Hi again, Everypony. Sorry for another delay, I've had 6 weeks off school and I've been spending it more on doing other things. I hope you can forgive me.

First over all, I'm calling off the search for Thunder Pony. He sent me a message a while ago saying that his internet device was broken and needed fixing. So now that he's back, everything's ok now.

Second of all, I saw the Comic-Con clips for Season 4. They've made me so excited and I can't wait for the Season to come out.

Speaking of which, for those who haven't heard the news yet, there's a Season 4 surprise at the end of this chapter.

If there are any spelling mistakes or sentences that don't sound right, just let me know and I'll fix them.

Enjoy the chapter.

Chapter 48: One world to another (part 2)

It's been a week since we arrived in the Human world and everything's been going better than I expected.

Everyone has started to get a good connection with this world, despite still being a little confused about certain things here and there.

Twilight and the rest of the main 6 have finally gotten use to their Human forms and were now walking like real Humans. It wouldn't be long now before they're ready to go out in public.

Spike still doesn't have any problems being a dog. Well, except for everyone saying how 'adorable' he is every day. He thought it was flattering at first, but I think it's starting to annoy him a little. However, he doesn't mind when Rarity says it, he could listen to her say it all day.

All-in-all, everything's been going great.

But there was something that concerned me.

By coming to this world, we left Equestria unprotected. If our home becomes under-attack by a force that even the Princesses can't defeat, who'll use the power of the Elements of Harmony to stop it? We're the only ones who can wield them.

England/My bedroom

While everyone was sleeping peacefully in their beds, I was muttering and whimpering as another nightmare haunted my mind.

After a few minutes of seeing nothing but darkness, my eyes started to blink open. However, I still couldn't see anything due to my vision being blurry.

Once it cleared, I saw that I was back in Equestria while lying in the field outside of Ponyville.

When I leaned up off the grass-covered ground, I looked down at myself to see I was a pony again. Suddenly, I felt my head pound like a drum. "Oooh, my head." I groaned as I rubbed my head with my hoof.

My head was banging so much that I had to clench my eyes shut. "Ah…Twi…you wouldn't happen to know any headache-relief spells, would you?" I asked as I opened my eyes slightly.

But when I got no answer, I removed my hoof from my head and looked around for Twilight. "Twi?...where are you?" I asked as I continued to look around for her.

After a short unsuccessful search, I stood up onto my hooves and looked around the area. "Spike? Fluttershy? Rarity?...Anyone?" I said loudly, hoping one of them would answer.

But it was no-use, I was completely alone in the field.

As I was about to go search for everyone, a strange scent passed through my nose. It smelled like strong smoke after a large bonfire. There was so much of it in the air that it was a bit foul. "Oh…what's that smell?" I said as I covered my nose with my hoof.

Just then, I noticed a strange orange glow shining behind a nearby hill. This concerned me a bit because Ponyville was usually beyond that hill.

I immediately forgot about the smoky smell and rushed as fast as I could towards the hill. After I reached its peak, I was more than shocked by what I saw.

Ponyville was completely burnt to the ground, every house was nothing but a pile of burnt wood creating a cloud of black smoke that filled the once blue sky.

It was so horrible. I couldn't move, I couldn't do anything else but stare at the chaos in front of me.

Sugar Cube Corner, Sweet Apple Arches, the Schoolhouse, Town Hall, the Library…it was all gone. My home was destroyed.

"No…NO!" I said before I broke down onto my knees. "NO!" I yelled as I stomped my front-hooves down so hard that I could've sworn it made cracks in the ground.

Tears began to swell up in my eyes before they ran down both my cheeks. I didn't want to believe any of this, I couldn't. This had to be a nightmare, it just had to be. "This isn't real…this isn't real." I repeated to myself as my tears dripped down onto the ground.

But no-matter how much I tried to deny it, it all felt so real. The grass beneath my body, the wind in my face, the smell of the burning wood, it seemed too real to be fake.

I soon came to the point where I had no choice but to accept this and collapsed onto the ground.

This was all my fault. If I hadn't convinced Twilight and the others to come with me to the Human world, if I hadn't left Equestria without its true defenders, maybe none of this would've happened.

As I felt the pain in my broken heart grow stronger, more tears ran down my face. "I-I'm sorry, Twilight…I'm so sorry…" I wept before I placed my hooves over my eyes.

"Matt!…Matt!" a male voice said loudly.

Upon hearing the sudden voice, my eyes shot open and I quickly leaned up on the bed. I then looked around my surroundings to see I was back in my bedroom in England.

"Hey." the male voice asked again.

I looked to where the voice came from to see Spike standing beside my bed with a concerned look on his face. "You ok, Matt?" He said.

"Wha-?...oh, yeah I'm fine. It was just a bad dream." I said as I rubbed the side of my face with my right-hand.

"Another one? I knew they were bad and everything, but I didn't know they were this bad. You were tossing around and everything." Spike stated.

I then removed my hand from my face and looked down at him again. "Nightmares make almost everyone toss around." I said.

"Do they usually make someone cry?" Spike asked as he pointed his finger up to one of his eyes.

Confused, I rubbed my finger around the corner of my left-eye and felt a little wet patch, I must've shed a tear in my sleep.

After I wiped it off, I looked down beside me to see Twilight sleeping while facing the other way. "Do you think she heard me having another nightmare?" I asked without taking my eyes off Twilight.

"I don't think so." Spike answered.

"I hope not. The last thing Twilight needs is to worry about this again. She's probably under enough stress as it is." I said as I gently stroked her soft hear.

"So…you're not gonna tell her?" Spike asked with slight confusion.

I then looked back down at him and shook my head. "Not right now. Maybe when we're back in Equestria, that way she'll be in the comfort of the library when I tell her." I stated.

"Are you sure? You know how much she hates secrets." Spike said with a raised eye brow.

"I know, Spike. But if I tell her now, she'll have more than being in another world to worry about. You understand, right?" I asked.

Spike then thought about it before he nodded. "Yeah, I get it…*Yawn*…Well I'm gonna go back to bed, it's still pretty late." He stated.

I smiled down at Spike and tussled his head with my hand. "Ok, goodnight Spike." I said before I removed my hand from his head.

"Goodnight Matt." Spike said before he turned around and made his way back to his bed.

Once he was back in his bed, I turned my head to face Twilight who was still asleep. I couldn't help but smile lovingly at her peacefulness.

I leaned over to Twilight before I gently moved her long hair aside and planted a small kiss on her cheek; earning a small moan from her. "Goodnight Twi." I whispered as quietly as I could.

I then lied back down in the bed and rested my head on the pillow. With my eyes closed, I waited a few minutes before I felt tiredness take me over.

As more minutes flew by, I eventually fell to sleep and rested peacefully through-out the rest of the night.

That morning: Equestria/Luna's castle

As Celestia's sun rose up from the horizon, the light it radiated shun through the windows of Luna's castle, including the Royal Guard Quarters where Night Thunder and his team rested.

Despite the brightness of the sun shining in his face, Night Thunder continued to sleep soundly. "*Snore*…Don't worry, your highness…*snore*…I'll stop that dragon…*snore*…." He mumbled with a simple smile.

*BONG, BONG, BONG*

"AH!" Night Thunder yelled as a loud banging noise woke him up.

