The Return of King Sombra

The Sleepover

Twilight Sparkle has a sleepover with her friends. Meanwhile, Sombra's got plans...

As everypony began to depart from the area, Doctor Whooves climbed back to the top of his lab and climbed in through the roof, closing it as he went inside. As the Doctor went back inside his lab, Derpy flew back down to the ground, hoovering slightly, looking back at the lab before being interrupted by Rainbow Dash tapping her on the shoulder.

"So, Derpy, saw you were making eyes at the Doctor during the presentation, what gives?" Rainbow Dash asked as she grinned.

"Wh-What!? Making eyes? I-I don't know what you're talking about!" Derpy said as she blushed furiously and shook her hooves in a defensive manner.

"(Laughs) Come on Derpy, I already know you have a crush on the Doctor. You told me remember?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"O-Oh, yeah, I forgot." Derpy said as she giggled to herself.

"Seriously though, Derpy, you've had a thing for him since Twilight first came to Ponyville. When are you gonna tell him?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"W-Well, you see-."

"Ah, there you are, Derpy. I was hoping I'd find you." Doctor Whooves said, having emerged from his lab, free of the arms.

"Oh! H-Hi Doctor!" Derpy said as she quickly spun around.

"Hello Derpy, ah, Rainbow Dash, it's good to see-."

"Sorry, love to chat but I got a sleepover to attend! See ya Doc! Good luck Derpy!" Rainbow Dash said as she quickly zipped away.

"Huh? Rainbow Dash, wait!" Derpy called, but Rainbow Dash was already gone.

"Oh, well, yes, I suppose that's important." Doctor Whooves said, confused as to why Rainbow Dash had zipped away so fast.

"Well, Derpy, I'm feeling quite famished after all that talking. Would you care to accompany me to grab a bite to eat?" Doctor Whooves asked.

"(Gasp) Would I!?" Derpy cried as she smiled widely, before calming herself and chuckling nervously. "I-I mean, I'd love to, Doc."

"Splendid. Come on, let us be off." Doctor Whooves said as he began to walk away.

"Okay, Doc." Derpy replied as she squealed to herself, before quickly flying next to the Doctor.

As Doctor Whooves and Derpy made their way towards one of the restaurants in Ponyville, Rainbow Dash smiled as she watched her friend walk off with the Doctor.

"Hope it goes well for you Derpy." Rainbow Dash said as she then flew over to her group of friends. "Alright! That was cool and all, but I'm ready for the sleepover!" Rainbow Dash said with excitement.

"Alright! The presentation is over. Now who's ready for that sleepover?" Twilight asked as she turned to her friends.

Naturally, Twilight got very positive and excited responses from her friends, aside from Spike.

"You girls can have your fun at the castle, but when we get back, I'm going to my room to read my comics or something." Spike said.

"(Giggles) You do what makes you happy, Spike." Twilight replied.

"Are you girls sure you want me to join? If you all just want it to be the six of you, I completely understand." Starlight said before Applejack cut her off.
