Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Author's Notes:

Hey everyone, well it has been a bit since my last chapter and I want to say sorry about that. Lack of motivation to write, Dark Souls 3 and Destiny all got in the way for writing this chapter. I am thankful that I got this done though. So enjoy this chapter because hopefully I can get the next chapter done sooner than I did with this one.

Without further adu, Lets kick it up

Well it’s been six days since Celestia first got her Double Soul, and life in Canterlot has been hell for me. First off the news that I was Nightmare Moon’s husband had caused a lot of unnecessary backlash from it. The nobles were demanding that me and Nightmare be divorced, saying that I am not good enough for her and other stupid shit like that. What happened next didn’t surprise me at all. She shouted at the nobles calling them bigoted idiots with polls shoved so far up their asses it is like they trying to reach the moon. The response from that outburst was less than kind. They outraged that one of their princesses would say something like that. So she did the only thing that seemed right, lock herself in our room until she can think clearly from the shit storm that is happening right now. Now during this time I decided to not enter our room and just stay up and try and see how this goes. I regret doing that. For nearly everyday during the day time I was hounded by the nobles and I was trying my hardest to NOT kill every single one of them.

So when that happened I decided that enough was enough and to go to Ponyville, hoping that when I go there it will calm me down. I am walking through the halls right now and up ahead I see Celestia. She notices me and walks over to me and steps besides me.

“How have you been Gregar?” She asks with concern.

“Like shit, that’s how I feel.”

I hear her sigh “I am so sorry for this, I didn’t think that the backlash would be this much for both you and Nightmare.”

I sigh as well “Don’t blame yourself Celestia, It’s the nobles who are to blame. Well not all of them, just most of them.”

“I still feel as if I am resp-”

I cut her off “Say you are responsible again and I will punch you in the face right here and now.” I then look at her out of the corner of my eye and see she has shut up and looks away. “Sorry, it’s just I haven’t had any sleep in the past five days and I just need to get away from Canterlot.”

After a few seconds of silence Celestia finally speaks “Where are you going to go and for how long?”

“Just down to Ponyville for a while, for a few hours or so. Clear my head and hopefully not try and kill anyone in a rage.”

I then see Celestia walk forward and stop in front of me and rests one of her hands on my shoulders, I look in her in the eye.

“Alright Gregar, while you are doing that I will try and calm down the nobility. I will see you later today then.” She then hugs me and I hug her back. After a few seconds she lets go and we go our separate ways, she heading to wherever it is she is going and me towards Ponyville. Before I leave the castle I Beast Out and use my invisible battlechip to sneak my way out of the city to avoid any unnecessary confrontations. After two minutes have gone by and the city of Canterlot is in the distance, I come upon the town of Ponyville. I then drop out of my Beast Out as I enter the town. Of course as I keep walking I get stares thrown my way, but they then quickly turn into smiles and waves, to which I return.

As I walk I think to myself. ‘I guess the ponies here are fine with me being Nightmares husband.’

I keep walking until I find the park and as I do I walk over to a nearby bench to sit down. As I sit down I bring out the sword battlechip Tobi gave me and lo and behold it became an MP3 player. I smile a little and select random and set it to repeat the song. The song begins with a slow Piano melody and then the lyrics begin, I know this song all too well. As it plays I look up into the sky and I begin to think how much I have gained, but also how much I have lost. With how I look now as a human, well it isn’t how I used to look. I don’t even remember what my name was originally nor what I looked like before I came to Equestria. I remember most of my life before coming here, I was an only child to two loving parents. I remember my other family members clearly, but when it comes down to myself it gets hard. When I try to remember what I used to look like it gets fuzzy, and I start to forget my old life when it happens and I am scared about forgetting it. Fuck, I hate getting sentimental like this. I then let my thoughts drift to two days ago when I had a conversation with Luna about what Celestia told me.

Flashback

Luna is walking the halls of the castle as she is done with night court for the day, and as she comes around a corner she sees an odd sight. Gregar sitting against a wall looking outside at the moon. She then sees him put something up to his lips and drinks it. Luna raises an eyebrow at this.

