Chapters Mugen walked briskly through the wooded countryside, his thoughts still occupied with the events of only a week before. He was still sore after all the fighting and was kind of....lonely without Jin and that idiot Fuu.
“Fucking idiot, why are you thinking of them.” Mugen scowled at himself, but then Mugen noticed something, the sound of hushed voices right before him. He spun around and found a few armed men smiling deviously right at him. “Well boys, this is our lucky payday. Our man Mugen here has quite the bounty on his head.” Mugen scowled and clicked his sword out of its sheath slung across his back.
…..
Applejack trotted back and forth nervously, looking into the forest, before facing her friends again. “Ah told that filly to stay outta them woods after ah heard those timber wolves a howling but she went right on in when ah wasn't looking.”
Twilight wrapped a comforting hoof around her friend, before speaking, “Alright if we hurry we can still grab her before she gets into any real trouble.” Applejack and the others simply nodded before racing into the Everfree forest.
…..
Mugen wiped the blood off his blade on the shirt of the leader of the idiotic trio. He spat on his corpse before continuing through the forest. He was a little bit happier, killing jack asses like them always relieved a little bit of stress. Mugen whistled a jolly tune while he continued walking through the forest when he abruptly stopped noticing the strangest thing to his left. There was a single patch of fog just...there. Mugen inched closer to the strange patch and slowly reached a hand out to grab it.
…..
Twilight and her friends galloped as fast as they could through the forest, but something caught her attention from her left. She skidded to a halt and her friends struggled to do the same before Applejack started yelling.
“Twi! What in the hay are you doing? We need to find mah sister!” Applejack scolded her unicorn friend, but Twilight raised a hoof and pointed....a single square of fog in between two trees that coiled around itself perfectly still.
Rainbow Dash looked at her friend, “Yeah its creepy miss egg head but we don't have time. I'll fly up and see if I can find her from above.” And with that the Rainbow maned pegasus flew up above the trees.
Twilight shook her head, “Yeah I'm sorry lets go.” The others grunted and started to run forward and Twilight simply looked back at the fog, sure she saw something moving through it before darting into the woods after her friends.
….
Mugens stomach roared at him as he stepped through the strange white fog. As he stepped through, the fine mist immediately dissipated, startling the man. He started to panic, the forest around him was completely different than the forest he was in before. It was summer just moments before, but the cold here stung his cheeks and the trees were barren. As he panicked he noticed a trail of hoof prints in the dirt and his stomach rumbled. Prints meant animals and animals meant meat and meat meant....FOOD!
Mugen picked up his speed and stealthily peeked around the corner to see what the hell was going on. What he saw startled him. There were six colorful...mini-horses, 2 had horns, 2 had wings and they shouting at a group of snarling....wooden wolves. The wolves had surrounded a mini-MINI horse and the thing was whimpering. It called out and a yellow horse shouted back, a hat bouncing on its head. One of the wolves turned around ignoring the new arrivals and began to leap at the little pony. Mugen grinned and sheathed his sword. If he could fend the wooden wolves off...they might give him some food. And with that he darted around the corner of his tree and made his move.
….
“Applebloom! Hang in there honey Ah'll get you outta there lickety split.” Applejack cried out in a panic.
“Get away from her you meanies!” Pinkie shouted, before sticking her tongue out.
One of the timber wolves turned and jumped at Applebloom just as Applejack threw her lasso....and a blur sped by and the timber wolf landed on an empty patch where Applebloom was only moments before.
The timber wolves growled at the new arrival, a tall gangly creature with a red jacket and a torn dirty shirt underneath, it had something strapped its back, and weird things on its feet. Its hair was like a mop on its head and it had deep brown eyes...and a metal thing in its hands and Applebloom in the other.
The Bipedal creature looked to Applebloom and said something in complete gibberish.
Twilight shook her head, unable to answer.
The strange creature called out, clearly to Applejack, with yet more gibberish. When Applejack shook her head, unable to understand it, the creature clearly scowled, and made a few motions between Applebloom and her older sister.
The creature looked at Applebloom and guided her to his back where she wrapped shakily around him with all four hooves. The man charged straight at the timber Wolves and screamed at the top of his lungs.
…..
Mugen felt exhilarated as his blade cleaved the first wolf thing in half. He continued his charge, his face of pure rage, swinging his blade side to side, completely ignoring the almost non existent weight of the mini-mini horse on his back. He cut down another one before leaping into the air and swinging his legs, one connected with the face of a wolf, the other caught a different one clean in the gut.
He smirked as he spun around and landed on his feet, cutting the face of the nearest wolf clean off as he darted past it. Within moments the mad man had carved a path through the pack to the startled mini-horses on the other side, sliding along the dirt floor of the forest.
He let the little one go and it darted to its older sibling or parent, what ever it was it gave a thankful yet fearful glance at the man.
He smirked and yawned straight at the wolves, before allowing himself to fall on his ass.
He held out a single hand and beckoned the pack towards him, laughing the whole time.
“Come on chicken shits, you wanna eat me, Come on!” Mugen taunted the things, but the pack looked at its fallen brethren and padded away, eyes never leaving him, with cautious growls.
When the wolves finally left, Mugen stood up and yelled out, “EAT IT COCK SUCKERS!”
He spun around to the six weird colored horses, and immediately darted up to the closest one, a purple...unicorn?
Curiosity got the better of him and he flicked the horn.
The creature gave a humph of annoyance. But then looked at him curiously, before sticking a hoof in his hair.
He laughed and in the blink of an eye was beside a cream colored horsey with wings... He had no idea what the fuck they were called.... and the thing eeped and hid its face with its hooves.
Mugen actually thought it was cute. He laughed and gently tugged on its feathered wings, before pulling on its hooves. The creature looked up at him with beautiful...wait beautiful, what the fuck?!!?
Mugen scowled to himself and shot upright, startling the group, as he paced, but then his stomach growled.
One of the mini-horses shot up into the air, a humongous gasp, sprang from its lips, and it darted right in front of him. It let out a long winded string of gibberish, and he stared blankly at it.
The purple one said something to him and he simply stood there.
Something caressed the side of his leg and he nearly jumped, but looked to see the little one he saved, blushing at him. On his other side was the little ones big sister and she reached into a sack on her side and pulled out...
Mugen gasped and dropped to his knees and bowed to the orange horse, before taking the precious, precious apple. He stroked it soothingly before devouring it.
He noticed shortly into his feast that the strange creatures were staring at him.
He stopped eating and pointed up at the sun, he motioned around with his hand in a circle twice and rubbed his stomach and held aloft the apple, smiling nervously.
He hoped they understand and....his prayer was answered. Their eyes grew wide as they looked back and forth at each other, the orange one took out hooffuls of apples and Mugen couldn't contain his saliva as he dug ferociously into the glorious bounty before him.
The purple one motioned with one hoof for him to follow, Mugen shrugged his shoulders and simply said, “Lead the way bitch”
The purple unicorn smiled as he laughed at it because it couldn't understand and thought to himself he could have some fun with this.
….
I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it, I tried adjusting my wall of text style that was Dead space Equestria and hope this helps and addressed the issues in writing I had with DSE before. I'm going to have a hell of a time with this story by the way. As usual leave comments below letting me know how much of an improvement it is to before, which I doubt, but I digress, stay hungry for Mugen my friends... stay hungry. Also, I'd like to point out that if I ever get anything wrong...it has been a while since I've seen the show which i followed like a voracious little hound dog, so DO NOT HESITATE TO CHEW ME OUT!!!!
“Oooooooooooooooh I hope he likes parties!” Pinkie Pie hopped around the scowling bipedal creature, completely oblivious to the fact that it had no idea what she was saying.
Twilight sighed again and told Pinkie, for the hundredth time today, “I don't know Pinkie and we have to go the library, I have a spell book with a translation spell in it. I simply cast a spell and all of sudden...we have communication”
Pinkie, again continued skipping alongside the tall lanky creature constantly spouting her random nonsense ignoring Twilight completely.
Rarity chimed in for Pinkie Pie, “As usual dear, your plan is simply fabulous, I can't wait to converse with this...uhhhh....well I'm sure he'll be a gentelcolt or a wonderful...uhhh...mare.”
Twilight face hoofed, “Rarity, thank you, really, but I don't think he can be described like we can another pony.”
Rarity smiled sheepishly and continued to trot along.
Applebloom rubbed against her older sister, “Ah'm mighty sorry Applejack, I thought I could handle mahself.”
Applejack couldn't stay angry, especially with the look her little sister gave her. So she nodded and nuzzled her saying, “Aw shoot Applebloom, you didn't mean nothing by it, and ah guess nearly getting gobbled up taught you enough. Ahm just glad that.....uhhh....thing came by and saved you lickity split.”
Applebloom grinned widely and silently nuzzled her sister back while walking. Applejack perked up as a thought came to her, “We've got to have an apple family dinner to thank the uhhhhh...what ever it is.” Applejack turned to the creature who turned to her with a yawn, “Ah know you can't understand me yet, pal but we're gonna throw you one mighty big welcome party!”
Pinkie Pie hopped straight up, “PAAAAAAARTYYYY!” She screamed and landed right in the arms of the creature whose scowl deepened, and he clearly thought about doing something to Pinkie, which worried the group of mare, but it instead just set her down.
Applebloom caught the attention of the thing with her eyes and the thing stared right back. After a while it said very slowly and clearly, “Kawaii.” The thing blinked and shook its head, annoyed with something and picked up its pace to match the ponies it followed.
….
“What the fuck, it looks like I stepped right into a damn fairy tale or something.” Mugen muttered as he absorbed the brightly colored town before him. There were DOZENS of more mini-horses following him with worried eyes, until the purple one said something and cheers flung up from the crowd.
After about ten minutes of walking the group halted in front of a large tree that Mugen noticed had been turned into a house of some sort. With a purple glowing aura from its horn, the purple one looked at the door, the same aura surrounded the door and it opened, seemingly of its own accord.
“What the hell!” Mugen exclaimed and jumped back. The little things gave him puzzled looks at his reaction.
Mugen shook his head and followed the purple one inside, he had to practically drop to his knees just to fit inside, the small pony sized door. The purple one looked back and smiled sheepishly at him.
His mouth opened in wonder when he saw what was inside. The thing was clearly a home as well as something else... There were dozens of shelves inside all lined with...books.
Mugen walked up to the closest shelf and immediately began ripping books off the shelf, peeking inside... Nope couldn't understand a word. He began throwing books over his shoulder as he peered into every one of the books.
An angry shout interrupted his curious destruction of the shelves as an aggravated purple, lizard … thing started picking up books and storing them on the shelves. It scowled at Mugen as it worked while talking to the purple one. Its gaze looked around until it fell on the white, fancy looking one and its eyes turned to hearts.
Mugen looked back and forth between the two...could it...No fucking way.
Mugen's face exploded into laughter at the though of it. The whole group looked at him strangely while the pink one joined right in with his laughter, it clearly had no clue why he was laughing and simply just wanted to join in.
The purple one rolled its eyes and its horn began to glow and books levitated down to it.
Mugen stumbled back and whipped his sword out of his sheath, “What the fuck is with the purple shit?” Mugen asked. The group all looked at him frightened worried looks on their face.
Mugen took a step towards a book, held aloft in the air still, and he jabbed at it with his sword. When the glowing book continued to stay afloat in the air, he glanced at the frightened horse-things and sighed before sheathing his blade.
A collective sigh of relief came from them all. The purple one began speed reading through the books and after a short while gave a yell of triumph. It trotted up to Mugen and put the book at an angle for him to look at it.
He stared at its jumbled pages blankly, waiting for an explanation that couldn't be given. The purple one waved a hoof to grab his attention and began to use moves its body in strange ways....
“What in fucks name are you doing?” Mugen asked bluntly, shaking his head in lack of understanding.
The pink one raised its hoof and began yelling excitedly and began moving its body with sign language. Only this ones movements made even less sense...yet he understood what it was motioning.
You guys...are....going to....use magic...” Mugen scowled thinking they were lying about magic, unable to believe, but continued to guess at the pink ones motions, “ To...to... make me understand what you little guys are saying.” Mugen began to bobble his head yes in understanding.
The purple one grinned with triumph and said something to the pink one who smiled in turn. It turned to Mugen and its horn began to glow.
…..
Pinkie Pie hopped up and down in front of the thing and began to babble uncoherently, “ohmygoshcanyoureallyunderstandusnowhuhcanyoucanyoucanyou!!?!?!?!” The thing, its voice gruff responded quickly, “ Wow what kind of shit are you on? Calm down there pink stuff.”
Twilight gasped at his vulgarity and her success, “It worked! Haha! We can understand you, but can you understand us?”
The thing looked her right in the eyes, “I sure as fuck can, but what are you anyways?”
Twilight shook her head, unbelieving of his rudeness, “Okay, I'm going to need you stop saying such bad words, and I am a unicorn. My name is Twilight Sparkle, and I-” She was cut off as the thing began laughing hysterically.
Twilight squinted, annoyed, “Is there something funny?”
The male answered between gasps of breath, “Yo-your....name...hahahhaa!” The creature wiped a tear out of his eyes before he spoke, “ Name's Mugen. I'm just a human.”
Applejack and her sister stepped up, “Nice to meet yah Mugen, mah name's Applejack and this ere is Applebloom. We're mighty thankful for what yah did in the Everfree forest. We're simple earth ponies for thuh record.”
Mugen clearly struggled not to laugh, “Nice to meet you too Appl- hahah- Applejack and Applebloom”The thing caved in to its laughter and stumbled over itself.
“Mister Mugen why do you keep laughing like that?” Applebloom piped up, Applejack was scowling a little bit.
“I'm sorry squirt squirt, but you're names are just so....ridiculous hahahhaa.” Mugen began to laugh again and cleared his throat as the little pony, Applebloom, got a sad look on her face.
“Okay, I promise, no more laughing at names okay? I'm sorry.” Mugen smiled apologetically and Applebloom perked right up.
Rarity cleared her throat for attention and began to speak as Mugen looked up to her, “My name is Rarity, my dear Mugen, I need to beg of you to stop acting like such a ruffian. It ill becomes you my dear.” Mugen nodded and grumbled a hello, already not liking how stuck up she appeared to be.
Rainbow Dash dragged Fluttershy right in front of Mugen and darted off, while Fluttershy simply stared right into his eyes. The two stared at each other for a solid minute until Fluttershy finally squeaked, “I'm Fluttershy.”
Mugen bent down and closer to the shy pegasus and said, “What was that short stuff, I didn't quite catch that.”
“Fl-fluttershy.” She squeked.
He bent closer, “Say again?”
“Fluttershy” She squeaked in turn.
He got right in her face and simply stared her in the eye.
“I said my name is Fluttershy.” She barely managed to whisper.
Mugen stayed there a moment before plopping a hand on her head and ruffled her mane, “Nice to meet you Fluttershy.”
Before Mugen could even stand up Rainbow Dash zoomed all around the room as fast her wings would carry her, darting through windows outside, zipping about and along the shelves without disturbing the books and with an amazing flip, landed right in front of the human.
“And I am Rainbow Dash, the greatest and most super and awesomest pegasus in all of Ponyville! I'm the greatest flier here and one day I'm gonna join the wonderbolts!” The rainbow colored mare said with a triumphant smile as her friends gave her a polite applause.
Mugen smirked, readying his legs, and leaped into the air over Twilight and landed, his hands on a nearby table, using it as a springboard he flipped over onto the pink ones back and with a gentle shove, he was in the air again landing on the edge of a book shelf, he immediately jumped off of that and spun around in the air before landing on Applejacks back with his own back pressed against hers, with a quick spin he leaped off of her and whipped out the metal thing on his back and threw it into the library floor with a heavy thud, landing right on the top of the handle, smirking at the wide-eyed ponies.
“I like you kid, you got moves and you got spunk, but not as much as me.” Mugen said simply and the ponies began to eagerly clapped, and surprisingly, Rainbow clapped right along with them.
Spike waddled forward with a wide eyed look on his face. “I'm Spike, a baby dragon and Twilight's number one assistant.” Spike puffed out his chest at the last part, earning a chuckle from Mugen.
“A dragon, huh? Now that's fucking neat.” Mugen said simply, earning a angry glare from Rarity, Mugen smiled and stuck his tongue out at her...until a pink blur nearly tackled him.
“I'M PINKIE PIE AND I'M GOING TO THROW YOU THE BIGGEST, AWESOMEST WELCOM PARTY EVER! I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT EVERYPONY LOVES MY PARTIES!” The pink mare, startled Mugen off of his sword and he quickly pole vaulted off the floor with his hands before he could hit the floor. With a tug, he pulled the metal stick of the ground and slid it inside the thing on his back.
Mugen stared warily at the panting, pink, party pony until Twilight cleared her throat.
“We need to tell the princess about you right away, she'll want to know all about you.” Twilight said, earning nods from the whole group.
“ Spike write a letter to princess Celestia.” The baby dragon waddled off. “On it”
…..
Mugen shook the hoof proffered to him from the big red pony called Big Macintosh. The farm stallion simply said, “Eeyup.” After Applejack had introduced him to her brother. It had been a pretty hefty argument amongst the ponies who he stayed with after Twilight got an answer from the Princess almost immediately, instructing her student to look after Mugen while took care of business in the griffon empire...where ever that was. They had decided that Applejack should get to welcome him the first night since he saved Applebloom.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders jumped up and down all around the man, they constantly spouted questions at him, wondering about what was the thing on his back for, why was his hair so poofy, why is there hair only on your head?
Granny Smith smiled at Mugen and said in a whittled old voice, yet firm voice over the children, “Well you need to have an Apple family dinner my boy, you could use some food from the looks of it.”
Mugen nodded and said, “Yeah I haven't had more than a few apples over the past two days.”
The Apple family's eyes grew wide and Granny Smith nearly knocked Mugen over with the volume of her yell, “Well why didn't you say something yah young feller. Get to stuffing yer face right now!”
Mugen smiled at the old ladies style and eagerly dove into the massive array of food piled on the table for him. He ate quickly, only stopping to breathe and the Apple family simply stared in silent awe. They had never had a guest eat so quickly and so much besides them selves.
After about an hour of continuous eating, the dinner table lay bare and Mugen rocked in his seat patting his stomach as he let loose a great burp. “Let me tell you lady, you know how to cook.” Mugen said with a satisfied smile.
Granny Smith laughed and replied, “Well young man, ah'm mighty glad you enjoyed this old mares cooking, now I know you lot must be awful tired after today, so Applejack dear, show Mugen to his room for the night. Oh, and that means bed for you too Cutie Mark Crusaders.”
The fillys groaned in unhappiness and trotted off to Applebloom's room for the night, with Applejack leading Mugen right behind them.
Applejack stopped outside a door directly across from the CMC, and raised a hoof to it.”This here'll be where ya stay the night Mugen.” With that the farm mare turned and began to trot to her own room...until he hear Mugen shout out for her.
“Hey Applejack where the hell is the bed?”
Applejack turned to the human with a quizzical look, before coming back and into the room whre Mugen pointed, she saw the bed perfectly fine as Mugen walked around looking for where he supposed to sleep...continually passing the four post bed.
Applejack face hoofed and pointed at the bed, “Mugen don't y'all have beds where your from? Cus that right there is the bed.”
Mugen looked at the bed curiously, “ I thought it was desk for some shit, we use bed rolls on the floor.”
Applejack started, “Say what? That must me mighty uncomfortable.”
Mugen simply shook his head, making his poofy hair bounce with the motion, “Not really, thanks for pointing it out
.”
After about an hour, in the dead silent of night, Mugens door creaked open and Mugen immediately became alert, drawing the secret dagger from the folds of his clothes, preparing for anything when he heard a whispered voice, “Are you sure this is a good idea Scootaloo?” The voice of the little filly, Sweetie Belle, shattered the silence.
Mugen smiled to himself and sheather the dagger, laying on his side he prepared for his new plan.
“Yeah, after today, Mister Mugens gotta be asleep by now. I think we can grab that thing on his back and see what it is for sure.” Scootaloo whispered back.
The voices grew steadily and steadily closer until they were finally close enough. With a flick of his wrists, Mugen flew the blanket off of his body spun around and whispered “BOO!”
The young filly's jumped, and Mugen scooped them all up with a single sweep of his arms. He held the now scared CMC above the air so they wre looking right into his tired eyes.
“We're...were awful sorry mister Mugen.” Applebloom said with a quivering lip.
Mugen stared right into the eyes of the little ponies, as they nodded their heads in conjunction with what Applebloom said. Mugen struggled with the fact that...he found these three ponies so...fucking adorable. He never found ANYTHING adorable...and here these little damned ponies doing just that to him...being adorable and not just adorable, oh no...they were fucking adorable.
He sighed and deposited the three ponies under the blankets with him, laid back and closed his eyes as the CMC struggled underneath the blankets until eventually three little adorable heads poked out. He popped an eye open with a lazy smile and ruffled the hair of little Applebloom, who still had her bow in her hair, they all looked at Mugen with wide orbs for eyes.
“Well are you going to sleep or not, cus I am.” Mugen said and closed his eyes again. For a minute the three ponies fumbled around until they were comfortable around or on Mugen and curled up into little pony balls and nestled down to sleep.
Mugen smiled as the warmth of the Filly's against him and for the first time in years, he slept, content, and peacefully deep into the night.
….
HUH??!? Mugen finds the CMC irresistably adorable? That doesn't seem like him at all. :/
A Strange Day
Mugen grunted as giggles pierced the silence near him. A whisper broke out from among the giggles, “Awww their so cute! I didn't think Mugen would be the snuggly-wuggly type!” Pinkie Pie's distinct voice shrilled through the silence.
Mugen lolled his head to the side the giggles were coming from, his eyes shot open and he put a finger to his lips. The mane six shut up immediately and smiled toothy grins as he gestured to the sleeping fillies in the bed with him.
He quickly and silently adjusted little Applebloom off of his chest and into the shirt, maneuvering Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo so the three weren't in his way, they merely shook and stirred but didn't wake as Mugen stealthily crept out of the bed.
Mugen tip toed across the room and out the door, latching it silently so as to not wake the Cutie Mark Crusaders. He turned to see the smiling faces of the mane six. He smirked and quickly slapped a hand across the faces of the six ponies who had lined up to peek inside the room.
Twilight rubbed her face and in an angry whisper hissed, “What was that for?”
Mugen smirked and said to the unicorn, “For waking me up and almost waking the kids.”
The ponies couldn't help but smile at the human and the group left the farm in a silent rush, into the early morning of Pony Ville.
…...
Twilight continually spouted out questions for the human because they hadn't had the time the day before. “Where did you come from? Do you know how you got here? How did you get here? Why do you smell so bad?”
Mugen frowned as he began to answer, “I'm from a country called Japan, specifically from the Ryuku Islands, you see my country is a big island made up of quite a few tiny ones. I'm a wanderer so I don't really have a home. I ended up here while passing through a forest, I saw a weird ass block of fog that didn't seem right. I stepped through and ended up here.” The man finished with a simple shrug of his shoulders.
Mugen thought for a moment before he said aloud, “Oh, and I stink because, like I said I'm a wanderer so I haven't bathed in two months. Well, I think it may have been two months, maybe longer.”
Rarity cringed, “No bath...for...two.... months? TWO WHOLE MONTHS. ” Rarity's eyes twitched as she obviously tried to not throw up before running up to and with a cringe tried to shove Mugen, but she was far too afraid to touch the dirty human, “Come along right now, I don't care what any pony says, you are taking a bath right now.”
Mugen tried to protest but Rarity's friends all snickered and began to push him along for Rarity who simply couldn't touch the filthy, dirty human to the what they called “The Pony Ville Spa”.
…..
Mugen grimace, really pissed off at the whole situation. “Fucking Rarity, and her stuck up...being...clean...ness” He mutterd under his breath unsure of what word to describe her with. He stood there with nothing but a towel in front of his groin as the mane six continued to stare.
Mugen scowled and replied angrily, “Well I don't exactly like it when people....uhhh....ponies look at me while I'm naked.”
The mane six looked back and forth at one another before bursting into laughter, in between bouts of giggles Twilight managed to spit out, “Uh Mugen, wearing clothes in Pony Ville isn't actually very common, No pony cares if your naked.”
Mugen's scowl deepened and he dropped the towel revealing everything...The ponies stares grew wide and Rarity's jaw actually dropped. Mugen hurriedly hopped into the tub and sank into the bubbly mixture. He breathed a sigh of relief as the warm water immediately began to eat through the layers of dirt on his skin.
He stared at the mane six, they stared back, he stared at them and they continued to stare in turn. Finally Mugen frowned, “Do you mind?”
Pinkie Pie gasped and hopped into the air, “OH MY GOSH I DON'T MIND!” and leaped into the large tub Mugen was in.
Mugen frantically gathered bubbles to his groin and shouted at the top of his lungs, “WHAT THE FUCK PINKIE?!!”
The party mare looked at him and squeed before beginning laps around the tub. Mugen watched the party pony circle again and again while thinking, “This pony is on some serious drugs.” Mugen sighed in defeat and began to scrub his body as the rest piled into the large tub.
…..
Rarity giggled at the human as he scowled at the group, in new clothes that she had hoof stitched for him, they were almost identical as the clothes he had before except these were black with white edges and high lights throughout.
Mugens scowl deepened as he asked, “Was the extreme bath and massage really that important?”
Rarity and the others nodded, “You smelled wretched my dear, the bath brought about a one hundred percent improvement. And that stylish outfit was hoof stitched by moi.” Rarity smiled with pride at the last bit.
Mugen's scowl softened and he grumbled, “Where are my cloths any way?
Twilight blinked, “ Oh, you're clothes are at Rarity's being washed again and again.”
Mugen scowled even deeper than before but didn't say anything.
“THERE HE IS! CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS HUMAN HUNTERS ARE A GO! OPERATION CAPTURE MUGEN ….BEGIN!” The familiar shouts of the CMC as the trio of filly's charged straight for Mugen laughing and giggling the whole way....until they crashed into a particular Griffon.
Gilda was heading for Rainbow Dash and her friends, crossing the street coming around a corner as the Cutie Mark Crusaders dashed straight ahead, crashing into her.
The griffon blinked as the three little ponies simply bounced off of her. She roared at the three filly's, “WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING YOU STUPID PONIES! CAN'T YOU SEE I'M WALKING HERE! YOU'RE LUCKY I DON'T WASTE YOU!”
The griffon turned to talk to Rainbow Dash but stood face to face with the human. Even as big as she was the human still towered over the griffon and he had a look of pure, cold rage in his eyes.
He pointed at the CMC, “Apologize to them right now.” He seethed through clenched teeth.
Gilda laughed at the human, “Yeah right cus I'm really going to apologize to those loser ki-” The griffon was cut off as Mugen chopped her wind pipe with his hand. The griffon staggered and held a claw to her throat as Mugen flipped over her and with a twist, kicked her head straight down into the ground.
The simple two hit combo attracted a lot of attention from the ponies who were wandering the streets, the bystanders looked upon Mugen with both awe and fear.
As the griffon laid in the street coughing and sputtering for breath, Mugen raised his foot and slammed it on the griffons head, twisting his foot on the top of her skull, before hissing at her, “ I'm going to lift my foot, your going to apologize for yelling at children who were simply playing and thumped into you. You didn't even budge you little shit so I'm sure it didn't hurt.”
