Peter, Twilight, Spike, Felicia along with Logan materialized in a flash of light, finding themselves somewhere on the outskirts, far away from Canterlot, surrounded by early summer nature, green grass and trees flickering in a gentle warm breeze with a beautiful midday weather, with sun once again taking its place shinning on the blue sky with a few clouds present.

After their very long and uneasy night, with summoning Logan from Earth into Equestria and then rescuing their mutant friend from the wraith of Timber Wolves, only for the X-Men to be later transformed into a pony and being kidnapped by Rover, Fido and Spot, scheming and intrigues, the Avengers being lured into a trap and nearly turned into mindless zombies by Grogar, Princess Celestia being kidnaped and then the Avengers fighting Grogar, his Diamond Dogs minions army including his newly found partner in crime Catrina the Feline Sorceress and eventually rescuing Ruler of Equestria before evil ram necromancer could suck all of her power and then using it for his own twisted malicious purposes. So many things transpired within one night and for Peter, Twilight, Spike, Luna, Sunset, Spitfire, Felicia along with Logan as well as the Council it just had been a little too much to comprehend.

Yet luckily, Princess Celestia as always was so kind and letting Peter, Twilight, Logan and their friends to stay overnight in Canterlot Castle so they could get well deserved rest and sleep. Despite there were lots of other matters at hand that needed to be carry on and concerned with, Luna remained in Canterlot, still resting after her very long and difficult night to remember with her fellow Avengers, while Spitfire, being brand new member of the Avengers now, had to officially converse her situation and new post with the Wonderbolts, as well as Sunset also had some matters in Canterlot she need to carry on.

Peter, Twilight and Spike however on the other hoof had a way different plans for today. With Logan, having literally no home and nowhere to go, the couple decided and without hesitation to personally take care for the X-Men, offering him living in the Golden Oak Library along with their family like their guest of honour for indefinite period of time. Peter and Twilight also knew that it also would be good for Logan to take a closer look and adjust to his new life in Equestria.

However, and quite for Twilight dismay, Felicia firmly insisted to come along as well. It was more than obvious, that cat burglar refused to go back into Baltimare after such a long trip as well as not taking a living in some cheap hostel in Canterlot, although Princess Celestia would take care for the costs.

And although Twilight unambiguously refused to have a snow-white mare as her roommate, Peter however gave his part of support to Felicia and eventually convincing his wife for the cat burglar to stay with them, at least for some time. And Twilight, exceptionally for her husband had no choice but submit, though somewhat involuntarily.

Despite being the team now, sticking together and both mares mutually expressing their though grudging respect for each other, young princess still and somewhat bore a slight grudge or even contempt to Black Cat from personal reasons.

Yet, being Peter Pony Parkers aka. Spider-Manes beloved wife and princess as well as being the Avengers now and on the same boat in order to save Equesria from Grogar, the mare tried to push those provoking feeling from her mind and even trying to patiently endure Felicias presence in the team as well as by Peters and her side, for now on at least.

“Man. I really cant git how ya ponies could ever use this kind of transportation.” Logan grumbled, feeling a little uneasy and still not being quite used to this kind of transportation via teleporting. Though and from an unusual reason, this teleportation think still wasn’t as bad as flying the plane for an example, more or less. “Who would like ta travel though time and space distributed on little pieces all th' time anyway?”

“It is nothing, Logan.” Twilight tried to lighten her tough mutant friend up. “When I was a filly and studying under Princess Celestia, even I found it kinda….disturbing for the first time. But I eventually get used to that. The teleportation is actually the most common and the safest meaning of travel in Equestria.”

“With an exception of a random teleporting, of course. You better avoid those.” Spike however intervened, speaking off somewhat cautiously, yet baby dragon rightfully stood by his opinion as Twilight chuckled sheepishly, also knowing what her number one assistant meant.

When Twilight and Spike were unfortunately chased down by the entire village of Ponyville due one extra ticket to Grand Galloping Gala, Twilight, being already stressed out and frazzled caused her magic to short circuit and randomly teleporting herself and Spike back into Golden Oak Library, though it was rather restraining and a poor young dragon ending up electrocuted by the discharge.

“Just look at it this way, old chum.” Now Peter declared in a moderating and more light-hearted like manner, yet also bearing a hint of sarcasm present in his words. “It is still way better than getting stuck within a worm hole for all eternity. Don’t you think?”

“In other words….It is perfectly safe.” Felicia scoffed in Peters offhanded response.

“Argh. Ya know whut, never mind that.” Logan huffed, dismissing the subject, evidently not being twice as impressed by stallions choice of words. Yet the Gruff stallion looked around and taking a few sniffs of local air of the countryside as a curiosity associated with it. “And either way, where are we?”

“Just turn around and you will see by yourself.” Peter simply replied yet prompting his gruff partner to turn around.

Though quite surprised about Parkers statement, Wolverine merely shrugged his shoulders and turning around nonetheless, yet gruff stallion nearly gasped in awe by the peculiar sight.

Right in front of him and his friends, in the distance, with a small fenced orchard with several apple trees on the left, with a path leading and over a small steam with a pink bridge over it stood a very beautiful village almost like from some sort of fairy tale, with various colourful cottages, having a water mill and something that looked like a tall spiralled tower in the centre. The village was surrounded by high hills and rounded mountains covered by snow. And in the distance, on the highest peak, a Canterlot was towering over the entire area, like some seat of the gods, with waterfalls flowing right down the mountain.

Logan literally found himself staring at the colourful village, having his mouth slightly agape, yet his straight serious expression intact as Twilight and Peter joined their outworlder friends side. “Logan...Welcome to Ponyville.” Twilight joyously welcomed Logan into her home village.

“A Ponyville….” Logan repeated after Twilight, testing a strange name on its tongue, yet the name actually fitted and set perfectly, for the world inhabited by talking ponies by the way for Wolverine.

“Yup. There is no place like home.” Peter smiled, standing up on his hinder hooves and stretching his front hooves over his head. “What do you think, buddy? Lovely, isn’t it?”

“Hurm..…It is very…..picturesque. I guess.” Logan replied in a somewhat hesitant like way, not quite being sure how to describe something this…beautiful in his way. Then again, gruff stallion had never been for any kind of mushy stuff or cute flatters anyway. It just didn’t suited for someone that battle hardened and tough like Wolverine. Yet deep down and surprisingly, Logan seemed to be quite impressed by the villages image, or at least he was conjuring that up.

“A village, huh?” Felicia, who by the way was without her trademark Black Cat costume and mask, yet arguably having it composite in a brown knapsack over her back in quite a disappointed like manner and brushing her white mane over her ear. “As much I like the looks of it, this is not quite my type of playground.”

“Could it be?” Twilight replied in a somewhat mocking like way with a load of sarcasm, which was quite weird and quite out of the character for somepony so dignified and sensible like Princess of Friendship by herself and denying Felicia a smug look. “Oh, I get it. The city girl is out of her element. The countryside though isn’t that bad when you get used to it.” Yet against her will, Twilight tried to somehow encourage her cat burglar teammate.

“You could always return back to Baltimare anytime if you are not fitting.” Spike dully noted, indifferently shrugging his shoulders while hopping on Peters back

“Now, look….” Felicia replied back cautiously and despite being evidently irritated by Twilights quirkiness and Spikes clever mouth remark, yet azure mare however tried to keep her cool and regaining her confident pose like a true cat. “True. Cats are usually not much for a change. But yet, they are very adaptable and willing to conform to different conditions when they have to. Actually, now when surrounded by all this nature, I may even discover my true self.”

