//------------------------------// // Chapter 20: Yacht Trip, Part 4 // Story: A Tale of a Loving Sister: Volume 2 // by GoebelTron //------------------------------// The next morning, Starlight and the kids got up, and Starlight managed to make the kids some buttermilk waffles for breakfast. After the kids had breakfast, Starlight put on “SpongeBob SquarePants” on the TV. Suddenly, the girls woke up and saw the kids watching the show. “You put SpongeBob on?” Sunset asked. “I just wanted to make sure that their morning was a good one,” Starlight said. “By the way the weather’s going to be like yesterday, so we’re gonna have to hang out in here for the rest of the day, or until we can come up with something,” Applejack said, cooking some steak and eggs for breakfast. “In case you didn’t know, I made the kids some waffles,” Starlight said. “That’s so sweet of you, darling,” Rarity said. “It’s nothing. Just trying to fit in with this human stuff,” Starlight said. “So, how has Princess Twilight been so far?” Applejack asked. “Good,” Starlight said. “When Chase met her and the other princesses, they were so sweet to him. I even hid him by my side when he felt nervous.” The girls made a “d’awwww” reaction to her story, then Sunset saw the kids playing with Spike. “Fluffy doggie!” Sam Sam said with giggles. “Thanks. I needed that,” Spike said. “That’s so cute! A talking dog!” Melody said, giving the dog a kiss on the forehead, then Spike played tug-a-war with Seamus. After they all got dressed, they hanged around in their room and watched “Cars.” Sunset embraced Chase with her legs and wrapped her arms around him for a hug, Seamus laid on Twilight’s lap, and both Rarity and Fluttershy watched over Melody and Sam Sam. When the movie was over, the kids started to get bored. Suddenly, Sunset came up with an idea. “Kids, get your shoes on. I’m gonna take you 4 for a walk,” Sunset said kindly. “Could the rest of you stay here and socialize while I’m gone?” The girls made agreeable comments, then the kids were ready and they left the room and went for a walk around the yacht. “Me and Fluttershy are gonna go to the spa,” Rarity said, then the others agreed to stay behind and then both Rarity and Fluttershy walked over to the spa. After Sunset and the kids had their walk and stopped for burgers and milkshakes, they came back to the room to rest themselves, and so Sunset could give her feet some rest. Suddenly, Sunset thought of an idea after she got herself some water, “Hey, uh... Rainbow Dash? Could you and Applejack take the kids and let them sleep on a bed?” Applejack and Rainbow Dash realized what she meant, then acknowledged. “Sure thing, Sunset,” Applejack said, then she and Rainbow Dash uncovered the sheets and then the kids came over and climbed onto the bed on the other side, and then Applejack tucked them in, then she and Rainbow Dash sat on the bed with them. Sunset went to go cool off outside and then sat down on a chair and took a nap. Suddenly, Rarity and Fluttershy came back from the spa. “WE’RE BACK!” Rarity said. “SHHHHHH! You’re gonna wake the kids!” Twilight said softly, until Rarity and Fluttershy saw the kids sleeping in their bed. Rarity sat down with the kids without waking them and then read her magazine. Sam Sam suddenly started squirming, until Fluttershy leaned forward and shushed him by rubbing his shoulder, then he calmed down and Fluttershy gave him a kiss on the cheek and then she left the kids alone to sleep. Hours later, the girls ordered pizza, but it was all plain cheese. After they ate their pizza, Twilight got a text, “Guys, there’s gonna be some shooting stars tonight!” Twilight said in excitement. “Come on, let’s go sit on the balcony and watch them!” The girls went outside and sat on the chairs and watched millions of shooting stars shower from the sky. Oooooh! Pretty!” Pinkie Pie said. “They’re so beautiful!” Fluttershy said. “Yes! Indeed, darling,” Rarity said. “I’ve always wanted to see shooting stars,” Chase said. “I heard you get to make wishes,” Sunset said. Chase suddenly closed his eyes and cross his fingers, then made a wish. “So, what’d ya wish for, sugarcube?” Applejack asked. “I wished that I had a family like you all,” Chase replied, until they all got in for a group hug after Chase’s kind words. Later on, the girls went to bed after getting changed into their pajamas and brushing their teeth, but they suddenly saw the kids getting ready afterwards. “Hey, kids? Would it be alright if you four slept with us tonight?” Sunset asked with a warm smile. The kids nodded, until Sunset thought of an idea, “Go get ready, and you can sleep with me tonight.” The kids nodded, then they went to the bathroom to change into their pajamas and brush their teeth, then they went potty. After they were ready they climbed into the bed. After the kids crawled into the bed with Sunset, Chase laid on top of his sister, then they went to sleep after Rarity tucked them underneath the blanket, then she went to sleep in her sleeping bag. Until then, everyone went to sleep. The next day, the kids woke up and went to the stove and got themselves some bowls of cereal for breakfast. Then, they decided to draw some pictures while they waited for the girls to get up. After the girls got out of bed and had some steak and omelettes with peppers, spice and cheese for breakfast, they got dressed and then packed up their bags, “Kids, make sure you pack your bags because we’re going home today. We might take you to Equestria Land tomorrow.” The kids cheered and jumped, then they got dressed, brushed their teeth, and then packed up their stuff to go home. When they were ready, they left the room for the last time and then they left the yacht and went back onto the pier and walked over to the parking lot, loaded their suitcases and bags into the trunk of the car, then got inside the vehicle. “What about Auntie Cady and Uncle Shiny?” Chase asked. “Don’t worry, bug,” Twilight said. “I asked my parents to drive them home.” “Alright, now that we’re buckled up, let’s head on home and get some rest,” Applejack said. “We just had a long trip, so let’s get a chance to rest.” They all agreed, then Applejack started driving. Later on, Chase and Sunset finally made it home and unloaded their stuff from the trunk and went inside. “Bye, girls. I’ll let you know about what to do soon,” Sunset said, then Applejack drove the others home. Then, Sunset and Chase went inside the house to get cooled off. Meanwhile, Dr. Bernstein was doing research on the ooze, until he secretive managed to do some research on a cure. Suddenly, Estella came over, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?” Dr. Bernstein jumped and hid his research, but Estella grabbed it and read it, “A cure!? How dare you plan a cure!? There will be no cure on my watch! Now get back to work and forget about the cure, because if I find you doing it again and I’m feeding you to that thing!” Dr. Bernstein nodded in fear and continued his research, suddenly Estella heard a voice, “Estella, is everything alright?” Estella turned around and she saw something that shocked her eyes, “Haha! You truly are El Macho! The world-famouse daredevil in Mexico!” “That is correct!” El Macho said. “Can you believe I was still alive?! After all these years, I can finally have revenge on those lawyers while you have revenge on your nephew.” Estella cackled, then they saw their second mutant breaking the glass. It was a giant man with the feet of an elephant and his body had the body parts of both a manta ray and a shark. “Looks like everything’s going as planned,” Estella said.
