//------------------------------// // Plans Being Made // Story: Spiders & Magic: Capcom Invasion // by Masterob //------------------------------// The next day Johnny Storm joined Rainbow Dash as she went to greet her weather team, she had explained to him how weather works in Equestria, much to his confusion. "So...you create the weather in this world?" Johnny asked, a bit confused, the idea of weather coming from Pegusai moving clouds seems so weird. "Yeah, part of my job, sometimes we even work in a factory, that's where we make the Rainbows", Rainbow Dash answered. Johnny blinked a moment, "Wow, if my brother-in-law Reed were here, he'd go on about this stuff being scientifically impossible". Rainbow rolled her eyes, "Sounds like you have your own Twilight" Johnny chuckled, "She that nerdy too? Makes her that more of a match for Peter, good thing too, Peter deserves a smart girl, someone that can appreciate that nerdy side to him" Rainbow smiled at Johnny for that, "You really do care for Peter, that's cool of you, and it helps that you're here, he doesn't have that many people from your world here, only his aunt, and that Felicia Hardy girl". Johnny looked surprised, "Felicia Hardy? As in Black Cat?" "Yeah, did you have any run ins with her?" Rainbow asked. "A few, she's quite the flirt, she once tricked me into invading an embassy", Johnny said, feeling a bit foolish from the memories. Rainbow chuckled, "Wow, quite the flirt". Johnny chuckled, "Indeed". They flew until they encountered Rainbow's fellow Pegusai, a stallion & two mares. "Here's my weather team, Thunderlane, Flitter & Cloudchaser, you probably saw them at AJ's barn yesterday", she turned to the 3 ponies, "I'd like for you 3 to formally meet a hero from Spider-mane's world, the Human Torch, Johnny Storm". The ponies greeted each other, then a thought occurred in Rainbow Dash's head. "Wait I just realized...if you're a pony, you shouldn't call yourself 'The Human Torch', you're not human, Spider-man changed his name to 'Spider-Mane', so instead of The Human Torch, you should call yourself 'The Equine Torch', that makes a bit more sense". Johnny nodded, "Guess so, though all of you can just call me Johnny, that won't change". "Ok, Johnny, nice to meet you I guess", Thunderlane said and did a hoofshake to Johnny,"By the way, my brother thinks your powers are cool, a bit cooler than Spider-Mane's" Johnny grinned, "Your brother sounds smart" Flitter nodded, "Oh yes, he's the sweetest little colt, me and my sister love babysitting him" "I take it he's pretty young", Johnny said. "He's about the same age as The Cutie Mark Crusaders", Rainbow Dash answered. Johnny looked confused, "Uh...The Cutie Mark Crusaders?" "Peter introduced them yesterday, remember Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle & Scootaloo?" Johnny nodded, "Right, now the name sounds familiar, Scootaloo's a great filly, the other two, kinda annoying". Rainbow looked at Johnny with an annoyed expression, but continued her point, "Since they don't have their Cutie Marks yet, they formed a group and called themselves 'The Cutie Mark Crusaders', and work to find their Cutie Marks." "What's a Cutie Mark?" Johnny asked. "The marks on our flanks, see?" Rainbow pointed to her mark, as did the other Pegusai, "It's a symbol of our special talent, though from the looks of things, you don't seem to have a cutie mark". Johnny found himself staring at Rainbow Dash's flank a bit too much, which Rainbow noticed. She then whacked his head, "Focus Johnny, don't get distracted". She wasn't too upset that he was staring, she found it flattering and she doesn't blame him. Johnny rubbed his head, "Sorry about that", he looked back on his own flank, turns out his flank was indeed blank, "That a bad thing?" Rainbow shook her head, "Not too bad, Peter didn't have his Cutie Mark right away either, he didn't get it until he defeated that Green Goblin creep, so you just gonna do something cool and you'll get yours." Johnny though a moment, "Shouldn't be too hard, not that it's too important, we just need to find Wesker and his goons and that's it, me and Logan go home". Rainbow looked disappointed, "Well, in that case, let's chill together while we can". Johnny nodded and flew away with the Pegusai. Meanwhile in the home of Golden Harvest, in her room, Vega is sleeping in her bed with Golden Harvest lying on chest, perfectly at peace. He