- Day 2
- >You awake from your slumber
- >Mind groggy and body sore
- >A quick look at the ceiling
- >You didn't even make it to your bedroom
- >sitting upwards
- >Your covers sliding downwards
- >It brings a smile to your face
- >Futashy making sure you were comfortable before leaving
- >Pulling the covers off completely,
- >you do your best to stand up
- >The aftermath of heavy drinking hitting you square in the jaw
- Oh.. man
- >Lifting your hand to rub your eyes
- >Your head slightly pulsing from the change in height
- >Minus the hangover, you felt different.
- >Can't pinpoint why though
- >You shrug it off
- Maybe I finally got lucky with Rarity
- >You chuckle to yourself
- >yeah right
- >Walking over to the sink
- >you wash your face and take a look at the time
- >Surprising
- >Your train leaves in half an hour
- >Luckily it's short walk there
- >You also had your bits and clothes already sent through
- >Taking your covers to your bedroom
- >You take a quick look around the house
- >It will be the last time you will ever sleep here.
- >Good riddens
- >Making your way to the train station now
- >Some of your final goodbyes with the towns ponies
- >Walking up to the train
- >You hand your ticket to the ticket master
- >He nods and you board
- >Taking an empty seat with the window pointing away from Ponyville
- >You don't want any memories of the town to bother you
- >Years of hard work were about to pay off
- >No regrets
- >The doors close and the train jumps into motion
- >You breath out a small sigh
- >your gaze focusing on the surroundings as the train moves
- >Each hill passing as you fantasize about the future
- >Tall buildings
- >Pleasent areas
- >Peace and harmony
- >You're damn pleased with yourself
- >You did all of this work
- >Against the odds
- >Even your ruler attempting to hold you back
- >She would have never thought you could make so much
- >Well, neither did you at first
- >But these ponies lacked so many inventions
- >Relying on either hard work or magic
- >You improved their lives
- >Maybe you can bring some of those things to other towns
- >Could be one of the greatest inventors of all history
- >With that thought, you rest your head on the window
- >A small nap would do just fine
- >The rumble snaps you awake
- >Opening your eyes and stretching
- >The train is currently going through a tunnel
- >Looking to the front you can see it near the end
- >With a ploom of light emitting the surrounding
- >You see it
- >There in all of its not so distant glory
- >Having only been able to see the area from afar
- >It looked stunning.
- >Towering buildings
- >Hanging off to the side with amazing confidence
- >Countless waterfalls flowing in unison
- >Each structure looking almost brand new
- >This was now your home
- >The train passes the initial guards
- >Coming to a halt at the station
- >With the train whistle, you stand up
- >Stepping off the train
- >The feeling was damn perfect
- >Air being slightly on the cold side
- >With the sun making up for it with the heat
- >There was no need to stay around
- >You pull out your map and begin walking toward the Hotel
- >It would be a few months before your house is built.
- >The Canterlot fee is a weekly withdrawal
- >Celestia really wanted to make it as annoying as possible
- >Shrugging
- >At least the scenery made up for it
- >After getting lost a few times, you make it to the hotel
- >The most expensive and luxurious in all of Equestria
- >Parts of the building extending beyond sight.
- >You crack a smile
- >Rewarding yourself with a compliment
- Well deserved Anon
- >You walk to the front counter
- >The bits you sent already secured in their vault
- >With a quick signature, you were assigned a room.
- >It was quite a walk to your room
- >But finally you arrive
- >Tired and somehow still slightly hungover
- >Room 117
- >Releasing the lock with your key
- >You open the door
- >The room shined with perfection
- >Best of the best furniture on display
- >A moonbutt sized bed made just for you
- >Your clothes all packed and prepared
- >Shutting the door behind you
- >Walking forth and taking a fall on the bed
- >It was incredibly soft.
- >Almost as if magic was altering the material around you
- >Looking forward you can see past the balcony
- >A clear shot to the beauties of the land below
- >That's a sight to see, I should really check it out
- >But.. you didn't want to move
- >Maybe I'll just head to bed early
- >It was relatively late and you were still a little weak from before
- >Rolling over you were prepared to fall asleep
- >Screw getting undressed, too much work.
