> Spike The Dragon Welcome to Gaia > by Claws And Hooves > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Decision > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Oh great, another college rejected me because they thought I used a fake name. It all started with that guy not wanting to take me in as a roommate because I'm magic-blooded. This is turning out to be the best day ever! Fuck my life, just fuck it!” A purple man with green eyes and hair monologued to himself as he walked through a park, reading the offending letter. He ignored the looks the normal non-pastel people were giving him. At this point, he was all too used to it to care. After all, he is eighteen now and has been like this all of his life. "Why can't anything ever work out in my life for once," Spike said as he sat down on a bench and thought of his life. How he was abandoned as a newborn because he was one of the children born with magical abilities thanks to the rift that opened between Earth and the world of Gaia. Then how someone at the orphanage thought it was funny to make his full name, Spike The Dragon, because he had naturally spiky hair and was wearing a diaper with a cartoon dragon on it. Something that seemed oddly appropriate when he learned later in life that his type of magic-blooded was known as dragon-blooded, as he had powers similar to the race of dragons from Gaia. Which is how he was never adopted, because despite the nations of Earth making peace with the nations of Gaia, people still look down on those with magic-blooded as freaky. How despite working hard all his life to get marketable skills and having magical abilities. He could only get some lousy part-time job that paid him less than anyone else, because no one else was willing to hire him. How despite having excellent grades, no college or even trade schools were willing to take him because they all thought he was using a fake name. Also how now that he was out of high school he was on a deadline to get out of the orphanage. A deadline that was almost up and still he couldn't find a place to live. "At least I can spend today with Twilight, that always cheers me up," he remarked while thinking about his only close friend. A type of pony called an alicorn, one who came to Earth to help teach humans about Gaia, and to learn about humans. He met the little older than him alicorn at his school. As she came as part of a lecture tour, being the only magic-blooded person in school, she talked to him quite a bit and the two became fast friends. In fact, whenever she was on Earth, she would always spend time with him no matter what. Even having him help her with her lectures, but as he thought of his friend, he soon became sad again. For soon she would go back to Equestria on Gaia, and with the way things were looking he didn't know if he would ever see her again. Suddenly, to the surprise of those nearby, in a flash of green fire Spike grew reptile wings and a fin on his head. This didn't surprise Spike, as this was the magical transformation that all his kind can do. Either at will or in cases like this as a reflex to certain things, like powerful magic. "Looks like Twilight is here." He looks around and sees the alicorn in question, like all ponies she was shorter than a normal human and had these odd hoof-like hands, as well as hooves for feet. "So Twilight what do you feel like doing today? Because I feel like almost anything." Twilight gave him a nervous smile before she reached for some papers in her purse. "Actually Spike, I want to tell you something about Equestria. Things I bet you don't know, for example, did you know we have a universal basic income? It isn't much, but at least with it, you won't have to worry about food or housing. Speaking of housing, we also have very affordable homes thanks to government programs. Free higher learning in the forms of college, trade school, and even apprenticeships. We also have universal healthcare that covers mental health too." "That nice to know Twilight, but why are telling me this. Also why do you look so nervous?" Spike asked. "I… I want you to come back to Equestria with me," Twilight said. "You want me to visit Equestria?" Spike asked. "No, Spike I want you to come home with me," Twilight said. "Oh but why I-" "Spike, I know that the orphanage is kicking you out and I know that you don't have a place to stay. Look I'm sorry, I know you told me not to worry over you like this, but when I heard about this. I knew I had to do something. I know Equestria isn't perfect and I know you will face discrimination there for being a non-pony and a stallion. But you will still have better chance at life there than here." "...So you heard about it huh? Look, Twilight, Equestria does sound great and all but how would I get there? Also where would I stay?" Spike asked. "You can stay with me for as long as you want,” Twilight said. "But I have no idea how long that would be and I don't want to be a burden to you." "Spike you will never be a burden to me,” Twilight said softly. “Because Spike I-I love you,” she said nervously, much to his surprise. “I care for you much more than just a friend," Twilight said as her face started to grow red. Spike for a moment didn't know what to say, but he knew what he felt. Deep down he knew he felt the same for a long time. Though he always told himself, someone like her could never fall for a nobody like him. "I love you too Twilight, you know that there is nothing for me here but if you are in Equestria I know there is something for me there." "Spike!" Twilight exclaimed in joy while pulling him into a deep hug. "I know you will be so happy there, and with me." "With you, I don't think I could be anything else but happy. So what do I need to do?" Spike asked. "All You have to do is fill out these immigration forms, pack up your bags, and tomorrow we will head home. I'll take care of everything else," She stated matter of factly. “Huh, Guess this means I will finally get to meet these friends of yours you have told me so much about. Think they will like me?” "Spike, I know they will just love you." If Spike knew more about Equestrian culture, then he probably would have known Twilight wasn't talking about in just a platonic way. > The Departure > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a flash of purple light Spike and Twilight, as well as their bags, find themselves on a platform out at sea. The only place where one could get to travel from Earth to Gaia thanks to the Rift being in the air. "It took two dozen teleportation spells but we are finally here!" Twilight said with a proud but tired smile on her face. Spike took a look around, surprisingly he found there weren't very many people about. He saw a few humans going about their business taking care of the platform and a few guard ponies nearby. All of which, were stallions, which made Spike wonder if Equestria and most other nations on Gaia were actually matriarchal like he had been told. Which made him question why were stallions the only guards he ever saw. He would have to remember to ask Twilight about that later. He then noticed the antiquated flying deathtrap known as an airship, which he cringed at the thought of flying in. He remembered Twilight telling him many times, due to the large number of races that could fly and all the floating cities on Gaia, they had very strict laws on the designs for flying vehicles. Which made sense, you wouldn't want a kid getting sucked into a jet turbine or have a plane go through someone’s living room. Though all he could do was think of the Hindenburg incident. In spite of how many times Twilight had reiterated, that modern Gaia's airships, were just as safe as human planes. It was then he looked up to see the very thing that caused him to be the way he is. The rift. Spike remembered reading that when the rift first opened, it was little more than a hole in the sky. One that allowed unstable magic to come across and create things. Like the magic-blooded, or the large number of talking animals around nowadays. While also allowing dangerous flying animals, like rocs, to come to Earth as well. Though that was in the past. The ponies had quickly built a giant floating mirror that kept animals, and most of the magic out of Earth while allowing ships to get past. "Spike are you okay?" He turned back to Twilight, "Yeah I'm fine, just looking around, by the way, shouldn't there be more people around here? With this being the only way to get from one world to another, I would think there would be a ton of people going back and forth between the two." "I’m afraid there is not much travel between the worlds. A few scientists, engineers, diplomats, and people that help them come and go every few months. That's about it. There really isn’t any trades going on between the two worlds, and all attempts to start tourism have failed. Mostly due to some cultural differences. Which doesn't make sense if you ask me. Also, you will be the first one to emigrate from Earth!" Twilight said with excitement. "Really? Wait what are those cul-" "Princess Twilight it is good to see that you and your coltfriend have gotten here safely." The two turn around to see that the one who cut off Spike was a guard stallion leading a group of other guard stallions, all who were bowing to Twilight. "Please let me and my stallions to get your bags aboard for you your highness," The guard stallion said. "Princess?" Spike spoke not believing what he was hearing, Twilight, a little red in face turned to face Spike then to the guards. "Thank you sir, me and Spike will go ahead and board," Twilight grabbed Spike by the arm and hurriedly took him aboard the airship. Once they were aboard she let go of Spike then asked, “Princess? You're a princess? Like one of the princesses that rule Equestria? Like the two who are basically gods that control the sun and the moon?" Spike asked, while still having a hard time believing his old friend and new girlfriend was a royal. "Well, kind of . . . Spike, I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, but I didn't want you to see me as a princess. I wanted you to see me as . . . me," Twilight answered sheepishly. "I guess I understand why you did that, but still, you're a princess and I'm a nobody why wou-" "Spike you're not a nobody, and anyone who told you that you are don't know what they are talking about. You're smart and always try to help others, despite how everything seems to go against you. And if it makes you feel any better I wasn't born a princess." Twilight said cutting off Spike. "You weren’t then how did you become one?" Spike asked. "I'll tell you about it on the way to our room, I'm a little tired," Twilight grabbed his arm and began walking. "Well, Spike do you remember about the different kinds of ponies?” Twilight asked. "Yeah, there six types of tribes in total; earth pony, pegasus, unicorn, breezie, sea pony, and alicorn," He said as they soon reached their room and Twilight started to open the door. “And do you remember how I told you alicorns are different from the other tribes?" She asked, as she took him into the room. "Well the other five tribes each have their own powers, are about equal in number, and the only way to be of those tribes is to be born of it. But the alicorns are not only much rarer and have the powers of all five tribes. Though most alicorns were of another tribe and then somehow became an alicorn. In fact, didn't you say your niece Flurry Heart was the first known alicorn to be born? Wait a minute, does being an alicorn have something to do with being a royal?" Spike asked. "Yes and no, because alicorns are more powerful than a normal pony all alicorns in Equestria are adopted into the head royal house of Equestria house Solaris, there are other houses of non-alicorns who are descendants of the royals from the countries that joined together to found Equestria, but nowadays they don't have any real power," Twilight answered. "I remember you telling me about the royal houses. If I recall you also said that some old agreement they made, is the reason why princesses and princes are the highest royal titles allowed in Equestria. Wait a minute, you said that your sister-in-law is also an alicorn? Which, would mean your older brother is a prince, so does that also mean your parents and your little sister Barb are also royals?" Spike asked while Twilight sat down on a couch and motioned for Spike to sit down with her, which he did. "No, my parents are still unicorns and Barb is a dragon. Only alicorns, their herd mates and kids count as royals of house Solaris." "I guess that makes sense, but I have to say that only makes me more nervous to meet your family and friends. I mean what are they going to say about you dating someone from another world who is just a nob-" Twilight glared at Spike for what he was going to say causing him to stop his sentence and grin sheepishly. Twilight then pulled Spike in for a hug and rested her head on his shoulder,“Spike I don't think you have anything to worry about. I have told them so much about you. I’m sure they already know you, in fact, they realized my feelings for you before I even did," She said. “Well I guess after everything you have told me about them, I could probably pick them out from a crowd. Despite never seeing them, so in a way, I suppose I already know them too," Spike said. "That’s the spirit Spike! I just know they will all love you," Twilight said eagerly as she could in spite of her tiredness. “I’m glad you think you so. By the way, is there anything