Mugen did as he said and lifted his foot, and Gilda struggled to raise her head to the CMC, “I-I'm sorry.” Before allowing her head to flop onto the ground with a groan.
Mugen smirked and said in a dangerous voice, “ You're lucky I don't waster YOU!”
The CMC shifted from hoof to hoof nervously as Mugen turned to them, “Are you kids alright?”
The CMC nodded their heads and all at once in a little squeak, “ We're fine mister Mugen, but did you have to beat up Gilda like that?”
Pinkie Pie piped up, “Yeah Mugen, Gilda's a meanie, but I don't think she deserved that.”
The question startled the man, but he stroked the little bit of fuzz on his beard and said, “Guess not, but she deserved to be taught some manners. Besides, it doesn't look like anyone here can stand her.”
The Cutie Mark Crusaders smiled a little and hugged the humans knobby legs before trotting off to who knows where.
…..
Mugen laughed as the mane six told them the spooky stories of the Everfree forest as they approached the forest in question.
“The animals take care of them selves!” Fluttershy squeaked, while hiding her face with her hooves.
“The plants grow on their own.” Applejack shuddered.
“The weather takes care of itself!” Rainbow Dash said in a voice while trying to spook the others.
Mugen laughed again, “All of that shit takes care of it self where I come from.”
Twilight gave him a curious look, “They do? That is so strange.”
Mugen chuckled and asked, “Why the hell are we here anyway?”
Twilight answered in an instant, as if expecting the question, “To introduce you to Zecora, shes a zebra. I'm sure she would simply love to meet you.”
Mugen merely nodded, wondering what the hell a zebra was as the group entered the forest. The ponies looked around nervously and Fluttershy jumped at practically everything. After jumping at the sound of a cricket, Mugen rolled his eyes and picked up the shy pegasus as if she weighed no more than a pillow and slung her over his back.
The pegasus eeped at first, but noticed it was Mugen and buried his face in Rarity's hoof stitched outfit.
The sound of something galloping at full speed broke the silence of the group and something zipped right by them.
A black and whit striped pony zoomed past without a look back and simply screamed “RUN!”
Twilight shouted at the running pony, “ZECORA WHATS WRONG?”
“URSA MAJOR!” was all the running pony replied with.
The ground shook violently, the sound of crashing trees and thumping feet emanated from the forest, the mane six paled.
“Oh my gosh if the Ursa Major keeps heading this way it'll come straight for Pony Ville!” Twilight managed to sputter out.
Mugen scowled as the rumbling came closer and closer, “What the hell is an ursa major?”
The trees directly in front of them collapsed and an enormous bear, with a hide that looked like a starry night, towered over the ponies still walking on all fours. The thing was gargantuan and Mugen whistled, impressed at its size.
The monster roared, shaking the ground with the very volume of its roar. Mugen glanced at the ponies next to him they were... terrified, frozen in place with sheer terror.
Mugen grunted as he came to a decision, “Hey Twi?”
Twilight shook her head, “ What Mugen?”
“Get going. Get every pony out of pony ville and get them somewhere safe. Take care of the CMC for me will ya?” Mugen ordered with a smug smirk.
Twilight and her friends gasped, “You aren't seriously going to fight an ursa major by yourself are you? THATS INSANE!”
Applejack nodded furiously, “Ah know you want to protect us sugar cube but-”
Mugen cut her off, and stepped forward, drawing his sword, “Get going.”
Pinkie Pie stepped up to Mugen, “ Pinkie Promise not to die! Stick a cupcake in your eye!”
Mugen raised an eye brow to see a sad look in the party mares eyes, something Mugen thought he'd never see. He smirked, “I promise not to die, stick a cup cake in my eye.”
Pinkie gave him a sad smile, and together with her friends, they fled into the Everfree forest, away from the ursa major and towards Pony Ville.
Mugen turned to the gigantic bear, which was three times larger than any home he'd seen in Pony Ville. He smirked and held aloft his middle finger to the monster, who sat growling at him, which itself made the earth under his feet rumble.
“This is gonna be fun.” Mugen smirked to himself and charged straight at the Ursa Major, who in turned raised a massive paw and began to jab it straight at Mugen.
…..
sorry this took awhile, I got swamped at school yesterday and when I went to upload it, the site was down...Here you go enjoy, leave comments, nitpick all that etc...
A Titanic Struggle
Mugen jumped over the claw jabbing at him, flipping over in the air and landing on the Ursa Major's arm. He immediately jabbed his sword deep into the flesh of the monster, a tide of astral crimson oozed out. It roared and raised its other massive, meaty paw to slap at him.
Mugen sprinted as fast as he could up the arm of the massive bear, running his blade clean through and up the arm of the monster. He crinkled his nose at the stench the strange bear gave off.
The monster swatted at him, and for Mugen it seemed as if it were moving in slow motion. At the last possible second he pulled his blade out of the arm of the monster with a sickening slurp, before leaping off of its arm.
As Mugen fell he jabbed his blade through the hide of the creature and used its flesh to slow his descent to the ground. He dropped onto the forest floor with a thud and immediately began to dart around under the Ursa Majors legs, slicing and slicing into...hide.
Mugen scowled, the hide is too thick for him to simply cut with the blade, he needed to stab as he had on the arm and this complicated things immeasurably.
The Ursa Major noticed him at last, darting around and between its legs, the bear seemingly smirked, and raised the paw closest to Mugen....and slammed down.
Mugen barely managed to dodge the colossal stomp, only for the monstrous bear to follow up with a stomp from its other other, and soon it was on all fours, stomping along in a rampage, hoping to get Mugen with its rampage.
Mugen dodged and weaved, he easily dodged the clumsy footfalls, what he was worried about were the large rocks, trees and debris being tossed around as if they weighed nothing.
Mugen dodged and dodged, wondering the creature would tire out when a tremendous pain jolted into from his back. Mugen shouted out in agony and spittle flung from his mouth as a log that was flinging about thudded straight into his back.
The Ursa Major swung down a meaty paw straight at him and Mugen could only wonder if his death would be painless. Then, the look Pinkie had given when he promised not to die blotted out all other thought from his mind.
Mugen stamped a foot on the ground and screamed out his challenge to the Ursa Major, “COME ON YOU MOTHER FUCKER!”
As the meaty paw came closer Mugen dodged to the side and with a wide swing of his blade, the blade sunk into the flesh of the paw. Mugen grasped his blade with two hands and carved an entire chunk of flesh out of the monster. Blood, blood that was colored like its hide, spurted out of the monster in great torrets.
The Ursa Major roared out in pain and retraced its paw, from the earth. As the creature milled over its wound, Mugen turned and fled into the forest, hoping the monster would follow. The sudden thudding and roaring of the creature behind him made the man smirk with triumph.
…..
“Our sister has left his business and is on her way here right now. Tell us, has Pony Ville been evacuated?” Princess Luna eyed the elements of harmony before, all of whom looked on edge, and with good reason.
Twilight piped up, “Yes princess all of Pony Ville has begun the journey to Canterlot.”
Luna nodded, “ And this....hewman....is fighting against the Ursa Major as we speak.”
A roar of extreme agony echoed throughout the town, the noise had come from the Ever Free forest.
Twilight couldn't speak so she simply nodded, worry and fear for the human knotted her stomach. He couldn't use magic, even with her magic she BARELY managed to get an Ursa Minor to leave Pony Ville and he was fighting an Ursa Major.
The very air inside Twilight's library home thickened with worry as the roars of pain continued to echo through out the town.
Princess Luna looked out in the general direction of the forest and said simply, “ Well from the sound of it...the Ursa Major is having its paws quite full with this...hewman. We think he can handle him self perfectly fine. Do not fret my little ponies.”
The mane six glanced at one another and smiles spread across their faces as they thought about it.
Pinkie Pie hopped up, a determined look on her face, “Yeah now lets go help Mugen fight that big Ol' Meanie!”
Princess Luna smiled as the mane six cheered out, and together they began to form a plan to help their hewman friend.
…..
The Ursa Major snapped its jaws furiously at the man. Struggling to get at the wily human in his cave. Mugen backed deeper into his cave, cursing at himself, “ Why the fuck did I run in here?” Mugen scowled backing deeper into the dank cave as the beast's maw bit through the rock of cave to get at him. Its foul breath rolled against Mugen in waves, rocking his senses around from the reek.
Mugen did something in the dank, mold ridden cave hes never really particularly good at, thinking. He racked brain for ideas as the bears jaws snapped, saliva frothing everywhere as it budged through the cave entrance, cracking it open more and more.
Mugen stroked his chin as an idea formed in his skull, he smirked. As the bears jaws snapped shut, in the split second before it opened again, Mugen dashed forward and sliced his sword straight across the bears nostrils, astral blood splashed onto him in a tidal wave of gore.
The blade plunged into soft flesh and Mugen pushed the blade through its nostril, cutting the nostrils off of the nose completely. The monster roared out in agony and its head ripped out of the cave and Mugen took his chance to dash through the opening in the cave.
Mugen sprinted as fast as his legs would carry past the Ursa Major who writhed on the ground, pawing at its nostriless nose, groaning in almost tangible agony. The bears eyes shot open and it jabbed a claw straight for Mugen.
Mugen's eyes widened as he sidestepped at the last moment, which was a little too late. The tip of one of the Ursa Mjors claw ripped through Mugens back, goring him and sending a splash of crimson to color the floor.
Mugen gasped aloud as mind numbing pain ripped through him. He tried to ignore the pain and quickened his pace as he darted through the trees of the forest, with a very pissed off Ursa Major hot on his heels.
…..
The Lavender unicorn, Twilight Sparkle, took in the carnage with extreme worry. Thick pools of astral colored blood were scattered everywhere, there were massive paw prints from, where the looks of it, the Ursa Major had been stomping frantically.
Applejack cried out in alarm, “What in the hay is that?” She stared at something on the ground as the group trotted up to investigate. Twilight gasped upon immediately realizing what it was.
Pinkie Pie looked at her friend worriedly, while Luna grimaced in the background. Twilight blinked and with a hearty sigh, “Its....Its blood, Mugens been hurt from the looks of it.”
Pinkie's mane instantly deflated with a whoosh, “Mugen promised he wouldn't die.” The party mare sniffled.
Twilight blinked in exasperation, “I never said anything about him dying Pinkie, I said he's hurt. Look over there, the Ursa Major barreled off in that direction. Do you know what that means? It means its chasing Mugen! We've got to help him!” Twilight stared straight into Pinkie's eyes as the party mare's man poofed out to its normal consistency.
Pinkie Pie jumped and screamed at the top of her lungs, “WELL COME ON WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR!?!!?”
…..
Mugen rolled forward as the bears massive claw slammed into the earth where he was but moments before. Sweat clung to him, his head was dizzy from loss of blood, and he gasped frantically while trying to breath.
Mugen sprinted as he tightened his make shift bandage, he had used Rarity's custom made shirt to bandage himself while hiding from the monster.
Mugens instinct buzzed and he dashed to the left almost immediately, dodging another swipe from the enraged Ursa Major.
Mugen spun around when he reached his destination and held the sword out directly in front of him, facing the Ursa Major directly. He laughed and stuck up his middle finger to the bear and shouted, “SUCK MY COCK YOU LITTLE SHIT!”
The bear didn't even slow down as it barreled toward him, waterfalls of blood and driblets of flesh falling from from all over it, its mouth frothed with a sickening blueish foam. Mugen smirked and darted forward as the creature charged into where he was but a moment ago...and instead fell down the cliff side behind him.
Mugen smirked and dashed over to the edge and jumped off towards the bear. The cliff wasn't that high compared to the Ursa Major but it was enough to cause damage, and it provided just the opening Mugen needed.
Mugen aimed himself and concentrated deeply as the wind whipped past him. Time seemed to slow down as the spot Mugen was aiming at rushed up to him....and with a sickening crunch he slammed his sword down into the bears head with his full weight behind it, plus a good fifteen foot drop.
If the Ursa Major hadn't been there it would've been a certain death drop for him. Mugen almost began to cheer...until the monster roared in agony, and then Mugen frowned as he realized he hadn't stabbed deep enough to penetrate the skull...but all this vanished in an instant as the Ursa Major simply shook its head.
Mugen was in free fall, death quickly rushed up to him when Mugen sneered, “FUCK YOU IF YOU THINK I'M GOING TO DIE THAT EASY.” Mugen shouted at no one in particular. He angled himself towards the Ursa Major and....grabbed onto a driblet of flesh hanging from one the wounds on its arms.
The Ursa Major howled out in explosive agony as Mugen used its own flesh as a rope to slow his fall. The monster shook its body violently sending Mugen flying off into the forest. M
Mugen gasped out in pain as he landed onto the forest floor, but he couldn't afford to stop moving, he ignored the pain of the skin hanging off of torso, allowing crimson to splatter the floor...and darted off deeper into the forest, the angry roars of the Ursa Major chasing after him.
…..
Fluttershy let the tears fall freely as more and more of Mugen's blood splattered and mixed with the monsters blood. No Pony said a word as they reached....a cliff side. Pinkie Pie and her friends cried out as they saw Mugen's blood trail end at it's edge.
Luna walked to the edge suspicious, as the elements of harmony cried in each others hooves, not wanting to contain their grief. Luna did a double take at the ground below here and let out a hearty laugh...which brought tears into her eyes.
The mane six all glared daggers at the Princess of the Moon who smiled at them a held a hoof pointing down below. The Mane six trotted to the edge and gasped at what they saw...followed by sighs of relief. No Pony said a word as they saw the trail of destruction left in the wake of a chasing Ursa Major.
….
Mugen sprinted as fast his feet would carry him, his blood falling in little arcs, painting his trail crimson. The skin torn off his torso stretched from his chest down to his groin and burned unbearably as he ran. He scowled at the loss of his sword and muttered curses at himself.
He skidded to a halt and swore a string of curses at himself as he found himself....right in front of a cliff with no where to go. He looked around frantically thinking of a solution...and then he smirked and reached into the dirt surrounding the cliff and began to coat himself with it.
When the dirt touched his blood it almost instantly turned into a bloody mud mix and Mugen laughed as he quickly rolled around in the dirt, his entire body caked with mud. Once his whole body was colored the same as the cliff he began to frantically climb up it, climbing as quickly as he could.
Mugen constantly glanced over his shoulder, watching the Ursa Major lumber towards the cliff where Mugen was at. It couldn't see him as he climbed, but it seemed to smirk when it noticed that he was trapped.
Mugen quietly and slowly climbed as the Ursa Major approached on all fours. The thing glanced around in confusion, stopping at the end of Mugen's blood trail, it realized too late what was happening as Mugen let go of the cliff and let himself fall straight at the monsters head. The Monsters head scanned the cliff from the bottom and was quickly going up the path Mugen had taken.
Time seemed to stop as Mugen slammed his feet directly into the sword hilt, and with a sickening crunch the blade sank another three feet into the creatures skull. Astral blood sprayed out in a tidal wave of blood as the blade penetrated the Ursa Majors skull and its brain. The thing began to fall to its side, dead, as Mugen hung onto the hilt of his sword.
Mugen groaned as he collided with the ground next to the dead Ursa Major. He looked at its lifeless body and staggered up, with both hands and a sickening sound he pulled the sword out of the creatures head and limped over it's face. W
Without pasuing Mugen carved out its eyes and began to stab as frantically as he could, making absolutely sure the monster was dead, before limping over to the cliff wall and collapsing against it. Mugen looked up at the sky as he coughed up more blood, his whole body screaming in agony.
“Well...this looks like the end doesn't it?” Mugen said to no one. “Well....looks like I need to stick a cup cake in my eye.” Mugen sputtered out, along with blood and spittle.
“Well partner, ah reckon you won't be getting an cup cakes in your eye soon, cus I sure as hay ain't gonna let no friend of mine die.” A familiar drawl said from the other side of the Ursa Majors corpse.
….
No Pony said a word as they finally saw it. The blue blob at the end of the trail was massive, and even more blood, both astral and crimson painted the ground leading up to it.
Twilight gulped, “is it just me, or does that blob look like it isn't moving at all?” she asked her friends nervously.
No Pony answered but they all broke out sprinting, only slowing down when it became abundantly clear that the Ursa Major was....dead.
Rarity was the first to break the silence, “Mugen...won? Mugen slew the Ursa Major?” The white unicorn asked in complete and utter disbelief. Twilight went to say something when they heard it, a sickening wheezing and groaning coming from around the usra major.
The whole group trotted around the corpse nervously to fin Mugen, slumped against the cliff wall, he was covered in mud and blood painted the floor surrounding him. He was staring into the sky, completely oblivious to them, as he rasped, “Well...this looks like the end doesn't it?” He coughed and blood spurted out of his mouth. “Well...looks like I need to stick a cup cake in my eye.”
Applejack spoke up, “Well partner, ah reckon you won't be getting a cup cake in you eye soon, cus I sure as hay ain't gonna let no friend of mine die.”
Mugen looked at the group arrayed before him, and laughed. “Well...howdy partner.” The human drawled just like Applejack.
Fluttershy nearly sprinted up to Mugen and began to wipe at the mud and gasped in shock as she uncovered the skin hanging off of his chest.
Mugen smirked, “Wait til you see my back.”
Fluttershy looked behind him as the human struggled to lean forward and she cried out at the damage underneath the mud.
She went to say something but Mugen cut her off, “I need to confess. So I can go to hell with a clear mind.” Mugen coughed up more blood and continued, “Back home they call me Vagrant Mugen, I have a massive bounty on my head for Murder, thievery, piracy and a brief stint as a bandit.”
….
Sorry about this... been busy... HERE YOU GO... EAT THIS PIECE OF FUCKING CANDY AND DRINK THAT SODA! WHY DON'T YOU APPRECIATE ANY OF THE GIFTS I SHOWER ON YOU!!!!?!?!
This is one may have some errors, i did proof read but hey, I'm human not Twilight here. comment and all this good fun stuff i need the feed back
Punishment and Retribution
The group gawked at Mugen. Applejack looked the human straight in the eye, peeking into the depths of his soul hiding behind his eyes...and she recoiled in fear.
Mugen chuckled, “I didn't want to take the lives of the people I killed, but I was left with no choice. In order to survive to see the next morning, I stole and I killed.” Mugen coughed up more blood and groaned a little.
Applejack narrowed her eyes and continued to stare into Mugen's eyes. After a minute she sighed and turned to her friends, “Well, he's telling the truth. He's killed, and like he said he didn't like it.”
The group of friends shifted from hoof to hoof, unsure of what to think, except for Fluttershy who continued to look over Mugens wounds.
Luna squinted her eyes and trotted up directly in front of the human, looking him over. Mugen grunted as she approached, “Who the hell is this?” The ponies gave a worried glance and the princess merley rolled her eyes, “I am Luna, princess of the moon.” She looked him straight in the eye, and her horn glowed with magic. Mugen was about to ask what the hell she was meant, when his entire life rushed past through his head.
He gasped out in pain, from his body, from his mind being picked apart without restraint by someone he had never met. Mugen groaned as his memories up until that point had been mercilessly ripped from his head. The Princess's eyes shot open and she ran up to a tree unloading the contents of he stomach on it.
The princess continued to hurl for about a minute, only stopping to cough and gag. The mane six trotted up to the princess and inquired to what was wrong and she simply waved them off. When she was finally done, she turned to face Mugen and stared him down with the blankest of expressions.
Mugen sighed despite the pain, and wondered what she was going to do to him. Maybe he'd be beheaded? Nah. Ponies are too innocent for something like that. Then what would they do with him?
Luna coughed to get his attention and when he turned they locked eyes, “You failed to mention how you had absolutely no family while you grew up on the streets with absolutely nothing. I can't even say that you had the clothes on your back, because all you had was a small loin cloth. You did say you had killed, you didn't say that if you didn't kill them, they'd kill you. You also seemingly forgot about how drunk you would get on stolen booze every now and then.”
Mugen's eyes shot open, he expected her to pick apart absolutely everything he had done, to point and call him a foul demon unworthy of the lowest pit of hell. Mugen sighed and simply looked the princess in the eye, “Well....what are you gonna do with me?”
Every Pony perked up, and looked at Luna who milled over her thoughts in her head, her face an incredible poker face. Until eventually she sighed, “ I honestly won't do anything without my sisters consent but Mugen....you are a troubling case. I know you would never harm a single hair in any of our ponies manes, but you slaughtered so many of your own kind. Your violent past cannot simply be over looked despite your reasons why and what you've done for Pony Ville since you've arrived her.”
The princess spoke the truth completely and without any exaggerations either way. Mugen smirked as he realized how much he liked her already. Mugen gasped as a sharp pain grabbed his heart and he coughed up blood before he could say anything.
Luna reared back and her expression turned to that of pure compassion, her horn began to glow again, “ Sleep Mugen, you need your rest. I will discuss your fate very, Very thoroughly with my sister, the princess of the sun.” And in an instant Mugen was snoring in sleep.
…..
Twilight kept glancing up to the princess of the night, she debated heavily with the questions she was going to ask in her head. She had no idea what to ask, or if she should even ask her questions. She would often open her mouth to ask, but would quickly clamp it shut.
Luna continued to stare out of the hospital window, Mugen asleep on the bed nearby. The princess noticed Twilight's curiosity and smirked, “What is it Twilight Sparkle? You should know by now that you have the right to simple answeres.”
Twilight was startled out of her inner mental debate and her friends ears perked up looking to the moon princess, eager to hear the answers she would give. “Well...did Mugen really...k-k-kill his own kind? How many did he kill and...why? I just don't understand why any pony could want to kill.” Twilight vented out in frustration at the lack of understanding.
Luna turned to Twilight a grim look plastering her face, “ Yes Mugen has killed, but not without good reason, well for most of his kills anyway. As to how many.... I lost count after about one hundred. Understand though Twilight Sparkle, this man has killed, this man has stolen and this man has gambled. But all of it he did simply to survive a world that wanted him to die from birth. His home was terrible, lonely and violent. Children, like Mugen growing up, were starving in the streets and had to resort to stealing. The crimes gathered and snow balled until Mugen....until Mugen killed his first man.”
Twilight fidgeted nervously, she had no idea what to think, what to believe. The princess said that Mugen killed with good reason, but....he still killed them. Luna seemed to sense Twilight's discomfort and put a hoof comfortingly around her.
Rainbow Dash, without looking up, said very gloomily, “I hope....I hope Princess Celestia and you judge Mugen fairly....after all....he did a lot for us all.”
“You needn't worry about fairness from me my little pony, I judge all fairly and equally, no matter their crimes.” The very regal voice of Princess Celestia came from the hospital doorway.
…..
Voices. Mugen heard voices in discussion around him as light creaked into his eyes, blasting his skull with immeasurable pain.
“Twilight, my dearest student, I understand completely why you are so confused and you have every right to be. This man saved Pony Ville...he saved a friend dear to you and... and he committed terrible crimes in his own world. Luna has shown me his memories, she and I will discuss him when we are alone.” A regal voice pierced Mugens skull and for the first time in years....he felt true fear at the voice.
“I know Princess, I-I just hope you aren't too hard on him. I mean he's become a friend to us.” The familiar voice of Twilight Sparkle registered in Mugens brain.
He snickered and opened his eyes, getting looks from every pony in the room. The first one he noticed was a horse sized pony right next to his bedside. He was surprised at how distorted his hearing appeared to be, seeing as to how he thought she was on the other side of the room. This pony, he guessed, was the princess, judging from the crown, the flowing rainbow mane, and her majestic wings and horn.
Mugen snickered again, but couldn't stop himself from patting the Princess on the back, he stroked up and down the back of her neck like he would a horse and it threw her off guard for a moment, surprisingly she didn't get mad.
Mugen grunted as he tried to sit up only for the Princess's horn to glow a golden aura, before gently forcing back to laying down.
“Vagrant Mugen...you are not ready to so much as sit up, but know you will judged fairly. Despite your heinous crimes, you still saved the lives of so many ponies by killing the Ursa Major.” The Princess said in an even tone, she was smiling at Mugen which made him scowl.
“You can cut the shit, I already know whats gonna happen. You're gonna call together a big crowd, and tell them about how horrible a monster I am... so just tell me when I'm gonna be executed. Oh, I'd also like to know where my head is going on display.”
The mane six gasped and began to spout apologies to the princess until she cut them off sharply with a hoof. The Princess's face didn't change at all, “Mugen, your world is a cruel and dark place, we are not depraved enough to simply execute, and we most certainly do not put bodies on display.”
Mugen cocked an eyebrow, damn, the bitch didn't even blink at what he had said. What was her deal?
“Your probably wondering why I've shown no reaction to your little statement. Well it's because after going through your life's memories many times over, I realized you are what you would call an ass hole and would more than likely try something like this.”
Mugen actually laughed and Celestia poked him in the chest, still smiling and finished, “ You Mugen, are an ass hole.”
Mugen laughed even harder and then groaned as he stretched the skin, Fluttershy practically pounced and began to comfort him with soothing motions on his shoulder. Mugen blinked, when did Fluttershy start caring about him so deeply. Mugen coughed and blood stained his hand, Applejack noticed and grabbed a tissue with her mouth and cleaned the blood off of him.
Mugen glanced around confused as Pinkie Pie pulled the covers up over his chest, as Twilight levitated a glass of water to his lips and as Rainbow Dash flew behind him, she gently lifted his head to drink and fluffed the pillows underneath before letting his head plop onto the pillow.
“What the-” Mugen muttered before Pinkie Pie cut him off with that familiar smile on her face, “ We don't care if you were a big meanie pants back in your world. Your still our friend and we WILL take care of you. I Pinkie Promise, stick a cupcake in my eye.”
Mugen chuckled and looked at the Princess, “So what are you gonna do with me honey?” Mugen purposely said flirtatiously, complete with a wink and a flirty smile.
The Princess merely chuckled at him and replied in as flirty a tone to throw him off, “My Sister and I will discuss it in due time...but for now my dear Mugen...” Her horn began to glow and Mugen began to snore almost immediately.
….
“The Nobles have already been informed my dear sister, it was their right to know that someone who can so easily kill is in their presence.” Celestia said blankly to her sister, “And they will want us to punish him, more specifically to banish him.”
Luna stared out over her moon, her beautiful moon that Mugen had appreciated so much growing up. She sighed, “What ever are we going to do Tia, I firmly believe he deserves a second chance. We were taught to love and tolerate and to forgive. Tia, you saw it in his memories, how deeply he cared for the little Cutie Mark Crusaders. He CAN change, he can be redeemed. Give him this chance, please Tia, it would devastate the Elements if Mugen were banished without a second chance.” Luna was practically begging her sister near the end.
Celestia stared out over the moon alongside her sister, basking in its beautiful rays, “I know dear Luna, but so much can easily go so wrong if we give him that chance. I saw just as much as you did sister, but did you see how violent he became with Gilda?”
Luna looked at her sister incredulosuly, “ Yes but do you forget he only did that for, again, the CMC.”
Celestia sighed, “I know this little sister, but he became so very violent, imagine if he loses control.”
Luna sighed, easily seeing the picture of Mugen over reacting. “Fine, your right dear Tia. But I still believe he can be changed to good.”
