//------------------------------// // 4: Time to tell our friends** // Story: Love Conquers All // by BronyWriter186 //------------------------------// "Well that wasn't so bad, but now we got to worry about telling our friends just remember you shouldn't try to go near Pinkie Pie too much and we can't go to Sugarcube Corner so Pinkie Pie is for sure last," Twilight said to Rainbow Dash well returning home on the train. "Yeah, but you have to remember that Rarity is pansexual so she most likely won't judge and AJ- BUCK we forgot to tell Spike not to tell AJ," Rainbow said. "Hey speaking of Spike and AJ, why doesn't Spike live with her?" Rainbow asked. "Granny Smith and Big Mac won't let Spike move in, because they have had to rebuild way too many wooden buildings because of AppleSpike, and Spike would only add to the damage," Twilight answered. "Also I told him first thing to not tell AJ, until we were ready, as soon as we started dating." "Oh thank Celestia," Rainbow said. "How are you always ahead of these problems?" Rainbow Dash asked. "That's what happens when you constantly worry about basically everything," Twilight answered. "Oh and just so you know I'm going to have to make us invisible and we are going to have to fly above the clouds to make sure Pinkie won't find us." "Sorry Twi but we are going to have to drink these if we want to avoid Pinkie Pie," Rainbow said, bringing out two vials of pink liquid. "Why, it looks like it's just plain old pink lemonade?" Twilight asked. "Because Zecora and Pinkie made this for everyone who wanted to not be followed by Pinkie Pie," Rainbow answered. "Wait did you not get a box?" Rainbow asked. "No I did not get a box I was given a box of vials full of a purple liquid from Pinkie though like a month ago, could that of been it?" Twilight asked. "Maybe, but me, AJ, and Rarity all got pink ones and Fluttershy knows the recipe by heart, partly because she helped make the recipe with Zecora," Dash answered. After Twilight and Rainbow Got to back Ponyville "Ok let's drink this stupid vial and get this over with," Rainbow Dash said. After they drank the vials of pink liquid, with doing so Twilight almost puked, from it tasting like literal shit, but thankfully keep it down. "Ok, we drank them so now Pinkie won't be able to find us using any of her weird senses?" Twilight asked. "Correct, but you should still cast that spell and we'll still be taking the back way to Sweet Apple Acres," Rainbow answered. Twilight shook her head and started casting the spell when something stopped her magic. "Wait, what is happening?" Twilight asked. "Hey, Twi can you hand me that vial I gave you?" Rainbow asked. After Twilight handed Rainbow the vial Rainbow laughed and said," You can't cast spells on anyone who drinks this potion. I guess we will just have to-" "I know let me try a different spell that isn't cast on us," Twilight said cheerfully. Twilight tried to cast a spell she made to make them invisible to one or more ponies. She tried and tried and it didn't work. "Well we'll just have to go the long way around and hope that Pinkie doesn't come looking for us," Rainbow said. "Ok, let's just go," Twilight said. As they started walking to Sweet Apple Acres they heard a super party cannon, making them stop in their tracks. "Buck!" they said together. "It's Fluttershy and Rarity's birthdays today," Rainbow said. "We have to get back to the castle before Pinkie and the others get there, go run there and get the presents ready you go slow Pinkie and the mob down." "Ok, just make sure no one sees you at all," Twilight said. "We don't want anyone to get any ideas about us, yet." "Just go remember Pinkie Pie is on a cannon that was made to be as fast as a flying pegasus, that's twice as fast as I can normally walk," Rainbow semi-yelled at Twilight. After Rainbow said that Twilight was off towards Pinkie and probably 80% of the town. After she finally got to Pinkie she noticed she was still only at Sugarcube Corner. 'Thank Celestia, Rainbow should have more than enough time to get to the castle and get everything ready.' Twilight thought to herself. "Hey, Twilight do you know where Rainbow is?