After a cold shower, made icy with my magic, I get dressed as quickly as possible. Once I'm done I run out of my room and make it down stairs, where I pause to glare at Lupus, who's just sitting there, wagging his tail. I turn and run out the door at break neck speeds, trying my best to get anywhere as fast as possible. I need to get somewhere I can hide... Twilight should be able to help! I make a be line for Twilight's, running as if my life depended on it. When I make it to her place I slide to a stop in front of her door and start pounding on it. I hit it harder and harder, waking the neighbors and making a dog somewhere start to howl.

"YES! What do you need!" Twilight yells as she swings the door open. "Miles? It's six in the..."

"I NEED YOUR HELP!" I yell as I run into her place and look around for anything I can hide in.

"What are you..."

"LUNA'S IN ESTROUS AND SHE DID THE NAUGHTY TOUCH BUT HAD TO GO RAISE THE MOON OR SUN OR WHATEVER, SO I RAN AND NOW I NEED TO HIDE!" I yell as I frantically try run around the room, trying to find anything I can hide in. I finally make it to the closet where I dive in and slam the door shut the door as I bury myself under all of the cushions. I curl into a ball and hold onto myself... that was too close. I almost fucked her... I almost lost my virginity, do hand-hoof jobs count....FUCK!

Knock knock knock

"Miles..."

"I'm not here."

"Miles, come out of the closet..."

"No can do."

"Miles..."

"Miles isn't here right now, please leave a message after the beep, beeeeeeeep."

"Alright, it's too early for this. I'm opening the door, please don't run." She says as she slowly opens the door and looks down at me. "Wow... what happened to you."

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Miles, please. I want to help, just tell me what happened." She says in a caring tone. Well, I did come here for help.

"Well, Luna swung by this morning. One minute she was pissed at me for using magic and the next she was trying to fuck me. But believe me when I say we didn't. I didn't penetrate her. But she's going to come back later, so I need to hide for the next week."

"Luna hit estrous." She says in disbelief.

"That's what she said, right before she tried to have her way with me... do hand jobs count for losing your virginity?" She stares at me for a second before she slowly shuts the door. That can't be good. She comes back a little later looking more awake and having that look of determination on her face.... I don't like where this is going.

"Alright Miles, I will help you, but there is a catch. We are going to hide together."

"Together? Why together?"

"Because we're going to hide in the one place where she won't be able to find you."

"And where would that be?" She continues to give me her smug look as I put one and one together. "No."

"Is there anywhere else where she won't be able to find you?"

"Right here is working pretty well."

"You can't stay in my closet for a week."

"Why not?"

"She'll find you here eventually. I'd think this would be one of the first places she'd check if she was looking for you."

"... fuck. It's still a no. I'm not going back down there with all of those frenzied bots."

"Your choice. Frenzied bots or super horny Luna."

"..."

"Miles."

"..."

"Miles!"

"I'm thinking about it! Ah fine! Frenzied bots it is then...."

"YES!"

"But I'm going alone."

"No you are not...."

"Yes I am!"

"If you don't allow us to come then I'll just tell Luna where you're going."

"..... you wouldn't dare."

"Try me." We stare at each other for a few moments before I bury my face in one of the pillows.

"Why can't you understand that it's not safe down there."

"We've all dealt with danger before Miles."

"Not like this. These bots are different."

"Aren't you a Spartan?"

"Yeah..."

"And aren't Storm and Big Mac Spartans?"

"Yes, but..."

"Then this should be easy."

"Twilight..."

"Unless the Spartans are all talk and no walk." She says as she turns and walks away. OH NO SHE FUCKING DIDN'T! I jump to my feet and follow after her.

"Hey! The Spartan regiment can handle any threat..."

"Then prove it!" She says as she turns around and starts to walk towards me. "If you are all as good of fighters as you says you are then escort us down there and lets hide in Topaz Falls."

"FINE! We will!"

"Fine. Then do it."

"Fine. Just watch us."

"Fine. Get to it then."

"FINE! Go get the girls and I'll go get Big Mac and Storm. Meet back at my place in thirty minutes."

"Is that a promise?"

"You bet it is, now get going."

"If you say so. I'll be sure to gather some supplies before as well." She says before she turns and runs out the front door.... what the fuck just happened? I run out the front door to stop her but she teleports away before I could say anything.

