Dangerous Love
"Magic is Unpredictable"
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAs the morning rose, I started to make my way towards school a notable color was on my face, I was a lot more lively and a lot more comfortable. It had everything to do with how I slept last night. I can't explain it, but after Chrysalis left and I got that minor headache, I laid on the top of my bed and felt this warmth under my body., I don't know how to explain it other than it felt natural.
Memories of that weekend filled my head and, as they did, they seemed surreal. This weekend, I was beaten up, rescued by my former sex ed teacher, found out she is a crime boss, had the best sex of my life, became her boyfriend, met her ass of an ex, and met probably one of the scariest people I have ever met in my life. However my mind also drifted to the instructions given to me yesterday morning. How my new girlfriend/crime boss/actual boss saved me.
Chrysalis said that she stole Twilight's, our version, old compact disk that unleashed the magic. I could have sworn it was blown up though... I figured maybe Chrysalis found a way to rebuild it or something, at least that's the best solution I have at the current moment. I'll have to ask her about that when I see her again.
However, I needed to focus, I was exposed to Equestrian Magic and that could have side effects. I mean the Rainbooms can "Pony Up", Sunset can turn into some angel thingy, plus a demon, and Twilight's Midnight Sparkle form was kind of hot. I tried to piece together how I was going to approach the subject when I heard a voice behind me clearing it's throat. I stopped dead in my tracks as I clenched my fist ready to fight. There was a hush over nearby students who knew...they knew what happened between me and Gold. She probably said some lie or something about me. Least Sunset, Twilight, and the others don't believe it if that was the case. Probably because Sunset caught her in the act...
I took a deep breath as I turned to face the she demon who tore my heart out and stomped it into pieces. There was no mistaking that expensive ass perfume, the luscious body moving like a snake tempting to go after the forbidden fruit, her frilly white dress, pearls that I brought for her on Christmas...bitch, and her looking at me with a glare. "Where have you been, lately?!" spoke the bane of my existence, Gold Shine.
"Working," was my response as I went to walk away but she stood in front of me. "I need to get to class."
"Class isn't for another hour, Ace! Where have you been? Why haven't you been looking for me?" Gold said crossing her arms. "Don't tell me you thought one little fight is all it takes to..."
"Sunset told me about you." which caused Gold to lock up. "and if you're bugging me...something tells me you are reaping what you sowed. Aren't you, Goldie?" using her old pet name is hopefully locked her into silence as she just stared at me walking away.
However, the stubborn bitch wouldn't relent. "You aren't a man!" which caused me to roll my eyes and keep walking. "Get back here! Fight for me, damn it! Why won't you listen to me?! Just say something, anything!?"
I stopped one final time to turn as we stared at each other. My eyes locked with hers as I slowly narrowed them which caused Gold to back down a bit. I spoke, at last. "If you want to know what I've been doing, I've been moving on from you. You tore my heart out, and thanks to a real friend I found out you never cared about me in the first place." Gold looked away from me in a huff. "You were just happy I had a steady job and I was naive enough to fall for you." I then smirked "If you want to know what I've been doing, Goldie." Gold glared at me when I said that as I continued "Oh, it's nothing major, I just found a new job that pays me double of what I used to earn," Gold's mouth dropped "Oh, and I got a new girlfriend who likes me as a person, and is not using me." Fury laced Gold's eyes as I turned once again to walk away.
"Fuck you! " she bellowed out at me. "Ass..." I spotted Sunset and the others barely hearing her. "HOLE!" there was the distinct sound of someone grabbing a bookbag in mid air as I turned, and gained a big smile. Almost like she's been on cue, Chrysalis stood holding Gold's bookbag in her hands Gold locked up "Uhh...I uh..."
"Ms. Shine..." my badass amazing girlfriend stated "To Principle Celestia's Office." Gold wanted to say something but I started to walk away again. So whatever happened afterwards I can't say. I can say that I saw Sunset giving me a thumbs up as I smirked to her.
Sunset spoke "And the award for moving on from their ex goes to..." I let out a chuckle as Sunset said "Anyways, how was your weekend, Ace?"
