Brave swordsman

Vargas pov

I sighed as I leaned back into the bench as Twilight read a book beside me. "Why do we have to deal with a Kolbolt hoard." The train shook, and Twilight fell into my side. She pushed herself back up and looked at me.

"You took out two manticores, and Kolbolts are ranked around the same level, given the size of the Kolbolt. So since you killed two of them, you and I were picked to deal with them along with some of the local guards and a local adventurer. Besides, the guild master told us to do it."

I sighed as I leaned back into the seat as looked out the window. "Twilight, what do you think of this life?" She looked up from her book and looked at me. She seemed interested in the topic.

"Well, it's never boring, and sometimes people find rare or unknown materials. Some even find lost magic books or magic crystals with some weapons here and there. So, I guess the best way to answer the question is that I like the idea of finding something rare or incredible items. Like the tree of harmony that became my castle."

I nodded as she sat there and looked at me, expecting. "Guess it's my turn. Well, I guess I'm doing this as a way to make money. I don't really want much beyond the means to survive. I don't need anything fancy or want anything fancy. I have no family or extended kinfolk. So, I really have no reason beyond survival." Twilight looked up at me for a second, then frowned as she looked at me.

"You have no family at all?"

I nodded as the train shook again, making her fall into my side again. She pushed herself back up as she spoke.

"How can you be all Alone? Surely you have some family left somewhere?"

I was getting annoyed knowing I couldn't tell her I was ripped away from my home. I looked down at her, and she stopped as she looked in at me. "Drop it," I spoke through gritted teeth, and she shut up and moved away from me a little, then opened her book again. I sighed as I leaned back into the seat. I noticed some of the people on the train were looking at us. I huffed as I looked back to the large window to watch the landscape going by.

"Sorry."

I sighed as I looked over to Twilight as she looked at me out of the corner of her eye. "You're fine; I just really don't like to think of it." She nodded then was quiet as she read in the book. I looked at her for a second, then raised a hand, catching a train employee's attention came walking over.

"Yes, sir?"

I pointed over to Twilight and spoke. "Please bring her a cup of sweet tea, and if you don't mind, a cup of coffee for me." I pulled out the bits and gave her a tip. She took the bits then walked off to get what I asked for. After a few minutes, she brought us the drinks as well as a few little cakes. I took the tea and one of the cakes and passed them to Twilight. She thanked me and pulled down a table on the wall. I nodded, took my coffee and cake, stood up, and then walked over to the small table. I sat them down and set the cake to the side as I picked up the coffee cup. I sipped the life-giving drink as Twilight used her fork to cut some off some of the cake. The rest of the ride was quiet, as neither of us seemed to want to talk.

"We are now arriving at Baltemare, home of Equestria's deepest iron mine."

We waited for the train to come to a stop and stood. As the doors opened, letting everyone pile out. I grabbed my sword from the other head then walked off the train behind Twilight. She pulled out a map from her side bag as she started to walk.

"We need to head for the main guard station before going to the guildhall."

I nodded as we walked, and I hefted the sword onto my back as Twilight started to talk to me.

"Do you think we could find anything interesting when we go to deal with the hoard?"

"Maybe, you never know what you may find."

She smiled, but it didn't last as a blast of air hit up, and I covered my eyes with my left arm and held onto Twilight.

"Get back here, thief!"

The air stopped, and I looked up to see a man flying with a set of wings being chassed by a woman dressed like a fucking sheep with a white fursuit with hoof-like shoes and horns on the sides of her head. She had bright blonde hair and light brown skin.

Damn, she's fast with those hoof shoes as she chased after him. She got close near the end of the street, then jumped, threw her legs around, and kicked him down to the ground. He crashed down, and she landed beside him, jumping around like a kid cheering I got him. Twilight looked at him, and she looked at her as she bounced around; then she grabbed him and dragged him over to a large building. We looked at one another, then looked down at the map seeing the building was the main guard station. "Fuck."

"Ya."

We sighed as we started to walk down the street and up to the station. We walked into seeing the woman standing there, filling out some paperwork with her ass sticking out with a small sheep tail on her waist. I could tell she had nice round cheeks and was well-toned muscles. I could see the sides of her abs as she leaned over. Her breast jiggled as she moved her arms around, and I blushed as I looked at her. I looked down at Twilight out of the corner of my eye, and she was glaring up at me.

"Pervert."

