I woke up the next day, and found a sleeping Rainbow across my chest. I looked at her beautiful, sleeping face, and her comfortable smile. I lifted my arm and put it around her, but she didn't stir. I sighed and looked around me. I looked at the clock, and it said 6:13. I went back to sleep, Rainbow still on top of me. I woke up again to find her beginning to stir. I looked at her and she opened her eyes, her lovely magenta eyes. She looked at me and smiled.

"Goodmorning." She said, still smiling.

"Goodmorning to you to." I said back, smiling the same. She reached up and kissed me passionately, and I returned it. Our moment was broken by Spike walking in.

"I heard you guys talking an-" He started, then noticed what we were doing. Me and Rainbow stopped kissing and looked at him sternly. He grew a blush on his face and left us to our peace.

Spike's POV.

"Well that was unexpected, Rainbow had finally found her coltfriend." Spike said mentally, his blush fading as he walked towards the kitchen, to where Twilight and Marelyn were making Rainbow and Thunder breakfast.

"I just found something out about Rainbow." Spike said. Marelyn and Twilight turned to him in curiosity.

"What you learn, Spike?" Marelyn said, flipping a pancake. Both Marelyn and Twilight were wearing aprons.

I gulped about the thought about telling them, But decided it couldn't hurt any of us. "Rainbow has a coltfriend." I said, breathing in heavily.

"Really? Who?" Twilight said, obviously expecting an answer.

"Thunder." I said, slightly ashamed. The two looked at me in surprise.

"And just how do you know this?" Marelyn said, raising an eyebrow.

"Well I… sort of… walked in on them….. Kissing each other." I said sheepishly.

Jack's POV.

Me and Rainbow had climbed out of bed and taken turns showering. She showered first and I showered second. After we had finished, we ventured out of our room and into the kitchen. When we got there, Marelyn and Twilight looked at us, their mouths hanging open.

"What?" I asked. They just stood there, gawking at us.

"Rainbow, can we speak to you in private?" Marelyn said, shutting her mouth and speaking.

"Sure." Rainbow said happily. They walked out of the room and I turned to Spike.

"You told them about me and Rainbow, didn't you?" I asked, not even turning to the purple dragon.

"Umm….yes." He said shamefully.

"Thought so." I said blankly. I could make out some of the words the girls were saying through the door.

"You…him…..Gala…." were some of the words I heard Twilight say.

"Can you hear what their saying?" Spike asked me.

"Something about a Gala. Don't know what that could be though." I said, and Spike's jaw dropped.

"Their talking about the Grand Galloping Gala." Spike said. "And no doubt talking about Rainbow taking you." I looked at him surprised.

"Well Spike, I'm starving." I said, changing the subject. "Whats for breakfast?"

"Well, Marelyn and Twilight were making you two some pancakes, but then you woke up and I… Disturbed you." He said, and with that, Twilight, Rainbow, and Marelyn came into the room.

"Hello you guys, we were just talking about you and Breakfast." I said cheerily. Rainbows stomach growled and we all laughed. We ate pancakes and Me and Rainbow went off to Marelyn's map room (Which she had just built, it was under the library through a hatch.) and looked at her various maps. There was one of all of Equestria, one of the EverFree, one of Middle Earth( WHAT! Its not a map room without middle earth!), one of Ponyville itself, one of Canterlot, one of the Canterlot Crystal Mines, one of The Crystal Cavern… Anyway, there were a LOT of maps.

"You like it?" Marelyn said from behind. Me and Rainbow jumped up and hit our heads on the ceiling. "Opps, sorry." She said sheepishly.

"Yeah, its great." I said, rubbing my head." I was wondering if you had that map of Minecraftia I age you two years ago."

"Oh, that old thing? It should be around here somewhere." She said, digging into the pile of maps in the corner. "Hmmm… Here it is!"

She handed me the map with her magic. "What do you even want it for, Thunder?" Rainbow asked, looking at me clenching the map in my mouth.

"HmmMmmmHmHm!" I said, the map still in my mouth. Rainbow and Marelyn got tears to their eyes and burst out laughing, rolling around on the floor. I spit the map out onto a nearby table and unfolded it. In it showed a highly detailed map of all of Minecraftia. There was The Corruption, the Titan Fields, the National Spleef Arena, Mt. Hermonias, Hurion and the other towns, The Toruigades (Which is a swampy area that stretches on for miles), and other places. What I was more interested in was the Strongholds. I counted all three of them, but realized that the one I had traveled in was not located.

