Assgnment

Canterlot, Gears’ Condo
0600hours, March 20, 1980

Gears woke up in a chair sitting across from a bed that held a young colt within its blanks. Gears looked around the room and noticed the bible on him. He had a small smile as he remembered what had happened the night before. He nuzzled Blueblood and walked out of the room, putting the bible on Blue’s desk as he walked out. Gears walked into his own room and took off his clothes and threw them in the dirty laundry. He then grabbed a towel and entered the bathroom.

Blueblood woke up in his room and noticed that Gears wasn’t there. He quickly got off the bed and rushed out of the room. He looked all around the condo but didn’t find any sign of Gears. Tears fell freely down his face as he couldn’t find him. He walked back to his room until he saw the door next to his. Blueblood immediately went inside the room. When he saw no one was in there, he began to welled, tears and snot falling from his face. Then he saw a light coming from under a door he didn’t notice before he ran to it and tried to open the door but it was locked. He pressed his ear to the door and heard rushing water. Blueblood really focused on what he could hear. It was a stallion's voice singing a song that Blue recognized.

Blueblood took a deep breath and began looking around the room. He saw pictures of a lot of ponies and other strange creatures that he didn’t know what they were. He walked to a black dresser and opened the lower drawer and saw two pairs of socks. He pulled them out and noticed the socks had pink and purple stripes running across them. Blueblood stared at them with confusion. His innocent mind didn’t realize what he held in his hooves. But before he could put on the large socks, the bathroom door opened and Gears walked out of it with a towel around his waist. Once Gears saw Blueblood and what he was holding, Gears’ checks went beat red. Gears quickly got to Blueblood side and took the pair of stallion lingerie from the colt's hooves.

“Blueblood don’t touch those.” Gears squeak out. Blueblood was confused now. Gears face red but Blueblood knows that he isn’t angry so what did he do?

“Why”

“Those are for adults only so please just don’t touch them.”

“Why are they for adults only?” Gears' face got even redder as he now had to explain lingerie to a five-year-old as innocently as possible.

“Blueblood when a male and a female love each other very much. They do adult things but sometimes they're not always excited to do those things so the male or female would put on curtain clothes to make the other one excited.”

It finally dawned on Blueblood what he was talking about, or at least he thought he did. “So those things are to make a mare excited to kiss their colt friend?”

“Uhm yyess” Gears said with a nervous grin

“Ewww.” Blueblood

“You say that now,” Gears said with a chuckle, face still red. “So Blue were got a conference to plan so come let me get dressed”

Canterlot, Castle Barracks
0645 hours, March 20, 1980

Red Harvest was reading files of former nobles, then immigrants files, and finally a book of dragon culture and lore. She was halfway through the book when she was interrupted by a cute stallion walking in. Harvest looked up at the stallion, noticing that he had a recruit uniform on. She decided have some fun

“Hello cutie~” she cud

The stallion blushed, then saluted “ma’am”

“What's a stallion like you wear a mare's uniform”

The stallion rolled his eyes with an annoyed look on his face but before he could say anything Harvest chuckled “I'm just bucking with you, anyone wearing that uniform has earned it. Even if their stallions”

“Hardy har har,” the stallion snarked as he walked up to a Harvest. “So Sargent, what are you doing?”

“None of your business Rook and shouldn’t you be with your new regiment.”

“I am ma'am I was assigned to your squad”

“Really? No offense, but a stallion couldn’t handle the type of assignments we have to deal with.”

“Ma’am, with all due respect, I have seen the record of this squad and I believe I can.”

“Okay then come back in the morning and we can get started”

“Ma’am it is morning”

“What?!” she looked at the clock beside her bunk. “hosesapples”

Harvest closed her book and quickly ushered her new squamate to the assignments desk down the hall. Once the two got to the desk they noticed something. No guards were in the office. The two ponies approached the front desk where a stallion was happily doing a crossword. Harvest ‘dinged’ the bell, getting the stallions' attention , the colt looked up from his paper and saw a pegasus and a unicorn in front of him wearing guard uniforms.

“Hello~” the receptionist said softly

“Hi I’m Sargent Red Harvest. Me and my squad haven’t gotten their assignment”

“Oh Sargent Harvest The princess has a special assignment for you.” he chuckled hoofing over a few papers.

Harvest grabbed the papers and passed them over to the rookie beside her. She looked at the receptionist and noticed he had a shine on his eyelids and lips. She smiled at the stallion. "Thank you, you handsome stallion”

The rookie rolled his eyes and gave his own two sene “so did your marefriend get you that make up”

The receptionist turned to him and gave a weak smile. “Yes she did”

“Let's be honest, would you have worn it if she didn’t get it for you?”

