Anyways, I hope you keep enjoying the story and I promise to make it enjoyable for you. Enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 8: A Delirious Reunion
They couldn't believe on what they were seeing. Delirious was seeing Squirrel and Delirious, while Squirrel was seeing Delirious. However, after they yelled in surprise, Delirious instantly ran to Squirrel.
Delirious now had a excited expression and had stopped in front of the now excited Squirrel standing on the edge of the table. "S-Squirrel! It's you!"
Squirrel couldn't even get the words out at first, but he eventually got them out of his throat. "And Delirious! You're here!"
"I can't believe it!" They said in unison.
Everyone was watching the scene (except the Ponies in the pile and Bon Bon and Zecora) with mixed emotions. Some were curious, confused, and shocked that Squirrel knew Delirious.
Delirious put each of his hands on Squirrel's armpits and lifted him up. "It's you and you're actually your Squirrel avatar!" Delirious exclaimed exciting as he spun in place.
"And you're here as well!" Squirrel exclaimed excitingly as Delirious continued to spin himself and Squirrel.
Starlight had her jaw dropped that these two knew each other. However, she managed to get a response. "H-how do they know each other? H-he's a Zombie Squirrel and h-he's a Human?" Starlight questioned in a panicked tone, almost sounding like Twilight.
"They're probably friends." Spike answered casually, almost sounding like there was no big discovery happening in front of their eyes.
Zecora and Bon Bon passed by the pile and entered the Throne Room to see what everyone had their eyes on. They laid their attention on Delirious who had stopped spinning in place with a Squirrel in his hands.
When Bon Bon entered the Throne Room, her eyes had turned into small dots when she saw the Squirrel that she immediately identified. It was the Zombie Squirrel that was Rainbow's prank, but it looked like it was alive. Plus, Delirious recognized it. She couldn't believe it and tried to deny it, but she couldn't because the Zombie Squirrel was literally in front of her eyes.
Zecora on the other hoof, didn't look scared when she entered. In fact, she looked curious about what she was seeing. It made her curiosity peak and wondered many things about Squirrel.
Twilight let out a low groan as she weakly opened her eyes. When she did, she saw she was on top of a Pony pile. After she was aware of where she was, everypony in the pile finally opened their eyes and saw what position they were in.
"Oww! Whose hoof is crushing my stomach?" Rainbow said from the pile.
"The Pony who has their stomach on my face." Applejack answered in a retorting manner.
Twilight used her horn to teleport away from the pile and ended up next to Zecora and Bon Bon. Once she did that, she noticed that Delirious was holding Squirrel.
Wait! Delirious was holding Squirrel... in front of Bon Bon and Zecora. Twilight was starting to panic and dared to glance toward them to see their reactions.
She saw that Bon Bon had small dotted eyes, which meant that she was shocked or panicking. However, when Twilight looked at Zecora, she didn't look scared, shocked, or confused. Zecora looked... curious? Twilight was wondering what they were thinking and what they would do, although she was hoping that none of them would run before she can explain what they were seeing.
Twilight had shifted her attention back to the Ponypile when she heard some weak groans. When she laid her attention back to the pile, she noticed that everypony in it was getting up.
"*Gasp* Oh, now look at my mane, it is ruined. How uncouth." Rarity whined as she put a hoof to her forehead, unable to stand her unorganized mane.
"Rarity, ah think there is a bigger problem than ya mane." Applejack said.
"Hey, I don't smell any muffins." Derpy said as she sniffed the scent of the room.
"Where's Delirious?" Lyra said as she was getting up from the pile.
Twilight felt a lump go down her throat as she saw Lyra and Derpy wake up. She felt that they would also try to run away and tell Ponyville about the dead Squirrel.
She would soon found out because she saw that they laid their eyes on Squirrel.
From Twilight's perspective she can see that Lyra was shocked, while Derpy had a confused expression and raised an eyebrow.
"That's... that's the... Squirrel." Lyra said as her jaw dropped.
"Is that the Squirrel?" Derpy asked in a confused tone.
"But... that's not possible." Bon Bon said as she slowly backed up to the door. She wanted to leave.
Twilight noticed that she was backing away into the open door, so she closed the door with her magic and got in front of the door to prevent Bon Bon from opening the door.
Bon Bon turned around to see Twilight close the door, which made her panic. But before she can can say anything, Twilight spoke first.
"Wait, before you try to do run away, let me explain." Twilight said.
"B-b-but t-that's t-the... the Squirrel!" Bon Bon struggled to exclaim.
"If you can let me explain... please." Twilight said in a small pleading voice.
Bon Bon was struggling to say a word. How could she agree to hear the Princess out when she lied about the Squirrel?
"B-b-but... b-but you... you lied a-about the Squirrel." Bon Bon choked the words out, looking at the Squirrel who was looking back with a raised eyebrow.
"Y-yeah... you... did lie." Lyra reluctantly added, a little scared, but mostly shocked about the Squirrel.
"Wait, so that's not a prank?" Derpy asked in a confused tone. She was questioning if the Zombie Squirrel was alive or a fake.
Zecora still didn't look scared or shocked, she still had curiosity about Squirrel. 'Fascinating, this is the Squirrel that Twilight wanted hidden. It looks different, but still, it shouldn't be unbidden.' Zecora thought.
Seeing that there was some tension happening, Twilight tried her best to stop it. "Look, just let me explain everything to you, please?" She said in a cooing tone, hoping it would ease down the room.
