Off course
Chapter 5: Interlude: The token
Previous Chapter Next ChapterIt has been a little over a week since the changeling invasion. In that time Ethan has been spending more time with Luna or he's been in the garage. Now if you are wondering what the garage looks like, well it looks exactly like the ten car garage in GTA 5. I don't know what his problem is, but he seems to have a fetish for grand theft auto. The girls decided to go with the main six back to ponyville. I don't know what it was, but it felt like part of me died when Twilight left since we spent most of the week exchanging information to each other. I also believe she felt the same because she seemed saddened when she had to leave. I keep tell myself that it is nothing but I think cadence knows. Being the princess of love and all. So today Ethan and I were fixing the damages done to the Sultan RS and the Jester. The engines needed to be checked up on as well but we thought it would be best to do that after fixing the visual damages seeing how they are all on the front end of the cars.
The Sultan had several dents in the fender and bumper, the widow shield was totaled along with the tires. The paint job had to be redone as well. The Jester had multiple dents in the hood and front bumper. The windows on the car also needed to be replaced. I still don't see have those measly insects could cause so much damage to our cars when we had placed armor enchantments on them. I had taken the hood over to the bench and was pounding at the dents, see as we didn't have a new hood and Ethan didn't want to conjure up a new one, when Ethan called me.
"Hey Evo." he said as he was underneath the Sultan.
"Yea?" I asked.
"I just remembered what we were supposed to do a thousand years ago."
"And that is?"
"We forgot to make our tokens." he said as he scooted himself from under the car. He stood up and walked to the bench and told me to stop what I was doing and to pay close attention. He pulled out what looked to be a double barrel 1911 and handed it to me. I took the gun into my grasp and examined it. It was the first pistol that i've seen with a double barrel. I ejected the magazines and saw that they too were doubled.'I see the firing rate is doubled because of the design.' I thought as I inserted the mag back into the pistol. I then proceeded to hand it back to Ethan.
"Like what you picked there. So what do we do?" I asked.
"We say a heroic and iconic saying that will make a displaced call on us when the time comes. Then once we do that all I have to do is tear an opening into the void," he said as he made the tear. "then we throw it in there and wait for someone or somepony to call upon us."
"Okay and what do you want me to say....because I know that what I have in mind you won't let me."
"Non-scenes. Just say what ever comes to mind."
"Okay, I am the destroyer of your-"
"That next word better not be body."
"..."
"You sick fuck! Let me show you how its done." Ethan said as the pistol glowed a slight green color. "I am the Wanderer or yang. I am the light that conquers all darkness and defeats any evil. If you need a comrade or drinking buddy then pull the right trigger to call upon me."
'Okay I can do this.' I thought. "I am the Courier or yin. I am the darkness that devours the light. If you have a foe to defeat or a mind to break call on me." I said. We looked at each other, knowing what to do next as we spoke together.
"But if you need the help of both yin and yang then pull both triggers and we will be there to assist you if your reason is righteous and true." we finished as Ethan threw the gun into the void and the tear disappeared. We stood there awkwardly for a few seconds.
"So should we-" I said.
"Yea we should." Ethan said as he went back over to the Sultan and laid back under the car. I on the other hand went back to pounding out the dents in the hood. After fifteen more minutes of pounding I finished the hood, and laid it on a stand for it to be painted later. I walked back to the Jester and looked at it. There was no hood, window shield, front bumpers or fenders. In all honesty, the car looked like a piece of shit. After staring at the car for a few more seconds I decided it was time to put the new window shield in place. You know the thing that Safe Light uses to install those window shields on site, well that's what I was using. I had the glass cupped to the devise as I swerved it to the car. Once in place, I lowered it down. When it was in place I set a seal in the edges so no leaks would happen. With that done I started getting the dents out of the front bumper. An hour and a half later I had finished pounding out the dents as Luna walked into the room.
"Hey boys, what are you doing?" she asked.
"Oh hey Luna, we were just finishing up repairing our cars." Ethan said as he got out from under the car. I watched as he walked up to Luna and gave her a peck on the lips, and again there was that pain in my heart. "What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Oh I just came to check up on you both since you have been in here all day long." she said. I could hear a slight tone of annoyance when she spoke.
"Well im sorry but the cars needed to be repaired and we have been neglecting to do so all week."
"Why not just snap your hands and be done with it?"
"Luna, if I were to do that then there wouldn't be any craftsmanship in the work we did." he said with pride.
"What he means is that he didn't want to be lazy about it." I said as I walked over to them.
"Well how about you two come to dinner in the dining hall?" she asked us. Ethan and I looked at each other before looking at the cars. The Jester still didn't have a hood or bumper but they were repaired and all they needed was a new paint job along with the car. The Sultan just needed to have a new paint job because Ethan fixed everything on his end. 'How'd he do that in such short time?' I mentally asked. We looked back at each other then shrugging. Ethan looked back at Luna.
"Yea I think we can do that seeing how the only thing that needs to be done is the paint." he said with a smile. "Come on Evo, we're done for today."
"Good. Im hungry!" i said as we started walking out the garage. Once we reached the door I turned all the lights off and shut the door behind us. I then felt a chill go up my spine. 'Okay something bads going to happen soon.' I thought as my mental alarms went on. ''But what could happen?' I mentally asked. I pondered what could happen as we walked to the dinning hall. Once we reached the doors I decided not to dwell on the topic much further but would get back to it. 'Oh well i'll worry about it when it happens.' I thought as we walked in the doors.
