  1. >The gentle crinkling of plastic wrappers bring you back to the waking world.
  2. >You lay next to Lyra, joining in her midday naps.
  3. >Unfortunately, the first thing you see is not as cozy.
  4. >Staring down the barrel of a gun, your eyes drift towards the owner.
  5. >A middle-aged woman with wild, frazzled hair stares at you with hostility.
  6. >The anger in her eyes match the orange sunset that leaked through the windows.
  7. >”Get up.  Now.”
  8. >Taking care to sneakily elbow the pony you rested on, you rise to your feet.
  9. >You feel her stir a bit, hopefully getting the message.
  10. >Revolver still pointed at you, she tilts her head, motioning you behind her.
  11. >Raising your hands in surrender, you slowly move away from Lyra as the weapon follows your movements.
  12. “I'm not your enemy.”
  13. >She scoffs at your statement as she speaks in a hushed tone.
  14. >”Then why are you sleeping with this, this thing?”
  15. >Matching her volume, you retort.
  16. “Think I have a choice?  Why are you still pointing that gun at me?”
  17. >Gritting her teeth, her brow furrows as she advances on you.
  18. >You move back defensively as she tries to awkwardly swat at you with her free hand.
  19. >She misses as you raise an eyebrow at her feeble attempt to hit you.
  20. >While her free hand was clenched ready to strike again, her gun arm was relaxed to her side.
  21. >Obviously not thinking her actions through, a blush of embarrassment lights up her face.
  22. >”I'm not about to help some traitor, got it?”
  23. >Her attempts to intimidate you again fall on deaf ears as a distinct yellow glow catches your eye.
  24. >You note that she hasn't noticed the dim magic that surrounded her revolver hand.
  25. >A grin spread over your face as you feign drawing a weapon from your back.
  26. >She immediately reacts by attempting to ready her firearm.
  27. >Unfortunately, she found her hand completely immobilized.
  28. >Looking back, Lyra's horn shined with energy as she got off the bench.
  29. >”Don't you dare hurt him.”
  30. >They both stare each other down, Lyra obviously concentrating hard on the woman's gun.
  31. >Realizing the stalemate, you throw yourself at the enemy.
  32. >You throw a closed fist at the girl as she easily sidesteps your swing.
  33. >Still in control of the rest of her body, she knees you in the stomach as you step back weakly from the blow.
  34. >Your lack of combat experience is shows as the assailant prepares another attack.
  35. >Continuing to slowly reel back from the hit, your foot catches on a plastic wrapper.
  36. >Comically slipping on the unsuspecting garbage, your chin meets the ground with a hard thump.
  37. >You look up to see the woman prepare to stomp your head into mush as the sound of heavy hooves shake the ground.
  38. >A blur of sea green eliminates her from view as you hear the girl's body crumple at the force from across the room.
  39. >Room still spinning, you sit up on the ground to gauge the situation.
  40. >Lyra stands over the body of your attacker, presumably unconscious.
  41. >Her hoof disarms the girl as the gun skids away from her hand.
  42. “D-did you get her?”
  43. >She looks up at you with a bit of sadness in her eyes.
  44. >”Yeah, she shouldn't be getting up any time soon after that.”
  45. >You steady yourself as you slowly regain your sense of balance from your fall.
  46. >Joining your friend in looking over the body, Lyra's voice cracks at her next words.
  47. >”You know what's going to happen next, right?”
  48. >A loud sigh is forced from your lungs.
  49. “Yeah, let me just search her to make sure she has nothing else valuable on her.
  50. >She nods as you take a knee to check the body.
  51. >”...if you don't mind, could you strip her of her clothes too?”
  52. >Your eye twitches at her words.
  53. “Yeah... just, give me a bit.”
  54. >A few stray revolver bullets, a flask of god-knows-what and a wallet.
  55. >As you unbutton her pants with one hand, you look at the wallet's contents with the other.
  56. >Money, cards and crumpled receipts.
  57. >No pictures of family, friends or distant relatives.
  58. >Not even a membership card to some campy club.
  59. >Boxed wine appeared to be a recent purchase though.
  60. “Quite the lonely one we have here.”
  61. >Lyra looks over to you, as she packs the leftover goods you both found before you slept.
  62. >”What do you mean?”
  63. >Closing the wallet with dramatic effect, you store it in your back pocket.
  64. >The extra bullets go into an empty front pocket.
  65. >You throw her shirt off, only leaving the girl with her underwear.
  66. “Nothing really, just a human observation.”
  67. >Lifting her onto your shoulder, the surprisingly light body slumps over you peacefully.
  68. >You take a deep breath, knowing full well what you're about to do.
  69. >The unicorn sees the pain in your eyes as she sits down on her haunches.
  70. >”I could do it myself, you don't have to-”
  71. “It's alright.  It's the least I can do for you, especially how you saved me from myself back there.”
  72. >She giggles a bit at the memory as you heave the body over your head.
