//------------------------------// // Chapter 2: Journey to Equestria // Story: Spiders and Loyalty: Deadly Vengence // by Alvaxerox //------------------------------// "Birthday supplies, check. Vanilla Rice Krispy ice cream birthday cake, check. Birthday gifts. Check." Isabelle's mother, Penelope Parker, was checking off her list to get ready for Isabelle's birthday in a few days. "Alright, all that's left is for everyone to get ready. Isabelle rushed back home to explain about her invitation to a party in Equestria in her honor. "... And so you see, the Celestia in Equestria is a princess and rules that world, and she invited me for a celebration as a way to say thanks for saving their world. Twilight here, the princess, not that pink Spider-Girl, came to get me." "Wow, can't say I blame Izzy. You did help alot to save us, the world and theirs." Penelope said. "And it be foolish to refuse an invitation from a princess." "So, go ahead. In fact, during the celebration, we can move your birthday there." Ken said. "That's a good idea Mr. And Mrs. Parker. And know just the perfect pony to help you." Twilight said. "Thanks mom and dad. So Courtney, you ready?" Isabelle asked. But unfortunately, Courtney wasn't eeling too good. Her head is hurting her. And she feels weak, like her body's been shut down. "What's wrong." Penelope catched Courtney before she fainted. "Uh oh, Courtney has a fever. She probably didn't tell you during your fight with Unibee." "I didn't want to slow her down." Courtney said. "I'm sorry." "You don't have to apologize Courtney, but you do need to get home." Isabelle said. "Mom, can you call Courtney's mom and tell her to pick her up?" "Sure thing." Penelope said. "So Twilight. No offense, but do your friends know about me?" Isabelle asked Twilight. "I only told them how you saved Equestria. I haven't told them what you look like. By the look of your height, they'll think of you as a kid." Twilight explained. "But there is something when you come to Equestria. You'll be turned into a pony, which means your hands and feet will be turned to hooves. Although, I don't know what type pony you'll turn into." "Well, I can run and walk like an animal on their four legs. So walking in Equestria wouldn't be that difficult." Isabelle said. "We should get going." Twilight said. "Take care Isabelle." Ken said. "We'll see you soon in Equestria." "Thanks dad. See ya later. And Courtney, get well soon." Isabelle said as she hugs her dad and turns her head at her friend. "Bye Izzy." Penelope said. As they waved goodbye. Twilight used her magic to teleport her and Isabelle to Canterlot City. Twilight shows Isabelle where the portal is. Inside the statue that her human counterpart destroyed. Isabelle remembered that is the same portal Twilight and the others came out of when they were infected by Pony of Shadows. They walked in. Twilight emerged from the portal she came from, and walked. She was back as an alicorn again. And Isabelle emerged as well. Only this time. She wasn't a human. She was a unicorn. A cute little pink unicorn. "Whoa..." Isabelle was in awe with her pony form. "I look so... Cute." She walked around on her four legs, she didn't trip cause she's adaptable. "I'm glad your enjoying your pony form." Twilight said. "So... What about that other form of yours?" "What do you mean?" Isabelle asked. "You know. That bracelet of yours transforms into Spider-Tsundere right?" Twilight reminded Isabelle. "My friends want to meet you, but as your superhero form. I haven't told them about your normal form." "Huh. Kinda thought you did." Isabelle said. "No I didn't. As my friend Spike told me during his Power Ponies comic books, superheroes keep their identities secret." Twilight said. "Well, can't say I blame him. Okay, I'll give it a try. But my kwami has all the power." I Isabelle said as her kwami Loli popped out from pocket. "Huh, and it looks like kwamis stay the same in any reality." "Indeed." Loli said. "It is an honor to meet you Princess Twilight Sparkle." The kwami gave Twilight a solum bow. "Nice to meet you too Loli. So you gave Isabelle your powers and abilities?" Twilight asked. "Yep. And all she has to do, is give me the command words to use her powers." Loli said. "Say them Izzy." "With pleasure." Isabelle said. "Loli, web on!" And Isabelle's kwmai went inside her bracelet and transformed her into Spider-Tsundere. "I have to admit, even by Rainbow Dash's standards, that is pretty awesome." Twilight said. "Okay, you wait here, I'll go get my friends." "Okay then." Spider-Tsundere said. A few minutes later... Twilight called her friends to come over to the castle to meet Spider-Tsundere, and they literally grabbed Rainbow Dash and bashed through the door immediately with