Point of Impact
Chapter 34: Resist
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI stumble into the library, and try to rub the light out of my eyes. The first thing I see is poor Spike cowering in a corner, with what looks like a pot on his head, and a spatula in his hand.
"Um, Spike, you good man?" I ask as I jog over to him.
"Ah! Matt! You have to leave, it isn't safe here!" He quickly runs into the kitchen when he hears something on the stairs. I look up and see Twilight walking down slowly. What the hell was her scared of?
"Oh! Matt! I-I wasn't um... expecting, uh..." She stutters as she slowly approaches me.
"Oh, sorry, I was just dropping by to ask for something. If you're busy I can just come back later."
"NO!... Ahem, I mean, I'm not busy right now. What d-do you n-need?" Odd, why is she stuttering so much? And... is she sweating now?
"I need something to help Rainbow, she's been... how do I put this..."
"In heat? Estrus?" Twilight suddenly spits out.
"Um, yeah. How did you know?"
"No reason..." Her voice just changed very quickly. What the hell... Oh, oh no this isn't good. Yep, there it is. Congrats brain, you just put two and two together! Nice job! Do you want a fucking medal?
"Actually, I think I have something..." I say awkwardly. "Thanks anyway Twilight." I go to open another portal, but the phone flies out of my hand and lands on a bookshelf across the room. D-Did she just fucking levitate my phone!? I spin around, only to have my vision filled by a blur of purple. Now I'm staring deep into Twilight's eyes. Uh oh, there it is. Yep, the same film that went over Rainbow's eyes when she lost control. Time to get the fuck out of here. If Twilight works like Rainbow...
I quickly reach up and grab both of Twilight's wings. She immediately goes limp on top of me and moans. This gives me the chance to push her off of me and run for my phone. I get a grip on the phone, but a pink aura covers it in my hands. This time, I have a good grip on the device, and I am NOT letting go.
"Twilight! You need to resist it! Just let me go, and nobody gets hurt!" I don't want to, but I will retaliate if I need to. No way am I gonna do it with another girl, especially with one of Rainbow's friends. If she ever found out, it would break her. Can't let that happen.
Twilight's magic starts dragging me towards her, but I still have a strong grip on the phone. This is my only ticket out of here, I can't lose it. What if it breaks!? Once I'm close enough, I take a chance. I kick Twilight right under he horn. Not hard enough to hurt her, but hard enough to make her lose focus and she stops trying to get my phone. I full sprint out of the library, and I can hear Twilight screaming for me to come back from her doorway. No way in hell! C'ya later Twilight! Maybe when you aren't trying to get in my pants!
I run a little ways into town before noticing something a little off. No stallions to be seen, only mares. What the hell? I guess the rest of the town is under the same effects as Twilight and Rainbow, but that doesn't explain why there are no dudes around. Are they in hiding or something? Who cares, I have a portal device, and I'm gonna use it. I open the app, and I have the phone pointed at a wall, but I don't get the chance to activate it. A quick vibrate from my phone tells me that the battery just died... Fuck
"Oh, Matt! What a surprise!" I swirl around to see Rarity, as well as the rest of her friends, including Twilight, excluding Rainbow. Once they make my presence known, every mare in the area turns and starts walking towards me. Thanks a fucking lot Rarity, some friend you are. I quickly run in the only open direction that I can see, trying to get away from the fifty-something mares now chasing me at almost double my own speed. Shit, not good, they'll catch me quickly if I don't speed up.
I break into an all out sprint towards Sweet Apple Acres, the only place that had enough wide open land to hide in. I sprint up the dirt trail, sure as hell that I would be grabbed and dragged into some weird ass orgy. Luckily, I was able to gain a good amount of distance on the crowd, and found myself alone in front of Applejack's barn. I quickly looks around for a place to hide, when I hear a whisper from the barn.
"Matt!" I look over and see a little orange head pop out of the barn.
