Get away from me!

Ember was coming over to Ponyville after receiving an invitation from Spike who, after triple-checking his list, was assured that he had not mixed up his schedules. The little dragon was making sure that Ember's arrival at the castle would be much better than last time. That being said, when Ember arrived at Ponyville from the air, she punched the ground upon landing, much like a comic book character.

"Huh. No welcoming committee this time." She grabbed her chin in thought. "As a dragon, I wasn't really fond of that welcome, but somehow I still find myself disappointed." She shrugged. "Might as well just pass on to the castle. I wonder what he wants to talk about this time," she wondered aloud.

Arriving at the castle, she knocked on the door and noticed no one was home. Not one to forego the 'classics', the dragoness tried to push the door open, but it was locked.

"Ooookayyyy? He's not home..." Ember looked around, seeing many ponies going about their day and heaved a loud sigh. "I guess I have to ask them where Spike is." She raised an eyebrow. "Flying around could be better, though."

She took to the partially clouded skies to try and spot Spike in the small village, but he was nowhere to be seen. After making a few spins, Ember was starting to get annoyed. She forced a smile and went towards a pegasus setting up clouds.

"Hey," she started. "Have you seen Spike?"

"Hm?" The pony's bland expression changed to bright delight. He grabbed her claw and shook it enthusiastically. "I can't believe Dragon Lord Ember is here!"

Ember was confused. "Is this another ponyism?" she asked.

"What? No! I want you to be my waifu!"

Ember narrowed her eyes and crushed the pony's hoof, creating an audible crack. She followed up by throwing the pegasus through several clouds. She shook her head and tried going to another pony to seek their aid, but he saw the dragoness first.

"Emberrrrrrrrr!" he shouted joyfully.

The pony, rushing to Ember for a big hug and kiss, caught an elbow to the head and was jettisoned downwards into a house.

"What a bunch of weirdoes!" Ember shouted. "Maybe it's just the flying ones."

The dragoness' trip to the ground saw her landing in front of the house where she launched the pony, and it didn't take long for an earth pony to burst through the door and rush to the blue dragon. Once again, Ember found her claws being grabbed, but this time, the stallion started to kiss it, spreading his spit on them. Ember punched his face in, leaving the pony standing with a caved-in face.

"What is WRONG with these ponies?!" Ember exclaimed.

"Ember!" a unicorn cried out this time. The pony slid to her feet. "Please, Ember! You are my waifu! I want to spend all my days with you!"

"Ew! Get away from me!" she yelled.

The unicorn was not dissuaded and only blushed. "You're so cute when you get angry."

Ember's eyes twitched angrily, and she grabbed the pony by the fur on his neck to punch him in the face.

"So cute..." the pony strained. He was punched again. "So...cute..."

Ember punched the stallion's face multiple times in quick succession.

"WHY. WON'T. YOU. SHUT. UP!"

"C...Cuuuuuute..."

He was left a very swollen, very happen pony who would make his dentist just as happy. The dragoness was approached by yet another pony carrying a white wedding dress just for her.

"Look, Ember, my Waifu!" Ember said nothing in response to this pony. She only stood, staring, an air of contempt on her face. "I got you the most BEAUTIFUL dress, because I know that, secretly, you are a very gentle and fragile creature who only wants somepony to love you. I am that po--"

The stallion was engulfed in ping flames, and the dress fluttered away in the winds as black dust. The fire left the pony as a nice, crispy black accentuated by the ash he coughed out.

"I'll...never clean myself...again," he strained.

Ember flinched and stepped away, horrified by the statement.

"What?! What's wrong with you all?!" she shouted. A loud shouting of 'My Waifu!' struck Ember's ears like a deafening screech. "I need to get out of here!" She turned tail and dashed through the streets. "Crazy ponies!"