The surreal weekend flashed in my eyes as I said simply "Very eventful," which was no lie. "Hey Sunset, can I ask you something?"
"Sure" Sunset said walking with me, as we began talking.
"So, where you're from magic is real and very common right?" which got Sunset to give me a puzzling look as if I just asked her if the Earth was round. I guess it was kind of an obvious statement. I sighed "Sorry, dumb question,"
"Eh, it's cool, to awnser your "dumb question" it is." Sunset said "There is magic everywhere. It's why I always get nervous about bizarre things that happen around here." I listened intently "Magic can..." She sighed and said "No, Magic in this world..." it was like she was trying to find words. "Magic is unpredictable" was the best she could say.
"At least in this world it is" Sunset commented as she stopped at her locker "Where I'm from people can do magic with ease and it usually goes according to plan, unless you're trying some of the big spells." Sunset started to get her books for her first class "Here though, it's kind of random. Sure there's some objects from Equestria I can use with ease but..." she let out a small sigh. "it gets frustrating sometimes. I'm still trying to understand it, and honestly without Twilight I couldn't have gotten as far as I've gotten."
"So, what would happen if someone not exposed to magic was exposed to it?" trying my damndest to frame that as a totally 'So I have this friend' sort of way. "I'm kind of curious now" I said, honestly.
Sunset sighed "Truthfully, I don't know. I guess it kind of depends on the intentions. When Twilight got exposed to a lot of magic before, she was also over whelmed by greed. It turned her into that Midnight Sparkle thing." Sunset sighed as she remembered that incident a few years back. "However, bonds can make it easier to control magic. I know it sounds cheesy, but my friends are how I am able to get and handle on things. Like I said, Twilight alone has helped me so much in this field."
She looked at me getting a small smile, I'm guessing having some good memories over there as my other worldly friend said "I think the best way I can put it, is Friendship is Magic."
I looked at her and nodded saying "Thanks, Sunset. I've been super curious to ask you but I never really got the chance."
Sunset waved and said "Well, if you have any more questions, I'd be happy to answer them." I smiled saying that I would then went to class.
As class came by and went, I started to make my way to Chrysalis's car while mine was in the shop. Chrysalis was looking a little down as I asked "Long day?"
Chrysalis asked "Yeah." She let out a heavy sigh "I just got a call from Braces. He's gotten really sick," she explained "Some sort of stomach bug." She sighed "I've got some stuff I need to give to one of my more reliable clients, and every else is busy with other things."
I asked "Whose the client?"
Chrysalis went to speak in code then looked at me letting out a deep breath "His name is Capper, he's a fence that operates in and out of town, I got a shipment for him, some jewels he's been looking for. He really wants em but I guess he's going to have to wait."
"Well, I could just do it." I offered as Chrysalis gave me a look. "What?"
"Last time you did me a huge solid like that you were strung up like a pinata and beaten half to death!" Chrysalis pointed out. "No chance."
I said "Won't that Capper guy be kind of mad? He sounds really important."
"Not important enough for me to worry about him, but he does pay really well." Chrysalis said her mind clearly mulling this over. "Still I don't think..." she let out a sigh "I don't want to see you hurt again."
"I'm dating a crime boss, and besides it's just delivering a package. Isn't that why you hired me?" I pointed out as Chrysalis let out a very audible and heavy sigh.
"I love you, and I thank you so much for the offer but I'm keeping you as far away from that side of my life as possible. Talking about it is one thing, but putting you in danger is out of the question." was Chrysalis's response as she started up the car. There was a small silence as we were driving back to my place. I saw the gears in her head turning but I understood her reasoning.
I kissed her, then got out of the car ready to head inside as Chrysalis said "Ace...wait..." I stopped at that as she said "Just there and back. No stops, you only answer the phone if it is a known number or my private cell number I gave you." She wrapped her hands around the wheel. "Just this once, okay?"
I nodded as I got back in the car with Chrysalis as she drove off the car filled with a massive uncomfortable air.
