Sunset flies to the library and wears her robe to start to open the library. Sunset sighs because she doesn't help much with those elements but she is glad that the princess of the night comes back to Equestria.
Outside the Ponyville, there is a celebration for Princess, the main 6 and Spike as they are riding a chariot. Ponies around cheer the heroes while Celestia and Luna just wave their hoof greets their subjects. After the celebration is done and everypony is enjoying the festival, Twilight and her friends sign in relief as Celestia and Luna are going to go back to the castle.
Celestia walks to Twilight, "So Twilight, the mission is done and you can come back to Cancerlot to continue your study."
Twilight looks at her friends then looks back to her teacher, "I think... I will stay here, Princess Celestia. I just want to hang out with my friends."
Celestia smiles, "I see. You can stay here whenever you want. Anyway, you will live with that dragon in the library?"
Twilight sighs, "I'm afraid I have to because she has bought that library. But she seems to be a nice dragon, so I don't need to feel so uncomfortable with her."
Celestia asks, "Did you ask her how she can cast magic?"
Twilight answer, "I have, but she ignores that question so me and Spike is going to learn magic from her"
Celestia nods, "I see. You can learn magic with her because you and Spike are mature, that's your choice."
Twilight bows, "Thank you, Princess Celestia. Oh anyway, I have a secret about Spike."
Celestia grins, "What is it?"
Twilight looks around, then she comes close to her teacher's ear and whispers, " I think Spike got love at first sight with that dragon."
Celestia smiles, " I see. Good for him." Then she walks to the chariot, " I have to go. Good luck, my faithful student," then the chariot starts to fly to Cancerlot.
Twilight turns to her friends, "I think we should go home," all of her friends nod in agreement. Twilight turns to Spike, " Let's go, Spike. We will go home."
Spike nods and walks with Twilight to come back to the library.
Sunset checks her gem bag and finds that it is empty. The orange dragon sighs as she is re-selving the books. News one, old one, alphabet is the way that she is putting the book. Twilight and Spike open the door and see Sunset is jumping down the ladder.
Sunset notices them, "Oh hey, you're back."
Twilight nods, "I just talk to Celestia and I am going to live here with you."
Spike asks, "and what is that robe for?"
Sunset sits down on the sofa, " Just some uniform when I open the library," then Sunset takes out the sallet, "well, this robe and this sallet is the couple."
Spike blushes to see the orange dragon in the robe and tries to say, "I see, you are cute when wearing that robe."
"Thanks, Rarity told me that too," Sunset hears her stomach is demanding food as she looks at the clock, "Huh, It's lunch already." Then Sunset stands up and sighs, "Well, I have to cook some food for all of you,"
Spike stops the orange dragon, "No need, let me cook for you," then he runs to the kitchen.
Sunset looks at Twilight, "Is he always like that?"
Twilight giggles, "Maybe," Sunset just sits down on the sofa and starts reading a book about Equestria culture and maps.
After 30 minutes, Spike calls the duo to go to the kitchen to have lunch. Sunset and Twilight take seats while Spike is serving food.
Sunset takes a bite and smiles, " Wow, this food is good."
Spike rubs his head, "Thanks, I cooked everyday for Twilight thought,"
Sunset looks at Twilight in amusement, making Twilight feel uncomfortable, "What? I am busy studying, okay?"
Sunset rolls her eyes, "Bet that when he sick or something, you have to eat cereal for days,"
Twilight sighs, "Fine, you got me. Anyway, I have some questions for you," Twilight turns to Spike as he takes out notes and pen.
Sunset is eating the salad, "Oh... Eh what is it?"
Twilight points at the dragon, " First, how can you do magic and cast spells? I research that no dragon can do magic. Second, your spell is unfamiliar to the Equestria. Did you learn from someone outside?"
Sunset smirks, " Ah, some magic stuff." Then she drinks the water, "They are classified because this knowledge can lead this country into chaos. So, I have to be careful when I give this knowledge to someone."
Twilight glares at the dragon, "What? This is just knowledge, how can it turn Equestria into chaos?"
Sunset pokes Twilight's forehead, "Knowledge is a powerful weapon. whenever I give it to the wrong hand. Your country and your precious Celestia is no more. Not now, but in the future. Understand?" Then she pushes Twilight to tease her.
