Chapter 4: Let It Go

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The ambience at the library was much more relaxed now. Our beloved murderer had almost forgotten that his new companions were actually ponies and one dragon because they behaved just like humans.

Dexter and the mares were talking with each other about their worlds, the differencies of them and the things that they have in common. The topic that interested them most was, of course, technology. He didn't want to confuse them so he told him only a bit about it.

"... and pegasi and unicorns are only myths too." He said.

Suddenly a knocking was heard. "Excuse me.“ Twilight went to open the door.

"Uh... Hi Lyra..."

The mint-coated unicorn pushed Twilight away and without a word quickly ran in.

Twilight sighed and said: "Lyra don't..."

Too late. Lyra was already in front of Dexter, staring at him quietly. He did too.

Rainbow facehoofed. "No, not this. Lyra, just stay -" she was interrupted by Lyra's high pitched screaming. Dexter rolled his eyes and nervously swallowed.

Applejack covered Lyra's mouth with her hoof. "Hey, calm sugarcube! Don't scare our guest!"

Lyra gasped as Applejack took her hoof down. "Guest?" She tried to restrain her excitement; shivering was the result. She looked over at silent Main 6 then back at Dexter.

Dexter was already annoyed so he spoke. "Hi, I'm Dexter Morgan, you are Lyra?" He shook her hoof.

She only nodded with mouth open.

"Fluttershy found him near the Everfree." Twilight chimed in.

The yellow pegasus nodded proudly.

Lyra had been lost in thoughts for a while. Fluttershy saw him first? Not fair! ... Oh, what should I say now? ------ Lyra let out only a few mumled words that were supposed to be a sentence. Lyra you're being dumb! What will he think about you?

"Alright, you don't need to say anything." She looked up at him with her beautiful eyes as he said it. I'm kinda having some strange feeling. Something like d'awww. Little bit.

"No!" Lyra came to life, "No I have so many questions for you!"

Fuck it! Everything went dark. He grabbed her by the neck and threw her against the wall. Everypony in the room was scared. The wall was crashed and Lyra was breathing heavily on the floor, blood flowing from her mouth. Dexter only angrily glared at all of this.

THAT would happen if Dexter was totally stupid.

In real he just said: "Okay."

And Lyra's face shined with joy.

Fluttershy suddenly spoke up: "Lyra... um... you shouldn't..."

"Shut up Fluttershy! You undoubtedly asked him a bunch of questions and I can't?" Lyra shouted and immediately regretted that.

The tone that she was talking with made others upset but the only one that spoke up was Rainbow Dash. "Hey, nopony will talk to Fluttershy like that!" she yelled at Lyra.

"Oh, forgive me Fluttershy... I just... can't control right now, you know, a human's there... sorry..."

Fluttershy hid her sad face behind her mane and tremulously replied: "I understand... it's alright..."

"Okay..." Dexter searched for words but didn't find any good ones. He scratched his head and then he told Lyra: "Well, you had some questions, didn't you?"

After about one hour, Lyra had ran out of the questions to ask. She had an interest in his hands so the questions were mainly about them. It's amazing how something so ordinary for humans is so wonderful for ponies. Why, at least for Lyra.

When Dexter told her how much he wants to go back home, she began to think. I won't tell him that I brought him here... But I'm supposed to send him home somehow. I'm supposed to find some spell... But spells don't affect him as he said... so I could create a portal, it's more difficult but it's the only thing I can do for him.

***

It was about 6 pm. Fluttershy was preparing dinner for her little friends. But then she noticed something under a cushion on the couch. She came to the couch and slowly uncovered the thing. It was the bag with 'nothing important' as Dexter said. He's forgotten it here. I should bring him it right now. She touched it with her hoof. Seems that it contains some solid things. She stopped. Um... I think I could just take a peek inside. Fluttershy slowly began to open it but suddenly somepony knocked on the door. Fluttershy yeeped, hid the bag under the cushion and went open the door.

"Hi Dexter," she welcomed him, "what are you doing here?"

"Hi Fluttershy, I think I left my bag here."

"Um... yeah... I don't know..." she told him tremulously. "... Come in... if you want to..."

"Okay."

He walked through the door, waved his hand at Fluttershy's pets and then he began to think. I hope she didn't look into it. Dexter noticed his bag under a cushion and took it. "Good."

"Oh, you found it." she said, then asked: "Would you... um... want to stay here for dinner?"

Dexter scratched his chin. "I don't know... Twilight told me that I should just take my bag and return at the library."

Fluttershy tilted her head. "Uh... okay..."

Dexter thought with a sigh. "Maybe I could stay here for a while, Twilight surely won't mind."

Now Fluttershy raised her head happily. "Great! For dinner I'm having the salad you liked!"

He smiled. Fluttershy went to the kitchen.

After dinner, Dexter wanted to walk away but they started another debate so he stayed.

They chatted about everything. They laughed and cried with each other as they were talking about their life's situations. Fluttershy was so happy that she has somepony to talk with. No, it's not like she has not anypony to talk with, she has friends, of course, but this was different. She had nothing much in common with her friends. They usually didn't pay much attention to her but Dexter did. He was almost like her. Unsure, quiet and not too much assertive. She was glad to finally have somepony who listens to her.

"Oh god, I gotta go back at the library! Twilight must be worried... or worse... angry!"

