//------------------------------// // Magical and Physical Training // Story: The Love of a Farm Pony 2 // by Fiction Quill //------------------------------// Its day one of your training and you are heading over to Twilight's to begin your training on how to have better control of your magic you have gained from the Blade of Harmony. But on your way to Twilight's Castle you started to wonder where did the Blade of Disharmony come from? The Blade of Harmony was made with the Elements of Harmony but there is no Elements of Disharmony. You shrug it off for now but would ask Princess Celestia about it later. You arrive at the castle with an eager Twilight waiting for you. "Oh my gosh this is so exciting! i have never had a student before this is going to be so much fun!" You chuckled to see how giddy Twilight was. "Well someone seems rather enthusiastic today" Twilight couldn't help but blush out of embarrassment. "Sorry it's just i have always wanted to have a student like Princess Celestia but i couldn't find anypony i could teach because either their magic wasn't going to help them much or they weren't interested to begin with" "I understand i am just hoping i can get the hang of this but i should warn you now Twilight i can't learn the way you teach. I am a hand's on kind of learner i have to do it and experience it in order for me to learn it. Studying about it will only confuse me more." "I understand but i will need to at least explain how to do them before you attempt these thing, otherwise it can be dangerous and i don't want you to practice these spells or your magic unless i am around but once you get the hang of it the you can practice any time you want." "I understand just please explain them in layman's terms" *layman's terms?" I laugh almost forgetting that term isn't in Equestria. *Well back where i am from when someone says explain it in layman's terms it means they need the explanation to be simple to understand basically don't use big words." She giggles as she nods in understanding. "I understand a lot of ponies can't handle big words and i am guessing it is the same way with humans so i don't blame you. So are you ready to begin?" "Well i will be once Applejack shows up this magic stuff will be difficult so i really need her support to help motivate me." No sooner did you say that Applejack rushed into the library obviously worn out from running all of the way over here. "I am so sorry for being late Allen i overslept why didn't you wake me up?" "Because you look so peaceful sleeping i didn't want to disturbed you. Besides i can tell that you didn't get much sleep when i was in shock of my defeat against Dark Light so i figured i would let you sleep in to get your energy back" She smiles at you lovingly as she hugs you and kisses you on the cheek. "I really appreciate that honey but i know you need me here to help you be more motivated to learn these things. I would just feel awful if you didn't get this magic stuff down all because i was too busy sleeping." "To be honest Applejack i knew you would show up once you woke up that's why i wasn't worried i know you wouldn't leave me in my time of need. After all you are the most dependable of ponies." "Especially to you sugarcube." Twilight simply smiles from seeing how in love you two were. "Alright enough chit chat we need to get started so are you ready?" "You bet i am Twi! Lets get this training started!" You begin your training and after a few hours you got the hang of channeling your magic into your blade at will. Controlling it however proved to be a tougher challenge. But you persisted due to the encouragement of your marefriend Applejack. When you sit down to take a break Rainbow Dash shows up. "Hey Al i know you are training with magic so you can be better prepared against Dark Light so i figured i would help train you physically when you have the time Applejack can train with you and i know you will be even more motivated if she does." You look down at your belly and poke it causing it to jiggle slightly. "Well i am a little chubby and i could use the extra strength not just against Dark Light but when i am able to help out again in the orchard too. What do you say Applejack?" "I say lets do it you could use a little more muscle not that there is anything wrong with you now i love you just the way you are but if we are going to stop Dark Light we need all the strength we can get." Twilight nodded. "I agree give your mind a break for the rest of the day and go do some physical training just don't over do it on him Rainbow if he over-works his body while his mind is tired it could seriously hurt him. He needs to be able to get used to using his magic before he works really hard physically." "So take it easy on him for now until he get's used to your training? you got it Twi! i agree we don't need to endanger him especially since he is the only one who can beat Dark Light. Now lets go Allen and A.J. we need to get going before it gets too dark at least it is fall so you won't be over working in the heat." "Alright lets get going you two i am anxious to get stronger!" "Anxious huh? i like that got some good confidence and attitude there and with that you are sure to go far!" "That's my Allen always ready to prove himself." Applejack smiled and hugged you and you returned the hug. After you, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash went out for a little exercise you go back home to Sweet Apple Acres. Applejack prepares you both dinner after a hard days work. After you both eat you decide to take a shower and Applejack took one after you. Applejack decides she wants to sleep with you from now on instead of in her own bedroom so she takes whatever belongings she has and moves them