He then looked in the direction the sound was coming from to see Sullen using his magic to hit a wooden-spoon against a metal pan. "Time to get up, Night!" he said before the wooden-spoon and pan disappeared in a small flash.

Night Thunder groaned as he leaned up on his bed. "Did you have to wake me up that way? What happened to a simple nudge?" he asked.

"I was gonna wake you up that way, but I thought this would be a better method. Now enough chit-chat, we have a test to do." Sullen said before he turned around and walked over to his bed.

"Test?" Night Thunder said as he climbed out of his bed.

Sullen then used his magic to open a large chest that was standing in front of his bed. "The fighting and defence test, remember? Princess Luna wants to see our fighting techniques so she can choose one of us to become her personal guard." he explained as he levitated his helmet out of the chest.

At that moment, it all came back to Night Thunder. "Oh my gosh, I completely forgot about that!" He said before he rushed around to his chest and opened it.

Night Thunder then reached into the chest before he pulled out his helmet and shoved it onto his head. "We gotta hurry! I can't screw this up by arriving too late." He said as he tried to find his guard shoes.

Once Sullen got all his armour on, he turned around to face Night Thunder. "Calm down, Night. It's not that big of a deal." He stated.

After Night Thunder had put his guard shoes on, he looked over to Sullen. "Not that big of a deal? Sullen, we're preforming in front of Princess Luna herself. She'll be watching our every move during the test and I don't want to make a fool of myself." He said before he went back to getting dressed.

"But she probably won't even make her decision today. It'll take more than one simple test to prove we're capable of guarding her life." Sullen said, trying to ease Night's stress.

Once Night Thunder got the rest of his armour on, he looked over to Sullen again. "It's not the personal guard thing I'm worried about….I just don't want her to think I'm a useless guard, I want to prove that I can handle all the responsibilities this job has." He explained.

Sullen then walked over to him and placed his hoof on his shoulder. "Hey, since we've been here, Luna's never seen you as a useless guard. I mean, remember the seventh day when you took down that Harpy that looked like a giant bat? You were awesome." He said with a kind smile.

Night Thunder returned his smile. "I guess that was pretty good. And the Princess did seem rather impressed." He said.

"So what's there to worry about? You're gonna do great, all you have to do is try your best." Sullen said as he removed his hoof from Night's shoulder.

Night Thunder then had a small thought about it. "Hmm…I suppose you're right." He said.

Sullen smirked. "Of course I'm right. Now c'mon, we don't wanna be late."

Night Thunder nodded before they walked over to the door and left the Guard Quarters.

Once they were out of the room, Night Thunder closed the door behind him before he pulled out a key and locked it. "Hey, why did you lock it?" Sullen asked in confusion.

Night Thunder looked over to him. "So no-one gets inside to steal our stuff or something." he claimed.

"But what if someone from out group wants to get in there? They'll be locked out." Sullen said with concern.

"Don't be so dramatic, Sull. Everyone in our group has a key to the Quarters, even you have one" Night Thunder stated.

Sullen then remembered that he was giving his own key the same time as the others were. "…Oh yeah." He said.

Night Thunder just rolled his eyes before he walked past Sullen. "C'mon, we gotta get down to the castle grounds before the test starts." He said.

Sullen then followed Night Thunder through the hallway before they made their way down the stairs to the castle lobby.

But as they did, a closet door creaked open and a hooded figure inside watched them leave. Once he knew it was safe, he slid out of the closet and walked over to the Guard Quarters.

When he reached the door, he used his magic to lift a key out of his cloak's pocket and stuck the key into the keyhole. He then unlocked the door and went inside.

Once he was inside the room, he walked over to Brave Star's bed before he stopped in front of his chest. After opening it with his magic, the hooded figure searched through the chest as if he knew what he was after.

Eventually, he found it. The hooded figure gabbed what looked like a metal lock-pick and smiled with delight. "Perfect." He said darkly with the lock-pick in his grasp.

Just then, he heard hoof-steps outside of the door. The sound of them getting louder told him someone was coming. He knew he needed to get out fast, so with a flash of light, he disappeared with his goal.

A guard then poked his head through the door and looked around the room. "Hmm, thought I heard something in here….Ah, probably rats or something." he said before he closed the door and walked away without any knowledge of what just happened.

Meanwhile: England/Southport

After getting changed and having breakfast, we all went to my faverate shopping town called Southport.

Of course, my parents had to come with us. My Mother brought me, Twilight, Spike, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rarity here in the car. And my Dad brought Applejack and Rainbow Dash in his white van.

It was a tight squeeze for us in the car, but we managed it.

Right now, we were walking through the centre of Southport where all my faverate shops were. HMV, CeX (Which is a game and DVD shop, in-case you didn't know), and Game.

But not everything was going so great. Every time we passed a bunch of people, they looked at the girls in a weird way. And if that wasn't bad enough, some of the teenage boys in the street kept staring at them with wide eyes and large smiles.

It was clearly obvious that they were turning a lot of heads. However, none of them were comfortable about it…including me.

Eventually, we all decided to just ignore them and carried on with our day.

While my parents took Twilight and a few of the others around to different shops, I was in Game with Rainbow Dash and Applejack. Fluttershy was waiting outside with Spike.

I slowly wondered the aisles as I looked at the different games they had. "I wonder what's come out since I was gone." I thought.

Just then, I spotted something which made me gasp. "*Gasp* No way!" I said to myself before I gapped the game and looked at it better.

It was called God of War Ascension, the seventh instalment in the God of War video game series. "The new God of War game is out? Man, I've been away longer than I thought." I said with the excited smile still on my face.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash then came over to me and looked at the game in my hand. "Wha'cha got there, Matt?" Applejack asked.

I turned my head to face her and showed her the game. "It's a game in the God of War series." I said.

They both gave me a confused look. "What's the God of War series?" Rainbow Dash asked as she stared at the game.

"It's one of the coolest video game series ever. It takes place in Greek mythology and you battle creatures like Minotaurs and Gorgons. Then in the third game, you get to kill all the gods in the most gruesome-"

"I thing that's enough detail, sugar cube." Applejack said as she placed her hand on my shoulder.

I then realized I was getting a bit too carried away and blushed from embarrassment. "…Sorry…got lost in the moment there." I said.

Rainbow Dash waved her hand. "Don't worry about it, Matt. But there is one question I do want to ask…Why play a game about mythology when you can play one about rock-and-roll?" she asked.

"Huh?" I said in confusion.

Rainbow Dash then handed me a different game and I looked at the cover. It was called Brutal Legend. "I read the back of the case and it seems like a pretty far-out game. It says Jack Black is Eddie Riggs, whatever that means." She said with her arms crossed.

I looked at Rainbow Dash again and handed the game back to her. "I know about it, I have the game back at the house." I stated.

Rainbow Dash gave me an excited look. "You have it already? You've got to show me once we get back." She said.

I smiled at her with amusement. "Don't worry, I will. Now let's put these games back and find the others." I said before I placed the God of War game back on the shelf.

"Are you sure ya don't wanna look around a little more?" Applejack asked.

I shook my head. "Nah, I've already looked around a few times now, I'm getting kind of board." I stated.

"Well I'm not. You two go on ahead, I'll catch up later." Rainbow Dash said before walked away to look at more games.

