HELLLO EVERYONE! I am here, once again as usual, to bring you another chapter of Darkened Dawn! Time to look at the reviews!

Flutterlikeanangel: That's exactly how Gold is feeling right now, just elevated because they are in love.

Glimpse: I agree, normally it's either Gold is with Twi, or Glimpse is with Twi, and the other doesn't interfere at all. I don't know, Glimpse, are you gonna get hurt? *trollface*

Aura: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! Wouldn't that be awesome for any of our stories were to be become a TV show or a movie? SEGA THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO MAKE SOME GOOD MONEY FOR ONCE! IMAGINE THE POSSIBLITIESSSSSSSS! ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES!

Alex: OOOoooo it does? *squeezes plushie*

Dawn Plushie: Hi there!

Alex: Aaaaaaand dying of cuteness.

BADA55: I was on the fence about doing the love triangle with them since Blade and Ensis are technically already married but now since you want it, LET IT BEGIN!

Capt: I TECHNICALLY did put them in, 'Unknown and his family'. I'll fit some more randomness in this chapter with you guys and Pinkie. I liked the fatal flaw idea too. UNKNOWNXPINKIE! UNKNOWNXPINKIE! Just kidding :3

Newplayer100: I couldn't help myself with the Aura reference, IT HAD TO BE DONE! Yes, Unknown and Pinkie are completely random! Glad you liked it!

Okay, let's get the chapter started!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything except Gold, the Eon, the plot, etc. All OCs belong to their respectful owners.

Chapter 11: Settling and Tension

---

Now that everything was generally settled, everyone went with their respective partners. Sonic and Rainbow went back to Sonic's house, Blade, Ensis and Fluttershy to Blade's house, Unknown, Xavier, Nia, and Pinkie to their random house they bought a couple of chapters back. However, a bulk of the group stayed at Tails's house and basement, namely, Gold, Glimpse, Tails, since it was his house, Twilight, Rarity, since she had no where else to go, and Applejack.

"So, should we continue our work on the plane, Gold?" Tails asked after Gold had returned to the group talking.

"Yeah, I want to get it done soon, let's get to work." Gold said, walking to the plane.

"And I hope you don't mind, I invited Glimpse to help us. He seems good with machines." Tails said grabbing a tool from a rack.

"I don't mind. Don't mind one bit." Gold basically lied through gritted teeth.

Aura walked by and smacked him upside the head, which Tails and Glimpse looked with confusion at.

"There was a fly on his head." Aura said.

Tails and Glimpse shrugged and went back to talking a bit about the motor and other technical things.

"What did I just tell you!" Aura said to Gold.

"I can't help it if my emotions get in the way!" Gold argued.

"Look, here." Aura said and grabbed a wrench and thrust it at Gold's chest. "Get to work and get your mind off of it."

Gold reluctantly took the wrench and started to make sure the bolts were all screwed in.

"Oh, you applehole!" Applejack said in the kitchen.

"Applejack, language!" Rarity yelled.

"Sorry, I just cut myself cutting up these apples." Applejack apologized, she indeed had cut herself accidentally.

Aura wasn't doing really anything besides watching them work on the plane so he went to go help Applejack. Aura looked at her hoof where she cut it and saw the bright red liquid was coming out.

"Tails, you got some first aid supplies around somewhere?" Aura asked, holding Applejack's hoof.

"Yeah, cabinet to the right." Tails said, not turning around and still working on the plane.

Gold nudged Glimpse, "Told you."

"We both agreed, how did you tell me?" Glimpse asked.

"I don't know. But hey, good catch Aura!" Gold yelled out.

"Yeah, you get that girl! Whoops! I mean you get that injury!" Glimpse yelled as well.

Applejack was blushing at this and you could also see Aura blushing a little as well.

"I'm going to give you both injuries if you don't shut up!" Aura yelled at them.

Gold and Glimpse shut up and went back to work for a second, before Gold pressed his luck.

"Are you gonna kiss it when you are done?" he muttered loud enough for Glimpse and Aura to hear.

"THAT'S IT!" Aura yelled.

Gold saw this coming and started running around the room while Aura chased him around, and Glimpse was on the ground laughing. Tails just rolled his eyes and continued with the plane and Twilight just watched the two running around.

At Unknown's house...

"So, how does this help us?" Xavier asked.

His whole family plus Pinkie were standing on their heads while balancing a glass of chocolate milk on their feet.

"It helps with your inner focus, I guess?" Nia supposed.

"Actually, it's just for us to laugh at." Unknown said with what you would call, a troll face.

