Author Note: Hello Readers! Yes, I'm back and my laptop is just like new! No more waiting for youtube to load anymore for this author! This chapter isn't one of my exciting chapters but I thought I try something when I was typing this story. Also I kind of started ranting somewhere in the story and I sort of stopped understanding what I was even typing. So if you have a problem with the chapter, I'll probably go back and rework on it. But I still hope everyone enjoy the chapter.
(Everfree Forest, Basil's Base/Home)
The situation for Basil was not good for him, not good at all. His powers was currently going through the power glitch again, he had no weapons, and the fact of five out of six girls were becoming too close to him stalled his magic.
Twilight and her friends had somehow found where his secret base made into the rocky cliffs and hidden behind a waterfall. Basil was so sure he wouldn't be caught so easily and without a fight, this wasn't in his plans for getting home at all. He was expecting any kind of torture that he has seen in every anime, manga, games, and movies trying to prepare himself for the pain. But what he hadn't thought about was seduction; it just seemed so little to none chances of happening in his lifetime.
But here was the girls surrounding him like he was prey for their little fun time while he was fighting back unknown feelings inside of him. Twilight moved behind Basil as Applejack moved in front of him smiling like this was a game. Twilight wrapped her arms around Basil neck and whispered the instructions in his ear, "This is how this is going to work; we're going to ask our little questions and you're going to answer them." Basil reacted by scowling.
But this didn't stop Twilight from running her hands down his chest and continuing, "But if you don't answer our questions; we get to… play with your fear."
He looked at Twilight's smiling face completely shocked with his face losing all color. Basil quickly tried to remember if he told anyone about his secret fear and a memory from when he first got captured came rushing back.
"Cadence!" Basil shouted in his mind to get revenge if he ever got the chance.
Continuing on she left off, Twilight started rubbing his chest with her hands making him flinch, "But if you answer our question, we'll stop and move onto the next question." She stopped to prove her point by stopping.
Basil was looking down avoiding any eye contact thinking on how soft her hands felt rubbing his chest even though he was wearing a jacket. Rarity seemed to have noticed his jacket and grabbed his hand and placed another hand under his chin to make him look at her.
"Would you be a dear and remove that jacket of yours. We can't fully enjoy this if you're hiding under that jacket now can we?" She asked feigning the fact that she leaned towards him giving full view of the top of her breasts to Basil. He looked away blushing trying to get the image out of his head by shaking his head roughly
The reaction proved to the girls that he was indeed afraid of females and that this was going to be easier than they thought.
Rainbow Dash smiled evilly after waiting for a few seconds and singingly said, "Uh oh, somepony already forgot the answering our question rule." The other girls smiled as well while Basil berated himself in his mind.
Rarity's hand reached over to his cheek and forced him over to her so she could hug his face in her breasts. Basil's body jolted for a second before it started shaking with his face turning red. Rarity let out a slight moan as she said, "Oh Basil, I didn't know you were into this kind of pleasure already?"
Basil's face turned even redder as he pushed himself away from the hug and quickly unzipped his jacket and threw it like it was on fire. Rarity smiled as she raised her dagger with a light blue glow levitating the jacket in the air and folding it neatly.
Applejack patted his head and said while eyeing his body, "Now ain't that much better?"
Basil looked down to his body and saw that he still looked normal for a normal teen but was starting to get muscle tone. He sighed thinking on why his body seemed to be changing.
Twilight stepped forward and smiled, "Now let's begin the game now shall we? My first question is: how are you able to do magic without your weapon?"
Not thinking it was important, he answered smirking, "I used this bracelet to channel my magic through it. This proved much easier to use then my sword for fighting other magic users."
She stepped forward observing his bracelet while her friends, except Fluttershy, cursed in their minds that he was able to answer.
Rainbow Dash stepped up next and asked her question, "How were you able to turn into that half fish thing back there?"
That question got the girls smiling when Basil seemed to look away thinking on wither or not he should answer. Rainbow placed both her hands on the arm rests as she leaned forward smirking staring into his eyes.
"You know, once you run out of time. I get to have my fun with you."
That encouraged Basil to lean back and answered quickly, "I can alter my form to fit the power I need. Like that merman form you saw."
Rainbow Dash was glad she got the answer out of him but cursed in her mind at the same time. Applejack got on her knees and rested her elbow on the arm rest as she questioned Basil.
