Chapters Faster. Faster.Faster That is all I could think. The only motivation that drove my aching muscles past their limit. I knew if I stopped... I would die. I shook my head. Trying to clear it of any thoughts that were pointless. I needed to focus. I saw a broken tree up ahead and I prepared to jump. I waited for the last second and then I put all my energy to my legs. I leaped over the 10 foot tall broken tree like it was nothing. Having these hind legs were pretty useful.
I didn't stop to celebrate. My chasers were still on me. I could here their yelling. They were close. I dodged and weaved through the forest, trying to not stop my momentum and end up slowing down. I could feel my chest burn and throat ach. I don't know how long I have been running. In a way, I have been running my whole life. I just don't know where.
I tried to control my breathing. The pain was starting to get to me and I felt as If my legs were going to give out. I was too focused on my pain that I didn't even notice the slope. I fell down. More like rolled down, colliding with other rocks or pieces of earth as I fell. It was a whole minute before it all stopped. My body ached and burned. I just wanted to lay there in the mud. I just wanted to stop everything and be in peace. That freedom was not meant for me.
I heard yelling above me. I swiveled my ears upward while trying not to move.
"I think he is down here! Hey I see him!" The guard yelled to his comrades. Fucking shit.
I got up, trying to ignore the burning sensation running through my muscles. I ran ahead into more forest. I heard a whistle sped past me. I looked down and saw a arrow in the ground. Oh come on! I ran faster.
More arrows sailed past me, barely hitting me. I ducked and dodged the bushes and trees so I could escape. I don't know how long this will last. I am sick and tired of this- . I didn't even finish my thought as I felt a sharp stab in my leg. I toppled over and rolled a few feet, colliding with a tree stump. I groaned in pain. I looked down to see what hit me and grimaced. It was a arrow. It hit my thigh.
I had to pull it out and keep moving. I grabbed the arrow and took a deep breath. In one solid motion I pulled. I cried out in pain as the arrow left my body. I took a couple breaths to calm my heartbeat. I winced as I saw my blood pouring from the wound. I saw my blood drip from the arrow. Lucky shot. I threw the arrow away and tried to stand up. I only got up half way before the pain in my leg flared up again and I fell to the ground. Fuck .
I heard yelling up ahead. "I got him! I hit him over here!" he called out to his fellow guard. I have to make a stand. I sat there, patiently.
They would get here, and I will end this. I decided to patch my leg up until they get here. I reached into my jacket and pulled out a health potion and some energy boosting stems. I set down the needles and looked at the potion. It's red blood color glowing in the darkness. I opened the healing potion and chugged it down. Mmmnnnn, Cherrie . I threw the bottle away and looked down to grab the needles. I pulled off the caps off the needles. Two doses is enough . I grab both needles and drive them into my leg. I inhaled sharply, the pain minor but still hurt. I pressed the buttons on both, injecting me with the boost. I instantly felt more energetic. The pain subsided and I was able to now fully concentrate. I pulled out the needles and held them in my hands. I looked down at my health monitor on my left arm. It told me of how bad I was hurt or what I needed to do. It also had other functions that I did not feel like going over. I quickly stood up, the boost making me hyper like a kid getting his first dose of coffee at 5 years old. I heard them getting closer. Closer. Closer. I saw them. Five royal guards running out of some bushes. All armed with spears and swords.
They all looked identical. Same stupid gold plating. Same serious face when you approach them. I could see under their mask. They were afraid. They should be. One of the five stepped out. He was different. His armor bore a different color. It was different with purple and gold plating, showing off his rank. A captains armor.
"Hey Wolf! You gave quiet a chase!" he laughed. It was Shining Armor. The pretty boy himself. I glared at him. If he wants to be a smart ass, then I won't make any of this fun for him.
"Alright." he said while trying to contain his laughter. "It is time to put you back in your cage and for you to face justice for your crime." he said while trying to act like a real soldier. Cute.
I sighed. I have told him this many times now, but he wont listen. I tried to speak but only coughed. I haven't had any water in forever. The potion helped a little, but it wasn't really to hydrate. I just stood there in silence, wondering how this will end. Before I knew it I heard a loud crack in the sky. I looked up, only to feel small droplets of water hit my fur. I smiled. Rain . I opened my mouth and stuck out my tongue, letting the small droplets of water quench my thirst. I just stood there, ignoring everyone and everything. I enjoyed the feeling of rain hitting my fur and washing away the dirt and blood, making it look slick and clean. My jacket was water proof so I was not worried of my equipment getting wet. I was just happy that this happened to conveniently. The rain started getting harder and the wind picked up a bit. I heard one of the guards cough, trying to get our attention.
