Surprisingly, I was having a good time at the party; I’m not exactly a party griffoness and neither is half of my family. I spent most of the time talking to my friends and eating, but I also met some other ponies, like Love Tap – Button’s mother, who almost crushed me when she discovered that it was me who save her son the other day –, Vinyl Scratch – the party’s DJ –, and even two girls called Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, but I didn’t like those two very much. Not even Sunshine is that prissy.

Luna had to go back to Canterlot for the weekly Night Court, but she returned as soon as the court ended. Those two hours passed pretty fast, we almost didn’t notice it.

Scarlett, Viper, Spike, Luna and Eclipse were always by my side, talking to me and discussing some things about the new update that occurred this week. Yeah, half of our talks are game-based. The awkward silence that occurs when there’s nothing else to talk about a game is pretty hilarious. Anyways, Dolph, Sapph and Soul were playing around and talking to others, having a slightly better time than us nerds.

My family was also around, talking to everyone and showing some of their tricks. Bella spent most of the party with the kids, showing her Nature powers. Normally, changelings can only turn into another sapient species – Why? Fuck if I know – but her Nature powers let her also turn into animals and control nearby plants. If I had to describe her, I’d say she’s a druid. Well, as far as I know, since the only druid character I’ve ever played as was that guy from HearthStone.

And there’s also that adult comic based on WoW that I read. I still can’t believe that the dragon-

…

I got so side-tracked Dolph would be proud.

The kids laughed most of the time, with Bella turning into bunnies, dogs, cats, birds, and she even showed her natural form to them. Some of them were rather shy, but most didn’t mind the fact she’s a changeling. Looks like that peace treaty with the ‘lings is working, not everyone is afraid of them anymore.

I did mention that, right? If I did, I probably didn’t explain it. Well, about two years ago four changeling Queens presented themselves to Princess Celestia to make peace with Equestria. Turns out the only bad changeling was Chrysalis; she brain-washed her own changelings through the mind-link they share – aka. Hive Mind – to mindlessly obey her, and attacked Canterlot to turn herself into the most powerful Queen using the whole ‘My species is starving’ bullshit. Most ponies got traumatized by that, and those Queens were trying to fix the mess the Bug-Bitch made.

Canterlot was bitching over this treaty since the start, mostly because they were the ones that were attacked and feared they would be again, but the other towns were just a bit suspicious. After those years the treaty was up, the only town that still think the ‘lings are evil is Canterlot, but come on! That’s like saying every griffin is a greedy little shit because the griffins of Griffonstone are like that.

Well, Sapph and Soul returned to our side when we were talking, and after Sapph stopped crying with joy over the buff Shyvana received – Girl, your ultimate is just charging faster, calm the fuck down! – Button and his friends approached us.

“Uh… Fairy?” Button called shyly.

I turned to him and smiled. “Hey, Button. What can I do for you?” I asked. Scarlett and Spike subtly raised their eyebrows.

“We just wanted to see a bit of your magic. Mash kept telling us it was awesome and I got curious.” Rumble responded for his friend, and both Button and Pipsqueak nodded.

“Well, most of my spells are destructive, and the ones that aren’t are pretty basic. My best non-destructive spell is my Arcane Chain, but my Mirage is pretty cool too.” I said while creating a chain on my right hand and using my illusion spell to turn the cupcake I was holding into a soda can.

Those who didn’t know I had this spell stared at the ‘soda can’, and Spike pointed at it. “So that’s how you hid from me earlier.” I nodded in response.

“Cool…” Button and Pipsqueak said at the same time.

“Wait, your others spells are destructive? How so?” Rumble inquired.

“Arcane Bomb, Arcane Blast, Arcane Missile, Vault Breaker Kick… Those spells can easily create a hole in the wall. I don’t really want to do that.” I said. I turned to look at my family, who were talking with each other on the other side of the room. “If one of them were up for a battle outside, I could show you. But it’s getting pretty late; I think the party is going to end soon.”

Spike grabbed his cellphone and whistled. “Yeah, it’s 10:20 pm. The families with children will go home soon, and Pinkie will end the party. Tomorrow is Monday; you guys will have school too.”

The teens groaned. “Worst day of the week.” They chorused.

We laughed a bit at their collective reaction. “Good thing we’re free tomorrow afternoon. After we play a bit on Sweetie’s server we can show you how Hybrians battle.” Scarlett said with a nod.

Spike turned to me. “No training tomorrow?”

I shrugged. “Training too much can be bad, especially when half of the training is fighting. Three times a week is sufficient for you guys, but I suggest trying new spells at home too. We can train Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and since we already trained today, we can skip tomorrow.”

