Should Twilight become Spider-man's sidekick? What would that make Rumble?
Peter woke up the next morning, he heard the sounds of cooking and he smelt something good, it was French Toast, with some bananas on the side.
"Twilight must be cooking again, she's really sweet", he got up and noticed that Rumble was still asleep.
"Wow he's cute when he's asleep"
He got up and went to the kitchen, Twilight greeted him.
"Good morning, I hope you like French Toast"
"So long as you make it, all your food is heaven to my stomach so far"
"Aw thanks, nice to have someone appreciate, when I cook for Spike he nitpicks a lot, sometimes I don't even bother and let him cook his own food", Twilight had an obvious displeasure in her face.
"Well I like your food, I'm sure once Rumble wakes up he'll like it too"
Twilight nodded, "I'm sure, well eat up, you need your strength, I bet you have some super heroics to get to"
Spider-man nodded and finished his breakfast, Rumble woke up a moment later.
"Morning Twilight, Morning Spider-man"
Peter chuckled, "Rumble you can call me Peter, well except when I'm in my Spider-man costume"
Rumble nodded, "Ok Peter, so what's for breakfast? I smell something yummy"
Twilight put the plate down, "There you go little one"
Rumble sat and tasted it, "Wow, this is yummy, Spike must be lucky to live with you"
Twilight's smile faded, "He should be, but he doesn't realize that"
As Spider-man ate he heard the phone ring, he approached it and answered, "Hello?"
"Dude! It's Johnny! Big Problem!"
Peter looked concerned, "What's wrong?"
"It's Shocker, he escaped from custody, and he's totally pissed! He's storming the streets and get this, according to people, he's looking for a pony"
Peter's heart sank, "Damn, I'll be there shortly"
"Ok, I'm gonna go hold him off", Johnny said.
"Thanks", he hung up and quickly went to this suit.
"Peter, what's wrong?" Twilight asked.
"It's Shocker, he's escaped and he's attacking the city, I gotta go stop him!"
"Oh, well want me to help in any way? I managed to help last time"
"No, according to Johnny he's looking for you, I'm not gonna put you in danger"
"But Peter..."
"No buts, you and Rumble need to stay here, I'll be back shortly", Peter went and changed into his suit, then swung away, leaving Twilight concerned.
"That man is dangerous, I hope Peter will be ok"
Rumble put on a smile, "He can do it, he's Spider-man!"
Twilight nodded but still felt concerned.
Spider-man swung to the city and looked around for Shocker, he then heard screams and explosions, he went to the location and saw Shocker shooting his gauntlet blasts at Johnny as he flew around and tossed fire at Shocker.
"Where are they Torch!" Shocker asked.
Johnny looked, "Well one's behind you!" Johnny pointed, Shocker turned to see Spider-man waiting.
"You, where's your pet pony?"
"I haven't the slightest idea what you mean", Spider-man said non-chalantly.
"Don't try to deceive me Spider-man! If you don't talk I'll make you!" Shocker blasted Spider-man but he dodged out the way and shot webs at Shocker.
Shocker moved out he way and ran in to shoulder tackle Spider-man back and blast hi with his gauntlets.
Spider-man got up and barely dodged an oncoming punch and hit Shocker with an uppercut.
Shocker stood up and rubbed his chin, "You seem really hell-bent on protecting that pony"
Spider-man groaned, "I'm not gonna bother trying to hide this, I know it won't work, but you don't need to go near her, she's just trying to get home, you're issues are with me, so stay away from her and her friend"
"She became my enemy once she thwarted my plans, I intend on destroying you both!" Shocker blasted Spider-man again, causing him to dodge.
"Yeah, good luck with that!" Spider-man shot some webs at Shocker to knock him back, then ran in for a few punches.
Shocker blocked the punches and blasted Spider-man back and attempted to blast him again. Johnny flew it to attack Shocker and help Spider-man but he was blasted back for his efforts.
"Buzz off hot-head! Less you wanna make an enemy of me too, I'm sure Doom would be thrilled if I killed a member of The Fantastic Four!"
Spider-man used the distraction to his advantage and punched Shocker to a wall, ran in and punched more before grabbing Shocker and angrily glaring at him.
"First and last warning, stay away from The Pony, otherwise I'm gonna be a pretty angry Spider!"