“What are you drinking?” She asks out of curiosity.

Gregar pauses in his drink and notices Luna and puts it down by his side and looks her in the eye. “Orange Juice.”

Luna rubs a hand on her forehead “At least you didn’t find the alcohol.”

He then has a smug grin “Oh I found it, I just didn’t have any.”

Luna then glares at him then rolls hers eyes “Well come on, I need to talk to you.”

Gregar then stands up and has an empty glass of orange juice in his hand. Luna then leads him towards her room and opens the door for him. “So Luna, what's up?” Gregar asks as Luna goes over and sits down while he stays standing.

“When was the last time you had slept?” Luna asks him while staring at him with a critical eye, looking for any signs of lying.

Gregar shrugs “About four days, why?”

“Because I would like to know why Nightmare Moon has locked herself away in her room and why you also haven't slept.”

Gregar sighs heavily and runs a hand through his hair as he looks down at the floor. “Well have you read in the newspaper that me and Nightmare are married?” Luna nods her head with a smile that quickly transitions into a neutral expression. “Well since you are normally up during the night I’m somewhat surprised you haven’t gotten some noble coming into night court bitching about how ‘Some freak has tainted the princess’ or some other bullshit like that.”

Luna’s eyes widen at that “What?!”

Gregar nods “Yeah, that's the reason Nightmare is currently locked in her room. Most of the nobles hate the idea the one who isn’t a pony is married to her, bunch of racist bastards.”

Luna is calming herself from what she just heard and mumbles “I know it was bad when Celestia told me all of this,” she then clenches her hands “but this is outrageous.”

“How do you think Nightmare felt when she heard all this? She was, and is rightfully still, pissed the hell off by them. And when I tried to enter our room, I got a scythe blade sticking out of the door because of it. She apologized shortly afterward but just wanted to be alone until everyone has calmed down.” Gregar then leans against a wall. “This has hit her hard, but I am hoping that Celestia can eventually calm down the nobility and their bitchiness.”

Luna then narrows her eyes at Gregar when he was talking about Celestia. “Is there something about Celestia that has some reason for this?”

Gregar then looks at Luna “No, it is just what she has told me that I am, well a little torn I guess would the right thing to say.”

Luna then gets relaxed in the chair she is sitting in. “And what exactly has she told you?” Gregar hesitates before answering.

“She asked if she could be in a herd with me and Nightmare.”

Luna raises an eyebrow at this “And did you answer her?”

Gregar then shakes his head “I only said I don’t know, and that Nightmare would come up with the answer.”

Luna then thinks about this for a bit then asks Gregar “Tell me, do you still wish to be married to Nightmare?”

Gregar's eyes start glowing menacingly and is growling “Of course I do, She means far too much to me to just up and end our marriage with her just for something Celestia has asked.”

Luna then smiles warmly at Gregar and he becomes confused “Well I see where you stand then. You are wondering if being together with Celestia is fine.”

“Well, yeah.” Gregar hesitantly says.

“And then your marriage with Nightmare, you want to spend as much time with her to make up for lost time.” Luna then turns serious “Did Celestia tell you anything else?”

“Yeah she said she tried to get into a relationship but-”

“But they all ended badly.” Luna finishes for him. “You see Celestia has always wanted a relationship since she couldn’t be with you. Though she tries to hide it, she is still depressed even though we are all back. And the main reason is because she wants to be loved as a mare, one who will love her back and not see her as a princess.” She then looks Gregar in the eye “She wants someone as caring as you are. That is why she asked you this now, to be loved by you as you love Nightmare.”

Gregar then looks down in thought and shortly afterward looks at Luna again “What are you saying?”

Luna rolls her eyes with a smile “I’m saying that you should accept Celestia’s proposal and treat it slowly. See if the two of you have a spark and slowly build it into a flame.”

Gregar then rubs the back of his head “I’ll… think about it, ok?” Luna then nods her head and he leaves her room with a sigh.

Present

I am still sitting on the bench just watching the clouds roll by in the sky. The song is still going as I think about what I said to Luna.

