The Zone, a thirty kilometer exclusion zone, seperated from the rest of the world, radioctivity and mutants were its inhabitants. A young 'stalker' by the name of Nikolai Odski, travels into the Zone, searching for rare artifacts and money, neither though, anyone knew where his journey would end. Curiosity got the best of the Russian youngster, and so he entered, the man made hell.
The Zone, thats what people called it. Full if radioctivity and mutated animals. All caused by a faulty reaction in the CNPP nuclear power station, it all happened thrity years ago, many people were evacuated because of the disaster, many others stayed in their homeland, the ghost city, Pripyat.
Only the military dared to go in the forgotten city.
Stalkers, the common inhabitants of Zaton, over three hundred of them wandered the Zone, searching for artifacts ans other hidden treasures. Zaton was the first place a rookie would want to visit, Skadovsk, the only safe camp for any human. It was a broken down ship, rusting through it's age, breaking down part by part, but it still held life inside it.
Still, people came to the Zone, legends and myths about, still uncovered artifacts worth billons, massive hidden stashes under some abandoned train station, deep underground.
This cought the youngters attention, and so they came from their home of safety, into survival and war.
Bandits, trashy people, looking for their next hit on some lone wanderer, always in groups, bandits, simple as that.
Stalkers, more experienced in combat, usually they stay away from bandits, but they always end up in a brawl. Their significant suits, simply hand crafted by themselves that rezemble them, their weapons were much more expensive and stronger than the others. Usually they search for artifacts in anomonous places.
Zaton, no one knew what it was before, but now, on some point of views it looked like a swamp. Some structures here and there, spread across the whole place, wrecked down ships and boats, some say it used to be a part of the sea, if it was, but radiation had drained all the water from it, leaving small lakes and puddles across the land.
Nikolai Odski, a young Russian chap has heard all thoae rumors about artifacts and anomalies, his curiosity got the best of him and travelled into the Zone, reaching it's entering point, he wondered - 'Will I find any artifacts?' - soon he will find out.
___
Nikolai held a tight grip to his father's old 9mm pistol in his hand. The bushes and grass brushing across his yellow jacket, his boots were muddy and wet from all the puddles he has walked it, his jacket's hood covered his head and a green mouth mask. His blue eyes stared from another direction to the other. Then he entered into a big clearing, it was all green grass and dead trees, in the distance he could see a couple of large buildings, but the thing that catched his attention was the wrecked down ship with a camprife on the bridge. Clearly illuminating a few stalkers. Nikolai held his foot high and jumped over a boulder, his medkit and a bottle of Cossacks vodka, jingling in his backpack, which was strapped across his shoulders. It was night and nothing can be barely seen, only the moon illuminated the landscape which wasn't enough.
The stars shinning above him and the cricket's ambiet noise, the cold night breeze made Nikolai shiver.
When he came to the end of the clearing, he realized that it was a small cliff, he slowly made his way down. He sighed and wiped off any dust he had on his trousers with his free hand. Then continued walking towards the ship.
On his way there, he stepped in many puddles and wet mud, his shoes were wet and the water was almost penetrating his socks, still the pistol in his grip, he checked it for the tenth time if it was loaded, as it always was.
Nikolai looked at his surroundigs which were limited, becayse the brown grass was towering over him, blocking his line of sight. But that wuickly came to aj nd as he stepped on something hard and metalic. He arrived at Skadovsk, the ship camp, he looked abive his head and saw the label 'Skadovsk' in Russian letters. He ponited his head towards a metal door, which he presumed it was the enterance, he walked towards it only to be stopped.
"Skadovsk is a safe area, holster your weapon"
Nikolai looked around confused, then he looked at the side if the door, there was a small intercom, he holstered his pistol into his backpack and opened the door.
Inside there were several tables scattered around the metal room, with some people leaning over them. Then he saw a bearded man wave to him, as Nikolai got closer he bearded man spoke. "Welcome to Skadovsk my friend, the safest place on Zaton, have a cold or two, I'm Beard, the local barman, if you need some grub, you call me!" he said in a deep, enthusiastic and some little happy voice, he was smiling, he gestured his hand. Nikolai simply nodded and shaked his hand.
Nikolai made his way up the wide stairs, two stalkers were making their way down in a conversation. "No, no no, is this, bread!" Then they both laughed at he random joke, Nikolai ignored it and continued his way up.
He finished climbing the stairs, there was a small hallway with a stalker sitting on a chair at the end. And another pair of stairs to the right, Nikolai entered a doorway to his left, there were two more doorways, one led a safe room with lots of lockers ans the other full of beds. He turned to the room with the beds.
He spotted a single bed in the corner and quickly claimed it for himself, he unstrapped his backpack and threw it on the bed, then unzipped his jacket and flapped the hood back, revealing his dark brown, short hair. He dropped the jacket on the bed too, revealing the brown t-shirt, then removed his mask from his mouth.
Nikolai lazily dropped his body on the bed, relaxing as he made himself comfortable. No blanket, that was alright, the inside of the ship was warm enough to keep him throuh the night.
He began to close his eyes. When a Russian accent voice called out.
"Brother, come down to the bar, drink with us!"
Then the sound of a crashing bottle was heard, following a series of Russian curses.
"Come om, stand up, it is your first night here!" The voice insisted.
Nikolai sighed and stood up, wrapping his jacket around him again, Nikolai ans the unknown stalker- bandit, he was dressed in a black cloak and a darknhoodie hung over his back.
They came down at the bar, with multiple cheerings and whistles. "What is your nane my friend?" Beard asked. "Nikolai" he answered.
From that, the night went on, with lots of drinking and cheering, shouting and small games. Nikolai felt accepted ajd trusted.
'More like a welcoming party' he thought to himself.
Nikolai groaned, his eyes were sore and his throat was burning, his body was numb and he couldn't feel a thing. He opened his eyes, only to realized that he was lying on the metal floor, with a dozen of vodka bottles near him.
He sat up and looked around, no one was there, only Beard was standing behind the barstand. "Ah, my friend Nikolai, you're awake, good" Beard crouched and fiddled with something under the barstand. "W-where is everyone?" Nikolai asked, still unable to collect himself. He had never drank so much, or partied before. "Ah, same as everyday, they go out and hunt, kill, discover."
He stood up, his feet were aching and it felt like his muscles were locked. He streched out his arms wide and scratched his neck. "You should get out, is beautiful day!" Beard raised from the stand and picked up a brand new AK-47u, the wood stock and the metalic body were in perfect condition. "Never fired, brand new, here you go, for rookies." Beard tossed the rifle at Nikolai, which he quickly grabbed and examined the weapon. "Is good, very good." Nikolai smiled and slid off the magazine, it was fully loaded. "Almost forgot." Beard once again crouched and stood up, in his hands there was a green box with a label on it.
'5.556'
"Here, ammo." Beard handed the ammo box to Nikolai. He opened it and it was full of rifle bullets and two spare magazines. "Is free?" Nikolai aksed which seemed like a stupid question on his current state. "Da, new guest get present, this is yours." Beard nodded.
Nikolai thanked him and made his way upstairs into the room full of beds to get his backpack and mask. He zipped up his jacked and slid the hoodie over his head, strapping the mask to his mouth and placing the rucksack on his back, he checked his father's pistol and slid it in his trousers' pocket. He stuffed the ammo box in the backpack and grabbed the rifle in his hands.
He walked past Beard which waved him goodbye, he opened the door, the first thing he heard and saw, was a stalker and a bandit fighting with their bare hands.
"Come on you suka!" the bandit mocked.
"Oh, I'm going to kill you!" the stalker shouted as he launched his fist into the bandit's face, punching his jaw, the bandit took a step back and smiled manicly.
"Is that all bitch?"
Nikolai simply stared at the idiot's brawl, expecting that one of them would do something stupid.
"I don't have time for dis shit!" the stalker yelled, pulling out an old, rusty MP-5 from his back. The stalker emptied the entire clip into the bandit's body as he fell to the ground, a pool of blood surrounding it.
"Motherfucker should've known." someone spoke behind Nikolai, the accent was definetly american, or somewhere near it. Nikolai turned around only to see a gas mask eyeing him.
"The fuck you lookin' at, commie?" he snapped at Nikolai for no reason, but he stepped aside and the masked man walked outside.
___
Nikolai came into a big clearing, it was all quiet and calm. Then he saw something strange, the air was warping around itself. The scenario was weird and, Nikolai thought it was an artifact anomaly, so he walked closer, that was his mistake.
As he walked, it felt like it was dragging him in, he stopped dead in his tracks, but he was still moving. His eyes widened and his heart stopped.
He was being pulled in.
A large force struck his body, making him stagger and lose control over himself, the last thing he felt was the rifle in his hands, then he blacked out.
__
"What the...?!" a muffled voice came from somewhere. "What happened?!" another voice came from somewhere, Nikolai was uncouncious, he didn't feel a thing, his subcouncious knew there was someone near him.
"Quickly, get...-" a voice called out, it sounded feminine, since when do females arrive in the Zone?
"What's tha-...face?" the voices became more muffled and muted. It was until there was quietness. A bliss of silence scattered across the area Nikolai was in.
"It's bleeding!" the female voice called out, destroying the silence in Nikolai's mind.
His body restarted, the blood circulating through the veins, his heart and brain pumping, his lungs fueling up with air. As his chest rose and deflated, the beings around him gasped in surprise.
"Oh my, it breathes!"
"Well, DUH, it's a living creature Ra-ty"
"Ra-ow Dash, be polite to the creature, it's wounded!"
"Gir-s, that's enough!" the female voice yelled at the ones that were arguing.
Nikolai groaned, his finger twiched on the rifle's trigger, he was still holding it. But in an awkward position, his arms were spread around, only one hand holding the rifle, his legs were streched, the hoodie and mask still covered his face, it was like lying on bed, but he wasn't.
Nikolai twiched his left eye, slightly opening it, he saw a blue blur hanging above him, as his vision cleared and his mind centered, he saw a sky.
A clear blue sky, with clouds?
No, this was different from the Zone, in that place the sky was gray and dull, but here, it was colourful and somewhat happy.
"He's awake!" one of them whispered loud enough for Nikolai to hear. His arm moved, bringing the rifle to his chest, he moved it in front of his eyes, it was in a perfect condition. Thank the Zone for that.
"Umm..."
"Huh?"
"What?"
"You can talk?"
"Yes?"
"Cool"
With who did he just talk to? Nikolai fully opened his eyes and sat up, receiving a gasp from everyone around him. Then he saw the silliest thing in the whole goddamn world.
Ponies.
A white one with a beautifully curled, violet mane. On the top of it's head was a, horn? It's blue eyes gazed upon his clothing, which was unusual for a pony to be interested in fashion.
He moved on examining the ponies.
A blue one with a rainbow styled mane, it had wings, a pegasus pony, he couldn't believe it, the crature was a myth and now that myth was standing in front of him. The pony's pink eyes were staring right into his own ones.
A lavender one, with a horn, her styled purple mane with strips of red and a deeper volume of purple. It's purple eyes were staring directly into Nikolai's rifle.
'What is this imaginery crap?' that was his first thought.
He rubbed his eyes to see if he's not hallucinating, it was real, Nikolai looked at his surroundings, a flat green field, perfect for a sniper shot.
Now, surrounded by three talking ponies who helped him survive that anomaly. He tightly squeezed the rifle's handle, his breathing became more frequent and deep. The ponies noticed that.
"Are you alright darling, that fall must've hurt 'terribly'!" the white pony spoke. Only receiving a concerned glare from Nikolai's blue eyes. Which in fact were much smaller than theirs.
He then grabbed the rifle with both hands. "What in the hay is that, metal thingy, thing?" the blue-cyan pegasus asked, pointing towards his rifle. He squeezed it tighter. His glare changing back and forth, glancing amongst the 'talking ponies. It was minutes of silence.
"So umm, care to tell us who you are, or what you are?" the pegasus asked, eyeing Nikolai. It was unsettling, communicating to other species in the same languege. "I-..." he couldn't spit out the words. Suddenly the purple unicorn took a few steps towards the stalker.
"My name is Twilight Sparkle, what's your name?" she said with a smile. "N-Nikolai..." his words trailed off as he pronaunced his name. Twilight extended a friendly hoof, Nikolai looked at it, the shade was the same as her fur, it looked different from the ponies he had seen. He took it. It was softer, not hard like a real hoof, only like a hardened marshmallow. He shook it gently.
"Ahh..." Twilight moaned gently.
Twilight broke the grip and took a step back, gesturing towards the white unicorn. "This is Rarity, owner of the Carousel Boutique." then she turned to he cyan pegasus. "And this is Rainbiw Dash, Equestria's best flier!" with the last sentance Rainbiw Dash flapped her wings open, bringing a hoof to her chest.
Nikolai thought that the cyan one was kind of cute.
"So, how did you get here, looks like you are from some kind of civilization, care to tell?" Twilight was enthusiastic to learn everything about Nikolai. He looked over Rainbow Dash, which she smiled. "Where do I start off?" he stood up, he was taller than the ponies, no more than a foot high. "Wow, you're tall!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.
He snuck the rifle in his backpack and crouched, eye leveling the ponies. The three ponies had smiles on their faces, Nikolai began to speak.
"Well-..." he was interrupted by a ruffling noise, it was coming from his backpack, Rainbow Dash wasn't in her place. "Hey, what is this, C-cossocks, vodka?" Rainbow said as taking the bottle of vodka from the backpack, she opened it with her hoof and sipped from it, ending up coughing. "Ugh, what is this stuff agh, oh my gosh, it burns!?" she began scratching her tongue. "Silly little pony, vodka is bad bad for you!" Rainbow Dash calmed down and stopped scratching her tongue. She smiled.
Twilight, Rarity, Rainbiw Dash whuch was wobbling from side to side, and Nikolai were walking down an old cobblestone path, the pony's hooves colliding with the stone was the only noise around them. Rainbiw Dash, she was losing her balance, wobbling from side to side, thats when Twilight spoke. "Rainbow, are you alright, you seem a bit, off." Twilight was concerned about her behaviour. Rainbow Dash burped, then Rarity reacted to it quickly. "Rainbow Dash, manners please!" She exclaimed at the wobbling pegasus. "Nah, Nikolai here, mah new best friend, doesn't mind, do you?" she nuzzled his leg and looked up.
"This pony is pissed drunk, how much did you drink from my vodka?" Nikolai asked. "Half, maybe more, who cares anyway, we can make more!" Rainbow Dash said with a drunken grin across her face.
Everyone sighed annoyed, except for Nikolai who kept his temper over the drunk pony.
Nikolai took out his PDA, which looked like a phone but more advanced, he pressed the power button, only to recieve a negative beep and a 'CONNECTION LOST' on the screen. He quickly snuck it back in his backpack before any of the ponies noticed.
Rainbow Das was walking close to Nikolai, too close. "Personal space meaning anything to you?" he looked at the pegasus, which smiled and poked his ribs with her hoof. "Stop that." Nikolai said. Rainbow Dash giggled and poked him again. "Boje moi, stop that you little pony!" Nikolai snapped.
Rainbow Dash, expression turned right around from happy and drunk into sad and tear filling. She looked away, lowering her head down, she sniffed. Then the cyan pegasus felt something run through her back, it was Nikolai, gliding his hand across he spine. "I'm, s-sorry for that, I should've not shouted at you." She lookes up to him with a warm smile. She wrapped her front hooves around his neck and buried her snout into his shoulder, he returned the gesture by wrapping his arms around her body. Their moment interrupted by Twilight clearing her throat. "Shouldn't we go?" she asked with a bit of growl in her voice.
Nikolai ajd Rainbow Dash loosened their grip, then he stroked her mane with his hand, she blushed to the touch.
'This pony is getting adorable with every second' he thought in his mind.
__
They were still walking down the cobblestone path, taking in the green scenery.
"So, have you thought about staying somewhere?" Twilight broke the silence. "Not really, I came here unwillingly so, yeah, I don't." Nikolai frowned. "Well you can stay at the library, I've always got some free space." Twilight said. "Y-you live in a 'library'?" Nikolai was about to giggle but he kept it in. "That's what I get from every newcomer." She facehoofed. "Hey, I didn't mean to be offensive, just, nevermind, it sounds good though." to hus surprise Twilight giggled.
__
Up the path they saw a small cottage, it didn't look like a library so Nikolai was curious. "That's not a library." Nikolai said dissapointed. "We're visiting Fluttershy to fix those bruises on your chest and leg." Twilight said without looking away from the cottage's door. Nikolai looked down at his chest, a big piece of fabric was missing exposing a small part of his chest, the shirt he was wearing was gone, only the jacket covered his upper body. Then he glanced over to his right leg, the trousers were ripped, his skin on the leg was scraped and there were bruises on the upper part.
While inspecting himself, the ponies came to a stop in front of the small cottage's door. Twilight knocked three times, hoofsteps could be herd as someone opened the door. It was a orange pony, blond mane and a Stetson hat.
"Howdy Twi!" she said, from the looks she's a mare. "Hi Applejack, have you seen Fluttershy?" Twilight asked. "Sure hav', she be upstairs, Ah jus' came here ta move som' furniture for 'er." Applejack stepped back inside, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Twilight entered inside, followed by the injured stalker. "Whoa nelly!" Applejack exclaimed and took a step back from Nikolai. Twilight trotted over to his side. "Don't worry AJ, he's with us." Twilight said, as Nikolai scratched Twilight behind the ear with his fingers. "Oh...that feels nice." she closed her eyes and smiled, taking in the good feeling. He stopped scratching the unicorn's ear and looked at Applejack, who was standing quietly.
A small figure came down the stairs, everyone had their attention to it. A pegasus, with a soft, yellow coat and a pink mane that hung loose over half of her face. She squeaked as it saw the injured stalker, as looking at the wounds her motherly insticts came to life. "Oh no, look at you poor thing, we must fix you up right away, come, this way!" she flew over to a big couch and gestured for Nikolai to sit on it. He walkes over to it, unstrapping his backpack and setting it on the floor, he sat on the couch with a sigh. All the ponies were looking at him. "Is that fabric on your face naturally, or is it a mask?" Rarity asked. Without any answer Nikolai slid off his hoodie and removed the mask from his mouth, exposing his perfectly shaped, snow-white teeth. "Nice teeth." Rainbow Dash commented. "Well kept mane-er...hair." Rarity complimented. "Thanks." Nikolai smiled.
The four ponies were simply staring at him for a few minutes, then Fluttershy snapped. "Okay, remove that and lay down." She gestured towards the yellow jacket Nikolai was wearing. "B-but we humans wear clothes for a reason." Nikolai chatted back. "Nonsense!" Rarity exclaimed and grabbed the jacket with her teeth, pulling it from Nikolai's body. Exposing his muscle tonned body, his biceps were simply buffed. The ponies neared him. "Now, for those wounds." Fluttershy said, hovering with a bug medical box. She opened it and took a small bottle of pills. She handed Nikolai three pills, and recieved a glass of water from Rainbow Dash. He put the pills in his mouth and drank them down with the water. Soon he felt dizzy, Nikolai rested his head back on the couch, breathing in deeply. Soon, he drifted off, he heard giggles as his vision slipped.
