When Celestia takes a interstellar vacation, she picks up a traveling companion from Earth. Hilarity Ensues.

Hey, I lived a rather normal life here on Earth. Had a decent job and a nice apartment. But that all changed when a mysterious biker babe offered me the trip of a lifetime. I took the chance and it turned out said biker babe was in fact an horse-like alien from another world and the trip she mentioned actually had less to do with exploring America and more to do with exploring the universe.

Just what the hell have I gotten myself into?

Chapter 1

I swear, this whole trip has been crazy… Oh, to whomever is reading this... Hello, I’m Wes. If you are wondering why exactly this journal got to you or what’s in it, well perhaps it would be best to start at the beginning.

It was a rather normal day for me. I went to my game testing job in Redmond and did my normal thing. Go to work, eat lunch, head back home, surf the internet a bit, and then go to bed. Sometimes I walked over to the diner for a bit of dinner, but my life was quite ordinary. I didn’t stand out from a crowd; I swear I could be the plainest looking guy around. I was somewhat skinny for my age, and I usually wear jeans, a T-shirt and sneakers. I tend to have my blond hair sort of combed back and I have blue-grey eyes. I have fair skin; it’s all right but I do tend to sunburn easily, curse my Celtic-Norse ancestry.

It was during one of my nights surfing the net that I got up to walk around my room and stretch my legs. I then looked out of the window at the rather decent night sky, sure there was a bit of light pollution from Seattle, but I lived far enough away to see the main constellations. It was then I noticed something out of the corner of my eye, it appeared to be a shooting star, but its trail was an odd color, like a rainbow of light cobalt blue, a pale purple , light cerulean and a light turquoise streaking past it as it appeared to go over the horizon. I thought it was certainly an odd phenomenon, but at the time I just shrugged it off as a one-time thing. I even distinctly remember saying, “It was beautiful but it really wouldn’t impact my life that much, it’s just a little interesting distraction.”

Man, am I eating those words right now.

The day after that was quite ordinary; I got to my job early in the morning and started testing out some new levels that got released in the update for the game. I tested out the levels and wrote out the bug reports for the levels as my boss walked in and said, “Hey Montgomery, how are those bug reports coming along?”

I looked over to my boss and said, “They’re coming along great! I just got to finish up these next few ones and then I’ll be on my lunch break.” As I glanced over to the clock and realized that it was almost noon already.

My boss just nodded as he said, “Don’t work yourself too hard.”

Yeah my boss, James, he’s a pretty nice guy. He’s understanding as well as caring. He can be too stubborn for his own good sometimes but he’s still a nice guy in my book. After about half an hour of finishing up those last ones, I went on my lunch break. I walked over to the local diner. It was a small hamburger and fries joint that looked very much like it was plucked out of the 1950’s. Inside it had the typical faux 1950’s styling, Checkerboard floors, with chrome and leather seats as well as 1950’s paraphernalia decorating the walls.

I sat down at the booth and ordered my usual, a ham and swiss cheese sandwich and a medium soda. I patiently waited for it when she suddenly walked into the front door. I heard the door open and when I turned my head to see who walked in I was amazed at her. There was something about her that struck me as odd. Sure she was slightly older than me, but she still looked great. She had beautiful tanned skin as well as a rather nice body and decent sized breasts. I saw that she was dressed in Jeans with black chaps on them as well as wearing a black leather jacket and a white shirt underneath that. I noticed however, the oddest thing about her was her hair; it was about shoulder length but the color-- or rather colors-- of her hair astounded me. It appeared to be a rainbow of colors; a light blue, a pale purple, a light cerulean and a light pink color. I thought she must have one master hair stylist to get those colors to seamlessly go together.

The thing I noticed the most interesting about her were her eyes, they appeared to be colored a magenta or pink color. I thought she must be wearing contacts or something. However I turned and looked at my food before I heard her voice.

“Excuse me, is this seat taken?” asked the strange biker babe.

Trying to be as polite as I could, I looked at her and said, “No, feel free to take a seat, Miss.”

I turned and continued to eat my sandwich as she sat down and ordered a tea... which I thought was an odd choice but she could like whatever she wanted. As the waitress asked for the money for the tea, the biker woman looked around for her wallet almost in a slight panic.

I then said, “Hey don’t worry, hon. I’ll pay for it” as I gave the waitress the money for the tea. I looked over at the biker babe, entranced by her looks.

The woman looked at me as she said, “Thank you so much. I must have forgotten to grab my wallet.”

I smiled at her as she sipped her tea daintily. I looked at her and asked, “So what brings you here to this little corner of the Pacific Northwest?”

“Oh, just a little vacation, Faust knows I need it.”

I looked at her and nodded as I asked, “Oh really, work got you stressed or something?”

“You could say that.”

I smiled at her and extended a hand as I said, “I never got your name hon. I’m Wesley.”

She shook my hand and said, “I’m Celeste. Nice to meet you, Wesley.”

As I finished eating my sandwich, I noticed Celeste had finished her tea and she stood up as she said, “I just might see you again, Wes. I’ll still be in the neighborhood for a few days. If you ever need to get away from this little town and go on a trip with me, I’ll be here.”