‘If Nightmare even accepts this, what will I even do for Celestia? I just don’t know what to do.’ I say to myself. The song then fades out as it ends for the third time and right when the piano begins I hear something faint over the music.

“Fun Fun Fun.” I hear faintly and then have my gaze goes from the sky to looking around. I then stop the music and listen for it again.

“Fun Fun Fun.” I hear it again and I look towards the direction of the woods.

“Fun Fun Fun.” My eyes widen and I feel one of them start to twitch. Great I just had to come into town when Pinkie found the Mirror Pond. Then suddenly a pink wave of hyper comes through town all chanting the same word over and over again. I rush into town and see all the pinkie clones getting into others personal space and asking if they want to have fun. But as soon as they look at me their eyes light up and I beast out and have my eyes glow and glare at them all. Then they all split up and go the other way in fear, I sigh and look around trying to find the real Pinkie. Since they all look alike, I use my scanner to find her, and well it still comes up with nothing.

‘Well that doesn’t help all too much, how am I going to-’ I then smack myself in the face as my train of thought figures out how I can find the real Pinkie. ‘Of course just look for the one that has the strongest signature to the Element of Laughter.’ Now since I know what to look for, considering I remember the signature from when Celestia and Luna used them, I can easily find Pinkie. As I activate the scanner it shows me where she is, and as I walk all the clones evade me as if I will kill them on the spot, granted I wouldn’t do that it just makes it easier to find Pinkie. When I find her I see her drawing faces with frowns on them. I am a little saddened by this as I walk over to her.

I crouch down next to her “Hey Pinkie, how are you feeling right now?”

She pauses in drawing her frowny faces and wraps her arms around her knees “I’m fine, I mean I am just sitting here doing nothing. I mean how do you know I am the real Pinkie, I may just be one who got a little messed up from my adventure into the Mirror Pond.” I then look at her eyes and I see them getting misty. “I mean what makes you think I am the real Pinkie.”

She doesn’t look at me at all and I sigh “There are multiple reasons I could say so, but I’ll stick to a few of them. The most obvious one is that you are not acting like all the clones of yourself. You are sitting here making frowny faces because what you thought was a good idea ended up becoming something worse. You had good intentions but look at what happened, clones of yourself going around wanting to have fun. Another is that I used my scanners to find which one has the strongest connection to the Element of Laughter, which happens to be you.” I pause as she sighs and doesn’t move at all and see a few tears fall from her face. “Also Pinkie I know it’s you because of how much you care for your friends, you wanted to help everyone you met. You had good intentions that became like this.” I then put a hand on her shoulder “Pinkie don’t let this get you down, just because you messed up like this, shouldn’t bring you down in a slump like this. I mean these clones are nothing like you, for one you feel happiness and sadness. These clones only care about having fun and don’t care about anything else. While you, you didn’t want it to become like this. You just wanted to be there and help any way you could. So Pinkie don’t let this get to you, please.”

Pinkie then finally looks at me with tears streaks matting her fur and lunges forward and hugs me. I smile at her and hug her back. After a few minutes of sitting there and me calming Pinkie down she lets go and smiles back at me.

“You look better with a smile on your face than a frown.” I say as Pinkie blushes a little and giggles. I then stand up “Now come on, let's go somewhere so we can talk normally.”

We then we make our way to Sugar Cube Corner, and when we enter I go out of my Beast Out and we go to a booth in a corner and sit down. Pinkie leaves and comes back with some milkshakes.

“So Gregar it is nice to see you, but what are you doing here?” She asks me while resting her hand on her chin.

“Well first have you read the newspaper?” She nods her head with a smile. “Well the nobles are having a bitch fit because of it.” She frowns. “Yeah, I know and they would constantly come after me telling me to end our marriage. It’s getting annoying and it is a miracle that I haven’t killed anything because of it.” I finish with a sigh.

I then look at Pinkie and see she has already finished her milkshake and is now twirling the straw around the cup while tapping one finger on her chin in thought. I look at mine and see I have had only a quarter of it. Weird, I thought I would have been halfway through it.