Nikolai awoke, he was lying on something soft and cushy, and warm. It looked like he was still tired and didn't have a good time sleeping. Because something was nugding his chest continuesly. Then somepony entered the room. It was Twilight, levitating a metal tray. She quietly placed it on the nightstand. "Hey, something for you two." she walked out from the room, descending downstairs. "Two...?" Nikolai quietly mumbled, after that, something shifted. He looked down, only to see a sleeping cyan pegasus on top of him, a hoof under her chin. Quietly resting her head on Nikolai's chest. Everytime he took a breath in, Rainboe Dash lifted up, when he exaled, she descended down on his tummy. Rainbow Dash slightly moaned. His eyes widened, all he wanted to do is stand up and run away, but the sight of a sleeping pony was adorable, so he let her stay on him, it would he a 'sin' to rudely wake her up. He smiled and placed his hand on Dash's side.
Nikolai shifted his head towards the nightstand, to see a handful of his Kossacks vodka bottles standing. He looked around the room, a few empty vodka bottles were scattered around the room, the ponies were drinking so hard. His lips felt sticky and wet, Nikolai touched his lips with his fingers and pulled away, leaving a trail of salivia between his mouth and his finger. The liquid was cold, definetly not his salivia, but someone, more like somepony else's salivia. He began rubbing his finger off the bedsheets.
"Mmm...huh..wha?" Rainbow Dash moaned. "W-what h-happened?" she asked and stood up, still standing on Nikolai. "You were sleeping on me." Nikolai stated, sliding his hand off Rainbow. "W-was I, oh, guess I was drinking too much of that vodka of yours, wow look there's some more!" Rainbow Dash stated and looked at Nikolai, straight in the eyes. He looked around the room. "H-how did you drag me here?" he asked. Rainbow Dash giggled and set herself in a lying position again, running a hoof up Nikolai's chest. "We didn't drag you here silly, Twilight used her magic to levitate you." she smiled. "What about the booze?" he asked looking at the cyan pegasus was still on top of him. "Twilight, she's a unicorn, she can do magic and all sorts of stuff...but we can do something else...here." she said seducevly. "You're just drunk, you'll come tonyour senses soon." he said trying to find a way out. "But you smooched me, in my sleep, but I felt it." Dash said, still lying on top of him. "D-did I, aw crap." he frowned. "Why are you sad, you don't need to, I'm always here~." she giggled. "D-did we...you know...got intimite with eachothe-" he was interrupted by a hoof to his mouth. "We didn't, don't worry, we could if you li-Whoa!" Nicolai picked Rainbow Dash up from his chest and set her next to him, he stood up. "Hey come back here!" she yelled. "No, you are weird, and drunk, get some sleep and it will wear off." he said as picking up the metal tray. He walked out of the room and eyed a small staircase, with whispers coming from downstairs. He began walking down, picking up some of the conversation. "Did you see what he did!?" the voice belonged to Fluttershy. "They were SO cute together!" that one belongs to Twilight. "I say, they make a divine couple!" Rarity of course. "Ah tink' that's weird, Ah mean, they seemed ai'ght but, there's somethin' 'bout it Ah can't place right." someone cleared their throat, the four mares stared at Nikolai, he had a 'not amused' expression on his face. "So you planned this, first you steal my booze then 'multiply' it, get the bloody pegasus drunk and let her stay on top of me?" No one answered. "Seriously, you should've been smarter, now, where's my stuff?" he looked around the room for his jacket and backpack, failing to locate them. "You're not going out until you recover!" Fluttershy snapped at Nikolai, to his surprise. She then lowered her head in embarrasment. "I agree but, I can't stay with a horny pegasus next to me!" they simply chuckled at his statement.
Suddenly something jumped on Nikolai's back, it was Rainbow Dash, she locked her hind legs around his waist and her forelegs around his neck. "Whoo, leapfrog, piggyback ride, whatever you call it!" she yelled drunkly and burped after that. "Ow, my back still hurts you know!" he flipped Rainbow Dash over, failing to do that, they ended up face to face, Dash's tummy pressing against his chest. "Nice move, big boy." She leaned it, pressing her muzzle against his nose. "How about now?" she asked seducevly with half closed eyes. Nikolai looked at the pony with disgust and placed her down on the floor. "I'm going out, fresh air." he gulped. "Where's my backpack and jacket?" he asked looking amongst the ponies.
Fluttershy walked over to him with the backpack in her mouth, he snatched it from her. Then Rarity was levitating a stiched up yellow jacket, he grabbed that too and zipped it up.
He walked outside, leaving the five mares behind in awe. "That was rude." Rarity huffed. "I like him, alot!" Rainbow Dash stated. Twilight and Fluttershy simply shrugged.
__
He slid his hoodie on and atrapped the mask to his mouth. Walking down the same path he came. Following the cobblestone path he saw something familiar.
"Ah, I do not know how I'll continue this, that pony has been bothering me ever since I arrived. I'm going back to the anomaly, to see if I can find anything useful, maybe that purple unicorn might help me."
Nikolai snuck the note into his pocket and continued on. He was keeping tabs on his current thoughts, it was preety useful if he forgot something. That cyan pegasus has been annoying him ever since, but something was telling him to keep his hands off her.
He arrived at the anomaly, same as before it was warping around itself. He took a step closer, then another, and other step until he was pushed back with massive force. He flew across the grass and slammed his back into a tree, the air in his lungs was stolen away, his body went limp and he blackened out.
__
Time passed on aa Nikolai was lying motionless on the grass. Blood was coming out of his mouth, small dripples began to penetrate the mask. His eyes were closed and he was had a shallow breathing rate.
"Hurry!" a faint voice was heard in the distance. "Look, there he is!" it yelled again, the voice was becoming muffled. "Hang on Nikolai, we'll get you back, and patch you up." "Quick, they're coming!" another voice called out, this time much deeper and masculine.
The voices were muted.
Another minute passed, after minutes came hours. Nikolai began to gain conciousness slowly, he moaned. "Oh thank Celestia, he's alive!" a series of fiddling noises were made, after that, Nikolai opened his eyes. Rainbow Dash was hovering over him. "Ohmygosh, are you okay?!" she almost yelled. Nikolai rubbed his eyes, and looked staright into Dash's big, magenta eyes. "I'm f-fine, w-what happened?" he asked curiously, remembaring the anomaly. "It was that warping air thing that pushed you, don't worry, it's gone." Dash smiled. Nikolai's eyes widened at the words that Dash juat spat out. "What?! You closed that anomaly?!" he shouted. Dash scratched her neck. "Umm, yeah Twilight closed it, I don't see it as a bad thing." "That was my only ticked to go back to the Zone AND my home!" he grabbed Dash's shoulders and pulled her in. "Eeek!" Dash squaled as her stomach collided with his. "Do you fucking know what you stupid ponies done?!" he growled. "We're not stupid, Twilight closed it to prevent it from hurting you again, or anypony else!" Dash answered back. Nikolai squeezed Dash shoulders. "H-hey, that hurts stop i-OUCH!" "How will I go back home?! I have a fucking family there!" he yelled right in her face. Dash tried to pull herself away but to no avail, Nikolai was holding her tightly. "L-let me go!" Dash flapped her wings. Using all his muscle power, Nikolai threw Dash against the wall. With a massive impact on her back she staggered and fell to the ground, trembling. Nikolai stood up and reached for his pocket. And grabbed his father's 9mm pistol. He ponited it at Dash's head.
Rainbow Dash had her eyes closed, her body trembling in fear and pain, curled up to a ball, hiding the tears away from Nikolai. "Do you realize what you ponies have done, you destroyed my one way ticked to home, what if I destroy your ticket to live?" he threatened. Dash simply sobbed at his words. "You're making a mistake Nikolai." he turned around, it was Twilight with an angry, mixed with sad expression. "You horses have already made it, the only thing that couls take me back and end this colorful nightmare." he said bluntly with a cold look and the pistol's aim still ponting at Rainbow Dash. "P-please, don't do it, I-I want t-to live...please." Dash mumbled under her sobbings. Twilight's eyes watered at Dash's words. "Don't do it, it will be the biggest mistake you've ever made in your entire live." she began to sob.
"The only mistake I made...is accepting you ponies into my life." he turned to Rainbow Dash. "This ends now."
"RAINBOW!" Twilight shouted as Nikolai pressed the trigger, using momentum, Twilight cast a quick shield spell on Rainbow Dash that worked perfectly fine. The bullet hitbthe shield and evaporated into thin air. Nikolai was surprised by the sudden spell, he eyed his back which was simply lying on the floor. "Don't even think about it!" Twilight yelled, tears pouring down her eyes and cheeks. To her surprise Nikolai snatched his rifle from the backpack. Grinning evily he clicked off the safety. He cocked the rifle and aimed it directly at Twilight's head. "Protect yourself from this." he said bluntly, with that, he pulled the trigger, going fully automatic. Rapid gunshots were heard across the whole cottage, all thrity one bullets deploted on Twilight.
'CLICK'
He slid off the magazine without any care and slammed in a new one, viciously cocked the new bullet into the chamber. Another thrity bullets were ready.
The smoke cleared in front of Nikolai's eyes. Revealing a crying Twilight with a gaping wound on her upper foreleg. Nikolai smiled through his mask. "Looks like your pony magic doesn't work on factory bullets does it." he mocked Twilight. She looked to to him, her eyes bloodshod, ears flopped down, mouth slightly hanging open, tears falling down freely like water fountants.
He took a step towards her.
He viciously stuck he rifle's end in Twilight's mouth, sending her recoiling from the impact. "Make a decision, reopen that anomaly, or you and your multicoloured friend dies." Nikolai started. "W-why are you d-doing this, we haven't done a-anything wrong." Rainbow Dash spoke from her corner. "Hah, yeah, seperating me from MY homeland? You horses should've known better." he squeezed the trigger but not firing. Twilight squealed in fear for her own life. Nikolai looked between Rainbow Dash and Twilight, both scared out of their minds. "So, no answer, as you wish." he pulled the trigger, immiting a loud bang as Twilight's throat turned into a blood red, and bone white crumble. Spraying blood on Nikolai's face and all over the place. Rainbow Dash began spazzing out. "YOU KILLED HER, YOU CELESTIA FORSAKEN CREATURE YOU KILLED HER!" Dash quickly leapt from her place unto Nikolai. Being a much more experienced fighter, Nikolai took out the rifle from Twilight's gaping mouth and pointed it at Rainbow Dash's body, all in one swift motion. "I'm sorry Rainbow." he squeezed the trigger, emptying half the magazine into Dash's stomach. She quickly fell do the floor surrounded by her own pool of blood.
They were both dead.
Nikolai stood up, looking between the two small, dead ponies. Surrounded and covered in their own blood, Twilight's throat was gone, a big fleshy hole at he back of her neck. Dash's body was covered with several deep holes, fresh blood spillingbout of them. "The Zone is a harsh place." he closed his eyes. "But a raging Russian is more dangerious." he chuckled as his own, lame joke.
"Oh, I heard something from downstairs and-" a blood curdling scream came after those words. Nikolai swiftly turned around to see a panicking Fluttershy. "W-what ha-have y-you done?!" she squeaked. Nikolai turned his rifle at Fluttershy. "You little shit." he pulled the trigger. The bullet went straight into Fluttershy's forehead and came out at the other end, causing her to cease floating and to fall on the floor. Her eyes rolled up as her life depleted.
Satisfied with his kills, Nikolai began to laugh. "This is so much fun than the Zone, getting to kill ponies, I LOVE IT!" he continued to laugh. He kicked the front door with his leg, causing it to open instantly. Before the laughing Nikolai there was a blue piny standing in front of him, her mane was with different types of cyan and blue. "Hey, I'm Colgate, Fluttershy's friend, you seen her around?" the blue mare smiled. Nikolai laughed. "Of course, you'll be joining her soon!" with that he tossed the rifle aside and grabbed Colgate's neck, pinning her to the ground. "I've always hated that toothpaste." he joked at the choking pony. "S-somepony, help me!" Colgate tried a plea for help, but nothing was around. Nikolai squeezed Colgate's neck harder than before, she looked upon the blood covered stalker. Tears began filling out of her eyes. "Why do ponies always cry when they die?" he asked particulary no one. After seconds of choking the helpless pony, her eyes eyes rolled up as her last breath died down. Her mouth hanging open, her eyes still covered in the dead tears. Nikolai stood up and looked at the motionless mare. Her limbs spread widly. "That was fun." he shrugged and took he rifle.
__
Minutes have passed since ge has murdered the four mares, he still hungers for that glory of a kill. Soon he neared some kind of town. Happy ponies trotted and talked to each other as they passed by. "You're all gonna have a really bad day ponies." he cocked ghe rifle, then proceeded into the town, the AK resting on his shoulder as he carried it. When he was near enough for eye sight, all the ponies stared directly at the gore covered stalker. A few whispers and gasps were heard in the silence. Nikolai brought down the rifle at the crowd of gathering ponies. Ready to fire it until something pulled his trousers, he looked down and saw a small orange filly with a purple mane smiling at him. He tilted his head, grabbing the filly's neck and pulling it up to his face. It squealed and squirmed at the filly tried to lose Nikolai's grasp. But he was much stronger. He crunched the filly's neck in his arms and tossing it on the ground. He killed a small pony. All the ponies in the crowd had their mouths hung open. Soon every one of them began screaming and running away from the crazed killer. He brought down the rifle on opened fire on the panicking ponies. The bullets were penetrating twenty or more ponies. Most of the crowd fell down on the ground, either dead, wounded or just cowering.
Soon the town was quiet, not anliving creature was around, even the birds stopped singing, it was a dreadful day for Ponyville, or maybe across the whole Equestria itself. Princess Celesta had been informed of this massacre done by a unknown creature with a deadly weapon. She took immidiate action for this. Already ponies had lost their lives on that unfortunate day, but Ponyville will be restored to it's normal, happy state. Celestia swore to do this by any means possible and get rid of the killer.
'Ahh, it feels great, I've never done something like this in my life, looks like the bandits in Zaton were right after all, killing innocent things IS fun after all, maybe I'll rob a shop tomorrow and pillage some more, as long as my ammo doesn't run out.
He snuck the newly written note in his poket and leaned against a tree, it was night, the stars and moon shinning above him, clearly illuminated the dead town with the still dead bodies of ponies.
Nikolai awoke at the sound of whispers and giggles. He opened his eyes, only to view a white ceiling hanging above him, he quickly turned his head to the right and the sight startled him.
Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack and Fluttershy were standing next to him, smiling, their eyelids half closed. "Mornin' hun." Applejack smiled and gave him a small kiss on the cheek. He backed away from the ponies, further into the bed. Wait, he was in a bed?
Nikolai looked around his surroundings, indeed he was in a white room in a bed, red sheets and a bottle of red wine standing on a nightstand next to him. He slightly opened his mouth, trying to utter words, but something restriced him.
Without any warning Twilight jumped on the bed, snuggling down next to Nikolai. Followed by Rainbow Das who snuggled to his other side. Then Rarity who sat on top of him, nuzzling his neck. Fluttershy allowed herself next to Nikolai's waist. And Applejack, who layed herself down next to Fluttershy. Soon he was surrounded by ponies, nuzzling and shifting next to his body. "May someone explain what the hell is going on?" he looked through out the mares, they were all looking at him seducevly.
Something tapped his shoulder.
"Wake up, evil creature." he looked around the room, the mares were gone.
__
The sudden jolt of yelling made Nikolai's eyes open menacly, he was under the same tree, but staring into a pair of big, pink pony eyes. It began to speak.
"So the creature that has slaughtered many of my little ponies has finally awoken, does it speak?" it was Princess Celestia, the goddess of the sun. She raised an eyebrow. "Of course I talk, what the crap were you expecting?" he chuckled. "I would suggest to keep your vulgar vocabulary to yourself, now, I ask the question...why did you murder them?" Celestia awaited an answer. Nikolai streched and yawned. "Well...that Twilight closed the only ticket I had home, so I removed her ticket for life, if you get me." he shifted in his seat.
Celestia's horn began to glow. "Pick your actions carefully, do you regret about killing the pony that loved you? Do you regret that you killed close friends of yours, Twilight and dear Flutteshy? Do you regret about chocking an innocent mare to death by the name of Colgate? Do you regret that you murdered half of Ponyville and killed an innocent filly pegasus?" those words hit Nikolai hard, so hard his brain had lost %2 of his brain cells, proccessing the information. "I-I...d-do I...yes?" he stuttered, thinking about his past memories about the ponies. Celestia's horn touched Nikolai's chest. In a bright flash, it all came back normal.
__
"H-hey, let me go!" Dash yelled in Nikolai's grasp. He was about to throw her into the wall with all his might but something stopped him. He remembared all those memories of him killing them. Nikolai looked at Dash's eyes. He pulled her in fast and hugged her tightly. "Oh my Dashie, I'm SO sorry, don't be mad." he began to tear up. Rainbow returned the embrace, wrapping her hooves around his body. "I'm not mad Nicky." she giggled. "Oh Dash..." Nikolai could feel her warm body press against his, her heartbeat racing along with his, feeling her limbs around his body. Her breathing.
"Ain' tha' cute." Applejack was sitting on the couch with Twilight and Fluttershy. "It's so good to see two different species fall in love, it's a rare thing." Twilight smirked. Both Rainbow Dash and Nikolai blushed at their words. They still held their grip on eachother. "Now come on ya'll, we gottam show Nikolai 'round town!" Applejack said enthusiasticly, trotting over Nikolai and Rainbow Dash. They all laughed happily.
__
'So, that evil thought in my mind was finally gone, free from the massacre I made, I agreed to go with Applejack around town, might as well check on Colgate, if she's still breathing hah, of course she is. Thank god that Celestia came to me and used that rewinding spell on me, I couldn't be more thankful. Here I am, from the Zone and into the world of ponies. Might as well make something out of it after all. I swear to my homeland and my mother that I won't hurt a innocent thing ever again! Tomorrow is the day that I go out with my new friends, and I know there is something between me and Dashie, as Twilight said. Everytime I say 'Dashie' she simply blushes, oh that sweet pony.'
Nikolai snuck the note into his pocket and took a glimpce at the sleeping cyan pegasus next to him. He kissed her forehead. "Everything, is gonna be alright." he whispered and slowly drifted off to a long, resting slumber.
__
Nikolai awoke with a loud gasp, waking Rainbow Dash up in the process. "What's the matter, ugh...go back to sleep hon." Dash placed a hoof on Nikolai's stomach.
He looked out of the window, it was still night. Nikolai sighed and dropped his head on the pillow. He turned face to face with Rainbow Dash, she was already sleeping deeply. He began to close his eyelids and drift off again. His eyes widened.
In what house was he, on who's bed was he lying in, why was he sleeping next to a pegasus pony? What in he world was he doing?
He ignored that thought and moved closer to Dash, then he completely closed his eyes, and was taken away by the tiredness.
Before going into full sleep mode, Nikolai heard something familiar, sonething that reminded him of the Zone, a vechile that is, it sounded like rottors spinning, but the anomaly was destroyed, so there's no way even a 'helicopter' could enter Equestria, and how did Nikolai know that name? Equestria. The land for unicorns, pegasi, earth ponies, griffons and other nasty things. But a single name ringed in his head, a name from the Zone, a man send to investigate the failure of Operation Fairway, some say that he would travel to the ghost city Pripyat, and take whatever actions needed to escape the Zone, to return to his homeland. And that man, was.
