Today was going to be an interesting day. I woke up to go down and have some breakfast. I looked in the fridge and luckily, there was something good in there. So I just grabbed it and devoured it. Then, I headed up to the library because I had some boring old royal paperwork I needed to do. It's just part of being royalty. I hate doing this, but it must get done. I opened the doors and Twilight was there as well. Probably doing the same thing. Doing royal paperwork and answering fanmail. I sat down and began writing all the paperwork I had to do. For some odd reason, Twilight didn't notice me. I guess she's busy doing that stuff. Whatever. I need to get this done as well, so at least, she won't be completely alone in here. However, I noticed she was as bored as heck. Then, her quill broke. Luckily, Spike brought the quills over and Twilight picked out another one.
Suddenly, Spike burped out a letter scaring me half to death and made Twilight nervous. Spike said "Ah. Thank goodness. I thought I had too many deep fried gems." That's a thing? I guess so. I don't want to imagine what that tastes like. Twilight then read the letter and said "It's from my parents!" Say what now? "Spike, they won a zeppelin cruise and get to take the whole family! I have to tell Zach about this." That's nice. Wait. Does her family even know of my existence? I know her brother and his wife does, but I'm not sure about her parents. I said "I'm right here Twilight." That scared her and she said "Oh, I didn't know you were there." I said "It's kinda funny since I'm doing all this ridiculous crap of royal paperwork." Twilight then looked at the pile of papers and sighed in disappointment. She said "I wish I had time to go with them, but there's just too many princess duties I have to take care of." I said "I know how that feels. It would have been nice to actually meet the rest of your family. Oh well." I just shrugged and continued writing tax law. Don't ask me why.
Spike picked up the letter and said "Come on Twilight. Even Princess Celestia takes a break sometimes and she raises the sun." That's not really going to convince her Spike. Twilight just ignored him and then he decided to try a new tactic. He pushed Twilight towards the door, scaring her and said "You need a vacation. Both of you actually." That is true, but I've had my fun already. Now it's time to get some actual work done. Tax law isn't going to write itself. Again, do not ask me why I'm writing tax law. Celestia just asked me to write her tax law for the next couple of weeks because she has other things to take care of. "I can keep track of the friendship log, boost community morale, and answer fanmail for a few days." Twilight said "But Spike. You're as much a part of my family as anypony." That is true, but let him do your work for you. I need to continue writing my tax law. "I just can't leave you to do all that work." Spike said "What? I can't hear you. You're on vacation." I said "Don't worry Twilight. He'll be fine." and I continued on writing.
Twilight said "I guess I could use a little time off from being a princess. You're the best Spike." Spike said "I know." Twilight said excited "I'm going to go pack everything neatly into one suitcase!" I said "Figures you would do that. Go have fun." Twilight looked at me and said "You're coming too." Ha! Not in a million years. I have work I need to do. I said "Oh no, no, no, no. I have tax law I need to write. Don't ask why. I've done all my fun and now I need to get actual work done." I turned back to my work and then, Twilight picked me up with her magic. She said "Come on, Zach. Sure, maybe you've been running around doing stuff, but when's the last time you actually relaxed?" Uh, oh. That was quite a while ago. I said "It's been a while, but that's not the point. I need to get this tax law done. Celestia expects me to get this done within the next couple of weeks." Twilight said "Yeah, next couple of weeks. This is only a few days. Besides, we can actually have a good time together. What do you say?"
I was about to say no, but Twilight just stared at me with a look in her eyes that just begged please. Unfortunately for me, when she does that, those beautiful violet orbs I just can't resist. I said sighing "Okay, I guess. But let's not waste any more time than necessary." She said "Great. Now come on." I heard Spike say "Wait for it." Twilight then shouted from down the hall "Cruises have activities right?! I should probably make a schedule?" Spike said "There it is." He continued writing and before I could do anything else, Twilight's magic dragged me down the hall. Oh dear, was this going to be a long day. After all that boring packing, we took flight to Canterlot to get on this cruise. Ah, yes. I have so many memories of cruise ships back home. I even remember the very first time I went on one. It was AMAZING! Once we made it there, Twilight's family did the whole exchange of greetings and whatnot. After that crap, Twilight pretty much introduced me to her parents and said to the rest of her family that we were dating. Of course that caught a suspicious glance from Shining Armor. I figured that would happen.
Before he said anything, I said "Yes, yes. I know that if I hurt her, you'll kill me. Trust me. I've beaten you to it. I've got a scar mark to prove it." That caught Shining Armor completely off guard and he dropped the suspicious glance. All of us then headed towards the docks to board the ship and Twilight's mother said "Oh gee. I am really looking forward to a relaxing vacation." Sure, you are. Twilight's dad said "Watch out. She won't admit it, but your mother says relaxing vacation, she means doing something crazy. Last time, she ended up bungy jumping over Luna Bay." I said "Next thing you know, she'll basically skydive over the Celestial Ocean in Manehatten." Night Light nodded in agreement and Twilight Velvet said "What was that hon?" Oh dear. I hope she didn't hear that. Thankfully, Night Light came up with an excuse and said "Oh, I was just telling Twilight and Zachary over here about my new bingo strategy book. It's a real page turner." Nice one.
Shining Armor said excited "Oh, I can't wait to get on this Zeppelin and fly like a pegasus." I said, smirking "Oh, I can only imagine what that feels like." I have wings now, so I can fly like a pegasus no problem. Twilight said "Really? I remember you getting airsick on Admiral Fairweather's wild ride at Pony Island." I smirked at him and Cadence looked at him with a smile. I said "Twilight, you must tell me more about this. Sounds super interesting." Shining Armor said "Ah, please. I grew out of airsickness a long time ago." I said "We'll see about that. I bet you can't even go five minutes without hanging over the edge for dear life praying to the gods to save you from this "oh so terrible" illness." Cadence and Twilight giggled at this, while Shining Armor just huffed in annoyance. He'll get used to it. After that whole thing, the loudspeaker came on and it said "I hope you ponies feel welcomed aboard! BECAUSE YOU ARE!"
