//------------------------------// // A new world, a new beginning // Story: An Unusual Romance 2: Jason's adventures in Equestria // by DashieFan258 //------------------------------// "Jason!" a familiar voice called out. I recognized that voice. It was the voice of the pony I fell in love with. The one who spent 6 months under my roof and my care. Next thing I knew, her hooves were wrapped tightly around my waist. I pulled my head out from the looped knot of the rope that hung from the ceiling and stepped down from the chair and wrapped Twilight tightly in my arms. I could feel tears begin to build up in my eyes. "Twilight. You...You came back for me." I say, still trying to process what just happened. Twilight looked up into my eyes. "How could you even think of doing that to yourself? How do you think that would make me feel?" She asks, as tears begin to well up in her eyes. I Bury my face into her mane and take a long inhale. The familiar smell assures me that she's really here again. "I came back to bring you with me. Celestia granted me permission to bring one thing back, but she never said what thing." Twilight continues. "Wouldn't that make the Princess mad?" I ask. "I don't care. As long as I'm with you, it will be worth it." She says with a slight grin as she gently nuzzles my chest. "Are you ready? I don't have much longer." She says. I give her a slight nod and she lowers her head and closes her eyes. Next thing I know, we're surrounded by a bright light. I can feel Twilight's magic coursing through my veins. It's like a tingling sensation. Kind of like when your legs fall asleep, only all over. I close my eyes to shield my retinas from the intense light. --------------------------- THUD! I slowly open my eyes and find myself laying on the floor. I sit up and look around, and I'm instantly taken in by the familiar sight. I'm sitting in Twilight's library. Shelves packed with books line the walls. I turn my head to the side and see Twilight is on the floor beside me. She's breathing slowly and her eyes are closed. That much magical power must have drained her. "Twilight? Was that you?" A voice calls from the other room. I decide to say nothing, not wanting to startle the owner of the voice. "Twilight?" It calls again. I remain silent. Then, a small green dragon enters the room carrying a plate of cookies. Our eyes meet, and he drops the plate with a loud crash. He opens his mouth to scream but I place a single finger on my lip. "Shhh" I say, pointing to Twilight. "W...What are you? Who are you? How did you get here?" I stand up and dust myself off. "Name's Jason. Twilight brought me here, Spike." "How do you know my name?" Spike asks "It's a long story." I say. "I came from earth. Twilight lived with me in my house when she disappeared." Twilight let out a small yawn and her eyes slowly opened. She looked up at me and smiled wide. "Yes! It worked!" She said as she wrapped her hooves around me. "Twilight, do you mind explaining what they hay is going on?" Spike asked. Twilight looked to him and let go of me. She cleared her throat and began to introduce me to the dragon. "Spike, this is Jason." She says, pointing a hoof at me. "He's a human. He comes from a very distant and strange world. We spent a lot of time together. I guess you can say he's my coltfriend." "Boyfriend" I corrected her. "Oh...yeah. Right." She said. Spike looked at me, then to Twilight. He pointed a claw at us. "You two are...together?" He asked. We both nodded in unison. "I guess that's ok but if Celestia finds out..." "She won't find out." Said Twilight. Raising a hoof to stop spike from finishing that thought. "She doesn't know I brought him back. And I'd like to keep it that way for as long as I can." Twilight said, dominantly. I leaned down to Twilight's ear. "What happens if she finds out?" I whisper. "Let's just say, interspecies relationships are frowned upon." She replies. "Jason, can I speak to you in private?" Asks spike as he gestures to the other room. I look down to Twilight and she gives me a nod. I hesitantly follow Spike into the next room. "Ok,so I don't know who you are or what your plans with Twilight are. But I will keep your guys' secret safe. But if you ever hurt her, Celestia help me I will..." I cut him off. "Spike, I would never hurt Twilight. She's the most important thing to me. I understand your hesitance towards me but I swear to you, I'm not here to hurt anyone er.. anypony. I'm just here to be with Twilight." Spike gave me a glare for a few seconds and crossed his arms. "Ok. But I got my eye on you." He says. He left it at that and left the room. I followed closely behind and sat beside Twilight, who was already face deep in a book. "What're you reading?" I ask as I put a single arm around her. "Just some biology stuff. You wouldn't be interested in it." She said, not taking her eyes off the pages. "If you're interested in it, so am I." I say with a grin. Twilight looks up at me and returns the smile. "Jason, you have no idea how happy I am to have you here with me."She says. "Ditto." I reply Twilight gives me a confused look. "What?" She asks. "It means same here. So anyway, I guess I got to find a place to stay?" I ask. "Nonsense. You'll stay here with me. You let me stay with you in your house so it's my turn to return the favor." Twilight said with a dismissive wave of her hoof. "Thanks, Twilight. I love you." I say as a smile spreads wide across my face Twilight blushed slightly. "Jason, Spike's right there." She said. "You're embarrassing me." She says with a slight giggle. "Oh come on, he know's we're together. So what's the harm?" I ask in a slightly teasing tone. "I guess you're right. I love you too,Jason." Says Twilight. I leaned down and gave her a kiss. She returned the kiss happily. Spike just stood on the stairs, arms crossed and glaring at me.