I watched her as she smiled and walked out the door. It was then I noticed a large stylized sun patch on the back of her jacket. I thought it was an interesting and strange design for someone to put on the back of their jacket. After I finished my sandwich I headed back to work and worked on testing more levels in the game. I just kept on thinking about Celeste, wondering if I would ever see her again.

After work I started my walk back to my apartment. I decided to take a detour through the forested road near the city square. I walked quietly as the sun slowly set, the first tiny pinpricks of light appeared in the twilight sky.

The stars, I've always wondered what life could be there in the grander universe. What would they look like, what would their cultures be like and what other wonders could exist there? I slowly reminisced about looking up at the stars as a child and hoping one day to explore them. To see what the universe had to offer. But as I got older, I tempered my ambition a bit and got a bit more down to Earth. However, I still kept that dream alive, hoping that one day humanity could explore the stars and meet our extraterrestrial cousins on other worlds.

However, as I was walking alongside the road, I heard something start to approach. It sounded sort of like the revving of a motorcycle, but it had a stranger sound with it. As I looked around wondering where the sound was coming from, I looked up and saw that something from the sky was racing towards me. I ducked as the thing passed over me and appeared to turn around and land.

I got up as I heard a familiar voice, “Wow, you certainly can be jumpy.”

I stopped in my tracks as I turned and gasped at what I saw; Some kind of futuristic hoverbike, like something out of some kind of sci-fi novel. It was colored white with gold decorations on it. I noticed the hover pads or whatever those things were called, were glowing with a blue light, the rear exhaust engines were glowing with a rainbow of colors, the same rainbow of colors I saw on that shooting star I saw earlier, and come to think of it, the same colors on…on…

I then looked at the rider. She appeared to have her helmet on. However I noticed her hands, they were an almost pure white color and, on closer inspection, they appeared to be covered in some kind of light coat of fur. I also noticed the wings that were coming out of the back of her jacket as well as the multicolored tail that was the same color as-- no, this was getting too weird to be a coincidence.

I watched as the rider took off her black helmet with a white stylized sun with six prominences on it and I gasped at what I saw; a vaguely equine looking face. She appeared to have larger more expressive eyes as well as its eyes having a bit more of a forward look to them. I also noticed her mane and tail moving as if the wind was blowing on it, but the oddest thing was that there was no wind at all, so how the hell could it have been moving? My eyes trailed up to see a horn jutting out from her forehead; it sort of looked like a unicorn’s horn. Her ears were on top of her head and were somewhat triangular shaped, again somewhat equine like.

I just looked at her and asked, “What are you?”

The equine alien just laughed a bit and said, “Oh come now, don’t you recognize me?”

I looked at her again and thought, “I can’t believe it, she has the same hair colors and voice as, wait, no there’s no way she could be…”

I then spoke up, “Celeste?”

“Close, my actual name is Celestia; I only used Celeste as part of my disguise to walk among you humans.”

I couldn't believe it. An alien, a real life alien was standing in front of me. She certainly was a looker too. Those long legs, those rather nice breasts and… and… what the hell am I saying? She looks like a horse sure, but me fawning over her would technically be counted as bestiality. I was also worried what would happen if someone else was watching. Would someone record this as a video and put it on YouTube? All it would take is someone pulling their iPhone out and recording this scene between me and Celestia and she would be exposed.

“Celestia, isn't this a bit dangerous? I mean you appearing in your alien form would expose you to everyone here.”

“Don’t worry; you’re the only one who can see me for who I truly am. Everyone else would just see me as a human and my hoverbike as one of those Harley’s, as I believe you call them.”

I looked at her again and said, “How can I be sure you’re actually real? I mean, all of this could just be some kind of hidden camera thing and I’m the butt of the joke.”

“Oh, I certainly am real, Wes.”

As I felt drawn to her, and she appeared to get closer without me moving, I looked at myself and then I was surrounded by a golden aura and the same aura was around her horn as she was doing this and I said, “What...what are you doing?”

“Oh that, just a simple Telekinesis ability.”

I yelped as I said, “How are you doing that?” as I accidently put my hand on her shoulder, trying to keep myself balanced as she “Let go” of me.

“Oh just by manipulating the thaumatic energy around you to encase you in a field to lift you away from the force of gravity.”

I just looked at her blankly, not knowing what she meant by that.

“Let’s just call it magic, to keep it simple.”

I then said, “Magic? MAGIC?! There is no such thing as magic!”

After I said that Celestia just laughed at that remark I made and inquired, “Then how did I and my hoverbike survive reentry into Earth’s atmosphere without a scratch?”

I then retorted, “Some kind of advanced technology, there’s no way this can be magic!”

Celestia smiled, thinking my retorts humorous, “Well, if you’re still wanting to take me up on that offer I gave ya.” She lifted my phone using her magic or whatever she called it and she entered something in it with her fingers as well as her magic. She then gave it back to me and said, “Give me a call.”

I looked at her and asked, “What’s the catch?”

“There is no catch. I’ll just give you time to make the preparations and let your family and friends know that you’ll be gone for a while. It would just be devastating to your family and friends if you suddenly disappeared without a trace.”

