Chapter 21: Really? Now how could that have happened?

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Alexander and Luna were sitting comfortably at the dining room table, each of them occasionally cast a small smile at the other when Discord could be hear panicking.

Discord popped into the room with a huge grin as guards rushed by the golden doors.

"Discord, is there something wrong?" Luna asked as she sipped her coffee.

"Oh, it's just horrible!" He said dramatically putting a paw to his fore-head. "Someone has trapped our dear Princess Celestia in a suit of armor! Oh the horror!"

"Oh no!" Alexander said with a grin. "I wonder who could have done such a thing like that? We must find the fiend who has committed the deed and bring them in! But first, we shall rescue our dear princess! Discord, teleport us!"

Discord nodded and snapped his talon, depositing them in Celestia's room. The first thing they noticed was the amount of guards inside, next the pair of guards with a crowbar trying to get the armor off the solar alicorn, and finally, Celestia glaring up at them with a large blush.

"Sister, what happened?" Luna said putting a hoof to her shoulder.

Celestia tried to speak, but not even a sound could be heard from her. Luna, forcing a smirk back, leaned down and put her ear to the muzzle of the helmet. She merely shrugged as her sister glared at Alexander.

"Do not worry, I will set you free." Alexander said while he didn't even try to keep his smile from showing.

Putting a hoof to the armor, it split apart and he took the helmet off her. She lit her horn and teleported out, and into the bathroom.

As the guards left, the sound of a toilet flushing was heard and shortly after, Celestia came out red in the face. The two alicorns and Draconequus didn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing. She folded her ears back as she stared down at the floor.

"Oh god! Your face was priceless!" Alex laughed.

"Did you see how much she blushing? It looked like she had a tomato for a head!" Luna laughed.

"She looked so ridiculous!" Discord laughed. "This is the best prank I've ever seen!"

"Which one of you did this? Alexander?" She said making him quiet down. "That was your armor, and you've said it yourself that nopony touches it. So, how did I get in there last night?"

"Magic?" He replied.

"For some odd reason, when I tried to teleport out, nothing happened. It's almost as if the armor kept me inside. Do you have any other excuse?" She asked tapping a hoof.

"Because I love you?"

"Alexander," she said walking up to him. "That was by far the worst thing to have happened to me in any morning. Unless Discord cooked breakfast." She muttered the last part under her breath. "I think a punishment is in order, for all of you." She said glaring at her sister and step-brother.

"Discord," she said making him gulp. "How would you care to polish both mine and Luna's regalia?"

"...You make me do that anyway." He said.

"Without magic. Just a cloth, soap, and water." She said smiling.

"You monster! You know the only thing I can really grab is food and your sister's-"

"Discord! Not the time, nor place!" Luna said as she looked away her cheeks turning a dark purple.

"As for you sister," Celestia said. "Go down to Ponyville to get fitted for a maid's outfit. You're-"

"Can't she use the one she has already?" Discord asked. "I think that would suit her just fine." He grinned as Luna blushed even more.

"No. Discord, we've talked about you and my sister's... Activities, are to remain in the bedroom. Your, bedroom specifically." She said making him frown. "As for what I was saying, you, dear sister, get to clean my room, and yours with no magic."

"What is with you and making us clean?" Luna asked as she left the room. "I'll be back. Please try not to make a mess of things while I'm gone."

As she left the room with her head down, Celestia turned her sights on Alexander as he was slipping into his armor. He stopped and waved before sneezing. Snorting some snot back up, he shook his head only to find himself looking into two magenta eyes.

"Yes?" He said leaning back.

"Follow me. Your punishment is going to be the worst out of them all. I wouldn't want you to feel left out, now would I?" She said giving him a small smile. "Just give me some time to freshen up. I still have bed mane."

She pushed Discord and Alexander out of her room, shutting the door they soon heard the sound of running water. Discord blindfolded himself and teleported back in, seconds after his head came through the wall.