“Fair enough. As long as you will keep claws away from everything sparkling. This is my town by the way. So please, keep it all classy Felicia.” Peter gave his old crime fighting partner a slight warning, prompting Felicia to not do anything stupid in his home town in an easy way. The wall-crawler knew more than anyone else Black Cats devious and unpredictable nature and it also would be good to keep an eye on cat like mare, just for sure.

“I will be sure to be a good kitty, handsome.” Felicia nonchalantly replied reassuringly and playfully winking at Peter with a sultry smile and gently butting her flank over Peters own, causing Peter to roll his eyes with a sheepish chuckle, yet knowing he could trust Felicia, though ignoring a glare that Twilight bore due to cat burglar persistent flirty attitude.

“Hurm, guys…” Logan suddenly spoke somewhat impatiently, tapping his front hoof to the grass, yet there could have been heard weak grumbles right from the mutants solid belly. “Are we goin' or yer just gonna banter all day?”

“I am with you, old chum.” Peter joined his gruff friends side, with Spike riding on young stallions back yet loud grumbles echoed right from Peters belly as well. “I am starving. What is more, it is almost lunch time. I am wondering what Aunt May has prepared this time?”

“Me the double, bro.” Spike agreed with Peters suggestion, while also being hungry himself and fastidiously licking his lips, which though wasn’t a surprise.

After their very long and uneasy night, the Avengers were evidently exhausted, needing to get a rest and getting their energy back. However, in Logans case, the X-Men was rather and literally starving, having practically nothing in his mouth ever since he was transported into Equestria. So, yet after a good night sleep, Peter, Twilight, Spike, Felicia and Logan could use a good warm meal, especially when it was nearly a lunch hour. So, they would all have a lunch with their friends and family back home.

“Now just remember, Logan.” Twilight however instructed Logan in a more urgent like tone. “From now on, it is important for you to better keep a low profile and for not attracting much of unwanted attention.”

“Yeah. It would be pretty disturbing for everypony to know, that there is one peculiar pony mutant living among them with metal blades coming out from his hooves you know.” Felicia added a little sarcastically, yet azure mare actually had a point about her statement.

“Ain't worry kid.” Logan grinned, yet reassuring young princess. “I will be sure ta be one my best behaivour.”

Although feeling a little uneasy with Wolverines reply, yet Peter managed an honest smile as a realization sparkled in his mind. “But just you wait Logan. If you behave nicely, there is a surprise waiting for you when we come home.” Peter playfully winked on Twilight, and wrapping his hoof over his wifes neck.

“Oh, I just love surprises.” Logan stated with an odd mixture of curiosity, sarcasm as well as a little uncertainty, yet knowing Parker of course, this would be definitely something good.


Peter, Twilight, Spike, Felicia and Logan crossed the bridge over the stream, finally reaching the edge of the Ponyville and proceed trotting through the towns streets. As it was already seen from the distance, there were lots of cottages side by side, being built in a timber-framed style, with distinct thatched roofs and overhanging upper floors. Logan was carefully looking around and checking his surroundings of the town, taking in details.

Eventually, the group soon reached the towns square with a large town hall in the middle and Logans eyes slightly widened by seeing instead of people lots of ponies inhabitants, either pegasus with their trademark wings with some keeping their frames in the mid-air, unicorns with their magic horns or normal earth ponies present. They all had various colours, different mane styles as well as each of them having their individual cutie mark on their flanks. Though, what was rather peculiar, that most of the ponies were actually mares, outweighing the stallions, as there were maximally four stallions or colts of ten. Yet, there were also some little foals among the population of either pegasusu, unicorn or earth pony heritage. However, they all shared a common and in Logans case quite a unnerving trait: they were irresistibly cute.

Wolverine took a few sniffs of the local air, as a very warmth and friendly atmosphere was surrounding the X-Men, evident by all the ponies smiling, having a good mood, hanging out, chatting and having a very good time with each other, living side by side peacefully.

“Yup. Some colourful paradise alright.” Logan whispered for himself sarcastically, like he actually and wouldn’t be much impressed by ponies soft, decent and rather mushy lifestyle. For a gruff stallion and battle-hardened brawler, this was a completely different world, a way differing from the one that he was coming from where it was mostly about survival and Logan would find himself difficult to adjust to it.

However, despite his cynical and grumpy side, deep down and under his adamantium skeleton ribcage, Logan couldn’t help but somehow actually enjoying the look as the ponies were living happily and normal lives, having families along with friends, hanging out with each other and living side by side in peace. That however was something that Logan found hard to accede and sometime even stop hopping to even have a normal life one day.

“Hey look!” Some of the mares suddenly called out joyously, yet Logan out of instincts springing himself up, guessing that whoever had just called, it was meant right on him. “It is Prince Peter Parker and Princess Twilight Sparkle!” Yet another mare called out, indicating on exactly on Peter, Twilight, Spike, Felicia and Luna. In the moment, the entire square sprung to life as the ponies started cheering and applauding by stomping wildly into ground to greet as well as show their respect to Peter Pony Parker aka. Spider-Mane, a Knight of Equestria and Twilight Sparkle, the Princess of Friendship as some of them even pulled out the cameras and making several pictures of the Power Couple.

Being a Knight of Equestria, Princess of Friendship so called Power Couple as well as being one of the highest-ranking officials along with Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadance and Shinning Armor, Perter Pony Parker and Twilight Sparkle were definitely one of the biggest and the most respectable celebrities in the entire Equestria as well as national heroes. And for citizens of Ponyville, it was of course a great honour to have somepony like Spider-Mane in their town as their personal hero, knowing that no matter what, the Knight of Equestria would always be there to protect them.

Peter and Twilight merely smiled warmly on the other ponies and waving their hooves to greet them back while Spike along with Felicia did exactly the same, while Logan though just nod his head, deciding not to attract much attention as the group proceed galloping their way throughout the village as they also missed a large billboard with an image of Spider-Mane all over it with a sign: “Spider-Mane, the Ponyvilles Greatest and True Hero.” Which quite attracted Logans attention.

“Yer must be really popular in here, kid.” Logan stated a bit with an uncharacteristic undercurrent of awe in his raspy voice and shifting his gaze right to Parker, who thought looked a little embarrassed by his gruff partners words, chuckling sheepishly. “It is quite an irony that here in Equestria it is an exact contrast then back in NC with Daily Bugle.”

“Popular?” Spike though blurted out in disbelief “They love him here. The whole town is talking about how Spider-Mane is the greatest thing to ever happened to Ponyville. You should have just seen bandwagons with his name and image on it.” Young dragon though stated in a more sarcastic like way, of course involuntarily embarrassing Peter even more.

“Pchm. Well Parker, it must be nice ta always have some of these fancy knights, th' shinnin' armour with ya and red carpet. Yer princess sounds pretty cool. Fittin'.” Logan stated sarcastically with a huge devious on his face, yet unwillingly mocking not just Parker but Sparkle as well.

“Logan, will you cut it out?” Twilight groaned annoyed as her cheeks slightly glowed with shades of pink in her own embarrassment. At this moment, the librarian thought she had to just deal with two clowns in the group.

“What can I say? I am a one in a million. I have a reputation to uphold – Ow!” Peter nonchalantly stated and taking a confident like composure, but once again a wisecracking stallion didn’t have the chance to finish as Twilight nonchalantly smacked his husbands head with her wing.

“And you too, Peter.” Twilight scolded her knight to behave, not helping either.

“Chmch. Some knight.” Felicia scoffed humorously, rolling her eyes by watching mutual bantering between her teammates. Yet, the mare would definitely love to hang out with them, before the group eventually continued galloping throughout the Ponyville.

