My Little Pony: Equestrian Life In another World
Chapter 3: Getting to know one another and a love stronger than friendship
Previous ChapterNext ChapterOn a late night, Thomas was still fast asleep in his bed, but then he began to toss and turn. For he was having a deep dream. He dreamt that he was back…at his old home? But something wasn’t right. He saw that there was a police officer standing in front of his mother, who told him of what had happened. He couldn’t make it out, for he was standing right behind her, but she looked still, something he’d expect from her.
After the police officer left, he saw his dad coming.
“Who the hell was that?” said Thomas’ dad. But his mom still remained silent. “Hey, I’m talking to you.”
She was silent for a moment, then said “Thomas is dead. The police found his body at the lake house.”
“Pff, seriously?” Said his dad without a care in the world. “Knew that kid was useless since birth.”
Suddenly, Thomas’ mother gave him a hard punch, which knocked his dad against the wall, which surprised Thomas, but not as surprised as the father was.
“How…dare you.” Said Thomas’ mother when the tears began to run down. “Our son is dead and you call him useless. But so far I see, the only one who is useless is you.”
“Excuse me?” said Thomas’ father, feeling insulted.
“You recklessly go around, gambling our money, whilst I do the hard work around here.” Said Thomas’ mother, “You may have married me, but I was also the only daughter of the Rohan family, my birthright, that you just squander for no reason at all. You never did care about the family, only the money that you squander.”
“I own it too since the day I married you.” Said Thomas’ husband.
However, …
“Not anymore.” Said Thomas’ mother. “Two things. One…”
She held up a paper and said “I already filed for a divorce.”
Thomas’ father was shocked, with his mother saying “And two…”
When all of a sudden, four guys appeared, to which shocked Thomas’ father.
“I believe you owe money to the loan sharks.” Said Thomas’ mother, “I can’t believe you tried to borrow money from them, and had the gall to use mine to hide after all these years. When I dug a little deeper, I found out about you, which is why I froze your account.”
“Wha…but…you can’t do this!!” said Thomas’ father before the loan sharks took him.
“I already did.” Said Thomas’ mother sternly.
She watched as the loan sharks took him away as he tried to break free, but their grip on him was really tight before the doors were finally closed. After they were gone, Thomas’ mother instantly broke down in tears as she sat on a couch whilst sobbing.
“Oh, Thomas.” Said Thomas’ mother, “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. I should’ve been there for you. Please…forgive me. Forgive me.”
She continued to cry with her face in her hands. Thomas on the other hand had shed a few tears himself as he too was partially overwhelmed by what he had seen.
“Did it come to a surprise to you?”
Thomas turned around and was surprised to see…an Alicorn? But she looked a little darker, though she had the same aura as Celestia.
“Wha…who are you?” asked Thomas.
“Oh, forgive the intrusion.” Said the Alicorn, “My name is Princess Luna, Princess of the Night, as well as Celestia’s younger sister.”
“Really?” said Thomas as he got a good look at her. “Huh, I can see that. The stars really do bring out the blue of your eyes.”
Princess Luna giggled at that and said “Thank you.”
Thomas then took another look and said “What is all this?”
“This happens to be what is currently happening in your world.” Said Princess Luna. “When my sister told me what Twilight told her, I was rather surprised to hear what you have been through. So, I used my magic to pierce the veil to see what had transpired after you were gone. And as you can see, this is happening about a few hours before you slumbered.”
Thomas took another look at this. He was feeling his stomach being twisted just from seeing this.
“Why are you showing me this?” said Thomas.
“To show that even though you had a rough childhood,” said Princess Luna, “At least one parent still loved you for who you are and not what they expect you to. She had wished every day that she could spend time with you, and she regretted on not knowing sooner of how you felt. Only did your passing show her how much she regretted on not doing anything.”
“I know they hid things.” Said Thomas, “But I wish they were more straight forward with me. And…I wish I got to spend some time with her.”
He felt a hand on his shoulder, gaining his attention, revealing Luna as she held onto it:
“Could…” began Thomas, “Could I say goodbye to her, at least?”
“You can,” said Princess Luna, “But I’m afraid it would only be temporary, as my magic is not strong enough to keep the veil pierced. And if I keep it open for too long, it would end up having a disastrous consequence, so I can only grant you ten minutes if need be.”
Thomas nodded and said “I understand.”
Luna used her magic to open a portal of sorts. Thomas swallowed his fear and stepped through it. The moment he did, he was right in front of his mother, who was still crying with her face buried in her hands. Thomas then stood on his one knee and foot and held onto her hands.
“Mom,” said Thomas, “Mom, please don’t cry.”
Thomas’ mom briefly stopped and looked ahead, and was shocked to see who was before her.
“T-Thomas?” muttered his mother.
Within a split second, Thomas and his mother hugged one another, with the both of them standing up.
“Mom, I’m so sorry.” Said Thomas.
“Don’t, Thomas, please.” Said his mother, with the two of them breaking the hug. “I’m the one who should be asking for forgiveness. I costed you what you really wanted. All we did was make you study and train, but we never gave you a reason why, and I’m so ashamed that I couldn’t have spent more time with you.”
“And I’m sorry I didn’t say anything.” Said Thomas, “I should’ve tried harder. And I wish I could’ve stayed a bit longer, but I’m afraid I came to say goodbye.”
His mother was shocked to say the least, and looked at him and asked “But why?”
“I’m actually on a time limit.” Said Thomas, “I gained a friend who said that she could help me talk to you one last time, but I can’t remain long, for they needed to keep the balance and to keep our worlds secret from one another. And I can’t go back because I literally drowned, and that once I died…”
“You can never go back.” Said his mother, to which surprised Thomas. His mother couldn’t help but smile and said “I always wondered when it will happen.”
“What?” said Thomas, “Mom, what are you saying?”
“Remember when I mentioned about our family?” asked his mother, to which he nodded, then she said “Remember when I mentioned that our family was not from around?”
Thomas thought about it, but for a split second, he realized in shock and said “Our family…came from Equestria?”
“That’s right.” Said Thomas’ mother, “Our family was of great importance long ago. But something happened that made us leave. We arrived before the days of World War I. We continued to try to find a way to uphold our family legacy because we knew that one day when the time came, we would one day return there.”
She sighed in sadness and said “I just didn’t think it would come this way, though.”
“But why didn’t you tell me?” said Thomas.
“I really wanted to,” said Thomas’ mother, “Believe me, I wanted to, you were the first person I wanted to tell. But because of the work I do, it keeps robbing me the one thing I should’ve been there for the most. For you. And if your father hadn’t gotten in the way…I would’ve been there for you when you needed me the most. I have no excuse for it either. I’m sorry.”
“I’m sorry, too mom.” Said Thomas. “I wish I could’ve done better.”
He then looked at her and said “And about our family, I have so many questions. A man also came by and gave a journal that belonged to Achilles Rohan. I thought it was only a story.”
“It isn’t sweetie.” Said Thomas’ mother, “I once thought that way too, but I had seen it when I was a child. Though temporary, I know now who we are and where we came from. And I’m sure that in time, you’ll be able to find those answers to your questions.”
Thomas couldn’t help but smile, but then he noticed his left hand was about to fade.
“Aw crud, my time’s almost up.” Said Thomas, then he looked at his mom and said “And promise me one thing mom.”
“Anything.”
“Live your life to the fullest and live it well.” Said Thomas, “And when the time comes if either of us wound up in the afterlife, we would meet each other there again, and we can share our stories of what we’ve been through. And when we do, there will be no doubts and no regrets.”
