Twilight pov

A half an hour later and we all looked at a massive ship that looked like and was as big wheel. My friends and family and I looked at the ship as if it was alive.

“Nice, right?”

I looked at the man named Marco as he walked over to us. He stopped beside me as I saw Nick chasing around a fancy dressed man. “So how did you all meet Nick Marco.” He smiled as I heard the carriage move.

“knock it off Gasai!’

He shot his hand out behind me and I turned my hand then saw a knife an inch behind my head. I fell back as I looked at her clod lifeless face.

“I swear why can’t you be more like Hancock. Nick saved you both and but your acting like a mad stoker isn’t going to fix what you’ve done in the past.”

I looked ferrous as she looked at him.

“Shut up or so help me I will put a knife in your jugular!”

He sighed as he gripped her hand even tighter. She hissed then dropped the knife in her hand to the ground. I took a few steps back so if she got loss I could get her with a magic bolt. She tried punch him in the face but he leaned his head to the side and she missed. She tried a few more times and failed. She gave up after her eighty try.

“Damn you Marco!”

She screamed then ran to the ship as Spike walked over to me.

“Man, she’s scary Twilight.”

I nodded as Nick chased the man in front of us as he yelled.

“You bastard! When I get my hands on you I will ring you neck for say that!” I had had it with his running then used my magic to grab him. I pulled him back over to me as he still tried to get after the well-dressed man. He huffed as I pulled him back over to see what he was so mad about.
“He said that I should just go get raped to death by Gasai. I was going to punch him in the face for saying that.”

I looked at him then sighed as I let him go and chase him some more. I watched as he chased him onto the ship as one of the larger men walked over to me. He had grey beard and long ponytail.
“Don’t mind Nick he and Haruta have never gotten along as long as they’ve known each other.”
Spike and I looked up at him as he crossed his arms. I looked back to the ship as I waited for Nick to come back.

“No, do you mind if I ask why him and Nick don’t get along?”

The large man looked down at Spike as he had asked the question I didn’t want to. The large man kneeled to look right at Spike.

“Well you see a while back a woman he loved told him that she didn't love him and that she loved Nick for saving her from a ghoul. Nick at the time had no interest in finding anyone to love. Hell, one time he tried to hide when Gasia and Hancock tried to give his valentines. He used the storage rooms to hide when they tried to hunt him down. He even hid in the crow’s nest for two days before they gave up.”

I wasn’t surprised at that as Nick had thrown himself at the ghouls after the train flipped. But I was a little worried now with not only a crazy stab happy girl running around but another woman was too.

“AAAAHHHH!”

I heard someone scream and we all looked at the ship seeing Nick running from a snake with a skull on its head with blue hair. It had white scales with red spots and a scarf tied around its body. He ran past us as the snake chased him to the woods.

“Someone help me!”

He screamed as he and the snake vanished into the woods. The man in front us sighed then looked at Marco.

“Go and give him a hand you know Salome won’t stop unless he catches him or she calls him off.”
I looked at Marco as he rolled his eyes as he started to walk the way Nick ran off in.

“Take them onto the ship and get them settled into some rooms well be taking them home.”

He waved as he walked into the forest. Our soldiers walked to me as the man around us grabbed our bags. They carried them onto the ship as we followed close behind them. Spike was holding my hand as he was slightly scared of them as well.

“The soldiers can stay in the second division section of the ship. The rest of you will be staying near the commander’s rooms.”

We all nodded then I saw a huge man in a chair with medical equipment attached to him. He was drinking from a barrel as he looked forward into the sky. He had a black bandanna on his head and a white mustache shaped like a crested moon. In the middle of his chest was a nasty looking scar.

“Who is that Twilight?”

I heard spike ask from my side then before I could answer the man looked over at us. I was frozen as he stared at us not saying a word. Then her looked at the man carrying mine and Nick’s things.

“I count six girls who clearly aren’t married yet given their ages. So, which is the girl Gasai said she was going to skin alive?”

I raised my hand as he looked at us again. He waved for me to come closer and with some fear I did so. I stood in front of him now as he looked down at me no clear signs of what he was thinking on his face. Then he smiled as he leaned back into his chair.