Celestia smiled as a very simple idea popped into her head, one that would infuriate nobility of Canterlot while still fulfilling her promise of some punishment, it would appeal to the Elements and it would be good for Mugen.
Luna recognized that smile...it was the smile she gave when she came up with something devious.
Celestia told her....Luna gasped...and then laughed hysterically.
…..
Mugen grunted as he held onto Twilight for support, he was in the grand hall of Canterlot, Celestia's throne room, surrounded by royal guards...and booing nobleman.
Mugen rolled his eyes as the crowd of fancy ponies who've never had to struggle to survive continued to protest his very existence. “QUIET!!! You ponies call yourselves noble and you act like common ruffians!” The sudden outburst from Rarity caught Mugen off guard, and even more surprising the nobles looked embarassed but continued to stare daggers at the human.
Mugen snickered as his escort brought him directly to two thrones, one was shaped like the rising sun the other like the rising moon, both were fitted for an Alicorn to sit on. The Princess of the sun relaxed in her sun burst throne and Luna lounged upon her moon throne, coming to attention when Mugen actually bowed before them. Which caught them both by surprise.
Celestia cleared her throat, “Stand, Vagrant Mugen.” Mugen did as he was bid, hands shackled behind his back, the Elements of Harmony lined up horizantally behind him, each with a somber expression on their faces, even Pinkie Pie's hair had deflated.
Celestia stared Mugen down with the best damn poker face he had ever seen. “Vagrant Mugen, you must be punished for the crimes you committed in your home world.” The Elements let out an audible groan of pent up despair, Pinkie began to cry.
“But your actions, regarding the Ursa Major and saving all of Pony Ville cannot simply be over looked as well. You put your life on the line for strange folk and willingly admitted to heinous crimes afterward. That too cannot be ignored.”
Celestia took a brief pause, staring into Mugens soul, it felt like it to him anyway. The noble ponies of Canterlot eagerly awaited the word for him to be banished to the sun, or thrown into the dungeons. Celestia...allowed a smirk to cover her face.
“Which is why you shall spend a full year amongst the Elements of Harmony. You shall spend two months amongst each element, learning the magic of friendship and earning your redemption. You will give me a weekly report on friendship, just like my dear Twilight Sparkle.”
The mane six literally jumped in the air with startle joy, laughing and high hoofing one another, while the Canterlot nobles gasped as out rage plastered their rich, smug faces.
“Your first two months will be spent with Honesty, the following with Loyalty, both of which go hoof in hoof, or in your case, hand in hand. After, you will live with generosity and then kindness, again, the two are linked. And your last two will be with Laughter and Magic.” The Princess raised a hoof to each of the Elements, in turn, all of whom had stupid looking grins on their faces. M
Mugen glanced at the nobility of Canterlot, seeing their looks of pure outrage he busted out in an uncontrollable fit of laughter. Celestia looked at Mugen and where he was facing and a knowing smile came over her own lips. Her horn glowed and Mugen was lifted over to her.
Mugen regained his composure and looked the Princess in the eye, “Well, Shining Armor do you agree with the punishment I have prepared?” A big, purple unicorn emerged from Celestia's side and looked the human straight in the eye, “Well...if my little sister and you trust him Princess, well, its fine by me.”
Twilight smiled deeply at the unicorn and Mugen, glanced back and forth between the two, snickering at the realization.
Celestia turend to the alicorn on her other side, a pinkish one that was much smaller than Celestia and Luna, with a purple, white and pink striped mane, and asked, “And you princess Cadence?” The Alicorn in question smiled warmly at Mugen, “I agree, especially if my love does. Mugen couldn't help but grin.
Mugen was set on the ground and the shackles binding him were shatterd and....no it couldn't be.... Mugen's precious sword hovered down into his hand. It was completely cleaned and repaired...but why would she.... Mugen looked at the Princess confused.
Her face had gone cold, her gaze bored down deep into Mugen's soul and Celestia nearly bellowed, “And the last part of your punishment Mugen...” Every Pony glanced around nervously, waiting with baited breath....
Celestia slammed her hoof on the ground and her horn radiated magic and... Mugens shadow...began to blur and.... move.
Mugen leaped back as his shadow peeled itself out of the ground and stared at him, its eye's blacker than the rest of its body. Mugen grunted, understanding immediately what was happening. The mane six and every pony in the throne room stepped back as shadow Mugen drew its sword.
Mugen eyed the shadow before him as Celestia called out from behind him, “ Prove it Mugen, prove your willingness to changed by fighting your deepest, darkest desires. Slay it, and your punishment will go as planned, but know this, whatever you do to the shadow, you do yourself. Are you willing to kill yourself for redemption Mugen?”
Mugen cracked his neck, thinking as the audience gasped at Celestia's spell. Mugen's eyes darted open as he came to his decision and he dashed forward. Shadow Mugen mimicked him exactly and dashed forward swinging his blade at the same angle, their blades met with a clang.
Mugen was already thankful that Celestia had healed his wounds with magic on the trip to Canterlot. He stepped back and swung his blade around wildly at his shadow self. Blades clashed and rang with an oddly metallic sound. M
Mugen jumped back only to dart forward again swinging his blade from side to side in a frantic attempt to break through his shadow's guard. The shadow mirrored him as the two drew closer together and at the last minute Mugen flipped into the air and aimed his blade...only to discover Shadow Mugen doing the same thing. Mugen felt a solid blade slice through his chest as he barely dodged the swing at him and managed to stab clean through the left shoulder of the shadow...and he immediately gasped out in pain as he felt a stab in his own left shoulder.
Mugen landed feet planted and slid back, towards the throne. He panted and looked at the thin cut across his chest...and the stab hole in his left shoulder. He looked at the shadow Mugen, a stab in its shoulder....but no slice across its chest. So...only Mugen could hurt himself by stabbing his shadow. Not fair.
Mugen stood up and the shadow Mugen mirrored him. Mugen stroked his beard in thought, wait if Shadow Mugen fights the same way he does... “What if I fought like...” Mugen smirked as held his sword out....he planted his feet apart....and just like Jin he grasped the hilt with both hands.
The crowd stared at Mugen, and shadow Mugen who simply cocked its head. Sweat beaded on Mugen's brow as he waited. Mugen thought and waited and thought some more until some impatient ponies in the audience coughed. As the shadow blinked for a quarter of a second, Mugen immediately surged forward...but as the shadow Mugen charged forward Mugen didn't strike while his shadow did.
Mugen grunted as the shadow sword bit into the flesh of his already hurt shoulder, and reached up grabbing Shadow Mugens blade at the hilt, digging the blade into his own flesh. Mugen raised his sword while the shadow could do nothing and....lobbed its head off.
Mugen stepped back expecting his own head to topple off, expecting his blood to paint the floor, but instead...
“Well done Mugen. You probably wonder why your not dead. The answer, the spell would heal you instantly if you dealt a death blow to your shadow self. Congratulations Mugen, you earned your chance at redemption.
….
To be continued......
Honesty
Mugen couldn't help but smile as Applebloom nuzzled against his hand with a look of pure bliss on her face. Applejack smirked at Mugen, “Alrighty then Mugen, in order to teach you the value of honesty, then ah reckon the best way to teach you to be honest, is to well...not lie the entire time your here. Got that sugar cube?” Applejack couldn't help but chuckle at the fact that Mugen had already flipped Applebloom on her back and was tickling her underbelly.
The little filly was in tears of laughter as she cried out, the Apple family couldn't help but smile at the sight of a “hardened” criminal playing so care free with a foal.
Applejack shook her head and coughed...Mugen continued to play with the filly, now holding her out with one hand, tickling her while dangling her upside down as the filly squealed in delight.
Applejack grunted, knowing she wouldn't get anywhere with words... and bucked Mugen in the rear. Mugen shot up dropping the filly on the ground and howled in pain, “MY ASS!!! WOMAN!!!! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!!?!” Mugen whirled around shouting at the farm pony.
Applejack just laughed and replied cooly, “Well I needed to git your attention somehow.” Mugen continued to fume...while rubbing his ass. Applejack chuckled and continued, “ ah reckon the best way to teach you to be honest and all....is forbid you from lying at all....for the entire two months you'll be living and working with me.”
Applejack expected hot protests, she expected him to start cussing up a storm...but her jaw dropped when he merely shrugged and continued to play with Applebloom, now tossing her in the air before catching her as she giggled in bliss.
Applejack smirked and muttered under her breath, “This guy just gits weirder and weirder.” Before bucking Mugen in the ass again to get him to start working with them in the apple fields.
….
Mugen squinted off in the distance at the barn on the hill, he eyed it suspiciously. Applejack had adamantly refused to let him get so much as near the damn place all day. He sighed in defeat as he gave up thinking what she was hiding in there and continued to trudge the plow along the dirt.
Something blurred by right behind him, something that tore through him with an after blast of wind and nearly bowled him over, something unmistakably...pink. He glanced as the blur disappeared inside the barn, the slam of the door echoing all the way to Mugen.
Mugen blinked and continued to plow, sweat blurred his vision and he struggled to pull the plow through the field. Suddenly a rainbow blur knocked him around, followed by a lavender...and a white...and a yellow blur zoomed right by him before slamming the door of the barn before he could begin chasing them.
“GOD DAMNIT WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT SHIT!!!” Mugen shouted. “WHAT YER DAMN MOUTH MUGEN AND GIT BACK TO WORK!” Applejack almost immediately shouted.
Mugen whirled around and found Applejack snickering behind him. The scent of apples penetrated his sense, he noticed the sweat glistening off of her coat making the farm mare sparkle in the sunlight....Mugen shook his head. What the fuck?
Applejack continued to snicker, “Ah'm a...goin up to tha' barn to uhhh...help with renovations! Yeah...that's it. Stay outta my shed- ah mean barn. Got that Mugen? Don't uhhh...want you getting hurt in there.”
Applejack eyed Mugen nervously as he practically bore into her soul with his gaze. “You told me I ain't allowed to lie so I'm not gonna lie when I say I think your full of bull shit.”
Applejack smiled even more nervously...before zooming by him as fast she could.
Mugen rolled his eyes and grunted before continuing to plow.
….
Mugen wiped the sweat off his brow, holding his shirt in his hand so the breeze would caress his bare chest as he cooled down. Mugen scowled as he heard some pony trot up behind, judging from the sound of her hoof falls he guessed it was Applejack.
“I'm taking a break woman, hot damn, ain't you ever heard of a break before.” Mugen growled at her, refusing to turn around. Applejack chuckled, “Well ah was actually coming to git you fer a break. You've been working hard and the sun's bout to set so Big Mac will take over for ya from here. Come on over here, Ah wanna show you summing.”
Mugen cocked an eye brow but oblidged and followed behind the orange farm mare. He couldn't help but notice her trot nervously, consistently glancing back at him with a nervous smile.
Something closer to his waist in front of him caught his attention, the rhythmic motions, the gyrating movements....and the Mugen shook his repeatedly and actually slapped himself as he realized it was Applejacks ass.
What the fuck? Mugen thought to himself, as they reached the barn door that Applejack had been keeping him out of all day and had constantly brought up how he shouldn't go anywhere near it since he got here from Canterlot this morning.
Mugen frowned and voiced his thoughts, “ What are we doing here. Didn't you tell me not to come here at all....EVER!” He completed his thought him waving his hands as if the place were haunted as Applejack had pointed out earlier...only for him to point out she had said it was under renovations and she her story back to that real quick.
Applejack smiled sheepishly and creaked the door open slowly... it was pitch black...and Applejack straight pushed him inside.
“SURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPRISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” There were dozens of Ponies inside the barn as light flashed in Mugens eyes, blinding him for a moment. He blinked as his eyes adjusted to the light and the first thing he noticed was the ridiculous banner that hung from one end of the barn to the other, and he laughed hysterically.
Mugen doubled over in laughter at the banner, every pony looked at the human in confusion as tears blurred his vision with laughter.
“Mugen...don't you like my surprise party?” A sad sounding Pinkie Pie voiced next to him. Mugen stood up and cleared his throat as he pointed at the banner...and had to choke back another giggle. “I love the surprise Pinks...but its just... * chuckle * how do you expect me to read that when I can't even read my own language.” Mugen broke into laughter and Pinkie cheered right back up.
But not the other ponies, who all stared at him incredulously. Twilight trotted up mouth agape and in an unbelieving tone, “ You mean you can't read...at all?” Mugen nodded at the lavender mare as he continued to kneel over laughing. Twilight shook her head and almost said something but Pinkie popped outta no where right in front of Mugen. “The sign is really super speacial....cus I wanted to have multiple parties for you but I realized we had forgotten your welcome party and others.... soooooooooooooooooooooooo I combined them all into one. The sign says ' Welcome Mugen to you thanks for saving us from a big scary meanie pants ursa major and for saving Applebloom for super mean timber wolves and thank you for keeping your pinkie promise and WELCOME TO PONY VILLE'” Pinkie Pie doubled over for breath as she struggled to breath after the long winded speech.
Mugen doubled over into laughter again he repeated the ridiculous title in his head....and at that the party began.
…..
Mugen sipped at his punch wishing it was Sake and instead of balloons, he wished they were strippers with head sized bo- “Hey Mugen did you really mean that about not being able to read at all?” The voice of Twilight said right in his ear.
Mugen cracked his neck, “ Well I can sign my name but that's it, sooooo yeah.” Twilight trotted off muttering to herself a look of pure disbelief upon her face. That's when Mugen noticed it across on the other side of the barn. He smirked at the scene and sighed in utter disbelief.
Big Mac would trot up to Fluttershy, blushing deep enough for Mugen to see it despite his red face from the other side of the barn....only to trot nervously around while Fluttershy's eyes would dart around. She would see Big Mac looking away, doing the same thing the pegasus was doing before. Fluttershy would trot up nervously to him, her face red as a beat only for her to squeak and spin around....for Big Mac to start the cycle anew.
Mugens smile cracked across his face and he stroked his chin deviously.... Flutter babe and Big Mac big co- “You really can't read darling!? That's absolutely dreadful!” Rarity had appeared by Mugens right. The man looked to her and nodded absent mindedly. “Sorry to dart Rari-babe but a stallion is in desperate need of my help right now.”
The unicorn shook her head, eyes blinking, “Rari-babe?”
Mugen walked straight up to Big Mac and put a hand right on the big guys neck. Big Mac nearly jumped out of his skin in surprise but Mugen quickly steered him off to a corner of the barn far away from any eavesdroppers.
Mugen smiled at Big Mac who looked around nervously, “I'm gonna cut straight to the pont. You like her don't you?” Mugen eyed Fluttershy who was nervously glancing around the barn, looking for Big Mac no doubt.
Big Mac followed Mugens gaze and sighed in defeat, “Eeyup.” Mugen's grin cracked further. “Well there big guy, I'm gonna help you out. Men gotta look out for other men ya know? I mean stallions.”
Big Mac eyed him suspiciously, “O-okay.”
Mugen pumped his arm in victory, “ Alright operation get Flutter babe and Big Mac together is a go.” Mugen smirked and starting punching the air.
Big Mac cocked an eye brow at him but sat on his haunches saying nothing.
Mugen looked at the working stallion, “Alright big guy you gotta be direct. Ask her to dance with you...tonight...right now. You do this and you'll earn loads a points with her.”
Big Mac nearly freaked out, “ Ask her to dance? Don't y'all realize how hard thats gonna be.” Mugen cocked the big red stallion a smile. “Just go!” Mugen slapped Big Mac on the back sending him a few steps towards his target. Big Mac glanced back nervously as Fluttershy eeped upon seeing him and spinning around abruptly. Mugen nodded and gave him a shooing motions...and Big Mac reluctantly agreed.
Mugen smiled as the stallion trotted up to Fluttershy, he noticed him mutter something to her...and Fluttershy.... nervously twitched and....gave a quick nod. The shy pegasus began to move around in rhythmic circles with Big Mac and Mugen nearly jumped up in the air.
“Whats got you so happy Mugen? I know Pinkie's parties are awesome but I didn't think you go for it.” Rainbow Dash and the others, apart from Fluttershy, surrounded Mugen. Mugen smirked and nearly started to lie before Applejack shoved a hoof straight into his mouth.
Mugen normally would've been pissed beyond beliefe but all he could think about was how her hoof tasted like apples. What the fuck?
“Ah told ya before Mugen, absolutely no lying. Ya hear me?” Applejack looked him in the eyes, and he sighed past the hoof in his mouth in defeat. She took it out and he nearly blurted out, “Big Mac has a crush so I'm helping him out in winning Flutter babes heart.”
“Flutter babe?” Twilight asked Mugen suspiciously. The man shrugged, and pointed back to Big Mac who had a humongous smile on his face as he danced with Fluttershy, she smiled and moved her body in rhythm.
“Wow Mugen, how'd you manage that?” Rainbow Dash asked, scraping her jaw off the floor.
Mugen smirked at his success and didn't say a thing.
….
A large hoof slammed into Mugen's chest knocking the wind out of him. Mugen nearly punched out but stopped his fist as it neared Big Mac's face.
“I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST YA'LL TO KEEP MA SECRET!” Big Mac seethingly whispered.
Mugen scowled, “Well your sister absolutely forbade me from lying and wouldn't let me say anything until I agreed to. She kinda shoved her hoof in my mouth.” Mugen fumed, and thought about how delicious Applejacks apple flavored hoof was. What the fuck? “Besides, I made them Pinkie Pie swear not to tell anyone. I also made them swear not to interfere with my plans for you.”
Big Mac blinked in shock, “ Oh....well ah'm mighty sorry I hit ya like that. Applejack just wished me luck with her friends and ah reckon ah just over reacted.
Mugen smirked, “ No problem.” Before yawning and laying back to sleep.
…..
Mugen pulled the plow with an annoyed grunt. How many fucking fields do they need to be plowed. When he heard the excited squeak of a very particular shy pegasus from behind him. Mugen glanced over his shoulder to see Fluttershy with her hoof in the dirt, looking anywhere besides Mugen.
“H-hey Ummmm Mugen, could I talk to you while you...uhmmm work...if thats alright with you of course.” Mugen grunted and began to pull on the plow again.
…..
“Oh my gosh Mugen...he's so strong and handsome...and he could have any pony he wants! I was so happy when he asked me to dance last night....Oh Mugen...don't tell any pony about how I like Big Mac okay?”
Mugen continued to smirk as he pulled the unbelievably heavy plow behind him. Mugen simply nodded as he pushed, the sweat dripping into his eyes. He had to supress a laugh as Fluttershy continued to gush about Big Mac.
….
Mugen slapped one of the rears of the cows and simply yelled, “Keep it moving ladies!” The cow in question oofed and glared at him from over her shoulder as they continued to mill towards their sleeping quarters.
Howling. Very familiar howling echoed throughout the valley.
“Applebloom! Applejack!” Mugen shouted into the crowd of cows.
“Ah know Mugen ah heard. Applebloom get up to barn right quick! Don't look back no matter what!” The farm mare emerged at Mugen's right as she spoke up over the panicking cows.
“But sis'-” Applejack cut her off, “Just go!”
Mugen grimaced as he faced the edge of the forest, pairs of yellow eyes glared back from within the depths of the trees.
….
Mugen hopped onto Applejack's back and used her to spin around kicking two of the timber wolves along the snout. He whipped his sword around a second later chopping off their muzzles. Mugen prepared to strike down another of the wolves as it jumped at him, saliva frothing at its lips.
A pair of legs slammed into the ribs of the wolf in mid air and Applejack whistled, “Gotta love Buck McGillycuddy and Kicks McGee.” Mugen laughed and swept his sword over top of Applejack's hat cutting into one of the timber wolves.
“Get outta her Applejack, I got this.” Mugen grinned into the eyes of the snarling Timber wolves that surrounded them.
Applejack huffed from behind him, “Ah sure as hay don't leave non of mah friends behind.” Mugen turned to scowl at the earth pony. Damn girl stubborn as hell...and can fight good too. What a woman. Wait, what?
Mugen was snapped out of it as a Timber Wolf lunged at him. Mugen laughed as he side stepped and swung his sword down, cutting the charging wolf in half.
He spun around and dove back into the fray of oncoming enemies.
….
Mugen and Applejack panted, sweat drenching their bodies as the Timber Wolves skulked back into the forest, leaving their dozen fallen comrades behind. Mugen turned to Applejack, “You got guts kid. And you know how to fight, I like that.” Applejack looked at him tiredly, “Ah sure as sugar ain't not kid, I am twenty years old Mugen, and ah would expect you to treat me like it.”
Mugen cocked an eye brow, “Are you really fucking older than me. Your twenty? Fuck!One year older than me, are you shitting me?”
Applejack did a double take, still panting heavily, “ Your only nineteen sugar cube? Yah sure as hay don't act like it.”
The two laughed together, tears flowing from their eyes. They laughed for minutes on end, until Applejack tried to stand up...only to immediately collapse. “Aw shoot, ah'm exhausted.”
Mugen chuckled and lifted the protested farm mare and carried her up to the farm.
….
Mugen groaned in pleasure as a familiar voice drawled from on top of him, “ Right there sugar, thats the spot, OOOOOOOOOOOOOH!” Mugen peeked through his eyes....to find a beautiful woman riding him.
Her skin smelled delightfully of apples, her hair, everything on her smelled of sweet, sweet apples. He wouldn't mind that scent in his nose if it was there the rest of his life. FUCK! He couldn't see her breasts past her long, blonde hair blocking the view, but, hey, he wasn't complaining.
The woman moaned and rocked her hips back and forth again....and let her head peek down at Mugen, a cow boy hat on top of her head, emerald green eyes and three very familiar freckles, “Well what ya waiting for sugar cube, get to ridin.” Human apple jack said lustily, licking her lips.
….
Mugen shot up, nearly sending the cuddling filly at his side toppling to the floor. Little Applebloom looked up at Mugen groggily, “ what is it mister Mugen?” She said, rubbing her hooves against her eyes.
Mugen stared out the window into the night, he breathed a sigh of relief, what the fuck is going on here? Mugen looked the filly in the eyes, “ Nothing squirt, just a night mare, c'mon back to sleep.” Mugen climbed back under the covers and made sure to place Applebloom far away from his groin area.
…..
He could hear a distinct huff as the farm mare trotted away. Mugen sighed in relief and wiped perspiration from his forehead.
“Ah can't thank ya enough Mugen. Ah was scared something fierce of asking Miss Fluttershy out to a date like ya said to. And sure as shoot she said yes!” Big Mac grinned, bucking the tree with his hind legs as Mugen picked up the stray apples.
Mugen smirked stupidly as he listened to the normally reserved farm stallion go on and on. That smirk turned devilish as he had an idea, and he cocked his eye brows at the sky thankful for the opportunity gifted to him.
….
Mugen didn't dare let go of the hand that he had clamped around the mouth of Rainbow Dash, she was making far too much noise that he didn't want being made. The small group struggled to contain their giggles as they sat in their bush looking at their targets with binoculars. Mugen still wondered how in the hell they used them with hooves instead of hands, but he gave up on figuring it out.
Mugen smirked as their targets came into sight. Big Mac had combed his mane and had gotten rid of the hay stalk he normally chewed on. Mugen grinned as he noticed Fluttershy next to him, her mane had been combed into such an elegant design he knew it was Rarity's work right away. The pegasus had a dash of make-up, but far from too much.
Mugen glanced a congratulatory look at Rarity, who giggled at him before whispering, “ A lady must have class.” Mugen rolled his eyes at the fit of giggling and turned back to the scene he was most interested in.
…...
“Mugen why are we still here? They're not doing anything but talking, and talking and more talking.” Rainbow Dash complained, but Mugen was patient, he knew what was going to happen. His instinct was only steeled in further determination when the couple he watched laughed again for the thousandth time, genuine smiles glued to their faces.
“Shut up woman, it's almost time.” Mugen said a little harshly to the mare. She scowled at him and began to yell at him until he shoved a hand in her mouth and pointed at the scene. “Look!”
Mugen grinned as what he was waiting for played out before him, Big Mac leaned in close, closer closer. Fluttershy leaned in closer too, her cheeks red like a beat, the two got closer and closer until...
Rarity collapsed with a faint, but without a couch to fall on she landed tangled in the bush, Twilight held a hoof to her mouth completely caught off guard by what was happening, Rainbow Dash's bottom jaw hit the ground and Mugen's grinned only widened.
Big Mac and Fluttershy touched lips gently, a mere brush against each other, they're eyes locked together as the peered into one each others souls. Then their lips met again, this time with fire, with passion that Mugen could swear to god could have set the restaurant on fire. Mugen gave himself a fist pump as Big Mac and Fluttershy parted their lips.
Mugen barely stopped a tear in his eye as the two stared lovingly into the others eyes...and a very particular thought crossed Mugen's mind, And all I had to do was get them both together and tell them the truth. The truth being that both of them had come to me to ask for advice about their crushes on another and how I continued to tell them both what to do despite knowing that they each liked one another...also Fluttershy can buck really, REALLY, hard when she gets pissed enough. Of course she went Fluttershy mode after and continued a stream of non-stop apologies at him for what she did.
Mugen laughed at the thought of how long he'd be in pain from Fluttershy's kick. A second thought crossed his mind as he glanced at Applejack with a tear in her eye, If I were a pony would Applejack dig me? WAIT WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!
“Okay Mugen, what did you learn about friendship from this?” Twlighit whispered in his ear. A scroll and quill hung in the air as she waited for Mugen to respond.
Mugen thought for a moment, “I learned....its best to just tell the truth if you know it. It causes more harm to keep it than to tell it. Also, you really shoudln't mess around with hiding the truth...Fluttershy's kicks FUCKING hurt.” Twilight giggled and Mugen wasn't entirely sure if she actually wrote that down....
…...
What am I doing? Do you hate me? Do you hate my story? Or is it like Pony-cocaine? I hope not cus if it is you need help. I tried on this one and started to set up a lot, A LOT of shit that WILL come back later, this was supposed to be a start to something big. Don't you worry action fans, I got something for you, just you wait and see. DUNDUNDUN!!!!!!
Loyalty
Applejack is laying on her back, a tan stallion looming over her. They're lips lock and they move against each other, groaning past their lips. The the stallion pulls free of the lip lock and smiles, “Damn Aj, you sure know how to lip lock.” Pony Mugen laughs.
Applejack shoots up in her bed, ripping the sheets off of her. She shivers at the thought of what just happened and emerges from her bed, still shaking terribly. She trots to the window of her room and stares at the moon, basking in its glow.
“What the hay is happening to me? That there was the third dream like that this week.” Applejack mutters under her breath. The moon doesn't say anything in response and Applejack scowls before climbing back into bed.
…..
Mugen can barely keep himself from crying as Applebloom bawls her eyes out.
“W-w-w-why d-d-d-d-do yah gotta go Mugen?!?! Wh-why cant ya'll stay a-awhile more?” The little filly can't stem the flood of tears falling from her eyes. Mugen smiles sadly and lifts the crying filly. He gently smooths her mane and begins scratching her behind the ears. “Shhh its okay squirt, it ain't like you're never gonna see me again. I'll come by and visit everday.”
Applebloom nuzzles against his chest, sniffling, “Y'all mean it?”
“Of course squirt.”