Major Degtyrev.
Said to be brave, to be one of 'them'. To restore the Zone into it's natural, life keeping way. But no one has heard of Major Degtyrev ever since he descended into the Zone.
Nikolai himself would help investigate the failure of Operation Fairway, he had a hunch inside him, a hunch that will keep him going until death stops him, nothing, will stand, in his way. To complete, Operation Fairway.
Nikolai and Rainbow Dash were in the town's outskirts, a few feet away from them lay Ponyville, and it's happy residents. "Ready?" Dash asked, looking up to Nikolai. "Let's go then." they both began walking towards the town, at first passing a few buildings. Until they came to a stop near a familiar blue mare. "Oh hey Dash, how you-Whoa!" the blue mare stopped as she saw the stalker. "Who's that, what is that?" she asked. "Oh this is Nikolai my new best friend!" Dash said proudly. "Oh, well. Umm...nice to meet you, I'm Colgate." she said with a smile. Nikolai smiled under his mask. "Well, I gotta go, see you later Dash!" with that Colgate trotted out of sight.
For some reason, ponies were taking Nikolai as firghtening and threatening, like he was going to jump and strangle the life out of them. He did that once, but Celestia helped.
"So, where should we go?" Dash said with a smile. "Hmm..." Nikolai wondered for a second, tapping his finger on his chin. "Any entertainment?" he asked. Dash leapt on his back, and nuzzled her cheek against his. "Hey, what was that?" he chuckled. "I don't know, it felt right!" Dash blushed and stayed on him. "I know a place!" she said enthusiasticly, and pointed a hoof towards the inner part of town. And they went.
__
It was getting down, Celestia's sun setting down, making way for Luna's moon. The stars above began to shine. "Ain't that beautiful?" Dash had her head rested on Nikolai's shoulder. They came to a stop in front of a night club, a buff stallion guarding the door. Nikolai frowned. "A night club, seriously?" he was shushed by Rainbow Dash. "Don't chat, just enter." he did as he was told. Nikolai approached the buffy brown stallion. "Whoa, nice height there, got a pass?" he brown stallion looked at Rainbow Dash, she was nuzzling Nikolai's neck. "I guess you have a pass then, enjoy your stay you two lovebirds." the stallion snickered. Nikolai entered the club, different mares of all sizes and colors. Dancing around or simply enjoying ther time. There were a few stallions hanging around, not as much as mares though.
Nikolai and Rainbow Dash found some empty couches and sat down, next to eachother. "Take off that stupid mask, and that hoodie." Dash began, with a sigh he took them off. "There we go, now." Dash leapt into his lap, pinning him against the couch. She came in closer. "Oh no Dashie, not now." he started to resist. "I know you want it, now stop fiddling and accept." she smirked. "No Dash, Rainbow Dash stop it." he was getting annoyed by the pegasus' actions. She launched her head forward, connecting their lips in an unwilling kiss. At first, a muzzle against a mouth felt uncomfirtable and weird, but as time passed and they were still locked in the kiss. It was starting to adjust itself, soon they both feeled their tongues. Sliding it in the other's mouth. Dash moaned in pleasure. Nikolai kept quiet, not to ruin the moment. Their tongues danced around eachother as they pressed harder. It was minutes before Dash broke the kiis, leaving a trail of mixed salivia between their mouths. The volume balanced music filling the atmosphere that matched the air. It was a great experience. "T-that...felt..." Dash was at loss. She was panting. "Unbeliaveble?" Nikolai finished for her. "More than anything in the world." Rainbow smiled. Nikolai pulled the pegasus for a hug, they locked their bodies tight to eachother. 'What do I say now, say that I love her, what if her reaction is different as I expected, what if she disgusts from me and calls me a beast, what if she begins to hate me?' Nikolai thought to himself, hundreds of thoughts floated around Dash's mind aswell. 'Oh boy, what do I say, I can't continue like this, I have to tell him!' They both raised their heads at the same time.
"I love you."
They said unison, spilling out the words at the same time together, they both blushed a deep shade of crimson. They pulled in again, taking in the warm embrace.
They held for minutes, not realizing that time was passing quick. They were disturbed by the guard pony. "I'm sorry but you need to leave, it's morning already." he said bluntly. Nikolai and Dash broke their hug and eyed the brown stallion. "Morning?" Dash asked, confused, they had been there for hours. Nikolai looked around the club, to his surprise, not even a single pony was hanging around. "Looks like we fell alseep." Dash chuckled nervously. "Well, we better go, your friends are probably worried sick!" Nikolai exclaimed. "They're OUR friends Nicky." "Okay Dashie." Nikolai smirked.
Soon Rainbow Dash and Nikolai were outside the cool morning air. "Hey about last night, you were muttering words about something called 'Operation Fairhey'?" Dash started. "No, Operation Fairway, and yes, I probably was muttering in my sleep, want to know?" Nikolai raised an eyebrow. "Buck yeah!" Dash yelled happily. "Okay."
"It started out as a project, then turned into an actually operation, they've sent six military helicopters to investigate specific parts of the Zone. Sadly, they had their emmision protection on, so something shot them down, or someone. After months of waiting a former experienced stalker stepped into the Zone, his name was Major Degtyrev, said that he will uncover the Zone's secret. But no one has heard from his since. And no one else continued the investigation, too scared out of their minds." he finished with a sigh.
Dash had multiple questions to ask.
"What's a helicopter?" (roflcopter) Nikolai decided to go simple on his pegasus. "A big machine that flies and carries things." he awaited more questions, which came quick. "What's a emmision?" Dash asked. "More like a giant explosion, but it doesn't explode, it kills everything that's not sheltered in seconds if not minutes." Dash flinched back at that. "D-do you think something will happen like that in Equestria?!" Dash worried. Nikolai chuckled and lightly kissed her cheek. "Don't worry about it my Dashie, nothing like that will happen."
Nikolai and Rainbow Dash were enthusiastic about going around town. But something bothered Nikolai, Dash has noticed this by his unusual twiching he had from time to time. But the thought of something wrong with him quickly escaped Dash's mind, and continued on.
"So, where are we going, we'ge got the whole day to ourselves!" Dash squealed in delight and bounced once. She looked took a quick glimpce at Nikolai's body, his jacket was tattered, his trousers were almost ripped, and he was still wearing the blood covered mask and that stupid hoodie that covered his head. "Why are you wearing that mask for, and that hoodie makes you look like the Ponyreaper." (Grimreaper, I don't even...these pony puns are terrible) Nikolai shrugged her off, but she insisted it, Dash quietly flew behind him, she pulled of his hoodie and snatched his mask. "Hey, give it back!" Nikolai frowned. "Not if you give me a kiss!" Dash exclaimed. Nikolai frowned deeper. "Dash, I'm not playing, give it back." he stared blankly at her. "I'm not playing either, I'm just being awesome!" Dash posed in a awkward way, Nikolai began to giggle. "Hey, what's so funny?" she eyed him with one eye. "You are Dash!" he continued to giggle until she stopped and gave the mask back. "You hungry, 'cuz I am." Dash's stomach growled. "Yeah I guess we can eat something." Nikolai smirked. "I know just the place, come on follow me, FOLLOW ME!" she laughed.
In about two minutes they were in front of a gingerbread house, Nikolai stared at it in amazement. "Are we going to eat he house?" he chuckled. "No you silly filly!" a voice came from behind him. Nikolai turned around and touched a poofy pink mare's muzzle. "Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie and welcome to..." she backed away and posed awkwarslg on her hind legs. "Sugarcube Corner!" Pinkie exclaimed happily and bounced towards the shop's door. She opened it and gesture for Dash and Nikolai to come in. They did so.
Inside of the shop they were greeted by a sweet smell of freshly baked cupcakes, the oven behind the counter ticked. "Cupcakes are ready!" Pinkie bounced off behind the counter. Rainbow Dash nudged Nikolai. "What?" he whispered, Dash gestured with her hoof to come closer. He neared his face to hers. Before Dash could make her move on Nikolai, a certain pink pony lauged so loudly it caused ears to ring.
The three of them sat around the table, Nikolai and Dash next to eachother as always, Pinkie eyed them. "So you two in love?" she giggled. Dash nuzzled Nikolai. "Yes we are." they both said in unison. Pinkie only could giggle and laugh. She handed a cupcake to each of them. Pinkie was the one to 'chow down' first, followed by Rainbow Dash and the Nikolai. Time seemed to stop as Nikolai opened his mouth, some of his teeth were highly sharpened, it looked like they could cut through metal like butter. Dash dropped her cupcake at the sight. She never noticed that before, then a sudden realization of horror came through her mind. She gulped and tasted something she had never eaten before, it tasted like meat, she knew it because Dash accidently bit Twilight on the ear, just a tiny weeny accident. Nikolai turned his head. "What's wrong?" he raised and eyebrow and sunk his teeth into the cupcake, Dash imagined if the cupcake was a piece of pony flesh. She put a hoof on her mouth and her cheeks filled with her own breakfast. With fear and shock she accidently gulped it down, she began coughing. "Y-your teeth, they sre s-sharp..." her words trailed off. Nikolai gritted his snow white teeth in front of Rainbow Dash, he opened his mouth fully, showcasing his sharpened dog teeth. (Is that what they were called, dog teeth seriously?) "You eat meat..." Dash said, still looking at his teeth, he closed his mouth. "Yeah I do, ponies are my specialty on friday, oh and what's the day today, oh yeah, friday. So I guess I have to cook you up tonight!" he grinned evily. Dash screamed and fell of her chair, banging her head against the wooden floor. Pinkie Pie made a 'me gusta' face, seriously how does she do it? "Oh my god, Dashie, I'm so sorry I didn't mean to frighten you." Nikolai lifted her head up, and looked into her closed eyelids. "Please, I'm sorry for that, please. Come on!" he shook her body. But Dash didn't respond. Pinkie Pie has gone from 'me gusta' face into a 'poker face'. Dash opened a single eyeband smiled. "Oh Dashie, you're alright!" he planted his lips into hers for a small kiss. Pinkie Pie however, was now a perfect, identical replica of the grand famous 'trollface', but pink coloured.
Nikolai and Rainbow Dash stood up, both looking at Pinkie Pie, she was with her usual, ear to ear grin. "Here you go guys, for the road." Pinkie handed Rainbow Dash a bag of two muffins and three cupcakes. Dash reached her, skin pocket (Seriously, where do ponies keep their bits?) and handed out a few bits to Pinkie Pie which refused them. "No, no no no no Dash, it's on the house!"
Nikolai and Rainbow Dash thanked Pinkie Pie about her well served fill. They trotted outside, and to their luck it began to rain. "Oh, Skittles! It's raining!" she prepared for her mane to be soaked wet, but Nikolai slid off his own jacket and placed it on Dash, with the hoodie over her head. It was warm on comfortably, she liked it. "Thanks, but what about you?" Dash looked at Nikolai's exposed upper body. "I can survive a bit of rain you know, I've been in much worse than this." feeling proud of himself he patted Dash on the back. "I think one of my friends Rarity, could help you out with some awesome styled clothes!" Dash exclaimed. Nikolai began wobbaling slightly. "Ugh...I don't, feel so good..." he had a rusty metallic taste in his mouth. He pressed his back against Sugarcube Corner's wall. "Nikolai, what they hay is wrong?" Dash asked, worried about his health. "I d-don't know, I feel funny, Dash, you're smoking pot, gimme some." Nikolai began blubering tons of words that didn't make any sense to her. "Nikolai, Nicky, Nicky!" Dash shouted as he began to lose conciousness. He felt a pair of hooves on his head as he blackened out.
Nikolai could feel the cold rain drops on his body, and the worried screams of a cyan mare. Rainbow Dash was desperatly trying to wake Nikolai up. She tried shaking, screaming, taps and shoves, but the Russian stalker won't react to her pleas.
"I won't leave you..." Dash's words were barely a whisper, she set herself next to Nikolai, crying away.
__
The rain finally stopped, and Nikolai groaned, he rubbed his forehead, he opened his eyes to see a sleeping pegasus next to him. Just as he was about to reach her, pain stopped his motions. His head was banging so hard it made him dizzy, his ears were ringing as if a granade exploded next to him.
"Gaw...fuck!"
He rubbed the back of his head in pain.
"Agh...what happened?"
His stomach was growling in hunger.
"Great, now I'm hungry."
His bladder was beggining to grow.
"Now I need a fucking piss." he frowned. "Things can't get any worse." he looked over the sleeping pegasus, he carefully stroked her mane. "Wake up Dashie." at first she growled, then the growling became into moaning. "J-just....five more...minutes...mom..." she was still asleep, Nikolai smirked at the cute sight and stroked Dash's ear. "Agh...Ugh...feels nice." she mumbled. "Come on Dashie, wake up little pony." he began brushing her back, Dash's wings wiggled at the touch. "N-Nikolai? N...Nicky!" she shot her eyes open and quickly pulled Nikolai into a tight embrace. "Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh, you're alright, I thought you'd never wake up, oh I'm SO glad that you're okay!"
'Yep, that's one way to put it, now about my needs.'
"Look Dash, I'm happy to see you too, but, I need the crapper!" Nikolai exclaimed. "The...crap-er?" Dash released Nikolai from her embrace and tilted her head in confusion. "You know, body releases?" Dash blushed like mad at a thought, Nikolai saw her confusion. "Oh god, I need, the toilet!"
"Ooooooooh, you mean THE toilet, bathroom right? Right?"
"Yes, now where can I find one!?"
"Umm...Twilight's?"
Nikolai stared at Dash as if he was just slapped across the face. "Are you serious, Twilight?" Nikolai raised an eyebrow. "Well yeah, I would let you use mine, but my house is made out of clouds, and since when do humans started walking on them?" Dash giggled. Nikolai had poker face'd.
He sighed, "Okay, let's go to Twilight, good thing ponies use toilets."
As they were walking, Dash continuesly kept nuzzling Nikolai. At first he didn't mind it, but then it got irritating and annoying, but he kept his cool.
Nikolai's bladder levels increased as they neared the library, thank god it wasn't that far away. Or else he'd has to do it in a bush or something. They approached the door, Nikolai impaitiantly knocked.
"Come in!"
Nikolai twisted the handle and pushed, inside was Twilight on the couch, a pair of reading glasses rested on her muzzle, also Rarity seemed to be sorting out books on a shelf.
"Well hello darlings, I hope you had a wonderful day!"
"Yeah yeah, Twilight I REALLY need to use the restroom, directions?"
Twilight pointed her hoof to a door past the kitchen, he thanked and bolted out, shutting the bathroom door behind him. Now he didn't expect this.
The toilet was weird shaped, definetly not for humans, only for ponies, oh boy was this his luck. He cursed under his breath and tried to figure out how to use it. It was impossible even to sit on the bloody thing!
He soon needed a plan before his underwear filled with brown chocolate.
"Hey Nicky, what's takin' so long?" Dash's voice came beyond the door. "I can't use a bloody pony toilet, I need a normal one for butts not plots!" he yelled, "Plots?" Dash asked, "That means pony ass!" Dash, Twilight and Rarity blushed together at the information, they felt awkward and embarrased. "T-That wasn't very polite!" that was Twilight, "Well sorry Miss Sparkle, I can't think straight whilst holding my own SHIT!"
Twilight recoiled, "S-sorry." she apologized, "Damn right you should, now how do I use this bloody thing!?" he said, still looking at the weird shaped toilet. "Umm...Oh, the lid is detachable so it can change into different shapes, try that cupboard under the bathtub, there should be something that fits your..."
"Ass."
"Right, right."
Nikolai checked he cupboard under the bathtub and found a lid that fits the human bum. He took it out and replaced it with the current one, now it looked like a normal toilet back on Earth. He dropped his trousers and sat down.
(You don't need this part.)
He flushed the toilet, he reached to his right, but it wasn't there, it wasn't where it should be, this has never happened before, sadness mixed with anger built up inside of him, until he shouted at the top of his lungs.
A/N : Okay this human x pony thing is creeping me out, this will be the last chapter with human and pony romance in it. Sorry but it seems wrong, and by wrong it outright disturbing!
Nikolai was sitting in the uncomfortable toilet seat, shouting over the ponies beyond the door.
"Toilet paper!"
"What's that?"
"How do you wipe your ass after taking a shit?!"
"Umm...what?"
Nikolai was completely mind blown, these ponies don't even know what toilet paper meant, or wiping your arse after using the craphole.
"Do you have paper, parchments and stuff?" Nikolai asked, "Yeah I do, plenty of them," Twilight answered, "Toilet paper means paper, but ALOT softer than the usual material, soft enough for intimate areas."
Twilight's book brain finally clicked, she knew what to do now, "Hold up, I'll cast a spell that makes any material softer." she levitated a medium sized parchment and activated the spell.
After a brief second, the hard paper material turned into a soft, plushy white strip of normal paper. Twilight knocked on the bathroom door, "I think I got it!" she tried to push the door but it was locked, "Hey, open it." she insisted. Nikolai unbolted the bathroom door and stuck out his hand, "Gimme it!" Twilight gently placed it in Nikolai's palm, he brought it in and bolted the door again. "Why are you locking the door from us?" Twilight asked, "Privacy, geez don't you ponies have common sense?" he snapped, Twilight was rudely insulted by that.
"Now listen here mister, that was very rude and you should apolo-"
"Mister? How old are you?"
"Sixteen, why?"
"Buzz of kiddo, I'm twenty six, so you can't command me!"
"I'm not a child, I'm a fully grown mare!"
Nikolai huffed, he was somewhat enjoying an angry Twilight, he thought it was funny and enjoyable.
He began wiping his...(you don't need this)
__
He came out of the bathroom, feeling like a new man, he sighed, it felt great. An angry-smoke-puffing-out-of-her-nose Twilight was standing in front of him, her face was red with anger and embarrasment.
"Why the shit eating face?" he asked, mocking the unicorn, as those words passed Twilight became redder, like a boiling tomato that was about to explode. (Tomatoes don't boil)
Twilight stomped her hoof in frustraition, "Whoa Twi', just calm down alright kid?" that was his mistake. Twilight came down on him, forcing the stalker onto the floorboards.
"Never, ever, call me a kid again!" she was practicly pinning him against the floor, Nikolai coughed, then began to giggle. "What's so funny?" He didn't answer, only continuing to giggle, his giggles burst into snorts and laughs. "What's so FUNNY?!" she yelled in his face, "Whew Twi', you've still got a morning breath, or is it always like that?" he continued to mock. Twilight shifted her body an inch. "WHOA! You should really lose some weight, maybe some morning exercises?" he laughed.
She slightly bucked his leg, "Hah, you should work on your strenght, I bet even Fluttershy can beat you hah!" he didn't stop, he couldn't stop, it was too hillarious for him, he wanted to continue on mocking the now blushing unicorn.
"Why the red cheeks? You don't look cute, you look like the Japaneese version of Ronald McDonald!" he squeezed his eyes tight, letting out a few laughing tears.
Twilight loosened her grip, she turned away her head, sobbing quietly. Nikolai noticed that she was sad, being totally offended by his stupidness and ignorence. He couldn't feel anything but guilty, it seems that ponies HAVE feelings after all. Seriously Nikolai, what were you thinking? You bellend.
