Chapter 9
Six Months Later
Back at Dark Stars cave, the day had finally come, Dark Star was finally able to leave the putrid pools with a clean bill of health. As he rose out of the pools, he smiled at his newely healed body and the new strength he aquired in his time in the pools.
"Now then, this is what I'm talking about, perhaps now i can keep up with Heavy Weight, but it is still not enough."Dark said to himself.
Suddenly the door to the putrid pools secret door opened and with it his evil gryphon servant came through as well as a pegasus and a changeling who were now also corrupted by the evil of the putrid pools, they were both black with demon red eyes and bat like wings, they bowed in respect to their master before rising and evily chuckling."It is good to see you finally out of the pools master, and you have grown much stronger than last time, maybe you stand a chance against Heavy this time around."the gryphon complimented.
"Yes, it feels great too, but I'm still not sure about Heavy, as I grow stronger, he tends to get stronger as well, but do not threat, I have a plan that may get me all the power I need to take over Equestria, destroy Celestia and her family and even destroy the mighty Heavy Weight."Dark said with a devious grin.
"And would that be sir?" asked the Pegasus.
"Do not worry about, for now I just need the three of you to go to Ponyville and cause a little destruction and chaos, it will serve as a way to distract Heavy from me, while i search for it."Dark explained to his followers.
"Search for what exactly sir?"the changling asked.
"You will see...In time, now go my minions, terrorize Ponyville and make them fear the name Dark Star!"Dark ordered.
The gryphon then turned to the newer minions in disgust."Well, what are you fools waiting for? lets go!" he yelled as he left the cave with the pegasus and changling right on his tail.
Dark smiled as his servants left the cave."Just wait Heavy, when I find my little treasure, I will have so much power that no pony will stop me...not even you." he said to himself as he to had left the cave, but went in a different direction.
Ponnyville, the Library
Celestia's sun began to rise over the town of Ponyville once again and with it activity was already starting for someponies, but within the library there were two ponies who didn't even get up yet. In the library bedroom, Twilight Sparkle and her colt friend Heavy Weight were both sleeping soundly in bed a beam of sunshine shown in both of their eyes, making them stirr from their slumber, as they awoke with yawns all around, they both happily stared at each other.
"Good morning." Twilight said quietly.
"Good morning."Heavy replied.
"You look like you slept well, or do your eyes always shine when you wake up."Twilight said in a flirting voice.
"Funny, I was just going to say the same thing about you, but you always looked this good in the sunshine."Heavy flirted back.
Twilight giggled as she then moved over to Heavy and got on top of him and began to passionately making out with him slowly and happily. As they kissed, Heavy suddenly took control and slowly rolled Twilight over on her back and got on top of her, he then began kissing her again, he went from her lips and started moving to other areas, he then kissed her a few times on the cheek and finally started to kiss her a few times on the neck. Twilight began to giggle as Heavy kissed her neck, giving away the fact that she was tickilish there.
"Heavy, come on, stop."Twilight teased through her giggles. Finally Heavy stopped with her neck and went back to making out with her, but then their fun ended as they heard foot steps coming up the stairs, Heavy got off Twilight and blushed as Spike made it up the stairs with a letter in his hand.
"Twilight, Heavy! you will not believe who is coming to visit us today!"Spike exclaimed.
"Really? who is it Spike?"Twilight asked.
"Its your parents!"Spike happily exclaimed.
Both Twilight and Heavy looked to each other with mixed feelings and finally turned back to Spike."Why are they visiting?"Heavy asked.
"They heard of Twilight having a new colt friend and it says right here that they are dying to meet him."Spike said gesturing slyly to Heavy.
"I already met her parents."Heavy objected.
"Yeah, maybe when we were young, but never as my colt friend, don't worry I'm sure they'll like you."Twilight reassured.
"I hope so."Heavy said quietly.
"It even says that Shining Armor is coming down too, its going to be a small family reunion!"Spike said with excitement as he then ran down stairs.
Twilight and Heavy finally got out of bed and went slowly down stairs, only to be greeted with the smell of pancakes and eggs cooking, as they came down stairs they then entered the kitchen to see Spike happily cooking breakfast."You need any help there kid."Heavy asked.