“I see, Nick is in good hands if you’re the girl who finally cracked open that heart of stone. I swear that boy had me worried all this time what am I going to do with him?”

I blinked as he looked up at the sky again.

“Get this young lady a seat someone.”

A second later two man walked over with a comfortable looking chair in their hands. They sat it down and I took a seat in front of the large man.

“Tell me young lady is Nick treating you with respect? Is he doing as a man should when his has a woman to look after.”

I smiled a little as I looked up at him. “Yes, He’s done everything and anything I could have wanted. I have a very nice life no worries, no bills and respect? He seems to respect me a lot more than he does anyone else.” The old man smiled as he took another drink from the barrel. Then he looked down at me again.

“Does he still refuse to drink even a drop?”

I nodded then her started to laugh as he slapped his arm rest a few times. A few men around also laughed as the listened in on our conversation. After a moment, the old man stopped and looked down at me. He was smiling as he looked at me.

“Then he’s finally grow up some. I was worried he’d never let go of the past and his pain. But it sounds to me like he has finally started to move forward again. It warms my heart to know that little brat has finally started a new age in his life. Now on to a more important matter young lady.”

“Yes Sir?”

“I’m not getting any younger and he like a son to me so I want to know. When can I expect to see some children from the two of you? I may not be blood but I think of him my son.”

I blushed as I looked away from him.

“OLD MAN!”

I heard Nick yelling.

Nick pov

‘I’m going to kill you! I’m going to kill you! I am going to kill you!’ I screamed in my mind as I ran with all my might away from this damn snake. Then right as he was about to catch me Marco slammed down out of nowhere on Salome’s head. I stopped then looked at him. “What took you so long!?” He laughed then got off his head.

“It was funny to see run like a chicken with its head cut off.”

I raised a fist as I stared at him. “You little rat I should deck you in the face!” He laughed as we started to run back to the ship with Salome’s on Marco’s back. We started to walk up the steps when I heard the old man.

“I’m not getting any younger and he like a son to me so I want to know. When can I expect to see some children from the two of you? I may not be blood but I think of him my son.”

I blushed then jumped into the air. “OLD MAN!” I slammed into the deck of the ship then ran up and jumped into the old man’s face. I grabbed the sides of his coat at the sides of his throat then started shake him. “Damn old man! I knew you’d ask something like that!” I saw him raise a hand then I realized I had screwed up.

“You grew a pair while you were away I see. Now let’s see how strong you got as well try not to die.”

I tried to jump back but he grabbed my right leg then threw me face through the side reeling of the ship. I flew through the air then started skipped over the water then I slammed into the ground after my last skip. I groaned as I sat back up. I looked the ship and saw both Purple and Blue lighting on the deck of the ship. ‘Ok Luna and Twilight are mad.’ I started to run back to then ship as I saw the air around the ship starting to crack. “He’s attacking I started to charge my air crack then used my tails to get the extra power in a jump. I jumped right to the deck as the air was about to finished cracking. I saw smoke coming from Whitebeard chest and the lower part of his coat was on fire. Twilight was right in front of him so If that attack hit her she’s never survive it. I landed in front of her then slammed my air cracker into his attack. Our attack collided creating a massive shockwave racking the ship. He looked shocked as I made my own copy of his attack.

“You brat!”

‘Death light show time!’

‘I’m on it!’

Red and Black Lighting suddenly started to come from the spot our attacks meets. Pushed even harder as visible shockwave erupted from the forced of our attacks. Large cracks formed under us as are attacks started to taper off. When they stopped the old man stood all the way back up.

“I see you also have that power.”

The old man smiled as he looked down at me. He laughed a few times then sat back down in his chair. He looked down at me with a smile as he spoke.

“I don’t which of you will lead this world into the new age but I bet my money on you Nick.”

I crossed my arms as I looked at him. “What are you talking about old man? What new age?” He laughed as he picked his barrel of sake up.

“You don’t know then to bad I’m not going to tell you about the new age Nick. But that you used it known as Conqueror will. I must say it has been a long time since I’ve last heard someone who could use it besides myself. I think the last person I heard of having this power was named Star Storm.”

