I was standing watching a magic show for some reason with my beloved and her dear sister-n-law Cadence and Flurry. Yes, I called Twilight my beloved, but she pretty much is in my eyes. There were some other ponies as well. As much as I despise Trixie, I'll humor Twilight and keep my mouth shut. Starlight said "I don't know, folks." What do you mean by that? "She's been in there a long time." Oh. I didn't notice that. Everyone gave a frightening gasp and looked at the box in suspicion just to entertain the thought. I wasn't acting skeptical like I usually do, but I actually was curious because even though I don't like Trixie, I would never wish death on her. No matter how much someone annoys me, I never wish death on my worst enemies. Sure, some people's actions are deserving of death, but that's not my place to judge that on them. That's God's job and no one else's. He is known as the righteous judge and will have an answer to each and every action one day. I'm not being religious here, I'm just empathizing a point and that's just how I do it. If you don't like it, too bad. Deal with it. "Do you suppose the Terrifying Trunk Escape is too much for her?" Not really. I mean, it could be. But if she can survive a manticore, she'll be able to get out of a locked chest.

"What if the Great and Powerful Trixie can't-" before Trixie appeared behind us. Trixie said "Escape?" Of course. Two can play at that game you know. The crowd gasped in excitement and Starlight asked "But if you're there, who's in here?" That's actually a good question surprisingly. Very impressive Trixie. But I still don't like you, so don't bother. Trixie appeared on stage and said "Why, our volunteer! Of course." I wonder who it is. GRANNY SMITH?! TRIXIE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! OH, YOU'LL SHALL PAY FOR THAT ONE! Granny wheezed a bit and said "Crab-apple surprise! You should oughta tell a pony before you go a-poofing 'em around a stage!" You tell them how you feel, Granny. Poor her. Seriously, who signed off on this? Not only is that kidnapping, but it's abusing the elderly. Respect your elders, kids. It'll help you in the long run. Trust me. Here Granny is probably just enjoying her day, and the next thing she knows, this arrogant and self-centered pony kidnaps her and puts her in a magical box to be put on stage for entertainment. Ridiculous. The crowd cheered and I gave an angry glare at Trixie. No one noticed thankfully, but I'll give her a piece of my mind later. When the crowd left, we walked over to Trixie and Twilight said "Trixie, that was an amazing show!" Eh, I've seen better. Cadence said "Flurry Heart and I loved it. I'm so glad we decided to come. You two have a real chemistry." That's a massive understatement. Trixie said "The Terrifying Trunk Escape does require a great and powerful assistant." Of course. The typical response from a pony like her.

Cadence said "The way you two worked together, it's like you've known each other as long as Twilight and I have." Oh. I see where you're going Cadence. You can't hide your thoughts from me. Starlight said "It was pretty fun." For the most part. Twilight said "Of course, it was! Isn't that right, Zach?" I said "Yeah, for the most part. The only thing though is I'm really angry that SOMEPONY decided to kidnap an elderly pony in a magical box to be put on stage for ENTERTAINMENT!" I gave my death glare at Trixie and Twilight shot me a glare. "What? You asked for my opinion. That's what you get. I'm just hard and blunt like that." Twilight rolled her eyes and looked back at Starlight saying "There's nothing better than a bond with another pony." Now, that I can agree on. "You can share all kinds of things." I wish I had that. I put my head down slightly because I never seem to have anything in common with anybody anymore. I always thought I did, but I'm just too different. Twilight did that whole thing with Cadence and I took my leave. Starlight said "I think we'll stick to the stage magic for now." Yeah, that's probably less cringey than that.