I looked at her and realized she was right, if I just took her up on her offer and left without saying a word, they would be devastated.

I then nodded at Celestia. As she got up on her bike I asked, “Is it worth it?”

“Definitely, my little human.”

I smiled at that little name she gave me. Of course she was about 7 feet tall or so, I would be little to her. As she got back on her hover bike she pulled a black sphere from her pocket and placed it upon her horn. It expanded and changed into her helmet she had on earlier as it went around her head and made shapes for her ears to be placed in. I wondered where it went after she took it off.

She then revved up her hover bike and it sped off into the sky with incredible speed. I looked down at my phone and noticed a new contact in my Contact’s list, “Celestia Solaris” and it has the same stylized sun that was on her helmet next to her name. I turned the phone off and put it back into my pocket.

As I walked back to my apartment, I looked up at the sky and weighed my options. Something like this could never appear again in my lifetime, I could finally explore the universe like I always wanted to. But I still had my responsibilities to my family and my work.

As I stared up at the night sky, I made my decision and pulled my phone from my pocket, dialing a number, “Hey, James, I won’t be coming to work tomorrow. I’m going to be taking quite a long vacation…”

Oh if only I knew what Celly and I were in store for, I’d definitely would have made a different decision...

Chapter 2

I looked at my iPhone again for a good while. Looking at my contacts list and seeing Celestia’s contact information, I wondered in my head; why me? There were so many people more qualified and deserving of such of a trip and to actually see a real life alien. I mean, so many scientists would give up an arm and a leg to see what I saw a few days ago. What did I do to deserve such a thing? I’m just some average Joe that no one in the world outside of his friends and family will ever notice is gone.

As I looked at the contact information one more time, I glanced over at the backpack I had next to me, stuffed with the necessities I probably would need on this trip; hygiene products, extra clothes, a couple of books as well as a charger for my phone. I looked at my previous call list, making sure I called everyone I needed to before I had to go. I walked out of my apartment with my backpack on me and headed to the road.

I got some kind of buzz from my phone and I noticed I got a message from Celestia, and an image was included in it. It appeared to be a picture of her reclining on her bike, while silhouetted against the sun as if it was extremely close. I just looked at the image for a while, thinking about how majestic and beautiful she looks, but then again she is still a horse-like alien. I mean, I don’t know why I am attracted to her and why she chose me, but I suppose I’ll make the best of it while I’m on this trip with her. I also wondered just how the heck she was still surviving without any protection at all. I mean, she should have died from vacuum exposure or the intense radiation from being so close to the sun.

I soon dialed the number on Celestia’s contact info and I patiently waited as it rang, but I noticed the ring tone of the phone sounded off somehow, like some kind of pinging sound. I heard an odd sound and I saw a familiar spectrum streak across the sky. Soon I saw Celestia had landed her hoverbike in front of me.

I smiled as I greeted her, “Hey, Celestia.”

“Hello Wes, do you have everything you need?”

I looked over at my backpack and nodded at her. She smiled as she unzipped a saddlebag attached to the side of her bike and said, “Go ahead and put it in.”

I carefully put the backpack in the smaller bag, surprised it could have fit inside such a tiny container. I looked at it and asked, “So what is that, a saddlebag of holding with a pocket-dimension in it or something?”

Celestia just looked at me with a smile and said, “Something like that.”

I looked at her and asked, “Before we go, could we just drive around to the Cascades? I want to have one last look of home.”

As Celestia smiled, she changed back into what appeared to be the same human form I saw at the diner and changed her hoverbike into what looked like a white Harley motorcycle. I smiled as I got on the seat behind her and we began to ride off to the Cascade Mountains.

As we rode along I-90 towards the mountains, we passed my old hometown of Issaquah. It hadn’t changed that much, the old Triple-X Restaurant with its distinctive barrel sign on top that could be seen for a mile or two away, the Bohems Chocolates sign could be seen as well. This little town sure was unique and had beautiful vistas of the hills around it. As we passed into the Cascade Mountains a few miles from North Bend, we stopped at a nice scenic stop overlooking the mountains.

I got off as Celestia set the kickstand on her bike so that it wouldn’t ride off. I walked up to the railing and looked out at the sunset, as the last of the sun’s rays were hitting the evergreen covered hills and mountains. I noticed the sky becoming a yellowish gold color with the first few stars starting to appear in the sky.

“It looks beautiful doesn’t it?” I said.

“Yes it certainly does.” replied Celestia.

As I looked at the beautiful sunset overlooking the view and back to Celestia, my mind raced wondering how best to ask her why she chose me. I looked at the woman standing next to me, looking over the sunset. I was about to speak, but she spoke first.

“You know, it’s amazing how far you humans have come.”

“How so?”

“Ever since I first visited Earth about 250 years ago, I’ve seen how much you have accomplished since then. You’ve created great inventions as well as cured many of the plagues that once ailed you. As well as land on your own moon without magic.”

I smiled at her, “Yeah we sure have come a long way from our earlier days. Even though we do still have wars occasionally but I suppose that just growing pains, right Celestia?”

