Chapter 6

Heavy and Twilight walked home peacefully, as they walked Spike had finally caught up to them and caught a ride on Twilight's back, he then immediately went to sleep, now that he was exhausted by the crazy day they had. Twilight didn't mind for she felt like it was heaven all over again as she rested her head on Heavy's shoulder once again, Heavy looked at her once then turned away to hide a confused look and a blush, ever since she kissed him he was now confused and once again started having strange feelings toward her once more. His train of thought was then interrupted by them coming up on the library, as they entered, Spike was placed in his bed upstairs to rest peacefully, leaving Twilight and Heavy alone together, she smiled and was thinking of what to say, then she decided to play it cool.

"Um, are you hungry?" Twilight asked Heavy as he still hid his face with his mane to cover up his blush.

"No, I'm fine." Heavy replied.

Twilight smiled and gave him a quick nuzzle on the cheek before walking to the kitchen, leaving Heavy now blushing more fiercely and barely able to keep his cool. Finally he found the courage he needed to ask her a serious question. He slowly walked to the entrance and saw Twilight eating a daffodil sandwich, while she ate peacefully Heavy slowly walked closer before finally getting her attention, by tapping her shoulder as she finished eating.

"Um Twilight, can i ask you something?" Heavy asked trying to stay calm.

Twilight then turned to Heavy as she put her dish in the sink, "sure Heavy you can ask me anything." Twilight replied.

Heavy took a deep breathe before speaking, "well I want to know, what am i to you?." he asked.

Twilight was confused by the question, "what do you mean, I don't follow?" she asked back.

"Well back at the train station, when i sent Dark Star packing, you...kind of...kissed me, so I'm just curious, what am i to you? or better yet, what have i always been to you?" he asked calmly.

Twilight began to blush as she was taken back by what he was asking of her, finally she found the courage to tell him what she always wanted to tell him, "well, I don't really know how to say it really, but you knew I liked you right?"

"Yes, that much was always obvious to me." he replied blankly.

"Well the truth is...I always really liked you, you were talented, strong and yet you remained so mysterious and so interesting to me, I just couldn't help but to be at your side and to be honest...the day you left Canterlot...was the worst day in my life, that day put such a hole in my heart, i couldn't think about making friends, i couldn't ever think about relaxing and I couldn't stop practicing magic, because i felt like all i could do... was to try and be as strong as you, but my life was going no where, that is until i came to Ponyville, my friends made me feel again, and i felt like i could love and relax again, and now since you came back, I just felt so much more happy that...I just lost it and I did something that honestly...i wanted to do ever since we started growing up with each other." she explained while putting head into Heavy's chest."I really missed you Heavy" she finished now a little sad from old memories.

Heavy was taking back from all this, he didn't really know whether to be happy, confused or freaked out, suddenly his strange feelings flared like a furnace and his blush intensified, "what are you saying?" he quietly asked.

Twilight rose her head to Heavy and was only an inch from him, she looked him in the eyes with a star struck stare and inch closer to Heavy, "what I'm saying is...I-I love you Heavy, and I always have." she quietly said.

"You do?" Heavy asked nervously.

"Yes, do you love me?" she asked.

"Well I...do feel some way about you I mean, I never really knew that kind of love and I never knew a friend like you when i was growing up, I just-"Heavy was then cut off by Twilight who put a hoof to Heavy's mouth and silencing him before slowly removing it from his lips allowing him to watch Twilight inch towards him.

As she came closer to him, Heavy was at the edge, finally he let his feelings take over and he inched towards her, he closed his eyes and Twilight did the same. Finally their lips met once more and they shared a passionate kiss with one another, finally after a solid minute of kissing, they parted slowly and looked at each other with love struck faces. Finally Heavy regains his composure and looks at her with a solemn look, "well that was...different, I never felt this way about another pony before, I don't really know what to say here Twi." he said in a confused tone.

Twilight just giggled at his sudden innocence, "I think I do, Heavy Weight...would you...like to be my colt friend?" Twilight asked nervously.

So many thoughts raced through Heavy's mind, some of them felt like screams, he was trying to find the right answer and finally he had the answer. "Yes." he breathed out.

Twilight's eyes lit up as she then nuzzled him happily, and in return he nuzzled her back and the first time in a long time, Heavy was truly happy, and he was in love now.

Meanwhile in Dark Stars cave

A griffon servant was pacing around fearfully wondering what had happen to his twisted master, he kept thinking of things that could have happen or what could happen to him if his master should return in a fowl attitude, he would hate to end up like the last minion. Suddenly there was a bright red flash, and with it Dark star appeared, badly beaten and very angry, as he coughed up blood, his servant rushed to his injured master in fear.

"Master Dark, what has happened?!" he exclaimed.

