Author's Note: Finally getting back on track.
...
Liam and Twilight were in one of the many lounges that the castle had, preparing for the Princesses' visit. Liam used his magic to drape a large red tablecloth over a dining table in the center of the room, while Twilight levitated chairs and plates of snacks over to the table.
"You're doing good Liam, it looks good." Twilight complemented after the set up was completed. Liam sighed and took a few deep breaths that Twilight noticed. "Are you okay Liam? You seem stressed." Twilight asked, concerned. Liam looked over, "Oh, I'm, maybe a little worried, I mean, I'm only meeting the 2 oldest princesses in Equestria, why would I be freaking out?" Liam said nervously with a hint of sarcasm.
"I already told you, don't worry, just relax. The princesses are very casual and they are very excited to meet you." Twilight said reassuringly. Liam took another deep breath, "Okay, I believe you, when are they gonna get here?" Liam asked. Twilight looked at a clock on the wall. "Any minute now." she said.
As if on que, the door to the room opened and in stepped the 2 princesses. Twilight immediately bowed and Liam mirrored her movements and bowed as the princesses approached. Celestia let out a chuckle, "I see you've trained him well Twilight." she said. Liam stood up straight and looked at the two in front of him.
They were MUCH taller than him, they also had weird flowing manes that looked like a breeze was constantly blowing them. One was white with a colorful mane, Liam knew she was Celesita, and the other was dark blue and a little shorter, Liam knew she was Luna. "You must be the one called Liam." Luna said. Liam simply nodded.
"Well, it is nice to finally meet you." Celestia said happily. Then the four took seats at the table. "So Twilight, how has magic lessons been going?" Celestia asked. Twilight simply nudged Liam and he used his magic to levitate a biscuit from a plate and brought it to his mouth for a bite. "Pretty good." Liam said. Celestia nodded, "I had hoped." she said.
"Princess, I have a question." Twilight spoke, "Ask away Twilight." Celestia said. "When you approved me to train Liam, you said you've seen things like this before, what did you mean by that?" Twilight asked, this mad Liam perk up and listen intently.
"Something that I only found out recently, is that Human's come to our world sparatically." Celestia said. Liam nearly spit out his food, "What do you mean?" he asked. "As long as I have reigned, there have been Human's coming to Equestria, sometimes I'd get villages that say that they found a weird pony rambling about being in this weird dimension. It only happens every 200 years or so though, and the Human's who end up here end up disappearing usually." Celestia explained.
Liam took all this in, every 200 years? So the last Human brought here was from the early 1800s? "What do you mean disappear?" Liam asked. "They usually go mad, or wander to far away, hoping to get back to earth, or they simply die, one way or another." Luna explained sadly. "So, why are you helping us?" Liam asked. Celestia smiled, "This is the first time a Human has come through and I've been informed so quickly." Celestia explained, "I decided to try and help you get back, since I had failed to help the others." Celestia said, looking a little sad.
"Wait, weren't there 2 of them sister?" Luna asked. Liam then realized that Arron wasn't here, he was probably still in bed. "That lazy sunofa...my brother is probably sill asleep, I'll go get him." Liam started to get up, but was stopped by Celestia. "Leave him be, he can meet us another time." Celestia suggested. Liam thought for a moment and shook his head.
"I'm sorry your majesties, but I cannot except my brother's rudeness. Back home, if we had guests, we would have to come and converse with them, rather than stay in our rooms, so I'm going to get him." Liam explained before turning and running out of the room.
"Well, you can't say he's bad." Luna said.
...
Liam ran upstairs and approached Arron's bedroom door and started banging on it. "Arron, get your ass up!" Liam shouted. Liam heard Arron groan, "What is it Liam?" he asked. "The princesses are here, and you're being rude, so get out of bed and come downstairs!" Liam shouted. Liam then heard a loud gasp, followed by the sound of Arron falling off the bed and rushing around the room.
The door suddenly opened to Arron with a brush still in his hair, "I'm up! Don't Worry!" Arron said with a scared look on his face. Liam nodded, "Ok, then let's go." Arron pushed past Liam and went downstairs in a rush.
...
Arron and Liam were approaching the lounge where the princesses were when Twilight suddenly emerged with Spike and Rarity, who looked very muddy. "What's going on Twilight?" Liam asked, he then noticed Spike glowing. "It's kinda a long story, but to cut to the chase, me and Rarity are taking Spike to the dragon lands, I need you and Arron to keep the princesses company until we get back." Twilight explained.