Trixie said "The great and powerful Trixie doesn't chant." I said "The "great and powerful" Trixie also doesn't want to admit her mistake when they're out in the open." Trizie growled and I gave my death glare back at her. "I'll take my leave for now. If you excuse me, I have a kingdom to conquer. See ya!" I roared as loud as I could and took off. I heard Cadence whisper to Twilight "He's not really going to conquer Equestria is he?" Why does everyone assume that? Twilight whispered back "No. That's just something he does. It's an excuse he makes up when he doesn't want to be around anymore and does his own thing. It's weird, but that's just how he is." At least Twilight can acknowledge that. Anyways, I saw Trixie and Starlight grab everything and leave Ponyville. Have fun ladies. This is the episode where both of them travel to Saddle Arabia and it gets quite hectic. Hmm. IDEA! Since Cadence went back to the Crystal Empire, that leaves the rest of the day free. There is the school that has to be dealt with, but I have a fix for that. No, I'm not going to make it disappear. I ain't Sombra. Also, it seems like both of them aren't going to be back for a couple days since it takes much longer to get to Saddle Arabia by cart instead of train. It's like going on a roadtrip in a car instead of a plane. It will take much longer in a car instead of a plane because cars don't go as fast as a plane does. I also have the perfect place I want to take Twilight. And no, it's not Manehattan. I've been there too many times already and Fillydelphia seems too boring. So, that leaves me with one option left: Baltimare.

It's obviously a pun for Baltimore, but it makes sense for this world. That is the closest the creators will ever get to guessing where I am from. They got the state right, but not the city. It's only an hour down the road. Also, my favorite NFL team plays its home games there. If you understand what I'm talking about, you will know. If you don't, keep reading. I came back to the castle and I looked for Twilight. I found her in the library reading a book. Time to troll her. I summoned a black shadow from my scepter and lured the book away from Twilight. She wasn't very happy about that. She said "Who is doing that?! Reveal yourself! You can't hide forever!" I said "Would you hurt me?" I appeared in my lion form and Twilight dropped all of the anger on her face. Instead, she said "Zach. Can I have my book back?" I only held it back farther in response and eventually was standing on her hind legs trying to get it. "This isn't funny, Zach! Please give it back." I said "Then why are you smirking?" Twilight reached even higher in response and I eventually fell over with Twilight falling on top of me. "Well, we don't need this book anymore. We'll just throw it out the window." I threw it onto the couch and Twilight gave me a pouty face.

"Why are you giving me that face?" Twilight said in a whine like voice "Because I was enjoying that until you came in here." I said "Oh, and me not being around is SOOO much better?" Twilight went wide eyed and said "No! I love having you around! I would never think that! It's just that I like my books." I said "I'm just teasing, Twilight." Twilight playfully hit me in the side, but I knew she wasn't serious. She said "Why are you even here in the first place, my handsome prince?" I said "Well, my beautiful princess, I saw Starlight and Trixie leave for Saddle Arabia earlier and it gave me an idea." Twilight raised a brow and asked "Oh? And what that might be?" I said "I thought it would be a good idea for us to do something similar just to spend time with one another." Twilight said "And where is it that you want us to go?" I said "I planned for us to go to none other than Baltimare." Twilight said "Wow! I didn't think you knew that was a city here in Equestria." I laughed and said "Oh, Twilight. I know every city in Equestria and where they are located. I didn't want to go to Manehattan because we've been there too many times, and I don't want to go to Las Pegasus because I'll have to deal with a bunch of crazy ponies, so I thought Baltimare was a good choice. I've always wanted to visit there and it has a significance with me back home." Twilight said "What's that?" I said "I'll tell you once we get there. So, we better started heading that way if I were you."

Twilight said "Wait. What about the school?" I said "I have that covered and I promise it's not Discord this time, so don't worry." Twilight said "Well, if you say so." I said "Well, if you're ready, shall we get packing, my beautiful princess?" Twilight giggled and said "Of course, my handsome prince." We went to go pack and after we were finished, we headed towards the door. I said "You got everything you need, Twi?" Twilight said "Yep. I have everything. I even double and triple checked everything." I said "Of course you did. I know you all too well." Twilight said "Don't act like I don't know you all too well as well." I said "Fair point." We opened the doors and we headed out. We went to the train station to wait for the train to Baltimare. This is going to be fun. I mean it this time. I can't wait to visit this city finally. The show never showed the fanbase what the city looked like for some reason, yet they showed us Manehattan so many times. The train finally arrived and we took our perspective places. I sat down in my spot and Twilight sat next to me with her forehooves wrapped around me and resting her head on my chest. Some ponies were exchanging weird glances at us, but I didn't care. She's the one I care about most and will do anything to have her near me away from harm. The train started moving and is now on the road to Baltimare. "Off we go to Baltimare!" Twilight giggled and continued being near me.