Wait. I recognize that voice. No. It's IRON WILL! He was the one that turned Fluttershy into a bully all the way back in Season 2. Twilight said "Well, that was an assertive welcome." It sure was, but that's what Iron Will does. We headed over to a different part of the ship and I noticed that we had prying eyes looking at us. Oh dear. I forgot about that. Not only are they probably looking at Twilight and Cadence, but also me as well. That's what sucks about royalty. But you learn to deal with it as time goes on. The ropes were untied and the ship took off. We then headed to where we would all be staying for the next couple of days and it looked quite nice in my opinion. They all got excited and stood in awe. I didn't say anything because I've seen luxury so many times that I'm used to it at this point. Night Light said "Guess this is what it's like to be big time prize winners." At least this wasn't trying to win the lottery. "I just wish I could remember what contest we won." I guess that happens sometimes.
Twilight got confused at this and asked her parents "Wait. You don't know where this prize came from?" I wouldn't say that, Twilight. They just don't remember where it came from. Just because they don't remember where it came from doesn't mean they are completely clueless. It's not like a blind buy or something. Twilight Velvet said "When somepony offers you a free vacation, you just sign the paperwork and don't ask questions." Okay, that seems suspicious. I've been down this road before and it turns out they don't tell you all the details when the paperwork is being signed. They tell you later on after it's been signed. I call it a scam, but it's part of how a business runs in the American economy. Night Light said "Especially when it means that we all get to fly off together." I guess. "What should we do first?" Of course he would ask that question. Twilight said "Well, I did categorize the ship's activities and make a schedule organized by each of our interests." I said "Figures you would do that. I know you all too well." Twilight just rolled her eyes and continued.
"Dad. You're easy." Is he? "Bingo competition right here." Night Light looked at it and said "Oh, I just love how the numbers and letters are organized in their little boxes and it's so satisfying." I said "That's your daughter for you." Once again, Twilight rolled her eyes and continued. She said "Shining Armor. They got a tiny boat race in a tiny pool here." That's oddly specific, but okay. Shining Armor said "Aww, sis. Only you would remember I love tiny things." Technically, I do as well, but they would get confused, so I won't say anything. Twilight said "And Cadence. There's a peewee princess playtime here that Flurry's gonna love." Man, they really did think of everything here. Wait. They aren't just trying to advertise princesses here right? Because that sounds awfully suspicious. Cadence said "Oh, wonderful." Twilight Velvet looked at the paper and said "Hmm. This barrel jumping at Neighagra Falls sounds interesting."
Of course it does. I said "Be careful about that. Ponies who don't have immortality may suffer paralysis." Ow! Twilight elbowed me to knock it off and I just rolled my eyes. Why am I even here? I could be writing tax law right now. Twilight said "Tax law is boring. There's absolutely no fun in it." You really had to do that? This caused the entire family to go on alarm as they were confused. Before they asked anything, I said "We can talk to each other mentally and can read each other's thoughts. Don't ask questions. Case closed." They all just stared in silence and Twilight just continued to make it less awkward. She said "I just want to see you all have a good time. And this works out perfectly because we have room for the one thing I want to do." Look at the Northern Star? Yeah, sounds about right.
She grabbed a book and showed it to her family. "Our ship passes the Frozen North at sunset, which is the only time you can see the astrological phenomenon known as the Northern Stars!" Yay. Sounds so exciting. Twilight shot me a glare and I just backed away. It's like the stars are shooting out of the setting sun!" I said jokingly, "Gee, I hope we don't find Sombra lying around anywhere." They all shot me daggers and I just sighed. I said "You ponies really need to lighten up. You are no fun. I'm going outside to see if I can find anything." I went inside my shadow form and left. This caught everypony except Twilight off guard. She said "He has overpowered magic. He does that a lot. He's not King Sombra so don't worry about it." They all nodded and continued. She looked at the schedule and said "Hmm. But we don't have anything to do right now. Any suggestions?" Go jump off this cruise ship and land in the Ghastly Gorge? "Be quiet you!" "What? It was a good suggestion. Seriously, Twilight. When are you going to take jokes?" "That's not a joke. Somepony could get hurt from that." "I don't know. Your mother might like that idea."
"That's not the point." "Fine, whatever. I'm done having this discussion." Ponies are just too literal these days. It makes me sick since it reminds me of how humans acted back home. It was ridiculous. You couldn't make a single joke without someone being offended. Whoever does that is an idiot and needs a reality check. If you are that person, screw you and go f yourself. Suddenly, the loudspeaker came on and that ridiculous minotaur said "Attention cruiseponies! Don't let this zeppelin be a bore. Leave your room and see the TOUR!" I said loudly, not present in the room "How about you just SHUT THE HECK UP and go jump off a cliff into the ghastly gorge you ridiculous and stupid minotaur? Good riddance." Shining Armor asked Twilight "What was that? It sounded like Zachary's voice, but I couldn't tell." Twilight sighed and said "He can hide inside walls and speak loudly without any of us seeing him. He truly is something alright." Yes, I am. I'll take that as a complement, Twilight.
They all came outside and of course Shining went to the front of the ship pretending he was flying. Wait for it. He said "I'm flying. I'm-" before turning completely green. I said "I told you that would happen. But you let your stubborn pride ignore it. It only took you about half an hour before this happened. Seems like you'll be pretty embarrassed now. Hehe!" Cadence smirked at her husband and said "I'm afraid Flurry may be airsick. Since I know that isn't a problem for you, would you mind taking her blow?" Shining Armor grabbed his daughter and ran off to go puke. I just chuckled at that. The loudspeaker came on again and said loudly "FAR TO OUR RIGHT, YOU CAN JUST MAKE OUT THE WHITE TUFTS OF CLOUDSDALE WHERE PRINCESS TWILIGHT SPARKLE ONCE TOURED THE WEATHER FACTORY!" That's quite creepy.
Twilight said "How he'd know that? And why announce it on a cruise?" I said "I don't know, but that is considered an invasion of privacy and that's not necessarily public knowledge." Of course, this got all the ponies excited and Cadence suggested "Why don't we move to the other side of the deck?" I said "Probably a good idea." We headed to the other side and that stupid minotaur began talking again. He said loudly again "WE ARE NOW HIGH ENOUGH TO SEE ALL OF CANTERLOT, EVEN THE ROYAL TREE WHERE PRINCESS TWILIGHT AND HER BROTHER SHINING ARMOR WERE BORN!" I said "Wait a minute. You can't be born from a tree and you weren't even born an alicorn. So that doesn't even make any sense." Twilight said "I agree. That can't be right." However, all the ponies rushed over to see it, and even her parents believed it, bruh. Twilight went to her parents and said "Um, you guys know that's not where we were born. What are you so excited about?"