Eclipse fist pumped. “Yes!” He then stopped and looked at us. “Don’t get me wrong, I love the idea of learning magic, but I’m sore in places I didn’t know I could be sore.”

“That’s normal for a beginner.” Scarlett commented.

“So we can see you fighting tomorrow?” Pipsqueak asked. When we nodded he smiled brightly. “I’ll be sure to go!”

“So, who is going to fight tomorrow?” Luna asked.

We stopped to think a about it. “Well, I want to use Bloodlust on a real battle, so I want to fight.” Scarlett said firmly.

“It’s been some time since I battled too.” Viper said quietly.

“So you two are going to fight each other, then.” Spike said. “I’m tired of my battle earlier, and Fairy might want some rest too.”

“I’ve been through worse, but yeah, resting a bit more does sounds nice.” I said.

“Oh! What about a 2v2 battle? Or 3v3?!” Dolph exclaimed, suddenly appearing on our side.

We all jumped in surprise and turned to Pinkie and Dolph, who were laughing their asses off. “Geez, don’t scare us like that!” Eclipse said with a hand on his chest.

“S-S-Sorry!” Dolph said between laughs. When she calmed down she looked at us. “It’s been months since we had a team-battle.”

I looked down to think. “Yeah, but I won’t fight this one. I’m going to rest a bit, like Spike suggested.”

Scarlett and Viper both shrugged. “Sure.”

“Then it’s going to be me and Scarlett versus Dolph and…?” Viper said, waiting for someone to accept the challenge.

“I’m up for it.” We heard someone call. We looked to the source of the voice and spotted my older sister walking to us. “I want to see how well you are trained with that scythe of yours. And after that, my Fortunes and I will wipe the floor with your face.” Lightning said with a confident smile, summoning her kamas. They were just like mine, but the blades didn’t extend like a kusarigama and instead of petals and flowers, hers were stamped with a pink lightning on the blades and a glyph where blade and handle met. If I recall, that glyph is a simple durability and resistance enchantment.

“You’ll have to wait and see, huh?” Scarlett said, crossing her arms and smirking.

“Cool! Can I watch too?!” Pinkie asked excitedly.

“Sure!” Dolph said with the same tone.

“Well then, what about tomorrow at 4 pm at the lake? I went there earlier.” Lightning suggested.

“We’ll be there.” Viper said with a nod.

“What was that about a battle?” Sunshine said, joining the group.

“We’ll see if Scarlett really knows how to use her weapon tomorrow.” Lightning said. “Let’s see if the others want to watch. See you all later.” She walked off, and Sunshine waved to us before following my sister.

“Huh. How strong is she?” Spike asked. The others looked at me in curiosity.

“Well, she’s a weird mix between assassin and support. Most of her spells are crowd control, status, anything but damage. But she can use them to destroy anything. Her Calling is actually a combo so strong she can kill five hydras with it and get away unscratched.” I said, making my friends gape, imagining her strength. “OP? Nah… The Death’s Call: Annihilation Dome is a simple spell that every Glyph-wielder can use. As for her spells, she has… thirty three, if I remember correctly.” ‘Ok, if they weren’t impressed before, they are now.’ I thought.

“Now I’m excited for it.” Eclipse said with a nod. “Oh, by the way, how strong are Niner Blaze and Moonlight? Just so I know for when I fight them.”

I couldn’t help but smirk, Scarlett matching my expression. “We can’t really decide who is the strongest of us, since most of the battles are pretty unpredictable. But when we tried to determine the five strongest of us, we chose Aguion, Lobis, Flora, Niner and Moonlight.” Scarlett said.

“Moonlight has twenty nine spells, and Demon Girl has thirty eight.” I said with a chuckle. “Surprisingly, Moony’s calling is a Life’s Call, but Niner’s Death’s Call can pulverize the Everfree if she charges enough.”

“I’m so screwed…” Eclipse moaned, making us laugh a bit. “Why you family is so overpowered?”

“When I said we were elite, I wasn’t kidding. But they don’t like to use their calling, it leaves them manaless and can deal damage to the nearby allies.” I explained. “So the callings are pretty much last-resorts, and every calling is a bit OP on their own ways. You’re still fucked, tho.” He whimpered.

“Ok, let’s stop before Eclipse curls into a ball on the corner.” Luna said.

“You know you’re probably going to fight Niner too, right?” Scarlett said with a raised eyebrow.

“Yes, and I’m excited about it! I want to know first-hand how strong she is.” Luna said with and eager smile.

