“That…hurts…”

Flying and falling around…

Of course that would hurt!

I mean, Come on!

Several times my arms had to absorb the damage every time I impacted into a wall or the floor, but only to protect my face the rest of my body had to fend for itself. However there was a quote for inspire people to keep going; I’m kinda surprised that I had to literally applied to my situation.

I forgot the exact words but it was something like this, ‘If you fall once, then you must get up twice.’

Interesting…

Look at me, talking about inspiration.

Anyways…

My room is ruined by that stupid alicorn.

Everything is disorganized, even my bed is messy; thought it was already messy since I was PEACEFULLY sleeping there.

My closet has fallen, the mirrors are shattered; some furniture is broken to pieces since I was smashed on them mind you.

It seems that she didn’t hold back this time.

And I believed that this time she was going to kill me; I mean if somebody dislocated me a bone I would beat him up but never kill…

That was in past….

Now is what matters.

The present time in other words.

Being lifted off the ground defying the law of physics and technically experience the feeling of flying should be something to remember and appreciate but for my case I just want to forget, I want my mind to somehow shut down my nerve system so I wouldn’t feel more pain. But that was impossible, and being throwing against the wall again reminded me of that; though this time I fell on my bed aftermath.I really hoped that my current situation was only a bad dream.

Only pained groans left my mouth, even those insignificant sounds hurt. I felt that I had just swallowed nails, my insides hurt and the better question for my state would be where I don’t feel pain. But my back was the most affected in this whole ordeal, absorbing more damage than my arms did, it was so unfair.

“I cannot believe that you actua-tually did it!” The stupid crying alicorn shouted, but she faltered since having a dislocated bone is also painful.

“I …Is…” It was incredible difficult for me to talk at the moment, the hit cut the air coming o my lungs; my only option left was to try to calm down.

In.

Out.

In.

Out.

The pain was still present though.

“You didn’t…listen.” And I finally managed to utter that response with all of my effort and breath.

However something happened that increased my worry about my well being to alarming levels.

I coughed blood.

Despite there was no light on I could easily tell the difference from my blood from the rest, it was there.

Fresh and warm.

And the more I stared at it the more kept coming.

How badly I was injured?

I was in pain before but now…

My body might go numb.

This is too worrisome to put it aside.

I need answers…

I need help…

I need a medic….

But...

I’m a medic.

I should be able to heal myself since for some reason I went and paid for the fucking university.

But another question arises; why I fear about my demise?

Why?

If Luna did something much worse to me time ago, I was only treated literally like a ragdoll this time but the other I was held captive on my metal table, my chest was cut open, my insides were visible, my organs were out of their respective places, and in that state they were smashed several times.

So If I endured that…Why I’m getting all that worried for coughing some blood?

“I can endure pain, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t feel it.” Luna remarked.

I remained silent; I was more focused on myself and the small stain of blood on my bed.

“You must fix this.” She demanded.

“I…don’t care.” I flatly told her.

I really didn’t care for her at all, if it wasn’t that she is useful for my plans I would have killed back then when I had the opportunity; though Celestia would have also killed me.

Back to the topic at hand…

I was flying again.

And impacted on the floor this time, but I used my arms to absorb the fall. It still hurt though.

“FIX. IT. NOW.”

Who am I to complain?

Enduring the pain I slowly got up from my spot. I didn’t know which part of me wasn’t sore or bruised; I felt like a weight was on my back preventing me from getting up as I felt how my arms burned my skin for the amount of work.

However thanks to my will power I pulled through it, standing on my feet felt different than moments ago; starting with my vision, everything around me was dizzy.

I had trouble with staying in the same position.

My breaths felt warm as erratic.

My stomach just wanted to throw everything out.

My chest had problems, which I didn’t mind much.

“You…have magic…” I replied as I slowly stretched my body, somehow believing that it will ease my pain.

“Using my magic will take time and patience; things that I currently lack.” Luna was so pissed, that was for sure.

I know in which situation I am, yet I don’t care.

I really don’t care what she is going to do to me next.

“Maybe is that…You miss my touch.” My cockiness is always with me no matter the situation or my state.

And another powerful hit struck me, right at my stomach; causing me to fell on my knees and threw up my dinner accompanied by fresh blood and saliva.

What did you expect?

I provoked her, and she snapped. There is no reason to put much thought in that.

“Learn your place, Elijah.” Luna stated with seriousness, yet how could I remain serious after hearing that?

Does she even know in which position she is actually in?

I wanted to let out my laughter, but the pain hold me back from doing so. Yet at the end I laughed; I laughed earning so much pain from my chest and throat; I could literally die from laughter if I didn’t control myself.

Though, thinking it better I will end with a smile plastered on my face.

Yet I wanted to be in the mortal plain for more time, so I had to control myself as my laugh calmed mush to the relief of my bruised body.

But let’s not forget that I wasn’t alone in my room, Luna the fucking stalker was in front of me and saw everything. She used to have a frowned expression on her face but now she was gritting her teeth; she could snap any moment.

And I will help her.

“You…are only a trophy which Celestia keeps around.” I said without no regrets. “You are nothing!”

I have no regrets, and there were no lies in that last statement.

Also, that was the last drop which spilled the cup.

She allowed her emotions go wild, if I wasn’t so badly injured maybe I could have thought in a way to fight back; but that wasn’t my situation. I was battered and weak; as I said before the mere action of breath was painful.

So I just decided to accept the true.

I embraced my situation and the future that will fall upon me.

Of course it wasn’t magic related since the pseudo-princess charged at me with an enraged cry, forgetting the fact that she posses magic once again.

I stayed on both knees.

