A grand total of thirty five more minutes passed before Rainbow Dash finally started to stir. Add that time to the forty minutes he had already been waiting before, and he'd been waiting here for seventy five minutes. During which, he had been unable to escape her iron grip which she was using to snuggle him with, but he had managed to wrap up his scarred hand in some bandage tape. He pretty sure burn marks from raw magical energy took a long time to heal, so he'd need alot of these soon. He looked at the clock hung up opposite him on the wall

"I'm pretty sure I missed my first class...again...dammit Rainbow Dash, wake your ass up! If you make me miss more classes you're gonna go from Rainbow Dash to Rapidash real quick!"

Even if he hadn't wanted to stay to make sure she was alright, he had to. He was pretty sure she'd have a boatload of questions for him, and at least one of them would probably pertain to the necklace she now wore. So, classes or no classes...he was stuck there until she decided to get up.

"If you make me miss my second class too...I seriously might kill you...even though I just saved you...wow...I'd have wasted my own time if I did that...ok scratch that, I won't kill you...but still...wake the fuck up!"

As though sensing his thoughts, her eyes began to flutter moments later. He stared with hope as she started to stretch her legs out, and finally began to relax her grip around his waist.

"Oh goddess, I can breathe properly again! It's fucking glorious!"

He inhaled deeply several times. A small giggle from his waist attracted his attention

"Was I really squeezing you that hard big guuuuuy?" The baby voice that she used wreaked of mocking, but the stare she was giving him as he looked down at her said something else entirely.

"Her stare scares me....I feel like she's gonna eat me...I suddenly feel the need to be several feet away from her...and behind a force field...made of fire."

Rainbow Dash stretched out her arms and leaned her back upwards, allowing her to drape herself over his legs.

"I wish I had been sitting crossed legged and instead of on the edge of this bed..."

Finally satisfied with her stretches, she laid back down and fully extended her limbs every which way. Clearly laying across him and trapping him sitting down was not an issue for her. She looked up at him with a smirk

"So did you enjoy perving out on me while I slept?"

A large flush of red filled Daybreaks cheeks almost instantaneously, he gave her a glare, or at least as close to one as he could muster through his blush.

"I h-have no idea w-what you're talking about."

Her smirk only grew bigger at his shyness

"Oh really? So you're telling me you weren't staring down my chest while I was sleeping? I could have sworn I felt some hands there."

His tongue felt like lead

"That was the nurse...jerk, she was taking off your burnt up shirt...I didn't do anything to you except save your life! You're welcome for not letting you die of a fucking heart attack by the way."

"Oh yeah...you did do that didn't you...after you were squeezing at my boob with your hands that is."

"Is she trying to piss me off? Cause it's working!"

"Quit it...You know just as well as I do, that was an accident. I'd never take advantage of someone when they were helpless."

He felt a slight sting suddenly light up his arm. He twitched in pain and looked down, her fist was next to his right arm.

"Who are you calling helpless? Huh, pervert?"

He narrowed his eyes, giving his green gaze a rather sinister look

"You were literally dying. Blood was coming out of your mouth and you were thrashing about on the ground."

She "hmphed" in annoyance

"Still could'a kicked your ass even if I was dying."

"You're impossible...literally you are impossible to reason with."

"You're welcome"

"For what?"

"For not letting you die, I'm still waiting for a 'thank you' genius"

Rainbow Dash actually chuckled while she stretched out her legs, she adjusted herself so it was just her head that was laying across his legs now. She flung her legs around to the edge of the bed wildly, hanging them over the side like his.

"You actually want a 'thank you'?"

"I'd like one. Yes. Is that too much to ask from someone like y-WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!!"

She had literally flung her arms around his neck, and squeezed, crushing most of her body against his. He was practically screaming internally! His unending levels of discomfort were matched only by another, odd feeling, he suddenly felt.

"Get off me get off me get off me get off me get off me! I don't care how soft you are or how warm this feels...get off me!"

