Luna's Marine

Chapter 2

Home word.

As Luna and Hartman was waiting for the plain, a female marine came up to them. She was clearly Hispanic and had a Mexican accent. “Hey Hartman, so you getting off this hell-hole... Lucky.” She looks at Luna and sees that she doesn't have any shoes or socks on, “Hey what’s your name girl?” Luna looks at the woman for moment.

“My name is Kate I don’t know my last name thought.” Luna is acting like she’s really sad.

“Don’t sweat it girl. I’m Lance Corporal Jane Chavaz. I bet you're wondering how a beautiful woman like me is friend with this ugly guy.”

“I’m not that bad looking, Remember when we were stationed over in Japan. I got more girls than you got guys.” Hartman gave her a smile that said I won.

“Yeah but you didn’t do anything with them.” Chavaz shot back.

“I told you I’m waiting for the right girl.” Hartman shot back glaring at Chavez.

“Well don’t wait too long anyway, Kate where's your shoes girl?” Chavaz pointed at Luna feet.

“I don’t know.” Luna shrugged.

“How long until the plain get here?”

“In 15 minutes why?” Hartman said.

Chavaz sighed, “Well that’s not enough time to go back to the barracks so...” She put her foot by Luna’s. “Prefect” she took off her boots and socks. “Put theses on girl.” Luna looks at them for a while. “Don’t tell you forgot who to put boots on to.” Chavaz bent down and put her boots and socks on Luna. “You’re lucky that you’re going with Hartman, any other guy would try something.” She just finished tying the last boot when the plane arrived. “Well you’re all set. See you later Hartman, Kate.” She saluted and walked back to the barracks.

Hartman and Luna got up and walked on the plane. There was only about 10 other soldiers on and they were a separated by cargo. On the plain Hartman explained basic plain information.

The plain stopped over in Germany and they were in U.S. airspace in minutes. Hartman pointed out the window. “Princess, Check out one of the most popular U.S. landmarks.” She looked out the window to see the statue of liberty. Her eye went wide. She has never seen such a tall statue before. Hartman explained the history of lady liberty, to when it was first built to when the immigrants arrived and that it’s a beacon of hope.

“Wow that statute means that much to humans”

“Yeah, it’s one of the most popular tourist spots in the country.” Luna looked back at lady liberty and thought ‘wow in Equestria we have statues, but nothing like this.’ They looked back into each other’s eyes and for a minute Hartman thought about kissing Luna, but he didn’t.

The copilot came into the cargo bay. “We’ll be at Wright-Patt in about 10 minutes so I would get ready if I were-” The pilot stopped talking when she saw their faces about a half inch apart. “Am I interrupting something?” Hartman got up and walked over to the pilot.

“No, we were just checking for blood shot eyes!” Hartman said sarcastically. “Now, get back into the cockpit flyboy.” Night pushed the pilot into the cockpit and when back to Luna, “well that killed my mood.” He flopped on the canvas seat next to Luna.

They flew over DC and about ten minutes later they were getting of the plane. They passed through all the check points and they were out the door. As they were walking to Hartman’s car Luna kept looking at him. “Hartman were you going to kiss me?” He stopped dead in his tracks. He stared and blushed at Luna.

He stared at her and started to rub his head, “well Princess, uh… Oh look there’s my truck!” He went up to it and opened the door for Luna. “Well princess get in there’s something I’ve been craving ever since I left Afghanistan.” He helped her in the truck and he quickly got in. Luna stared at him.

“You’re avoiding my question. Now, were you going to kiss me?” Her stair was almost as intense as Fluttershy’s. Her stair softened she got closer to him and spoke in a lusty voice, “because if you still want to I’ll not fight it.” Hartman blushed.

“Well princess-“

“Please call me Luna.” She still spoke in the same lusty voice.

“Ok Luna… well uh HMM!” He was cut off Luna pressing her lips against his. His mouth dropped, Luna thought he was into it so she started to French kiss him passionately. When Hartman wasn’t kissing back Luna pulled away from the kiss to see Hartman paralyzed.

Luna waked a hand in his face, “hello, Luna to Hartman.” No response. Luna started to freak out “Oh shit I broke him. Help somepony help!” Luna yelled at the top of her voice. Two men in ABU’s came running.

“What’s wrong?” the darker skinned airmen asked.

“I kissed him and he just froze!” Luna exclaimed.

The lighter skinned aim men rubbed his head. “Well he a marine. Uh, I have a, Idea. My brothers a drill sergeant in the marines and he taught me how how to get my voice like there’s.” The airman took a deep breath. “GET THE FUCK UP MARINE, THIS ISN’T NAP TIME GET UP!!!” Hartman shot up and hit his head on the top of the truck.