She rounded a corner and hid in the dark next to some trash cans and discarded cardboard boxes, letting the swarm of weirdos run into another street. She wiped her forehead, thinking herself safe, but she didn't notice the pony who painted himself black with soot to sneak up on her. Very loud and obnoxious breathing caught the dragoness' attention, and she looked around, trying to figure out where it was coming from. Two eyes, the white of their scelera contrasting with the dark of the shadows.

"Waifuuuu..." he hissed.

Ember jumped away and hit the opposing building. "What the?"

"You're the more silent and retracted kind of dragoness. I can help you stay away from those weirdos, but you have to trust me." His teeth showed themselves when he smiled. "I'm sure you'd like me if you got to know me fi--"

The pony found his head on the other side of the brick wall he was glued against, his hoof still raised. Ember left the stallion behind without listening to his words.

"...rst..." he groaned.

"I gotta get away from these freaks!" Ember shouted while she ran.

Her sprint gradually slowed to a run, then a jog, then a fast walk, and then stationary. "...I can fly. Why am I running on the floor?" she scolded herself.

With her wings spread out, the dragoness took to the skies and set for the dragon lands, but she forgot one important thing: Pegasi.

She had to swerve and dodge all the would-be 'suitors' to her, and had to burn some out of the sky. Some of them went down in smoke, catching others in their spiral and exploding on the way. Ember scratched her head at such displays and shrugged it off.

"Flying ponies are built weird," she thought herself.

She found herself glomphed by a rather small pegasi who couldn't help kiss her on the cheek whilst hugging her.

"I love you, Ember (des)," he stated simply.

Ember pulled the pony off her back and held him by the scruff of his neck. "Listen closely, you disgusting creature."

The dragon emperor roared directly in the small stallion's face, ruffling his fur and leaving him dazzled. He blinked several times before recovering, and he smiled rather 'affectionately' at the dragoness who felt her stomach churn.

"How tsundere of you," the pony teased.

Ember stuck her tongue out in audible disgust and threw the pony at a group of others, pushing them all into a cloud. Which then exploded. The blue dragoness dived into Ponyville to avoid the stalkers and managed to get several to crash into the buildings around, and then exploded. She didn't much care about their well-being and found the scene hilarious, but the influx of pegasi was too much to dodge easily.

"I need to run along the ground and leave the other way," she said to herself.

Ember gradually slowed down and skid along the road, but she was going so fast that she still slammed into a pony holding a large white object. The object cushioned her impact, and when she came to, she saw that her figure had been drawn onto it. The drawn her was angry, but blushing at the same time.

"Oh! It's Ember! My waifu-des! You've come! Finally!"

The dragoness grabbed the pillow and pointed to it, her face clearly seething with rage, but her voice having a quiet hush to it.

"What is this?" she asked.

"My body pillow. Could you sign it?" He started daydreaming, his eyes sparkling with joy. "And then I can hide it for the future, when our children are all grown up on that sunny hillside we'll live together on!"

Ember's face collapsed, and no emotions were portrayed, but perhaps that was because nothing on the physical plane could allow such a thing to exist in this reality. A few minutes later and several of the other ponies fighting each other to get to Ember screeched to a halt in the road. They all cringed at the sight. The pony with the body pillow was sitting in the street, nigh immobile. He had the entire pillow shoved into his mouth, with only a small bit of the end sticking out of his mouth.

"Um...w-where did Ember go?" one of the stallions asked to the best of his ability. He had trouble not vomiting.

The pony pointed to his left.

"Th-thank you..." The stallion turned to face the others and yelled at them. "Ember went this way! We can start punching each other again for her affection!"

The stuffed pony watched them gallop away whilst exchanging hits. The stuffed pony mumbled and waggled his forelegs for help but just sighed in defeat. He wobbled a bit, then took a step forward, and exploded. The ponies all skid to a halt when they saw Twilight and Spike walking back into town. They both stared at the group with open jaws, and Spike dropped the bags he had been carrying.

"Oh no!" he shouted. "The waifu hunters!"