Nikolai frowned, realizing what he just done, he leaned over to Twilight, taking her hoof in his hand.
"I...I'm s-sorry Twi', I didn't m-mean to offend you, honestly. Please, don't be mad, I take back everything I said to you."
He tried to smile, but as the unicorn continued to sob, his attemps failed and ended up in a sad frown.
"Twilight please, I can't see you like this, this isn't you, where is the happy bookworm? I apologize a million times about my actions, and...and...you do look cute."
Nikolai succeeded in a warm smirk, feeling that the speech conviced Twilight that he was sorry, but she needed something more than comfort.
Twilight leaned over and placed her head into Nikolai's shoulders. "Don't even try it Twi'." that was Rainbow Dash. (obviously) Twilight let out a few more sobs before completely stopping, she lifted her head and stared into Nikolai's sky-blue eyes.
"N...N-Nicky I...I-I..."
Her mind was full of crap.
__
For the first time she has met Nikolai, she began developing feelings for him, feelings that couldn't be explained by text or sleech, these feelings HAD to be experienced. But as soon Twilight saw her best friend Dash and her crush Nikolai kiss eachother, her heart was stabbed (not really lol). Immense flow of pain and sadness flowed through her body as the couple were happy together. She has to something.
__
"Nicky I..."
"Oh heeeeell no!" Dash yelled and pushed Twilight out of Nikolai's grasp. "What did you do that for?!" he was shockes by Dash's actions, "She wanted you for herself! No kidding I've been watching this spazzmic little gremlin since you first kissed me! She had her own intentions, I'm the one you should love, not her!"
"G-Girls, I'm going back to my Boutique, so don't mind me." Rarity laughed awkwardly, no one was listening to her, "Riiight." she darted ouf of the library.
Nikolai turned to look at the weeping Twilight, then to the jealous cyan pegasus.
"Rainbow."
Dash turned around, facing Nikolai straight face-to-face, she blinked, waiting.
"Some element of loyalty you are."
Dash was mentally punched in the jaw, making it hang open.
"Go away Dash, we're not going to talk for some time."
Rainbow shifted her look to Twilight. "Get out Dash." Twilight mumbled quietly.
Dash's eyes watered, a single tear dropped on the woodwork as she left the library. Nikolai sighed as he sat next to Twilight.
"She deserved it Nicky," Twilight commented, leaning against Nikolai for comfort, he wrapped his arm around her back, ever so slightly rubbing her neck. "I know, she's greedy and self-centered, I should've seen it coming." Nikolai commented.
"Twilight, can I ask you a question?"
"Sure,"
"Since when did you..."
"Since I met you."
"Me too."
They hugged eachother, Luna's moon illuminating them in a white, outlined glow.
Nikolai and Twilight were still holding eachother under the moonlight's rays, it felt like hours.
"Nicky, I..." Twilight began, but unable to find the right words.
"Just say whatever you have to say." Nikolai reassured. Twilight lifted her head up and stared into Nikolai's eyes. She sighed and decided to become clear.
"Nikolai, I have feelings for you, since you kissed Dash for the first time, I overran with jelousy. But now I have you, I want you to be with me, to love me, I already do." she finished with a sob.
But he wasn't experiencing the same, he wasn't attracted to the other species, much more to "love" them. On earth, horses are horses, er, ponies.
His human instics came into action and decided that interacting with these ponies is wrong, less than touch them. He knew it was wrong, he needed to get away, and return to the Zone, he didn't belong in Equestria.
Nikolai loosened his grip on Twilight, she noticed this and squeezed tighter. "Please, don't go. I don't want to be alone." she whispered. Nikolai began to push away. "Look Twi', as much as I'd like to stay, but this is wrong!"
Twilight's eyes shot open, realizing what the stalker said.
"How is love wrong?"
'Gah, creepy little gremlin, love? She must be joking.'
"There's nothing between us, you're a pony, I'm a human, big difference, like a gun without bullets."
'That must've wroked.' he thought.
"But, what if you add the bullets to the gun?"
'Meh, maybe not.'
"Look pony, just let me be on my marry way, and forget this ever happened, okay?" he finally was free from her embrace, he stood up and dusted himself off.
"Nikolai...I love you, and I don't deny it, please, stay." Twilight's eyes began to water. She stood up and trotted towards Nikolai, but he took a step back.
"Don't come any closer." he said bluntly, taking another step back. 'This is getting ridicolious. I could just kick her out ot the way, and go back to the Zone, but how?'
Twilight stepped forward, "Don't go, please, stay with me."
'nope.avi'
"Twilight please, get out of the way before I do something we'll both regret!"
"No, I won't let you."
"Step aside, please."
"I won't move."
"Twilight, I'm losing my temper!"
"So am I."
'Motherfucker!'
"Motherfucker!"
'Crap, did I just shout out that?'
Twiligt tilted her head in confusion, but she still stood her ground. An idea sparked in Nikolai's head. His trousers. He reached for the pocket, and it was there, hia father's nine milimeter caliber pistol, it was getting a bit rusty, but it was in a working condition. He pointed it to Twilight's head.
'Shit, I hope it doesn't go off by itself.'
Twilight's eyes widened in the size of saucers, her mouth hung open, her ears twiched. She was shivering by now.
"N-Nicky...?" she stammered.
He put his hand on the top of the pistol, he pulled back, producing an audible 'click' noise. He steadied it between Twilight's eyes.
"Move before I shoot."
'I would never, not even in a million years.'
"N-no!" Twilight shouted, Nikolai was surprised by her sudden reaction, "What did you say, do you want to get your head blown off?" he threatened. Twilight relaxed, "If it means being with you, then yes."
'W..wha? Wow, she really DOES love me, okay okay, awkward situation, I have the upper hand and a firearm, she's just an unicorn with lame magic, now what, god, these dramatic moments.'
There were a few knocks on the door, followed by a stallion's voice.
"Miss Twilight Sparkle, are you in there!?"
More knocks.
"Miss Twilight, are you there, is everything alright, we had a few reports of noise commotion!"
Neither Twilight or Nikolai responded ti the stallion's voice.
"We're coming in!"
'We wha-' his thoughts were cut short, the door broke down from it's hinges and slapped itself against the wooden floor, out came out a white pegasus with golden plated armor, followed by another one, and then another, there were three of Celestia's personal guards in the library scanning the area. Until they noticed the scene. They took their battle stances and yelled.
"Another one!"
'Onether one wha-' the three pegasus stallions came down on him, first beating the pistol out of his hand and restraining his limbs. His head was planted against the floor.
"Ouch hey, watch it asshole!" he mumbled under the pressure.
"You have the right to remain silent, anything you say could be used against you or as evidence for your prutrit actions." one of the guard said without even looking at Nikolai. "What? Am I being arrested?" he wondered. "Yes, you are under arrest for domestic violence."
'Domestic violence what- oh fuck!'
"I'm not in a relationship with her!"
The guards looked at eachother.
"You have barged in her house."
"She welcomed me here!"
They looked at eachother again, thinking of a new excuse.
"You were threatining her with the firearm."
'How did he know what it was!?'
"What?! How did you know?!"
"You weren't the first one, now say goodnight."
"You so of a bi-" he was violently knocked out, his eyes dropped down, his body became limp.
They dragged him outside of the library, the guard turned around and apologized to Twilight Sparkle about the actions they had to take, they threw him in the carriege and flew off towards Canterlot, where Princess Celestia and Princess Luna resided. The two pegasi who were carying the carriege began a small conversation.
"How many today?" one on the left asked, the other one answered, "About eleven, I swear these things come out of nowhere, with their weapons and suits, that one was about to have his way with a unlucky mare named 'Rose', one woke up in the hostpital, only to attack Nurse Tenderheart, good thing I was there, and the one that we're carrying right now, was about to murder one of Celestia's most prized student!" he finished with a sigh, "Eeeh, what a week ah?" they both shared a quick and quiet laugh.
Nikolai was secretly eavesdropping on them, he was shocked by what they had said.
'More of us? Damn, looks like the Zone is sick of us and decided to let us wonder into another dimension, ugh that dude that was about to have sex with...umm...was it Rose? Yeah Rose, damn, little beastiality fella.' he smirked. Then he remembared something. 'Shit, where's my AK?! FUCK I FORGOT THE BACKPACK AT FLUTTERSHY'S!' he yelled in his mind. He felt a tap on his head, he turned it around to see a smiling guard.
"You're about to have a really nice cellmate, mate." he laughed evily.
__
Soon the carriege arrived at Canterlot, but it headed towards a different way, instead of the pony filled city, they went deep underground, numerous cells with various creatures filled them. Nikolai was thrown in one of them.
"Have a nice, two-years-in-prison time." all the guards walked off Nikolai's sight.
The cell room had a bunk bed, a toilet in seperated part and a sink near the door. Nikoali turned around to see a familar face.
The men stood in the cellroom, looking at eachother.
"M-Major Degtyrev? The one that had to investigate Operation Fairway?" Nikolai began. "Yes, Alexander Degtyrev, that was my mission until these furballs swooped me in this 'Equeatria' of theirs with talking mules and-" "They are not mules, they are ponies who love and care for eachother, they have feeli-" "DID YOU LOSE YOUR HUMANITY?!"
Nikolai stared blankly at Alex, he crossed his arms and frowned. "What do you mean by that?" Nikolai asked, "Do you really care about these ponies, back on earth they are farm animals."
Nikolai didn't respond, "Look, all I know that they want something from us, and that 'something' must be very important to us and them," he paused. "Do you want to spend the next two years in pony prison?" Alex asked. Nikolai shook his head. "Good, I have an escape plan, these ponies are so dumb they didn't even reinforce the doors, just give 'em a good kick and they'll fall down."
Alex reached behind the bunk bed and took out an L96A1 sniper rifle. He handed it over to Nikolai. "Do you know how to quick scope?" Alex asked, Nikolai nodded and cocked the rifle. Alex reached under the bunk bed and took out an M16, three round burst weapon. "Conserve your ammo, kill shots only, don't fall behind and keep up the pace."
"Ready?"
"Oorah!"
"Game faces!"
Nikolai kicked the door, it broke off it's hinges and fell upon a unlucky guard. Alex exited the cell room and took down an advancing guard, three empty, smoking catridges flew off and landed on the muddy floor.
"Come on, come on! There's an exit a few clicks from here!" Alex informed, they began to jog through the hallway, gripping their weapons as tightly as possible.
"One o'clock!"
Nikolai focused, he lifted the sniper rifle, once he had te guard pony in his sight he took the shot, he pulled back the bolt, the guard pony fell on the floor, with a massive hole between his eyes.
"Quick scope'd, headshot, nice work, either your good or your just that good." Alex laughed at his own joke. They continued along the hallway. They've already have passed thousands of cell rooms.
"Where's the exit?" asked Nikolai.
"Not far I think...wait...what was tha-" he was cut short by a flashing lighg in front of them.
Mere inches away stood Princess Celestia, with an angry expression. She boomed.
"I have given you a second chance human, but you simply must destroy my kind do you!?"
No one answered.
"I have thought that you were a peacful kind, but I have thought wrong, your kind resinds in war and violence, all these years I thought that ONE of you would arrive in Equestria and solve this conflict once and for all, but no!"
She inhaled deeply, then continued.
"You have fallen in love with a mare, a pony, love always finds it's way around. But you denied it, you denied your relationship with Rainbow Dash, the Element of Loyalty, you broke her heart and drove her in depression, she now seeks emotional support."
Celestia took a step forward.
"You had inentions on killing her and her friends, you should he ashamed, I gave you a second chance in life, but you have wasted it, completely gone. You could've had a family."
Celestia stopped, eyeing the humans that stood in awe.
"Dude...what is this shit, you love a horse, you killed half a town, and the princess herself gave youba second chance?" Alex began. Nikolai nodded, he lowered his head in shame.
"I can help you Nikolai, just say the word and you'll be back to your loved one, Rainbow Dash." stated the princess.
It was all quiet, even the rats stopped moving. The tension was so thick it could be blown off with a nuke! Alex stood in front of Nikolai.
"Earth or Equestria, the Zone or Rainbow Dash, weapons or friendship, war or happiness?"
All eyes were on him, waiting for a reply from the young stalker.
'Ponies, gah, simple farm animals who do nothing but run, eat, shit and drink. And it so happens for me that I fall in a world that's full of the little fuckers, but they did take care of me while I was injured, Dash never left me while I was uncouncious. Twilight didn't want to leave me either, god damn it, I should't have pointed the gun at her, they were all nice to me, and I haven't repayed their kindess, I was so selfish, and now? The princess of the entire of Equestria is asking me a simple, heavy question that will last forever, even change my life. Stay in Equestria or go back to the Zone? It' the biggest decision I had to make in my life, but what should I choose? What would happen if I stay in Equestria, if I go back to earth, I have a family there, my girlfriend and parents, all my friends, what will happen to them if I stay in Equestria? This ia so frustraiting, I can't think straight, and why am I talking to myself!? I don't want to leave Dashie, or Twilight, or any of my new pony friends. God, I miss my homeland. Think for Christ's sake, THINK!'
Nikolai's mind was racing through with a million thoughts, there he was, standing in front of the ruler of Equestria with a dangerous weapon in his hands. Alex and Celestia were running out of patience.
"Nikolai please, this is a grave decision, so please choose carefuly, and fast, we don't have much time." Celestia spoke.
"We have a mission comrade, the Zone needs us to complete it, if we do not stop the evil that lurks it's grounds, Russia will be overrun with Monolight fighters and mutants. Every human being that existed will kick your ass after you die. Think about it my comrade." Alex spoke.
Nikolai was still lost in thoughts. Something was telling him to shoot Celestia's ass and run as fast as possible. But something else was telling him to stay in Equestria, forever in harmony and friendship.
"I...I do not know." Nikolai stammered.
"Nikolai please, make your choice!" Celestia obviously.
"Take the right path, my friend." Alex spoke proudly, he was certain that Nikolai will choose to help the Zone.
'Does my life depend on my choice?' he thought.
"Yes! Yes it does! Now make it!" Celestia yelled, it was surprising for royalty to shout out in frustration.
"How did you kno-"
"Alicorns can do that." Celestia cut him short.
"I...can't decide." he whispered.
"What brings you happiness?" Celestia asked.
"Uh...many things." he said bluntly.
"Name one."
"Dashie."
He covered his mouth with a hand, realizing what he just said.
'Crap, does she? Damn damn, DAMN!'
"What do you preffer, war or peace?" the princess asked again.
'What does war bring? Nothing but tragedy, death and suffering, but peace... Peace is different, it brings happiness and...ugh! Why am I talking ot myself?!'
"Peace." he said bluntly. Celestia smirked, she was getting somewhere.
"The Zone, or Ponyville?" she asked again.
"Pon-...no, I don't even..." he trailed off, Celestia smirked widely.
"Ponyville it is." she was now smiling. For no reason whatsoever.
"Nikolai, do you preffer humans, or ponies?" Alex barged in, eyeing the young stalker.
"Don't know...humans?"
Celestia frowned, her horn began to glow, the light was so strong Nikolai had to cover his eyes. He felt the sniper rifle being taken away from his hands, he felt a cool breeze across his whole body.
Until nothing.
He lowered his hand and opened his eyes, but nothing, Celestia and Alex were gone, only a dark void was left, he felt solid ground beneath him, but there was nothing, blank. He looked around but with the same result, more darkness.
Nikolai didn't feel anything, hunger, thrist, need for the toilet, all his needs were gone. Time seemed to slow down, until it came to a complete stop. It seemed that he wasn't breathing either, he tried to inhale but no air came into his lungs. He felt weightless. Worth the weight.
He heard some hoofsteps coming towards him, he turned his head and saw Rainbow Dash approach him, his eyes widened in surprise, his mouth opened but no words came out. Dash was still approaching him. He tried to move, but something was restraining him. Dash finally spoke.
"Nikolai, remember when I said that I'll never leave you? I kept that promise, I was always by your side, always ready to help you, but you rejected me, you didn't care about my feelings towards you, when you told me to leave the library, do you know where I went? No, because you didn't care."
There was a slight pause before she continued.
"I took my own life, I couldn't stand it, I thought we loved eachother, I know you simply think that I'm a stupid farm animal, but no, I have feelings just like you, I experience happiness, sadness, tragedy and love. Just like you. Just like any other creature in the universe. My heart was shattered to tiny pieces when you said those words. "Dash, get out.". I didn't believe what you were saying, but you intended it. So I left. For the first time I have left you, I left Ponyville, I left Equestria, I left my own CELESTIA DAMNED BODY!"
She sighed.
"You twisted my life, just like you twisted yours, you have made a grave mistake that will leave a forever lasting scar, not physicly visible, but mentally remembable, time is running out, only you can save Equestria and yourself, make haste, and choose your path carefuly, I wish you all the luck, my friend."
With that she disappeared from sight, again nothing but darkness, Dash made her point. And he has made his decision, for the final.
Again a cool breeze swept throuh his body as he was brought back to reality, Celestia eagerly waiting for a reply of hope, Alex proudly holding his weapon, head high reassured that his plan will go smooth.
"Celestia, I know where's my place." Nikolai smirked and looked towards Alex. "I'm sorry my friend, looks like the Zone needs another hero, I guess you can sort that out right?"
"You betrayed human kind, traitor, bastard, you fucking coward, humanity will suffer for your actions, you won't live forever, age will claim your life, and when you go to hell, Satan will personally kick your ass!" Alex shouted. Celestia laughed.
"I don't think that age will worry him, you see, magic is your friend." she smiled widly. Alex twiched.
"Oh you, self centered ass bitch!" he raised his M16 and pressed the trigger, three bullets came out of the rifle, only to be stopped by an energy field. "Fuck!" he shouted and continued to fire, until the magazine was completely empty, producing an discreet 'click' sound. Celestia was still standing, smiling widly and happily. "Oh fuck this crap!" Alex shouted as he took out a simple knife, he charged Celestia, only to have his wind knocked out of hus lungs, Nikolai had punched him in the stomach, he took a step back and lifted his foot, delivering a straight kick in Alex's face. He fell on the ground, dropping the knife, barely breathing. Celestia walked over Nikolai's side, placing a comforting hoof on his shoulder.
"You are a brave one, you have made the right decesion, I am proud of you Nikolai Odksi, now time to return to your pony friends, and don't worry about Rainbow Dash, you would soon meet her." she stated proudly.
"Nikolai," Celestia spoke as they broke their embrace.
"Yes, Princess Celestia," Nikolai smiled.
"Please, call me 'Tia, my sister calls me that, I would like you too." she smiled back.
"'Tia it is, so, what did you have in mind?" asked Nikolai, looking over Alex.
"You don't want to go back to the Zone, do you?" she asked.
"No, I would like to stay in Equestria, the Zone, can find itself another hero." he stated proudly.
"Good, I would have you live in the Royal Canterlot Palace with me and my sister Luna, sound good?"
"Yes, that sounds good, no, it sounds perfect. Thank yoh Cele- erm...Tia." he chuckled nervously, the princess giggled and put a hoof on his shoulder.
"Don't worry Nicky, everything will be fine from now on, no more anomalies to bring strange creatures, er, no offense, no more military stalkers looking for you. Your life will be perfect from now on, without any worry. We are lucky to have you Nicky." she sighed and brought down her hoof from Nikolai's shoulder.
