I Left My World for Ponies!?
Chapter 10: Princess-to-Princess (Part 1)
Previous Chapter Next ChapterTwo months have passed since Equestria's first human, DJ, arrived in Ponyville. Two of the craziest months Ponyville have had in a long time. There were parties, fights, and other wackiness, but not today. Today, Princess Twilight Sparkle was in Canterlot to visit a dear friend.
"Ah, there you are Twilight. It has been too long, my faithful, former student!"
"It has only been two month, but it is always good to see you, Princess Celestia."
"You no longer need to be so formal Twilight; we are both Princesses now."
"Oops! Sorry, force of habit, I guess," Twilight said with a slight chuckle.
Celestia giggled a little herself. "Indeed. You always were a pony of habit. Now, I would like to speak with you on the most important subject of tonight; how our new guest has been doing."
"If you mean DJ, then he has been good. Every pony in town enjoys having him around, a few more than others." She muttered the last part.
"That is very good, but I wish to see for myself all that has transpired these couple of months." Her horn glowed a regal gold and suddenly both princesses disappeared. Only to reappear in a strange dream-type realm. Twilight recognized it as the place where Celestia ascended her to alicorn status.
"Pri...Celestia? What are we doing back in the Astral Plane?"
"I wish to see your memories of the past two months for my own. Is that alright?"
"Oh! I don't see any problem with it. Where would you like to begin?"
"Where ever you feel is right, but a little help now and then would be lovely."
"Okay." Twilight stopped to think where she and Celestia could begin watching her memories. Then it clicked. "That should a good place as any to start," she said more to herself than to her former teacher. "We should begin about three weeks after DJ came to Equestria. He had just graduated."
Celestia raised an eyebrow at that. "Graduated from what?," she asked completely clueless.
"As he called it, 'Pinkie's School for Pinkie Physics.' Basically, he learned how to do what Pinkie does."
Celestia looked genuinely concerned. "Was that really a good idea?" She feared what this strange creature could do with such powers. She almost shuddered at the thought.
"That's what I thought at first, but he really isn't all that different. He just seems to pop-up where ever he wants to now. I thought it would have been a lot worse, but he seems to be in control of himself. Take a look, Celestia." With that, the memories began to flow.
***Three Weeks After Arrival***
Today was a good day! DJ was finally done with his Pinkie training and he was free to abuse it to how he saw fit. Pinkie went all out her ceremony, even having DJ wearing a pink graduation cloak and cap. He didn't seem very happy with the color choice, but decided to just go with it, not wanting to sadden his teacher. The things I do for love.
The rest of the Mane 6 and Discord were in attendance and more ponies would attending the after party. The ceremony was incredibly short, being that there was only one student, but DJ smiled brightly through the whole ordeal. Totally worth it! The after party was amazing! Several ponies were in attendance, including Lyra & Bon Bon, the CMC (whose first meeting with had had him on the ground with three fillies on his chest asking a ton of questions), and several others. It was his first party at Sugar Cube Corner and he was loving it. Especially when he got up on stage.
"Alright everypony, whose ready for some music?," he yelled to the crowd. It took a lot of convincing for Pinkie to have him sing at his own graduation. He won the argument by saying that if he couldn't sing, then he wouldn't smile. Pinkie relented almost immediately. DJ had been getting better with his music, even practicing on his own in his basement bedroom. The 5 Discords also had gotten much better and more powerful as they could now do many songs without needing a recharge. The six of them had gotten really close, almost to the point of brothers, but none of them would ever admit it. A cheer went up from the crowd, pleasantly surprised that they would get another musical treat from their new friend.
"GREAT! Then let's get this party pumping! Everypony let's PARTY UP!"
We gonna melt some ice
We gonna roll the dice
We gonna slip and slide into paradise
We gonna grind some gears
We gonna ring some ears
We gonna drink some beers
'Til they disappear
Turn the party up
Drink the good times down
Little buzz in a cup
Will hit ya get ya space bound
Sip a little whiskey come on baby kiss me
Let me get a drip of your frisky gypsy
And when ya hit ten bump it to eleven
Tonight we gonna fly with them 747's
Get highhhhhhhhh hiiggghhhhh
Gonna kill another 6 pack just to watch it die
Turn the party up up up
Turn the party up up up
[Lead Discord begins]
Hey pretty girl tell me what you think
This country boy pour you a drink
Crank this party up and let's ride
Miles of moonlight by my side
Old dirt roads go straight to heaven
Forget tomorrow tonight were living
Crank this party up to eleven
Forget tomorrow tonight we
Turn the party up
Drink the good times down
Little buzz in a cup
Will hit ya get ya space bound
Sip a little whiskey come on baby kiss me
Let me get a drip of your frisky gypsy
And when ya hit ten bump it to eleven
Tonight we gonna fly with them 747's
Get highhhhhhhhh hiiggghhhhh
Gonna kill another 6 pack just to watch it die
Turn the party up up up
Turn the party up up up
***Present Day - The Astral Plane***
"Well, he certain enjoys performing, doesn't he?" Celestia was pleasantly surprised herself how eager this human was to sing for her ponies.
"Yeah, he does, but I still wish he would tell me what Pinkie taught him," the princess of magic huffed.
"He won't tell you?"
"No, he said that only Pinkie can explain it with out the universe and reality crumbling around us. I then asked Pinkie to teach it to me, but she said DJ was a special case. Saying that the two of them were on the same brain wave length."
"Aw, my student denied new knowledge." She giggled a little at her students position. "He must be holding it against you."