“I promise, Thomas.” Said his mother. “And promise me you’ll do our family proud, no matter where you are.”
“I promise too, mom.” Said Thomas with a teary smile.
Thomas and his mother shared one last hug with one another. The moment they broke it, Thomas had already begun to fade.
“Goodbye mom.” Said Thomas, “We’ll meet again someday. And now that I’ll always love you.”
Thomas’ mother also smiled and said “I love you too, Thomas. I look forward till we meet again.”
And thus, Thomas had vanished from his old home and had returned to the dream realm with Luna. Thomas stood there with tears in his eyes, then hugged Luna, much to the Princess of the Night’s surprise, but accepted it nonetheless.
“Thank you, Luna.” Said Thomas before they broke it. “I really needed that.”
“You are welcome, Thomas.” Said Princess Luna with a smile of her own.
“And…” said Thomas before he looked at Princess Luna, “If you want, we can always talk more whilst in the dream realm. That way you could know more of my kind. And honestly, I find it relaxing talking to you. You’re quite the conversationalist.”
Luna giggled again and said “I would love to have a friend to talk to in the dream realm. And also in the waking world, if you wish.”
“Oh, most definitely.” Said Thomas.
“I must be off,” said Princess Luna, “But we shall speak again soon once time permits me.”
“I look forward to it.”
Soon enough, Thomas woke up for a brief moment and looked around. He couldn’t help but smile as he felt like he somewhat made a new friend in Equestria. He soon fell back asleep, wondering what the next day might bring.
************************************************************************************************
“Are you sure about this?” asked Thomas as he felt really nervous.
“Trust me Thomas,” said Twilight, “I know that they’ll like you, you just have to give them a chance.”
“If they give me one.” Said Thomas, “I remembered what Spike told me that one time when Zacora came over and they were instantly afraid of her without even talking to her, because they judged her for her appearance.”
He then mumbled, “Something that’s also been a big issue in my world.”
“I see.” Said Twilight as she was concerned over what he had just said, but shook it off, “But don’t worry, they’ve learned their lesson and I know you’ll get along great with them.”
“Though I thought Spike and Starlight were going to join us too.” Said Thomas.
“Oh, I sent both Spike and Starlight on a few errands today, so it should only be the two of us and my friends.”
Soon enough, the two of them arrived at the picnic area, where he spotted the rest of Twilight’s friends. He saw Rarity among them, but he didn’t recognize the other four. One who had a rainbow mane, but also had an athlete build. Then there’s another with a country hat, which Thomas could guess would be a farmer, then there was another with pink hair, and he could tell she was very shy, whilst the other also had a pink mane and appeared to be very poofy, and from what he could tell, she was the most active one of the groups. Thankfully, Twilight showed you via pictures. One with the Rainbow hair is Rainbow Dash, one with the hat is Applejack, the shy one is Fluttershy, and the other one is Pinkie Pie.
“Well, howdy Twi,” said Applejack, “Mighty glad y’all could join us.”
“Though uh…what’s that thing next to you?” asked a curious Rainbow Dash.
Pinkie gasped and instantly hugged him whilst saying “Is this a new friend?!”
“Uh, you could say that.” Said Thomas nervously.
“Um…hello.” Said Fluttershy nervously.
“Hi.” Said Thomas once Pinkie released him, then he looked at Rarity and said “Oh, Rarity, I never got the chance to thank you for the new wardrobe. You really are a lifesaver.”
“Oh, my pleasure, Thomas darling.” Said Rarity.
“Wait, you know him?” asked a confused Rainbow.
“Of course,” said Rarity, “Thomas requested on a wardrobe that he desperately needed. What with his, ahem, current attire only being swim trunks.”
“Swim trunks?” said a confused Applejack. “How come y’all have only one pair of clothing?”
“Trying to go all natural?” teased Rainbow.
“Rainbow Dash!!” scolded Rarity.
“Well, I didn’t exactly have any other clothing on me when I died.” Said Thomas.
The others, minus Twilight, were all startled by this when they looked at him.
“Pardon,” said Rarity as she tried to make sense of it. “Did you say, died?”
Pinkie pinched Thomas, making him yelp, with Pinkie saying “You look alive to me.”
“I am right now, yes.” Said Thomas, “But in case you wonder, I’m actually known as a human. Or otherwise known as Homo Sapiens. We come from a planet called Earth, where over billions of humans live. Young and old, big, or small, every human looks more different than the other. We live our lives one day at a time.”
The girls were surprised to hear the world where he comes from.
“Incredible.” Said Rarity, “What else do humans have over there?”
“Like, what kind of magic and Cutie Mark do you use and have?” said Pinkie Pie.
“Oh, we don’t have magic in our world.” Said Thomas.
“What?!” exclaimed the Mane 5.
“Yeah, in our world, magic is considered folklore and myth, thinking it’s nothing but superstition. Heck, I didn’t even think dimensional travel was possible. As for Cutie Marks…what’s that?”
“Oh, it’s this!!” said Pinkie Pie as she pulled down part of her skirt, showing the side of her posterior, as well as her Cutie Mark. Thomas blushed madly at this. For a random girl was showing part of her ass at him.
“Pinkie Pie!!” shouted the others before they quickly covered it up.
“Pinkie, we do not show our flanks to a random stallion!!” shouted Rarity.
“Sorry.” Said Pinkie with a squee.
“So…what’s so special about them?” said Thomas, desperately wanting to change the subject.
“They help us show our talents.” Said Twilight. “Mine is Magic, Rainbow is fast flying, Applejack is good at farming, Rarity is a well-known fashion designer, Pinkie specializes at parties, and Fluttershy specialized in animal caretaking.”
“Huh, that’s really interesting.” Said Thomas.
“And what about you?” asked Applejack, “How do y’all know what your special talent is.”
“We don’t, we just do.” Said Thomas. “Sometimes we experiment with what we’re good at, then afterwards, we work hard to perfect them, and in time, we also use what we’ve learned. Not through magic, but from the sweat of our brows and the strengths of our backs, as well as hard educational work.”
He then looked at Rainbow with a quirked eye and said “Seeing that one of you lacked any.”
Rainbow was suddenly in his face and said “What’s that supposed to mean?! I had my education!!”
Thomas suddenly smirked and said “Was that before, or after you put laxatives in the teacher’s drinks, which got you expelled before you had your degree?”
Rainbow gawked in shock as her jaw dropped, which surprised the rest of her friends.
“Wha…how did you…?!” said Rainbow in shock.
“Fluttershy, who told Twilight, who told Spike, who told me.” Said Thomas.
Twilight groaned loudly and slapped her forehead whilst saying “I can’t believe he blabbed. He promised not to say anything.”
“Did you make him promise not to say anything?” asked Thomas.
Twilight blushed and slapped her head in embarrassment, for she can’t believe she didn’t think of that.
“Anyway,” said Thomas, “As for how I got here. After I graduated from College…”
“College?” asked Rarity.
“Uh, picture this.” Said Thomas, “It's... let's just say it's a type of school. Preschool is a beginning school for toddlers. Then they move on to Elementary Schools, there it's kindergarten to eighth grade. Then they move on to high school. Ninth to twelfth grade. And it's their choice if they want to go to college after they graduate high school.”
“Wait, school after school after school?” said Rainbow in disbelief, “What kind of insane world do you live in?!”
