Chapter 6: Can't we settle this over a pint?

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Rogue had barely been in the Griffin capital for an hour when he'd gotten into a fight with at least ten Griffins at a tavern when one of them called him a hairless freak, so Rogue being the proud man that he is took offence to the comment and shot back by calling him a feather brained halfwit, needless to say that the Griffins then took offence and a fight broke out in the street. Rogue got cut up pretty bad by the claws of the Griffins but he gave twice as good as he got and when he finished the fight by knocking out the last of the Griffins he decided to finish a job that was already finished by kicking each of his downed opponents in the balls so hard that according to legend their G5 decedents can still feel it.

After he finished kicking balls to oblivion Rogue walked over to the table where the Griffins had been sitting before the fight and claimed the unopened bottle of twelve year old Griffonian scotch that the Griffins he just K.O'd had been playing cards for, he then opened the bottle and drank at least a third of the bottle in one go. Now something to note about Rogue is when he's calm he's as sound as a pound, when he's angry or fighting he's a demon but when he's drunk, he gets all friendly even towards people he normally doesn't like witch is how he met his ex-girlfriend.

Rogue took another swig from the bottle as he walked passed the defeated Griffins who were still on the ground holding their destroyed balls. "Cheers for the drink lads, tastes like perfection in a bottle." Rogue said taking another swig from the bottle as he felt the familiar sensation of warmth spreading through his body as the scotch started to hit dulling the pain from the wounds he'd gotten in the fight but little did he know that at that time that six mares he'd almost completely forgotten existed just arrived in Griffin Stone.

"So Twilight, why are we in the Griffin kingdom again?" Rainbow asked looking out the window of the carage they were riding in as they entered the Griffin capital.

"We're here because one of Celestia's spys reported seeing Rogue heading to Griffin stone a few weeks ago, and considering that it's the first confirmed sighting of him since he escaped Canterlot outside of a roumer that he defeated the current Dragon Lord in single combat, the Princess wants us to ask the Griffins if they've seen him." Twilight explained looking over the report from the spy.

"Hold up a sec Twi, did you just say he beat the Dragon Lord in a fight?" Applejack asked looking to her friend hoping it was a joke as she remembered the time they had to deal with a dragon outside of Ponyville and just how ineffective fighting a dragon could be without having Fluttershy around to convince it to leave.

"That's only a roumer, nopony knows if it's true or not." Twilight said flipping through the pages of the report.

"And what are we going to do if we actually find him darling. I would rather not get man handeled by that brut." Rarity asked.

"Ooooooo I know we could have a drinking contest with him, first to pass out loses." Pinkie said looking to each of her friends for approval.

"Pinkie dear, he's violent enough when sober, getting him drunk might result in somepony getting killed." Rarity said giving Pinkie a look that said I know you mean well but that's a really bad idea.

"But what if he's a friendly drunk or a flirty drunk or both?" Pinkie asked in quick succession.

"I don't know, I find him kind of scary looking." Fluttershy said hiding behind some of her hair as she looked out one of the carage windows. "Besides we all saw what he almost did in Canterlot." She added quietly.

"It doesn't matter if he's scary or not, we just have to hit him with the good old friendship blast and he'll be done for." Rainbow said confidently.

"And how are we going to do that now that the tree of harmony has the elements?" Applejack asked with a raised eyebrow.

"We'll use those new rainbow forms that we got from opening the box." Rainbow said pleased with herself for having a good idea for once. Not long after Rainbow explained her idea the carage the girls were in came to a stop and one of the Royal guards dressed in civilian clothes opened the door of the carage.

"Lady's we have arrived." The guard said stepping aside as the main 6 got out. "Princess, we'll stay with the carage while you search the city." The guard who opened the door said as he kept his eyes on a group of shady looking Griffins nearby.

Twilight nodded to the guard. "All right girls, lets start asking around to see if anypony has seen Rogue." Twilight said looking out for a tattered dark grey cloak in the crowd.

Not even a full ten seconds later Pinkie poked Twilight on the shoulder. "Found him." Pinkie said pointing at Rogue who was standing while leaning back against a safety rail nearby drinking something from a bottle.

"That was easy." Rainbow said as the girls turned to look in Rogue's direction. "It's almost too easy." Rainbow said a little hesitant to get closer as the memories of getting the shit beaten out of her came back with a vengeance. "On second thought maybe we should just leave him alone." Rainbow said getting nervous.

