Twilight Gets a Puppy
Season 5

Made in Multicorfors
[Ponyville, a few weeks after Twilight invented new curse words as she had to recopy her notes back in black ink. End of Summer]
“Are you still grumbling?” Spike asked as he walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of gems.
“No” Twilight huffed.
“Yes.” Seshat corrected.
“Who's side are you on?” Twilight huffed.
“Side? I am on nobody's side, because nobody is on my side, little pony.” Seshat offered.
“Give it a rest.” Spike huffed. “They got sent to Manehatten, there's already a massive Guard presence there in case something goes wrong. Besides it's Rarity, Applejack, Sombra, and Rahs. It's like some weird double date or something.”
“There really is a problem though.” Seshat offered.
“Yeah and if those four can't deal with it the city just needs to be obliterated from orbit.” Spike muttered. ”At last you can sit here and be bored, I've got to comfort my moping filly friend that her sister can't make the Sister-hooves social this year because of this.”
“They have been every year since it started haven't they?” Twilight sighed. “Pity I can't convince 'Gleaming Shield' to come back for another year.”
“Given how he said Cadence and Chrysalis acted around his female form? Spike rolled his eyes, “I don't blame him.”
“Ummmm, Big Mac is at the door.” Seshat offered.
“Let him in.” Twilight smiled. ”I certainly could use the distraction.”
“Eww.” Spike grumbled.
“Hush you, there's nothing wrong with Mac.......” Twilight trailed off as the large red stallion trotted in.
Spike and Twilight both stared as the burly stallion shifted uncomfortably at the look.
“Why are you in a dress?” Seshat finally asked.
“And the beehive wig.” Spike commented.
“ And …. is that makeup?” Twilight asked.
“Eeyup.” Big Mac offered.
“Okay, I gotta hear what is going on here.” Spike stated.
“As do I.” Seshat stated.
“Why do I find this strangely hot?” Twilight offered.
“Alright now I DON'T want to hear it.” Spike grumbled.
“Ditto.” the tree agreed.
[ Manehatten]
“How many other shops are we going to get run off from in front of here?” Sombra growled.
" Twenty easy."
“Not that many. Ah say at least six, and we still ain't any closer to finding anything really wrong here cept every ponies running around like mad.” Applejack offered glancing over to Rahs and Sombra.
“Oh, try not to worry, Applejack. The map picked us for a reason. I'm sure it's nothing too dangerous as Twilight was not chosen as well. Although how we're supposed to uncover that reason, I haven't a clue. We can't possibly approach every single pony in town until we find out what we're meant to d—ooh!” Rarity stopped in front of a sign, looking it over before she started reading it out loud. "Please help us restore our long-lost but beloved tradition, the Midsummer Theater Revival...
There was a loud gasp.
“We just lost the Sparkle.” Sombra grumbled.
“....There's a guest performance by a local theater troupe, the Method Mares, as well as games, food, and much, much more. This event promises to bring our Bronclyn neighbors together and restore our sense of community, but there's so much to do and we need your help." Rarity continued ignoring the Moon Dog who was practically vibrating in place. “Huh. Darlings this is it! The contact on the flier is Coco Pommel!”
“Isn't that the mare you foisted the theater job off on?” Sombra asked getting a look from Rahs that was soon turned to Rarity as if demanding an explanation for why she would avoid a theater job.
“Well it's not like we have any other leads.” Applejack shrugged.
[Canterlot]
Princess Celestia and Princess Luna stared down over Canterlot from the balcony on the tallest spire, that was left, in the castle.
“This is ridiculous.” Celestia said as she stared out over the city. The reconstruction was going full tilt now that the mountain itself had been deemed safe. Celestia had called in a favor owed to her by Fjörgyn, the God of the mountains, abyssinians, and potato stew. The goddess was herself a mountain lion sort of abyssinian.
This caused a bit of panic when she showed up and a good deal of annoyance from Luna, as the abyssinian questioned if Rahs was still single after spotting his image in the repaired stained glass.
The feline did check over the mountain and shored up some potential problems and future sink holes to make sure that the damage done by Tirek could be repaired without any other issues coming from it.
The last thing Celestia wanted was to have the city fall off the mountain. It would probably fall off the mountain on a Friday and some how not hit the ground until Tuesday when it would land on Ponyville.
The abyssinian also warned that the Storm King was getting more active in his territory grabbing before she headed home.
“What is it this time?” Luna asked with a yawn, she had a hard time sleeping with all the construction going on into the day. Some how the jackhammers and noises managed to make it through her silencing spells.
“The same thing it has been, the prophecy. By the most optimistic predictions, we have seen all of them now.” Celestia offered. ”Madness, was obviously Discord....”