more about Equestria's culture I should know about befor-" Spike looked down to see that Twilight had fallen asleep in his arms. Spike smiled,"I suppose it’s nothing that can't wait until I meet them." Not wanting to awake the smaller mare, Spike just held her and tried to sleep. From what Twilight said, it would be a long journey from Luna's Bay to where the Equestria side of the rift was and then on to Canterlot. Where the airship would finally stop. > The Arrival > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike looked out of the bedroom window at the city below, he knew soon they would land. He would finally get to meet the friends and family Twilight had told him so much about. Needless to say, he was worried out of his mind about how they would react. He knew from Twilight that ponies often had trouble getting along with non-ponies, especially dragons, thanks to the long and complicated history Equestria had with the Dragon Lands. Even if he wasn't really a dragon, regardless of if him possessing their magic. Though Twilight had adopted a younger dragon sister his age, but still it made him nervous to think how they would react to him. Maybe he could calm down some if he could power down, but for some reason, he couldn't. "Spike, what’s bothering you?" Twilight asked. Spike turned to face her, “I was hoping to power down to meet everyone, but I can't seem to do it." He answered. "I can't say that I'm surprised, you power up automatically whenever I cast spells around you, so it only makes sense that with the magic all over Gaia, you would stay powered up while here." Twilight explained. "Great that’s just another thing I have to worry about when meeting them." Spike said. "Spike you don't have to worry about ponies treating you differently, because you are a magic-blood. In fact, it will probably help you interact with ponies and other races." Twilight said. "What do you mean by that?" Spike asked. "Well normal humans look very different from any race we have on Gaia, even the few who look the most like humans still look very different from normal humans. However you magic-blooded humans look closer to what races here see as normal, especially when powered up." Twilight explained. "My magic makes me look normal? That’s not something I ever thought I would hear . . . Hey Twilight, how do you think they will react about us dating and living together? I mean, I can already hear your dad and brother giving the whole ‘if you touch her you die’ speech, while your mother is saying you need to find someone to give her grandbabies or something." Spike said. This caused Twilight to giggle a little, “Spike you don't have anything to worry about there. First off on Gaia, it is normally the mothers and older sisters that say things like that, not the fathers and brothers. In case you forgot I do live with Barb and Starlight, so it isn't like we will be on our own. Besides, if they heard you were planning on living on your own, they would probably try to get you to move in with me or someone else anyway," She explained. "Oh, why is that?" Spike asked. "A young stallion moving to not just a new kingdom, but a whole new world living on his own? That sounds like trouble waiting to happen. Oh, and Spike if you are worried about having foals because we are different races, you don't have to that’s not a problem," Twilight said. "Yeah, I know that was a long way off, and if we do get there we could always adopt," Spike said, after realizing what it sounded like when he said it. True he did want kids one day, and he really hopes that Twilight would be there mother. Of course, he knows that and what the whole different species thing means for that. "Well adoption isn't much of an option in Equestria due to it being rare for a foal to be in need of adoption, but that wasn't what I was getting at anyway. We have figured out long ago how to allow beings of different races to crossbreed with one another while allowing their children to one day have children of their own," She explained. "Really? So, if we ever do want kids there is some spell that will allow it to happen?” Spike asked. "Actually we have many different ways to do it, but now that I think of it, you may not need any them at all, thanks to your dragon magic. We should probably get that tested," Twilight said. "What do you mean by that?" Spike asked. "Well dragons are one of the few races on Gaia that can naturally crossbreed with basically anything they can . . . you know . . . do it with, and that all thanks to their magic which you have," Twilight explained. "Huh, well strangely I guess that helps me relax a little about meeting them, but I have to ask, is there any special cultural thing they are expecting me to do or not do involving us dating? I really want to make a good impression on them,” Spike stated. "Actually when it comes to dating, things are weirdly not that different between our two cultures, well at least in terms of the things we do, the reasons behind them are different however," Twilight said. "That’s a little odd, I thought for sure that at the very least, women would do the things men are normally expected to do on dates," Spike said. "Well like I said, the things we do may be the same, but the reasons behind them are different. You see, it used to be in Equestria that dating and choosing their herd-mates were one of the few things stallions had control over in their lives. Which is why stallions are normally the ones who take the lead in dating much like on Earth," Twilight explained. "So they are basically the same practices and traditions, wow that is a load taken off my mind. I thought for sure I would have to do or say something that would be taken as offensive. Just because dating works differently on Earth, but if they are the same I guess I don't have that much to worry about," Spike said. "Well they aren't totally the same, I mean there are more ponies invol-Oh pony feathers! Spike, I forgo-" Suddenly the intercom came on, which cut off Twilight and someone spoke. It sounded like whinnied and spoke in Danish but with even more strange sounds. "Twilight what language was that? It sounded a bit like horse noises?" Spike asked. "That was Equinese, you didn't understa-Of course you didn't understand. I forgot to put a translation spell on you. Uuuh, this is why I always make a checklist, you can't forget things if you have a checklist," Twilight said. "Translation spell, Equinese? Twilight what going on?" Spike asked. “Spike, have you ever wondered how beings from a whole other world were able to speak and read Earth's languages so well?" Twilight asked. "I always assumed ponies just learn them before coming over here,” Spike answered. "No, most of us put this spell on ourselves that allows us to understand the most spoken and written languages of others, as well as to be understood by them," Twilight explained. "Wow that must be very helpful, it just translates all languages perfectly?" Spike asked. "Most, some languages with very complex grammar rules can sound funny with translated like this, take Yakibus for example, it sounds very odd when translated this way. Plus it won't let you write in any language you can't already and bad enough hoof writing can confuse it. Anyway, I'm going to need to cast this on you, otherwise, you won't be able to communicate with others." Twilight explained. "Will this be some kind of daily thing?" Spike asked, as the small purple anthro pony moves right up to his face. "I can make it last a few years, but it will take a couple of minutes. Now hold still," Twilight said as she started to cast the spell on him. A few minutes passed without Spike or Twilight saying anything as she performed the spell. During this time Spike could feel the airship landing. He could also hear a few other people on the ship going past their room, no doubt to help unload the ship. "Alright Spike that should do it but to make sure, I'm going to turn mine off and say something in Equinese." Twilight said, as her horn lights up and then goes out. “Spike you have the cutest plot I have ever seen," Twilight said. "Um, Thanks Twilight," Spike said with a blush, as he has been around Twilight enough to understand what that means. "Looks like it worked and Spike, I want you to know that was true," Twilight with a blush. "Anyway we better get going, they probably have finished unloading everything by now, and I know everyone will be waiting for us." Twilight said, as she picked up their bags with her magic. "Here let me get these Twilight," Spike said, as he grabs as many bags as he could carry, which with his dragon strength was all of them. "Always the gentle-stallion," Twilight said, as she walked out the door. Spike and Twilight barely made it off the airship, before Spike heard someone calling Twilight by name. "Hey, Twilight over here!" "Girls, mom, dad, it so good to see you all, and look who I brought back with me!" Twilight said in a happy voice. "Alright Spike this is your chance, you got to make a good-No a great first impression! Got to show that you are taking this relationship, as new as it is, seriously!" Spike thought to himself as he tried to rally himself up for this meeting. He was ready to put faces to the names he heard so much of. He turned to face them and started to speak, "Hello everyone my name is Spike Th-" only for his brain to imminently stop working, and his face to turn from purple to red as soon as he saw the group with Twilight. A group that was made of ten other mares, one blue stallion, and one who Spike guessed was Barb, Twilight's younger adopted dragon sister. A group that besides Twilight . . . were all completely naked! > The Meeting > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was still dumbstruck at what he was seeing the people he heard so much about were right there in front of him and they were naked. And Twilight the only one wearing clothes was hugging them all like it was no big deal, what was going on here? "Is he alright darling?" "I thought ya said he was purple, he turning redder than Big Mac." "So why isn't he talking or anything?" "Does he have airship lag?" "Spike are you feeling okay?" Twilight ask her boyfriend who was still just staring with his mouth open. "N-N-Naked? Why is everyone naked?" Spike was able to stumble out still not believing what he was seeing. "Naked? Spike what are yo-OH MY CELESTIA! Spike I'm so sorry I forgot to tell you about this." Twilight said as her face turn to purple to red. "Tell him about what darling?" Ask a white unicorn a little shorter that Twilight with a purple mane and tail and diamonds on her butt, wearing nothing but a necklace with a heart shape ruby and what look to be a fanny pack. "That must be Rarity." Spike thought now that he seem to be able to so again. "Don't you all remember why I told you why I had to bring so many clothes to Earth with me?" Ask Twilight. "You mean because humans...Ohh." A yellow pegasus with a pink mane, tail, and feathers, who was a little taller than Twilight had butterflies on her fairly large behind and one the biggest set of boobs Spike have ever seen on a woman. And not just her top ones, the lower pair near her crotch were also fairly large which Spike thought was a bit odd as while he knew about them from Twilight he never notice them on her or any mare he seen before. "That would be Fluttershy, Twilight wasn't kidding when she said her boobs were huge. Huh wearing a fanny pack too." Spike thought as he begin to notice that the were all wearing fanny packs. "Spike I'm sorry for not bring this up before I just forgot how big of a deal clothes are for you humans." Twilight said, "Okay but why is everyone naked?" Spike ask, still confusion and now trying to hid a growing erection from seeing so many good looking naked women even if they weren't human. "You see Spike most races on Gaia hides are a bit tougher than human skin." Twilight started to explain "I remember when we saw falconer you said that ponies who do that don't need those gloves." Spike said trying is hardest not stare or look down, which was hard sense all the ponies were shorter than him. "That right and because of our tougher hides clothes how should I say never around to being as big as a deal to us as it is to you humans. In fact outside of formal events, costumers, and uniforms most ponies only wear a few clothes as a fashion statement." Twilight explain. "So this whole world is like a giant nudist colony? No wonder tourism never got started." Said Spike as he started to understand even if he still had trouble looking at them with out blushing. Suddenly the shortest of them a blue pegasus with a rainbow color mane, tail, and feathers with a lighting bolt on her small butt flew to Spike. Keeping herself high enough to look him in the eyes which Spike was thankful for, being short and to put it mildly flat as a board in both the front and back yet having an athletic build Spike knew this must be Rainbow Dash and thanks how close she was Spike learn a few things about ponies he didn't know. One being apparently the carpet match the drapes, and so do their nipples which turns out are heart shape, and two their genitals were like a some what like that of Earth's horses. "So your the human stallion Twilight told us about, I thought you would be geeker looking." Rainbow Dash Said. "Dash!" Twilight said with a blush. Before Spike could say anything a pink earth pony who was taller than Rainbow Dash but shorter than Twilight, and could only be called chubby and bottom heavy thanks to her large jelly