- >Your eyes were already closed
- >Ready to let your body rest
- >A knock on the door can be heard
- >Ah dangit
- >I don't want to get up...
- >With a little grump, you lean forward and stand
- >Walking to the door
- >Hopefully it's just a welcoming gift or something
- >Opening the door, you look down
- >WhatTheFuck?
- ...
- >Did she really follow you?
- Futashy?
- >"Oh good anon!"
- >How did she even know
- Futashy what are you-
- >"It took forever to find your room"
- >She's walking toward you
- >You're matching the same speed backwards
- >"I had to knock on so many doors"
- >You stop
- >"Those last ponies were so mean too"
- >Not paying attention, she bumps into you
- >Looking up at you with a smile
- >Turning to a frown, realizing yours is that of anger
- What are you doing here...
- >"Oh uhm.."
- >"I wanted to be with you"
- >This hotel doesn't allow you to walk freely through the rooms
- >It's a pay or get out deal
- But how?
- >"well I payed for the train ticket"
- >"Then I had to pay for a room"
- No I mean how did you get the money
- >"oh I.."
- >A little remorse on her face
- >"I sold the cottage"
- >You look at her in disbelief
- >As much as she loved you
- >She really loved her animals
- >You kneel down to her height
- Shy.. Why would you do that
- >"I wanted to be with you.."
- >"You're so important to me"
- >She tries to look confident
- >"And you need somep0ny to take care of you"
- >You sigh
- >As mad as you are at seeing her
- >She needed some help
- You can't stay with me
- >"But I-"
- >You cut her off
- No negotiations
- >Ears flattening
- >She lowers her head
- Now, show me how many bits you have
- >I'll have to make up any missing to buy her home back
- >Grabbing at her pack, she lifts out a small sack
- >This surely can't be it?
- >Opening it, you start counting only to stop halfway through
- Is... is this it?
- >She nods her head
- >"The pony knew I was in a rush"
- >"He was so kind to help me out"
- >You don't even want to continue counting
- >This was hardly enough to eat for a few months
- >She's been tricked into selling her house for almost nothing
- >A greedy merchant seizing the perfect opportunity
- >She's just staring at you blankly
- >Unknowing of what she should do
- >Just awaiting your response
- >You snicker
- >Damnit...
- >I'm really going to have to pay for her house
- >You stand up and walk to a nearby desk
- >Grabbing a small bit request note
- >Walking back toward Futashy
- Go to the counter
- >You talk while writing your signature down
- And withdraw the amount you originally bought the house with
- >That merchant wouldn't settle for a bit less
- >"Anon I.. I don't want to go back"
- >"We can only be happy together"
- >Her large blue eyes staring at you
- >Red at the side from the stress she is under
- >It almost made you want to tear up
- You need to go back
- >"Anon, but we can-"
- No Futashy, please.
- >Wimpering at the orders
- Please... go back
- >You hand her the note
- >"I..."
- >She pauses
- >"Ok" Her head lowering
- >She turns around and leaves the room
- >Walking at an almost nonexistent pace
- >Probably hoping you would stop her
- >She clears the doorway and continues walking down the hall
- >Not even bothering to close the door behind her
- >Stepping forward, you shut the door
- >breathing out a huge sigh
- >You walk back and fall on your bed once more
- >Hardly able to believe the events that just occurred
- >Futashy selling her property to be with you
- >And now you will be paying for it
- >You groan at the realization
- >That was an eighth of your money walking out the door
- >You'll have to make that up somehow...
- >Eh
- >There are still plenty of inventions to work on
- >Maybe it will keep you busy until your home is finished
- >You start to laugh
- >Whatever can go wrong, will
- >Murphy is probably laughing in unison
- >your laughing subsides
- >Closing your eyes
- >Sleep quickly overtaking your body
- End day 2
