“And that's how our date went,” finished Green Amaranth.

The zombie pony kept some parts of the date out, like the infinite storage saddlebag, the potions, bleeding universes, etc. Everyone was looking at the two with shocked faces.

As for the party pony, her head was down as she was looking at the table. Pinkie Pie has been ever since Green Amaranth made it to the part about them being at Sugarcube Corner. “I don’t need to look up to see the faces they’re making. They’re all disappointed in me,” thought the party pony. “They’re going to be even more disappointed once I tell them the reason why. They might even hate me.”

“Pinkie, you have to look up at your friends at some point, and even if you ignore their looks, you can’t ignore their voices,” said Pinkamena.

She knows that the killer pony was right. “Ughhh,” thought the party pony.

“Pinkie Pie?” asked a familiar voice.

Pinkie Pie was worried as she knew who that voice belonged to without having to look up. But that’s not what the party pony was worried about. “Please, don’t ask me the question. Please, I’m begging you,” thought Pinkie Pie.

The party pony looked up at the pony who the voice belonged to, which turned out to be Fluttershy.

The shy pony also looked worried, but at the same time, looked like she was about to cry. Fluttershy really hoped that what the zombie pony told them really didn’t happen. “I-Is it true? Did you really…?” she asked.

Pinkie Pie looked back down, ashamed. “...Y-Yes,” she said.

The shy pony only whimpered. Applejack, who was sitting next to Fluttershy, gave a one-hoofed side hug to her. The shy pony hugged the apple pony back while whimpering into her chest.

Applejack looked at the party pony with a disappointed look. “Why did ya go an’ do a horrible thing like that ta G.A., Pinkie?” asked the apple pony, disappointed.

Tears started to appear in her eyes. “I-It’s because I was in heat, a-and it was unbearable since I’ve never actually been with a stallion before. I wasn’t in my right mind, and I ended up raping G.A.,” said Pinkie Pie. “And now I’m pregnant with his foal. It’s all my fault.”

The party pony started crying. As for the rest of her friends, Twilight had her mouth open in shock while Spike was confused, Rarity didn’t know which one of her friends to comfort, and Rainbow Dash was silent as she stared at the two. Suddenly, the zombie pony placed Carrie down by his side, and then hugged Pinkie Pie, patting her on the back, surprising everyone, except for Fluttershy, who was still whimpering into Applejack’s chest.

The zombie pony resisted the urge to flinch away from the hug. “There, there, Pinkie. I still forgive you for what you did,” said Green Amaranth. “Also, we agreed to share the blame, remember? So, it’s both of our faults. Okay?”

The party pony sniffed. “O-Okay,” she said.

He continued to hug Pinkie Pie for a few more seconds before letting her go. Then, the zombie pony placed the zombie bunny back onto his head.

The fashion pony decided it was time to speak. “Darling, not to be critical or anything, but why do you say it’s ‘your fault as well’?” asked Rarity, confused.

Green Amaranth shrugged. “I should’ve noticed something was up during the date. I mean, my first and only clue should’ve been the ‘perfume’,” said the zombie pony. “It was getting stronger and stronger around me as time went by. I should’ve put two and two together, but instead I only focused on the date just to make it fun for Pinkie.”

The party pony turned to face him, worried. “And it was fun! Really!” she exclaimed, serious. “I had a wonderful time!”

The zombie pony turned to Pinkie Pie, smiling. “And I am glad you did. I had a wonderful time too,” said Green Amaranth. He then frowned. “Until the end, but still. It was pretty fun though. I really liked that drink from the Bubblegum Parlor. It was pretty great.”

She smiled. “Yeah! Mine was too,” said the party pony. “I was kind of surprised that you liked something with alcohol in it. Do you normally drink alcohol?”

Green Amaranth shook his head. “No. I’ve never actually drunk alcohol before,” the zombie pony informed. He became stunned. “There was alcohol in it?”

Which was strange to Green Amaranth because when he looked over the menu a few times during the first date, there wasn’t any mention of alcohol anywhere, not even in the Starlit Galaxy Paradise. Not only that, but alcohol shouldn’t even exist anywhere in Equestria either. Before Pinkie Pie could answer the zombie pony’s question, the dragon kid decided to ask a question.

He seemed confused. “What is rape? And if Pinkie Pie was hot, then shouldn’t she have gone somewhere to cool off?” asked Spike, curious.

Everyone was silent as no one knew how to respond to the dragon kid’s questions.

Twilight Sparkle had snapped out of her shock. The smart pony looked down at him with a soft frown. “Spike…I’ll tell you when you’re older,” she said. “For now, just forget about it.”