[Insert Life is a Highway by Rascal Flatts]

The train was moving at a fast pace and I had the Life is a Highway music playing in the background. Even though we're not on the road in a car, we're still moving in a form of transportation as we go through rural areas and towns and other things while going on a cross country roadtrip. I looked on the map and while it doesn't look that far away, it's still a 2 hour roadtrip. Back home, I would be traveling north, but in this world, I'm traveling east. North would be to the Crystal Empire and it's too cold to be going there right now. I looked out the window and the scenery was just beautiful outside. The road to Baltimare had a lot of interesting things to see as you enter the city limits. I could tell we were getting close because we had just entered Baltimare County and downtown is not too far away from the county limits. After like 20 minutes, there was a green road sign that said "Welcome to Baltimare: The Home of Science and Medical Research." After we passed the sign, I could see the tall skyscrapers in downtown Baltimare and it looked very similar to Baltimore, MD. When we finally arrived at the station, we got off and it already looked so beautiful. It looked even better than Manehattan. Don't tell Rarity that.

I said "This city looks so beautiful! I can't even remember the last time I've seen a city this amazing." Twilight smirked and said "Someone's getting excited." I said "Says the pony that dragged me all over the place the last time we went to Manehattan together to visit the Starswirl the Bearded museum." Twilight said "Touche." and we headed to the hotel. The guy put our luggage on a cart and transported it upstairs. Twilight said "So, what expensive room did you buy this time?" I said "The penthouse on the top level." Twilight's jaw dropped and she asked "How much did that cost?!" I said "Well, let's see here. Hmm. I think I spent 650,000 bits on this room which would equal out to $6.5 billion back home." Twilight's jaw dropped even further and she said "That's the price of a private yacht! How do you get all this money?" I said "I don't know. I just summon it and it doesn't suffer from inflation." We walked in and it looked even more beautiful. I paid the cart pony his dues and he left. Twilight looked around agape in the room and couldn't believe her eyes. She said "You spoil me too much." I said "I guess that's a fair argument. But at least I did it for the most beautiful mare in all of Equestria and shines brighter than all of the stars in the sky."

Twilight's face went blood red in embarrassment and she said "You're so corny sometimes." I said "I know, but you appreciate it anyways." Twilight said "I might. But do you really think I'm beautiful?" I said "Of course! I can't find any mare that is prettier than you and I mean it from the bottom of my heart." Twilight blushed and gave me playful eyes. She said "Well then, if you think so, then I shall do something about that." I said "And what would that-" before Twilight slammed her lips against mine and gave me a deep passionate kiss. It soon turned into a makeout session and after we did that, we stared into each other's eyes for a little bit. I said "Well, I guess that does count for being the most beautiful mare in all of Equestria." Twilight giggled and said "I think you might exaggerate a tad bit." I said "Not really. I am totally for real." Twilight said "Well, it makes me happy that you care that much about me." I said "Well, that's my job. To make you as happy as I can for as long as the both of us live." Twilight smiled and kissed me once more. After that, we got up and went outside on the balcony. I looked towards the Celestial Sea and I saw a massive building sitting on an island.

I said "Look, Twilight! It's the Equestrian Medical Research Center over there!" Twilight said "You know about that?" I said "Of course I do. Before we came here, I studied up on my history and the road sign that welcomed us to the city said it was the home of science and medical research, so it kinda gave it away." Twilight said "I guess that is true. It seems like I'm rubbing off you a little bit." I said "I see what you mean. That is a fair point. But, I'd rather have you rub off of me than anypony else in this world. You're the only one in this world whose opinion I value the most." I could see Twilight's cheeks get red. I believe they got so hot that it could easily roast marshmallows. I think she was burning up. "Well then, I believe we shall get going and explore the city, what do you say?" Twilight snapped out of her train of thought and said "Yeah. Let's go." We left the hotel and headed towards the harbor. I remember back home, Baltimore was a major harbor for international trade and things would come in and out specifically for the state of Maryland. I saw a sign and it said there were tours of the medical research center going for 5,000 bits if anyone dared to pay that kind of money.

