Displaced: the grey eyes of the force

Four weeks have passed since the ‘duel’ and John has been repeatedly impressed by trixies devotion to his training and studies. Most due to his constant threats to turn her into a sex slave if she slacks, not that he would actually do it, he’s an ass not a rapist. She has in that time learned to channel the force and learned a few basics which she has made fair process, having reached an apprentice the basics of the force, push,pull, and lift.

It is this training that we find the two as John has her at his meditation pond where he is training her to trust her link to the force while he tosses rockets for her to dodge, while blindfolded. Of course it wouldn’t be his training if Trixie wasn’t stripped to her undergarments for this.

“Please tell me master mercer why is trixie naked for this? It’s embarrassing.” Trixie asked as she successfully dodged another rock.

“Simple the rocks are to hone your skills at detecting attacks, as for your current absence of clothes is to remind you every time your hit that it hurts but the next might be much more dangerous. That and I like how your tits jiggle, has anyone ever told you your hot. If you didn’t have that superiority complex you’d some man, Well stallion, a very happy man. And no I’ve seen your kinder side yes you can be.” He said as he hurled more rocks at different intervals.

“Why do you act so perverted to Trixie its dem…” Trixie began before doubling over from a well placed hit to the stomach by a rather large rock.

“Because it’s distracting and you need to learn to ignore it for you never know how or where you’ll find a fight, hell you could be in the middle of sex and robbers break in this will mean you’ll be distracting them while being focused yourself. Secondly it’s just too damn fun. Although I was telling the truth you should be proud of your figure, where I’m from there are world class supermodels who would kill for a body like yours.” John said as he stopped to help her over to the water which had been closed off to make a rejuvenation pool for when students needed a small break.

“Do you really mean it, does Trixie look desirable.” She asked as she slipped into the water its rejuvenating properties taking effect.

“Yes I will tell you now for the purpose of training. I know I’ve been mean and rather harsh with you, but it’s for your betterment.” John said as he stripped completely and entered the waters himself, much to the shock of Trixie.

“Master mercer not to sound rude but done you feel embarrassed by being naked around others?” Trixie asked avoiding looking to her mentor, a blush heavy on her face.

“Not in the slightest, back before coed communal baths and showers were normal after seeing so many naked you quickly lose your sense of embarrassment. That and when I get other students and you eventually start helping you’ll be the same.” He said as he took a hand full of the water and rubbed his face with it.

“Oh Trixie didn’t think of it that way, but what about minors?” She asked as she rubbed her arms.

“Simple they learn to find it normal that and it’s meant to be a lesson in and of itself. That once you strip down a person no matter their background they are no different than you.” He said as he inches closer.

Trixie was quiet after that as she thought back on what he said she was so focused on it she didn’t notice when he slipped in behind her until she felt him touch her which slightly startled her.

“Now Trixie i'll let you in on a secret.” He said wrapping his arms around her in a hug.” We’re being watched by six nosy mares and they all can see us play along and we can embarrass the hell out of them, what do you say?” He said quietly.

“Trixie say lets. She said as she backed closer

“Well trixie training is done for the day.” He said as he started rubbing against her.

“Oh master and what’s next?” Trixies spoke out in a blissful tone.

“Well since you have done so well I think you deserve a reward.” The grey lord said as he gently pretended to squeeze her breasts.

Trixie for her part played along phenomenally faux moaning and leaning closer.

“Oh master does that mean?” She asked as she turned around to look at him.

“Yes my pupil that means that YOU LOT SPYING CAN COME OUT NOW!!” John said before shout in the elements direction causing them to fall through the bushes in a heap each of them in varying states of embarrassment.

The two burst out laughing as they watched the group scramble back up to their feet none of them daring to look at the two who had stood up and leaving to concealing nature of the pool and approaching them, which made them all the more embarrassed.

“Well if it isn’t miss sparkle and co what brings you lot out this way I thought we weren’t scheduled another meeting till tomorrow?” John asked as he used the force to bring over the twos clothing for them to put on.

“W..w..well y..you see princess Celestia asked me to come and talk to you she was wondering if you would come up to canterlot. She was wanting to speak further on the matter of trade.” Twilight for the most par stammered out extremely embarrassed and somewhat turned on by johns nude form. A sentiment shared by the other elements as well.

