Alexander the Alpha

Alexander and Thompson stood in the room one staring awkwardly at the two fainted females whilst the other had decided this would be a very appropriate time to chase his own tail. Alexander was trying to process the situation when suddenly his brain came to a conclusion. ‘Yep, this is definitely strange.'

“So you came to that conclusion all on your own,” Alexander asked his brain.

'Yep, I did it all alo… that was sarcasm wasn’t it!'

“Yep so you have a plan brain?”

‘We wait until they wake up, but in the meantime we could eat and drink something as well as explore a bit.’

“Yeah because that’s a real sma… wait you actually said something useful once?”

‘I am full of surprise aren’t I?’

“Indeed and also full of holes.”

‘How does that oh you son of a bitch that’s so funny I am just dying from laughing,’ *laughs mockingly*

Alexander decides that he had wasted enough time goofing with his brain so he just took a drink seeing as he didn’t really have any food. “I hope those two females give us some kind of snack when they wake up it’s I think the least they can do after saving their hide from Ahuit….. whatever the monkey things name was,” Alexander stated earning an nod of agreement from Thompson.

“Could you watch them Thompson to make sure they don’t try and get away before we have the coordinates of the nearest space port?”

Thompson gave him a questioning look. “What you are smooth with the ladies,” Alexander said smiling while signaling at the two fainted females which made Thompson roll his eyes.

Alexander went to the tunnel the monkey thing had used to escape from Thompson unlike the one he had used to enter this place the tunnel was completely dark. “He is probably nocturnal if he can find his way through here in the dark that or he knows this place both are possible since this was his lair.”

However before he could explore more he heard Thompson let out a shriek that meant “Get your ass over here!” Alexander stood next to Thompson within half a minute. The dog creature was waking up and when it opened her eyes she saw Thompson and Alexander looking at her which caused her to let a shriek of fear definitely at the sight of the Hentzal raptor and tried to claw away.

As she was still bound to the pillar she only managed to press her back against the pillar fear obvious in her eyes. “Good day to you fair miss could you please give me directions to the nearest space port or to the closest Federation embassy or base?”

The dog creature was staring in shock at him her mouth slightly open as like she was trying to catch flies with it as like she had never seen a human before after a few seconds she fainted again. Alexander looked at Thompson who was giving him a questioning look. “You think we broke her,” Alexander asked.

Thompson shook his head before walking away and laying down on a spot he seemingly liked. Alexander shrugged and laid himself on a comfortable spot as well.

Fang opened her eyes slowly as she tried to remember what had happened slowly, but surely all the memories came back. The message of sister to meet up in the capital as soon as possible, how her old escort had been attacked by a manticore whilst most had escaped she had been forced to stay, but she wanted to go to her sister as quick as possible so she had taken pleasure with a few recruits instead of her old guard escort.

‘Stupid stupid stupid!!!! What had I expected from recruits when we encountered someone as infamous as Ahuitzotl besides running away in fear,’ She muttered angry with herself for being so foolish and angry at the recruits for abandoning her at the very sight of Ahuitzotl. If those idiots had just managed to retreat organized everyone including her would have gotten away, but no they found it a better idea to throw away their weapons and scatter most of them would probably be death by now without weapons lost in the everfree was almost equal to a death sentence.

Her eyes widened as the memories of the biped and the strange monster came back to her and she started shaking the memory of the biped and the monster towering above her and looking at her gave her the creeps definitely with the monster’s teeth. Fang scanned the room and saw both the biped and the monster.

The monster laid curled up next to a small bonfire and the biped was using the monster as pillow it seems. ‘They must be partners or friends if the biped is allowed to use him as a pillow,’ Fang thought.

Both appeared to be sleeping so Fang tried to sneak away only to find the chain still binding her to the pillar. “Should have known there would be a reason why those two sleep so deep even whilst in the presence of two strangers.”

