Author's Note:

Hey everypony, sorry for the long delay, life has it out for me.

Are you alright Fanny?

Yea, Pinkie...just got a lot of crap going on at the moment no need to worry about me.

Awe, but I don't want to see you sad! I do get a question, how much longer still we are officially Ben's herd?

Well, we need to have you guys develop further feelings for him and I need to get him to begin falling for you. Sure you guys are blushing when he is near, but it doesn't prove anything as of yet.

Well..ok then. And by the way everypony, if you saw his blog he has finally decided on who should be part of the herd! so go check it out!

*chuckles* Thanks Pinks, so anyway, look forward to this next chapter as Ben and Rook explore more of Ponyville and we see the Royal Sisters and an old friend of Tennyson :)

Sweet Apple Acres

It didn't take Ben and Rook that long to find Sweet Apple Acres, all they had to do was to spot some apple trees, and they found them. As soon as they got there, they were greeted by a sight of many apple trees and a large red barn.

“Wow!” Ben exclaimed in awe.

“I agree!” Rook said. “Now I hate to say this, but this beats many of the farms on Revonnah.” He said as they continued to make their way to the farm.

BAM

They both heard some banging and went to go investigate. After a few minutes, they saw Applejack using her hind legs to kick an apple tree, getting some apples down, and putting them in two barrels. The sight made the two heroes raise eyebrows.

“What is she doing?” Rook asked.

“Don't know, but we better go see if she needs some help.” Ben said as he and Rook began to make their way towards her. “Hey, AJ!” Ben greeted me.

When Applejack saw them she smiled at them. “Howdy Ben, Rook. What are y’all doing here?” She asked.

“Well,” Rook said. “We just want to explore the town to get to know everypony a bit better. We just came from the Schoolhouse, where your sisters go.”

Applejack sighed. “Sorry about that. I told her that you two wanted some time before being hassled, but she is just so stubborn.” she chuckled. “Sometimes I think she takes more from me.”

Ben smiled. “No need, it was nice meeting the young fillies and colts there. So..what exactly are you doing?” He asked.

“Oh, I’m apple bucking.” she said. “It's when me and my big breather Big Mac buck down the apples and we inspect them and take them to the market for selling.” She said,

Ben and Rook Were both impressed. Kicking down apples? Sounded like hard work and fun as well. “Well, would you like some help?” Ben asked her. “I mean, we got nothing to do.” He said.

Applejack saw them and frowned a bit. “Are you sure? I mean if you wish to help then fine, but I don't want to burden the both of you.”

Rook smiled. “We want to make sure we have a good reputation in this world, and it starts by helping ponies and any other creatures around so we get to know them better.” He said.

Applejack saw the smiles on their faces and sighed a bit. “Well..if you're sure, then fine. But how are you going to- '' Then Ben smirked and raised his hoof, which showed the Omnitrix, and Applejack sighed. “Oh right, that face doohickey of yours.” She said, “Well you guys can start by bucking some apples over there if you’d like.” She pointed her hoof over at some nearby trees. “Big Mac went to take a break so you can use those barrels under there.

“Got it!” Rook said as he and Ben made their way to the trees.

“Oh and another thing.” applejack said. “There’s a certain spot on the trunk that you need to kick to get the apples out.” she said to them, making them both nod and head over to the trees.

When Ben and Rook got the trees, they knew what to do, Ben took one tree, and Rook took the other tree. Rook, with his martial arts training, kicked the tree and in an instant apple fell off the branches and landed into the barrels with ease, making him surprised. Ben had transformed into Four Arms and punched the tree, rather than kicked, and apples fell and landed in the barrels.

10 minutes later…

Rook and Four Arms were able to buck nearly all the trees that were needed. And the two were panting a bit, this was some pretty hard work indeed. How Applejack and Big Mac do this is beyond them.

"I do not remember this being so tiring, not even the farming on Revonnah is like this." Rook said as he wiped some sweat from his forehead.

Four Arms nodded. "I agree with you, partner." He said as the two then took a breath.

*DING DING DING*

"Ben, Rook!" Applejack called. "Come get some lunch!" She called them. Ben and Rook felt their stomachs rumble and thought the same thing…they needed some food. Four Arms then got the barrels and brought them over to the barn, and then transformed back.