"And what exactly is this power of yours? You've better think before lyin' to me, I'm the element of honesty I'll have you know."
Basil steeled his nerves as he decided to stand his ground and turned away sharply. The blonde cowgirl smiled as she took off her hat, "Looks like we've got ourselves a rule breaker."
She was about to touch Basil when she saw Fluttershy looked back and forth from him and to the floor.
Applejack smirked playfully as she called to her shy friend, "I'm thinkin' I may need help with this one. Fluttershy, could you possibly hold his shoulders down while I do my thing?"
Fluttershy looked up surprised but began to glow red in the face at the same time as Basil. He looked back to the shy girl and back to Applejack and tried to think of a vague answer to give.
But he felt a pair of hands grab his shoulders and softly forced him back to his chair. Basil looked up to see Fluttershy avoiding his gaze as she stuttered, "S-s-sorry to d-do this, but we w-w-would oh so much like to hear your answer."
Applejack smiled for her shy friend helping her as she lustfully stared at her captive. She stood up and sat over Basil on the chair making him shrink under her.
"Now don't scared of little ol' me Basil. I promise ah don't bite… much." She said leaning over him.
Basil tried moving away but Fluttershy wanting to help her friend held him from moving. Applejack smirked as she leaned down lower to Basil's face and were touching nose to nose. Basil quickly folded and yelled out, "Alright damn it! I'll answer the question, just get off of me!"
She quickly hopped off and Basil roughly shoved away from Fluttershy making her eep in fear. He brushed off imaginary dust as he looked away, "This power of mine seems to derive from my worlds' fictional world."
"Fictional world?" Rainbow Dash questioned not believing it.
"My world has many books, tv shows, games, and many other things that isn't real. But I've spent a huge part of my life enjoying the fictional world instead of real life. And I gotta say, best twelve years of my life." Basil smiled thinking back to all his days of doing nothing but read books, playing games, and watching tv.
Applejack frowned at his ideal lifestyle and asked, "But don' you think you're wasting your life like that?"
The mood in the room turned from seduction questioning to awkward silence and the girls stared at Basil as he hid his eyes under his bangs. He had indifferent frown as he spoke, "Next question."
"Now hold on now. You still haven't answered mah question." Applejack protested.
Basil looked up with a glare and intimidating glare, "I said next question." He finished with his eyes glowing for a quick second. The girls flinched under his glare wondering if they took the questioning too far. But the fear vanished when Basil flinched in pain and put his hand over his hip.
Twilight saw a faint glow and jumped up with another question, "What's wrong with your hip?"
"Nothing." Basil said feeling no pain anymore and going back to leaning his head back on his arm for support.
Her friends soon backed her up by surrounding his chair, Basil tried to keep calm but he didn't like the look Pinkie and Rainbow were giving him.
Sighing knowing he wouldn't be able to get out of the question unless he could get over his fear in seconds.
"Fine it's just my whatever mark or something."
"You have a cutie mark? Can I see it uh uh uh?" Pinkie Pie asked getting closer wanting to see his mark and invading his personal space.
"No!" Basil yelled shutting down her request.
Twilight herself was also interested in the mark grabbed him by his hands and pulled him up, "I would actually like to see your cutie mark as well."
Basil blushed knowing what that would that meant; he would have to lower his shorts down in front of girls. He crossed his arms in an x-formation while denying, "No way in cold hell will I show you."
Twilight and Basil stared down each other not wanting to back down. Even though she was a girl; Basil didn't want to follow orders that would make him embarrassed. Pinkie Pie not seeing a winner being chosen sneaked up behind Basil and gave him a quick peck on the cheek.
Even though it was a small kiss the results were perfect; he looked normal but his faced slowly turned to a shocked red face. It stunned him long enough for Pinkie to unbuckle his belt and pull one half of his shorts to see his cutie mark.
His cutie mark shown on his hip and was revealed for everypony to see. Basil couldn't move from the shock of being pants which made him think to his high school life, "This is the cafeteria incident all over again! Just not all the way."
Twilight and her friends looked over the cutie mark wondering what it meant which Rarity asked, "What does this unusual mark mean. I've seen many cutie marks but I've never seen something like this."
Basil looked down at his mark but became confused, "That's odd, the black part seems bigger." The yin side was now noticeable to be over taking the yang side but it still had some white parts viewable. While this sort of proved his smart guess, the fact that darkness seemed to be taking over frighten Basil a little.
