Grimoire of Equestria
Morning of New Beginings
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI couldn't move.
I wouldn't move.
If one were to look at the picture before me, they would either laugh or do one of those 'D'awww' things that the ponies do. Lets recap shall we?
I had Pinkie, who fell asleep on top of me mind you. She had moved up my chest and now rested her head on one side of it, right under my chin. On the other side, was Luna. She had somehow curled around Pinkie, resting her own head on the other side of my chest. Their faces a mere inch apart. I'll have you know, that waking up to that sight was quite the shock, let alone the fact that I didn't want to wake them up. Pinkie even had her tongue lolling out while she was snoring lightly. On the other hand, Luna was constantly fidgeting in her dream, and even mumbled out cute things.
"Mrr.. Play that table.." My eyebrow rose.. What the hell is she dreaming about?
...
Suddenly a dastardly smirk was on my face, as an idea poked its ugly head around. I leaned in as close as I could without moving too much and whispered in Luna's ear.
"But, your table is better." I whispered. A look of mock anger shot onto her face.
"No.. That one is yours.. Mine.." She said with a fake growl, as she took her forelegs and wrapped me in a deep hug. Like she was protecting something.
"Yeah, its.. hers.." I heard another mumble, and my smirk grew. I looked to Pinkie and she was inching closer to Luna, reaching out for what looked like a hug. In the instant she made contact with Luna, Luna grabbed her and held her tightly. They now held each other in what looked to be a very Intimate position. If they had their eyes open they would be looking into each others. Pinkie was even nuzzling Luna gently. The fact that they were still both on top of me was still a slight issue. However, my real issue came in the form of a White Alicorn that just appeared in a flash of Golden light.
"*Snicker*" She held back her laugh, with a hoof. My heart froze for a second.
"Don't-" I tried to beg.
"Aaah Haha! Oh that's priceless! Oh how I wish I had a Camera-pony with me!" Celestia laughed hysterically. Her laughing, of course, roused the other Two. Gently, with a flutter of eyelashes, Luna woke up and let out a yawn that ended with a small squeak. She lifted a hoof to her eyes and rubbed at them for a second. When she opened them again, all she saw was me, and Pinkie. The later looked happy about something.
"Pinkie?" Luna asked, still a little groggy. Pinkie, who for some reason was now wide awake, nodded her head viciously, and smirked.
"You sure are warm Lunie." Pinkie said, while finishing with a full blown nuzzle with Luna. Said pony now had a deadpan look on her face as she looked at my smirk as well. She gently lifted Pinkie off me and rolled off me as well, allowing me to sit up. I proceeded to grab Pinkie and Luna and bring them both in a big hug. Ending it with a kiss for Luna and a peck on the cheek for Pinkie. Luna sighed and turned to me.
"This is going to be normal from the Two of you isn't it?" She asked. I looked to Pinkie as she flipped off the bed and landed on Two legs, I followed and landed in a crouch behind her holding her up with one hand on her back, a hand showing the 'V' sign, and my smirk.
"It wouldn't be fun if it wasn't!" We shouted at the same time. Pinkie immediately rolled onto the ground in a laughing fin, as I chuckled as well. Our antics causing Luna to just smile, and Celestia to chuckle. When pinkie stood up from her rolling, she thrust out a hoof, which was met with my open palm for a 'High Hoof' as they call it.
"Perfect!" She said with a smile. "It was like spent all night practicing it or something!" I chuckled.
"Yes, I don't think we'll be topping that anytime soon." I said while ruffling up Pinkie's mane. I felt a twitch go through her body, and her tail moved around rapidly as well as a few other things as she spazzed out for a second.
"Ooh, New pony in Ponyville! Gotta go say Hi and make a new friend, see you tonight!" She blurted out before disappearing from both sight and my senses in a puff of Pinkie shaped smoke.
"Well then, that was a fun little wake up call. Did you need something sister?" :Luna asked Celestia. Oh, that right. She just kind of came in un-announced. Celestia seemed to be a bit flustered, as her horn lit up causing a tray to float in through the door. A tray holding cups and a steaming pot of, what I could only assume was, tea.
"I.. had something I wanted to talk to you about. Alone." She seemed adamant on that part.
Oh
Oh! I'm pretty sure I know what this is about, if my memory is correct.
I jumped into a standing position, slightly crouched as always, and slinked over to the door. As I left the room and went to close the door, I stopped the door just inches from closing, and looked to Luna. She was waiting for me to close the door so she was confused when I didn't. I shot her a quick thumbs up and a wink. Yeah.. That should send the right message. Luna looked at the door in confusion until her sister started talking.
----Hazama----
A few minutes later I found myself in the kitchen.. It was empty, surprisingly. Probably since breakfast was served almost Two hours ago. I shrugged and just went about making my own breakfast. I thought about it.. And decided to make enough for about Three. If I have one thing I still have from my old life, it was my ability to cook. I started to grab the ingredients I needed and went to work.
"Since when can you cook?" Terumi asked.
"Ho? Your alive? And always, just never had the chance to." I retorted, turning on the heat to the stove, and prepping the oven.
