Previous Chapter Next ChapterDay 10: A brief Aftermath.
Twilight decided that it was time to Wake up Roxas, so she could return to the everyday activities.
She took a deep breath and concentrate to eliminate the blush she had from reading the note.
''Have I finally found somepony who I can understand and confine my lonely past with"
"Roxas could it be you''? Twilight though giving Roxas a little shake making him wake up.
''Morning Roxas how are you feeling''? Twilight said.
''To be honest I feel great thanks for helping me last night it really helped me'' Roxas answered.
"Looks like you had another nightmare after we went to sleep"Twilight said.
"Yeah, I dreamed about that place again, Xemnas was torturing you and the girls and I couldn't do anything, but I felt something warm in my face and suddenly a light appeared rescuing me from the dream" Roxas said.
''So that's why you held me so tightly, and when you were touching my flank with your wing'' Twilight said.
"W....W.....WHAT?, did I really do that?, I'm really sorry Twilight" Roxas said apologizing with his friend.
Twilight move towards and hug him
''Roxas its okay I was surprise when you did it to me, your the first stallion to have ever touch my plot but you were in pain from Xemnas and you wanted something to hold onto that can help you relax and well I actually like it when your wing was stroking my cutie mark flank it was gentle and careful so if you were to touch me their again with your wings and/or hooves I won't mind I like being around you your so warm and cozy''. Twilight said.
"And besides I touched your flanks with my tail too" Twilight said blushing herself.
Roxas hugs her back
''Really Twilight I...uhh thank you as a matter of fact I find that your very soft and smooth and I hope that if I have anymore nightmares we can do this again''
''I would love to Roxas, Cuddling and snuggling with you is amazing especially when your not wearing any clothes, we should hug each other more often this way and if I'm not available you can ask the others if they can fill in for me''Twilight said.
"Yeah, I guess I need to have more connection with the others"Roxas said.
Twilight let go Roxas from the hug and ask something to him.
'So Roxas how are you gonna tell the others about your new powers''?
"Maybe in the aftermath, i still have a lot of things to do"Roxas said.
"Are you staying for the breakfast?"Twilight asked.
"Sure, just let me put on my black coat" Roxas said.
Roxas went downstairs and have eggs, toasts, and hay bacons with orange juice for breakfast.
''I got to say Twilight if I didn't have my magic to change my body features I wouldn't have been able to eat hay''.
''Wait you would have gotten sick from it just what kind of a pony are you roxas''? Twilight asked.
"Oh I guess I haven't told you or anyone this" Roxas said.
"This isn't my normal self, imagine a creature with just hair on its head a d walks in two legs, but I promise, someday I'll show you and the others how I really look like"Roxas answered.
Twilight touch roxas hoof with hers and squeeze it while saying
''Roxas no matter what creature you are it won't change how we feel about you we seen on how kind and caring you are just make sure not to take too long revealing your true self to us come on lets finish up and I'll take you back to applejack's farm''.
After Roxas and Twilight finished eating, they went to ponyville just to find that the town was very isolated.
"Roxas this is weird something is happening"Twilight said.
"Wait a sec Twilight" Roxas said whistling with his hoove summoning the equestrian trio.
Twilight couldn't hear anything from what the nobodies say.
"We wait for your orders my liege"
"Sky Trooper, fly up and scout out the entire village for any strange activities, heartless or other nobodies, Arcane and Fighter troop, secure the perimeter around the town, I don't want anything to happen" Roxas said finishing giving the orders.
The equestrian trio go out on they first mission.
"Ha, I could used to this" Roxas said.
"You sound like a Military officer, maybe you would like to meet my brother" Twilight said.
"Let's save that for later, let's go to Sugarcube corner"Roxas said
"Sure, maybe Pinkie pie know what is happening"Twilight said.
When they arrived to Sugarcube corner Pinkie opened the door and Inside, they find Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy who nervously explain that they are hiding from a strange hooded creature named Zecora. The only pony not scared is Applejack's younger sister Apple Bloom who is also present.