"What? I'm a guy; I can't help it." She huffed, then stomped on my foot, and I hissed as she walked over to the front desk's other side. I sighed then walked over to the seats. I took the sword off my back and sat down, sighing as I closed my eyes, arms crossed. I sat there for a few minutes, then a voice I didn't know spoke to me.

"Hey, handsome, your Vargas, right~?"

I opened my right eye seeing the sheep woman leaned over, looking at me, and saw the blue eyes behind her blonde hair. She grabbed the arms of the chair as she leaned in, a smile on her face.

"Your strong, I can tell. Those Kolbolts won't stand a chance with me, and you are leading the charge!"

She was jerked back and fell to the ground, and I looked up at an annoying Twilight glaring down at her.

"Stay away from Vargas; he's my partner!"

Twilight yelled down at her as she laughed then threw her legs up.

"No!"

She threw her legs and threw herself up, and she did a quick spin then landed on my lap, legs on my shoulder. I blushed, and she smiled as she crossed her arms and locked one leg around my neck. Twilight when to grab her again, but she grabbed her arm as she reached for her.

"I've been looking for my own partner, but everyone I've come across we're too weak and slow, but you look like you can keep up with me. Besides, I've never had a guy as my partner."

I was speechless, and she laughed as she let go of me; and Twilight then kicked off the wall and flipped, then landed perfectly in front of the door. She smiled as she gave me a wave and spoke in a sweet tone.

"See you soon~."

I was stunned, and Twilight looked like she was about to end the world, but a female guard spoke up.

"Wow, she's never paid a guy any attention. Maybe what I've heard about her family is true."

We looked at her, and she started to explain after looking at us.

"Her family is said only to be interested in guys who they see in visions, but it's supposed to be vague."

"What's that got to do with me?"

She smiled as he held out a file with my name on it. I took it, then opened it and saw the photo taken a little while after I became an adventurer.

"Normally, they have a vision when they're young, but she's only come to her not too long again, and she said she saw a man with a head full of fire-like hair with a massive red sword."

I nodded as I looked at the sword at my side. "I fit that perfectly, but she's too much. Hell, I don't even know her name, and she just acts like a damn…"

"Vargas!"

I shut my mouth as Twilight glared at me. "Anyways, is she really the only adventurer coming with us?" She nodded as she crossed her arms as looked at me.

"Ya, she's the only one with the experience and skill to take on these beasts. Most of our city's adventurers can't fight off the Kolbolts. With her alone, she's slowly been losing the battle to them when they attack the farms outside of the city."

I nodded, then sighed as I stood up and grabbed my sword as another guard walked up with a few files in his hands. Twilight took them; then, he held up a bag.

"Here are some healing potions and some cure potions as some of the smarter ones have poisoned-tipped weapons."

We nodded then walked out of the station. While we walked down the street, I noticed we were getting looked at by everyone. I ignored it, then we took a turn and saw the guildhall, and the sheep girl was sitting on the fence of the guildhall kicking her legs. "Fuck…"

"Great, she's waiting on you."

I looked down at her, and she huffed as she looked forwards, arms crossed as she walked. I sighed as we walked down the street, and she smiled as she saw us coming. She jumped up, then started to run over to me.

"Vargas!"

I put a hand up, and she smiled at me. I pulled my book out from my hip holster, letting it scanned her. The book flew open, and her image came up.

Heavy Hoof

Level 47

Hp 1010

At 615

Def 590

Rec 700

Special attack crushing hoof slam

I hummed, then nodded as I looked at her shocked face. I smiled, then closed the book, then set it back on my hip. I looked down at Heavy, then smiled, raised a hand, and then moved the hair out from in front of her eyes. I smiled as I looked right into her blue eyes. "Heavy Hoof, that name fits you nicely. But you really need to work on not coming on so strong. A pretty lady like you should act like a lady. Now, please go home, and we'll see you when we meet up to plan the attack on the kobolts." She blushed as she looked up at me, trying to say something, then nodded as she looked at me. I smiled, then let her hair fall back over her eyes. I could still see the red on her cheeks, then I patted her head, and she shoved me before taking off down the street. The hoof shoes making a clopping sound as she ran. I laughed as I watched her run away from me. "Can't believe that worked." I looked back at a surprised Twilight, who didn't seem to believe what she saw. I laughed as I grabbed her hand and started to walk again.

"How did you do that?"

I smirked as I pulled us up to the front door of the small guildhall. "When I did have a family, it was my grandmother and grandfather. They said if a girl ever started to act like a madwoman, just overwhelm them with kindness and a few compliments." Twilight didn't say another word as we walked into the guildhall seeing just a few people in old armor and weapons. They all looked at us and saw the newish armor I had on, and the silk robes and high-quality staff Twilight had. An older man behind the desk looked up from his newspaper and saw us. He smiled as he closed the paper as he stood, a smile on his face.

