One Human, Different Paths 'Dark Saga'
Nightmares
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"WAKE UP!" was a sound heard from a close distance. Rhoe was slightly disturbed by this sound as he slowly woke up. His 'sleeping mode' was still affecting him and the voice seemed to help. Regaining a somewhat clear vision, Rhoe looked to where did this sound came from.
For his surprise, it was none other than Twilight (DUN DUND DUUUUUUUUUN).There was nothing he could do about it, Twilight was in front of him and in the same stage he saw her last time at the library.
"So, you thought I would forget what happened yesterday?" said Twilight. "I read in a book that men usually hide when they want someone to forget about them, which I hope you didn't try to do that."
"What? Nooo~, of course not! Why-why-why-why would why I do that?" he stuttered as she was penetrating his soul with her flaming eyes.
"OH REALLY? THEN WHY IS THAT YOU DIDN'T RETURN HOME LAST NIGHT!?", her voice was still as fierce as you could remember.
"Noo~, there an explanation you see.... " he said looking for a slip of that situation.
"You got 5 seconds." ordered Twilight burning with fury.
"5 Seconds for what?"
"1, 2-" started counting Twilight showing him the counting fingers in his face.
"Oh shit! OK, okokokokok, I can explain!"
"3, 4!"
"Okay, before you turn me into ashes, let me-". Too late. Everything went black. Out of nowhere, Rhoe thought that he DID die. However, he was still aware of his surroundings.
"Huh?" he thought, "What the fuck? I'm dead, but still alive? WHAT KIND OF JOKE IS THIS?"
Returning to his senses, he noticed a small glowing light coming from a distance. With nothing better in hands- wait. Did you still have your bracelets? As he checked his arms, they were gone.
"AW CMON! THIS IS SO UNFAIR! ....Man, I lost my only memory of my family....".
Sighing at the only possible conclusion for his life's reality, he moved forward to the glowing light. Each step seemed endless and the light slowly grew until it dissapeared from sight. Not that it mattered, he looked around expecting for something to change. Huh, typical. Nothing happened. Rhoe stood still like nothing mattered anymore (Geez, what an Emo). Things looked grim to his luck and darkness was his only companion.
"Great, now what I'm supposed to do?" he thought in a last attempt to have one last hope. Silence. Nothing else.
"...Perfect." you thought. "I'm dead, and wandering between life and death. What else? A monster chasing me?"
'YOU WISH YOU HAVEN'T SAID THAT...'
As Rhoe stood still, terrified of the sudden change, he slowly turned to the voice's source. A shapeless beast was staring at him with his sharp, deadly eyes. Its claws were awfully sharp and he could sense a huge amount bloodlust coming from the beast. Rhoe kept staring at the monster for a whole minute before he spoke up. "WHAT'S THE MATTER? IS SOMETHING STUCK IN MY FACE? HAHAHA..."
His whole body froze. Something like this doesn't show up just like that expect to accept like a normal thing, considering the fact of his recent death. Instinctively, his first movement was to run away, as far as possible. The beast didn't waste any time and started chasing him. The whole daily life he had in Ponyville helped him gain more stamina and run longer distances, but that wasn't enough to lose the beast.
As Rhoe kept running for his life (That is, if he had one to begin with), the beast cut the distance shorter and shorter.
"WHERE ARE YOU GOING? ARE YOU AFRAID OR SOMETHING? HAHAHAHA!" or "IT'S USELESS! YOU CAN'T ESCAPE FROM ME!" were some of the comments made while chasing him.
"Everything was black, everything was gone, every hope was gone, so why do you keep running?" he thought to himself like some sort of 2nd conciousness. "There was nothing to be afraid of, he is just a monster, what else?" he thought as he slowed down a bit.
"I'm not running anymore..." Rhoe said as he completely stopped. The beast stopped as well, curious of his sudden stop. Turning face to face to the beast, he faced him without worrying about the consequences of his actions.
"SO? WHAT'S THE MATTER?" yelled Rhoe as he stood up against the beast, "YOU AREN'T GONNA DO SOMETHING? BRING IT! I DON'T CARE! YOU DON'T SCARE ME! YOU PIECE OF SHIT!"
"Woah, chill out bro."
"NO, I WON'T! AND I'M NOT YOUR BRO!"
"Look, I don't want any trouble-"
"I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR PROBLEMS, ASSHOLE! NOTHING MATTERS ANYWAY! I'M DEAD AND I LOST EVERYTHING!" he said letting his anger take control of his mind.
Slowly, he shouted again, "GET. THE HELL. OUT OF. MY SIGHT."
"Okay, okay! Take it easy!" said the beast as he slowly backed off, "FINE, I'll leave. Next time you won't be so lucky punk."
"IF I EVER SEE YOU AGAIN, YOU BETTER WATCH OUT! I'M NOT IN THE FUCKING MOOD!" Rhoe shouted as the beast dissapeared from sight. As he calmed down, Rhoe turned his back to where the beast fled and walk a few more meters before something spoke up.