"Tough talk for such a noble hero", Shocker taunted before Spider-man death a knockout blow.
Johnny approached Spider-man, "Nice one bro, you can go back to Twilight now, I'll make sure he doesn't try anything funny, maybe later you can all come over for lunch, the rest of the four want to learn more about Twilight"
"Thanks Johnny, the lunch thing sounds great, um any chance I can bring another pony though?" Spider-man asked.
"Another? Wait you found the other pony or...?"
"I found him, he was with Felicia"
"Wow, lucky kid, well come by around 1pm, bring them both"
"Will do", Spider-man then swung off, back to his place.
He switched back to Peter Parker and entered his apartment, "Hey everyone, I'm home"
Twilight approached him, "Oh thank Goodness, were you able to subdue Shocker?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, Johnny's gonna make sure he heads back to jail, he also invited us to lunch at The Baxter Building in a few hours, they wanna get to know you a little better", Peter said.
"That sounds great, do you think they'll mind Rumble?" Twilight asked.
"I asked Johnny, he can come too", Peter said.
"Good, you hear that Rumble? You'll get to meet more super heroes", Twilight said.
Rumble grinned, "That sounds so awesome!"
Twilight giggled, "I figured you'd say that"
Peter chuckled as well, "I think you'll like them, they're a group called 'The Fantastic Four', there's Mr. Fantastic, he has stretchy powers, his wife Invisible Woman, her name speaks for itself, her little brother Human Torch, he has fire powers, and then there's The Thing, he's a rock man"
"Can't wait! I really like this world, so many heroes here! I mean the villains are bad but that makes it extra exciting, maybe I can train hard and one day be your sidekick, or Felicia's sidekick"
Peter's eyes went wide at the idea of Rumble being Black Cat's sidekick.
"Well..anyway just get ready, we'll leave soon", Peter said.
Come close to 1, they all made their way across the city, Peter in his Spider-man guise, making sure neither Twilight nor Rumble get spotted.
"Remember, stay close to me, when I fought Shocker earlier today, he said he was looking for you, so in case he breaks out, I don't want him finding you"
Twilight's curiosity peaked, "Looking for me?"
"Well you did thwart him, villains hate that", Spider-man said.
Twilight found that logic weird but knew he had a point, 'ok, we'll stay close, right Rumble?"
Rumble stayed close to Twilight, "Yes Twilight"
Spider-man got them closer before Twilight Spoke, "Wait, I think I can teleport us from here, get close to me boys"
The two got close to Twilight and she zapped them all to the roof of the Baxter Building.
"Wow, that makes things a lot easier", Spider-man said.
Rumble felt dizzy, "I'm not used to that"
"Oh you're get used to it Rumble, let's head in now", Twilight said.
They knocked on the door and was greeted by Johnny, "Peter, Twilight, you made it, and looks like you brought a new friend", he bent down to Rumble, "Hey little guy, I'm Johnny, what's your name?"
Rumble looked a little shy, "I'm Rumble...are you a member of The Fantastic Four?"
Johnny grinned, "So, you've heard of us, yeah I'm a member, I'm The Human Torch"
"Wow, so you shoot fire?" Rumble asked.
"Why don't we talk more inside?" Johnny said and led everyone in.
Rumble looked around, he seemed amazed by all the tech, and how fancy the place looked.
"There's so much cool stuff here!" Rumble said.
"Yeah I guess, yo Sue! Ben! Reed! Peter's here, he brought his guests!" Johnny shouted.
The rest of the Four showed up.
"Twilight Sparkle, good to see you again", Reed said.
"Same to you Dr. Richards", Twilight said.
Sue approached Rumble, "And what's your name little guy?"
"I'm Rumble Miss, nice to meet you"
"Likewise", she turned to Twilight, "Is he your little brother or..."
"Just my friend", Twilight said.
"And future coltfriend", Rumble added.
"And fut-", she stared at Rumble, "Future what!?"
Rumble gave a nervous smile, "Just taking a chance? You're really pretty and you can cook, my brother said it's a great combination in a girl"
Johnny chuckled at that, much to Twilight's annoyance.
"Besides, you're also really nice too, that's something Flitter said I should look for in a filly"
Twilight chuckled a bit, "It's best to stick to your own age for now Rumble"
Everyone chuckled, Peter then joked, "Well I think you can make a cute couple Twilight"
Twilight glared, "Like you and Felicia?"