“Well what is Nightmare doing right now?” Pinkie asks me.

“In her room trying to calm down.”

“Hmm, well what about Princess Celestia?”

“Trying to find a way to calm them down.” I say as I rest my head in the palm of my hand and look out the window. I see a streak of blue go across the sky and see it is Rainbow Dash. It seems she is looking for any stragglers. I then look back at Pinkie only to find an empty seat and no milkshake whatsoever, like she was never there to begin with. I see Rainbow Dash then enter Sugar Cube Corner and I wave to her, she waves back with a sheepish smile and quickly leaves. I thought she was mad at me or something. After about her entering two more times she finally is back at the barn. I know this because when she re-entered again I tracked her with my scanner.

“Is she gone?” I hear coming from right next to me. I turn my head to see Pinkie next to me with another Milkshake and is wearing a long overcoat and fedora, like she is trying to hide from someone.

“Yeah.” I hesitantly answer. I then blink once and she is no longer wearing the overcoat and fedora and is back into her blue and white striped t-shirt and shorts.

She then leans onto the table and lets out an exasperated sigh “I thought she would always come back.”

I raise an eyebrow at this and nothing more.

“Well that's fine and all Pinkie, but why were you trying to hide?” I ask her after a couple seconds.

“Well then she would take me over to whatever the girls are doing with my clones and I wouldn’t get to spend any more bonding time with you Gregy.” She finishes with a smile.

I then breath out a heavy sigh and look at Pinkie “Pinkie, I will only say this once. NEVER, call me that again, okay?”

“Okie Dokie Loki.”

“Anyway Pinkie, there is something I would like to talk with you about.” I say after about a minute.

“What is it?”

I look at Pinkie in the eye, “Pinkie Promise you won’t say a word to anyone else until I can say you can.”

She flinches a little at my tone and hesitantly nods her head then goes through the motions for the promise. I may have been a little harsh but I wanted to make sure she kept it. I quickly use my scanners and find out that there is no one else around to hear this. I then tell her my dilemma with what Celestia told me. The reason I am telling her is because I wanted to hear an outside source about the whole thing. When I first began telling her she didn’t know what to think, but as time went on she closed her eyes in concentration. When I was done, she was looking at me with a serious look on her face, as if deciding what to say.

After a bit she finally looks at me with a smile. “Well I would say accept it as well. I mean with what you told me I never would have expected the Princess to be like this. But you should give it a chance, it may turn out for the best not only for you, but for Princess Celestia as well. Also I think it would best if you, Princess Celestia, and Princess Nightmare Moon all sat down and talked about it.”

I look at Pinkie and sigh with a smile on my face. “Well, once this whole shit storm has calmed down, I will tell Nightmare about this alright?”

“Sounds good to me.” She says. After we finished the shakes we got up and walked around town for a bit. As we were walking we ran into Pinkie’s clone and the others.

“What?! I thought I got all of them!” Rainbow Dash exclaims as she throws her hands in the air in exasperation. I then look at the clone and see it is slightly shaking in fear of me. Pinkie notices this and walks over to it. She then starts circling it and giving it the stink eye. The others try and stop her, but I just glare at them as my eyes glow. They back off a little and Fluttershy curls into a ball and hides behind her mane. I turn back to Pinkie with a little bit of remorse, but I wanted to make sure they didn’t interfere.

“Gregar.”

“Yeah Pinkie?”

“You know what to do.”

I look at Pinkie in confusion. She then looks at me in deadpan and points at her clone. I then smack my forehead and walk over to the clone. The clone then begins shaking visibly and all her friends look over at the clone. I don’t see their expressions, but I then stop in front of the clone and tap it on the head. It then changes into smoke and flies off to wherever the mirror pond is. I then see all of them are around Pinkie, apologizing to her and she forgiving them. I see this and smile and then I get an idea. As I think it over for a few minutes I become aware of Twilight grabbing my attention.

I turn towards her, “Yeah?”

“Pinkie told me why you are here and I was wondering if I could ask you some questions.”

I think it over for a few minutes before agreeing “As long as it doesn’t take more than an hour.”

