"I think it's time we head back,"

"I know, let's go"

I slowly open my eyes enough to see the glow that surrounded me and in a matter of seconds I reappeared back in the Twilight's. I opened my eyes blinking several times to get rid of the spots in my eyes. Everyone was still stuck in time like Celestia said…well most of them. I turned my head to look at Luna who seemed to be a little frustrated.

"What took you two so long?" I looked to my side as Celestia moved up to me and looked at Luna with a smile. I probably didn't notice it in Celestia's realm of light but here it was as clear as day, a line of red crossed her face and her smile was one I had never imagined possible by her.

"I had to take a moment to get closer to Ben," Celestia said looking down to the floor with half-shut lustful eyes. Luna's expression went from frustrated to an awkward look of shyness with a hint of red slowly appearing on her. I could feel a small amount of tension begin to form between us all.

"So, you…got to play with him?" Luna asked trying to hint into another question, Celestia gave a small giggle before fully using her wing to cover her mouth from laughing out. I quickly inferenced the question Luna was really trying to get to, but sadly that didn't happen. Celestia lowered her wing, both still had their red but Luna was curious while Celestia was a bit too happy.

"Not as much fun as you had with him last night,"

Both me and Luna froze for a few seconds, I bet we both remembered those events that happened the night before. Luna instantly started throwing questions at Celestia, Celestia just enjoying herself teasing her sister. I stared at them, happily watching them as they both argued like sisters would.

"But…he grabbed me,"

"But you let him,"

"He was thinking of me in weird ways!"

"And you like it!"

"TIS A LIE,"

The way Luna tried to defend against Celestia's teasing was cute, same goes for Celestia taking advantage of her sister's embarrassment. I stared at them feeling this fuzzy feeling in my chest, It was unexplainable but I'm sure I'll be experiencing this feeling more often than not.

"They're cute aren't they" K's voice reappeared in my mind again.

"Yea,"

"It's K here, in case you didn't realize,"

"I know,"

"Which one do you pick?"

"Both of them,"

"Can't argue with you there, hey, when will the rest become active? Dash looks creepy like that,"

"I have no idea,"

"Well, I'm gonna slumber a little, but before that can you tell something to Tia?"

"Tia?"

"Yeah, Celes-Tia, get it"

"What do you want me to tell her?"

"Tell her, "I forgive her," for me."

"Sure,"

"Thanks, see ya,"

He left, probably to sleep like he said. I turned my sight the princesses that were still going at it and walked up to them. They didn't seem to notice me get close.

"So, what if I liked it, is it wrong to like it?" I stared at Luna with a smile, she instantly noticed me and lowered her head down in embarrassment.

"What are you talking about?" I playfully asked causing Luna to fluster and start playing with her hooves nervously. She kept her head down but she couldn't deny what I heard.

"It was just…you know…the moment,"

"I know, I enjoyed it too," She slowly lifted her head with a strongly embarrassed smile plastered over it. I then turned to Celestia, she had that impressive smile from earlier, she was almost the same as her sister, she also didn't like to maintain eye contact when embarrassed.

"What are you embarrassed about?" I asked still holding K's message in my mind.

"Oh…nothing," She teased, making me feel curious.

"Nothing? One day we'll see if "nothing" is truly the case," I reassured her, she took kindly to it and gave me a slight grin, this was new. Her small grin just yelled one thing out to me: "BET!"

"We should get going Sister, we still have royal duties," Luna reminded Celestia. Celestia gave a small look of disappointment before nodding her head and looking up to me.

"She's right, we would spend more time if we could, we hope you visit soon, bye Ben," She said as she enveloped herself in her aura when I quickly remembered K's message. I quickly turned to Celestia before she left.

"Celestia!?"

"Yes?"

"Kusanagi told me to tell you, that he forgives you!"

She looked up with a smile and then back at me. She fully got the message.

"Tell him, "thank you" for me, please" She disappeared and left me with the joy of telling K Celestia accepted the message. I stared at where they both were before something sounded behind me.

"-wanted to show you something awesome…huh? How did you get over there so quickly?"

I turned my sight to all the unfrozen ponies and saw they all returned to their active state. I simply smiled at their sight and they smiled back with a huge feeling of joy filling the room. The ponies that stood in front of me were all familiar to me, but one kept ticking my attention, Vinyl. I looked over to her, she was also looking at me in the same way from before the time pause. Using my hand, I called her over to me, she did as I expected.

"Yeah?" She didn't seem to try to bring up the question from before but I was more than curious about it.