woke up after a while and looked around. He then noticed Golden Harvest asleep, remembering the previous night. He had then slowly gotten up carefully, not wanting to wake her and positioned her so she's sleeping comfortably, "Sleep well mi linda del potro". He kissed her good-bye and left her house through her window, and flew around to find his allies. "I still have my important skills that will get me through life between my ninja skills and my charm...surprised I did that with a horse...but she wasn't too bad, I can understand Spider-man's interest, plus she was able to share many interesting things with me during our pleasurable night, some that can benefit our cause". He flew over to where he last left his allies, he saw that they were busy practicing to get used to their new bodies, Bison testing his Psycho Power, Balrog doing some shadow boxing, Vergil testing his demon power and his sword skills, Wesker practicing his martial arts. "Getting used to their forms? Makes sense, I still need to get used to mine, at least I was able to pick up on the flying", Vega flew down to his allies, "Hello my friends". Balrog glared, "I ain't your friend pretty boy". Vergil glared, "Where have you been? We had thought you'd been captured or killed". Vega rested against a tree, "I have been handling business of my own, testing out my ninja training, plus utilizing my charm to gain information from a local pony about details of this world." "Details? Like what?" Wesker asked. "Some basic stuff, she told me this world, known as Equestria, has two Princess Sisters that run it, one during the day, the older one Princess Celestia, who raises the sun each day, and one during the night, the younger one Princess Luna, who raises the moon by night, they are both Alicorns, meaning they have horns and wings". Wesker tapped his chin, "I believe that lavender pony that was with Parker also had a horn and wings." "Sí señor, she is also an Alicorn Princess, being the 4th after Celestia, Luna and another alicorn, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, or as many call her, Princess Cadance, she is the Princess of Love, Twilight Sparkle being The Princess of Friendship". Vergil rolled his eyes, "This world becomes more ridiculous by the moment, why do they need princess for love and friendship? At least the original two princesses make sense, wonder how long they have been around though?" "According to Golden Harvest, the pony I got this info from-" Balrog scoffed, "Golden Harvest, theses names sound really stupid" Vega just stared, "Don't talk...anyway Golden Harvest said that Celestia and Luna have been around for thousands of years, Cadance and Twilight aren't that old though. None of them were born Alicorns, not sure about the first two, but the other two earned it after discovering the true meaning of Love and Friendship." Wesker continued to rub his chin, "I see, so these four Princesses seem to run this world. What about Peter, what's his status in this world?" "Since Peter Parker has married Princess Twilight Sparkle, he is considered a prince, though he already had the presigious title being Twilight Sparkle's Knight, once they were married he became an official prince. No alicorn from though, guess marrying into the title doesn't count". "What of her friends?" Wesker asked, "What are their statuses to this world? Anything of importance?" "They are The Elements of Harmony, she didn't give me too much detail since she wasn't too sure herself but apperently they can generate great power together, so those girls plus Spider-man make for one dangerous alliance against us". Wesker pondered some ideas, "Looks like fighting them head on would be foolish, we're gonna have to use various tactics", he then had an idea, "Vega, do you think you can sneak around and gather more info on these ponies, anything we can use to our advantage?" Vega nodded, "Would be no trouble Señor Wesker, but what exactly am I looking for?" "Anything on these girls or Peter Parker, mostly weaknesses we can exploit, loved ones we can target, ways we can get inside their heads, or even find out more on how their power works, also find out where these princesses are located use the other ponies, either through your charm, or through force, though preferably nothing that would attract too much attention". Vega nodded and turned to leave, but before leaving he turned back to Wesker, "Should