Warrior
Chapter 3: The Usual Q&A
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI followed Twilight and her friends out of the forest to the town, I still don't trust them but I don't really have much of a choice at the moment and besides I would rather deal with these so called Ponies than whatever that monster was back there. As we left the forest we walked back to the town, from what I had gathered by what Twilight had said earlier the town is called Ponyville, honestly they might as well have called it pony town, as we entered the town Fluttershy spoke up and asked. "Uh... do you like animals Blake?" she asked and instantly looked away when I looked at her.
"Yeah, I like animals." I said as the yellow mare tried hiding behind her main. "Well as long as their not trying to kill me." I added looking away from the shy mare.
"Oh, that's good, I take care of sick animals at my cottage on the edge of town." Fluttershy said speaking at a normal volume now.
I looked at her again as we approached the town. "So, your some kind of vet then?" I asked looking at the mare who was only a few inches shorter than me.
"I guess you could say that, I just take care of the sick and wounded animals in the area, but some ponies do pay me to treat their pets." Fluttershy answered getting more confident as she spoke about her animal friends.
"So, what do ya do for work Blake?" Applejack asked looking back at me and I thought about answering with an insult but decided against it
"... for now anyway I am, or rather I was a student of Robotics in university." I answered and Twilight looked at me with a curious look.
"Robotics? Is that some kind of science?" Twilight asked looking at me with more interest than before.
"Yeah it is I guess, but it's mostly just an advanced form of engineering." I explain, dumbing it down so they could understand.
"So your an egghead like Twilight?" Rainbow asked as we passed a group of ponies in the street, surprisingly I didn't feel the need to hide my face as we walked through the town, I guess it must have been because I was talking with Twilight and the others as if they were human and it made me feel more comfortable.
"What's wrong with being smart?" I asked as Rainbow flew just ahead of me and made sure to stay out of my reach, she must have thought I'd pull her out of the sky again in another shoulder flip. "Nothing , if you haven't got your head in a book all day." Rainbow said and I caught Twilight giving her an annoyed look.
Pinkie then hopped in front of me with a smile. "Do you have any family?" She asked walking backwards to talk with me.
"Yeah, my mother and father... I also have a cousin, but I've never met him." I answered as we passed a house that looked like a giant gingerbread house and I had to do a double take looking back at the house a few times as we walked past.
"What is your mother like?" The White Bitch asked, and I ignored her as if she didn't exist, and then I noticed the pain in my shoulder and rib were gone, so I raised a hand to check the wound on my shoulder and found a fresh scar.
"WHAT THE FUCK!" I shouted suddenly making the six jump.
"What is it?" Twilight asked looking concerned.
"My wounds have healed." I said pulling the neck hole on my t-shirt open to look at my left shoulder seeing the fresh scar.
"How? those wounds aren't even ten hours old." Twilight asked as I pulled the neck hole open and she saw the scar on my shoulder.
"Maybe the sword is giving you powers, like when you used that energy wave in the Everfree." Pinkie suggested.
"This is going to need further study." Twilight said taking another note.
I backed away from Twilight and grabbed my sword's grip. "I'm no ones lab rat." I said feeling my anger rise at the thought of being experimented on.
Twilight raised her hands passively. "I didn't mean it like that." she said and I saw the honesty in her eyes and let go of my sword's grip.
I looked at her with contempt. "Fine, but don't push your luck." I said as we kept walking.
"HUMAN!!!" a female voice shouted, and we all looked down the street.
"What the hell." I said.
"Don't tell me she's coming." Rainbow said.
"I think she is." Applejack said rotating her shoulders as if she was going to fight someone.
"Oh Celestia, it's the last Pony we need right now." Pinkie said taking a fighting stance with AJ.
"Dare I even ask." I said looking at the way Twilight and her friends were getting ready for a fight.
"It's Lyra." Fluttershy said joining Rainbow in the air.
"Who?" I ask.
"Lyra Heartstrings, she's obsessed with Humans darling." The White Bitch said as energy covered her horn.
"Dodge right." A rumbling voice said, and I followed it's instruction as a mint green pony mare wearing a matching green hoodie, blue jeans and white sneakers missed hitting me and rolled back to her feet looking right at me with a yandere look on her face.
"I knew it, humans are real." Lyra said taking a step closer.
"If you don't want to get raped in the street draw me now." the voice said again and I drew the sword from my back and I raised it at this Lyra pony.