I went up to the pony and said "Here's 5,000 bits for ya." The pony went wide eyed and said "Prince Zachary! You don't need to give me those bits." I said "I don't? The sign said 5,000 bits." The pony said "That's just for regular ponies. Royalty gets in for free." Oh, that's nice. I said "Well, since I'm traveling with my beloved, I guess I didn't have to spend more money on things." The pony went wide eyed again and said "Princess Twilight! What an honor! Two royals here in Baltimare! Can this day get any better?" I said laughing a bit "Your wish is my command!" I gave him a signed autograph of me and Twilight did the same. The pony went crazy and calmed himself down when he saw our smirks. He said "Pardon me for my umm antics. I never get this excited." I said "It's okay. It's actually quite nice for a change compared to most ponies kissing our hooves and paws like we're gods or something. You're fine." The pony cleared his throat and said "Well, if you just hop on that boat, you should be able to get to the Medical Research Center no problem. Have a nice day, you two." I said "You have a good one too, sir!" We went on the boat that was sitting right there and went across the Celestial Sea to get to the Research Center. At least now, I can get a closer look at this facility. We made it to the other side and got off the boat.

We went up to the gate and the guards bowed before both of us before opening the gates allowing us entry. When we got to the front door, one of the medical scientists was standing right there and said "Greetings Prince Zachary and Princess Twilight! What brings you over here?" I said "Well, since I haven't been to Baltimare yet, I came to visit and when I saw this giant building here, I knew I just had to come over here. It was nice to get free admission considering I already spent so much money just for a flipping hotel room. Besides, my beloved loves everything science. Isn't that right, Twilight?" Twilight nodded happily and said "Of course! Science is one of my favorite subjects!" I chuckled a bit and said to the scientist "As you can tell, my beloved here loves it. So it's basically a win win scenario." The medical scientist said "I see. Very well then. I guess we should get on with this tour shall we?" Both of us nodded and we went inside. It looked so interesting. We see things ranging from science labs to testing areas. It looked so cool in here. However, I did feel like something was being hidden. But it doesn't matter to me. This is way too cool. After the tour, we made it back to the front of the building and the medical scientist said "Well, I hope you two enjoyed this tour. We don't get many pony tourists around that often because well, most of them can't afford it. But I appreciate you two coming out."

I said "Anytime, my good sir. It's ironic how ponies can afford to live here in Baltimare, but not afford tickets. However, that's just how ponies are. Some expenses they are willing pay for while they won't for others. That's always how it's been back where I'm from. The medical scientist chuckled a bit and said "Indeed, my dear friend." I said" Well, I hope you and the rest of the crew have a good rest of your day and we'll take our leave so that you may get back to your work." The medical scientist bowed once more and said "You too sir." We opened the doors and headed back towards the gate. The guards opened the gate and we waited for the boat. Thankfully, it came right over in like 2 minutes, so we didn't have to wait that long. We got on the boat and headed back onto the mainland of downtown Baltimare. We got off the boat and headed more into downtown. Twilight said "Something about that medical scientist seemed suspicious. I feel like there was an area in that building he was hiding." I said "I understand what you mean. I feel like that too, but it doesn't really matter. It was really exciting to look at and we got to spend time together, so that's a bonus."

Twilight smiled and said "That's a fair point. So what do you want to do next?" As if on cue, my stomach growled very loudly. I looked away in embarrassment and Twilight smirked. "Well, I guess lunch it is then. I'm kinda getting hungry too." We headed over to one of the restaurants sitting on Restaurant Row. It turns out there was a Hayburger here in Baltimare. Pretty cool. Twilight loves that place and I can get something to eat in my favorite city in Equestria. So, it's a win win situation. We ordered our food and we sat down at one of the booths near the window eating it. Sorry for not being descriptive, but I really don't need to go into detail about eating horse food with my beloved girlfriend, so that's why. I said "I honestly didn't really know that they would have a Hayburger location in Baltimare." Twilight said "Of course. They practically have one in every city in Equestria. It's not a Ponyville exclusive thing." Oh, I thought it was. After we finished eating, we threw our stuff away and headed out. We flew up in the air because I wanted to look at the skyline of the city and it looked even better from up here.

