this.”

They stood up and moved straight towards the battle and past the crowd.

*****************************************************************************************************

The Rainbooms were struggling to fight back against the Dazzlings, with their clothes being partially shredded, with everyone else watching in worry over what happened.

“This is the end for you, Rainbooms!!” shouted Adagio, “And now we shall have our…!!”

“STOP!!”

Everyone turned to the voice, and they saw Silverbolt walking in front of the crowd, having a stern look on his face at the same time, Fast Track, Velvet Heart, Platinum, Summer Breeze, Dusk Light, and Rhythm Beat, all of them having stern looks on their faces.

“If you touch a single hair on our girlfriends, you have to go through us!!” shouted Fast Track.

The Rainbooms were now greatly worried, with the Dazzlings, minus Sonata as she recognized Silverbolt as the boy she met at the bus stop, chuckling at this.

“You’re joking, right?” asked Adagio.

“I think the bigger question is…” said Platinum, before he squinted his eyes and asked “Are you ready to rock?”

The Rainbooms were wondering what they were doing, with Aria asking in amusement, “And suppose we are?”

Summer Breeze clapped his hands together and shouted “The let’s rip this open!!”, whilst he generated fire and created a Bass with an axe tip at the bottom.

Everyone, from the Dazzlings, the Rainbooms, the Mane 6 and everyone else present around them watched them in surprise. Within a split second, a pic appeared in thin air, causing Summer Breeze to grab it. Within a split second, he began to play a deep and heavy tune.

As for the others.

Fast Track generated lightning from his hands and created an electric guitar, Velvet Heart generated water from his hands and created a rhythm guitar, Platinum moved his hands in a circular formation, causing his Keytar to be created, Dusk Light spun his arms around as he generated energy and created his own guitar, with Silverbolt shooting lasers from his eyes and created his own guitar, whilst Rhythm Beat crossed his arms in an x style and screeched to the heavens whilst creating a sonic wave, whilst they instantly created drum sticks in his hands. Rhythm beat began to beat something, and within a split second, he created a drum set.

The seven guys played their music in perfect sync as they generated strong powerful energy. But not just any energy, magic beyond Equestrian Magic.

MMMMM

YEEEAAAHH!!!

With a powerful wave, it nearly knocked everyone back, as Silverbolt and the others continued to play together as they all began to pony up at the same time, but also generated so much energy at the same time. And with a great flash, the seven transformed.

Silverbolt transformed into a Cyborg of sorts, strangely wearing jeans and boots, holding what appeared to be a guitar.

Rhythm Beat transformed into a man wearing some kind of spacesuit, but he looked really different too, holding what appeared to be drum sticks

Fast Track turned into a green anthropomorphic bird, with Velvet Heart turned into a blue one, both of them wearing what appeared to be different biker outfits.

Summer Breeze turned into what appeared to be a cowboy, something western related. This one was holding a Bass guitar.

Platinum turned into what appeared to be a Cyborg, nearly relating to the first one, but he was holding what appeared to be a Keytar.

Dusk Light turned into a type of armour that would almost put Darth Vader to shame, but he was holding what appeared to be a guitar related to both the lead and rhythm.

Everyone was shocked and stunned by what they were seeing, as Silverbolt and the others have transformed whilst performing at the same time, generating so much power that none could fathom what was right in front of them as they were harmonizing at the same time.

(Silverbolt)

Tonight

I wanna stand by your side

In the darkness

With Amadeus’ guitar’s energy wave, it sent it straight to the Dazzlings, which knocked them back a feet away, whilst at the same time, to the Rainboom’s surprise, they were instantly energized whilst their clothing was fixed and their wounds were healed.

(Silverbolt)

Is all I want to do

The Dazzlings, whilst barely being able to stand, shockingly saw Silverbolt and the others performing their music whilst generating more powerful magic at the same time.

(Silverbolt)

And tonight

I wanna hold you tight

Cause you were made for me

But am I made for you?

Within a split second, the rest minus Rhythm Beat were standing side by side with Silverbolt as they sang together:

(Gods of Music)

I am so in love with you, baby

Are you in love with me?!!

Some had their mouths opened as they were surprised by what they were seeing:

(Gods of Music)

Cause I can sense the love in you, baby

Can you sense the love in me?

The Dazzlings prepared to attack again as they floated in the air.

(Silverbolt)

Tonight

I wanna stay by your side

As they were about to pounce on them, their instruments lit up again:

Amadeus:

I feel the magic

That resides in us all

Within mere moments, the Dazzlings were knocked back as they felt their power slowly weakening:

(Silverbolt)

Tonight

I wanna give you my heart

Cause you’re the one for me.

Am I the one for you?

Before the Dazzlings could react, Silverbolt suddenly stepped forward and sang, causing a massive sonic wave to be created:

(Gods of Music)

I am so in love with you, baby

Are you in love with me?

