Twilight could hear beeping within the bedroom as she was sleeping. She groans, not wanting to get up, but the beeping continues. She opened her eyes and got up, yawning. She took the clock and turned it off, as it was 9:40 a.m. She went back to bed, snuggling against Dash, but she noticed something was off with Dash's body. She felt like a pillow—a very soft one. She got up and removed the blanket, seeing that she was indeed snuggling against Dashie pillow, not her girlfriend herself.

"Huh?"

She looked around and didn't see her girlfriend, but Twilight did see something. Her and Dashie's stuff was put away in the closet and dresser when she remembered just leaving their luggage out on the floor after going to bed. She suddenly could smell something wonderful coming from the kitchen and followed it. She was surprised as she saw Dash wearing one of Twilight's long t-shirts, which covered her lower body and showed a bit of bare butt. Dash was cooking breakfast, humming a tune.

"Morning, Twi." said Dash, turning her head and smiling.

Twilight blinks and just stands there. "Morning, Dashie. You're up early. And why are you wearing my shirt?"

Dash didn't stop cooking but spoke, "What? You don't want to see me in your shirt, babe?"

"I don't mind, just wondering."

"I'm wearing this because I'm not wearing anything underneath, and it's not good for a girl like me to cook naked. I'm making eggs and bacon; would you like some?"

"Sure, just let me change first. Also, did you put our stuff away?"

"Yeah, I woke up earlier and got bored, so I just did that. I also fixed up the living room after we-" Dash turned bright red when she remembered what they did in the living room after watching the movie and ordering a pizza. "You know what we did! I had to clean it up! We'll be living here for the next year; we can't have a messy house!"

Twilight just giggled and entered the bedroom, grabbing some clothes and entering the bathroom. Dash could see her girlfriend was wearing nothing as she entered the bathroom, making her blush nonstop. When she could hear her singing from the shower, Dash sighed heavily, putting the food on the dish. "Why? Why do I keep getting flustered? I'm dating her; I should be fine seeing her naked. I should be fine, so why? Why do I keep getting embarrassed? Maybe it's because she's always so confident in her body and not shy at all, not like me."

Dash took the dishes and placed them on the table, along with a couple of sodas and utensils. She went back to the stove and started to clean up. It wasn't long before Twilight stepped out of the shower and fully dressed, which made Dash all red again. Twilight was wearing Dash's outfit from the time they first met.

"Babe, what are you doing?" asked Dash.

"Wearing your clothes, is there something wrong with that?" answered Twilight, teasing Dash as she could see her shock.

"N-No! Not at all. It's fine. It's just a little weird. I never thought you would wear my clothes, I mean."

Twilight picked up her plate and took a few bites before answering her, "I realize we should be wearing each other's outfits, as we are dating and living together. It would be a good bonding exercise and a funny idea. Don't you think so?"

"Um, yea, yea. I agree." said Dash, taking a bite of her eggs and sweating.

Twilight noticed and felt worried, "Is it weird? I can change if you want."

"NO! I mean, it's not. I think it's fine. Don't change."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Totally!"

Twilight took a seat and continued to eat, while Dash went to the bedroom to change, as she already had a bath after waking up. Twilight picked up the data pad that was on the table and wanted to check her emails, but noticed that Dash used it, as there was a list of things that the house needed. She went through it and started to check normal email account.

"Hmm, maybe we should do some shopping today? I mean, we're not working, so it's fine. We have 3 days before the next quota mission, so we can relax and have some fun. What do you say, Dash?"

Dash steps back into the kitchen, wearing Twilight's outfit from yesterday, with her own reading glasses on, and looking super embarrassed and awkward.

"Uh, yea. Sure. Shopping sounds fun. Let's do that."

Twilight was frozen with shock, dropping her fork and just staring at her girlfriend, making Dash worry.

"Does it look weird? Do you hate it? I knew it. I'm not good with this kind of stuff."

Twilight blinks a few times before saying, "No! Not at all; you look fine. Great, even. It's just that you look great."

Dash was happy and sat down. She picked up the pad and checked what else was needed while Twilight kept looking at her. They had only been dating for a month and living together back in the space station for a week before they were shipped out for their jobs. All this felt new and fresh, like they were dating again.