So with that, Applejack and I walked out of Game and Fluttershy saw us. "So what's it like in there, Applejack?" she asked.

Applejack turned her head to face her. "Not as good as you think, but I guess it's alright." She said as she placed her had on her hip.

"I'm sorry I didn't go in with you, but I don't think dogs are allowed in there." Fluttershy said as she looked down at Spike.

Spike then looked up to her. "You do know you could've gone in anyway, right? I would've been fine waiting out here." he stated.

Fluttershy kneeled down to him. "I know, but I just couldn't live with myself if anything happened to you." She said as she picked Spike up and hugged him; making him groan.

"Well Rainbow Dash is staying in Game for a little longer, so we're gonna meet up with the others. Do you know where any of them are?" I asked curiously.

Fluttershy then placed Spike back down before she stood up. "I think your parents took Twilight and Pinkie Pie to a card store down the street." She said.

"A card store? I wonder what they're doing in there?" I said.

"Only one way to find out." Applejack said before she turned around and made her way down the street towards the card shop.

When Fluttershy and I started following her, Fluttershy came up beside me with a concerned look on her face. "Umm…M-Matt, can I ask you something?" she said in her quiet voice.

I looked at her. "Yeah, what is it?" I asked.

"Well…umm…do you think Angel's alright back at the house? I don't like leaving him on his own for so long." Fluttershy stated.

I then gave her a calming look. "Don't worry, Fluttershy. He's a smart and tough bunny. Plus, I'm sure Harvey's keeping him company." I said as we continued walking.

Meanwhile: My house

While we were gone, Angel was sleeping peacefully on Harvey's bed in the kitchen.

Just then, he heard a loud sniffing noise and opened his eyes to see a frightening sight.

Harvey was looking at Angel with his wet nose right in front of him. All Angel could do was stand perfectly still and wait for him to go away.

But after a few silent seconds, Harvey began to give off soft growls.

As Harvey's growls grew louder, Angel slowly reached under the side of the bed and pulled out a long wooden-spoon. He then did something Harvey didn't expect.

Angel held the wooden-spoon like a bat before he swung it against Harvey's nose; making him yelp and run away with his tail between his legs.

With Harvey taken care of, Angel dropped the wooden-spoon before he smacked his hands and went back to sleep on the bed.

Back in Southport

My Mother, Twilight, and Pinkie Pie were looking around in a small card shop not far from Game. There were cards in there for pretty much everything. Birthday, Father and Mother's day, anniversaries, all sorts.

Pinkie Pie was more than delighted to be in this shop. Everything she saw made her more and more excited to throw a party once we're back in Equestria.

But not everyone was as full of joy.

Twilight had to admit it was a nice shop, but she was still a little confused by why they were there. After wondering for a few minutes, she looked over to my Mother who was searching through the birthday cards. "So…why are we here again?" she asked.

My Mother turned her head around to face her. "I'm looking for a card for Matt." she answered.

Twilight then gave my Mother her full attention. "For Matt? What's the occasion?" she asked as she walked over to her.

"It's his birthday next month. I thought I should get him a card now while he's busy in Game." My Mother said before she went back to looking through the cards.

"Matt's birthday is next month? He never told me about that." Twilight stated.

My Mother then looked at her with confusion. "Has he not? I thought he would've mentioned it by now." She said.

"I thought so too." Twilight said before she sighed. "*Sigh* But I guess I can't blame him, he's been a bit distracted with his job and everything." She said.

My Mother gave her a kind smile. "Well don't worry, just talk to him about it when we find him." She said before she picked up a card and showed it to Twilight. "What do you think of this one, Twilight?" she asked.

But when Twilight was about to look at it, Pinkie Pie suddenly popped up in front of her. "Did I hear you say it was Mattie's birthday next month?" she asked my Mother with a large smile.

"Umm…yeah, it is." My Mother answered with her best smile.

Pinkie Pie instantly grew excited over this news. "My Pinkie Senses are telling me there's a PARTY ON THE WAY!" she said loudly before she shot around the shop to collected party decorations.

As she did, most of the people in the shop stared at her oddly. It was a little embarrassing for Twilight.

"We'll need some of these, and some of those. Oh, and it can't be a party without some of these." Pinkie Pie said as she grabbed a bunch of decorations and brought them back to Twilight. "How's this, Twilight? Too much, or too less?" she asked.

"Pinkie, I wouldn't get too excited about Matt's birthday, it's still a few weeks away. Besides, I don't think we can afford all that stuff you have there." Twilight said as she pointed at the pile of decorations in Pinkie's arms.

Pinkie Pie then looked down at decorations before she gave Twilight a simple smile. "You're right, it's too much. Don't worry, I'll just put a few of them back." She said before she shot off around the shop again.

Twilight watched as she did this. "Pinkie, that's not exactly what I mea-…*Groan*." She groaned as she face-palmed herself.

At that moment, Applejack and I walked into the shop and saw Twilight with my Mother. "Hey Twilight." I said as we walked up to them.

Twilight then turned around to face me. "Hey Matt. You didn't take very long in your store, what was the rush?" she asked.

"There wasn't anything I liked in there, so I decided to come find you." I explained.

Twilight gave me a small smile. "Oh that's nice." She said before she looked behind me to only see Applejack. "Where're Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash? Weren't they with you?" she asked in wonder.

I nodded. "Yeah, Fluttershy's waiting outside with Spike and Rainbow Dash decided to stay in Game for a little longer. Don't worry, Rainbow Dash is tough enough to look after herself." I said.

Just then, Pinkie Pie rushed past me with a bunch of decorations in the arms. "Hey Mattie." She said before she ran around a corner to the next aisle.

"Wow, Pinkie likes this shop more than I thought." I said out-loud.

"It's not that, she overheard me and your Mom taking about your birthday next month and now she's all excited." Twilight stated.

After hearing that, I instantly remembered about my birthday. "My birthday? Oh my god, I can't believe I forgot about that." I said before I grew a small smirk. "So…what are you gonna get me?" I asked Twilight playfully.

Twilight smirked back. "I don't know. And even if I did, I still wouldn't tell you. That would ruin the surprise." She said.

My Mother walked up beside Twilight. "That's not going to work, Twilight. He always tries to ruin his birthday surprises." She said with a playful smile.

I looked at her. "Not always." I protested.

Twilight then rubbed her chin. "Actually, you do tend to do that sometimes." She said before she looked at my Mother. "This one time, Pinkie said she had a surprise for us at Sugar Cube Corner and Matt kept trying to guess what it was." she stated.

"I've never felt so out-numbered." I said in a slightly high-pitch voice.

Twilight and my Mother shared a small laugh at my reaction. "Haha...Well I'm going to pay for this card, you and the others can wait outside for me if you want." My Mother said to me before she walked away to join the line for the counter.

With that, me and Applejack made our way towards the exit, but Twilight didn't follow. "You coming, Twi?" I asked.

Twilight then gave me a gentle smile. "You go on ahead, I'll stay here with your Mom." She answered.

I nodded. "Alright then, I'm gonna go check on Rarity in New Look, she's been in there for ages." I said before I followed Applejack out of the shop.

After I left the shop, Twilight joined my Mother in the line. "So about Matt's birthday, what do you plan to get him?" she asked curiously.