"Thats what I wanted to know." I said, still looking over the map. "Now I need one of Equestria."

She tossed me another map and I stretched it out next to the Minecraftia map. I gasped as I noticed how similar they were. Ponyville was where Hurion was, Canterlot was were Smaugstown was, The Crystal Cavern was where Angel's cave was, Mt. Harmony was where Mt. Hermonias was, The Titan fields were where the gem fields were. I beckoned Marelyn over to me and when she saw the maps, she also gasped.

"Thats… almost Impossible! How could Minecraftia and Equestria be almost exactly alike!" She whispered to me.

"I don't know, but look." I said as I pointed at Hurion on the Minecraftia map, then pointed to Ponyville. I then pointed to Canterlot, and then pointed to Smaugstown. I then pointed out that the Train line was exactly the same in each world. She gasped again as I took out my personal map of minecraftia, which had my writing all over it (I scribbled notes on my adventures.) And I then took out the map of Ponyville. I flipped over the Minecraftia map to reveal a map of Hurion. I pointed to Steve's tomb… and then pointed to Ponyville, where a tomb should have been, but was instead greeted by The Ponyville library.

"Steve's tomb is the library." I said, not a ting of excitement in my voice.

"But if Steve was buried there… Oh God, what was buried here?" She said in a frightened voice.

"I know how we can find out, but it'll risk releasing the heaviest secret I know. And breaking a promise." I said, a tear dripping from my eyes and landing on my map. I remembered exactly what that promise was.

I stood next to the hospital bed, Looking at the man lying in it. He turned to me and smiled.

"Jack, come here." he said in a husky voice. I did as he asked. "I need to tell you a secret that only me and your father knew, and only YOU can know now."

My eyes widened at the thought of knowing this secret. "W-What is it?" I asked in a shaky voice. He beckoned me closer, and I did.

"Here it is; Mine and your Father's tombs will be right beside each other, There will be a passage underneath the two and when you need to access it, you will use this key to open it. Put your left hand on the knob off of the door, place the key into the hole in the middle, and turn the knob on top of the door along with the one on your left. You will then find me and your father's most prized possession. Note this will only work once, so use this wisely. Also, if you for some reason need to find out what was buried in the tomb, just open the door, we'll be right there to tell you." He said, starting to gasp for breath.

"Take Care, my student. You will become great within time….Time….Time…" He said, the breath leaving his body for the last time. Tears came to my eyes and I sat there for a few minutes, looking at the man who I had once called friend and part of my family, gone forever. I stood up to leave when one last line came from his lips. "I travel now to Herobrine." And I knew he was gone for good. I left the hospital and walked straight home to Marelyn and Mom. I was stopped once by the royal guard, telling me the Princess would like to see me in a few hours.

I snapped back to reality again and Rainbow and Marelyn were looking at me with worry. Rainbow noticed I was back to myself and she hugged me again, just like last time.

"I-I can't do it." I said huskily.

"Can't do what?" Marelyn asked, curiosity growing in her eyes.

"I can't break my promise to Steve."

"And what promise is that?" Rainbow asked.

"A Promise to Steve. The last thing he ever wished to be." I said, a tear rolling down my cheek. Rainbow saw this and brushed it away. I looked up at her, staring straight into her eyes. I had a way of unnerving people when I did this, but it didn't unnerve Rainbow. She pulled me in close and we kissed passionately. Marelyn saw this and just looked at me. She never thought her brother would ever find love at his age, but love works in strange ways. We broke the kiss and walked upstairs. Me and Rainbow said our goodbyes and left for Cloudsdale. We returned to our house and fell asleep after a drink of a brew I had only made in Minecraftia. I put my arm around Rainbow and she looked up at me.

"We're going to the Grand Galloping Gala next week." She said sleepily, but happily.

"I know that Rainbow. I know." I said as I kissed her cheek. She giggled and snuggled up to me.

"Goodnight." She said.

"Goodnight." I said back.

But this wasn't goodnight, this was the start of a night of truth