like ass with balloons on it, wide hips, and thicc thighs, ran up to Spike and starting jumping up down. Which allow Spike to notice her top set of breasts were in fact smaller than her bottom ones, but not by much. "So your Spike! We heard so much about you from Twilight! Oh my gosh I'm going to have to throw you a welcome to Equestria party! No make that a welcome to Gaia party! Oh heck why not both! So what your favorite kind of cake? Do like cakes or would you prefer pies or maybe cupcakes!?" She said "You must be Pinkie Pie, nice to meet you Twilight told me a lot about you and I have to say you look and act just how I thought you would base on what Twilight told me. Sorry for not saying anything hello before but this whole naked thing is..well not something I was ready for." Spike said. "So Twilight told you a lot about us huh, does that mean you can tell who who?" Ask Rainbow Dash with a smirk. "You're Rainbow Dash the wonderbolt, that Rarity the fashionista, and that Fluttershy who runs an animal sanctuary." Spike said putting down the bags and pointing at the two ponies, than he pointed to an orange muscle earth pony wearing a stetson hat who much like Pinkie Pie was also bottom heavy but in her case her large apple bottom with the apples on it, thicc thighs, and wide hips were all muscle. Spike couldn't help but notice that only Fluttershy had large chest boobs than her and that her bush was fairly large."That would be Applejack who works on her family apple orchard, that-" Spike said as he pointed to a purple unicorn who had a similar build to Twilight."Is Starlight Twilight's old student and roommate, those are-" he said pointing first to an orange pegasus with purple mane who despite being taller than Rainbow Dash had much smaller wings, than to a white unicorn with purple and pink mane who look a lot like Rarity, than to a yellow red mane earth pony who was almost as muscle as her sister, all three of who had shields on their bottoms. " the cutie mark crusaders Scootaloo, your sister, Sweetie Belle, Rarity's sister, and Applebloom Applejack's sister who if I remember right are my age. Which leaves Barbs and Twilight parents Night Light and Twilight Velvet." Spike said point finally to the three in question, only realize something odd." Barbs were purple and green like him, which Twilight did tell him about, and was a little taller than him as well, none of which was odd, but what was odd was that barbs had no breasts or visible genitals. Which Spike found very odd because he remember Twilight testing if he could eat the same as real dragons by making a form of baby formula which she said was just like dragoness milk. Spike had to remember to ask Twilight about that later. "So you're the stallion my little filly been talking about, she finally ask to visit us huh?" Velvet ask while walking up to him "Oh god if I didn't know she was Twilight's mother I would swear she was her twin sister." Spike thought as look at Velvet. "It is so good to finally meet you Spike, so how long will you be enjoying Equestria with us?" Ask Night Light as walk over with Velvet "Don't look at his blue balls and nipple less chest, don't look at his blue balls and nipple less chest!" Thought Spike even as he look, while remembering how Twilight told him men from Gaia didn't have nipples the first time she saw him without his shirt on." "Actually Spike isn't visiting, he moving here." Twilight told them "So you finally ask him to move here, well its about time! After hearin how he was treated back on Earth I was gettin ready to go over there and bring him back myself."Applejack said "So does this mean you finally got the guts to tell him how you feel or do we have to do that for you? Barbs ask "Barby like you're one to talk, you took your sweet time telling me once you were of age." Rarity said as lean on the large dragon thigh. "Well....actually she did tell me and we are now dating." Spike said getting ready to see how they would reaction to the news and he didn't have to wait long. "Twilight was the one to get a stud? I never thought she would be the one." Said Rainbow dash "Congratulations Twilight." Said Fluttershy "Well I be a horny toad in a rainstorm I thought for sure we would have to do it for ya Twilight." Spoke Applejack. "Oh darlings you simply have to tell us everything!" Squeal Rarity "Now we get to throw a happy new couple party too!" Laugh Pinkie Pie "Is he moving in with us? He is right, we wouldn't want poachers after him." Said Starlight "How long have you been dating?" Ask Sweetie Belle "Where did ya go on ya first date?" Ask Applebloom "Did you two kiss yet?" Ask Scootaloo "Is he getting his own room or he sharing?" Ask Barbs "Hold it, Hold It!" shouted Velvet which got the crowd to quite down, "There just one thing I want to do from you two." Said Velvet in a very stern voice,"Have you two rutted yet?" Ask Velvet with a smile on her face. "MOM!" Scream the red face Twilight "What? I'm just asking if my baby finally been deflower, I know things never got that far with your last two coltfriends but than again you seem to have known Spike here longer and by the way you talk about him I'm guessing like him more as well." Velvet while smiling like she just said the funniest thing ever. "Wow, That not what I was expecting from the news." Said the still red Spike. "Get use to colt you're going to hear more of this from now on." Laugh Night Light. Suddenly the ponies stop talking and look behind Spike and before he could ask why or turn himself he heard two voices coming from behind him. "So this is our newest citizen, and first human one." "Not to me mention the stallion that stole Twilight heart, looks like into the big ones." Spike turn around while looking down expecting to see the heads of two mares, instead he found himself staring at the largest pair of beasts he ever seen. They were pure white with sparking multi color nipples, which cause him to look up to two who they belong toe. A large alicorn as tall as himself with a flowing multi color ethereal mane, wearing a crown and golden necklace, Spike knew it could be none other than Princess Celestia the sun goddess ruler of Equestria. "Like what you see young stallion?" She said with a smirk. Not knowing what else to do Spike got on knee as fast as hew could, and immediately regretted it as he was now face to crotch with a goddess. One who carpet match the drapes, and like to keep said drapes long by the looks of it and her lower breast were larger than normal as well, or least larger than most of the mares he seen today. "Hmm, I thought Twilight said he was purple, he looks more red to me." Spike look up to see another alicorn, this one blue but giving the angle he wasn't really getting a good look at her, well not any he wants to tell her about anyway." Why don't you stand up young stallion, or are you happy enough with your current view?" Celestia said with a giggle which told Spike she knew full where what he was facing. Spike stood up as fast as he could, he wasn't about to make things more awkward with the rulers of his new home, and now that he was standing up he could tell what the two alicorns look like. Princess Celestia was a sign to to see and if he could only use one word to describe her it would be thicc. In addition to well endowed chest she had some of the widest hips, largest ass, he ever seen with thick thighs, and while being a bit chubby she wasn't anyway near fat and somehow still had a bit of a hourglass figure. Her wing feathers were also the same sparking color as her mane and tail. The other one who was Princess Luna Spike was guess look a lot like her sister but a bit smaller. In more ways than one, plus unlike Princess Celestia she had clear muscles on her, she also had a flowing ethereal mane and tail with feathers and nipples to match. Spike was cut of from his train of thought when he heard,"You're right Twilight he does have a cute plot." "MOM!" This cause the two alicorns in front of him to giggle. "It seems like you made a good first impression Mr. Dragon." Celestia said. "Indeed but why are you so red? I heard you were purple, are you sick?" Luna ask "Luna he is blushing, don't you remember humans normally wear clothes which means they view nudity directly with sex." Celestia explain. "Oh that right, well I get in that case his redness means we still got it than." Luna said with a smile as she put her hoof hands on her hips." "I'm sorry your highnesses I didn't mean to stare or anything." Spike said hoping he didn't give himself an one way ticket off of Gaia. "Its fine Mr. Dragon or would you prefer Spike?" Celestia spoke "Spike if you would please." Spike answer. "We came to welcome you Equestria and to see if were all set up for your new live here. I can imagine this may be hard for you and not just in that way." Luna said as she point to Spike crotch. "I'm so sorry your highnesses, its just-" Spike try to explain as he cover his crotch "Don't worry about young stallion we are only teasing you, anyway back to my point do you have a place to stay?" Luna said cutting Spike off. "He staying with me for as long as wants." Twilight said as she move close to Spike. "Oh already in that stage are we Twilight? Just remember to use protection when you all are enjoying yourselves." Celestia said, which cause Twilight to break out blushing. "Anyway as much as well would love to catch up with you all and get to know Spike I'm afraid we have to meet with a griffon lord soon." Luna said "Besides I'm sure you already have plans to for today." Celestia spoke up "I was hoping to show Spike around Canterlot before we headed home today." Twilight said "What a wonderful idea darling! Spike I must show you my boutique here in Canterlot." Rarity said "Oh Oh Oh we can take to The Tasty Treat for lunch." Pinkie said hopping up and down. "And maybe get something from Donut Joe while we're town." Barbs added in. "Well Spike it seems you have a busy getting to known your new herd, have fun and if you need anything just send us a latter by way of Barbs here." Celestia said." "It was pleasant to meet you both your hignesses." Spike said as he pick up the bags. "Wait herd? What did she mean by that Spike thought as he begin to follow Twilight and the others. > The Culture > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike try to look a sight head without looking down at the nude mares in front of him, something which he was failing but was doing better as they show him around Canterlot. This was thanks to Spike quickly learning that while the upside of living in a nudist world is you get see everyone you want to see nude nude, like the many women in Canterlot, the downside is you also get to see everyone you never wanted to see nude nude, like that old guy and his grand-kids which will be hunting Spike dreams for awhile. However this wasn't the only Spike notice, he also notice the amount of stares he was getting which for once he believe didn't have anything to do with him being a magical-blooded. "This must be the first time any of them have seen pants before! Some of them are at least wearing shirts why can't any of these women wear pants! Wait a minute." Spike thought to himself as he look around himself noticing two things he haven't before, the first being there were a lot of women around but not many guys at all. The second was how the ponies were walking with him, Spike and Night Light was in the middle with Twilight Velvet right beside her husband talking to him about something while Twilight was beside him talking to Pinkie, and the others were surrounding them sometimes trading places as they walk. "What going on here? Why are they so many women yet so little men?" Spike thought to himself. "We're here! Get ready for the best donuts in Canterlot!" Bards said with a smile. "Wait till you try his ruby donut, I bet you never had a donut as good as it back on Earth. Wait, you can eat gems right?" Bards said to Spike. "Yeah well at least when I'm magic up like this anyway. Twilight ran some tests see if I could eat like a dragon which brings up a question about dragons I have." Spike said "Oh, what is it?" ask Barbs "Well ,and please don't take this the wrong way, when doing tests Twilight had me drink an old baby formula of yours." Spike said "You mean the one we made out of gem dust?" Ask Velvet. "Yes I wanted to try something small at first and I figure that artificial dragoness' milk was a good start." Twilight explain, "Right and that brings me to my question, Twilight already explain to me that dragons aren't really reptiles so I just assume that meant that lady dragons had the...parts to make milk but well you don't seem to have them so where does the milk come from?" Spike ask hoping he didn't offend her. "What? But I do-oh!"Barbs said as she look down at her chest."Yeah I can see the confusion, dragoness' boobs are deflatable and our nipples are retractable when we aren't nursing or using for hum fun." Barbs explains getting a but red in the face. "It is shame that you don't so off your beautiful breasts and lovely kitten more often Barby, they are a sigh to see." Rarity said while giving a quick squeeze to behind causing her to out a squeak. "Enough talk lets get those donuts." Rainbow Dash said as she enter the building followed by the others including Spike "I guess that means her kitten is also retractable, shame they ponies can't do that otherwise in would make this day a lot easier." Spike thought as he enter the building. As they enter Spike notice a few others in the store, most