Twilight's gonna see something Fantastic
Spider-man swung through the skies of New York City, hoping to to find Rumble, for Twilight's sake.
"Where could this kid be? I hope someone bad hasn't found him, I'd hate to see him in the clutches of someone like Electro, or Doc Ock, or even *shudder* Norman Osborn"
As he swung through the skies, he noticed Black Cat on a rooftop.
Spider-man groaned, "What's Felicia up to?"
He swung over to her, "Hold it Felicia"
Black Cat grinned, "Hey Peter, how's it going?"
Spider-man simply glared, "What are you up to at this hour? More burglaries?"
Black Cat pouted a bit, "What? No 'Hello Felicia'? I thought we had something" she had asked in a flirty tone before approaching him and putting her hand on his chest, "Surely you know how to treat a friend who cares for you?"
Spider-man blushed under his mask but shook it off, "Cut the crap Felicia, just tell me what you're doing"
Black Cat sighed, "Well truth be told I was looking for you"
This peaked Spider-man's curiosity a bit, "Why me?"
"Well I recently found this adorable little Pegasus who claims to know you, says his name is Rumble"
Spider-man's eyes widened, "You found Rumble? Where is he? He's not hurt is he?"
Black Cat shook her head, "He's fine, he's at my place, I'm gonna watch over him for now"
"Huh? Why would you want to do that? What do you have to gain? Wait you're not gonna sell him are you!?"
Black Cat chuckled, "No, I just want him around for a bit, like most girls I've always wanted a pet pony"
Spider-man could tell she wasn't being totally serious but humored it a litt "Well he's not for being a pet, he needs to come with me so his friend won't have to worry, I promised her that I would bring Rumble back"
"We'll tell his friend that she won't have to worry cause she can see him tomorrow night, besides he's probably really tired right now, best not to move him"
Spider-man sighed, "Fine, what time do you want to meet tomorrow?" Spider-man asked.
"8pm sounds good, we can meet on this rooftop, and while the two ponies get reacquainted, you and I could do a little...catching up", she gave a flirty wink, much to Spider-man's discomfort.
"Fine, but treat him well, this girl can be pretty scary when she's pissed"
"Sounds like a challenge", she gave an evil grin.
Spider-man rolled his eyes and swung away, leaving Black Cat with a devilish grin.
"Maybe I can have a little fun tonight before-"
"And if any houses get robbed I'm gonna know it's you!" Spider-man shouted, much to her annoyance, "You're no fun sometimes".
Spider-man made his way back to his apartment and changed back into Peter Parker, he was about to sleep when he heard Twilight.
"Peter, are you there?"
Peter looked to see Twilight come out the bed room.
"Twilight? What are you doing up?"
"I couldn't sleep, I was worried about Rumble, then I saw you left so I got worried about you, where were you?"
Peter rubbed his head, "I couldn't sleep well either, I was worried about that colt too, so I went to look for him"
"I had a feeling you would, you're kind to do so, I take it you had no luck"
"Actually, while I didn't find him, I know where he is"
Twilight's eyes beamed, "Really? Where!?"
"Someone I know has him, she is called Black Cat, don't worry she's not evil, she's not good, but she's not Shocker evil"
Twilight raised her eyebrow, "Then what type of evil is she?"
"She's...a cat burglar, she only steals, she never hurts"
Twilight's eyes widened, "Rumble is staying with a criminal!? We gotta go get him, where is this lady!"
"Easy Twilight, I know you're worried, but she assured me she would take care of him and we can see them tomorrow at 8pm, I know I said she's a crook but please trust me when I say she won't hurt him"
Peter looked into Twilight's eyes when he said that, he had to admit she had nice eyes but not the point, while Twilight had doubts she had to trust his judgment, he seemed like a nice boy, plus she couldn't mistrust his eyes.
"Ok Peter, I trust you"
She decided to go to bed, Peter flopped on his couch, ready to just call it a night.
The next morning Peter woke up and smelled something good, he checked in the kitchen and saw that Twilight had made him breakfast, Toast with Fried Eggs and some waffles.
She smiled to him, "Good morning Peter"
Peter rubbed his eyes, "Morning Twilight, did you make this for me?"
Twilight nodded, "I figured you could use a good breakfast, good thing you seem to eat stuff I eat, so I was able to make it, I hope you like sunny side up, I've always had a personal preference for the sun...no offense to the moon of course"
Peter raised his eyebrow, then remembered her mentioning the princesses raising the sun and moon, and being the apprentice to the sun princess, hence the sunny side up comments.
