'Shit. Of all the-' his mental rant was stopped early by something nosing him. He looked up and saw a fairly beautiful (for a pony) pony looking at him. He became painfully aware that he was probably looking at the prettiest mutant creature the Mojave wasteland had to offer. She literally glowed. Whether that was due to radiation or not, he had yet to tell. After a few moments of staring at each other, he shook his head and said,

"I hate to ask this, but do you use your unfathomable beauty to capture prey?"

If someone decides to drop a pin right then, you would definitely have been able to hear it. The contingent of guards looked like they just caught Marcus in bed with their sisters. Luna and twilight looked ready to banish him to the moon and the sun, respectively. Celestia kept her small smile but you could see a bit of anger. And suddenly, she started laughing.

"HAHAHAHA! Oh, my. That is amazingly funny. No, no I don't. Actually, that depends on your point of view. I don't use it to eat anypony, but I do use it to sleep with every pony in the castle, though.” everyone, not including Marcus, blushed. Luna looked away, her blue coat making the blush extremely prominent.

"Well I guess that answers that question, now, next." shining armor blinked and pointed his spear at Marcus.

"What were you doing in princess twilights room? Answer carefully, because she's also my sister!" Marcus was up and stretching by then.

"I hate to tell you this, but I have no idea. I fell asleep at the place I call home, wolfhorn ranch, and then- this." he gestured at the entirety of the building. " By the way, I would guess that I’m not in the Mojave wasteland anymore, am I?"

Celestia shook her head, "no, I have never heard of that place. I assume that it's far away?" he shrugged

"I have no idea. I only remember a few months."

Twilight spoke up, "really? You look full grown."

"As far as I can tell, I got two holes put in my head over something called the platinum chip."

"What’s that?"

"A master key of sorts. It was used to activate a army of security robots, and, with their help, I was able to win new Vegas’s freedom."

"Where is this, new Vegas? I thought you came from the Mojave wasteland?"

"I do but-"

"This is amazing! An entirely new land! I have to get notes!" she spun around and, in a flashing glimpse, gave Marcus full view of her lady parts.

'POOMF!'

Awkward silence and everyone staring at Marcus again. Twilights eyes, moved from his wings, to his horn. She slowly opened her mouth, and quivering, said,

"Your an alicorn?"

"Um, I guess so?" he shrugged. He was about to say something else, presumably that he wasn't always one, but a pony ran through what he assumed to be the front door, screaming,

"Timber wolves! Timber wolves everywhere!"

now, Marcus had never had the pleasure of encountering timberwolves. he didn't even know what they were. so it came as a real shock, not only to the princesses who just encountered a living male of their race, but to everyone else in the room, when he turned and ran out of the room.

"where's he..."

"he can't seriously be..."

"we gotta stop him!"