into your room so you can spend as much time together as possible. Applejack knew you needed her more than ever now that the safety of Equestria rests on your shoulders but you still can't help but wonder how the Blade of Disharmony come to be. The blade looked similar to yours in a way it had the same exact shape but different colors, instead of the Blade of Disharmony being gold with a rainbow aura surrounding the blade it was black with a green aura surrounding the dark blade. something didn't add up about the blade and you decided to talk to Princess Celestia about Dark Light and the Blade of Disharmony when you get the chance. You have been training for 10 months now and you decide it is time for a break. You and the mane six, Spike and Discord decide to go on a camping trip together it has been a while since you was able to relax with your friends and you have been training practically non stop but you are no longer chubby in fact you are started to get some muscles from your work out and you noticed you have some magical traits as an Earth Pony and Pegasus. You find it strange you don't have any unicorn powers either but immediately shrug it off not really caring. When we arrived at our destination Discord used his magic to set up the camp sight and a tent with the inside of the tent being larger than the actual size with every pony having their own rooms with a few exceptions. You and Applejack was obviously sharing a room since you two were together same with Fluttershy and Discord and Twilight and Spike also shared a room since he was her assistant but they still had separate beds. Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie each had their own separate rooms. We decided to camp out by a lake so we could go swimming and start a fire to make smores. You put on your swimming trunks that Rarity had made for you and you decided to go shirtless this time since you mostly have muscle. "Why darling i must say you look rather attractive now that you have muscles." Rarity said as she made her way down to the shoreline to the water. "But don't fret Applejack i would never stoop so low as to steal someones special somepony away." You couldn't help but chuckle. "Plus i only see you as a sister Rarity even if i wasn't with Applejack i could still only see you as a sister but i can't imagine myself with any other pony than Applejack." Applejack smiled hugged and kissed you from the comment and you returned the kiss "Awe shucks Allen i can't Imagine being with another male than you." "Well everypony let's have some fun swimming and just let me know when any of you are hungry we will have lunch and i can make everything." Discord smiled knowing he can be a big help. "Thanks Discord but me and Applejack made our own breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the next couple of days we worked on it together so we will stick to what we have." You and Applejack smiles at Discord who nods in understanding. You and Applejack and your friends spent a couple of days camping although when you and Applejack needed some time to yourself you both just went for a walk or sat on the beach in solitude while holding each other in a tight embrace. The second night though was the better one it was the perfect romantic setting. "I can't believe it has been almost a year since we got together Applejack it has been an amazing one though." Applejack smiled. "It has been the best year of my life sugarcube. My life has been so much better ever since you fell into it." "Same here my beloved Applejack." "Do you miss it? Your old home i mean. Do you sometimes wish you could just go back?" "Well i do miss my family. I don't really miss my world though and i would rather not go back. Besides why would i want to go back when i found true love here with you?" Applejack couldn't help but smile and blush "D-Do you really mean that?" "Of course i do Applejack i couldn't bare the thought of not being with you. I can't even stand the thought of you not being in my life." Applejack threw her hooves around your neck and you shared a deep passionate kiss. Things got silent for a while. You have been with this mare for a long time and you feel the time is right to ask her. You have had this on your mind for a while but you knew deep down the moment was right. As you sat beside each other you broke the silence. "Applejack." "Yes Allen?" "I have had something on my mind for a while and there is something i have been wanting to tell you and ask you for a while now." "Alright honey what is it?" Applejack smiled warmly. "Applejack i am not very good with words but i can say that being with you has made me the happiest person alive. I wouldn't be alive today if it wasn't for you Applejack you saved my life twice. First time was when i first arrived in Equestria. If you and your family hadn't taken me in i would have eventually died of starvation. The second time was when i had that fever a year ago. If you wouldn't have taken care of me not only would i be dead but we might not have ended up together and i just can't imagine what that would be like. Applejack you complete me. You have given me a happy life now i think it's time i spend the rest of my life with you." You pull out a small black box and you open it you reveal a diamond ring. Applejack's eyes shot open and she started to cry tears of joy as she smiled brightly. "Applejack will you marry me?" "YES! YES I WILL!" You couldn't help but laugh, smile, and cry all at the same time. she said yes and you couldn't be happier as you put the engagement band around her hoof as she stared at it for a moment appreciating the ring and then she pulled you into one of the most deepest and passionate kisses you have ever shared with the farm pony.