Adagio was suddenly knocked back by a powerful wave. Sonata then hurled energy balls towards them, until Fast Track and Velvet Heart stepped forward and with their combined power, created a shield that knocked the energy balls back, which in turn caused her to be struck down.

(Gods of Music)

Cause I can sense the love in you, baby

Can you sense the love in me?

Aria got angry as she grabbed a large rock and threw it with all her might, until Summer Breeze used his Bass to create a fiery axe and sliced not just the rock in half, but sent a massive flame, knocking Aria backwards too.

(Gods of Music)

I am so in love with you, baby

Are you in love with me?

Cause I can sense the love in you, baby

Can you sense the love in me?

Large speakers suddenly appeared behind everyone, surprising everyone in the process, and with their powers, knocked the Dazzlings back, which broke their magical shields, whilst also leaving their gems exposed.

Silverbolt could see the opening, which caused the rest to see as well. They continued to play their instruments, creating a much more powerful energy, with Silverbolt standing up front and raised his hand in the air, whilst at the same time, a massive energy being wearing armor and a cape appeared from behind whilst raising its sword in the air, which shocked everyone around them.

(Gods of Music)

I am so in love with you, baby

Are you in love with me?

Cause I can sense the love in you, baby

Can you sense the love in me?

I am so in love with you, baby

Are you in love with me?

Cause I can sense the love in you, baby

Can you sense the love in me?

Silverbolt instantly moved his hand forward, causing the massive energy being to thrust its sword towards the Dazzlings, causing them to be engulfed with the power, overpowering them and destroyed their gems in the process, depowering them once more.

****************************************************************************************************

Soon the dust begins to settle, and the Dazzlings were down in defeat. Silverbolt and the others slowly landed whilst turning back to normal at the same time, but temporarily kept their ponied-up forms. Everyone, even the Rainbooms and Mane 6, stared at them in shock and awe.

Among the Dazzlings, he saw Sonata was with them. Silverbolt, remembering what happened to her, walked over towards her. Some were concern, but he kept moving towards her. He slowly stood on one knee and gently shook her.

“Hey there,” said Silverbolt, “Wake up.”

Sonata groaned a bit and slowly raised her head. Then she saw Silverbolt’s face. At first she was a bit frightened, but Silverbolt calmed her down as he held onto her shoulders, with the Rainbooms and Mane 6, along with the two Spikes joining them, only enough of an earshot from them.

“Hey, it’s okay.” Said Silverbolt calmly, “No one is going to hurt you, okay?”

Sonata was a bit skeptical, but looked down in shame and said “I’m so sorry…I didn’t want any part of this. But they…”

At the same time, both Adagio and Aria woke up and slowly sat up too. “They dragged you into this?”

“Not like they gave me any other choice.” Said Sonata, still looking down in shame.

“There’s always a choice.” Said Silverbolt. “I told you that I’d find a way to help you, if you want it. That’s what friends do for one another.”

Hearing that, caused the two to growl.

“You made friends when we told you, not to?!” said Adagio.

“I should’ve known…!!” said Aria.

Silverbolt suddenly stood up and shouted “Do you mind?!!”

The two of them were startled and kept quiet, with Silverbolt looking at Sonata.

“You always have a choice Sonata.” Said Silverbolt, “Don’t you dare let anyone else tell you differently. Speak your mind, reach out to others. After all,…”

He then looked at her with compassion and kindness and said “You’ve always been my favorite little ditzy.”

Sonata gasped in shock with widened eyes. She then instantly saw the face of a little colt she knew long ago. She then slowly shed a few tears, stuttering, barely being able to get a word out, and within a split second, she instantly hugged him tightly, with him hugging her back. The Rainbooms were surprised to see her hug him, but they knew the truth.

After they broke the hug, Sonata smiled with joy, knowing who Silverbolt was. He then looked at Aria and walked on over. She looked at him and scoffed.

“I’ve got nothing to say to you.” Muttered Aria.

Silverbolt couldn’t help but chuckle and stand on one knee and said “You always were cute whenever you got mad Ari.”

Aria grunted and looked at him sternly.

“No one…but one…is allowed to call me that.” Threatened Aria.

“Even when I was the only one who understood you when no one else did?” said Silverbolt.

“What are you…?”

Silverbolt then held a feather of sorts, which Aria was puzzled. But then she squinted her eyes when she tried to focus and take a closer look to it. She then widened her eyes in shock. She slowly looked at him, and then recognized the eyes and smile anywhere. To everyone’s surprise, even Sonata, Aria teared up and literally jumped into Silverbolt’s arms and hugged him tightly. After the hug, the two of them stood up, with Aria still smiling warmly, which was very rare of her to do.

Silverbolt then walked up to Adagio, with her grunting and not wanting to look at him. He then said “You don’t recognize me, do you?”