After eating, they were both about to head off to the market, but Twilight checked on the pink slime she was able to keep as a pet. It was still in the small tube and still moving around, making her happy that it was still alive. "Don't worry, little guy. I'll get you a big home so you can move around and get you some food. Gonna ask Fluttershy what you eat though, so you get strong and..." Twilight smirked as her honey side was kicking in, "Big! Super big!". Dash was standing behind her, blushing and sighing, when she heard that.

The two finally left, and after exiting the tram, they were in the market area of the company town base. It was a huge area with rows and rows of shops selling anything you could think of. Some were selling weapons and gear; others were selling food and drinks. Some were clearly owned by the company, but there were others that were not owned by them. Twilight watched as Dash started to shop around for stuff, taking the lead, so she was following her, holding her hand, and keeping her close.

They stopped by a weapons shop, and the robot salesman was talking to the other customers.

"I can't believe how low the prices are for this shit. Who the hell is selling crap guns and ammo? What the hell?" said a woman, looking at the gun.

Dash and Twilight kept moving on; they started to notice a pattern with the non-company-owned shops, and it was clear that the company was selling better items and not cheap knock-offs.

"Why is this so cheap?! These should be worth more?" said another man, looking at the item.

"What's the difference?" said the owner.

"The difference is that these are all knock-offs. You're selling us fake stuff! Company owned shops are better. Screw these shops." replied the man, as the girls kept walking and continued on their shopping.

Twilight kept watching Dash, amazed at how well she was shopping, checking everything and buying only the best, which made her happy that her girlfriend was such a good shopper. Even one of the old shop owner noticed this, as Dash was buying a fish tank for the slime.

"You are a good shopper. I'm guessing you are the housewife between the two of you. You look like one too. I can tell by the outfit. Your wife is a lucky gal."

Twilight giggled as Dash was blushing when she heard.

"We're not yet ma-" but Dash was cut off as Twilight held her hand and smiled, saying, "We're not married yet, but we're hoping too."

The shop owner was surprised and laughed, saying, "Damn, you two are a young pair. But don't worry; I wish you two the best of luck, and may the stars shine brightly on you."

Twilight told him thanks and took the tank while pulling a shock dash away.

They stopped at the same company-owned pizza store and were eating lunch when Dash couldn't stop thinking about what Twilight said, making her red.
"Babe, why did you say that? I know you joke about it a lot but we're not dating that long."

"You're not happy I said that? Did it hurt your feelings?" asked Twilight, worrying as she took a bite of the cheese pizza.

"N-No! Not at all. It was sweet. Thanks. I just can't believe you said that. That's all."

"We're dating and living together, so I thought it would be nice to say something like that. Sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable."

"No! No, you didn't! I'm happy. Just surprised. So don't worry."

They finished eating and walked out of the shop. Dash asked her where they were going now; that's when Twilight took out her data pad and said, "We're going to head to the study research area. Fluttershy wants to meet up and hang out! This is great!". Dash just put on a fake smile and followed her.

After dropping off everything at their home, they made their way back to the research area, stepped inside the sector, and walked up to the front desk.

"Welcome. How may I help you?" asked the receptionist, a female robot with a very nice voice.

"We're here to meet up with Fluttershy. Is she around? She allowed us to be here." said Twilight, smiling.

The robot looked into her records and smiled, saying, "Ah, yes. Fluttershy is on the bottom level, in sector 4 of the wildlife study area. Would you like a map?"

"Please and thank you."

After getting the map on her data pad, they stepped into the elevator and took it down to the bottom floor. The doors opened, and a small sign was in front of them, saying welcome to Wildlife Study Sector 4. Please watch your step and don't bother the animals.

"Alright, it should be right around the corner." said Twilight, taking the lead and entering the sector.

They were standing inside a giant study lab with a giant dome under it, housing different animals. They were walking down a bridge and could see many robots and workers doing studies and research. Fluttershy was nowhere to be found.

"Fluttershy?!" shouted Twilight, looking around, but a robot walked over to them and asked if they were looking for her.
"We are. Is she around? She said to meet up here." said Twilight.

The robot nodded and led them somewhere, saying, "She is; let me get her."

The robot brought them to the break room and left to get Fluttershy. The girls could see a lot of robots and a few people having their lunch break. Dash could see cute female researchers from dragons and ponies and enter her player mode, while Twilight noticed her dusting off and getting ready to flirt and she smirked. Dash was quickly snapped out of it as Twilight walked pass her and started to hit on them like Dash would have done. The female dragon researchers blushed and got nervous, which was something that Dash had never seen before. She could feel a slight pain in her chest.