"What was up with you earlier?"

"What do you mean?" She didn't seem to remember, she'll be remembering soon though.

"Why did you jump me?"

"Oh, that! Oh…WHAT HAVE LYRA AND BONBON TOLD YOU!?" She yelled again quickly changing her attitude and demanding an answer. I stood a little stunned from her going zero to a hundred like that. Every pony in the room started staring at us as I tried to my best to answer her question: If there's one thing I've learned in my past, it would be that you never leave a demanding woman hanging…unless she's insane.

"Vinyl, we've been over this already, we didn't say anything about you," Bonbon said moving up to Vinyl's side and Lyra on the other, both trying to get her to calm down. Vinyl gave them a glance of anger causing them to back off slowly, they were lying either way.

"Don't lie to me," She said with a small growl. My mind was telling me to answer her but I felt a strong urge to keep her at bay about what they said. I felt a small grin begin to crawl up into my face as I squatted down to get level with her. She looked at me with a different look than she gave Bonbon and Lyra, a more "Oh, it's you" look.

"Oh, they said…but they didn't say enough," I teased.

"What!?" She immediately asked, backing up into a defensive position. I glanced at Bonbon and Lyra who were shaking their heads and waving their hooves trying to convince me to not expose them. I started feeling like I controlled all of them, it felt strangely exciting to have such power with only words.

"Now look who's in my position,"

"Weren't you gonna sleep!" I thought, hoping he could hear my thoughts.

"Well I wanted to see how Tia would react to the message,"

"Ah…Okay then," Guess he could hear.

"Quick little fact, I can read minds,"

"Really!?"

"Yeah, and despite Pretty Eye's innocent way of being, she was some pretty lewd fantasies,"

"That's…that's…THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR! Thanks, K,"

"No Problem,"

I got so distracted with my thoughts that I didn't notice I had left Vinyl hanging on to her question. Something harshly tugged my leg causing me to fall backward onto the chair from earlier almost instantly. I quickly looked up to see that Vinyl was holding on to my leg with her magic.

"That wasn't nice,"

"Tell me about it,"

"Feisty, are we?" I asked sitting up on the chair and straightening my back, "That's the second time you've dropped me."

"Oh sorry, but you still haven't answered my question," she didn't seem have done it on purpose so I slid off the couch into a squatting position. I reviewed the three ponies near me and reached my hand out to each one, sliding them in closer to me. Both Lyra and Bonbon hesitated using their hind hooves to brake but my strength forced them in. Once everyone was about touching, I pulled myself in closer and glanced one quick look at all of them before I placed my hand in front of them and opened my hand.

"Now look closely, I have five fingers, one, two, three, four, five," I in the softest voice I could muster up, but they didn't seem to notice and followed my fingers as I closed one by one. The opportunity present itself when they didn't break away and couldn't blink. I quickly morphed my hand into a snapping position and slowly let a small "Hush~" flow out of my mouth.

"Sleep~ *Snap*"

I closed my eyes and waited for two seconds before three thuds were heard from in front of me. I quickly opened my eyes to spot three ponies unconscious, one over the other. A smiled appeared over me at the realization that the trick still works and that I didn't have to answer anything anymore.

"Just sleep for now," I whispered picking up the pile of ponies and placing them on the sofa. Once I placed them all down in an order I took a moment to look at them, there was something about sleeping that made everything cuter.

"Wow, Hypnosis, you can use your magic like that?" I turned around to look at Twilight and the rest of the ponies eyeing me. I glanced back at the ponies behind me and then at Twilight again.

"No, I just use my hand," I said wiggling my fingers in front of her face. She carefully studied my hand, using her magic to manipulate it, trying to view it from different angles. Once she finished analyzing it she stopped her magic causing my hand to loosely fall to my side.

"Hmm…that's strange," she said with her hoof under her mouth. I focused my attention on my hand and back at her.

"What is it?"

"I don't know but I don't sense the average magic that we have," she replied trotting over to a bookshelf that contained a cluster of books. She searched madly, picking out a book, flipping a through pages and placing it back, before doing the same to another. I stared at her as she picked out about twenty more books before finally picking out the one she wanted.

"Found it!"

"About time," I thought as she trotted back over to me and the group of ponies. She held the book with her magic flipping page after page, her expression slowly changing with every page she read. It didn't take long for her to stop on one page and give it a small a few blinks of disbelief. I glanced at the page she was on to spot a few drawn images; one was a pony, no detail just an outline, the pony seemed to have lightning all around it and an aura that blew away surrounding trees. The image had a number beside it that read, Population: 0 (Extinct). The second image was a much darker pony outline, this one was a light shade of dark, and had glowing eyes with the other lacked. This one also features an aura, a dark aura. The images number read, Population: 0 (Extinct).