Pinkie Pie grabbed them all. She was very excited. "Where is she, where is she!?" Pinkie yelled with excitement. "Geez, Pinkie, calmed down." Applejack said. "Seriously darling, I was in the middle of a shower! I don't want this mutant Spider-Sun Dare to see me naked." Rarity said as she used her towel to cover herself. "Rarity, I told ya a hundred times. We're always naked. We don't wear clothes cause we're covered in fur." Applejack pointed. "Also, it's not Sun Dare, it's Tsundere. As in the character troop were somepony acts all tough on the outside but has a soft side in the inside and pretends not to care." Pinkie explained. "Yes Pinkie. But she said she uses that name for show, not to use seriously." Twilight said. "Now follow me to the other room." So Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Spike and Starlight followed Twilight to the room where Spider-Tsundere was in. "So let me get this straight, you invited Isabelle's parents to come later to Equestria for her birthday?" Starlight asked. "Yeah. The celebration will be taken place on her birthday, then we can prepare for the festival of the sun and the moon." Twilight said. "I bet this Spider-Tsundere is not as awesome as me." Rainbow Dash said. "Oh, I just hope she's not that scary looking." Fluttershy said. "The way Twilight described her, she sounds like a vicious creature." "Don't worry sugercube, if Spider fella is anything like Twilight said she was, then we don't need to worry. Besides, she saved our lives when we were infect by those shadows during the invasion." Applejack said. "No you ever talked about that darling." Rairty said as the memories of being infected by the pony of Nightmare Shadows clouded her head. "I felt so violated before she cured us." "Well, I'm hoping to give her a big party to welcome her to Ponyville." Pinkie Pie said. As everyone talks, they made it to the door where Spider-Tsundere was in. "Alright. We're here." Twilight said as she opens the doors. "May I present, the darkness of light, the superhero of Neo-Tech City, the amazing, the spectacular, the miraculous... Spider-Tsundere." She gave the young superhero an introduction. Spider-Tsundere, hanging from a web on the ceiling, moves down to see Twilight's friend. Everypony was in a brief shock. She looked like... A kid. "Hey everyone." Spider-Tsundere said. Rainbow Dash and Applejack were in shock that she looks so small like a filly. Rairty was also in shock. They were silent. Although to Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy, they were in awe. "Oh my Celestia, she is so adorable." Fluttershy said. "I know right, she's wicked cute!" Pinkie said. They quickly ran up to Spider-Tsundere to introduce themselves. "Nice to meet you Spider-Tsundere, I'm Pinkie Pie." "And my name is Fluttershy." Fluttershy introduce herself as well. Spider-Tsundere got off her webline and shake both their hooves. "Nice to meet you two." "Your kidding right?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Nope." Twilight said. "I am serious. This is Spider-Tsundere. She's the one that saved Equestria from the Pony of Shadows's invasion." Twilight said. Applejack shook her head as she shakes Spider-Tsundere's hoof. "Well then, Howdy there." She said. "I'm Applejack." "A pleasure to meet you darling." Rarity said. "My name is Rarity." "Welcome to Equestria, where we live, Ponyville!" Pinkie Pie said. Rainbow walked up to see. She looks like a filly. "So, this filly, helped saved Equestria?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I'm 14." Spider-Tsundere said. "I haven't had a growth spurt yet." Spider-Tsundere looks at blue Pegesus. She wonders if Twilight and Starlight told them that she's the human that saved them all from the shadows. Another explaination later... "Alright, alright. We get it now." Rarity said, not wanting to hear the whole shadow invasion story. "I don't want to be reminded of how we were infected by the darkness." "So Twilight, do you plan to bring Spider-Tsundere to Canterlot to meet Princess Celestia?" Fluttershy asked. "Not really." Twilight said. "Princess Celestia told me that she'll come over to the castle later to meet her in person. It'll take a few hours. So we have time to show Spider-Tsundere around Ponyville." "Good idea Twilight. I'll give her the tour." Spike said. "I'll come along too." Rainbow Dash said, as she and Spike took Spider-Tsundere outside of the castle. "You just let us know when Celestia is here." "That's good. That will give us some time to get everything ready for Celestia's arrival." Twilight said. "Girls, your free to go for now. Pinkie, Starlight, your staying with me. We got some work to do for Celestia's arrival." "Won't be much. But okay." Pinkie Pie said. To be continued...