I avoid killing any of them?" Wesker grinned a moment, "I would prefer if you didnt kill them, but I do know accidents can happen." Vega grinned back, "Then I guess I should try not to make any accidents", he walked forward, "Maybe not too hard", a sinister chuckle emerged from Vega as he left. Vergil turned to Wesker, "Do you think we can beat these ponies alone?" Wesker looked a bit concerned, "I'm not sure, we are powerful but there may be some power even we may not be familiar with". Bison spoke up, "Perhaps we need some form of assistance, nothing wrong with a few soliders". Vergil nodded, "In Chess, while prices like The Bishop, Rook or Knight are stronger, a pawn is still needed to pave the way, the pawn can spring traps and allow the stronger pieces like the Rook, night and Bishop to swoop in" Wesker nodded, "Indeed, what do you have in mind my loyal Rook?" Vergil explained, "Those heroes from the Marvel world, we should use them, we have them under our control, we can contact Von Doom and have him send us those heroes, they can be our pawns, perhaps The Avengers". Wesker looked unconvinced, "That sounds too risky, these devices Doom and I made still need more testing, bringing the Avengers over could be risky". Vergil huffed, "Fine, we won't use The Avengers, not yet, but how about the lower class heroes, just to test this thing out, we need heroes that are compitent but expendable, ones that even if they break out of the mind control can be easy pickings for us". Wesker grinned, "You have a keen mind Vergil". Bison also grinned, "Worthy of our presance, that's something your brother cannot claim". Vergil flashed a small grin of his own, "To be expected". Wesker contacted Doom, "Doom, it's Wesker, I'm gonna need a favor from you..." Later in the day, The Mane 6 along with Trixie, Spike and The Marvel Trio were at Sweet Apple Acres. Aunt May was foalsitting Mayday, Spike and Trixie were watching the Crusaders, Peter was catching up with Johnny and Logan, the Mane 6 talked amongst each other. "So Twi, how's Peter handling seeing his old friends again?" Applejack asked. "He's happy, he wishes it was better circumstances but he's still happy to be with his old friends and allies", Twilight said. "What do you think of his friends, personally I'm not too sure about them, that Wolverine fellow looks a bit shady and that Johnny's a blowhard", Rarity said. Rainbow glared, "Johnny's not a blowhard, he's just a very confident guy who's not afraid to be himself, he's actually really nice despite what you all think" The rest of the group seemed a bit unsure, except Pinkie, "I'm with Dashie, he just has an upbeat attitude, nothing wrong with having one." The others still looked unsure, Twilight spoke up, "Regardless, Peter says he's a good guy despite some of his insensitive jokes, so we need to give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he just takes some getting used to." The others somewhat agreed with that. "What about that Logan guy? He seem alright to you girls?" Applejack asked. Once again there was a mixed reaction among them. "He seems like a brute honestly, plus his potty mouth, he seems to have almost no disregard for anything", Rarity said. "Yeah, he's a bit scary, but maybe he's not so bad...right Twilight?" Pinkie said. Twilight nodded, "Logan might seem gruff and tough, but Peter says he's got a soft side, from what I've seen on Earth, he's actually a nice person, he was very kind to me when on Earth and Spike says he's really nice too, almost like a cool uncle. Peter says his tough guy act is well...that, mostly an act, he's lived for so long and seen so many bad things it's just gotten to him a bit." Fluttershy cleared her throat a bit, "I think he's probably really nice too, I can sense that despite his hostile appearance he's a pretty gentle soul, just like Peter is, he just follows his animal instincts I guess." The girls nodded in agreement, so far they like Logan a bit more than Johnny, except Rainbow, she likes Johnny more. "Besides girls, it would mean a lot to Peter if we were more accepting, truth be told I worry about him sometimes because he's in a new world away from a lot of friends he had back home, and thankfully you all made him feel welcome, but it just seemed like he was missing a little something. I wouldn't mind if some of his friends came to live here", Twilight stated, garnering interest from her