"But what about Rainbow Dash, she took her own life a-" he was interrupted.
"Rainbow Dash will be fine, her soul and body are restored, she only hung herself the-"
"Please, don't continue, I don't want to hear Dash's death." he lowered his head, the princess quickly hugged him in surprise.
"I'm sorry Nicky, I knew I shouldn't have told you, please, I didn't intend any offense on Rainbow Dash or you." she released him.
"Well I was kind of offended." he said dumbly. Celestia stared at him with a blank expression, Nikolai giggled. "Hah, I'm only joking, you ponies are so easy to trick!"
"Har har, very funny Nicky, I mean it, I apologize." she turned away her head, Nikolai placed his hand under her chin, lifting her head up to his face.
"Tia, don't worry, there's nothing to be embarrased about. I'm your friend." he smiled warmly.
"Nicky, there's something I need to give you." she said.
"Oh? And what could that be?" he asked curiously.
"Just close your eyes, and don't open them until I said so, okay?"
Nikolai nodded in response.
Celestia took a few steps back, her hirn began to glow and evoured Nikolai in a bright colorful aura. Then it all stopped. Celestia sighed in relief.
"Now, think about electricity." she said simply, Nikolai did as he was told, he thought about a big, massive nuclear station. In front of his eyes, the prison hallway was illuminated with a bright green light, he was the source of it. He held up his hands, there was pure nuclear energy running through them. Celestia giggled.
"Well that's nice, now you no longer need those weak, metallic firearms that require bullets, your energy is unlimited."
"So am I nuclear bomv now?" he asked, still looking throughout his hands.
"No, you are like the sun, but ten times in power. You're like a battery that never ends, it's a gift from me, to you. Now you can turn yourself off, my eyes hurt from all this green light."
Nikolai quickly ceased the bright glow, he looked up to Celestia.
"H-how could I ever thank you, how could I thank you, this is simply...amazing!" his eyes were still wide.
"There's one way." she smirked seducevly, she pointed to her cheek with a hoof. Nikolai knew what that meant.
"Serious now?" he raised an eyebrow. Celestia nodded, still showcasing her cheek. Nikolai sighed and stepped forward, gently planting his lips against Celestia's cheek. She immidietly blushed.
"Hey, you asked for it!" he joked.
"Guess I did." she saud sheepleshly, hiding her face behind her sparkling mane.
"Oh come on now, you're the ruler of Equestria, and you're embarrased from me? Oh Tia."
"Oh, you." she playfully poked him.
A few seconds of awkward silence passed, none of them saying anything to eachother, until Celestia spoke.
"It's night time already, want to go back to the palace, we should have dinner and then go to bed, sound like a plan?" she asked, looking along the empty hallway.
"Sure, why were we standing here anyway, yes, let's have dinner and then go to sleep."
Celestia smiled, and once again, her horn glowed.
__
They were both teleported right in front of the royal palace. Two large wooden doors stood. Nikolai placed a hand on his head.
"Nicky, are you okay?!" Celestia asked, worrying.
"Yeah, just a slight headache, and dizziness. I don't think I could stay up for dinner, sorry Tia, but my head is litellary banging against my brain. I need some sleep." he sighed. Celestia frowned slightly, understanding his situation.
"Of course, let me show you the way to your bedchamber."
__
Nikolai and Celestia arrived at a quite large room, witha kingsize bed and a large balcony.
"Well, I guess this is goodnight, wish you the sweetest of dreams Nicky." with that she left the room. Nikolai sighed and stepped outside the large balcony. He thought of an electric fire. His hands lighted up ina blue flame, he did feel the heat, but not the pain.
"Cool." he said to himself. He pointed his hand at the night sky, a large bolt shot out, creating a large trail behind it. Like a shooting star.
'More power than the sun eh? Gotta' be atleast able to do something awesome, how about creating a plasma field? Or an electric rocket? That'll have to wait. Now I'm tired.'
With that he closed the balcony and proceeded towards the bed. Lumping down on it and quickly snoozing off.
**
"You have betrayed humanity, you have chosen ponies over humans, we are much more advanced and capable of technology, simple magic cannot stop a nuclear outrage, but it seems that you are a atomic bomb yourself. Will you really help these ponies in dire need? Let's see how that turns out, humanity WILL have it's revenge on you Nikolai Odksi, and those ponies you call, friends. A portal will open soon in Equestria, through it will seep the human army, ready to take their piece of cake. And the cake is large. Too large. Watch out how you eat it. You may choke."
"Oh, one more thing, watch out how you use that power of yours, four times the sun, when a sun explodes it sucks everything around it in. What if you go 'boom'? The universe may be at stake, watch it boy."
"Only a few weeks left until utter destruction is brought upon these helpless ponies. Bullets can destroy friendship."
"Weapons are your friends."
**
Nikolai broke out from his dream, it wasn't a dream, it was more of a prophecy, or the nearing future.
The sun brought up from the horizon, casting an orange-red glow over Nikolai's bedroom. He stood up, streching out his arms, resulting in a pop in the bones. He did that every morning. He thought about his nuclear powers.
Nikolai turned around, facing the big marble door.
"What if I..."
He lifted up his hand and pointed it to the door, he thought about lava, the marble door melted in front of his eyes, revealing Celestia.
'Wait, marble isn't flammable, nor it can lit on fire.' he thought, but quickly pushed the thought away.
"Heh...sorry for that 'Tia." he rubbed the back of his neck.
"You thought about lava didn't you?" she stepped in, avoiding the melted mess beneath her. Nikolai nodded in response.
"Don't worry Nicky, I'm not going to throw you away," she grinned evily. Nikolai twiched.
"Hah, relax Nicky, I was just joking, I'll never throw you away." she smiled.
"So, why did you give me these powers in the first place anyway, I seem, dangerous." he looked at his hands. Celestia took a step towards Nikolai.
"I'm sure you'll be able to control them." she stated reasurringly. Nikolai sighed, he knew that Celestia could be trusted, if not why would she leave him with powers such as these?
"Now Nicky, would you like some breakfast?" (breakfest?)
His stomach turned, losing all his apetite in a mere second.
"Ah, no, I don't feel like eating or drinking anything at all." he paused. "But I sure can use a clean up!"
Celestia smirked again.
'What's with all these smiles and grins and smirks and giggles and shit?' he thought, hoping that the alicorn didn't read his thoughts.
"Of course dear, there is a large bathtub, more like a pool, hot water, shampoos, conditioners, soaps, shower gels, towels, toothpaste and toothbrushes."
"It seems like you've been planning this for a long time eh?" he joked, Celestia got the joke and giggled.
"Oh, you naughty boy!" she poked him playfully.
"Well, I better get cleaning, see you in a bit Tia." he walked, only to stop dead in his tracks.
"Wait, what about human clothes? I sure as hell can't wear pony ones." he informed. Celestia's horn glowed, the aura was focused on a big wardrobe, it opened, revealing different types of human clothes, from sporting to formal.
"This is plotted right?" he was dumbfounded. Celestia giggled, yet again, this was starting to get creepy.
"No, I knew of humans since I banished Luna... I...no, let us not talk about this matter." she rubbed her nose bridge with a hoof, squeezing her eyes tightly.
"'Tia, are you okay?" asked Nikolai.
"Y-yes, I'm perfectly fine." she replied.
"Well, I better be off, thanks!" he went inside the bathroom, shutting the door, but not locking or bolting it.
Celestia was right, the bathtub was large, it had a showerhead too, aside from it there were a few large towels hanging, a sink with a mirror above it. A window that exposed half of Canterlot. On the side of the bathtub there were various bottles for hygiene. Too many to care for.
He turned on the water, filling the tub up. He fully undressed himself and threw the clothes aside, dipping himself in the warm water, it was the right temperature. His muscles quickly relaxed, taking off the dirt from the previous days of sweating and fighting. He thought about filtrating the water, because first you needed to take a shower before sipping yourself in, swimming in your own dirt and sweat is kind of...disgusting.
He pulled the plug out, all the dirty water drained down the canals, or whereever the water went in Equestria. He filled the tub back again. Now he can relax.
(Wait did I say that he was fully undressed? Eeewww.)
He was about to drift off when a knock on the bathroom door pierced his ears.
"Hey Nicky, it's Tia, can I come in?"
'What, is she being serious?!'
"But, I'm naked!" he replied.
"So? Ponies don't wear clothes do they?"
"As it turns out I'm not a pony, and humans wear clothes for obvious reasons!"
"Oh stop being a smartass and let me in!"
"The door wasn't locked."
He could cleary hear that Celestia had said 'bugger'. The door creaked open, Celestia entered the bathroom and shut, bolted and locked the door.
"Uhm...why are you locking it?" he asked, a bit creeped out from Celestia's actions, lacking for a better word.
"Shh, now, just relax I'll be right over." she said as she began to take off her golden hoofshoes, her tiara and chestpiece, she was completely naked, lack for a better word, but ponies are ALWAYS naked. Why did this make such a difference?
She neared the tub, lifting a hoof up.
"Tia...um...what are you doing?" he asked, taken aback.
"I'm getting in silly!" she responded playfully. Sometimes Princess Celestia acts so weirdly, Nikolai doubts if it isn't her sister in a disguise. She was now fully in the tub, well the water level only reached her waist and up to the chest, somewhere in the middle, above her belly button. (If ponies do have belly buttons wow.)
"Ahh, this is nice." she commented as she shifted closer to Nikolai.
'Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts, don't make contact with the royal pony next to you, don't even look at her body, 'cuz you know when you look at females you get a bloody boner, and you have no underwear, and THANK GOD the water is thick so she can't see your junk.'
"So Nicky, tell me what happened before you arrived in Equestria." she smiled, shifting closer to Nikolai.
'Oh god, now she's asking about a story? Fuck that shi-'
'Since when did I get a second voice?'
'Since the day you were born, asshole.'
'...'
'Sorry I called myself asshole, just continue your love filled sotry with Tia.'
'Shut up.'
'Fine, I'll go away.'
"Nicky? Nicky? Are you asleep?" Celestia snapped him back to reality.
"Huh...wha?"
"Oh good, you aren't awake."
"Where were we?" he asked.
"At the part where you were about to slid your tongue inside my mouth." she pulled up a fake seducive smile. Nikolai gulped. The salivia litelary stuck between his pipe.
"Hah, I'm only joking, you humans are so easy to embarras." she nudged him playfully.
Nikolai and Celestia were sitting next to eachother in the bathtub, the water was getting cold.
"So Nikolai, have you decided where you would stay?" Celestia asked, ready to exit the tub.
"Canterlot is too crowded, and I don't know anyone except for you, and it's full of nosy and 'high-class' ponies, they would probably not accept me in their community." he replied.
Celestia chuckled as she got out of the tub, levitating a large towel.
"Heh, I can agree to that, so, Ponyville is your place right?" she began wiping her coat.
"Yeah, and I made some friends there too." he smirked. Celestia began wiping her hind legs.
"Oh? And who might they be?" she asked curiously without stopping her actions.
"Let's see, Rainbow Dash, Twilight and Rarity were first to meet me when I came here. Then Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Fluttershy. They helped me with my wounds, nice ponies."
"And fallen in love with Rainbow Dash." Celestia said, somewhat sounding dissappointed.
"Ah! How did you know?"
"I know many things."
"Like?"
"Right now, you have an erection."
He covered his face in embarrasment.
"I shouldn't have even asked."
Celestia threw the towel over her shoulder and exited the bathroom.
"Meet me at the throne room when you are done." with that she closed it behind her.
'At least you didn't have to penetrate her.'
'God! How could my own second voice even think that!? You sick bastard.'
'Hey, I'm just sayin', it could've gone worse, like, a blowj-'
'No more! Just keep quiet, no more beastiality stuff.'
'Fuck you too Nick.'
'Whatever.'
Nikolai slowly got up from the tub, he took a towel and began drying himself. When he was done, he threw it where Celestia threw her's. He took a new towel and wrapped it around his waist, covering his crotch and backside, the towel was reaching his knees. (Arrows, anyone?)
Nikolai pushed open the bathroom door, he went over the wardrobe full of human clothes, he grabbed the handles and pulled.
He took out a simple, grey hoodie and a pair of black trousers. Along with a pair of grey-black creps. He put them all on. Including the hood over his head.
'Hey, don't wear hats or hoods indoors, it's a sign of idiotism.'
'Are you sure you're in my head?'
'Apart from the chicken wings, yes, I'm in your head.'
'Hardy har har, funny.'
'I should got to Las Vegas and be a comedian!'
'Riiight.'
He exited the doorless room and proceeded down a long hallway. He catched up to a guard.
"Excuse me good sir, can you give me directions to the throne room?" he asked politely.
"Absolutely, head straight down and turn to your left on the first corner, walk forward and you should see a pair of big doors." he directed.
"You deserve a cookie." Nikolai whispered.
"What?" the guard was somewhat confused.
"Nothing at all, thank you kind sir."
"Any time." he waved as Nikolai picked up his pace.
Nikolai pushed open the throne doors, tha guards on the sides quickly grabbed him as an intruder.
"Release him!" Celestia spoke loudly, they obeyed and loosened their grip, but they were still watching him, very closely.
"Thank you 'Tia." Nikolai dusted himself off. The guards both gasped at the nickname.
"Your highness, he has used the name that only your sister Princess Luna is permitted!" one of them said.
"Don't worry, we have become close friends." she winked at Nikolai.
"So Nicky, you are moving into Ponyville right?" Celestia stood from her seat and approached Nikolai.
"Yes, I'm thinking about getting a new house, but I should work for mo-"
"Do not worry, this should cover the best accomodation in Ponyville, also any kind of furniture, remember, just don't burn down anything." she smiled and pecked him on the cheek.
"See you soon Nicky!"
Celestia's horn began to glow, and Nikolai disspated from the throne room.
"Tia, you greedy pony." commented Luna, who was sitting quietly throughout the entire time.
"What can I say?" Celestia shrugged.
__
Nikolai dropped his feet on a royal carriege, with a big wooden chest on it. In front of the carriege, two royal pegasus guards were hooked onto it.
"Sir Nikolai, proceed, we will take you to Twilight Sparkle's house, she will be surprised to see you. That chest is what Princess Celestia has given you." the left one said.
"Right-o." Nikolai stepped in, and the carriege began to levitate.
'Right-o? You sound like a Englishman, or Scotsman.'
'You want a conversation or something?'
'That'd be great!'
'Fine.'
'What are you gonna do when you get a new house?'
'Je nem pas.'
'Since when did you learn French?'
'Sixth grade.'
'That was like in 2024, how could you remember?'
'I don't.'
A minute went on as none of them spoke.
"Excuse me sir, what year are we?" Nikolai asked one of the pegasus ponies.
"It is 1011 sir, why do you ask?" he replied with a question.
"1011?! H-how is tha...no, it's like the first cave man wasn't invented!"
'He wasn't invented dumbass.'
"First...cave man?" the guards looked at eachother.
'Ask 'em about phones and other electronics!'
"Do you ponies use electric devices?" he asked. The guards shook their heads in dissapproval.
"Do you use electricity AT ALL?" he asked again, recieving the same response from them. Nikolai sighed and slumped on tye seat.
"Are you okay sir, do we need to make a stop?" one of the pegasi asked.
"No, no continue."
Nikolai drove a hand through his thick hair.
'Back in time eh?'
'Then how do they got those street lamps, or light at all?!'
'Unicorn magic.'
'Shit!'
'Imma take out your tongue if you continue to spill the milk.'
'Whatever.'
'You are a power station yourself, no, you are probably the most overpowered piece of shit I've ever seen! Four times the sun, that's gotta be alot of bloody volts.'
'Now who's spilling the milk?'
'I don't spill the milk, I drink it.'
'Uh-huh.'
Again silence filled the air, until the pegasi came to a stop.
"Sir Nikolai, we have arrived at Ponyville, take the chest and head for the library, which is in front of us."
Nikolai took the chest and the guards flew off with the carriege.
He proceeded towards the library, he set down the chest and lightly knocked on the door. A series of hoofsteps followed by a crashing sound came from inside. There was weak mumbling, the door covered in a purple aura and opened. Inside was a mane-scratching Twilight.
"Sorry, but if you're here to borrow or return a book I cannot help you..." she stopped and looked up to the hoodied human.
"N...Nicky...? Is that...you?" her eyes widened and she stopped scratching her mane.
"Yes Twilight, it's me, I came back." (no pun intented)
She took a step back, only the to leap up into a very, very tight embrace. Happy tears were running down Twilight's cheeks. She was squealing in delight.
"Oh for Celestia's sake, where have you been?! I missed you SO much!"
'Oh look, ze little pony misses you!'
'Now it's not the best time.'
'You should give me a name.'
'Later.'
Nikolai hugged back, but with less force than Twilight.
"Where have you been all this time?" Twilight broke the hug.
"I was with 'Tia." he replied. Twilight tilted her head.
"Tia? Who's that?" she asked.
"Princess Celestia, shortened to Tia."
'Surprise buttsecks.'
'What?'
'Turn around.'
Nikolai turned around, only to see a very, very, very widly grinning cyan pegasus, her eyes were practicly beaming with happiness, her snow white teeth almost reflecting the sun.
"Dashie?"
She quickly tackled him to the ground, showering his neck and cheeks with kisses.
"I'm happy to see you too Dashie." he hugged her.
'I got 99 problems but the bitch ain't won.'
'What?'
'Just a song that you heard a year ago.'
'There was a game with it right?'
'Yes, Battlefield three. You've played it for months.'
'It was awesome.'
'That's why you jizzed in your pants when you won the round.'
'I didn't.'
'Sure you haven't.'
'Shut up.'
'Ass.'
Dash stopped kissing him and lifted her head up, smiling like never before.
"I knew you'd be back, you'll never leave me." she nuzzled him.
Someone, more like somepony rudely cleared their throat. It was Twilight, with a unamused look on her face. Since when did she need to be entertained?
"Dash, you're outside, acting like an animal." she said, rudely.
"Are you calling me an animal!?" Dash stood up and faced Twilight, inches away from her face.
"Just saying." Twilight evily smirked. Dash huffed and faced Nikolai.
"Come on Nicky, let's go, we're wasting our time here." Dash raised her head proudly.
"I wanted to buy a new house, but it seems like I need a place to stay until they've set it up." he said, standing and dusting himself off.
"You can stay at my place!" Dash almost yelled, that big grin appearing on her face again.
"Dashie, I can't fly, nor stay on clouds."
'What about your nuclear, light energy electricity thingie energy!?'
'Not yet, they might freak out or something.'
'What, by an overpowered bi-pedal?'
'Da.'
'Point.'
Dash's grin and sparkly eyes quickly disspated from her expression.
"G-gosh, I guess you're right, where are you gonna stay then?" she asked, looking up to Nikolai.
"Maybe Twilight can lend me a few nights?"
"Absolutely!" Twilight quickly replied.
"I'm staying where he is!" Dash stated.
"Ugh...fine, if only Nicky wants to share a bed with you." Twilight stuck out her tongue in fake disgust, in reality, she wants to do that.
"You don't mind me snuggling next to you?" Dash's grin appeared back again.
"Not at all, there's even something I want to show you."
'Your big penis?'