It did show an effect on Bon Bon and Lyra, considering that they had a majority of fear wiped of their face. Derpy still looked confused, while Zecora still had her attention on Squirrel.
Bon Bon took a deep breath before she slowly spoke. "Ok... fine. I guess I should listen to what... the Princess of Friendship should say."
Twilight slowly nodded her head in understandment. "Thank you. Now let's take a seat." Twilight slowly walked to the table as Bon Bon, Lyra, Derpy, and Zecora followed her to the table.
Squirrel was standing on the table with Delirious standing on the castle floor, but he was still beside Squirrel.
Delirious thought it would be a good idea to try and reassure them as they were going to take a seat. "Hey, don't worry Squirrel, he's my friend and is harmless."
"Ok, just make sure he doesn't... bite us." Bon Bon said with a hint of hesitance.
"Trust me, he won't."
Delirious' words made Bon Bon sigh in relief, until...
"Yeah, what do you think I am, a rabid Squirrel?" Squirrel joked teasingly.
Instantly, Bon Bon, Lyra, Derpy, and even Zecora had small dotted eyes. They were surprised to hear the Squirrel talk and was freaking. Bon Bon, Lyra, and Derpy were surprised to hear the Squirrel talk, since they thought Squirrel was an actual Zombie when they first saw him. Zecora was surprised to also hear him, since it was a Squirrel.
"Y-you... h-he... he ju-u-ust... t-talked." Bon Bon choked the word out of her throat.
Twilight saw that Bon Bon was about to mentally break. 'Oh Celestia!' She thought.
Bon Bon then screamed loudly that it's a surprise that no one went deaf after hearing her screams.
Everyone put either their hooves, claws, or paws to their ears to drown out her screams.
"This could take a while." Twilight muttered to herself.
Many, MANY hours later...
"So... he can... talk." Bon Bon said slowly.
"Umm, yeah... he can." Twilight said reluctantly.
Twilight managed to calm down Lyra, Derpy, and Zecora, but mostly Bon Bon. Though with Bon Bon, it took many hours and minutes to calm her down. She eventually calmed down, but it took hours for her to get used to being in the same room as Squirrel.
Speaking of Squirrel, he was on a throne, playing UNO with Discord, Delirious, and Pinkie. They were each on a throne and putting cards on the table.
Right now, Delirious had 11 cards, Squirrel had 2 cards, Pinkie had 2 cards, and Discord had 2 cards in their hooves/hands/paws.
Delirious was looking down at his UNO hand with a frown and looked up at Squirrel, Discord, and Pinkie to see that they only have 2 cards.
"Well, this is some bullshit." Delirious said to himself in a mocking tone.
Little did he know, Lyra was beside him and observing him (well actually, she was observing his hands and how they were gripping the cards) and she heard his curse. Lyra was thrown off by his words and was also confused by it.
'What weird language Humans use, but why does it involve the... disposing of a Bull?' Lyra questioned in her head and also some small disgust.
While they were doing their game, everyone in the throne room was doing their own thing. As for Twilight and Bon Bon, they were both by the door, still talking about Squirrel.
"But see, you understand now why we can't tell Ponyville on what you saw?" Twilight asked Bon Bon.
Bon Bon had a conflicted look as she didn't respond to Twilight’s question. She turned her head away from Twilight and faced Squirrel who was on a throne.
Bon Bon continued to stare and observe at Squirrel for a while, which made Twilight look a little more worried. However, after a few seconds passed, Bon Bon finally turned her head toward Twilight and released a sigh. After the sigh, she opened her mouth to respond.
"I... think you're right." Bon Bon stated slowly.
Twilight's worry vanished and was replaced with a feeling of relief, but she wanted to double check if Bon Bon was sure.
"Really?" Twilight asked.
Bon Bon paused for a second to think about it. After it passed, she responded. "Y-yeah... I'm sure."
"Thank you. I promise you, it's best if we keep it a secret for a while."
"Y-yeah, that's nice, but... I need to take a rest."
"Wait, you're not going to tell anypony, right?"
"No, no. I'm just... I'm just tired from what happened, that's all. So much"
"Oh, umm ok. Just please don't tell anypony."
"I won't, Princess. I promise I won't."
"Thanks."
"Hey, Lyra!" Bon Bon called out to Lyra, who was still beside Delirious.
Lyra turned her head to Bon Bon. "Yeah!?" Lyra questioned.
"We are going to leave now."
Lyra's eyes widened slightly. "What!? Why!?"
"Because Lyra, the Squirrel we saw today is actually a Zombie and I'm getting a headache from all this."
"Well, can I stay here with Delirious?"
"No Lyra, it's getting late."
Lyra then had a set of big Puppy eyes form. "But... but... the Human."
"Oh my Celestia." Bon Bon muttered to herself in annoyance, seeing that her Marefriend was being difficult.
"Hey, I have an idea. How bout we hang out tomorrow?" Delirious suggested to Lyra.
"Yes, that sounds like a great idea." Lyra quickly agreed.
"Alrighty then, see you tomorrow, Lyra."
Lyra then wrapped her hooves around Delirious as she used her head to snuggle his body. "You too, Delirious."
Delirious looked like he might cry in happiness from the cuteness that Lyra had. However, it only lasted for a few seconds before she broke the hug.
"See you tomorrow, Delirious." Lyra then walked to the door.
Twilight used her magic to open the door to let Lyra and Bon Bon leave. "Thank you Lyra and Bon Bon for understanding."
"No problem, Princess Twilight. Have a good night!" Lyra said with enthusiasm as she walked out the door.