friends. "Would be nice, that world seems like a decent enough place, especially since it produced one of the nicest guys, one you were lucky enough to nab", Applejack said. "Yes, I'm still amazed that you're even married, and that you're a mother, what's it like to know you have a stallion to wake up with each day, or a little foal you have to care for?" Rarity asked. Twilight let out a loving sigh, "It's an amazing feeling, me and Peter love each other very much, and our daughter is the best thing in our lives, we have the happiest family, and we have talked about having another child, I know he wants a boy and did hope Mayday would be a boy, not that it mattered, he still loves her very much and he's very happy to have her as a daughter, plus Mayday would probably love a younger sibling, I'm just grateful I have a stallion, but truth be told I wish you girls could find a nice stallion to settle down with, have any of you considered that?" The girls each pondered their answers, Applejack was the first to speak. "Haven't thought about that too much, ah still have a farm to run, whoever ah get hitched with would need to be able to move here, marrying into a farm is not the easiest thing, requires a lot of hard work, something Peter could've definitely handle." Rarity nodded, "Yes, it's quite a commitment, and you girls know me, I always want to find a nice stallion, but it's not as easy as it seems. But I know better than to just settle, especially after seeing how happy you are with Peter, he makes for a great husband". Pinkie spoke, "I don't know who I could be with, I hope he loves parties and goodies as much as me". "Like Cheese Sandwich?" Rarity asked. Pinkie was gonna speak but then began to ponder that idea, Fluttershy spoke next, "I'm not sure either, marriage seems so scary, you're lucky you have Peter, he would have made such a comforting husband". Twilight raised her eyebrow at these mentions of Peter, Rainbow spoke next, "Not sure who I would want to get hitched with, if Peter was single then I'd definitely go for him", very blunt answer. Twilight looked a bit agitated, "Except for Pinkie, all of you seem to use Peter as an example of the perfect husband". Pinkie lit up, "Oooh, I'd like to marry Peter too!" Twilight groaned, "All of you seem interested in my husband, should I be flattered or concerned?" "Whoa there Twilight, we ain't gonna snatch Peter away from ya, we just needed an example of a good husband, Peter fits that to a tee," Applejack said. "That's true, he's handsome, kind, charming, has a great sense of humor, not afraid to express his emotions and he's very protective of you, he's a perfect package", Rarity said. "We're just so happy for you, you two make the happiest couple", Fluttershy said. Twilight huffed, "Good, it's flattering to know you all like my husband, but I just wanna make sure it's friendly, there are still a lot of mares who are into him and it honestly bothers him a bit because he's afraid I'm gonna get really jealous", Twilight said. "Ya do get jealous though, you really hate that Felicia Hardy", Applejack said. "Well yeah, she caused so much problems for Peter", Twilight said. "Also she's attractive", Rainbow Dash said, causing a groan from Twilight. "Ok, maybe I'm a little possessive, but like you said, he's a great guy and I'm gonna fight to keep him, won't be hard, I know how much he loves me", Twilight said. "Damn straight, remember what happened that time in Canterlot with that Flash Sentry fellow? The moment he hit on you Peter went into full rage, rare moment in fact", Applejack said. "Yes indeed, I've never seen him threaten somepony like that", Rarity said. "Probably didn't help that his name was 'Flash', wasn't that the name of his High School bully?" Rainbow asked. "Yeah, it was, anyway let's drop this subject and focus on something else", Twilight suggested. The others nodded and pondered, Rainbow then grinned and asked Twilight, "So...how good is Peter in bed?" "RAINBOW DASH!" Meanwhile with Peter, he's relaxing with his Marvel buddies, Peter is really preoccupied with the situation regarding Wesker, Vergil and Shadowlaw. "I'm worried guys, suppose these jerks do major damage? The ponies of Equerstria don't do well when it comes to a major crisis, they have a tendency to panic", Peter said. "Can't you track them down Logan? Did you pick up their scent?" Johnny asked. "No...they covered their trail