//------------------------------// // Stream Time, Scream Time // Story: How Did This Happen? // by Cobolt Soundwave //------------------------------// I woke up the next morning with Dash in my arms, still held in my grasp. I looked around the room with my groggy and tired eyes, remembering what had transpired the night before, and I still couldn't believe that 'that', actually happened, that's not to say that I didn't like it, because I did. I'm glad that it all actually happened, No idea what brought on the whole "let's do it." thing last night, but right now...I couldn't care less. I stayed there for a few more minutes before my stomach let me know that it needed sustenance with a growl. I looked down to see if Dash was stirring, which she was not, and I attempted to move and get out of bed without waking her, which was easier said then done. Dash Grabbed my wrist just as I was about to leave the bed and I nearly freaked out because I wasn't looking behind me so I thought she woke up. I turned my head and let out a breath I didn't know I was holding when I saw that she was still asleep, just holding on to my arm was all. I managed to sneak a pillow into her grasp and she released me long enough to fall flat on my ass and knock into the nightstand, jostling everything. I looked up in time to see the lamp that was on it fall and head straight on a crash course for the floor, so I shot out my hand in time to catch it. I set it back down on the night stand and picked up my underwear from the floor and grabbed a pair of shorts from the drawer and left the room. I passed the other rooms and saw that one of the doors was slightly ajar, so I went over to close it, but when I did I saw that my friend Misty, who's room it was that I was closing, was half hanging off the bed and lightly snoring.I really had to hold my muzzle otherwise I would have laughed reeeeaaaalllly hard. I closed the door and basically sprint tip-hoofed down the hall and jumped off the top of the stairs and flapped my wings once to land softly at the bottom of the stairs, where I walked over to the couch and grabbed a pillow and promptly laughed into it. After I had my laugh my stomach reminded me why I woke up in the first place. I walked into the kitchen and made my way over to the refrigerator and looked around a bit for something to eat. I found a some peppers and onions and just stood there thinking until I remembered something. 'I have frozen potatoes.' I opened my freezer and took out both bags of frozen 'hashbrowns' and put the rest of the stuff on the counter. I took out a pan and put oil into it and started chopping up the peppers and onions and put them into the pan and turned the stove on. Now if you're smart, which I was not at the moment, you would have put a shirt on...like I said I was not smart, I was hungry. As I was cooking the veggies in the pan a piece of pepper made a big sizzle which made a few droplets of oil splash up and out of the pan...and right onto my chest. "Jävla! Chi kishou!" I wiped my chest to get the oil off, even though I know it wasn't gonna' do anything, still it felt better then just knowing the oil was still there. While I was doing this Dash had somehow gotten into the kitchen and I didn't notice. She sneaked up behind me and gave me a surprise hug. Of course I reacted in the appropriate way. "SLUTA!" I shouted and I tensed up, my wings tried to shoot open in reaction to my surprise, but were pinned to me from her hug. "Jeez, calm down Sound, it's just me." Dash said, trying to rest her muzzle in the crook of my neck. "Why do you have to be so tall?" She said; I could almost feel her pout when she said that. "What? I'm only like five-eight, five-nine." "I'm five-three! Way shorter then you!" I turned around and hug her again. "Well at least I can do this." I leaned down and kissed her, all the while the food is still on the stove-top. I remembered all of two seconds later. "Oh, Jävla! The food!" I took the spoon from the counter and moved the peppers and onions and dumped a bag of potatoes into it and stirred it again before covering it. "Phew, that was close, I thought I burned the stuff." Dash looked at me funny. "What exactly are you making? It looked like you just dumped a bunch of frozen potatoes in a pan." I walked over and hugged her again and kissed her forehead. "That's 'cause I did love." I said with a mock British accent that I'm sure Misty would tell me sucked. "So you're just making potatoes?" "Not just potatoes Dashie, potatoes with peppers and onions. Trust me you'll like it, I used to eat it all the time back home." When I said that Dash saw my eyes widen a bit and my ears twitch. "You okay there?" "Hmm, oh...yeah, totally fine." I let her go to go back to cooking but stopped. "Actually could you watch this for me...I kind of need a shirt." "Yeah, sure, I got this." Dash started to move the food around a bit. "Go get a shirt on ya' big dummy." I chuckled going up the stairs and back to my room. I grabbed a grey camouflage button up and a white undershirt and put them on. "Hmmm, maybe I should get something other than camo shirts, hehhee." I said coming back downstairs to see Dash putting the other bag in the pan. It was like a wok pan to it was perfect for this; plenty of room. I let out a big yawn and stretched out my arms and wings before speaking. "Aaaahh, How they looking?" "Eeeehh, I dunno, you know how to do this," She said before handing me the spoon. "besides I might burn it." "Oh come on, Dash, that was one time." "It was last night, and you were hungry." "But I-" "No,no buts. The only but I want to hear is yours moving to the chair and sitting down." Dash walked over to the table and sat down and crossed her arms and gave me a lopsided grin. "There, now you can wait for your breakfast, after all I did promise you that much." "Hmm, yeah, you did didn't you. Alright, make it quick 'cause I need to...actually I don't have work today." "Cool, so you can spend the whole day with me then, and maybe later I could take you out to lunch." "Haha, I'll hold you to that." Just then a yawning Misty walked into the kitchen. "Morhing, aaaahhh, sorry 'bout that, morning guys." She said, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. "Morning." "Morning." "What are you making?" 'Thank you mother' My Ear twitched again. "Food." Misty just shook her head. "Your such a knob." "Eeeehh, you're still my friend." "Only 'cause you have a house we all live in." "Aaaaaaahhh, yeah right." I say chuckling in the end. I was almost finished with the food when the rest of them woke up. "Welcome back from the land of the dead my friends." I said with a decent Prussian accent, which, quite frankly I had no idea I could do. 'Note to self, try out other voice later.' "Morning, de' heck are you making *sniff* it actually smells good." Draco said, walking to the table and sitting down with Celestia following behind with her eyes still holding that sleepy look. "Morning Celestia, you sleep well?" "Coffee." She said groggily. I just chuckled and started making some when she asked, while I finished up the food. It really was nothing special, just some potatoes, or hash-browns if you want to call them that, with peppers and onions, but man did they hit the spot. They were pretty good with black pepper and ketchup. I gave everypony a good amount and we ate. The sound of forks touching plates was the only sound for a while, since most everypony was still sleepy. "*BURP!