"Yeah, sweet dreams, Princess." Bon Bon said as she walked out the door.
"You too, girls." Twilight said.
"How are you not having a headache from all that happened today?" Twilight heard Bon Bon ask Lyra as they were heading for the front door.
"Simple, there's a real Human here in Ponyville." Lyra answered with a bit of excitement in her tone.
"*Sigh* Oh Lyra."
Twilight couldn't hear the rest of their conversation once they were out of her hearing range.
"I should also take my leave then. Though I'm sure I'll see Delirious and the Squirrel again." Twilight turned her head to see Zecora walking to the door of the throne room.
"You're leaving as well, Zecora?" Twilight asked.
"Indeed, Princess Luna's moon has made a rise, so this is where I'll say my goodbyes." Zecora said.
"Goodbye Zecora!" Delirious exclaimed as he leaned back on his throne and waved his left hand.
"Goodbye Delirious and good night to you all. I'll see you again when the moonlight falls." Zecora then walked into the hallway and was walking to the front door.
"Ooo, I should also leave as well. Goodbye Twilight." Derpy said as she also exited through the door.
Twilight's eyes were caught by Derpy as she was leaving the Throne Room. As Derpy was leaving, she exclaimed as she was heading down the hallway. "ALSO, I PROMISE NOT TO TELL ANYPONY ABOUT THE SQUIRREL!"
The front door was wide open when Derpy was at the door, so her loud assurement made Twilight slightly wince that somepony nearby might have heard it. However, after she saw Derpy leave and close the front door, she let out a small sigh and turned around to the Throne Room as she used her magic to close the door behind her.
However, as Twilight was doing this, Discord threw a blue UNO skip card in the middle of the table.
"And it looks like I won... again." Discord said happily as he got up from the throne seat he was sitting on and did another dance.

"Damn it." Delirious said with a small grunt.
"This is your fault, Delirious." Squirrel pointed out.
"How the hell is it my fault?"
"You kept skipping me."
"Listen... it's not my fault you had a bad hand, Squirrel."
"But, this is like the seventh time he won UNO and you let him win again."
"Hey, I thought we were playing Goldfish." Pinkie said.
After Discord was done breaking it down, he rubbed his victory in their faces even more. "Well, you should've had your head in the game and not in the clouds." Discord said with a smug smile as he summoned a small cloud that was engulfing his neck.
Delirious and Squirrel groaned at Discord's antics, while Pinkie let out a giggle. However, before any more talking or antics can come from any of them, Twilight got everyone's attention.
"Ok, now that we cleared that up... Delirious! Squirrel!" Twilight called out their names as she walked to the table. Delirious and Squirrel turned their heads toward Twilight and so did everyone else.
"Yeah?" Delirious asked in a confused tone.
"We have some questions to ask you and Squirrel about... all this."
"Uhh... ok, sooo what do you want to ask?"
Everyone gathered around the table as Twilight was about to ask her first question. "Ok, first, how did you two know each other?"
Delirious and Squirrel looked at each other with an uncertain look, then back at Twilight.
"Well because I met Delirious for the first time and I became his friend." Squirrel answered, like it was super obvious.
"What? No, that's not what I... *Sigh* Ok, let me be more specific, how does Delirious know you're this... Zombie Squirrel, even though you said that you were a Human before?"
"Ohh, why didn't you say so?" Delirious and Squirrel both asked in a tone of realization, which only made Twilight release a small groan.
"Well, the answer is pretty simple, it's his avatar on his YouTube channel and yeah, I would know what it looks like." Delirious answered.
Someponies had a few confused looks on their faces from Delirious' answer, but the Cutie Mark Crusaders were definitely the most stumped, which made Scootaloo ask a question.
"Umm... what's a YouTube Channel?" Scootaloo asked.
"Huh? Oh right, different dimensions." Delirious muttered to himself. "Ok, umm... just think about it as a... place where a person can show other people the things and hobbies they do."
"Wow, that sounds amazin'." Apple Bloom said in amazed tone.
"Yeah, it is." Delirious' eyes than widened slightly in realization that she didn't know who the Cutie Mark Crusaders are (even though he spent a few hours in the same room as them.)
"By the way, who the hey are you?" Delirious asked, but chuckled a little bit when he realized he unintentionally made another Horse joke.
"Well, ah'm Apple Bloom." Apple Bloom beamed as she introduced herself.
"I'm Sweetie Belle." Sweetie also beamed as she introduced herself.
"And I'm Scootaloo." Scootaloo beamed as well as she introduced herself.
"And we are THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" They all yelled with enthusiasm.
Delirious kind of winced at their beaming introduction as well as putting his hands on his ears. "Jesus, might as well make me go deaf, why don't ya?"
"Sorry, we got a little bit carried away, mister." Apple Bloom apologized.
"Please, call me Delirious." Delirious pointed a thumb at himself.
"But we already knew you were wild, mister." Scootaloo answered.
Squirrel put a hand to his mouth to hide his chuckle, while Delirious looked confused on what they said.
"What? No, my name is Delirious."
They all synchronized an "Ohhhh."
"Well, Delirious it's nice to meet you." Apple Bloom said.
"You too, kid."
"What about me?" Discord asked as he teleported and appeared to be leaning on the throne that Delirious was sitting on.
"Oh right, I don't even know yours. So, what's your name?"
"My name is Discord, your somewhat friendly neigh-borhood lord of chaos." Discord extended his talon claw, which made Delirious extend an arm to shake his claw.