“Well why didn't you just come out and announce you were her, why spy?” He asked as he put back on his undergarments and pants tying the cloth sash in place and leaving his shirt off.

“We thought you two were in the middle of something and didn’t want to intrude.” The librarian said still not looking in their direction.

“Oh that...that back there was a prank on you lot for creeping on us like that.” John said chucking as Trixie let out a chuckle of her own, the last four weeks had quickly imprint some of John's quirks to her as she settles in to the role she now plays.

The six upon realizing they were being messed with all shouted ‘what’ at the idea that the two had used something so perverted to mess with them.

“Yea and all of you fell for it hook line and sinker. Next time don’t spy and just come out otherwise the next time I’ll do worse, much worse.” John said hooking his utility belt and walking passed them towards ponyville.

after about thirty minutes of walking they arrived when they were passing through to the station for the train, John noticed he was getting a lot of interesting looks from many of the locals, mostly mares staring at him blushing and giggling to their friends, and many local stallions glaring at him, though there were a few who had a barely hidden longing look. Choosing to ignore it John focused on his student and the other mares following, John quickly notices three were sneak peeks at him mainly the farmer, the animal caretaker, and the pink one, although he prism haired pegasus would occasionally seek peeks as well , but stopped when she caught his gaze, blushed heavily and looked away with a scowl.

The wait at the station wasn’t long but it was tedious as many mares and a few stallions had tried to sneak a peek at John who was sitting eyes closed in meditation, trixie having seen her masters action was mimicking his actions while they waited for the train. When it did they all entered and found seats for the trip.

During the trip John quietly started discussing how to read minds with Trixie which immediately interested her and for the remainder of the ride was practicing by trying it in their companions, noting the various thoughts and secret wants they all had, what surprised her was the fact that her mentors mind was impossible to break into and every time she tried he would immediately push back.

Once they reached their destination John stepped out to see the gilded city on the mountains which to him wasn’t special.the trip to the castle was one of general silence as the The grey lord and his apprentice were lead by the elements to the castle all the while the ponies of canterlot watched, some fascinated by the strange being, others repulsed, and a few who seemed very interested for darker reasons, one of which was prince blue blood.

When they finally arrived the guards were immediately suspicious of John but relented when twilight showed them the summons from princess Celestia. The trip through the castle was even more boring for John as he really didn’t see the need for all of the gold inlays and fancy decorations. John was even less impressed when they entered the throne room, passing several nobles who were a bit miffed by them getting allowed to cut the line.

While they were ushered to the side as one noble was in the middle of a speech on how a orphanage was too close to his home and the children were becoming a hazard to his estate and ‘health’. Celestia, for the most part, had a neutral expression, John knew otherwise she would rather have him tossed out, something John was happy to oblige her with as he raised his hand and started lightly choking him with the force. The noble on the other hand quickly found himself short of breath and quickly gaining into out of oxygen. Ponies in the room all gasped as the noble fell to his knees grabbing at his throat gasping trying his beast to suck in the life giving air he so desperately needed. They all turned to the mystery figure who had his hand out in the direction of the noble and were shocked when he spoke.

“You know it’s bad manners to bore your host with pathetic drivel, why the good princess is almost asleep in her throne because of your incessant prattling. So why don’t you drop this and leave before she decides to have you thrown out, actually let me help you.” John said his facial features holding a bored, if slightly disgusted look.

The noble in question didn’t have time to respond as he was picked up by an unseen force and launched out of the throne room whose doors were opened shortly before he could be splattered the shouts of surprise and fear ringing as he landed finally able to breath but unconscious from the impact.

With his display done John turned to Celestia and bowed a smile on his lips when he righted himself.

“Pardon me princess but you looked so bored listening to him, if I was done with his nonsense after five minutes only you know what you were feeling after dealing with him for…” john stopped looking to the announcer for the time who responded with fifty minutes. “Ah...fifty minutes. You, your majesty have far more patience than any of us deserves.” He said bowing once again, at his words she adopted a serine smile, which caused all of the other nobles to look down at their papers and rethink their decisions the majority of which left as they decided theirs weren’t that important, the others choosing to wait and let Celestia have a break before trying to plead their requests which were steadily shrinking.