[insert Immortals by Fall Out Boy]

We started flying around fast trying to keep up with each other and cutting corners quickly. We even slid on buildings before flying back up again. I did some crazy stunts and backflips before flying up super high in the sky and descending back down. Some ponies got curious, but I didn't care what they thought. I was having fun with my mare and it was just me and her. We kept doing it for several minutes and we didn't have a single care in the world about what others thought. We flew for a little bit more and then descended back towards the ground. I said "That was fun." Twilight said "It sure was. I don't know how we got to that point, but I don't care." I said "Agreed." Twilight rested her head on my neck when she suddenly made an "Eeek!" noise and I don't mean the one where you're excited. "What's wrong?" Twilight said "I'm not sure. I feel like someone touched my flank, but I have no idea." I grew suspicious and angry at the same time. I'll let this slide for now, but if it happens again, I will find this pony and they SHALL SUFFER MY WRATH! We walked around and Twilight asked me "So, do you know any history about this city?" I said "Well, this city is actually a pun for a city named Baltimore which is in the state of Maryland."

"Even though Baltimore is awfully close, I didn't come from there." Twilight asked "So where did you come from?" I said "Well, I'm actually from Landover, MD which is only an hour down the road from Baltimore and my favorite NFL sports team plays there. It was named the Washington Redskins until people outside the fanbase thought it was racist to Native Americans or some bullcrap like that and now it's called the Washington Football Team which really is such a dumb name because it's not unique. But I don't have time to ramble on about that issue. Anyways, they've sucked for a long time, so I started liking a team called the Baltimore Ravens. So Hasbro adding in this city is the closest they'll ever get to home. Home." I held my head downcast as the painful memories of what happened to my parents resurfaced. Twilight noticed and she gave me comfort which really did help. She said "It's okay. You didn't need to talk about it. I'll be right here with you the entire time." I smiled at her and said "Thanks Twilight. It's honestly really sad for me. I just can't bear the pain of it." Twilight put her hoof to my lips and said "Shh. You don't have to talk about it. We all have those painful memories. Just remember those who care about you and it'll help you on those days where you are struggling." I nodded and we continued walking.

Both of our tails were swaying back and forth against one another as we walked down the city streets. It started getting late and we decided to get some dinner, but didn't feel like going out anywhere. We headed back to the penthouse and I said "Since we don't feel like having dinner anywhere, allow me to set up the perfect dinner." I moved the coffee table and summoned a regular table with two chairs using my scepter and Twilight was astonished. She said "Wow! I didn't know you could do that!" I said laughing a bit "Twilight. The scepter can do many things. Everything it does follows on my command unless the Tree of Harmony says so." Twilight looked in wonder for another couple of seconds before I started putting things together. "So, what do you want for dinner, my beautiful princess?" Twilight thought for a moment before saying something that horses eat. (AN: I'm sorry, but I really can't think of anything because my stupid brain refuses to work, so this is all I got. Sorry for the inconvenience.) I said "Your wish is my command!" I summoned it and it was all nice and cooked ready to eat while adding other things like cider as well because I don't drink wine.

Sorry, I just don't like it. Hate the smell of alcohol. Also, I'm not going to try and pick fights with people before getting put in the cooler for the night because I'm drunk. Once everything was set, I pulled out Twilight's chair for her and extended my paw towards the chair. Twilight giggled and she sat down. I took my respective seat and we ate. I said "Enjoying your dinner, my dear?" Twilight giggled and said "Yes, honey. It's lovely." Did she just call me honey? I'm honored. I finally get a nickname from her. I mean, obviously, the name she gives me is handsome prince, but my nickname is honey. It feels like the romantic train is on the move in the right direction once more. After we finished dinner, I said "Shall we move on to dessert?" Twilight said "Yes!" I laughed a bit and said "Well, what do you think about chocolate and peanut butter?" Twilight's eyes lit up and she said "I love chocolate and peanut butter!" I laughed some more and I said "Well, I can fix that right up." I summoned some dessert on the table using my scepter and I looked at Twilight. "Open up, my dear." Twilight obliged and I popped chocolate in her mouth. She said "Your turn." I opened my big lion mouth and I was able to devour that thing in seconds.