"Well done, Rhoe... my sister was true of thy strength, you have overcome the challenge."
"AW CMON!" Rhoe screamed while turning to see the incoming sound location, "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT? I'M NOT IN THE 'NICE-TO-MEET-YOU, OH-IT'S-A-PLEASURE' MOOD!".
With that said, you looked everywhere, and no one was around. This fact was astonishing as Rhoe thought he were hearing things. Some dead-shit stuff, was his initial thought. One thing didn't change though. His anger. He was still angry and it didn't go away that easily. As ironic as this may seem, this made him even more angry.
Something, or someone was fueling his anger, like if they are doing it on purpose.
"GAH! I need to punch something reallly bad! I won't be avaiable to control myself if I stay like this.... GRAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" said Rhoe while grunting at the floor.
Somehow, a neon light popped up in a flash behind him. Turning around quickly to see what happened, he recognized a sandbag hanging just like in the gyms do. Without thinking, Rhoe launched himself towards it and threw a heavy punch. The sandbag recoiled to the punch and returned to its original position right before he hit it again.
Punch, punch, kick, punch, uppercut, kick, kick, and forth, Rhoe kept hitting it. He lost count of how many times did he hit the sandbag, but it was obvious it was a lot of times.
The sandbag was ragged, broken and spilling it's insides to the floor. Panting after a lot effort, Rhoe fell to his knees and finally to his back. Never before has he done that. Rhoe have never displayed so much amount of power and anger in his life before. Not even to his brother's.... *sigh*.
"I gotta let go of that incident, it's in the past now."said Rhoe as he was getting up from the floor. He looked around just to make sure his sanity was at an appropiate level. Nothing out of the ordinary, no weird sights or voices.
"Good, at least I'm not crazy." he thought while trying to relax. HIs anger managed to drop considerably, until he was calm once more. One problem solved, another coming up. 5 minutes went by like nothing as Rhoe walked straight to God-knows-where.
"Hmmm, maybe I'm between life and death? The limbo perhaps?" he asked himself, grabbing his chin and trying to think of where could he be. "I've heard stories about it, but I never thought it would look like this."
Something felt different though. Rhoe knew he was there, and at the same time quite the opposite. It was something of mind-body connection stuff, but he couldn't simply figure it out.
"I don't know what is going on, maybe I don't want to know," sais Rhoe as he stopped and threw his arms in the air desperately, "HEY LOOK AT ME! I'M TALKING TO MYSELF!"
"No you are not."
You got startled by the voice you just heard. It wasn't the same voice as before, but definitely came from you. "Huh? Who is there?" you said looking around hoping it wasn't your imagination playing a dirty trick on you.
"Who else? I'm you."
"That doesn't make sense at all"
"Your photos from kindergarden dressed as a girl do make sense?" said the unknown voice.
"YOU STAY AWAY FROM THAT. I WAS GOING THROUGH A STAGE AND- .....wait, how did you-"
"I already told you, I'm you."
"Nope. Still doesn't make sense."
"*sigh*. Fine, let me show you." With that said, your left hand by raised out of your control of your body. Of course, this scared the hell out of you, but then you remembered anything is possible here.
"Convinced?" asked the unknown voice
"...Maybe."
"Just so you know, I'm your 2nd conciousness. You can call me Rakin."
"2nd conciousness? Rakin? ....Yup, I have gone crazy~! AND WHY DO YOU SOUND LIKE DEADPOOL'S BRAIN." you said as you imitated a silly ballet move.
"You are not crazy, you just finally woke me with all that anger you released back there."
"But, when did you-"
"Please understand this is not the time for that" said Rakin persuading Rhoe to avoid that conversation.
"...*sigh* Fine, you win. I won't ask. But you are telling me where do you come from when I get out of here, that is if I- I mean- WE get out of here."
"Deal?" asked Rhoe.
"Deal." agreed Rakin.
"Now, go on."
"Good, because there is no time to explain all of it."
"What's it?"
"I wish you didn't ask. I was hoping to avoid the topic, but-" explained Rakin
"Just say it."
"Don't say I warned you. This is a dream. The incident about Twilight and everything blacking out? That was part of the dream."
"Wait a moment, this is a dream? So that means I'm not dead?" asked Rhoe.
"Well, your body is still breathing, but it looks like if you went into some sort of coma in the real world." explained Rakin.
Rhoe's mind stopped in midway as he tried to process what he just heard. Soon after, he snapped out of his world, "WHAT. THE. FUCK. SERIOUSLY?"
"Seriously."
"Great! Now I'm in some sort of coma-" complained Rhoe.
"You are in a dream."
"YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH."
"I don't have a mouth."
"Erh- You- You... Shut up."
"I don't want to." said Rakin without problem.
"Listen, I WANT TO WAKE UP. Help a bro out, will ya? Unless you want to be stuck with for eternity." said Rhoe while he looked like he was talking to the air. Huh, weird.