After the noble announced break for the princess was given and the throne room doors were shut both Celestia and John burst out laughing and kept on till both couldn’t hardly breath.

“Oh… haha oh shit that was golden! Haha wow I can't believe that worked.” John said between breaths.

“Oh...oh my… by my mother’s name that was wonderful.. thank you John I was close… so close to calling a break… just to get away...oh ha haha…. oh I needed that.” Celestia said as she picked herself up and walked down to meet the man who had given her some respite.

“Any time though seriously they come to you for that?..... wow are they all that conceded?” John asked as they entered a sitting room adjacent to the throne room.

“No most are but no there are a few who are good I just wish they all were.” Celestia said as she took her seat John sitting in the closest chair.

“Yes yes my best yet. But let’s get to why I’m here Twilight told me you wanted to talk trade. So what are your requirements and we’ll see.” John said as he leaned into the backrest of the chair.

“Well firstly, if we are getting down to business I’d like for my sister to be here she may have a list of things she may want to trade.” Celestia said as her horn flared.

A few minutes later her sister walked in, although her wardrobe was much different than when he first met her. She was now dressed in a pair of jogging pants with a to the moon t shirt that was big on her revealing her bra straps. Luna for the most part didn’t seem to register that John was in the room until Celestia mentioned to Luna about his presence. Once she did her light blue fur was tinted red and she teleported away returning a few minutes in a nice dress. John who wasn’t really bothered by her previous attire just shrugged and sit back to listen to their requests.

Most of what Celestia wanted was just simple things, farming equipment, better transport means, things I was willing to deal with. Luna on the other hand was more interested in more combat oriented items, mainly weapons, something I wasn’t too keen on doing as all of it was one too advanced and two extremely powerful. Luna basically was looking to pull an extreme makeover of their guards., mainly I think she thought that with my kind of weapons they would have some kind of leverage or means to fight me.

“Celestia yours is the easiest by far as the trains, where used in the galaxy are by far exponentially more powerful and durable that your current, not to mention faster I can have platforms built and lines done fairly quickly. Your second just as easy auto tillers and seeder bots as well as caretaker droids are rather easy to produce when I talked to zeke last we had a couple thousand of them and had means to make more.” The grey lord said as he showed her 3D pictures of the various droids and machinery. “But if I do I need some things in return….Actually quick question how many orphanages are there in equestria?”

“Well I know If thirty in equestria why?” Celestia aske skeptical of his inquiry.

“Well I ties to my first request I’d like access to them one to find those gifted in a peculiar field I’m fluent in second so I can visit each, I plan to remodel them and make them more accommodating for both the youth and workers.” He said.

“Well I That is fine as long as nothing bad happens to them.” Celestia said confused.

“Nothing will I’ll admit at times I can be mean but well children hold a soft spot in my heart, and my order generally looks through various orphanages for those with the gift surprisingly we have found many gifted individuals that way.” John said revealing that tidbit to the two princesses.

“And thine other requests? Surely that isn’t thine only request.” Luna said as she sat forward.

“No my second I raw resources, mainly metals. My current stores on my ship are low and I need to get more resources to replenish them. If you have an area I can mine I’ll just have an acclimator starship set down and deploy several mining droids and clones to oversee it.” John said as he looked at a real-time over view from the ships sensors.

“Yes that would be acceptable the forest surrounding your current domiciled has a few areas that would be perfect for you to mine I’ll have a map brought to you later with the areas. Now we’re there any other requests?” Celestia asked her horn flaring and a message sent.

“Yes one hundred mares. Specifically for sex.”John said smiling.

At this the twos head turned to look at him flabbergasted looks on their faces. Johns smile got bigger at that and he burst out laughing.

“Oh...ha haaaa…. oh god…. your faces...hehehoho...oh that was priceless!” Johns choked out.

The two remained silent while the grey lord had his laughing fit and once he calmed down. Upon doing so he saw that they were not laughing.

“What?…. seriously you thought I was serious?...” he asked the two who both nodded. “It was a joke… wow ok from here on out if I make a comment like that consider it a joke… damn.”

“ I would ask that you refrain from making said comments please as there are factions here on Equis that make those demands, often.” Celestia said in a serious tone.