Celestia just walked up to me and put her hand on my shoulder, “Yes, but all of your technological progress wouldn’t have happened as fast if it didn’t happen, you humans evolved on a world where everything was trying to kill you. You had to have these traits in order to survive and you did more than that, you thrived on this world, if anything I can’t help but sort of envy you humans. You started out so small and frail, no claws to scratch things, weak hearing and smell compared to the rest of the animals on your world, yet you had one thing going for you, small as it was, you had the spark of intelligence and cleverness. You had no claws, so you used rocks you found on the ground and formed them into daggers and made spears to hunt prey.”

I was about to say something when Celestia stopped me so she could finish speaking.
“But you also created great cultures and works of art as well as grand empires. Your people have slowly come together, even as you had the potential to destroy yourselves. I realize that this isn’t Equestria, but you have done extremely well given your species’ situation.”

I looked at her, wondering what brought this up. It sure was interesting to see an alien not be all condescending towards a more primitive species like in those sci-fi novels and TV shows I watch. Celestia looked back at me and I asked, “Why did you choose me out of all of the people on the Earth? It isn’t just about the payment for your tea when we first met… is it?”

Celestia just smiled at me and said, “Just because.”

“That’s not really a reason.”

“Well you’re free to come on this trip, aren’t you? You called up your friends and family telling them you’ll be going on an extended vacation right?”

“Well yeah I did, but Celestia …”

“Then it’s settled!”

I watched her stifle a giggle. I had a feeling there was something she wasn’t telling me, but I didn’t pry about it at the time. I looked up at the stars starting to appear in the sky and I smiled thinking about amazing it would be to visit those stars and see what creatures could be there. Celestia asked, “Are you coming or not?”. She had changed back into her horse alien form and her hoverbike returned to its original look. She patted the seat behind her, wanting me to come sit down. I smiled as I got on the seat and she gave me a small black ball.

I looked at the strange thing wondering what it was. On a hunch, remembering a few days ago, I placed it on my forehead. It then enveloped my head and transformed into a motorcycle helmet. Celestia put a similar helmet on, even though some of her flowing, animate mane was sticking out from it onto her back. She looked back at me and said, “Hang on; this is going to be the most awesome ride of your life!” Her smile was well seen behind the glass of the protective helmet.

As she revved her hoverbike I could see some kind of protective translucent golden shielding cover the area around us and the hoverbike like a bubble, but it faded after a moment. I also noticed that the hoverpads glowing as we lifted up into the sky. I held on to Celestia tight with my eyes closed as sort of an involuntary reaction to flying in a hoverbike. as the Hoverbike flew higher and higher through the sky. As we slowly passed a few clouds we soon reached the stars, my reaction was, well, quite surprising.

“OH SWEET GOD WE’RE GONNA DIE, WE’RE GONNA GET THE AIR SUCKED OUT OF US!” I exclaimed with quite a lot of gusto.

“Wes, relax”, Celestia said, ”It’s all right.”

I opened my eyes and saw that we were flying up into the stratosphere, completely safe. We slowly went up higher and we saw the curvature of the Earth. I thought this was the most amazing sight I ever saw, but that certainly would be topped at what I would see later. I’m seeing something in person most people would only see in a picture or video. I’m actually up there, it was more amazing than any picture or video could ever give.

I took a deep breath and said, “I can’t believe it, I can still breathe this high up, as if I’m still on the ground.” I took a few more deep breaths as I started to breathe normally. I still couldn’t believe this as we slowly lifted up into interplanetary space I asked, “So Celestia where are we going to go first?” .

I watched her place a few locations into her hoverbike on a screen in front of her, it seemed to be some kind of navigation device. She then replied, “Oh to a little place I know to get a bit of grub and to refuel the energy in my bike’s cells.”

Soon as we reached the upper atmosphere, I heard a strange revving and buzzing sound as the rear engine appeared to give off a glow I noticed from behind me. We soon rocketed towards something going through what appeared to be some kind of wormhole. I watched as we rode through the wormhole, it had a kaleidoscope of colors like something out of 2001: A Space Odyssey. I just stared at the “walls” of the wormhole, entranced by the sight until we left it. The Rainbow tunnel dissipating into the inky blackness of space dotted with stars. We soon approach what appears to be a floating space station. It had a long platform like an aircraft carrier. I noticed a bright sign on it in some kind of alien language on it as well as what appeared to be like a gas station.

As we got closer we passed through what appeared to be some kind of bubble and Celly landed her bike near what appeared to be a recharging station. She turned off her bike and appeared to plug in a hose into what appeared to be some kind of energy pump from her bike as blue energy started to flow into the clear hose. I watched as she took off her helmet and shook her flowing hair a bit as she says, “It’s perfectly all right, Wes, the enviro-shields are up.”

I carefully took off my helmet and took a few deep breaths to make sure it was alright and I could breathe normally. I put the helmet on the seat after I got off and Celly took me by the hand and says, “I don’t know about you, but I am starving, let’s see what this little place has in the way of grub!”. I just nodded as we both walked closer to the restaurant and she opened the doors with a kick.