"Nah, i got it."Spike replied as he finish the first pancake."If you wanna help, could you try out this pancake? see if its good or not?"he finished as he handed Heavy a began to eat and hs face lit up by the pancake.
"Its delicious Spike, keep up the good work."Heavy complimented.
"No problem."Spike said with a salute.
Heavy then left the kitchen only to see Twilight on the couch reading a book, he then decided to show more affection by sneaking up on her and sneaking a kiss to her cheek. At first she was a bit spooked, but then she just laughed at his percistence with her."Oh Heavy, at first you tried everything you could to stay away from me, now you just don't want to stay away."Twilight joked as she kissed him back."I have an idea, why don't you greet Shining Armor at the station and just hang out with him awhile and later on I'll get my parents and we'll all go to the library and have a little sit down, just the five of us."Twilight suggested sensing Heavy's nervousty.
"That sounds like a plan."Heavy replied.
He then went to the door and left leaving Twilight to enjoy breakfast with Spike. As he went outside, he took a deep inhale, taking in the fresh air of Ponyville, he then began to venture to the train station while once again taking in the sights. Suddenly he bumped in to some pony that he did not expect to see, it was none other then Rarity and the girls, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.
"Oh my, my sincere apologie Heavy, I wasn't looking where i was going, I was a bit distracted with these three."Rarity said gesturing to the girls that were running around and playing.
"I'll say, you look like you got your hooves full."Heavy replied.
"I don't mean to be a bother, but where are you going on such a fine day?"Rarity asked while the girls lined up to admire Heavy once again.
"I'm just on my way to the train station to greet Shining Armor, later on Twilight's parents are going to be visiting and the letter we got this morning said that they wanted to meet me."Heavy explain.
"My, my, it sounds like your going to have quite the little party with the parents."Rarity inquired.
"Yeah, it will definitely be an interesting encounter after all this time."Heavy said solemnly.
"What do you mean, an interesting encounter?"Rarity asked curously.
"I just haven't seen her parents since i was a kid, and lets just say when i left i'm sure they were pretty mad a me after the fight me and Twilight had."Heavy replied.
"Oh yeah, i forgot about that, but don't worry darling, as long as you love Twilight, I'm sure that is all that matters, right?"Rarity questioned.
"Yeah...yeah your right, its Twilight that matters to me, and she's the one i want to be with, and no matter what, I will always protect her, even if her parents don't like me."Heavy stated in realization.
"Awwwww."the girls said in responce to Heavy's statement to Twilight.
"Thank you for the pep talk Rarity."Heavy thanked.
"Any time darling, that what friends do."Rarity replied."Well we must be going, come along girls."Rarity said to the girls.
As Rarity left with the girls behind her, Heavy smiled feeling a lot better and more prepared for what ever the rest of this day held for him. Suddenly he turn towards the train station to see the crystal train was about to turn into the station, with that Heavy ran to the station as fast as he could. Upon entering the station he made right in time to see two guards emerge and stand at attention, one of them just so happened to be Flash sentry, who took notice of Heavy and glared at him for ruining his chance with Twilight and beating him to a paid no attention to Flash as he then saw Shining Armor emerge from the train, Heavy smiled as he then bowed in respect to the crystal prince, Shining just laughed at this.
"You don't need to bow to me Heavy, we are friends, nothing more, if anything I should be bowing to you since your an alicorn and such."Shining joked.
"Yeah well, I'd rather not be bowed to, I'm not into that royalty stuff."Heavy replied.
Both stallions hoof bumped and were on their way out of the train station, as they walk they chose to talk some more about their day."So Heavy? hows it been going between you and Twilight?"Shining asked.
"Its been great so far, everything is peaceful around here, we have plenty of time for each other, we carry on a bit."Heavy said trying to mess with Shining a bit.
"Whoa there! I don't need details of what you two do in your spare time."Shining said quickly.
Heavy just laughed at Shinings scare, causing Shining to laugh as well,as they stopped laughing, Heavy then spoke."And what about Cadence? how are you two doing?"Heavy asked.
"Its great really, I even think that we may try to have a kid one day."Shining replied looking at the clear sky with hope.
"A baby huh? I never thought about it, but i think one of these days...I'd want a baby too."Heavy said with a bit of hope in his voice.