Big Mac stands right in front of Mugen, completely silent. Mugen looks the red stallion in the eye and stares....Big Mac stares right back. The human stares, the stallion stares....the human offers a hand and the red stallion shakes it with his hoof. “Eeyup.” Is all Big Mac says. “Eeyup.” Mugen replies, a devilish grin on his face.
“Did you get to ride Fluttershy like a work horse yet?” Mugen asks with a cocked eyebrow. The red stallion cheeks light up almost immediately, and Mugen chuckles as Big Mac stammers out a definitive no.
Mugen gets a very familiar hoof smack upside the head, “Now don't ya'll go teasing muh bruther like that Mugen. Ah don't take kindly to it.” Mugen turns to Applejack still rubbing his head. He smirks, and gives Granny Smith a quick hug, she was still napping as the human wrapped his arms around the old mare, “Oh watch out for the zap apple wolves, they'll get ya.” She spat at Mugen, covering his face in spittle before immediately falling back to sleep.
“Well Mugen, are ya'll set to go to Rainbow Dash's?” Applejack asked in her usual drawl. Mugen didn't say a word as he thought of the things human Applejack had done with her lips to him and simply nodded instead.
…..
Mugen frowned as he stroked his chin. three times....three times Mugen had attempted to step on the floor of RD's cloud home and all three times he fell straight through. The first time, she hadn't budged it all and he had to fly up in Pinkie's balloon and went in almost immediate free fall.
The second time, Rainbow Dash moved her home closer to the ground and the same exact thing happened.
The third time, Twilight cast a spell on Mugen and the pegasus moved her home to a mere ten feet above the ground....Mugen fell right through....again.
Mugen glanced at the mane six, each were grinning sheepishly as they attempted to think of a solution. He shrugged and casually spouted, “Fuck it, I'll just sleep on the ground.” With that the human held out his arms making a large 'T' and simply flopped onto the grass below.
“Oh nonononononono. As one of the Apple family ah can't just go and let ya'll-” Mugen cut her off with a wave of his hand. “Wanderer remember? I spent more nights under a night sky than a roof, I can tell you that for sure. Besides, grass is a comfy ass bed.”
Mugen closed his eyes and almost began to nap when he felt something looming over him. It began to breathe....heavily.... in his face. Mugen scowls, “Go away I'm tryi-” “GET UP RIGHT NOW! YOU ARE IN RAINBOW DASH'S BOOT CAMP!” Mugen cracked an eye, right in his face was RD, she had a strange hat plopped right on her head, black stripes painted under her eyes and a small silver thing hanging around her neck.
Mugen cracked a smirk, the smirk widened to a grin, the grin cracked from ear to ear, until finally the man was rolling on the ground laughing. RD's eyes narrowed and she turned around and bucked....the kick made full contact....with Mugen's groin.
Mugen's eyes shot wide open...and a soprano scream left his lips as he cupped his groin and rolled from side to side. RD smirked, “ That shut you up didn't it?” Mugen grunted in pain, “Of course it did you stupid cunt, you just destroyed any chance I had at having kids.” Mugen's eyes watered in pain as he continued rocking.
RD's eyes grew wide as she prances back and forth nervously. “Oh my gosh, oh my gosh OH MY GOSH! A-are you alright? I mean, I meant to rough you up a bit but I didn't mean that.” RD glanced at Mugen, concern painting her face.
Mugen sighed as the pegasus hovered over him, now only a few feet from his face, he eyes displaying pure, unfiltered worry. Mugen looked right into the eyes as they grew bigger and bigger, the look was complete as RD's ears flopped downwards and at the point Mugen just rolled his eyes, “I'm fine, just give me a bit.”
Mugen rolled around for a bit more and slowly started to stand to see RD on the ground in front of him, smiling sheepishly. Mugen looked up at her, still crouching and holding his crotch, “So what now chief?”
RD thought for a moment and just shrugged her shoulders. Mugen rolled his eyes, “Great....just great.”
The rest of the mane six could no longer contain their laughter and at last began rolling around crying on the ground from the whole scene. Mugen took it with a grimace and RD huffed before turning to face the completely opposite direction.
The sound of steel on steel rang out in the empty forest. A few more blows of steel and a blade cut into the flesh of the first outlaw, spraying blood all over the lush forest floor. One down, three more to go. The outlaws surrounded a man in a simple, baggy blue robe, with glasses and a cold calculating look to him. He had his back to a tree and seemed to be protecting a young girl in a pink kimono with oddly colored flowers decorating it.
The last of the outlaws charged, straight at the calm man in the glasses....with a whistle of wind and a single moment... the man steps forward, clicking his sword back into his sheath as all three of the bandits heads roll off their shoulders from the single stroke.
The girl blinked, “Wow Jin, that was quick.” Jin merely nodded, before looking at the bandits, “Mugen apparently disappeared after entering this forest. I know for a fact simple bandits couldn't have killed that man. Don't worry Fuu, we'll find the bastard.” Jin smiled comfortably at her and Fuu smiled back. “Besides, I may not want to kill him now, but we never did finish that duel of ours.” Fuu's smile changed from a smile to a grimace within a second.
…...
Mugen sighed contently as he napped, his chest rising and falling under the shade of RD's cloud home. Mugen chuckled to himself at the pegasus's stupidity...she hadn't had a clue as to how to teach him about loyalty so she went and flew off to ask some one some questions...or something....Mugen had tuned her out...shut up.
Mugen rolled onto his side, feigning his sleep when he heard the rustle. The faint sound of very familiar hoof steps, gently tip-toeing, wait can pony's tip toe without toes? Whatever, the tip toeing ponies got closer and closer...
“BOO!” Mugen rolled over and scooped up screaming fillies in his grasp. He then pinned all three of the CMC down with just his chest and began to tickle the trio on the sides of their ribs. “M-MUGEN STOP IT, AH CAN'T TAKE NO MORE! HAHAHAHA!!!” Applebloom managed to squeeze out in between bouts of laughter.
“Mugen I got something to teach you! I'm sorry girls, you're gonna have to go, I got work to do with the big guy.” Rainbow Dash interrupted the group playing on the ground, the CMC groaned and trotted off slowly, disappointment plastering their little faces.
Mugen scowled at the cyan pegasus as the fillies trotted out of ear shot, the pegasus smiled at him sheepishly, “Well, its true, I do gotta work with you.” Mugen grunted and said nothing as the pegasus began to describe what she wanted him to do.
….
“So...how is this gonna teach me loyalty?” Mugen asks suspiciously, stroking his chin while staring at the cyan pegasus. A squee escapes RD's lips as she jumps into the air flipping around, “That's easy! You already know how to be loyal, just stick up for your friends and your set. This...well...Mugen I always did want to race you.”
Mugen glanced into the sheepish grin of R, “But you have wings kid, I don't.” Rainbow Dash yelled in triumph, “AHA! I'M ONE YEAR OLDER THAN YOU MUGEN, SO I GET TO CALL YOU KID! HA! * she clears her throat * to make it fair, I'm not going to fly at all! One hundred percent, on foot race!”
Mugen smirked as he looked at the setup, from one end of Pony Ville to the other, there were two ropes cutting off a very specific route through town. From where he was standing Mugen could see where the race would end, a few dozen ponies stood nearby ready to judge, including the main six.
Mugen simply nodded and RD practically leaped for joy. Mugen took a runners stance at the starting line, Rainbow Dash took a spot next to the human. She grinned and waved her hind quarters in the air as she got ready.
A pony whose name didn't know raised the flag with a single hoof and with a wave the race started.
RD and Mugen bolted at the same time, every pony gasped as Mugen actually pulled out ahead of the fastest flier in Equestria, getting a stunned looked from the cyan pegasus. RD squinted, and quickly started gaining speed.
Mugen dashed around the corner and whipped his sword out, with careful aim he threw his sword ten feet in front of him to stick directly into the ground. The crowd of ponies that had gathered to watch the race gaped in awe as Mugen jumped onto the hilt of his sword, and with a powerful kick, he leaped off of the handle and scrabbled along the side of a building until he reached the top.
RD was dumbfounded as Mugen leaped from roof top to roof top right alongside the road RD was racing along. Mugen grinned cockily as he hopped across another roof top. This is actually pretty damn fun.
…..
Fuu huffed and whined, “Come on Jin! We've been walking for hours in this forest, there's no sign of Mugen anywhere!” The girl was panting and struggling to keep up with the brisk pace of Jin. She wasn't looking ahead of her, and collided with the ronin.
“Jin whats....wrong....” Fuu started to ask but quickly shut up when she saw what Jin was staring at, there was a single patch of fog in the rough shape of door, right in the middle of two trees.
….
Look at Mugen go! That there is one mighty fine stal-. Stallion? Naw Aj what're yah talki' 'bout girl, hes a hewman. Land sakes Applejack why do you keep thinking stuff like this any how? Applejack frowned at herself as she watched Mugen and Rainbow Dash round the corner leading to the straight shot for the finish line.
Mugen had dropped from the roof tops awhile back in order to deal with the twists and turns of the race...and for whatever reason Derpy had flown next to Mugen carrying his sword in her mouth for most of the race.
Applejack squinted as Mugen gained closer, he had quite the lead on the cyan pegasus. Their eyes locked for a moment....Mugen grinned cockily and he doubled his speed as RD doubled hers....she caught up to Mugen...they were merely ten feet from the finish....five...Mugen barreled past the finish line a mere moment before his rival.
Mugen, collapsed as he crossed the line sliding directly to Applejack's feet. He flopped onto his back as the crowd of ponies cheered and cheered. RD trotted to over the panting human, she was panting herself. “Damn... * pant * Mugen, you sure can run fast.” The cyan pegasus murmured before collapsing onto her back as well.
Mugen blinked as he noticed something....no it couldn't be. He reached and grabbed his sword from Derpy and took a stance staring straight at the patch of fog exactly the same as the one that brought him here.
The ponies all quieted down and followed Mugen's gaze, they all gasped and trotted nervously behind Mugen as two shadows began to move around inside the fog.
Mugen let the sword go limp in his hands, “Jin? Fuu? What the fuck are you two ass hats doing here?”
….
“MUGEN!” Fuu practically jumped in the air, “Your...all...right.” The girl noticed the ponies and fidgeted around nervously, before standing behind Jin.
Applejack trotted forward, drinking in the sight of the two new humans, “Come again? Mugen do you these fellers?”
Mugen nodded, “I traveled with them for a long ass time, looking for the samurai who smells of sunflowers. Got into some good fights. Good times, good times.”
Jin glanced around at the ponies surrounding them, some of them were smiling now that Mugen had called them friends.
“Oh Yeah, Jin, that reminds me.” Mugen said pointing his sword straight at Jin, “ You and I still have a fight to finish.”
Jin smirked in return and stuck his sword fully into the sheath, “I heard that you had...disappeared and wanted to investigate. After all no one is allowed to kill you while I'm alive...and I just found Fuu wandering around.” Fuu smiled sheepishly at the mention of her name.
A pink blur raced right up to Jin's face and an over excited Pinkie Pie placed her massive eyes right into Jin's face. “OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHTHISISSOEXCITINGIGETOHAVETWOWELCOMEPARTIESATONCEOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!!!!!!” Pinkie's chest heaved as she struggled for air and Jin had a look of sheer surprise on his face before he collected himself.
Jin opened his mouth as if to say something, but Mugen cut him off before he could speak, “Pinkie Pie here WILL throw you a welcome party whether you like it or not, so its best to just accept it and just go with the flow. Can you understand her anyway?”
Jin shook his head. Mugen smirked and looked at Twilight, “Hey Twi-babe can you do your magic thingamajojo?”
Twilight cocked an eyebrow at the nick name and her horn glowed with magic, and directed it at the two new comers who grew wide eyed at the site.
“There, that should get you guys to start understand Equestrian! Hello, Jin and Fuu, I'm Twilight Sparkle. Nice to meet you.” Twilight spoke as she walked up to the humans and took each of their hands in her hooves.
Jin's eyes grew a little but he said nothing and gave Twilight a slight bow which made the unicorn blush profusely.
“Alright you two shit heads, lets go get you settled in, I've got a hell of a tale for you two.”
….
Twilight trotted down the stairs of her library home, “Ok, I sent a letter to Princess Celestia to let her know that Jin and Fuu have wound up here as well. She said she'll be here in a couple hours at most. And she's bringing my BBBFF and Cadence too! Why did you tell me to send for her anyway Mugen?”
Mugen cracked an eye open, the mane six, Jin and Fuu sat in a semi circle in Twilights living room, sipping on tea that Spike had made. Fuu had jumped up and started screaming until Jin calmed her down, and Mugen smirked at how Rarity couldn't keep her eyes off of Jin for more than a moment. And for some reason, Applejack was staring daggers at Fuu....huh? How unlike her.
Mugen looked over to Twilight, “Because Jin and I have a fight to finish, and I figured the Princess's deserve to see a truly awesome fight. Besides, I'm sure she knows a spell that will block the blade, making it impossible for Jin and I to cut each other into ribbons.”
Applejack scowled, “Mugen, what in the hay are ya'll so worked up about fighting your friend, I mean you said ya'll been through a lot together”
Mugen reached a hand over to Applejack and patted her on her head, smothering the hat down making the farm pony frown even more. “It's simple AJ, in the few times that I've fought him....Jin is a much, MUCH more difficult fight than even the Ursa Major.”
The mane six all gasped shooting up, Jin and Fuu exchanged confused glances, “Jin is one of the best swordsman in Japan, even though hes a ronin, and I aim to prove which of the two of us are better.”
Fuu spoke up, “Not to sound stupid, but what's an Ursa Major?”
Mugen's grin stretched from ear to ear when Twilight explained it and told his friends about how he killed it.
Jin spoke after a moment of thinking, “You have given us quite the tale Mugen, but, how will these princess receive me? I mean, I have killed many, but for far different reasons than you. Will they be wiling to listen to me?”
“Indeed we will human.”
….
Shining Armor, Cadence, Luna and Celestia took their places hin the circle. Celestia kept her signature blank look focused on her target, Jin. “Will you allow me inside your head human? I can force it and I will if I have too. I need to know that my little ponies are safe with you in my kingdom.”
Jin grimaced and bowed his head. Celestia gave a slight smirk before her horn began to glow, and soon Jin's memories began to pour into her mind.
After a minute, her eyes shot open and she pointed a hoof menacingly at Jin. “I banish you to the moon, ronin Jin, for the deaths of those slaughtered by your hands.”
The group gathered around gasped in utter shock at Celestia's decision, Fuu actually began to cry and the ponies gave each other worried looks....until Mugen slammed his foot down on the center of the table completely smashing it.
“LISTEN YOU ROYAL BITCH! YOU LET ME GO AND I KILLED A HELL OF A LOT MORE PEOPLE THAN JIN AND YOU LET ME WALK ALMOST SCOT FREE...NOW I KNOW FOR A FUCKING FACT THAT YOU'RE GONNA SWITCH HIS ROLE WITH ME. BANISH ME TO YOUR FUCKING MOON YOU LIMP DICK BITCH!!!”
The mouth of every pony and every one in the room hit the floor. Everyone was speechless, Mugen continued to glower at the Princess of the sun, his hand on the handle of his sword. And then....
…
…
…
Celestia began to laugh, she laughed so hard tears streamed down her eyes and she gasped for breath. Every pony looked at her with utter confusion. “Mugen * Stifles her laughter * I was never going t banish Jin, this was just a test to see what you've learned about friendship so far. You already have complete and utter loyalty, I actually expected for you to roll with it, I would scold and say what I'm about to and then we'd carry on.”
The Princess paused as Mugen continued to glower at her, “ You've shown not only your aptitude for loyalty but honesty as well. No pony, or person, would ever talk to a goddess like that and you, well, you did.”
Mugen's stare became cold with rage as every one else in the room glanced at the two nervously.
Celestia's smile faded completely, “In retrospect it wasn't very funny at all. I apologize for the joke Mugen, it was in ill light. Forgive me?”
Mugen snorted, “Fine. But you owe me.”
Celestia nodded her head.
“Hey Celestia.”
“Yes Mugen?”
“I'm calling in my favor.”
“What do you desire Mugen? If it is within my power I shall grant it.”
Mugen told her.... she didn't like what he told her.
….
I am SOOOOOOO sorry over how long this took to get out. I got smacked in the face with writers block, I knew the basis of what was going to happen in this chapter but I just...couldn't...write it out. I was like UUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. So I started reading around to get inspired and I finally pieced together what I needed to. Well here you go, hope you enjoyed it!
Mugen scowled, “This goes against absolutely everything I've ever learned. Why am I doing this?” Mugen growled, his scowl growing even deeper. Rarity glanced at him, “Because I'm supposed to teach you how to be generous...so we'll start with something simple. Just give a random pony...ten bits. That's all you have to do.”
Mugen glared at Rarity and glanced around the busy market place. He saw a rather average looking stallion walking by and shoved ten bits in his face. The stallion looked surprise and went to grab the bits but...at the last second Mugen retraced the pouch of money and darted.
Before Mugen could even take three steps a light blue aura surrounded his feet and dragged him back to the stallion. Mugen grunted, rolled his eyes and reluctantly gave the stallion his ten bits. The nameless stallion smiled and trotted off with a polite thank you.
The light blue aura then dragged Mugen by his feet over to Rarity who glared at him, tapping her hoof on the floor with extreme impatience. She huffed, “Mugen...what was that?”
Mugen glared right back, “I gave the guy ten bits, I've been taught generosity looks like I can go to Fluttershy and learn kindness.” Rarity's eyes flew open in shock, “Wait, what?!?! No! No you have not learned a thing about generosity! Now we will continue to do this until you can give some pony ten bits without me interfering.”
Mugen glared daggers at the white unicorn and shoved his hands into his pockets, pulling out ten more bits. The human stood up and began to look around for a pony to give bits too.
…..
Two Hours later...
Mugen face palmed, and talked through his hand “My sweet Celestia of Equestria Rarity, I brought one hundred bits with me today, and I've given them ALL away!!! WOMAN!!! MARE!!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!”
Rarity scoffed, “Well...fine. We'll try again tomorrow.”
Mugen rolled his eyes and began to follow Rarity back to her home.
…..
Celestia's eyes ran over the spell again. She smiled to herself. This enchantment would work perfectly for Applejack's and Mugen's little....problem.
The Princess's horn began to glow with magic, and soon two scrolls with a quill levitated over to her. A devious smile splayed across her lips as she wrote the message out. Normally, she would never allow herself to suck trickery...but this was just too good to pass up.
….
Sweetie Belle snored softly atop Mugen's chest. He was wide awake, stroking her mane as she smiled and kicked her legs in her sleep. Mugen smiled at the filly's cuteness...and suppressed another shudder as the dream that woke him up in the first place.
He couldn't figure out which was worse, the fact that he was having the dreams in the first and his eyes tended to follow Applejack when ever she was around, or that he was ENJOYING the dreams and desperately wished that Applejack would magically become the woman in his dream.
Mugen rolled the thought around his head for what felt like hours until the sleeping filly started to stretch and yawn. The filly's eyes widened and she jumped up, complete with salute, “Good morning Mugen! I'm gonna make you breakfast. CUTIE MARK CRUSADER BREAKFAST...MAKER....THING....AWAY!” And in a mutlicolored blur of adorableness the filly darted out of the room.
Mugen smirked and simply shook his head at the amount of energy that kid. The man stood up and walked out of his to find Rarity waiting for him. His smile immediately turned into a frown.
“Good Morning to you too Mugen. Don't worry, I won't let Sweetie Bell poison you with her food. By the way, Princess Celestia sent you this letter. It's odd though its got some sort of spell sealing it shut.” Rarity said with a cool smile.
A scroll with a blue aura surrounding it floated to the human, he snatched it and tried to open it. His frown quickly became a scowl as he frantically tried to open it. “What the fuck?!? Why did she seal it shut?” Mugen nearly shouted....and Rarity smacked him upside the head.
“Watch your language.” The fashion diva said with disinterest as the human glared at her. They both jumped however, as a puff of yellow flame burst out of nowhere, discharging another scroll.
Mugen picked it up and unrolled it....and after a long few minutes Rarity scowled, “Well what does it say?” Mugen quickly shot her a reply, “None of your business. Listen, I gotta go alright.”
Jin took a sip of his tea before he finished, “And that's how I became a banished ronin and lost the title of samurai.”
Twilight's eyes grew wide in shock, “Your OWN MASTER tried to kill you in your sleep. Sweet Celestia of Equestria, Jin that's terrible.”
The lavender mare lunged at Jin and tackle hugged him, nearly spilling the tea everywhere. Jin's eyes grew wide with shock at the sudden embrace. But then a small smile touched his lips and he returned the hug.
After about a minute Twilight's eyes shot open and she scrambled out of the embrace. She smiled sheepishly at the ronin and began to let out a stream of apologies, “Oh my gosh I'm so so sorry I-I-I-I jus-just felt so sorry for you I kinda go-” Jin plopped his hand directly on Twilight's head and patted her a few times before stroking her mane.
Jin didn't say a word but continued to smile as Twilight smiled back, “Can you tell me more about Japan?”
Jin nodded his immediately, “Lets see...have I told you a lot about the code of Bushido?”
….
Fuu squeed in delight as she voraciously began to devour the plate of sweets that Pinkie Pie had deposited in front of her. She talked despite her mouth being full and it came out garble, “Mhhphphhmhhm mhhmhm”
Pinkie Pie giggled, “Oh you silly-silly-lilly, there's no need to thank me! OOOOOOH I KNOW! You said you used to work at a tea shop rightrightright? WELL HOW ABOUT YOU COME WORK HERE AT SUGAR CUBE CORNER?!!?!?!”
Both cakes looked over immediately, “Pinkie! Leave her be I'm sure she would-”
“OH MY GOSH PINKIE THATS AN INCREDIBLE IDEA!!!” Fuu nearly shouted as she gulped down the last bit of her food.
Pinkie Pie squeed at Fuu who squeed right back as they danced around each other in excitement. But Pinkie's eyes flew open and she gasped. “Pinkie, what's wrong?” Fuu asked in fear.
Pinkie shoved her hoof right into Fuu's mouth, “I TOTALLY FORGOT TO THROW YOU AND JIN A PARTY. COME ON LETS GO!” Fuu grinned like an idiot and followed Pinkie as she darted out of Sugar Cube Corner.
…..
Dearest Mugen,
No doubt you think this is the letter that will call you to Canterlot. It isn't. Go to the market place. Don't ask questions just go.
Celestia
Mugen scowled as he struggled to read the letter for the fifth time.
“What the fuck is this royal bitch doing?” Mugen though aloud as he glanced around the marketplace unsure of what he was supposed to be doing....that is until a scroll popped out and startled him.
Dear Mugen,
I don't like being called a royal bitch, it's rather rude, not walk directly to your right ten steps.
Clestia, the not a bitch princess's
Mugen did a double take at the letter, daring no to say a thing aloud about her before he followed her directions.
At ten steps he collided with somepony.
“Sorry, I was...reading.” Mugen said....to Applejack.
…
The two looked awkwardly at one another until a pop startled them both, as two letters plopped down in front of them. One was labeled for Mugen, the other for Aj.
Mugen unfurled his as Applejack did hers,
Mugen... Shut the fuck up and let Applejack do the talking.
Mugen paled as he looked to Applejack.
Applejack paled as she looked to the human, “Uhmmmm...do ya'll want to go into the 'Toasty Pony' with me. I-its a real good bar. Ya'll said you like to have some alcohol right?” Applejack sputtered out nervously.
Mugen nodded his head, What the fuck is this all about?
….
Mugen downed the fifteenth shot of Applejack cider without even blinking. He wasn't even tipsy yet, while Applejack was drunk off her rocker.
Mugen paled with fear, the letter that came to him in the bar told him to get drunk as all hell. “You got anything heavier?”
Berry Punch thought for a moment, she held up a hoof and disappeared behind the counter before bringing up an unlabeled bottle and poured a shot for him.
“WOOOOHOOO MUGEN!! COME ON DRINK IT COW BOY WOOOO!” Applejack slurred in a drunken shout.
Mugen smiled at her and downed the crisp shot. SAKE?
2 hours later....
Applejack had her hoof slung around Mugen's shoulder, Mugen had his arm slung over her back, together they were singing at the top of their lungs, “I WANNA BE AN AIRBORNE EARTH PONY! I WANNA BE AN EQUESTRIAN HERO!”
The two finished their song with a bout of laughter as they leaned into one another. Mugen wiped a tear from his eye as he down into Applejack's eyes, and she stared up into his eyes.
“Mugen...ya'll got some perrty eyes. YEEEEHAWWWW!!” Applejack slurred out to him. Mugen laughed as he hugged the farm mare closer.
POP! A letter fell in between the both of them... addressed to both Applejack AND Mugen.
Mugen blinked a few times...and felt completely sober. He looked to his left and saw the same thing happen to Applejack. The two looked at each other confused.
Mugen gingerly unfurled the scroll, and his eyes darted over the scroll....
Dear human idiot Mugen and Drunken Applejack,
Look at eachother, now back to this letter, then back to the one you've been dreaming about. Yeah...BOTH of you. BOTH of you have been having dreams about the other, BOTH of you have a humongous crush on the other. Why in FUCKS name do you not simply accept this fact? Yes your two different species, but getting drunk off your rockers showed that you two get along wondrously.
Celestia
P.s Look behind you
Applejack and Mugen both blinked before turning around, only for both faces to collide with an upraised hoof.
As Mugen clawed at his eye that had nearly been poked out, a hearty guffawing came from...none other than Celestia herself.
Applejack and Mugen looked at one another confused, “Princess? What are ya'll doing here?”
Celestia wiped a tear from her eyes, “Oh my gosh both of you seemed TERRIFIED of me! You should have seen your faces....* she breaks out in another fit of laughter * OH MY GOSH YOU SCARED!!!!”
Mugen began to glare, “Oh lighten up Mugen, it was some harmless joking. Now to the matter at hoof.” Celestia's horn glowed and two intricate medallions levitated up, and wrapped themselves around Mugen's and Applejack's neck. Both Medallions were a solid, yet dull gold, complete with the symbol of the Sun Goddess and the Moon Goddess.
The farm mare and human eyed the medallions suspiciously, Celestia rolled her eyes before continuing, “ Just hold the medallion up and speak the other's name into the medallion when you want to change. Speak your own name to change back. Toodaloo! HAHA!” With a flash the Sun Goddess vanished. Mugen blinked and looked to Applejack, who responded in kind. The two began to chuckle...which quickly turned into outright laughter.
The laughter died out and the two held aloft their medallions, they looked at one another and then back to their medallions, “Applejack.” “Mugen” A blinding white glare exploded out lasting a second as Mugen fell to his stomach. Wait...Mugen tried to stand up using his hands...but when he looked he had hooves.
In a panic Mugen looked around and noticed a human Applejack, a very sexy and very naked Applejack. Mugen grinned as he looked to his hooves, “Celestia, I love you.”
….
“Later tonight then?” Mugen asks Applejack, both were in their original forms. The farm pony smiled at him, “You bet yer sweet ass ah do, ahm going to Rarity to have her make me some human clothes. What was it you said ah should get? A bra? What in tarnations is that?”