"Are you the loan-out adventurers from the main guild branch?"

I nodded as Twilight pulled out the letter with had from the guild master. She gave it to him, and he ripped the letter open. He pulled the letter out and started to read over it. He nodded his head a second later, then smiled as he looked at us.

"I'm glad to see a young couple like you two coming out here to help us. We have a few rooms in the back, but the heat is acting up, but the beds have thick comforters."

He reached down and grabbed a key, then held it out to me. I took it then we nodded to him as we started to walk to the room. The key had a four on it near the top. We walked down to the door with a four on it. I opened the door, and we saw a large queen-sized bed with a desk in the corner and a small bathroom on the sidewall to the right of the bed. I sighed as we walked in, and Twilight walked over to the bed and sat down. She looked at me for a second as I leaned on the wall noticing how cold this room was.

"So, I guess you're going to sleep in the bed with me tonight."

I looked at her, and she blushed as she looked me in the eye. "Would seem so." She nodded, then rubbed her arm, and she shook a little from the cold. I sighed as I took my sword off my back, leaned it against the wall, took off my top armor, and got my cape off. I walked over and wrapped it around her knowing it held heat well. She seemed happy as she held the cape tighter to herself. I took off the hip guards, then took my hip holster off. I set them off in the corner then sat down on the floor beside Twilight's legs.

"Does the idea of sharing a bed with me bother you still, Vargas?"

"We've talked about this Twilight."

She frowned, then I was covered in her magic. I was jerked back onto the bed, and I yelled in surprise. It was like being in the water as I felt it flow around me. She let me go, and I laid on the bed as Twilight looked back at me. She smiled with what looked like a victorious look in her eyes.

"See, that wasn't so hard, was it?"

I frowned, then sighed as I sat up, then sat my arms down on my crossed legs. "Well, you got me in bed, so…" She blushed, and I laughed as I looked at her. I nodded my head then ducked as she tried to hit me with her staff. I rolled off the bed laughing a little, then stood up.

"You're a jerk."

I blew a raspberry at her as she looked at me. I smiled as I sat on the edge of the bed, then pulled out my book. I opened the book then started to read over Heavy's information. I was a lower level, but I could take her in a fight if I had to, but it wouldn't be easy.

"Say, with a hoard, we may get the chance to find an egg."

I looked up from the book as she pulled a small book out of her side bag. She opened it to a page near the back and turned it to show it to me. There was a black egg with red lines going around it like lava. "I take it the eggs are worth a lot of money?" She nodded as she looked at me.

"They are, but most people chose to keep and raise the baby Kolbolts then sell them to the griffon kingdom for the meat."

I nodded before she closed the book and put it away. "If I get my hands on an egg, I'm keeping it for as long as it lives." She laughed, then rolled her eyes.

"Sure, you will, and you'll be the lucky one to find a blue egg kolbolt."

I gave her a looked, and she explained.

"A blue egg kolbolt is a super rare class of kolbolt. They grow rapidly with their level and are even capable of speck. Some even look like the dragonkin that work at you're home guildhall."

I smiled, then nodded as I closed my book. "That sounds good; I think I will find one."

She laughed, and I smiled as I looked up at the roof. She laughed, and I smiled as I looked up at the roof.

“Say, Vargas, I need to ask you something.”

“Hm?”

“If you never want to feel love, does that mean you never want to have kids?”

I looked at her, not sure what to say. “I’ve never given that any thought.” I crossed my legs as I rested my hands on my knees. “Well, adoption is always an option.” She nodded as she sat down on the foot of the bed, resting her staff in her lap. “What about you, Twilight? Do you want kids?” She blushed then turned away from me.

“I mean, one day, I would like to get married, but having kids is something else.”

I laughed as I uncrossed my legs, then got off the bed, and crouched down in front of her. She blushed as I smiled up at her. “Well, that’s a nice little dream, but I have a question for you, Twilight.” She looked at me red-faced as I smiled.

“Y-ya?”

“Do you want to be evolved too?”

She blinked as I stood up then grabbed my book off the bed. I turned back and saw she seemed to have calmed down a little; I sat down beside her and then turned to her page. “So, have you had a class up done before?”

“Ya, two times. I could have classed up at sixty-five, but I hadn’t had time.”