Night Light said "Well, it is a really nice tree, sweetheart." Really? Ugh. I just facepalmed and growled in annoyance. Twilight rolled her eyes at that. She looked behind her and of course all the ponies were staring at her. One pony said to her up in her face "We just wanted to say how excited we are to be here!" Nope. You don't talk to her that close. I went into my shadow form and appeared above Twilight's head. I said "Back off pony, and we won't have problems. Understand?" The pony gulped and moved away. Twilight said to me "I appreciate you looking out for me, but I could have handled it myself." I said "I know, but she was spitting in your face and was really close. That's quite creepy and it invades your personal space, so I did it anyway. Your welcome." Twilight laughed at that and said "I figured you would say that. Besides, it just means you care about me." I said "It sure does." Then the darn loudspeaker came on and said loudly again for like the third time now "ON OUR ROUTE NORTH, WE WILL PASS THE SPIRES OF THE CRYSTAL EMPIRE WHERE PRINCESS CADENCE RESCUED HER ALICORN BABY, SPIKE, FROM A MONSTER MADE OF FIRE!" That is completely inaccurate.
I said "Okay first of all, Flurry Heart is Cadence's daughter, not Spike. He lives with Twilight. Second, it was from King Sombra made of shadow. And third, Shining Armor threw Cadence up in the air to save Spike and the Crystal Heart from getting eaten. Seriously, this stupid creature needs to get his facts checked." Both Twilight and Cadence's jaw dropped. Cadence asked me "How did you know that?" I said "It's a really long story. It would take forever to explain. Let's just say that Spike told me part of the story." Cadence said "Okay. But yes, you are right. That doesn't even make sense and is completely inaccurate." Of course, Twilight's parents over there were answering questions from ponies. I heard Night Light say "Well, Royal grandparents sounds a bit fancy, but of course you can take our picture." They really don't see what's going on. Twilight asked "What?" Then we looked around and saw fans of both Twilight and Cadence. Oh dear. I think Iron Will decided to attract unwanted attention from ponies to pester our entire family over here.
Thankfully, I didn't see any shirts or outfits of me anywhere, but I could tell that there were ponies who were fans of me. One tried to come up to me and I immediately detected it. I turned and gave them a death glare. They cowered in fear and went away. Twilight finally had enough and said "OK, that's it!" Yeah, tell them how you really feel, Twilight. "Does anypony know where this cruise announcer is?" They all pointed to the top of the ship and me and Twilight went up there. Twilight opened the door and asked the minotaur annoyed "Excuse me, sir." Iron Will replied loudly "YOU CAN CALL IRON WILL, IRON WILL." Twilight gasped at this and demanded "What are you doing here?! And why do you keep announcing random things about me and my family?" Iron Will got in her face and said yelling in her face "THE ASSERTIVENESS SEMINAR MARKET DRIED UP, SO IRON WILL STARTED A NEW CAREER… ORGANIZING THEMED VACATION PACKAGES!" I said "You mean to tell me that the whole assertiveness thing that turned Fluttershy into a bully dried up?"
Iron Will said angry "WHAT?! HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT?!" I said "I have my ways. Besides, Fluttershy told me herself about what happened, so not only were you turning ponies into brats, but now you're scamming ponies out of their bits." Iron Will replied "THAT IS A COMPLETE JOKE! WHEREVER YOU GOT THAT INFORMATION FROM IS FALSE!" I said "Oh really? Yeah, you'll see later on when ponies start demanding for their money back. Believe me it's going to happen. Also, you can deny that all you wish, but you can't prevent the inevitable." Iron Will was still angry at this, but before he could say anything Twilight asked nervously "And the theme of this vacation is…" Probably a royalty vacation where all her fans get to meet her and Cadence and probably me as well. Iron Will went to the microphone and announced on the loudspeaker "EVERYPONY! STOMP YOUR HOOVES IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE PREMIER 'CRUISE OF THE PRINCESSES' EXPERIENCE! Oh, and of course THE PRINCE AS WELL!" Bruh, now you are gonna throw me in there? Heck no!
We all rushed back to the room to discuss how to resolve this issue. I immediately closed the door with my magic, so that ponies couldn't get in. I also locked it as well just so they couldn't try to open it with their magic. Twilight said to Iron Will "Iron Will, I'm not sure it was entirely honest of you to offer this cruise to my family without telling us that ponies bought tickets just to see Cadence, Zach, and me!" Iron Will replied "Iron Will outlined all the details of the cruise in the prize acceptance and consent form that you signed!" He held it in front of Twilight's parents and Twilight Velvet said "Well, when somepony offers you a free vacation, who reads the fine print?" WHAT? I said annoyed "How could you forget to read the fine print? You always need to read the fine print because there are always hidden details that you don't know about until it's too late."
Iron Will continued "Iron Will prides himself on providing a quality vacation experience, but if Twilight Sparkle and her family don't want it, Iron Will can cancel the cruise and break the hearts of every princess and prince adoring pony on BOARD!" I said "Oh, you're gonna try that tactic? Instill fear into us just so you can get what you want? I don't think so. You can't sway us so easily." Twilight sighed and suddenly a pony from the window shouted in "I love you Princess Twilight!" She closed the curtains and I shouted through the window "Leave us ALONE! We are having a very important discussion and I would appreciate it if you didn't spam Twilight's name every five seconds like she's the most greatest thing on Earth. Do you understand?" The pony nodded and left. Cadence said "As much as I want a family vacation, I don't think I could entertain all of these cruise ponies. My hooves are pretty full taking care of Flurry Heart."
I said "Same. Ponies just get me very irritated when they invade my personal space and won't leave me alone. It's already hard enough trying to write tax law right now, but if one of those ponies pushes me over the edge, oh boy, would they be a goner." Twilight shivered at that and I did as well and I did not want to accidentally get somepony hurt because they were driving me nuts. Twilight Velvet said saddened "I guess we were just so excited by the idea of a family cruise." Night Light got up and said, sighing "All right. I guess we better turn this ship around." Suddenly, Twilight spoke up and said "Wait! Iron Will, what if I offered you a deal?" Umm, are you sure that is a good idea? This might not turn out good. "If I agree to do whatever princess activities you want, will you promise that my family gets to do the activities they want?" Shining Armor said "Sis, you don't have to do that. We want you to enjoy yourself too."