He turned to the others who were still waiting for an answer but he didn't think they would take the truth so easily. So he instead told them a straight faced lie, "It means I'm not the nicest person but that doesn't mean I'm all bad. This white part means there is some good in me but I have a hard time expressing it."
It wasn't much of a bad lie but he figured a little earth knowledge couldn't hurt. The girls gave his cutie mark one last look before accepting the lie but Applejack looked deep in thought but agreed with her friends.
Pulling his pants up, Basil was grumbling curses and the treatment he was getting left and right. Pinkie Pie came from behind him and hugged him with her breasts pressing up against his back making him shudder from the feeling.
"My turn to ask a question! Hmm, what should I ask?" Pinkie wondered aloud tapping her chin.
Basil whispered aloud trying to mimic Rainbow's voice, "Ask him about him about his favorite food."
Rainbow Dash looked offended on how unreal he sounded but Pinkie had an idea, "Are you a virgin?" The question was so surprising and horrifying for Basil that he hung his head down passing out while standing.
The girls all wanted to ask that certain question as well but couldn't mostly because they were too embarrassed to ask. But now that Pinkie has asked, they turned to Basil with an eerie smile. Applejack quickly gave Basil a slap across the face that made him awake alerted.
He looked around to see Pinkie still hugging him and the others waiting for his answer, even Fluttershy seemed to have stepped closer so she could hear. Basil remained silent until he started feeling kisses on his neck.
Shuddering from the unknown feeling, Basil yelled, "What the heck are you doing Pinkie!"
"Remember silly Billy, if you don't answer a question. I get to play this little game with you." Pinkie said without stopping.
Twilight had joined in by standing too close to his chest that her breasts were pressed up against him. Rarity with a swing in her hips and grabbed his one of his hands and placed it on her bare shoulder. Applejack grabbed his other hand placed it on over her hip. Rainbow Dash wanted to see his erection one more time so tried pulling down his shorts but he kept squirming. Fluttershy had a huge blush and tried to turn away but couldn't and continued to watch.
Basil was very close to thinking he was having a heart attack; his heart beating faster than car engine, his blood flow was speeding up inside, and his mind was slowly going blank from the guilty pleasure he was feeling. He finally couldn't take it anymore and with his powers coming back freaked out.
He took his hands back and grabbed Twilight before throwing her gently over his chair. He spun around forcing the others to back away. Basil stopped and grabbed both Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash by their arms and went back to spinning at high speed making him look like a mini twister. After giving them motion sickness, he threw them gently over the chair and they landed on top of Twilight. He looked towards Applejack and Rarity looking very upset and lifted them in the air with his magic. Basil then made them crash into each other not softly but not hard either. They looked a little daze when he floated them over their friends and dropped them. He then looked to Fluttershy who stood there watching the whole thing and she could clearly see he was upset and was greatly embarrassed. Basil silently walked over to her and grabbed her by her shoulders, lifted her off the ground and placed her on top of her friends.
He took a few seconds to calm down before yelling, "Ok enough! I get it already, I'll talk and yes I'm a fucking virgin! Just stop with the sexual harassment!"
Twilight was grunting from all the weight on her back but said apologetically, "I'm sorry Basil, I guess we did sort of took that a bit far."
She flinched under his red eye gaze as he stared at her with a 'that's it?' look. Twilight looked away and asked hoping she was right, "Maybe we did take it far?
Basil wanted to argue and make them take responsibility but his head and chest were hurting and muttered, "That'll do… I guess."
He sat back down on his chair with a heavy slump and closed his eyes for a few seconds. The girls all got off each other and looked at Basil wondering if he was really ok. They walked around him but stayed their distance in case he was still angry. Only Pinkie didn't seem afraid and sat on one of the arms rests making Basil look up at her with one eye. She only smiled at him and waved while he stared for a minute closing his eyes.
"So is this all the questions right now, because if so then please leave."
"Look we're sorry for taking that bit too far but we still need to question you." Twilight said sincerely sorry which Basil took note of.
Sighing with the want of getting this over with, he opened his eyes which were a little red, "Fine, ask any question and I'll answer it truthfully this time."
"How were you able to- oh hold on." She started but reached for her staff but Basil held up a hand to stop her. He pulled off his bracelet and held it out to her.
"Here, I'm too tired right now to use magic so you can use it."
Twilight reached out and grabbed it and was impressed that something so small and compact could still be used for magic.