Mugen chuckled, “Grab Fuu, show here and she'll show you the ropes to being a human woman. I'll ask Rarity to make me some stallion clothes later.” Applejack smiled warmly at Mugen, “Catch you later...cow pony.” Applejack trotted off, and Mugen watched her go as he went to go looking for Jin.
….
Twilight gasped, “Oh my gosh Mugen, Celestia gave you that?” The lavender unicorns eyes grew wide as Mugen shifted back into a human.
Mugen grinned stupidly, “Yeah she gave it to me so...so I can you know....be with Applejack.” The human looked towards the roof with a blush.
Twilight grinned, “Sooooo, you've got a date with Applejack tonight huh? Well...better plan on going to Pinkie Pie's welcome party for Jin and Fuu.”
Mugen cocked her an eye brow and Jin watched in silence.
Twilight continued, “If you skip a Pinkie Pie party she gets extremely upset.”
Mugen nodded, unsure of what to say.
Twilight, “Well...since Applejack is probably going to be taking quite a bit of Fuu's time so why don't I show you the ropes to being a pony.
Mugen smirked and held up his medallion, “Applejack.”
….
Human Applejack grabbed hold of both her breasts and lifted them, inspecting them she turned to Fuu, “And what in the hay are these fer?”
Fuu barely suppressed a giggle, “Those are your....your boobs. They really don't do much unless your pregnant, otherwise they just drive men nuts.”
Applejack nodded, unsure of why human males found them attractive. Applejack stood up, she was garbed in one of Fuu's other kimonos, much like her own, except it was apple red and was rather plain.
Applejack put her left foot in front of the right and followed Fuu's instructions on walking to the letter. She continued to pace herself, putting one foot directly in front of the other, she simply walked back and forth in Fuu's room at Sugar Cube Corner.
Pinkie continued to watch Applejack, “Woweee Applejack! You're like...all human and stuff!” The party pony simply bobbed her head as she watched her friend practice walking.
“Hey uh Pinkie, do yah mind doing me a favor?” Applejack asked, careful not to look away from her feet.
Pinkie simply bobbed her head excitedly. Applejack smiled, “Can ya'll ask Mugen if he's okay with goin to yer party rather than the bar like we were gonna do?”
Pinkie Pie saluted and darted out the door in a pink blur. Fuu laughed, “Wow, Pinkie's just a little ball of pure sugar induced energy isn't she?”
Applejack chuckled and just nodded her head, not wanting to trip over herself like she had multiple times already.
“All right you're getting the hang of it, come here, we're gonna get you nice and ready for your date with Mugen tonight.”
….
Pinkie Pie didn't even knock at Twilight's door, instead she just hopped in an open window.
“HEY MUGEN!” The party pony practically shouted. She gasped at what was going on at the bottom floor.
Twilight groaned and face hoofed, “ Pinkie, what did I tell you about knocking at my door? I'm kinda busy teaching Mugen how to be a pony.”
Pony Mugen took another careful step forward, his legs quite wobbly as he struggled forward. He grunted at the mention of his name and continued to learn how to walk.
“Applejack told me to ask you if you'd rather have your first date at Jin and Fuu's welcome party!” The party pony continued to hop up and down, back and forth as she spoke.
Mugen, in truth would have much rather not go the party as a first date, but he realized how much it meant to Pinkie so he grunted with a nod as he struggled to walk on four legs rather than two.
Pinkie yelled at the top of her lungs and leaped out the window the exact same way she came in.
….
Mugen downed another cup of fruit punch, his scowl deepening. Fuu was bringing Applejack and they were supposed to be here about an hour ago. He practically ran to Sugar Cube Corner when he heard Jin and Fuu's welcome party would be there.
Mugen growled and shut his eyes, his scowl deepened. Is she ditching me already? Damn, she gets an amulet and then just stands me up. I can't believe Aj would do that! Wait! She would have never done that so why is she late for the first date?
Mugen argued with himself for a while until he noticed it...the silence. It was never quiet at a Pinkie Pie Party, so why now? Mugen opened his eyes and his jaw hit the floor, and he dropped to his knees.
There she was... Applejack was clad in a crimson kimono, her hair was done up in the most spectacular bun, her face had just enough make up to touch it up, but not so much that she looked fake. Her lips were a bright red and she waved a traditional fan in front of her face. She looked like a fucking goddess.
She was waiting politely for him to finally notice her...and notice he did. He didn't say a word as he scurried across the floor to her, he rested his forehead against her lap and human Aj stroked his hair once, “Now what in tarnations are yeh doing Mugen, get up off the ground and dust yerself off, you and ah got a date.”
Mugen glanced up into human Aj's eyes, she was laughing gently as she helped him to his feet, he was still speechless. Aj blushed and looked away, “Why are yah staring at me like that Mugen?”
“You're a fucking goddess.” Mugen blurted out without even thinking.
Applejack smirked, “Well Mugen, you gonna take me around this party or what? Ya'll shouldn't keep a mare waiting you know.” Human Aj laughed, and Mugen felt his heart beat out of his chest.
….
“Oh my gosh Rarity, did ya'll see the way Mugen was like when he was with me last night?” Applejack drawled as she pulled a cart.
Rarity giggled, “Oh yes, you whipped him into a gentlecolt without even trying. You have the poor man wrapped around your little hoof. Oh, more over here Spike.” Rarity pointed a hoof at a spot in the ground and Spike jumped at the spot.
“Aw shucks Rarity, ah've had mah share of stallions after me before but...ah don't know...ah...ah uhh....” Applejack blushed and looked around everywhere but at Rarity.
Rarity smirked knowingly, “Well Applejack, how much attraction do you have to the man? I mean you visited Celestia for her help with it.”
Applejack stopped, eyes shooting wide open , face turning apple red, “Ah-ah don't rightly know Rarity, ah'm gonna take it nice and slow with him though. This ain't the kind of thing to go rushing.”
Rarity laughed, “So you consider to take him as a husband then?”
Applejack grew pale, then shook her head with a look of pure anger, “Rarity, stop putting words in mah mouth. Ah didn't say that.”
Rarity rolled her eyes and went to speak but instead she shrieked. A Diamond dog jumped out from a nearby hole and dragged her under. Applejack looked around but was too slow to see another slam a shovel into the back of her head, before picking the out cold mare up and leaping into a hole.
Spike scrambled after them but was cut off as dirt filled the hole, he looked around panicking, “NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!”
….
Mugen growled, “YOU ALL ARE TOO FUCKING SLOW!” He shouted over his shoulder. He was righteously pissed. Spike had hauled ass over to find everyone and all he had said was, “Diamond Dogs...kidnapped...Applejack...AND RARITY!!!”
Twilight pulled up next to the human, terrified of the look of pure rage that plastered his face. “Calm down Mugen, we'll find her. The Diamond dogs have done this before. Rarity can handle it.”
Mugens scowl deepened but he said nothing as he continued his full one sprint. It felt like eternity before Spike finally said, “THERE!”
Mugen looked down the hole, “I thought you said they filled it up.” Mugen glared at Spike accusungly.
Mugen glared and dove into the hole, not caring about the dirt or anything for that matter. When he finally landed with a dull thud, he clenched his fists and his nostrils flared in rage. There was Applejack in a cage, locked up like an animal.
Twenty or so Diamond Dogs surrounded them as the rest of the mane six fell down and landed with groans of discomfort.
Mugen pointed at Applejack's cage, “Let.Her.Go.” He hissed out. The lead diamond dog rolled his eyes, “Why should w-” He was interrupted as Mugen threw a rock hitting the dog right in the nose. “SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LET THEM GO!” Mugen's shout reverberated throughout the whole complex.
The diamond dog snarled, “Get him!” Mugen drew his blade out as the dogs pounced...he readied his blade to draw blood... “Don't kill anypony Mugen, ya'll can beat em up...but don't kill em.” Mugen heard Applejack over the sounds of the snarling dogs.
Mugen grunted as he slammed his blade into the ground, using the top of the hilt as a spring board Mugen twirled around on top kicking two dogs in the face before flipping over them, slamming his heels into the head of another.
As Mugen landed more dogs charged, he smirked as he jumped straight up, almost ten feet, before flipping around and slamming his heel into another of the dogs.
The dogs backed off and circled Mugen, waiting for a chance to strike. But then a thought occurred to him. “Applejack...you said no killing right?” He heard her confirm with a soft yes.
Mugen stood upright and held his hand to his forehead...and began to laugh. The caverns echoed with the ringing of his laughter. “What you find so funny?” The lead Diamond Dog growled at the human, as every pony and dog look at one another in confusion.
Mugen didn't respond, but instead in an inhuman blur of speed he sprinted to Applejack's cage, tugging his sword out along the way and with a quick slash he unhinged it. He grabbed the mare and set her on his back before turning to where Rarity was chained.
He smirked as the rest of the diamond dog pack gathered to stand between him and Rarity, Mugen darted forward and jumped, before landing on the faces of two dogs. Mugen continued to laugh as he used diamond dog heads as foot holds as he dashed over the crowd and with a second wuick slah freed Rarity.
He pulled up the fashionista and sheathed his sword as he switched Applejack and Rarity, so he was carrying Applejack in his arms. Mugen darted through the crowd of Diamond dogs this time, reaching his friends as the dogs grabbed at his after image.
Mugen smirked as he set the two friends down and pointed at one of the tunnels behind them, “Go. You said no killing, I'm not gonna kill anything. But...I AM going to rough em up a bit. Don't worry, I'll pound direction out from these ass holes.”
Twilight and the others started to protest but Mugen cut them off, “Just fucking go, you ain't gonna change my mind. No pony, no body, and no dog takes my girl and thinks he can get away with it with his balls intact.”
Mugen drew his blade and his smirk turned into a devilish grin as the mane six hurried down a random tunnel.
…
Mugen began to chuckle evily as he licked his blade, “Come on then little shit for brains doggies....I got a lesson for you.” The dogs whimpered in fright but the leader pointed, “ATTACK!”
The dogs punced and Mugens blade flashed, severing an arm of one of the attacking diamond dogs. A fountain of blood erupted from the stump as the dog roared in agony. The eyes of the others grew wide as they drank in the carnage that he had wrought with a single swing, but didn't notice as Mugen swung his blade frantically, severing more limbs from the dogs painting the walls of the cavern red with the blood of diamond dogs....and true to his word...he didn't kill a single word.
The lead three Diamond Dog's shivered with fear, not even thinking of running away as Mugen approached with his sword dripping with blood. “P-p-please let ussss go...we will never kidnap ponies again!” The lead diamond dog begged, tears streaming through its fur.
Mugen smiled, raising his sword slowly above his head, “You shoulda thought about that before you took my girl. I'm being generous as is, letting you keep your head...but your an arm...you can deal with only having one.” Mugen laughed with savage glee as he brought the blade down.
….
Mugen tackled hugged Applejack when he finally made it to the surface. He had made sure to wipe every drop of blood off of himself and his blade so as to not cause fear amongst his little pony friends.
“Applejack are you okay?” Mugen asked worriedly. Applejack smiled up at him, “ Aw there ain't nothing to fuss over sugar cube ah'm fine. But...you didn't go overboard down there did ya?”
Mugen shook his head no and almost too quickly responded “Let's just say they're probably never going to come to Pony Ville any time in the next century.” A devious smile played upon his lips as Mugen hugged Applejack closer to him.
….
A quick note sorry this took so long, I've been rather busy what with the new puppy and all. Well I hope you enjoyed.... but...what will happen next!??!?! DUNDUNDUN!!!!!
A month and a half has passed...
Mugen is LOVING life. He gets to play with the CMC on a daily basis, he had NO trouble with giving shit away and....he hits the town with Applejak every night. What they do varies and he doesn't really care what they do as long as she's there and she's happy. They take “turns” when they go on dates, one date will be a “human” date, the following will be a “pony” date.
Mugen strokes Scootaloo's mane as the small pegasus snores next to his head. Applebloom nuzzled deeper into Mugen's chest and Sweetie Bell muttered in her sleep. The trip had a sleep over at Rarity's tonight and Mugen played with for a majority of the afternoon...up until Applejack time.
Mugen smirked, the sun was shining outside and he heard Rarity coming to the door, the moment she opened he held up a hand and mouthed to her, “I wanna wake them up. Watch this.” Rarity smiled at him as he slowly sat up careful to gently push Applebloom lower onto his body, and to keep the other two from waking up.
His smirk was a grin, he leaned down to the sleeping fillies....and with a roar he scooped all three up and starting tickling them.
The CMC shrieked awake as Mugen's fingers glided up and down and all over them. The three fillies couldn't keep tears out of their eyes from how hard they laughed. Mugen laughed right along with them and the three gave him a tackle hug, “GOOD MORNING MUGEN!”
….
“My oh my Mugen, it has been an absolute pleasure having you here with us Mugen, do be a dear and visit.” Rarity said as she helped Mugen pack his things.
Mugen smiled as Sweetie Bell trotted up to him, “You don't have to go do you Mugen?” The filly had a tear forming in her eye.
Mugen gave her a sad smile, “It's okay squirt, it's not like I'm leaving town and you'll never see me again.” He ruffled Sweetie Bell's mane and she gave him a small smile.
“ * GASP * WE CAN BE CUTIE MARK CRUSADER MOVER....HELPER....PONY....THINGS!!!! LETS GO!!!!” Scootaloo's roared echoed through out the home as the CMC each took.... absolutely nothing as Mugen held his only bag.
The sadness that the girls had plastered on their faces was beyond adorable. Mugen couldn't help but feel sorry for them He reached down and plopped his small bag of clothes right on Applebloom's head.
The young filly jumped up, “YES!” she shouted as she bounced around with utter glee. Mugen chuckled as the group of five left the boutique to take Mugen to Fluttershy's cottage.
….
Mugen couldn't resist, especially after getting a close up of what was going on. He had told the others to wait where they were much to Rarity's immense displeasure.
He stealthily and silently stalked from one tree to another as he closed the distance to the scene in front of Fluttershy's cottage. He suppressed a giggle and took a deep breath as he turned his face into the most serious he could.
He stepped out from behind his cover and slowly crept up to Big Mac and Flutteshy, “WOOOOOOO BIG MAC GET IT!!!! I KNEW YOU WERE GETTING SOME FROM FLUTTERBABE!!!! WOOWOOO AIN'T NO BRAKES ON THE BIG MAC TRAIN!!!!” Mugen shouted right in Big Mac's ears causing the farm stallion and Fluttershy to jump a near four feet in the air, breaking the couples lip lock.
Mugen roared with laughter as he slapped his knee, the blush that the couple both shared quickly became their dominant feature.
Mugen's laughter stopped when a familiar hoof smacked him upside the head. “What do you think your doing Mugen. My word, you've spent two months with me and you act as if your still a brute.” Rarity scolded.
Mugen rolled his eyes and rubbed the back of his head and turned to the couple who were hugging good byes. Big Mac muttered something to Fluttershy and she giggled, he smiled at her and with a quick peck on her cheek he trotted past.
Rarity huffed last time before giving Mugen a quick hug, “It was nice having you despite your vulgarity Mugen, you kept Sweetie Bell occupied so... see you later. Oh, and DON'T YOU DARE SCARE FLUTTERSHY OR YOU'LL MEET RARIBITCH.” She had her eyes pressed directly against his, as her voice grew colder and colder.
Mugen smiled nervously, until Rarity chuckled and trotted off leaving Mugen with Fluttershy....alone. Mugen scuffed at the ground and looked at Fluttershy, “Soooo....” The pegasus scuffed the ground nervously.
Mugen sighed, “I'm sorry I get carried away with my joking. Can we go inside and get started on...kindness.” Fluttershy smiled up at him before turning and leading him to her cottage.
….
Mugen swatted at his foe, the thing dodged back and gave him a kick to the head. “COME BACK HERE YOU LITTLE SHIT!” Mugen yelled at the top of his lungs. Fluttershy looked upon the scene, panic in her eyes, “Oh no...angel bunny please stop... Mugen please stop....BOTH OF YOU STOP!”
Mugen stopped as he held angel by the ears, the bunny had a leg reared back ready to kick at the human another time, but he held it at Fluttershy's orders.
“Mugen, the first step to being kind is to contain your anger and let little things go. Sure, angel bunny kicked you upside the head, but he only did it because he's out to protect me. And Angel Bunny, how dare you mister. I taught you better than that.” Fluttershy scolded them both, she pointed a hoof menacingly at them, “Now make up.”
Mugen looked to the bunny. Angel looked to Mugen, he held out a paw...Mugen took the paw and nodded. Fluttershy sat on her haunches and beamed at the two, “Good, forgiveness is out of the way. Lets move onto caring about other creatures.”
…..
“Come here little fella.” Mugen whistled at the bunny family who cautiously sniffed at his hand. With a quick hop they grabbed the food and ran off. Mugen groaned, he's been feeding the little critters for over an hour, and not a single one was warming up to him.
“Oh don't worry Mugen, there are plenty of creatures around here, I'm sure one will warm up to you.” Fluttershy consoled the human from other side of the small field they were in.
Out of the corner of his eye, Mugen saw it. He crouched into a defensive stance and nearly yelled at Fluttershy, “Run! Just run Fluttershy!” Mugen began to charge, “WAIT!” Fluttershy dove in front of Mugen as he charged at the lumbering bear.
Fluttershy turned to it, “Hello there Mrs.Bear. This is Mugen, he's gonna be the one to give you some munchies today.”
Mugen's jaw dropped, she even took care of damn BEARS. He shook his head as Fluttershy handed him a pot filled with honey.
Mugen took a cautious step forward, the bear cocked its head at him and plopped down onto its haunches. Mugen took another step, and another step, the awareness of the bear building up with every step.
Mugen, gingerly and slowly extended the pot of honey over to the bear...and bear shoved its whole snout it as it eagerly devoured the honey. When the bear was done, it started licking Mugen's hand.
“Awww, mama bear likes you!” Fluttershy squeed, and that's when Mugen noticed the two cubs watching from the tree line.
….
Mugen sat down, exhausted from feeding, coaxing and otherwise taking care of animals. He was dead beat tired. He looked at the sun high in the sky, “Hey Flutterbabe, what time is it?” Mugen asked, shielding his eyes from the blinding glare.
“If you're worrying about your date tonight Mugen, you have an hour until it's time. It's okay for you to go get ready. By the way....why do you keep calling me Flutterbabe....not that I take offense to it or anything.” The pegasus answered as she scooted a chicken towards he chicken coop.
Mugen smiled, “Eeyup, tonight is a pony night so there isn't much for to get ready. As to why I keep calling you that...I don't rightly know...i just find it a funny nick name for you.” He shrugged as he rested against the side of her cottage.
He smiled at the sky, blissfully ignorant of the world around...that is until something nuzzled his arm. Mugen looked down to find bot bear cubs laying down next to him. They lazily licked their lips and looked up at him with their orb like eyes. Mugen grinned and scratched their ears...eager for his date in less than an hour.
….
“So how ya'll enjoying Fluttershy's Mugen?” Applejack asked him in that drawl of hers. Mugen smirked, “Well...I made friends with a mama bear and her cubs.” Applejack raised an eye brow at him as she led him down the street.
“Hey where are we going anyway?” Mugen asked curiously. Applejack chuckled at the question, “The same 'Ol place that this...us...where we started. You and ah are gonna drunk off our rockers again.”
Mugen chuckled quietly, even though he's been turning into a pony for a while now he was still having trouble adjusting from two legs, to four. He nearly fell but Applejack caught him with her side, “Ah got ya Mugen. Ah got you.”
Mugen looked up, “Well, it looks like we're here.” Applejack chuckled as she and pony Mugen stepped inside the familiar bar. They trotted right up to the bar, “'Evning Berry Punch, Mugen and ah are here to get drunk outta our minds.”
The bartender immediately took out two drinks, “Won't cost you two a thing, an annomymous donor gave you two a thousand bit tab for the both of you.”
Mugen and Applejack glanced at eachother, then shrugged their shoulders and began to drink.
An hour later...
“Come on, Aj, Come on Aj. GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO!” Mugen cheered for his mare friend as she threw the pong and with a little plop the tiny ball landed in the cup.
“YES! AHAHA! Mugen, looks like ya'll gotta take a drink.” Applejack flashed Mugen a brilliant smile that made his heart beat faster. But Mugen flashed a smile right back as he took a swig of his drink.
“Alright sugar cube, now it's yer turn to throw.” Applejack slurred at him as she held her glass in the air.
Mugen took careful aim and threw the tiny ball...and it scattered far off from the cup completely missing it.
Applejack laughed aloud as she slurred out, “Mugen, ya gotta drink again. Heehee.” Mugen smirked and took another swig without saying a word. He was loving Applejack more and more.
…
11 O'clock at night...
Mugen and Applejack stumbled along, “Ap-applejack...why...why are you so..so hard working?” Mugen slurred out. Applejack looked at him, “C-cus thats how I was raised.”
Applejack stumbled but Mugen caught her, “Woah be careful there hon.” Applejack smiled at Mugen...and kissed him straight on the lips.
Mugen's eyes went wide with shock as Applejack's lips pressed against his. The moment ended too soon as Applejack pulled away.
Applejack looked him straight in the eye and smiled, “Did ya'll like that Mugen, well ya'll can have more.” The pungent scent of alchohol wafted through Mugen's nose and a knowing smile came on his lips.
“I really do want more Aj, but you're drunk. So I'm gonna pass, don't want you to do anything you'll regret tonight.” Mugen sighed, it was the truth, he really, REALLY wanted Applejack, but he didn't want to make things awkward in the morning.
Applejack snickered, “ Mugen, ah am drunk, and ah appreciate you being a gentlecolt, but ah planned on doing this fer awhile now. Ah've been dreaming about yah Mugen, Every night. Ah enjoy my time with you Mugen, and ah find myself working twice as hard and twice as fast just to see yah.”
Mugen looked Applejack right in the eye, she was telling the truth, he wouldn't doubt it. She IS the element of honesty after all. Mugen rolled what she said in her head a bit, before he locked his lips to hers.
Heat flushed his face as Mugen pressed his snout deeper into the kiss, Applejack's tongue flitted into his mouth and started a dance with his own. For a full minute the couple's lips battled with one another until they finally pulled free, gasping for breath.
Mugen stepped back staring into those perfect eyes, “ Well, ah hoped this might happen Mugen, come on. The family isn't home right now...so it'll just be you...and me.” Applejack smiled at Mugen, and winked right at him.
….
Mugen grunted, as sunlight pierced his skull. Something was moving next to him, he rolled over onto his other side to see Applejack stirring. The farm mare smiled at him and gave him a quick kiss, “G'morning Mugen. How'd ya'll asleep...well..after?” Mugen smiled right back, “I slept like a baby, you rocked my world last night Aj.” He laughed and Applejack chuckled a bit herself.
“Hey...uhhhh Mugen....can...can ah ask what ya'll dreamed about with me in it?” Applejack asked nervously. Mugen put a hoof to his chin in thought, and after a minute he says, “Why don't we both tell the other what dreamed at the exact same time?”
Applejack smirked, held a hoof up and spat on it, “That's a done deal.” Mugen cocked an eye brow and spat on his own hoof and shook the farm mares hoof.
They looked each other in the eye, “On the count of three?” Mugen asks, Aj just nods and Mugen begins to count, “Three...two....one.” At the exact same moment they both confessed their dreams, “I dream of you riding on my...manhood... in human Aj form while you continuously moan and shout at me to 'Ride it cow pony'”
“Ah keep dreaming of you an ah....uhhh rollin in the hay.”
They both eyed each other....then busted out laughing. After a minute Applejack wiped a tear out of her eyes with a hoof, “Ahhhh, last night was great Mugen. It was real special...especially for mah...first time.” Applejack looked away with a blush on her face.
Mugen smirked and held his medallion aloft, “Mugen.” In a flash of golden light, he was back in his regular human form. Applejack smirked back, “Well ya'll should really get back to Fluttershy, ah know fer sure she's worried sick...even though I sent her a note explaining things. And ah got work back on the farm.”
Mugen nodded, “ See ya again tonight?” Applejack nodded her head, and after a quick embrace the two departed.
….
“That'll be thirteen bits ma'am.” Fuu held her hand out for the money. With a huff the mare gave her the bits, “That is an outrageous price for a pastry.”
Fuu almost immediately shot out, “Just wait till you try it ma'am.” The mare in question rolled her eyes and walked away from the counter.
Fuu felt it the instant it started happening, Fuu ducked down just as Pinkie Pie zoomed over her head. Pinkie slammed onto the floor of the shop with a loud “ Ooomph.”
Pinkie shot straight up as if nothing happened, “Awwwww...Fuuey, how'd you know?” Fuu smiled at the party mare, “After a couple months of living with you I develpoed....* she strikes a pose * Fuu-pie sense.”
The party pony's smile grew even wider as she guffawed, “You big smelly, silly willy. You don't have a pie anywhere in your name.”
Fuu chuckled, “Well it only works for when you try to 'surprise' me...so its essentially a sense that only works if YOUR coming.”
Pinkie laughed again, “Okie dokie lokie, I'll be in the back helping the cakes bake more CUPCAKES!!! I LOVE CUPCAKES!!!”
Fuu laughed as her crazy, pink friend bounced back into the kitchen of Sugar Cube Corner.
….
“Wow.” Rainbow Dash said, barely keeping her jaw off of the floor. Twilight soundlessly nodded her in agreement, she was speechless.
Rarity walked in the front door, “Twilight, dear I need to borrow....Oh dear.” The diva's eyes grew wide as she drank in the scene before her.
Jin was holding out two humongous, clay pots out at arms length with nothing but his fingers. He had a band underneath each arm that had a spike protruding from them that would stab him in the side if he let the weights drop even slightly...and to top it all off he was squatting over a hot poker that would burn him if he lowered himself even a fraction of an inch.
Jin wasn't even breaking a sweat...and he had been doing this for fifteen minutes now.
“Uhmmm what are you doing dear?” Rarity cautiously asked, her eyes refusing to leave the odd scene before her.
Jin grunted, “We of the bushido code must continually train every day. What I'm doing now is a part of that. It's nothing once you get used to it.” The ronin continued to do...whatever he was doing as the three mares just watched in amazed silence.
….
“Well ate least you had a great time Mugen. I'm just surprised that you....uhhh....well if you don't mind me saying, stayed the night to...to...” Fluttershy started, blushing madly the time while tending to the animals.
Mugen smirked and finished her thought for her, “Tussle in the hay.” The way she eeped and turned redder than a tomatoe made Mugen roar and guffaw with laughter.
Mugen continued snickering as he held out a handful of oats to the bunnies. For whatever reason they didn't scare off and actually nuzzled his hand a little before hopping off to do what ever the fuck it is rabbits do when they're taken care of all the time.
“Hey...uhmm...Mugen...if you don't mind me asking can you....uhmmm go a little ways into the Ever Free forest and gather some fire wood....if you don't mind that is.” The pegasus stuttered out, still blushing furiously.
Mugen chuckled and didn't say a word as he went off into the woods. He strolled along whistling a rhythm-less tune, he gathered fire wood as the night before replayed constantly in his head. But something snapped his attention back to the real world. The sound of something...whimpering.