“But-” said Spike, but was then interrupted.

The fashion pony gave the dragon kid a stern look. “Spikey-wikey, please,” she said, soft tone.

Hearing Rarity say that, in the end he decided to drop it.

The fashion pony decided to change the subject. She looked at Green Amaranth and the party pony. “Are you two planning to get married or stay together and raise them?” asked Rarity.

He already had an answer to the fashion pony’s question. “Well, we both decided to stay together and raise our foal. They’re going to need their parents after all,” answered Green Amaranth. “As for marriage…” The zombie pony looked at Pinkie Pie before looking back at the smart pony, a smile on his face. “I still love Pinkie despite what she did, and she’d make a great wife one day. I’ll propose to her when she least expects it. That's more romantic.”

That surprised the party pony hearing that Green Amaranth will be planning to propose to her one day. “Wait. What did you just say?!” said Pinkie Pie, blushing.

The zombie pony pretended like he didn't hear the party pony’s question just to mess with her, which worked. Green Amaranth then looked at the rainbow pony who had been silent throughout the entire conversation.

“You’ve been silent the whole time, Rainbow. Got anything to say?” he asked.

“Nope,” she said.

From the looks of it, Rainbow Dash had something to say, but didn’t want to say it.

“Really? Nothing nice comes to mind like ‘congratulations’ or something like that?” asked the zombie pony.

“Congratulations,” said the rainbow pony, deadpan tone.

“Thanks,” said Green Amaranth, in the same tone. “Probably had nothing good to say anyway.” The zombie pony then looked at everyone. “While my cousin, Love Syndrome, will be the foal’s aunt, I’ve decided to choose Fluttershy as aunt number two since I know that she's great with foals.”

The moment the shy pony heard that, she removed her face from the apple pony’s chest.

Fluttershy was surprised. “M-Me? A-are you sure?” she asked, shyly. From behind, the shy pony’s wings were fluttering happily. “Anypony else would be a better choice.”

“Sorry Fluttershy, but I’m not changing my mind. Besides, Pinkie also thought you were a good choice too,” he said, adamant.

The party pony nodded, smiling. “Mm-hmm!” she said, agreeing.

Fluttershy blushed. “Th-Thank you for choosing me. I promise to be the best aunt to your foal,” said the shy pony.

Pinkie Pie smiled. “We know you will, Fluttershy,” said the party pony.

The fashion pony smiled. “And darlings, if you ever need outfits made for your foal, then just come straight to me. I can’t wait to make fabulous outfits for your colt or filly,” she offered.

The zombie pony smiled. “Thanks, Rarity,” said Green Amaranth.

Everything seemed nice. Well, until somepony decided to ruin it.

Twilight Sparkle had a conflicted look on her face. “Sorry for asking this, but how can you be so forgiving towards Pinkie Pie, G.A.?” asked the smart pony.

Everyone looked at her.

“I mean, she raped you, and is now having your foal. If anypony went through that, they would’ve been traumatized completely and needed help,” said Twilight Sparkle, confused. The smart pony looked at him. “I know that there’s no way you came out of it untraumatized. ”

Pinkamena growled. “What the buck does Twilight think she’s doing? Everything was squared away until she had to open her big mouth,” she said. “Didn't she hear him say that he was fine and that he forgives us?”

Pinkie Pie was only silent.

He groaned. “I'm fine, Twilight. I had an entire month to think about what happened,” explained Green Amaranth. “And after the pregnancy was found out thanks to Mrs. Cake, me and Pinkie talked it out, and now everything's squared away.” The zombie pony then had a frown on his face. “So, I don’t think I need any help when I actually feel better. Now, I think it would be better if this was no longer brought up. Okay?”

“But-” said Twilight Sparkle, interrupted.

Green Amaranth decided to change the subject. “So, now that that’s over, I’d like to inform you all that my house is almost finished being built,” he informed. “In just a few days, I'll be a homeowner.”

The zombie pony's news surprised everyone. He wasn’t joking at all. After Green Amaranth had enough Bits, he went to City Hall, bought some property, and commissioned some ponies to build the zombie pony a home

“Well, good. He changed the subject,” said the killer pony. “Now we don't have to talk about-Wait, what did he just say?”

The party pony was surprised. “G.A.'s moving out in a few days,” she thought.

“Oh. Well, that’s good for him, I guess,” said Pinkamena, in an indifferent tone. “With him moving out of the basement, we could convert it into a place where we can torture and kill our victims before making them into cupcakes.”

Pinkie Pie didn’t respond to what the killer pony was saying and continued to focus on her coltfriend and friends’ conversation.