Rarity looked over her friends' shoulder and marveled in the cute trend that could start with the bracelet, "How did you ever come up with the idea using fine jewelry such as this. You could be the very first stallion start an Equestria wide trend! Look at the gems you used to make it look exactly like your cutie mark and using a gold ring was simply brilliant."
Even though he was tired from everything that has happened, that didn't stop him feeling praised and a little bit of his nerdy ego grew a bit, "Thanks for to praise but I'm sure someone else would have come by sooner or later and discover this trick even if I didn't show up."
Applejack patted his back saying proudly, "Not only is he strong, he's modest too. Keep this up and Twilight might be in for a little competition."
Basil had no idea what she was talking about but the look on Twilight's face told him she knew, "Applejack! We are getting off track here so please let's get back to business." She scolded while putting on the bracelet.
Twilight decided to test out her temporary item and channeled her magic making it glow purple. Happy with the feel of the bracelet, she levitated a quill and a notebook in the air from her pockets.
"Now back to questioning you; how exactly did Discord contact you even though he was in stone?"
"It was after I placed Fluttershy back in your room, I had walked through the garden when I saw his statue with a crack in the middle. It then I started hearing a voice in my head telling me he could help me get back home. I didn't want to trust him at first but the prize of going home seemed so perfect and within reach that I took it." Basil said looking away still a bit ashamed he betrayed everyone's trust.
Twilights' quill had written everything he had said which amazed him and making him think on how easy homework and chores would be with magic.
She was about to ask another question but felt a tap on her shoulder and Fluttershy shyly asked, "Can I ask the next question please."
Twilight nodded to her friend and stepped aside allowing the shy girl to stand in front of Basil. Fluttershy tried to muster up the courage to speak but Basil looking at her made her feel odd. Now he knew that the girl was shy but he was never one for beating around the bush when it came to someone wanting something from him.
"If you have something you want to say then just say it already!" Basil said annoyed.
Fluttershy hid behind her hair in response to his tone and apologetically said, "Sorry, never mind."
The other five girls all stared at Basil giving him a 'look what you've done' look which he tried to ignore but started sweating under their gaze. Applejack silently pointed towards Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash motioned him to try again. Rarity said with her hands for him to be nicer and calmer around her. Basil tried to ignore them but gave in when he saw Twilight's soft eyes asking him to try again.
Taking a deep breath then breathing out, he calmly said, "I'm sorry if I sounded mean and annoyed, Fluttershy. Just please ask me the question so we can carry on."
The girl's around sighed knowing what he said wasn't any different but Fluttershy looked between the gap in her hair. She could see his blank look on his face but his eyes told another thing; they were studying her and looked to the side time to time.
Fluttershy calmed her breathing and looked Basil right in his scary red eyes and said, "M-m-my question is more about your diet and this new body of o-ours." He nodded understanding the statement and motioned for her to continue.
She nodded took another deep breath, "In that b-book of yours, I saw that your diet included…" Fluttershy couldn't ask her question because of what the others might think.
But for Basil, that wasn't a problem, he has ears and a good brain to solve problems. He took what he knows and what he thought would be different between him, the human, and the girls and their people, the used to be ponies, and figured it out.
Snapping his fingers for effect, Basil smiled and said, "I already know what you want to ask me. It's about what you read in the human diet isn't it?"
Everypony was surprised to say the least that Basil is able to figure out an unknown question, but all Fluttershy could do was nod. He then placed one leg over the other like he was bored and smiled as he said, "Please don't judge me when I say: yes, I do eat meat like a carnivore."
The girls gasped that somepony would eat another creature just to eat and live. Fluttershy seemed really sad about this fact but what he said next calmed her and her friends, "Don't get all uptight about one little fact. If you must know I'm also a vegetarian. I eat both meat and non-meat; that makes me an omnivore."
Twilight who had been writing down everything, looked up and questioned, "that means you don't have to eat meat to live right?"
"Exactly! Now onto your other question that has you so worried." Basil said eyeing Fluttershy and she knew what he was going to say next and clamped her eyes shut.
"You want to know if that means you and everyone else can eat meat as well." Everyone including the quill stopped and silence filled the room.
Basil looked up to see that their faces were either horrified, shocked, or in Fluttershy's case, scared of the answer he'd give. He looked at their faces wondering what he could say to them; he could give them hope and tell them what he had been thinking the first night in Canterlot Tower. Or he could give them the horrible news and tell them bluntly.
