The blue coated pony wandered around the stalls to find his own. His teal colored mane covered his face as he pushed a cart of fish over to a red and silver stall, where he dumped all his fish into a tray filled with ice. It was not a good day for him, and all he wanted to do was stab something.
“Sir! Stop, we only meant to ask you a question! We didn’t think it would make you upset.” He paused, his hoof still in the air. The students panted, tired from chasing the odd pony who was rumored to be raised by griffins.
He glared at them. “You laugh because I can’t read?” They shook their heads, even though that had been the reason. The stallion narrowed his odd red eyes at them. “Not all the ponies who can’t read are stupid. Who the buck do you think I am?” The CSGU (Celestia’s School for Gifted Unicorns) students gasped at his language and looked at each other in shock.
When they turned back to face him, he was gone.
A cough brought the pony back to reality, and he realized a customer was impatiently waiting. He blinked and put away the fish he had destroyed with the knife.
“Your order?” He asked. The purple unicorn nodded. “I would like fish; salmon and sweetfish. Sliced, if you please.” I’m not pleased with the fact that you want sliced fish. He shoved the thought to the back of his head and nodded. He opened the cooler that contained his fish and took out a salmon and a sweetfish. Using his favorite butcher knife, he cut the fish into 4 long pieces and used his magic to place the fish into the bags branded with his cutie mark. "Thank you, Broil." He nodded.
As she walked away, he saw the slight movement at her torso. There was no mistaking it, those were wings. Had he served another alicorn?
How many of these damned ponies were there now?! He gritted his teeth and slammed the knife deep into the cutting board. He let out a breath and flicked his hoof, a habit of his to use his only good piece of magic; creating fire. He watched as the fire flickered and danced.
"Who got you upset this time, Gilbert?" He jumped, and he lost all control of the small fire that he had in his magic vicinity. The fire burned his stall and was heading over to his neighbor when a stream of water headed towards the direction of the fire and quickly put it out. He nodded and apology at his neighbor, and looked back at the white alicorn.
He rolled his eyes. "What the BUCK, Celestia. You know well that magic ain't my strong point." She held no response to his foul language and smiled. "It's 'magic isn't my strong point.'."
"Celestia, you damn know this is my way of talkin'."
She kept the smile upon her face, even though internally she was screaming, wishing she had kept her sister from throwing him in jail so many times. "Apologies, Gilbert."
As he turned towards his destroyed stand (and fish), he snorted flames from his nostrils and called behind his shoulder, "Damn that, Celestia. You know Gilbert isn't a name I listen to anymore." And she left.
~~~~~~~~
"No, no, no, no, NO!" Char Broil ran out of his little hut and watched the fire spread towards the forest, probably scaring every animal out of the woods. He watched as timberwolves, bunnies, and other animals escape out of the raging woods, alight with flames.
He heard the wings of two ponies and groaned. "I swear, this ain't my fault. I was cooking and the wind was blowin' the wrong way. I just forgot to check. Luna, I swear, you put me in that damn jail one more time..." He trailed off as he turned, facing a pink and purple alicorn.
"For buck's sake, how many alicorns are there now?!" The pink pony cocked her head to one side. "Well, now that Flurry's here... Five." Char snorted, fire coming out of his nostrils. The alicorns jumped and as his red eyes adjusted to the darkness, Char realized he recognized the purple one. "You! You're the alicorn I gave the fish to earlier!"
"Hey, I have a name." He rolled his eyes at her response, something he seemed to do more often now that he was in the Crystal Empire. "And I don't give a damn." The pink one, he recognized as the Princess of Love. The purple one must have been new since she looked like she wasn't used to her wings. "Cadance. Who's the purple one?" Princess Cadence sighed, used to her Aunts' hater.
"That's Twilight Sparkle. She's the Princess of Friendship." Broil snorted again, this time laughing. "Friendship? Hah! And what's that going to do to this world?" Twilight huffed and turned to the Love Princess. "Celestia told us to put out the fire. Can we do that and go?" Twilight knew this was another one of Lilac Snowflake's OC friends; no pony in her universe would ever resort to such language.
As the alicorns put out the fire, he prepared dinner. With a sigh of annoyance at Celestia's lessons getting to him, he prepared 2 more plates for the Princesses after they finished using their water.
~~~~~~~~
They sniffed the air, smelling the scent of cooking fish. They trotted over to the smell, where the blue furred pony silently ate his fish as he looked at the fire, dancing for him again. He looked up as he heard the hooves approaching him. "Are you two hungry?" He asked, and they slowly nodded. He stood up and removed some fish that had survived the destruction of his stall. He closed eyes and let out a breath, and used the only spell he had ever mastered. The Bound Knife spell. Using this, his cuts were more precise and he let a satisfied snort of approval when he checked the quality of the fish innards. As Broil fried the fish over the fire, Twilight became curious.
He was harsh and rude but seemed more calm away from ponies and close to fires. She asked Cadance why he recognized her and the Princess of Love snickered. "Twi, he was arrested on three counts of arson in Griffonia, illegal knowledge and possession of combat magic, five counts of assault, five other times for disturbing the peace, and three times for insulting the Princesses and possession of illegally imported salt. So... about 18 times. I think this will be his 19th time after Luna finds out." Twilight's eyes widened in surprise but she kept quiet as the pony brought them their fish.
It was exquisite.
~~~~~~~~
After the alicorns left, Char 'Gilbert' Broil lit another fire, staring at it slowly dancing in the darkness. The light was the only thing shining beside the crescent moon in the sky, as the sky was covered in clouds. He rolled onto his back and stared into the abyss of night.
Author's Note
Um... I have no excuse for this. I just haven't been able to write as much, since I'm starting a new book on my Wattpad account and I'm trying to finish up a book so I don't have to bother with it anymore.
I also have no idea what the Bound Knife spell was used for... Sorry if I made it up along the way.
That was an excuse, wasn't it? Dam. ![]()
Anyway...