My Mother turned her head to face her. "Well we used to give him presents when he was young, but when he grew out of it we decided to give him money so he could buy the things he wants." She explained.

Twilight gave her a confused look. "So basically you give him money….and he buys his own gifts?"

"When there's something he wants, yes. But his present doesn't have to be an actual gift you know, it can be something like a day out somewhere or a special party." My Mother said.

After hearing that knowledge, Twilight gave my Mother her full attention. "You mean his present can be some sort of event?" she asked.

My Mother nodded. "Yeah. Why? Do you have something in mind?" she asked curiously.

"…Maybe…but I'm not so sure yet." Twilight admitted.

"Alright, but don't get worked up about it. Like you told Pinkie, Matt's birthday is still a few weeks away." My Mother said before they both went back to waiting in line.

As they waited, Twilight thought long and hard about her future present to me. "His present could be an event…interesting." She thought while rubbing her chin.

Meanwhile: Equestria/Canterlot Castle

With the sun now shining brightly over Equestria, everyone in Canterlot was outside doing their daily routines.

Most of Celestia's guards had already started patrolling the area around the castle, and like always, each one was fully focused on their job.

But because they were looking out for unusual things, they didn't notice Jeff flying over them towards the castle. Any of them that did may have thought he was just an ordinary bird.

The more he got closer to the castle, the more Jeff's worries grew. "Ok…I'm here…you can do this, Jeff." He thought with a nervous look on his face.

Once he reached the castle, Jeff started circling around it to try and find Celestia's window. "Let's see, it should be around her somewhere. Just look for the room that's fancier than the others." he said to himself.

After looking though about 12 windows, Jeff finally found a room that matched Celestia's image. "Hmm, this might be it." he said before he flew through the window and into the room.

Jeff then landed on a large yellow cushion before he looked around the room.

There was a large purple fireplace with a black chimney, a blue flag hanging on the wall with a picture of a shooting-star on it, a plant pot standing next to the door with a flower-bush planted in it, and large flat mat in the middle of the room. The cushion he was standing on was part of it.

Jeff was amazed by all the free-space in the room, he expected it to be larger. "Wow…if this is Celestia's room, she certainly knows how to keep it clean." He said out-load.

Suddenly, Jeff heard the door behind him click and he quickly spun around in fright. The door then opened and Celestia walked in, it didn't take her long to notice Jeff standing on her cushion. "Oh!...Jeff, what a pleasant surprise. How did you get here?" she asked with a friendly smile.

Jeff laughed nervously. "I…I flew, your highness. Err…sorry I came here without tellin' ya, I didn't really want anyone back home to know." He said.

Celestia gave him a curious look. "And why's that?" she asked.

Jeff blushed slightly. "It's kind of a personal thing that I needed to talk to you about." he answered.

Celestia's smile then returned. "Is that so?" she said before she walked around to her mat and lied down on it. "Well I'm all ears, Jeff. What is it you wish to tell me?"

Jeff hesitated at first, but soon grew the confidence to tell her. "It's about Philomena…h-has she said anything about me? Like, maybe a while ago?" he asked.

Celestia then rubbed her chin as she thought about it. "Hmm…well now that you mention it, she may have said something the last time she returned from Ponyville. She sounded a little upset." She stated.

Jeff was afraid she would say that. "Oh…I can't explain everything about that. You see, Spike was feelin' a little down because of an…*clears throat*…incident he was involved in, so Matt decided to take him around town to try and cheer him up." he started.

Celestia rested her chin on her hoof as she listened. "Ah-huh, go on." she said.

A few minutes later.

After Jeff finished the rest of his story, Celestia thought about what he told her. "It sounds like Philomena got the wrong message from your actions." She said.

Jeff instantly nodded. "Yeah! That's totally what happened. I didn't mean to upset her, it was just an accident. I wanted to apologise to her as soon as possible, but Rarity told me to wait a little while for her to calm down." He explained.

"So that's why you're here? To apologise to Philomena?" Celestia asked.

Jeff nodded. "Yeah…I just…I just hope she accepts it." he said as he hung his head.

Celestia then placed her hoof under Jeff's chin before she raised it up so he could look at her warm smile. "You know, Jeff…once you get past the rough attitude, you're really a sensitive soul." She said.

Jeff was almost speechless. "Well…yeah, not all my feathers are rough. I mean, I'll fight if I need to, but we're talkin' about a girl's feelings here, feelings that I hurt…accidentally, of course." He said.

Celestia kept her smile. "Well no-one's stopping you, Jeff. Philomena is in the bedroom right through that door." She as she pointed her hoof at the door behind him.

Jeff then turned around to the door before he took a deep breath. "Ok then...here I go, wish me luck." He said before he marched towards the door.

Celestia watched as Jeff walked up to the door. "You must really like Philomena to take this risk." She said.

Jeff then stopped before he turned around to face her, his face was blushing. "H-Huh?"

"Well she'll probably remember you, and no doubt she'll still be a little mad. But yet you still want to apologise to her in person…I can't help but feel that there's more to this than it seems." Celestia said as she stood up off her mat.

Jeff's face was now completely red. "I…err…you see, I…It's kind of a…"

Celestia giggled. "It's alright, Jeff. You're secret's safe with me." she said before she gave him a friendly wink.

Jeff then stopped blushing before he smiled thankfully at Celestia. "Thanks, Princess." He said before he turned his attention back around to the door. "Alright…back to business." He said to himself.

Jeff then slowly pushed the door open until there was enough room in the doorway for him to walk through. After he entered the bedroom, he closed the door behind him and looked around to see if he could find Philomena.

It didn't take Jeff long to spot Philomena standing on a bird-stand in front of an open window.

At first, Jeff hesitated to go any further and thought about leaving. But he knew this was something he needed to do. Jeff took another deep breath before he walked over to Philomena.

However, Philomena never noticed him, she was too busy staring out the window and enjoying the gentle breeze blowing through her feathers.

Jeff noticed this and decided to make the first move. "*Gulp*…Hmm…Ph-Philomena…" he stuttered.

With her moment interrupted, Philomena turned her head around to see who was there, but she didn't see anyone and grew confused.

"Down here, girl." Jeff said.

Philomena then looked down to see Jeff nervously waving at her. But once she saw him, she glared down at him and spun her head back around to the window, more annoyed that it was him who ruined her little moment.

Jeff expected this and sighed. "Look, Philomena, I know we got off on the wrong foot."

"*Squawk*Squawk*Squawk*" Philomena cawed in a way that sounded like 'got that right' while still facing away from him.

"But I'm here to make it up to you. I know it's a bit late, but I wanted you to calm down first." Jeff finished.

Philomena turned her head slightly to look down at him. "*Number of squawks*" she cawed with the glare still in her eyes.

Jeff understood what she said and was shocked. "By hitting on you again? No, that's not what I've come here to do. I want to make it up to you by saying…I'm sorry for everything I said…I didn't mean to hurt you." he said in a friendly tone.

Philomena's glare then disappeared before she turned around to face him better.

"I was nervous that day…a lot of weird stuff just flew out of my beak…to be honest, I wasn't thinkin' straight about what I was sayin'." Jeff said.

