//------------------------------// // 18. Friendly Fight // Story: Ponyville Police Department // by Omega6047 //------------------------------// ATTENTION!!! First part of the chapter is on the edge of clop, skip it if you don't like this stuff --Chapter 18-- Friendly Fight Twilight begun to slowly emerge from the dream world and back into reality. Her mind was still cloudy, but she could clearly feel that she was cuddled into something warm. She didn’t even dithered herself with checking what it was, the only thing that her mind cared about at the moment was that it was warm and felt nice. Unconsciously, she cuddled closer to the source of warmth. It felt nice to cuddle like that, and for long minutes she didn’t even bother to check who or what she was cuddling with, but as the time went on her curious side won over and she was forced to open her eyes and investigate. She soon found herself looking at a blue piece of clothing, immediately recognizing who was its owner. For a few moments she just looked at it, with her face beet-red, but in one moment something snapped in her and she just placed her head back on the pillow and cuddled to him again as his arms wrapped themselves around her tighter. She could hear his heart beating in his chest, much faster and louder then pony heart would. She didn’t care about how awkward it may be when he wakes up, it felt way too good to just stop. And soon it became a bit too good when she felt his hot breath on base of her horn. With how they were lying, Revan’s face was right above her, and since his nose was buried in her mane anytime he exhaled, his breath would meet the base of her horn. At first it wasn't much, as long as she didn't push any magic into her horn the base of it was the only sensitive part, and that still wasn't much. However, the problem started appearing when Revan pulled her closer and his mouth touched the base of her horn. She found herself releasing a silent moan at the sudden contact, blushing appropriately to the situation. Still, for some reason she didn't wanted to leave. The sun's still not up, might as well enjoy this... She moaned into his chest as he exhaled again. It quickly became tempting to put some magic into her horn, but she tried to repress the urge, she knew what would happen if she did this, and that this would surely wake him up. But Revan quickly did something that made her rethink her statement- he started kissing her horn in his sleep. Her eyes snapped wide open as she started moaning again, her magic working on its own after the constant pressure on the base, started to build up in her horn. She tried to move away, but Revan's arms were hugging her so tightly that the only movement she could make was moving her front hooves down. Which is exactly what she did. Or would have done if she didn't hear Revan yawing and waking up. He face became so red it could have been mistaken for a tomato as she looked him in the eyes. Revan was pulled out of his dream and into the real world, releasing a loud yew. He felt something cuddled into his chest and opened his eyes, only to face Twilight's horn, which for some reason was wet. He didn’t bother himself with that fact, instead looking down at the toma- Twilight with face as read as tomato. “Hope you slept well, ‘cause I had a really nice dream.” He said sheepishly, letting his face fell back on the pillow. “Y-yeah, it was… nice…” “You were in that dream too you know. I don’t remember what we were doing but I’m pretty sure I saw you that purple face of yours.” For some reason that he didn’t know, her blush increased after he said that, somehow. “Y-yes, of course, b-but can you let me go, I kinda need to… umm… go to the bathroom! Yes, go to the bathroom to do… s-stuff.” He moved his arms away, somewhat hesitantly. Twilight jumped out of the bed and quickly walked away from it, for some reason, keeping her tail between her legs. “Mind if I stay here? I’m kinda tired.” He said. “Yes, of course.” She was about to keep going but as she reached the stairs she remembered something. “Um, there are earplugs in the nightstand. C-could you put them on?” He reached out his arm and after a short moment of searching, he found his target. In the meantime, Twilight levitated another pair of earplugs, with ‘Spike’ written on them. When Revan put the earplugs into his ears she immediately rushed down the stairs. Revan on the other hand just allowed himself to fall back on the bed, quickly noticing one detail that he didn’t earlier. Why the hell is the bed so wet? He shrugged that off and