“I resemble that remark!”
“We know.” Luna dead panned ignoring the voice otherwise.
“Envy was Chrysalis, though she wanted Cadence and was jealous of Shining. Well , That's the best guess.” Celestia frowned.
“Fairly well.” Luna yawned.
“Lust was Sombra.”
“Which makes no sense, certainly he desired something, but to claim it as lust?” Luna offered.
“Well Lust could have been Chrysalis, and Sombra Envy, but they were out of order.” Celestia pointed out.
“It still makes more sense.” Luna huffed.
“Magic was either Twilight's ascension or Sunset's return.” Celestia offered.
“We believe the former.”
“Greed was obviously Tirek.”
“Truer words unspoken.”
“And with Greed confirmed that means all the others are passed save Pride, and everything we have found out about Starlight Glimmer fits Pride rather well.”
“And the Fiery, Purple, Blue center indicates Spike, Twilight, and Rahs who were in the middle of all of it.” Luna finished.
“Indeed. And therein lies the problem.” Celestia sighed.
“We are not seeing the problem if we have it figured out.” Luna added.
“Luna, have you ever known Velkorn, not to show up and gloat about how her prophecies are fulfilled after they are over?” Celestia asked.
Luna considered then blinked a little before growling. ”This is ridiculous.”
“It is. Either Starlight is not Pride, or she's not done yet, which means she got out of the caves and some how evaded the entire Guard we sent to find her somehow. “Celestia pointed out tapping her hoof against the marble railing of the balcony. ' The fact Spike wasn't involved in that encounter leads me to think this is the case and we are not done with her.”
“We find that very surprising as according to Snow Drops CEO, the mine was abandoned as it quickly filled with horrendous monsters and it was no longer safe to go any where near.” Luna considered. “If she survived that she is far stronger than we thought.”
“It gets worse.” Celestia frowned.
“It does?”
“The reason all the monsters are in the mine is Martle put them there.” Celestia offered. “Many of them are the sapient sort.”
“Martle? Why would he fill a mine shaft with monsters. We thought he agreed to keep most of his more dangerous subjects away from pony lands. The mine was abandoned because monsters were in there, so he must have filled it while they were still digging.”
“Well I asked him.” Celestia stated.
“And we feel we will not like what he said.” Luna frowned.
“On that you are correct sister. The reason Martle directed so many monsters into those particular mines, is because White asked him to.”
Luna stared at her sister a moment before cursing and turning around to storm off the balcony.
“Buck this, we are going to bed.”
Oki soooo if white is saying this has to be done even though you promised others not to it’s a automatic it’s happening deal with it and try to catch me from the bunny god
Hmmm a vibrating cat dog.
White is involved... Because of course! It does involve time travel after all.
I do like the brief cutaways to the others for non Twilight focused episodes.
Are you going to do the movie? Curious how Tempest would fair vs the Sparkle siblings.
wait, White is pre-emptively seeking revenge on Starlight's time travel shenanigans?
10701844
more along the lines of both White, Velkorn, and the Fates are gods that everyone listens to because what they say will mean something, or in White's case, will, has, or is happening.
10701848
Given it's already hinted at in the stories synopsis? It will happen this season.
10701864
I’m just gonna laugh on the fact starlight wouldn’t be able to do her time shenanigans without whites permission meaning when it happens I’m hoping twilight curses white out for it
It sounds like velkorn is the goddess of "lets go ask white"
10701860
Considering the insanity of knowing everything timewise? You bet your sweet aunt bippy he is!
He's not wrong
So, should I count Seshat as the newest member of the Sparkle family?
Of course she did
Sounds legit
Someone should probably deal with that
She might be more careful about it this time, since the Sparkles are gonna be on her the moment they see her
I feel that this is a reasonable reaction
Starlight is not Pride.. Pride's freaking Storm King
10701864
I missed that myself... But thank you for clarifying!
Bowel is that like a gem filled stomach like haggis but without the meat? LOL just kidding sorry it was a funny typo
10701959
Well.... Scottish Dragons are Popular
That is what we call a big moond
10701860
Looks that way.
Luna's the sanest one of the bunch.
10701974
Careful, your age is showing!
As is mine
10702021
No... No she is not Not by a long shot. the sanest ones of the bunch Are Zecora who won't go near town, and the Flower Trio who nope out of the way first chance they get.
10701847
Surprised AJ didn't climb on him for a... uh... 'ride'
My question: are "Mountain Lions" anything like Timber Wolves?
10702088
Interestingly enough....
Either the Storm King or Starlight could fit pride, but given current events im more willing to guess its more likely the latter than the former
Next episode, Rahs in Address?