Peter blushed while Johnny chuckled, "That's right, you said that Felicia had this kid"
"Yeah she did", Peter said.
Sue clapped once, "Ok, let's go sit down and eat, Twilight do you eat meat of any kind?" Susan asked.
Twilight shook her head, "No, I don't eat meat, unlike all of you I'm not an Omnivore"
Rumble raised his eyebrow, "A what?"
"Omnivore is a creature that eats meat and vegetables"
Rumble looked nervous, "Humans don't eat ponies do they?"
Peter shook his head, "No way, in this world ponies are very reliable animals, like dogs and cats"
"Yeah, we would never eat you", Sue said and went to the kitchen, "Don't worry though, we have food for you two", Sue said.
Twilight nodded and sat at the table with Rumble and the others.
The food had been served, everyone grabbed their helping.
"This looks good, who made this?" Twilight asked.
"My sister Susan, better than her usual work"
Susan glared, "Be quiet Johnny"
Twilight chuckled, "So Dr. Richards, how long have you been a scientist?"
"Years, I've studied countless stuff, between different planets, unknown dimensions, I always went further beyond what people expected, I never liked limitations"
"That's good, so how did you get your powers?"
"Well, me along with Johnny, Susan & Ben went into Space and-"
"Space!? How?" Twilight looked eagerly curious.
"Well we used a rocket and-"
"A rocket?"
Reed chuckled, "Your mind is so eager to learn, I like that in another, but we used a machine called a Rocket to blast into space, I wanted to do research on a radioactive cloud, but the Cloud was closer to us than we thought, and once exposed to the cloud, we each gained powers based on our personalities, like myself, my stretch ability came from my desire to learn more beyond normal limits, Susan is based on how she sometimes feels invisible because she feels no one notices her, Johnny due to his hot-headedness and Ben because he's a solid friend"
"Wow, Impressive", Twilight said.
"Hot head? No my powers come from my hot streak!" Johnny said while posing.
Reed glared, "Right, hot streak"
"So Twilight, tell us about your home", Susan said.
"I come from a place called Equestria, where Unicorns, Pegusai and Earth Ponies live together in Harmony, I am one of 4 Alicorn Princesses and I help watch the lands, I use my magic to preserve peace, harmony and friendship across the lands, we even believe in the mantra, 'Friendship is Magic', it has helped us overcome a lot of obstacles"
Johnny chuckled, "Really? You beat the odds using the magic of friendship, that sounds like something from a children's tv show"
Twilight glared at Johnny, "You like in a world that's very similar to a comic book, so I wouldn't be talking"
Peter chuckled, "You got owned bro"
Johnny mocked the chuckle, "No I didn't bro"
Peter chuckled again, "Yeah you kinda did"
Johnny mocked again, "Wanna get your ass whooped?"
Susan cleared her throat, "Come on boys, there's a young colt there, you're gonna set a bad example"
"It's ok miss, my big brother acts like this too, one of my foalsitters, Flitter, told me that boys always act like that, but she also says not to be like them, to be considerate around others, especially girls, cause then it's being impolite"
Johnny just stared at Rumble, "What are you a goody two shoes?"
Susan glared at Johnny, "Knock it off little brother!"
Johnny glared back, "Don't pull the 'Little Brother' card on me!"
"Then don't give me a reason to!" Susan shouted.
"Hey, hey, easy now, we're supposed to be enjoying ourselves and having a good time, I hate seeing siblings fight", Peter said.
"Same here, I've seen my friends argue with their sisters, luckily for me I almost never fight with my brother, at least not until his wedding, when I got mad at him for not telling me he was getting married, I found out through a wedding invite"
"Wow, that must have been awkward", Ben said.
"Yeah, then I accused his fiancé of being evil, and he got really mad at me and barred me from The Wedding"
Johnny raised his eyebrow, "So cause he didn't tell you beforehand, you called his fiancé 'evil'?"
"No, I called her evil cause she acted evil, being mean to my friends, her bridesmaids suddenly disappearing, putting a spell on my brother making his eyes go all", she started twirling her eyes, much to the amusement of Johnny, Rumble, Peter & Ben, "So that's why I called her evil"
"Well was she?" Susan asked.