“Look out below!” Suddenly a feminine sweet voice yelled out from behind right up, like somepony would be jabbing on the knives. In the instance, Peter perked himself by hearing the voice and his Spider Sense within his cranium started slightly buzzling for an upcoming potential threat, but it was already too late as a grey and brown blur collided with stallion and knocking him and Spike down to the ground with a loud crash.

Twilight along with Felicia and Logan just stood on the place and stared with bewildered expressions by seeing a grey pegasus mare, wearing a brown with some white aligned parts uniform and wearing a brown cap with an image of wings and red arrow in a white circle, having a blonde messed mane and seven bubbles like cutie mark on her flank lying right on top of Peter while Spike was lying around, groaning. Yet, the mare also wore a post bag around her waist with several letters and post being spread all over the ground.

“Okay….” “That has just happened.” Wolverine dully noted.

“Echm….Sorry. My bad.” The mare giggled embarrassed, while getting herself off Peter and making it on her hooves as her golden, yet strangely crossed eyes widened with a derpy like expression. “Oh. It is just you Peter.” The Pegasus exhaled in awe while extending her hoof to help Peter from the ground, as young stallion gladly accepted the mares gesture, helping him from the ground while shifting her gaze to Spike who also managed to get up from the ground. “Sorry about that. You too Spike.”

“Yeah. No problem, Derpy.” Spike simply yet without any hard feelings sighed as he brushed a dust from his hand.

“Derpy.” Peter happily addressed the cross-eyed mare by her name and denying her an honest warm smile, not seeming to be angry at all that clumsy pegasus inadvertently bumped into him like this in the slightest. “You are some late bird. How are you doing girl? What about Dinky?”

Derpy, a pegasus mare, easily recognizable with her trademark cross-eyed derpy like expression was arguably one of the Ponyvilles most notorious and titular background ponies, as well as being of the Spider-Manes biggest fans and Peters very close and good friend.

Unfortunately and sadly, Derpy was infamously clumsy, awkward and considered a hopeless inept by most of the ponies in town, as well as losing numerous jobs due to her clumsiness, incompetence and rather air-headed attitude and almost losing all hope in herself. Yet it all changed when Peter aka Spider-Mane came into Equestria.

He had always been there for Derpy. He was cheering her out, encouraging the mare not to give up as well as instructing her not to be affected what the other though about her, which actually was mutual, as Derpy was actually the first who gave Spider-Mane credits how heroic he really is and speaking for the entire village to cheer for an outworlder hero when Discords dragon attack Ponyville seven years ago.

It all actually paid off as the pegasus eventually grew up and gaining some confidence throughout the years thanks to Peters support and friendship, yet though still having the elements of awkwardness and slight clumsiness within her personality.

“Oh. Dinky is doing just fine at school, as well as do I, would you believe it? I have actually been on mail for almost five years now, without any much serious accidents happening to me.” Derpy literally howled out of excitement and bumping her hooves together, yet the mare chuckled with a sheepish expression in her derpy like face, like having some confession to make. “Well..…maybe I have lost some letter and still bumping somewhere and into otherpony by accident, but nothing peculiar.”

“Nopony is perfect, Derpy. Not even Spider-Mane.” Peter simply replied and playfully tapping Derpy on her shoulder. “Besides, I am very happy for you, that you have finally managed to keep your post for some time.”

“Thanks Peter, I really appreciate it.” Derpy giggled sheepishly with small shade of pink forming on her cheeks, yet not helping herself and with a vortex of emotions spiralling thought her mind and heart, the mare planted a soft kiss on Peters cheek affectionately, knowing that she could always count on him. Yet then, the mare finally realized Twilight standing nearby. “Oh. Princess Twilight. Nice to meet you.” Derpy exhaled in awe, somewhat clumsily yet out of respect bowing slightly to Princess of the Friendship.

“Hello, Derpy. How nice of you drop by.” Twilight happily greeted back while closing her gap between herself and the mare, yet glancing upon a post back with some the letters spread on the ground. Using her magic, young alicorn picked the letter via telekinesis and placing them back into the bag, before giving it back to Derpy. “I can see that you are quite busy. With so many mails and packages to deliver in a one day.”

“Indeed. With my qualities steadily improving, my duties are also doubling. I now deliver three times for a day. But it doesn’t matter to me. Neither rain, nor Dragons nor Griffons will stop me from getting the mail to everypony.” Derpy decisively declared with a willing and firm tone, standing firmly for her statement yet having a happy smile on her face for having a decent job as well as many ponies depending on her.

However, right then the Pegasus finally realized Logan standing aside. “Who is this, Peter?” Derpy asked while keeping her curious golden cross-eyed gaze fixed on quite a peculiar stallion with a strong and bulky built, having a metal dog tags around his neck and with strange yet unique hairstyle along with mutton chops on his cheeks, yet eying him a little questioningly, or if not being slightly intimidated by him.

“This is Logan. My old friend from far away.” Peter simply replied with a smile, giving his Pegasus friend an affirmative wink, assuring her that he was okay.

Though still looking a little questionably on a stone-faced stallion, Derpys expression eventually softened as a warm smile took its place on her face. “Hello, Logan.” She warmly greeted Logan.

“Hey there.” Logan replied back with his expression also slightly softening, his voice though still gruff yet aligned with kindness and managing a faint yet honest smile, nodding.

Despite being slightly taken aback by an unusually gruff voice the stallion had, Derpys warm smile remained intact, yet a curious expression took its place on mares face. “Say. I know lots of ponies across the Ponyville, but I have never seen you around here before.”

“Maybe it is cuz I have never been here before.” Logan simply replied and indifferently shrugging his shoulders in response.

“Logan has just arrived and is new in Ponyville. He will be staying with us for some time.” Twilight interjected, giving the best, simple yet honest explanation she could come up with without giving out too much unnecessary details.

Thinking nothing and merely shrugging her shoulders and nodding in understanding, yet Derpy also and right now realized Felicia, an azure snow-white maned mare standing aside. “And you are?”

“The name is Felicia. Felicia Hardy, sister.” Felicia nonchalantly introduced herself and shifting a strand of her hair over her ear. “I am also an acquaintance with Peter, staying with him. We will all have a nice time spending together.” Cat burglar explained and winking playfully on Peter, who of course felt a little uneasy with Felicias flirty attitude, earning a faint glare from Twilight.

“Nice to meet you, Felicia.” Derpy gladly replied, smiling warmly while sharing a glance with both Felicia and Wolverine. “Peters friends are also my friends.”

“Erghm…” Logan though murmured with a sudden question emerging from his mind. “Aside from bein' on pony express, why have ya been in such a hurry anyway, girl?”

“Wait, let me think….” Derpy murmured, while placing her hoof on her chin, thinking thoroughly about Logans question when eventually a realization struck her mind like a brick. “Oh yeah! I have just remembered that I still have so much work to do and mail to deliver and I am a little behind with it. I should better by flying now.”

And in the instance, the Pegasus spread her wings and lifting herself from the ground yet sharing one final glance with the group, waving her hoof while flying. “Anyway, it was nice to meet you, Logan. Enjoy your stay.”

“Derpy! Look out on that….” Peter however readily yelled out in warning but it was too late as Derpy, of course keeping her derpy expression fixed on her friends and not looking in front of herself collided with a wooden sign hanging from a near cottage as the mare fall down and thudding into ground.

“Sign.” Peter offhandedly finished his sentence, which by the way didn’t matter right not, sighing embarrassed as Twilight along with Spike slightly groaned, rolling their eyes while Felicia and Logan just dumbly stared on Derpy.