He closed his eyes and thought before answering, "to answer your question, I must first tell you what I think about this worlds' little… transformation."
The girls watched as he stood up and the feeling in the air felt pleasant, "In my world, humans have always been known as the greatest predator. Now can any of you tell why's that?"
"Oh! Is it because they have powers like yours?" Pinkie asked with her hand up.
"Nice try but no. These powers of mine only started forming when I arrived here so no one else has these powers but me."
"Is it because humans have something special about them? Rarity asked with her hand half raised.
The girls didn't want to say anything but they felt like they were back in school. Basil pointed his finger towards Rarity and said.
"Yes, but that's too vague for me to accept try again."
Twilight held up her hand and said with an anguish look, "Can you tell us already! The suspense of not knowing is killing me!"
Basil looked at the purple haired girl and thought with an amuse smirk, "Her too huh?"
He slammed his foot to the ground and shouted, "It's because we are able to use tools and able to adapt to any situation that comes our way!" The girls jumped when the whole floor shook slightly but let him continue, "We, since the cavemen times, have used tools to hunt for our food and we continued to evolve afterwards to survive better in the world. And that is the word I can use at best to explain this… evolution."
He started pacing back in forth deep in thought as he explained, "You and everyone else I've met says you were once ponies. Now taking this into the fact you've changed physically means that somehow, your DNA had somehow gone under mutation and evolved everyone in this world. With that in mind, since everyone were once ponies, I figure at best that you can eat meat," Fluttershy started shaking with tears coming from the corners of her eyes but Basil continued, "but that doesn't mean you have to eat meat!"
Everypony looked up at Basil in confusion when Rainbow Dash got up, "Hold up! You just said we can eat meat but now you're saying we don't have to at the same time."
He snapped his fingers towards Rainbow saying, "Exactly! You see, back in my world; people have made choices to wither or not to eat meat and they seem happy. So since you girls were once ponies, it's your choice if you want to eat meat or not."
Basil felt really tired after explaining all that and sat back down and almost fell asleep when he was tackled by a hugging Fluttershy, "Oh thank you thank you thank you! I've been so worried about the whole meat thing, that I thought I was going to have to send my animal friends away to protect them!" She shouted happily while Basil tried to regain balance so the chair would tip over.
He was blushing red when he felt two large breast pressing up against him and he shouted, "What did I say about sexual harassment! Fine, you're welcome now get off me!"
Fluttershy lifted herself off Basil with her wings but she was still smiling.
Twilight was already halfway through her notebook when she looked towards her friends, "Anypony else want to ask him a question?"
Rarity shot her hand up and walked towards the tired human, "IF you wouldn't mind answering, how did you make such a marvelous looking home? The ground seems so smooth that you can almost see your own reflection!" She finished looking at herself in her marble-like reflection.
Basil was having a tough time staying awake but he answered the best he could, "Marble is basically earth *yawn* but refined and polished so I transmuted the earth to make this…" he almost dozed off but woke himself up for a second, "marble! Does that explain your question?"
But to his annoyance and disbelief, Rarity was still looking at her reflection not even listening to anything he had just said. Basil hung his head down and sat his back against his chair closing his eyes.
Rainbow got up and shook him, "Hey stay awake. We can't have you falling asleep during interrogation."
He didn't seem to hear her because his vision was getting blurry and all he heard were slow motion type sounds. Not liking being ignored, she tried to think of a way to wake Basil up and keep him up. She then had a brilliant idea that would work and make her impression on Basil.
She grabbed his face with both hands and brought him towards her and kissed him on the lips. The other five gasped at her boldness but none were more shocked and surprise than Basil. At first he didn't know what was going on, he felt something moist go over his lips and pressed against them. He slowly opened his eyes to see Rainbow Dash in front of him with her eyes closed. He opened his mouth to say something but the second he did, she snaked her tongue into his mouth making him freeze. She explored his mouth memorizing every inch of his mouth with her tongue before pulling back.
Basil just sat there wide eyed even as a trail of saliva linked to their mouths. Rainbow snuggled up to him and purred, "Did that wake you up?"
Applejack silently cursed her luck for waiting too long and now Rainbow Dash was ahead of her. Rarity tried to look away from such vulgar activities but couldn't help but stare at his reaction. Fluttershy was looking down looking flushed as she witnessed her friend kissing Basil. Pinkie Pie was jumping up and down asking if she could have a turn with Basil. Twilight was looking worried towards him and her friend wondering if she should warn Rainbow.