"I hope your work is hard and your legs are nice and soft." said Twilight, winking.

"Are you hitting on us?" said one of the women.

"I am. How did you know?"

"We're not that kind of—" said the other woman.

Twilight took her hand "Don't worry. I'm not that kind, either. Just a woman wanting to show her love and appreciation towards beautiful and lovely ladies like yourself. That's all. I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable."

The women just shook their heads, blushing madly. Twilight smiled and turned to Dash, seeing her all upset. Twilight was glad to show her how it felt to be on the other side, but something happened that caught her off guard. The girls that she was hitting on, gave her their numbers.

"You girls are giving me your numbers? Want my number too? Why?" said Twilight, looking surprised.

"Well, you seem really nice. Also, you're hot. We like that. If you want, maybe we could hang out sometime." said the one woman, winking.

Dash felt like she could scream, but she could only stand there and watch as her girlfriend was getting their numbers and they were flirting with her. Dash just took a seat and waited, seeing Twilight getting into the playgirl mood and chatting with them. She was not liking this at all—not one bit. Even more so when more girls started to join in and asking her out.

"Ladies, ladies, there's enough to go around. Don't fight now." said Twilight, giggling as she was enjoying herself.

"I'll share with anyone you want. If that's fine!" said one of the women, kissing her hand.

"O-Oh, wow. Thanks. Maybe we can arrange something. I'm Twilight Sparkle, by the way."

"Nice name. I'm Trixie." said the blue-skinned unicorn woman, wearing a research outfit.

Dash watched as Twilight started to stare at the lady's bare legs and touch them. She quickly stood up and stomped her way over to them, pulling Twilight's ear and forcing her away.

"Babe, you have your own girlfriend right here. You don't have to chat them up like that. Stop!" said Dash, holding Twilight close.
"Oh, are you her girlfriend?" asked Trixie.

"YES! We're dating! So she can't be chatting you all up. I'm her girlfriend, not you. Sorry." Dash said, blushing.

All of the ladies started to be upset that Twilight was taken, but said Dash was lucky, as they believed that Twilight was into nerdy types, causing Dash to blush.

"Nerdy type!?" thought Dash, but she let out a cute squeak when she felt Twilight's hand under her skirt and touching her buttocks.

"That's right. I have my own beautiful girlfriend right here, who is amazing in every way. Dashie is the best girlfriend a woman like me could ask for." proudly said Twilight, turning to the group of women, making them jealous of Dash. "I love her!"

Dash couldn't answer or do anything other than let go of Twilight's ear and start playing with her skirt while blushing like crazy.

"D-Dashie?"

Twilight turned and noticed Dash was getting all red and shy. She smirked and pulled her away from the group as the girls waved goodbye and headed back to work. They sat at a table, and Twilight put her arm around Dash and leaned against her, whispering in her ear.

"So, is this how you feel whenever you hit on girls and I get upset? Does it hurt? I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you mad, but now you get it, right? How it feels, awful, right?"

Dash didn't want to admit it, but she was right. It felt weird to watch her girlfriend talk with those other girls and them get her number.

"Y-Yeah, kinda."

"Kinda?"

Dash looked away. "It hurt, alright? Seeing you chatting up those girls, making them happy, and them giving you their number," Dash looked back at her, with a serious look now. "Which, by the way, I never get, so how the fuck did you get theirs so fast!?"

Twilight giggle "I don't know. I was just being nice, and it worked."

"Just, just don't do that again. I don't like it!" said Dash, puffing her cheeks.

Twilight looked at her with warmth and happiness, as everyone was right. She looks like a cute, nerdy girl while wearing her clothes. It also doesn't help how clingy she was being as she held her hand. She made her look like a nerdy girl who lost her virginity and was now the proud and overprotective girlfriend.

"Sorry. I'll make it up to you. I promise."

"Better do that."

Twilight leans forward and kisses her very lovingly, as a few girls that were leaving the break room were able to catch it.

"I'm jealous of her..." said one.

"Yeah, same. She's lucky to have such a hot girlfriend, but still, it gives us nerdy girls hope, right?" said another.

"Yea, true."