"...You got a point."
"Did somebody say point?" said another unknown voice.
"Great, this guy again." said Rakin as he sounded annoyed of this new presence to Rhoe.
"Who is this 'guy'?" asked Rhoe
"Look below. Your pants to be exact." aimed Rakin with his order. Wait, aimed? I mean, he told him. Yeah, let's go with that.
"Huh? What? I only see my boner- wait, you mean that voice was...!?"
"The one and only, Zao!" said the raging boner.
"WHAT THE HELL!? WHO SAID COPYING DEADPOOL WAS A BRIGHT IDEA!?" yelled Rhoe to the air.
"Who is Deadpool?" asked Zao.
"He is- ....nevermind. Why am I talking to my dick!?"
"He is just too direct. Ignore him and you'll be fine."
"Hey, that's cruel!" complained Zao.
"GUYS!" said Rhoe as both conciousness remained silent. "Now is not the time for that! We need to get out of here!"
"Hmm, agree. It's best for us to look for an exit. Now if you please, follow my instructions."
"I got a better idea! Let's find a girl, AND BANG HER!"
"...Is this what you meant by 'ignore'?" asked Rhoe.
"What else would I mean?" said Rakin.
"Anyways, there is a responsible for this dream-coma situation" added Rakin.
"And you know who is that?" asked Rhoe hoping for a solution to this problem.
"I haven't seen her, nor have you. But her name is Princess Luna."
Just like, Rhoe's memory ticked at lightspeed the second he heard the name Luna. He inmediately remembered that Twilight mentioned her. She was, according to what he managed to picture again from the conversation of Twilight (Yes, that same fight), and rememebered she is Princess Celestia's little sister. Why would she do this? She isn't her evil sister, is she? No, the mane 6 told Rhoe she wasn't evil.... but there was a time where she banished to the moon because of-
Look at me, I'm trying to explain the same freaking shit from the first episode. You know what? Screw it. Let's do a fast forward like we have never done before. ROLE IT!

....Okay, that was perfect. Flawless, my talents have no boundaries. I'm a freaking genius. Point given, point received. I'm done. Enjoy the rest of the story!
"...Okay, the author seems to have a mental breakdown. Should we help him?" request Rhoe.
"Why should we? He did all that on his own." explained Rakin.
"APPLES!" said Zao.
"Gosh, I want to get out! Rakin!" called out Rhoe.
"What is it?"
"Do you know where to find Princess Luna?" asked Rhoe.
"I'm afraid not. But if she is the one causing all these troubles, she should be nearby." deduced Rakin.
"Instead of looking for her, how about calling her out? That might save hours of looking and maybe our lives if that's on the line." added Rakin.
"I guess it's a shot worth giving.", Rhoe stood still for a whole minute thinking what to say exactly without looking too threating. As time flew, Rakin slowly grew impatient. Zao was thinking of Kama Sutra just in case you were wondering what happened to him. Position 69. Yup. Google it.
"So? What are you waiting for? Call her." ordered Rakin.
"It's not that easy, you know? I can't just go and yell something like: "OH PRINCESS LUNA, PLEASE COME OUT!" or what Zao would say: 'OH PLEASE PRINCESS LUNA, TAKE ME AND DO WHATEVER YOU PLEASE WITH ME!'" insisted Rhoe.
"One's gotta know how to-". BOOM. An ass to the face. That's all what Rhoe saw before everything went black. He was still concious of everything, though. If he was concious, why is everything dark all of the sudden?
"Guys?" thought Rhoe.
"Yes, Rhoe?" both answered.
"Do you have any idea of what just happened?"
"I'm as blind as you are."
"I see clearly, and I like what I see!" said Zao with excitement.
"...Zao?" thought Rhoe as he touched something very soft near his face.
"What's up?"
"Who or what is sitting in my face?"
"Hmm, looks like a person to me."
"Be more specific."
"Umm... that person has blue-night mane."
"What else?" said Rhoe without emotion.
"That person is very attractive."
"That doesn't help." complained Rakin.
"Whoever it is seems to enjoy it."
"ZAO, FOCUS. IS THAT PERSON A HE OR A SHE!?" ordered Rhoe as he grew impatiently of who or what was on top of him.
"Hmm..."
"Well!?" asked Rhoe.
"It's a he!"
"OH GOD." said Rakin with fear.
"NOPE! I was wrong! It's a she!" cleared Zao.
"Thou really believe that thy gender is a man!?" said the guy. Wait, is he a guy? Or a female? Meh, lost interest.
"OMHTHNANKGHSOD!" said Rhoe with the ass on his face.
"Don't do that!" said the female. Looks like she enjoyed that. Was it because it felt like a vibration? Rhoe is absolutely clueless in this situation.
"Wait, it's a female?" asked Rakin.
"Apparently" thought Rhoe.