pretty good, it's gonna be a while before I can catch them", Logan said. Peter sighed, even with his friends by his side he wasn't sure what to expect with Wesker, he's a very crafty individual, though Peter's used to guys like that, Wesker just has that mysterious aroma, similar to King Sombra, except Wesker has back up, plus he's a genius so there's that. "Everyday I wonder how I'm gonna endanger my loved ones next, I thought being here would seal me away from my enemies, how did they come here anyway?" Peter asked. "Since our world and the Capcom world collided again, maybe it reduced some barrier stuff or something like that, Reed would be able to explain it better, but it may have weakened the link between this world and ours, it might be possible for the Capcom people to invade here directly from their world", Johnny said. Peter slammed his head on the table, "Great, just what we need, suppose more baddies show up? Like that girl with those Lego robots or something?" "You mean Tron Bonne? Why would she come here, you should worry about the other dangerous guys, like Akuma" Johnny asked. Peter groaned louder and put his head in his hooves, Logan glared at Johnny, "Yer not helping!" Johnny put his hooves up defensively as if to say, 'My Bad', Logan turned to Peter, "Kid, do me a favor, and stop whining, I don't know what's gonna happen but instead of whining about it, man up and be ready for a fight!" Peter looked a bit taken back by Logan's roughness but it's to be expected, "Fine then, we'll just get ready for a war, and then-" "Hi Peter!" he heard a familiar filly squeak. Peter shuddered a bit and turned around, "Hey there Sweetie Belle, how are you?" "I'm good...are you talking with your friends?" Sweetie asked. Peter simply nodded, "Yeah, we're talking about the bad people that came by yesterday" "Is it true Rarity slapped one of them?" Sweetie asked. Peter nodded, "Yeah, dangerous person though, luckily he let it slide...I think he did at least, hope he's not out for revenge". "Well if anything happens, you'll protect my sister right?" Sweetie asked, earning yet another nod from Peter. "I won't let anything bad happen to you or your friends" Sweetie grinned and hugged Peter, "You're my favorite hero Peter, and the most dreamiest." Peter started to sweat and muttered in his head, 'Be cool, be cool, this is young Sweetie Belle, not the one you saw in the future with the latex and the flirty attitude and...', he looked at Sweetie and once again pictured an adult version with the latex and imagined her saying, "Run away with me Peter, we can start a new life together", then he swear she went in for a kiss. Peter freaked and backed away quickly while screaming, confusing Sweetie Belle and his friends. "Geez Peter, you still believe in cooties or something?" Johnny joked. Twilight had come into the room after hearing the scream, "What's happening? Is Peter alright? I thought I heard him scream" She noticed the scene, Peter was at a distant, Sweetie was right there, she could guess what happened and simply sighed. "Maybe we should go now, mind waiting for me outside Peter?" Twilight asked. Peter nodded and left the room, still a little freaked. "We should get going too", Johnny said. The two heroes left and Sweetie Belle approached Twilight, "Is Peter mad at me or something? He seems really bothered by me lately, did I do something bad?" Twilight shook her head, "No, you didn't do anything bad", then in her head, 'Yet', aloud again, "He's just a little stressed" "Oh...I hope he feels better soon, I miss being with him, he's so fun to be around, plus he's easy on the eyes, though you obviously know that" Twilight didn't look to pleased to hear that, "Sweetie, I know you have a small crush on Peter, and that's perfectly normal, but I also hope you know that he's my husband and the father to my daughter, so this crush shouldn't last too much longer, you need to be with a nice colt your age, I know Peter's handsome and charming and he's got that allure to most girls, but for your sake please don't take your crush too far, don't chase after something that will never happen." Sweetie lowered her ears, "I get it, I'm sorry Twilight". "It's fine Sweetie, like I said, your crush is perfectly normal, just don't get too carried away", Twilight said. Sweetie nodded and gave a soft smile to Twilight, once Twilight left the room, Sweetie frowned a bit, "Why