Two weeks passed since it was revealed that I was being manipulated by Core and I was busy trying to fix some of the problems I caused, like explaining to Bartz that Zeke wasn’t evil which was a feat as It took me half a day to convince him and even then I don’t think I fully got him, I at least convinced him to keep an eye on Zeke should he come. That was the hardest part, all I had to do now was explain to the Foretellers that he wasn’t evil which should be more easy to do as I’m pretty sure they were on the fence about helping me anyway. The hard part about that was my dark corridors, they didn’t work anymore no matter how hard a snapped my fingers, meaning I couldn’t travel to parallel worlds anymore.

“Great.” I said sarcastically as I was snapping my fingers in a dark alleyway. “Still doesn’t work.” I said as I walked out of the alley to the library as I was still staying there. While the Gummi ship was nice, Twilight actually made a case on why I should stay, a literal case out of it like if she had access to Power point I feel like she would have made a presentation but I told her that I was staying before she could make it. “Hey Twilight... Who’s this?” I asked as the woman got uncomfortably close to me.

“So your the cutie that's staying at twilight’s place?” she said as Twilight looked at her confused. “Oh right I guess you don’t know who I am, handsome.” She said introducing herself. “I’m Lyra, an old well I guess you’d call friend, but not really.” she said as she hugged my arm. “Now about you, how about we get to know each other over dinner or at my place?” she said as I could barely get a word in before she said, “Great! I’ll see you at seven.” she said as she walked out of the Library.

“What just happened?” I asked as Twilight was just as confused.

“I think you got a date.” she said as she went back to organising her books.

“Two things, one what? And two, don’t you reorganise the Library every day?” I asked.

“Okay first, You got a date with Lyra. and second, what's wrong with reorganizing the Library everyday?” She said as she kept reorganising the Library.

“Okay i’m going to skip number one out of fear of repeating myself and jump to number two, If you keep reorganising the Library people won't know where to find things.” I said as I wondered.

“Okay fair point, but I’m still going to do it, as for you go head to Rarity’s place and get something better to wear as your cloak isn’t date aperal.” she said as she moved books around.

“Okay?” I said confused as I walked out the door and towards carousel boutique.

As I entered the shop I was greeted by Rarity. “Oh hello darling are you here to buy or do you just want to talk?” she asked.

“Hello Rarity, I’m here to get a new set of clothes for a date tonight.” I said as she gasped.

“YOU a date, well that dusty old cloak won't do take it off and let me get your measurements.” she said as I took off my cloak and placed it on the chair she pointed at. “Okay now stand like this” she said standing in a pose, I mimicked that pose. “Good now let me...” she said getting my arm and leg measurements. “ Your lucky its been a slow week as I may actually get your clothing ready and made by tonight.” she said as she gave me my cloak and pushed me out of her shop to work.

“Okay?” I said as I headed to the Library to put my cloak back on I passed a woman who said something about me that I could not hear due to the crowd. “Hey Twilight.” I said as went up the stairs into my room to change back into my cloak.

“So how was Rarity?” Twilight asked as I walked back down the stairs with my cloak on.

“She was fine, she said she’ll have my clothes ready by tonight.” I said.

“DId you tell her your date’s a seven?”

“No?” I said confused “Why?” I asked.

“Well you could have told her that so she would know to make the clothing before then.”

“Twilight, it's already three I’m sure she will have it by six.” I said.

Three hours passed and she didn’t have it ready by six... “I’m sorry Huxley I thought you said your date was at eight. I’m sorry but your going to have to make due with what you have.” she said as she returned to work on the clothing. “If it's any consolation I should have them ready in an hour and a half.” she said an a disappointed voice.

“No, I’ll come tomorrow to pick them up and pay for them.” I said as I left for the library to wait for Lyra.

Another hour passed as Lyra came to the library wearing a skirt and a tank top. “Hey Handsome.” she said as she hugged my arm. “So where to?” she asked as we walked out of the library toward the only restaurant that wasn’t sugar cube corner.

“So wait, you were in Canterlot for the royal wedding?” I asked.

“Yeah I was a bridesmaid for Cadence, she used to babysit me.” She said while taking a bite of her salad.

“Thats interesting.” i said looking at my burger.

“So I heard you were the big hero that saved the wedding.”

“Well I don’t want to toot my own horn but yeah I saved Cadence.” I said.

“That so amazing how did you find her?” She asked.

“Well my portal opened up there and I just so happened to overhear crying coming from behind a pile of rocks which I smashed down and found Cadence crying and the rest is history.” I said .

“So where are you from?” She asked.

“I'd rather not say...” I said as the questions kept on coming.

After our meal I walked Lyra to her home. “Would you like to come in?” she asked as I took my hood down.

“Sure.” I said as I entered her house.

“Couch is over there.” she said pointing to said couch, but as I walked over it I was grabbed from the back and before I could react I had a tongue in my mouth. “Bonny!” Lyra scolded as the woman took her toungue out of my mouth.

“You kiss good.” she said as I recognised her from my walk back from Carousel Boutique earlier today.

“I was supposed to get the first kiss.” she said as she came up to me and sticked her tongue down my mouth. I was more ready, but still was out of nowhere. “So what did you think?” she asked I was confused and could barely form a sentence much less words. “Oh, right, I forgot to explain this, silly me.” she said as she walked to ‘Bonny’ “this Is Bon-bon my best friend whom we share everything together.” she said as she emphasised the word everything. “In other words, you're dealing with Bisexual best friends.” she said as I started to blush I put my hood back on.

“I got to go.” I said as I ran out the door.

“Aw man, I was really hoping this would be the one.” Bon-bon said.

“Don’t worry I’ll go check up on him tomorrow.” Lyra said. “Give him some time to cool down, we probably came on too strong.”

**

I had made it a good distance out of the house and was able to get some thinking room. “Stupid Huxley, stupid!” I said as a voice came up from behind me.

“So you're the one I’m looking for?” the somehow familiar voice said as I turned around to see a man with red hair hover over me with swords floating beside him.