Just then Roxas nobodies appear in the room surprising the mane 5 and applebloom.
''Equestrian trio status report now what did you find?'' Roxas asked.
''Our liege the village perimeter is safe and account for no threatens scene, heartless or enemy nobodies, but our scouting turns up with a strange creature in a brown coat at the center of the town square''. The nobodies says while pointing to the window.
"Thank you, dismiss now" Roxas said vanishing out the Equestrian trio.
"Woah, Roxas simce when you can do that?"Rainbow dash asked.
"Yesterday I unlocked this power with the help of Twilight but I'm still trying to control it" Roxas answered.
"But....they are...friends right?" Fluttershy asked.
"Of course Fluttershy I can control them they won't do anything to hurt others" Roxas said.
"Well at least we have some special back up but now the problem is Zecora"Applejack said.
"Zecora?, who is Zecora?"Roxas asked.
"Let's spy her on the window" Rarity said.
Roxas took a look from the window just to see the hooded figure walking in the of the plaza.
The creature proceeded to remove his hood of revealing a black and white creature.
"Its a Zebra, I read about them in one of my books"Twilight said.
"And I can tell she is not very old"Applejack said.
"Sometimes she comes to ponyville, but we don't know why, everypony thinks she is a witch and a bad entity just because she lives in the everfree forest." Applebloom said.
"Can anypony explain what thing does she ever do here?"Twilight asked.
Rainbow dash started thinking but when she was about to talk Pinkie pie interrupt her with a song.
"She's an evil enchantress
She does evil dances
And if you look deep in her eyes
She'll put you in trances
Then what will she do?
She'll mix up an evil brew
Then she'll gobble you up
In a big tasty stew
Soooo... Watch out!"
After that song Applejack, Rainbow dash, Rarity and Fluttershy were totally scared.
Thanks to that the mane six started a discussion about the truth intentions of Zecora.
Roxas approached Applebloom saying:
"Well I think the girls are going to be discussing around for a while, do you wanna find out by yourself?" Roxas asked Applejack younger sister.
"Yeah Roxas c'mon"
Just when they were about to leave Applejack stops them.
"What in the world are you too planning?"
"I was going to escort Applebloom so we can find out what Zecora is planning" Roxas said.
"Are ya Crazy, Roxas?, putting my younger sister in danger?, what's wrong with you" Applejack answered.
"Come on I been to a lot of things before, I'm sure u can protect your little sister, besides, you were to busy discussing and not doing anything about it"Roxas said.
"Ghhhh, fine but we all going"Applejack said.
"Then let's hit the road" Rainbow said.
The group was following Zecora to the everfree forest, Applebloom decided to get closer to Zecora, following her from a very short distance, meanwhile the others were following Applebloom route.
But without noticing the group encounter a small trail of blue flowers. Zecora just found out that she was being followed by Roxas and company.
She found out that the group was about to touch the flowers so she decided to gave them an advice.
"Beware! Beware, you pony folk! Those leaves of blue are not a joke!"
Applejack scoops Apple Bloom off the ground while the other ponies, save Twilight, Roxas, and Fluttershy, taunt the zebra and ignore her warning.
On their way back, Twilight tries to explain to her friends the difference between magic and Zecora's "curses" but to no avail.
Twilight classifies the "curses" as harmless and fictional "pony tales". However, Applejack warns her that some "pony tales" are indeed true.
''Like Nightmare Moon'' Roxas stated but he also says to her:
''unless we have more info on what she does for a living we shouldn't judge her so soon like that it isn't fair guys''.
As the ponies leave the forest, they all trot through the "blue flowers" except for Apple Bloom, who is carried out on Applejack's back.
When Applejack, Applebloom and Roxas arrived at the farm, Roxas ask to Applejack if they could talk alone for a moment.
"Hey sorry about earlier in the morning, I was kind of rough"Roxas said.
"Its ok, I guess that I care too much for ma little sister, I got carried away" Applejack said apologizing with Roxas.
"But hey, no hard feelings right?"Roxas said.
"Right...and...one thing Roxas"Applejack said.