“Really? Wow okay not going to get along with them then. I may joke but I deeply despise fuckers who actually do it.” John said a surprised look on his face, eyes wide and eyebrows raised. While typing a memo to himself to find out who and bomb them into oblivion. “Yes well back to the request Luna beyond a few minor and basic shock sticks I can’t openly give you super advanced weapons, that would be like handing an infant a thermal detonator and not expecting it to eventually flip it and blow itself up. Sorry I won’t be responsible for that.” He finished.

“Wouldst thou be willing to supply our guards with those knowledgeable in the use and handling of thine armaments?” She ask not entirely satisfied with his answer.

“Yes I could but you have to realize I do and everyone on this rock will want them and again let me reiterate i'm not going to be responsible for global annihilation.” John said pronouncing the last bit.

Luna for her part wasn’t happy but understood why he wasn’t willing. She knew there were nations that have been looking for anything vilify equestria to the other nations, especially over technology. Nodding she let it slide.

“Now on that note I can however do a demonstration of just how powerful they are all that needs doing is to ask and set up a place for the demonstration.” John said tilting his head back in contemplation.

“What?” The two regents aske simultaneously.

“Hmm What Sorry was deep in thought though I may talk out loud when I do. Sorry.” He said giving a wink.

“Well Sir mercer we would like to formally request a demonstration of thine weapon capabilities, if thine would would indulge us that is.” Luna asked

“Small arms sure not to day I’ll need to get a selection together and find an area where no one could possibly get hurt.” John said as he stood up. “Well I think we’ve covered enough for now I’ll let you two head on and what you need I’ll see myself out and see the sights.” He added opening the door to see his pupil and the others talking, which died down as the doors opened looking to John She mentally sent an inquiry which responded with a motion of his head for her to join him. When she did the two headed back the way they came as the elements stayed behind to talk.

Once outside John took a deep breath and released it as a groan before shaking his head and turning to his pupil.

“Tell me are you familiar with this city? There are a few things and places I’d like to look into while here.” He stated watching his student.

“Yes Trixie if fairly familiar with canterlot what would you like to find?” She asked curiously.

“Well I feel my self in need to do a good deed so let’s find a orphanage I’m going to become a downer to might pick up a few younglings if they are like us.” John said as he motioned for her to lead.

Their trek was a smooth one none of the local nobles were brave enough or foolish enough to bother him or his student so they made excellent time to the first place on their to do. The canterlot home for orphan fillies and colts. Upon arriving Trixie became hesitant.

“Something the matter my pupil? I sense a flux in your demeanor and your emotions.” He said stopping.

“No maste trixie is fine it’s just Trixie has done shows for the fillies and colts here before and didn’t ingratiate herself with one of the matrons of the house.” Trixie said frowning as she notices the dilapidated look of the place something her master wasn’t to happy with.

“That will not matter if she has a problem then I’ll handle it.” John said as he moved to open the door to enter motioning for her to follow. When they entered they immediately felt a massive shift in the air as if an oppressive shadow was looming over them.

The matron at the desk was a polite mare who was willing to talk with them over his proposal, and while interested in the idea she admitted that it would need an approval from an government official which John provided her with in the form of an official crown letter of approval. With that he mentioned that he was looking into the children as he felt several tiny flickers in the force, he told her he was looking into them for a special school where they will be trained to the fullest extent of their abilities, something he mentioned to the mare was on the letter as well.

The mare for her part just nodded and lead him to where all of the children were, and subsequently the other matron who wasn’t as thrilled as her compatriot was. When he mentioned that he was powerful and mentioned his planned she got a little bit more polite. Stepping out for John to speak to the children, who at that point were curious.

“Good day children my name is grand master warden John mercer and I am here to inform you some of you will be privileged to attend a special school I oversee where you will be taught special skills, now only a select number will be able to. For that I need you to all form a grid for me, and when I tap you, you will need to make your way to the front of the room afterwards you will have a one on one cover about attending, without further ado let’s begin.” John said as the kids all made a grid.

It took him half an hour to find all of force sensitive children in the orphanage, a total of ten out of the thirty children, at least the ones who’s ties to the force were strong he pulled have to keep tabs on the others who’s links were not fully developed.

After the ten were ushered out of the room to the hall the matrons both went back in to handle the rest while John had Trixie Wait with the nine as he brought the young earth pony colt he chose from them for the interviews...