Too frightened to actually do anything about it, he merely sat there and took the hug until she released him. Then she worked herself into a cross legged sitting position on the bed and looked at him. She drew another smirk from the look on his face

"That was more of me then any other guy ever got to touch, hope you savored it cause that's all you get."

"Considering you just death hugged me with everything but your legs, I'm not sure how much left of you there would be to touch!"

Rainbow seemed pretty well off for someone who had nearly died a little more than an hour ago, she was already twirling the necklace in her fingers, examining the small lightning cloud in her palm.

"Where'd this come from?" She inquired aloud as she started to pull the chain over her head, clearly intent on removing it to examine. Daybreak saw it about to pass over her head and dove forward without thinking

"No wait!"

He practically tackled her

"Oh shit...didn't think that one through..."

He fell on top of Rainbows chest as her back made contact with the mattress. From this angle, it looked like he was trying to pin her down. He blushed profusely and quickly lifted himself, expecting to get punched again. But this time, Rainbow merely held onto her smirk and dangled the cloud part of the necklace in front of her by the end of the chain, casually flicking her feet back and forth through the air lazily.

"At least I managed to keep it on her, if nothing else"

"Well, since you seem to prefer me when I'm on my back, maybe I'll just stay down here this time hm, Pervy?"

Daybreak flushed red from anger and embarrassment, quickly scrambling back into a sitting position and getting himself fully off of Rainbow. She just giggled and continued to wave the end of the necklace across her vision

"Fuck you...seriously...just...fuck you."

"Sooooooooo. Why did you stop me from taking this off? I'm guessing you're the one who gave it to me right?...unless it just appeared here through witchcraft?"

Daybreak sighed aloud.

"Honestly...I really don't feel like giving a magic lesson right now...But...I suppose she does deserve an explanation."

He took a deep breathe, she leaned her head forward on her knuckles, pretending to listen closely. Her mocking him wasn't making this any easier.

"Well. Basically, that necklace is the reason you're still alive-"

Her eyes pulsed wide for a moment "So if I take it off I'll dieeeeeee?!"

"Can you let me finish?" He was hardly amused by her overreaction.

"But...maybe...I did see a bit of fear there for a second...maybe...I don't know"

Rainbow shrugged sheepishly "Right...sorry, go ahead man."

He felt the need to place his hands in his palms and just sigh loudly...but he didn't.

"Well the whole reason you had that heart attack in the first place was because you were releasing too much magic from your body at once."

She actually removed her face from her knuckles, and sat up a little straighter now. Clearly she was actually paying attention this time.

"What do you mean?"

"It's kind of hard to explain...have you ever gone that fast for that long before? Ever broken the sound barrier? Made a sonic boom?"

The smirk that came over her face, was certainly something to behold. He didn't even need an answer with the way she was looking at him.

She held up four of her fingers.

"Four times now, and the first was when I was just a kid. Also, it's Sonic Rainboom by the way."

"A what now?"

He raised an eyebrow at her

"Excuse me?"

His skeptical look must have gotten to her, she repeated with a slight bit more aggression in her voice this time

"Sonic Rainboom! Haven't you ever heard of it? You just did one like an hour ago! Though yours was more like a green flame explosion than anything else, still pretty cool though."

"Oh...now I get it...wow...seriously Rainbow Dash...are you that egotistical? Wait...I shouldn't be saying anything in that respect."

"So, it's basically a sonic boom with rainbow fire instead of a sound wave?"

She looked genuinely annoyed by his skepticism, and she certainly didn't make any effort to hide it

"Duh...geez. It's only the most famous stunt ever performed for athletics. How could you not have heard of it?"

"What? You want me to ask for your autograph or something?"

"I haven't exactly been...around Ponyville very long...it's been a few years since I was this close to Canterlot. News doesn't travel to fast outside the main borders."

She shrugged shyly, she could sense they were approaching an uncomfortable topic for him. She quickly changed the subject, holding up the necklace and practically shoving it in his face.

"So back to this. What does my Rainbooms have to do with it?"