mare. In fact besides him and Night Light the only other gut was an unicorn working there, probably this Donut Joe they were talking about. "Spike why don't you and find us a table while we get the donuts and maybe a few coffees." Rarity said to him, "Yeah you must be tire from carrying all those bags around." Dash added. "That does sound like a good idea to me." Spike said as he Twilight, and her parents when to sit down at a table near the front while the others when to get the food. "Hey Twilight how come there was so many women around town today?" Ask Spike, "What a woman?" Ask Night Light. "That what a female human is call dad, but it this case I think he mean mares." Twilight said, "Well yeah, I mean there was a wome-mean mares around but hardly any me-stallions around. In fact that seems to be the case here as well, isn't that odd?" sapd Spike Twilight's parent look around but clearly didn't see what he was finding odd while Twilight rub the back of her head and blush a bit. "Spike remember how I told you I forgot to tell you something on the airship only to get to busy with the spell to tell you."Twilight said, "Yeah I remember but wasn't it the translation spell you were talking about or the nudist thing?" Spike ask, "No, it was well you see the sex ratio for the races of Gaia isn't the same for humans." Twilight started to explain, "What do you mean by that?" Spike ask, "Yeah, how are humans any different from any other race in that area?" Ask Velvet clearly not knowing what Twilight was getting at. "Well while humans about equal in the male to female ratio the same isn't true for any race on Gaia, especially ponies. In fact females normally out number males five to one in most areas if not more." Twilight Explain, "Five to one? Than why were there always so many stallions on Earth?" Spike ask having a bit of a hard time with what he was hearing. "That because most of the stallions you saw on Earth were royal guards, the military of Equestria and indeed most other kingdoms on Gaia have always been mostly control by males. In fact in the past the military was one of the few jobs males could get any position of power and authority in." Twilight explain "But why if they make up only a small number of the population?" Spike ask as he was still processing this information. "Well this has always been the case so it is more of a theory than a true answer but it is the one most agree with. As you by looking at my father or Donut Joe other there stallions and in fact most males of other races are normally larger and physically stronger than females." Twilight Explain as Spike took a quick look at them it was true both stallions and now that Spike think of all the stallions he saw were larger than any of the mares he, except the royal sisters that is. "So because that it is believe that the males became the default warriors for most cultures as well as the default heavy labors. Now this isn't the case for all races, in both the fey and the arachne the females are larger than the males so it is normally the females that make up their military." Twilight explain more. "Well I guess that part makes sense, wait if there so many more wome-mares than stallions how does that work in terms of dating and relationships? Wouldn't that mean there would be a lot of mares out there with no hope of finding a stallion just because there isn't enough to go around?" Spike ask. This cause Twilight parents to look very confuse and turn to Twilight who was busy trying ti hide in her seat. "On Earth your type of relationship is the norm because of how equal in number they are." Twilight told her parents,this cause her parents to go wide eye as if they have just realize a few things that Spike clearly haven't. "Twilight say that you told Barbs and your friends that-" "Yes," Twilight say cutting off her mother, "And you didn't explain to him about-" "I didn't put it on a list and forgot about." Twilight said cutting off her father. "Twilight what going on?" Spike ask "We got the donuts!" Pinkie happily said as she and the others came to the table and started to sit down. "I'll explain everything later tonight Spike." Twilight said. > The Home Coming > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After spending the day in Canterlot and seeing the sights Spike and the girls said bye to Twilight's parents and headed to Ponyville after their dinner at the Tasty Treat. It was a little late by the time they back there, and there didn't seem to be anyone out on the streets."Its very quite, it isn't?" Spike said as he look over the empty streets. "Ponyville doesn't really have a night life darling, not that it matter much tonight as I'm sure you're going have a very enjoyable night anyway. Now come Barby and lets get home." Rarity said, "Barbs I thought you lived with Twilight?"Spike ask Barbs turn red as she,"Well I do It just- well it just.." "Its just me and my Barby have decide to have a little fun to ourselves tonight." Rariry said as she grab Barbs ass getting a squeak from the dragoness. "Oh, well have fun that." Spike said with a little red in his face as well. "Oh we will, just try to tire out Twilight to much tonight darling." Rarity said as she and Barbs walk away. "I better get back before my parents start to worry, nice meeting you Spike." Sweetie Belle said as left "Come on Applebloom we better get back before Granny Smith and Big Mac starts wondering where we at, Oh and Spike sugarcube try to go easy on Twilight. "Applejack said with a grin, "Bye, see ya all son." Applebloom said as she and her sister walk off. "Come Scoots I better get you home before your aunts get worry, oh and Twilight I want to hear everything about tonight." Rainbow Dash as she and Scootaloo started to leave, "Have fun!" Scootaloo called back. "I better get going too before my animals get worry." Fluttershy said, "I better head home too, oh and you two try to get some sleep tonight. After all I got a super duper fun party to throw tomorrow for our town newest eye candy!" Pinkie said as she and Fluttershy head home, "I think I'll spend tonight with Trixie, that way you two can have your alone time." Starlight said right before she teleported away leaving the now red face and speechless purple couple behind. "So I guess we better head home hey Twilight." Spike said breaking the awkward silent, " "Yeah, I guess I better tell that I live -" "In the giant crystal castle?"Spike said cutting off Twilight, "How did you guess?" Twilight ask "Where else would a princess live, besides who else in town would call it home." Spike said with a bit of a grin. "I guess it was a little silly of assuming you couldn't tell." Twilight said with a giggle. The two headed to the castle, with Spike still carrying all the bags, talking about the events of a day. And much to Spike enjoyment they didn't run into anyone on the road as Spike was getting a little tire of having a red face from all the nude ponies. Giving how small Ponyville is it didn't take long for the two of them to get to the castle and head inside. "Spike do you mind putting the bags down, there something very important I need to tell. Something probably should have told you earlier but I, well I forgot." Twilight said with a nervous smile. "Okay?" Spike said as put down the bags. Twilight took him to the liberty so they could have their little talk, a talk she seem to be nervous about. "First off Spike I want to apologize for not telling you about the, lack of clothes on Gaia it is just there something that are so normal about your culture you just forget to tell others about them even if you know it isn't the same with them." Twilight said. "Its okay Twilight I guess I just got to get use to it." Spike said hoping he could, "Well that brings me to my next point and it is about relationships in Equestria and I guess the rest of Gaia as well. You remember the talk about how there were so many more mares than stallions and how I said that my parents relationship would be normal on Earth?' Twilight ask Spike remember what she was talking about well because he was still trying to figure out what she meant by that and how relationships could work in a world where the women outnumber the men by so many, and he could only think of one way but that couldn't be right could it. "Yeah I do." Spike answer back. " Well you see my parents relationship is a bit odd on Gaia because there only two of them in it, and well there normally more ponies involve then that."Twilight said, Spike realizing his guess was right was still a bit stock, "You me harems are the norm here?" "We ponies call them herds, but yet. Most ponies live in herd with one or two stallions as the husbands and fathers with four to six mares as the wives and mothers, plus whatever children their have that still live with them. In fact that brings me to something else I need to tell you, you see sense mares share their stallions and you see Spike when a single mare hits it off with a single stallion, like the way we have, the mare normally helps the stallion build his herd by introducing him to her close single friends." Twilight said clearly very nervous "Introd-Twilight are you saying you want me to date your friends too? Wait a minute what about your parents?" Spike said still puzzle about all of this and how it works. "My father of course try to get a herd when he was younger but he never found anypony that he and mom could see as herd mates. Its rare but sometimes happens like that, in fact one of the reason me and the fillies get along so well is because we all came from a two parents home. Well Applejack and Applebloom did before their parents past away. And Spike want you to know that I understand if you aren't comfortable with this and I won't try to talk you into it and it won't chance what between us one way or the other." Twilight said while putting he hoof Spike hand. "But you want me to try don't you?" Spike ask her not sure how he should feel about this. "Yes, even if don't develop romantic feelings for them a few dates may lead to you all being close friends." Twilight said, "Twilight I don't know how to feel about this, I mean I'm not even sure what you see in me much less what people I just met today could see in me but if this means so much to you I am willing to at least give it a chance. Besides ever if I never took the idea of a harem seriously before I wouldn't be a man if I didn't at least think about." Spike said with a small smile at the last part, causing Twilight smile back as she gibe him hug. "But wait, aren't your friend Rarity and sister Barbs gray? I mean they are clearly dating and well you know." Spike ask. "Well actually most beings on Gaia are bisexual or pansexual, being pure heterosexual or homosexual is rare probably because of how the sex ratio is, most mares just normally wait till after they find a stallion before seeking a relationship with a mare sense that would mean they are a packet deal and traditionally being able to pick out their own herd with help from their lead mare is one of the few ways stallions could be seen as equal. So yeah they are both into guys if that what you're wondering." Twilight. explain "Mostly bisexual? Does that mean that you are as well?" Spike ask a bit surprise to hear this. "Well yes Spike, in fact Pinkie is the only one who isn't and that because she pan, again that the normal for our world for both males and females of races." Twilight explain. "Huh, I guess that makes sense, well I guess that something to keep in mind for the party tomorrow. So Twilight where the room I'll be staying at." Spike said Twilight blush when she heard that, "Actually Spike...Well I know we have only just started dating but we have know each other for years and I...I was hoping we could share a bed if that okay with you." Spike eyes got wide and that, "Like we did last night." He said thinking of how they spend the night sleeping together, mostly because she fell asleep on him and he didn't what to wake her. "Well yes but..I was hoping we..that we could be a little more closer this time." Twilight said with shy smile and a blush Spike knew what she was asking, anyone with one brain cell could tell what she was asking. His first real friend who became his first crush who became the woman he love but could tell because he knew she was to good for him even when he didn't know she was princess, who became the woman that told him she love him just for being himself even if he couldn't understand why, was asking him make love to her. Spike didn't believe he deserve and never did but he knew there was only one answer he could give, only one answer he thinks he could ever give to her. "Okay Twilight." He said with a blush for redder then any he had today. > The Love Scene > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight led Spike to her room, or their room as it would be after tonight. When they got there the two silently turn to each other, Twilight looking up at Spike and Spike looking down at Twilight, both clearly nervous yet at the same time wanting wanting it. Two of them started to undress, Twilight thanks to her magic and clearly being more comfortable naked was the first to finish while Spike just took his shirt off. Spike took a moment to look at her, she didn't have the size or curves as some of the other mares he saw today but to him she couldn't be more beautiful. Spike started to undo his pants with a new worry hit him, "Hum, Twilight there something I just realize could be a bit of a problem?" "What that Spike?" Twilight ask, "Well it just that stallions