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Uh, what?" Twilight asked, semi-dazed. "Come up here," Pinkie commanded Twilight. "Where is your marefriend, you know Rainbow Dahlia Dash?" Pinkie Pie whispered. "Wait, how do you know that Dashie and I are dating?" Twilight whispered back. "I forced Spike to tell me after I went to the castle while you were in Canterlot," Pinkie whispered. "Oh, and don't yell at him I have access to a lot of very rare diamonds from every part of the world." "Ok, but did you tell anyone?" Twilight asked. "Nope, I made a pact with myself to never tell anyone someone else's secret to anyone unless they told me to," Pinkie whispered. "Just so you know everyone in town is coming to the party so we had to use multiple ovens, so I have cakes baking in your ovens and told Spike not to go in the kitchen at all. I recommend for you to do the same," Pinkie whispered. "Now go get to your castle, so you can get fully ready for all of us!" Pinkie yelled. After Getting to the Castle "Dashie, hurry up and get out here, and don't go in the kitchen!" Twilight yelled. "Ok, but you didn't have to yell," Rainbow said from beside her. "Sorry, I didn't see you there," Twilight said while blushing. "I noticed, Twily. Now, why shouldn't I go in the kitchen?" Rainbow asked. "Pinkie is using...," Twilight started to say. "Go upstairs now, and stay as far away from the kitchen as possible," Twilight commanded. "Why?" Rainbow asked. "Pinkie Pie is cooking in the kitchen, which means she might be using the impure version of what you ate," Twilight answered. Rainbow Dash instantly ran upstairs to their room, while Twilight sent a message to Pinkie Pie through a spell Zecora taught her, asking if she used any impure draconequui immortality shards in the cakes. "No, I didn't, I knew that Rainbow got the immortality shard," Pinkie said. "Don't tell Discord, but I'm part draconequus, it's only 25% though," Pinkie whispered. "You can't be serious, you're an earth pony," Twilight questioned. "Actually my whole entire family is draconequui, well except my father and grandfather on my mother's side, also you did know that draconequui can change form just like changelings can, right," Pinkie answered, quietly. "Wait, aren't you related to the cakes?" Twilight asked. "Yes, I am, but only to Mr.Cake, and before you ask, yes Mrs.Cake knows that Mr.Cake and I are draconequui," Pinkie whispered,"also shh!!!!" "Ok, I get it," Twilight whispered. "I'll go get Rainbow," Twilight said. "Hurry, our friends are wondering where you and Rainbow were, and I had to lie to them, they didn't buy it," Pinkie said,"so they will be wondering where you rushed off too and get her ready unless you want to be found out before you're ready." "Ok," Twilight said. Twilight then teleported to hers and Rainbow's room. "Rainbow, it's fine Pinkie didn't use any of the impure shards. She actually knew that you got some shards from Discord," Twilight said. "Cool, but how did she know?" Rainbow asked. "I'll have to tell you somewhere else some other time, in the "special" room," Twilight answered. After Twilight and Rainbow were done talking Twilight asked Rainbow if she wanted to tell their friends in private or tell the whole town all at once. "I think we should tell our friends in private first," Rainbow said. "Tell us what?" AppleJack asked. Twilight and Rainbow fell silent. "Yes, I would like to know as well," Rarity said. "Fine, but you have to promise not to freak out at all especially you Rarity," Rainbow said. "You want to tell them or should I?" Rainbow asked Twilight. "Let's both tell them," Twilight answered. "We are engaged and having a foal," they both said. "Wait one little, apple-picking, gem finding, party planning second. I knew you two were dating but engaged and having a foal, I did not know," Pinkie Pie screamed. Both AJ and Rarity fell completely silent and dumbfounded. "Wait, first off you two were datin'?" AJ asked. "Yes," Twilight answered. "Ok, and now you two are engaged and havin' a foal?" AJ asked. "Yes, and Yes," Rainbow answered. "And finally how long have ya two been together?" AJ asked. "Two weeks," they answered. "TWO WEEKS! Are you two bucking insane?" AJ and Rarity asked. "Hold on you two I got this one. Since they're having a foal they had two and ONLY two choices: either get married before the foal is born or get an abortion and if you surprised by the foal part you guys forget we all have known each other for almost 6 years," Pinkie said. "Why do they only have those two choices?" Rarity and AJ asked. "Because my husband made a law forcing all royalty who are having foals to get married or get an abortion before the foal is born," Fluttershy answered. "Wait, you knew?" Pinkie, AJ, and Rarity asked. "Yes, because of my husband's ability to teleport pregnant mares without hurting the foal I kind of found out fairly quickly," Fluttershy answered. 