"You would make one hay of a dad."Shining replied.
"So would you."Heavy replied back.
The stallions enjoyed the rest of their walk around Ponyville and taking in all the sights, not knowing that their were three dark figures watching them with wicked smiles.
A few hours later, Twilight had left the Library and was now on her way to meet with her parents, all she had in the back of her mind, was that this was going to be quite the interesting visit. As she made it to the train station, she took a deep breathe and put on a smile to greet her parents. Finally the train to Canterlot arrived and with it Twilight shook anxiously as the doors then opened, and with it Twilight Velvet and Night Life exited the train. Twilight smiled and raced to her parents to hug them.
"Mom, dad, its great to see you after so long."Twilight said as she hugged her parents.
"Twilight sweetie, its great to see you too honey."Twilight Velvet replied.
"How's my baby filly doing?"Night Life said happily.
Finally Twilight broke from the group hug."Dad, come on, I not a baby filly any more you know that."Twilight said in a friendly tone.
"I know, and i heard that you even have a colt friend now."Night inquired.
"Yes and we're very excited to meet him, where is he?"Twilight Velvet asked.
"He's out on the town with Shining Armor right now, but he should be back soon, why don't you two come back to my home and we can wait for them there?"Twilight suggested.
"I suppose we could do that."Night Life replied.
Twilight and her parents then left the train station peacefully and departed for the library, but they were unaware of the dark figures that were also watching them. Upon entering the Library, they all sat down and Twilight pulled out some tea for them to enjoy while they waited for the guys to get back from their trip.
"So tell me sweet heart, how long have you and this stallion been going out?"Velvet asked.
"About six months."Twilight replied.
"And how has he been treating you?"Night Life said with a bit of seriousness in his voice.
"He treats me just fine dad, he is actually very affectionate and nice."Twilight replied.
"Okay I'm just going ask it, do you think maybe you will have kids in the future?"Velvet asked excitedly.
"MOM!"Twilight exclaimed in embarrasment.
"Now Velvet, lets not get to carried away here, we don't even know if it's that serious yet."Night Life said.
Twilight was a bit taken back by her father's doubt, but regained a cool head."Well its we haven't talked about it that much, but honestly...I think Heavy would make a great dad."Twilight said.
"Heavy? Is that his name?"Night asked.
"Yeah dad, you and mom actually met him before, only he was a colt at the time though."Twilight pointed out.
"Come to think of it that name does sound familiar."Velvet said quietly.
Suddenly, Heavy and Shining Armor entered the house still chuckling about their day, upon their entering, the parents rose from their seat and hugged Shining.
"Oh Shining, its so nice to see you again son."Velvet said.
"Hey, mom."Shining greeted, now a little embarrassed.
It was then that Twilight Velvet and Night Life turned their attention to Heavy as they tried to recognize him, suddenly Twilight ran and came to Heavy's side.
"Mom, dad, you two know Heavy Weight right? he was my sibling student when we were young, remember?"Twilight asked.
"Hello."Heavy said.
Suddenly upon hearing his name, and recognizing his face, it hit Night Life and his eyes widened with fear."Y-You, your that kid we met that day Shining became the new captain of the royal guard."Night life said in a shaky voice.
"Yes sir, that was me."Heavy said with a raised eye brow.
"Weren't you also the one that ran away?"Night asked in a more serious tone.
"Now Night Life let's not get too personal here."Velvet said in a worried tone, sensing that there was going to be an issue.
"Yes, but I came back for her."Heavy Weight said in response to Nights question.
"Really? do you come back for any pony that you hurt?"Night rudely asked.
"DAD!"Shining and Twilight yelled in response.
"Night Life! you know better then to say things like that."Velvet said in a scolding manner.
"Nope, just Twilight sir."Heavy bravely said.
"Is that so?"Night asked in a threatening tone.
"Dad, you and me have to talk."Twilight said as she then pulled her father from the crowd and took him upstairs for a chat.
"I can't believe he actually just tried to start something with you."Shining said to Heavy.
"I know, don't worry though, Its not the first time i have been disapproved of."Heavy reassured.
