Storming the castle

You are a light sleeper, a trait that you were always thankfull for, as it made it difficult for anything to creep up on you while you were sleeping. But now you were wide awake, and somepony is in your room.

Ok it wasn't so much your room, as it was the room you were currently staying in. Princess Celestia insisted that you stay at the palace, at least until your memories returned.

You still remember everything that happened that night, but when Celestia asked you about what happened between you and Luna, you just couldn't bring yourself to tell her that you practically molested her little sister, and then spied on her sex dream. So instead you did what any other sane person would do under these circumstances, pretended to have amnesia. You were pretty sure she knew that you were lying, but she seemed to be playing along anyway.

The sky was clear and the stars were twinkling brightly, but despite it's many windows, the room was dark. much too dark for this hour of the night, were was the moon? By now the world should be bathed in its gentle glow, it's silvery light comforting all sleaping creatures, and reassuring them that they haven't been forsaken to wander in darkness.

You lie there motionless in your bed, staring into the dark, as one green cat like eye stared right back at you.

"Hello...?" You say aloud, more of a question than a greeting realy.

There is no reply, only silence.

Fear begins to creep up on you, and you begin to imagine all sorts of terrors lurking in the darkness.
You can't help but laugh a little at yourself, you haven't been afraid of the dark since you were a small boy. Surely your mind was playing tricks on you and the "eye" was nothing more than a reflection, a bit of something shiny, or maybe just the glow of some residual magic. You decide to investigate. Casting off your blanket you stand up, slowly the eye's gaze drifts lower across your chest and stomach stopping below your waist, starring at your crotch. Modestly you cover yourself with both hands and sit back down, suddenly embaresed about sleeping naked, and no longer of the belief that the "eye" was a figment of your imagination.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, you continue to stare at the eye.

The eye continues to stare back at you.

"Alright I've had my fun" says a feminine voice from the darkness.
A match is struck, and you can now see the face that belongs to the "eye". Eyes typicaly came in pairs. Now you know why there was only one. A deep scar ran across her face, her dark berry colored mane covered most of it but you could still see that her right eye and part of her cheek is covered by a patch of leather. Somehow despite her missing eye and scared face she still seemed to possess some sort of otherworldly beauty.

"Ouch! dammit!" She cried out. While trying to light a gaslamp the match had burned down and singed her hoof.

"Here, allow me" you say standing up and lighting the gaslamp for her. Once the wick was lit, you turned the knob on the side of the lamp to adjust the flame, bathing the room in a warm glow.

She was looking at your crotch again. Instinctively you cover yourself with your hands, and she raises the small arbalest that she was currently holding to point at your chest. You raise your hands above your head in a gesture of surrender. She blushes a little and her gaze drifts down to your crotch again. You decide it was probably best to cover yourself again, slowly this time.

"Pants, top drawer, put em on, NOW!" She says pointing her deadly projectile weapon at the wardrobe and then back at you, still blushing a little bit.

You open the drawer and sure enough all of your clothes were there, washed and neatly folded, the maids must have done it while you were bathing.

Her watchfull gaze never leaves your body as you hurriedly get dressed. Even when your toes get caught inside of your pants leg and you tumble backwards she never looks away. Normaly you'd be a little more concerned about someone pointing an armour piercing weapon at you, but ponies were normally peacefull creatures so you weren't that worried about it.

Once you are fully clothed, You kneel before your tiny detainer and say, "we haven't been formally introduced yet, my name is Ignatius" you say extending a hand.

"Nuh uh, not happening, don't think I didn't see what you did to my marefriend" she replies, looking you in the eyes, and tightening her grip on her small arbalest.

You pull your hand back and stare at it, as if to ask it, what have you done this time? Damn thing seemed to have a mind of its own sometimes.

Just being polite clearly wasn't going to get you anywhere.

The pony pointed her weapon at the door and said "outside, now!"

The pushy pony was beginning to annoy you so you decided to do something about it.