proceeded to take care of more important things, like sleeping. It didn’t take long for him to wake up and for Twilight to finish whatever she was doing and soon they both went into the small, mostly improvised kitchen Twilight had to set up, there wasn’t anything even resembling the kitchen before. The libraries weren’t exactly meant to live in them, though Twilight would disagree with that. They both tried to make something to eat, with trying as a key word. Neither of them had much of an idea about cooking stuff, so the two quickly managed to burn toasts and pancakes. After series of failures, Revan eventually decided to scramble some eggs. “I refuse to believe that this will be enough for the two of us.” She said, still blushing a little. Through the entire morning she was rather quiet, for some reason trying to avoid looking at him. “That’s only for you, I’ll eat those pancakes and toasts.” He replied. “You want to eat those? But they are burned! Why would you want to do it?” “Because: a) I ate worse. b) You look like you haven’t eaten much lately. c) I don’t like wasting food. d) There are no more eggs in the library, or anything else for that matter. e) I can. And f) Because you’re my friend and I care about you.” He said, making her blush again at the last point. “W-what do you mean ‘you ate worse’?” She said as he added some left-over onion into the eggs as he kept mixing them. “That I ate some things that would make most people puke. Like that one time when my friend decided to prank me. He and his girlfriend invited me for dinner, so I thought I’ll come and catch up with them. Everything was fine, but the problem appeared when we begun the dinner. They handled me a plate with food and I started eating, however the cutlet they’ve made was… special… And by that I mean that it was piece of shit… literally…” “D-did you…?” “I took one bite and puked. Don’t worry though, I paid them back in kind.” “How?” “Since they loved shit so much I made sure they won’t live the toilet for the next few days.” He smiled at the memory of sweet revenge.“I switched the milk from the milkman on my own enhanced version. The enhancement being ‘diarrhea in powder’” His smile widened and he let out a small laugh, and so did Twilight. “Anyways, as far as things that I ate and didn’t throw up go, I ate: living bugs, larvae and worms, slimes, raw meat, rowanberries, 100 year old egg, Haggis, my own cooking, fried bull’s balls, cooked brain and few days ago I ate a flower. The list goes on but you get the idea.” “I… think I do…” He turned off the gas and put the eggs on the plate, doing the same with his food. He took both plates in his hands and placed them on the small table nearby. “I really need to take some cooking lessons.” He said as he sat on the stool. “You can ask Spike about it, he’s really good at this. He tried to teach me some things one time but apparently, my cooking is ‘beyond redemption’.” She sat as well, levitating a fork to herself. Next couple of minutes they spent in silence, eating their breakfast. “So, you’re fighting Rainbow today, right?” Twilight spoke up. “Yup, you’re fighting her tomorrow too?” “I… I decided to back down. I know she wanted it, but… I don’t want to fight her. At all.” She sighed. “Well, what do you expect? You think you’ll win?” “Honestly I’m not sure. I’ve looked up her previous fights and I must say that she’s good. Really good. There is however one thing she has a big problems with, her endurance. Practically all of her fights were won within the first minute, and I know for sure that I have far more stamina then she does. If I manage to withstand the early fight then it will just get easier as the time will go. But still, it won’t be easy.” “So what you’re saying is that you’re going to tire her out before taking the offensive.” He nodded. “Well, what do you think she’ll be bringing to the table?” “Speed. That’s her biggest trump card and I’m 100% sure that she’ll try to get this done as fast as she can and that she favors speed over strength. At first it will be really hard to actually hit her so I’ll have to defend myself and let her get tired. I’ll have to focus on keeping my eyes on her, which might be problematic considering that she’ll be allowed to fly.” “You allowed her to fly!? But you don’t have any magic to help you, how do you want to keep up with her!?” “I’ll wing it, like usual.” He shrugged. “Besides, I think I’ve told you that I can take quite a hit and get up anyways, I mean, I’ve fought with a bullet in my leg, broken rib and after being kicked in