Daybreak, who was also glad for a change of subject, made quick to answer her.

"Well, when we raced, I could sense your magic and how you were releasing it. You were venting it out at an unbelievable rate, and it's severely damaging for your body. It does wonders for your power, your figure, and your athletics, but your body can't cope with the loss of so much energy and magic, so quickly. You become imbalanced and unstable. I don't know how much you know about magic, but if it goes unstable anywhere that's bad. Well an imbalance inside your body can actually kill you, as you just saw. To be honest, if you've done 'Rainbooms' before, I'm surprised you haven't suffered any repercussions until this time."

"Well, whenever I've done them before, I only did it right up to the boom, then I slowed down after I made the wave...I've never raced against someone as fast as you before. I had to maintain it the whole final fifty meters to the finish...Hey wait! If the necklace keeps me balanced, then it does the same thing for you right...yours I mean?"

He nodded slowly, holding back the smirk he knew he'd soon have.

"Then how come you didn't react like me afterwards, ya know, throwing up blood and nearly dying...you seem just fine and you don't have your necklace now."

"Hmm...maybe she's smarter than I thought..."

"Well, I've had it for so long, I learned how to regulate my magical output for myself. I don't need the necklace for that anymore."

"Then why keep it?"

He stopped meeting her gaze for a moment, allowing his eyes to linger on hers before quickly turning away

"A stupid bit of sentimentality...I don't really wanna discuss it."

She nodded "Ok...well...anyways...you're really fast...like I'm actually impressed...I haven't had to try that hard against anyone in...actually...I don't think I've ever tried that hard to beat someone before."

He couldn't help the sneer that jumped to his lips

"Did I sense a compliment in there?"

Now it was her turn to blush, and it was much more noticeable against her cyan skin than his.

"Ok, that's actually pretty cute. Ya know...for a self-obsessed girl I mean...goddess...why do I even try..."

She gave him a small shove on the bed

"Yeah well, I still won, so ready up slave boy, cause I got a list of things for ya to do."

He actually gave a sincere laugh back at her, though it was full of goading and very obvious

"You? Please, I definitely won that!"

"How do you figure that?"

"I'm the only one that even remained conscious!"

"Oh..."

She searched her brain for a legitimate reason to argue back

"Well...I still say I won. I flew farther than you, that means I was closer to the finish line than you."

"I landed on top of you remember? We literally flew the same distance...if anything it's a draw."

"But a draw means we both win..."

"Yeah and...?"

"I fail to see the problem here...Why's she suddenly all red?"

A large blush formed in her cheeks, for some reason she looked like she was wrestling with some great decision in her head.

"Fine!!!" She practically yelled it at him. Then quickly stood up and got off the bed, she walked over to the door, he heard the lock on the door click shut and she returned to the bedside.

"What's with her?"

"But I'm only doing this for you, no one else gets to see, I don't care what I bet!"

"What do you me-WHAT IN TARTARUS ARE YOU DOING!"

She had her hands behind her back, with a small tug, her bra suddenly fell away from her chest.

"WHAT THE FUCK RAINBOW DASH!?"

He quickly shielded his eyes in his hands and shoved his face into the beds blanket for extra measure. Though he was still able to hear her with ease as she freaked out, almost more than he did

"What are you acting so surprised for?! Y-you ass...You're the one who said I had to strip if I lost..."

"Oh...I did say that didn't I? Kinda regretting that now though...it was funnier in my head...less awkwardness...more laughing."

He faked a cough from inside the blanket

"Well...umm...I kind of just said that to piss you off...to be honest I was never gonna make you do it.."

"I so would have made her do this anyways...it just seems awkward with only me though...like I ordered a strip tease or something"

He heard her give an annoyed huff from outside the blanket. He wondered if her bra was still off now, but wasn't risking it. Her voice came out slightly softer this time

"Well...then why didn't you just say I won...I mean if your not even gonna ask for what you won... "

He felt extremely foolish talking to her through a blanket, but wasn't removing his head until he knew it was safe.