"Yeah, she was an imposter, her name was Queen Chrysalis and she kidnapped my brother's real fiancé, who was my foalsitter Princess Cadance, she tried to take over with her army of changlings"
"What's a Changling?" Johnny asked.
"Little bug like creatures that shape-shift"
"Wow, those sound like the Skrulls, well without the bug thing", Susan said.
"You seem to have quite the adventures yourself kid", Ben said.
"Yeah, it's all fascinating, despite how weird this whole magic thing sounds to me", Reed said.
Twilight looked annoyed, "I assure you Dr. Richards, Magic is a real thing for us, I'm guessing it's non-existant in this world"
"No it can exist, take Dr. Strange, he knows magic", Peter said.
"And Thor's evil brother Loki, he's the God of Chaos", Johnny said.
Twilight raised her eyebrow, "Wow, you have your own Embodiment of Chaos?"
"Yeah, why do you?" Johnny asked.
"His name is Discord, he loves spreading Chaos, until me and my friends reformed him, mostly my friend Fluttershy", Twilight said.
"Wow, we all have a lot in common it seems", Johnny said.
"Not so different", Twilight said with an honest smile, getting agreement from the others.
As time went on, Twilight told more stories, such as The Elements of Harmony forming, The Crystal Empire Stuff, Lord Tirek, stuff about Trixie Lulamoon, her times with Celestia, The town of Equals and explained The Cutie Mark Concept, telling her friends' cutie marks and talking about The Crusaders.
"I like those Crusader girls, I can relate to the Apple Bloom filly, being raised by our sisters, must be a pain", Johnny said.
"Well she never complained that much, but what about being raised by your sister?" Twilight asked.
"I lost my parents when I was young, well I thought so with my father but I'll explain later, but after losing our parents, my sister took care of me, I mean we had help from other family but it was mostly my sister"
"Wow, sorry to hear...do you have any other stories?"
The Fantastic Four explained stuff about The Negative Zone, The Skrulls, Dr. Doom & Galactus.
"A Planet Eater!? That sounds really scary!" Twilight said.
"Damn right it was", Johnny said.
They then also went into detail about the father, and how he was actually jailed but came back, only to be killed later.
"That must have been heart-breaking for you", Twilight said.
"Tell me about it", Johnny lamented.
Twilight turned to Peter, "I'd like to hear some of your greatest moments"
"Sure"
Peter explained more on The Spider Bite, The Spider-Verse, The Symbiote Suit, villains that followed, Black Cat, his partnerships with Wolverine, The Daily Bugle's Slandering of his name
"Why work at a place that slanders you!?" Twilight asked.
"Not an easy choice but I don't have much of one, even the fight I had the other day got slandered"
"Your boss is a moron", Twilight said.
"But he's still my boss so..."
Peter then talked about The Infinity Gauntlet Situation with The Avengers, The Sinister Six, and The Green Goblin.
"You have quite the Rogue's gallery", Twilight said.
"Yeah, it's really something", Peter said, then looked at the time, "Wow we've been talking for hours"
Reed checked the time, "Oh my, it's that late? I need to get back to my studies", he turned to Twilight, "It's been great talking to you, I hope you enjoy your stay on Earth, but I have things to handle now"
Twilight nodded, "No problem, thank you for having us"
Rumble spoke up, "It was so cool hearing those stories, I hope there's more"
"There's a LOT more kid, maybe soon we'll tell you about Civil War", Johnny said.
"That's quite the story", Peter added.
"Can't wait to hear that one", Twilight said.
As they were leaving, Johnny approached Peter, "Did you tell her about her about how your Uncle died? Or about Gwen?"
Peter shook his head, "Not ready to tell her my two biggest mistakes, someday but not yet"
"Don't blame you, but I will say, she seems really understanding, so if you need to get that off your chest, go for it, I don't think she'll hate you or anything"
"Maybe not, well see you around" Peter said.
Twilight, Rumble and Peter left, Peter switched back into his Spider-man suit and they all left the Premises.
As they made their way home, they noticed some Chaos in the streets of New York.
"Oh what now?", Spider-man turned to Twilight and Rumble, "Stay out of sight, I'm gonna check what's happening", he swung over tot he destruction and saw Electro apparently trying to hold up a bank.
