Twilight sighed as even more guards arrived to place all the "neccessary spells" on Twilight's castle.
Even though Sombra was a colt now the royal guard wasn't taking any chances.
Twilight reviewed the list of spells being put on the castle.
Non burning spell ( twilight felt a little silly for not putting that spell in the library herself)
Weak enemy armour spell ( How was a colt going to get armour?)
Strong ally armour spell ( there isn't any armour in the castle anyway)
No alcohol spell ( there isn't a drop of alcohol except for cider in Ponyville thanks to pinkie)
No poison spell ( HOW IN THE NAME OF CELESTIA WOULD A COLT GET POISON?!?)
No flying spell ( SOMBRA DOESNT EVEN HAVE WINGS!!!!)
No crystal spell ( THE CASTLE IS MADE OF CRYSTALS!!!)
Twilight suddenly looked up in horror as she read that. No crystal spell.
10 minutes later
Applejack was going to the market with Rarity when pinkie yelled.
"WOBBLY KNEE"!
"ITCHY EYE"!!
"WHIRLY TAIL"!!!
Rarity pulled out the book of pinkie sense and started searching for something.
"What is it this time Rarity"? Applejack asked worryingly.
"Apparently twilight is beating up royal guards because they tried to put up a no crystal spell in her crystal castle and almost destroyed the library". Rarity said raising a eyebrow.
"That's weirdly specific". Applejack said.
"Two words darling. Town motto". Rarity said gestering at the town sign.
"Point taken".
The town motto was : Pinkie will be pinkie.
Twilight had crossed off all the silly defense spells and put in some useful spells.
She was also hiding all the books about advance or dangerous magic in her study.
Along were all the books that might spark some evil in Sombra.
Spike had to spend an hour arguing with Twilight about whether or not to make a list of all the dangerous books.
Spike had surprisingly won that argument with. "What if Sombra found the list"?
Sombra was sleeping while all this was going on but surprisingly he seemed restless in his sleep like he knew everything that was happening around his subconscious body.
After kicking out the last of the guards twilight finally rested.
With the spells up and running Twilight decided to explore the castle. Of course it was hard not to step on Sombra as he was underneath Twilight the whole time.
"You do know you don't have to stay near me all the time". Twilight said annoyed.
Sombra often had nightmares and he figured out where Twilight slept so every night Twilight would put him in the bed and the next morning he'll be next to Twilight.
Sombra just nodded quietly.
"So why do you stay so close to me"? Twilight asked.
"Because it's not very safe". Sombra replied shaking.
Twilight was about to ask why but then remembered something. It was in a book that Sombra wasn't allowed to see.
"How about we go get pancakes in the kitchen"? Asked twilight.
Sombra smiled the first time since he was in Ponyville.
She needed somepony to look after Sombra while she went to get the book.
She thought of spike but then remembered he was in town for a game with Big Mac.
After ten minutes of searching they finally found the kitchen.
Twilight lifted Sombra up with her magic onto the seat. Sombra was surprised that he was floating but calmed down after he saw that Twilight was the one lifting him.
"I will be in the kitchen making pancakes while you have to sit here so you don't get hurt okay"? Asked Twilight in a motherly tone.
"Okay". Sombra said sadly.
half a hour later
The pancakes were done. Twilight snuck a glance at Sombra and noticed he was shivering.
At first she thought it was because he was cold but then realised it was because he was away from her.
She set down the plates and sat next to Sombra. Sombra stopped shivering and smiled softly.
He was very terrible at using cutlery to say the least. Twilight had to move his hooves for him to learn how to use them. Even after he still cut big chunks of pancakes.
Its like I'm his mother. Twilight thought as he cut his pancakes.
She then decided to get her friends to come over to talk about what was going on.
It was only fair they know what's happening. They're my friends after all.
"Are you okay"? Asked Sombra looking up at Twilight with big eyes.
"Yes I am why"? Twilight asked back.
"I asked what we were doing but you didn't listen". Sombra said still staring with curiosity.
"Well you are going to meet my friends today. Now finish your pancakes". Twilight said mimicking a tone she heard Fluttershy use on one of her animals.
"Okay". said Sombra shyly.
Twilight realised in order to get her friends she would need to leave Sombra alone.
"Done". Said Sombra with a smile on his mussel.
"You need to wash those hoofs". Twilight said.
She looked out of the window and saw pinkie bouncing around town.
"Pinkie"!
"Yes twi"? Pinkie asked.
"Can you get everypony to go to my castle as soon as they can"?
"Of course". Pinkie said while hopping along.
a couple of hours later
Sombra was hiding behind twilight while the others arrived.
The pink pony was bouncing onto a thrown with her cutie mark while a blue pegasus did the same.
"Now let's go over this again". Twilight said not noticeing Sombra hiding behind her thrown.
"We've been over it like a million times Twilight". The blue pegasus said complaining.
"We found all six keys, defeated Tirek and got this sweet castle". Rainbow dash said pointing around her.
"Yes but why"? Twilight said rubbing her mussel.
"We don't know sugarcube. Maybe it's just your new house and there is nothing more to it than that". Applejack said relaxing.
"From my point of view there doesn't need to be more to it". Rarity exclaimed.
"I agree with everypony and probably spike too". Fluttershy said cheerfully.
Sombra giggled at Fluttershy's behaviour.
The giggles increased when the ponies were looking around the castle in fear.
However when Twilight shot an angry glance at Sombra's hiding spot the giggles stopped.
"As princess I've been chosen to speed the magic of friendship across Equestria so why would the tree of Harmony what us to sit in a castle in Ponyville"? Twilight asked no pony in particular.
As soon as Twilight sat on her thrown the cutie Mark on the throwns started to glow.
Crystal started to grow out of the ground. Suddenly a glowing map with all of Equestria burst out of the ground.
"This is incredible it's got all of Equestria"! Spike said while walking on the glowing map.
Pinkie looked at her parents rock farm before spike stomped on it.
With a bright gleam their cutie marks started glowing.
A copy of their cutie marks hovered above a particular place near the outskirts of Equestria.
"But Ponyville is over here why are our cutie marks over their"? Asked Fluttershy.
"I don't know but it seems like the map wants us to find out". Twilight said.
"Just one question twi. Who is that"? Rainbow asked pointing to Sombra waving his hoof through a mountain.