"Still though, I am terribly sorry about Night Life, Its just after you ran away and left Twilight like you did, he blamed himself for letting Twilight get near any pony that looked dangerous to him, and well...the memory of you beating Shining and Twilight still haunted him to this day."Velvet explained as they all looked up stairs imagining what Twilight was saying to Night.
Up in Twilight's room, Twilight was chewing her dads ears off for trying to start something with Heavy."What the hay was that all about? I mean what were you trying to accomplish from this dad?"Twilight furiously asked.
"I don't know, why didn't you tell me that the stallion you were dating just so happen to be the one who beat you and your brother senseless and ran away?"Night retorted.
"Dad he's different now, he's not that kid any more, he is a mature stallion and i love him...and he loves me too."Twilight replied.
"How can you say you love him, he's a monster for Celestia's sake."Night Life said.
Twilight gritted her teeth at the mention of the word monster."Dad, don't you dare call him that, he is not a monster, he is a good stallion who just had a bad life and that's it."Twilight said in a mild threatening voice.
"Twilight I am only saying this because i love you and you are my daughter...I don't approve of this stallion, he is nothing but trouble and a danger in your life, I don't want you hanging out with him any more."Night Life said sternly.
Twilight had finally lost it and threw a chair at her dad, but missed him by inches."You can't tell me what to do! I am now a grown mare and i love Heavy with all my heart and if you don't like what we have together, then you can just...BUCK OFF AND STAY OUT OF OUR LIVES!"Twilight shouted.
Night just stood firm and began walking down stairs."Fine then, if you want to be with an abusive monster your whole life, that's fine."Night said as he descended down stairs to join the then ran after him as he was about to join the crowd, and to everypony's surprise, Twilight threw another chair at Night and the whole crowd was suddenly alerted by this and Heavy immediately ran to Twilight to calm her down.
"I said don't call him that!"Twilight yelled while Heavy restrained her.
"Velvet we're leaving."Night strictly said.
"Night Life what did you do this time."Velvet said angrily.
"If our daughter wants to be with a monster, then let her."Night said to every pony's surprise as he went outside.
"Dad, I can't believe your acting like this!"Shining yelled.
Heavy frowned and let Twilight go, he then teleported outside right in front of Night Life and stared him down."Now hold on just a moment! what is your deal here?!"Heavy said.
"You wanna know what my deal is? I don't approve of you being with my daughter, I can tell that you are nothing but bad news and i refuse to let a stallion who hurt my children any where near my daughter again, so if you know whats best for you...stay away from my daughter."Night Life warned.
Heavy just smirked."Sorry sir, but I am not leaving Twilight's side ever again, and if you don't like it, that's your problem, but I will never hurt her again, I love your daughter and I'm pretty sure that we are going to stay together no matter what, so sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not going any where."Heavy stated.
Before things could get worse between the two, screams then echo'd out and Heavy and Night turned only to see Rarity and the girls were being held hostage by three black creature were none other than the gryphon and the new followers of Dark Star and now they really mean business. While the changling held a knife to Rarity's neck, all three followers were also staring down Heavy and Night Life.
"who are these guys?"Night asked.
"From the looks of it, they must work for Dark Star."Heavy guessed.
"Dark Star?"Night questioned.
"I'll explain later, but for now you should get back, these three are mine."Heavy stated as he prepared for battle.
"Isn't that cute, Heavy Weights here to save the day, that's just precious."The gryphon spat.
"Indeed, he actually thinks he can best us."the Pegasus replied.
"Remember, we are to distract him, that is our mission."the gryphon said sternly.
"Enough talk, lets destroy this swine!"the changling finished.
Suddenly, Rarity and the girls were released and the trio of evil creatures charged at Heavy and Night Life. Quickly acting, Heavy shoves Night away and blasts a beam of magic at the enemies, they manage to dodge, but the gryphon was surprised when Heavy suddenly appeared right in his face. Heavy then bucked the gryphon hard in the gut and sent him flying into the Pegasus, the changling reacted to this and blasted green magic at Heavy. Heavy dodge and took flight, but was then pursued by the Pegasus and gryphon, he flew high in the air with the two right on his tail, Heavy waited till they could almost touch him, he then threw up a shield and the Gryphon and Pegasus slammed hard into it, giving Heavy a chance to make some distance from the two. Suddenly he saw the changling coming up from behind and he smirked as he then kicked the changling in the nose with his right hind leg. The Gryphon and Pegasus then suddenly charged at a face paste at Heavy, Heavy saw this and dropped like a stone towards the ground, the two enemies gradually followed him down while looking Heavy right in the eye. As they neared the ground, Heavy immediately stopped and he head butted both enemies in the head, making them fall unconscious to the ground. Heavy kept smirking at the two out cold enemies, but failed to notice the changling sneaking up on him, the changling then charged his horn and was about to hit Heavy, but he was then suddenly blasted right passed Heavy and joined the pile of his down allies.