Of course Canterlot wouldnt hit Ponyville till Tuesday if it dropped on a Friday, before a Bank Holiday. All the goverment offices are closed, including the ones that enforce the law, like Gravity?
Luna needs to take a note of Disaster Area band, and go sleep in a quieter castle. Her old place.
You missed a chance for "I have the weirdest wing-boner right now"
10701848
Tempest would, if given the choice, turn everything around and avoid the entire country as it's far more trouble than it could possibly be worth. But since she's not in charge and her boss, the Storm King, says to capture all four princesses... I guess it's Plan A and hope for the best?
Yah, that won't end well for Tempest or the King's goons. Unlike the movie, Chrysalis would be murderously "annoyed" someone took her Cadance away for a paperweight. Sombra might be perturbed if it ever affects his daily routine at Ponyville. Then you have a few small armies that'll do anything Rahs asks for (or doesn't and just assumes it'll curry favor)...
10702048
Well, fair. Have to give you that
Is she the sanest of the ones in this chapter though?
crap this is going to be interesting.
Infallible tree logic.
Twilight's Cutie Mark starts tingling in 3... 2...
And Twilight just discovered a new fetish... poor Big Mac.
And poor Seshat, hopefully she can selectively turn off her awareness of certain rooms.
Oh right.... yeah that fully explains Rahs going along, didn't even think of that one.
Potato Stew? Really? Not even going to try and branch out to 'stew' or 'potatoes' in general?
How long till Rahs picks up 'Harems' for his portfolio?
.... You know.... I can't say she's wrong about any of that.
Yeah.... his ass his going to be smacked down SOOOOOO hard. He was only ever a threat because of Tempest, and as badass as she is.... this is Twilight Tuesday Sparkle she's dealing with this time.
It'll be fun, but not the best smack down of the invasion I've seen. That one involves Tempest invading only to be met by a Kaiju and getting knocked out just through the force of his roar.
I'm with Luna on this one, Lust makes no sense for Sombra.
Well, makes it easy to know when things are done at least. Though given the seasons left..... Second prophecy coming after that?
Hello temporal headache! So, White is having been set this up in a little while from now. Want to make sure Starlight does what she'd already done, or pissy about it and trying to punish her for what she is currently doing?
Fun little chapter... yeah with Drama Dog around that theater event is set, not sure why Sombra, and the rest, nice set up for the future.
Isn't White the Time God?
10701928
You know, that might be right. Given the context of this series, the Storm King possesses, or will posses, a weapon that can drain the power of GODS (probably made by Solomon or Starswirl), and unlike Tirek he gets to keep all their powers at once... Plus his whole merchandising thing does sound prideful, doesn't it?
10702511
Potato Stew is a nod towards the fic Airship Mauled.
Sombra is there because it was funny to me to have him griping about just getting a cutie mark only for a tree to make his butt vibrate.
10702534
Yes
10702189
An office that enforces the laws of physics?
Someone make a fic of this NOW!!!
10702673
I disagree. The Storm King is arrogant and greedy, but that isn't all that Pride is, and he's probably self-aware enough to admit, at least to himself if no one else, that he's kind of a jackass.
Starlight is (somehow) convinced of her own righteousness, and is so stubborn that she not only would rather break time and endanger all life on the planet than admit she's wrong, but very nearly manages to do just that while going through Twilight Bucking Sparkle.
Und Ich hast finaly caught up with TGaP. No plot lines of note that aren’t old.
10702534
Ja.
10701848
Tempest would fair very, very poorly.
10704305
Or she'd be even more prepared because she would be checking on Equestria for the storm king to find any weaknesses.
“And the Fiery, Purple, Blue center indicates Spike, Twilight, and Rahs who were in the middle of all of it.” Luna finished.
Probably a long shot but could "fiery, purple and blue be the sirens?"
Did White try to kill of Starlight Glimmer? Aid her?
10883169
... wait ...
White... I can't make sense of him... at all.
Lol
Was that a lord of the rings quote?
I wonder if White really follows the Timeline or if he just copy the player of the game Undertale. Replay the game until the prefered ending is met. Not being the only one to remember all resets...
maybe cause you have a moon dog god brother that everyone says is hot in drag and now you are seeing it on someone you like and now are agreeing with it being hot your self (not exactly sure if i got it right but that is the connection I'm drawing go wild with the idea for your self if you don't agree and see where you draw the line)
I'm not one to usually one to point out grammar/spelling mistakes but this one seems a bit too personal to not mention
The party isn't over until the Zebra dances at the party...
But will she remembered to pay her debt to Celestia and Granny Smith?