* Uhhh, heehee, 'scuse me." "Haha, I take it you liked it Dash." Like is probably selling it short since she practically cleaned the plate off without licking it clean. "Well it was pretty simple but," "But it was good?" I asked everypony this time, though, it was more tuned to Dash. I got back a chorus of 'yes's' and 'Mmhmm's' since some of their mouths were full. "It's definitely different from the food the Royal chefs make for my sister and myself...I think I'll have to ask Draco to make it for me." Celestia said, poking Draco in his side. "Yeah, you know, unless he burns it." I said with a big smile on my face, chuckling all the while. "Aaaahhh, screw you blueberry." "Up yours ya' walking sex toy." We stood there in a stare off for all of two seconds before we broke down laughing. "Oh gosh, hahaha, that was funny." "Haha, oh man..." It took us a few more minutes to get the chuckles out. "Okay, I think I'm awake now." "Mmhmm." "Yup." Said Misty and Bass. "You guys got plans for today?" "Yeah, I figured I'd go to Vinyl's store again today." "I think I'll come with you, I need some music to play. I hope they have Green Day." "Well...I guess I know where I'm going today." Draco chuckled as he helped me gather the plates and place them in the sink for, most likely, me to clean them later. "That doesn't sound like a bad idea. I can get an IHoof while I'm there I suppose." That name still make me laugh sometimes, oh well, better then PPhone or PPod, those are just hilarious and I'm glad that's not what they are called otherwise I'd be laughing ever time I say it. "Okay, well, let's get ready and let's head out then." I turned to Dash after Draco said that, walking up the stairs. "You coming Dash?" "Uhhh, yeah sure, why not." We went upstairs and got ready, we were all downstairs and ready fairly quickly, even with Dash accidentally walking in on Misty in the Shower, now that was funny. You could hear her yell "Sorry!" from downstairs and Misty yelp when the door opened. I probably shouldn't have laughed but, hey, it was funny right? So we were ready and waiting for Dash, but when she came downstairs wearing a pair of my pants, which were being held up by her hands by the way, I just looked at her and tried to contain the giggles that tried to escape me. "S-So uhhh, having a little trouble in the pants department are we Dashie?" Dash gave me an adorable pout and looked away, slightly embarrassed with how she had to come downstairs. "Mmmmm, they don't fit and you don't have any belts." She continued to pout until I turned to Celestia who was just about to leave for Canterlot. "Hey, Celestia," She turned upon hearing her name being called. "you uhhh, wanna lend a hand here." I said pointing at the trouser problem that my wonderful marefriend was having at the moment. She nodded and light her horn up and Dash's pants started to conform to her waistline, thus making them fit perfectly without a belt. She also made them shrink down to fit fit her size, since they were a bit long on her too. "Thanks Sunny." I said, which caused Celestia to chuckled and shake her head at my horrible nickname. "Of course, and do figure out a better nickname Bolty." "Ha! You got it Princess toasty buns." That got a good chuckle out of Draco and snicker out of Misty, as well as Dash before Celestia gave me a playful glare and teleported away, back to the castle to do her job of having day court and dealing with the idiots of the nobility and snobs of Canterlot. "Okay, lets go guys." ~~~~ "IIIIIIItt'ssssss hoooooooooooot...soooooooo hoooooooooooot." Draco had been saying that since we got out of the house...if it wasn't for the fact that he was right, I would have smacked him upside the head...'course Dash did remove the shirt she had over her tanktop, so no complaints here. "Draco, please, if you're so hot then why don't you take your shirt off." I heard the sound of a shirt being removed, followed by a happy sigh of relief. "That feels better now." "Draco...I think ponies are staring." "S'all right brother, they just wanna look at all this." Draco flexed and I swear I saw the flower triplets just faint on the spot. Dash laughed, and I think I saw the mayor peeking out from behind the curtains in her office. I got Draco's attention and point him in the direction of town hall's second floor, and when he looked up he winked at the mare, which cause her to panic and fall back to hide herself form view. "Haha, damn Draco." "Yeah, they just be dropping like flys." "Now would you please put your shirt back on." "Awww, why?" Misty looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Do you want to keep your nipples?" Draco looked at Misty's pinching fingers and quickly put his shirt back on. "Good boy." "Eeeehh, didn't want my sexiness distracting everypony." Everypony just rolled their eyes at him. "Alright lets go ya' big ham." Dash gave me a look of confusion. "Saying from back home." Dash made that 'oh' face, which is adorable and I couldn't resist pulling her into a wing hug, which made her blush and grab onto my arm. A few more minutes and we were at the store, you could tell Vinyl was there by the music that was playing inside the store at the time. "Yo, Vinyl!" "Yo, Bolt! Was' good!?" "Not much, just coming by to look some some stuff with my friends...and marefriend." "Yooo! You actually did it, nice Dash!" "I had a feeling one of you girls got her all worked up for her to get so weird like that around me. Eeehh, doesn't matter, guess if it weren't for you we wouldn't be together right now." "Yeah so you owe me...oh! This came in the mail," Vinyl hands me an envolope which had a letter saying the the headphones I had shown her before could be patented and sold to the public. "Since they're your we could-" "Naw, you keep it...you said I owed you right," Vinyl's sunglasses almost fell off her muzzle. "but I guess I could come up with a name...how 'bout Soundwave beats, that sound good." I was expecting something along the lines of 'thank you' but not what happened next. I promptly got hug tackled from across the room. Vinyl jumped over the counter and ran at me and nearly dropped me to the floor in joy. "OhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygosh, thank you so much. This is gonna sooooo help with income with Octy's and my job now. Dude thank you so much!" "Hey, hey yeah, no problem V, I don't need it. Hey, tell ya' what, get yourselves some custom ones, and before you say anything, yes I know Tavi likes your music, get her a pair. I'm getting one myself as soon as they are available." "Uhhh, yeah, about those," Vinyl hops back over the counter and put a small box of the 'new' soundwave beats, which I am still proud that I could come up with a name like that on the spot, and pulled some out. "They sent me some prototypes to just sell have some pony's test them out, so why not you guys?" "Nice." "Sweet, frees stuff!" "That's awesome!" "Hewwll Yeah!" "Sweet!" We all swarmed the box to get ourselves a pair that we liked. "I'll get a Blue one." "I call dibs on the baby blue!" "That green one is mine yo." "Alright, I call the striped one." "Magenta one is mine." After we all finished violating the poor box, which looked like it just got run over, we got our headphones situated around our necks. "Yeah, I ain't ever leaving home without these now." I said grabbing each speaker with my hands. "These things are sweet." I turn to Dash and hand her my phone, she know the lock to it being my MF and all. So she goes to my music and turns it on after plugging in the headphones. "Eeeehh, same thing as my old ones." I just smiled at her, her having never used my old ones, I flip the little switch in the back and watch her face do a one-eighty. "Woah.........sick." "Told'ya." I said with a satisfied grin on my face. "All'a yours do that same thing." "Sweet, kickass bass." "I know right?" said Vinyl. "Hey, I was looking for like music player if ya' had any here. Do ya?" "Yeah, I got some, in the back of the place though...come on." "Hey you guys go and check out what you want, I'll just be in the back." Dash and I followed Vinyl into the back and found her by a wall with a few boxes of IHoofs on the wall. 