"Could it be Princess Luna?" informed Rakin, "Think about it, there is no one else but you and her in the dream, she was hidden all the time, and now a female shows up with her 'butt' sticked to your face?"
"Oh shit. I have a royal ass in my face" thought Rhoe
"SCORE!" intervened Zao.
Poking her to avoid touching her ass, he tried to get her attention. Fortunately, she got slightly up just to let Rhoe speak.
"Umm, you are Princess Luna?" asked Rhoe.
"Indeed" said Luna.
"Would you mind... you know..." stuttered Rhoe as he looked away from her ass.
"Yes?"
Rhoe sighed at closed his eyes the moment he spoke up, "CAN YOU PLEASE GET OFF OF ME?"
"Hmm... No."
"Eh?"
With that said, Luna quickly sat on his face again. Rhoe was looking for a way to remove her, but it seemed unless. He knew that Zao would try to do something if he stayed like this. Or worse, she would discover the boner he has. Although it may seem that she already found out.
"Well, someone is happy."
"MHHMMHPH!" (OH MY GOD SHE NOTICED!)
"You don't need to say anything. Everything is clear."
"MMPH!?" (IT IS!?)
"Now, to take care of your uneasiness~"
"MMMPHMPH!!!" (OH HOLY SHIT!!!)
"Dude, what's the problem!? You are gonna get it! Are you gay or something!?" said Zao trying to comprehend Rhoe's freak out.
"Don't you get it!? I'm still a virgin! I'm freaking out because I don't know what the fuck to do! Plus, it's indecent!"
"............ Wow. That's the reason why we never banged in high school. I AM DISSAPOINT." complained Zao.
"I don't need your dissapoint! I need an exit of this situation! I'm not ready!", however, Luna was one step ahead as she proceeded to pull his pants.
"MMPH!" (SHIT!)
"HI!"
"Okay Rhoe. Pull yourself together. You are gonna do what you never have done before. BE PREPARED LUNA. I've got you now!". Indeed, she was caught off guard as he grabbed her behind and squeezed her butt cheeks, letting out a squeak from Luna. He later-
WHOA WHOA WHOA, HOLD ON A MINUTE. I'M NOT DOING A CLOP SCENE! NO SEX, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! OFF-LIMITS! THIS IS NOT WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR! Did you actually believe I would add a clop/sex scene without saying a thing? OVER MY DEAD BODY. No, no seriously, because who gives 2 birds and an oil? I surely don't. (I ACTUALLY DO. A LOT.) The point is I'm NOT doing a CLOP/SEX SCENE. Ever. ....For now. BUT ANYWAYS. Rhoe didn't do exactly you guys think he did. I'll leave up to your imagination. I'm too lazy to do it for you. ...................ANNNNNDDDD, It's over. You're welcome.
After Rhoe avoided the clop/sex scene, both sat and an awkward silence remained. Luna was looking for the words to apologize for such behavior, not that it bothered Rhoe that much. In an attempt to break the silence, Rhoe spoke.
"....Where did you get the bunny suit?" asked Rhoe whose innocence just went overboard.
"My sister's... closet...." answered Luna.
"Huh. So that's where you got it."
"Are you sure this is want the readers want?" asked Rakin
"Who?"
"Nevermind." said Rakin as Rhoe was thinking what happened.
"WHAT ABOUT ME!? I WAS FINALLY GONNA GET SOME ACTION FOR THE FIRST TIME! Bunch of morons, I'm out." said Zao as he dissapeared from sight. Yes, the boner was gone. It's a defeat for the virgins.
"So.... Luna?"
"Yes, Rhoe?"
"Can I ask you what happened? Why did you brought me here?" interrogated Rhoe.
"....I'm afraid I can't tell you." revealed Luna as she turned her head towards Rhoe.
"....Hm. I should have known." complained Rhoe, "You are just like your sister. She won't tell me."
"I'm sorry Rhoe, but to tell you what is your purpose is to prevent you from living. We don't want that for you." explained Luna. Her sweet voice managed to calm down a bit the tension in the situation. Rhoe sighed once again and spoke, this time to discover something unusual in his time on the coma.
"Luna, I have to ask you something. Something about a mystery in my dream."
"I'll see what I can do. What's the problem?"
"You see, there was a monster chasing me a while ago."
"Oh, that..." said Luna as she showed a concerned expression towards Rhoe.
"I was wondering, what was that?"
"It's your evil side. All of your negativity. A dark you."
"SAY WHAT.", shocked by this, Rhoe jumped back a few inches as he was trying to understand her answer. That is his evil side? Why does it looks like a beast? Why-, and when did-, but-. *sigh*.
"Please, I know you are confused about this, but it was something you needed to do." clarified Luna as she was trying to make Rhoe understand.
Rhoe gave up and accepted the truth. "I understand Princess. Thanks for telling me this. This makes everything more clear."
"I'm relieved to hear that from you." replied Luna as both got up from the floor.
"....One thing still bothers me." added Rhoe
"What is that?"