"It looks great, but you didn't have to go through this trouble, you're my guest, I don't want you getting up early just to make me breakfast, you could sleep as late as you want"
Twilight shook her head, "It's no big deal, I'm always an early bird, I saw you were still asleep so I figured I'd surprise you with breakfast, you are housing me, so it's the least I can do"
Peter sat down, "You're really nice, though it's also a bit weird since you're a princess, you must be used to ponies waiting on you"
"Oh no, no, no, nopony waits on me, well Spike waits on me but he's always been my assistant, and he enjoys it so it's not a hassle for him, but I don't like being treated differently just because I'm a princess, it's kinda weird for me"
Peter chuckled, "You're modest, I like that in a girl, you've got great power, great responsibility, but you seem really down to Earth...or Equestria for you"
Twilight nodded, "Well eat up, you need proper nutrition"
Peter nodded and started eating.
"So when do we go to see Mr. Reed Richards?"
"Later on, I gotta go to work first, it's a pretty short day so I should be home around 3pm, or 4 if my boss gets really demanding, we can hopefully be at The Baxter Building by 5pm or 5:30, and meet with Black Cat at 8pm to get Rumble"
Twilight nodded, "Ok Peter, I could just wait here"
"If you get bored you can watch TV or read a book or play a-"
"Book? What books do you have!?" Twilight eagerly asked.
Peter backed off, "Whoa, you were excited"
"Well I was a librarian before I became a princess, I love to read, I've read many books since I was a filly"
"That's good, most kids these days just play video games, you decided to enchance your intelligence, if only more kids had your love of reading, then the world would probably be a smarter place"
Twilight nodded, "Yeah, it would, both our worlds...so what books do you have?"
"Well, I have educational books and regular novels, if you want I can even stop by the New York Public Library and get you some more books, shouldn't be too hard getting a good book there, it's the biggest library in our world, well at least in this country, or this state, point being it's huge"
"Wow...I wish I could go there, I bet I could spend forever there"
"Well I'll grab something later, in the meantime go to my bookshelf and knock yourself out, I'll be back later"
"Ok, bye Peter"
Peter left the apartment while Twilight checked on the books.
"Wow, he's got some interesting books, I will say it's good to have a friend to share my intellect, not that I don't value the girls, and Rainbow Dash at least likes Daring Do, but Peter seems more varied", she grabbed a book that looked like a history book, "Oh, American history, this country is called 'America', maybe I can learn a little more about it", she also grabbed an Astronomy book, "The Astronomy here may be different than my world, he did say the sun rises and sets on it's own", she also grabbed a novel, "And for a little entertainment"
She sat down ready to read, "So nice of him to let me read his books, amazing I've barely known him a day and he's been so nice, he seems like a sweet boy, though he also appears to be a bit awkward, well so was I, but he's also got a good sense of justice, even to the point where he goes out at night to find a colt he barely knows, well he is a super hero, it's in his nature to be helpful I guess"
She simply kicked back and read the book, meanwhile Peter is giving his Spider-man pictures to his boss, J. Jonah Jameson.
"Here's the pictures sir, I got good shots of his battle against Shocker"
Jameson grabbed them, "I like them, here's the headlines, Spider-man & Shocker destroy part of a city!"
Peter sighed, no matter what he did as Spider-man he'll still be tainted by The Daily Bugle, though most people never believe the papers it's still really annoying.
As he handed the pictures he realized one of them had a brief glimpse of Twilight, he attempted to take the picture back but Jameson grabbed it.
"What's thing purple thing? Parker did you happen to get better pictures!?"
Peter looked nervous, "Uh, I didn't even notice it, probably just some toy or something"
Jameson looked closely, "Doesn't look like one, looks pretty real, but then again, maybe it is nothing, who heard of a Unicorn with Wings? Unicorns don't even exist!"
Peter chuckled nervously, "Right...so anything else you need?"
"Well today's a bit slow, I won't need you anymore right now, you may leave early, but if I have something I'll call you", Jameson said.
Peter sighed in relief, he would much rather be back with Twilight due to his concern for her.
Jameson wrote a check, "Here's the money for the pictures"
Peter looked, not a lot but it's still enough, though he probably would need more soon, he has an Alicorn Princess to support, and soon a Pegasus Colt.
Peter decided to head home, though not before stopping at the Library to pick out some books for Twilight to read, he got back home, "Twilight, I'm home early!"
No answer.
"Twilight, it's me Peter, I'm home"
Still no answer, Peter got a little paranoid, did she leave? Did someone discover her? He went dramatically into the apartment and shouted, "Twilight!?"
He saw her sitting on a chair reading, then she noticed him.
"Oh, Peter, wow you're a little early, lucky you I guess"
Peter sighed in relief, "Twilight why didn't you answer? I got so worried, I thought you weren't here!"