5 minutes later "Wait, I'm getting a baby brother and another mother," Scootaloo said, excitedly. "How long were you standing there Scoots?" Rainbow asked. "About 7 minutes, why am I in trouble?" Scootaloo asked in a sad tone. "No you aren't in trouble, but you shouldn't eavesdrop on adults you never know when you might hear something you don't want to hear," Rainbow Dash warned. "I know all that stuff already, I'm 18 years old, or did you forget?" Scootaloo asked. "No, I didn't forget Scoots, but that isn't what I'm talking about if you want to know Twi and I will tell you later," Rainbow Dash said. "I'm fine you can tell me when you think that I'm ready, but I want to tell you, Twilight, and Rarity something later, but bye, I have to go talk to Sweetie," Scootaloo said. ------------Simultaneous 'Cut' Text (between Mane 6 and Scootaloo)------------ ------Mane 6------ "Well that was very interesting," AppleJack said. "Agreed," all of them said. "Ok, what were we just talking about?" Twilight asked. ------Scootaloo------ "Hey, Sweetie I told them that I wanted to talk them, and I also have some news that I just found out, but I think I should tell you in private," Scootaloo said. "Ok, we can go over to the backyard to talk but let's hurry," Sweetie Belle said. ------Mane 6------ "I think we were talking about how you guys wanted the ceremony to go and where it was going to be," Rarity answered. "Oh right, well I was thinking that we could do the ceremony here in the castle and have Pinkie and AJ be the bridesmaids," Rainbow Dash said. "That won't work," Pinkie said, sadly. "Why not?" Twilight asked. "Because I can't be a bridesmaid at a wedding anymore, seeing as I'm engaged to Cheese Sandwich, and it can't be here because the law states it has to be in Canterlot Castle it being a Royal Wedding," Pinkie answered. "Oh I- Wait, Cheese Sandwich asked you to marry him when did this happen?" Rainbow asked. "Oh, it happened the day you two left for Canterlot, that's actually the reason I came here that day, I was going to ask Twilight to perform the wedding, but as you know I didn't get to," Pinkie said. ------Scootaloo------ {In the castle's backyard} "Ok, what is this news you have?" Sweetie asked. "I just found out that Twilight and Rainbow Dash are engaged and having a foal, but you can't tell anyone I'm only telling you because we are engaged," Scootaloo answered. "And before I forget I was thinking we could have Twilight do the ceremony, as long as it's ok with her," Scootaloo said. "Of course, but I now that I thinking about it how about we ask Fluttershy to perform it," Sweetie said. "But only royalty and city leadership can marry two ponies," Scootaloo said. "Fluttershy is married to Discord who is still considered a lord, which is royalty, making Fluttershy a royal," Sweetie said as she blushed at her intelligence. Scootaloo laughed. "Why are you laughing?" Sweetie asked. "Because I just realized that you and I are almost just like Twilight and Rainbow Dash. The only differences are that your not an alicorn, you are the pregnant one, and neither one of us is royalty, yet," Scootaloo said. "What do you mean, yet?" Sweetie asked. "Well since my adoptive mother is going to be a princess soon that means I will be princess soon or is that not how that works," Scootaloo said. "Huh, you are right well that is cool because that would mean that our foal and I will be royalty after you and I get married or you become royalty, whichever comes last," Sweetie Belle said. ------Mane 6------ "Of course I'll perform your wedding Pinkie, but why not-" Twilight said before Pinkie stepped on her hoof."What was that for?" Twilight asked. "I need to talk to you in the hallway. Oh, all you guys need to go to your rooms in the Castle and put on the clothing I left you," Pinkie said. No one moved. "NOW!!" Pinkie commanded. They all ran to their room in the castle. "Now you put these on," Pinkie said as she handed Twilight a jeweled scarf and a 'Twilight'-colored sock. "Why?" Twilight started to ask, before Pinkie glared at her,"nevermind." "Now teleport the CMC to us all three of them, and don't ask questions," Pinkie said. 