Inside the farm was a dining room that had apple-related food on the table. Apple pie, Apple fritters, you name it. The sight of all that amazing food made Ben and Rook’s mouths water in delight.

“Oh my!” Rook said.

“I agree!” Ben said as the smell of it was going right through his nostrils. “I mean, I would love some chili fries...but I think I can live off Apple-related products for a month.”

“So, you like what you see, boys?” They both turned to see Applejack standing behind them with a smirk on her face, This made the two blush a bit out of embarrassment. “Well don't just stand there, we got to eat!” She said as she made her way to the table, and soon following was a red stallion with a red coat, white freckles, and a mane and tail that were both colored dirty orange. His hooves are shown to be light yellowish gray and he was wearing some sort of horse show around his neck and his cutie mark is a green sliced apple. This is bg McIntosh, commonly known as Big Mac, the older brother of Applejack and Applebloom.

Another pony was actually already sitting down at the table, she was a frail elderly pony with a lime green coat, and wearing an apple handkerchief around her neck. Her mane is shown to be light gray and tied in a bun as well as her tail. Her cutie mark is shown to be an Apple Pie. This is Granny Smith, the grandmother of Big Mac, Applejack, and Apple Bloom.

Granny Smith saw the two heroes and smiled. “Well, if it ain’t the young heroes from the other world!” She said with a smile. “Names Granny Smith, this here’s Big McIntosh.”

“Eeyup!” Big Mac said with a smile as they all began to sit down and prepare to eat, everything looked so good that it almost made Ben and Rook feel bad about eating it all up.

Applejack sliced two pieces of Apple Pie and handed them over to Ben and Rook. “Dig in, boys.” She said with a smile.

“Don’t mind if I do.” Ben said as he and Rook both took a piece of pie and placed it into their mouths and when they did, it seemed as if fireworks went off in their mouth. Their taste buds danced a bit. “This ... .this is the best thing I've ever eaten!” Ben exclaimed with winged eyes.

“It is so good!” Rook said as he happily ate another slice. Ben just savored the taste inside his mouth. Sure he had lots of apples in his life and some pie, but this? This was something else entirely.

Applejack smiled. “Well, you ain't gonna find ourselves any better apples than here in Equestria.” She said as they all began to dig in. “So what are y’all gonna do afterward?” she asked.

“Possibly explore a bit more.” Rook said to her as he then took a bite of his apple fritter. “We might go and visit Fluttershy as well, maybe see if there is something we can do to help her with something.” He said.

Granny Smith looked at them. “I hear you youngins’ have quite the life.” She said, 'Battling against interglacial threats?’ She asked, with the two nodding their heads. “By the way sonny, your name is Ben Tennyson, right?” She asked, Ben, nodding his head. “Do you know someone by the name of Max?”

Ben spit out his fritter in shock. “Y-yea, he is my grandfather….how do you know my grandpa?” He asked.

Granny Smith smiled. “Oh, I was but a young mare back then, I remember your grandfather and a few other of his Plumber buddies coming to this world to chase after some weird creature…can’t remember the name.” Granny Smith wondered. “But yea…he was cute as well.” She said,

Applejack and Big Mac looked at her with shock. “Granny, you never told us this.” AJ said.

Granny Smith shrugged her hooves. “You never asked.” She said as she turned her attention to Ben again. “What is he up to nowadays?” She asked.

Ben smiled. “Oh well at first he was retired, but then he got out of retirement and…well…it's a bit of a long story, but he is now the Magister of Earth.” He said with a prude smile.

Granny Smith smiled as well. “Good for him. If you ever go back, tell him I said hello.”

“I will,” Ben said as he then looked at the Big Mac. “So, Big Mac, right?”

“Eeyup.” He simply said. Ben was told by Applejack at the party that her brother didn't talk much…and Ben decided to have some fun with him.

“So, you like bucking apples?” Ben asked.

“Eeyup.”

“Is it a good workout?”

“Eeypup.”

Ben snickered. “And do you see yourself bucking apples for the rest of your life?”

“Eeyup.”

Ben laughed a bit. “Classing. I could do this all day.” He said as the others laughed a bit as well.

20 minutes later….

After that delicious meal, Ben and Rook were ready to go back out to explore. They did offer to help out Applejack some more with the bucking, but she politely declined, saying how they did enough.

