Ghost slowly came too to the smell of a sterile room, yet the smell of illness also lingered in the air. The sound of a heart beat monitor was also heard. Also the bed was uncomfortable and felt something in his arm. Yup he was in the hospital. He slowly opened his eyes to see that yup, he was right. He also saw Daring in the chair next to the bed. It looked like she was reading, but she had a pen in her hand, nope she was writing. It looked like she in the middle of writing the next novel since she wasn't in the middle of anything nor had anything else to do. She was probably worried too and that took her mind off of it. Though Ghost decided to play a very cruel joke on her. He took off the sensors for the heart monitor, which made the machine do a static tone.

Of course Daring quickly went over to him, "Ghost!" Shaking him a bit in a panic as she fears he just died. Though her fear turned to anger when after three shakes Ghost scared her by quickly grabbing her arms and popping awake. She screamed a little and tried to pull away as Ghost just laughed. "That wasn't funny! Don't do that to me!" She said sternly and upset at him for scaring her like that.

"I'm sorry, but I just couldn't help myself but to have a little fun." Ghost said as he finally stopped laughing at a successful mission. Shortly after that two nurses walk in, apparently hearing the event decided to investigate to make sure things were fine.

"I see you are awake." The one said checking his physical responses and abilities while the other reviews the charts and graphs.

"Awake and alive." Ghost replied with a soft smile. Daring sat back in her chair grumbling to herself about Ghost's bad prank.

"The doctor will be in soon to see you. Though please refrain from messing with the medical equipment if you can help it." The nurse replied hooking the monitor back up.

"I'll try my best, but no promises." Ghost replied in a joking tone. The nurse simply left along with the other one. They didn't think that was funny (it wasn't). Ghost then turned to Daring, "What you working on? The next novel of the series? A new series perhaps? I hope it's the latter. I can picture the title already, Ghost of Daring Do. Has a nice ring doesn't it?"

Daring couldn't stay mad, Ghost just had a way to defuse situations, plus after the fact, his prank was good. "It's not a new series, but yes, I am creating the next one. Though that is a nice title for the book. Might use it." Daring replied.

"How far into it have you gotten?" Ghost asked, trying to take a sneak peak of what she has. Daring didn't try to hide the book or even really care if he saw it, since it was the rough draft anyway.

"To the part where we met at the inn after you beat the bandits the night we met." Daring replied. She had about seven pages down, but obviously had a lot more to put in, plus the adventure is yet to be over. She was just getting the beginning in and playing catch up to the current events while they were mostly still fresh in her mind.

"Still got a ways to go I see." Ghost replied looking around a bit more at the room. It was a traditional hospital room, small tube TV mounted way too high and bland colors.

Just then the doctor arrived to check in on Ghost now that he was awake. "You were in a bit of a rough shape, though based on what we saw from your physical and from some of the scans, you have been through worse than this." The doctor commented reading through the chart again.

Ghost chuckled a little, "Hey, give me a knife, some alcohol and a lighter I would have had that bullet removed in no time. But lay it to me straight, how long will you hold me hostage?" He noticed the doctor was in a bit better mood than the nurses were. As Ghost caught a slight grin from the doctor.

"Field medicine, that would explain some of it. What kind of training do you have?" The doctor asked in return, a bit curious on how this strange being knew how to patch himself up at home correctly, though not recommended.

"Was trained to survive, even in areas where proper medical practices were not available. So I was trained on how to keep myself alive. Cutting out bullets with my own knife was one such procedure that I've done to myself a few times. And yes, it goes above a ten on the pain scale." Ghost replied, adjusting himself a bit in the bed.

"Well, that's interesting. Good news though, you'll most likely get out today. Though we didn't find any insurance information for you. Do you have any or do you plan on paying out of pocket?"

"I got bits, in the travel bag, my occupation pays well, but lacks the ability to have insurance. Just make sure I get the bill before I get out the door." Ghost replied, flipping around some of the channels on the TV, nothing good, just soap operas. Those were boring and way too much drama. Like seriously, way too much goes on for a small town. Also, why does hospitals only have those to watch?

"Alright, I'll just mark you as self pay for future reference." The doctor adds a note and puts the clipboard down. "I'll let the nurses know that you are able to be released when you feel ready." He adds before leaving the room.

Daring in the mean time was writing slowly, mostly listening in on Ghost and the doctor. Talking about field medicine was mildly interesting to her. Using a knife to extract a bullet seemed really odd, and dangerous. Though as Ghost stated, sometimes hospitals or clinics are unavailable so got to take measures to your own hands to stay alive. in his case, that must happen more than not. "What did he mean by you knowing field medicine explained a few things?"