can't I have a handsome hero as my coltfriend? It's no fair, I wish I were older". Outside, Johnny met with Peter, "Yo panic boy, you ok there?" Peter glared a bit, "Panic boy? That the best you could come up with?" Johnny chuckled, "Hey you really freaked out when that filly hugged you, she poke you with her horn? Did did you poke her with yours?" Johnny raised his eyebrow, only for Peter to get in his face. "That's not funny!" "Hey relax Parker, you act like you and her had an affair once or something". Peter looked shamefully to the side a moment, something Johnny caught and looked a bit suspicious, "Peter...you didn't do anything funny with her right? I don't know about how things are here but-" Peter rubbed his head, "It's hard to explain Johnny, but let's just say I did something really bad...and it happened with Sweetie Belle". Johnny looked concerned for his friend, Peter was really bothered by this, poking fun at it wasn't a good idea, "Peter, you know you can tell me anything right? I'm your bro, I'm here for you, if there's something you can't tell Twilight then-" "She knows what's bothering me, it's just too hard and too humiliating to talk about right now", Peter explained. Johnny nodded, "That's fine, you can tell me when you're ready". Peter smiled and high hoofed Johnny, "Thanks Johnny". Johnny grinned, "No problem". While this happened, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Trixie and Spike approached them. "Aw, how sweet", Trixie said with a coy smile. Apple Bloom noticed Peter looked distressed, "You ok Peter? You look a bit bothered." Peter nodded, "I'm fine Apple Bloom, don't worry about it" "Sweetie Ball's been all over him again", Johnny said. Apple Bloom raised her eyebrow, "You mean Sweetie Belle?" Johnny face hoofed, "Right, mix up" Apple Bloom nodded, "Yeah, ah wish Sweetie Belle would get over her crush, ah know you're a handsome guy Pete, ah can't blame her but it's just not healthy, ah worry for her sometimes" "I worry too, for many other things besides that", Trixie said. "Tell me about it", Spike said. Apple Bloom glared at them a moment, as if telepathically telling them to 'shut up'. "Maybe you girls can find a colt her age that can get me off her mind?" Peter suggested, that lit up something in Johnny's head, "Rumble!" Everyone turned to Johnny confused, he proceeded to explain, "One of Rainbow Dash's weather patrol helpers Thunderlane, he has a brother named Rumble who's around the same age as you girls, maybe you can try him or something" Scootaloo spoke up, "I think I know him, small, gray coat, black mane that looks like he's been flying really fast, problem is from what I've seen, he'd ridiculously shy, he won't be able to win her over." "I can help him with that, I'm a wiz when it comes to the ladies", Johnny said with a smug grin, much to the annoyance of everyone around. "If you're so good at that, where's your cutie mark on it...actually you seem to be a blank flank, so did Logan, guess y'all have to earn yer marks like Peter did", Apple Bloom said. Johnny looked down, "I'm aware, I'll figure it out later, not important right now", Johnny turned to Peter, "So what do you think of Sweetie Belle's blind date idea, sound good?" "Can't hurt I guess, I'm desperate to get her off my mind, I thought it was bad enough Luna had a thing for me, at least she's able to contain her emotions...sorta," Peter said, looking to the side. "Luna? Who's Luna, and what do you mean sorta?" Johnny asked. "Long story, let's just say it involves love, jealousy, and the symbiote", Peter answered, much to Johnny's worry. "That symbiote is bad news." "Twilight destroyed it at least, so we don't have to worry about it". Johnny cringed a little, "Don't count on that too much". Peter raised his eyebrow, "What does that mean?" Johnny shook his head, "Long story, I'll explain soon, just keep an eye out, the villains are planning evil stuff". That concerned Peter, "Great, more trouble". Johnny nodded, but resumed the current convo, "So Sweetie Belle, this Luna chick, who else has a thing for you?" "Luna's a princess by the way Johnny", Peter said. "OK fine, Princess Luna, who else?" Trixie spoke up, "There's also that wall eyed mare". "Trixie! That's not a nice way to describe her!" Apple Bloom said. Trixie scrunched her face in shame, "Right, my apologies". Apple Bloom nodded, "It's fine, ah know you didn't mean any offense." "You