'Damn I was just joking about the name, hah.' "Okay, this is what I got." I looked for a bit and then I found the beauty that is a Camouflage IHoof. Even found a Wonderbolt's one. "Hey Dash, catch." "Huh, wha!" She catches the box and freaks. "Now way! These things went out of stock like, ages ago! How you get it V!?" "Eeeeeehhh, I have my ways." "Yes you do, and I got the perfect one here." I held up mine. "It would be more camo, wouldn't it?" Dash said jokingly. "Hardy har har, you so funny miss Dash." I retaliated back. Dash just stuck her tongue out at me and blew a raspberry at me. "Careful what you do with that tongue in public Dash." I said with an evil smirk. Dash just narrowed her eyes at me. "Come on, let's go pay for these while the other are still messing around in here." Vinyl goes back behind the counter and rings up both our items. "That's four hundred bits, but I think I can cut you some slack after all you did just give me and Octy another income, sooooo how's two-fifty sound?" "Perfect, and you didn't have to do that." "Ya, you're right, I didn't, but I wanted to so on shoo." She said with her trademark grin. So with IHoof's in hand and headphones around our necks, we want back to find Bass and the rest of them. "Yo, was good bitches!" "Yoooooo, wass goooood my brother from anotha' motha'!" Almost as if we knew exactly what to do next. "You put the pussy on the chainwax!" "You put the pussy on the chainwax!" We were laughing like idiots while Dash an Draco started at us. Misty just smiled and tried 'not' to laugh at our stupidity. "What the heck was that about?" "Oh man, it's just a inside between me and Bass here. You didn't see it so it's hard to explain." Dash just shrugged. "Whatever dude, all I'm saying is that this," She pointed to herself. "is not going on a chain...I don't do that." I put my hands up in defense. "Hey, I wasn't planning on it If that's what you were thinking." "Good, ain't no rope touching this body." I leaned in close to her ear and just barely brushed it with my muzzle making her shiver. "How do you know you won't like it, hmm?" She shivered again and practically bounded across the room with her wings twitching. "NOPE!" That got Bass, Draco, V and me laughing, heck even Misty was have a good giggle out of it. "I'll get you back for that." Dash said with a pout. "Awww, come on, I'm sure I can make it up to you." I said pinching her sides, making her giggle." "Aaah! Stop that!" Dash shrieked out, though she realized what she had done immediately. "Don't you even thing about it mister." "Wouldn't dream of it." I said looking up at the ceiling with and innocent smile. "Hey, Bass, Why don't you see if you can get a job here?" Said Misty. "Huh, that's not a bad idea. Hey Vinyl!" "Yeah!?" "You got a spot for me to work here?" Vinyl grinned and pointed at him with a gloved hand. "You start next week, nine A.M., don't be too late." Bass turned back around and looked at us. "Piece a' cake." "Yeah yeah yeah, good job, you got a job." I said with a slight chuckle. "Oh yeah, hey Vinyl, you doing a gig anytime soon?" "Uhhhmmm...hmmmm, oh yeah, I got one here in ponyville sometime next week, why?" "Need help?" Vinyl was going to say something, but I cut her off. "He's made music before and it's good, he could be your assistant." I said while pushing him in front of her. "Eeeehhh, why not, sure you can come help." "Sweet, alright, you know where yo find me." "Yeah, bummin' it at my house." "Pfft, please, I do work son." "Ha!" "You two are so weird." "Awwww, come on, that's why you're our friend right Mist?" Misty just rolled her eyes and laughed. "Yeah, yeah." We left shortly after that and were heading back towards the market area. "Hey, I'm getting hungry, you guys want to get something?" Everypony else gave me something in the sorts an 'okay' or 'sure', so we went looking for a diner. On our way there we turned a corner and Dash and I bumped into somepony, knocking us all down. "Uggghh, sory 'bout thaaaahahaha DASH! Look!" "Huh, wha.........Oh my gosh...ohmygosh...ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh it's Spitfire and Soarin! *Squee*" "Oh, hey...Rainbow Dash, how's it been?" Dash was currently too busy being the fangirl she was to answer, so I figured I'd take it into my hands to answer for her. "She's been doing fine, she's uhhh, just a little starstruck, as you can see. Yoo-hoo, Dash, helllllloooooo you in there?" "Huh, wha, uhhhh heehee, sorry 'bout that. It's just-" "She's one of your biggest fans." I cut in. "Y-Yeah." Spitfire and Soarin just giggled/chuckled in tandem. "It's fine, we get that a lot." "Yeah, you get used to it." "I guess so...I dunno, not sure if being famous is all that it's cracked up to be really." I said, seemed to get their attention. "Why do you say that?" Asked Spitfire. "Eeeehhh, fame can destroy you or make you. Sometimes it brings out the worst in pony's, or it could make them want to give back to the public...like you two and the rest of the Wonderbolts." "Yeah, I know some pony's who have let the fame get to them, some actors are a bit uhhh," "Dickish?" "Yup." Spitfire responded. "Hey, so, my marefriend here and I, along with my friends, were just going to go eat. You wanna join us, if you're not busy I mean, if not that's cool." Spitfire and Soarin looked at each other before both saying at once. "Sure." "Great, You two know anywhere good? Haven't really gone anywhere else but Burger Princess." "Yeah, there this great place just down here, come on I'll show ya'." "Alright, lead on then." ~~~~ Ten minutes later and we were there. The Café Relic. Nice place, small, but very nice. they had a lot of good stuff there. Wraps and sandwich's, burgers and pizza, and don't forget about the dessert's, Soarin was practically drooling over the pies in here. "Easy there Rin, easy, they ain't going anywhere." "Haha, so you like pies Soarin?" I chuckled. "Their apple pies are some of the best here, but nothing beats the apple family's pies...ever." "They're the best." "Oh, I can second that." Dash said that with her mouth watering slightly. I moved my hand under her jaw and pushed it back up, which made her realize how silly she looked just then and made her blush lightly. "Awwww, is my little Dashie embarrassed?" She gave me a pout and crossed her arms. "You know I think to myself sometimes how it was that I feel for you." " 'cause I'm so charming and good-looking?" "Pfft, haha, you are so bad, you know that." "The worst." I said, and them wrapped my wing around her. When I looked back up I saw the two Celebs. staring at me. "What's the mat...oh right, my wings...right?" Spitfire nodded. "Damn dude, your wings are pretty...uhhh, pretty big I mean." "Haha, easy there sally, I'm taken. But if my marefriend allows it you can get involved." I said with the biggest grin I could muster, because the looks I got from Spitfire and the looks I'm sure Dash was giving me were priceless. "Uhhh, I uhhh..." "Hahahahaha, I'm kidding, kidding, just a jo-OW! Geez, Dash I was joking, hahaha...unless you-" "Hold it right there buster, only I get to decide that," Dash looks Spitfire up and down. "although." Spitfire almost spit her drink out, but swallowed and started