“No but she spends a few hundred bits on it so I don’t want it to go to waste.”

“Okay, thanks for the answer”

“So what about you, do you have a marefriend”

The rookie was about to answer but was stopped by Harvest "Come on rook we need to get ready no need for stallion gossip” she pushed him out of the room leaving the receptionist all the alone. After a couple hours later the sun came up and the two ponies started walking arabic street. Harvest had no idea what to think. Her ‘special’ mission was actually an escort mission for a VIP. once the two got to the home marked on the map. The two were confused. This place would barely be called a home; it was more like a condo.

Canterlot, Gears’ Condo
0800 hours, March 20, 1980

Gears dried off Blueblood after getting him out of the tube. Blueblood’s fur puffed out like a fuzzball. Gears stifled a chuckle as he picked up Blue and brought him back into his room. He grabbed a brush from his dresser and walked up to Blueblood who stared at Gears with curiosity. Gears brushed his fur down, trying to keep Blueblood calm.

“Mister Gears, what are we doing”

“Well, we’re Going to head to canterlot’s business section to set up the conference I told you about.” Gears finally finished brushing him.

“Okay, mister Gears”

“Come on Blueblo-” Gears stopped himself as he heard a knock at the door. Blueblood stuck his hooves out motioning for him to carry him. Gears picked him up and spun him around a bit. Blueblood laughing at the unexpected movement. Gears then put him on his back and trotted to the door. He opened it to meet the eyes of a red pegasus mare.

“IT’S YOU,” both adults said in unison. Blueblood just smiled at his new friend visiting

“Hello mis Harvest”

“Uhm hey kid, so this is where you live” Harvest said nervously.

“Yup I really like it here. Mister Gears is really nice.” Harvest stared at Gears with a curious look on her face.

“Well that's good. Gears as your guard, I think we should head out as soon as possible.”

Gears went over what she said.“Got it. Let me put some clothes on and we'll go.”

“Typical stallion.” She muttered under her breath as Gears put Blueblood on the floor and walked to his room. Blueblood tried to follow him but was stopped by Harvest. After a few minutes, Gears got out of his room wearing a black suit with a red tie. Also had put on glasses. He walked up to blueblood and put him on his back, and the two walked out of the condo. Gears and Harvest went to the bottom of the stairs and saw a stallion standing at attention. He looked into the large, suited stallion. Then he really looked up at the stallion. He didn’t have fur, but it's clear that he had something that seemed to be scales.

“Sir, are we going to be waiting for VIP here?” The rookie tried his best not to have his fear in his face as he looked at the freaky pony.

“I’m the VIP, so let's get go”

“Hello” Blueblood said from Gears’ back. The rookie looked at the little colt, waving at him. The rookie saluted at the two with a slight tremble in his legs. Gears noticed this but chose not to comment.

“So what's your name, soldier?” Gears asked

“G-Green Days sir” the rookie answered

“Good to meet you Green days I’m Gears you mind giving me the details of your assignment.”

“No sir, here you go”

Gears looked over the mission file it was signed by twilight herself and it was specifically for Harvest, yet escort missions have to be two guards but Gears knows his teacher and friend long enough to guess what was happening.

“Hey Green days, who assigned you to Red’s squad?”

The stallion Grind and had stars in his eyes. "The princess herself put me on this team and she said I had potential.”

Gears smiled and rolled his eyes. "She said the same to me when I was a colt, tho that was a long time ago” Gears and Blueblood walked down the street with the Red Harvest and Green following their VIP. Gears turned to Blueblood and started talking about getting Blueblood clothes when he turned to Harvest.

“Mis harvest do you want to come with us”

“What um I would love to kid it's just I have my own foal at home and I rather not leave her alone you know.” She made an excuse hoping it would work. Blueblood just started to tear up, he laid down on Gears back. He throws his forelegs down on Gears hips making him stop in place. He turned to the three behind him and said.

“Come on blue not everyone has time to do things”

Blueblood turned to Gears with tears falling down his face. “B-but I want her to come with us.”

“I know Blue but she can’t.”

“But But But” he was about to let out a welled until Gears put him on the ground and scratched behind his ear. Blueblood started laughing, sadness completely forgetting. Harvest smiled at the scene in front of her. Gears stopped scratching and pulled a coin from behind Blue's ear. His eyes lit up as he saw the bit in Gears claw. Gears hoofed it over to him.

“Cool how did you do that mister Gears”

“Magic!” Gears said with enthusiasm

“But your thinking didn’t light up?”

“My horn and I’ll show you how to do it later.”

Harvest walked closer to the two and patted blueblood on his back. The three continued walking as Green Days saw everything that happened. He quickly trotted back into his place by the VIPs side with a cheeky smile on his face.
