My New Terrarian Adventure
Chapter 8
Previous Chapter Next ChapterRainbow Dash woke up due to the sun’s rays beating down on her eyelids. Yesterday was a good day, until Big threw her into the bed and basically ‘bedded her’ by holding onto her sides so tight she couldn’t get up. Then worst of all she fell asleep with Rainbow still being crushed by her powerful arms. At some point in the night Big loosened her grip and Rainbow was able to get into a comfortable position.
Although because of this, she wasn’t able to get to sleep until midnight and only after her muscles stopped aching from lying on one side for so long. She was sure she fell asleep on the right side of the bed while Big found herself comfortable on the left and facing away from her. Rainbow had a good dream, filled with images of the sky and being able to fly around at great speeds. It was exhilarating and terrifying at the same time. The wind blew through her mane and the adrenaline coursing through her body along with the tight high speed turns that had a high risk of her losing control and falling to her death. And despite how terrifying the details of the tricks she was doing were, she didn’t have a care in the world of getting hurt because of how exhilarating it was.
Rainbow’s perception of the room began to increase and she quickly realized she was warmer than normal. Rainbow Dash was nestled up against Big in a strange way. Big’s right hoof was over Rainbow’s chest while her left one was under Rainbow’s pillow. Rainbow was in the center of the bed while Big seemed to have moved her in the night to be closer. It still wasn’t troubling her because Big was her double. Although she did feel a little strange when she realized her flanks were tucked between Big’s legs.
Rainbow Dash blushed heavily when she realized her tail was wrapped around Big’s. It was also moved in a way that Big couldn’t have moved her own tail around Rainbow’s because her tail curved upward around the base of Big’s tail and around multiple times until their tail tips came close to touching. Big began to stir when Rainbow tried to readjust her tail without waking her and she froze up.
Big opened her eyes and instantly noticed the awkward situation they were in.
“Uh-uh.” stuttered Rainbow. “Sorry.” she tried to roll over to the other side of the bed but was held back by Big’s arm that still wrapped around her.
“We’re each other, remember? This is ok.” Big replied softly and nuzzled Rainbow’s ear before lightly nibbling on it, causing Rainbow Dash to blush.
“Please don’t.” Rainbow protested calmly.
“Sure.” answered Big, nuzzling back in with her double.
Rainbow Dash decided to push herself up against Big and she leaned her head back, so it was in Big’s face. Big responded by grinning and lowering her head down so Rainbow’s hair wouldn’t get in the way of her breathing. They stayed like that for several minutes until they needed to move again to stay comfortable. Rainbow turned to face Big with a smile and nuzzled her nose with Big’s.
“Hey.” whispered Rainbow Dash.
“Yeah?” whispered Big.
“Can you move to the center of the bed?” Rainbow asked while unraveling her tail from Big’s and scooted to her right.
“Uh, sure.” Big scooted to the middle where Rainbow looked at her mischievously.
“Don’t move.” she whispered.
Rainbow Dash lowered her left hoof toward Big’s stomach and put her hoof between her legs. Big gave her a questioning gaze before Rainbow pushed Big’s hind legs apart. Rainbow then lifted her body over Big’s and put her hindlegs around Big’s waist so their torsos would be adjacent to each other. Rainbow tried to wrap her tail around Big’s and had trouble getting under it. Big gave her a soft smile, lifted her tail and started wrapping it around Rainbow’s. Rainbow put her forehooves around Big and Big did the same with her. Big’s wings extended outwards and wrapped around Rainbow’s back.
They laid there in a compromising position for several minutes, before they both felt wide awake enough to get up and start the day. Rainbow was the one who stood up first and Big followed her shortly after. Rainbow Dash walked out of the bedroom and into the hallway, leaving big alone for a few moments.
“Hey Big, you want to shower?” called Rainbow from in front of the stairs.
Big thought for a moment. “Nah, I’ll go head around town for a little while.” came Big's reply, from Rainbow’s room.
“Ok! I’ll see you at the hospital. I want to check on Twilight!”
Big walked into the hallway and watched Rainbow’s tail enter the bathroom, and the door closed behind her. Big looked to her left and turned to walk down the stairs to the first floor of her double’s home. She took a few steps down the stairs and when she got half way down the stairs there was a knock at the door. Big felt obligated to open the door and see who it is. Big hesitantly trotted up to the door and opened it.