"Wait, your name is Discord? Like the app Discord?" Delirious asked as he stopped shaking his claw.
"Oh please, I existed many years before that disgusting trap. Yet, they recognize it more than the chaos lord himself? *Scoff* Kids these days."
"Ok, now that the Crusaders and Discord introduced themselves, we still have some questions that we need to ask." Twilight said.
"Yeah, there is one important question that must be answered." Rarity said.
"And what would that be?" Delirious asked.
"What in Equestria is up with that mask?" Rarity asked.
"Huh? What do you mean? What's wrong with my mask?" Delirious questioned in a confused manner.
"Well, that mask is quite distracting and really ruins the style. And that mask covers your face, making it unable to present your glorious face to everypony."
"Well, that's kind of the point of it. To hide this glorious face from everyone. Also, I thought you said my clothing is extraordinary?"
"I did, it's just that your mask accessory is awfully distracting."
"Yeah man, you look like a serial killer." Rainbow added.
"Mmm, cereal." Pinkie said to herself as she licked her lips imagining the breakfast goodness.
"Listen... I just don't like to show my face to anyone and also to anypony, even if they can talk or are from a different dimension."
Rarity was about to say something back, but Fluttershy surprisingly answered first.
"Now Rarity, I understand you like fashion a lot, but you have to understand that Delirious wants to keep face hidden and we have to respect his decision." Fluttershy scolded in a soft tone, surprisingly not minding the fact that everyone in the room was looking at her until she looked around the room and noticed everyone's eyes were on her, making her hid her face behind her mane.
"*Sigh* I suppose you're are right, darling." Rarity took in Fluttershy's advice.
"Yeah, leave my mask alone. Plus, you guys are naked, so clothing doesn't even matter to you, since it's normal here." Delirious said.
"Excuse me?" Rarity asked, confused on what he was trying to say.
"Unless you're covering your private parts, but from what I seen, there's nothing needed to be covered."
Rarity and some of the other Mares blushed when they realized what Delirious said. However, the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Pinkie looked puzzled.
"How revolting! It's impolite to say that to a lady."
"Says the naked Pony."
Rarity scoffed as her jaw dropped.
Squirrel seemed to be watching the conversation with a small smile, but than he had a face of curiosity when a realization flashed in head. He looked down between his legs and saw nothing there. He then lifted his head to have a neutral expression.
'Damn, I just realized I have no nuts. Huh. This feels weird.' Squirrel thought to himself as he put each hand on the side of his body.
"I think we should move on and ask a different question." Twilight suggested with a slight blush on her face.
"Ooo, I have one!" Pinkie exclaimed. "What's your favorite type of cake, Deliriously!?"
Delirious looked up slightly and put his right hand under his chin, making an L formation with his thumb and index finger and thought about the questions. "Hmm... I don't know. Maybe a chocolate cake."
"That does sounds nice." Pinkie said which sounded close to Delirious.
He was confused by her voice sounding close to him, so he lowered his head and saw Pinkie sitting on his lap, looking at him with a gleeful smile.
"AHHHH!" Delirious screamed in surprise, which sounded like a Crow scream. "What the!? How did you get on my lap without... what!?" Delirious was generally confused.
"Trust me, Delirious, it's better if you don't try to understand Pinkie. Take it from my experience." Twilight said.
Delirious still looked confused, but decided not to argue about it. "Ok..."
"Next question. Delirious, how did you end up in Equestria?"
As Delirious put his hand on his chin to think to himself, he laid his right hand on Pinkie's left ear, which made her eyes open wide on impact. However, her eyes then became halfway shut as she was in a perplexed trance.
"Well, it would be a doozy trying to explain." Delirious said.
"And this is a doozy as well." Pinkie calmy said.
Delirious then realized that he was unintentionally petting Pinkie, so he removed his hand from her ear.
Pinkie's relaxed expression suddenly changed when she realized that she was receiving any petting from her ears. "Hey, why did you stop?" Pinkie whined.
"Hold on, Pinkie. Let me just try to explain to them how I got here. Oh boy." Delirious then prepared himself to give an explanation to the group. "So fi-"
"Wait, Delirious." Squirrel yelped, stopping Delirious from saying his explanation.
"Yeah, Squirrel? I'm trying to give an explanation here."
"I know, but I wanted to ask you something."
"And what would that be, Squirrel?"
"Before you turned into your avatar and came to Equestria, do you remember getting struck by purple lightning?"
The mention of the purple lightning made Twilight nervous.
"Oh, then I guess it isn't a doozy to explain. How did you know I was struck by lightning?"
"Because it happened to me."
Twilight started to sweat a little bit.
"Wait, Squirrel. You got hit by lightning as well?"
"Yeah, I did."
"Huh, that's strange."
Twilight then released a sigh. She had to tell them the truth of how they ended up here and she had to face the consequences of her actions.
"Delirious? Squirrel?" Twilight called their names.
"Yes?" They asked as both of them shifted their attention to the lavender Mare, confused on why she called their names.
"I have to tell you something that I think you should know."
"Uhh... ok, what is it, Twilight?" Squirrel asked.
Twilight took a deep breath. "I'm responsible for transporting you into Equestria."
The duo instantly looked confused, not knowing how to react to that information. They got struck by lightning from their computer screens, so how could that even be possible. Then again, they are in a dimension that has talking Ponies and actual magic.
They were trying to process this information, but Delirious finally broke their processed thinking. "What? What the heck do you mean?"
