Hero or Villain
The moonlit stroll
Previous Chapter"... its to risky. But tell you what? We can go for a stroll. I know you wanted to go to sugar cube-" Moonlight said when his mouth was covered by one of Autumns hooves. He looked up to see her smiling.
"That was what I wanted to hear. Risking yourself over a sweet treat would have been stupid." she said "And besides, you know I prefer walks over sitting down."
With a chuckle the couple started down the path...
Many Hours Later...
After a day of walking, small talk, hiding from pinkie (which is harder than it looks) and laughter, Moonlight and Autumn finally decided to rest under a tree to look at the stars. Moonlight started to have his mind drift as he thought Why is it that Lady Luna can't enter my dreams? Because you don't dream. Why is it that they have not told Rainbow about me? Because they fear you. And what about that that theory I read? The one about the cutiemark- Moonlights thoughts were interrupted when Autumn leaned into Moonlight. "Its almost like the old days. Sitting under a tree, stars glittering the sky, and you worrying about something but never sharing it." Autumn said said as she sighed "You haven't changed a bit. A new scar, new skills but the same personality. So, what were you thinking about?"
Moonlight thought for a moment before responding "What did those camera systems find out about you?"
Autumn sighed before saying "I could lie to you but you would catch me. OK, OK. They found out my heat cycle."
"Your what?"
"My heat cycle."
"still can't hear you."
"Sigh. They found out my heat cycle. You can guess what the pervs tried and failed to do. And no, I will not tell you who they are. Knowing you, you would go and kill them."
Moonlight and Autumn turned their attention to the stars as Autumn started to drift off. Moonlight just stayed her ever watchful guardian I will never let them harm you. To you, Autumn Wind, I give you my soul. Do with it as you wish, but accept this gift for I will never leave your side again. Thought Moonlight before he heard a voice sounding like Autumn's in his head. I accept this gift and return it with my own. You didn't think I would feel the same silly? I love you Moonlight. Goodnight. Autumn looked down to see that Autumn was passed out with her hooves around him and a smile on her face. Sighing, realizing he could not get up with out waking her up, he wrapped his wings around them both as he to drifted to sleep. As he fell asleep, the stars and moon shined brighter than they ever have before...
Meanwhile in Canterlot...
Luna had just finished her nightly run when she noticed the moon and stars were too bright. She tried to dim them a little bit but found that she could control them but not their glow. How-who could have done this? It's... beautiful.
The next morning...
Moonlight awoke from his slumber feeling warmer than he should have for sleeping outside. He then noticed the crimson mane on his chest and last nights events can to him. He sighed and lightly nudged Autumn awake. Autumn mumbled "Just one more hour." before Moonlight chuckle woke her up. "Morning Moonlight" she said with a blush starting to form on her face.
"Good morning, Autumn. Nice dreams?" Moonlight responded, already knowing the answer.
"Uh.. Oh I mean yes! Perfect sleep! No dreams about you and I under this tree doing things!"
"You know, for a diplomat, you are a horrible lair."
"OK laugh it up."
"OK, I will. Hahahaha!"
After the two were done laughing their bums off, they decided to go home (or in Moonlights case, Rainbows home) to eat. After explaining to Rainbow Dash where he was last night with leaving out some details Rainbow gave him a propitiation. "OK Moonlight, I know I was told not to tell anypony about you but I went braging of how I saw this bat pony doing awesome moves and summoning a weapon out of nowhere. One of my friends is interested in magic and wants to know how you summoned you weapon being a bat pony and all."
"Who?"
"Princess Twilight Sparkle."
... Ah bucken A Rainbow! "Rainbow, knowing her if I talk to her she will want to know my name, send it to Celestia who will show Lady Luna who will come and try to get me."
"Which is why I told her next week."
"How does that make a difference?"
"You become and adult Sunday and it is Saturday... Buck! Pinkie will know it is you birthday!"
"How-"
"Don't question Pinkie Pie! And if not her then her coltfriend, Cheese will if he is in town! Buck, we did not think this though!"
"So what do I do?"
"Well you have three options. One, wait till tomorrow and run like hell out of town. Two, get out of town today or three, stay for the party and get caught. Though, I am not sure weather or not they can take you back since you will be technically an adult."
Buck my life.
