The Guardian

Awakward First Date

What do you mean by date, the Guardian asked. "It's when you and whomever else decide to get to know each other better," said the Voice, giggling to herself. What are we supposed to do on this "Date". "Whatever you two want, now come on, we shouldn't be late. They arrived at the park some time later. Stone Blossom was sitting on a bench looking around. She had her suitcase with her. She looked at The Guardian and smiled, waving It over. The Guardian trotted over to the bench and sat down beside her.

"I just love the park at night, don't you?"

It nodded its head.

"So what should we do first? We could catch a film, get something to eat, or head to the Circus in the next town over."

"I like the circus idea," said the Voice.

"Great, we should get a cab there though. It's a bit of a long walk."

They got up together and started walking towards the cobbled street. A taxi pulled into view as they reached the curb. She started waving it down but then noticed that her partner didn't have any pockets. "Hey, you do have a few bits on you right. When It cocked its head she sighed. "Guess were walking then." They ignored the cab driver and walked along the road. "Hey, I bet I can beat you there," she said.

"That sounds like fun," said the Voice, "I'll ask the creatu-," but they were already running.

"Wha-, no fair," she yelled galloping after them.

For awhile It was in the lead, until they were outside the circus tent she teleported in front of them. She was sweating and houghing, but she still was smiling. "You, are a cheater," she said inbetween breaths. "Come on lets head in."

They took their seats near the back. It looked about halfway through the show, but it still was very exciting. Seeing unicorns unleash large magical lightshows, watch pegasi pull off dazzling air manuvers and stunts, and watching some earth ponies perform feats of mighty strength. Stone Blossom looked at the Guardian, and then got very angry. Her date had fallen asleep. She smacked it on the head, jarring It awake. It looked at her. She glared back. Then she started laughing. She never could hold a grudge.

"So how do you like the circus."

"The creature likes it alot."

"Well I think you'll like this better," then she kissed It on where she thought its mouth was. She hadn't noticed before but her date's armor was very cold. She pulled away and It just stared at her. "I'm sorry, did I make you uncomfortable," she asked embarresedly.

"No, but the creature doesn't know what to say right now." Small pause. "It says thank you."

This was a very strange creature, why couldn't It talk, she thought. Then she remembered something horrifying. "I left my suitcase. Sorry but I have to leave now." Then she teleported out of the circus.

"We should probably head back to the castle." They left and went to the train station. The train arrive awhile later and It boarded a train, found an empty seat and slept until they arrived at the castle. Next Chapter: Dreams 2: The Dreamining Estimated time remaining: 15 Minutes
