Nikolai jerked forward from his day dream. He was sweating head to toe. Twilight was on deck looking at the distant lands. Nikolai looked at the territory map and saw that his premonition was true. Nikolai turned the ship around to head back home. Twilight came into the cabin.
"Why are we turning back. And why are you sweating?"
"We should head back home because It's going to get dark out and the weather is unpredictable at night."
"Oh, okay." Twilight sat in the co-pilot seat. Nikolai knew what she was gonna ask already.
"Yes, I am fine with you loving me."
"How did you know that I was going to ask that?"
"Lets call it a premonition."
Nikolai got up and hugged Twilight, and of course she embraced it. Nikolai sat down and on queue she lightly wrapped her arms around Nikolai's chest. Nikolai saw the tanks in enemy territory, they hadn't even detected him. Nikolai flew on back to the castle. Twilight could see all sorts of beasts down below. Nikolai got up out of his chair, went out the cabin, and leaned over the railings, thinking. Twilight went out of the cabin and next to Nikolai. The night began to get colder. Twilight could see her breath. Whatever stress Nikolai had is gone, he always felt better when its cold out. Even with the flight suit, Twilight was starting to get cold.
"Hey, its getting pretty cold out. Does seasons even exist here?"
"They do, but from the conflict going on around us. It's cause what i think is called a windigo."
"Yeah, we had that in our world, it was just 3 of us in a conflict that caused it. It's hard to imagine a whole world."
"Well, you don't have to imagine that now"
"I suppose."
The airship is near the castle. Nikolai goes below deck and grabs a flag and goes back above deck. Nikolai waves the flag to the guards on the wall and they wave a green flag.
"What's that for?"
"Flag signals, communicate long range."
"That's smart."
The airship makes its way into the city, Nikolai gets back in pilots seat and docks in at home. Nikolai and Twilight get off ad go into the living room. Nikolai is glad that his premonition wasn't real. Twilight sits on the couch, obviously tired. Nikolai looked at a clock on the wall and saw that it was 10:30 pm. It was about time to get a full nights sleep without getting attacked or anything.
"Hey Twilight, i'm going to bed, if you want you can sleep in the guest bedroom, or you can sleep with me."
"I'll sleep with you."
Nikolai went upstairs into the master bedroom, the bed was king sized with purple sheets and a couple off white pillows. Nikolai got into bed on the right side of it, and Twilight got in on the left, she snuggled up to Nikolai and fell asleep fast. Nikolai stayed up a for a little and thunk about the stuff and has been going on.
'Wow, is this going to be my life? I never thought that I would be a person to settle in with someone, especially from another universe, or even dimension. I'll have to train her in magic and melee combat. This is going to be tough, but worth the pain. And I hope that the other Nikolai pisses off tonight, I really don't want to deal with him.'
And just like that Nikolai fell asleep with Twilight in his arms. Tomorrow will be a long day.