"HOW DID YOU SHOW UP!? I DON'T GET IT.". Oh right, Rhoe doesn't know that much about Princess Luna, so he doesn't have a clue she can control dreams and even enter these particular dreams. All he knew was she was both responsible for the dream and Princess Celestia's sister. Luna, intrigued by his question, was thinking why he didn't know such obvious thing.
Erasing any kind of different thought in her mind, she started explaining all of her capabilities. The Nightmare Moon incident, the dream control, the moon's responsability, everything she knew and could do. Rhoe was stunned at the huge amount of information he was unaware of. Still processing the information, he sat down to relax a bit.
"So, that's everything you should know about me."
"Should?"
"Okay, that's everything about me." clarified Luna.
"Man, it is a bit hard to digest. Dream control? Moon control? Geez, what else is there? Blood-bending?"
"Actually..." Luna got close to Rhoe's ear whispering some sort of message. After she backed off a bit, Rhoe threw his arms in the air
yelling: "AW CMON!"
"It's magic in the end. There is nothing impossible in Equestria."
"Yeah, yeah. I've heard that before."
"You have?"
"Yes, but not here. A guy obsessed with ponies said that before. I guess I knew him from a channel in Youtube called ScrewAttack where they got their info acoording to him. Funny pic though."
As Rhoe explained to her the source of his information, Luna simply stared in an absolute turmoil trying to understand at least one single word coming out of his mouth. Rhoe stopped talking as soon as he realized Luna didn't understand a darn thing he was talking about.
"Oh, sorry. I got lost in my past. I'm sorry for bothering you." apologized Rhoe
Luna quickly snapped and answered back. "Do not worry Rhoe, I'm aware of your position. And your past. All of it. Including your brother's death."
Rhoe was shocked to this fact. He couldn't move, his whole body was frozen of the fear he had suffered that day. Suddenly, that fear turned into anger. "I'm sorry about your lost, I would also be destroyed if something happened to Celestia."
"Oh. You know about that. It doesn't matter anyway."
"Let me help you."
"You can't help me."
"I can make you get over it. Trust me."
"You don't know a thing. I'm not like you."
"Rhoe, stop struggling. I understand perfectly how you feel."
"Bullshit."
"Rhoe... your brother's death is the cause of all your nightmares I have seen. I can finish this. I just need your support."
As Luna spoke, Rhoe was at the burst of crying. His brother's death had a huge scar on his life and everytime he thought about it, he felt sad and angry at the same time. Holding back the tears, he spoke up. "...please... stop talking... I don't want to remember."
"But Rhoe, let me help you, please."
"Luna, please stop talking. I know you are royalty, but stop TALKING."
"Rhoe, please! Let me-"
"SHUT UP!" yelled Rhoe from the bottom of his heart as he bursted into tears.. Luna backed away a little, getting scared of a human's anger and sadness. As silly as it sounds, she got scared. Like, real scared. No joke, she was afraid. Of a guy whose only power came from brutal force and something else. She was capable of more. Luna hesitated and yelled back.
"YOU SHALL NOT SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT!"
"I WILL TALK ANY FUCKING WAY I LIKE TO!" said Rhoe stil with tears flowing on his face
"YOU FUCKING PRICK! YOU DO KNOW WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO!? I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU AND THIS IS HOW YOU PAY ME? YOU INSOLENT HUMAN!"
"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING TO? OBVIOUSLY YOU DON'T! TO NO ONE! I'M JUST A SPACE OF DUST IN THIS GODDAMMED UNIVERSE!" confessed Rhoe.
"OH REALLY!? SO YOU ARE A SPACE OF FUCKING DUST!?" said Luna as she repeated Rhoe's acual message.
"THAT'S RIGHT! I COULDN'T AVOID MY BROTHER'S DEATH AND I'M ALL ALONE IN THIS FREAKING PLACE YOU PEOPLE CALL HOME!"
"SO YOU FEEL RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR BROTHER'S DEATH!? DO YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE YOU ARE ALL ALONE!?" asked Luna.
"YES! YES, I DO! I'M A SCUM WHOSE LIFE IS WORTHLESS! WORTHLESS IN THE HUMAN WORLD, WORTHLESS HERE!"
"THEN LET ME DO SOMETHING TO PROVE YOU WRONG!"
"AND WHAT WOULD THAT BE!?" screamed Rhoe with all his heart.
"THIS!"
Luna dashed forward to his Rhoe as she lunged to him, knocking him down. Once he fell to the floor, Rhoe let out a mumble of pain and looked to where Luna had stayed after she lunged. All he saw was a pair of lips quickly encountering his. He remained still as Luna was kissing him. Rhoe struggled in the beggining, but he later submitted to the kiss. They both got in a deep-passionated kiss that lasted for 5 whole minutes. Soon when they finished their make-out, both were gasping for oxygen. They may have lasted that long, but everyone needed a break every once in a while.