Twilight said "I don't want the vacation now or let down all of these ponies who were looking forward to seeing us." I said "Yes, but your happiness is just as important as the rest of ours. Are you sure that's wise?" Twilight said "I understand your concern, but trust me on this." I said "Okay, if that's what you want." She flew up to Iron Will and said, determined "So what do you say, Iron Will? Do we have a deal?" Twilight extended her hoof and Iron Will said loudly "PRINCESS TWILIGHT HAS A DEAL!" I said annoyed "Can you please lower your volume? My ears are gonna bleed to death if you keep yelling like that." Iron Will rolled his eyes and nodded. However, I did not like when he shook Twilight's hoof to death. Let me fix that. I drained all the pain she felt and it went into my scepter to be disposed of. Just listen and don't ask questions. Twilight said "Great. So it looks like we have some time before Dad plays bingo."
Iron Will pushed Twilight out the door and said loudly AGAIN "ACTUALLY, WE HAVE JUST ENOUGH TO PICK THE WINNER OF OUR GRAND PRIZE RAFFLE." You don't touch her like that, stupid minotaur. You touch her like that again, I will give you a nice fresh claw mark on your face to remind you to keep your hands off my girlfriend. Twilight said "Oh. well *chuckles* who doesn't like prizes?" It depends on what it is. We all went outside and went to see what was going to happen. He said extremely loudly FREAKING AGAIN "ALL RIGHT CRUISE PONIES: WHEN THE ZEPPELIN FLIES IT'S TIME FOR A PRIZE!" I get that he has to yell loud so that everypony can hear him and also to hype up the crowd, but he doesn't have to stand right next to us yelling in our ears. I'm lucky my ears haven't started to bleed to death yet. I think most of my magic is trying to prevent my ears from bleeding.
Of course the crowd cheered in excitement and Iron Will handed the microphone over to Twilight. She said "Thank you all for being so gracious and respectful to me and my family." Ha, that's a lie. We couldn't even go five seconds without somepony telling us how great we were. "And now, without further ado, the winner is…" She used her magic to shuffle the names through the barrel and picked up one. She said "Star Tracker!" Oh, him. He better not try to hit on my girlfriend, otherwise, we are gonna have a problem. The ponies hoof clapped or whatever it's called and Twilight continued saying "Congratulations, Star Tracker! Enjoy your prize." It's not what you think it is, Twilight. She said "Ok dad, Bingo time." She went off with her dad, before she bumped into this dude. That is a creepy smile. He's standing there like a creepy person watching you sleep at 3 AM. That's how freaky it is.
Twilight said "Uh… Oh! I'm sorry, I don't have the prize." I said "It's not a physical prize, Twilight." Twilight looked at me confused and I said "Wait for it." Iron Will said loud and proud "CONGRATULATIONS TO STAR TRACKER WHO WINS THE GRAND PRIZE: SPENDING THE DAY WITH TWILIGHT AS AN HONORARY MEMBER OF HER FAMILY!" Twilight was shocked and asked in horror "That's the prize?!" I said "Told ya." She looked over at Star Tracker and he nodded nervously. Poor guy. But I won't let him hit on my girlfriend over here. Twilight said nervously "OK! Well, I guess you should come with us, honorary family member!" Night Light said "Sure! Hah. There's always room at the bingo table." We headed over there and I whispered to Star Tracker "It's great having you here, but let me make one thing clear to you." I went into my shadow form and said with a dark voice "If you ever try to hit on my girlfriend over there, we will have a problem and you will never see Celestia's sun again. Do you understand?"
Star Tracker gulped nervously and nodded. I went back into my lion form and said "Great. Now let's head to the bingo table. It won't play by itself." We made it to the bingo table and everypony was all set up. I watched from a distance since I didn't feel like playing Bingo right now. Twilight said "Ahem, is everypony ready?" Night Light said "Sure are, Sweetie." I said "Fire away." Twilight couldn't really hear what her dad was saying, but I could. He said again "Give that cage a whirl." She said "Dad? What did you say?" I said loudly in my Royal Canterlot Voice "He said to give it a whirl." I accidentally kinda shook the ship a bit and everypony went wide eyed. I said "Uh, oops. Didn't mean to do that. My bad." Twilight said "He talked so loud, I couldn't hear what he was saying." Dang it. Star Tracker got up in her ear and said "Uh… he… He said to uh… give it a… a whirl." This scared Twilight and she jumped back.
Did this pony seriously forget what I said? I told him not to do that. My anger was starting to boil and Twilight could tell. She said after backing up "Oh! Um, thanks. Also, try not to um do that again. My boyfriend over there gets really mad when other males try to talk to me. It's kinda weird, but he's only looking out for my well being." Star Tracker nodded his head nervously and went back. Thanks Twilight. She gave the cage a roll and she picked up the ball. She said through the megaphone "I-19!" Night Light said "Hey now we're talking! This Princess Bingo is great!" Once again, Twilight didn't hear what he said and asked "Did you get that one, Dad?" I believe he did. Then she said through the megaphone "Can anypony tell me how my dad is doing?" Star Tracker once again not paying attention to what happened before said to Twilight's ear "He uh… he said the Princess Bingo is uh great hah." Now my anger was really hot at this point. Twilight saw this and looked at me that said "Calm down. It's fine. Let me take care of it." That cooled me down and things went on.
Suddenly, all the ponies began chanting "Princess Bingo! Princess Bingo! Princess Bingo!" Even Night Light joined in and said it loud and proud. You're not helping here. Star Tracker got up in Twilight's face again and said "Twilight is my favorite time of day." Mine is too, but that's a weird time to mention that. "Ha ha. And it's also your name." Yes, yes it is. That is really creepy. "Ha ha. I just thought it was cool." Maybe for you. I made it quite clear that you were not supposed to hit on my girlfriend, and what you do? You straight up disobey me and do it anyway. My anger was rising again, but instead of making it obvious, I went into my shadow form and wrapped my shadow around Twilight so I wouldn't get so mad so quickly. I wanted to beat this pony to death, but I don't want to do something I'll regret later on just because my anger flared up.
I could tell Twilight felt my presence and she was quite nervous as she knew my anger level went up again. The next activity was that ridiculous tiny pool thing and Twilight ran over with me still wrapped around her. I went out of my shadow form and was back in my lion form. Twilight said "Whew! Just made it." That darn Star Tracker then appeared and I just went to how I was before because I didn't want my anger to explode. "And I'm ready to give you the tiny boat race of your life!" Uh, I don't know about that. Poor Shining Armor. I trolled him earlier, but I've kinda moved on from that. Twilight slapped him on the back and he gasped in pain. She asked "Are you sure you're not air-sick, Big Brother?" I'm pretty sure he is. Shining Armor said "No way." That's a lie. "How can I be air sick?" I don't know. You tell me. Your entire face is covered in green. "I'm in the water, so it totally cancels out." Yeah, sure whatever, okay.