I looked around and saw all manner of alien creatures just staring at me and Celestia as we walked in. Some of them looked human like while others looked like floating jellyfish or squids. I just kept looking at them out of a mixture of curiosity and wonder. I definitely wasn’t in Kansas anymore. I just stayed close to Celestia as I followed her to the counter.

She looked up to the bartender of the place, a rather orange skinned humanoid, with pointed ears and silver hair. It was wearing some kind of shirt and pants as he asked something in some strange alien language and Celestia responded in the same language. I looked at Celestia and asked, “Umm, how did you do that?”

“Do what?” Celestia asked.

I replied, “Speak to him, I couldn’t understand a thing he was saying.”

Celestia’s horn started to glow as she touched my forehead with it and all of the alien languages seemed to audibly change into English. I could hear the orange skinned bartender say, “So what will you have?”

I only just looked at him/her/it and says, “Umm, I’ll have what she’s having?” as I pointed at Celestia, sort of unsure what they exactly had as the bartender went to make the drinks. As I looked around at the various aliens conversing, I then heard a clink of glasses as the bartender placed the drinks in front of us.

As I looked at the drink; it seemed to bubble and glow with a red color, with what appeared to be steam coming off of the top. I saw a small drop of it fall on the counter and it sizzled away with a hiss similar to a drop of water hitting a hot skillet. I looked over to Celestia as she drank the whole long glass of it. After she swallowed the whole thing, she belched and I could have sworn I saw an orange-red flame come out of her mouth. She then covered her mouth after that as she sighed, “Ah! That sure hit the spot!”

I just couldn’t believe she drank all of that in one huge gulp. I stared at the drink as I slowly took it to my lips and taken a sip of it. The moment it had hit my tongue, it felt like someone stuffed my mouth full of habanero peppers and placed a ghost pepper for good measure in there. I coughed as I drank my first sip and put the drink down, hoping that the burning sensation would go away.

As the Aliens looked at me, almost seeming to judge me. I picked up the glass again, took a deep breath and started to swallow the rest of my drink. It felt like someone poured hot lava into my mouth and I swallowed it as fast as I could. I felt a bubbling sensation in my stomach as I belched and a similar flame to the one Celestia did came from my mouth.

I blushed as Celestia smiled at me, “See? You’re already fitting in!”

As I was relaxing, I heard the doors as if something kicked them open. I turned around and I saw what appeared to be some kind of muscular, tall humanoid wolf. He had silver fur on him as well as black dreadlocks on his head and a goatee on his muzzle, face, whatever it was. He appeared to be dressed as a biker too, with his right sleeve on his coat torn off and had a skull belt buckle on his belt.

I just turned away as the aliens began to murmur about one topic or another when I saw the shadow of the large wolf loom over me. The large wolf said in a gruff voice, “You’re in my seat.”

I stared up at the large wolf and with just a bit of fear in my reply , “Oh, this is your seat? I didn’t know.”

I slowly got up, trying to leave. Before I could, Celestia stopped me with a hand on my shoulder. She then spoke, “I believe we were here first.”

The wolf yelled, “No one treats Silverwulf like that!”.

I looked around wondering what to do, when I saw someone throw a bottle at Silverwulf and it hit his head. The large wolf looked around and said, “I’m gonna give you all 10 seconds to tell me who threw that before I frag everything in sight!”

I looked around for an opening as another person threw something at this Silverwulf and before I knew it, there was one hell of a bar fight on our hands. There were aliens throwing punches with their fists/tentacles/whatever. Celestia and I crawled out of there while Silverwulf was distracted. We ran back to her bike as I asked, “Who was that guy?”

Celestia replied, “Silverwulf, one of the most ruthless bounty hunters in the galaxy.”

I said, “Well, I think we need to get out of here.” as we both got on the bike. As we put our helmets on, Celestia quickly left a few golden coins in the payment slot of the machine. Celestia started the engine. however at that same moment,Silverwulf got out and called for his bike. Just at that moment we took off from the space station as the magi-technological shields of the hoverbike went up.

We sped away from the space station as we noticed a few more hoverbikes chasing us. I watched the space station slowly disappear from sight as the four hoverbikes with Silverwulf leading the group, still followed us.

I muttered to Celestia, “We've got company.”

Celestia said, “Take the bars, I’ll get them off of our tail.” She did a momentary spell and with a golden flash we suddenly swapped positions.

I took the handlebars and said, “I suppose now is a bad time to tell you I've never ridden a motorcycle before?”.

I was definitely in a slight panic, used the handlebars to turn to the left a bit. I saw a laser blast speeding towards us, thankfully it missed us by a few feet. I even remember my thoughts from that moment very clearly, “Oh crap, they are shooting lasers at us, I suppose they weren't too happy about that bar fight, but we didn't start it. Why are they chasing us?”. Of course at the time I didn't know who threw the bottle and I suppose I’ll never know.

I looked back as Celestia threw out her hands and a glowing orange-yellow energy appeared from her hands; her horn glowing with the same aura. As the auras around her hands intensified they changed shape into what appeared to be glowing chains made out of solar plasma.

