That's right readers Love with Twist is back on track baby.
Chapter 04 is picking up a head of steam. So for those loyal followers of the fic, here's a sneak peek:
“Hmm, where could it be?” Snails thought to himself.
After the opening ceremony had concluded, the students were free to explore the school before first period. Snails took the opportunity to seek out the library. After years of reading with Twist, he found self as a bookworm of sorts. After splitting away from the group he trudged the halls, until he finally reached his destination.
“Ah ha, found you, eh,” he cheered.
He then walked into the trove of knowledge with an eager grin. Unknown to him, Twist had the same idea. A few moments later, she reached the library as well.
“Whew, it was quite a walk to get her,” she chuckled a bit.
She then heads inside. When she looked at all the selections, her eyes sparkle with anticipation.
“Oh wow, I’ve never seen so many books in all my life,” she beamed.
She then headed to service desk. There she met a earth pony mare with violet coat and a dirty blonde mane tied up in a bun and frameless glasses in the same style as hers.
“Excuse me, miss,” she greeted.
The mare then looked up from her paperwork and spoke with a welcoming smile.
“Hello there. Welcome to Canterlot High Library. I’m Lilac Quill the librarian. How can I help you?” she smiled.
“Hi, my name is Twist,” she responded. “I wanted to get a library card.”
This got an enthusiastic grin for her.
“Of course, just fill these out and I’ll get your card,” she happily said, as she gave Twist the card form.
Twist read over the rules and filled out the paperwork rather quickly. Lilac then handed her the library card.
“Enjoy your voyage into knowledge~” she spoke with glee.
“I will…” Twist smiled.
She then left Lilac to the venture into the library. As she surveyed the aisle, she came across a copy of the latest book of Nightmane the Luna Avenger.
“What luck! I didn’t think the new book would’ve been out yet,” she exclaimed.
As she was about to reach for it, the book floated away to the other side of the shelf.
“Hey!” she shouted.
“Sorry, eh. But I’ve been dying to read this one,” spoke the voice from behind the shelf.
Her ears immediately perked up. She that voice all too well. It was him.
“So…you like Nightmane?” she asked.
“Oh yeah. I’ve loved it since I was a foal back in grade school,” the voice replied.
“What’s your favorite book?” she asked.
She could hear him tap his chin.
“I’d have to say Nightmane and the Door of Truth,” he answered.
She remembered that was the first book they read together as friends.
“Why that one?” she queried.
“Well it had a great story with plenty of surprising twist throughout. It holds a special place in my heart,” he confessed.
“Why?”
“Well…it was the first time I got to hang out with a dear friend.”
His words made her blush.
“She sounds important to you,” she spoke.
“Yeah, eh…” he spoke, as she heard him come around the corner. “How’d you know it was a mare? I didn’t-”As soon as he turned the corner, his voice left him. All he could do is gaze at the beautiful mare now before him.
“Hey, Snails…it’s been awhile…” she smiled.