Back in the room, Twilight was holding Dash close while continuing to kiss her, but it was broken up as they heard a familiar voice.

"Oh sorry. I'll comeback!" said Fluttershy, seeing the two making out, but Twilight broke the kiss and quickly stood up with joy.

"No, Fluttershy! Don't leave. It's ok, we're done."

Fluttershy was blushing. "If you say so."

Dash was upset that Twilight broke the kiss, but she and Twilight noticed that Fluttershy was wearing very hippie-looking clothes. She was even barefoot.

"Woah, what's up with the outfit?" asked Dash.

Fluttershy smiled "It's what I usually wear. Is it weird? I'm a nature person and raised by nature loving parents, and this is what I like." She spun around, "AJ likes it too. She says, I'm very cute and down to earth looking."

"Oh, Applejack is here?" asked Twilight.

Fluttershy shook her head and pointed up, saying, "She's actually doing her own thing right now. I'm glad you could come! I want to ask you something about the creatures you brought here and something else. Come, follow me."

The girls followed Fluttershy to the elevator and took it down to the dome area. She pressed a button, and the elevator stopped and slid to the far right. It landed in a desert area and opened its door, making Fluttershy and others walk out.

"This is the desert dome. Many different desert creatures are studied here. Some can be very hostile, but others are harmless and very nice."

The girls followed Fluttershy deeper and saw a giant snake in a cave and a monster-sized scorpion running around. It stopped and waved at Fluttershy before going back to its nest.

"Wow. That's one big scorpion. And a giant snake. I didn't think scorpions could get that big. What else do you have?" asked Twilight.

"Remember that spider you saved? We have that now, and that's why I brought you here." answered Shy as she stopped in front of a small building without a door. She lowers herself behind a large rock, telling the girls the same thing.

"Ok, why are we hiding?" asked Dash.

Fluttershy shush her, saying, "She's in there. We created that building for her. We dub her the Bunker Spider, as it bunkers down in a building like this, just like you found her in that colony. She's a new species we've never seen before. Second largest spider ever discovered as well."

"How is that possible? How can you not find something like that?" asked Twilight.

"There's millions of worlds, Twilight. It's impossible to explore them all. You can't cover all of them. There's plenty of places we haven't explored yet."

Twilight and Dash looked at each other and back to Shy, making Twilight say, "So what do you need us for?"

"Since you discovered her, the company is asking you to do some research and help us discover more about her. If you are able to figure her out, then the company will reward you greatly. But we can't enter her home. She's too hostile and dangerous with the staff, but she was so peaceful with you two. So I want you to go inside and study her."

"What?! Fuck no! We're not going in there with that monster. No way! Right Twilight!?"

Twilight was quiet.

"Twi, please tell me you're not considering this?!"

"It sounds fun. And the reward is huge." Twilight turned to Shy, "Right?" Shy nodded. "Okay, let's do this!"

"Twi, no! That spider can kill us."

"She won't. She was friendly with us; besides, we're safe here. Right?" asked Twilight to Shy.

Shy nodded as robot guards stepped out of nowhere and had their weapons ready. "Yes, the company will protect you. They don't want to be sued after all. Plus, I have my own weapon here. I will protect you; trust me."

"See Dashie? We're fine. Let's go."

Dash wanted to say something but decided not to, as they walked into the building while Dash held the data pad, live streaming everything to Shy and the other researchers. Inside the run-down building, there were spider webs everywhere, as they covered the whole room. Twilight carefully moved around it, not touching it. Soon they could hear Shy asking through the data pad that if the webs are dangerous to touch, like if it could cause someone to be paralyzed.

"No, not paralyzing, but it will warn the spider that someone got into its lair." Twilight grew sad as she kept talking. "Someone told us this."

"Who was it?" asked Shy, but seeing how upset Twilight looked, she took back the question and was going to ask another question, but Dash screamed as she and Twilight saw the spider setting up new webs and got scared as it turned around. Both sides stood there, frozen. Shy quickly learned something and said, "You caught her 'unprepared'. She froze as a defensive reaction. It's best if you don't do anything. Don't move."

"I have a bad feeling," whispered Dash, slowly stepping backwards, hoping the spider didn't see her.

"Why are you moving?" asked Shy.

"I'm trying to leave!"

"No, don't move! Don't make any sudden movements. Just stand there."