I laughed as I turned the back then tapped the circle, then pulled up her image, and saw evolution was available. I filled the required cores then I activated the circle. The energy came out, and Twilight moved back before the energy got her. A flash went off, making me cover my eyes. A few seconds later, the light faded, and I lowered my arm to look at her. My jaw dropped as I looked at her.

The woman sitting there was not the same woman I was talking with. Her hair was the only thing that was the same. Her tight purple shirt and shorts had changed to a skin-tight leather-like material. Her chest grew out like Gildas did but here only grew outsize or so. There were lines with a golden metal belt with a dark red gem with a half cape. Her arms had arm-length gloves with red gems at the elbow. Her legs had thigh-high legging with high heels at the end with stars over her feet and right on her thighs. She had a cape on with a red lining but had a star pattern on the outside. Lastly, her wooden staff had turned from a wooden staff with a small gem at the top to a metal staff with a massive star gem. "Holy…"

"I feel so strange."

“That will pass quickly. I felt it too, so let’s have a look at your new stats.”

“Ya, but can you help me up?”

I nodded, then reached down and grabbed her hand, then helped her up. She fell into me, and I helped her up and sat her down on the bed. I sat down beside her as she looked at the staff. I turned the pages then found her new image. I tapped it, and her image and stats came up.

Twilight Sparkle/ Princess of friendship

Level 68

HP 1870

Atk 1010

Def 890

Rec 990

Extra skill / Massive magic bombardment dealing 120% damage to all foes

“Holy, you’re new stats are on par with me.”

“What?”

I showed her the stats, and she looked shocked as she grabbed the book.

“What!? My hp went up nearly three-hundred points! And my attack power is nearly as strong as the new captain of the guard.”

I looked at her for a second then she looked at me. “Princess?” She laughed as she looked away from me.

“Ya, I’m the newest princess. But, I’ve yet to take my throne as I felt like I wasn’t strong enough to sit on the throne.”

I nodded, then took my book and put it back into the holster. “Well, all that aside, I think we need to get some rest. We’ll need to get up early so we can plan the attack.”

“Right.”

We didn’t say anything to one another as she summoned some more clothes then walked into the bathroom. I sighed as I laid back onto the bed and was worried about one of us moving around in our sleep. ‘Why does she have to be the first woman I’d sleep in the same bed with.’

“Um, V-Vargas.”

I turned my head and saw Twilight with her head poking out of the door, and I could see her holding a shirt to her chest. “Ya?” She blushed as she looked at me, embarrassed about whatever she was going to say.

“M-my shirts won’t fit my chest anymore.”

I blushed and groaned as I sat up then took my shirt off. “Here, I’ll take you shopping tomorrow afternoon.” I turned my head as she stepped out then took my shirt.

“Thanks, and I’ll pay you back once we get this whole mess dealt with.”

“Don’t worry about it.”

I waved a hand before I heard the door close. I sighed as I laid back down on the bed and looked at the wall. A minute later, the door opened, and I turned my head and saw she was in some very tight shorts on and my shirt, which barely fit her. I could see her lower stomach, and she tried to pull it down as she looked at me.

“Please don’t stare at me.”

I smiled, then got up, pulled a toothbrush out of my bag, and then walked into the restroom. I left the door open, seeing as I didn’t need to use the bathroom or take a bath. I brushed my teeth then turned on the sink. I leaned down and cupped my hands under the water, then brought them to my mouth. I raised my hands, then started to rinse my mouth out, then sip it out, letting the water wash away the spit. I shut the water off once it was gone. I set the toothbrush on the opposite side of the sink. I sighed as I stretched and looked at Twilight as she sat up in bed with glasses and a book in hand as the sun started to lower in the sky. I looked at an old clock on the wall and saw it was a little past eight o'clock. I hummed, then pulled the covers back and climbed back into the bed. I covered myself up, and as I laid there, Twilight spoke up.

“Hey Vargas, I have a question.”

I turned, and she looked at me with a smile as she marked her place in her book then sat it down on the nightstand. She smiled as she looked down at me.

“Do you think we’ll be able to take out the horde in a single blow?”

I laughed a little, then nodded as I looked at her. “Hell ya, well wipe them out and get back on our mission. As soon as we get back, I’ll kill my first A-class monster and get into that damn ring.” She smiled and nodded, then took her glasses off then set them on the book. I smiled as I laid back down, and she turned off the lights. I turned as she moved around then I felt her lay down. I closed my eyes, and it didn’t take long before I felt myself drift off to sleep.

