//------------------------------// // chapter 19: potted plants and a showmare (reader edited and all that jazzy stuff) // Story: super secret human facility // by xXmentracksXx //------------------------------// Me and Lyra continued to enjoy ourselves. I finished my chocolate muffin and was taking sips of Lyra's strawberry milk shake. Lyra was about finished with her slice of Orange Swirl cake, leaving the orange slice on her plate. I noticed the lonely orange slice resting on the plate, I placed the milkshake down and poked the orange slice with my finger. Lyra noticed my action. "Hehe what are you doing?" She questioned with a snicker. I looked at Lyra, still poking the orange. "This orange is SOOOO lonely...look at him, all lonely and unloved." Lyra laughed at my little discription of a lonely orange slice. "Your silly you know..heheh...but how can mister orange slice be less lonely?" Lyra questioned as she went along with me. I raised my finger in the air and poked her on the nose. "Let him live in your belly..." I moved my hand to her belly and rubbed it. "...that way: he can come home with us and ride the cutest pony here." I said as kissed Lyra on the nose. Lyra blushed and turned away from me. "Your silly and sweet, such a perfect combo." She said as she turned back to me and lightly licked my nose. I chuckled then smiled warmly. Lyra picked up the orange then slowly and purposely ate the orange in front of me. Now I'm not the best at knowing whats 'hot' and whats 'not', but Lyra eating a orange slice slowly and making sexual moans....thats pretty fucking hot. I was trying to hide the ever mounting towner being constructed in my pants and trying to remain calm in the face of a mare being frisky. After the orange was gone, she thought it would be a good idea to slowly lick the sticky orange juices from her hoove. Oh non-existent god, please help me with this sexualy ready mare. When the last of the juices were gone, she looked at me with a sly smile and half lided eyes. "Soooo...ready to go?" She asked with a sultry tone. I nodded, trying to retain a outward apperance of coolness and calm. "Of course, just let me thank Pinkie for the sweets." I said. Lyra nodded and hopped off the chair. "Well, I'll be waiting outside. Don't keep me waiting." She said with a mock stern voice. I chuckled then nodded. "Ok, I wont be long." And with that, Lyra proceeded to walk out the front door. I turned my attention to the counter and walked over to it. I placed my hands on the counter and leaned over the counter. I cleared my throat before calling for her. "Pinkie!" "YES?" I was instantly face to face with the pink party pony. I recoiled in surprise but quickly regained my composer. "Well Pinkie, we are heading out but I wanted to thank you for the sweets. They were really good." Pinkie blushed and giggled. "Well thank YOU for the complement of my sweets..." I smiled and was about to say something, but was cut off by Pinkie clearing her throat. "...Can I ask you something Alex?..." I looked at Pinkie questionally and nooded. "Sure Pinkie, whats up?" Pinkie seemed alittle nervouse and seemed to have a hard time thinking of what to say. "Well....would you want to, I mean if you don't mind me asking, but...How would you like to..." Before Pinkie could ask her question, two thing happened simultaneously. One: I heard a loud crash and the sound of something flying through the air and two: I felt something hard hit me in the back of my head, the impact wasn't enough to knock me out but it hurt like a fucking bastard. "OWW..." -------------------------------------------- The perception of the Lyra Today has gone great. I thought as I walked to the front door of Sugarcube Corner. Bon Bon might be the head mare, but I got him walking stiff..hehehe. I thought as I made it outside, the sun seemed to be shining brighter then any other day. I let the door close behind me and sighed out in happiness. I moved to the left of the door, so others can come into the shop and I wont be blocking their way. I was looking down the right hoove side of the store, seeing ponies walking in the distance. "Well, well, welll..." My attention was ripped from the ponies by a familiar voice. I turned my head to face the voice and saw the owner of said voice. The owner was that show mare that was in Canterlot. I looked at her with a expression of confusion and underlying anger. "...It seems we meet again. Remember me?" She said as she steped forward. "Yeah...your that tramp showmare that tried to hit on my hubby." The mare contorted her face in anger at my words. "I see that you havent changed a single thing since we meet...still delusional about my future husband." I felt my temper rise higher as the showmare continued to stare at me with that smug-bucking face of hers. After a moment of intense staring, I decided to break the silence. "So...what are you doing in Ponyville? Last I remember, I sent you through a window..." "...along with my husband..." " HEY!! That was an accident! anyway, you here to try and fail at swooning Alex?" I questioned. The showmare raised an eyebrow then make a face that resembled one of recognition. "Oh thats his name, well thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't able to get his name the last time we met, since you had to interupt..." "You forced your bucking self on him! I doubt he would want to know somepony like YOU anyway." The showmare recoiled abit at my statement. "And why do you say such a thing?" She questioned. "From the time I spent with him: he's a nice, sweet and caring human. I can tell that he's been hurt before and I don't believe that you can give him the love that me and Bon Bon can." I stated as I knew I spoke the truth. The showare looked angery and seemed to be holding back some serious words. "How DARE you imply that me: The Great and Powerful Trixie, can't be a loving marefriend. That is such a LIE and I will prove you wrong. Since this 'Bon Bon' seems to be the Headmare in his