Shadow, Love and Pride

The New Roommate

“Twilight please! Let me explain.” Kido got in Twilight's way and knelt to be at eye level.

Twilight took a deep breath. “Okay. What is she doing back?”

“I promised that if she came back in peace I would offer my friendship.” Kido then proceeded to tell her about how they found Bellz sick and near death at the station and how he helped her.

“So she's been here a while now?”

“Like two days.”

“Why are you telling me this now? I thought we agreed to rely on each other?”

“Twilight I needed to know her intentions first without setting a panic. Bellz wishes to stay...”

“WHAT!!!?”

“She wants to start a new life. But she attacked the town, I would have to send her away. I won't have to arrest her if you forgive her and don't press charges.”

“Can you trust her?” Twilight was in utter disbelief.

“If she wished revenge upon me or the town she would have return to her clan to plan a full on attack. Twilight there is a clan of Bat Witches like her, more powerful in fact.”

“If this is true. Why did only she attack?”

“My guess is that they still fear the princesses magic, Bellz told me her objective was to prove she could acquire immunity to magic like me. But she didn't do it, she is not immune. She was a test subject.”

“So this is enough for you to trust her?”

“Yes. She is willing to follow my orders and do as I ask, to be in service to the guard as punishment.”

Twilight took a deep breath. “I'll do it. I'll forgive her. But I'm only doing it for you.”

Kido smiled. “You're amazing Twilight.” He hugged her. He realized ponies were looking and let go. “And about the other stuff...” He looked into her eyes. “I love you Twilight.”

“You do?” He nodded. “YAY!!!” She hugged him, putting her hooves around his neck. “Okay...” She let go. “But what was up with her with that whole “wanting to listen to pony on wolf action”?”

“Oh she's just a slut.”

Twilight gave her new boyfriend a confused look. “And she'll be living with you?”

“Yeah... Why?”

She decided to drop the subject for now. “Never mind. Let's go.” They headed to the station once again. Inside Derpy and Bellz were talking. Bellz was wearing a white tank top and jeans.

“So you've seriously never been laid? How old are you?” Bellz asked Derpy.

“I'm seventeen, And I really don't wanna talk about this.” Derpy responded.

“Hey that's cool. If you ever need help I'm available.”

“For what?” Derpy got sudden clarity about Bellz meant. “But I'm a girl!”

“And a pony. Hey I don't mind.”

“You're weirder than Wolfboss.”

Kido was actually amused by the conversation and stayed quiet. Twilight nudge him.

“Bellz, if you please my dear.” Kido called Bellz. She walked to get closer.

“Hey what's with all this “my dear” shit? I swore servitude to you my lord.” She bowed to Kido. “I'm yours to do whatever you want. Can't wait to see what this leads to tonight.”

“By the Goddess Bellz. You are to follow my orders in service to the guard for your crimes, you will fight defending the residents of Ponyville. That is your punishment.”

“Hey feel free to punish me all you want?” She gave a sly smile.

“Bellz please do what I asked concerning Twilight.”

“Oh hey there.” Bellz looked to Twilight. Twilight didn't seem scared but was obviously nervous.

Bellz stood only four feet tall and had a petite figure. Gray skin, big blue eyes and black hair. In a different light she'd be a perfect beautiful lady. Sadly, her lustful and volatile nature made her undesirable by many.

“Listen. Your friend here saved my life and he's been a good to me despite... well everything. I am sorry for attacking you personally and your town. I hope to be able to make amends serving the guard.” She put one of her clawed hands forward in peace.

“Yeah... He has a way with people.” Twilight looked to Kido, then at Bellz and put her hoof to shake. “Well I actually have to go. Kido can I see you tonight?”

“Of course.” Twilight then left, praying she made the right call forgiving Bellz.

Bellz got close to Kido who was blankly looking at the door and whispered. “She's upset you know? But she'll forgive you. She really likes you boss.”

“I hope.” He looked to the new member of the station. “Are you going to start calling me boss as well?” He laughed.

“Oh if you don't like that one I can call you master. Or maybe daddy.” She walked to Derpy's desk putting her hands on it while shaking her bottom. “Daddy I've been a naughty girl.”

“By Celestia's grace Bellz!” Derpy complained.

“Girls. I'm gonna go upstairs and change into my patrol clothes. Derpy teach Bellz the filing system and the holding area.” Kido ordered.

“Right wolfboss.” Derpy saluted.

“You sound excited. You gonna handcuff me back there?” Bellz said teasing.

Kido took a deep breath and headed upstairs while his deputy's argued. No more than five minutes passed when he came running down stairs screaming in horror.  The girls were both stunned.

“BELLZ WHAT THE HELL!?” Kido yelled, a horrified look on his face.

“What?” Bellz casually asked.

“The stain on my hammock.”

“What about it?”

“It's not food, it's not juice... what is it!?”

“Well I didn't wanna read or listen to music on the radio sometimes and you didn't have the only two good games on the Playstation 3. So I did something fun and your hammock is really warm, comfy and it smells like you.”

“Wait... I don't get it. If you caused the stain and it wasn't food or juice...” Derpy got pensive.

“You can do it. Think long and hard.” Bellz teased.

Derpy gasped. “Oh by Celestia. EEWW! EW! EW! My bed is right next to the hammock.” She covered her eyes with her hooves. Bellz laughed.

“You got slut all over my hammock!” Kido complained.

“What's a slut?” Derpy asked.

“She is.” Kido pointed at Bellz.

“Oh come on boss. Was just a little fun. No harm done.” Bellz said to Kido.

“Very well. I will admit that you were locked up there for a while. I'll just go get dressed now.” Kido started heading to the door.

“Hey where will I sleep now that I'm better?”

“In my hammock.”

“Next to you?”

“NO! It's yours to keep.”