"I'm sorry, I... I... didn't want to keep you here for so long. I'm sorry." Fluttershy apologized quietly.

"It's not your fault." He stroked her mane. "By the way, the dinner was delicious!"

They said bye to each other and Dexter walked away. Fluttershy smiled as she closed the door.

On his way back he met Pinkie Pie. She was going to the Fluttershy's.

***

Yes, Twilight was angry but not for long. She told him again: "Do not go anywhere alone!" and everything went calm. But then...

"Dexter what do you have in that bag?"

"Nothing important."

She raised her voice. "But there is something in it and I wanna know what it is, even though it's not important!"

Dexter heavily swallowed. "No... it's... ehm... it's... just... too... personal..." What the fuck?!

Twilight was puzzled. "What... too personal?"

"... Really nothing you gotta be afraid of..." Really?

She frowned, put her hoof on the chin and thought about something. "Well."

He let out a sigh of relief in his mind.

"I'm going to sleep, you also should go."

The human nodded.

"What are you going to do tomorrow Dex?" she asked him.

He thought but nothing good came into his head. "I don't know," he said, "probably I'll help... someone with... something... I really don't know."

"That's OK, goodnight Dexter!"

"Goodnight."

Twilight Sparkle went upstairs to her bedroom.

Dexter finished the last Pinkie Pie's cupcake. They're great, she was right. He didn't even took his clothes off and he lied down on the couch. He slowly opened his killing bag and caressed one of the cleavers. His vision started to go red. Dexter closed his eyes for a while. Then he zipped his bag, put it under his cushion, laid his head down and stared into the darkness.

In this moment, Harry showed up. "Dexter, I'm proud of you," he told him, "You can restrain the desire."

"Not for long," Dexter replied in a whisper, "this abstinence drives me crazy."

***

After sleepless night Dexter woke up to another day in Ponyville... And Lyra.

"Hi Dex!"

He rubbed his eyes and looked up at the unicorn. "Huh? Hi... Lyra...?" he said. "What are you... doing here so early?"

"I'm going to show you around the town!"

Twilight Sparkle agreed with that but couldn't go with them, she needed to study. Or something like that. Lyra was happy to introduce other Ponyville ponies to him and show him her friends. And mainly Bon-Bon.

Everypony's eyes were fixed on the human passing by. That made her feel important.

When Lyra and Dexter, which kept his bag with himself even right now, were walking through the streets, they saw Fluttershy waiting in line for some vegetables.

"Hi Fluttershy!" they called at her.

"Oh, Hi Dexter, hi Lyra!" As she replied, she was going to ask the vendor for tomatoes but was suddenly interrupted by a turquoise earth pony that stepped in front of her. Fluttershy didn't say anything, only tilted her head.

The earth pony was asked for five carrots and was ready to pay. Dexter crinkled his eyebrows.

"Don't worry Dexter, that always happens." Lyra said.

"What? Fluttershy lets everyone to treat her like that?"

"Well, she is a big pushover. She just can't make a stand for herself." Lyra answered.

Dexter looked back at Fluttershy. The turqoise mare was already gone so she took her turn but suddenly a brown stallion showed up and stepped in front of her.

Fluttershy sighed sadly. Fluttershy brace yourself at least now! You'll be a pushover even for Dexter! She raised her head, frowned and took a deep breath. "Uh... Excuse me but... You just stepped in front of me..." she told the stallion almost in a whisper.

He turned his head at her and gave her a contemptuous gaze. "I don't think so." he said and turned back at the vendor.

Dexter couldn't stand that anymore.

"Dex!" Lyra yelled at him as he was approaching the insolent stallion. He payed no mind.

Everypony in the line was shocked.

Fluttershy made several steps backward like others as Dexter came to the brown earth pony.

"But I think so." Dexter said calmly.

Everypony in the street and mainly Fluttershy watched it all with rolled eyes.

The stallion looked up at him with a glare. "Oh, you must be the human everypony talks about! Could you be so kind and stay out if it?"

"I couldn't." Dexter immediately replied. "But could you be so kind and let my friend here -"

"Wait a minute human, I need to pay." That stupid stallion showed contempt again and that made Dexter even more upset.

Of course you will pay! "No!" Dexter snapped back, "YOU wait a minute! Fluttershy was going buy something before your fucking ass showed up!"

The stallion glared at him angrily.

"Dex..." Lyra stepped in. "Let it go!"

"Yeah, be good boy and listen to your owner Dex!" the brown one said with a chuckle.

Enough! Dexter threw his bag on the ground and aggressively grabbed the cocky stallion by the neck.

"Dexter no!" Lyra screamed but Dexter didn't stop. She tried to depart them from each other but she just could not.

Everypony watched the scene but nopony spoke up. They actually felt like he deserves that.

The stallion was choking, Dexter's grip was getting stronger and stronger. The stallion tried so hard as he could to push Dexter's hands away but ineffectually. He couldn't take a breath and began to lose his consciousness.

Dexter diabolically smiled and would really kill him if Lyra didn't scream at him again. So he unwillingly released him. "Get - the - fuck - away - bitch!" Dexter shouted.

The half-dead stallion was scared as hell. Dexter looked in his swollen eyes. He gasped heavily and ran away.

Fuck! Dexter realized what just happened here. He looked around, everypony was staring at him.