“STAR!?”

Luna ran up beside me and looked up at the old man.

He nodded then drained the barrel of the sake. Luan frowned then yelled.

“TALK!”

The old man looked at her then threw the empty barrel at her. I punched it over the side of the ship. I crossed my arms as he looked down at us. He sighed then started to talk.

“One of my ancestors wrote about a man who’s name was Star Storm. They got into a nasty fight over my ancestor insulting a woman’s honor. If I remember correctly Star won the fight and the two of them went on to become the best of friends after the fight.”

Luan smiled then frowned as she looked down at the ground. I smiled then put a hand on her shoulder. She looked at me then smiled as she looked at me.

“I know I just want to know what happened to my old friend.”

She looked back at the old man.

“Please whatever you can tell me will help?”

I looked at him as he sighed.

“Princess you better be grateful for Nick’s kind heart he is the only reason your hearing your hearing this. It was vage the only other things about him was where is tomb is. Through it is not specific in its place.” Luan walked forward with a smile on her face.

“Where?! Can you tell me where his tomb is at?”

The old man started to rub his chin as he thought.

“Ah, sliver, no savage. His tmob his in one of the ten kings territories in the savage continent. That is all I know I’m sorry.”

“Thank you Sir, That helps me greatly.”

I watched the exchanged as they talked. ‘Wow, Death you really made detail into these fakes. Now let’s see what we can do for a private room for your favorite human.’

‘I can take a hint Nick.’

I laughed as I heard the annoyance in his voice. I smiled as I started to walk for the door leading down to the rooms. “Aright old man I’ll going down to my old room. With both those crazy women on this ship I have to reinforce the door before I go to sleep tonight.”

“Wait up!”

I heard spike run up behind me as I walked down the steps. I walked down the stairs with him beside me. I looked down at him and he seemed to be freaking out. I laughed as I followed death directions to the far back were a hall with fifteen door each spread out. I walked to the third door from the center door. I laughed as I looked at the door clearly no one had been in the room for a long time. I grabbed the handle then remembered I had spike with me. ‘I can’t just opened the door. Death make a key please.”

‘Done right side of the door.’

I let go of the handle then started to run my hand over the wall. I felt part of the wall moving. I smiled then pushed the lower part of the moving wood. I grabbed the wood as it started to fall to the ground. I saw a key in the wall then grabbed it of the hook. I unlocked the door then opened the door. I saw a room bigger then it looked. It was designed like a fancy mansion room with four bay windows. There was a dresser over to the left of the room with a large metal poles and a few large black balls. The bed was on a stand of about a foot of the ground. A boombox was set on top of the dressers with a cd next to it.

‘I just chose random songs hope you like them.’

“Dude this room is so cool!”

I smiled as I walked into the room. “Thanks spike a good friend decorated it.” I walked over to the bed then fell back on the bed and relaxed. Spike walked around the room then started to look in drawer around the room.

“Um, Nick what are these?”

I looked over at him and saw he was holding a playboy magazine. I blushed then jumped off the bed and grabbed the magazine out of his hands. I stuffed it in my shirts as I looked down at him. “If you don’t say a word to anyone I will get you all the ice cream you can eat later tonight at dinner.” He pointed to the magazine in my shirt.

“What was that magazine I’ve never seen one before.”

I started to sweat as I looked at him. “Um, how old are you Spike?”

“I’m thirteen why?”

I looked at the door and saw no one was at the door. I rushed over to the door and looked around to see if anyone was coming yet. I didn’t see anyone around so I shut and looked the door. I took the magazine out of my shirt then started to explain. “This is a magazine teenage boys use to… Um…” He walked over to me then tried to take it back. I lifted my arm to keep it out of his reach.

“Come on what could be in there that a teenage guy would like?”

I blinked then looked at him. “Um, Spike do you know where babies come from?” He stopped then spoke in a annoyed tone.

“No, but what does that have to do with it?”

