The REAL Level 14

M0re Than Gam3rs

Level 14

I’ll Have Halo 4 With A Side of Pony Plot Please.

Friday night....

The moon was lifted. The night sparkled and the sky was clear of any black clouds, letting the moon’s glowing light spread across Equestria. The dark veil would cover its citizens and watch as lovers and friends engage in their nightly activities.

Tonight was simply a beautiful night. Ponies would look up at it and admire the sea of cosmos with wonder and tell themselves that their Princess of the Night had outdone herself and possibly wondering what she thought of her own work.

What did Princess Luna think of this beautiful night?

“Where the flying buck is my Halo hoodie?!!!!”

Princess Luna tore her room upside down and sideways looking for her treasured apparel that had Master Chief’s helmet displayed on the chest with two battle rifles crossed behind it. Not only that, it had a hood that could be zipped up over the head and made to look like the very helmet that the iconic hero wore.

“C’mon! Where is it???” she said as she flung her bed to the other side of her room and began to scan the floor underneath it.

Tonight was too important NOT to have it. Despite the events of yesterday and dealing with an abundance of questions in her court today about it and why she had bags of ice strapped to her flanks, there was no way in Equestria, Tartarus, and whatever else that she could think of that she was missing the midnight launch of Halo 4.

For too long she waited for that game and this hoodie that she wanted to wear to it was not going to stop her. She was beginning to resolve that if it didn’t turn up here within the next few seconds, then she was going to see a certain fashionista to make one for her, despite the possibility that the unicorn might be sleeping.

She put her bed back in place and began going through her closet frantically.

“It has to be here! By my sister’s beard, this is ridiculous!”

She had to have that hoodie. Luna didn’t want to show up to a Halo launch without any way of showing how much she adored the series and be the only one of her friends who didn’t show any love for it.

Tia...Did she take it???

But that couldn’t be. Celestia had been gone all day doing something concerning political relations with the gryphon kingdom and Luna had placed all her guards around her chambers to make sure that Celestia didn’t get in somehow. Luna couldn’t say she wasn’t grateful that her big sister had been gone all day.

After last night’s ‘punishment’ she could only imagine how awkward it would be to see Tia and such. The fact that her sister actually had her bound, gagged and whipped was disturbing enough, but what was more disturbing to Luna was that she actually enjoyed it. Now it wasn’t because she had something for her sister, that was just gross and taboo, but the image of Derpy doing it to her...

Celestia didn’t really help quell that image though. During her pleasurable beating, Celestia said things that were too dirty to even recall but she said it in Derpy’s voice. Again though, she didn’t want to recall last night and put it in her subconscious and continued on with her business as if it never happened.

It’s not here! Son of a whorse, where did I put it?!!

Her body and mind were going into a panic. Her thoughts began to run rampant.

If I don’t have my hoodie, then what?! Maybe...maybe I could go see Rarity and have her make one for me...

She looked over to the clock.

10:45 P.M.

Damnit! Not enough time....maybe I could make a battle rifle out Tia’s dildo’s...

She shuddered at such a nasty thought but she would be damned if she was going to this launch as just some regular bystander and gamer. She was no ordinary gamer.

Luna's Tone that has no type of relevance.

Luna quickly summoned her phone towards her to see what pony was calling her amid the chaos that was her room now.

Incoming call: Muffin

Luna slightly blushed seeing that she had changed Derpy’s name in her contact list to muffin. It wasn’t because of the fact that Derpy had an obsession with the goods but something much more sinful.

In her small ‘session’ with herself last night on her sister’s bed, she had recalled calling out the words ‘my muffin’ in reference to Derpy. It was sappy, she knew it, but she liked it... a lot.

She answered the phone.

“Hello Derpy,” Luna said in a faked cheery tone, trying to hide the panic she was going through.

“Hey Luna! Where are you? We’ve all been here since ten,” Derpy said loudly over the many voices that Luna heard in the background.