“Hey, education is very important to all of us here.” Said Thomas, “Otherwise you wouldn’t have had the grade to pass for your Wonderbolts Reserves test.”
Rainbow groaned loudly and held her head, with her saying “I’ve really gotta stop telling ponies my stories.”
“Be thankful it’s not an autobiography.” Said Thomas. “Anyway, after I graduated, I moved to a Lake House far away from my family.”
“Now why would y’all leave yer family?” asked Applejack.
Thomas had a saddened look and told them what he told Princess Celestia and Twilight, which shocked the rest of the Mane 5.
“Why in tarnation would anypony neglect their own child, like that?!” said Applejack.
“People who would rather be ignorant of their own kids rather than spend some time with them.” Said Thomas.
“But…that’s so mean.” Said Fluttershy.
Pinkie Pie suddenly bawled whilst she was crying and held onto Thomas tightly, and shouted “I can’t imagine my entire life growing up without friends.”
“Pinkie…too…tight.” Said Thomas.
“Whoops.” Said Pinkie before she let him go and he ended up landing on his posterior.
“Is she always like this?” whispered Thomas to Twilight.
“You get used to it.” Said Twilight.
“Anyway,” said Thomas, “After I went to the lake, I decided to go for a swim for a bit, until I was suddenly dragged by a whirlpool that appeared from out of nowhere and sucked me in. I somehow drowned when I was under water. Before I knew it, I washed up at a lake not far from here, that’s when Twilight found me. Although she kinda threatened me when I called her a horse, and in my defense, I did freak out whilst I was here, I mean like no one else in my position would freak out if they met another species in a different world.”
“Ah’d probably freak out too if ah met a different species.” Said Applejack.
“Not me.” Boasted Rainbow, “I’d face the dangers, head on.”
Thomas gave a deadpanned stare, but then he had a Grinch like smirk on him. He whispered something to Twilight. She blinked in surprise, and looked at him confusingly, which he nodded. But nonetheless, she complied and casted a spell.
“Even this?” said Thomas.
Rainbow took a good look at him and suddenly blinked in shock. For Thomas was having sunflower petals on him and he was trying to look as cute as possible, which confused the others greatly, with Thomas suddenly singing in a cute tone.
We are such happy flowers
We will now sing for hours
Aren't we unbearably cute?
Watch me solo on jazz flute
Thomas then played the flute whilst acting innocent, with Rainbow suddenly screaming in fear as she hid behind Applejack whilst shaking. Everyone stared at Rainbow dumbfounded and surprise, causing them to snicker and barely being able to keep their laughter in.
“So,” said Applejack in a teasing tone, “Y’all can take danger, but y’all can’t take cuteness?”
Rainbow blinked in shock and looked at the others, realizing that her secret has been exposed and had a look of embarrassment on it.
“Honestly,” said Thomas as he tossed the flower and flute away, “What the heck do you have against cuteness?”
“Cuteness isn’t exactly Rainbow’s thing.” Said Fluttershy.
“Right,” said Thomas, “Cause the only one who works the cuteness well is Twilight, and she’s Adorkable when she does that.”
Thomas instantly slapped his mouth shut with both his hands, for he didn’t realize that he had just called Twilight adorkable. Everyone else stared at him surprised, whilst Twilight blushed heavily whilst also being surprised at the same time too.
“So, uh…moving on.” Said Twilight.
The two of them tried to change the subject, with Pinkie whispering to the others, “Is it obvious that Thomas likes Twilight and Twilight likes Thomas?”
“Oh, yeah.” Said the rest of the Mane 5.
******************************************************************************************
“So, this is the portal?”
From within the library, both Thomas and Twilight were standing in front of the mirror, which Twilight said would lead straight to Canterlot High, where one of her reformed friends, Sunset Shimmer.
“That’s right.” Said Twilight, “A unicorn named Starswirl the Bearded created these portals to other worlds. Though nothing he tried worked, so he decided to use these mirrors as a gateway to travel to different worlds. However, he theorized that it would open once every thirty moons.”
“No, it wouldn’t.” said Thomas quickly.
“Huh?” said Twilight.
“See those runes by the mirror?” said Thomas as he pointed them out. “Those Runes say that the mirror is charged up at full power when the moon is full. And given that he had already found another mirror on the other side, he also must’ve found a way to cast a spell there. Now instead of the portal being open for every two years, it opens up once a month.”
Twilight slowly looked at him, then to the portal, the repeated the process, and her jaw dropped as she kept doing it, but now at a fast pace.
“Wha…how…?” muttered Twilight.
“Duh, I read an old history about how unicorns used to use Runes to do their magic before they perfected the spell using their horns. Starswirl must’ve used the same spell to open a portal.” Said Thomas, “Seriously, even a dead brained monkey could see that. And I’m surprised Starswirl didn’t see that it was a permanent spell when he casted it.”
Twilight’s eye rapidly twitched, and within a split second, she screeched so loud, the entire country heard her screech as the ground was shaking at the same time.
And from three different scenes, after the scream and ground shaking ceased, Luna, Cadance and Starlight asked “Twilight freaking out over something obvious again?”
“Yup.” Said Celestia, Shining Armor and Spike at the same time.
******************************************************************************************
Soon enough, the two of them entered the portal. But soon enough, they landed on the other side, with Thomas feeling very dizzy.
“Oh, major wipeout.” Said Thomas as he slowly got up.
“You okay?”
The moment Thomas took a good look at Twilight, to saying that he was surprised was exaggerated. For he saw a girl about his height with a familiar skin tone and a familiar hairstyle. She was also wearing a blouse with a bowtie, a purple skirt and what appeared to be, what did they call them, heel boots? Meh, fashion wasn’t his strong suit. He was surprised to see Twilight as a human.
“T-Twilight.” Said Thomas as Twilight also looked at him. “I…never realized.”
“You’re younger.” Said Twilight surprised.
“Wait, what?” said Thomas.
He looked at the statue and noticed the mirror. When he went over, he was surprised by what he was seeing. He appeared younger, possibly a senior. His skin had gotten a little brighter and smoother. His hair was also combed back and covered in gel, so much so that he there was sunlight bouncing off of it. He was wearing the same clothes as before, a pair of jeans, a white shirt, and a brown jacket.
“Huh, didn't see that coming,” said Thomas to himself. To his surprise, he sounded younger too.
“Well, from what Sunset and I realized,” said Twilight as she explained, “The portal does kind of make those who go through it older or younger. For example, when I came here, I ended up being my friend Sunset’s age, but in Equestria, she’s a few years older than me.”
“Huh,” muttered Thomas as he looked between the portal and the school, “It’s like the portal somehow knows where it is and adjusts its users accordingly.”
Twilight nodded and said “That’s what I also thought too. But then again it’s because of Equestrian Magic, that it continues to grow and evolve. It’s always unpredictable.”
“After what I’ve seen in the past few weeks, I can believe it.” Said Thomas, “So, where do we go next?”
“Well, from what Sunset told me before I got here,” said Twilight, “She and her friends are currently at the Sweet Shoppe, Equestria’s version of Sugarcube Corner.”
“Anything I should know about them?” asked Thomas.
“It’s a bit of a long story.” Said Twilight, “Why don’t we walk and I’ll explain everything.”
“Sounds like a plan.” Said Thomas, until they suddenly heard a grunt.
When they turned around, they saw it was none other than Spike that was with them.
“Spike?” said Twilight surprised, “What are you doing here?”
“Wanted to visit too.” Said Spike, “I mean, I always wanted to talk to my counterpart more often.”