Vargas dream space

I opened my eyes again and saw a large green field with trees off in the distance. I smiled as I looked around and found a tree alone on the top of a hill with someone standing there. I blinked then started to walk, wanting to see who was there. It didn’t take me long to get to the top of the hill. I saw a man standing there, but the thing that shocked me was he looked like my final evolution. “Ignis Halcyon Vargas.” He looked at me and smiled as he looked at me.

“Ah, I see you finally come to see me.”

I blinked, and he smiled as he sat down in the shade of the tree.

“Take a seat; it's time we talked.”

I sat down, and he smiled as he looked at me. “So?”

He laughed then he started to talk in a tone someone would use when talking to their child.

“Well, I’ll be straight with you Vargas, you're the next god to be born in this world. I was the last fire god, but I died long before Celestia or Luna was born. The merchant that gave those items was an old friend of mine. I told him I wanted another god of flames to come to this world. So, I told him to find someone who could take up the mantle. I didn’t expect him to find another me but this, but it’s fine.”

I laughed then crossed my arms as I looked at the sky. “So, I know my basic stats are lower than Celestia or Luna, so how do you think I’ll deal with them as we both know that may very well come to it.” He laughed as he looked at me, then he held a hand out to me.

“Have a looked at this.”

He turned his hand, and I saw a gem in his hand. A stats bar came up, and I looked at them, shocked.

Ignis Halcyon Vargas/ True god of fire

Level 150

Hp 12000

Atk 5500

Def 5000

Rec 4900

“Three brave busters as well as an overdrive and multiple passive effects and well as active effects. You’ll gain all of these.

“Holy shit, are you saying I’ll reach these levels?”

He laughed, then closed his hand, then nodded as he pulled out a vile from a bag on his side.

“You’ll get there, and here’s something to help you along in the long term.”

I took the vile then looked at it. “What is this?”

“A liquid form of all the imp types. There are five of each and will boost your stats permanent stats. You can find them in high-level dungeons, but those are rare in this day and age.”

I laughed, then looked down at the vile, then looked at him. “How do I know all this is real?” He laughed, then leaned back into the tree. “Drink it, then check your stats when you wake up.” I laughed, then nodded as I opened the vile top then chucked, knowing the taste would suck. I coughed once I was done, then looked at him. “Fuck did I just swallow liquid ash!?” He laughed as he looked at me, then smirked as he snapped his fingers.

Vargas awake stat

I snapped awake, then shot up and felt something fall off me back onto the bed. The sunlight didn't bother me as much as that taste from the dream. I huffed as I sat in bed, and I could hear Twilight groan.

“What’s wrong, Vargas?”

I looked down at Twilight and saw she was right next to me. I rubbed my eyes as I stood up then looked back at Twilight. She yawned as she rubbed her eyes and sat up with a rat's nest. "It's nothing, just a dream." I walked into the bathroom and turned on the cold water. I cupped my hands under the water then slashed it on my face to wake myself up more.

“Ah!”

I jumped as I heard Twilight jump up. I looked back into the room as she grabbed her clothes.

"We've got an hour to get to the meeting!"

She rushed over and grabbed me with her magic, then threw me out. I hit the bed as she slammed the door. I sighed, then nodded my head before I stood back up and got my lower armor on, and grabbed my cape from her side of the bed.

‘Damn.’ I looked back at the door and yelled to her. “I need my shirt!”

“Hold on!”

I sighed as I sat on the bed with my armor beside me. After ten minutes, she opened the door and threw my shirt over to me. I smiled as I put it on, then got my armor on as she fixed her cape, and I stood after I got my chest plate then started to set my shoulder guards.

“Here, let me get the other one.”

I gave her my left shoulder guard, and she hooked it on, and I was done once it was on. I stood from the bed, then got my sword and set it on my back. I nodded then we started to walk out of the room.

“We're going to get breakfast on the way; we need to get to the main guard to get ready for the attack.”

“We don’t need to stop; remember all that meat I bought?”

She looked at me as I pulled the bag of dried deer meat out of my shoulder bag. She smiled as she took the bag from my hand.

“Thanks.”

She opened the bag and took out some meat.

“I can’t believe I forgot about you buying the meat.”

She started to eat as we walked down the street. "So, how do you think all this will go down?" Twilight hummed as she chewed on the meat. She swallowed, then spoke as we turned the corner.

"Well, we're just planning the assault, and in a few hours, we'll be charging the overrun mine shafts."

I nodded as we walked up to the guard station. We walked in, and I was surprised at all the guards checking armor and weapons.