She then gets happy and starts shouting yes over and over while circling me. I then stop her and motion for us to go to her treehouse. After the hour has passed I thought it would never end. Question after question AFTER FUCKING QUESTION. I was only able to keep up with the rapid fire questions because of my scanner telling me what question was asked. The questions ranged from what Earth is like to more about my family. As soon as she asked me personal questions like what I was like before coming to Equestria, I gave her a straight look and told her to drop it. She got the hint from my tone to not continue in talking about it.Twilight was then disheartened that the hour was up but I told her I need some time to myself for a bit. I asked for a spare room to use and she lead me downstairs, still don’t understand how this place has a basement but whatever, and I went and sat down at a wall and when I did my I closed my eyes and I entered my ‘homepage’ as I like to call it. My homepage is how I am able to talk to other navis without having to call on them, basically like how you enter the internet in the battle network games. I open my eyes and I am standing in front of Numberman’s lab. I smile and enter his lab. When I enter I hear the sounds of someone working on things and some grumbling and cursing in between. As I get closer to the sounds I can’t help but notice some unfinished projects of his. I see some form of ride armor from the Megaman X series, weird but alright. I even see a spear that has electricity coursing around the tip, huh I might want to give that a try.

“Come on almost have it and-” I suddenly hear an explosion go off and go over to where I heard it. And from the smoke comes Numberman coughing and waving his arm back and forth to fan out the smoke “- Damn it I thought I had it there.” Numberman then looks up and notices me. “Oh hello Gregar, what brings you here today?”


“What were you working on Numberman?” I ask with a chuckle as he wipes his hands together.

“Well I was hoping I could create some custom battlechips, but now have worked so far I’m afraid.”

“Well I can’t help you there, but I need your help on a few things.”

“If one of them is about Celestia I will say go for it.”

I deadpan at him “If it was about that, I would’ve asked Roll. No what I am here for are two things.”

Numberman then looks at me in interest. “Oh, and what are these two things are?”

I smile at him and tell him the first thing I need. He rubs one of his hands on his chin and the lights on his head are going on and off as he thinks this over.

“Hmm, I’ll see what I can do alright. This project will become my priority, even if your fears are correct though.” He tells me in a serious tone.

“Alright, and the second thing I need from you is a jetboard.”

“You mean the one that goes across water?”

I smack my hand to my face, hard. I then drag it down my face and let out a heavy sigh.

“No, I mean one that can fly. Like from the anime Eureka Seven.” I then pull up an image for him to view.


“Ah I see. Yeah I can make that, just pull up a Fishy virus and I can get started.”

“Um how?” I tilt my head in confusion to what he is saying.

He then facepalms and says “Like how Gregar from the games was made, all you need is a collection of bugs and it is done.”

“Again, how?” I say in irritation. Seriously just tell me already.

“Just summon up a fishy from one of the dash attack chips and you're good.”

I deadpan at him, “Would have been nice of you to tell me from the beginning.”

He then rubs the back of his head “I thought you would have known that.”

“I didn’t.”

He then taps the side of his head. “Well now that I think about it, you wouldn’t have known. Virus’s like this can only be summoned in cyberspace.”

“Well that’s nice to know.” I then summon up said chip and Beast Out, then concentrate on putting energy into it. Because of how my power works, I am basically unstoppable in cyberspace because of what I can do. Mainly due to the fact that I can summon an unlimited amount of viruses because of the amount of bugs I can use. Anyway back on topic, after about a minute the chip glows and when it dies down in it’s place is a fishy virus.

This one is different because it is a Fishy 3 virus, as it has yellow and black going across it’s body with a light blue underbelly and red eyes. I guess I grabbed the condor chip instead of dash attack. It then turns towards me and starts nuzzling as it’s eyes close and has what looks like a happy grin on it’s face. I then rub its head and chuckle a little as Numberman coughs into his fist.

“As touching as that is, I need to get working. Now how many would you like me to make?”

I think about it for a second then shrug as I move the Fishy over to Numberman. “Eh make about twenty of them.”