Twilight put the book down and noticed the very worried expression on his face, then felt a bit guilty, "I'm sorry Peter, I was really into the book, I guess I didn't hear you"
Peter saw her sorrow so he put on a assuring smile, "It's fine, maybe I'm just a little paranoid"
Twilight nodded, "I'm glad you care though, kinda surprises me you care so much for a creature you barely know"
"I value all types of life, especially intelligent life, as far as I'm concerned, you're just a girl that needs my help, and I'm here to do so"
Twilight smiled at that, "You make a great friend Peter"
"Friend? Do you consider me a friend?"
"Well...if you'd like, you don't have to"
Peter waved his hands, "No, no, no, I like the idea, I just feel flattered that a princess of friendship wants me to be her friend, I figured it's a sacred thing"
Twilight rolled her eyes, "I'm just another pony, not some mythical Goddess, you seem nice so I'd like to have you as a friend"
Peter nodded, "Well so would I, oh by the way, I picked up some more books for you", Peter said and showed her the books, most of them regular stories.
"Oh wow! You're the best Peter!" Twilight looked at the books, "Wow, this one has magical wizards, wow that boy has quite a scar on his head, oh this one is more medieval based, humans, elves & Dwarves, this one...what do they play games based on food? Oh and this one...has my name, and it's about...vampires? That sparkle?"
Peter chuckled, "I figured you'd get a kick out of that one, it's too girly for me but maybe you can appreciate it"
Twilight nodded, "Thanks Peter, I can't wait to read these...wait when do we go to see Mr. Reed Richards?"
Peter checked the time, "Soon, let me just sit down a moment, maybe get something to eat, if you don't mind"
Twilight shook her head, "Not at all, you need your energy after all, I could make more food for you"
"I don't want you to burden yourself"
"It's no burden, you've been really kind to me, I feel the need to do something nice for you"
Peter nodded, "Ok, nothing too grand though"
Twilight nodded and went to the kitchen to make the food.
Later that day Spider-man & Twilight had made their way to The Baxter Building, they made sure to stay high enough and hope no one noticed Twilight.
"This city is so big", Twilight said.
"Sure is, one of the biggest cities in this world", Spider-man said.
As they moved, Spider-man pointed to the New York Public Library, "There's the library I mentioned"
Twilight gawked at the size, "Wow! It's so huge! I wouldn't mind getting lost in there!"
"One day maybe, lets hurry up now"
They kept going until they found the Baxter Building, "There it is", Spider-man said.
Twilight observed, "The one with the giant 4 on it?"
Spider-man nodded, "Yeah, the symbol of The Fantastic Four"
Twilight then thought of something, "Have you ever been affiliated with a Super Hero Group?"
Spider-man nodded, "A few, I prefer to work alone for now though, until I feel I'm ready to join my favorite Superhero Group, The Avengers"
"Nice to have goals, I'd like to hear more about that group"
"One day you'll probably see them, lets head inside"
They landed on the roof of the building, "Going through the front's too risky, we'll go through the roof"
They entered through the door and appeared at the penthouse, Spider-man unmasked and knocked.
The door was opened by Johnny Storm, "Hey Pete, what's up?"
"Hey Johnny, I have a visitor", Peter said and gestured to Twilight.
"Hello, you must be Johnny Storm, Peter's told me about you, my name is Twilight Sparkle"
Johnny stared for a moment, he shouldn't be surprised she's real, but it's still weird nonetheless, "Hi...nice to meet you Twilight...wait here", Johnny went inside.
"Wow, he's almost never speechless", Peter said.
"Where did he go though?" Twilight asked.
"Yo Reed! There's a pony at the door!" Johnny shouted.
Peter face palmed, "Seriously Johnny?"
Then a woman approached the door, "Wow, my brother wasn't kidding, there is a pony"
"Hi Sue, this is Twlight", Peter said.
Twilight waved, "I take it you're Johnny's sister? The Invisible Woman?"
Susan nodded, "Yes, I take it Peter's told you about us, why don't you both come in?"
The two went inside, "Reed, we have guests!"
Twilight looked around, it seemed pretty fancy and a little sciencey.
"Quite a place to live", Twilight said.
As she looked around she caught her first glance of The Thing, Ben Grim.
"Is that the rock man?" Twilight asked.
Peter nodded, "Yeah, hey Ben, come meet a friend of mine!"
Ben approached them, "Wow, a pony, never thought I'd see that"
Twilight waved, "Hello, I'm Twilight"
"Well at least she's friendly, then again it's a winged unicorn, they're expected to be friendly"
"Um, the term is an alicorn Ben", Peter said.
