Chapter 22

It was the yellow mare that eluded all night and the few days. She hadnt seen me yet and figured now would be the right time to ask what has been bothering her. I creep up slowly and didnt see the metal bar laying on the ground and slammed it with my foot.

She jumped almost out of her skin and turned to me with bulging eyes. I didn't they could get that big the eyes are definitely the largest organ in the body. I stood still and we exchanged stares for a brief moment. I start by apologizing for sneaking up on her. She just slumps her head to the ground and mopes.

I just had to know what I did wrong and kneeled at her side. I try to scratch the surface with a simple question. "Is  everything okay?" She latches to my arm and pleads with sad eyes. " Dax please don't leave. Why don't you like it here? Is it something we did that made you so violent?"

She surprised me with her bombardment of questions. A few days ago I couldn't get her to talk to me . But I sighed and explained as best I could. Humans are a very aggressive species we are by nature and won't change any time soon.

I expected it to sink in to her mind that me leaving would benefit the safety of her race. She just kept staring at me and squeaked out. " You can change. Wont you at least try." I was feeling her grip my arm and feeling it go to sleep. She wasn't going to let go until I gave her an answer.

I just wanted to turn invisible. But again I just danced around the question with. " Maybe" The simple word released her iron grip on me and let the blood flow back to my arm.

I down and ask her what she was doing out there so late and looked up at the sky. "I so nervous about tomorrow it's hard to sleep." She looks back at me and asks. " Aren't you?" I shrugged. She was the leader but she wasn't God at least not to me.

"No" I said with confidence she cracks a smile. To be honest I was but seeing her happy made my day a little better. I've only known her a week and I have grown so attached to her. The first time I saw her I almost choked her to death.

She looks around at the surroundings and back to me. She motions for me to get to eye level with her. I do as she said and I feel her warm breath envelope my face as she spoke with a soft tone. " Do you want to fool around?"

I wanted to say no before she started licking my ear. She was almost impossible to resist when she was like that. I was on edge anyway and it would keep my mind off things.

I whisper back okay and she jumps in my lap. I just look up at the sky and was just going to let her do whatever. I feel her undo my suit and thats when I saw it.

In the sky rivaling the moon in size was a massive ominous object it had lights all over it flashing brightly making out the color and outline of it perfectly. I gasp and Fluttershy looks up at it as well.

I watched her face go white and it occurred to me it wasn't a normal sight in the sky. I ask her if she knew what it was and she just shakes her head no unable to talk. I had a clue as to what or who it maybe but would have to make sure.

I really wanted to go in and wake everyone up and tell ask them about it. It was the middle of the night and the engineer has probably already seen it and would have warned us if it was something dangerous. I mean he has done this many times before I hoped.

This effectively killed the moment we were having and I offer to take her to bed. She just shook her head. She looked terrified and it was starting to rub of onto me.

I pick her up and reenter the cabin. I do my best to be quiet and set her down gently on the bed. Before I turn around to walk back outside she asks me. " What is it do you know?" I replied with " No I don't I have never seen anything like it."

I let her sleep and made my way back outside. I stared at the object for sometime watching it move slowly across the sky and get larger. It had the shape of a triangle and was flat besides a structure at the back that was tall and covered the length of it.

It was starting to get daylight and the object still appeared even over the sun. I hear the train' s whistle letting us know its two hours until we reach the city. I didn't pay it any mind and popped my neck.

It was aching badly and I went back inside to lay my head down for a second. I see Twilight already awake and getting things ready. She is puzzled and asked me with concern.

"Are you okay?" I motion her to follow me and I walk back outside with her. She looks around confused at why I would bring her out there. I force her head with my hands towards the sky.

She gasps and exclaims " What is that thing!!" I shot back at her  " You never seen anything like that before?" She shakes her head no and looks at me. " Do you know Dax?" she asked. I hadn't a clue but the best chance I have is in Canterlot.