I looked ahead trying desperately to keep the bike on a straight path, while Celestia spun her chains around and launched one of them towards the hoverbikes. I glanced over in the mirrors and saw Celestia swing her flaming solar plasma chains around, hitting a few of the other bikes. The apparent heat of the chains melted the engines and parts of the bikes, causing them to either stop or explode. I saw her chains hit one of the riders on the face, which created a chain shaped burn on his face. I noticed her flinch a bit as if she didn't intend for that to happen.

I noticed Silverwulf get closer to us as he yelled out, “You’re not getting away from me you blinatch!”

A blast of his laser pistol flew above us, just missing us by mere inches. Celestia hit the gun with the solar plasma chains and they went through it as if it was a hot knife going through butter. I heard the wolf cry out in pain, must have been the chains burning his hand. As I tried to keep the bike going I asked, “Celestia, got any ideas on how to get out of here?”.

Celestia just yelled, “Just get us to a distant planet!”

I looked at the holographic controls and tried to figure out what to do, seeing how I couldn't read her written language. I tried to remember what she pressed for the navigation earlier and pressed it. By complete accident I got up to what appeared to be a holographic image of a planet orbiting around two suns; one of the suns being smaller and orbiting around the larger main sun. I pressed the button below that and we sped back into the wormhole.

After the wormhole dissipated around us, we soon appeared over the planet as I tried to angle the bike as best I could while we entered the atmosphere of the alien world. I saw the details of the forested area get closer as we noticed snaking rivers as well as small lakes. We made quite a rough landing as we crashed into a few trees, thankfully the shields were holding as we stopped.

I got off of the bike and kissed the ground saying, “Oh thank God we’re safe.” I then stopped as I realized something, “Smart move there Wes, you just kissed an alien soil that has God knows what kind of alien microbes that could kill you.”

Celestia got off of the bike, putting a furred hand on my shoulder as she spoke, “This certainly is a nice place isn’t it?” I looked around at the alien landscape in front of us. It was a thick jungle of blue and purple leaved plants with two shadows on the ground due to the twin suns in the sky.

I just looked at her and answered, “Yeah if you enjoy jungles I suppose.”

I looked down at the soil for a moment and asked, “Celestia I’m in no danger of getting infected with some kind of alien microbe am I?”

Celestia laughed and asked, “Wow, are you always this much of a worry-wort?”

I said, “Well yes, when it’s about something reasonable like my life!”

Celestia just smiled, “Then don’t worry your little head. I already magically enhanced your immune system before we left Earth, you’ll be fine.”

I looked at Celestia and said sarcastically, “Oh gee, thank you for tampering with my body without telling me or telling me about the risks.”

I got up and looked around, noticing the two suns starting to set. I really was on an alien world. The thing I’ve been dreaming about for all of my life was to stand on an alien soil and now I am. At the same time I was wondering where exactly are we going to stay for the night. I looked around our surroundings and I noticed a cave in the distance.

We both walked to the cave, with Celestia bringing her bike in tow with her magic. I watched the first stars come into view as the twin suns set behind us. The constellations looked nothing like they did back on Earth. Soon after we entered the cave I went to the bike’s saddlebags and unzipped it, taking out my backpack. I took out and unfurled the sleeping bag and place it on the ground as Celestia started to take her bed out of the saddlebag.

I glanced over at her bed and it appeared to be a somewhat simple Queen sized bed. I watched as Celestia started to take off her clothes but then looked away from her wanting to give her some privacy. I walked outside to look some more at the stars of this alien sky. Here I was, on the most amazing journey anyone could ever ask for with an alien biker babe. I mean it’s like something out of a cheesy sci-fi story.

Yet, as I looked up at the stars, I kept wondering why exactly she chose me and why she was so secretive. She still didn’t tell me anything about herself or where she came from. Why didn’t she trust me with that information and how can I trust her if she doesn’t trust me? Yet, why did I go with her in the first place?

Maybe it was because I finally had someone who I could talk to and someone who no one else in the entire world could even dream of having; a real alien from another world. There was just something about Celestia that made me entranced by her. I always thought that aliens would be either strange well “alien” things with many eyeballs or strange non-humanoid bodies, but Celestia was something else. Those equine features mixed with the beautiful humanoid shaped body she had and she just oozed a kind of radiance and grace that sort of seemed out of place for a biker babe. Of course if she’s a horse, would she be a biker mare?

Anyway, once I had my fill I walked back inside and looked at Celestia as she was crawling into bed. She apparently had put on some kind of night gown and her biker clothes were nowhere to be seen.

She smiled at me as she said, “Aren’t you going to come sleep next to me, Wes?”.

I blushed and said, “No, no, I’ll be fine sleeping in my sleeping bag.”.

I crawled into the sleeping bag after changing into my “Pajamas” basically a pair of running shorts, a white undershirt and white socks. I adjusted my position and put my head on the pillow and said, “Good night, Celestia.”.

Celestia made a magical shield appear over the cave’s entrance apparently to protect us during the night. She then smiled at me and said, “Good night, Wes.”.

I closed my eyes; questions still abound in my mind as I drifted to sleep...

