Chapter 7: Getting Things Done.
Once I awoke from my slumber I saw Quick Strike is gone. ‘huh she’s up early’ I thought as I looked at the clock that hung over the television which showed nine thirty. ‘I overslept great’ I thought as I stood up and entered the living room.
“Good morning daddy!” Red Rose Shouted as she hugged me.
I chuckle and said “ Good morning Red Rose, I guess that Mom told you about what we're planning.”
“Yup!” She replied as Blue Sky entered.
“Good morning Dad.” She said tiredly walking right past me into the kitchen as Red Rose followed her.
“Good morning to you to Blue Sky.” I said.
I went after her and saw Hakkar and the kids sitting at the table while Quick Strike was making breakfast. “Good morning Hakkar.” I said as I came in.
I went over to Quick Strike and kissed her on the cheek before I said “good morning hun” to her.
“Good morning honey” she replied.
I sat down at the table and asked “How did you all sleep tonight?”
“Horrible” The kids said in unison. “Hakkar snored for a long time.” Blue Sky said.
I let out a chuckle before I said “Well maybe next time Hakkar should sleep on the couch.”
“I would actually like that the mattress Quick Strike gave me to lay on was stone hard but I’ll take what I can get.” Hakkar said.
“Wow okay then anyways what are you all going to be doing today?” I asked.
“Well I’m planning on talking with Princess Celestia once Breakfast is done.” Hakkar said.
“We have school” Blue Sky said sadly.
“School isn’t that bad is it? wait doesn't school start at eight?” I asked.
“Well I got a letter informing that school was closed for another hour because some sort of accident happened.” Quick Strike said.
“Thanks hun, and what’s happening in school that make you dislike it?” I asked.
“It’s that we get bullied every day because were blank flanks.” Blue sky said as she started to cry.
I moved over to her side and held her “there there let it all out, I’ll speak to those who bully you and to the teacher about this.” I spoke to her.
“You...you will?” She asked.
“Of course what kind of dad would not do anything for their kids or foals.” I said.
“Thank you, thank you!” Blue sky shouted as she hugged me or tried since her hooves couldn’t get around my waist.
“You're very welcome.” I said.
“Rhino Prime what are you gonna be doing today?” Hakkar asked me.
“Well I need to get the Dojo here after I solve the bullying problem and after that have a chat with the princess.” I said.
“Well Good luck with your tasks.” Hakkar said.
“Thanks and same to you my friend.” I said as Quick Strike brought over breakfast and sat down to my right.
“Sounds like you two are busy for the day.” Quick Strike answered.
“Yeah we are but any ways what are you going to be doing today?” I asked.
“Well I still have my job until I get a belly and when my shift is done I’ll visit the Doctor.” She replied as everyone else started eating.
“Then I hope everything goes well for you then.” I said.
“Thank you.” She replied.
As we all sat there I drifted of to my thoughts. ‘Hmm what would Princess celestia say if I told her of my marriage. I also hop that the ponies will react positively to the arrival of the dojo and my clan.’ I was brought out of my thoughts by Hakkar shaking my body.
“Huh…?” I said.
“You alright hun?” Quick Strike asked.
“Yeah i’m alright was just thinking.” I replied.
“All right but were done eating and the kids are ready for school so could you take them to school?” Quick Strike aske.
“Sure, alright kids lets go.” I said.
“Okaaay” They moaned.
-On the way towards school-
I had both Red Rose and Blue Sky sitting on my shoulders one side each as they played with each other.
“Ow…” Red rose said as tears started to fill her eyes
I noticed this and took Red rose and held her with my arms and started to sooth her. As she calmed down I held her in my arms for a while.
“Blue Sky what do you have to say to your little sister?” I asked.
“Um...It was an accident daad” She said.
“Still what do you say when it’s an accident?” I replied.
“I’m sorry sis” Blue sky said softly but enough for both of us to hear.
“Thats better.” I replied. “Are you going to be alright with being up with your sis again or do you want to stay in my arms for the rest of the way?” I asked Red Rose.
“Um I would like to be up with my sister again please.” She replied.
“Alright here you go” I said as I put her back on my shoulder.
“Thank you daddy.” She said.
“You're very welcome.” I said.
-At the school-
As I came to the school all the other fillies saw me and ran inside. “Wow am I that frightening?” I asked no one.
After a while waiting with my kids out came a Stallion with a bushy mustache similar to the baron mustache that we can use every movember.
“Hello there stranger why are you here with the students of Mr.Herman?” He asked.
“Greetings I’m the father of these two wonderful fillies may I also ask who you are?” I said.
“I’m Lance the principal of this school and you are?” He asked.
“I’m Rhino Prime a Tenno and the farther the these two.” I said as I set Red Rose and Blue Sky down. “There you go you two now go on to class.” I said.
“It’s nice to meet you is there anything I can do for you?” He asked.
“Yeah I would like to speak with the teacher to my kids.” I said.
“For what reasons?” He asked.
“There getting bullied mostly Blue Sky because she doesn't have a cutie mark.” I replied.
“Allright Come with me and you can talk with him in private in his office.” He said.
-Mr.Herman’s office-
I waited for Mr.Herman to arrive and he did shortly.
“Yes what can I do for...you…?” He said as he noticed me.
“Well my fillies told me about them being bullied, mostly Blue Strike is being bullied.” I said.
“Alright who's the other filly?” He asked.
“Red Rose a younger sister to Blue Sky.” I said.
“Do you know what they are being bullied about?” He asked.