Rhoe's face was crimson, blushing from the kiss he just had with another princess. And this time, he didn't mind. It's just what he needed. Rhoe thought he didn't need to feel loved by someone. His anger and guilt made him blind. He couldn't see what was in front of him. Thanks to Luna, that changed. He had a group of friends that loved him just the way he is. Rhoe Maybe he was really special. Maybe. Rhoe finally woke up, but his brother's death was still disturbing him.
"Perhaps I'll be avaiable to get over his death. Someday." thought Rhoe as he was catching his breath back. Gathering enough air, Luna spoke.
"I...we, my sister and I,do not want you to feel that way. We are here for you, and always be. Just say the word, and we will be there for you."
"I guess I better not call you when I'm having a bath, eh?" said Rhoe jokingly. Luna raised her eyebrow telling him that the joke had bad taste. Rhoe sighed and looked away.
"I guess you are right, I may not be alone, but it still hurts, you know?", he explained.
"I'm afraid that's something we are not capable of healing." explained Luna as she gave him a hug after he got up. "But we can help you get over it."
"Thanks, but I gotta do this alone." concluded Rhoe.
"...If that's your wish, we won't interfere. HOWEVER, if you can't handle it yourself, we shall and I MEAN IT, we shall interfere." warned Luna as she got closer to him.
"U-Um, sure thing! I-It's a deal... but aren't ya getting....", Rhoe thought it carefully, "close to me? I kinda like my own PERSONAL space..."
"Aww, what is the matter? Surely you aren't attracted to men, are you?"
"OF COURSE NOT! WHY WOULD YOU THINK OF THAT!? JEEZUS!"
"Jeezus?" said Luna thinking whether Rhoe had a mental breakdown, or he was just babbling random stuff.
"It's an expression of amazement and makes honor I guess? To the son of- ...I'm getting nowhere to your comprehension, am I?" asked Rhoe
"Certainly. But, I got to say, you are really funny sometimes Rhoe.". Rhoe had the smallest, diminutive embarrasment he has ever gotten in a while. The comment surely made a tiny blush appear in Rhoe's face.
"W-Well, I'm not sure what to say to that... I'm glad you think so." said Rhoe as he was scratching the back of his head.
"Oh man, I feel so embarrased right now. Darn it Luna, stop it already." he thought .
"....But, somehow, I feel that you are special, you know?" said Luna.
"Because I'm the only human in an anthro world surrounded by a 5:1 ratio poblation of females, who probably all of them are beautiful, in this Village?" he stated, "Nope, I'm not sure. What makes you think that?"
"Haha funny guy." said Luna sarcastically.
"Ha! I'm just messing with ya."
"Now, seriously. There is something about you that makes me..." Luna said that as she proceeded to grab his hand and place it in her chest, near her heart, "go crazy. A deep feeling, towards you." she added.
"U-Uh, Luna.... Maybe it's the heat? Yeah! It must be the heat!", Rhoe pulled his shirt sideways as an expression of heat. The movie style, or cartoon. "Sheesh! This place suddenly got hotter don't you think? How about some cooling? You can make it happen can you?"
"Rhoe... You and I know that is not going happen."
"Luna, I just met you some hours ago. It's not possible for you to fall for me. Logic can't do that. Love takes more than that. It takes a lot of time. I don't know how long have you and Celestia lived, but you know that as well." explained Rhoe.
"........"
"Look, I'm not rejecting you. Well, maybe I am, but.... The thing is, you can't possibly love me like that. I'm sorry."
"It's okay, I understand." said Luna as she looked down.
Rhoe felt like shit after seeing her reaction, he has never let down a woman before, and it felt awful. He waited for a break. Once he gathered guts to speak, he grabbed Luna's shoulders and made her look up.
"I'm sorry. Really."
"Rhoe, you don't have to-"
"No. Don't say a thing. I do not let down people and let them like that. I'm not like that." said Rhoe.
"Rhoe..."
"Listen, because I'm gonna say this once. Just ONCE. Okay?" Luna nodded.
Rhoe let a sigh go by right before he said this:
"Do what you want with me. If it makes you feel better, then I'm willing to do it."
Luna's heart exploded with happiness and sadness as well. He was willing to do ANYTHING with her as long as she desired to, but it wouldn't be the same. He is giving away his pride as a man just to make her feel better. It wasn't meant to be done with the intentions she had from a beggining. On the other hand, she had complete control over the situation, she had Rhoe's authorization, Luna wasn't going to let go of such an opportunity. Taking a bit of a time, she finally decided what to do.
"Thanks Rhoe. Although there is one thing I have in my mind~...."
Rhoe gulped, regretting a bit of what he said. "O-Okay, what is it?"
"I always wanted to feel loved..." requested Luna
"Aja.....But you have your sister and her friends, right?" Rhoe answered right back looking to avoid the situation he thought Luna wanted.
"Yeah, but I mean, a 'man love'."