looks to be in the same proportions as human men, and I'm little bigger down there then average, and well, how will the size difference work here?" Spike ask he took of his pants and boxers showing that while he may not be huge he was noticeably bigger than the average man. Twilight took a look down biting her lip while her face turn red, "Wow that is big, well it shouldn't be a problem we can are a bit stretchy. So I'm sure I can take it." Twilight answer, "Are you? I don't won't to hurt you while we you know do it." Spike said while still looking over the mare that he love as he was trying memorize every single inch of her. "Its fine Spike, just go gentle please, its, its my first time."Twilight with a blush , "Its your first time to? But didn't you have two other boyfriends?" Spike ask, "Flash and Timber? There were good guys but we never got that far, I, I never felt like this about anyone else before." Twilight said Spike as if on instinct bend down, and put his arms around Twilight as he give her a deep passion fill kiss. Twilight place her arms around him as her wings shot out and their tongues tasted each other, neither one trying to control. Spike move one of his arms lower and lifted her up as he walk over to her bed, no their bed. He place her on the edge as he kneed down, "Twilight I'm going try and make this as good for you as I can, just let me know if I do something wrong, cause your anatomy is difference from that of a human woman." Spike took a close look at her vagina, seeing cilioris looking almost like a upside heart winking at him. He guess this meant she was aroused as he didn't see any other mare today do that. Using his thumb and index finger he grab it gently and starting to rub earning a grasp of pleasure from Twilight . Using the rest of his fingers to play with her lips he use his other hand to pinch one of her nipple on one of her lower tits, while also gently grabbing and squeezing it. "Spike this is amazing! Those fingers, I never knew how good fingers could feel!" Twilight moan out in pleasure. Spike remove his hand and move it to join the other one at Twilight tits while he place his lips on her lower lips and kiss her deep. Twilight grab the bed as best she could as she felt Spike tongue hit places she wasn't aware she had, she could feel she was close, "Spike, I'm going I'm going-AAAAA!" Twilight scream in pleasure as like a broken dam a flood of liquid shot from her into Spike waiting mouth. Spike try to take as much as he could but he had to pull while Twilight was still squirting. "That was rutting incredible! Spike, do it, make me your mare." Twilight said while grasping for breath, "Twilight are sure you don't need to wait a bait?" Spike ask with a little concerned in his voice, "No, I'm ready Spike, take me,"Twilight answer back while holding her arms up ready to ready for her lover to take her. Spike stood up and align his rock hard member with Twilight moist cave. He as slowly and gently as could enter Twilight, feel her soft marehood stretch around him. "So big" Twilight moan as Spike pick her up, finally now all the way into her. "Twilight let me know when you're ready and I'll start moving." Spike said, "Wait, I have to..Oh so big..I have to cast the spell." Twilight horn started to glow as she use her magic. "There the protection spell is in place, now we don't have to worry about any foals just yet."Twilight said. Spike slowly started to pull out of her, feeling her clamp down on him as if she refuse to let him go. When he almost had his tip he start pushing back in, a little faster then before and as soon as was all the way in again he repeated the process going a little faster each time. Spike look down at Twilight seeing that she was both gasping in pleasure, her wings were out stretch as far as they could go, and that strangely her horn was starting to glow but not as bright as does when she normally cast spells. Remembering how Twilight told him that ponies horns were sensitive when glowing Spike decide to try something, moving his arms so he could hold Twilight with just one arm under her Spike reach down and grab her horn, and begin to rub it down from tip to base. Twilight let out a grasp of pleasure and surprise from this, before her moaning grew louder. Harmless sparks started to come of the tip, seeing this motivated Spike to go faster. The combine effort of horn being played with and pussy being filled prove to much for Twilight, she let a scream of pure pleasure as love nectar cover Spike crotch and strange almost jelly like blast of magical energy cover Spike hand and chest. The force cause her to clamp down hard on Spike member which prove his undoing as he found himself shooting his load deep with her. The two found themselves collapsing onto the bed from the force of their powerful orgasms. "Spike that was just incredible!" Twilight said as best she could while trying to catch her breath, and as her arms and legs already warp around Spike squeeze tighter. "I love you Spike." She said, "I love you to Twilight." Spike answer back as he warp his arms around her as the drifted off to sleep. > The Breakfast > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike woke up with Twilight still asleep in his arms, a sight that told him last night was far more then just a wonderful dream. He give her on her head as carefully got out of bed making sure not to wake his princess, after a little trip to the bathroom, a shower, and fresh set of clothes Spike decided to make some breakfast for his purple pony princess. It took a little longer then he would care to admit to find the castle's kitchen but once he did he started cooking right away. "These are some big eggs." Spike said as look at the eggs in the refrigerator seeing that they came in two different sizes. One type a normal size chicken egg while the other was about the size of a football but other then its size was like a normal chicken egg in looks. "Well I guess we can have left-over scrambled eggs, now lets see should I go with the carton of milk or the glass jug of milk? Hm, Twilight must have gotten the jug at a farmers market guess I'll use it." Spike said as he got one egg and the jug of milk out with a little bit cheese. "Now where that spic?" Spike said as he starts to look around, "Wow! I guess this is for Barbs" Spike said as found a shelve full of gems. After finding the spic it didn't take him long to get the food ready. "So this is where you ran off to lover." The purple naked alicorn said as she enter the kitchen. Spike blush seeing her like this, he may have made love to her last night but seeing her naked was something he doesn't he would ever get use to. "I thought making you breakfast was the least I could do after all you have done for me, especially after last night." Twilight giggle a bit on hearing that,"Well in that case we may have to do more often. So what are we having?" "I got us some scrambled eggs, or should I say scrambled egg, some toast and I got us some of that jug milk out. Hope you enjoy it." Spike answer back "I think will, here I'll set the table." Twilight said as use her magic to pick up the food as she led Spike into a large room with a crystal table and seven crystal chairs around. Twilight quickly set up the food, as she and Spike sat down to eat. "Wow not only is this egg the biggest I seen its the tastiest is too!" Spike said soon as he finish his first bite "Barbs will be happy to hear that, she always a little self conscious about what other think of eggs." Twilight said as she took a bite of her own. This cause Spike to stop,"Wait, her eggs? As in eggs that she lay herself?" "Yes, you didn't know?" Twilight answer back "NO! Why were they right beside the normal eggs!?" Spike said as started to panic "What? Spike calm down it just an unfertilized food egg and I don't thin Barbs were planning on anything that she can't use the other eggs for." Twilight explain "What? Twilight you may need to explain something here." Spike said "I guess I do well dragons lay eggs and like almost all races that lay eggs they sometimes lay plain egg white unfertilized eggs that we call food eggs, and in dragons case their food eggs don't even have the armor scales their fertilized eggs have." Twilight explain "So dragons and all the other races you told me about that lay eggs sale their unfertilized eggs as food?" Spike said as he try to warp his head around it "Not all of them as not all of them do that but yeah sometimes, in fact Barbs lays about two egg week or so." Twilight said "Do the smaller eggs come people too? And is there anything I should know that made from people." Spike ask "Those were normal Gaia chicken's eggs and as to the second part there are a few other things. Like our wool come from satyrs of the sheep tribe and then there milk." Twilight explain some more as Spike was drinking some of his milk. "What now? You mean to say this milk came from a person?" Spike said as he look down at his milk "Gaia doesn't have any animals like Earth's domestic cows but there are some races that the females make though out there adult lives instead of only making when they are nursing babies or at least some of them do. So instead of letting go to waste they normally sale it or give it away." Twilight said "What races are those?" Spike ask still looking at the milk he was drinking "Minotaurs are where most milk comes from as they make more of it being bigger then most other races, follow by some satyrs and some but not all ponies do it as well. In fact this milk is from Pinkie Pie." Twilight said "Pinkie Pie? Is that why its so sweet?" Spike ask Twilight giggle a little,"I guess all those sweets has to go somewhere besides her plot, and she going to love that you her milk. Now we better hurry and finest eating we have a lot to do today." Twilight said "We do? Like what?" Spike ask "First we need to go to the town hall so you can finish a little bit of paper work about moving into town, its not a lot but may take awhile just to get it. Then afterwards I think it would be a good idea to show you around town to help get a lay out of it, also it may help ponies get use to you faster if they see you walking around with me instead of by yourself." Twilight said "Well that last part sounds fun at least, I hoping to actually get to see the little town you told me so much about." Spike said "Also I was kind of hoping that you may only if you feel like it of course ask the others out on some dates." Twilight said as she started to blush a bit "So soon? I mean I'm still up to trying at this herd thing but we have just started dating, wouldn't that make seem like we are rushing it a bit?" Spike ask "Not really, I have been telling them about you sense we first met so they already have a good idea bout you and that normally the first step in a herd." Twilight said. "I guess we really do have a busy day ahead of us then." Spike said as ate his breakfast and trying to figure how he, someone who didn't even have a parents to look to as an example of a relationship was going to do this herd thing. > The Paperwork > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After their breakfast Spike and Twilight headed out, with Twilight wearing nothing but a fanny pack. They make there way to the town hall with Twilight even and now again pointing out a few places, like the quills and sofas store. Which Spike couldn't help find it odd that a store would specialize in two very different goods like that. They are ran pass by many ponies during this and all of them were nude, well excerpt for a grey cross-eye pegasus mare who was wearing the top half of what look like mailman uniform. And of course he got some stares from the ponies that he still believe came from the fact he wearing pants and not because he was a magic-blooded human. It didn't take long before they reach town hall, seems like are the roads in town led to it which Spike guess made sense, after all it is in the middle of town. "Well Spike after we get this paperwork done you will an official r-" "HHHHUUUUMMMMAAAANNNN!!!!" Twilight and Spike turn to face the direction the scream came from only for Spike to find himself nearly tackle to the ground by flash of green. "BY CELESTIA'S CUTIE MARK A REAL HUMAN MAN! YOU'RE A MAGIC-BLOODED AREN'T YOU, I mean of course you all just look at you! I'm guessing dragon-blooded, stratodon- blooded if you what to get technical , but what are you doing here? Are you on vacation? or are you diplomat? Oh my Luna, look at those hands! Real five finger human hand! Can I touch them?!" A green unicorn mare talking a mile per minute ask Spike all of this while not stopping to breath. "What?" Spike more then a bit confuse ask "Lyra will you leave my coltfriend alone." Twilight ask the mare. "Coltfriend?! You have a human coltfriend?! Have you slept together yet?! Did he use those hands?! What was it like?!" Lyra ask Twilight "Lyra Heartstrings leave them alone! I'm so sorry Twilight and uh who ever your friend is, she just saw him and well." A light beige earth mare with a blue and pink mane said as she walk towards them. "Can you blame me? A human right here in Ponyville!" Lyra "Excuse me but what is this all about? Spike ask more then a little confuse about what was going "Sorry about that Spike I probably should of known this would happen once Lyra heard you were here. These are the Heartstrings, Bon Bon and her wife Lyra who as you can see is a big fan of humans." "As well as almost anything with fingers." Bon Bon added "Well of course! Fingers are so cool and the can