Blood From Kindess
The Book
Previous Chapter---------chapter5------------
After waking up, you lean forward. You're lying in your own bed, at Fluttershy's house. Scratching your neck you think
What happened at the subway? I can't remember... had a strange dream too, it was like a ship... on a sea of... blood?
Looking at the table next to you in horror, you notice a book that Fluttershy has never had, nor has Twilight.
Oh no. Not me, please no!
You run to the bathroom, looking at your reflection... Just barely, you spot two pencil-sized holes on your neck. Running back to the book titled "Vampires 101", you open it to find a note.
"We've been watching you, human. You're perfect for our orginization. Don't worry, you don't have to join us. But I think you will. Sleep tight brother.
-Grigor.". (his name might change dunno)
"What the fuck is going on in this world?!" you whisper to yourself.
Walking back into the bathroom, you notice that the bite marks are disappearing, litterally before your eyes! On the back wqll, written in blood says "Choose wisely, my Brother." Spinning around to look, you see a regular wall, nothing on it.
Deciding to go on with your day, you walk into the shower, getting clean. you walk out to the kitchen, where you see a note from Fluttershy. It's on a napkin saying "In town. Here's breakfast. <3"
What is that? A heart? A carrot? I guess drawing isn't her thing...
Chowing down, you scarf down Fluttershy's breakfast of eggs, toast and vegetables. Here, everypony is a vegetarian, but eggs are allowed in things. Griffons and other animals aren't really looked down upon for eating meat, but it's not common for places to cater to their needs, that much you've learned in the short time you were here.
Walking around the house, exploring the edges of the Everfree Forest, (which fluttershy is deathly afraid of..) you think about this morning.
"I won't join them. Ever." you say to no one in particular.
You look over, seeing Fluttershy cross the bridge to her house. She spots you, giving you a wave which you return.
Will she still let me stay, even if she knows what kind of... beast I am?
Walking into the house you talk to Fluttershy.
"Hey there."
"Hi Fluttershy..."
"What's on your mind?"
"Well... I am a... I mean, I just wanted to go to town and look around."
"Okay.... Have a nice time!"
After walking through town, you step up to Rarity's house.
Knocking once, twice, thrice, you hear Rarity call out "I'll be right there!" Letting you in and signalling for you to sit, she then asks you a question you weren't ready for.
"Do I know why you're here? Yes. My advice? Just tell her. She might be a little scared, but then leave and come back at the end of the day and talk about it."
"Um. Thanks, Rarity." you reply
"It's not for you. It's for Fluttershy. To be honest, she could have any colt she wanted, but she just crumbles apart"
Sitting in silence for several minutes, you get up to leave.
"I'm not entirely sure about a human with a pony, but I think you are the first pony-person, sorry-to care about FLUTTERSHY, not what she looks like. A lot of colts had crushes on her, but she was so naïve that none of them got the chance."
"I guess I'm just lucky."
"Yeah." she says, while looking at the ground, a frown on her face.
"Great. Looks like a storm."
Walking to Fluttershy's house, feeling nervous, you see Fluttershy sleeping on the couch. Walking over, you sit net to her. Thinking whether or not to wake her up, you accidentally brush your hand across her leg while trying to walk by.
"AAAAHHHHHHHH- oh my... It's just you... " she screams.
"Sorry Fluttershy!"
"No, it's okay. I'm glad you're here. A storm is drawing near... "
"What did you have planned?" you say.
"I mean we could um, but w-w-would you want to? " she says, drawing into a whisper
"Fluttershy, just say it. I care about you. Just tell me." you reply.
"Um.. Did you say-?"
Cutting her off, you interject, "I know it hasn't been long since I met you but, I really like you Fluttershy."
"Oh um... I wasn't expecting this but yes, I feel the same about you." she says. "Yeah. I really like you too." She looks up, with a smile on her face.
Scooting closer to her, you put your arm around her, feeling her long mane in between your fingers.
After sitting for about 5 minutes you realize that Fluttershy is asleep. You fall asleep as well.... Suddenly, you wake up, laying on the couch with Fluttershy on top of you, still sleeping, mumbling something. Her soft hair is laying on your body, her body laying on yours, her neck open and vunerable... Just one bite and... Snapping yourself back to reality, you think to yourself.
I am not a monster. I control it. I am not a monster.
Fluttershy wakes up, saying to you, "Hey babe, how are you?"
"I'm good. Babe." you say, surprised about the sudden affection.
She really feels the same way about me?
She jumps off of you, and goes to take care of her animals.
Getting up, you decide to take a walk. You have a craving for a certain taste, but you can't tell what you want. Fluttershy doesn't want you to go into the Everfree Forest but you decide you'll be safe enough.
You feel at peace here, almost as if the forest -wants- you here. You look through the trees, seeing indistinct shapes, a blur here, a shadow there. You start walking back, turning your head like a security camera, searching for anything
This place is starting to creep me out...
Your fingers start to tingle, as if there is something you need to watch out for. You turn around, looking back at the path, and then you see him, standing on the path.
"Hello brother. I do hope you recieved my note. " he says.
Sorry for the delay guys! procrastination and then I had no ideas for how to string it together kinda slowed things down.