  73. >Her eyes shine with eagerness as she rolls out the red carpet for her permanent resident.
  74. >You stare into the gaping abyss of her mouth as you ease the body into Lyra's mouth.
  75. >Upon contact of the woman with Lyra's tongue extracted a hum of approval from her.
  76. >Her tongue danced around the underbelly of the girl as she coated her in saliva.
  77. >You avoid contact with the wiggling muscle, not wanting to share the same fate as her.
  78. >Giving one last push, you hop back making sure that Lyra has a good grip on the body.
  79. >Noticing your hesitation, the pony's mouth clamps down on the girl's thighs and stares back at you.
  80. >Her large eyes exude compassion, despite the legs that stuck out from between her lips.
  81. >”You don't have to be afraid, I know how you taste, so I won't accidentally swallow you...”
  82. >Seeing her gulp a few times, the last limbs disappear from her mouth as the distinct bumps of a female crawl beneath her long neck.
  83. >Her hoof beckons you closer as you look at the spectacle.
  84. >”Come on, I could really use a hug right about now.”
  85. >Not eager to disappoint her, you go in close to her as a hoof reaches around you.
  86. >You sit between her legs as the faint lumps pulse from her body.
  87. >With naïve curiosity, you rub the bulges down into Lyra.
  88. >She hugs you in tighter, choking you at the sudden force.
  89. >You tap her hoof, silently telling her of your fragility.
  90. >Her grip loosens slightly as she apologizes.
  91. >”Sorry... mind if you keep doing that?”
  92. >Hesitantly, you start rubbing the large orb that is her stomach.
  93. >As you massage circles around her middle, she slowly leans back onto the floor behind her.
  94. >Her leg takes you with her, as you find yourself on top of her belly.
  95. >Shrugging at her reposition, you slowly dig your knees into her.
  96. >Her faces expresses relief and relaxation as you continue to push into her malleable flesh.
  97. >You hear her body making all sorts of groaning noises as it works away at the meal inside.
  98. >The silky coat gently brushes your fingertips as you press into her.
  99. >Lyra looks at you in affection as a smile snakes its way over her face.
  100. >While her sly look made you smile, it unnerved you all at the same time.
  101. >This person was hostile to both of you, so you don't mind this as much.
  102. >But what if it was a kinder soul?
  103. >You shake these thoughts from your mind as Lyra embraces you once more.
  104. >Holding you close, she gives you an endearing squeeze as your body makes an imprint on hers.
  105. >”Thanks again.  You're such a nice human.”
  106. >Chuckling nervously, you wonder about your relationship with her.
  107. >While she was massive in comparison to you, were you her equal, or her pet?
  108. >A slave perhaps?
  109. >Hopefully the whole “human” thing is just a nickname.
  110. >”We should get going though, can you walk?”
  111. >You slide off of her middle, steadying yourself.
  112. >A little dizzy, but you should be fine.
  113. >Lyra calls out to you in a sing-songy voice.
  114. >”My back's still available for you~”
  115. >She shakes her plump rump right next to your head as she kneels down for you.
  116. “As long as you don't mind...”
  117. >Taking position over her, you hop on up as Lyra takes the bag of goods around her neck.
  118. >”Of course not!  Have to take care of you before we get back home.”
  119. “Wait... home?”
  120. >She levitates the revolver over to you as you hesitatingly grab it.
  121. >”Well... I assume you don't want to stay here, right?”
  122. >Looking out at the streets you once walked from the ransacked bakery, you sigh.
  123. “Anything's better than here, I guess...”
  124. >Lyra's cheery demeanor continues to reflect off her voice.
  125. >”That's the spirit!  I'll get us back to the others in no time!”
  126. >As Lyra trots out of the bakery with a skip in her step, you check the revolver.
  127. >With your limited knowledge, you empty out the revolver after messing around with it.
  128. >You place the bullets into the pocket with the other stray bullets.
  129. >Continuing to play with the empty gun, Lyra looks back at you curiously.
  130. >”Don't you know how to use that thing?”
  131. >Pulling the trigger makes a loud crack, but produces no bullet.
  132. >Lyra cringes at the sound as you continue to look at the mechanisms.
  133. “Firing is easy, I just need to know how to keep both of us safe from any accidents.”
  134. >She looks to you worriedly.
  135. “I emptied the gun out already, so nothing bad will happen when I play with it.
  136. >As you say that, you pull the trigger as the hammer strikes down on your pinky finger.
  137. >You yelp in surprise as you pull your injured finger out.
  138. >She snickers at your condition as you put the affected appendage to your mouth.
  139. “Well... you won't have anything to worry about, I still need to learn this thing.”
  140. >She turns her head back towards the street as she resumes her pace.
  141. >”Well, I believe in you Anon, you'll keep us safe!”
  142. >Too tired to see if she was sarcastic, you continue to play with the weapon as she drives the two of you to your next destination.
