Pikatwig:The final chapter of the mini-arc. And thanks to Twi and Dash last time, we know where the first scene is, right aibou.
KKD: Yea, we sure do, aibou. And I'm looking forward to hearing the news.
Pikatwig: Yea, now all Dashie and Twilly need is the approval of Shining Armor and Cadence.
KKD: Yea, that's the news I was talking about. Now, should I set the Disclaimers up?
Twilight: Please hurry.
Dash: Yea, we're getting a little antsy over here.
KKD: On it! *pulls down the Disclaimer screen via magic.*
DISCLAIMERS: As with most, neither KKD nor Pikatwig own any of the franchises involved, including, but not limited to, Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, Super Sentai, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, or anything else used here; they are owned by their respective owners such as Toei, Bandai, Shotaro Ishinomori, Hasbro, Lauren Faust, The Hub, etc.
"Twilight… I'm a bit nervous…" Dash whispered, waiting for either Cadence or Shining Armor to allow them into the throne room.
"Relax, Dash. Cadence had a feeling we might have had feelings for each other, now we're just gonna confirm them to her if she shows up," Twilight told Dash.
"You may enter," Flash Sentry told them, not hearing what ever it was they were talking about.
The two ponies entered the Throne room, and looked to see Cadence was indeed there, alongside her husband.
"Thank Sentry. Will you please excuse us?" Cadence requested, "I wish to talk with my sister-in-law and her friend in privacy, please."
"Of course," Flash Sentry nodded, closing the door, and then Shining Armor simply walked up. "So Twilly, what's up?"
"Remember when you thought I was falling for Rainbow Dash here?" Twilight started, making Dash blush a bit, hiding behind her marefriend.
"You thought that Cadence? When was that?" Shining Armor gawked a bit.
"Yesterday," Cadence informed.
"Well… I… I wanted to let you know… I do have feelings for her. In fact… I love her," Twilight answered, "In fact, we're officially marefriends."
Shining Armor, who was sipping water, spat it out, and it landed right on Dash, soaking her mane. However, the rainbow maned pegasus just shook the water right off.
"Uh… Twilly? Did I just hear you right? 'Cause it sounded like you were implying that you two are lesbians," Shining Armor replied.
"We are," they both said proudly, and Shining Armor fainted.
(Cue Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger opening theme)

Chapter 7: Gold Sparkle
"...Is he okay?" Dash asked.
"Yea… this is normal. When something big and shocking happens, this is normal," Twilight told Dash.
"I hope so…" Dash sighed as Cadence helped her husband up, splashing some cold water in his face to wake him up.
"...Twilight… I don't know what to say," Shining Armor informed.
"How about, 'yes'?" Dash asked.
"Dashie. Please don't influnce my B.B.B.F.F.'s decision on this, okay? I want his answer to be honest," Twilight told Dash.
"Oh… sorry," Rainbow Dash apologized.
"Have you told mom and dad about this?" Shining Armor asked.
"Yea, I sent them a letter before telling you, and they actually are willing to support me on this," Twilight told her brother with a smile.
"Let me see this letter," Armor requested as Twilight nodded, handing him the letter via her magic, which Shining Armor examined.
"Well, I give you my blessing Twilight." Cadence started, walking over to her sister-in-law. "How about we dance… just like our filly days?"
"Oh!" Twilight realized, nodding in response as they started their little dance.
"Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake! Clap your hooves and do a little shake!" they recited while performing this dance.
"Cute…" Dash giggled.
"Thanks. It's our secret hoofshake we used to do when I was a filly and Cadence was my foalsitter," Twilight told Dash.
"I have made my choice," Shining Armor started, making Dash & Twi smiled, "My answer on the matter… is no."
"Aw… but Armor? Why?" Twilight whined.
"Relax, Twilly. This is temporary… I just want Rainbow Dash to prove herself first, so I can see how she treats you. You can be marefriends… just don't make it official until later, okay?"
"Phew…" Twilight smiled, hugging her brother, and then hugging Dash.
"Now remember Dash. If you want my blessing as well, you'll need to make sure to prove how well you can treat her. Understand?" Shining Armor replied, staring at the rainbow-maned pegasus, who gulped in response.
"I can follow them around and take notes," Cadence offered.
"Please do, dear," Armor nodded.
"Why is Cadence here?" Applejack asked an hour later.
"That's a bit of a personal matter right now, AJ," Twilight informed.
"Okay… but I don't feel comfy with her staring at me…"
"Um… Cadence? Could you please stop staring at the others?" Twilight asked Cadence.
"Sorry, for a moment, I was trying to place myself in your hooves, trying to understand what it is you kinda like about liking other mares. Terribly sorry other Gokaigers," Cadence apologized, making the rest of the Mane 6 stare at her when she called them 'other Gokaigers'.