"Come on! Lets get him while he is drinking!" he rallied his friends. I frowned and looked back down at the guards. Closing my mouth I took a loud sigh. Finally able to talk, I spoke: "It was not me. I told you this already. I did not kill those ponies." I tried to reason with them, but they would not listen to nothing but their pride and ego. Shining Armor stepped closer.
" And we told you that we have eye witnesses that you killed a whole school of ponies. Also other eye reports that they saw you there at the other killing sites." he said as if he was right to the core. I knew what the game was. I was never there for those incidents. I only learned later that someone else was posing as me. I looked into finding who it was and I tried to chase them but the guard had the chase on me first.
"We are going to take you in... here... Now!" he shouted. The guards got in their battle stance. I just stood there. Thinking on who to take out. There were five of them. Three had swords and two had spears. I didn't need to kill them, but it wont kill them to break a few bones. One of the guards, a spearman, charged me. He ignored Shining's orders and charged without back up. Someone has a sack of balls I waited until he got closer. He was a few feet ahead of me. He tried to stab me but I side stepped. The spear passed me and I grabbed the pole. The guard looked at me in fear. I gave him a toothy smile and took one of the needles and drove it into his leg, shoving the plastic and tube inside his leg. He screamed in pain and I right hooked him in the face, knocking him out cold.
I looked out to the other guards and saw them shivering in fear. All except Shining Armor. I motioned with my head for them to come closer. They all charged at once I focused on the other spearman, knowing he would be the more important. I flipped the other needle in my hand and threw it at him. The needle collided with his shoulder. I put enough force to get the whole thing in his arm. Taking my attention off the spearman I saw the swordsman attack.
Both striking at a horizontal line. I held out my arms, my bracers taking the force of the swings. They tried to push me back, but they don't know who they are messing with. I pushed harder until they look they were about to give up. Taking advantage of their tired state I raise my hind leg and power kicked the left one in the chest, making him fly backwards and breaking a few ribs in the process. I use my free arm and activate my arm gautlet and wrap the blades around the sword. In one quick motion I pulled my arms away and broke the sword in half. I grabbed the back of the guards head and head-butted him. He stumbled back holding his now dented helmet. I kicked him back, sending him flying. I activated my grapple on my right arm and aim at the guard. I shoot and hit him in the shoulder in mid-air. I us the pull system and reel him back. When he reaches me I uppercut him, sending to the ground on his back knocked out.
I looked around and saw no one left. Shining Armor must have ran. Coward . I begin to walk away, but that's when a magic blast hits me in the back. I fly forwards a couple of feet from the impact. I fall to the ground in a daze. Invisibility spell . I quickly stood up and turned around. I touched my ear and activated my thermal scope so I can locate him. I looked around ferociously. I then saw him. He was in a bush. Waiting to attack. I aimed my grapple at him and fired. He did not expect it and got hit in the shoulder. I pulled him in, his spell revealing himself. He flew towards me and I dropped kicked him backwards. I am pretty sure I heard a crack. I got up and faced him, only to see a purple shield covering his body. I raised a brow. What was that crack? . I take a step forward. I all of a sudden feel a intense pain in my leg. I groaned.
I look down and saw it bent at a weird angle. I didn't even realize the force of the kick broke it. I was too surprised that I didn't even notice Shining Run up to me and uppercut me, with his shield on. I fall backward to the ground groaning. I look up at him and aim my wrist gun at him. I fired at his chest. The bullets bounce off him like it was nothing. Panicking I reached back and grabbed my sword. Before I could un sheath it he grabbed me by the collar and right hooked me. I lay back in a daze. I could feel the small trickle of blood running down my nose. He kneels down and flips me over, pulling out my sword. I was to weak to move. My body now deciding to give up, I simply lay there. He stood up and examined my sword.
"So this is the sword that killed so many. To bad I have orders to bring you in alive. I would have found it ironic to kill you with it." he chuckled. I wasn't even fully listening to him. So many thoughts were going through my head that have never until now. While he was monologuing, only one thought went through my mind. One thought that had so many answers but yet added more questions. All I thought was. How the hell did I end up here ?