“Ow!” Hartman rubbed his head. “Who the hell was that?” When he got his barring’s he found two airmen and Luna laughing their heads off. “Yeah very funny now if you two don’t mind getting out of my way before you get ran over.” The two airmen stopped laughing and walked away. “Now onto what I need.”

Luna wiped a tear from her eye, “and what’s that?” Hartman smiled and started his truck.

“Put your seat belt on.” Luna cocked a brow thinking dirty thoughts.

20 minutes later

“Welcome to McDonald’s may I take your order?” Luna was pouting about not getting what Hartman needed.

“Yes, I will take a Big Mac, large fries and a large coke.” He turned to Luna “Luna would you like something?” She looked at the menu.

“Do they have hay fries?”

“No,” he turned back to the speaker. “A fruit salad and a medium root beer. That’ll be all.”

“$15.07 at the first window, thank you.” Hartman drove put got the food and parked. He pulled out his big mac. Luna was staring at him.

“What?” He asked with a mouth full of big mac. She pointed to the sandwich.

“What’s that made of” He eyed the Berger and Luna.

Thinking for a moment he answered. “Bread, lettuce, tomato, cheese, big mac sauce.” He was avoiding what made the sandwich a hamburger.

“What’s that brown thing?” She was curious about what he left out.

Hartman swallowed and sighed. “Meat, from a cow.” Luna looked like she was going to be sick.

“Human’s eat animals?”

“yeah.” Hartman sat down the burger.

“What animals do you eat?”

He rolled down Luna’s window before speaking. “Chicken, pigs, cows, goat, turkeys” just as he thought Luna puked, lucky out the window. “Let’s go with things humans don’t eat.” He listed off everything he could think of. To Luna’s relief ponies were on the list. “That’s everything. So what do you think about human’s eating meat?”

Luna looked at Hartman then at the half eaten big mac. “As long as you don’t force me to eat it… I’m ok with it.” She smiled at Hartman and continued to eat. After Hartman through away the trash they set off for Hartman house. They did stopped a few times to get the cable and internet back on.

…………….

When they go his house it was 10:35 pm. His house was out in the country and was white and the lawn needs some work very big for someone that was only 23 with no family. Luna took notice to this and asked. “Do you have family that lives with you?” Hartman gripped the steering wheel and gritted his teeth.

He spoke in a voice that was mixed with anger and sadness, “No, my family is… not around.” Luna took notice and didn’t press on the subject. He parked the car and helped Luna out of the car. The entered the house. It had blan look to it. There was pictures of family on the wall, it almost looked like the apple family house but less southern and more guy with no taste. “The guest bed room is next to mine I’ll make the bed and tomorrow will go shopping for new close. I don’t think you want to wear the same thing all the time.” He smiled. “Oh, and tomorrow I need to show you something.”

“Can’t you just tell me now” Luna wanted to know now.

Hartman put his index finger in the air, “all good things come to those who wait.” He turned to open the bathroom door. “Now it’s been to long since I’ve had a shower so do what you want until I get out. K.”

Luna yawned, “I think I’ll go to bed.” She looked around, “Were did you say was my room.” She asked in imbursement.

“Come one I’ll show you.” Hartman went to a closet and pulled out a pillow, sheets and a heavy blanket. “It gets really cold in this house at night so you’ll want this.” He hands Luna the sheets. The walk down the hall to a, average size bed room. The wall were a plain white and the wooden bed was a full size plain wood tan. Hartman quickly made the bed, said good night to Luna and was back in the bathroom. He turned the shower on and waited for the water to get hot. ‘Most main characters in fics wait till the last minute to tell the ponies that there a part of a T.V. show for little girls… not me I’m telling her after breakfast. Man it’s been forever since I had a, real breakfast. Can wait!’ Hartman thought. The water was hot now. You could see the steam in the air. He took of his close and hopped in.

……………………

After his shower Hartman went straight to bed. It was late when he heard a knock on his bead room door. “Uhh, come in.” He moaned. Luna came through the door in her alicorn form. She trotted over to Hartman king size bed.

She asked “C-can I sleep with you to night?” Hartman eyes almost jumped out of there sockets. He turned around and looked at her.

“Why?”

She turned her head away from him and closed her eyes, “You’ll think it’s stupid”

He put a hand on her muzzle ‘wow her fur it’s so soft and warm’ “Luan nothing you say is stupid, now get in here.” He lifted the covers and Luna slowly got in. “Good, now tell me why you want to sleep with me.” He’s Lucky that it’s dark for more than one reason, one because he was making eyes at her and two because of a few tattoo’s he has.

