So Luna and me talked for about a few hours before she had to leave."Well thanks for visiting me Princess Luna. It is always nice to have someone to talk to." I said as she got up.
"Thee has only been here for a day and thou is acting like thine's life is nothing beyond these bars!" She said with a giggle.
"Sorry. This place is just SOOO boring." I said with a dramatic flop onto my bed. She laughed after that and I joined her in the hilarity.Soon I was on the floor laughing and she was doing her best not to fall down like me. "Okay, but honestly it was nice seeing you again." I stated with a few chuckles.
She smiled and walked to the front of the cell. "Well we had fun talking to you as well. We hope that when this whole ordeal is over you may join us in a day of relaxation." She said with a smile.
"So basically...you wanna hang out after the trial?" I stated with a smirk. She blushed and nodded."I would love to princess. It is always nice to hangout with friends!"
"Good we shall see the after tomorrows affairs." With that she gleefully skipped out of the prison and I laid down.As I laid down I took my trench coat off and attempted to get some sleep. I was rudely awoken by some one screaming at the top of their lungs.
"LET GO OF ME YOU SON OF A WHORE!!" It sounded female, but raspy and REALLY pissed off. Soon I heard my cell door open and someone was thrown in. "I AM GOING TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU GUARDS!! YOU HEAR ME!?" The voice bellowed once more.
I opened one eye and saw one pissed off griffon."The buck you looking at?" She said. I just shrugged and closed my eyes again. "Oh a smart flank huh? Well I can fix that." I heard claws scrapping against the ground as she neared me.
I kept my cool for the most part until she got to edge of my bed. I gently opened my eyes to see her with her fist raised high in the air. "I wouldn't do that if I was you." I said with a frown and she lowered her talon. She then aggressively pulled me off the bed with both of her claws and attempted to pin me to the floor by gripping and pinning my forearms. She smirked as she thought that she had me beat and said.
"Oh? and why is that?" You could practically see the arrogance dripping from the words as they left her mouth. I shook my head.
"This is why." I replied as I used my knee to knock her knees out. Her face went from confused to scared really fast. After her legs gave way I ripped my arms from her grasp, Although my arms got slightly mangled by her talons, and she collapsed onto my chest. I then flipped the situation causing me to gain the advantage. Placing my hands on her forelegs and my knees on her wings. Then I whistled to Arrowhead and he coiled around her hind legs. Her face was now absolutely terrified now.
"Wasn't expecting that huh?" I said with a toothy grin, attempting to scare her with mine canines. It worked somewhat as she fidgeted when I smiled.
"How the hell did you do that?! I had the advantage!!" She angrily yelled in my face. I merely shook my head and snickered.
"Oh little griffon you have no advantage unless you know what you were doing. Which you did not." I said with a smirk. "Now I am going to let you up and place you on the top bunk. Go call for some bandages for my arm. Then I am going to sleep because I have a trial tomorrow mkay? Good."
I got off her and did as I said. Placed her on the bed, called for bandages and waited for them. As I was waiting that short tempered griffon was watching me.
"You still haven't told me how you did that." She finally spoke. I turned to her. As I did I saw the damage her claws had done. They were long scrapes along my arms, but they weren't very deep. I groaned as the adrenaline faded and pain became very apparent really quick.
"It is a simple thing really. Just the weight difference between us. You weigh probably no more than 80 pounds and I weigh about 125 pounds. Plus you had no strategy what-so-ever. All you DID have was a plan to intimidate and pin me down." I summarized. After my little chat a nurse pony came to the front of our cell and gently tapped on the bars.
"H-h-hello. M-my name is n-nurse Band-Aid. I-I am here T-to help." This little pony was a small yellow pony with a gentle rose mane that fell over her shoulder. Her cutie-mark was a pair Band-aids crossed over each other making a X.
I bent down on my knees and looked the pony in the eyes. "Hey there. My name is slayer and I am the one who called for your assistance. I would like to ask you to please hurry because the pain is a real bother right now." I said with a slightly pained expression and raising my arms to show her. She almost immediately perked up when she saw my arms.
"Oh my celestia!! Your arms are in terrible shape! Please place them threw the bars and I shall fix them up." She said in a light panic. I complied and she went straight to work. After a few minutes my arms were bandaged and stiched up. The nice nurse pony gave me some pain pills and told me to get some rest.
"I shall be back before your trial to check on your wounds. Now get some sleep and I will be back in the morning!" She said with a small smile and began to walk away.
" Oh nurse!" I quickly yelled out. She turned and galloped back as if I just died. "I just wanted to say thanks. For fixing me up that is." I finished with a smile. She breathed a sigh of relief and return the smile. After she redid her goodbyes and I looked to see of the griffon had fallen asleep. Luckily she had, so that meant I could get a good night's rest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today was the day of my trial and to be honest....I wasn't all that worried. I did nothing, but defend my friends and had every right to do so. Although...this isn't america. 'oh well I might as well face the music.' I thought as I heard some hoof steps coming down the hall. Not to my surprise the nice nurse from last night was coming down the hall.