He nods his head “Alright, that should give me a few days to get them complete. Anything else while you are here?”

“Nothing comes to mind, so I shall let you begin.” I then turn around and am about to logout when Numberman stops me.

“Oh and one last thing. That test from long ago was positive, in case you forgot about it.”

“Thanks, I’ll let Nightmare know as soon as I can.” I then smile underneath the mask as I feel tears in my eyes. The test I had Numberman take was to see if I could get Nightmare pregnant. It looks like Nightmare will be in for a surprise when I get back. I then logout and stand up and stretch out my aching bones. I then hear the door open from the stairway.

“Hey Gregar, you awake now?” I hear Spike ask me as he walks down.

“Yeah, why?” I ask as I meet him at the bottom of the steps.

“Because a letter came by for Twilight from Princess Celestia saying if she saw you that it is safe to return to Canterlot now.”

I nod my head “Alright, thanks for letting me know. By the way, how long was I down here for?” I ask as we both head back upstairs.

“About two hours.” He simply replies.

“Huh, didn’t feel that long.” I shrug as we enter the library. “Well I’ll be off then, see ya round Spike.” I give him a two finger salute and leave, while he waves bye. I then Beast Out and begin my jog to Canterlot. I then select a random song, and the one that was picked, hit my nostalgia hard. Damn, now this brings me back. This is the kind of music I grew up to. I let the song play out as the scenery changes around me. I keep my pace so I can let myself be lost in the music. I soon see Canterlot coming close and slow down. I then begin my walk to the castle as I let the song fade out and is replaced with a different one. As I walk through Canterlot I get looks thrown my way. Some are just curious stares and others are of disgust, but most of them are neutral. I guess whatever Celestia did worked out then. As I continue walking not a single one stops me as I am walking towards the castle. When I get to the castle the guards don’t stop me, only nod at me as I walk through. Before I go any further I stop and ask the guards something.

“Where can I find Celestia at the moment?”

The one on the right replies “She is currently in her personal study at the moment.”

“Thanks,” and now I have my current destination.

As I make my way there, I think to myself how Celestia got them to calm down. Well I don’t think about it too much because it doesn’t take me very long to reach her study. I open her study doors as I drop out of Beast Out and I immediately see she is in a little bit of stress. Also she is now wearing a white blouse with some tan colored khaki’s, seems she is going casual today. I see her open up a bottle of what looks like whiskey and pour it into a glass and drinks a little bit of it before setting it down and then notices that I am in the room. Her eyes widen in shock and quickly looks back and forth between me and the alcohol.

She then shakes her head and mutters “Fuck it.” Before sitting back and taking another swig. “Come on in, I guess.” She says as she sits back into her chair. As she sets the glass on a coaster on her desk I sit in a chair on the other side.

“So I see you needed a drink then?” I say with a bit of a smirk.

She sighs and rubs her forehead with her eyes closed. “Yeah, it took a while but I finally got them to calm down.” She then has a small smile on her face as cracks an eye open at me. “So how was Ponyville?”

I chuckle as I lean back into my chair “Eventful, that's for sure.”

She chuckles as well “I know, from the letter Pinkie wrote me. It was nice of you to help.”

“It was.”

“By the way, you should tell Nightmare that it has all calmed down now.”

I then ask her “How did you do it?”

She then looks at me in the eye with her arms resting underneath her chest, while having a smirk on her face. “That's a little secret I am keeping to myself.”

I then playfully glare at her “Oh sure, but you will tell me eventually.”

She then raises an eyebrow “Oh really?” She then leans forward with her smirk getting bigger. “Tell me how then?”

I smirk. “Well only time will tell till then.” I then lose my smirk as she leans back and takes another drink, downing it all in one go. “I see you needed to unwind a little.”

“Yeah, sorry you had to see the ‘perfect’ Celestia drinking alcohol.”

I roll my eyes at her “If you were ‘perfect’ as the others say, you would be boring. No offense.”

“None taken. Would you like a drink?”

I wave my hand “Nah I’m good.” I start laughing a little. Celestia raises an eyebrow at this.