Philomena cocked her head. "*Squawk?*"

Jeff grew more nervous. "Why?" he said before he looked down at the floor "...Because I…err." His nervousness then made him stop.

Jeff was now stuck, he didn't know how to finish this sentence without revealing his feelings to Philomena. But when he looked up at the beautiful bird before him, Jeff grew the confidence to say it.

"Because…I've never seen a bird as beautiful as you…And when we started talkin', I was too destructed by your beauty to focus on what I was sayin'." Jeff finished.

Philomena was wide-eyed with shock. When the incident happened, she thought Jeff was just being rude. But now that she knew the truth, she didn't know what to think. "*Squawk?*"

Jeff gave her a kind smile. "Yeah…really." he said as he blushed slightly.

After hearing that, Philomena used her wing to cover her blushing face. She hated to admit it, but she was charmed by Jeff's kind words. However, she still wasn't so sure about him. "*Number of squawks*" she cawed as she lowered her wing.

"I don't expect you to trust me just yet…I just want you to forgive me and maybe we can start over." Jeff said, hoping she'd find a way to forgive him.

After a few silent minutes, Philomena sighed before she gave Jeff a gentle smile. "*Number of squawks*"

Jeff smiled largely. "Really? You forgive me?...That's great!" he cheered with delight.

Philomena then shot him a serious look. "*Number of squawks*" she cawed.

"Just friends? Sure, we'll just be friends, anything else never crossed my mind." Jeff said before he decided to ask her a question. "So…before I go, you wanna hang out some time?" Jeff asked nervously.

Philomena then raised her eye brow in a way that said she was expecting that.

Jeff noticed this and believed she got the wrong idea. "I didn't mean like a date or anything, I meant just a friendly get-together. You know, so we can get to know each other a little more." He said before his nervous smile returned.

Even though she wasn't fully convinced, Philomena decided to give Jeff a chance and thought about his question. After a few seconds, she gave him her answer. "*Number of squawks*"

"Friday? Yeah, Friday's great. Come to the Ponyville library and I'll take you to good café I know. You do know where the library is, right?" Jeff asked.

Philomena was silent as she nodded.

"Ok, I'll see ya then." Jeff said before he turned around and made his way towards the door. But before he even got half-way, he stopped and looked up at Philomena again. "Oh, and just so we're clear, we're not thinkin' this as a date or anythin', right?" he asked.

Philomena shook her head to say 'no'

With that settled, Jeff smiled. "Alright then, I'll just leave you to carry on with whatever you were doin' before I came in." he said as he walked backwards towards the door.

Once Jeff reached the door, he opened it a little and slid into the other room. But seconds after the door closed, Jeff opened it again. "Oh, and I love what you're doin' with your feathers, they look very shiny." He said before he closed the door again; leaving Philomena alone.

Philomena then looked down at her shiny feather before she blushed at his compliment.

Meanwhile in the other room, Jeff walked away from the door before a large smile grew on his face. "Yes, I'm in!" he cheered under his breath.

"I take it things went well?" Celestia said while lying on her side on her mat.

Jeff then looked over to her and nodded. "Yeah, not only did she forgive me, but now we're gonna see each other again next Friday for a friendly get-together." He said in delight.

Celestia smiled at this news. "Well that's great to hear, Jeff. I'm so glad Philomena feels better about you now." She said.

"So am I. But our little get-together isn't like a date or anything, we pacifically made that clear. We're just gonna stay friends and that's it." Jeff said.

"I understand. It was enough to get Philomena to be your friend, you don't want to push it too far ahead with a date." Celestia said with an understanding smile.

Jeff nodded again. "Exactly." He said before he looked up at the clock hanging on the wall. "Dang! I've been gone for half-an-hour! I have to get back to the library before someone notices." He said in panic before he flew over to the window.

When Jeff landed on the window-sill, he turned around to face Celestia. "Urr…can you do me a favour? If anyone asks, please don't tell them I was here." he said, hoping she'd keep his secret.

Celestia then grew a playful smirk. "Don't tell them what?" she said.

Jeff was confused at first, but then realized she was pretending she had forgot. "Oooh…Haha, that's funny. Well see ya, Princess, and thanks." He said with a kind smile.

Celestia returned his smile. "You're welcome, Jeff." She responded.

With their goodbyes now said, Jeff turned around before he took off out of the window and flew up into the skies.

As Jeff flew back down to Ponyville, all he could think about was his not-date with Philomena. "Another chance with Philomena…I'm gonna have to give this my best shot. Luckily, I have a more than a few days to prepare for it." he said to himself before he returned his focus to his flying.

Meanwhile: England/my room

After returning from Southport, I decided to show Rainbow Dash my video game collection. I showed her all my favourite games like Skylanders, the Spyro series, God of War, Overlord 1 & 2, and Destroy all Humans.

Rainbow Dash was impressed, but most of the time she thought I was a video game nerd.

However, I managed to change her mind by playing Brutal Legend with her as an audience. All the action and rock-and-roll was definitely to her liking. What can I say? I know how Rainbow Dash works.

After an hour or so, I gave the game a break and Rainbow Dash went down-stairs to watch TV with the others in the living-room; leaving me alone in my room…but not for long.

Once I got everything ready, Twilight came up to my room and I asked if she wanted to watch some of the Harry Potter movies with me. I told her how much it involved magic and she immediately agreed.

With the door closed and the curtains shut, we both got comfy on my bed and I pressed play on the DVD-player remote; beginning the first movie.

Later that evening.

As the day turned to night, Twilight and I were still watching Harry Potter movies. Right now, we were half-way through the third movie, The Prisoner of Azkaban.

My right-arm was wrapped around Twilight as we watched the movie. "You know, this is one of my faverate movies in the Harry Potter series." I said.

"Really? Why's that?" Twilight asked without taking her eyes off the screen.

"Well mostly because there's a werewolf in it. But besides that, it's just a good film." I explained.

"I kinda like the second one. It wasn't much like the first one, but it had more mystery to it." Twilight stated.

I then turned my head to look at her. "Well believe me, Twilight. These three are only the beginning, the real story begins in the fourth one." I said.

Twilight turned her head to face me. "What do you mean? What happens?" she asked curiously.

I grew a sly smirk. "I'm not spoiling it for you, you'll have to wait until this movie finishes first." I told her.

"Fine, have it your way, Mr rule-book." Twilight said in a playful tone before we went back to watching the movie.

The movie was up to the part where Harry was playing Quidditch in a rain-storm and a group of Dementors ambush him.

The rain-water around his goggles turned to flakes of ice as the Dementors' cold body-temperature froze the air around him.

No matter how much her tried, he couldn't shake the Dementors off his trail. And as he stopped in mid-air to see more of them up-ahead, a Dementor suddenly came up in front of him and started sucking on his soul; making him pass out and fall off his broom.

Twilight was startled by the sudden Dementor appearance and she gripped my arm. I felt this and turned my head to face her. "You ok?" I asked.

Twilight looked at me and nodded. "Yeah, sorry…it just made me jump." She said with a small smile.

I returned her smile as I looked deep into her eyes. I still couldn't believe that this beautiful human beside me was Twilight, she just looked so different from her pony form. But no matter how different she looked, she was still my beloved Twilight.

"W-What is it?" Twilight asked as she looked into my eyes.