Basil could feel his heartbeat skip a few beats before it started gaining speed and getting faster and faster. His once slow heartbeat was now started beating faster than he ever felt before and before he know it, his head slumped down unmoving.
The girls could only watch in silent until Pinkie bluntly asked, "Did you kill him, Dashie?"
They then started doing everything they could to wake him back up but in Basil's mind, he was K.O'ed. it was only with a strange blue spark that shocked his body and making his chest jump did he wake up. But he didn't wake up quietly; he actually awoke screaming slowly but loudly.
He checked his body to make sure nothing was fried and sighed with relief. But when Basil looked up at Rainbow, he couldn't help but snort and almost laugh. Her hair was frizzled and the ends of her hair was black.
Her friends on the other hand started laughing in good nature and when Rainbow saw herself in the marble, even she started laughing. Basil was trying to hold in his laughter not wanting to laugh during his interrogation. But the funny look that he thought were only possible to television shows or anime got to him.
He started chuckling at first, but then it moved to a normal laugh. But with the help with Pinkie pulling a feather from behind her back and tickling Basil with it that he started laughing his hardest and loudest along with the Mane Six.
They had calmed down after laughing for so long that Pinkie was on the ground trying to catch her breath.
Basil had to wipe a tear made from all the laughing and said with a smile, "While I may not like this world very much," the girls looked chest fallen but he continued, "But meeting you girls and that one lieutenant showed me I could at least trust you while I'm stuck here."
Twilight and her friends all smiled to finally have the full complete trust of Basils.
After all the commotion were over, Twilight had one more duty from the princess to do.
She coughed to get everyponies attention and pulled out a letter from her pocket and held it out for Basil, "This is a personal letter from Princess Celestia stating your judgment from couldn't believe that after all that trust and hope he gave Twilight and her friends and she goes and give him his judgment letter? He looked at the letter with slight disgust wondering what the great princess of the sun have in store for him.
Deciding to just get it over with, Basil unrolled the letter and begun reading.
Dear Basil,
This letter you are receiving is not just judgment letter but also a report about your actions in Canterlot. It turns out the evidence Discord found was sadly true, the Royal Council has been doing many things behind mine and my sisters' back. The Royal Council is hereby disbanded until a new council can be chosen, so until then, I'll be the one judging you. After your actions from Canterlot; I feel you may be dangerous for the citizens of Equestria. But after your actions from the Discord incident, I feel that you can be trusted and you know right from wrong. So with I, Princess Celestia of Canterlot, hereby absolve all charges set against you. I would also like to fully welcome you to Equestria with full citizenship until you are able to return home. This way you can never be chased by the Royal Guard ever again. I hope to hear great things from you Basil and also hope to see you again under different circumstances.
From Princess Celestia
Basil read the letter and reread over again to make sure he didn't miss anything important. After making sure he read everything, he rolled the letter back up and pointed at Twilight, "Is this some kind of joke?"
Twilight smiled and held out a card, "It's no joke Basil. Celestia has given you full citizenship for Equestria."
Basil took the card and gave it a look over to see it was a basic id card with his name and home set for a place called Ponyville. He looked at the name of the home and wondered, "Do all towns in this world have weird names or is it just me?"
At first he couldn't be happier that he was no longer wanted or anything but inside he was crying for joy. It was until he received the card that what he was feeling inside was now coming to the surface.
A single tear drop hit the card and the girls looked at Basil to see tears rolling down his face. But that wasn't all; his glasses that remained on his face the whole time cracked and the thing he used to keep his hair in a ponytail snapped and his hair was free. It was if they held out only because Basil was on the run.
"What wrong sugarcube?" Applejack asked going to his side. He tried to wipe the tears away but they wouldn't stop flowing.
"It's just your princess; she isn't fair for doing something like this for me."
Twilight came to his other side and started patting him on the back, "What do you mean? Aren't you happy that you won't be chased by anypony anymore?"
"Of course I'm happy! It's just; I was so prepared to do anything within my power to get home. Even if it meant going against Equestria… but now with this card." Basil held up the card to prove he's now a citizen of Equestria, "I can take my sweet time figuring out a way to get home without the stress of watching my back."
The girls all gave him a group hug as he cried his tears of joy.
After all that was over with, Basil took off his glasses and sighed that they finally broke on him but without them he was blind, until he looked at the girls.