"And the whole 'other Gokaigers' thing is to refer to you in a quick manner," Cadence assured, "I mean, I know who you are as individual ponies, but it would take too long if I referred to each of your names one at a time."
"Oh, okay," the others nodded.
"So Twilight… looking really beautiful right now…" Dash complimented.
"...Thanks, Dashie," Twilight blushed and smiled in response. Cadence wrote something down in a note pad.
This seemed to happen a lot while Twi & Dash were together. Whether they were eating, grooming each other, or simply hanging out, Cadence wrote the notes about them down.
"Okay Twi… can I ask you something? Y'know how you call me 'Dashie' and I call you 'Twi'? I was thinking… how about we come up with cute nicknames for each-other that only we can call the other," Dash asked.
"Sure Dash. What did you have in mind?" Twilight asked.
"Well, I was thinking… Twil," Dash suggested.
"Twil? …Sounds cute. Then, how about I call you… Bowy?" Twilight asked.
"Bowy? ...I like it," Dash nodded, "Thanks, Twil."
"No prob Bowy," Twilight giggled, giving Dash a kiss on the cheek.
"So what now, Twil?"
"Okay… 'gave each-other cute nicknames. Dash came up with 'Twil' and Twilly came up with 'Bowy' and they are the only ones to call each-other by those nicknames'." Cadence said to herself, as she wrote it down.
"Okay, so now we have all of the sixth senshi keys." Dash smiled.
"Actually, all but two," Pinkie informed.
"What two are those?"
"Virtualranger and Mataranger," Pinkie informed.
"Not surprising; we don't even have the full sets of the main Ranger Keys of those teams," Dash noted.
"I love how you're resourceful about the Super Sentai Dashie," Twilight smiled.
"Well, you helped me get into reading in the first place for me to get this knowledge, Twilly," Dash replied back with her own smile.
Twi and Dash then hugged for a moment, and smiled. They then walked over to a nearby couch and began to relax. "So Bowy, wanna head for an amusement park?" Twilight asked.
"Sadly, we can't. I looked at the rules, and it says 'no same gender couples allowed'." Dash sighed.
"Good point… wait… didn't Armor say we aren't making this official yet?"
"It's really technical, if they even see anypony of the same gender even acting lovey-dovey, out they go."
"Oh… poo," Twilight sighed, feeling down all of a sudden. Dash then began to rub Twi's backside, making her smile. "Thanks… you just know how to make me feel good, don't you, Dashie?"
"Guess I do," Dash smiled.
"May we go for a short flight? I really want to get moving around," Twilight asked.
"Sure thing," Dash nodded as they flew up and outside the GokaiGalleon for a while. "By the way, I noticed you actually did a Sonic Rainboom when you came to save me. That was amazing!"
"I really just wanted to save you… it was during that moment when I realized… I'm in love with you," Twilight informed.
"Really?" Dash blushed, the two of them still flying around, "Wow…"
However, unknown to the two happy mares, Black Bounty soon approached the Galleon, and threw a knockout agent into it, causing everypony to fall asleep.
"Perfect. Now to bring the prizes to the Neo-Zangyack," Black Bounty smirked.
Later, Twilight and Dash arrived, and saw the Galleon was empty, except for the asleep Spike and Scootaloo.
"Spike!/Scoots!" Twilight and Rainbow Dash gasped, respectively, before each approaching the two, trying to wake them up.
"Twilight…" Spike said waking up, and moving the Ranger Key Chest out from under a couch.
"Spike, what happened?!" Twilight asked her friend, whom she considered a baby brother.
"Some sort of knock out gas hit the galleon, I managed to hide the chest, but… someone came in and kidnapped Rarity and the others, and Cadence was also taken," Spike groaned, going through a checklist of the keys to make sure none were missing.
"This is terrible!" Twilight gasped.
"Yea. And I know who did it! Black Bounty! Don't you see. He's gonna turn the others over to Celestia, get us all into who knows how much trouble, and then start a mare-hunt for me since he knows I'm GokaiSilver… and WORSE! Cadence will be mistaken to be you Twilight!" Dash panicked.
"I doubt it, Dash. Celestia wouldn't be so dumb as to confuse Cadence for me," Twilight replied, "And with that, Celestia wouldn't hand Cadence over to the Neo-Zangyack."
"I didn't mean, you, you. I meant GokaiRed you!"
Then it hit her, "Oh, you're right! They never saw us in pony form, and they'd assume Cadence would be GokaiRed seeing GokaiRed is the only alicorn of the team, and Cadence was onboard at the time! Now we REALLY have to go save the others!"
"Gokai Change!" Dash shouted, flying fast, and turning into GokaiSilver to cut off Black Bounty, who was using his magic to carry the other Mane 4 and Cadence.