“I’m scared.” The comment surprised him. This is princess Luna were talking about here. The best princess.

“Why?”

“You planet is so violent, and the air so dirty… And well you eat meat”

“Well thanks a lot!” Hartman playfully scowled. Luna hoofed him in the stomach again. “OW! If you keep doing that I’ll… I’ll bite your horn” He made a chomping sound.

“You wouldn’t!” Luna sounded very serious. Hartman opened his mouth and nibbled on her horn. She let out very loud moan. “S-stop!” She yelled between moans. Hartman quickly pulled away.

“Shit, sorry Luna. I didn’t know that would happen.” Luna turned around and crossed her fore hoofs. “Please turn around Luna. I’m sorry I didn’t know that would happen, please turn around.”

She did turn around but she was crying. “Well now you know you ass. So just shut up.” Luna snorted.

“You know if I knew that would happen I wouldn’t of done it.” He said in defense. She hoofed him in the stomach again. “That I deserved.”

“Got that right.” She throws a fore leg around him. “You’re right it’s freezing in this house” He put his arm around her says good night and they fall asleep at the same time.

Morning comes and Luna is up bright and early. Hartman on the other hand is sleeping in, he said something about how it’s the first time he’s had the chance to sleep in. Luna left the room for a shower in her human form. When she got back she thought it would be a good idea to lay out his close. His dirty ones were on the bathroom floor so she went on that. She opened a dresser. She didn’t find any uniforms but she did find a shirt that had a picture of her and writing that said “Luna is best princess” She was freaked out for a minute but then she thought back to last night. She had a sly smile on her face and got back into bed mumbling, “Good things come to thoughts who wait.”

An hour past before Hartman woke up. He smacked his lips. Luna was smiling like a little kid who knew a secret. He looked at Luna and said. “Ok what is it?” Luna hummed something and pulled out the shirt. Hid eyes grew wide as he tried to snach the shirt from her but her grip wouldn’t give. “I can explain everything. Just don’t jump to any conclusions! And give me the shirt.” She complied and gave up the shirt. Hartman put it on and a pair of sweat pants. They walked down to the living room. He turned on his Xbox and put on Netflex. He explained T.V. shows and MLP.

“Well lest see one of these episodes.” Luna was skeptical about the whole thing. Hartman put on “Mare in the moon part one and two.” When the two episodes were over Luna was in shock that somehow humans knew about Equestria. “This is impossible. How can you’ve known about use for so long?”

Hartman patted Luna on the back, “Well, Lyra is obsessed with humans so there must be a link between our worlds.” They sat there in silence, until Hartman broke the silence. “Come on were going shopping.” He got up and walked to his room. After a few minutes he came back in his Luna t-shirt and a pair of jeans. While He was changing Luna put her boots on. They got into the car seat belts on and all, but when Hartman tried to start it, it wouldn’t. He looked down at the gas gage, it was on E. “Damn it out of gas.”

Luna looked at him and asked, “How does it work?” He explained what he knew about cars. “I have an idea.” Luna’s hands glowed and the car started. She smiled as wide as Pinkie Pie. Hartman was in shock that magic again. They left and after a short pit stop they were at the mall.

Afghanistan 4 hours earlier.

Chavez was walking back to the barracks, when the general walked up to her. “Lance corporal Chavez.” She saluted the general. He looked at her and noticed that she didn’t have her boots. “There’s no need for that between friends. Where’s your boot at?”

“I gave them to that woman Hartman found.”

“About Hartman, I think he’s hiding something about that woman.”

“What?”

“That’s what I want you to find out. Hartman was acting like he knew her.” Chavez was shocked by what she just heard. The general wants her to spy on her best friend.

“I, I don’t know.”

The general put a hand on her shoulder. “Jane, if this woman knew Hartman before he found her, then it only makes since that he’s hiding something from us. She could be a Taliban cell for all we know.”

“No!” She violently brushed his hand off her shoulder, “He wouldn’t do that! Ever since what happend. He swore his life to the corps. Hartman wouldn’t do that!” She bit her lip, “Would he? I mean, Hartman is a good man. He stopped so many fights between other marines.”

“Yes he did but, that doesn’t mean he can’t change.” The general smiled.

“O-ok.” She closed her eyes and let her head hang.

The general handed her a back pack, she opened it to find a, iphone, a huge wad of hundred dollar bills and a camera. “The next plane will be here in 2 hours.” And with that he walked away.