“Hey Big Mac,” Ben said. “If you ever need help hauling stuff, I’m your guy.”

“Thank you, Ben.” He said with a smile.

Ben was shocked. “Oh, my god! He actually spoke more than one word!” He said dramatically. “The world must be coming to an end!” He said, making Rook, AJ, Big Mac, and Ben laugh a bit. “Ok, so Aj, I’ll see you later!”

“So long boys.” Applejack said as the two heroes then departed from the farm. As they left, Applejack couldn't stop but think about Ben selflessly helping her buck some apples. Once a time she would normally refuse and do it herself, but she has since come to accept help from her friends.

The very thought of Ben's smile… made her blush a bit. "Ben…what a guy." She thought as her blush stayed on her face.

Big Mac saw her face and chuckled to himself. "Looks like sis has herself a crush." He thought with a cheeky grin.


Fluttershy's Cottage

It didn't take Ben and Rook long to find Fluttershy's cottage, it being outside of Ponyville a little bit. They took to the cottage with interest, being in the woods and all that.

"What a nice house." Rook said.

"I agree," Ben said. "I wonder why she lives outside Ponyville though.." He did wonder why that would be…but whatever, who was he to judge?

As they got closer to the door. Ben couldn't help but remember the faces of each Mare he met so far, Twilight, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Derpy, and the others. Their kindness to him and Rook, and helping them out even though they're total strangers in a new land… made Ben feel nice.

He also couldn't help but blush at the image of them..he never felt like this since…since…Julie…Ben then quickly shook his head, not wanting to think of it now and come back to it later. But something else came to mind as well.

Granny Smith mentioned that Max and a few other plumbers came to this world before…why has Ben never even heard of that till just now? It just didn't make any sense. Did Max forget? Or did he not tell Ben for reasons unknown? Ben wanted to know and if he was to see his grandfather again…then he would know.

Now the two were at Fluttershy's door and he gave a knock on it. They heard some hoof beats from the otherwise. "Who is it?" Fluttershy's soft, sweet-spoken voice said.

"It's Ben and Rook." Ben said to her. Then the door opened to see Fluttershy looking at them both with a smile on her face.

"Ben, Rook." She said with a smile. "What are you doing here? If you don't mind me asking."

"We are exploring more of Ponyville," Rook said. "And we figured that we should come and visit, see if there is anything you might need help with."

Ben nodded. "If not, we can come back some-"

"No!" Fluttershy exclaimed. She then coughed and blushed out of embarrassment. "I-I mean, it's fine…I'm glad you both are here…would you like to come in?" Ben and Rook smiled and nodded and followed her inside.

The two were in awe at the sight of the inside of the treehouse, it looked like any normal living room, but it looked so neat and tidy, the perfect place to live if you needed a place to keep quiet.

“Fluttershy, this place is nice.” Ben said with a smile as he looked aorund.

“I agree,” Rook said. “This is the perfect place you need if you wish to have some quiet time.”

Fluttershy blushed a bit at their compliments. “T-thank you both.” She said with a small smile. “Please, make yourselves comfortable.” She said as she motioned for Ben and Rook to sit, and they did just that. “May I offer you both some tea?” She asked with a smile.

Ben shook his head. “No thanks, not much of a tea drinker.” He said, making Fluttershy shrink a bit.

“Oh, I-I’m sorry.” she timidly said, making Ben raise an eyebrow.

“Hey, no need to get nervous.” Ben said as he rubbed his head sheepishly. “Sorry, I must have been a bit too blunt..still pops up from time to time.” He said to her, “Would water be alright?”

Fluttershy smiled and nodded. “Mmhmm, be right back.” She said as he then went right to the kitchen area to get the water. After doing it she came back with three cups, one for each of them. “Here you go...I hope it’s alright.” She said,

“It will be fine, thank you.” Rook said with a smile as he took a sip of his water. “So, Fluttershy…Ben and I are wondering if there is something you might need help with?” He asked.

Fluttershy looked at them with surprise. “Me? I-I don't want to be a burden to-”

“You won’t be.” Ben said to her with a smile on his face. “Me and Rook are heroes, and we help people…well ponies…you get what I mean.”

Fluttershy gave a small giggle. “Well, I do need to feed some of my animals…” Her face blushed a bit. “Would you both be willing to help? If you want to of course. Ben and Rook nodded, and this made the timid Pegasus smile. “Thank you both so much!” She said as she then began to go get ready and for Ben and Rook to look at eachother.

