//------------------------------// // Extra: The meeting. (Twi' and Dash) // Story: Midnight Amethyst // by kioraid //------------------------------// A high pitched whistle echoed through the morning air. "Mmmmrrrgggghhhh." Twilight slowly opened her eyes, her eyes slowly adjusting to the new light intrusion. As she observed her surroundings, she noticed a dim light shone into the room from a nearby window. A constant clatter of train tracks slowly dissipated into white noise. A small squeak came from her when Rainbow's arm wrapped around her, and pulled the mare closer. Twilight’s whole body went limp as she nuzzled closer to Rainbow, enveloped by her warmth. "I love you." Twilight looked up to Rainbow's face. Her mane was tousled and falling over her eyes. "Garnelwhozafrazzle" Rainbow opened her mouth and drool dripped ever so slightly. Well that was attractive. Twilight gingerly kissed Rainbow's forehead. A soft smile spread across her face. Twilight slowly worked her way out of Rainbow's grip, and made her way over to the mirror. FWWEEETTT A train whistle reverberated through the room, painfully reminding the pair that they need to be awake. Do they have to blow that every 5 minutes? Twilight turned her head to where Rainbow was laying. Rainbow's body was now sprawled across the queen sized bed with her wing tips at each end of the bed. Wow, really turning me on today Rainbow. How in the world does she sleep through the noise? Three knocks rang through the room, followed by a low voice. "Princess Twilight Sparkle?" Twilight walked towards the door and slightly opened it. "Yes? Also can you keep it down? My wife is asleep." The stallion at the door seemed to be caught off guard by the comment. "Ye-" Twilight gave him a stern look. The stallion jumped back, and fell into a whisper. "I- I mean yes ma'am." Twilight smiled at the flustered stallion in front of her. The stallion started again. "Well it seems th-" "Stop." "What, why?" Twilight put a hoof on her forehead. "Why does whispering elude you?" The stallion came into realization that he continuously would start to speak in a normal tone. Quickly reverting to a whisper he continued. "Well, princess. The train ride has been delayed. Princess Celestia has requested a private meeting, so we are to take a back way to Canterlot through the mountains."   "I see, Thank you. Now was that so hard?" The stallion put on a blunt expression. "I will withhold any comment." Twilight smiled. "Now you're learning!" Twilight closed the door behind her as she walked back towards the mirror. "Heads up!" Twilight was able to turn around just in time to see a pillow fly into her face. As she removed the pillow she saw Rainbow lying in the bed. "What are you doing up without me Twi'?" "Well, unlike you I can't sleep through repetitive train whistles." Rainbow smiled. "Yeah whatever. You should come back to bed though." Twilight seemed to ponder a bit before she smiled back and responded. "Okay, I could enjoy some lazing around, but before I do that." Twilight tossed a hoof towel towards Rainbow. "I don't want to be laying in your drool." Rainbow started to talk under her breath. "You don't lay in my drool, but you lay in my-" "Rainbow!" Rainbow looked up sharply, putting on a face of pure innocence that did not suit her in the slightest. "What? I didn't say anything." Twilight smirked and lay down next to Rainbow. Rainbow looked at the drool spot under Twilight. "I- I uhh didn't c-" Twilight's lips connected with Rainbow's, her tongue once again starting the fight with Dash’s for control. As per usual, Twilight won this little bout, forcing her way into Rainbow’s mouth and savouring her victory in the only way possible, forcing the kiss to go on until they were both left breathless. As their lips parted, a thin strand of saliva connected them. Rainbow's whole face donned a bright shade of pink as she started to stutter out. "Why did you come back so quickly, and do that?" "Because it would make this better." "Wha-" Before Rainbow could finish a pillow slammed against her from above. "Oh, it is on!" Rainbow managed to scramble three pillows together, throwing one at her assailant as she flew ever so slightly into the air. Twilight swiftly dodged the projectile, and fell into a defensive position behind the bed. "I don't think you know how well I'm versed in pillow warfare Rainbow!" "Nnnnneeeeerrrrrdddddd!" A pillow flew right above Twilight's head grazing the tip of her horn. Twilight levitated the pillow that lay next to her. Oh no Rainbow, now it is on! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stacks of papers scattered across a sculpted mahogany desk. The room was dimly lit showing three large bookshelves decorating the wall all the way to a closed door. Opposite to the bookshelves were three large windows. "Aauuooww nomnomnom."  