The brothers took a minute to process the overload of information they just received. "I have several questions." Arron said. "Sorry, not time, just go talk to the Princesses, they've been eager to meet you Arron." Twilight said before she turned to Rarity and Spike and followed them out of the castle.
Liam and Arron exchanged glances of uncertainty before walking back into the lounge.
...
The brothers went back in and Arron introduced himself to the princesses, somehow without fainting at how badly he was freaking out. They all sat back down at the table and shared their interests, such as Arron's athletic skills, or Liam's musical skills.
"You know Liam, there's a music festival being held in the city of Trottingham in a few months, maybe you could perform at it." Celestia suggested after Liam brought up his musical talent. "Hmmm, that does sound fun, I'll look into it." Liam said.
"Are there any sports events near Ponyville? I haven't seen a game in a while, and I could use some excitment." Arron asked. "The Wonderbolts will be coming for a show in Ponyville in a few weeks." Celestia said. "Oh, I think Rainbow Dash mentioned that to me actually, sounds like fun." Arron said.
The four continued for a little while longer, until Celestia noticed the time. "It looks like time is almost up for this lunch." Celestia said sadly. "Yes, unfortunate that Twilight had to miss it." Luna said. "Yes, well, it was a pleasure to meet you boys. I think you are both very unique." Celestia said to the brothers.
"Thank you your majesties." Liam said with a bow that Arron copied. "But before we go, we were wondering if you could play us something Liam." Celestia said. Liam tensed up, he was being asked to play before a ruler! Liam nodded, "Uh sure, just one second." Liam said before teleporting away, then teleporting back with his guitar.
"Pick a song that isn't the most generic this time." Arron said teasingly. The princesses chuckled as Liam rolled his eyes.
"Okay, this is a song back from Earth called "I Feel Fine"."
Liam then began to play...
...
Baby's good to me, you know
she's happy as can be, you know
she said so
I'm in love with her, and I feel fine.
Baby says she's mine, you know
she tells me all the time, you know
she said so
I'm in love with her, and I feel fine.
I'm so glad, that she's my little girl,
she's so glad, she's tellin all the world,
that her baby buys her things, you know
he buys her diamond rings, you know
she said so,
She's in love with me, and I feel fine.

Liam completed the song and took a bow, the princesses clapping their hooves together. "That was very lovely Liam." Luna said, "You are very talented." Celestia added.
"Thank you your majesties, I don't know what to say." Liam said, very happy that they liked it.
"Well, thank you again Liam, and tell Twilight that we enjoyed the lunch." Celestia said as she and Luna exited the room. Liam and Arron waved as they left.
"See, I told you it wasn't gonna be so bad." Liam said as he started to clean up the room. Arron stood up from his chair and stretched, "Yeah, you're right, and I'm sorry I slept in." Arron said as he also started to help with cleanup.
The brothers managed to clean up the castle before Twilight and Spike got back to the castle late that night. Twilight and Spike walked into the library designated as "the training library" where Liam was practicing his levitation skills. He looked over and saw that they looked a bit dirty. "Wow, you two looked like you walked through a warzone. What happened?" Liam asked.
"Oh, just went and competed to become dragon lord, then became dragon lord for a minute before giving up the position to our new friend Ember." Spike said rather nonchalantly. "Wow, so, your friends with the dragon lord now?" Liam asked. Twilight nodded, "I assume everything went great between you, Arron and the princesses?" she asked. "yep, everything went great. Now tell me, what happened again, with the glow and the dragon land thing?" Liam asked, genuinely curious.
So, Twilight and Spike told Liam what had happened between the former dragon lord Torch, and the "Gauntlet of Fire" and how Torch's daughter Ember became friends with Spike, and how she became the new dragon lord with hopes of learning more about friendship. "Sounds like a lot, so I assume you guys are tired." Liam said, looking at the exhaustion in their faces. They both nodded and went off to bed. Liam was not far behind.

Author's Note: WTF is This!? I know, this is a bit of a sh*t show. I had to re-write this chapter 3 times until I felt comfortable with it, but this is what I got, so take it or leave it, and I promise I will do better next time, thank you. :)