"Yeah, still hate you by the way. And you've never even mentioned it before now!" Terumi countered.
"If memory serves you Two were sworn enemies. It's not common to talk about life leisure's in death battles you know." Nightmare seemed a bit too happy to interject.
"Yeah but-" Terumi tried.
"Oh! Nightmare, good to hear from you. How are you feeling? That whole body split thing must have really sucked.. I'm sorry." There was a slight pause in the conversation.
"The hell are you apologizing for?" He almost growled at me.
"Indead it did 'suck' but I am glad you asked. I am fine, at least somepony asked me." She seemed a bit huffy towards Terumi. I shrugged, and continued sautéing what was in my pan, while checking the oven.
"Really? I said I was sorry! There was so much going on that I didn't even think to ask that!" Terumi.. whined? The hell was wrong with him?
"Hmph, sometimes I wonder if I chose the right side." I could feel Nightmare giving Terumi the cold shoulder. Did.. Did I start a couple's argument? Aah shit, I don't have Popcorn!
"Ah, come on babe, you know Evil is the way to go" I could feel Terumi's tension. I pushed in my final product into the oven and let it sit for a few minutes to crisp up. I started to grab the ingredients for the second course.
"Hmph, is that the best you can come up with?" Nightmare snorted out in anger.
"You do realize, that all we need to do is get out of here is..." For the next few minute all I heard was whispers. I continued making the rest of the second course in that time, taking out my first course as well. I lowered the temperature of the oven to a smaller scale, a mere 80 degree's, and left it to cool for a bit. I went to make the appetizer, collecting the items I need for that as well. While dicing them up, Nightmare spoke up.
"Oh that's brilliant!" Nightmare purred. I heard Terumi chuckle to himself.
"Your damn right it is! I don't need no soft heart to be strong." Terumi called out in amusement. I laughed on the inside. That line had been the downfall to many a man.
"Soft heart huh?" Nightmare said softly. "So you don't think being in a relationship deserves any heart huh? Oh? That was new, I didn't think she would be so literal.
"What?" Terumi sounded just as confused.
"Hmph!" Nightmare seemed to have enough of the current topic and started to fade from the conversation.
"Wait! What the hell are you talking ab-*Smack* Bitch!" Terumi hissed out. I felt his eyes widen at his accidental outburst.
"No wait! *SMASH*" ...And the link went dead again. I chuckled, those Two would make great friends if they weren't constantly trying to get free/kill me, and trying to rule the whole world. The day I fully trust the words they say to me, is the day I take a close look at a Guillotine.
I checked the clock on the wall. It had only been Forty-Five minutes, but they should be close to done. After putting the warm trays into the oven to stay hot, and the cold one in the fridge, I washed my hands and went upstairs to get the Two.
----With Luna and Celestia----
"So what was it you needed to talk about?" Luna asked, still confused about Hazama's actions in the doorway. She looked to Celestia who was pouring the tea with her magic, yet fidgeting like a School-Filly.
"Well, I've had some time to think on it, and as such, I would like to talk to you about.. Hazama" She said, a small blush showing through her White fur. Immediately Luna's eyes flashed with understanding, and a tiny, hardly noticeable smirk appeared on her face.
"Ah, And what is it you wish to talk about?" Luna asked her, her knowing grin now visible. Celestia took a small sip of tea to calm her nerves.
"Please sister, don't play games with this, it's important." Celestia seemed desperate. Luna put a hoof on her sisters own in comfort.
"Ask away Tia." Celestia looked into her sisters eyes and took a deep breath.
"After witnessing you Two together, I realized how much I've missed the physical contact, among other things, of a relationship. I know that Hazama is yours, and by our Old Law we are supposed to share, it didn't seem right to abuse that. But he seems so caring for you, and I've seen what he will go through for you. It makes my heartbeat rise when I think of somepony doing those things for me. I tried thinking of ways around it, but anypony I could think of would say no because I'm their Princess. I know that Hazama would be a good choice, but I don't want you to think I was forcing myself into your Herd. I don't want Hazama to hate me for-" Celestia was silenced from her ramblings by Luna's hoof. Luna sat there with a sisterly smile on her face, as she helped her sister relax again.
"He said yes" She said simply. Celestia nearly dropped her cup in surprise from the simple statement.
"What?" She asked softly.
"Hazama is a smart Stallion, he knew what you were coming in here for and nodded at me with a wink on the way out. His way of saying 'I know what she wants, And I agree.'. To be honest, I'm surprised he accepted you so fast, but then again, he forgave you instantly when he first got back." Luna shrugged. Celestia sat there shocked.
"H-he doesn't care?" She asked softly to herself.
"You know, This is something we should be talking to him about. It's only fair that the Stallion in question be here for an induction." Luna said with a smirk. Celestia's face lit up in a deep red.
"We cant!" She started.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
"Ladies? Breakfast is ready, I'll be waiting in the dining room." Hazama called from the other side.
*Rumble...*
Luna chuckled to herself embarrassedly.