the balls and still won.” “You’re… crazy…” she shook her head, looking at him in disbelief. “Said a purple Unicorn who is mother of a dragon, bearer of Element of Magic, one of the most powerful unicorns alive, student of a horse-Jesus addicted to cake who lives in a library and despite possessing vast knowledge about quantum physics can’t figure out how to make a toast. I’m pretty sure you’re the crazy one here” He said. “I jesteś tak słodziutka, że boje się, że dostanę cukrzycy ((And you’re so cute that I’m afraid I’ll get a diabetes)).” „Why do you keep talking Ponysh? It’s been a dead language for centuries.” She asked. “Polish. And in my world it’s far from dead.” He replied. “I sometimes use it because it’s my first language and I’m simply used to it. Also, it allows me to say things that no one understands.” “Could you… teach me?” He raised the eyebrow. “Why? You said it yourself, it’s a dead language.” He said. “Because I…” He trailed off. She knew why she wanted him to teach her, but at the same time had no intention to actually tell him. “I… um… So w-we can have our secret language! You know, like friends do.” She gave him awkward smile. Please buy this, please buy this, please buy this, please buy this, please buy this… He crossed his arms and raised eyebrow. “Is that the real reason?” No. “Y-yes.” “Are you sure? You’re not just looking for an excuse to see me do you?” He smirked. Yes. “No!” “Well, if you say so…” He watched as she blushed with bright red, biting her lip and looking away. “Seriously though, I’m not sure how will I do as a teacher, but sure. If you want to I can teach you. Remember though, Polish is not an easy language to learn, and I have yet to see a person that managed to not only learn it, but also fully get rid of the accent. Even I sometimes have problems with pronunciation since I moved out to America 10 years ago.” Twilight managed to slightly calm herself down, but not enough to look him in the eyes. “Yes, I-I’m sure.” “Alright, I’ll get here tomorrow and see what can I do about it. For now, let’s finish this and I’ll be going, I’m supposed to meet Rainbow in two hours and I want to warm up before we start.” It didn’t take them all that long before they finished. Spike woke up shortly after that, finding himself cuddled into Mischief, who was also awake. Revan was about to apologize to him for not leaving him any food (Mischief ate what he and Twilight didn’t eat) but before he said anything, Twilight pulled a sack full of gems and passed it to the dragon. “Why are you-“ He wanted to ask her about it, but his jaw dropped when he saw Spike biting the gem. “What the-!?” Spike looked at him oddly. “What is it? You want one too?” He threw a blue gem to Revan. The human almost didn’t catch it out of the shock of what he just saw. He looked at the gem in his hand. “Sorry, but I’d rather have my teeth intact.” “Don’t worry, from what Twilight had told your teeth are just as strong as mine, and even she was able to make a crack on one, and ponies have much weaker teeth then dragons. Well, she did lost 2 teeth in doing so but at least ponies grow them back.” Revan looked at the gem again. Eh, screw it. YOLO. He put the gem in his mouth and slowly pressed his teeth against it, slowly increasing the pressure. To his surprise and disbelief, the gem begun to crack under the pressure. “Well how is it?” Spike asked as Revan chewed the piece of the gem, still not believing in what was happening. At the time Twilight was taking notes. Because of course she would. “You… don’t want to know…” “Oh, come on! I must know!” Twilight protested. “It… It tastes…” “Come on, spill it!” Spike said. “It tastes like chicken…” About half an hour later Revan and Twilight left the library, walking towards the field where he was supposed to meet with Rainbow. As they got closer, they begun to notice ponies gathered there. It was to be expected that rainbow would want a crowd to witness her skills, but from the looks of it half of the town was here, and it was still an hour until the fight is suppose to begin. “Rainbow, why are all those ponies here?” Twilight asked. “I dunno, maybe they just want to see the only human in Equestria fighting the most amazing Pegasus to ever exist?” She deadpanned. “Ok, I see your point.” Revan said. “So, Twilight. How was it to sleep with our dear friend Revan?” Rainbow teased. “O-oh! I- I…” Her blush returned. “From the way you two cuddled I’d say you both liked it.” Revan also blushed a little, but tried not to show any signs of embarrassment. “And how would