Twilight feels more angry about this, "Fine. If you don't want to share it. I will research by myself,"
Sunset thinks, 'She really likes magic huh? Let see,' the orange coughs herself and asks the purple unicorn, " what will you do if you know all of my knowledge of magic,"
Twilight answers, "I just want to share all of the pony about this magic of yours," Twilight slams the table and put her face near the dragon, " This can be a big discovery when we can apply this new theory into our lives, you know..." Sunset puts her claw on her mouth to stop her, make her glare at the dragon.
Sunset turns her head to Spike, "What about you, Spike? What will you do when you can cast magic and spell like me?"
Spike rubs her head, "It would be great to do magic and stuff. But honestly, I just want to protect my friends," then Spike turns to Twilight, " and protect that what I dear most,"
Sunset laughs at the purple dragon, then stops. She points at Spike, "You in, Spike."
Spike grasps while Twilight retorts, "Why did you only want to teach him? Not me. I'm very good at magic."
Sunset glares at the purple unicorn, "You just want to share this knowledge to everyone but you don't even know what if the villain hold this theory too. How can Celestia control this type of villain when he or she even stronger than her?" Twilight silences as Sunset continues, "Want me to remind you about the alicorn amulet? It's literally cursing the pony into evil right there. And if you share this theory, the artifact will be even stronger than that. You think you can control it?"
Twilight outburst, " All right. If you don't want to share it with me, it's fine. I will discover magic by myself." Then she runs out of the library, Spike is going to follow her but Sunset stops him and shakes her head.
"Stupid dragon with her magic," Twilight stomps on the street and mumuring in frutration, "I can't believe that she is so selfish. "
Rarity sees Twilight is angry and she decides to come to her, " Hello darling, you seem very angry."
Twilight sighs in frustration, "Yes Rarity, I am very angry when an orange dragon doesn't share anything."
Rarity tries to comfort her, " She must have a reason to do that."
Twilight retorts, " It's just magic theory but she won't share it to anyone. Is that a big thing? No."
Rarity pats her shoulder, "I don't know anything about magic because I just use it for my work. Oh anyway, Fluttershy needs some help. You should go there to help her."
Twilight sighs, "Fine, as long as I can calm down. I am with her."
Twilight goes to the cottage and knocks on the door. The yellow pegasus opens the door and sees her unicorn friend. Twilight smiles to greet her.
Fluttershy giggles, "You come here to help me?"
Twilight nods, "Yes yes. I'm here to help you."
Fluttershy flies inside her house, "Let me pack the thing up. We have to go inside the forest to find some food for my animal."
Twilight puts her hoof on her chin, "I see. Okay, I will wait for you."
After 15 minutes of waiting, Fluttershy and Twilight go to the Everfree forest to collect food for her animal. For 30 minutes, she and Fluttershy finally can collect enough for her animals. Suddenly, a stallion wearing a black cloak appears and blocks their way, making them confused. The stallion takes out a green small horn and blows it, two timberwolves come out and states at them,
Twilight shudders and tries to ask, " What do you want for us?"
The stallion answers, " I want nothing from you," then he points at the yellow pegasus, " I want her,"
Fluttershy grasps, " Wha-What do you want from me?"
The stallion grins, " I want you to join my circus." Then he walks around the timberwolves, " you see, my circus is out of money and I need your taming skill to make my circus full of the animals show, then I will make money from these animals"
Fluttershy shouts at him, "I don't follow you. Circus is the place for torturing animals. I won't help you with that,"
"Well then," the stallion blows the horn and timberwolves charge at them, " if I can't talk with you, my timberwolves will talk with you,"
Twilight uses her bubble shield to shield against the timberwolves. The timberwolves tries to slash and slam
her shield makes her grunt but she continues to keep the shield going on. Twilight's horn is lightened into white color and blasts two timberwolves away.
The stallion admires her, "Oh, you're still fighting. Get out of my way, she is not worthy to waste your life."
"No," Twilight breathe heavily and glares at the stallion, " she is my friend and I have to protect them,"
The stallion blows the horn to command the timberwolves to attack her. Twilight lightens her horn into white and levitates the wolves and throws them away. Twilight sees everything is blurry and lies down. The stallion commands the timberwolves to capture Fluttershy.