"Never mind that! just get me to the Everfree putrid pools, Hurry!" Dark roared.

"Yes sir." the griffon servant replied as he rushed to a wall and opened a magic door to a secret green glowing room. He then picked up his injured master and carried him inside the room. In the room their was nothing, but green slimy walls and craters filled with glowing green goop, the griffon cringe at the gross room and threw his master into the first pool he could see. At first Dark appeared to have sank to the bottom of the pool, but suddenly he rose out of the pool and began swimming in it, as well as ingesting some of the slime.

"Thank you, any longer and i would be dead!" Dark snapped.

"I'm sorry sir, please tell me, what happened to you?" the minion asked fearfully.

Dark only frowned as he remembered the vicious beating he took from Heavy and then he began growling, "It would appear that my old friend Heavy Weight was a lot stronger than i previously thought." he growled.

"What will you do now sir?" the griffon asked.

Dark Star smiled evilly, "well, until i heal from my injuries, all we can do is watch Heavy and stir some trouble and when i'm healed i will have to find a way to get stronger." Dark continued to growl out.

"forgive me for asking but, Do you mean...watch him now sir?" the minion asked in a confusing tone.

Dark just rolled his eyes and snarled at the servant, "no tomorrow, YES NOW! GET TO SPYING ALREADY BEFORE I KILL YOU!" Dark yelled.

"Yes sir!" the griffon yipped as he ran out of the putrid pool room, leaving Dark to his thoughts and a nice putrid pool bath." He then magically summoned a bubble with a view of Heavy and Twilight kissing, and Dark just looked and chuckled

"Aww, ain't that just cute, Heavy's in love, You got lucky this time Heavy, but next time you won't be so lucky, rest assured, I will kill you." Dark promised himself as he continued to bathe in the putrid pool.

Back in Ponyville

It was a day after the battle with Dark Star and Heavy was now sleeping soundly and happily on the couch once more. As he suddenly stirred from his slumber he heard laughter and conversations going on, he then finally awoke to find out that it was already almost noon, he yawned and rose from the couch only to see Twilight's friends talking in the center of the library, as he got off the couch they all saw him and walked over to greet him.

"Well good morning sleepy head, i thought you would never wake up."Pinkie said

"Yeah, i told you girls that he slept like a log." Spike joked.

Heavy looked around and noticed that Twilight was missing, "What are all of you doing here? where is Twilight?" Heavy asked.

They all looked at each other suspiciously and then looked back to Heavy and smiled, "Twilight went out for a bit, she asked all of us to keep you company while she was away." Spike explain while smiling strangely.

Heavy was confused, but instantly went back to his stone cold look, "okay." Heavy replied in a confused tone.

"Don't worry lover colt, she'll be back, don't get your mane in a bind." Applejack joked.

Heavy just smirked at the fact that all of Twilight's friends knew of their new found relationship, "how did you find out?" he questioned.

They all just smiled slyly and gestured to Pinkie,"Just another hunch." Pinkie said while smiling once more.

"I made breakfast for everypony, how about we eat." Spike said.

"I guess I could use some breakfast." Heavy said as he smiled at the baby dragon, earning an agreeing nod from everypony else. As Heavy went into the kitchen and out of sight, Rainbow Dash flies close to Spikes ear and whispered.

"How much longer do we have to keep his attention on us Spike?"

Spike frowned at the question, "Its only until the princesses come and Twilight can somehow send them on their way quietly." He answered.

"So Spike, I reckon that you know what the whole deal is between Heavy and princess Celestia." Applejack insinuated.

Spike bowed his head in shame, "yes, and believe me if you knew what I knew, I don't know if you girls could look at the princess the same way again." he said grimly.

"Well go ahead Spike enlighten us, we want to know what the problem is here" Rarity demanded.

Spike was defeated, he knew he couldn't deny a Rarity demand, so he gathered the ponies around and explained what he had learned earlier...

FLASH BACK

Twilight awoke in her bed in a joyful mood, as she turned to leave her bed she saw Spike sleeping soundly in his bed, she giggle and got out of bed to wake him up. Suddenly he burped out a scroll, as she levitated it in front of her, she opened it and began to read, a few minutes later she dropped the scroll as a cold chill ran down her spine and fear gripped her. The letter dropped onto Spikes face and immediately woke Spike up.

"Okay I'm awake sorry!" he exclaimed as he looked around, he then saw the letter and began to read it himself.

Dear princess Twilight Sparkle

I wish to inform you that i will be arriving along with my sister princess Luna to Ponyville. I have learned that an old student is now somewhere in Ponyville and I wish to see him, I believe you know who I am talking about. I want you to know that no harm will come to him, I merely want to see if i can persuade him to come back and live with me in Canterlot, I hope to see you too at my arrival.

