The mystery of Barry
Chapter 8 Revealing of the fallout shelter
Previous ChapterThree months have passed with ease. Barry had been cleaning up the Fallout shelter and it was starting to look really good and clean. The apartment rooms were all clean prepared just in case. I learned firsthand not to use magic inside the base or the radiation alarms go off. I also put a huge bookcase in front of the cyro room door so that I didn't have to explain it to them. I didn't put any wards on the door to try and hide it in fear that Celestia and Luna would be able to sense it and then ask questions. Chrysalis is now seven months pregnant and the twins are showing . When in her human form she has a little difficulty walking long distances otherwise perfectly healthy, she tried helping Barry clean up the apartments rooms but ended up sleeping on one of the beds.
"Well Chrissy, we are now done with cleaning and can enjoy the next four days to ourselves until Celestia and Luna arrive. So what would you like to do for the rest of our free days. "
"Lets just enjoy each other's company," grabbing his arm and led him to the couch.
As we sat on the couch, Chrissy laid her head on me and dosed off. "Sweet dreams," kissed her on her forehead. I put my hand on her belly feeling the two little ones inside her. "So in four more months we will have two new members to the family." I dosed off soon after that.
After waking up three hours later and a glance at the alarm clock, it was already 3:30 and we slept through lunch. My stomach started to growl. I wanted to get up and make a sandwich but I still had Chrissy sleeping on me and I wanted her to rest and not wake up, so I tried to go back to sleep. Since I couldn't get back to sleep and was starving. I slowly picked up Chrissys head and slowly slipped out of the couch and put her head on a soft pillow. (FREE)
I walked into the kitchen and looked at what we had and made a cheese sandwich with just a little bit of mayo and ranch dressing, MY FAVORITE.
"Ok, let's practice a little bit of controlling my magic," I rarely used my magic, it's cool and all but since I only got it recently it's never been a real deal with me since I normally see that its used just like my hands. "Ok, I can do this now," I tried a few of the more advanced spells that Chrissy was trying to teach me....... "That spell is too much for me," it drained a lot of my energy, "man these ponies must have a lot of energy, if they can do multiple spells and I struggling with just one right now."
I went back inside and found that Chrissy moved back to the bed, just as I was about to walk into the room, she busted out of the room and ran into the bathroom.
"....... ........ ....." I was confused at what I just saw. "Chrysalis, are you all right?"
No, answer............
I slowly opened the door to find her sitting on the floor and her head in the toilet. "Are you ok sweetie?" She looked up at me and her head went back down in the toilet, throwing up. I walked up to her and sat on the stool and rubbed her back. "Everything will be ok," I just repeated saying that over and over again. I then realized she hadn't done this since early in her pregnancy...... I looked at her and just continued to rub her back. I sat with her in the bathroom for about five minutes when she finally stopped puking and sat up. I grabbed a wet cloth and cleaned her. "So are you feeling better now?"
"Yes Barry, I feel much better now, let's go lay down in the bed, I'm exhausted." We got up and walked back to their bedroom and laid down on the bed. I laid down and laid my head of Barry.
I watched Chrysalis fall asleep and I guess she like using me as a pillow. I never quite understood why but right now I was also starting to feel sleepy and then closed my eyes.
"Barry's Dream"
I walked around on the beach, I picked up a sand dollar looked at it and put it back down in the water. Hostility appeared behind him.
"Hello Barry, how are you?"
"Ah Hostility, it's been long time, and how are you today?"
"I saw you last night as you dreamt," Chrysalis walked up and sat by Barry. "Ah so this is the lovely Chrysalis."
"Yes, Hostility, you are correct." Chrysalis and I sat in two beach chairs, and Chrysalis put her book on her tummy as she got comfortable. I pulled out another chair for Hostility. "Want to take a seat bro?"
"No, I'm good, its time for me to do my thing," he turned around as he started to kill everypony in his path.
While Hostility did his thing, Chrysalis sat reading her book while Barry was trying to find a song to play on his I pod. He ended up playing AC DC. I knew that my dream was boring but It was just that way to keep Hostility under control. Occasionally he would bring up some useful information or papers that I wouldn't catch during the day. After a while I ended up turning off my I pod and went into the water and swam. While swimming, Chrysalis put her book down and came in the water swam with me. Even while carrying the twins, she was still happy as could be.
Hostility joined the swim later but as soon as he entered the water, it started turning red with the blood running into the water from all of the dead ponies.
"Ahh relaxation." Chrysalis giggled as Hostility tried to stay afloat.
(Everything froze but Barry and Hostility.)
"What in the hell?" I looked at Hostility.
"Hey don't look at me I didn't do this!" Hostility said.