'POOF' "What just happened?" the CMC asked. "Just put these on, and don't ask questions," Pinkie said as she handed them jeweled necklaces. "Ok," they said. "Now do not go anywhere," Pinkie said. For a second Pinkie Pie was surrounded by a ball of magic then appeared again as an alicorn. "How did you do that?" the CMC asked. "Girls just stand still and get ready for a teleportation," alicorn Pinkie Pie said. "Wait, now don't freak out, but will this teleportation hurt my foal?" Sweetie Belle asked. "What do you mean, Sweetie?" Twilight, Pinkie, and Apple Bloom asked. Sweetie Belle lifted up the dress she was wearing. "No, this spell won't hurt your foal, but you better tell you sister, Sweetie," Pinkie asked. "Scootaloo is this your foal as well? If so, you will be telling your mother as soon as we get back." Twilight said. "Yes, it is," Scootaloo said, embarrassed. Pinkie's newfound horn lit up for a second and a full set of clothes appeared on her. Then it lit again making Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Flurry Heart, and two unknown alicorns appear with full sets of armor (all but Flurry Heart who was wearing multicolored socks). Finally, she turned back to an earth pony. "Now that we are all here let us go, and don't ask any questions," Pinkie Pie said. 'double-hoof tap' 'POOF' Now all of them, plus the rest of the mane 6 and Discord were in one of the five chaos planes. "Who summoned me here?" Discord yelled. "I did brother," Pinkie Pie said. "You, how? Wait, why did you just call me brother?" Discord asked. "Oh, maybe this would help," Pinkie said. Then she was covered with a ball of magic. 'POOF' Now Pinkie Pie was in her true form a draconequus that only differed from Discord by one aspect all her colors were based on the colored pink. "Now, first I need to call my fiance here," Pinkie said. "Cheese get your flank over to the fifth plane of chaos." "Sheesh I hear you, you don't have to yell," a random draconequus said. "Who and what are you," Celestia asked the weird being. "I'm Cheese Sandwich and I'm a draconequus of chaos and Discord's twin brother," Cheese Sandwich said. "Most of you know me in this form," he said as he changed to an earth pony. "Wait, is that you Pandemonium. I thought you were dead. I saw you die after Accord found you," Discord said. "What, no, no, our mother didn't try to kill me she just banished me to live as an earth pony in Saddle Arabia for a while and when I came back home you were the bloody ruler of Equestria and I decided that after I saw that I went to these two as an alicorn and told them that I could give them immortality and make them alicorns, which at the time was a myth. They almost instantly accepted and I told them to go to the Tree of Harmony, barrow the elements, and use them on you as a punishment. Which as you all know the did mostly what I said," Pandemonium said. "So you were the one you made these two alicorns and told them how to imprison me. I thought Fate, I mean, father did it," Discord said, angrily. After the Argument Ended "Now that that's over with, let us get to why I brought us here," Pinkie said. "What, are you going to forget to introduce us," the two random alicorns said. "Oh, sorry girls," Pandemonium said. "Everyone these are mine and Pinkie's daughters, Dewdrop and Night Flare, and don't ask how," he commanded. "Now, Pandemonium and I are engaged, so we want to get married, but there is one problem Pandemonium can't step an inch in any church, castle, or any other place where he and I can "normally" get married, so we are going to need to put a portal in Equestria that is shaped like a Church to make it seems like we are in Equestria so ponies don't ask questions. So does anyone have any ideas how we are supposed to do that?" Pinkie asked. "Why can't you two just have a ceremony outside in Ponyville Square or in Sugarcube Corner. It is technically legal and is not is not a normal place to get married," Twilight answered. "Wait, is that really legal?" Pandemonium and Pinkie asked Celestia. "Yes, it has been legal for the past 40 years," Celestia answered. "Well that's awesome," Pinkie and Pandemonium said. "Oh, we should get back," Pinkie said. "All you have to do get back, unless you are a chaos draconequus, is just say 'return me to where I was', as you can see it doesn't work on chaos draconequus, but if you ever want to return here to rest or anything else just tap you hoof twice and once more, while here, if you want the rest of us here as well," she said.