'Zip it.'
'Okay okay.'
"Oh how cool! I can't wait! Let's go in!" she flapped her wings and began hovering.
"Whoa, hold yer ponies, I haven't ordered the house yet."
Dash grinned even wider, getting a few ideas about 'moving in' with Nikolai.
Nikolai and Rainbow Dash came out of the Mayor's office, having already ordered the new house, Nikolai was holding a piece of parchment in his left hand, the other hand holding the chest with bits.
"So tell me about it, how many rooms, bathrooms, bedrooms~" she said the last word with a sly smile.
'Oh look, she's into bestiality.'
'Do you know what it even means?'
'Yes, having sex with an animal.'
'So you're saying that Dash is an animal?'
'She is a pony, afterall.'
'But she's intellegent.'
'Who said that she was stupid?'
'You, having sex with a animal that's unintellegent and doesn't have a say in it. That's bestiality, I think.'
'So you're into it?'
'Ahm...'
'Your girlfriend is so gonna kick your ass.'
'Yeah...'
"Nicky, hey, you asleep?" Dash waved a hoof in front of his face. He lifted his head up.
"N-no, just, thinking is all." he responded, shaking his head. He tucked the parchment in his pocket. Dash smiled and craned her neck in for a kiss. Nikolai lifted a hand up to Dash's lips, cancelling the kiss.
"Dash I don't think we should even touch mouths." he said coldly, Dash backed up, lifting an eyebrow and tilting her head in confusion.
"Why not, it's not like we've never kissed before." she gave him a smug smile. Dash pressed her wings against her sides, dropping to the ground on her hooves.
'Hey, that reminds you of that scene in Battlefield Three?'
'Now not's the time for games boy.'
'Mah boi.'
'Ye.'
'Just kiss her, what's the worse that could happen?'
'One we're outside, two I'm a human and she's a pony, three there are other ponies outside, they'll think that I'm forcing myself on her. Don't wanna end up full of hoofmarks y'know.'
'Point.'
"So Dash, wanna go and see the house?" Nikolai asked, looking at the frowning pegasus. Dash nodded slightly. They began walking aide by side to a big wooden mansion, a three story building. A few ponies with hardhats were outside, blabbing about with blueprints.
"Wow, that's tall for an earthbound house." Dash commented.
"Yeah, worth the bits eh." Nikolai commented back.
"How did you get them anyway?" Dash asked, poking the wooden chest in Nikolai's grasp. "Gift from Princess Celestia herself." he answered, hoping that Dash wouldn't do something stupid. "Cool." was her only comment. Night was beggining to settle, really fast.
"We should go back to Twilight's, the house won't be ready 'till morning." said Nikolai, turning to the library's direction.
Dash and Nikolai walked through the night towards the library, only to he stopped in their tracks by three smugglers. All of them were earth ponies with hoodies that cocered their faces.
"What's in tha' chest?" one if them asked, nearing the couple. "Bits, what's it to you?" Nikolai kept his compousure. "Giv' it 'ere!" one of them demanded. "No can do sir, me and my friend here are going to spend it on things you can't even dream about." Nikolai said softly. "A little-" the mugger stopped, seeing how tal Nikolai was. "Little?" asked Nikolai. "Yer 'lil pegasus friend will serve us good, giv' 'er then!" that was a silly demand. "You're asking me to give up my friend?" Nikolai raised an eyebrow through the hoodie. "Aye." the mugger replied. "I suggest you take your ass back to your family, I don't take that kind of shit from anyone, especially if it's directed towards my friend." Nikolai said coldly. Dash nuzzled him.
"Ah don' care, is either tha' chest or 'er." said one of them in a thick wester accent.
'Light 'em up.'
'Not yet you idiot.'
'SURPRISE BUTTSECKS!'
'What?'
'Six o'clock!'
Nikolai turned around, to see a charging earth pony, it's head collided with Nikolai's stomach. He dropped on the ground, along with the chest, the wind in his lungs was knocked out.
'That's it, deal with these fuckers.'
'Agree.'
Nikolai stood up slowly, his thoughts were focused on nuclear energy. His right arm indulfed in a green flame, burning down a part of the hoodie. Dash gasped.
"I suggest you leave before I burn your sorry ass." he stared at the earth pony. "Now." he threatened. The muggers ran away as fast as possible. The flame on his arm ceased, leaving exposed white skin. Dash's eyes were wide as saucers.
"What...the hay?" she tilted her head. "Dude, that was awesome! How did you do that?!" Dash jumped up in the air, examining Nikolai's arm.
"Magic." he snorted twice.
"No seriously, that was EPIC!" Dash almost yelled. "Does it hurt?" she asked, not taking her eyes of him. "It does others, but it doesn't have a effect on me." he replied simply. "Show me again!" Dash yelled. "Okay." Nikolai took a few steps back and concertrated his mind.
His eyes and arms lit up in a violent, red flame. Dash 'ooh'd' and 'aah'd' at the light before her.
"Whoa! Awesome, shoot something!" she grinned, waiting for something 'awesome' to happen. Nikolai lifted his hand towards Dash. Her smile disspated, turning into an uncomfortable frown.
"Hah! Just kidding Dashie." he shifted his hand towards the sky. His arm glowed brighter, until a red sizzling bolt was created and zapped into the air, like a flare.
An blue unicorn mare was standing behind a bush, watching the scenery of red glow.
"Impressive." she said in a muffled voice.
"So Dash, that is nuclear energy, magic more like it." Dash squealed like a fan-girl. "Promise me you won't wont tell anypony or anyone." he said. Dash squaled once more. "I promise! That was so cool!"
Nikolai ceased the glow, returning to his old self again. With the heat out of the place, Dash jumped up. Wrapping her hooves around him.
The blue mare that was behind the bush gulped. "Looks like I'll have some trouble with this one." she continued to watch.
"Come on Dashie, let's go back to the library." Nikolai said as he picked up the chest. Dash walked up besids him.
"So, you think we'll have so fun tonight?" Dash nudged him.
'See! I told you that she wants it!'
'Shut. Up.'
'Fine, I'll ignore you too!'
'Like I give half a shit.'
'You will in time of need.'
'Please, that sounds like a prophecy or something.'
'Just keep walking with the beautiful cyan pegasus next to you.'
Nikolai's eyes were closed, he felt like he was in a lying position. He was experincing a massive headache, his brain was practicly banging against his inner skull. He couldn't feel any of his limbs, apart from the heat around him.
He tried to open his eyes, only to close them again because of the shimering, eye blinding light. He grunted and tried again, this time opening them slowly, one by one. His eyes were blurry, but quickly adjusting to the bright light. He made out his surroundings.
It looked like a man with some kind of goggled helmet, a metal chest piece across his brown body armor. The chestpiece wrote 'NCR' and the helmet had 'MP' written on it. The man was holding a flashlight, pointing it straight into Nikolai's face.
"Looks like you got dumped buddy, come on get up." the man said, not much of man, he looked in his primes. Prefarbably twenty to twenty five. "Come on sunshine get up." he said again. Nikolai groaned, not standing up, his body was stiff. "Sargeant Nick, get the fuck up, Ambasaddor Crocker needs a report in." he said again, turning off the flashlight and leaving it in his pocket. He grabbed Nikolai by the shoulders and pulled him up. Nikolai quickly got to his feet, the first thing he noticed was the stripper dancing in front of him.
And then the giant tower that looked like a modern mushroom, it had a giant neon sign saying 'Lucky 38' it was flashing from time to time, indicating low power. Then the Gomorrah casino to his right. A few police robots were rolling on their spurs.
'Is this...?'
'Welcome to New Vegas.'
'But how?'
'Hah, why are you asking me, that pony Rose dropped a vase of flowers on your head, by accident.'
'Wha-'
'Dude, you were knocked uncouncious by the vase, and woke up here.'
'But this is from a game, Fallout New Vegas, we bought it last year!'
'Yeah and now you're in it. As an NCR soldier, Sargeant rank, first platoon, second battalion, bravo company.'
'Just look at your record file.'
'Where?'
'In your little bag thingy.'
Nikolai looked around his brown armor, and indeed found a small bag with a file in it. He ignored it, that wasn't important now.
'So is this a dream?'
'Yeah, preety much, think of an Service Rifle.'
Nikolai focused an image on the firearm. It appeared in his hands.
"We're not allowed to carry weapons on the Strip, safety and disarm it Nick.'
'This is boring, I need ponies.'
'Just shoot yourself and you'll wake up.'
'Uh-huh.'
Nikolai swapped the rifle towards his temple, and pulled the trigger, recieving robotic warnings, gasps, shouts and screams.
__
He woke up in a cozy bed, a cream yellow, with a rose red mane mare was standing over him, a worried expression on her face.
"Oh thank the Celestia you're awake, I thought I killed you or something with those stupid flowers!" she flung forward, burying her muzzle in his shoulder. Tightly hugging his body.
"Uhh...you're welcome? Where am I?" he asked, the mare softened her grip and lifted her head up. "I brought you to my house when you were knocked out, I'm so, so sorry for that. It was just an accident!" she said, desperetly for some reason.
"Ugh...what about Dash?" he asked, starting to get up. She quickly pushed him back on the bed. "No, no no, y-you need to rest for now." she said, grabbing an unrecognazable bottle from the night stand.
"Thank you for helping me Miss..."
"Rose."
"Huh...should've seen it coming."
He focused his view on her flank, not for perverted reasons, only to see her cutie mark, and infact it was, a rose.
"What's yours?" she asked. Nikolai shifted in the bed, taking a more comfortble position. "Nikolai, but you can call me Nick." he replied. "How about 'Nicky'?" she grinned in a very disturbing way. Suddenly, all the lights in the room went out. Nikolai could make out the shape of Rose approaching him. She held something in her hoof. Something sparkly.
"Oh horse feathers, power cut, those unicorns can't keep up the maintanence." Rose said somewhat dissappointed. Nikolai giggled. "Don't worry Rosie." he said, and focused. In a second, all the candles next to the bed glowed in a warm pink-red colour.
'Pink, seriously?'
'What else then? Green?'
'Just like your ass.'
'My ass isn't green.'
'It became green when those green aliens probed your ass with a green tube.'
'I wasn't abducted.'
'I meant your parents.'
'My dad is in the military and my mom...'
'What 'bout her?'
'Ti suka blin.'
'Oi! No swearing!'
'Zaknis.'
'Nope. My neck extends.'
'You don't have one.'
'Pffft, shows how much you know. Rose inbound.'
He snapped back to reality by Rose's muzzle against his mouth.
'Eeww, just gross.'
'...the fuck?'
Rose pulled away, a satisfied smile spread across her face. A trail of salivia connected her tongue to Nikolai's.
"W...what was that for?" Nikolai asked quietly, heat was building up in his body, an uncomfortable senesation was growing between his legs.
"T-The atmosphere, it was so romantic, you made it romantic,.and I couldn't resist." she smiled and pulled in again, their lips met, their tongues danced around eachother.
'What in the military God are you doing?'
'Kissing a pony.'
'And it's not disturbing?'
'No.'
'Son, I'll have you khaki for six weeks!'
They continued to 'make out' with eachother, salivia was dripping from their mouths and into the bedsheets. The sensation between Nikolai's legs was growing, soon he felt pressure against his trousers. And his... ( you know ).
Rose jumped ontop of Nikolai, not breaking the kiss. His ( god, I'm not writing those words ) was pressing up against Rose's stomach. She let out a throaty moan in their kiss.
'Oh man, I see where this is going.'
'Indeed.'
Rose broke the kiss once again, and lifted up her hoof. A sly smile spread across Nikolai's face.
'Here I am, gone from the Zone into the world of ponies, it all happened so fast, the events here go by a blink of an eye, there's nothing like chillin' with ponies all day. Hanging out with my friends is the best experience ever, simply said. I don't know what I would do without them. Friendship really is magic, afterall. Now with these powers, they are practicly useless, I never hurt anyone or anypony with them. Well, I sometimes use them to frighten muggers or trouble makers. Now that fluffy Twilight is teaching me something called 'Power Shouts', it's awesome because I get to push stuff, with my shout! Oh man this is awesome. About that house I bought, it didn't turn out very well, Pinkie Pie jumped out from behind me and I lit the whole thing on fire. By accident. So I ended up living in Twilight's. Better than alone right? I still miss Earth, all its technology and cars, but who needs those things when you have ponies? Oh Twilight is speaking!'
"Now, Nicky, try to shout, Fus." she said, her muzzle buried deep in a book. Nikolai took a deep breath in, he opened his mouth and shouted.
"PUSS!" he fell and began rolling on the ground, laughing his ass off.
"Not funny, now do it for real." she said, not even amused by it. She lifted her head from the book and adjusted her reading glasses with a hoof. "Go on." she said. Nikolai took a step back. He inhaled deeply and shouted.
"FUS!"
A green swirling wind came from particulary nowhere, it blowed Twilight right off her hooves, also breaking a few trees. "Wow! This shit is powerful!" he said happily, quite impressed by the Shout. "Okay, is there a more powerful one?" he questioned looking over the fallen Twilight. "Jesus, you alright?" he ran to her side.
"Ugh...I'm fine, the force pushed me. I'm standing behind you this time." she said, beggining to get up.
'Wait...'
"If you knew that the Shout pushes stuff out of it's way, why did you stand in front of me anyway?"
Twilight gulped, she knew that she had made a physics mistake, sort of, something like that, how the hell am I supposed to know eh? Exactly.
"I uh...I th-think I made a...uh..." she trailed off, quite embarrased by her 'failiure'. "Made a mistake." Nikolai finished for her. Twilight hung her head. "Yeah, a simple mistake." she levitated her reading glasses back to her muzzle, and tucked the book in her saddlebag. "Come on, it's getting late." she said and turned her gaze upon the setting sun which was casting a series of red and orange layers upon Ponyville. "Yeah, let's go Twi." he agreed.
They began walking down a cobblestone path that lead directly into Ponyville. Twilight began a small conversation.
"So Nicky, how do you find it in Equestria, Ponyville specifficly?" Twilight began. "I find it quite the place, better where I lived." he answered. "What's so bad about Earth, or your country?" Twilight asked again. "Our country is blamed for communism, which I don't see anything wrong with, the Americans have patriotism." Nikolai looked off to the still setting sun. "Americans?" Twilight asked. "Yes, another race of humans, they speak English, the languege that we speak now." he looked back at Twilight. "No, we speak Equestrian, not, 'English'." she disgreed. Nikolai rolled his eyes. "Yes Twilight, you're right, I don't want to argue with you, sorry." he looked away, a satisfied grin spread across Twilight's lips. "No need to worry, I don't want to argue with you either." Twilight nuzzled his waist. Wait...waist?
Nikolai looked over Twilight, indeed her head was reaching his waist, just an inch above the bone thing.
'Wow, they grow up so fast... *sniff*.' it was Nikolai's second voice that lay in his brain, forever.
'Haven't seen you in a while eh disembodied friend.'
'Give a naem, nao!'
'Okay, how about, Rick?"
'Rick ze Prick?'
'Hah, funny you should say.'
'I'm a fucking comedian!'
'I see.'
'Private Joker?'
'From that Full Metal Jacket film? Nah.'
'Dick?'
'Har har, it fits so perfectly with my personality.'
'Actually it does!'
'Shut up, ya rude boy.'
'Okay, I'll call you, Will.'
'Will?'
'Da, because you have alot of willpower, in my mind though.'
'I haz powerz over yar brein! Whooooou!'
'Uh-huh, whatever Will.'
'Incoming pony twelve o'clock, probably militia.'
'Will, stop it.'
'It's got an AT launcher!'
'Seriously, stop it.'
'Bah, no fun.'
Nikolai came back to reality, him and Twilight had already reached the library door, she was fiddling with the lock. In front of Nikolai, Applejack stood a few inches away from him.
"Howdy pardner!" she tilted her hat.
'I want that hat.'
'Will quit it.'
'Hat!'
'No, bad Will!'
'HaaAat!'
"Hi Applejack, how's it going?" Nikolai respectfully shook her hoof. "Eh, nutin' in particular, jus' hangin' out. Watcha doin'?" Applejack looked over the lock-fiddling Twilight. "Howdy Twi!"
"Heya Applejack." Twilight continued to fiddle with the lock. "So, where ya'll headin'?" Applejack asked, returning her gaze back to Nikolai. "Actually we were going to bed, we were practicing a few cool tricks and wore us out." Nikolai replied. "Well okay, Ah'll see ya'll in the mornin'! G'night!" with that Applejack trotted off to Sweet Apple Acres. There was a satisfying 'click' noise.
"Haha! Got the bugger!" Twilight yelled in victory over the lock. The door opened with a quiet creak. Revealing a sleeping dragon in a small bed. They quietly entered and closed the door behind them making less noise as possible. They quietly made their way up the stairs and entered the bedroom, there was only one double bed. Nikolai quizzingly looked Twilight in the eyes, questioning 'are you serious?'.
"Oh come on, what's the worse that could happen?" she said in a whisper. Nikolai shrugged, too tired of the day to think. Twilight made her way to a wardrobe and opened it, taking out a beautiful, red gleaming transperent dress. Nikolai facepalmed.
'She's just like my girlfriend back on Earth.'
'Eayup.'
Twilight hopped into the bed, quickly burying her body under the sheets. "Come on, take those off and come here." she said in a raised whisper. Nikolai sighed and began to undress. Only leaving a white shirt and a pair of boxers. He lifted a part of the bedsheet and layed down. Resting his head on the pillow. Twilight nuzzled up to him. "Twilight, what the bloo-" he was hushed by Twilight's hoof on his lips. "Just go to sleep." she smiled and closed her eyes, resting her head on Nikolai's chest.
'Riiiiiiiight.'
'Fucken A.'
Nikolai placed his hand over Twilight's side. Soon, exhaustion took them and they both fell in a bliss of dreams.
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.
'Will, you're already developing feelings for him. I know it, I'm your mind, and your mind tells you that you like him.'
Nikolai felt heat going up his chest and face.
'Will, stop before I fuckin' blush!'
Nikolai sighed and lumped back on the couch, throwing his head back and sighing. He heard hoofsteps approach him, Nikolai turned around the couch and saw White Bolt, his white coat whiter and cleaner than before, all the dirt and rain water gone from his mane, revealing it's true blue colour, but his wing was still hanging like a branch. "Doesn't that hurt?" Nikolai asked, inspecting the damaged wing. "Y-yeah, when something touches it though, when it's not interacted with, it's fine, it doesn't hurt now." he answered, smiling at Nikolai, he returned the smile. "I guess you're hungry too eh?" Nikolai said, sitting up from the couch, White Bolt nodded sheepleshly. "Okay, I don't kniw how to cook, and I don't think Twilight left any food as she said in the letter." Nikolai pondered this for a second, rubbing his chin as if he had a goatee. "Twilight? Who's that?" White Bolt asked.
'Your marefriend! Say it!'
'Shut it.'
"She's just a friend if mine, I live with her, here."
'Damn you!'
"W-what? T-there was only one bed there, and one bedroom, so you've..."
"No, no no no! I haven't done it, relax! Jeez kid, how could you even think like that, and before you asked yes, we shared a bed, and nothing happened."
White Bolt frowned for a moment, then his frown turned into a small smirk that creeped the end of his mouth. "Heh, me gusta." he said.