“So, helping feed some animals, not too bad, right?” Ben asked.

Rook nodded. “If we are going to get into the graces of everypony here, then we need to do what we need to do.”

Ben sighed. "Yea, I know…and besides, how many animals could she possibly have?”

10 minutes later….

“Oh…My….God…” Ben and Rook both had their jaws dropped when they were in Fluttershy’s backyard, which was teaming with as many animals as you could possibly imagine! There was a rabbit, some raccoons, and…was that a bear? How did-what the?

"OK my friends, you'll be fed soon enough, I bought some new friends for help." Fluttershy said to them all as she looked over at Ben and Rook. "Come and meet my animals." She said with a smile. And departed being a bit nervous, the two heroes swallowed it up and went over.

Fluttershy smiled. "Everyone, this is Ben and Rook. They're new to Equestria, so please treat them well.” She said Ben looked at the animals, not wanting to be seen as scary he simply knelt down and gave a short wave.

"Hey…animals." He said sheepishly, and some. of the animals backed up from him, making him nervous. "Yea…I don't think they like me."

"No, no. They haven’t seen you before…so they are nervous, you just need some patience and time." Fluttershy said to him.

"Yea…I guess." Ben said as he looked around. "So, where's the food?" He asked. As Fluttershy pointed her hoof right over there to see some bags. "Cool, thanks." He said to her and went over to get the bags as well as Rook.

The two noticed that there were a lot of them, and they couldn't just let Fluttershy take them all, so Ben smiled and activated his Omnitrix and pressed on the dial, and was engulfed in green light.

Standing in his place was a small white, humanoid alien with a body resembling a robot, but not really. He is shown to have a square appendage that resembled an MP3 player on his back with a port on, which was decorated with a 10 symbol and there were what looked like cassette tapes on his lower legs. There were some sound holes on the backs of his hands and on the side of his mouth was green and his lips were black lines that looked like an amplifier. And he was shown wearing headphones that were attached to a backpack. This is Echo Echo, the Omnitirx’s sample of the Sonorosian species.

“Echo Echo!” He said as he then duplicated himself into many different other copies, five to be exact. “Alright, guys!” Echo Echo #1 (Main One) “Let's help Fluttershy bring food for her animals.” He said.

“Got it boss!” They all said in unison as they then went over to grab as many bags of food as they could, and Rook also helped them as well. They all brought bags of food over and opened them up to feed the creatures.

“Well,” Echo Echo #1 said as he wiped the sweat from his head. “That should do-YIPE '' but he was swooped on by a yellow blur, who held him in her hives.

“Ben, I’m sorry...but you are the most adorable creature I’ve ever seen!” she squeals as she hugged Echo Echo #1, making the other Echo Echoes laugh a bit, and even Rokk got a few laughs.

Echo Echo #1 struggled to break free of her grasp though. “Uh, Fluttershy.” He said. “I understand if you think I'm cute and I’m flattered, but could you please let me go?” He asked.

Fluttershy then snapped out of her animal-loving phase and looked at him sheepishly. "Right..sorry." she said as she put him down. And he pressed the dial and he turned back into Ben, with the other Echo Echo's vanishing in green light. Fluttershy smiled at him. "You and Rook didn't have to-"

"It is fine, we wanted to." Rook said to her with a smile.

"Anything to earn our place in this world," Ben said to her with a smile. Afterward, they helped her feed the animals. Well…Fluttershy did, because the animals were still a bit nervous around Ben and Rook, since they had never seen them before.

“Sorry about not feeding them, '' Ben said as he sheepishly rubbed his head with his hoof. “Is there anything we could possibly help you with, Flutters?” He asked.

The timid Pegasus actually developed a small blush when he called her that. "W-well...no, it's fine. R-really." She said, turning her head away.``

Ben looked at her and smiled. "Well, ok then." He said as the animals began to dig into the bags, with him watching. "I take it you love animals, huh?"

Fluttershy nodded. "Very much." She said to him with a smile

Ben looked at her and back at her animals and frowned. "Hopefully, Animo doesn't find his way in this world…" he thought with dread, if Dr. Animo found his way here…and if he were to see all these animals, there's no telling what he would do. And Fluttershy seems to care about her animal a lot….no…he won't let that happen...if Animo finds his way here…then Ben would stop him.

