Wolf among sheep

Previous ChapterNew York...
You had a small smile as clouds rapidly began to surround the city making for a perfect weather for saving a damsel in distress.
You approached a corner and peeked as you heard the two guards conversation.
"Fucking cold why can't Draco just get the bitch to list where the fuck the events are happening at." One thug asked as he breathed into his hands.
"You've been complaining for the past hour. Now shut the fuck up and do what you're paid to do." You looked around the alley and grabbed a glass bottle you threw it near the two guards as complaining one noticed the noise.
"What was that?" He asked
"Probably just some rats sit tight and don't move a fucking muscle." The other stated
"Fuck you I'm going to check it."
"Hey if you wanna get bit go right ahead you'll probably have to get a rabies shot." The other said with a chuckle
You broke another bottle as you grabbed the neck of the glass bottle ready to kill the guard as he approach.
"Get closer you fucker." You said in a hushed whisper as he approached your area. You then jammed the jagged shards into his neck twisting it as you did blood started to pour as he gargled on his own blood.
"One down, one to go." You simply say as you dragged his body to a dumpster.
"Hey you alright over there you aren't bit are you?" The other guard asked as he approached the alley.
"You better not be messing with me asshole." You quickly threw his body into the dumpster and got ready for the next person. He slowly started to inspect the area as he took out his phone shining the light into the dark alley.
You quickly slammed him towards the wall your arm was forced on his neck making it difficult for him to breath as he tried to poke your eyes. You slammed him again with more force making his hand faultier at the force exerted.
His eyes slowly closed as you put more then enough force to knock him out. You let go of him as he fell to the ground in pile of tired heap.
You dragged his body out of sight and towards somewhere you could easily dispose. Once that had finished you entered the building it was relatively empty nothing but darkness and some hanging lightbulbs.
"Let's get this shit over with."
Equestria...
After your day with Fluttershy all seemed pretty good your mission was still a go. You had a few more days to prepare after receiving the blueprints of the art museum you found a few exit routes keeping the civilians safe from harm was your ultimate goal. You didn't want deaths on your conscience to Discord it was more or less secondary as it was something that he didn't mind.
You were currently with Rarity as she had set up today for her to fashion the new outfit she had made for herself. Something about the idea of her strutting around in a dress was okay for you. In a way it was a way for her to show off that she is talented at what she does for a living.
You personally never seen what she could make but from what you've seen in the boutique she was extremely skilled and must've had practice.
"That looks wonderful Rarity seems like you've outdone yourself." You stated as she gave a delightful bow. What she wore was nothing but stunning she had a long black strapless dress that hugged her curves in just the perfect way. There seem to be intentional tear going up her leg and stopping near her thigh. She didn't wear any high heels mostly because she wanted to show off her dress.
"Thank you Dante you're very kind oh and if you enter the changing room you should find your suit on a hook."
"Thanks." You entered the dressing room and began to dress yourself in the brand new and comfortable suit.
A few minutes later...
You looked yourself in the mirror as you saw the black slacks comfortably wrapped around your lower body with black jacket to match. The vest was an ash gray colored, one of the many colors you enjoyed wearing.
"It looks wonderful Dante black really suits you."
"I get that a lot but you must get that as well."
"Ah yes the many complements after awhile they start to get annoying I'm not that easy to flatter either." She let out a sigh before walking towards a changing room removing her dress as she did.
You walked towards the dressing room door and continued to talk to her.
"Rarity you mustn't think like that sure there's a few guys after one thing, but most guys care for you and want the best for you. Take Raiden for example he cares for deeply you're like a big sister to him I wouldn't say he loves to the point where he'd do well ya know the whole package to you. But you get my meaning there's men out there who'd fawn over you." You stated as she exited the room wearing a whole new attire.
"Like you?" She asked
"Not me per say but someone who cares for you in a emotional level."
"Again like you. Dante we met only a few days ago and a little birdie told me that you were especially fond of Fluttershy." You sighed and rubbed your temples as she gave you a small kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you Dante for your words but you and I can't be together I care for you as friend." You were losing a battle with someone you had to get her to love you.
"But I want to expand what I do to others especially the women I love."
"So you have a herd?" She asked
"Uh no but-"
"And you do know that a herd takes a lot from a man seeing as he has to care for each girl he has." She seemed to be pretty knowledgeable about the subject as she got closer and closer to make you nervous something that rarely happened to you.