“I’m just looking for my Halo hoodie and I can’t seem to find it,” she replied, now feeling her eye beginning to twitch, still trying to figure out where the hell it could be.

“Oh, I have it with me. Remember a few weeks ago you left it at my place so you wouldn’t misplace it for tonight?”

“What?” Luna said flatly.

“Yeah, got it right here in my bag for when you get here. You’re coming right?”

Luna slapped her hoof on her face. She couldn’t believe that she had forgotten that important little detail.

“Luna? You there?” Derpy asked.

“Yeah yeah! I’m here, it’s just I literally tore my room upside down trying to find that and I kinda feel a bit stupid for not remembering that I left it with you.”

Derpy laughed a bit over the phone.

“Well don’t worry, I got it. You need to get on over here quick though because ponies are lining up and this place is getting packed. I don’t know-”

“Hell yeah it’s getting packed! Tell her to get her ass on over here!” a voice yelled in the background.

“Is that Vinyl?” Luna asked, “Are all our friends already there?”

“Yeah. It’s me, Vinyl, Lyra and Bon Bon, Berry, and uhh..” Derpy quieted her voice a bit and whispered into the phone, “And her weird friend. The one that talks weird.”

Perro.

Luna face-hoofed herself once again. She completely forgotten that she was supposed to talk to him today over Live but tonight’s event had been completely wiped that notion away. Then again, she had second thoughts about going to a complete stranger about her personal life. Maybe it was best that she had forgotten.

“What about Trixie? Isn’t she coming?”

“No. Berry tried calling her a few times but she hasn’t answered. I think she’s still upset about last week with the whole Twilight thing,” Derpy said.

Luna had a feeling that her friend didn’t really regret that Trixie wasn’t showing up. It was no secret that Derpy had a passionate dislike for the unicorn.

“Well maybe I can get a hold of her. When’s the last time anypony heard from her?”

“I can ask Berry since she’s really the only one who talks to her. Just a minute...”

There was a silence on the phone for a few seconds until she heard her friends voice calling out for the drunk pony.

“Berry?”

“What” she heard the slurred voice yell back in the background.

“When’s the last time you spoke to Trixie?”

“The hells ifsh I know! She cans go sucksh herself.”

“Apparently she’s sucking herself,” Derpy said in a half sarcastic and amused tone.

Luna couldn’t help but feel a bit concerned for the magician. She was sure that Trixie was alright and well but Trixie did seem a bit upset after last Saturday night, but the unicorn would have said something by now, as was her nature. Trixie might’ve been annoying, conceited, and many other things, but she had no problem voicing her thoughts and opinions. If she was truly angry or something was wrong with her, she would definitely have said something by now.

She’s probably fine. Just a little butthurt still.

“So when are you getting here Luna?” Derpy asked once again.

Luna brought herself back to the present and away from her concern for the silver-maned mare.

“Oh yeah! I’ll be there in a few.”

“Okay, see you soon.”

“Yeah, see you in a little bit.”

With that, Luna hung up her phone and turned to the disaster of her room. Sheets were thrown across the floor, gaming accessories littered her desk, and even her very games were no longer in alphabetical order on her shelves.

I should really clean this up...

She didn’t like having a messy room and wasn’t one to simply leave it that way. Luna liked her room to be presentable and in order. She had to have it be that way considering that she always had Derpy come over on Saturdays and that she could never find anything when her room was a disaster.

...but it can wait. Derpy is waiting for me.

But it seemed Halo 4 and Derpy was a bit more important right now.

Could you really blame her though?

***

“Hey Luna,” Derpy greeted with a smile as the alicorn landed gracefully beside her, “How was the flight here?”

Derpy handed the hoodie that had eluded Luna back at Canterlot and the princess put it on with a quickness.

“It was enjoyable my friend,” Luna replied after sticking her head through the hole of the hoodie.

She admired the small mare and saw that Derpy was wearing a replica Covenant Carbine strapped around her back along with a small belt around her waist with small blue balls on them.