"Lets go eat, shall we?" Celestia said with a sigh.
----Dining Room----
I had just finished setting everything up, food included, when the Two walked down the stairs leading to the dining room. I pulled out the chair for them both individually as they came to their respective seats. Both of their eyes were wide, and their mouths were watering. On the table was a huge Veggie Omelet cut up so it can be taken in slices. It was full of Cheese, Peppers, Onions, Mushrooms, and even some Broccoli. All of which, except the cheese, was grilled before being thrown into the egg mix. Next to it were Three stacks of pancakes, the first was Blueberry, Luna's favorite. Next was Raspberry, Celestia's favorite. Finally, a stack of simple chocolate chip for me. Currently in front of them was a small bowl filled with a salad mix, with toppings for said salad in front of them waiting for their choice.
Not bad for on the spot cooking if I do say so myself. I watched as they took to the food like starving Foals. I felt a sense of pride when they continued to eat until nothing was left, I barely had any! I barely need any to start with, so that's fine.
"You need to show me the maid who cooked this, I'm letting her join the Herd. This food was amazing!" Luna said, patting her belly letting out a content sigh.
"And I will give her free vacation time. That was exquisite!" Celestia wiped her face with a napkin. I couldn't help but chuckle. They seemed confused about my choice of action, as they stopped what they were doing and leaned forward.
"What is it Hazama?" Luna asked.
"Nothing, I just never thought you'd like my food that much." I started collecting the plates. The Two were silent. So I just proceeded to the wash area. As I washed the plates, the pans were washed earlier, I heard them a bit from the other room.
"..Even washed the dishes.. You should ask.." I only heard bits and pieces from them. When I walked back into the dining room, I noticed that they were waiting for me. Luna with a smile, and Celestia unable to look at me anyway. I sit down, and address the obvious tension in the air.
"So what's up?" I asked outright. Celestia who was taking another sip of juice, almost choked on the directness. Since I had looked right at her when I asked, she knew I expected her to talk.
"Well, I guess.. I just wanted.." She fumbled for words a bit. I let a gentle smile show her there was no rush.
"Its okay Tia, just breath." Luna said to her sister, rubbing a hoof reassuringly. "Your overthinking it again." Celestia breathed in a deep breath, and relaxed. She did so a few more times before starting again.
"I wanted to know if you would accept me into your Herd." She asked with as straight a face as she could muster. I raised an eyebrow. Herd? An interesting take on the word. Nonetheless, I smile.
"Sure" I said.
"Ok, that's fine, I knew-" She stopped herself, her ears splayed back a bit. She looked.. Adorable. Never thought I'd ever say that about the one who sealed me away for a Thousand years. but.. Oh well. You win some you lose some. My loss was that if you think about it, it could all have been avoided if I hadn't visited Luna and released my power all that time ago. I could have tried better to have a better first impression..
"Y-you said yes?" Celestia asked, albeit shakily.
Oh, right. Now's not the time to revel in past mistakes.
"Of course. As I said to you before, I hold no grudges for what you did to protect your sister. If anything, I should be the one to apologize for-" I was interrupted by a White blur slamming me down. Celestia had leapt across the table and caught me in a death-hug. Tears were streaming down her face, as she shook with silent sobs.
"Jeeze, if the mare wanted a god-damned boyfriend so much she should have just said so! We could have handled her." My eyebrow twitched as I heard Terumi from inside the link.
"Nightmare, if you please." I asked curtly.
"My pleasure.." A few crashing noises were heard accompanied by the sound of something being dragged.
"How the fuck are you so strong?! *Smack* God Damnit mare! That fucking hurts!"
*ROOAARR!!* A beast like roar was heard
"...Eeep!" Terumi squeaked out. *Smash!* ..And the link went down again..
That will never cease to be funny.
Now that the asshole is being beaten to death again, I could focus my attention on the crying mare. I ran a hand through her mane, and kissed her forehead. She immediately nuzzled my neck, and I finally heard what she was muttering.
"Thank you.. Thank you!" She seemed so happy. Next thing I knew Luna was helping Celestia get up. With a rather cute hiccup, Celestia composed herself, and looked at me again.
Oh.
My heart just melted a bit.
The warmth in those eyes combined with the deep feeling of gratitude and what I can now attest to being affection, made my heart skip a beat. So as usual, I had to break the ice.
"So, you joining me, Luna and Pinkie tonight? It would be nice if you did." I asked gently. She only nodded, probably too afraid of her own words.
"Right then, I guess I'll look around here and head to Ponyville to see where to take you three.." I said as I leapt from the open window, as its my favorite way to enter/exit a building.
As I flew through the air with the help of my Ouroboros, I missed Luna turning to Celestia.
"See? I told you, he's Very good at what he does." Her only response was a dazed look in her sister's eyes and a warm smile.
A minute away, I found myself standing near the top of a tree. I had my hand in my pocket, and the other was now firmly planted on my face.
"Aah shit.. I don't have any money!" I cried out. I looked to the sun, and noted that I should have about Seven hours to do this. I steeled myself. I had a lot to do in a short time.