I kept my highly intrigued eyes glued to the book as a paragraph appeared under the images. It went as follows:

Ultimate Form of Destruction Magic: The Fighter and Demon…

The Fighter: In the age when gods shared a world with ponies, there were ponies that possessed incredible power. The Fighter, as Legend tells, had many attributes that allowed him/her to dominate over opponents. The Fighter will always start at minimum power and many have tried to take advantage, yet they had no knowledge of the potential that laid covered in his/her vessel. To protect the ones they love, they tried to not unleash their full power, for the power is enough to over throw gods. Yet the power can be triggered by more than one way.

- The Fighter learns how to control his power, this is highly rare and nearly unachievable.

- Emotions will play an enormous part in breaking the seal of power, more commonly: anger

- And last, The Fighter injuring himself with the power of the "Legendary Blade"

This pony shouldn't be taken lightly, they are known as undefeated and some even considered them immortal. Alas, they were defeated by not one pony, not the gods as many tell, but the ancestors of the Equestrian Empire. They lived in fear of being destroyed and obliterated most from the face of the world, combining the power of the gods and demons. Only one remained, this one continued the war slaying nearly all of the Equestrian Empire but met his demise when encountering the Queen. Mother of the two. That ends the tale of The Fighter but bleeds into the tale of the Demon: the slayer of gods and demons.

98.

I waited for Twilight to turn the page but she wouldn't. She was stunned on the page with her eyes refusing to move beyond the midsection of the text. Wanting to read more I extended my hand out to tap here but quickly stopped when she shut the book fiercely and teleported it away with my hand reaching out to it. I turned my attention to Twilight who hadn't realized I read over her, she was doing her best to rid herself of the facts by squinting her eyes closed and groaning it away. I didn't know if the story somehow related but it did have some hyper realistic similarities.

"Twilight? You okay?" I asked hoping that playing dumb would make her calm down. She opened her eye again and glanced at me and everyone else with an angered look.

"OUT!"

*Poof*

I landed on my back again with ponies one by one landing over me. Every pony landing took my breath away as I tried to muster up the strength to move them but I was bombarded. I gave up and decided to just lay down and wait for them to get off, meanwhile, my mind went back to that book. That book seemed to hold some important information but unfortunately Twilight hogged the book to herself. I gave a slight look around to see that we were just outside Twilight's door.

"Darn, I knew Twilight loved books but not that much," Dash grunted as she crawled out of the pile of ponies and went up to my face which now showed me how it felt to be looked down on.

"Yer right about that," Applejack agreed walking up the other side of my head, I carefully switched my sight between both of them until Flutters flew up over me.

"Maybe she just wants some alone time," she defended, I began to feel most of the weight fall off as slowly lifted myself with my hand to a sitting position. I looked down to notice the five ponies all sleeping and tightly grabbing onto my shirt and pants. Among the unconscious ones were Rarity, Pinkie, Vinyl, Bonbon, and Lyra.

"Umm…Need some help," Flutters offered as she flew over to pick up Bonbon. She managed to cuff her hooves around her but among pulling her, Bonbon immediately bit down on my shirt, luckily only the shirt. Flutters began to pull on her but she was clenched on tight and wouldn't let go. I quickly raised my hand to Flutters to signal her to let Bonbon go and she placed her back down. Once back down she let go and curled into a ball.

"This might be a problem…let me try," I said as reached my hand towards Bonbon and grabbed her around the waist. Slowly, I began to lift her up, this time she didn't bite down but instead he somehow grabbed on with her hooves to my shirt.

"How is that even possible," I thought as I lowered her back down. I looked around for another pony to take off and reached out for Lyra. I repeated the same process as before and actually managed to get her off but as soon I placed her on the ground I saw a light golden flash and Lyra was back on me. It took me a moment to realize I couldn't see and another to realize that Lyra was tightly grabbing onto my head, blinding me.

"This is ridiculous! Flutters, Dash…Applejack?" I did my best to try to yank her off with both of my hands, but she was latched on with her hooves and magic, I felt like I was trying to remove glue from my head. All I could feel was the warmth of my breath on her belly I presume.

"Don't worry we gotcha," I heard Applejack say as I began feeling yanking all over my body. I felt my shirt and pants being pulled in every direction as an idea hit my mind. The yanking continued and I placed my hands under my shirt waiting for the lasted pull.