How the hell did I end up here ? That was the real question. I always wondered that every time I seem close to death. To be honest, I sometimes even ask random ponies that bazar question. They would look at me as if I was mad or freaking out. In a way, I was. I did not know what brought me into this world that has granted me more than I could ask for. I did not know why fate has chosen me to carry this burden. If it chose me of all the people in the universe, then there was something I did not see in myself that it did.
I could start from how I got here. It has been 10 years since I found myself laying in the mud of this forest. The whole area seemed more like a old memory than a current problem. There were a lot of moments that have led to this part in my life. I guess I feel the need to explain some of it to you in order for this story to make sense. Let's start from the beginning. Let's start from me waking up in this world without a clue of who I was.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------<>---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 years ago
Cold. Why did I feel so cold? Why does my body seem to be close to the brink of death. Was I dying? Was I dead? I couldn't even tell. All I knew was that I was cold, and all I could see was darkness. My eyes felt as if they were closed. I did not want to try to open them. I was not sure what I would see or what would happen. I knew if I did not open them then I could not answer my question. I slowly opened my eyes.
What I saw took my breath away. It was a moon. It was a full moon that was white as snow and glowed with a peaceful hue. I was mezmorized with the beauty of the white orb in the sky. I knew I was alive now. There was no way that could exist in the after life. Without even realizing it, another question came to mind. If I was alive, then where am I?
I focused on my other senses. I could smell mud, trees and other wild life. I could feel myself laying on my back. I felt the ground beneath me. It felt like dirt and mud. I could also feel a few blades of grass. I tried to move my body. When I tried to sit up, my body began to hurt. I groaned and fell back down. I was too sore to move. The only way to fix that was to fight the pain and stretch my muscles.
I took a breath and tried to sit up again. I was rewarded with a sharp pain in all my muscles. I gritted my teeth and fought the pain. A minute later I felt myself siting all the way up. I took another breath of air. I moved my arms a bit and stretched my neck, trying to get the extra soreness out. Now that I was sitting in more of a comfortable position, I tried to look at my surroundings. When I looked around I saw many trees and areas of mud and grass. I was apparently in some sort of forest.
Confirming where I was, I looked down at myself. I was not entirely sure what I was. From what I could see I was partly naked. I had no shirt, but I did have some tight shorts. My chest was bare and I could feel a slight breeze come through the air. I shivered from the coldness. I saw that my chest was also a bit furry. I raised my hand and pet my chest. It felt soft and warm, like a dogs fur. I also just noticed something in the middle of my view. It looked long and had a black stub at the tip. I raised my hand to my face to see what it was. When my hand came into contact, I could feel it was connected to my face. I think this was my nose. It was also a bit fuzzy. I even had some whiskers at the end of it. I touched more of my head, trying to find out what I was. I felt fur covering my head. I also felt my ears and found them to be pointy. I think I was a dog. The weird thing was I don't know why I am one. I don't even remember how I got here. I don't even remember my own name.
I looked at the rest of my body. I saw that my legs seemed... different. They were like a dogs, but they were longer and seemed wider. I had hands so I knew I don't walk on all fours. I had to try to walk. I stretched out my legs and tried to stand. I managed to get on one knee, but I was unsure if I would fall if I stood all the way up. I pushed away my fear and stood on both of my legs. I got on my feet and steadily rose to my full height. From how far I was to the ground, I seemed to be at least six feet tall.
I looked around to my surroundings. From the trees and grass and bushes, I could confirm I was in a forest. The only problem was that I did not know where I was in this forest. I looked around if there were any signs or pathways. There were none. I sighed in defeat. Guess I will have to walk randomly. I looked towards the trees on my right. I decided this was a better option and began to walk.
It has been three hours since I woke up in this forest. It had became dark quickly. The trees had begun to block out the moonlight. I walked in a straight line through this sea of trees, trying to find anyone or anything that could help me. I began to feel doubtful of any type of help. I think I was the only one is this forest.