Fang wanted to call the two to ask if she could be released, but she didn’t know if they had come to rescue her or hold her hostage like Ahuitzotl did or worse eat her. The monster was definitely a carnivore and the biped probably an omnivore. She decided that she could best keep quiet waking them up would probably not be appreciated she herself didn’t like it when others woke her up either. Fang made herself as comfortable as possible against the pillar and fell asleep.

She awoke a few hour later looking directly in the face of the biped who was looking directly at her before she could open her mouth to scream the biped said. “Before you faint again could you kindly direct us to the nearest space port or federation embassy or base?”

Her mouth hung open and the only thing she could do was stare at the biped.

“You okay miss?”

Fang merely nodded as she couldn’t muster up any words after a few seconds she managed to ask. “Who.. who are you?”

“Who am I well I am Alexander A Ackerson the best looking pyro-maniac and explorer this year from the federation. I am the leader of the elite wolf pack 4 from the agency of special research besides that I am also the number one customer of Rivoli pizzeria oh I love pizzas so much besides that I am employee of the month from this year februari to juin and I only lost that position because I decided to take a vacation and didn’t feel like getting back number one after I got back.”

While Alexander was rambling on Fang just looked awestuck at him not knowing what to think or do and she didn’t understand half of what he was saying. What was this federation? what was a pizzeria? And why in Celestia’s name would there be an award for best looking pyro-maniac!?!

One part of her was absolutely terrified being in the facility of a pyro-maniac that seemed to not be completely sane either the way he had mood swings. One moment he was looking at her like she was a complete stranger which she was and the next minute he starts talking like she had been a lifelong friend of him that he hadn’t seen in ages however she had also and adventurous side which had gotten her often times into problems that wanted to know more about him.

The little things she knew about him was that he was apparently a very good looking pyro-maniac and explorer,   psychiaters would probably label him either mentally unstable or completely nuts, he was a soldier of some sort an elite one for that, and apparently he was an pizza addict whatever a pizza was.

“So who and what are you,” Alexander asked after he was don telling her about who he was snapping her out of her thoughts. The question raised only more confusing that he didn’t knew her name was normal, but that he didn’t knew she was a Diamond dog was strange.

“My name is Fang and I am a beta Diamond dog ,” Fang answered.

“hm Beta so you work like a wolf pack omega, beta, alpha right? So you aren’t in charge.”

“Yes, that’s the way our community is and well I am not yet in power I am the daughter of the alpha so until one of the two dies and the one that remains decides I should become alpha instead of my sister then I become alpha alongside the parent that remains,” Fang explained until she realized that wasn’t smart to say if Alexander had bad intensions then she had just told him that he was worth quite a lot as hostage whilst still being bound to the pillar so with no way to escape if he chose for that.

“Ah, I see so you’re one of the daughters of the big chief that does explain why that thing kept you hostage rather than kill you now I know who you are would you mind telling me who your friend is?”

“Uhm she isn’t my friend just someone Ahuitzotl managed to ambush on the way of bringing me here from what I gathered those two know each other not on the good way besides that her name is Daring Do and that she is a treasure hunter I don’t know anything about her I am afraid,” Fang answered.

“Do you know where the keys to these chains are. I haven’t searched for them yet because I wanted to speak to you two first before freeing you?”

“They are on the table on the far end near that altar,” Fang replied gesturing to a small wooden table that stood next to an altar.

Alexander walked towards it and took the keys before coming back and freeing both Fang and Daring from their chains. “Thank you Alexander if you don’t mind me asking what are yo and your companion?” Fang asked gesturing to the sleeping Thompson.

“Oh right I am a human and my companion over there is called sir Thompson Snatch the third, but just call him Thompson like everyone does and he is an Hentzal raptor loves biting things from there the name Snatch and when he isn’t sleeping he is the best companion you could wish for yourself if you earned his trust and respect that is otherwise your life is going to be a living nightmare and finally he is my main source of annoyance, but besides that he is a cool guy uhm raptor well when he doesn’t steal my pizza and drink my energy drink. I swear it is nothing more, but an urban legend tat those raptors don’t eat anything besides meat Thompson and his buddies are the living proof of that.”