"I have old injuries that never healed right. Broke my leg once but I just splinted it and walked on it for three days before giving it proper rest. So the bone never healed right. On top of the fact as you may have noticed, I am littered in scars of varying degree. Some of those didn't heal like they should have either. Stuff that shows up when hospitals do evaluations." Ghost replied. Showing off a few on his arm, some of those scars looked like the cuts were deep initially.

"They told me that your injuries were quite serious. Loss of blood, possible infection, maybe permanent damage. They had me really scared for your life." She replied, though looking at his arm closer, it seems he endured more than a bullet before.

"Stopping excessive bleeding is the key, a bullet usually doesn't cause that, as it seals the wound partially. Infection is still possible if you don't treat it before sealing it. As stated, already have a femur that never healed right, so what more could a bullet do?" Ghost was making a few good points. Control the bleeding and the situation goes a lot better and everything else is just common sense. Even for those not really involved in medicine.

The nurses from before came back and had Ghost's attire that he had from before. Though cleaned from the blood that stained them. Though Ghost could tell they still didn't like the stunt from earlier. "Still bitter over a harmless prank. Come on you guys are worse than Daring, at least she found it funny after it was over." Ghost commented.

"Just get into your clothes and leave." The one said, sternly.

"I can see why you don't get invited to the parties." Ghost said softly, mostly for Daring to hear rather than the nurses. He took the clothes and went into the restroom to change back into them. Soon enough he was out. "Feels good to be back in some good clothes. Too bad I have to patch these later." He stated looking at the hole in the pants where he was shot earlier.

Daring was up too and was looking at the bill. Ghost glances at it, "Thanks Ahuizotl for paying my medical bill." He says as he notices the bill is three thousand flat. The exact amount he was bought for several days ago. Ghost preps the money, gets his belongings all rounded up and heads to the front desk with Daring to pay the bill. He was a bit surprised that it was this cheap, but then again, magic, different currency, it all works differently.

Soon enough the bill is paid and Ghost and Daring resume their trip back towards Ponyville. Which Ghost estimates to be about another two or three days travel. But Daring's house is only about a day's travel from where they are now. So of course she speaks first, "Want to rest up at my place? It's not too far from here." She says a little softly. She just invited a guy to her house. Sure guys have been to her house, but they weren't there to spend quality time with her, or were invited to her house. Besides, what all would they do there? Daring started to have naughty thoughts come to her mind. Though some of them were things she kind of wanted to do while they were there. She started to blush a little and felt warm. Though quickly got snapped back to reality when she felt Ghost's hand wrap around her side. That is still something she is getting used too. Might not be that long till they are at either of their houses, but being a couple takes more than a few days to get used too.

Ghost didn't need to answer the question, at this point they could read each other good enough to tell the answer to questions like that and she knew the answer to this. He didn't mind spending an extra day at her place. After the last few days he had, being in a home would be a vacation for him. Besides, MRE's aren't all that great for daily meals. Sure they work in a pinch, but getting a real meal is always preferred. Ghost definitely knew that Daring had better quality stuff at her place that could be used to make a half decent meal. Sure she probably would have volunteered to cook for him, but cooking was one of the few things he enjoyed doing, probably because it was a skill that wasn't combat related. Plus it was one that more than one would enjoy.

With that they both headed towards her house. Not much was said between the two, but that was okay. They simply just enjoyed the peace and quiet that they had and each other. That was how it was for most of the trip. Just the two of them walking together in silence while enjoying the company of the other. Daring leaning firmly on Ghost, of whom had his arm around her side. Though at one point Daring actually raised his hand and it was on her left breast, with her hand on top of his. Sending a clear enough message to Ghost she wanted his hand where it was. So, naturally he gave her a gentle squeeze. It was squishy, a tad more than he remembered. He did recall he made her lactate a few days ago. The strong blush on her face was also a bit of evidence that reminded of him of that. As he noticed after a few more gentle squeezes her shirt began to feel damp. Yup, she leaked when he started to tease her.

To her surprise he found a small clearing out of the way and took her over to it, before taking off her top layer of clothing. She leaned against a tree afterward and he straddled her. She was too horny to fight against his early advancement on her, plus she sort of started this when she put his hand on her chest. Which was exposed in front of him. He then started to suckle on her left nipple and as soon as he did that she gasped and moaned, wrapping her hands around his head as he pleasured her and relieved her. Her chest felt a tad tight where she started to produce. Feeling him suck the milk was exactly what she needed right now. She moaned happily as the tension in her left breast died slowly and in a very pleasuring manner. Then the right one got the same thing. Though it took a second to start squirting milk into his mouth. She welcomed this eagerly and well, now she found an excuse to lure him to the bedroom when she felt like it. Though chances are her body would be the one doing the demanding.