Twilight tried not to move, but the spider started to get closer and was walking around them. Shy told them not to run; that would only trigger the spider, as she would think they were prey.

"What are we supposed to do!? She's getting closer!" whispered Dash.

"I'm sorry, but that's all I can say. You have to trust me." said Shy.

"FUCK THAT! I'M OUT!" yelled Dash, running towards the exit, but the spider jumped and did a 360-degree no-scope web shot, blasting Dash in the back, knocking the data pad out of her hands, and then shooting in the face, cursing that it happened again. "In the face again, really? All white and sticky! Gross!"

"D-Dashie! "Are you alright?" asked Twilight, looking worried but also blushing hard, as she couldn't get the dirty images out of her mind.

"Ugh, yeah, just pissed off. Help me get this stuff off."

"I-I can't. The spider is still there."

Dash looked and noticed the spider was right in front of her, looking at her and saying, "Fuck!"

The spider turned around and fired off a ton of web and blasted into Dashie's face and body, covering her head to toe in webbing and starting to spin her up and putting her in a cocoon. Dash was trying to get the webbing off her eyes and mouth, but the more she did, the more webbing the spider fired, and soon she was completely wrapped up, then being tea bagged, and the spider was now facing Twilight. Once again, both were having a stare-off. Shy was watching all this and writing down notes and nodding to herself. She even smiled as she could see the spider walking away, back to working on its web, and then hiding on the ceiling. She told her to get Dash and come back out.

Twilight did that and went over to the cocoon, seeing that the spider had left the room. Twilight started to tear the webs apart and was able to pull Dash out. Dash was breathing hard and was upset.

"Why were you blushing when she shot me in the face!?"

"Can we talk about that later?" asked Twilight, not looking her in the eyes.

"Whatever! This place is freaking me out."

Once outside, Fluttershy explained why the spider didn't attack Twilight, which Twilight already knew, but there was a part that surprised her.

"It knew Dash was my partner?" said Twilight, blushing hard and holding Dash close.

"I can't say how, but yes. It could sense it. It can tell you were the alpha; even though Dash was the one that was aggressive and screaming, it didn't matter. The spider was only focused on you, Twilight. It knew better to hurt Dash or you. Amazing!"

Dash wasn't happy to hear that, "Wait, you telling me that stupid spider sees Twilight as a threat but not me?"

"Yes. I can't say why, but that's the data I have. Sorry. I guess it sees you as the beta, so to speak."

Dash started to head to the elevator. "Fuck this place!"

Shy bow "Anyway, I'm sorry about your experience, but at least you got something good from it."

"Like what?" asked Dash, turning around.

Twilight smiled and held up the data pad, saying, "Data and the bonus money!"

"That's true! But still, I can't believe a spider sees Twi as a threat and not me. Like, what the fuck? I'm tough too!"

Fluttershy smiled and agreed with Dash, not wanting her to be upset anymore, but Shy noticed that Twilight was blushing as she watched the video of Dash getting covered in webs. She walked to Shy and asked, "Can you maybe make me a copy of this? I might want to watch it tonight. For research!"

"Sure, I guess?" replies Shy, not understanding why she would want a copy.

They moved on to another spot, this time in a dark cave, and walked in. Twilight smiled with glee as she saw the pink slime, just slowly moving across the rocky ground, while Dash stepped back, not wanting to be near it.

"The pink Hygrodere you discover is something! Its slimely body doesn't melt anything, unlike the normal Hygrodere. It dances to music like other Hygrodere, but for some odd reason, it reacts more if sexy music is playing. It's amazing!"

"You guys tested that!?" asked Twilight, looking surprised and nervous.

"Oh yes, we test all music and that's kind of music it loves. We don't know why it acts like that. We don't know much about it at all."

Twilight sighs with relief. making Shy a little confused, but she kept talking, showing the girls the large pink slime creature, just hopping around and splashing its slimy body around with music playing from the data pad. Shy even told them not to touch it; even though there was no acid in its body, it had a chemical inside of it, as they discovered when it attacked two researchers.

"What kind of chemicals!? What happened to the two researchers!?" asked Dash, freaking out.

Shy turned red and said, "Aphrodisiac."

"A what!?" screamed both.

"We don't know why either. We believe it has sex with another creatures, and maybe that's the reason it's pink. Whatever the reason, it can increase the libido of whoever touches it, which is the reason the two researchers had sex. Luckily, they didn't have partners."