Thomas took a look, and to his surprise, Spike really did become a dog. Within a split second, Thomas laughed again whilst holding his gut. Spike suddenly remembered what they talked about since they first met, causing him to blush in embarrassment and grumble. Twilight rolled her eyes, but realized that Spike had it coming, considering that he just jumped through the portal without permission.
**************************************************************************************************
Soon enough, the two of them, ahem, three of them, walked down the street with Twilight explaining everything.
“So let me see if I have this right,” said Thomas, “Sunset Shimmer was once the student of Princess Celestia and wanted to be a Princess too, but she got impatient and ended up rebelling against her teacher, then ran away to this world and went to that school we passed, and she drove everyone apart just so that she could be in power. But when you came along, you united five girls, who look like your friends back home, revealed the truth to them, and when Sunset took your crown, she turned into a monster and you lot stopped her. And after the magic purged the darkness from her, she ended up being a normal person and regretted of what she did, and she chose to stay behind to make up for her mistakes?”
“That’s right.” Said Spike, “And after that, the Dazzlings shortly came along and tried to take over the school, but Twilight and I came back and with the girls, even with Sunset’s help, we were able to beat them, with Sunset finally being able to redeem herself.”
“And last we heard from what Sunset told us,” said Twilight, “She helped my counterpart when she was corrupted with Equestrian Magic. Afterwards they went to Camp Everfree. They helped saved a friend and that place from being sold, and have gained new abilities too.”
“And they encountered a ton of things,” said Thomas, “And from what you told me, Sunset kept getting herself in trouble because of her temper and impatience.”
“That’s pretty much it.” Said Spike.
Thomas however, pondered over why Sunset acted like this. However, after hearing all that from Twilight and Spike, he was able to make out why she really acted this way.
“Oh, we’re here.” Said Twilight, making Thomas notice the shop.
The moment they walked in, Thomas noticed the group and immediately recognized them. Twilight was right, despite them looking human, their likeness is truly uncanny.
“Whoa,” said Thomas as he couldn’t believe his eyes, “The resemblance is quite uncanny. The facial features are somewhat different, and minus the pony ears, tails, and wings and horns to some, they almost look completely identical.”
“I know what you mean,” said Twilight before she giggled, “I felt the same way when I first met them. Though I didn’t spend enough time with my counterpart, I could tell she’s really smart. As well as one thing.”
“Oh?” said Twilight whilst looking at him curiously.
“You both don’t know when not to poke your nose into other people’s business.” Said Thomas with a mischievous smirk.
“Hey!!” said Twilight, as if she was feeling offended.
“No, he’s got you there, Twilight.” Said Spike. “Nightmare Moon, Pinkie Pie, the Friendship problem, so on and so forth.”
“Let’s just say hi to the others.” Said Twilight as she wanted to change the subject.
They went over to the girls, with the human version of Pinkie Pie noticing Twilight. She gasped and said “Hey look, it’s Princess Twilight, and she brought a new friend!!”
The girls looked at the door’s direction and saw Twilight coming in, with Thomas in tow.
“Twilight.” Said Sunset as she walked over and hugged her, “It’s so good to see you again.”
“Good to see you too.” Said Twilight.
“So, who’s yer new friend here?” said the human version of Applejack.
“Oh, this is Thomas Rohan.” Said Twilight, which confused some of them.
“That’s an odd name.” said the human version of Rarity.
“Well, that was my name from where I’m from.” Said Thomas. “Besides, like you’re ones to talk.”
He pointed at Pinkie and said “For example, like Pinkie Pie. What, she’s pink that’s baked in a pie?”
Everyone else was surprised, however, Pinkie laughed at that and said “Now that would be very funny.”
“Or Shining Armor.” Said Thomas, “He’s not shiny, he’s not even wearing any armor.”
Both Spikes stifled their laughter through snorting, for the way he says it was very funny, with Spike saying “You know, he does have a point.”
“Or like Spitfire,” said Thomas, which surprises Rainbow, “What, she spits out fire every time whenever she talks?”
Everyone else was baffled by what he said, with Thomas saying “Trust me, if you were where I’m from, they’d say the same thing.”
“Where you’re from?” said a confused Rainbow.
“Thomas is from another human realm.” Said Twilight, which caused the girls to gasp.
“You’re from another world?!” exclaimed the human version of Twilight, or as her friends would sometimes call her, Sci-Twi, as she zipped over and was nearly right in front of his face.
“Uh, yeah?” said Thomas as he tried to regain his composure, ‘I’m surprised Twilight wasn’t like this when I first met her.’ Said Thomas from within his own thoughts.
“This, is, amazing!!” said Twilight in excitement, “What’s the difference between our world?! How did you get to this one?! Are there similarities between our worlds?! Are there…?!”
“Whoa, calm down, Twilight.” Said Sci-Twi’s dog, which was none other than this world’s version of Spike. “You’re doing it again.”
Sci-Twi stopped and blushed before giggling nervously, “Oh, right, my bad.”
“Eh, it’s cool.” Said Thomas, “You were just excited is all.”
“Did you arrive in this world?” asked Sunset.
“Not really,” said Twilight, “He arrived in Equestria about half a month ago.”
“He did?” said Sunset surprised, “How did he get here?”
“I drowned in a whirlpool.” Said Thomas, much to the others’ shock. After he took his seat, Thomas told them his full version of how he got to Equestria, how Twilight took him in, and how he slowly became Twilight’s friends. “And that’s how I got here.”
“Oh, you poor dear.” Said Rarity in concern.
“Ah can’t believe yer parents were like that.” Said Applejack.
“I…know how that feels.” Said Sci-Twi, thinking about her time with Abacus Cinch.
“But still,” said Rainbow, “Look at the bright side, at least you have a new home and friends that care about you. Heck, from what I’m seeing, Princess Twilight’s already accepted you without a second thought.”
“Even though when she nearly wanted to beat me to a pulp when I blurted out that horses can’t talk?”
The girls were silent by this and looked at Twilight, who blushed and smiled sheepishly and nodded.
“Uh, yeah, that too.” Said Rainbow.
“You know,” said Thomas, “You girls remind me a lot of your counterparts.”
“We do?” said Fluttershy.
“Oh yeah, in fact, I brought pictures.” Said Thomas, which surprised Twilight.
“You brought pictures?”
“Yeah,” said Thomas, “When I heard that you were going to another world, and you mentioned them, I asked your friends if I could take pictures. To show the Rainbooms what they looked like as Ponies, whilst I show your friends what they’d look like as humans. You didn’t think about that?”
Twilight was baffled and didn’t know how to respond to it, with Spike also being dumbfounded by it. Thomas took out a few pictures he was able to get, thanks to Pinkie Pie from Ponyville.
“We’ll start with you.” Said Thomas as he handed Fluttershy a picture.
She took a good look and to her surprise, she saw what she looks like as an anthro pony, especially her wings.
“Oh my,” muttered Fluttershy, “I’m a Pegasus in that world?”
“That you are.” Said Thomas, “Though the difference between the two of you, she lives near the edge of the forest in her cottage outside of Ponyville. From there she looks after all sorts of animals. Heck, she even tamed a Manticore by being nice and stood up to a dragon.”
The girls’ jaws dropped from hearing that, even Fluttershy was surprised by this.
“And then there’s her.” Said Thomas as he presented Pinkie with her photo.
They took a good look at her counterpart, and saw that she was an Earth Pony…
“Is it just me, or does her boobs look a little bigger?” asked Rainbow.