"Don't be like that human, I just want your human babies." Lyra said as love hearts came in her eyes.
"Lyra stop, this isn't how a mare should behave in public." Twilight said getting between me and Lyra.
"Twilight, I should have known you would try and take my special somepony." Lyra said looking like she was going crazy.
"Special what now." I said not quite understanding what was going on.
"Come on human, just come to me." Lyra said jumping at me but I jumped back and raised my sword at Lyra.
"You stay away from me." I said not flinching as she tried lunging at me only to get the blade of my sword right up against her throat at which point she snapped out of her crazy.
"Ok, ok I'm sorry, pleas don't hurt me." Lyra said cowering.
"You'd better be." I said removing my sword from Lyra's throat but I still pointing it at her as she got up. "You leave me alone from now on." I said as I watched her walk away reluctantly.
"Just you wait, you'll be all mine eventually." Lyra said giving me the yandere look again as she walked away. Once she was gone I put my sword back in it's scabbard on the first try this time and looked at Twilight and the others who were giving me a mix of looks.
"What?" I asked looking at the six.
"Nothing, I just think you handled that well." Twilight said looking at me with a slight blush, I think she was blushing anyway, it's a little hard to tell with her purple fur and all.
A few minuets later at the Golden Oaks Library
I sat in an arm chair in the library that Twilight lived in with The White Bitch, pinkie and Twilight on a couch to my left and on my right Fluttershy, Rainbow and Applejack on a couch with a coffee table between us with my sword resting on the table in it's scabbard. "So, what's your world like compared to Equestria?" Twilight asked taking more notes.
"Hard to say without seeing the technology here." I answered.
"That's a fair point." Twilight said looking at me with a small smile.
"I have a question." Rainbow said raising a hand.
"Shoot Dash." I said and she blushed a little.
"What kind of sports are popular on your world?" She asked as her wings and ears twitched slightly.
"Well that depends on what part of the world your from, by the most popular but far wouldn't have to be Football also called Soccer in America." I answer.
"Fair enough." Rainbow said crossing her arms as she leaned back.
"And what is the fashion like on your world?" The White Bitch asked but I didn't answer, was it petty, yes, but the look on her face was priceless.
"What is your kinds greatest achievement?" Twilight asked.
I thought about that for a long while before answering. "We put people on the moon." I answered with a shrug and the girls all gasped at the mention of putting a man on the moon..
"Your kind went to the moon?" Twilight asked wide eyed.
"Yeah, that was about 55 years ago I think, don't quote me on that." I said not too sure how long ago Apollo 11 set down on the moon.
"What kind of sweets and cakes have your kind made?" Pinkie asked with a very wide smile.
"Uh, I'm not sure sorry, I'm not a baker." I said sheepishly scratching the back of my head.
"Oh that's a shame, I was looking forward to baking treats with you." Pinkie said looking a little sad.
"Well, I could always learn." I said trying to make Pinkie feel better.
"Really?" Pinkie asked getting really exited and in my face.
"Yeah, when I get the time." I said hoping it would get her off me.
"Pinkie promise?" Pinkie asked.
"What?" I asked.
"Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye!" Pinkie said.
"Uh...." I say unsure of the insanity i just heard.
"Say it." Pinkie said as her main and tail went strait as her color faded slightly and I felt like my life was in danger.
"Do what she says." the voice from before said.
"Ok, cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." I said and Pinkie backed off and smiled at me.
"I'll hold you to that." Pinkie said.
"Ok, I'll learn how to bake." I said putting my hands up.
"While your at it you should learn how to make apple Pie with me." AJ said with a cocky smirk.
"Fine, I might as well at this point." I said as AJ smiled at me.
"If you don't mind me asking, are you single." The White Bitch asked and I noticed the looks the other five were giving me.
"Yeah I'm single, why?" I ask with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh, no reason." The White Bitch said with a blush and the others also blushed and I had a sudden realization about why they were blushing.
"So, elements of harmony, those are interesting." I said trying to change the topic.
"Yes they are, Princess Celestia currently has them in the Canterlot vault." Twilight said with enthusiasm.
"Princess who?" I asked and the girls looked like i'd just slapped them.
"You don't know who Princess Celestia is?" The six asked in unison.
"Why would I, I'm an alien technically." I said crossing my arms.