“Blue Sky told me she was being bullied because she didn’t have a cutiemark like all the others had, either you handle this problem or I will personally speak to those who bully my kids.” I said in a threatening way.
“A...all..all right… sir.” He said while shaking with fear.
“Good I’ll be going see you around.” I said before leaving and making my way towards my ship.
It took me a while to get to my ship because it was parked quite the distance away from the school but I made it. Entering my ship I set the course for the orbit of planet Equis. “Now to get the dojo here” I said to no one in particular. “Speeeekinnng to yourself again Operator?” Ordis said.
“When did you get a sense of humor on that level Ordis?” I asked.
“What do you mean sir?” Ordis asked.
“Because you only seem to tell one joke since I got you.” I said.
“You didn’t teach me any jokes, you also didn’t joke with me either but that got fixed since Miss Pie taught me some jokes.” Ordis replied.
“Wait who’s Miss Pie?” I asked.
“She said her name was Pinkie Pie sir” He replied.
“How did one of the elements get inside the ship?” I asked.
“I do not know sir she just appeared here looking for something I do not know of” He said.
“All right.” I replied.
“Sir we have arrived at the optimal point for the Dojo.” Ordis spoke. “Should I start the transition?” He asked.
“Yes please start the transition.” I said so I watched the process commence.
It required every ounce of energy my ship was able to give so all the nonessential systems were shut down the only systems that were left powered was life support and Main systems. I was left in the dark, floating within my ship watching a gigantic golden portal with a white outline form. Once the portal fully formed my Dojo was starting to emerge. Once the Dojo was in orbit of Equis I scanned it for any damage and other anomalies. Once everything was given a thumbs up I went back to the capital of Equestria, Canterlot. ‘now the only thing left to do is to speak with Celestia.
After an hour of traveling I stood in front of the throne room before I could push the door open Hakkar came out. “Greetings Hakkar how did your meeting with the princess go?” I asked.
“Oh Greetings to you too Prime It went extremely well I got my own classroom at Canterlot University where I could teach about the Orokin Empire and I can start tomorrow.” Hakkar answered.
“That's very nice to hear Hakkar but anyways I got a meeting with the Princess.” I said.
“I wish you luck then.” He said before turning and heading elsewhere. So I pushed the doors open and entered.
Inside I saw Celestia Speaking with a noble so I waited a few meters away and waited which wasn’t that long of a wait. When the noble exited the throne room I went over towards the Princess.
“Greetings Princess I would like speak with you if you have a moment.” I said.
“Oh hello Rhino Prime I have time what do you want to talk about?” She asked. “Oh If it's about marrying Quick Strike you do not need to worry I have allowed you to do so but I was wondering if it was possible to do the marriage at your Dojo?” She asked again.
“Wait how do you know…?” I asked.
I get a chuckle from Celestia before she answers. “Quick Strike came and told me about her situation and the marriage of you two.” She said.
“Okay, It’s possible to arrange the marriage at the dojo about two days from now.” I said.
She clapped her hooves once before speaking “That's great I’ll invite the elements, my sister, Cadence, Shining armor and Quick Strike’s family.” She said.
“And i’ll invited my fellow tenno friends and the Lotus.” I said.
“Who is this Lotus? isn’t it a plant?” She asked.
I gave a chuckle before answering. “Dear Princess a Lotus is a plant but this Lotus Is the leader of the tenno.” I said.
“Oh I forgot that but I can’t wait to meet her.” She replied.
“Allright it’s about time I pick up the kids and head back home Cya at my ship in two days!” I said while I turned and left.
I arrived at the school and saw Red Rose and Blue Sky waiting at the gate. As they both saw me the ran towards me while shouting “DADDY!” all the way.
Catching them in a hug I asked them “How are my two favorite fillies?”
“Were fine” Red Rose said.
“That's good to hear.” I said while lifting them up and giving them both a piggy back ride home. “Has the bullying problem stopped yet?” I asked.
“Yes daddy thank you!” They said.
“That’s good to hear.” I said.
-At home-
I arrived home with the kids lowering them down to the floor I head over to the living room where I saw Hakkar and Quick Strike with the kids.
“So how was the day for you two?” I asked Quick Strike and Hakkar.
“Everything has been going well but you already know how my day has been about me getting to teach at the university.” Hakkar said.
“Same thing here I just told Princess Celestia about my situation and when to talk with the doctor and got an appointment 2 weeks from now.” Quick Strike told me.
“That’s great to hear from you two I have already solved the bullying problem with the kids got the Dojo in orbit which we can see right now but, it’s more beautiful at night to look at and talked with Celestia about the marriage which will happen on the Dojo if the Soul King's allows me to do so.” I said.
“Well I hope they do because I would like a tour of the Dojo.” Quick Strike Asked while Hakkar just nods with agreement.
“A tour you can always have at any time unless the Dojo is in lockdown mode” I said.
“What can cause the Dojo to go into lockdown?” Hakkar asked.
“Well two main things, first an attack on the dojo or the planet and second a Technocyte Virus infestation in this sector.” I said.
“Alright thanks *Yawn* I’m going to bed now goodnight” Hakkar said.
“Good night Hakkar.” Quick Strike said. “Any ways a pregnant mare like me needs her beauty sleep, are you coming?” She asked before stating “I would like to use you as a pillow you surprisingly comfy.”
“Alright i’m coming but I never thought of being this comfy through all the Armor I have.” I said.
After I said that Quick Strike and me snuggle in bed for a while before falling asleep in each other arms/hooves