"Well... I may have caused that lightning and umm... maybe it might of went to your dimension, s-since it had chaos magic."
Both Delirious and Squirrel had widened eyes. Seeing that they might get mad or frustrated with Twilight, the Mane Six tried to reassure them.
"Now, ah know you're probably mad at Twahlight for this." Applejack said.
"B-but she didn't mean for it to happen." Fluttershy added with slight hesitance.
"Yeah, we are very sorry that she caused this." Rarity said.
"Even though she screwed up badly, she was just being a massive egghead and didn't know what she was doing." Rainbow said.
"Plus, isn't it fun that you're in a different world of colorful Ponies that find you freaky and weird that they would run from you and scream like this:" Pinke said as she started to do sarcastic screams. "Ahh, it's a walking Ape and a Zombie Squirrel everypony run! Oh, and you and Squirrely will be like-"
"Pinkie! Not helping!" Rainbow growled before Pinkie can do a sarcastic impression of Delirious and Squirrel.
"Sorry." Pinkie flashed a sheepish smile.
Delirious and Squirrel still looked shocked and still held the same face expression. Even though they had gotten reassured, she still believed that they would be mad at him. In fact, after a few seconds, Delirious and Squirrel opened their mouths and they looked like they had a body language of anger. She looked down and closed her eyes. She was about to get scolded for her actions. She was going to face the consequences.
"Ok. That's cool" Squirrel and Delirious said casually at the same time, which didn't have a voice of anger in their tone, confusing Twilight.
Twilight opened her eyes and lifted her head and held a confused look. "Huh? What did you say?"
"We said ok. That's cool." Squirrel answered casually.
Twilight was baffled, even her friends looked a little surprised at their reaction. Though Spike, Starlight, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders looked a little confused on what they were talking about.
"Wait, so you're not mad?" Twilight asked.
"No, not really." Delirious said.
"Even though Twily got you stuck in a different dimension?" Pinkie dramatically added as she pushed her head against Delirious' head and continued her dramatic tone. "With no possible way to go back to your dimensi-"
"Pinkie!" Twilight hissed.
"Sorry... again." Pinkie stopped pushing her head against Delirious' as she turned around and flashed a sheepish smile.
"Nah, I'm not mad. Plus, I'm actually kind of glad that it happened." Delirious said.
The Mane Six's eyes widened a bit.
"Wait, you're glad?" Rainbow asked.
"Yeah, we thought you might be a little infuriated, but glad? I never thought that you two darlings would be glad." Rarity said.
"Oh, we are mad that you brought us here." Squirrel said.
"But, it's cool that we are in an actual world of talking Ponies." Delirious said as he started to pet Pinkie again, which made her act like a grown Cat.
"Yeah." Squirrel added.
The Mane Six released a sigh of relief (except Pinkie who was being petted.)
"That's a relief." Twilight sighed.
Spike, Starlight, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders were all confused watching the scene.
"I'm confused." Scootaloo said.
"Me too." Sweetie Belle said.
"Same for me." Apple Bloom said.
"Ditto." Spike said.
"Twilight." Starlight called out Twilight's name, making Twilight turn her head toward Starlight and her group.
Before Starlight can ask a question, Twilight already knew what she was trying to ask.
"It's a long story." Twilight informed, which made Starlight raise an eyebrow.
"Basically, Egghead here, did an experiment with Discord's magic and it went totally wrong and somehow, it summoned these dudes." Rainbow explained as she pointed a hoof at Squirrel and Delirious.
"Umm, yeah. It's... kind of my fault that they are here." Twilight reluctantly said with a few nervous giggles.
Starlight, Spike, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders soaked all the information.
"I see." Starlight said, still trying to process the information.
"Although, I also think it's my fault as well." Discord said, which earned a few surprised glances from everyone. Was the lord of chaos blaming himself for Twilight's actions?
"Discord, what do you mean?" Twilight asked.
"Oh, well I think it's my fault for letting you convince me to be part of your experiment." Discord said it with a teasing tone.
Twilight frowned at Discord's tease. "Discord. I... I." Twilight tried to think of what to say, but nothing came out.
"You what?"
Twilight still couldn't think of anything, so she just groaned. "Nevermind."
"Well, I think it's also cool that Squirrely and Deliriously are here." Pinkie calmy said as she continued to get petted, like a Dog. "Especially Delirious, with his little grabbers on his hoovsies. They feel nice."
"Umm Pinkie, they are called fingers." Twilight informed.
"Well, I like Delirious' fingers. Keep fingering, Delirious."
Pinkie's words caught Delirious and Squirrel by surprise. Delirious put a hand to mouth to block out his chuckles, but unfortunately some escaped. Squirrel was laughing for a few seconds, but he put both of his Squirrelly hands on his mouth.
Everyone else in the room was confused on why they were laughing.
"Uhh, Delirious? Squirrel? Why are ya laughin'?" Applejack asked.
Delirious and Squirrel eventually had their chuckles and laughs toned down, they were going to tell them what it was, but they stopped themselves, since there were children in the room.
"Uhmm... well... i-it's nothing, it's nothing." Delirious said with a few small chuckles.
"Yeah. Just ignore that." Squirrel added with a few chuckles as well.
Twilight was still confused, but she decided not to press on or try to understand what they were laughing at.
"Ok. Well *Ahem* I think we should continue to ask more questions." Twilight said as she prepared to ask another question, however Rarity stopped her.
"Actually darling, I think we should leave." Rarity said.
