The Man & The Moon
Chapter 1: Chapter1
Load Full Story Next ChapterAn Alicorn mare walks into the room. "Hey Dax, how's your head?"
"It's good Twilight thanks." I say with a weak smile. "You should be at Pinkies party, I'll see you tomorrow. Tell Pinkie to save me some cake." She goes outside, then I head up stairs to sleep.
It's been 4 weeks since the destruction of terik, and damn I still hurt everywhere. Not that I should complain, I didn't get drained by that bitch. I was the first human to enter Equestria. It happened right after the Nightmare Moon returning fiasco. There were other humans to come through and stay, but hardly anyone has been here in a long time. I've been living With the ponies very peacefully. The ponies have been getting our tech such as: PCs, PS3s, PS4s, Xbox360s, Xbox1s, and every other form of tech we have.
While I sleep I dream of my past and ALL my fears since They are always on my mind, but tonight I had a good dream, Probably from Luna. She is a good friend of mine, but one thing I keep her from knowing is my huge crush I have on her.
This morning Was when I finally got out of bed with out collapsing from the pain (Yeah that bad.). Pinkie had decided to through me a party For her way of saying she's glad I'm better, but I need rest. The pain is still there just lessened & The pain meds make me way to drowsy.
When I wake up I here my phone ring, it's Twilight. "Hey Twi what's up?"
"Can you come over to the castle? It's important."
"I'll be there shortly." I hang up & get dressed and out the door.
I get there and walk up to her room then knock. "Twilight, You and flash Decent in there?"
"Yes." They said in unison.
I opened the door and saw them in both in shirt and under garment. "I was almost to late wasn't I?" I smirk.
"Almost." Said Flash in a disappointed tone.
"So Twilight, did you need something or were you wanting to have a threesome?"
"Have you read the paper?"
"That's what I have friends like you for." I say with a hint of humor.
"Just read it." She hands me the paper. It has Luna going berserk and shooting a Blueblood with her horn. I bust out laughing. "OMG, that's fucking hilarious, but what does this have to do with me?"
"This has made some politicians think she's unstable, so she needs a place to lay low until this situation simmers down."
"So she's staying with me?" I say putting two and two together.
"Yes, but She will have to be in disguise so people don't start making the situation more complicated. she should be here in three... two... one." In poofs Luna with a flash of light.
"Hello, we are here." Said Luna with a friendly tone, "So Dax, you will be housing us while we're laying low right?"
"Yes Luna. how will you be incognito though? you're an Alicorn, which means people will know who you are."
"We have taken care this detail." She puts on a necklace and she loses her wings, her coat gets a little lighter, her mane goes back to the way it was when she turned back from Nightmare Moon, and her eyes got a shade lighter. "Do you think this will work?" She asks.
"Yeah, that'll work. what do I call you out around the town? people would take notice if I called you Luna, Princess, Lady of the night, etc." I say as a valid point.
"In this form, my name is Midnight Star." I know it sounds stupid, but would you tell her that?
"Okay, so Midnight, ready to go?" I say so Twi and Flash can "get back to it". I lead Luna/Midnight to my place, every stallion we walk by stops and stares at her then gives me a thumbs up. when we get to my place I show her where her room is, where the bathroom is, and where my video games are. My watch read 12:00PM, "So Luna, you hungry?"
"Yes, we are famished." she said walking right behind me.
"You're only gonna be able to talk as though you're two ponies when no one's around but me and Twilight. okay?"
"We are aware of this. What's on the menu?"
"I have some oats, hay, and that kind of stuff for ponies, but I eat meat and some fruits."
"Do you eat horse?" She asked a little worriedly.
I give a little laugh, "No, most humans wont eat horse, but some religions eat horse for some reason. I eat beef, pork, chicken, & deer."
"We see, do you have the game Skyrim?"
"Legendary edition and normal. You can play it while I make lunch."
She Ran over to the console so fast Rainbow Dash would've been jealous. She put in the game and made a new profile, and by the time lunch was ready she had beat the civil war, five daedra quests, and had half of the Dragon priest masks. "How the fuck did you do that in one hour?"
"We play a lot." She says with pride.
"I've wasted a lot of the past month and haven't done that shit that fast." I say still in shock.
She gives a gesture to end the conversation. I do so as my stomach started growling right then. we sit down and have lunch. we both finish in 10 minutes. After that, I turned the T.V. on to human channels and watch American Ninja Warrior. She watches with me, she starts asking questions an I answer with my knowledge of the show, starting from it's Japanese origin. "... and that's up to right now."
"Damn, you love that show don't you?" Luna asks with some annoyance.
"Love is a strong word, overly enjoy would fit better." I say with a nonchalant tone.
"Whatever, we would like to get back to our game."
"I was about to change to my PS4 and play inFAMOUS second son. Would you like to play?"
"We wish to know what this inFAMOUS is."
I face-palm. "Are you serious? You've never heard of the inFAMOUS games?"
"We were just joking, I played all but Second Son. We would love to play it."
"Good, I'll get the game going." I set up the game for her (on another save, of course.), pulled out my gaming chair for her, and watched as she owned the first section of the game (when Delson doesn't have his powers). She is having a good time, so I try not to spoil anything for her, but I give a few hints.
She is now at the first karma option. "Dax, what do you think I should do?"
"Betty get's concreted either way, but I would go good karma."
"WHAT?! why?" she asked with a bit of sorrow.
"That ginger is a bitch, and the main antagonist."
She got a good way into the game when she decided to stop. We had dinner and both went to our own rooms to sleep. My nightmares came back that night. Next Chapter: Chapter2 Estimated time remaining: 7 Minutes