“What the hay is that?” Luna asked, not ever seeing this new accessory.

“Oh this?” Derpy said, seeing that Luna was pointing at the belt, “Do you want to get in between my legs?”

Luna’s eyes went wide and looked at Derpy with shock.

“What did you say??”

“I said do you want to see it,” Derpy replied, a bit confused of what Luna could’ve possibly thought she said.

“Oh.” Luna felt her cheeks heat up out of embarrassment as she realized that her mind was playing tricks on her.

Damnit! Now I’m not only thinking dirty stuff, I’m hearing it! It’s already bad enough I clopped! I don’t need this! Shut up brain!

No, replied her brain.

Luna simply grimaced inside but she didn’t show any sign to her inner workings.

“Soooo, did you want to see it?” Derpy asked again but before Luna could give her answer, she was interrupted by a purple mare that reeked of cider.

“Heysh princess!” Berry Punch yelled in the alicorn’s ear, making Luna cringe, “Ish abouts time you gots yoursh shexy shelf here.”

The mare hiccuped and took another gulp of the bottle she held in her hoof.

“It’s nice to see you too Berry,” Luna replied while rubbing her ringing ear.

“You know you can’t take that into the store right Berry? There’s no alcohol allowed,” Derpy said in her polite manner.

“You know that won’t stop her,” a voice said from behind the trio. They all turned to the infamous couple that were Lyra and Bon Bon who both wore matching dirt green caps with UNSC labeled on them.

“Pleash,” Berry Punch said as she waved her hoof nonchalantly at the couple, “Let thems try to take my ciders away. I’lls beat their asses and rape them with my bottles,” she proclaimed proudly as she held up her bottle of cider in the air and staggered a bit.

“Uhhh yeah...let’s not let it get that far,” Derpy suggested with a sheepish smile.

Luna agreed. The last thing they needed was a raging drunk going in and destroying everypony for taking her alcohol...and raping them with a bottle.

“Hey Derps. I see the princess finally got here,” said Vinyl Scratch in her regular DJ attire, “About flippin’ time too. I thought she was bailing out on us for a moment.”

Luna smiled. “Now you know I wouldn’t miss this for anything. I’ve been waiting for this game to come out forever now.”

“Same with everypony else,” Vinyl laughed as she pointed out to the immense line that stood behind them. “I can’t tell you how hard it was just trying to hold you a spot. Some ponies were raging pretty hard about it.”

Oh..great.

She was grateful that her friends held a place for her in the front of the line, but she didn’t want it to be at the expense of others.

“Um, maybe I should go to the back then so we don’t piss anymore-”

“Nah, forget them princess,” Lyra said, standing next to her marefriend, “Bon Bon and I have been here since last night so since you’re our friend, you’ve been here with us the whole time as far as I’m concerned.”

Luna couldn’t help but conform to this twisted logic.

“So how was your day Luna? Did anypony talk about the..” the grey pegasus began to snicker, “Ice on your butt?”

Luna deadpanned inside. That was the last thing she wanted to talk about now. In all actuality, this was something she didn’t want to talk about ever.

“Wait what?” Vinyl interjected and looked at Luna with her iconic shades, “Why did you have ice on your butt?”

“I really don’t want to talk-”

“Princessh Luna been a naughtys pony huh?” Berry Punch joined in and staggered over to the princess, throwing her foreleg across the back of Luna’s neck.

“Hash you been gettings the sexshy times?”

Immediately Luna’s mind went back to last night and her sinful activity she engaged in. Her mind travelled to how good it felt to have such relief and the fantasy that played in her head while she was doing it.

Not exactly....

“Look girls, I rather not get into specifics about it okay? Just had a...small spill,” she said as she looked at Derpy and gave her a pleading look.

Derpy chuckled softly and vouched for her princess.

“Yeah, she just fell on her bum was all. At least that’s what she told me over the phone this morning.”

