Cut Above The Rest
Chapter 20: Desires and shenanigans
Previous Chapter Next ChapterTreble's father walked down the streets of the inner city of Canterlot, heading to his current place of residence. He reached a large building with his company's emblem, a black cat, on the top. Walking through the front doors he was greeted by the security officers and various music artists that his company had discovered and was making profit off of.
He reached the back room where a large group of his hired thugs, not all of them huge and muscular mind you, were waiting. "Thank you for coming gentlemen."
"So boss, who's the scumbag we need to beat the living crap out of this time?" Asked a skinny tall man in a business suit. He had a cigar in his mouth and his dirty blonde hair covered a portion of his face as he slouched.
"The 'scumbag' you speak of is my son, Jegger, and you are not to beat him to a pulp, maybe ruff him up a bit, but not fatal or permanent damage are we clear?" He ordered with an authoritative tone.
"Transparently..."
"But before you do any of that, I need you to do one thing." All the thugs looked at him expectedly. "Capture his friends and play with them as you like."
Sunset sat in the living room of her shared little house watching TV while her boyfriend was upstairs washing himself in the shower. She tapped her fingers on her lap as she contemplated on whether or not to go take a peek or just leave it alone, but a very persuasive voice in her head was telling her to go have a look. You know the voice, the voice that every teenager has in their heads that tell them to do... things. You may not hear it but it's there.
"Come on Sunset, he's your boyfriend, you're aloud to see him like that."
"It's still too early for that kinda thing though."
"Remember the three date rule? On the night of the third date that's when things start to get serious, you've been on eight dates."
"No, I'm not doing it."
"Are you sure? You don't wanna see his strong muscles shinning with sweat? You don't wanna see his gorgeous chest and abs? You don't want him to hold his skin against yours?"
"I'm hungry again aren't I?"
"Like you would not believe, you've been busy thinking about whether or not to get it on with your boyfriend to notice."
Biting her lip and looking up at the stairs she gave in. "I suppose one little peek couldn't hurt."
"Atta girl Sunset!"
It has come to my attention that Sunset has been portrayed a bit too out of character with all of these sexual thoughts, as of which I will turn down the sex humour and focus more on our main character and his friends. The relationship with Sunset will still be focuses on but to a lesser extent, it is only a part of what this story is about.
A few moments later
Sunset had her back to the wall in the hallway, holding her nose as it started to bleed at what she had seen, thoughts rushing to her head while she tried to control herself. "Rarity was right... It is glorious."
Treble, Hack, Casino, Ocean, Silver and Solar all stood with their arms crossed as they looked up at the huge tree that was now home to the CMCs kite, stuck in the leaves.
"So, any ideas on how to get it down?" Hack asked as he looked to his friends.
"We could chop down the tree and sell it to a logging company to get some money as well as the kite back." Suggested Silver.
"Nah too much paperwork." Ocean scratched his chin as he looked around. "It's way to tall to climb, and the leaves would get in the way anyways."
"Hold on! I have an idea!" Hack shot off and came running back with a huge pole. He as he approached the tree he stabbed one end into the ground and flung himself up at the tree. However he missed his target and ended up in the leaves, falling from branch to branch. The guys all winced at the sound of each individual branch breaking until Hack fell to the ground filled with splinters and covered in leaves. "Ok, not my greatest plan."
"Yeah well it was fun to watch." Solar commented, he looked to Casino who was filming the whole thing. "Oh sweet you gonna upload that to YouTube?"
"Yeah I'll send ya a link after I finish editing it a tad."
Hack glared at his friends. "You guys are the worst."
"We love ya too Hack." Everyone but Treble replied.
A few moments later Casino was on top of giant stilts approaching the tree. "Aha, nature, we meet again." As he was about to grab the kite he realised that the stilts were tipping as a breeze kicked in. "Shit..." With that he fell back. As he looked up he found Hack recording it.
"Feels painful doesn't it?"
The next attempt was all of the guys, save for Treble who was trying to think of a better way, formed a ladder and were wobbling around with Silver on the bottom and Casino on the top. As expected they all toppled over, looking back to see Treble recording.
The next attempt was Solar using his nerf gun to shoot it down. As he aimed the gun and pulled the trigger, the dart flew out but was blown right back in by the wind. "AH COME ON!!!" They all began to do various, and completely random, things to get the cursed kite down. As the group lay on the ground, bruised and exhausted they looked back to see Treble walking up with the kite.
"How... In the bloody hell... Did ya get that thing down?" Treble pointed to a ladder leading up to a treehouse that they hadn't noticed on the side of the huge tree trunk. "Fuck... You... Treble!"
Treble shrugged and handed the kite back to Sweetie Belle and her friends.