"Hey! I can see pretty well without my glasses on. That's a first." He looked around as if he's seeing things for the first time.
Rarity took his glasses giving them a look over, "If you want darling, I can have these fixed tomorrow." Basil smiled in gratitude and nodded.
"If you don't mind one bit, thank you."
Twilight stood in front of Basil and poked his chest, "One more thing before me and the girls leave, where are the Elements of Harmony?"
The question itself made him stood completely still while he eyed another door in the door. Pinkie saw the door and started walking towards it asking, "Are they in here?"
Basil tried to run ahead of her with his powers but he just ended hitting his face on the floor after slipping. He used his unnatural strength and leapt over the girls and landed right in front of Pinkie and slammed his back against the door.
"There is nothing in this room that says your Elements or whatever are in here." Basil said looking nervous.
Pinkie didn't looked convinced and her friends were starting to gather around them, "But you looked at this door like it holds some secret you don't want out."
She basically hit the nail on the mark, the room Basil was trying to guard did have the elements but also something else that he didn't want out. Seeing that he was outnumbered, he concentrated his body to become see through and he phased through the door and locked it.
Pinkie started banging on the door wanting to know what he was hiding. Soon Rainbow Dash and Applejack joined her and banging on the door but stopped when they started hearing loud noises on the other side.
It sounded like a whole crew of ponies was destroying the room and rebuilding it just to destroy it again. The sounds stopped and the door opened to see a nervous and sweating Basil holding the jewel box with the elements.
"See here they are! And nothing oddly weird was in this room."
Pinkie and the others walked in the room to only see a blank and bare room like it there was nothing in it in the first place. The girl's know that he was hiding something but from the look on his face; it wasn't serious, just embarrassing.
Twilight accepted the box and raised her hand for handshake as her friends decided to wait outside. But not without Rainbow Dash flying over to him and giving a quick hug and a smirk that still scared Basil.
Turning back to Twilight, he smiled and shook her hand, "Thanks for all you've done for me Twilight. I would probably be still try hiding and fighting if I didn't have this card now."
"No problem at all Basil, but I was wondering if you don't have anything planned tomorrow. Then I would love to show you around Ponyville and for you to meet everypony in town." Twilight asked looking away slightly.
If Basil was back home, he would say Twilight was trying to ask him out but thought that wasn't likely, "Sure, why not? I guess while I'm here, I may as well get to know some people while in my quest to find my way home."
She looked happy to say the least and went to walk out of his home but stopped. He was about to ask what was the matter but Twilight quickly walked back towards him and gave him a kiss on the cheek before scurrying away.
Basil stood there and staring at the door for a while even after he was alone. The only light in the room was the light from the fire place now that the door was closed. He quickly realized that Twilight still had his bracelet so he grabbed his forgotten sword and flowed magic through it. The lights came on in the form of shining crystals on the ceiling and walls.
It was then he started talking to someone in various positions in the room, "I can't believe that I don't have to run anymore. While that is good and all, my real problem starts now." He said sitting on the ground.
"How am I going to find the same bright light that brought me here is the first problem." Basil said laying on the ground but a different spot.
He was now in the corner hugging his knees close to him as he continued, "Plus what was up with Rainbow Dash kissing me out of nowhere? I don't even know her that well and she still kisses me?"
Basil was now sitting at a poorly made stone table, "I wonder why this table didn't turn out so well? Huh, never mind that. Anyway, there's no way the girls hold feeling for me already right?"
Now he was in the corner hugging his knees again but he seemed depressed and facing the corner, "I hate not understanding things and this feeling I'm feeling is starting to bother me. I mean the only thing I can do is ignore their feelings and hopefully they'll understand. I mean, I'm not even from this world."
Basil was now standing in front of the fire place looking at the fire, "I've never had much of attention from girls in my world so why is it so different now?"
"So what you're saying is that I'm not wrong and I'm just experiencing new things which confuses me to over think things?" Basil said pacing back and forth in front of his chair.
He then turned to the chair smiling, "Thanks for listening man. I couldn't have figured this out without you."
A Basil clone was sitting on the chair taking notes but stopped and smiled, "Any time." He then poofed away leaving Basil to his own thoughts.
But as he sat down, a thought came to his mind, "Yep, I've gone mad. I've literally started talking to myself!"
He laid there not even thinking of the possibilities he'll have once he visits Ponyville. He may be ready for the new world, but are they?