play the lyra so good! If I had finger I bet I would be the best lyra player ever! Do you play the lyra? I bet you cou-" "Come Lyra we need to by some things before I open the shop today! Again I'm really sorry for this, if you come by the shop I'll give you half-off on anything in the store." Bon Bon said as pull Lyra away. Spike turn to Twilight looking for an answers,"She harmless, she just a little jealous of beings with real fingers while she has to use a spell to make fake ones to play her lyra, also the shop is a candy store if you want to go by later." "Okay, but why did she call me a stratodon-blooded?" Spike ask "Oh right you were never able to make to my lectures about dragon tribes. You see there are eight tribes of dragons and stratodons are the ones with the with wings are their back like you and Barb. There are also wyverns with wings as part of their arms, salamanders who have no wings, basilisks who have six arms, lindwurms who have no wings and instead of legs have long snake-like tails to crawl around on, amphipteres who also have no legs but have wings as part of their arms, dagons who are basically dragon mermaids, and ryu who have long bodies and no wings but can still fly." Twilight explain "Do they all have different powers like pony tribes?" Spike ask "Not really, I mean ryu can fly with out wings and dagons can breath underwater but other then that they have the same elemental powers. Of course their different body types do give them different abilities physical abilities of course." Twilight explain further "I have to remember that, well I guess we better get to that paper work." Spike said and with that the two enter town to see many ponies running around or standing in lines, and in some cases standing in lines to stand get into lines. "I guess somethings don't change no matter what world you go to." Spike thought as he look at the lines. "So this is the human that won our princess heart?" Spike and Twilight turn to see a light-brown earth mare with a grey mane wearing a shirt collar minus the shirt, while holding some papers. "What the point of even wearing that?" Spike thought to himself and he try not to stare. "Mayor Mane how are you?" Ask Twilight "Well after getting that paper work yesterday hearing about who you were bring home with you I decided to bring all the paper work your young stallion friend will need to fill out." Mayor Mane explain "That nice of you mamn." Spike said "Well its the least I could do, after all its not everyday we get a new citizen moving to town much less one from another world. However should warn you that we don't have any copies in any Earth language." Mayor Mane said "Don't worry I have already give the translating spell and I'll be here to help him just in case." Twilight said "In that case I'll just leave you two to it then." Mayor Mane said as she handed over the paper work and then walk off. As Twilight and Spike started to walk over to one of the nearby tables Spike decided to ask Twilight about the paper work."So what in this paper work anyway? You said you already took care of all my immigration paper work?" "Oh this has nothing to do with that, this is just the normal things you need when you more to a new town. Voter registration, mailing address, just basic things like that." "Like a driver license?" Spike ask "No that would be something different, and frankly you really don't need one of those in Equestria anyway. Our towns and cities are build for walking and public transportation so there isn't much point in getting one especially sense any vehicles you would need to get one cost a lot sense there almost no market for them." Twilight explain "Then how to people buy beer or get into clubs?" Spike ask "You just use a Photo ID which I have already sign the paper work to get one as part of your immigration work. I should also tell you that you have to twenty-one to get into most places that need you to have one including buying alcoholic drinks. By the way Spike after we are done here I thought we could see the fillies and maybe you could only if you want to of course, well, you know right?" Twilight spoke "Ask them out? Are you sure you want me to do that? I mean we just started dating and I only met them yesterday, I mean I'm willing to try this polyamory thing but still this is new to me." Spike said "Like I said only if you are okay with it, I'm only bring up because I think going out with on dates with them will help you get use to Equestria." Twilight said "Then I guess it is a plan then, by the way can help sign a few of theses? I don't think they will understand if I write in English." "Of course." Twilight said as she and Spike got to work on the paper work. > The Town > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After finishing the paper work Spike and Twilight made plans to see the rest of town starting with Carousel Boutique sense it wasn't to far from town hall. However as soon as the left town hall they ran into someone else. "Hey Spike look its its Rainbow Dash." Twilight said while pointing to her friend in the sky Spike quickly look up and partly regretted it when he saw that his spot on the ground allow him to see everything of both Rainbow Dash and the other pegasue mare she was talking to undercarriages. Of course they view did make him wonder something. "Why do mares have pubic hair the same colors as their manes and tails and not their body fur? None of the stallions I have seen had that." He thought to himself as he didn't know how to ask this to Twilight. "HI Rainbow Dash!" Twilight called out which cause the small hovering mare to look down and fly towards the two of them "Yo Twilight Spike wants up?" Rainbow ask "Twilight showing me around town today now that I'm finish with some of my moving in paper work." Spike answer "We're on my way to Carousel Boutique to see Barbs and Rarity." Twilight answer back "Really now? Is that because you two lovely couples are planning on trading stories about doing the nasty?" Rainbow Dash said with a giggle "Dash!" Twilight said as she started to brush "I'm just kidding but seriously concentration on losing your virginity Twilight." Rainbow said which cause both Spike and Twilight to blush even heavier. "Hey Rainbow Dash will you hurry up!" The mare she was talking to yelled "I'm Coming, I'm coming! I would love to hear all about the naughty details but I got to go, sense I was the best and longest serving weather team captain they ask my to talk to some of the members for them.Anyway see you later" Rainbow Dash said with pride and started to leave, only to stop when she heard Spike called out. "Hey Rainbow Dash before you go I was wonder if sometime you may want to hang out." Spike said "Making your move already big colt? You human stallions work fast, not that I'm complaining. How about Tuesday, Twilight said you didn't fly much back on Earth so how about I help find out what those beauties can really do?" Rainbow Dash said with smile while pointing at his wings "Sounds like a date then." Spike answer back Rainbow Dash blush at that but still came her smile,"In that case get ready for a work out, see ya." And she flew off with the other mare. "That wasn't so hard now was it." Twilight said with a smile "I guess not, still feels weird asking another girl out while I'm dating someone. Anyway what was that about Rainbow Dash being the longest serving caption on the weather team? You never made it sound like she work there that long." Spike said "For a weather team's job she did, weather teams are only part time jobs and because the work is so easy to do for pegasus who can fly its basely every pegasus first job and the job every pegasus gets when they are in between the jobs they want or on want a second job. So they have a high turn over rate as ponies either get new jobs or get promoted off the team. Rainbow Dash wasn't interested in going higher then captain and the only job she wanted was being a wonderbolt so she had to wait." Twilight explain "That make sense then" Spike said as they made their wait to Carousel Boutiqu. It didn't take very long to get there and when they did Spike was surprise to see ponies wearing dresses and other clothes coming out of it. None were wearing pants but at least this was something. As they enter they saw Barbs working at the register while Rarity was busy with some customers. Twilight quickly took Spike to the side to tell him something before either could see them. "Spike before you ask them I should tell you that in Equestria when two mares have decide they want to be in the same herd no matter what, either because they are in love or are just really good friends they will go out on dates with a stallion together. At least for a while to show they are a packet deal as it was." Twilight said "So if I ask one of them out then I will being going out with both at once? I guess that really isn't surprising." Spike said. "Twilight, Spike how good of you two to stop by this morning, I trust you two slept well. Assuming you when to bed that is." Rarity said with smirk as the two turn to look at her. "Good morning to you too Rarity, I'm showing Spike around town today." Twilight said "Showing him around town or showing him off to the town?" The still smirking Rarity said causing Twilight to blush "Hey Rarity if you don't mind I would like to ask you and Barbs something." Spike said "Oh really now? Well as I'm sure Twilight said to you last night just come this way." Rarity said as she walk over to Barbs, making sure to wiggle her hips on the way over. "Hi Twilight, Hi Spike, how you today?" Barbs ask as she rang up the last customer inline "We're find Barbs anyway I would like to ask you and Rarity here out on a date sometime, not Tuesday. I have a date with Rainbow Dash that day." Spike said "That sounds nice, what do you think Rarity?" Barbs ask "I think that sounds delightful, any idea on where we should go darling?" Rarity said "I was kind of hoping you two would have an idea sense I'm new here and all." Spike answer "How about a spa day? Those are always fun." Barbs said "What a wonderful idea Barby, and sense Twilight says you have some kind of massaging license I'm sure you can tell us what spas are like on Earth." Rarity said "I can try but I have never been to a spa before so it will be very limited." Spike said "What?" Rarity ask with a confuse look on her face, one that Barbs also share "Earth's spas aren't like Equestria's spas" Twilight said "Yeah, instead of being something everyone can afford to get something done at least once week they are very expensive. Every the cheap ones will still set you back some and I never had enough money to go to one." Spike explain "But why?" Barbs ask "I guess sense humans aren't cover in fur like we ponies they have easier time with their personal hygiene." Twilight said "But with that license why didn't you work at one?" Rarity ask "I became certified by just taking a few classes at a community center thinking I would led to a job but no one wanted to hire my on the grounds that they thought having a magic-blooded on staff would lose them business." Spike said "That awful! We must recfind this injustice at once!" Rarity said "I think we may need to wait till our date Rarity." Barbs said as pointed out all the customers still in the store. "I have no issue waiting till then." Spike said "Very well but I assist we do the works to show you just how wonderful a spa say really is." Rarity said "In that case bye Rarity, I'm going to take him to see the others now." Twilight said with a smile on her face "It was nice seeing you two again." Spike said "See you." Rarity said "And don't worry Twilight I'll be home for dinner." Barbs said as the purple lovers walk outside "I feel like a snack, how about we go by Sugarcube Corner now?" Twilight ask "I guess I'll be asking Pinkie next, do you think her Pinkie's sense is telling her what I'm doing?" Spike said "How knows, you can never tell with her." Twilight said with a giggle The two walk over to Sugarcube Corner, it wasn't to far from Rarity's so it didn't take long. "Wow it really does look like you could eat it, and I thought you were just kidding." Spike said "Told you so Twilight said while sticking out her tongue causing Spike to giggle as they walk right inside. And into a shower of confetti. > The Welcome > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Welcome to Ponyville Spike The Dragon!" Pinkie shouted with her trade mark smile. "Pinkie you met yesterday." Twilight said "Yeah but I didn't welcome him to Ponyville yesterday. Of course I could always celebrate a certain purple princess losing her maiden hood instead." Pinkie said with a bit of a giggle This earn a few blushes from the two purple beings. "Did your Pinkie sense tell you about that?" Spike ask "No, well yes but I knew it was going to happen before I felt that tingling there just by how Twilight here was acting." Pinkie answer "You get a tingling when someone losses there virginity?" Twilight ask "Yep!" Pinkie answer "Where do you get it?" Spike ask Pinkie then made a solf purring noise while giving Spike some bedroom eyes. "Maybe if you play your card right I'll show you some time." Spike face glowed red as he had a good idea now where that tingling was. "Looks like you figure it out." Pinkie said with a giggle."So what brings you two here anyway?" "Well we were hoping to get a little snack." Twilight said "Really? because I thought you were here because you were getting Spike to ask us all our both to see if we have any chemistry with