Fang once again was dumbstruck, but recovered a lot faster than last time. “So he is pretty awesome,” She could hit herself for coming up with such a lame reply however Alexander seemed to agree with her.

“Yeah, Thompson is one of a kind I give you that. You will meet him after he wakes up. A piece of advice don’t wake a sleeping raptor definitely not an Hentzal raptor I swear sometimes I think they see sleep as something sacred to them for boy do they get pissed off when you wake them without good reason,” Alexander said.

“Good to know,” Fang said while making a forced smile se didn’t like it she had almost tried to wake those two up from what she heard waking Thompson up was one of the stupidest things she could have done.

However before she could reply they heard some groaning rom where Daring laid and indeed it seemed like the mare was coming back to consciousness. “Ugh what happened they heard her mumble.”

“Nope, everything is damn real if I should say so myself,” Alexander said startling the mare before she fainted again. Alexander looked back at Fang and asked.

“Do you guys faint two times by default or is it personal preference?”

Daring woke up after a while and saw the biped, the female diamond dog she knew was called Fang and the monster were sitting around a small fire. Daring stood up and the biped greeted her. “Hello Daring mind joining us or do you prefer fainting again? I do recommend at least trying these fruits Fang gathered before you decide to faint they are simply delicious!”

This made Fang blush slightly which was covered by her brown fur as no one had made such a great compliment about her cooking of course she hadn’t cooked for anyone besides herself since she learned it so that had also something to do with it.

Daring stood up and walked over to them where she was handed a plate by Fang. “By the way my name is Alexander and this is Thompson,” Alexander said gesturing to the raptor who gave a nod in agreement.

“Mind telling us how you get in this situation?”

“No, not at all I mean you guys saved my life so I guess this is the least I could do. I was searching for some treasures these temples most of the times contain numerous treasures for those lucky enough to make it to the treasure and to civilization again they could drastically increase your living conditions of course that is not without dangers.

First you need to find them, then you need to reach them and then you need to escape from those that want to steel them from you like Ahuitzotl,” Daring spat the name out like venom.

“I take it this isn’t the first time you and monkey man crossed paths,”

Both Daring and Fang needed to stiffen a laugh at the nickname Alexander had given Ahuitzotl. “You are correct I have encountered Ahuitzotl many times already and whilst this is not the first time he captured me it is the first time he tried using me as a hostage rather than trying to kill me.  Wonder why that was?”

“So what are you two ladies planning on doing now you are free again?”

“Well since Ahuitzotl was here before me I guess I will just go and search another temple,” Daring replied.

Fang sighted sadly. “I need to get to my sister she says there is something very important, but to go through the everfree alone on foot is almost equal to suicide.”

“Well, me and Thompson have nothing else planned and we don’t have a clue of what to do either so if we don’t get shot on sight we will escort you to your sister,” Alexander said only to find himself being hugged by Fang.

“Oh thank you thank you!!!! On that way I can reach my destination whiting the time schedule I had!”

“You’re choking me!” Alexander managed to say whilst trying to get every bit of oxygen he could get much to the amusement of both Daring and Thompson.

“Oh my I am sorry I really didn’t want to…,” Fang tried to apologize before being cut off by Alexander.

“It’s nothing alright, but I want the location of the closest pizzeria near you sisters residency,” Alexander said playfully.

“Oh yeah that’s what I wanted to ask you what’s a pizzeria and a pizza?”

Alexander’s face paled and he managed to say. “You you don’t have pizza’s where you’re from?”

“No, I don’t think anywhere in Equestria for that matter,” Fang replied.

“NNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Damn you god Damn you!!!! THERE IS NO THING I DID WORSE ENOUGH FOR TAKING AWAY MY PIZZA!!!!!!” Alexander yelled while sobbing almost of the verge of a mental break down.

The three others looked at him. The two females completely confused and the raptor with an amused look that said. “That was fucking priceless!”
