"…and that's how I met Fluttershy."

Princess Luna's moon began to rise over Equestria while her sister's sun finished setting, signaling the end of the working day for all of the ponies in Ponyville. Stallions and mares took to the streets of the town and headed their separate ways. Some headed home for the evening while others went elsewhere to gather with friends. This included five certain residents.

"Come on, Gryff, we're going to be late if you don't pick hurry it up!" Naruto ushered him as he walked through the crowded streets of Ponyville.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" the Griffin stated, "You sure these boys of yours aren't going to care? Considering I'm still getting funny looks from the citizens in town."

"Trust me it won't be an issue."

After maneuvering their way through the streets filled with other ponies, Naruto and Gryff Armor arrived at their destination, the Frothy Steel-toed boot.

The Griffon was puzzled, "You guys meet here?"

"Yeah, what about it?"

"Not the best name for an establishment."

"Look I could care less about the name as long as what the place serves is passable."

With that statement, he entered the tavern with Griffon following behind.

Upon entering the establishment, the ripe smell of alcohol filled both of their lungs. The lighting of the tavern was fairly dim, but it was still a warm and welcoming environment for all the ponies and other creatures.

"There the boys be at," waving his hand in the air to get the attention of his comrades. They raised a hand to acknowledge him as he walked over. "The streets were filled with kiosk owners trying to get home, but knowing you lot you probably already start the party without me."

Catching up with his old time friend Griffon looked to see the stallions seated around the table. One of them he recognized as Applejack's big brother from the whole Cider incident. The others he were not familiar with. One was a Pegasus and the others a tan stallion with a chocolate brown mane and a light blue unicorn with a frizzled mane.

"This is Gryffindor, who likes to be known as Griff. Griff this is Big Mcintosh who I'm sure you remember, the Pegasus is Thunderlane, the Unicorn is Pokey Pierce, and the Earth Pony is Caramel. "

"Leave it to the cap'n to keep his extravagant lifestyle flowing with oddities."

Naruto murmured a 'piss off' to Thunderlane's comment.

"So you be the boys he's been telling me about?"

"We be newbie." Caramel replied. "What do you drink, Gryff?"

"Depends…what's the strongest thing you got?" Gryff, proud and cocky was already ready to prove his merit when it came to drink it.

"Got it, and the usual for you, Naruto?" Pokey asked as he was about to trot away.

"One Dragon's breath with a side of Pinkie Deluxe." He said as he took his seat and indicated for Gryff to take a seat.

"Pinkie Deluxe?" he couldn't help but asked. From what he could see of Naruto's party girl marefriend she seemed like a hyperactive kid with the only adult thing about her being her body. He would have wondered if the pony was into those tastes before remembering that the high-class and canterlotian type was his choice for alpha. 'Guess Bits has the patience for that high maintenance stuff.'

"People using product placement or whatever they can to cash in on the nation's craze for our status. Princess Celestia is still working on helping us settle the patent for our names, trademarks and all that stuff. Unfortunately the whole thing is rather messy and some of these money grubbing vultures are quick to slap on our likeness or name to anything. It wouldn't interest you, but several hair care companies have already quickly tried to market off conditioning and dyes that is supposed to make your mane like an Alicorns. Princess Luna is a rather hot commodity in several social circles, among those being with gothic tastes or those who worshipped her during her former possession."

"Then there are those like the Nightmare Children." Pokey sniffed with disdain. "Downright fools. Even now our nation is still recovering from their actions the past few years. None more than Ponyville has directly suffered as a result."

"We're not here to talk about that." Caramel quickly ushered, realizing how quickly the situation was becoming tense. "We're here to party right?" He suggested as he checked if the others wanted the usual.

"Alright….well, what do you guys do here?" Gryff asked.

Naruto was the first to reply, "We usually meet once or twice a month to just meet and hang out. We also have frequent card games."

"I see," Gryff remarked, still trying to understand the group. With the drinks soon placed in front of them the group began to have their discussion.

"Alright time to kick things off. How have things been for you Pokey?"

"Yeah, how are things goin' fer ya?" Big Mac asked.

Taking a sip of his drink and letting out an unusual sound that came from drinking his bittersweet liquor, he started, "Well, managed to net myself a new job. I guess my luck is getting better."

"The flower shop right?" Big Mcintosh asked.

Pokey nodded, "Yup, started a couple of days ago as a cashier. Not the most luxurious job, but it helps pay the bills."

"And I suppose a certain mare with raspberry mane had nothing to do with you choosing your job there?"

Pokey sheepishly smiled at the blond's comment, "What can I say? I enjoy the company of an eloquent mare."

Roseluck did have a good head on her shoulders. Managing the finances and being the most responsible among her three sisters.

Caramel was the first to speak, "Roseluck? Pale yellow coat? Where's a flower in her ear? Since when were you pining for her?"

