It would be 5-6 months ever since Keldeo and Twilights confession to each other, they would keep it a secret without any pony or Pokemon knowing. Spike also kept his lips zipped until the time would come. Keldeo would be in front of the rift seeing Twilight on the other side of space-time. Twilight would wave to Keldeo while she was on the other side then Keldeo would go through the rift. "Hey Twilight! Hey, who's this?" Keldeo asked about the white stallion unicorn. "This is my brother Shining Armor! Shining, this is Keldeo." Twilight introduced. "Hello there." Said Keldeo. "Hey! So, you must be Keldeo." Said Shining Armor. "Mhm." Keldeo replied. "Hello, I'm Princess Cadence. Twilight told us about you." Said Cadence as she introduced herself. "And this is our daughter Flurry Heart." Said Cadence introducing Flurry to Keldeo then Flurry would babble. "Awww, how cute! And hello to you too, Princess Cadence." Said Keldeo. "Twilight invited us to meet you. We took the train to the Crystal Empire to Equestria." Cadence explained. "Crystal Empire?" Keldeo questioned. "Oh, right... you don't know about it. It's a Crystal castle with Crystal houses and Crystal ponies live in it. But us we live in the castle." Cadence explained. "And under the castle... there is a Crystal Heart. But it can't be touched." Cadence continued. "Could it hold some incredible untouchable power?" Keldeo questioned. "We can only hold it with magic." Cadence answered. "And... wanna know a story?" Cadence asked. "Sure." Keldeo answered. "Years ago... an evil unicorn named King Sombra once took over the Crystal empire, putting on helmets to make the Crystal ponies his slaves. Then when Celestia and Luna defeated him... he shattered." Cadence explained the story. "Then again, he came back but he was planning to eat the Crystal heart until I caught it. After I returned it under the castle... us, Twilight, her friends and Spike transformed into Crystal ponies." Cadence continued explaining. "And that the story of our Crystal Empire, if you'd like... you can visit our castle. And see the Crystal Heart." Cadence Offered. "Whoa... interesting. What a nice history." Keldeo commented. "Yeah." Cadence agreed. "This King Sombra guy sounds awfully mean." Keldeo said about Sombra. "And evil, plus... he has a curved horn like yours." Twilight added. "He does? Whoa, ironically interesting." Said Keldeo. "He wears an armor on his head, neck and shoes. And he has a king cape but it's up to his tail." Twilight explained Sombra appearance. "Oooh." Said Keldeo. "He even has fangs." Twilight kept going. "That's scary." Keldeo commented. "Last but not least his eyes from his eye colour and pupil... are green." Twilight finished. "Whoooaaaa. Now THAT'S terrifying. I don't think I EVER wanna see that Sombra." Keldeo reacted. "And neither would Flurry Heart. After we caught him holding her. But she's still ok." Said Cadence. "Well... holding her by using magic." Cadence added. "But now the Crystal Empire is safe as the Crystal Heart." Cadence said in relief. "Mhm. So, since I'm back in Equestria...what else can I do?" Keldeo asked. "How about you can come with us to visit the Crystal Empire?" Cadence offered. "Sounds like a good idea." Keldeo agreed as they all got to the PonyVille train station. "The train will stop at the Crystal Empire train station. So let's go." Said Cadence as they got inside the train. The train station would leave Ponyville, then 10 minutes later they stop at the Crystal Empire train station. "We're here!" Said Twilight. They would get out of the train and through the Crystal houses. "You see? The Crystal ponies live in the Crystal houses." Cadence pointed out. "Whoa..." Said Keldeo in amazement. "And we made it... the Crystal Empire." Said Cadence. "Come see the Crystal Heart." Cadence offered as they would walk up to the Crystal Heart. "What do you think?" Cadence asked. "Ooooh! Shiny and magical!" Keldeo commented in amazement. "Now let's go up the Crystal Empire so we can give you a tour." Cadence suggested as they go up the Crystal Empire. "Here we are. The inside of the Crystal Empire. "Shiny.... And sparkly!" Keldeo commented. "I know. And we also have a balcony. Said Cadence as they went to the balcony. "You can see the view!" Said Cadence. "It's so high up... those crystals are amazing!" Keldeo replied in amazement. "I am the Crystal princess, and wanna know something when I was Twilights foal sitter?" Cadence asked. "Sure!" Keldeo answered. "Whenever a couple has a conflict in between, I use my power to help them get along as a couple again." Cadence explained. "Aww, nice." Said Keldeo. "Me and Twilight also did this when we were young and still do it. Ready, Twilight?" Cadence asked. "Ready!" Twilight replied. "Sunshine, sunshine ladybugs awake! Clap your hooves and do a little shake!" Said Cadence and Twilight doing it together. "We've done it since we were close as sisters." Said Cadence. "Childish... but cool." Keldeo commented. "We do it together when we see each other again." Said Cadence. "Yeah, it's our foalhood thing." Twilight added. "You're this close? Well, you two sure are the bestest of friends." Said Keldeo. "We'll we're sisters in law since I married her brother then we had Flurry Heart." Said Cadence. "Yep, I'm an aunt." Said Twilight. "Flurry's