Just as they got Chrysalis back into her chair (She was still frozen), Luna appeared out of thin air and walked over to them. She froze for a few seconds when she saw Hostility.
"Hello Barry, ..... Hostility. How are you two doing this evening?"
"We are doing well, Miss Luna," replied Hostility. "What brings you here?"
"I just wanted to remind Barry that we would be arriving tomorrow around lunchtime." I looked at Barry. "You did remember about tomorrow right?"
"Yes Luna, I remember and we are ready for your visit, and you're going to arrive before lunch time right?"
"If that is what you would wish, Barry."
"If is ok with you and your sister, I'll have something special for you two for lunch, something that came from my time. "
"It sound delighted, WE SHALL ARRIVE TOMMROW!! " She said in the royal Canterlot voice.
As Luna vanished Barry and Hostility looked at each other as the dream continued and Chrysalis wondered how she got back in the chair. Barry reassured her that everything was ok and nothing was wrong.
(Waking up)
I opened my eyes and saw Chrysalis, she was drooling on her pillow. She looked so peaceful as she slept her long mane all frizzled, her little crown laid on its little spot on the nightstand. All was well and I looked at the clock and it was 6:45, I decided to get dressed and prepare breakfast for Chrysalis. I made pancakes and as the last pancake came off the stove and I put it on a plate, as I brought the plates to the table and got some coffee ready, Chrysalis came to the table and sipped her coffee.
"Barry these pancakes smell delicious," She used her magic to levitate her fork and took a bite out of her pancakes, "Woops forgot the syrup." I put syrup on the pancakes and resumed eating them. Barry sat down and poured syrup and started to eat.
"Well you ready to get this over with Celestia and Luna today? Also don't worry about lunch because I have it all planned out."
"Ahh that is sweet of you Barry," Kissed his cheek," and yea I'm ready. So what are you making for lunch?" I gave him a curious look.
"It's a surprise, but it's something from my era. I know its a salad but the ingredients are over seven thousand years old...." I smiled. I still have the original seeds that we can grow and produce an ancient food back in its original state. "
"Wow that's awesome Barry. I now can't wait till lunch now!" I put my off on my belly, "Barry, one of them are kicking," I put Barry's hand on my belly.
"Wow, that's amazing," kissed her on her cheek. "Ain't that a little early for only 7 months pregnant?"
"Yea, I suppose, but either way I like the feeling." I got up and headed to the couch. "Barry I'll let you get the preparations, and I'll wait here till the princesses come ."
"Ok, sweetie, you have fun," I kissed her on her lips and walked into the fallout shelter and started to get a few logs printed out so that Celestia and Luna could read a little and learn about the base. I had some refreshments out in the mess hall, which was just a six pack of Pepsi in a bucket with ice. Knowing I only had a limited amount of my favorite soda, I was sad but, if preserving this facility and the people who were asleep in cyro, it would be worth it. I looked at a clock and saw that I had an hour before they arrived so I went back to the surface and went inside.
"Hey sweetie, I'm going to take a shower if you need me." As I walked past her, I rubbed her mane.
"Ok, Barry," I watched him head to the bathroom and then went back to reading my book.
As Barry was in the shower, Chrysalis tried to squeeze herself into a dress but was unable to do to her twins that were inside her. She soon gave up on it and went back to the couch and combed her mane. Barry came out within five minutes in a towel and headed straight up to the room and got dressed, sat back down next to her after dressed in a formal attire that he had taken from the shelter.
Barry's uniform was a black polo shirt that had Vault 01 Overseeyer and was also wearing black blue jeans.
Knock Knock
"Well its game time Chrysalis." I got up and answered the door, and there they stood, Celestia, Luna, and Twilight?
"Hello Barry are you and Chrysalis ready?" Luna said happily.
Hello Barry, I hope you don't mind that Twilight comes along," Celestia said.
"No problem, Let me get Chrysalis and we will begin. " I went in and got Chrysalis and we all went towards the door of the shelter. I raised my hand and my magic started to flow as I removed the wards off of the door.
"Now I must tell you all the one rule. Do not use magic, or you will set off the radiation alarms and the base will become sealed and lower itself back into the earth..." I saw Twilights eyes widened .
"What is radiation?" Asked Twilight.
"Well Twilight, radiation is well, its hard to explain but back in my time we tried everything to prevent radiation from touching us, because in certain amount of doses it will poison us and we will die. Don't even ask me how magic sets off the alarms, because I don't fully understand myself."
"Ok," said Twiight.
All three ponies nodded and then Barry opened up the door.
"Ladies first." Twilight giggled and the four ponies entered. "This room right here is the Overseeyer's office, and the Overseeyer , was the person who ran the whole facility.