Applejack gave Green Amaranth a smile. “Congrats on gettin' yerself a place to call home. We might have ta hold a party ta celebrate ya movin’ ta yer new home,” she said. The apple pony smiled at the party pony. “Ain’t that right, Pinkie?”

Everyone looked at her, but then became shocked as they saw Pinkie Pie crying as there were tears coming from the party pony’s eyes.

“A-Are you moving out because of me? B-Because I raped you?” she questioned.

He was shocked even more. “What?!” said the zombie pony. Green Amaranth then grabbed the party pony’s face with his hooves. “No! That’s not why I’m moving out Pinkie! I’d never move out because of that!

Pinkie Pie looked up at the zombie pony. “Th-Then why are you moving out?” she asked.

He gave the party pony a smile. “First of all, I’m moving out next month, not in a few days, nd second, it's not your fault that I’m moving out in the first place,” Green Amaranth informed. “After all, me staying over at the bakery was only temporary, remember? Also, I don't want to take up any more space once the Cakes' foals are born.”

She sniffed. “R-Really?” asked Pinkie Pie.

The zombie pony nodded. “Yeah. I really want to be with you and our foals,” he said. “I just wish there was a way for both of us to get what we want.”

Someone decided to give their own suggestion to the two.

“Then why don’t Pinkie Pie just move in with you?” suggested the dragon kid.

Everyone looked at Spike, some of them looked at the dragon kid like he suggested something stupid.

“I-I mean, if they want to be together, then shouldn’t they move in together?” questioned Spike.

Applejack shook her head. “Not ta rain on yer parade, but what makes ya so sure that they wanna move in togetha after what happened? Ah mean, it’s up ta them if they want ta or not,” said the apple pony.

The party pony looked at Green Amaranth with an expression between worry and expectation.

“Ugh, she’s looking at me with those eyes. If I say yes, I lose, but if I say no, she loses,” thought the zombie pony, despairing. “No matter which I choose, either one of us loses.” Green Amaranth thought about it. The zombie pony wanted to be there as a father to his own foals, even if that meant the party pony moving into the zombie pony’s future house, and especially since the mental scars would need time to heal. In the end, Green Amaranth made his decision.

“Sure. I’d love for you to move in with me,” confirmed the zombie pony.

Pinkie Pie, hearing Green Amaranth's answer, started cheering but made sure not to bounce around. “Yip-pee! Once the house is built, the first thing I’m going to do is hold a party at our new house to celebrate us moving in together. Then–” she said.

While the party pony was off rambling, the zombie pony gave a small smile as he inwardly sighed. “This is the mare who I chose to be with and is the one who I’m going to be having foals with apparently. I hope I made the right decision,” thought Green Amaranth. He then noticed everyone, except Pinkie Pie, was giving the zombie pony looks of pity, which immediately got on his nerves. “Ugh. Stop looking at me with those pitying looks.”

Surprisingly, Fluttershy was the first one to talk. “Sorry, but a-are you sure about this, G.A.? You shouldn’t let Pinkie Pie move in if you really don’t want her to,” she advised. “I-It’s not your job to support her, even if she’s pregnant with your foals.”

Nobody noticed that the party pony had stopped talking and was now looking at the shy pony.

Green Amaranth knows that Fluttershy is just being her kind self. “I know, Fluttershy, but I’m fine with it,” he said.

“But–” said the shy pony, but was then interrupted.

She had something to say. “Darling, you should really talk to somepony about this. If you don’t, it could really cause problems in the future for you,” advised Rarity. The fashion pony looked at Pinkie Pie. “For both of you.”

The zombie pony was starting to get annoyed of talking about it and just wanted to stop talking about it. “That’s what I was planning on doing after all this. Duh,” he thought. “I will. Soon. Anyway, I need you all to Pinkie Promise me that none of you will ever tell anyone about this. I don’t want to be bothered about it by anyone in the town, and I’d rather Pinkie Pie keep her friends instead of losing them. You understand?”

All of them, except the party pony, were shocked.

“B-But–” said Twilight Sparkle, but was then interrupted.

Green Amaranth looked angry enough to rip them all apart, which the zombie pony was going to do soon if none of them started promising him. “Pinkie Promise me,” said the zombie pony, in a dark tone.

The way he said it had scared everyone, except Pinkie Pie, who was conversing with Pinkamena inside of her mind. So, in the end, they did the Pinkie Promise.

That had calmed Green Amaranth down. “Great. Now that we’re done discussing this, you can all leave now since telling you about our foal is why we asked you all to come here,” he said. “Me and Pinkie Pie have to discuss some stuff involving our new home and what to buy for our foal.”

