Previous ChapterNext Chapter

     It took Moonlit and Sunrise 2 hours to get from Ponyville to Canterlot, and when they landed the zeppelin on the outskirts of Canterlot, it was locked and no one would be messing with it, due to the fact zeppelins was know for being used by Border Guards, and even though this one was old, it was still respected, and it could still be armed, and no one wants to mess with someone that had access to such a vehicle. Moonlit started toward the castle with a deadly, ice cold, spine shivering look in his eyes, he looked like a murderer, and it didn't help that a civil servant was following him as well, it was a good hour before the charge of this maniac ground to a halt with a familiar voice

"Hey, Moonlit, long time no see!" Moonlit stopped with a dumbfounded look on his face and looked at the white unicorn followed by a grey earth pony trotting toward him, he lost the maniac look, and quickly put on a genuine smile and turned around.

"Hey, Vinyl, how have you been?"

"I'm good, you?" Vinyl said happily, Moonlit chuckled.

"Good, but apparently not as good as you~" Moonlit looked at the grey mare following Vinyl with a mischevious grin, Vinyl simply laughed.

"And you seem to be doing good to~" Vinyl looked at Sunrise with the same look Moonlit had looking at Octavia.

"You got the wrong idea, I don't do Canterlot mares, let alone those who serve in the government" Vinyl gave him a confused smile.

"You was a Border Guard Gunship Captain!"

"Exactly" Both Vinyl and Moonlit laughed

"Oh, I haven't introduced my marefriend~" Vinyl looked at Octavia "This is Octavia, she is a classical musician" Moonlit cut off Vinyl

"My brother always liked music, he probably would be asking you a million questions right now, he would have loved to met you!" Octavia blushed, but Vinyl was confused at Moonlit's phrasing

"You mean 'He would love to meet you', right?" Vinyl said " Are you here to see him too? I heard his ship was docking today, that's why we are here"

"Vinyl, he was K.I.A" Moonlit began trying to make the words come out "He apparently was on his way back to port from dealing with some pirates, and got flanked by one, he was low on ammo and gunpowder and got sunk, no survivors" as he finished, Vinyl was about to break down, and Octavia was comforting her, Moonlit wasn't done speaking "and I'm here at the princesses request for something when I got the news from Sunrise over there" he looked at the civil servant. "I know, he was like a little brother you, and was mine,and I will contact you when I start arranging the funeral, till then, could you accompany me"

Sunrise and Octavia looked at each other dumbfounded on why he would request such a thing. "You afraid you will lose it and need  someone to hold you back like in Trottingham" she looked at him with a smile, she was trying to forget about the death of what was almost a brother to her.

"I'm not afraid, I KNOW I will lose it, and that's the last place I wanna lose it in" he looked at the castle, Vinyl nodded looked at Octavia, who had no idea what she has been drug into, but agreed to go.

"Octavia," Moonlit said getting her attention "If Vinyl tries to calm me, stop me, or anything, DONT stops her, she knows what I Have done, what I WILL do, and how to stop it, no matter if it is beating me to the ground, don't stop it, it's for the best, I have killed many times, in and around this country as Trottingham trash, and as a Border Guard, I lose control quickly, and she is the only one present that can stop it"

Octavia and Sunrise were shocked, this "friend" was HAS killed in the country, they weren't going to press the topic, though, they thought it would have been best not to check the closet for skeletons, Vinyl reassured them and the charge toward the castle continued with 3  mares in tow.