"Good morning Slayer! Did you sleep good? How are your arms?" She said as she gestured for me to come closer. I complied and showed her my arms.
"They are really sore, but none the less better." I responded. She poked and prodded before nodding her head in approval. I grabbed my coat and walked out of the cell as they opened it. I walked out and the guards cuffed me. The guards flanked me and began to walk me out of the prison. Then after we got out of the prison and began to make our way a, What I presume was a, servant pony stopped us and she handed the guard to my right a letter. She gave us some apologies and left to go do...what ever it was she was going to do. The guard grunted and hand the letter over to the other guard who browsed it over. They both looked at me and nodded. The guard on the right took out a key and took off my cuffs on my wrist while the other took the cuffs of my legs.
"Follow me." The left guard said and trotted down the hall way. Soon we were at these GIANT doors that had a symbol of a sun and a symbol of a moon. "Enter. They are waiting for you." He said as he took position by the door as his associate took the opposite side.
"Wait who?" I asked. No response. "So I just have to find out myself huh?" I got a grunt from them. "Greeeeeat."
I walked in to see a large circular table with a small pillow every placed every few feet around it. I simply walked over and sat down on to the nearest pillow and sat down. I waited and waited for about...I don't know, but it was a long time I assure you.
"Ah slayer. Sorry we are late, but the court was a little back up." I turned to see Luna standing in front of the door with a slightly larger white(with a small pink hue) pony that looked very similar to Luna, in physical features anyway. This new pony wore a cross between a necklace and a breastplate with a large purple gem in the middle. She also wore tiara much like Luna's only...bigger. Luna walked over and gave me a small hug. As I returned the hug the larger pony watched EVERY move I made. After a few moments she let go with a big smile.
"How art thee slayer?" Luna asked with that smile still apparent.
"Heh I'm good thanks for asking. Only thing wrong is my arms are killing me." I said as I gently rubbed them threw my coat. Luna went with a confused expression as she responded.
"What is wrong with thine arms?" she asked as she inspected my coated arm. I sighed and pulled up my coat sleeve up. She and the larger pony gasped as I reveled the bandages. They were slightly bloody. While Luna inspected my bandages the larger pony came over. As she neared me I saw how large she was. Instead of me being taller I was eye to eye with this strange pony.
"Oh we are sorry, we have not introduced you to our sister yet! Slayer this is Celestia. Celestia this is Slayer. He is the one that was supposed to be going to that trial." Luna said. I looked quizzically at her.
"What do you mean 'supposed to be going to'? I thought this is what I was waiting for." I said with my own confused face.
"I believe I can answer that." Celestia said. I turned to her and she began. "While I was listening to the story you told Luna I noticed it was almost identical to all the other versions I was told by your friends. All except one, or three to be specific. They were told by the three pegasi that accused you and your stories were extremely different. In theirs you were being snide, rude, and down right cruel." I sighed slightly angrily and nodded for her to continue. "While in your story and your friends stories you were brave, heroic, and completely reasonable. Luna and I scanned everyone who gave a story to see if they were lying. Only the pegasi were caught lying. So when you trial was to happen we sent a servant to get you and to get the guards to grab the pegasi instead of you. That is why you were 'supposed to go'." She finished. I just stood there in complete awe about how they so skillfully got the real culprits instead of having to do a long trial to figure it out. I only muttered one word.
"Wow..." Luna giggled and Celestia smiled. I smiled back and held out my hand. "Well thank you very much princess Celestia. This is a massive weight off my shoulders." The princess placed her hoof in my palm and we shook hand and hoof.
"It is alright. I am just trying to keep the peace and help Luna keep her friends out of the jail." She said with a half-hearted chuckle. I chuckled with a little nervousness in my voice. "Now may you tell Luna and me why your arms in this shape?" She inquired.
"Well my cellmate was looking for a fight and decided to pick one with the thing that is twice her size. Well it actually wasn't really a fight. It was more or less me overpowering her and scaring her." I said with a shrug. They both nodded and Luna gave me a look that practically screamed 'I NEED TO ASK YOU SOMETHING, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW!!'. I turned towards her and asked.
"Hey Luna you have been pretty quiet. You okay?" She seemed to perk up at this.
"Well..." She began. "We were wondering if thee wanted to 'Hang out' as you called it." She slightly fidgeted in place as she talked. I placed a hand on my chin and thought for a moment.
"Sure I would love to, but what about this whole ordeal? I mean do I just get a form or something saying that this happened?" Celestia just shook her head and chuckled.
"No you don't slayer. All you have to do is sign a paper saying that you never committed the crime or will in the near future." She informed me. I nodded and smiled.
"In that case Luna I would love to hang out with you. Although I would like to see my friends before hand." I said while I pulled my sleeves back to wrists.
"Alright slayer. I'll go get the form. Be right back." Celestia said while leaving. I sat back down on the pillow again while luna sat by me.
'These were the craziest days of my life...At least when I skype my friend I'll have something to tell them.' I thought as I leaned my head back and sighed.