magic use to be uncontrollable but she gotten the hang of it." Cadence explained about Flurry Hearts magic as Flurry would cuddle Keldeo. "Looks like she likes you." Said Twilight. "Yeah, yes she does." Keldeo agreed. "Twily..." Said Shining Armor. "Yeah..?" Twilight answered. "Who is Keldeo to you?" Shining Armor questioned. "Uhh..." Twilight said nervously as she blushed. "W-why do you ask that..?" Twilight asked. "Wellllll..." Shining Armor wondered. "Hm..?" Twilight hummed. "I'm just curious?" Shining Answered as Twilight would be still for 3 seconds. "A crush..." Said Twilight whispering in Shining Armors ear, then he would gasp. "Cadence..." Said Shining Armor. "Yes..?" Cadence replied. "Twilight just told me something." Said Shining Armor. "What..?" Cadence asked. "I think it's best to keep it secret-." Keldeo paused. "You're right..." Twilight agreed. "Uhhh Shining..?" Twilight called out to Shining Armor. "Yes?" Shining answered. "YOU HAVE A-." Cadence was about to ask. "NO!" Twilight cut her off then Keldeo would mumble and blush. "Ok... maybe I shouldn't have told Shining..? But don't tell ANYpony! It's a secret to me and Keldeo." Twilight told them and blushed. "Please, Cadence and Shining Armor..." Keldeo politely begged. "You got it... I have your and Keldeos trusts so... I won't tell." Cadence understood. "Alright." Keldeo replied. "If Flurry is wondering what's going on better to be out of it since this is not for baby foals to know..." Cadence suggested. "Yeah... but thanks..." Twilight thanked in relief. "Yeah..." Keldeo agreed as he started to look down. "Hey... you ok..?" Twilight asked Keldeo. "Yeah... I'm just nervous. I think I wanna talk with Cadence." Keldeo suggested. "Ok, you can talk with her." Twilight offered Keldeo. "Come, Keldeo. You can talk to me." Cadence allowed Keldeo as they went somewhere else privately to talk. "Wanna have some brother and sister time together, my LSBFF?" Shining Armor asked. "Sure!" Twilight agreed. "Cya, Twily." Said Keldeo. "Cya." Twilight replied as she went with Shining while Keldeo and Cadence had a moment to talk about something. "Cadence... can I tell you something?" Keldeo asked. "Of course! Tell me anything." Cadence answered. "I..." Keldeo began as he blushed. "I...I-I..." Keldeo stuttered. "Say it.." Cadence told. "I think I need help. I'm nervous to ask Twilight out." Keldeo said it. "You know about love, right? I would like you to teach me more about it in your world." Keldeo suggested. "Alright... what you need to know about love is like relationships and marriage." Cadence explained. "It's a wonderful feeling." Cadence continued. "If you like someone... you have to have the confidence! Be yourself." Cadence added. "Do you get it?" Cadence asked. "I see... but how DO I ask her out and to be my... how do I say it?" Keldeo asked. "I know humans say girlfriend and boyfriend... but... this is different." Said Keldeo. "Marefriend and coltfriend. It's a pony or horse version." Cadence answered. "Well... I am a unicorn Pokemon after all. So it'd make sense." Keldeo agreed. "If you want to ask Twilight out... ask her like this: "Twilight... I was thinking of something, do you wanna go out with me?" Cadence quoted for Keldeo. "Now... what place do you wanna take her?" Cadence questioned Keldeo. "Is there any spot in Ponyville or here to date?" Keldeo asked. "Hm..." Cadence hummed while thinking. "You can go on a night date outside. Like you too can sit on a bench together?" Cadence thought. "Or go for a walk." Cadence added. "Maybe... does Twilight have a favourite place to go to?" Keldeo questioned Cadence. "Well she likes the park where the benches were when we were younger." Cadence thought of the place. "Maybe that might just work!" Keldeo agreed. "But! Maybe you both can wear something? IF you want." Cadence thought. "I've never worn something here before." Keldeo replied. "Would you want to wear one for a date?" Cadence asked. "Maybe. But for now, I think I'm gonna be like this for our first date." Keldeo suggested. "Alright! And if you want to ask Twilight... have the confidence and be yourself." Cadence reminded Keldeo. "You got this, Keldeo." Said Cadence. "Thanks, Cadence." Keldeo replied then got back to Shining Armor and Twilight. "We're back, Shining and Twilight." Said Cadence. "Mhm." Said Keldeo. "Well... I think we should be going now." Twilight suggested. "Mhm." Keldeo agreed. "Well bye then!" Said Cadence. "It's nice meeting you Shining Armor and Cadence. And yes, you too Flurry Heart." Said Keldeo then Flurry would choo. Keldeo and Twilight would head to the Crystal Empire train station, get in the train and have their ride back to Equestria for 10 minutes. "Did you like the Crystal Empire?" Twilight asked after getting out of the train. "I sure did. It was nice." Keldeo answered. "Glad you liked it, so... do you have to go back to your world or you'll stay for a little while?" Twilight asked. "I actually feel like staying, because I wanna ask you something." Said Keldeo. "Huh..? What do you wanna ask?" Twilight wondered. "Would... would you like to go out with me?" Keldeo asked Twilight out as Twilight would blush. "Sure! I would love to." Twilight accepted. "But uhh... where?" Twilight wondered. "I know where." Said Keldeo. "Hm... ok." Twilight replied.