“It is nothing. I am okay.” Derpy chuckled embarrassed, yet managed to get herself from the ground, denying a warm smile and waving her friends for the last time before flipping her wings soaring into the air and shortly disappearing in the distance.

“That’s a typical Derpy.” Spike scoffed with his hands folded over his chest, yet in a good sense.

“Everypony just adores that girl. And I am sure you will love her too, Logan.” Peter chuckled cheerfully and playfully bumping Logans side with his elbow.

“Nice girl. But a little awkward. A little bit like ya, Parker.” Logan replied in a somewhat hesitant like manner, yet not helping himself but grinning smugly indicating to Parkers own odd behaviour at times, of course causing younger stallion to roll his eyes in an exasperated way.

The group continued galloping their way throughout the village, yet after a while Logan found his patience slightly declining. “Listen, guys? I really hate ta be th' annoyin' one, which is usually Parkers parquet, but.…Are were there yet?”

“It is alright, Logan. We are already here.” Twilight smiled at Logan as she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Quite astonished X-Men stopped in his tracks as well and questioningly looked around, in order to locate some peculiar and individual house/home where Peter, Twilight and Spike dwelled. “So, where is that shinnin' palace of yers anyway?”

Once again, Logans own quirky sarcastic remark managed to quite embarrass both Peter and Twilight, which however didn’t sound that weird after all, therefore being a princess and the prince and along with Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadance and Shinning Armor one of the top ranking officials in the entire Equestria, so someone would guess they had their very own shinning castle.

“Oh, this is getting priceless. You are just standing in front of it. Look.” Peter chuckled humorously for himself yet pointing his hoof forward, prompting Wolverine and Felicia to look by the direction Parker was pointing on and what they just saw in front of them literally took nearly all breath from their lung.

Right in front of them stood a large over 100 feet tall yet rather peculiar and unusual oak tree. Though, it rather and more likely looked like some twisted architect would design a new type of house in a form of a tree. It had three dormers on the sides with a leaf like roofs, yet one of the dormers had a lamp hanging above the window and one dormer along with two balconies right in the tree crown and there was a beehive hanging on a branch supporting the balcony. Yet, the entrance front door also had a leaf like roofing with a candlestick sign on it and a wooden sign of an open book on it.

“Logan and you too Felicia....Welcome to Golden Oak Library.” Twilight cheerfully stated, welcoming both visitors in hers, Peters and Spikes house.

“Home sweet home.” Peter nonchalantly stated, being evidently happy to be back home after a long night of fighting a megalomaniacal demonic ram, crazed feline sorceress and army of gem seeking mutts. “What do you think?”

“That’s your house?” Felicia murmured under her breath, being literally astonished by the way how Peter along with Twilight and his family lived happily and of all ponies, in a tree actually.

“Eghm…...Ya guys do realize that ya actually live in a tree, ain't ya.” Logan, who already managed to recuperate from his awe dully stated, yet with yet another sarcastic remark forming in his mind. “Chm. Guess it is will definitely cost ya a way cheaper.”

“Logan!” Twilight scolded the X-Men, feeling embarrassed by the mutants rather sour sense of humour, yet Peter gently patted his wifes shoulder, trying to moderate her frustration.

“I know it doesn’t look like a five-star hotel, Tony Starks manor or a castle in an Asgardian style, but we simply call it home here. Despite all of those birds singing in the morning, squirrels and bees, it is very spacious, it is full of books in case you would get bored and besides….Twilight and I could never be able to live in a sparkling fancy luxury like Tony Stark or that high like Thor in Asgard for an example.”

“Yeah. Come ta think of it that ya had always been broke back on Earth, Parker, it figures.” Wolverine grinned deviously.

“And come to think of it that you both live in a library and both being eggheads by nature, unfortunately, it perfectly suits you, you nerdy love-dovies.” Felicia added her very own sarcastic remark, scoffing humorously.

“Oh, grow up, will you?!” Twilight rumbled on with a both frustration and exasperation present in her voice, having just enough of both of her friends own eccentric and immature like manners. It was quite enough for young princess to deal with Peters own lame jokes and quirky annoying sense of humour. Spike however on the other hoof held both of his hands over his mouth, doing his best to conceal his laughter.

Yet, before the situation could get even worse, Peter once again interjected and quite desperately trying to settle a peace among both sides before someone brakes a muzzle. “Well...…Whatever. So, before you guys waste all of your warmth, how about we all come in. Unless you Logan scratch our house with your claws and Felicia getting stuck on a branch so we didn’t have to call firefighters.” Young stallion repaid his friends the same snide coin and winking reassuringly on his princess.

“Pchm! Well excuse me.” Felicia huffed irritated, while Logan merely grunted by response, as Peter eventually made them shut up for now.

“Well then…Lets go inside.” Twilight smiled somewhat sheepishly yet prompting her friends to come along to enter the library and using her magic via her horn with her magic aura engulfing the door that started slowly and steadily opening inch by inch. However, once again and just like several minutes ago, Peters Spider Sense within the back of his head started buzzling, but it was for nothing as a pink blur zipped from a doorway, colliding with the X-Men and knocking him to the ground with a loud crash.

“Okay….So that has just happened. Again.” Felicia dumbly stated what had just transpired.

Logan groaned, opening his eyes, with his vision slightly blurring yet eventually managing to settle on a pink pony towering above him, with a darker pink puffy mane, a deep ocean blue eyes full of sensitiveness and having a wide cheerful smile on her face.

“Logan.” Pinkie Pie with her trademark literally squeaking voice excited addressed Logan cheerfully, with her bright smile intact. “It is so nice to see you being alright and well. After what happened to you with those Timber Wolves.”

“Hurm…Do I know ya?” Logan murmured in disbelief, unable to get rid of his confusion with a weird pink mare standing over him when a realization struck his mind. “Hey. How do ya know whut has happened ta me with those wooden mutts?”

Yet luckily, Peter and Twilight stepped in and taking Pinkie Pie out of gruff stallions frame. “Sorry about, Pinkie Pie, Logan. She can be a little….Eghm…Unusual at times. But she only means well, especially when it comes for her friends.” Peter chuckled sheepishly, also feeling embarrassed for his hyperactive friends antics while helping Logan stand up.

“Uh? Pinkie…Whut now?” Logan murmured, still bewildered and not quite getting what was going on and the weird name.

“Logan. Pinkie. Please.” Twilight gently interjected and managing to stuck herself between Logan and Pinkie. “How about we all just get inside? We have so much to talk about.”

“Ouki Douki.” Pinkie simply replied, with her smile intact and happily bouncing her way back into the Library with Spike soon following with Felicia also coming in, while Peter and Twilight prompted their gruff and still a bit confused friend to come along. And despite still not getting what in the hack was going on, Logan slowly followed and entering the tree house.

“SURPRISE!” Suddenly and without Logan expecting it, a loud synchronized cheer of five females at once as well as a loud “SQUAKEEE” like sound echoed throughout the interior, causing Logan to nearly leap of fright as well as finding himself covered with confetti of various colours.

“Whut th'?!” Wolverine murmured in quite an utter shock, shaking his head and trying to brush the confetti from himself. “Whut was that for?!” The gruff stallion growled with a steadily rising irritation present in his gruff voice, yet managing to recollect his senses and taking a look around.

The Golden Oak Library trees interior was hollowed from a wood and just like its name suggested, it was indeed a library. It had a rounded hall with hollowed bookshelves around the circled interior walls decorated with flowers paintings, containing hundreds if not thousands books of various colours along with some scrolls and a small wooden ladder standing aside with a stairs decorated with red hearts leading upside into second floor. There was also a central stuck like table with a carved wooden head of an equine and on ceiling was an image strongly resembling Princess Celestias cutie mark of sun.

