//------------------------------// // New Friend // Story: Stalker - Call Of Pony // by SureFreeD //------------------------------// Nikolai stirred in the bed, the warmth wasn't there anymore, somepony was missing. He quickly shot up. Twilight was gone. He franticly looked around the room for her, but she wasn't there. He looked out the window, it was raining, the clouds were dark and gloomy. He stood up from the bed, correcting the sheets properly. He grabbed the trousers from the floor and put them on, he walked towards the door and turned the knob, he made his way downstairs and saw Spike sitting on a couch, yawning. "Hey Nick, Twilight said to give you this." Spike handed him an enveloped letter. "Well, I'm heading out, Rarity and I are going gem hunting!" he jumped off the couch and bolted through the door. Nikolai sat down and began reading. Dear Nikokai The princesses requested my attendence at the royal palace for a few days, I am very sorry to have left you alone, but please, make yourself at home. After all, it's where you live. There is food in the kitchen, if it runs out, there is a bag of bits just under my study desk to buy whatever you need. Just don't waste them on a charity or something okay? Yours faithfully Twilight Sparkle xx Nikolai placed the letter aside. "Looks like am alone for a few days, well there's Spike, I doubt he'll be much company. So, now what?" he asked particulary no one. Suddenly there was a bright flash and a boom. "Damn thunder, I was always afraid of it as a kid." he said again, to no one. 'Nick, stop talking to yourself.' 'Okay...jeez, can't get any comfort without your nose poking around everywhere.' 'Thank you.' 'Whatever, Will.' Nikolai looked around the library, there was nothing to do, as if a rescue, his stomach growled. "Let's feed the stalker!" he stood up and made his way to the kitchen. There was a weird looking salad and a bunch of hay fries. "What do these ponies eat?" he scanned the kitchen one more time, this was his lucky day, his backpack was lying on tge counter. "Hell yeah, where's my kolbasa and!?" he took it and ran off to the couch again, slumped back he zipped open the backpack. There was a weird meat roll inside and a bottle of Cossacks vodka, a pack of Malboro cigarretes and his first aid kit. "Maybe the cigs will take off my hunger, but a lighter..." he spotted a candle. "Aha!" he pulled out a ciggarete out of the pack, along with the vodka bottle. He lit the ciggarette with he candle succesfully and placed it on his lips, closing them around the cig butt and inhaling deeply. He held it for a second before releasing the smoke through his nose and mouth, his need for food slowly disspating. "Ahh...that's the stuff." hebsaid happily and leaned back, enjoying his free time. There was a sudden knock on the library's door, Nikolai brought his head up. "Who could that be, Twilight ain't returning, and Spike is on the gem hunt." he stood up and approached the door, and knocks became louder and more frantic, as if the creature was trying to get it. Nikolai turned the door handle and pulled. His jaw dropped, his eyes widened. "P...p-please...h-h-help...me..." it was a shivering, white pegasus stallion. His dark blue mane dishiveled in dirt and water, same goes for his coat, there were red cuts and bruises on his chest and sides. "P-please, they'll get m-me..." he pleaded again. His bright green eyes full of fear and tears, his right hind leg seemed to be lumping and his left wing was hanging loosely like a dead branch. "Jesus fucking christ, what happened to you? No time, quickly get out of the rain." Nikolai fully opened the door for the stallion to enter. Tears of his own began to develop in his eyes. The sight was simply...sad, what sick bastard could've done this? This poor stallion is now suffering. "Jesus, you poor thing, what happened to you?" Nikolai asked, wrapping a hand over the stallion's neck. "I-I was mugged, then I -tried to fly off, but they cought my wing, and t-t-twisted it." he looked over his wing, dead hanging. "God, those sick bastards, don't worry friend, you're safe here. Now, what's your name?" Nikolai asked. "M-my name i-is White Bolt..." he trailed off again. "You don't need to worry, you're safe now, they won't even touch you anymore." Nikolai reasurred, White Bolt smiled. "Thank you." he said more calmly and collectivly. "Thank you for bringing me in, I don't want to image what would've happened to me if it wasn't for you, thank you, again." the tears stopped flowly and the stallion regained his compousure. "Rest assured, now, let's get you cleaned up!" Nikolai said, motioning for White Bolt to follow him, he did. They soon entered the bathroom, White Bolt sighed. "What is it?" Nikolai looked over the stallion. "Nothing its j-just that...nevermind. Thanks Nicky." White Bolt smiled. "How did you know my name?" Nikolai asked, quite surprised. White Bolt chuckled, "A human doesn't stay hidden forever, I've seen you in Sugar Cube corner, the market and the Everfree Forest, also somewhere outside the library." ye informed. "So you were 'stalking' me?" Nikolai bit his lower lip and raised an eyebrow. White Bolt's cheeks turned into a deep shade of pink. "N-no...I w-wasn't, n-" "Hah, I'm just fuckin' with ya, relax dude, now go take a bath and come to the kitchen." White Bolt nodded in response. Nikolai rubbed the top of White Bolt's head and walked out of the bathroom. 'What the FUCK was that Nick?' 'He's cute, isn't he?' 'Gay boy.' 'Oi!' 'But now you're into stallions!' 'I'm not, he just looks cute, that's all.' 'Uh-huh, like who'll believe you?' 'I'm serious.' 'F...' 'Will, don't.' 'F.U.' 'Bravo! You win a mental kick to the face!' 'I know you like him Nick.' 'So what!? He's cute! End of convo!' 'Jeez...gay boy...' 'FFFFUUU-'