As I continued to walk, I started to hear something that resembles running water. It sounded close. It sounded as if it was on my right. I looked in that direction, and to my surprise, I saw a river. Hope began to fill my mind. I was hungry and thirsty and I was almost ready to collapse from dehydration. I quickly ran towards the river. As soon as I got to the river I fell to my knees and began to drink from it. The river wasn't big or deep. It was pretty shallow and not very wide, but all I cared about was the flowing water. I didn't even try to drink with my hands, I was slurping it up with my mouth. It tasted amazing.
I knelt there, drinking the water for at least 2 minutes. I was super relieved that I came across this river. I continued to drink until I heard a feral growl in front of me. I instantly stopped drinking and slowly looked up. When I looked up, I was met with golden eyes. The golden eyes narrowed. I could not see the creature since it was too dark. There was only a small light poking through the trees and it shined right in front of it. It slowly walked forward into the light; still growling. When the creature revealed itself into the light I froze. It was a wolf.
I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. I didn't dare to look behind since I knew what I would find if I did. As soon as I saw the wolf, it howled and I heard more wolves began emerging from behind it. I quickly turned around and ran and I heard them give chase. That was five minutes ago and I have yet to loose them. I was indeed faster than them, but they were not giving up so easily. I dodged and weaved through the bushes and trees. I kept my eyes forward the whole time. That was my mistake since I didn't see a new wolf pop out and tackle me.
The wolf tackled me to the ground. I rolled a couple of feet with the wolf trying to bite my face out. I slowed to a stop with the wolf atop me. I struggled to keep the wolf off of me, it's sharp fangs trying to bite my face. The wolf was too heavy and my strength began to falter. The wolfs teeth were mere inches away. I tried to get it off of me and I used a free hand to punch it in the face. It only made it more angry and it was close enough to bite me. I cried out in pain as the wolf bit down on my shoulder. I tried to pry it off but it had a firm grip. I just kept punching it until it came off. I screamed as the pain intensified. I quickly brought up my hands to its face and dug my fingers in its eyes. I could feel the resistance and the my fingers going through what felt like a gooey substance. The wolf howled in pain and let go off my shoulder. With this small moment of freedom, I quickly put my feet against its chest and pushed it away making it hit against a tree.
With this moment of relief I sighed. My shoulder burned and throbbed. I looked down at it and grimaced. I could see where the fangs were dug in and saw blood leaking from the holes in my shoulder. I took my sight away from the painful wound and looked where I kicked the wolf. I saw it lay there right next to the tree. It was unmoving and I didn't see its chest rise and fall. I think I killed it. I killed a living creature. The thought of it brought panic to my mind. Was I killer? Is this my destiny? I thought about what had just happened and shook my head. No, I am not. It was either me or it. I didn't have any more time to think as I heard howling not too far from where I was. I stood up and began to run in the direction I was before.
My legs began to hurt as I continued to run. My chest burned and my shoulder would flare up in pain as I maneuvered through the trees. I thought the forest would end eventually, but it still kept going. I slowed my pace to a jog. I was not sure if the wolves were still chasing me. I didn't think I was that worth it. I stopped for a moment to hear if they were behind me. I listened for any howls or growling. I did not hear anything. I think I was safe. As soon as I thought that, I heard a loud roar. It came from right behind me. I quickly turned around and looked into the red eyes of the monster.
It was big. It stood two times my height. It had a lions head with sharp fangs and with a lions body. What was strange was that it also had strange bat wings and a scorpions tail. It roared in my face again and I was pulled from my observation. I quickly turned around and began to run. As I took off the beast swiped at me with its claw. I felt it swipe at my leg and a sharp pain consumed it. I kept running even though the pain in my leg was getting worse with each step. I still kept running. I looked forward and saw something that gave my heart a leap of joy. It looked like a clearing.
I pushed all my energy into my legs as I continued to run. I heard the beast roar behind me. It was faster than the wolves and it was getting closer. I was so close, it was only a few yards away. I dived for the clearing and landed on the ground with aloud THUD*. My breath came in short gasp as I tried to control my breathing. I weakly looked back to see the beast at the edge of the forest standing there. Why wasn't it killing me? I saw it scowl at me with its blood red eyes. It growled and turned back heading into the forest. I sighed and planted my head on the soft grass. That sucked . I heard a shuffle in front of me. I slowly looked up and saw a fuzzy figure. My vision began to become blurry with my exhaustion catching up with me. The figure was yellow and had pink on its head. I couldn't look up anymore as my body became too tied. I closed my eyes and passed out from exhaustion.