"Do I even want to know?" Alex asked as Discord got his eyes back into focus. "Were you being a peeping tom?"

"No. I flushed the toilet while the shower was on." He chuckled. "There's a reason why she put a sound dimming sound in her bathroom." He chuckled. "Oh, and here you go."

He opened his mouth and a picture fell out. Alex picked it up, but keeping an eye on Discord in case it was a trick. When he looked at it, his face blanked and he slid it into his armor.

"If she finds it," Discord whispered. "You got it from Shining Armor."

"Agreed." He said. "Now, about having a blindfold on." He said narrowing his eyes.

He raised a hoof back and punched, sending Discord through the hole he was in and into the back wall. Looking in, he narrowed his eyes as Discord picked himself up. As he was doing so, the water turned off and Celestia came out, a towel wrapped around her flank and momentarily stopped to look between the two.

"Could I have some privacy?" She asked. "Now?"

"Discord, don't you have something that belongs to her?" Alexander said. "Something you took of her?"

"Discord, what is he talking about?" She said immediately glaring at the Draconequus.

The Draconequus in question was staring at the two of them, he gulped and snapped his talon quickly. As they looked around, Alex saw a small light coming from his armor. Pulling at it, he realized the picture had been set aflame.

"Discord, what was that?" Celestia asked. "Were you pasting memory photos again?"

"Memory photos? What are those?" Alexander asked.

"I'll explain later." She said. "Now get out!"

She flung Discord out with her magic, and Alexander merely took his head out the wall. As the Draconequus slid across the hall to his door, he looked at Alexander.

"It was before I was married." He said. "A memory photo is something I created. It basically takes a memory, and makes it into a photo."

"So you weren't being a peeping tom?" He asked.

"No! I have a wife!" He yelled. "Speaking of mares though, have you heard about Spike and Fluttershy? She said he asked her out yesterday."

"Oh yeah, I was wondering when he'd do that." He said grinning. "Tell him if he needs any help, come to me."

"You just locked your marefriend in a suit of armor. I don't think I'd want dating advice from you." He said giving him a flat stare.

"I would hope you're not taking any dating advice," Celestia said stepping out. "Otherwise you'll have to deal with me and my sister's wrath. Now, Discord, be a good little trouble maker and attend to you given task while I take Alexander to his." She said giving him her crown. "Make sure to polish the gemstone twice, it smudges so easily." She laughed as he frowned.

As she led Alexander away, Discord merely looked at the crown before turning it to cheese and the red gemstone into an olive. Eating that, and then hacking it up when he got a hair caught in his throat, he narrowed his eyes before teleporting himself to the library.

"Time to get to work." He muttered. "I just hope, for his sake, and hers, I'm wrong." He shuddered.

In the hallway's of the castle

"So," Celestia said looking at Alexander. "How long has it been attached to you?"

"What? My armor? I wouldn't say it's-"

"Not that, the lunar magic around you." She said. "I sensed trace amounts of it with Nightmare inhabiting your mind. Recently though, it has grown exponentially to where I sometimes mistake your energy for my sister's. Has something happened to you?"

"Not that I know of. Unless your sister has started experimenting on me while I'm asleep." He shrugged. "Where are we going? I'm bored already."

"You'll know once we get there, and I promise," she put her mouth to his ear and whispered lightly. "You won't be bored for long." She giggled pulling away.

His face flushed and the blood in his head, was quickly traveling elsewhere as he thought of the implications behind her words.

"What's wrong Alexander?" She asked with a lip biting pout. "Is there something bothering you? You looked stressed, maybe I can help you with some of that? Maybe even help you take a load off?" she winked at the word load making his face turned even more crimson.

"U-Uh... S-Sure... T-That sounds g-great!" He said sweating. "Is it getting hot in here? I'm suddenly starting to feel a bit hot, don't you?" He asked smiling.

