Time 1:03 P.M
I take one last look at Misty before I close the bathroom door. Looking at her I see her beautiful smile as she happily reads a book. I smile as I close the door and start undoing straps on my armour. The bathroom is pretty big and fancy. Its all pristine and clean. Guess the maids take their job seriously on of account how ungodly clean it is. The tile is a nice white leading up to the sink/counter with a nice big mirror above it. I take off my helmet and set it down on the counter and lean the rifle on the wall. I look down at my arm with the pip boy on it. Funny thing really I haven't used it since the diamond dogs fiasco. I bring my arm up and start switching thru the menus on it. Map hardly has anything discovered, the health screen shows that I'm all good. I switch over to the inventory screen to see that it list stuff in my backpack, Mainly my drinks and stimpacks. I take off the back pack and put it down and low and behold the items go away. What mainly confuses me is the Ammo situation though. The numbers keep glitching out so I can't read it. O well. I'll have to figure it out later. I continue to take off the armour and stop after taking off my jeans. Looking down at my leg I can see a scar from when I got hit from the arrow. Note to self stimpacks leave scars. I finish stripping and run my hand down my face as I look at a huge shower. Another note I think to my self, have to shave soon so this 5'o clock shadow doesn't grow. I turn on the shower and step in.
Twenty minutes later I open up the bathroom door to see Misty still reading the book. She looks up at me with a confused look.
"I thought you wanted to get clean but yet you put on the same clothes." Misty says.
"Yeah I don't have any thing else at the moment but at least the I can leave the rifle and backpack here for now." I reply to her as I approach the door and wave her to follow.
Misty closes her book and gently opens up her wings and glides off the bed, "Where are we going?" She asks me.
I open the door and walk out with her. "Anywhere but here. I'm a ranger and we are always mostly on the move unless if our tasks needs us to wait." I say to her as we walk down the hallway.
"But won't we get into trouble for walking around here?" Misty asks as she tries to hide behind me as we pass guards and maids. We turn a corner and come to another hall.
"To my knowledge no one told me to stay in the room and if some one does have a problem with it we'll just go back." We walk down the hall to another turn where at the end I can see two guards guarding a door. Misty still has a look of concern on her face as we approach them as. The guards look at me as I stop next to them. "Excuse me but how do I get to the courtyard from here?" I ask them as Misty's eyes widen to the size of dinner plates.
"This is the throne room. You have to turn left instead of right at the end of the hallway. Then it'll be on the left side a few doors down." The white unicorn on the left said.
"Thank you sir. Next time I should just wait for the maid." I thank him. Misty's face has scrunched up all cute in confusion.
"No fun to wait though when you can explore. Getting lost is the fun part." The grey unicorn on the right chimed in.
"You got that one right sir." I salute them. "Gentlemen" I say as they salute back. I turn around with Misty and head for the garden. She follows but looks like she has something to say.
"How did you do that with out them being mad for talking to them?" She asks as she follows me down the hall.
"Just approach and engage with people with respect. If they couldn't talk they would've stayed silent or told us they couldn't. As long as your nice and respectful they wouldn't be mean." I say as we reach the door to outside.
"It's just that ponies tell stories of ponies getting in trouble with them and being arrested for doing something." Misty says as she looks outside at the courtyard. The courtyard is huge with a main pathway down the middle, with a hedge maze on one side and a garden on the other. We walk down the pathway over to some statues.
"Misty as long as your nice and respectful to people who aren't doing any harm or anything bad. Then people will be more accepting of your presence." As we walk I look at the statues. Some are different creatures while some are pony heroes if I had to guess. My favorite one was of a unicorn with a pointed hat and long beard. It just screamed I'm a wizard and don't you doubt that. We walk to a bench and sit down opposite side of the weirdest one yet. It was a tall being with different animal body parts confidently standing there. "Misty do you know what that thing is suppose to be?" I ask her. She must of been in thought since she was confused at first.
Misty stares at the statue for a second than talks. "O. That must be Discord who plunged Equestria into chaos before being beaten by the princesses." She proudly says. Looking at it my hand tightens around my revolver as I unholster it.
I aim the revolver at it. "Do you think some one would be mad if I shot off that stupid goatee?" I ask Misty as I aim at the goatee. She laughs. I smirk as I re holster the revolver as animals come to check us out. Misty gets all excited and is about to go get them but I stop her. "If you want animals to come to you, than you have to be calmly and slow. They have to get the courage that you wont hurt them." Misty nods her head as we watch all types of birds land next to us. Robins, Bluejays, some finches, mainly all the pretty ones.
Misty slowly got down off the bench and sat down on the grass when some bunnies came out to see what was happening. In a few minutes The bunnies where playing with Misty. Next a brown and white fox comes out and jumps onto my lap. It watches Misty with me while I pet it. Out of everything that has happened so far, This will defiantly be one of the best.