"Alicorn?"
Twilight nodded, "That's right"
Reed made his way to Twilight and Peter, "So is this the pony?"
"Yeah, she says her name is Twilight", Ben said.
Twilight turned to Reed, "Twilight Sparkle, and you are Mr. Reed Richards?"
Reed nodded, "Yes I am, you may simply call me Reed, I must say I've never seen a creature like you, except only in fairy tales"
"Well I am not of this world, I have been banished here by an evil King, I am in need of a way back, Peter says you know about Dimensional Travel, I was hoping you could help me"
Reed nodded, "I do experiment with Dimensions and other worlds, I believe I can help you, though it may take some time, tell me about your world though, what is it called? Are there other winged unicorns-"
"Alicorns" both Peter and Twilight said.
"...Alicorns, are there more like you?"
"I am one of four, the place is called Equestria, you'll see Unicorn Ponies, Pegasus Ponies & Earth Ponies"
"I see, and what does it look like?"
"well, there are villages and cities, like this world, grass everywhere, cities in the sky made of clouds, it's just a magical place"
"Well I think I can probably find it, like I said it could take a while, so you may be stuck here quite a bit", Reed said.
Twilight's ears drooped, "Oh, well at least I know I can get home, the sooner the better", Twilight said.
Peter approached her, "And you're still more than welcome to stay with me until you get home"
Twilight nodded, "Thanks Peter, I was hoping not to be too much of a burden but-"
"It's nothing, I don't mind watching over you, it's nice to have company"
Twilight nodded, "I appreciate all of your help, looks like you all follow the true meaning of the word 'hero'", Twilight said.
"Don't get all sappy on us", Johnny said.
Twilight turned to him, "Wow, you ARE like my friend Rainbow Dash"
"I take it that your friend Rainbow Dash is really freaken awesome?" Johnny did a cocky smile.
Twilight rolled her eyes, "Well if she were here, she'd definatley agree with that statement"
"Sounds like a cool pony, so is she an Ali whatever to or..."
"Alicorn...and no, she's a Pegasus, she's one of the fastest flyers in our world, besides a group called The Wonderbolts"
"Wonderbolts, sounds cool, I'm quite a fast flyer myself, I gotta challenge Rainbow Dash and these Wonderbolts one day"
"Yeah I'm sure Rainbow Dash would like that, she loves a good challenge, I just hope wherever she is she's fine"
Peter then had an idea, "Hey Reed if you find her world, you think you can find her friends too? Like their worlds?"
Reed though, "It's possible but for now I'm gonna focus on finding hers"
"That's fine, if I can get back to my world I can trace King Sombra's magic to find out where he banished my friends"
Reed sighed, "Magic...always seems to cause problems"
Twilight looked annoyed, "Excuse me?"
"I'm just saying, Magic is rarely used for good, it's always some evil sorcerer"
Twilight got even more annoyed, "Hey, as someone who's studied magic since my days as a foal I take offense to that!"
"I didn't mean to offend you but it just seems like those who know magic use it to harm others"
Twilight growled but Peter stepped in, "Reed, maybe you should stop", he spoke in hushed tone, "She's got a bad temper"
"I heard that!"
Peter jumped and shrieked, then hid behind Susan.
Ben stepped forward, "Relax kid, Stretch is just a little outspoken at times, wouldn't be the first time his mouth got us in hot water"
"Hey!" Reed said.
Peter approached Twilight somewhat cautiously, "He's gonna help Twilight, best not to do something to taint that", he turned to Reed, "And seriously Reed, have you forgotten about Dr. Strange?"
"Well technically-", Susan interrupted him, "Just stop Reed, and do what you need to do"
Reed nodded, "Ok then, my apologies Miss Sparkle, now I'm gonna get to work on this, I'll see you another time"
Twilight nodded, "Thank you, come on Peter, we still have another appointment to get to"
Peter put his mask back on, "See you later everyone"
Both Twilight & Spider-man left the Baxter Building, leaving Reed a little surprised.
"Can't believe I just spoke to a pony, that's probably the weirdest thing"
Johnny approached Reed, "Uh Reed...Skrulls, Impossible Man, Galactus"
Reed nodded, "Yeah you're right, well time to get to work"
As Spider-man and Twilight traveled, Twilight asked Spider-man something.
"Do I really have a bad temper?"
Spider-man looked at Twilight, "Um, can I be honest?"
Twilight nodded.
"Well, you did seem pretty upset yesterday when Shocker called you 'Girly', and you were gonna explode at Reed so..."