"Actually, Rarity's right. It's gettin' late an' Big Mac an' Granny Smith might get worried about me an' Apple Bloom." Applejack said.
"Yeah *Yawn* I'm getting a little tired." Rainbow yawned.
"Yeah, I guess we should all head to sleep." Twilight agreed, although she felt a little disappointed that her questions would have to wait for another day.
"Wait a second." Delirious said out loud, catching everyone's attention.
"Uh, yes Delirious? What's wrong?" Fluttershy asked.
"I gotta ask, where am I and Squirrel going to sleep at?"
"Oh, I haven't even thought about that." Twilight realized and instantly started to think of a quick solution.
"Well, Squirrel can sleep at my cottage." Fluttershy suggested.
In an instant, Squirrel denied that idea and refused the suggestion. "Nope, I'm good." Squirrel shut down the suggestion quickly.
Someponies were confused by his reaction. "Uhh Squirrel, why did you deny Fluttershy's suggestion?" Starlight asked.
Squirrel shivered at the thought of when he first met Fluttershy. She held him close to her chest and was suffocating him in her Pony skin, even though she misunderstood him. Still, he didn't feel comfortable being close to her and plus, she had animals there and he was pretty sure they would freak out when they see him.
"I... just don't think it's a good idea." Squirrel said with a slight hesitance.
"Ok... so where are you going to sleep at?" Starlight asked.
"I could have Squirrel and Delirious sleep at my castle." Twilight suggested. "I have some guest rooms."
"Yeah sure, why not." Delirious agreed.
"Yeah, I also agree." Squirrel also agreed.
"Ok, I guess we got that figured out." Starlight said.
"Wait, I have one more question to ask that needs to get answered. It's very important." Delirious said.
"What is it, Delirious?" Applejack asked.
"Do you have any Teddy Bears?"
Everyone was thrown off by the weird question. Why would it be important that a grown man would need a Teddy Bear? Although this was strange, Twilight still answered Delirious.
"Umm... no, we don't have any Teddy Bears." Twilight answered, wiping confusion off her face.
Just as Delirious was about to release an "Awwww" of disappointment, he heard a snap and saw a flash of white flash in front of him. However, it was only half a second, since it cleared up to reveal... a floating Teddy Bear.
Instantly, Delirious had sparkles in his eyes as he grabbed the soft Bear and hugged it to his chest. "Teddy Bear!" Delirious exclaimed happily.
While Delirious was hugging and nuzzling the Teddy Bear, some of the Mane Six looked confused and were thrown off.
"A Teddy Bear?" Rarity said with a questionable tone.
"Isn't Delirious a grown Hu-min?" Sweetie Belle questioned as she whispered to the rest of the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
"Yeah, he sure is." Apple Bloom whispered back.
"For a grown Ape, he sure seems to acts like a Foal." Scootaloo said, which Delirious heard, but he didn't know what exactly he heard.
"Huh? What did you say?" Delirious asked as he lifted his head and stopped hugging the Teddy Bear.
"Uh, n-nothin'. She said nothin'." Apple Bloom said with a sheepish look.
"That's what I thought." Delirious had narrow eyes of suspicion, but they were slightly widened when Delirious had a question creep in his head. "By the way, how did this Teddy Bear even appear?"
"That would be my doing." Discord said.
"Wow, so you made that made a Teddy Bear with your own magic?"
"*Snap* Eeyup." Discord said as he snapped to have the same exact voice as Big Mac until he snapped again to get rid of the voice. "*Snap* Oh and I can't just summon Teddy Bears, I can make *Snap* Grizzly Bears appear."
When Discord snapped again, Harry the Bear appeared, who appeared to be sleeping.
"I also can make Polar Bears appear *Snap*." Discord snapped his talon claws, a Polar Bear appeared beside Harry. The Polar Bear looked around in confusion of its surroundings, wondering how it got where it was right now.
"Wow, so you can pretty much do anything." Delirious said in a amazed tone.
"Yep, I can do everything with my chaos *Snap*." Discord snapped his talon fingers to make the Grizzly Bear and Polar Bear dissappear.
"I can even summon this *Snap*." When Discord snapped his fingers again, a giant Teddy Bear was behind the throne Delirious was sitting on. Everyone saw it, but Delirious who had a confused expression.
"Uhh, I don't see anything. What did you summon?" Delirious asked.
"Delirious, you might want to turn around." Squirrel advised.
Delirious looked puzzled, but he listened to what Squirrel said. "What do mean, Squir-"
Instantly, Delirious stopped his sentence when his eyes sparkled from what he was seeing. He saw a giant Teddy Bear.
"OH MY GOSH! It's a giant Teddy Bear!" Delirious exclaimed excitingly as he dropped his small Teddy Bear, got off the throne, and rushed to the giant Teddy Bear to hug it. With it being so tall, Delirious pretty much had his whole body on Teddy's crotch area.
"THIS IS AMAZING!" Delirious started to laugh happily as he pushed his body deeper into the fluffy, soft Bear. He loved the soft embrace and really wanted to cuddle the giant Teddy Bear, until he felt something tap his shoulder a few times.
Out of instinct, Delirious pushed himself off the giant Teddy Bear and turned around to see who or what was tapping his shoulder. When he turned his head, he saw that it was Discord who was behind him.
"Yes?" Delirious questioned.
"So, Delirious. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to shorten the Bear's height because somepony *Ahem* Twilight, said that it's 'too tall' for the castle. So, I'm gonna have to lower the size *Snap*.