“That sucks. Falling on your ass is not the best feeling, I know that. It’s like when I had this stallion over and he put his thing right in my-”

“Vinyl! Please don’t tell that story again,” Bon Bon cried in shock and disgust, “That was a bit too much the first time you told it.”

“Wait what?” Derpy said with innocence, “What story? What happened?”

Bon Bon, Lyra, and even Berry Punch all looked at her with looks of ‘You don’t wanna know.’

Luna was a bit lost but this was not anything new. Her little group of friends was a very unique bunch and spoke about things that most mare’s would never discuss in public.

“Hola Princessa Luna,” a lower voice now said and a light brown stallion appeared from behind the DJ.

What the buck?

This stallion was short in stature compared to many stallions she had seen in her time. His mane was short and black along with his tail and he wore a small hoodie with some type of graffiti design on it.

But this wasn’t what had the alicorn completely creeped out.

She couldn’t see his facial features due to him wearing some creepy-ass mask that had some type of mustache on it and smiled oddly.

“Uhhh hello Perro?” she said, hoping to her stars this wasn’t Vinyl’s little friend.

“Oh hey Perro, you get the nachos I wanted?” Vinyl now asked, not seeming to be one bit disturbed by this freak.

Oh wow...it is him.

“Si. Queso extra como pediste (Yeah. Extra cheese like you asked).” he replied to the DJ.

Vinly smiled wide and swiped the nachos from his hoof and ate them like some type of ravenous predator.

“Thanks man,” Vinyl tried to say as she munched down on her nachos.

“See,” Derpy whispered beside Luna,” I told you he’s weird.”

“Yeah, the mask is kind of creeping me out,” Luna said, agreeing with her small friend.

“Hey guys, ten more minutes until Halo 4 launches!” a pony in a PonyStop uniform announced, “Please make sure you have your receipts ready!”

Finally!

Luna summoned her receipt in front of her and looked it over. Now as a hardcore player and lover of the Halo series, she wasn’t one to go and just get the bare minimum. Oh no, Luna had ordered the whole enchilada, so to speak. She had ordered the Halo 4 xbox and everything that came with it. Armor skins, map pass, weapon skins, and even all the specializations.

Derpy and the rest of the group followed suit and pulled out their receipts also.

“Time needs to goes faster,” Berry Punch declared as she threw her now empty bottle onto the ground, “I needsh to get to the bar damnit.”

Luna simply shook her head with a small smile. She was grateful that her held-in excitement and her friends little conversations were keeping her mind and eyes from wandering over to the grey pegasus that stood beside her. The last thing she needed was to get all hot and bothered again and have the urge to do, well, that.


“So are you all going to be on playing it tonight?” Lyra asked as she tried to help their drunken friend from falling for a moment.

“I am!” Derpy cheered.

“I think it’s pretty obvious with me,” Luna said with a smirk.

“Same here,”Vinyl said as she wiped cheese sauce from her mouth. The mare looked over to her DJ friend, “What about you Perro? I would love to whip your ass in some Halo.”

The stallion shook his head.

“No. Yo veo esta noche pony (No, I’m seeing some pony tonight).”

“I still don’t get what he’s saying,” Derpy said, still confused as ever to what crazy language this weirdo was speaking.

“He said he’s seeing somepony tonight. In other words, no.” Vinyl said to the confused mailmare.

“Seeing somepony?” Luna now said.

“Ooo, who?” Bon Bon and Lyra said in unison, being a pair of nosy mares.

“Yeah how about you tell us,” Vinyl added with a sly grin,”What legs are you getting in between?”

“Oh my gosh Vinyl, why do you think everypony wants to just buck each other all the time?” Lyra asked in annoyance.

“I wants to buck everypony!” Berry Punch yelled and slurred loudly, making some ponies turn to her with faces of disgust and confusion, though there were a few that showed questionable interest.

“Uhhh Berry, maybe you should keep your voice down please,” Luna said with blushed cheeks of embarrassment.

But Berry was lost in her own drunken stupor and disregarded the alicorn’s simple request.

