The Element of Honor!
Apology!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWe went back to Ponyville by my request, I told the girls that they should stay behind but they wanted to come. The ride back home was uneventful and the girls just talked, well except Rainbow Dash. She just sat there staring out into the distance, which is also what I was doing. I was thinking about what would the future bring, why did that incedent happen and how can I stop it? It was still weighing on my mind, heavily. Who did it?
'You need to stop thinking about it.' Iris said.'It was because you left when that happened, just stay and it wont happen.'
'Your right but I can't help to wonder if it's that easy.' I thought, she understood where I was coming from. I looked at the girls and saw how happy they were, well except the one sulking for reasons I don't know. Iris left the hotseat and Dexter took it.
'You okay there buddy?' He asked, it seemed as if he wasn't being a dick for a while. Though I'm not surprised because if I saw someone go through that I wouldn't have it in me to piss them off. 'You saw somethings that you shouldn't have back there. I don't think your mind will be stable for long if you keep on the subject.' His tone was kind, he was telling me nicely that if I don't stop thinking about it I'll most likely go insane.
I didn't care, it was a human that did this, a human did those horrible things. How could someone do that? I don't even think the most fucked up minds on Earth won't be able to stomach that, let alone be the perpratrator. At the same time as wanting to know who did it I also didn't want to know, all I wanted was for this not to happen.
While I wasn't paying attention, Dexter noticed something. 'I think Dash is upset with you.' This got me to stop thinking about that.
'Yeah , but I don't know why. That's what I need to know.' I thought it was pretty obvious that Dash was angry at me, it just wasn't obvious why.
Dexter let out an 'Ooh' of realisation. After that he let out a sigh of dissapointment. 'So why can't I tell him?' I assumed that he was talking to Iris because Lust doesn't give any good information except about sex and if it was Lust then I'm glad he can't tell me. 'Iris told me you have to find out yourself.'
I would have facepalmed but I was in company. 'You are me you pleb.'
'I'm technically not you, but your right.' I was about to question what he meant by that, but I decided it would be better if I asked later in the HQ where we had as much time as we wanted. 'She said it doesn't matter if you are the same it's just not her personality that will find it out.'
'Wow what a bitch...' I thought, then I realised that she could hear my thoughts, '...y attitude. So glad I met you.' I assumed that worked because if it didn't then I'd be fucked, not literally either.
'We'll be at Ponyville in exactly 1 minute 23 seconds.' Dexter told me, how the fuck do they do that I can't tell stuff like that for shit.
'So how exactly did you come to be Dexter...like how are you even...you're not like the other two. How' I thought to Dexter. I could tell he was different he was more like a full personality then one of the peices of it. 'Never mind.' I just gave up, I tried not to think much because of their ability to hear my thoughts that weren't directed at them.
When we landed in Ponyville there was a thump that almost caused me to lose balance. I managed to keep myself upright and a jumped over the railing while all the the girls gave there goodbyes.
I was about to walk around Ponyville for a while but I realised that I had nowhere to go. I couldn't go back to Lyra's yet but I also didn't have anything specific I wanted to do except go home and sleep. 'Go aplogise to Dash.'
'For what?' All that Dexter gave me was a silence, I grit my teeth I thought I could get the answer out of him that way but that was probably why; I thought.
I began the long journey to Dash's house, I couldn't help but try to think why she was pissed, however in the end I still didn't have an answer. Then memories span through my head it went from some childhood memories to the most recent ones. My stomach was beggining to churn. None of voices tried to even help, they were going through the same thing as me so I'm not surprised.
I was now nearing Dash's cloud mansion, it was amazing. It was something straight out of a fairy tale, although this whole world was a fairy tale for children. It was too innocent for me personally. "D-" I cut myself off before I called her 'Dash'. "Rainbow Dash! You up there?" I shouted up to the flouting house.
Rainbow Dash stuck her head over the edge and groaned. "What are you here for?" Her tone was less then please but it still sounded like she was pushing to say it.
"Sorry, for what-" I cut myself off so I didn't say 'whatever' "I did." The slight pause almost broke the sentence but it managed to still sound okay.
Dash pumped her wings as she jumped, I thought she was about to fly away but she just hovered down taking a long loop around me. She still had a solemn look on her face and me being here was causing it. "Yeah you're sorry, do you even know what you should be sorry about?"
My personality causes trouble even for myself. "One of two things; I offended you or the fact that I didn't click 'clear all' before I went missing?" She scowled. "And I guessing it wasn't the latter." That was all I could say, if I had made the conversation serious I probably would have cracked instantly and lost all confidence.
"So you don't know? I didn't think you would be this clueless." She spoke tears adorning her eyes. She turned away and sat down. I didn't dare to see if she still was crying so I just stayed where I was. "Will you listen to what I have to say?"
"Yeah, I guess I will." I sat down where I was and got ready to listen. The sun was covered with a cloud. 'Perfect timing' Then I realised in this world pegasus put clouds in the sky. 'Did she set this up. No she was with the girls all day.' I looked at her sat on her haunches, it was weird this was not something you would see everyday or anyday back where I'm from.
"I like someone, that someone is different." She still was looking into the sky far away. "The ponies that I have asked say I shouldn't go for it because it might not be what they're into." She stayed silent for a moment probably thinking of what to say next. "But I can't just staright ask them the question or it might be awkward."
"I think I know who you're talking about." I couldn't stop myself from saying, but that wasn't anything different. Rainbow Dash flinched. "It's not who I think it is, is it?" I asked vaguely but I knew exactly who it was, however I wanted confirmation before I helped. 'Soon I will be playing matchmaker.' I made an evil chuckle go through my head. Mwhauhahahaha it went. I was so close to lol'ing out loud. If that's possible.
Rainbow Dash was now blushing and squirming about. I was now in front of her, I have no clue how I got there but I was now here. 'Do you have no shame?' Oh how I didn't right now was my moment to shine, the internet troll was coming out. 'Since when were you the voice of justace?' I was grinning like a fool, or a monster depending on which side you was on.
"You know?" Dash asked her voice was now as timid as a butterfly near a human. "Who?" Her voice was small and broken, but nevertheless she still testing my detective skills.
"It is..." Time for a dramitic pause, a still image and a long distance between the beggining and end of the sentence. Once I got bored of that I immeadiatly blurted it out. "It's Fluttershy isn't it?" I turned around away from her, I had it right but I needed a moment to celebrate internally without her knowing. "Just ask her out. She seems kind enough to forgive you if you are not right. If you were just say you got drunk." I was probably being immorally wrong right now by telling her to act as though she were drunk but I couldn't care less.
When I turned around Rainbow Dash wasn't in the spot she was just in, she had moved. I looked around but she was probably back in the cloud. When I looked up all I saw was a liquified rainbow falling down I was just about to say 'fuck' but didn't have enough time to do it before I was now the only rainbow coloured human.
The walk home was long and the talk with Lyra was short, it was time to head back to the guys in the hq for a nice rest.