Twilight blushed and looked away, as she knew the real reason why it became like that, but froze when she heard Dash say, "Makes sense now."

"What do you mean?" asked Shy, not understanding her.

"Nothing. Forget it," replied Dash, as she changed the subject. "So why are we here? This thing isn't doing much."

Fluttershy remembered why they're here and answered her question. "Oh right. Well, the thing is, for some reason, it behaves weirdly when around purple and blue skin researchers. We believe it remembers you and fears you. Was it hard to catch? Did you have to use a device to hurt it?"

Both girls just shrugged, not wanting to answer the truth. Making Shy wonder why the slime was like that.

"Can one of you go near it? I want to see something."

"Sure. I'll go." said Twilight.

Twilight walked near it, making it notice her, who started to blush and run away very slowly. Twilight walked back, and Shy asked Dash to do the same.

'Whatever, as long as we're getting paid for this."

Dash walked up to the slime and stood there, and like Twilight before her, the slime started blushing hard and, like before, tried to run. Dash sighed and was going to walk back, but tripped and fell backwards into the slime. Twilight smirked while Shy covered her eyes, as Dash's clothes were melting off and exposing her skin and even her panties and bra, before long they were almost gone. Dash screamed.

"DON'T JUST STAND THERE! SOMEONE HELP! AND NOT HAVING ACID!? BULLSHIT!"

"I-I-I'm sorry! I don't know what to do! I'm sorry!" cried Shy, not helping her at all as she held the data pad up to her face, hiding her face.

"TWI!?"

Twilight smirked and was going to join her, but remember, there might be video cameras recording this, and Shy was with them. She didn't want to get in trouble with HR. Twilight sighed and said, "Hold on." and quickly ran up to her and pulled her out.

"WHY DO YOU LOOK SO DAMN DISAPPOINTED!?" shouted Dash, as Twilight was giving her a sad look and tears coming down her eyes.

Later, the girls were in Shy offices, and she gave Dash her extra pair of clothes and was going to tell them something as she waited for Dash to sit down.

"Thanks for the help and hanging out with me. It's been fun to be around you two. I hope you feel the same way."

Both nodded, as it was pretty fun to be around her, and Shy is a sweet girl in their eyes.

"Good to hear. So, what I want to talk about is that the company has offered me and AJ to join your unit. AJ is alright with it, since he likes you two and I feel the same way, but I wanted to hear from you two and see if you really liked me. We don't have to work together if you don't want to."

"Wait, what? We didn't know or hear about this!" said Twilight, while Dash said the same thing.

"The higher-ups requested it. They were impressed by your findings of rare and new creatures, and there is a report of a weird animal on 56-Vow. They're hoping, with you two and with us, we can capture it. Of course, we still have to fill the quota while hunting this animal. Of course, we'll be there to help find scraps. What do you say? You'll get a bonus like before if we find this creature and bring it back. So, what do you say? Yes or no?"

Twilight looked at Dash and then at Shy, saying, "Can I ask something?"

Shy nodded.

"Did the higher-ups give any hints about this animal?"

Shy turned off the lights and turned on the TV, playing a video. It was inside a colony building, and two white eyes stared within the darkness before disappearing. The lights went back on "That's all they've got, and reports don't help either," Shy said to them. "All reported the same thing. Two white eyes are looking at them. There are no other details, other than that it's not a robot. That's it. I don't know what it is. They don't know as well, and that's why higher-ups want us to go and find out."

"So... you're saying that this is some weird thing; no one can figure out what it is, and they want us to find it?"

"Basically, yes, Dash. So, what do you say?"

Dash was thinking and was about to answer, but Twilight beat her to it.

"We're okay with it, but if this thing is dangerous, we won't refill the request. I'm not risking Dash or my life on something that no one knows nothing about." Shy was going to say something, but Twilight wasn't done talking. "I won't risk your lives as well! You're our friends. Got it!"

Fluttershy smiled with a small blush, and I agreed with her.

"With that settled, glad to have you two aboard!" They shook hands with her, and Twilight had an idea. "Why don't we have dinner before we ship out? We can get to know each other better."

"That's a wonderful idea, Twilight. How about your place?"

"Sure, our place is fine, right, Dash?"