Those were the first moments of my new life when I entered this world. It was not something I like to remember. I still had the scars to do that for me. At first I thought my life was over as soon as it started. I thought it would end instantly like that. I was wrong. I was saved by who is now one of my closest friends. She helped me when I was close to certain death. I owe her my life as a friend. She was my first friend in this crazy world.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I woke to a bright light blinding my vision. I instantly closed my eyes, trying to keep the light away. The light was so bright that my eyes still hurt even them being closed. I had to readjust in order for the pain to go away. I slowly opened my eyes and was assaulted by the light. I fought the pain and soon the brightness toned down a bit to where I could tolerate it. I tried to move but was assaulted with pain all over my body. I looked down and saw my body was covered in bandages. I don't remember healing myself. I looked around my surroundings and found myself in what seemed like a living room . It seem like a small cottage with window on my left and a small chair on my right. There was a small painting on the wall of butterfly's. I looked down and saw I was laying on a couch. As I examined the room a bit better, I heard footsteps coming from a door on the other end of the living room.
When the door opened, I was surprised to see an actual person. She was small with a petite frame and yellow fur with pink hair that covered half her face. I could tell she was surprised as well to see me awake. We just stared at each other, not one of us daring to speak. I decided to be the one to break the ice and say something: "Um... Hello?" I said with a bit of nervousness. She squeaked and hid behind her hair even more. I frowned, I didn't think I was that scary. I tried to talk to her some more. "It's okay. I am not going to hurt you" I said with a smile. She seemed to be happy with that since she revealed her face a bit more. I could make out more of her features. I can say she was pretty cute. She had a small muzzle with pretty blue eyes that had a kind feeling behind them.
" Um..Hi" she whispered. I could barely hear her. I think my ears made it a bit more clear. I decided to keep being slow and friendly so I don't frighten her.
"Hi. Thank you for taking care of me... ?" I motioned with my hand that I didn't know her name. She got the message quickly and quietly replied.
" Flu-fluttershy.My na-name is Fluttershy." She spoke up a bit louder. She was getting more comfortable, good.
"Well, Fluttershy, thank you for saving me from my little problem." I chuckled while motioning towards my bandages. She gasped.
"Little problem?! You would have died if I haven't found you outside my cottage!" she said worriedly. I laughed.
"Yeah. I guess I would have." I frowned. I could have died. I cleared those thoughts from my brain and smiled at her. "Well I am internally grateful." I slipped off the couch and tried to stand. I was met with a burning pain in my leg. I cried out in pain and fell over. Fluttershy was at my side in a second.
"Take it easy! You are still injured. I patched the wounds up but they are still healing" she warned me while trying to get me to stand. I groaned as she helped me back up on the couch. I lied back on the couch and sighed.
"Thanks. I guess I should have known that huh?" I joked. She smile and giggled.
"Wait here. I will get us some food and we can talk some more." she said while exiting the room. I lay there thinking on how I am going to explain my situation to her.
We both sat down eating some salad and fruit. She didn't want to move me so she set up a table next to the couch so we could talk. I sat there eating quickly since I wasn't sure how long I have not eaten. As far as I know, that was forever. I heard her cough and looked up at her with salad and other vegetables sticking out of my mouth from trying to stuff it in. She giggled at my face and tried to start a conversation.
"So what were you doing out in the Everfree Forest?" she asked kindly. I didn't know how to answer. I guess to just tell her the truth.
"I honestly don't know. I woke up in the middle of the night almost naked and I had no idea where to go. I just chose a random direction and walked. I kept walking until I came across a river. When I got to the river I found a pack of wolves and they chased me for long time. After a while I finally lost them I came into contact with this big lion beast and was chased by it. It chased me all the way out of the forest. I got all the cuts from them trying to kill me." I explained to her. The whole time she listened she had a worried expression on her face. I did not want to tell her that I killed a wolf since I was afraid it would scare her.
"How did you manage to escape?! You should have died." she asked. I just shrugged.
"I guess It was the will to live that drove me. I also think that being a dog helped with getting away from them." he simply replied. She raised a brow.
"Um...your not a dog." she replied. I looked up at her questionably.
"What!?" I cried out. She nodded.
"Your fur is more shaggy than a dog. Also your muzzle is a bit pointier and your fangs are poking out like a wolfs." she said matter of fact. My teeth did seem a bit sharp and my fur did feel a bit ruff, but still pretty soft and warm.
