//------------------------------// // intermission 1 // Story: The Time Adventures // by Night Fire //------------------------------// Hey! This is going to be a filler chapter for Time Adventures, I am probably going to write these in between every adventure so that I can have some fun with this story. They’re going to be short stories that will tie together the plot. (Also, dinky will get older.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Fire was falling from the sky at over 10,000 feet… unconscious… again… Luna was running to save him… again. As Luna got there she used a spell that slowed him down till a gentle descent was what he was in. As she caught him Swift fly over and helped carry him back to the Tardis, Derpy, Dinky, and Doctor Whooves all watching worriedly. Once they set him down he let out a groan and opened his dragon pupil eyes. “Ugh, what happened this time?” Night Fire asked, shaking his head. “You passed out after lighting yourself on fire… again. You fell from over ten thousand feet, unconscious… again,” said Luna, looking at him. “What?! How often does he do stupid stuff like this?” Swift asked, quite worried for his alicorn friend. “Too often. I stopped trying to keep a record, and now I just do what I need to.” Night Fire said smirking as he ducked under Luna’s blow. “So, you’re a dumbass in other words?” Swift asked looking at him. “Eeeyup. So where did the others go?” Night Fire asked looking around and not seeing anyone else. “Derpy is making lunch, The Doctor is helping her, and Dinky and Chrome went to his room, I believe.” Luna said right before Chrome came up behind her. “That would be correct, Luna.” Chrome said walking by her on his way to the kitchen. “Well if it isn’t Mr. Mysterious. What do I have to do to see those eyes?” Night Fire asked ,staring at the black cloth strip covering them. “Become my enemy, try to kill me, and pose a possible threat to me and I might show you my eyes.” Chrome said walking by him, “Possibly.” “Chrome, why do you take Dinky to your room all the time?” Swift asked not knowing why. “Because she needs to learn more magic, plus she is learning how to play music.” Chrome said looking at Swift, “Nothing more, nothing less.” “Wow, don’t accuse me of thinking anything bad like that!” Swift said reaching for his weapon. Just as well, Chrome’s horn started to glow white when suddenly this bright flash appeared betwixt them, Dinky being in the center. “Chrome, what took you so long? I thought you were going to get us some food.” Dinky said looking at him, then looking at Swift who still had his weapon half out and then at the alicorns who were holding in laughter. Dinky sighed, “Why were you both about to get in a fight?” “Sorry kid, Swift is a bit hot tempered.” Night Fire said barely containing his laughter. “Next time, use your soothing spell before they try to kill each other.” Luna said smacking him. “Fine, I won’t let them shed too much blood.” Night said sighing, “Got to ruin some good old manly fun….” “Shut up, you’ve helped stop Tia and I before.” Luna said looking away. “Because you both tried to kill each other.” Night said in a deadpan voice. “Everyone! Lunch is ready!” Derpy called from the kitchen, making them all stop and head into the kitchen/dining room to get some sandwiches and soup. As they gathered around the table Doctor Whooves looked at all of them. “Hey, I have some news, before we find any other part of time that needs fixing we’re going to relax, then we are going to Derpy and Dinky’s present time and Derpy and I are going to get married.” Doctor Whooves said nonchalantly, holding a glass of cider to his soon-to-be wife. “Well congratulations man, that’s great!” Night Fire said standing and patting Doctor Whooves on the back. “Well Dinky, looks like you’ll have a daddy after all.” Luna said smiling at the young foal who giggled and hugged Doctor Whooves. “Yay! Now you can really be my daddy!” Dinky giggled laughing. “If anypony needs me, I’ll be in my room playing some music.” Chrome said getting up and walking back to his room. “Geez what’s his problem? Doesn’t want to be in a celebration, can’t show his eyes, anypony else find something wrong with that?” Swift asked watching him leave before shrugging and hugging Derpy and Dinky, quite happy to have a new cousin and a second cousin. Night Fire stood and started to walk off before Dinky called out to him. “Uncle Night Fire, where are you going? Do you not want to be with us?” Dinky asked confused. “No Dinky, I do, but I think Chrome should have some company.” Night Fire said with a big false smile. Dinky smiled back and listened to the adults talk about what they are all going to do for the wedding. Night Fire wasn’t really worried about Chrome, but he was worried about the threat he posed to Luna and Dinky if his blind fold came off. Derpy doesn’t make eye contact, The Doctor wouldn’t look in his eyes, and Swift wouldn’t be that clumsy, but there had to be something up with his eyes to have them hidden, and Night Fire was determined to find out. Night Fire reached his door and knocked on it and heard a “Come on in.” before walking in. He saw Chrome in his hammock, blindfold in place, holding a crimson electric bass playing some song he knew. “Why did you come here?” Chrome asked pausing in his playing to look up at Night Fire. “Well I can play the double bass, but I don’t have one, nor somepony else to play with. Know any other instruments other than the bass?” Night asked lying through his teeth about why he was there. He could play the bass, he was tall enough, he knew how, he wasn’t the best but he wasn’t the worst either. Chrome set down his bass and went over to a cello and set it up and motioned to a pure black bass over on the wall with a bow sheath, that had a bow with black strings on it. Night grabbed it, made sure it was tuned and he and Chrome started to play a smooth jazz piece for a while. Once they were done, they set the instruments back on the walls and looked at each other. “Well you are pretty good Night Fire,” Chrome said, “Now tell me the real reason why you are in here.” “I’m worried for Luna and Dinky’s safety with you losing your blindfold. I saw what you did to those unicorns back there. What is wrong with your eyes?” Night Fire asked glaring down at Chrome. “Kid, if I even tried to tell you, it would give you nightmares.” Chrome said standing and turning around. “Who are you to call me kid?” Night Fire asked getting mad. “That’s for me to know and you to never find out.” Chrome said not letting anything slip. Sadly this just pissed of Night Fire and mad him more determined to find out so he did the first thing that came to mind. He tackled Chrome. Chrome was expecting a series of things, just not full out physical attacks. It caught him by enough surprise that Night managed to get his blind fold off and flip him over. Chrome instantly shut his eyes, but Night Fire decided to be stubborn. He used magic to hold him down and then did the first thing that came to mind. He punched Chrome in the gut. This gave night fire the exact result he needed. Chrome’s eyes opened for just a second but that was all Night Fire needed, he froze his eye lids and looked him dead in the eyes. And directly after making eye contact fell to the ground screaming in terror at what was happening to him. “Ah, this isn’t good.” Chrome said right as somepony knocked on his door. “Chrome it’s Luna, is Night still in your room?” Luna asked. “Yes, and I need you to come in. We have a problem.” Chrome called through the door. Luna came in and saw Night Fire and the floor screaming with tears pouring out of his eyes. She instantly ran to his side. “Night Fire! Wake up! NIGHT FIRE!!!!!” Luna was screaming trying to get him up but he wouldn’t stop screaming and crying. He was too far gone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And that is the end of this chapter. Stuff like this will happen betwixt Chrome and Night quite often. Also Swift will eventually have some bigger roles. In the story. Bless your face. If you sneezed during this chapter bless you.