"Scoot!" I quickly run inside and close the door behind me. Just in time too, because the mob just came up the path, and is now searching desperately for me. I turn around, and in the dim light, I see a few ponies that I knew from the show.
"Guys, this is Matt. He probably already knows all of you. He doesn't say how, just don't question it." She says with a grin. Its true, I know them all from the show, but they don't know that. Hiding in the barn is, of course, Scootaloo, as long as her two friends. Then there's Big Mac, and surprisingly, Shining Armor? The hell is he doing here?
"Hey guys, thanks for hiding me." I say as I take in deep breaths and slide down the fall until I've hit then ground.
"So, you know us huh?" Shining Armor walks up to me. "Who am I?"
"You're Shining Armor, Twilight's brother. You're a royal guard in Canterlot, a captain actually. You're wife is Princess Cadence, and she used to foalsit Twilight. That good enough for you, or shall I continue?" The look on all of their faces was enough to make up for the run here. I almost instantly burst out laughing uncontrollably.
"Y-You must have talked to my sister, there is NO way you know all of that about me. I've never met you!"
"Like I said, don't question it, he has his ways of knowing stuff." Scoot says with a laugh.
"Wait... I think I've heard about you... Matthew Green was it?" Armor asks with a face of curiosity.
"Yep, guy who kept Rainbow Dash safe on Earth?"
"Yeah! You're the guy! My sister has told me so much about you. She really is grateful to you, you know that right?"
"Of course, I talk to her often... Turns out today wasn't a good day for that huh? She tried to get all up on me."
"That's actually why I'm here. I came down to Ponyville to see if I couldn't help her get through this. She normally doesn't act up around me since I'm her brother, so I thought I would be able to help out. I didn't even get to her house before I was swarmed and got trapped in here.
"Wait, why are you three in here?" I point to Scootaloo and her two friends.
"We don't even know why we're hiding in here. Mah brother just told us to stay in here with him for a while." I look up at Big Mac, and he quickly walks over to me.
"They're too young to be affected yet. They're also too young to know about Estrus, so don't talk about it too much." He whispers in my ear. Gees, that might be the most I've ever heard him talk. In the show its always just like one or two words from him.
"Hey, Armor, could you do something for me?" I say as I fish my dead phone out of my pocket. I show it to him. "Can you generate a certain wattage of electricity into an object?"
"I suppose I could try. What is this for exactly?" I says as he takes the phone in his magic and eyes it curiously.
"The energy in my device ran out before I could use it to go home. Is there any way you can charge it up? If you do, I can get us all out of here."
"I can try..." He concentrates on the phone, and closes his eyes. A few seconds later, a small bolt of electricity makes its way into the charging port on the bottom of the phone. Nothing happens at first, so he pushes more energy into it. It takes a while, but once he gets the right voltage, he hold it there as the phone screen comes to life. It fills up rather quickly, reaching 100% in a matter of seconds.
"Alright! Now we're getting somewhere!" I realize my mistake a little too late. I peak out a crack in the barn door to see all of the mares running towards to source of my voice. They start pounding on the locked doors like something out of the Walking Dead.
"Quick! Go!" I open up a portal that leads to a park on the other side of town. That should give them time to find another place to hide for now. They all thank me before running through. I close the portal, and get ready to open my own. The door bursts down, and fresh sunlight pours in over the masses of ponies trying to barrel their way towards me. I panic and fumble my phone around before opening a portal on the ground. First time I did that, I only thought it worked on walls! I see a picture of my bedroom and jump down into it. Everything is gone in a flash.
I open my eyes to see my room. I sigh in relief as I realize how lucky I am to make it out of all of that without a scratch. Surely they would have torn me to shreds.
Ugh... I can already hear Rainbow moaning from the bathroom. She must be at it again. I think she loves that shampoo bottle more than me to be honest. I laugh at my own joke and plop down on the bed. Damn that running tired me out. Time for nap.
Night!