Mugen listened close and followed the noise to its source. When he rounded the corner of an oak tree, a pang of...something shot through his soul. There was a fox with a hug gash in its side. The blood of the beast painted an area around the critter...but it was still breathing. The beast looked him in the eye and Mugen... Mugen picked the fox up, dropping the fire wood and darted off to Fluttershy's home, fox in his arms.
…
Jin was now on one hundred and twenty three....pushups...with one arm. Twilight, RD and Rarity were still awe struck at how much the human could...do. Even Spike had joined them, no pony uttered a word as they watched Jin train.
“One hundred and twenty five!” Jin grunted as he raised himself up again.
BOOM!
Everypony jumped as a blinding golden flash appeared right beside Jin, the human scrambled to distance himself from the light....when Celestia of all ponies appeared before them.
“Celestia? What are you doing here?” Twilight asked, in utter confusion.
Celestia smiled at her prized student before turning to Jin, “Good, I hoped I wouldn't have to look far for you. Listen, I have been thinking...Queen Chrysalis of the changelings easily defeated me. I wish to remedy my weakness and have come to ask you Jin...teach me how to fight.”
Jin blinked in surprise more than anything, “Well...Princess you use magic, how could I teach you to fight?”
Celestia smiled, “Your style focuses on remaining calm, striking hard and striking fast. I already know how to fight with my magic...I more over need physical training.” The sun goddess smiled a hopeful smile at the ronin.
Jin smiled in turn, “Very well Princess, I will alter the training of Bushido to fit you more, but I do warn you...the training of samurai is the most difficult training you will ever face.”
The human and the princess locked eyes with a smile.
1 hour later...
Celestia had three pots on her back, each was filled to the brim with sand and had symbols etched into them. SWOOSH. The now all too familiar sound of the whip Jin used flew by over her head, “TOO HIGH! GET LOWER!MOVE BETWEEN THE PILES OF BOOKS!” Jin managed to shout without even raising his voice.
The princess gasped for breath, lowering he legs to a crouch as she steadily moved between the piles of books around the library, all while desperately trying to keep the pots from falling. He had warned he there would be hell to pay if she dropped even one...if this wasn't hell she didn't want to know what was.
There it was the finish... Celestia licked her lips in anticipation before increasing her speed...ten feet..five feet...FINISHED! Celestia trembled past the finish and waited for the order she so desperately craved, “Okay time for a small break.” Jin said.
Celestia smiled in relief as she used her magic to remove the weights, she stretched her legs after crouching for so long she coul- “Alright, back to work, breaks over.” Jin said...in utter seriousness.
Celestia's face grew slack with shock...and in the back ground she heard Spike murmur, “Now that's cruel.”
….
Mugen sat next to the fox, it was all bandaged up now...but it was fast asleep. Mugen smirked as he watched the fox, he had thought for sure that it would die...but Fluttershy can work true magic.
Speak of the devil, “Oh my gosh Mugen, thank you for getting this fox back to me as quick as you could.” Fluttershy smiled as she came in to the room.
Mugen just shrugged and looked up to the ceiling...when something started to nuzzle his hand. Mugne looked down at his hand to see the fox rubbing its face against the palm of his hand.
Mugen started to scratch the fox behind the ears, “Is it a boy or girl?”
“Girl.” Fluttershy shot the answer out almost immediately, as if she rehearsed it.
Mugen looked at the fox who was practically purring as he pet it, “Well girl, I'm going to start calling you Foxy. Yeah, yeah so what, it's uncreative. What are you gonna do? Sue me?”
Mugen could swear the fox smiled at him as he continued to pet it and Fluttershy actually laughed.
“Well Mugen, I think you got yourself a pet now.” Fluttershy said, a smile covering her face.
Mugen couldn't help but crack a grin of his own.
….
Over the course of a month a routine was quickly established for Mugen, he'd get up, take care of and feed the animals who warmed up to him rather quickly. After that, he'd stick with Foxy, play with her, feed her, change bandages etc.
The fox adored Mugen, it would more often than not clamber into his lap and just lay there lazily, blinking occasionally as he stroked her fur.
But even after what...two or maybe three months...he still eagerly looked forward to his dates with Applejack, things had gotten a lot, a lot more open after that night.
Mugen smiled, recalling the fond memories and he scratched Foxy behind the ears.
Knock Knock.
Some Pony was at the door, Mugen was closest so he called out to Fluttershy, “I got it!” Mugen stood up much to the dislike of his still healing pet and he lumbered over to the door.
“Hell- Oh my my my” Mugen smiled flirtatiously, stroking his beard he leaned against the open door, “What brings you out here beautiful?”
Human Applejack smiled, she was wearing the same GOREGEOUS get up from that first date. Even her damn hair was the same...must have been a pain in the ass getting all the way out here.
“Well, ah couldn't stand to wait a mite bit longer so ah thought I'd come and get yer ass.” That familiar drawl washed over Mugen, bringing with him pure bliss.
“Hey Fluttershy I'm...going out?” Mugen blinked as his hostess simply strolled past and outside.
“No you're not, some pony's gotta stay and take care of the animals. I've just realized that I'm running low on...on MEDICAL SUPPLIES! Yeah...yeah that's it I need to go grab some medical supplies immediately, just in case something happens.”
Mugen could have swore that the shy pegasus winked at Applejack as she trotted nervously past, before quickly darting down the lane.
Mugen shrugged and stepped back, allowing Applejack to step through the door.
…
Celestia and Jin established a routine of their own, either she would teleport to him or vice versa. The training regime was just as he said it would be...brutal to the core.
Celestia found herself absolutely exhausted as they days wore by as Jin seemed to pull more and more ridiculous excersises out of his ass.
Celestia grew wide eyed with fear at her current predicament in this particular work out. “YOU'RE MASTERS WERE CRAZY IF THEY REALLY USED THIS AS TRAINING JIN!”
The sun goddess hung from a beam and a rope...right above a fire that Jin gently fanned, Celestia had to continually flop around doing crunches...while hanging upside down. She had a hard enough time as is being an alicorn...but she managed.
“IF I DON'T SWITCH OVER TO MY BACK OR STOMACH IN TIME THE FIRE'LL BURN ME!!! JIN YOU'R CRAZY!!!!” The princess raged out in panic as she switched again.
Jin's lips upturned slightly into a small smile.
One of the royal guards whispered to another, “I am really, REALLY glad that human was not our teacher.”
Jin's slight smirk became a full blown smile at the thought, “Hey Princess, if it's okay with you could I train your royal guards too?”
The two that were watching the show paled almost immediately.
….
It had been an hour and the couple were laughing inside the warm and cozy cottage.
Mugen sighed as he finished laughing, a small cup of homemade sake in his hand, “I wonder what's taking Flutter so long. She's been gone awhile.”
Applejack rolled her emerald eyes, “Ya'll are a lot denser than yah look Mugen, she didn't really have to go fer medical supplies..she and ah worked out a little...arrangement.”
“Wait...so she's not coming back?” Mugen asked curiously.
Applejack rolled her eyes again, “Mugen..haven't ya'll noticed that there aren't any critters hanging around?”
Mugen glanced around seeing that she was right, there wasn't an animal to be found, not even Angel Bunny. “Yeah you're right.”
Applejack stood up from her spot on the catch, very suddenly. Mugen looked around very confused, but Applejack cut him off before he could say anything.
“Ya'll remember when we told each other what we had dreamed about the other?” The woman drawled quietly.
Mugen nodded, suddenly very scared, did she hate him for what he dreamed. But wait...why get angry now instead of all the time ago?
She turned to face him, “Well...ah got mah dream to come true...but ya'll still ain't got yers.” And with that she tugged at her belt and the whole kimono came crashing down, revealing a very naked Applejack.
Mugen's eyes grew wide as his girl friend stepped towards him seductively, he silently drank in the sight of her with his eyes, memorizing every detail.
He was thankful there wasn't anyone but a near by sleeping Foxy.
….
Mugen gave a very content sigh as he wrapped an arm around the still sleeping Applejack. She was huddled against his chest, snoring softly as she slept. Mugen smiled down at the sleeping woman on his chest, they were both still very naked, but under the covers at least.
That's when he noticed two pairs of eyes staring at him, he looked up seeing Foxy and Angel Bunny staring at him. He blinked and began to ask something when Foxy tossed him his cloths and Angel threw Applejack's kimono at her.
Applejack flailed her arms out, “SPY SAPPING MAH SENTRY!!!” The farm woman looked around confused, her gaze rested on Angel who was tapping his feet and pointing...at something.
“What is ya'll are worked up fer little guy?” Applejack drawled.
They heard the door downstairs begin to open, “Oh love birds...Fluttershy is home...if that's okay that is.”
The two still very naked and still very much in Fluttershy's bed glanced at one another...and began to
Hoofsteps started coming up the steps...the steps started coming closer and closer down the hall...the door flew open with a SLAM!
“Time to wake up sleepy- Oh...you're awake. That's...that's nice. I hope you two had a nice date last night. And Mugen,” Fluttershy smiled deviously at the human, “I better not find any cum stains in my sheets!”
Mugen's jaw dropped to the ground, he and Applejack managed to get fully dressed in time, AJ's hair was still disheveled from bed head, but what the hay? Did she really just say what he thought she said?
Flutteshy laughed at the look of disbelief on his face, “Oh you silly, willy, I'm only teasing. Besides, I'm not as clueless as you think.”
She turned to leave the room, “Oh and by the way...” Fluttershy began to blush redder than a tomato, “Next time you ask Big Mac if he managed to 'ride Flutterbabe to the next millennium'... he'll be able to say yes.”
Mugen's jaw hit the ground as the words went through his head.
…
Celestia barely galloped harder as the whip snapped next to her head, “RUN FASTER...I'VE MET TURTLES THAT CAN RUN FASTER THAN YOU!” Jin still managed to yell without even raising his voice above a normal voice.
Celestia was dragging Jin along, tied by a rope to a home made sled, complete with an extra two hundred pounds of weight attached to the sled.
“By Equestria Jin, will I have to run these embarrassing marathons for the rest of my life? Why are we doing this around Canterlot anyway? This is ruining my reputation!” The Princess groaned as Jin's whip continued to snap.
“REPUTATION?!!? DO YOU THINK THE ENEMIES OF EQUESTRIA WILL CARE ABOUT YOUR REPUTATION? DO YOU THINK YOUR SUBJECTS WILL BE ASHAMED OF THESE MARATHONS THAT YOU RUN WHEN YOU DEFEAT ALL OF THEIR ENEMIES! NOW STOP WHINING AND RUN FASTER!!!” Jin continued to rant in his odd way of yelling without yelling as all of Canterlot observed the strange scene before them.
….
Fluttershy bust down the door to her cottage home, startling Mugen as he fed a pair of birds.
“MUGEN! ANGEL BUNNY!! EVER FREE FOREST!!! DANGER!!! GO!!! HELP NOW!!!” The shy pegasus nearly screamed. Mugen looked to the birds and darted out the door and bolted straight into Ever free forest...following the tracks of the bunny of course.
….
Mugen didn't like this...he didn't like this one bit. He whirled to the side dodging another swipe from the manticore, still holding little angel bunny in his arms. He weaved in between trees when he was sure the Manticore was lunging at him. Mugen whipped his blade out of his sheath and did a back flip into the air, there it was the manticore diving straight at him.
The beast looked up in surprise as Mugen slammed his blade down right into its skull. The beast crumpled.
Mugen grasped Angel Bunny and held him up and looked him right in the eyes, “I'm going to tell you the same thing I told a friend of mine once...you're not allowed to die...because I'm going to be the one to kill you.”
To Be continued...
This chapter was a lot of fun to write...i left continuous references to one of my favorite anime's and maga's of all time amongst all of the Jin scenes in this particualar chapter. TEN THOUSAND INTERNETS to who ever gets the references. Also, the fuu scene may have seemed pointless, but I put it in there so you would be assured I did not forget her...relax I have plans for her.
The familiar sound of a cracking whip reverberated through the air...but instead of wooshing past it hit Celestia right in the flank. Her hooves were bound and she was gagged. SMACK! Celestia...moaned with pleasure as a bluish earth pony stepped into view wearing very familiar glasses...pony Jin raised the whip in his teeth again...
Celestia bolted upright in her bed, sweat coalesced on her brow and she was panting....but weirdest of all was he...arousal. Celestia pondered this for a moment, “As Mugen would say....Fuck.”
….
A very familiar looking woman was laying on her side, with her head propped on one hand she faced Jin. She was in very...revealing clothes that perfectly complimented her curves. The woman smiled flirtatiously at Jin, “Well...master...what's today's lesson?” Celestia's voice rang throughout Jin's skull.
Jin sat straight up, a little bit of sweat beaded on his forehead and he was breathing heavy. Jin lay there in the darkness that Celestia had lent to him. It was one of the most spacious sweets in the entire castle, Twilight had been reluctant to let him go, but Celestia insisted on his coming here to help her train.
Jin stared at his hand in the darkness of the night, a frown formed at his face, “This is quiet the problem...especially since I know she has power enough to give herself human form.”
….
The rest of the month that Mugen had left with Fluttershy drifted by in a haze. He fed and cared for the animals in a state of utter bliss, Foxy healed up and instead of heading back into the Ever Free, she followed Mugen everywhere and did what ever he told her to.
Mugen was genuinely surprised at how well the fox had taken to him, he expected it to dart as soon as she could.
Angel Bunny, that little bastard was quite the enemy. After Mugen saved the rabbit, Fluttershy was beyond ecstatic over his rescue...but the little runt continued to make “I'm watching you” gestures to the human.
And Mugen would in turn give him the “Up yours” gesture, which infuriated the animal much to Mugen's amusement.
Fluttershy didn't even say a word as she slapped a hoof upside Mugen's head. Mugen groand and rubbed the back of his head...even though they were tiny, pony hooves still hurt like hell.
“Come on Mugen, Pinkie and Fuu are waiting for us at Sugar Cube Corner.” Fluttershy stated blankly, walking by Mugen without so much as a glance.
…
Mugen opened the door to the bakery, “Hello?” Mugen asked the blackness of the bakery. Mugen grunted, absolutely sure it was a party of some kind.
Mugen rolled his, “Well Pinkie, its not much of a surprise party if I know its coming.” The human nearly shouted into the blackness of the shop. He grunted and took a step into the blackness.
Mugen glanced around in the utter blackness, completely sure they would hop out and try to “surprise” Mugen.
The lights snapped on and Mugen smirked, waiting for the shouting of “SURPRISE!” A minute passed, Mugen opened his eyes and looked around. No Pinkie, no Fuu, no cakes, no party nothing.
Mugen turned to ask Fluttershy, but she was gone too. Mugen grunted and stroked his chin in thought. He turned around....
“PINKIE PIEYRUKEN!” The party mare delivered a hell of an uppercut, spinning around in the air as she launched herself and Mugen into the air.
“FUURYUKEN!” The human girl flashed out of nowhere and continued the chain further launching the completely caught off guard human into the air.
Mugen fell to the ground, thinking What the fuck just happened?
The human woman and the pink party pony slapped a hoof and a hand together, their eyes lit ablaze as they shouted to the heavens themselves, “PARTYRYUKEN!” The dynamic duo launched themselves into the air with the gravity and law defying physics of Pinkie style, creating the ultimate creation of an uppercut.
Mugen slammed into the ceiling of the bakery before falling face first onto the ground, kncoked
Fuu glanced at Pinkie, Pinkie glanced back, worry painted both of their faces.
“Pinkie....”
“Yeah?”
“I think we over did it with the greeting.”
….
Celestia paced in her room calmly, she dealt with problems just as...odd before. She wouldn't allow this sudden interest in her new teacher to ruin any relations with him...but neither could she retain this secret without it driving her to madness.
A knock interrupted her thoughts, Celestia's head darted up, “What is it?”
“Your...teacher...wishes to speak to you immediately Princess. He assures you it has nothing to do with training, he has something very...important to discuss with you.” The familiar voice of one of guards sounded through the thick doors to her private chambers.
Celestia's eyes grew wide with panic, Jin...here?NOW? Celestia bustled about, levitating a brush to her mane, Is my mane neat? Do I have bed head? Do I smell? Wait...why am I panicking? Celestia calmed herself and let the brush drop and trotted over to her pillow...throne...thingy. She never did come up with a name for it.... She cleared her voice before she finally spoke up, “Send him in.”
The doors opened and the familiar blue robed Ronin walked in before dropping to his his knees in a bow. Celestia blinked, he hadn't done that in a long time. She opened her mouth to speak but the sudden near shouting cut her off.
“Forgive me Princess, I have failed you...failed Equestria, my new home and every pony every where. I humbly ask your forgiveness.”
Celestia blinked, unsure of what the hell just happened. “You have done nothing Jin.”
“But I have your majesty. You see I-” The ronin gulped, still hunched over face glaring to the floor, adamantly refusing to look up, “I have...I-I-I...I DREAMED OF DOING SEXUAL THINGS WITH YOU LAST NIGHT!”
Celestia's eyes grew wide with shock, he did what? The reality hit Celestia after a minute of pondering, the corners of her lips drew up into a slight smile. Her horn glowed with magic and a nearby bottle of wine and a couple glasses floated to her.
“Rise Jin, you and I have quiet a bit to discuss...considering how I just had a similar dream last night myself.”
….
Mugen groaned...and a cupcake splattered onto his face. And that's when he felt icing all over his body and shirt. “WHAT THE FU-?” The shout was cut off as yet another cupcake was shoved in his face, this time right in the mouth.
“Watch your language pig, there's impressionable foals in this household. And we've been trying to wake you up with cupcakes. I told Pinkie water works better, but hey, who can argue with her for long?” Fuu's voice rang out over to Mugen's left.
“Fuuryuken? Partyryuken?” Mugen asked dryly as he wiped more cupcake mash off of his face.
“OOOOmemememememe.Wetotalyymadeuptheseawesomefightingmovestobattlebaddieswithbecausewe'retottalycoollikeknowwhatImean?” The excited blabber of Pinkie's rant flowed through one of Mugen's ears and right out the other.
“Pinkie?” Mugen called to the party pony.
“How..how are you going to teach me laughter? “
“Oh that's easy you big smelly willy, we're gonna go find ponies who got a big frownie face and make em all go smiley face!” The party mare of Pony Ville got closer to Mugen with every word until her forehead was pressed against his.
Mugen sighed, “Can I take a shower first?”
Pinkie's mouth unhinged like a snakes, a very bright pink but party crazed snake, and she managed to fit...the...WHOLE..human in her mouth and with a sickening spluch, she brought her head back up, leaving a very spittle soaked Mugen, without a trace of cupcake on him.
“Why take a shower when you can eat it!” The party mare jumped and halted in mid air...completely defying the laws of physics...again.
Mugen didn't even respond, his scowl deepened as he stared at nothing in particular, wondering how in the hell he would survive the next two months of his life....and wanting to bathe even more.
….
Jin's eyes rolled over Celestia, drinking every bit of the sight of her with eyes. He longed to simply stroke her mane, just to see what the waving mane felt like.
Silky. The mane was silky smooth as Jin ran his fingers through it. He coiled it around his finger and the mane continued to wave in its rolling motions as if he wasn't holding it all. Jin marveled over every miniscule detail of the mane in his hands...that is until a polite cough interrupted his train of thought.
“Jin...” Celestia simply stated his name, no emotion, no accusing tone, but with a slight upturn of her lips.
Jin blushed furiously as he bowed his head and muttered apologies, until Celestia let out a hearty guffaw. The human dared a glance up at the Princess. She was smiling down at him, suppressing a fit of giggles.
Her smile widened as her mane shout out towards Jin, the hair of her mane wrapped itself around Jin's arms, gently and plopped into his hand. “If you were so curious about my mane, why didn't you just ask?” The princess of the sun teased the man.
Jin couldn't help but smile as he began to examine Celestia's odd mane even further.
….
A month had passed...and Mugen had only learned one thing...Pinkie Pie made less sense than he had originally thought....and Applejack...well....damn. He smiled across at his date, it was a pony night for the young couple. “Well then what Mugen? Ya'll can't just start a good story like that and not tell me how it ends. That just ain't fair, ain't fair at all.” The farm grinned at Mugen as she put the question to him.
Mugen's signature smirk cracked into a full blown grin, “Well yah see there sugar that's the funny part. I don't know what happened next. Pinkie's party cannon fired...prematurely...right in the back of my head. When I woke up, there was a note on the ceiling...written in icing... ' Sorry I knocked you out with the party cannon! Love yah! -Pinks'.” Mugen chuckled as he recalled the odd thing he saw right before his date.
Applejack pouted, “Aw gosh darnit Mugen, why'd you start spinning such a good yarn if ya'll didn't know how it ended.” Mugen chuckled at her, his grin stretching from ear to ear.
Applejack sighed and rolled her eyes at her date, “Well...ah just hope that little colt got cheered up by Pinkie. If anyone could cheer him up, it'd be her.”
Mugen continued grinning as their food arrived, two simple hay sandwiches on rye bread, Mugen's favorite when in pony form.
Mugen became lost as he devoured the delicious sandvich when a very particular thought slammed across his head like a cavalry charge. “Hey AJ. I can't channel magic in the slightest right? Well then how is Twi gonna teach me the element of magic?”
Applejack pondered for exactly three seconds, “Ah ain't gotta clue...let Twi think of that.”
Mugen shrugged, not caring either, when again a thought rammed its way into his mind. “Hey AJ, you said earlier, that Big Mac and the whole Apple family were out again right?”
Applejack's eyes grew wide with realization as to what he colt friend was thinking. The farm mare gave him a rather seductive smile and licked her lips before shooting a hoof into the air. “Waiter, ah reckon we're ready for our check.”
…
Jin has been having the time of his life for the past month. He still rigorously trained Celestia, but after wards...
The dates the two had were frequent and both could never contain their mirth. Celestia hadn't been this happy, well... she couldn't recall being this happy. Jin's personality was the perfect fit for the princess and vice versa.
But Jin had called to Celestia earlier with a very odd question. Did Celestia have time to take a month long trip?
Jin walked briskly right through the doors to Celestia's throne room and right up to her bowing right before he dropped to his knees in his traditional sitting position.
Celestia blinked at her colt friend...haha....it still made her giddy even thinking the phrase. It made her feel like a filly. She shook her head, no time to be distracted, he had something important to say. “Well, Jin? What is so important that you would me to leave for a month? I need a good reason to just dump all of the responsibility on her sister.” The sun princess glanced at her sister who rolled her eyes. “Dearest Tia, if thine colt friend would like to whisk you away for a month, thoust deserves a break after ruling for so long. We can handle the stress of the job.”
Jin...cocked a grin before he spoke up, “Well my ladies, it isn't a trip of that nature. It is a trip between student and master. I would like to teach you, Princess Celestia, a technique of the utmost secret from my master. I use it on rare occasion because I can't handle using it for very long, but a goddess? Do not take this lightly, my even considering imparting this knowledge on you would have me be headed and dishonored in Japan.”
The sisters eyes widened, Celestia managed to choke out in surprise, “You want to teach ME one of those hidden techniques of yours?”
Jin's unfamiliar grin cracked even further as he responded, “Well, Tia...I want you to be able to protect yourself and this technique is perfect for guarding against physical attacks from all sides.”
Celestia blinked, “Pray tell, does this 'technique' have a name?”
Jin nodded quickly, “Yes... it is called the seikuken.”
….
Mugen whistles the tune to “Winter Wrap Up” as he idly strolls down the street. Fuu and Pinkie had something to do and wanted to keep it a secret from everyone so Mugen was sent off to do whatever he felt like.
He wanted to go to Applejacks. He really, REALLY wanted to go to Applejack's but she was busy with work and he didn't want to distract her. Mugen frowned as he stopped his merry whistling....what the fuck was he supposed to do?
He turned the corner and stopped dead in his tracks. The human had somehow wandered to the school yard...and the CMC were near to tears as two particular fillies pointed hooves at the three and laughed, most of the other fillies and colts were joining in.
Mugen's eyes narrowed at the two fillies leading it all...and then he smirked as he came up with a plan.
Mugen began to clap his hands very slowly, deliberately taking his time as he strolled up to the group of foals. The laughing ceased and all eyes turned to the familiar human as he chuckled a painfully forced laugh.
“Ha ha ha hoo hee ha ha.” Mugen said blankly as he stepped within a mere couple feet of the overly primped and pampered fillies. One was a light pink with a purple mane and white stripe going through it. She had a little tiara on her head and as a cutie mark.
Her companion was gray with a pure silver mane and a simple spoon as a cutie mark. Mugen saw this and couldn't help but snicker at the two of them.
He smirked and laughed again, “HA HA HA HA!” The man pointed to their cutie marks, “Yours is a tiara... how in Celestia's equestria is that useful in any way, shape or form?” Mugen glanced over at the spoon girl, “And yours is a spoon...I got nothing...Oh wait...do you make spoons? That is soooooo useful.” Mugen's voice dripped with sarcasm.
The little ones both huffed and glared, they opened their mouths to respond but Mugen clamped a hand over their snouts. “I want you to think really hard for a moment...you know what I've done. You know I fought and defeated an Ursa Major...I'm sure you remember the ursa minor, and you probably saw my duel with Jin.”
Mugen took his hands off of their snouts and stood to his full height, still glaring down into them, cold rage in his eyes, “You ever...and I mean ever...bully Sweetie, Scoots and Bloom again...I won't do a thing to you. But the same doesn't go for your pompous father.” The two fillies jaws hit the ground and Mugen spun around, “As for you three...”
The CMC jumped, worry in their eyes as Mugen abruptly shouted at them. He smirked at the three fillies he held so dear in his heart. Mugen roared as he lunged at them, and grabbing all three quickly in their arms before they could react he jumped into the air, “ MUGENRYUKEN!!!!” Mugen spun around in the air and the three fillies shrieks of delight pierced his ears.
Mugen grinned, eeyup....today was a good day.
….
To be continued
sorry this took so long, stuff has been going and I caught writers block...again. It's not as long as I would have liked it to be but what the hay... well I hope you enjoyed it as usual.
“Expand your senses Tia, sense the fish in the river, kick them out with nothing but your hooves and put them back in the water.” Jin said calmly. The human took another sip of his tea, he sat on his knees on a rock on a hill above the river that Celestia was standing in.
They were in the far country, the surrounding area was peaceful and serene. Mountains rolled in the distance, the air was thick with the scent of the deep woods and the sun glowed high in the sky. It was a picturesque beauty that both the alicorn and human drank in with their senses.
Celestia panted, Expand your senses...what does that even mean? The Alicorn was soaked through after a full two hours in the river. She was exhausted, her mane was ruined and she was splattered in river mud.
Celestia glared at the river, she could see the fish plain as day, so close yet so terribly far. She frowned lost in thought until Jin shattered the silence with a chuckle.
“Tia...let me give you a hint. Close your eyes, take a deep breath and wait. You'll know when your doing it right. It will take a while.
Celestia blinked, completely disbelieving that this would work, but.... everything else she's done has been a total failure. And Jin had done this before so he would know what he's talking about.
Celestia closed her eyes and inhaled, she became still as a statue as the water of the small river flowed around her hooves...like a rock parting the water.
….
Mugen couldn't help but grin in the darkness of the bedroom. The sun shone through in a tiny sliver in the window, making the room glow with the sunset Human Applejack kissed him right on the lips, ferociously. Their tongues shot in each others mouths, tangling and dancing with each other.