"They got out!" Twilight created a magical whip and cracked it at the ponies. "Back! Get back to your dark pits! Back to your creepy rubber models and strange pillows!"

The stallions hissed at her and started swiping like cats, but another crack of the whip saw many of them scamper around and into tiny cracks in the walls and floors of many buildings. Spike looked around and scratched his head in confusion.

"Why'd they come out?" he wondered aloud.

Twilight shrugged in respobse. "Hey...wasn't Ember supposed to come today?"

"Yes..." Spike's eyes gradually widened as the realization hit him. "OH NO!"

"I'm not a waifu!"

"Did you hear something?" Twilight asked.

"Not sure, but I hope that Ember isn't too upset I wasn't there...or that these creeps snuck out."

I laugh at this it's so funny!!!!! Best comedy I have ever seen in this place. I'll have to say at least 9/10

Some things are worded awkwardly If you don't mind I have a few suggestion

1."Spike decided to call Ember over this time, making sure the time schedules between the dragoness and changeling king were separate this time. After triple-checking with Twilight, the little dragon confirmed the separation and went ahead with sending an invite to his friend. The welcome this time wasn't as splendid, though, so Spike was busy with making Ember's welcome at the castle warmer."

This is your first paragraph in a short story, yet the first sentence start with Spike decided. Using this phrase sounds like it a build up from another chapter or paragraph. It feels like there should be more before this. I'd suggest adding another paragraph before this one telling of what spike was doing before he decided to call ember, or just say Spike was -blank- or because of the events of so and so spike decided to call ember. The fist half of the first sentence can be combine with the second sentence to make it sound smother. "It was confirmed that the Dragoness and the changeling king had separate schedules after triple checking with twilight, so the little dragon sent an invite to his friend. Also I don't think it makes sense to have the two conjectures, though and so next to each other. You could write this sentence as "The welcome this time wasn't as splendid, though spike was doing his best at making Ember's visit at the castle warmer."
or "The welcoming this wasn't as splendid so spike was busy making Embers stay at the castle warmer" I do suggest changing the word welcoming to another word as you have already used welcome already.

I hope you like the advice just so you know, with all glee in me, wrapped up into a tiny bow, I do hope you grow. Respectively the the knave of cheese, Oddity~

Is it better this way?

Very much so. " That being said, when Ember arrived at Ponyville, punching the ground like a comic book character, she noticed a few ponies running away from her instead of welcoming her like last time."

This sentence needs a bit more working though. Is she punching the ground because shes frustrated or bored. Is it just a habit she does like when people kick rocks? Did you compare her with a comic book character because she's punching the ground with great force, or is she being silly, or climatic while punching the ground. Also in the particularly episode your writing about about they did both ran away from her and welcomed her so it's best to describe the time in the episode for this comparison , for example. "She noticed a few ponies running away from her, unlike when she first arrived." You don't even need to add this part, you could just make the sentence simple and say "She noticed some ponies avoiding her." Your doing great you just need to add more context to your smiles.

Your getting better

"That being said, when Ember arrived at Ponyville from the air, she punched the ground upon landing, much like a comic book character"

I know what your going for in this sentence but a good way to convey the idea in a better mental image for your readers is to elaborate how that image connects to a comic book character and what they are known for doing. In this sentence it implies that comic book heroes usually punch the ground with no purpose though I think what your going for here is the style. Is she doing a flashing entrance akin to super man where she flies and then quickly lands to the ground, with fist touching the floor as he dramatically rises up? Or are describing the impact on the ground she made after she land, which was like it was done by a comic book hero with great power.

You almost have it, just keep in mind how the scene in your head plays out when she does land and describe like you watching a movie in your head.

Cheering onward for the gallivant taste of you inevitable victory, in spirit ~Oddity~

I'm referencing her entrance in the episode related to this, which referenced Iron Man.

O-only nine?! That's like only getting an A instead of an A+. My life is ruined.

A moment of your time?

Funny.
What do you think of Diamond Tiara and Spike?