"If you manage to get Fluttershy to agree with our arrangement then I'll be happy to offer myself into your little harem." Rarity simply stated
"I thought this was a herd not a harem." You asked she only smiled and walked away from you making confused beyond belief. If you wanted to successfully do the mission you needed to have her as a girlfriend which meant recurring Fluttershy to your harem or whatever the hell they called it here, whatever the case maybe you had to talk to Fluttershy first before you did anything else.
Sometime later...
You had walked from Rarity's home towards Fluttershy's cottage it took sometime to get there as she lived a little far from town. You noticed that not a lot of cars were owned in town but due to the lack of transportation there were very few roads built too. Seemed rather peaceful as it was something welcomed to you as you lived in a rather large city for years.
Every once in a while you'd go to the countryside and tried to get away from the chaos that is the cities. You always went with someone special to you someone you kept near and dear to your heart.
You continued walking as you spotted Fluttershy tending to her animals. You walked up the small hill and called out for her.
"Oh hello Dante it's good seeing you. What brings you here?" She asked with a smile
"Well I wanted to check up on you is all I still owe you. So I thought of a perfect way to owe you."
"Oh and what's that?"
"Would you like to join me on a walk around town. Look at it as a date."
"A...d-date?"
"Yeah seeing as we both are kind of alike I mean we seem like a perfect match."
"B-but people will start to talk and I don't think I can handle that kind of attention." She said playing with her fingers as she looked down
"Shy." She blushed and looked up at you
"Shy it's just a little walk you don't have to think of it as a date."
"No it's just that." She got closer to your ear and whispered
"I've never been on a d-date before."
"Neither have I but there's a first time for everything." A smile appeared as she held your hand making her tighten her grip on your hand.
"Now all we're doing is walking around town we can talk about anything you'd like could be the weather,gossip,past events or anything of the sorts." You said with a chuckle
Raiden...
"Honestly Eris, would you just move here already? You spent more time here then in your actual house, remember? The mansion the place where you and your dad live." Raiden stated as he looked at the pictures of his two loves that being Octavia and Vinyl both special to him though finding out about Twilight and her hidden affection towards him has left him confused.
"You want me to move in? Hell I only came to see the new guy before he stole my heart." Eris said with a happy sigh
"Always the romantic I see, and to answer your question, yeah I'd like that, who wouldn't like to have a goddess of chaos as a little sister, that has a personal vendetta against bra, panties and over all clothes." Raiden turn to see her with a smile
"It's nice to see you by the way, Dante isn't here if that is the reason you came." He stated
"Oh I know he's pretty busy with his mission in a few days something tells me he's going to go all out to prove that he can handle more then just arson."
"Then if you know he isn't here, why did you come? Did you miss your big brother?" He asked in mocking tone.
"Part of it yeah but Discord wanted to me to give you this." She said passing Raiden a note.
"What is it?"
"It's a mission Discord needs you to do."
There's a problem in Apploosa I need you to find a couple of bandits who were dumb enough to steal from me. Get back the cargo and do whatever you want with the bastards.
"Je from the note I can see he's not happy, but I can agree with that, still with your dad? je some days I think the only thing worse than me is his wrath." Raiden take a deep breath and look at the pictures once more.
"I better warm up, do you mind bringing Octy and Vinyl here?"
"I'll bring here." She said with a smile
"And Eris, before you go…I know you had your fair share of…company in the past, so I need to ask…is it wrong to want to expand your herd?" Raiden asked
"Seeing as you started with two in the beginning and nothing more. No it's not wrong go for broke if its not meant to be then its not meant to be, but ask yourself this. Do you really want hold in any feelings you have on another and maybe have that chance slip once she moves on?"
"I…don't know, but I can't just get another girl, it's not fair for Vinyl and Octy it's not that I don't love them I do…maybe I should talk with them first, they deserve to know."
"Just tell them should make you feel better." Eris informed
"Thanks."
Dante...
"Seeing as you and I have a few things in common yes I'd love to help you with your little project." You said with a smile as you sipped your soda.
"Thank you Dante you're the first person I could even consider this job with I know Rainbow Dash is there for me but she can't always be there for me." Fluttershy always amazed you she was considering making a shelter for homeless animals but couldn't scrape enough money for building supplies.
"Well for one we have to raise up the money, it's going to be a little challenging but I think together we can pull it off." You reached for Fluttershy's hand as she shied away but then grasped your hand looking into your icy blue eyes.
"Dante do you have any family at your old home?" Fluttershy asked out of the blue.
"If taking care of a twelve year old girl counts as family then yeah. But I was young when my mother unfortunately died she left me this as memento to her." You took out a black colored diamond necklace with small sapphire stones circled around the diamond.