Behind it was her old weather boss from Cloudsdale, before she took up a weather job in Ponyville. He had a grey coat and blue mane and tail. Rainbow looked up to him once, before she outclassed him and was asked to form a weather team in Ponyville. She took it without hesitation, because Fluttershy was in Ponyville and she always wanted to be able to meet back up with her after Gilda left.
“Rainbow we need you for cloud…” he suddenly realized he wasn’t eye level with the mare in front of him and looked up at the confused expression on her employees face. “…Rainbow?” he asked slowly.
“Huh? Oh no no no-” Big smiled and waved her hoof dismissively. “-I’m Rainbow’s identical twin. Rainbow Dash is in the shower and is getting ready. Want me to tell her you’re here?”
“Uh...” he stammered, still blown away at how big Big was. “S-sure.”
“Ok then. Come in and sit down, while I tell her.” Big motioned to her right which was where the living room was.
“O-ok.” Rainbow’s boss said hesitantly and walked into living room and sat down on the nearest couch.
Big turned to go upstairs, but thought about how different this world was, and decided to ask a few simple questions. “Oh hey, are you my sisters’ boss?” she asked.
“Uh yeah, I’m weather manager for Ponyville.” he responded.
“You sure? I thought I saw you in Cloudsdale before.” Big replied while raising her eyebrow skeptically.
“Oh, well that’s because Ponyville hasn’t had any real weather team and they asked me to move here to take up the position, since no other promising flight school candidate came out of Cloudsdale recently. I’ll be out of here when they find a new one and I’ll be back in Cloudsdale. Although, I’m liking the simpler life and I’m thinking of staying here.” He said relaxing when he found a topic he liked.
The sound of water running upstairs was an indication that there was another pony in the house and Rainbow’s bosses’ eyes went from skeptical and wary to understanding.
“So, I take it you didn’t think I was Rainbow’s sister?” asked Big with a sly smile.
“W-well yes, I didn’t believe you because I have yet to hear Rainbow talk about her sister. Surely someone that important would have come up after how long I’ve known her.”
“Yeah, Rainbow and I had a few problems in the past and we’re only just getting back in touch. I’ve got a lot of stuff in the Zebra lands that I’ve been doing, and since then we’ve only rarely been able to actually talk and work out our differences. It’s been a while since I’ve seen her in… a long while.” Big admitted solemnly.
“Oh, I understand. I’ll let you two decide if you want to tell me anymore of your history together, so I won’t pry.” he smiled softly.
“Thanks dude.” replied Big as she trotted upstairs.
Big got to the top of the stairs and took a left but made sure her boss wasn’t coming up after her. She then trotted to her left and opened the door on her left side and went into the bathroom. She shut the door behind her and looked at the bathtub with a curtain on the far right corner of the room from the door. Rainbow Dash noticed someone in the bathroom but couldn’t see past the curtain.
“Big, is that you?” she asked.
Big thought of all the possibilities she could have done to screw with her other self, but decided it wasn’t worth it because of the current situation downstairs and the fact that the ears that it was attached to might hear the two mares playing around in the shower.
“Yeah, I’m here. Your boss is downstairs, and you’re late for work.”
“WHAT?! OH NO! Sorry Big, I guess I forgot I have work! I’ll meet you later ok?” Rainbow exclaimed frantically washing the shampoo through her hair on the other side of the curtain.
“Ok then. Oh, and if anypony asks, I’m your sister that you’d rather not talk about ok?”
“Uh sure, why not talk about you?”
“Cuz, we only just got back in contact after years of separation and a lot of fighting.” Big stated.
“Ok, I can remember that.” responded Rainbow Dash as she finished rinsing her hair and turned off the water.
She quickly got out of the bathtub, pushed the curtain out of the way and stepped on the floor mat. She grabbed a towel and began drying herself off with haste while Big opened up the door and retreated out into the hallway. Big waited for a minute as the sink turned on and off indicating that Rainbow brushed her teeth and then was ready to leave. Rainbow opened the door and smiled at Big as she passed her.
Rainbow Dash got to the stairs and… walked right past them.
“Hey, where are you going?” asked Big.
Rainbow turned her head and gave her a quizzical look. “Uh to brush my mane?” came her reply.