Yet finally Logans attention landed on a group of a rather very peculiar mares standing aside. There was an orange earth pony, with a blonde mane and tail, having green emerald eyes, wearing a brown cowboy hat and having three apples like cutie mark, looking more like a cowgirl.

On her left stood a very elegant and beautiful white unicorn with a darker violet sophisticatedly styled mane, tail and having slightly deeper blue eyes and having a cutie mark in a form of four blue gems.

There were also two pegasus mares, one with an azure fur, bright violet eyes, having a messy mane and tail with colours of all shades of rainbow along with a rainbow and cloud like cutie mark and bearing a tomboyish like look while the second one had a yellow fur, long pink mane and tail, a cutie mark with four pink butterflies, deep ocean blue eyes, yet a shy expression.

Yet in front of four mares stood Pinkie Pike, the ever-happy, hyperactive and talkative pink pony with her signature balloons like cutie mark, representing her happy and cheerful nature, of course having her famous party cannon in front, as Logan could assume that it was SHE who fired all that thrash on him.

“Erhm….” Wolverine murmured, with his astonishment deepening even further, which by the way was even beyond the standards for someone so reserved and stoic like Wolverine, to see five mares, beautiful ones even, in Parkers and Sparkles house at once. “Whut is up with th' harem ya got here Parker?”

“Excuse me?” The unicorn blurted out quite in disbelief while the reactions of other mares on Logans blunt question rather differed, though they all shared the same bewilderment.

The cow girl however chuckled in the response, while the rainbow coloured mane pegasus tomboy huffed in a very unladylike way.

“Um…” The yellow shy pegasus squeaked shamefully and just like her unicorn friend also feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Pinkie, however rolled her head on the side, like she would be quite clueless what Logan actually meant by that.

Peter, who of course along with Spike could help but happily laugh slightly step forward. “Logan. Meet Mane Six, yet also known as The Elements of Harmony.” Young stallion introduced the X-Men to his as well as Twilight closest friends, who by the way were all bound with young princess with a bond of friendship.

“Th' Elements of Harmony?” Logan murmured still a bit clueless, yet struggling to keep his confident and dignified composure.

“Logan…” Now though Twilight joined her husbands and gruff friends side, deciding to take it from there. “Allow me to introduce you.” The amethyst alicorn smiled happily and shifting her attention first to a beautiful white unicorn. “This is Rarity. The Element of Generosity. She is also a very talented fashion designer as well as our personal seamstress.”

“I am very pleased to meet you, Logan.” Rarity giggled sheepishly, being obviously embarrassed a little bit by Twilights flattering description of the fashion designer. Yet the unicorn bowed her head down in respect like a true lady.

“Then here is Applejack. The Element of Honesty. She is a very hardworking farm pony from Sweet Apple Acres.” Twilight then pointed on orange blonde farm pony.

“Howdy, partner.” Applejack happily greeted the gruff stallion with quite a tough southern like accent, yet in a more light-hearted and easier manner then Rarity did.

“Rainbow Dash.” Twilight then glanced upon to rainbow coloured mane tomboyish Pegasus. “She represents the Element of Loyalty as well as being the best and fastest fliers I know.”

“And…” Peter suddenly added. “She is also dreaming about being a Wonderbolt one of these days.” Young stallion mentioned his tomboyish tough friends childhood dream and ambition to be a part of the Wonderblots.

“That’s me.” Rainbow Dash proudly stated with a smug expression and maintaining something like a boastful like pose by flipping her blue wings and keeping her frame airborne.

“Then there is Fluttershy.” Twilight now mentioned a rather shy pagasus standing by Rainbow Dash side, slightly keeping her distance and being reserved. “She is the Element of Kindness. She is maybe a little bit shy, but always willing to help and stand up for her friends when needed. She also stayed by your side when we chased the Timber Wolves away.”

“Um….Hi, Logan. Nice to meet you.” Fluttershy meekly said with a near whisper yet denying a gruff stallion a warm smile.

“And I believe that Pinkie Pie doesn’t need any proper introduction.” Twilight humorously sighed while finally addressing Pinkie Pie, who of course edged closer to the ponyfied mutant when her face was just inches away from Logans muzzle.

“That is right. My name is Pinkie Pie.” Pinkie joyously squeaked, happily bouncing on the place. “But only a Pinkie is just enough, Logan. I am the Element of Laughter. Whenever you would need to cheer up, a good friend with a cheerful laugh or party to make, I am more than willing to be helpful.”

“Has just….A tick bitten her?” Logan murmured for himself inwardly, still being bewildered and not quite getting pink mares overjoyed and hyperactive behaviour, including speaking incredibly fast with squeaking.

“They all also helped us and along with Princess Luna, Sunset and Spitfire taking their parts on rescuing you from those Timber Wolves back in Everfree Forest while you were still unconscious and before you…eghm…changed.” Twilight explained the details about the last night.

Listening Sparkles honest words and with a certainty judging that they were true, Logan shifted his gaze back on Mane Six, finally turning back into his confident and dignified side, yet realizing that those mares were okay and friends with Parker and Sparkle, the best ones by the way and also assuming that they actually saved his life, a grumpy Canadian mutant assumed that he could return the favour somehow.

“Nice ta meet ya all. Applejack….Rarity….Rainbow…Dash….Fluttershy….Pinkie…Eghm…Pie.” Logan bluntly greeted and addressing the mares back with their names, doing his best to be on his best behaviour yet though his uncouth nature and gruff voice betraying him. “Hurm…...By th' way....Thanks fer savin' my hide back then. Guess I owe ya all also." The mutant though thanked the mares with a more honest deliberate tone.

“Ah, it was absolutely nothing, partner.” Applejack chuckled, smiling and dismissing Logans flatter while coming closer to the X-Men and playfully punching his shoulder. “It has been the least we could do for ya. We ponies should stick together.”

“You are also very lucky that Spitfire was nearby and saving you from those beasts before we came to your rescue and those horrible Timber Wolves getting you.” Rarity added as she closed her gap between herself and Logan.

“Do you….Feel alright? You have caught it very badly and falling unconscious.” Fluttershy meekly stated yet with a concern present in her low-tune voice.

“Pchm.” Logan however and quite for mares surprise smugly scoffed in response. “Th' Timber Wolves are hittin' like a bunch of sissies. If Creed was there, he would be laughin' up with me. And besides, bein' struck by the truck, fallin' from a near orbital heights, buried under debris and takin' blows from bozos with superhuman strength is on my daily routine ya know.” Logan explained quite indifferently, earning quite baffled gazes from the mares.

“It is?” Pinkie, with her rather clueless nature and taking a while before getting the point about Logans unusual statement, titled her head on the side questioningly.

“Though, bein' turned into a horse…eghm.…pony that has been pretty weird.” Logan though replied with his voice sounding more hesitant and scratching the back of his neck.

“No kidding, dude.” Rainbow Dash spoke off with an mixture of awe and shock in her voice as the memories associated with it. “When you changed back then, it was really some spectacle to be worth to see.”

“I can sympathize.” Peter though spoke off in a sympathizing tone and joining the group. “It arguably has not been that weird or worse when I along with Felicia first transformed into pony by myself.” Young stallion chuckled sheepishly and somewhat blankly glanced upon Felicia who merely scoffed and shrugging her shoulders.