He gently helped her up, and she reluctantly ended up looking at him. Then he ended up doing something that caught her off-guard; he kissed her on both sides of her cheeks and then the top of her forehead, which surprised her as she blushed a little bit.

“Love you with hugs and kisses.” Replied Silverbolt.

Adagio gasped in shock whilst widening her eyes. She instantly remembered from long ago.

“I…it’s you…” said Adagio, “You’re that little colt we met long ago.”

“It’s been far too long Adagio.” Said Silverbolt whilst Aria and Sonata joined her.

“How is it possible?” said Sonata.

Silverbolt sighed and said “After you lot left; I continue to grow up with Gusty. But many years later, Grogar attacked our villages. We both stood up to him, and I ended up absorbing his Bell by accident, and I ended up being an Alicorn. But unfortunately, it also made me immortal, so I was forced to watch her and my loved once wither, come and go. After that, I traveled all over Equestria, helping those in need. But another reason…I was looking for you three.”

The Dazzlings were surprised by this as he continued.

“I knew the Sirens would live long lives more than any creature,” said Silverbolt, “But no matter where I went, I followed the Siren patterns, I tried to find you. But when Yogh and Cthulhu came along, I heard what they did to your kind. I was enraged by what happened, so I hunted them down to the ends of the earth. Then during that time, when I explored to another world, I heard from Stygian about three remaining Sirens attacking a village, who blamed them for destroying their kind who had nothing to do with it. I tried to go there as fast as I could, but by the time I got there, it was too late.”

He looked at them again and said “After when I heard what happened to Stygian, the pony who told us about you, that was the last straw. I was angry and Starswirl and the rest of the Pillars, I ended up stripping the Power of Harmony from them. And after I killed Cthulhu and Yogh, I soon left Equestria. One part I was fed up with it, but the other part…I was looking for you three, but all of you were in a different part of time, and I was a hundred years too early.”

Silverbolt closed his eyes, trying to contain his tears, but then looked at them and said “Combined on both Equestria and this world…I spent the past 200 years looking for you. And I never stopped looking. You three were the first ever non-pony creatures that I got close with and…I could never forgive myself if I let this carried on. And when I saw Sonata, I realized all of you were here, somewhere in Canterlot City. I just had to find you but…I couldn’t bear to face you, not after what happened.”

Silverbolt couldn’t help but smile and said “You have no idea; how happy I am to see you three again.”

The Dazzlings couldn’t help but shed tears and smiled too. Silverbolt then asked “But why? Why did you do this? Why did you go down this path? Why?”

The three of them didn’t know how to respond to it and looked away in shame. Sonata was the first one to answer.

“It wasn’t our fault.” Said Sonata, whilst trying to contain her tears, “We were forced to do all those things.”

“Forced to?” asked Silverbolt.

“During our travels.” Said Sonata, “A stranger appeared and wiped-out half of our fellow sirens, even our father. Then he offered us the gems that the Rainbooms destroyed, and said he’d spare our kind if we followed him and did what he said.”

“We did what he instructed us to do.” Said Aria. “But we didn’t count on being banished to this world. We tried to cope with whatever magic we had left, but the amulets kept us corrupted, wanting to serve him when the time comes. But after the Rainbooms destroyed them, we felt lost, bitter, like we were robbed of everything.”

“We tried the best we could to live our lives,” said Adagio, “But no matter how hard we tried, things only got worse for us. Then when Equestrian Magic somehow appeared, we thought it would be not only our chance to be accepted, but to escape the world. But after the Rainbooms stopped us, we had nowhere else to go, and we couldn’t ask them for help, not after what we did. So, we tried to live our lives as best we could.”

“Then a stranger came along and offered us more powerful gems so that we would exact our revenge.” Said Sonata in regret, “Even though his voice did sound somehow familiar.”

“Familiar?” asked Silverbolt.

“Yeah,” said Sonata, “He has this scary looking helmet that made him sound like a cyborg and also had red eyes with what appeared to be a snake’s eye on his chest.”

Silverbolt widened his eyes in shock before looking at Fast Track and the others, who were also shocked to hear this. He cleared his throat and said “Well you don’t have to worry about that anymore.”

The Dazzlings looked at him, with him saying “I know it’s been a long time, and that all of you have gone through hard times. But please, don’t let the bad affect you. Don’t be a puppet to darkness anymore. All I’m asking is…give friendship a chance. Give me a chance. Let me help you.”

The Dazzlings looked at him for a bit, but the thought of seeing him again, after all this time, they couldn’t help but hug him tightly, with him hugging them back. For he was really happy to see them.

“S-Silverbolt?”

Silverbolt opened his eyes and looked up, and saw the shocked and stunned Rainbooms near them.

“What happened?” asked Sunset, “How did you…?”

He saw everyone gathered near him, with him looking at Fast Track and the others. They nodded in agreement, with him looking at everyone.

“We need to talk.” Said Silverbolt.