you know about it, you didn’t break in, right?” „No, but you forgot to close the window, soooo… I kinda made you a favor and closed it for you.” She smirked. “Sure you did.” They talked for a bit longer before they all went in their own direction, Revan and Rainbow to warm up and Twilight disappeared in the crowd. Through the entire time, the crowd kept growing, and when the time for the fight came, at least ¾ of the town –not counting foals, though few probably sneaked their way there anyways. Revan stood on the opposite side of the ring, to Rainbow. It wasn’t a real fighting ring, just a circle made out of rocks, but it was enough for them. The fight itself was going to be almost completely without any rules, save for few not allowed places to hit and leaving the ring (Rainbow also couldn’t fly higher then 15m up, something that Twilight made sure won’t happen with a magic barrier). The two bowed to each other and both took opening stances. Rainbow stood with her left back hoof slightly extended backwards and her front bent downwards with right hoof extended ahead and slightly on the right. Revan had his hands slightly below his eye level, ready for blocking attacks. His right leg was slightly backwards. The two kept looking at each other until Mayor Mare gave them a signal to begin. Rainbow wasted no time, and with her wings flew towards Revan. She was so fast that if it wasn’t for the position he was in, she would have hit him right in the chest. Her hoof met his arm which blocked the attack, but she didn’t stop the attack and allowed the momentum to carry her until she was behind him. Rainbow tightly wrapped her hooves around his neck as her bottom hooves hit the back of his knees, forcing Revan to kneel. She was about to kick him again, but before she could do this, his arms wrapped themselves around her midsection, keeping her in place as he rolled back. She let him go and Revan immediately was preparing himself to smash his knee into her. She quickly retaliated and dodged, flying up and sending a kick with her back hoof. Revan grabbed it, and Rainbow added her second hoof, which was also grabbed by Revan. Then, she smashed her front hooves into his chest, making him take a step back and let her go. He was quickly forced to block another series of attacks, blocking all but one, which hit him in the shoulder. Like he expected, Rainbow was furiously fast and extremely determined to win. Her strikes held surprising amount of strength, something he didn’t expect. But still, even though she was as fast as Nightmare Moon –if not a bit faster- her strength was nowhere near Nightmare’s, who was nearly strong enough to break his bones with a single strike. Rainbow flew over him, sending at him another barrage of attacks. He dodged under the first strike, turning around to block another with his arm. Rainbow didn’t expect this fight to be an easy one. For starters compared to her Revan was a walking tank, while she was rather soft in comparison. That was not to say that she wasn’t sure about her victory, of course. It was just a matter of time. But at the same time she knew that if she won’t break through Revan’s stonewall defense fast enough, she’s going to get tired, and she knew that Revan was also aware of that. He blocked another of her kicks, grabbing her leg and throwing her away. She regained stability in the air and flew back to him, sliding between his legs and delivering a kick to his ass. He lost his balance, and Rainbow flew up, falling down on him with her hoof pointed down. Revan rolled away, and as Rainbow’s hoof landed on the ground, he kicked her so hard she flew to the edge of the ring. This was however not enough to break her will to win, and soon enough she was back to kicking and hitting. She turned up the speed, surprising Revan in the result. She managed to get a good hit at his side, followed by a kick in the stomach. It didn’t made him fall this time, but he took a step back from her. Rainbow used this to press her offense, forcing Revan to fall back. She now had him where she wanted, and increased her speed even more, despite her body protesting. She had to finish this now. However, she unintentionally walked into a trap. Just when she was sure about her victory, Revan wrapped his arm around her hoof, locking it in place as he headbutted her. She didn’t let that bother her, and prepared herself to continue the attack. But her attempt was stopped when she was kicked in the chest by Revan. She was sent flying and once she landed she rolled on the ground few times. Rainbow