I felt my eye twitch as I looked at him. “Spike sit down on the bed we’re about to have a talk and I don’t care if this comes back to bite me. After I tell you then you can look at the book all you want.” He looked at me strangely as he walked over to the bed and sat down. I thought how all the ways this could backfire on me but I learned this when I turned twelve for god's sake. I walked over to the bed then sat down on the bed beside him with the magazine on the other side of me. I took a deep breath as I readied myself for this. “Ok Spike listen up this is what they obviously haven’t been told yet. It took me a full ten minutes to explain it to him then when I was finish.

“So, if what your telling me is true then when you and Twilight are married then your going to have sex?”

I nodded as he looked up at me. “Yes, that is part of it. But the reason I’m going to marry Twilight is because I love her and I want to spend my life with her. Now as I said before you can look at this.” I handed him the magazine and he opened it to see what was inside. His eyes went wide as he looked down at was the first naked woman. I laughed as his eyes were wide with shock.

“There so big.”

I laughed as he looked down at the magazine. “Keep it if you want to Spike or I can buy you some new ones the next time we come back to Equestria.” He looked back up at me as he rolled up the magazine.

“Could I get away with both?”

I smiled and laughed as I looked down at him. “Ok, but I want to make a deal with you Spike.” He nodded then stood up as well. “I want you to make sure Twilight never finds that she’d kill me and you deal?” I held my hand out and he shook it with a smile.

“You got it!”

I smiled as I looked down at him. “Now tuck that into the back of your pants then cover it with your shirt. I’ll get you a room they are to far from here.” He never stopped smiling as we started to walk out of the room. But as I was about to grab the door handle it raddled. We stopped as we both looked at the door with faded breath.

“Nick this is your room right?”

I heard Twilight’s voice from the other side of the door and the two of us started to panic. I pointed for him to set down on the bed and he nodded then ran over to the bed. I walked over to the bed then unlocked the door. I opened the door and saw Twilight with Armor carrying her bags. “Sorry me and s\Spike were talking and I really don’t like to keep this door unlocked. I’m sure you remember meets Gasai. Then if Haocock finally hunts me down its going to be bad.” Twilight walked in ignoring me. I sighed then helped armor but he grabbed me.

“We meet that crazy woman Haocock and she was looking down on Twilight so much.”

I growled then sighed. “I’ll talk to her man. Damn it why did they have to be on the ship now of all times.” We set the bags down next to the bed. Then both him and Spike quickly left the room. I looked at Twilight as she sat down on the bed looking at the wall with a few old photos. I saw one of me, Gasai, Hancock and the old man. I smiled as I walked over an took the photo she was looking at. I took it off the wall then handed it to her. “This was taken not to long after I save the two of them. They were being held as slaves over in the griffin kingdom. I most have killed dozens of guards that day.” I sat down beside her as she looked at me.

“So, why is it the two of them are so desperate to have you for themselves?”

I sighed then laid my back on the bed. “Gasai is desperate to have a child and marry me. Hancock on the other hand is grateful for what I’ve done for her. But she wants more than that she want to keep me to herself but she never tried anything like Gasai has. The worst she has done was tell that snack of hers to chase me around until like a dog.”

“Why not just get rid of the snack then?”

I laughed as I looked at her. “I gave her that snack to keep her company when no else is around. She hates to be alone without someone to talk to.” Twilight laughed a little as she looked at me.

“That’s just like you Nick. You never could stand by when someone is in trouble.”

She laid down beside me then threw the photo onto the pillows. I laughed as she cuddled into my side as I wrapped an arm around her neck. “Has everyone gotten rooms?” She nodded as she hugged my chest. We lead in bed for a little while and felt the waves quently rocking the ship. A knocking came from my door and I sat Twilight being pulled along with me. “Come in!’ Izo opened the door with a smile on his face.

“Pops said we’re going to have a party to celebrate your wedding. So you know what that means.”

I smiled as I looked at him. “BRAWL FESTIVAL!” He laughed as he looked down at me.

“That’s right but more importantly it's our way of saying hello to our new family member Twilight.” I nodded as he walked out with a thumbs up. I walked over to the my bags then got out a old shirt. I got it on then we walked out and back onto the deck. I saw that they had speakers setup with tabled being filled with food and drinks. I smiled as I saw the old man standing with the other commanders. We walked over to them but we stopped as I noticed that both Gasai and Hancock we’re was them. Hancock was in a purple dress with skulls her long black hair down her back. Gasai had changed into a pair of blue jean shorts and a yellow shirt with a red bow on her chest.