“C’mon!” she yelled even more within the crowd, “Who wantsh some of this?!”

Berry Punch began waving her rump in the air and showing off certain parts that were not meant for public eyes.

“Bahahaha!” Vinyl wailed and fell to the ground. holding her gut from pain-wrenching laughter and forgetting her little interrogation with her friend.

Lyra and Bon Bon simply looked at each other with foalish smiles, knowing that what their drunk friend was doing was something very inappropriate.

Derpy simply looked away with violent red cheeks while Luna did the same and looked down at her friend.

“I never should have brought her with us. I knew she would be way too drunk to keep herself in control,” Derpy whispered in extreme embarrassment and maybe a bit of amusement.

“When isn’t she ever drunk though?” Luna asked with a blush of her own.

Derpy couldn’t help but let a weak smile spread across her face.

“Good point. Gosh, imagine if that was me...I would be too embarrassed to come out of my own house after doing something like that.”

Yeah...Derpy waving her rump in front of you...presenting herself for your taking, Luna.

Luna’s heart went into overdrive as soon as her damned little voice began to talk to her and put such images in her head. Her eyes now began to slowly travel down Derpy’s body and to her flank imprinted with bubbles. Her mind began to race again with images and ideas of what she would do to such a simple body part; that detested but pleasurable primal hunger began to fill her again.

No! I’m not like this! She’s not like that!

But the voice would not relent.

Oh c’mon Luna. You know you want that and you know you can have your way with her. She won’t say no. Go ahead and tell her what you want.

It was torture but tempting all at the same time. She wanted this dirty voice out of her head but it’s words were heavy with lust and wanting. This mare that stood blushing in front of her, so unaware of her detested desires.

No! I came to get my game and play. That is it! Not here to be thinking about that stuff! Now leave me alone!

“Uh oh,” Derpy said as she turned away from Luna and looked over to Berry Punch and some stallions in uniform around her but the princess’ focus was elsewhere.

Oh no! Don’t look, don’t look!

But she did. Derpy had unwittingly made the mistake of turning her back to Luna to see what was going on with Berry and now had her rump turned towards her. Luna’s eyes scanned it lustfully and the fire of wanted began to run a blaze within the alicorn.

The world began to black out around her and all that she could see now was Derpy in front of her and her bottom. Tunnel vision began to set in and she began to involuntarily raise her hoof and reach out to the grey mare’s backside.

Why deny your desires Luna? Show her how much she means to you.

Her silver hoof got closer and closer to Derpy’s rump. It was wrong, she knew this, but this primal, powerful hunger demanded that she touch this mare and tell her how much she wanted...no...needed her.

“Ma'am we’re going to have to escort you off the premises,” one of the stallions said from afar to a presenting Berry Punch.

“No! Wait!” Derpy called to them and began trotting toward them, making Luna snap out of her admiration of pony plot.

Her senses came back to reality and the world around her was back. Excited ponies talking and waiting, combined with the laughing of a still hysterical unicorn. Luna quickly realized what she was so close to do doing and quickly looked around to see if anypony had caught her almost doing such a dastardly act. Vinyl was still on the ground laughing her flank off, Perro was only looking over to at the small situation that was occurring with the purple drunk, but Lyra and Bon Bon were looking straight over to her with shocked expressions.

Oh no! They saw what....SHIT!

Lyra and Bon Bon simply stood and stared at Luna with wide eyes and mouths agape. Without thinking, Luna quickly went over to the duo.

“Please tell me you didn’t see that,” Luna said in a sort of loud hushed tone of worry.

“Princess Luna,” Lyra began, still trying to comprehend what she had just witnessed, “Were you going...” she trailed off but Bon Bon finished for her.

“Are you into Derpy like that??”

“No! I mean...I don’t know what just happened, I swear!” Luna pleaded with the couple.

The two simply stood in silence, not knowing what to really say until Lyra broke it.

“You have the hots for Derpy don’t you?”