"Mother fucker..... *sigh* fuck. Well... better go get the two of them." I say as I turn and start to walk towards Sweet Apple Acres. By the time I make it the sun's starting to make it's way past the horizon, making me sweat lightly. We need to get moving asap. I look around to try and find them, but they're no where in sight. I kneel down and quickly start to remove my boots grab a hold of them in my left hand. I turn to my right and start to run, using my magic to propel myself faster. I make a quick left when the Everfree comes into view and keep running along the line of apple trees. After a bit of running I see the tree line up ahead and slow down to turn. When I do I find Big Mac and Storm lounging underneath a tree, eating some apples. When they see me they both spit out the food in their mouths and gape at me.

"Oh shit..."

"We've got a mission." I say as I approach the two of them.

"A-a mission?" Storm says as they stand up.

"Ends up Luna's hit estrous and..."

"HAHAHAHA!" Storm and big Mac both erupt in a fit of laughter, falling to the ground and holding their sides as they rock back and forth.

"Are you done yet?"

"What, do you need us to teach you how to rut or something?" Storm says as they continue to laugh.

"OK, I'll just go to Topaz Falls with Fluttershy and Twilight alone, you two just stay here..."

"WHAT!" They both yell as they jump back to their hooves and stare at me.

"Ready to take this seriously?" They both nod so I start to tell them what happened.... leaving out the exact details of what Luna and I did. "And that's what's going on right now. Twilight's getting everyone else and we're to meet them at my place asap, any questions?"

"Uh.. who's gonna watch mah farm while we're gone.... not ta mention Applebloom."

"Good point... you think we could convince Applejack to stay behind?" Big Mac gives me a look before he shakes his head. "Fuck... alright. You're going to stay behind then. We'll go down and keep an eye on them."

"Are ya sure? Maybe ah can..."

"We don't have time to make a better call, we need to get going now. I still expect you to do your exercises in the morning, I know we will. Alright come here Storm."

"Wait what?" He says as I grab his armor and start to run to my place, getting him to latch onto me as we go. We make it to my place where I run through the front door and head to the kitchen.

"Alright, gather food. Enough to last us a week. I'm going to collect the water." I say as I take a cloth and lay it in front of the sink.

"Right... food, got it. Just let me get my satchel." He say as he runs to the front. I turn the water on and start to collect the water in the air with my magic. After I get a large amount I start to freeze the water, turning it into a ball of ice. Once the ball grows to the size of my head I start to force it to shrink, making it the size of my fist. With a solid thud I drop it onto the cloth and wrap it up and head up to my room to gather my weapons and armor. After I collect them all I start to walk out, but stop and look back at the other two guns in my closet. I grab the E.A.R. and run down stairs with it. When I get to the bottom of the stairs Twilight runs through the door and approaches me.

"OK Miles, we're all here..."

"Take this real quick." I say as I present the gun to her. She looks at it for a second with mixed looks before she takes it with her magic. I walk around and tell Storm to follow me out. The three of us walk out to find the rest of the girls standing out front, most of them looking sleepy. They all have satchel bags that are filled to the brim with what I presume are supplies. "Alright, lets get going, when we make it to the entrance I'll give a basic over view of what we're going to go through. Now lets hurry and get out of sight as soon as possible."

"Do you remember how to get there?" Twilight asks.

"Vaguely. Last time I chased a griffin into the Everfree and he showed me the entrance.

"Hmm... let me use my memory spell on you to help you remember the way." She says as she approaches me. I nod as I kneel and lower my head, allowing her to place her horn onto my head as she uses her spell on me. Images of the chase flash before my eyes as I start to recollect what exactly happened. When she finishes the spell I stand up and look back to the spot where we entered and start to head towards it.

"We entered there and went in for about thirty meters before we started to weave around, still moving forward for another forty meters." I say as we enter the tree line.

"So.. um... if you don't mind me asking, why are you hiding from Luna?" Fluttershy asks as we head further into the forest.

"Well, she went sex crazy and wanted to... yeah. I know she actually wants to wait till marriage so I'm going into hiding to honor her true wishes."

"Aaww." Fluttershy says before she mumbles something to herself.

"That's mighty respectable of you Miles." Applejack says as she trots up beside me, looking around the surrounding. "Maybe we should keep the chatter down until we make it ta the entrance." Everyone nods and we continue our way to the cave. There's a haze setting in the forest, getting thicker and thicker as we head into the forest. Soon we can only see a meter ahead, slowing us down significantly. Storm jumps ahead and flaps his wings, sending gust of wind ahead and making the haze billow up.

"Rainbow, help me out." He says, getting Rainbow to jump to his side. They both flap their wings together, trying their best to make the haze clear up, after a few minutes the fog only seems to grow thicker.

