Hello readers! It is time for another chapter. You may be thinking, ALREADY? Oh yes everyone, if you thought I was updating fast, you haven't seen anything yet. Plus I wrote last chapter at like 2 AM so I'm counting it as yesterday's chapter and this one as today's chapter. Plus I REALLY want to get to a part I'm excited to write. This chapter is an aftermath of last chapter's events and we get back to some normalcy and humor. For now. I can't help updating fast, I'm getting ideas and the urge to keep going. Anyway here are the reviews!

Galaxy: As I said, darker story this time around.

Glimpse: Thank you. I know how pumped you are. Main reason I'm going a little faster for now is to get to that part, cause I'm just as excited as you are.

Tail: Oh, don't worry he will. In the future.

Aura: Yep, that's Mephiles. Probably my favorite villain in the series just because how different he is from the other villains. Completely dark and evil. Hopefully he will be stopped...

Mario21275: I've said prepare yourself. It won't be a totally dark story however, just has some darker events and themes than last time.

Werewolf: Can you please explain what is even going on? Because I have no idea.

Captain: That's deep man. Thank you.

BADA55: Understandable about the homework. He isn't so much his weakness more than he is someone who Gold is fearful of. Other enemies may get him scared, but Mephiles just puts Gold in a bad place.

Thank you everyone for reviewing and reading this. Now, let's get to it!

Disclaimer: I own nothing that isn't mine. I own Gold, the Eon, the plot, etc. All OCs belong to their respective owners.

Chapter 5: Getting All Ready

---

After Gold had calmed down, Tails and him went into the garage to see the damage. The plane was wrecked, split it two, one half already black from exploding, and the other half on fire. Tails grabbed a fire extinguisher from the wall and turned it to the flaming wreck and fired it, dousing the fire. Gold was speechless as he looked at the plane he just finished the other day. Tails stopped putting the flame out with the extinguisher and put it back on its stand and looked at Gold.

"I can give you one of my prototypes to fix up if you want." Tails said.

"Thanks, it just sucks cause I just finished it yesterday." Gold said with a sigh.

"Yeah, that does suck."

"And damn, I wanted to go to a place to get something nice for the wedding and use the plane to go there. And I wanted to use it for getting to White Acropolis for the wedding." Gold added.

"Can't we just teleport there?" Tails asked.

"Well yeah, but I really wanted to fly there with Twilight."

"I got an extra plane you can use for that. It's a bit rusty and old, but it would work." Tails offered.

"If it works, great!" Gold said finally getting some enthusiasm.

"And plus, we have the world's best boutique right here with us." Tails also added.

"What do you mean?" Gold asked.

"We have-"

"Oh right, Rarity." Gold realized.

"Mhm, she can definitely help you out with something to wear." Tails said.

"Right, we can go there after we clean up this mess." Gold said, heading toward the wreck.

Gold and Tails worked together to pick up metal and put it to the side to be used for something else in the future or just to send it to a scrap heap and get some money out of it. Afterward, the area was mostly cleared out, with some metal on the side. Blade walked in on the two cleaning up.

"So Gold, what you gonna do now?" he asked.

"Well," he said, dusting off his hands. "I plan on going to Tails's to see Rarity about getting something to wear."

"Ah, well I guess I should accompany you for that, gotta make sure you look good." Blade said.

"What's Ensis going to do?" Tails asked.

"Well her and Nia are going up to White Acropolis to see if everything is going well." Blade explained.

"Oh, I see." Tails said.

"Yeah, you about done?" Blade asked rather impatiently.

"How about you come over here and pick up pounds of metal?" Gold said, putting down a piece in the pile.

Blade shrugged and came over to a piece of metal on the ground and easily picked it up and flung it into the pile.

"There, I did." he said with a smirk.

Gold sighed and the three started to finish up whatever was left and eventually got it done. They walked back into the living room which now had Unknown, Rainbow, Sonic, Xavier, and Twilight and Nia and Ensis already left for White Acropolis.

"Well, now what?" Sonic asked.

"Well we carry on like normal. Just completely get it out of out minds to worry about later. We got a wedding to worry about." Gold said to everyone.

"We are going back to my place to have Rarity make something nice for Gold to wear." Tails said afterward.

"Oh, I want to see that!" Sonic said.

"Same here!"

"I got nothing better to do."

"Might as well."

"Oh yay, why doesn't everyone come watch me get dressed in ridiculous clothes?" Gold said sarcastically making everyone laugh.