"What's up"
"I Saw you in the bed with Twilight"Applejack said.
"Uhh, its n...not what you think" Roxas said a little nervous.
Applejack hugged him and whispered to his hear.
"I can help you with your nightmares too"
"R...R....really?, Thanks Applejack" Roxas said.
"See ya later in the morning, tell me if you have nightmares" Applejack said going to bed.
Roxas also went to his bedroom, but something was different he felt "funny".
He took off his black coat and started sleeping.
Day 11: Unexpected Consequences.
When Roxas awoken his body felt really weird and his voice was lighter, so he went to the bathroom to fresh up when he did it he look himself in the mirror.
What he saw make him really surprise, a sudden change in his appearance, Roxas was no longer a stallion but a mare so he started to smack his face a little to see if he was dreaming but nope he wasn't and he started freaking out.
"aaaaaaaah, what happened, why do I looked like Larxene, oooooh nooo" she said.
''Ok ok there has to be an explanation for all of this, would it be that this world's magic must be affecting my powers or it could be something else hmm I got it, Twilight will know what to do''.
"But first, ESUNA" Roxas screamed but nothing happened.
"Allright so it's not a negative effect, then it must be a weird transformation"
As she went out of the bathroom Applebloom was about to go in until she saw a mare come out of there
''Hey who are you and what are you doing in my house''?
''Applebloom its me Roxas we met after you and your sister founded me passed out on your family's farm''.
''Roxas why the hay are you a mare what happen to you''? Apple bloom asked.
''I'm just confuse as you are I have no idea on how this happen which is why I'm going to Twilight for help''.
''First lets go get applejack''.
When they arrive to her room they saw no sight of her until they heard a voice on the floor surprising them both, Roxas was the first to speak.
''You have got to be kidding me you too applejack your the size of an ant''.
''Roxas your a mare, now ok something weird is going on here,sugarcube we need to find somepony who can help us''. tiny applejack says
''We're on our way to get Twilight, hang tight on my back sister''. apple bloom says as she picks up her sister with her hoof.
''Hold it I'm taking my cloak with me because I am not going out there looking like a mare that'll attract unnecessary attention''. Roxas said as he grabs his black cloak from his room.
When they arrive at Twilight's home they saw that their other friends were there as well each with an ailment of their own Pinkie Pie's now blue-spotted tongue is swollen to the point of hanging out of her mouth, and she can't speak intelligibly or without spitting, Rainbow Dash's wings have been inverted and moved from her back to her lower sides, preventing her from flying properly and causing her to crash constantly, Rarity's mane and tail are messy and her coat has grown so long that she cannot see or walk properly, Fluttershy is afflicted with a deep-sounding male voice, and Twilight have her horn turned soft, wobbly, and covered in blue spots that's messing up her ability to cast magic. Roxas pulls down his black hood to show the girls what happen to his body last night they were surprise seeing him as a mare each one speaking their own thoughts about him like that.
"Oh my you're a pretty girl"Rarity said.
"Hahahah, look at that, I bet you can get a stallion in one day"Rainbow said.
"GIRLS!!, this is not the time"Roxas said angry.
"What do you think happened to us"
"I'll tell you that Zebra cast a curse on us"Applejack said.
"Yeavjjenk" pinkie pie tried to say.
"I dont think so, I didn't heard a weird word or anything related"Roxas said.
"But you don't know truly what kind of words are triggering the curse, dear" Rarity said.
"Roxas right, we cant rely on that, there has to be something else were missing" Twilight said.
"Look at me"Applebloom said.
"Why a'm not the only one cursed" Applebloom said.
"Well that's a good point, she was the closest to Zecora" Roxas said.
"I'm going to get some answers " Applebloom said.
As Apple Bloom leaves, Applejack wonders aloud where she is going and jumps into her tail. When the others notice Applejack is missing, they first worriedly check to see if they've stepped or sat on her. Upon realizing that Apple Bloom is also gone, the ponies realize she must have gone after Zecora again and set out in search of her.