"Well, I may have performed a heroic intervention when those nightmare children attacked our town. She took me out for lunch as a thank you and we hit it off." Pokey seemed flustered.

"Well your single and she's single right? What's the hold up? " Gryff asked, down the ember blazed scotch. From what he knew of the gender ratio of this town this Roseluck should have been jumping at the chance for an available male unless she was flying under the radar so to speak.

The blue unicorn cleared his throat before he replied, "Well, if I plan on making the first step then I need to wow her." Especially since a certain somepony has raised the stakes so much.

"Man, that is way too much pressure especially with the possibility of things going wrong. That's why I'm glad I found my Sassaflash good and early."

"That mare has the patience of a saint. I don't know many mares who could put up with a stallion who can break the foundation of a house by face planting into a single beam."

"One time! One time and no one ever lets it go!" Caramel was becoming defensive.

"Speaking of developments when are you going to ask Cheerilee out Mac?" Naruto suddenly changed gears, having decided poor Caramel had suffered enough.

"Ah don't know what yer talking about." That expression conveyed Mac was not being very forthcoming.

"Don't play coy with me Mcintosh. You and Cheeri hit it off quite well and on good faith I believe she might fancy you a bit. You're disappointing the poor mare by not showing any interest."

"It'll pass. A nice and educated mare like Cheerilee wouldn't want no farm colt like me long term anyhow."

"Don't be a foal. Stallion up and start exploring your options. Ponies are starting to wonder if you're a colt cuddler since you're ignoring all the haunches being thrown your way." Thunderlane's comment did little but turn Mac's ire onto him.

"And that is why you're alone mouth…" Naruto remarked.

"Well we all can't be you now can we mister marekiller."

Naruto leaned his forehead into his palm and sighed.

"Uh-oh Bits. Looks like its your town. So spill. Tell us the juicy bits of your herd."

"Boys or no boys there are somethings a stallion keeps to himself.

"Aaw come on Naruto you're always deflecting whenever we bring up the subject. You can't keep all the juicy bits to yourself."

"Well if we're having story time I suppose we could always talk about the day of the Festival incident. A lot of ponies wish to hear a firsthand account from the side of the elements, but the information was too sensitive. With the Nightmare finally gone I suppose it wouldn't hurt to share the tail." With that Naruto began to recount the day that changed everything.

"The town was hustling and bustling. Everypony was excited and putting on the finishing touches for the celebration. I was strolling down the streets on the lookout for the festival representative that would be checking up on things. I had no idea I would literally be running into her."

"Twilight Sparkle…and with her was Spike the Dragon. At that time it was like a simple meet and greet you know. A cute and studious mare if not a bit unfriendly. She's really changed from when I first met her. The Twilight of back then would in no way put up with the antics of her fellow Elements. In order to apologize for bumping into her I of course offered to chauffeur her around town and help her complete checking up on everything for the festival."

"Aah yes, not too long after ya three visited the farm if ah'm remembering correctly." Naruto nodded in response to Big Mac's recollection. "Applebloom used that pout of hers to convince Twilight to stay."

"A filly who knows how to pull at one's heartstrings is a dangerous opponent. Grows up into an even more dangerous mare." Pokey sagely suggested.

Big Mac frowned at that. He didn't want or need any thoughts of sweet little Bloom growing up into a mare. It had been hard enough for his big brother instinct when Applejack grew up, but Bloom was comparably more innocent than Applejack was at her age and he couldn't help but relish in his role as big brother.

"I believe the two of them showed curiosity to the nature of my bond with the others. With Applejack hosting I recounted that day. The one where you and AJ saved me from those Timberwolves Mac."

"Wait…what?" Gryff was trying to wrap his head around it. "You needed to be saved?"

"This was before I even met you Gryff. I was still rather weak back then and had a long way to go when it came to training."

Once more the image of the past came to his mind.

This was not a moment he could forget so easily.

"After that we ran into Rainbow Dash. Suffice to say her greeting was carefully calculated and well…in Rainbow Dash Fashion."

-In

"Is it true? Can she do a Rainboom?" Caramel asked as Naruto nodded.

"One day if you're lucky you'll see it." Where did he leave off yet? Oh right. "We finally made our way to the boutique and there she was hard at work with that wearing one of her fantastic dresses."

"Rarity was hard at working preparing for the festival. She practically chased Twilight off with her enthusiasm about being from Canterlot and such. It was an interesting experience so to speak."

The group listened in carefully as Naruto went on to the part where the trio had met Fluttershy. And continuing the story up to the Golden Oaks Library having gotten to his proposal to Rarity.

"My actual proposal of course turned out better, but I would not exchange the times we had for anything. After being rejected yet again the party soon came to an end as everypony went to town hall. Unknown to us that was when the true madness would begin." The group was sucked into his story as they finally had a new perspective on the situation. One thing for sure that as long as Equestria had heroes then it would never dall.