They all walked for once to Tails's house and went inside. Tails put in the code to open the mass elevator doors and put in the code to get down there, PONY. The elevator clanked and instantly Gold, Sonic and Tails put their hands on a hand rail and held on. The elevator dropped like before making Blade and Xavier yell in surprise. Unknown yawned as they were going down, despite holding on to absolutely nothing. The elevator slowed at the bottom and stopped. The doors opened and, wow, what a mess. You could see balloons and confetti littered all over the place and mysterious empty bottles of hot sauce scattered in random areas. Applejack was by the gaming station with Fluttershy next to her watching. Rarity was probably in her room doing something and Pinkie. Well, Pinkie was on the ceiling. Everyone looked up to see the pink pony bouncing on the ceiling.

"Hiya everyone!" she said from the ceiling.

"Hey that looks like fun!" Unknown said and he jumped a tiny bit and ended up on the ceiling somehow.

"I have no words..." Xavier face palmed at his father's randomness.

Pinkie and Unknown fell from the ceiling and landed bouncing on the couch a couple of times before stopping completely. Gold just shook his head at the randomness.

"Hey Applejack?" Gold called.

She answered back without taking her eyes off of the game, "Yeah?"

"What's Rarity doing?" Gold asked.

"She's in her room, doing something about her dress for the wedding." she answered still playing the game.

The pony in question walked out of her room to see the group that had arrived.

"I heard my name be called, do you need something?" she said when she came out of the room.

"Well I need..." Gold stalled.

"Gold needs something nice to wear and we want you to help us with that." Sonic completed his sentence.

Rarity's eyes sparkled when she heard this and ran into her room to get stuff. Everyone but Gold sat down on the big couch and Gold stood before them.

"If only we had a mirror..." Sonic said.

"I got the next best thing." Tails said.

He picked up the remote to the side of him and pointed it directly at Gold. He pressed a button and now Gold was on the huge flat screen TV.

"Perfect, just perfect." Gold said sarcastically.

Rarity eventually came out with all kinds of fabrics and what not and started measuring Gold's dimensions.

"How is it up there Goldie?" Sonic asked.

"Shut up."

Rarity finished taking measurements and went back in her room and came back out, with speed matchable to Sonic, somehow. In seconds, Rarity had put Gold in a tight suit that was basically choking him, making everyone laugh.

"Rarity, I think you are literally choking him." Tails said laughing.

"What? Oh!" she noticed it and loosened the collar, giving Gold room to breathe.

"I don't think I can do this." Gold commented.

"Yeah, I think it's a little too formal." Blade said.

"How can it be too formal? It is a wedding for Celestia's sake." Rarity said.

"I just don't like it." Blade shrugged.

Rarity, a little frustrated went, back to get something else. For a half of an hour this went on, with Gold trying on some ridiculous outfits that made everyone laugh as they looked on the TV. To say the least, Gold was humiliated. After many outfits, they were to the last thing.

"Well, I don't know if this even close to nice enough but here you go." Rarity said, a little flustered.

All Gold had on was a blue bow-tie and then just his normal self.

"That's it?" Sonic said.

"I like it." Gold said.

"Of course you do, it isn't choking you." Tails said with a chuckle.

"You know what, it's perfect."Blade said.

"After going through all those amazing outfits and after all the work I had to go through to fit it, all you want IS A BOW-TIE?" Rarity practically yelled. "I mean, it's a wedding after all! How can you just want that for the person who is your best man?"

"We all know Gold isn't a serious and formal guy, it fits him." Blade said back.

Rarity just deadpanned and stomped into her room, kinda angry.

"I think she's mad at you..." Rainbow said.

"What I like it!" Blade said leaning back in the couch.

Gold took it off for now and they just talked. After a couple of minutes, Nia and Ensis came in from White Acropolis.

"How does it look up there?" Blade asked while Ensis sat next to him.

"Everything looks perfect! Just a bit chilly." Ensis said.

"Well obviously, it is on the top of a mountain." Tails said.

"We don't need your sarcasm, Mr. Sarcasm." Ensis said.

"No, that would be me." Gold said.

"Hey, where did Unknown go?" Sonic asked.

It was true, Unknown wasn't on the couch anymore.

"I'm over here!" he yelled from the gaming corner.

"When did you go over there?" Gold yelled across the room.

"Does it matter? Tails has the full Devil May Cry series, I think I may miss the wedding." Unknown said, eyes glues to the TV.

"Yeah, don't get him started with that game." Xavier said, shaking his head.

"Well, me and Ensis are going to do some more planning and checking on things. We will see you all in two days." Blade said getting up with Ensis.

Gold started whistling that song that happens at every wedding as they were walking away, making everyone laugh.