“What’s so funny now?”

“Just remembering the first time I had alcohol.”

She then covers her mouth to hold back her laughter. After a couple seconds she reigns it in. “Oh I remember that moment clearly. I still can’t believe you out drank the minotaur king all those years ago.”

“Oh same here, and at the end of it all I felt was a small tingle in my fingers.” I sigh then. “Well it was nice talking to you Celestia, but I need to go see Nightmare now. Don’t want to keep her waiting.”

“Well don’t let me keep you from her.” She then gets up and walks around to me as I stand up as well. She gives me a quick hug before ushering me out the room. I shake my head as she closes the door behind me and walk towards Nightmare. After a few minutes I get there and knock on the door.

“Hey Nightmare, just letting you know that Celestia has the nobles all calmed down now.” I see magic on the door, but before i go to open the door I hear her voice from the other side.

“You sure, because I swear if there is one outside that door with you-”

“There isn’t, trust me there isn’t.” I then hear the lock click and open the door. I go inside and shut it behind me as I see she is sitting on the bed and hugging her knees. I sit down next to her and wrap an arm around her as she lays her head on my shoulder.

“First things first, how are feeling right now?” I ask her.

She sighs “A little better now that you’re here.” she then gets into a more comfortable position and then continues. “How did Celestia calm them down?”

“That is something she is keeping from me.” I grumble to her as she lets out a giggle.

“Well that is no surprise, but what did you do today because you seem to be in a bit of a good mood?” she asks me as I look upon her.

“Oh a few things happened. I helped Pinkie when she was feeling down after she found the mirror pond. Played two hundred questions with Twilight. Talked with Numberman and had some very good news and now I’m here.”

“I take it some other things happened in between as well?”

“Yeah, but that can wait for later. Now there is the issue of what happened between the gala and Cadance and Shining Armour’s wedding.”

“Alright, well shortly after the Gala, Discord made his appearance known. But I wasn’t there when he came by because I was dead asleep, stayed awake for a few days catching up on some policies.” She then told me how they stopped Discord. “The next thing to happen is Twilight going crazy about missing a deadline that Celestia never put in for Twilight.”

“Really?”

Nightmare then laughs “Yeah, she was freaking out that if she didn’t send Celestia a letter of what she learned about friendship for the week, she would get punished for it. I really wished I could’ve seen what Twilight looked like at that moment, but oh well.”

“Heh, now that sounds funny.”

“It was, now next was Nightmare Night, or as you would call it Halloween. When I first heard of it, I was skeptical of it, but then I was overjoyed to see what costumes ponies had come up with. Luna on the other hand was not as enthusiastic as I was. She was afraid that some ponies would see her in a negative light. Well I decided to go to Ponyville with Luna to see how it would go. It started off fine, until Pinkie decided to say that we were going to eat the ponies. Luna was disheartened by that while I tried going after Pinkie to stop it before it got out of hand.” She then rolls her eyes “It turned into a giant goose chase with her. I eventually stopped her, but the damage was already done. In the end Pinkie apologized because she didn’t know that Luna wasn’t into the whole Nightmare Night thing yet.” She then described the rest of season 2 of MLP:FIM. When she was talking about hearts and hooves day she started mumbling off and stopped talking altogether. I looked at her and found she was starting to tear up and I quickly, but gently, hugged her. She then told me that it was very difficult day for her because I wasn’t there with her. Luna and Celestia tried to get her out of her room, but it wasn’t until four days later that she finally left her room.

She then looks off into the distance and I try to think of a way to get her out of her slump. I then get an idea. I put my hand on her chin and have her look at me. She doesn’t want to look me in the eye and I give a sad smile at that. I then close the distance between us and kiss her. She gives a little squeak at first then melts into the kiss as she wraps her arms around me. I then end it and I see her smile as she gives me a quick nuzzle.

“Don’t worry, we will make up for lost time.

“Oh I know we will,” she says in a very seductive voice. Well then, that just happened and I am completely ok with that.

I then motion for her to continue, to which she does. The one thing that I was most curious about was with Spike and the dragon migration. I begin thinking of something I could do for Spike, considering there aren’t many guys he is around.