"Wow your mother left you that, it looks amazing oh that's a midnight diamond. Rarity also says that those are hard to come by. They're almost as rare as a fire ruby." Fluttershy stated
"Seems like you and Rarity have a deep connection with each other."
"Of course she's one of my closest friends, but are you a dad?"
"Why do you ask?" You asked
"Well a little girl and you not having siblings she must be your daughter."
"Fluttershy I'm twenty if I had a daughter she'd be around two." Fluttershy blushed and looked down apologetically
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to-"
"It's fine but she thinks as me her dad I keep reminding her that I'm her older brother but she keeps saying pardon my French bull crap." She merely smiled and tilted her head back slightly as she looked up into the bright blue sky.
"It's almost the same thing. I remember when Raiden first arrived to Ponyville he was shy and kept to himself as if he didn't want anyone to talk to him, but then Rarity talked to him and asked what his problem was. Soon he opened up to her she's the only one who knows about his problem we never asked what his problem was since we respect him." Fluttershy let out a small giggle as she remembered something from the past
"We all thought that they were a couple with them being inseparable that led to an awkward surprise party." If you weren't trying to get Rarity to love you then maybe Raiden and Rarity could've gotten together it was a slight possibility.
"Well friends can sometimes become closer then they think they'll go. Like you and I we've known each other for a week and seems like you and I have great chemistry." Fluttershy blushed and smiled as she looked at your hand still holding hers.
"If it would please you would you like to have dinner at my house?" You asked
"If it wouldn't be too much of a bother, I'd love to have dinner with you." Fluttershy said to you as she rose from her seat.
"I look forward for tonight." Fluttershy walked away a smile across her face as you took out a pack of cigarettes from your pocket and began to smoke.
You let the enriching tobacco enthrall you as you exhaled it out. You tapped the cigarette a few times letting the ashes fall to the ground.
"You okay fella?" You looked up to see Applejack with a look of concern.
"Oh hey uh Applejack correct?"
"Yes sir so what's with ya from what I saw, you got Shy to agree on a date? You ain't happy with the situation or what?" She asked
"I'm happy yeah but just have to deal with some shit that's all."
"Right so smokin' is your solution? Let me hear what's hurtin' ya?"
"My old home. I can actually say that I miss it. I miss the pollution hell I even miss the sirens every few minutes they come by. But I know I can't go home not with the amount of heat I have on my head." You simply state as you took a long drag of your cigarette.
"What kind of heat do you have on yourself?" She asked with slight anger
"A whole lot of heat that makes it impossible to go back."
"If there's one thing I care for it's my friends. If you think about dragging Fluttershy into your shit you and I are going to have a serious talk." She said with a threatening tone
"That was in my old home AJ I moved here for a reason to get away and you doing that isn't helping me. I know you care for Fluttershy but she's a grown woman and I'm willing to do anything to protect her." You took one last drag of cigarette and threw to the floor stepping on it.
"You came here a week ago and you already love Fluttershy. There's more to it then what you're putting on you're planning something I don't know what it is, but I do know this hurt her I'll hurt you." She stated as she walked away
You stood there for a few minutes before walking away from the area and towards your home.
Home...
"Thanks for coming, girls." Raiden said as he approached his two girlfriends.
"What's up Raiden why'd ya call us?" Vinyl asked
"Two reasons actually, the first is keeping my promise of telling you, I have a new mission I have to go to Apploosa to deal with some bandits, and as promised I won't hold any details, they're armed dangerous and have strength in numbers." Octavia sighed but let Raiden continue his speech
"The other thing though, its a bit difficult to talk about."
"And why's that?" Octavia asked
"Eris please I can't have you here when Fluttershy comes over later tonight." You practically begged as you walked alongside Eris.
"I dunno how much is this date worth to you?" She asked grabbing you by the collar of your shirt as her lips hovered over yours. Raiden cleared his throat making you and Eris turn to see two girls with Raiden sitting with them.
"Hey Raiden how's it going?" You asked with a slight chuckle
"Good Eris please it go of Dante you can have your way with him later." Eris sighed and obliged
"Dante do you remember what you said before the thing with Twilight?" Raiden asked
"Yeah what about it?"
"Can you explain to my girls about Twilight and her feelings for me."
"Sure what Raiden's trying to say is that Twilight likes Raiden a lot even when he teases her she loved being touched in a naughty way." You said with a chuckle
"I never noticed I just thought it was normal." Vinyl informed
"Was what normal?" Raiden asked
"Ya know her smiling when you did that stuff but hey guess she really liked it."
