Twilight woke up. Her eyes fluttered open, and she yawned. She looked around at her room. The crystals were glimmering with the sun rising out from a nearby window. Certainly, it wasn't the best place to sleep. The light that bounces of the crystals always woke her up. But to her, it didn't matter. A new day was here, and there were new things to learn. She heard a loud, but cute snore.
Twilight faced the direction of the sound. Spike was sleeping. And he wasn't going to wake up soon. Twilight smiled. He always felt like a little brother to her, and it was always adorable the way he sleeps. She got out of her bed, trying her best not to wake Spike. He deserves rest sometimes.
Twilight walked down her castles long, curving stairs. If it was anything she disliked was the size of the castle. To big for her. It bugged her most of the time, but today, she didn't pay any heed to it.
Today was a special day.
What was so special? For once in a while, Twilight had no princess duties to do. All her friends were free, and just like old times, it will just be her and her friends together eating lunch. No big crisis to fix, no giant monster to ruin Ponyville. It was perfect.
Of course, she still needed to do some chores before. The lunch wasn't even near. She had time. Time for once was on her side.
Twilight finished her chores once Spike awoken. He came down the stairs rubbing his eyes, yawing slightly.
"What's for breakfast?" He asked once he saw Twilight.
Twilight rolled her eyes. "Its nearly noon. You slept in all morning." She said.
"What?! I did!? Aw, I really wanted pancakes today!" Spike said. He folded his arms and did his "grouchy" face.
Twilight laughed at her assistant. "Don't get your tail in a knot. Were still having lunch today with the other girls."
Spikes face instantly lit up. "Oh yeah! I nearly forgot about that! Well, I'm happy I did miss breakfeast! Now I got room for lunch!" Spike fist pumped in the air. Twilight just smiled and rolled her eyes.
"Well then Mr. Hungry, are you ready than?" Twilight jokingly said. Spike nodded. "Good. Because it's starting soon." Right on cue, there was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it!" Spike said after he ran to the door. To his surprise, it wasn't any of the girls.
"Is princess Twilight here?! We need her help!" A stallion quickly said. Twilight, upon hearing her name, came up to the door.
"What is it that you need help with?" She asked calmly to try calming the stallion down. He was a tall black coated unicorn with silvery white short mane, his cutie mark was a timer. The thing that stood out the most was his bright golden eyes.
"There's trouble in the market! Please! Come with me!" He said. He was still quickly talking, fear still in his voice.
Twilight's heart instantly fell. It wasn't because of fear, no. It was because she was hopping this wouldn't happen. But, as a princess, she can never not help anypony.
"Of course. Spike, you stay here, okay?" Twilight once again was calm. Spike nodded. "Go ahead and show me were this problem is, but quickly. I've never seen you around here. What is you name?"
The stallion quickly said. "My name is Temps Moe, weird name I know, but please! We have other things to worry about!" Temps turned around and started speed walking towards the market. Twilight flowed Temps, hoping whatever this problem was, was nothing to serious. The market wasn't to far away, it only took about a minute to get there.
But, nothing was here. It was just like any other day in the market.
Twilight was confused. Temps said something was wrong, but nothing out of the ordinary was happening. She scanned the market once more, still, there was nothing.
"Are you sure it's here?" Twilight asked Temps Moe.
"Yes Yes! Come! Were not there yet!" Temps said. He started walking once more. But not more into the market, but a dark alley way. Twilight wasn't an idiot. Quickly she stepped back.
"What exactly is this problem?" Twilight asked, trying her best to hide the fear in her voice. Temps stopped and looked back at her.
A slight smile showed on his face for just a moment, but than he frowned. "Its to hard to explain, just please, follow me." He said, calmer than he was talking earilier. Twilighit was still not comfortable.
"Into that dark alley way? Please, just tell me." She asked. Temps quikly got annoyed. "Please just follow me!" He shouted slightly, drawing a few stares. He looked around and quietly said "Now".
"No! Not until you tell me!" Twilight said.
Temps frowned, but than smiled. Than laughed, which drew even more attention onto him. "I guess asking you won't work." He said"You are certainly smarter than we expected." Twilight once again stepped back even more. Temps, on the other hoof, stepped closer. Out of no were, they teleported with a bright golden flash. "Now then, were alone. And no one can see us." he said, his voice dangerously low.
They were in a vast field of some sorts. Were, Twilight did not know or care at the moment. "Who are you?" She said, trying to be confident. He is just a unicorn, Twilight, you can handle yourself she repeatedly told her self this.
Temps smile brightened. "You don't need to worry about that." he said, his voice was still low. He slowly walked up to Twilight. On instinct, she teleported away from him. Only a few feet. But, far enough that nothing bad could happen.
"I'm going to ask again. Who are you?" Twilight said, her voice demanding, but there was a hint of fear in it
Temps laughed. He heard her fear. "Oh, you really don't need to worry. All you do need to care about is not me, but yourself." He said, teleporting in front of her. His bright golden eyes meet Twilight violet ones. She tried to step back, but Temps stopped her. His smile increased ever more. "Princess Twilight Sparkle" Out of no were, he kissed her, a fierce wet kiss.
Twilight shoved him off. Panting heavily, instantly wiping her mouth "YOU ARE SICK! YOU - YOU -"
"Oh, please." He licked his lips, "I am not a rapist. All I needed was information" he said, once more licking his lips, his voice loud and cocky. Twilight tried flying away, but something stopped her. She looked at Temps, his horn had a gold aura around it. Twilight tried yet again to fly away, and was almost successful. But a sharp pain went down her neck. Twilight found herself engulfed in darkness, her body warping, she tried to fight it, but it was to much.
"It was nice kissing you. Once we meet again, maybe I'll do something more... Drastic." Temps Moe's voice was fading quickly. "But, I wish you the best of luck in the past."