Mugen broke off after a minute, sighing contentedly. Applejack rested her head on his chest, her loose hair fell like a waterfall over her naked chest. She sighed in contentment...until something poked her. She chuckled and playfully slapped Mugen's chest, “Now don't ya'll start getting hard on me again, Mugen ah don't rightly think ah can handle another round.”
Mugen laughed and brought the farmer in for another kiss. Tomorrow...yup...tomorrow without a doubt in my mind. He groaned playfully at the lips pressed against his. Before AJ reluctantly pulled her face away.
“We should stop, get changed. Ah reckon Big Mac will be back with Applebloom here soon.” Both humans sighed as they redressed quickly and before either could say a word, sure enough:
“MUGEN!” The familiar shout of an excited Applebloom rang throughout the house.
Mugen couldn't help but grin, he loved that filly like she was his own. “I'm coming squirt! Are the other squirts with yah?”
“Hey! Mugen we are not squirts!” The familiar frustrated yell that Scootaloo gave made Mugen flat out laugh.
Eeyup, I'm doing it tomorrow.
…
Celestia grinned as she panted, the fish she had managed to kick out flopped around on the river side. Jin clapped his hand as Celestia scooped the fish back into the river.
“Congrats Tia, you managed to finish the first step to your seikuken training. You've allowed your senses to expand and drank in every last detail. That's one step down, eight more to go.” Jin said in her familiar, calm and emotionless voice.
Celestia groaned, eight more trials like this? But then a thought struck her, a devious one. The sun goddess turned around, directly away from Jin and leaned down to drink from the river. She drank deep, making slurping noises as she did. She waved her plot right up to Jin. In her mind she was giggling hysterically, her face was complete calm, yet she could feel the blush that Jin had.
“Jin.” Celestia practically moaned in the huskiest voice she could manage. “I've worked so hard today...look at me...I'm soaking wet.” The princess turned around to face Jin, he was beat red and she put on her most seductive face.
Her horn glowed with magic, and after focusing a moment the spell consumed her. And where the alicorn princess once was, now there was a young, human woman. And she was utterly naked facing Jin directly. His eyes grew wide with shock before he managed to turn away.
He opened his mouth to protest but Celestia calmly snapped her fingers, teleporting right in front of the ronin. He gasped as Celestia darted her head forwards, planting a kiss right on Jin's lips. Celestia giggled, Jin was really inexperienced at this.
She broke the kiss, and Jin couldn't look away from her eyes. The princess purred right in his ear, “I've been a princess for a few millennium now, and I must say....the same thing day in and day out has gotten so... boring. Can you help me Jin? I normally wouldn't do this sort of thing, but...I just feel so strongly for you.” The princess had started in a voice dripping with lust but lowered to a faint whisper by the end.
Jin eye's grew wider still as Celestia pinned him to the rock, she was still soaking wet, and it was making Jin's clothes damp.
Celestia made a tut tut noise, “Oh Jin, you're clothes are all wet...lets dry them off.” Jin barely managed to squeak.
….
“Alright Mugen... I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to teach you magic. You have absolutely no magic in your body and seem completely unable to use it so... I guess I'll just teach you some of the lessons I've learned since coming to Pony Ville. Every day we-” Twi had started to rant before Mugen cut her off sharply.
“Twibabe, this ain't gonna work. How about you just teach me in the morning for an hour, about something important. That's a lot simpler on both our sanity's. Besides, I've gotten something big I'm planning out for AJ and I.” Mugen was cracking his signature grin as he spoke out.
Twilight groaned, “But Muuuuuuuuuuuugeeeeeennnn!” The lavender unicorn pouted, as she thought.
Mugen chuckled, “There ya go Twibabe that's the spirit!”
Twilight cocked her human friend an eye brow, “Twibabe? Why do you keep tacking on the 'babe' at the end of our first names. I mean you got 'Flutterbabe' 'Raribabe' Dashiebabe' 'Twibabe' 'Pinkie Babe' and 'Applebabe'. Why do you keep calling us that?”
Mugen's smirk cracked across his face into a crooked grin, “You really want to know?”
Twilight nodded vigorously.
“Well it's more of a joke really. Where I come from we call attractive women...babes. It's nothing demeaning if that's what you mean.” Mugen silently turned around and gave a soft fist pump, he had gotten to use a word Twilight taught him recently and made him feel super smart.
Twilight blinked in surprise, “Huh? Odd. Oh well. Okay well here's today's lesson Mugbabe.”
Mugen chuckled, “I see what you did there Twibabe, that...that's funny coming from you.” Mugen was now laughing hysterically as what she said fully dawned on him. Normally he'd be pissed that some pony had called him a girl but coming from Twilight... what she had said...the way she said in that nerdy way of hers....he just couldn't help it. Twilight was soon laughing alongside him.
Spike even joined in from upstairs, but after a minute the laughter faded away and Twibabe spoke up, “Well, seriously, lets begin.”
Mugen just nodded, already tuning her out as he prepared the scenario with Applejack again and again in his mind. Everything had to be just...perfect.
…
Celestia scowled as the early morning sunlight pierced her skull. She sat up, aware that Jin was already up with his back against the tree behind them. He already had his clothes back on...as Mugen would say...damn.
Celestia pouted as Jin cracked her eyes at her, “Good morning dear Tia. I need you back into alicorn form, today we start at stage two.”
Celestia blinked, and cocked him a sloppy grin, “You know, I don't care how bad each day is as long as I get have THAT everynight. Celestia grinned as she waved a hand over Jin's crotch.
Jin blushed as the still very naked Celestia snapped her fingers, becoming her regular self in a flash of golden light.
“Well what do we have planned for today...master?” Celestia voiced the end of her question in the same way she had groaned out to him last night. Jin visibly shuddered, with a smile on his face as he associated the good things that came with that husky voice.
“Do as you did yesterday expand your senses but now we do it on the move. We go until I can't lay a finger on you for seven whole minutes.” Jin replied coolly and evenly.
And in a blur of motion Jin had ran around, Celestia felt him enter her little bubble of awareness but was too slow to respond...she paid for with was a hard slap on the flank. Realization hit Celestia like a bag of bricks.
“Oh you clever little devil, you're gonna distract me with my...Oh very clever indeed. Jin, but I WILL make you pay tonight.” Celestia's voice took on a menacing tone as Jin took another dive at her.
….
Mugen whistled a merry tune as he strolled non-nonchalantly down the cobbled road. Ponies waved hello and waved back, continuing his whistling. Twilight had things to do after their lesson and as such gave him the day to do as he pleased.
Mugen continued to stroll, he was on his way to set up some very important stuff for tonight. After all it had to be...perfect. That's when a throat cleared directly in front of him.
Mugen stopped and cracked an eye open, he chuckled as he saw a group of ponies clearly from Canterlot. They were dressed in fine clothing and their were about five of the... gentlecolts.
The one he guessed was the leader stepped forward, it was a unicorn in a pin striped suit and wore a fancy blue fedora. Well that's what Mugen thought it was anyway. The leader frowned at him, “Well if it isn't the ruffian human. The one who supposedly killed an Ursa Major. What utter horse apples.”
The unicorn spat at his feet. Mugen glared at the group of rich ponies, who snickered a with each other. The leader smirked. Mugen rolled his eyes...and jumped high into the air. With a flick of his wrist he drew his sword and threw it into the ground.
Mugen landed on the soles of his feet right on the hilt of the blade, now in the dead center of the five Canterlot ponies. Mugen yawned, “Well if you're gonna talk your shit...back it up you limp dick pussey.”
Mugen laughed as outrage plastered the face of the rich ponies. Some pony ville ponies looked at the scene...with utter contempt.
“You show those snobby ponies whose boss Mugen!” A nameless pony called from the crowd gathering around. Other ponies shouted similar things.
The lead unicorn glared daggers at Mugen...and charged. Mugen laughed and with a spin on his hands, he kicked the charging unicorn in the face. With a twist Mugen spun around kicking two more of the snobby ponies in the face, kicking his legs out like a pair of scissors.
Mugen used on of the falling ponies as a spring board and flipped in the air, slamming his heel down onto the head of another of the nameless Canterlot thugs. Leaving one to shiver in his hooves, utter terror in his eyes. Mugen calmly stepped up to the remaining earth pony, pulling his sword out of the ground on his way.
Mugen stared into the nameless pony's eyes, until he shouted, “BOO!” and said pony fainted. Mugen chuckled as the pony's in the crowd cheered out. Mugen shrugged and began to stroll, whistling his merry tune. He had to hurry, tonight needed to be...Perfect.
….
Celestia's flanks were sore, so very sore. She could sense the human ronin enter her little seikuken bubble almost immediately, but she was always so slow to react as the human continually slapped her flank.
SMACK!
Jin darted through her defense for the thousandth time, “What's the matter Tia? I thought you enjoyed this.”
Celestia growled as Jin danced away only to return immediately, one, two, three, four attempted slaps until Jin finally landed another. SMACK!
Celestia roared, it hurt...so goooood! “Jin, this is utterly unfair, you're using my....thing... to your advantage!”
“Do you believe Discord or Chrysalis wouldn't exploit a weakness? Then why shouldn't I reflect this in your training?” Jin shot snidly, a grin on his face as he danced through Celestia's defenses again.
“It is unfair, because your the ONLY ONE who knows! Not even Lulu knows.” Celestia snapped, she was exhausted, and soaked...in more ways than one. She was utterly frustrated, she'd been in the mood for hours as Jin continued on with his 'training'.
Jin stopped and blinked, “Very well, I won't exploit it any further.” With that the human darted after her, he continually slapped out, and the sun goddess dodged and continued to dodge for what felt like an eternity. Until SMACK!
Jin's slap stung Celestia on her chest, she panted and Jin panted. “Just to let you know Celestia that was a full minute, it took me three days of this to do just that one minute.”
Celestia cocked her colt friend a sly grin.
….
Fuu looked at Pinkie, Pinks stared right back.
“Hey Pinkie...the cakes aren't home...and neither are pumpkin or pou-” Fuu gets cut off as Pinkie tackles her. The party pony shoves Fuu down with a hoof to the chest. Pinkie smiles deviously at the human woman, while slowly tracing a hoof down her chest.
…
Mugen continued to stroll, continued to whistle, continued to think that life was fucking fantastic. Today...tonight...tonight was going to be THE night. He grinned, eyes still closed as he bumped into something feathery.
“Hey watch you're going you stupid...thing?” A feminish-tom boyish voice growled.
Mugen cracked an eye, it was a lion thing with the head of an eagle and wings. Mugen laughed as the top of its head came up to his chest. “What are you gonna do half pint?” Mugen laughed down at the little cat...bird...thingy.
The thing growled deeper, “I AM A GRIFFON. AND YOUR A DEAD THING!” The griffon as she called herself raised a claw...
“MUGENRYUKEN!”
….
Pinkie and Fuu looked up from what they were...doing. “We have been called.”
“So it seems”
….
The griffon was still in the air when Mugen started to fall and he heard it...
“PINKIE PIE RYUKEN!!!!” The familiar party pony gave her version of the uppercut within a minute of him using it.
What the hell...
“FUURYUKEN!!!!” Fuu leaped up next sending the griffon higher into the air. She pointed at Mugen and Pinkie, gesturing them to come up for the final step.
Together both humans and the party mare slammed their fists/hooves under the griffons chine.
“PARTYRYUKEN!!!!”
At the last possible moment, Pinkie shot a party cannon stuffed with vanilla icing all over the griffon.
“Later!” Pinkie and Fuu shouted as they disappeared back where ever it is they came from.
Mugen shrugged as the heap of feathers and creamy, white vanilla landed at his feet. Mugen nudged the griffon with his foot. “Yo griffbabe...I think you got some white stuff ALL OVER YOUR BODY!” Mugen laughed and laughed as he walked off...leaving the white covered Griffon to her...well...to her sniveling.
….
Celestia gritted her teeth...it's been far longer than any of her past tries...twice as long as her last attempt. Jin continued his reign of slaps, and the sun goddess deftly continued to dodge. She was panting heavily, she wouldn't be able to keep this up for long.
A last blow stopped mere inches from Celestia's chest. She growled out in frustration, she had come so close to finally getting it!
“Pass. Take a break Tia, you've cleared stage two in a fraction of the time I did. Impressive.” Jin took a seat and smirked at the look on Celestia's face.
Celestia began to glare at Jin...until an idea came to her mind. “Night is still a long ways off, but now will do.” Her horn began to glow and Jin's eyes grew wide with shock as the aura engulfed him. With a POP! Jin reappeared...in pony form.
Celestia's grin spread from ear to ear, she licked her lips in anticipation, “You should know Jin, for thousands of years I've repressed my sexual urges so often, that they build up and up and up. And when I finally let loose...well...I refer to myself during those times as Molestia. I do not believe you have been acquainted. Well...now we fix that.”
The sun goddess took a step towards the blue earth pony.
I'm fucked. Was Jin's only thought.
….
Mugen fidgeted, uncomfortable with the position he was in. Rarity whined, “Stop moving Mugen, Or your outfit will be utterly dreadful. It...WOULD...BE...THE..WORST..POSSIBLE...THING!” The fashion diva levitated a couch over as she collapsed onto it.
Mugen rolled his eyes, “Come on Raribabe, I need this outfit finished by tonight. Its an emergency. A....fashion emergency.”
Rarity shot up, “Then I must be quick FOR FASHION IS AT STAKE!!!” The white unicorn danced around Mugen, doubling her work speed.
Well at least I know how to motivate her if I need to. Mugen thought to himself suppressing a chuckle.
….
Jin collapsed panting, how in the name of Equestria was she still standing.
Tia grinned at her lover, “Oh come now Jin. It's only been two hours.”
Jin's eyes shot open, “TWO HOURS! Break is over...we were supposed to move onto stage three an hour ago. Change me back.”
Celestia grinned devilishly, “Nope. I'm not finished with you yet.”
Jin rolled his eyes, “Fine I'll stay in pony form, but levitate that boulder onto the smaller one.”
Celestia cocked a curious eye brow at her colt friend. But did as she was instructed. When she turned Jin was on his haunches, hiding something.
“Now stand on the boulder and maintain your balance.” Jin instruced.
Celestia hopped onto the plate like boulder, barely keeping her balance as her legs wobbled.
“I-I don't like this Jin. What are you hiding?” Celestia gulped, she was very, very scared right now.
Jin chuckled, “My sensei called this the 'Beehive from Hell' stage.” With that Jin pulled out a stick and a...bee hive.
Celestia's eyes grew wide... “OH NO NO NO NO NO!” Jin held the hive gently towards her, and began poking holes that faced her. He couldn't help but grimace at the juices that dried and matted his fur around his hooves.
This...Molestia was the biggest pervert he had ever met. But he needed to focus, no matter how good the things she did to him felt...he needed to FOCUS!
Lazily a bee trickled out and flew over to Celestia, then another and another until a small sward buzzed towards Celestia.
“Use tour seikuken to dodge the bees, if you can dodge a bee you can dodge a magical blast of energy” Jin instructed calmly.
Celestia screamed as the bees neared her, “JIIIIIN!!!! TONIGHT YOUR, AS MUGEN WOULD SAY, YOUR DICK IS MINE! I AM GOING TO DESTROOOOY YOU AHAHHAHAHAHAH!” The princess moved around frantically in a blur of motion as the bees descended on her.
….
Mugen held the flowers in his hoof nervously. Tonight was the night. Would AJ suspect anything?
Applejack was the one who answered his knock. They were going to dinner a little early and the sun was just setting beautifully into the back ground, painting the sky a mix of red and orange.
Applejack gasped, “Oh ma gosh Mugen, more flowers for me. I told ya'll last time ah ain't as girly as Rarity. Yah don't need to get me flowers or nothing.”
Mugen blushed and rubbed a hoof across his head, grinning sheepishly.
Applejack's eyes narrowed, “What are ya'll up to tonight Mugen?”
Mugen gulped. Really? Fucking flowers would give him away.
Applejack laughed, punching him in the shoulder with a hoof. “Aw shucks Mugen, ya'll should get a look of yer face. Yah fell fer that one. HAHAHA! Hold on one sec ahm a gonna put these with the others.” The farm mare turned and trotted back inside.
Mugen sighed in relief, okay she wasn't suspicious, he thought so anyway.
Applejack trotted back into view calling over her shoulder, “Ah'll be out later tonight. Don't wait up ya'll. Don't be surprised if ah don't come home.”
The farm mare closed the door behind her, “Well let's get going Mugen, ah got a good feeling bout tonight.”
Mugen cracked his signature smirk, eeyup. Tonight was gonna be a perfect night.
…
Celestia whimpered as Jin applied more cream to the few stings that the bees had given her. She had done surprisingly well in dodging the bees as they swarmed around her. After a half hour straight of dodging and weaving Jin had finally given her the okay to use magic to dispel the swarm.
“I know it seems terrible, but it only gets worse with each stage. Remember I went through this same grueling regime that you are...it took me longer to do each stage though, so I spent much more time on it than you have.”
Celestia groaned, and looked to the sky, wishing the night...would...come. She smiled, “Hey, Jin...my love the sun sets. Look.”
Jin followed her gaze, the scene painted before him was beautiful. He smirked, “That is beautiful, but not nearly as much as what I'm looking at.”
Celestia blinked and turned to see where he was looking at, only to find him staring at her. She smirked, “Oh Jin my lover, you are such a tease. That's why when that sun goes behind the horizon...you...are..all...MINE.”
The Princess of the sun was practically panting at the end of her sentence, she was drenched in sweat from the events of the day but she would be damned if he thought exhaustion would keep him out of her hooves tonight.
Jin merely smirked, “But what if that's how I prefer it.”
….
Mugen laughed as he downed another glass of wine. He still wondered how he managed to hold glass in his hooves, but he wasn't denying it was useful.
Applejack's laughter brought Mugen back to his date. Everything was going smoothly, she was having a blast. He was having a blast. But he still kept his guard up, this night NEEDED to be absolutely, irrevocably perfect.
He looked up at his gorgeous date, she would be his. All his...not matter how long he needed to wait.
2 hours later...
The restaurant was nearly empty except for Applejack and Mugen, both still utterly lost in each others company. The two had barely eaten anything, just their first plate of food. They'd spent the entire time flirting, having fun, just enjoying the other...the same exact level of love from day one.
It was time...Mugen's jaw clenched. He had fought bandits, town guards, an ursa major, hell, he even fought a clone of himself. But what he was about to terrified the shit out of him. He had researched on what to do in Twi's library for weeks now, for such a smart pony, she was quite clueless sometimes.
Mugen got up, “Hey AJ...there's...there's something I need to talk to you about.”
A look of worry spread across his mare friends face, “What...what is it Mugen?” She looked terrified.
Sweat collected on his brow, his cheeks flushed, he stammered, he fell to his knees and managed to grab the key to all this from the saddlebag he wore, he real quick grabbed Applejack's hooves, Might as well just blurt it out.
“AJ...I love you so...” Mugen's breath caught in his throat.
Applejack's eyes grew wide with realization as to what her colt friend was thinking. Before Mugen could even finish, she grabbed the small jewelry box from his hoof.
She opened it and there it was...the wedding band. It was a bracelet with an apple on it, a ruby apple with their names inscribed on it. The band was an intricate weave of gold, with the apple fixed firmly at the top. Just looking at the intricate piece of jewelry, Applejack knew it must have cost every bit he had saved up over the months he'd been here.
She waited with baited breath for the words to roll off his tongue, “Wi-Will you marry me? Will you be my mare?”
“YES! A THOUSAND TIMES YES!” Applejack tackle hugged Mugen, her new fiance. Applejack kissed Mugen smack right on the lips so sweetly, he practically melted in her hooves.
What few patrons in the restaurant were left, the staff included, let a out a big “Dawww” at the scene in the restaurant. The ponies gave the now engaged couple some space as they became lost in the other.
The Next Morning...
Celestia groaned as the letter poofed in front of her, the same as so many others. But one this early? What happened Twilight?
Jin began to stir at the noise, “What's going on?” He raised himself to his haunches still in pony form, still stiff and sore from the night before with his love.
Celestia smiled, “I don't know yet my love. Shall we find out?”
Jin nodded, “Tia...you're still the biggest pervert I've ever met.”
Celestia laughed, and began to read the scroll. Her face turned to one of shock, and then she smiled warmly. Jin looked at her curiously, “What did it say?” He asked cautiously, reaching for the scroll with a hoof climbing over her body.
She closed the scroll and said nonchalantly, “Oh nothing much, Mugen only proposed to Applejack and my ever faithful student wants to host their wedding at the castle in Canterlot.”
Jin's jaw hit the ground hard, “Mugen did what now?”
To be finished in the next chapter...
Ughhhhhh YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!! I hope you enjoyed this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it. It may be a piece of crap, it may not...but I don't care I simply had too much fun with this. Sorry it took awhile, things have been hectic around here lately. Now, I'm going to start on the final chapter and the epilogue, I will post both at the same time!11!!!!1!!!!
Pinkie broke the kiss with Fuu, and gave her human the most seductive smile possible. Fuu's face grew an even deeper shade of red as she continued to stare into Pinkie's eyes. Pinkie chuckled and ran a hoof up Fuu's kimono dragging up to her waist revealing her...undergarments.
Pinkie licked her lips and lowered her snout...Fuu moaned.
“W-we probably should get ready-ready to go Pi- Oh god- the others will be looking for us soon.” Fuu managed to gasp out.
Pinkie sighed, bringing her snout to eye level with her human, “Okie dokie lokie...but we WILL finish up later.” Pinkie flashed that seductive smile of hers.
“D-do you think the others know anything?” Fuu asked nervously still blushing as her kimono draped back down her legs.
Pinkie's smile widened, “They don't have a bucking clue.”
…
Mugen paced in his room, he had been separated from AJ upon arriving at Canterlot. When Twilight had found out about his engagement, she immediately asked the Princess to host the wedding at the castle. The lavender unicorn vehemently refused to allow the wedding of her two best friends be held anywhere else.
The night of the proposal, not even an hour after she had said yes, seemingly all of Pony Ville knew without Mugen or his wife to be saying a word. Even the CMC had charged Mugen, Applebloom screaming with joy when she was told Mugen would be her brother in law.
When Twilight and the rest of the mane six had found Applejack and Mugen, well...it was kind of weird for the human to receive so many tackle hugs and congratulations.
Mugen sighed impatiently, “What is taking so long? It can't take that long to set up a wedding can it?”
“You'd be surprised.”
Mugen whirled around to find...Princess Luna?
“How did you...?” Mugen's question trailed off as he stared speechless at the goddess of the night.
Luna laughed at Mugen, “We are the night and can take the form of the shadows.”
Mugen just shrugged and continued to pace frantically.
“Thou seemst to be...stressed.” Luna observed from her corner in the tight knit room. Mugen hadn't noticed herself sit on her haunches.
At that the Princess smiled a devilish, sly grin.
…
Jin sighed in contentment as he sat back against Celestia's side. The princess cooed, arching her neck she plopped her head right on top of Jin's.
“I'm really surprised that Mugen of all people proposed. It doesn't seem like him.” Celestia commented.
Jin grunted, “I still disbelieve it.”
Celestia chuckled, the feel of her throat vibrating against the back of Ji's head felt...nice.
“Shouldn't you be resting? I mean teleporting us all the way back to Canterlot, must have taken quiet the toll on your strength.” Jin commented absentmindedly.
Jin could feel his mare friend roll her eyes, “I raise the sun on a daily basis, I think I can handle a long range teleportation spell.”
Celestia blinked and a sly, perverse grin engrossed her as an idea formed into her head. “Well...since your so worried about me being tired, you can help me relax.” She breathed huskily, barely above a whisper.
Jin's eyes grew wide as a hoof traced itself down his chest towards his...
“Nope.” Jin slapped the hoof away.
“Let me go for a ride on your disco stick.” Celestia whined.
“Your a pervert. Nope.” Jin slapped the oncoming second hoof.
“Eeyup.”
“Nope.”
“Yes”
“NO”
“YESSSSS”
“NOPE”
“Nope.” Celestia spat out quickly, a smile on her face.
“Yes. Wait wh-” Jin was silenced by a hoof in his mouth.
“TOO LATE YOU SAID YES!” Celestia laughed as she tore clothes off.
“BESIDES INTERSPECIES IS HOT!” The princess couldn't contain her mirth.
…
“I call horse shit.” Mugen said blankly, his voice muffled by the blankets he had buried his face in.
Luna laughed, “I assure you friend Mugen, 'Tis true. Applejack will under going...heat in a month and I thought I should warn you. I've given you the condoms to prevent pregnancy.”
Mugen scowled in the blankets, “Why wouldn't she tell me herself?”
“Because thine future wife was scared of how you would handle it, so she said nothing over thine many dates with her.” Luna replied casually.
Mugen's scowl deepened and he rolled over, and jumped in surprise. Luna had some how snuck right up to the bed and was now climbing inside said bed. The Night goddess laughed a little at Mugen, “I have scared thee, 'tis true. Do not deny it.”
Mugen rolled his eyes, “Is it possible that you stop talking like that?”
“Does this suit you better friend Mugen?”
Mugen nodded, and Luna clamored under the sheets. She wiggled under the covers while Mugen cocked her an eyebrow.
“Aha! There we go! Comfortable.” Luna said, triumph in her voice. She turned to the human who lay on top of the covers of the overly wide bed.
Mugen sighed, “Any particular reason why you're in the bed?”
Luna nodded, “ I am going to teach you a lot of things over the course of the next few hours while your wedding is arranged including: How to be a gentle colt, how to deal with your wife in heat, and how to be properly wed just to name a few. I'm doing this more for my comfort.”
Mugen sighed and rolled over to face the moon goddess, it was really frigging weird. And with that the Princess began to teach Mugen...a great...many...things.
…
“Oh hold still please Applejack. Are you sure you want to do the wedding in human form?” Rarity huffed over her friend, working frantically on the design for the wedding dress she was creating.
Human Applejack rolled her eyes, “Fer the last time Rarity, Mugen refused to do this any other way other than the Equestrian, so ahm doing the wedding in human form...and yer gonna force him by making his tux for a human.”
Rarity rolled her eyes in turn, instead of continuing on the subject she switched the focus, “So....how excited are you're about to get married? Were you surprised at the proposal?”
Applejack grinned, “Ah'm more than excited Rarity, ah'm hot all over. Ah just hope he'll understand mah heats in a month. As fer being surprised...no ah'm not. I knew it was coming, ah just didn't expect it last night.”
Rarity looked at her living mannequin, “Oh that looks simply splendid dear, Mugen will quite...enthralled. But, pray tell, how did you see it coming?” The fashionista bobbed and weaved around her friend, making everything was picture perfect.
Applejack's grin cracked further, “It was dead obvious he was planning it yesterday morning. I could see it in his eyes. Heck, I could even smell it. It's weird I know, but ah ain't arguing.” The farm woman laughed.
Rarity's eyes shot open, “Ohmygoodnesstakeitalloff. IDEAAAAA!” The white unicorn skipped around her friend, practically singing.
Applejack sighed and rolled her eyes, before dropping the third wedding kimono from her body.
….