coughing. "Kidding, just kidding, take it easy Spitfire." Dash madly giggled out. "You two are enjoying this aren't you?" Asked a now composed Spitfire. "Maybe." "Maybe." "Then again." I pretended to start again. "Nope, shuttin' that down right now." That got everypony to laugh at the table, including Spitfire. "Okay, that was a good one I'll give ya' that." There was a bit of silence before I spoke again. "Hey, you two are in town, are you on break or something?" "Yeah, we are, we have a bout a month before we start with practice's again." Said Spitfire. "Yeah and it's great to go around a actually hang around for once." Added Soarin. "Yeah, I know what you mean. School and such, once you finish with it it's like...damn...free time all day, every day." "Mmhmm." Said Misty. "It's nice, you can do what you want, it's nice." "Wait you got out of school? how old are you?" "Ya, I never really asked you either. Just how old are you anyway?" Asked Dash. "Well, last I checked I was nineteen." Dash and the Wonderbolts got quiet. "What?" "Your nineteen?" Asked Spitfire. "Uhhh, yeeeeaaaahh, why? Your not gonna tell me you're like thirty or something are you, 'cause if you are then damn, you still look good for thirty." "No,I'm only twenty-five, Soarin's twenty-four." "And I'm twenty-two." Added Dash to the conversation. "Well now I feel like a child, man, I'm supposed to feel old then when I hit thirty, want to feel young again, not the other way around, geez, you three make me feel like a child again. I mean Misty over there is only fifteen, Bass is twenty-two and Draco...well that's still a mystery." "And it's staying that way." He said with a grin. "Wow." Dash said. "Oh come on, I ain't young, and you ain't old, you're only twenty-two. give me another year and in December I'm twenty." "Eeehh, doesn't matter, you're mine." Dash said, hugging me." "As are you...little Rainbow." "Hey, just 'cause your 5'9" and I'm 5'3" doesn't make me little." she said with a pout yet again. "No, it makes you cute and adorable." I said as she turned her head. I just kissed her head and rubbed her shoulder. Just as we were about to get out an leave, a stallion walked thru the doorway. Something just scream 'asshole' about this guy, and wouldn't ya' know it, I was right. "YO SWEETCHEEKS, HOW'S ABOUT YOU GET ME SOME OF YOUR SWEET PIE!" The mare behind the counter just groaned and facepalmed. "How many times do I have to tell you to leave and never come back before you listen?" "Awwww, come on sweetheart, you know you like me, why deny it." "Oh for the love of, listen, I won't ask again. Leave. Now." "I ain't leaving without you this time sweetie, now come one, what say you come back to my place and ditch work huh?" Okay I couldn't deal with this guy anymore, I had to do something about it, and it seems that Draco had the same idea as me since he got up too and made our way over to him. "Hey, asshole!" "The mare said to leave. So leave punk!" He turned around to face us. "Hey, fuck off, this is my mare, go find your own slut to fuck!" I'm pretty sure my eyes went cold. "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY LITTLE BITCH!" Draco was just as mad as me, though he didn't say anything. "You wanna go, cause I'll fuck you up in two seconds! Let's go!" Five minutes later, a broken chair, a broken stool and one semi-conscious asshole later, and me and Draco were tossing his sorry hide out the door. The patron in the place were cheering us on for finally getting rid of that pain in the arse. "AND IF I EVER SEE YOU COME AROUND HERE AGAIN 'IMMA SKIN YA' ALIVE YA' HEAR ME PUNK!" "Get the fuck outta' our sight before we really have to brake you." Draco said in a much lower but just deadly tone. Said asshole managed to pick himself up and run away from us, unsure if we were gonna follow him to proceed to kick his ass some more. We walked back to the table and as I passed the counter I stopped to talk to the mare. "Hey, sorry 'bout the mess. I'll pay for the broken stuff," I riffled thru my pocket and found some silver bits. "Here ya' go. I hope that's enough." The mare took the bits and put them to the side. "Thank you, and thank you for getting rid of him finally. I swear he just wouldn't take a hint that stupid bastard! It was starting to get really annoying. I thought I was gonna have to call the guard to deal with him." "Think nothing of it, have a good day miss-" "Cocoa Waffle." just then a Mare walked into the place and called out to her. "Hey, 'splosion!" Cocoa put her head to the counter. "Heeeeeyy, minty." She said back to her friend. "She likes to call me that for my brown patches in my fur. "looks like I had cocoa explode all over you" she says." "Sooooo, Cocoa-" "Don't say it!" "-'splosion?" "......you did it...mmmmm." She put her head back down on the counter. "Heehee, she hates it when I call her that." "I can see that. You and her close?" "Oh yeah, we met a few years back, we've been good friend ever since." "Yup, I met her when I first came here, best friends ever since, just she can be a bit, uhhh." "Energetic?" "Yup!" Answered Minty. Cocoa rolled her eyes at her friend. "Hey, I'll see you later then, I gotta' get back to my friends." "Okay, thanks again and bye." "Bye!" They both waved as I walked away. "Alright, let's pay and get outta' here guys." They got up and we left some bits on the table to pay for our lunch. As soon as we got outside Dash poked me in the side. "Where'd you learn to fight like that? And you too Draco." "Oh, well, I took some self-defense classes and Draco over there knows Muay Thai and some other type as well, can't really remember what it was." "Yup, my old instructor used to make us use coconuts for replacement heads, since they are very close to the density of a skull." "I still think that's a bit fucked up but hey, whatever works I guess." "Eeeeehh," Draco shrugged his shoulders. "it only sent me to the hospital a couple of times, no big deal." "You instructor must have been crazy then." Said Spitfire. "Naw, he was just old fashioned, he did everything the old way. Hey, it worked didn't it?" "I'll say, the way you two kicked his ass around the place was something of a sight to see." "He called my marefriend a whore." "He did know you were with her." Said Soarin. I Kept looking forward, never looking back or sideways. I just breathed in deeply a few times and calmed myself. "Okay...better now. I very rarely get like that, so I'm sorry if that was a bit over the top to some of you. That guy just really ticked me off." "Well, I wanted to kick his ass too you know." Misty said. "Yeah I can tell, don't worry, if he comes back around you'll get dibs on him first." Misty just nodded, but said nothing else. "Hey! Hey you! The uhhh, the Zebra, hey wait up!" Draco turned around so see a Teal Pegasus mare jogging up to us. She had a silver mane and her wings feathers also had a bit of a silver touch on the ends of them and a piercing in her left ear near the tip. "Hey *gasp* I was wondering *pant* if you *gasp* wanted a job *pant* as a bouncer at my club, because, pheeww, wow I need to run or fly more, because I have a spot open for a bouncer at the moment." I looked at Draco and smiled. "My friend might be interested in that." "I used to be a bouncer before I ended up leaving. Sure I could take the spot." "Sweet, thanks, I have somepony coming in at midnight to take your spot for the early morning hours. Oh and you come in at eight to twelve, is that fine?" "Yeah, totally. When do I start?" "Next week today if you can." "Sure thing. I'll be there." "Great, thanks. I'll see you there, oh and my name is Silver Wing." The