I gave her a loving smile before I placed my hand gently on her cheek. "You just…have such beautiful eyes." I said softly.

Twilight blushed slightly as she returned my smile. I stroked some of her long hair behind her ear before we moved in and shared a loving kiss.

After a few seconds, we separated and smiled at each other again. "I never get tired of that." I said while staring into Twilight's eyes again.

"Me neither." Twilight responded before a nervous look grew on her face. "Umm…Matt, can I ask you something?" she asked.

"Sure, Twi. What is it?" I asked as I removed my hand from her cheek.

Even though she tried to hide it, Twilight looked really nervous. "Well…remember when we kept trying to have our special night but we always got interrupted or distracted?" she asked.

I nodded. "Yeah. But I thought we agreed to wait until we're back in Equestria." I pointed out.

"I know we did, this is about something else….*sigh*….After we…you know…do it, w-where would we go from there?" Twilight asked nervously.

I then shrugged. "I don't know, I never thought about it before. I guess we would just carry on with a usual stuff." I said.

"But what if something were to happen? What if our special night forms something that will change our lives forever?" Twilight said, hoping I'd get the idea.

I gave her a confused look. "Twi, special nights like that only seem weird to unmarried couples. But we are married, I doubt it would make an uncomfortable feeling between us." I said.

Twilight sighed again. "No, Matt, you don't understand." She said in a slightly frustrated tone.

"Then what is it? Why can't you just tell me? Is there something wrong?" I asked.

"No, there isn't…*Sigh*…ok, I'll tell you. But if you don't feel like answering, just tell me, ok?" Twilight asked in a calmer tone.

I nodded. "Ok." I answered.

Twilight then closed her eyes before she took a deep breath. Once she exhaled, she opened her eyes and looked deep into mine. "Matt…after we have our special night, what would happen if I got-"

*WHAM*

Twilight was interrupted by the bedroom door swinging open and Rainbow Dash walked in while wearing her PJs. "Man, I am beat." She said as she stretched her arms up.

We both watched as Rainbow Dash sat down on her blow-up bed in the middle of the room. "Hey, have you guys been up here all day? I haven't seen you for hours." She stated.

"Hours? What time is it?" I asked curiously.

"Ten to eleven." Rainbow Dash answered with her eye-lids half closed.

I was surprised by this. "Really? Wow, these movies are longer than I remember." I said.

Just then, Twilight got off the bed before she made her way towards the door. "Where are you going, Twi?" I asked, wondering where she was going.

Twilight then stopped before she turned her head around to face me. "I'm going to the bathroom to get ready for bed, I didn't know it was this late." She answered.

"But I thought you needed to tell me something." I said as I leaned up on the bed.

"It can wait for another night. Don't worry, I'll be back in a minute." Twilight said before she walked out of the room to get ready for bed.

I couldn't help feeling concerned over this, whatever she wanted to tell me sounded important. Why does she not want to tell me anymore? Was it because Rainbow Dash came in?

"So what're you guys watching?" Rainbow Dash asked while looking at the TV screen.

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at her. "What?...Oh, just something I thought Twilight would like, it involves magic and stuff like that." I said.

Rainbow Dash then looked at me. "Well if it has magic in it, then it's definitely something Twilight would dig." She said before she noticed the concerned look on my face. "Hey, were you guys talking about something when I came in?" she asked.

"Yeah, but if Twilight doesn't talk about it anymore, it mustn't have been that important." I said before I lied back down on the bed and continued to watch the movie.

All the while, I wondered what Twilight wanted to tell me. Maybe it was important, she sure made it sound like it was. I wanted to ask her about it, but I thought it'd be best to wait until tomorrow, she seemed a little tense tonight.

With that decided, I just relaxed on the bed and waited for Twilight to return.

That Sunday: My back-garden

7 days later, it was Sunday and it was finally time for us to go back to Equestria.

The last few days were fun. Rainbow Dash and I played some of my video games, Fluttershy gained a close friendship with my pets, and Applejack helped my Dad with some of the gardening.

We even when back into Southport on Wednesday, I took everyone to a place called Funland, it was like a mini-casino for kids. Fluttershy basically spent every coin she had trying to win a toy monkey from a claw-machine, she eventually won it though.

During her search in New Look, Rarity discovered new design ideas that she could use back in Ponyville, she even bought some of the clothes she found to bring back as inspiration.

As for Twilight, she still hasn't told me what she wanted to tell me before Rainbow Dash interrupted us. I kept asking, but she'd always change the subject. It's either not as important as I thought, or she doesn't want to talk about it right now.

But whatever it was, it would have to wait. Because right now we were all focusing on opening the portal and returning to Equestria.

Myself, Twilight, and the others were in the back-garden saying our goodbyes to my parents. I hugged them both as they hugged me back. "Oh, we're going to miss you so much." My Mother said as she hugged me tightly.

"I'm going to miss you too." I said before we separated. "But hey, you can still visit us in Equestria any time you want. That is, if you're ok with the whole 'being a pony' thing." I said.

"We didn't have a problem with it before, we'll won't have a problem with it in the future." My Dad said with a smirk as he patted my back.

Just then, Twilight walked up beside me. "Thank you for letting us stay here, it's been great." Twilight said to my parents with a kind smile.

My Mother looked at her and returned her smile. "You're welcome, Twilight. It's always nice to have a member of the family staying over, especially if that member is married to my child." She said before she and Twilight shared a small hug.

After a few seconds, they separated and smiled at each other.

"So, you ready to go, Twi?" I asked.

Twilight turned her head to face me. "Yeah, I'll go see if the others are ready, I'll be back in a minute." She said before she turned around and walked over to the others.

Once she walked away, I looked at my parents. "So do you have the Star Amulet?" I asked.

My Dad then reached into his coat pocket before he pulled out the amulet and held it in front of me, the small crystal hanging from the chain sparkled like a star. "Great, now all we have to do is get the 'ok' from everyone else and we'll be set to go." I said.

"So what are you going to do when you get back to Equestria?" My Mother asked curiously.

I shrugged. "We'll all probably just go back to our usual stuff. I go back to my job, Twilight goes back to working in the library, Rarity goes back to working in the boutique, etcetera." I said.

"That seems sort of dull, does anything interesting ever happen there?" My Dad asked with a raised eye brow.

I then looked at him and smirked. "You have no idea. Knowing Equestria, something interesting always happens." I said.

"Matt!" Twilight called from behind me.

I turned my head around to see her and everyone else with their backpacks on. "We're ready when you are." Twilight said with a small smile.

I gave her a small nod before I turned my head back around to face my parents. "Well, it's time for us to go. Do you think you can open the portal?" I asked my Dad.

"I'll try." He said before he walked up to a clear space in the garden and held the Star Amulet up.

The small crystal then sparkled brighter before a small beam shot out and stopped in mid-air a few feet away from us. As the beam continued to shoot out, it slowly began to open the portal until it was big enough to walk through.

Once it was big enough, the beam stopped and my Dad joined back up with us.

Rainbow Dash turned her head to face me. "The portal's open, we better go through before it closes." She stated.

I nodded in agreement before I turned around to face my parents and hugged them one last time. "I'll miss you both. Remember to visit us in Equestria at some point." I said before we separated.

"And you remember to be careful when you're out-and-about, you never know when something might happen." My Mother said.