I was about to eat another one, but Twilight stole it from me with her teeth and ran away with it. I said "Hey! That's mine." She smirked and said "If you want it, come get it." She started running away and I immediately caught up to her where I fought with my own teeth in order to get it. Twilight had some strength, but hers stood no chance against mine. She surrendered the chocolate and I devoured it. I said "You can never defeat the King of All Beasts!" Twilight smirked and said "Oh, really?" I raised a brow in suspicion and she kissed me. It was kinda interesting since both of us had peanut butter breath, but neither of us cared enough to do anything about it. I said "That never gets old. Although, it was interesting kissing you with peanut butter breath. Not that I mind." Twilight said "It was the same, but I simply don't care enough." I said "Me neither." We kissed for several more minutes and then we rested against one another. After a bit, I yawned. I said "Shall we head to bed, my beautiful princess? The King of All Beasts needs his rest in order to defend and protect Equestria." Twilight giggled and said "Of course, my handsome prince." We got up and headed to bed. Twilight was next to me and wrapped her hooves around me. I turned off the light and said "Goodnight, my beautiful princess." Twilight yawned and said "Goodnight, my handsome prince." I smiled and both of us fell asleep.

A few hours later…

I suddenly woke up to the noise of shouting and things burning. What the heck could be going on at this time of night? I got up out of the bed and I was horrified at what I saw. Ponies were rioting on the streets burning everything down and holding up signs of protest. I need to do something about that. I nudged Twilight and said "Twilight. We have a problem." She mumbled something and fell back asleep. Oh boy this is going to be difficult. "Twilight!" That got her to wake up and she said "Wha-What?! Why are you up at this late hour?" I said "Look out the window Twilight." She went to the window and she was also horrified at what she saw. "You see what I mean?" Twilight looked back at me and said "We need to do something!" I said "I agree. But we must investigate what is going on first before we can do anything." Twilight nodded and we teleported outside. I zoomed in to see what the sign was and it said "Only Ponies should be here!" I stared at that for a second and immediately knew what that meant. I snarled in anger as someone was trying to make me look bad and wanted me kicked out. I don't think so buddy. I looked to see where the crowds were going and they were headed straight to the town hall to have the mayor put a restraining order on me so I can't come back.

Twilight asked me "What did the signs say?" I said "It said that only ponies should be allowed in this city. What that means is someone is targeting me and wants me kicked out of the city. So they stirred up the citizens and have them march to the town hall to protest while also burning down buildings and holding up signs." Twilight went wide eyed for a second and then she grew angry. She said "How can somepony do something like that?!" I sighed and said "Unfortunately, ponies will find anything to use against me no matter what the result was and uses that as their basis for their hatred. However, we must go to the town hall and stop the crowds before they storm the town hall." Twilight nodded and we headed to Town Hall. We stood in front of it and the crowds arrived all shouting and everything with their signs and torches, but they don't scare me in the slightest. I lit up my scepter and had SWAT block the entrance just to keep law and order and everypony back. Twilight tried speaking to them, but the crowd of angry ponies refused to listen. What they did in response was start throwing rocks and beer bottles towards us. I had to put up my shield around me and Twilight so we wouldn't get hit because that does not feel nice on your skin or fur in this case when it's going that fast.

I tried looking for the lynchpin of the crowd, but I couldn't see anything. However, I would get my answer in just a couple of seconds. Twilight made that same noise as earlier and I turned around to see who it was so I can finally figure out who even DARED to touch my beloved in an inappropriate way. He tried running, but I picked him up my magic and set him down in front of us. I looked at him for a second and I knew exactly who this was. I said "YOU! You were the one who gathered up people to storm the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. after Biden won and was revealed as an antifa member! *snarls at him* YOU SHALL PAY FOR THIS!" The pony smirked and said "Well, it looks like you caught me. It doesn't matter now because it's too late. My army will storm this building and demand that foul beasts like you shall be removed from this PONY ONLY CITY!" I said "SILENCE!" and then I let out a massive roar in anger and scratched him across the face giving him a scar above his right eye. That seems to happen a lot. Oh well. Doesn't matter. "HOW DARE YOU SPEAK ABOUT ME LIKE THAT! I AM THE KING OF ALL BEASTS AND YOU EVEN DARE TO SAY SUCH FOUL THINGS?! I AM NOT TO BE DISRESPECTED AT ALL! WHETHER YOU ARE A PONY OR NOT!"