mare flew off leaving us in silence again for a bit. "Well, looks like you got a job too, Draco." "Yup, and it's something I know how to do well." "And that is?" Asked Spitfire. "Keep the assholes from getting in and toss the drunks out, and occasionally kick somepony's ass." "Huh, well then." "Hey, you two like what you do right? Well this is what he does." "Hey, no judging here." Said Soarin." "You guys are some of the most laid-back Celebrities I have ever met." "Hey, just because we're famous doesn't mean we have to be asses." "And that's why you guys are awesome." I said with a small grin. Spitfire looked at Soarin and then back to me and Dash. "How would you two like to get V.I.P. tickets to the first show of our season?" "YES! Uhhh, I mean yes, that would be awesome." "She excited if you guys couldn't tell." The duo laughed and then told us that they would mail the tickets to the address I gave them. "Well, that was pretty awesome." "Oh my gosh, yes! We get to go to the first show aaaaaaand we get V.I.P. tickets! How awesome is that...your awesome!" Dash yelled before glomping me. "Well, it was really them who said they were going to give us the tickets, not me. Besides I'm pretty sure V.I.P. passes mean backstage as well." I don't think Dash's eyes could have gotten any wider. She really put on the squeeze this time and actually fangirl screamed into my ear...which is now deaf by the by. I winced and I could feel Misty, Bass and Draco wince as well, and it seems Dash noticed too 'cause she grabbed my shoulders and leaned back to look at me rubbing my ringing ear. "Oh uhhhh, whoops heehee, sorry 'bout that. I got a bit excited heehee." Dash said with the most adorable blush ever. "Awwww, it's fine, don't worry 'bout it. You're happy, so I'm happy...and half deaf... but that's just a minor inconvenience." That bought me an attempted kiss on my injured ear. I say attempted since Dash tried to just get on her tip-hooves and kiss it, but gave up and hover just high enough to kiss it. We were about to keep on walking and go back home, since we all had what we wanted; Dash and I got custom IHoof's, Bass, Misty and Draco got their own stuff, and we all got free headphones to test out. Just then Fluttershy walked by with a few birds and animals walking with her. Most of the animals walking with her on the ground were dogs of various sizes, which Misty took notice of. "Hey, Fluttershy!" Fluttershy's ears twitched and she looked around for the voice until she saw us, or more specifically, Misty who was waving. "Oh, hello there Misty. How are you?" "I'm good. Are you taking care of those animals for some ponies?" "Oh, no, not all of them. Some of these do belong to other ponies, but most of them live back at my cottage with me," Fluttershy bent down and picked up a puppy that gave the cutest face when Misty looked at him. "I was just given this little guy from some family who's dog at some puppies and they needed to give away some because they couldn't take care of all of them, so they gave me one. Isn't he the most adorable thing ever." Misty walked over and tickled the dog's belly. "Awwww, it's so cute!" "Would you like to come back to my cottage? You can have some more time with him if you like." Misty turned around to tell us, but I just waved my hand, telling her go. Misty turned back around and started walking with Fluttershy back to her home with the animals in tow. "Well, before anything else interrupts us, let's go! Allons-y!" "You're weird." Dash said poking me in the ribs. "And you're beautiful, but that's already known. Now let's get going!" ~~~~ Twenty minutes later and a key turn later, and we were inside our home again. "Ugggggh, my hooves are killing meeeeeee." Dash complained as she plopped down on the couch. "Mmmm, I'm going to the basement to get a soda, anypony want one?" "Yeah, get me a Blast." Responded Draco. "Get me one of those red ones or whatever you called it." Said Dash. "Naw, I'm good man, I'll get something else from the fridge bro." "Alright, Bass." I said before going into the basement. I came up no more than a minute later with drinks in hand. "Here you go Draco, and this one's for you Dash." I said as I half tossed them, half passed them. "Thanks Babe." "Yo!" I plopped myself down next to Dash and just occupied my time messing with her mane. Don't judge me, Dash liked it anyway's. I sat there with Dash sipping on her drink and me playing around with her mane when I thought of an idea. "Hey, Dash?" "Yes?" She said, tilting her head back to look up at me. "I was thinking, maybe we could do a stream. Ya'know, play games and stuff." Dash pondered it for a moment. Yes I said pondered, I can be civilized and gentlestallion-ly like whenever I feel like it. Where was I, oh yeah, Dash was pondering it for a bit until she tilted her head back again. "Sure, let's do it, I could do with a bit of gaming." I let Dash get up first and then got up myself. We were halfway up the stair before I realized something. "I don't have anyway to let ponies know I'm gonna' stream right now." "Oh, don't worry I got ya' covered." I just raised an eyebrow before turning and shrugging. "Okay then." We got to my 'office' I guess you can call it, and started setting up, getting controllers connected and the computer turned on, which has a glowy bit inside of it's see-thru exterior, and went to the streaming website. NVidya it was called, weird, wasn't there a graphics cards called NVidia on earth. Anyway, I sat down and started looking for a game to play in my games library. It took me a while, but I finally decided on a game. "Hey Dash could ya get my laptop from over there?" I asked while pointing to the sofa in the room. "Sure, gimme' a sec." Dash replied as she walked over to it and picked it up, and walked back. "Here ya' go." "Actually, open it up and go to the Vapour Launcher," Dash did just that. "here lemme' log into my second account." After logging in I checked the library and surprise surprise, it empty. "Okay, so, hold on lemme' uhhh, lemme' just buy this game again so you can play with me." I spent the next five minutes to buy and begin installing the Payday 2 again on my laptop. "There we go, that should be done in like...ten minutes or so." Dash leaned back into her chair and cracked her knuckles. "Nice!" I looked back to my screen and clicked on the tab for NVidya and I nearly went bug-eyed. "Gooo! Whatta'frick...Where did all you ponies come from...I never even announced that I was streaming...how did you find out?" Dash snickered and I looked over at her. "I told ya' I got it covered. I texted Scoots that you were gonna stream and she went and told everypony she know about it and they told everypony they knew and it went on from there." 'Geez, there's like freaking two-hundred of ya' in here!" "Geez...can you guys hear me? Hold on lemme' plug my headset in, maybe that would help out a bit." I said with a faux condescending tone to myself. "Okay, there we go, NOW can you guys hear me?" The chatbox started filling with responses. ~yes!~ ~Mmhmm.~ ~Yup.~ ~Totally.~ "Okay then. With that out of the way, lemme' juuuuussst, there we go." I turned on my webcam and a few seconds later the stream feedback on my second monitor displayed my face. "Yup, there's my ugly mug, right there on the screen for alla'ya to see." ~You're not ugly.~ ~You're beautiful!~ ~Sooooooooooooo sexy.~ "Okay, ignoring that last comment...already have a marefriend, soooooooooo thank you, but no thank you." "Yeah he's taken!" Dash said, popping into the frame on the webcam for my audience. ~Awwwww.~ ~Good for you XD.~ ~HI DASHIE!