him and to help Spikey gets use to Equestria. And sense he have already ask Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Barbs out you came to ask me out." Pinkie said "...That us surprisingly accurate, wow you were sport on about her Twilight." Spike said Pinkie giggle,"How about I take you out for dinner on Monday then?" "That sounds good for me, but I better check with Rarity and Barbs first as now that I think of it we never did set up a day for our date." Spike answer "In that case I guess the only question is-" And suddenly Pinkie seem to disappear only to reappear behind the counter."What would you like to snack on?" "How about some oat muffins?" Twilight ask "Sounds good to me." Spike answer "Two oat muffins coming right up! Oh and by the way Applejack is in town running the fruit stand today." Pinkie said as ran off to get the muffins "I guess I know who I'm asking out next then." Spike said It didn't take long for Pinkie to get their muffins and the two were off to the market place to see Applejack at her fruit stand. While on the way to the stand Spike notice all the stands around them and how ponies were busy buying varies goods at the stand. "So do these stands open everyday or just for a day?" Spike ask "Neither, the stands open about three days a week, sometimes four if a holiday is coming up." Twilight explain as they came into sight of the fruit stand. Where Applejack and a elderly stallion was selling apples, pears, and apple and pears products. "Hey, Applejack, hi Grand Pear!" Twilight said as she took Spike to the side of the stand. "Howdy Twilight and Spike."Applejack said with a smile "Nice to see you again Princess Twilight, and this young, Umm, male must this Spike I hear tale about. How are you enjoying our world so far fella?" The elderly Stallion ask while helping his customers "Well Mr. Pear the whole nudity thing is still something I'm trying to get use to but there no doubt that people are friendly here so it is going great so far." Spike said while being very thankful that the elderly stallion was behind the corner top so he could only see his top half. "Please just call me Grand Pear young umm, male. I have to say it is good to see you are staying with a powerful and smart mare like Princess Twilight now, a young orphan male moving to a new kingdom why that just asking for stallion poachers to after you." Grand Pear said as hoof over a bag of pears to yellow mare. "Stallion poachers? What are those exactly?" Spike ask "Ya didn't warn him about poachers Twilight?" Applejack ask "Well I didn't really thing it was necessary, its not like Ponyville has ever had a problem with them or like there many of them left now a days. Besides he not a stallion and stallion poachers would never try to take a half-dragon which does look like." Twilight answer "He still should be warn about them." Applejack said "Excuse me but who are these stallion poachers and why do they kidnap stallions?" Spike ask "Well I'm afraid that one of the downsides of having so many more mares the stallions is that we have type of criminal call stallion poachers who kidnap stallions and then sell them either to areas with very few stallions or to mares that can afford them. But I don't believe you have anything to worry about from the, the crime rates in Equestria has always been very low and there are less stallion poachers then ever. Besides they go after stallions and normally stay away from races that can put up a good fight which dragons and half-dragon on the top tier of that. Also in honesty these criminals deal mainly with ponies and ponies have issues getting along with other races in the past with dragons being on top of that most of all." Twilight explain "Well that good to know just in case.' Spike said not really sure about but giving that similar things happen on Earth he try not to worry about it. Hell at least these poachers were criminals, he knew full well the stories of magic-bloods being kidnap by governments and religious groups all around the globe back on Earth . As well as the fact that if a magic-blooded did go missing there was little chance of anyone who do something actually caring enough to do so. "Well moving on to something more pleasant, Applejack I wondering if you would want to go out sometime?" Spike ask "Real forward of ya sugarcube, I like that in a stallion. Tell ya want I think got some free time this Friday how about we catch a movie?" Applejack ask with a bit of blush. "Sounds good to me." Spike said with a smile "Well we better let you two get back to work, it seems the line is getting longer. By the way do you know where the crusaders are today?" Twilight ask "They are taking some younglins by Fluttershy's sanctuary today to see about their cutie marks." Applejack answer "Thank you, bye now and take care." Twilight said "See you both later." Spike said as he and Twilight started to walk off. "Fluttershy's sanctuary huh? Do you think she will have any of those stranger animals you told me about running around?" Spike ask "Its possible, Fluttershy has animals coming in and going out all the time as new ones need care and old ones return home." Twilight ask "By the way does she knows about the strange similarities about Earth animals and Gaia animals?" Spike ask "Well she knows that both our share very similar animals that are still different from their counterparts and I have told her what I know, but I don't really know how much she knows about that. She will probably ask you a lot of questions about one she gets a bit more use to you." Twilight explain "And I'll be happy to answer them for her, after all if I'm the first human most ponies ever meet I guess that makes me some kind of ambassador." Spike said while he try to do some kind of marching like walk, which only made Twilight laugh as they walk though town > The Animals > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike and Twilight walk along to the sanctuary talking and making a few jokes even now and again when Twilight pointed something out to Spike. But try as he may Spike was to busy thinking about something Twilight said earlier and while he try to put it out of his mind it just made him think about it more and more. "Hey Twilight I been wondering about something you said earlier." Spike said "What?" Twilight ask "Well you said something about Equestria having a low crime rate." Spike ask "Oh yes, Equestria has probably the closest to a zero percent crime rate a country can reasonably get. Its why we have so few prisons and only one of them is a maximum security prison." Twilight said "Really? How have you manager that?" Spike said very impress by what he was hearing. "There are many different reasons as to why, first there the fact we have legal but highly regulation sex work and some recreational drugs. Then there the fact Equestria has many different types of social programs that make the extreme poverty that cause beings to turn to crime almost non-existent. Plus we have a well funded and run mental health programs which also helps." Twilight explain "But what about those that do become criminals, what do you with them?" Spike ask "It depends on what they did, non-violence crimes are punish with a mix of percent fines base on income and network, community service, mandatory classes, house arrest, or sometimes even probation in extreme cases. But in the cases of violence crimes they will earn themselves a place in one of Equestria few prisons. I should probably add that Equestria prisons are design primarily for reform not punishment so the inmates will spend most of their time in different classes and other programs, including work release ones as well. I also should point out that there are things that we don't do that helps keeps our crime rates so low that other nations do, including your old one." Twilight explain "Really? Like want?" Spike ask "Well for one we don't have mandatory minimums, or three strikes laws which does greatly help. We also don't lock beings who are low flight risks before their trial, in fact most only have to call in during certain times, wearing trackers, house arrest, and if they are high flight risks we place them the local police station jail cells not prison. Our legal defense is also just as well funded as our prosecutors. Also we have no for profit prisons, which are in fact illegal in Equestria. Plus and this is what I really don't understand, we have no well near the structural racism as countries on Earth, and I'm not even sure how that is possible. Until you magic-blooded came about humans were all so similar to one another that none of your 'races and ethnicities' would even count as a different clan of the same tribe much less a different race yet humans make a far bigger deal of this then we do here on Gaia and there are real physical and biological differences with us. I mean I get we have the threat of windigos to keep us from getting that bad but that can't just be all of it." Twilight said clearly getting a bit upset at that last part "I don't really understand it either but then again we magic-blooded stand outside normal humans race and ethnicity standers. In fact I remember some documentary about that said that not only do we have unnatural colors and abilities ,as they put it, that marks us as different but we also don't have any of the physical features and traits seen in any other human race or ethnicity and instead have our own. Not really sure what that means in all honesty and far I know it could be just some new way to keep us magic-blooded down." Spike said "That wouldn't surprise me, oh look we're here!" Twilight said Spike turn and saw Fluttershy, the crusaders, and some little pink unicorn filly in what seem to him a beautiful garden like place fill with all kinds of animals. Some of which look like Earth animals, like those bunny like creatures that the ponies were feeding, while others were not. Like what he knew must have been a manticore that had a cast on one of its wings and was busy bathing itself. "Fluttershy, crusaders how are you doing today!" Twilight greeted them with a smile "Twilight, Spike how are you today?" Fluttershy said as look up fast enough from the bunny feeding to cause her giant breasts to jiggle. "Damn it, damn it, damn it! Don't look at her boobs, don't look at her boobs, don't look at her giant boobs!" Spike scream in his mind as he try to not look at either of her pairs of giant pairs of breasts which due to him being so much taller and her not wearing anything he found impossible as she made her way over to them. "So what bring you two here?" Fluttershy ask. "I'm just showing Spike around Ponyville, but what about? What are you and the crusaders doing?" Twilight said "Oh they wanted to see if taking care of animals was little Animal Lover special talent." Fluttershy said "I hope so, because there only one other talent with a name like that I can think of she could have and I guessing it just as illegal here as it is back on Earth." Spike thought to himself. He never understood how ponies names and talents work and base on what little Twilight told him whenever he ask her he got the feeling that they didn't either. "I think this place may look even better then what Twilight told me Fluttershy. You really do a great job taking care of this place." Spike told the smiling butterscotch mare, causing her to smile. "Thank you, I just love coming out here and taking care of all the animals. Its just so peaceful and a get way to relax after dealing with villains, monsters, and dangerous adventures." Fluttershy said "Relax from what now?" Spike said, clearly very confuse by what Fluttershy was saying. Which in turn cause Fluttershy do look at him a little confuse. "From dealing with villains, monsters, and dangerous adventures, didn't Twilight tell you about-" Suddenly Fluttershy look down and to the side of Spike, clearly looking at Twilight."About dancin-I mean pla-game night?" Spike turn to look at Twilight just in time to see her put hooves behind her back and lower wings. While looking back him with a very nervous look on her face."Yes game nights! We are really big into RPGs, ha ha ha." Twilight said clearly sweating. Yeah Spike could clearly see that Twilight was trying to hide something but he couldn't tell what or why. Probably had something to do with whatever Fluttershy was talking about, which also didn't make any sense. Monsters and villains? What was that about? But he trusted Twilight and if she didn't want to tell him right now then she probably had a good reason for it. "Okay? Anyway while I'm here I was wondering if I could ask you something Fluttershy?" Spike said as he turn back to Fluttershy. "Yes?" Fluttershy ask you with a bright smile "I was wondering you would like to go out sometime?" Spike ask Fluttershy blush deeply and started to mumble something that Spike couldn't make out very well, then a small white bunny kick her in the leg."YES! I mean that would be lovely, what do you want to you have in mind?" She was finally able to say "Well how about a picnic this Thursday?" Spike ask the blushing mare "I know a great spot we could have it in." Fluttershy said "Then its a date." Spike answer back "Hey Fluttershy, Animal Lover wants to know if she can get help with the manticore's cast!" Scootaloo call out "Well it is time to check on his wing and I guess she could help. If you would excuse me." Fluttershy said as she walk over to the young filly and led her away to the manticore while talking to her. While doing this Spike and Twilight walk over to the waiting