"Damn it Dad!" Xavier said flipping himself right side up and catching the glass in his hands.

Xavier took a swig from the drink, since it was really the only rewarding thing in the exercise. Well, it wasn't that rewarding. At first, it was subtle, his tongue feeling some heat. He ignored it at first and started to finish up the milk. He suddenly got a blank expression and dropped the glass, making it shatter.

"What's the matter, Xavier?" Unknown said, still upside down and trying not to laugh.

Xavier was silent then started to run around the house with his mouth open, screaming for some water or something to stop the spiciness.

"Dad, did you put hot sauce in his milk?" Nia said, now flipping herself right side up.

"Actually, that was me!" Pinkie said, taking a sip of her own hot sauce and chocolate milk mixture.

"WATTTTTTERRRRR!" you could hear Xavier yell throughout the house.

"We also turned off our water supply for the day and got rid of all the drinks in the fridge." Unknown listed off.

"You two are the devils for doing that." Nia said, now laughing a bit.

"Well, there is one source of water still..." Pinkie said.

Xavier had run into the living room again.

"WHERE'S ALL THE WATER!" he said quickly at his father.

"There's some in the bathroom." Unknown pointed down the hall.

Xavier looked back at the hallway and ran into the bathroom. He was expecting a glass of water or maybe the jug of milk, but there was nothing of the sorts. Only one source of liquid. The toilet. He cursed under his breath at this prank and plunged his head in the toilet. He quickly took it out when his tongue became even hotter from the toilet water.

"DID YOU PUT HOT SAUCE IN THE TOILET TOO?" He yelled.

"I don't know, ask Pinkie!" Unknown said, laughing.

"Of course I did silly! Who doesn't have hot sauce in their toilet water!" Pinkie said, also laughing.

Xavier continued to run around the house, mouth on fire, until eventually, the heat just got annoying and tedious.

At Blade's new home...

"Luckily, we got a house with a guest bedroom." Blade said, walking down his hallway with Fluttershy behind him.

"Well...that's good." she said in her normal quiet voice.

"Well, here it is." Blade opened the guest bedroom door.

The room was rather boring, with normal walls and an almost entirely white bed.

"You can fix it up however you like, I'm assuming you ponies will be here for a while." Blade explained as she walked into the room.

"Thank you, it's very kind of you to let me stay here." she thanked him.

"It's no problem, really it isn't." Blade said.

"Um, what's you policy on animals in your home?" Fluttershy asked shyly.

"Just make sure you clean after them. And just keep it down to a small roar. And no big animals like bears." Blade gave out some rules.

"Oh don't worry, cleaning up is something I'm used to. I got this whole schedule back at home for when I have to..." she started to explain rather openly, since it was animals she was talking about.

"Okay, I don't need to know when they do their business." Blade said with a chuckle.

"Oh right. Thanks again, Blade." Fluttershy said.

"Make yourself at home." Blade said with a warm smile and left her to fix up her room and unpack.

He didn't know why, but he felt a strange connection to Fluttershy. She was nice and sweet, and... These thoughts were out of his head when he walked into the living room and saw Ensis watching TV.

"She like the room?" she asked.

"Uh, yeah, heads up, expect some animals." Blade said with a chuckle.

"I don't really care as long as I'm with you." Ensis said sweetly.

"Awwwww..."

Back at Tails's house...

Eventually, Aura got sick of running after Gold and just plain stopped. Tails was working on the plane with Glimpse and Twilight was reading a book as usual. Gold plopped himself on the couch next to Twilight and looked over.

"Watcha reading?" Gold asked.

She was lost in her own world of literature and completely was oblivious to Gold. Suddenly, the portal to Equestria opened up. This caught everyone's attention and they walked cautiously toward it.

"Someone is coming through." Tails said, looking at the equipment next to the portal.

"Knowing my sister, it's probably Applebloom." Applejack said.

"Or it could be Sweetie Belle." Rarity added.

"Or it could be something else, get back everyone." Gold warned.

Everyone except him backed up a few steps while Gold approached the portal slowly. He waited and waited, inching closer and closer until he was practically in the portal.

"Who is there!" he tried yelling through the portal.

He was met with something hitting him in the face and making him fall backward. His head hit the ground hard, and knocked him out for the count. Aura and Glimpse got into battle positions, seeing the thing that came through single-handed took out Gold. They loosened however, when two birds landed near Gold's unconscious body.

"Sis, I think you killed the poor fox..." One said.

"I didn't kill him, he's just unconscious!" the other said.

"But still, you could have killed him! Zooming through that strange portal like that!"

"No harm done! He looked like he needed a little nap anyway!" the other joked.