“I don’t know!” Luna admitted as she looked back at the blonde mare that was trying to help out Berry from and to make sure that she somehow didn’t walk into this awkward conversation of theirs.

“Look, please don’t say anything to Derpy,” Luna pleaded with the two, “She’ll think I’m some perv or something.”

Bon Bon and Lyra simply looked at each other and then back at Luna with questionable smiles.

“We don’t think you’re a perv Luna. You should have seen us two before we got together,” Lyra said, trying to quell the princess’ worry.

“Wait what?” Luna asked. She had always seen these two as a couple. When were they never together?

“Yeah, I remember when I would have all those dirty thoughts about you and what you could do with a lyre,” Bon Bon added with a laugh.

Lyra simply looked at her with a playful grin and turned back to Luna.

“Princess Luna, is it okay if I ask you something concerning our dear Derpy?”

Luna looked back at her blonde friend who now had Berry the drunken mare using her as a crutch to walk while she talked to the ponies in uniform. In all honesty, she was afraid of the question that Lyra wanted to ask, for she had an idea what it would be.

Are you in love with Derpy?

This was still a question that she couldn’t even yet answer, though one thing was certain. Back a week ago she would be able to easily say no but now, she didn’t know if she could really say that she wasn’t.

“Sure,” Luna replied with hesitation.

“Have you been feeling different towards Derpy? Like, thoughts that you usually never had before? Maybe...intimate thoughts?”

Well, it wasn’t the question she thought was coming but she simply saw it as a twisting of words, but then again, maybe by answering such a question, she could get help for whatever was going on with her.Lyra and Bon Bon knew what love was obviously and maybe they had some type of remedy to quiet these thoughts and feelings within her.

Luna lowered her head and quietly gave her answer.

“Sort of.”

She was supposed to be enjoying being here and jumping up and down excitedly for this game she was waiting for but instead, here she was staring at her friends plot earlier and now talking to the two mares that had caught her and seemingly could help her with her nagging problem of lust and desire.

Lyra brought her face close to Bon Bon’s ear and began to whisper something. Bon Bon then looked at Lyra with a smile and nodded.

“Princess?” Lyra said. Luna lifted her head and looked at the unicorn.

“Would you like to come over to our house after this and maybe talk about what’s going on with you?”

Luna thought about this proposal for a moment. If she went to their house, she wouldn’t be able to play Halo 4 right after she got it, and she was planning to pwn some noobs in it but she wasn’t sure if she even could with the state of mind she was in. Who knows? What if she started playing but could only focus on the things she wanted to do to Derpy? And what about this nagging and detested little voice in her head that tried to encourage such notions? Was she really in the position to deny an offer that could possibly be her salvation from these lustful thoughts and this feeling of uncontrollable want?

She resolved and gave her answer.

“I think that would be nice just...if we are going to talk about what’s going on with me...you won’t tell Derpy right? About any of it?”

Bon Bon quelled that worry quickly.

“Of course not. Everything we talk about will only be between you and us. It’s all confidential.”

That was a relief. Luna thought more about the prospect of finally talking to somepony about all this, and she was actually beginning to feel a bit better about it. Lyra and Bon Bon were a couple and they loved each other. Who better than to help her sort her feelings out then? They would surely have an answer for all this and if they didn’t, then there really was no hope for the alicorn.

“Okay...then I’ll come over after we’re done here. Thanks guys,” Luna said with humility. When they should have scorned her and condemned for what she was about to Derpy earlier, instead they offered help and understanding.

“Oh sweet Celestia, my sides,” Vinyl said as she came from behind Luna, wiping tears away from her face. “So what are you all talking about huh?”


“Oh nothing, just telling the princess how excited we are for Halo 4 is all,” Bon Bon lied with a very convincing smile.

Vinyl looked over to Luna.

“Yeah I feel that. I’m a bit surprised at you princess.”

Luna’s heart dropped and a sudden fear rose within her. What did the DJ mean by that? Did she see too what she almost had done earlier?