Twilight said "I don't think that's how it works, but I'm ready if you are." She went to grab a life jacket, but Iron Will stopped her. Would you just go away, you stupid idiot? He said loudly "TECHNICALLY, PRINCESS TWILIGHT SPARKLE SHOULD OFFICIATE THE PRINCESS PADDLE BOAT RACE." I said "Says who?" Iron Will said "IRON WILL SAYS SO!" I said "Yeah, okay sure whatever, lame minotaur." Iron Will got furious at this, but I shot him a death glare that made him back off. Twilight looked down in disappointment and her mother said "Well, I suppose I could race your brother." Twilight said saddened "Oh. Well, as long as Shining Armor gets to race, I'm happy." I'm not happy unless you're happy, Twilight. I can't stand watching you being dragged around like a doormat by Iron Will while the rest of your family is having the time of their lives and you are just miserable sitting on the sidelines.
She teleported over to the other side and ponies began taking pictures. I shot them all death glares and they lowered their cameras in fear. For some stupid reason, Star Tracker came over and was right behind Twilight causing her to bump into him. Twilight gave him a glare, while I shot him a death glare. He chuckled nervously and Twilight said "I know you're an honorary member, but don't keep doing that. My boyfriend is trying his hardest not to take out his anger on you, but if you keep doing that, I might let him have at it." That scared Star Tracker even more and he nodded nervously. Even Twilight doesn't take any stuff from anypony. That was pretty nice. I love it when she does that. Twilight was about to start the race, when Star Tracker got in her face again and said "I'm going to write about this race tonight in my journal!" Good for you. "Ha ha. Uhhh! It's just so exciting!"
I appeared over Twilight's head and growled out a low roar at him to get him to back off. He did and Twilight rolled her eyes at him. She said "On your mark… Get Set…" Star Tracker grabbed the flag and said "GO! Ha ha!" Twilight Velvet took off and raced to the end causing a big wave to come at us. Thankfully, Twilight put up her shield so none of us would get wet and once the wave settled, she put it down. Twilight Velvet said "Ha ha! My word, that was exciting! Wasn't it son? Ha ha ha!" Umm, I don't think he moved at all. He's still sitting in the same position with the same expression on his face. Shining said "Just so everypony knows, I'm getting out of this boat because of how not sick I feel." Everypony can tell you're sick, Shining Armor. You can't hide that from them. They weren't born yesterday. He tried getting out of the boat, but fell into the water. His mother came over and picked him up with her magic.
She said after setting him down "Awww, that's all right dear, we'll take you back to the room." Twilight wanted to come to comfort her brother, but Iron Will stopped her again. I've just about had it with this guy and I just want to tear him to pieces. He said loudly "THAT WAS JUST THE FIRST HEAT OF TEN." What's that supposed to mean? He showed off his chest and his abs or whatever popped up and ugh. That's disgusting. "NOW WHO'S READY TO SEE A PRINCESS FACE WHEN THEY WIN THEIR RACE?" Iron Will gave Twilight the flag and she just waved it nervously while ponies were taking pictures. My anger level just keeps on rising every time this minotaur does something. We went over to where Cadence and Flurry Heart were and my was this interesting. Flurry was stacking babies on top of each other like a bunch of jenga bricks. Twilight said "Cadence. I'm so glad you got in the pee-wee Princess Playtime." Of course you are. Cadence replied "Flurry is having a wonderful time." I can definitely tell since you keep preventing her from lifting other foals in the air.
Twilight said "That's great; I'm just on my way to take some Old-Time Appleoosan Photos." Star Tracker got up next to Twilight and said "Themed photo shoots are the best. Ha ha." I shot him another death glare and hissed at him causing him to back away. Mind you, this is still when I'm in my shadow form and wrapped around Twilight. Cadence asked "What was that about?" Twilight sighed and said "Zach is very protective of me when other males try to talk to me with the exception of my dad and brother. But, to be fair, he cares about my well being." Of course I do. Cadence smirked and said "Sounds like he cares very much about you." Twilight's face turned red and she said "What, oh please. It's just what he does." You technically would be correct. I care very much about your well being and if anything were to happen to you, I would never forgive myself.
"Anyway, I also am going to do a quick question and answer session on becoming an alicorn before Mom's barrel ride at Neighagra Falls." How exciting. I was being sarcastic for the uneducated people out there. "I really hope I don't miss that!" You probably most likely will because somepony is going to ask a really long question and will keep you from doing that. Cadence set Flurry down and asked Twilight with concern "Twilight, are you sure you don't mind doing all of these Princess activities?" Twilight said sorta like a crazy person "Mind? What? Absolutely not!" That's a lie. I notice that you do mind and wish you can have fun, but Iron Will is holding you back. "I mean, you guys are having fun, right?" I said "I'm not. It doesn't make me happy seeing you like this." Twilight sighed and said "Ugh… besides, I have to make sure these cruise ponies are happy if I want to be a good princess." Who cares what other ponies think? If you let them influence your decisions, then you're not very good at your job. I'm just saying.
Cadence said "You're already a good princess, Twilight. Also, listen to what Zachary has to say. He's concerned about how you're feeling, and you can't hide that from him." Twilight sighed again and said "I know. But honestly, as long as I get to see the Northern Stars tonight with everypony, I'll be happy." Sure, yeah okay. Star Tracker poked Twilight to signal her to come on. I hissed at him again and he quickly moved away. "But right now, I gotta go take some pictures. See ya later!" I came out of my shadow form and into my lion form and said to Cadence "I don't care what she says, but I can definitely tell she's not happy. I want her to listen to me, but she's too wrapped up in letting Iron Will and these ridiculous ponies drag her around like a doormat." Cadence said "I know, but she'll eventually come around." I said "I hope you're right. I'll keep trying." I went back into my shadow form and took off after Twilight.
After that long crap, Twilight was rushing over to Neighagra Falls to hopefully catch a barrel ride with her mother. Unfortunately for her, that would not be the case. She said "Oh! Why did that last question have to be a two-parter?" Because ponies are idiots and want details. "I just hope I have time for one barrel ride with Mom." You are sadly mistaken. Also, it didn't help that this stupid Star Tracker keep following us and had that extremely weird smile on his face. I wanted to rip him apart for it, but there are other things to deal with right now. Twilight Velvet opened up the crate and boy was she excited. She looked like she was about ready to crap herself. She said "Ohhh! Neighagra Falls was amazing!" I'm sure it was. "The endless open air! The water on my mane! Oh! The small confines of this barrel!" I'm glad I'm not catastrophic. Because if you were, it would be very uncomfortable in there.