If you're asking me to write a shipping story that's not gonna happen. I don't like shipping nor romance (Which is a bit hypocritical seeing as I made two with that tag).

That was soooo hilariously terrible...I LOVED IT!! <3 <3 <3

Another short story by the ever magnificent herald of Illogic himself. Lets see what you got for me this time 'round.

 Spike who, after triple-checking his list, was assured that he had not mixed up his schedules.

Wow, Twilight is really rubbing off on Spike. Or is it perhaps that his little waifu is coming to town that's got him all hot an bothered? We await with a baited breath to find the answer to these riveting questions.

 "I can't believe Dragon Lord Ember is here!"

No relation to Fire Lord Ozai though. Or Rat Lord Crimey down the street (but we usually don't speak of him anyways).

"Is this another ponyism?"

i believe the politically correct term this week is "equineism" but check back next week for further development on that.

The pony, rushing to Ember for a big hug and kiss, caught an elbow to the head and was jettisoned downwards into a house.

Damn Ember does not fuck around. First she cracked somepony's hoof and now she is elbowing another. I would advise her to take a chill pill, but I assume that would only get me a claw to the face at this point.

"Maybe it's just the flying ones."

That's pegassist. Or is it pegasist? Pegasister... I don't know.

He was left a very swollen, very happen pony who would make his dentist just as happy.

See Ember's happy he shut up finally, he's happy because he got hit by his waifu (apparently this guy is into the rough stuff) and the dentist will be the happiest of all., Heck maybe he ends up employing Ember. Hmmm, "the adventures of Ember the tempered and Dr. Tootache. She'll break 'em and he'll try and fix 'em, I suppose (he's not very good at his job)"

The dragoness was approached by yet another pony carrying a white wedding dress just for her.

Question: how did he get her exact size? On second thought I don't wanna know.

"I'll...never clean myself...again," he strained.

I don't think you were planinng to. I can smell the dorito dust from here coming off you.

She wiped her forehead, thinking herself safe, but she didn't notice the pony who painted himself black with soot to sneak up on her.

you're the more silent and retracted kind of dragoness. I can help you stay away from those weirdos, but you have to trust me.

Well if you can't trust random strangers in an alleway then who can you trust really?

The pony found his head on the other side of the brick wall he was glued against, his hoof still raised. 

Dang nabbit it didin't work. Next time he should offer her a ride and some gifts. Perhaps a van filled with free candy would do the trick.

"...I can fly. Why am I running on the floor?" she scolded herself

Well at least in the air should be saf--

he forgot one important thing: Pegasi.

Oh.

"How tsundere of you," the pony teased.

Okay. We need to talk. Who's the wise guy that gave these idiots anime? More specifically who taught pegasi the Love Hina way of expressing love?

Was it you Jim?

"Oh! It's Ember! My waifu-des! You've come! Finally!"

Damn weaboo trash. Don't you bleed maggot?!

Ember's face collapsed, and no emotions were portrayed, but perhaps that was because nothing on the physical plane could allow such a thing to exist in this reality. 

Well it's a good thing this is only so outlandish and fictious. i mean no person on Earth could actually have that in reality. Lemme look it up.

*10 minutes of bodypillow search later*

Humanity needs to die.

We can start punching each other again for her affection!

True Love Hina way of showing affection.

All in all this was hilarious. Combining the tsundere love of anime, which I never understood (maybe it's like softcore BDSM perhaps?), with one of the most brutal and enjoyable characters in the MLP universe was a strike of pure genius. I still have to find Jm and making him pay for giving ponies Love Hina, but that's my crusade alone. Great job. Now if you'll excuse me *cocks shotgun* I'm off to find Jimbo.

I can't stop laughing 13/10.

This is Dragon Lord Ember... Not having her staff with her?

Is this lesson Zero -ish...?

Sounds like a Luna dream prank. Or more of a Discord prank assisting Luna?

Why cute? She is absolutely adorable :yay:

Entertaining random ... something?