"Get away from my colt friend."Said an all to familiar voice.
Twilight Sparkle suddenly appeared next to Heavy while Shining Armor, Velvet and Night Life checked up on Rarity and the girls. Twilight stared down the enemies as all three of the attackers got up and stared both Alicorns down.
"Who is this?"the gryphon asked.
"I believe it is Twilight Sparkle."answered the Pegasus.
"Then we will destroy her as well."the changeling finished as he then charged his horn and blasted a beam of magic at the two Alicorns. Before Heavy could do anything, Twilight charged in and instantly went into a comet charge and ran with great speed towards the enemy. As she made contact with the beam, she instantly overpowered the attack and made her way over to the three creatures, upon impact, an explosion rung out and a cloud of smoke and purple magic dust flew everywhere. When the smoke cleared, Twilight now stood on top of the three evil followers, but she wasn't done with them yet, Twilight then took flight and went high in the sky and began to charge her horn. As she was getting ready to fire, Heavy suddenly showed up and smiled at her before suddenly putting his horn to hers, suddenly she felt a surge of new found power coursing through her body as Heavy Weight felt the same thing happening to him. Together the two Alicorns unleashed a massive white beam of magic at their foes, as it descended, the changling and Pegasus thought fast and surprisingly put themselves in front of the gryphon to defend. As the massive beam hit, the entire town was engulfed in a large flash of White light.
"Incredible." said Shining, Velvet, Rarity, the girls and even Night Life.
As the light subsided, Twilight and Heavy were now slowly descending with each other, as they looked upon the grounds where they fought and saw that both the changling and the Pegasus were completely incinerated, they were nothing but dust now. But the Gryphon was still alive and significantly injured, as he got to his feet, he saw that he was alone and out match as Heavy and Twilight stared him down. The gryphon wisely cut his losses, and left without saying a word, giving Twilight and Heavy a chance to behold the power they both saw in each other.
"Wow Twilight, you really got good."Heavy complimented.
"Hey, were a team Heavy, and besides...I had more than one good teacher."she replied as they shared a kiss with one another.
Suddenly the crowd came up to behold the aftermath."My, that was marvelous, just simply stupendous, that was one of the most incredible and elegant displays of magic i have ever seen in my life!"Rarity exclaimed.
"I'll say, that was incredible."Shining complimented.
While the ponies all gathered around the couple, Night Life was looking deep into his thoughts and came to a decision."Heavy Weight."Night called out.
The crowd then dispersed while Heavy and Twilight looked back at Night."Yes Night."Heavy replied.
"Look, I still don't like this, but you do appear to make Twilight happy and that's what really matters to me, If you can take good care of her and protect her and treat her with respect...then i won't get in the way, and I'm sorry for my ignorance earlier."Night said with guilt in his voice.
"Don't worry about it, I'm just glad we both understand whats really important to us."Heavy said with a smile."I admit I was a messed up kid, but that's not me anymore, I promise no matter what, I will never hurt her again."Heavy promised.
"Good."Night said with a smile.
Suddenly Spike bursted out the library doors holding a giant stack of pancakes."Hello! is any pony gonna eat all these perfect pancakes, I don't want them to go bad!"Spike called out desperately.
Everypony laughed at Spike while the scent suddenly hit everyponies noses."Now how about we go insided and enjoy some nice breakfast, you know...end the visit on a good note."Heavy suggested.
"That sounds like a good idea Heavy."Twilight said while everypony else nodded in then went inside to enjoy a nice visit with some pancakes and enjoying another satisfied victory over the forces of evil.
LONG ONE HUH, DON'T WORRY THERE IS MORE TO COME
REVIEW AND SUCH.