“Uhh, why is that Vinyl?” Luna asked with a coy smile.

“Well seeing how excited you were when it was announced and not even near being out, I would have thought you would’ve been basically making a mess right now over it.”

“Really Vinyl?” Bon Bon scorned, “More of that sexual crap?”

“Hey! Get off my back okay? If I have to listen to you two moan and scream each other’s names for three night’s in a row, then I’m sure you can handle my shit.”

Lyra blushed and narrowed her eyes at the DJ.

“That was three months ago Vinyl and we already apologized for that...”

Vinyl simply waved her hoof at her and brought her attention back to Luna.

“So what’s going with you? I thought you’d be more excited than what you're looking like now.”

There were many things going on with her. Too many things to even count. It was everything but excitement right now and she hated it. Vinyl was completely right about how she should be acting right now. Luna should be pacing back and forth, impatient and cursing under her breath for this game to come out and how she just wanted to get her stuff so she could go play ASAP. Hell, maybe Vinyl was right about how she should be having wet messes right now over such an event but instead, her mind was clouded and occupied with Derpy and why she was now having all these pervy thoughts and desires for her best friend.

“I’m excited,” Luna said in the fakest excited tone she could give, “Just waiting is killing me right now is all.”

Vinyl accepted this answer with a wicked smile.

“Well, we could always get those paintball guns of yours like we did to get those pic-” but Luna immediately shut Vinyl's mouth with her hoof.

“Yeahhhhh! Let’s not do that okay?” Luna hastily said.

“Okay girls, I got our dear drunk friend here.”

The group turned their attention to Derpy who was now holding up Berry Punch and trying to keep the mare from falling over.

“So what was all that about Derpy?” Bon Bon asked.

Derpy rolled her crossed eyes.

“It was security and they were going to escort her and probably put her in holding for showing off her filly parts if I hadn’t promised them I would keep her under control. Isn’t that right Berry?”

Berry simply looked over to the grey mare and hiccuped.

“Thosh security stallions whatever's totally wanted to tap this.”

“Damn right Berry! I would totally tap that drunk ass of yours,” Vinyl laughed as she took Luna’s hoof away from her mouth.

There must be a reason these two get along so well.... Luna thought with sarcasm.

“I’m sure they did Berry but I think that you need to go home and get some rest. Just give me your receipt and I’ll pick up your copy for you okay?” Derpy insisted.

“Ish go to the bar first?” the purple mare asked as her eyes began to droop down.

“Here Derps, I’ll take her home,” Vinyl said as went up and put Berry’s foreleg over her shoulder and began to hold the mare up.

“Hey Perro!” she called out.

“Hmm?” he replied though he seemed to keep his distance from the DJ, maybe to avoid another interrogation.

“Take my receipt and get my copy for me will ya? Just bring it to me tomorrow before you go to Manehatten.”

The stallion nodded and Vinyl summoned her receipt with her magic and levitated the small paper over to him.

“I’ll see you all later. Gonna get this sexual deviant home,” Vinyl chuckled.

Lyra and Bon Bon simply face-hoofed at the same time while Luna and Derpy simply waved goodbye to the unique musician.

“So besides all that, these guys need to hurry up and open these doors. I’m ready to get down on some Spartan Ops,” Derpy said as she flapped her wings a little bit.

It seems Derpy’s wish was going to be answered.

“Bueno, no mires ahora, pero estamos abriendo las puertas (Well, don’t look now, but they’re opening the doors).”

The small group of friends looked at him oddly, seeing that now that Vinyl was gone, they didn’t understand what the hay he was saying, all for the exception of Luna of course, but they soon realized what he was talking about as soon as they saw the three glass doors open in front of them. The doors began to open; it was like the very gates of hayven being unlocked and ponies began to cheer.

A mare came out with a megaphone and began to speak.