“Ben?” His thoughts were stopped by Fluttershy who looked at him with a concerned frown on her face. “Are you ok?” She asked him.

Ben looked at her and saw the innocence in her eyes, those eyes of turquoise..something about them made his face heat up a bit. “Uh, yea..I’m good.” Ben said as he coughed a bit into his hoof a bit nervously.

But Fluttershy wasn't so sure. “Are you sure?” She asked him. “And please don’t lie to me. I won't be mad if it's something, I promise.” She said to him,

Ben sighed. “Sorry, it's just…with your animal friends here…I worry about one of my enemies coming here.” He said to her, making her wonder, but at the same time nervous too. “His name is Dr. Animo…a mad scientist who does experiments on animals to use as an army.” He said.

Fluttershy gasped in shock. Why would any pony do such cruel, inhuman things to animals? The very thought made her shake with a mixture of sadness and anger. “How dare he?” she whispered in an angry tone.

Ben then placed his hooves on her shoulders, making her flinch a bit. “Fluttershy, I know we just met…but believe me. I will not let anything happen to you or your animals ... .and if Animo does find a way here, I will make sure he doesn’t lay one finger on your animal friends.” He said to her, “Right Rook?” He asked, with the Revonoghander nodding in agreement.

Fluttershy saw the determination in Ben’s voice, and it made her heart beat a bit fast as well as blush appearing on her face. “T-thank you Ben.” She said as she then quickly gave him a hug, a hug that he returned.

“Now,” He said as the hug ended. “Is there anything else we can help you with?” He asked.

Fluttershy shook her head. “No, you and Rook helped me more than enough.” she said with a smile. “And I don't want to keep you both from exploring more of Ponyville.” She said as she turned to the other animals.

Ben and Rook looked at each other and nodded. “Well, ok then.” Rook said. “But do not fear asking us for help if you need it.” He said.

“I won’t.” Fluttershy said as Ben and Rook then took their leave, with Fluttershy watching. As she watched them she had many thoughts in her head. “They are both so nice…I just hope whatever crisis in their world is resolved soon.” She smiled and thought of Rook. “Rook…I may not know much, but he is a very nice guy…that Rayona girl is very lucky to have him.” Then her mind went to Ben, and when he did think of him, her face started to blush. “Ben…what a nice, sweet guy…he helped me even though we didn't have to..I wonder if maybe…” Her face then turned as red as a tomato and mumbled something as her animals watched, many of them with smirks on their faces.


Ponyville

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash was cruising through the air, taking the wind into her face and smelling those clean clouds, until she spotted a familiar gray pegasus on the ground eating a sandwich and we flew down to greet her. “Sup, Derpy.” She said.

Depry turned her attention to Dash and smiled. “Oh, hi Rainbow Dash.” she said with a smile. “Would you like to sit with me for some lunch?” She asked.

But the blue pegasus shook her head. “Nah, I grabbed a bite to eat at Hay Burger.” She said as she then trotted over and sat with her. “So, how's the mail going today?”

Derpy smiled. “Oh, very great…especially after Ben helped me this morning.” She said as he took a bite of her sandwich.

Dash smirked. “Yeah, I hear that the green boy and his tal partner are already starting to get a reputation in town.” She then smiled and put her hooves to the back of her head. “They’re awesome, but nowhere near as awesome as me!”

Derpy laughed a bit. “I don't know Dashie.” Derpy said. “Ben is pretty great.” she said as her ace began to heat up again with a blush. “Especially after he helped deliver some of the mail for me today.

Dash looked at the disjointed-eyed mail mare and raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean?” she asked suspiciously.

Derpy smile. “Oh, Ben turned into one of his aliens, I think he called it…uh…” She then got confused. “XLR8? If I remember…but anyway, he turned into it and he delivered all the mail that was going to go to Canterlot, Manehattan, and other places…and he came back in 5 minutes.” she said with a smile, not noticing the cyan pegasus’s eye twitching a bit. “Oh, he is so nice and amazing. I wonder if-'' She then saw Rainbow Dash giving an annoyed glare and got concerned. “Rainbow Dash? Is something-

ZIP

Just like that, Rainbow Dash took off, flying to parts unknown, leaving Derpy behind with her mane looking razzled. She saw the pegasus take off and looked confused. “Was it something I said?”