Night Light said to his wife "Ha ha! Another "relaxing vacation" in the books, hon." Twilight looked down in disappointment and I just felt bad for her. Star Tracker was giggling at this. HEY! That's not funny, you idiot! I shot him a death glare and he immediately backed off. Twilight Velvet said "Oh, honey, I know you're disappointed, but we waited as long as we could. Maybe you should take a break from these Princess things?" That sounds like a good idea. Twilight said "Disappointed? No!" Twilight, we know you're lying. You're not fooling anypony here. I know disappointment when I see it. "I've just been answering some detailed questions about Alicorns! You know how much I love details!" I know, but I can tell you are not enjoying yourself in reality. You may deny it, but I know deep down in your heart that you want to have actual fun. Twilight Velvet did say "I just don't want you to forget it's your vacation, too." Yeah, Twilight. Even your mother agrees with me.
However, Twilight still denied it. She said "How can I when it's a totally successful vacation?" Both of her parents looked at each other in confusion, but knew that something wasn't right with their daughter. Night Light said "All right. Well, we can't wait to see those Northern Stars!" They went away and Twilight looked down in disappointment yet again. You can't ignore me forever, Twilight. It will all eventually get to you. That stupid Iron Will came up and yelled "IRON WILL LIVED UP TO HIS SIDE OF THE BARGAIN AND PRINCESS TWILIGHT ONLY HAS ONE MORE THING TO DO FOR THE DAY!" Don't. TOUCH. My. Girlfriend. I went up above Twilight's head and hissed at Iron Will. He was nervous and backed away a little bit. He picked up Twilight and carried her over to the desk.
He said loudly "IT'S YOUR LAST CHANCE. COME AND GET IN LINE IF YOU WANT THE PRINCESS TO SIGN!" How is he able to rhyme so good today? Star Tracker held up the quills, while Iron Will dropped the papers on the desk and everypony got in line for an autograph. After like about 4 hours, Twilight signed the last book and she just sighed. Star Tracker put his book up and Twilight asked "How long have you been waiting?" Probably since this whole thing started. Me and Twilight rolled our eyes and she began to sign. However, something started to glow. Oh no. I know exactly what this is. She started to panic and grabbed Star Tracker saying "Oh no! What time is it?" She ran over to the other side of the ship and witnessed it happen. Then, she began to cry. That Iron Will is GOING TO PAY FOR THAT! I'll blast him so hard it will send him back to last Tuesday.
Twilight said crying "I missed them? I missed the Northern Stars?" Technically, you didn't, but I understand what you mean. She began to cry some more and I wrapped myself tightly around her in my shadow form. Cadence said "You were right, Twilight. They were breathtaking." That's not what she's crying about Cadence. Night Light said "We wish you'd been here to see it, sweet pea, but we're sure you're making a whole bunch of cruise ponies happy." I'm not happy! And I'm angry and upset that STUPID IRON WILL made Twilight cry. I'm beyond furious at this point. I went out of my shadow form to stand by the rest of them and of course that darn Star Tracker said "I'm so happy I could cry." Are you an idiot?! You're just as annoying as Iron Will. As I sent him a death glare, that was just enough to push Twilight over the edge. Oh dear. Here it comes.
Twilight said annoyed "Oh, yeah. The cruise ponies are happy. My family is happy. Even Iron Will is happy." We all looked up and of course he was enjoying the entertainment. I said "I'm not happy that you've been suffering like this." Twilight became furious and said "YOU KNOW WHO ISN'T HAPPY?! ME!" She turned around and crashed into Star Tracker. She stepped on his hoof and he began to cry in pain. He said "Ow! My hoof!" Twilight didn't care in the slightest and said annoyed "I'm sorry, but maybe that wouldn't have happened if you weren't practically standing on my TAIL! Not even my real family stands so close!" She pointed towards me and said to him "I should have let him have at you from the start!" That caused Star Tracker to be even more scared and Twilight slammed her hoof down in frustration and left. Okay, I know that I've treated Star Tracker like crap today, but he does not deserve something like that. That was completely uncalled for, Twilight.
I could have ripped him to pieces, but you know what? I didn't because what good would it do for me to rip somepony apart for dinner just because I'm mad at them? There wouldn't be. Everypony else was looking at me wide eyed and I said "I'm going to talk to her. She'll listen to me." I took off and chased after Twilight. I looked over and saw Twilight looking at the sky. I said "Twilight?" She replied "I only made that deal with Iron Will so that you, my family, and the cruise ponies could have the vacation they wanted." I asked "What about the vacation you wanted?" Twilight replied "I just want everypony to be happy." I said coming closer to her and sitting down "Well, I was never happy seeing you like this. It pained me to see you do all this stuff just so that the rest of us could be happy. You can't fake happiness. Sure, ponies can do it, but it hides the true emotion inside. Besides, you can't please everypony. They ask more from you than what you can give. Trust me. I've known that over the years with being a YouTuber."
Twilight said "You seem to know pretty well." I said "Believe me, I do. Have I ever told you the story about when I first went big on YouTube?" Twilight said "No. I didn't know you had one." I said "Well, it was quite the experience. When I first became big on the platform, people demanded so many things from me. I did my best trying to keep up, but it started to get to me. One day, I went to a fan meet-up and there was a dude that was a fan driving me nuts. He followed me all over the place and constantly invaded my personal space. Finally, after having enough, I completely yelled at him and told him to back the heck off and get out of my sight. I went somewhere else to be left alone, and then one of my mentors came in and talked to me. He told me everything I'm telling you. He also said that people are gonna demand things you can't give and you need to know when to put your foot down and say no. After that, I apologized to the fan and since then, we became friends."
"It's not one of my proudest moments, but I learned a great lesson from that." Twilight went completely wide eyed at this and said "So, you're telling me that you went through the exact same thing I'm going through?" I said "Yeah sure am. Except I didn't step on the guy's foot and tell my significant other to have at it." Twilight went red in embarrassment. She said "I guess I went a bit overboard, didn't I?" I said "Sadly, yes. But we all go through that. It's part of our nature to do that." Twilight sighed and said "I should have listened to you from the start. If I had known this was going to happen, I would have not made that deal with Iron Will." I said "It's not your fault. You didn't know that was going to happen. Don't blame yourself for it." Twilight said "I guess you're right. But why did you tell me that story?" I said "The whole point of the story is don't let ponies drag you around like a doormat and do things that will make others happy, but not yourself. Believe me when I say this. Your happiness is just as important as the rest of ours."
