Author's Notes:

Yeah we're back to the normal shit you've come to expect from this story

I walked through the rain slowly, allowing the raindrops to wash the blood off of my coat, face and hands. It would still stain, but the blood wouldn't be as noticeable on my way to my cabin where I could change into another set of clothes. The red glow of my gauntlet faded out and returened to its natural blue, as did my eyes. I took in a deep breath of fresh air and sighed heavily. I never enjoyed it, even if it was someone who had wiped out hundreds, I still hated killing. Yet, at times, I still do it, sometimes nonchalantly.

Still, the bastard deserved to die. Maybe not in that way, I mean I literally crushed his nuts in my gauntlet, what kinda guy does that to another guy? It's like an unspoken rule between men, not below the belt blows. Yet, I break that rule in the name of sweet sweet revenge.

But hey, why don't we skip all this drama and get back into a lighter mood eh? You must want a break after that last chapter.

The Next Day

I woke up the next morning with a blistering headache, I won't lie, me and the guys had a little too much to drink the night before, so I was experiencing the mother of all hangovers since exhaustion and mental strain were also added to the headaches and just me generally feeling like shit. I was lucky as the curtain was covering the windows of the room, so there was no blinding light to make me feel even worse.

I just lay there for awhile, letting myself wake up a bit more before rolling onto my side. As I did, I felt my hand land on something soft and warm. I felt about the object for a few moments before I recognised what this thing was. It was a sleeping pony. I opened my eyes to see some mare lying in bed with me, that would have been alright considering it had happened a few times before. The reason it wasn't ok was because the mare in my bed was none other than FlitterFlight. "Oh for fucks sake..."

I checked myself and found that I was indeed naked and slightly sweaty. Well, looks like I just fucked my friends sister...this will not end well for me. I sighed and lay down on my back, waiting fir the headache to pass when I felt Flitter wrapping her hooves around my arm as she snuggled into me while still sleeping. I accepted my fate and allowed her to keep cuddling my arm. How the hell was I supposed to explain all of this to FireFlight?

I'd deal with it when I reached that point, right now I had to take my mind off of Metric. Kinda hard when his girlfriend who I had just fucked was hugging my arm. Guess this was something I couldn't escape, much like what was coming when I had to face FireFlight. If Mothy were here he'd just be on the floor laughing by now avoiding my knives. Clawback would just shrug it off. Pyro would either join in on the laughing or start congratulating me. Echo, would probably get jealous.

After awhile, Flitter started to stir. When she opened her eyes she rubbed them to make sure she wasn't seeing things. I got up and got into a dark blue t-shirt and simple jeans as I was just planning on relaxing during that day. Flitter just sat there covering her face with the blanket while muttering about how stupid she was.

I sat her down and told her it was alright and that shit happens, sometimes people get drunk and do stupid things when t hey try to unwind. I also told her that I was not going to enter a relationship because of this, and she herself said the same. Her for getting over !etric and me for...well, let's just say I haven't forgotten about what happened in Manehatten with Molly.

Anyway, we agreed to put the incident behind us and remain as friends. Maybe if I don't get things sorted with Molly I can go to Flitter. It's a thought.

Anyway, once we got ourselves cleaned up and the smell of sweat and...other things...were gone, we both set out to get some breakfast. Flitter perched herself on my shoulder, wanting to be close to someone that she trusted. She wasn't going to recover from the abuse Metric had given her for awhile, so I let her be.

As we were about to walk into the hotels dining area we saw a collection of ponies gathered in a small crowd. Curious as to what was happening I walked over and looked over the crowd...only to facepalm as I saw what was in the centre of the crowd. Turns out, Fire and Blue hadn't gone to sleep, they only kept drinking and were now in a brah-down. No fighting, just a bunch of fighting words in sentences ending with the word brah.

I looked to see Fires wife with her wings covering her face while his two kids just stated at him in disapproval. When a kid stares at you with those eyes you know you've fucked up, no matter the species.

I rolled my eyes as I walked through the crowd before grabbing the two by the back of the head and slamming their faces together, knocking them out cold and causing them to drop their drinks. I told Flitter to go get her own breakfast while I got the two drunk ponies in my arms back to their rooms.

Well, at least I'll be getting peace today to just relax and forget about everything, with the company of Flitter of course, she needed to be around a friend.

Hopefully I got all the negative shit out of the way so that I can actually relax during my stay here, I didn't pay a few thousand bits just to have to deal with the shot I was trying to get away from. Just a day in the life of me I guess.