The door knob turned from the outside, indicating that someone was coming in. The door opened, revealing a small baby dragon, with a mouthfull of random coloured gems. "Fey huys!" he muffly said, then turned his head to the white stallion. "Fos hat?" Spike asked through the mouthfull of gems, again. "Spike, this is my new friend, White Bolt, I met him around Ponyville at Sugar Cube corner." Nikolai lied. Spike waved a claw at him, "Hy Wite Boult!" Spike gulped the gems down his throat. "I'm Spike, Twilight's number one assistant!" he puffed out his chest. "Hey Spike, could you make dinner for two? I don't have any cooking skills whatsoever." Nikolai requested. Spike tilted his head, raising an eyebrow. "Dinner...for two?" he then realized it. "Oooooooooooh, so you're a colt cuddler!" Spike's eyes shot up. "Colt cuddler?" Nikolai said confused. "Gay." Spike said flatly.
'Hah, told you.'
'FFFFFUUUU-'
"OH HELL NO! I AIN'T GAY! HE'S JUST A FRIEND I MET! I AIN'T A COLT CUDDLER!"
"Who ain't a colt cuddler?" asked a voice from the door. The three personel (umm, souls then?) turned around to see an orange earth pony wearing a Stetson hat.
'Dat hat...oh drool!'
'Zip it!'
"I ain't gay Applejack, Spike is saying it because I'm having dinner with my newfound comrade here." Nikolai pointed out to White Bolt, who was hiding behind his mane like Fluttershy with a mad blush on his cheeks.
'He likes you too'
'I swear to God I'm going to slap your shit Will!'
'Then your hand will smell bad, like my shit smells of roses.'
'Shut. The. Fuck. Up for ten GODDAMN minutes!'
'Fine, what an asshole.'
"So, yer havin' dinner, with a colt?" Applejack tapped her chin with a hoof, until saying. "Welp, Ah don' see nutin' wrong with tha', well, Ah'm off, see ya everypony in the mornin'!" she walked out of their sight. Nikolai looked at Spike. "Why you cheeky bugger." Spike gulped.
'Strangle the life out of him!'
"Spike, please, about that dinner for two." Nikolai reminded, Spike saluted and bolted to the kitchen.
'Damn you!'
Nikolai and White Bolt sat on the table across eachother, there was an awkward silence in the air.
'Awkward time is awkward.'
Nikolai facepalmed and sighed. "What is it Nicky?" asked White Bolt, his head tilted in a very adorable way, well, to Nikolai that is.
'D'aaaawww, looky him.'
'Nick, you're getting soft, strenghten up.'
'R-right.'
'YOU'RE STUTTERING IN YOUR THOUGHTS, YOU COLT DICK LOVING GAY ASSHOLE!'
'FUCK YOU WILL, I DON'T FUCKING NEED YOU, YOU ARE MESSING UP MY FUCKING LIFE!'
'Oh, so now I'M messing up your life? I'm keeping you away from that stallion's mouth! If it wasn't for me, you'd be in bed right now, penetrating eachother.'
'Please, just leave me alone to finish my night.'
'So you can reach White's butthole?'
'No, I just want to go to bed and sleep this off.'
'With White?'
'Yes.'
'...'
'Will?'
'...'
'Will, what happened?'
'...I...'
'What the hell are you doing man?'
'I'm leaving you Nick, I won't stand this.'
'What?!'
'Just kiddin', so you like White Bolt?'
'Yes.'
'You love him?'
'I don't know.'
'You like vodka?'
'Yes.'
'Ya like guns and bullets?'
'Fuck yes!'
'You like ponies?'
'Yeah, they're cool and cute.'
'Mares or stallions?'
'Both.'
'Bisexual.'
'What?'
'You're a bisexual, you're into both genders.'
'Oh, that's quite the surprise.'
'Yeah...'
"Dinner is ready!" shouted Spike as he brought a small metal cart. He placed two plates for the personel on the table. "Dig in!" he said again.
A/N: This chapter was kinda uncomfortable to write, seriously, there won't be any sexual themes further on.
Nikolai and White Bolt were intesitvly staring at eachother's eyes across the table, their cheeks began changing colour.
"Ain't you guys gonna eat?" Spike asked concerned, head tilted and a raised eyebrow. "Well just say something!" he clicked his fingers in front of Nikolai's eyes, but he didn't respond, his gaze never broke. Same for White Bolt, who's cheeks were now completely glowing in pink and red.
'What the bloody crap are you doing, Nick?'
'I don't know.'
'What do you mean you don't know? You're staring at him!'
'I can't move man!'
His trance was broke by a triplet of knocks on the door, Spike quickly rushed to it and opened. "O hai, Rainbow Dash, what brings you here?" Spike said. "Is Nicky here, I wanna show him somethin' awesome!" came a tomboyish voice from beyond the doorway. "Yes, he's here, with somepony else though." Spike turned his attention to the staring couple at the table. "With who?" a blue hoof pushed Spike out of the way and entered. It was Rainbow Dash, with wide eyes and a neutral expression. She saw Nikolai, then White Bolt. "Who's that?" she asked.
'Your coltfriend!'
"Just a colt-ehrm, a friend, just a newfound friend." Nikolai replied with a sheeplesh smile. "Riiiiight." Dash crossed her hooves across her chest, a small smirk appearing in the corner of her mouth. "What's your name?" Dash asked, diverting her attention to the white blushing stallion. "W-White B-Bolt." he stammered. "Well okay, come on, I wanna show you something cool, White Bolt and Spike can come too." with that, Dash bolted through the door. "Let's go then!" Nikolai followed Dash out of the door, Spike and White Bolt proceeded too.
__
The three personel came to a big, green clearing, where not a single tree could be seen. Dash was already hovering in the air, a pride smile on her face. She flew up and up, up and up until she was out of sight, covered by the clouds. Dash then flew down with all her might, and then pulled up, making weird shapes in the process. In the end she landed next to Nikolai and pointed up. A cloud made heart shape was floating.
'Aaawwww, she still loves you.'
'I know, now, I wanna show them something really cool.'
'Fus!'
'Aha!'
"Aaawww, Dashie, how lovely of you." Nikolai patted the pegasus pony on the back, she blushed to the touch. He took a step back and inhaled deeply.
"FUS!" a green swirling wind came out of nowhere like before, pushing small rocks away. Spike screamed. "The dragon voice!" he yelled, taking a step back. "What?" Nikolai asked. "You are Dragonborn, a dragon slayer, you use the dragon shout. And I'm a dragon..." he gulped.
'Hah.'
"Spike, I'm not going to kill you, relax dude. Dragonborn? I thought that only existed in..."
'Skyrim.'
'That bloody game.'
"Hmm..." Nikolai rubbed his chin as if he had a goatee. "Sorry Spike, I didn't mean to scare you." Nikolai smiled as warmly as he could. Spike whew'd, "Okay, just don't use the shouts again, okay." Spike stood up and dusted himself off. "Whoa man, that was awesome!" complimented White Bolt, he rushed forward and hugged Nikolai around the waist, Dash gave him a death glare, Nikolai's cheeks enveloped in a deep shade of crimson.
'Shit, I done it.'
'Hah, look at you!'
'Don't mug it, Will."
'Sure, whatever, gay boy.'
'Ffff-'
"Oi! Whitey! Pick your own damn man!" Dash yelled as she pushed White Bolt to the ground, he fell on his side. "Dash! What the hell is wrong with you, for all I know you could've hurt him!" Nikolai quickly rushed to White Bolt's side and helped him up. White Bolt smiled. "Thanks."
Dash's ear twiched. "Oh I see, you're a coltcuddler! I didn't even know!" she yelled in irritation. "I'm not gay Dashie, he's just a friend, and friends take care of eachother. Isn't that right Boltie?" Nikolai faced White Bolt. "Y-yeah, you're absolutely r-right!" he stamered. "Boltie!? Already giving him cute nicknames!" her face filled with anger and jelousy. "Come on Dashie, you're just being jelous." a smug grin appeared on Nikolai's face. "Jelous!? Me?! Hah, no way man, I'm WAAY too cool to be jelous of something like this, hah!" she held her head high up, chest puffed out.
'Show off.'
'Hehehua!'
"Dashie please, stop acting like you don't care, I know you do." Nikolai stated. Dash sighed, all her pride washed away, she landed on the grass, "Yeah, sorry, no harm done?" she smiled. "No harm done." Nikolai leaned in and hugged her around the neck.
'Wazzap, she's warm dude.'
'Uh-huh, and that is because?'
'Well I don't know, Nick.'
Nikolai pulled away and looked Dash straight in the eyes, for some reason they were sparkling, and a bit wet. "Dash, have you been crying?" Nikolai asked. "N-no, I haven't." shebsaid with a sob. "Dashie, you were crying, I can cleary see that, now tell me, what's wrong."
"I...I was h-harrased..." she trailed off, her eyes quickly filled with tears. "Harrased? In what way?" Nikolai asked again. "S...se-s... I can't say it!" she lowered her head. "Come on Dashie, tell me, you can share everything with me." he reassured. "I was sexually harrased." she said flatly. Nikolai blinked.
'Ouch.'
"What?! By who!? How, why?!" he yelled, pulling Dash into a tight embrace, again. "N-no, I don't wanna pull into this mess." she said quietly. "No! You are my mare and I'll protect you from ANYTHING in the world!"
'My my, Nick, you're very protective over her eh?'
'Yeah, you can say that.'
'Well go on.'
'Right, right.'
He pulled away, holding her at arms lenght. "Now tell me, who's the sick bastard?" he asked. "H-his name is O-Ornald." she replied. "Where does he live?" Nikolai asked again. "Inner part of Ponyville, I'll show you later, I'm tired now." she yawned to confirm. "Okay Dashie, relax, and then we'll burn his meat!"
Dash looked at him, witha face saying 'you mad?'. "Just kidding." he planted a light kiss on Dash's cheek. "I'll see you later." with that, Dash waved a hoof a flew off.
"So, what should we do now?" Nikolai stood with his hands around his waist, gazing off into the blue sky, he sighed and turned to the white stallion next to him, who was too, looking up to the sky. "I don't know, why not just hang around town, meet some new ponies." White Bolt suggested, "Sure, let's go then." Nikolai agreed.
They began walking down an old dirt path, they passed random trees and bushes, until they came to a bench and saw two mares sitting on it, well, the mint mare was sitting with her back, like a human, the other one was sitting like a normal pony. Upon seeing the human, the mint one's eyes widened and her jaw dropped.
"Oh my Celestia! A human! I told you they existed Bon Bon!" she yelled, the other mare, Bon Bon, facehoofed. "Lyra, calm down, he's been here for a few weeks now." Bon Bon said, trying to calm down the hyperventilating mare. "But you said they were myths and old pony's tales!" she yelled again. "Lyra, please calm down." Bon Bon said again, but Lyra wouldn't stop. Bon Bon brought her hooves to Lyra's temples and shook furiously. "Lyra, for the last time, calm down!" Bon Bon yelled in her face, Lyra sighed and calmed down her nerves. "Sorry, Bonnie, it's just, meeting a human is..." she trailed, Lyra hopped off the bench and approached Nikolai, who was staring at her coldly, like a heartless serial killer. Lyra couldn't help but stiffle a nervous chuckle. "Hi there, I'm Lyra, nice to meet you." she extended a hoof and smiled, Nikolai took and shook it firmly. "I'm Nikolai, but you can call me Nick." he said and released Lyra's hoof. Lyra giggled, "Can I call you Nicky?"
'What's with their cute little nicknames?'
'I don't know, Will.'
'Remember back at military school when the Sarge named you Ass Hunter?'
'Yeah, good old times, still miss them though.'
'Who?'
'Allen, Ivan, Contre, Montes, oh those guys were some company.'
'Eeyup.'
"Whatever you wish, Lyra." Nikolai said, "Well, we gotta go, see you around!" Nikolai waved them goodbye and continued walking down the dirt path, after a few minutes of walking the path began to turn into cobblestone, indicatig that they were nearing Ponyville.
'Why is this taking so long?'
'I have no idea, Will.'
"So, Nicky, you planning something for the future?" White Bolt began. "What do you mean?" Nikolai asked, "Like, what are you gonna do in the coming time." White Bolt explained. "I dunno, maybe join the Equestrian military?"
'Yeeeah, good idea, the best I've heard.'
'Mhm.'
"Why would you do that?" asked White Bolt, not breaking his gaze from the path. "I don't know, I still haven't settled in for my own house, the first one was burnt down." Nikolai said, "How did that happen?" White Bolt was now looking at Nikolai, there was a slight pause, an awkward one. "I did it myself, by accident, a pony startled me." Nikolai replied, "How?", "Like this."
Nikolai focused his mind, soon a nearby apple tree was endulved in green flames, White Bolt stopped in his tracks. "Whoa! How did you do that!?" White Bolt's eyes widened in excitment. "Magic." Nikolai snorted twice. "Princess Celestia herself gifted me these powers, and I'm lucky to have them." he snorted.
They continued to walk, leaving the burning apple tree alone, a very angry orange mare approached the tree. "What in tarnation!? Ah'll git mah hooves on the lil' bugger tha' did this!" Applejack was very, very irritated.
Nikolai and White Bolt were approaching Ponyville, a few buldings could be already seen. After a few seconds of walking and trotting, the library was in a line of sight. The human and the pony approached it's entrance, Nikolai slid the key in and twisted, a satisfictional 'click' was heard and Nikolai pushed open the door, with a wooden creak the door fully opened, revealing a bliss of darkness. The two species entered, closing the door behind them. "Where's da switch?" Nikolai began feeling the wall for the lightswitch. Before he continued on, the lights flicked on, shouting and screaming could be heard, party ballons and other decorations swarmed the library walls. A banner saying 'Welcome to Ponyville' unrolled out of nowhere, a pink pony popped up from behind the couch yelling,
"SURPRISE!"
Everypony in the room seemed so...happy.
"Welcome to your first party Nicky!" yelled the pink pony as she tightly hugged Nikolai, blocking every airway for oxygen. "Pinkie...need...air..." he gasped as she loosened her grip and fell on the wooden floor on her fours, she smiled nervously, but a big grin followed after that. "Do you like huh hah huh?! I made the decorations and stuff! The Cakes helped me bake the sweets! Do ya, do ya!?" she jumped and and stayed in the air, her muzzle touching Nikolai's nose, Pinkie was defying gravity, again. But she's Pinkie Pie, she couldn't care less about physical laws, or any laws at all. I tried to be like Pinkie Pie, care free, law free, but then I took an arrow in the knee. "Yeah...it's awesome, Pinkie." Nikolai said with a happy smirk. "Then lets partaaay!" she yelled, and bounced off into the crowd.
'Welp, she's mad.'
'Eeayup, and fluffy too.'
'And soft.'
'Too soft, she's like a pillow with muscles.'
'Agree.'
A/N : I'm running out of ides for the next chapters, also I want to get my stars back up, so please, rate if you haven't already, and comment that is. Thanks for your support guys, especially 'Crown8', he/she definetly helped me drive away from that bestiality thing, thanks ya'll.
The library door swung open, a very drunk Nikolai came out into the night with a bottle of Cossacks vodka in his hand, he was swaying from side to side, singing an unintelligable russian song, he went through the dead silent town. After minutes of drunk walking and singing, he sat in front of an abandoned, boarded up house, still sipping from his bottle. As soon as the bottle was completely wasted, he threw it away, it impacted on the ground, sending pieces of glass in different directions, this including cutting Nikolai's cheek, fresh blood began to pour out.
"Fuck..." he cursed and slammed his palm against the bleeding cheek, stopping the bleeding. "Anypony...got a tissue?" he asked particulary no one. Nikolai heard a giggle, he stood up and looked inside the boarded up house, the only thing he could see through the planks of wood was an old cruicible. He snorted and sat back down, still holding his cheek. Nikolai began to feel tired, he rested his head on the cold stone wall, his eyelids began dropping. He heard the same giggle again, he raised his head and looked through out the darkness that was around him. "Who is...there?" he asked, but no reply came. He rested his head back on the wall. Soon he began to feel the tiredness overpower him, his eyelids dropped and dozed off, snoring in the procces.
__
Nikolai awoke from his unsuspected nap, his eyes slowly began to stirr open, upon half way, he saw a hoodied muzzle, but there was something on that muzzle, a smile, with it's front teeth stuck out. Nikolai recognized it as a mare by the shape. "Wake up sleepy head." the hoodied mare whispered. But, her stance seemed to be different, Nikolai saw that her front hooves were rested on her hind legs, she was standing like a human. A long robe trailed down her body. Nikolai rubbed his left eye, it was watery. "Are you even paying attention?" the mare tapped his head with a hoof, like a door knock. Nikolai shook his head afterwards. 'Is this guy drunk or something?' the mare thought and looked over the broken bottle, 'Yep.' "Come on, you'll catch a cold from sitting on bare stone." she said, placing a hoof on his shoulder. Nikolai yawned and stood up, strange, the mare seemed to be his height, only a bit smaller, a few inches or so. And her hind legs stance seemed to be perfectly natural, as if she was born with it. Like a human. Nikolai looked at her legs, they were hooves, so she's a pony. "Hey, I'm Ipsywitch, nice to meet ya." she extended a friendly hoof. Nikolai simply stared at her hoodied muzzle. "How do you...stand like that, ponies can't do that..." he said, still a bit shaken up from the party booze. He took her hoof in his hand and firmly shook it. "Well, some ponies can't and some ponies like me, can." she said and slid her hoof away. "What's your name?" she asked, Nikolai blinked, "Nikolai, nice to *hic* meet ya too." he replied drunkly. Ipsy snorted, "You're still drunk from that, come on, get in." she approached the abandoned house's door and turned the knob. Nikolai simply stood there, "Come on, somepony will snatch you and use you in their baking experiments." Ipsy gestured for him to come inside. Nikolai burped and proceeded, Ipsy couldn't help but stiffle a chuckle. As soon as Nikolai was inside she closed the door and turned the key in the keylock, she then bolted it shut. Nikolai couldn't care less about why she was locking the door that way in his drunken state. He took in his surroundigs, different dark furniture with weird ritual marks flowed through the room. A bed with a skull ingraving stood in the middle of the room, he saw the cruicible next to a wooden table. "So you're a Necromancer?" he asked, she held her head up. "Huh? Wha? I'm not a Necromancer, why does everypony suggests that?" she crossed her hooves between her chest, very irritated. "Sorry, that robe and this furniture, kinda makes you look like one." he rubbed the back of his neck, Ipsy uncrossed her hooves, using her left one she slid off the hoodie, revealing her dark violet mane and brown, sparkly eyes, her coat colour was a very light blue. "Yar coat is nice." Nikolai complimented. Ipsy shrugged, "Thanks, I get told that a bunch if times." she walked over a table with a bottle, and two glasses, both with four ice cubes in them. Ipsy took the bottle, with her hoof, and pured the orange liquid into the glass, filling it up halfway. She brought the glass to her lips and gulped down the liquid. "Want?" she asked, turning around. Nikolai waved his hands in disagreement.
