Stallion in a Grave
Chapter Five
Previous ChapterWe made it to the top and noticed we weren’t the only ones with the idea of tagging along the expedition. Many ponies were sitting up their claim of the land more towards the middle of the flat ledge or whatever you wanted to call it. I was walking around towards the wall of the mountain where there were less ponies pitching tents. I had found this small opening where there were dark and blue crystals along with bright blue and greens growing out of the rock with magical aura that I could feel in the base of my horn. I placed my wagon in front of the hole making our claim of land as Necro took a stick and drew a large square around the wagon.
“You seem a lot brighter than you were days ago” I had walked over towards him as he was working on converting a few random wild rocks into logs and planks as his magic whirled around in the air above his head has he worked on creating a fence in the dirt he just made a line in.
“New area new life!” he was basically singing as he worked on the fence. I took the time to get out of his mane and stretched my hooves a bit by walking along the tents with different styles of crest that were sown in to the sides. I saw a couple of Pegasus families with dark blue and silver crest with a pair of wings either wrapped around a flower and an apple. I really didn’t see any earth pony families around but I did see a lot of unicorn families around as I strolled through the small alley way of tents. A few ponies were fighting over land with their horns locked together in battle I just keep walking on by deciding it was none of my business to sick my nose in. What I did see were a lot of solar guards or more commonly known as Solar Stallions since mares were never seen in the guard itself. I always wanted to do something about it but I just pushed it in the back of my mind for now, since I have other things I need to worry about and to do. I had walked back to the yard noticing that Necro had finished the fence and was building a small fire pit.
“See anything?”
“Not much everypony is fighting over land in the middle like it was something great” I walked over towards the wagon as I pulled out the cauldron and placed it in front of him as I walked towards the back of the wagon towards the entrance of the cave. I squeezed through the gap I had left as I placed my hooves into the dirt of the cave as the hair of my coat stood on ends. It was breath taking but I was too busy trying to figure out how can I build off of something like this? I walked back out of the cavern towards the opening for another time but I did pick up a couple of gems that were a bright blue with white swirls in the middle of it. I pushed the wagon out of the way noticing a few other ponies had seen what we had done and moved in beside us. I didn’t give it another thought as I pulled out a large black box from the wagon where my armor was stored.
“Now would be the best time to work on this …I might need it” I was thinking to myself as I cast my gaze on a couple of the nobles who were chatting up a few guards. I placed the helmet and the leggings on making sure the straps were still working as I pulled out the breast plate walking around the wagon noticing Necro was talking to a large white stallion with long bleach blond mane tied up, they both stopped the conversation as I appeared.
“Oh do not stop because of me just checking the straps” I pulled the helmet off as I left the leggings on as they were still looking at me.
“What?” I placed the breast plate in front of me as the large stallion walked over and bowed down.
“I am Prince Blueblood”
“Wait you meet original blueblood?” Rarity had asked almost spitting out her tea as I laughed a bit.
“Oh yes I did. At least he had manors and knew how to treat a mare but I still kicked his flank a couple of time unlike the one we know today, now let me continue.”
“I am Prince Blueblood of the house of Noble Blue and what is a lovely mare like you doing with a stallion like him?”
“Okay I lied he is just like the blueblood of today.”
“And why is it any of your concern boy” I cast my eye at him as I pulled my blade from my magic placing it in front of him.
“Oh well such a lovely mare with a gift for magic doing with somepony like Him” he had his nose up at Necro as he went walking out of the yard causing me to worried a bit.
“Because I can” I placed on the breast plate and the rest of my armor as Blueblood had his back turned listing the things that he could do for me that Necro couldn’t do in his entire lifetime. When he turned back I think the color had drained from his mane as he saw me standing there in my armor, the one time I actually want to put on the “Maiden act.”
“Now listen to me you little pony! I can hang around anypony I want! If you want to go around and mounting mares you can do that but do not come knocking on my families door now or in the far future! “
“And if I don’t?” he was trying his best not to quiver in front of me.
“You will meet the MAIDEN!!!” I shouted at him as all eyes were on us as I forced him to back out slowly off our land as a couple of guards were staring in shock as Necro was keeping quiet.
“Now if you excuse me I really do need to fix this” I took off the breast plate and walked over towards the box that was lying on the ground. Necro came walking up to me.
“That was something else.”
“Sorry but I really hate ponies who think they can do anything or anypony they want” I placed my armor against the fire pit leaving Necro standing there alone with his thoughts.
As most of the day wore on I had spent walking around getting to know a few of the local ponies as Blueblood kept his distance from me shaking every time I came near him. I found myself sitting outside of my wagon watching Necro and the others start along the foundation of their homes I sat their staring at the sky as I closed my eyes feeling the wind blow my mane back.
“Are you okay?” Necro looked at me as I shook my head.
“I’m alright” I had only one thing on my mind at the current moment and that was Necro, I had never seen him with his mane and tail tied up as he wiped off the sweat off his head. He had most of the foundation laid out in stone and wood. My eye was twitching was he walked over as I could feel my cheeks started to turn a dark red as I shook my head.
“Why don’t we go for a walk?” I blurted out.
“I think you need to lie down” he placed a hoof on my forehead as I leaned up and kissed him out of the blue. My eyes widen to dinner plates as I jumped to my hooves as I ran into my wagon leaving him out there alone with his thoughts in his head and thoughts in my head. I climbed into my bed pulling the covers over my head feeling like some kind of derange mare on the loose. I just simply closed my eyes and wait for the worse.