"Twilight I'm back a young boy called out as the door was opened and closed and I found myself looking at a purple lizard with a tan underside wearing a light grey t-shirt with tan shorts and no shoes due to his scales and clawed feet.
"What the hell is that?" Me and the lizard said at the same time.
"Spike this is Blake, Blake this is Spike." Twilight said introducing us.
"Hi." I said with a slight wave.
"What are you?" Spike asked.
"I'm a human." I answer.
"What, you mean like what Lyra keeps going on about?" Spike asked.
"Yeah I guess, but she's crazy." I said dismissively.
"Yeah, I know right." Spike said looking at me and I offer him a bro fist that he accepts.
"Oh, I have a question." Pinkie said raising a hand.
"And what's that?" I ask.
"Where are you going to be staying?" Pinkie asked. I thought about it, my hiding place in the ruined castle just wouldn't do for long term survival, and I didn't have anywhere to go.
".......I'm not sure." I said leaning back in my seat, and I notice that AJ, Twilight and Fluttershy are looking at me with blushes.
"I have a spare room." Twilight, Fluttershy and AJ said at the same time.
"Uh, I don't know." I say.
"You can always bunk with me." Pinkie said with a wink.
I blush at hearing this. " I would rather stay in Twilight's guest room." I say without thinking, and she blushes.
"Are you sure?" Pinkie asks pressing her large breasts together.
"I'm sure." I say without gulping and I notice Twilight blushing with a smile.
"Ok, if your sure." Pinkie said defeated for now.
"So you want to stay with me?" Twilight asked looking at me.
"Yeah, I trust you more than those three." I say pointing at Rainbow, Applejack and The White Bitch.
"Hey, that ain't nice." AJ said.
"Neither is getting a broken bone." I said with distain, AJ didn't have a response to that.
"Oh damn, I have weather duty in like five minutes." Rainbow said looking at the clock on the wall getting up and running to the door. "See you guys later, I have an important meeting to get to." She said and flew out the window.
"Now that I think about it I have somewhere to be as well." Applejack said getting up.
"Me too, I have to check up on Roseluck's bird." Fluttershy said getting up as well.
"I think I should be off as well, Sweety Belle will be coming home from school soon." The White Bitch said getting up and walked to the door with Fluttershy and Applejack as the four left.
"Well I'd better go to, I promised Mr & Mrs Cake I would foal sit for them today so they can make a long distance delivery." Pinkie said getting up as well making a hand gesture at Twilight of pulling a party poper as she walked out as well and Twilight nodded.
Spike then sat next to me on the left and Twilight scooted closer. "So, you would rather stay with us rather than any of the others?" Twilight asked, I think she was blushing again but I was still finding it hard to tell with her fur color, god help me when it comes to Pinkie, that'll be a nightmare.
"Yeah, I guess it's because I feel more comfortable around you, that and you haven't hurt me or tried to." I say and Twilight was blushing again this time more deeply than before.
"Awe man, it's going to be cool having another guy around to talk to." Spike said as he looked at me. "We can talk about comic books and cute mares and the latest Daring Do books." He added.
"Spike, I don't think he'll have time to do all that, now why don't you go and make some tea for us all and I'll show Blake to the guest room." Twilight said standing up.
"Ok, Twilight." Spike said getting up and going to the kitchen as I got up and picked up my sword.
"It's this way." Twilight said opening a door going into a basement and I followed.
"Your guest room is in the basement?" I asked walking down the stairs behind her.
"Yeah, it was something the last librarian did before he moved to Mainhaton, I was going to turn it into a lab, but I guess I'll have to wait now." Twilight explained.
"Ok, it's not the first time I've heard of a basement room." I said following in Twilight down to the basement room, the room was more spacious than I thought with a single bed in the back right corner a bedside table next to it a 5 draw chest of draws in the back left corner with a desk and chair just next to it with a small two door wardrobe under the stairs. "Not bad, I was expecting something smaller." I said looking around the room as we looked at the sparsely deprecated room.
"Will this do for you?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, it'll do fine." I said leaning my sword up against the foot of the bed as I say on the end of the bed and lay down on it.
"Comfortable?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, I might just crash out for a bit after everything that's happened today." I said suddenly feeling tired as everything finally started catching up my ass I closed my eyes.
"Ok, I'll let you sleep, I'll come get you later." Twilight said walking back up the stairs.
"Cool." I said and fell asleep.