Twilight looks at her and tries to stand. She lightens her horn again but a claw prevents her from doing that. She looks at the claw and sees it is orange, then she looks left and sees the orange dragon is smiling at her with Fluttershy in her claw. Fluttershy is shaking like a leaf due to her scare of dragons. Sunset talks to the purple unicorn, "Good job, Twilight. Now sit down and I will get you home," Twilight is now fainted while Sunset turns to the stallion.
"Who are you?" The stallion glares at her," and why do a dragon like you protect the pony?
Sunset answers, " You don't have to worry about that because I will throw you to the jail and shut down your stupid circus."
The stallion grits his teeth and tries to blow the horn, but Sunset throws a card to slide it into half, making the stallion surprised. He tries to run away but a firewall stands in his retreat. The stallion looks at her and begs, "Please, don't hurt me, please.." but his vision changes into black after that.
Sunset looks back at the wolves and casts a fireball to threaten them. The wolves are scared and flee away from her. Sunset looks at the purple unicorn and sighs."
Spike is organizing the library while happily singing. The door is knocked as he opens the door. The purple dragon sees Sunset is carrying Twilight and is shocked.
Spike asks, "Oh my Celestia, what happens to her?"
Sunset puts the purple unicorn on the sofa, " Just a light wound, she will wake up anytime soon." Sunset takes a stool and sits, " Don't worry, she will be fine."
Spike sighs in relief as he goes to the bathroom and puts a wet towel on Twilight's forehead, then he reads a book and sits next to her. Sunset sighs and lies on the floor.
After two hours, Twilight awakes and Spike is happy to see that. He hugs her, "You awake, I'm so sorry about you, Twilight.,"
Twilight rubs her head, " What happened? Where am I?"
Spike answers, "You are in the library and Sunny is cooking our dinner."
Twilight nods, " I see..." She gets up and looks at her assistant, "You know Spike, today..." Twilight tells Spike all of the things.
Spike grasps and asks, "Where is that stallion?"
"He is in jail," Sunset puts the food in front of them, " He won't disturb us anymore."
Spike and Twilight sigh and start eating. It is so good even if it has a weird taste, Twilight asks her, "What did you cook? It tastes weird but it's good."
"Cactus and stuff," Twilight and Spike grasp as Sunset laughs, " Don't worry, they don't have anything that you can't eat like meat." The purple duo laugh and continue to eat.
After dinner, Sunset puts all dishes on the sink and uses a water spell to wash. Twilight and Spike are busy dealing with customers. Two hours later, the library is closed as Sunset is looking at bookshelves.
Sunset sits down between Twilight and Spike. Sunset starts to talk, "All right, Twilight. I already see the way you use spells."
Twilight turns her head and glares at the dragon, "You should come sooner so I can be safe."
Sunset smirks and takes out the broken horn that the stallion just used, "So, you still want to share about the theory? I already see an artifact that can control the timberwolves."
Twilight sighs, "You right. It will be dangerous for all of the country. I promise that I won't share anything about your magic theory without any of your permission."
Spike says to her, "You know, that will be good when we use it to protect our friends."
Twilight agrees, " You right, Spike. I will be good."
Sunset hugs both of them, "you in Twilight. We will start tomorrow," Twilight and Spike feel warm and quickly melt into the hug.
Spike retorts, "But tomorrow, we will have to help Applejack to work her farm."
"Don't worry, I will handle this." Sunset raises her claw, "Can you put your claw and hoof on my claw?"
Twilight and Spike nod and they put hoof and claw on the Sunset's claw. Sunset closes her eyes and starts chanting the spell, a chain wraps around Twilight's hoof and Spike's claw as they are surprised. Then a light appears at the spot, making them have to close their eyes. When it isb
done, the trio open their eyes.
"Done," Sunset nods, " now we are like family. You all can't tell anyone about the theory until I accept."
Twilight nods, "deal" then she looks at Spike and sees the purple dragon have the dragon symbol on his forehead. Twilight looks at Sunset and sees that symbol is exactly like her. Twilight glares at the dragon, "What have you done to us?"
"Nothing," Sunset stretches her body, " just adds a symbol that only us can see," Spike takes out the mirror and sees that symbol. He doesn't know how to respond.
" Fine," Twilight takes a book, " Just warn us next time."
Sunset nods and the trio start living in a library with each other. This is a crazy day for them.