As Discord snapped his talon fingers, a flash of white was around the big Teddy Bear, only for the flash to dissappear and reveal that the Teddy Bear that was once giant, had shrunken in size. However, even though it had shrunk, it was still taller and bigger than Delirious. Still, Delirious had his arms wrapped around the soft Bear's body.
"Well, at least I can hug Teddy properly now." Delirious said as he nuzzled his face on the soft Teddy's face. "Now I'm ready to go to sleep, what about you Squirrel?"
"Yeah, *Yawn*... I'm ready to get some sleep." Squirrel stated as a little yawn escaped from his mouth. "So, where are we going to sleep at?" Squirrel asked as he turned his head toward Twilight.
"Oh, well actually, I'll have Starlight lead you into your Guest Rooms." Twilight said as she turned her head to Starlight. "Starlight, can you lead Delirious and Squirrel to their guest rooms?"
"I sure can." Starlight said as she turned to the door and walked toward it. "C'mon Delirious and Squirrel, follow me."
Delirious and Squirrel both started walking behind Starlight, which had Delirious walk with the giant Teddy Bear in his arms with the normal sized Teddy in his right hand. They exited the throne room.
The Mane Six (except Twilight), Cutie Mark Crusaders, Discord, and Spike were all thinking to head to sleep as well.
"Well Twilight, me an' Apple Bloom are goin' to head back to the orchard. Granny is probably worried about. Good night, sugarcube." Applejack said as she started to walk to the door. "C'mon, Apple Bloom, we're leavin'."
"Comin', sis." Apple Bloom walked away from the rest of the Cutie Mark Crusaders and walked to the exit with Applejack.
"Good night, y'all." Applejack and Apple Bloom said as they left through the door.
"I guess we should also take our leave. C'mon, Sweetie Belle." Rarity said as she walked to the door.
"See you tomorrow, Scootaloo." Sweetie said to Scootaloo before she turned around and walked to her sister. "Coming, sis."
"Good night, darlings." Rarity said as she and Sweetie Belle exited.
"Well, this Draconequus is getting rather sleepy, but I'm ready to see what chaos might unfold from our new guests tomorrow, so good night Twilight." Discord said as he snapped with his Bear paw and disappeared from the Throne Room.
"I should also leave, the animals are probably worried about me. Good night, Twilight" Fluttershy said as she walked to door.
"Me too, I got a surprise to make for Deliriously and Squirrely. Good night, Twiley." Pinkie said as she bounced to the door that Fluttershy was barely leaving.
As Twilight saw them leave, she felt something tap her shoulder, so she turned her head and saw floating Rainbow with a scowling expression and crossed hooves.
"Oh, Rainbow, what's... wrong?" Twilight asked with a slight pause.
"I think you already know, you egghead." Rainbow answered with a hint of frustration in her voice.
Twilight formed a sheepish tone in her voice as she answered. "W-whatever do you mean?"
"What I mean is that you blamed me for Squirrel's arrival."
"Well umm..." Twilight tried to think of a way to dismiss Rainbow's conclusion, but she couldn't. All Twilight did was release a sigh, knowing she got caught. "Look, Rainbow. I had to think of an excuse to stop Ponyville from worrying and I thought that maybe... it could be one of your pranks. So I-I hope you understand." She flashed a sheepish smile, hoping Rainbow would understand.
The only response that she got from Rainbow was a deeper scowling. Twilight still kept a huge silly smile. However, Twilight was starting to have some doubts, seeing that Rainbow hadn't changed her expression. Twilight felt like she was going to get smacked across the face for that, so she prepared herself to get smacked, until...
"You know what Twilight, I completely understand." Rainbow responded in a normal tone, not even a slight hint of frustration in her response.
This confused Twilight a lot as she was mentally shocked, but also a little grateful that Rainbow wouldn't kick her flank. But to confirm that Rainbow wasn't mad at her, she asked a question.
"Ok... are you sure you're not even a little mad?"
"What? No, I completely understand your reasoning and your actions." Rainbow answered innocently as she flashed a innocent expression. It was almost like a different Pony possessed her.
"Uhmm, ok then. Good night, Rainbow." Twilight hesitantly said.
"Good night, Twilight. C'mon Scoots, let's go." Rainbow said innocently as she stopped floating with her wings and set herself on the ground to walk to the door.
Scootaloo was watching the entire scene going on and even she was a little thrown off by her idol's behavior. However, she didn't say anything as she walked toward Rainbow and left the throne room with Rainbow, leaving only a relieved Twilight in the room.
Twilight released a sigh of relief as she closed her eyes, being glad that this chaotic day was about to be over.
"Uhmm, Twilight?"
Twilight opened up her eyes to see who called her name and she saw that it was Spike who called her name.
"Oh, Spike, what's wrong?" Twilight asked.
"Well, I just wanted to make sure you were ok, since you seem a little stressed from all that happened." Spike answered.
"Oh, well thank you for checking on me Spike, but I'm ok, just a little stressed." Twilight put a hoof on her forehead as she took a deep breath.
"So, what are we going to do about Delirious and Squirrel?"
Twilight thought about it for a bit before she answered. "I don't know, but hopefully we can figure out a way to return them home. *Sigh* It's going be stressful, but... I promise I'm going to get them back, no matter what."
"Hmm... well, Delirious and Squirrel seem cool, but how are you going to introduce them Ponyville without causing anypony to worry, especially Celestia an-"
"CELESTIA!?" Twilight interrupted Spike's questioning as her eyes widened as she realized that she forgot to message Celestia about the chaos that happened in Ponyville.