"Rainbow Dash, I know the doctor said you have some slight P.TS.D after Rogue beat you up in Ponyville, but your never going to get over it if you don't confront him again." Twilight said as the girls gave their friend a group hug.

Rogue finished off the whisky and threw the now empty bottle behind him into the bin on the opposite side of the street without looking, he was just about to start moving when he heard the sound of footsteps surrounding him. Rogue looked at the mares that had taken it upon themselves to surround him. "Your not getting away this time Rogue." Twilight said as she and the others took up fighting stancese.

...
...
...

"I'm sorry, do I know you?" Rogue asked not sure who the six before him were supposed to be.

"WHAT, how do you not remember what you did in Ponyville and Canterlot?" Twilight asked shouting. "Never mind, girls let's get him." Twilight said flying at Rogue at full speed only for him to side step at the last possible second, Rainbow then came in from above with a downwards spin kick that Rogue back stepped out of the way of, and found Applejack's lasso falling around his body, before Applejack could pull the rope tight Rogue jumped into the air out of the lasso, while in the air Rarity launched enchanted gems at him. Thinking fast Rogue used the shadows under his cloak to make a chain that latched onto a nearby building that Rogue used to pull himself out of danger, narrowly avoiding the sharp crystals as they flew past him. Landing on his feet Rogue came face to face with Pinkie and her party cannon, just as Pinkie's artillery was about to fire Rogue lifted one of his legs and used his foot to flip the barrel straight up when it fired making it rain confetti and streamers. Rogue was about to start walking away when Fluttershy of all ponies put him in a choak hold from behind, being left with only one way to get out of the hold Rogue brought one of his hands behind his back and grabbed one of Fluttershy's boobs making sure to squeeze in a few times.

The moment Fluttershy felt the first squeeze on her right breast her face went so red that she made a beetroot look white by comparison making her release her hold on Rogue allowing him to move away from her while she covered her chest with her arms. "You monster, touching a lady like that." Rarity said readying another volley of crystals at the sight of what Rogue had done.

"It got me out of the choak hold didn't it." Rogue said as his face started turning a bit red from the alcohol in his system.

"Come on girls, let's form up and attack together." Twilight said as thee main 6 took formation in a line each of them in their own unique fighting stance, Rogue looked at the mares who were ready to fight again, he then looked to his left and saw a pub that was open.

"Can't we settle this over a pint?" Rogue asked thinking about getting a nice ice cold beer, his question caught the main 6 off guard. "Come on, first rounds on me, what do ya say." He added as the scotch kicked in more and more.

"Did he seriously just ask us out for drinks, while we're fighting?" Rainbow asked looking at the others while Rogue walked to the pub the most time honored place of social gathering and getting shit faced on weekends in Grate Briton.

"See, I told you guys a drinking contest would work." Pinkie said smugly as she hopped along following Rogue and catching up with him only to lock arms as they went in the pub.

"What just happened Twi?" Applejack asked looking to the smart pony in the group for an answer.

"I... I have no idea, but we should follow them before those two get into more trouble." Twilight said following Rogue and Pinkie into the pub, inside the pub was mostly empty with only a few old Griffons here and there in the back at a long ten seater table with drinks for every one mainly being two ciders for Applejack and Rainbow, a bottle of wine for Rarity and Twilight, a water for Fluttershy, another cider for Pinkie and Rogue had whisky on the rocks with Pinkie sitting to his right telling him about something while he nodded along.

"And then boom, we defeated Nightmare Moon and turned her back to Princess Luna." Pinkie said finishing the shortened story of how the main 6 met and defeated Nightmare Moon.

"Fascinating, it reminds me of the time I was up against thirty guys by my self." Rogue said taking a sip of his whisky.

"Ooooooo, how did that go?" Pinky asked as she leaned in closer to the inebriated young man.

"I beat them all of course, but I did have a broken bone or two to show for it." Rogue said looking at the pink mare as he noticed how close she'd gotten. "Hay, hay personal space." he added giving Pinkie a gentle push off him as Twilight sat to his left while the others took seats by the drinks that were bought for them.

"Are you really the same guy we met six months ago?" Twilight asked as she watched him interact with Pinkie.

"Well yeah, I'm the same guy, I was just massively pissed off and having a few bad days at the time." Rogue said having some more of his whisky.