"I thought I was a dog." I really did think I was a dog. A wolf and dog did share similar traits. "To be honest, I don't know much of myself. I don't know who I am or even my name." I sulked. I looked up and saw her trying to hold back tears. This made my gut tighten up. I didn't want her to cry over me.
"You poor thing. Not knowing where you came from or who you are." she cried. I just sat there thinking on what I could've been. All of a sudden Fluttershy gasped. "What if we made you a new name?!" she said excitedly. I thought on this. Why not. We don't have one at the moment. Why not make a new one. I looked up at her and smiled while nodding my approval. She clapped her hands in excitement.
"Any ideas on what to call me?" I asked. She looked down in thought. I also looked somewhere else in thought. It had to resemble me in a way. It had to show off what I was and be easy to remember. I thought of everything I knew of myself. I woke up in a forest. I killed a wolf. I am a wolf. I woke up in the night. I was chased by a beast and gained many injuries . I suddenly realized that all I knew of myself were things of pain and confusion. I groaned. Suddenly it hit me. I am a wolf.. and I woke up in the night. That is it.
"Night Wolf" I said aloud. Fluttershy looked up at me in surprise. I smiled at her. "That will be my new name, Night Wolf." She smiled back at me and nodded. She suddenly let out and long yawn and covered her mouth. I looked outside the window. It was already getting dark.
"I am glad we thought up of a name for you, but it is getting late." She stood up and grabbed our plates. She walked off into the kitchen and placed the dishes in the sink. She went inside a closet and pulled out a blanket. She walked back into the living room and saw me getting comfortable on the couch. She smiled. "Would you like to sleep on a bed?" she asked while unfolding the blanket. I smiled but shook my head.
"No, this is fine thank you." She nodded and placed the blanket over my body. I just realized that I was naked this whole time. All I had were some tight sweatpants. I saw her walk to a stair case in the far end of the room. While she did she also turned off the lights. She turned around and looked at me.
"Alright then, Goodnight. Get some rest." she said while walking up the stairs. I smiled and waved back at her. I rolled around in my blanket, trying to get comfortable. I sighed as I felt sleep start to consume me. I closed my eyes, Knowing that today I made a new friend.
I still can't get over the fact that I could have died so long ago. It really dawns on you after all the things you have done after that moment. Can you imagine what your life would be like if that one moment in your life hadn't happened? Everything wouldn't be the same.
It had been a whole week since I met Fluttershy, my first friend. She has been feeding me and helped fix most of my injuries. The only problem was that I did not know what to do when I did heal completely. I was not sure if she would kick me out or what? I had to pay her back in the best way I could.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<>-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I stood in one of the few bathrooms of Fluttershy's house. I was looking at the mirror into my reflection. For the first few days of my stay here, I was never able to stand up or walk around the house. The curiosity of exploring the house was killing me. Fluttershy ,however, was persistent that I stayed on the couch and rested. It had been a day since she said that and now I was just getting annoyed. I tried to move around the house, but she was right about my body still healing. I still felt pain in some parts of my body and I quickly returned to the couch.
I tried every now and then to move and was rewarded with a slight pain or soreness. It was only after the eighth time that I decided to just face the pain since I had no other choice... plus I really had to pee. Now here I was starring at my reflection with an awed expression. I have not met any of my species in my time of this world, but to my standards.....I was HOT! My face did seem very wolfish as Fluttershy described, but I found myself noticing more details she did not tell me about. One of them was my eye color. They were more blue than the sky itself. I also noticed my fur was a light darkish grey and had a clean shininess to it.
I had taken off my shirt to examine my wounds, but when I pulled the fabric off, I found myself to be well built. I had muscles covering most of my body. I flexed my arms and saw how much muscles I had. I will say it was pretty impressive. I did not care how I got this body. I was just grateful I did not have any really bad faults.
I continued to flex, but that was until I heard the front door opening. My wolf ears were extra sensitive so I could hear Fluttershy humming in the living room two walls away. I quickly put my shirt on and walked to the living room. I walked into the living room and found fluttershy looking like she was close to panicking. I slowly made my way to her.
"Hey Fluttershy" I said slowly. Before I could say anything else she quickly turned around and had very annoyed look on her face. That was quick.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT OF BED!" she practically screamed. I winced and covered my ears in pain.