“Rainbow!!” exclaimed Rarity.
“What, I’m just asking!!” defended Rainbow.
“Pinkie’s counterpart is also like her.” Said Thomas, “She lives with the Cake family and works at their bakery. She’s also a number one-party planner in the town, knows everybody there too. Well, besides Cheese Sandwich that is.”
“Who?” said the Rainbooms confusingly.
“The male version of Pinkie Pie.” Said Thomas. They were suddenly silent, with Thomas saying in a deadpanned tone, “Okay, that sounds so wrong to say that out loud.”
After everyone nodded in agreement, Thomas moved on to the next one, one of Applejack. She looked at the photo and was surprised to see what she looked like.
“Like Pinkie, your counterpart is an Earth Pony.” Said Thomas, “But her family history is different. Back when her grandmother was a teenager, she and her family helped found Ponyville. Afterwards, the town grew and many family members founded more farms along the way. Your counterpart helps farm the apple orchid. Heck, she’s so strong, I once saw her knock down a forty-foot tree with her own hooves, as well as a three-ton rock.”
Applejack whistled impressed, for her counterpart sure must be something. Thomas then brought out a photo of Rarity. Although, she was surprised to see that she has a horn on her forehead.
“In this world, your counterpart is a Unicorn,” said Thomas to Rarity, “She uses magic like Princess Twilight, but she also has her own boutique, as well as a place to live above it in Ponyville. Then a while later, she opened her shop in Canterlot, which is Equestria’s capitol and also city for the high class. Though she had hit a few snags every now and then, she was able to open it with success. Though last we heard, she’ll soon be planning to go to Manehattan to see if there is a potential shop to open there.”
“So, I….er, she will own three shops?!” exclaimed Rarity when she became excited, then said in a singsong tone, “a-mazing!!”
Thomas couldn’t help but roll his eyes. ‘Definitely Rarity’s counterpart.’
“So, where do I fit in?” said Rainbow in excitement as she was excited.
Suddenly, Thomas couldn’t help but smirk and showed Rainbow a picture, but to her shock, she saw herself wearing a dress.
“Wait,” said Rainbow, “I’m a Nambi, pamby, Princess?!!”
“Why yes,” said Beau, “The fairest of them all.”
Twilight looked at him confused, but then saw a smirk he was hiding from underneath his lips, causing her to stifle hear laughter.
“And the surprising part.” Said Thomas, before he leaned in and whispered “You’re also married to Zephyr Breeze.”
Rainbow widened her eyes in shock, then rapidly twitched, and ended up raising her fists in the air.
“Nooooooooo!!!!!” exclaimed Rainbow as she didn’t want to believe that.
She suddenly heard a snicker, which then blew off into full blown laughter. When she looked, she saw that it came from Thomas and Twilight, who were laughing their butts off over her reaction. Even the rest of the Rainbooms were confused by this.
“Oh man, you should’ve seen the look on your face.” Said Thomas as he kept on laughing, soon the others caught on and laughed along too. Rainbow on the other hand.
“Oh, ha, ha.” Muttered Rainbow whilst crossing her arms, “Very funny.”
“Oh, come on, lighten up Rainbow,” said Spike, “After all the pranks you pulled on your friends, you know it was bound to bounce back at you like that sooner or later, right?”
Rainbow them grumbled and mumbled, “Yeah, I guess.”
“Anyway,” said Thomas, “This is the real photo.”
He showed her a photo of herself flying, which was no doubt taken by Rainbow herself, showing how fast she was flying.
“Like Fluttershy, you’re a Pegasus.” Said Thomas, “Your counterpart is one of the fastest flyers in all of Equestria, faster than any Pegasus alive in fact. She’s also the Captain of Ponyville’s weather, managing the weather like rain, snow, wind, and so on. She also dreams of being a member of the Wonderbolts, home to Equestria’s greatest flyers. She first joined as a cadet, and thanks to her friends helping her, she was able to help study for a test, now she’s a reserved member, meaning she’s one step closer to becoming a full-time member.”
Rainbow sighs in relief, saying “That’s a relief, I thought my counterpart was going to be lame.”
“Well, there’s something you do have in common,” said Thomas, “You both have egos the size of a city.”
“Hey!!” exclaimed Rainbow.
“No, it’s true.” Said Twilight, “Whenever things happen, she tend to go overboard, take things too far and sometimes she bragged about being the best constantly. Not to mention there was a time she didn’t want to read Daring Do because she thought books were for eggheads.”
“Really?!” exclaimed Rainbow in shock, with the others just as surprised.
“And I assume you lot had the same experience?” said Thomas with a smirk.
Suddenly, the Rainbooms thought out loud one by one.
“Well, there was the battle of the bands.” Thought Applejack.
“Then in the movie studio.” Thought Rarity.
“Then with Juniper.” Thought Applejack.
“Then at Spring Break.” Said Pinkie Pie, who then glared at her and said “And ended up getting me banned from the buffet too.”
“Okay, I get it, I have a big ego!!” exclaimed Rainbow, who then groaned and mumbled, “Why can’t I ever let things go or down?”
“Eh, pride tends to do that.” Said Beau, “Trust me, saw it plenty of times growing up on my world over the years. The only thing we can do is swallow that pride and do what’s right for the good of others.”
Beau leaned back and said “And to quote a character from my world, ‘It gets tolerable’, meaning you’d get used to it overtime.”
“You think so?” asked Rainbow.
“Got used to you, didn’t we?” said Beau with a teasing smirk.
This caused Rainbow and the others to laugh a bit. He looked at Sci-Twi and said “Plus I don’t think there’s any need to explain for you, considering I know how much you and Princess Twilight have in common. You both study hard, you work hard, you’re a genius…”
Both of them smiled with pride…
“And you both don’t know when to stop poking your nose into other people’s business.”
Both of them blinked in shock about that, causing both Spikes to laugh out loud hysterically.
“Oh, he’s so got you there, Twilight!!” exclaimed Dog Spike between laughs.
“That’s so true!!” exclaimed Dragon Spike before the two of them stopped.
“Excuse me?!” said Princess Twilight.
“What’s that supposed to mean?!” said Sci-Twi.
Both Spikes then deadpanned as they couldn’t believe that they had forgotten so easily.
“Nightmare Moon? Pinkie’s Pinkie senses? The Friendship Report? The Crystal Empire? Moondancer?” said Dragon Spike.
“The stuff that happened at CHS before the Friendship Games?” said Dog Spike.
Both of them blinked, then giggled sheepishly.
“Okay, good point.”
“Ditto.”
“But the rest of you also have similarities, but also differences too.” Said Thomas.
The girls looked at one another, then to him as they said “We do?”
“That’s right.” Said Thomas. “For starters…”
“Pinkie Pie and her pony counterpart love to arrange and plan parties, making cakes and can do the impossible. Only difference is, Pinkie works at a local diner temporarily whilst her pony counterpart works at Sugarcube Corner, a shop that makes cakes. And she’s really good at her job too. In fact, from what Twilight told me, she also has a secret party planning cave for everyone in town and likes to throw parties, whether birthdays, anniversaries and so on.”
“Oooh, she sounds fun.” Said Pinkie and said “I wonder if she and I will exchange notes for a party planning cave?”
“Then there’s Applejack and her counterpart. Both of them are honest and work at the farms and are strong. Differences, Applejack’s pony counterpart works at a farm with nearly over 200 trees and has raw strength, whilst she on the other hand works at a farm with only about more than fifty trees and she uses her geode for that kind of power.”