"I know, I will." I said in a small groan.

"Come along, everypony, Equestria awaits." Rarity said before she made her way towards the portal, followed by everyone else.

At that moment, my Dad patted my back. "Stay safe, mate. We love you." he said before he removed his hand.

I gave him a warm smile. "I love you too." I said.

With all our goodbyes now said, I turned around and walked over to the others.

Once I joined up with them in front of the portal, Rainbow Dash looked at me. "You ready to go yet? We've been waiting forever." She said with impatient.

I nodded. "Yeah."

Rainbow Dash then smirked. "Great, so do you wanna go in first?" she asked.

I thought about it for a few seconds before I came up with an answer. "Well, it's better to be safe than sorry, so I think-"

"GERONIMO!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she jumped into the portal; leaving us all stunned.

My eye-lids then closed half-way. "I should've expected that." I groaned.

"Well what do ya expect? It's Rainbow Dash." Applejack said as she walked past me and stopped in front of the portal. "See ya'all back in Ponyville." She said before she jumped into it.

Rarity then decided that it was her turn and walked up to the portal before she turned around. "Farewell, Human world. I will miss thee." She said in a dramatic way before she casually walked into the portal.

As Fluttershy walked up to the portal, Angel's head popped out of her backpack. Fluttershy turned her head around to see the frightened look on his face. "It's ok, Angel. Just stay in the bag and hold tight." She said.

Angel then reached into the bag before he pulled out a small crash-helmet and strapped it onto his head. After that, he dove back into the bag and zipped it up from the inside.

Fluttershy looked up at the portal with an unsure face before she looked at me. "Are you sure this thing is safe?" she asked.

I gave her a comforting smile. "Of course it is. It got you here safely last time, didn't it?" I said.

"I…I guess." Fluttershy said.

"It'll be ok, Fluttershy. Just close your eyes and leap forward. You'll be back in Ponyville in no-time." Twilight said in a soft tone.

Fluttershy turned her attention back to the portal and gulped loudly. "Ok." She said before she closed her eyes tightly.

"A hop…skip…and a JUMP!" Fluttershy said loudly before she leaped into the portal.

Twilight and I smiled proudly at Fluttershy's bravery. "Remind me to say something to her when we get back." I said to Twilight.

Just then, Pinkie Pie hopped past us. "Oh! Me next, me next!" she said with excitement before she stopped in front of the portal.

"Cannonball AGAIN!" Pinkie Pie cheered loudly before she jumped into the portal in a cannonball form; leaving only me, Twilight, and Spike left.

Once we knew it was our turn, Twilight and I looked at each other. "You ready?" I asked.

Twilight nodded. "Yeah, I'm ready. Let's go home." She answered.

With that, we both turned our attention back to the portal and walked over to it.

As the three of us stopped in front of it, we turned around to look at my parents and my home world for the last time.

Twilight then noticed the troubled look on my face and placed her hand on my shoulder. "Hey, are you alright, honey?" she asked.

I looked around my old home as I answered her. "I just got a funny feeling that…that I'll never see this place again." I confessed.

Twilight smiled sweetly before she planted a kiss on my cheek. "Don't worry, you will…one day." she said.

I then turned my head to face her and returned her smile. "Thanks, Twi." I said before we looked over to my parents.

My Mother and Dad waved goodbye to us before we waved back. "We love you." My Mother called as she kept waving.

"I love you too." I called back before we stopped waving.

After that, we turned around to the portal and I took a deep breath. "Here we go!" I said loudly before I jumped into the portal along-side Twilight and Spike.

After a few seconds, the portal closed and whatever was left of it disappeared in a small flash; leaving the back-garden silent.

My Mother and Dad then looked at each other before they turned around and made their way back to the house. My Dad comforted my Mother the whole way.

Meanwhile: Equestria/Ponyville Library

Jeff and Peewee were in the living-room playing Go-Fish.

They were both sitting in the centre of the room with a fan of cards in their wings. "Got any fives?" Peewee asked.

Jeff searched his fan until he found at least one card with a 5 on it. "Yeah." He answered before he pulled it out and gave it to Peewee.

While Peewee wasn't looking, Jeff slowly reached behind his back before he pulled out and extra card and added it to his fan; making him grin deviously.

The room was quiet, the only sound that could be heard was their silent breathing. But the silence was suddenly broken by the portal opening right against the wall of the room; startling Jeff and Peewee.

They both dropped their cards and quickly looked over to it with shock. "What the hay?!" Jeff said loudly.

Just before they could do anything else, Rainbow Dash shot through the portal and landed on the floor right in front of them. "Rainbow Dash?...I thought she was in the Human world." Jeff stated before he looked at the portal again.

As the portal rippled wildly, Peewee's eyes widened. "Oh…MOVE!" he yelled before he and Jeff quickly flew out of the way.

At that moment, the rest of us shot through the portal and landed on the hard floor; knocking us all uncurious.

A little while later, my eyes blinked open until I was fully awake. My eye-sight was bleary, but I knew it would clear soon. "Matt! You ok, buddy?" I heard a voice say.

I then rolled my head to the left until I saw a bleary figure standing in front of my face. When my vision cleared, I saw that it was Jeff with a concerned look on his face. "Wicked wipe-out, dude. You ok?" he asked.

I groaned as I leaned up. "I've been better." I said before I looked around the room. "Where's the portal?" I asked.

"It closed a few minutes ago." Peewee answered.

"That's good, we don't want it open for too long." I said before lifted up my 'hands' only to see a pair of green hooves.

Once I saw this, I looked down at my body to see I was a Pegasus again. And I'll tell you this, I was actually happy to be back in my Pony form. "I'm a pony again! Yes!" I cheered as I flew up into mid-air.

That's when I realised I had my wings back. I quickly turned around and smiled. "Oh you don't know how much I've missed you two." I said to them before I floated back down.

Once I landed back on the floor, I looked down at Jeff and Peewee. "Guys!" I said with joy before I picked them both up and hugged them tightly. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually missed you two, I even missed your constant arguing." I said.

Jeff and Peewee were struggling to breath. "Great…glad to see you too…now let us go!" Jeff said as his eyes were bulging out of out of his head.

"Ok." I simply said before I released them and they fell to the floor.

While they were regaining their breath, I wondered what happened to Twilight and the others were before I looked over to them to see they too were ponies again. To be honest, I think they look better as ponies.

I walked over to Twilight's unconscious body before I nudged her face with my muzzle. "Twi? Are you alright, sweet-heart?" I asked softly.

After a few seconds, Twilight's eyes started to open before she looked up at me. "Matt? Y-You're a pony again…does that mean I'm a pony too?" she asked weakly.

I smiled and nodded. "Yeah, Twi. You're my gorgeous Unicorn again." I said.

Twilight smiled sweetly at me before I nuzzled my head against her's.

However, our moment was soon ruined by the others groaning as they woke up. "Ah, my head feels like it was hit by a brick." Rainbow Dash said as she rubbed her head with her hoof.

"Mine feels like it was hit with a ton of bricks." Applejack stated before she opened her eyes to see Rainbow Dash back in her pony form. "Rainbow! You're a pony again!" she said while pointing her hoof at her.

Rainbow Dash quickly looked down at her body to see she was right. "YES! Finally, the Dash is back!" she cheered.