"Maybe I do have something of a bad temper sometimes, my friend Spike says I'm easily irritated"
Spider-man nervously chuckled, "If you're easily irritated, then I'm not the guy to be around, ask anyone and they'll tell you how annoying I can be"
Twilight chuckled as well, "Well even if I do get mad, please know it's not anything personal, just how things are with me"
"I can live with that, if I'm annoying don't be shy to tell me, lots of people do"
"Noted"
They made their way back home, later that night, Spider-man and Twilight waited at the rooftop where Black Cat said she'll be.
"It's 5 minutes past 8:00, where is this girl?" Twilight asked.
"She'll be here", Spider-man said.
"She isn't very punctual", Twilight complained.
"If she doesn't show, I'll go find her, I will get this colt back for you", Spider-man said.
Eventually Black Cat arrived with a trench coat, "You're here"
Spider-man approached her, "There you are, what's with the coat?"
Twilight approached her, "Where's Rumble?"
Black cat turned her attention to Twilight, "This the pony? Hey where are your manners, introduce yourself to me"
"My name is Twilight Sparkle, now where's Rumble?"
Black Cat rolled her eyes, "So demanding, he's right here", she opened her coat and revealed Rumble to be hiding inside.
"Princess Twilight!" Rumble flew over to Twilight and hugged her, "I missed you!"
Twilight returned the hug, "Me too, I was so worried"
Spider-man smiled, he's happy Rumble was safe, he turned to Black Cat who took her coat off, "Thanks for bringing him here, means a lot to her"
She smiled, "I know a way you can thank me", she removed his mask and planted a kiss on him, much to his surprise.
Twilight blushed when she saw that, and felt partially jealous, when Rumble saw it, he turned to Twilight and planted a kiss on her, much to her shock.
Twilight pushed him away, "Rumble, what are you doing!?"
Rumble blushed, "Sorry, I saw them and then I figured I'd take a chance"
Twilight looked annoyed, "Rumble I like you, but not that way, don't ever do that again"
Rumble nodded, "Sorry Twilight"
Peter also broke away from his kiss, "You just set a bad example"
"But you enjoyed my kiss right?"
Peter blushed, "Not the point Felicia, anyway we'll just take this kid and head back to my place"
"Whatever", she turned to Rumble, "See you around sweetheart"
Rumble nodded, "Ok Felicia, bye"
Black Cat turned to Peter, "I'll definitely see you around handsome"
Peter turned away as Black Cat left, much to Twilight's displeasure.
"What was with that girl?"
"She's just flirty, lets get you both home"
Rumble got a good look at his face, "Wow, I get to see you without your mask"
Peter put the mask back on, "Now don't tell anyone", he said nicely.
Rumble nodded, "I won't"
"Come on Twilight", all 3 of them headed back to his place, though instead of going through the window or front lobby, Twilight had an idea.
"Huddle together everyone"
Peter and Rumble went next to her and she managed to teleport them into the apartment, much to Peter's surprise, and causing Rumble to feel a bit dizzy.
"Wow, you can teleport?" Peter asked.
"Yeah, sorry if that took you by surprise"
"No worries, I know people who can teleport, and I've teleported with them"
"That's great, well it's almost bed time, lets have some dinner and get to sleep"
Twilight went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, Peter turned to Rumble, "Looks like I have a lot to catch you up on"
Rumble nodded, "Yeah...so what's your real name? Can you tell me that?"
Peter nodded, "My real name is Peter"
"Cool"
"So...what was it like spending the night with Felicia?"
"Good, she was really nice to me, she said I'm one of the most sweetest boys she's met, besides you, I think she has a crush on you"
"It's not really a crush it's...complicated", Peter said.
"How?"
Peter waved it off, "I'll tell you when you're older"
As time went on, Peter and Rumble talked, Peter explaining Earth to Rumble, and Rumble telling Peter about his friends & family, and then after eating, everyone got ready for bed, Rumble laid next to Twilight as she pulled him into a protective hug before they went to sleep, Peter went to the couch but Twilight called him.
"I know this is gonna sound weird Peter, but this bed should fit all of us no problem, I hate that you need to sleep on that couch"
"Twilight...it's kinda weird to share a bed with you, not cause you're a pony, it's because you're a girl"
"Sleep the opposite way then, like I said, bed's pretty big, and I can't sleep knowing you're on the couch"
Peter felt weird, this is his second night with her and he's already gonna share a bed, oh well, he figured no use fighting it, he climbed into the bed, with his feet at top and head at the bottom, "Goodnight Twilight, goodnight Rumble"
"Night Peter", they both said, before Twilight shut the light and they all drifted to sleep.
Things are being set in motion, soon some Earthly fun begins with Peter & Twilight.