“Then we finally get to the wedding. I don’t think I need to tell you how that went down now do I.”

“No you don’t.”

“There is something I would like to ask of you though?”

“Hmm?” I am now intrigued by what she has to ask.

“What happened to you after you left the Crystal Empire after you saved it?” She asks me with a raised eyebrow. It doesn’t help she is currently sitting in my lap with her arms still around me after our little makeout session we had about a minute ago.

“Well I found a token from another displaced like myself.”

“Oh really? Who is it?”

“Someone by the name of Ken Ahkrin, a Scalebound.” I say as I take out his token, which is an onyx colored dragon scale. “When I first met him, well I tried to kill him.” Nightmare then glares at me, yeah I figured I would get that reaction out of her. “But, as far as I know he is fine with it. After our little fight, though in my opinion it was one-sided, we went back to his base which was a community built into the wall of a canyon in the badlands.”

“How did the fight end?”

“It ended with me getting smashed into a canyon by Applejack who turned into a dragon. If I could’ve scanned her, I might have had an idea of why, but the Beast Over Protocol was active so I couldn’t. I got to know him as well, he is really nice as well.”

“Well how about sending him a message, I would like to meet him.” She says with a smile.

“That could work, I mean I did tell him about you a little.”

“Oh, and what did you tell him?” she tells me with an amused glare.

“Oh nothing much, just that you were nice and not some evil overlord like you are over on his end.” Her ears then go flat against her head. “Hey, he knows you aren’t like that here.”

“I know, but when I am called evil or something like that. It brings up bad memories. But what about the message.”

“Hmm, one sec.” I then try and think of a way to send him a message when the scale starts glowing green a little and I swear I could faintly see my navi mark. “Lets try now.”

Hey Ken, it’s Gregar.” Then NIghtmare adds in “And don’t forget me as well.” I chuckle a little “Yeah and my wife Nightmare Moon, in case you forgot. Anyway, I was wondering if you weren’t busy you and Applejack could stop by here. You want to say something NIghtmare?” She then nods her head. “When you get this message I am really hoping to meet you, you sound like a nice person from what Gregar has told me. Well see you then.” The glow around the scale is then gone and I return it to my hammer space.

“Well here's hoping he gets the message.”

“Yeah, oh what did you talk to Numberman about?”

“I asked him to build two things for me. One of them is a secret so don’t bother asking anything else about it.” Nightmare then pouts a little, which looks adorable to me. “The other thing I asked him to build is a jetboard.”

“A jetboard? What’s that?”

“Well back on Earth, it was something that lets you drive across the water on a surfboard. But what I had in mind would fly instead. Because when Celestia was in Double Soul, she didn’t have her wings or horn. So I thought that Alicorns and pegasi couldn't fly when in a form like that. I then thought around that and now Numberman is currently working on it as we speak.”

“Well that is thoughtful of you.”

My eyes start getting misty as I remember what Numberman told me before I left.

“Gregar, is something wrong?” Nightmare asks me in concern, to which I hug her closely. She hesitantly hugs me back.

I then whisper in her ear “There was something else he told me. Before I left him to do his work, he told me the test that we took so long ago had results.” I feel Nightmare tense up.

“And w-what were the r-results” she asks me as she is about to start crying.

“It came back positive. We can have kids together Nightmare.” She doesn’t say anything for about a minute, I was getting worried until she pushed me down onto the bed and then locked me into a passionate kiss. I held her there for a while until we both had to breath.

She then looks me in the eye, as I am resting underneath her, and tears of joy are in her eyes. “You have no idea how long I have been waiting to hear that.”

“I think I have an idea.” I simply say as I bring my hand and rest it on her cheek as she leans into it and puts one of her hands on mine. She then lets go and rests on top of me. I wrap my arm around her as we simply stay there, enjoying each others company. I then close my eyes and rest a little.

After a few minutes I say “Don’t get too comfortable though, in two days it will be yours and Luna’s turn for training.” She then lets out a very loud groan as I chuckle at her.
