Polyamorus

Chapter 2

       "I gota go. see ya then," Vinyl says as she trots away.

"I had no idea how much of a stud you were Isk," a voice says. I tense up and regain my straight face. "No need to worry isk, your not in trouble." Luna says though the bars of the castle wall. I loosen up a bit. Me and luna have been close ever since I helped her with her nightmares. "Hey isk, how long has it been since you've taken leave?" She asks. "Two years." I reply in a flat voice.

"Well then, your dismissed until I need you back." She says. I turn around and look at her with a questioning look. "Well go! Get outa here, go have fun!" She says.

       I leave my post and retreat back to the barracks were I stow my armor again. Then I leave.

       I look at the card around my neck;

July 30th at ponyville

9:00

       Today is the 28th so two days including tonight. I enter the pub and sit down at the bar. "Hey joe," I say. "Heeeeyy my buddy isk! What are ya doin off so early?" He asks. "Princess luna said im on a mandatory vacation." A respond. Joe slides me a glass,

"on the house," He says. I set a bag on the table.

"Payin off my tab early." I say. "Goin out of town for a few days" I add.

"No need isk, I got ya covered." He says.

"Are you sure?" I question him. He nods.

       I drink my glass and flip it over, "see ya joe." I stand. "Later Isk." I hear him say as i walk out. I arrive at my apartment. I unlock the door and go inside. Everything is clean, I go into my room and lay down in my big bed. Smells like vinyl.

The next night...

       I wake up and get out of bed. I go into the kitchen were I pour a bowl of cereal and milk. After eating I go back into my room and put on a rucksack I had packed the previous day. I walk out of my apartment and in the direction to the train station. Its dark, the night has just begun. As I reach the train station I buy a ticket  and wait for my train. Within about thirty minutes the train arrives and the trip to ponyville is underway.

       When the train arrives I walk out into the small town of ponyville. The streets are empty and the smell of food fills the air. I walk in the middle of the dirt road looking around for somewhere to stay. I wander for a bit and decide that it would be fine to sleep outside, I go to a clearing just out of town and lay down in the grass looking up to the stars.

Soon I'm asleep again, just before the sun rises.

       I wake up, its 8:34. I can see lights shining in the sky across town. I stand up and start heading to the lights. When I get there I see theres a huge line going to a ticket booth with someone checking tickets, theres a empty line and a stallion with a security necklace. I walk up to him and show him my pass. "Right this way" he says opening a door. I walk in and see the area, all the walls are black and neon lights flash all over them. Theres a stage and another security member standing by some stairs.

       I walk down to the security guard a and show him my pass, he steps to the side and lets me pass. I walk up the stairs and backstage. After walking around for a bit i find a room with voices coming from it "I wonder if he's coming?" One says.

"he will," Another says. I quickly realize that its vinyl and octavia. I knock on the door. "Come in!" Vinyl yells. I open the door after hearing the orders. "welcome our special guest" vinyl says. I smile

"ya know, i think this is the first time i've left the city," I say. "Really?" I would have thought that you'd been everywhere by now!" She says with a surprised look.

       "So Isk, how was the trip?" Octavia says.

"It was ok, I took the train." I say. "Ah, I see," She Vinyl stands up "well its 8:56, I should probably get out on stage." vinyl says. "Come on!" She says. As we walk out of the dressing room the roar of the crowd fills my ears. Vinyl bids us farewell and walks onto the stage. I walk back down into the crowd and octavia, well i don't know were octavia went.

       The music was cool. The first song was Beast (New Æg mix) then Empress of evil, Grim, It bites, Missed call (New Æg mix), Point of no return (New Æg mix), and the last song serve n' obey.

       After the show vinyl and octavia found me and we went out into town, we stopped at several bars and by the time we were done octavia and vinyl were completely drunk and i have no idea were they live... "Octavia, were are you staying," I ask because she drank the least.

"At the houuce by da market," she groans.

       I put. Vinyl on my back, shes totally out of it. Octavia is good enough to walk but has to lean on me. I myself am not drunk but i drank way more than octavia and vinyl. I start to walk towards the center of town assuming thats were the market was. When there I look around, theres a house with a record on the front door. "Is that your house?" I ask octavia. "Yeeeps," she yells. Everypony on the street is staring at me now, all i can do is tilt my head and shake it. I found a key behind the record and went inside practically dragging octavia and vinyl into it.

       I take vinyl upstairs, theres only one bed so I lay her down in it. I go back downstairs to retrieve octavia and find her drinking more alcohol. "Oh my god" I say in a disappointed voice. I take octavia upstairs and lay her down but before I could leave she latches on to me and forces me into bed. So now I'm laying between two drunk mares and one of them refuses to let go of me.