And extened both arms.

Then I waited.

And waited.

And waited.

‘…What?’

I was expecting something else.

I surely wasn’t expecting her to be stand right in front of me; inches away from my face, so close that I could feel her breaths which actually were breaths of exhaustion. The warm air that touched my skin didn’t have bad smell to complain about, but it was still highly uncomfortable for me to have her too near.

Without a second thought I pushed her away.Though tried to push her away since I didn’t have much strength but what happened next really caught me off the guard.

Like I never saw it coming, no matter what.

She fell.

She fell to the floor.

She fell like a tower of cards!

That was not normal by her standards, and for me I wasn’t accustomed at all. I could say that this was the first time I saw her to react this way; I mean I saw her crying, begging, pathetic, angry, enraged, sad; yet this one was totally new to me.

Did I strike a very important nerve?

I wouldn’t be surprised, actually.

But her well being is none of my concern, she is an adult and she can take care of herself.

Not my problem.

My real problem was all the damage that my body endured, and it worried me even more the internal wounds.

But at this time it would be impossible to find help.

My best option was to just lie on my bed, sleep the remaining time of the night and then at the first hour in the morning search for help to treat these wounds. Yet the odds are against me; if I follow that option I might end dying or not.

What situation Am I in, right?

Let’s go with the first and only option.

Hopefully I will survive the night.

At first I crawled my way back but then I slowly began to rise from the floor; again I had to ignore the pain that I was feeling on my arms as legs. I wondered how many broken bones I might have; I mean when I was being tossed around like a cheap ragdoll I heard a few internal cracks coming from my chest and limbs.

Now thinking it better I might have a concussion; in other words I shouldn’t sleep for 24 hours just in case.

So that leaves me with a new question?

Now what?

How can I spend the time without doing much physical effort but remain active to do not fall asleep?

This sucks.

Let’s just head to my bed.

‘Uh…’

However destiny had another thing planned for me since I was restrained against my will.

I couldn’t move.

Adrenaline pumped into my veins into that moment; Luna must have recovered and she probably is still pissed about what I say.

So she will continue to toss me around, judging by the magical aura that envelopes my body as whole and don’t allow me to move a single muscle.

I believe is time to say goodbye…

Yes, I’m giving up already do you have a problem with it?

Go ahead tell me.

I don’t care.

‘…’

‘I actually feel better…’

Forget the last thing I said, errrrrrrr…. I think is too soon to give up.

Now I understand, Luna casted a healing spell on me, what a different outcome if you ask me. I feel a lot better, I didn’t feel body like was set on fire; neither my chest burned every time I breathed; and I couldn’t think in a better way to celebrate that moment with giving long and deep breaths causing my chest to rise.

It was nice to do not being in pain.

At that moment the idea struck my head, and pestered me with no end. It was an internal battle about doing what is right; personally I was against doing it but a favor must be exchanged with another favor no matter what.

But my internal debate didn’t last long since I’m a good example of a gentleman.

I turned back.

The first thing I noticed was that Luna was there fully standing, staring at the nothingness. She was expressionless, not depressed; neither sad, much less angry and happy was obviously out of the question.

If I were a different person, what the other think I am, I would have got worried of her current state; such state doesn’t fit to somebody who always tries to be hold pride in her. But this wasn’t my situation; I just didn’t care and never will I. Her business is her business and my businesses are my business.

The only sound that we could hear was my footsteps approaching to her side, she didn’t try to look at me and neither had I tried. Once there I carefully grabbed her wing, minding the afflicted part so I moved it with all the possible care I could give so she wouldn’t feel much pain, I placed my hand next to her joint and slowly I searched the place where the bone belongs.

Oh, right…

I forgot to add that my head was also healed.

I didn’t feel like a fucking bag of bricks just hit me.

So paying attention was a lot easier to me.

I still searched for the correct place; it took me time and patience. If I remember correctly Luna stated that she lacked of those aspects but the truth is that she is a hypocrite like me. She is right here, patiently waiting for me to do my magic with my experienced hands.

I know what you are thinking….

Stop those thoughts, my advice to you.

After some time later I finally found the correct position and place.

When I relocated her bone back I heard the sound of bones joining; it didn’t bother me at all. I mean I broke also shatter bones ion my job so this is nothing.

Only after I released her wing, did Luna check her wings by giving experimental flaps.

And finally she looked at me with her eyes filled with dread, so after all she was depressed. But she hide it very well; that actually explained me the why she didn’t bother to connect gazes with me; not that I cared.

“Just read the letter.” With that said another piece of paper was given to me.

I looked at the paper with the royal seal.

I could only sigh and broke the seal.

When I looked up Luna was already gone.

“Not even a thank you?”

Wait do I really deserve those words after everything that has happened.

Of course yes!

Anyways that is something for latter time; right now the contents of this stupid letter were sadly more important.

Dear Elijah,

We have captured a general of the deer army; I want you to extract all the information that he might have. I don’t care how you do it as long that you get what I want; I will provide you with the necessary resources to carry on the interrogation, just send a letter accompanied with this letter.

You will be paid extra for this small job, and if he is alive after the interrogation is finished you will receive even more money.

By tomorrow morning he will be there.

Have fun.

Signs,

Princess Celestia.

Wow…

Is she actually going to pay me extra? I mean she could easily order me or force me to carry this job; thought thinking it better she is trying to motivate me to do this correctly and efficient, she is right a happy worker will do a better job than an angry one.

Let’s sleep and think how I can get the information out of this poor soul….

I already have an idea of how to begin.

Tomorrow my breakfast will have good portions of meat.

What?

Protein is good to keep the healthy figure.