"I forgot to inform Celestia about Delirious and Squirrel!" Twilight exclaimed, having stress slowly fill her head once again.
Instantly, her horn glowed and she summoned a quill and piece of paper that was floating from Twilight's magic. She then levitated the quill and paper to Spike. "Spike, take a letter."
"Uhh... sure Twilight." Spike then grabbed the quill and paper and prepared to write on the paper.
"Ok, *Ahem* Dear Princess Celestia..."
"So, here is one of the Guest Rooms." Starlight said as she opened the door to the Guest Room with her magic.
Delirious and Squirrel entered as they looked around the room.
"This looks nice." Delirious commented.
"It looks cozy." Squirrel added.
"Yeah, we want to make our guests relaxed, although we don't usually get many guests, especially ones that come from another dimension." Starlight said.
"Well, I guess I'll take this room." Delirious said as he dropped the different sized Teddy Bears on the bed. "Also, do you have a Bathroom? I kind of need to go right now."
"We do." Starlight then pointed her hoof toward the door. "When you go into the Hallway, turn left and go to the end of the Hallway and you'll see a door with handles, but by the right of it, is another door, which is the Bathroom."
"Ok, thanks." Delirious held a thumbs up as he dashed from the room.
"So what about my room?" Squirrel asked Starlight.
"Your room is beside Delirious' room." Starlight then left Delirious' room as she turned right when she made it to the Hallway. Squirrel followed her and saw that she opened a door that was indeed by Delirious's door.
Squirrel followed Starlight into Squirrel's room, which looked exactly like Delirious' room. "Hmm, nice room. It looks interesting." Squirrel said with a smile as he looked around.
"Umm, yeah. It's... the same exact room that Delirious has."
"I know, I'm just joking around."
"Oh, ok." Starlight then looked at Squirrel's brain, reminded that she was casually talking to Zombie Squirrel, which made her self-aware and form some curiosity on Squirrel.
"Are you ok? You seem to be spacing out." Squirrel asked, which snapped Starlight out of her curious staring.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to stare at your... umm... brain. It just makes me... question how you're walking and... well, basically everything else." Starlight stated.
"Yeah, I question that too."
Starlight then released a yawn. "Well, I guess my curiosity can wait, I'm getting *Yawn* tired." Starlight then walked out of Squirrel's room. "Good night, Squirrel."
"Good night." Squirrel said back as he stood by his doorframe to watch Starlight leave.
While Starlight was leaving, Delirious was coming back from his leaking break. "God damn, that was a nice piss." Delirious muttered to himself.
Delirious then saw that Starlight was leaving. "Oh Starlight, are you leaving?"
"I am. Its getting late and I'm really getting tired from all this... information that happened today." Starlight said.
"Is it because me and Squirrel arrived?"
"Yeah." Starlight said with a chuckle. "I'm going to sleep. Good night, Delirious." She then walked away.
"Good night, Starlight." Delirious called out as he continued to walk to his room.
Delirious then saw Squirrel by a doorframe beside his room. "Oh hey Squirrel, you're having your own room?"
"Yeah." Squirrel answered.
"Awww, I thought we were going to sleep in the same room, Squirreliam." Delirious said with a teasing tone.
"If we slept in the same room, there would be spooning involved and it's disgusting to bone a Dead Squirrel." Squirrel joked with a smile.
Delirious had some small chuckles escape from his mouth. "What about nutting? Don't Squirrels lov- hahaha." Delirious couldn't finish his sentence when his laughing got the better of him.
Squirrel also started laughing as well. "Shut the fuck, Delirious. Why don't you spoon your Teddy Bears?" Squirrel managed to say while laughing.
"Whatever, I'm going to sleep. Good night, Squirrely." Delirious said as he started to close the door to his room.
"Good night too, Delirious." Squirrel replied back before Delirious' door closed.
'Well, I should head to bed too.' Squirrel thought as he turned to his door. However, as turned to completely face forward toward his door, he saw that Spike was beside him and had widened eyes.
"Oh, hey Spike." Squirrel said casually, not clearly aware of Spike's shocked expression.
Spike didn't know what to say on what he heard, but he got the will to say hey back to Squirrel. "H-hey... Squirrel."
"So, did you need something?"
Spike slowly shook his head, since he still couldn't process what he and Delirious were joking about.
"Oh ok, I'm going to bed. Good night, Spike." Squirrel said as he entered his room and closed the door behind him, leaving a staggered Dragon in the hallway by himself.
Spike then shook his head as he continued to walk down the hallway. "I need to clean my ears." Spike said to himself.
Squirrel walked to his bed and got on his bed to lay his head on the pillow. "Ahhh, now I can relax."
Squirrel put his hands behind his head as he laid on his bed. He was ready to close his eye and get some shut eye, but it didn't seem to work, since he had some curious thoughts sneak into his mind.
'Huh, I wonder if I'll ever get home. If I do, would I stop being a Squirrel or will I just never see my home... again. Damn, that sounds dark... Well, at least I know Delirious is here, I don't know if Kyle or Cartoonz is here, but I hope they are ok, wherever they are. Still, I wonder how everything is going back at home, especially for my viewers. They are probably worried, not knowing that I'm in a FUCKING dimension of talking Ponies.' Squirrel let out a yawn and started to feel his eye close a little bit.
'Well, I guess I'll see what happens tomorrow. Fuck, do I have a long... day ahead of me.'
Squirrel then closed his eye completely, which made him fall asleep. Soon to experience a dream experience.