“Hey, where’s Pinkie?” Pipsqueak asked. Huh, kinda forgot he was there. I guess we talk a bit too much.

We looked around, but Pinkie was nowhere to be seen. “Huh, if her Chaos magic is this strong that she left without anyone noticing, I fear when she learns how to control them completely.” Spike commented.

“Yeah. Twilight is going to be so pissed.” Dolph giggled.

Spike joined her on it. “Yeah, the first thing Pinkie’s going to do is prank Twilight or Rainbow Dash.” That made us all chuckle a bit.

After that, we didn’t do much. We just hung out on the food table – without eating anything, for some reason – and talked a bit about our lives. A few minutes later, the party ended just like I had predicted, and everyone went home. I was walking in silence with the girls by my side, the only noise being from some of my family that were talking, flaps of wings from some, and the natural noises from around us. Our friends had already returned to their homes, and we were exiting the city now. Scarlett turned to me with a smirk. “I saw what you did there.”

“What?” I asked innocently.

“Come on, our Death’s Calls are strong but not that much. Pulverizing the Everfree? Hit-killing five hydras?” Scarlett scoffed. “You did that only to torment Eclipse, I’m sure of it.”

I giggled. “Guilty as charged. It’s just too funny, y’know.”

Viper and Dolph frowned. “We should really stop doing that.” The venompony commented.

We all stopped mid-step and looked at each other. “… Nahhh…” The four of us chorused.

We entered our house and scattered. Some went to their bedrooms to sleep; some went to the bathrooms to take a bath, and others just sat on the couch and chilled while watching TV. The four of us also went to our bedrooms to chill and decorate our rooms; I grabbed the chest under my bed and opened it, seeing the things that I just stuffed in there the day before. My eyes set on some posters and my plushie; I grabbed them and sat on my bed, scanning the items. The plushie would be a clone of me if I were a feral griffoness, from the pink feathers that formed my hair to the lack of wings, and even the Cutie Mark on the butt.

I smiled and set the plush-griffon on the bed and grabbed my posters. One was the Headhunter Akali’s splash art and the other was an Espeon on a battle stance. I put both on the wall over my bed, and jumped on said bed, grabbing my doll and looking at Dolph.

She was doing the same thing, putting her Nami Koi’s poster on the wall. She went to her notebook and turned it on.

“What you’re going to play?” I asked, sitting up.

“Undertale. It’s been a while since I played this game, and I don’t even remember much about it. It’ll be fun playing it again.” She said with a smile.

“Cool.” I said before flopping back on the bed.

“Dinner’s ready! Flora made us salad!” I heard Bella shout and my stomach grumbled.

I stood up and shrugged my shoulders. “whelp, that’s my cue.” I said with my best Sans impression, making Dolph giggle. “You’re coming?”

“Nah, ‘m not too hungry. I’ll eat something later.” She said. I shrugged and walked out of the bedroom. Sunday is the ‘you do what you want’ day, if she doesn’t want to eat, it’s her problem.

I walked inside the dining room and saw that everyone was already eating, so I took a seat by Scarlett’s side and grabbed a bit of salad for me. The others noticed that Dolph wasn’t with me and raised their eyebrows; I noticed that and explained. “Dolph isn’t hungry. She’s playing upstairs.” They nodded and returned to their meals.

“What she’s playing?” Viper asked with curiosity.

“Undertale.” I said before biting some of my salad.

Scarlett and Aguion stopped, letting their forks fall. We looked at them with worry. “Uhh, Fairy? You do remember what happened last time Dolph played this game, right?” Scarlett asked with wide eyes and shrunk irises.

“No? My long-term memory is pretty fucked up.” I furrowed my eyebrows and tapped the side of my head. “What’s the problem?”

“When Dolph hear a joke of any kind, she’ll use it like there’s no tomorrow. Now, what kind of joke Undertale use?” Aguion asked, putting his elbows on the table and resting his head on his fists.

“Well, mainly puns, but-” I stopped myself, dread overcoming my mind.

Everyone slowly looked up just as Dolph started to laugh, probably at the joke Toriel uses during the tutorial. We then looked to each other and, even the ones that don’t like to swear, facepalmed, echoing the same thought.

“Oh, fuck us…”

Author's Notes:

Don't worry, I won't torment you with bad puns. Fairy, on the other hand...

You son of a bitch.

Love you too. I won't pun every five lines, but Fairy is going to regret giving that game to Dolph so much... I'll focus more on hers and the others responses to the puns.

Mainly raging about it.

Until the next chapter.

Now let's count how many people are going to downvote this story because of what I put on this chapter...