"You…" Black Bounty growled when he saw Silver.
"Leave! My! Friends! ALONE!" Silver roared as she attacked him, and managed to destroy his sword weapon, and knock his whip away. But then, he began to use powerful spells and knock Silver to the ground when luckily, Twilight finally showed up. She began to pant, before taking out her Ranger Key.
"Gokai Change!"
=GO~KAIGER!=
Twilight ran forward, her senshi suit forming as she ran and then attacked.
"Dash, I'll distract him, you gotta combine the Ranger Keys to use Gold Mode!" Red shouted.
"Got it, Red!" Silver nodded as Black Bounty gawked at what was happening. Red quickly cast an ivisbility spell on Cadence, before Black Bounty could notice, but he looked at GokaiRed, and soon looked in his spell bubble to see Cadence was gone.
"Wha-How'd you get out of there?!" he gasped.
"You ain't gonna know," Red smirked when Black Bounty turned to see GokaiSilver holding her Cellular & an anchor-shaped golden key.
"GOKAI CHANGE!" she shouted, inserting the key in the bottom of the cellular instead of the chamber.
=GO~KAISILVER! GOLD MO~DE!=
With that, the bandana fell over Silver's golden visor, forming a black one with a white outline as a piece of golden armor, adorned with the helmets of Dragonranger, Kibaranger, Kingranger, MegaSilver, TimeFire, GaoSilver, Shurikenger, AbareKiller, the Go-On Wings, ShinkenGold, & GoseiKnight fell on top of her & formed new armor.
"GoookaiSilver! Goooold Mode!" GokaiSilver announced in her new form.
"Silver… Gold?! MAKE UP YOUR MIND!" Black Bounty roared.
"Keep your muzzle shut!" GokaiRed snapped, before seeing that the armor was missing four sixth Senshi, excluding the still missing Ranger Keys of the Virtualrangers and Matarangers; "Uh Dash… aren't you missing a few?
"This was the original gold mode, it'd be silly to add the other four keys now," Silver noted.
"RIght. ...Carry on."
With that, GokaiSilver aimed her GokaiSpear, now looking like an anchor tip instead of a trident, and slashing away at Black Bounty, knocking the spell off by hitting his horn, and injuring him. He soon began to bleed, and was still alive, as Red got the others a safe distance, and then Black Bounty groaned, as he glared at Dash.
"Go on you dummy. Finish me off," Black Bounty growled, as Dash reverted back to normal and walked away. "Wait! Get back here! Why won't you finish me off?!"
"...Because I'm not like you. I only wanted to teach you a lesson, not kill you. And the lesson: Never… EVER! Mess with me or my friends! And also… you can forget your threats now, I'm indeed a lesbian, and PROUD of it!" Dash answered, "Besides, I think it's more fitting to let you suffer the pain and torture the same way I did… beaten… but still alive to feel the pain."
"That was really amazing Dashie. I'm proud that you stopped when you had to," Twilight complimented.
"Thanks. ...If I didn't stop… I would prove I was no better than that monster," Dash replied.
"That's a good lesson. So Dash… you deserve a reward," Twilight giggled, kissing her. A bit surprised at first, Dash just let herself melt into the passion and kissed Twilight back.
"Heh… that's enough to prove to Shining that you two should get his blessing," Cadence informed, surprising the two mares.
"You… You really think so?" Dash gawked.
"Oh, Twilly, hey," Shining waved, as he got up from a seat at a cafe he was relaxing at.
"AH! Sh-Shining Armor! Wh-What're you doing here?" Twilight gawked in response.
"Relaxing," Shining answered.
"That's it?" Dash asked, a bit confused.
"Yea. I was about to head back to meet with you, but now I don't need to," Shining Armor replied as Cadence gave him the notes she took, including some bits added with how Twilight & Dash helped each other in combat (which was explained after she and the others awoke.). "All of it looks good."
Dash smiled widely, as Shining Armor walked over. "You have my approval. Congratulations Dashie."
Dashie just squealed with joy before she and Twilight hugged each other in joy.
"So I may have a new sister-in-law," Cadence said jokingly.
"It's definitely possible," Pinkie nodded.
Later that day, Twilight was giddy as giddy could be, when an idea hit her, and she rushed to Dash's room on the Galleon.
"Bowy, I have a great idea!" Twilight smiled, getting Dash's attention.
"What is it, Twil?" Dash asked.
"Why don't you move into my room?" Twilight offered, making Dash gasp.
"...Y-You mean it?"
Twilight simply nodded with a wide smile, hoping her marefriend would say yes.
"...Oh you bet I would!" Rainbow Dash smiled, hugging her marefriend.
"Thank you Rainbow!" Twilight thanked.