"You know, being a mare does have its benefits." Celestia giggled as he caught on. "It is so easy to mess with a stallion such as yourself. But I wasn't lying when I said you'd be having fun once we get to where we need to be. Now, come along, we need to get to the statue gardens."

"You are such a tease!" He said. "Do you know how constricting this armor is? And you go and do that?" He said looking away. "Great, now I'm going to need a cold shower. Would you care to join me?" He asked suddenly turning the tables on her.

"W-Wouldn't the cold water take care of... That?" She asked looking away. "I-I don't really see how I-I could help."

"Oh, but you could just get in front of me," he stepped towards her. "I could sit behind you," he gave her a small kiss on the lips and pulled away, smirking as she leaned forward slightly with her lips puckered. "And then you'd throw me out because I'd be showering with you." He laughed. "Come on! Get moving, your highness."

She blinked and blushed as he laughed at her. Smiling, she lit her horn before teleporting them both, all except Alexander's armor that was left to stand unguarded.

A nearby lunar stallion saw the helmet sitting on the back of it and looked around. Seeing no other guards, or royalty, he crept up to it with a mischievous glint in his eyes. As he was reaching out to it, Cinnamon popped out from the opening in the armor and fixed her eyes on him. Giving a shrill hiss, he quickly backed away without a glance.

Royal statue gardens

Celestia was still smiling when they appeared in the gardens, it quickly turned into a blush once she saw Alexander.

"S-Sorry!" She said looking away. "I, uh, didn't know you were still-"

He had already got on his belly and was glaring at her. Looking away he sighed and closed his eyes.

She peeked back over, and seeing him just laying on the ground, she allowed herself to face him again. As he was laying there, eyes closed and his breathing coming and going in steady breaths, she started to notice how the sun reflected off his coat.

Looking at him, she traced his broad shoulders up to his neck, his short cut mane, the silver of his hooves, his smirk as he looked at her.

She blinked and blushed as he stood up. He gave her a playful nudge in the shoulder before adjusting the chain around his shoulder, as to not have his hammer fall out.

"So, what exactly is out here for me to do? Clean the statues, trim the hedges, water the plants?" He asked. "Corral the animals around here, or help with the weather?"

"Actually, you job requires only one of the statues." She said feeling her blush go down. "See those hedges over there?" She pointed behind herself at a ring of horn high hedges. "Your punishment is in the middle of them."

He looked past her and at the hedges. She began to move towards them, and nodded forward as a sign for him to follow. Going up next to her, he squinted, trying to make out what was being concealed within.

"You punishment is to help reform the one trapped within the statue," she said. "You have already met. And, as you know, he was the largest annoyance in all of Equestria. He was even worse then when Discord was evil."

They approached the hedges, she moved the foliage out of the way and he stuck his head in. What he saw made him frown.

"You want me to help reform that douche in spandex?" He asked staring at the petrified Spiderman.

"Yes," she said. "You may use physical force, you must also keep an eye on him at all times, and absolutely do not let him in Canterlot. Otherwise, I'll just have Discord put him in the caves below the castle. I prefer the latter of the two. But, I'm sure you can handle him just fine."

They stood in silence, staring at the petrified superhero, forever in the state of flicking something off with both fingers.

"So, how do we get him out?" Alex asked. "Don't we need the elements?"

"No, just free him like we did Discord. Hit him." She said. "Doesn't matter where, as long as the stone cracks."

He shrugged and took out his hammer, the end opened up to reveal a set of blue ridges that looked even darker as electricity danced across them. As he pressed the hammer on the statue, it began to vibrate on its pedestal. Taking it off after a few seconds, the stone had one large crack that was rapidly spreading through the middle of it.

With one final crack, the two halves broke and Spiderman was left standing again, still giving them the double bird. Slowly, he looked to the sides and put his hands on his hips.

"Sup bitches, your pimp daddy is back."

Author's Notes:

Yeah. I brought him back.

Now to prepare for the Spiderman thread in the comments... I'll need Fluttershy.