“Oh well. It just ain't th' first weirdest thing that had ever happened ta me and probably ain't th' last one. Come ta think of it that now bein' a part of Parkers team of th' Avengers in an equine style and fightin' twisted demonic ram, armoured mangy mutts and crazed cat lady, I am more than willin' ta be convinced that anythin' might happen.” Logan though scoffed, yet his tone slightly lightening up a bit.

“Hey.” Suddenly Rainbow Dash spoke off in a rough like manner as her violet irises landed on Felicia standing aside. “What is she doing here.”

“We have just decided to provide ourselves a cat, Skittles.” Peter simply and a little awkwardly replied, yet though feeling uneasy, chuckling nervously by snow-shite mare winking at him playfully and it didn’t help either as Twilight once again glared like basilisk. “For a while, of course.”

“Oh! I would have almost forgot, Logan….” Rarity suddenly exhaled in a high-pitch tone, with a realization occurring in her head, as the fashionista used her magic to open a knapsack lying around and retrieving Wolverines leather jacket with her telekinesis from it. “Here is you jacket. It was badly brushed off and tattered, but I eventually manage to repair it for you as well as even washed it up.”

“Erghm…Thanks.” Logan thanked, though quite in an offhand like manner, surprised yet cautiously taking his jacket from Rarity and carefully checking it out. The sleeve that was badly gashed during his uncontrollable fall and rolling down throughout the Everfree Forest along with other gashes and bruises, were all repaired by stitches with a perfect seamstress work and accuracy, leaving minimum traces of damage visible.

“However, I have to ask you a question, darling.” Rarity however spoke off in a somehow adorable like manner, her deep blue eyes gleaming with interest. “Where did you get this fabulous specimen of leather. Such a copy and design is indeed unique, that even I couldn’t make something like that better by myself.”

“Here she goes again….” Applejack dully sighed for herself, feeling uneasy with her fashion loving friends trademark vain attitude, especially when it came to beauty and nice clothes.

“Erghm….It…Was a gift.” yet taking a few sniffs by catching a peculiar fresh, sour and clean like scent of interest that was coming from his jacket. “Whut th' heck is this? Citrus and clover?” Logan grumbled in bewilderment, judging the scent as he kept sniffing his jacket like a trained dog looking for drugs.

“Exactly.” Rarity nodded, yet also being surprised by Logans precise estimation. “The fragrance will also keep your jacket fresh somewhat longer.”

“Hurm. As much I am thankful fer yer thoroughness…But seriously, who wants ta smell like a garden salad with a citrus vinaigrette?” Logan grumbled, finding hard to believe that white unicorn seamstress actually fragranced his jacket.

“You can consider yourself lucky, dude.” Rainbow Dash sighed in a sympathizing manner, knowing very well how her new gruff friend felt. “Once when Princess Celestria intended to come on a visit into Ponyville, Rarity forced me into a tight fancy getup with a big wig like hat, so I could make a good impression on Princess Celestia. Boring.”

“Hurm….Amen there, sister.” Logan groaned back in quite a solemn like manner, yet inwardly being happy that there was somepony else who could empathize with gruff stallion. Wolverine then, though still feeling a little uneasy with a sour-fresh scent that was fragranced on his clothes, the X-Men grunted and yet not wanting to disappoint of being ungrateful slide his jacket on his bulky frame nonetheless.

Peter. Twilight. Spike.” Suddenly a voice of an older woman echoed from a doorway on the right, which quite attracted Logans attention by perking his ponyfied ear to the direction as a brown pegasus with a light grey mane emerged from a dining room, having her deep dark grey centred on Peter. “So you are finally home. Where have you been that long, son? I have nearly started worried.”

“Sorry, Aunt May. We had something important…Way important to take care off.” Peter chuckled sheepishly, trotting to his mother figure, hugging her with her hoof and nuzzling her cheek, before pointing his hoof over Logans direction. “Hey. Do you remember Logan?”

“Oh my.” May exhaled quite in awe, following her nephews gesture as an older mares attention landed on gruff stallion, checking his well familiar facial resemblances, spiked messy hairstyle, mutton chops as well as his trademark dog tag over his neck and leather jacket before a warm smile formed on Pegasus face. “So…You actually brought him in Equestria. Logan. How nice to see you again.”

Logan blinked his eyes several times in awe yet out of instincts clearing his nostrils and analysing the mares scent only to find out that he also knew her. “Miss Parker?” The X-Men blurted out in an utter confusion, despite his nose wasn’t deceiving to him, yet he quite couldn’t believe his own eyes as brown mare merely nod her head in approval. “Gee. Whut happened ta ya, lady. Have you visited springs of youth or whut? Pchm. Ya actually look more like Parkers older sis then an actual aunt.” Wolverine deadpanned and glancing upon Parker, still a bit clueless about the run of changes.

“I knew it would surprise you.” May chuckled embarrassed about one of Logans offhanded remark. “But don’t fret. Everything will be explained soon enough. We all have so much to catch up to do. If you also intent to behave yourself, of course.” The mare gave the X-Men a slight glare, as Logan merely grunted in response, yet giving his approval to behave.

“Ah. You are back, guys. I supposed you have had some night to remember?” Suddenly, another feminine voice echoed as an azure blue unicorn, with a fur quite familiar that of Rainbow Dawsh, having with a deep violet eyes, a light blue mane and a magic wand with a blue magic aura like cutie mark on her flank emerged from a doorway and closing her gap between herself and Wolverine, who looked at the mare in an interest.

“And I also see that you have brought a friend, along. Let me guess…Logan, right?” The mare replied in quite a sarcastic like manner while checking on a peculiar stallion with an unique hairstyle, mutton chops and metal dog tags over his neck.

“It is Sheila actually. I like long walks and fresh flowers.” Logan replied, trying to humour a supposed funny unicorn as well with sarcasm.

“Oh. I, well, um….” The mare stammered, being taken aback by gruff bulky stallions rather sardonic remark.

“Come on, Trixie. He is just pulling your hoof.” Peter however interjected, stepping between the X-Men and the azure mare. “It is his way how to be friendly. But, where are my manners? Logan, this is Trixie, right after Luna, my second BFF.” Young stallion introduced the magician to Wolverine and placing his hoof on mares shoulder, though unaware that unicorns cheeks were slightly flushing pink.

“The Great and Powerful Trixie, if you mind.” Trixie however, recuperating her senses and speaking off in a more theatrical and dramatical tone and maintain a rather boastful confident like pose, though without her trademark star clade hat and cape it wasn’t that stylish and original. “So, you are that mutant superhero Wolverine that Peter has been talking so much lately. You look pretty convincing, I guess. The hairstyle, mutton chops and those dog tags of yours…Please to make your acquittance.” Trixie spoke of somewhat hesitantly, yet managing to smile at gruff stallion nonetheless.

“Urm…Nice ta meet ya…The Great and Powerful Trix.” Logan replied back a little offhandedly, being quite stunned by magicians rather boastful attitude and composure, yet knowing that being also one of Parkers friends, he could trust her too. “And whut is yours position in th' herd, sister? Parkers personal maiden?”

Wolverine blunt question immediately caused Trixies expressions to stiffened with nearly all blood freezing in her veins, as the mare felt heat in her cheeks rising and being red as a tomato. “Me?! Parkers maiden?! Not even till the end of times!” She rumbled out of embarrassment, and it didn’t help in the slightest as Peter smirked provocatively on the magician, causing Trixie to groan inwardly. “Oh great. Just what I need. Another clown for a roommate.”