crusaders. "So do I ask all of them out at once?" Spike whisper to Twilight "I would say yes," Twilight whisper back "So what are you two love birds talking about?" Sweetie Belle ask with a giggle "Oh just something I would like to talk to you three about." Spike said with a smile > The Road > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Oh, and what may that be?" Applebloom ask "Let me guess, after doing with an older mare you want to know what it feels like with somepony your own age." Scootaloo said with a giggle. "Hey!" Twilight said in a way that cause Spike to also giggle a bit "Well I can't say you're wrong but I won't say it like that." Spike said still giggling a bit "Wait, really? You are asking us three out?" Sweetie said with a smile. "If that is okay will you three." Spike answer them "Ya bet it is!" Applebloom shouted "I hope it is okay with you. After all we three aren't world famous heroes like our sisters." Scootaloo said "World famous heroes?" Spike clearly a little confuse by what Scootaloo said "So where will you three be taking him?" Twilight quickly said after Spike "How about lunch and a movie this Wednesday?" Sweetie said "Sounds good to me." Spike answer "Its a date then!" Applebloom said "Hey fillies I think we should try and see if Animal Lover can get her mark by helping with jackalope next." Scootaloo said "I think we better see if we can find Starlight now while these three get back to work." Twilight said So the purple duo say bye to Fluttershy and the crusaders as then when off looking for Starlight. "So any ideas where she may be?" Spike ask "She is probably still with Trixie, and I have very good guess where she will be, and while we are on the subject of Trixie I better tell you something about her." Twilight said as she and Spike walk alone the road "She and starlight are an item too?" Spike said "Well yes but that isn't what I was getting at, there is something I didn't tell you about her but she probably going to assume I did and will probably say something about it." Twilight said "Is it something about that old feud you two use to have? Cause I thought you two were over that." Spike ask "We are and that why I didn't bring it up before but she still now and again does. You see Trixie once try to beat me in a spell casting contest by using a dark magic power item called the alicorn amulet and while did increase her power beyond my, at least back when I was an unicorn, its dark magic drove her out of mind and she terrorize the whole town. Nopony was hurt and sense it was the dark magic messing with her mind she wasn't in any legal trouble but for awhile ponies still blame her and she still feels a bit bad about it." Twilight explain "Wow, that is a lot to take in. How is dark magic even a thing? Isn't that some kind of forbidden knowledge deal?" Spike said "That wouldn't really work, all magical creatures can learn to use dark magic on their own. After all dark magic is just fuel by the negative parts of emotions to make its user stronger." Twilight said. "Like anger, sadness. and other negative emotions?" Spike ask "Spike there no such thing as negative or positive emotions, all emotions have both positive and negative sides to them, and dark magic works by corrupting and twists all emotions and desires to their negative sides. Anger becomes blind rage, and love becomes unhealthy obsession, all just so it user can become more powerful. That what makes dark magic so dangerous and addictive, and while making it some kind of forbidden knowledge wouldn't work. If anything it would just make it easier for beings to fall under its power purely by accident, as they simply wouldn't know the dangerous of it till it was to late." Twilight explain "I think understand that now." Spike said as he thought of what Twilight just explain to him "That was a good show." "I know, how did she do that with that box?" In was then they notice ponies were walking on the same trail they, all leaving from stage in front of a wagon. "Looks like I was right, here they." Twilight said as she made her way to the stage followed by Spike As they got nearer they saw Starlight moving some boxes around, while wearing a pair of fishnet leggings and a red booster that didn't cover her nipples. Helping her was a blue unicorn mare wearing some kind of wizard cape and hat, Spike knew at once that this must have been Trixie. "Starlight, Trixie so glade to see you two." Twilight said which cause the two mares to stop what they were doing and turn around, which allow Spike to see that Trixie was also wearing a purple booster and fishnet legging, and that she had all four of her nipples pierce with barbells. "Hi Twilight, Hey Spike, I didn't think I would see you two till I got home tonight." Starlight said "So this is Twilight new colt toy you were telling me about, you won't kidding when you said he was a tall one." Trixie said as she eye open and down. "Nice to see you again Starlight, and nice to meet Trixie." Spike said he try not to stare at her piercings, something he was failing to do. "So you have heard of The Great And Powerful Trixie, I guess tales of my showmareship and beauty have travel to even other worlds." Trixie said with a smile "Be careful, he does breath fire so all that hot air could go off." Starlight said with a giggle,"So what brings you two around here? I thought you two would be busy exploring the town today." "Well obviously they came to watch the two most beautiful unicorns in Equestria put on an amazing show." Trixie answer "Actually I was showing Spike around town." Twilight said "Showing him or showing him off?"Trixie ask which cause Starlight to giggle "Anyway we decided to head this way as Spike has something to ask you Starlight." Twilight said The two mares turn to look at Spike, while Spike nervously thought about what to say."Well where I was hoping Starlight which me being new here that you may be willing to do something with me on a date?" "Deflower a princess and now going after her apprentice? You..whatever you, works fast." Trixie said with a giggle "Well I guess Trixie and I here could take you someplace for lunch this Saturday." Starlight answer "Sounds like a date to me." Spike said." "Just don't get your hopes that we will rut you, I don't know what you heard but Trixie doesn't put out on the first date. Now come one Starlight we got to get ready for tonight show." Trixie said as she when back to moving the boxes "Sounds like you two are busy, come on Spike why don't I show you some more of Ponyville." Twilight said as she and Spike turn to leave. > The Surprise > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "And then she said that isn't mine dog, that mine husband!" Spike joked, causing Twilight to giggle a little as they made their way back to the castle. "That was a good one Spike." Twilight said as she and Spike walk to the castle door, only she stop before she could unlock it. "That is strange, the is unlocked. I thought for sure that I lock it before we left." She said as she open the door. "SURPRISE!!!" "Shinning, Cadence, Flurry!" Twilight shouted in joy as she and Spike were greeted by two adult ponies, and one very young foal. Although Twilight said their names Spike didn't need to hear them to know who these three were, he had heard enough about them to know them on sight. The tall, for a pony, and muscular white unicorn stallion with the blue was Twilight's older brother Shinning Armor. While the very tall for a mare pink alicorn mare with D-cup breasts and the lower C-cup breasts was Twilight's sister in-law Cadence, the mare who was orphan twice. And of course the tiny bundle of joy had to be Flurry Heart, Twilight's baby niece. "Twilight is that who I think it is?" Cadence ask "Spike? Spike The Dragon? While I be, I can't believe Twilight finally ask to visit Equestria! Nice to meet you at last." Shinning said. "Nice to finally meet you three as well Shinning Armor, Cadence, and little Flurry Heart, but I'm not just visiting. Twilight talk me into moving here." Spike said as greeted them "It is about damn time! I mean hearing about everything you when though, it just makes my a skin crawl." Cadence said with a smile. "So where are you staying?" Shinning Armor asked. "He staying with me." Twilight said while she played with the giggling Flurry. "With you? Does that mean that you finally told him how you feel?" Cadence ask Twilight with a hopeful look "Weelll last night I did bit more then tell him." Twilight said as her face turn red. "EEEEEEKKKKK!!! You have to tell me everything!" Cadence squeal out. "Honey, Flurry Heart is right here." Shinning Armor said. "Fine, we'll wait till her nap time but I want details." Cadence said. "So what its like dating the element of magic?" Shinning ask Spike "Element of magic? Is that some kind of royal title?" Spike ask Shinning Armor and Cadence both turn to Twilight, clearly confuse by Spike question. "Uuhhhh, I may not have told him everything at once." Twilight awkwardly said. "So you left out the fact that you're one of the greatest heroes in Equestia history if not the world?" Cadence asked "What? Twilight what are they talking about?" Spike ask, highly confuse. "I'm sorry Spike but yeah this something much like being a princess I didn't want to just tell you at first, I thought it paint the wrong picture of me to you. I as well as Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash are the bearers of the elements of harmony, most just call all the elements themselves."Twilight said "The elements of harmony?" Spike ask "Six powerful magical artifacts that can combine to make great power, sense can use them it is our job to help defend Equestria from the occasionally monster or villain." Twilight explain "And they do a great job of it! Shiny right they are some of greatest heroes in Equestria history." Cadence said, seemly to boost Twilight image. "So guys fight monsters and villains? Shouldn't that be the military or at least the cops job? Spike ask. "We do, but the time of monsters and villains Twilight and her friends fight aren't the time we can just deal with normally. A lot of times they are just to powerful or have some kind of weird thing to boost their powers. When they aren't then it is normally a case of Twilight and her friends being call to place this happening at before we know thanks to her map table." Shinning explain "The map table this powerful artifact that was created when the tree harmony made this castle. We really don't fully understand how it works but it does seems to call the right ponies for the job to do some sort of important task even if it doesn't seem that important at first." Twilight Explain "The Tree of Harmony, that powerful crystal tree you told me about made this castle? Wait was this map table the table we ate breakfast on this morning?" Spike ask. "Yes, and Spike I know this is a lot to take it, which is why I wanted to talk to you about after you settle into Ponyville" Twilight shoots a glade at Shinning Armor,"But I guess this as good as way as any to tell you about it." "So not only did I start dating a princess, I also just ask out some of the greatest heroes this world has ever know?....I think I need to sit down, this is a lot to take it." Spike said, not fully believing what he just heard yet not doubting either. "You already ask them all out? You humans really work fast don't you." Cadence said "It was my idea, I think a few dates with them will help him get use to Equestria." Twilight explain "Ladies please, I think Spike here is going though some things. Now Spike I actually know how you're feeling right now as I felt the same way once I started dating Cadence, and as for somepony who been there believe me when I said the whole social rank thing isn't issue at all. You may get some minor news stories and gossip at first but that doesn't last long at all." Shinning Armor said as he place his hoof on the now setting Spike's shoulder. "Really? But what about the whole dating far out of my league?" Spike said "Spike I already told you, any mare would be lucky to have you and I'm glad I do." Twilight said Shinning laugh a bit before responding," Thrust me that not really as big issue as you may think, and I'll tell you what Princess Celestia told me and Cadence told me when she found out I was worrying about that kind of thing. If the mare you're dating care about that kind of thing then she wouldn't have agree to go out with you in the first place." "Celestia told you that?" Twilight ask "Well that was meaning what she told him anyway, and it is true. Now when are you taking the fillies out big colt?" Cadence ask "I have a date line up with them for every day of the week starting on Monday tomorrow." Spike said "Sounds like a fun week, and Spike if helps I can tell you for a fact that most reporters and paparazzis care more about the love life of actors and singers then they do national heroes or royals." Shinning said "I guess that does strangely make me feel better." Spike answer Flurry Heart let out a big yawn at this. "Well looks like it is time for somepony nap, which means Twilight it is time for you to spill the beans about your first night once I get her to bed. And I want to know every detail, oh and Spike you just got to tell me everything about what you have plan for your dates." Cadence said as she when off to lay Flurry Heart down "I should warn you, while paparazzis probably won't bother you about love life Cadence on the other hoof won't stop till you tell her everything." Shinning Armor said with laugh.