Glimpse cleared his throat getting the two birds' attention.

"Ohhhhhhh, hi there..." the one that joked said.

"See what you did! Now they are pissed off!" the other bird said.

"I would shut up if you don't want to become chicken noodle soup." Aura warned, making them shut up.

"Good, now who are you and why did you just knock out friends out!" Glimpse ordered an answer.

"Let me explain! I am Snow and this is my sister Bright." Snow introduced them.

"No, let me explain! We went through that portal in Equestria and your buddy here got in the way of us!" Bright argued.

"There's no way two pigeons took him out." Aura said.

"We are phoenixes! Not just some birds! Legendary phoenixes in fact! You're lucky we just knocked him out! You see these talons, they could rip the beating heart out of you if you aren't careful! FEAR THE FREAKING TALONS!" Bright boasted.

Snow pushed her sister to the side with her wing.

"Look, this is just a big misunderstanding, we didn't know your friend was right there. We were just curious." Snow explained.

"Look, Snow and Bright, I think you two should stay here until our friend recovers and you can apologize." Glimpse proposed.

"No way! We aren't-" Bright started to say but Snow put her wing covering Bright's mouth.

"We can do that. Thank you." Snow said, looking at her sister.

Four hours later...

Gold woke up on the couch in the basement. What was strange is that the couch was in the workshop where the plane was being worked on. Gold sat up and rubbed his head.

"Jeez, what hit me earlier..." he said to himself.

"Well, look who's awake." Tails said from the plane.

Gold looked over the couch to see Tails hard at work on the plane.

"Where's everyone else?" Gold asked.

"Aura and Applejack went somewhere, and Rarity went to go lie down for some reason." Tails said, not looking away from the plane.

"Well, where's Twilight? Normally, I would be waking up to her watching me." Gold chuckled.

Tails continued to work, trying to dodge his question.

"Um, Tails? I asked where Twilight was..."

Tails didn't say anything again.

"Tails, if she is hurt or missing, please tell me right now." Gold demanded.

Tails still didn't answer.

"Tails!"

"She and Glimpse went to go get something to eat, alright! They got hungry waiting for you to wake up so they decided to go have a friendly lunch." Tails finally said, which he didn't really want to say.

Gold was frozen in his place when Tails told him this.

"See why I didn't want to tell you? I'll tell you this, it was just a friendly lunch." Tails said, knowing Gold was going to be furious.

Gold got up and started walking to the elevator.

"Gold, please, don't go after them." Tails already knew he was going to go to them.

Gold already pushed the button and looked up, waiting for his elevator.

"Gold, you aren't supposed to go anywhere alone! No pony and no one left behind remember?" Tails tried to convince Gold to stop.

The elevator door opened and Gold still walked into it and looked at Tails with a blank expression. Tails dropped the wrench he was using and ran to the elevator, stopping the door from closing with his foot.

"Remember what Aura said! Stop with the jealousy!" Tails warned.

"Tails, I don't care what Aura had to say. Glimpse is trying to get with Twilight." Gold said bluntly.

"No he isn't! They are just friends! Can't you get it through your thick skull!" Tails actually yelled at Gold.

"Right, I'm the one with the thick skull. It's that traitor hedgehog with the thick skull that can't get that Twilight is my marefriend, that she loves me." Gold argued.

"Gold, you are wrong! For once, you are wrong! Get it through your head!" Tails yelled again.

"I AM NOT WRONG! Now, move your foot Tails." Gold said, lightly kicking Tails's foot out of the way of the door.

The door closed in Tails's face, leaving him in a little bit of a shock.

"Love does some strange things to people." he said to himself and walked back to the plane, a little worried at the thought of Gold being alone and him going to confront Glimpse.

The elevator went up quickly, with the silent and angry Gold in it. The elevator dinged at the top and Gold walked quickly out of it. He crossed into the living room, almost stomping. His stomping actually made the rose in the pot fall from the desk and land with a shattering noise. Gold ignored this for now and slammed the door open and walked outside and started to walk to a place he figured they would be.

"My, my Gold. Isn't it dangerous to be alone?"

---

BUM BUM BUMMMMMMMM!

Gold: Okay, seriously? Now you really are making me look like a jerk.

Like Tails said, love does things to you. Plus, you aren't perfect.

Gold: But arguing with Tails? Harsh man...

All best friends have their fights. Anyway, I hoped you all liked that chapter, it was fun writing it. Kinda casual, but don't worry, I got a good plan coming up. Thank you all for reading and reviewing, leave a review please, and as always,

EONNNNNNNN OUTTTTTTTTTTTTT!
