WAY Out of place
Chapter 24: Standing tall
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI stood outside the apartment complex by the jeep, just waiting for when I'd wake up. "This is officially a pretty shitty dream."
The rest of the men came out without their masks on, each one with blank expressions. They came to the jeep, heads low. One of them pat my shoulder and they piled into the jeep. I simply ignored them and closed my eyes waiting. I just wanted to wake up and forget this happened. A trio of ambulances were parked nearby, one had the body of sergeant Sanderson, the others had the girls, some sitting out side a few inside. The back door of one was open and I could see two of them sitting on the edge wrapped in blankets. One with long rainbow colored hair, the other with long blonde hair tied in a ponytail near the end.
I looked in their direction to see them wave. I figured I might as well see how they were doing since I just scarred the whole of them for the rest of their lives. So I made my way toward them, arms crossed.
"Everyone doing alright?" I asked.
"Uh, yeah...Flutters might need some work though. That was uh...that was rough." The rainbow haired one said looking over her shoulder. The girl with the long pink hair sat atop the gurney talking to a paramedic.
"Flutters?" It finally hit me how they were familiar and I felt stupid for not realizing it earlier. But something began to bother me. If it was Twilight and her friends, who was the woman with blue hair?
Princess Luna sat inside the other ambulance, pondering the strange pendant he had given her. What was it's purpose? If they were a military force like the guards then why would they need this? And most of all, why was his name printed upon it? She held the metal necklace in the palm of her recently acquired hand reading the information listed.

She presumed it to be a form of identification. But why he would give it to her eluded her. Did he know, or was it simply a means for her to remember him? It was strange the way he acted. She stared at the metal pendant as though it would give her all the answers. But it didn't, it couldn't. She had only met him that morning and displayed a rather lack luster side of his personality, yet before her he displayed a sense of honor and valor. Before her very eyes not long ago she had witnessed the spilling of blood not once but twice and that had not come close to phasing her, yet this seemed to leave an impact she could yet to register. She decided she may need time and that it had been enough. She ended the dream, everything fading to a white.
My eyes eased open slowly, taking in the sun's morning rays as they poured through the window. I looked around as my eyes adjusted, making sure it was the real thing. I knew it certainly was when I turned my head to see Twilight in all her pony cuteness, nuzzling my neck, a small dribble of saliva coming from her mouth. I smiled slightly, happy to be back. I somewhat hoped she wouldn't be in the dream, but unfortunately she was. I never did get to talk to her before I woke. Maybe I guess I don't have to get something done, just wait until I do eventually wake up. I pushed all remembrance of it out of my mind and brought my focus back to the real world. Well...sort of.
I figured I might as well try to plan out what I was going to do today. Rarity's maybe? I still wasn't too keen on standing still for hours on end, but I should give Kian just one more day until I start dragging him along to things. Wouldn't want to leave him out of all the animal fun at Fluttershy's. With that figured out I went back to enjoying my morning. I raised one of my hooves and rested it on her side, gently rubbing along it. I was right next to her, I had been right next to her the entire time. That's all I ever wanted from her, to be with her. My head eased down and I set it above hers. If I could stay like this for the rest of my life, I would. I would stay perfectly still if it meant I would always be on this position. With her, together, happy.
Twi stirred slightly and mumbled a few inaudible things before returning to her quiet, motionless state. Her mane was a bit ruffled and hung down her face, covering some of an eye. I began to remember the events of last night and realized my hoof was still a bit sticky. I lifted my head from above hers and looked down between us to see the mess I got her to make, wet stickyness covering quite a bit of her hindquarters. She stirred more from my movement and her eyes slowly opened, her beautiful purple gleaming from the light. A soft smile made it's way across her face. "Morning." She whispered happily, burying her face into my chest.
"Morning." I sighed in reply.
"About time to get up?" She asked.
"Sure, we should probably take a shower quick though."
"How come?" she asked.
"Poor choice of words, Twilight." I said looking down between us.
She began to blush at the sight of the small puddle between her legs.
"Don't worry, I'll cover our retreat." I said sympathetically.
She smiled softly and we leaned in for a quick kiss before rolling out of bed. I took a moment to stretch quickly, pleasuring myself with some of the few moments I'll be able to move around. I twisted my neck while Twi waited patiently at the top of the stairs. I noticed Spike's basket was empty, so he'd be downstairs doing who-knows-what. I followed her down the steps closely, her stopping to peek around the corner at the bottom. Spike was in the kitchen with a small bowl of gems, chewing thoughtfully on a blue gem, facing in the opposite direction.
"Alright let's move." She whispered as she began to sneak through the main library toward the bathroom. The space felt like miles as we walked through it slowly, caution set high. She stopped dead as a floor board creaked under her and our attention snapped to Spike who hadn't noticed it. We breathed a sigh of relief and kept moving. When we finally did make it to the bathroom I eased the door openly quietly and moved out of the way for Twilight.
Suddenly, behind her another door swung open as Kian walked out. His mane in a serious bed head. He looked over to us and yawned. "Morning. How you guys d- what the fuck?!"