“Finally. I’m outta here,” said Rainbow Dash, rudely.

Before anyone could say anything about her rude behavior, the rainbow pony left the table and flew off towards the door.

Rarity decided to say something to the zombie pony and the party pony.

“I’m sorry for asking this darling, but before we leave, what about Couples Therapy? After this incident, I think you two would need to talk to a counselor about this,” suggested the fashion pony.

The zombie pony scoffed. “And have them spread word about this to other ponies even if they promise not to? No, thanks,” he said.

She shook her head. “Absolutely not. I meant that you two shouldn’t tell them the truth but give them a lie that sounds serious enough that they could give a solution to the real problem,” advised Rarity. “Understand?”

Green Amaranth looked at Pinkie Pie. “What do you think? Should we give this a try?” he asked.

She was silent for a moment before looking up at the fashion pony. “...Okay. We’ll give Couples Therapy a try,” answered the party pony.

Rarity smiled. “Great. I’m glad to hear that you two are planning to talk out your problems,” she said. The fashion pony trotted away. “We’ll leave you two alone now. Come on, girls. I’ll take you all out to a restaurant for something to eat. My treat.”

It took a few seconds for them to leave as they stared at the zombie pony and Pinkie Pie before following after her. Green Amaranth sighed before looking at the party pony, who looked back at him.

The zombie pony decided to choose a topic to talk about before him and Pinkie Pie were going to talk about their new home and foal. “Pinkie, when the girls had arrived, I noticed that Rainbow Dash had piercings. It was pretty strange since she never had them before yesterday,” said Green Amaranth.

While the zombie pony and the party pony had been chatting with everyone, he had noticed something was off about Rainbow Dash. Her ears were pierced with a few earrings and there were like three to four piercings about the rainbow pony’s nose, which was weird, seeing as she didn’t have any piercings or earrings yesterday when the Green Amaranth last saw the rainbow pony.

She looked at him, confused. “What are you talking about, G.A.? Rainbow Dash has been wearing them even before you two first met,” answered Pinkie Pie.

The zombie pony shook his head. There was no way Green Amaranth would forget or never notice that Rainbow Dash had piercings when they first met. “Impossible. I remember that day clearly, and she wasn’t,” he said. “The only reason she would be wearing them despite me remembering that she wasn’t is if, I don’t know, another universe bled into this one again without me noticing and you not remembering. Just like what happened with the alcohol.”

Green Amaranth would’ve said more, but then the zombie pony stopped as he realized something.

The party pony looked confused now. “Is something the matter?” she asked, wondering.

The zombie pony facehoofed. “Ugh. It seems that what I just said did actually happen,” said Green Amaranth.

Pinkie Pie raised an eyebrow. “You mean the part about bleeding universes?” asked the party pony.

He nodded. “Yeah. It seems one or more universes did end up bleeding into this one,” said Green Amaranth. “Probably one where there’s alcohol, and Rainbow Dash having piercings.” The zombie pony looked serious. “It’s best we remain on our guard. Who knows what other universes could end up bleeding through and start adding stuff, changing certain ponies and events, and even mess with the past as well.”

She was silent as Pinkie Pie processed this.

“Wow. The universe has been changing and we didn't even notice,” said the killer pony, with an unsurprised tone. “What a shocker. I wonder what else might be changed?”

She realized something from Pinkamena's tone of voice. “Wait a minute. You knew everything was changing and you didn't even think to tell me?!” thought Pinkie Pie.

The killer pony inwardly shrugged. “You never asked,” she answered, simply.

The party pony was about to yell at Pinkamena.

“So, for the foal’s room, I was thinking like we could paint it with the colors from the beach color palette or something like that,” he informed.

That had snapped Pinkie Pie out of her conversation with the killer pony, and she turned towards Green Amaranth. “Um, how about something different than that?” said Pinkie Pie. She smiled. “I was thinking that we should paint the room with fun colors to give it a sort of party theme.”

“We can do that for another room in the house, but if not a beach theme, then maybe a forest theme instead?” suggested the zombie pony.

After that, Green Amaranth and the party pony started arguing over what colors to paint their foal’s room.

Author's Note

Learning about the incident will have an impact on Pinkie Pie's friendship with her friends.

Green Amaranth doesn't want to abandon his foals, so he'll help Pinkie Pie raise them. Also, he knows she's repentant and regrets what she did to him. It'll take time until the zombie pony can forgive her.

Another universe has bled into their universe, and the only ones who are noticing the changes are Green Amaranth and Pinkamena. The universe that bled into their universe was the askfirestarterspitfire AU.
