"You're... a ghost?" Rainbow Dash asked skeptically.
"No, that's just the easy way of explaining it." Church replied.
"So what did you do then?"
"Do you really want to know or are you just thinking out loud?"
"A little bit from column a, a little bit from column b."
"Then I'll just leave it as I solved the problem." Church said more harshly than he meant to. "Not much use going into any further detail."
"Okay then. I didn't mean to offend you or anything so..." Rainbow Dash said.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound that way." Church said slowly.
"Don't worry, Church is always angry." Tucker said. "Like when he is happy he is slightly less angry than usual. And when he is mildly annoyed he becomes this sort of mopey angry."
"Fuck you. I'm not always angry." Church grunted.
"See?" Tucker chuckled. "Mopey angry, right on cue."
Church glared at Tucker for a few seconds before Twilight walked in front of him. "Let's teleport back to Sugar Cube Corner and pick up Spike." Twilight said. "We'll walk the rest of the way back to the library and we can relax."
"Mind doing that for me too?" Church asked quickly. "I don't know if you've noticed, but my aim isn't the greatest and I would appreciate not ending up halfway through a wall." Twilight nodded and closed her eyes. Her horn glowed briefly and they reappeared in front of Sugar Cube Corner. "Thanks for getting me out of there." Church muttered. "Tucker was starting to get on my nerves."
"I'm beginning to see why you two have a strained relationship." Twilight said.
"Good to know I'm not just imagining it." Church chuckled.
Twilight knocked on the door and Pinkie opened it with a big smile. "Heya Twilight!"
"Hey Pinkie, we're here to pick up Spike then we'll be out of your hair."
"You would have to be in my hair to get out of it first silly." Pinkie giggled. "Come on in." Twilight nodded and went in to the room being followed by Church.
Church looked across the room and saw Caboose laying on the ground with a trail of crumbs around him. Church smiled loosely but quickly shook it off.
"Where is Spike?" Twilight asked.
"He was here a few seconds ago." Pinkie said with mild confusion.
Before Twilight could call his name, they saw a small purple arm shoot out from under Caboose and wave violently. Church ran up to Caboose and pulled Spike out from under Caboose. "Thank... you..." Spike gasped.
"How the hell did you get under him?" Church asked.
"Well there was one cookie left and both of us wanted it so we kind of tried to take it from each other."
"You know he is way bigger than you, right?" Church said, raising an eyebrow
"Yeah but the cookie looked so good." Spike said, rubbing his belly.
"I'll take your word for it." Church broke into a smile.
"Can we go back home now?" Spike yawned. "I'm feeling really tired."
Twilight nodded and walked up to Spike who quickly jumped on her back.
"Thanks for looking after him Pinkie."
"No problemo Twi!" Pinkie said. "I should probably get Boosey up too."
"Keep him out of trouble." Church said.
"Caboose could never cause trouble, just look at him." Pinkie said innocently.
Church looked over at Caboose who gurgled happily as more crumbs fell off of his chest.
"You're right, there is no way he could cause trouble." Church said sarcastically.
"We should get going, we need to give Spike some rest."
"But it's the middle of the day." Spike said quietly.
"Alrighty." Pinkie said. "Come on Boosey, wake up."
"But the ground is so comfy." Caboose yawned.
Once Twilight, Church and Spike made their way back to the library, Twilight brought Spike to her room where he quickly dozed off. She came back downstairs to see Church sitting at the table, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Spike must have been really tired, he fell asleep right when I put him to bed." Twilight said quietly.
"He had a lot of sugar back there so he's probably just having a sugar crash." Church said quietly as he continued rubbing his neck.
"Probably." Twilight said quietly. "Church I just want to say thank you for doing what you did."
"Don't mention it." Church grunted dismissively.
"No, I do need to mention it. I can't even begin to comprehend how much it must hurt you to have done that."
"You know, even though that I haven't known you for long, I already see you as more of a friend than anybody else I've met. I'm not going to let her kill the only person that I can actually talk to without having to explain every damn thing as slowly as I can, because that would leave me with Caboose and Tucker again and that would fucking suck."
"Well I'm glad you feel that way." Twilight said.
"So, uh, do you mind telling me what you were going to the others places for?" Church asked.
"Oh right, I nearly forgot." Twilight said. "My brother is getting married soon and I was wondering if you would want to come. It might even be a good thing to do given all that's happened in the past little while. It’ll allow us to unwind a little bit."
Church shrugged slowly. "Weddings aren't exactly my thing."
"Come on, what isn't there to love about weddings?" Twilight asked. "There's music, good friends, great food, fu-"
"Tex and I were supposed to get married." Church interrupted quietly.
"Sorry I didn't mean to bring her up." Twilight said with a frown.
"I know." Church sighed. "I just wish I knew why forgetting her isn't an option."
"Well you are the aspect of... the Alpha was it, that used to be his memory." Twilight said with a small laugh. "I can imagine it being difficult to forget things when that is who you are."
"Yeah." Church replied simply. "Who is he getting married to?"
"Kind of a silly question when you barely know anypony in this world." Twilight chuckled lightly.
"That's true." Church chuckled with her.
"Her name is Princess Mi Adore Cadenza." Twilight said.
"Have you met her before?"
"No, this is the first time I've heard of her."
"Aren't you a little mad that you never even got to meet his fiance before he decided to marry her?"
"A bit." Twilight admitted. "But it's going to be a royal wedding."
"That sort of sounds like it would be a big deal."
"It is." Twilight agreed. "It has been quite a while since there has been a royal wedding and I'm glad to be a part of it."
"I know your brother is the one getting married, but what do you mean by a part of it?" Church asked.
"Me and the other girls are going to be bridesmaids. That's what I went to go talk to them about. So are you interested in coming?"