Dash was creeped out by the creature as she kept looking at the screen and answered her, "Huh, sure."

"Then it's settled. Let's exchange numbers. We'll be seeing you guys in a few days."

With the plans made, the girls waved bye to her and left. Twilight was walking happily, while Dash was still creep out of the white-eyed creature.

"Are we sure about this? I mean, what if this thing is dangerous?"

"If it is, we'll just ignore it, collect the scrap, and be on our way. That's the best plan I have."

"Ugh, fine. If that's what you think."

Two days later, it was nighttime, and Dash was making dinner while Twilight was fixing her black dress. She was hoping this dinner date went well. Soon, there was a knock at the door. Twilight answered it and saw that AJ and Shy were there, wearing their best clothes, and AJ was carrying a pie.

AJ tips her hat forward. "Hey girl, we brought some sides for the dinner. Hope you like apple pie!"

Shy bowed "Hello Twilight."

"Hello, girls. It looks delicious; please come in! Dash is making dinner as we speak. "

"Thanks!" said AJ, entering the house with Shy.

Sometime after eating dinner, the girls were chatting away while Dash was pretty quiet and starting to take the plates to the sink. AJ commented on that.

"Yo, Dash, is everything okay?" But Dash just nodded and left. "She's not much of a talker, is she? Unless she's hitting on someone."

Twilight took a piece of the apple pie and spoke, "It doesn't look like it, but she's an introvert, but like you said, unless she sees a hot girl, Then she talks." Twilight pouted and took a bite of the pie.

AJ smirked and laughed a little as she took a bite of her own pie. "I hope she doesn't mind us living on the ship for the next three days. Gonna be packed like a can of sardines."

Twilight is taken aback by this: "Wait, your not going in your own ship? Why?"

"Blame the company on that. They are trying to cut costs by saving fuel, so they decided that all four of us would be on the same ship for this mission." answered AJ, finishing her pie.

Shy was still eating hers. "It's going to be pretty cramped. Dash won't mind, right?" But Shy noticed that Twilight was frowning hard. "You aren't happy about this, I see. Sorry."

Twilight looked sad but understood why the company wanted them to share a ship to save fuel and money, but the reason she was upset was because she wouldn't see Dash's cute embarrassment face anymore.

"Nah, just upset that Dash won't overcome her 'problem'." answered Twilight, finishing her pie.

"Problem?" said both girls, not understanding what she meant.

Twilight smirked, knowing this would make Dash mad, but the reward of seeing her cute reaction would be worth it. She told them.

It wasn't long before Dash came back, sat down, and could see Twilight trying to hide her laughter while she felt Shy's hand on hers and telling her, "Dash! That's awful! Being all flustered around Twilight when she's naked! Poor girl, your sex life with Twilight must be hard!"

Dash went red in the face and wanted to scream at Twilight, but AJ spoke up: "Sorry to hear that, lass; Twilight said you are still a virgin too. Still haven't done it with her? Shame."

Dash was screaming in her mind and turned to Twilight, who was looking away and laughing softly. She pulled Twilight and started to whisper, asking what she said to them, not realizing that AJ and Shy were whispering at each other too, until Shy spoke, "Dash, AJ is okay with it, and I'm okay with it as well. If it helps you and your sex life, we'll join in, in heling you!" proudly said Shy, while AJ nodded. "I was raised in a hippie household, so I'm okay with this kind of thing and AJ doesn't care one bit!"

Dash blushed and stammered out, "W-w-wait, join in? What?"

Twilight heard them and was shocked, as she was caught off guard as well.

Cut to the next day and on the ship, with Twilight and Dash blushing while they look at AJ typing away on the main computer, while Shy was playing with the loot bugs, as they forgot about them. Twilight and Dash are on the bottom bed of the bunk beds. The reason they were blushing was because AJ and Shy was naked, along with theselves.

"I'm going to kill you, Twi." whispered Dash, as she was red in the face, eyes closed.

"Don't blame me. I was talking about how you were afraid of seeing me naked. That's it! I didn't think Shy would do all...THIS" whispered Twilight back to her.

Dash groaned as she hid under the blanket, not wanting to stare at anyone.

In route to 56-Vow
Second Quota Mission starting tomorrow

Author's Note

I wish the game had a down time other than visiting the company moon. it be also neat to have a zoo area and look at all the animals/monster without fear of dying.