need to introduce me to more ponies, I'm eager to meet this wall eyed chick", Johnny said, earing a glare from Peter. "Her name is Derpy, and don't call her wall eyes, Apple Bloom just made that clear to Trixie!" Peter shouted, clearly annoyed. Johnny stifled a laugh, "Derpy?" he continued to stifle, Peter's glare making it easier to drop it, "Sorry, unique name though". Twilight made her way outside with her friends, Logan and Sweetie Belle, "We should get going soon" "I'm gonna stay with Applejack, help watch over the girls", Rarity said. Johnny approached Rainbow, "Do you know where your friend Thunderlane lives?" "Friend? Maybe if you use that term loosely, but I know where he lives, why?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Just take me there, I have an awesome idea". Rainbow shrugged, "Ok", she looked to her friends, "See you all later". Johnny turned to the others, "See ya Pete, bye ladies". The two flew off, Twilight was confused, "What was that about?" "Johnny's gonna find a coltfriend for Sweetie Belle", Apple Bloom said, much to Sweetie's curiosity. "A coltfriend? What for?" "To help you get over yer unhealthy obsession with Peter", Apple Bloom bluntly stated. Sweetie glared, "I don't have an unhealthy obsession!" As they girls argued, the rest decided to leave them be, Applejack and Rarity simply went inside, calling over Aunt May to bring over Mayday. Soon all the ponies went home, with Twilight, Trixie, Spike, Mayday Peter and Logan heading back to the library. "Hey would you all mind going on ahead a little, I need to ask Peter something private", Twilight said. The others nodded and grabbed Mayday to go ahead a little, Twilight turned to Peter, "So your friend wants to play matchmaker with Sweetie Belle?" Peter nodded, "He says it could help, though I almost let my little secret slip out". "So if Sweetie had a coltfriend and didn't like you that way you'd feel a bit better about what happened?" Peter shook his head, "I'll never forgive what I did, but maybe it can alleviate things, it isn't fair to Sweetie that I shove her away, it's not healthy to me either, every time I look at her, sometimes I see the future version, and I swear she wants me, I can't handle that, I shouldn't even be thinking of another mare, it's wrong", he looked to Twilight, "You're my wife, I should only be thinking of you, cause I love only you, I just can't handle this". Twilight pitied Peter, she didn't like what he did, not just because it betrayed her love, but seeing how much Peter is bothered by it, he feels he made so many mistakes, she knows this is something else that's gonna eat at him, she almost wishes that future Sweetie Belle was here right now...so she can knock her into next week for going near her stallion like that. "I just want you to get past it Peter, if I can forgive you, why can't you forgive yourself? I mean since then you've only been that much more loyal to me, you have never even gave any mare a second glance, and the fact that you're so bothered to be near Sweetie just shows me how much you value our marriage, and one little slip shouldn't ruin that," Twilight stated. Peter nodded, "I guess so" he then shared a kiss with her, "I love you, you're the best wife a sap like me can ask for." "You're not a sap Peter, you deserve me, because you know there's nothing better than me," Twilight said confidently. The two chuckled a bit, then heard Spike belch. "What the...you throw up a letter or something kid!?" Logan said. Twilight's eyes widened, "Did Celestia return my letter?" Peter looked curious, "That letter you wrote on the way to the farm?" Twilight nodded and levitated the letter, "I told Celestia about our visitors, both your friends and the enemies", Twilight then read the letter, as she finished she beamed a smile, "Looks like you and your friend Johnny will be meeting Princess Celestia tomorrow!" "Sweet, we going to Canterlot then?" Peter asked, Twilight nodded in response, "It's so great, hey Logan you'll get to see Luna again" Logan huffed, "That's nice". "Well it's nice they can see Celestia and Luna, maybe we can then go to the Crystal Empire and introduce them to Cadance", Peter said. "That's an even grander idea!" Twilight shouted with glee. "Ok, well first thing's first...Canterlot!" Peter said. The group trotted back home, little did they know, a certain somepony had heard everything they said, as Vega was