“That’s true.” Said Applejack, until…
“And twice as stubborn when you didn’t want to help Sunset to redeem herself, or that you automatically thought she was Anon a miss without realizing that she was also being framed or being a victim.”
Everyone was startled by what he said, but none was more startled than Applejack. “Wha…how did ya…?”
“Observation, detail, as well as from what Twilight told me.” Said Thomas.
The girls felt uncomfortable, wondering what else he knew about. But before they could ponder any further…
“For both Rainbow and her counterpart, both of them are loyal, and have a habit of being overboard, and are fast with a large amount of stamina,” said Thomas, “The differences between them. Pony Rainbow manages the weather and can fly and aims for the Wonderbolts.”
“Wait, Wonderbolts?” said Rainbow surprised, “As in the greatest fly team in history?”
“They got it in this one too?”
“They sure do.” Said Rainbow. “Though I don’t know if I should do that, or become a professional soccer player.”
“Huh,” muttered Thomas as he could see that, but then continued afterwards. “Anyway, you on the other hand are Captain of every sports team in CHS, works at a sports store and you use your geode to go fast. Another different factor, she has pure speed, whereas you use your geode to make you go fast. Though temporary if I had to guess, considering you would probably use too much energy.”
“He does have a point.” Said Sci-Twi, with Twilight nodding in agreement.
“Rarity and her pony counterpart have the same similarities,” said Thomas, “Both of them are generous, and have great taste in fashion and notices everything in detail. Differences from them. Pony Rarity owns two, and soon three different boutiques and is her own business woman. Whilst this Rarity on the other hand works part time at the boutique and can be a way bigger drama queen and also a bit selfish and obsessive.”
“I beg your pardon?!” exclaimed Rarity, feeling insulted at the same time.
“Need we remind of you of that incident at the Battle of the Bands and Equestria land?” said Applejack.
Rarity winced at that, not wanting to remember those two events.
“Fluttershy and her pony counterpart’s similarities are that they love and take care of animals. And wants to help them and are uncommonly kind to many around them and have a pet rabbit.” Said Thomas, “The difference between them, is that Fluttershy’s pony counterpart understands animals and lives in a cottage outside of Ponyville and near the forest because she’s not comfortable being around others, and not to mention has a ton of freaky sowing knowledge. Whilst this Fluttershy works part time at an animal shelter and uses her geode to understand the animals and is a whizz at math.”
Fluttershy giggled and said “That’s true, and it was really amusing when Trixie asked one of my bird friends to be her tutor when she thought I was cheating.”
Rainbow snickered at that, for she did have a point.
“So, you see, you lot do have so much in common, you just haven’t realized it yet.” Said Thomas, then he looked at Sunset. “Then there’s you.”
“Uh, yes?” said a confused Sunset.
“Miss getting angry and losing her cool.” Said Thomas.
“Meaning?” said Sunset as if she felt she was being insulted.
“I know the source of your anger.” Said Thomas, which surprised everyone in the room.
“I’m sorry, the source of her anger?” asked Rarity.
“That’s right.” Said Thomas, “It’s like this…”
He began to explain everything.
“Sunset’s anger stems from desires of her not being able to become a Princess and that it would never come true, and whenever she tries something, she always takes shortcuts, and because of that she became so unfocused, she always gets angry.”
Some of them, even Princess Twilight and Spike were a little surprised to hear that.
“Until her friends came into the picture.” Said Thomas, which surprised the others. “She went to take advise from councilors and other adults, wanting, to be the best and supportive friend she could ever be. So, she sometimes channel that anger and puts it into protective instincts. Every outburst whenever something happens, is her wanting to protect her friends.”
Thomas then concluded, “In fact, she loves them so much that the thought of anything bad happening to them, no matter who’s responsible, infuriates her.”
Everyone was shocked and surprised to hear this, but not as shocked and surprised Sunset were at the same time.
“Wow,” said Pinkie, “You’re really good.”
Sunset cleared her throat, for she was deep down surprised that someone had revealed why she was like this, even she herself was surprised.
“Guess that’s why you and Twilight seem to have much in common too.” Said Sunset.
“Oh, there’s a big difference between me and her.” Said Thomas.
“What’s that?” asked Spike.
“She’s twice as adorkable whenever she studies.” Said Thomas before he instantly slapped his mouth shut again in shock.
Everyone stares at Thomas surprised, with Twilight blushing madly at this again and looked away. Thomas then groaned and slammed his head onto the table, for he couldn’t believe he said it again. It’s twice that he made that mistake again. Twice.
The Rainbooms noticed something, with Sunset whispering, “It’s clear those two like each other, don’t they?”
“Oh yeah.” Said the Rainbooms, even the two Spikes.
*********************************************************************************************
Two weeks later, after their visit with Sunset and the Rainbooms, things have gone pretty smoothly for Thomas as he was enjoying his stay in Equestria. And during that time, his relationship with Twilight had nothing been but the greatest. The two of them were pretty much inseparable due to all the time they spent together in the library and going over the many books as well as the trip over the town. And during that time, Ponyville warmed up to him as they could see he really wasn’t that bad after all.
Since it was a nice day, Twilight decided to take Thomas on a picnic out near the lake. The same lake where the two of them first met a month ago. During that time, the two of them were talking, laughing, and admiring the scenery. So much, that Twilight decided to lean against him. Thomas on the other hand, found himself growing attached to Twilight. Not just because she’s cute, but because she’s also smart and values her friends. If that’s not a true Princess, he doesn’t know what is.
Thomas then had something on his mind and said “Hey, Twilight.”
“Hmm?” muttered Twilight as she looked at him with her purple eyes, one that he enjoyed to look at, “What is it?”
“Call me crazy, but didn’t you say there was a time you told me that you developed a crush on that other Stallion back at the Crystal Empire,” said Thomas, “Uh, Flash Sentry, was it?”
This of course made her blush, but shook it off as she spoke.
“Well…yes, that’s true,” began Twilight, “But…I didn’t really know him that well. He was a bit nice to look at, but we just didn’t’…click, if you know what I mean. Why do you ask?”
“Just curious,” shrugged Thomas, “I mean, I didn’t want to sound rude or anything, but I’m surprised that a beautiful lady such as yourself had found her prince charming, yet.”
Though Twilight was a little embarrassed, she couldn’t help but smile at the compliment.
“That’s true,” she responded, “But the truth is, it doesn’t matter if I find a prince charming. If I ever find somepony, I want it to be with somepony who’s honest, sweet, likes to read and is able to accept me for who I am and not just because I’m the Princess of Friendship.”
“Does it still sometimes bother you?” asked Thomas.
“A little bit.” Said Twilight whilst she looked down in thought. “I’ve got an eternity to find somepony. I’m sure you already know this by now, but Alicorns given the abilities of immortality, as well as keep our youth.”
Thomas thought about it, but then he asked something out of the ordinary.
“Did you ask for it?”
“What do you mean?” asked Twilight.
“You were made a Princess and you became immortal.” Said Thomas, “But that would mean that you’d end up outliving your family and friends, even watching loved ones come and go. And ask yourself the biggest questions. Will you end up giving up the immortal part so that you could live a normal life just so that you could stay with your friends?”
Twilight was surprised by this, for she didn’t give much thought to it. She looked away and looked at the lake ahead.