"...You're welcome, Twilight," Dash replied back before giving Twilight a kiss.
Dash then gathered her stuff, and got into Twilight's bedroom, smiling all the way.
"This is gonna be so great!" Dash giggled.
"It sure will," Twilight added as Dash unpacked her things and set them up, with a little help from Twilight.
"I sure am beat…" Twilight yawned, as she flew into her bed, and left part of the covers open for Dash to get in.
"Yea… it's been a crazy day," Dash admitted, joining Twilight in bed, "...Just curious… when can I meet your parents so we can show them who your lucky marefriend is?"
"Soon, but for now, sleep," Twilight insisted as she pulled the covers up over them.
"Okay… good night… my Princess," Rainbow Dash yawned before falling asleep. Twilight giggled and stroked Dash's mane for a moment, before falling asleep.
In the Dream World, Rainbow Dash found herself standing before an altar, dressed in a wedding dress as she saw her mom nearby, and Twilights family across from her. She looked around and saw many ponies gathered around as if waiting for something, but Dash soon put two-and-two together as she saw the scene before her and smiled. She saw the rest of the Mane 6 watching, all but Twilight.
Then a nearby door opened up, and Spike, who was over at the piano, began to play. Dash could only smile wider as she saw Twilight walking down the aisle, wearing one of the most beautiful dresses Rarity made for the occasion. The Cutie Mark Crusaders, who alll had their Cutie Marks at this point, were being flower girls for Twilight, before they moved away and then Twilight and Dash looked up at the altar, seeing the pony there was Princess Celestia.
"Mares and gentlecolts, we are gathered her today to celebrate the union of Princess Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash. The strength of their commitment is clear. The power of their love, undeniable. May we have the rings, please?" Celestia spoke as Dash & Twilight took a couple rings they had, smiled, and exchanged them with each other. "I now pronounce you wedded mares."
With a cheering all around, Twilight and Dash hugged and kissed each other at the wonderful news.
From close by Luna smiled at the two, simply happy they were happy.
Pikatwig: Awwww! Kawaii~!
KKD: Yea… *smiles widely at the pretty sight.* It was nice of Luna for them to have this dream.
Twilight: Wait… that was a dream?
Dash: It felt very real to us…
Pikatwig: Sorry, but you'll have to wait before you can officially get married and all. But you will be, okay?
Dash: ...Yea… I think so. What about you, Twi?
Twilight: I can wait. Plus, maybe we can get a reprisal of 'Love Is In Bloom' for that day.
Pikatwig: Yea, that's a good song. Oh, and fun fact about it in My Little Pony: Tomodachi wa Mahou, it wasn't dubbed into Japanese, the original signing was left in tact, but it just got subtitled.
Twilight: Wow! I guess it made quite the impact.
Pikatwig: Anyway, while you two are here, mind us asking your thoughts on the mini-arc?
Dash: Wait… you mean us?
Pikatwig: Yep.
Dash: Oh… well… I gotta admit… I thought it was very nice. Plus, you both worked for about two days to complete. That's gotta show some determination. I'm glad you guys support us being together. What about you, Twi?
Twilight: It was really sweet, pulling off a Sonic Rainboom was amazing, seeing a new Grand Power, was also amazing. But… nothing was more amazing than me and my little Dashie become a couple...
Dash: *blushes* Aww…
KKD: I gotta be honest first off, I'm not normally into same-sex pairings, but if I were to pick one, I'd definitely support you two all the way. This mini-arc was by far one of my favorites so far. Well… it's the first, so I guess it's my favorite trio of chapters so far… eh, look who's talking.
Pikatwig: I really liked the mini-arc as well, I really liked it, and same about the whole not into same gender couples, but if I had to support one, it would be Twidash.
Twilight & Dash: Thanks you guys.
Pikatwig: Okay, now onto favorite parts. Dash, you first.
Dash: Well… You guys should know by now that my favorite parts involve me and Twi here. Especially when we got full support for our love. But I guess GoZyuBuster was a close second.
Twilight: For me, it was just us becoming a couple.
KKD: That's very nice. For this chapter, I really liked that last dream sequence you had. But I also like how we were able to bring in the gold mode for GokaiSilver this chapter. For the entire mini-arc, it'd be you two being a couple, and maybe GouZyuBuster as well.
Pikatwig: Mine was simply the wedding. Anyway, end of time. Just Live More.
KKD: Jaa ne!
Dash: Thanks for reading the story so far everypony. Keep reading to support me and Twilight, because we're not done yet, and the story is practically getting started. See ya later!
Twilight: Yea, please keep on reading the story, and keep support me and my little Dashie. *the two blushed before kissing, and then KKD, still an alicorn, used his magic to create and iris out effect, ending the chapter*