Princess Celestia sat in front of the desk. Her pink mane covered her eyes and fell to her sides softly. "Yo, nerd!" Princess Luna popped from around Celestia's seat, making Celestia jump in surprise. "Ahhh!" Celestia moved her bangs away from her eyes, and caught her breath. "Luna, don't do that!" "Wow, is that your natural hair color? Don't even have enough energy to make it all magical, and wavy." "Are you just trying to irritate me?" "Yeah, a little. Why so gloom bloom? I thought mornings were your niche." "You know sometimes I miss your royal equestrian voice." Luna stepped back from her daunting sister. "Where did that come? What are you getting at? Celestia looked up and simply smiled. "Oh, because back then I knew you were being annoying by accident." The faces of the sisters were as different as night and day. One a picture of innocence and the other, a venomous attacking snarl. "Yeah whatever bubble-gum. If you keep at the desk job you're not going to be on time for when Twilight and Rainbow come." Celestia seemed to forget all about her morning fatigue, and jumped at the chance to escape the seemingly piles of paperwork.  "Now why would I forget that? I just... lost track of time, yeah." Luna glanced behind herself to give a smirk. "They will be at the mountain station in ten minutes." Celestia saw the look on her sister's face. "Dare I ask what is with the smirk?" "Oh, I just can't wait to see you completely turn your personality for your precious student." "And I can't wait to see you do the same for Rainbow. You know she's married right?" A blush erupted onto Luna's face. "What!? I don't know what you're talking about! She is my favorite that's all!" "Sure, whatever you say Luna." "Sh- Shut up!" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Minute Seven, I've been at war with the smexy unicorn army for too long. With only half the pillow ammunition I seemed to have ten seconds ago. Repair on my cushion fort seems like an impossibility without getting bombarded by the enemy. I on-" A Pillow flew across the room and hit a box shape made of red couch cushions. "Hate to tell you Rainbow, but I don't think comedy is going to work against me." Twilight stared at the 'fort' until Rainbow slowly peaked her head out of the gap she made in the front. As soon as Rainbow met eyes with Twilight, she dove back into cover. "Minute Eight, I met eyes with the commander; I could have sworn I felt my heart skip. I'm not sure if it was from fear... or something worse. I only have one pillow in my munitions pile. I'm going to have to try something drastic." "Oh come now, Rainbow. Now you're just telling me what you're going to do." Rainbow burst through her fort, and threw her pillow straight at Twilight. Twilight saw straight through Rainbow's ambush and dodged to the side, easily avoiding the pillow. "Now why did you th-" Before Twilight was able to finish her sentence the flying pegasus locked into an embrace with her. Rainbow acted immediately, and quickly pressed her lips against Twilight's quickly overpowering the now limp unicorn.  She started to fight back, but felt Rainbow complete take control of the situation. Her strength seemed to be totally dispelled from her body.  "Boop" Twilight was quickly drawn away from the sublime fantasy she had been imagining. Gasping she finally managed to stutter.  "What?" Rainbow smiled as she tapped Twilight's head with a nearby pillow. "I win." Twilight felt her already hot cheeks catch fire. "Wh- what? no, That was unfair!" "All's fair in love and war." "But you can't mix the two!" Rainbow flew off of Twilight and stayed in the air lifting both her arms.  "WOOT!" Twilight started to get up, but still felt weak so she plopped down on some nearby cushions. "Woot?" "Woot." "What is woot?” "Woot is victory." Rainbow had a huge smile on her face looking at the beaten Twilight. Twilight had a displeased look on her face. "You're so stupid." "WOOT!" Three heavy knocks reverberated through the room, followed by low voice. "Princess Twilight, the Royal Sisters are waiting on you and Rainbow." Twilight felt her heart stop. "What! When did we arrive at the station!?! I haven't even combed my mane!" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luna stood looking at the docking station for the train. A majestic glow seemed to flow around her all but one detail. A frown had been on her ever since she had gotten there. She hated this place more than a jail cell. Memories flowed into her thoughts of when she had to escape through the tunnels with her parents and sister. Time could not suppress the lingering feeling she had put with this place. "You know what? I always wondered how it would feel to be that moody." Luna was ripped from the memories she so wanted to forget as she looked towards her sister. "Oh, Tia can you come up with nothing better than a simple insult?" A loud ringing came through the train tunnels signalling the enclosing train. "Oh they're here." Celestia's flowing pink mane was lifted by a shroud of magic. As it dissipated her mane flowed in a perpetual motion reflecting brilliant shades of melding colors. Luna smirked. "I see we are wanting to look top notch." "Say what you will, sister. I will look as a mature and majestic individual." "Because that was so ma-" "I also hear that Rainbow loves the flowing motion of the night sky." Celestia quickly peeked over to her sister. Luna's short light blue mane was no longer visible through the seemingly floating mist which showed the brightest stars in its wake.  "She's married for all sakes Luna!" "I- uhh I don't know what you're talking about. I just wanted to look...mature.....and majestic." The train doors slowly opened, Rainbow flew out looking as happy as cloud on a sunny day. Behind her was a slow walking Twilight with a messed up mane. Blushing, she couldn't make eye contact with the princesses. Luna leaned close to Celestia. "Bet they were doing it."