"Well that was a bust." Rainbow says as she stops flapping.

"Should we keep going?" Pinkie asks.

"We would run the risk of getting lost or separated. I think we should wait a bit before we continue." Twilight says.

"We can't wait, Luna will be on our trail any minute." I say as I take a few step forward.

"Well we can't get through this dreadful fog." Rarity complains.

"Maybe we could tie a rope ta each of us an navigate through tagather." Applejack suggest.

"We could still get lost as a group..." Twilight says as they all start to argue with one another. I step aside and try to think of a way out of this fog when something catches my attention. I look out at the grey wall and try to see what's out there, but can't see anything.

"Miles? What are you looking at?" Storm says as he walks beside me, trying to see whatever's out there.

"I'm not sure... but I think there's something out there." Everyone falls silent as we all stare out into the fog. I can't help but feel as if something out there is staring back at me. "We need to get moving." I begin to walk forwards when suddenly a deep growl rumbles from the grey. I stop and slowly place a hand on my swords pommel and my trench knife, waiting for whatever's out there to strike. Suddenly a pair of small yellow lights appear from the fog, moving towards me slowly as a low growl comes forth. In the blink of an eye, a brown mass lunges out of the haze at me. In one swift motion I drop to a knee and pull out my blade, slicing the creature as I do. The creature falls to the ground behind me and slumps over as it gags. We all approach it to identify it. It looks like a wolf, only larger and made of branches.

"Oh my... a timber wolf." Fluttershy says as she shuts it's eyes. "We should get moving, they don't usually hunt..."

oooooOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo

I look around as the sound of dozens of wolves howling fills the air, somehow making the fog clear up along with it. As the fog clears, more and more yellow eyes appear around us, slowly approaching on us.

"Any tips on dealing with timber wolves?" I ask Fluttershy.

"Just... don't set them on fire." She says as she walk up beside me.

"Really? Alright, you're the expert... what are you doing?" I ask as she approaches one of the wolves. "What is she doing?" I ask the group.

"What she does best." Twilight says proudly. "Just let her be, she can handle this." I look back to Fluttershy to see shes walked right up to one of the growling wolves and... sniffs its foot.... da fuck? The wolf stops it's growling as it sniffs Fluttershy's face a bit before backing off and wags it's tail.

"Umm, could you please let me and my friends please pass through?" She asks nicely.... she can't be serious.

"Bark bark BARK!" The wolf.... barks.... back.

"And I'm sorry that that happened, but he did attack my friend over there. We need to pass to take him to an underground city so he can hide from his estrous induced marefriend. Could you please help us?"

"Aroo?" The wolf says as it sits down and tilts its head to the side. How is she talking to it? How is it understanding her? How am I the only one who's disturbed by this?

"Oh... well, ahem, she wants to...mate... with him, but he wants to wait..."

"AROO?" It says loudly as it tilts its head to the other side.

"Well, its what she really wants, so he's doing the honorable thing. So can you help us find the cave to his home?"

"Bark bark!" It says as it jumps to its feet and runs off.

"Oh, thank goodness. She said she will take us to the cave, lets follow after her!" Fluttershy says excitedly as she chases after the timber wolf. I was about to question her but everyone else ran after her, so I followed after them. After a few minutes of running we finally come to a stop at the cave entrance to Topaz Falls. The timber wolf stands before the entrance until we all catch up. With a final bark it runs off into the forest, meeting up with the rest of the timber wolves and scatter into the forest. As we all enter the cave I walk up beside Fluttershy to ask an important question.

"Soo, why shouldn't I have set them on fire?"

"Becuase that would kill them." She says matter of factually.

"Right... anyway. Everyone, with me real quick." I say, getting all of them to come back to me. "Alright, I'm going to set some ground rules for when we're in Topaz Falls. These are to help keep you alive, so follow them closely. Do as I say. If I say run, you run. If I say don't touch, you don't touch. And if I tell you to leave you don't argue with me for an instant, you leave. If we get separated head to the Parliament Congressional Hall. It's the tallest building in the center of the city, you can't miss it. If you are on you're own, stay hidden and keep moving. Just becuase you can't see them doesn't mean they can't see you. For those of you who can fly, stay as low as possible. If you get too high you will be shot down. Any questions?"

"I have one!" Pinkie says as she waves her hoof in the air.

"No parties."

"Aw, fine, no more questions." I shake my head as I turn and lead them into the cave. Topaz Falls... I never thought I would say this, but here we come. I just hope we can keep them all safe.