“Daddy! Mommy! You are Home!” Suddenly a feminine voice of a young girl, aligned with youth and joy echoed, attracting everyponys attention, though Logan on the other hoof looked like especially taken aback by the sweet little voice that was coming from the upstairs. And in the instance a small Pegasus filly with a cutie mark on her flank being the same as both her parents, a spider on a pink like star with sparks, yellow golden eyes as well as strikingly familiar mane fixed into a ponytail of a dark blue colour and pink strip, just like Twilights emerged from the hollowed front door and leaped from the stairs, flipping her wings and gliding, or rather freefalling in quite uncontrollable her way right to Peter who instinctively spread his hooves and coughing the foal, though being unwillingly knocked down to the floor, with filly resting over his chest.

“Mayday.” Peter softly grumbled while rubbing his aching head as his daughter was towering over him with her hooves placed on stallions chest. “How many times have I told you not to lunge on me like this?”

“I am sorry daddy. But I have just though I might finally do it. While I still cannot fly properly, at least I could by able to control a freefall.” Mayday chuckled sheepishly yet her expression turning quite exasperated, flapping her tiny wings frantically in her frustration.

It was quite an irony. With Peters as an unicorn without and unable to use magic and unfortunately his daughter Mayday unable to fly yet, the father and daughter were perfectly complementing each other. Which was arguably the reason why they were both so close, with Mayday even probably preferring her father over mother, being her idol and role model.

“It wasn’t that bad, kid.” Rainbow Dash though said encouragingly. “You have almost had it this time. But…You really should work on your landings a bit.”

“Don’t encourage it, Rainbow.” Twilight however scolded her rainbow mane friend not to prompt her daughter without her mothers permission or watch.

“Whut is this all about?” Logan asked with a steadily rising confusion and his utter bewilderment deepening steadily rising, as the gruff stallion yet took a few cautious sniffs and taking a scent of a young pegasus filly and quite for his awe judging her scent on one hundred percent identical to that of Parker and Sparkles, which only meant one thing.

“Logan. Meet Mayday. Our daughter.” Peter happily stated, having a warmest smile on his face, officially introducing his and Twilights beloved daughter to Logan while gently rubbing Maydays mane on her head and also introducing Mayday to the X-Men. “Mayday, this is Logan.”

“Ya….Have a….Daughter?” Logan meekly replied, with his gruff voice nearly wavering, unable to supress his awe, which was rather and totally out of character for someone that stoic, reserved and with a no-nonsense attitude like Wolverine.

“Hi, Logan. It is so nice to finally meet you in person.” Mayday happily addressed Logan with a joyous smile and closing her gap between herself and the gruff stallion without any shame or hesitation and extending her hoof. “Daddy has told my so much about you.”

Logan, who found himself staring at young fillys deep golden eyes full of sensibility, her innocent and cute expression was literally left speechless. Despite his usually intimidating appearance and stone-faced expression, Logan just couldn’t help but mellow himself, though a little above foal, turning into his way more caring and softer side. “Well I will be dammed. Nice ta meet ya, kid.” Logan chuckled quite playfully, his voice though still gruff being significantly softened and accepting kids gesture. The gruff stallion then turned his attention back to Parker and Sparkle with his smile intact. “Pchm. Who would have known, Parker. Bein' happily married with a princess, havin' a beautiful daughter and livin' happily ever after. Congratulations kid.”

“Wow….” Peter exhaled in awe bewildered and finding hard to believe what he had just heard. Wolverine, a usually stone-faced tough guy brawler with an explosive tempter, who mostly solved the problems with his razor sharp adamantium claws wasn’t known for giving trust as well mellowing to anyone that easily or making cute compliments, let alone blessings. But what young stallion just heard from a gruff stallion was filled with nothing but honesty and solemnness. “Thanks Logan. I really appreciate it.”

“We both accept your blessing, because we know that it is honest.” Twilight respectfully nodded her head, happily accepting Logans blessing.

“That is still quite not enough, Logan.” Peter however chuckled playfully and sharing a glance with his aunt. “Aunt May? Is he awake?”

“Awake and waiting in the dining room.” May merely node her head with a smile, like out of empathy knowing what was on her nephews mind. Peter then glanced upon to Twilight and giving her affirmative wink, as the princess winked at her husband back and in the moment disappearing in a flash of light.

“Whut was that all about?” Logan dully murmured, though deep down feeling that there are arguably more surprises that Parker had in store as the kid merely grinned and winking on his mutant friend.

And in the same moment and as fast she disappeared, Twilight reappeared back though standing up and holding a small foal in her hooves, which quite attracted Logans attention or even rather stunning him as an idea occurred in mutants mind.

“Logan. This is our son, Little Ben.” Twilight stated while holding the foal and proudly shoving it to Logan, which actually appeared to be an unicorn, having a light brown fur, innocent violet eyes, similar that of Twilight, yet a chocolate brown messy mane similar that of Peter, yet having a violet streak over it.

“Son?!” Logan murmured nearly incoherently with his raspy voice nearly wavering while he was duly staring on a tiny pony in Sparkles hooves. However, Ben who by the way was staring on Logan as well with his piercing big violet eyes though started squeaking and giggling happily and waving his small hooves forward, like he would be attempting to reach Logan. “Ya actually have two kids? Seriously?”

“Yup. He was just born recently.” Peter chuckled joyously, edging closer to his wife and carefully taking Ben into his hooves.

“And I am his big sister.” Mayday playfully stated, flipping he wings profusely and like a hummingbird lifting her frame from the wooden floor and gently yet energetically rubbing his little brothers mane, messing it even further.

“And we are Little Bens and Maydays auntie figures.” Pinkie joyously squeaked and hugging both Rarity and Rainbow over her necks, pulling her friends closer, as Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy chuckled in response, while Rainbow in the other hoof had quite an annoyed expression on her face over her hyperactive friends over-happy attitude. “All together. Hanging out with the kids one by one by the time or babysit.”

However, the more Logan was looking on Mayday and Ben, little cute foals having their entire life in front of them, suddenly the gruff stallions smile diminished as a rather brooding like expression took its place on his face as rather unpleasant memories of the past started floating through Logans mind like leaves in an autumn whirlwind.

“Logan?” Twilight, however realized her friends sudden change of demeanour. “What is the matter?” Young princess asked softly, wondering what might be on Logans mind.

“Um…Whut?...Erghm…Nothin'…” Logan grumbled incoherently as Twilight woke him up from if self-induced trance, returning him back into reality, as yet the gruff stallion averted his gaze from young alicorn, not wanting to push on the topic.

“Say, Logan….” Now Mayday though spoke off, addressing Logan with a tight curiosity present in her voice. “Daddy has also been telling me so much about those famous…..Adamantium claws of yours. They are your trademark weapons and actually making you that what you are, as well as having your entire skeleton coated with the same virtually indestructible substance. Would you…Like to show us, please?”

Being taken aback by fillys unusual request, yet also inwardly cursing Parker and his ever-going big mouth, Wolverine cautiously looked around the room to see curious gazes of otherpony standing around before glancing upon Parker and Sparkle, as the couple merely nod their head giving their approval, seeing no harm in it at all.

Though still feeling reluctant about this and not wanting to freak his newfound friends out too much, Wolverine looked at Mayday, her golden eyes gleaming with curiosity, judging that young filly might already know from Parker and wanting to disappoint her. Yet even without his super acute enhanced sense, Logan could feel that there was something different about these mares, something that made a grumpy mutant to compromise. Logan eventually sighed defeated, standing up and extending his front hooves forward.