got up on her hooves with surprising difficulty. It was that moment when she realized just how tired she was. Her muscles felt like they were in fire, begging her to let go. She looked at Revan who was slowly closing in. All her attacks left his arms visibly bruised and his lip was bleeding, and even despite panting almost as much as she, he was holding up much better. She forced herself to get up and using all strength she could muster, charged again. With a scream, she smashed her hooves into him. Her attacks were now much weaker and slower than before, and Revan blocked them all without any problems. Rainbow however, had no intention in giving up, and kept pushing her body to its limits despite the pain. Damn it, she’d rather have a heart attack then give up. Revan noticed and decided to press a offense of his own. After he sidestepped another attack, he punched Rainbow in the back of her head, making her fall on the ground. She got up, quick enough to avoid his second punch. She jumped on his back, but before she could do anything more, he hit her side with his elbow. She fell on the ground again, but this time Revan pinned her down before she managed to get up. She managed to kick him off with her back legs, but this was all she had. She couldn’t do anything more, even bring herself to get up. She just lied there, panting like she never had before. She saw the face of Nurse Red Heart, she said something to her, but she couldn’t hear anything over the crowd cheering. Revan also walked over to her, also panting like mad, but holding up un his legs. He reached out his hand to her. “Come on, let’s get you up.” Part of her wanted to let him lift her up, but the other, much bigger part of her was set on saving the last pieces of dignity she had left. She pushed Revan’s hand away and got up herself. She pushed her way through the crowd, walking away with her head down. “’I think you really hurt her ego.” Red Heart said. “Probably. I’ll go talk to her.” He was about to go after her, but Red stopped him. “You’ll go, but first I’ll see what contrition you’re in.” She turned to another nurse, stallion with yellow, messy mane and orange coat, his cute mark was a white pigeon with a red cross. “Go to her.” He nodded and immediately run after blue Pegasus. Red hadn’t held him there for long, save for bruised arms he was alright. He immediately went after Rainbow, with Mischief following her scent. Eventually, they reached the bar owned by a mare called Barry Punch. Just as he was about to walk in, the nurse sent after Rainbow went out of the bar. He was having trouble with walking straight, and had a bruised eye. “I… I think she’s fine…” He said to Revan and walked away, swinging from one side to the other. Ignoring this, Revan walked in. There weren’t many ponies in the bar, but those who were focused on him as he walked in. With one exception -rainbow haired Pegasus sitting across the room. He walked over to her and sat on the chair. “And what are you doing here?” She said. “Wondering why did you hit that nurse, he was just trying to help.” “Well, apparently I don’t need any. Now that you know you can leave too.” She took a long sip of the cider. Revan didn’t answer. He turned to the barmaid and said. “You have vodka?” She nodded and purred him a glass. “What do you think you’re doing?” Rainbow said. “Getting drunk with a friend, it’s been a while since I’ve done that.” He drunk the shot and asked the barmaid for more. “That and I’d like to know why are you so mad.” Rainbow turned to her cider and took another sip. “Because I hate losing.” “Come on, there must be more to it than that.” “I don’t want to talk about it.” She replied after a moment of hesitation. “Alright, so let’s get drink about it.” Many hours later… “…And I *HICCUP* told her to buck herself*HICUP*. And kicked her butt.” Rainbow said as she and Revan walked through the empty streets of Ponyville at night. “I kutfa dobrze!” Her replied, almost losing his balance. “Tempa kutfa se zasłużyła *HICCUP*.” „Eh, could you stop with this bull*HICCUP*shit! I don’t know what yer talking!” Revan smiled. ♪”Wąską cieżką przez kerbery, zapierdala Huckerlbery, ♪ ‘Dokąd biegniesz mój malutki?’- Wódki, szukam wódki! Hej ha wypijmy piwa! Hej ha wypijmy piwa!

Revan laughed at her. “You know,” He begun as he helped her get up “you’re a fucking dumbass, but I fucking love you! Like, a fucking sister.” “Oh, I love you too. Come here brother!” The two hugged for a good minute before Rainbow spoke out again. “Hey bro?” “What?” “What do you think about incest?”