"So are you going to apologies for what you did to me?" Rainbow asked glairing at Rogue from the bottom of the table with Applejack.

"No, you started that so I'm not apologizing, if anything you should apologies to me." Rogue said looking down the table at the pony he knew as skittles.

"Why should I apologies?" Rainbow asked.

"Because you attacked me first and I defended myself as a result." Rogue explained leaning back in his chair.

"Really, no apologies?" Applejack asked.

"Absolutely not, I didn't start this fight." Rogue said downing his drink in one go.

"Your unbelievable, what kind of gentle colt refuses to apologise." Rarity said in a huff as she stuck her nose up while looking away from Rogue.

"Ok a few things wrong with that, first I'm a human so the correct term is gentleman, second I have no reason to be nice when I get attacked out of nowhere and third I don't care about how you think people should act." Rogue said giving Rarity a look that could kill.

"Ok, so why did you attack the Princess in Canterlot?" Applejack asked trying to defuse any trouble before it began.

"In my defense, getting talked down to and treated like a child with no decision making ability is the fastest way to piss me off." Rogue explained.

"But why?" Twilight asked as she remembered how Luna was convinced that Rogue only acted the way he does was because of some kind of pain he was hiding deep down.

Rogue thought about how to respond to to that as he remembered something Vegeta said in the Buu saga of DBZ. "You may have invaded my mind and body but there's one thing a Saiyan always keeps. His pride!"

"You ask why, and the answer is pride, pride in the man that I am and all that I've accomplished so far." Rogue said as he remembered that moment from DBZ.

"I don't understand." Twilight said looking at Rogue with a raised eyebrow. "And what do you mean by, all you've accomplished?" Twilight asked looking at Rogue as if he suddenly grew an extra head.

"Oh right, I forgot that no one knows what I've been up to." Rogue said looking Twilight in the eye as he raised a hand and produced a stream of fire water and shadow using the elemental powers he currently had. "This is what I meant when I said all I've accomplished, the ability to use multiple elemental powers at once with out using magic." Rogue explained as the small spout of water took the form of an Asian dragon the flame took the form of a phoenix and the shadow took the form of a bat.

Twilight's jaw dropped at the sight, it was one thing to use one elemental power but three at once was unheard of to the point of being considered impossible because of the fact that over exposure to elemental power could kill a pony. "That's... impossible. No pony can survive using three elemental powers at once." Twilight said as she watched the small animals dancing around each other in the palm of Rogue's hand.

"Your forgetting one thing there Sparkler, I'm not a Pony I'm a Human, which means I'm built different from the bones out." Rogue said as he picked up his empty glass and walked over to the bar and got himself two ice cold pints of beer and camebackto the table.

"Really, your going to drink two at once and ponies call me a show off?" Rainbow said looking at Rogue as if he were an alcoholic.

"No, the second pint is so I don't have to go back up to the bar so soon." Rogue explained as he picked up one of his pints and drank a third of it in one go.

A few hours and many drinks later the six mares and one human stumbled out of the pub as it closed for the night, Pinkie Applejack and Rainbow were in front singing about cider while holding onto each other for support, Rarity and Fluttershy were a few steps behind with Fluttershy helping Rarity keep her balance after drinking wine all night and Twilight was in the back with Rogue who was by far the least affected by the all the alcohol in his system mainly due to pint of water he'd been getting in between the pints of beer. "You know, you ain't that bad Rogue. " Twilight said as she stumbled around next to him.

"Yeah, I guess you and your friends aren't that bad either Sparkle, but Skittles is still on my shit list." Rogue said catching Twilight as she almost fell over.

"Are you going to come back to Equestria with us?" Twilight asked stumbling badly as she walked.

"No, I have my own path to follow." Rogue said choosing to go after the power of lightning next, as the drunk group returned to the carage.

"Well good luck with whatever it is your planning on doing with those elemental powers." Twilight said leaning in and kissing Rogue on the cheek.

Rogue looked at the drunk bookworm. "That's not how you give someone a drunken kiss, this is." Rogue said using his right hand to pull Twilight in closer while also getting a hand full of ass and used his left hand to lift Twilight's face as he leaned in and kissed her on the lips for a few seconds before pulling away from the blushing Princess. "You see the key to a drunken kiss is making it unforgettable, that way you can regret it later." Rogue said as he broke of from the group disappearing into a heavy fog that was rolling in.