“Alright then. Ladies. Ya better back off.” Logan gave the others casual warning before himself stepping a few steps back and letting his adamantium claws pierce the skin with a loud SNIKT! as deadly blades extended themselves from the X-Mens hooves, shinning in the light, though involuntarily frightening most of the mares, their eyes wide like saucers while some like Fluttershy squeaked out of fright as Rarity and Trixie gasped nearly out of breath. However and surprisingly, Little Ben, instead of get scared and start crying, the foal started giggling happily.

“GODNESS!” Rarity exhaled, finding her intakes of breath sorely lacking, with her voice wavering by the sight of Wolverines adamantium claws and placing her hoof on her chest, feeling her heart racing.

“Okay. Now ya seem them. Are we good?” Logan proceed in a somewhat irritated like manner, not being evidently pleased with his action.

“Wow! This is kinda cool.” Mayday, though also being bewildered, if not even scared a little bit couldn’t help but somehow admire and staring at deadly indestructible blades intensively.

“I have to say, dude…” Rainbow, who also seemed to share Maydays passion flipped her wings and rising into mid-air, keeping her frame airborne. “You look kinda great with those thingies on your hooves.”

“Great….And razor sharp too.” Felicia stated somewhat warning like way, prompting her tomboyish friend rather not to patronize for her own good.

Trixie however, who seemed to be rather amazed cautiously closed her gap between herself and the Logan, slowly rising her hoof and carefully touching one of the claws tip, only with a speed of a lightning retrieving he hoof back and lowly screaming painfully in a high-pitch, like she would actually be stung by a wasp. “Ooouch!”

“Told ya.” Felicia dully noted.

Yet in the instance, Logan retracted his claws back into his hooves yet they could be seen rectracting deeper into the mutants hooves under his skin, yet there were three punctured slightly bleeding wounds left after the claws. However, and much for mares awe, the wounds immediately started mending themselves as there was soon nothing left, like they would never been on Logans hooves to begin with. Wolverines trusty healing factor just did the trick.

“Okay…” Applejack, the farmpony who usually wasn’t that easily shaken murmured incoherently, yet trying to regain some of her confident composure. “That has just happened.”

Despite all the mares present within the Golden Oak being already well familiar with and also hearing so much about Wolverines ability to heal instantaneously from virtually any form of injury from Peter, watching it though on their own eyes was still rather more disturbing and quite challenging to handle it was a true.

“Um, Logan…” Trixie who already managed to recuperate herself from her awe a bit, just like the rest of her friend couldn’t help but ask her newfound mutant friend curiously, though there was still quite a hint of hesitation in fashionistas voice. “If Trixie may ask…Your…eghm….claws. Have they just actually came out and also going back into your…hooves?”

“Back inta my forearms actually, darlin'.” Logan explained with a somehow reluctant like tone. “Ya see, my claws are housed beneath the skin and muscle of my forearms, though being an equine now, so I would say cannon. I kin control and release them between the knuckles of my hooves at will when holding my hooves straight.”

“That though still quite doesn’t explain those injuries, partner.” Now Applejack proclaimed.

“That’s th' idea.” Logan indifferently and somehow dumbly explained. “As ya kin see, my hooves ain't have hole nor openings. My claws will just slice through my muscles and skin when poppin' out.”

“Um..…” Fluttershy meekly pointed on, yet though an undeniable hint of concern could be felt within shy Pegasus voice. “When they come out, does it hurt?”

“Yeah. Like hell. Everytime.” Logan simply and somewhat dully replied on Fluttershys question.

“Does it?” Rarity nearly gasped, not even wanting to imagine how it must have feel for someone dealing with a pain like that on daily basis.

“Trust me girls.” Peter though step between Logan and the girls and playfully punching the X-Mens shoulder. “Wolverine has always been a tough nut to cruck and just not being the type of guy to stop and whimper about how much it hurts when he is seconds away from kicking some butt. And besides, Logans trusty healing factor will always take care of those minor injuries, so he is just fine.”

“Hurm. I cant wait ta return th' compliment.” Logan snarled annoyed, yet somehow feeling a little uneasy about Parkers words, talking about the X-Mens healing factor like that like it was nothing.

“Say, Logan.” Pinkie though spoke off. “When does it hurt so much, well why do you keep extending them all the time?” Despite party ponys question sounded offhanded and rather blunt, yet it actually bore lots of sense and being a very good one.

“Its…Erhm….Complicated.” Logan however murmured somewhat hesitantly, feeling a little defensive about the question, knowing the explanation would be complicated and his new pony friends would find it hard to believe, yet the very same unnerving memories of the past that were previously plaguing X-Mens mind returned, though this time feeling much stronger.

“Girls, girls.” Twilight suddenly interjected yet without noticing interrupting Logans train of thoughts. “There will be lots of time to fill you in. But trust us, we all have had a very long and rough night and we all use a little rest and catching up.” Young princess declared, yet Logan however looked like grateful for Twilight intervening and therefore turning from the subject.

“You bet. I am starving to death.” Peter interjected and rubbing his belly once again grumbled from the inside and earning mixed reactions from his friends, while some chuckled humorously, the other like Twilight, Trixie and Logan sighed in exasperation instead. However, Peter didn’t let himself being embarrassed. “Hey. You also burn lots of calories when fighting evil forces you know. So, Aunt May. What is for lunch?”

“Today, we have a breaded cauliflower along with a mashed potatoes salad side dish with a home made dressing, as well as a roman salad with roasted croutons and sardine dressing.” Aunt May replied to her nephew with a warm smile, knowing it was his favourite in Equestria.

“So...” Logan, who turned into his more sarcastic side provocatively stated, earning everyponys attention. “There ain't any grass, oats or hay in th' feedbags?”

A dead silence occurred within the library as Logans blunt humorous question earned a couple of bewildered gazes of others standing around, not quite knowing what to think about it. Yet eventually most of them burst into a joyous laughter, taking it with a good humour.

“Oh, that’s a good one, partner. Ponies eating from the feedbags. What a laugh.” Applejack chuckled joyously, while trying to supress her laughter a little bit.

“Pchm! Everypony will know that you are an alien.” Trixie, who though on the other hoof managed to keep her emotions, stoic and reserved attitude intact, rolling her violet eyes yet not helping herself but smirking sarcastically.

“You got it right, auntie Trixie.” Mayday chuckeld while being able to hear a slight grumbling sounds that echoed from Logans stomach. “Logan is maybe not a dog, as daddy calls him at times, but his bell sure growls like one.”

“Excuse me?!” Logan murmured incoherently, unable to cope with the words that the filly just said. A sense of humour that could actually by matched or identical to that of Parkers. Which however, couldn’t be a big surprise, therefore being HIS daughter as Mayday actually inherited fathers trademark sense of humour.

“Good one.” Peter priced his daughter for quite a good wisecrack and playfully bumping his hoof with Maydays own. “You have sure showed him, kid.”

“Lovely.” Logan grumbled in exasperation yet with also a mix of sarcasm. “I think I am just gonna like it here.”

“You will? Oh, this is going to be so awesome.” Pinkie exhaled, squeaking aloud and joyously hugging her hooves over Wolverines neck, bringing a grumpy stallion into a warm embrace. Logan, however grunted with a low snarl, an exasperated look formed on his face as he gently yet energetically pushed a party pony away.

“Now, come on, everyone.” Aunt May though interrupted the whole drama and prompting everypony to follow the older mare into a dining room. “The lunch is going to get cold.”

“Come on…doggy.” Peter provocatively addressed Logan, prompting the X-Men to follow, of course earning a chuckle from Mayday, though an inward groan from both his wife and Trixie.

Logan merely huffed annoyed as he yet followed Parker, Sparkle ant the others into a dining room to have a good well-deserved meal.

“This definitely will be some life, alright.”
