Jason Takes Equestria
Chapter 7 The Request
Previous ChapterJason was fast asleep in his bed, in a room that only had the bare essentials lining its walls.
Suddenly, a bright light pierced the inky darkness and filled the room with its blinding presence, which woke him from his peaceful rest.
Looking upon the figure who was emanating the heavenly light, Jason recognized the small form of Angel Bunny, floating in midair with robes that danced in a nonexistent breeze, along with long flowing golden hair.
Before Jason could even think of questioning the situation, Angel grasped him by the hand, snatching him up from his place of slumber.
Then Angel took him on high, and higher still, until they moved in the spaces betwixt the air itself.
And Angel brought Jason onto a vast farmland, that seemed to have no end, somewhere in Equestria's Heartland.
And as they descended, cries of impending doom rose from the fertile soil.
A thousand, nay a million wailing voices filled with dread and despair.
And terror possessed Jason then.
And he begged. "Oh Angel of the Fluttershy, what are these tortured screams."
And Angel said on to him. "These are the cries, of the carrots. Fore, you see brother Jason, tomorrow is harvest day. And to them, it is, The Holocaust."
And Jason sprang from his slumber, drenched in sweat like the tears of a million terrified brothers, and roared.
"Hear me now! I have seen the light! They have a consciousness! They have a life! They have a soul! Damn you! LET THE RABBIT'S WEAR GLASSES! Save our brothers!"
*Ahem*
That's when a familiar voice cut into Jason's ravings.
This caused him to turn and look for the sound, only to find himself standing in a grassy field encircled by trees.
There was a starry sky high above with the full moon illuminating these new surroundings in its pale light.
Confusion graced his masked face as he looked about at not only this new sight but also the source of the voice from before.
"You have quite the odd dreams, if I do say so myself." The voice commented as the moons glow grew brighter, causing him to shield his eyes and squint as the hole opened in the celestial body.
After it grew to a large enough size, the princess of the night and guardian of the dreamscape stepped forth, clad in her usual royal raiment.
Jason was rather astonished to see the lunar alicorn, not to mention her strange entrance into his presents.
"Dreams?" He questioned while watching Luna float down to a soft landing on the ground.
"Indeed. This is not but a dream of your unconscious mind. I normally abstain from entry into others dreams, lest of course they might be experiencing a nightmare, to which I will step in and help by taking the reins as it were. But I digress."
Luna drew close to Jason as he took a knee in respect while crossing an arm over his chest.
Once she was close enough, she placed a hoof on his shoulder while looking him in the eye.
"I have come here this night to ask a favor of you. I have received a letter asking for aid from a young mare whose father has gone missing. The Police have found no clue for the cause of his disappearance or suspects for that matter. She is at her wit's end in worry and sot out my help. I however cannot find him in the dream realm. That is why I have come to you."
Lighting up her horn, she made a small orb appear, which showed some of Jason's memories of him using 'Sense'.
"You may be able to succeed, where others have failed so far. I will not force you to do this, but you would be a great help for a good cause."
Jason only had to think for a few seconds before responding. "I'll do what I can to help."
Luna bowed her head slightly in gratitude. "You have my thanks. I will inform the others in their dreams as well of the situation this night."
Jason nodded back to the lunar princess before adding. "I'm just glad you're not here to scold me about fighting with Discord as well."
This cause Luna's eyes to widen.
She then pressed her face against his, while peering into his eyes.
"Truly?! You had done battle with the former lord of chaos?!"
Jason rubbed the back of his neck and grinned sheepishly.
"Yeah, Kinda."
After Jason's admittance, Luna stepped back.
"Would it be alright for me to look into your memory to see for myself?"
"Yes, of course you can."
Luna leaned in, placed her horn on his head, then after a short while broke out in loud raucous laughter.
"Oh, oh my word."
Luna was finally able to speak after her outburst.
"I Must let mine sister know of this as soon as possible. After I get the different points of view from Maiden Fluttershy and Maiden Applejack as well."
She wiped a stray tear from her eye.
She tapped him on the shoulder while saying, "Well fought." Before opening another portal and walking through it.
"Now I return you to thine rest. May your dreams be pleasant, and many thanks in advance."
Luna lowered her head slightly in thanks as the portal closed behind her.
After a moment or two, Jason laid down on the grass to look up to the night sky, thinking of nothing and enjoying the beautiful view.
Tomorrow will be a lot of hard work but that would wait till he woke up.
For now, this was how he wished to pass his time.
Author's Note
Sorry for the short chapter this time. I feel the next chapter is going to be quite the long one and I wanted to put in the obscure reference at the being. its pretty much a word for word rip-off from the beginning of the Tool song 'Disgutipated' but I thought it was funny.
Anyway, next chapter, Hoooooo!