"Cause! There was no way I was letting you think you'd beaten me!...Why are you so willing to even do this?!"

"Cause, we made a bet, and I'm loyal to my promises!...So...you didn't wanna actually see me...ya know...strip...you just wanted to beat me?"

"Why do I suddenly feel like an asshole?...Why do I even care?...Wait!? Did her voice get softer...oh fuck all kinds of shit...did I hurt her feelings? Wait! Is that even possible? I guess even I have things that bother me...but her? I guess anything's possible...what should I do...If I don't look and she really is sensitive about this kind of stuff...I'll look like an ass, more than I want to...but if I do look and she's just messing with me, I look like a perv....I really done fucked myself haven't I? What should I say? Wait! This could be perfect...now's the chance I've been waiting for...I could make her hate me right here and now and it would be easier than ever...but...I...I suddenly don't want to..."

He struggled to find some words to justify what he had thought when he made this his terms.

"W-well I mean...I guess I might have wanted you too then...I mean no! That's not what I meant...Ugggh...I was just trying to mess with you...like you enslaving me as your win..."

"Except I would have actually done that...and to be honest...now I'm definitely gonna"

"Well...fuck me then..".

He wasn't sure what to say, he sat under the blanket waiting for her to say something. Luckily, she eventually did

"Hey look...This is none of my business or anything...but...are you gay?"

"I'm going to murder her..."

"NO I'M NOT FUCKING GAY! WHAT THE FUCK RAINBOW DASH!?"

"Then get out here dammit!!!"

He heard her hands fly to her lips, as though sealing them shut might recall what had just escaped from them. Even he felt embarrassed at how she had yelled that. He heard her take a deep breathe, her voice came out soft again...but it sounded strained, quivering in fact...

"Alright look...maybe you just don't find me attractive...that's...fine and everything...but unless you give me the victory, there are only a few options here. Sooooo...how about we do this...I'll compromise with you, I've still got my underwear on...so ya know...just come out now and I'll stay like this. And instead of enslaving you for a whole day, I get to own you for an hour?"

He sighed to himself

"Goddess, this is why being an asshole to everybody is so hard sometimes...attachments...attraction...they're all weaknesses...and right now I feel pretty weak in this situation...I hate feeling weak...Hold on a second! What was that part about finding her attractive?...Literally...fuck my life...I hurt her feelings didn't I? I should've just made her hate me...now I feel like a dick and I caaaaare...maybe I should try being a little honest with her and see how that goes...can't possibly make things any worse"

He pretended to cough as he spoke

"I...urmph...I n-never...I never said...that...that you weren't attractive...I just...umm...I'm just trying to....uggghhh...maybe I'll just come out now...ok?"

"J-just...g-get out here...the air conditioning is on and...it's cold...".

"Ok...let's say...let's just say...for a second...maybe I am attracted to her...MAYBE! My biggest problem here is not showing it at all...if she catches on to that, she'll never let me forget it, and more importantly, she'll get attached to me. That never ends well. I have to keep myself under control when I come out...especially my more...involuntary parts...I should keep my lower half under the blanket just in case."

Slowly, keeping his eyes shut, Daybreak removed his head from the blankets of the bed, and positioned himself so that the rest of his body was covered instead, then he let the blanket fall, so it didn't appear like he was trying to hide something. Then...he opened his eyes.

Only a foot away, within arms length actually, stood Rainbow Dash, her arms held behind her back while a thick blush ran across her cheeks. She gently rocked back and forth on her heels while he attempted not to blush as much as she was. He found it very hard not to show he was staring at her chest, completely. He hadn't exactly been with anyone before, being alone nearly all twenty two years of his life, so this sight was certainly a new one. He'd been around girls before, many that had tried to get with him in his other schools and colleges, but he had been more successful with driving them away...it seemed Rainbow Dash was immune to that.