Sincerely princess Celestia

Spike lowered the letter to see Twilight shaken and scared, his curiosity got the better of him as he approach Twilight and spoke gently.

"Twilight, whats wrong? its just a visit from the princess." he said.

Twilight turned to Spike with a scared look that spooked the baby dragon greatly, "Spike I need you to call our friends over and i need you and them to keep Heavy company while i deal with this visit," she said fearfully.

Spike rose an eyebrow at this, "but why? I mean, wouldn't this be a great time for Heavy to see his former teacher?" Spike asked.

"No Spike, the last thing Heavy wants to see is Celestia." Twilight said grimly.

"What! why wouldn't he want to see Celestia? every pony would love to see Celestia." Spike exclaimed.

Twilight bowed her head as she looked out the window blankly, "not Heavy, you see Spike its like this."When me and Heavy were young, we would train hard and vigorously together, some ponies would even say it was rough, but we learned so much together."But then one day, we really started playing rough, when things were getting heated, our sparring was interrupted by Shining Armor, Shining pinned Heavy down and struck him for being to rough on me, and at that moment...Heavy snapped."Heavy attacked Shining viciously, he battered and broke everything in Shining, Heavy would have killed him if...I hadn't jumped in and pulled him away from the fight."Needless to say, Celestia was very upset, but she did something to Heavy that I believe should never be done to a child." Twilight explained.

"W-What was that?" Spike asked now scared by the story.

"She turned her home into a makeshift prison for Heavy, he was only to be let out to eat and study novice spell books, he had to be supervised by guards twenty four seven, and to top it off, the only visitors he got, was Celestia and me."For two years Heavy live like a prisoner under Celestia's watchful eyes, finally he had enough and he decided to break out of the castle and run away, but he wasn't able to run away without a fight."I was young and I cared for him so much, so...I couldn't let him just run away so...we fought."I did everything I could possibly do to stop him, but he manage to beat me and escape." Twilight finished, leaving Spike in the a state of shock and sadness for Heavy.

"And the scar?" Spike asked nervously.

"Yes, he got it from me when we fought." Twilight grimly answered."So that is why I need you and the others to keep him company while I deal with the princesses, can you please do that for me Spike?" Twilight asked nervously.

Spike thought for a moment and then saluted, "You can count on me, we will keep him happy while yo deal with the princesses." he promised.

"Thank you Spike, I knew I could count on you." Twilight said as she then hugged Spike and put him on her back and went downstairs to make breakfast.

FLASH BACK OVER

"And that's why it is important that we keep him company."Spike explained.

Everypony was in shock at the princess and the things she did, they also felt sad that Heavy went through such a horrible time, they were especially sad over the scar and the fight that him and Twilight had as he left.

"I can't believe the princess would do this to a little colt." Fluttershy said as she then turned to see Heavy eating peacefully.

"Poor Heavy." Pinkie moaned as her mane and tail deflated.

"I can't believe what I have heard, this is awful indeed." Rarity commented.

Applejack just lowered her head in disbelief while Rainbow Dash just looked seriously at Heavy Weight.

"So what do you think would happen if Heavy was to see the princess again?" Rainbow asked in a quiet yet serious tone.

Spike shuttered at the thought, "a fight would definitely be a possibility and an ugly one too." Spike said with a little fear in his voice.

They all looked sadly at Heavy who ate peacefully, and finally joined him at the table. As they ate quietly, they took notice at how good his manners were at the table, he took simple bites, wiped his face when he was done and washed up.

"My my aren't you quite the well mannered stallion." Rarity complimented.

"Thank you." Heavy simply said as he finished up and made for the door.

"Wait, were you going?" Pinkie said.

"I'm going out." he answered.

"Going out where exactly?" Fluttershy said in a suspicious tone

Heavy then turned and glared at them, "Let me answer that with a question of my own, do you think I'm a fool? did you really think I couldn't hear you guys talking about Celestia's visit!?" he said as his voice got loud.

Everyponies eyes widened realizing that he caught on, then Spike tried to reason."N-No Heavy, Twilight didn't want you to worry about it, she was going to handle it herself."Spike said fearfully.

"I don't need her help with this! I think I am incline to this...little visit here! And trust me I'll give Celestia a bigger reason to leave me alone than what Twilight probably has!" he shouted as he left the building.

Everypony panicked and then ran out of the library to stop him, but as they made it outside, Heavy was already gone, they then realized Twilight's little plan was about to fail and they also realized that there was a powder keg just waiting to burst.

"We have to warn Twilight, right now!" Spike exclaimed as they all now ran off to find Twilight.

LIKE I SAID, ALL HELL IS ABOUT TO BREAK LOOSE

TRUST ME, AND GIVE REVIEWS, DON'T BE NERVOUS