"Oh boy"
"And since we are here-"
"Which you can suddenly end, but I don't see you doing that."
"....I want to feel loved by you."
"....ARE YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT ANYTHING ELSE? A MASSAGE? A PEDICURE? ANOTHER PART IN 'ONE HUMAN, DIFFERENT PATHS'?"
"Oh Rhoe, the writer already decided that."
"MOTHER FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU."
"So, can I?"
"Eh...kinda."
"CAN I?" said Luna with excitement as she jumped with glee.
"Well...." He got interrupted as Luna approached like SERIOUSLY close to him. He could feel her breathing, her heartbeat, and her face looked deeply passionate. Something told Rhoe this wasn't going to end yet. He gulped as they both stared at each other for a while. The heat of the situation was a Level 5 Heat Need For Speed style. Any sudden movement could even kill a fly. Then, the expected conclusion started to begin. Luna closed her eyes, and leaned forward. Rhoe knew this was going to happen and decided to submit to her wishes. Everything seemed to go as any event like this would go, if it weren't for one small detail..... THIS EVENT ISN'T GONNA HAPPEN. JOINK!
*POOF*
As much as you guys would like such scene, Luna isn't ready yet. I mean, do you have any idea of how easy would that go if destiny allowed it? The ideas for more chapters, just think about them! To explain better what REALLY happened, here you GO: The opportunity for an erotic, passionate dream (aka. Wet dream) made Luna's arousement go to extreme levels, cuz Rhoe has the touch for the ladies on Ponyville. Really, every mare who saw him felt sudden mating urges. Like, what the hell. Somewhere, in this very moment, a lot of stallions are grateful to him. Oops, getting out of the topic, sorry.
Her magic blew up and everything went back to normal. Sure, Luna went on a whole rampage that almost caused her to turn into Nightmare Moon. ALMOST. But it didn't. YET. So, to make it up, here's what happened next! See ya soon! - Ashardu.
'Don't worry Rhoe, we shall meet again. Keep dreaming and some day, I'll be back....'
Rhoe opened his eyes in a instant, sweating from the heat that he and Luna had some moments ago. Rhoe realized he is awake from the coma, just like he wished in the first place. Looking around, he deduced he was held in a hospital. The food supplies were injected through a tube attached to his forearm.
"Huh, so this is how a patient feels after a long time. Man, I feel like shit." he thought. With a great determination, he got up from his bed and sat up. He could see some ''GET BETTER SOON' ballons and flowers nearby him. As much as he wished to know who sent those gifts, he just closed his eyes and shook his head.
"Man, they sure care about me. Maybe I was wrong after all."
He took a deep breath, feeling the air in his lungs, and exhaled with great relief. Rhoe felt grateful after everything they had done for him. Well, all the ponies he has met had something to do with this. After all, he was the only human around. And lady-killer apparently. Why? There were a lot of letters next to him and each had a 'Thank you' of some sort. He was clueless to what they were thanking him for. And of course, we know why.
Grinning to the letters, Rhoe looked away only to find two mares near him. It was Twilight and Applejack. He was completely surprised to see them here. They must have fallen asleep while looking out for him. Twilight was resting in a sofa with a book on her hand and Applejack had her cowboy hat in her face as an attempt to fall asleep. Rhoe giggled a bit (Geez, that sounded like a girl), thinking how cute (boys' way) they looked. While trying to get in a more comfortable position, Rhoe looked at the mares with a grin before speaking.
"Well, I must be the luckiest guy in the world. Two girls waiting for me to wake up, especially in a coma!"
HIs comment made some effect on both of them. Struggling in their sudden awakening, they looked around for the source of the voice. Upon looking at Rhoe's awakening, their eyes shined with such intensity, he could see his own reflection in their pupils.
"RHOE, YOU ARE AWAKE!" both shouted as they got closer to him.
They hugged him, expressing very clear they were happy to see Rhoe just fine. He smiled at this and hugged them back. After a minute or two, they backed off, and stared at Rhoe with doubts on their minds. Twilight started.
"What happened to you!? You suddenly entered in a coma just like that!? What did you do!?" said Twilight desperately as she looked concerned about your health.
"That's right, hun'! What happened? Ya got all of us scared to death!" supported Applejack.
"Hey, hey! Easy! I just woke up! Go easy on me!"
"We can't! We were so worried about you!" replied Twilight, "Did someone did this to you? An accident happened? WHAT? TELL ME, WHAT HAPPENED?"
"Whoa Twilight! Calm down! It breaks me to see you like this!"
"But....I was so worried..."
"Don't worry... It's okay now..." he said gently as Rhoe continued hugging her.
"Oh... I *sniff* I was scared...."
"Please, Rhoe.... Don't ever do that to again..." said Applejack looking down still hugging him.
"Okay... I'll be more careful." Rhoe confirmed, looking away, embarrassed of what he did.
"Promise?" asked Applejack.
".........."
"Rhoe?" called out Twilight.