“I’m not going to lie, I will miss my family and friends when I grow older,” said Twilight as she had somewhat a saddened look. “But if there’s one thing I’ve learned from Princess Celestia; anypony that I choose to have as my mate will also obtain the immortality and possibly eternal youth just like me. But only if our feelings for each other are purely out of love.”
Thomas looked away for a bit, for it gave him a whole new reason and respect for Twilight. And maybe…even love too.
Suddenly, an idea popped in his head. Or rather an ironic one, which he couldn’t help but smile.
“Hey, Twilight.” Said Thomas, “It’s a perfect day for a swim, don’t you think?”
Twilight thought about it for a moment, but Thomas noticed that she was blushing.
“What?” asked Thomas.
“Sorry. It’s just…” said Twilight in an embarrassed tone, “I usually wear swimwear that don’t involve…well, bikinis. I never thought about going swimming because I sometimes feel insecure about that. And it’s been a while since I last swam.”
She looked at him bashfully and said “If I…get my bathing suit. Promise you won’t laugh?”
“Why would I laugh at that?” said Thomas with a smile, “And I’m sure that you’ll look alright in it.”
Twilight looked at him, and because of his smile, she felt encouraged and regained her confidence and she smiled back.
“Alright then,” said Twilight as she stood up, “I’ll even get your swim trunks whilst I’m at it. Wait right here.”
Within a split second, she used her magic to teleport back to the castle. As she left, he decided to wait for her. But during that time, he began to think about her, and it made him blush too. Could he be…developing feelings for her? If so, how will he tell her? Then another thought came to him; how hard it’s going to be to have her parents acknowledge that their daughter was going to be dating a human. Then he realized that he didn’t meet her parents yet. Though what he could tell, Twilight’s mother is a successful author, same with Night Light in his own way of things. And he remembered that she told him that her brother was once part of Canterlot’s guard before he moved to the Crystal Empire with his wife Cadance.
His thoughts were interrupted when Twilight came back. However, he noticed that she was blushing. And for good reason.
He noticed that she was wearing a two-piece bikini with pink stars that matched her Cutie Mark.
After Twilight gave him Thomas his Swim Trucks, she politely turned around and waited for him to get changed. Once he was able to get changed, he saw how beautiful Twilight looked in her bikini. But as he stared at her, he suddenly squinted his eyes and smirked.
“Are you…?” asked Twilight before she yelped when she felt something, or in this case someone, lifting her up as he held her bridal style.
“What are you…?!!” exclaimed Twilight before she and Thomas ended up being in the lake with a big splash. Afterwards, the two of them got up and were shivering slightly. It was cold, but they would soon get used to it. Thomas laughed a bit whilst he shivered.
“G-g-gotcha!!” said Thomas whilst he was shivering.
Twilight pouted for a bit before she smirked and splashed the water back in his face.
“Y-you jerk!!” stuttered Twilight as she tried to adjust to the temperature. Before she knew it, she ended up laughing after finding that humor, which caused Thomas to laugh with her too. Soon enough, the two of them began to have a little fun whilst in the water.
After their fun, Thomas suddenly stood a bit closer and held her cheek.
“I just can’t get over how adorable you look in that bikini, Twi.” Said Thomas whilst he stroked her cheek. Interesting enough though, she didn’t blush this time. Instead, she smiled and nuzzled into his hand as if she was a cute little kitten.
Thomas didn’t know how to respond to that as she continued to rub against the palm of his hand. However, as she did so, the action gave him an urge to do the same. Gently reaching for her hand, Thomas brought it up to her cheek and held it there. He admired the feeling of her soft fur against his skin. When all of a sudden, she ended up dunking his head in the water, causing her to laugh, within mere moments, the two of them had fun throughout the day.
After so much fun, Twilight ended up doing something unexpected.
“Gotcha!” she said whilst she was hugging him and nuzzling his cheek, which made him blush.
“This is what I call payback for all the times you embarrassed me.” Said Twilight as she looked at him in the eyes. She then pecks him on the cheek and said with a smile, “That’s for making my day less stressful and more entertaining.”
Twilight wrapped her arms around Thomas, to which he returned it slowly, for he was surprised that she did that. Though it felt good, he wondered why he did that. He decided to wait until they were back at the castle before they could say anything else.
*********************************************************************************************
After a long day, the two of them had reached the castle and went inside. From there on out, they went to Twilight’s bedroom and sat close to one another at the edge of the bed. Though the kiss was still on Thomas’ mind, he then asked her.
“Twilight,” began Thomas, “I gotta tell you something and I hope that you can be honest with me. Recently about a week ago, my feelings for you have been changing. Every time whenever we’re together, whether it’s to read, hang out with our friends, or have a picnic, it’s like I’m getting to know you a whole lot more.”
He placed his hand on top of hers.
“You value your friends, hard work, sometimes a little too hard, you’re kind and a giving pony and above all else, you’re one of the most beautiful alicorns I’ve ever met.”
Tears began to appear in the corner of her beautiful eyes, although Thomas was worried that he was a bit too hasty.
“D-Do…you really mean that?” asked Twilight.
Thomas nodded with a relieved smile.
“Yes, Twilight.” Said Thomas whilst not taking his eyes off of her, “You seem to understand the world a whole lot more than anyone I met back on my world. You’re very special to me.”
Twilight couldn’t help but tear up with happiness in her heart, causing her to throw her arms around him with a sudden hug, with her burying her face into his neck.
“I’d be lying if I said I haven’t become fond of you this past month. It’s very rare that I found somepony who loves reading just as much as I do. When you told me what you used to think of friendship, I knew there yet another thing we had in common. Though, I have to confess something about our little swim earlier...”
Thomas knew exactly what it was she was referring to.
“Yeah, I was curious about that too.” He asked, allowing the two of them to broke the hug and look at one another. “Why did you suddenly pull of that cute act and kiss me?”
Twilight blushed by the question, which didn’t surprise Thomas, considering that she knew that he was going to ask that.
“Well,” started Twilight, “Remember when you explained about how you never had a relationship with anyone back at your world, because of the girls who judged you wrongly?”
Thomas nodded, knowing what she meant.
“Well, I wanted to show you just how wrong they are. And how charming you really are…in my eyes.”
Twilight held Thomas’ hand gently, and never broke eye contact with him.
“D-Does that mean…?” asked Thomas.
Twilight nodded her head and said “I’ve actually grown attached to you, possibly even…fallen in love with you.”
She continued to smile, until she released his hand and placed them on his cheek, moving closer and gently…towards his lips.
Even though it didn’t last long, Thomas savored the soft feeling of Twilight’s lips during his first kiss with her. Since she’s already come clean, Thomas believed it was time for him to do the same.
“I’m going to be completely honest with you, Twilight.” Said Thomas as he gently placed his hands on her shoulders, “I’ve actually fallen in love with you too. And if you let me, I want to prove to you that I will never betray you.”
Twilight smiled and nodded, before the two of them leaned in and connected their lips again. This time, it lasted a little longer. He could feel her wrap her arms around his neck again. Her wings slowly extended outwards and flapped gracefully and happily the longer the two of them held in the kiss.
Afterwards, they broke the kiss and stared into each other’s eyes. However, Twilight suddenly began nervous whilst blushing.
“Could…” began Twilight whilst being nervous at the same time. “D-do you think you can…help me…take off my bikini, Beau?”
“Beau?” replied Thomas in confusion, which caused Twilight to giggle.
“That’s my new nickname for you. It does have a nice ring to it, wouldn’t you say?”