Twilight sighed. "No, he was actually apologetic when he told me that he couldn't teach it. He seemed genuinely sorry." Twilight tried to hide a small blush that had come to face, but Celestia still noticed. She decided to talk to Twilight about that later.
"Oh, he starting again" Celestia looked to where Twilight had pointed and saw that DJ was back on stage starting up another song.
**********
Hey there baby where’d you get that smile
Make a country boy walk a country mile
You’re sweet like a peach from a Georgia farm
Got a honey suckle kiss that will break a boy’s heart
I got a Chevrolet out in the parking lot
With an empty seat and I know the spot
It’s a pretty good haul down an old dirt road
I got a tank of gas and a radio
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
Cruise through the country maybe, pull an all-nighter
Every little Bonnie needs a Clyde beside her
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
Now put your pretty tan toes up on my dash
Lay your head on my shoulder, baby kick on back
We can put a 100 miles on this old truck
Or pull on over, fog the windows up
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
Cruise through the country, maybe pull an all-nighter
Every little Bonnie needs a Clyde beside her
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
Now baby don’t say no
You know you wanna go
There’s a good time waiting on you
Down that road
Sure like to see your hair in the wind
The moonlight dancing on your skin
Wake up in the morning head towards the sun
Like a couple outlaws out on the run.
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
Cruise through the country, maybe pull an all-nighter
Every little Bonnie needs a Clyde beside her
Come on baby, be my shotgun
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
Cruise through the country, maybe pull an all-nighter
Every little Bonnie needs a Clyde beside her
Come on baby, be my shotgun rider
During the song, Twilight and Applejack had found themselves over at the temporary bar that Pinkie had set up for the party. The two mares were sitting on bar stools, water for the unicorn and cider for earth pony. They were both facing towards DJ for the whole song, both with a slight blush on their face. Twilight didn't notice AJ's, but the same couldn't be said vice-versa. Ever since the first party, the country mare began to have these strange feelings towards the human. His songs spoke to her heart and they were beautiful, but seeing her friend like that she began to wonder if Twilight was having the same feelings. She was going to ask her, but DJ interrupted by yelling out to the crowd.
"Thanks, everypony. Now for this next number, I will need a mare from the audience." Several hooves shot into the air and DJ was hard pressed to choose. His response was to put his hand over his eyes and pointed his finger out. "Okay, since so many ponies want to help me out, I am going to have to depend on pure chance. Aaaaaaaand you my good mare will join me." He took his hand from his face and looked at his partner and was completely shocked. "Oookay, whose the wise guy? Somepony used magic, as what are the odds that I pick Twilight Sparkle out of this crowd?"
Twilight was equally shocked, but decided to answer him. "No pony used magic, DJ. Plus, the odds of that happening are--"
"Never tell me the odds!" Perfect movie reference achievement unlocked! "Well, come on Twilight, get up here! DON'T make me turn the crowd against you," he warned. She nodded and reluctantly moved towards the stage. It was several minutes before she finally made it up there. "Wow, you sure can be slow when you want to be!," he quipped. "Don't worry, Twi. The magic of this world should be able to help you sing this one. Trust me! You are going to love it!" He had that sly smile of his on, and Twilight began to blush a little again. DJ noticed, but brushed it off as embarrassment. "Let's get it on!"
My motorcycle needs an oil change
Fence needs mending, house needs paint
I got a million things that need to be done but
Baby I can only focus on one
The way you're looking back at me right now
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're playing with my mind, baby ain't no doubt
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're everything I shouldn't be thinking about
Baby you've always had a one track mind
So what you're saying ain't no surprise
What may come as a shock to you
Is that I'm having all those little thoughts too yea
The way you're looking back at me right now
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're playing with my mind, baby ain't no doubt
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're everything I shouldn't be thinking about
Baby since you and me are on the same page
Let's do something 'bout it, what do you say, ay?
The way you're looking back at me right now
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're playing with my mind, baby ain't no doubt
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
The way you're looking back at me right now
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're playing with my mind, baby ain't no doubt
I'm thinking about everything I shouldn't be thinking about
You're everything I shouldn't be thinking about
Applejack saw the whole thing and, to be honest, she was a little hurt. Through the entire song, Twilight had a massive blush because even she could tell what the context of the song was. DJ was smiling like he always did, but it seemed brighter with Twilight next him. She was a little upset that her crush seemed to be focused on his roommate instead of her. Applejack was a supportive friend, however, and decided not let this get her down, instead she would try to help those two as best she could. Every country colt has a mare for him. Even if that's not me, I'm still happy for him. The memory ended there.
**********
Celestia also noticed Twilight's reaction through the song, but decided to leave it for later. Could my student really be falling for this human? She intended to find out. "He certainly has some odd choices." She giggled a little as her friend squirmed a little.
"That song was completely embarrassing! He openly talked about...that! He can be so insufferable sometimes."
"Oh? He seems pretty laid back and calm most of the times. Other than that he just appears to be fun and crazy."
"Yeah, but you haven't seen him when he isn't like that." Twilight had a small trace of fear on her face. That made Celestia worried.
"Twilight? Did something happen?" Her worry was beginning to show. If that human hurt my student, then he will pay.
"Yes, but he didn't hurt me, if that is what you were thinking. He hurt another pony, pretty bad."
"What?" Celestia's anger was beginning to grow.
"Yes, and it was the first time I have ever seen DJ truly angry. And it was just awful." Twilight hung her head at this, with a look of sadness plainly clear. Celestia was trying very hard to hold back her anger.
"What happened?"
"He saved the life of my daughter."
