He Who Commands Ice, Snow And Blizzards

    It has been a week now since Keiji had been brought into this new world. He was still no more closer to letting any of the ponies know what or who he really is though. He hardly ever leaves him home, and when he does, it is to return to his ship for whatever reason. Even after what had happened the other days, he still didn’t feel like he could just let his guard down around these beings. What he freaking out about nothing? Were they really as kind as they all portrayed to be? He was currently in his home, reading a few books that Twilight had brought him. There was a knock at the door. He looks up from his book and calls out.

    “It’s open.”

    He said as he closed the book and stood up, walking over to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of water. The door opens and who should be the one to enter but Fluttershy. The very pony who prevented him from making a mistake that he probably would have regretted but, that still remains to be seen. Keiji looks over at the voluptuous pegasus mare. She was wearing a for-fitting green turtleneck sweater, and light blue denim shorts which hugged her hips nicely, Even though she wore a sweater, there was no hiding that ample bust that was beneath it, and they were plentiful indeed.

    “Um...hi there Keiji. H-How have you been lately?”

    She said in her gentle kind tone, looking around the home to see that he was keeping it nice and tidy, which impressed Fluttershy.

    “Oh you know, just staying away from others when I can. Still not quite used to this yet. Wondering if you and your friends are as genuine as you seem. You know, stuff like someone like me worries about in his current situation.”

    “Oh…”

    She said as she lowers her ears with a bit of a sad look on her face. She had really hoped after what had happened he had changed his view on her and her friends. Though her thought was changed when he walked up in front of her and offered her a glass of water.

    “That doesn’t mean I have to be a rude host to my guests though.”

    Fluttershy smiles down at him and takes the glass of water thankfully, Keiji walks over to the kitchen table and sits down, Fluttershy following and pulls up a chair near him. It was quiet for a few minutes, until Fluttershy spoke up.

    “So...I was wondering...if you want to that is...if you’d accompany me today. I need to head out into the Everfree Forest and well...I don’t like going in there by myself. And it is the only place where I can find the herbs I need to make one of my sick animalfirneds healthy again...please?”

    She gave him those adorable big cyan blue eyes. Which he had to admit was chipping at his ucy wall. He shakes his head and sighs.

    “None of your friends want to go with you?”

    Fluttershy shakes her head as well.

    “They said they were too bosy with their own things...I just...I just don’t want to go in there by myself.”

    Keiji could see that she really didn’t want to. He finishes drinking his water and sets the glass on the table. He then nods to ehr.

    “Alright. I will go with you. I can’t stand to see you look so downi about it...and it is pissing me off that I can’t find the reason why.”

    Fluttershy gasps happily and jumps up, she wraps her arms around him and hugs him tightly, burying his face into her ample bust and nuzzling the top of his head.

    “Oooh thank you so much Keiji! I know that my animal friend will be very happy you came along with me!”

    He wasn’t going to lie, he is a male after all and he thought she had some very very nice breasts. He actually that she was kind of pretty as a whole. Adorable voice, beautiful eyes, shy and sweet demeanor--Wait...no! What was he thinking?! He pushes her away, but not roughly. He backs away from her and simply stares at her with those icy eyes.

    “Let’s just go.”

    “Right...sorry…”

    Once they left Keiji’s house, they walked down the street together. Not many words were said. Though the two of them did get a lot of stares. Keiji ignored them for the most part. Though he couldn’t shake off the few stares of sexual curiosity he was getting from a few of the mare and dreamy eyes of the fillies. He simply walked faster, wanting to be away from all the watching eyes. Once outside of the town, Keiji lets out a sigh of relief and looks back at Fluttershy.

    “What is with some of your females here? They were looking at me like i was a kubrow looks at it’s next meal…”

    “I am so sorry about that Keiji...I suppose it is because you are...a completely different being than what they are used to seeing. That can get a mare’s and filly’s attention sometimes.”

    He shakes his head and facepalms.

    “Great, now I have to worry about having my bones jumped as well? Even more of an incentive to not leave my home unless needed.”

    “Oh it’s not that bad. I think it was rather adorable that some of the fillies seem to like you.”

    They continued walking on the path that lead into the forest, he looked up at her with an ‘are you serious?’ stare.

    “Fluttershy, I am A LOT more older than you think I am. I am perhaps older than you are. By far.”

    She blinks a bit at this, then lenas in closely to examine him.

    “But...you don’t look a day over sixteen...I find it hard to believe is all…”

    “My body stopped ageing when I was seventeen. It is all a part of what I am. I am a Tenno. A warrior of the Void.”

Wait...why am I telling her this…?

    He thought to himself.