Speaking of Rainbow Dash, it seems he had misjudged her chest size...sort of. Her bras were definitely tighter than he thought, cause her chest was bordering on a C size, but still technically in the B's, any larger though and she'd have some real trouble maintaining her running speed due to...well...top heavy weight. He also found it difficult not to notice ever detail about her bare torso while he could. Her sleek figure was absolutely flawless, all the way down to her hips. She had an athletes figure, for obvious reasons, but she still maintained a hour-glass-enough look to be deemed "model worthy" by the fashionista's of the day. Her whole body was built, but not in a masculine way, she showed a bit of muscle, but still kept a feminine look. She had a small set of abbs showing on her belly, but only when she flexed her muscles...which she seemed to do every time his eyes drifted passed that spot. He had no view of her butt from this angle, and certainly wasn't gonna ask for her to turn around, that would be like announcing his attraction to her, but he still had a good view of her hips and the way her underwear hugged them tightly. His eyes crawled their way back up to her chest yet again and found out what she meant about the cold, her nipples were hard as diamonds from the cool air she was standing under. He almost chuckled, and thought of saying something about it to her, but thought better of it. She was vulnerable right now, and that wasn't the time to mess with her.

All in all this girl had a body that only allowed him to utter one word

"Don't say perfect don't say perfect don't say perfect don't say perfect don't say perfect"

"Wow..."

"Ok...thank goodness...saved myself...sort of"

Her blush completely took over her face and she seemed to writhe in discomfort and embarrassment.

"Are you done perving out on me yet...y-you ass...quit starting at me like I'm some kind of meal...I'm not your eye candy...jerk".

"Ok...I gotta say something now, she has it coming...nothing too hurtful though. I don't wanna actually hurt her feelings...for some reason."

He chuckled loud enough for her to hear "I'm sorry, I just can't seem to help it. But don't worry, I don't think of you as a meal...not sure about candy though...I mean you are skittles after all"

She glared at him so hard he though he might spontaneously combust. He smirked, the most, charming, but evil smirk he could muster at her.

"I hate you."

"Clearly not, or you wouldn't be half naked in front of me...still...that almost hurt...if I didn't know she was joking..."

"No you don't, you're just sore that I'm on the winning end of this view."

Unable to blush any harder, her hands twitched and she rocked even faster on her heels. Clearly resisting the urge to hide her face

"Are you done yet?"

"Now for the kill."

"What? Oh I've been done for a while now...I'm just messing with you at this point."

He ducked just quick enough to avoid his bag striking him in the face. He returned right side up with his items to see Rainbow Dash bent over in her bag and attempting to pull on some spare pants. This time, he actually averted his eyes. He wasn't that big an ass and he knew how tightly those undershorts hugged her frame. He wouldn't feel right if he spied that particular part of her.

"Keep your eyes off my ass pervert."

He looked back to find her smirking at him, a new bra and top already on, along with some black baggy athletic pants. They looked oddly similar to the pair he owned...which was a bit creepy actually.

"The fact that she saw me forcing my eyes away is bad...very bad...if she's as smart as I hope she's not...the she'll know I did that cause I was embarrassed, and that implies so on and so forth. Pervy guys don't get embarrassed when they stare at girls...I really hope she's not that clever...Wait...Why is she smirking?"

She wasn't staring at him, but at the bed sheets. Daybreak looked down and immediately felt his face flush and his own blood freeze in his veins...unfortunately, not the blood in the one spot he needed it. The sheets had settled on him and were pressed against his pelvis and legs...allowing Rainbow to see just how much he really had enjoyed the sight of her. He flushed and she giggled with a sinister smile

"So Mr. Hot-Shot..."

"Well...clearly her attitude is back...all it took was me being as uncomfortable as her for about thirty seconds..."

"Now that my part is fulfilled, you know what comes next right?"

"Oh...shit...I'm about to seriously hate my life for the next hour..."

She leaned forward, until her nose was only inches from his and grinned that evil grin, the one he couldn't help but like.

"I own you now, you are my slave and you do what I want. Hope you're ready cause you're going to..."