Meanwhile, Ben was now speaking with Lyra Heartstrings and another mare. She is an Earth pony with a beige coat, a pigment mane and tail with a rose pink streak, a pair of cerulean eyes, and her cutie mark is three pieces of candy on her flank. This is Bon Bon, Lyra’s best friend. Rook felt a bit tired so he headed back to Twilight's Castle for some rest. The two mares wanted to know a bit more about Ben and his world..well mainly Lyra.

“Being a human sounds so fun.” Lyra said with a smile.

Ben smiled. “Well, it can be a bit hard, but I try to make due, you know.” He said as he shrugged his shoulders.

Bon Bon shook her head. “And to think that you had to deal with that horrible brute Vilgax ever since you were a small colt.” She said. “I hope he never finds his way here in Equestria.”

Ben then looked at them both firmly. “If he ever does come here. Then he is going to get his ass whooped.” He said, pounding his hooves together. “I did it many times before and I will do it again.” He said. Lyra and Bon Bon both smiled at him.

“Well, I have full faith in you.” Lyra said, and then her eyes turned to stars. “Now could you turn into one of your alien things? I want to feel those…those..what do you call your hooves?”

Ben raised an eyebrow. “You mean hands?” He asked, with Lyra nodding her head. Ben turned and raised an eyebrow to Bon Bon, who shrugged her shoulders. “Well I guess I can-”

“TENNYSON!” The three ponies all looked to see Rainbow Dash flying over right to them, and that made them a bit nervous. Why was she suddenly flying fast? Whatever the reason, she was going to crash right into them!

But thankfully, Rainbow skidded a bit before stopping and landing right in front of Ben, who was a bit confused and at the same time, a bit nervous. “Uh…hey Dash,” Ben said. “Is there something-”

“Is it true?” she asked, interrupting him. “Did you seriously turn into a fast alien to help Derpy earlier today?” She asked, with Ben nodding.

“Yea, I turned into XLR8 and delivered her mail, figured I could help her ease some-”

“You and me! Race!” She said to him, making him, and the two mares looked at her with confusion.

“Wait, what?” Ben asked.

Rainbow Dash pressed her muzzle into his, making him a bit spooked. “You heard me, hero boy! You and me, a race! We’ll see who the fastest thing in Equestria is!” She said to him.

Lyra and Bon Bon looked a bit nervous, but Ben? He lost his nervousness and it was replaced with a smirk. “So, you finally asked me for a race huh?” He asked, with Rainbow Dash nodding. “Good, in fact, when you told me about you being fast…I wanted to see if it was true.” Ben said as his smirk turned into a confident smile. “The only question is.” He then pressed his muzzle into hers, green eyes straight right into magenta eyes. “Do you think you can catch up, Skittles?”

This made Rainbow Dash smile bigger as she felt her ego go upwards. “Oh, I know I can, Green Bean!” She said, If one could look, a spark of lightning sparked between the two as they glared and grinned dangerously at each other, making Lyra and Bon Bon nervous a bit.

Ben still had his smirk. “Name the time and place.” He said.

Rainbow Dash grinned at him. “Tomorrow, Cloudsdale, sometime in the morning…because I need to report to Wonderbolt HQ afterward as well.” She said as she then turned to make her leave. “You better not chicken out.”

Ben snorted. “Skittles, I never turned down a challenge.” He said as Rainbow Dash then took off to parts unknown, leaving behind Ben and the other two mares, who looked at him nervously.

“Ben, are you sure?” Bon Bon asked him. “Rainbow Dash can be quite competitive.” She said,

Ben smiled at her. “I’m not nervous.” He said. “And even though I don't want to brag, I have some aliens in my Omnitrix that can possibly go even faster than her.” He then sighed. “She reminds me of myself when I was a bit younger.” He said to them, making them confused. “But anyway, now Lyra, you wanted to feel some hands right?” Lyra nodded her head with a smile.

Ben smiled and activated the Omnitrix, selected Four Arms, and was engulfed in green light. Four Arms stood in his place and he knelt down. “It might not be human hands, but they’re hands nonetheless.” He said as he held them out for Lyra to feel.