"So this would be where Celestia and Luna would be if they were humans when the facility was being used? Said Twilight.
"You are correct Twilight."
Luna was looking at some of the notes that were laid out on the desk, while Celestia and Twilight listened to what Barry was saying. Chrysalis sat in the Overseeyer's chair to let her legs rest.
"So Barry, this place was like a sanctuary, pace of refuge, am I correct?" Celestia asked.
"Yes, you are correct."
They continued down the hall and stopped at the junction in the end of the hall. To the Left was the Reactor and to the right was Kitchen, Mess hall Living arrangements and Lab. (I took the time to remove the cyro label off the wall and make it like it was never there.)
"Ok to our left is the reactor that powers this facility, I would like to go in but we can't due to a possible of an radiation leak." (There was no way I was going to let them in there.)
"AWWW," Twilight wined , but Celestia quickly stopped her with a hoof to the side.
Luna walked in amazement.
"So there is no magic at all in this facility," Celestia asked?
"Yes, there is no magic, we humans didn't have the power to harness magic like you guys do. We had technology that allowed us to do many things." I told them about a little of it, they could wait till they got to the library.
"Next in our stop are the living arrangements, but I prefer to just say apartments. " I had the doors already open so they could look in each of them.
"Wow, these are some small rooms," Luna said as she climbed on top of the bed. "Hey this is very nice." Barry laughed as Luna tried to sleep on the queen sized mattress.
"Sister , please stop playing around and take this seriously."
"Its ok Celestia, let Luna have some fun, after all, I can make the bed later again. Next is the mess hall for lunch, Now I know you have these all the time since your herbivores, but this which we are about to eat are the original vegetables from my time, grown from hard work and sweat and not magic."
As they each took a seat in the mess hall, I brought them each a large salad, with all the fillings and then a varity of dressings. (I had no intentions to tell them about the gardening sector behind the kitchen back doors. )
As we all sat down, I got each pony a Pepsi out of the bucket of Ice that was on the table and opened it for them and we ate and drank the soda. Luna took a sip of hers and then chugged the soda down with a few big gulps, Celestia looked at her as she released a huge BURRRPPP.
"LUNA."
"Excuse me," Luna said blushing. "Barry, you said that this is the original vegetables from your time?"
"Yes Luna, these haven't evolved in 7000 years." I was glad they were enjoying themselves.
After lunch Barry showed them the medical office, labs and the Library, which Twilight pulled out a old book and started to read it....
"Barry this is simply amazing, your library has thousands of years worth of knowledge," Twilight said as she started reading.
I saw Celestia looking at the bookshelf that I moved to cover the Cyro door, I was starting to get a little nervous, (not showing it so I wouldn't get discovered) Luna looked at a few books.
"And I've saved the last room for last, the armory. Didn't think that this facility would be able to defend itself?" I noticed Luna wispier something to her sister and I could guess what it was about.
I explained how they operated but never shot them, because anything can happen over the course of 7000 years. After that I let them answer any questions they wanted. And of course Twilight asked if she could take some of the books to the library and read them and I agreed, I wasn't going to read them anytime soon. After that the tour was over, and we all headed back up to the surface. The sun was setting.
"Thank you Barry for the tour, we will be in touch," Celestia said. Luna gave Barry a hug and she and her sister vanished into thin air.
Twilight took some of the books from the facility library, with of course Barry's permission.
As Twilight went home Barry and Chrysalis went inside, Barry made her favorite dish for dinner.
"Barry you didn't have to make this for me, I would be happy with with just a simple daisy sandwich." Kissed his cheek and started to eat the meal he had repaired while he went and took a shower.
After I took A shower, I sat next to Chrysalis who was now laying on the bed. "Tired sweetie?"
"No not really, my hooves just hurt from walking and carrying our twins." I felt Barry put his hand around me.
"I'm sorry sweetie, anything I can do to make you feel any better?"
"No Barry, I'm good, all I need is to stay off my hooves for a while and I'll be alright." I took Barry's and held him tightly. "So any ideas for a names?"I looked at him.
"I think I'd like to have something both human and changeling name.... what do you think?"
"I think that's an excellent idea." Patted him on his back. "Good night love, tomorrow we shall plan our wedding." I closed my eyes as Barry shut the lights off.
"Night Chrysalis and sleep tight," I got under the covers and laid next to her and feel asleep.
Throughout the night Barry had reoccurring nightmares , that something was disturbed in the facility and the base went into total lockdown with HALON systems Activated....
Author's Note
Halon systems displaces oxygen and is someone is caught in the room where it is activated they got seconds before they can suffocate.
Any Ideas where this will lead too?