As the ponies leave, Roxas says he'll stay behind to continue look for a cure but not without summoning the Equestrian trio to look after the mane 6 in his absence. He tap his hooves on the ground and says to his nobodies
''Sky trooper, Arcane mages, Earth fighter you will accompany my friends here to the Everfree Forest, protect them from anything and anyone that tries to hurt them all at cost and follow their orders as if they were my own''.
The nobodies nod and says
''As you wish master''.
Meanwhile on her way through the Everfree Forest, Applejack reveals herself in Apple Bloom's mane.
"What are ya think you're doing, turn around immediately"Applejack said.
"Nope, you can't do anything while you're I'm that shape"Applebloom answered placing her sister on a tree branch.
When the others enter the forest later, Rainbow Dash crashes into the tree Applejack was left in, accidentally catching the tiny pony in with her mouth.
Applejack pulls herself out and quickly fashions a bit and reins from leaves, a stick, and some vine.
She throws it on Rainbow Dash and, climbing onto her chest, helps to steer her in the right direction. As the group progress further into the forest Rarity took advantage of the situation and said:
''So Twilight now that all of us are here can you mind telling us about why Roxas was sleeping with you in your bed last night hmm''.
That comment make the group turn their attention towards her.
"Seriously you want this chat now?" Twilight asked really blushed.
''Twilight, Roxas gave us nobody bodyguards to protect us so we're fine, what happen last night that made you two cling together so closely''. Rarity said.
Twilight began turning red and said:
''We didn't do anything intimate just slept and snuggle together that's all, Roxas was having a nightmare about his Leader making us suffering in front of him in order to break him from the inside, so I was able to stop it before it got worse for him resulting in Roxas being able to call upon his nobody guards and wanting to hold me so he doesn't encounter it again''.
"Is that really the only thing you do?" Rainbow asked.
''Well after I brought him to my bedroom I asked him to take off his black cloak so we can sleep together more comfortable and when we did, it was going well until he started to have another nightmare so I gave him a kiss on the cheek and nuzzle him which in turn made him hug me tightly and using his hooves and one of his wings to rub and touch my body and flank all over the place which cause me to the same to him with my hooves and tail touching his body, wings, and flank''. Twilight said
''How did it feel having a stallion wrap around your hooves sugarcube''? Applejack asked.
''It was...amazing unlike anything I ever done before in my life...and I like it when we did those things to each other'' Twilight said with a sincere smile as the blush is still on her face.
''Ohhh looks like somepony gotta crush on the stallion in our group''. Rarity says giddy.
''Well Roxas is truly an extraordinary being who can do unique things and can cast magic without being a unicorn who wouldn't want to take a liking to him''.
Twilight's friends all sigh together and nod in agreement making twilight suspect that her friends have crushes on Roxas as well so she asked them:
''Okay since we're all talking about Roxas raise your hoof if you have a crush on him too''.
Twilight's friends cringe and look at each other for a bit until 5 hooves were lifted up in the air confirming twilight's suspicions.
''Oh boy this might be a problem but we'll have to settle this for another time girls we can work this out later for now we got to get ourselves back to normal'' Twilight says.
The mane 5 agree and continue with there advance to find Apple bloom and Zecora.
As for Roxas he manage to find a cure for him and his friends aliments in a Book called Supernaturals: Natural Remedies and Cure-alls That Are Simply Super". So after he found what they were looking forward he was about to rush after them but then he realizes that he can summon dark corridors to places that he's already been too and to places that he never been to before.
"What I'm I doing" Roxas though summoning the Dark corridor.
He reappear at the entrance of the Everfree Forest and ran inside after his friends.
When the others finally reach Zecora's hut Twilight says to the trio'' sky trooper recon the area to make sure that its safe and as for you mages and fighters hold positions and stand guard for us''.
They did as they were told and summon out their weapons to prepare for the worst the pegais with their hidden blades and electric kunai wings, the earth ponies with their gauntlets, and the unicorns with the mage staff a few minutes later the sky Trooper nobodie came back
" the area is secure, no signs of traps or danger around"
The group press forward and they watch through zecora's window how she mixes a strange concoction in her cauldron, chanting something in an unknown language.