"ALSO, YOU DO NOT TOUCH MY BELOVED IN A SEXUALLY INAPPROPRIATE WAY YOU DISGUSTING SICK PERVERT!" The pony just snickered a bit and I got furious. "YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY WOMAN?! WELL, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS?!" I charged up my scepter and he immediately fell to the ground and couldn't get up. He said "Ho-how is this possible?!" I said "DON'T YOU EVER UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER YOU ARROGANT FOOL! NOTHING LIKE THIS IS EVER FUNNY!" He had a pure look of fear in his eyes and I looked over at the SWAT. "Arrest him. I don't want to EVER see his face again." The SWAT team nodded their heads and took him to the Baltimare police sitting right there. Once he was gone, I looked at the crowd and shouted "Go back home! Leave this area NOW! If I ever catch you back out here, you'll have serious consequences!" The crowd nodded very quickly and scattered as fast as they could. Once the crowd was gone, I sighed and looked at Twilight. "Well, that was an interesting turn of events. I'm exhausted and I want to go back to sleep. Otherwise, I'm going to be real angry in the morning."

Twilight stared in blank silence for a moment before nodding her head and following me back to the penthouse. We went back to bed and fell right asleep. I can't believe I had to get up in the middle of the night just to stop this bullcrap. I actually can't believe it. Another human somehow got over here. I thought I was the only human for a while, but I guess that's not true. At least I can sleep in peace now. Stupid antfia member. I honestly thought he would be a lot more dangerous, but he stood no chance against me. He couldn't stop the King of All Beasts with his presence. The only thing he had was his wits and that stood no chance against my magic. The Tree of Harmony always wins. I didn't even consider him a challenge. It was honestly laughable. But unlike those who are prideful, I took advantage first before I started to gloat. That's how you do it. You take advantage and get it done, then you can celebrate. That's how you back it up. Otherwise, it's just empty words and it makes you look like a fool. Anyways, I hope things in the morning will be better.

The next morning…

I woke up having Celestia's Sun shine in through the window and I didn't hear anything. Man, I feel refreshed. I looked over to Twilight and she was sleeping happily with a smile on her face. I stroked a piece of her mane and that got her to open up those beautiful purple orbs. I said "Sleep well last night?" Twilight yawned and then said "Excluding that terrible situation in the middle of the night, I slept pretty well." I said "That's good to hear. How about we get some breakfast? I'm starving." Twilight nodded and we headed downstairs. Yeah, it was your typical hotel breakfast, but pony style. However, I added some things to make like a hotel breakfast back home. We ate our breakfast and talked to one another. "So, yesterday was an interesting day, would you agree?" Twilight said "Yeah, it was interesting and then late last night was one heck of a mess." I said "You could say that again. That ridiculous pony is lucky I got my sleep otherwise, I would wipe him from the face of the Earth." Twilight said "Yeah good thing that didn't happen. I actually wanted to slap him, but you were too quick to catch him. How exactly were you able to find the culprit?"

I said "As soon as that noise reached my ears, the scepter knew exactly who it was and before he could run away, I caught him red handed. It was really stupid of him to laugh at that. It was no laughing matter whatsoever. He really did underestimate my power by laughing. He was basically asking for a challenge and that's what I gave him. He can't say stuff like that and get away with it. Not on my watch." Twilight nodded in agreement and we finished our breakfast. We went back up to the penthouse to pack things up and head back to Ponyville. The cart pony came back and we put our luggage on there. We headed it out to the lobby and went outside to bask in that wonderful Sun. Suddenly, I got hit and pushed back. I looked to see who dare do that and it was that mafia pony from last night. He looked mad. He yelled "You think that you can have me put in prison and that's the end of it?! Think again buddy! This time, you're gonna die." He pulled out a knife and I disappeared into my shadow form. This guy wants to fight, eh? Fine. You'll regret it though. I appeared back in my lion form and said "You can't defeat the King of all Beasts. You'll have to try harder than that in order to catch me." The pony growled and tried attacking me again. Twilight fired some magic at him to get him to stop, but he didn't react.