"Wait, you…you knew? and you're ok with it? Really? You're not mad at me?"
"Not really. Twilight's the kind of girl you'd like her to be happy for and if she likes you then that means she wants to be happy."
"It's not that I don't love you girls I do, it's just…well I'd like Twilight to be happy, and I know you wish that too, so…perhaps we should give her a chance, don't you think?"
"Of course we'll give her a chance." Octavia stated
"Thanks girls, well with that out of the way I think its only matter of think how are we going to do it." Raiden asked
"You can figure that out on your own I gotta get ready for tonight." You said to him
"Ok, good luck in that oh and I forgot to tell you, I'll have to leave town for a couple of days and I invited Eris to move in with us." Raiden said as he pick up a big backpack and left the house alongside Vinyl and Octavia.
"Eris we need to talk!"
Raiden...
Raiden walked towards the train station as he walked towards the station with his two girl friends he spotted Twilight. He quickly told them to hide as he walked over to his friend.
"Aww already missing me so you came so I can give you a goodbye slap?" He gives her a light slap causing her to blush.
"Will you stop that!" She said with a glare only to blush as she looked away.
"Ah you know you love it." He giggle alongside Vinyl and Octavia who were watching the whole thing
"So honey what's in the box? Some toys? Why bother. You know I'm only a call away if you're feeling lonely." He stated with a smile
"Be quiet Raiden they're just some items I need in the library." After chuckling he looked towards the station to see the train arrive.
"Well looks like my ride is here, in case you're wondering work pops up and once again I'm needed to deal with some dangerous, and arm bad guys." Twilight gasped and looked down almost as if she needed to say something.
"Be careful you don't want to get hurt now do you?" She warned
"Why the sudden care Twily? I thought you'd be happy not having to see me around for a sometime."
"Uh well I don't want one of my close friends to get hurt it'll just be horrible."
"I'm a close friend to you? I thought that space was already taken by my sister and the other four girls you're fond of?" He asked
"We've known each other for a long time now I think you know that were friends." Twilight stated
"Je funny, one would think that how you glare at me, you barely tolerate me." Raiden surprised her by hugging her and whispering into her ear
"I'm going to miss you too."
"P-please don't leave." She says in a hushed whisper
"Don't worry I'll be safe…just have a bit of faith in me ok?" He sighed and looked at Vinyl and Octavia while Twilight hugged him. He released her and clean some of her tears.
"I'll be in the outskirts of Applelossa, searching for place for the bandits to hide, if I don't come back in three days you can join Octavia and Vinyl in their search party, its part of our agreement, when I go on missions, would that help you easy your concern?" She nodded and gave him a quick kiss.
He smiles and surprises her once more by holding her chin and giving her a kiss on the lips for a few seconds before breaking it with her still in shock.
"Just a little something for you to remember me, by Twily." He gives her a quick slap on the ass before running to the train boarding it on time before it started moving again.
New York...
"Hey uh asshole you might want to check on your buddies outside they're really hurt or you could stay in here too chicken shit to fight one guy but I guess he'll stab you in the throat and let the blood seep out." Lilly stated with a laugh
"Shut it you bitch!" The guard shouted as he approached Lilly. Before he could slap her Lilly kneed his balls making him fall to the ground Lilly ran towards the fallen guard and began to put pressure on his neck until he started choking. The guard grabbed his baton and smacked Lilly off as she let out a yelp of pain.
He started coughing as he unsheathed his knife placing the knife directly over her neck. Lilly spat at his face as glob of blood and mucus went into his eyes as he yelled in pain.
Lilly tackled the man and grabbed the baton and smacked him upside the head making him fall to the ground unconscious.
She started to loot his body only to find his keys and a sharp knife.
"Thank you asshole." She walked over to the door and unlocked it to see you on the other side the Guys Fawkes mask on your face.
"Hey asshole you here to beat me up or something?! Cuz I already beat that fucker up!" She shouted you looked behind her to see a bloodied and battered man.
You grabbed her wrist and took her with you.
"Wait who the fuck do you think you are!?" You crouched down to her height and put your index finger on her lips.
"Shush young girl a mouth like that can have her tongue cut out." She swallowed a lump in her throat and quickly quieted herself down.
"Good girl."
Author's Note
New York has its ups and downs
Anyway I recently played Max Payne 3 and the final levels are fucking difficult you die multiple times and they give you more pain meds each time you die and it's frustrating as fuck I swear to god there were times I just wanted to smash my remote out of sheer hatred towards Max's bullshit.
Anyway I had to get that out of way thanks.