"I know that you don't want to disappoint anypony, but who cares? If ponies get upset about something that's not your fault, you can't control, or something completely reasonable, then that's on them. You might not be the perfect princess in somepony's eyes, but you're perfect in mine." Twilight teared up at this and hugged me. She said "Thank you. I really did need to hear that." I said "Anytime for my beloved princess. Also, just a note. Don't let ponies control your decisions. Only you can do that. If they don't like it, oh well too bad. Screw them." Twilight giggled at this and said "You're right. It would probably be a good idea to set boundaries. But first, I owe somepony an apology." That's my girl. We came in the door and Star Tracker became nervous. He said "Agh! But I think I should go!" Not really. Before Star Tracker could leave, Twilight said "No, Star Tracker, you should stay. I have something to tell you… all of you." Fire away, Twilight.
"I'm glad that you all got to do the things you wanted, but I should have stood up for myself so that I could do what I wanted too." She extended out a wing and put it under Star Tracker's chin. "It wasn't fair of me to lash out at you. If I felt like you were standing too close, I should have said something. Not completely yell at you or threaten to have my boyfriend um beat you up." Suddenly, all eyes turned towards me. My face was the darkest shade of crimson red and I felt like I wanted to die from embarrassment. I looked and they all except for Twilight and Star Tracker shot daggers at me. Even Shining Armor had a furious glare at me for wanting to beat up an innocent pony. I quickly said "I did not say that I wanted to beat up anypony. That might have been the result of my super heated anger. I struggle from anger issues and I was trying my best not to lash out. However, it wasn't me that did that. As you can umm all tell."
Twilight turned back to Star Tracker and said "I'm sorry." She took the thing that he had around his neck and put it on for him. Then, Twilight had an idea. She said "What do you say we do something off the schedule?" Sounds good to me. This all drawn gasps and I just rolled my eyes. It's not that surprising, people or I guess ponies in this case. Star Tracker asked "Who are you?" The Princess of Friendship and my girlfriend? Yep, sounds about right. Twilight said "Yep! We're gonna do something I want us to do as a family." She looked at Star Tracker and said "Honorary members too." My hatred towards him vanished completely, so I'm good now. We all headed outside and oh, this is what it was. It was none other than Ice Cream. I had mine and Twilight gave one to Star Tracker. Then, she went over to Shining Armor who turned green again and Twilight just laughed while I just smirked. He was quite annoyed with it, but I didn't care. Flurry Heart picked it up however and began eating it.
I stood next to Twilight and wrapped one wing around her because well, I can. Twilight took notice of this and blushed of course. I just chuckled and we all began to laugh. Star Tracker looked over and said "You and your family have really kind to include me, but you deserve your own vacation together." I said "I necessarily didn't. I should have accepted you from the start, but I let my own bitterness and jealousy get the better of me. I promise I'll give you a second chance next time." Star Tracker said "Thanks." Twilight went over to him and Star Tracker said "Ha ha. And I'm really glad we met too. Ha ha." Twilight hugged him and I felt some of the anger return, but I let the scepter silence that. Star Tracker went to go to the other side, but ran straight into Iron Will. He said loudly "ATTENTION, CRUISE PONIES! IF IT'S YOUR DREAM, COME TO THE DECK FOR ICE CREAM!" How does he come up with such good RHYMES?! UGH! He picked up the cart and shook it to death. Poor old pony. She was trying to have a nice evening when this stupid minotaur has to pick up the whole thing and nearly cause her to fall off.
Star Tracker finally had enough and said "Oh no! Leave the Princess alone!" However, Iron Will became angry and said "WHAT DID YOU SAY TO IRON WILL?!" I said "Are you deaf or something? You heard what he said. Unless you want to pick a fight, I suggest you shut your mouth and go somewhere else, you stupid minotaur." Everypony gasped at this and I rolled my eyes. Twilight said "It's OK, everypony." She grabbed the microphone, flew up in the sky, and began speaking. She said "Ahem. First, I want to thank you all for coming." I flew up as well to take a listen to what she was saying. "It means a lot that you'd spend your hard earned bits just to be with us, but I honestly came on this cruise to take some time off from being a princess. I'm just a pony too, after all." That's the problem with these ponies. They think because somepony is royalty, that they are extremely pure and don't suffer from problems. BIG FAT LIE! If any of you ponies think that, screw you and go f yourself.
Twilight flew down and continued on. I flew down as well. "And even though I want everypony here to be happy, I'd really like to spend the rest of the cruise relaxing with my family." She grabbed me and pulled me in close for a side hug. Aww, that's cute. I'm just teasing. Calm down, people. Thankfully, the ponies finally understood and one of them said "Of course Princess Twilight!" Another one said "But why was this trip advertised as a Cruise of The Princesses and Prince if you just wanted to get away?" I said "Probably because some stupid idiot thought it would be a good idea to scam ponies out of their bits just so that they could be right next to royalty." Iron Will replied "That is a lie." No it's not you idiot. "Iron Will's Cruise of the Princesses and Prince makes no guarantees as to the participation of actual princesses or princes." I said "That's the same thing you idiot! Can't you see your own lie?" One of the ponies said "What?" and ponies started shouting angrily. See, now ponies want their money back. However, Iron Will is going to refuse to give the money back.
As the ponies ganged up on him, Iron Will said nervously "BUT IRON WILL LEARNED HIS LESSON BEFORE. SATISFACTION NOT GUARANTEED. NO REFUNDS!" Suddenly, he jumped off the cruise and began to fall. Everypony gasped and looked down. He then got a parachute and of course it had a picture of him with tons of gold bits as if he was rich or something. Shining Armor said "Wow. He may be pushy and manipulative, but nopony can say that Minotaur isn't prepared." I agree with you on that statement. I said "Hmm, sounds like the next "relaxing thing" for your mother to do Twilight. If you're picking up what I'm putting down." Night Light said "I don't know. What do you think, honey?" His wife said "Hmm? Oh yes, most definitely." Okay, Discord. After a bit, Twilight was walking with Cadence holding the list of things to do and what not. I was in my shadow form wrapped around Twilight just so it wasn't cramped in there.