relationship, I shall speak to her about this matter." I was alittle surprised at her response. "Wait...How did you know she was the Headmare? and what made you think that I wasn't the Headmare?" "Well first: you put the person who is most important first, like 'Bon Bon and I'. Second: come on, you dont expect me to believe that the mare that sent him through a window would be the Headmare now do you." "Hey it could have happened...If Bon Bon didnt get to him and ask him first." "Enought of this. I have to find this 'Bon Bon' and inquire about being with him too. But before I do...I need to make sure that you wont interfere." Before I could respond, I saw her horn glow a slight blue light and saw a potted plant fly at me. I reacted quickly and dodged the plant, it had enough momentum to go through the doors window and into the bakery. Before me or the showmare could start our brawl, we heard a noise come from inside the bakery. "OWW..." ---------------------------------------------- Back to Alex's perspective Two more things happened that moment. One: a pain shot through the back of my head sending my head forward and two: I felt a pair of soft lips connect with mine. I opened my eyes to see Pinkie Pie's eyes staring right back at mine, her eye's seemed to show a sense of shock as our lips stayed connected. My mind was racing as we stayed like this, lip locked, for a good moment. ------------------------------------------------ Pinkies mind This...is....HAPPENING! Oh...I'm...feeling....Pinkie thought as she experienced the same lip lock as Alex. Wow Pinke, keep calm...Her inner thought said to her. I'm....I'm.....The real Pinkie's lips detached from Alex's as she fell appon the floor....And she's out, great... ---------------------------------------------------- Back in reality I watched as Pinkie fell from me and onto the hardwood floor, I leaned over the counter to see if she was alright. She seemed to be breathing heavy as she looked at me from the floor, I felt bad as I felt it was my fault. "Oh Pinkie, I…I am sorry…I…" I started to say. "Its…ok…it wasn't you'r fault…it…was…" Another crash could be heard as a piece of glass fell from the broken window. I looked back to see the glass on the floor. "Oh I...better see what is going on, I'll...see you later Pinkie" "bye.." As soon as Alex is out she just pass out I removed myself from the counter and proceeded to walk to the door. I reached the door and looked through the hole in the glass, I saw Lyra looking at me and another mare that looked familiar.As soon as Alex is out she just pass out, yep she out. I looked back at Lyra, who seemed to be trying to tell me something through eye movements and weird facial expressions. I was going to ask her about her face when the blue mare spoke up. "Hello there..." She trotted over next to me. "...I hope you haven't forgotten about me." She said as she leaned into me with her flank. I tried to think back to the time I supposebly meet the mare, my mind racing back to the last 4-5 days that i've been in Equestria. From the white room, the castle and the trainstation, it all was fairly fussy by the fact that I was knocked out twice since coming here. I could remember a mare that matched her color of fur, but couldn't place a name to match it. "Hmmm...ya, you'r that showmare we saw at Canterlot right? Doing the magic tricks?" I questioned, she beamed a smile to confirm my answer. "Why yes, I'm glad you remember me. Now why don't we go..." "Alex..." Lyra said through clinched teeth. "..Can I talk to you for a moment?" She said as she gestured with her hoove to come to her. "Excuse me for a moment." The showmare nodded with a smile. I walked over to Lyra who motioned for me to lower my head to her. I lowered my head and she started talking in a hushed tone. "Why are you talking to HER?" She questioned. "I don't know what you'r talking about Lyra? I mean I remember meeting her at Canterlot, but it's a blur at what happened after...Did something happen that I should be aware of?" I questioned. Lyra looked a little nervous as she took her time with her answer. She sighed and answered. "Listen...back in Canterlot...I sorta..." "Lyra, Alex, what are you doing?" We both looked up to see Bon Bon, carrying groceries at her sides. We both smiled. "Hi Bon Bon!" We both said as Bon Bon gave us a confused look. "Hi...so what's going on here?" Bon Bon asked as she walked over to us. "Well...you see Bon Bon...hehe..." Lyra stuttered. "GREETINGS, you must be Bon Bon. I am the Great and Powerful Trixie!!! and I am here to inquire about joining you'r herd." The showmare( aka Trixie) proclaimed over both me and Lyra. "What?" Bon Bon questioned as she looked to me. I shruged as Trixie walked over and stood beside me. "I really don't know Bon Bon...but I'm ready to head home. What about you Lyra?" Lyra nodded and looked to Bon Bon, who seemed ready to. "I guess we better get going...Trixie, was it?. would you like to come along to talk about you joining?" Bon Bon questioned Trixie, who looked excited at the offer. "Why yes, that would be nice. Shall we?" and with that all four of us started walking home, with Bon Bon to the left of me, Lyra and Bon Bon to the right of me. -------------------------------------------------- A little dialogue between Lyra and Trixie "Listen here show-hoe, this can go south for you really quick. So behave and don't be a bucking brat about this." Lyra whispered to Trixie. "I wouldn't be so sure about this going bad for ME...remember this miss thang, I know what you did to him and me. So if you don't want me telling him, then lets play nice for now and hope for the best." Trixie stated. "Were's all that 'cockyness' gone?" Lyra questioned. "This is the first time that I'm actually nervouse...so can you please stop talking and let me think about what will happen next." Trixie stated with a slight shake in her voice. "Alright fine fine..." With that, Lyra and Trixie stoped talking and continued to there destination.