    “Well, it doesn’t matter what you are Keiji. What matters is who you are and how you choose to be. And an important lesson in friendship is to accept that of others. Also...I am curious. What is a kubrow?”

    “A kubrow is a canine like creature that has served as a pet and battle companion before, but she passed away a year ago. Not really wanting anymore pets after that. I got too attached to her and then she was taken from me.”

    Fluttershy’s eyes watered a little bit when he told her he had lost his furry companion. She didn’t like it when people’s pets passed away, knowing fully well how that feels. She walks up to him and gently places a hand on his shoulder, gently rubbing it.

    “I am sorry Keiji, it must have been hard on you to lose her.”

    He nodded and just kept on walking.

    “It was. I’d rather not look back on it though. Let us go so that your friend won’t meet the same fate.”

    Fluttershy frowns as he pulls away from her comforting touch. But follows him.

    “You know...you don’t always have to hold in your emotions and hide your distress.”

    Keiji stops and turns his head, that icy gaze making her stop dead in her tracks and sending shivers up her spine.

    “It’s none of your business. I don’t even know why I told you what I already did.”

    He said as they continued their walk into the forest. Fluttershy knew that he wasn’t trying to be rude, but she really wished he’d open up to her. He seems like sweet guy, but he doesn’t trust anypony even in the slightest. Fluttershy and her friends believe that he is just protecting himself though. It is plain as day. They finally find the herbs that Fluttershy needed. But while she was gathering them. A wolf came out of the bushes and started growling at them. Not a timber wolf, but an actual wolf. Fluttershy was about to go over to it, but watched as Keiji approached it first. It growled lowly and got in a pouncing position. But at soon as Keiji locked eyes with her, the wolf lets out a whimper and lowers her body onto the ground. Fluttershy’s eyes widen at this.

What...did he just do to her…?

    Keiji kneels down and begins to lightly run his hand up and down the large canine’s back, the wolf’s tail starting to wag happily. She began panting and growling playfully as she pawed at his hand.

    “That’s a good girl. Where is your pack sweetheart? Did you get separated?”

    Fluttershy was astounded at how...easily he tamed a wild feral wolf. Not even she could do that right away. She watched him with a smile on her face. He seemed so...intune with the canine. He rubbed her belly a few times and scratched under her chin and behind her ears. Fluttershy saw something she never thought she’d get to see on him. A smile. A few howls were heard off in the distance, the wolf’s ears perked up and looked to the direction, then back to Keiji.

    “Sounds like they are calling for you. Go be with your family sweetheart.”

    He said as he pets her on the head gently. He wolf nuzzles into his hand and places her arms on his shoulders affectionately. She then runs off to reunite with her pack. Keiji stands up and turns to see Fluttershy with her arms crossed under her bust with a smile and an arched brow. Keiji arches one back.

    “What?”

    “Someone has a way with animals.”

    “It’s only with canines. Don’t read too much into it.”

    Fluttershy giggles lightly.

    “I also got to see you smile. That was a treat in of itself.”

    She said as she stood up and picked up the wooden basket she had brought along, now having what she needed.

    “Why shouldn’t I be happy when I am around canines? They are loyal creatures. They never turn on those they care for if you treat them with respect and love. Anyways. Did you get what you needed?”

    “I sure did. Let’s head back now.”

    Keiji nods and they make their way out of the forest. Getting back onto the path that leads them to Ponyville. On the way there, Fluttershy stops at the path that leads to her house.

    “I head off this way, keiji. Thank you so much again for going with me.I know much didn’t happen. But having you there made me feel safe.”

    “Yeah, sure no problem. Well, see you around Fluttershy.”

    He said as he began to walk off. As Fluttershy watched him, she squeezed her basket handle in her hands and fidgets a bit. She then runs to him and calls out his name.

    “Keiji wait!”

    He stops and turns to her.

    “Yeah-?”

    He was suddenly cut off by a hug and a gentle kiss to his cheek.Fluttershy quickly pulls back with a massive blush on her face.

    “I...really meant it Keiji. Thank you.”

    He blinks a few times and just nods

    ‘Y-yeah…”

    He said as he began his way back to his home. By this time the sun was setting and night time had come. He walks up to his door and opens it, and slams it hard behind him as he enters,letting out a frustrated growl.

    “This is fucking ridiculous! I let my guard down around these being too easily and I don’t know why!”

    He said to himself as he walks into his bedroom and falls face first onto his bed. Gripping the sheets in his hands in annoyance.

    “This is pissing me off to no end…”

    Before sighing, not knowing what he should do. Should he let them in? Or should he continue to keep that ice wall up and them out?