“HIYA! FUU HOW ARE THOSE TREATS COMING ALONG!! I WANT A REPORT NOW PRIVATE TWINKLE TOES!!!!” Pinkie Pie shouted, the too big, blue helmet bounced around on her head, covering her eyes completely.
Fuu giggled, “They're coming along great sir!”
General Pie shoved a hoof in Fuu's face, the party pony was standing on the counter and practically screamed into the human's face, “IF CELESTIA HAD WANTED YOU TO LIVE SHE WOULD NOT HAVE CREATED MEEEEE!!! NOW GET ON THIS POINT MAGGOT!”
The cakes looked up from their work, “Pinkie, what are you doing sweetie? Those cupcakes need to be cooked. This is going to be a large event.” The spoke in perfect, sagely sinc.
Pinkie spun around on the counter, the weird helmet swiveled around and continued to just...spin...right on top of her head. “AND THAT'S WHY WHENEVER THERE'S MORE THAN ONE ANIMAL IN A PLACE AT ANY GIVEN TIME ITS CALLED A ZOO!” Pinkie leaned down to eyeball Mr.Cake from under her too large helmet, “UNLESS ITS A FARM!”
Fuu giggled, “GENERAL SIR! THESE CUPCAKES NEED TO BE BAKED ASTAT SIR! ORDERS DIRECT FROM CELESTIA!”
Pinkie did a complete one eighty in a split second, “WELL THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST SAY SO MAGGOT! THAT CAKE IS A SPY!” Pinkie pointed at the beginnings of the wedding cake being made for Mugen and Aj. Pinkie pie and Fuu bursted into tears of laughter, while the cakes rolled their eyes and went back to working on the cake.
…
Celestia panted, and Jin panted within her hooves. He had struggled, but the goddess simply proved to magically capable and had simply continued to teleport him underneath her until he gave up and gave the sex crazed goddess what she wanted.
“So * pant * we should probably get back to the important business at hand with this impending wedding.” Celestia managed to wheeze out.
Jin smirked, “I got a better idea, why don't we lay here and do nothing, while every pony else does the work?”
Celestia laughed alongside her colt friend, “Jin, I do believe your idea is much better my lover.”
The alicorn arched her neck so that she curled around Jin. The human rested the back of his head on the princess neck, and the two just nuzzled affectionately, nose to snout.
…
The door to Mugen's private suite opened up without a knock...and a very shocked Big Mac and Braeburn stared at the scene before them.
There was Mugen on the bed with a certain princess of the night pinning him to bed,her plot right on Mugen's groin, an aura of magic surrounded the man's pants and both parties looked at the new comers with an extreme surprise.
“WHY YOU NO GOO-” Braeburn started to scream enraged at catching his cousins fiance in bed with another, but was cut off by a Big Mac hoof to the face.
“Ah get it. Ya'll came to warn Mugen here about AJ's heat next month and wanted to show him how to deal with it. Yeh thought the best way to show him was to force yourself on him and explain what to do in that situation.” Big Mac ended the rather long winded speech, for him anyway, with a rather uncharacteristic smug on his face.
Breaburns jaw hit the ground, Mugen's and Luna's jaw hit the ground.
Luna was the first to try speaking, “How did yo-”
Big Mac cut her off, “Ah just knew. How bout this...instead of you continuing to do what yer doing and risk getting caught in a similar situation, how about I teach my soon to be brother in law about dealing with my sister's heat.”
Mugen pointed at his savior, “I like his idea best.”
Luna shrugged and hopped off, “I wish thee luck with thine attempts at teaching the human to handle...heat. He thinks it'd be best to just...how did he say it...to just roll with it.”
Big Mac smiled as the princess walked by, “Now ya'll get going Braeburn. I got mah work cut out fer me.”
Braeburn turned and trotted off, and the giant, red earth pony trotted slowly into the room with Mugen, closing the door firmly behind him.
….
“ALRIGHT EVERY PONY! ONLY TWO HOURS TO GO!” Twilight shouted, levitating her check list to her face.
“Hey there Twily! So how are the wedding arrangements for your friend Mugen coming along?” A familiar, unmistakeably male voice called to her.
Twilight gasped, “Shining Armor? Oh My Gosh!” The lavender unicorn whirled around and practically tackled her older brother.
The captain of the guard laughed and hugged his sister back. Twilight chuckled herself and took a step back. “ Everything is going great! Rarity is finishing up on Applejack's dress as we speak, Mugen is waiting around just waiting for the ceremony to start and the cakes are busy recreating their famous MMM as a wedding cake.”
Shining Armor trotted alongside his little sister as she continued to prattle on about everything being done to prepare for her friends wedding. The guard captain chuckled as Twilight began to check over her list.
The lavender unicorn stopped mid trot when she glanced over the bottom half of the list, “Wait, we still need some form of entertainment alongside the music.”
“Oh don't worry about that my faithful student, Jin and I will handle that.” Celestia's voice whispered right into Twilight's ear.
The lavender unicorn jumped a full six feet in the air in utter surprise. Said unicorn landed in an undignified heap at her mentors hooves. “Oh Celesta, why did you do that? And what are you and Jin going to do about entertainment?”
Celestia gave a mischievous wink to her disciple, “That is a secret, my dear Twilight Sparkle.” With that, the princess trotted off to who knows where.
“What was that about?” Shining armor spared a quick glance to his sibling.
“I don't know. I honestly don't know.”
…
“Eeyup.” Big Mac responded almost immediately.
“You serious?” Mugen asked for the umpteenth time.
Big Mac sighed, his legendary patience being tested. “Yes Muggen, there's nothing yah can do but going with it. When Applejack gets in heat and she wants ya'll, just give her what she wants and wear one of them fancy condoms.”
Mugen laughed, “Well...do you have any idea how much time is left until the wedding?”
Big Mac shook his head.
“Want to tell me about your first time with Flutterbabe?”
Big Mac blinked, and then he smiled, “Eeyup.”
An hour and a half later...
Mugen fidgeted at the altar, facing the aisle his soon to be wife would be trotting down. And Jin smacked his hand...again.
“Stop it. Be patient.” Jin calmly scolded his friend.
Mugen grumbled under his breath but didn't say a word. The human quickly became lost in his thoughts, what was being married like? Would he live on the farm with the rest of the Apple family? Would he and AJ be able to have kids/foals?
The sudden start of music jolted Mugen from his mental wandering, bringing straight back to the business at hand. He stared down at the end of the aisle.
That's when he first saw her. Mugen's caught in his throat, he was absolutely speechless. That first night he met human Applejack at Sugar Cube Corner, she looked to be a living goddess. If there's anything out there with more beauty than a goddess..well this Applejack surpassed it by far.
Her hair was done up in the most intricate bun he had ever seen, and her kimono flowed around her like a living waterfall, the gems embedded in it were in such strategic locations, it made the whole dress shimmer slightly, making her appear to actually glow. The glow was faint however, and did nothing to obscure the piercing whiteness of the dress. Her face had such a small amount of make up it was jaw dropping. Just a little dabs here and there...Mugen wished he had Twilight's dictionary...he'd find beauty and just glue a picture of the Applejack he was staring at right in there.
An elbow jabbed Mugen in the ribs. The human paid no attention to it, his gaze solely on his soon to be wife. Applejack caught him staring and whipped out a snow white fan, perfectly matching the underlying colors of the kimono, and hid all of her face except her eyes, which danced with Mugens.
Mugen's breath caught in his throat a second time as his fiance took the final steps to the alter.
“...” Mugen stared slack jawed at his woman.
Applejack giggled like a school filly and didn't say a word, instead looking up to Celestia.
The Princess opened her lips to speak but a different voice rang out through the wedding, inciting shock from every pony and every one.
“Well well well Tia, hosting a wedding? And with such strange creatures too.” Discord roiled around, flying slowly out from behind Celestia.
The embodiment of disharmony opened his mouth to speak, but the most terrifying growl ever heard by pony kind reverberated through the now silent hall.
Every pony looked at the source to find...human Applejack.
Human Applejack was giving Discord a look, it was clear that if this look could shoot daggers, or fire lasers made of hate...or something...Discord would be very VERY dead.
AJ stamped her feet and widened her feet, and then the growl became a full blown roar as she shouted, “THE HELL YER GONNA RUIN MAH WEDDING YAH LIMP DICK FREAK!”
With that the farm woman pounced a good ten feet to the monster.
Every pony gasped, some looked away, while many others watched in utter horror at the spectacle before them.
CRACK!
Now, the sounds of Discord whimpering and begging for mercy filled the halls.
“I didn't know he could bend like that.” Pinkie said, lost in the sight before her eyes.
“He can't Pinkie...but AJ made him bend like that.” Twilight flinched as another crack resounded throughout the entire castle.
“Please Stooooppppp.” Cried Discord.
Applejack held up in her hands a very beat up, very broken Discord, who was still begging for mercy.
The farm mare turned human uppercut the spirit of disharmony straight into the air.
“We have been called my sisters.” Mugen said aloud.
“So it would seem.” Pinkie stated blankly.
“Indeed.” Fuu confirmed emotionlessly.
In an instant Mugen appeared right next to his wife to be, still in mid air. With a shout Mugen punched upwards, bouncing Discord further into the air, “MUGENRYUKEN!”
“FUURYUKEN!” Fuu followed Mugen perfectly, landing a well timed punch as the broken creature began to fall.
Pinkie leapt into action, and just as she began to shout, Celestia flashed right in front of her, connecting her hoof with Discords chin she too shouted, “CELESTIARYUKEN!”
Pinkie glared at the princess who sheepishly grinned, “What? It looked like fun.”
Pinkie grinned, “PINKIEPIERYUKEN!”
The group all landed on their feet/hooves and all reached into Pinkie's mane, pulling out...cannons.
“PARTYRYUKEN!!!!”
All at once, the party cannons unleashed a hail of cupcake batter right onto the beaten and broken Discord.
The hall remained silent as every pony was completely unsure of what to do next. Until Applejack roared out, “YOU!” The farm woman pointed a finger menacingly at Celestia, who gulped with fear.
“SKIP TO THE ENDY BIT!” The enraged woman practically screamed.
“Do you Applejac-”
“AH DO! NOW DO MUGEN!”
“Do you Mugen take Applejack to be your lawfully wedded wife?”
“I do.” Mugen wasted no time in responding, the fumes from Applejack's noggin terrified him.
“I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may ki-”
Applejack grabbed Mugen and whirled him down onto his knee, her face shot down and kissed Mugen smack on the lips as his back rested on AJ's knee. The man melted right there.
Applejack broke apart the kiss with a growl and no pony dared do anything lest they incurred her wrath. But instead of letting Mugen go, the human woman slung her husband on her back.
“OUTTA MAH WAY!!! HE'S MINE!” The woman practically sprinted through the crowd, despite her kimono which strangely was in absolute perfect condition.
The crowd parted and Applejack rammed to the outside and immediately started off in the direction of the suite given to the both of them.
“Mugen...ya'll said angry sex was supposed to be good right? For yer sake, ah hope yer right.”
Mugen gulped...and then gave himself a congratulatory fist pump.
…
The end
(Except for the Epilogue)
Sorry for the wait, but I wanted to upload this with the epilogue. I hope you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Well catch you guys later...oh by the way..I have what I think is anyway...an amazing idea with an OC I'll be writing it all in one go and uploaing a few chapters a day when it's all finished up.
Mugen smiled in the dark, his hug around his wife...and his children tightened.
“Mugen...are ya'll awake?” Applejack whispered in the dark in his ear.
Mugen kissed her behind the ear, “Yea”
He could feel AJ smile in his grip, “Ah think AppleMac will wake up soon. And he wakes up ya'll know fer a fact her big sister'll be right there.” The woman whispered groggily.
Sure enough, their colt began to stir, “Good morning Papa, mama.” The colt that had spoken wormed his way out of his mothers embrace, the little tyke had a coat exactly like his mothers, and her eyes to boot. His mane and tail however, were the exact brown of Mugen's.
And even further predictably, the shout a very excited ten year old girl shattered the silence, “MAMMAAA! PAAAPPPAAAAA!!! LITTLE APPLEMAC!” The young girl shot out of her mothers embrace and tackled her little brother.
The two children laughed in a heap on top of their parents giggling the whole way. The girl's auburn hair was disheveled from wrestling, her toothy grin showed through her cropped bangs. The girls brown eyes shown in the dim early light of morning as she continued to wrestle her beloved little brother.
The two children, colt and girl continued to wrestle, while both parents watch in bliss. With a happy sigh Applejack held her amulet and turned back into a pony.
“Alright yah two, get yerselves ready fer school. Git!” Applejack stamped a hoof sternly. Both children let out groans but trudged off to prepare for school.
“Remember Mugen...ya'll have to stop by the Pie's to grab the cake for AppleMac's seventh birthday tomorrow.” The farm mare said over her shoulder to her husband as she chased after the kids.
Mugen groaned, “Even though its been years since they married its still hard to say that both sides of the Pies are...misses. Mrs.Pie and Mrs.Pie. That's so weird.” Mugen chuckled as he lightened his own mood.
Applejack rolled her eyes, “And Fuu and Pinkie are still out friends. Now hop to it, ah got our foals to see to.”
Mugen smiled and clamored out his bead, ready to tackle another day.
….
“SCREAMING GRIFFONS!” Pinkie fired her party cannon at the ground as she jumped, the blast sending her to the roof of Sugar Cube Corner.
Fuu laughed, still on the ground, “Don't you think it'd be easier to use a ladder honey?”
Pinkie laughed down at her wife, “But that would to be easy MAGGOT! I AM PIIINKIE CUPCAKE! I WILL EAT YOU!” The party mare's grin extended to a creepy level as she began to decorate the front of SCC from the roof.
Fuu rolled her eyes as a very familiar voice cleared his throat, “Excuse Mrs.Pie, I'm here for the cake we ordered.”
Fuu spun around to face Mugen, “It's right over he-”
Mugen cut her off, “I was talking to other Mrs.Pie.” Mugen laughed as his friend began to fume.
Pinkie laughed from the roof, her helmet wobbling around as she moved, still obscuring her eyes, “OOO you little joker you MAGGOT! DROP AND GIVE ME TWENTY! IF CELESTIA HAD WANTED YOU TO LIVE SHE WOULD NOT HAVE CREATED ME! You're cake's inside sweety, the Cakes have your cake..hahahahahahahahaha”
Mugen chuckled as Fuu continued to pepper his back with blows, which he easily ignored as he stepped into Sugar Cube Corner.
…
Celestia moaned and grunted, sweat pooled together on her brow as she bit her lip. Even that didn't stop another moan of absolute pleasure from ripping through her. “Oh JIIIIIN!” The Princess shouted...as her husbands fingers continued to massage her neck.
“You really need to relax more often love. The stress is really getting to you.” Jin said calmly, continuing to roll his wife's shoulders with circular motions of his fingers and hands.
The Princess began to pant, “Oh sweet Equestria Jin take me now!”
“Even after eight years of marriage and eleven years of love you are still the biggest perv I have ever met. You have a meeting with the council for a debate on taxes in less than an hour.” Jin rolled his eyes as he continued to massage his wife.
Celestia pouted as the truth sank in, all of it. She still groaned and shivered at his touch, and that sent the spark of an idea through her whole being.
“I've got it! Hide under the table in front of me at the meeting and-” Jin cut her off by digging his fingers deeper into her tensed muscles sending another wave of pleasure through her that made her groan.
“Nope.avi” Jin said calmly, continuing to massage her.
“Yes.” The princess of the sun shot out.
“No.”
“Yes”
“NO!”
“YES!”
“NO!”
“NO!”
“YES!” Jin blinked immediately realizin his mistake.
Celestia's magic surrounded him as she shouted, “TOO LATE YOU SAID YES! SCORE!”
…
Mugen sighed in utter contentment, he hugged his wife closer to him. She squeezed back...which hurt much more considering they were in pony form and she was a lot stronger than him.
Mugen glanced down the hill to the group of foals/children playing below. AppleMac and AppleBlossom chased two younger foals around in a game of what they called “Team Tag”
“They're so adorable aren't they you guys.” Fluttershy managed to squeak out. Big Mac hugged his own wife closer to his body. “Eeyup.”
Mugen laughed, “That's still the most you say isn't it big guy?”
Big Mac chuckled and simply drawled, “Eeyup.”
“DADDY DADDY! Do you and Uncle Muggy and auntie AJ and momma want to play team tag with us?” Cried the excited pegasus filly with a cream coat...and an apple red mane. Her ice blue eyes bulged out in hope.
“Eeyup!” Cried the exact replica of Big Mac, his father.
Both sets of parents laughed at where the colts small vocabulary came from. And with a nod, all four stood up and dove into the midst of the game with their children, laughing in utter bliss the whole way.
The End...
Thank you to those who stuck with my cruddy story the whole way through. I did however, really enjoy writing this piece and have already begun on another work of mine. But...I am going to China as a part of an exchange program THIS sunday...and won't be back until July. I'll try to upload the new idea if I can but I can't say for certain. Also..sorry about the smallish epilogue but hey...I got the general idea of what happened after the wedding out there! Fluttershy Guy peacing out.
Sorry this took awhile but yesterday I got a....NEW PUPPEH.....i puked rainbows and couldnt stop saying “DAWWWWW”. Okay proceed to enjoy. This was orginally going to part of a MASSIVE chapter, but I decided, more for my sanity's sake, that it deserved a chapter of its own.
“Kiss.My.Ass” Mugen laughed, continuing to shake his ass a mere foot in front of Princess Celestia's face. The whole group save for Mugen and Celestia had a look of sheer terror plastered upon their faces, unable to comprehend the situation.
“For the last time Mugen, I am not going to kiss your ass.” The Princess of the sun rather calmly, and even more strange, she had a twinkle of amusement in her eye.
Mugen grunted and dropped his rear end and turned to face the Princess, “Fine. That's not the favor I really wanted any way.” The human leaned in close to the princess, a fraction of an inch now separated the twos faces from colliding.
“Jin and I are going to finish the fight that we started and I want to temporarily enchant our blades so we don't cut each other to ribbons....and we're gonna turn it into a grand battle for all of Pony Ville to see who the greatest swordsman in Japan is. Also, I need to talk to you in private sometime before you go.”
Mugen looked straight into the Princess's eyes, not even blinking. Comeoncomeonecomeoncomeon. Mugen prayed and prayed in his head for the Princess to agree, while the Princess continued to stare blankly at him.
“Very well, I must admit, I am heavily interested in seeing this battle, especially since its non-lethal.” Mugen jumped pumping his fist into the air, his fist a mere inch from punching Celestia with an uppercut.
Mugen excitedly clamored to where he sat a few minutes before, a string of happy cusses streaming from his mouth. The moment he sat down, a very familiar hand slapped him upside his head at the exact same moment a certain hoof did.
“What in the hay is wrong with you Mugen!?!!” Applejack nearly shouted, at the exact same time, Fuu screamed into Mugens ear, “Mugen you idiot! Why would you even attempt that stunt!?!?!!”
Applejack gave the human girl the most hate, dagger and meanness filled stare the farm pony could possibly muster up. “And who in the hay do you think you are going around to trying to yell at MAH friends Mugen. Ah don't take kindly to that, thank yeh very much.” Fuu's jaw dropped, and she returned the death stare in turn, just as she was about to issue her rebutta, Celestia waved a hoof, a knowing smile on her face as she looked between Mugen and Aj, “Now, now my little ponies. Fuu and Jin are guests, treat them with respect. And Mugen.... you really should learn some decency.”
Mugen grinned sheepishly, but Aj continued to give her perceived rival the AppleFamilyPatentedDeathStare. Fuu, in turn just huffed and raised her head to face the opposite direction of the farm mare.
“Now where are we going to have this....showdown of a life time?” Celestia's voice range out.
….
Every Pony in Pony Ville had gathered around the town square, the entire pavilion had been cleared out on orders of the Princess for this duel.
Jin stood about fifteen feet away from Mugen, the two stared each other down silently, waiting for Celestia to start the bout.
Celestia trotted forward from her place amongst the crowd, “Attention Pony Ville, I hereby sanction this friendly duel between two friends.” Her horn began to glow and the moment it did Jin whipped his sword from its sheath, sending a small gust of wind out at the speed of which he drew. Mugen smirked and drew his sword and immediately both swords began to glow as a golden-yellow sheen covered both swords entirely, including the hilts and handles.
Celestia raised a hoof, every pony took in a baited breath, wondering what they were about to witness, “BEGIN!”
In a split second, Mugen and Jin immediately rushed forward, Mugen swinging his sword from side to side a look of sheer adrenaline pumped rage on his face. Jin, following Mugens lead, lightly stepped forward his sword held in front of him, a look of utter calm painting his face.
A mere four feet away Mugen jumped into the air and brought his sword down straight at Jin with his full strength behind the swing. Jin's own blade darted into the air clashing with Mugen's, a shower of sparks flew out.
As Mugen landed, each man swung their blades with a speed unseen, their blades whipping back and forth and around one another. Mugen hopped back when he saw the chance and readied himself for another assault.
But Jin didn't let him back on the offensive and instead darted forward, “Mugen...it has been a long time since we've clashed. Allow me to show you something I've managed to teach my self.”
Mugen struck out at Jin as the man got closer but....Jin merely side stepped leaving an....after image. Mugen's eyes grew wide as Jin's blade came down, Mugen's clashed against it, just barely keeping it from touching his taut skin.
Mugen grinned, “ Haha. That's a neat ass trick Jin. That'll make this all the more fn.” And as he finished Mugen slammed forward knocking the ronin back a little.
Mugen, wasting no time, lunged forward and slammed his blade into Jin's and began to push. The vagrant and ronin, slid along the ground of the town square as Mugen pushed and pushed against Jin. Mugen waited for it... comeonJinComeOnJin I know you want to.. DO IT!
Jin let his block go and vanished around to the side to strike at Mugen.
YES!
Mugen slammed his foot into Jin's side. Jin's face became plastered with shock as spittle flew from his mouth. Mugen immediately followed through with another strike from his sword, but Jin managed to raise his defense in time to block.
Mugen flipped back, again and again. A good fifteen feet between the vagrant and the ronin. Jin glared at Mugen, his face still one of complete calm.
Mugen darted forward again and again, a few feet from Jin he jumped into the air. Jin prepared himself to strike out but in mid air Mugen....turned his back to Jin.
Jin didn't know what to think. Here Mugen was with HIS BACK TURNED to him...and in mid air no doubt, where he wouldn't be able to dodge effectively, what is he doing? The thoughts raced through Jin...until a blur of motion off to Mugen's right.
Jin's blade caught the incoming strike from Mugens....SHEATH!?!! Jin realized all too late that Mugen's sheath was missing from his back and had lashed out at Jin...Mugen twisted in air and....slammed his sword down into nothingness as Jin barely managed to scramble away from the surprise strategy.
Jin and Mugen stared each other down... Mugen stepped to the side...Jin stepped to the side. The two began to circle, neither of them closing any distance.
“Come on Mugen! Ah know you can put the Apple Family hurtin' on this here Jin feller! Come On MUGEN!” Applejack cheered from her spot in the crowd.
Mugen smirked... and dashed forward. Jin readied his blade and surged forward to meet Mugen, his body moving so fast he left a trail of after images as he charged forward.
Mugen slammed his blade into the ground and heaved himself into the air forward at Jin. As they closed the distance Mugen flipped around and kicked at Jin with one foot. Jin blocked the kick and Mugen twisted around to kick Jin square in the top of head Mugen grinned a little...only for a fist to dig its way into Mugen's stomach.
Mugen let out a gasp as spittle flung from his mouth. He scrambled back and Jin did the same clutching his head with a hand.
Mugen glared at Jin, and Jin glared at Mugen. The two surged forward again their sword clashes sending sparks flying and gusts of wind to rock the town square.
The very familiar voices of the CMC rose above the noise of the clashing steel and the roar of the wind, “COME ON MUGEN!MUGEN!MUGEN!MUGEN!” The chant picked on as most of Pony Ville began to recite it, every pony pumped their hooves into the air as Mugens and Jins blades clashed again and again. Mugen danced away from Jin, Jin followed up with a slash of his sword. Mugen defected the blow and closed the distance between the two. Mugens blade slammed into Jins and the faces of both men were separated by a mere foot of space between them. Mugen grinned at Jin, and Jin let a small smile grace his lips as the two distanced themselves from one another for the umpteenth time.
…
2 hours later...
Mugen panted off to one side of the square, the CMC and all of his friends still urging Mugen on. His shirt was torn and he covered in bruises where Jin had managed to get him.
Likewise, Jin stood on the other end of the pavilion, he too panted and his robe had been torn a little. His body was covered in scratches and bruises from when Mugen had managed to land blows on him.
Even though it had been two hours since the start of the bout, the ponies drank in the duel with their eyes. Their voices, although heavily sore and raw, continued to ring out as they cheered.
Mugen lifted his blade up, his arm straight off to the side. Jin held his sword out with both hands. The two squinted at one another...they surged forward.
The distance between them closed...
Mugen raised his sword as he jumped at Jin...
Jin raised his blade as Mugen began to fall at him...
and with a resounding THUNK! Both men hit each other with direct hits to the head. Jin had swung his blade and it collided with Mugens thick skull from the side and Mugen's blade hit Jin square in the top of his head.
Both men fell to the ground, their bodies sending up a cloud of dust as they collapsed onto the ground.
Every pony surged forward to see if the two humans were okay.
Applejack managed to fight her way to front of the ground a look of sheer panic in her eyes, but when her sights fell on the rising and falling of Mugens chest as he breathed, a smile came to her lips as she looked over... HER human.
She glared daggers at Fuu who stared down at both humans with disinterest.
The CMC trotted forward and began to poke at Mugen with their hooves, “Hahaha! Mugens fun to play with even when he's blacked out.”
Every pony laughed as the doctor ponies inspected the two out cold humans.
Celestia looked at both humans and raised a hoof in the air, she shouted for all to hear, “TIE!”
….
Celestia raised her as Mugen began to stir. When the human opened his eyes he was looking straight in her eyes. He began to croak, “Who-” Celestia raised a hoof cutting Mugen off, “It was a tie, both of you knocked the other out. But...earlier you said you wanted a...private audience.” She smirked at the human, knowing all to well what he wanted to tell her...considering Applejack had come to her earlier with the same “dilemma”.
Mugen blushed profusely and raised a hand to scratch it, looking for the right words to what he wanted to say. Mugen thought until Celestia spoke up, “You've developed feelings for Applejack and don't know how to follow up considering shes a different species. Also you've been having embarrassing dreams of a sexual nature with a human Applejack.”
Mugen's eyes grew wide with shock, “How did-” “Magic” Celestia cut him off with a wink. Mugen glared at her and she spoke completely ignoring it, “Ask her out anyway. SPECIES BE DAMNED! Love blossoms where it wants to Mugen, not where it makes sense. I'll call you up to Canterlot in a while with a... surprise. “
Mugen began to ask a question but magic held his lips shut, Celestia trotted over to the door of....Rarity's boutique? “Oh by the way, you're done with loyalty and will be staying with Rarity learning generosity. I took the liberty of writing a friendship report for you while you were kncoked out.” Celestia winked at the human. “Chow”
What the FUCK just happened?!? The thought burned into Mugen's head.
To Be Continued......