"..... Okay. I promise," he promised as he gave a smile to both of them.
"Good. Feeling better already?" wondered Applejack as she let you go, "Ah can see th't Twilight is still attach'd t' yah".
"Yea, I'm a tough bone to break. It's gonna take more than a coma to take me down." he joked. The three let a nervous laugh before the silence came.
Suddenly, a thought came to his mind. 'Usually comas take a long time to recover. I wonder how long was I out? It must have been short. Luna better had made them short.'
"Applejack?" called Rhoe.
"Uh? What is it?"
"I must have been out due to the coma, right? Some time must have passed by now, ain't it?"
"Oh. Yeah, yah were out fer a lon' time. Thankfully, it wasn't years." explained Applejack as she crossed her arms.
"OH THANK GOD." he shouted in relief. "So, can you explain how long was I out?"
"Sugarcube" said Applejack as she already calmed down, "Yah do remember where were ya right before wakin' up? Before th' coma ah mean."
"....Oh! You mean at the barn?"
"Yes, do ya wanna know how lon' yah been out?"'
"Um, sure. Wasn't very long right?"
"Ya were out for 2 whole weeks."
A awkward silence proceeded to enter the room. The camera angle was fixed as anime do, from the ceiling. You know what I mean. Andddddddddddddddd, here comes the typical answer.
"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?" Rhoe yelled as he stared to Applejack with might.
"It's the truth, ah can't lie anyways." responded Applejack as she shrugged.
"DAMN YOU LUNA! YOU MADE ME LOSE TWO WHOLE WEEKS!"
"LUNA!?" both asked with shock.
"OH SHIT."
"Rhoe..." whispered Twilight leaning her head until she could see the floor. "Is that why you had a.... 'Man's excitement' every now and then!?". Jugding by her voice tone, she seemed extremely pissed.
"'Man's excitement'?, what are you talki-", as Rhoe stopped talking, he felt something hard between his legs. As he thought exactly what was it, he began to guess it was his *eherm* friend Zao alive and happy, kicking in already without his authorization (Wait, does he even need authorization?).
".......Hehe?"
"Sugarcube, ya have a minute to explain. Starting NOW."
Rhoe felt death approaching, slowly crawling to take you away. Moving his arms trying to explain, Rhoe talked.
"Funny story, you see!? Look I was in a dream and everything was black-"
"TICK" said Twilight.
"TOCK" finished Applejack.
"ANDAMONSTERCHASEDME!"
"Nice try, but that ain't gonna help ya!" threatened Applejack.
"OK OK! Umm..."
"The clock is ticking~! 30 seconds left!"
"SHITSHITSHITSHIT! Okay, let me- ummm, I can- Before you uhh- This is a...urgh..."
"Oops! Time's out! Ready for the punishment?" both said getting ready to do 'God knows what' to a guy who just woke up from a coma.
"OKAYOKAY! I'll say it!"
"SO?"
".......I.." Twilight and Applejack were expecting the answer right away, but holding it in made them go crazy for the suspense. In a normal way.
"Yes?"
"I....."
"YES?"
"I got kicked by Applejack before getting into the coma!"
"WHAT!?" both yelled as they stepped back a bit.
'You are so dead after this.' he thought. "Yeah! That's right! Applejack knocked me out for good in the face! And that ain't a lie!"
"It's true!?" asked Twilight with confusement.
Applejack did a death-stare at him saying 'YOU ARE SO DEAD AFTER THIS.'. Heh, ain't that the same thing both thought. She quickly changed her face's expression before focusing on Twilight "Well, it is kinda true..."
"You know that could have been the reason why Rhoe went into a coma!?"
"Yeah, Ah know it, but-"
"No buts! You got to measure your strength! Here,"said Twilight as she proceeded to pull out a book out of her bag with the title 'Pony Anatomy', "I have a book about anatomy on mares that I always carry around just in case."
"Why would you keep something like that?" he asked.
"....Reasons."
"Look, Twilight, Ah know-"
"No. You're gonna stay here and listen to this. Don't you dare to leave like Rainbow would."
"Urgh, fine." Applejack expressed annoyed. As Rhoe rested back into the bed snickering to the unexpected situation, Applejack stood still and listen to the whole book that day. Night-time came faster than expected.
Rjhoe waved good-bye as both girls ("Note to self: Applejack hates me now.") and they left out of sight. Rhoe was gonna go back home after a day in the hospital and go back to your 'normal' daily routine.
"Heh" he thought, "Maybe this is not so bad. I could get used to this life style."
With that in mind and smiling as he got comfortable, Rhoe fell asleep. 'Maybe I do have a reason to live. Hehe, thanks Luna.' were his last thoughts before everything went black.
"You're welcomed. And tonight, I'm not letting you sleep quietly." said a familiar voice before losing to the sleep's attack.
"GIVE ME A BREAK!"
And with that, Rhoe finally fell asleep. A whole new day was waiting for you tomorrow. Good night, buddy.