Chapter 3

I blinked my eyes open after sleeping for a while. I looked over at the cave’s opening and saw the twin suns rising. So it wasn’t a dream then, I thought. I looked around wondering if Celestia was awake yet. As I put my clothes on, I noticed the bed Celestia had was gone and her bike still was in the same spot as it was from last night. I walked out of the cave and sat down against the edge of the cliff, just taking in the sights.

Yet, I still felt uneasy, questions still going around my mind and I was seriously questioning my choice to go with this woman. Didn’t she have any idea about what could happen? I could be killed on some alien world and no one back on Earth would even know! My family and friends wouldn’t even see me again and they would be worried sick about me if I didn’t show back up home. And what was with those bounty hunters chasing us earlier? Is Celestia wanted for something or some kind of criminal? How can I trust someone who doesn’t even tell me a thing about herself or where she came from or why she chose me at all?

I walked to the cliff and sat down; eating a bar I had brought with me from home. It wasn’t that much of a breakfast but it would do. I heard some footsteps from behind me and saw a white hand go over my shoulder. I looked up and saw Celestia’s flowing mane brush against the back of my head as I looked her in the eyes. She then spoke, “Good morning Wes, sleep well?”.

I said nothing as Celestia looked at me. She then spoke, “Well, it looks like we should be off to another adven--”

I interrupted her, “No.”

Celestia looked at me with an eyebrow raised as she asked, “No? Why are you so hesitant? You were so ecstatic about going with me earlier.”

I said, “Yeah, well, I don’t know how it is where you come from, but being chased by bounty hunters really isn’t fun.”

Celestia tried to calm me down by saying, “Don’t worry, Wes. As long as you’re with me you’ll be fine.”

I looked at her and said sarcastically, “No offense, lady. But until I have something to back that up, I’m just going to assume that you’re seriously underestimating the situation.”

Celestia looked at me with worry, her equine ears folding down against her head. She paced around and after a few moments she sat down next to me. The two of us looking onwards towards the alien jungle and the sea beyond it.

Celestia finally spoke, “I suppose I’m doing this just for a way to get away from it all. I came to a realization sometime ago. You see, it was some time ago that my niece was about to marry, but someone impersonated her and was about to take away her husband. I couldn't stand by and let that witch do that to her!”

I listened in carefully, paying attention to what she was saying as she spoke again, “I tried to stop that evil vile succubus, unfortunately she overpowered me. Thankfully my niece and her future husband to be were able to defeat the imposter and her minions. Their love was able to help in that victory, blasting her and her minions back. It was in that moment, I finally realized something. I never truly loved anyone before.”

I just stared at her and said, “Not at all, you never loved anyone?”

She looked down at me and shook her head as she said, “No, my, er, career sort of prevents me from having that many opportunities for romance and I fear I might be too, well old.”

I just look at her and say, “Old? Celestia you’re not that old, and well, I don’t know, perhaps someday you might find love.”

I was only saying that to make her feel better, and her story did somewhat answer my concerns. She also could take care of herself due to that light show she did to defend us yesterday but I still was somewhat hesitant to completely trust her. There still was something she wasn't telling me.
We both just spent some time there watching the twin suns slowly rise higher as the cries of strange alien wildlife soon filled the air. I looked at Celestia and still wondered what she could be hiding from me, what could be so important that she has to hide from her, well the best word I came up with at that time was, “guest”.

As she walked back to her bike, I got up and walked behind her as I picked up my backpack and put it in the “Saddlebag of Holding” (Good God, why did I name it that? It sounds like something from a Monsters and Mazes game).

As Celestia got upon her bike, I got on behind her. Sitting down and holding on to her tightly after I put on my helmet. As the bike began to rev and power up with the shield appearing around us and we soon rocketed towards the sky away from this world, but for some reason we were headed towards the blue and red twin suns of the system.

We got closer and closer to the twin suns of this solar system, we soon got close enough that we saw the prominences coming off of them quite easily. Thankfully the magical shield around the hoverbike decreased the glare of the suns so that we could look at them without our eyes getting blinded.

We stopped right in front of the two suns, I watched as Celestia stretched out her hands against the glow of the twin suns. However as she did so, I saw something below her fur and her wings, almost like lines of energy colored the same as the color of the twin suns flowing underneath it, like some kind of technological vein or some kind of circuit. I also noticed her horn was glowing her yellow golden color as bits of the light went through it.

Looking at this made me only wonder even more questions, what exactly was Celestia? Was she some sort of cyborg, and why was she doing this in front of the sun? And what was she collecting this energy for? I looked closer as she flared her wings outward to collect more of the solar energy, seemingly to increase the area to bask in the glow of the twin suns.

She then stopped, put her arms down and folded her angelic wings back into place on her back. She revved her bike as we went into another rainbow wormhole. We soon ended up at a small planet near a orange sun, an old dusty planet and landed at a small spaceport town.

Celestia parked her hoverbike near a few other vehicles in front of what appeared to be some kind of pub or old western saloon with a few technological stuff added to it. I took off my helmet as I looked around at a few of the creatures and aliens milling around the small town. I soon got off of her bike as Celestia did the same, as I looked around I wondered why we stopped here of all places as Celestia said, “Well, I think this is a nice place to get some breakfast, don’t you think Wes?”.