When she did, her smile winded. “Oh wow! These feel so nice.” She said as Bon Bon felt them as well.

Four Arms then smirked. “You want to know what else I can do with these?” He asked, with the two mares shaking their heads. “This.” He then very easily lifted the two right off the ground and held them very tight, this made them gasp a bit, and get a bit worried. But after a few minutes, they calmed down. “Sorry, I guess it was a bit unexpected wasn't it?” the Tetramand asked sheepishly.

Both mares nodded their heads as Four Arms apologized, and was about to put them down, but Lyra stopped him. “Wait, don’t let me go, please.” She said to him, “Please keep carrying me.” She pleaded, making Bon Bons and Four Arms to raise eyebrows a bit.

Bon Bon, even though she was a bit confused, she nodded in agreement. “Yea, keep carrying us, this feels actually quite nice.” She said with a smile, a smile that Lyra returned, and Four Arms sighed a bit.

“Well ok, but soon though, my watch has a time limit, so when you hear a buzzing noise, you need to get off alright?” He asked.

“Fine…” Lyra mumbled, with Bon Bon giggling a bit and for the Tetramand to chuckle.


Canterlot

Canterlot is the royal capital of Equestria and the former residence of Twilight and Spike. In the capital was the royal castle where the two princesses resided. One of them was a tall Alicorn with a white coat and wings and a horn on her forehead. She had a long lovely mane and tail with pink, purple, aqua blue, and green stripes with sparkles. She had light grayish-magenta eyes and wore a golden crown with a purple gem on it as well. And she had on a golden necklace with a purple gem on it as well, golden horseshoes and her cutie mark was a sun on her flank. This is Celestia, one of the princesses of Equestria.

The second princess is another Alicorn with a dark navy blue coat and wings with a horn on her forehead. Her mane and tail were also long but had a blue coloring with sparkles on them as well, she wore a dark necklace with a white crescent moon on it. She wore sparkly blue horseshoes, and she had a crescent moon tattoo on her flank. This is Princess Luna, the other princess who watches over many Pony's dreams.

Together these two are responsible for both raising the moon and sun and even though they are benevolent rulers. Due to them being sisters, they can still bicker with each other from time to time. But not today, as they had a visitor there for them, a human nonetheless.

The human is a male who looked no older than 40, had brown hair with some gray on the sides, and wore a white lab coat over a white shirt with a brown vest and a black tie, black pants, black shoes, and green goggles over his head. This was Professor Paradox, a dimensional traveler who serves as one of Ben's many allies.

“It’s been a long time since we last talked and seen each other, Paradox.” Celestia said with a smile as they were all drinking some tea.

“Indeed, Princess.” Paradox said as he drank some of his tea. “It feels good to be in this world again…still it is a bit weird as to why I am not transforming.” He said with confusion.

“It is rather odd.” Luna said. “But now, you are the one who brought the ones named Ben Tennyson and Rook Blonko here?” She asked.

Paradox nodded. “Yes, you see, two of Ben's enemies have stolen the remains of another enemy.” He put his cup down. “I have reason to believe that they are somewhere here in Equestria. That is why I have sent them here.” He said to them both. Celestia and Luna nodded and looked a bit worried. What type of enemies did this boy have?

“And what of these enemies you speak of?” Celestia asked him.

Paradox sighed. “I would tell you, but I feel like young Tennyson should explain better than me.” He said as he then heard a beep. “Darn, it's time for me to go.” He said as he then stood up and bowed respectfully. “Celestia, Luna, it has been an honor catching up again. I will try to reach out to you again at some point. Maybe in the next chapter.” He muttered that last part. "And Luna, I am happy to see you back in Equestria and that you had vanquished Nightmare Moon from you."

Celestia and Luna smiled. “Thank you, and I'm happy to be back as well.” Luna said as Paradox then vanished in a flash of light leaving the sisters to themselves. “Sister,” Luna said to Celestia with worry. “If what Paradox said is true, then we need more information as soon as possible. Who knows who these creatures are that are after this boy.”

“I understand, but we need to believe in Paradox.” Celestia said. “If this Ben really is that string, we need to know more.” She then got out a paper and quail and began to write in it. “I’m sending Twilight a letter, telling her to bring forth Ben Tennyson and Rook Blonko to Canterlot tomorrow. We have a lot to talk about…” she said as she then sent the letter.