~ ~IT"S ME PINKIE!~ "Haha, hi Pinks, how's it going?" ~Good! You?~ "Not bad, not bad at all." ~Hey, Cobolt, It's Ditzy! Sorry I couldn't come over before. I got caught up in something else and I forgot to text you. =(~ "Awwwww, it's totally okay Ditz, you're fine. I ended up getting a bit busy that day myself, didn't really get time for myself 'till nighttime." ~Oh, okay then, hey you gonna play anything good? =P~ "Yes, I'm playing Payday 2 today. Dash Is gonna be playing on my laptop, on my other account, with me and two other random ponies that I choose from the stream chat." ~Ohhhhh.~ ~ Nice, can I play with you Soundwave?~ ~How you gonna' choose?~ "Yes, you can play with me, and I'll be using a number generator to choose. It'll be a number from one to one hundred, so it's pretty simple. Just choose a number and cross you're fingers. It's the way to choose somepony, since I have no control of the number decision." ~Makes sense~ ~69!~ '... I knew that was gonna be there soon." I gave them a tired looking 'really?' face. "You guys...oh my gosh, not even 5 minutes in and I see a sex joke in the chat...*sigh*, lets start the choosing then." ~49~ ~79~ ~25~ ~69~ ~53~ And the list went on and on. "Okay, in three, two, one...the number is...*click* fifty, so that means the whoever said forty-nine wins, since no one said fifty exactly. Just send friend request on Vapour and I'll add you to the game when we get in." ~congratz~ ~nice~ ~*TheExplodingPotato*~ "Hahaha, oh my gosh, that's the best name ever! Okay, I'll add you in a second......okay, done. Next pony for the last spot, here we go...choose." ~1~ ~100!!!!!!!~ ~69~ ~68~ ~67~ ~2~ The list of numbers were a bit smaller this time, but there was still quite a bit. "Okay, choosing in, three, two, one...*click*......" I was having a giggle fit as the number generator picked sixty-nine. "Hahahaha, y-you win, sixty-nine wins, ohmygosh, I can't believe that." ~VICTORY!!!!~ ~hahaha lol~ ~ohmygosh, wow~ "Post the name, and I'll add ya'." ~*Immabee*~ "Really you guys! Really!? Are you doing this on purpose!? Are you just changing your names to make them funny or are you actually called that on Vapour, ohmygosh, okay Lemme add you and then we can go ahead and start." I turned to Dash and looked at the screen. "Okay, my Mf's game finished downloaded and it's just going to to the first time setup. I'll start the game and then add you all and we're just gonna' wait for her to finish it up." Another two minutes and the setup was done. Ultra graphics setting...felt nice, really it did. "Alright we all good now? Let's go ahead and choose a heist then." ~How about a hard bank heist?~ "Okay you good with that potato? Dash?" ~Yup~ "Yea, I'm good to go." "Okay then, let's get started...*click* we are going to get so screwed, we have nothing in terms of armor, no medic or ammo bags, and we all have starter guns...we're so done." I don't know how, but we made it into the vault, albeit very messed up, and managed to get at least a bag of money each. "Okay, potato get the snipers, Dash stay close to me, and bee point out any specials, oh and be careful of cloakers, I hate those sonsabitches." ~cloaker to the right, watch it!~ "Got it, I see him," A short burst of fire and he's down. "got the sucke-awww hell, Dozer incoming, make it across the street, forget the Dozer just go go go!" We made it across the street literally almost all dead from damn sniper fire, but we made it nonetheless. You can hear Chains in the background yell in victory and then it cuts to the spoils screen. "Daaaaaaaaamn, we made out pretty good, and a bunch of level-ups too." "I'm up to level eleven now." Said Dash. "Yeah, same. Hey, guys, we're gonna' switch you out for two other ponies after like two more matches, 'kay?" ~Alright, sounds fair~ ~Alright~ "Okay everypony buy your stuff, get your skills and let's go. Gonna choose the nightclub venue this time. Oh man! I almost forgot the most important thing." "What?" Asked Dash. "Oh, you'll see Dashie, you'll see." I fished through my IPony for the song that I was looking for until I found exactly what I was looking for. "There you are." I said before I tapped the screen and began the most amazing music mix that man has ever created. 'I should show this to Vinyl sometime' *Hi...my name is Fox Stevenson...and this is my mix.* 'Let the amazingness begin' So for two more heist's Dash and I, as well as the stream heard the god given mix that was Fox Stevenson. May the Goddess bless his genius. "Okay, thanks for playing you guys, gotta get some new people up in here. Enjoy the rest of the stream you two." ~Okay, cya~ ~Bye bye~ "Okay, let's do this again." *Fatiing!* I looked down at my phone and saw that it was Gilda texting me. ~What, you start streaming and ya' don't invite me to join in?~ "Haha." I respond back, "Naw, I didn't know if you were busy or not. Wanna join?...Actually come over, and bring over your laptop too, you do have Payday 2 right?" and I sent it. fifteen seconds later my phone went off again. ~Alright, and yeah, I do have it. Games awesome.~ I placed the phone down on the table. "Okay, so another friend is coming over to play with us, so until then we're gonna' just take a small break, like ten to fifteen minute break, so enjoy the music and we'll be right back." Me and Dash got up and stretched, each of our bodies protesting from sitting in the same position for too long. Our joints popping, causing us to let out happy sighs. "Much better." "Yeah, I'll say." Said Dash. Five more minutes passed and then the doorbell rang. "I'll get it Bolt." "DASH OFF!" "THAT WAS SO BAD I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO TRY!" Dash yelled back from downstairs. Dash half-flew to the door ad grabbed the knob. "Yo! Sup!" Said Gilda when Dash opened the door. "Hey Gild's, come on up, we were just waitin' for yeah to start up again." "Cool." I could hear them coming up the stairs, just as I was turning the webcam back own to capture my lovely face for my audience. "Heeeeeeeellllllooooooooo, my lovelies, I have returned with a sacrifice!...No, but really, my friend is here so now we can get it started up again." ~sweet, hiiiiiiiii friend~ ~Dat Gilda, nice bro you gonna tap dat ass >ww<~ ~48~ ~39~ "Okay, drawing the number in three, two, one.........ninety-nine...I kind of knew it in my gut, but okay then. Send me the friend request and I'll add ya'." ~SlipperyNipple~ "OH MY GODDESS! WHAT THE FRICK MAN! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! ohmygosh...ohmygosh...hooooooooo, I need to breath, I need to breath, gimme a sec, okay that is the best name ever." "Alrgiht, hey gimme a sec and lemme get this thing on and set up." "You got it Gild's," I turned back around to face the computer since I looked back to talk to Gilda. "so, how you doing today? You having fun so far, enjoying watching me suck at this game, hmmmm? Hahahaha." ~you screeeem funne~ "u writ funnniii" I typed back. ~can you do voice impersonations?~ "Uhhhhhh, hold on lemme find a voice to do," I racked my brain for a voice to do, until I finally got one. "I think I can still do this one...*ahem* *Soarin voice* "Awwww Sweeeeeet! Apple pie!" ~Hahahahahaha XD~ ~ohmygosh you sounded just like soarin!~ ~Dude!~ ~Holysadfdsajhlkh!