“No, go to work.”
“B-but my mane!”
“Work, then mane.” retorted Big.
“No!”
Rainbow turned to enter her room, but was pulled back by her tail. She looked around to see Big dragging her by the tail and down the steps. Each step she went down made an audible ‘thunk’ as she went down each one. Big looked to her right when the living room came into view, and saw her old boss with a drop-jawed, quizzical expression that showed his disapproval of the current situation, but also hid some entertainment he was getting from it. Of course Big was smiling as she dragged her ‘sister’ down the wooden stairs, while Rainbow held the murderous scowl on her face.
“Ok, she’s right here.” stated Big once she finally got Rainbow at the bottom of the stairs. “Take her and get out.” Big ordered, with a huge grin.
“REALLY!?!?” shouted Rainbow.
“Uh, thank you, but that was a bit eccentric. I’m sure she could have come down on her own time. We aren’t that late.” he reasoned as he trotted over to the front door.
“Yeah, but then I wouldn’t be able to keep her from combing her mane. So good bye, you two.” Big replied, holding the door open and motioning them out.
Rainbow Dash glared at Big, and Big responded with a wink and they parted ways. Rainbow and her boss left the home and Big closed the door behind them.
“Your sister told me you two sometimes don’t get along.” stated Rainbow’s boss, and they spread their wings and took off. “I’m beginning to see why.”
“Yeah, but she’s family you know.” Rainbow replied solemnly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Big walked over to the couch with a blank expression and sat down.
“Ok Puppet Master. Rainbow Dash. I need to admit to you two something.” started Isis.
“Uh, sure go ahead.” responded Rainbow Dash.
“I can’t come on these adventures with you two. I know I’ve not helped much since we started, but I realize now that it’s not because I don’t want to, but because I can’t. Puppet Master you remember my old life more than anyone. I never went with you on these adventures. I just took up space in your home, while I told you how much corruption and Hallow was in the world.”
“Yeah, I see where you’re going. And to be honest, I don’t like you here with us if you’re doing so little. So, I guess what you’re saying is… we need a home.” replied Puppet Master.
“Exactly. A place where I can get enough power to send you two to any dimension you want, to go and when we die, we’d come back to. A place where we can rest and hide from our enemies, while we come up with ways to beat them, or even just put our stuff when the inventory is too full.” reasoned Isis.
“But Isis...” started Puppet Master. “To do something like that, we need a barren world or even another universe to be able to give you power, and for you to be able to use it to send us to other worlds. So we’d need a lot of power to do that. You think maybe we should go back to that Dragonball Z world? It had a lot of life and we can use that to create a universe.” elaborated Puppet Master.
“Well to be honest...” started Isis. “Creating a universe is easier than you think. Filling it up is another story though.” Isis’s spirit seemed to feel embarrassment.
“Then we’ll help you do it. How do we fill it up?”
“Well we need World Builders to help us.” stated Isis.
“What?”
“Yes, World Builders. They are spirits that are used to create matter, and after billions of years that matter will follow the laws of the universe and begin to form planets or whatever the Creator wants it to be. Although since you yourself are a Creator, you don’t need to follow these laws. You can just imagine a world, and then I can empower your thoughts to create it.”
“Then I will come to you when I have an idea. I’ll think about it for a while then. Rainbow, you can handle yourself while I don’t advise you right?”
“Heck yeah!” Rainbow announced cheerfully.
“Good. Now maybe you should leave and explore the new Ponyville a bit, so you don’t get cheap-shot by something unexpected.”
Big nodded her head and stood up from the couch. She walked around it, toward the door and swung it open, to be greeted by the afternoon sun. She walked out and closed the door behind her and looked around at all the ponies she remembered from Ponyville. Most of which she didn’t recognize but saw enough of in her world to know they were naturally native to the small earth pony town. She then looked at the skies and spread her wings. Beating them hard, she soared into the air with great speeds and headed toward none other than Sweet Apple Acres.

OH HAY GUIS!
Just wondering if there are any stories you want to see Puppet Master in. Like let's take an example of My Little Dashie and you want to see him in that. (NEVER GOING TO DO THAT!)
But maybe another fic that you want to see him in. Tell me now so I can get permission from author and I can work it into my story.
Oh and movies and TV show's count.