"Sounds good. Beats sitting around all day."
"Great." Twilight said happily. "I assume the girls will ask the others as well."
Church paused and shivered violently.
"What is it Church?" Twilight asked.
"I don't know, I just have a bad feeling about it." Church said.
Last night's ep. Sorry for the delays blame the website. I also felt it would be fun to incorporate the RvB crew in the finale.
shit storm a brewin
images.intomobile.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/shit-storm.jpg
A bad feeling you say..hmmm...
Fluttershocked did an alternate wedding too. This should be fun.
This will not go well. I can feel it.
On another note, Check this sweet shit out!

Yeah I saw that a while ago when I was around chapter 10, I planned on using it as title art but I couldn't find who made it, but I like my title art slightly better now.
472189 yeah, It's still much better to have something origional.
Did you plan on that before the episode?
472194
Plan on what? The wedding? If so then yes it has been planned since chapter 40 or so.
472207 Yeah, big plans always have big results.
Still think this is the the best cross-over I've seen. Can't wait for more.
472219
I refuse to believe it is the best crossover, but nevertheless I appreciate the compliment.
472232 Better than anything I've seen so far,
The closest was Ain't no rest, but that got cancelled.
Hell, when this is wrapped up I'll probably read over the beginning again just for the Caboose and Pinkie.
Still feels right.
Oh shit bad feeling
BTW Carolina will surely be POd that the crew isnt back yet, maybe its her or Wash or at least I hope Meta
472232
It is the best crossover IMO
472254
What was aint no rest about
I agree with you
The 2nd best is My Little Broly on fanfiction
472269 It was a Borderlands fic, It was really good too.
472272
I was planning on doing a BL fic but then I saw that and was put off, but I might do it later after BL2 gets released. There are so many crossover fics that I planned on but saw that someone else was already doing them (Like a left 4 dead 2 one I had planned but it was made days after I started writing the storyboard, but I forgive Mago completely because Name's Ellis is one of my fav fics of all time and he writes it better than I would have done)
472288 There's a lot of things I was going to do until I saw how many others made. They (as you said) Did it better than how I would have done it.
But it's all in the fun of making this kind of stuff.
Hell, I don't care if most of my stuff I've tried with were utter failure's I liked them and I made them that way.
Hey Darkwing, you seem to be the go to guy for crossovers (cause all of yours are excellent). Have you happened to see one with Strange Days at Blake Holesy High?
472404
Man I forgot about that show.
But no I haven't seen one but I probably wouldn't tackle it since I haven't seen it for awhile and have forgotten what the characters are like bar one or two traits. I would love to see that get a crossover though.
472418 In that case, I've decided to take it under my wing. I haven't watched in a while either, but I have the entire series on my hard drive. Wish me luck :) (Mind if I bug you for plot ideas at some point? No one I've talked to even remembers the show D: )
472432
If I can find it on a website so I could rewatch it I would be honored to help you out now and again with some plot points.
472605 TPB has a copy of the series. Or at least it did when I got mine.
471977
I approve on SO many levels!
Why do I have a feeling this is going to play out similarly to a certain Arby and the Chief episode? A certain episode that happens to be my favorite.
472956
That one is my fav too.
"You want to do it again?'
"DAM RITE SUN!"
Oh God. This will end horribly, I know that for a fact. I have to say, you are a extremely great writer. If the entire RvB crew was doing this, I could imagine them doing a Royal Wedding episode since the real episode is so close to premiering. Kinda like how they have done videos for Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3 ODST, Halo Reach and Halo 4. Let's just hope Tucker or Caboose doesn't fuck up the wedding... Wait I just remembered, there is supposedly multiple copies of the Mane 6 in the Royal Wedding episode, does that mean multiple copies of the Blood Gulch Crew?
472975
Secret
472288
Look on the bright side, ain't no one topping your Zero Punctuation crossover!
You might want to fix this chapter on the part where she knows that her foal-sitter is the one marrying Shining Armor. (Contradicts Ch. 67)
I'm hoping you'll be able to update it sometime in the near future......
if only lopez were here... sigh
When it mentioned the wedding i thought "woh woh woh, your fucking with the timeline here!"
then when Twilight mentioned Cadence my delay on remembering stopped and was flooded with the episode and thought "Shit's ganna get real"
I was half-way done with reading this when I realized, "This is actually a good crossover with RedvsBlue. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!?"
472112You talking about the one with the guy named Paradox?
church sense?
644930 lopez is dead
anyone else hear all of the characters voices while reading, yes, no, maybe so(if you know how they sound like)?
472692 I REMEMBER THAT SHOW! i remember the plot being made by someone with their head up their ass still a nice show though.
his A.I. senses are tingling

Detail Nazi here...
TECHNICALLY the girls weren't made bridesmaids until after they got to Canterlot, they were just making the preparations.
Just helping.
Cant help but feel that Simmons cyborg-ism is something that should be mentioned...
Good fic from what ive read so far. Just curious, if Tucker and Sarge's signature weapons were incorporated along with church's... stuff, does that mean Simmons' cyborg bits are there? Will Tex be a badass robo pony? I hope that at least one of those is true. Reading more later...
NO. I'm sorry but the shitstorm has hit the fan. While i really am exited to read about the royal wedding, i don't think you should change the way it happened in the actual episode of mlp. Just my opinion.
Flutter-snipe
Ps. Great work! Hope to see more!
I don't no about messing with the mlp storyline but I'll just have to see
More ominous thunder and lightning
and stuff...
Looks like you put a wrong name in.
Its Princess Mi Amore Cadenza.
Fun Fact: Mi Amore Cadenza means "My Love Cadence" in Spanish.