“Hey old man I heard there going to be a brawl festival. Where is the sign up sheets?” He looked down at me with a smile.

“Down in the dining hall Nick. Why is the red death going to stand again?”

I laughed as the old man kneeled in front of us.

“I’m sorry, but young lady but as tradition you’ll have to fight a least one match to become part of our family. Nick and yourself are free to pick anyone you want to fight that you feel more comfortable.”

Twilight looked at little worried then nodded her head. I smiled then pulled her into a half hug. “Don’t worry if this get dangerous then I’ll step in.” She smiled but our moment was ruined by the two girls in front of us. Hancock looked down at Twilight as she held my arm.

“I thought I told you to get off this ship! Your weak and pathe…..”

“Enough Hancock you need to stop talking.”

She looked at me an flinched back as I looked at her very annoyed.

“But…”

“NO!” I yelled at her and she clenched her fist. They both stormed off angry that I didn’t want them talking down to Twilight. I sighed that I had to yell at her but even in the show she alway looked down on other. We walked back down to the dining hall to sign up for the brawl festival. Twilight and I walked into the two the dining hall. Twilight’s family and friends were already in the hall eating some food. Spike was eating a huge bowl of ice cream with a happy smiled on his face. We laughed as I looked around for the sign up sheet. Nightlight and Shining Armor where looking at the sheet. I smiled as we walked up to them. “I really wouldn’t sigh that sheet you two.” They looked at me as I let Twilight’s hand go. I signed my name on the sheet and Twilight signed hers shocking everyone.

“Twilight you know that is for fighting right!?”

The two of them looked at her shocked that she had signed it.

“I know the old man on the ship deck said I have to fight a least one match to become part of our family. Nick and myself are free to pick anyone you want to fight that you feel comfortable fighting. Nick said if things got out of hand things got bad he’d jump in to stop it.”

They all nodded then the two of them signed their names as well. I laughed as now I had a the chance to beat the hell out of the two of them without Twilight getting mad. We went back to the room to wait for the party to start. We napped until a loud banging come from my door. We groaned the I got out of bed thinking it was time. Vista was on the other side of the door with he had a roster in his hands then gave it to me. I leaned on the door as Twilight wrapped her arms around my chest. I noticed Gasai and Hancock watching from around the corner biting their thumbs as they looked at us. I looked down at the roster and saw there were thirty-two people fighting. I saw Twilight was the first to fight against a weak crew mate I didn’t recognize but she should be able to beat a normal man easily. I looked for my name and saw I would be fighting in the forth fight against Nightlight. I smiled as I was getting the chance to fight him again. Lastly Armor was fighting right after me which made me smile. Gasai and Hancock had to fight right after me.

“Let get moving everyone.”

Vista said then looked back at the two trying to hide. They fell to the ground as we all looked at them. I took my gauntlet off freeing my arm then walked in the room and grabbed my swords. With my sword in hand we left for the deck of the ship for the Brawl Festival. We got on deck with music playing as I saw lights over the front of the ship. I smiled as we all walked over to the side of the ship. A arena was set up right in front of the ship so everyone could looked down at the fight. I saw Nightlight down next to the arena then lifted Twilight into my arms then jumped down to the ground. I slammed into the ground making a small impact crater when we landed. I love this magic power. With just the word I could feel the power radiating off me. Twilight punched me in the cheek when we landed.

“Never do that again!”

I smiled as she jumped from my arms. “What a relationship needs a surprise or in our case scare every now and then.” She cover her hands in lighting and then I ran away. “I think I hear someone yelling for me.”

“Oh no you don’t!”

She hit me with that thunderbolt she had in her hands. I dropped to the ground with static sparking around me. I heard the guys laughing as Twilight looked looked at them.

“You all want some too?!”