I kept dodging attack after attack which only made him more and more angry. He yelled "STOP RUNNING AWAY AND FACE ME YOU COWARD!" I said "Oh, yeah? I'll give you cowardly." I looked over at Twilight and nodded. She knew what to do. I charged up my scepter and blasted magic at him. Twilight blasted her magic as well and it created a joint magic going up against this pony's magic. He tried fighting it, but unfortunately for him, the scepter's magic plus Twilight's was just too powerful for him and it disintegrated out of existence. He didn't die, he just got put back in prison, but with heavier security. I said to Twilight "Let's get the heck out of this city before anything else crazy happens." Twilight nodded and we rushed to the station to get on the train and head back to Ponyville. We got back on the train and it started moving quickly. I guess the train company must have heard the riot happen last night and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. I don't blame them because that was pretty hectic and was pretty dangerous if you didn't have my kind of power.

The train was moving along and I saw the green road sign that said "Thanks for visiting Baltimare: Come again soon!" Oh no. I'm not coming back here any time soon. I'm not saying I won't come back ever again, just not any time soon, that's all. I said "Whew! We finally got out of there. It seems like we can never go somewhere without something crazy happening." Twilight said "You can say that again." I said "But you know, we were still able to spend time with one another even though things got quite crazy. It's so ridiculous that this stupid pony thought it would be a good idea to try and challenge the King of All Beasts." Twilight said "I know right? What was this pony thinking?" I said "I don't know, but he should know better than to try and fight me. Sure, it got tense there at the end, but he was once again no match for me." Twilight said "Yeah. I'm glad nothing happened to you. I don't know what I would have done if something had happened." I said "I escaped near death. You would probably just blast him into a one way trip to oblivion." Twilight said "That sounds like something I would do. It would serve him right for what he did." I said "I agree. Hopefully, he should be heavily guarded now and not be able to escape." Twilight said "I hope so too." and rested her head on my chest.

Even though this trip only lasted a day, it really was interesting. The first day was great, but we got ourselves in a mess that we had to take care of in the middle of the night and this morning after having breakfast, I had a near death experience which wasn't fun whatsoever. Sure, he wasn't a threat to me, but I still take this stuff pretty seriously and everyone else should as well. There's nothing to laugh about here. You would have to be pretty dark in order to think that was funny. If you do, screw you. Anyways, despite this crazy stuff, I was able to have a nice time with my beloved and it brought us closer together. Sure, there were some crazy things that happened in the background, but that didn't stop us from having a good time with one another. It takes a lot more than that in order to achieve something like that. Our relationship is something that can never be broken. We've been through tough situations before, but we always came out stronger. NOTHING can ever put our relationship to an end.

AN: What a chapter! I honestly didn't expect for this to be this long, but it works for me. I wanted to use Baltimare because the show never really showed what it looked like, so I depicted it just like Baltimore, but pony style. Also, I used recent events in this chapter. Obviously, if you live in the United States, you know what happened in D.C. on Wednesday. That was a hot mess. I'm not going to get into it because one, I hate politics, and two, there's no place for that here. You can discuss it amongst yourselves in the reviews section, but I'm not going to talk about it. So, anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter.

Next Chapter: The Washouts! When Rainbow eavesdrops on Scootaloo's fan meeting, she learns about a new group called the Washouts that Scootaloo loves now. Rainbow goes to investigate, and it turns out the members are former Wonderbolts that have been kicked out of the academy. Also, she learns that the captain is none other than Lightning Dust, renewing the rivalry between the two. Scootaloo likes Lightning, but doesn't know the truth. Will she be able to make friends, or will she find out the truth when it's too late?

Until then, my fellow readers