I looked over to her and said, “Umm, sure why not?” as I hoped that there wouldn't be any crazy bounty hunters around this time.

I really have to stop invoking Murphy's Law so much.

I followed Celestia into the saloon. We walked up to the bar but all of the aliens inside were staring at us and eyeing us as we got to the bar. I looked over at the aliens, I noticed in particular a small group of aliens consisting of a humanoid with large hands, a small armadillo kind of alien, and a woman with a scorpion stinger coming out of her and she had an eye patch on her right eye.

I also turned to look at a few other creatures, some being small lizards, others looking rather human as they all appeared to stare at us. I followed her to the bar as I sat down on the stool next to Celestia. However many of the aliens that were looking at us got up and started to surround us.

One of the aliens says, “So looks like we've got our bounty right here, didn't have to wait long.”

I looked on as the aliens got closer. Celestia and I were backed against a wall when Celestia suddenly said, “Oh Wes, it seems you have captured me! I have been beaten by your mighty tracking skills, please don’t take me to your hovercycle and turn me in!”

I just looked at her confused as she hit me in the side with her elbow and spoke, “Play along.” without moving her mouth much, as if she was saying it through her teeth.

I just did what I thought was the best thing, improvise.

I said to the aliens, “Uh, yeah, she’s my bounty, and uh, none of you are getting her!”.

One of the aliens, a three-eyed bug said, “Yeah, what makes you think we’ll let ya?”
through some sort of collar on his neck. With the alien “speaking” using clicks and the collar responded in a robotic voice.

I nervously looked at them and said, “Well that’s because I have grand combat training from, er, the Boy Scouts, and they have techniques that can let me protect myself from harm.”.

I looked at the aliens who were backing off as Celestia said, “Yes! It was those techniques that allowed him to capture me!”.

I looked on and said, “Yeah, now I’m, er, taking her back to my hoverbike and none of you follow me or you’ll be next on my list!” as I awkwardly walked past them with Celestia in hand.

However one of the aliens, a big burly bear looking thing, stood in front of the doorway as it said, “Really? Show me one of yer “techniques” if you want to get away with that lady.”

I stopped and chuckled as I thought, “Oh crap, what am I going to do, I can’t do anything.”

I heard a small voice what sounded like Celestia’s that said, “Just do your best Hong Jin impersonation with those awesome kung-fu moves and I’ll take care of the rest.”

I thought spoke, “Wait you saw the Hong Jin movies?”

Celestia’s voice said, “Talk later, action now.”.

I then went and did some kind of kung-fu move with my hands and feet. As I did so, I appeared to glow a slight golden as my hair started to stand on end. I did a few more moves as the aliens stood back as I yelled and did a few more. As an opening appeared, the lightshow stopped and we both went outside of the saloon like place, thankfully none of the aliens were following us.

I did notice Celestia grinning a bit as she whispered to me, “How did you like that little light show I made?”

I quickly said, “Let’s continue this conversation somewhere else Celestia.”.

We quickly got on the hoverbike and sped away, heading towards the sun, where after a few moments of Celestia doing a repeat of what she did back at the two twin suns, we sped off to another star system. Thankfully to find a place somewhere far away from the bounty hunters.

I said to Celestia, “I certainly hope you won’t be making a habit out of this, I mean we almost bit it there.”

Celestia just smirked at me from behind her helmet and said, “But we didn’t, did we?”.

As I tried to rebuttal her we ended up exiting the rainbow wormhole around another planet. This time, an earthlike world with many advanced cities that looked like lighted wheels with spokes connecting to other cities.

We flew down to one of the cities, there were tall skyscrapers all around with landing platforms for hover-cars and hover-taxis, there were also holographic adverts everywhere with neon signs. We landed on one of the landing pads and after Celestia gave the attendant robot another golden coin, we walked together to a hotel.

As Celestia and I walked, we say the large menagerie of various aliens and people mingling down the streets, some buying from what appeared to be stands with various things being sold.

I looked at the various things being sold as Celestia mentioned, “If only I brought those Elvis records I got from Earth. I could listen to them and perhaps sell one or two.”.

I looked at her and said, “And you have Elvis Records too? Where did you get em?”

Celestia said, “Well, Elvis never died he just went home.”

I just looked at her, she did have a slight smirk on her face so I thought she was joking. We soon reached our hotel and Celestia ordered a room. As I sat down waiting, I noticed some kind of Holographic “Poster” on the wall. I took a closer look at it and gasped, it had a badly drawn picture of Celestia, with a scar beneath her eye and her horn cracked in one or two places and her hair tied back. I also noticed some kind of reward written underneath it, as well as the chargers being placed on her. It read like a strange list of crimes, Illegally landing on planets without authorization, giving false coinage, bar brawls, and insulting the Duke of Kra’tktickla.

I looked at the poster for some time before heading up to the room Celestia and I rented out. I just lay on the bed and let my eyes droop down to let it take me to a nice rest after this stressful day. Yet, I wondered what to do, as sleep took me.