"Hey, Vargas!"

I looked over, and Heavy walked overdressed the same as she was yesterday. I smiled as she walked up and crossed her arms as she and Twilight looked at one another. Bu, Heavy spoke to her in a slightly worried tone.

"Hey, why did two more from your guild show up?"

We looked at one another then I nodded as I looked down at Heavy. "Take me to them." She nodded, then waved for me to follow her. I knew they would be watching us. This is too obvious, far too direct. We took me to a room, and I walked in and saw the woman and man from the kitchen. They looked at me as I shut the door keeping Heavy out. "You two are here to keep an eye on me." It wasn't a question; it was a fact I was stating. She laughed as she looked at me and the man smirked as he looked at me. “I know the two of you are playing at some angle. If I think for a second you two are going to try something that may get someone killed, I’ll make sure you pay for it.” The man dropped his smirk, and the woman seemed a little surprised. “Stay out of this, and you will not be harmed.” The man seemed to get angry, and the women seemed interested in what I was saying. “You’ve been warned.” I opened the door then walked back out. Heavy looked at me, and she seemed confused,

“Vargas, what is going on?!”

I smiled as I waved her off. “Don’t worry, and they’re here to take on another quest. But, just give them their space, ok?” She nodded a little nervous but smiled as I nodded for her to walk along with me. I was a little worried now and knew I might have just put a target on my back.

"Vargas!"

I looked over as Twilight walked up to me with some papers in her arms. She hooked her staff to her waist somehow. Ignoring that, I spoke to her. "What's with the papers?" She pulled them out, and I looked at a fucking werewolf with a club in its hand. "Is this a Kolbolt?" She nodded as she pulled out another picture.

"They've also found out that there is an A-class Kolbolt down there."

She turned the paper, and I looked at a massive beast of a werewolf with a huge sword in hand. Around its neck was a necklace and around its waist was a belt with bags.

"Damn, a Death spots that's a rare breed of monster."

I nodded, and I crossed my arms as I looked at the picture. "I'll be dealing with that monster myself." They looked at me, and I smiled as I looked at it.

"Everyone, your attention!"

We all looked up at the guard captain of this station. We all quieted down as we all looked at a large map on the wall of what must be the mine.

"Ok, with two raid class advertisers now have enough power to finish dealing with this Kolbolt hoard. We know we're dealt with the outer layers and wiped out the weakest of the hoard, so now all we've got left to deal with are about two hundred of them. That alone is not too much trouble. The true threat is the death spot class Kolbolt. A beast of the A-class monster category. If the raid members will please come up here."

Twilight and I walked through the crowd and out to stand in front of the guards.

“Everyone, these are the raid members. Fencer Vargas the swordsman and her ladyship Princess of friendship Twilight Sparkle.”

Everyone looked at us, and I crossed my arms, and Twilight gave them a slight curtsey. With that done, the chief started to talk again.

“All, with that out of the way. We were going to have long-ranged magic attacks to scatter them. Once they are separated, it will be a melee down there in that fight, so do the best you can to stay safe. In an hour, we’ll be heading out, so get something to eat, and if you want to write a letter in case of the worst.”

‘Sir!”

With that done, we walked out of everyone’s view, and I saw a few people handing out black envelopes. A woman walked up to us and held out an envelope to each of us. I nodded as I raised a hand, but Twilight took it. She nodded then started to walk again.

“You know, you could at least leave a letter for Trixie and Gilda if something were to happen.”

I nodded then started to walk. “No, I’ve already left one in my room.”

“Wait!”

I stopped and looked back and saw Heavy rushing up. She had three sets of potions on her arms.

"I got a few of the health and stamina potions sets."

I nodded, then took off my chest plate as she handed over a set to me. I put them into my chest plate then nodded as I looked at Twilight. “Twilight, we need to talk alone.” She looked at me for a second, then nodded as she took her staff off her side. I grabbed my cape as her gem shined, and we were covered in pink.

‘Can you hear me?’

I blinked as the glow faded. ‘Y-ya.’ She smiled and nodded her head.

‘This spell will link our minds for a few hours. Now, what’s going on?’

‘Two of the members of the guild came here. I think they’re here to keep an eye on us.’

‘WHAT!?’

I nodded as we walked out of the crowd and onto the street. ‘Ya, I’ll deal with them if it comes down to it. You get away as fast as you can and get a message to Celestia and Luna.’

‘But, that would be a death sentence! These people want to keep gaining power. People like that don’t care. They'll kill you without a second thought!’