---

A sound of an engine roared in the underground hangar. A second, longer roar ripped through the area afterward.

"Tails, you weren't kidding, this thing's a dinosaur." Gold yelled from the cockpit of a plane.

"That was the Tornado Mark II. I fixed it up but then forgot about it when I was able to make the Mark III. She still works fine." Tails yelled from his newer, more colorful plane than Gold's.

"Can it still do tricks and what not?" Gold asked.

"Oh please, no." Twilight said from the seat in the plane behind Gold.

"She can definitely, just make sure Twilight has a barf bag." Tails said with a chuckle.

"I can handle it!" Twilight said, with some uncertainty.

Gold faked a barf at Twilight to which she stuck her tongue out and Gold laughed.

"Why do you keep calling it she?" Gold asked.

"It's what all plane mechanics do." Tails answered.

"I thought captains of boats do that?" Twilight said.

Tails realized she was right, "Same difference." he said.

"Want me to go first?" Gold yelled over the engine.

"Go ahead."

Gold focused in the cockpit at the controls and gauges. He pulled a lever and the plane started moving slowly.

"You have flown a plane before, right?" Twilight asked through the microphone in her helmet.

"Well, not exactly."

"WHAT?"

"Don't worry, Tails taught me everything." Gold said.

"Oh dear Celestia." Twilight said, sinking in her seat a bit.

The plane started going faster down the underground runway.

"Um, Gold, how do we take off underground?" Twilight asked.

"Don't worry. Look."

The end of the runway started turning into an incline. As that happened, a hatch in the ceiling opened up, light from outside spilling in. The plane was going at top speed on the ground now and hit the incline. The hatch was fully opened now and they were going up the incline. The plane's wheels left the ground and they made it through the hole made in the ceiling. Gold cheered from the pilot's seat and he started going upward to gain some altitude. He leveled out and started flying straight, the ground racing far below them. Twilight looked to her side and saw the beautiful landscape racing past them, turning it to a flurry of colors.

"Beautiful, ain't it?" Gold said through the intercom.

"Definitely." she said in awe.

"Uh, oh." Gold said.

"UH OH WHAT?" Twilight brought her attention to Gold.

"WE ARE GOING DOWN." Gold yelled.

They started descending rapidly toward the ground. Twilight closed her eyes and thought it would be the last time she would be alive. Gold, however, was as calm as ever. He just pulled up the stick and they went back to normal.

"Come on, Twi, you seriously thought I've never flown before?" Gold said from the cockpit.

Twilight opened her eyes to see everything was fine.

"We are okay?" she asked.

"Yeah, we are, I did that on purpose." Gold said laughing.

"You massive jerk! I thought we were going to die!" Twilight said catching her breath.

"I would never let that happen." Gold said, with some seriousness.

"You all right there, buddy?" someone said over the radio.

"Yeah, Tails, just gave Twilight a scare." Gold said through the radio.

"You had me scared as well! I thought it was breaking down!" Tails said.

Gold laughed hard again, "Two for the price of one!"

"That wasn't funny!" Twilight argued.

"Aw, come on Twi, I was just messing with yah." Gold said.

"I seriously thought we were going to die back there!" She said, rather angry.

"Alright, alright, sorry about that." Gold said calming down.

"Why don't you try a trick now, Gold?" Tails said over the radio.

Tails in his plane came from behind them and flew forward and did a giant flip in the air, going upside down.

"Don't encourage him!" Twilight yelled.

Gold got a mischievous grin and pulled up to do a flip like Tails did, They were upside down for one second, making the ground seem like the sky and everything was tipsy-turvy. They returned back to normal flight.

"You all right back there, Twi?" Gold asked.

She didn't answer for a moment.

"I think she might have hurled..." Tails said, also hearing the conversation.

She finally talked, "Are you kidding me? That was awesome!"

Gold laughed when he heard those words, "You didn't throw up?"

She didn't answer for a moment, "A little."

Gold laughed and put his speed up to be next to Tails's plane. They started to orbit each other, going in a circle while going forward. Gold made the plane do a roll in the air.

"BARREL ROLL!"

"That wasn't a barrel roll, it was an aerilon roll." Twilight pointed out.

"How do you know?" Gold asked.

"Books."

The flight continued toward the mountains of White Acropolis. Tricks were done periodically and conversation went on like they weren't even in the air at all. They at last arrived at some mountains. One in particular looked more inhabited than the others. It had a snowy cap and you could actually see some low floating clouds pass through right below them. This was the location of the wedding, White Acropolis.