For the first time Nikolai noticed that the room was quite dark, "Hey, where are the lights, I can't see shit right here." he said, Ipsy sighed. "Hey, Miss Scootaloo, can you check the fuses down in the basement please?" Ipsy yelled out, soon an orange mare with a black sweater with a cable to her ear, those things that the FBI uses. She was standing the same way Ipsy was, which was quite strange, strange and odd indeed. "Sure thing." Scootaloo walked off into another room. "How do you ponies do that?" Nikolai burped, "Do what?" Ipsy asked, completely ignoring Nikolai's manners because they were amusing. "That, walking on your hind legs thing, I thought you walked on all fours." he raised an eyebrow, Ipsy chuckled and dropped down on her fours, "See, its comfortable running-erm, galooping like this, but I prefer to spend my time on my hinds." she lifted herself, standing on her hind legs again. Ipsy unbuttoned her robe, revealing her light blue chest, thank god ponies had different anatomy than humans. "What pony are you?" Nikolai asked, Ipsy tilted her head in confusion, "What?" she said, "Are you a pegasus, or a unicorn, earth pon..." he hiccupped, once again Ipsy chuckled, "I'm an earth pony." she informed. "So, what's your special talent?" Nikolai asked, Ipsy placed a hoof on the table and leaned, "I can do lots of stuff, but my Daddy told me not to spread it around, becuse ponies might get creeped out or mad at me." her eyes wandered off into the ceiling, the light bulb that was hanging by a wire came to life, "Ah, power is back." Ipsy said with a satisfied smile.
'Since when did ponies use electricity?'
'Uhm, since now?'
'She's fishy, keep an eye out for her.'
'Relax, Will, I think she's perfectly harmless.'
'Explain that weird smile on her face!'
'Jesus, Will.'
A/N : The world is changing, time is different. Things will come.
"Hey, you got a glass of water? My throat is kinda dry." Nikolai said, clearing his dry throat. Ipsy nodded. "Sure, just go through there, there's cups on the shelf." she pointed to a wooden door at the end of the room. "Thanks." Nikolai said and proceeded towards the wooden door. The door didn't have a handle so he pushed it open, it creaked open effortlessly. It was a simple kitchen with a stove and a counter, a couple of cupboards hung on the wall, next to the sink was a shelf full of different types of cups and glasses. He took a transperent one and filled it with water, he brought the glass to his lips and took in the refreshing liquid.
'Since when have you drank any water, Nick?'
'Uhm...since I came to Equestria?'
'Mhm.'
'Wow, I haven't eaten anything either.'
'Dayumn, you've got a strong system man.'
'Like you didn't know Will.'
Nikolai set down the glass and made his way out of the kitchen.
'Bitch, go back to da kitchen!'
'Shut up, Will, it's not funny anymore.'
'Whahuh?'
Nikolai mentally sighed, he was in the living room again, Scootaloo and Ipsy were having some sort of conversation. Nikolai didn't pick up any of their words because he was too tired, his muscles ached and his eyelids already began resisting. "Hey, Ipsy, I'm really tired and wanna go to sleep, I'll see you in the morning for a coffee or somethin'?" Nikolai said, rubbing his eyes to show how tired he was. Ipsy smiled. "Sure thing, Nicky, see you in the morning." he waved him goodbye, Nikolai retured the gesture and stepped outside. It was preety dark.
Nikolai began walking through the dead silent town for minutes, but the library wasn't within eye reach. He saw a violet taik round the corner of a grey house, Nikolai's curiosity overpowered his need fir slumber, so he followed the tail, as soon as he rounded the corner a relaxing scent reached the human's nose. As Nikolai turned his head, his nose made contact with a pony muzzle, a pair of green eyes stared back at him. Nikolai retracted and took a step back from the stranger, he observed her. It was a pony, standing on her hind legs, but her front hooves, were fingers, elegant and long. Also he noticed a little big detail on her chest. She had a very big uh...talent. Alright, she has massive boobs. The mare, or whatever was wearing a light red shirt that exposed her waist, and a pair of black jeans. Her violet mane and tail flowed in the night air. "Hi there sweetie." she said in a soft voice, almost seducive. "Name's Double Entendre. But you, sweetheart, can call me E." she smiled.
'Is this what happens when a pony and a human have a child? Check if she has fur.'
Nikolai checked her hands, they indeed contained well kept, clean fur. "Double Entendre, I take it as your size." Nikolai winked, E's cheeks turned into a light shade of pink. "Oohh~, you sure are impressive at first." she stuck out the tip of her tongue in the corner of her mouth.
'You're making a move on her!'
'I was saying something nice!'
'Hurghuhah.'
'What?'
'Nutin'.'
"I didn't think ponies wore clothes, now did they?" Nikolai said with a sly smirk and a raised eyebrow. "I'm different than other ponies dear...sorry I haven't got your name." she said. "Oh how rude of me, I'm Nikolai, but you, miss E, can call me Nicky." he said, making a small bow with his head.
"E!" a feminine voice called out, from a corner turned up Rarity, but different, she had multiple facial scars, and a heart ingraving, litelary it was INgraved into her chest, like a tatoo, also on her left flank there were bloody teeth marks.
'Dayumn.'
"Oh Nicky! Oh I see you two already aqueinted eachother, how nice." Rarity said, stepping closer towards them. "Now that stabby Pinkamena, she gave us the scare, are you alright E?" Rarity asked, looking towards her friend. "More than ever." E replied.
"R-Rarity...what happened to you, the cuts the burns the bites?" Nikolai began, Rarity deek seek injured, but there was no sign of pain in her expression. "The cuts? Opal was a bit, hostile towards me, and assaulted me, I got mad and...nevermind. The heart ingraving? It was my piece of work, outstanding isn't it? Still stings a little. The bite marks? Rainbow Dash has been a nauhgty pony and bit my flank, after that I 'punished' her in my own way."
Nikolai's jaw hung open, he stared in awe.
'Hot...damn, man.'
'Holy buttfuck!'
"Now you both look 'very' tired, how about spending the night at my boutique?" "Super idea!" E replied immidiatly, E and Rarity looked towards Nikolai, they couldn't hold a giggle. "Come on, Nicky.' E took him by the hand and proceeded to walk. Nikolai obeyed and walked with the mares.
'You just got offered a threesome!"
'No, Will! It's just a...sleep over, I guess.'
'Yeah, three adults, a BIG sleepover eh? Kinky.'
'Damn it Will! You make everything sound sexual!"
'I'm a comedian, and a sexual driven awesome guy! Shades!'
'You never change.'
'The more things change the more they stay the sam...Nick?'
'What, Will?'
'Remeber the internet?'
'Yes?'
'Tumblr?'
'...'
'Nick?'
'Holy, Jesus green shit.'
'What?'
'Those Tumblr blogs, Lil' Miss Rarity, Double-E. Pinkamena.'
'You've just now entered...A WORLD OF SHIT!'
'HOLY DOG SHIT!'
'Wait what? You're saying that those characters, and Pinkie Pie is...'
'A bloody, rampaging, giggling killer.'
'And Lil' Miss Rarity, a pain pleasured sex freak.'
'Mhm.'
'Sooo...'
'WAHT A TWIST!'
'It twisted your brain into a slush filled goo bowl.'
Nikolai looked over E, she was still holding his hand. Smiling.
Rarity led Nikolai and Double-E inside the boutique, the first thing Nikolai noticed was the grim pink glow. It radiated some kind of fear that penetrates your clothes and skin, then seeps down deep in your bones, making your spinal structure shiver as if you dipped yourself into an ice cold ocean. But all those feelings were washed away by E's touch. Her warm white fur against Nikolai's skin relaxed his muscles, soon he felt cold drops of his own sweat run down his forehead. His heart rate began to accelarate. "Are you okay, Nicky?" asked a very concerned Entendre, she looked him straight in the eyes. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine...I think." he let out an exhausted sigh.
'Dude, radiator six o'clock.'
Nikolai turned around his head and looked over the hearlt emmitor, he cursed mentally and stepped away, soon he felt his body temperature decrease and his heart continuing it's normal pumping rate.
'Oh lordy, you are so stupid around girls.'
'But she's a pony.'
'Half pony you freakin' jackass! Where do you think she got those fingers from?'
'Erm, right.'
'So that means she's fuckable!'
'What?!'
'Just kiddin'. Lol.'
"Nicky, how about you sit down, you look like you've seen a ghost." E suggested, "Sure, yeah, that couch looks comfy." Nikolai said, making his way over a red couch with cushions at it's ends, he sat down and threw his head back. Nikolai was 'very' tired. "Nicky, would you like something to wet your whistle dear?" Rarity asked, holding a bottle of simple whiskey. "Yeah, I can do with a shot." he replied, Rarity filled a shot glass with the liquid and hoofed it to Nikolai. He gradually took it and dipped it down, leaving an empty shot glass. "More?" Rarity asked, ready with the bottle. Nikolai nodded in agreement and took another shot, then another. Soon after three more shots he couldn't drink anymore. He threw his head back on the couch, vision getting blurry by every second. The last thing he saw was the upside down face of Double-E, grinning softly, eyes half closed. Then he dozed off.
__
He awoke from the sore feeling on his buttcheeks. Nikolai was laying on cold stone, his eyes began to stirr open, his eyes fully shot up. He was on a stone boat, yes a stone boat floating in a sea of diamonds. "Dream..." he said to himself and pinched his own skin. It worked.
__
He awoke at the soft feeling on his buttcheeks, he was still on the couch, random dreams occur every now and then, but a stone boat? Bad idea. Should just probably drown yourself while you're at it. Nikolai's eyes slowly began to open, he was greeted by Rarity's face, her muzzle directly pointed at his nose. "Wow, you are a sight to see when sleeping." she said. "What?" Nikolai began to stand up, "What time is it?" he looked around for a clock, and found a digital one on a stand, it displayed - 5 : 32 -, "Bleurhu, how long have I been asleep?" he asked, rubbing his right eye. "About seven hours, that whiskey sure did hit the spot." Rarity giggled. "Welp, I better go back to the library, Twilight might need some help with 'book stacking'." Nikolai informed. At the name 'Twilight', Rarity hissed, along with E who was laying on a different couch, eating popcorn and watching television. "I think that Twilight is a bit...uhn...paranoid." Rarity said, giving E a worried look. "I'm sure she's fine." Nikolai said calmly.
__
Now he was standing in front of the library door, a small yellow hazardous sing saying 'PROCEED AT YOUR OWN SANITY' with red letters. "This was unexpected." Nikolai commented. He placed his hand on the smooth wooden texture and pushed. The door opened with a creak, revealing a lavender unicorn sorting out books. It seemed normal. "Uhm, hey Twilight." Nikolai greeted her, she kept quiet until. "Oh look its the hero who saved ponykind and betrayed his own species!" her eyes went into different directions as her mane became a dissheveled mess. "Run! While you can!" her horn glowed a very violent purole colour. Nikolai pressed his lips together and his eyes went into their opposite directions. "Me gusta." After that he ran like hell back to the boutique.
__
Nikolai stood in the boutique doorway, panting and sweating from exhaustion. He looked at Rarity and E, their faces saying 'Told ya so.'. "Remind me, never to go to the...library again." he said through heavy breaths and gasps. 'But where can I stay?' he thought to himself, as if Rarity was reading his mind she answered his thoughts. "Since Twilight is a psycho, and you lived at the library, but she's batshit crazy now, you can stay with us, at the boutique." Rarity said, looking over to E who nodded in agreement, taking a handful of popcorn into her mouth. "Aaww, thanks guys." he smiled, they smiled back. "Nicky, could you he a dear and take down a brown box from my room upstairs, please?" Rarity requested, "Of course." he began walking towards the staircase. Rarity trotted over to E and sat on the couch next to her. "He's quite the gentleman, isn't he?" Rarity shifted, making herself comfortable. "Yes indeedy." E replied, Rarity sighed in thought.
Nikolai opened the bedroom door, the first thing in sight was Sweetie Bell quietly sleeping on the red sheeted bed. But she had something, Nikolai peeked at her chest, there was a stiched up across it.
'Damn, they always hurt the fillies.'
'Who cut her?'
'Mah cupcake! Don't touch it or imma rip yer damn head off yer bloody shoulders!'
'Will, stop this randomness, please.'
'But I'm booored!'
'Me too.'
Nikolai quietly picked up the brown box from the nearby table and descended downstairs.
A/N : Would it be bestiality if Double-E gave Nikolai a...you know. The job at hand? Please comment about it, I don't wanna end up a bestiality freak or something. For those who don't get it, handjob, there, I said it.
That's it, I ran out of juice, I have no idea what to write next, seriously, I see that alot of you are interested into this, me too but, I'm setting this fic on hiatus until I come up with something. Now I'll be off playing Skyrim for a whole week. So don't expect any new chapters. PM me if 'you' readers would reccomend a few ideas. Over and out.
'Nothing has happened past this time, what is my purpose here? I feel like a useless piece of trash sitting indoors, doing nothing. Of all the things that could be going on up in Earth, for all I know they could be raging nuclear war. I can already taste the spilled blood of millions, the sheer amount of force brought down on one country. These ponies have no idea what war means. It is a land with no flaws. I realized that now. My time here has brought a fog over my mind, but now everything is clear. I understand. They have not tasted pure agony, or loss. The atmosphere here is so tense, radiation fills your lungs. Everyday is the same, wake up, eat, talk, sleep, this process repeats itself over and over. I have been blind for so many months, I was already accepting my life. But war finds it's way around. No one can escape it. Litelary, nothing can escape the fate of death. War is your bread and butter, without it, you are lost. With it, and if you win your battles the right way, it fills you with pride and glory. But what if one betrayes the other? Like I betrayed humanity? My own kind, my homeland, my family. It is because of the sheer fog that has blinded my mind. But that fog in me is gone. Alex Degtyrev, the man who tried to save his own species. Was betrayed, by me, now it feeks like I've shot my own father with his own pistol. But I know that he is dead now, because of my choices, humanity wants it revenge. Double-E is a prime example, the legs of a pony, the arms of a human. Hybrid, an assassin. Sent to murder me for my actions. She now lays dead on the floor, covered in flames. Humans are in Equestria, I do not need facts to proove this, I just know they are, they are after me. I did not expect this. The events were twisted like Rarity's neck. It crunches under pressure. I did not know this would happen. But I have to fight for my own skin. Right now I'm in the boutique, two dead bodies lay before, their eyes still wide open, staring at my inner soul in horror. You always hurt the ones close to you. Will, my so called friend, was a figment of my imagination, just an addition to the fog that kept me blind this entire time. He is now gone, dead along with the fog. I do miss his humour, that I will never hear again. His laughing voice. His own personality, he was like family. But there is a time when you have to accept the inivitability of death. Death, common accurance by my point of view.
This, is how real life goes. It is worse than the Zone, all those that I know are dead or away. Betrayed. Forgotten. Abandoned. In this world, we are all enemies. I write this in memory. If I die, someone will understand, Equestria rages war with humanity. Soldiers with guns versus flying ponies. The Princesses are long dead. Killed by my own kind. Ponyville is under the control of us. I however, do not participate in their little game. I fend for myself, I create the rules, I play my own game. I know you understand. Half of the land is burned or under slavery, I never thought this would happen through out the happy ponies. But you can never avoid that. This world is ruined, the universe is a crumbling rock. God is dead, if there was one. I highly doubt that. The world is in an unending dark void. Every man and pony for himself. No exceptions. Not even one. Not the tiniest bit. It starts, this is like the Thrid World War. Only ten times worse. I bid you farewell. That this is the last day we meet.'
Nikolai sighed and closed the diary book.
"This is it...I go."
A/N : The end, I'm ending this. I was writing while listening to the Battlefield 3 OST - Solomon's Theme. It really helped me with this chapter. Another fic in the mere thousands is complete. For those confused.
So uh...it's been a long time...I guess, so...I've played Stalker again, and got the feeling of continuing this story...I guess. I mean, if you watchers, viewers, readers whatever want it, I would be glad to contiune it. I guess. Kinda.
Author's note: Okay, I realized that this story has gone down, in a way, some of you said I ruined the 'concept' of it, like I turned the wrong way, well, this is my second chance of improving it, sort of.
Nikolai, the so said overpowered human being, was walking along a dirt path, leading out of Ponyville, and into the Everfree Forest. He was wearing his patched up Rookie jacket, his black trousers, and the trainers from before arriving in Equestria.
He had no idea, what happened, it was all so confusing. He never thought that there is pony and human hybrid beings, or anything about Twilight's sanity, or the fact that someone or something has set a price on his head.
Never the less, he continued walking slowly, in the dark, without any kind of light source. Yet he regret that he incinerated Rarity in her own home, along with the pony, human hybrid, E.
Nikolai needed to clear his mind, he wanted a fresh start, in the Zone, not in Equestria, he wanted to find his fortune by searching for rare artifacts, but that anomaly took hold of fate.
Nikolai thrust his hand into his left pocket, searching for the notes he wrote before. He held the three pieces of white paper in front of him, and lit them on fire, they burned with a green glow, that illuminated a part of his hand. After seconds of burning, the three notes were completely gone. Nikolai sighed and brushed his hair with his hand that just incinerated the notes.
The young Stalker continued walking along the dirt path. Nikolai reached behind his back and brought his backpack in front, he took the zipper and pulled it, the bag's top opened, revealing the items inside, a dusty, old Kalashnikov, one bottle half filled with vodka, a basic first aid med-kit, one loaf of fresh bread and Nikolai's father's pistol.
He closed the backpack and slung it over his bag, he adjusted his hood so his face cannot be seen by any incomers.
Nikolai continued walking along the dirt path until he heard something from shuffling from behind him, he turned his head, and saw nothing, he raised an eyebrow and continued walking forwards.
__
Nikolai came to a clearing, just a few trees here and there. He scanned the area for any possible threats, or ponies, after he confirmed that there was no pony and no one there, he continued walking.
As soon as he reached the center of the clearing, he heard the faint sound of breathing, not regular breathing, but breathing through a respirator. Nikolai's first thought was some kind of animal, but then, out of a large rose bush, three figures rose up, Nikolai's body went limp, cold sweat began pouring down his neck and forehead, his eyes couldn't stop staring at the three figures, Nikolai's lip trembled.
"Shit..."
He broke into a sprint back to the direction he just came from, the three dark figures disappeared from the bush in the blink of an eye.
Nikolai sprinted down the path, it wasn't long till he reached the outskirts of Ponyville, where a few lights in pony's home's still burned. Nikolai was making quite the noise, his heavy footsteps on the cobblestone echoed throughout the town, his heavy breathing bounced off walls. A few ponies began to exit their homes, trying to see what's all the commotion.
A green mare was in Nikolai's way, he tried jumping past her, but ending up getting his right foot caught by the mare's side, both the human and pony fell, Nikolai ended up face planting on a patch of grass, the green mare fell to her side, wincing in pain.
The crowd of gathering colts and mares gasped in union, two mares and a stallion ran over to the green mare's side and helped her up, asking if she was okay, but only a white stallion approached the human. It was White Bolt, he lifted up Nikolai and set him on his back, with a little bit of effort, he made a slow trot away from the still gathering crowd.
"Don't worry buddy...I'll get you to safety." White Bolt smiled and continued his slow trot.

Author's note 2: Yeah, pretty decent, I think, just a little warm up for the upcoming ideas, don't worry, I'll fix this story up and it will be running again. IF something doesn't happen, though... >_>