She said "There's still plenty of activities. We pass Fillydelphia on the way back; I could give Flurry Heart a quick history tour!" I said "Oh, that sounds interesting." Cadence gasped at that and said "Woah. That's kinda creepy." Twilight replied "He does that a lot. It's part of his personal protection of me. Because of what his title says, I'm his number one priority. So, even though it can be over the top sometimes, he does everything he can to keep me safe. What's so funny?" Cadence stopped laughing and said "Oh Twilight. Sounds like to me that you two are dating." Yes, you would be correct. Twilight's face went red. She said "What? No!" Cadence said "Twilight. I'm the Princess of Love. I know all the signs. You can't hide them from me." Twilight sighed and said "Okay, I guess it's true. But please don't tell Shining Armor. I know he'll get mad at Zach if he found out." Cadence said "I promise I'll keep quiet. But you'll have to tell him eventually." Twilight said "I know, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it."
Cadence said "That's very nice, but right now, the family and I have something scheduled for you." Twilight got confused at this and Night Light began to talk. He said "Behold the Northern Stars!" He had a sun there and up came Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, and Twilight Velvet. Of course Flurry flew around and Twilight began to let tears fall from her eyes. Hey, I planned this too. I just didn't include it in the story because it would be too boring to add in. She said "You did all this for me?" and wiped away the tears. "This is amazing! Thank you!" Cadence said "It was actually Zachary's idea to do this." Twilight said "What? He came up with this idea?" Cadence replied "It sure was. He felt bad all day and decided this would cheer you up. He said it's not the best, but he tried." Twilight began to tear up some more and she said to me "Zach. Come on out." I complied and returned to my lion form. She absolutely hugged me to death and I said gasping "Twilight… I *gasp* need… *gasp* air!" Twilight's face turned red and she said "Oh, um sorry."
I said "It's fine. I know you wanted to thank me, and I appreciate it." She said " I do very much. It means a lot that you tried." I said "It's not the best though." She said "It doesn't matter to me. What matters is that you did this for me." I smiled at that and she turned to Shining Armor. She said "And Shining Armor, I can't believe you're up there even though you're air-sick." Shining Armor became annoyed at this and said "I am not air-" before turning green again. He said "Ok, maybe I'm not feeling that great." I said "Finally, you admit that you have airsickness. Only a fool would deny that he would have that problem." Shining Armor rolled his eyes and Night Light set him down on the bench. The rest of them laughed and we gathered around the bench. Of course, with Twilight being in the middle, she had me next to her and gathered us all in a group hug.
She said "Now this is the only activity I need." We all went closer and the ship almost returned to Canterlot. Suddenly, the real Northern Star passed over. Huh, that's odd. It's only supposed to appear in the Frozen North, but whatever. After the ship returned to Canterlot, we all said our goodbyes and me and Twilight headed back to Ponyville. I said "Well, that was actually an interesting vacation. Much better than writing stupid tax law." Twilight said "I told you that it would be nice." While we were flying, there was some silence. Then, Twilight asked "Zach? What do you think Shining Armor will say about us?" I said "What makes you say that?" Twilight sighed and said "After having that talk with Cadence, it suddenly made me think about what Shining Armor says about us." I said "Twilight. It doesn't matter what your brother says about us. I know he's awfully protective of you, but don't let him influence your decisions. If you feel happy being with me, then that's okay. Listen to what your heart says."
Twilight says "What if he doesn't like us being together?" I said "What your brother says does not matter to me and shouldn't matter to you either. If you are happy, then your brother's opinion doesn't matter. Are you happy being with me?" Twilight said "YES! I always have been and always will." I said "Then, it doesn't matter what he says. If you are happy, then that's all that matters to me. And besides, if your brother doesn't like it, too bad. Also, don't worry about it. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. When you're ready to tell him, then I'll be there. Until then, don't stress over it." Twilight said "How do you always know what to say?" I said "The same way you always know what to say to me." Twilight giggled at this and said "I guess that's true." I said "You sometimes worry too much." Twilight said "Can you honestly blame me for that?" I said "No I don't and I never will. It's just part of who you are. You have your flaws and I have mine."
Twilight said "That is true. You like me for who I am, and I like you for who you are." After she said that, she leaned in for a slow, passionate kiss. I returned it since I wanted to do this earlier but I didn't want to embarrass myself on the ship and I could tell Twilight didn't want to either. How we managed to do this while flying was a miracle. I guess my magic prevented us from getting exhausted. After probably like a good solid ten minutes, we pulled away and continued on our journey back to Ponyville. We finally returned to the castle and boy was I tired. I went back to the library and I said "Well, since we are home, time to get back to writing tax law." Twilight teleported in front of me and said "Oh no you're not. Since we were around a bunch of ponies, we couldn't really be around each other too much. You're coming with me. We need some much needed alone time." I said "But Twilight. I've already delayed this long enough." Twilight said "I don't care. Come on, don't you want to have alone time with your favorite mare?" Ugh! The temptation. I can't resist. You can call me stupid all you want, but if you were in the same situation, you would do the same.
I said, sighing "Okay. Take me away. I guess I could wait a little while longer." Twilight smiled and said "Great! Now come on!" She pulled me with her magic and dragged me to her "royal" chambers. Yes, we were going to have some romantic fun. We like each other and we wanted to do this on the ship, but we couldn't because of fear of embarrassment. After she dragged me in, she gave me another slow, passionate kiss. Then it turned into a makeout session. Man, I will always love this mare.
AN: Another chapter done! This was probably my favorite chapter to write so far. It was so fun to write! This was my favorite episode of Season 7 and I couldn't wait to write it. So here it is. Also, I know there may be some borderline colorful language, but I kept it as PG clean as possible. One more thing is that all the jokes that I make here are to be taken with a grain of salt. This isn't meant to offend anyone or be taken seriously, it's only for entertainment purposes. So hopefully that will keep the Karens away. Karens, please don't sue me since I don't have the money for a lawsuit. Just lighten up and let me live my life in peace. Hope you guys enjoyed the chapter!
Next Chapter: Lies with Pies! Pinkie Pie keeps giving Rainbow Dash pies just because she feels like it, but she doesn't realize that Rainbow doesn't really like them and lies to Pinkie that they were good. Zachary takes notice of this and knows this is wrong. He and Pinkie come up with a plan to expose Rainbow for her lying. After she is caught, she is at a loss for words. Will she be able to explain herself, or will the truth be too much to bear for her friends?
Until then, my fellow readers