then seen on a tree trunk. "So...an appointment with the princesses, and now we know where all of them live...it also looks like Parker has a dirty little secret that he doesn't want anyone else to know, but who is this Sweetie Belle girl that bothers him so much...perhaps back at that farm?" Vega flew over to the farm area and saw the Crusaders in the distance, he knew one of them was Sweetie Belle since he overheard Apple Bloom address her by name. "So that's Sweetie Belle...she lovely young girl...as for her other friends...the one with the bow looks ok, the other one...is that even a filly? Her hair looks like a boy's hair. Eh, no es importante, I need to keep an eye on them" They had soon stopped arguing for the moment, mainly because Scootaloo started complaining and suggested they move the conversation, and then simply started heading back to their tree house. He followed them there secretly and leaned against their door to listen in on their conversation. "Seriously though Sweetie Belle, y'all need to give this colt a chance, give up your obsession for Peter", he heard Apple Bloom said. "But I love him Apple Bloom, he's so handsome and charming, if I were older I'm sure he'd like me", Sweetie said. "You don't love him, that's your sister Rarity's influence on you, thinking you love a pony, it's just a crush, at least even Rarity knows when handsome isn't enough, that's why she whacked that guy hard yesterday, he's handsome but evil", Scootaloo said. Vega remembered that, how Rarity put his hands on his beautiful face, "So this Sweetie Belle filly is the younger sister of that puta that stuck my lovely face..." "I heard she only did that because he called Spike ugly, I don't fully agree with that but I think it was out of line, I never would have done that, I heard he was really handsome too", Sweetie said. "Y'all should listen to Scootaloo though, don't be such a love-struck filly", Apple Bloom said. "I can't help it, I have needs", Sweetie said. "What needs!? You don't even know what 'needs' are!" Apple Bloom said. "I just need a good stallion like Peter, one to make me the happiest filly in the world", Sweetie stated with dreamy eyes. Vega grinned, "This filly sounds like a vulnerable emotional wreck, perhaps I can use that to my advantage if I get a chance to charm her...not now though, her friends are nearby, but provided her sister goes to visit those princesses, that's my opportunity...one step closer to ending Spider-man and his Equestrian Friends", Vega flew away. Meanwhile at Thunderlane's house, Johnny and Rainbow arrived at his front door, Johnny having explained everything to Rainbow Dash. "You really think setting Sweetie Belle up on a date with Rumble is a good idea?" Rainbow asked. "Hey she needs to move on from Peter, it's not healthy to be obsessed with a married person, Peter should know that though, he once had a thing for my sister even though she was married" Rainbow chuckled, "Seriously, he liked your sister!?" Johnny looked glum, "It was really awkward...one time I visited an alternate reality where Peter was married to my sister, it was awful." Rainbow laughed more, "Holy crap, really!?" Johnny nodded, "Yeah, he wanted me to do push ups, jerk", Johnny then proceeded to knock on the door to Thunderlane's house. Thunderlane answered a few moments later, "Rainbow Dash? Johnny Storm? What brings you both here?" The two Pegusai grinned at Thunderlane. "We have a proposition for your little brother, one he might like", Johnny said. Thunderlane looked confused, "Huh?" "Let's talk inside, bring Rumble, it's a huge opportunity he won't want to pass up", Rainbow said. The Pegusai went inside to discuss the date stuff with Thunderlane and his brother Rumble. Meanwhile in another city, word got out about he villains, one Pegasus in particular, Lightning Dust, heard about the villains and their search for Spider-mane and The Elements. "Pfft, Spider-mane, tired of hearing about him, and I'm really tired about hearing about his Harem of Harmony, those damn ponies ruined my hopes and dreams". Lightning Dust has never liked the Elements much since that day in the Wonderbolts Academy, the day they caused her to be booted and humiliated, especially Rainbow Dash. She sat on a bench and started to reflect on the news, "Here's hoping those villains give The Parker-Sparkle couple what they have coming, I won't feel sorry for them one bit".