They shut up rather quickly at her voice. After another hour the fighting was about to start with all of us right next to the arena. The music had stopped as Twilight and her opponent walked into the arena. Twilight was wearing a pair of black jeans with a red shirt with the words red deaths girl on her back. I smiled as she walked out into the middle with a man maybe a few years older than myself. But he looked weak as he wasn’t even holding his right as he held it near the end of the handle. Pops yelled for them to begin but it ended two seconds later as she hit him with a massive thunder bolt. Everyone looked at her shocked as she dropped a man with one spell. I jumped down to her then hugged her. “That’s my fiancée!” Everyone clapped once they came out of there stupper. I put her down then we made our way back to everyone else. The next few fights were over quickly as the commanders were fighting as was well. Soon enough they called for both me and Nightlight to come down.

“Really?”

I heard Nightlight say as I stood up. He was sitting beside Velvet over near the edge. I smiled as he looked up at me. “Think of it like this Nightlight you have a change to not be a laughing stock... again.” I smiled as he smiled at the idea of payback. We walked down to the arena for our fight. I took the left side Nightfury in my left Silver Skull in my right. He had his sword drawn as we waited.

“BEGIN!”

Nightlight lunged at me his sword ready to stab me in the chest. I smiled I blocked his sword with Silver skull then used Nightfury to cut his sword in half at the guard. He looked at his now useless sword at his feet. I smiled then stick two fingers into my mouth then whistled up at Vista.

“I’m on it!”

A second later a sword was threw over the side then stabbed into the ground. A sword fit for a knight was in between us. The handle and were black with the edge a silver down the blade and guard.

“It’s old of my old one Nightlight feel free to keep it since Nick broke yours!”

Vista yelled from the ship deck. Nightlight thanked him then took the blade from the ground. He swung it a few times then smile.

“I like the feel of this sword um…”

‘His name is Vista.”

“Thank you Nick and thank you too Vista!”

Vista nodded then Nightlight looked down at the sword again.

“Ok, let’s give this a try.”

He started to run at me with the sword at his side. He swung the blade at my right side. I blocked the attack but to my shock I was knocked back slightly. I saw that the sword glowed a slight blue aura on it. I understood where that extra strength in his swing. I smiled as I swung back with Nightfury. The magic energy on the blade shattered into the air as I used all my strength to threw him back into the ship burying him in the wood. I dropped the swords and panicked. “SHIT I went overboard!” I ran over to him the pulled him out of the ship and saw he was out cold. I check for a pulse finding a strong pulse right away. I threw him over my shoulder then took him to the medical tent.

“You went overboard again.”

I heard Cadence say again. I said sorry but for some reason my strength was out of my control when I use Nightfury. I left him with them and Velvet stayed with him. I walked back over to everyone as Armor and Gasai we’re called to the arena. I smirked as his eyes shrink as he heard her name. They walked down to the arena Gasai psycho face was on as she walked into the arena. She was back in the clothes she was wearing when she jumped us. With a debones in her hand with a mad look in her eyes.

“Shining is in trouble.”

Everyone looked at me as Gasai gripped her knife tighted when Shining started his way down to her.

“What do you mean?

I heard Cadence ask with worry.

“Somebody pissed her off and she’s got that look in her eyes. She’s going to go for the kill the second she sees the chance.” Cadence and Twilight both looked worried as the fight started. Gasai slowly started to walk around him looking for a weak spot in his defence. Shining on the other hand keep his eyes locked with hers with sweat forming on his head. “Don’t move first make her move first!” I yelled as I saw him about to run at her. But I was to late he had started to run at her magic on his hands. Gasai smiled a deranged smile as she spun the knife in her hand.

“I’m going to carve you up you sorry third rate!”

Gasai ducked as he tried to grab her but the shoulders. She smiled as she clinched her left fist then punched him straight in the balls. Myself and every other man covered there balls as Gasai looked down on him.

“You know, I found out that your the brother of that bitch who stole Nick’s heart her right under us. I know for a fact that as long as Nick is alive I can’t lay a finger on her. But you your fr…”

I jumped down to stop her then saw all the other commanders had the same idea. Then pops jumped down as well.

“EVERYONE WHO'S NOT A COMMANDER TO YOUR ROOMS NOW!”

'Fuck'