"Give me the green!" Electro shouted.
Spider-man arrived, "Hold it Sparky!"
Electro turned to Spider-man, "You...taking you down will be a nice little bonus for me!" Eletctro went for a blast which Spider-man dodged, "Wow, that's how I like it sometimes, straight to the PUNCH!" Spider-man punched at the last part, knocking Electro back.
Electro recovered and attacked Spider-man with another blast, this time hitting him and knocking him out the bank.
Spider-man got up as Electro charged at him with another attack, which Spider-man dodged and used his webbing to fling Electro to a nearby building.
Twilight and Rumble watched from afar.
"Whoa! Who's that villain!?" Rumble asked.
"Based on the electric current surrounding him, that's probably Electro, one of the guys Peter mentioned at The Baxter Building"
"He looks dangerous, and I thought Shocker was scary"
"Based on the rogue's gallery he described, I think there's worse", Twilight said.
Spider-man and Electro continued brawling through the streets, one of Electro's blasts hit the building that Twilight and Rumble were watching, from, causing them to fall.
Spider-man noticed what happened, "Oh no, not again!" he paid for the distraction when Electro blasted him to the floor and started electrocuting him.
"It's over for you Spider-man!" Electro shouted.
Twilight shook her head and noticed Spider-man's near death situation.
"Oh no, Peter!" she looked around and noticed that a fire hydrant had been damaged and water was leaking, "I can use that water to short him out!" she then blasted the hydrant, causing water to sprout.
Electro noticed the water and he caught a glimpse of Twilight.
"Huh? Is that a-" he couldn't finish as Twilight used her magic to redirect the water to Electro, causing him some pain as he fell to the floor, twitching and spazzing.
Spider-man got up quickly and grabbed Electro and punched him to a street light and wrapped him in webbing.
"Looks like there's been a power outage", Spider-man said, Twilight rolled her eyes at that.
One Spider-man heard sirens, he turned to Twilight, "Let's move, quick!"
They went to an alley to hide from sight, Spider-man turned to Twilight, "I told you to stay out of sight, suppose you got caught!? Suppose he hurt you!"
"He was killing you! I couldn't stand there, besides he blasted the building me and Rumble were staying on...Rumble!" Twilight looked around, "Oh no, where is he, did I lose him again!?"
"I'm over here Twilight!"
Twilight and Spider-man turned to the direction of the voice, Rumble was on a fire escape, in the arms of Black Cat.
"You're not a good babysitter are you Pony Girl?" Black Cat asked, drawing anger from Twilight.
"Let's not fight now, please just hand Rumble over to us"
Black Cat jumped down, but before handing Rumble over, she held him to her face, "You stay safe sweetie, and don't be shy to come over when you want to, I love having handsome young boys around"
Rumble nodded, "Ok Felicia"
She kissed his head before giving him to Spider-man, then she turned to Twilight, "Keep a close eye on him will ya? I don't wanna find out he got killed under your watch"
Twilight gritted her teeth, "Back off kitty"
Black Cat took exception to that but Spider-man stepped forward, "Come on, lets not do this now, I appreciate you being here...wait why are you here? Are you robbing houses?" Spider-man asked.
"Maybe a little", Black Cat replied, causing Spider-man to sigh angrily, "Put everything back!"
Black Cat huffed, "Fine, spoil sport"
Before Spider-man & Twilight left, Rumble turned to Felicia, "Why don't you try being a hero like Peter? Then more people will like you, like I do"
She smiled at him, "You're too sweet, bye honey", she leapt away, leaving Twilight still angered.
"Something about her rubs me the wrong way"
"Don't worry about it, let's just get home, I already got my pics for work so I just need to process them later"
"Ok, but I swear if you get slandered again..."
"It's gonna happen, let's just forget about it and move on"
Both went back to Peter's Apartment.
Later in a prison holding area, Electro is trying to explain to the authorities, "I swear, there was a pony! A purple pony!"
"Yeah, yeah, tell it to the judge Dillon!" the cop said and put him in a holding area.
"But I swear it! And the name's Electro!" he shouted but sighed, then he heard footsteps.
"Don't worry my friend, I believe you"
Electro noticed who the guy was, "Shocker?"
Twilight's made some new enemies, hopefully Spider-man can help her out, but what happens when word starts to spread?