Twilight starts to wondering whether Zecora might be "bad" after all.
When she overhears the zebra mentioning Apple Bloom, she concludes that Zecora is preparing a soup to eat her with.
The other four ponies scream in horror.
"Equestrian trio, capture the Lady zebra inside the house" Rainbow dash said.
The nobodies do what they were told so they entered a captured Zecora dropping the cauldron on the process.
Then Rainbow and Applejack rushed to the hut breaking one of the walls.
The other girls arrived to the house.
Everyone except for Twilight was confronting Zecora about the Curse she threw to them.
"I m going to make you paid for what you did to my mane"Rarity said.
"Yeah and for my voice" Fluttershy said.
"Think you can kidnap my little sister" Applejack said.
"Stop please, she is not bad" Applebloom said.
Just at the right moment Roxas arrived to the scene.
"Wait!!!!" he/she screamed.
"The brew she was doing was a cure for our disease"Roxas said.
"The truth about our condition is that the blue flowers we en Yesterday were funny poison ivy"Roxas said helping Zecora stand up.
After hearing the truth the mane 5 apologized to Zecora for judging her without knowing her in the first place.
''Maybe next time you will take a second look, and not judge the cover of the book''. Zecora said.
"Did she just made a rhyme?" Roxas asked Applebloom.
"Yeah I think so"
"Well Zecora what do we need to make the remedy bath" Twilight asked.
"A herb that grows in ponyville"Zecora said.
"Come with us we will introduce you to the others" Twilight said.
"Go first I still need things to do" Zecora said.
As everyone were leaving, Zecora mentioned something about Roxas.
"YOU, I can fell emptiness inside you, you are half light, half dark, you settle down in the Twilight or in the down, your past is incomplete and you search answers, come to see me when you have time" Zecora said freaking out Roxas.
"What was that?" Roxas thought.
When the group returned to ponyville Twilight introduced Zecora to everyone in the town, telling that she wasn't an enemy or a sorceress, she was just a witch doctor.
After the introduction the group took a bath in the spa.
"So girls, what do you learn today" Roxas asked.
''Not to jump to conclusions to someone that looks shady and scary without having more evidences that shows that individual is causing harm to anyone we learned our lessons''. Everypony responded.
Twilight then gave her Friendship report in a voiceover. One of the spa ponies asked Zecora for the recipe of her "luxurious" herbal bath, then all the ponies became cured of their poison joke afflictions, after briefly panicking over not finding Applejack.
'' Well don't just stand in that tiny cup applejack hop in the big tub where the party is at''. Roxas said.
"All right you asked for it, CANNONBALL" Applejack screamed making everyone laugh at her dramatic finish.
''I'm so glad I'm not a mare anymore the last I need is to have stallions following me every where I go'' roxas said.
''Well I for one think you look absolutely gorgeous and cute as a mare Roxas''rarity said giggling a little while the others agree with her.
"Uhhh...thanks I guess" he answered.
"I almost forgot, let me explain why I can summon nobodies"
Roxas explained the story about when he joined the organization, Xemnas give him the ability to control one type of nobody but after having the nightmare he was able to control the new type.
Roxas proceeded to show the Samurai nobodies to his friends.
Rarity was amazed with the design of the beast that the look of the creature, give her new ideas for her shop.
After they saw them, Roxas made them disappear and swarm towards the center of the water.
He then grab all the girls into a group hug with his wings.
When they ask him why he was doing this Roxas said:
''I don't know why, girls but something inside me just tells me to glow with the flow and enjoy this moment and I really like hugging you guys it makes me feel safe and happy''.
Then he use his wings to rub their bodies and flanks underwater the girls all starts to have blushes on their faces as they felt Roxas touching each of their bodies and cutie mark's flanks again tenderly like the first time so they all embrace him together tightly to continue their special moment with him and sighing blissfully in Roxas's presences as they all get lost being around the stallion that they all starting to show signs of wanting to be more than a friend to him.
