The Arabian Mole

The agency was the main office on the west coast. Most espionage missions came through here before being accepted. Like most agents, I was an orphan. It's better that way, as the Saddle Arabian agents can't hurt your loved ones. For the last few years, I have been working to become a field agent. Unfortunately,  my track record of collateral damage does not help me much. With a sigh, I walked purposefully down the agency hallway, nodding to staff as they scurried about on their business. I sipped on Parsnip's tea as I knocked on the door of Twilight's office. The hallway lights flickered, probably on account of my little escapade into high explosives.

"Come in, it's unlocked!" Twilight shouted in a rather tired voice.

I slowly opened the door, noticing how messy the office was. Coffee cups and papers littered the desk as the purple alicorn tapped furiously on the computer.

"Twilight, is something wrong?" I ventured. "You aren't usually this messy."

"Is something wrong? Of course something is fucking wrong! It's war! And it doesn't help with you blowing the roof of the agency with high explosives!" She scowled, and then seemed to droop in her chair.

"With the Arabians on a large offensive, I already have too much on my hooves." She straightened he back. "Princess Celestia put me in charge of the espionage agency because I am the most organized pony she knows. But even I could not hope to manage all this!" She raised her hooves at the scattered paperwork all around.

I took another sip of Tea. "Why don't you take a Vacation? I'm sure Princess Celestia could find someone as a replacement."

Twilight sighed. "There's a war going on. I can't just take a vacation. I wish I could, but Equestria needs me."

She straightened a stack of papers with her magic, and pulled out a folder from her desk. With thwap, the papers smacked against the desk.

"Now, let's deal with you, Mr. Flame." Twilight grumbled. "Over the last month, yo have caused property damage, collateral damage and have killed multiple Arabian agents we wanted alive."

What can you say, I'm dangerous to be around" I remarked with a smile.

"A bit to dangerous, don't you think?" Twilight took out a photo of me setting explosives of the running wheels of a train. It was dated to last week. "In what sane mind did you think setting high explosives on a civilian train was a valid idea?"

"The target....." I began

She stood up in anger "I know the target was on the fucking train! You ended up killing the target we wanted to capture along with 8 innocent civilians! Do you even possess common sense!?"

"Today...." I started, but yet again she cut me off.

"I know you captured the target today, but that resulted in the destruction of the agencies' roof! Do you know how expensive building materials are in wartime?" She sat down in anguish. "Eugh... I've had enough. You are relieved from duty until next month, in when you will be sent to Saddle Arabia for an espionage mission. Hopefully you will cause them as much destruction as you caused us."

"So, you are just making me a field agent?" I asked with a smile.

Twilight looked at me. "I wish I wasn't rewarding recklessness, but you are the only agent qualified for the Saddle Arabia mission we have not currently occupied. Now, please let me get back to my paperwork." She slumped again in her chair, picking up the pen with her magic.

I finished my tea, placing it on the desk. "C'mon twilight, come to the bar with me. Celestia know's you need the break." I asked hopefully.

Twilight glanced at me, then her paperwork. She dropped the pen with a yawn. "Fine. One drink. Then I need to finish my paperwork."

After a few drinks more than one, Twilight and I sat across form each other in the almost empty bar. The chat had shifted from business topics to more personal ones as our blood toxicity rose.

"So, are you virgin or not?" I questioned. It probably wasn't something that I would ask if I wasn't drunk.

"Wha... What?" She blushed. "I've done it..... A few times." She took another sip of her martini

"Details! C'mon!" I pestered her as I took another shot of whiskey.

Her cheeks turned tomato red.

"Erm, well.... The first time, I kind of wished I didn't. It was really kind of a one night stand." Twilight shifted uncomfortably in her seat and stirred her drink. "How about you?" Her violet eyes stared deep into mine.

"Well, really just a few flings. No major relationships" I answered with another shot of whiskey.

Sitting there, looking back at me, she looked beautiful. Like an elegant, natural sort of beauty. I never realized how sexy she was before now.

"Well, it's getting late." I proclaimed, glancing at my watch.

She just stared at me, as if captivated by an unknown force.

Without thinking, I leaned over and planted a kiss right on her mouth. Her eyes opened wide, startled by my sudden movement.

I pulled back quickly. "It's getting late now better go now bye!" I worryingly rushed, my cheeks blushing.

Before I could move, Twilight took my mouth in hers, startling me. We stayed like that for a while, before she pulled away.

"I liked that." She whispered quietly in my ear. "Want to come to my place, for... you know" she blushed heavily.

I was so stimulated all I could do was nod and drink in her sight.

We walked along the street back to her apartment, Twilight wrapped her wings around me and rested her cheek on mine. She spoke softly.

"I wish this war never happened." She sighed. "Too many good ponies have died already. We don't need more to die. This war is just silly"

I pecked her on the cheek and nuzzled her softly.

"Well, all we can do right now is get through it. Eventually the War will end, And Equestria will be back as it was before. I just hope I get to live to see it." I said to her slowly, trotting down the lonely, dark Vanhoover street.

                                                /////

When we got to her apartment, twilight lay down on the bed, her wings spread out along the linen she smiled softly, inviting me. I lay down on top of her, stroking her wings with my hooves and entwining my tongue with hers. The actions made her shudder with ecstasy. This was going to be a good night.