She then turned her head around to see her wings. "My wings!" she said with joy before she started stroking them with her hoof. "It's ok, mamma's back. I've missed you guys, did you miss me?" she said to them.

Applejack just rolled her eyes at Rainbow's act.

Meanwhile, the others were looking at their bodies and were more than glad to be ponies again. "Oh it feels so good to have my true beauty back." Rarity said.

"Well I think it feels good to finally be home." Fluttershy stated with a small smile.

"I'm right with ya on that one, sister." Pinkie Pie said as she hopped over to her.

Spike then stood up off the floor before he looked down at himself to see he was a dragon again. "Now this is much better. I'd rather be a dragon than a dog any day." he stated with a pleased smile.

I heard what Spike said and gave him a friendly smirked. "And to be honest, I think you look much better as a dragon." I said.

"Yeah, I think so too." Spike said as he came over to me and Twilight.

Twilight slowly stood up onto her hooves before she looked around the room with a wondering look on her face. "Does Shining Armor even know we're back?" she asked out-loud.

At that moment, Jeff flew over to her and landed in front of her. "He's not here, he went back to Canterlot a few hours ago. Somethin' about an important meetin' with the Princess." He stated.

Twilight looked down at him with a raised eye brow. "Did he say when he was coming back?" she asked.

Jeff nodded. "Yeah, some time tomorrow mornin'. He left the Library in our care." he said.

Twilight was both surprised and disappointed that her brother wasn't here to greet her. "Oh…well, I guess we could write him a litter telling him we're back." She said before she turned her head to face Spike. "Spike, could you fetch me a quill and paper please?" she asked.

"Sure thing, Twilight." Spike said before he turned around and walked away to get what she requested.

While he was doing that, Rarity came over to us. "Well Matthew, I must admit you certainly know how to show six girls a good time." She said with a cheeky smile.

I looked at her and smiled back. "Really? You enjoyed it that much?" I asked.

Rainbow Dash then flew over to us. "Well dah! Who else could take us on a trip like that? I mean seriously, another world? That was awesome." She said as she landed beside me.

"I'll admit, I had my doubts, but you stuck to your word the whole way, sugar-cube." Applejack said as she came over to us.

"I liked your home world too. Your chickens were lovely and your dog was sooo cute, not to mention all those fluffy little bunnies that were on the field near your house." Fluttershy said as she joined us.

"Well I loved everything about your world, especially that town we went to. I loved the stores, the music, those old smelly guys that kept asking us for a penny, all of it!" Pinkie Pie said as she too joined us.

A pleased smile then grew on my face, I was more than glad to hear they liked the trip. "Thanks guys, I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves." I said before I gave them a humble look. "You know…if it's alright with Twilight, you guys can stay over tonight and go home in the morning. That is…if you want to." I said.

They all looked at each other before they looked back to me. "Well I would be more than happy to stay over, but like you just said, it's Twilight's decision." Rarity said.

With that, we all looked at Twilight to receive her answer. "I guess one more night together wouldn't hurt." She said with a small smile.

We all smiled at her answer. "Then you can count us in." Rainbow Dash said before everyone else nodding in agreement.

I smiled with delight. "Awesome, sleep over!" I cheered before I looked at Twilight with a serious face. "Not to be confused with slumber party, slumber parties are for girls." I said.

Twilight then grew a playful smile. "Well in that case, I guess we're just gonna have to throw you out." She said.

"What?" I asked with a raised eye brow.

Twilight giggled. "Out you go." She said before he horn glowed and I was lifted up into the air.

"Hey! This isn't funny, let me down! Come on, Twi." I whined as she hovered me towards the front-door.

Twilight couldn't help but laugh in amusement before she looked up at her horn. "Oh magic, how I've missed you." she said out-loud.

Later that night

After being allowed back into the library, Twilight & I wrote a letter to Shining Armor and had Spike send it up to him. Once that was done, to started getting things ready for the sleep over.

We only worked everything out. Me, Twilight, Spike, Jeff, and Peewee were going to sleep in our usual places, and everyone else was going to sleep in sleeping-bags in the living-room.

The rest of the main 6 were all in their sleeping bags getting ready to go to sleep. Twilight had already said goodnight to them, so all that was left was for me to say it.

I stood in the doorway watching the others get comfy in their sleeping-bags. "Is everyone comfy?" I asked.

They all looked at me and nodded.

"Good." I said before I looked over to Fluttershy. "Are you ok there, Fluttershy? You know you can sleep upstairs with me and Twilight if you get frightened." I said.

Fluttershy gave me a thankful smile. "Thanks, Matt. But I'll be fine, especially with Angel and Mr Monkey with me." she said while holding the toy monkey she won from Funland in her hooves.

I smiled. "Ok." I said before I looked over to the others. "So does anyone need anything before we go to sleep?" I asked.

They all shook their heads to say 'no'

"Alright then, goodnight everyone." I said.

"Goodnight Matt." they all said at the same time before they lied down in their sleeping-bags and closed their eyes to fall asleep.

With that taken care of, I walked out of the front-room before I went up the stairs and saw Twilight lying in our bed. Spike, Jeff, and Peewee were already asleep in their basket.

I walked over to my side of the bed before I got into it and pulled the covers over myself. But as soon as I laid my head down on the pillow, Twilight rolled over and looked at me. "Hey." She greeted in a tired voice.

I turned my head to face her and smiled. "Hey." I said back.

"Are you as glad to be back here as I am?" Twilight asked.

I nodded slightly. "Yeah…I mean, I do miss England sometimes, but I'd rather be here with you guys." I said.

Twilight smiled sweetly before she nudged up to me and wrapped her arms around me. "Well we're back now, and you'll always be with us….especially me." she said before she planted a kiss on my cheek.

I smiled lovingly at her before I gave her a small kiss back. "I love you, Twi." I said.

"I love you too, Matt." Twilight said as her eyes slowly closed.

As she fell asleep beside me, I gently stroked her hair with my hoof and enjoyed her warmth. It wasn't long before I could feel myself drifting off to sleep and I yawned. "*Yawn*…T-Twi?"

"Uh-hmm?" Twilight hummed in her sleep.

"Wh-…What was it you wanted to tell me a few days ago? You know, before Rainbow Da-…" I was so sleepy that I couldn't finish.

"What?" Twilight asked with her eyes still closed.

"N-Never-mind." I said before I eyes closed and I let myself fall to sleep with Twilight.

We all slept calmly and peacefully through-out the night. No nightmares, no late-night noises waking us up, no disturbances of any kind. And why did we feel so peaceful? Because we all knew we were finally home.

Hope you enjoyed the chapter.

First of all, I think it's probably best to do this for safety reasons. I don't own MLP or Equestria Girls.

Also, sorry I had to rush the Human World thing. I was getting a bit bored of it and I wanted to get on to the good part, which will be in the next chapter. Don't worry, it'll have a bit more excitement in it.

Pony News: To those who don't already know, Season 4 is expected to premiere November 23rd this year. I'm so excited for this.

Also, Meghan McCarthy has stated that we'll see some returns of old friends or enemies in Season 4. I wonder who they could be, here's hoping Gilda or the Diamond Dogs.

Please remember to review.

Next chapter will be up as soon as it can.