You step towards the door and reach a hand out to open it like she commanded, she was standing a little to close, clearly having misjudged your reach. So instead of opening the door you spin on your toes and kick the arbalest from her hooves. The bolt whizzed past your head and impacted with the doorframe behind you before it magically exploded with a loud "kaboom!" as it showered you with debris.

As you pick yourself up off of the floor, the pony just stares at the shattered door and ruined doorframe with wide ~~eyes~~ eye, and says "Brandy is going to kill me"

You try to tackle the pesky pony, but she's fast and takes to the air on her leathery batwings. Landing on your back she wraps a foreleg around your neck in a chokehold, and begins repeatedly punching you in the face with her boney hoof.

"I, Gave, You, An, Order, Punk" she barks between punches. When she finaly stops hitting you, she lets your bruised face fall to the floor. Climbing off of you, she walks across the room to retrieve and reload her discarded weapon.

Laying face down on the floor you smile, ouch don't smile, hopefully the sound of that explosion will attract the attention of the guards and they will save you from this crazy pony. In fact you think you can hear the sound of their rapidly approaching hoofsteps already.

"What the meaning of-Oh Captain Shadow....do you require any assistance ma'am?" The leader of the four guards that just arrived asked.

You raise your head slightly off the floor and let it fall back down gently, ow, you were pretty much doomed at this point.

"Carry on, I can handle this soggy turd on my own" she replied giving you a firm kick in the ribs.

As the guards hurried back to their posts, Brandy Wine and a few maids arrived.

Maybe Brandy Wine could save you?

Brandy Wine didn't even look at your prone body as she gave her maid's orders. "Snowy and Maragold you two start cleaning up this mess, Summer Breeze you fetch the carpenter, and no running this time! Feather Duster you have the most experience cleaning up blood stains, so you get on that..." Brandy Wine said pointing a hoof at the puddle of blood that was still flowing uncontrollably from your broken nose.

Nope, Brandy wasn't going to save you.

"Oui" was Feather Duster's only reply as she painfully stepped on your body on her way past.

You seriously owed her an apology after all this was over.

"And you Candy Floss" Brandy pointed at the last remaining maid, "Since you can't find your missing mop bucket you can go fetch this poor idiot a physician" she said pointing at you.

"EEEP! right away ma'am" the maid said as she scurried away.

"And you Satin my love" Brandy said stepping over your body.

You scratched your head, figuratively, not actually. Truth be told you were still too scared to move as Captain Shadow had that exploding arrow pointed right at your poop deck. The maids and the guards had already left, who the hell was Brandy Wine talking to? You hadn't noticed anypony else in the room.

Captain Shadow fumbled the arbalest and hid it behind her back. It went off, fireing a bolt through the widow, breaking the glass, and exploding in the night sky like a dazzling firework.

"I love you more than the sun and the moon and all the stars in the night sky, I love you more than the four seasons, and time itself, hell I even love you more than I love chocolate, and you know how much I love chocolate." Brandy said affectionately rubbing against Captain Shadow.

"Brandy I'm sorry, I didn't mean for" Captain Shadow starts to say, blushing and looking down at the floor.

"Tsk tsk tsk" Brandy interrupts giving her marefriend a gentle peck on the lips. "You know i love you Satin Shadow, but you know how upset I get when you wreck my castle." Brandy says, sitting on her haunches and holding Satin Shadows cheeks in her hooves.

Somehow, Satin Shadows blush deepens to an even brighter shade of crimson

You wish that you had a mouth full of any kind of liquid so that you could do a spit take, but you didn't, so instead you slowly raise your hand and give them a thumbs up of approval. They realy do make a cute couple.

With a "pomf!" Satin Shadow's leathery batwings flapped up, as Brandy Wine gave the captain a deep, passionate, kiss on the lips. Breaking off their kiss, Brandy Wine gently nibbles on Satins ear before letting her marefriend slump to the floor, as the pupil of the captain's eye takes on the shape of a heart.

Brandy Wine walkes over to your body and whispers in your ear "I told you not to buck this up, your ass belongs to Satin now."