"Ok…almost there!" Dash groaned as I felt another yank. Almost immediately I flung my arms over my head and pulling the shirt over me and Lyra and letting it go on the ground with a thud.

"Ha! Now…two more," I said I stood up and felt something grabbing onto my leg tightly, I still couldn't see anything but it was obvious Dash was pulling on the pony hooked on my leg.

"Come on Rarity, you need to let go,"

"But this fabric needs fixing," she whispered in a sleepy voice, "no…"

I quickly felt her come off as another loud thud was heard, probably Rarity landing over Dash somewhere. Now all that's left it this one over my face, I slowly lifted my hands and gripped them onto her body.

"Let me help," K said from inside my head.

"Please, get her off, it's hard to breathe,"

"Okay, here goes!"

Like before, I felt my body lose control of itself and fall under the control of K. I didn't know what was happening but I immediately felt a strong pain go through my nose area as everything became clear as day.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED K?"

"SHE'S TOO SENSITIVE, YOU DEAL WITH THIS!"

My mind went cold as I quickly regained control of my body, I was on the ground and Lyra was shouting something at me. She was an enormous blush over her and a few drops of water under her eyes.

"What the hell did you do K?" I thought as Lyra had my collar hooked on tight with her magic and she was still ranting on. She wasn't asleep anymore but she was clearly pissed and embarrassed

"Calm down Lyra, I'm sure he didn't mean to do it," Flutters said trying to slowly pull her away from me but she refused to be touched. I stared at her with the best look of confusion and shock I could muster up.

"DON'T GIVE ME THAT LOOK PERVERT!"

"Pervert?!" I asked as I lifted my hands trying to comprehend what she meant but she wasn't having it.

"TRY TO KEEP YOUR TOUNGE TO YOURSELF!"

I lowered my look and replaced it with a more saddened look to try to change Lyra's attitude. I worked, she started sniffing a few tears away as she hit her head against my chest.

"I'm sorry… I'm sorry," She whispered as I placed my hand over her head and gently pressed it to calm her down. I quickly looked up to see Applejack, Dash, and Flutters giving me looks of worry as I continued holding her there.

"What did you do K?"

"Taste what's in your mouth,"

I didn't pay much attention to it but I did have an odd flavor in my mouth, kinda sweet.

"WHAT IS THIS?!"

"PONY P.U.S.S.Y! TASTES GOOD DOSEN'T IT!?"

"YOU FOOL, HOW AM I GONNA DEAL WITH THIS NOW!?

"Find out, I'll be here,"

I quickly shook him away from my mind and looked down at the Lyra, now that I knew what happened I couldn't help but to apologize.

"I'm sorry Lyra, I didn't…"

She stopped me at about mid-sentence with her hoof and glanced back at Dash and the other before she gave me a small bop on my forehead followed by a lustful smile. I quickly changed in expression as she leaned in once more to my ear.

"I just don't want them to think of me like this, but you still embarrassed me none-the-less you idiot," She said hopping off me and onto the ground still wiping away some of her tears. I just nodded my head in agreement and laid there as she walked over to the Vinyl and Bonbon sleeping on each other.

"Woah!" We thought in unison.

"I knew she was acting, just wanted to see how you would react,"

"Shut up,"

"Fine,"

I observed her as he used her magic to levitate Bonbon and Vinyl off the ground and float them to her side.

"I'll take them home, bye-bye," she finished walking off with them. Dash and the rest stared at her as she went out of sight before turning to me with puzzled stares.

"What was that all about!?" Dash asked going to me, I glance a quick look at her, then at my shirt, all ripped up.

"I don't know," I replied picking up my shirt, torn to shreds. Every pony looked at it, then at me, I had no shirt. My sight quickly changed to my pants as I noticed it had some newly acquired holes and cuts.

"Yeah, I don't think you can use that anymore," Dash said taking the shirt from my hand and placing it on her. It just went right through her and piled up on the ground.

"Oh well," I said as picked myself up and looked at Flutters and Applejack doing their best to awaken Pinkie and Rarity. They couldn't.

"I think we should drop them off at their homes, they'll wake up eventually," I said, both nodded their heads in agreement. I reached down and lifted both of them.

"Let's go! I have so much stuff on my mind it hurts," I said as started walking into the middle of Ponyville, followed by the ponies.

"Hey Ben, you can use some of my clothes, no worries!"

"I don't know why can't I refuse!"
