I awoke inside a cell. It would seem that I have been captured. I sat up and looked around. It was castle dungeon cell. My weapons have obviously been taken and I was alone. "This is the thanks I get for saving Fluttershy?" I thought as I got up and stretched. I walked up to the bars in the front of the cells and looked to my left and right. No guards. I noticed my stomach growling so I called out and asked for food even though i wasn't expecting any.
"Эй! Один из вас сук Я голоден! Получите мне чертовски еды!" There was the sound of an opening door and Twilight walked up to me. "You!" I shouted.
"I um..."
"This is the thanks I get for saving your friend from those bears!?"
"This just a precaution." She stated. "Now that you're awake, I would like to ask you some questions."
"You'll get nothing from me! You'll kill me before I talk!"
"K-kill you?! We don't... What!!??"
"I will tell you nothing!!"
"W-we just want to know how long you have been watching us!"
"And you lock me up for that!? Ты должен быть чертовски издеваешься надо мной! If I wanted to harm you I would have back at the cave!"
"Like I said this is just a precaution. Can't you co-operate?"
"I will tell you nothing! Убирайся прочь от меня! Я буду говорить только в Fluttershy!"
"Why can't you just-"
"Нет! Go away."
"Ugh is there anyway you will tell us?"
I thought for a moment. "да I already told you. Bring me the yellow one."
"When did you?" She shook her head. "Nevermind, so you will only speak to her huh?" I nodded my head, she sighed. "Fine but don't expect her to even ask any questions."
"Is okay, bring her if you want to know." She shook her head and walked out and my stomach growled again. "Hey and bring me some food!"
She walked back in. "Only if I can come in with her."
"Ugh fine! Just don't talk!"
"Deal." She walked out again and after a few moments I started looking for an escape route. I was unsuccessful. I sat by the small window and waited. After a few minutes Twilight and Fluttershy walked in. Fluttershy looked scared or nervous or both. Probably due to actually seeing me.
"H-hello?"
"привет Fluttershy."
"I-is it okay if I ask you some q-questions?"
"Yes, as long as it is you asking them."
"O-okay...um..." She looked at Twilight, who smacked herself in the face and handed Fluttershy a piece of paper. "W-when did you begin following us?"
"Well I started by following you when you were just a child." She had a shocked look on her face. "Sorry to make you uncomfortable, but is honest answer." I shrugged.
"U-um...this isn't on the paper but um...when did you s-start watching m-me?"
"When you first fell from the sky." Her eyes widened in shock. "Yes was long time ago." I thought few a moment. "About four or five year ago." I waited for her to ask another question but she didn't. "I don't know if you remember the note at the cave entrance, but...that was me."
"Y-you wrote those direction to Ponyville down?" She asked with surprise in her voice.
"Yes. And I watched over you the night before as well. I protected you from any creatures that might harm you."
"W-why?"
"Because you reminded me of my daughter. She has love for animals, as you do. I-I haven't thought about home for a long time..."
Twilight, who has been writing all of this down, lifted her head up. "Is-is he crying?"
"I don't know." Said Fluttershy. "Are you okay?"
"да, yes I'm fine."
"So I reminded you of your daughter. And that's why you looked after me that night?"
"That is not the only reason. You were so small and looked so weak. You would have been easy pray for a wolf or any other predator. I couldn't just leave you."
"That-that was very kind of you."
"Next question?"
"Oh right sorry. Um...what are you?"
"I am what is called a human and before you ask I come from the planet Earth. It may or may not be in a different universe."
"How did you get here. I-if you don't mind answering."
"I do not know. I was in a convoy on a mission when we were ambushed. The last memory I have of being on my planet is being trapped in a burning vehicle."
"That sounds terrible!"
"It was. I was the only survivor."
"Oh my."
"Mission?" Twilight asked. "Were you in some kind of military?"
"Even though I told you not to speak, I will answer you. Yes I was part of the Russian Special Forces called Spetsnaz."
"When did you start following the rest of us?"
"The night Nightmare Moon tried to take over. And I stopped any creatures from getting in the way."
"Really?" Both mares asked.
"Yes. I killed probably a dozen....things while you six were galloping through the forest not paying any attention to your surroundings. I even saw the sea serpent."
"What about the manticore?" Fluttershy asked.
"If you mean the lion like thing then yes. I almost killed it but my weapon jammed."
"Why would you want k-k-kill it?"
"I didn't want it to harm you or your friends."
"D-did you um...you know...?"
I shook my head. "No I didn't. I told it that I was your friend on my way back to my home and it left me alone."
She sighed in relief. "Oh that's good. Oh! Twilight did you bring his food?"
"Oh yes, sorry." She laughed nervously and levitated a tray of food through the slot.
"Thank you." I looked at Fluttershy. "Now continuing from when you were a filly."
"Y-yes?"
"Do you remember that search party you were in?"
"Search party?" She thought for a minute. "Oh yes. Rainbow said she saw a strange creature and brought me along to communicate. That was you, wasn't it?"
"Yes."
"You're a very good hider." She chuckled.
"What can I say? It was part of my job." I smiled.
"So you were there when she got her cutie mark?" Twilight asked.
"Yes, I watched it appear. Though it confuses me as to why there are butterflies instead of an animal or something."
"I think it represents her talent perfectly."
"Well I don't think she had any control over it."
"No I didn't it just appeared like this." Fluttershy said meekly.
"I thought so." I said. "Are we done with the questions? Because I would like to be free."
"I think so." Twilight said. "But I think Celestia wants to see you before you're released."
"Celestia?"
"Our Princess."
"Hmm in my world you would be ruled be a queen instead. What does she want from me?"
"I'm...not sure actually. I'm sure it will be fine."
"She's very kind. You don't have anything to worry about."
"I hope your version of kind is better from what I have seen." They both raised an eyebrow. "Do not ask. I am ready for the Princess."
In truth I am not. All I want is to be released so that I may see if Zecora has returned.