"I'm sorry, I had to pee" I cried back in fear. Exactly after I said that, Fluttershy calmed down and smiled with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Oh, Sorry" she squeaked. How the heck?! Her expression quickly turned serious again. "I understand, but you still shouldn't be out of bed." she warned. I sighed and rolled my eyes. I walked behind her and laid on the couch.
"Okay I'm sorry. However, first of all this is not a bed... it is a couch. Second of all, I was getting bored and I needed to move around or I would die. Besides, I do feel better. My wounds don't hurt as much today." I reasoned. She hummed in response.
"Alright, well I just came by to grab a few things since I will be with my friends most of the day. I nodded. Fluttershy told me about some of her friends. I don't remember all of them, but I do know some of the major ones she talks about. One of the few she hangs out is called Rarity. I heard she was a seamstress. I thought it would be nice to meet her. Another one was named Applesmack.... I think? I think she was a farmer. I let go of that thought as I saw Fluttershy walk into the kitchen.
I heard her grab some things from the fridge and put them in a basket. A minute later she comes out with what looks like a picnic basket in her arms. She looked at my resting form and smiled. I smiled back and rolled over on the couch on my belly and buried my face in some pillows. I heard her giggle. She walked to the door and opened it.
"I will be gone for a while. Will you be alright?" she asked with a bit of concern. I didn't reply. I just raised my hand and gave a thumbs up. I heard her giggle again and close the door behind her as she walked out. I sighed and put my hand down. I was lucky to be in her care and for her to let me stay while I was here. I am also grateful that she puts up with my behavior sometimes. I must be pretty annoying every now and then. Suddenly I felt guilty. I have been sleeping in her house and eating her food and I have nothing to show for it. This made me think. Will she kick me out eventually?
I rolled over on the couch and laid on my back. I looked around the house and saw how dirty it was. There were little areas of animal food, some trash here and there, also I think the dishes needed to be washed. An idea popped in my mind. Maybe I can earn my stay here. I stood up with a slight groan and walked to the kitchen where most of the cleaning stuff was. As I was walking there, a certain white bunny decided to come and visit me. I made it to the closet with all the supplies and saw Angel sitting on the kitchen counter eating a cookie. WE both stared at each other, unmoving. He suddenly glared at me and poked his tongue out. Not a second later he hopped of the counter and hopped quickly to the living room. "Stupid bunny" I groaned.
I walked to the closet and pulled out some cleaning supplies. I carried them back to the kitchen counter and thought on what I could do first. I guess I can start the dishes . I walked over to the sink and I stared at the two foot pile of dishes. I sighed. "Today is going to be long."
------------------------------------------------------------------<>------------------------------------------------------------------
I quietly walked through the door to my house. I was not sure if Night was asleep so I tried to be quiet. It was about eleven in the afternoon. I had been with my friends most of the day. When I told him I would be late, I didn't mean to be this late. I felt a bit guilty that I left him by himself the whole day. When I peeked through the door, I saw that all of the lights were off except for the kitchen light. I walked in and closed the door behind me. I walked to the kitchen, thinking I would find Night Wolf in there. When I entered the kitchen, I found that the whole area seemed....clean. I don't remember cleaning the kitchen before I left. I also noticed that the big pile of dishes were now not there anymore. I examined the whole kitchen and found all the plates, dishes, forks, and cups to be where they are supposed to be. I also found a note next to where sink was. I grabbed it and read it.
For all that you have done for me
-Night Wolf
I smiled and put the note down. I walked back to the living room to see if he was there. When I entered the living room I saw that Night was not on the couch, but he was laying sprawled out on the floor. He had a rag in his hand and he seemed kind of dirty. There was also a bit of drool leaking from the corner of his mouth. I giggled at his position. I walked to the couch and grabbed the blanket. I layed it over him and left him be since I knew I would never be able to carry him on the couch. After I layed the blanket on him.... I just stood there. I watched his sleeping form and a thought came to mind. I felt my face become very hot. He is asleep, what's the harm? I slowly bent down and planted a soft kiss on his forhead. His fur was soft to the touch and I felt a small shiver go up my spine. I quickly pulled back and it suddenly dawned on me what I had just done. I gasped and quickly ran to my bedroom, trying to forget what I had just done.