~ "Hahahaha, oh my gosh I haven't done that in a while." I looked over and saw Gilda doubled over trying not to laugh and Dash actually fell out of her chair, completely unable to stop the giggle fit I had just induced into her. "Dash you alright down there?" I asked with a stupidly big grin on my face. "Y-Yo-hohoho, oh my gahahahahahaaaaassshh,*gasp* I can't breath!" She said, tears streaming down her face from how hard she was laughing at my little impersonation. "Okay, so small two minute break while we wait for these two to regain their composure and we'll start. Here lemme' add you slipperynippilahahahaha, I'm sorry, just your name is just too funny." True to what I said, Gilda stopped shaking, but still had the giggles here and there, Dash was back in her chair and wiping her eyes free of any tears from her literal 'rofl' and we were back in game with the next viewer. "Okay, let's go then, next heist is rats, and I get to mow down fellow hayspanic drug dealer ponies, YAY! That sounded so fucked up, but I dun' cur', 'imma slap the piss outta' dem'!" I half-yelled as I pistol whipped a pony in the face, killing him instantly. "Still don't get how a pistol whip kills you, it's a blunt strike to your face or body, it shouldn't kill you, just ya'know knock ya' to the ground." We all ran inside and killed the gang members in the building and started to collect the chemicals to make the drugs. "Okay I say Gilda goes first, Dash second, Me third, and Slippery goes last to make the meth. That way we don't get mixed up and blow our asses up and we get all the bags of the stuff. Sound good." "Mmhmm." "Yup." ~*sounds good*~ I did a double take at the voice that just came from the voicechat. "Woah!...your a female...name like that I thought you were a typical guy on the internet." ~*Nope, but I'm just as much of a perv. Hahaha*~ "Oh my gosh, Dash I think I found your long lost sister." "Hahaha, yeeeeeaah right." "Dunno Dash I think she matches you almost perfectly." "As if, haha, I'm way more of a perv with my jokes, ain't that right blueberry?" ~blueberry, ahahaha! XD~ ~ohmahgosh~ ~Pffffft blueberry, that's funny~ "Ya, laugh it up, but I embrace my blueberryness! Blueberry color master race!" Everyone changed their chat-name color to blue. "YES WITH THIS ARMY OF BLUEBERRYS I SHALL CONQUER THE PLANET AHA-AHAHAHAHA-MWUAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! *COUGH-HACK-COUGH* ow, okay, not doing the evil laugh again...I ain't cut out for that shiz." ~lol~ ~derp~ "Indeed." I yelped the most manly yelp ever when I turned back to the screen and got shot in the face by a Dozer that had made its way up while I was distracted. "Was...was that you Sound?" Asked Dash. "Dude...what the hell man." Followed up Gilda. "SHUDDUP! I GOT SURPRISED! I YELLED...OKAY!" I yelled jokingly. "Hahahaha, okay, whatever you say." Teased Dash. "Okay, whatever, just...pick my ass up I got downed." "I got ya, I got ya." The rest of the heist went pretty much like that. Get some bags, get shot, and then run away, and as luck would have it there was an escape as well. "Uuuuuuuugggghh, whyyyyyyyy, every tiiiiiiiiiime...*sigh* let's just do it, and I think I'm going to change games." So we did the escape, the deal and then the bus stop finale of the heist, and we also managed to get all the bags too, before we got the rewards and then back to the lobby. "Okay Slippery, it was nice playing with you." ~*Thanks, it was fun playing with you too*.~ "Alright let's switch games now...uhhhhhh, what game you guys wanna' see?" I said as I closed out of the game and went to the game library. "I have Dead Space, uhhhhh, I have Mass Effect, I have uhhhhh, Pony Souls 1 and I have Resident Evil 4, whatcha' guys want?" ~You have outlast?~ ~outlast~ ~outlast~ ~outlast~ ~dude play outlast, please say you have it.~ ~You should play outlast~ I stared at the screen until I looked through my game library, and guess what, I had it downloaded and ready to play. I brought my hand up to forehead and dragged it down my face, down to my muzzle and gripped it, I let it go a moment after. "You guys hate me don't you?" I said with a tired looking face again. "Uhhhh, like that game we uhhhh, played with you and Barb?" "Yup." "Ohhh." "Yeah." "Awwww please you pansy's can't handle a scary game?" "It's not the scary, it's the jumpscares in the game that get ya'." "Yeah, I can agree with that." Said Dash. "Oh pah-lease, I'll sit through it with you guys and show you that it ain't shit." ~15 minutes later~ "AAAAAAHH!" "OOOOHHHH SHIIIIIIT!" "WIGGLE IT!" "I'M TRYING!" *Dead* "FRIIIIIIICK!...Okay, I'm a little mad now, I keep dying to the same fucking dude and fuck this puto, pinche hijo de puta!" "You alright there?" Asked Gilda. "Nope...I think it's time for a break...guys 'imma take a ten minute break, the salt is just too much right now and I don't want to rage quit the stream because of it. We will be right back." I turned the webcam off and muted the mic again and went downstairs to grab another drink from the basement. Brought back a Voltage and another Code Red for Dash. I didn't know what to get Gilda so I brought her one of the Baja Blast one's. "Here you girls go." I said as I handed them off to them and sat down in my chair and proceeded to lean back in it. "I can't play this anymore, I think I'm good for maybe another hour or so before my minds melts." "Yeah, we've been going since, like, what...two in the afternoon I think?" "Yeah, sounds about right. Alright, lets get back to streaming then." I said before turning the camera and mic back on. "We're back and I'm significantly less salty now,so let's this thing-actually, you know what, lets play another game before we finish for the night." ~Slendermane?~ "We're doing it. I did not want to sleep tonight anyway, so lets do it!" A few clicks later and Slendermane the arrival was downloaded quick and ready to play. "Okay, so since I am 'not' doing this alone, I have splitters so that multiple headphones can be jacked in. Dash, Gilda and me will have headphones in and they will watch me scream like a filly, sound good...good. Lets get started!" ~let the screams begin!~ ~I sense...a scream fest oncoming~ "There will be screams to be had, and pants to ruin, just you watch." I walked a few feet in the game before stopping. "You know I have all of you here and I feel like I should name you guys and gals of the chat something...how does being my 'wavelings' sound to you?" ~Love it!~ ~we shall cover the planet in our numbers!~ ~THE WAVELING ARMY!!!!!~ "Hahaha! My lovelies, come to me! Let us bath the world in our greatness!" "You're so weird." "I second that." "Shuddup you love it." I said to both Gilda and Dash, but mostly to Dash. "Shuddup." Dash said as she gave me a sideways glance. I chuckled and grinned as I started moving again. A few minutes later I found the first page and the music officially started up with the booming bass. Gilda didn't want to say it, but I could see she was getting a bit anxious, and so was Dash, hell I was the most nerve wracked since, ummm yeah hello, I'm the one playing it. Two more pages and we had our first sighting of Slendermane. The bass boomed in our headphones, making us all jump, me more then the others since I kind of, might have, almost flung my mouse across the room. "HIJO DE PUTA!" I yelled as I run away from the skinny sunnavabitch that was running after me. Some time later and at page number seven, we met up with Slendermane again, though, this time he was right in our faces. "AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" "RUUUUUUUN!" "HOLY FLYING FEATHERS RUN YOU MORON!" Gilda yelled at me. "I'M TRYING!" I yelled back, clearly panicking "TRY HARDER!" Gilda just yelled back in response. then Slendermane just popped up on the screen, killing us instantly and making us scream...very loudly. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!...Hmmmmmmmm...hmmmmmmm...hmmmmmm." My hands shot up to my head and clenched into fists. I breathed in and out very slowly, trying to calm myself. I looked to my left to see the best thing ever. Gilda, the one who said that 'we' were pansies, was literally shaking a bit form the scare we just got. Dash had her hands on he muzzle to prevent her from screaming when he popped up, her pupils were also almost the size of pinpricks. "Okay guys and gals, I think we had a very good stream tonight and I would like to thank you all for coming out tonight and watching me suck at video games and shit my pants. Thank you, and once again remember, stay awesome. Cya' next time...oh yeah, here go to this link and follow it so you can get updates on when I'm doing a stream again. Okay, for real this time, bye bye. ~bye bye Bolt~ ~Later man~ ~night dude~ I cut the feed to the camera and the stream, which cut the feed from the mic as well. "I think it's food time...what do you girls think?" "Uhhhhh, y-yeah, that sounds good to me." "Dash?" "Hooooooly crap! I thought I peed myself...yeah, yeah food sounds good right about now." "You okay girls? 'Cause I think my heart skipped a beat when that happened." They nodded, albeit in a very tired like manner, but still. "Alright, I say we just order pizza, I don't feel like cooking right now," I grab my cellphone from the table and dial the number for the pizza place. "Oh yeah, what do you want on it?" I asked as it rang. "I want Olives, mushrooms, peppers, oh yeah! Jalapeño's, gotta have those too." "I thought you could take spicy?" I said with a teasing tone. "I can, just not those, whatever they were, that were in the chineighse food." "Haha, alright then, hey Gilda what do you want?" "Eeeehh, I guess I'm good with that too." ~Hello, thank you for calling little neightaly, how my I help you?~ "Hi, let me have 2 large pies, uhhhh, both of them with olives, mushrooms, peppers and Jalapeño's." ~Sure, anything else sir?~ "Yes, can you deliver it to twenty-five Apple Lane?" ~Sure thing, it'll by there in thirty minutes.~ "Thanks." I hung up and leaned back in my chair. "Thirty minutes girls." "Ugh, that's gonna take foreverrrrrrr." "Awwww, come down Dashie." "*Snrk* " I heard Gilda snicker. "What?" "So Pinkie ain't the only one to call her Dashie huh?" "Nope." I say with a grin. "Help's that she's my marefriend." Gilda's jaw dropped and she just stared at us. "You two...together?" She said, pointing at us with a talon. "Mmhmm." "Yup." Dash and I responded back. "Wow, I never would have thought...I mean...wow..." Gilda looked at me with a grin. "Looks like you were the stallion to ground her huh?" Dash was gonna say something, but I put a wing around her and brought her closer to my side. "Yup!" I responded back with a grin of my own. Dash couldn't help but smile and blush. The conversation went on for until the doorbell rang again, signaling that our food had arrived. I went downstairs, payed the colt and brought the food upstairs. "Food's here!" An then it wasn't. When I opened the box half the pizza was gone in like five minutes. The rest was gone in the next half hour. "Ugh, can't...eat anymore." "So full." "I immediately regret my decision." Yeah, two pizza's and three ponies to eat them. Not really the best plan. We were so full of food that were we just immovable masses in the room. I was in my chair, Dash on the floor up against the couch and Gilda on said couch. "I think if I move imma' vomit." "Don't you dare move Gild's...but I'm right at that point too." Dash said from he position. "I'm...not...moving...ever...again...blurgh." I said from my chair. Almost comically, all three of us burped rather loudly, which helped with our immobility problem quite a bit. "Okay...I feel somewhat better now...and sleepy...very sleepy." I said, giving a loud yawn afterwards which eventually spread to the two other girls. "Yeah, it's late," Gilda looked outside. "Awww dang, I hate flying at night. Hey is it alright if I stay here for the night?" "Yeah, sure. You can use the pull-out over there. It's awesome, I tried it and it's hella' comfortable." I got up and left the room to get some pillows and a blanket for Gilda. "Here ya' go." "Thanks dude. Just gotta let Trix know I'm staying the night here." Gilda said making her way to the couch. "Hey, you ready to go to bed Dash?" Dash yawned again. "Yeah, I'm exhausted and full of food." Dash got up groggily. "Let's go to sleep." "Alright, *yawn* let's go. Night Gilda." "Night guys." Gilda had already pulled out the bed and was wrapped in her blanket. Dash and I went to my room and sort of just stripped down to our undies and slipped into bed. I leaned over and kissed Dash on her ear. "Night Dash." She did the same to me before hugging my body and getting comfortable. Sleep soon overtook our minds and we drifted off to Luna's realm of dreams. It felt like I started to dream almost instantaneously. I was in a field with Dash, and we were sitting on the grass up against a tree, Dash in my arms and her head resting on my chest. I could feel the breeze blowing in my face and smell Dash's natural scent; It was calming. It didn't last for too long before it all just sort of melted away and left me in an empty space, wondering what the hell was going on. The feeling of being alone didn't last for long either since seconds later there was a flash and then Luna stood before me in all her regal glory. "Luna? What are you doing here?" I asked the lunar Princess. "I have come to you because I can feel something is bothering you. You're constant daydreaming let on to that much." She responded. "Hmmm." Was all I said. "So what is bothering you if I may pry?" Luna asked me as she stepped closer to me. "Well..." I started. "Yes?" "Well...you see...I kind of left home without so much as a "Hey mom, dad, little bro! I'm going to move away forever and I'm never coming back! Bye! Oh yeah, and you'll never be able to talk to me ever again, sooooo, yeah, good luck with that!" so pardon me if I seem a bit...distant." Luna looked at me for a moment before closing her eyes. She opened them a moment later, and stepped within arms length of me and put her hand on my shoulder. "I could let them know in their dreams that you are okay and that they need not worry about you." "Can you really do that? I mean I know you guys brought me and my friends here, but. Can you go into theirs dreams and let them know I'm alright?" Luna gave me a warm smile that seemed to radiate a sense of calmness on me. "Of course. I shall let them know that you are fine, and not to worry any longer, Cobolt." I sighed as I felt a weight lift off my shoulders since I knew that I wouldn't have to worry about that anymore. 'Sorry I left you mom, but I'm happy here. That and I finally found a girl that loves me for me, so there's that.' "Hey, Luna." "Hmmm." She hummed in return. "Tell my dad I found a nice girl to that actually likes me for who I am will ya'?" Luna brought a hand up to stifle a giggle. "Of course. I'll let him know. Now if there is nothing else." "No...just...thanks Luna." "You're very welcome." That was the last thing Luna said before the dream I was having came back, and the empty space disappeared and was replaced with the scenery from before. The night seemed to have passed fairly quickly because I awoke a few minutes later. 'Awww, I liked that dream.' I looked down and found the real Rainbow Dash clinging to my side with a cute face as she slept. 'Though dream Dash ain't got nothing on real Dash. I thought to myself as I hugged the mare closer to me and grinned as she wriggled around in my embrace to get more comfortable. 'Yeah, I said it before, but I'll say it again. I am really gonna love it here.