Thomas, now Beau, chuckled after considering it.
“I suppose it does sound like a good nickname, now that I think about it.” Said Beau.
Beau then slowly reached for her back when he decided to help her out of her bikini like she requested. He reached behind and grabbed the tie and loosened it up enough for it to be able to fall off of her. She blushed softly as her D-Cup breasts were now free.
“H-how do I look?” asked Twilight whilst turning and used her right arm to cover her breasts whilst feeling nervous at the same time.
“You look…beautiful.” Said Beau.
“Well, don’t just stand there, take them off,” said Twilight whilst gesturing to Beau’s swim trunks.
By this point, it was obvious where this situation was going, so Beau obeyed Twilight and reached down to the hem of his trunks and pulled them down, showing off your shaft. Twilight blushed and took note of the shape.
“Beau... I-is that what... a human’s shaft looks like?” Twilight asked, reaching out to grab it.
“Y-Yeah, it is,” replied Beau, whilst feeling embarrassed too at the same time. Which is understandable, considering that it’s his first time being bare in front of a girl.
“I’ve... never seen a human phallus before. Th-There’s no ring around the midsection, or flat surface on the tip. It’s so big and...” Twilight paused and felt Beau’s shaft in the palm of her hands. “...hard.”
“T-Thanks, Twilight,” replied Beau awkwardly, shuddering to the touch from her soft hands.
Without even thinking, Twilight began to stroke your length, admiring it as she did so. “Does it feel good, Beau?” she asked.
“Y-Yes... without a doubt,” shivered Beau.
Twilight stroked Beau’s shaft a little faster and gave his balls some attention as well. Beau’s body twitched a little from how well she was tendering to his manhood and it made him wonder if she’s done this before. With Beau’s curiosity growing, you finally decided to ask.
“H-Hey... have you ever done this before Twi?” asked Beau.
“Well, sort of... there’s this book I’ve read just recently. It’s called “How To Please Your Stallion In Bed. I was a little too embarrassed to try it out, so I never really practiced up until now.”
“I didn’t even know you had books like that,” admitted Beau.
“You’d be surprised with what you can find in my library,” giggled Twilight before returning her attention back to Beau’s erection. What she did next blew Beau’s mind away. She opened up her mouth and took in his length.
*********************************************************************************************
Within a short while, both of them were making out passionately, and both of them were naked at the same time. The two of them broke the kiss as Twilight confessed something.
“Despite all that I’ve read about…you know…sex. I’ve…never done it before.”
“I had a feeling you’d say that,” said Beau as he stroked the top of her mane, “And you’re not the only one who’s a virgin. And if you want, you can take the lead and be on top.”
“That…might help.” Replied Twilight bashfully.
Getting into position, Twilight moved so that she was standing over Beau with her marehood level with his shaft. She bit her lip as she slowly lowered herself, allowing Beau’s manhood to ease into her walls. This continued ever so slowly, until he came to... her hymen.
“R-Remember what I said before, I-if you have sex with an alicorn... you will gain immortality,” she reminded as Beau’s penis poked her barrier. “Are... Are you sure you want to proceed?”
“Twilight, I love you more than anything in the world. I wouldn’t be doing this if I wasn’t sure about it. I’ll always be here for you, no matter what,” promised Beau, giving her a nod. In fact, the thought of being able to spend eternity with the love of your life brought Beau joy unlike any other.
“I-I... I love you too Beau...” she said as more tears appeared. With no more doubts, she sank all the way down on Beau’s member, allowing it to break her hymen. Twilight shut her eyes from the sharp pain and threw her head back, unable to suppress the moan that followed.
“S-Sweet Celestia... w-we got it in...” she muttered, managing to crack a small smile despite the pain. Watching blood come out of her marehood, Beau held both of her hands to show her she has his full support. Twilight took the time to get used to this new feeling.
Once the pain had subsided, Twilight began moving her hips up and down while keep her hands on Beau’s bare chest. She moaned blissfully, her breathing was steady and Beau was groaning from her tight entrance. While her insides did feel soft and warm, they kept quite a grip on his shaft.
“Oh jeez, you’re so tight!” groaned Beau.
“I... I can’t help it... this is my first time... and it feels so good!” she screamed. She then gave a rather rough slam on Beau’s member in a desperate attempt to loosen her marehood for him.
“Mm mph! Easy Twilight, you’re not the only one who’s just lost his virginity!” grunted Beau. She giggled and started grinding her hips on his. Twilight’s moaning grew more erotic and her wings flapped beautifully. Her horn also began to glow slightly.
“Mmm, I’m sorry, Beau... but, you’re just so... big and... hard,” Twilight said in a sultry growl. “I feel like I could ride you for centuries.”
At the same time, right outside, Spike and Starlight were walking down the hall whilst having a conversation.
“And that…” concluded Spike, “Is why you should never have chocolate, before going to sleep.”
“Uh, that doesn’t make sense.” Said Starlight in confusion.
“Makes sense to…”
They then suddenly heart moaning and grunting, which confused the two. They looked around, not knowing what else to expect. The two of them wondering what was going on.
“What was that?” said Starlight.
“It sounds like it’s coming from Twilight’s room.” Said Spike.
The two of them moved towards the room as they leaned against the door and heard them.
“Wonder what…?” said Spike, until they heard their answer.
“Oh, Sweet Celestia this feels good!!” moaned Beau loudly.
“Relax and let your princess give you some sugar.” Said Twilight.
The two of them were shocked by what they were hearing.
“Wait…” said Spike as he looked at Starlight in shock, “You don’t think…”
“Uh, yeah they are.” Said Starlight.
The two of them immediately blushed hard and moved away from the door. Soon the two of them were far enough to not hear the noise as they kept the blush on their faces.
“We must never speak of this again.” Said Starlight.
“Agreed.” Said Spike, causing the two of them to quickly move as far away as they could.
*********************************************************************************************
After a long intercourse, both Beau and Twilight were completely exhausted from their fun time. The two of them were under the blanket as they held onto one another.
“Sweet…Celestia…that was intense.” Said Beau between breaths.
“It’s been a while since…I felt so good.” Said Twilight as she was just as exhausted. Whilst she calmed down, Twilight nuzzled Beau’s chest, cuddling him as if you were a stuffed animal.
“I can’t…believe that I…mated and…fell in love…with the most beautiful Alicorn Princess.” Said Beau between pants.
“And this Alicorn Princess is very happy.” Said Twilight softly as she kissed Beau’s cheek.
The two of them laid there in silence, until a thought popped in Beau’s head.
“Hey, Twilight?” asked Beau?
“Hmm?” asked Twilight.
“Is it possible that you might end up pregnant from someone of a different species?” asked Beau.
Twilight looked at her hand as she considered the question. After some thought, she said “Well, you’re the first human to set foot in this world, so only time will tell.”
Twilight slowly placed her hand on her belly. “You released quite a bit of sperm into my womb. Frankly I have no doubt that you would make a wonderful father, after all…” said Twilight before she started to coo whilst saying “You’re already proven to me that you’re a wonderful lover.”
Beau couldn’t help but blush and said “Thanks Twilight. I love you, so much.”
“I love you too, Beau.” Replied Twilight before she rested her head against his chest. Feeling him softly brush her hair and ears only encouraged her to go to sleep. Beau soon felt his body feeling tired too and soon fell asleep, whilst snuggling with the Princess that he held dearly. And who knows, if she does end up pregnant, then Beau will devote all his time and energy into caring for their child.