To both of their surprises was how easy she could lactate. Ghost had little effort put in and her body was spilling milk out. All the more pleasuring to Daring, as how softly he was sucking on her was highly pleasuring. Also since she was producing in higher volume since the last time both of them were enjoying this for longer. Twenty minutes total. Though by this time, Daring was too horny to stop. She gave Ghost a deep kiss of lust when he had finished draining her bust of it's contents. During this time she shifted to where they were laying down now, she was under him. Though after the kiss, she gave him the look that told him she wanted him to take her.

Unable to resist her charm Ghost began to undress and finished undressing her. Then he wasted no time in giving her what she wanted most. His rod inside her body. Which happened in a few moments. They both gasped in pleasure as they felt each other. Though Ghost knew she really wanted this when she pushed her hips against him, to take him deeper and to get him in her faster. He wasted no time and started thrusting. Getting himself deep inside her, once he did that he kissed her deeply. Which she kissed back, wrapped her arms around his back and wrapped her legs around his hips. He wasn't given much room, but had plenty to please his mare. Though he found a good medium pace really made her moan, so that obviously was the rhythm that made her body happy, so he stuck to it. Though because of it she had to break the kiss to get deeper breaths. Not that Ghost cared, he started to kiss her neck, moaning as he did so. Though this made Daring moan more and pant harder.

In this position Daring never felt him so deep before, he was really scratching that itch of hers and she was loving it. She wanted it, now more than ever. Feeling his body slap against hers as they edged each other closer and closer to their absolute limits. For some reason she wanted to outlast him. She wanted him to release before she did. That was her goal and she was trying her best to achieve it. Though it was going to be hard as Ghost was really working her over. His pace was doing wonders, along with how deep he managed to get into her. Hitting some new real estate this time around. His kisses were magical too, feeling him moan into her neck during his kisses was overwhelming. Feeling his body grind against hers each time he thrusted into her. This was going to be the hardest goal she ever set for herself. As despite how motivated she was, her body was ultimately in control and it didn't care what her goals was. It was being edged closer and closer to a climax whether she wanted it to or not. Obviously she did, but she wanted to hold out till Ghost started pumping first. That was the end goal and was unsure if her body would let it happen.

Daring felt so magical, the first time was amazing, but this was even more so. Probably because of how really into it they both were getting. Daring was putting more work into this than the first time, which was mostly laying still and letting Ghost do all the necessary work. Not this time. Daring was putting a decent amount more into this session. Which was making Ghost get closer and closer to his limit all the more faster. If her sex wasn't soaked, it was now. Which it was pretty wet when he started, all that teasing and pleasure traveling from her chest got her lower section all eager to get some attention. It was getting plenty now, if the wet slapping wasn't proof enough. She was still quite tight too. Something Ghost was hoping would stick around. It was something he was really liking.

Though soon enough they both hit their limits, at the same time. Both of them crying out their pleasure into each others neck. Both of them stayed firmly pressed against each other while they rode out their orgasms. Both Ghost and Daring ensuring that Ghost's serum was safely delivered deep into Daring's love cavity. Based on how tight her sex had gotten, plus the fact it was rigorously milking his shaft for every drop it could get from him. Meanwhile her snatch was draining fluids like a leaking faucet, though none of Ghost's fluids were in the mix, as he was just deep enough to be safe.

After a few minutes Ghost was finally done, though had no clue how much of his cum he managed to deliver to Daring. Though since he was in state of delivery for roughly five minutes, he imagined it was a sizable load. Though Daring kept him, both on and inside of her body despite him being done. She was riding out the aftermath and didn't want him to ruin the moment. So he decided to add to the moment, he kissed her deeply as his hands rubbed her sides. Her legs and arms in turn squeezed him tighter as she basked in everything. He couldn't help but smile to himself as he felt her cling to him with all her effort.

Daring was frustrated, just a second longer and she would have met her goal, though the intensity of her orgasm changed her tune quite quickly. She blanked out a moment from just how powerful the climax was. Lasting just a bit longer than Ghost's did. He felt really thick too, since she clamped down and still didn't fully relax yet. She also felt really full. His love was stuffed deep inside her right where she wanted it. Just as she was beginning to relax though, Ghost kissed her and rubbed her sides, sending a quick wave of pleasure over her body and she clung to him as a reflex action. Basking in this sensation for as long as she could.

After fifteen minutes, they both were satisfied and got redressed and finished the trip to her house. Getting there right about the time for bed. So, Daring unlocked the door, and took him to her room, where got undressed till no layer of clothing was on and climbed into the bed and cuddled each other before falling asleep in each others arms.