“Okay everypony, please listen! We need you all to make three lines for us so we can make this smooth and quick for all you. I know how much you all want to get back home and get it on with your xbox so please listen. If you are getting the standard copy of Halo 4, please make a line at the left door.”

Ponies began to shuffle and scurry as they followed the employee’s directions.

“Well, that’s us,” Lyra said to Bon Bon with a smile. The couple began to trot over to their respective line and waved at the them.

“See you guys online,” Lyra called out as they made their way to the giant line that was forming but the mare looked over to Luna and winked at her. Luna simply smiled nervously at her and waved back.

“See you later Lyra. Bon Bon!” Derpy called out back to them.

The employee began to speak again.

“If you have ordered the limited edition of Halo 4, please make a line at the right door!”

Perro began to make his way to that line.

“Well, guess I’m going with the creepy guy,” Derpy whispered with a bit of disdain.

“Wait what? Luna asked, a bit shocked from what she was hearing, “I thought you got the xbox bundle too?”

Derpy looked up to her with those beautiful blonde eyes of hers, making Luna suppress with all her willpower the images that wanted to take hold of her mind.

“No, too many bits for me. I went and got the limited edition. As long as I get those cool armor skins, I’m happy,” she said with a grin.

“Of course,” Luna said with a bit of nervousness of what her mind was trying to do to her, “Well, you better get in line before it’s too late my friend.”

Derpy thankfully agreed and wasted no time.

“Yeah. I’ll see you online later tonight right?” Derpy asked with hope.

“Of course,” Luna simply replied, “Just I might be a bit before I am is all. Have to deal with...”

Deal with how much you want this mare Luna?Maybe dealing with yourself about denying what you already know to be true?

“...some royal matters,” Luna said, trying to ignore her mental torture.

“Alright then. Maybe I can get to a higher rank than you and stay up there for once,” Derpy laughed.

Luna mimicked her laugh but she wasn’t really in the mood for such jestering right now.

“You know I can’t let that happen.”

Derpy rolled her eyes playfully.

“I know Luna. Well, I’m off. I’m just going to go get in that line. Talk to you later alright?”

Luna nodded.

“Yep, see you on Live.”

Derpy nodded back and trotted over to her respective line. Luna wanted to watch her friend go but she dared not risk what happened earlier. She no longer trusted her own eyes and simply just stared off into space while the employee began to give directions again over her megaphone.

“Alright, last but not least, if you have ordered the Halo 4 Limited Edition Xbox, please make a line at the center door. You guys will be going in first so please make a quick and orderly line! Thanks!”

That’s me...

Luna brought her receipt to her face and read over the contents; Premium weapon and armor skins, early unlocks to specializations, avatar items (not that she cared much for them), limited edition of Halo 4, and of course the badass xbox...so why was she now looking at this and not getting that excitement she always got when a new game came out?

Granted, she still wanted this game but this was not the usual feeling she would get at such events. She would be all over the place and drooling by now but instead she felt underwhelmed by all this.

Derpy...

But when she would look at Derpy, that excitement that was focused on games and such were now being brought forth not by items, but by this mare that she still didn’t dare look at over in the other line. She knew she wasn’t losing her passion of gaming and wouldn’t give it up for anything but something was definitely not right here.

Hopefully Lyra and Bon Bon can expel all of this outta me somehow...

She could only hope right? Luna only hoped that Lyra and Bon Bon could somehow explain what was going on with her and be able to help her be rid of it so that she may go back to the normalcy she had with Derpy before last week.

Vinyl knows that there’s pictures, my sister thinks I want to buck Derpy into the next century, and now Lyra and Bon Bon almost saw me basically grab her ass! I have to stop this before everypony and their mother hears about all this.

Luna couldn’t have anymore ponies thinking she had something for Derpy when she didn’t even know if she did or not. It had to end and there was only one way to do it.



She needed to know once and for all the answer to the sacred and dreaded question that plagued her for what seemed like eternity.


Did Princess Luna love Derpy Hooves?


Tonight, she would find out the answer.