"Oh...here it comes..." He crushed his eyes shut in fearful anticipation.

"...Move in with me."

His brain stopped. He saw only static in his eyes

"Whatthefuckdidshejsutsaywhythefuckdidshejustsayitbadveryfuckingbad!"

He was stunned into bewilderment, barely knowing what to say

"W-what?"

Her gaze held, drinking in the shock on his face as though it was fuel for her

"You heard me slave you don't have a choice. I know you don't have a dorm yet, and I have a space open, after which my room will be posted as 'full to requested capacity'. In other words, you'll get the isolation you want from most others...and I..."

He watched her eyes falter for a moment

"And I...get to hang with a pretty cool dude inside my room rather than some random asshole who will probably just flirt with me or perv out on me in the shower all the time. I don't need that"

He had to attempt to talk his way out of this

"W-what m-makes you think I won't do the same?"

She looked him dead in the eyes

"Because I think I get you, two days here, not even been in a single one of your classes yet, and I'm willing to bet I know you better than anyone else here will."

"Damn you...you're right..."

"So slaaaaaave, oh how I love using that word, oh yeah, just call me master until your hour is up from now on, so...tell me that you won't spy on me in the shower and I'll believe you."

He groaned with self loathing

"I won't spy on you in the shower"

"I won't spy on you in the shoooooower...?"

"Fuck you..."

"Master..."

"Good boy"

"Burn in deepest pits of Tartarus..."

She reached over and patted the top of his head

"Ya wanna know a secret, slave?"

"If I could, I'd tell you the ones that I know would melt that smug ass grin right off your face..."

"Sure master why not..."

Without warning of any kind, she pushed him onto his back, he hit the mattress with a thud, and felt her climb on top of him, she pressed her body against his way to tightly, and brought her lips up to his ear, she whispered in the softest, but most evil filled voice she could

"Nothing that has happened so far has really embarrassed me, all that shyness, all that softness in my voice, it's all an act. An act that you fell for. I really just wanted to see if you thought I was attractive, this wouldn't be half as fun if I was living with someone who didn't at least think I looked good, not there was every any doubt in my mind. But that's why I was willing to tone down the winnings, all I really wanted was for you to agree to dorm with me and I only need to own you for a minute to do that. Cause in all honesty, you really are the most interesting person I've met at this place yet, my friends are cool and all, but your definitely different...in an awesome way. Not quite as awesome as me, but still, you're cool."

His jaw had dropped halfway through her speech. He could focus on nothing else but the fact that she had played him, even as she pinned him against the sheets, his embarrassment was overpowered by sheer disbelief.

"Still...There are some parts of what you're saying that I can tell you're bullshitting...You're a very good liar Rainbow Dash, but you don't know my magic like I do. I can sense some lies in this little victory speech of yours. Now it's just up to me to figure out what they are...but I must give you credit...for playing me like guitar string. However, the battle may be lost, but the war is just beginning, and trust me, when it's over, I'll be the victor!...But there is one major problem with this whole thing no matter how I slice it. She likes me, thinks I'm cool, or awesome or whatever. She's already attached to me...and unlike everyone before her...I don't wanna hurt her in the end."

Realizing he wasn't quite as embarrassed by her pinning him as she had hoped, or maybe just realizing their third class would be starting soon, she got off him and offered a hand to him. He took it after a moment of consideration, then grabbed her bag along with his own and flung them both over his back. She looked genuinely surprised that he grabbed her bag for her, for just a second Daybreak watched a smile of sincerity float across her face, only to be hidden a quick second later

"You play the part of servant pretty well, have any past experience?"

"You have no idea..."

"Maybe I'm just polite."

She laughed loudly as they both reached the door.

"Yeah ok, right. Come on slave boy, third class of the day coming up is Magic and Chemistries, you might actually make this one. Here's hoping, cause I need someone to carry my flasks for me."

"Ya know...I think I said I was gonna set you on fire if you made me miss second period...Chemistry seems like a perfect place to do that."

"Yes master"
